:00:00. > :00:17.A mine shaft opens up beside one of Cornwall's major roads.

:00:18. > :00:20.Good evening. Welcome to Spotlight. The shaft was discovered earlier

:00:21. > :00:24.today but tonight in a different part of the county the main route in

:00:25. > :00:30.and out of a village is cut off after the ground fell away there.

:00:31. > :00:37.I'm live in Troon where there's huge disruption for local people tonight

:00:38. > :00:41.after another hole opened up. More in a few moments. I'll report from

:00:42. > :00:44.across the county. Also tonight: Devon and Cornwall police facing

:00:45. > :00:48.more cuts. The force will have to save a further 30 million pounds on

:00:49. > :00:51.top of cuts of 50 million that are already being made.

:00:52. > :00:52.And parts of one of the regions newest, most expensive schools are

:00:53. > :01:00.facing a rebuild because of leaks. The main route between Penzance and

:01:01. > :01:05.Helston has been partially closed after a mineshaft opened on the edge

:01:06. > :01:08.of the road. Meanwhile a village in Cornwall remains effectively cut off

:01:09. > :01:19.after the main road began to subside. David George is in Troon

:01:20. > :01:25.near Camborne. Yes, it was earlier this month when

:01:26. > :01:29.a resident of Troon noticed the main road from Camborne into the village

:01:30. > :01:34.had begun to sink and there was a big hole in the road. He stopped his

:01:35. > :01:38.car and traffic and called police and the road was closed off and has

:01:39. > :01:45.remained closed ever since. More in a moment but first West Cornwall

:01:46. > :01:49.where this morning a man was walking his dog on what he thought was the

:01:50. > :01:56.pavement but it was covering a mine shaft. Early this morning one of the

:01:57. > :02:01.villagers was walking a dog on the pavement when he almost fell into a

:02:02. > :02:07.hole that appeared small but very very deep. As we watched,

:02:08. > :02:11.contractors for the council removed the thin layer of asphalt which was

:02:12. > :02:18.the only thing pedestrians were walking on. It is scary if you are

:02:19. > :02:23.walking at the time or if you are driving. Hundreds of times we have

:02:24. > :02:30.driven over there, lorries as well. It is serious. Luckily somebody did

:02:31. > :02:36.not fall down. This area was surrounded by Coppermine is and this

:02:37. > :02:43.is one of them. It is an impressive shaft, not massive but quite large

:02:44. > :02:49.at the top. It is typical 18th or 19th`century mineshaft. The council

:02:50. > :02:57.contractors have started working to make the area safe. The shaft is a

:02:58. > :03:02.3`.5 metres deep, it is voided below that down to another 3`.5 metres

:03:03. > :03:08.which is choked with material. We need to secure the shaft and the

:03:09. > :03:14.footway by pouring concrete and steel in the ground. Meanwhile, in

:03:15. > :03:19.Troon, the second week of being effectively cut off. It is unclear

:03:20. > :03:25.why the main road has subsided but for locals it means Aidid tour of

:03:26. > :03:30.four miles and no bus services. Disaster, especially for the schools

:03:31. > :03:40.in the morning. It is not good at all. Very tricky. We do not see much

:03:41. > :03:44.work happening here. In a statement by e`mail, the council said the

:03:45. > :03:48.contractors have been speaking to South West water and its contractors

:03:49. > :03:52.and repairs to damaged pipe work are being carried out and expect the

:03:53. > :03:59.roads to reopen at the end of next week, the 7th of February. You and I

:04:00. > :04:05.like the villagers assume this is caused by the heavy rainfall we have

:04:06. > :04:12.had for months but engineers will only say around water is a

:04:13. > :04:15.contributory factor. Spotlight has learnt that Devon and Cornwall

:04:16. > :04:17.police are facing another 30 million pounds worth of cuts. The

:04:18. > :04:21.information comes from sources within the force and the office of

:04:22. > :04:24.the Police and Crime Commissioner. We've also learnt a merger of the

:04:25. > :04:28.Major Crime Team with other forces across the greater south west, has

:04:29. > :04:32.been discussed to try to save money. This comes on top of the 50 million

:04:33. > :04:40.pounds of cuts already being made. Our home affairs correspondent Simon

:04:41. > :04:44.Hall has this exclusive report. This florist have seen attacks were

:04:45. > :04:48.the windows were smashed along with other anti`social behaviour outside.

