Hello I'm Sally Taylor. Welcome to Hello I'm Sally Taylor. Welcome to | :00:29. | :00:29. | |
South Today. In tonight's programme... | :00:30. | :00:32. | |
Hampshire police are being investigated following the death of | :00:32. | :00:35. | |
a young man found in a bin. Open for business - the �20 million | :00:35. | :00:37. | |
rapid transit route. And disappointment for the marathon | :00:37. | :00:41. | |
runner who won't be going to the Olympics. It was a difficult thing | :00:41. | :00:45. | |
to watch Euro Olympic dream disappear after at 18 or 19 miles. | :00:45. | :00:54. | |
Hampshire Constabulary is being investigated following the death of | :00:54. | :00:57. | |
Jamie Dack, whose burnt body was found in a bin in Southampton | :00:57. | :01:04. | |
earlier this month. It has emerged that an alleged assault on the 22- | :01:04. | :01:07. | |
year-old was reported to police more than two weeks before he was | :01:07. | :01:11. | |
found dead. The force has asked the Independent Police Complaints | :01:11. | :01:17. | |
Commission to examine the actions of its officers. Rachael Canter has | :01:17. | :01:19. | |
the story. Jamie Dack's body was discovered | :01:19. | :01:22. | |
here on the Empress Road Industrial Estate by Firefighters on Easter | :01:22. | :01:25. | |
Sunday. He had been stabbed in the neck several times, put in a bin | :01:25. | :01:28. | |
and set on fire. Police say he had been kidnapped and held before | :01:28. | :01:35. | |
being killed. Just over two weeks earlier, on March 21st, officers | :01:35. | :01:38. | |
were told Jamie had been assaulted. Police were then contacted again | :01:38. | :01:43. | |
when Jamie was reported missing two days before he was found dead. | :01:43. | :01:45. | |
The Independent Police Complaints Commission is examining what | :01:45. | :01:49. | |
officers did after receiving this information. Its Commissioner said | :01:49. | :01:52. | |
today, "It is my duty to ensure we apply our independent scrutiny to | :01:52. | :01:53. | |
apply our independent scrutiny to hampshire Constabulary's management | :01:53. | :01:56. | |
of the assault allegation, as well as how information they received | :01:56. | :02:06. | |
:02:06. | :02:08. | ||
regarding Mr Dack was progressed." Hampshire Constabulary says it | :02:08. | :02:11. | |
asked the IPCC to carry out an independent investigation, saying | :02:11. | :02:15. | |
today... "Hampshire Constabulary voluntarily referred the matter to | :02:15. | :02:18. | |
the IPCC. Detectives from the major investigation team are continuing | :02:18. | :02:21. | |
to lead the criminal investigation into Jamie Dack's murder for which | :02:21. | :02:30. | |
Jamie Dack had been staying here at a hostel for homeless young people | :02:30. | :02:33. | |
in the weeks leading to his death. Staff were working to find him a | :02:33. | :02:36. | |
permanent home. His family have called him a loving son and brother | :02:36. | :02:41. | |
who liked to chat and made friends easily. Three men and a woman have | :02:41. | :02:43. | |
been charged with Jamie's murder, false imprisonment and conspiracy | :02:43. | :02:53. | |
:02:53. | :02:58. | ||
to rob. They are due back in court The jury in the trial of a man | :02:58. | :03:02. | |
accused of murdering his girlfriend has been shown CCTV footage of her | :03:02. | :03:07. | |
last night out. Emily Longley was from New Zealand but was living | :03:07. | :03:11. | |
with her grandparents as she was studying at Brockenhurst College. | :03:11. | :03:20. | |
The 17-year-old was found in Elliot These are the last moving pictures | :03:20. | :03:23. | |
of Emily Longley. The jury at winchester crown court was shown | :03:23. | :03:26. | |
this CCTV footage from Cafe Shore in Sandbanks, taken on May 6th last | :03:26. | :03:32. | |
year. Emily had rowed with Eliot Turner and gone alone with friends. | :03:32. | :03:35. | |
Oliver George, a mutual friend, said Mr Turner had criticised her, | :03:35. | :03:37. | |
saying she was dressed inappropriately and would attract | :03:37. | :03:42. | |
