the windscreen first thing in the morning. That is all from us. | :00:00. | :00:12. | |
298 stores in 26 countries, but could the South West be the next | :00:13. | :00:15. | |
stop for IKEA? Good evening. Welcome to Spotlight. | :00:16. | :00:22. | |
The move would create hundreds of jobs and bring another big name to | :00:23. | :00:25. | |
Exeter. But what sort of impact would the global furniture brand | :00:26. | :00:34. | |
have? Hello. Also tonight ` the cold can kill even in a milder winter. | :00:35. | :00:38. | |
A departments are still seeing plenty of cases. I've been | :00:39. | :00:40. | |
investigating the temperature indoors and the effect on older | :00:41. | :00:43. | |
people's blood pressure. And from images of the past to pictures in | :00:44. | :00:46. | |
the present. The filmakers documenting life in the South West | :00:47. | :00:49. | |
today for the generations of tomorrow. | :00:50. | :00:55. | |
IKEA, the furniture company which began in Sweden and expanded around | :00:56. | :01:00. | |
the world, could become one of the biggest retailers in the South West. | :01:01. | :01:04. | |
Hundreds of jobs would be created on the outskirts of Exeter. The move | :01:05. | :01:09. | |
follows the arrival of John Lewis in the city last year. Councillors are | :01:10. | :01:13. | |
tonight considering the move. We'll get the latest from their meeting in | :01:14. | :01:17. | |
a moment, but first John Henderson looks at the impact on the local | :01:18. | :01:18. | |
economy beyond the jobs created. Flatpack furniture and Swedish | :01:19. | :01:30. | |
meatballs. So far the IKEA invasion has not reached this part of the UK, | :01:31. | :01:34. | |
but on the outskirts of Exeter, the retailer wants to build a store for | :01:35. | :01:38. | |
the business community. The prospect for them is great news, with one | :01:39. | :01:47. | |
caveat. We think is it is essential for good links to the city centre, | :01:48. | :01:51. | |
because otherwise the 400,000 visitors they estimate coming to | :01:52. | :01:54. | |
IKEA won't see what else is available in this great city, so we | :01:55. | :01:57. | |
have to make sure there are subsidised links into the city from | :01:58. | :02:02. | |
the IKEA store. So far the nearest IKEA is just outside Bristol. It is | :02:03. | :02:08. | |
estimated the annual spend at the store is ?14 million, just from | :02:09. | :02:11. | |
customers from Devon, Cornwall, Somerset and Dorset. Depending on | :02:12. | :02:15. | |
the outcome tonight, that is money that could be spent closer to home. | :02:16. | :02:20. | |
In any story like this there are winners and losers. That might | :02:21. | :02:25. | |
relate to some of the locations like Torbay, where people drive from | :02:26. | :02:30. | |
Torbay for the consumer experience in Exeter. Exeter already has severe | :02:31. | :02:38. | |
traffic problems, and what about small retailers cross market is | :02:39. | :02:40. | |
tough enough on the high Street with the recession and online | :02:41. | :02:44. | |
competition, but one expert on business links the effect could be | :02:45. | :02:50. | |
positive. Most people if they are sensible wood found other places as | :02:51. | :02:55. | |
a comparison, and if they come across ourselves, which is a family | :02:56. | :02:58. | |
business man do it in a more personal way, with design is the | :02:59. | :03:02. | |
strongest feature, it is not an issue or a problem. Probably they | :03:03. | :03:07. | |
will deal with us. For years there has been speculation about where and | :03:08. | :03:10. | |
when the south`east would get its own store selling this, and now the | :03:11. | :03:14. | |
choice is Exeter. Leigh Rundle is at the council | :03:15. | :03:19. | |
meeting in Exeter for us now. So has the company managed to get through | :03:20. | :03:22. | |
the initial stages of the planning process? Well, the meeting is still | :03:23. | :03:32. | |
