You are watching BBC in the Channel Islands. Welcome to the programme. | :00:09. | :00:15. | |
Coming up: the cost of BT, doubts over whether women here will get | :00:15. | :00:20. | |
their now banned breast implants removed for free. Also tonight, we | :00:20. | :00:24. | |
look around Guernsey's new hospice and ask where it will find the | :00:24. | :00:28. | |
money to keep going. And milking the Jersey name, as | :00:28. | :00:38. | |
:00:38. | :00:44. | ||
dairy farmers target lucrative Pressure is mounting on private | :00:44. | :00:47. | |
surgeons who carried out breast enlargements using the | :00:47. | :00:52. | |
controversial French PIP implants to remove them without charging. A | :00:52. | :00:56. | |
consultant plastic surgeon who has used them on patients in Jersey has | :00:56. | :00:59. | |
offered to give his time for free to remove those implants. In | :00:59. | :01:03. | |
Guernsey, a private healthcare provider has offered to give free | :01:03. | :01:08. | |
checks to all women with implants. These are the breast implants that | :01:08. | :01:12. | |
are causing the concern. Both the island's help services so that none | :01:12. | :01:16. | |
of the French made PIP implants were given to patients in the | :01:16. | :01:21. | |
island's hospitals but it doesn'ts of women have had them privately. - | :01:21. | :01:31. | |
:01:31. | :01:33. | ||
- dozens of women. Here at the clinic in St Hellier, Adrian | :01:33. | :01:37. | |
Grobbelar is holding a private clinic. He has used these implants | :01:37. | :01:42. | |
in the past. Today his secretary told me that he would be giving his | :01:42. | :01:45. | |
time for free to those who wanted them removed. What remains unclear | :01:45. | :01:50. | |
is who would pay for the theatre time and staff. TPs have reported a | :01:50. | :01:53. | |
rise in the number of women concerned about the implants. -- | :01:53. | :02:00. | |
GPs. Women that have been consulting GPs. They are not sure | :02:00. | :02:08. | |
which in plant they have had. Guernsey, the private health | :02:08. | :02:14. | |
provider, Centre for Modern Medicine, is providing free local | :02:14. | :02:17. | |
check-ups to any woman who has the PIP implants. They have also gone | :02:17. | :02:22. | |
further saying that if any implants need replacing or if a woman | :02:22. | :02:27. | |
decides she wants to go down that route to anyway, they will offer | :02:27. | :02:31. | |
the procedure at a reduced tariff. We need to understand what happened | :02:31. | :02:36. | |
in the United Kingdom. A review was announced by the UK health service | :02:36. | :02:42. | |
today. That will do little to allay the women -- fears of women here | :02:42. | :02:46. | |
who are wondering how safe their implants are and if they need to be | :02:46. | :02:50. | |
removed, who will pay. Two people had to climb out of a | :02:50. | :02:54. | |
bedroom window on to their route to escape a fire in St Hellier last | :02:54. | :02:58. | |
night. The fire was on the first floor at a home on Bellozane Avenue | :02:59. | :03:02. | |
and broke out at around 11pm. It was brought under control by the | :03:02. | :03:09. | |
fire service. The cause is being investigated. | :03:09. | :03:13. | |
Police in Jersey have renewed their appeal for their woman who has been | :03:13. | :03:16. | |
missing for almost a month. Margarida Nascimento de Ascensao | :03:16. | :03:22. | |
was last seen around 9pm on Friday 16th December at her home in St | :03:23. | :03:26. | |
Saviours Road. She has not been in touch with anyone since. She is | :03:26. | :03:30. | |
from Madeira, around five feet two inches tall, of a medium to stocky | :03:30. | :03:36. | |
build and has long dark hair. a concern. In the course of a year, | :03:36. | :03:40. | |
we have 700 missing person reports and those people are found within | :03:40. | :03:45. | |
hours or days. She has now been missing for almost four weeks. The | :03:45. | :03:50. | |
appeal today is really not just from members of the public but to | :03:50. | :03:52. | |
Margarida Nascimento de Ascensao herself. You are not in any trouble, | :03:52. | :03:57. | |
we are concerned for your welfare. If you do not want people to know | :03:57. | :04:04. | |
why you are, please do contact us. Patients and staff have been | :04:04. | :04:12. | |
settling into Jersey's new Les Bourgs Hospice this week. There is | :04:12. | :04:18. | |
still a very large bill to be paid however. | :04:18. | :04:27. | |
I like be fitted sheets. They are so easy to drive. From the | :04:27. | :04:33. | |
bedsheets to the bedrooms, there are lots of admirers at Guernsey's | :04:33. | :04:36. | |
new hospice. I am sure they are going to be very happy years. I | :04:36. | :04:42. | |
