:00:15. > :00:19.A teenager from Cornwall describes the moment she was rescued from a
:00:19. > :00:22.tall ship as it smashed against the rocks. Good evening. The Astrid got
:00:22. > :00:26.into difficulties off the coast of Ireland prompting a major rescue
:00:27. > :00:32.operation. Tonight we'll hear Katie Spencer's account of what happened.
:00:32. > :00:36.It's just weird to think how lucky we were to get off because I just
:00:36. > :00:42.wouldn't imagine something like that happening. You just don't realise
:00:42. > :00:52.how serious it is until to you watch it back and think, oh, my gosh.
:00:52. > :00:53.
:00:53. > :01:03.Also, triple amputee becomes the first person to receive state-of-the
:01:03. > :01:03.
:01:03. > :01:07.art bionic limbs on the NHS. And we An insurance company says
:01:07. > :01:09.sorry after sending letters to a woman they KNEW had died. And we
:01:09. > :01:12.speak to Plymouth schoolgirl and world champion swimmer Ruta
:01:12. > :01:15.Meilutyte about her next challenge. A teenager from Cornwall has
:01:15. > :01:18.described the dramatic moment when a sailing boat she was on started
:01:19. > :01:22.sinking. Rescuers say it's a miracle everyone survived when the tall ship
:01:22. > :01:26.Astrid lost power and hit rocks off the Irish coast last week. Katie
:01:26. > :01:29.Spencer, who lives in Looe, was one of 30 people onboard the training
:01:29. > :01:34.vessel. We'll hear from her in a moment, but first John Henderson
:01:34. > :01:38.describes how events unfolded. On her side on rocks in rough seas.
:01:38. > :01:41.But all those onboard the Astrid - her seven strong crew and 23
:01:41. > :01:44.teenagers - were rescued. I think it's an absolute miracle that you
:01:44. > :01:54.have a situation like that and you get 30 people that literally walk
:01:54. > :01:57.
:01:57. > :02:00.away from this sort of disaster and without a scratch. It's unheard of.
:02:00. > :02:04.This footage from the RNLI shows one of the Astrid's liferafts used to
:02:04. > :02:07.get 12 people to safety. The rest were picked up by lifeboats. In all
:02:07. > :02:10.four were involved in the rescue, along with two helicopters from the
:02:10. > :02:13.Irish Coastguard. It's a credit to the training of our emergency
:02:13. > :02:23.services. If it had been another ten or 15 minutes, we might have been
:02:23. > :02:25.
:02:25. > :02:28.talking about a totally different talking about a totally different
:02:28. > :02:32.story. The Astrid is well known in the waters around the south-west.
:02:32. > :02:35.Spotlight was on board the 42 metre sail training vessel in 1998
:02:35. > :02:39.following a refit. For a while she was based in Weymouth. She was there
:02:39. > :02:43.again, just a week before she was blown onto rocks. For now there's a
:02:43. > :02:46.200 metre exclusion zone around the wreck, which is said to be badly
:02:46. > :02:49.damaged with a slim chance the Astrid will ever sail again.
:02:49. > :02:52.15-year-old Katie Spencer from Looe, who's a pupil at Devonport High
:02:52. > :02:56.School for Girls in Plymouth, was onboard the Astrid. I asked her how
:02:56. > :03:01.the alarm was raised. I was downstairs, and I was just - I had
:03:01. > :03:05.to go to sleep, and someone came down stairs and was like, "Everybody
:03:05. > :03:10.up. Get up on deck and put a life jacket on." We were like, what's
:03:10. > :03:14.happening? We got up there and realised the engine had powered off
:03:14. > :03:18.and we were drifting towards the rocks. At that stage, did you know
:03:18. > :03:22.how serious things were going to get? We thought it was a precaution.
