Hello. | 0:00:05 | 0:00:07 | |
You wouldn't drive drunk, but would you drive tired? | 0:00:07 | 0:00:10 | |
She's got glazed features, you can see the muscle tone | 0:00:10 | 0:00:14 | |
in her face is starting to slacken. | 0:00:14 | 0:00:16 | |
Really long eye closures. | 0:00:16 | 0:00:17 | |
Saving our lives but risking their own. | 0:00:17 | 0:00:20 | |
The junior doctors driving home after night shifts. | 0:00:20 | 0:00:24 | |
I think it's always just too easy to think it won't happen to you. | 0:00:24 | 0:00:29 | |
We set off to find her, and we could see the accident | 0:00:29 | 0:00:33 | |
on the other side of the road. | 0:00:33 | 0:00:38 | |
Also, stripped and shipped. | 0:00:38 | 0:00:39 | |
The unlikely British classic being stolen to order | 0:00:39 | 0:00:41 | |
and smuggled abroad. | 0:00:41 | 0:00:44 | |
And we hot-foot to it the legendary shoe makers that's shutting up shop. | 0:00:44 | 0:00:47 | |
Inside Out - we're always a step ahead. | 0:00:47 | 0:00:56 | |
First, driving tired can be just as dangerous as drink-driving. | 0:01:02 | 0:01:04 | |
In a recent online survey of more than 1,100 junior doctors, | 0:01:04 | 0:01:07 | |
41% admitted falling asleep behind the wheel, following a night shift. | 0:01:07 | 0:01:10 | |
So is it time we all woke up to the danger? | 0:01:10 | 0:01:20 | |
I know of four colleagues who died within my first two | 0:01:22 | 0:01:25 | |
years of qualifying. | 0:01:25 | 0:01:30 | |
All were driving home after night shifts. | 0:01:30 | 0:01:31 | |
I've got an 11-month-old daughter and I continually worry | 0:01:31 | 0:01:34 | |
about having an accident. | 0:01:34 | 0:01:36 | |
I was driving in the slow lane on the motorway, | 0:01:36 | 0:01:40 | |
then woke up in the fast lane. | 0:01:40 | 0:01:46 | |
These are genuine testimonies from junior doctors currently | 0:01:46 | 0:01:49 | |
working in our NHS. | 0:01:49 | 0:01:50 | |
I almost drove into the back of a lorry when I fell asleep briefly. | 0:01:50 | 0:01:53 | |
I've also driven up the kerb, which woke me up. | 0:01:53 | 0:01:57 | |
After seven consecutive nights I fell asleep driving | 0:01:57 | 0:02:00 | |
home and crashed my car into a concrete pillar. | 0:02:00 | 0:02:04 | |
In the NHS as it is, there are greater pressures, | 0:02:04 | 0:02:06 | |
fewer doctors, and it is easy to just keep pushing | 0:02:06 | 0:02:12 | |
yourself to the absolute limit, until you break. | 0:02:12 | 0:02:17 | |
A junior doctor in Oxford, Sam Jayaweera is getting ready | 0:02:17 | 0:02:24 | |
for a 13 hour night shift in intensive care. | 0:02:24 | 0:02:26 | |
She often works four of these in a row. | 0:02:26 | 0:02:28 | |
After only a few months on the job, she had a near miss driving home. | 0:02:28 | 0:02:32 | |
About five minutes away from home, I was on one of the country roads | 0:02:32 | 0:02:36 | |
and found myself on the opposite side of the road. | 0:02:36 | 0:02:40 | |
Thank goodness there was nothing coming the other way. | 0:02:40 | 0:02:44 | |
And in fact, only just last year I was going to a night shift | 0:02:44 | 0:02:48 | |
and I came across a car which was flipped in the road. | 0:02:48 | 0:02:50 | |
It was on an unlit country road and it was an another junior doctor | 0:02:50 | 0:02:54 | |
coming back from their late shift. | 0:02:54 | 0:02:58 | |
On that occasion, the driver escaped unhurt, but sadly, | 0:02:58 | 0:03:02 | |
that's not always the case. | 0:03:02 | 0:03:06 | |
When she came off a night shift, she phoned home | 0:03:06 | 0:03:10 | |
and said "I'm leaving." | 0:03:10 | 0:03:15 | |
She had a chat with her mum and explained that the night | 0:03:15 | 0:03:18 | |
shift has gone well. | 0:03:18 | 0:03:19 | |
Brian's daughter Lauren Connelly was driving home after her | 0:03:19 | 0:03:22 | |
first ever night shift as a newly qualified doctor. | 0:03:22 | 0:03:31 | |
She was a bit concerned about how things might go, | 0:03:32 | 0:03:35 | |
because it was a new experience for her being in charge. | 0:03:35 | 0:03:38 | |
And she was feeling quite pleased with herself. | 0:03:38 | 0:03:39 | |
But nevertheless on the journey back home, she fell asleep. | 0:03:39 | 0:03:42 | |
How did you find out something had gone wrong? | 0:03:42 | 0:03:44 | |
Because we were expecting her home, we set off to find her, | 0:03:44 | 0:03:47 | |
and while we were driving, we could see the accident | 0:03:47 | 0:03:49 | |
on the other side of the road. | 0:03:49 | 0:03:59 | |
