challenge. The South West sees the biggest rise in young people who are | :00:13. | :00:17. | |
not in education, employment or training. | :00:17. | :00:23. | |
Good evening. There's been a 61% increase in just a decade. Tonight, | :00:23. | :00:25. | |
we'll investigate why and hear from some of those who've been struggling | :00:25. | :00:32. | |
to find a job. Two to the recession having a big | :00:32. | :00:37. | |
impact on every company, I have found it very difficult, handing out | :00:37. | :00:43. | |
CDs and asking for positions. Also, the whistle-blowers staging a | :00:43. | :00:49. | |
sit in. The former workers are protesting over lost earnings. | :00:49. | :00:53. | |
And, aiming high, the chairman of Plymouth Argyle reveals his | :00:53. | :00:56. | |
ambitious plans for the league two club and city. | :00:56. | :01:01. | |
You look at the totality, it is one of the biggest developments since | :01:01. | :01:11. | |
:01:11. | :01:13. | ||
the rebuilding after World War II. There's been a dramatic increase in | :01:13. | :01:17. | |
the number of young people in the region who are described as NEETs. | :01:17. | :01:21. | |
That's not in education, employment or training. New figures reveal the | :01:21. | :01:25. | |
wider South West has seen the biggest increase in the country. The | :01:25. | :01:31. | |
number of NEETs has increased by 61% in the last ten years. In 2003, | :01:31. | :01:33. | |
there were an estimated 52,000 NEETs in the greater South West. Today, | :01:33. | :01:36. | |
it's thought to be around 84,000. One in three say they feel they have | :01:36. | :01:45. | |
no chance of getting a job. Working for an engineering firm does | :01:45. | :01:50. | |
not always getting -- does not always mean getting your hands | :01:50. | :01:55. | |
dirty. Alex Allsop has been using a different set of tools to improve | :01:55. | :01:59. | |
this company's website. You think about engineers, you hear the | :01:59. | :02:05. | |
noise, you think, I am not sure how I will fit in, but everybody has | :02:05. | :02:09. | |
been lovely. She graduated four years ago, she is doing paid work | :02:09. | :02:14. | |
experience, funded by the employer and an organisation called Unlocking | :02:14. | :02:18. | |
Potential. It is fantastic for businesses, it allows them to tap | :02:19. | :02:24. | |
into fresh graduate talent, to help them to do something in their | :02:24. | :02:28. | |
business that they otherwise could not. For graduates, that is | :02:28. | :02:34. | |
fantastic, it gives them real-life work experience. They can | :02:34. | :02:39. | |
demonstrate what they are capable of. It has been a great project, I | :02:39. | :02:43. | |
feel like I am doing something measurable that I can use in the | :02:43. | :02:48. | |
future, I have picked up some new skills, it builds your confidence. | :02:48. | :02:53. | |
But how did you find a job when you are homeless? The aim of this | :02:53. | :02:57. | |
charity is to bring down unemployment levels among 17 to 30 | :02:57. | :03:02. | |
rolls by helping to rebuild their lives. But there is no magic wand. | :03:02. | :03:06. | |
In terms of long-term, a lot of companies are trying to keep off of | :03:06. | :03:11. | |
hiring long-term people as opposed to short-term. It is very difficult | :03:11. | :03:16. | |
to find something. The charity says one of the problems facing young | :03:16. | :03:20. | |
people is that many cannot afford to move where the jobs are. If you are | :03:20. | :03:28. | |
unemployed at 25, you are nobody's priority, and you will end up in | :03:28. | :03:32. | |
Private accommodation, asking for a deposit and a month of rent in | :03:32. | :03:36. | |
advance. When you have been on benefits for several months, it is | :03:36. | :03:41. | |
difficult to find the money. graduates, not all of them are | :03:41. | :03:47. | |
suffering. This dental school claims 100% of students have gained | :03:47. | :03:50. | |
employment. Jonathan started work today. I cannot tell you how | :03:50. | :03:55. | |
fortunate I feel. It was a big stress beforehand, but I consider | :03:55. | :04:00. | |
myself to be very lucky to have found a job in Plymouth. | :04:00. | :04:05. | |
