Good evening and welcome to BBC Points West. Our headlines tonight: | :00:10. | :00:14. | |
A husband is charged with the murder of his wife. He's alleged to | :00:14. | :00:18. | |
have killed after a decade nursing her through Alzheimer's. | :00:18. | :00:23. | |
Boarded up - the hospital where mistakes were made at all levels. | :00:23. | :00:29. | |
Why did the CQC not do their job and investigate earlier? Why was it | :00:29. | :00:34. | |
left so long, when somebody had clearly raised the alarm? | :00:34. | :00:37. | |
A new defence role is announced for Lyneham after the RAF pull out | :00:37. | :00:43. | |
leaving a hole in the economy. And. Tom, you're going to become my | :00:43. | :00:48. | |
business partner. You're hired. sweet moment for Tom from Bath | :00:48. | :00:58. | |

University, as Lord Sugar says, Good evening. A pensioner who spent | :01:00. | :01:03. | |
the past decade caring for his disabled wife, has appeared in | :01:03. | :01:06. | |
court accused of killing her. Malcolm Beardon, who is seventy | :01:06. | :01:11. | |
nine, is tonight in a prison cell charged with murder. | :01:11. | :01:14. | |
Neighbours in the Somerset town of Wellington have described the | :01:14. | :01:17. | |
couple as devoted and say this is a tragedy which has shocked the | :01:17. | :01:21. | |
entire community. Clinton Rogers has the story. | :01:21. | :01:24. | |
This is 78-year-old Margaret Beardon, who in recent years had | :01:24. | :01:29. | |
become disabled by dementia. This is where she lived with her husband | :01:30. | :01:33. | |
Malcolm, who according to friends spent the last ten years as her | :01:33. | :01:37. | |
full time carer. But on Friday, police were called here to find Mrs | :01:37. | :01:42. | |
Beardon dead. And today her husband appeared in court charged with her | :01:42. | :01:47. | |
murder. The hearing at Taunton Magistrates Court lasted just a few | :01:48. | :01:52. | |
minutes. He was not required to enter a plea of either guilty or | :01:52. | :01:55. | |
not guilty and was remanded in custody to appear at Exeter Crown | :01:55. | :01:59. | |
Court on Wednesday. In Wellington this afternoon, neighbours reacted | :01:59. | :02:08. | |
with shock and spoke of a devoted couple. Head believed that she | :02:08. | :02:15. | |
suffered from dementia for many years. -- I believe. He had looked | :02:15. | :02:23. | |
after our for all of that time. is very sad, because people showed | :02:23. | :02:26. | |
dedication and look after their loved ones all these years, and | :02:26. | :02:30. | |
then the pressure gets too much, and it appears that this is what | :02:30. | :02:34. | |
happened. My thoughts go led to the family and anyone connected, | :02:34. | :02:38. | |
because it is a very tragic time for everyone concerned. Tonight, | :02:38. | :02:41. | |
the family issued a statement which read: "The past few days have been | :02:42. | :02:44. | |
extremely stressful for all involved. We would ask that the | :02:44. | :02:47. | |
media respect the privacy of the family while we provide care and | :02:47. | :02:51. | |
support to our father who we love dearly". Mr Beardon is due to | :02:51. | :02:57. | |
appear at Exeter Crown Court on Wednesday. | :02:57. | :03:00. | |
Around 200 mourners attended the funeral today of Becky Godden | :03:00. | :03:05. | |
Edwards in Swindon. Her remains were found in a shallow grave by | :03:05. | :03:08. | |
police in Gloucestershire earlier this year. 47-year-old Christopher | :03:08. | :03:10. | |
Halliwell, a taxi driver from Swindon, has been charged with her | :03:10. | :03:17. | |
murder. Steve Knibbs reports. If there is anything to come from | :03:17. | :03:20. | |
this tragedy so far, today was an important step for Becky Godden | :03:20. | :03:25. | |
Edwards family. But it is, of course, the day they hoped they'd | :03:25. | :03:34. | |
never see. I think this is the welcoming home and a farewell all- | :03:34. | :03:39. | |
in-one for Becky. Her mother said she will never have a wedding, but | :03:40. | :03:44. | |
she will have today, and this is their way to bring closure to all | :03:44. | :03:50. | |
of this waiting. The congregation were told today that Becky was a | :03:50. | :03:52. | |
bright, intelligent girl - reflected in the request for | :03:52. | :03:59. | |
