:00:18. > :00:23.disabled people. One woman tells Spotlight her living condithons are
:00:24. > :00:26.Victorian. Good evening. Sud Freer has to eat and sleep in the same
:00:27. > :00:33.room because there's no suitable housing for her to move in to.
:00:34. > :00:38.I have to strip wash in my kitchen. There is no privacy, no dignity My
:00:39. > :00:41.world exists is like my lounge is my bedroom and my kitchen is mx
:00:42. > :00:44.bathroom. Also tonight, traffic chaos. The
:00:45. > :00:48.only motorway route into thd region has been closed for most of the day,
:00:49. > :00:50.following a serious accident on the M5.
:00:51. > :00:57.And a baby boom for the beavers living on the River Otter. But the
:00:58. > :01:00.family could still be moved on. There are nearly a million
:01:01. > :01:05.registered disabled people hn the Southwest, accounting for ndarly 20%
:01:06. > :01:08.of the population. One charhty says a lack of suitable homes me`n some
:01:09. > :01:13.are struggling to maintain living conditions. A Devon woman who has to
:01:14. > :01:16.wash in her kitchen sink, and who effectively lives in just one room,
:01:17. > :01:22.says her situation is Victorian Sophie Pierce reports.
:01:23. > :01:27.This is my world. It has bedn for the last two years. This is my
:01:28. > :01:34.lounge. As you can see, it's also my bedroom. As you can see. Now, I will
:01:35. > :01:37.show you where I have to go out to the toilet every day. The door has
:01:38. > :01:43.been removed, because I could not get a wheelchair in there. Ht means,
:01:44. > :01:47.if I need to go to the toildt, there is no privacy. I have to ask people
:01:48. > :01:50.to leave. It is totally Victorian. Toilets are not supposed to be
:01:51. > :01:54.public viewing. They are me`nt to be private, you know. Two years ago,
:01:55. > :01:59.Sue Freer had an accident and ended up in a wheelchair. Since then, she
:02:00. > :02:02.has not been able to use her upstairs bedroom and bathroom. Sue's
:02:03. > :02:10.landlord is Westward Housing, which says it has tried all it can to help
:02:11. > :02:14.Sue move. The biggest probldm is the fact that she has been on the
:02:15. > :02:17.waiting list now for two ye`rs. She has got the highest banding, so
:02:18. > :02:20.Torbay Council have recognised that she's got a need. They have given
:02:21. > :02:24.her the highest banding banding for her to bid for properties. But of
:02:25. > :02:27.course, there just aren't enough properties that will meet hdr needs
:02:28. > :02:30.available. A national charity for disabled people says Sue's hs not an
:02:31. > :02:36.isolated case. And is an issue which needs to go up the political agenda.
:02:37. > :02:38.At the moment, there is a bhll in Parliament that sets out thd
:02:39. > :02:42.building regulations. The w`y in which new properties need to be
:02:43. > :02:45.built. You could make a tinx change to that, so that new houses have to
:02:46. > :02:49.be built to these adaptable standards. And that more hotses need
:02:50. > :02:55.to be built to fully wheelchair accessible standards.
:02:56. > :02:58.They need to listen to us who say, look, we need purpose`built
:02:59. > :03:03.property. We need our dignity. And we need to feel human. With no
:03:04. > :03:06.prospect of a bungalow any time soon, Sue will simply have to
:03:07. > :03:13.continue to cope with the unsuitable living conditions.
:03:14. > :03:16.There have been long delays on the main route into the region today,
:03:17. > :03:22.after a serious crash closed the M5 in Somerset. It happened between
:03:23. > :03:25.Bridgwater and Taunton in the early hours, but the effects are still
:03:26. > :03:29.being felt tonight. Andrew Plant reports.
:03:30. > :03:35.Miles of tailbacks and diversions lasting three hours and mord.
:03:36. > :03:41.Sneaking not just along the M5, but every available exit, causing chaos
:03:42. > :03:48.and huge waiting for anyone heading south stop it is an absolutd
:03:49. > :03:54.nightmare. The traffic was bad, trying to get out of the was chaos.
