Tonight on BBC London News, we expose the animal cruelty behind one | :00:09. | :00:18. | |
coffees. I am absolutely certain that this coffee comes onto the | :00:18. | :00:25. | |
London market. We investigate this lucrative end of the coffee trade. | :00:25. | :00:30. | |
Also tonight: Thames Water faces opposition from the regulator over | :00:30. | :00:35. | |
its proposed price rise. Plus, like thousands of others, this mother | :00:35. | :00:38. | |
cannot afford to buy a home in London. Would a cap on lending help? | :00:39. | :00:47. | |
And... How this humble bandstand in Beckenham launched the career of a | :00:47. | :00:49. | |
Good evening and welcome to the programme. It is marketed as one of | :00:49. | :01:13. | |
Consumers are told that Kopi Luwak expensive copies, so that sky—high | :01:13. | :01:26. | |
Consumers are told that Kopi Luwak is produced from the droppings of | :01:26. | :01:30. | |
wild civet cats. However, some are being intensively farmed with their | :01:30. | :01:31. | |
coffee drinkers and we have been product being misleadingly sold | :01:31. | :01:44. | |
told the coffee from caged animals and is up on the London market. | :01:44. | :01:48. | |
These London coffee traders are copying, similar to wine tasters, to | :01:48. | :01:52. | |
test the quality of rare coffee But there is one beverage this | :01:52. | :01:54. | |
important refuses to deal with. But there is one beverage this | :01:54. | :02:01. | |
is made from beans found in the droppings of wild animal. Anyone who | :02:01. | :02:13. | |
scratches the of it will realise that the product is produced in | :02:13. | :02:15. | |

a cup in the capital. We head to beverage was inspired by the story | :02:33. | :02:41. | |
of Kopi Luwak. In the 18th century, it was discovered that the luwak had | :02:41. | :02:48. | |
a taste for coffee berries. The digestive system of the civet cat | :02:48. | :02:55. | |
could not buy just this. It would pass through the digestive system | :02:55. | :02:59. | |
and produce a highly desirable coffee. Retailers are sure their | :02:59. | :03:06. | |
collected from wild civet cats which forage freely in the jungle and | :03:06. | :03:11. | |
collected from wild civet cats which animal is not harmed. The reality we | :03:12. | :03:13. | |
found was this. Battery farmers animal is not harmed. The reality we | :03:13. | :03:19. | |
exporters to reach global demand. We saw a dozen farms like this in | :03:19. | :03:25. | |
northern Sumatra, the heart of the Kopi Luwak production. These animals | :03:25. | :03:30. | |
are solitary in the wild, they do not want to be this close together. | :03:30. | :03:39. | |
There is nowhere for them to climb high. —— climb or hide. This man was | :03:39. | :03:46. | |
the first to bring this copy to written, a decision he now regrets. | :03:46. | :03:55. | |

We wanted to know if their premium brand of coffee is really wild. | :04:14. | :04:38. | |
But these photos taken in December 2010 show a different image, civet | :04:38. | :04:57. | |

neither were we were. In their response to the BBC's investigation, | :05:11. | :05:13. | |
the company later admitted they response to the BBC's investigation, | :05:13. | :05:18. | |
have a civet cat enclosure on their estate but they save for scientific | :05:18. | :05:19. | |
trust, along every part of the supply chain. While many retailers | :05:19. | :06:10. | |

Thames Water is being challenged find out if computers could take | :06:37. | :06:49. | |
Thames Water is being challenged over its proposed price rise by | :06:49. | :06:52. | |
Thames Water is being challenged regulator Ofwat. The water company | :06:52. | :06:55. | |
wants to increase all household increasing costs and bad debts. | :06:55. | :07:02. | |
Warren Nettleford is here. In terms of price increase, or how much are | :07:03. | :07:08. | |
we talking? The average water bill That 8% equates to £29 a year on a | :07:08. | :07:19. | |
bill. Ofwat sets a limit on a price which water companies can charge for | :07:19. | :07:22. | |
current level was increased in which water companies can charge for | :07:22. | :07:29. | |
Thames Water are asking to increase prices in year early. What are the | :07:29. | :07:33. | |
increases in cost Thames Water are talking about? They have spent | :07:33. | :07:43. | |
increases in cost Thames Water are million on land for the new super | :07:43. | :07:43. | |
sewer. They have also got quite million on land for the new super | :07:43. | :07:49. | |
lot of debt, around £400 million and they are servicing that debt I | :07:49. | :07:53. | |
paying the interest on it. You have to bear in mind Thames Water are | :07:53. | :07:56. | |
private company. They made a profit last year and Ofwat and the consumer | :07:56. | :08:00. | |
Council Britain said they think last year and Ofwat and the consumer | :08:00. | :08:04. | |
is about time they started spending their own money rather than asking | :08:04. | :08:10. | |
customers for more. Apart from the proposed increase and a next planned | :08:10. | :08:17. | |
increase, there will be inflation increases and additional to that, | :08:17. | :08:22. | |
the attempts for the tunnel which have to be accommodated at some | :08:22. | :08:32. | |
decision? The decision is expected next month. Thames Water have put | :08:32. | :08:34. | |
out a brief statement saying they next month. Thames Water have put | :08:34. | :08:38. | |
out a brief statement saying they are waiting for the decision. We | :08:38. | :08:42. | |
will follow that story. Thank you. A murder investigation is underway | :08:42. | :08:54. | |