At the time, junior doctors in Scotland could work up to seven | 0:04:02 | 0:04:05 | |
night shifts in a row. | 0:04:05 | 0:04:06 | |
Brian's campaigning has helped cut this to five. | 0:04:06 | 0:04:12 | |
I'm Lauren's voice now. | 0:04:12 | 0:04:16 | |
She's not able to speak for herself. | 0:04:16 | 0:04:17 | |
I think that she did speak up initially, but wasn't able | 0:04:17 | 0:04:21 | |
to carry that through. | 0:04:21 | 0:04:24 | |
I'm trying to do it now. | 0:04:24 | 0:04:29 | |
18 months ago, after a run of night shifts, a junior doctor | 0:04:29 | 0:04:35 | |
from Gosport was heading home to his pregnant wife. | 0:04:35 | 0:04:37 | |
Dr Ronak Patel was driving home after a third of three night shifts | 0:04:37 | 0:04:43 | |
when his car collided with a lorry. | 0:04:43 | 0:04:45 | |
The doctor who died in a head-on collision probably fell asleep | 0:04:45 | 0:04:47 | |
according to evidence heard... | 0:04:47 | 0:04:49 | |
Dr Patel was just 33-year-old. | 0:04:49 | 0:04:54 | |
I think it's too easy to think it won't happen to you, | 0:04:54 | 0:04:57 | |
but I think that when you have tragedies that are so close to home, | 0:04:57 | 0:05:02 | |
like someone who is pretty much exactly like you, | 0:05:02 | 0:05:07 | |
is, is really, is scary. | 0:05:07 | 0:05:10 | |
It's something that really does make me think. | 0:05:10 | 0:05:12 | |
Keen to learn if she is right to be concerned, Sam's agreed to take | 0:05:12 | 0:05:15 | |
a driving reactions test after working a 13 hour night shift. | 0:05:15 | 0:05:18 | |
We'll find out later how she got on. | 0:05:18 | 0:05:24 | |
It's estimated there are more than three million of us regularly | 0:05:24 | 0:05:27 | |
working through the night in all kinds of jobs. | 0:05:27 | 0:05:32 | |
Dr Michael Farquhar is a sleep consultant, and teaches | 0:05:32 | 0:05:35 | |
the importance of rest to newly recruited junior doctors. | 0:05:35 | 0:05:41 | |
When we work at night, our brains think we should be asleep. | 0:05:41 | 0:05:44 | |
It's like fighting against jet lag the whole time. | 0:05:44 | 0:05:46 | |
The teaching that we do is all about making sure | 0:05:46 | 0:05:48 | |
that we encourage our junior doctors, our nursing colleagues, | 0:05:48 | 0:05:52 | |
everybody who's working at night, that it's not a sign of weakness | 0:05:52 | 0:05:57 | |
at all to take rest and breaks when we're working. | 0:05:57 | 0:05:59 | |
There is very much a hero attitude in medicine and nursing, | 0:05:59 | 0:06:02 | |
that our own needs come second to the needs of the patient, | 0:06:02 | 0:06:05 | |
but if you are over tired, fatigued, you are not rested, | 0:06:05 | 0:06:11 | |
you are not able to give the best to your patient. | 0:06:11 | 0:06:14 | |
So even though there may be ten patients waiting to see | 0:06:14 | 0:06:18 | |
in an emergency department, you taking half an hour just to be | 0:06:18 | 0:06:21 | |
able to have your own time to rest, to break, to combat the fatigue that | 0:06:21 | 0:06:24 | |
does build up when we are working these type shifts, this type | 0:06:24 | 0:06:27 | |
of work, is absolutely important. | 0:06:27 | 0:06:34 | |
In Oxford, Sam's just finished her night shift. | 0:06:34 | 0:06:37 | |
How you feeling? | 0:06:37 | 0:06:38 | |
Yes, pretty tired. | 0:06:38 | 0:06:40 | |
It was really, really busy. | 0:06:40 | 0:06:41 | |
Quite stressful. | 0:06:41 | 0:06:42 | |
I cover intensive care and we had a full unit of patients, | 0:06:42 | 0:06:50 | |
so I managed to grab a cup of coffee about half three. | 0:06:50 | 0:06:52 | |
I've been pretty much on the go the whole time. | 0:06:52 | 0:06:55 | |
Before Sam can go home to bed, it's time for her driving reactions | 0:06:55 | 0:07:01 | |
test at the Transport Research Lab in Berkshire. | 0:07:01 | 0:07:03 | |
So if you'd like to come through to the simulator and take a seat. | 0:07:03 | 0:07:06 | |
Simon Tong is in charge of driver fatigue research, | 0:07:06 | 0:07:08 | |
and will be analysing Sam's performance. | 0:07:08 | 0:07:10 | |
Fatigue is a huge road safety problem. | 0:07:10 | 0:07:16 | |
Our own perception of our fatigue level tends to lag behind reality, | 0:07:16 | 0:07:22 | |
and by the time we've realised it, we could have already made a very | 0:07:22 | 0:07:26 | |
serious mistake that could have led to a collision. | 0:07:26 | 0:07:31 | |
We'd like you to keep to 60mph for the whole time, please. | 0:07:31 | 0:07:34 | |
It's one of those things where I know I'm tired, | 0:07:34 | 0:07:36 | |
