Essex Police under investig`tion. is all from us.

:00:00.:00:00.

They took nine months to interview a deputy head who had thous`nds

:00:00.:00:08.

A day later, Martin Goldberg was found ddad.

:00:09.:00:20.

It seems to me information `bout a teacher like that with interest in

:00:21.:00:28.

child abuse imagery should have been interviewed more quickly.

:00:29.:00:30.

Why it's been a bumper year for our tourism industry, worth ?6

The disabled veteran making a name for himself in the sport

:00:34.:00:37.

And I am with the tornado force in southern Afghanistan where they will

:00:38.:00:47.

be among the British combat forces to pull out of here by the dnd of

:00:48.:00:49.

the year. More on the deputy head teacher from

:00:50.:00:56.

Essex who was found dead, after hundreds of indecent images of boys

:00:57.:01:00.

were found on his home comptter It has now emerged

:01:01.:01:05.

the police knew in November last year he had been buying images of

:01:06.:01:08.

naked teenagers over the internet. Martin Goldberg taught at Thorpe

:01:09.:01:12.

Hall School in Southend, and died at his home three weeks ago, after

:01:13.:01:15.

the police had interviewed him. He'd filmed boys

:01:16.:01:20.

in the school changing rooms, The Independent Police Complaints

:01:21.:01:22.

Commission is investigating the police handling of the case

:01:23.:01:30.

and their delay in taking action. The 23 years, Martin Goldberg was a

:01:31.:01:44.

respected maths teacher herd at Thorpe Hall School, the deptty

:01:45.:01:50.

head. Staff and pupils had been mourning his unexpected loss. But it

:01:51.:01:54.

now turns out he had been abusing their trust.

:01:55.:02:01.

Police at Thorpe Hall School where today the head was absorbing the

:02:02.:02:06.

disturbing revelations about it once trusted colleague.

:02:07.:02:10.

Martin Goldberg work if a 23 years with an exemplary record. I thought

:02:11.:02:13.

I knew him very well but it turned out he was living a double life

:02:14.:02:17.

Do you feel betrayed by what he has done?

:02:18.:02:22.

When you look back at many of the things that have happened

:02:23.:02:27.

and you wonder how he could have done what he did.

:02:28.:02:30.

I have spoken to many peopld from our current staff and previously,

:02:31.:02:38.

and nobody knew anything like this would happen. They are as ddeply

:02:39.:02:42.

shocked as I am. Martin Goldberg was found dead at this home, a day after

:02:43.:02:47.

Essex Police questioned him about buying indecent material online from

:02:48.:02:50.

abroad. At the home, police found a camera

:02:51.:02:56.

hidden in a bag. It had been used at the Southend leisure centre to form

:02:57.:03:00.

boys in the changing rooms. There were more than 400 indecent images

:03:01.:03:05.

of boys aged between nine and 1 . Police say the hidden camer` had

:03:06.:03:10.

also been used in the school changing rooms and at two other

:03:11.:03:18.

unidentified locations. The centre is owned by the council.

:03:19.:03:23.

We are all deeply upset. Imlediately the council was informed of the

:03:24.:03:27.

situation, we responded to support the school and any family is

:03:28.:03:32.

concerned. It has emerged police in Canada had alerted Essex Police that

:03:33.:03:37.

Martin Goldberg had bought hndecent videos, but Essex Police will did

:03:38.:03:41.

not question him for several months.

:03:42.:03:46.

This afternoon, Essex Policd held a conference.

:03:47.:03:48.

You have been asked repeatedly to say whether there was a nind`month

:03:49.:03:52.

delay in questioning Mr Goldberg. Why would you answer whether there

:03:53.:03:56.

was a nine`month delay? The issue has been referred to the

:03:57.:04:00.

Independent Police Complaints Commission. We are awaiting

:04:01.:04:04.

direction from them as to what we can disclose. Back at school, staff

:04:05.:04:09.

and pupils still cannot belheve their deputy head lead such a

:04:10.:04:12.

disturbing double life for lore than two decades.

:04:13.:04:20.

That operation in Canada was the same one which exposed the

:04:21.:04:26.

Addbenbrooke's Doctor Miles Bradbury as a paedophile. But the IPCC is now

:04:27.:04:31.

looking at how long it took Essex Police to act on the inform`tion

:04:32.:04:33.

they received about Martin Goldberg. Earlier,

:04:34.:04:36.

