Brighton and are celebrating their Good evening. | :00:59. | :01:02. | |
A soldier has died after being shot during a training exercise at a | :01:02. | :01:07. | |
firing range in Kent. Dean Griffiths was serving with the | :01:07. | :01:10. | |
Royal Welsh. A major investigation by the | :01:10. | :01:13. | |
Ministry of Defence, Kent Police and the Health and Safety Executive | :01:13. | :01:15. | |
has been launched after the incident at the ranges in Lydd | :01:15. | :01:21. | |
yesterday afternoon. Our reporter, Peter Whittlesea, is there now. | :01:21. | :01:28. | |
What do we know about how he died? Well, it is unclear how the 21- | :01:28. | :01:35. | |
year-old fusilier from Shropshire died. It took the MoD nearly 24 | :01:35. | :01:40. | |
hours to confirm his death. Residents said they saw an air | :01:40. | :01:43. | |
ambulance overhead and ambulances entering the camp. They believe he | :01:43. | :01:47. | |
was pronounced dead at the scene. A civil police investigation is | :01:47. | :01:55. | |
underway into the death of Fusilier Dean Griffiths. He died in what is | :01:55. | :02:00. | |
thought to be a tragic accident. There are about 300,000 training | :02:00. | :02:08. | |
hours carried out every year at the Lydd and Hyde Firing Ranges. They | :02:08. | :02:12. | |
have a good safety record, but any accident is regrettable and there | :02:12. | :02:16. | |
should be a proper investigation in why this happened. | :02:16. | :02:23. | |
Lydd is one of the busiest MoD ranges used by all regiments. For | :02:23. | :02:26. | |
residents nearby, the camp is part of the community. | :02:26. | :02:30. | |
We are close to the range. We love the guys. We see them coming out | :02:30. | :02:35. | |
and we are proud of them. A lot of them are very young and to | :02:35. | :02:39. | |
hear something like that happened, it is awful. | :02:39. | :02:42. | |
We just saw the air ambulance and the ambulance going over there | :02:42. | :02:47. | |
yesterday afternoon. In 2006 a soldier from the | :02:47. | :02:53. | |
Grenadier Guards died at Lydd from a gunshot to the head. Military | :02:53. | :02:57. | |
experts say it is impossible to eliminate all risks in live firing | :02:57. | :03:01. | |
exercises. This particular incident took place | :03:01. | :03:06. | |
during a live field firing exercise. That means using live ammunition | :03:06. | :03:11. | |
where individuals are moving in fire and manoeuvre operations and | :03:11. | :03:16. | |
therefore, it does entail a higher degree of risk. These individuals | :03:16. | :03:20. | |
are training for operations, live combat operations, and therefore | :03:20. | :03:25. | |
there has to be a degree of realism which means a degree of danger, | :03:25. | :03:28. | |
unfortunately. Tonight police said they were | :03:28. | :03:31. | |
working with the Army and the Health and Safety Executive | :03:31. | :03:41. | |
:03:41. | :03:42. | ||
Well, in the last half an hour, his brother paid tribute to him, saying | :03:42. | :03:46. | |
Dean was fun, loving and caring and was is excited about becoming a | :03:46. | :03:50. | |
father. The MoD said they regret to confirm his death and their | :03:50. | :03:59. | |
thoughts go out to his family They supplied illegal drugs worth | :03:59. | :04:02. | |
tens of thousands of pounds from a travellers' site in West Malling. | :04:02. | :04:07. | |
Today a highly organised network of dealers have been convicted. During | :04:07. | :04:10. | |
the trial, the jury had to be given lessons in gypsy dialect called | :04:10. | :04:15. | |
Rokker which was used by two of the gang. Simon Jones reports. | :04:15. | :04:22. | |
Infiltrated by undercover officers. This travellers site was home to | :04:22. | :04:30. | |
Joseph King, the man said to control control it. In the woods | :04:30. | :04:34. | |
next door drugs and guns. There was a conversation between | :04:34. | :04:40. | |
two of the defendants that was using a dialect called Rokker. It | :04:40. | :04:43. | |
