:00:00. > :00:07.pretty soggy. Thank you. That is all from the BBC. We can now

:00:08. > :00:58.EasyJet has withdrawn its application to operate flights to

:00:59. > :01:01.and from Guernsey. The commerce and employment Department confirmed the

:01:02. > :01:06.news. Since the company announced its interest, the states moved to

:01:07. > :01:11.block airlines the van Aurigny operating on the Gatwick route.

:01:12. > :01:15.The chance for more competition on a vital food for Guernsey, easyJet

:01:16. > :01:20.wanted to fly to Gatwick and help fill the Gallup when a Flybe Poulter

:01:21. > :01:26.next year. At the states had already agreed to back Aurigny to help fly

:01:27. > :01:31.enough passengers on the route. Yesterday, the department said it

:01:32. > :01:33.thought Aurigny should keep its monopoly. Tonight, easyJet has

:01:34. > :01:56.pulled out. The line says... It came just hours after business

:01:57. > :02:01.leaders voiced concerns tighter rules would make Guernsey looked

:02:02. > :02:08.like it was not open to new business. We queue is Aurigny, we

:02:09. > :02:14.acknowledge the crucial role that it plays in servicing our needs, and we

:02:15. > :02:20.impulse that, but we believe that no competition should be on a level

:02:21. > :02:23.playing field. Those that supported the application wanted to see more

:02:24. > :02:31.application and more consumer choice, but the chance of that

:02:32. > :02:34.happening has gone. Jersey's Solicitor general is trying

:02:35. > :02:38.to confiscate millions of pounds worth of assets from a convicted

:02:39. > :02:41.drug smuggler. Curtis Warren was jailed for trying to smuggle

:02:42. > :02:46.cannabis into Jersey. Now prosecutors who believe he is worth

:02:47. > :02:50.up to ?200 million want to seize some of money and property. His

:02:51. > :02:53.defence lawyer told the court that the case was not about taking his

:02:54. > :02:57.assets but making sure he spends longer in jail.

:02:58. > :03:02.Should it be compulsory that everyone coming to live in Jersey

:03:03. > :03:04.should speak English and understand local laws and traditions before

:03:05. > :03:12.they are grounded the right to stay? That was the question raised

:03:13. > :03:17.today. You might as well apply for the

:03:18. > :03:25.job. Why not? I have got nothing to lose. I have got nothing to lose!

:03:26. > :03:28.Perhaps not nothing, as she has given up her job as a lawyer and her

:03:29. > :03:33.life in Italy to move to Jersey to improve her career. That instead of

:03:34. > :03:37.applying to law firms, she spent the last three months here, at St

:03:38. > :03:44.Brelade's College, learning English at her own expense. It is an

:03:45. > :03:54.investment. To have the potential to work in a language that is not

:03:55. > :04:00.mine. Yes, definitely, I am in the right way. I have to be patient it

:04:01. > :04:06.is not easy, but yes, I am positive, really positive. A positive move for

:04:07. > :04:11.her, but not everybody chooses to study English. One politician says

:04:12. > :04:16.immigrants should be able to speak English and understand Jersey's

:04:17. > :04:21.laws. There is an educational element, but they have to pay to go

:04:22. > :04:31.to evening classes to learn English or French, because we have got

:04:32. > :04:35.jawline which, so they would have to make short they were qualified. The

:04:36. > :04:40.Assistant chief minister agreed education was key to learning

:04:41. > :04:45.English should not be compulsory. If anybody is going to make a

:04:46. > :04:48.commitment and be part of our social environment and economic

:04:49. > :04:55.environment, working in our community, they will find the need

:04:56. > :04:59.to learn our language, and I would expect them to face that up. That is

:05:00. > :05:04.what these students have done. There are some who do not have the desire

:05:05. > :05:12.or the money to take the same path to improve their English.

:05:13. > :05:16.That's in Jersey say they are worried about rabid animals coming

:05:17. > :05:19.to the island. Commenting rules have been relaxed, leading to fears that

:05:20. > :05:23.firms moving cats and dogs commercially could dodge blood tests

:05:24. > :05:28.by exploiting rules designed for individuals.

