:07:01. > :07:04.transformed part of Jersey's Steam Museum for a unique perform`nce of
:07:05. > :07:06.Edit Nesbit's The Railway Children. As part of it,
:07:07. > :07:10.a specially constructed set has been built over the railway line
:07:11. > :07:13.at the museum in Trinity, and it features a real steal train
:07:14. > :07:17.that must stop just yards from one of the main characters
:07:18. > :07:33.Jen Smith takes up the storx. It said all the world is a stage.
:07:34. > :07:36.So, why not a train museum? After eight weeks of preparation, the
:07:37. > :07:41.school is taking its production onto the tracks. There are so many issues
:07:42. > :07:45.involved in putting on a production like this with children, not least
:07:46. > :07:48.health and safety, and we h`ve found a way around pretty much evdry
:07:49. > :07:53.problem, and it has taken a lot of teamwork and thought, and lots of
:07:54. > :07:56.work. This is one of the biggest plays the school has ever ptt on,
:07:57. > :08:04.and the first time they havd ever used a live steam train. And, true
:08:05. > :08:12.to the original Edwardian novel at the end of the first half, the
:08:13. > :08:17.children stop the train. I have two stands a metre from the trahn at one
:08:18. > :08:21.point, so it is quite scary. The train driver says he can stop the
:08:22. > :08:27.train, so we have two count on his word. It is one of the biggdst thing
:08:28. > :08:32.is one of the biggest things the school has done. There were two
:08:33. > :08:38.dress rehearsals before this week's performances. But, doing a play on a
:08:39. > :08:42.real railway line has its problems. They have got a beautiful station in
:08:43. > :08:47.city, but nowhere to put thd audience. We have had to buhld the
:08:48. > :08:54.whole stage set, two platforms, a bridge, and measure it all to within
:08:55. > :08:58.a few centimetres so that it is safe for the truddon to get on and off.
:08:59. > :09:02.With its own train and home`made station, it is a school plax that
:09:03. > :09:07.has built up a lot of steam, and sets a real high for next ydar.
:09:08. > :09:20.Now the weather. We will probably see high
:09:21. > :09:24.temperatures over the next few days, and are in danger of having a summer
:09:25. > :09:30.this year. Things are looking quite promising. It is a little bht misty
:09:31. > :09:33.by the evening, and there could be some low cloud around first thing in
:09:34. > :09:44.the morning. Some quite humhd air across as overnight tonight. For the
:09:45. > :09:47.most part, the story is a fhne and dry one. I pressure is covering most
:09:48. > :09:52.of the United Kingdom and northern France. There are some showdrs
:09:53. > :09:59.around across Spain and Portugal. That area of high pressure loves
:10:00. > :10:02.around a little bit, but it's position is pretty much at
:10:03. > :10:06.stationary. A couple of weather systems around the edge of ht will
:10:07. > :10:10.introduce a bit more cloud, and those will continue to be a problem
:10:11. > :10:16.as we head into the weekend. But we will keep the warmth and
:10:17. > :10:20.temperatures of 23 degrees. On the other side of Europe there hs quite
:10:21. > :10:24.a big difference. It is still very warm, but some boundary showers
:10:25. > :10:32.across parts of Spain, the @lps and it is much cooler as we movd into
:10:33. > :10:40.Scandinavia. If you are heading to France, it will be a hot dax
:10:41. > :10:44.tomorrow. Not quite so warm for us. Overnight tonight, some low cloud.
:10:45. > :10:47.It will be thin so it should wake up greatly tomorrow. Overnight
:10:48. > :10:53.temperature is down to 12 ddgrees, 54 Fahrenheit. Tomorrow, sole brief
:10:54. > :10:58.low cloud, but it will soon break up. Strong sunshine in the
:10:59. > :11:04.afternoon. The only change could be that we see more of this mist
:11:05. > :11:07.around. It may just drift towards us into the early evening. Temperatures
:11:08. > :11:35.up to 21 degrees, with light winds. The sea temperature is warmhng up
:11:36. > :11:46.quite nicely with all this fine weather. If you are enjoying this
:11:47. > :11:51.fine weather, the downside hs the pollen count, which continuds to be
:11:52. > :11:52.very high. If you are out in the sunshine, the sun at this thme of
:11:53. > :12:07.year is at its strongest. The outlook is for dry, find weather
:12:08. > :12:13.to continue into the weekend. Damages in the sunshine getting up
:12:14. > :12:18.to 22 or 23, but 21 will be the top figure for most of us. Perh`ps a
:12:19. > :12:30.little cooler during the night time. David, thank you. Now over to Justin
:12:31. > :12:42.and the rest of the team. Do send in your photographs to David.
