I'm Roger Finn with the news here in the south.

:00:10.:00:12.

As you may have just heard on the national news,

:00:13.:00:14.

police in Hampshire investigating the murder of a mother in the New

:00:15.:00:17.

The body of 47`year`old Pennie Davis was found in a field near Bdaulieu

:00:18.:00:22.

Police have been searching the field and river nearby

:00:23.:00:28.

Today one person has been arrested on suspicion of murder, another

:00:29.:00:32.

on suspicion of perverting the course of justice and the third on

:00:33.:00:36.

People living in Alton are campaigning to save

:00:37.:00:43.

The Hampshire Wildlife Trust says the land is precious habitat,

:00:44.:00:47.

But the Government agency ptshing forward

:00:48.:00:51.

the plans says affordable homes are desperately needed ` and thd former

:00:52.:00:55.

United in defence of these leadows ` locals who have enjoyed thel

:00:56.:01:04.

This is what the meadows look like in their splendour

:01:05.:01:11.

and is why local environmentalists have objected to plans for housing.

:01:12.:01:16.

The old hospital site had grasslands around it,

:01:17.:01:18.

which were mowed and kept throughout the history of the hospital.

:01:19.:01:22.

Now they've relaxed it, it it's been revealed it's `

:01:23.:01:24.

marvellous place for orchids, wild flowers, and a good butterfly site.

:01:25.:01:28.

They are precious and rare habitats, grasslands of this quality.

:01:29.:01:33.

We are not opposing the 150 houses proposed for

:01:34.:01:39.

the bottom of the meadows hdre ` we realise they have to go somdwhere.

:01:40.:01:43.

What we are opposing is that they want to put another 200 houses on

:01:44.:01:46.

They are just too fabulously rich to lose.

:01:47.:01:52.

You'd never get a meadow like this back again, it would take ddcades.

:01:53.:01:57.

The Homes and Communities Agency says it is working closely with

:01:58.:02:00.

a team of ecologists are carried out surveys on the site and added:

:02:01.:02:03.

A planning application was submitted to East Hampshire District Council

:02:04.:02:22.

The public consultation perhod has now closed, and, as yet,

:02:23.:02:27.

there is no date for when a decision will be madd.

:02:28.:02:34.

A family who recently moved to the Wiltshire countryside, they say,

:02:35.:02:36.

for a quiet life, have been talking about their surprise meeting with

:02:37.:02:40.

Barack Obama paid a visit to Stonehenge on his return

:02:41.:02:45.

The Raffle family heard that he was coming ` and raced

:02:46.:02:50.

from their home nearby to the stones to see if they could spot hhm.

:02:51.:02:53.

But they got more than just a glimpse.

:02:54.:02:56.

He quickly strode down and made it very clear he w`nted to

:02:57.:03:00.

and of course we agreed and, yes, we had a lovely family photo.

:03:01.:03:09.

Taken by one of his burly security guards.

:03:10.:03:11.

I don't think it has really struck home yet.

:03:12.:03:17.

No, it is a one in a million ` or once`in`a`lifetime chancd ` of

:03:18.:03:20.

seeing someone who is probably the most powerful person in the world.

:03:21.:03:25.

And he's a really cool guy, really friendly.

:03:26.:03:27.

On to football and just one league match involving a team

:03:28.:03:42.

In League Two, Oxford managdd a one`all draw away to Southend

:03:43.:03:50.

Danny Hylton scored from the penalty spot.

:03:51.:03:52.

The result leaves the Us second from bottom and still without a win.

:03:53.:03:56.

We finally saw some sunny spells through the afternoon and wd are

:03:57.:04:00.

in for a fairly quiet night, one or two showers perhaps at the start

:04:01.:04:04.

There's cloud overnight, and it's a fairly mild one `nd

:04:05.:04:08.

if we do see any breaks, we will see at a bit of mist and

:04:09.:04:11.

But a fairly mild night, with lows of 13 or 14 degreds.

:04:12.:04:19.

If the cloud stays, we'll get averages

:04:20.:04:23.

And just before we go, here are some highlights from this weekend's

:04:24.:04:35.

More than 2,000 animals werd on display ` including goats,

:04:36.:04:39.

There were 500 different st`nds to look at, all showcasing the produce

:04:40.:04:44.

We're back tomorrow evening at 6.50pm.

:04:45.:05:01.

Good evening. It was a mixed bag to start the weekend. The satellite

:05:02.:05:20.

sequence shows cloud across northern Scotland in the centre of an area of

:05:21.:05:23.

low pressure and associated weather fronts drifting east across England

:05:24.:05:25.

and Wales with
