Serial child killer Robert Black has long been a prime suspect. | :00:12. | :00:22. | |
Genette's father says he just wants the truth. | :00:23. | :00:27. | |
We want to know what's happened to her. I want to know whether her body | :00:28. | :00:36. | |
is still around that it could have been salvaged or whether she's even | :00:37. | :00:38. | |
alive. Why have South West ambulances | :00:39. | :00:45. | |
turned up at the wrong addresses? New statistics show mistakes have | :00:46. | :00:49. | |
been made 500 times in five years. And the woman who inspired | :00:50. | :00:52. | |
Pablo Picasso travels from Devon to see an exhibition | :00:53. | :00:54. | |
featuring pictures of her. To see them on the wall is quite | :00:55. | :01:09. | |
moving and they're beautiful and the more I look at them the more I love | :01:10. | :01:23. | |
them. The father of the Devon schoolgirl who has been missing for | :01:24. | :01:28. | |
almost 40 years has told Spotlight he welcomes a new attempt by the | :01:29. | :01:32. | |
police to solve the case. Detectives have asked specialist prosecutors to | :01:33. | :01:35. | |
look at bringing murder charges against the multiple child killer | :01:36. | :01:38. | |
Robert Black, long considered the prime suspect. The police want to | :01:39. | :01:43. | |
use evidence of Black's previous crimes, a series of murders of young | :01:44. | :01:47. | |
girls. Our home affairs correspondent reports. | :01:48. | :01:54. | |
The disappearance of Genette Tate has become a part | :01:55. | :01:57. | |
Only 13 years old she vanished while delivering newspapers in the | :01:58. | :02:01. | |
Despite extensive searches, involving thousands of volunteers, | :02:02. | :02:07. | |
Now almost 40 years on, detectives are making | :02:08. | :02:10. | |
They want to bring charges against the serial child killer | :02:11. | :02:15. | |
Robert Black, long considered the prime suspect. | :02:16. | :02:20. | |
I'd like to think that somewhere deep down | :02:21. | :02:23. | |
in his gut he's got a feeling about all of this that will eventually | :02:24. | :02:27. | |
That's what I would like to happen, with him to confess, tell us what | :02:28. | :02:33. | |
he did with her body, even if it's not very nice, but I'd like | :02:34. | :02:37. | |
to know, before I die. Detectives want to use what's called bad | :02:38. | :02:40. | |
Three years ago, he was convicted of killing another girl, Jennifer | :02:41. | :02:47. | |
In that case, bad character evidence was put before the jury. | :02:48. | :02:51. | |
Black had previously been found guilty of murdering | :02:52. | :02:55. | |
Using such evidence in a trial for Genette's murder, lawyers say, | :02:56. | :03:02. | |
Of course, we all know from looking in the media how sometimes people | :03:03. | :03:09. | |
can be almost convicted because of their pasts, rather than | :03:10. | :03:12. | |
A jury must, of course, consider what is the evidence that this | :03:13. | :03:17. | |
No matter how bad their past has been, they must | :03:18. | :03:21. | |
The reconstruction of her disappearance, | :03:22. | :03:28. | |
including how her bike was found, has become a lasting and poignant | :03:29. | :03:31. | |
Solving it after all these years would, one retired Devon | :03:32. | :03:37. | |
and Cornwall Police superintendent told me, lay to rest the force's | :03:38. | :03:41. | |
The community in east Devon and the community across Devon | :03:42. | :03:47. | |
and its police force are desperate to try and get a conviction to try | :03:48. | :03:51. | |
and close this case because whilst it remains open, it | :03:52. | :03:54. | |
It's still an area of concern and they want that reassurance that | :03:55. | :03:59. | |
People talk about this closure thing and it doesn't happen. | :04:00. | :04:08. | |
You still wonder what would have happened if it hadn't occurred. | :04:09. | :04:18. | |
A senior Devon and Cornwall Police source told us that | :04:19. | :04:22. | |
if this attempt to solve the case by using bad character evidence against | :04:23. | :04:26. | |