Cornwall, Alex's work experience is coming to an end. She has secured a | :04:05. | :04:09. | |
graduate-level job in marketing. Earlier, I spoke to the author of | :04:09. | :04:12. | |
the report, Professor Robin Simmons from the University of Huddersfield. | :04:12. | :04:15. | |
I asked him why the South West had seen the biggest increase in | :04:15. | :04:23. | |
youngsters who not in education, employment or training. | :04:23. | :04:29. | |
It is a combination of factors. In many ways, much of this is a result | :04:29. | :04:35. | |
of the labour market. There is a mismatch between the demand for | :04:35. | :04:39. | |
labour and the supply of qualified young people. In certain niche | :04:39. | :04:43. | |
areas, it is relatively straightforward for young people to | :04:43. | :04:48. | |
get jobs. For example, dentistry, medicine, and other high skilled | :04:48. | :04:53. | |
areas. There is a good match between the young people who qualified for | :04:53. | :05:01. | |
those areas and the jobs available. But in general, there is oversupply | :05:01. | :05:07. | |
of labour. What needs to change in terms of young people positioning | :05:07. | :05:11. | |
themselves for the right job and for the job is to be created? In terms | :05:11. | :05:17. | |
of individual young people, they need to be thinking strategically | :05:17. | :05:20. | |
about the kind of education and training that will equip them for | :05:20. | :05:26. | |
the labour market, think about their ambitions and job opportunities. | :05:26. | :05:29. | |
Education and training are important, and they need to think | :05:29. | :05:35. | |
about that carefully in choosing their route. What needs to change in | :05:35. | :05:38. | |
terms of government policy? Unemployment generally has been on a | :05:38. | :05:42. | |
downward trend, but youth unemployment has been stubborn, so | :05:42. | :05:46. | |
what needs to change to alter the unemployment rate? It is | :05:46. | :05:52. | |
interesting, partly it is due to employer recruitment strategies. | :05:52. | :05:58. | |
Often, they prefer to employ alternative workers. For example, | :05:58. | :06:02. | |
women returners, older workers, migrant workers are often employed | :06:02. | :06:11. | |
to do jobs that young people would have been doing ten or 20 years ago. | :06:11. | :06:15. | |
Part of it is about employer strategy. More broadly, we need to | :06:15. | :06:20. | |
be stimulating the demand for labour. There needs to be a change | :06:20. | :06:26. | |
in broader economic holiday. What we need is what I call a youth | :06:26. | :06:31. | |
resolution, the idea that various organisations working with young | :06:31. | :06:35. | |
people need to sign up to this, about generating opportunities for | :06:35. | :06:40. | |
them. Whether they are education and training bodies, employers, local | :06:40. | :06:45. | |
authorities, they need to port their resources to assist young people | :06:45. | :06:52. | |
entering work. Two former workers at a Plymouth | :06:52. | :06:55. | |
care home who blew the whistle on failing standards are staging a | :06:56. | :06:58. | |
sit-in at the home over lost earnings. Residents were moved out | :06:58. | :07:02. | |
of the Park View home in Plymouth last month by the City Council's | :07:02. | :07:12. | |
:07:12. | :07:12. | ||
safeguarding team. Making a stand, Rosemary Parker and | :07:12. | :07:17. | |
Launa Llewellyn-Jones were awarded �40,000 between them for loss of | :07:17. | :07:20. | |
earnings and unfair dismissal by an employment tribunal in May. They | :07:20. | :07:25. | |
lost their jobs at the home after reporting concerns about how elderly | :07:25. | :07:29. | |
residents at the Park view were being treated. He was not looking | :07:29. | :07:33. | |
after his residence properly, we would bring food in ourselves, we | :07:34. | :07:39. | |
would bring juice, toilet rolls, everything that they needed in the | :07:39. | :07:45. | |
home. They did not have that, we had to stay there to help them. The home | :07:45. | :07:51. | |
is owned by Nick Chapman, who runs this residential care company. Since | :07:51. | :07:54. | |
