That's all from the BBC News at Six. It's goodbye from me.

:00:00.:00:13.

Taking legal action ` the community fighting to prevent the closure of

:00:14.:00:19.

hospital beds. Good evening, welcome to spotlight.

:00:20.:00:23.

Campaigners claim there has not been a proper consultation over the cuts

:00:24.:00:27.

and the plans will put people's health at risk.

:00:28.:00:31.

Also tonight, homes are evacuated in Axminster after the discovery of

:00:32.:00:34.

World War II bomb. Woman found the device in her

:00:35.:00:39.

garden. The bomb squad made it safe. Exercise deep blue dashed three

:00:40.:00:44.

squadrons of helicopters leave RNAS Culdrose for specialist training.

:00:45.:00:49.

And of the remarkable story of the pilot who escaped after being shot

:00:50.:00:52.

down by the red Baron. Campaigners trying to save beds

:00:53.:00:56.

from being closed at one of the region's community hospitals are

:00:57.:00:59.

tonight preparing a legal challenge against the health commissioners who

:01:00.:01:01.

made the decision. The action,

:01:02.:01:08.

by residents in Torrington, is a first and could be followed by other

:01:09.:01:10.

communities across the region. Campaigners claim they weren't

:01:11.:01:13.

properly consulted Spotlight's John Ayres has

:01:14.:01:15.

this exclusive report. Look around Torrington and it is

:01:16.:01:23.

clear the residents want their hospital beds to remain open. There

:01:24.:01:27.

has even been a parish poll showing overwhelming support. The

:01:28.:01:32.

campaigners believe they were not properly consulted. Louise and her

:01:33.:01:36.

family were try to get a bed for their grandmother who needed care

:01:37.:01:39.

while she had a virus. Although they tried to get her into Torrington

:01:40.:01:48.

hospital they face difficulties. None of the staff knew it was open.

:01:49.:01:53.

We pushed and pushed and eventually her physiotherapist phoned the

:01:54.:01:59.

cottage hospital, find out was open, looked her place. After that, my

:02:00.:02:03.

father received a phone call to say, does she really need to be in

:02:04.:02:07.

the cottage hospital? My Gran was given a bed, eventually

:02:08.:02:12.

come in the cottage hospital, but there were only two other patients

:02:13.:02:14.

in with her. The need for the beds was being

:02:15.:02:20.

evaluated over an eight week period. The campaign group, Stitch, which

:02:21.:02:24.

was trying to save the beds, believe this decision was already made.

:02:25.:02:30.

At the discharge point, people `` patients were being sent anywhere

:02:31.:02:35.

rather than Torrington and we believe that was to massage the

:02:36.:02:39.

number of figures people linking to come there.

:02:40.:02:41.

The Clinical Commissioning Group is looking at services for a large part

:02:42.:02:44.

of Devon. They are aiming to move away from cottage hospital beds and

:02:45.:02:49.

provide more care at home. Instead, they want the cottage hospitals to

:02:50.:02:54.

be health hubs, providing clinics and a daycare services.

:02:55.:02:58.

With an increasing pressure on the health care services for nursing

:02:59.:03:01.

teams and for doctors to visit people at home, actually getting

:03:02.:03:04.

people within a hub and being able to support people in a more

:03:05.:03:07.

effective manner we hope we will meet some of that need more easily

:03:08.:03:12.

than is happening at the moment. In response to the accusations, the

:03:13.:03:16.

Clinical Commissioning Group told the BBC their activities have

:03:17.:03:19.

followed due and proper process and that no decision will be taken on

:03:20.:03:24.

the future of the inpatient beds at Torrington hospital until a full

:03:25.:03:28.

evaluation of the six`month trial period has taken place.

:03:29.:03:32.

They said that so far their data suggests patients really do like

:03:33.:03:36.

being cared for at home and he invited people to come and see the

:03:37.:03:39.

hospital and what is going on inside the building.

:03:40.:03:43.

`` the invited. Stitch believes the process has not been conducted

:03:44.:03:46.

properly and there are currently considering a legal challenge.

:03:47.:03:49.

A quiet street was plunged into chaos today when a woman uncovered

:03:50.:03:52.

Six homes in Axminster were evacuated

:03:53.:03:56.

