This is BBC World News Today with me Tim Willcox. Continued fighting | :00:08. | :00:11. | |
in Syria after a UN deadline for government forces to start | :00:11. | :00:16. | |
withdrawing. Despite the bloodshed, the architect of the international | :00:16. | :00:19. | |
peace plan refuses to admit defeat I believe it's a bit too early to | :00:19. | :00:28. | |
say that the plan has failed. If for it is too early to say the | :00:28. | :00:32. | |
plan has failed. A The plan is still on the table and it's a plan | :00:33. | :00:35. | |
we are all fighting to implement. European human rights judges decide | :00:35. | :00:38. | |
5 terrorist suspects including the radical preacher Abu Hamza can be | :00:38. | :00:44. | |
extradited to the United States. From favoured son to the political | :00:44. | :00:47. | |
wilderness - Bo Xilai is expelled from China's Politburo, his wife | :00:47. | :00:53. | |
now under investigation over the murder of a British businessman. | :00:53. | :00:56. | |
Also coming up in the programme: worrying new research into patients | :00:56. | :01:00. | |
with computer-controlled medical implants. The message - beware | :01:00. | :01:04. | |
hackers who could cost you your life. | :01:05. | :01:07. | |
And a hundred years to the day since the Titanic left Southampton | :01:08. | :01:10. | |
- the city remembers its 500 residents who perished when the | :01:10. | :01:20. | |
:01:20. | :01:28. | ||
Hello and welcome. It was a deadline that came and | :01:28. | :01:31. | |
went. The supposed Syrian withdrawal of heavy weapons from | :01:31. | :01:34. | |
civilian areas - replaced instead with shelling and helicopter | :01:34. | :01:39. | |
gunships attacks on Homs, Hama and villages near the Turkish border. | :01:39. | :01:41. | |
Despite Syria's Foreign Minister claiming the withdrawal had begun | :01:41. | :01:46. | |
the White House claimed it had seen no evidence to that effect. | :01:46. | :01:48. | |
International envoy, Kofi Annan, however maintained the | :01:48. | :01:50. | |
international peace plan can still be implemented by Thursday's | :01:50. | :01:55. | |
deadline of a ceasefire on both sides. Our correspondent Fergal | :01:56. | :02:03. | |
Keane reports from the Turkey-Syria border. | :02:03. | :02:11. | |
If the piece is about to dawn, there is no sign of it in Homs. | :02:11. | :02:18. | |
This is the voice of a cameraman record in the violence. It is being | :02:18. | :02:25. | |
destroyed by random shelling, 10th April. God is great! In Homs and | :02:25. | :02:33. | |
other towns, the destruction seemed to be escalating. With time running | :02:33. | :02:43. | |
out, Kofi Annan came to visit the refugees of the violence. There was | :02:43. | :02:47. | |
a welcome. Most of these people have fled from the North with | :02:47. | :02:54. | |
stories of killing and torture. All day, the cavalcade moved from camp | :02:54. | :02:59. | |
to camp. Some of the refugees we met clung to the hope the mission | :02:59. | :03:04. | |
might work. TRANSLATION: May be something would happen in Syria. | :03:04. | :03:10. | |
And we can go back to our families and children. Kofi Annan has been | :03:10. | :03:14. | |
asked for solutions he can't deliver. It is a question of | :03:14. | :03:18. | |
achieving a ceasefire and going home. A growing number of voices | :03:18. | :03:23. | |
are demanding the opposition the armed and achieve a military | :03:23. | :03:29. | |
victory. The mood of militancy is growing. These men told us they | :03:29. | :03:35. | |
were from the free Syrian army with little faith in Kofi Annan. | :03:35. | :03:40. | |
TRANSLATION: We want NATO to come into Syria and give weapons to us | :03:40. | :03:46. | |
and we want to liberate so we can free the country. | :03:46. | :03:52. | |
As the clock ticks on the deadline, Kofi Annan's mission looks forlorn. | :03:52. | :03:58. | |
He continued to press Damascus to push forces back. Let me appeal to | :03:58. | :04:03. | |
the Syrian government and parties to cease violence in accordance | :04:03. | :04:08. | |
with the plan and I believe there should be no preconditions for | :04:08. | :04:15. | |
stopping violence. In Moscow where he met his Russian counterpart, | :04:15. | :04:21. | |
Syria's foreign minister said they were abiding by the agreement. | :04:21. | :04:26. | |
TRANSLATION: We have withdrawn of military units from some provinces, | :04:26. | :04:30. | |
we have allowed a more immediate challenges -- channels to enter and | :04:30. | :04:36. | |
