Commonwealth Summit in Sri Lanka. That is all from the BBC News at | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
six. Judgement delayed for Portsmouth 's | :00:00. | :00:22. | |
Mike Hancock. From Iraqi to Newbury. | :00:23. | :00:30. | |
And join us live at the National motor Museum in Beauly for Children | :00:31. | :00:32. | |
in Need across the South. A council inquiry into the conduct | :00:33. | :00:50. | |
of Portsmouth Cabinet member and MP Mike Hancock has been put on hold | :00:51. | :00:54. | |
until after the outcome of a court case. The inquiry has already found | :00:55. | :01:00. | |
that Mr Hancock has a case to answer over allegations that he sexually | :01:01. | :01:02. | |
assaulted a vulnerable constituent but it's delayed deciding what | :01:03. | :01:05. | |
action to take until the High Court has ruled on the same claims being | :01:06. | :01:09. | |
brought in a civil case against the MP. | :01:10. | :01:21. | |
A subcommittee of three Portsmouth councillors had to grapple with | :01:22. | :01:26. | |
differing and expensive legal opinion. Watching the | :01:27. | :01:30. | |
deliberations, be vulnerable constituent who accused Mike Hancock | :01:31. | :01:39. | |
of sexual assault. Mr Hancock didn't attend. The conservative chair | :01:40. | :01:46. | |
wanted to press on and decide if Mr Hancock's alleged behaviour had | :01:47. | :01:50. | |
breached the council 's code of conduct. But the two Lib Dems voted | :01:51. | :02:00. | |
to wait. The reason the panel reached this decision was they were | :02:01. | :02:04. | |
concerned in the case was to proceed, there was a possibility of | :02:05. | :02:08. | |
the panel reaching an inconsistent decision. In September, an | :02:09. | :02:15. | |
independent report compiled for the council concluded that Mr Hancock | :02:16. | :02:21. | |
does have a case to answer. We should be making decisions about | :02:22. | :02:25. | |
this as quickly as possible. This alleged victim is having to deal | :02:26. | :02:29. | |
with this today, and dealing with another blow. The subcommittee was | :02:30. | :02:37. | |
told delaying the case could have serious repercussions, including the | :02:38. | :02:41. | |
possibility of a judicial review. The council also faces a huge risk | :02:42. | :02:45. | |
in terms of damage to its reputation, so I think those views | :02:46. | :02:50. | |
should have been taken into account. Hampshire police requested | :02:51. | :02:54. | |
a copy of the council 's independent report. The barrister says the | :02:55. | :03:02. | |
council should have considered its consideration. It was a big decision | :03:03. | :03:07. | |
for the committee to make. After today's meeting, a spokesman issued | :03:08. | :03:08. | |
a statement: Meanwhile, the complainant told me | :03:09. | :03:30. | |
the council 's decision to delay the healing `` the hearing was | :03:31. | :03:41. | |
disgraceful and disgusting. What's the cost of this to Portsmouth | :03:42. | :03:48. | |
taxpayers? It must be over ?50,000, especially if they have to defend a | :03:49. | :03:57. | |
judicial review. It is very political, this whole situation. You | :03:58. | :04:02. | |
have Conservative and Labour councillors complaining loudly about | :04:03. | :04:07. | |
the cost, but then it is them who wanted to have this enquiry into the | :04:08. | :04:16. | |
first place. It might not come out until September next year, when the | :04:17. | :04:20. | |
High Court could finally get to consider this. The only other fact | :04:21. | :04:24. | |
here is the police have asked to see this report three weeks ago. Why | :04:25. | :04:30. | |
does this leave Mike Hancock, politically? He is not a well man | :04:31. | :04:37. | |
after serious heart problems. He is no longer a Liberal Democrat in | :04:38. | :04:41. | |
Westminster but is locally. He faces a local election in May. | :04:42. | :04:49. | |
A registered sex offender is being hunted by police in Hampshire. | :04:50. | :04:54. | |
64`year`old Phillip Neville has failed to tell police where he is | :04:55. | :04:58. | |
