Hello. - so it's goodbye from me - | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
Tonight on Spotlight, the ongoing battles facing | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
young people needing mental health treatment. | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
One teenager's family's told she may have to be treated as far away | :00:00. | :00:08. | |
to be told that there is nowhere in England to look after my daughter... | :00:09. | :00:23. | |
That is even more of a slap in the face, I think, than being told there | :00:24. | :00:26. | |
is nowhere in Cornwall. Also tonight, a story of amazing | :00:27. | :00:27. | |
determination and generosity. The Royal Marine and his family | :00:28. | :00:29. | |
moving into a purpose built home thanks to a charity and builders | :00:30. | :00:32. | |
who gave their time free of charge. When was the insurer and skew? -- | :00:33. | :00:41. | |
insurance you? On patrol as the police launch | :00:42. | :00:47. | |
a crackdown on illegal driving. And ahead of a crucial match tonight | :00:48. | :00:50. | |
Plymouth Raiders player John Barber Junior's here to show | :00:51. | :00:52. | |
off some trick shots and answer UK or USA? UK. Really? You like it | :00:53. | :00:55. | |
here? I like it. For many years, there've been | :00:56. | :01:22. | |
serious concerns about mental health care for young people | :01:23. | :01:24. | |
in the south west. Here on Spotlight we've brought | :01:25. | :01:27. | |
you the stories of several families who've described the exhaustion | :01:28. | :01:30. | |
and misery of driving hundreds of miles to visit their children | :01:31. | :01:33. | |
in treatment across the UK. They've been told there were simply | :01:34. | :01:37. | |
no beds available closer to home. The government has | :01:38. | :01:41. | |
promised more investment. Just a few weeks ago, | :01:42. | :01:45. | |
the Prime Minister pledged to stop young people being sent out | :01:46. | :01:47. | |
of their local area for treatment. Tonight we hear the story of | :01:48. | :01:50. | |
one teenager from St Ives who may have to be treated | :01:51. | :01:54. | |
in Scotland or Ireland. It is a picture of youthful | :01:55. | :02:08. | |
exuberance, but it does not tell the whole story. Sasha suffers from | :02:09. | :02:12. | |
depression. The 17-year-old is currently staying at an NHS unit in | :02:13. | :02:16. | |
Somerset. To visit her daughter, mother Marie must make a 300 mile | :02:17. | :02:21. | |
return trip from their home in St Ives. That journey could become | :02:22. | :02:27. | |
greater still. I have been told by CAMS that they have tried to contact | :02:28. | :02:31. | |
everyone in England and there is nowhere for her in England, and that | :02:32. | :02:36. | |
they are looking to take her out of the country, basically, to either | :02:37. | :02:42. | |
Ireland or Scotland. But even then, they haven't said there is a unit | :02:43. | :02:45. | |
there are any help there that will be any different to what is offered | :02:46. | :02:49. | |
where she is now. This is far from an isolated case. | :02:50. | :02:53. | |
Over the years, we have heard from several families whose children have | :02:54. | :02:57. | |
been sent for treatment hundreds of miles away, whether to Norfolk, | :02:58. | :03:01. | |
Buckinghamshire or Kent. Nearly two years ago, the government | :03:02. | :03:04. | |
acknowledged the system was totally dysfunctional and pledged more than | :03:05. | :03:07. | |
?1 billion to improve care. The Prime Minister has pledged to stop | :03:08. | :03:10. | |
the practice of sending young people out about the cool area for | :03:11. | :03:12. | |
treatment. Later this year, we will bring | :03:13. | :03:17. | |
forward a new green paper on children and young people's | :03:18. | :03:21. | |
mental-health transform services in education and for families. These | :03:22. | :03:24. | |
