all from the Welcome to South East Today, I'm | :00:00. | :00:08. | |
Natalie Graham. And I'm Rob Smith. Tonight's top | :00:09. | :00:11. | |
stories. Two Sussex police officers could face misconduct charges as | :00:12. | :00:14. | |
part of the Jimmy Savile investigation. We're live at Sussex | :00:15. | :00:17. | |
Police headquarters with the details. The mother of a toddler | :00:18. | :00:22. | |
with a serious heart condition says losing ?200 a month in disability | :00:23. | :00:25. | |
living allowance will leave her having to choose between heating | :00:26. | :00:27. | |
and eating. Also tonight: Fury from the family | :00:28. | :00:33. | |
of a boy killed crossing the road at school that a footbridge still | :00:34. | :00:36. | |
hasn't been opened to prevent a repeat of the tragedy. | :00:37. | :00:40. | |
Responding to the terror of the first air raids ` the World War One | :00:41. | :00:44. | |

And, sleeping with the fishes ` the underwater sculptures created by a | :00:50. | :00:50. | |
Kent artist. Good evening. Two Sussex Police | :00:51. | :01:07. | |
officers could face a misconduct investigation over the way they | :01:08. | :01:09. | |
handled allegations of indecent assault against Jimmy Savile. | :01:10. | :01:14. | |
The Independent Police Complaints Commission has asked the force for | :01:15. | :01:18. | |
more information about the way detectives responded to a woman who | :01:19. | :01:21. | |
came forward in 2008 saying she was attacked by the disgraced former TV | :01:22. | :01:24. | |
presenter in the 1970s. Rebecca Williams reports. In 2008, a woman | :01:25. | :01:34. | |
told Sussex A Kent mother whose one`year`old | :01:35. | :05:25. | |
daughter has a serious heart condition says her child's health | :05:26. | :05:28. | |
is being put at risk because her benefits have been cut. Catherine | :05:29. | :05:31. | |
Halliday from Sheerness has lost the ?200 a month allowance she was | :05:32. | :05:35. | |
receiving for her daughter Tiffany. She now says she's having to choose | :05:36. | :05:39. | |
between heating her home or eating, but the government says it's | :05:40. | :05:42. | |
determined to control the rising cost of disability allowances. | :05:43. | :05:50. | |
Simon Jones reports. Tiffany has three holes in the | :05:51. | :05:53. | |
heart and faces surgery. Her mother says her condition need constant | :05:54. | :05:57. | |
monitoring. She spends a huge amount keeping the House won | :05:58. | :06:02. | |
because her daughter has a weak immune system. They are now going | :06:03. | :06:06. | |
to lose ?200 a month because it has been judged Tiffany does not need | :06:07. | :06:10. | |
more than one hour's care per day. She did not choose to be ill. She | :06:11. | :06:17. | |
did not choose to have what is wrong with her wrong with her. If I | :06:18. | :06:21. | |
could tear out my own heart and give it to her so she would have a | :06:22. | :06:26. | |
working heart I would do that in a second. Disability living allowance | :06:27. | :06:32. | |
is designed for children who need more looking after than similar | :06:33. | :06:38. | |
children of the same age. It varies from back ?21 to ?134 per week but | :06:39. | :06:44. | |
the government was looking to save ?420 million in England in changes | :06:45. | :06:49. | |
to benefits. Disability living allowance is there to cover the | :06:50. | :06:54. | |
extra burden of dealing with disability. If the government want | :06:55. | :06:57. | |
to do something about people struggling with their heating bills | :06:58. | :07:01. | |
they could scrap many policies that make life more expensive. The | :07:02. | :07:06. | |
Department of work and pensions told us the disability and living | :07:07. | :07:10. | |
allowance isn't generally paid on the condition someone has but on | :07:11. | :07:14. | |
their care needs and if people aren't happy with decisions reached | :07:15. | :07:19. | |
they can appeal. Katherine's MP is now raising the case with the | :07:20. | :07:28. | |
Minister. The appeal against her `` against the decision will take a | :07:29. | :07:33. | |
