Overcrowded and outdated — the secondary school by its former | :00:21. | :00:25. | |
head—teacher. Nake ambition — why Guernsey sports stars are dropping | :00:25. | :00:32. | |
their clothes to raise awareness. And doing battle with the weather | :00:32. | :00:35. | |
but the clouds did eventually part displays, see the highlights later | :00:35. | :00:49. | |
in the programme. Good when I am older, I'm going to fly one of them. | :00:50. | :00:59. | |
Two generations of Jersey students have been let down, according to the | :00:59. | :01:03. | |
former head teacher of one of the recommended for Les Quennevais | :01:03. | :01:08. | |
School in 2001 — and cash made available — but it never happened. | :01:08. | :01:11. | |
Now the Education department has announced a rebuild in the west | :01:11. | :01:15. | |
Now the Education department has the island could be on the cards. | :01:15. | :01:17. | |
Since 1966 Les Quennevais school has been teaching students in the west | :01:17. | :01:20. | |
of the island. But while all the other states—run secondary schools | :01:20. | :01:23. | |
have been majorly modernised and subjects taught today, and its too | :01:23. | :01:31. | |
small for it's 800 students, nearly double the amount it was originally | :01:31. | :01:38. | |
built for. We have chopped and changed things over the years to | :01:38. | :01:49. | |
accommodate increased numbers but we haven't been able to accommodate the | :01:49. | :01:52. | |
new curriculum. Since it was meant whole generations of children who | :01:52. | :01:55. | |
have gone through before anything is even done. Those refurbishment plans | :01:55. | :01:58. | |
were recommended in 2001 and cash was set aside. That is the real | :01:58. | :02:00. | |
tragedy, for those young people was set aside. That is the real | :02:00. | :02:03. | |
could have had something But due to other States priorities, the work | :02:03. | :02:05. | |
never happened. Now the education minister says a rebuild is the only | :02:06. | :02:12. | |
option. But you didn't. It is urgent that we crack on but because this is | :02:12. | :02:18. | |
biggest investment in a secondary school for many, many years, we | :02:18. | :02:24. | |
biggest investment in a secondary millions of pounds here of public | :02:24. | :02:25. | |
money, we have to make sure it is right. We have to get the right | :02:25. | :02:29. | |
side. And that site, he says is likely to be in St Brelade. If | :02:29. | :02:32. | |
funding is secured and the project gets the go ahead work could start | :02:32. | :02:39. | |
Guernsey and Jersey won't be working together to create a new aircraft | :02:39. | :02:44. | |
registry. The idea was that it would attract private pilots to register | :02:44. | :02:45. | |
their planes here — providing a attract private pilots to register | :02:45. | :02:49. | |
source of income for the Channel Islands. But it's been decided it | :02:49. | :02:52. | |
isn't workable — prompting criticism from Jersey's Scrutiny Panel that | :02:52. | :02:56. | |
Dozens of recordings of Guernsey French have been made as part of | :02:56. | :03:20. | |
efforts to ensure the language doesn't die out. It's part of the | :03:20. | :03:23. | |
work of the Island's newly formed Language Commission. They'd like to | :03:23. | :03:26. | |
do more but there isn't enough Getting in the party mood with a | :03:26. | :03:31. | |
traditional Guernsey dance. And Getting in the party mood with a | :03:31. | :03:35. | |
the same time showing off a bit Getting in the party mood with a | :03:35. | :03:37. | |
our heritage to some visitors from Normandy. A place the Island has | :03:37. | :03:42. | |
strong links to — not least because of the links with Guernsey French. | :03:42. | :03:49. | |
And for those who still speak it, it was a chance for a bit of a natter | :03:49. | :04:00. | |
they're helping to keep the language going. As people who leave this | :04:00. | :04:04. | |
world, who speak Guernsey French, it will be different in years to come. | :04:04. | :04:07. | |
But everyone is trying to speak will be different in years to come. | :04:07. | :04:10. | |
