:00:12. > :00:17.A stricken cargo ship off Cornwall ` investigations continue to find out
:00:18. > :00:20.why it started sinking. Good evening, welcome to Spotlight. The
:00:21. > :00:23.crew of the Sea Breeze had to abandon ship ` tonight it's still
:00:24. > :00:28.not clear why the vessel began taking on water. Also tonight:
:00:29. > :00:31.Concern about plans to closd three children's homes in Devon.
:00:32. > :00:34.Campaigners say the plans aren't in the best interest of the most
:00:35. > :00:37.vulnerable young people And Cornwall council makes more than ?300,00 a
:00:38. > :00:48.year because their parking lachines don't give change. Disgusting
:00:49. > :00:59.really. Clever. Unscrupulous. Thank you. Efforts are continuing tonight
:01:00. > :01:03.to stabilise a cargo ship which started sinking off the coast of
:01:04. > :01:06.Cornwall. The crew of the Sda Breeze had to be taken to safety bx
:01:07. > :01:10.lifeboats and a rescue helicopter after the vessel began taking on
:01:11. > :01:13.water off the Lizard. The ship has now been towed to the sheltdred
:01:14. > :01:17.waters of St Austell Bay and salvage crews have been attempting to repair
:01:18. > :01:23.the damage in a bid to keep it afloat. Spotlight's David Gdorge
:01:24. > :01:31.reports. The Sea Breeze is `nchored two miles off shore in St Atstell
:01:32. > :01:36.Bay. She is surrounded by other vessels, including a dive boat, a
:01:37. > :01:42.vessel which has brought pulps on board and the salvage tug. The team
:01:43. > :01:46.are working on the vessel. We have seen them moving pipes around, part
:01:47. > :01:49.of the pumping operation th`t is going on. We have had a radho call
:01:50. > :01:54.to say that they're putting divers into the water right now and we have
:01:55. > :02:00.been asked to stand off. Whhch of course is what we have done. The
:02:01. > :02:06.coaster was on the way from Liverpool to Shoreham with ` cargo
:02:07. > :02:12.of limestone when the drama started yesterday morning. The Sea Breeze
:02:13. > :02:19.broadcast a May Day that was received by Falmouth coastgtards.
:02:20. > :02:22.They sent lifeboats and a Royal Navy rescue helicopter. All of those
:02:23. > :02:29.vessels and the helicopter had cameras on board, so we can see what
:02:30. > :02:33.happened. The fisheries protection vessel HMS Tyne also assistdd. They
:02:34. > :02:39.put crew and pumps on board, but they were unable to handle the
:02:40. > :02:43.quantity of water. She was low in the water and as the pumps weren't
:02:44. > :02:47.maintaining the water level. They're only small pumps and not designed
:02:48. > :02:52.for that amount of water. Whth conversation with the coastguard and
:02:53. > :02:57.ourselves, it was decided the safest thing was to evacuate all
:02:58. > :03:07.nonessential crew and then we took everyone off. So we took all six
:03:08. > :03:13.crew off. I understand the problem is one of damage to the sea water
:03:14. > :03:17.inlet valves. That has causdd the vessel to start to sink. Wh`t the
:03:18. > :03:22.divers are doing is trying to put a patch over the sea water inlet.
:03:23. > :03:27.Rescuers say conditions werd good with little wind and a low swell. If
:03:28. > :03:32.this had happened in the storms of a few weeks ago, there might have been
:03:33. > :03:38.a Jr. Different ` very diffdrent outcome. Tonight the ship is dead in
:03:39. > :03:43.the water with the team washing on `` working on board. And David's
:03:44. > :03:46.been following developments all day and joins us now from Fowey. David,
:03:47. > :03:51.what's the latest tonight? Well the first development is the divers from
:03:52. > :03:56.the Royal Navy, those experts, have managed to weld a patch over the sea
:03:57. > :04:01.water inlet. The ship is now safe and we are told she is stable and
:04:02. > :04:06.the pumping is continuing. But she is still dead in the water. The
:04:07. > :04:11.engine room and the ship's systems have failed, because of the water.
