:00:00. > 3:59:59end of the week? No. Had Russia heading our way and wet and windy
:00:00. > :00:00.again. That is was Mark Carney 's big idea when he
:00:00. > :00:11.arrived Bank of England last On the programme tonight: The
:00:12. > :00:14.rescues continue. With no end in sight to the crisis, we're out with
:00:15. > :00:26.the emergency services still helping flooded families. The house down the
:00:27. > :00:28.road is going under. I'm in Wraysbury tonight, whether
:00:29. > :00:30.rescue efforts are being coordinated.
:00:31. > :00:33.Determined to keep nature at bay ` the people who are fighting the
:00:34. > :00:37.floodwaters, desperate to protect their homes.
:00:38. > :00:45.By any means necessary ` people are doing what they can just to get
:00:46. > :00:53.around. That's gentleman we picked up this morning was too old to make
:00:54. > :00:55.it through the floodwater. He got soaking wet, the floodwater too deep
:00:56. > :00:58.for his boots. Plus the rest of the day's news
:00:59. > :00:59.including: The Londoner who posted videos glorifying the murder of
:01:00. > :01:16.Fusilier Lee Rigby. Good evening and welcome to the
:01:17. > :01:19.programme. It's going to get worse before it gets any better. That s
:01:20. > :01:22.the message for people living in the flooded areas along the Thames
:01:23. > :01:26.tonight. The Met Office has issued another yellow weather warning for
:01:27. > :01:30.heavy rain and strong winds at the end of the week. We could see nearly
:01:31. > :01:33.a month's worth of rain in the next few days. The Environment Agency is
:01:34. > :01:37.warning of more flooding and severe disruption as the Thames rises ` in
:01:38. > :01:42.places to its highest level in 0 years. And 14 severe flood warnings
:01:43. > :01:47.remain in place in Berkshire and Surrey. All of this having an a huge
:01:48. > :01:50.impact on communities already trying to cope with the floods. Let's get
:01:51. > :02:00.more from Alice Bhandhukravi, who's in Wraysbury in Berkshire for us
:02:01. > :02:04.tonight. That's right. I'm in Wraysbury
:02:05. > :02:07.primary School, which has been the headquarters of the relief
:02:08. > :02:11.operation. As you will see behind me, there are all sorts of people
:02:12. > :02:17.gathered here. We've got the Army, the Fire Brigade. There's an eating
:02:18. > :02:22.station because all the rescuers need to be fed and watered. They're
:02:23. > :02:25.coming here to get their instructions because it's all being
:02:26. > :02:30.organised from here. Wraysbury is not the only town which has been
:02:31. > :02:33.affected by these floods. In Surrey, the rescue operation is also
:02:34. > :02:38.under way and hundreds of people have been evacuated from their homes
:02:39. > :02:45.there. The emergency services have described their task as immense
:02:46. > :02:48.Nick Beake has spent the day there. The house down the road is going
:02:49. > :02:54.under. All the bungalows are going under. They are working flat out in
:02:55. > :03:01.these most surreal of scenes. Whole estates are deluged. This is mad.