was felt the conversation was important to our prosecution case | :04:43. | :04:46. | |
and we had to get somebody in to interpret that for us. | :04:46. | :04:52. | |
REPORTER: The jury were given basic lessons in Gypsy language? That's | :04:52. | :04:55. | |
right, yes. How unusual is that? It is the | :04:55. | :05:05. | |
:05:05. | :05:16. | ||
The Romany language comes from India. It is every language in | :05:16. | :05:22. | |
between British and India. It is a language which is spoken by over 12 | :05:22. | :05:27. | |
million people in the world. All the Gypsies of the world speak some | :05:27. | :05:31. | |
form of Romany. One of the guns found was loaded. | :05:31. | :05:35. | |
Thousands of pounds in cash were discovered in the loft of a stable. | :05:35. | :05:39. | |
The travellers site where Joseph King lives is at bottom of the lane. | :05:39. | :05:44. | |
When we arrived, we were told by the people to leave and threatened | :05:44. | :05:48. | |
if we didn't. Joseph King will be sentenced | :05:48. | :05:55. | |
tomorrow along with his brother Samuel and two others for drugs | :05:55. | :06:05. | |

Health campaigners in Sussex are reacting angrily to news that a | :06:21. | :06:26. | |
silt for heart attack patients have to be downgraded. | :06:26. | :06:31. | |
NHS Sussex says 24-hour cardiology services could be provide in | :06:31. | :06:41. | |

They moved to Eastbourne to be nearer to the district General | :06:41. | :06:46. | |
Hospital. John is awaiting open- heart surgery so heavily relies on | :06:46. | :06:50. | |
the 24-hour emergency service provided for heart attack patients. | :06:50. | :06:57. | |
It is convenience, you know, it saves that aggravation of travel. | :06:57. | :07:02. | |
But it is that point that there is so many heart problems that | :07:02. | :07:07. | |
Eastbourne is ideal. The idea Eastbourne DGH is | :07:07. | :07:11. | |
downgrading the unit to a day only service, patients like John could | :07:11. | :07:18. | |
be facing a 45 minute European European journey to Hastings and | :07:18. | :07:26. | |
Brighton Minutes saves lives. | :07:26. | :07:34. | |
The nearest service will be in Brighton. Both options leave | :07:34. | :07:42. | |
patients with a 20 mile journey. You can't choose when you have a | :07:42. | :07:46. | |
heart attack. If you have a heart attack in the night, yes, the roads | :07:46. | :07:51. | |
may not be so busy, but you want to have treatment as soon as possible. | :07:51. | :07:55. | |
I mean, all medical evidence says the the sooner, you get treatment, | :07:55. | :07:58. | |
the better the recovery. It is not the first time services | :07:58. | :08:05. | |
have been scrutinised. In 2006 East Sussex NHS Trust began a review of | :08:05. | :08:09. | |
maternity services with the option to close the Eastbourne unit. Two | :08:09. | :08:13. | |
years on, the idea was scrapped, but this year, they are under the | :08:13. | :08:17. | |
spotlight again because they can't find enough doctors to staff both | :08:17. | :08:20. | |
units. Some experts feel the changes in the cardiology unit is | :08:20. | :08:24. | |
not a bad thing. When I grew up a heart attack was | :08:25. | :08:29. | |
fatal and it was a death sentence. Now many more people survive | :08:29. | :08:34. | |
because of acute surgery and that can only be done in a number of | :08:34. | :08:37. | |
specialist centres and if everybody tries to do it, they don't doo it | :08:37. | :08:41. | |
very well. -- do it very well. | :08:41. | :08:44. | |
The NHS Trust insist they are following best practise guidelines | :08:44. | :08:51. | |
and they say they are working with cardiology services and the service | :08:51. | :08:56. | |
to make sure every patient gets the best treatment and the best | :08:56. | :09:06. | |

Louise, we heard the campaigners say they are going to fight | :09:07. | :09:10. | |
services. Stephen Lloyd the local MP said that he will fight to | :09:10. | :09:17. | |