Black failed, they would consider once more interviewing him about | :04:27. | :04:30. | |
Genette's disappearance in prison where he is serving | :04:31. | :04:33. | |
Simon Hall is live in Aylesbury. What reaction has there been there? | :04:34. | :04:49. | |
I have spoken to people in the village. Their hopes have been | :04:50. | :04:54. | |
raised and dashed over the years. There is a sense of hoping, wanting | :04:55. | :05:00. | |
to find out what happened to Geanette and this may offer them | :05:01. | :05:03. | |
opportunity for that. It's perhaps best summed up by a memorial stone | :05:04. | :05:07. | |
in the Churchyard, which is very moving, the last line says simply: | :05:08. | :05:11. | |
May she one day return here to rest in peace. How significant do you | :05:12. | :05:18. | |
think today's development could be? Well, generations of detectives have | :05:19. | :05:22. | |
tried and failed to solve this case. They keep trying and that's because | :05:23. | :05:26. | |
it's their duty, but more than that, I think the potential rewards are so | :05:27. | :05:30. | |
very great. There is the potential for some closure for the police, for | :05:31. | :05:33. | |
the community here and for the country, it's such a notorious case, | :05:34. | :05:38. | |
and as her dad was saying in that report, perhaps not closure for the | :05:39. | :05:41. | |
family when they've suffered so much over so many years, but perhaps a | :05:42. | :05:46. | |
sense of comfort. There is a lot at stake. What are the Devon and | :05:47. | :05:50. | |
Cornwall Police saying about the new investigation? Officially very | :05:51. | :05:53. | |
little. We have a brief statement from them. It confirms they're | :05:54. | :05:57. | |
working with a complex case work unit of the Crown Prosecution | :05:58. | :06:00. | |
Service on the case but says the work is at an early stage and will | :06:01. | :06:04. | |
take sometime to complete. The Crown Prosecution Service add that no | :06:05. | :06:07. | |
final decisions on what to do with the case have yet been taken. Thank | :06:08. | :06:16. | |
you. There is more on that story online. | :06:17. | :06:23. | |
Figures obtained by Spotlight show that ambulances in Devon, Cornwall, | :06:24. | :06:25. | |
Somerset and Dorset have gone to the wrong address more than 500 | :06:26. | :06:29. | |
There were 133 instances in 2009 ` this has dropped over | :06:30. | :06:33. | |
the period and has been below 100 for the last two years. | :06:34. | :06:36. | |
The South Western Ambulance Service NHS Trust is one of the largest | :06:37. | :06:40. | |
It's answered around two million calls in the last five years. | :06:41. | :06:43. | |
After our Freedom of Information Act request ` it said it couldn't tell | :06:44. | :06:47. | |
us why every ambulance ended up at the wrong address | :06:48. | :06:49. | |
But it has broken down the figures for last year. | :06:50. | :06:56. | |
Of the 94 incidents, 33 were due to incorrect details | :06:57. | :07:00. | |
given by the person calling the ambulance, 28 were as a result of | :07:01. | :07:04. | |
Five were due to problems with sat navs while 28 are unexplained. | :07:05. | :07:12. | |
Earlier, I spoke to Neil Le Chevalier from the Ambulance Trust | :07:13. | :07:15. | |
Obviously I am concerned about the figures. | :07:16. | :07:22. | |
The calls are vitally important to us that we get the call | :07:23. | :07:26. | |
and location of the 999 call right every time but the figures must be | :07:27. | :07:33. | |
We deal with over 400,000 emergency calls | :07:34. | :07:36. | |
in a year throughout the counties of Devon, Cornwall, Somerset | :07:37. | :07:39. | |
and the Isles of Scilly and these relate to a very small percentage. | :07:40. | :07:43. | |
They've also gone down over the years. | :07:44. | :07:45. | |
There has been a reduction again because we look | :07:46. | :07:48. | |
at training and retraining of staff, we learn from lessons and we have | :07:49. | :07:52. | |
We have up to date Ordnance Survey maps, together we with technology | :07:53. | :07:56. | |