measures will build on the work we are already doing to put a stop to | :03:25. | :03:28. | |
the untold misery of hundreds of children being sent halfway across | :03:29. | :03:31. | |
the country to access mental-health services. | :03:32. | :03:35. | |
The Prime Minister has promised that by 2021, no child will be sent away | :03:36. | :03:39. | |
from their local area to be treated for a General mental health | :03:40. | :03:43. | |
condition. But that is little comfort now for Sasha and Marie. NHS | :03:44. | :03:47. | |
England said it was reviewing its children and adolescent mental | :03:48. | :03:51. | |
health services, or CAMS, to secure a more balanced distribution of beds | :03:52. | :03:55. | |
across the country. The spokesperson said it plans to inappropriate del | :03:56. | :03:59. | |
eliminate inappropriate out of area placements. | :04:00. | :04:00. | |
Well, in Cornwall as we heard, there's been a campaign | :04:01. | :04:03. | |
for a special adolescent unit, led by the Invictus Trust. | :04:04. | :04:05. | |
The charity was set up by the family of Ben Cowburn, | :04:06. | :04:08. | |
who took his own life in Cornwall's adult psychiatric unit in 2010. | :04:09. | :04:12. | |
Joining me now from Truro is Ben's sister, Sophia Rose. | :04:13. | :04:19. | |
Of course, you know how much pressure these families are under in | :04:20. | :04:26. | |
this situation, don't you? Yes, of course. We were fortunate in | :04:27. | :04:30. | |
some respects that Ben was actually based in Cornwall and very close to | :04:31. | :04:34. | |
our home address, and that meant that we could visit him on a daily | :04:35. | :04:39. | |
basis, and that we were really at his beck and call, and as we know, | :04:40. | :04:43. | |
with adolescents and young adults with mental health issues, some days | :04:44. | :04:46. | |
it is really not a good day, and some days, all they need is their | :04:47. | :04:50. | |
family, their brothers, sisters, parents or best friends to visit | :04:51. | :04:54. | |
them and for children and young adolescents being cared for so far | :04:55. | :05:00. | |
away from their home, so far out of county, that makes it so difficult. | :05:01. | :05:05. | |
We know you are trying to get a specialist adolescent unit set up | :05:06. | :05:09. | |
for patients in Cornwall. Despite all the official pledges we have | :05:10. | :05:13. | |
heard over the years and covered on Spotlight, this doesn't seem to be | :05:14. | :05:18. | |
happening yet. Why is that? Yes, that is our question from the | :05:19. | :05:22. | |
Invictus Trust as well. We set up the Invictus Trust seven years ago | :05:23. | :05:26. | |
after Ben took his life, and we have been campaigning for it ever since. | :05:27. | :05:32. | |
An NHS report in 2014 marked any counties without inpatient | :05:33. | :05:34. | |
adolescent mental health facilities as an urgent priority, and still, | :05:35. | :05:41. | |
three years down the line, Cornwall are still waiting. In that report, | :05:42. | :05:45. | |
Cornwall were quite literally cut off the mat. They weren't present in | :05:46. | :05:49. | |
the report, yet the government pledged aliens of pounds to improve | :05:50. | :05:53. | |
the services. So we are in the same position of campaigning and | :05:54. | :05:57. | |
fighting, really, for the patients who are still travelling thousands | :05:58. | :05:59. | |
of miles a year to visit their children. | :06:00. | :06:03. | |
We heard there from the Prime Minister pledging more money. Is it | :06:04. | :06:06. | |
a question of red tape that seems to be the difficulty? | :06:07. | :06:11. | |
In Cornwall at the moment, the work Invictus Trust has been doing for | :06:12. | :06:15. | |
seven years, we have got architectural plans drawn up and | :06:16. | :06:20. | |
land promised to us by places like Cornwall College, down in Poole. | :06:21. | :06:28. | |