but if I want to get home, if I need to get home, then I would, | 0:07:36 | 0:07:40 | |
I would get into the car. | 0:07:40 | 0:07:41 | |
OK, Sam, so the simulator is set up ready for you to start. | 0:07:41 | 0:07:44 | |
Sam has to drive along a virtual motorway for the next 90 minutes. | 0:07:44 | 0:07:47 | |
We're monitoring her reactions from the control room. | 0:07:47 | 0:07:50 | |
So it's lots of blinking, and sometimes you see those | 0:07:50 | 0:07:53 | |
long blinks, don't you. | 0:07:53 | 0:07:54 | |
Yeah. | 0:07:54 | 0:07:58 | |
After just a few minutes, Sam starts blinking more rapidly, | 0:07:58 | 0:08:01 | |
in a failed attempt to increase her alertness. | 0:08:01 | 0:08:03 | |
You can tell she is fighting it as well. | 0:08:03 | 0:08:05 | |
She'll have a moment when she is tired - | 0:08:05 | 0:08:07 | |
there we go, another one - and then lots of blinking to try | 0:08:07 | 0:08:10 | |
and clear the sleep. | 0:08:10 | 0:08:11 | |
You can see with the mouth movements as well. | 0:08:11 | 0:08:16 | |
After 19 minute, Sam's eyes start to blink more slowly. | 0:08:16 | 0:08:19 | |
She's having micro sleeps. | 0:08:19 | 0:08:23 | |
Micro sleep is just a slightly longer blink, up to 15 | 0:08:23 | 0:08:27 | |
seconds in duration, but neurologically it's usually | 0:08:27 | 0:08:28 | |
an indicator that someone has disengaged from the task. | 0:08:28 | 0:08:33 | |
Look - oh.... | 0:08:33 | 0:08:37 | |
Yes, she's getting quite bad now. | 0:08:37 | 0:08:39 | |
And you think at motorway speed, eyes shut for a second | 0:08:39 | 0:08:42 | |
how far you can travel, what you'll miss. | 0:08:42 | 0:08:44 | |
Tens of metres can be travelled in that distance. | 0:08:44 | 0:08:53 | |
Sam's meant to stick to the inside lane for the whole | 0:08:53 | 0:08:56 | |
journey, but she's struggling to stay on course. | 0:08:56 | 0:08:58 | |
She just moved out on to the right, then she's almost overcompensated | 0:08:58 | 0:09:01 | |
to bring it back to the left. | 0:09:01 | 0:09:02 | |
Yes, that's quite typical when someone's fatigued. | 0:09:02 | 0:09:04 | |
Their inputs tend to be exaggerated. | 0:09:04 | 0:09:06 | |
She has glazed features, you can see the muscle tone | 0:09:06 | 0:09:08 | |
in her face is starting to slacken. | 0:09:08 | 0:09:10 | |
Really long eye closures. | 0:09:10 | 0:09:14 | |
Hi Sam, you can now stop the vehicle, so please | 0:09:14 | 0:09:16 | |
bring it to a halt. | 0:09:16 | 0:09:17 | |
Test over, and Simon has the results. | 0:09:17 | 0:09:21 | |
So, one of the key indicators of fatigue is lane departures, | 0:09:21 | 0:09:24 | |
and today, 69 occasions you left the inside lane of the motorway. | 0:09:24 | 0:09:26 | |
That in total meant it was almost two-and-a-half minutes that | 0:09:26 | 0:09:29 | |
you spent outside of the lane you are supposed to be | 0:09:29 | 0:09:35 | |
travelling the in. | 0:09:35 | 0:09:38 | |
What's really worrying, though, is the number of times | 0:09:38 | 0:09:42 | |
that your reaction speed was slower than 1.5 seconds, and therefore | 0:09:42 | 0:09:45 | |
dangerous, and there were 12 occasions when you failed | 0:09:45 | 0:09:48 | |
to respond quickly enough. | 0:09:48 | 0:09:52 | |
On one instance it was 5.5 seconds later. | 0:09:52 | 0:09:55 | |
Was it really? | 0:09:55 | 0:09:57 | |
Yes. | 0:09:57 | 0:09:58 | |
How do you feel when you hear those numbers? | 0:09:58 | 0:10:04 | |
I mean, that particular one is really shocking. | 0:10:04 | 0:10:06 | |
5.5 seconds, to not brake on a motorway is just - | 0:10:06 | 0:10:09 | |
I mean, as you say it would cause a collision. | 0:10:09 | 0:10:11 | |
That's terrifying. | 0:10:11 | 0:10:17 | |
That's really, really scary. | 0:10:17 | 0:10:19 | |
Clearly, driving when this tired is dangerous. | 0:10:19 | 0:10:27 | |
Across the country, junior doctors are working long, | 0:10:27 | 0:10:29 | |
high intensity shifts. | 0:10:29 | 0:10:30 | |
Some clocking up 91 hours a week. | 0:10:30 | 0:10:32 | |
I have regularly driven home pinching myself. | 0:10:32 | 0:10:33 | |
Biting my cheek, trying to stay awake in slow traffic. | 0:10:33 | 0:10:38 | |
I've had three accidents over three years, all with vehicle damage. | 0:10:38 | 0:10:44 | |
Last year, the Health Secretary's controversial new junior doctor | 0:10:44 | 0:10:51 | |
contract reduced the number of consecutive night | 0:10:51 | 0:10:53 | |
shifts from seven to four. | 0:10:53 | 0:10:54 | |
The working week for junior doctors was also cut. | 0:10:54 | 0:10:56 | |
