Committing crimes again within a year of release - the shocking | :00:09. | :00:12. | |
rates of re-offending at the region's jails. | :00:12. | :00:15. | |
Good evening. The figures have been described unacceptable. We'll be | :00:16. | :00:18. | |
finding out what's being done to tackle re-offending. | :00:18. | :00:21. | |
Also tonight, the therapeutic benefits of farming. How working | :00:21. | :00:24. | |
with animals is having a dramatic effect on teenagers with | :00:24. | :00:34. | |
behavioural problems. Get them to a farm. We have loads | :00:34. | :00:38. | |
of farms in this country. If they got your people out there they | :00:38. | :00:41. | |
could teach them employability skills. And the future of Drake's | :00:41. | :00:45. | |
Island - transforming it from this, to this. We'll talk to Dan McCauley | :00:45. | :00:48. | |
about his latest plans. Almost two thirds of short-term | :00:48. | :00:51. | |
inmates released from some of the South West's prisons re-offend | :00:51. | :00:55. | |
within a year. The new figures, from the Ministry of Justice, have | :00:55. | :00:59. | |
been described as very worrying by one of the region's leading police | :00:59. | :01:02. | |
officers. The Government told us the figures were unacceptable, and | :01:02. | :01:06. | |
they are taking urgent action to tackle re-offending. Simon Hall | :01:06. | :01:11. | |
reports. Hamish Lothian runs two gastro-pubs | :01:11. | :01:17. | |
in Exeter. The business suffered a �15,000 theft. He believes the | :01:17. | :01:20. | |
problem with rehabilitating offenders is that the Criminal | :01:20. | :01:30. | |
Justice System is too soft. biggest deterrent we have his | :01:30. | :01:34. | |
incarceration. If people do not feel they are going to have the | :01:34. | :01:39. | |
liberty to pride for long enough period, then there is no threat. | :01:39. | :01:44. | |
Did they is no threat, then committing another crime renewed | :01:44. | :01:48. | |
leaf jail is not going to be that much of an issue to you. You can | :01:48. | :01:53. | |
reoffend, you will get a slot reset again. New government statistics | :01:53. | :01:56. | |
indicate the majority of the South West's prisons fare badly in | :01:56. | :01:58. | |
reducing re-offending. Nationally, the average re-offending rate, for | :01:58. | :02:03. | |
criminals sentenced to less than 12 months, is 57%. Dartmoor, with 55%, | :02:03. | :02:05. | |
and Channings Wood, with 56% of such inmates re-offending, do | :02:05. | :02:10. | |
relatively well. But the rate at the Portland Young Offenders | :02:10. | :02:13. | |
Institution is 62%, At Exeter Prison, it's 65%, And at Dorchester | :02:13. | :02:23. | |
:02:23. | :02:27. | ||
Prison, 66%. There is on growing frustration that it is the same | :02:27. | :02:32. | |
faces he went up and the police custody centres, who were taken to | :02:32. | :02:39. | |
court, but they come out and we attend. It is a degree of real | :02:39. | :02:42. | |
concern for our members. The issue of tackling re-offending is | :02:42. | :02:45. | |
currently a subject of considerable political debate, with the Justice | :02:45. | :02:53. | |
Secretary, Ken Clarke, saying it's a priority. A Ministry of Justice | :02:53. | :02:57. | |
spokesman said, reoffending rates are unacceptably high and these | :02:58. | :03:02. | |
figures indicate the urgent need for reform of the system and the | :03:02. | :03:06. | |
introduction of a rehabilitation revolution. That is why we are | :03:06. | :03:11. | |
implementing tougher sentences, he said, while addressing the root | :03:11. | :03:15. | |
causes of offending behaviour. South West fishermen who met the | :03:15. | :03:17. | |
Secretary of State for the Environment today have criticised | :03:17. | :03:20. | |
the Government's conservation policies. Caroline Spelman has been | :03:20. | :03:23. | |
in Lyme Regis learning about new technology which monitors boats and | :03:23. | :03:30. | |
helps them avoid fishing in closed areas. Adrian Campbell reports. | :03:30. | :03:34. | |
The waters out to sea off the Cobb at Lyme Regis have become a testing | :03:34. | :03:36. | |
ground for more stringent conservation measures in recent | :03:36. | :03:40. | |
years. Today, the Secretary of State for the Environment, Caroline | :03:40. | :03:43. | |