ongoing. You join me here at the Civic Centre in Exeter, and it's | :03:33. | :03:35. | |
worth mentioning that this meeting was supposed to have happened a week | :03:36. | :03:39. | |
ago but it was postponed in order that objectives `` objectors would | :03:40. | :03:44. | |
have more time to make their views known. Most of the objections you've | :03:45. | :03:48. | |
already heard. Tonight at the meeting, the planning officer | :03:49. | :03:53. | |
putting forward the case for IKEA, explained how big the development | :03:54. | :03:59. | |
would be and gave assurances that all of the things that needed to be | :04:00. | :04:02. | |
put in place would be. We also heard from John Lewis, and this is a new | :04:03. | :04:06. | |
piece of information, that they apparently do not oppose this | :04:07. | :04:11. | |
application but they are very keen to get more information about | :04:12. | :04:13. | |
specifically what IKEA plans to sell. Thank you very much. When we | :04:14. | :04:19. | |
get the decision, we will bring it to you on this programme or in the | :04:20. | :04:21. | |
late news at 10:25pm. The winter pressure on A | :04:22. | :04:26. | |
departments may have eased slightly this year following a period of | :04:27. | :04:29. | |
relatively mild, if stormy, weather but there are still problems for | :04:30. | :04:33. | |
emergency care. The system struggles when patients can't move onto wards | :04:34. | :04:36. | |
because they're full, and yet more are coming through the doors all the | :04:37. | :04:39. | |
time. Yeovil District Hospital is now trying to see older people | :04:40. | :04:43. | |
before they end up at A at an urgent medical centre, as Matthew | :04:44. | :04:44. | |
Hill reports. The Amelia Brooker is one of an `` a | :04:45. | :04:58. | |
growing number of elderly patients being treated in Yeovil, and one in | :04:59. | :05:06. | |
`` the numbers of 75 or over people are expected to grow by a third in | :05:07. | :05:09. | |
the next decade. The pressure of dealing with an ageing population is | :05:10. | :05:12. | |
being brought into focused in accident and emergency. Accident and | :05:13. | :05:17. | |
emergency is not a good place to be for older people, because it has got | :05:18. | :05:21. | |
a different sort of patient to be looked after. It is a fast pace. | :05:22. | :05:28. | |
There are trainees, and the doctors there are not trained to look after | :05:29. | :05:36. | |
all the patients and their needs, so the emergency department is not the | :05:37. | :05:40. | |
right place these people. From today, ambulances and GPs will be | :05:41. | :05:43. | |
able to bypass accident and emergency and send cases straight to | :05:44. | :05:48. | |
Yeovilton's older patient assessment unit. `` Yeovilton's. They will then | :05:49. | :05:55. | |
be seen by staff and social workers who will be able to help them back | :05:56. | :06:00. | |
into the community. The argument is to introduce this type of assessment | :06:01. | :06:08. | |
centre and let them grow. For instance, if you look at the number | :06:09. | :06:12. | |
of patients admitted to hospital in Somerset five years ago who was `` | :06:13. | :06:18. | |
were malnourished, it was 30, but last year it grew to over 200. The | :06:19. | :06:23. | |
scheme has already been up and running in Poole Hospital. It is | :06:24. | :06:28. | |
hoped that like their nine out of ten patients will successfully be | :06:29. | :06:32. | |
discharged into the community `` it is hoped luck like there. `` it is | :06:33. | :06:36. | |
hoped that like there. While milder weather may have been | :06:37. | :06:41. | |
giving hospitals like Yeovil a helping hand in dealing with the | :06:42. | :06:43. | |
pressures, an investigation by Inside Out South West has shown even | :06:44. | :06:47. | |
these winter temperatures can cause health problems. Sam and the team | :06:48. | :06:52. | |
have been carrying out a simple experiment to show the risks to | :06:53. | :06:54. | |
