The new owner of Plymouth Argyle is taking legal action after

:00:13.:00:18.

allegations that his emails were hacked in to. Good evening. Peter

:00:18.:00:20.

Ridsdale's action follows a newspaper article when he was at

:00:20.:00:27.

Cardiff City. Also tonight. Paying for a road which hasn't been built.

:00:27.:00:30.

Why taxpayers are being asked for millions more to keep bypass plans

alive. Plugged into the sun. Cornwall's first solar farm is

:00:35.:00:45.
:00:45.:00:45.

supplying electricity to the grid. I am on the water in Plymouth Sound

:00:45.:00:48.

for the Plymouth race week, it starts today and I will have

:00:48.:00:54.

details. And the full forecast. The owner of Plymouth Argyle, Peter

:00:54.:00:57.

Ridsdale, says he's taking legal action against the News of World.

:00:57.:01:00.

He claims it used information obtained when his email account was

:01:00.:01:03.

allegedly hacked into. He's seeking damages from the paper following an

:01:03.:01:06.

article it published last year. The News of the World announced this

:01:06.:01:13.

afternoon that it will close this Sunday. This was Peter Risdale

:01:13.:01:18.

during his time as Cardiff City chairman. It was during his four-

:01:18.:01:21.

year spell there and before he had any connection with Plymouth Argyle

:01:21.:01:26.

that these hacking allegations stem from. He was alerted when the News

:01:26.:01:33.

of the World published an article in January of last year. He says

:01:33.:01:36.

some of the material in it could only have come from documents

:01:36.:01:39.

obtained illegally. Mr Ridsdale believes his email account was

:01:39.:01:43.

hacked into. He was locked out of it because the password had been

:01:43.:01:51.

changed without his knowledge. number of us, myself and others,

:01:51.:01:56.

undertake a job at work which happens to be high profile and I

:01:56.:02:00.

understand that that impinges on the way in which one can conduct

:02:00.:02:04.

their private life but it does not give people total access to

:02:04.:02:11.

everything you do. And it does not allow them to invade my privacy.

:02:11.:02:14.

Ridsdale's lawyer has confirmed they are in correspondence with the

:02:14.:02:17.

News of the World to see if they are prepared to reach a settlement.

:02:17.:02:20.

If not, legal proceedings will be issued shortly. The paper wouldn't

:02:20.:02:23.

make any comment as it is still checking details about the case.

:02:23.:02:26.

This is different to the high- profile cases at the moment

:02:26.:02:29.

involving the News of the World which relate to mobile phones being

:02:29.:02:33.

hacked into. While this all happened before Mr Ridsdale arrived

:02:33.:02:37.

here at Home Park, it shows the legacy of his time at Cardiff

:02:37.:02:41.

remains. Another reminder comes later this month when he is due in

:02:41.:02:43.

court there to answer two charges under unfair trading regulations

:02:43.:02:53.
:02:53.:02:55.

and one under the Fraud Act. He has indicated he'll plead not guilty.

:02:55.:02:58.

Despite today's announcement that the News of the World will close,

:02:58.:03:02.

was say that legal actions like Mr rates bill's will still be able to

:03:03.:03:12.
:03:13.:03:14.

go ahead. -- Mr Ridsdale's. Earlier I spoke to Plymouth solicitor

:03:14.:03:17.

Stephen Ramsden. I asked him how an alleged victim of email hacking

:03:17.:03:19.

should pursue a legal case. would have to act quickly because

:03:19.:03:23.

he might be able to stop the e-mail being transmitted any further and

:03:23.:03:27.

her information being passed on. He has to act quickly by perhaps

:03:27.:03:31.

taking out an injunction, an order of the court, stopping for the use

:03:31.:03:35.

of e-mail and once you have done that you can think about what

:03:35.:03:39.

damage it has done and the law will allow you to be compensated for any

:03:39.:03:43.

damage that you have suffered. You have to prove that damage and you

:03:43.:03:46.