Spelman, came to Lyme find out about new technology using mobile | :03:43. | :03:52. | |
phone signals. It feeds data via this tiny box back to shore. | :03:52. | :03:55. | |
Vessels are monitored at sea, ensuring they avoid areas where | :03:55. | :04:04. | |
they shouldnt fish. I think this new technology represents an | :04:04. | :04:09. | |
important advance. It is a more sophisticated approach to how we | :04:09. | :04:12. | |
protect the environment, how we can be more accurate in understanding | :04:12. | :04:17. | |
where to fish, so that fishermen can make a living but at the same | :04:17. | :04:27. | |
:04:27. | :04:28. | ||
time we protect species. Ministers said they came here today to seek | :04:28. | :04:32. | |
the fishing industry first hand. They want to look and learn. But | :04:32. | :04:37. | |
many within the in -- industry so they are disappointed by the way | :04:37. | :04:42. | |
the Government has behaved. We have 25 kilos of salt a month, and | :04:42. | :04:48. | |
sometimes I can drop to nothing. Sometimes we have no quota at all. | :04:48. | :04:53. | |
Sometimes we have no cod atoll. We had a court ban two months ago when | :04:53. | :04:57. | |
we could not catch any cold water are there and it put a cap on how | :04:57. | :05:04. | |
much we can earn. Do you have faith in the government's fishing | :05:04. | :05:09. | |
policies? Not at this moment in time. But we will say. What is | :05:09. | :05:17. | |
wrong with the policies at the moment? We have lack of quotas, | :05:17. | :05:23. | |
currently getting areas close to her fishing, I don't need to say | :05:23. | :05:26. | |
any more. Ministers have stood on the Cobb before to talk about | :05:26. | :05:29. | |
conservation, but the fishermen say despite all the warm words from | :05:29. | :05:32. | |
politicians they are disappointed to be losing more of their grounds | :05:32. | :05:36. | |
out to sea. The Business Secretary, Vince Cable, | :05:36. | :05:40. | |
who's been on a visit to Cornwall today, says the South West needs | :05:40. | :05:43. | |
more vocational skills. He was in the county to highlight a new | :05:43. | :05:46. | |
Higher Apprenticeship scheme. David George reports. | :05:47. | :05:49. | |
The Business Secretary chose a parcel distribution company in | :05:49. | :05:52. | |
Bodmin to highlight the new scheme, which offers a level of | :05:52. | :05:57. | |
appenticeships which will be equivalent to a university degree. | :05:57. | :06:00. | |
This company already employs a number of apprentices in the South | :06:00. | :06:09. | |
West. If you go to college you do not get paid and sometimes she | :06:09. | :06:12. | |
struggle with money but in an apprenticeship you have already got | :06:12. | :06:17. | |
a job, so you're getting paid and learning on the chop. There is | :06:17. | :06:21. | |
benefit both ways. The Government is spending �25 million on the new | :06:21. | :06:24. | |
Higher Apprenticeship scheme - which it says will help the economy | :06:24. | :06:31. | |
of the Southwest and beyond. have to point the way to a | :06:31. | :06:36. | |
different kind of economy where we do more exporting, more | :06:36. | :06:40. | |
manufacturing, where we rely on private business investment. To | :06:40. | :06:44. | |
make a success of that we have to have properly trained people. It is | :06:44. | :06:48. | |
part of the bigger process of building up vocational skills in | :06:48. | :06:52. | |
Britain. The Labour Party points out that youth unemployment in the | :06:52. | :06:56. | |
South West is at a record high. It welcomes any move to boost | :06:56. | :06:59. | |
apprenticeships or jobs for young people but says these need to be | :06:59. | :07:06. | |
quality jobs. This company promises they will be. It is good to see | :07:06. | :07:10. | |
government assisting the private sector, assisting us to train | :07:10. | :07:14. | |
managers for the future. It is obvious we have a number of | :07:14. | :07:17. | |
challengers within each of our markets and this exercise in making | :07:17. | :07:22. | |
sure we can put the right type of training into individuals that we | :07:22. | :07:26. | |
see as our future talent. Business Secretary went on to visit | :07:26. | :07:28. | |
some of Cornwall's exporters, including this Penryn firm which | :07:28. | :07:33. | |