existence we can pinpoint people's calls on the landline and | :07:57. | :07:59. | |
triangulate where people are ringing from their mobiles and this helps us | :08:00. | :08:03. | |
Have there been any serious repercussions from your crews | :08:04. | :08:11. | |
Any repercussion we take through a serious incident route | :08:12. | :08:15. | |
and have a thorough investigation as to the cause of the wrong location. | :08:16. | :08:19. | |
So yes, we have picked up a small number again. | :08:20. | :08:21. | |
But there have been repercussions for patients? | :08:22. | :08:24. | |
Again a very small number of patients have been affected | :08:25. | :08:27. | |
by the wrong location but those patients have been informed. | :08:28. | :08:29. | |
Although your figures have improved they're still not perfect, what are | :08:30. | :08:32. | |
Well again we are refreshing our staff because obviously location of | :08:33. | :08:37. | |
the incident is very important and we are looking at seeking further | :08:38. | :08:40. | |
One of the problems we have in our beautiful area is visitors | :08:41. | :08:45. | |
come to the area so we are looking at working with the Ramblers | :08:46. | :08:49. | |
Association so we can introduce grid references when they call us as a | :08:50. | :08:53. | |
part of initiative when people go out in the countryside. Some of | :08:54. | :08:56. | |
the mistakes were made by your own staff, are they being retrained? | :08:57. | :09:01. | |
Some of the staff in the control room will be. | :09:02. | :09:03. | |
Every incident that is shown as an incorrect location we actually | :09:04. | :09:07. | |
?4 million has been set aside to compensate communities | :09:08. | :09:19. | |
around the proposed site of a new nuclear power station in Somerset. | :09:20. | :09:22. | |
Villagers who are going to be disrupted during the building works | :09:23. | :09:25. | |
can now apply for money from the Hinkley Community Impact Fund. | :09:26. | :09:28. | |

The cash handout announced today is guaranteed | :09:41. | :09:42. | |

A Garden of Remembrance for parents who have lost babies prematurely has | :09:46. | :09:49. | |
been officially opened in south Devon. The memorial garden in Totnes | :09:50. | :09:52. | |
is the first of its kind in the region. The sculptor, also a | :09:53. | :09:57. | |
bereaved mother, hopes it will become a place where people from | :09:58. | :10:01. | |
across the south`west can find some comfort. It's crucial to have that | :10:02. | :10:05. | |
moment where you can think about the little woun without distraction and | :10:06. | :10:10. | |
there's somewhere to go and grieve or be happy, or whatever you need to | :10:11. | :10:14. | |
do to think about and remember your baby. | :10:15. | :10:20. | |
The company responsible for maintaining roads in Cornwall is | :10:21. | :10:23. | |
trying out a new way of dealing with the debris collected from the side | :10:24. | :10:27. | |
of the carriageway. Much ends up in a landfill but it's now being | :10:28. | :10:29. | |
treated in a process which isn't only better for the environment but | :10:30. | :10:31. | |
saves money. This is the stuff which runs | :10:32. | :10:37. | |
off Cornwall's roads being emptied at a new works | :10:38. | :10:40. | |
in Helsbury quarry near caMelford. How then do they take something | :10:41. | :10:43. | |
so dirty and end up with something Silt, oil and petrol residues are | :10:44. | :10:46. | |
awash from the roads Tankers clear out the waste | :10:47. | :10:51. | |
and bring it to the quarry It's dried out and then | :10:52. | :10:55. | |
filtered using straw bales. The solid matter is turned | :10:56. | :10:58. | |
into compost for use Meanwhile, the waste water passes | :10:59. | :11:01. | |
through a series of reed beds And one of the ways they know this | :11:02. | :11:12. | |
process is working is that these Cormac, which runs the site, | :11:13. | :11:16. | |
say it will divert waste from landfill and could reduce costs | :11:17. | :11:21. | |
by more than ?100,000 a year. This vehicle that you see behind us | :11:22. | :11:24. | |
