Hello and welcome to BBC Points West. The headlines this evening: | :00:11. | :00:14. | |
Strong denials at the Leveson Inquiry. The Chief Constable of | :00:14. | :00:16. | |
Avon and Somerset police says no off-the-record briefings were given | :00:16. | :00:23. | |
about the Jo Yeates murder investigation. | :00:23. | :00:28. | |
We don't announce people who have been arrested. They're innocent. We | :00:28. | :00:32. | |
don't do that. A row breaks out about how a child | :00:32. | :00:35. | |
rapist was able to get a new passport and escape justice for | :00:35. | :00:42. | |
years. Also tonight: Bristol teams up with Brazil to tackle one of the | :00:42. | :00:43. | |
country's biggest killers, high blood pressure. | :00:44. | :00:46. | |
And turning back time. The boat being built in Gloucester to | :00:46. | :00:53. | |
celebrate the Queen's Diamond Jubilee. | :00:53. | :00:56. | |
Good evening. The Chief Constable of Avon and Somerset police has | :00:56. | :00:59. | |
strongly denied any off-the-record briefings were ever given by his | :00:59. | :01:03. | |
force during the Jo Yeates murder investigation. Colin Port was | :01:03. | :01:09. | |
called to appear in front of the Leveson Inquiry today. Mr Port had | :01:09. | :01:12. | |
to answer questions about their relationship with the media and | :01:12. | :01:14. | |
Christopher Jeffries, the man wrongly arrested in connection with | :01:14. | :01:22. | |
her murder. Steve Brodie has spent the day in London. | :01:22. | :01:25. | |
Chief Constable Colin Port arrived at the Leveson Inquiry and took the | :01:25. | :01:31. | |
oath before giving evidence. He then spent a long time defending | :01:31. | :01:40. | |
the actions of his force. He said at no stage during the Jo | :01:40. | :01:43. | |
Yeates murder investigation where any of the record briefings by | :01:43. | :01:50. | |
police to journalists. But earlier this year, former Clifton College | :01:50. | :01:52. | |
teacher Christopher Jefferies told Lord Chief Justice Leveson that the | :01:52. | :01:59. | |
police had deliberately leaked his name to the tabloids. There are a | :01:59. | :02:04. | |
range of possibilities as far as the sources concerned, including | :02:04. | :02:14. | |
:02:14. | :02:15. | ||
somebody who is not actually an officer, to whom I had given a | :02:15. | :02:20. | |
statement, somebody who had head about the statement. | :02:20. | :02:29. | |
A claim strongly denied by Mr Port. It was a genuine error. We sought | :02:29. | :02:33. | |
to redress the situation right away with the journalist concerned. We | :02:33. | :02:42. | |
certainly did not give any off the record briefings. | :02:42. | :02:45. | |
The inquiry has also previously heard claims by Richard Wallace, | :02:45. | :02:48. | |
the editor of the Mirror, that Avon & Somerset police had given off- | :02:48. | :02:50. | |
the-record briefings to reporters. Another allegation rejected by the | :02:51. | :03:00. | |
:03:01. | :03:02. | ||
chief constable. It is outrageous, the assertion. I have never done | :03:03. | :03:07. | |
that. It is not my job to pass opinion on these issues and they do | :03:07. | :03:12. | |
not give off the record briefings. To behave in a collusive manner is | :03:12. | :03:14. | |
abhorrent. Colin Port again rejected claims | :03:14. | :03:17. | |
made by two Bristol Ikea delivery men who told the BBC their personal | :03:17. | :03:20. | |
details had appeared in The Sun only hours after talking to the | :03:20. | :03:24. | |
police. Detective Chief Inspctor Phil Jones, | :03:24. | :03:31. | |
the man who led the Jo Yeates investigation. Told the hearing | :03:31. | :03:34. | |
that there had been no leaks but he had become concerned when acurate | :03:34. | :03:38. | |
details about DNA samples found on Jo's body were printed in the Daily | :03:38. | :03:42. | |
Mail. Mr Port told the inquiry that his | :03:42. | :03:46. | |
own investigation into alleged leaks was still going on. But given | :03:46. | :03:49. | |
his and DCI Jones' vehement denials that no such thing ever happeneed, | :03:49. | :03:55. | |