retain these services in Eastbourne. He has written to the Director of | :09:17. | :09:21. | |
NHS Sussex today asking why he he wasn't informed. Three years ago, | :09:21. | :09:28. | |
there was a battle over maternity services and in the end, the then | :09:28. | :09:36. | |
Health Secretary Alan Mill buren did -- Alan mill buren did overturn | :09:36. | :09:40. | |
the decision. Stephen Lloyd says he will fight the proposals hard. This | :09:40. | :09:46. | |
comes against the backdrop of a report out today from a leading | :09:46. | :09:52. | |
health adviser which says the days of the district hospital have to be | :09:52. | :09:58. | |
numbered and calling for larger specialised hospitals. | :09:58. | :10:02. | |

being cleaned up. The former wife of the serial | :11:18. | :11:21. | |
killer, Peter Tobin described him as evil and describes that she is | :11:21. | :11:28. | |
sickened that he was ever in her life. In a new book she reveals | :11:28. | :11:32. | |
their relationship became one of abuse and control, but nothing | :11:32. | :11:35. | |
prepared her for the revelation that her former husband had raped | :11:35. | :11:44. | |
Here, he looks on at his newborn son, Daniel. In this picture, Kathy | :11:44. | :11:48. | |
and Peter Tobin on their wedding day. Key moments of their life, | :11:48. | :11:52. | |
meant to bring about the happiest of memories. They met when Kathy | :11:52. | :11:55. | |
was just 16. Within three or four weeks I moved | :11:55. | :11:59. | |
in with him. I felt it was the right thing. I felt convinced that | :11:59. | :12:04. | |
he was a safe and comfortable person to be with. He had tales of | :12:04. | :12:11. | |
fighting for this country. He had shrapnel injuries to his wrist and | :12:11. | :12:16. | |
he worked on the oil rigs and these were wonderfully exotic tales from | :12:16. | :12:20. | |
Brighton. It was mesmerising. Quickly the relationship turned | :12:20. | :12:25. | |
abusive. Kathy described herself as battered and bruised and announced | :12:25. | :12:30. | |
she wanted a divorce. We were upstairs in the house when I said | :12:30. | :12:35. | |
this. He picked my son up and held him above the staircase and | :12:35. | :12:39. | |
threaten to throw him down the stairs and he said, "If you try and | :12:39. | :12:44. | |
leave, I'll kill you and I'll kill your son as well.". In the time | :12:44. | :12:47. | |
that followed, Tobin started bringing women home and raping them. | :12:47. | :12:57. | |
Just two years after she married him, Vicky Hamilton and Dinah | :12:57. | :13:02. | |
McNicol went missing. He was given two life sentences for their | :13:02. | :13:06. | |
murders. Last summer, police began searching | :13:06. | :13:10. | |
properties in Brighton for other potential victims. This is where | :13:10. | :13:14. | |
Tobin lived in the late 80s, but nothing was found. | :13:14. | :13:17. | |
REPORTER: You were married to a murderer. That must be haunting for | :13:17. | :13:24. | |
you? It's disgusting. Its sick. I feel awful that the man ever | :13:24. | :13:32. | |
touched my body. It really sickens me. I know it is true what he has | :13:32. | :13:35. | |
done because he is in prison for it. I have gone through the court cases, | :13:35. | :13:40. | |
I find it now even indescribable to think I shared any part of my life | :13:40. | :13:44. | |
with him. During their years together, Tobin | :13:44. | :13:49. | |
threatened to stab Kathy and she says he hent her like a prisoner in | :13:49. | :13:52. | |
her own home and the escape from the relationship only marked the | :13:52. | :13:56. | |

from Kent who was killed by her husband has completed a 150 mile | :14:24. | :14:27. | |
walk to highlight the plight of families of murder victims. Malcolm | :14:27. | :14:30. | |
Webster was jailed in July for killing Claire Morris in | :14:30. | :14:32. | |
Aberdeenshire in 1994. Her brother Peter, started walking from her | :14:32. | :14:35. | |