mourners to wear something pink. A family friend paid tribute to Becky | :03:59. | :04:03. | |
saying that she remained a loving and kind daughter. She never forgot | :04:03. | :04:08. | |
Mother's Day. She said to the congregation, that nobody should | :04:08. | :04:12. | |
judge her because they do not know what is to come. But in her teens, | :04:12. | :04:15. | |
she turned to drugs and became disconnected from her family. She | :04:15. | :04:17. | |
eventually went missing. Despite extensive searches for her at the | :04:18. | :04:20. | |
time, her fate was only discovered earlier this year. Police | :04:20. | :04:23. | |
investigating the murder of Sian O' Callaghan from Swindon, found a set | :04:23. | :04:26. | |
of human remains in a field at Eastleach in Gloucestershire. A | :04:26. | :04:29. | |
match on the national DNA database confirmed it was Becky. Her parents | :04:29. | :04:38. | |
were told the news on what would have been her 29th birthday. | :04:38. | :04:40. | |
Christopher Halliwell, a Swindon taxi driver, has been charged with | :04:40. | :04:43. | |
Becky's murder and that of Sian O Callghan. He's due in court later | :04:43. | :04:46. | |
this month to enter pleas. Amongst the mourners today was Sian O' | :04:46. | :04:50. | |
callaghan's grandmother - she told me she was here as a mark of | :04:50. | :04:52. | |
solidarity between to the two families. After the service, | :04:52. | :04:55. | |
Becky's family and close friends left for the crematorium. A chance | :04:55. | :04:58. | |
for them to say a private goodbye to someone's who's passing has been | :04:58. | :05:08. | |
:05:08. | :05:10. | ||
very public. The future of the RAF base at | :05:10. | :05:13. | |
Lyneham in Wiltshire has been secured. After years of uncertainty, | :05:13. | :05:16. | |
the Defence Secretary, Liam Fox announced in the Commons this | :05:16. | :05:23. | |
afternoon that the base still has a military future. The Defence | :05:23. | :05:26. | |
technical training programme will move to Lyneham, guaranteeing its | :05:26. | :05:31. | |
future. These details are in the written statement I have laid out | :05:31. | :05:37. | |
today. The planning work, including the investment required, will now | :05:37. | :05:40. | |
get under way based on strategic direction. It involves | :05:40. | :05:44. | |
consultations with local community and statutory obligations that we | :05:44. | :05:52. | |
need to fell. I am very aware of the changes this well cause for | :05:52. | :05:55. | |
service personnel and their families. Let me assure them that | :05:55. | :06:00. | |
these events will take place after 2015. In a moment we'll be getting | :06:00. | :06:03. | |
reactions from people who live in Lyneham, but first we're joined | :06:03. | :06:05. | |
from Westminster by James Gray, the Conservative MP for North Wiltshire | :06:05. | :06:15. | |
:06:15. | :06:15. | ||
- who has long campaigned to keep a military presence there. Defence | :06:16. | :06:24. | |
technical training, what is this? This is about 1500 service people | :06:24. | :06:29. | |
rising to 2,000 people, possibly more in the future, people that are | :06:29. | :06:33. | |
training in their technical aspects of defence, that might be | :06:33. | :06:37. | |
engineering, road-building, car maintenance, and electrics, | :06:37. | :06:42. | |
information technology, those technical aspects of going to war | :06:42. | :06:46. | |
need to be trained and highly qualified civilian trainees and | :06:46. | :06:50. | |
trainers do this work. It is spread around England at the moment, the | :06:50. | :06:54. | |
idea is to have a centre of excellence at RAF Lyneham. | :06:54. | :07:00. | |
Thousands of people have left Lyneham, how close is this to what | :07:00. | :07:06. | |
she wanted? It is brilliant news for the whole area. We will have | :07:06. | :07:09. | |
opted to 1,000 servers people and a few hundred trainers and educators | :07:09. | :07:14. | |
and technicians, all of them moving to the area, the school, the pubs | :07:14. | :07:17. | |
everything will have the business that they are losing it because the | :07:17. | :07:23. | |
RAF relieving, we will see a revival in the economy of the area. | :07:24. | :07:27. | |
There will be investment, hundreds of millions of pounds of investment | :07:27. | :07:31. | |
in it, the area would benefit from it and we said a sad goodbye to the | :07:31. | :07:36. | |
