Hello, I'm Sally Taylor. Welcome to South Today. | :00:06. | :00:16. | |
In tonight's programme: The parents coming to terms with | :00:16. | :00:19. | |
their toddler's death as a coroner rules she received inadequate care | :00:19. | :00:21. | |
from a Portsmouth hospital. We cannot change our fate so... What | :00:21. | :00:28. | |
will you remember of her? Her smile. Helping the past become the future, | :00:28. | :00:32. | |
the Heritage sites at risk of being lost on the Isle of Wight. | :00:32. | :00:35. | |
Would you invest in a property close to a field that floods? The | :00:35. | :00:39. | |
developers accused of making a fast buck. | :00:39. | :00:41. | |
And get ready for the charge, as 100 colourful rhino sculptures go | :00:41. | :00:44. | |
on display ahead of a charity auction. It would be very difficult | :00:44. | :00:52. | |
to choose a favourite but I think the back garden would be just the | :00:52. | :01:12. | |
right place for it. She died on Christmas Day last year, after | :01:12. | :01:14. | |
going into septic shock. Today Anabelle Shepherd's parents said | :01:14. | :01:17. | |
they believe she could have been saved, if doctors had acted more | :01:17. | :01:20. | |
quickly. The toddler was admitted to the Queen Alexandra Hospital in | :01:20. | :01:23. | |
Portsmouth two days before she died and today a coroner ruled that her | :01:23. | :01:26. | |
treatment had not given adequate recognition to Anabelle's | :01:26. | :01:27. | |
vulnerability, following a transplant. Nikki Mitchell reports. | :01:27. | :01:33. | |
This photograph was taken during Annabel's recovery from a bone | :01:33. | :01:37. | |
marrow transplant she had had to treat a rare genetic condition. Her | :01:37. | :01:41. | |
parents knew that while the transplant held out hope of a near— | :01:41. | :01:45. | |
normal life, Annabel would struggle to fight off infections. It was | :01:45. | :01:52. | |
heartbreaking. Yes, it is, but she thought through so much to get let | :01:52. | :01:56. | |
down at the last hurdle. The inquest heard how staff here did | :01:57. | :02:02. | |
not take her blood tests until well are —— well over 24 hours after she | :02:02. | :02:07. | |
was admitted here. Also, because her immune system had been | :02:07. | :02:11. | |
suppressed following her transplant, she should have been put on an | :02:11. | :02:18. | |
antibiotic drip immediately. Today the coroner determined that | :02:18. | :02:21. | |
her clinical vulnerability had not been adequately recognised. I think | :02:21. | :02:26. | |
there were failings, there was an underestimation in her condition | :02:26. | :02:33. | |
and a lack of urgency. I think, I think that treatment should have | :02:33. | :02:36. | |
been a lot more intensive and it should have started sooner. In a | :02:36. | :02:41. | |
statement the Portsmouth Hospitals NHS Trust extended its thin sere | :02:41. | :02:46. | |
and heartfelt condolences to the family. Bit fed it had carried out | :02:46. | :02:52. | |
a detailed investigation into the care if and changes made. It will | :02:52. | :02:56. | |
not happen to another child. But she had gone into day the treatment | :02:56. | :02:59. | |
and the way she would have been looked after would have been | :02:59. | :03:03. | |
completely different to how she was looked after and treated. A all of | :03:03. | :03:09. | |
our issues we have raised they have address them and change their | :03:09. | :03:13. | |
protocol so that is really what we wanted. That is what we wanted from | :03:13. | :03:16. | |
this more than anything else because we cannot change our fate. | :03:16. | :03:22. | |
What will you remember of her? Her smile! Memories of Annabel. The | :03:22. | :03:46. | |
director of the collapsed Eco Island company on the Isle of Wight | :03:46. | :03:50. | |
was found hanging from a tree in his garden, an inquest heard today. | :03:50. | :03:53. | |
David Green's death came several days after the company went into | :03:53. | :03:55. | |
voluntary liquidation. Prior to his death Mr Green had been arrested on | :03:55. | :03:59. | |
suspicion of fraud, after the Isle of Wight council said more than | :03:59. | :04:01. | |
£100,000 of government funding for the Eco Island project was | :04:01. | :04:03. | |