older people of getting too cold. Please only puts his heating on for | :06:55. | :07:06. | |
two hours a day, and usually are just 15 degrees `` Keith only puts | :07:07. | :07:09. | |
his heating on. That is too cold comfort says research. If we attack | :07:10. | :07:14. | |
causes of death in the winter, less 1% is from hypothermia, and the | :07:15. | :07:18. | |
statement I normally give is that the cold will kill you long before | :07:19. | :07:24. | |
your body gets to be that cold. These are so`called excess winter | :07:25. | :07:28. | |
deaths, and last year the office of National statistics recorded just | :07:29. | :07:31. | |
over 31,000 people, a leap from the average of 25,000 each winter. Keith | :07:32. | :07:37. | |
says he cannot afford to turn his heating up after paying his weekly | :07:38. | :07:43. | |
utility bills. That is nothing in food, nothing in luxuries, and when | :07:44. | :07:46. | |
you take that out of your pension you haven't got much left. We asked | :07:47. | :07:54. | |
Keith to test whether the cold was arming his blood pressure. He did | :07:55. | :07:59. | |
this by wearing a blood pressure monitor for 24 hours. And Professor | :08:00. | :08:03. | |
Goodwin picked up some dramatic results shown by the red spikes on | :08:04. | :08:09. | |
Keith's graph. As he goes outside, there is a big increase of his lower | :08:10. | :08:14. | |
blood pressure reading, and that shows a clear effect of cold | :08:15. | :08:18. | |
temperatures. Although he is wearing a coat, he has no headgear on, no | :08:19. | :08:24. | |
gloves and scarf, and we know there are Trigger sites in the body which | :08:25. | :08:29. | |
pick up the temperature, the hands, face, the airways and the feet. If | :08:30. | :08:34. | |
they are cold, the blood pressure rises irrespective of wearing a | :08:35. | :08:43. | |
coat. Could you heat your home more? I could turn the heating up, but | :08:44. | :08:48. | |
then I have to pay for it. I can't cut much more. I have tried. | :08:49. | :08:50. | |
And you can see more on that story tonight on Inside Out, on BBC One at | :08:51. | :08:57. | |
7.30pm. Police have released more details about a man whose body was | :08:58. | :09:01. | |
found in old mine workings in Cornwall over the weekend. The body | :09:02. | :09:07. | |
was discovered at Wheal Maid, near Redruth and is believed to be that | :09:08. | :09:11. | |
of a cyclist in his seventies from Falmouth. The police are searching | :09:12. | :09:17. | |
for the man's bike and his red Ford Fiesta car. Spotlight's David George | :09:18. | :09:20. | |
reports from the mine. The area is known to some local people as Mars. | :09:21. | :09:25. | |
The old wheel made copper mine in the Valley is popular with walkers | :09:26. | :09:29. | |
and cyclists. The cycle Trail between Devon and bought Ruth passes | :09:30. | :09:34. | |
through here. I have been speaking to the 35`year`old woman who found | :09:35. | :09:38. | |
the body while out walking her dogs on Saturday morning at 9am. She did | :09:39. | :09:43. | |
not want to be interviewed as she is still too upset and distressed, but | :09:44. | :09:47. | |
she did tell me that she found the man's body in the water just there. | :09:48. | :09:52. | |
It is unexplained. What we think has happened is that the gentleman | :09:53. | :09:57. | |
unfortunately had what we think is a cycling accident and has ended up | :09:58. | :10:01. | |
where he is an succumbed to his injuries. What is unusual is that we | :10:02. | :10:05. | |
have not been able to find a bicycle, a cycle of any | :10:06. | :10:09. | |
description, despite extensive searches by police dogs, a research | :10:10. | :10:16. | |
team, and the helicopters. The police are asking anyone who saw the | :10:17. | :10:20. | |
man or his bicycle on Friday or early on Saturday morning to | :10:21. | :10:24. | |
describe them. He is described as in his 70s with receding grey hair and | :10:25. | :10:27. | |
