Hello, tonight, cracking down on prescription addiction. The | :00:07. | :00:11. | |
painkillers that can do more harm than good. Yes, I'm addicted to them | :00:12. | :00:20. | |
now. They persuade you how to get on with them but they don't persuade | :00:21. | :00:24. | |
you how to get off them. I just don't like the person I've become. | :00:25. | :00:28. | |
Also, what is it like going back to work after 30 years? I want my | :00:29. | :00:38. | |
partner to die proud of me. And love at first squirt for one man | :00:39. | :00:43. | |
and his eight legged friend. You can tell she's interested but not at all | :00:44. | :00:51. | |
worried! Hello, welcome to Inside Out with | :00:52. | :00:53. | |
investigations from where you live. First tonight, we look into how | :00:54. | :01:08. | |
doctors in the south-west are trying to avert a public health disaster. | :01:09. | :01:13. | |
The number of prescriptions for some of the strongest and most dangerous | :01:14. | :01:17. | |
drugs have soared, but what is being done to help people come often? | :01:18. | :01:24. | |
Every morning, 27-year-old Isabel starts her day the same way. I have | :01:25. | :01:32. | |
seven, eight years, probably longer. seven, eight years, probably longer. | :01:33. | :01:37. | |
And I've been in and out of hospital forever, it seems. Her condition has | :01:38. | :01:43. | |
proved difficult to diagnose, but for the pain, she's been prescribed | :01:44. | :01:50. | |
a strong drug. Oxycodone. At first I thought they were fantastic. I | :01:51. | :01:55. | |
thought they would be able to help. But two years on and her | :01:56. | :02:00. | |
quality-of-life is at rock bottom. I can't work because I'm constantly | :02:01. | :02:04. | |
phoning in sick. You just sit and stare at walls. Nothing is there. | :02:05. | :02:10. | |
You've got no sort of emotion or... Anything. It's scary. Over the next | :02:11. | :02:17. | |
two months, Isabel hopes to quit the painkillers that have cut her off | :02:18. | :02:21. | |
emotionally from her husband, Steve, and their children. I just don't | :02:22. | :02:26. | |
like the person I've become. I'm really determined and I'm determined | :02:27. | :02:30. | |
to be off them so I can be with the kids. What will they see when you | :02:31. | :02:36. | |
are off the tablets? Who will they see? They will see their mum. A | :02:37. | :02:43. | |
Mondays missed out on. Isabel's painkillers are opiates. There are | :02:44. | :02:47. | |
many different types either synthetically made or derived from | :02:48. | :02:52. | |
the opium poppy plant, as is heroin. Traditionally, they've been used to | :02:53. | :02:56. | |
treat cancer or tissue pain, for example, after an operation. But | :02:57. | :03:02. | |
after the last 20 years, prescriptions for these have risen | :03:03. | :03:07. | |
dramatically. Now doctors believe they are not very effective | :03:08. | :03:11. | |
long-term pain and can even make it worse. The trouble is, over time, | :03:12. | :03:16. | |
patients can become dependent, or in the worst addicted. | :03:17. | :03:19. | |
Could you stop them tomorrow if you Could you stop them tomorrow if you | :03:20. | :03:23. | |
wanted to? No. I couldn't just stop them. So, yes, I'm addicted to them | :03:24. | :03:30. | |
now. They persuade you to get on them but they don't persuade you | :03:31. | :03:35. | |
hard enough to get off them. But that is changing. Today Isabel has | :03:36. | :03:39. | |
come to her local pain clinic, where they are trialling a new approach. | :03:40. | :03:46. | |
So this is a new contract we've been developing to help people understand | :03:47. | :03:50. | |
about the benefits and the risks of taking opiate medication. Consultant | :03:51. | :03:57. | |
psychiatrist Adrian Flynn and his colleagues have developed a sort of | :03:58. | :04:00. | |
road map to coming off the drugs. It will soon be rolled out across the | :04:01. | :04:05. | |
county. It contains a contract to be signed between patient and GP. The | :04:06. | :04:11. | |
contract itself enables you and your GP to work together to judge whether | :04:12. | :04:14. | |
