Good evening, welcome to the BBC in the Channel Islands. | :00:10. | :00:13. | |
A 29-year-old man has been remanded on bail in connection with a break | :00:13. | :00:16. | |
in at a Jersey shop. Paulo Moniz is accused of taking �15,000 worth of | :00:16. | :00:20. | |
jewellery from the Owl And Pussycat shop in Bath Street in the early | :00:20. | :00:23. | |
hours of Boxing Day. He's been put under curfew, must surrender his | :00:23. | :00:26. | |
passport, and will appear again before the magistrate on the 18th | :00:26. | :00:28. | |
of January. Legal challenges against the UK's | :00:28. | :00:31. | |
decision to end the tax-relief for online mail order firms could cost | :00:31. | :00:37. | |
the Channel Islands �5 million and take five years. That's according | :00:37. | :00:41. | |
to Jim Diamond, a UK costs lawyer. He thinks the initial trial alone | :00:41. | :00:46. | |
will cost each government �500,000. The redeveloped Les Bourgs Hospice | :00:47. | :00:50. | |
in Guernsey will begin accepting new patients in January. | :00:50. | :00:53. | |
Fundraising for the new centre is expected to reach �3 million by the | :00:53. | :00:59. | |
end of January. Another million is needed to complete the development. | :00:59. | :01:02. | |
12 months ago a charity was formed to help provide those little extras | :01:02. | :01:05. | |
for children and adults with a severe learning disabilities who | :01:05. | :01:10. | |
require respite care. And during the year it's helped The Croft go | :01:10. | :01:14. | |
from strength to strength, as Penny Elderfield found out. | :01:14. | :01:19. | |
Life for a busy mum is rarely quiet and Sue's family is no exception. | :01:19. | :01:22. | |
But unlike most families she has the challenge of having a son with | :01:22. | :01:31. | |
severe autism. My son is 12, nothing in our lines | :01:31. | :01:41. | |
:01:41. | :01:42. | ||
is spontaneous, we could not go out, we could go out, I can plan for | :01:42. | :01:47. | |
Peter to go into the craft, he can have it any in the up. And we could | :01:47. | :01:54. | |
have a break with our daughter. The staff are wonderful, they're always | :01:54. | :02:00. | |
cheery and happy to see him, he loves going in its one will be | :02:00. | :02:04. | |
close go and to have fun. In fact this facility has helped | :02:04. | :02:07. | |
parents like Sue so much they decided it was time to lend a | :02:08. | :02:11. | |
helping hand. And 12 months ago a charity was set up. A charity which | :02:11. | :02:14. | |
has since made a huge difference. Many of the rooms have been spruced | :02:14. | :02:17. | |
up with new equipment and televisions, and this new sensory | :02:17. | :02:21. | |
room's also been created. We have got children that come in | :02:21. | :02:31. | |
:02:31. | :02:43. | ||
that need Whilst she may be a busy lady, Sue has big plans for the | :02:43. | :02:46. | |
future of the charity. To help a facility that when added to the | :02:46. | :02:50. | |
lives of some families, makes for the perfect combination. | :02:50. | :02:54. | |
There are just a few days left of 2011 and what a year its been for | :02:54. | :02:57. | |
our islands! Over the next three nights, our presenter Clare Burton | :02:58. | :03:00. | |
will look back over the year, starting tonight with the stories | :03:00. | :03:05. | |
making the headlines in the first few months of 2011. | :03:05. | :03:10. | |
A new year brought a new Police Chief to Jersey. Mike Bowron from | :03:10. | :03:13. | |
the City of London Police brought back bobbies on bikes and spends | :03:13. | :03:17. | |
his lunchtimes on the beat in town. Also this month, Jersey actor Henry | :03:17. | :03:23. | |
Cavill was unveiled as the new Superman. The film 'Superman: Man | :03:23. | :03:27. | |
of Steel' is out in Summer 2013. And in Guernsey a year-long saga | :03:27. | :03:32. | |
over this field began. Airport authorities need the land to shift | :03:32. | :03:36. | |