makes robots for use in stage and theatre productions. | :07:34. | :07:37. | |
Well, the Government has its work cut out with jobs. It's been a | :07:37. | :07:41. | |
challenging week to say the least in the region. Our political editor, | :07:41. | :07:49. | |
Martyn Oates, is with us now. That a scheme we have been hearing about | :07:49. | :07:54. | |
is one of a range of initiatives. Yes, we have had a lot of new | :07:54. | :08:01. | |
things this way. More credit easing for small businesses, the bypass. A | :08:01. | :08:04. | |
week ago, we had to use contract scheme and failed, something else | :08:04. | :08:09. | |
to get young people into training and work. As Vince Cable said, | :08:09. | :08:14. | |
there is very good reason for these measures. Boosting the private | :08:14. | :08:19. | |
sector to fill the gap have turned the receding public sector as a | :08:19. | :08:23. | |
result of the government measures. In the wake of the Autumn Statement | :08:23. | :08:27. | |
a couple of days ago, it is even more vital and even more of an | :08:27. | :08:31. | |
uphill challenge. We have a bit reliance on the public sector in | :08:31. | :08:35. | |
this region and it is clear that it is going to shrink even further. | :08:35. | :08:41. | |
Yes, as of the Autumn Statement, winner hunters of thousands extra | :08:41. | :08:45. | |
public sector jobs will go and public sector pay will be capped | :08:45. | :08:49. | |
for longer. The Chancellor is also looking at moving towards regional | :08:49. | :08:53. | |
pay scales and the public sector. He thinks that the national pay | :08:53. | :08:59. | |
scale at the moment Leeds, in some regions, to a big cat between paid | :08:59. | :09:03. | |
in the public sector and the private sector. He says when that | :09:03. | :09:07. | |
occurs, and where public sector is significantly higher, there is a | :09:07. | :09:11. | |
damaging effect on the private sector and makes it less | :09:11. | :09:16. | |
competitive. The Institute of Fiscal Studies says the region with | :09:16. | :09:21. | |
the biggest gapped is the south- west. I thought you might say that. | :09:21. | :09:25. | |
A care farm in Dorset says the therapeutic value of working with | :09:25. | :09:28. | |
animals is changing the lives of teenagers with behavioural problems. | :09:28. | :09:30. | |
Future Roots near Sherborne has already won two national awards, | :09:30. | :09:34. | |
including "the very best in farming education". It helps teenagers who | :09:34. | :09:37. | |
have been excluded from mainstream education and those with special | :09:37. | :09:43. | |
needs, as Janine Jansen explains. Mud and animals. A life so | :09:43. | :09:47. | |
different from home and school. Julie Plumley used to be a social | :09:47. | :09:51. | |
worker. Then she bought a farm. She's passionate about helping | :09:51. | :10:01. | |
troubled teenagers change their lives. The they come here can, I | :10:01. | :10:06. | |
don't want to be a farmer, I don't like Denmark and a smile. Then they | :10:06. | :10:11. | |
find out, actually, I love the animals. Best of them have not been | :10:11. | :10:14. | |
noted so they do not know what it is like to build relationships. | :10:14. | :10:22. | |
Like 14-year-old Gary. He finds it hard to mix with kids at school. | :10:22. | :10:28. | |
have been brought up a lonely child, if you like, with nobody to talk to. | :10:28. | :10:33. | |
Brought up like a single individual. So in school it has been hard for | :10:33. | :10:38. | |
me to co-operate with others and get involved. Every single campus | :10:38. | :10:42. | |
and here has such potential. We have found so many qualities that | :10:42. | :10:45. | |
they have got there perhaps is not found in school. The teenagers come | :10:46. | :10:49. | |
here one day a week. Teachers say they always see a change, no matter | :10:49. | :10:57. | |
how small. It is not like the movies, there are not this moment | :10:57. | :11:04. | |
of epiphany whether Kit subtly says, yes, I get it, I totally understand. | :11:04. | :11:09. | |
It is the small things. Last week, one of the guys in the class, us | :11:09. | :11:14. | |
looking about for my Burley's at the end of the day, and he just | :11:14. | :11:17. | |
pick them up and put them on my feet. That is enough for me, that | :11:18. | :11:22. | |