RAF a few weeks ago, but now we can look forward to the army moving in | :07:36. | :07:42. | |
as soon as 2013. I was going to ask about the timescale, because Liam | :07:42. | :07:46. | |
Fox mentioned 2015, you said it would be reasonably swift and you | :07:46. | :07:51. | |
mentioned 2013, so what you think we are looking at? They wanted as | :07:51. | :07:57. | |
soon as possible, because two bases in Hampshire that they are leaving, | :07:57. | :08:00. | |
they it is high quality building land, and they want to get the cash | :08:00. | :08:05. | |
from that. -- that is high quality. There is a lot of work to be done | :08:05. | :08:10. | |
on the base, it is tired after 50 years of the RAF there, so | :08:10. | :08:15. | |
hopefully there will be local jobs doing that work. From 2013 on words, | :08:15. | :08:20. | |
the military will start to move them, and by 2014, it should be | :08:20. | :08:25. | |
completed, so a new college. It boils down to being a technical | :08:25. | :08:29. | |
college for the armed services, going a fully by 2014. Thank you | :08:29. | :08:35. | |
for making it a bit clearer for us. A day they too were delighted about. | :08:35. | :08:40. | |
Many years of campaigning by a local people. | :08:40. | :08:44. | |
Well for people who live in Lyneham, the future of the airbase is a | :08:44. | :08:47. | |
hugely important issue. So what do they make of today's announcement? | :08:47. | :08:50. | |
Our Wiltshire reporter, Scott Ellis is at the Mallard Pub there for us | :08:50. | :08:55. | |
now. They have waited many years for | :08:55. | :09:00. | |
this decision, so let's find out what they think on the grand jury | :09:00. | :09:05. | |
of Lynam, the local councillor, Alison, what you think? It was a | :09:05. | :09:08. | |
very well-kept secret, we are delighted with the news. Thank you | :09:08. | :09:14. | |
to him for the campaign that he has run. That allows for the community. | :09:14. | :09:19. | |
And the parish council, are you 100 % have the or cautious? We are | :09:19. | :09:25. | |
happy with the announcement, we are a bit cautious, the Devil has | :09:25. | :09:29. | |
always in the detail. It is not that it will absolutely happen. You | :09:29. | :09:34. | |
had plans for racing car, but none of the base will be sold off now, | :09:34. | :09:41. | |
what you think? -- plans for a theme park. This was always plan B. | :09:41. | :09:44. | |
We want to safeguard the area if there was no military involvement, | :09:44. | :09:49. | |
now, the military business were blown back here, so business will | :09:49. | :09:53. | |
boom as well. We lost about 20 % of our business with the RAF leaving, | :09:53. | :09:59. | |
I think we will get that back now. You're doing your last shift in RAF | :09:59. | :10:05. | |
Lyneham tonight. Yes, last shift, hopefully it will be a positive | :10:05. | :10:10. | |
move. What you think people outside Lyneham will think about this new | :10:10. | :10:15. | |
defence training package coming? is very positive. It is very | :10:15. | :10:20. | |
positive for the village, business and everything. We have had calls | :10:20. | :10:25. | |
from Australia saying congratulations. We have to talk to | :10:25. | :10:29. | |
their landlord, he has noticed business is tailing off, just | :10:30. | :10:33. | |
finally, are you pleased to see that there will be 1500 soldiers | :10:33. | :10:37. | |
moving here eventually? If very, very pleased, it would be great for | :10:37. | :10:41. | |
the village. We could do with an uplift after the last six or seven | :10:41. | :10:49. | |
months. Thank you all very much for talking to us. The Hercules is | :10:49. | :10:52. | |
sadly missed and it will be a tough act to follow. A thumbs-up for the | :10:52. | :11:00. | |
new defence training package. Thank you. | :11:00. | :11:03. | |
You're watching BBC Points West with Alex and David - and you're | :11:03. | :11:05. | |
most welcome. Coming up on tonight's programme: | :11:05. | :11:09. | |
Hoping for a sprint finish. We meet the Bath athlete with his eyes on | :11:09. | :11:18. | |
the prize at London 2012. The body of a Bristol man has been | :11:18. | :11:21. | |
found at the side of a road in Wales. The 27-year-old, who hasn't | :11:21. | :11:24. | |
been identified, was discovered on a road near Pontllanfraith in | :11:24. | :11:30. | |