I was gardening between these two fences getting up bamboo trailers

:03:57.:04:10.

and IV route and so on, I was just digging on, I was just digging

:04:11.:04:12.

another stone and I found what looked like a bit of pipe to begin

:04:13.:04:17.

with, but it had fins. I put it down carefully because I thought, I do

:04:18.:04:20.

not know what this is, and I decided to call the police.

:04:21.:04:25.

Six homes in Alexandra Road were evacuated awaiting the arrival of

:04:26.:04:28.

the Navy bomb disposal team from the myth.

:04:29.:04:32.

I just thought it may have been a road accident, so I asked the chap,

:04:33.:04:36.

and he said that there had been a bomb found in Alexandra Road. So I

:04:37.:04:42.

was like, my God, I live in Alexandra Road. He said, you know,

:04:43.:04:47.

they are evacuating everyone, you cannot go back to your house.

:04:48.:04:52.

Once it was concerned that Michael confirmed it was an incendiary

:04:53.:04:55.

device, we had a 200 metre cord and, then reduced that to 20

:04:56.:05:00.

metres. It was for safety to ensure the public were safe. The bomb

:05:01.:05:03.

itself appeared to be a German incendiary device Camaro 12 inches

:05:04.:05:06.

long and similar appearance to a small rounders bat.

:05:07.:05:13.

`` around 12 inches long. We made sure the device was safe to

:05:14.:05:18.

transport. We have taken it away and we will dispose of it at our local

:05:19.:05:22.

quarry. It was the last thing Petra had

:05:23.:05:26.

expected while tussling with her unwanted bamboo.

:05:27.:05:29.

My message, really come is if you are digging in the garden and find a

:05:30.:05:32.

bit of metal, it was quite heavy, a bit like a lead pipe, play safe.

:05:33.:05:40.

Speaking to the bomb disposal squad, this is not unusual, they have found

:05:41.:05:44.

three or four of these devices in the last month. There were thousands

:05:45.:05:47.

of them dropped during the Second World War, so when you are guarding

:05:48.:05:52.

keep your eyes peeled. `` when you are gardening.

:05:53.:05:56.

There's a warning tonight that the South West's transport links

:05:57.:05:59.

could suffer because of changes to the way the government

:06:00.:06:02.

The Transport Select Committee says the new system based on bringing

:06:03.:06:06.

in private sector funding could disadvantage regions where there's

:06:07.:06:09.

The region has a well`established wish`list of transport

:06:10.:06:14.

bottlenecks that most commentators agree need sorting out.

:06:15.:06:16.

The one that may happen first is the dualling of three miles

:06:17.:06:20.

The stretch near Temple on Bodmin Moor causes serious problems

:06:21.:06:25.

More controversially, many people want to see a widening

:06:26.:06:30.

of the A303 through the Blackdown Hills ` that could provide a proper

:06:31.:06:33.

And, most ambitiously of all, there are hopes that the failure

:06:34.:06:40.

of the main railway line at Dawlish this year may lead to

:06:41.:06:44.

the creation of an inland railway route in and out of the region.

:06:45.:06:47.

Business leaders say actions like these would help get goods out,

:06:48.:06:50.

It is certainly a lot harder to run a successful tourism business

:06:51.:07:03.

in the South West than it is in the rest of the country.

:07:04.:07:07.

Prioritising spend based on the resident population does not

:07:08.:07:09.

The economy is highly dependent on mobile populations, and tourism

:07:10.:07:13.

particularly, and the transport infrastructure has to improve

:07:14.:07:15.

This Arab political editor has been following the story, this report

:07:16.:07:31.

warns things could get worse? `` our political editor.

:07:32.:07:37.

If you look at the specific situation in the south`west, the

:07:38.:07:40.

latest available government figures show that transport spending our

:07:41.:07:43.

region is the lowest in the country. If things really are going to get

:07:44.:07:47.

worse, then if you are at the bottom of the already presumably that is

:07:48.:07:51.

pretty grim news. It seems the key concern is this new

:07:52.:07:55.

drive to bring in cut `` sector funding?

:07:56.:07:58.