:04:12. > :04:20.The question is where she whll be toed, it o' O'`` towed. Disdugses
:04:21. > :04:27.about that will `` discussion about that will continue. Plans to close
:04:28. > :04:30.three children's homes in Ddvon are being described by campaigndrs as
:04:31. > :04:33.not in the best interests of the county's most vulnerable yotng
:04:34. > :04:36.people. The County Council wants to place more children in family
:04:37. > :04:39.settings such as foster card rather than institutional homes. The move
:04:40. > :04:41.follows concerns raised abott two of the homes by Ofsted inspectors.
:04:42. > :04:46.Here's our political reportdr Jenny Kumah. Lee moved to Devon after
:04:47. > :04:51.spending his entire childhood in care. He spent time in children s
:04:52. > :04:56.home as well as with foster families. He feels homes can play an
:04:57. > :04:58.important role. When you're in a predicament like the childrdn out
:04:59. > :05:01.there, your in what is essentially the worst position you've ever been,
:05:02. > :05:05.taken away from your familids. Sometimes if you just plonk them in
:05:06. > :05:10.with foster carers, then it can be really traumatic, because c`re homes
:05:11. > :05:13.can take that away. You go hn there, you know you're in with othdr
:05:14. > :05:19.children, who are like`minddd, are in the same situation, that you can
:05:20. > :05:21.talk to. Two of the children's homes facing closure are now emptx,
:05:22. > :05:25.following critical Ofsted rdports. But Blossom Corner in Exeter has
:05:26. > :05:35.been rated good by inspectors and is still being used. Campaigners want
:05:36. > :05:39.this one to at least remain open. I think our real concern is that we
:05:40. > :05:43.are going to lose the expertise of very dedicated staff at a place like
:05:44. > :05:46.Blossom Corner, that they are able to cope with children with highly
:05:47. > :05:50.complex needs and I believe that it is in their setting that it is
:05:51. > :05:54.better for them than in the private sector. But the council says it
:05:55. > :05:59.costs ?1,500 a more to placd a child in Blossom Corner is, rather than a
:06:00. > :06:02.private children's home. Devon County Council wants more children
:06:03. > :06:07.to be looked after in familhes by foster careers, rather than in
:06:08. > :06:09.institutional homes. But opposition councillors are worried abott
:06:10. > :06:13.whether the council can recruit enough foster carers with the right
:06:14. > :06:16.skills to make this happen. The council says it is growing hts
:06:17. > :06:21.foster team and these changds will be positive. We have looked at the
:06:22. > :06:23.past evidence and actually placing children in an environment with
:06:24. > :06:26.foster carer placement and that family`type structure for md is the
:06:27. > :06:29.best solution wherever posshble and I'm quite comfortable that we can
:06:30. > :06:36.top that up and buy independent places as and when the need arises.
:06:37. > :06:39.Opposition councillors will try to overturn the council's decision to
:06:40. > :06:46.close the three children's homes at a special meeting tomorrow. The
:06:47. > :06:49.South West Ambulance Servicd Trust today extended the non emergency 111
:06:50. > :06:52.phone service across the whole of Devon. The service was inithally
:06:53. > :06:55.launched in parts of the cotnty in September last year. It now replaces
:06:56. > :06:59.all GP out`of`hours numbers in Devon. It's designed to be tsed when
:07:00. > :07:10.there is an urgent medical need that does not warrant a 999 call. The
:07:11. > :07:23.spell of dry weather has brought relief for flood victims in
:07:24. > :07:27.Somerset. More train servicds are opening. But as Clinton Rogdrs
:07:28. > :07:31.reports there is still a long way to go. The train standing at T`unton
:07:32. > :07:36.station is a clear sign that things are beginning to return to normal.
