:00:00.:00:17.

:00:18.:00:19.

First, one of the country's oldest hotels has started to collapse

:00:20.:00:33.

because of a big fire in Exeter, in south-west England.

:00:34.:00:38.

Firefighters are working to put out the blaze,

:00:39.:00:41.

Everyone was safely evacuated from the Royal Clarence hotel,

:00:42.:00:46.

But a broken gas main is making the fire a difficult job.

:00:47.:00:53.

That added to the fact that its floors and walls have given way,

160 years old and in desperate need of repairs. Scaffolding will

surround the clock for three years but at least one of the clock faces

will be kept visible. It need restoration and the good service so