need to take specialist advice and there might be a criminal offence,

:03:46.:03:51.

you might be to contact the police and that might be a quicker remedy

:03:51.:03:54.

to stopping anything being transmitted further because

:03:54.:03:58.

accessing information might also be a criminal offence. If you have

:03:58.:04:03.

sent that e-mail or on or someone else has sent you e-mail to a third

:04:03.:04:07.

party, how much control do you have over the original content? Very

:04:07.:04:12.

little. That's the problem. Your e- mails can be forwarded around the

:04:12.:04:16.

world in seconds. That is a practical difficulty. You do have a

:04:16.:04:21.

fairly large degree of control, you have the right to privacy under

:04:22.:04:25.

English law and people should not misuse private information about

:04:25.:04:29.

you. But that is a legal nicety in practice. If you have transmitted

:04:29.:04:33.

it and it has been re transmitted, you probably have no practical

:04:33.:04:38.

control over what happens to that information. People use e-mail and

:04:38.:04:42.

social media all the time to send information and talk about people.

:04:42.:04:49.

How well is a lot keeping up with that growing access? Hopelessly.

:04:49.:04:54.

The short answer. A lot of these organisations are in by companies

:04:54.:04:57.

that are overseas and they are not subject to English law so it's well

:04:57.:05:01.

and good saying I have a right under English law to protection but

:05:01.:05:05.

how can you enforce that if the people who have the information or

:05:05.:05:09.

know how it's being used are based in California? It is often not do

:05:09.:05:12.

their goodwill and professional approach as to whether they will

:05:12.:05:16.

reveal information themselves. That might involve them disclosing

:05:16.:05:19.

confidential information about their customers, for example.

:05:19.:05:26.

you. Taxpayers across Devon are being asked to find a further �23

:05:26.:05:29.

million to fund the long-awaited South Devon Link Road. Both Torbay

:05:29.:05:32.

and Devon councils say they need to increase their contributions if the

:05:32.:05:39.

Kingskerswell Bypass is ever to go ahead. It's a classic bottleneck,

:05:39.:05:44.

and this problem has existed for over 60 years. Torbay Council

:05:44.:05:53.

considers a bypass as its number one infrastructure priority. We had

:05:53.:05:56.

the weakest economy in the south- west and consistent and employment

:05:56.:06:01.

for many years. And only better communications will lift us out of

:06:01.:06:05.

this. It is a major step change for the economy. Blue Chip Holidays is

:06:05.:06:08.

a business which started in Brixham. It spent six months trying to

:06:08.:06:12.

attract the right staff, but the company believes the road link was

:06:12.:06:14.

getting in the way. Eventually it opened another office in Exeter,

:06:14.:06:21.

creating 20 jobs that should have gone to Torbay. If you imagine you

:06:21.:06:24.

have children to pick up from school and maybe you can get to

:06:24.:06:28.

work bouquet but if you are missing the pick up time for children, that

:06:28.:06:33.

is a significant thing and that isn't good work life balance.

:06:33.:06:35.

Kingskerswell Alliance opposes the bypass plans. The group has

:06:35.:06:38.

commissioned experts who have come up with a cheaper alternative using

:06:38.:06:44.

the existing road. Improve the junctions, the transport links and

:06:44.:06:47.

introduce tidal flow. Similar to the system used in the Saltash

:06:47.:06:52.

tunnel. If they are investigated in a positive manner, we believe that

:06:53.:06:58.

could achieve many of the objectives set for the bypass. At a

:06:58.:07:01.

cost saving of roughly half the cost of the road. It's similar to

:07:01.:07:04.

the system used in the Saltash tunnel. So will a bypass make a

:07:04.:07:07.

difference? In recent years new roads have been built at Dobwalls

:07:07.:07:10.

and Gossmoor in Cornwall following strong campaigns. It is tens of

:07:10.:07:15.

millions. Tourism is big business, billions in the south-west. It's

:07:15.:07:21.

made up of lots of little individual decisions from customers

:07:21.:07:24.

and they are based on the experiences they have and if they

:07:24.:07:27.

get stuck in traffic jams, especially more than once, it

:07:27.:07:31.

becomes famous that it's a bad spot, like with Gossmoor. That deters

:07:31.:07:36.

people from coming. The problem of the road is its unpredictability.

