Hello, I'm Sally Taylor. Welcome to South Today. In tonight's programme.

:00:03.:00:10.

The victims of crime asking for better protection from the police.

:00:10.:00:15.

We need police on the streets, a visible presence that stops them.

:00:15.:00:19.

Going, going, gone - a century of tradition comes to an end as a

:00:19.:00:22.

dairy herd is sold. A diving wreck, a casino, or on its

:00:22.:00:26.

way to China - what will become of one of the most famous names in

:00:26.:00:29.

naval history? And the best of British - the

:00:29.:00:35.

rowers who have created a record crossing the Indian Ocean.

:00:35.:00:40.

We are looking forward to a good night's sleep. One not sure be back

:00:40.:00:50.
:00:50.:00:52.

A soft touch for criminals - that's the claim of Waverley Borough

:00:52.:00:55.

Council, which feels Surrey police is sending the wrong signal in the

:00:55.:01:00.

fight against crime. The council leader says Haslemere has become a

:01:00.:01:04.

particular target for thieves in recent weeks. The victims of crime

:01:04.:01:08.

say the police response times are unacceptable. But Surrey Police

:01:08.:01:12.

says it has increased the number of officers in the borough and the

:01:12.:01:14.

number of serious crimes is dropping. Caroline Richardson

:01:14.:01:19.

reports. On 11th June this Haslemere

:01:19.:01:24.

jewellers was raided. Thieves stole thousands of pounds worth of silver.

:01:24.:01:28.

In less than a fortnight they were burgled again. The shop is on a

:01:28.:01:31.

monitored alarm, which means the police are automatically alerted

:01:31.:01:39.

but it took them more than 20 minutes to respond. I feel bomb

:01:39.:01:46.

rubble, I feel bit frightened both here and at home. -- honourable. We

:01:46.:01:50.

just feel the we are not being supported by the police. Overall,

:01:50.:01:54.

crime in Surrey has gone up but the number of serious crimes,

:01:54.:01:56.

burglaries, violent or sexual assaults has gone down. That

:01:56.:01:59.

doesn't reassure the people of Waverley. Their council leader,

:01:59.:02:02.

himself a retired police officer, wants a review into the levels of

:02:02.:02:10.

policing in the borough. The budget is tight. However, we think because

:02:10.:02:13.

we are in rural district, we are not getting the deal perhaps that

:02:14.:02:18.

the rest of the county is. We cannot have Waverley being seen as

:02:18.:02:21.

a soft touch for criminals. Surrey Police deny that Waverley is being

:02:21.:02:31.

ignored. We have dedicated resources for Waverley. We have

:02:31.:02:35.

cars out Brighton date to patrol specifically. We have increased the

:02:35.:02:42.

number of staff who are assigned to issues in Waverley Burgh. They also

:02:42.:02:50.

defend their response time to the Haslemere jewellers. We had three

:02:50.:02:53.

double crew cars are signed within four minutes and within eight

:02:53.:02:59.

minutes I had eight cars aside. We did not attend the scene for

:02:59.:03:05.

somewhere over 25 minutes. Our priority at the time was to find

:03:05.:03:08.

defenders. Part of that is to look at escape routes and search for the

:03:08.:03:14.

vehicles involved. Angela is taking no chances now. She hopes the

:03:14.:03:17.

bullet proof glass, and a new steel reinforced door will protect her in

:03:17.:03:20.

future. The police in Dorset have launched

:03:20.:03:24.

a murder inquiry after a 42-year- old man was killed in Bournemouth

:03:24.:03:27.

early this morning. He was found with serious injuries in a street

:03:27.:03:30.

in Boscombe and died soon afterwards in hospital. Roger Finn

:03:30.:03:37.

reports. It has been a large-scale police operation in Boscombe since

:03:37.:03:42.

the early as of this morning and for much of the day. Forensics team

:03:42.:03:46.

to have been combing the area, surgeon and a cars and into nearby

:03:46.:03:51.

streets. At one point to Fiorentina rise so that police could climb up

:03:51.:03:56.

to search rooftops. The police helicopter also makes a full flight

:03:56.:04:01.

over the area. Five cars were taken away for forensic examination. The

:04:02.:04:05.

