:01:10. > :01:15.little later on we will be meeting a 19-year-old and her mother
:01:15. > :01:18.talking on camera for the first time about he -- about how she
:01:19. > :01:24.joined in this summer's looting of shops. We begin tonight with a
:01:24. > :01:30.story which is both heart-warming and tragic. It began in Afghanistan
:01:30. > :01:35.and ended up in Warwickshire. This is the story of a young man's quest
:01:35. > :01:39.to make a difference. A friendship with a feral dog in a foreign land.
:01:39. > :01:49.And a family's fight to make sense of a terrible loss with the help of
:01:49. > :01:52.
:01:52. > :02:02.For Sandy Lewis, it all began on a winter's day with the ominous sight
:02:02. > :02:02.
:02:02. > :02:06.of a man in a suit waiting on the doorstep of her home in Claverdon.
:02:06. > :02:16.Apparently, he had been their most of the day waiting for us to come
:02:16. > :02:20.
:02:20. > :02:30.home. And he just... He said I have got something to tell you. And you
:02:30. > :02:30.
:02:31. > :02:34.knew? He has. -- yes. Conrad was just 22 when he was killed while
:02:34. > :02:40.fighting in Afghanistan. He'd always been an adventurous boy and
:02:40. > :02:44.loved the army. Conrad was very active and always in the thick of
:02:45. > :02:49.it. When he went, we were obviously nervous and fearful. And even more
:02:49. > :02:52.so because we knew he would give it everything he had got and it cost
:02:53. > :02:55.him everything in the end. To make life bearable in Afghanistan,
:02:55. > :03:02.Conrad befriended a dog called Pegasus, named after the Parachute
:03:02. > :03:07.Regiment's flying horse emblem, tattooed in biro on her side. Was
:03:07. > :03:12.it unusual for guys out there to form relationships with dogs?
:03:13. > :03:16.don't think it is unusual. I think they find it a little bit of
:03:17. > :03:21.comfort being that faraway, maybe a little bit of reality and
:03:21. > :03:25.compassion when, actually, you are fighting most days. There was a
:03:25. > :03:33.bond, and he would bring pictures of her home. He took us through
:03:33. > :03:36.those pictures of the dock. -- of the dock. Conrad had talked many
:03:36. > :03:39.times about bringing Peg back home to England and now the family set
:03:39. > :03:42.out to fulfil his wish. They discovered a charity called Nowzad,
:03:42. > :03:52.named after a small town in Afghanistan. And with their help,
:03:52. > :03:57.the hunt for Peg began. She'd disappeared after Conrad's death.
:03:57. > :04:02.Those stocks out of Afghanistan, it is difficult to get them out of
:04:02. > :04:07.Afghanistan. It might be a series of journeys we have to arrange,
:04:07. > :04:12.with different transport. If they are in Helmand, they got to get a
:04:13. > :04:15.Lashkar Gah, then Kandahar, then up to us in Northern Afghanistan.
:04:15. > :04:24.Farthing, a former marine, set up the charity after battling to get
:04:24. > :04:30.the dog he'd adopted flown home from Kabul to Cornwall. This guy
:04:30. > :04:35.here is Nowzad. He started it all. There was a dog fight organised by
:04:35. > :04:41.local Afghans, and these two dogs were fighting each other. I don't
:04:41. > :04:45.think we would have seen the dogs again, but this one followed us
:04:45. > :04:48.back to the compound. He adopted me and became my best buddy. From his
:04:48. > :04:52.cramped cottage, which he shares with three other war-zone dogs, Pen
:04:52. > :04:54.masterminds homecomings of dogs and cats. It can be fraught, dangerous
:04:54. > :05:04.and complicated because, officially, the soldiers are forbidden to keep
:05:04. > :05:07.
:05:07. > :05:11.pets. In Afghanistan, it is a matter of who you know, and who you
:05:11. > :05:14.can bribe. The rescue of Peg, which involved a Humvee, the Afghan army
:05:14. > :05:22.and furtive tactics, was co- ordinated from the Nowzad base in
:05:22. > :05:27.Kabul by shelter manager Louise Hastie, who comes from Wednesbury.