:07:36.:07:40.

At a good time you can get from one end to the other in nine minutes

:07:40.:07:46.

but when busy it can take over one hour. The question is, is it worth

:07:46.:07:53.

spending �23 million to try to make it happen? Talks are already

:07:53.:07:55.

underway with Exeter Airport about providing flights for

:07:55.:07:57.

businesspeople if Plymouth Airport shuts down. Yesterday, Air South

:07:57.:08:00.

West announced its flights will have to operate from Newquay during

:08:00.:08:03.

August due to problems with military radar. Plymouth Airport

:08:03.:08:08.

has already announced it plans to close for good in December.

:08:08.:08:10.

Campaigners fighting to keep Brixham coastguard station open

:08:10.:08:15.

have handed in a petition at Westminster. Brixham is under

:08:15.:08:18.

threat following government plans to scale down the number of

:08:18.:08:23.

coastguard stations around the country. You're watching Spotlight.

:08:23.:08:28.

Still ahead in the programme. To the world he was romantic novelist

:08:28.:08:33.

Emma Blair. We look back at the life of Iain Blair, the man behind

:08:33.:08:40.

the pen. And find out what I have been doing at Hartland Abbey on

:08:40.:08:47.

Spotlight. Keep watching. Cornwall's first commercial solar

:08:47.:08:49.

energy farm has begun feeding electricity into the grid. The

:08:49.:08:52.

developers say the solar array at Wheal Jane near Truro will produce

:08:52.:09:02.

1.4 megawatts of electricity a year, or enough to power around 400 homes.

:09:02.:09:05.

They're a striking addition to the Cornish landscape and soon solar

:09:05.:09:11.

farms could become as familiar as wind farms. At the old Wheal Jane

:09:11.:09:14.

tin mine, more than 5,000 solar panels are now generating

:09:14.:09:22.

electricity to feed the national grid. Cornwall's new solar farms

:09:22.:09:28.

such as this one near Fraddon will make an impact on the landscape. To

:09:28.:09:32.

benefit from the Government tariff they must be in place by August but

:09:32.:09:38.

there might be as many as 10 solar farms by them. This is an enormous

:09:38.:09:43.

potential source of free, clean energy so it would be insane if we

:09:43.:09:47.

did not happen to that. Other countries have. We're definitely

:09:48.:09:51.

playing catch-up and small community schemes, whether it's in

:09:51.:09:58.

a warehouse for a church or the school, it should be encouraged.

:09:58.:10:00.

Cornwall Council had high hopes that there would be community

:10:00.:10:03.

benefits from the farms, but then the government changed the feed in

:10:03.:10:12.

tariffs. They want communities to feel that these are for them and

:10:12.:10:15.

that is why the council has been working with developers to get

:10:15.:10:19.

money back into the communities from these Simon Parkes. We would

:10:19.:10:22.

have had more if the Government did not change the plans and that would

:10:22.:10:26.

have meant communities across Cornwall would get even up to �1

:10:26.:10:30.

million for the community over the lifetime of these solar panels.

:10:30.:10:32.

Small-scale renewable power generation is being marketed as an

:10:32.:10:35.

ethical investment opportunity by Community Power Cornwall. Its

:10:35.:10:38.

current share offer has already raised more than �60,000 from

:10:38.:10:47.

individuals. The programme started four years ago with communities

:10:47.:10:50.

coming forward and wanting to develop projects and we needed to

:10:50.:10:53.

work out a baby could get them through planning and get them

:10:53.:10:56.

permitted and then get the finance and that is really what led to this

:10:56.:11:05.

development. It is a reaction to the committees, for with an need.

:11:05.:11:08.

