BBC Hello, I'm Sally Taylor. Welcome to | :00:00. | :00:16. | |
South Today. In tonight's programme: Seven years in jail for the | :00:17. | :00:18. | |
fraudster who conned millionsof pounds out of investors to fund his | :00:19. | :00:21. | |
lavish lifestyle. `he is a despicable man, I do not | :00:22. | :00:25. | |
know how he can walk the earth. I wish there was a punishment that | :00:26. | :00:29. | |
could suit him. Two cyclists die in Berkshire after | :00:30. | :00:33. | |
being hit by a car involved in a police incident. | :00:34. | :00:35. | |
The ongoing battle to stop yet more flooding with further severe weather | :00:36. | :00:38. | |
warnings for the South. Saved for the nation and on display | :00:39. | :00:42. | |
to the public ` the ring which was stopped from heading across the | :00:43. | :00:48. | |
Atlantic. Charming, understated but it had a beauty all of its own. I am | :00:49. | :01:07. | |
glad we never lost it. He pretended to be a trading genius | :01:08. | :01:11. | |
capable of making millions of pounds on behalf of investors, but tonight | :01:12. | :01:14. | |
Benjamin Wilson is starting a seven`year jail term. He ran a | :01:15. | :01:17. | |
company that took in nearly ?22 million. When he was shut down, he | :01:18. | :01:24. | |
owed people around ?17.5 million. It's estimated that only just over | :01:25. | :01:30. | |
?5 million will ever be recovered. It was an elaborate scam. He used | :01:31. | :01:34. | |
people's life savings to fund an extravagant lifestyle. After the | :01:35. | :01:37. | |
authorities caught up with him, he pleaded guilty to fraud, forgery and | :01:38. | :01:40. | |
running an unauthorised collective investment scheme. Here's our | :01:41. | :01:42. | |
business correspondent, Alastair Fee. | :01:43. | :01:55. | |
Arriving at Southwark Crown Court, the man who defrauded hundreds of | :01:56. | :02:01. | |
people out of millions of pounds. 35`year`old Ben Wilson, described by | :02:02. | :02:04. | |
the Financial Conduct Authority as charismatic, charming, manipulative | :02:05. | :02:11. | |
and dishonest. 300 people put money in, none wanted to be identified. | :02:12. | :02:18. | |
This woman lost ?125,000. What's happened is a web of lies, all the | :02:19. | :02:23. | |
way through. It has left us without our retirement pot, shall we say. It | :02:24. | :02:27. | |
means my husband still has to carry on working longer and I do not | :02:28. | :02:33. | |
really know how we will call. We will have a very bad retirement when | :02:34. | :02:38. | |
they planned have a good retirement. The prosecution was brought forward | :02:39. | :02:42. | |
after lifting the lid on this scam in 2010. It has been operating in | :02:43. | :02:48. | |
Dorset since 2003. Ben Wilson was a persuasive character, people were | :02:49. | :02:54. | |
taken in by them. They believed that what he was telling him was a good | :02:55. | :02:57. | |
thing and they thought they were making an investment that is correct | :02:58. | :03:00. | |
for them and their family. The problem is with all of these things | :03:01. | :03:06. | |
it is a house of cards and comes tumbling down and they did not | :03:07. | :03:08. | |
realise that at the time because they were persuaded. With a | :03:09. | :03:12. | |
professional looking brochure, this company did everything to convince | :03:13. | :03:18. | |
people it was legitimate. To investors, Ben Wilson happy to be | :03:19. | :03:21. | |
incredibly successful, the court has heard he claimed to bring in monthly | :03:22. | :03:26. | |
charges of up to 9%. He took and everyone from friends to city | :03:27. | :03:32. | |
dealers, getting up to ?1.5 million into the fund. Sure Investment was a | :03:33. | :03:41. | |
fake scheme. Some to that of Bernie Madoff and the US, the fraudster who | :03:42. | :03:46. | |
earned up to ?40 million ripping people off. It is a type of fraud in | :03:47. | :03:51. | |