Tired doctors risk patient safety. | 0:10:56 | 0:10:59 | |
So in the new contract the maximum number of hours that can be worked | 0:10:59 | 0:11:03 | |
in one week will be reduced from 91 to 72. | 0:11:03 | 0:11:09 | |
I think he should be shamed of himself, boasting about that. | 0:11:09 | 0:11:13 | |
We're asking junior doctors to work nearly twice as much | 0:11:13 | 0:11:17 | |
as the rest of the population. | 0:11:17 | 0:11:20 | |
And that's a boast? | 0:11:20 | 0:11:24 | |
The Department of Health declined to be interviewed, | 0:11:24 | 0:11:26 | |
but told us they expect the NHS to ensure all staff | 0:11:26 | 0:11:28 | |
are properly rested. | 0:11:28 | 0:11:35 | |
We're going to be looking for 40 years of service of a junior doctor. | 0:11:35 | 0:11:38 | |
But we're not going to get it if they're so exhausted | 0:11:38 | 0:11:44 | |
they have accidents, like Lauren or otherwise. | 0:11:44 | 0:11:47 | |
No-one should leave their home and not return from their work. | 0:11:47 | 0:11:57 | |
Still to come, we say a fond farewell to an Oxford institution. | 0:11:58 | 0:12:03 | |
All good things come to an end. | 0:12:03 | 0:12:05 | |
Thank you very much for your custom. | 0:12:05 | 0:12:08 | |
As ever, love to hear your thoughts about the show, you can drop me | 0:12:08 | 0:12:11 | |
an e-mail at [email protected]. | 0:12:11 | 0:12:12 | |
Next, the Land Rover Defender. | 0:12:12 | 0:12:14 | |
The British work horse which has a cult status | 0:12:14 | 0:12:16 | |
with enthusiasts and car thieves. | 0:12:16 | 0:12:17 | |
Glenn Campbell investigates. | 0:12:17 | 0:12:21 | |
Next, the Land Rover Defender. | 0:12:21 | 0:12:23 | |
The British work horse which has a cult status | 0:12:23 | 0:12:25 | |
with enthusiasts and car thieves. | 0:12:25 | 0:12:27 | |
Glenn Campbell investigates. | 0:12:27 | 0:12:30 | |
Some of these Land Rovers are worth north of ?50,000. | 0:12:30 | 0:12:34 | |
Lovingly built and tinkered with over decades. | 0:12:34 | 0:12:38 | |
To their owners, these vehicles are much more than just a car. | 0:12:38 | 0:12:42 | |
Problem is, to organised gangs of car thieves, | 0:12:42 | 0:12:44 | |
the Land Rover has become a top target. | 0:12:44 | 0:12:50 | |
We have a couple of Facebook pages to give people | 0:12:50 | 0:12:52 | |
information about the club, always somebody coming | 0:12:52 | 0:12:55 | |
on there, "Please help me, my Land Rover has been stolen." | 0:12:55 | 0:12:58 | |
I would say it's probably once a week. | 0:12:58 | 0:13:02 | |
So, who is stealing the Land Rovers and why are they doing it? | 0:13:02 | 0:13:06 | |
And where are they all going to? | 0:13:06 | 0:13:12 | |
I had one stolen 18 months, two years ago, just off the drive | 0:13:12 | 0:13:15 | |
in the middle of the night. | 0:13:15 | 0:13:16 | |
Someone broke into it, disappeared never saw it again. | 0:13:16 | 0:13:19 | |
This one now lives in my garage, under lock and key, and everything | 0:13:19 | 0:13:23 | |
else I've got is well secured. | 0:13:23 | 0:13:29 | |
They are unfortunately very stealable. | 0:13:29 | 0:13:30 | |
Stealable, because the last Land Rover Defender rolled off | 0:13:30 | 0:13:32 | |
the production line in January 2016, and since then this car has | 0:13:32 | 0:13:35 | |
become the second most stolen vehicle in England. | 0:13:35 | 0:13:41 | |
When you buy a Land Rover, you're not buying a car, | 0:13:41 | 0:13:43 | |
you're buying a hobby. | 0:13:43 | 0:13:44 | |
It's the heart and soul that people put into these vehicles. | 0:13:44 | 0:13:47 | |
It's not just a car that people drive, it's a car that people love, | 0:13:47 | 0:13:50 | |
it's a car that people cherish. | 0:13:50 | 0:13:52 | |
Sometimes it's a car that's been passed down through the family, | 0:13:52 | 0:13:54 | |
and the impact from these people when they've had it stolen, | 0:13:54 | 0:13:57 | |
it's like losing your dog. | 0:13:57 | 0:13:59 | |
It's not nice. | 0:13:59 | 0:14:00 | |
This Land Rover was the pride and joy of Leicestershire Police | 0:14:00 | 0:14:03 | |
until the thieves took it apart overnight. | 0:14:03 | 0:14:04 | |
It was parked outside a local police station. | 0:14:04 | 0:14:06 | |
But all these stolen Land Rovers have got to be going somewhere. | 0:14:06 | 0:14:09 | |
So what exactly is happening to them? | 0:14:09 | 0:14:11 | |
Police say high end vehicles like these Range Rovers | 0:14:11 | 0:14:14 | |
are being stolen to order and shipped abroad, | 0:14:14 | 0:14:16 | |
mostly to Africa. | 0:14:16 | 0:14:25 | |