will keep me going for a month, when you get these little | :11:22. | :11:25. | |
unconscious acts of kindness. year-old Mark says coming to the | :11:25. | :11:32. | |
farm has made him better behaved. like animals and it is good to work | :11:32. | :11:40. | |
with them. Today like to? Yes, because I'm kind to them. We had a | :11:40. | :11:43. | |
referral for your own man he was told was the most aggressive man | :11:43. | :11:48. | |
you will meet. He was amazing that the animals. He had not been under | :11:48. | :11:53. | |
par before. His attitude when he turned up was, hand on hip, you're | :11:53. | :11:58. | |
not getting me to do anything. Within six weeks, he just knew he | :11:58. | :12:03. | |
wanted to be a farmer. He has applied for a farm job, he is not | :12:03. | :12:07. | |
getting in trouble with the police. Teenagers can gain qualifications | :12:07. | :12:12. | |
here as well as the most important thing - self esteem. | :12:12. | :12:15. | |
The Local Education Authority pays for the students to attend Future | :12:15. | :12:19. | |
Roots and in a statement, Dorset County Council, said: It's an | :12:19. | :12:22. | |
absolutely superb facility, and I'm very happy that the Children Out Of | :12:22. | :12:26. | |
School Service has a base there. Still lots to come on the programme | :12:26. | :12:30. | |
tonight, including. All in a day's work. Royal Marines undertake the | :12:30. | :12:35. | |
ultimate challenge to test their skills. And a sparkling end to the | :12:35. | :12:43. | |
programme as Christmas comes to town. Christmas is looking very | :12:43. | :12:48. | |
festive for the Christmas carnival. Clearing skies means Frost later. I | :12:48. | :12:53. | |
will have a full forecasts later. Men under 25 are the target of this | :12:53. | :12:56. | |
year's Christmas anti-drink drive campaign, which has been launched | :12:56. | :12:59. | |
in the region today. During last year's month-long campaign in Devon | :12:59. | :13:01. | |
and Cornwall, 157 people tested positive for drink-driving, and | :13:01. | :13:06. | |
almost a third of them were under 25. Spotlight's Johnny Rutherford | :13:06. | :13:14. | |
reports. The long arm of the law. Today | :13:14. | :13:19. | |
handing out advice about leaving the car at home if you are out | :13:19. | :13:24. | |
drinking during the festive season. This was just a mock up for the | :13:24. | :13:28. | |
programme but police are targeting young drivers this month as part of | :13:28. | :13:32. | |
the drink-driving campaign, especially young drivers under 25. | :13:32. | :13:38. | |
They make up about 10% of drivers on nav Road but they are | :13:38. | :13:41. | |
disproportionately represented in our drink-driving statistics. We | :13:41. | :13:47. | |
are looking to family members and friends to get the message across. | :13:47. | :13:50. | |
If they are going a socialising, it is not just the responsibility of | :13:50. | :13:53. | |
the driver, Bob Willett young friends and relatives to get the | :13:53. | :13:59. | |
message across as well. During last year's campaign hundred and 57 | :13:59. | :14:04. | |
people tested positive for drink- driving and almost a third of them | :14:04. | :14:09. | |
were under 25. This is the sort of mess that emergency services end up | :14:09. | :14:14. | |
dealing with. Quite often, it is the passenger who comes off worst. | :14:14. | :14:19. | |
It is known as the sacrificial seat. Whereas the driver will try to | :14:19. | :14:25. | |
protect himself, the passenger often comes off worse. And there | :14:25. | :14:29. | |
are innocent bystanders who, from the action of the driver, may get | :14:29. | :14:35. | |
caught up with dire consequences. The human costs in an accident are | :14:35. | :14:38. | |
obvious but there are social cost a court behind the wheel over the | :14:38. | :14:42. | |
limit. If you end up being convicted of drink-driving do when | :14:42. | :14:47. | |
news short licence for 12 months. If your livelihood depends on | :14:47. | :14:52. | |
having a driving licence, you could lose your livelihood. If your | :14:52. | :14:55. | |
mortgage or rent is dependent upon that livelihood you could lose your | :14:55. | :14:59. | |
home as well. Cheques will be carried out at all kinds of the day | :14:59. | :15:06. | |
