Welcome to Inside Out. Park yourself on the sofa, here is what

:00:06.:00:09.

is coming up. I go undercover to meet the South's controversial car

:00:09.:00:15.

clamper. Are you Mr White? How can you

:00:15.:00:22.

justify �600? Disgusting the amount of money he charges. You cannot

:00:22.:00:28.

just take my car. Go on then. Dressing up for a taste of the 16th

:00:28.:00:32.

century. We almost felt we were there. Instead of being dull

:00:32.:00:37.

history, it is real. Keeping your mind active and getting a feel for

:00:37.:00:39.

the past. I am sure you'll wander round and

:00:39.:00:41.

let them feel the jewels. Not those jewels.

:00:41.:00:50.

And the most difficult decision He was the life and soul of the

:00:51.:00:55.

party, next rugby player, alpha male. One man's fight to change the

:00:55.:01:01.

law on assisted suicide. I can't see how anybody would think is

:01:01.:01:05.

right to take his own life has been taken away. Some days this life

:01:05.:01:12.

gets too much for me had a break down and cry. This is Inside Out

:01:12.:01:22.
:01:22.:01:28.

Stop at any private car park these days and you may well find a sign

:01:28.:01:34.

warning that you could be clamped. Here in the Southampton area one

:01:34.:01:39.

firm seems to be everywhere, White's Car Park Solutions. Its

:01:39.:01:43.

boss Jason White has certainly hit the headlines. In the past angry

:01:43.:01:48.

motorists have even beaten him up. Most recently in Winchester he was

:01:48.:01:57.

threatened with a meat cleaver. So what is it that makes them so

:01:57.:02:01.

angry? After all, he's only doing his job. All these motorists have

:02:01.:02:05.

been clamped by Mr White's company and what makes their blood boil is

:02:05.:02:12.

how the costs can rack up, especially if you are towed away.

:02:13.:02:20.

We were talking �800, you have to pay �420. Tough, �400. �564 in

:02:20.:02:27.

total. �684, 40 p. We thought we'd have a look at the way he operates.

:02:27.:02:31.

We did ask Mr White if we could come out clamping with him, but he

:02:31.:02:34.

declined, so I'm going to go undercover. Using possibly one of

:02:34.:02:44.
:02:44.:02:45.

the worst disguises ever seen on TV, roller skating accident. Nasty. It

:02:45.:02:52.

appears young or old, crutches or no crutches, anyone's fair game.

:02:52.:02:56.

It was an area I have parked in lots of times before. I visit a

:02:57.:03:03.

friend there. I had no idea it had been made a prohibited area so

:03:03.:03:06.

didn't look for any signs or anything like that. Then when I

:03:07.:03:12.

came back later the car had gone. I thought it had been stolen. It was

:03:12.:03:15.

a big shock. 90-year-old Dennis Wilson wasn't

:03:15.:03:18.

displaying his disability badge, when he parked on a site patrolled

:03:18.:03:21.

by Whites. His car was seized, and because it was a Friday, they said

:03:21.:03:29.

he couldn't collect it till after the weekend. And the total bill?

:03:29.:03:38.

By the Monday it was �300 for towing away, 184 the clamp. Four

:03:38.:03:45.

days' storage at �42. Then on top of that, you are virtually a

:03:45.:03:48.

obliged to pay by credit card because not many people can lay

:03:48.:03:53.

their hands on �800 on the spur of the moment. And they charge 5% of

:03:53.:04:01.

the total. So my total I paid was �680.40. That's a tidy sum! Now

:04:01.:04:06.

we're on our way to a car park to get clamped. So what are the rules

:04:06.:04:09.

on this business? There's never a car parking expert when you need

:04:09.:04:16.

one. What Patrick Troy doesn't know about parking isn't worth knowing.

:04:16.:04:25.

Clamping on private land is an unregulated industry. We have a

:04:25.:04:34.

code of practice our members have to comply with. But it is voluntary

:04:34.:04:37.

and company you are investigating isn't a member. So Whites, by not

:04:37.:04:40.

signing up, don't have to keep to the guidelines. OK, so what are

:04:40.:04:43.

their rules? Let's park somewhere we shouldn't. A private staff car

:04:43.:04:47.

park in Eastleigh in Hampshire. Sorry, Blockbuster. While my

:04:47.:04:52.

pretend sister and I go off shopping this happens. Been

:04:52.:04:58.

clamped? You are joking. How much will it cost? Her 180. 180 quid?

:04:58.:05:08.
:05:08.:05:08.

