# come on, baby... this is hull's finest export! cheering there's no doubt this man, our leader, put his head on the block by saying, basically, i fervently believe — because that's what he believes — of a relationship, and a strong one, with the trade unions and the labour party. a formidable political figure who guided a party that, . for decades, was on the fringes of politics to the heart - of power, changing. the political landscape of the united kingdom and delivering a referendum on independence. _ for scotland, the campaign continues, and the dream shall never die. # 0aria raio # 0ba, oba, oba...

watch zagallo, the outside left. and straight through the goalkeeper's legs for goal number four. inside to beckenbauer. and this is the third one. oh, what a magnificent...! cheering beckenbauer- and his style of play, perhaps one of the - phenomenons of the '70s. does he make it? cruyff, number 14. ball is deflected — neeskens! good save, and then in again! it's that man again. schillaci has done it once more! luke, you do not yet realise your importance. i love being a part of that whole cult, especially when their kids want their posters signed. you can't say no to that. if you only knew the power of the dark side... he wanted to use orson welles, but he thought 0rson might be too recognisable.

through the night... he speaks in russian in the orphanage, they ranked us by favourites. number one was the favourite child, number 27 was the least—favourite child. and because of my vitiligo i was number 27. and so, that meant i got the smallest portion of food, and the last choice of clothes. # livin�* alone # i think of all the friends i've known # but when i dial the telephone

and to motor neurone disease awareness. your royal highness told me to keep fighting your best fight. # the story of your life.# hello. well, it's so mild, i don't think we're going to even see a flake of snow falling on the highest peaks of the highlands. it's just such a warm atmosphere over us right now, streaming in from the southern climes. christmas day will be rather cloudy for most of us. a few glimmers of sunshine here and there, and it looks as though it's going to stay mild for the remainder of the year. now, on the satellite picture, you can see this conveyor belt of cloud streaming in from the central north atlantic. ahead of it, a push of mild air coming all the way from the azores. and it's spreading notjust over the uk and many parts of western europe, but also well into scandinavia,

where temperatures are above freezing. so it's a very mild end to what will be a record—breaking year globally as far as the temperature goes. now, let's have a look at the forecast for the morning, then. so we start off very mild. breezy conditions in scotland, if not very windy around some coastal areas. a little bit of rain there flirting with north—western scotland. elsewhere, some sunny spells developing — for example, eastern scotland to the east of the pennines to the lee of any high ground — with this south—westerly breeze. and double figures right across the board. 12, 13 celsius is certainly on the cards, for example, in northern ireland. so a very mild christmas day and a mild boxing day on the way. the winds are going to ease, though, across scotland. you can see the pressure lines there, the isobars to the north. here, it's going to be a little bit lighter, that wind. but the weather front will make some progress and will bring some dribs and drabs of rain to scotland and perhaps northern ireland. again, sunny spells are possible to the lee of high ground.

double figures mostly across the board, but northern scotland finds itselfjust the other side of that weather front in this slightly colder air. when i say "colder", it's actually closer to what we'd expect, at least on average, across this part of the world. so friday, once again, mild air spread across the uk and, indeed, many other parts of europe. so anotherfairly cloudy and mild picture. those temperatures perhaps not quite so high, but still on the mild side. a reminder — the average for this time of the year is typically between around 6—8 celsius. and as we head towards the new year, it's going to stay mild, but the indication is it will turn very windy, perhaps even stormy and really quite wet. that's it from me. merry christmas.
