Jersey fishermen are claiming they are being harassed and persdcuted | :00:14. | :00:59. | |
They say licences to fish in Guernsey waters have been | :01:00. | :01:04. | |
revoked under obscure reasons and now they are afraid to work | :01:05. | :01:06. | |
As the situation reaches a political stalemate, some say | :01:07. | :01:11. | |
Almost too afraid to leave Jersey's waters for fear of being victimised. | :01:12. | :01:24. | |
Historically, Jersey Fisherlen have worked around the Channel Islands, | :01:25. | :01:27. | |
but last year a licensing sxstem was introduced to manage fish stocks | :01:28. | :01:31. | |
Don has been in the trade for 3 years and says Jersey fishermen | :01:32. | :01:38. | |
I had my rights removed simply because I wouldn't qualify hn a very | :01:39. | :01:56. | |
short track record referencd period. Now we are seeing that things are | :01:57. | :02:03. | |
getting much worse and fishdrmen are being harassed and | :02:04. | :02:07. | |
licences taken away. The big concern is that | :02:08. | :02:13. | |

is Guernsey fisheries who won't move forward. There certainly sedms to be | :02:27. | :02:28. | |
an element in the Guernsey fisheries department that seems to be running | :02:29. | :02:34. | |
contrary to working to a good relationship with the Channdl | :02:35. | :02:39. | |
Islands, with Jersey. They seem to be imposing fines and punishments on | :02:40. | :02:44. | |
our fishermen that don't sedm to warrant whatever they are mdant to | :02:45. | :02:47. | |
have done. In a statement, Guernsey's Commerce | :02:48. | :02:48. | |
and Employment department, which is responsible for fisheries, confirms | :02:49. | :02:51. | |
that "all licensing decisions are conducted and made in accordance | :02:52. | :02:53. | |
with the relevant legislation." But it added that | :02:54. | :02:56. | |

because this wall was severdly damaged in the winter storms. | :05:34. | :05:35. | |
Due to its remoteness it?s not very easy to get a digger to the site. | :05:36. | :05:38. | |
All around Guernsey, the co`stline was battered this winter | :05:39. | :05:40. | |

And, from the West Show to Battle of Flowers now, as tonight hundreds | :09:04. | :09:08. | |
It's the 50th year the parish of Grouville has entered thd parade | :09:09. | :09:09. | |
and, as Chris Harrison reports, it's become a family affair. | :09:10. | :09:13. | |
To the parishioners of Grouville, it's five decades of memorids. | :09:14. | :09:24. | |
A group of parishioners, including my mother and father, deciddd to | :09:25. | :09:33. | |
make a float and they deciddd to go for it. Following year, thex put the | :09:34. | :09:39. | |
I remember it, just about, `lthough I wasn't very old. I have bden | :09:40. | :09:47. | |
involved ever since. The making of the float has been a | :09:48. | :09:51. | |
families of the parish of every generation. 50 years ago, I was | :09:52. | :09:55. | |
involved in the very beginnhng of the Battle of flowers. I did the | :09:56. | :10:02. | |
ordering and so on for 18 ydars and my daughter is still involvdd. Now | :10:03. | :10:07. | |
her daughter is Miss Battle of the flowers, so we have had a great deal | :10:08. | :10:08. | |
of interest in From the older generation to | :10:09. | :10:09. | |
the younger, My mum tells me when I was `bout one | :10:10. | :10:10. | |
she used to put me in a crate, so I have been hit pretty | :10:11. | :10:23. | |
much Katie?s dad Mark is | :10:24. | :10:25. | |
the parish chairman, My father was the very first driver | :10:26. | :10:35. | |
of the float. There were two drivers in those days, so he would have sat | :10:36. | :10:41. | |
very much like I am today, hn the drivers seat at the back of the | :10:42. | :10:44. | |
float. After my father, my tncle Walter took over. We have got along | :10:45. | :10:48. | |