it's extremely unlikely that any evidence will ever be found. | :03:55. | :03:57. | |
Earlier I spoke to media commentator Steve Hewlett, who's | :03:57. | :04:00. | |
been following the Leveson Inquiry, and asked him what he'd found | :04:00. | :04:10. | |
:04:10. | :04:11. | ||
interesting about today's evidence. Well, nothing we are seeing now of | :04:11. | :04:15. | |
course is the local press, particularly, demonstrating just | :04:15. | :04:19. | |
how fed up there with the national press. Partly, that is because the | :04:19. | :04:24. | |
local press and not by and large the offenders. The national press | :04:24. | :04:29. | |
are, and in particular, News International. A lot of local | :04:29. | :04:32. | |
papers feel as if they are being dropped on from a great height | :04:32. | :04:37. | |
because of stuff they have not had much to do with. Secondly, we are | :04:37. | :04:42. | |
saying that at a local level, in many cases, press and police tend | :04:42. | :04:48. | |
to have a fairly collaborative, reasonably trusting relationship. | :04:48. | :04:53. | |
Yesterday, we saw people talking from Cumbria, where Derrick Bird | :04:53. | :04:56. | |
went on the rampage and shot does people, about how the local press | :04:56. | :05:00. | |
and police were trying to manage the situation for the but any -- | :05:00. | :05:05. | |
for the benefit of local people, then the national press arrived and | :05:05. | :05:09. | |
it was a smash and grab. People from Bristol have been talking | :05:09. | :05:13. | |
about the Jo Yeates murder case and the relations between press and | :05:13. | :05:19. | |
police. It seems to be turning into a fight | :05:19. | :05:24. | |
to protect reputations. The police are fighting to protect theirs, and | :05:24. | :05:26. | |
journalists are fighting to protect theirs. | :05:26. | :05:32. | |
No question that is right. There is a lot at stake here. In the case of | :05:32. | :05:35. | |
Bristol and Jo Yeates, that is right in the middle of Levison's | :05:35. | :05:40. | |
concerns. It was such a big national story. The waiter has | :05:40. | :05:44. | |
handled by press and police is a matter of huge public concern. The | :05:44. | :05:50. | |
proposition that the police put forward today, that there had been | :05:50. | :05:54. | |
no off the record briefing by any police officer to any journalist, I | :05:54. | :05:59. | |
honestly doubt that would really bear scrutiny. If it is true, it is | :05:59. | :06:03. | |
amazing. It would be a thirst. Police are under pressure to show | :06:03. | :06:08. | |
they can control communications between themselves and the media. | :06:08. | :06:12. | |
You can understand that. People have to have complained that if | :06:12. | :06:16. | |
they tell police things, they will not read it in a paper the next | :06:16. | :06:21. | |
minute. It is important police have integrity. On the other hand, the | :06:21. | :06:24. | |
idea that all connections and communications between press and | :06:24. | :06:29. | |
police should be official and all the rest of it, that is scary. Mick | :06:30. | :06:34. | |
Davis, the Guardian journalist who has done most of the phone hacking | :06:34. | :06:38. | |
scandal, he has said that without off-the-record briefings, | :06:38. | :06:43. | |
unofficial, unauthorised briefings, from serving police officers of | :06:43. | :06:48. | |
people close to the job, he would never have got the story. It is | :06:48. | :06:53. | |
really difficult. The police need to control the flow of information | :06:53. | :06:57. | |
in the public interest. On the other hand, it police have complete | :06:57. | :07:01. | |
control and journalists do not, the public will be under informed. | :07:01. | :07:05. | |
So how on earth will he decide who is right? | :07:05. | :07:11. | |
A do not live. Certainly when it comes down to the nuts and bolts of | :07:11. | :07:16. | |
how relationships are organised on the ground. We have to hope he | :07:16. | :07:20. | |
takes a public interest you, rather than a police corporate fear. A | :07:20. | :07:26. | |
police corporate view is controlled communications. The public interest | :07:26. | :07:29. | |