big it is wonderful to keep up the heritage and traditions of the | :04:10. | :04:13. | |
island. But preserving Guernsey French in the long term requires | :04:13. | :04:14. | |
more work. And these recordings French in the long term requires | :04:15. | :04:21. | |
part of it. So far 40 people who speak it have helped created this | :04:21. | :04:25. | |
audio database. Just part of the Island's new Language Commission's | :04:25. | :04:34. | |
recording project if there are not many people left who speak the | :04:34. | :04:37. | |
language and who speak it with sufficient fluency. We have come | :04:37. | :04:45. | |
across some people we were not aware of because of the publicity and | :04:45. | :04:48. | |
across some people we were not aware there are more people than we would | :04:48. | :04:50. | |
like to capture but we need to raise more money because that before we | :04:50. | :04:57. | |
can go and to the next phase. It should help ensure that even if | :04:57. | :05:00. | |
fewer people speak patois, there's a good record of the language. But for | :05:00. | :05:04. | |
now, those that can are doing all You are watching the BBC in the | :05:04. | :05:13. | |
Channel Islands. Still to come, highlights of the air displays from | :05:13. | :05:17. | |
Guernsey and Jersey earlier today and later, why this man has run | :05:17. | :05:24. | |
Guernsey and Jersey earlier today length of Britain, carrying a seven | :05:24. | :05:24. | |
You'll soon be seeing a lot more of some Guernsey sports stars than | :05:24. | :05:33. | |
usual. A poster campaign has been launched, which sees the likes of | :05:33. | :05:36. | |
Guernsey FC's Ryan Zico—Black and professional rugby player Luke Jones | :05:36. | :05:39. | |
strip off, to raise awareness of Hello, I'm Luke Jones from Guernsey. | :05:39. | :05:57. | |
Balls come in all different shapes and sizes. Make sure you know you | :05:57. | :06:00. | |
also go straight to the doctor if message. Checking for early signs of | :06:00. | :06:08. | |
testicular cancer can save lives. As a batsman, it is essential to watch | :06:08. | :06:14. | |
differences with your balls, get to your doctor as quickly as possible. | :06:14. | :06:17. | |
And this new video campaign, which was launched today, will take that | :06:17. | :06:21. | |
message to the Island schools. Featuring some of the Island's | :06:21. | :06:24. | |
sporting stars, it's backed up with posters, portraying a little more of | :06:24. | :06:28. | |
them than we'd usually see. I had a scary few years ago. I know worry it | :06:28. | :06:31. | |
can cause. It is so common with Lance as well. It is worth getting | :06:31. | :06:32. | |
hoping these pictures will make Lance as well. It is worth getting | :06:32. | :06:37. | |
difference. They are talked about knowledge that they are about and if | :06:37. | :06:45. | |
guess if it's the target. Obviously the main target of the campaign | :06:45. | :06:49. | |
guess if it's the target. Obviously men but if it catches the attention | :06:49. | :06:51. | |
of wives and girlfriends too. And perhaps makes us laugh. Then we | :06:51. | :06:54. | |
of wives and girlfriends too. And start nagging as well. And we all | :06:54. | :06:56. | |
know we're very good at that. The video itself is aimed at year eleven | :06:57. | :07:00. | |
students. And for the charity behind it using humour, and some role | :07:00. | :07:05. | |
models was key to making it work. To have those real role models, playing | :07:05. | :07:11. | |
on the sports fields of Guernsey right now, to get people thinking it | :07:11. | :07:13. | |
is OK to talk about this and to right now, to get people thinking it | :07:13. | :07:16. | |
things that may save your life. So the message is out there, and is | :07:16. | :07:26. | |
They say the show must go on and so it did! The annual Air Displays | :07:26. | :07:40. | |
wowed crowds around the Channel Islands today — despite setbacks | :07:40. | :07:43. | |
with some aircraft pulling out due What everyone had come to see. The | :07:43. | :07:53. | |
