i want to take it to edinburgh airport.o that is going to be food for the uk's only giant pandas, soon to be not the uk is any more, they have left edinburgh zoo, returning home to china. there they are, in those boxes they are, just a few moments ago. as there are being loaded onto the aircraft carrier they are, this is a boring 777 cargo plane, carrying them on the journey home. they have been here in the uk for 12 years now. our main attraction at edinburgh zoo. tens of thousands of people flocking to see them. and in the last few days they had their last chance to see them, and they have also been watching them via the panda cam which is keeping a close eye on them. they will be travelling in these bespoke metal crates. 0nce in these bespoke metal crates. once they are on board there will be some zookeepers there keeping a close eye on them as they travel for a 13 hour flight from edinburgh zoo, with lots of food for lunch, dinner, breakfast, whatever they are going to need. heading home after a 12 year stay at edinburg

we saw the best of edinburgh weather today and it made it very, very tough.feel like we're moving far even at the start and we come over the bridge. it was pretty tough, beautiful scenery, by the way, but we got blasted. we're all ready for hot bath now. but it was the support, you know, when the rains coming down like that and it's windy, you don't expect to see anybody. but you were in, you know, little villages just outside of edinburgh and people stood there in the rain and supporting and with the doddie memorabilia. the next leg would push their bodies even further. travelling to dublin would mean sitting around at an airport, a flight and very little sleep before running again. if these muscles could talk, they would be screaming. but help is at hand. he's pushing himself to the extreme every single day. so your body's natural reaction is to tighten. so obviously the problem is if the muscles tighten, the range of motion reduces, which can affect how we run the next day. so it's very much just trying to keep everything in working order and try to keep t

a final farewell, edinburgh reserve afinalfarewell, edinburgh reserve has been home to the pandas forend, staff helped them to acclimatise to these crates, which will be used to help transport the animals back to china. staff at the zoo became attached to the giant pandas, and they're very different personalities, and say their departure will be emotional. some have looked after them since they arrived, and well travelled with them on their return plane journey. it's been up—and—down, stressful times over the past years but we have all taken to it in very good spirits, had a very good time and it will be such a change to our lives, to our day without them here, definitely sad and it will take some getting used to fit into our new normal, without them here. ~ ., ., here. while in scotland, there were eight _ here. while in scotland, there were eight attempts - here. while in scotland, there were eight attempts at - were eight attempts at artificial insemination between the power, but yang guang and tian tian returned home having failed to produce a carb. staff say they will be closely

but by the time you get to edinburgh and glasgow, it is much too mild. showers of rain here.for belfast. cloudy conditions there for the lakes and lancashire. and lunchtime on christmas day is wet across wales, the midlands, and indeed much of the south. breezy, cloudy, with rain at times. if you want an evening walk and dry weather, you might have to wait for a while before that weather front clears away towards the east. how about boxing day? it is looking very promising indeed. well, there is a lull in the weather. the winds will die down, some sunshine there for belfast, liverpool, for hull, in the south i think some hazy sun. if you want a dry walk, do it quick in the south—west because rain should reach you by the early afternoon, and that is a precursor of a rather large and strong area of low pressure. strong winds and very heavy rain coming our way midweek. in fact, look at all of that rain sweeping across the country. yes, that is snow across the pennines, across the highlands as well. gales in the south and the west. a really unpleasant picture, and of course many
