:00:14. > :00:21.superhighway says someone else will die if changes aren't made
:00:21. > :00:29.immediately. It was just so needless, so needless. They have to
:00:29. > :00:31.do something about it today. If they don't, they're negligent.
:00:31. > :00:33.We'll hear from Transport for London on whether they plan to
:00:33. > :00:36.change the layout. Also tonight: a west London
:00:36. > :00:40.hospital closes its A&E overnight because it can't guarantee patient
:00:40. > :00:43.safety. Plus, look for a job job or lose
:00:43. > :00:53.your entitlement to a council home - the warning from one local
:00:53. > :00:55.
:00:55. > :00:58.authority in London. And:
:00:58. > :01:08.From the pavement to the West End stage - we're with the musicians
:01:08. > :01:14.
:01:14. > :01:17.marking 20 years of Stomp. Good evening.
:01:17. > :01:20.The widow of a cyclist killed on a Cycle Super Highway says someone
:01:20. > :01:22.else will die if changes aren't made immediately. Debbie Dorling
:01:22. > :01:30.says there's "a definite design fault" with the superhighway where
:01:30. > :01:37.her husband died. Two cyclists have lost their lives in accidents at
:01:37. > :01:39.the Bow roundabout in the space of three weeks. Most recently a 34-
:01:39. > :01:48.year-old woman collided with a lorry.
:01:48. > :01:52.Flowers on the Bow roundabout. This is one of the Mayor's flag ship
:01:52. > :02:00.superhighways. It encourages cyclists to use this route. As far
:02:00. > :02:02.back as February, campaigners told TFL the junction was woefully
:02:02. > :02:06.inadequate. Debbie Dorling's husband died there just three weeks
:02:06. > :02:15.ago, an experienced cyclist. He was on his way to work at the Olympic
:02:15. > :02:18.Park when he was killed by an HGV turning left. Our lives have been
:02:18. > :02:22.devastated, and I have personally been traumatised by everything
:02:22. > :02:26.that's happened. When I looked at the junction, it was just so
:02:26. > :02:30.needless, so needless, because somebody somewhere - what possessed
:02:30. > :02:37.them to actually design it the way they have I just - I can't
:02:38. > :02:43.understand it at all. This roundabout is just half a mile from
:02:43. > :02:47.the Olympic site, and it's meant to be one of the main routes there for
:02:47. > :02:53.cyclists. A number of times TfL and the Mayor have been told of
:02:53. > :02:57.concerns, as we showed in August, the blue lane stops in the middle
:02:57. > :03:03.of the junction. Newham doesn't want the highway in Stratford yet.
:03:03. > :03:07.You can see the cycle superhighway ends there - a very dangerous spot,
:03:07. > :03:15.and cyclists are then brought on to the pavement, which doesn't appear
:03:15. > :03:18.to be shared use at all. Over the weekend, cyclists on a
:03:18. > :03:22.ride highlighting dangerous junctions held a minute's silence
:03:22. > :03:29.to the 34-year-old woman who died on the roundabout Friday night.
:03:29. > :03:34.What's your message to the Mayor and to Transport for London?
:03:34. > :03:38.message to them is if they don't to something about that junction today,
:03:38. > :03:44.somebody else will be killed, and they need to sort the traffic flow
:03:44. > :03:47.out. What they've done is they've actually - it would appear that
:03:47. > :03:51.they've actually chosen speed of traffic over safety.
:03:51. > :04:00.Metropolitan Police are investigating all of these
:04:00. > :04:04.incidents, and they'll work with trveltrvel to see if there is --
:04:04. > :04:08.Transport for London to see if there is anything else we can do.
:04:08. > :04:14.Cycling has grown. There are vast numbers of cyclists on our roads.
:04:14. > :04:18.We need to make sure they feel safe. Meanwhile, drivers in both
:04:18. > :04:22.incidents have been arrested and bailed. There is no pressure from
:04:22. > :04:32.politicians, cyclists and the relatives who died at this junction
:04:32. > :04:33.
