:00:00. > :00:11.Hello, and welcome to the programme, which today comes to you from Dover.

:00:12. > :00:25.Welcome to Inside Out,. You have to put up with that every day. All day,

:00:26. > :00:29.seven days a week. But the car is the answer?

:00:30. > :00:34.It has gone right up to the top. I got a telling off there. She is

:00:35. > :00:38.revving the engine, she has got a warning. The fishermen out at sea

:00:39. > :00:44.and on drugs. The job is dangerous enough as it

:00:45. > :00:47.is. Why make it far worse? I tell you what, you do not know what you

:00:48. > :00:54.have lost. And we discover the literary ghost of a hidden Dorset

:00:55. > :00:56.village. It is such fun to meet all the people and to learn the history

:00:57. > :01:08.and you really feel like you are back in time. Hello, I yam gemma and

:01:09. > :01:18.welcome to Inside Out south west. -- I am Gemma.

:01:19. > :01:30.The main cause - coal dust from power stations and car exhaust.

:01:31. > :01:35.As a lung cancer doctor I've seen an increase in cases.

:01:36. > :01:47.Public concern has forced the Chinese government to begin

:01:48. > :01:48.investing heavily in renewable energy.

:01:49. > :02:13.I do not know how it would work. The whole point of the town centre is it

:02:14. > :02:17.is for the centre. I don't see why people would want to do my Laois

:02:18. > :02:20.have a tonne to make it less pollution friendly. I can't imagine

:02:21. > :02:27.anyone along this road wanting to move. Not everyone thinks it is

:02:28. > :02:30.ludicrous. They might really caters to sit somewhere a bit more proper

:02:31. > :02:31.spreads and busy, it might not be a bad thing.

:02:32. > :02:38.However surprising it might be - evacuation was put

:02:39. > :02:49.Compulsory purchase to move people out or possibly to even demolish a

:02:50. > :02:54.property which is actually causing to open the road up. In reality, we

:02:55. > :02:57.think we can solve the problem without taking that ultimate step

:02:58. > :02:59.that we do not intend to demolish anybody's house.

:03:00. > :03:04.Camelford is one of seven areas in Cornwall where air

:03:05. > :03:13.Do you have to put up with that everyday? Seven days a week.

:03:14. > :03:17.And Andy Shaw has lived here for 40 years.

:03:18. > :03:24.Has the pollution got worse over the years? The volume of traffic is

:03:25. > :03:30.terrible. I wonder what your lungs look like. Pretty rubbish. It is

:03:31. > :03:32.difficult to have a conversation here, even on your front door step.

:03:33. > :03:33.You can not. But Camelford seems

:03:34. > :03:35.an unlikely pollution hotspot. Well in no particular

:03:36. > :03:46.order you've got, a main road, traffic

:03:47. > :03:48.lights, narrow streets HGVs and in the summer,

:03:49. > :03:50.it's even busier. That's lots of vehicles

:03:51. > :04:03.doing lots of revving. When you put your foot on the

:04:04. > :04:09.accelerator, you are sending a message to the engine, you are

:04:10. > :04:13.saying I want more power. And to generate tour, it needs fuel and it

:04:14. > :04:16.needs are. The more feel that it means, the more admissions that it

:04:17. > :04:17.creates. It is as simple as that. Mark Roberts' company has

:04:18. > :04:20.designed a device that monitors your engine and helps

:04:21. > :04:22.you drive in what's known as the sweet spot to

:04:23. > :04:32.keep emissions down. It uses Formula 1 data analytics to

:04:33. > :04:36.listen to the engine and get information straight out of the

:04:37. > :04:39.engine and communicated with you. It has be green, amber and red lights

:04:40. > :04:42.to show you where in the sweet spot you are. It gives you that audible

:04:43. > :04:47.nudge when you go towards the edge. It helps you drive in the most

:04:48. > :04:51.efficient and low emission way possible.

:04:52. > :05:01.We are coming into town now and my device is telling me that my driving

:05:02. > :05:08.is perfect. I would not expect anything less. Seems to be driving

:05:09. > :05:16.to have to read to get up the hill. to have to read to get up the hill.