:07:37. > :07:41.Following the floods that m`de this stretch of line between Taunton and
:07:42. > :07:45.Bristol impassable, today for the first time trains were runnhng over
:07:46. > :07:50.it again. Although for now ht is still a reduced service. Thdre
:07:51. > :07:56.remains a lot of water on the Somerset Levels, but much ldss than
:07:57. > :07:59.there was. 33 million tonnes of water today. But that is a third of
:08:00. > :08:04.what it was at the height of the floods. We have got a good forecast
:08:05. > :08:12.for the next week and we have had a number of days without rain. So it
:08:13. > :08:17.gives us the chance to take a lot of water off. It also means th`t the
:08:18. > :08:21.environmental agency can st`rt scaling down their pumping
:08:22. > :08:26.operations. These huge Dutch pumps are about to be dismantled. The road
:08:27. > :08:33.will be closed while they'rd taken a I way tonight. `` taken awax
:08:34. > :08:38.tonight. There is relief in the village that was marooned for ten
:08:39. > :08:45.weeks. But at last some roads are drivable. You don't have to put on
:08:46. > :08:53.the wet weather gear and walk for miles. The main road linking Taunton
:08:54. > :08:57.and Glastonbury remains closed. The Environment Agency said it hoped to
:08:58. > :09:08.have all roads re`opened by the end of March. For this company, that
:09:09. > :09:12.can't come soon enough. Thex face a 12`mile detour. It is costing in
:09:13. > :09:17.extra fuel and expenses for the drivers to keep them away from the
:09:18. > :09:22.depot still. Flood victims will be counting the cost financially and
:09:23. > :09:31.emotionally for many months to come. Few here are expecting to bd home
:09:32. > :09:35.before Christmas. Still to come tonight: The money made by ` council
:09:36. > :09:38.from parking machines which don t give change. Plus, a double first
:09:39. > :09:44.for Exeter Chiefs ` they finally beat rivals Bath and book a cup
:09:45. > :09:53.final place. And find out why these brave swimmers have been taking a
:09:54. > :09:55.dip inspired by Agatha Christie The South Western Ambulance Service is
:09:56. > :10:02.easing the strain on hard`pressed hospitals by allowing paramddics to
:10:03. > :10:07.treat more people at home. Only 43% of their patients are taken to A
:10:08. > :10:10.Today, senior NHS leaders s`id more ambulance trusts should follow the
:10:11. > :10:15.example of the South Western service. Our Health Correspondent
:10:16. > :10:21.Sally Mountjoy has this report. Pamela is reading over her diary for
:10:22. > :10:26.last Boxing Day. This a when she fell at home, causing an injury to
:10:27. > :10:30.her leg. But the paramedics didn't take her to hospital. They treated
:10:31. > :10:37.and dressed her wound at hole and arranged for the district ntrse to
:10:38. > :10:43.call. I would prefer not to have to go to the A and from I have seen
:10:44. > :10:49.on the screen, they are kept so busy with things happening that somebody
:10:50. > :10:54.to come to the house is marvellous. Perfect. The number of patidnts
:10:55. > :10:59.emergency departments are sdeing is growing. Last winter royal Cornwall
:11:00. > :11:05.and Derriford hospitals reached the highest levels of alert. Today, the
:11:06. > :11:10.NHS confederation, which represents health service manager, said more
:11:11. > :11:15.paramedic should be trained to leave patients at home. What we w`nt to do
:11:16. > :11:20.is see that paramedics can see and treat the whole person, so that is
:11:21. > :11:24.about their medical, mental health and social needs. In a placd like
:11:25. > :11:28.the South West where the tr`ining exists, you can see that it is
:11:29. > :11:33.successful. In the north`west, ambulances take 75% of their
:11:34. > :11:39.patients to hospital. The average for England is 64%. But herd in the
:11:40. > :11:44.South West, ambulance crews take just 43% of emergency patients to
:11:45. > :11:50.A The ambulance service campaign to reduce the numbers taken to
:11:51. > :11:56.hospital began in 2011 and now it is paying dividends. This year, 24 000
:11:57. > :12:00.people will not go to an emdrgency department. I think that has great
:12:01. > :12:04.benefits for the ambulance service and looking that the patient's
:12:05. > :12:08.journey through the hospital it does save resources across the sxstem.
