:00:11. > :00:27.The owner says it was a terrifying ordeal. I wish I could turn the

:00:28. > :00:33.clock back and it's never happened but it has. Materialism has never

:00:34. > :00:35.been a key part of our lives that emphasises that people are far more

:00:36. > :00:38.important. Also tonight: Staff at one of the

:00:39. > :00:41.region's most highly valued employers prepare to go on strike.

:00:42. > :00:44.Workers at the Land Registry in Plymouth and Weymouth will walk out

:00:45. > :00:47.later this month. And a boost for the economy as

:00:48. > :00:54.thousands flock to the Isles of Scilly for the World Gig

:00:55. > :00:57.Championships. A Paignton Jeweller whose shop was

:00:58. > :01:02.raided by armed robbers has been describing his ordeal. Alan Boydell

:01:03. > :01:05.suffered injuries to his arm as he tried to stop three masked men

:01:06. > :01:16.stealing ?7,000 worth of stock in the raid last week. Our South Devon

:01:17. > :01:21.reporter John Ayres has more. These are slowed down CCTV images of

:01:22. > :01:27.Alan trying to protect his premises. The masked men ran into his shop,

:01:28. > :01:32.not the shop assistant to the ground and started taking Julie. I picked

:01:33. > :01:36.up the chair to defend myself and draw them away from Shirley, and

:01:37. > :01:45.driving away from the main sales area and towards me. They ran

:01:46. > :01:47.straight at me into the arcade. All this time Julia spilling out of

:01:48. > :01:54.their jackets and pockets. One man was detained by witnesses. Two

:01:55. > :01:58.others got away in a car. Allen suffered an arm injury but he and

:01:59. > :02:03.his wife will not allow this to affect their business. We knew if we

:02:04. > :02:10.did not open straightaway it would be more difficult the longer we left

:02:11. > :02:14.it. We had to get in straightaway. And surely Jeffrey, bless her, she

:02:15. > :02:20.came back the next day and it wasn't easy, but we did. Police say the

:02:21. > :02:24.CCTV footage showed the men were wearing hooded tops of our weight

:02:25. > :02:31.painter and decorator style overalls. They hope that by showing

:02:32. > :02:35.the footage they will jog people 's memories and we are talking to DIY

:02:36. > :02:39.store to see if anyone remembers people coming in and buying three of

:02:40. > :02:44.these overalls. Alan and his wife have been overwhelmed by their

:02:45. > :02:48.support. It is a different perspective. Materialism has never

:02:49. > :02:53.been a big part of our lives but it emphasises that people are far more

:02:54. > :02:57.important. One man, who is 21 from party, has been charged with robbery

:02:58. > :03:04.and possession of an offensive weapon. `` 21 from Torquay.

:03:05. > :03:07.A strike has been called at the Land Registry, which employs nearly 900

:03:08. > :03:10.staff in Devon and Dorset. Unions are concerned about plans for the

:03:11. > :03:15.privatisation of the service, which is an offshoot of the government's

:03:16. > :03:22.Department for Business. Our correspondent Neil Gallacher joins

:03:23. > :03:27.me now. What exactly does the land Registry do? It keeps track of

:03:28. > :03:30.property ownership and valuations. It runs this enormous database and

:03:31. > :03:37.it is hugely valued locally as an employer. Both on the edge of

:03:38. > :03:43.Weymouth where it employs 250 people and in Plymouth the final 650

:03:44. > :03:48.people. This strike has been called for the 14th and 15th, what is the

:03:49. > :03:52.reason? The government wants to bring in a new status for the land

:03:53. > :03:57.Registry, and the key idea is to set up a new company which would still

:03:58. > :04:02.be under government oversight by the functions of the land registry would

:04:03. > :04:04.be transferred into it. The main union at the land Registry say they

:04:05. > :04:07.have been pressing for assurances that they have received.