or not the medicines you are taking are having the desired effect, or | :04:15. | :04:19. | |
whether any of the side-effects or problems we know can happen with the | :04:20. | :04:24. | |
medications starting to creep in. I've been having the sweats and I'm | :04:25. | :04:27. | |
getting quite frustrated and angry easily. The contract isn't legally | :04:28. | :04:34. | |
binding but it is a written commitment. Not all patients are | :04:35. | :04:39. | |
willing to reduce their medication. I think sometimes there's some | :04:40. | :04:41. | |
conflict between the patient and health care system because health | :04:42. | :04:47. | |
hasn't given them the answers they wanted. So were we turn around and | :04:48. | :04:52. | |
say, the thing you rely on most may be making it worse, that's a really | :04:53. | :04:57. | |
difficult conversation to have. The patient contract was developed after | :04:58. | :05:01. | |
clinicians noticed a small group of patients with long-term pain kept | :05:02. | :05:03. | |
being admitted into the Royal Cornwall Hospital. What we noticed | :05:04. | :05:09. | |
was that the amount of opioid used intravenously on one particular ward | :05:10. | :05:12. | |
was 20 times higher than it would have been on comparable wards. The | :05:13. | :05:17. | |
the drugs, they no longer worked. In the drugs, they no longer worked. In | :05:18. | :05:23. | |
fact, they made the pain worse. Many of the patients with long-term | :05:24. | :05:26. | |
painful conditions were describing painful conditions were describing | :05:27. | :05:30. | |
the same kind of features in how they presented and how their lives | :05:31. | :05:35. | |
were as I had seen when working in a drug addiction service. And that was | :05:36. | :05:36. | |
a real concern. Jay has repeatedly end up in | :05:37. | :05:57. | |
hospital because of his painkillers. He suffers with chronic pain after | :05:58. | :06:04. | |
breaking his back 25 years ago. Without the drugs, I would be in bed | :06:05. | :06:09. | |
24 hours a day and I would be in so much pain I would be rolling around | :06:10. | :06:14. | |
the bed crying. Over the years, he has been prescribed a higher and | :06:15. | :06:17. | |
higher dose. Now it is dangerously high. I would look at the positives | :06:18. | :06:25. | |
that it does not the Ned -- the negatives, to be fair. But the | :06:26. | :06:30. | |
negatives have nearly killed him. The medication built up and made me | :06:31. | :06:38. | |
unconscious, so when the carers came in on occasion, they couldn't wake | :06:39. | :06:42. | |
me, they couldn't talk to me. The next thing I remember was being | :06:43. | :06:47. | |
woken up in hospital after they had put the reversing drug in to what | :06:48. | :06:53. | |
the opiates had done. And basically when I've had too much opiate. Does | :06:54. | :07:00. | |
that scare you? It doesn't scare me any more because I know it's part of | :07:01. | :07:06. | |
my pain relief. But what if no one found you? If no one found me, | :07:07. | :07:10. | |
then... The chances are, I could be dead. His GP is Doctor Tamsin | :07:11. | :07:20. | |
Anderson. She has called him in for an appointment and there's going to | :07:21. | :07:26. | |
be some tough talk. Ultimately I have a prescribing responsibility | :07:27. | :07:29. | |
for the medication I give him, and so I will be having a conversation | :07:30. | :07:34. | |
that says I do not want to continue to prescribe this drug at this level | :07:35. | :07:39. | |
to him. I don't think it's safe and the responsibility lies with me, so | :07:40. | :07:44. | |
at the end of the day, it's up to me to say no. | :07:45. | :07:49. | |
Thank you for coming in to see me today, Jay. I wanted to talk to you | :07:50. | :07:57. | |
about your medication again. The medication? Yes. It leads to pain. | :07:58. | :08:04. | |
But what we are actually saying is, you are still in pain, aren't you? | :08:05. | :08:11. | |
In spite of the medication. The real concern is the fact that I know what | :08:12. | :08:16. | |
it's going to be like. When all my medication is taken away. There's no | :08:17. | :08:21. | |
way I can survive. We'll take it at your pace. But I am going to keep | :08:22. | :08:28. | |