have reached agreement for humanitarian aid for the needy. | :04:36. | :04:43. | |
Kofi Annan asked what the world we do if the plan failed. It is a | :04:43. | :04:51. | |
question bearing down with growing agency. -- what the world would do. | :04:51. | :04:57. | |
Jonathan head joins us on the border. Pessimism on most fronts | :04:57. | :05:02. | |
with a surreal will comply, is there a change in thinking on the | :05:02. | :05:05. | |
Turkish position about buffer zones? | :05:05. | :05:10. | |
Kofi Annan was here and Turkey reiterated its support his mission. | :05:10. | :05:14. | |
The truth is they support the mission because it's the only | :05:14. | :05:20. | |
internationally backed one but they do not believe in it. Because they | :05:20. | :05:27. | |
did believe, given their proximity and shared border they have to plan | :05:27. | :05:31. | |
for alternatives. They talk about other steps that must be taken. | :05:31. | :05:37. | |
They will not give details, they were considering as a last resort | :05:37. | :05:41. | |
the idea of using their army to establish buffer zones to protect | :05:41. | :05:46. | |
civilians. Originally they feared they would be flooded by a larger | :05:46. | :05:50. | |
numbers of refugees. Hundreds of thousands but government officials | :05:50. | :05:54. | |
are saying it's not just about that, it's now protecting people if the | :05:54. | :05:58. | |
slaughter continues. We would have to see what happens in the next 48 | :05:58. | :06:02. | |
hours. If the government complied, though the mistrust and the ability | :06:02. | :06:07. | |
to cheat. A lot of the forces are not in uniform and the plan could | :06:07. | :06:13. | |
falter even if the deadline which has been stretched by Kofi Annan to | :06:13. | :06:17. | |
6:00pm on Thursday when the fighting should stop, even if that | :06:17. | :06:25. | |
happens, Turkey will consider alternatives. Sending their army | :06:25. | :06:29. | |
over the border is a drastic step and they may plan for it but were | :06:29. | :06:34. | |
not be in a hurry to put it forward. Also visiting, Julie Sharman and | :06:34. | :06:42. | |
John McCain and the public response to their message more positive. | :06:42. | :06:47. | |
lot more from the refugees. There were roars of cheers as John McCain | :06:48. | :06:52. | |
moved around among the refugees. Kofi Annan was there a long time | :06:52. | :06:59. | |
and he had a polite protest. People appreciate what he is doing but the | :06:59. | :07:03. | |
international community has let them down and nobody has any faith | :07:03. | :07:07. | |
in the Kofi Annan plan because it relies on the good faith of Syrian | :07:07. | :07:12. | |
government, good faith that has not been to straight -- displayed a to | :07:12. | :07:15. | |
this conflict. If you have been on the receiving end of the army, you | :07:15. | :07:22. | |
do not expect people to have any faith in him. They want him gone. | :07:22. | :07:28. | |
What Kofi Annan seemed willing to see signs of hope, he has been more | :07:28. | :07:33. | |
robust in a letter he sent to the UN Security Council. Let's get the | :07:33. | :07:40. | |
latest from Barbara. How much further has he gone in the letter? | :07:40. | :07:44. | |
Well, the main thrust of his comments was the same as his public | :07:44. | :07:49. | |
ones, the absolute imperative to press on both parties the need to | :07:49. | :07:54. | |
stop violence by Thursday morning. He is saying we can still salvage | :07:54. | :07:58. | |
the peace plan and salvage the efforts to stop violence and both | :07:58. | :08:02. | |
sides must be impressed upon to do so but he went into more detail | :08:02. | :08:09. | |
about the Government's performance so far saying it failed to send a | :08:09. | :08:14. | |
signal of peace in the days leading up to today's deadline for ended | :08:14. | :08:16. | |
military operations but it had introduced a new conditions which | :08:16. | :08:21. | |
were not part of the plan and which put at risk the cessation of | :08:21. | :08:27. | |
violence and although it made some withdrawals in essence it was still | :08:27. | :08:30. | |
continuing military operations against the people. The Security | :08:30. | :08:37. | |
Council chose to emphasise to final points in a letter, the president | :08:37. | :08:42. | |
stressed it wanted to emphasise Kofi Annan's statement that the | :08:42. | :08:46. | |
government in the next 48 hours had to change its military posturing | :08:46. | :08:50. | |