:05:27. > :05:32.I phoned the soldiers that helped us. We said, we have got her, she
:05:32. > :05:38.is fine and healthy. It is the way to the world come off my shoulders.
:05:38. > :05:43.This is where she was being kept. This was where she was vaccinated.
:05:43. > :05:46.We then sorted out the paperwork to get her back to the UK. Peg, the
:05:46. > :05:55.dog that survived bombs, bullets and a 3,500 mile journey to the UK
:05:55. > :06:02.eventually arrived at quarantine kennels near Nuneaton. She first
:06:02. > :06:09.came in. She was shell-shocked. It is a long journey from Afghanistan.
:06:09. > :06:14.She was very thin. Sad. Within a matter of weeks, she has come on
:06:14. > :06:21.leaps and bounds and I am really pleased with her. Her six-month
:06:21. > :06:27.waiting quarantine is nearly over and for the family, well, that day
:06:27. > :06:35.cannot come soon enough. The family visit two or three times a week,
:06:35. > :06:40.always very special times. She was the only one that knows the true
:06:40. > :06:44.tale of what happened with Conrad. And she meant so much to him and it
:06:44. > :06:48.is nice to be able to look after something he cannot look after any
:06:48. > :06:50.more. The wait for Peg's return weighs heavily on all the family.
:06:50. > :06:59.Tony Lewis walks Fergie, the family's laid back and very relaxed
:06:59. > :07:05.bulldog, to the memorial bench and tree established to honour Conrad.
:07:05. > :07:10.I think she is our linked to Conrad's time in Afghanistan, a
:07:10. > :07:15.promise to him to bring her back, and she is something we can put all
:07:15. > :07:20.our affection that we had thought Conrad. We will never forget him
:07:20. > :07:22.and never stop loving him and never stop miss him, but she is a
:07:22. > :07:26.reminder. The story of Peg has led to a huge spike of interest in
:07:26. > :07:33.Nowzad with many more dogs and cats being rescued and re-united. Now
:07:33. > :07:37.the donations are flooding in. People are so generous, sending us
:07:37. > :07:42.lots of things and here are some bank it's going back to Afghanistan,
:07:42. > :07:50.dog food that has been donated, and one of the most important things is
:07:50. > :07:59.who's on leave from the shelter in Kabul. This will be the first time
:07:59. > :08:04.she's seen Peg since the rescue in Afghanistan. Oh, she is absolutely
:08:04. > :08:12.fantastic. Every little bit as loving as the first day I met her.
:08:12. > :08:14.Conrad was the 353 soldier killed in Afghanistan and the family have
:08:14. > :08:24.launched a fund raising organisation called 353 to pay
:08:24. > :08:27.
:08:28. > :08:33.tribute to their son and what he was doing. The day has arrived when
:08:34. > :08:43.dog can move to her new home. There is a feeling of excitement and
:08:43. > :08:53.anticipation and a lot of love for a little dog. It is nice to finally
:08:53. > :08:55.
:08:55. > :08:59.be able to say she is home and safe Now, there's just the half-hour car
:08:59. > :09:03.journey home. No problems for a dog that's been hidden in a bag,
:09:03. > :09:13.smuggled in a taxi, ferried by helicopter and flown at 30,000 feet.
:09:13. > :09:18.
:09:18. > :09:23.Just one question - how will Peg That didn't go too well. Actually,
:09:23. > :09:26.she wasn't showing major signs of aggression, so it was OK. And it
:09:26. > :09:36.wasn't long before they settled down. But getting along with the
:09:36. > :09:43.
:09:43. > :09:49.cat, called China, may take a Your thoughts must be on Conrad,
:09:49. > :09:54.today. Yes, absolutely. We have fulfilled a commitment to him.