unaccounted for. Consumers are probably starting to | :04:03. | :04:06. | |
hope for a mild winter because some energy bills are going up by more | :04:06. | :04:09. | |
than three times the rate of inflation. | :04:09. | :04:11. | |
Members of the RMT union working for First Great Western are being | :04:11. | :04:14. | |
asked if they want to strike over a dispute with management. The ballot | :04:14. | :04:16. | |
has been called a week after the company its —— secured an extension | :04:16. | :04:18. | |
to its franchise. Unions say drivers, guards and station staff | :04:18. | :04:20. | |
are being mistreated and bullied. First Great Western say the | :04:20. | :04:22. | |
discussions are ongoing with the union he would has accused of | :04:22. | :04:34. | |
playing political games. A campaign is underway in Wimborne | :04:34. | :04:37. | |
to bring community banking back to the town. The Dorset town had its | :04:37. | :04:41. | |
own bank in the 19th century and now there's an appetite to bring | :04:41. | :04:44. | |
back local lending. It would to help businesses that can't get the | :04:44. | :04:47. | |
money they need from the big high street banks. The options being | :04:47. | :04:50. | |
looked at include a new bank or a credit union. Our business | :04:50. | :04:52. | |
correspondent, Alastair Fee, reports. | :04:52. | :04:53. | |
For they are more than 300 businesses here in Wimborne and the | :04:53. | :04:56. | |
Dorset market town is served by six High Street banks. A growing sense | :04:56. | :04:58. | |
of dissatisfaction as strong a movement that wants something else. | :04:58. | :05:10. | |
This is a coffee shop Ref pollution. —— revolution. Sipping capuccinos, | :05:10. | :05:17. | |
the group are mostly retired, share a love of this town and a | :05:17. | :05:19. | |
determination to improve it's fortunes. History has provided | :05:19. | :05:22. | |
inspiration. Wimborne had its own bank, they have the original notes | :05:22. | :05:25. | |
to prove it. So why not another? We like the idea of supplying bank | :05:25. | :05:27. | |
accounts and facilities for the businesses that are better cost. We | :05:27. | :05:30. | |
should be a fish and so there is a profit but it will be ploughed back. | :05:30. | :05:33. | |
That is the difference between a community bank and a national bank | :05:34. | :05:38. | |
that pretends to be a community bank. | :05:38. | :05:41. | |
In 1840 the Bank of Wimborne when asked, how can you guarantee you | :05:41. | :05:44. | |
will not do the same? More prudent lending and knowing our customer | :05:44. | :05:50. | |
better. The businesses differ but the stories are the same. The shop | :05:50. | :05:54. | |
started trading a year ago and they want financial support from people | :05:54. | :05:59. | |
they can trust. Charges will be a concern in the future as because we | :05:59. | :06:05. | |
are in your business we were entitled to some free banking and | :06:05. | :06:09. | |
after our second year it will be a big priority for us. To be able to | :06:09. | :06:14. | |
pop along a have a chat without it being biased in their favour. This | :06:15. | :06:25. | |
is the flavour of our times. The ingredients in Wimborne can be | :06:25. | :06:28. | |
found in any small town. People are fed up with the old receipe and now | :06:28. | :06:31. | |
want to make something different, something they have a hand in. | :06:31. | :06:34. | |
It is a question of mixing it all together and there are people who | :06:34. | :06:37. | |
want to work for the betterment of the community. As you get older you | :06:37. | :06:39. | |
want to put something back. In Wimborne we have a lot of retired | :06:40. | :06:42. | |
people who understand business and we are getting a cell for — what we | :06:42. | :06:46. | |
are getting help from Vince Cable's department and our local MP. | :06:46. | :06:49. | |
Support is gathering momentum. The next step is to set up a community | :06:49. | :06:53. | |
interest company. Getting hold of the finance and developing that | :06:53. | :06:57. | |
will be something we have to do. The people involved in the group | :06:57. | :07:01. | |
are all retired and they are all comfortably off... A you will need | :07:01. | :07:05. | |