:04:08. > :04:09.We've been looking for reassurance from Land Registry Management that

:04:10. > :04:12.there will be no compulsory redundancies, no office closures and

:04:13. > :04:16.no major outsourcings of our work. We have asked for that several times

:04:17. > :04:19.since June, management refused to give us those assurances and as such

:04:20. > :04:29.we can only think that they are planning to do some or all of those

:04:30. > :04:35.things. Is this action likely to have the major impact? There are few

:04:36. > :04:39.weeks left of clocks. The land Registry tool is today that it will

:04:40. > :04:43.continue to engage with the unions this year they can prevents the

:04:44. > :04:47.industrial action. They say we will endeavour to ensure there is minimal

:04:48. > :04:49.disruption to the services that we offer to professional customers and

:04:50. > :04:53.the public. There are warnings that mine shafts

:04:54. > :04:56.up to 100 feet deep on Dartmoor have been weakened by severe weather and

:04:57. > :04:59.could collapse. The National Park Authority says it's aware of some

:05:00. > :05:02.incidents where wood and stone used to cover the shafts have been

:05:03. > :05:07.weakened and fallen in. Chris Ellis reports.

:05:08. > :05:12.Dartmoor was mined for generations and capped tin mines hidden beneath

:05:13. > :05:15.the surface are what is left behind. This hole appeared last week and has

:05:16. > :05:20.since been fenced off to keep people and livestock away. Hundreds of

:05:21. > :05:26.covered mine shafts are thought to be scattered across the moor. This

:05:27. > :05:30.map shows the extent of the mining which has built up over generations.

:05:31. > :05:36.For ramblers there are some key signs to look out for. A mine shaft

:05:37. > :05:39.is like a well, so typically there will be a surface depression, very

:05:40. > :05:43.often surrounded by, if it is not fenced, surrounded by the remains of

:05:44. > :05:53.a low wallm a little bit like a doughnut shape. `` the remains of a

:05:54. > :05:56.low wall. You will often see a waste mound beside it. Just don't go down

:05:57. > :06:00.these hollows. The National Park Authority says there is no need to

:06:01. > :06:03.panic. Just the word mining means potential danger, and there are

:06:04. > :06:07.risks attached to everything. The important thing here is to come out

:06:08. > :06:10.with your map, look at your map and when you see the word mining or

:06:11. > :06:14.shaft just take extra care. The Duchy of Cornwall which owns about

:06:15. > :06:18.one third of the land on the moor says that the main shaft areas are

:06:19. > :06:21.inspected and fenced off. It added collapses are rare and when they

:06:22. > :06:24.happen the Duchy act immediately. In the last ten years the Park

:06:25. > :06:29.Authority said up to 15 mine shafts have collapsed and been fenced off.

:06:30. > :06:42.In the past ponies and she had been rescued from the shafts. Chris Ellis

:06:43. > :06:47.BBC Spotlight. And you can read more about that

:06:48. > :06:50.story on the BBC Devon news website. Conservationists claim rare fish may

:06:51. > :06:53.have been damaged by dredging around Devonport Dockyard. Experts are

:06:54. > :06:55.worried that conservation areas are not being properly enforced.

:06:56. > :07:01.Spotlight's Environment Correspondent Adrian Campbell

:07:02. > :07:06.reports. This small fish it at the centre of

:07:07. > :07:09.a big dispute. Smelt are rare and they are found within an area of the

:07:10. > :07:12.dockyard in Plymouth that is protected by a new marine

:07:13. > :07:16.conservation zone and what is known as a Special Area of Conservation.

:07:17. > :07:19.Despite this protection it is being claimed that dredging carried out

:07:20. > :07:23.earlier this year by this ship, the MV Causeway, may have disrupted the

:07:24. > :07:28.smelt when they were spawning. Julie Elworthy is a local environmental

:07:29. > :07:32.campaigner. It is a very important issue. The smelt is a protected

:07:33. > :07:36.species but it is not being protected in our estuary. Devonport

:07:37. > :07:40.acts as a Channel for smelt that are thought to spawn around February and

:07:41. > :07:44.March but some studies have shown dredging and poor water quality can

:07:45. > :07:47.act as a barrier to the fish. They are very sensitive to pollution, for

:07:48. > :07:51.example in the Thames estuary they were one of the most common fish in

:07:52. > :07:54.the 19th century and everyone was eating them and catching them, but

:07:55. > :07:58.as soon as the pollution problem started within the system then they