:04:33. > :04:37.Lots more to come, including: No third runway for now - the
:04:37. > :04:40.villagers moving out as the threat of airport expansion remains.
:04:40. > :04:45.Five teenagers have been convicted of killing a 15-year-old boy as he
:04:45. > :04:51.arrived at school in south London. Zac Olumegbon was stabbed four
:04:51. > :04:54.times, twice in the heart. The group will be sentenced next month.
:04:54. > :05:03.Alex Bushill has been following the case and joins us now from the Old
:05:03. > :05:06.Bailey. Alex? Ambushed outside his school, hunted down, then murdered.
:05:06. > :05:11.The 15-year-old and a younger friend were confronted by a rival
:05:11. > :05:18.gang as they arrived at school last year. Zac Olumegbon was a member of
:05:19. > :05:24.the Trust No-one Gang. His rivals were the Guns and Shanks gang of
:05:24. > :05:29.nearby Brixton. They were armed by at least two knives. They had
:05:29. > :05:35.driven to the school in Norwood, specifically to stab stack Zach.
:05:35. > :05:39.When he saw them arrive outside the school gates, he ran into Gypsy
:05:39. > :05:45.Road Gardens, it was there he was stabbed twice in the heart. He
:05:45. > :05:49.collapsed into the arms of one of his teachers. At the Old Bailey his
:05:49. > :05:55.defending council said he found himself hunted down and killed. He
:05:55. > :06:00.had only just arrived at school. He died metres from it. As for his
:06:00. > :06:07.friend, he sought sanctuary inside the grounds of the school. It did
:06:07. > :06:17.him little good. He was repeatedly stabbed in the arm. Today four
:06:17. > :06:17.
:06:17. > :06:24.teens were found guilty of murder, one for manslaughter. They will all
:06:24. > :06:27.be sentenced next month. Thanks for that update.

:06:40. > :06:42.Danielle Jackson from Wembley were fatally injured at the Lava and
:06:42. > :06:45.Ignite nightclub in Northampton last month as people rushed to
:06:45. > :06:47.leave the building. Northampton Borough Council said that the
:06:47. > :06:50.license would not be re-instated after the company which owned the
:06:50. > :06:54.club went into administration. The Labour MP Alan Keen has died at
:06:55. > :06:58.the age of 73 after a battle with cancer. Mr Keen had been the MP for
:06:58. > :07:00.Feltham and Heston in west London since 1992. He was known for his

:07:05. > :07:08.emergency department overnight over concerns it doesn't have enough
:07:08. > :07:17.staff to run it safely. The Central Middlesex Hospital will close its
:07:17. > :07:20.A&E to nighttime admissions from tonight. The move comes as Health
:07:20. > :07:23.Service managers in the area have started discussions over what three
:07:23. > :07:25.local hospitals will be doing in the future. Here's our political
:07:25. > :07:28.correspondent Karl Mercer. Business as usual at the Central
:07:28. > :07:31.Middlesex Hospital this afternoon, but from this evening, things are
:07:31. > :07:33.changing The A&E here is to close overnight - temporarily we're told
:07:33. > :07:38.- because there simply aren't enough consultants here to run it
:07:38. > :07:42.through the night. It's a temporary closure, which was made in an
:07:42. > :07:45.expedient fashion because we reached a point where there weren't
:07:45. > :07:47.sufficient permanent members of staff overnight here for us to
:07:47. > :07:49.assure ourselves that patient safety wasn't going to be
:07:49. > :07:53.compromised. All of which is a blow to Bridie
:07:53. > :07:56.Ahmed, a frequent visitor to the Central Mid's A&E in and out on
:07:56. > :08:01.dozens of occasions over the past few years, as she lives with a
:08:01. > :08:07.long-term illness. It's like my second home. I spend a lot of time
:08:07. > :08:11.down there in outpatients and in A&E, and last weekend when I found
:08:11. > :08:16.out they were going to close it at nighttime, I was or Fayeed. I
:08:16. > :08:20.thought I have to do something about this. I need it. I don't want
:08:20. > :08:23.to go to the other hospital or St Mary's. I want my local hospital.