millions to set up a bank. No, you will not need millions. It is a | :07:05. | :07:09. | |
question of lending to local people and getting a return on it and | :07:09. | :07:12. | |
putting the money back into the community. It does not need to be | :07:12. | :07:15. | |
complicated. It might sound simple. But business | :07:15. | :07:18. | |
lending needs experience. Others in Dorset have tried to help and | :07:18. | :07:22. | |
failed. We did get our fingers burnt. We had a few that when | :07:22. | :07:28. | |
really badly wrong and it did... It caused us to stop and rethink what | :07:28. | :07:32. | |
we were doing. A how much money did you lose when you were trying to | :07:32. | :07:38. | |
lend to new businesses? It probably was in the thousands. | :07:38. | :07:41. | |
For more than five years businesses have found it tough to access money | :07:41. | :07:45. | |
The receipe to Hazel's success is her background in catering. The | :07:45. | :07:49. | |
ambitions of this town might sound half baked. It could be something | :07:49. | :07:57. | |
the whole town can share. We want to hear from you about what | :07:57. | :08:03. | |
do you think about local high streets and local lending, is it a | :08:03. | :08:11. | |
good idea? Consumers are starting to hope for | :08:11. | :08:14. | |
a milder winter because energy bills are going up by three times | :08:14. | :08:19. | |
the rate of inflation. SSE became the first of the Big Six to | :08:19. | :08:26. | |
announce price increases. From mid— November, customers in the south | :08:26. | :08:29. | |
will see rises of almost 10% for gas and electricity prices. | :08:29. | :08:31. | |
Scottish customers will face a smaller increase of 7%. | :08:31. | :08:37. | |
The average dual fuel bill will go up to £1,200 a year. The company | :08:38. | :08:41. | |
says it's profit margins are fair, currently about 4%. That translated | :08:41. | :08:43. | |
into profits last year of £1.4 billion. The company said the price | :08:44. | :08:51. | |
rise is justified. We buy energy that we will use in a global market | :08:51. | :08:55. | |
and that has gone up 4% compared to last year. We also see an increase | :08:55. | :08:59. | |
in the amount and cost it takes to get the energy to our homes. That | :08:59. | :09:04. | |
has gone up 10%. There are government schemes that everybody | :09:04. | :09:07. | |
pays to in their bill which makes up about 10% of the bill and that | :09:07. | :09:13. | |
is going up to 13%. A number of community schemes have been set up | :09:13. | :09:16. | |
in the past to help those most affected by price rises, including | :09:16. | :09:22. | |
two in Hampshire. Even that support is not guaranteed this year. Last | :09:22. | :09:28. | |
year we helped 678 people through various different winter campaigns | :09:28. | :09:32. | |
that were supported by funding from the Department of Health which this | :09:32. | :09:36. | |
year unfortunately is not available. Those people came to us for money | :09:36. | :09:44. | |
to pay their fuel bills and food because sometimes they have to make | :09:44. | :09:47. | |
a choice between feeding their families and switching on their | :09:47. | :09:56. | |
heating. Her Royal Highness, The Princess Royal was in Southampton | :09:56. | :09:59. | |
today to name the latest Royal research ship. RRS Discovery, the | :09:59. | :10:02. | |
fourth vessel to bear the name, will travel to some of the least | :10:02. | :10:05. | |
hospitable parts of the planet. 28 scientists and technicians on board | :10:05. | :10:07. | |
will conduct important research, including the role of the oceans in | :10:08. | :10:10. | |
climate change. Stay with us because still to come: | :10:10. | :10:14. | |
A first class job from an illustrator who has set —— whose | :10:14. | :10:19. | |
set of dinosaur stamps are out today. | :10:19. | :10:27. | |
The wrecking the Solent of the Royal Navy's first HMS Invincible | :10:27. | :10:34. | |
is listed among the top 10 most at risk heritage sites in the country. | :10:34. | :10:39. | |
Per head of population the Isle of Wight's heritage is more at risk | :10:39. | :10:50. | |
than anywhere else in the south— east. | :10:50. | :10:52. | |
From the elegant Northwood House to the brutal Bouldnor Battery. There | :10:52. | :10:55. | |
