Tonight at 10 o'clock: The Prime Minister says it is full steam | :00:10. | :00:13. | |
ahead for the coalition right up until the next election. Presenting | :00:13. | :00:17. | |
the Government's mid-term review, he and Nick Clegg say that the | :00:17. | :00:21. | |
partnership can last despite their differences. This list to several | :00:21. | :00:31. | |
:00:31. | :00:32. | ||
policy areas including care of the elderly with a new action being | :00:32. | :00:37. | |
prepared. It is the Ronseal deal. You could call it the unvarnished | :00:37. | :00:42. | |
truth! Labour say that the deal it lacks any substance. | :00:42. | :00:50. | |
Also tonight: Violence in Belfast over the continuing row about | :00:50. | :00:53. | |
flying the union flag. The seven-year-old boy murdered by | :00:53. | :00:58. | |
his mother for failing to learn passengers from the Koran. | :00:58. | :01:06. | |
Republicans are infuriated by appointments buyer Barack Obama and | :01:06. | :01:10. | |
say they will block them. And the oldest man aged 104 has | :01:10. | :01:14. | |
died. Everton aim to avoid an upset in | :01:14. | :01:17. | |
the FA Cup as they take on Cheltenham in the final tier of the | :01:17. | :01:27. | |
:01:27. | :01:38. | ||
third round. Good evening. David Cameron and | :01:38. | :01:42. | |
Nick Clegg say they will keep the coalition together until the next | :01:42. | :01:45. | |
election in 2015. At a joint news conference in Downing Street, they | :01:45. | :01:50. | |
unveiled the mid-term review and outlined policy areas, including | :01:50. | :01:56. | |
care of the elderly, when you action is being planned. Labour | :01:56. | :02:02. | |
said that the review like any detail or substance. -- new action. | :02:02. | :02:06. | |
After all the rows and disappointment, the leaders of the | :02:06. | :02:09. | |
coalition want you to know they are not even thinking about divorce and | :02:09. | :02:14. | |
that is official. We are married. Not to each other. We are both | :02:14. | :02:17. | |
happily married and this is a Government and not a relationship. | :02:17. | :02:22. | |
To me it is not a marriage, it is a Ronseal deal. It does what it says | :02:22. | :02:26. | |
on the tin. We said we would come together, former Government, tackle | :02:26. | :02:30. | |
the big problems, and get on with it in a mature and sensible way and | :02:30. | :02:35. | |
that is what we have done. Their partnership, whatever you call it, | :02:35. | :02:38. | |
maybe 2.5 years old, but David Cameron and Nick Clegg are still | :02:38. | :02:43. | |
laughing at each other's jokes. could call it the unvarnished truth. | :02:43. | :02:49. | |
Anyway... I thought it was all right! Today the two men came | :02:49. | :02:51. | |
together to publish his glossy brochure assessing what they have | :02:51. | :02:57. | |
done and what they plan to do. But more importantly to insist that | :02:57. | :03:04. | |
they are sticking together until election Duff Park. -- until | :03:04. | :03:08. | |
election part them. Are you saying that there will be no break-up and | :03:08. | :03:12. | |
you will be in this room working together until that election? | :03:12. | :03:17. | |
more evidence do you need that we are committed to doing what we have | :03:17. | :03:21. | |
said, doing what it says on the tin? Providing stable Government | :03:21. | :03:25. | |
for this country for five years. Coalition is still in the national | :03:25. | :03:28. | |
interest, they claim, but the document did not give any marks out | :03:28. | :03:33. | |
of 10 for promises broken. Like balancing the books before the next | :03:33. | :03:37. | |
election. But it said that the whole series of new promises with | :03:37. | :03:42. | |
no detail or costings. Existing childcare subsidies will be | :03:42. | :03:46. | |
repackaged, probably as tax breaks. There will be a new cap on social | :03:46. | :03:50. | |
care costs, higher than that recommended by an independent | :03:50. | :03:54. | |
inquiry. There will be help with mortgages and there will be more | :03:54. | :04:01. | |
road tolls are designed to raise funds for an investment in roads. | :04:01. | :04:05. | |
And a new minimum pension with winners as well as losers. And | :04:05. | :04:08. | |
surprisingly Labour says that that ignores this, the build a country | :04:08. | :04:15. | |
is paying for the coalition's failure. -- the bill the country is | :04:15. | :04:21. | |