other boys. Emily told him she would wear whatever she wanted. | :03:43. | :03:45. | |
Eliot Turner suspected she was seeing someone else and followed | :03:45. | :03:48. | |
her to Cafe Shore. The jurors read text messages from her friends | :03:49. | :03:53. | |
claiming he had a hissy fit and tried to punch her. At this point | :03:53. | :03:57. | |
Emily leaves, shortly afterwards Eliot emerges. Oliver George told | :03:57. | :04:00. | |
the court he was shouting "She's ruined my life, she's twisted my | :04:00. | :04:06. | |
heart." The jury was also shown CCTV footage taken a week earlier | :04:06. | :04:11. | |
at the Bella Rosa bar in Canford cliffs. The prosecution allege Mr | :04:11. | :04:15. | |
Turner assaulted emily off camera, smashing her head against a table. | :04:15. | :04:18. | |
Seven days later the 17-year-old's body was found in mr Turner's bed | :04:18. | :04:27. | |
at his parent's house in The prosecution says he strangled | :04:27. | :04:31. | |
her. Elliot Turner denies murder and attempting to pervert the | :04:31. | :04:36. | |
course of justice. His parents are accused of covering up for him. | :04:36. | :04:40. | |
They also deny attempting to pervert the course of justice, and | :04:40. | :04:50. | |
:04:50. | :04:50. | ||
The wild weather this morning seriously disrupted ferry services | :04:50. | :04:53. | |
and brought down several trees across the south. On Southsea sea | :04:53. | :04:55. | |
front, five storeys of scaffolding were blown down from the Royal | :04:55. | :04:58. | |
Beach Hotel. Luckily the painting team had not started work and no- | :04:58. | :05:02. | |
one was hurt. But the scaffolding fell onto half a dozen cars parked | :05:02. | :05:06. | |
below and some local residents had a narrow escape. | :05:06. | :05:10. | |
I thought maybe a tree had come down or something, but it wasn't. | :05:10. | :05:14. | |
Blair looked out of my window across the road and I saw it fall | :05:14. | :05:18. | |
down, with all the balcony, as well. I think I have a bit of the balcony | :05:18. | :05:25. | |
in my flat, because it blew across. I have a large piece of black cast | :05:25. | :05:30. | |
iron with loads of nails that smashed into my window. | :05:30. | :05:34. | |
More on the weather and its impact on the hosepipe ban, or not, lead | :05:34. | :05:39. | |
to run the programme, and we will have the forecast for you. -- later | :05:39. | :05:44. | |
on in the programme. The insurance company Zurich is to shed almost | :05:44. | :05:48. | |
180 jobs in Hampshire. More than 160 of those jobs will go at the | :05:48. | :05:50. | |
company's Whiteley offices, and the remainder in Farnborough. | :05:50. | :05:53. | |
The company says the job losses are the result of restructuring | :05:53. | :05:55. | |
following the launch of a new online car insurance product. | :05:55. | :05:58. | |
Southern Electric are taking on 200 new staff at their call centre in | :05:58. | :06:02. | |
Havant. The new employees will be ringing customers to make sure they | :06:02. | :06:05. | |
are on the cheapest tarif. The company employs 2,600 people in | :06:05. | :06:08. | |
Havant. It has already had applications from staff at British | :06:08. | :06:11. | |
Gas in Southampton, who learnt their jobs were under threat | :06:11. | :06:16. | |
earlier this week. We will definitely consider | :06:16. | :06:20. | |
applications. We want to look at the personality, but we are careful | :06:20. | :06:26. | |
to make sure the people we employ care for customers. We will | :06:26. | :06:29. | |
definitely considerate, and I know that about 20 people from British | :06:29. | :06:33. | |
Gas have already approached us about a bowl, so there is some | :06:33. | :06:43. | |
:06:43. | :06:43. | ||
opportunity there. -- about role. A �20 million rapid | :06:43. | :06:46. | |
transit system linking Fareham and Gosport has been officially opened. | :06:46. | :06:49. | |
The disused railway line between the two towns has been converted | :06:49. | :06:52. | |