Valentine. A number of MPs have voiced their opposition to the | :09:48. | :09:55. | |
project. I think additional capacity coming down that route is a highly | :09:55. | :09:59. | |
positive thing. If you think about the congestion coming into London, | :09:59. | :10:03. | |
there are people on commuter rail lines were any additional capacity | :10:03. | :10:04. | |
is a help to London. As you may lines were any additional capacity | :10:04. | :10:11. | |
heard today, there are calls for the Bank of England to cool the housing | :10:11. | :10:16. | |
The body, RICS, says it should force the housing market in how much they | :10:16. | :10:27. | |
lend. When Lucy and their husband moved into their rented flat in | :10:27. | :10:34. | |
But then Lily came along. They want to buy a house but despite having a | :10:34. | :10:43. | |
incomes, their mortgage application was rejected. The housing prices | :10:43. | :10:50. | |
Honestly, I cannot see us staying in London. It is near impossible and if | :10:50. | :10:56. | |
so it would be in a home that is not suitable for a young child. We are | :10:56. | :11:00. | |

first—time buyers. It says house prices in London are expected to | :11:10. | :11:13. | |
bubble will burst. RICS wants the rise by 8% in London for the next | :11:13. | :11:44. | |
reducing boom and bust. House price growth in London is much stronger | :11:44. | :11:47. | |
than the rest of the country and more importantly, house prices are | :11:47. | :11:50. | |
expected to grow at a much faster rate than the rest of the country. | :11:50. | :11:55. | |
Similar controls were imposed in Canada, as a way of bringing prices | :11:55. | :12:02. | |
down. Sellers were willing to wait for the right buyer who was willing | :12:02. | :12:06. | |
to pay the asking price, so as a result, housing prices did not come | :12:06. | :12:11. | |
down. This expert says building homes is the only way to ensure | :12:11. | :12:18. | |
affordable housing in the capital. Mortgage ability is already scarce. | :12:18. | :12:24. | |
The fundamental problem is a lack of supply, of stop, houses for people | :12:24. | :12:32. | |
who want them. There may be an argument over the solution but most | :12:32. | :12:39. | |
question is, how to solve it and The Liberal Democrat leader Nick | :12:39. | :12:50. | |
disappointment that one of his MPs has decided to stand down at the | :12:50. | :12:55. | |
next election. Sarah Tether, the MP for Brent Central was first elected | :12:55. | :13:01. | |
in 2003. She was recently quoted as saying she disagreed with a whole | :13:01. | :13:05. | |
range of welfare and immigration policies, some of which he said | :13:05. | :13:11. | |

disillusioned for some time and depressed. Clearly she had been | :13:12. | :13:15. | |
was aware of that but of course depressed. Clearly she had been | :13:15. | :13:19. | |
disappointed. I do not agree with the reasons she has given. I wish | :13:19. | :13:24. | |
her luck for whatever she goes on to do after politics. You can hear | :13:24. | :13:29. | |

way to programme a computer to tell us what is in and what is out. | :14:16. | :14:32. | |
At Imperial College, specialists have developed a camera that mimics | :14:32. | :14:36. | |

It may look pretty on the outside but this Victorian bandstand in | :22:20. | :22:36. | |
Beckenham has Deveney seen better days. Back in the late 60s, it was | :22:36. | :22:41. | |
the venue for a festival which helped to launch the career of one | :22:41. | :22:47. | |
musicians. David Barrie organise the first double with a friend to | :22:47. | :22:56. | |
raise money for a local arts centre. —— organised the festival. The park | :22:56. | :23:04. | |
was full of people. There were people with flowers in their hair | :23:04. | :23:10. | |
and wearing kaftans and stuff like that. Sitting around on the grass. | :23:10. | :23:16. | |
I think there was a bit of a tinge of the smell of marijuana probably | :23:16. | :23:23. | |
in the air at the time. It was very relaxed in mood. It was a lovely | :23:23. | :23:25. | |