There is land available there to build, but we cannot secure the | :06:29. | :06:32. | |
funds to make that build through the NHS Foundation Trust. | :06:33. | :06:35. | |
We have to leave it there. Thank you for joining us. | :06:36. | :06:37. | |
A Royal Marine who's in a wheelchair after service in Afghanistan, | :06:38. | :06:40. | |
is moving into a house that's been designed especially for him thanks | :06:41. | :06:43. | |
to the generosity of a charity, and construction workers | :06:44. | :06:45. | |
Corporal Philip Eaglesham's home would have cost more | :06:46. | :06:50. | |
than half a million pounds, but the plot and most of the time | :06:51. | :06:53. | |
and expertise have been given free of charge. | :06:54. | :06:55. | |
Harriet Bradshaw has been to Taunton to see how | :06:56. | :06:57. | |
Remember this? Just over six months on, and things | :06:58. | :07:14. | |
have dramatically changed. So we have got the extrawide doors, | :07:15. | :07:20. | |
which you can get in and out of with the power chair, which is great. | :07:21. | :07:25. | |
Having the space to actually go around the whole kitchen. | :07:26. | :07:28. | |
Corporal Phillip Eaglesham caught an illness during service in | :07:29. | :07:32. | |
Afghanistan that causes physical deterioration, so this specially | :07:33. | :07:35. | |
designed house is life changing. I have been able to make my own | :07:36. | :07:38. | |
coffee now for the first time in a number of years. I am able to get | :07:39. | :07:43. | |
that family life back, to act like a dad again. That is probably one of | :07:44. | :07:47. | |
the most important things, and to be able to feel like a father again, | :07:48. | :07:51. | |
more than anything, that is humbling in its self, but it gets a bit of | :07:52. | :07:56. | |
normality back to life. Knowing that we now have a home that | :07:57. | :08:02. | |
has been a future proofed for Philip and his sort of long-term | :08:03. | :08:05. | |
deterioration has really been a weight lifted off our shoulders, | :08:06. | :08:09. | |
because we at least now know that we have somewhere to call home, | :08:10. | :08:12. | |
somewhere that is suitable for him to live in and gives him as much | :08:13. | :08:17. | |
freedom as he can possibly have. It was all made possible through the | :08:18. | :08:21. | |
Royal Marines charity, and some very generous construction workers. | :08:22. | :08:26. | |
There was no alternative viable solution, and the charity felt | :08:27. | :08:31. | |
responsible to provide that solution to keep the family unit together and | :08:32. | :08:36. | |
to provide a safe environment for the family to live in the future. | :08:37. | :08:40. | |
Building experts working across the region have been giving time and | :08:41. | :08:45. | |
expertise for free, with extras and essentials being paid for by the | :08:46. | :08:49. | |
charity. And it did not take a lot of persuading for me to actually get | :08:50. | :08:56. | |
the contract does involve. -- the contractors. They were very | :08:57. | :08:58. | |
much willing partners in delivering this project. | :08:59. | :09:02. | |
One of the Irish and has done everything for free on his own back, | :09:03. | :09:06. | |
so with the days he has had off, he has come in and at work on it. | :09:07. | :09:08. | |
-- one of the electricians. Thank you will never be enough. They | :09:09. | :09:15. | |
are part of our family now, and the door is always open to them. | :09:16. | :09:19. | |
It has been a year in the making, but now all they need to do is a bit | :09:20. | :09:21. | |
more unpacking. Now a round up of some | :09:22. | :09:23. | |
of today's other stories. Three people have pleaded not guilty | :09:24. | :09:27. | |
to the murder of a man whose body was found in a playground | :09:28. | :09:30. | |
in St Austell. Joshua Buscombe, Daniel Altass, | :09:31. | :09:32. | |