paying. If you living standards are being squeezed, you are a business | :04:21. | :04:25. | |
looking for money, at the relaunch proves nothing. What people need in | :04:25. | :04:31. | |
tough times is a Government fighting their corner, not a | :04:32. | :04:35. | |
Government that makes things worse and not better. What you see is not | :04:35. | :04:40. | |
always what you get. Today they glossed over their many differences. | :04:40. | :04:45. | |
Thank you for coming and back to work. Their message, we can and do | :04:45. | :04:51. | |
work together even though there is plenty that we disagree about. | :04:52. | :04:55. | |
At Downing Street, Nick Robinson is there for us. Those Tories that do | :04:55. | :04:58. | |
not like the coalition will not have been thrilled with the events | :04:58. | :05:02. | |
today. The one thing they may have liked is the reassurance from David | :05:02. | :05:05. | |
Cameron that the coalition is not like a marriage, a relationship. | :05:05. | :05:09. | |
They will not have liked his insistence that even though it is | :05:09. | :05:14. | |
guaranteed to end in divorce at the next election in 2015, we should | :05:14. | :05:17. | |
not judge the health of that relationship by the disagreements | :05:17. | :05:22. | |
that the two parties and the two leaders have got. Last year it was | :05:22. | :05:25. | |
the House of Lords reform and reaction to the Levesen Report. | :05:25. | :05:32. | |
This year there will be arguments about boundary changes and what to | :05:32. | :05:37. | |
do about Britain's future in Europe. David Cameron and Nick Clegg are | :05:37. | :05:41. | |
saying we can have those arguments and still get the job done. It is | :05:42. | :05:46. | |
striking that if you compare the disagreements around this Cabinet | :05:46. | :05:49. | |
table, over the central economic purpose of this Government for | :05:49. | :05:55. | |
instance, they are much less than they were under Harold Wilson Ted | :05:55. | :06:00. | |
Heath, Margaret Thatcher or John Major. | :06:00. | :06:03. | |
Tomorrow the two parties will try to put Labour into a political | :06:03. | :06:09. | |
corner over welfare cuts and cuts to tax credits as well. Is all well | :06:09. | :06:13. | |
in the coalition rose garden? Of course not. Because the economic | :06:13. | :06:16. | |
news looks like being grown this year again and more cuts will be | :06:16. | :06:23. | |
felt. We will not be distracted by the Olympics or the Jubilee. | :06:23. | :06:27. | |
Another crucial reason. However well the leaders get on, those | :06:27. | :06:31. | |
underneath them, the activists, the extended family in the marriage, | :06:31. | :06:36. | |
their shareholders in the business Partnership, increasingly detest | :06:36. | :06:40. | |
the sight of each other. The closer they get to a general election, the | :06:40. | :06:46. | |
more they will want you and me to know that. Thank you. | :06:46. | :06:51. | |
There has been more violence on the streets of Belfast tonight where | :06:51. | :06:53. | |
hundreds of loyalists have been protesting against the decision of | :06:53. | :06:57. | |
the city council to limit the number of days that the union flag | :06:57. | :07:03. | |
can fly from the building. They began their demonstration outside | :07:03. | :07:12. | |
City Hall. The flag decision was made a month ago. | :07:12. | :07:19. | |
The main road through East Belfast looks more like a battleground. | :07:19. | :07:23. | |
Violence has broken out for a 5th consecutive night. Writers have | :07:23. | :07:29. | |
used petrol bombs, bricks, bottles and stones and even laser pens to | :07:29. | :07:35. | |
attack the police. -- rioters. The protests started five weeks ago but | :07:35. | :07:39. | |
there is no end in sight. The police have not been able to stop | :07:39. | :07:43. | |
the violence but they are well aware of the damage it is doing. | :07:43. | :07:46. | |
is seriously damaging the economy and the image of our city. We have | :07:46. | :07:52. | |
been renowned across the world for the peace process and the efforts | :07:52. | :07:58. | |
made to get to this stage of sanity and now it has all been wrecked. | :07:58. | :08:02. | |
Tonight's demonstrations started at Belfast City Hall. The place where | :08:02. | :08:07. | |
the flag controversy began. Riot police guarded every door into the | :08:07. | :08:12. | |
council. It was the first council meeting since the decision to stop | :08:12. | :08:16. | |