:12:09. > :12:12.They say most patients prefdr to stay at home and by keeping less
:12:13. > :12:20.serious cased out of the hospital, those who need to be there can be
:12:21. > :12:23.seen faster. More than ?300,000 a year is being made by Cornw`ll
:12:24. > :12:27.Council because their parking machines don't give change. The
:12:28. > :12:29.authority says stocking mord than 250 pay`and`display stations with
:12:30. > :12:33.change would be too problem`tic and costly and says it reinvests the
:12:34. > :12:40.money overpaid by drivers in road maintenance and other transport
:12:41. > :12:44.projects. But, as Tamsin Melville's been finding out, not everyone's
:12:45. > :12:48.impressed. How often does it happen to you ` you find a car park space
:12:49. > :12:51.and you start scrabbling around because you can't find the right
:12:52. > :12:55.change? Well it seems in Cornwall Council's car parks this is
:12:56. > :12:58.happening a lot. The authorhty has more than 250 pay`and`displ`y
:12:59. > :13:01.machines in its car parks and new figures show people not getting any
:13:02. > :13:08.change from these is netting the council more than ?300,000 ` year. A
:13:09. > :13:13.bit disgusting really. Yeah, I mean not everybody can afford to lose
:13:14. > :13:17.money, can they? Well I might think it's OK if they spent that ?300 000
:13:18. > :13:21.or something useful. They do reinvest it into transportation so
:13:22. > :13:28.for the roads. Into society. Yeah, well, I wouldn't really want it to
:13:29. > :13:32.be my money! Because I only had ?3, I think I should get another 40
:13:33. > :13:36.pence of time. But I think their machine would be well capable of
:13:37. > :13:39.that. They cannot say that xou haven't been warned, but thd warning
:13:40. > :13:50.is so small compared with the very big thing saying "welcome". Clever.
:13:51. > :13:53.Unscrupulous. Thank you. Thd council says the logistical problems of
:13:54. > :13:56.stocking all machines would be too costly and points out there is a
:13:57. > :14:01.cashless mobile phone systel available. You just used thd mobile
:14:02. > :14:07.phone system, what was that like? Terrible. It was too long, luch too
:14:08. > :14:12.long`winded. There must be `n easier way of doing it. Wouldn't that just
:14:13. > :14:16.be bringing the right changd? Yes, it would. The council also says it
:14:17. > :14:25.would like to introduce a pay`as`you`go system where xou pay
:14:26. > :14:28.on exit. In Devon at the region s biggest hospital, staff are fighting
:14:29. > :14:34.plans to more than double their parking charges. They're dud to rise
:14:35. > :14:39.to ?2.50 a day, making Derrhford the most expensive of all the l`rger
:14:40. > :14:42.hospitals in the South West. Unions say it'll force people to look
:14:43. > :14:45.elsewhere for work, because they can't afford to pay more. There s
:14:46. > :14:48.now an online petition against the new prices which could come into
:14:49. > :14:54.force next month. Emma Thom`sson reports. Working out the monthly
:14:55. > :14:59.budget. Jenna is a health c`re assistant at Derriford and with a
:15:00. > :15:02.baby on the way, money is thght She said the increase will mean spending
:15:03. > :15:08.half a day's pay on parking every month. It's going to be verx
:15:09. > :15:12.difficult, because me and mx husband both work at the Trust. Therefore
:15:13. > :15:15.that's an extra ?40 to find every month, which we are going to go
:15:16. > :15:19.without, because I'm a shift worker, so I can't get to the hospital any
:15:20. > :15:23.other way or form, because H would have to get two buses and therefore
:15:24. > :15:28.leave really late or really early when buses don't run. But bosses at
:15:29. > :15:32.the hospitals say the chargds have been frozen for the last five years.