:05:17. > :05:21.It has gone right up to the top. She has got a warning because she has

:05:22. > :05:24.pushed the engine further than perhaps was necessary. I have just

:05:25. > :05:31.got a telling off there. That told me. She managed to improve their

:05:32. > :05:35.driving and that is great. Whereas the majority of drivers would have

:05:36. > :05:39.just kept gunning it up the hill, holding beginner, kicking out more

:05:40. > :05:43.pollution. I have gone into the orange again.

:05:44. > :05:52.Lots of pollution as you drive the through town.

:05:53. > :06:02.Every time we have to pull away at the lights, it is not ideal. 86% in

:06:03. > :06:06.green but there is a big chunk of Gam Gale amber, 13% in amber, that

:06:07. > :06:08.is where she would have to give it a lot of gas to get up the hill. That

:06:09. > :06:19.is where the pollution is caused. People breathing in the fumes are

:06:20. > :06:28.expect to nitrous dioxide. It is starting to increase now,. This

:06:29. > :06:32.doctor as an air pollution expert at Plymouth University. Nitrous dioxide

:06:33. > :06:37.irritates the linings of the airways in the lungs. There are very clear

:06:38. > :06:43.associations with things like bronchitis in children, increased

:06:44. > :06:48.rates of asthma in both children and adults. The other one we are really

:06:49. > :06:51.worried about is ridiculous. They going to the deepest part of the

:06:52. > :06:53.lungs, they are so small, they can also pass into the blotchy man be

:06:54. > :07:04.carried all around the body. using these little tubes -

:07:05. > :07:10.and in Camelford the The council's putting

:07:11. > :07:17.together a plan to reduce pollution

:07:18. > :07:30.but all options cost and How much would it cost to buy all

:07:31. > :07:38.the properties in the street? We asked an estate agent and told us a

:07:39. > :07:42.cool ?15 million. So if that is not going to happen, what else is on the

:07:43. > :07:45.table? Everything from better public transport to encouraging cycling is

:07:46. > :07:51.being considered. Meanwhile, the locals know what they want. Build a

:07:52. > :07:56.bypass. They should've done it years and years ago. Bypasses can be

:07:57. > :08:02.costly and controversial also. Remember him? I wrote a letter to my

:08:03. > :08:07.MP, would I have achieved all this? Would you be here now. Probably not.

:08:08. > :08:13.The kind of money needed to do this sort of thing is harder than ever to

:08:14. > :08:17.come by. Certainly a bypass would be vastly more expensive than knocking

:08:18. > :08:19.down a house. That is going to cost tens of millions of pounds,

:08:20. > :08:20.something that the government would need to fund and the reality is it

:08:21. > :08:31.is not going to be happening. The town was exceeding air pollution

:08:32. > :08:41.limits so the council coughed up, spending nearly

:08:42. > :08:53.?8 million on a link road Do you think there are less cars

:08:54. > :08:57.coming down here because of the link rate? A little bit, but no. The

:08:58. > :08:59.majority comes from Exeter Road. Joan Farley lives in the heart

:09:00. > :09:16.of Crediton's pollution zone. You can see how filthy this is. That

:09:17. > :09:20.is black. That is disgusting. You have to do that everyday? Yes.

:09:21. > :09:24.The latest data from Crediton shows a mixed picture.

:09:25. > :09:26.In most places pollution has fallen to safe levels.

:09:27. > :09:32.opposite Joan's house is still recording high amounts

:09:33. > :09:35.of nitrogen dioxide - although the council says these

:09:36. > :09:51.I get the blood from my window, when I am walking up the road, I get it

:09:52. > :09:54.in my throat. -- black. It is not good enough, is it?

:09:55. > :09:59.So a new road doesn't always work out well for everyone.

:10:00. > :10:05.Joan gave me two little parting guests. Some whites from her

:10:06. > :10:09.bathroom window and front door showing there is pollution here. But

:10:10. > :10:14.frankly my lungs could tell you that. However, the council does the

:10:15. > :10:20.blood pollution levels have dropped and it is going to take a little

:10:21. > :10:21.while for the links Road to bed in. And remember that gadget helping me

:10:22. > :10:23.to drive more smoothly? It reduced my fuel

:10:24. > :10:26.usage by 8%, saving both people's lungs and my

:10:27. > :10:30.wallet, although I probably haven't got enough to buy

:10:31. > :10:44.a whole street just yet. Next night, the Southwest fishermen

:10:45. > :10:48.often make then living in treacherous conditions. Some of them

:10:49. > :11:05.are dying at sea and it is not because of bad weather. Occasionally

:11:06. > :11:12.rain. Occasionally good. This is a picturesque fishing port in Devon.