Yes, the report makes the point that there is a lot less private sector

:07:59.:08:02.

money in the regions outside London generally. In the south`west the

:08:03.:08:07.

private sector is pretty weak relative to the public sector and

:08:08.:08:11.

the report is also concerned that some local enterprise partnerships

:08:12.:08:15.

may be better able to compete in this new atmosphere. Adrian Sanders,

:08:16.:08:18.

the Torbay MP, who sits on the transport committee, took on that

:08:19.:08:22.

point today rather controversially. There are very well resourced

:08:23.:08:28.

partnerships and the best resourced are more likely to do well in a

:08:29.:08:32.

competitive process. The interests of Cornwall and Devon

:08:33.:08:37.

where transport are concerned is almost don't `` identical Bubba, but

:08:38.:08:40.

they are two separate partnerships. If they were one they would have

:08:41.:08:43.

resorted to compete with other parts of the country and I think that

:08:44.:08:48.

should be looked at seriously. The government briefly defended its

:08:49.:08:51.

investment in transport today. It will now prepare a lengthy written

:08:52.:08:55.

submission to that report. I will have more on this story on the

the Merlins and keep them flying. Doing that

:11:51.:11:54.

on board ship is a challenge. There are a lot more things you

:11:55.:11:58.

have to take into consideration. On the flight deck it will be very

:11:59.:12:01.

busy and also you have to do a lot more to protect the aircraft,

a rare opportunity to encapsulate in one go what you are paid to do,

She is a little baby with a very busy money. As Emily plays with APPC

balancing her nine`month`old daughter with putting in the miles

on the roads of Devon. I did not even know if it would be

:16:25.:16:28.

possible for me to get back to fitness at this age. It seemed a

:16:29.:16:31.

long way back and I was still breast`feeding at the start of

:16:32.:16:35.

April. With the trials for the 10,000 for the Europeans especially

:16:36.:16:39.

at the start of May, it was quite a battle to get fit in time. It seemed

:16:40.:16:43.

like I made it at the last minute, so I have been pleasantly surprised

:16:44.:16:48.

and it has been fun being back. This was the last time Jo Pavey put on an

:16:49.:17:03.

international vest, when she represented Great Britain at the

:17:04.:17:04.

Olympics in 2012. You have to go back eight years for

:17:05.:17:07.

the last thing she represented England at the Commonwealth Games,

:17:08.:17:09.

some things she hopes she can do again in Glasgow this summer.

:17:10.:17:11.

To actually compete in Great Britain again with the roar of the home

:17:12.:17:14.

crowd, it is something that is really appealing to me, it raises

:17:15.:17:16.

the motivation and makes it even more exciting. It is definitely

:17:17.:17:20.

something I am looking forward to. Could Emily have a mummy who is a

:17:21.:17:23.

medal winner? I guess we will just have two wait and see.

Throughout this year on Spotlight, in partnership with

:17:30.:17:37.

Imperial War Museums we are marking the 100th anniversary

:17:38.:17:39.

of the outbreak of the Great War, and tonight we have the remarkable

:17:40.:17:43.

Captain Oscar Greig was shot down by the notorious Red Baron,

:17:44.:17:47.

and was held as a prisoner until the end of the War.

:17:48.:17:50.

He escaped in 1918 and lived out his days on

:17:51.:17:53.

As part of our series, World War One at Home, I've been to meet two

:17:54.:18:00.

people who remember Oscar in later life, including Maggie Clark,

:18:01.:18:03.

There is nothing to compare with the joys of flying. To express joie de

:18:04.:18:13.

vivre to the fullest extent. It is necessary to fly.

:18:14.:18:26.

He was a pioneering pilot, flying fanatic, and the war gave him great

:18:27.:18:31.

Where one can perform antics utterly impossible on the ground

:18:32.:18:41.

and amongst scenery of the most magnificent and majestic beauty.

:18:42.:18:46.

Part of Oscar's role in the early war years was to photograph cloud

:18:47.:18:51.

formations to help other pilots, and this album is a collection of

:18:52.:18:55.

As well as a prolific photographer, he was an avid author,

:18:56.:19:06.

and the Imperial War Museum in London is now home to his

:19:07.:19:10.

This is the diary he was writing in the run`up to the time he was

:19:11.:19:20.

He says he was in machine 6997, and rights, shot down.

:19:21.:19:25.

He then takes up the story in his memoirs, and he writes about the

:19:26.:19:29.

He says, there was another burst of fire from my right putting

:19:30.:19:34.

the engine out of action and hitting me on the right ankle, knocking

:19:35.:19:39.