and Jordan Bishop, who all lived at the Cosgarne Hall Hostel | :09:33. | :09:36. | |
in the town, entered pleas of not guilty | :09:37. | :09:38. | |
to murdering Stephen Bull when they appeared | :09:39. | :09:40. | |
at Exeter Crown Court. Investigators say a serious fire | :09:41. | :09:44. | |
at the Riverside Leisure Centre in Exeter was caused | :09:45. | :09:47. | |
by a sauna heater. 120 firefighters were called | :09:48. | :09:49. | |
to tackle the blaze on Tuesday and police declared it | :09:50. | :09:53. | |
a major incident. It's still not clear | :09:54. | :09:55. | |
when the leisure centre will reopen. Council car parking charges | :09:56. | :09:59. | |
in Cornwall have been frozen Councillors said they made | :10:00. | :10:02. | |
the decision because parking charges are essential to supporting | :10:03. | :10:08. | |
the local economy. Further talks will take place | :10:09. | :10:12. | |
in the Autumn to decide whether to raise charges | :10:13. | :10:14. | |
from April next year. A Devon man who's unable to work | :10:15. | :10:19. | |
says he's facing a constant Paul Kenshole - who was injured | :10:20. | :10:22. | |
in a motorbike accident - is assessed every year | :10:23. | :10:27. | |
and deemed fit to work. Each time it happens | :10:28. | :10:30. | |
he appeals and wins. But recently he was left | :10:31. | :10:35. | |
without benefits for five months and he's now calling for a more | :10:36. | :10:37. | |
humane and accurate assessment Johnny Rutherford has | :10:38. | :10:40. | |
been talking to him. Paul Kenshole had a motorcycle | :10:41. | :10:54. | |
accident in 2009. Since then, he has been unable to work, and to claim | :10:55. | :10:58. | |
long-term income support, he is assessed every two years. Each time, | :10:59. | :11:03. | |
he is deemed fit for work. When he appeals, he wins his case. But time | :11:04. | :11:07. | |
and stress takes its toll on someone who is suffering a lot of pain. | :11:08. | :11:11. | |
I have got the doctor saying you are not fit, you will never be fit. And | :11:12. | :11:15. | |
I have got to come to terms with that. And then you have the job | :11:16. | :11:20. | |
centre saying, you are fit for work. So it is confusing. If the job | :11:21. | :11:27. | |
centre and the Department for Work and Pensions could talk to my doctor | :11:28. | :11:30. | |
and health authorities, and get the facts right, it would be sorted. | :11:31. | :11:38. | |
Paul, a former stonemason, has no other form of income. When benefits | :11:39. | :11:43. | |
stopped during appeals, he has do borrow money from his friends to | :11:44. | :11:45. | |
survive. What they put people through is so | :11:46. | :11:51. | |
downgrading. And moralising. Is unbelievable. -- demoralising. It | :11:52. | :12:02. | |
October last year, his employment allowance stopped again, as he was | :12:03. | :12:05. | |
deemed fit to work. He appealed and was told payments | :12:06. | :12:08. | |
would restart. Two months later, even with a request from his doctor, | :12:09. | :12:12. | |
he still not had received any money. After winning his tribunal in | :12:13. | :12:17. | |
January, he has been left waiting for payment. After they were | :12:18. | :12:23. | |
contacted by the BBC, the DWP paid Mr Kenshole's benefits, but there | :12:24. | :12:26. | |
was no explanation as to why there was a delay. In a statement, Lee | :12:27. | :12:31. | |
said, anyone who appeals and ES a decision has an option to claim | :12:32. | :12:33. | |
job-seeker's allowance while they wait for a hearing. | :12:34. | :12:36. | |
Cars have been impounded and drivers arrested in a major operation | :12:37. | :12:38. | |
against illegal motoring in the south west. | :12:39. | :12:42. | |
Police from Devon and Cornwall and their counterparts from Dorset | :12:43. | :12:46. | |
are running an operation, named Allied Wolf, which aims | :12:47. | :12:49. | |