are 22 sites on the island on the at risk register. And English | :10:55. | :10:57. | |
Heritage warns the Hammerhead Crane remains in danger of falling into | :10:57. | :11:00. | |
the River Medina. The conservation watchdog has urged the Isle of | :11:00. | :11:03. | |
Wight Council to put heritage higher on its agenda, as the | :11:03. | :11:06. | |
council does have powers to put pressure on the owners of | :11:06. | :11:10. | |
vulnerable buildings. To use these powers is extremely time—consuming. | :11:10. | :11:14. | |
Cuts have been deep here as in many other places. We recognise that it | :11:14. | :11:19. | |
is difficult but nonetheless with resolve and clear—sighted and if we | :11:19. | :11:23. | |
believe that more could be done. The council says it will be working | :11:23. | :11:26. | |
where and when it can to help preserve local heritage. Previous | :11:26. | :11:30. | |
administrations have not really grasped the value and the need to | :11:30. | :11:35. | |
protect our heritage sites. I regret to say that some of those on | :11:35. | :11:40. | |
the list are now probably beyond protection but we will do our best | :11:40. | :11:43. | |
for them. As for the Hammerhead Crane, the | :11:43. | :11:46. | |
council says it's close to serving an urgent works notice. The | :11:46. | :11:49. | |
developer of Medina Yard says the current site owners are passionate | :11:49. | :11:51. | |
about securing the long—term regeneration of the yard and the | :11:51. | :11:55. | |
future of the crane will form a key aspect in the masterplan. | :11:55. | :11:59. | |
Although not on at the at risk register, English Heritage is also | :11:59. | :12:02. | |
worried about the future of the Frank James Memorial Hospital. A | :12:02. | :12:08. | |
friends group has been formed for the derelict building. It is the | :12:08. | :12:13. | |
sort of place that lifts the spirits. It is attractive, the | :12:14. | :12:18. | |
scale of it, the filler would, the size and shape and the colours and | :12:18. | :12:21. | |
the texture and everything about it. It is the sort of building that | :12:21. | :12:26. | |
people love and enjoyed. The island does have a rich history. The | :12:26. | :12:34. | |
question is, how much of its past has a viable future? | :12:34. | :12:44. | |
A field on a flood plain beside the river Arun in West Sussex is at the | :12:44. | :12:47. | |
centre of a row between villagers and a developer. The eight acre | :12:47. | :12:50. | |
site in Pulborough has been divided into small plots which are being | :12:50. | :12:53. | |
auctioned off on Monday. Residents fear people could buy plots unaware | :12:53. | :12:56. | |
of planning problems there, or they may want to put up sheds or summer | :12:56. | :12:59. | |
houses which could be washed away in winter floods. Sean Killick | :12:59. | :13:01. | |
reports. It is pastureland, Sandwich between | :13:01. | :13:07. | |
the river Arun and the flood defence embankment. Last year this | :13:07. | :13:11. | |
field was bought for £35,000 by a developer who residents say | :13:11. | :13:14. | |
discussed the idea of building there. He has now divided it into | :13:15. | :13:20. | |
54 plods and he is auctioning it off. Residents oppose the idea. Do | :13:20. | :13:25. | |
you just know one debut spoiled? It cannot be built on because of the | :13:25. | :13:30. | |
floods. The floods come up at about 4 ft or more at least. It sweeps | :13:30. | :13:35. | |
away anything that is there so there is absolutely no point in | :13:35. | :13:40. | |
trying to build it. It is national parkland so you cannot do anything | :13:40. | :13:45. | |
willy—nilly whatever. I met a man who has lived on the opposite of | :13:45. | :13:48. | |
this —— opposite side of the river for 12 years and taken many | :13:49. | :13:53. | |
pictures of the flooded field. It floods badly and it is fast moving | :13:53. | :13:57. | |
water. Anyone who put anything on that, if they expected to be there | :13:57. | :14:02. | |
week later, it will not be there. They will have to go and find it in | :14:02. | :14:06. | |
Littlehampton harbour. The land is being sold by the company that this | :14:06. | :14:15. | |
man is a director of. He said he did not want to do an interview but | :14:15. | :14:20. | |