:04:49. > :04:53.They fear policing is already suffering from previous cuts and are

:04:54. > :04:57.worried about the prospect of more. Every village, every town must

:04:58. > :05:04.suffer. You don't see as many bobbies as what you used to. You

:05:05. > :05:09.expect that with all of the cuts. The pressure on the police budget

:05:10. > :05:13.has grown so severe that a merger of the Major Crime Team investigating

:05:14. > :05:17.the most serious offences with other forces in the south`west has been

:05:18. > :05:23.discussed. It is all part of a wide`ranging search for savings. Our

:05:24. > :05:27.members are already working to capacity, the blue line is very thin

:05:28. > :05:32.and if we continue cutting it will have an impact on service delivery.

:05:33. > :05:38.The Police and Crime Commissioner Tony Hogg will ask for a 2% increase

:05:39. > :05:41.in the council taxes here in an attempt to protect services. That is

:05:42. > :05:47.the maximum that can be raised without the need for a referendum.

:05:48. > :05:50.No one from Devon and Cornwall Police or the Commissioners office

:05:51. > :06:07.could be interviewed. A spokesman said:

:06:08. > :06:12.The Home Office said getting the economy back on track meant a

:06:13. > :06:23.challenging funding settlement. These cuts send a clear message the

:06:24. > :06:28.austerity agenda continues and will expect it to do so for another four

:06:29. > :06:32.years. Coming on top of previous cutbacks, it raises the inevitable

:06:33. > :06:41.questions about what impact it will have on front line policing. It's

:06:42. > :06:43.the council tax season where local authorities set their charges for

:06:44. > :06:46.April onwards. The debate in recent years has

:06:47. > :06:50.centred on whether there should be a freeze but in one part of Dorset a

:06:51. > :06:53.fee of more than ten times the original amount has been suggested.

:06:54. > :06:57.Portland Town Council's part of the bill would rise from fourteen pounds

:06:58. > :07:05.fifty a year to one hundred and fifty pounds. It's provoked quite a

:07:06. > :07:10.reaction as Leigh Rundle reports. Five generations of this family have

:07:11. > :07:14.lived in Portland. He is leading the campaign against plans for huge

:07:15. > :07:19.increase in local taxes, the move would swell town council funding by

:07:20. > :07:23.an extra half ?1 million but at what cost? It is ridiculous to expect

:07:24. > :07:32.somebody to find that amount of money in this day and age ?14 50 to

:07:33. > :07:38.?150 is a big ask. Supporters are hard to find, 600 residents squeezed

:07:39. > :07:41.into the church for a council meeting to voice their concerns.

:07:42. > :07:49.Even the town mayor has threatened to resign. People are in a bad way.

:07:50. > :07:54.They must understand that under no way or any circumstances could I

:07:55. > :08:02.accept this if they outvote me then I must resign. Portland Town

:08:03. > :08:08.Council's role as service provider disappeared with the reorganisation

:08:09. > :08:11.in the 1970s, this latest bid for half ?1 million represents an

:08:12. > :08:14.attempt to get a handful of the services back but in the face of

:08:15. > :08:21.widespread opposition, there has been backtracking. Many people don't

:08:22. > :08:25.want a rise at all, they are quite happy to take the risk that services

:08:26. > :08:30.will keep diminishing with no organisation to fill the gap in the

:08:31. > :08:37.future. If that is what people want, I am happy to listen. This food bank

:08:38. > :08:42.was opened in November last year to help local people struggling to make

:08:43. > :08:47.ends meet, parts of Portland are in the top ten deprived areas in

:08:48. > :08:51.Dorset. Bearing this in mind, to expect local people to stump up the

:08:52. > :08:55.huge increase in council tax was optimistic, to say the least. Our

:08:56. > :08:59.Political Editor Martyn Oates joins me now from Westminster, Martyn

:09:00. > :09:07.Portland isn't alone in doing this, is it? The proposed increase is

:09:08. > :09:13.particularly large across the country, many parish councils made

:09:14. > :09:22.percentage increases in tax which were significantly bigger than the

:09:23. > :09:26.bigger councils at local government. These parish councils are saying on

:09:27. > :09:30.the one hand they are getting less support from the district above them

:09:31. > :09:35.but the same councils are piling more responsibilities on them so

:09:36. > :09:42.maintenance of public toilets is increasingly a parish concern. The

:09:43. > :09:47.other reason is because they can. Unitary borough county councils

:09:48. > :09:52.district cannot `` can only increase by 2% or more by referendum, parish

:09:53. > :09:54.councils do not need that, the local government minister repeated the