encouraging you down. And you know I drive a tough bargain! OK? But we'll | :08:29. | :08:34. | |
work on it together. I trust you, so I'll give it a go. Thank you, Jay. | :08:35. | :08:42. | |
Thank you very much. Jay doesn't sign on the dotted line but he does | :08:43. | :08:46. | |
take the contract away with him. It has been six weeks since Isabel | :08:47. | :08:49. | |
started her withdrawal and she's doing well. | :08:50. | :08:54. | |
I started reducing my tablets. It's becoming quite hard. I'm feeling | :08:55. | :09:02. | |
very anxious, sweaty. The past week, I would say, I've got a lot better. | :09:03. | :09:08. | |
I feel better in myself. I feel more happy. Coming off the tablets has | :09:09. | :09:11. | |
made me obviously think more about what I need to do in life and be | :09:12. | :09:15. | |
able to spend more time with the kids. And she's in less pain. | :09:16. | :09:26. | |
Hi, Isabel, Steve. How are you? How are you doing? Really good, thanks. | :09:27. | :09:32. | |
Philly of the medication. So no turning back? Absolutely not. I'd | :09:33. | :09:36. | |
never go back to them. I'm a lot happier now I'm off them. | :09:37. | :09:42. | |
For Jay, it's going to be a much longer journey. So, how has gone? | :09:43. | :09:52. | |
Yeah, all right. But there's still a lot of questions. I still feel that | :09:53. | :10:00. | |
they are the better option for me. And I promised to give it ago so I | :10:01. | :10:05. | |
will. And with the help of his doctor, he has started to cut back | :10:06. | :10:10. | |
on the opioids. I've signed the contract and for the years I've been | :10:11. | :10:14. | |
on them, it is going to take a hell of a long time to come off them. | :10:15. | :10:19. | |
Cornwall is now reviewing a number of patients on high doses of | :10:20. | :10:23. | |
painkillers. For his part, Jay has already made a brave decision and | :10:24. | :10:25. | |
one that might save him his life. New research shows the octopus may | :10:26. | :10:38. | |
well be far more intelligent than scientists previously thought. One | :10:39. | :10:42. | |
person who has always believed that is Plymouth marine biologist Alex | :10:43. | :10:47. | |
Harvey. So when we told her we had found some amazing octopus action | :10:48. | :10:51. | |
off the south-west coast, she just had to investigate. | :10:52. | :10:56. | |
My name is Alex Harvey and I work for the marine biological | :10:57. | :11:01. | |
association. I love my job because I get to come out here and work with | :11:02. | :11:06. | |
the most amazing creatures, no matter whatever the weather. | :11:07. | :11:09. | |
While I'm fascinated by all our native sea life, I do have a | :11:10. | :11:16. | |
particular favourite. An animal so unlike us that it's almost alien. | :11:17. | :11:23. | |
Eight legs, three hearts and, in my view, a massive personality. | :11:24. | :11:29. | |
Yes, it's the octopus. I just love them. Today we are out on Plymouth | :11:30. | :11:32. | |
Sound hoping to catch some native specimens. | :11:33. | :11:39. | |
We've had some success so now it's time to get these guys back to the | :11:40. | :11:44. | |
lab. Monitoring our sea life helps us | :11:45. | :11:47. | |
understand what is happening to our seas. The octopus we usually see off | :11:48. | :11:52. | |
the south coast is the curled octopus, and while many species of | :11:53. | :11:57. | |
sea life are struggling, with rising sea temperatures, the octopus is | :11:58. | :11:59. | |
thriving. We want to understand why. What we | :12:00. | :12:04. | |
see straightaway is an increase in feeding and growth when the | :12:05. | :12:07. | |
temperature is just a degree or two higher. This makes sense because | :12:08. | :12:11. | |
they are fast-growing but cold-blooded animals so any increase | :12:12. | :12:14. | |
in temperature will automatically result in an increase in metabolism. | :12:15. | :12:18. | |
What we want to find out is what behaviour changes they make to deal | :12:19. | :12:23. | |
going to hunt or switch to a more going to hunt or switch to a more | :12:24. | :12:26. | |