:15:33. > :15:35.We do understand that everybody has very specific things in thehr life
:15:36. > :15:44.and car parking needs to fit into that. So it's never going to be
:15:45. > :15:47.popular to increase charges. In fact, it's so unpopular that the
:15:48. > :15:51.unions have launched an onlhne petition. In the first day lore than
:15:52. > :15:55.800 people signed it. We have heard from people who have just h`d just
:15:56. > :15:59.had their rents raised so they can't afford either that or these parking
:16:00. > :16:02.charges and said they will leave the Trust. For a Trust that strtggles to
:16:03. > :16:07.recruit anyway, that is a rhdiculous situation to be in. Most of the main
:16:08. > :16:11.hospitals in the South West have a sliding scale for charges. For staff
:16:12. > :16:15.like Jenna who earn around ?16, 00 a year, the monthly deduction from
:16:16. > :16:21.their salary at the Royal Ddvon and Exeter Hospital is ?15.40. The is
:16:22. > :16:26.halved for using the park and ride. It's ?6.50 at Torbay, ?6.20 in North
:16:27. > :16:29.Devon and ?15.15 at Treliskd. At Dorset County Hospital and `t
:16:30. > :16:38.Musgrove Park there are fixdd monthly fees regardless of what they
:16:39. > :16:42.earn. Charges could also go up for patients and visitors once the board
:16:43. > :16:45.has met at the end of the month Increases are always contentious,
:16:46. > :16:54.but with the strength of fedling among staff here, the hospital
:16:55. > :16:58.certainly has a fight on its hands. There's been a lot of reacthon to
:16:59. > :17:02.the parking stories tonight. On Derriford, Geraldine's been in touch
:17:03. > :17:06.via our Facebook page. She says hospital staff shouldn't have to pay
:17:07. > :17:10.anything to park! Another comment here asks why should nurses and
:17:11. > :17:14.doctors get reduced parking? Normal working people have to pay `t least
:17:15. > :17:19.?2 a day and they earn loads more than normal people on minimtm wage.
:17:20. > :17:22.You've also had lots to say on Cornwall Council getting ?300,0 0 a
:17:23. > :17:26.year, because its parking m`chines don't give change. Leon asks why
:17:27. > :17:30.don't they use the money to repair all the pot holes? Ann says maybe
:17:31. > :17:35.they could cut the cost of parking now? Mark suggested donating the
:17:36. > :17:39.300,000 to local charities. And Roger's been in touch via F`cebook.
:17:40. > :17:44.He says: "Make sure you havd change in the car! If you don't have change
:17:45. > :17:50.you have a choice ` pay a lhttle over the odds or go somewhere else
:17:51. > :17:54.to park!" Onto the sport now and history has been made by Exdter
:17:55. > :18:01.Chiefs over the weekend and Dave's been to Sandy Park to mark the
:18:02. > :18:06.occasion. Exeter Chiefs are celebrating their first appdarance
:18:07. > :18:14.in a cup time as a Premiership club. It is taking place at their home
:18:15. > :18:19.stadium against Northampton. Of course these will be just two of the
:18:20. > :18:24.shirts the players will be wearing in that special occasion. At the
:18:25. > :18:30.12th time of asking, Exeter Chiefs managed to overcome a team they have
:18:31. > :18:37.never beaten in the Premiership In the last minute Bath had thd chance
:18:38. > :18:43.to level the score at 22`22. But they missed the penalty and the
:18:44. > :18:51.Devon club celebrated a rard triumph over them. Their first sips 197 . I
:18:52. > :18:55.live here and to me it is mx backyard. It is nice and I don't
:18:56. > :19:00.think for one minute when wd were asked if we would host it dhd anyone
:19:01. > :19:08.think we would be in the final. But it is for us to make the most of the
:19:09. > :19:14.opportunity. Two tries from the full back set the can have cheeps up for
:19:15. > :19:18.a `` Chiefs up for the final. When you think of where they havd come
:19:19. > :19:23.from the old ground and now being in the final, they deserve everything.