living. He's last known to be staying in the Hook or Basingstoke | :04:59. | :05:02. | |
area but also has links to Bournemouth. Officers say they've | :05:03. | :05:04. | |
carried out extensive enquiries and now appealing to the public to help | :05:05. | :05:08. | |
locate him. One week after Typhoon Haiyan | :05:09. | :05:11. | |
devastated the eastern part of the Philippines, people from across the | :05:12. | :05:14. | |
South are still organising collections and raising funds for | :05:15. | :05:19. | |
those who lost everything. The Filipino community were collecting | :05:20. | :05:22. | |
relief supplies at the Warren Centre in Southampton today as part of a | :05:23. | :05:26. | |
bigger campaign in the region. The collection will be open until next | :05:27. | :05:31. | |
month. Now, you may think that the NHS buys | :05:32. | :05:34. | |
all its medicines from drug companies, but no, it doesn't. In | :05:35. | :05:38. | |
Portsmouth, an NHS "drugs factory" is making thousands of cancer | :05:39. | :05:40. | |
medicines and antibiotics for patients around the country. Its | :05:41. | :05:46. | |
location is a closely guarded secret, but our health correspondent | :05:47. | :05:49. | |
David Fenton was given exclusive access to see what goes on. | :05:50. | :05:58. | |
Here in the heart of Portsmouth, the NHS is making its own drugs. This | :05:59. | :06:04. | |
one is that a cancer patient, all done under strictly controlled | :06:05. | :06:12. | |
conditions. That air is filtered so virtually scrubbed clean and the | :06:13. | :06:18. | |
products are white and placed into a chamber and gassed with a product | :06:19. | :06:26. | |
called hydrogen peroxide. This is one of only if you NHS centres | :06:27. | :06:32. | |
licensed to make and sell drugs. Most of the items made him go to | :06:33. | :06:38. | |
local patients, but not all. We sell product all across the country to | :06:39. | :06:43. | |
other parts of the UK, even in Wales and to many other parts of the | :06:44. | :06:50. | |
region: Oxford, Southampton. Last year, those sales made ?2 million | :06:51. | :06:55. | |
for the local hospital. Not bad that a part of the NHS are very few | :06:56. | :07:01. | |
people have ever heard of. The Ministry of Defence is refusing | :07:02. | :07:05. | |
to give details about the extra ?800 million it's agreed to pay for the | :07:06. | :07:08. | |
Royal Navy's new Portsmouth`based aircraft carriers. It has also | :07:09. | :07:12. | |
declined to say how much public money will be spent, making more | :07:13. | :07:15. | |
than 1,000 Portsmouth shipyard workers redundant. The Ministry says | :07:16. | :07:19. | |
it would be "inappropriate" to give a breakdown of the extra costs | :07:20. | :07:22. | |
before new contracts are signed and that redundancy payments are a | :07:23. | :07:25. | |
confidential matter between them and BAE. | :07:26. | :07:27. | |
Motorists are being warned of long delays as part of the A34 will be | :07:28. | :07:31. | |
closed this weekend and next for maintenance repairs. The work is | :07:32. | :07:34. | |
taking place at a bridge near Beedon. Tonight, the southbound | :07:35. | :07:36. | |
carriageway will be shut between Didcot and the M4 until Monday | :07:37. | :07:41. | |
morning. There's a 70`mile detour for motorway traffic via the M40, | :07:42. | :07:54. | |
A404 and the M4. We are resurfacing and re`waterproofing that brief. We | :07:55. | :08:07. | |
will finish the southbound this weekend. The northbound has to still | :08:08. | :08:11. | |
be done and, weather permitting, we will be doing that next weekend. | :08:12. | :08:18. | |
The children of Iraq are finding an unusual source of support in | :08:19. | :08:21. | |
Berkshire. Years of war and violence in Iraq have created enormous | :08:22. | :08:23. | |
challenges in providing a stable, working education for the children | :08:24. | :08:26. | |
there. Now the Iraqi government are turning to the UK for help, in | :08:27. | :08:30. | |