you would say, police need integrity and to behave properly, | :07:29. | :07:34. | |
they should not be speaking out of time, but please do not stop what | :07:34. | :07:37. | |
Mary police officers talking to journalists about things that the | :07:37. | :07:44. | |
police are doing wrong -- ordinary police officers. | :07:44. | :07:48. | |
Police have named the haulier from Somerset killed in the crash on the | :07:48. | :07:50. | |
M5 near Birmingham. 65-year-old William Mapstone from Wells was the | :07:50. | :07:53. | |
second person to die as a result of the accident on Saturday. It's | :07:53. | :07:57. | |
thought his lorry ran into the back of a coach which had broken down | :07:57. | :07:59. | |
and was stationary on a lane of the motorway. | :07:59. | :08:03. | |
A row has broken out over who allowed a child rapist from Bath to | :08:03. | :08:05. | |
evade justice for more than a decade. Lewis Knight was jailed | :08:05. | :08:10. | |
yesterday for 15 years for abusing three teenagers. He had his | :08:10. | :08:12. | |
passport confiscated when he was arrested in 1999, but he | :08:12. | :08:16. | |
immediately applied for and received another one. He then | :08:16. | :08:26. | |
:08:26. | :08:28. | ||
jumped bail and fled to Spain. Clinton Rogers reports. | :08:28. | :08:32. | |
How did it happen, and who was to blame? How did this man get a new | :08:32. | :08:35. | |
passport after his original was confiscated by the police? How was | :08:35. | :08:38. | |
it so easy for him to flee to Spain and escape justice for 11 years? | :08:38. | :08:41. | |
Bath NP Don Foster, in whose constituency these offences took | :08:41. | :08:49. | |
place, certainly wants answers. think anybody would have assumed | :08:49. | :08:53. | |
that if a passport had been confiscated, the relevant passport | :08:53. | :08:58. | |
authorities would have been notified immediately. I am deeply | :08:58. | :09:01. | |
concerned that they do not appear to have been notified, and I am | :09:01. | :09:06. | |
concerned to learn their does not appear to be a very clear procedure | :09:06. | :09:08. | |
by what should happen in those circumstances. | :09:08. | :09:11. | |
Knight's victims were all paper girls at a shop in Whiteway in the | :09:11. | :09:15. | |
late 1990s. When he was arrested and charged in 1999, his passport | :09:15. | :09:20. | |
was confiscated and he was released on bail. But he never intended to | :09:20. | :09:23. | |
face justice. Instead he sat down, filled out a form for a new | :09:23. | :09:29. | |
passport, and got one. Simple. All he did was say the original had | :09:29. | :09:32. | |
been stolen. The Identity and Passport Service | :09:32. | :09:35. | |
have told us that the police never alerted them about Knight, so they | :09:35. | :09:40. | |
had no idea his original passport had been confiscated. The question | :09:40. | :09:43. | |
is, should they have been told? I have repeatedly asked the Passport | :09:43. | :09:45. | |
Service that question and repeatedly they've refused to | :09:45. | :09:52. | |
answer it. And the protocol is no clearer when you read this | :09:52. | :09:55. | |
statement from Avon and Somerset police, which in essence says that | :09:55. | :09:58. | |
the Identity and Passport Service is routinely informed of cases like | :09:58. | :10:04. | |
this. What it doesn't make clear, and what the police won't tell me, | :10:04. | :10:09. | |
is whether it happened in the case of Lewis Knight. But child | :10:09. | :10:11. | |
protection experts say there are procedures that should have been | :10:11. | :10:19. | |
followed. Just giving him another passport and not checking, I think | :10:19. | :10:24. | |
that is appalling! There is a process which anybody on Bill | :10:24. | :10:27. | |
should have been notified to the Passport Agency. | :10:27. | :10:30. | |
So while the anger over Lewis Knight's case is clear, little else | :10:30. | :10:40. | |
You're watching BBC Points West on this lovely Tuesday evening. And | :10:40. | :10:46. | |
stay with us as there's lots more to bring you tonight. | :10:46. | :10:51. | |