winning their tribunal, the women still have not been paid, and so | :07:54. | :07:58. | |
this week they decided to take matters into their own hands and | :07:58. | :08:02. | |
stage a sit in at the home. We have spoken to a solicitor before coming | :08:02. | :08:07. | |
in, he said we have got to do what we have got to do to get our | :08:07. | :08:12. | |
payment. And stop him owning another care home. We have the police here | :08:12. | :08:18. | |
yesterday, quite a few of them, and they have said that we have got the | :08:18. | :08:24. | |
right, we can stay in there, as long as there is no criminal damage. We | :08:24. | :08:28. | |
have not taken anything out of the property. We just want justice. So | :08:28. | :08:33. | |
far, we have not been able to get hold of Mr Chapman, but the former | :08:34. | :08:37. | |
workers say they will continue to sit in for as long as it takes to | :08:37. | :08:41. | |
get their money. Cornwall Council made a profit of | :08:41. | :08:44. | |
almost �8 million from parking charges and fines in the last | :08:44. | :08:47. | |
financial year. It's one of only two authorities | :08:47. | :08:51. | |
outside London to make it into the top ten in the country. The research | :08:51. | :08:54. | |
by the RAC Foundation has revealed that councils across England made a | :08:54. | :09:04. | |
:09:04. | :09:10. | ||
Parking charges and fines, along with fuel prices, are a hot topic | :09:10. | :09:14. | |
for motorists. The RAC Foundation says its figures come from the local | :09:14. | :09:18. | |
authorities themselves. They show that, outside London and Brighton | :09:18. | :09:23. | |
and Hove, Cornwall makes the most profit from its car parks. �7.9 | :09:23. | :09:28. | |
million for the last year that figures were available. Cornwall | :09:28. | :09:33. | |
Council has a range of charges, depending where its car parks are. | :09:33. | :09:37. | |
This one is said to be one of the most expensive. It is �4 40 if you | :09:37. | :09:43. | |
want to park for four hours, longer than that, it is �5 60. What do you | :09:43. | :09:49. | |
make of the charges? Disgusting, too much money, they will drive people | :09:49. | :09:55. | |
out of the town. It is ridiculous. Not happy at all. I should not have | :09:55. | :09:59. | |
thought anyone would be. Some authorities break even or make a | :09:59. | :10:02. | |
loss on their car parks, but Cornwall is happy to justify its | :10:02. | :10:07. | |
large profit. We do make a lot of money, that has always been the | :10:07. | :10:14. | |
case, we have a lot of car parks and visitors. The money we make, �8 | :10:14. | :10:18. | |
million a year, if we did not make it, without have to cut services and | :10:18. | :10:22. | |
put council tax up. You are not ashamed to be the only authority | :10:23. | :10:28. | |
outside the south-east to be making so much profit? We are one of the | :10:28. | :10:32. | |
largest authorities in the country, twice the size of Brighton and, | :10:32. | :10:37. | |
three times the size of a London borough, it is not surprising it is | :10:37. | :10:41. | |
quite large. The council says it cannot afford to make them free. It | :10:41. | :10:50. | |
is used to helping investing in infrastructure, like the roads. | :10:50. | :10:53. | |
Now, hands up if you'd like to pay less for fuel. Well, the benefits | :10:53. | :10:56. | |
that islanders on Scilly are seeing in cheaper petrol could soon apply | :10:56. | :10:59. | |
to parts of Devon and Cornwall. The Government's to carry out research | :10:59. | :11:05. | |
to see if a five-pence-per-litre subsidy could work on the mainland. | :11:05. | :11:09. | |
Today, we found the cost of a litre of unleaded ranging from �1.33 to | :11:09. | :11:19. | |
:11:19. | :11:21. | ||
The nearest petrol station, more than five miles away. You use up a | :11:21. | :11:25. | |
litre just getting to and from it. We have to travel a long way to get | :11:25. | :11:35. | |
our services, 15 or 16 miles each time to pick up the basics. Reducing | :11:35. | :11:40. | |
taxation rather than giving money back. A subsidy to reduce prices has | :11:40. | :11:44. | |