a white beard, and wearing cycling shoes, a blue fleece and a baseball | :10:28. | :10:32. | |
cap. His glasses and dentures were found on a track nearby. Officers | :10:33. | :10:37. | |
are still looking for the dead man's red Ford Fiesta car which | :10:38. | :10:43. | |
might have been left in a lay`by somewhere along the length of the | :10:44. | :10:45. | |
trail. Today police officers investing the case `` investigating | :10:46. | :10:51. | |
the case ever has been no formal identification and they are at | :10:52. | :10:58. | |
present to contact relatives `` as yet there has been no formal | :10:59. | :11:00. | |
identification. Police in Plymouth are being | :11:01. | :11:05. | |
equipped with cameras as part of a trial to help them gather evidence. | :11:06. | :11:08. | |
The new body cameras are likely to be used by officers responding to | :11:09. | :11:11. | |
incidents of domestic abuse. Police in the city trialled the use of head | :11:12. | :11:15. | |
cams in 2006 but the programme was abandoned four years later due to | :11:16. | :11:18. | |
the costs involved. John Danks reports. A fight on Plymouth's union | :11:19. | :11:25. | |
Street, and within seconds officers have apprehended a suspect and | :11:26. | :11:28. | |
gathered video evidence. The city police were the first use these head | :11:29. | :11:33. | |
cameras as part of a Home Office trial in 2006. They were later | :11:34. | :11:37. | |
rolled out to other forces around the country. A report into the | :11:38. | :11:40. | |
Plymouth pilot scheme found there had been an 8% drop in violent | :11:41. | :11:43. | |
crime, whilst detection of violent crimes have increased by 40%. There | :11:44. | :11:48. | |
was also a fall in the number of complaints the forced to stop but | :11:49. | :11:51. | |
the need to cut costs or the cameras being dropped `` the need to cut | :11:52. | :11:59. | |
cost led to the cameras being dropped in 2010. The police say the | :12:00. | :12:04. | |
new initiative is likely to be used in their response to domestic abuse. | :12:05. | :12:07. | |
Figures for the area showed the number of domestic abuse incidents | :12:08. | :12:14. | |
are on the rise. Almost 20,000 were recorded in 2007. By 2012 it had | :12:15. | :12:19. | |
risen to more than 25 and a half thousand. Devon and Cornwall police | :12:20. | :12:23. | |
know how effective the use of video cameras has been in the past and are | :12:24. | :12:27. | |
excited about the opportunities the new technology presents. | :12:28. | :12:32. | |
If you have just joined this `` joined us, still to come, why have | :12:33. | :12:41. | |
one animal story when you can have two? From Exmoor we have the | :12:42. | :12:46. | |
preservation of foals. We'll report on one woman's hopes for their | :12:47. | :12:49. | |
future. And from Clovelly, the preservation of donkeys, this time | :12:50. | :12:50. | |
on film. One of the south west's most | :12:51. | :12:58. | |
prominent NHS executives has denied "nepotism and favouritism" in | :12:59. | :13:00. | |
getting her daughter's boyfriend a senior job. An employment tribunal | :13:01. | :13:05. | |
has heard two women claim to have turned whistle blowers about the way | :13:06. | :13:08. | |
Dr Paula Vasco`Knight, the head of Torbay hospital, ran an important | :13:09. | :13:11. | |
recruitment process. Parents and teachers say Torbay Council's | :13:12. | :13:14. | |
decision to scrap a CCTV enforcement car could put children's safety at | :13:15. | :13:27. | |
risk. Doctor Vasco`Knight is the chair of the Torbay Hospital. She is | :13:28. | :13:31. | |
alleged to have helped her daughter's boyfriend get a job at | :13:32. | :13:35. | |
the NHS foundation trust which he heads. A recruitment manager told | :13:36. | :13:41. | |
the tribunal she believed the appointment involved nepotism and | :13:42. | :13:50. | |
favouritism. They say they were hung out to dry after raising concerns | :13:51. | :13:55. | |
