. The first thing I can remember is him saying that he thought that I | :00:07. | :00:14. | |
should kiss him and then he leaned over and he started kissing my face | :00:15. | :00:19. | |
and on my lips. A nightmare end to a night on the tiles. We're on the | :00:20. | :00:25. | |
trail of the bogus taxi drivers. Also, the feral city kittens, | :00:26. | :00:32. | |
desperate for a new home. It's a throw`away society, you don't want | :00:33. | :00:36. | |
your cat any more and you throw it out then that cat multi`plies. We | :00:37. | :00:42. | |
follow their escape to the country. I'm Mary Rhodes and this is Inside | :00:43. | :00:53. | |
Out. De Out. Could you accept a lift from a stranger? I think most would | :00:54. | :00:58. | |
say no, but after a few too many drinks it appears many people are | :00:59. | :01:01. | |
doing that. Police in Birmingham say that people risk being ripped off at | :01:02. | :01:06. | |
best, and at worst, young women have been sexually assaulted after | :01:07. | :01:10. | |
climbing into cars that they have flagged down. Anthony Bartram has | :01:11. | :01:15. | |
been given collusive access to a new undercover police unit set up to | :01:16. | :01:22. | |
stop dodgy drivers. Are you free tonight? Cheers, mate. There are | :01:23. | :01:34. | |
some cap drivers and no business to pick you up. Most are in it to make | :01:35. | :01:39. | |
quick cash and others have a darker motive, setting out to lure, | :01:40. | :01:48. | |
vulnerable, often drunken, lone women. They are known as pliers. | :01:49. | :01:53. | |
It's Friday night. Birmingham's buzzing. You're quite suspicious of | :01:54. | :01:58. | |
this guy? Yeah. In a few hours they'll be looking for a ride home. | :01:59. | :02:02. | |
Have you flagged down a private vehicle to get home? No. Because? | :02:03. | :02:07. | |
It's not safe. When you go home, what are the plans? Black cabs down | :02:08. | :02:14. | |
the road. That's the answer P David Humperson and his team want to hear. | :02:15. | :02:20. | |
Far too many pub and club`goers aren't thinking carefully enough. | :02:21. | :02:24. | |
Have you flagged down a private hire? In Manchester we have. And not | :02:25. | :02:31. | |
a taxi. ? Yeah. Do you know the safety implications there? No. No, | :02:32. | :02:35. | |
we didn't. The most important difference is that only Hackney | :02:36. | :02:40. | |
drivers can legally pick you up without booking of the private`hire | :02:41. | :02:45. | |
cabs are breaking the law, but the police are more worried about the | :02:46. | :02:51. | |
passengers. They'll take the chance. There's the driver and there nose | :02:52. | :02:54. | |
record of the journey or audit trail or backing, so therefore the driver | :02:55. | :02:58. | |
knows that and can take advantage of the female in her drunken state. The | :02:59. | :03:02. | |
police are not out to scare people, but when you hear about some of the | :03:03. | :03:07. | |
cases they've dealt with, the message really hits home. You don't | :03:08. | :03:10. | |
think when you're drunk. You just decide you're going home and getting | :03:11. | :03:16. | |
the closest taxi to get home. The car Sarah got into wasn't a cab at | :03:17. | :03:22. | |
all. You hear about stories, but I didn't think it was that common at | :03:23. | :03:30. | |
all. You all right, love? I thought you just have to be really unlucky, | :03:31. | :03:35. | |
but it shows me that it's easy to end up in that situation through no | :03:36. | :03:41. | |
fault of your own. You are just trying to get home. Unfortunately, I | :03:42. | :03:50. | |
didn't make it. The 19`year`old admits she had had way too much to | :03:51. | :03:53. | |
drink and didn't appreciate the risk she was taking by leaving the club | :03:54. | :03:59. | |
alone. When I get in a taxi that's when I relax and I'm, oh my feet are | :04:00. | :04:05. | |
hurting, it's so good to sit down, knowing you're on the way home. | :04:06. | :04:09. | |
That's what I would have been like that night. Sarah is one of 75 women | :04:10. | :04:15. | |