said he had always intended to section it off and sell it for a | :14:20. | :14:24. | |
profit. He added that he has not advertised any of the plots as | :14:24. | :14:27. | |
having planning permission and if anyone wants to take a chance on it | :14:27. | :14:32. | |
as he did then it is up to then. Village residents had to buy the | :14:32. | :14:36. | |
field themselves for community use. The auction takes place on Monday. | :14:36. | :14:42. | |
You might be interested to know that it was the campaigners that | :14:42. | :14:45. | |
told us about that story so if you have a story thing we should go | :14:45. | :14:50. | |
about then let us know. New figures show that councils in | :14:50. | :14:53. | |
the south have had to pay out hundreds of thousands of pounds in | :14:53. | :14:57. | |
the last year to people affected by pot holes in roads. Research | :14:57. | :15:01. | |
revealed that West Sussex County Council spent nearly £200,000 | :15:01. | :15:07. | |
settling 450 claims. Surrey and Hampshire were not far behind. | :15:07. | :15:10. | |
Across the country there was a surge in claims compared to the | :15:10. | :15:16. | |
previous year. Plans to bring back a festival to | :15:16. | :15:21. | |
Guildford are up to debate this evening. Guildford Borough Council | :15:22. | :15:24. | |
has been asked to back the idea even though it was a creditor with | :15:24. | :15:29. | |
unpaid bills of more than £60,000 when the event folded in 2012. | :15:29. | :15:39. | |
This is the 2010 event, we had great people on the bill. | :15:39. | :15:44. | |
This man can still remember the good times. For more than 20 years | :15:44. | :15:49. | |
he ran the festival and after poor weather and poor ticket sales | :15:49. | :15:53. | |
brought it down in 2012 and an alternative event was staged this | :15:53. | :15:57. | |
year, he said the time is right for the brand to make a comeback. It is | :15:57. | :16:04. | |
a community event. Over 2000 people work on it and they are all from | :16:04. | :16:08. | |
Guildford. It is easy to see why a petition on the council website has | :16:08. | :16:12. | |
put the idea back on the offender — — agenda. I would like to see it | :16:12. | :16:18. | |
back. I do like the idea of the tender think it is great for the | :16:18. | :16:23. | |
city. We know quite a lot of the artist's. And it is local! Are when | :16:23. | :16:27. | |
it comes to the idea of allowing just one event in this park next | :16:27. | :16:31. | |
year then the organisers are pushing at an open door. Whether | :16:31. | :16:36. | |
the council keen to keep the side to open to the general public for | :16:36. | :16:40. | |
as much as the year as possible. We have had a number of expressions of | :16:40. | :16:44. | |
interest but no one has made a formal application so we are in a | :16:44. | :16:48. | |
difficult situation because we are debating something we do not have | :16:48. | :16:51. | |
in our possession. Tonight the door is likely to be kept open for the | :16:51. | :16:59. | |
return but others may not be ready to bake take the stage just yet. | :16:59. | :17:12. | |

can ring. Deadline for entries is October 16th. | :18:49. | :19:02. | |
We will see if we can pick someone absolutely wonderful, I am sure we | :19:02. | :19:07. | |
can! When it comes to dinosaurs, the | :19:07. | :19:10. | |
Isle of Wight has got it licked, literally. The Royal Mail today | :19:10. | :19:13. | |
issued a new set of ten dinosaur stamps, all of them drawn by | :19:13. | :19:16. | |
illustrator John Sibbeck who lives in Shanklin. What's more, many of | :19:16. | :19:19. | |
the species featured have been found in the island's fossil record. | :19:19. | :19:24. | |
A little earlier John came into the studio and I put it too him that he | :19:24. | :19:29. | |
must be very proud to have his work featured in this way. | :19:29. | :19:33. | |
You must be very proud because this is a fantastic set of stamps. Thank | :19:33. | :19:38. | |
you very much. It has been a long time coming. It is quite a long | :19:38. | :19:43. | |
process and you have to do a lot of preparatory work before you do the | :19:43. | :19:48. | |
colour paintings. It is great to see them out. It is also lovely | :19:48. | :19:52. | |