:03:22. > :03:25.We didn't really realise until we got close to the rocks that it was
:03:25. > :03:31.really serious. So you were still onboard when the ship was hitting
:03:31. > :03:36.the coast, the rocks? Yeah, we were all sat down at the back and kind of
:03:36. > :03:40.holding onto the boat and were being hit against the rocks. How did the
:03:40. > :03:46.evacuate of the ship unfold? How did you all get off? Whilst we were
:03:46. > :03:53.being hit against the rocks, a little motor boat from the RNLI came
:03:53. > :03:57.over. They were taken away in that, and the other 18 of us got away in a
:03:57. > :04:02.lifeboat. Some of your colleagues were already off, but you were still
:04:02. > :04:06.on the ship? Yeah, I saw them going away. What was going on in your mind
:04:06. > :04:11.at that moment? I felt we were going to get off, but it was just kind of
:04:11. > :04:17.like, when will we get off because we were hitting against the side.
:04:17. > :04:23.Time went on forever. Take us through when you were going to get
:04:23. > :04:29.off the boat? This is your life raft? Yeah, I was in that. We got
:04:29. > :04:34.towed away and taken to a really big RNLI boat which took us to a town,
:04:34. > :04:38.and we stayed there and kind of had some food and stuff. We have heard
:04:38. > :04:41.from RNLI people since who said to get everyone off safely was a
:04:41. > :04:46.miracle. When you hear that now, what do you think? It's just weird
:04:46. > :04:50.to think how lucky we were to get off because you just wouldn't
:04:50. > :04:53.imagine something like this happening. You kind of don't realise
:04:53. > :04:57.how serious something like this is until you watch it back and think,
:04:57. > :05:02.my gosh! The only thing you managed to get off the ship with apart from
:05:02. > :05:09.the clothes you were wearing is your phone? When you got on to dry land,
:05:09. > :05:14.how were you looked after? When we got on to dry land we were taken to
:05:14. > :05:17.the yacht club where they had showers, and a hotel nearby gave us
:05:17. > :05:20.clothes, so we all kind of managed to make do with that then just some
:05:20. > :05:25.local people were like, yeah, you can come stay with us for the night.
:05:25. > :05:29.So that was great, and yeah, everyone just gave us food and
:05:29. > :05:36.clothes, which was quite good. a remarkable story. Thank you very
:05:37. > :05:40.much indeed for telling us about it. That's all right.
:05:40. > :05:43.A former Royal Marine from Plymouth who lost three limbs in Afghanistan
:05:43. > :05:52.is the first veteran to receive new state-of the art "bionic" legs on
:05:52. > :05:56.the NHS. Mark Ormrod feared he would have to remortgage his home to pay
:05:56. > :05:59.for the new limbs. But he's now able to benefit from a share of �11
:05:59. > :06:08.million set aside for veterans by the Government. Here's our defence
:06:08. > :06:13.reporter Scott Bingham. MarkOrmrod continues to take everything in
:06:13. > :06:17.stride. He has been at this clinic since morning working hard with
:06:17. > :06:22.physiotherapists to get used to his new legs. They should help a man who
:06:22. > :06:28.has already overcome so many obstacles to take just a few more.
:06:28. > :06:32.lot of it was my thing, you know, but confidence issues before -
:06:32. > :06:37.carrying my young children around - my son was very young. I didn't want
:06:37. > :06:40.to carry him around, but with these, because they're more stable, I'm
:06:40. > :06:46.more confident I'll be able to carry the kids around and help out a lot
:06:46. > :06:56.more around the house and do stuff than I felt before. The bionic
:06:56. > :06:58.
:06:58. > :07:01.element is the genium knee joint - developed in Germany. It's packed
:07:01. > :07:04.with the latest technology such as gyroscopes, accelerometers and a
:07:04. > :07:07.micropocessor to closley mimic the functions of a natural knee, making
:07:07. > :07:09.everyday tasks that much easier. People have the ability to walk
:07:09. > :07:12.upstairs. It's something we all take for granted, but for an afternoon
:07:13. > :07:19.you tee, it's nearly impossible. It's a little movement pattern. It
:07:20. > :07:23.senses he's going do it, then helps him get upstairs. Just six months
:07:23. > :07:26.ago Mark faced having to remortgage his home to pay for the legs, but
:07:26. > :07:30.now thanks to �11 million of Government funding, he's the first
:07:30. > :07:33.veteran to get these new limbs on the NHS. They cost around �50,000
:07:33. > :07:39.each, but experts say that's good value compared to many other
:07:40. > :07:42.treatments. Some of those are just to maintain a certain level, whereas
:07:42. > :07:46.we're actually getting people back walking, back out into the
:07:46. > :07:51.community, back working, back with their families and really enhancing
:07:51. > :07:55.their lives. Mark says veteran amputees should
:07:55. > :07:59.make use of the funding while it's still available.

