Tonight, an offensive gesture, a councillor and a call | :00:00. | :00:07. | |
An individual has performed a Nazi salute in a council | :00:08. | :00:11. | |
And that individual should not be in a job any more. | :00:12. | :00:18. | |
So, should this Plymouth City Councillor be stripped of his job? | :00:19. | :00:21. | |
As Labour's Johnny Morris is suspended, we'll hear his defence. | :00:22. | :00:26. | |
Also tonight: How lunch at a Cornish pub turned to tragedy. | :00:27. | :00:32. | |
A court has heard how a 71-year-old woman died from food poisoning | :00:33. | :00:35. | |
Don't harm our harbourside - the regeneration plans protestors | :00:36. | :00:41. | |
And a sure sign of spring - the magnificent magnolias heralding | :00:42. | :00:49. | |
a change in the seasons despite today's wintry showers. | :00:50. | :01:11. | |
A councillor from Plymouth has been suspended after making a Nazi | :01:12. | :01:14. | |
Johnny Morris from the Labour Party made the gesture during a debate | :01:15. | :01:19. | |
There are now calls for for him to resign. | :01:20. | :01:25. | |
He made the salute during a heated exchange between both parties | :01:26. | :01:28. | |
Somebody does a salute like that in this chamber... | :01:29. | :01:44. | |
Councillor Morris, could you please apologise. | :01:45. | :01:57. | |
Well, Councillor Morris has since told Spotlight | :01:58. | :02:11. | |
about the debate being closed down, and let that anger get the better | :02:12. | :02:15. | |
of him with what he described as an "inappropriate | :02:16. | :02:17. | |
With reaction from Westminster, let's cross to our political | :02:18. | :02:20. | |
Well, calls here at Westminster from one Plymouth MP for Councillor | :02:21. | :02:33. | |
Morris to stand down, but before we hear from him, he is Councillor | :02:34. | :02:36. | |
Tudor Evans, the leader of the Labour group on the City Council. | :02:37. | :02:41. | |
Straightaway after the meeting, Councillor Morris was | :02:42. | :02:42. | |
immediately suspended subject to an investigation. | :02:43. | :02:44. | |
So we've acted as swiftly and as firmly as we possibly can, | :02:45. | :02:47. | |
because we take this sort of thing very seriously. | :02:48. | :02:57. | |
I'm joined now by Johnny Mercer, the MP for Plymouth more view. We have | :02:58. | :03:08. | |
heard Councillor Tudor Evans saying that Councillor Morris has been | :03:09. | :03:11. | |
suspended, there will be an investigation, they have acted | :03:12. | :03:14. | |
firmly. You don't think that's enough? I'm not entirely sure what | :03:15. | :03:19. | |
there is to investigate. This individual has done a Nazi salute in | :03:20. | :03:23. | |
the let the chamber during the middle of the Council meeting. It is | :03:24. | :03:28. | |
appalling. And I'm ashamed this has happened in Plymouth. When this | :03:29. | :03:31. | |
happens, you need strong leadership and people to get out there and say, | :03:32. | :03:35. | |
this is unacceptable, he doesn't represent what we stand for in the | :03:36. | :03:39. | |
Labour Party, but that hasn't been forthcoming today. I would just like | :03:40. | :03:43. | |
to get this dealt with and move on. It would be the normal procedure in | :03:44. | :03:47. | |
these instances to investigate this kind of thing, wouldn't it? I'm not | :03:48. | :03:52. | |
sure what needs to be investigated. There is a very clear action deemed | :03:53. | :03:56. | |
to have taken place, seen by everybody, and now seen across the | :03:57. | :04:03. | |
country. This is now todaypeople's view of Plymouth. People are | :04:04. | :04:10. | |
trivialising what happens in a democratically elected chamber, and | :04:11. | :04:13. | |
what I was looking for was strong leadership from the Labour Party in | :04:14. | :04:16. | |
Plymouth, and that is not what we have had. Councillor Evans did | :04:17. | :04:20. | |
reflect on the fact that this does mean that instead of being in the | :04:21. | :04:23. | |
position to criticise the Conservative and Ukip budget that | :04:24. | :04:27. | |
Plymouth City Council passed yesterday, he is here instead | :04:28. | :04:29. | |