Yes. For pudding a Camborne? Yes. - - for put in a clamp on. To make

:05:08.:05:12.

matters worse, if I don't pay up, this guy tells me he will summon

:05:12.:05:16.

the tow truck and take my car away. How will I get �180? Not our

:05:16.:05:19.

responsibility. If we can't get the money? You will be towed. Cos it

:05:19.:05:23.

will cost it more to get it towed, won't it? Cost you �300 if I have

:05:23.:05:26.

to call the tow truck. �300! That's ridiculous. My wallet's emptying

:05:26.:05:30.

fast. �180 for the clamp release and on top of that a possible �300

:05:30.:05:34.

tow-away fee. It seems there's nothing I can do it about it. It

:05:34.:05:37.

wasn't reasonable and by any definition that was excessive.

:05:37.:05:41.

we say in our code is that you either have a clamp release fee or

:05:41.:05:45.

you have a towaway fee, you can't charge both. If you are removing

:05:46.:05:49.

the vehicle after you've clamped it. There should be one charge it is

:05:49.:05:53.

meant to be a deterrant, and it's a deterrent to the motorist to park

:05:53.:05:56.

in there in the first place. It shouldn't be excessive and it

:05:56.:05:59.

shouldn't be unreasonable. After a fake trip to the cash point

:05:59.:06:04.

I pretend I can't get the �180. The car therefore will be taken to the

:06:04.:06:09.

compound. But then there's the matter of getting it back. And then

:06:09.:06:15.

do I go there and get the car? our compound, he deals with it in

:06:15.:06:19.

other ways. What do you mean other ways? We'll, he'll bring it back.

:06:19.:06:23.

Now I know the Whites compound is just a few minutes away, but I'm

:06:23.:06:26.

told I can't collect my car. They'll have to deliver it to me,

:06:26.:06:32.

and guess what? That's another 50 quid. He'll charge for delivery.

:06:32.:06:37.

Well I don't want him to deliver. want to come and pick it up. You

:06:37.:06:40.

are saying that if it does get towed back to the compound I can't

:06:40.:06:45.

come and pay the money tomorrow. Overnight charges I'll get charged

:06:45.:06:49.

as well and then on top of that he's going to say I'm going to you

:06:49.:06:53.

and that will cost me money. I can't come and get it. You're just

:06:53.:06:55.

making it up. Now there's no going back on the

:06:55.:06:58.

fact that I've parked somewhere I shouldn't. But imagine what's it's

:06:58.:07:01.

like if you haven't parked wrongly in the first place and you still

:07:01.:07:04.

get clamped. Like Holly who says she'd simply parked in her own

:07:04.:07:13.

parking space outside her flat. knew my pen it was displayed, I was

:07:13.:07:17.

in the right car-park, the right space -- my permit. It wouldn't be

:07:17.:07:21.

out of date for another six months or so. She says White's told her

:07:21.:07:25.

the permit was out of date and she had to pay up. Holly took the

:07:25.:07:28.

matter to the county court and White's were told to pay back the

:07:28.:07:32.

clamping fee. To date she hasn't received a penny. Mark says he was

:07:32.:07:36.

also wrongly clamped. He claims it was a case of an overzealous

:07:36.:07:45.

clamper operating in a neighbouring car park. Next door's premises have

:07:45.:07:48.

clamping zone and I asked him to release the clamp but he phoned his

:07:48.:07:52.

office and was told he wasn't allowed to until the fee was paid.

:07:52.:07:56.

So Mark decided to take matters into his own hands. I got an angle

:07:56.:08:03.

grinder from my premises and cut if off.

:08:04.:08:08.

But you got in trouble for doing that. I got arrested for criminal

:08:08.:08:10.

damage and taken to court. On second court appearance I pleaded

:08:11.:08:17.

not guilty. Mr White and his merry men didn't turn up and the case was

:08:17.:08:25.

Meanwhile the boss himself Jason White has arrived and is preparing

:08:25.:08:35.
:08:35.:08:37.

to take my wheels away. And it's all going to cost me �614. Are you

:08:37.:08:42.

Mr wide? How can you justify �600? Doesn't cost you �600 to run a tow

:08:42.:08:49.

truck. Government doesn't say �600. That is rubbish. White's signs do

:08:49.:08:53.

list all the charges he's come up with so he could say we've all been

:08:53.:08:59.

warned. But there's a lot of charges, and a lot of small print.

:08:59.:09:09.

Aren't you going to give me paperwork? You can't just take my

:09:09.:09:15.

car. The law's not clear enough. I'm in the wrong straight away.