Caerphilly, early on Sunday morning. The Police are examining CCTV | :11:30. | :11:32. | |
footage and conducting house-to- house inquiries to find out what | :11:32. | :11:38. | |
happened to him. His next of kin are being informed. | :11:38. | :11:43. | |
One of Bath's biggest employers is laying off a tenth of its workforce. | :11:43. | :11:46. | |
Future Publishing produces over 80 magazines, on everything from | :11:46. | :11:50. | |
guitars to knitting. A thousand staff work at its offices in the | :11:50. | :11:54. | |
city, but now 100 jobs have been cut. Sales of print magazines have | :11:54. | :11:56. | |
declined recently, especially in America, but the company's websites | :11:56. | :12:03. | |
are doing much better. "A systemic failure to protect the | :12:03. | :12:07. | |
vulnerable or investigate allegations of abuse". That's the | :12:07. | :12:10. | |
conclusion of a damning report into a private hospital near Bristol - | :12:10. | :12:13. | |
for people with learning difficulties. Winterbourne View has | :12:13. | :12:18. | |
since closed down and a total of 12 people have been arrested. Today, | :12:18. | :12:20. | |
the government regulator, the Care Quality Commission, released its | :12:21. | :12:26. | |
report into the hospital. Dickon Hooper has been reading through it | :12:26. | :12:36. | |
:12:36. | :12:39. | ||
and joins me now. Does this report give you any | :12:39. | :12:48. | |
conferred? At this point no. Annie confer to? | :12:48. | :12:52. | |
Ann has more reason than most to want to see this report. This is | :12:52. | :12:55. | |
her son Simon in care at Winterbourne View. Today, we met up | :12:55. | :12:58. | |
with Ann again as the government watchdog released its repo rt into | :12:58. | :13:01. | |
what it found here after the BBC had gone in undercover. It talks | :13:01. | :13:04. | |
about a systemic failure to protect people or investigate abuse. A | :13:04. | :13:07. | |
failure to protect patients from risk and that staff did not | :13:07. | :13:14. | |
understand the needs of people in their care People like Simon. | :13:14. | :13:21. | |
quite shocked. It seems to me they had managed to put the blame on | :13:21. | :13:28. | |
everybody and white wash themselves. I feel very strongly that all of | :13:28. | :13:30. | |
the agencies were to blame. Everybody must carry their portion | :13:30. | :13:34. | |
of blame. Winterbourne View is now boarded up and closed down. It was | :13:34. | :13:41. | |
run by Castlebeck. All their hospitals have been reviewed by the | :13:41. | :13:45. | |
government watchdog. And today they accepted what the CQC had to say. | :13:45. | :13:50. | |
It is apparent there were failings, and having looked at it in details, | :13:50. | :13:55. | |
we can see that there are a number of issues that we should have seen | :13:55. | :13:59. | |
earlier answer to picked up earlier as clearly did not. Cold comfort | :13:59. | :14:02. | |
for the man who blew the whistle on this. Although Castlebeck have | :14:02. | :14:07. | |
tightened up their Winterbourne View policy, he's calling for more. | :14:07. | :14:11. | |
An independent public inquiry is the only way to get the information | :14:11. | :14:16. | |
together and see the full picture and move on a bit. I would like to | :14:16. | :14:21. | |
see policy changed in these places. Asian not exist. If that happens, | :14:21. | :14:24. | |
this is the big victory. But all the inquries and reports won't | :14:24. | :14:27. | |
change what happened, leaving parents like Ann with unanswered | :14:27. | :14:35. | |
questions for the agencies that failed to protect her son. Why did | :14:35. | :14:40. | |
beseech you see not do their job and investigate earlier? -- y de | :14:40. | :14:45. | |
Care Quality Commission at do their job? Why he didn't not do anything | :14:45. | :14:49. | |
when the alarm was raised. Well, Ian Biggs from the CQC joins | :14:49. | :14:52. | |
me live in the studio to answer those questions. Why did you not | :14:52. | :14:58. | |
intervene sooner? The report this morning is one that tries to lay | :14:58. | :15:02. | |
out the underlying facts associated with the failings. We acknowledge | :15:02. | :15:06. | |
that when we were contacted, we did not respond as quickly as we could | :15:06. | :15:12. | |
