This man says he was kept away from his Dad, after complaining

And at the launch of his latest blockbuster - we talk

about Planet Earth with Sir David Attenborough.

I would like people to look at the programme, and think, wow, hsn't

that extraordinary. After a cold and frosty night, tomorrow will remain

dry. Details at the end of the programme.

A man from Somerset claims he was banned

from visiting his elderly f`ther, because he complained

Paul Doolan says he felt his 93-year-old father wasn't

A BBC investigation has found that hundreds of people have

We are all part of an ageing population.

More than 230,000 people now live in full time residential care.

But what happens when their new home decides their family

It's increasingly common and the effects can be devastating.

Paul Doohan's dad moved into the care home in

Paul visited him every week for three years before

He says it was because he h`d complained about poor

The ban meant Paul and dad Terry could only meet at this club watched

by a chaperone employed by the local authority.

I always had a good relationship with Dad and it was

The email banning Paul accused him of unacceptable behaviour

I refute that completely, my dad did his best

for me and I was out to do my best for my father.

I think clarity and being clear with people and you need to give people

the respect of saying things to their face if there was a problem.

to keep accurate records, only then to keep accurate records, only then

will the full scale of the problem be really become clear.

A transgender woman is callhng for more training to be

given to prison officers, to improve safety in jail.

Tara Hudson from Bath was born a man.

She admits she deserved to go to prison last year, but saxs

she was treated like an anilal because of her situation.

I have been behind these bars, I know how transgender people

Eastwood Park hit the headlhnes when prisoner Tara was moved

from Bristol following a nationwide campaign.

Many have been outraged Tar` who was born a man but lived

as a woman to ten years had been taken to a men's jail

I felt I had no rights, I felt like an animal in a zoo.

Around 160,000 people signed a petition to get Tara moved

After seven days, the MOJ agreed and she was moved.

When she arrived, she says staff did not know what to do with her.

Because of my gender identity, they felt they needed

The Ministry of Justice inshsts transgender prisoners are m`naged

safely and in accordance with the laws.

Tara says she was kept in hdr cell while other prisoners

were allowed out to do colldge courses and go to the gym.

I think yeah, if you have done something bad, you

But to be treated differently to other prisoners...

What is your message to the government, what changes

Better training of staff and more understanding.

Tara did not have a gender recognition certificate,

the paper to say she is leg`lly now a woman, if she had

that the guidelines say she would have been sent

But the certificate is hard to come by.

And just like Tara, many tr`nsgender people simply do not have it.

The government says discrethon can be shown and a national revhew

is taking place looking at improvements that can be made.

The governor welcomes cleardr rules but says a one size fits

And I think a basic set of guidelines is useful

but we should assess people as individuals.

Maria Millar sits on the Eqtalities Committee, which is looking

We have two, as a society, understand better that therd are

individuals who are transgender and some who do not associate whth

either gender. We need to m`ke sure public services can deal with that

and there have been too manx tragic cases where that has not bedn

handled well enough, the government has undertaken publicly to review

those instructions and more importantly make sure that prison

officers are trained in these issues and it is good training which has

been lacking. It is guidancd from government, are you confident

government is doing what it should be an knows what it is doing well,

the answer is they have admhtted they needed to review both the

guidance and also the trainhng on offer. They undertook to do that in

December 20 15. There has bden some progress but there still nedds to be

pressure on government to gdt this right and my select committde will

be holding further debates to discuss more generally the

government support for transgender people because there is a w`y to go.

It is not simple because people are often at different stages of the

transition process. So, there is not one size fits all. No, but that is

the same for any individual prisoner. Each will have a

particular circumstance when they come to prison, prison officers the

system needs to be able to deal with that but it is particularly

important they deal with it when involving a transgender person. The

rates of run to health problems but also tragic suicides that h`ve

handled means the government needs handled means the government needs

to get this right and the prison service needs to get right. Thank

you for coming on. There has been a special prdmiere

in Bristol this evening It was made here in Bristol

and promises to show us lifd in some of the most inaccessible pl`ces

in the world. The narrator of the series,

Sir David Attenborough, told Seb Choudhury it brings us

closer than ever to the anilals There was almost nothing

you can't do now. You can speed things up and slow

them down, film from the air and the bottom of the sea

and magnifying things... What somebody will say doing this

interview in ten years' "Oh, well, back in 2016,

they did the last thing." As far as Bristol goes,

still the bastion of natural history, you must bd

so proud of the city It is the BBC and a series of very

remarkable people in Bristol who, over the years, the last 50 years,

established natural history here. What do you want people to take

away from Planet Earth? I make programmes because it is

what I would like to watch. If I settle down of an evenhng,

what would I want to see? I would want to see

things like that. OK, he made them, he is prejudice,

maybe so but that is what I would like people to say

to look at the programme and think, wow, isn't that extraordinary,

isn't it beautiful and dram`tic and exciting and it is

true and real. What a privilege to have hil on the

programme. And that's the news from us tonight

- we're back tomorrow but for now I will say goodnight and le`ve

you with Ian who is on the roof Hello, David. Another chillx night,

we will see a few of these over a few days to come. A cold st`rt

tomorrow, frost in places, patches of fog, a good deal of dry weather,

cloud increasing and eventu`lly into the evening it will bring r`in in an

erratic fashion. We all ready have temperatures dropping down to

freezing and -1 in places. Those are the values we can expect tonight and

if anything, there will be `reas down to freezing or below. Some

frost around, patches of fog possible and through the morning,

hazy sunshine and the cloud increases as the day wears on.

Outbreaks of rain in fragmentary fashion, temperatures up

up to around 12. Mick Miller has the national picture.

The weather may have turned colder but for many of us today there was

abundant sunshine. This is from the end of the day from Oxfordshire

Cold and clear by day and clear and even colder overnight. That is the

recipe at this time of year. Widespread ground frost setting in.

Parts of East Anglia already below freezing. In western Scotland,

temperatures may stabilise. It could even go up a feud degrees with

thickening cloud, outbreaks of rain and a freshening breeze. By the end

of the night, the coldest weather will be
