Hello and welcome to Inside Out South West — stories and | :00:33. | :00:36. | |
investigations from where you live. Tonight, after the Padstow speedboat | :00:36. | :00:40. | |
tragedy, one man's campaign to save lives with a simple chord. Why | :00:40. | :00:43. | |
didn't you attach it as you left? Because we were too busy getting all | :00:43. | :00:47. | |
of the fenders off at the sides. Education has failed. Now is the | :00:47. | :00:51. | |
time for the law to back up the wearing of kill—cords. | :00:51. | :00:52. | |
Also tonight, the ingenious 18th—century solution to the city's | :00:53. | :00:56. | |
water wars. The trouble is, you have got to get this stuff all the way | :00:56. | :00:59. | |
down to Plymouth Dock. And, can unemployed Karl cut it in | :00:59. | :01:03. | |
one of Paignton's busiest caffs? One tomato ketchup. I do feel a little | :01:03. | :01:07. | |
bit all over the place, to be honest with you. I don't really know what | :01:07. | :01:09. | |
I'm doing. I am Sam Smith and this is Inside | :01:10. | :01:11. | |
Out South West. Speedboats — more popular than ever | :01:11. | :01:31. | |
before. And more powerful. Boats like this with a medium—size 150 | :01:31. | :01:34. | |
horsepower engine can easily reach speeds of around 50mph. It may not | :01:34. | :01:38. | |
sound like much, but, believe me, that can be pretty exciting. Whoa! | :01:38. | :01:45. | |
Boating is more and more accessible to more and more people, which is | :01:45. | :01:51. | |
great. It doesn't need to be an expensive sport. People can buy | :01:52. | :01:54. | |
small boats and get into boating. But, equally, some people come in | :01:54. | :01:57. | |
and buy some quite large, fast bits of kit straight from day one, which | :01:57. | :02:02. | |
is equally good. But with power comes responsibility. | :02:02. | :02:06. | |
Tonight, we are investigating whether those who govern boating in | :02:06. | :02:09. | |
the UK could be doing more to prevent fatal accidents involving | :02:09. | :02:16. | |
these machines. My son would be alive if the person driving his boat | :02:16. | :02:23. | |
had been wearing the kill—cord. May this year and a tragedy on the | :02:23. | :02:27. | |
Camel Estuary. The Milligan family were run over by their own speedboat | :02:27. | :02:30. | |
as it raged out of control. Nick Milligan and his eight—year—old | :02:30. | :02:33. | |
daughter, Emily, died from their injuries. Exactly what happened that | :02:33. | :02:41. | |
day is still under investigation, but what is known is that nobody on | :02:41. | :02:46. | |
the boat at the time of the accident was wearing one of these, a | :02:46. | :02:49. | |
kill—cord. This is wrapped around part of the skipper's body. If they | :02:49. | :02:52. | |
go overboard for any reason, it gets yanked off the boat and it | :02:53. | :02:59. | |
automatically cuts the engine. Heddon Johnson fears more lives will | :02:59. | :03:02. | |
be lost unless the law is changed to make the wearing of kill—cords | :03:02. | :03:07. | |
compulsory. His son was killed by a speedboat 13 years ago in an | :03:07. | :03:10. | |
accident similar to the one in Padstow. I saw that boat circling | :03:10. | :03:21. | |
round in tight circles and it brought back the whole horror of | :03:21. | :03:26. | |
Tristan's situation. Tristan was being given a test ride | :03:26. | :03:29. | |
at the Southampton boat show. The person driving the boat wasn't | :03:29. | :03:32. | |
wearing a kill—cord and when everyone was thrown into the water, | :03:32. | :03:35. | |
Tristan couldn't swim out of the way. The boat ran over Tristan with | :03:35. | :03:41. | |
the propeller lacerating him, giving him fatal injuries. It is a horrific | :03:41. | :03:50. | |
thought that he probably realised that the boat could run him over at | :03:50. | :03:54. | |
any moment, and then seeing it approach... It is very hard to bear | :03:54. | :04:07. | |