is a very expensive piece of kit. What we want to do is to keep that | :11:25. | :11:28. | |
emptying the gullies and not travelling for miles and | :11:29. | :11:31. | |
miles, possibly into Devon in the not too distant future if we hadn't | :11:32. | :11:34. | |
done this, to discharge its load. To see such an intelligent piece | :11:35. | :11:42. | |
of work going on, which is actually about thinking hard | :11:43. | :11:45. | |
about how you can do something in an environmentally sound way, that | :11:46. | :11:48. | |
makes it more efficient and more effective to maintain the roads, | :11:49. | :11:51. | |
of which we have 6,000 kilometres to look after in Cornwall, | :11:52. | :11:54. | |
is a fantastic thing to be doing. It's still early days but | :11:55. | :12:01. | |
if the trial here proves successful, there are plans to open two more | :12:02. | :12:03. | |
of these treatment facilities We are off to Twickenham in a | :12:04. | :12:24. | |
minute. We will talk live to Cornwall coach Graham Dawe. And | :12:25. | :12:29. | |
whose side are you on? Surprises on the home front in World War I. One | :12:30. | :12:59. | |
of our reporters has uncovered a remarkable story after a chance | :13:00. | :13:05. | |
encounter at an art class. Emma was making ceramics next to a woman who | :13:06. | :13:10. | |
inspired Picasso. Fresh`faced and shy, | :13:11. | :13:16. | |
her naivety caught on film by Andre viler but it was Pablo Picasso who | :13:17. | :13:19. | |
immortalised her. Sylvette was nicknamed the girl | :13:20. | :13:21. | |
with the ponytail and Picasso I joined Lydia in Germany at this | :13:22. | :13:26. | |
exhibition, Sylvette, Sylvette, Sylvette, Picasso and the model, | :13:27. | :13:33. | |
dedicated to her role as his muse. How does it feel walking in here | :13:34. | :13:37. | |
and seeing yourself in a picture with Picasso so huge on | :13:38. | :13:42. | |
the wall, how do you feel about it? You know, | :13:43. | :13:48. | |
it brings tears in my heart. And I go back 60 years to that | :13:49. | :13:57. | |
day which was like magic really. I was always on my own with him, | :13:58. | :14:10. | |
no other people, It was a muse, inspiration and in a | :14:11. | :14:13. | |
way I consoled him because his wife left him, Francoise Gilot, and he | :14:14. | :14:19. | |
was sad and I cheered him up really. It's a strange sort of thing, | :14:20. | :14:31. | |
you know, you lose something So this is my old memory suitcase, | :14:32. | :14:36. | |
with photos of me in my youth. Sylvette now calls herself | :14:37. | :14:47. | |
Lydia Corbett and lives in Devon. When she first met Picasso she was | :14:48. | :14:50. | |
just 19 living in the south He saw us sitting there and he went | :14:51. | :14:55. | |
over the wall, he thought what a He put a picture | :14:56. | :15:02. | |
of a girl with a ponytail, a little sketch and we knew it was me because | :15:03. | :15:07. | |
I was the only one there like that. And he said, | :15:08. | :15:17. | |
I want to paint Sylvette. The art world has largely bypassed | :15:18. | :15:19. | |
the Sylvette series until now. For many years it was neglected, | :15:20. | :15:29. | |
people didn't really know about it, it was never seen as an important | :15:30. | :15:33. | |
chapter in Picasso's late work and I think this exhibition shows actually | :15:34. | :15:36. | |
it's a very substantial series. It's one of the most comprehensive | :15:37. | :15:41. | |
series he created from one subject and he also painted her sitting as | :15:42. | :15:53. | |
a model which he usually never did. Whether they're Cubist | :15:54. | :15:56. | |
and angular or soft and realistic, He used to dress up, put funny nose | :15:57. | :15:59. | |
on or glasses with a moustache When Lydia last saw all these | :16:00. | :16:06. | |
pictures together Picasso took her into a room | :16:07. | :16:15. | |
and asked her to choose one. They're now scattered in private | :16:16. | :16:18. | |
collections and art galleries across the world and worth considerably | :16:19. | :16:21. | |