:09:15.:09:20.

It's disgusting the amount of money he charges. Disgusting the way he

:09:20.:09:28.

conducts his business. If you don't pay it there and then. Looking at

:09:28.:09:34.

hundreds of pounds. Not fair at all. The next day at a time decided by

:09:34.:09:37.

Whites Car Park solutions, I'm told to return to Blockbuster car park.

:09:37.:09:44.

Our man wants his cash, but there's no sign of my car. You got to pay

:09:44.:09:48.

me now, sign a receipt and then he'll bring it back. Until you hand

:09:48.:09:52.

it over to me that vehicle's not coming back. Look there's the cash,

:09:52.:09:57.

I need it in my hand I need to take the payment. Even though I'm

:09:57.:10:05.

showing you the money I cant see my car. I need to take the payment.

:10:05.:10:10.

It's the way he does it, mate. a joke. You guys get funnier every

:10:10.:10:16.

time. So I hand over the �600. And Mr White rings to check the

:10:16.:10:26.
:10:26.:10:28.

transaction is complete. Yeah, all While he writes the receipt it all

:10:28.:10:33.

starts to come out. This clamper seems to have a heart. I really do

:10:33.:10:37.

feel sorry for people really, but if I felt that sorry why would I do

:10:37.:10:43.

the job. But I genuinely do feel sorry for people. The worst part is

:10:43.:10:53.
:10:53.:10:53.

taking money. I hate taking money off people I really do. I earn good

:10:53.:11:02.

money every month. Heart to heart over, it's back to business. Cue Mr

:11:02.:11:06.

White and my car. Now the small matter of getting my car off his

:11:06.:11:14.

truck. Do you want to drive it off? I can't drive. I've got to wait for

:11:14.:11:21.

my sister. In the end we push it off. How do you come up with your

:11:22.:11:25.

fees? You need to speak with the government about that. They

:11:25.:11:35.
:11:35.:11:35.

authorise to do this. The fees. government? Yes. So if I want to

:11:35.:11:38.

complain about the fees. You need to write to us or the SIA. Who are

:11:38.:11:45.

they? They regulate us. In fact, it's the SIA, the Security Industry

:11:45.:11:48.

Authority, who issue clampers like Mr White with their licences, but

:11:48.:11:50.

they won't investigate individual complaints. And as for Mr White's

:11:51.:11:53.

claim that the government authorises the fees, that's rubbish.

:11:53.:11:57.

In fact, next year there's expected to be a new law that bans clamping

:11:57.:12:01.

on private land altogether. We did ask Mr White for an interview but

:12:01.:12:06.

he didn't take us up on our offer. So for now he's at liberty to carry

:12:06.:12:09.

on clamping and charging fees that the British Parking Association

:12:09.:12:19.
:12:19.:12:19.

says considerably exceed it's guidelines. This isn't about

:12:19.:12:22.

extortion this is about managing private land and clamping is simply

:12:22.:12:25.

a means of managing private land. It shouldn't be seen as a way of

:12:25.:12:29.

making lots of money out of people or of extorting money out of people.

:12:29.:12:32.

Seven months after he was clamped World War II veteran Mr Wilson is

:12:32.:12:34.

still fuming. The man is absolutely beneath

:12:34.:12:43.

contempt. A lot of my friends were killed fighting for the freedom

:12:43.:12:53.
:12:53.:12:59.

that Jason White uses, misuses to If you think you have been unfairly

:12:59.:13:05.

treated, get in touch. Next, where we you when they raised the Mary

:13:05.:13:12.

Rose? It was 11th October, 1982. And Monday, I believe. He would

:13:12.:13:15.

have full back then nearly 30 years on she would still be changing

:13:15.:13:24.

Today a group of visually impaired people from Waterlooville are going

:13:24.:13:27.

back in time. Henry, are you going to get dressed now? Artefacts from

:13:27.:13:30.