that thought. Official figures show an average of two kill—cord | :04:08. | :04:11. | |
accidents a year in the UK, with others that don't result in injury | :04:11. | :04:14. | |
or death likely to go unreported. Heddon is joining Tim Staples on | :04:14. | :04:17. | |
Fowey's Harbour Patrol. He wants to get a rough idea how many people are | :04:17. | :04:22. | |
wearing kill—cords voluntarily. It is not attached. | :04:22. | :04:29. | |
I just noticed you coming in just now. You weren't attached to your | :04:29. | :04:33. | |
kill—cord. Is that something you do often? Is it an oversight? I must | :04:33. | :04:39. | |
admit, I don't tend to have it on in the estuary when I'm doing four or | :04:39. | :04:42. | |
five miles an hour. Can I ask you a blunt question? Why | :04:42. | :04:46. | |
didn't you attach it as you left? Because we were too busy getting all | :04:47. | :04:51. | |
the fenders off at the side. That is the tricky thing, isn't it? We were | :04:51. | :04:55. | |
sorting yourselves out. You would normally be wearing it coming up and | :04:55. | :04:59. | |
down the estuary? Because it is just as important, really, here because | :04:59. | :05:02. | |
you can't tell what might occur if you go over. | :05:03. | :05:09. | |
For Heddon it is a frustrating day. More than half the people he | :05:09. | :05:12. | |
approaches are still not wearing their kill—cords. Some people don't | :05:12. | :05:16. | |
wear it out of bravado — I don't need to, I am safe in flat water. | :05:16. | :05:20. | |
There is not a problem. That is what we just heard down there. | :05:20. | :05:25. | |
While Heddon is on the water, there is news of another rescue as a | :05:25. | :05:29. | |
speedboat spins out of control in Scotland. The skipper hadn't been | :05:29. | :05:35. | |
wearing a kill—cord. If Tristan's accident, which took place in front | :05:35. | :05:38. | |
of the marine industry in Great Britain, has had no effect, | :05:38. | :05:41. | |
kill—cords are not being worn any more than they were then, then it | :05:41. | :05:44. | |
shows blatantly that education has failed. Now is the time for the law | :05:44. | :05:48. | |
to back up the wearing of kill—cords. | :05:48. | :05:58. | |
Keep aiming for that life—boat ahead of us. Back to the neutral position. | :05:58. | :06:05. | |
Excellent, well done. But boating's governing body, the | :06:05. | :06:07. | |
Royal Yachting Association, or RYA, is firmly opposed to making any law | :06:07. | :06:10. | |
making kill—cords compulsory, even though its safety courses teach they | :06:10. | :06:14. | |
must be worn whenever the engine is running. Paul Glatzel wrote to the | :06:14. | :06:23. | |
RYA's powerboat training handbook. I think there is a real danger that an | :06:23. | :06:26. | |
incident like Padstow or elsewhere creates a knee jerk reaction for a | :06:27. | :06:32. | |
change, which is unnecessary. If people do what they need to do and | :06:32. | :06:36. | |
they do it right, most of those incidents would not occur. I | :06:36. | :06:39. | |
appreciate we want everything to change overnight, but the reality | :06:39. | :06:42. | |
is, it doesn't always happen like that. I would take issue with it | :06:42. | :06:46. | |
being overnight, it is 13 years since that terrible accident at the | :06:46. | :06:49. | |
Southampton boat show, and we just had this awful incident in Padstow, | :06:49. | :06:53. | |
yet we have been out and we have seen many people not using kill | :06:53. | :06:59. | |
cords. That is absolutely true, but we need to get a sense of | :06:59. | :07:03. | |
perspective in terms of the number of incidents. Making it mandatory | :07:03. | :07:05. | |
straightaway will probably make no difference whatsoever. | :07:05. | :07:08. | |
Nick Milligan had done the RYA's course prior to his fatal accident | :07:08. | :07:12. | |
in Padstow, but Paul doesn't think the fact safety conscious people | :07:12. | :07:14. | |