around the country. It was essential the government changed | :08:51. | :08:54. | |
its military posture in a way we could be verified and was | :08:54. | :09:00. | |
indisputable. The opposition also should stop any violence in order | :09:00. | :09:07. | |
the government cannot not have any excuse. The other. It emphasised | :09:07. | :09:12. | |
from the letter was it was deeply concerned about the implementation | :09:12. | :09:17. | |
of its obligations which were deeply inadequate and also that it | :09:17. | :09:22. | |
wanted to impress on both parties to keep his Thursday deadline for a | :09:22. | :09:28. | |
ceasefire. Are there any signs Syria's main backers are shifting | :09:28. | :09:34. | |
their position, Russia and China? Russia and China have backed | :09:34. | :09:38. | |
statements from the Security Council so they want pressure on | :09:38. | :09:42. | |
the government and opposition for a cessation of violence by Thursday. | :09:42. | :09:46. | |
Anything more than that, it is too early to say. | :09:46. | :09:49. | |
Now a look at some of the days other news: Court-appointed | :09:49. | :09:51. | |
psychiatrists in Norway say the right-wing extremist Anders Breivik | :09:51. | :09:55. | |
is sane. That means he could be sentenced to life in prison for | :09:55. | :10:00. | |
killing 77 people in Oslo and on the island of Uteoya last July. | :10:00. | :10:08. | |
Breivik's defence team said he was pleased with the evaluation. | :10:08. | :10:13. | |
A court in Egypt has spent as a court to draft a constitution. | :10:13. | :10:17. | |
There was a complaint filed by secular members of parliament | :10:17. | :10:22. | |
saying the commission is just five -- dominated by his illness. It was | :10:22. | :10:25. | |
supposed to make important decisions about Islamic law in | :10:25. | :10:35. | |
:10:35. | :10:38. | ||
Egypt. An old car that previously belonged | :10:38. | :10:41. | |
to the German chancellor, Angela Merkel, has been put up for sale on | :10:41. | :10:44. | |
the internet. The Volkswagen that Mrs Merkel bought in the early 1990 | :10:44. | :10:47. | |
has sparked enormous interest with over 150 bidders already offering | :10:47. | :10:50. | |
more than two hundred times the amount cars of the same make and | :10:50. | :10:52. | |
vintage would fetch. Five terrorism suspects living in | :10:52. | :10:55. | |
Britain have lost their battle to avoid extradition to the United | :10:55. | :10:57. | |
States. They include the radical cleric, Abu Hamza, who's facing 11 | :10:57. | :11:00. | |
terrorism-related charges. Babar Ahmad, who's accused of raising | :11:00. | :11:03. | |
money for terrorist groups. And two men allegedly involved in US | :11:03. | :11:07. | |
Embassy bombings in Kenya and Tanzania in 1998. The ruling by the | :11:07. | :11:10. | |
European Court of Human Rights said the suspects' human rights would | :11:10. | :11:13. | |
not be violated by possible life sentences and solitary confinement | :11:13. | :11:23. | |
:11:23. | :11:30. | ||
in a US "supermax" prison. The A typical Abu Hamza tirade urging | :11:30. | :11:34. | |
followers to kill. He has been convicted in Britain of inciting | :11:35. | :11:41. | |
murder. Now, he is one of five suspects facing American justice. | :11:41. | :11:44. | |
Europe has cleared the way for them to put on a plane acknowledging | :11:44. | :11:54. | |
:11:54. | :12:03. | ||
they could face life in prison. A I welcome the decision taken by the | :12:03. | :12:09. | |
European Court of Human Rights in Strasbourg. This allows the | :12:09. | :12:14. | |
extradition, the extradition would not be a violation of the human | :12:14. | :12:17. | |
rights and we will be working to ensure we can hand over these | :12:17. | :12:22. | |
individuals including Abu Hamza to the United States soon as possible. | :12:22. | :12:26. | |
As for the charges, he is said to have been involved in a plot to | :12:26. | :12:32. | |
kidnap Westerners in Yemen, four Britons died. Inside the US, | :12:32. | :12:38. | |
conspiring a training camp in Oregon. For years, his power base | :12:38. | :12:45. | |
was Finsbury Park mosque stop in the late 90s this man worked as an | :12:45. | :12:49. | |
informant gathering intelligence for the police and MI5. I describe | :12:49. | :12:56. | |
Abu Hamza or as a terrorist in Chief. Very dangerous person. | :12:56. | :13:01. | |
Abu Hamza in charge, Finsbury Park mosque was a breeding ground for | :13:01. | :13:05. | |
extremists. Some fell under his influence committed acts of | :13:05. | :13:13. | |