been deemed a success on the Isles of Scilly and the Scottish island. | :11:44. | :11:48. | |
Devon and Cornwall are now under consideration. What remains to be | :11:48. | :11:52. | |
seen is whether this is real enough to qualify. The government will | :11:52. | :11:56. | |
assess data from petrol stations around Devon and Cornwall to find | :11:56. | :12:00. | |
out which places are most expensive when it comes to buying fuel. The | :12:00. | :12:06. | |
decision does not just rest with the government. We have to go through a | :12:06. | :12:10. | |
process with the European commission, and get approval from | :12:10. | :12:13. | |
other member states before we can apply this. We do to have the most | :12:13. | :12:18. | |
robust data available that is possible. That is why we are taking | :12:18. | :12:25. | |
this step. In East Evan, Rob Gibbons likes the idea. But he worries about | :12:25. | :12:29. | |
how it will be implement it on the mainland. Does it work on parish | :12:29. | :12:34. | |
boundaries? Dorset boundaries, Devon boundaries? How they will maintain | :12:34. | :12:41. | |
it is beyond me. But 5p a litre is huge. Nobody knows how much fuel | :12:41. | :12:45. | |
will cost if the scheme ever comes This could be tough for the | :12:45. | :12:49. | |
Government to get through Europe. To explain it a little more is our | :12:49. | :12:54. | |
Political Editor, Martyn Oates. So, how likely is this to happen? | :12:54. | :13:00. | |
we asked Danny Alexander about this a year ago, he poured cold water on | :13:00. | :13:04. | |
it, he said that people on the mainland in Cornwall should not hold | :13:04. | :13:07. | |
their breath about this happening. Today, the government has decided it | :13:07. | :13:13. | |
will have a go at trying to make that happen, but clearly, the big | :13:13. | :13:16. | |
obstacle of getting to European approval remains. That is a big | :13:16. | :13:21. | |
challenge, not least because this has only been granted for islands, | :13:21. | :13:27. | |
not as big as Britain. And what happens now? There is a | :13:27. | :13:30. | |
consultation, and petrol retailers are being invited to produce | :13:30. | :13:36. | |
evidence that the petrol they have sold in the last three months was at | :13:36. | :13:42. | |
or above a certain level. The government is politely advising | :13:42. | :13:46. | |
petrol retailers selling petrol below those levels to not bother to | :13:46. | :13:51. | |
fill in the forms and send them back. While Devon and Cornwall are | :13:51. | :13:54. | |
being invited to take part, no such invitation for people in Somerset | :13:54. | :14:02. | |
and Dorset. The fire-fighters' union says it's | :14:02. | :14:05. | |
furious that the Chief Fire Officer in Devon and Somerset, who | :14:05. | :14:09. | |
introduced �5 million of cuts, is to give up working fulltime for the | :14:09. | :14:13. | |
service to take up an advisory post. Lee Howell is joining the Welsh | :14:13. | :14:23. | |
:14:23. | :14:23. | ||
Government as one of Her Majesty's The battle over cuts to the fire | :14:23. | :14:26. | |
service in Devon and Somerset was a long and passionate one. The | :14:26. | :14:30. | |
community 's help protest and covered petitions. But three weeks | :14:30. | :14:36. | |
ago, the cuts were approved by the fire authority. Now it has emerged | :14:36. | :14:40. | |
the man who oversaw them, Lee Howell, is to go part-time to take | :14:40. | :14:45. | |
up a job advising the Welsh government. That has caused anger. | :14:45. | :14:48. | |
There are huge issues about how we can implement the cuts without | :14:48. | :14:54. | |
putting firefighter and public safety at greater risk. It takes a | :14:54. | :14:58. | |
lot of effort to manage. If nobody is coordinating it, we are going to | :14:58. | :15:04. | |
have chaos. That is not acceptable to us and should not be to the | :15:04. | :15:08. | |
public. He should have been transparent and said, I am helping | :15:08. | :15:12. | |
to implement these, but I will not be here to put them through. I would | :15:12. | :15:19. | |
not have minded if he had said that. What he is leaving behind is harsh | :15:19. | :15:23. | |