- coming forward with an need. Cornwall has taken a lead on

:11:08.:11:11.

renewable energy, but increasingly it's supporting local and community

:11:11.:11:15.

power schemes. We've had a big response from you on the issue of

:11:15.:11:18.

second homes. Last night we heard how Cornwall Council is calling on

:11:18.:11:21.

the Government to bring in new legislation to remove the council

:11:21.:11:23.

tax discount on second homes. The authority thinks the proposal could

:11:23.:11:26.

generate �1.6 million, which would then be used to provide more

:11:26.:11:31.

affordable housing. Lots of you have got in touch about this. Kay

:11:31.:11:34.

in Mylor Bridge says if people can afford to own two houses, insure

:11:34.:11:38.

and maintain them, then they should pay in excess of 100% council tax.

:11:38.:11:44.

She suggests 150%! John in Plymouth emailed to say he thinks people

:11:44.:11:46.

owning second homes should pay full council tax, especially if they

:11:47.:11:50.

rent them out. He says he had a totally empty bungalow in Leicester

:11:50.:11:55.

when his father died and had to pay full council tax after six months.

:11:55.:12:00.

And Geoff got in touch on the issue of tax on wooden chalets. He says

:12:00.:12:04.

his family has had a chalet at Whitsands Bay for 40 years which

:12:04.:12:07.

has no rubbish collection or street lights, but he has to pay nearly

:12:07.:12:12.

�1000 a year. We'll be taking a look at the rules on wooden chalets

:12:12.:12:17.

and council tax in tomorrow's Spotlight. Thanks to everyone for

:12:17.:12:27.

getting in touch. By new way of capturing the memories of dementia

:12:27.:12:31.

patients is being used in Somerset with film students making DVDs of

:12:31.:12:34.

people before the condition takes a hold. It is hoped it will help

:12:34.:12:40.

create a true record of their personality and identity. Exeter

:12:40.:12:42.

University are studying the information the film students

:12:42.:12:48.

gather to see if it has therapeutic benefits. Everyone has a story but

:12:48.:12:53.

for Mr Granville, the memory of his life's passion, cricket, might be

:12:53.:12:56.

fading but capturing them on video has met the 89 year-old can now

:12:56.:13:03.

relive them. Cricket. Yes, I used to go quite a lot and my father

:13:03.:13:10.

introduced me to the cricket when he came home on leave. I always

:13:10.:13:18.

went to the cricket. I was a member of the cricket club. As a matter-

:13:18.:13:23.

of-fact. Residents of Somerset Care were captured on film by students

:13:23.:13:28.

and the idea is being evaluated by Exeter University to find out if

:13:28.:13:34.

there are therapeutic benefits. Media student John Wallace...

:13:34.:13:39.

could tell it really helped him. The over all benefit was that he

:13:39.:13:42.

could remember things that he has forgotten and even by asking him

:13:42.:13:46.

questions, he would remember things that you could tell by his face, he

:13:46.:13:51.

goes, oh, I remember this and he starts talking. From that he will

:13:51.:13:53.

start talking about more things and you could tell that really helped

:13:53.:13:58.

him. Storytelling is being encouraged throughout Somerset

:13:58.:14:01.

Care's residential homes. So that memories can be captured before

:14:02.:14:07.

they fade. Centegenarian IV and there is one of 20 residents to

:14:07.:14:11.

have contributed their experience to a life-story book being promoted

:14:11.:14:16.

by these students. What are your memories of the war? As zeppelin

:14:16.:14:23.

was a German aircraft and it went through when I used to live. Just

:14:23.:14:29.

level to the house. It was quite exciting at the time. It is thought

:14:29.:14:33.

that being unable to recall memories is the main cause of

:14:33.:14:38.

agitation in dementia sufferers. So if this tale proves successful, it

:14:38.:14:47.

may be the case that stories become a mainstream therapy. One of the

:14:47.:14:50.

country's most popular romantic fiction writers has died at home in

:14:50.:14:53.

