of concerns. Famous faces join thousands in a | :00:50. | :00:52. | |

one of the local horses making a A man from Cornwall who left his | :01:04. | :01:07. | |
ex-girlfriend blinded after gouging her eyes out today pleaded guilty | :01:07. | :01:11. | |
to causing grievous bodily harm with intent. Truro Crown Court | :01:11. | :01:13. | |
heard that 32-year-old Shane Jenkin, from Hayle, carried out the brutal | :01:13. | :01:16. | |
attack on Tina Nash, a young mother of two children, after strangling | :01:16. | :01:24. | |
her into unconsciousness. He will been sentenced next month. | :01:24. | :01:27. | |
Police say it was a premeditated, sustained and vicious attack on a | :01:27. | :01:30. | |
defenceless woman. Tina Nash's injuries were so shocking that | :01:30. | :01:33. | |
friends who saw her soon after the incident found it difficult to stay | :01:33. | :01:38. | |
in the room. Tina later had to have her left eye surgically removed. In | :01:38. | :01:41. | |
an interview with the BBC she's been explaining how the attack has | :01:41. | :01:49. | |
affected her life. It makes me feel like I have been | :01:49. | :01:57. | |
buried alive. That is exactly how I can describe that. | :01:57. | :02:02. | |
It's plain what you mean by that. - - explain what you mean. | :02:02. | :02:06. | |
I feel like a ghost. You know, I can hear everyone around me, but I | :02:06. | :02:12. | |
can't even see my own hand in front of my face. When I hear my kids, I | :02:12. | :02:20. | |
can't... Sorry, I can't see their faces. That is what does it to me. | :02:20. | :02:24. | |
It could have been anything else, but the fact I am not going to see | :02:24. | :02:29. | |
my kids' faces again, I think that is a bit harsh. He went too far | :02:29. | :02:34. | |
this time. What do you think you have lost in | :02:34. | :02:38. | |
all this? Everything, my whole life. I feel | :02:38. | :02:43. | |
like if my kids went in the house that might actually wished that I | :02:43. | :02:48. | |
wasn't still here. I would rather not be here like this. This isn't | :02:49. | :02:58. | |
need. What do you miss most? | :02:58. | :03:03. | |
The world. By just Mr the world, I miss my kids' faces. I miss | :03:03. | :03:12. | |
everything. I have nothing now. I like sleeping, because when I am | :03:12. | :03:17. | |
asleep that is when I am dreaming, and when I wake up, I think, this | :03:17. | :03:27. | |
:03:27. | :03:28. | ||
again. My confidence has gone now. I don't know what I would like. | :03:28. | :03:31. | |
The last thing you saw that night was him. | :03:31. | :03:41. | |
Yes. Exactly. That makes me feel... I hope he doesn't buzz off that, | :03:41. | :03:48. | |
you will? I do wonder if he is bragging about it. I am the last | :03:48. | :03:52. | |
person she ever saw. What is your message to people who | :03:52. | :03:57. | |
might be watching and listening to this who are in a relationship | :03:57. | :04:01. | |
where other that -- where they are subjected to domestic violence. | :04:01. | :04:06. | |
Get out, before it is too late. It will not get better, it will get | :04:06. | :04:10. | |
worst. What is your message to him? | :04:10. | :04:16. | |
I hope it was worth it. I hope he has nightmares every single night | :04:16. | :04:21. | |
for what he has done. Tina Nash talking to the BBC's Jon | :04:21. | :04:26. | |
Kay. Major problems with the care of | :04:26. | :04:29. | |
elderly people in Devon's nursing homes have been highlighted in a | :04:29. | :04:33. | |
report into untoward deaths. While most nursing homes are well run, a | :04:33. | :04:36. | |
report by the Devon Safeguarding Adults Board has put forward 74 | :04:36. | :04:38. | |
recommendations for improvements including professionals being more | :04:38. | :04:48. | |
:04:48. | :04:49. | ||
alert to poor care. Spotlight's John Henderson has the details. | :04:49. | :04:53. | |
Peter was a resident at this nursing-home near Dartmouth. In | :04:53. | :04:59. | |
December 2009, he killed another resident, a woman in her 90s. The | :04:59. | :05:04. | |
man, who was suffering from paranoid delusions, was that some - | :05:04. | :05:07. | |