42-year-old victim was said be a man from Paul, although he has not

:04:05.:04:11.

yet been formally identified. His next of kin have been informed. One

:04:11.:04:14.

resident, that this is normally a very quiet street, mainly elderly

:04:15.:04:19.

people and families. No one wanted to talk on camera but a couple of

:04:19.:04:23.

people told me they heard shouting soon after midnight. So far, there

:04:23.:04:27.

have been no arrests and police have asked for any information.

:04:27.:04:31.

would like to make an appeal to anybody with any information or who

:04:31.:04:35.

was in that location to come forward and help us with our

:04:35.:04:45.
:04:45.:04:49.

inquiries. The results of the post- mortem should be known by tomorrow.

:04:49.:04:53.

A teacher who confronted an armed robber who hid in her school while

:04:53.:04:56.

fleeing from Sussex Police has been given a national bravery award. Sue

:04:56.:04:59.

Smith organised a lock-down at Vale First and Middle School in Worthing

:04:59.:05:03.

and led the robber to the front of the school where police were in

:05:03.:05:06.

wait and arrested him. It began when two men threatened

:05:06.:05:09.

security guards with decommissioned hand guns at a supermarket in

:05:09.:05:13.

Chichester. They made off with �17,000 and fled across West Sussex,

:05:13.:05:16.

pursued by the police. They abandoned their car at Worthing

:05:16.:05:19.

after having first rammed a police vehicle, then fled into The Vale

:05:19.:05:23.

School as parents dropped children off at the start of the school day.

:05:23.:05:27.

The men hid in toilets but were spotted by a boy, who alerted staff.

:05:27.:05:30.

Acting head Sue Smith made sure the pupils were safe in their

:05:30.:05:34.

classrooms then confronted one of the men and directed him away from

:05:34.:05:37.

the children and to the front of the building, where the police were

:05:37.:05:44.

waiting. My first thought was the safety of the children and other

:05:44.:05:51.

members of staff. That is what we did. We put into action a

:05:51.:05:54.

theoretical process that nobody Ready looked at in those emergency

:05:54.:05:59.

time. Very few of the children were actually aware of what was

:05:59.:06:02.

happening. At a ceremony in Harrogate last night, Mrs Smith

:06:02.:06:06.

received a national police bravery award, to the pride of her

:06:06.:06:12.

colleagues back in Sussex. It was quite a, did time for the school

:06:12.:06:17.

when the incident happened and the intruders came in. Thankfully, no

:06:17.:06:21.

one was hurt and the children were not in danger. But at the time they

:06:21.:06:27.

didn't know, so for Mrs Smith did deal with them and handle the event

:06:27.:06:31.

so well is a credit to her and it is so lovely for her to be

:06:31.:06:35.

recognised last night for her bravery. Last year, the robbers

:06:35.:06:39.

were jailed, the judge praising those who helped catch them, and

:06:39.:06:42.

giving a �500 reward to the schoolboy who raised the alarm. Now

:06:42.:06:45.

the teacher in charge on the day has also received national

:06:45.:06:54.

recognition for her bravery too. Now, will one of the country's most

:06:54.:06:57.

famous warships become a casino, a floating school, an underwater

:06:57.:07:02.

diving attraction or a heliport? Those were just some of the ideas

:07:02.:07:04.

being put forward after the Portsmouth-based aircraft carrier

:07:04.:07:08.

Ark Royal was put up for sale. Today was the deadline for people

:07:08.:07:12.

who wanted to buy the ship to submit their bids to the MoD. Steve

:07:12.:07:21.