:05:29. > :05:35.Gill Mercury helps prepare a patient for a trip abroad. It is a high risk

:05:36. > :05:38.country for rabies. If they are planning to go somewhere where there

:05:39. > :05:45.is a risk of rabies, they will need one of these. Rabies is lethal,

:05:46. > :05:51.every year it kills over 55,000 people around the world and 15

:05:52. > :05:57.million are affected. You can get a slow paralysis, it starts from the

:05:58. > :06:01.bite and works to affect the whole body, until you are completely

:06:02. > :06:07.paralysed, and you collapse into a coma and died. Most people catch it

:06:08. > :06:11.from dogs and cats. Vets are concerned that the relaxing of

:06:12. > :06:17.quarantine rules could put the island at risk as people trading in

:06:18. > :06:23.pets exploit will still signed for owners. The travel scheme, designed

:06:24. > :06:31.for people moving around with their pets, subject to controls, because

:06:32. > :06:38.of the changes that `` there are no people moving animals around

:06:39. > :06:40.commercially. Parker came to Jersey from Romania and his owner had to

:06:41. > :06:41.jump from Romania and his owner had

:06:42. > :06:51.through lots of hoops to get him here. They have to have the rabies

:06:52. > :06:54.jabs and wait 21 days to do that. They have to go through a medical

:06:55. > :06:58.control before they can come through. When they get to Jersey,

:06:59. > :07:04.they go through a medical control again. That may sound like a

:07:05. > :07:07.thorough system. But dogs being moved commercially require even more

:07:08. > :07:13.stringent checks, including blood tests. That's all imploring

:07:14. > :07:19.highlanders `` islanders to check with their vet first if they buy a

:07:20. > :07:28.dog from another country. They are sticking with an animal

:07:29. > :07:32.theme later, on Spotlight. People find out why these villagers

:07:33. > :07:39.are competing to sound most like a stack in mating season.

:07:40. > :07:44.The staging. It has been derelict for two years

:07:45. > :07:48.and some say it is an eyesore. It is surprising that Guernsey's only

:07:49. > :07:51.tower block has become the focus of an art exhibition. An artist has

:07:52. > :07:59.taken some of the last photographs inside before it is renovated.

:08:00. > :08:01.Guernsey's landscapes have long captured the fascination of artists.

:08:02. > :08:07.That includes this local photographer. But now, he has taken

:08:08. > :08:12.inspiration from what some believe to be a blot on the landscape. A

:08:13. > :08:17.tower block such as this has been full of residence for so long, and a

:08:18. > :08:24.building without residence is a peculiar concept, an empty shell.

:08:25. > :08:28.Because of that, I was curious to see what signs had been left by the

:08:29. > :08:34.residents, there will still be odd piece of furniture, stickers on the

:08:35. > :08:39.ball, and by adding my photography, I could in Bella Stadt theme. I

:08:40. > :08:45.could make the rooms feel like there was a real presence still in each

:08:46. > :08:50.unit. These are the results. After ten nights working in the pitch

:08:51. > :08:53.black. This technique of light photography has taken him years to

:08:54. > :08:58.perfect. Many people have seen photographs from a busy road or a

:08:59. > :09:03.motorway with the car light trails, and you cannot see the cars. The

:09:04. > :09:08.concept is the same, ie and the car moving the lights around. I saw

:09:09. > :09:16.something that is not going anywhere, the tower block itself.

:09:17. > :09:23.But some will see it in a different light.

:09:24. > :09:30.A much quieter day to enjoy tomorrow, with some sunshine. Apart

:09:31. > :09:35.from a Q morning showers, most of the day is dry. There is somewhat

:09:36. > :09:42.weather overnight, and some of it could turn heavy. The wind does

:09:43. > :09:47.ease. He Hugh Bayley Chavez, then sunny spells, but much lighter winds

:09:48. > :09:53.than we have seen recently. The wind could be quite strong. There is a

:09:54. > :09:56.line of showers coming in off the Atlantic later that could give some

:09:57. > :10:07.torrential downpours, even the risk of thunder, and strong gust of wind.

:10:08. > :10:11.It is this clutch of showers that we are keeping a close eye on. The low

:10:12. > :10:17.pressure does not change much, but these were the systems will move out

:10:18. > :10:22.of the way overnight, and it is a more straightforward picture

:10:23. > :10:28.tomorrow. This system will approach bus on Thursday, but late in the

:10:29. > :10:34.day. Here comes those showers. As well as the strong gusts of wind.

