There was disbelief and panic this morning as | :00:43. | :00:58. | |
a gas explosion ripped throtgh a quiet cul de sac in Milton Keynes. | :00:59. | :01:02. | |
Four homes were damaged in the blast and the fire service says it's | :01:03. | :01:06. | |
A number of families were evacuated from their homes | :01:07. | :01:09. | |
and a garage containing gas cylinders was completely destroyed. | :01:10. | :01:14. | |
An investigation is now unddrway, as Neil Bradford reports. | :01:15. | :01:23. | |
Taken in the minutes that followed the explosion, this video bdlies the | :01:24. | :01:26. | |
Just before 5am, residents were woken by an enormous bang. | :01:27. | :01:35. | |
How anyone wasn't injured I just don't know. | :01:36. | :01:49. | |
Debris has been strewn across a large area but it hs not | :01:50. | :01:53. | |
until you get to the back of the property that you re`lise | :01:54. | :01:56. | |
Believe it or not, that used to be a garage and two garddns. | :01:57. | :02:04. | |
No`one was seriously hurt in this morning's explosion. | :02:05. | :02:07. | |
Firefighters say it may havd been caused by a gas barbecte. | :02:08. | :02:11. | |
We believe it exploded inside the garage and blew `ll the | :02:12. | :02:15. | |
walls of the garage out and caused blast damage quite some considerable | :02:16. | :02:20. | |

Structural engineers have bden working with firefighters to make | :02:47. | :02:48. | |
the buildings secure but it is likely to be many more weeks | :02:49. | :02:52. | |
before this quiet cul`de`sac returns to any sense of normality. | :02:53. | :03:02. | |
The British Horseracing Authority has announced a zero`tolerance | :03:03. | :03:05. | |
approach to the use of anabolic steroids in the industry. | :03:06. | :03:09. | |
It's in response to horse r`cing's biggest ever doping scandal | :03:10. | :03:13. | |
involving Godolphin Stables in Newmarket a year ago. | :03:14. | :03:17. | |
Our reporter Ian Barmer joins us live from Newmarket now. | :03:18. | :03:20. | |
Cast your mind back to April the 22nd last year. The home of British | :03:21. | :03:36. | |
racing was hit by a bombshell. A doping scandal at the Godolphin | :03:37. | :03:41. | |
stables. Owned by the Royal family in the bag, it is the biggest horse | :03:42. | :03:47. | |
racing operation in Dubai. `` in the world. Today, the rules but I didn't | :03:48. | :03:52. | |
even further. This was a controversy that | :03:53. | :03:54. | |
shook racing to the core. Godolphin, a global brand ilmersed | :03:55. | :03:56. | |
in the biggest doping scand`l Today, in response, more th`n one | :03:57. | :03:59. | |
year later, British Horse R`cing Authority announced its toughest | :04:00. | :04:03. | |
policy yet on illegal sterohds. It presented an opportunity for us | :04:04. | :04:08. | |
to build on regulations and we have We have committed more resotrces to | :04:09. | :04:12. | |
it. We have conducted | :04:13. | :04:16. | |
an independent study. Now we have got one | :04:17. | :04:20. | |
of the strongest anti`doping and So I think people should have | :04:21. | :04:23. | |
confidence in British racing. They have introduced a complete ban | :04:24. | :04:31. | |
on steroids, with no excepthons Testing can be carried out | :04:32. | :04:34. | |
at any time and if steroids are given to horse there will bd | :04:35. | :04:38. | |
a 12 month ban from training Two Newmarket trainers paying | :04:39. | :04:41. | |
the price for illegal doping. Mohammed al Zarooni was | :04:42. | :04:49. | |
the first banned, for eight years. And then Gerard Butler, | :04:50. | :04:54. | |
banned for five years. Jon has trained horses | :04:55. | :04:57. | |
in Newmarket since 1995. He welcomes | :04:58. | :05:01. | |
today's ruling with open arls. It is very important that r`cing | :05:02. | :05:06. | |
is seen to have a zero tolerance We have seen in athletics, cycling, | :05:07. | :05:09. | |
that a sport which allows that to happen shoots itself in the foot | :05:10. | :05:17. | |
with public opinion, It means that the testers c`n | :05:18. | :05:21. | |
knock on your door any time, day or night, and say they want to | :05:22. | :05:27. | |
test your horses. There are 65 trainers here `nd | :05:28. | :05:30. | |
stacks around the country. There are lots of horses | :05:31. | :05:33. | |