Henry VIII's warship, the Mary Rose, along with replicas, are giving

:13:30.:13:33.

this place a Tudor makeover. You be the doctor, Brian. This is a scheme

:13:33.:13:36.

that channels the magic of the past into contemporary lives, by taking

:13:36.:13:39.

historic relics out of the museum. I think they're meant to be tied,

:13:39.:13:44.

let me put your arm. I have incorrectly untied them. Are you

:13:44.:13:48.

managing? In your transformation process? I don't think Anne Boleyn

:13:48.:13:52.

lived as long as you. Well done, Henry, take a seat. I will go and

:13:52.:13:56.

see if I can find a codpiece. of people don't understand how the

:13:56.:13:59.

men were living, so by me taking the artefacts out to them, they can

:13:59.:14:02.

start to understand and handle the pieces they were using on-board the

:14:02.:14:05.

ship. And are there specific groups you target? Yes. There are special

:14:05.:14:08.

needs groups like the stroke people, recovering from a stroke. Visually

:14:08.:14:11.

impaired, day centres, any group who would really benefit by me

:14:11.:14:18.

going to them, rather than them and to the museum. Let's touch a bit of

:14:18.:14:22.

wood, from the Mary Rose. Shall we? Just to get into it. Let's feel

:14:22.:14:25.

some of the original wood from the Mary Rose. So the pieces of wood

:14:25.:14:29.

you are holding now, this would be at least 100 years older than the

:14:29.:14:32.

ship. This piece of wood going around would be about 600 years old.

:14:32.:14:35.

So nearly as old as me. Here at the Mary Rose Museum in

:14:35.:14:38.

Portsmouth the hull of the once great flagship now rests in a

:14:38.:14:41.

special drydock where she is 29 years into a conservation programme.

:14:41.:14:50.

And her contents bring real insight into life during the Tudor period.

:14:50.:14:54.

I think one of the reasons why the Mary Rose has such an incredible

:14:54.:14:57.

endurance appeal is that she gives us a real glimpse into the choose

:14:57.:15:00.

your world, as it once was, on board the ship nearly 500 years ago.

:15:00.:15:04.

Just take a look at some of these. Beautiful artefacts. This is a

:15:04.:15:09.

pewter plate. OK, it has seen better days, but it gives you a

:15:09.:15:12.

real idea that this was what the officer used when in comparison

:15:12.:15:15.

with them all humble members of the group would have eaten from these

:15:15.:15:25.
:15:25.:15:30.

wooden bowls. One man who is directly inspired by the history of

:15:30.:15:34.

the Mary Rose is Neil Clements. of these pieces you can see on the

:15:34.:15:37.

table are genuine pieces of the Mary Rose. These are all over 500

:15:37.:15:40.

years old. He was a member of the prestigious Royal Navy Raiders

:15:40.:15:42.

Freefall Parachute Display Team when during a training session he

:15:42.:15:46.

faced his worst nightmare. As I had to steer the parachute away from

:15:46.:15:49.

avoiding a collision with somebody else, we got out the plane, the

:15:49.:15:52.

parachute collapsed at 400 foot above the ground so I felt at 80

:15:52.:15:55.

miles an hour and hit the ground and broke my neck, broke my leg,

:15:55.:15:58.

shattered my pelvis, and a crash helmet I was wearing pierced my

:15:58.:16:08.
:16:08.:16:09.

skull and gave me a brain injury. I was left in a coma for up to 12

:16:09.:16:17.

weeks afterwards, totally unconscious. The last thing I can

:16:17.:16:20.

remember is going to see my mother just before the accident happened,

:16:20.:16:24.

a couple of days beforehand, to see my mum at Mother's Day. This

:16:24.:16:31.

cannonball here was fired from the iron guns on board the Mary Rose.

:16:31.:16:36.

That is handcarved from a limestone called Kentish rag stone.

:16:36.:16:39.

Eight years on, and after painstaking therapy Neil has become

:16:39.:16:45.

part of the Mary Rose team. I volunteer here at the Mary Rose

:16:45.:16:49.

Museum giving presentations every Monday. Basically, it helps improve

:16:49.:16:55.

my speech, and my memory. My short- term memory was very bad. That has

:16:55.:17:00.

improved. My mobility has now improved as well. I have to travel

:17:00.:17:05.

from where I live over to here. So that has helped me as well. This is

:17:05.:17:08.

King Henry. Back at Waterlooville Trevor and

:17:08.:17:11.

the group are getting into the swing of things, with some old-

:17:11.:17:18.

fashioned bawdy humour. This is King Henry's undergarments. This is

:17:18.:17:21.

quite good, because for those who can't see it, I am sure you will

:17:21.:17:25.

wander around and let them touch you. Feel the jewels and the fine

:17:25.:17:28.

materials. Not those jewels. behind the fun and frolics this bit

:17:28.:17:33.

of hands-on experience has made a real difference. Go on then, right

:17:33.:17:43.
:17:43.:17:44.

back! Trevor is excellent. He really explained everything to us.

:17:44.:17:48.