year. For a year, she and others in the same position will not get any | :07:34. | :07:38. | |
help or benefits. Some say that you have to make difficult choices when | :07:39. | :07:43. | |
it comes to the benefit system. The benefits are for her, not me. The | :07:44. | :07:49. | |
Department of Work and Pensions will now re`examine the case. | :07:50. | :07:59. | |
`` be case will be re`examined. A 55`year`old man has been arrested | :08:00. | :08:05. | |
on suspicion of murder after a woman was found dead in Thanet this | :08:06. | :08:09. | |
afternoon. Kent Police were called to Broadstairs just | :08:10. | :08:10. | |
stairs just after I to and the woman was pronounced dead | :08:11. | :08:12. | |
A huge fire on a perfume factory in New Haven may have been started | :08:13. | :10:42. | |
deliberately according to police. The blaze at Quintessence | :10:43. | :10:46. | |
Fragrances started just after 1 o'clock this morning. | :10:47. | :10:49. | |
Investigation teams have begun the process of trying to workout Harris | :10:50. | :10:52. | |
started. This is what it looks like when a | :10:53. | :10:58. | |
perfume factory goes up in flames. Around 30 people are employed here. | :10:59. | :11:03. | |
Those who turned up for work today reacted with disbelief. Coming in | :11:04. | :11:08. | |
on the bus, I didn't know anything about it and looked on Facebook and | :11:09. | :11:14. | |
saw a picture of the place. Just shocked and devastated. I'm just | :11:15. | :11:21. | |
pleased nobody was in their and it has only damaged property. It | :11:22. | :11:25. | |
everyone is pretty upset. A lot of people have worked here a long time. | :11:26. | :11:31. | |
Some have been with the company for 15 years or more. All the hard work | :11:32. | :11:37. | |
people have put a `` put into the company and it has just gone up and | :11:38. | :11:42. | |
we don't know why. The building contains significant quantities of | :11:43. | :11:47. | |
flammable substances. At its height, 60 firefighters were tackling the | :11:48. | :11:57. | |
inferno. A large proportion of the stock contains capable and was `` | :11:58. | :12:03. | |
chemicals and was probably responsible for the fireball. They | :12:04. | :12:07. | |
have a huge job on their hands are sifting through the debris. You can | :12:08. | :12:11. | |
see how they heat of the fire was so intense it twisted the structure | :12:12. | :12:16. | |
of the building. One of the workers told me the company was a fortnight | :12:17. | :12:21. | |
away from moving to new premises, but is there anything left to move? | :12:22. | :12:28. | |
An investigation is under way. It will look to see whether it was | :12:29. | :12:34. | |
started deliberately. A string of new super pylons are to | :12:35. | :12:39. | |
be built in East Kent to connect the UK to the network fire at | :12:40. | :12:44. | |
Belgium. They will be taller than the existing ones and carry higher | :12:45. | :12:47. | |
Voltage. Campaigners are concerned about the | :12:48. | :12:52. | |
effect on the environment. Our environment Correspondent reports. | :12:53. | :12:59. | |
Connecting us up to an energy supplied ` pions transporting | :13:00. | :13:01. | |
electricity across the country to where we need it. As our main power | :13:02. | :13:07. | |
sources change, the group needs to upgrade, like in east Kent where a | :13:08. | :13:13. | |
controversial link is planned. It will follow the existing line of | :13:14. | :13:18. | |
pylons and back down into Canterbury. It will run the | :13:19. | :13:23. | |
northern and western edges of this area. The rate to Canterbury sub` | :13:24. | :13:28. | |
station was chosen over a more southerly option. The idea is to | :13:29. | :13:33. | |
build the new pylons following the line of the old but to the side | :13:34. | :13:38. | |
before the old ones are dismantled. There will be few of them though ` | :13:39. | :13:43. | |
around two`thirds ` and there will beat `` they will be taller. They | :13:44. | :13:48. | |
will carry three times more faults of electricity. The demolition of | :13:49. | :13:54. | |
rich brat power station was symbolic. Its closure was followed | :13:55. | :14:02. | |