:09:54. > :09:58.There is nothing else we can do for the lad, really. I think he would
:09:58. > :10:05.be very pleased with what we have achieved today. He would be smiling
:10:05. > :10:10.today, I think. Yes, I think so. The lovely dog and her family. Ever
:10:10. > :10:17.since the riots, people have been trying to work out why young people
:10:17. > :10:22.with no previous criminal record did what they did in Birmingham.
:10:22. > :10:29.One family has decided to speak on camera and we have been to meet
:10:29. > :10:35.them. 19-year old Danielle Corns wants to look her best. It's a very
:10:35. > :10:39.important day. Just getting my stuff. Make sure I don't forget
:10:39. > :10:46.nothing. She is very nervous anyway. She's just trying to put on a brave
:10:46. > :10:49.face for it, really. Danielle is getting ready to go to jail.
:10:49. > :10:56.expecting to go to prison because most people to do with the riots
:10:56. > :11:01.have gone to prison. Danielle was caught stealing from a shop during
:11:01. > :11:10.the riots. In two hours, a judge will decide her fate. Are you
:11:10. > :11:17.nervous? Yeah. I'm nervous for you. She knows she's got to do a bit of
:11:17. > :11:21.punishment... But... I don't think she should go to prison, myself.
:11:21. > :11:31.Tonight, we ask if those involved in the riots are getting what they
:11:31. > :11:32.
:11:32. > :11:38.deserve. And we find out what lies For two days in August, in streets
:11:38. > :11:42.across the West Midlands, rioters created chaos and fear. There was
:11:42. > :11:45.violence in Birmingham and West Bromwich. And in Wolverhampton,
:11:45. > :11:55.crowds looted shops in Queen Street, unaware a security camera was
:11:55. > :11:56.
:11:56. > :12:00.recording everything. It picks out a blonde-haired girl. It's Danielle.
:12:00. > :12:03.Can you tell me what you were doing at that point? I was just walking
:12:03. > :12:08.around, looking, watching people. Shabeer Qureshi is Danielle's
:12:08. > :12:18.lawyer. It's a week before her court appearance and he's taking
:12:18. > :12:18.
:12:18. > :12:26.her through the video. It's the main evidence in the case. You are
:12:26. > :12:33.holding something in your hand. What is it? A trainer. And you are
:12:33. > :12:43.saying something to this person and then you just throw it away. Why?
:12:43. > :12:46.
:12:46. > :12:53.Because it. That's fine. There is one obvious question Daniel cannot
:12:53. > :13:01.answer. Or why? I went in there to be nosy. I didn't intend to steal
:13:02. > :13:04.anything. So the moment when you grabbed those shoes... What was
:13:05. > :13:08.going through your mind? I don't even know. I'm being honest, I
:13:08. > :13:18.don't know. I just regret it. I just regret going in that shop.
:13:18. > :13:21.
:13:21. > :13:23.There was no need for me to go in You know it was wrong? Yeah. When
:13:23. > :13:29.Danielle's picture appeared in a local newspaper, she handed herself
:13:29. > :13:34.in. She was charged with burglary and was remanded in custody. For a
:13:34. > :13:39.girl who'd only just finished her A-levels, prison was a shock.
:13:39. > :13:45.was horrible just to have your freedom took away so quickly. I
:13:45. > :13:52.didn't expect it at all. After six days, Danielle was released on bail
:13:52. > :13:55.on condition that she couldn't leave the house at night. With her
:13:55. > :14:05.future uncertain her plans for a career in the Royal Air Force are
:14:05. > :14:05.
:14:05. > :14:15.on hold. I'm scared that I'm going to prison. Just worried, really.
:14:15. > :14:17.
:14:18. > :14:21.Danielle wasn't masked up, she had no intention of rioting that day.