into a busway. It runs parallel to one of the region's most congested | :06:52. | :06:55. | |
roads. But how much difference will it make? Let's join our Transport | :06:55. | :06:58. | |
Correspondent Paul Clifton, who's in Gosport this evening. | :06:58. | :07:03. | |
It has taken decades of debate to get these buses on to a completed | :07:03. | :07:08. | |
bus way. Originally this was going to be a tram system, diving into a | :07:08. | :07:12. | |
tunnel beneath Portsmouth Harbour. That proved too expensive, so | :07:12. | :07:21. | |
instead we have these buses on a �25 million system stretching from | :07:21. | :07:24. | |
Gosport into Fareham. And passengers really like it. | :07:24. | :07:29. | |
Only buses are allowed to use this brand new road. There is one every | :07:29. | :07:32. | |
seven minutes. It is a much better transport link | :07:32. | :07:38. | |
for me to Fareham. I'd hate sitting in traffic, but as my one problem | :07:38. | :07:42. | |
with Gosport, it is one road income of one road out. | :07:42. | :07:45. | |
I don't think it will reduce traffic at all, which is what I | :07:45. | :07:49. | |
believe it was designed for. A small number of opponents took | :07:49. | :07:56. | |
their case all the way to the Supreme Court. That trick -- | :07:56. | :07:59. | |
delayed construction by an ear. I personally don't think it will | :07:59. | :08:04. | |
make a lot of difference except you have some very classy buses burning | :08:04. | :08:08. | |
on the route. I don't think it will make any difference to the town at | :08:08. | :08:13. | |
either end. The A32 between Fareham and Gosport | :08:13. | :08:17. | |
is busy. What is not clear is how much traffic venue but this will | :08:17. | :08:19. | |
remove. We're talking about hundreds of | :08:19. | :08:26. | |
thousands of passengers using the past it -- service each year. A bus | :08:26. | :08:29. | |
carrying 50 people can take 50 cars of the road. | :08:29. | :08:33. | |
Compare it with the Cambridge guided bus way which opened last | :08:33. | :08:37. | |
summer. Using 60 miles of disused railway, it is the longest in the | :08:37. | :08:44. | |
world. It has already carried one million passengers, but it also | :08:44. | :08:46. | |
cost �180 million. In time, Hampshire plans to spend much more | :08:46. | :08:50. | |
than that. On the next phase and the one after | :08:50. | :08:56. | |
that, and after that, we will net - - need to spend about �2 billion | :08:56. | :09:01. | |
over the next ten years in South East Hampshire's overall transport | :09:01. | :09:05. | |
interest -- transport integration and infrastructure. Transport is | :09:05. | :09:08. | |
one of those things you need to measure over decades. | :09:08. | :09:13. | |
Passengers can keep up with BBC News and weather at the bus-stops. | :09:13. | :09:17. | |
But this afternoon most bosses here have been largely empty. | :09:17. | :09:22. | |
This is part of a bigger plant system. The council owns another | :09:22. | :09:27. | |
one mile of disused railway. It has planning permission, but does not | :09:27. | :09:32. | |
have the money. No one is willing to tell me how many passengers this | :09:32. | :09:37. | |
system is projected to carry. Will it really take cars of the | :09:37. | :09:42. | |
congested A32? It might. But, experience elsewhere it suggests | :09:42. | :09:48. | |
one up -- 1% or 2% of traffic is a likely figure. | :09:48. | :09:51. | |
Workers at Ford, which has a Transit van factory at Swaythling | :09:51. | :09:53. | |
near Southampton, are to be balloted nationally over industrial | :09:53. | :09:56. | |
action. The Unite union says the decision follows concerns over | :09:56. | :09:59. | |
plans to close the company's final salary pension scheme and what it | :09:59. | :10:03. | |
says are attempts to create a two- tier pay structure. | :10:03. | :10:05. | |
Still to come in this evening's South Today... | :10:05. | :10:09. | |
Going with the ice floe - rowing to the north pole. We hear about the | :10:09. | :10:18. | |