:09:55. > :09:59.government is not pleased with these parish increases and is considering

:10:00. > :10:07.opposing the restrictions. Thank you. Any patient treated by the

:10:08. > :10:10.disgraced surgeon Rob Jones during his 20 years at the Royal Cornwall

:10:11. > :10:13.Hospital may be eligible to claim for negligence. The hospital has

:10:14. > :10:16.signed a legal agreement for those who think they've suffered harm to

:10:17. > :10:19.have their case independently assessed. Some solicitors estimate

:10:20. > :10:27.there may 1000 claimants ` a figure challenged by the trust. Here's our

:10:28. > :10:33.Health Correspondent Sally Mountjoy. Rob Jones delivered the Prime

:10:34. > :10:36.Minister is youngest child in 2010. The Camerons later returns to the

:10:37. > :10:41.Royal Cornwall to thank him and the team. The years, staff and patients

:10:42. > :10:46.have made complaints about the obstetrician and his work was the

:10:47. > :10:52.subject of eight investigations. He was suspended in 2012. A review of

:10:53. > :10:58.patients he treated over to .5 years found concerns about 110. The trust

:10:59. > :11:03.has agreed a legal protocol that says anyone seen by Rob Jones in his

:11:04. > :11:07.career at Royal Cornwall could be eligible to claim for negligence.

:11:08. > :11:12.The trust isn't expecting large numbers of women to come forward but

:11:13. > :11:19.solicitors representing over 100 women estimate a total of 1000

:11:20. > :11:23.claimants. The principle is if an individual has suffered harm they

:11:24. > :11:26.can come forward and have this investigation which will provide

:11:27. > :11:31.them with answers and some will be told you are fine, there was no

:11:32. > :11:36.negligence, it was no 1's fault and others may be told you might be

:11:37. > :11:40.entitled to compensation. The protocol is unusual in removing the

:11:41. > :11:45.three`year time limit for medical injury claims. It gives women the

:11:46. > :11:48.chance to have their cases assessed by independent medical experts. It

:11:49. > :11:52.avoids the need to go to court and allows patients to bring a claim

:11:53. > :11:57.free of charge. Lawyers say the trust has taken a positive step.

:11:58. > :12:01.There have only been two examples in the country of this sort of

:12:02. > :12:06.procedural protocol being developed but nothing as sophisticated as

:12:07. > :12:12.Cornwall has negotiated. I can't see any reason why the NHS can't use

:12:13. > :12:17.this as a model throughout the country to get redress for patients

:12:18. > :12:21.who have been injured by NHS care. The trust said they have settled

:12:22. > :12:31.some cases but were looking forward to processing claims as quickly as

:12:32. > :12:37.possible under the new framework. This woman welcomes the legal

:12:38. > :12:41.agreement. It has been a long time getting to this point but it is

:12:42. > :12:45.positive and it means everybody will be treated fairly and within the

:12:46. > :12:51.protocol it is the best way to handle claims. Patients like Clare

:12:52. > :12:56.are still keenly awaiting the outcome of an enquiry by the GMC on

:12:57. > :13:06.the trusts handling of the Rob Jones case.

:13:07. > :13:10.The Romans had a road called the 303 and in the 1960s the talk was of it

:13:11. > :13:14.trying to gain super highway status. Today plans for one of the main

:13:15. > :13:18.routes in and out the South West were being considered once more. A

:13:19. > :13:21.study's begun to see whether work should be carried out so the A303

:13:22. > :13:24.could be opened up to more traffic. But what about the prized

:13:25. > :13:26.countryside it passes through? Here's our business correspondent

:13:27. > :13:32.Neil Gallacher. There are many faces of the A303, we

:13:33. > :13:36.filmed these shots needed Fulton at the reputation of the road spread

:13:37. > :13:41.far and wide. St Austell Brewery in Cornwall is one of many firms that

:13:42. > :13:46.feel the whole corridor is up June `` due for an upgrade. We want one

:13:47. > :13:51.major trunk road right through these counties so we can get to and from

:13:52. > :13:55.the area as quickly as possible. The A303 is shorthand for a couple of

:13:56. > :14:00.roads making up the second main artery into the region through

:14:01. > :14:05.Somerset and Devon. The A303 leaves the M3 in Hampshire and heads west

:14:06. > :14:11.past Stonehenge wiggling its way towards Ilminster. When it nears

:14:12. > :14:15.Honiton it becomes the A30 and at Exeter joins the M5. One of the