who have been sexually assaulted while trying to get home from nights | :04:16. | :04:18. | |
out in Birmingham in the past two years. It's like he planned it as | :04:19. | :04:28. | |
soon as I got in. He took me off to the complete opposite direction of | :04:29. | :04:31. | |
where I'd asked to go, but I didn't know the area, so I didn't know he | :04:32. | :04:37. | |
had gone the wrong way. Shakeel Ahmed had been prowlling up and down | :04:38. | :04:42. | |
Broad Street looking for a victim half the night. This bogus driver | :04:43. | :04:48. | |
was jailed before Christmas for five years for serious sexual assault | :04:49. | :04:52. | |
that he put Sarah through. The first thing I can remember is him saying | :04:53. | :04:58. | |
he thought that I should kiss him. Then he leaned over from the | :04:59. | :05:02. | |
drivers' side on to the passenger seat where I was sat and he started | :05:03. | :05:07. | |
kissing my face and on my lips. That's when I started panicking | :05:08. | :05:12. | |
feeling really uncomfortable. I remember clutching the sides of the | :05:13. | :05:16. | |
seat and just sitting there. I didn't really know what to do. I | :05:17. | :05:20. | |
just thought at that point it would have been best just to sit there and | :05:21. | :05:25. | |
let him carry on, because I thought I would end up in a worse situation | :05:26. | :05:30. | |
if I fought and tried to push him away and stuff. It's 11.00pm and the | :05:31. | :05:40. | |
taxi orcement team are out looking for pliers. Chris Neville is in | :05:41. | :05:44. | |
charge. What difference does it make? If you just get into a | :05:45. | :05:48. | |
private`hire car that you haven't booked, the journey isn't insured, | :05:49. | :05:53. | |
so you are putting yourself at risk and you must always book a | :05:54. | :06:00. | |
private`hire vehicle in advance. While 75 attacks in two years is a | :06:01. | :06:06. | |
worry, most of the city's 1300 legit cabs and 4,500 minicabs are working | :06:07. | :06:12. | |
hard. They want the rogues off the road. They are breaking the law and | :06:13. | :06:18. | |
they've got no part. You watch after 12.00am they'll be all over the | :06:19. | :06:21. | |
place. The police have to be more strict in the city centre. Not just | :06:22. | :06:25. | |
unofficial drivers without the plate and everything, but you've got | :06:26. | :06:29. | |
official drivers picking up people who they're not booked for. They're | :06:30. | :06:32. | |
looking for suspected pliers and it's not long before Chris and his | :06:33. | :06:37. | |
officers move in. They call this scarecrowing. It's like a scarecrow | :06:38. | :06:43. | |
driving the birds away. As soon as they see officers in yellow coats | :06:44. | :06:48. | |
they will tend to clear. Those who don't, get a talking to. We are from | :06:49. | :06:54. | |
the Taxi Licencing Office. Are you plying for hire? That one was a | :06:55. | :07:00. | |
private hire and he said he had dropped the passengers off and he | :07:01. | :07:03. | |
wasn't waiting, but he was. He was very keen to drive off as soon as he | :07:04. | :07:08. | |
realised what we were doing. There's an opportunity for them to check the | :07:09. | :07:13. | |
cars are safe and properly licenced. Almost 900 failed road`worthing | :07:14. | :07:19. | |
tests this year and 42% of those stopped breached licencing | :07:20. | :07:21. | |
conditions, but there's another side to this operation. The drivers won't | :07:22. | :07:27. | |
see this coming. As you saw, as soon as we showed up, the rogue drivers | :07:28. | :07:32. | |
made themselves pretty scarce, so I'm going out with a group of | :07:33. | :07:35. | |
undercover officers to find out what they're really up to. Wearing a | :07:36. | :07:49. | |
hidden camera I'm tagging along for the ride. We're about to head out to | :07:50. | :07:52. | |
look for some of the rogue drivers. How easy do you think it will be be? | :07:53. | :07:58. | |