:08:02. > :08:05.in Exeter for five days is appealing for people to check out buildings.
:08:05. > :08:15.Today 25 specialist officers have been searching for Alma Royle, who
:08:15. > :08:17.
:08:17. > :08:25.has dementia. Hamish Marshall specialist officers have been
:08:25. > :08:27.combing this area since Sunday. Even in summer, five nights out in the
:08:27. > :08:34.elements is very dangerous For Alma's daughter it's waiting,
:08:34. > :08:39.worrying but hoping. I have to be real realistic. It's just to know
:08:39. > :08:43.where she is - because of the dementia she could be living in
:08:43. > :08:48.another house with someone who she thinks is her husband because she
:08:48. > :08:52.has been looking for my dad. That I don't know. I can always cling onto
:08:52. > :08:55.that hope. Alma has been widowed for five
:08:55. > :08:59.years. She's physically well but recently she's got more confused.
:08:59. > :09:02.She was last seen in this store near her home last Friday. When her
:09:02. > :09:05.daughter failed to make contact with her on Saturday, she raised the
:09:05. > :09:10.alarm. The concern was that fence along there - that might be there.
:09:10. > :09:15.We've cleared all At the control centre careful note
:09:15. > :09:18.is kept of which places have and haven't been searched. That. 25
:09:18. > :09:22.specialist police officers are involved in the search, and they're
:09:22. > :09:29.going to be joined by members of the Dartmoor Rescue group they're
:09:29. > :09:32.looking at an area of 1.6 kilometres because research shows dementia
:09:32. > :09:37.sufferers don't normally wander that much further than that.
:09:37. > :09:41.It's a really steep drop through extreme extremely thick undergrowth.
:09:42. > :09:46.We have had the helicopter out with imaging. We have had scent dogs go
:09:46. > :09:49.through, but that is extremely problematic. We have to take into
:09:49. > :09:52.account it's dangerous for officers to search as well.
:09:52. > :09:59.Alma has lived in Exeter for nearly 30 years. She doesn't have her
:09:59. > :10:02.glasses or bus pass. The search for her in this area goes on.
:10:02. > :10:05.A widower from Devon has spoken of his distress after an insurance
:10:05. > :10:11.company sent two letters addressed to his late wife advertising health
:10:11. > :10:14.insurance even though they knew she was dead. The letters from Aviva
:10:14. > :10:17.were addressed to June Davies "deceased". The company has
:10:17. > :10:23.apologised and says its changed the way it works to ensure it won't
:10:23. > :10:28.happen again. Our south Devon reporter John Ayres has more.
:10:28. > :10:32.John Davies lost his wife June ten years ago. A few months ago, out of
:10:32. > :10:35.the blue, Aviva sent a letter to her advertising health insurance. The
:10:35. > :10:39.address on the front acknowledged she was deceased. Mr Davies
:10:39. > :10:49.complained. They apologised and said they wouldn't do it again, except
:10:49. > :10:50.
:10:50. > :10:58.they have. I got the first and I went aPLO President-Electic. I mean,
:10:58. > :11:03.what -- apoplectic. What does one do? You get a letter, and it's an
:11:03. > :11:08.insurance policy. They even spelled "deceased wrong". I am going what is
:11:08. > :11:14.going on here? So I rang up obviously very, very- it was
:11:14. > :11:23.traumatic. His wife June was a concert pianist, produced musicals
:11:23. > :11:33.and taught music. She had cancer when she died. Some difficulty with
:11:33. > :11:58.
:11:58. > :12:05.the information I'd sent you? Yeah, saying this will not happen again,
:12:05. > :12:14.and it has done. It's just unbelievable - total incompetence,
:12:14. > :12:18.total incompetence with a national , big, international company.
:12:18. > :12:20.It's been a distressing time for Mr Davies. He's hoping now that another
:12:20. > :12:23.letter doesn't arrive, bringing it all up again.