defending one of his own councillors. | :04:30. | :04:35. | |
Thank you. A manager and the owners | :04:36. | :04:38. | |
of a Cornish pub have been fined after a woman died | :04:39. | :04:41. | |
from food poisoning. Christine Morgan, who was 71, | :04:42. | :04:43. | |
ordered a roast lunch at the Clock She fell ill and died on the way | :04:44. | :04:46. | |
to hospital the following night. John Danks has been | :04:47. | :04:50. | |
at Truro Crown Court. Christine Morgan had gone | :04:51. | :04:53. | |
to the Clock and Key pub with her husband and cousin | :04:54. | :04:55. | |
on the 11th of August 2015. She ate roast lamb, but soon after, | :04:56. | :04:58. | |
she began to feel unwell. The court heard that Mrs Morgan | :04:59. | :05:01. | |
suffered vomiting and diarrhoea. Her condition worsened, | :05:02. | :05:03. | |
and she died in an ambulance en We were able to secure a quantity | :05:04. | :05:06. | |
of lamb that was served to the party That was then subsequently sent off | :05:07. | :05:14. | |
to Public Health England They isolated a type of food | :05:15. | :05:19. | |
poisoning called Clostridium Diane Burrow from Bude | :05:20. | :05:24. | |
who was the pub's kitchen manager at the time, | :05:25. | :05:30. | |
was fined ?750 after pleading guilty to breaching food | :05:31. | :05:34. | |
hygiene regulations. The pub owners, Lake Inns | :05:35. | :05:36. | |
and Leisure Limited, was handed down fines and costs | :05:37. | :05:39. | |
totalling more than ?40,000. In this case, there | :05:40. | :05:43. | |
were multiple failures, possible failure to cook properly, | :05:44. | :05:45. | |
failure to cool properly, Judge Simon Carr said | :05:46. | :05:47. | |
there were systems in place, probably in a brightly-coloured file | :05:48. | :05:56. | |
on a shelf in the kitchen, Food safety was considered, he said, | :05:57. | :05:59. | |
but not sufficiently emphasised. There was simply no supervision | :06:00. | :06:04. | |
and control for food handling. We encourage food business operators | :06:05. | :06:09. | |
to always be vigilant. Whilst that risk exists, we say, | :06:10. | :06:12. | |
when our inspectors come round, we're here to help you, | :06:13. | :06:14. | |
we're here to give you advice. Listen to that advice, | :06:15. | :06:18. | |
act on that advice, and these sorts John Danks, BBC Spotlight, | :06:19. | :06:22. | |
at Truro Crown Court. Today a coroner concluded 30 Britons | :06:23. | :06:34. | |
who died in a terror attack at a Tunisian beach resort | :06:35. | :06:37. | |
were "unlawfully killed". One of them was Stephen Mellor | :06:38. | :06:39. | |
from Bodmin, who died protecting his wife Cheryl | :06:40. | :06:41. | |
when an Islamist gunman opened fire The 59-year-old was shot | :06:42. | :06:44. | |
in the chest and abdomen. Cheryl, who was shot | :06:45. | :06:52. | |
in the leg and wrist, She told the inquest | :06:53. | :06:54. | |
her husband was a hero. Today, one survivor spoke | :06:55. | :06:57. | |
of going back into the line of fire to help Cheryl lying injured | :06:58. | :07:00. | |
on the beach. As I hit the sand, I literally fell | :07:01. | :07:18. | |
into a lady. She had severe gunshot wounds. I dressed her hand and | :07:19. | :07:23. | |
covered her wrist with the scarf I pulled them from the beach umbrella. | :07:24. | :07:28. | |
She then told me she had pain in her leg, and I noticed she had a hole in | :07:29. | :07:32. | |
her leg, so I got a beach towel and wrapped it around her leg to | :07:33. | :07:35. | |
compress the injury and stop the bleeding. Alan Pembroke talking | :07:36. | :07:42. | |
about helping Cheryl Mellor after that deadly attack in Tunisia. | :07:43. | :07:44. | |
Well, Emily Unia has been following the latest developments | :07:45. | :07:46. | |
The coroner this morning was extremely correct to -- critical of | :07:47. | :07:57. | |
the police response in Tunisia to the attack. He said it was at best | :07:58. | :08:01. | |
shambolic and at worst cowardly. He said they could and should have been | :08:02. | :08:09. | |
more effective. He also ruled out neglect on behalf of TUI, the travel | :08:10. | :08:15. | |