:11:13. > :11:19.Offshore, a marine accident recovery operation is underway. Breaking the

:11:20. > :11:27.water, the deck of the scallop dredger JMP. She capsized on July

:11:28. > :11:31.the night 2015 just after 3pm in the afternoon. When JMP sang, she took

:11:32. > :11:40.with a 34-year-old Shane Cooper and 22-year-old skipper Mike Hill. I

:11:41. > :11:43.went to see his dad, Mickey. At a very young age, used to come to see

:11:44. > :11:47.with me, loved everything about this scene. He was a good fishermen, I

:11:48. > :11:54.think he was probably going to be one tops is out there. The Hills are

:11:55. > :11:58.fishing family. Mickey was at sea, Mike followed in his the steps,

:11:59. > :12:03.Shane worked for the family business also. Two brothers, very much so.

:12:04. > :12:10.They talked about things and talked about girlfriends and talked about

:12:11. > :12:16.everything. And I looked at Shane as being one of my sons as he would

:12:17. > :12:21.think I was properly his dad. It was only after Shane's body was found,

:12:22. > :12:26.investigators discovered he had large quantity of amphetamine in his

:12:27. > :12:29.system. When he was recovered, he did not survive, the postmortem

:12:30. > :12:35.revealed that he also had traces of amphetamine in his body. The levels

:12:36. > :12:39.of which indicated that he probably was either using amphetamines when

:12:40. > :12:40.he was on board the vessel or shortly before the vessel left to go

:12:41. > :12:46.to sea. Again evidence that to sea. Again evidence that

:12:47. > :12:51.amphetamine have been used. Michael was a lot younger pinching,

:12:52. > :12:56.he was the skipper. Would he have allowed Shane on the boat if he knew

:12:57. > :13:00.he was on amphetamine? He would have chucked him over the side. Michael

:13:01. > :13:06.has always said amphetamine is cast as a poor man's drug. He would not

:13:07. > :13:15.have allowed Shane on that boat. He would not have allowed him on that

:13:16. > :13:18.boat, no. There is evidence to suggest that

:13:19. > :13:22.the use of drugs at sea is perhaps a larger problem than we had thought a

:13:23. > :13:24.few years ago. I'm convinced that there is an issue out there and

:13:25. > :13:29.that issue needs to be addressed. that issue needs to be addressed.

:13:30. > :13:33.200 miles of the English Channel from Teignmouth, is the fishing boat

:13:34. > :13:40.of New Haven in Sussex. This is Our Sarah Jane

:13:41. > :13:43.which is an Under ten In 2009, I filmed out

:13:44. > :13:47.in the English Channel with her crew for a story

:13:48. > :13:49.about cod fishing quotas. They were a nice bunch of lads,

:13:50. > :13:52.a close team used to working long fishing off the Kent and Sussex

:13:53. > :14:01.coast BUT today she is The drugs amphetamine and cannabis

:14:02. > :14:13.were found by the Marine Accident Investigations Branch hidden

:14:14. > :14:28.in his bunk. It is an occupation where

:14:29. > :14:30.you need to be in control if you take drugs that affects

:14:31. > :14:36.the way that you behave it's like driving a car if you take drugs

:14:37. > :14:39.and drive a car there lies madness and disaster it's

:14:40. > :14:41.no different at sea. Well it was June 9th last year 30

:14:42. > :14:44.miles off Eastbourne. A rope got tangled

:14:45. > :14:45.round the propeller. Darren decided he was going

:14:46. > :14:48.to untangle the rope by jumping He had no life vest on and no

:14:49. > :15:01.safety rope attached. It was a calm day, it was not cold.

