Weatherday: Guildford Four

A Yellow Weather Warning is in place, with heavy rain forecast. This will peak locally at lunchtime but remain heavy through the afternoon and early evening.

Gusty moderate to strong wind from the southwest, and highest temperature 11deg.

On this day in 1989, the 'Guildford Four' — Gerard Conlon, Patrick Armstrong, Carole Richardson and Paul Hill — are released from prison after serving 15 years, in what is considered to be one of the worst miscarriages of justice in Britain.