Humphrey reports. Lots of surplus military equipment

:07:21.:07:26.

is put up for sale on this Ministry of Defence website, everything from

:07:26.:07:30.

army trousers and shirts to use military vehicles and even armoured

:07:30.:07:35.

personnel carriers. Also up for sale has been the Portsmouth based

:07:35.:07:42.

aircraft carrier HMS Ark Royal, all 19,000 tonnes of her. No details

:07:42.:07:45.

have been released so far about the bits that have been made for the

:07:45.:07:47.

ship but over the past few months there had been plenty of

:07:47.:07:52.

suggestions about how to use her. One Chinese businessman said he

:07:52.:07:56.

wanted to convert Park Royal into a massive casino, in a kind of

:07:56.:08:01.

floating Monte Carlo. Another has been looking at the possibility of

:08:01.:08:06.

using the ship as a helicopter landing pad in central London. A

:08:06.:08:10.

group based in the West Country is bidding to sink Park Royal off the

:08:10.:08:18.

Devon coast near Torquay, creating a new diving attraction. It has

:08:18.:08:24.

been proven in our area, by the ship that was sunken in 2004. It

:08:25.:08:30.

has brought sustainable jobs and revenue into the bay. The Ark Royal

:08:30.:08:35.

is 210 metres long which is even bigger. Another Chinese businessman

:08:35.:08:39.

has discuss plans to turn the ship into a floating boarding-school in

:08:39.:08:49.
:08:49.:08:56.

One strong possibility is that Park Royal could simply be broken up

:08:56.:09:01.

like her sister ship HMS Invincible. People involved in the bidding

:09:01.:09:06.

process think the scrap value of the ship is around �2 million. The

:09:06.:09:16.
:09:16.:09:30.

MoD will announce the winner of the bidding process in the autumn.

:09:30.:09:34.

A Surrey woman who swindled up to �100,000 out of men she met through

:09:34.:09:37.

lonely hearts adverts has been jailed for three years following

:09:37.:09:39.

her latest offence. 51-year-old Loraine Upritchard conned 81-year-

:09:39.:09:47.

old James Saunders from Haywards Heath. The Chief Constable of

:09:47.:09:51.

Hampshire Police has criticised a rule change the way bowel works.

:09:51.:09:57.

They can spread the pit of bail over a period of time. The Supreme

:09:57.:10:02.

Court has ruled that detectors must use all the time in one go. Coming

:10:02.:10:05.

up. The multi-coloured makeover which hasn't gone down well with

:10:05.:10:14.

It's been described by a government minister as anti-social,

:10:14.:10:21.

undesirable and unfair. Now Sussex MP Mike Weatherley is campaigning

:10:21.:10:24.

for the government to make squatting a criminal offence. Ten

:10:24.:10:27.

council properties in Brighton and Hove have been taken over by

:10:27.:10:30.

squatters in the past 18 months. Removing the squatters cost around

:10:30.:10:35.

�30,000 in legal fees. And in one property there was �40,000 worth of

:10:35.:10:40.

damage. At the moment, taking up residence in an unoccupied property

:10:40.:10:50.
:10:50.:10:50.

is a criminal offence only in Scotland. Jon Hunt reports.

:10:50.:10:53.

Landlords of this property sector has cost them �8,000 to get their

:10:53.:10:59.

house back after squatters broken almost three weeks ago. We were

:10:59.:11:02.

stunned for few days. They did not sink in that someone could come in

:11:02.:11:06.

and do this and you cannot do anything once they have come over

:11:06.:11:12.

the threshold, by whatever means, you cannot do anything. It was so

:11:12.:11:17.

painful. It was really difficult. Squatting is currently not illegal

:11:17.:11:21.

in England but the government recently announced proposals to

:11:21.:11:25.

change that. At the moment, people can go into a squat and they can be

:11:25.:11:29.

evicted and nothing will happen to them. They can move into another

:11:29.:11:33.

squat and another and so forth. I would like to see a criminal aspect

:11:34.:11:36.

to it so they can be stopped and track and the penalties increase

:11:36.:11:44.