and improve the runway. But the field's owners don't want to sell - | :03:36. | :03:43. | |
and nearby residents don't want the development either. | :03:43. | :03:48. | |
It will cause a lot of damage, it is 13 acres of land that will be | :03:48. | :03:51. | |
destroyed, we need to protect the are then. | :03:51. | :03:57. | |
Alternatives exist and we have not investigated them properly. | :03:57. | :04:00. | |
In February, we went wild in the aisles for a major UK supermarket | :04:00. | :04:03. | |
chain. Jersey got its first Waitrose in February - Guernsey got | :04:03. | :04:05. | |
its in March. February through brought scandal to Jersey's | :04:05. | :04:08. | |
education department, when it emerged the GSCE results from the | :04:08. | :04:11. | |
four states-run secondary schools - and they were way below the UK | :04:11. | :04:16. | |
average of 55% getting five A* to C - including English and Maths. From | :04:16. | :04:21. | |
just 18 to 38%. The Education Minister eventually promised to | :04:21. | :04:31. | |
:04:31. | :04:32. | ||
publish the results. We have a very high selection of | :04:32. | :04:39. | |
education system of the island and to suggest that we can compare our | :04:39. | :04:47. | |
education system with that of the UK on a school by some -- school | :04:47. | :04:51. | |
basis is completely wrong. Towards the end of March, the | :04:51. | :04:53. | |
Condor Vitesse ploughed into this French fishing boat near the | :04:53. | :04:55. | |
Minquiers - killing its captain, Phillipe Le Saulnier. | :04:55. | :04:58. | |
Investigations are ongoing - but one report says the ferry was going | :04:58. | :05:01. | |
too fast in thick fog - and the crew onboard didn't realise they'd | :05:01. | :05:05. | |
even hit anything. Condor says lessons have been learned. | :05:05. | :05:11. | |
We do regular training with all our Mac Masters and they go through | :05:11. | :05:19. | |
ongoing training and this incident will form part of that training. | :05:19. | :05:22. | |
Guernsey's new Lieutenant Governor Air Marshall Peter Walker was sworn | :05:22. | :05:25. | |
into office in April. Jersey's new LG, Sir John McColl arrived in | :05:25. | :05:29. | |
September. Both men ready to serve their islands on behalf of the | :05:29. | :05:35. | |
Queen. Continue to serve her Majesty which | :05:35. | :05:40. | |
has been an important part of my life and it is an important part of | :05:40. | :05:45. | |
the history of Jersey. It is not only a part of the history but also | :05:45. | :05:49. | |
part of the current identity of the island. | :05:49. | :05:52. | |
And speaking of royalty - the Channel Islands went Royal Wedding | :05:52. | :05:55. | |
crazy at the end of April. There were Street parties, school fetes | :05:55. | :05:58. | |
and a day off work for everyone when Prince William and Kate | :05:58. | :06:01. | |
Middleton tied the knot. And we even joined a Jersey couple who | :06:01. | :06:11. | |
:06:11. | :06:16. | ||
Absolutely amazing. I am so proud to be Mrs Stevenson. | :06:16. | :06:24. | |
As last, we have waited a long time. A I feel very privileged to have | :06:24. | :06:28. | |
shared the day with our lack future king and queen. | :06:28. | :06:38. | |
:06:38. | :06:48. | ||
Just a few showers around us, the weather looking more unsettled. For | :06:48. | :06:54. | |
tonight one or two showers. We have high pressure to the West, the low- | :06:54. | :06:58. | |
pressure to the north will affect weather for the rest of the week. | :06:58. | :07:07. | |
Clear skies around. One or two isolated showers. Seven Celsius the | :07:07. | :07:12. | |
minimum overnight temperature. For tomorrow, or one or two showers | :07:12. | :07:22. | |
around. Quite quick moving with the brisket North wind. 10 or 11 Mac | :07:22. | :07:28. | |
Celsius. For the west of the week, Friday looks like we're going to | :07:28. | :07:36. |
