with each side blaming the other. That's all from the BBC News at | :00:00. | :00:13. | |
Evening mangrove. The headlhnes `` good evening. | :00:14. | :00:15. | |
Could we see a price war at the tills? | :00:16. | :00:17. | |
The fixed cost of milk in Gternsey is set to be scrapped | :00:18. | :00:19. | |
in a bid to strengthen the island's dairy industry. | :00:20. | :00:21. | |
The agony and the heartache ` the wait for a Commonwealth medal | :00:22. | :00:25. | |
continues as Jersey narrowlx miss out on a bronze medal. | :00:26. | :00:30. | |
It is a brilliant match. We thought we had it and it went down to the | :00:31. | :00:39. | |
last two bowls. So we are disappointed. | :00:40. | :00:40. | |
And as the Glasgow Games ard applauded for including | :00:41. | :00:42. | |
para`athletes, we examine why there were none from the Channel Hslands. | :00:43. | :00:53. | |
The fixed price of milk in Guernsey could be scrapped as part | :00:54. | :00:56. | |
of a major overhaul of the island's dairy industry. | :00:57. | :01:00. | |
It would give shops the power to charge what thdy want. | :01:01. | :01:02. | |
The proposals ` which affect everyone | :01:03. | :01:04. | |
from farmers to milkmen ` ahm to encourage growth in the indtstry. | :01:05. | :01:08. | |
So this is where it starts ` the Guernsey cow. | :01:09. | :01:13. | |
Although the cows themselves are obviously oblivious to that. | :01:14. | :01:21. | |
And the States want to not only protect this breed, but the | :01:22. | :01:24. | |
The dairy industry has, of course, changed over the years ` | :01:25. | :01:30. | |
but the report, out today, says compared to a decade ago it's | :01:31. | :01:32. | |
And the aim is to make sure that remains the case. | :01:33. | :01:40. | |
So some changes are still ndeded ` firstly for farmers, | :01:41. | :01:43. | |
Really, they've put a sort of false ceiling to anybody's business and | :01:44. | :01:57. | |
maybe stopped any thoughts of expansion. I think whenever young | :01:58. | :02:05. | |
people are interested in coling into the industry, you need to h`ve | :02:06. | :02:07. | |
To better protect farmers and the dairy, there won't be any | :02:08. | :02:09. | |
We find ourselves in a position where we can bring in reallx robust | :02:10. | :02:19. | |
legislation which will guar`ntee that we can ban milk imports and | :02:20. | :02:25. | |
that gives a lot more certahnty to the farmers and the dairy, | :02:26. | :02:28. | |
The big change for consumers is that the fixed price for milk will go ` | :02:29. | :02:29. | |
so shops can potentially ch`rge what they want. | :02:30. | :02:37. | |
Is I think it will give the retailers the opportunity to | :02:38. | :02:46. | |
discount milk. What make about as more and more milk sales drhfting | :02:47. | :02:51. | |
into the supermarkets who are able to do that. | :02:52. | :02:52. | |
So big changes ` but ones which ultimately ahm to | :02:53. | :02:54. | |
make sure the Guernsey cow darns its way, and is here to stax. | :02:55. | :02:57. | |
A 65`year`old man from Guernsey has been sentenced to 12 years hn prison | :02:58. | :03:02. | |
for raping and indecently assaulting underage girls in the 1970s and 80s. | :03:03. | :03:06. | |
Neil Hastie, a former taxi driver was fotnd | :03:07. | :03:07. | |
The judge said he lacked anx sense of remorse for his actions | :03:08. | :03:13. | |
A ?45 million power cable between Jersey and Guernsey could | :03:14. | :03:20. | |
Guernsey's electricity comp`ny wants a second cable | :03:21. | :03:25. | |
Guernsey politicians today approved the loan the electricity | :03:26. | :03:29. | |
The States also agreed a raft of measures to push ahead whth plans | :03:30. | :03:36. | |
It will pave the way for more recycling, shipping some | :03:37. | :03:41. | |
waste off`island, possibly to Jersey, and spreading composted food | :03:42. | :03:44. | |
But there were environmental concerns raised during the debate. | :03:45. | :03:57. | |
Undoubtedly green waste composting and food waste composting h`ppens in | :03:58. | :04:07. | |
the UK but the material outputs for that process are spread on `reas | :04:08. | :04:15. | |
which are not as tight as Gternsey. and our entire Ayr farmland at as a | :04:16. | :04:24. | |
water catchment area. The lawn bowls women's pairs were | :04:25. | :04:26. | |
in a bronze medal play`off latch It would have been | :04:27. | :04:27. | |
the first Commonwealth Games medal And, as Emma Chambers reports, | :04:28. | :04:30. | |
it went down to the last end. Jersey pair Katie Nixon and | :04:31. | :04:33. | |
Lindsey Greechan were playing superbly in a match that cotld win | :04:34. | :04:38. | |
Jersey their first medal By the halfway point, | :04:39. | :04:40. | |
they were fours points ahead of But this powerful bowl from | :04:41. | :04:46. | |
Northern Ireland's Barbara Cameron They were now level | :04:47. | :04:52. | |
at nine points each. With a bronze medal on the horizon, | :04:53. | :05:04. | |
Jersey needed to keep their focus. Their supporters were feeling | :05:05. | :05:10. | |
the tension. When they slipped behind | :05:11. | :05:13. | |
in the 17th end, Greechan ddlivered It would all come down to the final | :05:14. | :05:15. | |
end to decide the bronze medal. With one of Cameron's last bowls | :05:16. | :05:28. | |
of the match, she smashed Jersey's bowls ` and | :05:29. | :05:38. | |
their medal dreams. By just one point, | :05:39. | :05:44. | |
Northern Ireland had won A disappointing and heartbrdaking | :05:45. | :05:46. | |
end to what could have been Jersey's Well, after the match, Emma | :05:47. | :05:52. | |
caught up with the Jersey tdam. A defeat for the Jersey pairs. | :05:53. | :06:23. | |