more than when she owned one. Do you feel sad that you don't own | :16:22. | :16:23. | |
a Picasso painting? Actually I am pleased because I | :16:24. | :16:31. | |
would be terrified of burglars. So this exhibition is a chance | :16:32. | :16:38. | |
for her family to see the Picasso She's talked about it | :16:39. | :16:42. | |
and we have kind of imagined it but over the years there hasn't | :16:43. | :16:46. | |
been anything really solid to see. So to actually come here | :16:47. | :16:49. | |
and see them all together as The German media are very interested | :16:50. | :16:52. | |
in this grandmother from south hams. Her own art is now | :16:53. | :17:03. | |
on show next door to Picasso's. She was his muse | :17:04. | :17:06. | |
but now he is her inspiration. Picasso gave me the sense of fun | :17:07. | :17:14. | |
and let go, you know. Remarkable story and to have that | :17:15. | :17:30. | |
legacy immortalised. I never sit next to anyone that interesting! | :17:31. | :17:34. | |
Present company expected, of course. Fabulous story, though. Dig yourself | :17:35. | :17:38. | |
out of that one. Sorry. Sports news now. | :17:39. | :17:42. | |
Cornwall took on the champions Lancashire at Twickenham this | :17:43. | :17:46. | |
weekend looking to avenge last year's defeat but there was | :17:47. | :17:49. | |
heartbreak for the men in plaque and gold. Our reporter, who won the | :17:50. | :17:53. | |
title when he played for Cornwall in 1999 was given special access to the | :17:54. | :17:55. | |
team. Sport can be cruel at times. Turn | :17:56. | :17:59. | |
the clock back a couple of hours and thvs a very different dressing room. | :18:00. | :18:04. | |
Under the new coach there was a real sense this would be their year and | :18:05. | :18:08. | |
Cornwall would be crowned champions for the fourth tripe. It was simple, | :18:09. | :18:14. | |
they had `` for the fourth time. It was simple, they had come here to | :18:15. | :18:19. | |
win. For the first 40 minutes Lancashire were wilting in the sun. | :18:20. | :18:33. | |
And when Robinson's run ended with another try, Cornwall were 13 points | :18:34. | :18:39. | |
clear. And the dream was alive. But that | :18:40. | :18:46. | |
dream soon turned into a nightmare as Lancashire showed just why they | :18:47. | :18:49. | |
had won four of the last five finals. Three tries in ten tins | :18:50. | :18:54. | |
turned the game on its head. `` in ten minutes turned the game on its | :18:55. | :19:01. | |
head. The comeback was complete. For Cornwall, the case of what might | :19:02. | :19:06. | |
have been. Yeah, it's frustrating. It was a real feel`good at | :19:07. | :19:10. | |
half`time, a buzz, we had April opportunity to kick on. Obviously, | :19:11. | :19:14. | |
there was that ten minutes in the second half that killed the | :19:15. | :19:17. | |
momentum. We weren't able to come back from that really. A tough one | :19:18. | :19:20. | |
to take. We looked dangerous, scored a couple of nice tries. To be fair, | :19:21. | :19:25. | |
they could have been dead and buried at half`time but they staid in and | :19:26. | :19:28. | |
scored the first couple of scores in the second half. And took it away | :19:29. | :19:36. | |
from us. As promised, the Cornwall coach | :19:37. | :19:39. | |
Graham joins us now. What a shame, what went wrong? Well, it's a game | :19:40. | :19:44. | |
of rugby, there is always a winner, always a loser. Lancashire, 6th | :19:45. | :19:49. | |
final in a row, so they're no mugs, they've built staidily over the | :19:50. | :19:53. | |
years a good `` steadily over the years a good team. My first year, a | :19:54. | :19:59. | |
lot of the players have been before and did play exceptionally well to | :20:00. | :20:03. | |
get to the final. But Lancashire turned up the heat with a | :20:04. | :20:07. | |
replacements, I have been criticised slightly. I was going to say what | :20:08. | :20:11. | |
about your substitutes, you did have a good lead? We lost three with | :20:12. | :20:17. | |
injury. Damien has played virtually every minute of the games this | :20:18. | :20:29. | |