:07:59. > :08:01.disappeared quite quickly. Devon wildlife trust says the special area

:08:02. > :08:08.of conservation in Plymouth needs to be enforced. Areas like this one

:08:09. > :08:12.enjoyed a great deal of legal protection. It has taken us a long

:08:13. > :08:15.time to get to this stage. That protection must have teeth and these

:08:16. > :08:18.places must be monitored and we must make sure that this protection is

:08:19. > :08:21.meaningful. Natural England advises about the impact of dredging on

:08:22. > :08:24.smell. It changed its advice about when dredging could take place. It

:08:25. > :08:28.said its understanding improved after meeting the dredging company

:08:29. > :08:33.and learning more about the way it would work. It says it also received

:08:34. > :08:38.further advice from an expert that smelt were likely to be north of the

:08:39. > :08:41.dredging area at the time. The Ministry of defence told us it

:08:42. > :08:46.acknowledges the findings of the investigation. It says it is

:08:47. > :08:49.satisfied its contractors acted appropriately as soon as the issues

:08:50. > :08:54.became apparent and have cooperated fully with the investigation.

:08:55. > :08:57.Dredging around Devonport remains controversial, Adrian joined me in

:08:58. > :09:07.the studio earlier to discuss some new developments around the issue.

:09:08. > :09:11.The machine management organisation is the body that regulates what goes

:09:12. > :09:16.on at sea. It follows that there were two breaches of licences to the

:09:17. > :09:20.dredging company. One involved a safety at sea, they did not get

:09:21. > :09:24.enough notice to other shipping in the area at a McCain and dredging

:09:25. > :09:27.and the other one which is significant is there should have

:09:28. > :09:33.been no disposal at the disposal site for hours before high tide. Why

:09:34. > :09:37.is that significant? Because silk, it had come from the dockyard, make

:09:38. > :09:42.a dent on the table and spread the Marine conservation zone in the area

:09:43. > :09:45.and that would have been bad for conservation.

:09:46. > :09:49.As anything happened as a result of this?

:09:50. > :09:51.The marine management organisation could have had this before the

:09:52. > :09:55.courts and ask them to do something about it. There could have been a

:09:56. > :09:59.fine of up to ?50,000 or imprisonment. In the end they sent

:10:00. > :10:03.this letter to the dredging company, a formal warning telling them not to

:10:04. > :10:08.do this again. The conservationists have said this is not enough. This

:10:09. > :10:13.issue has become incredibly controversial, hasn't it?

:10:14. > :10:17.Yes, it is controversial in the conservationists say that we have

:10:18. > :10:20.the zones of protected areas at sea, if we want to put that we care about

:10:21. > :10:22.these things and we must enforce them.

:10:23. > :10:26.Since the 1990's more than a billion pounds has come to Cornwall from the

:10:27. > :10:29.European Union. But has that money been spent wisely and would the

:10:30. > :10:33.county have received the same level of help from the British Government?

:10:34. > :10:36.Well in the run up to the European Elections, our Political Editor has

:10:37. > :10:43.been in Strasbourg to take a closer look at the EU's finances and how it

:10:44. > :10:48.spends its money. The EU's budget is often assumed to be as monumental as

:10:49. > :10:53.its official buildings. Until last year it certainly had a tendency to

:10:54. > :10:57.keep going up. Now it is actually coming down for the first time in

:10:58. > :11:01.its history, thanks to pressure from countries including Britain. Even

:11:02. > :11:04.with the 6% reduction, the EU's budget for this year is around ?118

:11:05. > :11:11.billion, less than one sixth of the UK's annual expenditure. When you

:11:12. > :11:15.look at the money that comes back to member states there are two major

:11:16. > :11:22.areas of expenditure. One huge area of spending is agriculture and rural

:11:23. > :11:27.development. That means payments to farmers. And in case you hadn't

:11:28. > :11:33.noticed, there's a farmer or two in the south west. The EU is also a big

:11:34. > :11:38.spender when it comes to economic development. Devon and Somerset have

:11:39. > :11:47.both done well out of that, but the EU has really rolled out the red