Lindsay and Katie join me now. How are you feeling? Very disappointed. | :06:24. | :06:28. | |
It was a brilliant match and we thought we had it and it went down | :06:29. | :06:35. | |
to the last two bowls, so wd are disappointed. You were leadhng and | :06:36. | :06:40. | |
dominating the match most of the way. I think you only fell behind | :06:41. | :06:46. | |
twice in the whole game. Ye`h, I mean, we were a couple down and we | :06:47. | :06:52. | |
got the second ball and the skip played a good bowl and we h`ven t | :06:53. | :06:57. | |
really been dropping counts so it was quite a crucial end. Just | :06:58. | :07:04. | |
devastated. Did the weight of a possible medal on your shoulders | :07:05. | :07:08. | |
play any part in today? probably the scariest much we've | :07:09. | :07:15. | |
ever played but I road on that and the adrenaline got | :07:16. | :07:29. | |
us going and we both had a good game that something to be pleased about? | :07:30. | :07:39. | |
I'm sure when we get home and the time being, it is still too raw | :07:40. | :07:51. | |
Thank you very much. There is still some Channel Island | :07:52. | :07:55. | |
interest left at the games. Jersey don't have a team | :07:56. | :07:57. | |
at the Games. It's live here on BBC One, | :07:58. | :07:58. | |
as is the women's and men's cycling We've got plenty of riders, | :07:59. | :08:00. | |
including Guernsey's Tobyn Horton. As the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow | :08:01. | :08:07. | |
come to an end this weekend, it's been applauded | :08:08. | :08:10. | |
for integrating disability sports. Nations such as Rwanda, | :08:11. | :08:12. | |
Cameroon and Mauritius are among the 22 countries that have | :08:13. | :08:15. | |
sent disabled athletes to compete. But none have gone from the | :08:16. | :08:19. | |
Channel Islands. In a special report, Mike Whlkins | :08:20. | :08:22. | |
looks at the reasons why and whether These para`athletes are havhng their | :08:23. | :08:25. | |
chance to compete on a glob`l stage. 22 countries have sent para`athletes | :08:26. | :08:36. | |
to the Commonwealth Games ` One of those who would love to have | :08:37. | :08:39. | |
been there is this Guernsey Sarah started swimming | :08:40. | :08:45. | |
when she was four Following weeks in a coma, | :08:46. | :08:48. | |
she suffered brain damage She's one of the island's top | :08:49. | :08:54. | |
hopes for the next Paralymphcs. But competing with the best comes | :08:55. | :09:01. | |
at a cost ` with travel, specialist equipment | :09:02. | :09:03. | |
and someone to physically hdlp her. She says she doesn't really get | :09:04. | :09:07. | |
any financial support on island They could make it more equ`l. I | :09:08. | :09:24. | |
think they fund more for able`bodied athletes, rather than disabled. I've | :09:25. | :09:29. | |
contacted the Guernsey sports commission because I want to do | :09:30. | :09:36. | |
nationals at the swearing in November but I first started in | :09:37. | :09:44. | |
February and I've still not about an actual definite answer, so they | :09:45. | :09:49. | |
might have forgotten. I don't know. Sarah is training hard by md and | :09:50. | :09:52. | |
has to meet some very tough financial commitments to be`t | :09:53. | :09:54. | |
abroad. But it isn't just the money. Sarah's disability category means | :09:55. | :10:00. | |
that she won't be allowed to compete at some events. | :10:01. | :10:01. | |
Each disabled athlete falls into a category. | :10:02. | :10:03. | |
For swimming there are categories ranging from S1 to S10. | :10:04. | :10:05. | |
Sarah's classed as S5, but at the Games in Glasgow they're | :10:06. | :10:06. | |
For more categories to open up, more countries need to be | :10:07. | :10:13. | |
represented ` something the patron of Guernsey's Disability | :10:14. | :10:16. | |
Alliance and former Paralympian Tanni Grey`Thompson is callhng for. | :10:17. | :10:23. | |
Just a platform. There are lot of people here who will get no coverage | :10:24. | :10:33. | |
at home but the Commonwealth gives them that so Glasgow has been | :10:34. | :10:40. | |
amazing but we need to keep working to get more countries sending | :10:41. | :10:43. | |
athletes and that means acttally having | :10:44. | :10:49. | |
there yet across the whole Commonwealth. | :10:50. | :10:51. | |
Well, speaking from Glasgow, Guernsey's Sports Commission says | :10:52. | :10:52. | |
efforts are under way ` but don't expect anything soon. | :10:53. | :10:56. | |
What we're doing at the momdnt is trying to create the environment | :10:57. | :11:04. | |
within sport where we can look to send a Paralympics team in the | :11:05. | :11:06. | |
future but I think that's Taking away the financial | :11:07. | :11:09. | |
and category obstacles, for athletes like Sarah, thd chance | :11:10. | :11:10. | |
to compete is an opportunitx to be Two it looks like the weathdr turns | :11:11. | :11:11. | |
more unsettled this weekend. cloudy start tomorrow but things get | :11:12. | :11:41. | |
better. Yesterday her fellow Kings Club | :11:42. | :11:44. | |
bowler Sophie Tolchard took gold Plymouth Leander swimmer Ben Proud | :11:45. | :14:16. | |
is still our most successful competitor with | :14:17. | :14:30. | |
two golds and a bronze. Divers Sarah Barrow and Tonha Couch | :14:31. | :14:32. | |
took silver in the women's synchronised 10m | :14:33. | :14:34. | |
platform but missed out in Another Torquay bowler Sam Tolchard | :14:35. | :14:37. | |
took a bronze in the men's pairs. Back in the pool Exeter's Lham | :14:38. | :14:41. | |
Tancock took two bronzes the place to be forlorn bowls and on | :14:42. | :14:57. | |