season, and Jamie, Louise `` Louis. We knew Lancashire would go all to | :20:30. | :20:32. | |
the end, quality players. We decided we wanted to put them back on at the | :20:33. | :20:36. | |
end of game hopefully to win but it wasn't to be. They scored those | :20:37. | :20:41. | |
three tries. You have played and won at Twickenham several occasions, | :20:42. | :20:44. | |
were you tempted to put your boots on and get out there? No, I wasn't, | :20:45. | :20:49. | |
no. It's a young man's game obviously. I was immensely proud of | :20:50. | :20:56. | |
the guys and how they've got there. It's been a hard campaign. They've | :20:57. | :21:04. | |
all had long seasons, Lancashire play highly but we got to whether | :21:05. | :21:08. | |
and try and be better in another year, it's not just the game, it's | :21:09. | :21:13. | |
the occasion. Are you going to stay with Cornwall? It's such an | :21:14. | :21:17. | |
occasion, isn't it? It's a wonderful County to be involved in. The people | :21:18. | :21:20. | |
that get behind the team are brilliant. Hopefully I can stay | :21:21. | :21:24. | |
involved in some capacity and try and get there again. Well done for | :21:25. | :21:27. | |
getting there. It was an achievement. Nice to see new the | :21:28. | :21:32. | |
studio again, Graham. Thanks. Thank you very much indeed. | :21:33. | :21:37. | |
Ruddy`faced young men bravely heading out into battle, that's the | :21:38. | :21:41. | |
popular image of the start of the World War I but a special BBC | :21:42. | :21:45. | |
south`west documentary tonight, part of the BBC's commemoration of the | :21:46. | :21:49. | |
war, tells a different story, one of strikes, struggle and unrest on the | :21:50. | :21:56. | |
home front. Sam Smith reports. 1914, thousands of British lads | :21:57. | :22:03. | |
enthusiastically heed their nation's call, among them men and boys from | :22:04. | :22:08. | |
Devon. But there is another war`time story, one of a home front divided. | :22:09. | :22:14. | |
In tonight's programme history Professor Jean Seaton investigates a | :22:15. | :22:17. | |
rarely remembered series of industrial disputes that went on | :22:18. | :22:20. | |
throughout the war in the south`west, like the strike of 1918 | :22:21. | :22:28. | |
when the all`women workforce demanded an extra penny an hour for | :22:29. | :22:33. | |
making uniforms. The women Marched 13 miles from Exeter to here to | :22:34. | :22:37. | |
persuade their fellow female workers to join them in the strike. They | :22:38. | :22:46. | |
were met on the `` object the `` on the bridge by soldiers who | :22:47. | :22:49. | |
threatened to throw them in the river. They were undaunted and did | :22:50. | :22:52. | |
persuade the other women workers to join them in the strike. Stories | :22:53. | :22:56. | |
like this reveal uncomfortable truths. But the struggle on the home | :22:57. | :23:00. | |
front was as real as the conflict abroad. It claimed so many brave | :23:01. | :23:09. | |
lives. And you can see more stories of | :23:10. | :23:14. | |
war`time industrial conflict in the region uncovered by Professor Jean | :23:15. | :23:21. | |
Seaton tonight on BBC1 at 7. 30pm. Tomorrow on Spotlight I will be | :23:22. | :23:24. | |
taking a look at the remarkable story of Devon pilot Oscar Grieg who | :23:25. | :23:32. | |
was shot down by the Red Baron. Now the latest leg of the Queen's | :23:33. | :23:38. | |
baton relay for this year's Commonwealth Games arrives in | :23:39. | :23:42. | |
Plymouth early tomorrow morning. The city's Life Centre has been chosen | :23:43. | :23:45. | |
to host the visit can only 50 days to go before the Games. You can hear | :23:46. | :23:53. | |
the baton's arrival live on BBC Radio Devon from 7.00 am. Will it be | :23:54. | :23:59. | |
arriving in sunshine or rain or anything else for that matter? | :24:00. | :24:04. | |
It's looking changeable this week. But getting warmer towards the | :24:05. | :24:09. | |
weekend. Good evening. The baton not with us for too long tomorrow | :24:10. | :24:15. | |