:03:55. > :04:01.This was half a mile north of the turn`off at Taunton, a lorrx lying
:04:02. > :04:05.as if asleep, from three o'clock this morning and police rescue crews
:04:06. > :04:12.working to try to clear the lanes, but moving this fallen giant was not
:04:13. > :04:17.simple. The road was closed for more than ten hours before policd managed
:04:18. > :04:19.to open one of the lanes, the outs they carried weight, and yot can
:04:20. > :04:25.probably see why it has been slow, that order and lorry was across all
:04:26. > :04:29.three lanes and it has taken recovery teams all morning `nd part
:04:30. > :04:34.of the afternoon to get it on its wheels and drag it a few metres
:04:35. > :04:39.Thousands of drivers to divdrsions and for businesses it meant massive
:04:40. > :04:47.delays. Normally 30 minutes into work, but it took 90 minutes. It is
:04:48. > :04:51.not clear what caused the crash The driver of the audience lorrx is
:04:52. > :04:56.still in hospital tonight in a serious condition and the effect is
:04:57. > :04:59.still being felt, with the hnside lane and hard shoulder closdd while
:05:00. > :05:05.the crash barriers are repahred overnight.
:05:06. > :05:08.Almost 40 people have been `rrested across the South West as part of a
:05:09. > :05:12.major police operation against online paedophiles. All are
:05:13. > :05:17.suspected of downloading indecent images of children. Our homd affairs
:05:18. > :05:21.correspondent Simon Hall reports. This is the result of a six`month
:05:22. > :05:26.operation by the new Nation`l Crime Agency. And it has led to a
:05:27. > :05:29.substantial number of arrests across the South West of people suspected
:05:30. > :05:32.of downloading indecent images of children from the Internet. This is
:05:33. > :05:36.the breakdown in the number of arrests.
:05:37. > :05:43.There were the most in Devon, with 29. In Dorset, there were ehght
:05:44. > :05:47.arrests. And in Avon and Solerset, there were two arrests.
:05:48. > :05:51.Detectives see this operation as important, because they know that
:05:52. > :05:54.people who download indecent images of children online often go on to
:05:55. > :05:58.commit actual physical abusd. And the police want to intervend to
:05:59. > :06:02.prevent that from happening. ?? YELLOW We want to send a very strong
:06:03. > :06:05.and clear message to paedophiles who are using the Internet to access
:06:06. > :06:10.indecent images of children. It is not a safe place for them to do
:06:11. > :06:13.this. We will find them. Because every time somebody goes online and
:06:14. > :06:17.does this type of activity, they leave a digital footprint. We will
:06:18. > :06:20.find that and we will use that in evidence. And we will come knocking
:06:21. > :06:24.on people's doors with a warrant and we will then seize their colputers
:06:25. > :06:29.and eventually find the evidence which may lead to their prosecution.
:06:30. > :06:32.One important point to menthon. Any children who these potential
:06:33. > :06:35.offenders may have had access to have now been safeguarded bx the
:06:36. > :06:38.police and social services. Now detectives have seized a substantial
:06:39. > :06:43.amount of evidence as part of this operation. Mainly computers and hard
:06:44. > :06:52.drives. They will now be an`lysed. That can be a slow process. It may
:06:53. > :06:56.take several months. Tonight, Devon and Cornwall Police
:06:57. > :06:59.say all those arrested in their force area have now been released on
:07:00. > :07:04.police bail pending further inquiries.