reality that people could be burned alive in their beds or their cars | :15:23. | :15:28. | |
because of these cuts. The �5 million cuts will affect Plymouth, | :15:28. | :15:32. | |
Torquay, Ilfracombe and Taunton. Lee Howell will work for up to two days | :15:32. | :15:37. | |
a week on his new job, the position runs for two years. He is away on | :15:38. | :15:41. | |
leave and was not available for interview, but in a letter, he says | :15:41. | :15:46. | |
the money from the role will be paid directly to the fire authority. He | :15:46. | :15:49. | |
says he has considerable experience of handling two major roles at the | :15:49. | :15:53. | |
same time he has confidence in senior colleagues to continue to | :15:53. | :15:57. | |
improve the service, and he adds he will continue to put the needs of | :15:57. | :16:05. | |
Devon and Somerset Fire and rescue service first and foremost. | :16:05. | :16:09. | |
A man whose sister died in child birth from a rare condition has run | :16:09. | :16:12. | |
seven marathons in just one week to raise money for charity. Lisa Joy | :16:12. | :16:15. | |
died from an amniotic embolism. Today, her brother Mark arrived in | :16:15. | :16:23. | |
Cornwall to complete the last leg of his fundraising journey. | :16:24. | :16:28. | |
Mark Choy is reunited with his family after a gruelling week. He | :16:28. | :16:32. | |
has just completed seven marathons in seven days. To raise awareness | :16:32. | :16:35. | |
about a medical condition which took the life of his sister and her | :16:36. | :16:42. | |
unborn son. Lisa Joy had gone into labour, hoping to give birth to her | :16:42. | :16:47. | |
son, when she collapsed. We went to Essex, excited, she was in labour, | :16:47. | :16:54. | |
we travelled up, expecting wonderful things, it was such a shock, she | :16:54. | :17:01. | |
died in my arms. She had died from an amniotic fluid embolism, a rare | :17:01. | :17:05. | |
condition in which fluid escapes into the mother's bloodstream. Her | :17:05. | :17:10. | |
sister was also expecting her first child at the same time. We both went | :17:10. | :17:13. | |
through pregnancy together, so excited, when we found out she was | :17:13. | :17:21. | |
going to have a boy, I was going to have... We thought they would grow | :17:21. | :17:27. | |
up together. It was not to be. Mark has run seven marathons in seven | :17:27. | :17:32. | |
days, starting in Dublin and ending in Cornwall. It is difficult to talk | :17:32. | :17:41. | |
about things. Having a focus helps. For us to talk about them, but also | :17:41. | :17:44. | |
for the charity, to try to do something to ensure other mothers | :17:44. | :17:48. | |
and babies do not suffer the same thing. It is hoped the money that he | :17:48. | :17:52. | |
raises will help other expectant mothers and fund research into the | :17:52. | :18:02. | |
condition that claimed the life of his sister and her baby. | :18:02. | :18:06. | |
Time now for the second part in our build-up to the new football season, | :18:06. | :18:09. | |
which gets under way this Saturday. Tonight, it's the turn of Plymouth | :18:09. | :18:19. | |
:18:19. | :18:20. | ||
Argyle, and their owner and chairman After flirting with relegation to | :18:20. | :18:23. | |
non-league football for the past two years, James Brent does not want to | :18:23. | :18:29. | |
experience more trauma will stop the house, other ideas. The first was | :18:29. | :18:33. | |
the appointment of a new chief executive, from South West rivals | :18:33. | :18:37. | |
Yeovil Town. Next, to bulldoze the antiquated Mayflower stand and | :18:37. | :18:41. | |
complete the modern age home Park stadium. It will transform from this | :18:41. | :18:50. | |
to this, subject to cancel approval. We think it will generate an | :18:50. | :18:53. | |
additional �1 million a year. As we go up through the leagues, it | :18:53. | :18:58. | |
creates more as you sell hospitality packages at a higher price. In terms | :18:58. | :19:01. | |
of financially supporting the club going up the leaks, it is an | :19:01. | :19:06. | |
important part of the equation. Starting work in the autumn, it will | :19:06. | :19:12. | |