:08:23. > :08:26.The temporary closure of the A&E comes as local managers look to
:08:26. > :08:28.find a more permanent solution to the future of three local hospitals.
:08:29. > :08:31.Among the options suggested are plans to shut the emergency
:08:31. > :08:33.departments at Ealing and the Central Middlesex, moving them to
:08:34. > :08:35.nearby Northwick Park. That despite these words from the Health
:08:35. > :08:40.Secretary, when we interviewed him last month.
:08:40. > :08:44.Before the election, people were saying oh, the A&E department at
:08:44. > :08:48.Ealing is under threat, but I have no expectation there will be any
:08:48. > :08:54.let. Andrew Lansley has said that'lling's A&E will be safe, but
:08:54. > :08:58.I am afraid his track record on protecting A&Es in thereon is about
:08:58. > :09:04.as bad as it could be, and I'm afraid it looks like the A&E at
:09:04. > :09:12.Ealing will go as well. Already in the last year three have had their
:09:12. > :09:20.futures decided. Queen Mary's has been decided. The Union and the
:09:21. > :09:26.King Korge are set to go. More work needs to be done at
:09:26. > :09:31.looking at what the benefits are of consolidation. There are many
:09:31. > :09:35.benefits of consolidating services into smaller areas, but at the same
:09:35. > :09:41.time everything is done due to local consultation. The whole point
:09:41. > :09:45.of the merger is to try to make sense of a massive deficit which
:09:45. > :09:48.has unfortunately been around with NHS London for years now. This is
:09:48. > :09:52.all about trying to find wives keeping all three going sca. There
:09:52. > :09:56.will be a public consultation on the future of health care in north-
:09:56. > :09:59.west London. The decision on these hospitals expected next July.
:09:59. > :10:02.Tube drivers have threatened to strike at Christmas if they're not
:10:02. > :10:05.paid an extra �350 for working on Boxing Day. Members of the ASLEF
:10:05. > :10:11.Union,- which represents more 1,500 drivers, have warned of walkouts
:10:11. > :10:15.that could include Christmas Eve or Boxing Day itself. They are
:10:15. > :10:24.demanding triple pay and a day in lieu for working on Boxing Day and
:10:24. > :10:27.have given tube chiefs official notice of a strike ballot.
:10:27. > :10:30.Should people who are not in and not actively looking for work be
:10:30. > :10:33.refused a council home? That's what local politicians in Wandsworth are
:10:33. > :10:35.proposing. This week councillors will vote on a pilot scheme that
:10:35. > :10:38.will change the terms and conditions for new residents moving
:10:38. > :10:41.in to council accommodation. But housing groups have hit out at the
:10:41. > :10:44.plans, saying that vulnerable people could be put at risk. Ayshea
:10:44. > :10:49.Buksh reports. Here in Wandsworth, there are 17,000 people living in
:10:49. > :10:53.social housing such as this. Their tenancy agreements mean if they
:10:53. > :10:56.want to, they have a home for life, and that's something the council
:10:56. > :11:01.wants to drastically change. The council are looking to restrict
:11:01. > :11:04.their social housing in the future. Anyone who is unemployed must prove
:11:05. > :11:08.they're actively seeking work. understand times are tough at the
:11:08. > :11:12.moment and jobs aren't that easy to come by. However, the one thing
:11:12. > :11:17.that is certain in life is if you don't bother to apply, you're never
:11:17. > :11:24.going to get one. What we're looking for is evidence people are
:11:24. > :11:28.trying to obtain work either by applying for training or applying
:11:28. > :11:31.for jobs. It's not the first time they have made headlines over
:11:31. > :11:35.restricting council accommodation. Following the riots this summer,
:11:35. > :11:39.they decided to evict any tenants involved in the violence. So far,
:11:39. > :11:43.only one family has been affected. While their son's case goes through
:11:43. > :11:49.the courts, the council is preparing to take action. There are
:11:49. > :11:54.currently 6,5 hundred people on the housing waiting list in Wandsworth.