which investors receive quick returns from money invested by | :03:52. | :03:55. | |
others. There is never enough money to be everyone back. And Malachi, | :03:56. | :04:00. | |
Wilson only invested ?4 million and lost half of that money. He spent | :04:01. | :04:06. | |
the cash on trips to Las Vegas, resources, fast cars and his biggest | :04:07. | :04:10. | |
parties was a ?4 billion luxury home. His victims are fighting to | :04:11. | :04:17. | |
get back their money. They have been told not to expect more than 31p for | :04:18. | :04:25. | |
every ?1 invested. I think he is a despicable man and when I hear about | :04:26. | :04:29. | |
what he has done to others and the friends of hers and the friends of | :04:30. | :04:32. | |
his parents, and all that sort of thing, I cannot believe it. I do not | :04:33. | :04:38. | |
know how he can walk this earth. I wish there was a punishment that | :04:39. | :04:41. | |
suited him. Sentencing Benjamin Wilson, the QC told the court this | :04:42. | :04:48. | |
was a shameful type of fraud and that the abuse of trust was on a | :04:49. | :04:52. | |
massive scale and would have a lasting effect on his victims. | :04:53. | :04:56. | |
Ben Wilson was jailed for seven years today and banned from being a | :04:57. | :04:59. | |
company director for 15 years. Alastair Fee, BBC South Today. | :05:00. | :05:09. | |
Two cyclists are dead and a man has been arrested after a suspected | :05:10. | :05:12. | |
police pursuit in Berkshire. The crash happened in | :05:13. | :05:13. | |
Purley`on`Thamesnear Reading last night. Thames Valley Police says a | :05:14. | :05:17. | |
police vehicle at the scene was not involved in any collisions. But a | :05:18. | :05:21. | |
police watchdog has been called in to investigate. Nikki Mitchell | :05:22. | :05:26. | |
reports. Two candles burn in memory of the | :05:27. | :05:29. | |
two cyclists killed here. People living nearby all described hearing | :05:30. | :05:32. | |
a massive bang when the crash happened around nine o'clock last | :05:33. | :05:35. | |
night. Many came out to see if they could help, but the police were | :05:36. | :05:42. | |
already here. The police it seemed were chasing | :05:43. | :05:47. | |
the car. As we heard the crash or as my partner's son heard the crash, as | :05:48. | :05:51. | |
we got to the window, the police were already present, so we put two | :05:52. | :05:54. | |
and two together and assumed that the police were chasing the car. | :05:55. | :05:58. | |
The police, who carried out a second search of the scene today, still | :05:59. | :06:01. | |
haven't confirmed or denied that they were pursuing the car. But the | :06:02. | :06:07. | |
whole incident has been referred to the Independent Police Complaints | :06:08. | :06:09. | |
Commission. The Thames Valley Force has said its officers were | :06:10. | :06:12. | |
responding to reports that someone's safety was threatened at a home | :06:13. | :06:15. | |
along Purley Rise. They then became aware of a black BMW convertible | :06:16. | :06:19. | |
connected to the incident they were responding to. | :06:20. | :06:24. | |
It was the BMW which is thought to have struck this lamp post before | :06:25. | :06:28. | |
hitting two keen cyclists out for an evening ride. Those who knew or | :06:29. | :06:32. | |
loved the men who died laid flowers by the roadside today. John Moorland | :06:33. | :06:39. | |
was 30 and a father of two. Kris Jarvis was 39 and had five children. | :06:40. | :06:48. | |
"That's horrific. We had no idea anybody... We just saw the chap | :06:49. | :06:52. | |
being taken out of the car. He was crying a bit, screaming. That was | :06:53. | :06:56. | |
the only injury we saw. We didn't know there was anybody killed. You | :06:57. | :06:58. | |
know, it's horrible. The 31`year`old driver of the BMW | :06:59. | :07:10. | |