the more they do it so that we can stop this anti-social act. Drummer

:11:44.:11:48.

at Sean Jameson is currently squatting with as much in a run-

:11:48.:11:51.

down house in Brighton. possible change in the law that

:11:51.:11:54.

they are looking it would mean we have for a little choice than to be

:11:54.:11:59.

on the street or claiming housing benefit. What gives you the right

:11:59.:12:03.

to barge away into somebody else's property? What would the general

:12:03.:12:07.

public preferred, would they prefer that we cost millions in housing

:12:07.:12:12.

benefit to be housed in a way that no one could argue about? Last

:12:12.:12:15.

night we witnessed the emotional moment when farmer Michael Bowden

:12:15.:12:19.

loaded his herd of dairy cattle in Berkshire for sale. He says he

:12:19.:12:22.

can't afford to carry on in the diary business because he's losing

:12:22.:12:26.

so much money. So today, a century of tradition went under the hammer,

:12:26.:12:34.

and our reporter Joe Campbell was there to witness it.

:12:34.:12:39.

Whether selling or buying, this is the place to be. But as he watched

:12:39.:12:44.

his herd go under the hammer, frankly, Michael Bowden would

:12:44.:12:48.

rather have been anywhere but here. Sales like this would traditionally

:12:49.:12:53.

take place on the farm but with so few dairy farmers left in Berkshire,

:12:53.:12:57.

it made more sense to bring the animals to a big market like this.

:12:57.:13:02.

Today, the buyers had come from as far away as one of the farms in the

:13:02.:13:06.

shadow of Hadrian's Wall. Nobody was taking pleasure in seeing

:13:06.:13:11.

another farmer quit the dairy trade. It is the name of the game at the

:13:11.:13:19.

moment. I feel very sad. invested quite heavily a few years

:13:19.:13:24.

ago. So we are in here for the long term. Away from the auction ring,

:13:24.:13:28.

the site was also hosting a farmers' market. It is a chance for

:13:28.:13:32.

those who do not want to be beholden to the supermarkets to try

:13:32.:13:36.

to make a living from the land. But her dozen Jersey cows will never

:13:36.:13:43.

put her in the big time. If we can get a full-time man's wage and a

:13:43.:13:47.

part-time wage from it, I would consider that the success. And if

:13:47.:13:52.

you have no boring so I think you'll be all right. This bird may

:13:52.:13:56.

have been a rather bigger affair but for those who worked with this

:13:56.:14:00.

animal parts, have an emotional tie with what they did. They anyone

:14:00.:14:04.

yesterday and you can hear the difference in the village, not just

:14:04.:14:09.

the farm. But although it seems quiet and it is just a natural.

:14:09.:14:13.

so the hammer came down on one sentry of dairy farming for want of

:14:13.:14:19.

your family. I'm glad it is over. Literally. Others said, it has been

:14:19.:14:24.

a painful few days and I wanted it to finish. I wanted it to be done

:14:24.:14:29.

so that we can look forward and concentrate on something else.

:14:29.:14:33.

Tonight, the herd has been broken up, the cows bound for new homes,

:14:33.:14:37.

and perhaps something has gone for ever.

:14:37.:14:40.

With just a year to go before the Olympics take place, two Hampshire

:14:41.:14:44.

teenagers have travelled to one of Africa's largest slums to find out

:14:44.:14:47.

how sport is offering young Kenyans a lifeline out of poverty and

:14:47.:14:50.

violence. The pupils from Oaklands Catholic School in Waterlooville

:14:50.:14:54.

travelled with the charity Cafod that pays for some of the running

:14:54.:15:04.
:15:04.:15:04.

costs of a sports centre based at the slum.

:15:04.:15:09.

