what is called unlawful information gathering, private investigators digging a hole of private data in this movement on airline flights and financial records are his medical records in the case be unveiled at some point in the future but the paper is claiming a significant victory because prince erie was rejected for a trial on allegations of phone hacking and access to his mobile phone voicemails and he was supposed to have taken legal action under british law within six years these claims go back to 1996 and he claims he cannot do that because the palace had a secret deal with newsgroup newspapers, the publisher, not to take legal action in return for the newspaper paying damages and apologising at some point in the future after being dealt with at some of the other cases. prince harry said they could not of suit
5:40 pm
and thejudge decided harry said they could not of suit and the judge decided that there was only vague and limited evidence not really wasn't a credible argument from prince harry and if the prince had been able to exercise what he called reasonable diligence on the phone hacking scandal broke in 2006 as late as 2011 at 2012 at 2013, he would've had a case. so, here's to a prince harry that he will not advocate cindy will not be able to go to trial in the newsgroup says they really knocked all and half of his claims and that is a significant victory. there will be potentially be a trial on other matters to deal with unlawful information gathering and it's notjust prince harry, it is hugh grant potentially more than a hundred people who may also sue. breaking news

5:56 pm
and thenjust behind me, this little swirl of clouds, that's the centre of an area of low pressure, which will be pushing eastwards, bringing unsettled conditions for the next few days. in the short term, we keep quite a lot of cloud, mist and murk some bits and pieces of rain overnight, although signs of some clearer skies edging in from the west. temperatures between 11 and 16 degrees. so another fairly warm and muggy starts to friday morning. so for friday, quite a lot of cloud around across the eastern half of the uk to start this band of rain moving very slowly across orkney and towards shetland. and later in the day we will see this band of showers pushing in towards northern ireland. but in between a bit more in the way of sunshine, just one or two showers here and there and temperatures between 17 and 2a degrees. so i think there is just the chance of catching a shower at the oval for the ashes test match and the increasing chance of showers
5:57 pm
as we head into the weekend. and that is because low pressure is going to be in charge of our weather. now, we've had low pressure with us for the last couple of weekends. and here we go again. now, around this area of low pressure, it's not going to be raining all the time, but there will be quite a few showers on saturday. those showers most likely to affect parts of northern ireland and scotland where some could be heavy and perhaps thundery some showers for england and wales, perhaps not as many spells of sunshine in between. it's going to be quite a breezy day and a fresher feeling day as well. temperatures north to south, 15 to 22 degrees. and then we get into sunday, sunshine and showers again. the showers perhaps focused across parts of northern england, down into east anglia. some more rain later in the day into northern ireland across central and southern parts of the uk. it is going to be an unusually windy
5:58 pm
day for the time of year. nothing exceptional, nothing extreme, butjust unusually breezy for a latejuly day and quite cool as well, 15 to 21 degrees. soto sum things up for the weekend, we will see a mix of sunny spells and showers, some of the showers will be heavy. it will be quite breezy and feeling rather cool for the time of year.