about the appointment. How important was it you brought the case? | :13:56. | :14:00. | |
Incredibly important. We did not think about it lightly in terms of | :14:01. | :14:03. | |
going through it, but we have made it and it's been a battle for both | :14:04. | :14:07. | |
of us. We see each other through the ups and downs, and we are pleased to | :14:08. | :14:13. | |
be here. The process has been quite traumatic process, I think. There | :14:14. | :14:17. | |
have been ups and downs, and there's been a lot of anxiety. As we all | :14:18. | :14:22. | |
know, there has been distressed at certain points, but I'm glad it's | :14:23. | :14:26. | |
over now. We're just waiting for the result, and then I feel I can move | :14:27. | :14:33. | |
on, as I'm sure Penny does as well. Both women say they were prevented | :14:34. | :14:37. | |
from returning to their jobs after they raised their concerns. They | :14:38. | :14:40. | |
were instead to be redeployed, they said. But both women refused to | :14:41. | :14:45. | |
accept that, believing they had done nothing wrong. They subsequently | :14:46. | :14:51. | |
resigned from the trust. Doctor Vasco`Knight strongly denied the | :14:52. | :14:53. | |
allegations of nepotism and favouritism. The man was not going | :14:54. | :14:58. | |
out with her daughter when he was appointed and she did not even know | :14:59. | :15:02. | |
him. She had not, she said, stopped the women from returning to their | :15:03. | :15:06. | |
jobs as revenge for raising their concerns. The tribunal was told this | :15:07. | :15:10. | |
was an important case as the treatment of whistle`blowers had | :15:11. | :15:12. | |
become a significant issue in the NHS. The tribunal reserved judgement | :15:13. | :15:17. | |
and it is expected within a fortnight. | :15:18. | :15:24. | |
Parents and teachers say Torbay Council's decision to scrap a CCTV | :15:25. | :15:28. | |
enforcement car could put children's safety at risk. It patrolled outside | :15:29. | :15:31. | |
schools following concerns about parking and driving, but the service | :15:32. | :15:34. | |
is losing money. The council now plans to use traffic wardens | :15:35. | :15:36. | |
instead. A number of bus drivers in Weymouth | :15:37. | :15:42. | |
have been on strike today in a row over pay. The union Unite says wages | :15:43. | :15:46. | |
at First Group are falling behind those in other towns and cities. | :15:47. | :15:49. | |
A Somerset pony club has launched a campaign to save endangered Exmoor | :15:50. | :15:54. | |
foals from slaughter. It wants to prove there is a market for them in | :15:55. | :15:58. | |
the wider equestrian world. It comes in light of a new report | :15:59. | :16:01. | |
commissioned by Exmoor National Park, which raised the idea that the | :16:02. | :16:05. | |
breed could be farmed for meat, like cattle and sheep, for sale to local | :16:06. | :16:09. | |
hotels and restaurants. Spotlight's Janine Jansen reports. | :16:10. | :16:18. | |
Dawn Westcott wants to give Exmoor foals a lifeline. When they come off | :16:19. | :16:24. | |
the more, they are wild and frightened of humans. She takes | :16:25. | :16:29. | |
months to socialise them. The problem has been is that it's very | :16:30. | :16:32. | |
difficult for the more land farmers to find the buyers and actually | :16:33. | :16:39. | |
present the foals in a form where people can handle them, because | :16:40. | :16:41. | |
sometimes people are daunted about taking them off the Moors, but | :16:42. | :16:47. | |
sometimes people don't know how to buy the fold, a mad farmer doesn't | :16:48. | :16:52. | |
know how to find a potential buyer. `` and the local farmer doesn't | :16:53. | :16:57. | |
know. More than 100 of these horses get culled each year, and so far she | :16:58. | :17:01. | |
has saved 18. But she says they have had big problems buying them due to | :17:02. | :17:06. | |