and this is absolutely superb. The British Horse Racing Authority, | :05:34. | :05:37. | |
well done. These rules come into force | :05:38. | :05:39. | |
on the 1st of January next xear They are designed to make British | :05:40. | :05:48. | |
racing the cleanest in the world. With so many people getting so much | :05:49. | :06:07. | |
money on raising it public confidence. Today's rule ch`nges | :06:08. | :06:09. | |
seem to have gone down pretty well. Next the shocking CCTV foot`ge | :06:10. | :06:14. | |
which shows the moment a man was injured in a violdnt hit | :06:15. | :06:16. | |
and run attack in Luton. The police are treating it | :06:17. | :06:20. | |
as attempted murder and linking it to another attack last month in | :06:21. | :06:22. | |
which a man was shot in the back. You may find the pictures in | :06:23. | :06:26. | |
Fae Southwell's report upsetting. A car hits a pedestrian, | :06:27. | :06:32. | |
carrying him on the bonnet before Stunned, he crawls towards | :06:33. | :06:36. | |
the kerb and tries to stand up. The driver pauses for a momdnt, | :06:37. | :06:41. | |
then turns and speeds off. This is a hit and run that police | :06:42. | :06:47. | |
are treating as attempted mtrder. It follows another offence `lmost | :06:48. | :06:51. | |
three weeks earlier In that attack a man was shot | :06:52. | :06:54. | |
in Addington Way He'd been leaving a party | :06:55. | :07:00. | |
when he was ambushed by two masked men who blastdd him | :07:01. | :07:03. | |
in the back with pellets. The information we have got is that | :07:04. | :07:08. | |
both of these were targeted attacks and | :07:09. | :07:10. | |
that they were attempted murders. It is a miracle that both of them | :07:11. | :07:13. | |
have got such minor injuries. Anyone else may have died | :07:14. | :07:17. | |
from these injuries. Being hit in the back with | :07:18. | :07:23. | |
a shotgun, it is very lucky. Also the car incident, | :07:24. | :07:27. | |
with the way the victim has fallen, it has been fortunate he has not | :07:28. | :07:31. | |
landed on his head and been killed. In all, police are | :07:32. | :07:41. | |
investigating three incidents. The first, on May 25th, | :07:42. | :07:42. | |
is the shooting in Addington Way. This was followed on June 12th | :07:43. | :07:45. | |
by the hit and run near Radnor Road Then later that same night | :07:46. | :07:50. | |
a car crashed in Raven Hill. Detectives want to trace | :07:51. | :07:53. | |
a blonde man seen running away. These people probably have | :07:54. | :07:56. | |
a reputation. People may be frightened | :07:57. | :07:58. | |
of speaking to the police But these are such serious latters | :07:59. | :08:01. | |
that I would urge them to come forward and talk to us | :08:02. | :08:05. | |
in confidence. Police believe | :08:06. | :08:08. | |
the same people are responshble Anyone with information is `sked to | :08:09. | :08:10. | |

and Marius Siurkus, 32, havd been jailed for a number of burglaries in | :08:53. | :08:58. | |
the city over the last two xears. Both have consistently re`offended, | :08:59. | :09:02. | |
despite early release. MPs have accused the Environment | :09:03. | :09:08. | |
Department of leaving taxpaxers in the lurch after it changed hts mind | :09:09. | :09:11. | |
about funding a waste incindrator. The incinerator was set to | :09:12. | :09:15. | |
be built near King's Lynn. But terminating | :09:16. | :09:18. | |
the deal cost local council tax The head of DEFRA faced angry | :09:19. | :09:20. | |
questioning as she revealed there had been concerns about the scheme | :09:21. | :09:26. | |
long before the contract was signed. Experts in drug addiction s`y | :09:27. | :09:32. | |
there's been an unprecedentdd Today, big hitters from the police, | :09:33. | :09:36. | |
trading standards, the health service and a nulber | :09:37. | :09:42. | |
of charities met in Northampton The aim ` | :09:43. | :09:46. | |
to formulate a report that will be sent to Westminster in the hope that | :09:47. | :09:48. | |
Government will take action. Legal highs use ingredients often | :09:49. | :09:53. | |
found in plant food, that c`n be They mimic the affects | :09:54. | :09:57. | |
of illegal drugs like cannabis, To get round the law they are often | :09:58. | :10:02. | |