Red Arrows entertaining the crowds. But earlier today it was still | :07:53. | :07:57. | |
unclear if the show would go on after grey skies threatened the | :07:57. | :08:03. | |
event. And the clouds soon lifted so the crowds could enjoy the sights | :08:03. | :08:07. | |
and sounds of all kinds of military and stunt aircraft. Highlights of | :08:07. | :08:10. | |
the show included the monstrously loud F—16. Even Condor couldn't | :08:10. | :08:21. | |
Mustang. And jaws dropped as the daredevil wing walkers proved how | :08:21. | :08:31. | |
brave they are. The wing walkers are wowing the crowd but what is it | :08:31. | :08:34. | |
brave they are. The wing walkers are to be up there? Earlier, I asked | :08:34. | :08:34. | |
them what what it was like. You to be up there? Earlier, I asked | :08:34. | :08:39. | |
mad if you don't want to do it. to be up there? Earlier, I asked | :08:39. | :08:42. | |
the best feeling in the world. It's the best feeling ever. It's the | :08:42. | :08:44. | |
worlds best roller coasters and the best feeling ever. It's the | :08:44. | :08:50. | |
just want to do it the time. And the Guernsey. In Jersey crowds lined the | :08:50. | :08:54. | |
seafront and everybody's eyes were fixed on the rather cloudy sky. | :08:54. | :08:59. | |
Among the first stars were these planes. They were followed by many | :08:59. | :09:06. | |
more large and small aircraft. This wasn't meant to be part of the | :09:06. | :09:09. | |
display. Like several others, it was drafted in at the last minute and | :09:09. | :09:14. | |
the weather in the UK forced several of the original line—up, including | :09:14. | :09:18. | |
the Battle of Britain Memorial flight, to be withdrawn from both | :09:18. | :09:24. | |
setback, the organiser had to borrow money against his own home to the | :09:24. | :09:29. | |
show could go on. This is the worst cancellations. I'm pleased we have | :09:29. | :09:34. | |
these planes displaying at the moment. The way we were losing them, | :09:34. | :09:36. | |
I was beginning to wonder about moment. The way we were losing them, | :09:36. | :09:39. | |
show. I was concerned about the weather but it has improved. And it | :09:39. | :09:44. | |
seems the crowds agreed. Loving weather but it has improved. And it | :09:44. | :09:50. | |
I love the F—16. I think that's amazing. I love the noise. When | :09:50. | :09:56. | |
I love the F—16. I think that's older, I'm going to fly one of them. | :09:56. | :09:58. | |
And keeping with tradition, the older, I'm going to fly one of them. | :09:58. | :10:02. | |
arrows rounded off the air display in both islands. Always a crowd | :10:02. | :10:11. | |
Hello. Good evening. It is going to turn much more autumnal over the | :10:11. | :10:33. | |
conditions in the second half of the weekend ahead. Colder for the early | :10:33. | :10:36. | |
part of next week. We have some patchy rain around tomorrow. We | :10:36. | :10:39. | |
part of next week. We have some a lot of cloud, most of the day | :10:39. | :10:41. | |
part of next week. We have some cloudy but misty at times with | :10:41. | :10:43. | |
outbreaks of rain, perhaps more persistent rain into the evening. | :10:43. | :10:48. | |
Staying generally quite mild. This weather system becomes slow moving | :10:48. | :10:53. | |
English Channel and little bumps developing means for much of the day | :10:53. | :11:06. | |
tomorrow, lasting into the evening and overnight, into Saturday. A | :11:06. | :11:09. | |
Eventually, especially in the second half of the day, that will all | :11:09. | :11:12. | |
pressure and Saturday promises some dry and bright weather. Some drizzle | :11:12. | :11:15. | |
or light rain possible overnight conditions. Temperature is no lower | :11:15. | :11:23. | |
Tomorrow, briefly we may get some respite through the middle of the | :11:23. | :11:27. | |
day but more persistent rain returns afternoon, it will be wet across the | :11:27. | :11:38. | |
temperature. There is our coastal waters forecast. These are our times | :11:38. | :11:57. | |
of high water. As for our surfers, there isn't a great deal. The surf | :11:57. | :12:09. | |