I spoke to the Essex Police and Crime Commissioner Nick Alston about

:04:37.:04:38.

the delay in the police response. He said the investigation would

:04:39.:04:42.

uncover exactly what had happened, after the teacher's name was passed

:04:43.:04:44.

on by CEOP. I need to confirm this,

:04:45.:04:55.

if he had been assessed as low risk, It seems to me information like that

:04:56.:04:58.

about a teacher with an intdrest in child abuse imagery, shotld have

:04:59.:05:04.

been pursued more quickly. This was the same batch

:05:05.:05:09.

of information given to CEOP from Canada that included

:05:10.:05:13.

the doctor in Addbenbrooke's. When Suffolk Police were told about

:05:14.:05:22.

him, they acted immediately. It seems odd Essex could not do

:05:23.:05:27.

the same. If I were a parent or one of

:05:28.:05:30.

the victims, I would be verx cross. The thought of a person

:05:31.:05:38.

in responsibility going to some lengths it appears to take hmages,

:05:39.:05:43.

videos, of boys, is shocking. Everybody

:05:44.:05:47.

in Essex needs an answer and I want to make sure we get those answers,

:05:48.:05:50.

and we look at what happened Surely the job someone has hs

:05:51.:05:53.

of utmost relevance. Whatever grade of material ht is,

:05:54.:06:02.

if they are worrying picturds and someone is with children

:06:03.:06:05.

on a daily basis, My hope is we will find

:06:06.:06:07.

that ordinarily it does. This may have been a failing,

:06:08.:06:20.

a process failing, we don't know. We need to make sure whatevdr

:06:21.:06:23.

was wrong is put right. Yes, anybody in a position

:06:24.:06:31.

of responsibility with regular access to young children who is

:06:32.:06:34.

shown to have an interest in child abuse imagery, of course it

:06:35.:06:36.

should be followed up quickly. 35 names were handed to Essdx Police

:06:37.:06:40.

from CEOP last September, are you aware of what else has

:06:41.:06:47.

happened regarding the others? Essex Police have been workhng hard

:06:48.:06:50.

on those cases, action has `lready I hope this is a case

:06:51.:06:53.

which unfortunately slipped through This has knocked my confidence,

:06:54.:06:58.

and I would expect the Chief Constable to put right

to the waterline. How one young war veteran

:12:47.:12:49.

is making waves. Since 2001, thousands of soldiers

:12:50.:13:09.

and aircrews from this region have served and fought in Afghanhstan.

:13:10.:13:12.

Nearly 70 lost their lives, and hundreds more suffered terrhble

:13:13.:13:14.

injuries from bombs and minds. But now, the UK mission is almost over.

:13:15.:13:17.

Our defence reporter Alex Dtnlop has been to Afghanistan, to see the

:13:18.:13:20.

drawdown for himself. In thd first of three special reports, wd focus

:13:21.:13:23.

on the Tornado jets from RAF Marham in Norfolk, which have been there

:13:24.:13:26.

for five years. Every day and night, they start up

:13:27.:13:33.

and move out. By Christmas, the region's tornadoes will fly their

:13:34.:13:39.

last from Kandahar. They have been here more than a decade. 31 Squadron

:13:40.:13:46.

will be the last to leave. Don't be false by the relaxdd

:13:47.:13:52.

banter, Jamie and his fellow airmen could be scrambled within mhnutes.

:13:53.:13:56.

We need to keep on our game but at the same time force ourselvds to

:13:57.:14:01.

relax so we are not burnt ott when the time comes.

:14:02.:14:09.

This may be a drill, but two tornadoes are always primed for

:14:10.:14:13.

take`off within minutes. It takes 45 minutes to cross

:14:14.:14:18.

Afghanistan but with top ups from tankers each can last up to eight

:14:19.:14:22.

hours. Meanwhile, in the heat of the

:14:23.:14:27.

hangars, a huge team of enghneers work in temperatures reaching 5

:14:28.:14:30.

Celsius, to keep these plands in the air.

:14:31.:14:36.

It can be complex. There ard better systems out there. It still does the

:14:37.:14:43.

job. On his first tour, he got bombed ``

:14:44.:14:54.

bombs on insurgents. We are more likely to use mobile

:14:55.:15:02.

weapons. This is no weapon of choice?

:15:03.:15:13.

The role of reconnaissance fills the gap. The high`tech cameras can

detect disturbed earth by a bomb is buried, or even innocent activity

near a mosque. Jack is lookhng for signs of a drugs factory.

:15:24.:15:28.

In these areas, you can see these are normal food crops. Coffdy feels

`` you have to know where you are looking, the cultural background of

that country, to know their normal pattern of life.

:15:44.:15:48.

A lot of the time what you `re analysing is not suspicious.

:15:49.:15:54.

Most of the time, no. It is rare to see other activity.

:15:55.:15:58.

It is poignant 31 Squadron should be the last to be deployed herd.

:15:59.:16:04.

Afghanistan is a part of its long history. At the end of the First

:16:05.:16:11.

World War, 31 Squadron was deployed here in 1990 as part of a British

:16:12.:16:19.

campaign against Afghan rebdls. You must have learned so many

:16:20.:16:24.

lessons from this? It has been an immensely beneficial

:16:25.:16:28.

learning experience, working with coalition partners, particularly in

:16:29.:16:32.

Kandahar, how to support thd army better. Those lessons will be

:16:33.:16:36.

carried forward into other operations. Before this operation

:16:37.:16:41.

has drawn down, another one 140 miles away over Iraq is drawing in

:16:42.:16:46.

the ageing tornadoes. This adaptable aircraft has fought

:16:47.:16:51.

in two Gulf wars and could be flying into a third.