that there is a strong connection with the Isle of Wight. 50% of the | :19:52. | :20:00. | |
said our island animals. They are still finding dinosaur bones this | :20:00. | :20:05. | |
week and recently I think they found one that was new. Are | :20:05. | :20:10. | |
dinosaurs a passion for you? They are big and exotic so how can you | :20:10. | :20:19. | |
not? They are weird and massive large and strange animals. You | :20:20. | :20:24. | |
really want to try and make them realistic. When you look at them | :20:24. | :20:29. | |
here behind us, I love the fact that the actual dinosaur spills out | :20:29. | :20:33. | |
of the stamp, it is not contain, is it? That is an intention. | :20:34. | :20:38. | |
Definitely. Right from the beginning they wanted to break the | :20:38. | :20:44. | |
frame, to give a sort of a 3D effect. There was a lot of to—ing | :20:44. | :20:48. | |
and fro—ing to get the layout right and making sure that the right bits | :20:48. | :20:52. | |
were going out and a lot of discussion about it. How did you | :20:52. | :20:56. | |
choose the colours? We do not know the colour of dinosaurs. It would | :20:56. | :21:01. | |
be easier if they were black and white. Absolutely, if only! Mainly | :21:01. | :21:07. | |
you look at modern animals. You look at a zebra or a giraffe, | :21:07. | :21:12. | |
animals that have got distinct patterns and why have they got | :21:12. | :21:19. | |
patterns? Are they planted as? Is it for camouflage? The air is an | :21:19. | :21:26. | |
awful lot they goes into this —— there is an awful lot that goes | :21:27. | :21:30. | |
into this. How did they pick you to do the stamps? Is there a process? | :21:30. | :21:35. | |
They will receive an things I had done before in books and on | :21:35. | :21:40. | |
television. You picture amongst other illustrators and I had to | :21:40. | :21:47. | |
samples to—do. Originally they were going to put backgrounds on them | :21:47. | :21:51. | |
and we decided that they were not graphic enough. They are hand—drawn, | :21:51. | :21:59. | |
aren't they? Not computer—generated. Yet they are all done with pen and | :21:59. | :22:02. | |
pencil and sweat! How he bought telly yet? Not yet. Tomorrow is | :22:02. | :22:10. | |
Another Day! It is lovely to meet you. | :22:10. | :22:12. | |
Then those stamps are beautiful. I cannot believe they are just | :22:12. | :22:17. | |
hand—drawn. Apparently that is what the Post | :22:17. | :22:20. | |
Office wanted, they did not want them computer—generated. | :22:20. | :22:24. | |
Let us move on foul weather. It was really cold today. | :22:24. | :22:28. | |
Yes, I had to test myself this morning, before I put the hat and | :22:28. | :22:33. | |
coat and scarf on I had to step outside of the door and check that | :22:33. | :22:36. | |
I was right. This early sunrise taken from | :22:36. | :22:39. | |
Seaview on the Isle of Wight was taken by Raymond Slack. | :22:39. | :22:41. | |
Roy Venkatesh captured the Millennium footbridge under blue | :22:41. | :22:44. | |
skies which links Crown Heights to Festival Place in Basingstoke. | :22:44. | :22:47. | |
And Brian Case took this photo of the cows by the river Frome in | :22:47. | :22:51. | |
Wareham. The northerly wind took the edge of | :22:51. | :22:56. | |
the temperatures today. We saw a high of 30 degrees and normally at | :22:56. | :23:00. | |
this time of year it is 16 degrees. Rain is possible in the second half | :23:00. | :23:04. | |
of the night. The clear skies will stay clear in the West before the | :23:05. | :23:08. | |
showers and rain pushing from the North Sea. They showers could be | :23:08. | :23:12. | |
heavy in a few places but some areas stay dry. Temperatures are | :23:12. | :23:18. | |
not as low as they were last night. It is gradually warming up for the | :23:18. | :23:22. | |
weekend but still pretty cold tomorrow. We will have a brief dry. | :23:22. | :23:26. | |
Tomorrow morning with some sunshine before the cloud increases in the | :23:27. | :23:30. | |
afternoon and the rain will edge its way in. More so in the south | :23:30. | :23:36. | |
and east, with a high of 13 or 14 degrees, still a few degrees below | :23:36. | :23:40. | |
the seasonal average. There is a raw north—easterly wind that will | :23:40. | :23:43. | |