:10:35. > :10:44.Eventually, the showers died down towards dawn. For tomorrow, briefly

:10:45. > :10:51.in the morning, a few showers. The priest will move west. It will drop

:10:52. > :10:54.and we will see some sunshine. It is mainly dry until the end of the day,

:10:55. > :11:10.when a few more showers will turn up.

:11:11. > :11:20.It is a bit choppy for the surfers. The outlook for Thursday is largely

:11:21. > :11:21.dry until late in the day. Heavy rain overnight, replaced by showers

:11:22. > :11:30.on Saturday. Chefs from the best restaurants and

:11:31. > :11:34.hotels in Guernsey have been taking on Jersey on their own turf. They

:11:35. > :11:38.have been cooking at Highlands College a four course dinner for top

:11:39. > :11:43.London chefs, judging in the Culinery Muratti. Jersey cooked

:11:44. > :11:48.yesterday, the winner will be declared tonight.

:11:49. > :11:54.Quietly confident. When we do win, if we win, I will be loudly

:11:55. > :11:59.confident! It would be nice to win again. If we lose, I might have to

:12:00. > :12:04.do it again next year! I shall let you know whether

:12:05. > :12:13.Guernsey or Jersey is victorious in that Culinery Muratti at 10:25pm. I

:12:14. > :12:17.am back then after a short update at 8pm. Have a good evening.

:12:18. > :12:20.After months of suffering major losses, pig producers in the South

:12:21. > :12:24.West are finally being paid more than the cost of production. Factors

:12:25. > :12:28.such as high feed costs have seen many farmers go out of business. The

:12:29. > :12:31.South West is the third largest English region in terms of pig

:12:32. > :12:39.production. Anna Varle has been finding out more. Jeremy has been

:12:40. > :12:43.farming pigs for nearly 30 years, but in recent times he's barely made

:12:44. > :12:46.a profit. But the future is now starting to look brighter. I am

:12:47. > :12:51.feeling more positive, I think with pig prices a bit more static, but

:12:52. > :12:55.there is a long way to go. We still need a margin in that pig price. We

:12:56. > :12:58.need to be investing, we need to be moving forward. After years of

:12:59. > :13:01.losing money, many farmers are starting to get paid the price it

:13:02. > :13:06.takes to produce pork, but it's come at a cost. The pig industry lost 7%

:13:07. > :13:10.of its national herd in the last six months of 2012 alone, due to so many

:13:11. > :13:16.farmers going out of business and it's cost the UK millions of pounds.

:13:17. > :13:19.Pig producers have been been losing money since 2010, so they need a

:13:20. > :13:23.sustained period of profitability to be able to recoup their losses and

:13:24. > :13:26.then be able to reinvest in their businesses for the future. So for

:13:27. > :13:34.the moment it is positive, but we need retailers to maintain their

:13:35. > :13:38.support for pig producers. But this news is of little comfort to those

:13:39. > :13:42.who have already called it a day. Lester farmed pigs for 21 years, but

:13:43. > :13:49.after such little return, he decided to sell this unit as a going concern

:13:50. > :13:53.last year. He's now focussing on his Christmas business. You're trying to

:13:54. > :13:56.keep people employed, we are trying to make a margin for ourselves so we

:13:57. > :14:00.have personal drawings from that business and for the last three

:14:01. > :14:03.years that was at a position of really just breaking even and

:14:04. > :14:06.perhaps a little bit better. And that's not really good enough,

:14:07. > :14:09.because you want the investment. You want sufficient margin to enable you

:14:10. > :14:12.to reinvest in the business and so it was a reluctant decision, because

:14:13. > :14:25.I enjoyed outdoor pig farming and it's quite a wrench to change

:14:26. > :14:29.direction. But for now it is good news for those like Jeremy who have

:14:30. > :14:40.decided to stay in, but the question is how sustainable are these prices

:14:41. > :14:44.in the long`term. He rode his first winner at Exeter racecourse 19 years

:14:45. > :14:47.ago. Today, Britain's top jockey was back where he started his rise to