:11:48. > :11:50.carpet for Cornwall. The Eden Project received ?16 million, about

:11:51. > :11:53.?70 million has been invested in a university for Cornwall and ?53

:11:54. > :11:59.million has gone towards rolling out superfast broadband. In total

:12:00. > :12:04.Cornwall has received around ?1 billion since the late 90s. It has

:12:05. > :12:09.secured another half ?1 billion between now and 2020. So a fair

:12:10. > :12:15.amount of money in anybody's book, but not everybody agrees that this

:12:16. > :12:19.is all blue skies and starlight. First of all the projects for which

:12:20. > :12:22.they are, for which the European funding goes to must be approved at

:12:23. > :12:31.the European Union level and secondly the funding has to be. ``

:12:32. > :12:36.had to be matched. So it is very restricted, it is not a wonderful

:12:37. > :12:39.sort of, there is no pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Actually, a

:12:40. > :12:43.lot of the money that is spent through those sort of funds goes in

:12:44. > :12:45.the directions of things we don't consider positive development, so

:12:46. > :12:48.recently ?44 million was spent building a second airport for

:12:49. > :12:51.Walsall, using European money. As Greens we question of whether those

:12:52. > :12:54.large`scale infrastructure development actually make sense when

:12:55. > :12:58.you buy a whole is trying to reduce its carbon emissions. The Tories'

:12:59. > :13:02.lead candidate like UKIP says ideally this funding should not have

:13:03. > :13:06.been the gift of the EU at all. Brussels take a lot of money from

:13:07. > :13:09.Britain and hand back some of it and says to Cornwall and other parts of

:13:10. > :13:13.the United Kingdom, you should be grateful to the EU. We are only

:13:14. > :13:20.getting back part of what we get. I think it would be much better if we

:13:21. > :13:23.get. I think it would be much better in regional policy was repatriated

:13:24. > :13:27.to the member states, so in other words the parliament in Westminster

:13:28. > :13:30.decides how much we spend on those things. But while the money has

:13:31. > :13:33.undoubtedly slowed down to Cornwall from the EU, with the British

:13:34. > :13:42.government of any complexion knew we have matched the EU 's largess? I

:13:43. > :13:45.actually don't believe that it is likely Cornwall would get that

:13:46. > :13:48.money. That same level of support from a national government. The

:13:49. > :13:52.investments that Cornwall gets is very specific to the issue is that

:13:53. > :13:58.there are in Cornwall and I think that actually is where the European

:13:59. > :14:02.Union has a vital role to play. I think people know that we would get

:14:03. > :14:05.far less support if we were left under national governments than we

:14:06. > :14:08.do from the European Union. Particularly in Cornwall because

:14:09. > :14:11.Cornwall has an average per capita income of less than three quarters

:14:12. > :14:17.of the European Union average so qualifies for just about every guy

:14:18. > :14:20.in the book. Poorer countries joining the EU should theoretically

:14:21. > :14:24.threaten Cornwall's claim to this money. However, it is testimony to

:14:25. > :14:27.just how poor Cornwall is that alongside Sicily and Transylvania

:14:28. > :14:40.has seen off most of southern and eastern Europe in the poverty

:14:41. > :14:44.stakes. Firefighters in the south west are

:14:45. > :14:47.back on duty this evening after a national strike. Members of the Fire

:14:48. > :14:50.Brigades' Union walked out from 12 noon till five. It's the latest

:14:51. > :14:55.action in an ongoing dispute over pensions. The government says

:14:56. > :14:57.firefighters have one of the most generous schemes in the public

:14:58. > :15:03.sector. Further strikes are planned over the weekend.