by two others. The burning of Porte ``: Doyle in the South East is | :14:03. | :14:12. | |
making an exit. `` Carl and oil. The upgrade is needed for | :14:13. | :14:16. | |
additional sources from abroad. A link is planned with Belgium so we | :14:17. | :14:20. | |
can better trade a power with the Continent. Some are concerned that | :14:21. | :14:26. | |
environmental damage will ensue. Of course there will be disruption and | :14:27. | :14:30. | |
the impact of the pylons being built, but we believe it is `` | :14:31. | :14:35. | |
there is a great deal more that could be done to put this | :14:36. | :14:38. | |
underground. Yvette joins us now. Will this help | :14:39. | :14:50. | |
secured are future energy needs? It is very much part of a long`term | :14:51. | :14:56. | |
plan. Over the next 10 years, a quarter of our power stations will | :14:57. | :15:03. | |
close. We have already lost three and another will close soon. | :15:04. | :15:08. | |
Renewables are on the increase but the National Grid says it can be | :15:09. | :15:13. | |
intermittent. When the wind doesn't blow, we may need to import our | :15:14. | :15:17. | |
energy. We have links with the south`east and the Netherlands and | :15:18. | :15:22. | |
France. Belgium is next. Trading in power is on the increase. | :15:23. | :15:30. | |
To Sussex Police officers could face a misconduct operation ` my | :15:31. | :15:37. | |
investigation over the way they handled allegations of indecent | :15:38. | :15:42. | |
assault by Jimmy Savile. The IPCC is asking for more information | :15:43. | :15:47. | |
about the way detectives dealt with that case. | :15:48. | :15:54. | |
Also: Inaccessible art ` we meet the sculptor whose latest work is | :15:55. | :15:59. | |
500 metres below water. Things are looking wintry here. | :16:00. | :16:01. | |
Find out later. It's an unusual combination ` two | :16:02. | :16:19. | |
high flying businesswomen in Kent and homeless war veterans who have | :16:20. | :16:23. | |
hit rock bottom. But a new venture, Futures for Heroes, set up only a | :16:24. | :16:27. | |
few weeks ago, has already helped a dozen war veterans find somewhere | :16:28. | :16:30. | |
to live and start turning their lives around, providing a very | :16:31. | :16:32. | |
individual military service. Our news correspondent, Mark Norman, | :16:33. | :16:38. | |
has tonight's Special Report. A workshop on an industrial estate | :16:39. | :16:42. | |
in Margate but these men are former military personnel and many have | :16:43. | :16:47. | |
powerful stories to tell. He died while I was trying to save him. | :16:48. | :16:52. | |
Stephen served in Afghanistan and on his last tour lost three good | :16:53. | :16:58. | |
friends. Unfortunately, he was killed and I was lucky enough to | :16:59. | :17:02. | |
get away from that. It's still haunts me now and sometimes I feel | :17:03. | :17:09. | |
like it is my fault and I didn't do enough. I do suffer from post | :17:10. | :17:16. | |
traumatic stress disorder but, being here, I can think of ways to | :17:17. | :17:20. | |
overcome that. Like other soldiers here who have seen action, he | :17:21. | :17:25. | |
suffers from post`traumatic stress disorder. The anxiety and | :17:26. | :17:28. | |
depression can make the transition to civilian life difficult. He | :17:29. | :17:34. | |
found himself living in a car in a supermarket car`park, but with `` | :17:35. | :17:40. | |
within hours of being put in touch with the charity, he found himself | :17:41. | :17:46. | |
living here. For one night, if someone get stuck we can put them | :17:47. | :17:50. | |
on the couch until we can be house them. We said, we can probably give | :17:51. | :17:57. | |
you some housing which we did that weekend. Since then, it has | :17:58. | :18:02. | |
snowballed. Everything is fitting into place and they have so much to | :18:03. | :18:10. | |
offer for ex service personnel. The two business women who started this | :18:11. | :18:15. | |
project, opened it just a few weeks ago. It is actually a social | :18:16. | :18:22. | |
enterprise and not a charity. Both of us looked at each other and said, | :18:23. | :18:28. | |