morning. It will be cloudy in Plymouth for the arrival, maybe the | :24:16. | :24:19. | |
chance of a few showers, as well. Tomorrow starts off much as today's | :24:20. | :24:23. | |
ended, cloudy with a risk of showers. A changeable picture this | :24:24. | :24:27. | |
week. Sunshine at times and a few showers. We have light winds through | :24:28. | :24:32. | |
this week. Any showers tomorrow could be fairly slow`moving. The big | :24:33. | :24:38. | |
picture, you can see the cloud through today. Some showers, as | :24:39. | :24:43. | |
well. A cold front was pushing through. You can see it in more | :24:44. | :24:48. | |
detail on the pressure chart. Into tomorrow still that low pressure | :24:49. | :24:54. | |
with us keeping things unsettled. And then into Wednesday we are | :24:55. | :24:59. | |
seeing the next weather system, that will bring us rain. Currently it | :25:00. | :25:03. | |
looks like the bulk of the rain will be further to the east. Many of us | :25:04. | :25:08. | |
could miss the heaviest of the rain. And then for Thursday looking to be | :25:09. | :25:15. | |
the best day this week. We are between two weather systems then. | :25:16. | :25:22. | |
Over the past couple of hours you can see the cloud around, also two | :25:23. | :25:26. | |
lines of showers you will notice where we have seen those weather | :25:27. | :25:29. | |
fronts pushing through. There have been a few brighter breaks, | :25:30. | :25:33. | |
particularly for the Torbay area but a fair few showers, as well. We will | :25:34. | :25:40. | |
keep some showers into tonight. The cloud with us, where we see clear | :25:41. | :25:45. | |
breaks they'll fill in tonight. Under that big duvet of cloud it | :25:46. | :25:50. | |
should hold temperatures up. Don't think many of us will see below 11 | :25:51. | :25:57. | |
or 12. With the light winds we are likely to see mist forming. A grey | :25:58. | :26:04. | |
start to tomorrow. Still a lot of cloud around first thing tomorrow | :26:05. | :26:10. | |
and that mist, still a few showers. Through the day we will see a few | :26:11. | :26:13. | |
breaks in the cloud allowing sunshine through. With the sunshine | :26:14. | :26:18. | |
also comes the risk of showers. They could be on the heavy side and maybe | :26:19. | :26:25. | |
slow`moving in the light winds. Temperatures tomorrow, similar to | :26:26. | :26:35. | |
today. Across to the Isles of Scilly, it's | :26:36. | :26:38. | |
a grey start too. We should see bright spells, particularly into the | :26:39. | :26:42. | |
afternoon. There is always a risk of a heavy shower here, as well. Tide | :26:43. | :27:00. | |
times for tomorrow. : Surf`wise, not a great amount | :27:01. | :27:06. | |
around. More for the north coast, although tending to be choppy or | :27:07. | :27:11. | |
messy. The coastal waters forecast, the winds west or north`west, | :27:12. | :27:16. | |
occasionally picking up to force four or five later. Moderate or good | :27:17. | :27:23. | |
visibility. The outlook, Wednesday rain initially but it should become | :27:24. | :27:27. | |
brighter later. Temperatures gradually creeping up as we get to | :27:28. | :27:30. | |
the end of the week. Have a good evening. | :27:31. | :27:33. | |
Thank you very much. We will be back with the late news and weather at | :27:34. | :27:39. | |
10. 25pm, but that's all from Spotlight. Have a nice evening, | :27:40. | :27:41. | |
thank you for joining us. ..then... | :27:42. | :28:04. | |
..he landed... ..and in a flurry | :28:05. | :28:11. | |
of feathers, they were gone. But that isn't quite | :28:12. | :28:23. | |
the end of the story. Perhaps you'll dream | :28:24. | :28:25. | |
of a great adventure. 'I'm going on an adventure.' | :28:26. | :28:26. | |
Wow. That is a long way. | :28:27. | :28:38. | |
Quite a bit of it is on bikes. What are you going to do | :28:39. | :28:42. | |
about your hair? They told me I had good technique, | :28:43. | :28:43. | |
I'm quite happy with that. Is this the most adventurous thing | :28:44. | :28:48. | |
you've ever done? Without a doubt. | :28:49. | :28:52. |