A far cry from their Hampshire home, this is where the journey starts

:15:09.:15:17.

for two teenagers. This is one of the largest slums in Kenya. Tin

:15:17.:15:22.

shacks are reality here, with no proper sewerage system or clean

:15:22.:15:26.

water. This is a place where many young people turn to a life of

:15:26.:15:32.

drugs and crime. But this sports centre, which is supported by the

:15:32.:15:36.

charity Cafod has already offered young people in the slum an

:15:36.:15:41.

alternative to the underworld that exists. We saw how sport is very

:15:41.:15:46.

important to them and how it gives them hope and keeps them away from

:15:46.:15:50.

the drugs and violence. All the kids, they do sport then Dickens

:15:50.:15:54.

them occupied in the evenings. A lot of them have gone on to

:15:54.:16:03.

national level, so rarely gives them hope. The slum is also home to

:16:03.:16:07.

the city's rubbish dump where children are not scour the side for

:16:07.:16:12.

items they can sell or eat it. people tell me that charity begins

:16:12.:16:17.

at home, then I disagree with them. They haven't been to the places and

:16:17.:16:21.

seen or heard or smelt anything about the slums and do not know

:16:21.:16:27.

what they have until they come here. Exchanging netball rules for karate

:16:27.:16:32.

tips, these Hampshire girls find common ground with the Kenyan kids.

:16:32.:16:36.

But their differences still remain. The challenge is that some kids

:16:36.:16:43.

face art testimony to why centres like this one are important.

:16:43.:16:46.

It's taken 76 days of gruelling physical effort, but a team of four

:16:46.:16:49.

men from Dorset today achieved their dream of rowing across the

:16:49.:16:52.

Indian Ocean. They arrived in Mauritius shortly before midday our

:16:52.:16:57.

time. What makes their feat even more impressive was that the crew

:16:57.:17:00.

of Indian Runner 4 were the first ever four-man team to complete the

:17:00.:17:06.

crossing completely unsupported. Jo Kent reports.

:17:06.:17:10.

The sight they longed to see - brothers Ed and Ollie Wells, James

:17:10.:17:14.

Kayall and Tom Kelly started their adventure in Australia in April. It

:17:14.:17:23.

ended this morning, 3,000 miles away in Mauritius. All four of us

:17:23.:17:28.

are in a state of shock. Just seeing so many happy faces. Their

:17:28.:17:32.

boat is only the 12th rowing boat to cross the Indian Ocean - and

:17:32.:17:39.

they were the first team of four to do it without extra support.

:17:39.:17:44.

were doing two hours on, two hours off, every day for 76 days. It is

:17:44.:17:50.

full on. The cabin is so hot and you are sweating. It is a

:17:50.:17:53.

disgusting environment. Just had a shower for the first time in two

:17:53.:17:58.

months. That was extraordinary! There was a close encounter with a

:17:58.:18:06.

tanker, wild waves and weather - but also a moment to treasure.

:18:06.:18:09.

Seeing her 25 ft minke whale that passed under the poet a number of

:18:09.:18:14.

times for a couple of hours, giving us an opting TT takes them for some

:18:14.:18:18.

pictures and it was a magical moment. Tired, sore but still good

:18:18.:18:22.

friends they hope to raise �100,000 for charity - but is this the end

:18:22.:18:28.

of their adventures? We are hearing cries from behind us not to

:18:28.:18:32.

anything like this again and based on that we may have to decline any

:18:32.:18:37.

offers to go rowing and engine. -- donation. But you never know, watch

:18:37.:18:41.

this space! While celebrations continue, another team from the

:18:41.:18:45.

south is still at sea. James Adair and Ben Stelling are two thirds of

:18:45.:18:48.

the way through their Indian Ocean crossing. For this crew there's

:18:48.:18:54.

five days of extremely well earned rest and relaxation.

:18:54.:18:58.