Older, more vintage models are equally as desirable | 0:14:27 | 0:14:29 | |
to the thieves because Land Rovers were designed to be simple | 0:14:29 | 0:14:32 | |
to fix out in the field. | 0:14:32 | 0:14:33 | |
I think because they stopped making them, the spare parts | 0:14:33 | 0:14:36 | |
are few and far between. | 0:14:36 | 0:14:37 | |
However, unfortunately with a box of spanners and an hour you can have | 0:14:37 | 0:14:40 | |
one in bits completely. | 0:14:40 | 0:14:41 | |
There's no code stamped on most of the parts, | 0:14:41 | 0:14:43 | |
so they appear on eBay, and there's a market | 0:14:43 | 0:14:45 | |
unfortunately for stolen bits. | 0:14:45 | 0:14:48 | |
John is a Land Rover mechanic from Sussex who was hit | 0:14:48 | 0:14:51 | |
by the thieves last year. | 0:14:51 | 0:14:52 | |
As someone who knows Land Rovers inside out, | 0:14:52 | 0:14:54 | |
I've set him a little challenge. | 0:14:54 | 0:15:01 | |
The plan is to unbolt parts of a Land Rover until we end up | 0:15:01 | 0:15:04 | |
with as big a pile of bits and as little Land Rover | 0:15:04 | 0:15:07 | |
as we can finish with. | 0:15:07 | 0:15:14 | |
OK, fellas, that's 23 minutes. | 0:15:14 | 0:15:15 | |
23 minutes gone. | 0:15:15 | 0:15:16 | |
John firmly believes that his beloved Land Rover was stolen | 0:15:16 | 0:15:19 | |
to order and cannibalised for parts. | 0:15:19 | 0:15:20 | |
With the clock ticking and multiple cameras running, | 0:15:20 | 0:15:22 | |
we'll check back in with John in a while. | 0:15:22 | 0:15:25 | |
Henry Mowforth is a mechanic on slightly larger vehicles. | 0:15:25 | 0:15:27 | |
He's a steam train engineer. | 0:15:27 | 0:15:29 | |
His Land Rover was special. | 0:15:29 | 0:15:30 | |
It was his wedding car. | 0:15:30 | 0:15:38 | |
We used it to get from the church to the reception. | 0:15:38 | 0:15:41 | |
Me and my wife and my son. | 0:15:41 | 0:15:43 | |
So I used it all the time, because that was my first vehicle. | 0:15:43 | 0:15:46 | |
Henry's Land Rover was stolen from the car park of the Kent | 0:15:46 | 0:15:49 | |
and Sussex railway. | 0:15:49 | 0:15:52 | |
So, if you've seen SSY 841, one steam engine driver | 0:15:52 | 0:15:54 | |
would love to have her back. | 0:15:54 | 0:15:57 | |
I was never envisaging getting rid of it. | 0:15:57 | 0:15:59 | |
That was going to be with me for life, then | 0:15:59 | 0:16:02 | |
handed down to my son, if he was interested, | 0:16:02 | 0:16:04 | |
and so on, so forth. | 0:16:04 | 0:16:05 | |
It is soul-destroying, really. | 0:16:05 | 0:16:06 | |
You've spent all that time with it, and now it's just gone. | 0:16:06 | 0:16:15 | |
Car crime is now a high tech business. | 0:16:17 | 0:16:19 | |
This garage is full of top end Range Rovers. | 0:16:19 | 0:16:21 | |
The manufacturers fit all of these cars with at least one tracker | 0:16:21 | 0:16:24 | |
for the benefit of their owners, but the car gangs have | 0:16:24 | 0:16:27 | |
a trick up their sleeve. | 0:16:27 | 0:16:30 | |
They are not using one of these - a "magic wand" - to sniff | 0:16:30 | 0:16:33 | |
the tracker and disable it. | 0:16:33 | 0:16:35 | |
I'll just turn that up. | 0:16:35 | 0:16:36 | |
So they will know that there's something in the vehicle. | 0:16:36 | 0:16:38 | |
A tracker. | 0:16:38 | 0:16:39 | |
A tracker. | 0:16:39 | 0:16:40 | |
Now when people steal a car, they will block the signal. | 0:16:40 | 0:16:43 | |
So they will block any signal coming out of the car, | 0:16:43 | 0:16:46 | |
take it to somewhere safe, take it to a side road | 0:16:46 | 0:16:48 | |
or in a unit somewhere, and then when they feel safe, | 0:16:48 | 0:16:51 | |
they will switch this unit on, and try and find the tracking unit. | 0:16:51 | 0:16:54 | |
As soon as they find it, it will be disconnected. | 0:16:54 | 0:16:59 | |
Being one step ahead of the thieves is the only way to catch them, | 0:16:59 | 0:17:02 | |
and the latest gadget does just that. | 0:17:02 | 0:17:04 | |
A tiny highly intelligence tracker that can't be sniffed | 0:17:04 | 0:17:06 | |
out by the magic wand. | 0:17:06 | 0:17:07 | |
So what is the product that you have come up with? | 0:17:07 | 0:17:10 | |
What is this secret tracker? | 0:17:10 | 0:17:16 | |
Well, that is the point. | 0:17:16 | 0:17:17 | |
I'd love to be able to tell you and show | 0:17:17 | 0:17:19 | |
you the device, we don't do that. | 0:17:19 | 0:17:21 | |
It could be anything on the car. | 0:17:21 | 0:17:23 | |
It's not one particular unit. | 0:17:23 | 0:17:24 | |