Our home affairs correspondent Simon Hall has been out on patrol | :12:50. | :12:53. | |
Using computerised registration plate monitoring linked to a series | :12:54. | :13:10. | |
of databases, operation Allied Wolf scoured Exeter with its Alec Rudnick | :13:11. | :13:17. | |
eyes. -- electronic eyes. Here, an uninsured driver. | :13:18. | :13:21. | |
When was the insurance due? Have you got your driving licence with you? | :13:22. | :13:26. | |
The result, a ?300 fine and six penalty points. | :13:27. | :13:32. | |
It is very serious, uninsured drivers are something like 10-12 | :13:33. | :13:37. | |
times more likely to be involved in a serious or fatal collision. So it | :13:38. | :13:40. | |
is quite a serious offence. One of the most common offences we | :13:41. | :13:44. | |
saw was driving without insurance, with a series of cars seized. | :13:45. | :13:51. | |
There have been concerns that the well-publicised cut in the number of | :13:52. | :13:55. | |
traffic officers could having courage to some motorists to flout | :13:56. | :13:59. | |
the law. This operation is partly designed to reverse that impression. | :14:00. | :14:02. | |
What is striking about spending time with the traffic police is just | :14:03. | :14:05. | |
family driving offences you see. Here, no car tax. But the more | :14:06. | :14:12. | |
serious offences, police say, can easily prove fatal. | :14:13. | :14:14. | |
If you are involved in an investigation and you are the | :14:15. | :14:18. | |
officer that as they walk and tell someone that their loved one is not | :14:19. | :14:21. | |
coming home because of the reckless or thoughtless actions of someone | :14:22. | :14:25. | |
else, you see the consequences, and our officers have delivered that, as | :14:26. | :14:29. | |
do the family and friends of those involved in these incidents. | :14:30. | :14:32. | |
The police say operation Allied Wolf will be regularly repeated in other | :14:33. | :14:34. | |
areas of Devon, Cornwall and Dorset. Later in the programme: remembering | :14:35. | :14:37. | |
a young woman who went to war. whose name has finally be | :14:38. | :14:42. | |
added to this memorial. And we will be finding out what it | :14:43. | :14:53. | |
takes to make the best kebabs in the country. | :14:54. | :14:59. | |
It's time for the sport and there's a busy weekend ahead. | :15:00. | :15:01. | |
Natalie's here to let us know what's in store. | :15:02. | :15:06. | |
I certainly am. Thank you very much indeed. | :15:07. | :15:08. | |
Good evening. Exeter Chiefs players Jack Nowell, | :15:09. | :15:09. | |
Henry Slade and Mikele Campagnaro will be on opposite sides | :15:10. | :15:12. | |
when England take on Italy Nowell and Slade are | :15:13. | :15:14. | |
on the England bench, Their team mates who beat | :15:15. | :15:18. | |
Worcester last week are up against the Newcastle Falcons | :15:19. | :15:29. | |
at Sandy Park tomorrow. Newcastle are defying expectations | :15:30. | :15:31. | |
this season and the Chiefs are hoping not to concede too many | :15:32. | :15:33. | |
points as they try to build Jersey play this evening | :15:34. | :15:36. | |
against a Yorkshire Carnegie side that includes former Albion player | :15:37. | :15:39. | |
Tom Arscott, who was recently The Cornish Pirates play | :15:40. | :15:42. | |
on Sunday against Rotherham. And it was announced this week that | :15:43. | :15:48. | |
one of their stalwarts, Rob Elloway, is going to retire from professional | :15:49. | :15:54. | |
rugby at the end of the season. The hooker joined the Pirates in | :15:55. | :15:58. | |
2007 and played 229 times for them. He also played twice | :15:59. | :16:01. | |
for the German national side. Plymouth Argyle have a huge game | :16:02. | :16:03. | |
tomorrow against Luton who they lost The Pilgrims are currently eight | :16:04. | :16:06. | |
points ahead of their opponents. Yes, I mean, it is a big game, and | :16:07. | :16:22. | |