and drivers will be urged to think twice about drinking -- driving in | :15:06. | :15:11. | |
the morning after the night before. Care workers in Cornwall who visit | :15:11. | :15:14. | |
elderly and vulnerable people in their homes could be monitored to | :15:14. | :15:16. | |
check they're spending enough time with their clients. Cornwall | :15:16. | :15:20. | |
Council says although the majority of care workers do a very good job, | :15:20. | :15:23. | |
they have had some complaints about late visits and some visits being | :15:23. | :15:26. | |
missed altogether. The authority says the monitoring could involve | :15:26. | :15:33. | |
using a phone code system. What we are looking at is a system whereby | :15:33. | :15:38. | |
somebody uses a code to enter into a telephone when they enter | :15:38. | :15:41. | |
somebody's house and when they are going to leave. It is not about | :15:42. | :15:47. | |
taking any buggie or any kind of satellite technology. It is about | :15:47. | :15:51. | |
using a code to say that you have arrived and you have left. | :15:51. | :15:55. | |
funeral has taken place of a couple who died in the M5 crash near | :15:55. | :15:59. | |
Taunton. Pam and Tony Adams were among seven people who died in the | :15:59. | :16:02. | |
accident last month. The couple, both in their 70s, were driving | :16:02. | :16:05. | |
home to South Wales after visiting their daughter in Somerset. Today's | :16:05. | :16:08. | |
service in Newport was led by the Bishop of Monmouth. | :16:08. | :16:11. | |
Fears are being raised that bus services in Cornwall's most rural | :16:11. | :16:15. | |
areas will be the first to go as the network is re-tendered. The 60% | :16:15. | :16:18. | |
of routes supported by the council are under review following the | :16:18. | :16:21. | |
decision to cut subsidies from April. There's concern services | :16:21. | :16:26. | |
between big towns will stay, at the expense of country routes. | :16:26. | :16:29. | |
We featured an interview with the owners of the Hayloft Restaurant in | :16:29. | :16:32. | |
Liskeard in a recent report about banks and small businesses. The | :16:32. | :16:36. | |
Hayloft is for sale, but we've been asked to make it clear that it is | :16:36. | :16:39. | |
not closing down. 16 years after buying Drake's | :16:39. | :16:41. | |
Island in Plymouth Sound, the owners have today unveiled | :16:41. | :16:45. | |
ambitious plans for its future. The former chairman of Plymouth Argyle, | :16:45. | :16:49. | |
Dan McCauley, and his son, say they want to attract the jet-set to an | :16:49. | :16:53. | |
exclusive boutique hotel and restaurant. They say it will be up | :16:53. | :16:56. | |
and running in two years - but, as Andrea Ormsby reports, we've heard | :16:56. | :17:00. | |
that before. It's been called the jewel in | :17:00. | :17:05. | |
Plymouth's crown - 6.5 acres of history and potential. But for many | :17:05. | :17:15. | |
:17:15. | :17:16. | ||
years now it's been left in ruins. I was ashamed of it because I let | :17:16. | :17:21. | |
it deteriorate far to find far too fast. I did not believe, with the | :17:21. | :17:26. | |
construction of the building pink rock, it would fall apart like it | :17:26. | :17:33. | |
had. So I was rather surprised and ashamed of the island, really, and | :17:33. | :17:37. | |
I've refused to be on it until I have started doing something. | :17:37. | :17:40. | |
his son Aidan unveiled multi- million pound plans to convert the | :17:40. | :17:43. | |
historic buildings already on the island into a new boutique hotel | :17:43. | :17:50. | |
and restaurant. We feel it is a very special place and it really | :17:50. | :17:54. | |
deserves to be something special for Plymouth and for people from | :17:54. | :18:00. | |
all over the world who we hope to attract here. We feel applies and | :18:00. | :18:03. | |
responsible and determined to deliver that. It's hoped work will | :18:03. | :18:07. | |
start next year and that the doors will open the year after. But we've | :18:07. | :18:10. | |
been here before - 1995, and Dan McCauley buys the island, planning | :18:10. | :18:18. | |
to turn it into a historic maritime theme park within a year or so. | :18:18. | :18:22. | |
have a lot of deserters in Plymouth and am quite sure that when they | :18:22. | :18:26. | |