terrorism. The same oarsman, one of the 217 terrorist cells who failed | :13:13. | :13:18. | |
to cause carnage for a second time on the London transport system. | :13:18. | :13:23. | |
Others include the only person convicted in relation to 9/11, | :13:23. | :13:30. | |
Richard Reid, the shoe bomber and another jailed over the rice in a | :13:30. | :13:36. | |
poison plot. Four of the men could end up here, Americas modern-day | :13:36. | :13:42. | |

Hamza or were not be sent here because he is disabled. He has lost | :13:45. | :13:50. | |
both his arms and is blind in one night. The five facing extradition | :13:50. | :13:55. | |
are wanted on a range of charges, including supporting terrorists and | :13:55. | :14:00. | |
bombing US embassies. One is accused of over 269 counts of | :14:00. | :14:07. | |
murder. Let's speak to Professor of Law at | :14:07. | :14:12. | |
the University of Essex. How surprised were you by this ruling? | :14:12. | :14:21. | |
Not at all surprised on one level because in some ways sending people | :14:21. | :14:26. | |
to a maximum security prison in the United States from a prison in the | :14:26. | :14:33. | |
UK with the assurances obtained wasn't necessarily going to raise | :14:33. | :14:39. | |
so many issues with article 3 of the human rights. What's surprising | :14:39. | :14:45. | |
is in some ways is some of the statements made by the European | :14:45. | :14:51. | |
Court of Human Rights with respect to the experiences they would have | :14:51. | :14:56. | |
once in the United States if they are convicted and then sent there. | :14:56. | :15:03. | |
Talk us through those comments that were made. They are talking about | :15:03. | :15:08. | |
solitary confinement, the European Court of Human Rights has a string | :15:08. | :15:13. | |
of cases dealing with solitary confinement and how it can amount | :15:13. | :15:18. | |
to inhuman or degrading treatment. One of the things they talk about | :15:18. | :15:22. | |
his social isolation yet in the judgment it says even when they are | :15:22. | :15:28. | |
in their cells and that is for the majority of the time they will be | :15:28. | :15:32. | |
there, they can still communicate even if it's only through the | :15:32. | :15:38. | |
ventilation system. But to me does not sound like a proper means of | :15:38. | :15:43. | |
social interaction. If they can talk freely in a recreation periods | :15:43. | :15:47. | |
and the court accepted this was raised from five hours a week to 10 | :15:47. | :15:56. | |
hours a week and that seemed to There are some cases in America | :15:56. | :16:00. | |
where people have been held in solitary confinement for 40 years. | :16:00. | :16:05. | |
Yes. The problem with solitary confinement is the nature of that | :16:05. | :16:10. | |
confinement. There are various degrees of solitary -- solitude. | :16:10. | :16:18. | |
The most extreme cases, yes it is degrading and inhumane and it can | :16:18. | :16:27. | |
swiftly lead to psychological breakdown. What the court has said | :16:27. | :16:32. | |
is that the experience of solitary confinement still allows for some | :16:32. | :16:38. | |
and sufficient it is -- social interaction. Does this really clear | :16:38. | :16:45. | |
the last obstacle to the extradition of Abu Hamza or? First | :16:45. | :16:50. | |
of all, let me reiterate that Abu Hamza will not be sent away because | :16:50. | :17:00. | |
:17:00. | :17:00. | ||
of his medical conditions, but no, it doesn't, the case could go to a | :17:00. | :17:07. | |
grand chamber. How rare is that? is not that rare, in very important | :17:07. | :17:11. | |
cases, and it depends whether this is seen as such a significant | :17:11. | :17:21. | |
:17:21. | :17:21. | ||
decision that a whole grand chamber should sit and come to a conclusion | :17:21. | :17:25. | |
regarding the extradition to a maximum-security prison. Thank you | :17:25. | :17:30. | |
very much.. In an ultra networked world, | :17:30. | :17:35. | |
medical science, in particular it medical implants, have flourished. | :17:35. | :17:39. | |
This is not without risks and research suggests that implants | :17:39. | :17:42. | |
which communicate wirelessly with systems outside the body could be | :17:42. | :17:49. | |
vulnerable to hacking. Professor Kevin Fu is a computer scientist | :17:49. | :17:55. | |
and joins us now. Has this happened or is this just a fear? Could | :17:55. | :18:02. | |