it is second against fourth, and a game you want to win and to open up | :16:23. | :16:25. | |
an even bigger gap between ourselves. It is a big game, because | :16:26. | :16:30. | |
you have to take three points, really. | :16:31. | :16:32. | |
It doesn't matter that is Luton or any other team. It does not bother | :16:33. | :16:38. | |
me. I know that if we are playing to the best of our ability, we can turn | :16:39. | :16:39. | |
over any team. Sixth-placed Exeter City are at home | :16:40. | :16:45. | |
to mid table Blackpool needing another win to keep their promotion | :16:46. | :16:47. | |
push on track. Yeovil are at Notts County | :16:48. | :16:49. | |
and Torquay play Sutton United. The Gulls will be hoping that | :16:50. | :16:52. | |
Sutton's FA cup exploits this week, and the sacking of pie man | :16:53. | :16:55. | |
and reserve goalkeeper Wayne Shaw, The Plymouth Raiders are one game | :16:56. | :16:58. | |
away from a massive final. Tonight they play in the decisive | :16:59. | :17:01. | |
second leg of the BBL trophy They take a 96-68 lead into this | :17:02. | :17:04. | |
match having won the first leg Before they headed up the M5, | :17:05. | :17:11. | |
6 foot 7 forward John Barber Junior John Barbour Junior, thank you very | :17:12. | :17:30. | |
much for coming in. A huge game you have to live. Are you looking | :17:31. | :17:32. | |
forward to it? Absolutely. I want to see if we can | :17:33. | :17:35. | |
get ourselves closer to a championship. | :17:36. | :17:38. | |
You seem laid-back. You think you can win key Emma Croker absolutely. | :17:39. | :17:41. | |
Why are you confident? The way we have been training so far | :17:42. | :17:45. | |
this season, the way we have been preparing for these games. | :17:46. | :17:48. | |
You take a pretty big advantage into the second leg. Will that be enough? | :17:49. | :17:53. | |
You can't look at it like that. I know we are up 18, but we want to go | :17:54. | :17:58. | |
into the game mentally as if it is a neutral game, 0-0. | :17:59. | :18:01. | |
How important is it for the Raiders to make it to a final this season? | :18:02. | :18:06. | |
It is very important. In the last championship here, in 2007, so I | :18:07. | :18:12. | |
think it will be great for us, and especially for the fans. | :18:13. | :18:15. | |
You have brought in your basketball. Can you show us some of your skills | :18:16. | :18:20. | |
while you do a quickfire round? Yes, absolutely. Tell me firstly, | :18:21. | :18:23. | |
who is your favourite Raiders player? | :18:24. | :18:25. | |
Rhys Carter. Why? | :18:26. | :18:31. | |
He is really good. He is dynamic, he gets to the right spot and get his | :18:32. | :18:34. | |
team-mates open. Who is the best Raiders player? | :18:35. | :18:39. | |
Probably John Barbour Junior! And who is the most modest! ? | :18:40. | :18:47. | |
I am! And now, some real quickfire questions. UK USA? UK. Ayew to | :18:48. | :18:54. | |
saying that? No, I love it here. Rhianna lobby and say? Beyonce? Why? | :18:55. | :19:03. | |
Just because. Weight or cardio? Weights, we don't do cardio. | :19:04. | :19:06. | |
Foxes or wolves. Foxes. | :19:07. | :19:11. | |
Why? Because foxes destroy walls any day | :19:12. | :19:15. | |
of the week. Twitter or Facebook? | :19:16. | :19:19. | |
Facebook. The or Plymouth Argyle? Liverpool, no doubt. Remember where | :19:20. | :19:25. | |
you are at the moment, though! Tignous author mean you? | :19:26. | :19:30. | |
Pettini. And finally, the most important | :19:31. | :19:35. | |
question of all, puppies or kittens? Puppies definitely. Well, thank you | :19:36. | :19:38. | |
for being frank and honest, and good luck tonight. | :19:39. | :19:45. | |
You got me on that one! What a good sport! Even if you are | :19:46. | :19:49. | |
in the south-west, you can watch that much live on the BBC sport | :19:50. | :19:55. | |