have, and he has also acknowledged that the kind of emerged that the | :15:12. | :15:17. | |
programme showed us was a shock to him as anybody else. -- the kind of | :15:17. | :15:21. | |
image. We inspected at the following day and caught them very | :15:21. | :15:27. | |
quickly. In the report, you put all of the blame on the management for | :15:27. | :15:31. | |
what went wrong, but he also blamed them for not telling you that | :15:31. | :15:35. | |
things were going wrong, but that is your job to find out. As they | :15:35. | :15:39. | |
register provider, they have a legal responsibility to inform us | :15:39. | :15:43. | |
when things go wrong, but of course, the whole some responsibility as | :15:44. | :15:48. | |
well for not reacting as quickly as we should. You cannot expect them | :15:48. | :15:51. | |
to tell you when things are going wrong, if that is a ridiculous | :15:51. | :15:54. | |
thing to trust them to put their hand up and say we're doing a | :15:54. | :16:01. | |
terrible job here. Not all providers will be a been that way. | :16:01. | :16:04. | |
Most providers behave themselves well and understand their | :16:04. | :16:09. | |
responsibilities, but word that doesn't happen, we need to redouble | :16:09. | :16:14. | |
efforts to uncover these activities and act quickly. Can you give any | :16:14. | :16:18. | |
reassurance to residents of other hospitals run by this company? | :16:18. | :16:23. | |
have carried out inspections by other services in this company, and | :16:23. | :16:26. | |
his inspectors had been completed and we are now deciding what action | :16:26. | :16:30. | |
to take, if we need to take any further action, and there were | :16:30. | :16:35. | |
published this in a few weeks' time. OK. Thank you. A | :16:35. | :16:38. | |
A psychologist treating the Bristol businessman, accused of murdering | :16:38. | :16:41. | |
his wife, has told his extradition hearing, that he is unfit to travel | :16:41. | :16:44. | |
to South Africa. The authorities there want Shrien Dewani to stand | :16:44. | :16:48. | |
trial for ordering his wife Anni to be shot dead on their honeymoon. Mr | :16:48. | :16:50. | |
Dewani denies the accusations and is fighting extradition. John | :16:50. | :16:59. | |
Maguire reports from Woolwich Crown Court. | :16:59. | :17:05. | |
IVAs, sometimes close and walking slowly, Shrien Dewani or ride in | :17:05. | :17:08. | |
court this morning escorted by family and staff from the Mental | :17:08. | :17:13. | |
Health Unit in Bristol where he is receiving treatment. -- Shrien | :17:13. | :17:19. | |
Dewani arrived in court. It took just a few minutes for him to leave | :17:19. | :17:24. | |
the court and returned to Bristol into care. He's been treated with | :17:24. | :17:27. | |
post-traumatic stress disorder after the murder of his wife in | :17:27. | :17:34. | |
Africa last year. His barristers said it would be inhumane to keep | :17:34. | :17:39. | |
him here and that he was very frail. The judge said that he was | :17:39. | :17:42. | |
persuaded by medical advice that by forcing it Shrien Dewani to attend | :17:42. | :17:47. | |
court and sit through the hearings, it would significantly worse than | :17:47. | :17:51. | |
his condition. The court was told he suffers with two conditions, | :17:51. | :17:57. | |
severe depression and severe post- traumatic stress disorder. Here at | :17:57. | :18:01. | |
the secure mental health unit, he is checked every half an hour. His | :18:01. | :18:06. | |
doctor, a consultant psychologist, said that Shrien Dewani could not | :18:06. | :18:10. | |
take anti-depressant medication due to a medical condition, so his | :18:10. | :18:15. | |
therapy is based around talking and it is impossible to say when he | :18:15. | :18:19. | |
could be cured. He testified that being sent to South Africa to face | :18:19. | :18:24. | |
trial would make his bow as much worse and would increase his risk | :18:24. | :18:28. | |
of killing himself. -- would make his film as much worse. All of the | :18:28. | :18:35. | |
evidence was listened to intently by the family is sitting just feet | :18:35. | :18:39. | |
apart but hoping for a very different outcome to this | :18:39. | :18:45. | |
extradition hearing. Now sport, and time to meet another | :18:45. | :18:50. | |
of our athletes aiming to make a big impact at London 2012. Today | :18:50. | :18:53. | |