:12:43. > :12:45.and the RSPCA say they're concerned about the lack of knowledge some
:12:46. > :12:51.owners have about basic reqtirements involved in care for animals.

:13:34. > :13:36.It's now being recommended `s the best way to treat the condition in
:13:37. > :13:39.children by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence,
:13:40. > :13:45.When he was diagnosed with curvature of the spine, he had two options.
:13:46. > :13:48.The traditional way of treating the condition is to have complicated
:13:49. > :13:56.surgery every four to six months, to insert bigger rods as he grows.
:13:57. > :13:59.But he went for a radical procedure which involves putting magndtic
:14:00. > :14:05.versions into his spine, whhch can then be stretched automatic`lly with

:14:15. > :14:19.The feeling of it only lasts for a few minutes, or maybe an hotr, then
:14:20. > :14:24.There's a lot of different things you can do now.
:14:25. > :14:31.These are the special rods that Rhys now has in his back.
:14:32. > :14:33.They're adjusted a bit like an extending curtain pole every
:14:34. > :14:36.three months at the Royal Ddvon and Exeter Hospital.
:14:37. > :14:38.Rhys just has to go as an outpatient and lie down on
:14:39. > :14:45.the couch and the motors ard applied and it's all done in a few linutes.
:14:46. > :14:54.There seems to be no pain with the system.
:14:55. > :14:59.It's an enormous advantage from his point of view because it is scary
:15:00. > :15:05.going into hospital and a lot of children get terrified having repeat
:15:06. > :15:10.anaesthetics. It's estimated this system could save the NHS ?02,0 0
:15:11. > :15:15.for every patient. We almost forget that that he's a condition `t all. I
:15:16. > :15:18.forget to tell him to be careful. I don't know if it would make any
:15:19. > :15:23.difference if I did tell hil but we forget and he carries on as normal.

:15:59. > :16:01.Plunkett Foundation, which supports rural communities, will show there
:16:02. > :16:06.are 99 stores open for business ` up from 82 just a couple of ye`rs ago.
:16:07. > :16:13.As Simon Clemison reports from Thorncombe in Dorset,
:16:14. > :16:20.the idea is now attracting hnterest from some international vishtors.
:16:21. > :16:26.It's a long way to come for a pint of milk but this group of vhsitors
:16:27. > :16:30.from Germany wanted to find out more about the way in which a village
:16:31. > :16:35.from Dorset has managed to keep its local shop open. When the store s
:16:36. > :16:39.former owners retired, the community borrowed the money to buy it and
:16:40. > :16:47.volunteers came forward to lake up the workforce. But according to the
:16:48. > :16:50.international customer base, just acquired by Thorncombe, voltnteering
:16:51. > :16:55.is not as common in Germany. We have experienced here a lot of
:16:56. > :17:00.organisations who have volunteers working for them and I think the
:17:01. > :17:08.volunteers doing a shop likd this one make a village living. Living,
:17:09. > :17:12.they say, where lots of village shops back home are not. Thdre are
:17:13. > :17:20.no shops at all. They are all gone. All the little shops are all gone.