don't always wear their kill—cords means a change is needed. The system | :07:14. | :07:21. | |
is simple, it works. If you attach the kill—cord — and there is no | :07:21. | :07:25. | |
reason not to — and you fall out of the boat, it stops the boat. But it | :07:26. | :07:30. | |
is a system that has been around for decades, and the mindset hasn't | :07:30. | :07:32. | |
changed adequately. Doesn't that suggest that the system itself needs | :07:32. | :07:36. | |
to change? We need to find a new way of making these boats safe. You can | :07:36. | :07:40. | |
always come up with new and different ways of doing things. If | :07:40. | :07:43. | |
something works and it works very, very well... It works if people use | :07:43. | :07:47. | |
it. You would agree that a lot of people don't. No, they don't and we | :07:47. | :07:51. | |
want that to change. We all want less incidents to occur. | :07:51. | :07:58. | |
Surprisingly, RNLI skippers don't wear kill—cords on their in—shore | :07:58. | :08:01. | |
lifeboats because of the risk they might inadvertently cut the engine | :08:01. | :08:07. | |
in a dangerous situation. Some argue the conventional kill—cord isn't | :08:07. | :08:09. | |
always practical for recreational boaters either. The reason they are | :08:09. | :08:15. | |
not wearing them is because you are literally leahsed to the console, | :08:15. | :08:21. | |
which restricts movement. On a boat there are so many situations where | :08:21. | :08:25. | |
you need to go to the front of the boat to moor it, go to the back of | :08:25. | :08:29. | |
the boat to help people in and out when you need to unclip. That whole | :08:29. | :08:33. | |
time you are open to problems. In those kind of situations it is not | :08:33. | :08:37. | |
always possible for you to stop the engine? No, not at all. Those | :08:37. | :08:40. | |
situations are the worst ones because, for example, when you're | :08:40. | :08:43. | |
mooring the boat, you are messing around with ropes and you're walking | :08:43. | :08:53. | |
past the throttle. The throttle is so sensitive that one small knock | :08:53. | :08:57. | |
and the boat is flying off in one direction. | :08:57. | :09:02. | |
The people selling this new device think they have got the answer. The | :09:02. | :09:05. | |
wireless Coast Key means the driver doesn't have to be attached to the | :09:06. | :09:10. | |
boat all the time. There is a unit inside here that it communicates | :09:10. | :09:13. | |
with and if it is disrupted, the signal, the engine will cut. | :09:13. | :09:24. | |
Time to put it to the test. Go, go, go, go! There he goes! Still going. | :09:24. | :09:32. | |
There we go, the engine has cut out. Brilliant, it worked! We'd better go | :09:32. | :09:40. | |
back for him! The Coast Key is already being used | :09:40. | :09:47. | |
on police boats in Norway. But the RYA says wireless devices are a red | :09:47. | :09:50. | |
herring, a distraction from its campaign to get more people wearing | :09:50. | :09:52. | |
conventional kill—cords. Heddon doubts he will ever convince them to | :09:52. | :09:59. | |
support legislation. TRISTAN's VOICE ON THE ANSWERPHONE: | :09:59. | :10:04. | |
Happy New Year! It is about 12:02. But he has not given up. Tristan's | :10:04. | :10:07. | |
final New Year message strengthen's his resolve. If I don't succeed now, | :10:07. | :10:12. | |
the day will come when they will see the sense of it. No—one wants to see | :10:12. | :10:14. | |
people dying unnecessarily for something that can be avoided by an | :10:14. | :10:25. | |
action that takes a second to do. Heddon started an online petition | :10:25. | :10:28. | |
and is getting close to the 100,000 signatures needed for the chance of | :10:28. | :10:31. | |
a debate in Parliament, a debate over whether it is worth sacrificing | :10:31. | :10:34. | |
some of the freedoms enjoyed by boaters for the chance of saving | :10:35. | :10:36. | |