is likely to be choppy. The outlook Saturday, after a cloudy start with | :12:09. | :12:12. | |
Sunday, for much of the day, it Saturday, after a cloudy start with | :12:12. | :12:22. | |
becoming quite windy. Pressure conditions for the early part of | :12:22. | :12:23. | |
carried out to see if stocks can be replenished to allow the fishery to | :12:23. | :12:39. | |
open next year. Still to come: The Antiques | :12:39. | :12:48. | |
Roadshow comes to Exeter. Thousands turn up to get their treasures | :12:48. | :12:51. | |
valued. Out of the frying pan and into the | :12:51. | :12:57. | |
firing line as the apprentice comes to Axminster. | :12:57. | :13:02. | |
Work is about to begin restoring the Lyme Regis home of the All | :13:02. | :13:09. | |
third John macro who wrote The French Lieutenant's Woman. The | :13:09. | :13:12. | |
house needs major repairs and it is also architecturally significant. | :13:12. | :13:21. | |
The woman who lived there invented a form of artificial stone which | :13:21. | :13:25. | |
revolutionised the eighteenth— century building industry. | :13:25. | :13:31. | |
An 18th century advert by the first inhabitant of this house. An | :13:31. | :13:38. | |
example of Elena code's cast stone. It enabled the stone to be made | :13:38. | :13:43. | |
using —— using mouldings. The embellishments are all made of this | :13:44. | :13:51. | |
fantastic stone. It worked on big and small mouldings and was widely | :13:51. | :13:57. | |
used in the 18th and 19th centuries. But this seaside home is now in a | :13:57. | :14:02. | |
sorry state of repair. The staircase got moved and changed | :14:02. | :14:08. | |
over the years. It has been taken on by the The Landmark Trust which | :14:08. | :14:14. | |
plans to repair and sympathetically let it as a holiday rental. Its | :14:14. | :14:20. | |
last inhabitant was the 20th century author John macro. This is | :14:20. | :14:26. | |
the loveliest room of the house. It was his writing room. It is now in | :14:26. | :14:32. | |
a fairly dilapidated state and has serious structural problems as well. | :14:32. | :14:40. | |
With views out over Lyme Bay, it is here that he finished his most | :14:40. | :14:45. | |
famous novel. He described the cock a simply the most beautiful sea | :14:45. | :14:50. | |
rampart on the south coast of England — Alison time but delicate. | :14:50. | :14:57. | |
You can imagine him here on a wintry day as he described the | :14:57. | :15:01. | |
French Lieutenant's woman. "the figure stood motion this staring | :15:01. | :15:10. | |
out to see...". "a figure from myth more than a fragment of a petty | :15:10. | :15:18. | |
provincial day." urgent repairs are due to start on this romantic Villa | :15:18. | :15:21. | |
next month. We have bat so we need to time it | :15:21. | :15:28. | |
very carefully note —— so as not to disturb them. The structural issues | :15:28. | :15:33. | |
are such that we do not want to leave them another winter. Repairs | :15:33. | :15:37. | |
come at a price. The trust has raised £1.3 million but it still | :15:38. | :15:42. | |
needs another half a million to finish the job. When finished, | :15:42. | :15:44. | |
there will also be a museum. For 36 years, they've been putting | :15:44. | :16:07. | |
their prized possessions in front of the cameras. | :16:07. | :16:11. | |
Today, Exeter was the backdrop for the Antiques Roadshow. | :16:12. | :16:17. | |
The queues stretched around Cathedral Green with people hoping | :16:17. | :16:21. | |
to unearth a hidden history or find a family fortune. They want to know | :16:21. | :16:28. | |
if they keepsake is special. Has the programme's presenter ever | :16:28. | :16:32. | |
brought something of heroin to be valued? Of course I have! You have | :16:32. | :16:38. | |
to take advantage of working on this programme. One of the expat | :16:38. | :16:44. | |
had a look at my engagement ring which I knew was Victorian. I had | :16:44. | :16:50. | |
various bits and bobs that I brought along. None of any value | :16:50. | :16:55. | |
whatsoever. Most objects have come from relatively humble home. But | :16:55. | :17:02. | |