Fairly easy. Especially around areas like this. There are lots of | :07:59. | :08:03. | |
students and they are out. It's midnight and we're posing as friends | :08:04. | :08:06. | |
looking for a ride home from the pub. Keeping an eye on us is another | :08:07. | :08:12. | |
secret policeman in an unmarked car. Hi, mate. Are you free? You'll have | :08:13. | :08:18. | |
to book, do you know? Could you take us home, could you? The first few | :08:19. | :08:24. | |
drivers are playing by the rules, insisting that we book them. But it | :08:25. | :08:28. | |
doesn't take long to find our first plier. Hiya. Are you free, mate? How | :08:29. | :08:38. | |
much is it? That will be great. Brilliant. Thank you. Cheers, mate. | :08:39. | :08:45. | |
We're on the move when the spotter is close behind. | :08:46. | :08:57. | |
These sting operations have been running since September with 20 | :08:58. | :09:02. | |
teams of specially trained constables. While this suspect is | :09:03. | :09:06. | |
being dealt with, I join two more officers just after 1.00am for | :09:07. | :09:10. | |
another private`hire driver hanging around. Are you free, brother? He | :09:11. | :09:16. | |
agrees to take us without a booking. The team are rolling again. We don't | :09:17. | :09:21. | |
get far before the police move in to pull us over, but at this stage he | :09:22. | :09:27. | |
has no idea there's a couple of cops and reporter on board. | :09:28. | :09:43. | |
The game is up for our driver and the council's lice licence `` | :09:44. | :09:52. | |
licencing officers can take it from here. The officers in the back are | :09:53. | :09:57. | |
police officers. There we are, second driver of the night, picking | :09:58. | :10:01. | |
us up off the streets. He faces losing his licence now, all for a | :10:02. | :10:07. | |
?10 fare. And to cap it all, our cabbie now needs to call a taxi | :10:08. | :10:11. | |
himself because his car has been seized. Every time the undercover | :10:12. | :10:17. | |
teams go out, they catch a few more. It's happening because people are | :10:18. | :10:21. | |
willing to take a gamble and perhaps the best advice comes from someone | :10:22. | :10:28. | |
who gambled and lost. I have had a few panic attacks over things and I | :10:29. | :10:32. | |
just get scared a lot now. I can see the dangers in everything at the | :10:33. | :10:37. | |
minute. It's still quite fresh in my mind. If you've been affected by any | :10:38. | :10:45. | |
of the issues in the film or want to know how to avoid being the victim | :10:46. | :10:48. | |
of a bogus driver then go to the website. | :10:49. | :10:58. | |
Coming up later ` how a job as a Midlands mouser could be the answer | :10:59. | :11:07. | |
to London's feral cat crisis, but first, Joseph Carey Merrick, better | :11:08. | :11:11. | |
known as the Elephant Man was born in Leicester 150 years ago. The film | :11:12. | :11:17. | |
starring John Hurt and Anthony Hopkins made his famous, but we know | :11:18. | :11:23. | |
very little of the conditions that caused his deformities. Now, new | :11:24. | :11:29. | |
research could shed new light not only on his condition, but the | :11:30. | :11:39. | |
causes of cancer. # I am not an animal... Joseph Merrick was | :11:40. | :11:45. | |
intelligent, articulate and likeable, yet because of his | :11:46. | :11:49. | |
appearance he's gone down in history as the Elephant Man, shunned and | :11:50. | :11:51. | |
avoided and attacked and abused. These are Joseph Merrick's bones. | :11:52. | :12:06. | |
Inside Out has been granted rare access to film them and the casts | :12:07. | :12:13. | |
taken from his body. Merrick left his remains to science, but previous | :12:14. | :12:19. | |
attempts to extract DNA failed because the skeleton was bleached to | :12:20. | :12:25. | |
clean it. Now, 125 years after his death, new techniques mean these | :12:26. | :12:29. | |
bones may finally yield their secrets. He suffered from a very | :12:30. | :12:36. | |
severe form of overgrowth, where the tissues in certain portions and | :12:37. | :12:41. | |