- admitted to the secure hospital indefinitely. This was arguably the | :05:08. | :05:16. | |
most shocking of three incidents that prompted serious care reviews. | :05:16. | :05:20. | |
The others involved 29 patients dying in one year. In another home, | :05:20. | :05:24. | |
our resident wandered off and Deborah two fatal accident on the | :05:24. | :05:30. | |
same day. The reviews are being conducted by the adults board. The | :05:30. | :05:35. | |
board said that while most care homes where will run, | :05:36. | :05:40. | |
investigations were needed to ensure people were kept safe. Julie | :05:40. | :05:44. | |
says that these sorts of cases are rare, but alarming. | :05:44. | :05:50. | |
It would, I know, upset a lot of people. I am personally really | :05:50. | :05:56. | |
upset, having been annex provider of care, at that this has happened. | :05:56. | :06:03. | |
Devastated, actually. I think we have to act on it now and all | :06:03. | :06:08. | |
worked together to improve. A police are part of the | :06:08. | :06:12. | |
safeguarding adults board. They see residential care homes in Devon are | :06:12. | :06:18. | |
safe, but sometimes things go wrong. People do write -- have a right to | :06:18. | :06:22. | |
make choices in care homes, as they do in society normally. Sometimes | :06:22. | :06:27. | |
those choices are the wrong trousers, and can result in | :06:27. | :06:32. | |
criminal offences. Endless cases, the police will get involved and we | :06:32. | :06:35. | |
will investigate. Most adult care in Devon is | :06:35. | :06:40. | |
accident -- excellent. These reviews show that we it is not the | :06:40. | :06:44. | |
consequences can be grave. -- where it is not. | :06:44. | :06:47. | |
People are being asked not to visit the Royal Cornwall Hospital because | :06:47. | :06:50. | |
of an outbreak of norovirus. The hospital says the vomiting bug is | :06:50. | :06:52. | |
affecting some areas, and they're trying to prevent it spreading. | :06:52. | :06:55. | |
Visitors are being advised to ring the appropriate ward before leaving | :06:55. | :06:57. | |
home. Figures released by Cancer Research | :06:57. | :07:00. | |
UK show the number of women in the South West with lung cancer | :07:00. | :07:03. | |
continues to rise. More than 28 women in every 100,000 are | :07:03. | :07:09. | |
diagnosed with the illness locally, compared to 25 in the mid '80s. | :07:09. | :07:11. | |
The Plymouth-based amphibious assault ship HMS Bulwark is on her | :07:11. | :07:16. | |
way to one of the largest military exercises in Europe. The Royal Navy | :07:16. | :07:21. | |
flagship is taking part in Joint Warrior off the coast of Scotland. | :07:21. | :07:25. | |
She is taking a command and control role, and will be joined by ships | :07:25. | :07:35. | |
:07:35. | :07:37. | ||
from America, France and Denmark. There is a warning tonight that | :07:37. | :07:40. | |
some people with mental illness in Somerset will be pushed to breaking | :07:40. | :07:43. | |
point, now that an employment support service has been cut. The | :07:43. | :07:45. | |
Re-Engage project, run by the charity Mind, helps psychiatric | :07:45. | :07:48. | |
patients live in the community and get into work. Matthew Hill has | :07:48. | :07:53. | |
been to meet one of their clients. One month a ball, Emma Bourne | :07:53. | :07:57. | |
thought her life was back on track after having serious psychiatric | :07:57. | :08:02. | |
problems, but then her support service was withdrawn and she was | :08:02. | :08:10. | |
left feeling suicidal. How bad were things on Saturday? Very bad to, I | :08:10. | :08:17. | |
was suicidal and took a knife and nearly put it in me. The police | :08:17. | :08:23. | |
came out got back she is one of around 15 of relying on the Re- | :08:23. | :08:26. | |
Engage project in Taunton. It helps them with a more normal | :08:26. | :08:30. | |
life and even get a job. It took me so long to get into | :08:30. | :08:34. | |
employment, whenever people say to it -- say things to me, they | :08:34. | :08:41. | |
promise things to me but it never happens, people are shocked. | :08:41. | :08:47. | |