all the things we have done for other disadvantaged groups, why | :18:29. | :18:34. | |
don't we apply the things we have learnt to this specific group that | :18:35. | :18:39. | |
actually really do need help at this point in time? The two | :18:40. | :18:44. | |
founders now hope to roll out this model across the country. | :18:45. | :18:55. | |
In 1917, while trench warfare raged on the Western Front, German | :18:56. | :19:00. | |
generals planned bombing raids on the Home Front, sending aircraft | :19:01. | :19:03. | |
over the South East of England to target civilians. | :19:04. | :19:07. | |
Today, a unique collection of maps has been published by a Sussex | :19:08. | :19:10. | |
author Peter Chasseaud shedding new light on how the Great War was | :19:11. | :19:14. | |
fought. Claudia Sermbezis has been to Lewes to meet him. | :19:15. | :19:22. | |
When the Germans started their strategic bombing campaign in 1917, | :19:23. | :19:27. | |
the idea was to reach much further in behind the Yemeni lines and put | :19:28. | :19:33. | |
civilians onto the front lines `` the enemy lines. This wrote shows ` | :19:34. | :19:43. | |
` these rich shows a flight path over our region. It caused | :19:44. | :19:47. | |
tremendous outcry in the prayers and that was why they'd launched | :19:48. | :19:55. | |
these rates. These rates brought the ball home. Set in airships had | :19:56. | :20:00. | |
been used at the beginning of the conflict and one of six reading | :20:01. | :20:07. | |
London crashed near Margate. Peter explored the archives at the | :20:08. | :20:08. | |
Imperial War Museum for He says the Great War was a war of | :20:09. | :20:16. | |
maps. The war changed usually from beginning to end and maps were a | :20:17. | :20:20. | |
great part of that allowing weapons to be used with increasing effect. | :20:21. | :20:27. | |
Pilots risked their lives taking photographs to be turned into maps. | :20:28. | :20:36. | |
Of course, this took no account of ground conditions. During one great | :20:37. | :20:43. | |
battle, the ground conditions were appalling ` churned up by artillery | :20:44. | :20:48. | |
fire and there had been heavy rain. The infantry found it heavy going | :20:49. | :20:56. | |
to go across country. It was very body and there were German machine | :20:57. | :21:00. | |
guns from the pillboxes playing across them and mowing them down. P | :21:01. | :21:06. | |
does book features 150 Matt's telling the story on land, in the | :21:07. | :21:09. | |
air and on the sea. He's a prolific sculptor, but it's | :21:10. | :21:16. | |
highly unlikely that you'll ever get to see his latest artworks on | :21:17. | :21:25. | |
display. Jason deCairnes Taylor has created | :21:26. | :21:27. | |
more than 500 underwater sculptures off the coast of Mexico. He's just | :21:28. | :21:31. | |
arrived home in Canterbury after completing the project, but back in | :21:32. | :21:34. | |
South America his work's already barely recognisable, having been | :21:35. | :21:37. | |
taken over by coral, sea urchins and other marine life. Fiona Irving | :21:38. | :21:38. | |
reports. Figures of concrete that come to | :21:39. | :21:55. | |
life under water. This is Jason deCairnes Taylor's latest | :21:56. | :22:02. | |
exhibition. 510 sculptures all on Mexico's sea bed. You are viewing | :22:03. | :22:08. | |
something from a completely different angle. You are in a | :22:09. | :22:13. | |
three`dimensional world way you can float around it and you are | :22:14. | :22:18. | |
completely buoyant. Although they are static sculptures, they are | :22:19. | :22:22. | |
changing all the tide `` all the time. Every visit I go, each visit | :22:23. | :22:31. | |
is always new. It has taken four years to create all the sculptures. | :22:32. | :22:36. | |
The works were commissioned by the local government to try to keep | :22:37. | :22:40. | |
divers from damaging the coral reefs. The figures are also | :22:41. | :22:45. | |
themselves after the regeneration of sea life. When there is a strong | :22:46. | :22:51. | |
storm, it rips the coral off the reef so I took some of these pieces | :22:52. | :22:56. | |