red tape. It is something they are dressed in a new report commissioned | :17:07. | :17:13. | |
by the Exmoor National Park `` addressed. The report also mentions | :17:14. | :17:17. | |
the possibility of marketing pony meat to local restaurants. A point | :17:18. | :17:22. | |
that will invoke reaction of horror and disgust in those opposed to | :17:23. | :17:29. | |
eating. Rex Milton welcomes the socialisation programme but says | :17:30. | :17:33. | |
ponies do have to be managed. What you have to look at is there is a | :17:34. | :17:38. | |
natural degree of wastage with any good management and breeding, and we | :17:39. | :17:41. | |
are interested in producing good stock, but we need somewhere for the | :17:42. | :17:47. | |
substandard stuff to go, so I think we are looking at a very limited | :17:48. | :17:52. | |
amount, but it was suggested on as a speciality market, it could possibly | :17:53. | :17:57. | |
be a dish that was rather speciality. The farmers have set up | :17:58. | :18:03. | |
their own group to protect their herds for the future. The Exmoor | :18:04. | :18:08. | |
pony Society has refused to comment until after the consultation period | :18:09. | :18:10. | |
closes at the end of the month. An update on the top story. We have | :18:11. | :18:21. | |
just heard in the last few minutes that the Swedish furniture giant | :18:22. | :18:24. | |
IKEA has been given planning permission for a store on the | :18:25. | :18:28. | |
outskirts of Exeter. The move follows the arrival of John Lewis in | :18:29. | :18:30. | |
the city last year and it is predicted to create hundreds of | :18:31. | :18:37. | |
jobs. Time for the sport now, and Exeter Chiefs have already started | :18:38. | :18:39. | |
planning for next season haven't they, Dave? They have indeed. | :18:40. | :18:42. | |
They're signing Leicester Tigers back row Thomas Waldrom. He's agreed | :18:43. | :18:45. | |
a three`year deal. The 30`year`old, who's won five England caps, will | :18:46. | :18:48. | |
join the Chiefs in the summer. Current incumbent Dave Ewers hasn't | :18:49. | :18:51. | |
yet signed a new contract at Sandy Park. Meanwhile, Don Armand's try | :18:52. | :18:55. | |
put Exeter 13`0 ahead at Cardiff Blues and supplemented by four | :18:56. | :18:58. | |
Gareth Steenson penalties, they went on to win 19`13. | :18:59. | :19:01. | |
But their slender chance of making the European Challenge Cup | :19:02. | :19:06. | |
disappeared. They needed a bonus point victory at least to progress. | :19:07. | :19:10. | |
The Chiefs now concentrate on the Anglo`Welsh Cup over the next two | :19:11. | :19:12. | |
weeks. The Cornish Pirates are guaranteed a | :19:13. | :19:18. | |
home tie in the quarter finals of the British and Irish Cup, although | :19:19. | :19:21. | |
they suffered their first defeat in the pool stages at Ulster Ravens. | :19:22. | :19:26. | |
They won't know until next Monday who they'll face in Penzance, but it | :19:27. | :19:30. | |
could possibly be Plymouth Albion. Despite topping their group, Albion | :19:31. | :19:33. | |
are away in the last eight against the Pirates, Leinster, Leeds or | :19:34. | :19:35. | |
Bristol. Heavy rain reduced the weekend's | :19:36. | :19:42. | |
League football by half. Plainmoor and St James Park were both victims | :19:43. | :19:45. | |
of waterlogged pitches, leaving Yeovil Town and Plymouth Argyle to | :19:46. | :19:49. | |
make the headlines. The Glovers won at Birmingham, whilst Argyle had | :19:50. | :19:52. | |
Andres Gurrieri sent off in their defeat at Rochdale. | :19:53. | :20:02. | |
A super win, and a must win game. We build it is that throughout the | :20:03. | :20:09. | |
week. We were not expecting all the other teams around us to win as | :20:10. | :20:15. | |
well, but we are hanging on in. I just thought we were very, very good | :20:16. | :20:20. | |
in both penalty areas. We got to a couple of balls in their penalty | :20:21. | :20:23. | |