:14:16. > :14:22.biggest problems is it goes through the Blackdown Hills. These have been

:14:23. > :14:25.an area of natural beauty since 1991, and isolated landscape with

:14:26. > :14:31.distinctive ridges, woodland and valleys. Because of this, recently,

:14:32. > :14:39.successive governments have considered encouraging traffic to

:14:40. > :14:43.divert northwards up the A358. Nothing much has been done on the

:14:44. > :14:51.ground, this consultation covers the whole route which they are now

:14:52. > :14:54.calling the A303 slash A30 corridor. Nothing is ruled in or

:14:55. > :15:01.out. The government documents gives one clear hint. We do not propose to

:15:02. > :15:08.consider large`scale road`building that area. Environmentalists have

:15:09. > :15:13.fought bitterly over this route in the past and remain wary. If they

:15:14. > :15:17.are talking about major capacity increases drawing extra traffic into

:15:18. > :15:20.the Blackdown Hills we and other countryside campaigners would have

:15:21. > :15:23.concerns. If they are talking about minor

:15:24. > :15:28.things to improve safety that is something we don't have an issue

:15:29. > :15:32.with. We will see the first actual proposals from government by the end

:15:33. > :15:38.of the summer but no decisions are likely this side of a general

:15:39. > :15:41.election. Parts of one of Devon's newest and

:15:42. > :15:44.most expensive schools might have to be rebuilt because they're leaking.

:15:45. > :15:47.Dartington Primary School, near Totnes, was rebuilt four years ago

:15:48. > :15:50.as a seven million pound eco building. But now the pupils are

:15:51. > :15:57.having to move into temporary accommodation. John Henderson

:15:58. > :16:02.reports. Solar panels on the roofs of some of

:16:03. > :16:05.the primary schools classrooms. While the buildings are

:16:06. > :16:11.eco`friendly, using rainwater to flush toilets, there is a problem.

:16:12. > :16:16.It leaks. The school is great, the shame is it is such a nice design of

:16:17. > :16:20.building, it is beautiful to look at and leaked on day three.

:16:21. > :16:26.The primary school was opened four years ago at a cost of ?7 million.

:16:27. > :16:31.It was one of the first zero carbon schools in the country. Since

:16:32. > :16:36.September, the school has been using a marquee. Now it is preparing to

:16:37. > :16:40.move into more temporary buildings on the adjacent field. That is the

:16:41. > :16:44.short term solution. There are questions about the long`term

:16:45. > :16:50.viability of the eco`buildings. The whole thing might have to come down.

:16:51. > :16:56.In the end we want to get a save school that doesn't leak so the

:16:57. > :17:00.children can carry on learning. Devon County Council said no

:17:01. > :17:05.decision has yet been taken on whether to rebuild or repair the

:17:06. > :17:09.school. In a statement, the architects said it has been advised

:17:10. > :17:20.an insurance claim may be forthcoming, it added investigations

:17:21. > :17:23.are ongoing. Environmental teams are checking beaches in Cornwall after

:17:24. > :17:26.reports that more of a waxy white substance has been washed ashore.

:17:27. > :17:29.The material first appeared in October last year. It's been seen

:17:30. > :17:33.right around the south west coast since then. The latest reports are

:17:34. > :17:36.on beaches from Sennen to Porth. Signs are being put up warning

:17:37. > :17:41.people not to touch it and to keep dogs away from the substance. A

:17:42. > :17:45.company in Cornwall is creating 15 new jobs after getting a grant from

:17:46. > :17:47.Europe of more than three hundred thousand pounds.

:17:48. > :17:50.European Springs and Pressings which makes parts for the car industry has

:17:51. > :17:53.relocated to bigger premises in Redruth and boosted its exports. The

:17:54. > :17:59.company says it's benefiting from a recovering economy. Councillors in

:18:00. > :18:02.Teignbridge have voted again to sell the Old Ferry Boathouse in Shaldon

:18:03. > :18:08.to an unnamed private bidder, rather than the local community.

:18:09. > :18:12.Residents spent a year raising 100 thousand pounds to buy it but when

:18:13. > :18:16.it went out for tender, they were outbid by double that amount to a

:18:17. > :18:19.bidder who wants to use it for disability sailing. Campaigners now

:18:20. > :18:23.have seven days to persuade 16 councillors to oppose the decision.

