Good evening. but now on BBC One, it's time

Tensions are running high in the countryside tonight amid cl`ims of

Both sides claim they're victims of harassment and intimidathon.

Clinton Rogers has been following a group dedicated to

It was an odd game of cat and mouse on the moors of Somerset last night.

People filming was, filming them. Protest is writing down reghstration

numbers of people they think might be involved in the cull.

Intelligence gathering, thex said. Others call this harassment and

intimidation. This farmer's wife whose land is in the Gloucestershire

cull zone told us that life is unbearable since the cull started.

We walk around our home in darkness because as soon as we turned the

light on to go to bed or go into the sitting room their tortures come

into the windows. It has got that bad. The campaigners say thdy are

being targeted as well. Two of their cars have had their tyres slashed.

Last night we followed a protest group prepared to take direct action

to disrupt the cull. They are better equipped this year. Night vhsion

cameras back can pick up body heat a kilometre away. They think they have

spotted a marksman in the fheld below. The TAC tick? Make a noise

and hope the marksman leaves. And then, check that he has, evdn if

that does mean crossing private land even going through a farmyard and

checking every corner. So that is a success? Yes, moving them on is the

key part of what we are doing. Most of the protesters don't want their

identities known. Hunt saboteurs. If we see the law as unjust, that is

where we step across it. And that is fair? We don't damage peopld or

personal property. Towards the end of the night the police turn up and

two of the group are arrestdd. Although the police will not tell us

why. Today we learned they had been arrested on suspicion of carrying an

offensive weapon. Released without any further action. Doubtless they

will be out on patrol again tonight. Fewer people are out of work in

the West Country, according to the Just under 27,000 people were

claiming jobseekers allowance in August, a fall of 4.5%

since the previous month. Hundreds of patients wanting

a minor injuries unit at Cossham Hospital at Kingswood have

handed a 16,000 signature pdtition The protestors say NHS bossds

have broken promises. The Minor injuries we've got

at the moment is Yates or wd have to We were promised in this arda to

have care in our community, The local GPs who are responsible

for these decisions about how local money is spdnt are

saying, let's have another look at how we provide urgent care

and see whether a minor injtries Now,

I understand people's frustration. They are expecting that service to

be here and we made However, we need to make sure that

what we provide is as effective as possible and makes

the best use of our resourcds. The woman at the centre

of a famous book about life in the Cotswolds during

the 1920s died at the weekend. It would have been her

100th birthday today. Rosalind Buckland was Rosie

in Laurie Lee's vivid story, Cider with Rosie. But as shd

revealed in later life, not all For 60 years,

the identity of the mysterious Rosie that entranced a young Laurhe Lee

one summer's day, stayed a secret. Then she drew from under a sack

this stone jar of cider I took a long,

deep drink of this golden fhre and it was a drink that was the

first and the last of that time In the 70s, Rose was revealdd

as Rosalind Buckland. Her father

and Laurie's mother were cotsins In 2004, she spoke to

BBC Radio Gloucestershire about I knew he was doing it becatse

when I went home he said, What about the title

and the bit about you It's left for people to

interpret what went on. I think he exaggerated quitd

a bit because he said I got married Laurie had a drink of cider but I

didn't. Cider With Rosie tells of the highs

and lows of life as a child and Rosalind remembers the harsh winters

that Lee talks about. We only had one fire going, no

central heating and you had to fetch your water round the corner

from the tap. Today, on what would have bden her

100th birthday, her family had To Rosie, for a life well lhved

and to the truth about the cider. It's been one of my ambitions

in life to have cider with Rosie. I had to buy you a big bottle

of cider. That's all from us tonight, but I

will leave you with the weather Tonight is going to be unustally

warm for September, temperatures overnight no lower than arotnd 4

to 16 degrees for most of us. It gives the temperature

a head start tomorrow. It stays warm, there'll be some

sunshine but the risk of But fairly isolated,

most of us getting away with another Misty overnight,

the winds will drop and there will be mist and low cloud forming

by the morning and the night`time temperatures, as I said, no lower

than 15 and 16 degrees for lost Tomorrow morning we get

the low cloud lifting, the sunshine will come back out and

for most of us it will be a lovely day and a warm one with temperatures

between 22 and 24 degrees. Just the slight chance

of an isolated shower turning up. Probably the highest temper`tures

will be in Wiltshire The outlook is more unsettldd

by Friday. Heavy, possibly thundery showers

and as we head through the weekend, In a second, the forecast for the UK

but from us it is goodnight humid and Darren will look at the

national forecast. Odnight. Hello there. West was best today

with the cloud break up more readily. Readily. Tomorrow is almost

a e. West was best today with the cloud break up more readily.

Tomorrow is almost a repeat performance - dull, grey misty start

for many of us. Into the afternoon in particular we should see a bit

more warm sunshine. That low cloud that was glued to the North Sea

coasts today is pushing inland. Becoming much more extensive.

Extensive. More mist and fog in eastern Scotland and England. Coasts

and hills. Damp and drizzle. A warm night. We could catch a shower in

the far South West. Many places will start tomorrow dry but grey and

cloudy. The mist and fog will tend to lift and we'll see the sunshine

breaking through in more sheltered western areas, the Midlands and East

Anglia and the south-east of England. Lit warm up nicely. It will

warm up in Northern Ireland in the afternoon. It should be dry here. A

little sunshine for Scotland. Mainly in the west. Eastern areas, the

onshore breeze drags in the cloud and keeps it dull, cool and damp. A

similar story in much of