website from 7:30pm tonight. How tall is he? Six foot seven? | :19:56. | :20:01. | |
Yes. I am glad I did not have to stand next to him! | :20:02. | :20:02. | |
A lovely, lovely guy. Now, Kitty Trevelyan was just | :20:03. | :20:08. | |
seventeen years old when she left the Dartmoor village of Meavy | :20:09. | :20:11. | |
and went to war. She signed up as a volunteer to work | :20:12. | :20:13. | |
in army canteens in France during the First World War, | :20:14. | :20:16. | |
but became ill while she Now, on the hundredth | :20:17. | :20:18. | |
anniversary of her death, Kitty's name has been added | :20:19. | :20:21. | |
to the war memorial in her home It is 1916, and on the battlefields | :20:22. | :20:40. | |
of Europe, history is being written. But only recently are we discovering | :20:41. | :20:44. | |
the stories of people like Kate Trevelyan, who left Dartmoor at the | :20:45. | :20:47. | |
age of 16 to join the war effort. She joined the voluntary detachment | :20:48. | :20:52. | |
service, for which she was not old enough. But she went as a civilian | :20:53. | :20:56. | |
worker. I think she would be working in the mobile canteens, serving tea | :20:57. | :21:02. | |
and buns and that sort of thing. It was horrendous. They were on top of | :21:03. | :21:07. | |
cliffs, and massive gales of wind coming in. The tented hospitals were | :21:08. | :21:12. | |
blowing down on a regular basis, and I should think it was fairly | :21:13. | :21:17. | |
uncomfortable. She was 19. She caught measles, and then she got | :21:18. | :21:22. | |
pneumonia, and suddenly passed away. Sue's campaign has led to Kitted's | :21:23. | :21:27. | |
name being added to the war memorial in Mewavy where she grew up. The | :21:28. | :21:33. | |
house she lived in was just up the road, and you can imagine her | :21:34. | :21:38. | |
footsteps all those years ago. It is about writing a wrong, really, | :21:39. | :21:41. | |
honouring someone whose name should have been on that memorial many | :21:42. | :21:45. | |
years ago. It is wonderful, wonderful. She was | :21:46. | :21:51. | |
such a mighty girl, you know, and she should not be forgotten, and | :21:52. | :21:56. | |
well, non-them should. They deserve to be remembered. | :21:57. | :21:59. | |
A memorial service for kitty will be held on the green in Meavy on | :22:00. | :22:01. | |
Sunday. John Danks with that report | :22:02. | :22:03. | |
about Kitty Trevelyan. Now, it's currently the award | :22:04. | :22:08. | |
season and we've all heard of the Baftas and the Oscars, | :22:09. | :22:11. | |
but what about the Prima Doners? It's not an award for the most | :22:12. | :22:13. | |
excruciating acceptance speech, but for the country's | :22:14. | :22:16. | |
best doner kebab. And two of our own eateries | :22:17. | :22:19. | |
are in the running for a prize. Spotlight's very own expert | :22:20. | :22:24. | |
in take-away food, John Ayres, has been seeing how good | :22:25. | :22:27. | |
these kebabs really are. These two shops are among the | :22:28. | :23:03. | |
country's elite, so what is it that makes their kebabs standout? | :23:04. | :23:09. | |
It is all made home-made, not like other takeaways. That is why we are | :23:10. | :23:13. | |
so different from the other kebab shop 's. | :23:14. | :23:18. | |
This is our handmade kebabs, and this is the big post, our delicious, | :23:19. | :23:25. | |
juicy, Donna kebabs. We make a small chilli pepper, and a | :23:26. | :23:37. | |
green pepper on it, carrot on it, salary on it, and then, we put | :23:38. | :23:45. | |
proper Turkish spices on. This is made up with a 61% lamb, -- | :23:46. | :24:00. | |
16% lamb, 16% beef, and also, spices and herbs. | :24:01. | :24:04. | |
The good old Donna kebabs is often maligned. Some critics say it is | :24:05. | :24:09. | |
best consumed through the haze of a drunken night, but it is actually | :24:10. | :24:12. | |