lives. These days we are used to getting | :10:36. | :10:50. | |
fresh water whenever we want it, but it wasn't always that easy. Nick | :10:50. | :10:53. | |
Baker has been discovering the extraordinary lengths the people of | :10:53. | :10:57. | |
Devonport had to go to just get it flowing in the right direction. | :10:57. | :11:07. | |
Plymouth in the 1700s was a very different place. It wasn't one town, | :11:07. | :11:12. | |
but three — Plymouth, Stonehouse and Devonport, known then as Plymouth | :11:12. | :11:19. | |
Dock. In Dock, they built naval ships for the Napoleonic wars and | :11:19. | :11:25. | |
business was booming. By 1790, the rapid growth of its population far | :11:25. | :11:29. | |
outstripped its water supply. The town of Dock was dry. As the older | :11:29. | :11:35. | |
town of Plymouth refused to supply water to the new townspeople, | :11:35. | :11:38. | |
Plymouth Dock was forced to seek water elsewhere. It was a quest that | :11:38. | :11:45. | |
led them away from Plymouth, up over hills and high water. All the way to | :11:45. | :11:57. | |
high up on Dartmoor, where fresh water flowed then, as it does now, | :11:57. | :12:00. | |
in abundance. The problem was they had to get this all the way down to | :12:00. | :12:05. | |
Plymouth Dock. To do that, they decided to build an artificial | :12:05. | :12:08. | |
watercourse, or leat, that would provide the town's people and its | :12:08. | :12:18. | |
industry with fresh Dartmoor water. Starting north of Two Bridges, it | :12:18. | :12:22. | |
was to draw from three Dartmoor rivers and run some 28 miles | :12:22. | :12:25. | |
directly into a reservoir in Devonport. Keith Ryan from the | :12:25. | :12:30. | |
Dartmoor Preservation Association has tracked the entire length of the | :12:30. | :12:36. | |
leat on foot. So, they pulled it off, Keith? Yes! Is this the start | :12:36. | :12:42. | |
of the Devonport Leat? It is one of the starts. There are three starts | :12:42. | :12:45. | |
and three rivers, the West Dart, then this one, the Cowsic and | :12:45. | :12:51. | |
Blackabrook. Each river has a leat coming off it something like this. | :12:51. | :12:56. | |
You dam up the river and you bring up a side channel. You don't put all | :12:56. | :13:00. | |
the water down a side channel. That has to be governed, and you govern | :13:00. | :13:03. | |
what goes over into the proper river bed as it runs away. | :13:04. | :13:10. | |
The construction of the leat was a feat of engineering that took seven | :13:10. | :13:13. | |
years to complete and it wasn't until 1802 that water was finally | :13:13. | :13:18. | |
running from the moor to Devonport. It's the longest leat, perhaps, on | :13:18. | :13:21. | |
Dartmoor. It is the great gift of water into Plymouth and Devonport. | :13:22. | :13:27. | |
Without the leat they wouldn't have existed, there's no way the people | :13:27. | :13:30. | |
could have survived. They need water to live. | :13:30. | :13:38. | |
The leat might appear to follow a meandering path across the moor, but | :13:38. | :13:41. | |
it's a carefully selected route, designed to keep the water moving | :13:41. | :13:45. | |
downwards. Relying on gravity alone, it descends some 400 meters from its | :13:45. | :13:47. | |
start point to its end. What is this? This is where the | :13:47. | :13:59. | |
water from the West Dart River and leat off the West Dart come running | :13:59. | :14:02. | |
through, down West Dart Valley, around this headland where the farm | :14:02. | :14:11. | |
is. It is dropping around 30 feet and the pressure from that is making | :14:11. | :14:20. | |
it upwell here. This is the leat from the River Cowsic. So this is | :14:20. | :14:29. | |
the upwelling and it really is. ? It's features like this that made | :14:29. | :14:32. | |
the leat so successful. Feeding the leat with water from more than one | :14:32. | :14:37. | |