calorific parade? This is a relative of the octopus. | :12:27. | :12:33. | |
The cuttlefish. These babies are just five centimetres but they can | :12:34. | :12:37. | |
grow up to 65 centimetres long. It is feeding time for these | :12:38. | :12:42. | |
cuttlefish. I've trained them to take small pieces of fish, so I'm | :12:43. | :12:46. | |
moving the fish around to grab their attention. Normally they only attack | :12:47. | :12:50. | |
moving prey. That's how they recognise it is food. Cuttlefish are | :12:51. | :12:56. | |
absolutely voracious predators. They hunt pretty much all the time. And | :12:57. | :13:01. | |
as well as their tentacles, they've got this amazing beak, almost like | :13:02. | :13:06. | |
that of a parrot, in two parts. They use that to inject a neurotoxin into | :13:07. | :13:09. | |
their prey which kills them in seconds. | :13:10. | :13:15. | |
I could watch them all day! But what I'm really interested in is the | :13:16. | :13:24. | |
octopus in its natural habitat. In Dorset, there's a man I very much | :13:25. | :13:31. | |
want to meet. Local diver Colin Garrett has regularly seen at least | :13:32. | :13:36. | |
one octopus of the 80 mile spit at this beach. What's more, on his | :13:37. | :13:41. | |
night dives, when the octopus is mode -- most active, he has filmed | :13:42. | :13:48. | |
it. Colin has been diving and filming in | :13:49. | :13:51. | |
these waters most of his life, yet he had never seen an octopus, let | :13:52. | :13:55. | |
alone managed to film one. Until now. As you can see, initially it | :13:56. | :14:01. | |
wants to swim away but then it settles down with our presence | :14:02. | :14:07. | |
there. This footage is amazing. How did you get it? Friend of mine had | :14:08. | :14:13. | |
reported seeing an octopus and we went diving a few days after that at | :14:14. | :14:18. | |
night. And unbelievably, we came across the same octopus. How can you | :14:19. | :14:25. | |
tell it was the same one? My partner named him Hank, he has one are | :14:26. | :14:31. | |
missing, so he's quite easy to identify! You can really see his | :14:32. | :14:36. | |
missing arm. And you saw him in every place -- the same place every | :14:37. | :14:41. | |
night? Thereabouts. We would go to the same place and within a few | :14:42. | :14:47. | |
minutes we would find him. That's really interesting because we don't | :14:48. | :14:51. | |
know much about territoriality with octopus. We do think they have a | :14:52. | :14:55. | |
home area that they patrol but there's almost no way of gauging | :14:56. | :14:59. | |
this in the wild, unfortunately, unless you are as fortunate as you | :15:00. | :15:04. | |
and get to film them at night. This is really valuable for us. There you | :15:05. | :15:12. | |
go. Not bothered by our presence at all. Not at all. Especially to feed | :15:13. | :15:15. | |
like that. That's great. That's wonderful. | :15:16. | :15:21. | |
We've just seen him feed there. That's quite rare to film in the | :15:22. | :15:25. | |
wild because these are quite shy animals, so to capture that on film | :15:26. | :15:28. | |
is absolutely amazing. And Colin's remarkable video shows | :15:29. | :15:34. | |
more about this shy creature. This is wonderful because you can even | :15:35. | :15:37. | |
see the Ridder falls under here. These ourselves which reflect light, | :15:38. | :15:46. | |
creating an iridescent blow that can distract predators. If they are | :15:47. | :15:49. | |
swimming in the sea and they are viewed from underneath, the cells | :15:50. | :15:54. | |
will block out their silhouette so they become almost invisible. This | :15:55. | :15:59. | |
is really wonderful. Wonderful footage. And all of this, Alex, is | :16:00. | :16:05. | |
filmed just out here in the Bay. That's brilliant. Incredible to | :16:06. | :16:12. | |
think that we have native octopus patrolling the sea bed just off the | :16:13. | :16:18. | |
beach. As most of us will never see one in the wild, I've come to the | :16:19. | :16:21. | |
sea life centre in Weymouth to meet a particularly friendly octopus that | :16:22. | :16:29. | |
will soon be on show to the public. Luckily, I get to go behind the | :16:30. | :16:33. | |