:07:05. > :07:07.Potato farmers in the region say they are facing one of their worst
:07:08. > :07:11.years ever, in spite of the promise of bumper crops. The problel is a
:07:12. > :07:13.drop in demand, which has sden the wholesale price of the vegetable
:07:14. > :07:17.fall dramatically. One Somerset farmer says his crop is almost
:07:18. > :07:25.worthless. Clinton Rogers h`s the story. These were left from the last
:07:26. > :07:30.harvest, 2013, which we are now not able to sell. In Nick Bragg's cold
:07:31. > :07:34.store, there sits 150 tonnes of potatoes which no one wants. So he
:07:35. > :07:41.has made the decision to turn them over to animals feed. And the price
:07:42. > :07:47.he will get? ?20 a tonne. 20? 2 . And what were you getting this time
:07:48. > :07:50.last year? 280. I mean, that is just an extraordinary drop! Can xou
:07:51. > :07:53.financially cope with something like that? Um, it's going to be `
:07:54. > :07:57.struggle this year. But going forward, no, we've seriouslx got to
:07:58. > :08:00.review what we're doing. And it may be that we do not grow potatoes next
:08:01. > :08:05.year. Ironically, the probldm is that this year promises a btmper
:08:06. > :08:09.crop of potatoes. But at a time when demand for the humble spud hs
:08:10. > :08:15.falling. Retail sales are down 1%. Why? Well, it seems that, over the
:08:16. > :08:20.years, our eating habits, and for that matter TV marketing, h`ve
:08:21. > :08:26.changed. Nowadays, our focus is more on convenience foods. Rice, pasta,
:08:27. > :08:32.couscous. A bit of a challenge, then, for those whose job it is to
:08:33. > :08:35.market the potato. The challenge is, when you are such a staple `nd
:08:36. > :08:39.traditional part of the diet, as we see other carbohydrates comd along
:08:40. > :08:43.and we travel more. And we `ll start to eat a more varied diet. Ht all
:08:44. > :08:48.hits back on the potato. And eating a little bit less can have puite a
:08:49. > :08:51.big impact. We will be lookhng at about 328 acres this year to
:08:52. > :08:56.harvest. All this does not bode well for the future as far as Nick Bragg
:08:57. > :08:59.is concerned. From his fields in South Petherton, he is expecting to
:09:00. > :09:04.harvest about 8000 tonnes of potatoes in the autumn. But if he
:09:05. > :09:05.cannot sell those he has in store from last year, what chance of
:09:06. > :09:17.selling this year's harvest? A row has broken out over the
:09:18. > :09:23.feeding of swans on a South Devon estuary. Bigbury Parish Council says
:09:24. > :09:26.regular feeding by a man, nhcknamed Swan Man, is making the birds
:09:27. > :09:29.congregate in large numbers on the River Avon, putting off rivdr users
:09:30. > :09:32.and frightening other animals. Janine Jansen reports.
:09:33. > :09:38.The tide was rising and timd was running out. It took four hours to
:09:39. > :09:41.get this horse out of the mtd. He had been terrified by swans on the
:09:42. > :09:46.River Avon here near Bigburx. Thankfully, he survived. But horse
:09:47. > :09:52.rider, Susie Cullen, broke her hand in the accident. She said hdr horse
:09:53. > :09:55.was frightened by swans. In all the 26 years that I've been down here
:09:56. > :09:58.and been riding down here, the swans normally keep themselves to
:09:59. > :10:02.themselves. But over the last few years, the behaviour of the swans
:10:03. > :10:06.has changed. So they saw me there. They turned to come to me thinking
:10:07. > :10:09.they were probably going to get some food. Three swans stood up `nd did
:10:10. > :10:13.just a territorial flap. And I do not blame the swans. But I do think
:10:14. > :10:16.their behaviour has changed due to excessive feeding down the dstuary.
:10:17. > :10:22.Richard Crayfer is known as the Swan Man. He feeds the birds every day.
:10:23. > :10:26.He wouldn't do an interview for Spotlight. But he told me the swans
:10:27. > :10:30.did not frighten the horse. It could have been stung by a wasp. The
:10:31. > :10:34.parish council is now taking action. It is putting up signs asking people
:10:35. > :10:37.not to feed the birds. We h`ve received, over the last couple of
:10:38. > :10:40.years, quite a few complaints complaining generally that they have
:10:41. > :10:44.been disturbed by the swans or the man that feeds the swans. Hd tends
:10:45. > :10:48.to try and deter river and road users from going anywhere ndar his
:10:49. > :10:55.charges. Many walkers in thd area are concerned. It is one thhng to
:10:56. > :10:59.feed them casually. But to lake it a regular feeding point, which is what
:11:00. > :11:04.appears to be happening, I think he is going to have quite serious
:11:05. > :11:07.consequences in all sorts of ways. The RSPB says, with or without
:11:08. > :11:13.feeding, swans can be aggressive at this time of year. But Susid says
:11:14. > :11:22.she will not be going near the swans again. And she is not the only one.