take the edge of temperatures out in the open. Further rain tonight. | :23:43. | :23:49. | |
It could be heavy in places. It moves in from the south—east. Prior | :23:49. | :23:54. | |
period as well before the rain engulfed us most of the South | :23:54. | :23:57. | |
tomorrow night and temperatures fall to 11 degrees. Gradually | :23:57. | :24:02. | |
warming up through the evening with the crowd —— we have the clout and | :24:02. | :24:08. | |
the rain. A wet start to the weekend. This is a wet front | :24:08. | :24:13. | |
pushing him from the east. It is due to low pressure. The wind is | :24:13. | :24:17. | |
brisk but gradually easing. The ruined —— the wind will leave and | :24:17. | :24:21. | |
we will have rain about in the weekend. The wind will his later on | :24:21. | :24:26. | |
Saturday but it stays cold. Temperatures a few degrees below | :24:26. | :24:30. | |
the seasonal average. In the wind it will feel quite cold out in the | :24:30. | :24:35. | |
open. A windy day tomorrow. There will be a brief, bright. In the | :24:35. | :24:42. | |
morning. The rain could be heavy on Saturday and further showers to | :24:42. | :24:45. | |
follow on Sunday with more rain possible on Monday. We had | :24:45. | :24:50. | |
dinosaurs a few minutes ago and next it's rhinos! Not the real | :24:50. | :24:54. | |
thing but artistic sculptures. You may remember we had them in the | :24:54. | :24:57. | |
studio back in May just before they went on display across Southampton. | :24:57. | :25:00. | |
The Go Rhino trail proved very popular attracting an estimated | :25:00. | :25:03. | |
quarter of a million people as part of celebrations for the 40th | :25:03. | :25:06. | |
anniversary of Marwell Wildlife. Now all 97 rhinos are together in | :25:06. | :25:09. | |
public for the first time before they are auctioned off for charity. | :25:09. | :25:12. | |
I popped along to Marwell to meet them. | :25:12. | :25:29. | |
It is the first time these and 90 rhinos have actually been brought | :25:29. | :25:36. | |
together in one place here at Marwell. 37 of them, mainly the big | :25:36. | :25:42. | |
ones, are up for auction on 30th October. The collective noun of | :25:43. | :25:46. | |
four rhinos is a crash but I think it is more of a kaleidoscope here. | :25:46. | :25:54. | |
It has been a phenomenal success. We have been completely overwhelmed | :25:54. | :25:57. | |
by the level of response to the trial and to the rhinos themselves. | :25:57. | :26:03. | |
It has been overwhelming. Wednesday 3rd November is the big auction and | :26:03. | :26:07. | |
you are raising money for charity. What I your hopes? We hope each of | :26:07. | :26:12. | |
them go for over £2,000 and hopefully a lot more for some of | :26:12. | :26:16. | |
them. Do you have a favourite? I could not possibly say! From the | :26:16. | :26:23. | |
moment the beasts hit the streets of Southampton, around a quarter of | :26:23. | :26:28. | |
a million people followed the rhino trail. Now they have a chance to | :26:28. | :26:33. | |
own a piece of the art. It would be very difficult to choose a | :26:33. | :26:37. | |
favourite but, yes, I think the back garden would be just the right | :26:37. | :26:41. | |
place for it! This is the poster boy who started it all off. All the | :26:41. | :26:46. | |
money in the world. For one of these? Yes. Be honest, can you | :26:46. | :26:51. | |
imagine having one stuck outside your house? This is the Planets | :26:51. | :26:58. | |
Rhino, the one we had in the studio. It will go for a lot of money | :26:58. | :27:03. | |
because I painted this little bit just here. The auction is going to | :27:03. | :27:11. | |
raise money for three charities. They have already got from bit thin | :27:11. | :27:15. | |
that Les SpaceX, these guys are going to be cheaper and easier to | :27:15. | :27:23. | |
maintain than those guys over there. Don't they look fantastic! | :27:23. | :27:27. | |
That one is not going up for auction. | :27:27. | :27:30. | |
A you can only see them at Marwell now from today and until Monday and | :27:30. | :27:37. | |
then that is it. They are for auction and you have got to | :27:37. | :27:42. | |
register. It would be great to have one. | :27:42. | :27:45. | |
Thank you for watching. Good night. | :27:45. | :27:46. |