scenes. Meeting me is chief octopus Wrangler Phil. In the heart of the | :16:34. | :16:37. | |
building are the tanks where he looks after the octopus. How long | :16:38. | :16:42. | |
have you had them for? Just over eight months. Like me, Phil has | :16:43. | :16:49. | |
found each octopus has its own distinct personality and his newest | :16:50. | :16:54. | |
one is very friendly. So this is one of my newest arrivals. He's very | :16:55. | :16:59. | |
grabby! Especially for such a young octopus. It normally takes a couple | :17:00. | :17:01. | |
of months to build up this sort of of months to build up this sort of | :17:02. | :17:05. | |
trust between a keeper and an octopus. But she loves it! Not | :17:06. | :17:11. | |
worried about holding on. Or throwing lots of water at us! As you | :17:12. | :17:17. | |
can see! What is it that you love about them? Is a wild animal, you | :17:18. | :17:21. | |
expect them to run away when they see you, but they are just so | :17:22. | :17:25. | |
loving. So it's just love at first sight, almost. You put a finger in | :17:26. | :17:29. | |
and they just grab you. She clearly knows you! Do you find | :17:30. | :17:43. | |
they have individual personalities? Absolutely. Previous ones I've had | :17:44. | :17:48. | |
will come up every so often or just for food. This girl likes to squirt | :17:49. | :17:53. | |
all of the time. If I try and leave her alone, as I've done after | :17:54. | :17:59. | |
playtime, she tends to squirt till I come back, so I can be here for a | :18:00. | :18:03. | |
good 20, 30 minutes till she's happy. And then I can leave her. You | :18:04. | :18:08. | |
can see by her colour at the moment that she is quite interested in what | :18:09. | :18:12. | |
we're doing. If she was worried or scared, she would be a dark colour, | :18:13. | :18:16. | |
like dark red or even close to black. But with the colours going on | :18:17. | :18:20. | |
at the moment, you can tell she's interested but not at all worried. | :18:21. | :18:26. | |
Hey! She's absolutely amazing and it really goes to show the range of | :18:27. | :18:29. | |
personalities that naturally occur in a species like this. Personality | :18:30. | :18:35. | |
is something we think of as being distinctly human but research is | :18:36. | :18:38. | |
starting to show animals such as octopus and cuttlefish, and even | :18:39. | :18:44. | |
sharks, they have distinct personalities we can test and see | :18:45. | :18:54. | |
throughout their lifetimes. Leaving Phil and his octopus behind, | :18:55. | :18:58. | |
it's time for me to return the specimens we caught in Plymouth | :18:59. | :19:02. | |
Sound. Octopus is only live a couple of | :19:03. | :19:06. | |
years so it's time for us to return these back to sea. We will try to | :19:07. | :19:11. | |
put them back in exactly the same location we found them. So, time to | :19:12. | :19:15. | |
go, guys. I feel very privileged to work with | :19:16. | :19:19. | |
these beguiling creatures, and I hope I've given you just a glimpse | :19:20. | :19:24. | |
of why I find these small animals with very big personalities so | :19:25. | :19:25. | |
fascinating. It can be tough going back to work | :19:26. | :19:42. | |
after a career break, but what if that break was for 30 years? We've | :19:43. | :19:47. | |
been following one Devon man who is determined to rejoin the world of | :19:48. | :19:50. | |
employment after decades on benefits. | :19:51. | :19:57. | |
By anyone's standards, John Clarke has had a colourful life. I was a | :19:58. | :20:08. | |
really nasty person. Nasty, dangerous criminal that would hurt | :20:09. | :20:11. | |
and destroy anything and anyone to get what I wanted. Most of my time | :20:12. | :20:16. | |
was spent doing criminal activities to fund my drug habit. But he is now | :20:17. | :20:23. | |
clean, and after three jobless decades, he wants to work. My mum's | :20:24. | :20:31. | |
going to die knowing that I got it right. I want her to die proud of | :20:32. | :20:37. | |
me. But after so long out of the system, it's not going to be easy. | :20:38. | :20:45. | |