:14:21. > :14:24.She got caught up. She was being a nosey teenager and she's being
:14:24. > :14:30.punished for that. And she will accept her punishment for that. But
:14:30. > :14:33.I still don't think she should be sent to prison for that. But most
:14:33. > :14:40.rioters have gone to prison. The average sentence for those involved
:14:40. > :14:43.has been 12 months. And many believe jail is the answer. I think
:14:43. > :14:47.it's important that a message does go out there and is sent out and
:14:47. > :14:50.it's a strong and that it's a robust message as well about what
:14:50. > :14:57.is right and what is wrong. In the West Midlands, one rioter was
:14:57. > :15:04.jailed for three years. Danielle's lawyer has been shocked by the
:15:04. > :15:10.severity of the sentences. sentences were far harsher than we
:15:10. > :15:15.were expecting. People without previous convictions taking a small
:15:15. > :15:17.item from a shop technically, yes, it's a burglary. But somebody in
:15:17. > :15:19.those circumstances would ordinarily be getting a community
:15:19. > :15:24.order. But the judges were obviously looking at the bigger
:15:24. > :15:30.picture. And I'm sure they had an eye on what was being said... By
:15:30. > :15:33.the powers that be as well about sending a clear message. And
:15:33. > :15:37.therefore the rulebook really went out the window. So is this a better
:15:37. > :15:47.option? Community payback. Instead of jail, these convicted criminals
:15:47. > :15:48.
:15:48. > :15:52.in Birmingham, are clearing up their local community. None of
:15:52. > :15:59.these men were involved in the roads. Community sentences have
:15:59. > :16:03.been handed out to fewer than 1 in 10 and the country's biggest crime
:16:03. > :16:11.reduction charity says it is a mistake. They are significantly
:16:11. > :16:15.cheaper than prison sentences. They might be more effective than --
:16:15. > :16:19.with crime being proven -- made in a future. You can see what is
:16:19. > :16:24.happening. You can see offenders repairing the damage, you can see
:16:24. > :16:28.offenders being punished by being restricted to their homes overnight
:16:28. > :16:32.rather than pushing prisoners out of sight into expensive prison
:16:32. > :16:39.places for short periods of time with an incredibly bleak her
:16:39. > :16:42.reoffending rate which is just not working. But Wolverhampton's
:16:42. > :16:46.Conservative MP believes the sentences have been fair. You can't
:16:46. > :16:49.look at these individual cases in isolation. You have to look at it
:16:49. > :16:53.in terms of the spectrum of what was happening at that time. And I
:16:53. > :16:56.think it's important to go back and remember that there was a grip of
:16:56. > :17:00.fear around not just the city but the whole country. And so I think
:17:00. > :17:02.it was important that a message was sent out. And I certainly used to
:17:02. > :17:06.find that from constituents and also shopkeepers when they'd speak
:17:06. > :17:09.to me. They'd say to me, "Paul it's absolutely vital that we do send
:17:09. > :17:12.out a message here that this is wrong and that this sort of
:17:12. > :17:22.behaviour has to be nipped in the bud." So I think it was quite
:17:22. > :17:25.
:17:26. > :17:32.important that a message was sent out.. How long were you in the shop
:17:32. > :17:41.for? About 20 seconds. And for those 20 seconds... You're now
:17:41. > :17:51.facing all this? Yeah. Do you think you deserve to go to prison?
:17:51. > :18:01.
:18:01. > :18:06.really, no. Do you think you Danielle's day in court has arrived.
:18:06. > :18:11.It takes just 20 minutes for the judge to make his decision. Moments
:18:11. > :18:21.later Danielle's family and friends appear outside. She is not among
:18:21. > :18:25.them. She got ten months in total. She'll serve half that time in
:18:25. > :18:31.custody. The judge has allowed her back the week she spent in custody
:18:31. > :18:39.at the start and half the time she spent on the tag. So she will serve
:18:39. > :18:44.about three months inside. she's got to be punished for what
:18:44. > :18:50.she did. Yeah, I agree with that. I still don't think she should be
:18:50. > :19:00.sent to prison for it. I'm sorry, but I don't. But many believe
:19:00. > :19:03.
:19:03. > :19:12.justice has been done. If you would like to comment on
:19:12. > :19:21.that or any of our stories, and drop me an e-mail. Or post a
:19:21. > :19:26.comment on the Facebook page. For our final story, we have the
:19:26. > :19:30.epic tale of a book that changed the world for ever. It is a story
:19:30. > :19:38.of extraordinary courage. It is about a man from Gloucestershire
:19:38. > :19:46.whose work as a translator was punished by death. We reveal all.