:12:23. > :12:29.Cornwall Council is to close two of its residential children's homes
:12:29. > :12:32.after both had been described as inadequate by inspectors. They are
:12:32. > :12:36.also reviewing the future of the county's three other homes. The
:12:36. > :12:39.council says it wants to re-invest the money into other ways of caring
:12:39. > :12:45.for children who need help. It's understood more children will now be
:12:45. > :12:49.given temporary homes with families. Eleanor Parkinson reports.
:12:49. > :12:53.17-year-old Connor spent three months in a children's home when he
:12:53. > :12:57.was 15. He temporarily moved out of his family home because of his
:12:57. > :13:01.challenging behaviour. He's now back with his family and say his stay in
:13:01. > :13:07.residential care helped with his problems. The time away helped, the
:13:07. > :13:11.fact that I didn't have my dad around to argue with, the care I am
:13:11. > :13:14.offered - as much support as possible, which was really helpful,
:13:14. > :13:19.the fact I was mixing with other young people who also had troubles
:13:19. > :13:28.at home, talked to them. But the council is now closing two of its
:13:28. > :13:36.children's homes, one in Cam born and one in less guard. Both homes
:13:36. > :13:40.had been criticised as inadequate in their recent Ofsted inspections. The
:13:40. > :13:45.council says they want to change the way they care for vulnerable
:13:45. > :13:50.children, and they now believe they do better when placed in a family
:13:50. > :13:53.setting. We all know how important a family unit is for a child and a
:13:53. > :13:57.young person's development. That's what we need to look at, is trying
:13:57. > :14:03.to keep those children who are at risk in the family unit where it's
:14:03. > :14:06.at safe or in the wider family or fostering, so they get that family
:14:06. > :14:11.environment, growing new a loving, nurturing world so it sets them up
:14:11. > :14:15.right for life. The councillor said it is also reviewing the future of
:14:15. > :14:19.the county's three other children's homes. It's said although the plan
:14:19. > :14:25.isn't financially driven, a councillor reported that placing a
:14:25. > :14:28.child into a family setting is more cost effective.
:14:28. > :14:32.Residents in the St Ives area no longer need to boil their tap water
:14:32. > :14:34.before drinking it. More than a thousand homes have had to boil
:14:34. > :14:37.water used for drinking, cooking, washing food and cleaning teeth
:14:37. > :14:40.since Sunday. It was after abnormal levels of colyform bacteria were
:14:40. > :14:50.found in the sealed reservoir serving the area. South West Water
:14:50. > :14:56.says test results are now clear. After a disastrous start, this
:14:56. > :14:59.year's harvest is on course to be a big improvement on last year's. The
:14:59. > :15:02.long cold winter and a very late spring meant farmers ploughed some
:15:02. > :15:05.crops back into the ground and started again, but the hot weather
:15:05. > :15:09.of recent weeks appears to have saved the day. Our environment
:15:09. > :15:14.correspondent Adrian Campbell reports.
:15:14. > :15:19.This summer looks set to be a good harvest. These fields of oil-seed
:15:19. > :15:23.rape have managed to escape the worst of last summer's washout. Now,
:15:23. > :15:28.despite everyone's fears, they're set to deliver a very healthy crop.
:15:28. > :15:32.Some of the crops didn't survive the winter, had to be ripped up, pulled
:15:32. > :15:36.up, redrilled again in the spring, but the year so far has been fairly
:15:36. > :15:40.kind to what's survived and what's gone in this spring. Going back to
:15:40. > :15:44.February, March time, things were locking really dire. The crops were
:15:44. > :15:48.looking poor. Everything was looking poor. They pulled through, and
:15:49. > :15:52.surprise, surprise, the crops have turned out good. Will says this
:15:52. > :15:56.year's prices for crops reflect the weather conditions both here and
:15:56. > :16:01.around the globe. The better weather means more crops, but the economics
:16:01. > :16:07.of supply and demand means their value has dropped. Last year wheat
:16:07. > :16:12.was around 180 pounds a tonne, but this year it's around �160. It's a
:16:12. > :16:19.similar story for oil-seed rape, and feed barley has also shown a drop in
:16:19. > :16:23.price. Will and his son Charles closely monitor all their crops.