delicious, and if you look at it, it has a lot of vegetable in as well, | :24:13. | :24:17. | |
which many takeaway foods do not. I highly recommend it for dinner, or | :24:18. | :24:23. | |
after a night out! The two shops will find out on | :24:24. | :24:27. | |
Sunday if they are the best in their categories at the British Give Abba | :24:28. | :24:35. | |
Awards in London. -- British Q Babb Awards. | :24:36. | :24:38. | |
See, it is part of your five a day! I did not realise it was so | :24:39. | :24:40. | |
good for you! And now, time for the weather. | :24:41. | :24:43. | |
How does look, David? Not that great. I suppose on the +, | :24:44. | :24:51. | |
it is milder, but also breezy again, and we are likely to see some | :24:52. | :24:55. | |
outbreaks of rain. We have had a lovely day today. This was the | :24:56. | :24:59. | |
sunshine in Cornwall. Some fantastic pictures from some of our Weather | :25:00. | :25:05. | |
Watchers. This one came from Cornish Cowboy, on the south coast. Like how | :25:06. | :25:11. | |
calm the seas are in this other picture compare to what we saw | :25:12. | :25:14. | |
yesterday. The forecast for this weekend is unfortunately for less | :25:15. | :25:18. | |
good sky and generally more cloud around. A mild weekend, breezy, and | :25:19. | :25:24. | |
some outbreaks of rain at times, particularly tomorrow afternoon and | :25:25. | :25:27. | |
later in the day on Sunday. This is the setup. We have lost the | :25:28. | :25:33. | |
high-pressure, and that area gave us some lovely conditions, now across | :25:34. | :25:40. | |
France and parts of Germany. This wind also increases the strength and | :25:41. | :25:46. | |
increases the chance of rain, and by afternoon, we could end up quite | :25:47. | :25:50. | |
wet. By Sunday, at least for the start, more dry, then this of cloud | :25:51. | :25:54. | |
and rain will arrive to bring wet weather into evening. No letup by | :25:55. | :25:59. | |
Monday. A mix of sunshine, showers, and quite blustery westerly at the | :26:00. | :26:07. | |
same time. Some drizzle overnight tonight, but hopefully some breaks | :26:08. | :26:10. | |
in the cloud. In general, rather cloudy. Before that cloud has turned | :26:11. | :26:16. | |
out, this was earlier today on the south coast of Devon, where it has | :26:17. | :26:21. | |
been a beautiful day. Unfortunately, out at sea, perhaps not such good | :26:22. | :26:26. | |
news, as there is a humpback whale. We're not quite sure why it is so | :26:27. | :26:30. | |
close to the shore. It is unusual to see humpback whale is at this time | :26:31. | :26:35. | |
of year so close to the land. But as you can see, calm seas and the south | :26:36. | :26:38. | |
coast, and hopefully that whale will make its way into deeper water to | :26:39. | :26:44. | |
safety. Calm conditions here, a lovely end to the day, and cloud is | :26:45. | :26:48. | |
coming in, and with a fuse was a drizzle, temperatures may fall to | :26:49. | :26:52. | |
5-6, but come back up again as the cloud rolls in. That gives us a | :26:53. | :26:55. | |
rather grey start to the day tomorrow. Spits of light rain or | :26:56. | :27:01. | |
drizzle in the wind at first, but by afternoon, more widespread and | :27:02. | :27:06. | |
persistent rain. It will also be blustery, with winds strong to gale | :27:07. | :27:10. | |
force from the south-west at times. But it is mild, temperatures at | :27:11. | :27:14. | |
10-11. The forecast for the Isles of Scilly is windy with patchy, light | :27:15. | :27:16. | |
rain, and these other of high water. Have a nice weekend. | :27:17. | :27:30. | |
Thank you very much. And that is all from us. We will be back throughout | :27:31. | :27:33. | |
the weekend. Clary is here at tea-time tomorrow, and will be back | :27:34. | :27:37. | |
again at 6:30pm on Monday. Have a good weekend. Goodbye. | :27:38. | :27:52. | |
Cake-a-bake? Yeah. What is that? | :27:53. | :27:55. |