flying the union flag every day. These loyalists have been | :08:16. | :08:20. | |
protesting ever since. They regard it as a sign that Northern Ireland | :08:20. | :08:24. | |
is becoming less British. Even though politicians have called for | :08:24. | :08:28. | |
the protest to end, these people have ignored them. We want our flag | :08:28. | :08:33. | |
back up. That means more to us than just a symbol. Our people have | :08:33. | :08:37. | |
fought and died for it. I think it is time that the political leaders | :08:37. | :08:41. | |
that are getting a good wage is Stormont got off their backsides | :08:41. | :08:45. | |
and started talking to the people on the ground that put them where | :08:45. | :08:49. | |
they are. The City Hall process was peaceful but others were not. | :08:49. | :08:55. | |
cost of policing this is more than �2 million and tonight that bill | :08:55. | :09:00. | |
has just gone up. There are 20 police fear caused here, dozens of | :09:00. | :09:06. | |
riot police officers, and this is just one part of the city. -- of | :09:06. | :09:13. | |
police vehicles. There are allegations that the UVF have | :09:13. | :09:16. | |
orchestrated the violence and encouraged young people to join in. | :09:16. | :09:22. | |
I have seen over the weekend young people, 10 or 11, 14 or 15, in | :09:22. | :09:29. | |
large numbers without parental control, without any direction and | :09:29. | :09:33. | |
I am deeply saddened by that and I think we all are. Since the | :09:33. | :09:38. | |
protests started, almost 100 people have been arrested and more than 60 | :09:38. | :09:47. | |
police officers have been injured. Tonight those totals are rising. | :09:47. | :09:50. | |
A woman from Cardiff who beat her son to death for failing to learn | :09:50. | :09:56. | |
passages from the Koran has been jailed for a minimum of 17 years. | :09:56. | :10:00. | |
Sara Ege killed her son Yaseen in July, 2010, and then set fire to | :10:00. | :10:06. | |
his body. A seven-year-old child, defenceless | :10:06. | :10:11. | |
against his mother's rage. Yaseen is remembered as an intelligent boy | :10:11. | :10:15. | |
who did everything to try and please his parents. But nothing | :10:15. | :10:25. | |
could satisfy Sara's obsession with him memorising the Koran. In court | :10:25. | :10:31. | |
she sobbed and bowed her head. She collapsed to the floor as the | :10:31. | :10:34. | |
letter from the dock. The judge said that on the day of his death, | :10:34. | :10:38. | |
Yaseen was kept home from school to dedicate himself to his studies of | :10:38. | :10:42. | |
the Koran. He added that on that day, Yaseen must have failed in | :10:43. | :10:45. | |
some way because I am satisfied that it was that failure that was | :10:45. | :10:51. | |
the trigger for the beating. His body was discovered by fire crews | :10:51. | :10:56. | |
called to the family's home. His death had seemed to be a tragic | :10:56. | :10:59. | |
accident warned by friends and neighbours. But his body had been | :10:59. | :11:05. | |
set alight by his mother. She tried to hide his injuries. From the | :11:05. | :11:10. | |
outside, Sara Ege appeared to be a devoted mother. Yaseen, according | :11:10. | :11:14. | |
to his teacher, seemed to be a happy and obedient son. Behind | :11:14. | :11:18. | |
closed doors, he endured months of physical violence. The attacks | :11:18. | :11:28. | |
became worse when Yaseen failed to memorise long sections of the Koran, | :11:28. | :11:33. | |
but learning sections of the text is part of religious instruction. | :11:33. | :11:36. | |
Yaseen was forced to go much further. It is tragic the pressure | :11:36. | :11:45. | |
at the mother has put on the Sun and taken his life. It is not a | :11:45. | :11:53. | |
reflection on the community, the children, the parents at the | :11:53. | :11:57. | |
Madrasa or the mosque. A serious case review has found that there | :11:57. | :12:02. | |
were reports of domestic abuse in the family but Yaseen's death could | :12:02. | :12:07. | |
not have been prevented. Sara Ege was driven from court to serve a | :12:07. | :12:11. | |
minimum of 17 years in jail. The judge said she had been a devoted | :12:11. | :12:18. | |
mother who had abused the pressures relationship with her son. -- | :12:18. | :12:22. | |
precious relationship. A senior police officer has gone on | :12:22. | :12:25. | |
trial offering to sell information to the News of the World about the | :12:25. | :12:30. | |