operator. He said the simple but tragic truth was that a gunman armed | :08:16. | :08:19. | |
with firearms and grenades went to the hotel that a intent on killing | :08:20. | :08:23. | |
as many people as he could. The families of 22 of the victims have | :08:24. | :08:26. | |
said that they will be selling TUI, the travel company, for compensation | :08:27. | :08:32. | |
and the injuries and deaths of their loved ones. TUI has said it is | :08:33. | :08:36. | |
wholly erroneous that it was neglectful of its customers. There | :08:37. | :08:41. | |
is insufficient evidence that it did not look after them and that it | :08:42. | :08:44. | |
failed in its duty to care for them, but we will have to wait and see | :08:45. | :08:49. | |
what the outcome of those compensation claims are. | :08:50. | :08:49. | |
Emily, thank you. Campaigners are insisting | :08:50. | :08:56. | |
they'll appeal the approval of controversial plans for a hotel, | :08:57. | :08:58. | |
flats and a car park The scheme features an 11-storey | :08:59. | :09:00. | |
building on the harbour-side which supporters say will help | :09:01. | :09:05. | |
regenerate the town. Protestors claim it will | :09:06. | :09:07. | |
ruin the waterfront. Our South Devon reporter John Ayres | :09:08. | :09:08. | |
was at the meeting last night and joins us now | :09:09. | :09:11. | |
from the harbour-side, John. Yes, it is one of the most difficult | :09:12. | :09:20. | |
planning decisions in Torbay for many years. This is Torquay | :09:21. | :09:24. | |
harbour-side. The plan is to put an 11th story building over there. It | :09:25. | :09:28. | |
will completely change the skyline, which many people are against. But | :09:29. | :09:33. | |
the planners, the planning committee had to weigh that up against the | :09:34. | :09:37. | |
good it would create in terms of jobs and regeneration. | :09:38. | :09:49. | |
Historic England have said that if this development goes ahead, | :09:50. | :09:51. | |
then there is a very high chance that we'll lose that | :09:52. | :09:54. | |
conservation area designation because of the threat and the harm | :09:55. | :09:56. | |
that this development will cause to the harbour area. | :09:57. | :10:03. | |
We do not feel this is sympathetic, and in fact it's not like we don't | :10:04. | :10:06. | |
We have architects and people on our side who have come up | :10:07. | :10:11. | |
with alternative proposals which show that the development can | :10:12. | :10:13. | |
The scheme is controversial because it involves an 11 story | :10:14. | :10:20. | |
building on a prime spot on the harbour-side. | :10:21. | :10:21. | |
This will be made up of flats and a 4-star hotel. | :10:22. | :10:29. | |
Carey Green, a public space, will be used as a car park. | :10:30. | :10:32. | |
The Edwardian pavilion which is currently closed will be | :10:33. | :10:34. | |
brought back to life and used as the front of the hotel. | :10:35. | :10:37. | |
Last night, the development was given the go-ahead. | :10:38. | :10:39. | |
All those in favour, please show your hands. | :10:40. | :10:41. | |
The harbour hotels group has stuck at this | :10:42. | :10:50. | |
for a number of years, tweaking their plans | :10:51. | :10:52. | |
Torquay is a good strategic place for a good quality hotel. | :10:53. | :10:56. | |
There are not many sites in the country with a fantastic | :10:57. | :10:58. | |
pavilion building that you can get your hands on and turn it | :10:59. | :11:01. | |
So that genuinely was the sticking point. | :11:02. | :11:07. | |
There just literally are not that many races like this in the country, | :11:08. | :11:09. | |
Normally, a decision like this in a conservation area would be no, | :11:10. | :11:14. | |
but it can be approved if is significant public benefit. | :11:15. | :11:18. | |
In this case, regeneration, new jobs and an economic boost. | :11:19. | :11:22. | |
The campaigners insist it won't be the case, | :11:23. | :11:24. | |
Of course, one of the difficulties is, what is the alternative when you | :11:25. | :11:39. | |
have a pavilion over there that is decaying. The former mayor said last | :11:40. | :11:45. | |