parts of his body were massively overgrown, hence the reference to an | :12:42. | :12:46. | |
elephant. Other parts of his body actually had quite a normal | :12:47. | :12:50. | |
appearance. This tells us that whatever the underlying genetic | :12:51. | :12:54. | |
problem was, it is one that his relevant to the fundamentals of the | :12:55. | :12:59. | |
way in which a cell grows and knows when to stop growing. The research | :13:00. | :13:06. | |
has barely begun, but already there's huge excitement about what | :13:07. | :13:12. | |
may be uncovered. Whilst I wouldn't predict that Merrick is sitting on | :13:13. | :13:16. | |
the cure for cancer, it is through studies of this nature that we will | :13:17. | :13:19. | |
have a better understanding of what it is determines how a cell moves | :13:20. | :13:24. | |
from a normal state into this abnormal process of disregulated | :13:25. | :13:31. | |
cell growth. Merrick's story fascinates people across the world. | :13:32. | :13:36. | |
Jeanette Sitton and stroS stroS have been researching why he continues to | :13:37. | :13:41. | |
intrigue us. `` Mae Siu`Wae Stroshane have been researching why | :13:42. | :13:45. | |
he continues to intrigue us. He was very brave and it makes us feel that | :13:46. | :13:49. | |
if Joseph could be brave like that, in the face of everything that's | :13:50. | :13:53. | |
going on with him, then perhaps that would give me some inspiration to | :13:54. | :13:59. | |
cope with my own problems in life. I was an orphan in Hong Kong and | :14:00. | :14:03. | |
adopted so I went through abandonment and had to grow up | :14:04. | :14:10. | |
feeling that finding my own quest for inner worth and self`worth and | :14:11. | :14:18. | |
humanity. There have been many theories about Herrick's condition | :14:19. | :14:22. | |
`` Merrick's condition. We can't be sure what it was, but it may have | :14:23. | :14:30. | |
been Proteus syndrome, an overgrowth of bones named after a Greek sea God | :14:31. | :14:35. | |
who changed shape. There are several related illnesses and despite | :14:36. | :14:41. | |
changes in our attitudes they're hard to endure. We have | :14:42. | :14:48. | |
unfortunately had one suicide of a young man in his 20s because of the | :14:49. | :14:53. | |
difficulties he had of living with the Proteus`related condition. We | :14:54. | :14:58. | |
have helped some other families whose late teenagers were finding it | :14:59. | :15:03. | |
difficult to deal with and had suicidal thoughts. It isn't | :15:04. | :15:07. | |
something that goes away. It can get more difficult as the years go on | :15:08. | :15:14. | |
and equally into older life. Joseph Merrick was born in the Midlands on | :15:15. | :15:18. | |
what is now a very unremarkable street in Leicester. Thousands walk | :15:19. | :15:22. | |
through it without realising it's the birthplace of such an | :15:23. | :15:29. | |
extraordinary individual. Inside Out has asked two historians, Richard kl | :15:30. | :15:35. | |
Gill and Stephen butt to devise a Merrick tour. And the first person | :15:36. | :15:42. | |
to experience it is Jon Merrick, a descendant of Joseph. People come | :15:43. | :15:48. | |
from all over the world to see the birthplace of Joseph Merrick. And it | :15:49. | :15:54. | |
was here. We are outside what would have been the last house on these | :15:55. | :16:00. | |
streets and he was born in the last`but`one, but no house, no | :16:01. | :16:06. | |
street, no plaque. How would he have been treated in the early days? Very | :16:07. | :16:11. | |
badly. His step`mother more or less threw him out of the house. He was | :16:12. | :16:14. | |
sent out to hawk ribbons and other things on doorsteps, but doors were | :16:15. | :16:22. | |
slammed in his face. What with doors slammed in his face and jeered at in | :16:23. | :16:26. | |
the street and stones thrown at him, he made no money. One day he came | :16:27. | :16:31. | |