:17:21. > :17:27.So the South West of England may have the answer. The region has had
:17:28. > :17:32.one of the biggest concentr`tions of community owned shops for a while
:17:33. > :17:36.but Dorset alone now has eight. Supermarkets may have taken trade
:17:37. > :17:40.away but a sense that peopld have a stake in the business and cheaper
:17:41. > :17:45.running costs have made the village store viable again. Keeping it
:17:46. > :17:50.simple is a good thing. When we first started, we were trying to be
:17:51. > :17:54.all things to all people. Wd had far too much stock and the sort of
:17:55. > :17:58.things you might buy once every five years, then not again. So over time,
:17:59. > :18:02.with the support of the comlunity, we've got to the stage wherd we ve
:18:03. > :18:07.got a great selection of dahly and weekly products and some nice,
:18:08. > :18:11.special things as well. I whll tell them how they'll tear and work with
:18:12. > :18:16.the volunteers. I think it hs really good. Do you think it is a solution
:18:17. > :18:20.that could work in Germany? Why not? If there's a village which would
:18:21. > :18:24.like to survive, this would be a good idea to, I would say. `` to
:18:25. > :18:33.help, I would say. Now, budding young engineers
:18:34. > :18:35.and racing drivers from across the South West came together to compete
:18:36. > :18:38.at an event in Cornwall tod`y. Around 60 primary schools entered
:18:39. > :18:40.the electric car race at Spotlight's John
:18:41. > :18:43.Danks was trackside. This is a chance for schools to
:18:44. > :18:55.design and build their own There's a little electric motor with
:18:56. > :19:05.a drive belt and that just turns the wheels and then little bicycle
:19:06. > :19:08.brakes, which clamp on a disc, Each car had to negotiate
:19:09. > :19:17.a slalom course as quickly as possible ` sometimes with
:19:18. > :19:22.a bit of problem`solving thrown in. And there was
:19:23. > :19:25.a drag race to test the spedd of There are lots of children out there
:19:26. > :19:35.that don't enjoy sitting in a classroom and when you say
:19:36. > :19:39."you aren't going to be sitting in a classroom but will be out in a car
:19:40. > :20:03.and will be doing testing and racing and marketing and the maths behind
:20:04. > :20:05.it..." And also English, because write letters for sponsorshhp,
:20:06. > :20:07.it brings everything togethdr. So what lessons have
:20:08. > :20:09.the pupils learned? But at events like this you
:20:10. > :20:13.don't have to be competitivd. You just have fun
:20:14. > :20:15.and then you'll probably be better Would these youngsters conshder

:21:04. > :21:07.period drama will be pleased to hear that filming on the new Poldark
:21:08. > :21:11.series has begun in Cornwall. The original series was scrdened
:21:12. > :21:14.in the '70s and became a huge hit. Spotlight's Eleanor Parkinson joined
:21:15. > :21:38.the actors at a secret location to Turn over. 40 years on, we have a
:21:39. > :21:43.new Ross Poldark. The new hdro is being played by the Irish actor
:21:44. > :21:46.Aidan Turner. Ross Poldark hs a gentleman minor and soldier whose
:21:47. > :21:52.adventures nearly always get him into trouble. How is Elizabdth? I
:21:53. > :21:58.only come to ask how she is. He is following in the footsteps of Robin
:21:59. > :22:02.Ellis. Back in the show had such a huge following that church times
:22:03. > :22:06.would be changed so people could stay in to watch it. But thd new
:22:07. > :22:11.actor isn't fazed. What do you make of the character
:22:12. > :22:15.Poldark? He's been done before. He has but I haven't seen him before, I
:22:16. > :22:20.haven't watched it. So I get to start all over again. I think
:22:21. > :22:25.originally, Ross's house was down there so it feels like a pidce of
:22:26. > :22:29.history. When filming began earlier this year, there was critichsm that
:22:30. > :22:33.some of it was being filmed outside the county but filming has now moved
:22:34. > :22:37.to Cornwall and they're detdrmined to get it right, right down to the
:22:38. > :22:41.accents. We're trying reallx hard. We've had a special voice coach We
:22:42. > :22:46.went to the Cornish council and got in touch with somebody therd who has
:22:47. > :22:50.been giving us absolute acctrate advice and talking to our voice
:22:51. > :22:55.coach about Cornish accents. As well as much of this production being
:22:56. > :23:01.filmed on location, they're also using a lot of Cornish actors. One
:23:02. > :23:09.of those is Tristan Sturrock. I play a village elder and he is `` has
:23:10. > :23:15.known Ross since early days before he went away to America. He is a
:23:16. > :23:19.good, honest, salt of the e`rth guy. Meanwhile, some of the actors have
:23:20. > :23:24.had to learn some new skills. There is a lot of horse riding in Poldark.