He let us touch things we couldn't see, feel them, a lovely lecture,

:17:48.:17:51.

it really was. Trevor made it real. We almost felt we were there.

:17:51.:17:56.

Because he brings it to life. And instead of being just a bit of dull

:17:56.:18:03.

history, it is real. It has educated us. Now we are looking

:18:03.:18:06.

forward to it, we are looking forward to going to the museum and

:18:06.:18:11.

see some more. We can learn some more. The more you can learn, the

:18:11.:18:17.

better. When Sam Davis attended one of the

:18:17.:18:20.

Mary Rose presentations he didn't know it would change his life. At

:18:20.:18:23.

the time he had just come through a major health scare.

:18:23.:18:27.

I was a taxi driver, and all of a sudden I thought, I don't know

:18:27.:18:34.

where this is, I don't know where I am going. I literally pulled the

:18:34.:18:36.

car over into a parking space, stopped the car, and radioed

:18:36.:18:40.

through to the leaders and I said, I'm sorry, I can't remember where I

:18:40.:18:44.

am going, can you help me? In the wake of the stroke, what

:18:44.:18:47.

were your symptoms? Apparently I just switched off for

:18:47.:18:50.

five days. Woke up, I couldn't speak, can read, couldn't do

:18:51.:18:56.

anything. I had to learn to actually speak again and as you can

:18:56.:19:02.

see, now after nearly two years, I have moved on from that.

:19:02.:19:08.

Sam now works as a volunteer at the Mary Rose Museum. It has given me a

:19:09.:19:12.

reason to be here, quite frankly. To be honest, without something to

:19:12.:19:17.

do on a regular basis, I didn't see much point in it. But I was looking

:19:17.:19:23.

for work. Not necessarily for the money, just to feel useful, really.

:19:23.:19:27.

In some way. Even if I wasn't using all of my old skills, at least I am

:19:28.:19:32.

coming down here and feeling a little bit more useful.

:19:32.:19:35.

There is a sort of sense of community, really, that has built

:19:35.:19:38.

up around the project, around the legacy of the ship, if you like.

:19:39.:19:43.

Yes. There are a lot of people out there who have got something to do,

:19:43.:19:53.

if they are given the chance. And fortunately now I am one of them.

:19:53.:19:56.

There is the wreck of the Mary Rose, what an amazing sight.

:19:56.:20:00.

30 years after these images first inspired the nation the Mary Rose

is still touching and repairing Finally, it is one of the most

:20:09.:20:12.

controversial ethical questions of our time. Is it ever right to

:20:12.:20:17.

assist in the death of a loved one. In a few weeks' time the Commission

:20:17.:20:20.

on assisted dying will publish its recommendations on what system, if

:20:20.:20:29.

any, should be put in place. Like most people I didn't give suicide

:20:29.:20:33.

are thought despite being able to do it legally. Then I had my stroke

:20:33.:20:37.

and it was of life-or-death was taken away from me. It is true you

:20:37.:20:47.
:20:47.:20:56.

don't know what you have until you Tony Nicklinson would like to end

:20:56.:20:59.

his life. Six years ago, a massive stroke left him paralysed below the

:20:59.:21:02.

neck and unable to speak. His condition is called locked in

:21:02.:21:05.

syndrome. He is rarely able to leave his home in Melksham. Right

:21:05.:21:09.

from the word go, when he was still in intensive care, I said to the

:21:09.:21:12.

doctors, he won't want to live like this. We knew it would come.

:21:12.:21:15.

because of his disabilities, Tony needs his wife Jane to help him to

:21:15.:21:19.

end his life. For this, she could face a murder charge. So together,

:21:19.:21:22.

they are trying to change the law. I can't see how anybody could think

:21:22.:21:26.

it's right that Tony's right to take his own life has been taken

:21:26.:21:32.

away. Jane has told her husband's story to a commission set up to

:21:32.:21:40.

explore whether people should be given assistance to die. In the

:21:40.:21:42.

coming weeks, it'll report its suggestions to Parliament.

:21:42.:21:45.

Something in excess of 80% of the population in the UK would like

:21:45.:21:49.

some change in legislation. But the work of the commission has enraged

:21:49.:21:53.

those campaigners who don't want a change in the law. There's no

:21:53.:21:58.

chance of it producing any worthwhile conclusion at all. It's

:21:58.:22:04.

purely a publicity exercise. Tributes have been paid to the

:22:05.:22:12.

husband and wife who travelled to a Swiss euthanasia clinic.

:22:12.:22:15.