:18:24. > :18:26.Last night we asked you for your comments on the centralising of NHS

:18:27. > :18:36.records ` thanks to everyone who took the trouble to get in touch

:18:37. > :18:41.with us. Roberts got in touch to say I do not mind my records for

:18:42. > :18:46.research but he objects to the police and insurance companies. And

:18:47. > :18:51.he says they are finding reasons to get access to records. Simon says he

:18:52. > :18:55.is amazed at the attitudes of four in ten doctors who oppose the idea

:18:56. > :18:58.of computer rising medical records. Keeping records in one practice may

:18:59. > :19:02.be all right for people who never leave their village, this does not

:19:03. > :19:06.apply to many arrests, if one is involved in an accident from home,

:19:07. > :19:14.there are benefits to a national database. And Neal is talking about

:19:15. > :19:17.that science argument saying if this helps research and the NHS save

:19:18. > :19:22.money, it is brilliant. Jennifer said, notice sharing

:19:23. > :19:26.medical records, confidential information is between me and my

:19:27. > :19:30.doctor, private means private. Thank you so much for getting in touch. We

:19:31. > :19:34.love to hear your views. Now after a bumper summer season

:19:35. > :19:37.last year, it will probably come as no surprise to hear that 2013 was

:19:38. > :19:40.the busiest year for RNLI lifeguards since the service was launched.

:19:41. > :19:42.Throughout the South West they responded to over 13 thousand

:19:43. > :19:47.incidents, whilst the volunteer lifeboat crews rescued nearly 15

:19:48. > :19:59.hundred people and saved 34 lives. Spotlight's Heidi Davey reports.

:20:00. > :20:09.This was just an average summers day for the RNR IT last summer. The

:20:10. > :20:13.charity dealt with around 13,000 people a day during the school

:20:14. > :20:20.holidays making it the biggest `` busiest beach in the region. We are

:20:21. > :20:24.looking at these beaches, places with several thousand people on the

:20:25. > :20:30.beach and a small team of lifeguards. It is testament to their

:20:31. > :20:36.courage and bravery and the training and resources we put in to make sure

:20:37. > :20:39.they are equipped to do their job. Whilst the lifeguards were flat

:20:40. > :20:44.out, the volunteer lifeboat crews launched a short `` just short of 15

:20:45. > :20:51.times of Plymouth the busiest station. The Royal Navy, fishing

:20:52. > :20:58.industry, massive leisure industry, the marinas, diving, we are bound to

:20:59. > :21:03.be busy with that many people. Some of the volunteers have been on over

:21:04. > :21:07.40 shouts last year which is a massive commitment for people who

:21:08. > :21:19.also hold down full`time jobs. These guys, especially in Padstow, they

:21:20. > :21:22.have a launch crew, recovery crew, Ilfracombe and all of the volunteers

:21:23. > :21:27.have got to be on call all of the time. Though they are not floating,

:21:28. > :21:33.they are still there and ready and up by volunteers and the people that

:21:34. > :21:38.pack them up. Last year was the warmest summer since 2006 and 12

:21:39. > :21:42.million visitors provided a real test for the charity. The lifeguards

:21:43. > :21:46.and lifeboat crew rose to the challenge and now all they have to

:21:47. > :21:52.do is be ready to do it all over again.

:21:53. > :21:55.Onto some sports news and tonight's football for the South West has been

:21:56. > :21:59.hit by the weather. Torquay United's game against Burton Albion is off as

:22:00. > :22:02.Plainmoor is waterlogged. Plymouth Argyle's scheduled trip to Newport

:22:03. > :22:07.County has also been postponed as the ground is flooded. The two other

:22:08. > :22:12.games this evening ` Yeovil Town at Derby and Exeter City at home to

:22:13. > :22:16.Oxford are unaffected. Paignton Zoo is celebrating a special new

:22:17. > :22:21.delivery ` one of its giraffes has given birth to a female calf.

:22:22. > :22:25.She's the fourth giraffe to be born at the zoo in the last two years,

:22:26. > :22:29.two others survived, one sadly didn't. But in this case mother and

:22:30. > :22:37.baby are said to be doing well. Chloe Axford reports. She is a few

:22:38. > :22:42.days old but already nearly six feet tall. This draft was born at

:22:43. > :22:47.Paignton Zoo on Saturday, unusual as most births happen at night. Her

:22:48. > :22:51.mother gave birth to her standing up and within a few hours her new

:22:52. > :22:57.daughter was able to stand and run. Sadly, a baby to raft last year died

:22:58. > :22:59.which makes this birth all the more special.