area first which gave is the lead, and then we got everything first in | :20:24. | :20:27. | |
our penalty area. That was the nature of the day. They are a good | :20:28. | :20:30. | |
side. We think that's a very good result for us. | :20:31. | :20:35. | |
A shooting chance for Alan. There it is, the opening goal for Rochdale. | :20:36. | :20:45. | |
A clash of heads there. I don't think it was malicious, but the | :20:46. | :20:51. | |
Rochdale player is down on the ground, and a straight red card. | :20:52. | :20:56. | |
Chipping it into the box. Henderson is the target. What a lovely goal by | :20:57. | :21:03. | |
Ian Henderson. He scored a great one against Leeds. A chance for Rochdale | :21:04. | :21:12. | |
to attack. And that is Michael Rose with a lovely flighted chip. Argyle | :21:13. | :21:15. | |
will not be contesting Gurrieri's dismissal. | :21:16. | :21:17. | |
He'll now be suspended for the next three games. The Plymouth Raiders | :21:18. | :21:24. | |
have reached the quarter finals of basketball's BBL Trophy. They beat | :21:25. | :21:31. | |
Durham Wildcats at the Pavilions to set up a home tie against Sheffield | :21:32. | :21:35. | |
Sharks. And a provisional date of Sunday, February ninth has been | :21:36. | :21:38. | |
pencilled in for the Raiders BBL Trophy quarterfinal. | :21:39. | :21:43. | |
Now we often bring you pictures of the South West as it once was here | :21:44. | :21:49. | |
on Spotlight as we spool through the archive to find film from the past | :21:50. | :21:53. | |
which is important in the present. But what about the future? Who's | :21:54. | :21:56. | |
filming images for the next generation of programme makers? | :21:57. | :21:59. | |
Well, one woman in North Devon has set up a project to capture life as | :22:00. | :22:03. | |
it is now. The stars of the first film are the donkeys of Clovelly. | :22:04. | :22:06. | |
Spotlight's North Devon reporter, Andrea Ormsby has been looking at | :22:07. | :22:17. | |
the footage. Clovelly is famous for three reasons, the steep slopes, the | :22:18. | :22:22. | |
cobbled streets and the donkeys. Now they are the focus of this short | :22:23. | :22:26. | |
film which launches the North Devon moving image project. | :22:27. | :22:32. | |
The aim is to make and share short films which show everyday life in | :22:33. | :22:38. | |
North Devon today, so future generations can get an idea of what | :22:39. | :22:43. | |
we were like back then. Lots of people are recording video, on their | :22:44. | :22:47. | |
phones, on their tablets, with video cameras, but for those moments to be | :22:48. | :22:53. | |
preserved and shared, something really needs to be done to edit them | :22:54. | :23:00. | |
into short films and make them live a long life by putting them in a | :23:01. | :23:07. | |
place, one place, where we can keep them, look after them and share them | :23:08. | :23:12. | |
with everybody. And Clovelly proved the perfect place to start the | :23:13. | :23:17. | |
project. It was a real insight in how people live everyday lives in a | :23:18. | :23:21. | |
lovely village where there are no cars, with cobbled streets, and it's | :23:22. | :23:25. | |
really just preserving a moment in time. We never could have imagined | :23:26. | :23:29. | |
it would be such a delightful film. Really, that is down to the people, | :23:30. | :23:33. | |
and that is what the films are about, people and their stories. The | :23:34. | :23:40. | |
people telling this story are Bart and Sue Kelly, who look after the | :23:41. | :23:45. | |
donkeys. There has always been a place for donkeys in Clovelly, | :23:46. | :23:48. | |
they're part of their heritage, and they have been here for hundreds if | :23:49. | :23:52. | |
not thousands of years. It's one of the things that people come to | :23:53. | :23:57. | |
Clovelly to see. Just working with the donkeys was very difficult, they | :23:58. | :24:03. | |
were so lovely we were busy cuddling them. Amanda describes this not as | :24:04. | :24:08. | |