:11:23. > :11:29.Local bands will take to thd stage tonight in a free open air pop
:11:30. > :11:32.concert. Last night, music fans tuned in to watch bands including
:11:33. > :11:35.the Kaiser Chiefs perform on the specially erected stage on Plymouth
:11:36. > :11:38.Hoe. Plymouth City Council, which is supporting the gig, says tens of
:11:39. > :11:49.thousands of people are also expected this evening.
:11:50. > :11:54.In just a moment, we'll meet the latest additions to the beaver
:11:55. > :11:57.family on the River otter. @lso still to come in Spotlight
:11:58. > :12:01.tonight... Camilla puts somd fizz into the final day of the Royal
:12:02. > :12:05.visit to the region. Everyone ready to go?
:12:06. > :12:08.And as the Royal Marines prdpare to celebrate their 350th annivdrsary,
:12:09. > :12:13.could these be the servicemdn and women of the future?
:12:14. > :12:16.With just a week to go before the opening ceremony of the Comlonwealth
:12:17. > :12:19.Games, one Devon competitor has been back in her home town of Kingsbridge
:12:20. > :12:23.before entering the fray. Ghselle Ansley is hoping to make her mark
:12:24. > :12:27.playing hockey for England. And as Spotlight's Dave Gibbins reports,
:12:28. > :12:34.she has just one aim in Glasgow Giselle Ansley is back wherd it all
:12:35. > :12:39.started for her. She is a former student at Kingsbridge Commtnity
:12:40. > :12:42.College in South Devon. Gisdlle is spending a few days at home with her
:12:43. > :12:46.family, including younger brother Seb, who is an England Under`17
:12:47. > :12:50.player. Most of all, Giselld does not forget her roots. Well, I will
:12:51. > :12:56.always regard Kingsbridge and Devon as my main home, definitely. I carry
:12:57. > :13:00.a Devon flag around. I've got a Devon flag on my car. You know, that
:13:01. > :13:04.is always my main home. But obviously, I train up at Bisham and
:13:05. > :13:10.I do have a place up there `s well. I train from there. I say I train
:13:11. > :13:14.from there and I live here. Club hockey, I would say, was my biggest
:13:15. > :13:20.avenue through. I played at Plymouth. And I played therd in the
:13:21. > :13:24.ladies first team. I did thd junior stuff through there. And I think
:13:25. > :13:28.that they gave me the biggest grounding and foundation to move on.
:13:29. > :13:33.So yeah, the pathway is long. But you get there eventually! She was
:13:34. > :13:37.omitted from the England sqtad, which performed disappointingly in
:13:38. > :13:41.June's World Cup. But the 22`year`old is back in the fold and
:13:42. > :13:44.helped them win the London Cup last weekend. So has Giselle got a point
:13:45. > :13:51.to prove in the forthcoming Commonwealth Games? As a te`m, we've
:13:52. > :13:54.got a point to prove. And I think everyone individually has a point to
:13:55. > :13:58.prove after the World Cup experience. So definitely, H do
:13:59. > :14:02.think I do. It is the biggest thing I will have been to. To plax for a
:14:03. > :14:10.Commonwealth gold medal, wh`t more can you ask for, to be honest?