adventure from one of the intrepid rowers. | :10:18. | :10:26. | |
It is the diagnosis no-one wants to hear. Finding out you or a loved | :10:26. | :10:29. | |
one has cancer can be one of the most difficult events anyone has to | :10:29. | :10:32. | |
face. But a hospital that treats the disease in Berkshire is hoping | :10:32. | :10:35. | |
to make that news a little easier to handle. Former cancer patients | :10:35. | :10:38. | |
in Reading have helped create a film which will be given to | :10:38. | :10:40. | |
patients from today. Ben Moore reports. | :10:40. | :10:45. | |
My youngest was four years old. I sat them down and had to tell | :10:45. | :10:50. | |
them all that I had cancer. He to must surely be one of the most | :10:50. | :10:55. | |
frightening moments in life. -- it must surely be. | :10:55. | :11:02. | |
My daughter became upset, she was 13 at the time. I thought, if only | :11:02. | :11:05. | |
I had something I could have slotted in the DVD machine, we | :11:05. | :11:10. | |
could have sat there and I could have said to them, do you want to | :11:10. | :11:13. | |
watch something with me and learn a little about it? | :11:13. | :11:17. | |
Trudy has been fighting cancer for the best part of a decade and is | :11:17. | :11:20. | |
the driving force behind a simple idea. | :11:20. | :11:24. | |
There are different teams for different types of cancer... | :11:24. | :11:27. | |
And DVD that shows every facet of what a cancer patient will have to | :11:27. | :11:32. | |
go through, made by patient, for patients. | :11:32. | :11:35. | |
The Royal Berkshire Hospital diagnoses around 2,500 people per | :11:35. | :11:39. | |
year with cancer and many end up here on the chemotherapy ward, some | :11:39. | :11:44. | |
for up to six hours per day. The hospital says the fight against | :11:44. | :11:49. | |
cancer for the most part is in the mind, and with this DVD they're | :11:49. | :11:53. | |
hoping to prepare patients mentally for the fate of their lives. | :11:53. | :11:56. | |
The hospital already claims success in its cancer treatment. After | :11:56. | :12:01. | |
three years, 90 % of children treated are cured and 50 % of | :12:01. | :12:06. | |
adults. It insists the DVD in no way replaces conventional support | :12:06. | :12:09. | |
for patients. What often happens, even if you | :12:10. | :12:14. | |
come up with a relative or friend, you forget to ask things. There is | :12:14. | :12:19. | |
also an element that people like to take away things. With a DVD, it is | :12:19. | :12:23. | |
in addition to the face-to-face work, it does not replace anything, | :12:23. | :12:27. | |
it supplements it up. So at times you do not know what | :12:27. | :12:32. | |
the questions are, so sometimes you get the feel for, all, right, I | :12:32. | :12:38. | |
would like to know more about that. That is what that word means. | :12:38. | :12:43. | |
Every cancer patient will get a DVD at the point of diagnosis. Trudy | :12:43. | :12:46. | |
and the Royal Berkshire hope it will make a difference at the start | :12:47. | :12:52. | |
of a very difficult journey. Cancer patients will be a other cancer | :12:52. | :12:58. | |
patients. As April showers go the rain we've had so far this month | :12:58. | :13:01. | |
has been pretty remarkable. In the last 24 hours Wiggonholt, near | :13:01. | :13:04. | |
Pulborough in West Sussex, saw 27mm of rain, which is just over an inch. | :13:04. | :13:07. | |
But despite the deluge, hosepipe bans remain in force across much of | :13:07. | :13:11. | |
the region. So, is the wet spell set to make any difference to the | :13:11. | :13:14. | |
water shortage? Briony Leyland reports. | :13:14. | :13:19. | |
Do not everyone is as unruffled as the docks by the downpours, but as | :13:19. | :13:24. | |
the drenching continues we can take comfort that the rain is much- | :13:24. | :13:28. | |
needed. How much rain would ease pressure on water supplies? The | :13:28. | :13:31. | |
answer, according to the Environment Agency, is a lot more | :13:31. | :13:35. | |