think we are all going to be happy because it is a luxury for us. | :04:42. | :04:46. | |
Relatives have been flabbergasted by how lovely it is. The patients | :04:46. | :04:52. | |
have been recovering from the shock of any event and are glad to be | :04:52. | :04:56. | |
settling in. Despite every bedroom having some of the latest | :04:56. | :04:59. | |
technologies such as this hoist system that goes all around the | :04:59. | :05:05. | |
room, they also benefit from having a private terrace and the all- | :05:05. | :05:11. | |
important room with a view. garden is the focal point of the | :05:11. | :05:15. | |
hospice and all seven on suite bedrooms have easy access to the | :05:15. | :05:19. | |
outdoors. This is not just a story about a new hospice. It still needs | :05:19. | :05:24. | |
to be paid for, approximately �1 million to write off, and that is | :05:24. | :05:28. | |
before covering the annual running costs of almost three-quarters of a | :05:28. | :05:31. | |
million pounds. The hospice is not resting on its laurels and is | :05:32. | :05:35. | |
trying to generate new income streams. We now have a marvellous | :05:35. | :05:40. | |
training room and we are hoping to provide that as a service to the | :05:40. | :05:44. | |
island if people want to lease the room which will give us a small | :05:44. | :05:50. | |
income streams. Everything helps. new beginning for this hospice. But | :05:50. | :05:56. | |
not the end for the charity's financial challenges. | :05:56. | :05:59. | |

the upcoming Six Nations tournament. He did not make it into the squad. | :06:22. | :06:27. | |
He was part of England's World Cup team in the autumn and was one of | :06:27. | :06:32. | |

Jersey could be exporting cow embryos to China within the next | :06:48. | :06:51. | |
two years. The President of the island's agricultural society says | :06:52. | :06:59. | |
that China has been importing dairy cows to increase production. | :06:59. | :07:04. | |
Embryos have been sent to Argentina, delivering a welcome financial | :07:04. | :07:13. | |
boost to local dairy farmers. Lech time at Le Ferme. These cows | :07:13. | :07:17. | |
are famous the world Ovett -- lunch time. Their fame is set to get | :07:17. | :07:20. | |
bigger. Last summer, a law was changed which means that farmers | :07:20. | :07:24. | |
can now send power embryos to countries where there is a demand | :07:25. | :07:29. | |
for pedigree cattle. The first ones have just arrived in Argentina. | :07:29. | :07:35. | |
They are a few days old and are extracted from the donor cows and | :07:35. | :07:41. | |
deep-frozen. They are exported as about -50 degrees. They have gone | :07:41. | :07:48. | |
to Argentina and been given better than a clearance at the weekend. | :07:48. | :07:53. | |
Each embryo can reach up to �500 for farmers. Now the forest seemed | :07:53. | :07:58. | |
interested in a bit of the Jersey too. The dairy industry in China is | :07:58. | :08:04. | |
growing rapidly but they are not yet in the position to take on high | :08:04. | :08:08. | |
and genetics. They will be there soon. It is a marvellous | :08:08. | :08:13. | |
opportunity for Jersey. It has also been welcomed by Anne Perchard. She | :08:13. | :08:17. | |
has been farming since 1950 and says that the decision is a long | :08:17. | :08:23. | |
time coming. It is wonderful because it is as a diversification | :08:23. | :08:27. | |
for the dairy farmer. He now has a pool of embryos that he can sell. | :08:27. | :08:37. | |
It must be really top-quality stuff, I must say. Farmers think they will | :08:37. | :08:40. | |
export 200 embryos a year. Agricultural bosses says this | :08:40. | :08:44. | |
decision will not dilute the Jersey breed but strengthen it and will | :08:44. | :08:48. | |
provide a welcome financial boost for one of the island's most | :08:48. | :08:55. | |
important industries. A film crew will be taking in the | :08:55. | :09:01. | |
sites around their C this week. For the BBC share Countryfile, they | :09:01. | :09:06. | |
have been filming of the island's West Coast finding more about Lihou | :09:06. | :09:10. | |
Island. The plan was to have a go at ormering and learn more about | :09:10. | :09:13. | |
the tradition that that was not the only thing the presenters will be | :09:13. | :09:18. | |
focusing on. There are loads of great stories we can cover. We are | :09:18. | :09:22. | |
looking at dairy farming, the possibilities for what can be grown | :09:22. | :09:27. | |
here because there's so much light and warmth. Also, I will be looking | :09:27. | :09:32. | |
at the oil spill that happened in the 1960s and at the impact that | :09:32. | :09:36. | |
has had on the island. If you want to see what they have | :09:36. | :09:40. | |
been up to, that episode of Countryfile is on BBC One on 29th | :09:40. | :09:45. | |