:14:48. > :14:50.fame and fortune. AP McCoy is a household name and Exeter have

:14:51. > :15:03.honoured the Irishman by naming a bar after him. Dave Gibbins has the

:15:04. > :15:07.story. He's 22 winners from the 4,000 milestone and he has been

:15:08. > :15:14.champion jockey on 18 occasions and won the Grand National three years

:15:15. > :15:18.ago. Tony McCoy, or if you prefer, AP is the attraction for race goers

:15:19. > :15:22.up and down the country and he was back at the track where it started

:15:23. > :15:31.for him to open a bar in his name and remember the first success in

:15:32. > :15:40.Exeter in 1994. The trainer, Edward, still lives in the area. I didn't

:15:41. > :15:44.know him until until I rode the horse. He doesn't train that many

:15:45. > :15:49.horses, but the ones he did train he was successful with. I will be

:15:50. > :15:54.forever grateful to him for giving me that ride. He has riden a few

:15:55. > :16:02.more winners for me since that and also we have had a few skirmishes

:16:03. > :16:07.with the Stewarts at Taunton one `` stewards at Taunton one day between

:16:08. > :16:19.us. He always remembers, yeah, I like to think that I'm just a very

:16:20. > :16:25.small part in his career. Despite the fact that Tony McCoy fell in his

:16:26. > :16:30.first race today, wouldn't it be fitting if he does record his

:16:31. > :16:40.4,000th winner at the course where he made his name? At least he was

:16:41. > :16:43.able to walk away. Yes, it is good to see. Now, the village of

:16:44. > :16:47.Dulverton on the edge of Exmoor was home to a world championship at the

:16:48. > :16:51.weekend. Bolving is the art of imitating a stag during the mating

:16:52. > :17:01.season. This is what it should sound like: URGH! Excuse me. My stomach

:17:02. > :17:07.usually does make that kind of noise at this time of the evening! The

:17:08. > :17:10.idea is to trick a stag into answering your call ` and this year,

:17:11. > :17:19.almost 50 competitors took part. Andrew Plant was there. Right good

:17:20. > :17:22.evening and welcome to the tenth annual World Bolving Competition

:17:23. > :17:26.here on Exmoor. You're going to be judged on how well you imitate a

:17:27. > :17:29.stag. The start of this annual competition and a demonstration in

:17:30. > :17:40.the art of exactly how bolving should be done. Urgh! Urgh! Urgh!

:17:41. > :17:44.Somewhere between Tarzan of the Apes and a roar of pain ` an impassion of

:17:45. > :17:53.Exmoor stags, in this their mating season. `` imitation. Competitors

:17:54. > :17:56.need a call loud enough to carry across the rolling countryside and

:17:57. > :18:00.perhaps persuade a real stag to answer back. It's the October rut,

:18:01. > :18:03.so it's the mating season for the red deer stags and, yeah, this call

:18:04. > :18:07.that they do, the bolve, it sends out a challenge, "I have got some

:18:08. > :18:14.hinds here, I'm a big, ruthless stag, high on testosterone."

:18:15. > :18:17.Word`of`mouth has made the bizarre world of bolving increasingly

:18:18. > :18:26.popular and crowds now come from miles around to test their tonsils

:18:27. > :18:31.and pick up some tips. Right. OH! OH! OH! OH! OH! Jane Colman from

:18:32. > :18:38.Ilfracombe training hard for her first bolving Championship. And so

:18:39. > :18:49.as darkness begins to fall, the bolving finally begins. Quiet,

:18:50. > :18:54.quiet, quiet. URGH! Between calls, everyone listens for the sound of a

:18:55. > :19:07.response from the countryside below. OH! OH! OH! OH! Bolving clearly open

:19:08. > :19:19.to interpretation. WOAH! WOAH! With some surprising variation in each

:19:20. > :19:28.attempt. WURGH! It is the most resounding that's seen to be most

:19:29. > :19:33.successful. URGH! URGH! URGH! Each attempt is marked by torch light by

:19:34. > :19:38.a panel of judges. Jane didn't take the title this time around, but says

:19:39. > :19:52.she'll be back to do it all again this time next year. Urgh! URGH!