:14:11. > :14:12.Well, the Commonwealth Games starts in earnest for Giselle next
:14:13. > :14:15.Thursday, with England's first match against Wales. Followed by Lalaysia,
:14:16. > :14:21.then the favourites Australha. Then the hosts Scotland, in a kex group
:14:22. > :14:25.game. It could well be the decider. The question is, will Giselle then
:14:26. > :14:32.be playing for a bronze med`l place or a gold medal? We sincerely hope
:14:33. > :14:36.it is the latter. We will keep our fingers crossed and
:14:37. > :14:40.let you know how she gets on. The Duke and Duchess of Cornwall have
:14:41. > :14:45.spent their third and final day of touring the region indulging in
:14:46. > :14:50.their favourite passions. Prince Charles went to a housing
:14:51. > :14:56.development and the Duchess spent part of the day seeing how wine is
:14:57. > :15:01.made. It is not everyday that you get to
:15:02. > :15:06.prepare food for a prince and Duchess for the unemployed trainees
:15:07. > :15:10.at this restaurant, and visht from the Royal Highness is was
:15:11. > :15:14.recognition for hard work. @fter spending some time on the bdach the
:15:15. > :15:20.royal couple went their sep`rate ways, Prince Charles took great
:15:21. > :15:27.interest in one of his own housing developments. He caused quite a stir
:15:28. > :15:32.with residence and work men. I never in my wildest dreams imagindd him
:15:33. > :15:38.coming up and speaking to md and shaking my hand. I did not know what
:15:39. > :15:43.to do, the etiquette or anything. He even went into some houses. Signed
:15:44. > :15:51.but I wish I knew he was coling I would have cleaned the windows.
:15:52. > :15:58.Really lovely, so excited! The site of 174 homes represents vishon for
:15:59. > :16:04.new development, which will see over 4000 homes built around herd over
:16:05. > :16:08.the next 40 years. Inspired by the Prince, the really important thing
:16:09. > :16:12.is using local materials and craftsmen. Up the road, the Duchess
:16:13. > :16:21.of Cornwall demonstrated grdat knowledge of the wine industry. To
:16:22. > :16:28.see this wine everywhere, it makes me feel proud. Her father w`s wine
:16:29. > :16:32.merchant and she knows a lot, has opinions on wines and where they
:16:33. > :16:42.should be made. Meanwhile, `ll smiles back in Newquay. I m`naged to
:16:43. > :16:48.get a selfie! I did not know if I was asking for too much, but happy
:16:49. > :16:54.with that. And there always has to be a selfie! Absolutely.
:16:55. > :16:58.The beavers which have been living on the River Otter in East Devon
:16:59. > :17:01.have given birth to at least three kits. The animals have been filmed
:17:02. > :17:04.near Ottery St Mary. But thdir arrival on the river is an dxtra
:17:05. > :17:08.problem for DEFRA, which has said it's hoping to capture the `nimals
:17:09. > :17:10.to discover if they may be carrying a disease harmful to humans. Our
:17:11. > :17:13.Environment Correspondent Adrian Campbell reports nobody knows how
:17:14. > :17:17.many beavers are living on the River Otter, but their numbers appear to
:17:18. > :17:21.be growing, new video filmed recently by Tom Buckley, a retired
:17:22. > :17:27.environmental scientists, she was a mother with young, and you can
:17:28. > :17:31.clearly see the size of the young, next to the adult.
:17:32. > :17:35.So overjoyed when I saw a mother beaver definitely nursing b`bies.
:17:36. > :17:42.And then shortly after, I s`w the baby, long and actually intdract.
:17:43. > :17:48.That was beautiful. It was so amazing. The beavers have bden a
:17:49. > :17:52.topic of discussion locally and experts from DEFRA have been in the
:17:53. > :17:56.area recently because they `re concerned about the possibility the
:17:57. > :18:00.animals may carry a disease which can be passed to humans through a
:18:01. > :18:07.tapeworm and they have been talking to landowners. We have crossed the
:18:08. > :18:13.disease risk of the older ones `` the younger ones, they are not an
:18:14. > :18:17.issue being recently born. But the older ones we have to rule out
:18:18. > :18:23.disease risk. But if they are clean, they can go back on the
:18:24. > :18:27.river. A spokesman from DEFRA said they are taking precautionary action
:18:28. > :18:31.by testing, and will be dond with wealthier in mind, and they say
:18:32. > :18:34.beavers have been absent on England for centuries and it is not clear we
:18:35. > :18:41.have these ones have come from and significantly it says would wait
:18:42. > :18:45.until the children are of a suitable age before catching them. Some said
:18:46. > :18:52.the beavers could be good for the river. They are aquatic enghneers,
:18:53. > :18:59.fantastic for biodiversity, and they will also dam certain areas which
:19:00. > :19:04.can help alleviate floods, `lso filtering water. This new vhdeo
:19:05. > :19:12.shows there is not just one or two macro kits, but three, and they may
:19:13. > :19:17.have allayed DEFRA plans to capture the animals. They are still deciding
:19:18. > :19:23.we are the animals could be rehomed, but no decision taken yet.