:16:23. > :16:28.They use a special metre to check on the moisture content. Too much
:16:28. > :16:31.moisture can delay the harvest. Charles says he expects more extreme
:16:31. > :16:36.weather events in the future, but they're a real challenge. At the
:16:37. > :16:40.moment, it's worrying to see the sort of very cold spring we had, and
:16:40. > :16:44.then this warm heatwave last year. There was a lot of rain. At the
:16:44. > :16:52.moment, there is no real trend, so it is very difficult to sort of plan
:16:52. > :16:55.and to forecast and really to meet and to adapt to these changes.
:16:55. > :17:01.Despite all the recent setbacks, the harvest is looking good. That should
:17:01. > :17:04.help consumers with lower prices. It's been quite a week for Plymouth
:17:04. > :17:07.college student Ruta Meilutyte, notching up a world record and
:17:07. > :17:10.taking the world champion title. Tonight she's back in the training
:17:10. > :17:13.pool as she prepares for her next challenge at the World
:17:13. > :17:16.Championships. But the 16-year-old, who swims for Plymouth Leander and
:17:16. > :17:26.Lithuania, joined us earlier from Barcelona, along with her coach John
:17:26. > :17:28.
:17:28. > :17:35.Rudd. I'm really, really happy with all semithree swims, yeah, but I
:17:35. > :17:39.will still try to keep focussed for the upcoming events, 50 breaststroke
:17:39. > :17:44.and... That's right. You're only halfway through your meet so far.
:17:44. > :17:49.Tomorrow are the heats for the 100 metres freestyle. What are your
:17:49. > :17:54.chances like for that? I think the field is really really fast, and I
:17:54. > :17:59.don't think I have a really big chance of making the semi, but yeah,
:17:59. > :18:04.I'm just going to go out there, have fun, and hopefully, I can go under
:18:04. > :18:09.the 55-second mark. That's all I want to do, and yeah, that's all.
:18:09. > :18:17.The 50-metre title could now be well in your sights. How about a 50-metre
:18:17. > :18:22.world record as well? Um, I'm pretty close, and yeah, I don't know. I'll
:18:22. > :18:27.just do my best and see what happens. So John, you're the coach.
:18:27. > :18:30.Your job done really, so far, is it? It's a part of a job done because as
:18:30. > :18:35.she sea, we've still got another big event to swim on Saturday and
:18:35. > :18:39.Sunday, but yeah, I couldn't be more happy to come here and watch her
:18:39. > :18:44.take a world record and then the following day pick up the gold medal
:18:44. > :18:49.to add to her Olympic gold. It's a fantastic achievement for her and
:18:49. > :18:54.extremely gratifying for me. After she set the world record, going into
:18:54. > :18:58.the final, how did you prepare her for what was coming up? Clearly, at
:18:58. > :19:02.that point she was the hot favourite to take the title. We always do the
:19:02. > :19:06.same thing in the same way. It's one of the things I think we're good at
:19:06. > :19:10.is we keep everything regular and normal. We've always said we can't
:19:10. > :19:13.control what anybody else does, and we just focus on the way that she
:19:13. > :19:18.races. That's what we did for the semifinal for the record and the
:19:18. > :19:22.final for the medal. It was, concentrate on your swim, your way,
:19:22. > :19:26.shut out anything else that's going on. It's one of the reasons why
:19:26. > :19:32.she's a special athlete, because she's able to do that. You are just
:19:32. > :19:37.16. You hold the Olympic title. You hold the world title. You hold the
:19:37. > :19:42.world record. Is there anything left for you to achieve? I think the main
:19:42. > :19:49.focus - the long-term goal is the Rio Olympics. Like I said, we're
:19:49. > :19:55.just taking it every year step by step. Yeah, my main focus is on the
:19:55. > :19:59.Olympics, yeah. Ruta Meilutyte and John Rudd, thank you very much.
:19:59. > :20:07.Congratulations. The whole of Plymouth and the whole of the
:20:07. > :20:10.south-west is very proud of you. Thank you. This is hard to believe.