:19:46. > :19:48.The King James Bible is exactly 400 years old this year. Among the
:19:48. > :19:58.anniversary celebrations is an online invitation for anyone to
:19:58. > :20:00.
:20:00. > :20:10.read a chapter on YouTube. The idea is to present the whole King James
:20:10. > :20:14.
:20:14. > :20:20.Bible in an up-to-date accessible format. Not given to wind... The
:20:20. > :20:25.fact we have the Bible available to us in English in the first place is
:20:25. > :20:32.thanks to one of the most courageous men in history. William
:20:32. > :20:36.Tyndale from Gloucestershire. Who was killed for translating the
:20:36. > :20:40.Bible into English. So, I'm setting off to find out what inspired a
:20:40. > :20:44.young man to risk his life for an old book. And to try and grasp the
:20:44. > :20:54.magnitude of the global effect of his work.
:20:54. > :21:03.
:21:03. > :21:07.BIBLE READ IN LATIN. I got lost! OK, I will start again.
:21:07. > :21:13.Doesn't make any sense at all! And it wouldn't have made much sense
:21:13. > :21:20.500 years ago either. But in the early 16th century, the church only
:21:20. > :21:28.allowed the Bible to be heard in Latin. And that's what Tyndale
:21:28. > :21:32.considered to be so desperately unfair. He was greatly frustrated
:21:32. > :21:36.particularly with the clergy who themselves that had little
:21:36. > :21:39.knowledge of Latin. He was disturbed that the Lutton as they
:21:39. > :21:43.read entrench they hardly knew themselves and it was that which
:21:43. > :21:47.caused him on one occasion to say I am going to cause the plough boy
:21:47. > :21:50.that pushes the power to know more of the scriptures than you do so he
:21:50. > :21:54.set about translating the scriptures in a way that would be
:21:54. > :22:04.ready familiar, domestic and readily understandable but Auden
:22:04. > :22:05.
:22:05. > :22:08.rid people. -- ordinary people. an academic, I believe that
:22:08. > :22:11.knowledge should be shared by everyone. Actually, Tyndale's very
:22:11. > :22:13.much a man after my own heart. Which is actually one of the
:22:13. > :22:18.expressions he invented for his translation of the Bible Along with
:22:18. > :22:21.'signs of the times'... 'broken- hearted'... 'filthy lucre'... 'the
:22:21. > :22:24.powers that be'... 'let there be light'... 'eat, drink and be
:22:24. > :22:29.merry.' He studied languages to an extremely high level, working in
:22:29. > :22:32.both Oxford and Cambridge. But he began the gargantuan task of
:22:32. > :22:39.translating the Bible into everyday English whilst he was working as a
:22:39. > :22:45.chaplain here in Little Sodbury. Unfortunately, the manor house
:22:45. > :22:49.where he lived isn't ever opened to the public these days. And this
:22:49. > :22:52.tiny place-of-worship in the grounds tumbled down years ago. So
:22:52. > :22:59.visitors have to make do with this little chapel, which is reputed to
:22:59. > :23:01.be a copy of the original church where Tyndale once served. They say
:23:01. > :23:09.that the oldest stonework was brought here from the ruins, along
:23:09. > :23:16.with the bell, which sadly has since been replaced. But an
:23:16. > :23:19.archaeologist is never off-duty. Look what I've just found. This
:23:19. > :23:29.could be the original clapper from the bell that Tyndale would've
:23:29. > :23:35.
:23:35. > :23:41.As he continued in his task of translating the Bible, Tyndale
:23:41. > :23:45.realised his life was now in danger. The church authorities had labelled
:23:45. > :23:51.him a Heretic and in 1524 he fled to Germany so he could work in
:23:51. > :23:57.hiding. Two years later, he completed his English New Testament
:23:57. > :24:02.and the first copies were printed. To get these Bibles back to England,
:24:02. > :24:05.they had to be smuggled illegally by Tyndale's supporters. To get an
:24:05. > :24:07.insight into the risks taken by Tyndale's friends, we've filmed an
:24:07. > :24:17.anonymous interview with a present day Bible smuggler about the
:24:17. > :24:20.