phone hacking inquiry at Scotland Yard. A poor cows lamb is the first | :12:30. | :12:40. | |
:12:40. | :12:46. | ||
person to go on trial April -- able cows lamb. | :12:46. | :12:56. | |
Five men have gone on trial in India following the gang rape that | :12:56. | :13:02. | |
has shaken the country. It is the crime that has shaken | :13:02. | :13:07. | |
India. Today the five accused came to court for the first time in a | :13:07. | :13:14. | |
test of the authority's response. Delhi police were out in force with | :13:14. | :13:18. | |
anger still simmering over the rape of the 23 year-old who later died | :13:18. | :13:22. | |
of her injuries. Their actions are also under the spotlight as never | :13:22. | :13:28. | |
before. The Government is promising a quick trial in you, fast-track | :13:28. | :13:33. | |
courts, trying to ride out the growing media storm. But there are | :13:33. | :13:37. | |
doubts over the New Court after a chaotic start. The magistrate has | :13:37. | :13:41. | |
ordered a closed session for the accused to hear the charges against | :13:41. | :13:46. | |
them of rape and murder. Still recovering from his injuries, the | :13:46. | :13:50. | |
friend with the woman the night of the attack has told the BBC how she | :13:50. | :14:00. | |
:14:00. | :14:01. | ||
Even when she was struggling for life in hospital, she wanted to | :14:01. | :14:05. | |
live. I want to make sure this never happens to anyone else. | :14:05. | :14:10. | |
had been weeks of protest after the savage attack of the woman, whose | :14:10. | :14:15. | |
name is still being withheld, but the government look out of touch | :14:15. | :14:18. | |
with the fast changing nation. They couldn't be a more poignant place | :14:18. | :14:23. | |
for this to be happening - just across from the cinema where the | :14:23. | :14:27. | |
woman and her friend went to see a movie on that fateful night before | :14:27. | :14:33. | |
riding home. More than three weeks later, after the outcry this has | :14:33. | :14:38. | |
provoked, it is India itself that now finds itself on trial. In a | :14:38. | :14:44. | |
suburb, signs of house low change maybe. The authorities and their | :14:44. | :14:47. | |
attitudes are being challenged after another woman in her 20s was | :14:47. | :14:51. | |
found dead in what is also suspected gang rape. She was on her | :14:51. | :14:55. | |
way home from her job at the clothes factory, but when her | :14:56. | :15:03. | |
father first reported she was missing, police didn't listen. | :15:03. | :15:07. | |
TRANSLATION: They were rude and said she had probably gone off with | :15:07. | :15:13. | |
a man. Don't worry, they said, she will probably come back. Another | :15:13. | :15:17. | |
family grieving now, and many are asking if anything will really | :15:17. | :15:22. | |
change when the anger dies down. Coming up on tonight's programme: | :15:22. | :15:24. | |
The veteran broadcaster Stuart Hall denies charges of sexually | :15:24. | :15:34. | |
:15:34. | :15:36. | ||
assaulting girls in the 1970s and President Obama has infuriated his | :15:36. | :15:39. | |
political opponents in his choice of a new defence secretary. A | :15:39. | :15:42. | |
number of prominent Republicans say they will oppose the appointment of | :15:42. | :15:44. | |
Chuck Hagel, a decorated Vietnam veteran and former Republican | :15:44. | :15:51. | |
senator, because of his views on Israel and Iran. There's also | :15:51. | :15:55. | |
controversy about the nomination of a new head of the CIA, as Mark | :15:55. | :16:04. | |
Mardell reports. This is the man President Obama wants to lead the | :16:04. | :16:07. | |
largest military force the world has ever known, a former soldier | :16:07. | :16:14. | |
who knows the cost of war. He knows what is not an abstraction. He | :16:14. | :16:18. | |
understands that Sandy young Americans to fight and lead in the | :16:18. | :16:23. | |
dirt and mud, that is something we only do when it is absolutely | :16:23. | :16:30. | |
necessary. He used to be a Republican senator but he is a | :16:30. | :16:35. | |
provocative pick. I will always do my best, I will do my best for our | :16:35. | :16:41. | |
country, for those I represent at the Pentagon and, and for our | :16:41. | :16:46. | |
citizens. Mr President, I will always give you my honest and | :16:46. | :16:51. | |
informed Council. If he served in Vietnam, twice wounded, twice | :16:51. | :16:55. | |