night to the planning committee that to turn it down would be | :11:46. | :11:48. | |
catastrophic, because it would send out a message to all the other | :11:49. | :11:51. | |
developers out there that Torbay wouldn't be open to business. | :11:52. | :11:53. | |
Thank you, John. On to other news from | :11:54. | :11:56. | |
around the region. An inquest in Truro has heard how | :11:57. | :12:01. | |
a man drowned while attempting to rescue his partner's 12-year-old | :12:02. | :12:04. | |
daughter during a scuba 43-year-old Paul Dold | :12:05. | :12:06. | |
from West Sussex died off A verdict of Accidental | :12:07. | :12:09. | |
Death was recorded. ?10.4 million worth | :12:10. | :12:15. | |
of investment in Plymouth's waterfront could be at stake | :12:16. | :12:17. | |
according to The Waterfront Business It says it needs a majority | :12:18. | :12:19. | |
of the area's businesses to vote to keep the partnership | :12:20. | :12:28. | |
for another five years. A treatment centre in Bodmin | :12:29. | :12:32. | |
specialising in non-emergency day surgeries will close | :12:33. | :12:35. | |
at the end of March. Ramsay Healthcare says the contract | :12:36. | :12:39. | |
is ending as they can't come to an agreement | :12:40. | :12:41. | |
with Kernow Clinical With mobile phones constantly | :12:42. | :12:43. | |
pinging in houses full of gadgets, you might think you have an allergy | :12:44. | :12:49. | |
to modern-day life. But how far would you | :12:50. | :12:51. | |
go to escape it all? One woman from North Devon says | :12:52. | :12:54. | |
everything about a modern home - from chemicals to radio waves - | :12:55. | :12:56. | |
were making her ill, so she and her husband have gone | :12:57. | :12:59. | |
back to nature and built their home in the Tarka Valley | :13:00. | :13:02. | |
from mud and straw. But as Johnny Morris reports, | :13:03. | :13:05. | |
they're now having to take it down because they don't have | :13:06. | :13:08. | |
planing permission. You have to look closely, | :13:09. | :13:11. | |
but there are people Being plugged into a | :13:12. | :13:13. | |
virtual reality machine, We're collecting water, | :13:14. | :13:21. | |
we're chopping wood, Kate and Alan may be hidden | :13:22. | :13:30. | |
from view, but they are still You can't, of course, | :13:31. | :13:36. | |
just put up a house where you want. This is our nest, this | :13:37. | :13:41. | |
is our everything. We've sculpted it with our | :13:42. | :13:43. | |
hands from the soil. If it is the good life, | :13:44. | :13:46. | |
it doesn't come easy. They have to keep on topping up | :13:47. | :13:49. | |
the mud used to build their home. But for Kate, it's a much better | :13:50. | :13:52. | |
life than she had before. She goes as far as saying | :13:53. | :13:55. | |
that modern day living I think it was the water | :13:56. | :13:57. | |
and the electricity and the Wi-Fi and the paint on the walls and, | :13:58. | :14:06. | |
you know, a build-up. I didn't realise how ill | :14:07. | :14:09. | |
I was until we moved here, There are now many medical | :14:10. | :14:14. | |
conditions, so is this one of them? Can you be intolerant | :14:15. | :14:24. | |
to the modern day? Some doctors believe you can, | :14:25. | :14:25. | |
but the NHS doesn't Multiple chemical sensitivity | :14:26. | :14:28. | |
is a condition where the body's immune and detoxification | :14:29. | :14:37. | |
pathways become overloaded. We've got people that simply find | :14:38. | :14:38. | |
they have an allergic reaction to bleach and try to avoid | :14:39. | :14:45. | |
perfumes and traffic fumes. Living in an ordinary house, | :14:46. | :14:47. | |
especially a new build or a house that has just been decorated | :14:48. | :14:50. | |
furnished, it becomes a big problem. But it's not the medical landscape | :14:51. | :14:52. | |
which is important here. And the local authority says they've | :14:53. | :14:55. | |
got to abide by the law. Kate points to examples in Wales | :14:56. | :15:15. | |
where the One Planet planning laws can allow low impact | :15:16. | :15:18. | |
homes like there's. Even if we lose everything here, | :15:19. | :15:19. | |