lives here in Purley`on`Thames. His injuries were treated by doctors at | :07:11. | :07:13. | |
the Royal Berkshire Hospital. When he was discharged, he was then | :07:14. | :07:17. | |
arrested on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving. | :07:18. | :07:19. | |
Downing Street's confirmed letter bombs sent to Army careers offices | :07:20. | :07:22. | |
in the South bore the hallmarks of Northern Ireland`related terrorism. | :07:23. | :07:25. | |
What's been described as a crude but viable device was discovered at the | :07:26. | :07:28. | |
office in St Mary's Butts in Reading on Tuesday. Yesterday one was found | :07:29. | :07:32. | |
in Oxford. Others have been found in Aldershot, Brighton, Slough and | :07:33. | :07:34. | |
Kent. No group has claimed responsibility. | :07:35. | :07:41. | |
A 20`year`old has been sentenced to five years' detention for killing a | :07:42. | :07:44. | |
man who was crushed by a train at Guildford Station last year. Joshua | :07:45. | :07:47. | |
Elphick, who's from the town, punched Ryan Harrison during a | :07:48. | :07:50. | |
drunken brawl, knocking him onto the rails. Two other 20`year`olds were | :07:51. | :07:53. | |
also sentenced for affray for their part in the fight. Rob Powell | :07:54. | :07:59. | |
reports. A Saturday night last year at | :08:00. | :08:02. | |
Guildford Station ` an argument breaks out between two groups of | :08:03. | :08:06. | |
men. Ryan Harrison and Joel Parish ` whose faces have been obscured ` | :08:07. | :08:10. | |
have just got on. Joel Parish is hit by Joshua Elphick, who had been | :08:11. | :08:14. | |
getting off at Guildford. Both men are pulled onto the platform where | :08:15. | :08:18. | |
Ryan Harrison is hit. Ryan falls between the train and the platform. | :08:19. | :08:21. | |
Seconds later the train starts moving. | :08:22. | :08:29. | |
Brian Harrison was struck by a moving train and died instantly. The | :08:30. | :08:34. | |
whole family is completely destroyed. What happened will always | :08:35. | :08:41. | |
stay with us. We will never forget. We are trying to rebuild our lives | :08:42. | :08:45. | |
but it is really hard. At Guildford Crown Court Joshua Elphick who had | :08:46. | :08:50. | |
punched Ryan Nelsen eight and earlier pleaded guilty to his | :08:51. | :08:54. | |
manslaughter, was sentenced to five years detention in the youth | :08:55. | :08:57. | |
offenders institution. He will serve half of this term. Two other men, | :08:58. | :09:02. | |
Jack Hardy and Harry Miller, were sentenced to 12 months in the youth | :09:03. | :09:06. | |
offenders institution after being guilty of a free. One other man by | :09:07. | :09:11. | |
the name of Adam was found not guilty. This has been Kos by alcohol | :09:12. | :09:18. | |
fuelled violence and anti`social behaviour. The type of behaviour | :09:19. | :09:22. | |
that is conducted throughout the behaviour of many towns and cities. | :09:23. | :09:27. | |
Nobody realised unfortunately the dangers of behaving in that manner | :09:28. | :09:30. | |
around a really station. Sentencing today, the judge said any sober | :09:31. | :09:35. | |
person would have seen that fighting at the station could have led to | :09:36. | :09:39. | |
someone falling on the tracks. Addressing the defendants he told | :09:40. | :09:43. | |
them you could have walked away and you should have walked away. | :09:44. | :09:47. | |
Campaigners opposed to millions of pounds of council cuts in West | :09:48. | :09:50. | |
Sussex have disrupted a meeting about budget cuts. Protesters from | :09:51. | :09:53. | |
the group Don't Cut Us Out interrupted the meeting by shouting | :09:54. | :09:56. | |
from the public gallery. They were protesting against cuts to adult | :09:57. | :09:59. | |
social care under the budget which sees council tax being frozen. | :10:00. | :10:01. | |