:11:54. > :11:56.For the Leader of the Opposition, the councillor needs to urgently
:11:56. > :12:00.address the housing crisis. Part of the solution is building more
:12:00. > :12:05.houses and providing more accommodation. Starting to make
:12:05. > :12:09.rules and regulations is not really the way forward. OK. Incentivise
:12:09. > :12:15.people in work and some other categories perhaps, but that
:12:15. > :12:19.doesn't solve the housing crisis. am not in favour of reducing the
:12:19. > :12:24.allocations towards people who are in the greatest need. I think the
:12:24. > :12:29.argument is about how do we supply housing to those who are most in
:12:29. > :12:31.need in society? The council's Housing Committee will decide
:12:31. > :12:34.whether or not to introduce the scheme this week.
:12:34. > :12:37.The Tottenham MP David Lammy has criticised the level of financial
:12:37. > :12:40.help given to those whose homes and businesses were damaged during the
:12:40. > :12:43.London riots. He said that the response by insurance companies and
:12:43. > :12:53.banks since riots and looting broke out in the summer had been
:12:53. > :12:56.
:12:56. > :13:00.You fall on hard times, you axe -- you expect help. It is not
:13:00. > :13:06.acceptable that if you go to a disaster zone, people are helped
:13:06. > :13:10.three months later, in this country its people are standing destitute.
:13:10. > :13:13.The insurance companies have been woeful, shame on them. Banks were
:13:13. > :13:17.who were bailed out by British taxpayers are still charging
:13:17. > :13:25.interest on properties that are no longer standing. Shame to be living
:13:25. > :13:28.in Britain in 2011 and see that happen. I'm joined now by Lance
:13:28. > :13:31.Chinnian, whose flat was one of 27 destroyed after a carpet shop was
:13:31. > :13:34.set on fire in Tottenham. Thank you for coming in, do you were at that
:13:34. > :13:41.debate this morning. Remind us of your experience on the night your
:13:41. > :13:44.flat was set on fire. I was at home as most of my neighbours were, we
:13:44. > :13:49.knew there was rioting going on as it was all over the news channels.
:13:49. > :13:53.I think about 3 o'clock in the morning, our alarm went within the
:13:53. > :13:57.building. Within a few seconds people were banging on the door
:13:57. > :14:01.shouting get out, fire. We managed to get down the fire escape, there
:14:01. > :14:06.was already smoke coming up. When we came out of the building we
:14:06. > :14:09.could see the carpet shop was on fire. It must have been terrifying.
:14:09. > :14:14.I know you have had help with your mortgage, what about the other
:14:14. > :14:18.claims you are involved in? How easy or difficult has it been?
:14:18. > :14:23.have had a lot of support from the council. Wonderful support from a
:14:23. > :14:27.variety of sources. In terms of the insurance claims and the
:14:27. > :14:32.compensation claims for people who did not have insurance, it seems to
:14:32. > :14:36.be one obstacle after another. of this is because it comes under
:14:36. > :14:41.the Riot Damages Act, how easy as that been to claim under?