enable us to complete the grandstand and the new 1500 seater arena by the | :19:12. | :19:18. | |
end of 2014. For the whole context to be finished by the middle of | :19:18. | :19:25. | |
2015. The total cost is �50 million. Of that, �10 million is the cost of | :19:25. | :19:30. | |
the new grandstand. Because of his busy schedule with other business | :19:30. | :19:34. | |
interests, a lot of responsible to false on his Batman, who is forming | :19:34. | :19:40. | |
a business plan with the manager, John Sheridan. The club is a compact | :19:40. | :19:46. | |
space financially. If additional revenues are coming in, from gate | :19:46. | :19:52. | |
receipts or TV appearances, it does give us more to work with. The more | :19:52. | :19:56. | |
successful we are on the pitch, the more likely we are to generate more | :19:56. | :20:00. | |
revenue, which will help us go on to further success. There is a fresh | :20:00. | :20:05. | |
wind blowing through at the moment, James Brent is hoping it will blow | :20:05. | :20:09. | |
Plymouth Argyle further up the league ladder in order for them to | :20:09. | :20:13. | |
make more money. Tomorrow we will be looking at how Yeovil Town will | :20:13. | :20:20. | |
adapt to life in the Championship. Mothers who choose to breast-feed | :20:20. | :20:23. | |
say they still suffer discrimination when they're feeding their children | :20:23. | :20:27. | |
in public in some parts of the region. A number of cafes in East | :20:27. | :20:30. | |
Devon were recently invited to put up a poster publicising that | :20:30. | :20:33. | |
breast-feeding mums would be welcome at their premises. 90% of the cafes | :20:33. | :20:43. | |
:20:43. | :20:44. | ||
Any breast-feeding mother will tell you that when a baby needs feeding, | :20:44. | :20:49. | |
it needs feeding there and then. This cafe welcomes nursing mothers, | :20:49. | :20:54. | |
but it would appear that it is one of only a queue. I have had friends | :20:54. | :20:58. | |
who have establishments either asking them to leave or asking them | :20:58. | :21:05. | |
to sit in a different area, or even one had a large screen pulled in | :21:05. | :21:10. | |
front of them. I find it unbelievable. This group has been in | :21:10. | :21:13. | |
a garage in cafes to take part in a voluntary scheme publishing that | :21:13. | :21:18. | |
they welcome breast-feeding mothers. But of the cafes they have | :21:18. | :21:23. | |
approached so far, 90% have said no. The cafes we contacted were | :21:23. | :21:26. | |
reluctant to talk. It would appear the issue is that they are concerned | :21:26. | :21:29. | |
about what their other customers would think if a woman is | :21:29. | :21:35. | |
breast-feeding. " a lot of establishments, they probably have | :21:35. | :21:39. | |
women breast-feeding there all the time, they just do not notice, but | :21:39. | :21:44. | |
when questioned, if they would support a mother, that is where it | :21:44. | :21:46. | |
became unstuck, because they felt they did not want to support the | :21:46. | :21:55. | |
breast-feeding, they wanted to support the other customers. It is | :21:55. | :22:00. | |
divisive, it is going to make people feel second-class. It is a shame it | :22:00. | :22:03. | |
has drawn this publicity, especially to Exmouth, which has got a lot of | :22:03. | :22:09. | |
good things going for it, suddenly we become hostages to this sort of | :22:09. | :22:13. | |
negative publicity. The group insists this is not a witchhunt, | :22:13. | :22:18. | |
they just want breast-feeding mothers to feel they are welcome. | :22:18. | :22:22. | |
It's the BBC's Summer of Wildlife season, and as part of that, the TV | :22:22. | :22:26. | |
naturalist Nick Baker and our very own Sam Smith have been discovering | :22:26. | :22:29. | |
the region's best urban wildlife. The programme Urban Jungle has found | :22:29. | :22:33. | |
that even if you live in the middle of the city, there are many | :22:33. | :22:43. | |
:22:43. | :22:46. | ||
There is an amazing variety of wildlife in our towns and cities, | :22:46. | :22:50. | |
and people, helping to look after it. We found wonderful wetland | :22:50. | :22:56. | |