It's well hidden, we don't talk about it. | 0:17:24 | 0:17:26 | |
It could be in the headlight, it could be anywhere. | 0:17:26 | 0:17:28 | |
I wouldn't be showing you any specification for it. | 0:17:28 | 0:17:30 | |
We don't want the thieves to get the upper hand on us. | 0:17:30 | 0:17:38 | |
And Neil's intelligent tracker is getting results. | 0:17:38 | 0:17:39 | |
It can run for months and send a signal from inside | 0:17:39 | 0:17:42 | |
a shipping container. | 0:17:42 | 0:17:43 | |
Here, police are recovering Land Rovers at Southampton docks, | 0:17:43 | 0:17:45 | |
just about to be shipped abroad. | 0:17:45 | 0:17:47 | |
And then here they are again, dozens more being recovered, | 0:17:47 | 0:17:50 | |
this time in Uganda. | 0:17:50 | 0:17:54 | |
Now they don't just steal the whole car, they'll take bits of a car. | 0:17:54 | 0:17:57 | |
There's shots on the internet of a Lincolnshire, I think it is, | 0:17:57 | 0:18:00 | |
Police Land Rover taken to bits. | 0:18:00 | 0:18:02 | |
Why do they take them to bits? | 0:18:02 | 0:18:03 | |
It reduces the risk. | 0:18:03 | 0:18:05 | |
If you take a whole car and try and sell it or move it, | 0:18:05 | 0:18:08 | |
that still is that vehicle, it can be identified. | 0:18:08 | 0:18:11 | |
If you take it apart, it reduces the fact it's a vehicle. | 0:18:11 | 0:18:13 | |
It could look like scrap, it could look like a few car parts. | 0:18:13 | 0:18:17 | |
It reduces what it is. | 0:18:17 | 0:18:18 | |
And of course it is a stolen vehicle. | 0:18:18 | 0:18:22 | |
Back in John's barn, how was his attempt at stripping | 0:18:22 | 0:18:24 | |
a Land Rover in under an hour going? | 0:18:24 | 0:18:26 | |
Was it a case of gone in 60 minutes? | 0:18:26 | 0:18:29 | |
Now you see it... | 0:18:29 | 0:18:31 | |
Now you don't. | 0:18:31 | 0:18:33 | |
Time! | 0:18:33 | 0:18:35 | |
That is... | 0:18:35 | 0:18:36 | |
We're done. | 0:18:36 | 0:18:37 | |
Land Rover stripped in 60 minutes. | 0:18:37 | 0:18:40 | |
Are you surprised you did it this quick? | 0:18:40 | 0:18:42 | |
I am quite surprised, yes. | 0:18:42 | 0:18:43 | |
I don't think I'd want to do it as a business, though. | 0:18:43 | 0:18:46 | |
No. | 0:18:46 | 0:18:47 | |
Now put it back together. | 0:18:47 | 0:18:48 | |
Thank you! | 0:18:48 | 0:18:49 | |
That would take longer! | 0:18:49 | 0:18:52 | |
Glenn Campbell reporting there. | 0:18:52 | 0:18:55 | |
Don't forget we are on Twitter, you can find us @insideoutsouth. | 0:18:55 | 0:19:01 | |
Finally, I'm resisting the urge to say that our final story | 0:19:01 | 0:19:06 | |
is a load of old cobblers, but here is James Ducker in Oxford. | 0:19:06 | 0:19:10 | |
It's often said there's an awful lot you can tell | 0:19:15 | 0:19:17 | |
about a person from their shoes. | 0:19:17 | 0:19:21 | |
But then again I would say that; I'm a bespoke shoe maker. | 0:19:23 | 0:19:28 | |
I've been making shoes by hand for the past 20 years, | 0:19:28 | 0:19:32 | |
from designing them to hand stitching them. | 0:19:32 | 0:19:37 | |
In a world of fast everything, I'm proud to be a part | 0:19:37 | 0:19:40 | |
of a something much slower. | 0:19:40 | 0:19:43 | |
At Ducker Son in Oxford, they've been making shoes | 0:19:46 | 0:19:49 | |
in a similar way since 1898. | 0:19:49 | 0:19:52 | |
But sadly, after nearly 120 years, it's closing. | 0:19:52 | 0:19:58 | |
So when I found out such an iconic shoe makers as Ducker's | 0:19:58 | 0:20:01 | |
was shutting up shop, I had to go for one last time before | 0:20:01 | 0:20:04 | |
they closed their doors for ever. | 0:20:04 | 0:20:07 | |
My name's James...err...Ducker. | 0:20:08 | 0:20:11 | |
Apparently no relation. | 0:20:11 | 0:20:15 | |
Though both our families are from North Norfolk, | 0:20:15 | 0:20:17 | |
so you never know. | 0:20:17 | 0:20:20 | |
My namesake was an engineer before turning his hand to shoe making. | 0:20:20 | 0:20:26 | |
Bob Avery also changed career. | 0:20:26 | 0:20:30 | |
Before teaching himself shoe making, he was a shoe repairer | 0:20:30 | 0:20:33 | |
at Woolworths, and before that a bus conductor. | 0:20:33 | 0:20:38 | |
The ledgers here go back to 1910 and reveal a history | 0:20:38 | 0:20:41 | |
of the city through its shoes. | 0:20:41 | 0:20:44 | |
So, each one of those is an order for a pair of shoes. | 0:20:44 | 0:20:52 | |
This is everything they've had made on their account and the prices | 0:20:52 | 0:20:55 | |
accordingly at that time. | 0:20:55 | 0:20:56 | |
So, in today's money 140. | 0:20:56 | 0:20:58 | |