A great record and a great achievement. Well done. Tony has

:18:58.:19:08.

the sport. Bournemouth chairman Eddie Mitchell

:19:08.:19:11.

has launched a scathing attack on Burnley, managed by former Cherries

:19:11.:19:21.

boss Eddie Howe. Mitchell is angry at the decision of the club's chief

:19:21.:19:28.

scout, Des Taylor to resign. Taylor cited a lack of ambition at the

:19:28.:19:32.

club among his reasons for quitting. But Mitchell has issued a statement

:19:32.:19:34.

criticising Burnley's conduct, claiming they have been underhand

:19:34.:19:39.

and unprofessional. Eddie Howe left Bournemouth for Burnley last season,

:19:39.:19:49.
:19:49.:19:51.

taking assistant Jason Tindall with him.

:19:51.:19:54.

A teenager from Guildford has won bronze in her debut appearance at

:19:54.:19:57.

the European Paralympic Swimming Championships. Hannah Russell was

:19:57.:20:00.

competing in the S12 category for visually impaired athletes. She

:20:00.:20:04.

came in third in the 100 metres butterfly and in doing so broke her

:20:04.:20:13.

existing British record. It is my first major international

:20:13.:20:18.

competition. I have just recently come on, so coming here and winning

:20:18.:20:22.

a medal has been very good and I'm really pleased with myself. But my

:20:22.:20:28.

main event is on Friday, which is the 100 backstroke. Hampshire's bid

:20:28.:20:31.

to extend their winning run in Twenty20 cricket tonight at the

:20:31.:20:34.

Rose Bowl, but they are without their wicket keeper Nic Pothas. He

:20:34.:20:37.

underwent an emergency operation last night to remove his appendix

:20:37.:20:41.

and will miss the next two to three weeks. Hampshire take on Essex

:20:41.:20:44.

tonight. It's live on BBC Radio Solent. The match starts at 7.10pm.

:20:44.:20:48.

One of the big aims of the Olympics is sporting legacy, with the aim to

inspire two million people to take up sport or physical activity. This

:20:52.:20:56.

month Southampton is trying to do its bit to get more people involved.

:20:56.:20:58.

It's launched its Sportathon campaign, which allows residents to

:20:58.:21:03.

try out dozens of activities for free.

:21:04.:21:07.

A keep fit class for the over 50s. These ladies come every week but

:21:07.:21:16.

this month, with a Sportathon card, they and others can attend for free.

:21:16.:21:21.

When I am thinking about coming I think you're really want to go, but

:21:21.:21:25.

one time here, it is great. And Demeter with the others and we have

:21:25.:21:31.

a gossip as well. You do feel good. As they sleep with are advancing

years and our aches and pains. think more people of Allah age

:21:35.:21:40.

group should join it. A lot of them are afraid to try. It's not just

:21:40.:21:43.

fitness classes that are trying to get more people through the doors.

:21:43.:21:46.

There are taster sessions in golf and mountain biking, swimming,

:21:46.:21:52.

walking, even a circus skills workshop - the list goes on. It is

:21:52.:21:56.

for us to showcase what is going on in the city and get people

:21:56.:22:00.

physically active and having fun with sport. These ladies are

:22:00.:22:03.

dedicated to their keep fit regime. The council sports team is hoping

:22:03.:22:07.

others will catch the fitness bug so they keep coming once the

:22:07.:22:15.

month's freebies have ended. If this is going all around, we

:22:15.:22:19.

will be the fittest country in the world with these Olympics. It would

:22:19.:22:24.

not do us any harm. Legacy is what it is all about. Look at this, to

:22:24.:22:34.
:22:34.:22:39.

people either side of me, fit Sunny spells and scattered showers

:22:39.:22:49.
:22:49.:22:56.

today. We do have some weather It was a mixture of sunny spells

:22:56.:23:00.

and scattered showers and the rain will continue for some tonight. It

:23:00.:23:05.

is a weather front moving in from the Atlantic. The weather front

:23:05.:23:09.

edging in slowly. Can only ever Dorset and Wiltshire so it is

:23:09.:23:14.

moving eastwards, but very slowly. It could be heavy in places. It

:23:14.:23:18.

will linger over the southern counties almost affecting all of us

:23:18.:23:22.

through the early hours of the morning. Some heavy bursts in

:23:22.:23:26.

places and some clear skies developing the further west you are.