I feel it's really important for people like us to be able | :15:20. | :15:22. | |
to live on their own land sustainably without | :15:23. | :15:25. | |
creating any damage. But having lost all their appeals, | :15:26. | :15:29. | |
the couple now have Jonathan Morris, BBC Spotlight, | :15:30. | :15:31. | |
River Cross Meadow. And if you'd like to comment on this | :15:32. | :15:39. | |
or any other story tonight you can join the debate on e-mail, | :15:40. | :15:42. | |
Twitter and Facebook. Coming up: Shrove Tuesday has been | :15:43. | :15:47. | |
marked across the South West, but it didn't go according to plan | :15:48. | :15:50. | |
for our reporter on HMS Albion. And we're at another shrove Tuesday | :15:51. | :15:53. | |
tradition where they're Have you got enough paper they're? | :15:54. | :16:02. | |
I've got scripts everywhere here! All of our main football sides | :16:03. | :16:19. | |
are in action this evening - Second in League 2 Plymouth | :16:20. | :16:22. | |
are at home to Notts County whose fans will be given a free pasty | :16:23. | :16:27. | |
on arrival at Home Park. Exeter are away at Crawley | :16:28. | :16:29. | |
and Yeovil are at home to Mansfield. In the National League, | :16:30. | :16:33. | |
Torquay are away to Solihull Moors. I'm assuming this is me, because my | :16:34. | :16:43. | |
script is everywhere! I will carry on. | :16:44. | :16:47. | |
You may be watching tonight's programme in the midst of pancake | :16:48. | :16:55. | |
making, as it is Shrove Tuesday. Spare a thought for the ship crew | :16:56. | :16:59. | |
making pancakes on the water. You might not expect pancake day to | :17:00. | :17:13. | |
be a top priority on the HMS Albion. Chefs Rebecca and Abigail have | :17:14. | :17:16. | |
helped make around 600 pancakes today already. We are just doing | :17:17. | :17:21. | |
batch cooking, so keep them coming, put them out, that's it. Is pancake | :17:22. | :17:26. | |
day a big thing in the Navy? Do they all expect pancakes on Shrove | :17:27. | :17:31. | |
Tuesday? It is more for the morale, if you are not at home, this keeps | :17:32. | :17:36. | |
morale up. We have pancakes for them. | :17:37. | :17:41. | |
The girls have been helping to make hundreds of pancakes, so I thought | :17:42. | :17:45. | |
it would only be fair if I had a go at making pancakes naval style. | :17:46. | :17:49. | |
Let's see if I can push it around a bit. When I make these at home, the | :17:50. | :17:54. | |
first one always turns out to be a disaster. Now for the moment of | :17:55. | :17:57. | |
truth, this is where I try tossing it. Are you ready? Are you with me? | :17:58. | :18:05. | |
Oh, it's stuck to the pan! It won't come off. Luckily, the proof of the | :18:06. | :18:10. | |
pancake isn't in the tossing, but beating. The girls can do it much | :18:11. | :18:16. | |
better than me. Now for the best bit, time to tuck in, though I | :18:17. | :18:19. | |
decided not to include my burnt offering. It all looks delicious, | :18:20. | :18:24. | |
and is also serving an important purpose. Just to keep everyone, | :18:25. | :18:32. | |
family, keep them all close and tight, and keep the traditions | :18:33. | :18:36. | |
alive, really. And in case any of you were wondering what the crew's | :18:37. | :18:42. | |
favourite topping is,... Chocolate spread. Chocolate spread. This is | :18:43. | :18:48. | |
the one that is burned, but maybe we can hide it at the bottom. This is a | :18:49. | :18:55. | |
not very able seaman signing off for BBC Spotlight. | :18:56. | :19:01. | |
I wonder how many people have had the same problem, pancakes sticking | :19:02. | :19:04. | |
to the pan. I'm not going to her house for tea. And the tradition in, | :19:05. | :19:11. | |
is to hurl a silver ball down the streets, but the focus this morning | :19:12. | :19:16. | |
was mounting a lead replica of the silver ball on top of the town hall, | :19:17. | :19:20. | |
and inside is a time capsule provided by primary school. | :19:21. | :19:21. | |
Christine Butler reports. Making a lead replica of the silver | :19:22. | :19:32. | |
ball with the strong Cornish tradition. That includes molten | :19:33. | :19:39. | |