:15:02. > :15:07.It was a bit choppy but you don't expect it to happen like that. He

:15:08. > :15:14.said he would go in and we try to talk him out of doing it. The fact

:15:15. > :15:19.that he thought he could jump into this very cold water against a tide

:15:20. > :15:24.was Tarzan like, indicating the property with under the influence of

:15:25. > :15:27.amphetamine at the time. Mark Brown didn't have a clue his

:15:28. > :15:31.older brother Darren was using drugs whilst at sea. The thirsty head of

:15:32. > :15:40.it went accident investigators told him what they had found in his bunk.

:15:41. > :15:45.-- the first he had heard of it. What did they find in his bunk? We

:15:46. > :15:52.have not found his body. He has lost in the sea. Amphetamine and cannabis

:15:53. > :15:55.as well. It is not something I was aware he was doing, not something

:15:56. > :15:58.his daughter was aware he was doing, talking to people he was working

:15:59. > :16:04.with, they were not aware he was doing it. And that is what we got to

:16:05. > :16:16.live with, a hero fishermen, a strong, great man to a druggie.

:16:17. > :16:18.The death of Darren Brown and the discovery

:16:19. > :16:21.of his drugs on Our Sarah Jane is not an isolated case.

:16:22. > :16:24.Our research indicates drug use at sea by young fishermen

:16:25. > :16:27.The Marine Accident Investigation Branch in Portsmouth were first

:16:28. > :16:31.In the last two years 15% of fishing vessel accidents have

:16:32. > :16:42.There has been clear evidence do hard evidence of drugs being found

:16:43. > :16:44.on board the vessel is that it is on board the vessel is that it is

:16:45. > :16:49.using drugs on a routine basis White using drugs on a routine basis White

:16:50. > :16:53.Sea. They should not be taking drugs when they are going to see. The job

:16:54. > :17:05.is dangerous enough as it is, why make it worse? Wide of amphetamine

:17:06. > :17:15.appeared to be the drug of choice going to the? They central nervous

:17:16. > :17:19.stimulants. They are drugs that will increase alertness, a sense of

:17:20. > :17:24.wakefulness. But some people a increase their sense of confidence

:17:25. > :17:30.most jobs, people wouldn't be at most jobs, people wouldn't be at

:17:31. > :17:34.risk to be using those kinds of drugs. There is a sense that

:17:35. > :17:36.drug-taking has become a routine rather than an exception so there's

:17:37. > :17:42.a lot of indicators coming through that showed that perhaps the use of

:17:43. > :17:47.drugs is a much larger problem than we had ever thought it was. What can

:17:48. > :17:54.the government agency that polices are fishing fleets do?

:17:55. > :17:59.We have as a regulator of real responsibility here, professional

:18:00. > :18:03.seafaring and drug abuse do not mix. Just like driving cars and drug

:18:04. > :18:08.abuse don't mix. We have got to try and get this sort of consciousness

:18:09. > :18:11.that is an unsafe practices across the fishing communities through

:18:12. > :18:14.families, through the seafarers, do the industry as a whole. I think we

:18:15. > :18:17.can make a difference but we are going to have to do this any

:18:18. > :18:21.proportionate, measured and sensible way.

:18:22. > :18:26.The fisher man's mission issues one charity that is gearing up to try

:18:27. > :18:30.and help educate and support the families of fishermen where drug

:18:31. > :18:34.abuse may be a problem. We are putting extra Resorts is integrated

:18:35. > :18:38.training for poor start on drug and alcohol awareness so they can spot

:18:39. > :18:42.some of the issues. We are also beginning to roll out a programme of

:18:43. > :18:46.drug awareness for fishermen of all ages but particularly aimed at the

:18:47. > :18:51.younger fishermen to try to make them aware of the real dangers of

:18:52. > :18:54.fishing whilst taking substances because, as we said, it is beginning

:18:55. > :18:59.to show to be a cause of accidents and deaths at sea.

:19:00. > :19:03.When a fisherman is out at sea, it is a family who is left behind. The

:19:04. > :19:07.children, the partners and be wise. It is then the government hopes to

:19:08. > :19:11.I think it is a task that needs I think it is a task that needs

:19:12. > :19:16.education and the help of particular the loved ones and the families, the

:19:17. > :19:21.mothers, the girlfriends of the fishermen to convince fishermen they

:19:22. > :19:22.are taking a huge risk by taking drugs when they go to see.