It is run by eight -- it was run by Mind at a cost of �12,000 per year | :08:47. | :08:49. | |
and a load for one-to-one counselling. The charity says the | :08:49. | :08:53. | |
money is now being used for group work instead, something that does | :08:53. | :08:57. | |
not suit everyone. The bull will feel they are | :08:57. | :09:01. | |
cornered, their options have been taken away from them. The warriors | :09:01. | :09:05. | |
you will always have a small group of people that need a different | :09:06. | :09:10. | |
type of service. The Somerset NHS Partnership said | :09:10. | :09:14. | |
they always tried to respond to individual needs and deer are drink | :09:14. | :09:18. | |
Emma to contact them, but they and the County Council that fund the | :09:18. | :09:22. | |
service say it is not a question of money being cut, it is simply being | :09:22. | :09:28. | |
used in a different way to meet changes in national policy. | :09:28. | :09:31. | |
The NHS three recently discharged patients have access to a duty | :09:31. | :09:35. | |
officer and can get their help if they feel their mental health is | :09:35. | :09:39. | |
getting worse. The councils say they are trying to support people | :09:39. | :09:43. | |
to develop the confidence and skills to manage their own mental | :09:44. | :09:46. | |
health and their working with committees, groups and | :09:46. | :09:51. | |
organisations. But, for a few like Emil -- Ellen, that may not be | :09:51. | :09:58. | |
So far Dorset has remained free of windfarms but it seems that could | :09:59. | :10:03. | |
soon change. Campaigners are facing a double whammy. There are plans | :10:03. | :10:06. | |
for a huge windfarm off their world heritage coast and separate | :10:06. | :10:09. | |
proposals from the county council for onshore turbines. It is all | :10:09. | :10:15. | |
driven by government policy in favour of wind power. Spotlight's | :10:15. | :10:18. | |
political editor, Martyn Oates, is here to tell us more. | :10:18. | :10:24. | |
It is not just Dorset, but most of the South West that has been pretty | :10:24. | :10:28. | |
resistance to wind turbines. The obvious exception is Cornwall, | :10:28. | :10:33. | |
where they are familiar but not at university -- universally loved | :10:33. | :10:37. | |
part of the landscape. In Dorset there are plans for a big wind farm | :10:37. | :10:42. | |
of the coast and there are plans that say the county could | :10:42. | :10:46. | |
accommodate up to 360 onshore probings. In practice it would not | :10:46. | :10:50. | |
be practical to have that many and says that wind farms will only be a | :10:50. | :10:54. | |
small part of the renewable energy mix, but protesters are still | :10:54. | :10:58. | |
worried. Wind energy has to be a major part | :10:58. | :11:08. | |
:11:08. | :11:11. | ||
of their proposal, and for reasons that are quite clear to us wind is | :11:11. | :11:17. | |
quite by far the least cost- effective way of producing energy | :11:17. | :11:21. | |
and reduces carbon emissions by the smallest amount of any renewable | :11:21. | :11:24. | |
resource we feel it is a flawed approach. | :11:24. | :11:27. | |
So a big row in Dorset, but there's also a much bigger political row | :11:27. | :11:30. | |
behind this, isn't there? Yes, because Dorset's conservative | :11:30. | :11:35. | |
count -- Conservative County Council is following the strategy | :11:35. | :11:40. | |
drawn up by the Conservative Government in Westminster which is | :11:40. | :11:44. | |
unpopular by a many Conservative MPs, who are prole wind. | :11:44. | :11:48. | |
Interestingly enough, the present Home Secretary before the | :11:48. | :11:52. | |
Conservatives winning Government was down in Dorset protesting | :11:52. | :11:55. | |
against one particular wind farm, so this seems to be joining an | :11:55. | :12:00. | |
increasingly long list of policies some Conservatives are uneasy about, | :12:00. | :12:03. | |
because they think it risks the Government moving away from what | :12:03. | :12:08. | |
they see as traditional Conservative values and potentially | :12:08. | :12:11. | |