:19:24. > :19:27.Such charming images. The South West has a long and proud
:19:28. > :19:30.association with the Royal Larine Commandos, with various basds and
:19:31. > :19:33.units in the region. Well, the Royal Marines are celebrating thehr 3 0th
:19:34. > :19:36.anniversary. And tonight is the opening night of RM350 South West
:19:37. > :19:39.Proms, a series of musical dvents at Plymouth Albion's ground. Otr
:19:40. > :19:46.reporter John Henderson is there for us now.
:19:47. > :19:50.Yes, I am on the pitch at the Plymouth Albion ground, as xou
:19:51. > :19:53.mentioned, normally home to rugby football, but not much playdd
:19:54. > :20:00.tonight, maybe some cheering from the stand, the first four special
:20:01. > :20:06.nights, lots of music all to do with calibrating the Royal Marinds' 00
:20:07. > :20:09.years and their close assochation with the Southwest and Plymouth in
:20:10. > :20:14.particular. Battle hardened bootnecks. Royal
:20:15. > :20:19.Marines in the thick of it hn Afghanistan. Commandos have fought
:20:20. > :20:27.in countless battles. But when the fighting stops, they return home.
:20:28. > :20:31.And, for many, that is Plymouth The historic association with the city
:20:32. > :20:35.began when the corel was crdated in 1664. A force to equal the Navy and
:20:36. > :20:47.the Army. 1200 soldiers werd trained. And dispatched amongst His
:20:48. > :20:50.Majesty's fleet, the majority of which came here to Plymouth. So for
:20:51. > :20:54.350 years, Plymouth has been the home. And in recent centurids, the
:20:55. > :20:57.historic ancestral home of the Royal Marines. And it is a relationship we
:20:58. > :21:02.are extremely proud of. It hs not just Plymouth. Three quarters of the
:21:03. > :21:10.Royal Marines commandos and their associated staff are based hn the
:21:11. > :21:14.South West. There is more at Stonehouse barracks. A spechal place
:21:15. > :21:19.in command of history. One shared today with pupils from a local
:21:20. > :21:22.primary school. They are on a visit to the barracks purpose`built for
:21:23. > :21:30.the Marines 230 years ago. We were at war with France at the thme. So
:21:31. > :21:34.we used a lot of French prisoners that were captured in war, brought
:21:35. > :21:37.them to here. And we made them build this. And inside, history is
:21:38. > :21:43.everywhere. From clocks belonging to Royal Marines that fought in the
:21:44. > :21:48.Crimea War. To paintings of the Duke of Clarence with rather special
:21:49. > :21:51.framing. The frame itself w`s fashioned and made from the timbers
:21:52. > :21:54.taken from HMS Victory after the Battle of Trafalgar in 1805. So the
:21:55. > :22:00.painting, the frame itself, is history, British history. Stonehouse
:22:01. > :22:04.Barracks has changed over the years. But it still attracts sea soldiers
:22:05. > :22:09.from all over the country. This is like their home. The barracks in
:22:10. > :22:14.Stonehouse are of historical home for the Royal Marines. So they are
:22:15. > :22:21.drawn to this place. Over the course of 350 years, they have had many
:22:22. > :22:27.aliases, starting from the `dmirals regiment. A force that has never
:22:28. > :22:34.faltered and always returned to their Southwest routes.
:22:35. > :22:39.There is a Plymouth singer on stage at the moment. And we will have a
:22:40. > :22:45.performance from the military wives. What else can we expect? It is the
:22:46. > :22:55.massed bands of the Royal M`rines, two West country bands. Joining
:22:56. > :23:00.forces for a celebratory concert to mark the 350th birthday of the Royal
:23:01. > :23:06.Marines. How important is that birthday and its link with the
:23:07. > :23:09.region? Very potent, a numbdr of events throughout the country and
:23:10. > :23:19.the year. But macro very important. Plymouth has been is the hole of the
:23:20. > :23:26.Royal Marines from centuries and we take that seriously. And thhs is the
:23:27. > :23:31.first night, and a big crowd already. Still looking for lore
:23:32. > :23:36.people, tickets still avail`ble it is a party and everyone is hnvited.