come to the Mayflower Steps they say, is this all it is? Now, though, | :18:26. | :18:29. | |
an altogether different plan from the people who designed Plymouth's | :18:29. | :18:39. | |
aquarium. The island think captures the information -- the inspiration. | :18:39. | :18:45. | |
There are layers of history there. They will be new, quite like weight | :18:45. | :18:50. | |
contemporary additions, but it will sit as quite a small element | :18:50. | :18:55. | |
amongst the cluster of buildings. The new peers are to building, you | :18:55. | :19:00. | |
will be able to discern, but the overall appearance of the island | :19:00. | :19:04. | |
from the mainland will still be there as a single composition. | :19:04. | :19:10. | |
all they need is planning permission. | :19:10. | :19:16. | |
Let us know what you think of those ideas. We all know you can never be | :19:16. | :19:20. | |
quite sure what's in store when you turn up for work each day. But for | :19:20. | :19:23. | |
a group of Royal Marines, this afternoon proved to be something of | :19:23. | :19:26. | |
a challenge. Because, unbeknown to them, it involved a full scale | :19:26. | :19:29. | |
amphibious assault. Spotlight's Clare Casson reports. | :19:29. | :19:33. | |
A murky December day off Devonport - and time to test the skills of | :19:33. | :19:35. | |
Royal Marines who have been training for battle. This | :19:35. | :19:38. | |
amphibious assault was the culmination of 3.5 months of | :19:38. | :19:42. | |
intense training. For 26 marines it meant putting that into practice, | :19:42. | :19:47. | |
alongside 150 other troops. But until this morning the details were | :19:47. | :19:57. | |
top secret - designed to test their new skills at the highest level. | :19:57. | :20:00. | |
The guys have been testing amphibious warfare, learning to | :20:00. | :20:06. | |
drive the craft, learning to fight on the craft. It has all come | :20:06. | :20:10. | |
together with one of the students being asked to deliver a | :20:10. | :20:14. | |
presentation with only about eight hours notice on all matters landing | :20:14. | :20:19. | |
craft and warfare, here, in front of the VIP audience. And we're told | :20:19. | :20:23. | |
the 14 weeks of training paid off - as they dealt with landing and | :20:23. | :20:31. | |
beach reconnaissance in the midst of an enemy force. | :20:31. | :20:36. | |
demonstration revolved around the soft approach of humanitarian aid | :20:36. | :20:41. | |
to the two countries that need it, which then developed into an | :20:41. | :20:45. | |
attacking to our forces, which we repelled, and then back into their | :20:45. | :20:49. | |
humanitarian stance. We did it here because it is an ideal location to | :20:49. | :20:53. | |
do it. The Royal Marines are seen as the UK's amphibious experts - | :20:53. | :20:56. | |
today was all about maintaining that and being ready to deploy | :20:56. | :21:05. | |
anywhere in the world. The countdown to Christmas is under | :21:05. | :21:10. | |
way. It is the 1st December and the advent calendar that Victoria | :21:10. | :21:16. | |
brought in was open today. It had chocolates can it! And we had been | :21:16. | :21:21. | |
spies. So, with a Christmas Carnival going on in Plymouth, we | :21:21. | :21:26. | |
thought we would send David Haye to soak up the atmosphere, but a | :21:26. | :21:35. | |
Pinkie is setting up the rain! -- I think. | :21:35. | :21:40. | |
Plymouth city centre this evening is a vibrant place. The people are | :21:40. | :21:45. | |
out in droves this evening for the Christmas shopping and tonight is | :21:45. | :21:49. | |
the Christmas card double. Let us find out what is happening and | :21:49. | :21:55. | |
joined Plymouth city centre manager, Clint Jones. It is going really | :21:55. | :22:02. | |
well. Lots of activity going on all over the city. We have the grotto | :22:02. | :22:07. | |
behind us, the ice rink, the Christmas market, street | :22:07. | :22:14. | |
entertainers, we have the stage with fantastic facts. It is a | :22:14. | :22:18. | |
fantastic atmosphere in town this evening. I understand you had a | :22:18. | :22:24. | |
very busy day yesterday. Yesterday was busy. We had the strike action. | :22:24. | :22:30. | |
We had a well attended Marsha the city centre but we also had a busy | :22:30. | :22:35. | |