alienating their core vote. The more run this on the Sunday | :12:11. | :12:16. | |
politics? And Year's come at midday. -- Moore on this. | :12:16. | :12:19. | |
Yes, at midday. You're watching Spotlight from the | :12:19. | :12:26. | |
BBC. Thanks for joining us. To it is the Grand National | :12:27. | :12:31. | |
tomorrow and this horse behind me has a chance of doing well in the | :12:31. | :12:36. | |
big steeplechase. And in the last of our series on the Titanic we | :12:36. | :12:39. | |
find out about the welcome the surviving crew got when they were | :12:39. | :12:41. | |
brought to Plymouth. Some of the region's best-known | :12:41. | :12:44. | |
chefs are cooking up a treat at the Exeter Festival of South West Food | :12:44. | :12:47. | |
and Drink which got underway today. The annual event attracts more than | :12:47. | :12:50. | |
15,000 people and celebrates many of the best culinary delights from | :12:50. | :12:58. | |
across the South West. Spotlight's From Venice and sausages to a drop | :12:58. | :13:04. | |
of metal wine, there is something from for -- for every palate. -- | :13:04. | :13:10. | |
Venice and sausages. It is an unashamed celebration of the | :13:10. | :13:15. | |
region's food and drink. We have recognised that the South | :13:15. | :13:18. | |
West as one of the best larders into Europe and definitely in the | :13:18. | :13:24. | |
UK, and we are recognising it is a blight -- great place to come. | :13:24. | :13:26. | |
Upstanding natural beauty and we give people a little food memory to | :13:26. | :13:30. | |
take away with them. This is our mature farm hopes | :13:30. | :13:34. | |
chapter. Exeter castle is a great location | :13:34. | :13:38. | |
in the heart of Exeter. People like knowing what is going on in their | :13:38. | :13:42. | |
own country and beyond. It is nice to know someone whose food you are | :13:42. | :13:46. | |
reading has grown it not far from where you live. We are embracing | :13:46. | :13:49. | |
that concept, that it is better to eat things that have not travelled | :13:49. | :13:55. | |
very far, and to buy British, particularly in the current climate, | :13:55. | :13:59. | |
to really support your neighbours and your country. It there are more | :13:59. | :14:02. | |
than 100 producers exhibiting here and this year the festival is | :14:02. | :14:07. | |
giving a helping hand to those new to the industry, giving them a real | :14:07. | :14:12. | |
taste of what it is all about. Our I started off making this at | :14:12. | :14:16. | |
home for myself. I was looking for a way to solve the breakfast | :14:16. | :14:20. | |
problem. I can't stand eating the same serial over and over, so I | :14:20. | :14:26. | |
wanted something I could change every time I ate it. I came up with | :14:26. | :14:35. | |
gravel, refined different recipes. Then I started selling it. -- | :14:35. | :14:40. | |
granola. A thousands are expected at this | :14:40. | :14:43. | |
event, which continues until Sunday evening. | :14:43. | :14:47. | |
That looks lovely, doesn't it? Time for the sport and the | :14:47. | :14:50. | |
weekend's top story is undoubtedly the Grand National. Dave's been to | :14:50. | :14:52. | |
visit one of the South West's best hopes. | :14:52. | :14:54. | |
I have indeed. The 165 Grand National gets | :14:54. | :14:58. | |
underway tomorrow. The discernible racing fans have already started to | :14:58. | :15:02. | |
back a North Devon horse - the Victor Dartnall trained Giles Cross. | :15:02. | :15:05. | |
It is the first National for the combination, but one which they | :15:05. | :15:15. | |
:15:15. | :15:17. | ||
Giles Cross relishes an uphill challenge. He is one of the best | :15:17. | :15:22. | |
staying, handicapped traitors in the country, trained by Victor on | :15:22. | :15:27. | |
the edge of Exmoor. The ten-year- old seems perfectly suited to a | :15:27. | :15:31. | |
world's greatest steeplechase at Aintree and he is on top form. | :15:31. | :15:36. | |
He won the National a few weeks ago then went to the Welsh National | :15:36. | :15:39. | |
where he finished second for the second year running, then followed | :15:39. | :15:44. | |