:03:02. > :03:05.The water levels are still rising. It's not a good situation and it's
:03:06. > :03:09.only going to get worse in the next few days. I just think people need
:03:10. > :03:13.to be aware that they need to get food in. The potential for the
:03:14. > :03:17.national infrastructure, the electric ` if it goes out we've got
:03:18. > :03:22.big problems. It's up to my waist and getting deeper. Here in Egham,
:03:23. > :03:26.the team has been told a 72`year`old woman needs medical attention but
:03:27. > :03:32.there's a problem ` they can't get any further. Lock cutters are
:03:33. > :03:45.needed. Eventually, June Shanks is brought out. Anything like this
:03:46. > :03:56.before? No, no. Last time, 1947 she was evacuated. She lived down
:03:57. > :04:02.Chertsey Lane men. `` then. It's just deteriorated, really. He wasn't
:04:03. > :04:07.wrong. No more than half a mile away, another rescue, this time by
:04:08. > :04:11.the Army and the Fire Brigade joining forces. The booth family
:04:12. > :04:18.dash for the safety and warmth of a neighbour's house. It was rising and
:04:19. > :04:21.inch every hour. We didn't get any notice that the floods were going to
:04:22. > :04:25.come so all of our cars are underwater. We ran out of food and
:04:26. > :04:30.the drains were all blocks so we had to get out. They gave people the
:04:31. > :04:37.option. They knocked on people's doors and the Army said, " we're
:04:38. > :04:43.going now in a boat. Come if you are ready" . The people that are left
:04:44. > :04:47.are stranded. They chose to stay. This is one of the estate where the
:04:48. > :04:50.emergency services have been evacuating people from their homes
:04:51. > :04:55.today and, as you can see, it's completely cut off. The water
:04:56. > :05:00.continues to pour down, there's a howling wind and the concern is that
:05:01. > :05:07.the water level here seems to be rising. That means, for the
:05:08. > :05:15.emergency services, no respite. The scale is a men's and you can't
:05:16. > :05:21.imagine it unless you are here. `` the scale is immense. Among them,
:05:22. > :05:25.Mark Butler, a solitary figure here on this street. He arranged for his
:05:26. > :05:28.wife to be evacuated but has so far declined the offer of a rescue for
:05:29. > :05:35.himself. Do you think you have to leave? Eventually, yeah. But I'm
:05:36. > :05:39.staying here until my electric goes or until it starts coming through
:05:40. > :05:44.the front door or whatever. I've got a little electric heaters so I'm
:05:45. > :05:51.fine. I got an cooker so I've got food. Elsewhere, it's not just
:05:52. > :05:54.people being pulled out of danger. You can find cheerful faces here but
:05:55. > :06:00.nobody knows just how long this will go on. So in this corner of Surrey
:06:01. > :06:10.tonight, the rescues go on, the rain comes down and the misery continues.
:06:11. > :06:13.Well, obviously, lots of damage has been done and it's not surprising
:06:14. > :06:18.that people are concerned about their property. But some people have
:06:19. > :06:23.been going to extraordinary lengths to protect their homes. Gareth Furby
:06:24. > :06:27.has spent some of the day here in Wraysbury with some of those people.
:06:28. > :06:33.We're heading deep into the Wraysbury Flood. Travelling several
:06:34. > :06:40.hundred yards to a place where the houses have the flooding Thames as
:06:41. > :06:44.an unwelcome neighbour. Our house is the white coloured house on the
:06:45. > :06:50.left. But Dave isn't giving in or moving out. He's found a way to
:06:51. > :06:57.fight this flood. Here we are. Bone dry. Slippers ready and waiting to
:06:58. > :07:03.put on. The height of the water outside should mean the house is
:07:04. > :07:10.flooded but no. And inside is the reason. Carved a big hole in the
:07:11. > :07:18.floor. It took a couple of minutes. We sunk these submersible pumps into
:07:19. > :07:25.the water. He's got five pumps and a ruler. Outside, it is about three
:07:26. > :07:30.inches above this level here. And the backyard is where all this water
:07:31. > :07:35.pumps out. Fortunately, we have two cats so we have a cat flap, which is
:07:36. > :07:39.essential for getting the pipes out. This is not the only household
:07:40. > :07:48.fighting the flood. On another road, as the weather worsened, we found a
:07:49. > :07:55.Gray, who has seven pumps working to clear his house. They're all two
:07:56. > :07:59.inch pumps. It has taken the water level down at least a foot, if not
:08:00. > :08:05.more, than the level here. Are you going to survive this? None of us
:08:06. > :08:08.know that but we're doing our best. But now the weather has started to
:08:09. > :08:14.deteriorate once again, will they cope? Just look at the water flowing
:08:15. > :08:22.directly onto these streets from the River Thames. While we were filming,
:08:23. > :08:26.fire crews arrived with a warning about water levels. Whilst the
:08:27. > :08:32.levels appear to be dropping at the moment, they may rise again. Whether