:15:04. > :15:06.Efforts to restore a 5,000 year old Cornish monument reached a crucial

:15:07. > :15:09.phase today. Carwynnen Quoit near Camborne collapsed in the 1960s. But

:15:10. > :15:12.work to lift and place granite stones in to position means it's

:15:13. > :15:25.almost back to its former glory. John Danks sent this report. This is

:15:26. > :15:29.what it takes today to shift the huge granite stones that formed the

:15:30. > :15:34.likes of Carwynnen Quoit. It is hard to imagine the effort required in

:15:35. > :15:39.the Neolithic times. It is heavy work but needs to be precise. It is

:15:40. > :15:43.going well, we are relying heavily on our expert team of structural

:15:44. > :15:48.engineers and the guys who are moving the stones and it seems to be

:15:49. > :15:51.going very well to plan. We are using some of the ancient

:15:52. > :15:56.photographs, the all photographs we have the guide us to make the

:15:57. > :16:01.monumental work as authentic as possible. One of those watching

:16:02. > :16:06.today was Paul Williams. He took this picture of Carwynnen Quoit in

:16:07. > :16:11.1955 when he was 11 years old. It is quite impressive to have gone up,

:16:12. > :16:15.when my father told me it had fallen down in 1967I thought it would never

:16:16. > :16:20.go up again. I am quite pleased that it has gone up again. These sort of

:16:21. > :16:24.monuments car in various parts of the country. We can assume that in

:16:25. > :16:29.the Neolithic period this was put up several thousand years ago. Probably

:16:30. > :16:34.to contain burial or at least mark a very important part of the

:16:35. > :16:38.landscape. Escalation of the site and sit in the area has unearthed

:16:39. > :16:42.artefacts including flint arrows in the stone pestle. The monument which

:16:43. > :16:47.was once used as a gathering point for the community is starting to

:16:48. > :16:53.fulfil that role again. Is the only one in the area. We have plenty in

:16:54. > :17:02.West can rest but this area has lost so much with the organisation that

:17:03. > :17:03.are doing something with this are doing something with this

:17:04. > :17:08.ancient monument. May be the operator imposition of VAT needs to

:17:09. > :17:13.happen next is for this name and a half`time capstone to be placed on

:17:14. > :17:19.top. And that will happen on the 21st of June.

:17:20. > :17:22.Onto the sport and speedway in Plymouth may close if attendance

:17:23. > :17:25.figures don't improve soon. That's the warning the Plymouth Devils

:17:26. > :17:28.promoters are sending out as crowds have dropped alarmingly. Well,

:17:29. > :17:39.Dave's at the St Boniface Arena for us this evening. Hello. Sorry for

:17:40. > :17:42.the noise. I do not know why I am apologising, this is part of

:17:43. > :17:48.speedway. There are worries all round by the promoters and the

:17:49. > :17:51.riders and staff alike of dwindling attendances. They have dropped

:17:52. > :17:55.substantially since the be opened here eight years ago. Joining me is

:17:56. > :18:02.the team manager and the team captain. First of all, when it

:18:03. > :18:05.reopened here it was in excess a wave. You are getting thousands to

:18:06. > :18:15.the gate. Why have been dropped off so much? Obviously I guess the

:18:16. > :18:19.support is waning because the interest has gone but I don't see

:18:20. > :18:22.why the interest should go. It is a great sport and it is the only

:18:23. > :18:27.professional sport in the summer months in Plymouth. Everybody who

:18:28. > :18:34.sees it I am sure will come back to it. How do you get them back to the

:18:35. > :18:38.gate? Just by getting advertising. TV will help. We will get on the

:18:39. > :18:41.radio and get everyone out there and just tell people that Plymouth

:18:42. > :18:47.speedway is here and once they see it I am sure they will, watch it.

:18:48. > :18:54.Returning to Cornwall, Ben Barker, you are very highly thought of. You

:18:55. > :18:57.are back here at Plymouth. At the local boy has a surprise to the

:18:58. > :19:03.attendances have dropped? Definitely. We don't have a track in

:19:04. > :19:07.Cornwall so I was hoping to bring supporters up from there. I know

:19:08. > :19:12.some do, but it is not enough. It is a sport we want to keep in Plymouth

:19:13. > :19:18.and we need more support. We used to have Exeter Falcons Raid ready rugby

:19:19. > :19:23.team used to play. They were infected and did not find a suitable

:19:24. > :19:30.site to race again. This is the only speedway team in Devon and Cornwall.