that up with wedding that crashed - - Grand National Trial at Haydock. | :15:44. | :15:48. | |
He has looked after by Sarah Dixon, and Victor knows he is in good | :15:48. | :15:52. | |
hands, having been pretty -- prepared meticulously. | :15:52. | :15:58. | |
She doesn't just look after him, she dotes on him. Sarah would sleep | :15:58. | :16:05. | |
with him if... All night, to protect him, if we asked her to. | :16:05. | :16:11. | |
She thinks the world of the horse. It is victor and Giles Cross's | :16:11. | :16:14. | |
first Grand National experience, so how will they be on the big day? | :16:14. | :16:17. | |
The I am very lucky to have a horse that is so fancied. | :16:17. | :16:24. | |
A lot of trainers have not got one good enough to run. He is a lovely, | :16:24. | :16:30. | |
honest, genuine horse, jumps very well, stays and that it's great to | :16:30. | :16:34. | |
be going up there. It is good for the yard, too, to have a runner in | :16:34. | :16:38. | |
the race. Four years ago, Comply Or Die won | :16:38. | :16:42. | |
the National for another Devon trainer, coming trip -- second 12 | :16:42. | :16:47. | |
months later. He has not running in the race this year, but David has | :16:47. | :16:54. | |
high hopes of repeating this feat with junior. Swinging Bill also | :16:54. | :16:57. | |
represents that same yard in what promises to be another exciting and | :16:57. | :16:59. | |
tense afternoon. You can see the whole race from | :17:00. | :17:02. | |
Aintree at 4.15pm here on BBC One tomorrow afternoon. | :17:02. | :17:05. | |
Exeter City could be relegated tomorrow if they lose at bottom-of- | :17:05. | :17:08. | |
the-table Rochdale. On the other hand, if Paul Tisdale's team win | :17:08. | :17:11. | |
they will have an outside chance of they will have an outside chance of | :17:11. | :17:16. | |
escaping the bottom four danger positions in League One. Yeovil | :17:16. | :17:19. | |
Town can assure their future in the division by beating play-off | :17:19. | :17:23. | |
hunting Stevenage at Huish Park. In League Two, Torquay United's | :17:23. | :17:25. | |
automatic promotion credentials will be strengthened if they | :17:25. | :17:27. | |
overcome fifth-placed Southend at Plainmoor, while Plymouth Argyle | :17:27. | :17:35. | |
look to cause a shock at leaders Swindon Town. It is all ticket for | :17:35. | :17:43. | |
Exeter Chiefs have three games left to guarantee a place in rugby's | :17:43. | :17:46. | |
European Heineken Cup for next season. Chiefs skipper Tom Hayes | :17:46. | :17:50. | |
and coach Rob Baxter know they have to finish in the top six to achieve | :17:50. | :17:54. | |
that, and a win at Worcester tomorrow will help them. The | :17:54. | :17:57. | |
Cornish Pirates need just one more win to reach the semi-finals of the | :17:57. | :18:01. | |
Championship play-offs. But they have to beat group leaders Bedford | :18:01. | :18:04. | |
at Penzance on Sunday to do it in coach Chris Stirling's farewell | :18:04. | :18:09. | |
match. Plymouth Albion, already safe from relegation worries, could | :18:09. | :18:19. | |
:18:19. | :18:21. | ||
condemn Esher to the drop if they win in Surrey. | :18:21. | :18:27. | |
Lovely to have cricket back. 11 wickets have fallen at Edgbaston | :18:27. | :18:31. | |
today where Somerset are involved in a tussle with Warwickshire. Here | :18:31. | :18:36. | |
is the scorecard. The hosts were dismissed for 243 in their first | :18:36. | :18:42. | |
innings. Somerset closed on 127- four. | :18:42. | :18:51. | |
Marcus Trescothick again failed with the bat, scoring only 10. | :18:51. | :18:54. | |
Finally, Plymouth Devils hope to get the better of West Country | :18:54. | :18:57. | |
rivals Somerset Rebels in speedway's Premier League Cup. | :18:57. | :19:00. | |
That's at Highbridge tonight with the return tie at the St Boniface | :19:00. | :19:10. | |
Arena tomorrow evening. Have a lovely weekend, let's hope | :19:10. | :19:13. | |
all the horses come through intact in the Grand National. | :19:13. | :19:17. | |
Thank you, Dave. Many of us look back on our | :19:17. | :19:19. | |