particular to the ideas of one teacher who, for the last three | :08:31. | :08:33. | |
years, has been swapping his classroom in Newbury for one in | :08:34. | :08:36. | |
Baghdad. They might be teachers in Iraq, but | :08:37. | :08:42. | |
here, they are pupils in the UK to learn firm a man who is changing the | :08:43. | :08:47. | |
way in Iraqi children are taught. It is about the approaches successful | :08:48. | :08:52. | |
here to develop young people as leaders and work with their teachers | :08:53. | :08:57. | |
plan lessons. But then thinking about how that impacts on lessons in | :08:58. | :09:03. | |
maths and science. War and sectarian conflict destabilised education in | :09:04. | :09:08. | |
Iraq. Two years ago, Derek got a call from the British Council. As | :09:09. | :09:14. | |
the head of the sports College, his idea was to swap the classroom for | :09:15. | :09:22. | |
the playground. We started by two schools only, and now we have got 50 | :09:23. | :09:29. | |
schools following the same programme. We apply these things | :09:30. | :09:37. | |
with our children and adults and they did it very well. These | :09:38. | :09:44. | |
teachers will now return to Iraq, although, if they are not careful, | :09:45. | :09:49. | |
they might end up with experience of our health service, too. | :09:50. | :09:53. | |
The future of Bracknell Indoor Market is being discussed. The | :09:54. | :09:55. | |
council is consulting on three proposals. Last year, traders | :09:56. | :09:59. | |
expressed fears over the future of the site. Options include leaving | :10:00. | :10:02. | |
the market where it is, relocating it outside or closing it completely. | :10:03. | :10:11. | |
Tonight is the big night for Children in Need. All week, you've | :10:12. | :10:14. | |
been fundraising to improve the lives of thousands of children | :10:15. | :10:17. | |
across the South. Our extravaganza gets underway at Beaulieu Motor | :10:18. | :10:20. | |
Museum where we can join Tony Husband and our wonderful guest | :10:21. | :10:23. | |
presenter for the night, Samantha Bond. Are you looking forward to a | :10:24. | :10:35. | |
night of fun, then? Our wonderful crowd was so loud I missed the | :10:36. | :10:40. | |
question! Something about having a good time. I we going to have a good | :10:41. | :10:45. | |
time tonight? We certainly are. Children in need care. We are here | :10:46. | :10:49. | |
to celebrate the fantastic work Children in Need do and encourage | :10:50. | :10:55. | |
you to donate. Come and have a walk with me because we have a bit of a | :10:56. | :11:03. | |
James Bond theme going on. Wonderful display. 50 vehicles used in 50 | :11:04. | :11:10. | |
years of James Bond films. We are all set. You've done After Downton | :11:11. | :11:21. | |
Abbey and the James Bond films, tonight is surely the pinnacle of | :11:22. | :11:23. | |
your career, working alongside someone talented, suave, | :11:24. | :11:25. | |
sophisticated, mysterious. I'm talking Pudsey, of course! | :11:26. | :11:30. | |
Thrilled to be here. I've never done anything like this in my life! | :11:31. | :11:35. | |
You've done a few of these before, so we know what to expect: Chaos, | :11:36. | :11:43. | |
fun, fundraising. You will have a fabulous time. Everybody there has | :11:44. | :11:46. | |
got one name: To raise money for Children in Need. Absolutely. That's | :11:47. | :11:58. | |
the only aim we have all evening. We have got Caitlin and Jacob, who have | :11:59. | :12:04. | |
come from Dorset. We've been making bookmarks that go on the corner of | :12:05. | :12:08. | |
your page. They are all different sorts of animals. They go on the | :12:09. | :12:20. | |
corner of your page like that. How much have you raised? ?44. A | :12:21. | :12:36. | |
fantastic start! How do you? Five. I went round the Common on a bicycle. | :12:37. | :12:43. | |
That took me three miles. That's a long way! I raised ?430. ?436. | :12:44. | :13:07. | |
That's brilliant. Well done. We do all sorts of things. Gardening, | :13:08. | :13:15. | |