:19:31. > :19:34.That is what I'm saying. There is no Cornwall or anything else in

:19:35. > :19:38.Crawley, so it is a shame that the people have not come here. I hope

:19:39. > :19:43.they are wanting to and can relate their fire and passion for the

:19:44. > :19:50.sport. What is your even attendance figure? We are in the 650 or 700

:19:51. > :19:56.mark. We are currently about 200 people sure of that. When people

:19:57. > :20:01.come down and see what an exciting race we have here, it is a very good

:20:02. > :20:06.product that we deliver. How long can you see speedway surviving? We

:20:07. > :20:10.will be here for the duration of the season and for years to come. We are

:20:11. > :20:14.working as much as we can believe we will still in Plymouth in the

:20:15. > :20:25.receiving future. Thank you. Best of luck, then. Racing starts at 7:15pm.

:20:26. > :20:27.If Exeter Chiefs don't beat Harlequins in their final

:20:28. > :20:30.Premiership rugby match of the season at Sandy Park on Sunday, and

:20:31. > :20:33.if Wasps beat Newcastle Falcons, their chances of reaching a play`off

:20:34. > :20:36.qualifier for next seasons European Cup will disintegrate. Conversely,

:20:37. > :20:39.Quins still have eyes on the top four and a consequent play`off for

:20:40. > :20:47.the Premiership title. Chiefs finish their campaign at Newcastle next

:20:48. > :20:50.Saturday. The final day of the Football League

:20:51. > :20:54.season tomorrow sees nothing at stake for the South West teams.

:20:55. > :20:56.Yeovil Town hope to end their year's stint in the Championship, by

:20:57. > :20:59.beating Middlesbrough at Huish Park. If Wycombe Wanderers fail to beat

:21:00. > :21:02.Torquay United at Plainmoor, they'll accompany the Gulls in non`league

:21:03. > :21:05.football next season. Exeter City, now safe from relegation, and

:21:06. > :21:24.Plymouth Argyle sign off at Hartlepool and Portsmouth

:21:25. > :21:34.respectively. Finally, if you can hear me! Sends good, but we have to

:21:35. > :21:37.see every car needed. Finally, there's lots of cricket

:21:38. > :21:41.going on over the Bank Holiday. On Sunday, Somerset try to maintain

:21:42. > :21:43.their solid start to the new season against Nottinghamshire at Taunton

:21:44. > :21:46.in the County Championship. At Truro, Cornwall and Devon lock horns

:21:47. > :22:00.in the Minor Counties one`day group stages also on Sunday. What did he

:22:01. > :22:02.say? I did not catch that! Should be do the rest of the sport like that?

:22:03. > :22:05.The 25th World Pilot Gig Championships are getting underway

:22:06. > :22:08.on the Isles of Scilly amid serious travel delays. Crews from around

:22:09. > :22:12.Europe are converging on the islands but fog has created a backlog of

:22:13. > :22:15.flights. Organisers of the Gig Championships have told us the

:22:16. > :22:18.veterans races will take place this evening, even if some crews aren't

:22:19. > :22:21.there to take part. They've told us at least 600 people travelling to

:22:22. > :22:23.the championships are still stranded on the mainland. Hannah stacey has

:22:24. > :22:52.sent his report. Originally these wooden boats used

:22:53. > :22:56.to take pilot at the sailing ship. They were also used as lifeboats but

:22:57. > :23:02.today it is a very different kind of competition. We are joined by Norma

:23:03. > :23:08.Edwards from the horrible high with the association. This event started

:23:09. > :23:11.25 years ago when the Isles of Scilly decided they would invite

:23:12. > :23:16.people from the mainland to come over and race them and have a

:23:17. > :23:21.social, basically. There was making boats on the star claimed that they

:23:22. > :23:26.are that weekend. 25 years later we are the 140 or more boats on the

:23:27. > :23:32.stifling stop the sport grows and grows that everyone loves coming to

:23:33. > :23:38.Scilly. University in that first year of the event? Yes, we were

:23:39. > :23:41.going down and are rolling now. We were one of the founding clubs in

:23:42. > :23:46.the area. The sport has grown so much, it is amazing to see so many

:23:47. > :23:51.superb boats rolling here today. One of the main talking point so far has

:23:52. > :23:54.been the serious travel delays experienced by some of the crews

:23:55. > :24:00.trying to get over. Flights have been delayed by an entity one half

:24:01. > :24:05.hours and from Newquay by owned an hour and a half. Now the Isles of

:24:06. > :24:09.Scilly steamship company has told us they are trying to catch up on these

:24:10. > :24:14.flights and that it has an extension until around 8pm this evening to do

:24:15. > :24:17.that. Should the weather deteriorate inmates not be able to get all of

:24:18. > :24:25.the crew members over here from the mainland.