:23:00. > :23:06.We lost one a few months back but this one is looking so healthy,

:23:07. > :23:10.jarrah. The mum has taken to her, she is feeding it. Everything is

:23:11. > :23:16.going smoothly. We are over the moon. The new baby was the star

:23:17. > :23:18.attraction for these children today.

:23:19. > :23:23.Fantastic. It has been the highlight of the day so far.

:23:24. > :23:27.The children are excited. I am impressed with how excited they

:23:28. > :23:32.are. It is lovely. The baby is a Rothschild draft, an

:23:33. > :23:39.endangered species. She will join the other youngsters, Valentino who

:23:40. > :23:43.was born in 2012. She has not been named, suggestions from the children

:23:44. > :23:52.included Oscar and Frank so watch this space! What a sweetie. Now, you

:23:53. > :23:55.may remember a couple of weeks ago, we featured a feisty ferret called

:23:56. > :23:58.grumpy Gareth who needed re`homing by the Woodside Animal Welfare Trust

:23:59. > :24:01.because of his bad behaviour. After his appearance on Spotlight,

:24:02. > :24:05.staff at Dartmoor Prison came forward to offer him a new home.

:24:06. > :24:11.Gareth is currently settling in to his new secure ferret accommodation

:24:12. > :24:14.in F wing. And on Good Morning Devon tomorrow, Matt Woodley will be

:24:15. > :24:22.speaking to the Woodside Animal Welfare Trust who found Gareth his

:24:23. > :24:29.new home. We made that up! We should be in

:24:30. > :24:34.isolation. You are gullible. Hello, David.

:24:35. > :24:38.We have some more rain in the forecast for Friday, we are

:24:39. > :24:42.concerned about Friday, I will not jump to Friday just yet, tomorrow

:24:43. > :24:49.there are showers around, the difference is bits of small hope

:24:50. > :24:54.because the weather is unsettled. Less windy but that's the only good

:24:55. > :24:58.thing. It is turning colder with lower temperatures through the

:24:59. > :25:02.afternoon. Low pressure has been dictating the weather so far this

:25:03. > :25:07.week is well and truly in charge. It is centred through the Irish Sea,

:25:08. > :25:12.slowly drift southwards towards northern parts of France overnight.

:25:13. > :25:18.We keep a low pressure close enough but notice the winds are much

:25:19. > :25:23.lighter, it means the showers will be quite slow moving so they will be

:25:24. > :25:28.around for an hour or so. Also, quieter conditions on Thursday, the

:25:29. > :25:32.calm before the storm because this low`pressure is racing across the

:25:33. > :25:36.Atlantic to give more windy weather and more wet weather on Friday.

:25:37. > :25:42.Tonight, we have a few showers around this evening, they may ease

:25:43. > :25:45.for a time later on tonight with lengthy clear spells developing so

:25:46. > :25:51.temperatures are lower than last night. The wind is lighter. By the

:25:52. > :25:54.end of the night, a few showers dotted around becoming slow`moving

:25:55. > :26:01.and overnight temperatures as low as two or three. It is cold enough for

:26:02. > :26:08.some frost because of the rain with the risk of eyes`macro. `` ice. The

:26:09. > :26:14.showers will come and go, fairly slow`moving, across Somerset and

:26:15. > :26:19.Dorset, creeping in from East is thicker cloud and outbreaks of rain

:26:20. > :26:23.and sleet. That is the cold air seeping towards us during the day.

:26:24. > :26:31.Lowering the temperatures, seven or eight degrees the court will, five

:26:32. > :26:35.or six across and Dorset. So, there's the forecast for the Isles

:26:36. > :26:48.of Scilly. Some sunny spells, quite breezy with a few showers. The times

:26:49. > :26:57.of high water: Slightly cleaner surf because the wind is lighter. The

:26:58. > :27:05.coastal waters forecast, the wind is much lighter than it has been. The

:27:06. > :27:11.risk of showers and mainly good visibility. Let's talk about Friday,

:27:12. > :27:17.Thursday is a quiet day, a cold day, a lot of cloud, but Friday is all

:27:18. > :27:24.change, very windy, strong and gale force winds and heavy rain. It also

:27:25. > :27:28.coincides with spring tides, we're watching that carefully because

:27:29. > :27:33.there could be the risk of coastal flooding. More updates this time

:27:34. > :27:40.tomorrow. Have a good evening. And that is all from us. David and Simon

:27:41. > :27:44.are back at 10:25pm. The programme is back tomorrow at 6:30pm. Have a

:27:45. > :27:47.good evening. Bye`bye. Bye`bye!