decorated. He says he speaks for those who saw their friends get | :16:55. | :17:01. | |
their heads blown off. He criticised the handling of the Iraq | :17:01. | :17:05. | |
war, calling it the most dangerous foreign policy blunder in this | :17:05. | :17:10. | |
country since Vietnam. He visited the Middle East with President | :17:10. | :17:14. | |
Obama, they worked well together. The TV campaign started against him | :17:14. | :17:20. | |
when his nomination was just a rumour. Chuck Hagel is not a | :17:20. | :17:25. | |
responsible option. His history has raised the barrage of questions. | :17:25. | :17:29. | |
His opponents claim he is anti- Semitic, quoting him saying the | :17:29. | :17:33. | |
Jewish lobby intimidates a lot of people in Congress. He once opposed | :17:33. | :17:38. | |
the appointment of an ambassador, criticising him for being openly | :17:38. | :17:47. | |
aggressively gay. He said military action against Iran was not | :17:47. | :17:51. | |
responsible option. Senators have to vote before he gets the job and | :17:51. | :17:58. | |
it is by no means automatic. I like Chuck Hagel, two purple hearts, but | :17:58. | :18:03. | |
quite frankly he is out of the mainstream of thinking on most | :18:03. | :18:09. | |
issues. President Obama has chosen the man he once regardless of what | :18:09. | :18:14. | |
the Republicans think, lining up yet another conflict with Congress. | :18:14. | :18:16. | |
The broadcaster Stuart Hall has appeared in court charged with | :18:16. | :18:19. | |
indecent assault involving three girls in the 1970s and 1980s. Mr | :18:19. | :18:26. | |
Hall, who's 83, denies all the charges. Our correspondent Judith | :18:26. | :18:32. | |
Moritz reports from Preston Magistrate's Court. This is the | :18:32. | :18:35. | |
first time that Stuart Hall has appeared in court to face the | :18:35. | :18:40. | |
charges that were brought against him in December. The 83 year-old | :18:40. | :18:44. | |
broadcaster came to Preston magistrates court, where he | :18:44. | :18:48. | |
appeared under his full name of James Stuart Hall. During the | :18:48. | :18:53. | |
hearing, which lasted for less than 15 minutes, he listened intently as | :18:53. | :19:03. | |
:19:03. | :19:04. | ||
the charges against him were read out. He pleaded not guilty. It is | :19:04. | :19:11. | |
alleged that Stuart Hall indecently assaulted three girls aged nine, 13, | :19:11. | :19:16. | |
and 16 or 17 at the time. He is accused of touching two of the | :19:16. | :19:21. | |
girls and kissing one of them. Stuart Hall made his name | :19:21. | :19:28. | |
presenting the game show It's A Knockout in the 1970s and 1980s. He | :19:28. | :19:32. | |
also presented other news and entertainment programmes, and most | :19:32. | :19:36. | |
recently has been a football reporter for Radio 5 Live. He is | :19:36. | :19:41. | |
not working for the BBC whilst legal action against him is ongoing. | :19:41. | :19:46. | |
His case was passed from the magistrates to the Crown Court in | :19:46. | :19:52. | |
Preston. He was released on bail, and told to appear there on 16th | :19:52. | :19:56. | |
April. Lord Strathclyde is standing down | :19:56. | :19:59. | |
as the leader of the Conservative Party in the House of Lords. He was | :19:59. | :20:02. | |
one of David Cameron's most experienced Cabinet members whose | :20:02. | :20:04. | |
first ministerial post was in Margaret Thatcher's government. | :20:04. | :20:07. | |
Lord Strathclyde says he wants to pursue a career in business, and | :20:07. | :20:12. | |
will be replaced by Lord Hill. Hundreds of people have held a | :20:12. | :20:14. | |
rally calling for press freedom outside a newspaper office in | :20:14. | :20:18. | |
southern China. Journalists there are on strike in a rare protest | :20:18. | :20:22. | |
against government censorship. The row was sparked when the paper's | :20:22. | :20:27. | |
New Year message calling for reform was changed by propaganda officials. | :20:27. | :20:30. | |
The protest is now being seen as an early test of China's new | :20:30. | :20:40. | |
leadership. From Beijing, Martin Patience reports. They laid flowers | :20:40. | :20:46. | |
are outside the newspaper's office, and sang in support of the striking | :20:46. | :20:51. | |
journalists. It is the first walkout by staff from a major | :20:51. | :20:56. | |
Chinese newspaper in more than 20 years, but a new generation is | :20:56. | :21:00. | |
