arrives on Friday. Can't wait! That's all | :00:00. | :00:08. | |
Aurigny's taken the top spot in a survey of the world's best | :00:09. | :05:09. | |
short`haul airlines. Readers of the consumer magazine Which? Ranked | :05:10. | :05:14. | |
Aurigny higher than other major carriers such as British Airways, | :05:15. | :05:17. | |
EasyJet, and Ryanair. Factors considered in the poll included | :05:18. | :05:19. | |
value for money, baggage allowance and leg room. A Jersey`based travel | :05:20. | :05:23. | |
operator has helped uncover an internet scam targeting the ski | :05:24. | :05:26. | |
holiday market. Con artists are trying to steal thousands of pounds | :05:27. | :05:30. | |
from holiday`makers by posing as the owners of luxury chalets. A Jersey | :05:31. | :05:34. | |
company is one of those being targeted and it's owner is trying to | :05:35. | :05:37. | |
stop the scam. Pam Caulfield reports. It is the beginning of the | :05:38. | :05:46. | |
ski season and while some holiday`makers are hitting the | :05:47. | :05:49. | |
school 's `` slopes, others have been left high and dry. Con artist | :05:50. | :05:56. | |
target genuine travel websites like this one. We find this alternate | :05:57. | :06:07. | |
site three weeks ago, you can see the photographs all taken from my | :06:08. | :06:14. | |
site. The boys as chalet owners, advertise on other sites with the | :06:15. | :06:19. | |
one contact details and take money off of holiday`makers. I would take | :06:20. | :06:27. | |
to think our chalets are being used in this week to corn people out of | :06:28. | :06:31. | |
money. We are doing our best, highlighting, contacting the agents | :06:32. | :06:36. | |
and operators to make sure they are doing the bit to keep an eye on this | :06:37. | :06:43. | |
as well. It is within hard to stop. This woman and her friends paid | :06:44. | :06:51. | |
13,000 homes to a conman. We cannot believe we were so gullible, we are | :06:52. | :06:55. | |
all professionals, we live in London and use the intranet daily. We felt | :06:56. | :07:01. | |
stupid to fall prey and that aims to a plan like this. Victims might not | :07:02. | :07:08. | |
only lose the money but they might not know they have been scammed | :07:09. | :07:15. | |
until they arrive at the resort. We do not want people who have spent | :07:16. | :07:22. | |
money out one of these fraudulent listings and to turn up with another | :07:23. | :07:29. | |
family and fourth or to go into the same property. That is what we want | :07:30. | :07:36. | |
to avoid. If it looks too good to be true, it probably is. Coming up | :07:37. | :07:45. | |
later: Christmas countdown, the Street transformed into a giant | :07:46. | :07:54. | |
advent calendar. No, ahead of Christmas this week we are featuring | :07:55. | :08:00. | |
festive songs and carols. Tonight David a signing choir in Jersey. | :08:01. | :09:25. | |
That was beautiful and we will be hearing from another festive choir | :09:26. | :09:30. | |
tomorrow. And staying with the festive theme, hundreds of people in | :09:31. | :09:33. | |
Guernsey were getting into the spirit yesterday. They were taking | :09:34. | :09:36. | |
part in the annual Santa Fun Run. They were running for the charity | :09:37. | :09:39. | |
Aid Reaching Children, which helps children all around the world. It is | :09:40. | :09:45. | |
beginning to look a lot like Christmas at the weather is not | :09:46. | :09:53. | |
being ball. How is it working? It is looking more like a wet Christmas | :09:54. | :09:55. | |
than a white Christmas at the moment. We have been this evening. | :09:56. | :10:01. | |
It will be wet through much of the data model and windy at times. It | :10:02. | :10:12. | |
does remain relatively mild for the next few days. This suite of cloud | :10:13. | :10:22. | |
will push up from the South West. We have some weather fronts which will | :10:23. | :10:24. | |
bring rain and keep clean throughout the night and tomorrow. The weather | :10:25. | :10:31. | |
front will clear towards the end of the day tomorrow. The next weather | :10:32. | :10:35. | |
system will be shown from the West on Wednesday bringing more rain. The | :10:36. | :10:40. | |
isobars close together so gale force winds are possible. That is towards | :10:41. | :10:46. | |
the end of the week. Some heavy bursts of rain through the night. | :10:47. | :10:52. | |
Heavy winds coming from the east and north`east. Temperature is now lower | :10:53. | :10:57. | |