:14:41. > :14:46.process itself was reasonably easy in terms of filling in the form,
:14:46. > :14:49.submitting paperwork, trying to get evidence of what property you had
:14:49. > :14:54.in the flat. But it seems to have gone into a black hole. Of all the
:14:54. > :14:59.people who have applied that I know, not a single person has had any
:14:59. > :15:03.payout at all. You have had no money? No money at all in terms of
:15:04. > :15:07.the compensation claim. This is one big stumbling block that is
:15:07. > :15:12.preventing people from moving on. People are keen to put this behind
:15:12. > :15:16.them and move on, yet without some kind of money to start rebuilding

:19:58. > :20:02.capital's best kept secrets to the public. And now Prince Charles has
:20:02. > :20:04.added his support to it. Which is perhaps not all that surprising as
:20:04. > :20:09.the building in question is, in effect, his local church. Gareth
:20:09. > :20:14.Furby is at Westminster Abbey for us now. Gareth, sounds intriguing?
:20:14. > :20:19.Yes, it is. You can't often say this, but this is a genuinely
:20:19. > :20:24.secret part of London. Somewhere the public haven't seen since it
:20:24. > :20:28.was billed back in the 13th century. Today, I was lucky enough to get a
:20:28. > :20:32.sneak preview -- since it was built. It involved a steep climb and
:20:32. > :20:37.descent of this building. London's tourists must have explored every
:20:37. > :20:45.inch of the abbey. Surely there are no secrets left. But there is one,
:20:45. > :20:49.and it is through this door. There are 78 steps to climb. I have
:20:50. > :20:55.counted everyone. And that awkward access is the reason why the try
:20:55. > :21:00.for him... It means third layer, has been off-limits to the public.
:21:00. > :21:04.Now the late poet Sir John Betjeman said the view from here was the
:21:04. > :21:08.best in Europe and he may have had a point. I think it is an amazing
:21:08. > :21:13.view, I think it gives you an extraordinary vision of this
:21:13. > :21:18.remarkable Gothic building. What is also remarkable are the faces on
:21:18. > :21:24.the walls. Again, hidden from public view and dating back to the
:21:24. > :21:30.13th century. Is mirrored -- represent a king, and a good way
:21:30. > :21:36.Monk but it is part of the decoration -- it might represent a
:21:36. > :21:41.king, and Abbott or a monk. This is a grotesque. There is a great
:21:41. > :21:46.medieval tradition. Sometimes it was to remind people, to frighten
:21:46. > :21:50.them, to remind them of the need to lead good lives. Much of Britain's
:21:50. > :21:55.history is remembered within these walls, so why keep some of it
:21:55. > :22:00.hidden? Prince Charles has now backed a campaign to raise �12
:22:00. > :22:04.million to open the third layer. want to open up this space, we want
:22:04. > :22:09.people to have the experience of coming into this secret part of the
:22:09. > :22:13.Abbey, and we want to display up here a great many of art treasures.
:22:13. > :22:18.One thing they will have to build is a lift, as even the journey down
:22:18. > :22:21.can be awkward. They will have to find the money to
:22:21. > :22:26.build a lift that fits with the architecture, and that alone will
:22:26. > :22:30.cost a lot. The Abbey is adamant the money can now be raised, now
:22:30. > :22:35.that Prince Charles is on board, and they say this could happen as
:22:35. > :22:38.soon as 2014. It's the West End show which began
:22:38. > :22:48.life on the streets of London and went on to take banging, knocking
:22:48. > :22:53.
:22:53. > :23:01.performance today in the square where it all began. Our
:23:01. > :23:11.entertainment correspondent, Brenda Emmanus, reports.
:23:11. > :23:15.Matchboxes. Brooms. And bins. Just a few of the simple props that
:23:15. > :23:24.along with their unique synchronised movement and physical
:23:24. > :23:29.comedy have made Stomp a worldwide sensation. Today, the trip by in
:23:29. > :23:34.Covent Garden Piazza, with a special performance celebrating 10
:23:34. > :23:38.years in the West End -- the troupe are in. This is where I started as
:23:38. > :23:41.a street performer years ago. All week, we worked there, earned our
:23:41. > :23:47.money and it was one of the first places where we did a routine with
:23:47. > :23:54.the big dustbins. Over 14 million people have experienced this award-
:23:54. > :23:56.winning show, which has seen the cast involving everything from
:23:56. > :24:00.advertisements and major awards ceremonies like the Oscars to
:24:00. > :24:04.performances on world stages, including several performances in
:24:04. > :24:08.London. I think rhythm and humour are universal languages and if you
:24:08. > :24:11.put them together, you get something that hits to the core. It
:24:12. > :24:16.is great, because there is no barrier with language, any
:24:16. > :24:20.nationality can come and see it, which suits the West End and New
:24:20. > :24:25.York. It means we can travel all over the world and communicate with
:24:25. > :24:28.different people. You make it look very easy, how difficult is it?