Despite the disturbance, the Conservative`led council approved | :10:02. | :10:04. | |
?55 million worth of cuts in a two`year savings plan. | :10:05. | :10:13. | |
Still to come in this evening's South Today: if you are concerned at | :10:14. | :10:19. | |
all about the weather, stay with us because we will have all the details | :10:20. | :10:24. | |
for the weekend. Tony Husband will be easier with the sport and | :10:25. | :10:31. | |
also... Almost lost to America... The historic ring which has been | :10:32. | :10:36. | |
brought back home. There are three severe weather | :10:37. | :10:39. | |
warnings tonight for areas along the south coast, as the storms show no | :10:40. | :10:43. | |
signs of abating. Lymington and Keyhaven, Christchurch Harbour and | :10:44. | :10:46. | |
Portland have all been put on alert, with a severe warning meaning danger | :10:47. | :10:50. | |
to life. It follows another day of heavy rain, with strong winds now | :10:51. | :10:58. | |
picking up across the region. The Army has been out in Reading helping | :10:59. | :11:01. | |
with sandbags and the Navy has been trying to avert flooding in Romsey. | :11:02. | :11:05. | |
It's from just outside Romsey that we can join our reporter Ben Moore | :11:06. | :11:12. | |
tonight. Ben. Thank you very much, Sally. You can | :11:13. | :11:16. | |
hear that the wind is getting up behind me. We are not of Romsey and | :11:17. | :11:23. | |
under this bridge which the Army have been reinforcing the river of | :11:24. | :11:28. | |
all`day and what that has done is divert the river, as you can see out | :11:29. | :11:33. | |
onto the flood plain. It is a difficult river to manage. It split | :11:34. | :11:37. | |
into four different parts and the idea is that the water can be put | :11:38. | :11:40. | |
onto the flood plain, and to those channels that is divert around the | :11:41. | :11:44. | |
town of Romsey. That's channel that goes through the main part of Romsey | :11:45. | :11:48. | |
will stop flooding and perhaps homes and businesses can be saved. We were | :11:49. | :11:55. | |
on one area to the where businesses are worried you to the closure | :11:56. | :11:58. | |
because of the flooding and they cannot get supplies in or out. | :11:59. | :12:03. | |
Selling cars as nigh`on impossible when abroad as a river. Garage owner | :12:04. | :12:09. | |
Steve Carlyle had only 20 minutes to bring staff and supplies into work | :12:10. | :12:13. | |
this morning. I totally understand that it has to be shut but I feel as | :12:14. | :12:17. | |
a business, you cannot simply stop the business. We have things to do | :12:18. | :12:23. | |
and bills to pay, customers that wants to collect vehicles and I am | :12:24. | :12:27. | |
willing to carry on but they are not letting us. The roadblock here is | :12:28. | :12:34. | |
designed to stay, concrete blocks rather than sandbags banning all | :12:35. | :12:38. | |
traffic. There are 30 to 40 businesses on this trading estate, | :12:39. | :12:46. | |
no deliveries is not an option. If we do not get the order so we do not | :12:47. | :12:50. | |
get paid. We are an independent company and we must remain open to | :12:51. | :12:56. | |
survive. Homes are also being defended from the bloated river. HMS | :12:57. | :13:01. | |
Collingwood was again making the trip inland to sandbagged houses in | :13:02. | :13:07. | |
this area. Just north of year, the river terrace separates into | :13:08. | :13:12. | |
multiple channels. The main channel runs through the centre of town and | :13:13. | :13:16. | |
the others run past the outskirts. More water is being forced into | :13:17. | :13:19. | |
these, hopefully to protect the centre of Romsey. Israel that | :13:20. | :13:27. | |
prevention is better than each year. They are some areas that are free or | :13:28. | :13:37. | |
five feet submerged underwater. I think they have done well. At least | :13:38. | :13:42. | |