We have had a glorious run of sunny weather here. Tomorrow, we might be | :10:51. | :10:56. | |
to our best ever match day. Joining me later to find out more. | :10:56. | :11:01. | |
We are in the village of Marshfield, which could be the most musical | :11:01. | :11:09. | |
placed in the West. PLAYS THREE BLIND MICE. | :11:09. | :11:12. | |
First, though, more news from the West, and police in Gloucestershire | :11:12. | :11:16. | |
have raided a series of homes as part of a crackdown on drugs and | :11:16. | :11:18. | |
organized crime. Operation Zephyr has already seen them seize ten | :11:18. | :11:21. | |
kilos of cocaine and make 30 arrests, working with all the | :11:21. | :11:31. | |
:11:31. | :11:34. | ||
forces across the region. Andrew Plant has more. | :11:34. | :11:37. | |
While most of Gloucester is still sleeping, dozens of officers are | :11:37. | :11:42. | |
giving suspected criminals in a surprise early alarms. This | :11:42. | :11:45. | |
morning's raids are targeting more than 10 properties in the city, | :11:45. | :11:52. | |
looking for suspected dealers. Today is about looking at those | :11:52. | :11:55. | |
criminals linked into the organised crime group and sending a message | :11:55. | :11:58. | |
to them that even if they're on the periphery of organised crime, we | :11:58. | :12:06. | |
will seek them down and live to prosecute them. 6.50am. The front | :12:06. | :12:09. | |
door has been smashed in a while officers block the back door. | :12:09. | :12:12. | |
Sniffer dogs are later called to the property to check inside for | :12:12. | :12:15. | |
any drugs. The occupant was later arrested on suspicion of possessing | :12:15. | :12:23. | |
a class B substance and taken for questioning. The idea is to crack | :12:23. | :12:26. | |
down on the supply of drugs across the south-west. While this raid was | :12:26. | :12:28. | |
taking place in Gloucester, several more were happening simultaneously | :12:28. | :12:31. | |
across the city. Elsewhere, police have found what they suspect is | :12:31. | :12:35. | |
cocaine, but not the large quantities they were looking for. | :12:35. | :12:38. | |
They decide to search the suspect's vehicle, but without the keys there | :12:38. | :12:48. | |
is only one way inside. The operations have been happening | :12:48. | :12:52. | |
across the south-west for almost 12 months. So far, 17 people have been | :12:52. | :12:56. | |
charged with serious drug trafficking offences. It is, the | :12:56. | :12:59. | |
police say, stemming the flow of drugs here at the very beginning of | :12:59. | :13:08. | |
the supply. Planning laws in England and Wales | :13:08. | :13:11. | |
have changed dramatically this lunchtime. | :13:11. | :13:14. | |
The rules which govern where and how the West is developed have | :13:14. | :13:16. | |
today changed dramatically. New planning guidelines were announced | :13:16. | :13:18. | |
in Parliament, and came into immediate effect. There'd been | :13:18. | :13:20. | |
controversy in the autumn with accusations that the Government's | :13:20. | :13:23. | |
initial proposals favoured developers. Now all sides are | :13:24. | :13:26. | |
studying the revised rules. Our political editor Paul Barltrop is | :13:26. | :13:29. | |
here. Paul, there had been much concern that this might be a | :13:29. | :13:38. | |
developers' charter. How's it being seen? There was one key phrase. It | :13:38. | :13:42. | |
was a presumption in favour of sustainable development. That | :13:42. | :13:46. | |
consent people enormously. It is in the final document, which has gone | :13:46. | :13:53. | |
into law. He said they will be a special protection, some areas of | :13:53. | :14:02. | |
green fields -- areas of green belt and so on. There is concern about | :14:02. | :14:08. | |
other things. Is it not -- he is seen not concern about the 60 % of | :14:08. | :14:13. | |
green land in England which is of no designation? What will he do to | :14:13. | :14:19. | |
make sure they have equal or similar protection to green belt? | :14:19. | :14:21. | |
My Honourable Friend will be pleased to see the revised | :14:21. | :14:25. | |