trading day. We have some live reindeer in Plymouth city centre. | :22:35. | :22:41. | |
How have you achieve that? We have our connection with various | :22:41. | :22:48. | |
organisations! We have flying reindeer over the weekend as well. | :22:48. | :22:53. | |
-- live reindeer. Hopefully everyone in the city centre will be | :22:53. | :22:57. | |
busy over the next couple of weeks. I think people have been holding on | :22:57. | :23:02. | |
to the money, but Christmas is with us. Hopefully, the signals the | :23:02. | :23:07. | |
start of a very busy festive period for us. Thanks very much. As you | :23:07. | :23:12. | |
have probably worked out, it is a bit damp down here. One of the | :23:12. | :23:17. | |
warmest people we have got is the snowman over there. Let us have a | :23:17. | :23:22. | |
look up what will happen over the next few days. We have rain tonight | :23:22. | :23:32. | |
:23:32. | :23:33. | ||
We will start with the summary of what is happening tomorrow. A cold | :23:33. | :23:37. | |
start with overnight temperatures close to freezing. So there will be | :23:37. | :23:41. | |
some frost and main the dry tomorrow until we see some further | :23:41. | :23:46. | |
rain. You can see the big lump of cloud over most of Britain at the | :23:46. | :23:51. | |
moment. The rain turning heavier as it comes into Plymouth, moving | :23:51. | :23:55. | |
along the south coast. The weather front is the reason for the brain | :23:55. | :23:59. | |
this evening. It my third of the way and by the time begetter | :23:59. | :24:05. | |
lunchtime tomorrow we have a week which of high pressure. That means | :24:05. | :24:09. | |
dry weather for a good part of the day. By midday on Saturday, all | :24:09. | :24:17. | |
change again, another by the system and more wind and rain arising. A | :24:17. | :24:23. | |
close-up shows sued the brain that we have had in the last few hours. | :24:23. | :24:32. | |
It is moving steadily in and east, north easterly direction. The wet | :24:32. | :24:36. | |
weather the seeding in the poor cat will continue to spread eastwards | :24:36. | :24:41. | |
and tend to die away overnight. A few showers coming into parts of | :24:41. | :24:46. | |
North Devon and also into Cornwall. Temperatures dipping away fast what | :24:47. | :24:52. | |
we lose the cloud cover. Particularly across the far north | :24:52. | :24:54. | |
and east of Somerset where we could see quite a widespread frost later | :24:54. | :25:00. | |
on. With a few showers that we have seen, the risk of some icy patches | :25:00. | :25:04. | |
on roads and pavements tomorrow morning. Tomorrow, a bright day | :25:05. | :25:09. | |
with some sunshine. More cloud in the West giving showers in the | :25:09. | :25:15. | |
morning. More persistent rain sets in later in the day. Later in the | :25:15. | :25:20. | |
evening, a return to more wet and windy conditions. So temporarily | :25:20. | :25:26. | |
tomorrow and overnight, dry weather, and tomorrow a bit of sunshine to | :25:26. | :25:30. | |
enjoy. The Isles of Scilly have a fine start to the day but it will | :25:30. | :25:40. | |
:25:40. | :25:51. | ||
All the way through this week and last week the surf has been very | :25:51. | :26:01. | |
:26:01. | :26:06. | ||
The South Coast perhaps a little bit clean and tell the wind changes | :26:06. | :26:16. | |
:26:16. | :26:27. | ||
Tomorrow night and into the early hours of Saturday, we have another | :26:27. | :26:32. | |
batch of wet weather. Rain on Saturday, some of it turning quite | :26:32. | :26:39. | |
heavy. And strong winds as well. Slightly warmer air, possibly 13 | :26:39. | :26:46. | |
degrees. Eight temporary clearance of the rain band. But some day, as | :26:46. | :26:51. | |
you can see, is not much better. A little bit colder, with 11 degrees | :26:51. | :26:57. | |
the highest temperature. Perhaps a more persistent rain into the | :26:57. | :27:03. | |
afternoon. A cold night on Sunday night into Monday. On Monday, a | :27:03. | :27:08. | |
scattering of showers. Monday, possibly over the higher parts of | :27:08. | :27:18. | |
the moors, one or two shares could A reminder of the top stories. New | :27:18. | :27:22. | |
figures show that two-thirds of short-term prisoners in some of the | :27:22. | :27:26. | |
region's jazz are committing crime again within a year of release. | :27:26. | :27:32. |