childhood with fond memories of long happy summers in glorious | :19:19. | :19:22. | |
weather with few worries about safety. But was it always like that | :19:22. | :19:26. | |
or is it a case of looking back through rose tinted glasses? A | :19:26. | :19:29. | |
special project has been taking place in St Ives in Cornwall to see | :19:29. | :19:32. | |
how childhoods of the 1930s compare to today. Spotlight's Matt Pengelly | :19:32. | :19:40. | |
There are some things guaranteed to keep children happy, and at the | :19:40. | :19:44. | |
seaside is one of them, but where things better in the olden days, | :19:44. | :19:48. | |
when the family photos were black and white? And where people happier | :19:48. | :19:58. | |
:19:58. | :19:59. | ||
then? Padstow student Catherine Mycock has been a asking some | :19:59. | :20:01. | |
veterans hope Abbey their girl could swear. Iris has lived here | :20:01. | :20:08. | |
Remembers when you could come out of a pub and see an elephant. | :20:08. | :20:13. | |
It was lovely, the harbour and all the beaches, it was lovely, playing | :20:13. | :20:20. | |
all the lovely games. We were never bored. We had to spend all summer | :20:20. | :20:25. | |
in the holidays down on the sand. All down there from morning till | :20:25. | :20:33. | |
night. I found it was very hard, illnesses | :20:33. | :20:35. | |
and men wear out fishing, but people do a lot happier because | :20:35. | :20:39. | |
they played games and worked as a family. I am surprised how happy | :20:39. | :20:43. | |
they wear and that everyone looked after each other and felt happy. | :20:43. | :20:49. | |
St Ives has a hip -- which history and a well-stocked archive of | :20:49. | :20:52. | |
images. Whenever the photos come out there are always volunteers to | :20:52. | :20:59. | |
put names to faces. Are today's youngsters spot in comparison? | :20:59. | :21:03. | |
We were certainly happier. We had playgrounds which were natural | :21:03. | :21:08. | |
playground. We had the harbour, the bolts, climbing apparatus, the | :21:08. | :21:15. | |
ropes, ladders. Everyone lived cheek by jowl, | :21:15. | :21:19. | |
inside their houses, the children played in the water on the beaches, | :21:19. | :21:23. | |
in the streets. Even I remember doing that sort of thing when I was | :21:23. | :21:27. | |
young. Now it does not happen any more. | :21:27. | :21:30. | |
To be fair, there were a few children and keeping happy the old | :21:30. | :21:38. | |
way and having a great time today. They're having a lovely time with | :21:38. | :21:41. | |
the seaweed. It was 100 years ago tomorrow that | :21:41. | :21:43. | |
the great liner Titanic struck an iceberg during her maiden voyage | :21:43. | :21:46. | |
from Southampton to New York. When the surviving crew of the Titanic | :21:46. | :21:49. | |
were brought back to England they were landed at Plymouth. But it | :21:49. | :21:53. | |
wasn't quite the warm reception they might have hoped for. John | :21:53. | :22:03. | |
:22:03. | :22:04. | ||
This is Mill Bay in Plymouth, and it was that these docks surviving | :22:05. | :22:09. | |
members of Titanic's crew were brought ashore. It was two weeks | :22:09. | :22:13. | |
after Titanic had been lost. Family members, friends and the press were | :22:13. | :22:17. | |
keen to talk to hear it first hand of the last moments on board the | :22:17. | :22:21. | |
ship. But officials from the Board of Trade and the White Star Line | :22:21. | :22:24. | |
had other ideas. They were landed here after they | :22:24. | :22:27. | |
came across the Atlantic on board the Lapland, and they were landed | :22:27. | :22:33. | |
on one of those tenders, and were brought in here. There are a lovely | :22:33. | :22:36. | |
old pictures of them, you can see them through the gates come and | :22:36. | :22:40. | |
they were detained here. Some of them detained themselves | :22:40. | :22:44. | |
voluntarily, because they did not want to talk to the press until | :22:44. | :22:48. | |
they had representation from their union. | :22:48. | :22:53. | |
167 of Titanic's crew landed at Plymouth, including 20 stewards and | :22:53. | :22:56. | |