just a long`term project, but a project forever. Who knows how many | :24:09. | :24:12. | |
films there will be in the end? But the donkeys were the first. | :24:13. | :24:19. | |
Lovely stuff. Wright, from donkeys to David. I couldn't think of a | :24:20. | :24:28. | |
better link. Let's give you some sunshine in the forecast. We had | :24:29. | :24:32. | |
heavy rain through the weekend, but thankfully it has dried out tonight. | :24:33. | :24:37. | |
It is quite a cold night to come, and we will see some fairly low | :24:38. | :24:41. | |
overnight temperatures, possibly below freezing. It is staying | :24:42. | :24:47. | |
unsettled, quite showery and it remains quite breezy as well. | :24:48. | :24:51. | |
Typical temperatures this week will be between eight and 10 degrees. We | :24:52. | :24:55. | |
are between weather systems on the lump of cloud is approaching | :24:56. | :25:00. | |
tomorrow. This line of cloud is the reluctant one that has produced rain | :25:01. | :25:05. | |
just over the weekend, so we are between the systems. So hopefully | :25:06. | :25:08. | |
some dry weather for a short while but it's only short lived. This | :25:09. | :25:12. | |
weather system coming in from the Atlantic is fairly steadily moving | :25:13. | :25:15. | |
towards us. It might take its time first thing in the morning but | :25:16. | :25:19. | |
eventually will move across through the afternoon. Then we are between | :25:20. | :25:22. | |
weather systems, and plenty of showers around by the middle of the | :25:23. | :25:26. | |
week. Let's look at night. There are a few showers dotted around at the | :25:27. | :25:30. | |
moment, crossed the far west of Cornwall. Those will fade away and a | :25:31. | :25:34. | |
good deal of clear sky means we will seek, very quickly, the temperatures | :25:35. | :25:39. | |
rapidly dropping away. `` we will see. We will also get some mist and | :25:40. | :25:45. | |
fog across East Devon and into Somerset and Dorset, and here the | :25:46. | :25:49. | |
fog could be patchy, but where it is staying it could be quite thick, so | :25:50. | :25:53. | |
dangerous driving conditions first thing tomorrow. Some of that fog | :25:54. | :26:01. | |
could be freezing fog, and we have a warning to that and the most likely | :26:02. | :26:04. | |
location will be across parts of Somerset. A warning from the Met | :26:05. | :26:08. | |
office about the risk of fog that could be slow to clear first thing | :26:09. | :26:12. | |
in the morning. That will gradually lifted out of the way, and through | :26:13. | :26:15. | |
the day it should brighten up. I think we will get some sunshine | :26:16. | :26:19. | |
before the band of rain sets in. Once it sets in, it becomes | :26:20. | :26:23. | |
extensive. Only really clearing towards the end of the afternoon in | :26:24. | :26:26. | |
the far west Cornwall around the Isles of Scilly. It will be quite | :26:27. | :26:30. | |
breezy with the wind is fresh in from the south. They become strong | :26:31. | :26:34. | |
along the south coast of Devon. Even though we get temperatures of nine | :26:35. | :26:38. | |
or 10 degrees, it might not feel that warm with the wind chill | :26:39. | :26:42. | |
factor, and once the rain sets in it is a cold feeling day. Morning rain | :26:43. | :26:47. | |
in the Isles of Scilly, then briefly a glimpse of sunshine as it goes | :26:48. | :26:53. | |
towards the end of the day but then showers behind that. Here are the | :26:54. | :26:54. | |
times of high water. Some usable surf on the north coast. | :26:55. | :27:15. | |
The coastal waters forecast, the winds are changing direction. They | :27:16. | :27:19. | |
are southerly, then pick to force five or six and swing | :27:20. | :27:26. | |
south`westerly. `` and pick`up to force five. The outlook is pretty | :27:27. | :27:30. | |
unsettled, more persistent rain back on Friday. Have a good evening. | :27:31. | :27:35. | |