framework includes a recognition of the intrinsic value of the | :14:25. | :14:32. | |
countryside, reflecting its beauty. It will have protection. Perhaps as | :14:32. | :14:35. | |
importantly, what about the reaction outside Parliament? Said | :14:35. | :14:40. | |
to me from people like builders, there has been a broadly positive | :14:40. | :14:46. | |
reaction. From conservation groups, rather mixed. Some are concerned it | :14:46. | :14:49. | |
leaves the door open for large- scale developments in country areas. | :14:49. | :14:57. | |
This was a reaction from the Woodland Trust. We are disappointed. | :14:57. | :15:02. | |
Their row over 200 would loans under threat from planning | :15:02. | :15:06. | |
applications -- there are over 200 woodlands and a threat. Each | :15:06. | :15:12. | |
individual plan will have to be looked at on a site by site basis. | :15:12. | :15:15. | |
We were led to believe the government would be green and this, | :15:15. | :15:20. | |
and protect habitats, but they have failed. They have produced more | :15:20. | :15:24. | |
than 1,000 pages of regulations down to just over 50. That means | :15:24. | :15:34. | |
:15:34. | :15:35. | ||
there is a lot of ambiguity. Councils may... It may well end up | :15:35. | :15:38. | |
being fought in the courts. Thank you. | :15:38. | :15:40. | |
Scientists in Bristol are teaming up with colleagues in Brazil to | :15:40. | :15:43. | |
tackle one of the UK's biggest killers. High blood pressure is a | :15:43. | :15:46. | |
major factor in thousands of deaths every year, but now experts are | :15:46. | :15:49. | |
looking at alternative treatments. Matthew Hill has been trying them | :15:49. | :15:55. | |
out. This man has suffered from high | :15:55. | :16:04. | |
blood pressure for more than 30 years. His medication is no longer | :16:04. | :16:07. | |
working. I have had to come off beta-blockers recently because they | :16:07. | :16:15. | |
slowed my heart too much. It seemed to wake my bladder up at night, so | :16:15. | :16:21. | |
I did not get a lot of sleep. High blood pressure affects around | :16:21. | :16:25. | |
1 billion people across the world. Apart from lifestyle changes, it is | :16:25. | :16:31. | |
mainly treated through medication. Around one in three patients | :16:31. | :16:34. | |
stopped taking the tablets because it no longer works and there are | :16:34. | :16:41. | |
side-effects. That is why some people like Bob are coming to a new | :16:41. | :16:45. | |
clinic for a unique scientific study. I thought I would give the | :16:45. | :16:55. | |
clinic a go myself. The scientist is trying to find a nerve in my leg. | :16:55. | :16:58. | |
She is giving me mini electric shocks, and my toes are beginning | :16:58. | :17:01. | |
to move against my will. It is all part of a research project to | :17:01. | :17:04. | |
investigate how brain activity goes directly through this nerve to the | :17:04. | :17:11. | |
vessels that control blood pressure. Once my nerve is located, it is | :17:11. | :17:14. | |
time for a tiny needle to be inserted into it to pick up | :17:14. | :17:18. | |
electrical activities. We are trying to calm down the nerve | :17:18. | :17:21. | |
activity that is targeting the blood vessels which seems to be | :17:21. | :17:27. | |
extremely excitable in patients with high blood pressure. It is | :17:27. | :17:34. | |
widely known that stress can increase blood pressure. That is | :17:34. | :17:37. | |
why patients with hypertension can be artificially made to reduce | :17:37. | :17:42. | |
stress by reducing the amount of oxygen they breathe. If the | :17:42. | :17:45. | |
scientists can understand what is going on with the nerve signals, | :17:45. | :17:55. | |
:17:55. | :17:57. | ||
they may be able to reduce them, even by minor surgery. | :17:57. | :18:00. | |
One of the biggest events to mark the Queen's Diamond Jubilee this | :18:00. | :18:09. | |
year, will be a floating cavalcade on the Thames. 1,000 vessels will | :18:09. | :18:12. | |
take part, among them a sailing trow. Hundreds of them once plied | :18:12. | :18:20. | |