:16:52.:16:55.

And tomorrow, Alex looks at the massive logistical

:16:56.:17:01.

exercise to pull out our colbat troops and equipment, after more

:17:02.:17:04.

The latest tourism figures `re out, and have been described as

:17:05.:17:09.

Here in the East, 200,000 pdople work in the industry,

:17:10.:17:13.

?6.2 billion goes into our dconomy from tourism every year, and the

:17:14.:17:17.

So far this year, visitor ntmbers are up, and they are spending more.

:17:18.:17:23.

This, from our chief reportdr, Kim Riley.

:17:24.:17:31.

Another beautiful morning in the forest on the Norfolk Suffolk

:17:32.:17:41.

border, the gateway to woodland trails looked after by the Forestry

:17:42.:17:43.

Commission. In terms of visitor numbers, it is a

:17:44.:17:49.

special year, attendance is on target to reach 400,000.

:17:50.:17:54.

A fantastic year. Superb we`ther, the best on record, 33% up on the

:17:55.:18:02.

previous four year average. A great day to stroll along the

:18:03.:18:07.

promenade at Southwold visiting `` and a weak sunshine that thhs is

:18:08.:18:11.

worth an extra ?80 million to tourism industry. The peer was taken

:18:12.:18:18.

over last year and it has bden pulling in the crowds.

:18:19.:18:22.

We are obviously affected bx the weather. We did lose a little in

:18:23.:18:26.

August. September has been `mazing for us.

:18:27.:18:34.

The incredible creation Tour appear like no other. This couple from

:18:35.:18:38.

London are on their first vhsit We have been to others but this is

:18:39.:18:46.

very striking, I like it. It is very special. People have very fond

:18:47.:18:50.

memories. In Essex, the county benefited from

:18:51.:18:54.

the arrival of the Tour de France in July.

:18:55.:18:57.

We saw so many people lining the streets. The weather helped stop it

:18:58.:19:03.

put us on the international stage. Everyone saw Essex in its bdst

:19:04.:19:08.

light. People have said thex did not realise Essex was like that, so

:19:09.:19:11.

rural, so much to see. At Whipsnade the Khutsishvili they

:19:12.:19:17.

have welcomed half a million visitors so far.

:19:18.:19:22.

We put a lot of that down to the weather being so great. It has been

:19:23.:19:33.

prolonged this year, summer has extended into September which helps.

:19:34.:19:39.

Reports say the Julie of thd final section of the A11 will givd a boost

:19:40.:19:42.

to attractions. Short breaks are on the up. And with

:19:43.:19:48.

the sunshine, has come confhdence. The ice in the Antarctic is very,

:19:49.:19:53.

very thick. In places, it's more

:19:54.:19:56.

than 4,000 metres deep. And, for years, no`one knew what the

:19:57.:19:58.

landscape looked like underneath. But,

:19:59.:20:02.

thanks to a scientist at thd British Antarctic Survey in Cambridge,

:20:03.:20:06.

we now have some stunning m`ps. And now, for the first time, they've

:20:07.:20:08.

been published in The Times Atlas. A map now printed

:20:09.:20:11.

in the most prestigious atl`s of The map is made using satellite

:20:12.:20:34.

data, radar from aircraft, It really shows important science

:20:35.:20:54.

on a global level. Being

in the Times Atlas shows growing recognition of the importance

:21:03.:21:04.

of this landscape under the ice Although it is totally inaccessible

:21:05.:21:06.

and we can never visit it, ht plays an important role in controlling

it raises sea levels globally. After a century of explorathon,

:21:58.:22:04.

some of the mysteries of this continent have now been

:22:05.:22:07.

uncovered by an extraordinary map. We've already heard tonight

:22:08.:22:17.

about the soldiers and airmdn from this region finally pulling out

:22:18.:22:19.

of Afghanistan. Owen Pick from Suffolk servdd there

:22:20.:22:22.

with the Royal Anglian Regilent and, in 2010, he had his right ldg

:22:23.:22:25.

amputated below the knee after But Owen refused to let

:22:26.:22:30.

the injury beat him. Instead, he set his heart

:22:31.:22:36.

on becoming a champion in the sport of wakeboarding, and now he's one

:22:37.:22:39.

of the best in the country. For many ex`soldiers, the scars

:22:40.:22:44.

of war are hard to overcome. But for Owen Pick,

:22:45.:22:52.

his life has never been better. Some people think life changed

:22:53.:22:55.

in a bad way but, for me personally, If I hadn't have lost my leg,

:22:56.:22:58.

I wouldn't have the opportunity to do what H do now,

:22:59.:23:02.

and living this crazy life. Owen has the wakeboarding btg,

and receive my medal. Three months into his first tour

of Afghanistan, aged just 18, Owen stepped on an explosive devhce,

shattering his right leg and foot. He took the difficult decishon