Hi, hello? This is Lucy... So he needs help. This council backed | :20:46. | :20:56. | |
course could be the answer. A huge challenge, because you are stepping | :20:57. | :21:00. | |
way out of your comfort zone. We'll have anxieties about meeting new | :21:01. | :21:04. | |
people, possibly, but when you are worried they will judge you, you | :21:05. | :21:07. | |
won't have the communication skills, those are big barriers. -- we all | :21:08. | :21:16. | |
have anxieties. Lizzy set up this course to help increase | :21:17. | :21:20. | |
people'sconfidence and self belief. If you've been on the streets for a | :21:21. | :21:25. | |
while, if you had addiction, it can be fairly difficult after years of a | :21:26. | :21:30. | |
fairly chaotic lifestyle to get your head around catching buses and being | :21:31. | :21:36. | |
in a place at a certain time. Always been an addict. I no longer an | :21:37. | :21:42. | |
addict but I still feel that, they are the people in the workplace, and | :21:43. | :21:46. | |
I feel awkward stepping into that, because I'm stepping from one world | :21:47. | :21:53. | |
into another. Jon's friend Ali Chatman is also job-hunting. If Jon | :21:54. | :22:00. | |
takes a job and it doesn't work out, he could be left with less money | :22:01. | :22:05. | |
than before. It scares me to let go of my benefits because that's what I | :22:06. | :22:09. | |
survive on, to then step into a world where somebody could say, we | :22:10. | :22:13. | |
no longer want you, you're not good enough. I'm worried that would | :22:14. | :22:18. | |
absolutely crush me. John and Al have been honing their work skills | :22:19. | :22:21. | |
as volunteers, helping other recovering addicts. The biggest | :22:22. | :22:28. | |
anxiety people have is, are they going to be able to do it? Can they | :22:29. | :22:33. | |
meet the hours? Are they going to be strong enough? Are they going to be | :22:34. | :22:36. | |
the person the employer expects them to be? So the main thing for | :22:37. | :22:42. | |
interview preparation is what? What is the main thing we need to do? | :22:43. | :22:47. | |
Research the role, guessed? Today the job-seekers are learning how to | :22:48. | :22:53. | |
mail an interview with help from formal Royal Marine and motivational | :22:54. | :22:57. | |
coach Worley Gibson. John, what I want you to do is stand behind | :22:58. | :23:02. | |
Melissa. Use this example with a handshake. How long does it take to | :23:03. | :23:05. | |
make a first impression? Does anybody know? It takes nine seconds. | :23:06. | :23:13. | |
Hi, how are you doing? Five seconds. It takes nine seconds to make a | :23:14. | :23:19. | |
first impression. Half of that is gone with a handshake. In any job | :23:20. | :23:24. | |
search, interview skills are key. But there's room for a bit of | :23:25. | :23:30. | |
creativity, too. Made in a few hours, this is. Do you like it? I | :23:31. | :23:38. | |
do! The group's main challenge is something everyone hates - public | :23:39. | :23:43. | |
speaking. Most people just don't like it because they don't like | :23:44. | :23:47. | |
being the focus of attention. Most people want to be the grey man and | :23:48. | :23:51. | |
we are showing these guys they are a lot better than that man and they | :23:52. | :23:56. | |
can come out of that comfort zone. A little bit nervous but looking | :23:57. | :24:01. | |
forward to it, actually. Thank you so much to everybody here. I'm going | :24:02. | :24:07. | |
to hand you over to rob now. I'm going to get these guys to talk | :24:08. | :24:12. | |
about it themselves, so without further ado, I'll get everyone to | :24:13. | :24:18. | |
introduce themselves. Hi, I'm Colin, I'm from Exmouth. I was homeless for | :24:19. | :24:23. | |
a while. We measure our success is as to whether we achieve our goals. | :24:24. | :24:28. | |
We are all going to get discriminated against at some point | :24:29. | :24:33. | |
in our lives. It can happen because of sex, race, gender, even | :24:34. | :24:38. | |
addiction. They absolutely nailed it. Absolutely superb, everyone of | :24:39. | :24:39. | |
them. It's two weeks into the job search | :24:40. | :24:52. | |