:23:26.:23:31.

Temperatures still fairly mild. The main band of rain will edge its way

:23:31.:23:35.

after what the North Sea first thing tomorrow morning. Lingering

:23:35.:23:38.

for some over parts of Sussex so maybe a wet day for most in Sussex

:23:38.:23:43.

tomorrow. Highs of 18 or 19 Celsius and some blustery showers about

:23:43.:23:48.

with a strong southerly breeze. Tomorrow night is a repeat

:23:48.:23:52.

performance of tonight. Another band of rain edges into parts of

:23:52.:23:56.

Dorset through the early as of the morning and temperatures will stir

:23:56.:24:02.

a mild once again. On Friday, another band of rain were ledges

:24:02.:24:07.

way in but it will break up in places. The low pressure is not

:24:07.:24:12.

going anywhere quickly so the winds will be brisk for the rest of the

:24:13.:24:16.

week. Saturday probably the best day of the week to enjoy the

:24:16.:24:23.

sunshine. It possibly is the best day of the weekend. Further showers

:24:23.:24:28.

on Sunday that they will be isolated. The weekend is drier with

:24:28.:24:33.

more sunshine than those working week. A few showers dotted round on

:24:33.:24:38.

Thursday and Friday, maybe the odd roll of thunder and some hail.

:24:38.:24:42.

Fairly blustery southerly or south- westerly winds. On Saturday enjoy

:24:42.:24:50.

the sunshine if you can. Showers possible also on Sunday. For the

:24:50.:24:55.

full five days you forecast, you can walk -- blog on to the website

:24:55.:25:04.

I am guessing that Saturday is the beach they? Yes, why not. The owner

:25:04.:25:08.

of a beach hut in Hove has caused a stir by ignoring years of tradition

:25:08.:25:11.

and painting his property multicoloured. The rules of

:25:11.:25:15.

ownership state that the exterior of the hut must be kept in good

:25:15.:25:18.

decorative order and redecorated every year - but the individual

:25:18.:25:27.

taste of this owner hasn't gone down well with the local council.

:25:27.:25:33.

Uniform in size and in colour. Apart from the one that is breaking

:25:33.:25:37.

ranks and causing a bit of controversy. The owner received a

:25:37.:25:44.

letter from the council telling him to spruce up his hut. What they

:25:44.:25:49.

were expecting was a lick of paint at the very most. So many people

:25:49.:25:52.

down here love it, they think it is an inspiration. They wonder why

:25:52.:25:59.

they can't do the same. It is cheerful and pride. A beach up like

:25:59.:26:04.

this would set you back around �12,000, but the council still own

:26:04.:26:09.

the land. They least it to the owner and that means the owner has

:26:09.:26:15.

to stick to the council's colour scheme, which is green and dark

:26:15.:26:20.

cherry. It has certainly been grabbing the attention of people

:26:20.:26:25.

passing by. The doors are wonderful. But I think it's something like

:26:25.:26:29.

this were to go on and everybody got the idea, he would look a bit

:26:29.:26:36.

odd. If you -- everyone that buys one or rent one knows they have to

:26:36.:26:40.

depicting keeping with all the other beach huts. I think they have

:26:40.:26:46.

gone over the top, but it looks very nice. For this is Brighton, it

:26:46.:26:51.

is so well known for being out there and different. So it seems

:26:51.:26:56.

this hut will be relinquishing its rebellious ropes and falling in

:26:56.:27:02.

line once again. Delight the colours? I like the way

:27:02.:27:06.

it is, a bit of colour and a bit of variety. I thought it was quite

:27:06.:27:12.

Sixties, a bit retro which is nice for a beach hut. Next, I think so

:27:12.:27:16.

why should two stripes. But think he might be in trouble suggesting

:27:16.:27:21.

that! The council be after you for stop that is about it from us for

:27:21.:27:25.

this evening. Tomorrow we will be talking to a student who has won a

:27:25.:27:30.