river ensured a steady water supply. It's an amazing bit of water | :14:37. | :14:40. | |
engineering. You get it wrong and it's a wasted effort. It is a good | :14:40. | :14:48. | |
100—years—old, it runs night and day and there is no maintenance here. It | :14:48. | :14:56. | |
works well, then! It does! From here, the leat flows down | :14:56. | :14:59. | |
toward Princetown, alongside the prison, then crosses the moor via | :14:59. | :15:03. | |
Nun's Cross tunnel. It then takes a sharp downturn at Black Tor before | :15:03. | :15:06. | |
emerging as a cascade at Raddick Hill. So, you may well ask yourself, | :15:06. | :15:15. | |
what's going on here? Let me try to explain. Up there is the Devonport | :15:15. | :15:19. | |
Leat. It comes down off Raddick Hill, drops by 150 feet, then | :15:19. | :15:22. | |
crosses the River Meavy which runs underneath here. It crosses the | :15:22. | :15:30. | |
Meavey in this aqueduct. So, why bother, when you could simply use | :15:30. | :15:34. | |
the water from the Meavy itself? Well, the Meavy fed Plymouth Leat, | :15:34. | :15:38. | |
also known as Drake's Leat, and it was untouchable. So, an aqueduct had | :15:38. | :15:52. | |
to be built. Welcome to complicated and politically charged world of | :15:52. | :15:54. | |
leats! While the leat is a marvel of | :15:54. | :16:02. | |
construction, it's also a wildlife haven. In fact, I can't resist a | :16:02. | :16:09. | |
little scout around. There is all the classic Dartmoor wildlife here, | :16:09. | :16:22. | |
like this buzzard. There is also a multitude of creatures and plants | :16:22. | :16:26. | |
dependent on the flowing waters. Young brown trout are particularly | :16:26. | :16:30. | |
fond of it, I've seen many of them darting around all day. They are | :16:30. | :16:33. | |
feeding on the insects that abound here. This is a pond skater. These | :16:33. | :16:47. | |
damselflies are mating along the leat's edge. This golden—ringed | :16:47. | :16:53. | |
dragonfly is one step ahead of them and is laying its eggs into the pure | :16:53. | :16:55. | |
waters of the leat. Once it leaves Raddick Hill, the | :16:55. | :17:05. | |
leat flows down to Burrator reservoir. Although it was | :17:05. | :17:09. | |
originally 28 miles long, the stretch from here to Devonport was | :17:09. | :17:12. | |
no longer needed after the reservoir was built in 1898. So, 12 miles | :17:12. | :17:22. | |
later, this is the modern end of the Devonport Leat. And I don't know | :17:22. | :17:25. | |
whether its slightly sad or amusing, because all that water seems to just | :17:26. | :17:27. | |
disappear down a plughole! Some of the leat water tumbles out | :17:27. | :17:37. | |
in the form of a spectacular waterfall and then feeds into the | :17:37. | :17:40. | |
reservoir. But most of it is extracted away from Burrator. And it | :17:40. | :17:44. | |
comes out here, at the Douseland Water Treatment Works. | :17:44. | :17:54. | |
Originally, water from the leat would have flowed straight from the | :17:55. | :17:59. | |
moor to the people of Devonport, but these days it's cleaned and filtered | :17:59. | :18:04. | |
here. Neil Whiter is from South West Water. It is good quality water | :18:04. | :18:10. | |
because it's come from the granite uplands, much better than if we have | :18:10. | :18:14. | |
taken it from the bottom of a river system because of all the pollution. | :18:14. | :18:17. | |
But the great thing about the Devonport Leat is the high | :18:17. | :18:20. | |
elevation, which means we don't need to pump it. It provides up to 25 | :18:20. | :18:26. | |
million litres of water a day, enough to provide for 180,000 of our | :18:26. | :18:31. | |
customers. It is amazing it is still part of the story. It is. Over 200 | :18:31. | :18:37. | |
years ago they did this work and we're still using it. | :18:37. | :18:42. | |
The leat from Burrator to Devonport no longer exists, but it originally | :18:42. | :18:47. | |