and Al has been hired as a support worker for vulnerable adults. Hello, | :24:53. | :25:00. | |
good to see you. And you. I'll stick the kettle on. She really deserves | :25:01. | :25:06. | |
it because she's really good at what she does and she is an amazing, | :25:07. | :25:10. | |
lively person, so it was really good to see. I was chuffed. A few weeks | :25:11. | :25:19. | |
later, and John gets his chance. When I went on that course, the next | :25:20. | :25:23. | |
interview I went to, I wasn't scared. Just not being scared made | :25:24. | :25:27. | |
such a difference in my interview because I was much more confident. | :25:28. | :25:33. | |
So for the first time in 30 years, he's clocking on. I'm really | :25:34. | :25:39. | |
nervous. It's quite a responsibility. But I'm also looking | :25:40. | :25:44. | |
forward to it. So mixed emotions. But John hasn't chosen an easy gig. | :25:45. | :25:48. | |
He'll be helping to manage a homeless shelter. For John coming in | :25:49. | :25:53. | |
here tonight, is going to be a challenge. There's a multitude of | :25:54. | :25:58. | |
issues from drugs, alcohol, mental health issues, and people are in a | :25:59. | :26:03. | |
bad way, so it's a really complicated environment with all | :26:04. | :26:08. | |
those challenges wrapped into one. John needs to keep everyone is safe | :26:09. | :26:12. | |
and provide support to those who need it. What about the dog? She can | :26:13. | :26:20. | |
go in as well? Have you had anything to eat today at all? John is hoping | :26:21. | :26:26. | |
to use what he's learned in the past to help give these guys a future. | :26:27. | :26:33. | |
You need to go home where you're safe. Right? This is not your world. | :26:34. | :26:37. | |
I've been in here and I'm out of it now and it hasn't changed. You've | :26:38. | :26:43. | |
got a good life. Don't get involved with this one. Years ago it was me | :26:44. | :26:49. | |
here as a client, and, you know, it's nice to be on the other side | :26:50. | :26:56. | |
and have that experience and also it just reminds me how far I've come. | :26:57. | :27:04. | |
Stay Out Of Jail card! Even when things are going smoothly, John is | :27:05. | :27:10. | |
always on alert. Not kicking you out but what I'm saying is I can do. | :27:11. | :27:15. | |
Take it outside. Take it up the road, all right? John feels he's | :27:16. | :27:28. | |
putting his past behind him. The tattooed they are going over is one | :27:29. | :27:33. | |
I had done in my bad days. It was done by a heroin addict. | :27:34. | :27:39. | |
No one can actually say to me I'm a bum any more. I feel I can hold my | :27:40. | :27:49. | |
head up and I have my money that I get that I earn. Brilliant. Your | :27:50. | :27:57. | |
amazing! Back at the shelter, Lizzie has come to see how John is getting | :27:58. | :28:02. | |
on. I am so proud of you, genuinely, genuinely proud. Thank you. You gave | :28:03. | :28:10. | |
us the opportunity to do certain courses and that all worked towards | :28:11. | :28:16. | |
that, so that worked. The living experience has helped me get the job | :28:17. | :28:23. | |
that I've got. Brilliant. I've taken something that was a real bad | :28:24. | :28:28. | |
negative into a positive. And I try to tell the people I work with that | :28:29. | :28:33. | |
it's doable. You can get out of that life, as hard as it looks. | :28:34. | :28:41. | |
Next week, the fishermen on drugs and out in the English Channel. The | :28:42. | :28:45. | |
job is dangerous enough as it is. Why make it far worse? That's next | :28:46. | :28:50. | |
Monday at 7:30pm. See you then. | :28:51. | :29:04. | |
Hello, I'm Riz Lateef with your 90-second update. | :29:05. | :29:06. | |
It's been described as the worst blunder in Oscars history - | :29:07. | :29:09. | |
when the wrong winner for best film was announced. | :29:10. | :29:11. | |
The stars of LaLa Land were accepting the award | :29:12. | :29:14. | |
when they were told the winner was actually Moonlight. | :29:15. | :29:17. | |
There's a warning that insuring your car could cost a lot | :29:18. | :29:22. | |
The changes mean higher compensation pay-outs. | :29:23. | :29:25. |