challenging the old way of doing things. Many want greater freedom | :21:00. | :21:08. | |
of expression. This woman says the demonstrators share a common cause | :21:08. | :21:12. | |
with the journalists. If we don't support them, then no one will | :21:12. | :21:18. | |
speak up for us when something goes wrong, she says. All Chinese media | :21:18. | :21:22. | |
is censored. The Southern Weekend however has a reputation for | :21:22. | :21:27. | |
pushing the boundaries, making it China's most respected newspaper. | :21:27. | :21:31. | |
But when propaganda officials last week changed an editorial calling | :21:31. | :21:36. | |
for political reform to one praising the Communist Party, | :21:36. | :21:40. | |
journalists said it was the final straw. In an open letter they said | :21:40. | :21:47. | |
more than 1000 stories were sense of last year, making for an endless | :21:47. | :21:52. | |
routine of on justifiable censorship. The unrest at the | :21:52. | :21:56. | |
newspaper is an early test for China's new leader, Xi Jinping, who | :21:56. | :22:06. | |
was facing calls for change just two months into the job. | :22:06. | :22:11. | |
administration is interested in liberalising certain things but we | :22:11. | :22:20. | |
have not seen any intention of liberalising the media. | :22:20. | :22:26. | |
decision is likely to give the clearest sign yet of how China's | :22:26. | :22:31. | |
new leaders will run this country. The Barcelona and Argentina forward | :22:31. | :22:34. | |
Lionel Messi has won a record fourth Ballon d'Or award, given to | :22:34. | :22:38. | |
the world's best player. The 25- year-old scored 91 goals last | :22:38. | :22:40. | |
season, an all-time record, and took the honour ahead of Real | :22:40. | :22:50. | |
Madrid's Cristiano Ronaldo and Barcelona team mate Andres Iniesta. | :22:50. | :22:53. | |
Britain's oldest man has died at the age of 110 years and 63 days. | :22:53. | :22:56. | |
Reg Dean, a former church minister and army chaplain, lived through | :22:56. | :23:02. | |
two world wars and experienced life under 24 British prime ministers. | :23:02. | :23:05. | |
As Robert Hall reports, Mr Dean enjoyed writing and singing, and | :23:05. | :23:15. | |
:23:15. | :23:19. | ||
even took up painting at the age of # Lazy bones... Birthday tribute to | :23:20. | :23:24. | |
the man who claimed the secret of a long and happy life was laziness. | :23:24. | :23:28. | |
In the case of Reg Dean you might think there was little time to be | :23:28. | :23:36. | |
idle. He was born on fourth November, 1902. Britain had just | :23:36. | :23:41. | |
witnessed the end of the Victorian age. Young men were still fighting | :23:41. | :23:47. | |
and dying in the second of the Boer Wars, and one man's extravagant | :23:48. | :23:53. | |
beard was familiar to sports fans as WG Grace sealed his reputation | :23:53. | :23:59. | |
at the crease. Reg Dean soared 24 prime ministers come and go in a | :23:59. | :24:03. | |
world of constant change. He feared he would not survive his service as | :24:03. | :24:08. | |
a military chaplain in Burma but told friends he attributed his long | :24:08. | :24:11. | |
life to a mysterious brown medicine given to him by an Indian doctor | :24:11. | :24:19. | |
who told him it would enable him to live forever. He certainly had | :24:20. | :24:26. | |
staying power. In his 80s, he founded the Dalesman male voice | :24:26. | :24:36. | |
:24:36. | :24:37. | ||
choir, the guest of honour at his 190 birthday. I will be here next | :24:37. | :24:46. | |
year, maybe, and the year after, and the year after. You never know. | :24:46. | :24:51. | |
The Reverend Reg Dean was not able to attend his 110th Party so it | :24:51. | :24:55. | |
came to him too. Perhaps that magical Alexia had finally lost its | :24:55. | :25:02. | |
power, but his family said he never lost his sense of humour or his | :25:02. | :25:06. | |
concern for others. He was a good man to the core and he had a strong | :25:06. | :25:10. | |
belief you should always look for the best in people. He always | :25:10. | :25:13. | |
believed that if you did good things for other people, you should | :25:13. | :25:21. | |
do it not for a reward, but just to help. Reg Dean was certainly never | :25:21. | :25:27. | |
lazy. A link with our past whose abiding hope was that he had left | :25:27. | :25:32. | |
the world are slightly better place than when he arrived. | :25:32. | :25:35. |