One pound, eight shillings and sixpence in old money. | 0:20:58 | 0:21:00 | |
I have no idea what that means! | 0:21:00 | 0:21:03 | |
Any particular styles you were looking for, or any colours? | 0:21:03 | 0:21:07 | |
I love everything! | 0:21:07 | 0:21:10 | |
This is an old fashioned shop, and a lot of the work ethics | 0:21:10 | 0:21:14 | |
are still old fashioned. | 0:21:14 | 0:21:17 | |
You don't come in here at nine o'clock and start walking | 0:21:17 | 0:21:20 | |
out the door at five. | 0:21:20 | 0:21:22 | |
My wife has come in the shop at 9.30 at night to ask me if I've got any | 0:21:22 | 0:21:26 | |
intention of coming home. | 0:21:26 | 0:21:28 | |
So do you think there is a little bit of you in every pair | 0:21:28 | 0:21:31 | |
that goes out the door? | 0:21:31 | 0:21:33 | |
You put your mark on every single pair. | 0:21:33 | 0:21:35 | |
These wooden lasts are the starting point for all the shoes ever made | 0:21:35 | 0:21:41 | |
here, the footprints if you like of over a century | 0:21:41 | 0:21:43 | |
of loyal customers. | 0:21:43 | 0:21:46 | |
My name is George Cawkwell. | 0:21:46 | 0:21:50 | |
I have about nine or ten pairs of Ducker's. | 0:21:50 | 0:21:53 | |
Let me slip in here. | 0:21:53 | 0:21:55 | |
I'm 97. | 0:21:55 | 0:21:57 | |
You're now going to admire my agility. | 0:21:57 | 0:22:00 | |
Nobody in my family has ever lived this long. | 0:22:00 | 0:22:06 | |
These are my beauties. | 0:22:06 | 0:22:10 | |
Look at them, aren't they lovely? | 0:22:10 | 0:22:12 | |
Beautiful Ducker's shoes. | 0:22:12 | 0:22:16 | |
These are very old, these are back into the '50s. | 0:22:16 | 0:22:22 | |
Tremendous age. | 0:22:22 | 0:22:24 | |
I came up to Christchurch in 1946. | 0:22:24 | 0:22:30 | |
I wasn't at all rich, but I got into the way | 0:22:30 | 0:22:32 | |
of buying my shoes at Ducker's and there was a little man working | 0:22:32 | 0:22:36 | |
for Ducker's called Laurely. | 0:22:36 | 0:22:40 | |
And I demurred at the price of a pair of shoes one day, | 0:22:40 | 0:22:44 | |
and Laurely said where do you get your shoes from? | 0:22:44 | 0:22:49 | |
I told him Castell. | 0:22:49 | 0:22:53 | |
She said if you can go to Castell's, you can afford to buy these shoes. | 0:22:53 | 0:22:57 | |
I liked her directness. | 0:22:57 | 0:22:58 | |
Those are Ducker's shoes, they must be 50 years old. | 0:22:58 | 0:23:01 | |
Beauties, aren't they? | 0:23:01 | 0:23:04 | |
There's a number of people in this world who have | 0:23:04 | 0:23:06 | |
never been to Duckers. | 0:23:06 | 0:23:08 | |
They should be imprisoned! | 0:23:08 | 0:23:17 | |
They are probably...ooh... | 0:23:20 | 0:23:22 | |
Ten years old? | 0:23:22 | 0:23:23 | |
But they look as good as new as far as I'm concerned. | 0:23:23 | 0:23:26 | |
Yes, they look lovely. | 0:23:26 | 0:23:27 | |
Are you a loyal Ducker's customer? | 0:23:27 | 0:23:29 | |
I am indeed. | 0:23:29 | 0:23:30 | |
I first came here as an undergraduate and I came up | 0:23:30 | 0:23:32 | |
in 1976, and I've been coming here ever since. | 0:23:32 | 0:23:34 | |
And how many pairs of Ducker's do you think you have? | 0:23:34 | 0:23:37 | |
I think probably about 30 pairs. | 0:23:37 | 0:23:39 | |
For some, it's the last chance to own a bit of Oxford's history. | 0:23:39 | 0:23:46 | |
I just bought a pair of Ducker's and I think you can tell a lot | 0:23:46 | 0:23:50 | |
about a place from its shoes. | 0:23:50 | 0:23:54 | |
So in this case Oxford is on a flood plain and there are generations | 0:23:54 | 0:23:57 | |
of students and dons, fellows of colleges, | 0:23:57 | 0:23:59 | |
who have been used to walking in and out of colleges and college | 0:23:59 | 0:24:02 | |
gardens and tramping along the Thames, | 0:24:02 | 0:24:03 | |
which is just over there. | 0:24:03 | 0:24:06 | |
And you've got this great proximity of city and countryside. | 0:24:06 | 0:24:12 | |
It's one of the distinctive features of Oxford, so shoes that Ducker's | 0:24:12 | 0:24:17 | |
are famous for are rubber-soled, good for the wet, storm welt, | 0:24:17 | 0:24:20 | |
which is the speed that runs all the way round the shoe that | 0:24:20 | 0:24:25 | |
stops the water getting in, and what they call a rustic grain, | 0:24:25 | 0:24:29 | |
which is this embossed look, which is much more | 0:24:29 | 0:24:31 | |
resistant to scratching. | 0:24:31 | 0:24:33 | |
So it is at home in town and in the countryside. | 0:24:33 | 0:24:37 | |
Even though people walk in, it's a lot more relaxed today. | 0:24:37 | 0:24:45 | |
You never quite know who's going to walk in, | 0:24:45 | 0:24:47 | |