Battle Day, but it is not looking good for tomorrow, is it? | :11:16. | :11:19. | |
We might be lucky, but therd is quite a high risk of seeing showers | :11:20. | :11:23. | |
tomorrow. We got away with ht today, it is a shame because not h`ve had a | :11:24. | :11:27. | |
battle of the flowers today it has been a fine day. Tomorrow | :11:28. | :11:31. | |
there is a much higher seeing showers, and it is blustery | :11:32. | :11:37. | |
to. A lair underneath for those dressing up might be needed. | :11:38. | :11:42. | |
Scattered showers, 17 or 18 degrees the top ten wind. The reason for the | :11:43. | :11:51. | |
change is a long way of at the moment. It is this lump of | :11:52. | :11:54. | |
here that is approaching thd west coast of Ireland. It will travel | :11:55. | :11:59. | |
down towards us overnight tonight. It is a line of showers, quhte a few | :12:00. | :12:03. | |
of them tucked in with it. Ht moves through Ireland across the West of | :12:04. | :12:07. | |
England, and arrives on our shores will be a feature into the | :12:08. | :12:11. | |
afternoon. By Friday, high pressure is back, but for | :12:12. | :12:18. | |
tomorrow, the showers are lhkely to be quite frequent. Overnight | :12:19. | :12:20. | |
tonight, there will be weather around initially, then | :12:21. | :12:23. | |
showers small powers of the morning. They | :12:24. | :12:31. | |
fade away for a time, but they will be back swiftly tomorrow morning, | :12:32. | :12:35. | |
overnight temperatures down to 4 degrees. Briefly some morning | :12:36. | :12:38. | |
sunshine tomorrow, but quickly the showers show up. | :12:39. | :12:42. | |
the morning onwards, those showers will | :12:43. | :12:47. | |
might get some sunshine in between the showers, but | :12:48. | :12:52. | |
frequent, tending to fade away towards the end of the afternoon. | :12:53. | :13:15. | |
Friday will be a nice day whth some sunshine, and a little bit warmer. | :13:16. | :13:24. | |
Lighter winds but still frol the north`west. The start of thd weekend | :13:25. | :13:27. | |
does not look too bad, increasingly cloudy through | :13:28. | :13:33. | |
Saturday. By the time we get to Sunday, a bit of a change. @ lot of | :13:34. | :13:39. | |
cloud and rain possible on Sunday. Those winds pick up again, becoming | :13:40. | :13:43. | |
mostly westerly to the course of the day. So tomorrow, quite a hhgh risk | :13:44. | :13:46. | |
of showers. Oh dear. David, thank you. We will | :13:47. | :13:54. | |
have all the highlights frol the Battle of the flowers tomorrow night | :13:55. | :14:00. | |

looks lean andage Lyle, aftdr noticeably losing weight, shrugged | :16:11. | :16:15. | |

A skydiver from Devon is prdparing for a world record`breaking event in | :17:41. | :17:43. | |
America. Maddy Heath`Kelly hs one of a handful of people from thd UK | :17:44. | :17:47. | |
selected to make the all`wolen jump in California. She's doing ht to | :17:48. | :17:50. | |
raise money for research into dementia, following her Mum's | :17:51. | :17:53. | |
diagnosis with the condition. Spotlight's John Danks has the | :17:54. | :17:55. | |
Jumping out of a plane at 12,00 feet, these images captured on the | :17:56. | :18:08. | |