evening. The good news is that there are no reports of incidents, | :18:02. | :18:06. | |
security incidents, against medical devices. The real questions is | :18:06. | :18:10. | |
about insurance for the future as these devices become interconnected | :18:10. | :18:17. | |
in our daily lives. So what are the risks? If you are looking at | :18:17. | :18:24. | |
insulin, a malicious hacker could do real harm. In the world of | :18:24. | :18:29. | |
medical devices, there is a careful risk benefit trade-off. The risks | :18:29. | :18:36. | |
and the consequences did not require too much imagination, for | :18:36. | :18:40. | |
instance, an incident on could release insulin more quickly than | :18:40. | :18:45. | |
necessary. What is harder to understand is the proper balance, | :18:46. | :18:48. | |
because at insecurity can sometimes make it more difficult to make | :18:48. | :18:55. | |
devices remained simple. I think you have been working on a shield | :18:55. | :18:59. | |
to block out anyone else trying to target this device, but are we | :18:59. | :19:04. | |
looking at a design fault? The people who designed these implants | :19:04. | :19:09. | |
did not realise understand or plan for what might be happening a few | :19:09. | :19:15. | |
years down the line. That is a good question. In my view, many of these | :19:15. | :19:19. | |
devices both in planted and none in planted were designed for the | :19:19. | :19:22. | |
disconnected world, and they are safe and effective in that world. | :19:22. | :19:27. | |
The problem is that these devices are increasingly becoming networked | :19:27. | :19:29. | |
and having path ways to the internet, which brings a different | :19:29. | :19:35. | |
kind of scenario. Before the internet, there was very little | :19:35. | :19:43. | |
computer viruses that could spread as quickly as they can today. | :19:43. | :19:48. | |
Dutch -- can't you download remotely, like we do with our | :19:48. | :19:52. | |
phones and computers? Could some sort of software be sent by the | :19:52. | :19:58. | |
very means by which the threat arises? It would be nice to be able | :19:58. | :20:03. | |
to quickly update software on a medical device for potential | :20:03. | :20:10. | |
viruses. I do not think that is going to happen soon. Right now, | :20:10. | :20:16. | |
one makes an appointment with their electric physiologist to get end | :20:16. | :20:26. | |
:20:26. | :20:28. | ||
update -- an update. Thank you very much. | :20:28. | :20:31. | |

Stewart. He was in charge of life by five. We believe he saved | :21:31. | :21:34. | |
somebody's life. I feel that what happened that night to him and to | :21:34. | :21:43. | |
so many others, I have a connection and they just want to be there will | :21:43. | :21:52. | |
for him. -- Ian Ayre for him. THEY SING. | :21:52. | :21:58. | |
News of the disaster brought despair to the port. Day and night, | :21:58. | :22:05. | |
the crowds strange to read the casualty lists. A century on, the | :22:05. | :22:09. | |
hubbub of a busy port was still as despairing community turned his | :22:09. | :22:15. | |
thoughts to the horrors of one night on a distant ocean. | :22:15. | :22:20. | |
SHIP'S HORN BLOWS. Silence broken by a sound which has | :22:20. | :22:24. | |
not been head since it echoed across the rooftops a century ago, | :22:24. | :22:34. | |
when the Titanic set her farewells. OTHER SHIPS BLOW HORNS IN RESPONSE. | :22:34. | :22:38. | |
From around the sprawling docks came the response, as one by one | :22:38. | :22:43. | |
the visitors laid their tributes and looked back to that departure. | :22:43. | :22:48. | |
On Southampton Water, the took Calshot, a survivor from that era, | :22:48. | :22:54. | |
let the flotilla away from berth 44. Away from Southampton, news that | :22:54. | :22:58. | |
the MS Balmoral, which is retracing the Titanic's route across the | :22:58. | :23:02. | |
Titanic, has been forced to turn back because of a medical emergency | :23:02. | :23:07. | |
on board. The ship will return to the Irish coast so that the | :23:07. | :23:10. | |
passenger can be evacuated. Balmoral is expected to reach the | :23:10. | :23:15. | |
wreck site to run -- to hold a commemorative service this weekend. | :23:15. | :23:20. | |
In Southampton, Titanic's loss will be a painful part of the city's | :23:20. | :23:24. | |
history forever, and families will return home to buy knowing that | :23:24. | :23:30. | |
this story is still being told. It is more than five years since | :23:30. | :23:34. | |