metal for the inscription, town and country, do your best. As I was | :19:40. | :19:44. | |
making it, I realised that it has this great big void inside that | :19:45. | :19:48. | |
would be ideal to put some kind of time capsule in it, so I thought | :19:49. | :19:51. | |
that would be an interesting thing for the school. And the school | :19:52. | :19:59. | |
couldn't get enough of it. How did you manage to make that out of | :20:00. | :20:05. | |
metal? A little bit of history stuck 45 feet in the air that will last | :20:06. | :20:09. | |
hundreds of years sparked imaginations. Now you can see inside | :20:10. | :20:15. | |
if I take it apart. What is the most exciting thing they would find in | :20:16. | :20:20. | |
there? What is invented now and how much technology has improved. The | :20:21. | :20:26. | |
money is good, because it's, they will have a king or queen, so they | :20:27. | :20:37. | |
will have that on the coin, and the notes will be different, the ?5 | :20:38. | :20:41. | |
notes. Last-minute touches are overseen by | :20:42. | :20:44. | |
both school and town councils. All eyes turn upwards as Tim sends the | :20:45. | :20:55. | |
bell turret in some pretty windy, hairy zinc conditions. Thankfully, | :20:56. | :21:00. | |
it all goes to plan. Just hours before, the real silver ball takes | :21:01. | :21:09. | |
centre stage at this age-old sport of the Shrove Tuesday hurl. | :21:10. | :21:10. | |
Christine Butler, BBC Spotlight. But despite the wintry showers some | :21:11. | :21:19. | |
of us endured today, spring has sprung - | :21:20. | :21:24. | |
or at least that's according And they say it's all because | :21:25. | :21:26. | |
the magnolia is in full bloom, and to prove it we have some | :21:27. | :21:30. | |
in the studio. We'll have a closer look at these | :21:31. | :21:32. | |
fabulous blooms in a minute, but first, Clare Woodling has been | :21:33. | :21:35. | |
to see the many different It's a new tradition | :21:36. | :21:38. | |
in an ancient setting. It's a link the owner | :21:39. | :21:46. | |
of Caerhays Castle was keen to show The 12 so-called great gardens | :21:47. | :21:51. | |
of Cornwall agree on the magnolia in bloom as signalling | :21:52. | :21:59. | |
the new season. We go out and we look at our biggest | :22:00. | :22:11. | |
and best early flowering magnolia, And when we have each got 50 flowers | :22:12. | :22:20. | |
out in bloom and looking Though the Magnolia campbellii | :22:21. | :22:30. | |
is the flower identified as marking the start of spring, | :22:31. | :22:36. | |
there are about 50 varieties Before the magnolia | :22:37. | :22:38. | |
is bloom, they are covered Furry and soft, these protect | :22:39. | :22:41. | |
the bud from frosts. They then fall away to reveal | :22:42. | :22:44. | |
the flower and its petals. Magnolias and spring is only | :22:45. | :22:52. | |
a recent association, made in the last five years | :22:53. | :22:54. | |
by the 12 great Gardens. But one designed to draw attention | :22:55. | :22:57. | |
to the colour and vibrancy of Cornwall at a time | :22:58. | :23:00. | |
when many of us are still wrapped In Cornwall, with all mild climate, | :23:01. | :23:02. | |
spring comes much earlier down here, and there is far more to see that | :23:03. | :23:06. | |
you would expect seen your garden. The Welsh may think | :23:07. | :23:10. | |
of their daffodils. And what we are really saying | :23:11. | :23:11. | |
upcountry tourists who come down here as garden visitors late | :23:12. | :23:15. | |
in the year, come earlier, In 2016, the magnolias bloomed | :23:16. | :23:18. | |
unusually early, but this year, they've been cautious, | :23:19. | :23:21. | |
as a hard frost can they've been cautious, as a hard | :23:22. | :23:24. | |
frost can turn the petals brown. Visit Cornwall said last year 20 ABC | :23:25. | :23:36. | |
to -- 28% of people coming to call what went to one of the main gardens | :23:37. | :23:41. | |
like the lost Gardens of Halligan. It is hoping that the blooming | :23:42. | :23:48. | |
magnolias will bring the tourist earlier in the year, and show people | :23:49. | :23:51. | |
there is more to the county than the attractions of summer at the | :23:52. | :23:53. | |