:20:10. > :20:13.The new football season is only three days away and the current
:20:13. > :20:16.economic climate will certainly dictate how the four South West
:20:16. > :20:19.clubs will do. Over the next few nights we'll find how they're
:20:19. > :20:22.preparing for the season ahead starting with Exeter City and
:20:22. > :20:30.Torquay United in League Two. Spotlight's Dave Gibbins has been
:20:30. > :20:33.meet two club stalwarts. Julian Tagg is Mr Versatile. In his
:20:33. > :20:36.17 years at Exeter City, he's coached the youngsters, was a
:20:36. > :20:39.leading figure when the fans rescued City from the brink of extinction,
:20:39. > :20:43.became vice-chairman and is now Chief Executive. The situation at St
:20:43. > :20:46.James' Park is simple: there's no money to spend. So how does that fit
:20:46. > :20:50.in with their new season plans? Well, it's nice to report we're
:20:50. > :20:53.probably the richest club in the country. Look at me, nonplussed. I
:20:53. > :20:58.am not surprised by the criteria of the richest clubs of the country -
:20:58. > :21:01.it's because we don't owe anything. In the same breath you could say
:21:01. > :21:05.we're probably the poorest club in the country because if something
:21:05. > :21:09.goes wrong - we had problems with the wall, unexpected finance, there
:21:09. > :21:13.is no backup. There is no bank overdraft. There is no chairman that
:21:13. > :21:19.is going to step in. There are no board of directors that are going to
:21:19. > :21:23.suddenly put in �4,000, 5,000, �10,000 each. Depending on the
:21:23. > :21:27.context you want to put it in, we're either the richest club in the
:21:27. > :21:31.country or the poorest. Dean Edwards is about to commence
:21:31. > :21:34.his eighth year at Torquay United. First as a player, now as Commercial
:21:34. > :21:37.Manager. He's a living legend at Plainmoor, becoming the first Devon
:21:37. > :21:41.footballer to score at Wembley back in 1989. Two years later, he scored
:21:41. > :21:44.again in United's next appearance at the national stadium. Now, he has a
:21:44. > :21:54.key role in making sure Torquay swell their budget, despite an
:21:54. > :21:55.
:21:55. > :22:01.average gate last season of only 2,700. They only see what - what are
:22:01. > :22:05.the costs. For us, behind the scenes is all the day-to-day running,
:22:05. > :22:09.ordering paper and photocopiers and things like that. It's a massive
:22:09. > :22:13.amount of money that needs to be generated. I think without the
:22:13. > :22:16.commercial department, every club would struggle.
:22:16. > :22:26.Without the likes of Torquay and Exeter, football would be far beyond
:22:26. > :22:27.
:22:27. > :22:29.the reach of the average supporter. In two places at once - the amazing
:22:29. > :22:39.Dave Gibbons. Tomorrow, Dave talks to Plymouth
:22:39. > :22:42.Argyle owner and chairman James Brent.
:22:42. > :22:45.Now, crowds have been flocking to the annual Yealmpton Agricultural
:22:45. > :22:48.Show in Devon today. Last year's show had to be cancelled because of
:22:48. > :22:51.the bad weather.but this year, despite a few showers, it was
:22:51. > :22:53.business as usual for the show organisers. Spotlight's Andy Breare
:22:53. > :22:56.reports. After last year's wash-out summer,
:22:56. > :22:59.it was full steam ahead this morning as the Yealmpton show got underway.
:22:59. > :23:02.It's held in the beautiful surroundings of the Kitley estate
:23:02. > :23:04.and attracts visitors and exhibitors from far and wide. It's just a
:23:04. > :23:07.lovely atmosphere. We're blessed with such a beautiful site. It's a
:23:07. > :23:11.natural amphitheatre, really. We try to use it to best advantage so that
:23:11. > :23:16.people have a good view and can see what's going on. There is quite a
:23:16. > :23:19.focal point with the main ring, but lots going on in other rings out and
:23:19. > :23:22.around. Someone who's a regular at the show
:23:22. > :23:26.is beef farmer Suzanne Harper from Holsworthy.and today, her cattle
:23:26. > :23:34.were proving to be rather popular with the judges. We have just taken
:23:34. > :23:41.first prize with our six-year-old cow. It's a lot of work. It's weeks
:23:41. > :23:46.of breaking and halter training because the -- they need to be
:23:46. > :23:49.bringing them out amongst the public in the show ring, then the grooming
:23:49. > :23:53.and the shampooing and the travelling and the feeding - yes,
:23:53. > :24:00.it's a lot of work, but we enjoy it. One of the things that's new at this
:24:00. > :24:04.year's show is the food and produce tent where some well-established
:24:05. > :24:08.Devon companies are exhibiting their war effects. All the bakers worked
:24:08. > :24:12.overnight to get everything here fresh. The cakes were made yesterday
:24:12. > :24:17.afternoon. Everything is fresh we sell. What would be your best seller
:24:17. > :24:23.today? It would be our ugly bun which has its own Twitter account
:24:23. > :24:28.and Facebook page. Sorry, this is bread with a Facebook account?