the River Severn carrying tonnes of cargo. But now a brand new one is | :18:20. | :18:22. | |
being built to proudly take its place in the Diamond Jubilee | :18:22. | :18:29. | |
pageant. Here's Steve Knibbs. There is a long history of shipbuilding | :18:29. | :18:33. | |
here. Nowadays, it is just repair and restoration. There is a very | :18:33. | :18:37. | |
special project happening over there that tax back to the | :18:37. | :18:41. | |
shipbuilding roots of Gloucester Docks. | :18:41. | :18:44. | |
Trows were used to transport goods along the Rivers Severn and Wye up | :18:44. | :18:49. | |
until the 19th century. This was the last time one was seen on the | :18:49. | :18:53. | |
water. But in a warehouse at a Gloucester shipbuilders, a | :18:53. | :18:56. | |
wonderful replica is almost finished. This is a unique project | :18:56. | :19:03. | |
for the team who are normally used to restoration work. This trow is | :19:03. | :19:06. | |
only one of its type in the world and the shipwright's have been | :19:06. | :19:10. | |
using a wreck on the banks of the River Severn as a guide. Apart from | :19:10. | :19:20. | |
:19:20. | :19:21. | ||
electric drills, the construction is as authentic as possible. The | :19:21. | :19:24. | |
project has been paid for by an anonymous donor from Herefordshire, | :19:24. | :19:32. | |
and timber from estates there have been used to build the trow. All | :19:32. | :19:39. | |
adding up to something that will be very special. Why not build a | :19:39. | :19:44. | |
historical replica of a trow, which was once hugely significant for the | :19:44. | :19:51. | |
region? It is not like building houses. We all of building bones | :19:51. | :19:58. | |
and sailing boats. All of us sale. It is what we do. We have been | :19:58. | :20:02. | |
following progress of the trow over the last few months. Let's say how | :20:02. | :20:08. | |
she is looking. Magnificent. She is in the process of being boiled. | :20:08. | :20:13. | |
Later this week, it will be launched for the first time. Then | :20:13. | :20:20. | |
there is a job of competing the oarsmen and women took Route B trow | :20:20. | :20:27. | |
along the Thames. -- men and women who will wrote their trail along | :20:27. | :20:37. | |
:20:37. | :20:39. | ||
the Thames. We all know how infuriating sat nav | :20:39. | :20:46. | |
systems can be. The driver of this lorry from Poland went up is now | :20:46. | :20:51. | |
wrote road in Clifton, and he got well and truly stuck. Cliftonville | :20:51. | :20:56. | |
is known locally as a short cut, but not if you are a 40 tonne | :20:56. | :21:04. | |
articulated lorry. That was stuck good and proper. | :21:04. | :21:10. | |
It could be another good night for Bristol Rovers fans. If their team | :21:10. | :21:13. | |
beats Aldershot, they could move into the top half of the League Two | :21:13. | :21:16. | |
table. Rovers are unbeaten in their last four games, and beat promotion | :21:16. | :21:18. | |
chasing Southend at the weekend. Manager Mark McGhee believes they | :21:19. | :21:22. | |
need to win tonight if they want to finish in the top ten. | :21:22. | :21:25. | |
In Snooker, Bristol's Judd Trump has made a good start to the | :21:25. | :21:28. | |
defence of his China Open title. The 22-year-old beat Jimmy White by | :21:28. | :21:36. | |
five frames to three in Beijing. He started well, making a break of 122. | :21:36. | :21:38. | |
And despite a fight-back from the veteran White, Trump completed | :21:38. | :21:44. | |
victory to win a place in the last Now, it's known around the West for | :21:44. | :21:54. | |
:21:54. | :21:55. | ||
its ice cream. Now the village of Marshfield near Bath is trying to | :21:55. | :21:57. | |
strike a more musical note. The residents have challenged | :21:57. | :22:00. | |
themselves to learn an instrument in six months and take an exam, all | :22:00. | :22:04. | |
to raise money for a charity close to their hearts. Jules Hyam has | :22:04. | :22:13. | |
more. In the picturesque village of | :22:13. | :22:22. | |
Marshfield, there is definitely something in the air. Music. Or at | :22:22. | :22:28. | |