continued through Crownhill and along the edge of Peverell, Swilly | :18:47. | :18:54. | |
and Milehouse. Now, there's not a lot to show for it, but we know it | :18:54. | :18:58. | |
emptied into a reservoir called Granby reservoir and it's possible | :18:58. | :19:01. | |
that I'm standing on the site of that reservoir, so with that in | :19:01. | :19:02. | |
mind... The only connection I can find | :19:02. | :19:20. | |
between the waters of Dartmoor and Devonport today is the water that | :19:20. | :19:29. | |
comes out the tap down here. Pretty good, and a bit clearer than it | :19:29. | :19:35. | |
would have been then! Devonport is now the largest naval base in | :19:35. | :19:38. | |
Western Europe and that wouldn't have happened without Dartmoor's | :19:38. | :19:41. | |
water and the skill of the engineers that brought it all the way from the | :19:41. | :19:44. | |
high moor. Life for those on benefits in the | :19:44. | :20:01. | |
South west is tough. Tonight, we have the story of one man who fears | :20:01. | :20:04. | |
he'll never work again, and another who says all it takes to get a job, | :20:04. | :20:08. | |
even in these tought times, is determination. | :20:09. | :20:14. | |
Paignton cafe owner Mo Shoudhjae knows what its like when the chips | :20:14. | :20:20. | |
are down, Two years ago he was on the dole. But his fortunes are now | :20:20. | :20:23. | |
sizzling like a full English. You know who inspire me? Gordon | :20:23. | :20:40. | |
Ramsay. Karl Jenner is in need of inspiration and a job. Balance 10p. | :20:40. | :20:50. | |
Available balance 10p. That is all I have in my account. | :20:50. | :20:57. | |
Mo's been broke, too. He lost his last business in the wake of a | :20:57. | :21:01. | |
divorce. But he's working nonstop to make his new diner a success. I was | :21:01. | :21:06. | |
right down the bottom. When I was down the bottom I was kicked down | :21:06. | :21:10. | |
again. I had no money. I had nothing at all. I promised myself it would | :21:10. | :21:17. | |
never happen again to me.. That's why I'm doing a year and a half with | :21:18. | :21:22. | |
no day off. Karl hasn't worked for months. His | :21:22. | :21:28. | |
benefits have been cut and the debts are mounting up. This is my water | :21:28. | :21:36. | |
bill, which is £669. This is is a bill for £807.50. What's your total | :21:36. | :21:46. | |
debt? It must be running up to £5,000. There is nothing I can do | :21:46. | :21:57. | |
about it! This is Karl's fresh food for the | :21:57. | :22:04. | |
next five days. The tins in his store cupboard come from the local | :22:04. | :22:09. | |
foodbank. Everything at the moment is just one big mess, and it doesn't | :22:09. | :22:17. | |
seem to be getting any better. Would you take any job? At the moment I | :22:17. | :22:22. | |
would have to say yes, because I have literally no choice. | :22:22. | :22:28. | |
So we arranged for him to meet Mo. If someone was to walk through that | :22:28. | :22:32. | |
door and ask each for a job, what would you be looking for? I need | :22:32. | :22:36. | |
somebody really to step into my shoes, if I can. Somebody coming to | :22:36. | :22:39. | |
work because they want to work, not just looking for a brown envelope at | :22:40. | :22:41. | |
the end of the week, that's it. Hello. Hello, how you doing? Nice to | :22:41. | :22:55. | |
meet you. I was told us about your business. Lovely. I would like to | :22:55. | :23:03. | |
hear a bit more, see what you do. If you give me 5—10 minutes. No problem | :23:03. | :23:08. | |
at all. Take a seat. Thanks very much. | :23:08. | :23:14. | |
First impressions count and Mo's already got concerns. Catering is | :23:14. | :23:30. | |
very, very difficult. You have to be good for the customer, be jolly. It | :23:30. | :23:34. | |
is the appearance, the first impressions count. You have got to | :23:34. | :23:37. | |