home having made nothing and his father beat him savagely. That | :16:32. | :16:38. | |
decided it. He left home and voluntarily went to the work deserve | :16:39. | :16:44. | |
house. `` workhouse. In 1884 he left the work house and this is where he | :16:45. | :16:50. | |
came. This is the famous theatre of variety, the Gaiety Palace of | :16:51. | :16:55. | |
Varieties. The landlord was Sam Torr. Not a lot left here now. It | :16:56. | :17:02. | |
must have been a bit like King Kong, only instead of a glile la, it was | :17:03. | :17:08. | |
`` gorilla, it was Joseph Merrick. He stood tall and appeared on stage | :17:09. | :17:11. | |
and warned the people behind the curtain was a terrible creature and | :17:12. | :17:16. | |
he couldn't guarantee the safety of the audience and then the drums | :17:17. | :17:23. | |
would roll and for poor Joseph Carey Merrick it was a living. Probably | :17:24. | :17:28. | |
the only living he could make, given his circumstances at the time. He | :17:29. | :17:33. | |
chose to go into the theatre, didn't he? I think Joseph has left us two | :17:34. | :17:47. | |
legacies, one is his remains. Hopefully they'll actually lead to | :17:48. | :17:53. | |
people being cured or relieved of various conditions. He also leaves a | :17:54. | :18:04. | |
story which is being used to help breakdown precedence. I am not an | :18:05. | :18:09. | |
animal, I am a human being. Joseph Merrick's status as an iconic | :18:10. | :18:23. | |
figure of Victorian London is assured and in his Leicester home | :18:24. | :18:27. | |
town there are now serious proposals being considered for a permanent | :18:28. | :18:31. | |
memorial. But perhaps the most valuable legacy of this amazing man | :18:32. | :18:37. | |
would be a scientist to unlock the secrets of his disorder and use them | :18:38. | :18:41. | |
to develop treatments for cancers and disfigurements. | :18:42. | :18:50. | |
Peaceful, beautiful and tranquil. Welcome to the Cotswolds. It's easy | :18:51. | :18:57. | |
to see why living here would appeal, but it's offering a solution to a | :18:58. | :19:02. | |
problem in the capital. Animal welfare charities estimate there are | :19:03. | :19:05. | |
tens of thousands of feral cats living in London. They don't make | :19:06. | :19:10. | |
great house pets so normally they would be put down, but one charity | :19:11. | :19:14. | |
is offering them a job as a mouser in the Midlands. It could be an | :19:15. | :19:21. | |
answer to London's cat crisis. Jonny Pitts has been to find out. From the | :19:22. | :19:27. | |
corners of the city streets, they watch. Piercing eyes, sharp teeth | :19:28. | :19:34. | |
and even sharper claws. You can't put your washing out. They're there | :19:35. | :19:38. | |
and running at the back door. Huge gangs of them ready to pounce on | :19:39. | :19:49. | |
their unsuspecting prey. Cats. Yep, that's right, feral cats. There are | :19:50. | :19:52. | |
thousands of them here in London and a problem has reached crisis point. | :19:53. | :19:58. | |
It's a throw`away society. If you don't want your cat you throw it | :19:59. | :20:03. | |
out. Don't get it newted. That cat will multiply and we end up with | :20:04. | :20:06. | |
hundreds here. In a matter of months we have 20 cats. We are here away | :20:07. | :20:13. | |
about how a move to the Midlands can save the lives of London's strays. I | :20:14. | :20:18. | |
am here in wale them stow, because the tail starts here `` Walthamstow, | :20:19. | :20:26. | |
because the tail starts here, sorry. When did it start? One cat had a | :20:27. | :20:33. | |
litter and then they bred from then. That was about three or four years | :20:34. | :20:36. | |
ago. This has been going out. Now they've come across to my side of | :20:37. | :20:41. | |
the road and as you can see there are some cats out there they've been | :20:42. | :20:49. | |
breeding and breeding. As you can see, there's about 15 out there at | :20:50. | :20:53. | |
the moment. You've got three little kittens. That one is pregnant at the | :20:54. | :20:58. | |
