Good evening. stay with us on BBC1 - | :00:00. | :00:10. | |
I'm Anjana Gadgil with the news here in the South. | :00:11. | :00:12. | |
A group of horse riders has staged a protest at a small | :00:13. | :00:15. | |
village on the South Downs against a proposal to | :00:16. | :00:17. | |
They're worried about the ilpact of large lorries and tankers | :00:18. | :00:21. | |
on the country roads near the site at Forestside, in West Sussdx. | :00:22. | :00:26. | |
They're also concerned the drilling may affect water aquifers. | :00:27. | :00:29. | |
This tranquil corner of the South Downs is popul`r | :00:30. | :00:38. | |
The prospect of up to 40 he`vy goods vehicles a day, | :00:39. | :00:42. | |
servicing an oil well, is not popular. | :00:43. | :00:45. | |
A lot of horses use this ro`d, so we are worried about meeting | :00:46. | :00:49. | |
heavy traffic on these roads and our horses bolting. | :00:50. | :00:57. | |
And also our children ride their horses and bikes on these roads | :00:58. | :01:00. | |
so there will be an element of risk them too. | :01:01. | :01:02. | |
The protest ride travelled down a route that would be used | :01:03. | :01:05. | |
Even passing a regular car causes people concern, | :01:06. | :01:09. | |
and often they slow down and pull over. | :01:10. | :01:15. | |
These lorries are going to take over three-quarters of the road, | :01:16. | :01:18. | |
An oil well was first drilldd in Markwell Woods six years ago | :01:19. | :01:22. | |
Now, UK Oil and Gas, has put in a planning application | :01:23. | :01:26. | |
to start drilling again with four new horizontal wells | :01:27. | :01:28. | |
from the site, right beside an important water apuifer. | :01:29. | :01:34. | |
Our concerns are that they will actually affect the flow | :01:35. | :01:40. | |
of the water snf the turbidhty of the water as they drill through. | :01:41. | :01:43. | |
But even greater is the concern of the kind of chemicals thdy're | :01:44. | :01:46. | |
going to be putting down through the aquifer. | :01:47. | :01:51. | |
Portsmouth Water has asked for more information about how water | :01:52. | :01:54. | |
UK Oil and Gas says there whll be no risk of contamination as its wells | :01:55. | :01:59. | |
will be thoroughly cased with steel tubing and concrete. | :02:00. | :02:02. | |
It plans to discuss concerns with residents next month. | :02:03. | :02:05. | |

The Transport Secretary Chrhs Grayling has confirmed | :02:09. | :02:10. | |
the Government will make a decision on Tuesday about whether to expand | :02:11. | :02:13. | |
He insisted Ministers had still not made up their minds and said | :02:14. | :02:19. | |
he expected "challenge and opposition" whatever | :02:20. | :02:20. | |
Items that once belonged to Kindertransport hero | :02:21. | :02:28. | |
Sir Nicholas Winton, who lived in Berkshire, | :02:29. | :02:30. | |
are to be sold at auction in Oxfordshire. | :02:31. | :02:32. | |
Sir Nicholas, who died last year aged 106, brought Jewish chhldren | :02:33. | :02:36. | |
from Nazi-occupied Czechoslovakia to the UK. | :02:37. | :02:43. | |
The items include his 105th birthday message from the Queen | :02:44. | :02:47. | |
and an engraving from one of the children he rescued. | :02:48. | :02:49. | |
Thousands of people have taken part | :02:50. | :02:51. | |
The 10-mile race through thd streets of Portsmouth is one | :02:52. | :02:56. | |
of the country's biggest mass participation sporting events. | :02:57. | :02:58. | |
This year's run raised an estimated ?4 million for charities. | :02:59. | :03:00. | |
It started 27 years ago with a few thousand participants, but now | :03:01. | :03:03. | |
comprises of four events ovdr two days, involving 25,000 runndrs. | :03:04. | :03:20. | |
Nice time, great atmosphere, great people. The music and the crowd | :03:21. | :03:30. | |
really helps. Do you think `bout your charity while you run? Every | :03:31. | :03:37. | |
step. The bagpipes were fantastic. We needed it more at the end. Well | :03:38. | :03:40. | |
done everyone. Football now, and if you don't | :03:41. | :03:42. | |
want to know the Southampton score against Manchester City | :03:43. | :03:45. | |
turn away now. Match of the Day is | :03:46. | :03:46. | |
on after this bulletin. Jon Stones gifted the ball | :03:47. | :03:48. | |
to Nathan Redmond, who rounded Claudio Bravo | :03:49. | :03:53. | |
for the opening goal. In the second half, | :03:54. | :03:57. | |
City were the stronger. A great ball from Fernandinho | :03:58. | :03:59. | |
to find Leroy Sane, crossing to Kelechi Iheanacho | :04:00. | :04:01. | |
who finished it off. But Southampton held | :04:02. | :04:03. | |
on for a well deserved point. Good evening. We have not h`d rain | :04:04. | :04:22. | |

So far this month most of the rain has been near Eastern coasts. That's | :04:59. | :05:16. | |

mist and fog. Northern areas will see spells of sunshine in the | :05:50. | :05:53. | |
morning. Some showers, but not as many as recently. The Midlands and | :05:54. | :05:57. | |
