we're not protected. a new campaign with a serious and urgent warning to parents to get children protected against a range of dangerous diseases. over the last decade, uptake of all childhood vaccines offered through the nhs programmes has been falling, including vaccines that offer protection from things like meningitis, measles, whooping cough and polio. so england no longer has the immunity levels recommended by the world health organization needed to prevent outbreaks. and this is why we're tragically seeing measles cases spreading around the country with far too many children becoming seriously ill and being hospitalised. since the beginning of october last year, the total number of confirmed cases of measles in england has now reached 650, including 183 newly confirmed cases in the past four weeks. 43% of those have been reported from the west midlands,
1:49 pm
followed by i9% in the north west, 14% in london and 10% in the east midlands. and in each of those areas, vaccine uptake is below the crucial target of 95%, the level needed to stop measles from spreading. in many ways, vaccines are a victim of their own success. we know from the research that we've done in preparing for this campaign that parents may not feel that infection like measles is a real and present danger for their children because they're no longer common, because in general, vaccine uptake is high. so what we need to do is actually he needs his mmr. health officials say complacency, busy family lives and parents' lack of knowledge of the illnesses may also play a part. working with the nhs, they're now anxious to protect any children who've missed out, such as these in peterborough. we really don't know when we might get the measles or any other invisible diseases, and i think all parents should make
1:50 pm
it a priority for their kids to have these immunisations. it is important because it prevents people from diseases. and those diseases can also kill young children and adults. that's why it's really important. but health officials say they know reversing this decline in vaccine uptake will take time and are planning to launch similar campaigns like this during the rest of the year. charlie rose, bbc news. let's get more on the news that one of the so—called hairy bikers — dave myers — has died at the age of of 66. three years ago both he and si king visited the stackpole inn in pembrokeshire — an award—winning restaurant. while they were there — they sampled the local food and gave some advice to the head chef. and that chef is matt waldron, who joins us live now.

1:55 pm
bringing persistent outbreaks of rain. further north—west, we've got heavy showers — some of these will have thunder and hail mixed in, but the rain certainly set in across east anglia, down through southeast england, where it's going to stay, really, through the rest of the day today. so particularly wet weather here. showers in northern ireland aren'tjust going to stay for western counties. they're going to sweep right the way across with hail and thunder in those. also hail and thunder in the showers across western areas of scotland. the day's top temperature ranging from 8 to 12 celsius for most. now, overnight tonight, a new area of low pressure is set to develop with a band of rain starting to push in through the night. ahead of that feature, it will be cold with quite a widespread frost developing across scotland and northern england. and then, as we start off friday morning, we may well see some of this rain start to turn to snow. now, the greatest risk of snow is on this occluded weather front that stretches across the peak district, the pennines and on into parts of northern ireland. it is hill snow that we're talking about, and there could be some areas that see around about five centimetres of snow, but others seeing
1:56 pm
probably very little. and certainly, down at the lower elevations, it's just cold outbreaks of rain that you're going to see from this weather front. temperatures really struggling underneath it. it's probablyjust two or three celsius for a good chunk of the day. away from that, we'll see some blustery conditions and showers spreading into wales and southern counties of england, something a bit drier across scotland with our temperatures generally a little bit below average for the time of year. now, on into the weekend, the same area of low pressure is going to be loitering over the top of the uk. ok, it's going to be weakening, but nevertheless, it will be bringing showers and the showers will be particularly widespread as we start off the weekend. so on saturday, a day of sunny spells and showers, the showers heavy with some hail and thunder mixed in, still cold enough for a little bit of snow over the very tops of the hills and mountains across northern england and scotland as well. but it shouldn't be impactful snow. temperatures around 6 to 8 celsius or so. so still feeling a little on the cold side. sunday, the same low pressure is still with us, but it's weakening, so there'll be