be smart. You need to have a shave. But with Mo, it is worth trying your | :23:37. | :23:42. | |
luck, as Jo Howe found out. I came in one day for a coffee, sat | :23:42. | :23:45. | |
outside, brought the cups in and noticed it was extremely busy and | :23:45. | :23:51. | |
asked Mo if he had any jobs. What differences has it made to your | :23:51. | :23:57. | |
life? What difference hasn't it made? I have managed to move into a | :23:57. | :24:02. | |
nicer area, nicer house. I am a single mum, so I can spoil my kids a | :24:02. | :24:07. | |
bit. It has helped me as an individual, made me a lot more | :24:07. | :24:10. | |
confident. What should people do if they want to get a job? Just go and | :24:10. | :24:18. | |
ask. You are searching for lots of jobs. | :24:18. | :24:21. | |
Sending—off e—mails and getting nowhere. That is what I did. Believe | :24:21. | :24:27. | |
me, I was on chips and bread. How well I know that feeling. What did | :24:27. | :24:31. | |
you want to do? What is your experience? I would say care work. | :24:31. | :24:38. | |
Do it! You can do it. I want to stay positive. If you have a clue about | :24:38. | :24:45. | |
catering, I could give you a few hours, just to put you on track. OK! | :24:45. | :24:49. | |
Be nice and clean shaven. Yes, I have got to get my hair cut. You | :24:50. | :24:54. | |
need the money to do it, that is fair enough. | :24:54. | :24:58. | |
Its just a few hours work experience Mo has offered, but for Karl it | :24:58. | :25:09. | |
could be the break he needs. All good! Good! He is a very | :25:09. | :25:14. | |
positive man, which is what it is about, at the end of the day. All | :25:14. | :25:18. | |
good! In your heart of hearts, can you see yourself working here? I | :25:18. | :25:19. | |
will certainly give it a go! A few weeks later and the day of | :25:20. | :25:49. | |
Karl's try out. He has had their hair cut, but most of his experience | :25:49. | :25:53. | |
is in care at work, and he is nervous. | :25:53. | :26:02. | |
I have my doubts about working in a cafe. I suppose I would like to stay | :26:02. | :26:10. | |
in the profession I am in, that is where I am comfortable. I suppose | :26:10. | :26:15. | |
you like to stay we you are comfortable. Hello, Mo! Great shave! | :26:15. | :26:36. | |
Make sure you say, enjoy your meal! Enjoy your meal. Thank you. Karl | :26:36. | :26:42. | |
needs to impress. As competition for jobs round here is tough. One of | :26:42. | :26:46. | |
Mo's regulars is Mark Wakely who works in the local job centre. | :26:46. | :26:58. | |
There are so many people for so few jobs. It is very easy to get | :26:59. | :27:05. | |
despondent, but people have to employ someone, so you have to stay | :27:05. | :27:10. | |
upbeat. Eventually, that little bit of luck with land in your lap. | :27:10. | :27:25. | |
So, is this Karl's lucky day? It is all right, but they do feel a bit | :27:25. | :27:29. | |
all over the place. I don't really know what I'm doing. Mo can see that | :27:29. | :27:37. | |
his heart is not in it. I wouldn't have him, to be honest. If I could | :27:37. | :27:45. | |
have a dishwasher, like in a big kitchen, I would do that. It is not | :27:45. | :27:55. | |
his cup of tea. It is not his trade, at all. And Karl agrees. But thank | :27:55. | :28:04. | |
you for giving me the opportunity. That is all right. I really | :28:04. | :28:09. | |
appreciate it. Goodbye. But he does at least have a new determination to | :28:09. | :28:13. | |
get the job and get control over his life. I would like full—time work | :28:13. | :28:21. | |
and get my life back that is really something that I want. I have hit | :28:21. | :28:26. | |
rock bottom and I don't want to go any lower than I am. | :28:26. | :28:33. | |
That is all from this week 's programme, but we are back next week | :28:33. | :28:41. | |
with more programmes from the south—west. See you then excavation | :28:41. | :28:56. | |