:19:24. > :19:27.We have been waiting a whild. Burr we can't wait. What does it mean as
:19:28. > :19:32.a fan watching your team here on your home ground? It is brilliant
:19:33. > :19:37.that we are actually at homd and in the actual final. It is really good.
:19:38. > :19:42.They will be underdogs against a team who have beaten them twice this
:19:43. > :19:49.season. But their record ag`inst Bath wasn't too good either. It has
:19:50. > :19:56.been a disappointing weekend for the South West's football sides, apart
:19:57. > :20:03.from Yeovil who beat Sheffidld Wednesday 2`0. Miller's two goals
:20:04. > :20:09.sent them on their way. But their relegation rivals all won and keeps
:20:10. > :20:14.Town two points o' away frol safety. Plymouth missed the chance to go
:20:15. > :20:27.into the play offs as they suffered a 2`1 defeat at Bristol Rovdrs.
:20:28. > :20:32.Rovers took the winning points to ensure Plymouth stay two pohnts off

:20:40. > :20:43.Two after they were held by Dagenham and Redbridge. Nichol gave City the
:20:44. > :20:53.lead, but that was undone in the second half. Six minutes into added

:21:01. > :21:06.league football after going down again. They're 12 points from
:21:07. > :21:16.survive. And the regional football programme tonight at 11. 20. It is
:21:17. > :21:21.called Late kickoff. Thank xou. It's been a gorgeous day for a dhp ` just
:21:22. > :21:24.the job for a group of wild swimmers who're recreated one of Agatha
:21:25. > :21:33.Christie's favourite swims, in Torbay. We sent our very own Alec
:21:34. > :21:36.Collyer along to test the w`ter Growing up in Torquay, Meadford
:21:37. > :21:42.Beach is where Agatha Christie used to go for a nice dip. Perhaps she
:21:43. > :21:57.and friends even had a small party there. Isn't it a superb dax for a
:21:58. > :22:09.swim? Yes, darling, let's go and join the waves. Lets! Three, two,
:22:10. > :22:12.one ` yeah! Devon Wild Swimlers did a half mile swim to Shag Rock and
:22:13. > :22:18.back to raise awareness for Sport Relief. Well everyone will `gree
:22:19. > :22:22.it's a good cause, but the camaraderie and fun you get instead
:22:23. > :22:25.of doing a sponsored walk or whatever, this gives you an
:22:26. > :22:33.opportunity to enjoy it as well whilst you're doing some good.
:22:34. > :22:38.Jackie swims in the sea every day. How is the water today then?
:22:39. > :22:46.Stunning. Stunningly cold or stunningly nice? It's perfect. It's
:22:47. > :22:55.beautiful. I don't know if Hercule Poirot ever went wild swimmhng. He
:22:56. > :22:59.probably had more sense! And as the swimmers returned a plot st`rted to
:23:00. > :23:04.form. Archie, darling, I have just had a superb idea for a new novel.
:23:05. > :23:17.It's called Murder on Meadford. What a wonderful idea! I can't s`y I
:23:18. > :23:22.actually remember the book. It looked beautiful. It was like the
:23:23. > :23:28.Mediterranean. But I bet it was chilly. Will the sunny weather
:23:29. > :23:34.continue? The sea temperature is about nine degrees. You would notice
:23:35. > :23:39.that. Yes. We have had tempdratures of 18 degrees through the wdekend.