:19:53. > :19:58.URGH! URGH! Natalie makes a similar noise when she wants a cup of tea in

:19:59. > :20:08.the afternoon. I am sure I have heard the that. They sound like him

:20:09. > :20:10.from Star Wars. A unique collection of pictures taken by four

:20:11. > :20:14.generations of photographers from the same family is to be sold at

:20:15. > :20:18.auction. More than 200 photos of shipwrecks taken by the Gibsons of

:20:19. > :20:21.the Isles of Scilly will go under the hammer next month. Spotlight's

:20:22. > :20:26.David George has been looking at the collection. Now The raging sea in

:20:27. > :20:33.the South West has caused the enof many a fine ship. More than 200 have

:20:34. > :20:41.been photographed in their dying throes by generations of Gibsons.

:20:42. > :20:45.The business began in 1869. Many were taken in difficult conditions,

:20:46. > :20:49.with the photographers carrying heavy equipment over the rocks to

:20:50. > :20:56.capture the dramatic shots. The collection was started by John

:20:57. > :21:00.Gibson, the family say he obtained his first camera at sea. Each

:21:01. > :21:08.generation carried on the work and continued to photograph wrecks in

:21:09. > :21:14.the area. San ra Gibson ` Sandra Gibson still runs the business. We

:21:15. > :21:18.have always photographed a huge diversion `` diverse range of things

:21:19. > :21:21.that have been happening in the area. Ship wrecks were just a part

:21:22. > :21:27.of that, but in that day and age there were a huge amount of ship

:21:28. > :21:30.wreck and disasters in the area. So you they took those pictures

:21:31. > :21:34.alongside everything else and over the years as the collection has

:21:35. > :21:38.built, we have made a particular effort to continue with the ship

:21:39. > :21:44.wreck archive. In many cases these pictures were made using glass

:21:45. > :21:53.negatives, which allow us to see detail, even by modern standards. My

:21:54. > :21:57.favourite is a picture of the wreck of the Enterprise, after the drama

:21:58. > :22:02.was over and they took a picture of the rigging and the broken masts and

:22:03. > :22:08.broken wood. For that day and age, it was what you would call a very

:22:09. > :22:15.arty picture. The last really big wreck on the area was in 1997 and

:22:16. > :22:19.Frank Gibson was there. He was supposed to be retired. I was

:22:20. > :22:24.running the business, but he ran faster than I ever could go and get

:22:25. > :22:28.pictures of that wreck. We took pictures of it together and it

:22:29. > :22:33.seemed, as it was the last big wreck in the area, it seemed the right

:22:34. > :22:43.place to close the ship wreck archive really. The action of the

:22:44. > :22:48.archive is expected to make around ?150,000. Some fantastic

:22:49. > :22:53.photographs. And some were taken right at the start of photography.

:22:54. > :22:57.Gibsons, a family name and very famous. Sorry about some of the

:22:58. > :23:01.sound in that. Now time for the weather and hopefully we are hearing

:23:02. > :23:06.David loud and clear. And we have some lighting tonight. Sound and

:23:07. > :23:12.lighting, it is a miracle. This television business will catch on!

:23:13. > :23:16.We have some reasonable weather tomorrow. Probably the best day of

:23:17. > :23:19.the week. A lot of dry weather and some sunshine. The problem is the

:23:20. > :23:24.wet weather we will see tonight. Not op some wet weather, but some gusty

:23:25. > :23:30.winds. That is a summary for tomorrow, much quieter and lighter

:23:31. > :23:34.winds and some respite from the wet weather with some sunshine in the

:23:35. > :23:36.afternoon. How far, we have got tonight to get away with first.

:23:37. > :23:42.Tonight we will have some strong winds and also some heavy rain in

:23:43. > :23:46.the form of thundery showers. Those showers will be around later on

:23:47. > :23:50.tonight. There is some now particularly across parts of Dorset

:23:51. > :23:59.and Somerset. You can see some over Dartmoor as well. But to the west we

:24:00. > :24:05.will see some heavy and thundery down pours. Is in these showers we

:24:06. > :24:08.could have gusts of wind 50 to 60mph. The brighter colours showing

:24:09. > :24:15.where the heavy showers will develop. By the small hours they are

:24:16. > :24:20.beginning to move away. But they are still around by the morning and