seaside. And thank you so much to Jamie, the | :23:54. | :24:01. | |
head gardener at Caerhays for giving us these fabulous blooms today, we | :24:02. | :24:06. | |
have five varieties here, but there are 450 types at the castle. They | :24:07. | :24:12. | |
are unbelievable, they don't look real, thank you very much for those. | :24:13. | :24:19. | |
The only thing I think about magnolias is that they get battered | :24:20. | :24:23. | |
out about a bit in the wind and the rain. And we have some to come, | :24:24. | :24:25. | |
don't we? We do, and what you can't see at | :24:26. | :24:33. | |
home is the incredible smell of these Flowers. We will continue to | :24:34. | :24:37. | |
have a little wintry nurse. Most of the showers have gone, a few I left | :24:38. | :24:44. | |
behind, quite a covering of snow in places this morning, and also over | :24:45. | :24:48. | |
the high ground of Dartmoor, this is a captain. A light dusting here, but | :24:49. | :24:54. | |
this was earlier today over Exmoor, where there was some snow and over | :24:55. | :25:00. | |
the really high ground of both Exmoor and Dartmoor, quite a bit of | :25:01. | :25:04. | |
snow fell through the night, and quite a covering first thing this | :25:05. | :25:07. | |
morning, but the sunshine has melted a lot of the snow that has fallen. | :25:08. | :25:13. | |
There won't be too many problems with ice overnight, the main problem | :25:14. | :25:16. | |
will be the fact that we will get some more persistent rain tomorrow. | :25:17. | :25:21. | |
Tomorrow is less windy at first, there will be patchy rain around, | :25:22. | :25:25. | |
sunny spells late in the day, but primarily for Cornwall. We have an | :25:26. | :25:31. | |
area of low pressure with lots of clouds swirling around, and we start | :25:32. | :25:36. | |
to lose that over the next 12 hours. You will notice also some more cloud | :25:37. | :25:41. | |
out to the west, developing into an area of low pressure that moves into | :25:42. | :25:45. | |
the English Channel around the day tomorrow, and behind it, pretty | :25:46. | :25:48. | |
lively wins which will pick up again towards the evening. As we move into | :25:49. | :25:53. | |
Thursday, there is a ridge of high pressure, so if you have anything to | :25:54. | :25:57. | |
do outside, Thursday is your day, because it will be very settled. All | :25:58. | :26:01. | |
change on Friday, another area of wind and rain. The line of showers | :26:02. | :26:07. | |
earlier today gave a little thunder and lightning, that has now moved to | :26:08. | :26:11. | |
northern France. Clear skies are what we will see overnight tonight, | :26:12. | :26:16. | |
so it will turn quite chilly. Whilst it is a predominantly dry story, an | :26:17. | :26:20. | |
isolated shower is possible at some point through the night. Clear skies | :26:21. | :26:24. | |
allowing the temperatures to drop as low as three Celsius. Coming up from | :26:25. | :26:31. | |
the south, a lot of cloud, and that will produce outbreaks of rain. It | :26:32. | :26:35. | |
will be patchy, particularly across northern parts of Dorset, the North | :26:36. | :26:40. | |
of Somerset. Hill fog developing. Then the clearance comes late in the | :26:41. | :26:44. | |
day, some late sunshine across more western parts of Cornwall. At the | :26:45. | :26:52. | |
same time, it becomes pretty windy. Seven, eight, nine Celsius the best | :26:53. | :26:56. | |
temperatures tomorrow. By the end of the day, it becomes windy, and for | :26:57. | :27:01. | |
the Isles of Scilly, the rain clears, bright and increasingly | :27:02. | :27:01. | |
windy. Times of high water: Big waves for all of our coastal | :27:02. | :27:20. | |
locations, and messy conditions. As I have mentioned, make the most of | :27:21. | :27:25. | |
Thursday. It is going to be the best day of the week. Have a good | :27:26. | :27:27. | |
evening. This is the most fragrant the studio | :27:28. | :27:38. | |
has been. I can hardly see David Vaughan of! Have a lovely evening | :27:39. | :27:39. | |
and enjoy your pancakes. Good night. MUSIC: Another Day Of Sun | :27:40. | :27:49. | |