some are plucked from a much grander surroundings. This family | :17:02. | :17:07. | |
has already appeared on Country House Rescue. I brought this bird | :17:07. | :17:12. | |
along which is Tibetan with a crystal body and emeralds and | :17:12. | :17:18. | |
sapphires and various other stones decorating it. Not hugely old, | :17:18. | :17:28. | |
about turn of the century. It is very pretty. Eric Knowles had a | :17:28. | :17:35. | |
close look at how artifacts and many more besides. We are natural | :17:35. | :17:44. | |
borders. Heaven bless who invented the attic or the seller. —— | :17:44. | :17:50. | |
hoarders. We live in an age when everything gets thrown away. I have | :17:50. | :17:55. | |
to say thank you to everyone's ancestors to put things in lofts | :17:55. | :18:02. | |
and keep me in a job. Were any masterpieces found today? You will | :18:02. | :18:06. | |
have to wait to the programme is aired some time next year to find | :18:06. | :18:09. | |
out. You'll probably all have seen the | :18:09. | :18:19. | |
apprentice on TV. Well, a company in Axminster has taken at the idea | :18:19. | :18:26. | |
and is using it to develop a team of management trainees. | :18:26. | :18:29. | |
They have been split into two groups. The losers get to clean the | :18:29. | :18:33. | |
warehouse. This is an amazing opportunity. | :18:33. | :18:45. | |
One week, two teams and a boss to impress. I am in the market for 10 | :18:45. | :18:50. | |
new managers and they had better watch out. You got something very | :18:50. | :18:57. | |
Warren here. What has happened? —— very wrong. He to impress at 10 | :18:57. | :19:06. | |
potential new managers. The stake is glory of failure but | :19:06. | :19:12. | |
no one gets fired. Axminster tall centre is one of the | :19:12. | :19:18. | |
biggest employers in the town —— tool centre. These managers of the | :19:18. | :19:27. | |
future have a challenge to brand and market sausages. I was | :19:27. | :19:35. | |
expecting them to sell lots of sausages and they have sold one | :19:35. | :19:39. | |
metric tonne. That is a lot of sausages. I couldn't get to sleep | :19:40. | :19:46. | |
and home at 9 o'clock at night. It has been full on and I have been | :19:47. | :19:53. | |
thinking of sausages 24/7. For the sausage supplier, a brief to be | :19:53. | :20:00. | |
tough. We had a meeting which was starchy and then when we did the | :20:00. | :20:06. | |
production we were a little less hard on them, put it that way. | :20:06. | :20:12. | |
There is a serious message behind this apprentice Style Challenge. | :20:12. | :20:17. | |
The company takes its staff and his feature seriously. I have been | :20:17. | :20:23. | |
there seven years. I have known it from a little shop in town to what | :20:23. | :20:28. | |
it is now and it is exciting to be a prospect. I want to push it | :20:28. | :20:33. | |
forward and make it bigger. The teams will be called to the | :20:33. | :20:37. | |
boardroom at 730 tomorrow morning to find out who wins an all— | :20:37. | :20:43. | |
expenses trip to London and to get to clean up the warehouse. | :20:43. | :21:05. | |
Tony Phoenix—Morrison arrived in London this morning after | :21:05. | :21:13. | |
completing a 1000 mile journey. He has raised money for charity and | :21:13. | :21:19. | |
all of us asked, why? For some people, a 1000 mark job —— | :21:19. | :21:30. | |
job would be quite a challenge. But Tony has done the journey with a | :21:30. | :21:37. | |
fridge on his back. Then add the finishing line he adds a little | :21:37. | :21:41. | |
extra weight, his seven—year—old son. He didn't run to raise money | :21:41. | :21:47. | |
for so Bobby Robson's charity which raises money for research. Why a | :21:47. | :21:53. | |
fridge? She wouldn't let me have the cooker. I wanted to carry | :21:53. | :21:58. | |
something really heavy to demonstrate and signified the | :21:58. | :22:04. | |
burden of cancer. If you have ever had a family member who has had | :22:04. | :22:09. | |
cancer, you feel their burden. I wanted to take my burden along some | :22:09. | :22:15. | |