restaurant staff. None could leave until officials had taken | :22:56. | :23:00. | |
statements from each of the survivors. Plymouth was a regular | :23:00. | :23:05. | |
calling point for large liners, the docks offering a swift transition | :23:05. | :23:09. | |
from C to rail. The nerd out in the Plymouth Sound | :23:09. | :23:17. | |
and passengers were brought in on some of the tenderers. They were | :23:17. | :23:21. | |
landed here at the docks and could easily get onto the trains and head | :23:21. | :23:25. | |
towards London. Details of how the ship sank are | :23:25. | :23:30. | |
well-documented, but wonder for a moment what would become a Titanic | :23:30. | :23:34. | |
had she avoided disaster in the Atlantic? She would have continued | :23:34. | :23:39. | |
to serve the White Star Line, and like many winners at the time she | :23:39. | :23:43. | |
would have called here, at Plymouth. That would have been a magnificent | :23:43. | :23:53. | |
:23:53. | :23:56. | ||
A magnificent sight, indeed. It would have been. | :23:56. | :24:00. | |
It is no time for the weather forecast, we have had all sorts | :24:00. | :24:03. | |
forecast, we have had all sorts this week. How does it look no? | :24:03. | :24:12. | |
It looks a bit must -- mixed, but we have had some April showers, | :24:12. | :24:19. | |
from Kew Milne and as clouds, generating rain and he'll storms. - | :24:19. | :24:29. | |

- genial and Indus. -- cumulonimbus. The cloud is giving frequent | :24:35. | :24:39. | |
showers, and all will be able have some clear skies tonight it will | :24:39. | :24:44. | |
not be as clear as last night and limited frost, unlikely -- we are | :24:44. | :24:51. | |
likely to see showers through until the end of the night. This weather | :24:51. | :24:55. | |
front to moral moves away from us and by Sunday we have a ridge of | :24:55. | :24:59. | |
high pressure, Thistle fine weather on Sunday. On Monday and into | :24:59. | :25:03. | |
Tuesday, look what happens, and Newt area of low pressure turns up, | :25:03. | :25:09. | |
meaning it will be windy and there will be a lot of rain and for some | :25:09. | :25:14. | |
that will be very welcome. You can see where the show was might have | :25:14. | :25:17. | |
been today, some of them quite heavy. They have now move doubly | :25:17. | :25:21. | |
from a large part of southern Devon, but north of that there are still | :25:21. | :25:26. | |
some hefty downpours of rain. This was earlier today in Plymouth where | :25:26. | :25:30. | |
there was some sunshine. Plymouth did quite well today with the | :25:30. | :25:34. | |
sunshine to stop you can see the cloud in the distance and showers | :25:34. | :25:44. | |
:25:44. | :25:46. | ||
were never far away. With light winds, quite a pleasant day, and in | :25:46. | :25:48. | |
the sunshine temperatures are responding nicely. To model will be | :25:49. | :25:53. | |
different, a lot more cloud and some frequent showers. They will | :25:53. | :25:57. | |
fade away for a time tonight and return in the early hours of the | :25:57. | :26:02. | |
morning. Through tomorrow we will have a lot more cloud, so not quite | :26:02. | :26:07. | |
such a bright start to the day tomorrow. Chilly again, with a few | :26:07. | :26:12. | |
places starting above freezing, but more of a breeze to stir the air | :26:12. | :26:16. | |
and more cloud means it will be less frosty. All will tomorrow | :26:16. | :26:21. | |
there will be sunny spells cloud is extensive and thick. Persistent | :26:21. | :26:26. | |
rain over a large part of Devon and Cornwall all blown in on a fresh, | :26:26. | :26:30. | |
north-easterly breeze. You will need to wrap up warmly tomorrow. We | :26:30. | :26:35. | |
may see 11 or 12 Celsius on the south coast of Dell at -- on death | :26:35. | :26:43. | |

rain will move in here, as well. Here is the coastal waters forecast, | :27:08. | :27:16. | |
more of a breeze tomorrow compared to today, and as we move into | :27:16. | :27:20. | |
Sunday a frosty start but a fine day on Sunday. Next week, 10 or 11 | :27:20. | :27:28. | |
Celsius, breezy and at times quite wide. Have a nice weekend. | :27:28. | :27:33. |