a world record. The record hs formation skydive with betwden 20 | :18:22. | :18:28. | |
to 130 female sky divers from all over the world. It will be the | :18:29. | :18:32. | |
largest formation with multhple shapes, so we jump out and build one | :18:33. | :18:35. | |
shape, all let go and then another shape. It has to be at least | :18:36. | :18:40. | |
two shapes to be the new this jump. When I got offerdd a | :18:41. | :18:47. | |
place with when my mum became unwdll and | :18:48. | :18:52. | |
was diagnosed with fund`raising opportunity and raise | :18:53. | :19:01. | |
money for Alzheimer's Society at the same time. Her mum was diagnosed | :19:02. | :19:05. | |
She's been moved by Maddy's gesture. I'm | :19:06. | :19:11. | |
that anybody would think to put the two together like that and say, | :19:12. | :19:15. | |
right, I'm going to California and I'm fundraising at the same time. I | :19:16. | :19:22. | |
think good for her, you know, she's really doing well. | :19:23. | :19:24. | |
Now, how handy are you with a hammer? Probably not as good as a | :19:25. | :19:28. | |
group of men who descended on Devon today from all over the world. They | :19:29. | :19:32. | |
were here for the first day of an international Blacksmiths Fdstival. | :19:33. | :19:34. | |
We sent our reporter Heidi Davey along to Westpoint to have ` go | :19:35. | :19:37. | |
When I came into work today, this wasn't one of the jobs I thought I'd | :19:38. | :19:47. | |
end up doing. I have my gloves on, my safety glasses and my apron and | :19:48. | :19:54. | |
Don is here to teach me all I need to know. What's the plan? | :19:55. | :19:58. | |
what we're going to do, I'vd heard you need | :19:59. | :20:04. | |
coat at home, so the mission is we convert | :20:05. | :20:08. | |
finished item there. We havd to make that into a square? Square. That | :20:09. | :20:15. | |
sounds simple enough, but I'm not sure it is. Straight up and down | :20:16. | :20:19. | |
motion. That's it. All the way to the end. | :20:20. | :20:24. | |
flat bit. Flatten it up. Thdre's your one you prepared earlidr. We | :20:25. | :20:30. | |
need to turn it over there. Just over the end. Hit it. I took a | :20:31. | :20:33. | |
sneaky break from with Don to see what else w`s | :20:34. | :20:42. | |
happening around the show. Ht wasn't long before we came across the Welsh | :20:43. | :20:45. | |
contingent. There's not manx big festivals like this. So, for | :20:46. | :20:47. | |
blacksmiths like myself, I'l currently studying, but it's a | :20:48. | :20:52. | |
really important launch pad. It might be a profession you think | :20:53. | :20:55. | |
associate with being partictlarly male. But at the festival there are | :20:56. | :21:02. | |
several ladies showing the len how it's done. Wendy is one of them | :21:03. | :21:07. | |
You've been a blacksmith for how long? Longer than I'd dare to | :21:08. | :21:12. | |
30 How due years. First get into it? A pure accident. | :21:13. | :21:17. | |
environmental biology. I cotldn t find a job. Six months later I | :21:18. | :21:21. | |
so bored, I went for any job. I loved | :21:22. | :21:28. | |
it. Time to see how the trahnee and her hook | :21:29. | :21:34. | |
What, down? Yeah, go on. Have a look. How many | :21:35. | :21:42. | |
Oh, I'd give you an eight. That s not bad for a first | :21:43. | :21:51. | |
After all that hard work, I think I've earned a well deserved massage. | :21:52. | :21:55. | |
Thousands of people are getting ready for round two of a pyrotechnic | :21:56. | :21:58. | |
battle in the skies off Plylouth's waterfront tonight. Blitz Fhreworks | :21:59. | :22:01. | |

Simon Clemison watched the displays which this evening's compethtors | :22:04. | :22:05. | |
The hats and coats say Novelber but then again, so does the sky. This is | :22:06. | :22:18. | |
no Bonfire Night party, thotgh. This is serious competition. Hundred s of | :22:19. | :22:23. | |
kilograms of explosives battling it out to find a winner. Some of these | :22:24. | :22:32. | |
fireworks are home grown. Not that you'd want to attempt this | :22:33. | :22:35. | |
back garden. The crowds havd gathered in their thousands. Up | :22:36. | :22:40. | |
until now they've been eating and drinking. We've heard them laughing | :22:41. | :22:46. | |
and joking. Now the only two sounds emerging are oohhh and aahhh. If you | :22:47. | :22:53. | |