than we have had so far. This will run off and disappear | :13:35. | :13:39. | |
very rapidly. This is a stream near all its food, | :13:39. | :13:44. | |
feeding into a river which supplies 4,500 people with water. After a | :13:44. | :13:48. | |
normal winter it would be flowing fast, but we have had two dry | :13:48. | :13:54. | |
winters and a very dry March. We have had about two quarters of - | :13:54. | :13:59. | |
- three-quarters of the rainfall in the past two years. It will not | :13:59. | :14:02. | |
make up for hundreds of millimetres of rain like and that will not | :14:02. | :14:06. | |
happen for another winter. The rivers are fed by rain, and | :14:06. | :14:11. | |
when there is enough of it water from the River Ouse is pumped in. | :14:11. | :14:13. | |
South East Water say that despite the wet weather level Savell | :14:13. | :14:17. | |
leaders and by 2% in the last three weeks. | :14:17. | :14:21. | |
The his reservoir should be full up and it is still only at 57 %, so | :14:21. | :14:25. | |
coming into the summer period we are still way off. We're looking | :14:25. | :14:30. | |
for weeks, if not months, of rain before we are close to resource | :14:30. | :14:34. | |
levels being back to where they should be. A all that means | :14:34. | :14:36. | |
hosepipe ban is will remain in place. | :14:37. | :14:41. | |
Keen gardeners Simon Hodson is resigned to a summer of self | :14:41. | :14:45. | |
reliance when it comes to making his garden grow. His top tip - | :14:45. | :14:49. | |
layers of mulch. But it's down to a good depth, | :14:49. | :14:54. | |
three off four inches. That reduces the need for watering | :14:54. | :14:58. | |
and gives healthier plants which are better able to resist pests and | :14:58. | :15:05. | |
diseases, and also drought. Water but sales soared in March, a | :15:05. | :15:15. | |
precious resource when the rain cannot fall fast enough. | :15:15. | :15:18. | |
Last summer a team of five rowers aimed to become the first to row a | :15:19. | :15:22. | |
boat to the magnetic North pole, a point that had only ever been | :15:22. | :15:24. | |
reached across solid ice. A BBC camera crew followed the incredible | :15:25. | :15:27. | |
journey for a documentary being shown tonight. In their tiny boat, | :15:27. | :15:30. | |
the team navigated some of the world's most remote seaways, taking | :15:30. | :15:33. | |
on fast-flowing sea ice that could crush their boat and roaming polar | :15:33. | :15:37. | |
bears. Rob Sleep from Lymington was part of the team, and he joins me | :15:37. | :15:44. | |
in the studio now. What was the idea behind the trip? | :15:44. | :15:51. | |
It was a boy's own adventure, the thing to highlight was the fact it | :15:51. | :15:55. | |
is now possible. Ten years ago it would not be possible to roll in | :15:55. | :15:58. | |
these waters because it would have been ice. That is presumably | :15:58. | :16:03. | |
something, presumably people talk about global warming? | :16:03. | :16:09. | |
Yes, the difference has stuck at -- is stark. We have been involved in | :16:09. | :16:13. | |
expeditions previously, but a three or four years ago it would not be | :16:13. | :16:18. | |
possible, it has changed that fast. How difficult is this? It was a 22 | :16:18. | :16:22. | |
gauge any come and I understand at times you had to drag it across | :16:22. | :16:26. | |
ice? Yes, the first ten days we were | :16:26. | :16:29. | |
expecting ice and there was nothing there, which is a sign of how much | :16:29. | :16:34. | |
has melted. The second half it really kicked in. We had fast- | :16:34. | :16:37. | |
flowing ice. Presumably this is not a straight | :16:37. | :16:42. | |
line you were going, either. 450 miles from here to there, it was | :16:42. | :16:47. | |
not like that, was it? No, lots of weaving around, and you | :16:47. | :16:52. | |
would spend half an hour or an hour going in one direction only to find | :16:52. | :16:56. | |
it was blanked off and you would have become all the way back again. | :16:56. | :17:02. | |