He said, I had no pain in my foot, only a not unpleasant sensation

:19:40.:19:46.

What strikes me is how polite they remain throughout this ordeal,

:19:47.:19:53.

because he says to his observer once they have crash landed, was he hit?

:19:54.:19:57.

I told him, I got a Blighty one in the foot and

:19:58.:20:02.

At which point he asked me

:20:03.:20:10.

me if we were in Hun land and was not pleased to find that we were.

:20:11.:20:15.

It turns out they were shot down by the notorious Red Baron.

:20:16.:20:18.

And Oscar later discovered a picture showing his plane number,

:20:19.:20:21.

6997, on display in the Red Baron's headquarters.

:20:22.:20:36.

He was held as a prisoner until the end of the war, but

:20:37.:20:39.

in December 1918, determined to get home for Christmas.

:20:40.:20:42.

And he did, but his experience left its mark.

:20:43.:20:45.

He lived out his days in this Devon farmhouse,

:20:46.:20:47.

There were cobwebs hanging in all the rooms.

:20:48.:20:54.

And he had an ancient Hoover, which he never used.

:20:55.:21:00.

In fact, as you walked through the hall

:21:01.:21:04.

you'd leave your footprints in the dust, we always said.

:21:05.:21:07.

I used to make cakes for him sometimes, I would pop them through

:21:08.:21:13.

the door, because I would put lots of eggs in and make sure he was...

:21:14.:21:17.

Well, this is a landscape that has barely changed since Oscar's day,

:21:18.:21:30.

and I am off to meet Tom Endacott, who farmed in this area when Oscar

:21:31.:21:33.

lived here. What sort of effect do you think the

:21:34.:21:37.

First World War and being a prisoner of war had on Oscar later in life?

:21:38.:21:42.

It left him certainly very nervous. He did not like barbed wire being

:21:43.:21:45.

used anywhere on the farm. One of the things was leaving his door open

:21:46.:21:53.

always, that was just I think a fear of being shut in, locked up.

:21:54.:21:59.

Canny about his flying exploits. He used to fly about three miles

:22:00.:22:03.

from here. Just above where I was living here, he had a quarry that

:22:04.:22:08.

belonged to him and he was working that quarry.

:22:09.:22:10.

The chaps in the quarry used to think, he is spying on us, so they

:22:11.:22:15.

were pleased when he clipped one of the fir trees. No damage, he was

:22:16.:22:20.

able to fly back again, but that finished his flying as his sort of

:22:21.:22:24.

past time. And, as he grew older, Oscar became

:22:25.:22:28.

increasingly frustrated with his failing health.

:22:29.:22:32.

I think he felt that he did not want to be a nuisance to anyone. And so,

:22:33.:22:40.

he died. And, you know, he helped himself, really, to go. Quite sad,

:22:41.:22:42.

really. Lovely man. A hero, in my eyes.

:22:43.:22:55.

And one who left a rich legacy for the pilots of the future.

:22:56.:23:01.

The tumuli are the most interesting and beautiful of all clouds.

:23:02.:23:05.

There are vast size makes a flight amongst them become an exploration.

:23:06.:23:10.

Every second revealing new beauties. I have today, I was rather taken by

:23:11.:23:24.

Oscar's story, and reading through his papers at the Imperial War

:23:25.:23:27.

Museum was a real privilege and honour.

:23:28.:23:30.

It is an amazing story. Yes, and tomorrow in the latest of

:23:31.:23:34.

our series, BBC Radio Devon has the real`life story of the school

:23:35.:23:39.

featured in to serve them all my days, and BBC Radio Cornwall tells

:23:40.:23:46.

the tale of the corn wash `` Cornish miners who tunnelled beneath the

:23:47.:23:48.

battlefield. Now it is time for the weather.

:23:49.:23:52.

I have to agree with Oscar, cumulus clouds are my favourite, as well.

:23:53.:23:58.

Good evening, we have had some breakfast today, but not a great

:23:59.:24:01.

deal, rather cloudy today and the showers have turned up. Those

:24:02.:24:04.

showers become more frequent overnight, so it is quite wet

:24:05.:24:09.

tomorrow morning. Be prepared for a wet journey to work, rain just about

We have an area of low pressure moving across southern Britain in