:23:40. > :23:44.That is good for the first week in March. It is a little bit cooler for
:23:45. > :23:48.today and it is colder later this week. But the main story has to be
:23:49. > :23:52.one of fine and dry weather. That is the message to get across. Some
:23:53. > :23:57.sunshine around, but some chilly nights as well. When you look at the
:23:58. > :24:02.satellite you can see where all the weather is going. It is heading with
:24:03. > :24:08.this line of cloud straight up towards the Faroes and Icel`nd. That
:24:09. > :24:12.is where the low pressure is heading. The reason we are settled
:24:13. > :24:18.is because we have a big arda of high pressure. It doesn't change
:24:19. > :24:23.much for the next few days. It does draw in some cloud tomorrow. We will
:24:24. > :24:27.have more cloud to start with. But it should break up. This is the
:24:28. > :24:34.middle of the week, Wednesd`y, when we remain fine and dry with
:24:35. > :24:39.sunshine. This was the cloud picture from earlier, you can see there
:24:40. > :24:42.isn't a great deal of cloud for much of Devon and Cornwall. For Somerset
:24:43. > :24:46.and Dorset the cloud has bedn thicker and that is heading our way
:24:47. > :24:50.tonight and tomorrow. Tomorrow we could have a cloudy start. But let's
:24:51. > :24:56.take you back to last week. When we had a bit of a different scdne
:24:57. > :25:06.across Dartmoor. Something we don't see often. These picture were sent
:25:07. > :25:11.in pi Simon `` by Simon. Thdse are starlings, it is almost likd a cloud
:25:12. > :25:16.in the sky. Today we have h`d some sunshine and a large part of South
:25:17. > :25:21.West has had glorious weathdr today. The sun has been out. Some haze in
:25:22. > :25:27.the air. Just reducing the visibility. But it has been very
:25:28. > :25:31.pleasant and although the sda looks very inviting, the sea tempdrature
:25:32. > :25:35.at the moment is quite a bit down at around nine degrees. And thd
:25:36. > :25:42.forecast tonight, more cloud will come in from the east and blanket
:25:43. > :25:51.emost of the south`west by tomorrow morning. Temperatures down to three
:25:52. > :25:55.or four degrees. Tomorrow, the cloud will be reluctant to move. But it
:25:56. > :26:00.will break up and in the afternoon we will see some sunny spells with
:26:01. > :26:09.temperatures up to 12. A few places might get to 14 degrees. And for the
:26:10. > :26:16.forecast for the Isles of Scilly, a fine and bright day. Just a bit hazy
:26:17. > :26:22.with a brisk north`easterly breeze. There are the times of high water:
:26:23. > :26:34.For surfers the surf will bd clean, but not very big. But a remhnder of
:26:35. > :26:40.the tea temperatures of `` sea temperatures. The winds are from the
:26:41. > :26:44.east, force four or five. And a dry week. After quite a misty start on
:26:45. > :26:53.Wednesday, we will have sunshine again. More cloud though on Thursday
:26:54. > :26:57.and Friday. Thank you. Loving your work! Now just before we go we'd
:26:58. > :27:00.like to tell you about a new series on BBC South West starting tomorrow.
:27:01. > :27:04.It's almost eight weeks since we last had a through train to Plymouth
:27:05. > :27:07.or Cornwall. Yes, the repairs at Whiteball tunnel, followed by the
:27:08. > :27:11.collapse of the sea wall at Dawlish cut off much of the South Wdst. But
:27:12. > :27:15.was the region always so vulnerable? 60 years ago we had alternatives to
:27:16. > :27:18.the coastal line. Now rail bosses have been told to look into possible
:27:19. > :27:21.inland railway routes. We'll explore the options starting tomorrow on
:27:22. > :27:27.your BBC local radio station and on Spotlight with our business
:27:28. > :27:32.correspondent Neil Gallacher. And a big thank you to everyone who got in
:27:33. > :27:38.touch in our search for the family of Herbert Algarve, the diary writer
:27:39. > :27:42.we featured. We have got an interesting lead that we ard
:27:43. > :27:45.following up. More to come through the week. Good night.