sold as plant food, According to the Kettering`based | :10:03. | :10:07. | |
charity Solve It, Last year, | :10:08. | :10:12. | |
it's estimated nearly 6,500 people were treated in hospital | :10:13. | :10:19. | |
and there've been dozens of deaths. Louise Hubball was at today's | :10:20. | :10:23. | |
conference in Northampton, the Legal highs, products often so new | :10:24. | :10:39. | |
there are dangers are not ydt known. In glossy packaging, and not allowed | :10:40. | :10:43. | |
to be sold for human consumption, people take them anyway. Today, the | :10:44. | :10:48. | |
first national conference w`s held in Northampton to bring togdther | :10:49. | :10:52. | |
people concerned to devise ` strategy to tackle them. It is | :10:53. | :10:57. | |
organised by a local charitx. The reason we wanted it in | :10:58. | :10:59. | |
Northamptonshire is because working with the County Council and others, | :11:00. | :11:06. | |
we want this county to be at the forefront of dealing with these | :11:07. | :11:09. | |
issues and not the backside. Had he seen an increase here? Therd has | :11:10. | :11:13. | |
been an increase in the county, without doubt, but no different to | :11:14. | :11:19. | |
any other parts of the country. Here, they are referred to `s new | :11:20. | :11:23. | |
psychoactive substances bec`use it is not the terror legal highs makes | :11:24. | :11:28. | |
them sound safe. We do not know what is in them have the time. Some can | :11:29. | :11:35. | |
be tested and found to cont`in controlled substances, class a | :11:36. | :11:37. | |
drugs. Others might be completely inert. There is not enough | :11:38. | :11:41. | |
information about what is in them and how to use them safely. We just | :11:42. | :11:46. | |
do not know that they are bding manufactured in a consistent manner. | :11:47. | :11:52. | |
This warning film will be played at Glastonbury this weekend and an idea | :11:53. | :11:56. | |
discussed today was abusing the awareness of GPs to spot thd | :11:57. | :12:01. | |
side`effects. I think the idea is that there are a lot of thel and the | :12:02. | :12:06. | |
growing number. However, we probably have a limited number of effects on | :12:07. | :12:11. | |
the body. I think GPs do not need to be overwhelmed by all the dhfferent | :12:12. | :12:15. | |
ones but had a good underst`nding about how the general classds might | :12:16. | :12:20. | |
affect the body. The number of 5`24 `year`old in the UK who havd taken | :12:21. | :12:25. | |
illegal highs that lack leg`l highs is thought to be 670,000. That is | :12:26. | :12:34. | |
the highest rate in Europe. `` who have taken legal highs. Leg`l highs | :12:35. | :12:39. | |
are worse than a lot of stuff. The messenger. People I know have had | :12:40. | :12:47. | |
really bad trips. There seels to be that of a problem in Northalpton, | :12:48. | :12:51. | |
just for what has been in the press. They do not know what they `re | :12:52. | :12:55. | |
messing with. What others wdre worried about the prevalencd of | :12:56. | :13:00. | |
legal highs. Meanwhile, the conference will report back to the | :13:01. | :13:01. | |
Prime Minister in two weeks. One ward and two hospital b`ys | :13:02. | :13:08. | |
remain closed at Addenbrooke's Hospital in | :13:09. | :13:10. | |

restricted at the hospital over The hospital has been limithng | :13:12. | :13:15. | |
visitors to two per patient. But now we can join David and Susie | :13:16. | :13:26. | |
for the rest of the programle. heavy rain is on the way. | :13:27. | :13:52. | |
And the man who found himself policing the 1966 World Cup final | :13:53. | :13:55. | |
because he said that he hatdd the beautiful game. | :13:56. | :13:59. | |
Now, in just ten days? time, the world's greatest cycle race hits | :14:00. | :14:02. | |
Stage three of the Tour de France starts in Cambridge a week | :14:03. | :14:06. | |
From there, the race winds hts way through Essex on its way to a finish | :14:07. | :14:10. | |
The region's economy is expdcting a boost, but it's not just local | :14:11. | :14:14. | |
businesses on the tour routd who are getting excited. | :14:15. | :14:23. | |
Hours of work, every attenthon to detail. Artwork fit for a khng. But | :14:24. | :14:33. | |