least something like it. Around almost every corner, someone is | :22:28. | :22:36. | |
getting to grips with a musical instrument. It is a village with a | :22:36. | :22:46. | |
:22:46. | :22:51. | ||
unique sound. I did say they were all learners - some of these guys | :22:51. | :22:59. | |
are playing a note for the very first time. I am learning the | :22:59. | :23:03. | |
guitar. I am finding it a bit big, but I am sure I will get used to it | :23:03. | :23:09. | |
in time. I am not very familiar with what is happening yet. I do | :23:09. | :23:14. | |
not think it will take long to sort out the basics. Hello. I am Natalie | :23:14. | :23:24. | |
Anne Diamond teacher. I am learning to play the flute. -- I am a | :23:24. | :23:30. | |
teacher. For the children to see us learning to play an instrument, | :23:30. | :23:36. | |
they have a buzz from it. It is fantastic. We are doing it for a | :23:36. | :23:45. | |
fantastic cars. That cause is almost halfway around the world. | :23:45. | :23:55. | |
:23:55. | :23:55. | ||
Marshfield has a long standing link with an island in the Indian Ocean. | :23:55. | :24:01. | |
We raised about �22,000 a year. That goes a long way in India. | :24:01. | :24:07. | |
Their health care on the island is extremely basic. Just about | :24:07. | :24:10. | |
anything that requires further investigation has to go to the | :24:10. | :24:13. | |
mainland. The poverty level is so great, they do not have the money | :24:13. | :24:19. | |
to do this. That is where this comes in. Music that can literally | :24:19. | :24:23. | |
changed lives. By the time they are at Grade One standard in October, | :24:23. | :24:33. | |
:24:33. | :24:33. | ||
it might even be music you would enjoy listening to. | :24:34. | :24:38. | |
We will have to get them in the studio in six months to see how | :24:38. | :24:42. | |
they got on! Do you play anything? | :24:42. | :24:45. | |
Grade 7 flute, made, but that was a long time ago! | :24:45. | :24:49. | |
Another beautiful day. Jemma is on the roof for us tonight. Is it | :24:49. | :24:59. | |
:24:59. | :25:01. | ||
Indeed it is. Glorious sunshine. It has been a lovely day today. It is | :25:01. | :25:06. | |
lovely on the growth. I do not even need a jacket. More happy days to | :25:06. | :25:13. | |
come as we going to tomorrow. We could be in for a record-breaking | :25:13. | :25:18. | |
day. In 1965, we had the warmest ever match day. Early indications | :25:18. | :25:28. | |
:25:28. | :25:38. | ||
It will be another warm, sunny day. It is all due to the jet stream. | :25:38. | :25:41. | |
The change comes at the end of the week as the high pressure begins to | :25:41. | :25:46. | |
shift and we will see a slightly different afloat coming in. A bit | :25:46. | :25:56. | |
:25:56. | :25:59. | ||
more northerly. That will change things. So will a high pressure. A | :25:59. | :26:04. | |
definite change is on the way for the weekend. Not so the rest of the | :26:04. | :26:09. | |
week. Tonight, we are looking at another clay and chilli 1. Clear | :26:09. | :26:14. | |
skies in the day, great, clear skies overnight, the temperatures | :26:14. | :26:21. | |
set with the sun. Temperatures will drop pretty sharply. We will get | :26:21. | :26:31. | |
:26:31. | :26:33. | ||
some rest and fog. We will get local frost in many places. It is a | :26:33. | :26:41. | |
cold start tomorrow. It will be low single figures. Then it, the | :26:41. | :26:45. | |
sunshine lifts those highs and we are looking at what I think will be | :26:45. | :26:51. | |
one of the warmest days of the year. It is just a question of whether we | :26:51. | :26:58. | |
will beat that 21.7, which will round up to 22. Let's sea. After | :26:59. | :27:03. | |
that, a clear, still might. Temperatures will go no tomorrow | :27:03. | :27:12. | |
night, as they have all week. Thursday and Friday, the pattern | :27:12. | :27:19. | |
does remain the same. Unbroken sunshine. Change comes at the | :27:19. | :27:29. | |
:27:29. | :27:29. | ||
weekend as a high pressure shift Do you think I will be OK having | :27:29. | :27:32. | |
tomorrow off? Yes. | :27:32. | :27:37. |