The most dangerous moment for you? Being trapped in the race, having | :17:02. | :17:06. | |
to lift the boat, but probably the most dangerous would be dealing | :17:06. | :17:11. | |
with polar bears. We had one particular moment where a beer was | :17:11. | :17:15. | |
probably within five or ten feet of a tent with two of our Crook | :17:16. | :17:19. | |
slipping inside. What do you do in those situations? | :17:19. | :17:23. | |
We had all been trained, but fortunately we had one guy still | :17:23. | :17:28. | |
awake writing a blog and he distracted the bear as much as he | :17:28. | :17:33. | |
could whilst I got out with a really loud bang and that the shoot | :17:33. | :17:40. | |
in the air and it scares the bear away. We're so foreign to them that | :17:40. | :17:44. | |
they are on edge anyway. It is a fantastic adventure and you | :17:45. | :17:48. | |
have come back with amazing footage, and we will see more of it tonight. | :17:48. | :17:51. | |
Thank you so much for being with us this evening. | :17:51. | :17:54. | |
And you can see Rowing The Arctic And you can see Rowing The Arctic | :17:54. | :18:04. | |
And you can see Rowing The Arctic tonight at 10.45pm here on BBC One. | :18:04. | :18:09. | |
And now on to support. Chris Temple, listing to that one polar bears. | :18:09. | :18:18. | |
That was a little scary, wasn't it? Brighton and Hove Albion Football | :18:18. | :18:21. | |
Club has been given permission for a big increase in capacity at its | :18:21. | :18:24. | |
stadium at Falmer. The Amex, as it is known, only opened last summer, | :18:24. | :18:27. | |
but every match there has sold-out. Today the city council approved | :18:27. | :18:30. | |
8,000 more seats within the existing structure of the stadium, | :18:30. | :18:33. | |
taking the capacity to more than 30,000. The club says it will mean | :18:33. | :18:37. | |
an even greater boost to the local economy. | :18:37. | :18:47. | |
:18:47. | :18:55. | ||
We have sold over 230,000 pies, and the lady that makes them has had to | :18:55. | :18:59. | |
expand her factory. We have sold thousands of pints of ale and they | :18:59. | :19:04. | |
have had to increase production. Everyone has benefited. | :19:04. | :19:06. | |
The administrators running Portsmouth Football Club have made | :19:06. | :19:08. | |
four staff redundant today, including club ambassador Linvoy | :19:08. | :19:11. | |
Primus. Former player Primus had previously had his role reduced to | :19:11. | :19:15. | |
part-time. Up to 30 other staff have had their pay and hours cut. | :19:15. | :19:18. | |
Primus told BBC South he would maintain his links with the club. | :19:18. | :19:20. | |
Meanwhile, administrator Trevor Birch will hold a creditors meeting | :19:20. | :19:27. | |
at Fratton Park tomorrow. Surrey batsman Mark Ramprakash has | :19:27. | :19:30. | |
been disciplined by the England and Wales Cricket Board after an | :19:30. | :19:32. | |
incident in a recent game against Worcestershire. The 42-year-old was | :19:32. | :19:35. | |
given three penalty points by the ECB for using obscene, offensive or | :19:35. | :19:38. | |
insulting language. Ramprakash now has six points on his record, with | :19:38. | :19:46. | |
one further indiscretion likely to lead to a suspension. | :19:46. | :19:49. | |
Surrey play Durham tomorrow in the County Championship, while Sussex | :19:49. | :19:52. | |
will have England's Matt Prior back for their game against Warwickshire. | :19:52. | :19:58. | |
In Division Two, Hampshire host Leicestershire. Two sailors from | :19:58. | :20:01. | |
Southampton are racing close to the leading part of the fleet, in their | :20:01. | :20:04. | |
first ever transatlantic ocean race. Sam Goodchild and Nick Cherry - | :20:04. | :20:07. | |
aboard the 33ft Artemis - are four days into the AG2R race, from | :20:07. | :20:09. | |
Concarneau in France to St Barts in the Caribbean. | :20:10. | :20:13. | |
They are the only British crew in the event, and currently lie eighth | :20:13. | :20:17. | |