certainly the king of the Mountains. Pupils at the school in Cambridge | :14:34. | :14:35. | |
are leading the way to welcome the world's top cyclists. I am dxcited, | :14:36. | :14:45. | |
it is not everyday that you get an opportunity to do something like | :14:46. | :14:48. | |
this. We are painting all of the different jerseys that are hn the | :14:49. | :14:57. | |
Tour de France. It is very cool and I'm sure that no one else whll be | :14:58. | :15:02. | |
doing anything like this. Masterpiece finally finished, time | :15:03. | :15:06. | |
for it to take centre stage. The centrepiece of the school's art | :15:07. | :15:11. | |
exhibition at the front gatds, right on the true root itself. It is a | :15:12. | :15:20. | |
prestigious world events, hd would not want it on their doorstdp? I | :15:21. | :15:27. | |
will be there to see everything happening. We have a few boxs and | :15:28. | :15:30. | |
girls who live close enough to the school to say: They do not. We would | :15:31. | :15:34. | |
like more of them to do that. Hopefully one of the legacids of the | :15:35. | :15:41. | |
tour will be actually getting on the bike. This picturesque markdt town | :15:42. | :15:49. | |
in Essex will hardly know what has hit it. We have still got to make | :15:50. | :15:54. | |
the effort and make it look fantastic for when they are coming | :15:55. | :16:00. | |
through. This was my husband's bicycle and it has been sitting in | :16:01. | :16:05. | |
the garage for the last 20 xears so we thought we would get it out and | :16:06. | :16:11. | |
put it in the window. We have got mugs, tea towels, artwork bx local | :16:12. | :16:18. | |
artists is. What are your f`vourite? Probably the mugs and the tda table. | :16:19. | :16:24. | |
It picked the route. The rooted in red and the surrounding villages are | :16:25. | :16:30. | |
in blue. They are anticipathng a memorable, hopefully profit`ble day. | :16:31. | :16:41. | |
The Red Arrows have now been delighting crates for decadds. They | :16:42. | :16:45. | |
have become famous the world over. But what is not so well`known is the | :16:46. | :16:49. | |
story of their mascot, a golden retriever called Dusty. | :16:50. | :17:09. | |
This loyal labrador, the Red Arrows's first`ever mascot, was | :17:10. | :17:14. | |
loved by pilots and ground staff alike. But in May 1965, Dusty was | :17:15. | :17:23. | |
killed. He dashed out onto the runway and was struck by a plane is | :17:24. | :17:32. | |
it took off. He was buried near this spot and for half a century his | :17:33. | :17:36. | |
grave had been forgotten until now. Local schoolchildren Howard Dusty's | :17:37. | :17:41. | |
story and decided that it mtst have a happy ending. So they havd | :17:42. | :17:46. | |
scrubbed, painted and plantdd and after two weeks Dusty has a fitting | :17:47. | :17:56. | |
green. Today, his owner, former Flight Lieutenant Henry Prince, I | :17:57. | :18:04. | |
hear. I cannot thank you enough it is wonderful. If I said a more array | :18:05. | :18:09. | |
would burst into tears. What did you think of the story? We were sad but | :18:10. | :18:13. | |
when we started to get to know the story a bit, we were not th`t sad. | :18:14. | :18:20. | |
When we got told that we were cleaning it and meeting Henry we | :18:21. | :18:25. | |
were all quite excited. On the storm, you could not read mtch of | :18:26. | :18:29. | |
the writing. To begin with we thought it said 1901. Now it is much | :18:30. | :18:36. | |
brighter and it looks properly like a grave now, which is reallx lovely | :18:37. | :18:44. | |
and the children have thorotghly enjoyed it. It is almost as bad as | :18:45. | :18:48. | |
losing a member of the family. It is as bad. He was just a wonderful dog. | :18:49. | :18:56. | |
Finally, to end this. 's story, Dusty's very own red arrow, complete | :18:57. | :18:59. | |
with a poor print. `` paw print Now, do you remember a time | :19:00. | :19:11. | |
when England was good at football? 1966 and that World Cup win is | :19:12. | :19:14. | |
a long time ago. England beat West Germany 4`2 | :19:15. | :19:17. | |
in the final at Wembley, of course. Ken German from Cambridgeshhre was | :19:18. | :19:20. | |
22 at the time and saw the latch. And that would have been grdat, | :19:21. | :19:23. | |
only that Ken didn't like football. He got | :19:24. | :19:26. | |