making Christmas cards. And some cakes? A tea party for Pudsey. ?166 | :13:16. | :13:24. | |
we've raised. I went to Winchester Young Carers, | :13:25. | :13:42. | |
which supports young people who have a caring role in their homes. I met | :13:43. | :13:44. | |
some very inspiring youngsters. I care for my brother, Liam, because | :13:45. | :14:03. | |
he's blind. I care for my dad because he has got epilepsy and my | :14:04. | :14:09. | |
sister who is partially deaf. I care for my mum. A lot of people don't | :14:10. | :14:16. | |
know their carer until they are told. I didn't know I was until I | :14:17. | :14:35. | |
was 12. It makes you think. The support they give is the most | :14:36. | :14:41. | |
amazing you can get. They made me stronger. One of you was saying you | :14:42. | :14:50. | |
suddenly feel sort of mature and you can give things back. If it wasn't | :14:51. | :15:00. | |
for funding from Children in Need, we wouldn't be able to pay for a | :15:01. | :15:05. | |
schools and support coordinator and identify the young people and | :15:06. | :15:13. | |
support them. They are blessed to have this place, to be safe, to be | :15:14. | :15:20. | |
together, to be able to share. I feel immensely humbled. Yes! Lovely | :15:21. | :15:34. | |
to see the Winchester Young carers there, and Sam very touched by what | :15:35. | :15:38. | |
she saw on her visit there. All this week, we have been | :15:39. | :15:42. | |
following DrumA, a group of autistic drummers who will perform here live | :15:43. | :15:50. | |
in a few minutes. Sarah Farmer is down on the stage with them. Let me | :15:51. | :16:02. | |
introduce you to the group. These 17 youngsters have been rehearsing | :16:03. | :16:06. | |
since April. They come from all over the south, and when the group first | :16:07. | :16:10. | |
formed, some had never played the drums or even been on stage. So to | :16:11. | :16:16. | |
be in front of this lovely audience is a pretty big deal. But each of | :16:17. | :16:23. | |
these youngsters has autism. For people on the autistic spectrum, | :16:24. | :16:28. | |
they may find it difficult to be in busy situations and sensitive to | :16:29. | :16:31. | |
loud noises and uncomfortable with people they don't know. And that is | :16:32. | :16:36. | |
what makes this challenge even bigger. They have raised hundreds of | :16:37. | :16:40. | |
pounds for Children in Need, and you, too, can donate tonight. The | :16:41. | :16:47. | |
details are on the screen now, and they have worked really hard for | :16:48. | :16:53. | |
every penny. The conductor has been in charge and has been guiding them | :16:54. | :16:58. | |
through rehearsals. Are they ready tonight? Oh, yes! These guys are | :16:59. | :17:05. | |
poised for the performance of a lifetime. But are you ready? | :17:06. | :20:02. | |
I understand this is also a fundraising activity. Thank you so | :20:03. | :20:16. | |
much. You are wonderful, guys! Amazing. Sensational performance. | :20:17. | :20:27. | |
The adrenaline is running high. Fantastic. You must have realised | :20:28. | :20:35. | |
that about 100 times, but how did it feel to be on stage tonight? It felt | :20:36. | :20:46. | |
epic! Most of them would love to do it all over again. Some people | :20:47. | :20:53. | |
absolutely bursting with pride. If you were moved or amazed, please | :20:54. | :20:59. | |
donate, say thank you by giving to BBC Children in Need. | :21:00. | :21:10. | |
You will be hearing about a lot more throughout the evening. My heart was | :21:11. | :21:20. | |
in my mouth. I just thought they did so well! They were truly great. Well | :21:21. | :21:30. | |
done. A lot of other people are fundraising. Who says dentists don't | :21:31. | :21:47. | |
rock? These dentists dressed as punks. They raised hundreds of | :21:48. | :21:52. | |
pounds guessing how many safety pins they were wearing. They even sold | :21:53. | :21:58. | |
cakes to patients... As long as they brushed afterwards. Spots with the | :21:59. | :22:05. | |
world of the day here. Now, this is what you call customer feedback. | :22:06. | :22:10. | |