than seven degrees. A wet start to tomorrow, water on the Lord's first | :10:58. | :11:04. | |
ring tomorrow. The rain should start to ease as we go through the data | :11:05. | :11:10. | |
model. The wind will ease by the end of the model. Temperatures tomorrow | :11:11. | :11:18. | |
afternoon reaching up to 10 degrees. Out at sea tomorrow we have been or | :11:19. | :11:23. | |
drizzle at times. Modric, occasionally prove his ability. `` | :11:24. | :11:41. | |
moderate, occasionally poor visibility. | :11:42. | :11:51. | |
The rest of the week will still see some wet weather with us, rain | :11:52. | :11:59. | |
arriving on Wednesday, strong winds, still breezy on Thursday and Friday | :12:00. | :12:05. | |
but the wind will not be quite so strong and we will see some drier | :12:06. | :12:10. | |
and brighter weather as well. Find out if that wet and windy weather | :12:11. | :12:15. | |
will affect any of your travel plans by tuning into our radio stations. | :12:16. | :12:19. | |
From us for now, good buy. help they can get. With big projects | :12:20. | :12:23. | |
like the Atlantic Array of the table, small`scale projects could be | :12:24. | :12:30. | |
the future. Now you'll remember during the Olympics there was a lot | :12:31. | :12:34. | |
of talk about the legacy the games would leave. Well, one thing to have | :12:35. | :12:38. | |
come out of London 2012 is the sport of handball. Yes, it's one of the | :12:39. | :12:42. | |
most popular sports in Europe and it could be taking off in Devon. Now, | :12:43. | :12:46. | |
the hunt's on to find enough under`16s to form the county's very | :12:47. | :12:49. | |
first handball team. Our North Devon reporter Andrea Ormsby has the | :12:50. | :12:58. | |
story. He grew up playing handball in France. His coaching skills are | :12:59. | :13:03. | |
much needed because here, handball is something you get a penalty for | :13:04. | :13:09. | |
in football. It is inclusive, it is a team sport, it is everything I | :13:10. | :13:19. | |
like in a sport. It is great. At the moment we are attacking this way. | :13:20. | :13:24. | |
The blues have the ball. Very quickly, they are moving back down | :13:25. | :13:31. | |
the pitch. We want to get handball to be a commonly played sport. At | :13:32. | :13:35. | |
the moment, we are trying to get people to find out about it and try | :13:36. | :13:40. | |
it and then we will hopefully set up competitions. It might be little | :13:41. | :13:44. | |
known, but handball is massive in Europe, with 19 million players and | :13:45. | :13:50. | |
more than 150,000 teams. It is the second most played team sport for | :13:51. | :13:54. | |
men and the second for women and these children love it. It is fun. | :13:55. | :13:59. | |
You can pass it around, you can shoot, it makes you feel nice. You | :14:00. | :14:06. | |
can get to score. I enjoy doing sport, but this is really good, you | :14:07. | :14:13. | |
get to be a team player and you get to have fun passing and trying to | :14:14. | :14:20. | |
score goals. So far there is only one handball club in the South West | :14:21. | :14:25. | |
and an organisation set up last year is trying to change that. The goal | :14:26. | :14:30. | |
is to have Devon's very first under 16 's team ready to compete in the | :14:31. | :14:33. | |
national schools Championships next year. Onto the rest of the sport and | :14:34. | :14:43. | |
Ruta Meilutyte has continued her golden form in the pool, hasn't she, | :14:44. | :14:51. | |
Dave? Exeter Chiefs are virtually out of rugby's European Cup after | :14:52. | :14:54. | |
going down 32`20 at holders Toulon. They were outscored by four tries to | :14:55. | :14:58. | |
two, although they led 7`5 with Don Armand's excellent score in the | :14:59. | :15:00. | |
first half, the South African's first for the Chiefs. But the French | :15:01. | :15:04. | |
side went on to strengthen their grip at the top of Pool Two with | :15:05. | :15:08. | |
Jonny Wilkinson dashing in to complete Toulon's scoring. Only | :15:09. | :15:16. | |
Plymouth Argyle suffered defeat out of the South West Football League | :15:17. | :15:19. | |
teams this weekend. John Sheridan's return to his former club | :15:20. | :15:21. | |
Chesterfield ended in a 2`0 loss. But the rest came out unbeaten. | :15:22. | :15:25. | |
Here's how the managers and fans reacted. It was a tired affair, both | :15:26. | :15:34. | |