:24:28. > :24:33.When we first begin, it is really hard. You get into the show, it
:24:33. > :24:38.takes about a year, I would say, until you have a better
:24:38. > :24:43.understanding of what you have to do. Is it important that a show
:24:43. > :24:48.like this is in the West End? Definitely. It needs different
:24:48. > :24:54.stuff. I am a West End Wendy, I love West End shows, the old stuff,
:24:54. > :24:58.the new stuff, but Stomp is very different. 20 years of playing
:24:58. > :25:02.loudly and proudly together, with enough success to warrant four
:25:02. > :25:07.touring companies around the world, home fans can feel the noise at the
:25:07. > :25:10.ambassadors Theatre. We have just a few days to go until
:25:10. > :25:16.Children In Need and we'd love you to help us raise money, simply by
:25:16. > :25:20.having a good night out. Last year we invited you to watch Pudsey on
:25:20. > :25:26.the West End stage with the team of Jersey Boys. Before that, he joined
:25:26. > :25:33.Mamma Mia. This year, Pudsey will join a Gala performance of the
:25:34. > :25:36.musical Rock Of Ages on Wednesday, and you can be there too. To find
:25:36. > :25:44.out how just go to our website, bbc.co.uk/london, where you'll can
:25:44. > :25:47.Now, let's take a look at the weather with Peter.
:25:47. > :25:51.You look like you are wrapped up warmly.
:25:52. > :25:58.I am. What a change. Over the weekend we had the lovely autumn
:25:58. > :26:03.sunshine. Today our weather has reverted to type, some poppy --
:26:03. > :26:07.proper November anti cyclonic gloom. This week, a dull, bank start.
:26:07. > :26:11.Don't despair because as we go through the week, very gradually
:26:11. > :26:17.skies will brighten and by the end of the week, it won't feel quite so
:26:17. > :26:21.chilly. This evening, the mist and drizzle is closing in, the cloud is
:26:21. > :26:26.shrouding the tops of the North Downs. Already some fog on the
:26:26. > :26:30.higher parts of the M25. The cloud shrouding tops of the Chiltern
:26:30. > :26:36.Hills as well, fog as the M40 climbs up past High Wycombe. Watch
:26:36. > :26:41.out for that have -- if you are driving. Overnight, it will turn
:26:41. > :26:46.quite chilly, minimum temperatures of six or seven. We have mist and
:26:46. > :26:50.drizzle to contend with. Tomorrow morning, a bit of deja-vu, but I
:26:50. > :26:54.think the day will dry up and brighten up by the afternoon. Some
:26:54. > :26:59.light grey sky, perhaps a bit of blue. If we get some sunshine
:26:59. > :27:04.breaking through, the temperature will lift to 11 or 12. We have been
:27:04. > :27:08.hovering around 10 degrees. Midweek and a bit brighter on Wednesday,
:27:08. > :27:13.perhaps the odd shower to the north of London on Thursday. The outlook
:27:13. > :27:23.for the end of the week, temperatures heading back into the
:27:23. > :27:24.
:27:24. > :27:26.mid-teens, just in time for next Tonight's headlines: two men, Gary
:27:26. > :27:31.Dobson and David Norris, have appeared in court charged with the
:27:31. > :27:34.murder of Stephen Lawrence, 18 years after the teenager's death.