Managers at Morrisons put themselves in the firing line. Can't think why | :22:11. | :22:14. | |
this was so popular with staff at the store. These managers are doing | :22:15. | :22:21. | |
their bit, hoping to raise ?1000. I will be in trouble. There was a | :22:22. | :22:28. | |
hairy moment for Marshall as he had his Afro shaved off. Children at | :22:29. | :22:35. | |
this primary school dressed up as superheroes, and there was a | :22:36. | :22:40. | |
superhero effort from sailors at HMS Sultan. They were on the pull. | :22:41. | :22:47. | |
Where's Wally? In north Dorset, of course! This group walking to work | :22:48. | :22:51. | |
wearing the same outfit. What are the chances of that? These two | :22:52. | :22:58. | |
entertained people shopping in Romsey. It's the third year they've | :22:59. | :23:02. | |
done it, and today, they raised just under ?600. Fabulous raise a | :23:03. | :23:08. | |
fundraising! Keep it going. The weather has been kind to us | :23:09. | :23:31. | |
today. If a little chilly. We had clear skies overhead today and it's | :23:32. | :23:37. | |
been pretty chilly. We did eventually see clouds spilling in | :23:38. | :23:40. | |
from the north`west, but in the most part, it has been a pretty fine day. | :23:41. | :23:46. | |
We got clear skies overhead that night as well, so it's going to be a | :23:47. | :23:51. | |
chilly one. We are expecting a widespread frost, and stubborn fog | :23:52. | :23:56. | |
patches as well to content with. It looks like temperatures could get | :23:57. | :24:03. | |
down to freezing in our and cities. A very cold night to come. Very | :24:04. | :24:08. | |
chilly start of the day as well. Those temperatures still hovering | :24:09. | :24:13. | |
around that freezing mark first thing. Fog around as well. That | :24:14. | :24:19. | |
could struggle to lift. Dense fog could well linger late into the | :24:20. | :24:24. | |
morning. Elsewhere, good bright and sunny spells. We will see the cloud | :24:25. | :24:28. | |
spilling from the north`west as the day goes on, so tomorrow's | :24:29. | :24:33. | |
temperatures: Nine or 10 degrees. But generally a fine day. Tomorrow | :24:34. | :24:39. | |
night, we stick with the cloud, and it will be quieter and milder than | :24:40. | :24:45. | |
tonight. Temperatures five or six degrees above freezing, so feeling | :24:46. | :24:49. | |
warmer. But it looks like we have those cloudy conditions to take us | :24:50. | :24:55. | |
into Sunday. Generally, quite a cloudy affair and maybe a little bit | :24:56. | :25:00. | |
of dampness. On Monday, we will see wet conditions. Maybe a touch on the | :25:01. | :25:05. | |
breezy side, but outbreaks of patchy rain coming and going. Monday is the | :25:06. | :25:12. | |
damp day, but by Tuesday, it shows up but it will feel chilly for | :25:13. | :25:13. | |
Tuesday and Wednesday. What a time to forget your driver 's | :25:14. | :25:39. | |
license! Tell us about the James Bond films you're in. The spy that | :25:40. | :25:49. | |
loved me. Diamonds are forever. You only live twice. Three of them. Not | :25:50. | :26:00. | |
bad. Superb films, super tines. And that wonderful voice. Two Bond girls | :26:01. | :26:17. | |
together. Which film are you in? On Her Majesty 's Secret Service, and | :26:18. | :26:21. | |
it's great to be part of the new club with the Queen is our newest | :26:22. | :26:25. | |
member. And thank you for being here this evening. It's been wonderful. | :26:26. | :26:39. | |
We started well. Throughout the evening, Terry Wogan will be hosting | :26:40. | :26:44. | |
the main national show, and we will be here. We are popping up | :26:45. | :26:50. | |
throughout the evening in the main Children in Need show at | :26:51. | :27:03. | |
approximately 7:50, 8:50 and 9:15. Or those details and the number you | :27:04. | :27:07. | |
can get online and donate as well. Give what you can. We are going to | :27:08. | :27:12. | |
leave you with a taste of DrummerA's performance. | :27:13. | :27:17. |