:23:37. > :23:43.Thursday, Friday and Saturd`y and it will be a great show! Any special
:23:44. > :23:49.surprises question might and you look good on your outfit. That is
:23:50. > :24:01.very kind. We have fireworks, fly pasts, all the things you would
:24:02. > :24:04.expect to see. The drums, solo performances, amongst others. We
:24:05. > :24:10.will leave it there. We will let the music continue.
:24:11. > :24:11.That will be a fabulous serhes of concerts. Let us see what the
:24:12. > :24:20.weather will be like. It should be good tonight, but
:24:21. > :24:26.different the next few nights. Thunder in the forecast. It is still
:24:27. > :24:35.uncertain how heavy the thunder and showers will be. Tomorrow vdry warm
:24:36. > :24:40.and humid. The air coming from the south and with that thunderstorms,
:24:41. > :24:44.maybe early evening and overnight. This does not look different from
:24:45. > :24:49.the last couple of days, cloud covering much of southern Britain,
:24:50. > :24:53.giving some light rain, but cloud from the west coast of Spain and
:24:54. > :24:58.Portugal developing into low pressure, not showing on thd chart,
:24:59. > :25:10.by the time of the middle of tomorrow, it is into the B of this
:25:11. > :25:18.gay, then a line of thunderstorms `` into the Bay of Biscay, then a line
:25:19. > :25:22.of thunderstorms, and then ht is mist the tonight. Overnight
:25:23. > :25:27.temperatures no lower than 05 or 16 degrees, some drizzle coming out of
:25:28. > :25:34.the cloud, particularly across North Devon, but fading away overnight by
:25:35. > :25:39.morning, largely dry but very misty conditions, low cloud as well. As
:25:40. > :25:43.you midfield, starting the day already at temperatures of 05,
:25:44. > :25:50.possibly 17 degrees, very qtickly that warmth gathering as thd day
:25:51. > :25:56.progresses. Misty and grey `t first sunshine breaking through, `nd as
:25:57. > :26:00.they get the sunshine, highdr temperatures. Across Northern Devon
:26:01. > :26:07.and into Somerset and Dorset, temperatures close to 28 degrees. If
:26:08. > :26:11.we get that warm, it will e`sily be the highest temperature of the year
:26:12. > :26:18.so far. Even along the south coast, temperatures of 21, 22 degrdes, and
:26:19. > :26:21.easterly breeze keeping temperatures down and the threat of thosd
:26:22. > :26:25.thunderstorms into the evenhng, coming up by the end of the
:26:26. > :26:30.afternoon and into early evdning. Not everywhere are seeing thunder or
:26:31. > :26:34.lightning, but certainly possible and travelling northwards through
:26:35. > :26:35.tomorrow night. For the Islds of Scilly, mainly dry with showers
:26:36. > :26:57.later. The times of high water. . And it will be clean for surfers.
:26:58. > :27:03.And for the coastal waters, the wind is easterly, not particularly
:27:04. > :27:08.strong, but picking up four or five into the afternoon and evenhng,
:27:09. > :27:14.fair, with the risk of thosd thunderstorms that the `` ddveloping
:27:15. > :27:19.overnight and poor visibility because of that. The chance of heavy
:27:20. > :27:27.showers across Easter and Dorset and Somerset on Saturday. Night`time
:27:28. > :27:33.thunderstorms possible overnight Saturday. Showers on both S`turday
:27:34. > :27:38.and Sunday. As for the heatwave For us, probably just one day.
:27:39. > :27:43.Thank you. You might want to think about taking a number relathve few
:27:44. > :27:46.are going to that concept tomorrow. That is all for us. Do enjox the
:27:47. > :27:48.rest of you leaving.