graveside in Scotland two weeks ago and today he met the Scottish | :14:35. | :14:38. | |
Justice Minister. Rebecca Barry reports. The final steps of a very | :14:38. | :14:40. | |
long journey. Peter Morris walked 150 miles to the Scottish | :14:40. | :14:42. | |
Parliament from his sister's grave. It is an unmarked grave now, the | :14:42. | :14:44. | |
family of Claire Morris campaigned to have the headstone dedicated to | :14:45. | :14:48. | |
a dear wife, removed. It had been place thrd place there by the | :14:48. | :14:53. | |
husband who killed her. During the course of the last two- | :14:53. | :14:57. | |
and-a-half weeks, we have been successful in raising awareness of | :14:57. | :15:00. | |
what victims of crime have to go through. | :15:00. | :15:06. | |
On her wedding day, little did Claire know that the man she was | :15:06. | :15:14. | |
marrying planning to murder her. In 1999 he tried to kill his second | :15:14. | :15:18. | |
wife in a similar accident. Detectives re-investigated Claire's | :15:18. | :15:22. | |
death and in May Webster was convicted of her murder, the motive | :15:22. | :15:25. | |
had been money. The ordeal of Claire's murder | :15:25. | :15:28. | |
spurred her family to campaign for the rights of victims and their | :15:28. | :15:32. | |
families, but this latest challenge has not been easy. Peter injured | :15:32. | :15:37. | |
his foot and was was hospitalised for four days. | :15:37. | :15:42. | |
One man can only do so much and I will never regret what I have done | :15:42. | :15:46. | |
because I have made an attempt, regardless of whatever comes of | :15:46. | :15:49. | |
these discussions, I will feel that I made an attempt to make things | :15:49. | :15:53. | |
better for people who are victims of crime and that is what it is | :15:53. | :15:56. | |
about. Today, they handed in a petition to | :15:56. | :15:58. | |
the Scottish Parliament with over 6,000 signatures. | :15:58. | :16:04. | |
It is a cause that deserves to be supported and I have been happy to | :16:04. | :16:08. | |
support Peter through his efforts to walk from Aberdeenshire to | :16:08. | :16:10. | |
Edinburgh. Money raised from the walk will | :16:10. | :16:13. | |
help other families through their journeys as they mourn their loved | :16:13. | :16:23. | |
ones. A soldier has died after being shot | :16:23. | :16:27. | |

It's very difficult to grow apricots here, they're usually | :17:03. | :17:06. | |
imported from Mediterranean countries. But a trial at a farm in | :17:06. | :17:09. | |
Upchurch is bearing fruit - in the form of Kentish apricots. The fruit | :17:09. | :17:13. | |
originated in Asia. It's a member of the plum family and in mainland | :17:13. | :17:16. | |
Europe they usually ripen in July and August, but this crop from the | :17:16. | :17:19. | |
Garden of England has been cultivated to ripen later. Yvette | :17:19. | :17:28. | |
Austin has the latest in our food Ripened by the sun, it is a fruit | :17:28. | :17:33. | |
that enjoys warmth, but apricots, are no longer confined to sunnier | :17:33. | :17:38. | |
climes. These are on a farm in north Kent and the crop is as good | :17:38. | :17:41. | |
as could be expected when back in the spring it was touch and go. | :17:41. | :17:44. | |
It is a very risky crop. Here we are at the beginning of April and | :17:44. | :17:48. | |
we have three or four weeks of the frost season to go, but you can see | :17:48. | :17:55. | |
the little apricots on the trees. Hopefully they will survive until | :17:55. | :17:57. | |
October when we come to pick the last ones. | :17:57. | :18:02. | |
Two weeks early as as every this year, picking is well and truly | :18:02. | :18:05. | |
underway. Seven varieties are being trialled, the aim not to compete | :18:05. | :18:14. | |
with France and Spain, but to extend the season, ours ripen later. | :18:14. | :18:19. | |
It has been a fantastic summer. We are producing something that isn't | :18:19. | :18:27. | |