there is no shortage of defence 's ear. The Army have been using | :13:43. | :13:45. | |
thousands of sandbags secured from local farms by MP Caroline Dinenage | :13:46. | :13:55. | |
to secure the local river banks. Some places it completely broke down | :13:56. | :13:59. | |
and we have tried to reinforce that. River levels continue to rise as her | :14:00. | :14:04. | |
fears for homes and businesses in this tone. Joining me now is David | :14:05. | :14:08. | |
Robinson from the Environment Agency. How are you managing to | :14:09. | :14:15. | |
shore up the river terrace? It is very difficult and Romsey, we are | :14:16. | :14:19. | |
right on the edge year. There is a huge amount of water coming down the | :14:20. | :14:22. | |
river at the moment and we have had unprecedented volumes of rainfall. | :14:23. | :14:27. | |
We obviously have a lot of rain falling on saturated ground already, | :14:28. | :14:31. | |
so it is a real problem managing the water over the river terrace. What | :14:32. | :14:35. | |
we are doing and Romsey is having a look at how we can manage the flow | :14:36. | :14:38. | |
through the central channel that runs through the town. The Army has | :14:39. | :14:42. | |
been making sure that the river banks are strong as they can be and | :14:43. | :14:46. | |
we will be looking over the next couple of days with our professional | :14:47. | :14:51. | |
partners, the Lukla authorities, with the Army, with the emergency | :14:52. | :15:00. | |
services, is what he can do to try and make things better around the | :15:01. | :15:04. | |
flood plain. You have warnings in place and have some advice. That is | :15:05. | :15:09. | |
correct, three severe warnings are around the coast for Lymington, | :15:10. | :15:17. | |
Christchurch and Portland. That means there is a risk to life, so we | :15:18. | :15:22. | |
are urging people to call our flood plain number. You can get that | :15:23. | :15:28. | |
online. Please stay safe, if you have any concerns, listen to your | :15:29. | :15:32. | |
local radio station or tune into local TV. Thank you very much, | :15:33. | :15:39. | |
David. You can see the river levels continue to rise but hotly there | :15:40. | :15:43. | |
will be some respite over the weekend. `` but hopefully. | :15:44. | :15:50. | |
On the Sunday Politics this weekend we're going to be asking whether we | :15:51. | :15:53. | |
can afford the cost of protecting everywhere that may be at risk of | :15:54. | :15:57. | |
flooding and whether we need to change regulations about where you | :15:58. | :16:00. | |
can and can't build. That's Sunday Politics, on Sunday, on BBC One at | :16:01. | :16:02. | |
11am. Six people have gone on trial | :16:03. | :16:05. | |
accused of murdering a jeweller at Fernhurst in West Sussex. | :16:06. | :16:08. | |
59`year`old Michael Griffiths' body was found tied`up at his home which | :16:09. | :16:11. | |
had been set on fire. It's claimed burglars had tortured Mr Griffiths | :16:12. | :16:14. | |
to try to steal two valuable diamonds. Six people deny murder. | :16:15. | :16:21. | |
Sean Killick reports. It was seven o'clock in the morning | :16:22. | :16:26. | |
on January the 24th last year when a woman noticed smoke coming out of | :16:27. | :16:30. | |
her neighbour's house and West Sussex. She raised the alarm and | :16:31. | :16:34. | |
firefighters found the front door jammed but forced their way inside | :16:35. | :16:37. | |
and discovered behind the door the body of a man. Prosecutor Christine | :16:38. | :16:42. | |
Lang told the jury to the that the man had known X `` legs between the | :16:43. | :16:48. | |
knees and he had not managed to escape the blaze. Once the | :16:49. | :16:52. | |
firefighters had tackled the fire, Ms Lang said they had discovered | :16:53. | :16:56. | |
this was no tragic accident. The man was mad legs and hands had been tied | :16:57. | :16:59. | |