:19:23. > :19:34.Do you miss him? Miss them? Yes. I Do you miss him? Miss them? Yes. I

:19:35. > :19:36.miss them crazy every day. There is not an hour that goes by without

:19:37. > :19:42.thinking of them. I look at the stars at night and think the

:19:43. > :19:46.brightest one is my son and that is the way you try to get through

:19:47. > :19:48.things. I tell you what, you do not know what you have lost until you

:19:49. > :19:59.have lost it. You have properly never heard of

:20:00. > :20:06.each children before but every year people travel thousands of miles to

:20:07. > :20:07.visit one of daughter's most hidden villages. Our reporter tagged along

:20:08. > :20:15.to find out why. -- Britain. God once drove to East Chaldon

:20:16. > :20:21.in a delivery van like this one. Although his was a Ford,

:20:22. > :20:26.and possibly more comfortable. It took place in a novel called

:20:27. > :20:29.Mr Weston's Good Wine which was one of 70 books written

:20:30. > :20:36.in the village by Throughout the 1920s

:20:37. > :20:40.and '30s Chaldon became a magnet for famous authors,

:20:41. > :20:43.poets, sculptors and artists. It began with the arrival

:20:44. > :20:46.of an impoverished hermit. Theodore Francis Powys moved

:20:47. > :20:50.here for a quieter life. At least that's what his

:20:51. > :20:56.brother Llewelyn tells us. He took his stick from his

:20:57. > :20:59.chimney-corner and set out to find some unpretentious village,

:21:00. > :21:02.where he would be altogether Eventually he arrived

:21:03. > :21:09.at East Chaldon, which very possibly is the most hidden

:21:10. > :21:12.village in Dorset. Theodore lived here and used

:21:13. > :21:16.to hide behind bushes when he was out walking,

:21:17. > :21:20.hoping not to bump into the locals. He also planted onions in his garden

:21:21. > :21:28.to give the weeping ash Despite his odd manner,

:21:29. > :21:34.he still proved quite popular. I managed to meet some people

:21:35. > :21:37.who actually remembered what it was like in the 1920s and

:21:38. > :21:49.'30s and they remembered Theodore very fondly, being rather hermit

:21:50. > :21:52.like, he was more or less fully accepted although I think

:21:53. > :21:54.they thought he was probably a little odd as he was so withdrawn

:21:55. > :21:57.and given to solitary walks. He did observe the villagers

:21:58. > :22:01.and he did use them in his writing but fortunately since most of them

:22:02. > :22:03.didn't read his books he got away with it because not

:22:04. > :22:07.all the descriptions were very kind. Although Theodore was a private man,

:22:08. > :22:12.celebrities from New York, London and the South Coast wanted

:22:13. > :22:14.to meet him, some enjoying Chaldon It was a hive of creative activity,

:22:15. > :22:22.which also attracted visits from the famous adventurer

:22:23. > :22:27.and author Lawrence of Arabia. It was surprising how well

:22:28. > :22:31.they took it really. TE Lawrence, when he visited,

:22:32. > :22:36.he visited on his motorbike which was called Boanerges and it

:22:37. > :22:40.made a terrific racket and they didn't like the racket it

:22:41. > :22:42.made through the lanes. They pretty well accepted it

:22:43. > :22:53.but they did know it was a little strange I think that it wasn't

:22:54. > :22:55.happening elsewhere. It wasn't long before

:22:56. > :23:04.Theodore's younger brother Llewelyn followed to East Chaldon,

:23:05. > :23:07.dragging his wife Alyse Gregory He'd been diagnosed with TB

:23:08. > :23:16.and spent much of his time writing essays about Dorset,

:23:17. > :23:18.outdoors in shelters like this one. Well, I think he slept

:23:19. > :23:23.in here although It's not exactly hotel

:23:24. > :23:28.standards is it? and when he was up at the White Nose

:23:29. > :23:34.he used to sleep in what would have What's it like living

:23:35. > :23:38.in a place with such a strong link to the past in as much

:23:39. > :23:42.as you must get people coming up Yes, I have people knocking

:23:43. > :23:47.on the door and asking, you know,