start did her best to keep England on top | :15:24. | :15:30. | |
against opponents thought she had a chance | :15:31. | :15:36. | |
she would step up and knock not take no for an answer. They were | :15:37. | :15:47. | |
in a position to take the thtle in the very final end. Mel | :15:48. | :15:52. | |
knock out two of their thred bowls and she delivered. She has saved the | :15:53. | :15:55. | |
match. They went and the South Africans took the lead | :15:56. | :16:01. | |
for the first time mark. Could Natalie Melmore weave | :16:02. | :16:10. | |
her magic again? Sadly not. Just inches away from a gold med`l. A | :16:11. | :16:15. | |
second single `` Silva for and silver as well for her fiance as | :16:16. | :16:23. | |
he could as they lost to Scotland. They | :16:24. | :16:36. | |
played well medal it has been a successful Games | :16:37. | :16:47. | |
for the Torquay club. Sophie Tolchard won gold last night | :16:48. | :16:51. | |
and Natalie Melmore made it double success by adding a silver ledal to | :16:52. | :16:56. | |
the silver that she won earlier the week. We were talking to both of | :16:57. | :17:03. | |
them in Glasgow today. The two club members with md now and | :17:04. | :17:09. | |

Tolchard. Gold in the triplds last Yes, we did, going by the scoreline. | :17:17. | :17:27. | |
It was a fine start and we played well. It was fantastic. A great way | :17:28. | :17:30. | |
to round off the first Commonwealth Games. Have you enjoyed it? I have | :17:31. | :17:35. | |
loved it. It was doing the opening ceremony. Winning | :17:36. | :17:41. | |
the gold experience. Natalie, you have two | :17:42. | :17:48. | |
silver medals and you can and it was an extra end that you | :17:49. | :17:56. | |

factors so to come away come true. How nice is it to get | :18:26. | :18:32. | |
extra coverage on the televhsion? a really positive light on bowls and | :18:33. | :18:39. | |
we have had so many has been fantastic for bowls. Thank | :18:40. | :18:45. | |

this done for put us on the map and done wonders | :19:09. | :19:25. | |
for bowls in the area. It h`s changed the face of bowls. | :19:26. | :19:38. | |
game. Do you think that youngsters have change that image. | :19:39. | :19:50. | |
They have brought glamour to the game. Paul, lawn bowls has lade a | :19:51. | :20:02. | |
name for itself, how proud H knew of the quartet? | :20:03. | :20:30. | |
who wants to play bowls can pick it up now and come out and plax bowls. | :20:31. | :20:57. | |
It is not only lawn bowls btt it is hockey as well. | :20:58. | :21:03. | |
It's nearly time for Plymouth diver Tom Dalex to show | :21:04. | :21:05. | |

changing sports, tonight's speedway in Plymouth has been postponed due | :21:35. | :21:38. | |
to a waterlogged track. Bowles is a very addictive game. I enjoxed it a | :21:39. | :22:10. | |
lot when I had a go. The Tour Of Britain cycling race is | :22:11. | :22:12. | |

of spectators came out to w`tch the sport's biggest names b`ttle it | :22:27. | :22:28. | |

event it also brings with it a welcome boost to the local | :22:32. | :22:34. | |
economy, as Andy Birkett reports. Remember this? The Tour of Britain | :22:35. | :22:44. | |
is returning to Devon. Therd will be a new route. According to | :22:45. | :22:54. | |
Bournemouth to Exeter, how hard can that be? It depends on what way | :22:55. | :23:07. | |
before going to Dartmouth. They will loop | :23:08. | :23:17. | |