grown in the country already and reducing food miles. These are the | :18:27. | :18:32. | |
apricots that we are picking now and they will nb the shops shortly. | :18:32. | :18:40. | |
Another fruit which may grow here is the key the kiwi, vines are | :18:40. | :18:46. | |
becoming established in a trial plot near Canterbury. The first | :18:46. | :18:51. | |
fruit expected in a few years. Another example of something | :18:51. | :18:56. | |
unusual growing here snnchts it is a combination of things. Import | :18:56. | :19:03. | |
replacement. Ten years ago, they said we couldn't grow Braeburn. | :19:04. | :19:10. | |
Kiwis are grown in Italy and Greece and Asia. We thought they can grow | :19:10. | :19:13. | |
apples there, so we must be able to grow kiwis. | :19:14. | :19:18. | |
If you think about climate change and the likely impacts of that in | :19:18. | :19:22. | |
Southern Europe and the countries from which we source our food, they | :19:22. | :19:27. | |
are likely to suffer from a lot worse droughts than we get in the | :19:27. | :19:31. | |
south-east so they won't be able to produce and supply the UK with the | :19:31. | :19:35. | |
food that they currently do. These unusual fruits are not just | :19:35. | :19:39. | |
being grown for the fun of the challenge. It is possible, concern | :19:39. | :19:43. | |
over the security of our food supply will prompt an increasingly | :19:43. | :19:53. | |

and he was delighted by the response. | :20:42. | :20:48. | |
It is brilliant. There was great banner amongst the boys and the | :20:48. | :20:54. | |
teams taking part. Some people are raising money for their chosen | :20:54. | :20:57. | |
charities and at the same time challenging themselves as well. | :20:57. | :21:01. | |
Some of the competitors might have been passed their sporting best and | :21:01. | :21:06. | |
the aim is to raise money for charity, but for the likes of Rory | :21:06. | :21:10. | |
Underwood, the old competitive fire burns strong. | :21:10. | :21:14. | |
Once you get out there, you try your best. When you are fighting | :21:14. | :21:21. | |
the track, it is hilly around here. I knew it was going to be hilly and | :21:21. | :21:28. | |
I did tell Victor, why didn't you have it at Silverstone, it is flat! | :21:29. | :21:35. | |
Among the most impressive was former international skier Graham | :21:35. | :21:39. | |
Bell. It is similar to ski racing. It is | :21:39. | :21:44. | |
picking lines and carrying your speed down a hill. | :21:44. | :21:51. | |
Exhilarating? The top speed I recorded on a bike is around 100 | :21:51. | :21:59. | |
kilometres an hour which is 60mph. That's frightening. I know. | :21:59. | :22:09. | |

Some of the par Paralympic cyclists Kent's cricketers look likely to | :22:11. | :22:13. | |
lose the first ever day-night county championship match to be | :22:13. | :22:16. | |
played in this country. The match attracted plenty of interest as it | :22:16. | :22:19. | |
featured a pink cricket ball which is supposed to be easier to see | :22:19. | :22:23. | |
under floodlights - but a number of the Kent players said they've found | :22:23. | :22:33. | |

A couple from Sussex who met at a Brighton and Hove Albion game, they | :22:35. | :22:43. | |
had their first date two years later watching the Seagulls. Brenda | :22:43. | :22:47. | |
and Les Shepherd have been celebrating their anniversary with | :22:47. | :22:57. | |
a visit to the stadium. It is not the most romantic setting, | :22:57. | :23:03. | |
is it? That's right. Today it is a retail park. This was the site of | :23:03. | :23:09. | |
the old Goldstone ground where the couple met. After that Les used to | :23:10. | :23:15. | |
save a seat for Brenda every week. The last match here, was the last | :23:15. | :23:24. | |
game they saw. They were thrilled to get the chance to visit the home. | :23:24. | :23:28. | |
A couple of supporters who met at the club's former home. For years | :23:28. | :23:34. | |
they stood together on the terraces until the grown was sold off. Even | :23:34. | :23:43. | |