moment. That is the Tom that is inpregnating them all. He doesn't | :20:59. | :21:03. | |
belong to the ferals. He's the culprit? Yeah. Now, the cats are | :21:04. | :21:09. | |
starting to get sick. In fact, it's got so bad, she has had to call in | :21:10. | :21:14. | |
the cat cavalry to help. Hopefully the idea will be they'll come around | :21:15. | :21:18. | |
this side, so they're probably going to see them standing around this end | :21:19. | :21:22. | |
first off until they work out where the entrance is to the trap. Then | :21:23. | :21:26. | |
hopefully once there inside they'll step on this to act viT so the doors | :21:27. | :21:35. | |
swing close. `` activate it so the doors swing close. It doesn't take | :21:36. | :21:40. | |
long. They'll come close. They are used to see people, but not used to | :21:41. | :21:44. | |
being handled. They're going in. What do you do now? Hopefully he'll | :21:45. | :21:49. | |
stand on the trap in the right place. He's quite light, so | :21:50. | :21:55. | |
hopefully he's all right. We might have a bit of difficulty with this | :21:56. | :21:59. | |
one. Now that one has gone in... Oh, wow. That's one. Number two. Six. | :22:00. | :22:12. | |
This is going quite well. Not too bad. Sometimes it's really easy. | :22:13. | :22:19. | |
It's easy if there's a lot of cats to start with. It can be difficult | :22:20. | :22:24. | |
if there's one or two that you're after. Hayley, what happens if | :22:25. | :22:30. | |
you're not able to rehome the cats in The tough reality is they would | :22:31. | :22:33. | |
have to be put to sleep if we don't have the homes readily available for | :22:34. | :22:38. | |
them. But there are those who are busy house hunting for the cats and | :22:39. | :22:42. | |
these days they're looking outside of the city. Over the years, it's | :22:43. | :22:50. | |
really become less and less feasible to resite them back to where they're | :22:51. | :22:58. | |
from. That's where SNIP has become a specialist finding them a future | :22:59. | :23:01. | |
away from the city and we found the best way is to be out in the | :23:02. | :23:09. | |
country, in a stables or a farm. In her spare time, Hayley also | :23:10. | :23:16. | |
volunteers as a driver for the cat rehoming charity, SNIP. We have | :23:17. | :23:24. | |
success seal and Stanley `` Cecille and Stanley. They are brother and | :23:25. | :23:28. | |
sister. They came from a feral colony in Tottenham. It's a bleak | :23:29. | :23:33. | |
future in the urban situation. There's a lot of deG gation and | :23:34. | :23:38. | |
there's an increasing rise in cruelty and people who don't want | :23:39. | :23:41. | |
them around, obviously, because of noise or smell or whatever it may be | :23:42. | :23:47. | |
and I can understand that in a built`up city. What parts of the | :23:48. | :23:52. | |
country do you rehome? We have done a lot in the colts woelds and in | :23:53. | :23:59. | |
decommission `` Cotswolds and in and around the Midlands, Stratford, | :24:00. | :24:03. | |
Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire. We have been all over. The two cats are | :24:04. | :24:14. | |
going from Cockney kitties to colts Cotswold kitties. We need them for | :24:15. | :24:19. | |
vermin control. This time of year is when all the mice and the furies | :24:20. | :24:23. | |
start to come in. We have chickens on the yard, so they attract vermin | :24:24. | :24:29. | |
too. It's perfect having a couple of feral cats on the yard. They are | :24:30. | :24:34. | |
quite entertaining too. There will be some things to get used to. I bet | :24:35. | :24:43. | |
you don't see many of these on the Tottenham Court Road. How feral are | :24:44. | :24:47. | |
they? Fairly timid to say the least. We have Stanley and Cecille. They're | :24:48. | :25:00. | |
about four to five months old. Inside Andrew has rereceived a prime | :25:01. | :25:04. | |
spot for them. They're own flushy cat penthouse. The idea of releasing | :25:05. | :25:10. | |