that had been ripped off the reef and were dying and replanted them | :22:57. | :23:03. | |
on to these wings of this angel. From Aldi to lobster, the | :23:04. | :23:11. | |
sculptures are now home to thousands of creatures `` from Aldi. | :23:12. | :23:17. | |
I always feel really guilty because I go down and wake them up with my | :23:18. | :23:35. | |
dive like. `` dive lights. Art not just a mirror to nature but part of | :23:36. | :23:37. | |
it. Wow! We all want to go scuba`diving | :23:38. | :23:52. | |
in Mexico now. We can't, but we can go ice`skating in Bryson `` | :23:53. | :23:57. | |
Brighton. There's a Christmassy feel to the famous Brighton | :23:58. | :24:00. | |
Pavilion tonight with the unveiling of the city's winter ice rink. | :24:01. | :24:03. | |
Professional skaters are performing there tonight before it opens to | :24:04. | :24:06. | |
the public and Rachel Mackley's there for us. Are you feeling | :24:07. | :24:13. | |
festive, Rachel? Yes but I won't do any skating. We haven't seen a | :24:14. | :24:19. | |
flake of snow but people are already on the ice rink. Tonight is | :24:20. | :24:24. | |
the opening night. It will be open from Saturday for two months. What | :24:25. | :24:32. | |
makes it special? First, it is in front of that building which it is | :24:33. | :24:36. | |
an extraordinary backdrop. It is also about having an experience | :24:37. | :24:40. | |
with family and friends and it is what you would hope Christmas is | :24:41. | :24:47. | |
all about. We have tiny ones and older people to. It seems to be for | :24:48. | :24:54. | |
everyone. Several ice`skaters have been here and one of them here is | :24:55. | :25:00. | |
nattily. How did it feel? Absolutely Fabulous. I couldn't | :25:01. | :25:04. | |
have asked for a better setting. When you come back to Brighton | :25:05. | :25:08. | |
again question map yes we are performing in Robin Cousins Ice. | :25:09. | :25:18. | |
I was very impressed with all of that. If you are planning on coming | :25:19. | :25:24. | |
on Saturday, will you be having wintry weather? This evening it | :25:25. | :25:30. | |
will stay dry. One or two showers around as we hit through the night. | :25:31. | :25:37. | |
Earlier was quite a different story but the rain cleared eastwards. But | :25:38. | :25:45. | |
the first part of the afternoon it was a dry a story. Temperatures | :25:46. | :25:53. | |
feeling rather Carleton. Westerly breezes will ease off throughout | :25:54. | :25:58. | |
the day that `` feeling rather culled. More in the way of clearer | :25:59. | :26:06. | |
skies and that is the story tonight. Temperatures will be tumbling. | :26:07. | :26:11. | |
Along the coast, holding up slightly. Towards dawn, more cloud | :26:12. | :26:20. | |
around and sharp showers. Showers during the morning and by the | :26:21. | :26:24. | |
afternoon a band of heavy and persistent rain with the wind | :26:25. | :26:29. | |
picking up as well. Really heavy rain around a must `` rush`hour say | :26:30. | :26:36. | |
take a bit of extra time. The first part of the evening will be wet | :26:37. | :26:41. | |
also and around 9 o'clock the rain should have cleared. One or two | :26:42. | :26:45. | |
showers around which could be hefty but clearer skies also. | :26:46. | :26:49. | |
Temperatures dropping again but holding up on the coast. Showers to | :26:50. | :26:57. | |
start the weekend. A ridge of high pressure is around so Sunday looks | :26:58. | :27:06. | |
more `` dry and brighter. A very cold night as we go it over into | :27:07. | :27:13. | |
Sunday. Dry and bright for Sunday but colt. Rein back on Monday. | :27:14. | :27:14. | |
Enjoy your evening. Before we go... Before we go, the | :27:15. | :27:25. | |
BBC's Children in Need 2013 appeal takes place on Friday of next week | :27:26. | :27:29. | |
and we've got something rather special planned. | :27:30. | :27:38. | |
Joined us on Friday November 15th at the Bluebell Railway for this is | :27:39. | :27:45. | |
Children In Need when you could get the chance to write the Pudsey | :27:46. | :27:58. | |
Express. `` ride the Pudsey Express. If you'd like to join us, email us | :27:59. | :28:04. | |