with cables and his head`series and injured. Later examination showed he | :17:00. | :17:04. | |
had been tortured and the fire was started deliberately with petrol. | :17:05. | :17:08. | |
Sussex Police has since launched a murder investigation. The victim was | :17:09. | :17:12. | |
59`year`old Michael Griffiths who had worked at an auction years and | :17:13. | :17:17. | |
was a self`employed jeweller at a workshop at his own home. Ms Lang | :17:18. | :17:21. | |
said that it was common knowledge that Mr Griffiths owned two diamonds | :17:22. | :17:26. | |
worth around ?40,000. The prosecution believe the burglars | :17:27. | :17:31. | |
tortured him to try to get him to open the safe but he did use and it | :17:32. | :17:37. | |
remained locked. Mr Griffiths was killed and his house set on fire to | :17:38. | :17:41. | |
destroy the evidence. Anne Hall seven people are on trial in | :17:42. | :17:44. | |
connection with the death of this man. One woman and five men deny the | :17:45. | :17:49. | |
murder. Six defendants denied the conspiracy to prevent the course of | :17:50. | :17:55. | |
justice. Three of these people have pleaded guilty. The child is | :17:56. | :17:59. | |
expected to last for several weeks. Measures aimed at increasing | :18:00. | :18:01. | |
capacity, reducing congestion and increasing average speeds may be | :18:02. | :18:04. | |
introduced on the M3. The Highways Agency is consulting on the plans | :18:05. | :18:08. | |
which would also see the day time speed limit reduced to 60 miles per | :18:09. | :18:12. | |
hour between Junctions 3 and four ` Lightwater to Farnborough. That's to | :18:13. | :18:19. | |
reduce emissions that are forecast to breach air quality limits. The | :18:20. | :18:23. | |
weather is likely to hit this weekend's sporting programme. Tony's | :18:24. | :18:27. | |
here to look ahead to a big weekend in three different cup competitions, | :18:28. | :18:38. | |
weather permitting. Tony. The situation is very fluid, thank | :18:39. | :18:42. | |
you, Sally. In what's sure to be a wet weekend, | :18:43. | :18:46. | |
we did have interest in three FA competitions across the region with | :18:47. | :18:50. | |
teams in the FA Cup, the FA Trophy and the FA Vase. Southampton hope to | :18:51. | :18:53. | |
keep their cup hopes alive at the Stadium of Light. There's Anne Hall | :18:54. | :18:56. | |
Hampshire tie in the semifinals of the FA Trophy with that first leg | :18:57. | :18:58. | |
between Havant Waterlooville and Gosport Borough. While Sholing are | :18:59. | :19:01. | |
still in the hunt for Wembley, and the last hour their FA vies fifth | :19:02. | :19:05. | |
round tie against Larkhall has been postponed. Southampton travel to | :19:06. | :19:09. | |
Sunderland for the third time this season hoping to win on Wearside for | :19:10. | :19:16. | |
the first time. They are safe in the Premier League so a cup run would be | :19:17. | :19:19. | |
a big bonus for them after making several changes in victories in | :19:20. | :19:23. | |
rounds three and four, while the manager moved closer to a food then | :19:24. | :19:30. | |
say tomorrow? There is a great incentive for us to proceed in this | :19:31. | :19:34. | |
tournament. We will try to do something special and this | :19:35. | :19:38. | |
competition. But we have a difficult day on Saturday against Sunderland. | :19:39. | :19:41. | |
We have not beaten them this season. They have had great form recently | :19:42. | :19:46. | |
and they dominated the first half against us in the last match. So it | :19:47. | :19:50. | |
will be a difficult game but we are desperate to do well in this | :19:51. | :19:54. | |
competition and get you into the next round. That kicks off tomorrow | :19:55. | :19:58. | |
at 12:45pm. You can listen to it on Radio | :19:59. | :20:02. | |