you never quite know. | 0:24:47 | 0:24:50 | |
So there is a Baron von Plessen there, and there's a | 0:24:50 | 0:24:52 | |
Baron von Richthofen there. | 0:24:52 | 0:24:53 | |
Ah! | 0:24:53 | 0:24:54 | |
Who actually didn't pay his bill. | 0:24:54 | 0:24:56 | |
But he collected his shoes. | 0:24:56 | 0:24:57 | |
Well, yes. | 0:24:57 | 0:24:59 | |
Descendants of his came in in 1989, they honoured the account. | 0:24:59 | 0:25:02 | |
Is that what that is? | 0:25:02 | 0:25:03 | |
That entry is in red there, yes. | 0:25:03 | 0:25:06 | |
So there's another entry there, look, which you | 0:25:06 | 0:25:08 | |
may know who that is. | 0:25:08 | 0:25:11 | |
It's Evelyn Waugh, the author. | 0:25:11 | 0:25:14 | |
She was at Jesus College, 1912. | 0:25:14 | 0:25:17 | |
Perhaps the most famous customer is Lord of the Rings author JRR | 0:25:17 | 0:25:20 | |
Tolkien, who studied English at Oxford. | 0:25:20 | 0:25:24 | |
So he played football. | 0:25:24 | 0:25:26 | |
In 1967, another young undergraduate remembers his first | 0:25:26 | 0:25:28 | |
encounter with Ducker's, which did reveal | 0:25:28 | 0:25:29 | |
a family connection. | 0:25:29 | 0:25:36 | |
I think I paid by cheque, | 0:25:36 | 0:25:43 | |
and looking at the cheque that I gave | 0:25:43 | 0:25:45 | |
the gentleman who served me, he noted my surname, | 0:25:45 | 0:25:48 | |
which is spelt in a slightly unusual way, and he said, | 0:25:48 | 0:25:50 | |
"I remember a customer of that name." | 0:25:50 | 0:25:55 | |
He got down a large leather bound ledger book and turned the pages | 0:25:55 | 0:26:04 | |
and ran his finger down them, and said "Hugh Spait". | 0:26:06 | 0:26:09 | |
Now this was an uncle of mine who'd been at Oxford over | 0:26:09 | 0:26:12 | |
40 years previously. | 0:26:12 | 0:26:16 | |
He died soon after leaving so he couldn't have been | 0:26:16 | 0:26:18 | |
using the shop after that, and the elderly gentleman | 0:26:18 | 0:26:28 | |
said, "Yes, here it is, and his account is fully paid up." | 0:26:28 | 0:26:31 | |
And it created a lovely feeling that here was someone who took such | 0:26:31 | 0:26:34 | |
an interest in the customers of his shop that after over 40 years | 0:26:34 | 0:26:37 | |
he remembered the name. | 0:26:37 | 0:26:45 | |
Good morning, Mr Marsh. | 0:26:45 | 0:26:47 | |
Hello. | 0:26:47 | 0:26:48 | |
Thank you. | 0:26:48 | 0:26:49 | |
There's your shoe repairs for you, all done. | 0:26:49 | 0:26:51 | |
Oh, wonderful. | 0:26:51 | 0:26:52 | |
Are you a long time Ducker's customer? | 0:26:52 | 0:26:54 | |
Well, I am and I've passed this shop for 50 years so I'm very pleased | 0:26:54 | 0:26:57 | |
to be a member of the community here and to even have my shoes soled | 0:26:57 | 0:27:01 | |
and heeled here as well. | 0:27:01 | 0:27:02 | |
There we are, sir. | 0:27:02 | 0:27:04 | |
Thank you so much indeed. | 0:27:04 | 0:27:05 | |
You're most welcome. | 0:27:05 | 0:27:07 | |
I'm sorry this is the last time. | 0:27:07 | 0:27:08 | |
Well, there we are. | 0:27:08 | 0:27:10 | |
All good things come to an end. | 0:27:10 | 0:27:12 | |
Thank you very much for your custom. | 0:27:12 | 0:27:13 | |
Very much appreciated. | 0:27:13 | 0:27:14 | |
I wish you well. | 0:27:14 | 0:27:15 | |
Thank you. | 0:27:15 | 0:27:16 | |
Bye-bye now. | 0:27:16 | 0:27:21 | |
I've enjoyed every minute of it, still do. | 0:27:24 | 0:27:28 | |
It's not the fact I'm fed up but I've reached an age | 0:27:28 | 0:27:31 | |
where I am in God's time. | 0:27:31 | 0:27:35 | |
Bob, there's little something here for you to thank you so much | 0:27:35 | 0:27:39 | |
for so many years looking after me and my shoes | 0:27:39 | 0:27:42 | |
and comes with my great thanks for so many years' association. | 0:27:42 | 0:27:45 | |
Thank you. | 0:27:45 | 0:27:47 | |
Completely unnecessary but thank you for your continued custom | 0:27:47 | 0:27:49 | |
throughout the years. | 0:27:49 | 0:27:52 | |
I'm only a tiny, tiny part in this legend, | 0:27:52 | 0:27:57 | |
a tiny part but best to go. | 0:27:57 | 0:27:59 | |
Best to go while everyone is clapping. | 0:27:59 | 0:28:03 | |
I think it was Cinderella who said, "A shoe can change your life". | 0:28:11 | 0:28:15 | |
As they turn the key here for the last time, | 0:28:15 | 0:28:17 | |
Isobel and Bob would probably agree. | 0:28:17 | 0:28:21 | |

Always sad to see the old things disappear. | 0:28:29 | 0:28:32 | |
Talking of which, I will see you next week. | 0:28:32 | 0:28:34 | |
Bye! | 0:28:34 | 0:28:37 |