More than 150 people have ended their lives by travelling from the

:22:15.:22:20.

UK to countries where assisted suicide is legal. Nobody has yet

:22:20.:22:26.

been prosecuted for accompanying them. But assisting somebody to end

:22:26.:22:29.

their life is illegal in the UK, which means Tony Nicklinson must

:22:29.:22:31.

continue to live a life that's unrecognizable from the one he

:22:31.:22:38.

enjoyed before his stroke. He was the life and soul of the party type.

:22:38.:22:44.

An ex-rugby player, a real alpha male, bit of a daredevil. You know,

:22:44.:22:48.

he went sky diving, did all sorts of crazy things.

:22:48.:22:52.

Tony could outlive Jane. His condition might not cut his life

:22:52.:23:00.

short. But now, being unable to speak, move or do anything for

:23:00.:23:07.

himself life has become unbearable for him. He communicates using a

:23:07.:23:12.

computer that recognises his eye movements. In my case, I awake with

:23:12.:23:15.

dread, knowing that I will have to endure another session of being

:23:15.:23:18.

manhandled by the carers as they shower and dress me to get ready

:23:18.:23:22.

for yet another tedious day. Some days, this life gets too much for

:23:22.:23:32.
:23:32.:23:32.

me and I break down and cry. This is not helped by knowing this

:23:32.:23:37.

I have another 20 years or so because they don't have a way out.

:23:37.:23:41.

He knows that a time will come when he says enough is enough, and

:23:41.:23:43.

really his only option is Switzerland, which he might

:23:43.:23:46.

possibly consider eventually, if our legal case doesn't pan out, or

:23:46.:23:51.

starvation, which is a very nasty way to go. It seemed critically

:23:51.:23:54.

important to all of us, that we went out to see how those countries

:23:54.:24:00.

that had changed legislation, how the change was managed in practice.

:24:00.:24:03.

But I think it's unlikely we'd be able to import any particular

:24:03.:24:10.

system in a country straight into England.

:24:10.:24:12.

But some pro-life campaigners think they've already won the debate and

:24:12.:24:21.

the commission is a waste of time. What has happened all over the

:24:21.:24:26.

world is pro-euthanasia societies have spoken a lot about the very

:24:26.:24:29.

rare but very emotive cases of people who could not kill

:24:29.:24:33.

themselves and are seriously want to. This is a tiny number of people.

:24:33.:24:38.

One has to be sympathetic, but it is very important to make sure

:24:38.:24:43.

people understand that disabled people in general are very opposed

:24:43.:24:53.
:24:53.:24:56.

to any change in the law which protects them at the moment.

:24:56.:24:59.

Michael Wenham has motor neurone disease, a degenerative condition

:24:59.:25:02.

that damages the nervous system. He is also worried that a change in

:25:02.:25:12.
:25:12.:25:21.

the law could affect how society Michael relies on his wife Jane to

:25:21.:25:26.

help him. There may be a time when, like Tony, he is unable to do

:25:26.:25:35.

anything for himself. So Michael agreed to come to Tony's home to

:25:35.:25:37.

discuss face to face, how legalising assisted dying might

:25:37.:25:44.

affect society. Hello, common. Welcome, please make yourself

:25:44.:25:54.
:25:54.:26:03.

comfortable. Thank you for agreeing But you can determine your own fate,

:26:03.:26:05.

because you can commit suicide without assistance whereas some

:26:05.:26:15.
:26:15.:26:50.

people cannot. Why deny them the That isn't the issue. It's about

:26:50.:27:00.
:27:00.:27:25.

Both Tony and Michael await the recommendations the Commission on

:27:25.:27:30.

Assisted Dying will make in the coming weeks. But Jane Nicklinson

:27:30.:27:36.

is determined to keep fighting for the right to help her husband.

:27:36.:27:39.

Obviously nobody wants to give their husband a lethal dose of

:27:39.:27:45.

something, under any circumstances. If I had to do it, would I be able

:27:45.:27:49.

to do it? I don't know until the time comes. I like to think that I

:27:49.:27:52.

would. It's what he wants and if you love someone, you'd do anything

:27:52.:28:01.

to help them. What more can I do? There's nothing I can do. I don't

:28:01.:28:05.

think people realise what am awful thing it is to see the person that

:28:05.:28:08.

you love in there, and you can't relieve their pain. This is all I

:28:08.:28:18.
:28:18.:28:22.

That is it for this week. And if you'd like details of organisations

:28:22.:28:25.

which can offer help on strokes and locked in syndrome then you can