:23:39. > :23:42.Ross is quite the rider. So quite a bit of it, up and down the coast. It
:23:43. > :23:48.has been really good. Might take it up as a hobby, perhaps? I don't know
:23:49. > :23:53.if they'll let me. If I injtre myself in the job, it's find but if
:23:54. > :23:57.it's in my own time, I'll bd killed! The new series will be shown
:23:58. > :24:04.next spring and everyone is hoping it will be as big a hit as the
:24:05. > :24:08.original. The Cornish coast providing some
:24:09. > :24:11.spectacular scenery. Lots of comments about the idea of lore
:24:12. > :24:15.flexible school holidays. One comment that has come in vi`
:24:16. > :24:19.Facebook says, "as long as xour child has good attendance you should
:24:20. > :24:26.be able to take your child out of school for two weeks a year". Debra
:24:27. > :24:32.says, "it isn't just people who work in the tourism business who are
:24:33. > :24:35.affected. I can't take time off because I'm embroidering school
:24:36. > :24:39.uniforms in time for September" Have a look at our Facebook page to
:24:40. > :24:41.see what others are saying `nd add your own thoughts. Time to see what
:24:42. > :24:47.the weather has in store. Good evening and thank you for all
:24:48. > :24:56.the photographs we've been receiving. This has been sent in
:24:57. > :24:59.today. There is oration of starlings. What a fabulous
:25:00. > :25:07.photograph. Keep them coming to our e`mail address. Tomorrow is fine and
:25:08. > :25:13.very warm. We could see the highest temperature of the year so far, 25
:25:14. > :25:18.or possibly 26. Mostly dry but a very small chance of a few showers
:25:19. > :25:27.appearing. Pollen and UV ard both high. Enjoy the sunshine but be
:25:28. > :25:31.careful. Pressure pretty stdady at the moment. The area of high
:25:32. > :25:36.pressure is allowing a little cloud to trickle over the side of it over
:25:37. > :25:39.the next few days, which continues tomorrow into Friday and thd
:25:40. > :25:45.weekend. Not completely cle`r skies. Cloud will come and go, as
:25:46. > :25:47.we've seen today. The cloud is just about sick enough to generate a
:25:48. > :25:52.shower through the end of the afternoon into the early evdning. ``
:25:53. > :25:57.thick enough. We did have a lot of cloud first thing this mornhng. In
:25:58. > :26:01.Teignmouth there was quite ` bit of cloud but it soon broke up to allow
:26:02. > :26:06.some sunny spells and blue sky to come through. This part of Devon has
:26:07. > :26:10.enjoyed some lovely weather over the last few days and it will probably
:26:11. > :26:17.continue. One of the warmest places tomorrow will be somewhere hn the
:26:18. > :26:21.Torbay estuary. Torbay and Teignmouth could see temper`tures up
:26:22. > :26:30.to 26 degrees. Some fine we`ther it would be common, too. `` at Woodbury
:26:31. > :26:36.Common. A lot of the cloud will fade away tomorrow with clear skhes
:26:37. > :26:39.developing. A bit of mist and cloud towards the Isle of Scilly `nd the
:26:40. > :26:45.North Cornwall coast but ovdrnight temperatures no lower than 03 or 14.
:26:46. > :26:49.Tomorrow, patchy low cloud breaking up quite nicely to allow sole
:26:50. > :26:54.sunshine. A very small chance of seeing a shower but the main theme
:26:55. > :26:59.will be a very warm day with temperatures up to 25 or 26. For the
:27:00. > :27:02.Isles of Scilly, perhaps a little bit of mist around and then some
:27:03. > :27:12.sunshine. 17 or 18 the top temperature. Times of high water are
:27:13. > :27:22.on screen. The forecast for surfing is disappointing, the weight is not
:27:23. > :27:30.very big. The sea really is warm. `` the waves are not very big. Have a
:27:31. > :27:36.good evening. Just a reminder that Spotlight is on
:27:37. > :27:40.at the later time of 7:30pm tomorrow. That's all from us for
:27:41. > :27:45.this evening. Hope you can join us tomorrow. As a good evening. `` have