Torquay. Emma Blair wrote 29 books, but the Devon-based author was

:14:53.:15:03.
:15:03.:15:06.

actually a 6' 3" Glaswegian called Iain. Ian Blair started out as an

:15:06.:15:10.

actor, appearing in series like the Sweeney and Citizen Smith. Playing

:15:10.:15:14.

a burglar in one up as it. It was with his books that he enjoyed more

:15:14.:15:19.

success. Thrillers flopped but when he switched to a romantic fiction,

:15:19.:15:23.

things to cough. There was a sting in the tail. Suddenly his agent

:15:23.:15:32.

said, I have a publisher but there is a big but. We know it will sell

:15:32.:15:37.

but you need to have a name change. You must be a woman. He said,

:15:37.:15:43.

about? Yes. Do I have any choice? No, you are Emma Blair.

:15:43.:15:47.

author's identity remained a secret for years until the man behind Emma

:15:47.:15:50.

Blair, who own the road on a typewriter, came out after winning

:15:50.:15:57.

an award for romantic fiction. man who can understand finally

:15:57.:16:03.

motion, love and put it on pages as good as any woman. More books

:16:03.:16:07.

featuring Devon and Cornwall followed and after 29 bestsellers,

:16:07.:16:11.

stories by Emma Blair became some of the most borrowed books from

:16:11.:16:14.

libraries and Iain Blair, who died on Sunday from diabetes, will take

:16:14.:16:20.

one with them. His wife put a copy of this side of heaven with him.

:16:20.:16:24.

His legacy for all of us was that he was just this wonderful

:16:24.:16:33.

character. He had massive opinions, he was passionate about politics.

:16:33.:16:38.

Passionate about films with Errol Flynn and John Wayne. He just

:16:38.:16:41.

wasn't very larger than life character. I won't be able to fill

:16:41.:16:49.

the void. Jim Blair ending that report. Four members of the Great

:16:49.:16:52.

Britain Paralympic wheelchair rugby team have been training children in

:16:52.:16:55.

Plymouth. They were in the city as part of an event to help launch a

:16:55.:16:58.

new club which will hopefully attract players from across the

:16:58.:17:02.

South West. John Danks went to see them in action. It was a bit of a

:17:02.:17:04.

scrum at Plymouth's Mayflower Centre. Children of all abilities

:17:04.:17:08.

vying to get their hands on the ball. All under the expert tutelage

:17:08.:17:15.

of members of the Great Britain wheelchair rugby team. Looking into

:17:15.:17:20.

their eyes and the emotions, some of the guys you cannot tell but

:17:20.:17:24.

some of the emotion is awesome. I would like to think they have had a

:17:25.:17:29.

really good day. We have made wheelchair rugby a sport that they

:17:29.:17:33.

have enjoyed. Three players who loved it were Alex, William and

:17:33.:17:42.

Josh. Did you enjoy it? It was really good. I want to do it again.

:17:42.:17:45.

The The event coincided with the launch of a new wheelchair rugby

:17:45.:17:50.

club. We are starting at the bottom training sessions and hopefully it

:17:50.:17:55.

will go on from there. You never know, in the next Olympics perhaps

:17:55.:17:59.

we will have some Plymouth or South West people competing. And things

:17:59.:18:02.

stepped up a gear when Plymouth Albion players went toe-to-toe with

:18:02.:18:12.
:18:12.:18:23.

Part of the nature of the game is you have an able-bodied person in

:18:23.:18:27.

the chair and you just want to knockabout. It is like name

:18:27.:18:33.

checking. The amount of contact is pretty shocking but it's good fun.

:18:33.:18:35.

The organisers hope this taster session will generate enthusiasm

:18:35.:18:45.
:18:45.:18:49.

and support for wheelchair rugby in the city and the south-west. That

:18:49.:18:52.

got pretty competitive! There were concerns it would rain, but the sun

:18:52.:18:55.

has been shining in North Devon on the BBC's Antiques Roadshow at

:18:55.:18:58.