out of 16th boats. We will keep an eye on their progress as the race | :20:17. | :20:26. | |
continues. How do you deal with shattered | :20:26. | :20:29. | |
sporting dreams? That's what Hampshire's Louise Damen is facing | :20:29. | :20:32. | |
up to now. She went into Sunday's London Marathon on the back of | :20:32. | :20:35. | |
months of hard training in an attempt to book her place at London | :20:35. | :20:39. | |
2012. But, she fell short. So I went to find out today how she's | :20:39. | :20:40. | |
been dealing with the disappointment. | :20:40. | :20:43. | |
Everyone was talking about these three. | :20:43. | :20:46. | |
For Louise, the road to London ended on the roads of London. To | :20:46. | :20:51. | |
have a chance of taking the one available Olympic place, the | :20:51. | :20:54. | |
Winchester based athlete needed to finish as the first British woman | :20:54. | :20:59. | |
home. There was no holding back. I went out with pace and paid the | :20:59. | :21:04. | |
price for that a little later in the stages of the race. | :21:04. | :21:07. | |
Having giving up a job to focus on training full-time, Louise left | :21:07. | :21:11. | |
little to chance, but then came the realisation Olympic golds were | :21:11. | :21:15. | |
running away with her. The most difficult thing was | :21:15. | :21:19. | |
watching you Olympic dream disappear up the road after around | :21:19. | :21:24. | |
1890 miles. That is sport. A at 29, lilies is still relatively young | :21:24. | :21:28. | |
for a marathon runner. London is only her third race over | :21:28. | :21:32. | |
the distance, and she will be a prime age come the next Olympics in | :21:33. | :21:36. | |
Rio de Janeiro. There is plenty to look forward to, | :21:36. | :21:41. | |
the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow, Rio de Janeiro, the World Athletics | :21:41. | :21:44. | |
Championships in London, as well. Plenty of targets. | :21:44. | :21:50. | |
Soul, while pangs of disappointment prevail at the moment, by the time | :21:50. | :21:53. | |
the Olympics arrive in London, Louise will be a fan. | :21:53. | :22:00. | |
I love sport, obviously the teensy -- teensy be guys will run really | :22:00. | :22:03. | |
well and it will be great to see what they can do on the world stage. | :22:03. | :22:13. | |
:22:13. | :22:16. | ||
I will enjoy it. -- Team Gb. There's been another remarkable | :22:16. | :22:18. | |
success for New Forest-based triathlete Barbara Walton. She took | :22:18. | :22:21. | |
gold in her age group at the European Championships in Israel, | :22:21. | :22:24. | |
to add to the title she won in Spain last year. Barbara, from | :22:24. | :22:27. | |
Exbury, only took up running to keep fit after a successful battle | :22:27. | :22:29. | |
against breast cancer, and now she's dominating the triathlon | :22:29. | :22:39. | |
scene across Europe. Family, Reading's promotion parade. | :22:39. | :22:45. | |
Where does it start? There are full details on that | :22:45. | :22:48. | |
their website, and there will be an open-top bus. Well done | :22:48. | :22:52. | |
entertainment. Get that sunshine out, that is what | :22:52. | :22:55. | |
I say. It is a little iffy for Sunday. | :22:55. | :22:59. | |
Is it? Potentially. | :22:59. | :23:02. | |
I don't think it will dampen the spirits. | :23:02. | :23:06. | |
No. Forget about the rain, you could have a rain dance, couldn't | :23:06. | :23:11. | |
you? We don't want any more rain. | :23:11. | :23:15. | |
Actually, we do. We have a lot more rain and the | :23:15. | :23:19. | |
forecast, unfortunately. I have some portals for Today, Eddie rain | :23:19. | :23:23. | |
at times come rumbles of thunder and like income as well. Parts of | :23:23. | :23:29. | |

period of time, in the last 24 hours. There is still a Met Office | :23:34. | :23:38. | |

this evening. Further showers, heavy, perhaps thundery with | :23:43. | :23:48. | |
hailstones. Gradually moving northwards, the heavier bursts | :23:48. | :23:53. | |

the day wears on. Here is the summary for the rest of the week. | :25:02. | :25:08. | |