impossible journey just like the impossible journey of cancer. He | :22:15. | :22:20. | |
did much of his run with a hip injury after a fall. Despite | :22:20. | :22:24. | |
needing treatment on route, he kept to his gruelling Schedule of 26 | :22:24. | :22:30. | |
miles per day. Him and his rich have completed other major runs on | :22:31. | :22:37. | |
his back —— he and his fridge. His wife says he is unstoppable. It is | :22:38. | :22:44. | |
amazing he managed to carry it for quite so many miles. He has put | :22:44. | :22:50. | |
some miles in. When you put any pressure on him to give up? He has | :22:50. | :22:57. | |
talked about it and I have it on camera. But every now and then I | :22:57. | :23:02. | |
hear him talking about other little challenges. Today, he was handed a | :23:02. | :23:09. | |
cheque for £43,000 from the company who made the fridge. But he is now | :23:09. | :23:15. | |
off to the Great North Run where the funding —— fund—raising | :23:15. | :23:20. | |
continues. Which way his Newcastle? Quite a feat, isn't it? | :23:20. | :23:28. | |
You wouldn't manic two minutes with an oven on your back. —— you | :23:28. | :23:33. | |
wouldn't managed two minutes. And now for the weather. | :23:33. | :23:40. | |
Did he carry anything in the fridge? A glass of wine or so milk? | :23:40. | :23:43. | |
Some sausages. Good evening. We have some change | :23:43. | :23:56. | |
in the weather now. Summer has a very quickly drawn to a close. As | :23:56. | :24:01. | |
we head through the weekend, we will see a drop in the temperatures | :24:01. | :24:08. | |
as colder air floods in. It is mild at the moment although Misty in | :24:08. | :24:14. | |
some places. This great string of cloud in the Atlantic has a weather | :24:14. | :24:19. | |
system at wrapped around it that will be slow moving across us. It | :24:19. | :24:25. | |
will generate outbreaks of rain tonight. | :24:25. | :24:34. | |
Quite wet weather tomorrow, particularly in the evening. By | :24:34. | :24:41. | |
Saturday, it has gone through so hopefully it will a bright and dry | :24:41. | :24:47. | |
day. Short lived though because Sunday sees a change. You can see | :24:47. | :24:54. | |
how the clout has been fairly extensive over the south—west today. | :24:54. | :25:01. | |
The cloud has not stopped some of our heathers flowering. But the low | :25:01. | :25:06. | |
cloud has thickened and it started to produce fog. Our cameraman got | :25:06. | :25:14. | |
quite wet as the rain started to set in. The wind will become light | :25:14. | :25:21. | |
and variable overnight but we hold on to all the clout say it is misty | :25:21. | :25:27. | |
and damp and there will be drizzle in the wind. More persistent rain, | :25:27. | :25:30. | |
especially in the small hours of the morning. Quite a mild night. | :25:30. | :25:40. | |
Warm and humid start to the day tomorrow but also wet. The rain may | :25:40. | :25:47. | |
peter out for a time and we may get glimpses of sunshine in Dorset and | :25:47. | :25:50. | |
Somerset. By the end of the afternoon and in the early evening, | :25:50. | :25:58. | |
the brain begins. We could have a couple of hours of quite intense | :25:58. | :26:00. | |
rainfall. The wind will be north or north— | :26:00. | :26:16. | |
westerly. For the Isles of Scilly, quite a wet day. Write briefly in | :26:16. | :26:22. | |
the morning but some rain becoming quite heavy later. Misty in the low | :26:22. | :26:27. | |
cloud and the risk of coastal fog. Sunday is quite unsettled. A | :26:27. | :27:11. | |
notably windy day for all of us with gusts of wind to gale—force | :27:11. | :27:16. | |
along the coast of Cornwall and Devon. Certainly turning colder. | :27:16. | :27:25. | |
Monday, a drop in the temperature as cool air arrives. We should see | :27:25. | :27:30. | |
sunshine on Monday in between scattered showers. | :27:31. | :27:37. | |
Thank you very much. That it. I am back at 10:25pm tonight. From all | :27:37. | :27:43. | |
of us here, have a lovely evening. Thanks for watching. Bye—bye. | :27:43. | :27:44. |