it's a sprinter from Bath, who is one of our brightest hopes for a | :18:53. | :18:59. | |
medal at the Paralympics. Ben Rushgrove was born with | :18:59. | :19:01. | |
cerebral palsy, but has become one of the country's top sprinters, | :19:01. | :19:05. | |
winning silver at the last games in Beijing. And as Alistair Durden | :19:05. | :19:14. | |
reports, this time next year he's aiming to go one better. I like the | :19:14. | :19:19. | |
idea that I am trying to see how good I can beat, to see how Farrer | :19:19. | :19:22. | |
can push my body, where the limits are. | :19:22. | :19:25. | |
It's an attitude that's taken Ben Rushgrove to the top of his sport. | :19:25. | :19:28. | |
His battle to overcome cerebral palsy and hearing problems is now | :19:28. | :19:37. | |
an inspiration to others. Sport has given me that platform to allow me | :19:37. | :19:44. | |
to try and change people's attitudes and prove that disabled | :19:44. | :19:48. | |
people are not people that should be told to shut up and they're no | :19:48. | :19:52. | |
use to society. Ben is 23, and was born and brought up in Bath. He | :19:52. | :19:55. | |
runs both the 100 and 200 metres. But running isn't everything for | :19:55. | :20:00. | |
Ben - a family BBQ reveals the other love of his life. Food is my | :20:00. | :20:06. | |
number two passion. I don't care who cooks at, but I do like food! | :20:06. | :20:09. | |
He's the oldest of three children and family support has been | :20:09. | :20:16. | |
important to him. If you didn't know him, he would not know that he | :20:16. | :20:19. | |
was disabled, so a lot of that time, you wouldn't even know he was an | :20:19. | :20:24. | |
athlete! Every so often for 10 seconds of the year, he makes magic | :20:24. | :20:30. | |
happen. It is very special. Beijing was the first time that I really | :20:30. | :20:34. | |
saw him run. That was my brother, that was on the same track as Usain | :20:34. | :20:39. | |
Bolt. That was pretty special. silver medal was something of a | :20:39. | :20:45. | |
miracle. Ben finished second, despite having a broken foot. | :20:45. | :20:50. | |
was ridiculously difficult. I wouldn't recommend it to anybody | :20:50. | :20:53. | |
else. But having said all of that, I wouldn't change what I did for | :20:53. | :20:57. | |
the world. I had one opportunity to really go for it and make the most | :20:57. | :21:02. | |
of it, and you just never know. You do not know when you'll get an | :21:02. | :21:05. | |
opportunity like that again. Ben's house if full of career memorabilia | :21:05. | :21:15. | |
:21:15. | :21:15. | ||
- some in usual places. We did this come from? I might have stolen it! | :21:15. | :21:24. | |
And might have stolen it from the BBC! You have got all of you | :21:24. | :21:28. | |
Paralympic towels and unbelievably, this is for you keep your world | :21:28. | :21:34. | |
record Certificate! It is just a joke gets back like everything | :21:34. | :21:38. | |
else! Somewhere to put it! London could bring more souvenirs. But he | :21:38. | :21:44. | |
may have to break that World record again. He will win more than one | :21:44. | :21:48. | |
medal at the London Paralympics, I am that confident. I will not tell | :21:49. | :21:54. | |
you what collared the medal will be, but he will win two medals at the | :21:54. | :22:02. | |
Paralympics in London. Faith that seems entirely justified. | :22:02. | :22:07. | |
We look forward to reporting his success in 2012. If I had any | :22:07. | :22:12. | |
awards, I would put them in the bathroom, but I haven't got any! | :22:12. | :22:16. | |
For a bathroom! Bless! I don't know how you manage! | :22:16. | :22:20. | |
He puts his hand up when he wants to talk and he's been known to nod | :22:20. | :22:25. | |
a fair amount and to get just a little bit flustered. | :22:25. | :22:27. | |
He is, of course, Tom Pellereau, winner of The Apprentice. The | :22:27. | :22:31. | |
secret of his success? Well he puts it all down to everything he learnt | :22:31. | :22:34. | |
on his degree course at the University of Bath. Here's Jules | :22:34. | :22:39. | |
Hyam. Well this was the grand final grand | :22:39. | :22:49. | |
:22:49. | :22:53. | ||
finale. There's Helen. There's our Tom. Tom, you would become my | :22:53. | :22:59. | |
business partner, you are hired. Tom wins. And what a popular winner. | :22:59. | :23:03. | |