:24:26. > :24:31.Thank you very much. The question is, will the naked? Doesn't look any

:24:32. > :24:35.better, David? `` will they make it?

:24:36. > :24:44.The cloud has lifted. Good evening. Holiday weekend approaching and the

:24:45. > :24:47.weather is going to be kind to us. It could be disappointed with cloudy

:24:48. > :24:51.at pains and that is the story this weekend. We will have real trouble

:24:52. > :24:55.trying to track down when we will get breaks of the sunshine coming

:24:56. > :24:59.out. In the meantime rather cloudy and briefly some sunshine. The

:25:00. > :25:05.sunshine mainly confined to the east. Both these are quite cloudy,

:25:06. > :25:11.11 and 12 the top temperature. No rough seas and the winds coming from

:25:12. > :25:15.the South or Southeast and able be around three or four on both days

:25:16. > :25:18.and so good rolling conditions if you can get there. The cloud around

:25:19. > :25:23.today has been struggling to break and is still across as for the

:25:24. > :25:28.moment. That will be a worry into Saturday because we could see it

:25:29. > :25:33.around for a good part of the day. It is a weather system that does not

:25:34. > :25:35.want to move away. The cloud is thicker with a spot of Windows Vista

:25:36. > :25:40.on this evening and overnight tonight. And to tomorrow we have a

:25:41. > :25:43.strand of patchy rain into the Western Isles of Scilly and by the

:25:44. > :25:48.time we get into Sunday that will pull away. Hopefully we get some

:25:49. > :25:51.sunny spells on Sunday as well as bank holiday Monday. By the end of

:25:52. > :25:55.the day on bank holiday Monday the happy change coming in from the

:25:56. > :26:00.west. That is a weather front bringing rain on Monday night and

:26:01. > :26:02.into Tuesday. The detail for this evening and overnight, a lot of

:26:03. > :26:06.cloud that will be struggling to clear out of the way and it may be

:26:07. > :26:11.sick enough for the odd bit of drizzle. Expect a cloudy evening, a

:26:12. > :26:15.mild one and if you do see any credence at all that will be a part

:26:16. > :26:25.`` cross a part of Somerset and Dorset. Low temperatures of five or

:26:26. > :26:28.six. As for tomorrow, everywhere will see a lot of cloud at least for

:26:29. > :26:33.the morning. The patchy drizzle and have in the West will feed and the

:26:34. > :26:37.best of the sunshine will be east Devon, Dorset and Somerset and the

:26:38. > :26:45.Channel Islands. It will be relatively mild, temperatures of 213

:26:46. > :26:49.or 14 degrees. It will be cooler on the coast and for the Isles of

:26:50. > :26:56.Scilly it will be 13 degrees. Kinds of high water at Maidenhead that'll

:26:57. > :27:02.be named a.m., Falmouth at 8:31pm in Saint Mary 's at 8:01am. For the

:27:03. > :27:10.surfers, the server is not huge this weekend, it will pick up next week.

:27:11. > :27:13.`` the surface is not huge. That is the coastal waters forecast, the

:27:14. > :27:19.winds mainly from the south or Southeast with occasionally for and

:27:20. > :27:22.in the Isles of Scilly, there was good usability. The promise of dry

:27:23. > :27:27.weather for the holiday weekend, as I mentioned a lot of cloud so it

:27:28. > :27:34.will be tricky to get breaks in the cloud. All in all not too bad. Have

:27:35. > :27:40.a nice weekend. There will be extensive coverage of the world ten

:27:41. > :28:05.the Mac Championships. `` world gig Championships. Goodbye.

:28:06. > :28:07.Men are even less tolerant of women than they were before.