wildlife in an old sewage works, swifts nesting in buildings in | :22:56. | :23:00. | |
Newquay, and Nick saw some aerial warfare over Exeter, featuring some | :23:00. | :23:05. | |
of our most exciting birds of prey. Tell us what is happening here. This | :23:05. | :23:10. | |
is a pair of Peregrine Vulcans nesting in Saint Michaels Church, | :23:11. | :23:14. | |
they are attacking a much bigger bird, a buzzard. Why are they doing | :23:14. | :23:20. | |
that? They are really aggressive at this time of year, their behaviour | :23:21. | :23:24. | |
is territorial, so they are protecting the chicks in the nest. | :23:24. | :23:31. | |
That is quite rare, we were really lucky to see it and film it. Nick | :23:31. | :23:35. | |
was incredibly excited. You have met people who are helping the wildlife. | :23:35. | :23:39. | |
There are some passionate people doing their bit. | :23:39. | :23:44. | |
Are you ready to start going bug hunting? Yes! | :23:44. | :23:49. | |
Those are children at the cemetery and the parents, trying to find | :23:49. | :23:53. | |
birds and bees and books and all sorts of insects. Spiders coming out | :23:53. | :23:59. | |
of the cracks in the stonework. As well as that, students in Cornwall | :23:59. | :24:03. | |
helping to conserve the Swift. We found some wonderful examples of | :24:03. | :24:10. | |
wildlife friendly gardening. That is on this evening. | :24:10. | :24:20. | |

7pm, BBC One. It will be a really this evening, it has been quite a | :24:24. | :24:30. | |
hot day. Not the hottest of the year so far, but temperatures getting up | :24:30. | :24:36. | |
to 28 or 29 degrees. Tomorrow is colder, a fresher feel. Some early | :24:36. | :24:42. | |
rain clearing, some sunshine, but will go the risk of sharp showers. A | :24:42. | :24:47. | |
lot going on in the middle of the Atlantic. This lump of cloud is an | :24:47. | :24:51. | |
area of low pressure. The cloud trails down to the western side of | :24:51. | :24:57. | |
Spain and Portugal. On this side, and a lot of warmth, that is why we | :24:57. | :25:03. | |
have had such high temperatures. The weather system will hop across the | :25:03. | :25:09. | |
UK overnight. More through the morning. Once it moves to the east | :25:09. | :25:12. | |
of us, we are back to their coming in off the Atlantic, fresher | :25:12. | :25:19. | |
conditions, and showers generated by the low pressure. By the time we get | :25:19. | :25:24. | |
into the weekend, it is a broad south-west flow, and the risk of | :25:24. | :25:29. | |
showers. By the time we get to Sunday, more persistent rain | :25:29. | :25:36. | |
arriving. We have got a fair amount of cloud across parts of Cornwall | :25:36. | :25:40. | |
and West Devon. Most of us have a lovely end to the day and a warm | :25:41. | :25:47. | |
evening. Later, the cloud will spill in off the Atlantic. We will stop to | :25:47. | :25:53. | |
see a future in outbreaks of rain. It turns misty. We will see some low | :25:53. | :25:58. | |
cloud, mist and fog. Although the rain is not especially heavy, do not | :25:58. | :26:02. | |
be surprised if you wake up with some dampness on the ground. There | :26:02. | :26:12. | |
:26:12. | :26:13. | ||
will be some overnight rain. Quite a warm night. Tomorrow, briefly, some | :26:13. | :26:17. | |
showery rain across Dorset and Somerset. For a good part of the | :26:17. | :26:22. | |
day, sunshine. Then, showers develop. These showers develop later | :26:22. | :26:29. | |
in the day. They could turn out to be heavy. Blow in on south-west | :26:29. | :26:34. | |
winds that will be fresh at times. The temperatures are lower tomorrow. | :26:34. | :26:40. | |
Colder than today. For the Isles of Scilly, sunshine, but the risk of | :26:40. | :26:50. | |
:26:50. | :26:59. | ||
some surfing, it is likely to be between three and five feet. That | :26:59. | :27:04. | |
continues through the days tomorrow. The cleanest serve will be sheltered | :27:04. | :27:14. | |
:27:14. | :27:19. | ||
bit more unsettled into the weekend. We will get away with fine weather | :27:19. | :27:24. | |
on Saturday. On Sunday, more persistent rain setting in. The | :27:24. | :27:27. |