in touch to tell us his story. No previous international, no cup | :19:27. | :19:45. | |
final matched this event, the final of the World Cup. | :19:46. | :19:53. | |
It was July the 30th, 1966, a day that Ken German remembers wdll. All | :19:54. | :19:58. | |
we've had been cancelled. They said, all of those who like footb`ll, take | :19:59. | :20:03. | |
one step forward. Two of us were left on the line. Ken German loved | :20:04. | :20:09. | |
cars and bikes, he hated football, so being picked for crowd control at | :20:10. | :20:16. | |
Wembley was a blow. You werd picked because you did not like football? | :20:17. | :20:21. | |
Absolutely. I could face thd crowd and look at them and find mtch more | :20:22. | :20:24. | |
interest than that and in the food bowl. If you look at the old films | :20:25. | :20:31. | |
today, you can see some hubbub around the pitch. But can you | :20:32. | :20:36. | |
remember any of the goals actually going on? I can, yes, but they did | :20:37. | :20:42. | |
not mean as much to me as they would to some other people. Do yot know | :20:43. | :20:47. | |
who the players were? Yes, H did know Bobby Miller, and Sir Geoff | :20:48. | :20:54. | |
Hurst, because another of mx colleagues were West Ham fans `` | :20:55. | :21:06. | |
Bobby Moore. Ken German joined the celebrations that night and woke up | :21:07. | :21:12. | |
with a hangover the next dax. Some years later he met a Brazilhan | :21:13. | :21:16. | |
footballer in the pub. He dhd not know his name, but it turned out | :21:17. | :21:27. | |
that it was Pele. We loved Ken German's story, if you have a story | :21:28. | :21:32. | |
about the World Cup, it is not too late to let me know. Ken has not | :21:33. | :21:38. | |
seen another football game since, I believe, but I suppose if you only | :21:39. | :21:43. | |
had to see one game of football in your life, the World Cup final of | :21:44. | :21:48. | |
1966 would not be a bad chohce. We can feed off that a little bit | :21:49. | :21:50. | |
now, country? `` can't we? Low`pressure moving in, a b`nd of | :21:51. | :22:09. | |
rain moving in this evening and overnight. Some rain moving into | :22:10. | :22:20. | |
southern and western countids. Through this evening it will start | :22:21. | :22:23. | |
to head northwards, places like Norfolk make not seasoned thll after | :22:24. | :22:28. | |
midnight. As it goes northw`rds it will become more broken and patchy. | :22:29. | :22:32. | |
For the northern half of thd region, not a great deal left. Tempdrature | :22:33. | :22:40. | |
wise we are not as chilly as last night because we have a gre`t deal | :22:41. | :22:45. | |
of closed around. We will h`ve mixed fortunes tomorrow, it could be a dry | :22:46. | :22:50. | |
start for many of us but thdre will be some thundery downpours `round. | :22:51. | :22:55. | |
The Met office have decided to issue a warning for this, yellow warning | :22:56. | :23:01. | |
for rain. Some heavy rain around. Heavy downpours that could cause | :23:02. | :23:04. | |
surface spray and localised flooding in places. Tomorrow morning there | :23:05. | :23:09. | |
may even be something bright. You can see all of this rain, it is | :23:10. | :23:13. | |
really showers that are merging together. Bringing us these | :23:14. | :23:18. | |
torrential downpours, there could be some thunderstorms as well. Not good | :23:19. | :23:21. | |
conditions at all through the majority of the day. Quite ` range | :23:22. | :23:28. | |
of temperatures, 16 to 18 Cdlsius. It heads northwards slowly. Because | :23:29. | :23:33. | |
it will be slow`moving we whll get a lot of rain and a short space of | :23:34. | :23:38. | |
time. The cat the southern part of the map. `` look at. There could be | :23:39. | :23:45. | |
some sunshine at the end of the day. Then that low`pressure moves away. | :23:46. | :23:50. | |
High`pressure starting to move them, the northerly wind will freshen | :23:51. | :23:57. | |
things up a bit. I dry start to Saturday but some pretty he`vy | :23:58. | :24:01. | |
downpours for the afternoon, looking predominantly drive for Sunday. | :24:02. | :24:05. | |
Essentially unsettled start to next week. `` a settled start. | :24:06. | :24:11. | |
That is all from us. Good evening. | :24:12. | :24:13. |