the notoriously brutal rebel group Lord's Resistance Army left Uganda. | :23:34. | :23:40. | |
The rebels have continued to commit atrocities and cause displacement | :23:40. | :23:45. | |
across the Central African Republic, Eastern Congo and South Sudan. The | :23:45. | :23:49. | |
North of Uganda is enjoying peace for the first time in decades. Our | :23:49. | :23:52. | |
correspondent has returned to Kitgum, from where he reported for | :23:52. | :23:56. | |
the BBC at the height of the conflict. | :23:56. | :24:00. | |
There is laughter in the dawn chorus these days. Unlike five | :24:00. | :24:05. | |
years ago, when the war was on, the children of Northern Uganda are now | :24:05. | :24:14. | |
safe. May we standstill for the national anthem! The hunger to | :24:14. | :24:19. | |
learn is strong, but it is not interrupted by the terror of | :24:19. | :24:24. | |
marauding rebels. During that time, they had the trauma of running here | :24:24. | :24:32. | |
and there, especially if there are gunshots. That was a time when many | :24:32. | :24:35. | |
young children were defeated. I was here at the height of the | :24:35. | :24:40. | |
conflict, at this time of day when the sun was setting, there was an | :24:40. | :24:45. | |
extraordinary spectacle. We're going to leave that. We're | :24:45. | :24:49. | |
taking you to a press conference been given by Rex and Doran, the | :24:49. | :24:53. | |
presidential candidate, he was giving this statement. His daughter | :24:53. | :24:59. | |
has been in hospital for the weekend. We were very concerned | :24:59. | :25:02. | |
about our role as being the best pair as we possibly could to our | :25:02. | :25:09. | |
children. We want to make sure they have a country where the American | :25:09. | :25:17. | |
dream is still possible. A lot of concerns that we had for our family | :25:17. | :25:21. | |
were that with what is going on in Washington DC and all of the | :25:22. | :25:25. | |
problems you have heard the talk about on the campaign trail, that | :25:25. | :25:31. | |
American Dream was slipping not just from the hands of average | :25:31. | :25:39. | |
Americans, but from all Americans. As good parents, we had to go out | :25:40. | :25:43. | |
and do what we could, to take on that responsibility for our | :25:43. | :25:49. | |
children and four children across this country. We started out almost | :25:49. | :25:54. | |
a year ago now in Somerset, Pennsylvania, and I told my story. | :25:54. | :25:59. | |
The story of our family, of my grandfather, he came to this | :25:59. | :26:03. | |
country and worked in the coalmines, and my father, he served our | :26:03. | :26:07. | |
country in World War II. Throughout the course of this campaign, we | :26:07. | :26:11. | |
have talked about my stories and stories of our families, but after | :26:11. | :26:19. | |
a while, as it became less about my stories and more about what kept us | :26:19. | :26:24. | |
going to weigh your stories. Stories of people across America we | :26:24. | :26:30. | |
have the privilege of getting to know and to interact with. When you | :26:30. | :26:34. | |
travel around, one such story was a guy named Chuck who had a pick-up | :26:34. | :26:40. | |
truck and has joined our team and drove us around for months on end | :26:40. | :26:47. | |
as a volunteer, because he believed that we provided the best | :26:47. | :26:52. | |
opportunity to turn this country around. I met a lot of folks in | :26:52. | :26:58. | |
eyewear who I'll never forget. Talking about his three-year-old | :26:58. | :27:07. | |
daughter who has been in hospital. He was worrying about what has been | :27:07. | :27:17. | |

Heavy showers tomorrow. We will have sunny spells as well. We have | :27:24. | :27:28. | |

They eat at the sunshine gets clouds bubbling up on Wednesday | :27:31. | :27:38. | |
morning. That will produce heavy showers. They will be slow moving. | :27:38. | :27:41. | |
The winds on Wednesday afternoon will be light, which means that the | :27:41. | :27:46. | |
showers will take a while to be fair way. It is hit and miss. In | :27:46. | :27:50. | |
between, there will be lengthy spells of sunshine, with | :27:50. | :27:54. | |
temperatures rising to 14 tree Celsius on Wednesday afternoon. | :27:54. | :28:03. | |
They are likely to start in western areas and move eastwards. Things | :28:03. | :28:07. | |
should be dry and brighter by Wednesday afternoon. For Northern | :28:07. | :28:11. | |
Ireland, sunny spells and scattered showers. A similar fate across, and | :28:11. | :28:17. |