Solent. And the FA Trophy we told you about | :20:03. | :20:04. | |
Havant Waterlooville hosting Gosport Borough. That is subject to | :20:05. | :20:12. | |
a 9:30am pitch inspection tomorrow. Wembley is in sight for both clubs | :20:13. | :20:19. | |
but manager Alex Pike summed up the significance of this all Hampshire | :20:20. | :20:26. | |
tie. This will go down in non`league folklore history, regardless of who | :20:27. | :20:29. | |
gets to Wembley. Everyone will remember this type. | :20:30. | :20:36. | |
BBC Radio Solent also has live coverage of that high. `` tie. | :20:37. | :20:44. | |
Sholing were hoping to reach the last eight of the FA Vase but their | :20:45. | :20:50. | |
match has been postponed. It will be rearranged for next | :20:51. | :20:55. | |
Saturday. Reading are the latest league club to back proposals to | :20:56. | :20:58. | |
investigate safe standing on grounds. | :20:59. | :21:00. | |
They travel to Queens Park Rangers on Sunday. Nigel Adkins' men are | :21:01. | :21:05. | |
hanging on in the play`off positions in sixth place. Harry Redknapp 's | :21:06. | :21:14. | |
MAC team are in third place. Heavy rain has affected the Dean Court and | :21:15. | :21:18. | |
they will be a pitch inspection at 7am tomorrow morning. Swindon's game | :21:19. | :21:24. | |
against Colchester tonight is still on at the moment. At his MK Dons | :21:25. | :21:30. | |
against Oldham. In sky get weak to Oxford take on Mansfield. No pitch | :21:31. | :21:37. | |
inspection planned at Portsmouth despite the club saying that the | :21:38. | :21:41. | |
pitch was waterlogged earlier today. The worst of the rain has been | :21:42. | :21:45. | |
drained away. Pompey are looking for their second win of the campaign and | :21:46. | :21:50. | |
revenge over their opponents MK Dons tomorrow. Half of the players were | :21:51. | :22:00. | |
not here at the time. I have watched the DVD and it could have been a lot | :22:01. | :22:07. | |
worse than 4`0. Those sorts of results have led to as being in the | :22:08. | :22:11. | |
current position that we find ourselves in and we must make sure | :22:12. | :22:16. | |
we are not beaten like that again. Hampshire are set to sign Australian | :22:17. | :22:19. | |
Glenn Maxwell for his second spell at the Ageas Bowl ground. He | :22:20. | :22:24. | |
initially was an Hampshire in 2012. He decided to play the 20 over | :22:25. | :22:29. | |
format but could stay on for other games. London Wasps are playing | :22:30. | :22:35. | |
rugby tomorrow. The base of the Premier League title | :22:36. | :22:41. | |
continues as well. Here are the matches... `` the ice hockey Premier | :22:42. | :22:51. | |
League title. First a piece of jewellery that once | :22:52. | :22:53. | |
belonged to Jane Austen is on display in Hampshire. It was feared | :22:54. | :22:57. | |
the ring would be taken out of the UK after it was bought by an | :22:58. | :23:01. | |
American singer Kelly Clarkson. She was banned from exporting it because | :23:02. | :23:04. | |
it was deemed as a national treasure. It is tiny but a national | :23:05. | :23:08. | |
treasure. This ring was worn by Jane Austen | :23:09. | :23:12. | |
and is one of only three acres known to have belonged to her. After Jane | :23:13. | :23:18. | |
Austen 's death it was passed to her sister who passed it onto a relative | :23:19. | :23:22. | |
and it went through a number of female Austen relatives down the | :23:23. | :23:27. | |
line. The tortoise and gold ring was bought at auction by the American | :23:28. | :23:32. | |
pop singer Kelly Clarkson in 2012. She bit more than ?150,000, but | :23:33. | :23:37. | |
bidding the Jane Austen HOWZAT! New Zealand. They decided that it | :23:38. | :23:44. | |
was of such national significance that it could not be removed from | :23:45. | :23:47. | |
the country without another organisation or museum to come | :23:48. | :23:51. | |