:24:28. > :24:32.it's a bun, actually. It has 750 followers. The weather may have been
:24:32. > :24:38.overcast today, but after last year's washout, everyone was pleased
:24:38. > :24:42.the Yealmpton AgriculturalShow was back in style.
:24:42. > :24:50.Good to see the weather wasn't too much of a problem for the show. It's
:24:51. > :24:55.tomorrow. Temperatures are really picking up. We could see the mid to
:24:55. > :24:58.high 20s for some tomorrow. It's a one-day-only offer. By Friday it
:24:58. > :25:01.feels much fresher again. Good evening to you. Yes, a very misty
:25:01. > :25:06.start to the day tomorrow for many of us, particularly in western areas
:25:06. > :25:08.of Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly. Further to the south-east we should
:25:08. > :25:12.see warm sunshine and warmer temperatures through the day
:25:12. > :25:15.tomorrow. Let's start with a look at the satellite picture through the
:25:16. > :25:19.day. You can see the massive cloud that brought us showers through this
:25:19. > :25:22.morning and for much of the day today, moving further north through
:25:22. > :25:26.this evening. If we look at that on the chart, we've currently got rain
:25:26. > :25:30.for the Midlands, the north of the country and the north of Wales. For
:25:30. > :25:37.us, though, into tomorrow, we're fairly clear of weather fronts. Just
:25:37. > :25:41.keep an eye on this one to the west. Further to the east, we're clear of
:25:41. > :25:44.those weather fronts, so it's a drier day. We've got warm, humid air
:25:45. > :25:49.being drawn in from the continent through the day tomorrow. By Friday,
:25:50. > :25:53.though, that front has crossed us, bringing much fresher air and a
:25:53. > :25:58.mixture of sunshine and showers. This evening, you can take a closer
:25:58. > :26:02.look at those showers as as they move to the north-east. Tomorrow, a
:26:02. > :26:07.fair amount of cloud. A fair amount of low cloud, mist and fog over the
:26:07. > :26:11.moors and hills, some sea fog, particularly along the south coast.
:26:11. > :26:15.Fairly light winds to the east. Always breezier to the west and the
:26:15. > :26:19.Isles of Scilly. It's a warm, humid night to come. Temperatures holding
:26:19. > :26:23.up around 15-16 Celsius for most, so fairly tricky to sleep once again.
:26:23. > :26:26.As we start the day tomorrow, I think there will be a fair amount of
:26:26. > :26:30.cloud around at first. We hold onto that cloud in western areas. Further
:26:30. > :26:35.to the east, though, the sun does burn through and brings us a fairly
:26:35. > :26:41.nice day, and the temperatures will respond accordingly in those light
:26:41. > :26:45.winds. We could see for east Devon, Somerset, 20 Celsius. To the west,
:26:45. > :26:49.cooler than that, just down in the low 20s under the cloud. We could
:26:49. > :26:54.see a few breaks into the afternoon for the isles of silly. It's
:26:54. > :27:04.generally a fairly cloudy day with mist and fog at first. Looking at
:27:04. > :27:08.
:27:08. > :27:16.Surf-wise, not too bad along the north shore. Here we're seeing 3-4
:27:16. > :27:21.feet, choppier further to the south. The winds south, south-west 4-6,
:27:21. > :27:25.occasional drizzle with fog patches, low visibility in fog patches.
