Believing. Premier League is estimated to | :00:00. | :00:12. | |
Believing. Prayers will be said this weekend | :00:13. | :00:15. | |
for two West Country sailors feared lost in the Atlantic. `` good | :00:16. | :00:18. | |
evening. Paul Goslin and Stephen Warren from Somerset were among the | :00:19. | :00:21. | |
crew of the Cheeki Rafiki. The vessel was found with its life`raft | :00:22. | :00:24. | |
unused. Their families said today they were "shocked and deeply | :00:25. | :00:28. | |
saddened". Steve Knibbs reports. The discovery of the Cheeki Rafiki | :00:29. | :00:31. | |
initially gave hope to the families, but once the US Navy discovered the | :00:32. | :00:34. | |
yacht's life raft still in place, hope turned to despair. | :00:35. | :00:38. | |
I think we are all absolutely devastated, and just also aware of | :00:39. | :00:41. | |
the immense support that everybody signing the petition, the hopes and | :00:42. | :00:48. | |
prayers of so many people out there. Tony Bullimore, who was rescued from | :00:49. | :00:51. | |
his upturned yacht after five days in 1997, told me the yachting world | :00:52. | :00:59. | |
will be in mourning today. I think all sailors, all people that | :01:00. | :01:02. | |
have crossed the North Atlantic or not, feel very deeply for these | :01:03. | :01:14. | |
guys. Very young, some of them, and it has all gone wrong for them. | :01:15. | :01:17. | |
Sailors from the many private boats that helped in the search will take | :01:18. | :01:20. | |
part in a minute's silence tonight at sunset, remembering the crew of | :01:21. | :01:23. | |
the Cheeki Rafiki and the families they have left behind. Steve Knibbs, | :01:24. | :01:26. | |
BBC Spotlight. A 12`year`old girl has died after | :01:27. | :01:29. | |
falling from a wall in Exeter. The incident happened at the Phoenix | :01:30. | :01:32. | |
Youth Club in the Wonford area of the city yesterday evening. John | :01:33. | :01:36. | |
Danks reports. The 12`year`old girl fell from this | :01:37. | :01:39. | |
wall behind the Phoenix Youth Club last night. Today, floral tributes | :01:40. | :01:43. | |
were left for Nicole Hardup by many of her friends. Police say an | :01:44. | :01:47. | |
investigation into the incident is being carried out but no one is | :01:48. | :01:51. | |
being sought in connection with it. The Exeter club is run by Devon | :01:52. | :01:56. | |
County Council. The local authority says it is working to ensure | :01:57. | :01:59. | |
counselling and support is available over the coming days and weeks. A | :02:00. | :02:03. | |
spokesman for Devon County Council said the girl had been stood on a | :02:04. | :02:06. | |
wall watching people play football when she slipped and fell. She | :02:07. | :02:10. | |
apparently stood up immediately afterwards but moments later | :02:11. | :02:14. | |
collapsed. She was taken to the Royal Devon and Exeter Hospital, | :02:15. | :02:20. | |
where she later died. Organisers of the Devon County Show | :02:21. | :02:23. | |
are thanking people for their support after they had to cancel day | :02:24. | :02:27. | |
three of the event. Heavy rain turned the public car parks into mud | :02:28. | :02:30. | |
baths. Heidi Davey has been at Westpoint. | :02:31. | :02:35. | |
Normally, this field would be full of cars, but today just a solitary | :02:36. | :02:41. | |
few remain stuck in the mud. Inside the showground it is sadly a similar | :02:42. | :02:47. | |
scene as everyone is packing up. Well, you can't argue with the | :02:48. | :02:51. | |
weather, can you? It is down to the elements. But it has quite a | :02:52. | :02:54. | |
knock`on effect for everybody. It dramatically reduces your turnover, | :02:55. | :02:57. | |
you know, you come with great expectations and then it is just | :02:58. | :03:00. | |
negative when you get this sort of scenario. | :03:01. | :03:08. | |
For the farmers, day three is normally the busiest. It is when | :03:09. | :03:12. | |
they get the chance to show off their livestock to thousands of | :03:13. | :03:15. | |
visitors. This day, Saturday, at the Devon | :03:16. | :03:19. | |
County Show, is the day of the year that people come with their children | :03:20. | :03:22. | |
and we get the chance to let them touch the animals and find out what | :03:23. | :03:27. | |
the animals are. We have lost that opportunity this year, but we will | :03:28. | :03:30. | |
be back. And whilst there is widespread | :03:31. | :03:33. | |
disappointment, for some the show still goes on. Livestock classes are | :03:34. | :03:37. | |
being judged and rosettes handed out. | :03:38. | :03:42. | |
There was no way we could have said don't go ahead, because they are all | :03:43. | :03:45. | |
here, they might as well enjoy the day. We need space at the moment to | :03:46. | :03:49. | |
close the show down safely and to get people home safely and hopefully | :03:50. | :03:57. | |
the public will respect that. Heidi Davey, BBC Spotlight. Some | :03:58. | :04:07. | |
sport now and congratulations to Cornwall rugby who have reached the | :04:08. | :04:11. | |
final of the county championships by beating Hertfordshire heart `` | :04:12. | :04:12. | |
Hertfordshire. Now for the weather. Hello there. We have had some fairly | :04:13. | :04:27. | |
unsettled conditions in the South West today. This is all thanks to in | :04:28. | :04:31. | |
area of low pressure, and we just still have a yellow "be aware" | :04:32. | :04:34. | |
warning from the Met Office, issued this morning, for heavy rain for the | :04:35. | :04:37. | |
next few hours. 20 to 30 millimetres possible. And you can see the | :04:38. | :04:40. | |
showers swinging in from the west, so some heavy downpours overnight | :04:41. | :04:43. | |
tonight. But overnight lows, 12 Celsius. It won't be too cold. On to | :04:44. | :04:46. | |
tomorrow morning, then, the showers are set to continue, especially | :04:47. | :04:49. | |
across parts of Devon and Cornwall. But further east, more in the way of | :04:50. | :04:52. | |
brightness, hopefully some decent sunny spells here. And temperatures | :04:53. | :04:55. | |
tomorrow reaching about the 15 or 16 Celsius mark. Moderate southerly | :04:56. | :04:57. | |
winds. Looking forward to Bank Holiday Monday, probably the better | :04:58. | :05:00. | |
day, with more in the way of sunny spells, but still a few showers. | :05:01. | :05:03. | |
We are back tomorrow at 11.00 am with a special live edition of the | :05:04. | :05:13. | |
The heavens opened for some of us today. As far as tomorrow is | :05:14. | :05:18. | |
concerned, more of the | :05:19. | :05:20. |