teams tried to the game. They knew a win would have been the better | :15:35. | :15:40. | |
results. We are disappointed. We felt we had some good situations. | :15:41. | :15:44. | |
Our goalkeeper made a couple of good saves. Keeper did not have make | :15:45. | :15:54. | |
saves. `` their keeper. What a terrific goal! He is going forward | :15:55. | :16:04. | |
again. A chance here. It is our second goal for Exeter city! Then a | :16:05. | :16:17. | |
sharps! At a horrific goal! `` a brilliant goal. The goals we give | :16:18. | :16:23. | |
away were a joke. It give us a mountain to climb. I thought we | :16:24. | :16:28. | |
dominated the first half. It is about scoring goals. We had a | :16:29. | :16:36. | |
penalty, if he had scored, the game would have been different. Everyone | :16:37. | :16:43. | |
says how good the team is. We have not put points on the table. That | :16:44. | :16:51. | |
was the aim. Today, I thought we were excellent against one of the | :16:52. | :17:01. | |
best teams in the league. Plymouth College swimmer Ruta Meilutyte has | :17:02. | :17:04. | |
added two more gold medals to take her haul this year to 14. The | :17:05. | :17:07. | |
16`year`old Olympic and World champion set a new European | :17:08. | :17:09. | |
short`course Championship record, pipping her great rival Yuliya | :17:10. | :17:12. | |
Efimova of Russia. Ruta won a total of three medals in Denmark, | :17:13. | :17:16. | |
including two golds and a silver, to end a phenomenal year for the | :17:17. | :17:18. | |
Lithuanian who lives, trains and studies in Plymouth. Finally, kite | :17:19. | :17:25. | |
racing's European Champion, Olly Bridge from Exmouth, came second at | :17:26. | :17:28. | |
the inaugural Oceanic Championships at Fremantle in Australia. He was | :17:29. | :17:31. | |
runner`up to the World champion, Florian Gruber of Germany. | :17:32. | :17:33. | |
16`year`old Bridge pressurised Gruber all week, winning two races | :17:34. | :17:37. | |
in the regatta and more than ?2,000 in prize money. That looks | :17:38. | :18:00. | |
tremendous! A group of volunteers is planning to restart a centuries old | :18:01. | :18:02. | |
industry along the Somerset coastline ` oyster farming. The | :18:03. | :18:06. | |
group in the village of Porlock, near Minehead have already received | :18:07. | :18:09. | |
grants of ?17,000 for a pilot project using oysters from Falmouth. | :18:10. | :18:11. | |
Our Somerset Correspondent Clinton Rogers has the story. In this area | :18:12. | :18:24. | |
is where the old fish traps and tidal ponds used to be. Out there | :18:25. | :18:28. | |
somewhere beneath the sea there are apparently still the remnants of the | :18:29. | :18:36. | |
oyster farms of Porlock Wear. In the day, they produced a delicacy | :18:37. | :18:41. | |
renowned across the country. The best tasting oysters anywhere, or so | :18:42. | :18:47. | |
they claimed. The oyster industry here disappeared about 80 years ago. | :18:48. | :18:52. | |
In a few years time we will have an industry here. Now a voluntary | :18:53. | :18:58. | |
organisation dedicated to encouraging economic growth, wants | :18:59. | :19:02. | |
to restart the industry. To create new jobs in an area where such | :19:03. | :19:07. | |
things are almost as rare as oysters. We are one of the oldest | :19:08. | :19:13. | |
communities in the country `` country. It is difficult for young | :19:14. | :19:17. | |
people with families to find good employment so that they can stay | :19:18. | :19:22. | |
here. Is this the answer? We think it is. ?17,000 has been given to | :19:23. | :19:36. | |
fund a pilot project. Initially, young oysters will be brought in | :19:37. | :19:41. | |
from other fisheries, like here in Falmouth, and then they will be | :19:42. | :19:45. | |
cultivated in Porlock. It will be an important test to see if the waters | :19:46. | :19:51. | |
here can still sustain oysters. Eventually, if everything works out | :19:52. | :19:57. | |
fine, we will have hundreds of oysters. It will be quite good in | :19:58. | :20:05. | |
the local pubs. The trial will last one year at if it is successful, | :20:06. | :20:10. | |
then this bay will once again see commercial oyster production, but | :20:11. | :20:15. | |
what makes this project unique is that if and when it makes money, | :20:16. | :20:20. | |
that money will be reinvested into another community project. Always | :20:21. | :20:30. | |
with the aim of growing new jobs. Now do you have an advent calendar? | :20:31. | :20:34. | |