The self confessed nerd - all round nice guy - and the politest man on | :23:03. | :23:06. | |
TV. He is everything you'd expect from someone who studied here in | :23:06. | :23:16. | |
:23:16. | :23:17. | ||
the west. He is very much like what he came across on the TV programme, | :23:17. | :23:23. | |
he is self-effacing, very clear thinking. I think it is the self- | :23:23. | :23:27. | |
effacing attitude that really comes across strongly. He is not arrogant. | :23:27. | :23:32. | |
He is not a salesperson. He is what he is. And what he is - is Alan | :23:32. | :23:42. | |
:23:42. | :23:43. | ||
Sugar's new business partner. That is despite not winning all of the | :23:43. | :23:47. | |
tasks, and at being pursued. Sulphur face of, creative and a | :23:47. | :23:53. | |
nice guy. They ate the sum him up. But here at the University of Bath, | :23:53. | :23:57. | |
he would have learnt about different issues, like defensible | :23:57. | :24:00. | |
space, hierarchy of needs, principles of design that would | :24:00. | :24:05. | |
have stood him in very good stead. Maybe there is some legs in | :24:05. | :24:12. | |
offering a chair. We are delighted for Tom that he has got this | :24:12. | :24:15. | |
product design business plan and it is all about what makes up the mix | :24:15. | :24:20. | |
of subjects that we do here. We gave him the scope to extend his | :24:20. | :24:26. | |
experience and knowledge in creativity in the design context, | :24:26. | :24:30. | |
so we are delighted that we gave him a start on his road to success. | :24:30. | :24:36. | |
The winner of the apprentice, 2011, Tom! | :24:36. | :24:46. | |
:24:46. | :24:47. | ||
They should be proud of him. The house lovely, adorable. | :24:47. | :24:51. | |
He invented a nail file, you're sort of guy, really! | :24:51. | :25:01. | |
:25:01. | :25:05. | ||
Not sure people were happy with the weekend weather. I was at Ashton | :25:05. | :25:11. | |
Court yesterday and it was very changeable. Tomorrow, so mixed | :25:11. | :25:16. | |
fortunes. A good deal of dry weather. A chance of some sunshine | :25:16. | :25:20. | |
for some people during tomorrow. At low pressure in the North Sea has | :25:20. | :25:27. | |
been the dominating part through the weekend. The pressure started | :25:27. | :25:31. | |
to rise slowly. Tomorrow, and North westerly flow with a distribution | :25:31. | :25:38. | |
of shares that is changing. The rainfall radar and the last few | :25:38. | :25:45. | |
days, it shows how much rain has crossed to the east. In Wiltshire, | :25:45. | :25:49. | |
some more showers and following into West Somerset. For the rest of | :25:49. | :25:57. | |
the evening, many parts will dry out. A few showers following behind. | :25:57. | :26:02. | |
The wind, being lighter overnight. Some cloud and under these | :26:02. | :26:10. | |
conditions, 10 or 11 degrees. Tomorrow, the wind will move around | :26:10. | :26:13. | |
to the north-west meaning there will be some districts that will | :26:13. | :26:18. | |
see a good deal of dry weather. Some brighter spells developing, | :26:19. | :26:24. | |
particularly in the south-east. Some showers in West Somerset, | :26:24. | :26:28. | |
particularly in parts of Gloucestershire. Some moderately | :26:28. | :26:33. | |
heavy at times. By the evening, should be dry for most of us. Sunny | :26:33. | :26:40. | |
spots with temperatures reaching maybe 20 degrees Celsius. There are | :26:40. | :26:45. | |
changes under way as we get to the weekend. Gradually, high-pressure | :26:45. | :26:50. | |
is trying to move its way to the south-west of the British Isles. | :26:50. | :26:53. | |
Before that happens, some complications on the way, so there | :26:53. | :26:57. | |
will be some showers about, but less and less with each day and by | :26:57. | :27:01. | |
the time we reach Friday and the weekend, we should see a different | :27:01. | :27:06. | |
weekend to what we had just had. Temperatures around 18, 19 degrees | :27:07. | :27:11. | |
through Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, the chance of one or two showers. | :27:11. | :27:17. | |
By Friday, Saturday, Sunday, it should be dry, brighter and some | :27:17. | :27:20. | |
improvement into the last week of July at least. | :27:20. | :27:26. | |
Thank you. If you did to miss any of the | :27:26. | :27:32. | |