up here is they can get their Barings. It's good, because they | :25:11. | :25:14. | |
have a good view. We normally have the haystacks, so it will be a | :25:15. | :25:17. | |
natural ladder for them. I think it will be great and it's out of the | :25:18. | :25:21. | |
wind so it will be nice. It is. The cats will live in the cage for ten | :25:22. | :25:26. | |
days to adjust to their new surroundings before Andrew will be | :25:27. | :25:29. | |
allowed to let them out. The only challenge now is getting them into | :25:30. | :25:35. | |
their new home. Stanley is straight in there, but Cecille proves a | :25:36. | :25:40. | |
little more reluctant. After a little persuasion, she's in. Make | :25:41. | :25:50. | |
sure you're feeding them twice a day. On the tenth day try to release | :25:51. | :25:54. | |
them early evening when it's quiet around and no dogs and things awell. | :25:55. | :25:59. | |
It's mission accomplished for Hayley as he heads back to London. Yeah, I | :26:00. | :26:04. | |
think it's a really nice feeling and I know they'll be safe here. There's | :26:05. | :26:08. | |
no main roads, no train lines, which there would be in London. They're | :26:09. | :26:12. | |
going to have a really nice life here. Ten days later and our cameras | :26:13. | :26:19. | |
are back for the big release. We don't see them very much. It's funny | :26:20. | :26:23. | |
when I come in, in the morning and put the light on, I can see | :26:24. | :26:26. | |
testimony bouncing around in the cage, but as soon as I come this | :26:27. | :26:30. | |
end, they're gone, disappeared into the corner. How will they react once | :26:31. | :26:40. | |
the door to freedom is open? I'll leave the cage open and put the | :26:41. | :26:45. | |
fresh food outside. And after a careful sniff around, it's all | :26:46. | :26:48. | |
systems go as the kittens explore their new home. Well, our Cockney | :26:49. | :26:57. | |
kittens have been living their country lifestyle for just over a | :26:58. | :27:01. | |
month now, so I've come to see how they're settling into their new | :27:02. | :27:09. | |
home. How are you? Good. Nice to see you again. And you. How are the cats | :27:10. | :27:13. | |
getting on and where are they? Somewhere up there, but getting on | :27:14. | :27:18. | |
really well. They are hunting and they're very active. We don't see | :27:19. | :27:21. | |
that much of them in the day time. Other than feeding time. But the two | :27:22. | :27:27. | |
of them, they seem to have settled in. They haven't gone very far. Do | :27:28. | :27:32. | |
they manage to bring things back? They have. They've started. Not a | :27:33. | :27:36. | |
lot. They're still young. Hopefully they won't bring any, because we | :27:37. | :27:41. | |
won't have any. How does it feel to know you've saved these cats from | :27:42. | :27:45. | |
being put down? It feels really good. It's quite gratifying. It's | :27:46. | :27:50. | |
rewarding seeing them develop as well. And to know that ` because I | :27:51. | :27:56. | |
didn't know and I wasn't aware, that so many were being destroyed. We | :27:57. | :28:06. | |
wanted pest control and SNIN have given them a home and provided a new | :28:07. | :28:18. | |
life. It really feels good. Maybe you've got a story that I should | :28:19. | :28:22. | |
hear about. If so, drop me an e`mail. | :28:23. | :28:24. | |
I would love to hear from you. That's it for this week. I'll see | :28:25. | :28:28. | |
you next time. Goodbye for now. We we veal how many more people are | :28:29. | :28:51. | |
stealing gas and hecktry due to rises prices. That's next Monday on | :28:52. | :28:55. | |
Inside Out. Hello, I'm Ellie Crisell with your | :28:56. | :29:06. | |
90-second update. The PM has backed fracking. He's | :29:07. | :29:10. | |
promised councils incentives if they let companies drill for shale gas. | :29:11. | :29:14. | |
Critics have called the offer a bribe, but the Government claims the | :29:15. | :29:17. | |
process will give us cheaper energy. More at 10pm. | :29:18. | :29:19. | |