their first date was at a match. I had to ask her mum and dad and | :23:43. | :23:48. | |
they gave their approval that I could take her and this is what we | :23:48. | :23:57. | |
did. The Cup final was a family affair. | :23:57. | :24:03. | |
Brenda travelled to Wembley. Their daughter knew the perfect place to | :24:03. | :24:07. | |
celebrate their anniversary. They will be so excited, and seeing | :24:07. | :24:13. | |
their little faces yesterday was like, "Are we really going to the | :24:13. | :24:18. | |
new stadium?". This is a dream come true. Stepping into the stands of | :24:18. | :24:22. | |
the Albion's new home for the first time, a golden moment for a golden | :24:22. | :24:25. | |
anniversary. It is very modern, but it is nice. | :24:25. | :24:28. | |
It is very nice. It is really, really nice. I like | :24:29. | :24:38. | |

A life long Seagulls fan, Les thought the perfect way to Woo his | :24:39. | :24:43. | |
wife was through football. How different would a first date be | :24:43. | :24:48. | |
here? The Goldstone was good, but this is better. | :24:48. | :24:56. | |
We use used to have to stand. The rain used to come in under the roof. | :24:56. | :25:05. | |
Here, it is a beautiful place. He may have whisked her away to | :25:05. | :25:10. | |
Brighton v Rotherham on their first day, but romance blossomed, the | :25:10. | :25:17. | |
score a nil-nil draw, but for them, the perfect match. When the couple | :25:17. | :25:22. | |
were married in 1961, it was a beautiful day and 50 years on the | :25:22. | :25:29. | |
sun shown on them today. Brenda described their first date | :25:30. | :25:39. | |
uneventful Les says he wants to see Uneventful dates can lead to | :25:39. | :25:46. | |
marvellous marriages! They have had lots of golden | :25:46. | :25:49. | |
They have had lots of golden sunshine. Things aren't looking so | :25:49. | :25:52. | |
promising. Of course, the first of September is the beginning of | :25:52. | :25:58. | |
autumn, but today has felt somewhat more like summer than most of | :25:58. | :26:01. | |
August did really. Some really pleasant weather out there, but | :26:01. | :26:05. | |
things as I say, are turning a bit. Now tonight, it is going to start | :26:05. | :26:09. | |
off dry, but by the early hours of tomorrow, a little bit wetter. A | :26:09. | :26:13. | |
picture of what's been going on today and as you can see in the | :26:13. | :26:17. | |
south-east corner it has been clear skies all the way. Now, we are | :26:17. | :26:20. | |
seeing a build-up of cloud as we move through the night so the next | :26:20. | :26:27. | |
couple of hours cloud-free, but once the cloud has built up, we | :26:27. | :26:29. | |
will see rain throughout the early hours of tomorrow. It will be | :26:29. | :26:34. | |
chilly as well. The temperatures down to 12 Celsius in places. But | :26:34. | :26:38. | |
throughout tomorrow, well any wet weather there is around will clear | :26:38. | :26:42. | |
away and there should be quite a few sunny spells. Not as bright as | :26:42. | :26:46. | |
today because there is a lot of cloud cover around. But still a few | :26:46. | :26:50. | |
breaks in that and those temperatures still holding up not | :26:50. | :26:54. | |
badly for the time of year, we are seeing them get up to 20 Celsius at | :26:54. | :26:57. | |
their highest, but the weekend isn't far away so I'm sure he would | :26:58. | :27:01. | |
like to know what it has in storement by first thing Saturday | :27:01. | :27:05. | |
morning, the odd shower around, but nothing too substantial, generally | :27:05. | :27:09. | |
a bit of cloud cover. Those temperatures down to about 11 | :27:09. | :27:13. | |
Celsius first thing and as you can see the wet weather isn't far away. | :27:13. | :27:17. | |
It is hard to predict at this stage where and when it will fall, but | :27:17. | :27:21. | |
the chances are there there will be a bit of wet weather mixed in with | :27:21. | :27:26. |