:08:33. > :08:36.significantly or not, we don't know. But they're not giving up and as
:08:37. > :08:43.long as the power holed out, they stand a fair chance. The weather,
:08:44. > :08:50.though, may not be kind. We've seen lots of stoicism by
:08:51. > :08:54.people facing this crisis in the flood but there is some evidence
:08:55. > :08:57.that some people are beginning to take out their frustrations on
:08:58. > :09:05.figures of authority. Here's what one volunteer in that ship told us
:09:06. > :09:08.last night. `` in Datchet. It's quite bad at the moment because
:09:09. > :09:13.we're not getting any help. My house is flooded. I've been abused for not
:09:14. > :09:18.letting cars go through here. The police need to help us. We can't do
:09:19. > :09:25.anything without the police helping us. I've been abused a few times and
:09:26. > :09:31.I got punched, as well. The Environment Agency has also been
:09:32. > :09:34.taking some flak. Here in Wraysbury on Monday, they decided to pull some
:09:35. > :09:41.of their team because they were verbally abused. There was a huge
:09:42. > :09:47.amount of anxiety and misery when your property is flooding. Yes,
:09:48. > :09:51.there was tension. We had two people in their assessing what we could do
:09:52. > :09:55.and whether we could help. Sometimes it's just better to let the tension
:09:56. > :10:00.drop so we withdrew those people on Monday evening but we've been back
:10:01. > :10:04.in there since yesterday morning. We can speak to some of the people who
:10:05. > :10:08.are actually working here on the ground, on the front line, as it
:10:09. > :10:12.were. Then, you are volunteer paramedic but you've made your job
:10:13. > :10:19.this week to court to make the relief effort. What have you been up
:10:20. > :10:23.to? Basically, on Monday morning I knew there was some local activity
:10:24. > :10:27.and some evacuations happening. I assume the emergency services would
:10:28. > :10:31.be here. I just popped down because I'm a resident of Wraysbury,
:10:32. > :10:35.expecting that to have happened but there was nobody here. Your a
:10:36. > :10:38.paramedic say you know how to deal with medical emergencies. At you
:10:39. > :10:45.found people in need of medical help? I've taken a role which is
:10:46. > :10:49.less medical and more to do with the coordination side from the primary
:10:50. > :10:53.school here. When I first got here expecting there to be a lot of
:10:54. > :10:58.people able to get out there, there were just volunteers. Now we're
:10:59. > :11:02.surrounded by people in uniform ` the ambulance, police, the army Do
:11:03. > :11:07.you think you've got enough support now? Certainly have now. If you were
:11:08. > :11:13.here on Monday, it was about half a dozen people in this room, all
:11:14. > :11:21.residents of Wraysbury. Thank you. We can cross now to Councillor Colin
:11:22. > :11:25.Rayner. Tell us about what work you've been doing. What kind of
:11:26. > :11:30.emergencies are you dealing with? We were told at 2:30pm on Sunday that
:11:31. > :11:33.we would be facing catastrophic floods in our village and volunteers
:11:34. > :11:37.have been working tirelessly since then, rescuing people from their
:11:38. > :11:43.houses, delivering sandbags, making sure people have food, water and
:11:44. > :11:47.drink. We have over 1500 houses in this village and had over 500
:11:48. > :11:52.volunteers delivering sandbags and food. By Tuesday morning, the water
:11:53. > :11:57.had risen up to eight feet in some houses and then we required the army
:11:58. > :12:02.to help us. What more help do you need? We're OK now. We have the
:12:03. > :12:06.army, the Environment Agency, who have been a great help. We have the
:12:07. > :12:10.police, the Fire Brigade, the whole world is here to help us. We are so
:12:11. > :12:15.pleased. Thank you for talking to us. As we've seen, travelling around
:12:16. > :12:19.flood hit areas can be a real challenge in itself, let alone
:12:20. > :12:24.getting to work. Tarah Welsh reports now on how people have been getting
:12:25. > :12:28.around. ` that is the feeling for many at
:12:29. > :12:36.Paddington tonight who are for trains to Reading. `` tread ` that
:12:37. > :12:43.is the feeling. Nobody is informing us what's happening. We got on the
:12:44. > :12:47.second station back on the way to Slough, people were fighting to get
:12:48. > :12:54.on and couldn't get into the train. And this is why ` a flooded signal
:12:55. > :12:58.cabinet at Maidenhead. In Datchet, this was the morning rush`hour. No
:12:59. > :13:05.trains. Only the wildlife could get around quickly. Are you going to
:13:06. > :13:11.school? No. Why not? We can't get there. I'm going to Chertsey, which
:13:12. > :13:15.normally takes about 20 minutes but with the traffic, it's taking two
:13:16. > :13:20.hours. Many workers have decided to stay at home. I did try to get in
:13:21. > :13:24.yesterday and the day before and it has been taking over two hours and
:13:25. > :13:29.even getting back into Wraysbury on the way back has been so difficult.