forward and have the chance to bid for it. Today is the first day the | :23:52. | :23:55. | |
public can view the ring. Visitors to the museum were | :23:56. | :24:00. | |
serenaded to celebrate the treasure that was almost lost. It is | :24:01. | :24:05. | |
charming, understated but had a beauty of its own. I am glad that we | :24:06. | :24:13. | |
never lost it. It looks really cool because it looks really authentic. | :24:14. | :24:21. | |
Would you like to wear that? Yes! The museum must `` launched a | :24:22. | :24:29. | |
successful campaign to find a donor. It has ensured the ring now has a | :24:30. | :24:35. | |
permanent home. It is on display to the public, | :24:36. | :24:38. | |
really good, saved for the nation, fabulous! Let us move on to the | :24:39. | :24:44. | |
weather, because I am sure you have all been waiting for the latest | :24:45. | :24:48. | |
details. Alexis, the wind has been picking up, we saw Ben talking about | :24:49. | :24:53. | |
how strong the wind was at the River Thames. That is correct. Dorset was | :24:54. | :25:03. | |
one of the wettest places today. The wind is already gusting along the | :25:04. | :25:07. | |
south coast at 73 mph. We have severe weather warnings and a | :25:08. | :25:16. | |
further risk of coastal flooding. John Amis sent us this picture. | :25:17. | :25:28. | |
Alberto Ferrone thanks to Cindy Billington for this picture. | :25:29. | :25:39. | |
There will be some dangerous conditions along the coast tonight. | :25:40. | :25:45. | |
Up until midnight tonight and the early hours of tomorrow morning, | :25:46. | :25:52. | |
that Amber wind warning as in force. A yellow weather warning in force | :25:53. | :25:55. | |
for inland areas as well where we could see up to 60 mph gusts. On the | :25:56. | :26:01. | |
coast we could get up to 80 mph which could produce large waves and | :26:02. | :26:06. | |
heavy showers mixed in with some thunder. Temperatures are around six | :26:07. | :26:10. | |
or seven Celsius. Very blustery conditions. The wind will not ease, | :26:11. | :26:16. | |
we are expecting gusts of 40 to 50 mph, more so along the South coast. | :26:17. | :26:20. | |
Those showers will rattle and from the South West with the risk of | :26:21. | :26:23. | |
thunder but gradually easing from the West into the afternoon. We | :26:24. | :26:28. | |
expect highs tomorrow of nine or 10 Celsius. It is only tomorrow evening | :26:29. | :26:33. | |
that we will finally seals Windies. The showers will disappear and the | :26:34. | :26:36. | |
skies will clear so that temperatures will fall rapidly. We | :26:37. | :26:40. | |
expect their risk of ice on untreated surfaces. Also where we | :26:41. | :26:45. | |
have showers through the course of the day tomorrow. Down to freezing | :26:46. | :26:51. | |
in the countryside. Also the risk of frost on the first thing on Sunday. | :26:52. | :26:54. | |
The good thing is we have a respite from the rain and from the wind on | :26:55. | :27:00. | |
Sunday. The wind is much lighter on Sunday. You can see the eyes of ours | :27:01. | :27:04. | |
widening. It will be a mainly dry day with some sunshine before this | :27:05. | :27:08. | |
next area of low pressure pushes and another weather system, not as | :27:09. | :27:12. | |
intense as the last few stars we have had, but it will give some | :27:13. | :27:16. | |
rainfall, the wind is not as strong either. Here is your summary for the | :27:17. | :27:20. | |
rest of the week and into the weekend. And amber warning in force | :27:21. | :27:24. | |
for the South coast but those winds will be brisk inland as well, they | :27:25. | :27:27. | |
may bring some trees down and there will be some coastal flooding. | :27:28. | :27:34. | |
Thank you, Alexis. BBC local radio is the place to listen to for the | :27:35. | :27:39. | |
latest information. Have a great weekend. Good night. | :27:40. | :27:47. |