Hartland Abbey. More than 2000 people made their way to the

:18:58.:19:01.

grounds to have their treasured items valued by the experts on the

:19:01.:19:06.

programme. Spotlight's Jane Chandler joined them. It may be

:19:06.:19:09.

tucked away in a small corner of North Devon but Hartland Abbey's

:19:09.:19:12.

grounds were full to brimming in the reflected glory of the Antiques

:19:12.:19:18.

Roadshow. The crowds just kept on coming. And the queues went on and

:19:18.:19:26.

on and on. Can I ask you how long have you been queuing? About two

:19:26.:19:30.

and a quarter hours. What have you brought with you? Shall I take it

:19:30.:19:37.

out? Yes. How long have you had that? It belonged to my parents, I

:19:37.:19:41.

don't have the history. Yes, yes. What have you got there?

:19:42.:19:51.
:19:52.:19:54.

Corinthian jar from 600 BC. I'm just going to see John Sandon now.

:19:54.:19:58.

Can we follow you? Yes, indeed. Fiona Bruce is filming her fourth

:19:58.:20:01.

series as presenter of the Antiques Roadshow. Today's high number of

:20:01.:20:11.
:20:11.:20:13.

people surprised even her. How's it been today? It's been great. It's

been brilliant, so many people. Half the catchment area is mermaids

:20:17.:20:20.

and fishes, so many people have come and we've seen some wonderful

:20:20.:20:30.
:20:30.:20:31.

things. And we've had an amazing time. I was staying there. What a

:20:31.:20:35.

treat. What have the people liked here today? It's lovely. My parents

:20:35.:20:38.

are from Devon. I know the area really well. I know the county

:20:38.:20:43.

really well. Everybody has been so welcoming. It's been great. What

:20:43.:20:53.
:20:53.:20:54.

about that ancient pot earlier? Local pottery, some has been given

:20:54.:21:04.
:21:04.:21:07.

200 years old. But here, not just 2000 but two-and-a-half millennia!

:21:07.:21:12.

And the pot is still remaining. its value? In my mind I'm thinking

:21:12.:21:18.

maybe somewhere at four or 5,000. Well, I'd be happy. The next series

:21:18.:21:28.
:21:28.:21:29.

of Antiques Roadshow is due to air in the autumn. Did you think it

:21:29.:21:35.

would be worth that? I thought that would be worth more. Bearing in

:21:35.:21:39.

mind its age. But it's a good price, not to be sniffed at. It's a

:21:39.:21:42.

beautiful evening and we don't normally do this when the weather

:21:42.:21:45.

is fair, but we've made an exception tonight and let David out.

:21:45.:21:48.

He's on the Barbican this evening, where there's a bit more activity

:21:48.:21:58.

than usual because today marks the start of Plymouth Race Week. I am

:21:58.:22:03.

at Commercial Wharf, just alongside the Mayflower Steps. You have heard

:22:03.:22:06.

of Cowes week, sailing in the waters around the Isle of Wight.

:22:06.:22:09.

Here in Plymouth, today was the start of a new sailing event to

:22:09.:22:19.
:22:19.:22:37.

rival Cowes. Plymouth-based week is the new four-day event that will

:22:37.:22:41.

happen every two years in what is probably the finest natural harbour

:22:41.:22:45.

in Europe. Plymouth Sound is one of the best-kept secrets in the

:22:45.:22:50.

yachting community. A large expanse of on cluttered water and great

:22:50.:22:53.

views from Plymouth Hoe, they are not yet internationally well-known

:22:53.:22:57.

but that is about to change with the America's Cup in September and

:22:57.:23:02.

this new event that started today. The ceiling is hosted by the Royal

:23:02.:23:06.

Western Yacht Club. The first event will be smaller and it has to grow

:23:07.:23:12.

by its reputation. We have 60 boats this week and we are aiming for 350

:23:12.:23:17.

or 500 in two years. The regatta is set up near to Mayflower Steps at

:23:17.:23:21.