Well, what if your whole street became an advent calendar? That's | :20:35. | :20:36. | |
what they've done in Ashburton in South Devon. Neighbours in St | :20:37. | :20:39. | |
Lawrence Lane have dressed up their windows to help with the countdown | :20:40. | :20:42. | |
to Christmas. Johnny Rutherford has been to have a look. Just off one of | :20:43. | :20:53. | |
the main streets and Ashburton is St Lawrence Lane. In May look like an | :20:54. | :20:58. | |
average street, but something the residents are doing is causing | :20:59. | :21:07. | |
excitement `` it may look like. The whole street has been transformed | :21:08. | :21:11. | |
into what local residents are calling a living calendar. I sent | :21:12. | :21:17. | |
about 35 letters and about 28 people replied wanting to be apart of it. I | :21:18. | :21:24. | |
had to turn a few people down. It has been amazing, really lovely. | :21:25. | :21:33. | |
Each day is a surprise. I am number 18 and the box has come down from | :21:34. | :21:38. | |
the attic and I think flashing lights are essential. We are | :21:39. | :21:43. | |
nervous. It has become competitive. It is lovely. We had a little boy | :21:44. | :21:50. | |
coming home from school and he was very excited because he had found 11 | :21:51. | :21:55. | |
and you could hear him jumping up and down with excitement. It made it | :21:56. | :22:04. | |
all worthwhile for us. I want to see the next one. I want to see the man | :22:05. | :22:13. | |
leading the elephants. I like how they used everything they can think | :22:14. | :22:18. | |
of. I like the nativity scenes. Which house will display tomorrow's | :22:19. | :22:25. | |
window? That secret stays with the cat. | :22:26. | :22:42. | |
More of a wet Christmas rather than a white Christmas. Some rain with us | :22:43. | :22:51. | |
for tonight, the week ahead is looking rather unsettled. Some | :22:52. | :22:55. | |
strong winds at times, especially for the middle part of the week. For | :22:56. | :23:02. | |
today, we had cloud coming up from the south, it has kept things mild, | :23:03. | :23:07. | |
but we have some weather fronts bringing rain for tonight. Some | :23:08. | :23:15. | |
heavy downpours for a time. Tomorrow could be the best day of the week in | :23:16. | :23:20. | |
terms of a dry and bright day. By the time we get to wear them stay, | :23:21. | :23:24. | |
and other system moves in, some gales are possible. Today we had | :23:25. | :23:33. | |
some rain, some heavy downpours, and some fairly cloudy conditions. If | :23:34. | :23:42. | |
you're on the roads tonight, there is a lot of water. Tomorrow, that | :23:43. | :23:47. | |
rain will start to clear away and with light winds and clearer skies, | :23:48. | :23:54. | |
some mist and fog is likely, and temperatures will drop down to three | :23:55. | :23:59. | |
or four degrees. Parts of the countryside could be lower than | :24:00. | :24:07. | |
that. You might find some mist and fog tomorrow, the sun should clear | :24:08. | :24:12. | |
that away, a few showers close to the south coast, but otherwise you | :24:13. | :24:18. | |
are looking at a dry day with some lighter winds temperatures reaching | :24:19. | :24:23. | |
up to around eight or nine degrees. For the Isles of Scilly, a fairly | :24:24. | :24:30. | |
dry and bright day, moderate winds. Times of high water... For the | :24:31. | :24:43. | |
surfers, some decent waves for the North Coast. Generally clean waves. | :24:44. | :24:52. | |
Choppy on the south coast. The coastal waters forecast... The week | :24:53. | :25:06. | |
ahead continues and settles, so make the most of the dry and bright | :25:07. | :25:10. | |
weather tomorrow. On weapon state there will be heavy rain arriving | :25:11. | :25:18. | |
from the West `` Wednesday. Thursday and Friday is still quite breezy, | :25:19. | :25:23. | |
but a bit cooler. A few showers could turn wintry, but on Friday it | :25:24. | :25:27. | |
looks like we will return to more wet and windy weather. | :25:28. | :25:31. | |
Now, before we go this evening, as is our tradition in the run up to | :25:32. | :25:37. | |
Christmas, we have the first of our Christmas Carols. This year we | :25:38. | :25:40. | |
recorded singers and choirs from our four counties in the Mary Harris | :25:41. | :25:43. | |
Chapel at the University of Exeter. Tonight we leave you with the Sterts | :25:44. | :25:45. | |
Singers from Cornwall. Goodnight. | :25:46. | :25:57. |