:24:20. > :24:24.countries where it's still illegal to own a Bible in your own language.
:24:24. > :24:34.Obviously, there are places in Asia, throughout the Middle East and
:24:34. > :24:37.
:24:37. > :24:39.North Africa. To be more precise, we are taking things into the
:24:39. > :24:42.country where the Bibles are illegal and the punishments can be
:24:42. > :24:45.very severe. When any of Tyndale's Bibles that were discovered in
:24:45. > :24:48.England, they were confiscated and burned. Very few survived. In fact,
:24:48. > :24:52.there are now only three known copies anywhere in the world. And
:24:52. > :24:58.until 1994, one of them was kept here in the lecture hall where I
:24:58. > :25:06.teach every day. This building used to be the Bristol Baptist College.
:25:06. > :25:08.And inside two secure safes, they stored Tyndale's Bible. It was
:25:08. > :25:18.bought by the British Library for over �1 million, the most they've
:25:18. > :25:22.ever paid for a single volume. This is a copy, of course. Look how
:25:22. > :25:26.small it is. It was deliberately designed to be hidden, to be
:25:26. > :25:29.smuggled, to be kept in a back pocket. But despite his attempts to
:25:29. > :25:32.keep his work secret, in 1535 Tyndale was betrayed to the
:25:32. > :25:37.authorities. A year later, in Belgium, he was strangled and burnt
:25:37. > :25:47.at the stake. His dying words were reported to be, "Lord open the eyes
:25:47. > :25:48.
:25:48. > :25:51.of the King." The painful irony is that within three years of his
:25:51. > :25:53.death, Henry VIII ordered that a translated Bible be placed in every
:25:53. > :26:03.parish church in England, largely based on Tyndale's original
:26:03. > :26:03.
:26:03. > :26:13.translation. And just a generation later, the King James Bible, as we
:26:13. > :26:14.
:26:14. > :26:20.know it toda, was published, using a huge proportion of Tyndale's work.
:26:20. > :26:23.Scholars have debated this, but it seems clear that at least 70% and
:26:23. > :26:29.possibly 90% of what he translated was carried over into the King
:26:29. > :26:33.James Bible. So there is a very enduring quality about the way he
:26:33. > :26:37.translated the scriptures. And the language? The cluster Trevor
:26:37. > :26:44.Buchanan has become the English language? One would like to think
:26:44. > :26:47.so. -- the Gloucestershire of the vernacular. There is this
:26:48. > :26:54.delightful domesticity about his translation which appeals to the
:26:54. > :27:02.ordinary man in the pew and the people, the boy driving the prowl,
:27:02. > :27:05.as he said. They would have grasped what he was to have been about.
:27:05. > :27:08.boy that driveth the plough" uses much more sophisticated equipment
:27:08. > :27:11.these days. It's a tragedy that he never lived to see his vision
:27:11. > :27:21.fulfilled. But eventually Tyndale's dream, that anyone should be able
:27:21. > :27:25.
:27:25. > :27:35.to read and understand the Bible for themselves, came true. A sower
:27:35. > :27:36.
:27:36. > :27:40.went out.... The fowls of the air devoured it. Some fell upon a
:27:40. > :27:48.rock... I can't help feeling that Tyndale would approve of our 21st
:27:48. > :27:52.century ploughboy using YouTube to spread his word. And others fell on
:27:52. > :27:55.good ground and sprang up... Towering above the Cotswold Edge at
:27:56. > :28:01.North Nibley is Tyndale's Monument. But this isn't the memorial that
:28:01. > :28:04.affects most people. His real legacy was to lay the foundations
:28:04. > :28:14.for a global language using his everyday Gloucestershire English in
:28:14. > :28:19.