Commercial Wharf. With the race village, live music and stalls, it

:23:21.:23:26.

promises to offer something for everyone. The nominated charity is

:23:26.:23:31.

Help for Heroes and taking part are several yachts from two in the

:23:31.:23:34.

water, and today's conditions were challenging even for the most able-

:23:34.:23:40.

bodied. We do one simple thing. We try to inspire profoundly injured

:23:40.:23:44.

servicemen and we have a couple of guys who have never sailed before

:23:44.:23:48.

and even one of the boys who is coming back as an able-bodied

:23:48.:23:51.

volunteer and he will be helming so we hope to give the locals are in

Plymouth hospitality. On a day like today, you don't they to know much

about seven to appreciate what a great venue this is. The races

taking place on three courses, two outside the breakwater and one

inside and you can come down to see the yachts on the war. Who needs

Cowes Week when you come up all this and the history that Plymouth

:24:25.:24:26.

office as well. I got quite wet out there but it was a lovely morning.

:24:27.:24:34.

But there is something for everyone to see over the next few days and

:24:34.:24:40.

we made the weather. The wind tomorrow for race week is likely to

:24:40.:24:44.

be similar to today. Let's start with the forecast for Plymouth

:24:44.:24:48.

respect because they will see a stiff breeze. It might year and

:24:48.:24:52.

become westerly later in the day and also quite a few showers around.

:24:52.:24:57.

We have been lucky today with a lot of sunshine around and few showers.

:24:57.:25:00.

Showers typically are more widespread tomorrow. This is the

:25:00.:25:05.

big satellite picture. That lump of cloud across the south of Ireland

:25:05.:25:09.

at the moment is heading our way and that will bring rain it wrong

:25:10.:25:13.

so make the most of the evening sunshine and the dry weather

:25:13.:25:17.

because later tonight it will become cloudy. No pressure is in

:25:17.:25:21.

charge this evening but by lunchtime tomorrow it has moved a

:25:21.:25:27.

little bit. The big change will be into the weekend. This is lunchtime.

:25:27.:25:32.

You can see how the low-pressure is moving into the North Sea. West and

:25:32.:25:35.

north westerly wind and hopefully that will kill the showers and we

:25:35.:25:41.

will see drier weather for Saturday and Sunday. A closer look, the last

:25:42.:25:46.

few hours shows heavy downpours in central parts of Cornwall and

:25:46.:25:52.

central Devon. Even the odd rumble of thunder. Now those Chalmers will

:25:52.:25:56.

fade away but it run this evening the forecast is for it to cloud

:25:56.:25:59.

over with more persistent rain spreading right across the south-

:25:59.:26:03.

west by the end of the night so we wake up to a cloudy start and quite

:26:03.:26:08.

damp. Overnight temperatures, 13 degrees, tomorrow morning he will

:26:08.:26:12.

have a lot of cloud and quite a wet start. By late morning, some gaps

:26:13.:26:16.

developing in the cloud and by the afternoon we had the risk of

:26:16.:26:23.

showers, blustery conditions. But some sunshine in between. 18 or 19

:26:24.:26:27.

degrees is the best we can expect an for the Isles of Scilly,

:26:27.:26:31.

blustery and by the afternoon hopefully drier and brighter. The

:26:41.:26:53.

And the all-important coastal waters forecast, particularly for

:26:53.:27:00.

those taking part in the sailing regatta. Force five, occasionally

:27:00.:27:03.

six and the Dearing westerly later in the day and dropping to force

:27:03.:27:08.

for into the evening. Plenty of showers around. This is the outlook,

:27:09.:27:13.

not too bad, into the weekend and for the early part of next year, it

:27:13.:27:17.

might be on Saturday on Sunday we have a slight chance of showers

:27:17.:27:21.

turning up across eastern parts but otherwise drive and warming up as

:27:21.:27:27.

well with temperatures at around 21 degrees. From here at Commercial