:13:30. > :13:33.But there is a mode of transport making it easier for some. Usually,
:13:34. > :13:42.tourists pay for this but today the service is free. The water has to be
:13:43. > :13:47.about four feet deep before she will actually float. Malcolm had to get
:13:48. > :13:52.to the health centre this morning but would have had to get through
:13:53. > :13:57.this. I used to fly aircraft but I have never been on one of these
:13:58. > :14:02.before. This man needed to catch a lift a few feet away. Why can't you
:14:03. > :14:06.walk? It's too deep. But those that have to go further need one of
:14:07. > :14:12.these. When the water comes to an end, the traffic begins. A lot of
:14:13. > :14:15.road closures around here. I think a lot of people are scared to go out
:14:16. > :14:19.because they don't know if they re going to get caught in the sudden
:14:20. > :14:23.depths of the water. It's not just what's under the water that's
:14:24. > :14:32.bothering people. It's not knowing when it will go or what is next to
:14:33. > :14:37.come. It's now dark outside. It's very
:14:38. > :14:39.cold and very wet here so the relief effort is likely to continue
:14:40. > :14:45.throughout the night here in Wraysbury. Everyone at the primary
:14:46. > :14:49.school is milling around waiting for their instructions. I've seen
:14:50. > :14:54.chickens go past in co`ops with the RSPCA. We have the Royal Berkshire
:14:55. > :14:58.Fire service waiting for their next orders and they've said they'll be
:14:59. > :15:01.here for as long as it takes. Good luck to everyone involved.
:15:02. > :15:05.Thank you, Alice. And coming up later in the
:15:06. > :15:06.programme: The animal victims of the floods ` we're with the rescuers
:15:07. > :15:21.taking pets and livestock to safety. A 23`year`old man has pleaded guilty
:15:22. > :15:23.to inciting murder and posting videos on YouTube about the killing
:15:24. > :15:29.of the soldier Lee Rigby. Royal Barnes, who is from Hackney,
:15:30. > :15:34.recorded and uploaded three videos shortly after the murder in
:15:35. > :15:39.Woolwich. Emma North has been court this morning and has the details.
:15:40. > :15:43.What was said? Let's go back to the 22nd of May
:15:44. > :15:48.last year, Lee Rigby was killed by Michael Adebolajo and Michael
:15:49. > :15:51.Adebowale. And within 48 hours, Royal Barnes but three videos on
:15:52. > :16:04.YouTube in which he glorified these killings. In the first, he said ..
:16:05. > :16:11.In another video, we have a picture, he is driving past the scene of the
:16:12. > :16:15.killing, laughing and mocking the floral tributes to the fallen
:16:16. > :16:20.soldier. And he created a Facebook page in which he invited people to
:16:21. > :16:25.kill British soldiers on Muslim soil, he offered money and a car to
:16:26. > :16:30.anybody who would do that. In court today, he glared out from the dog as
:16:31. > :16:36.he pleaded guilty to three counts of distributing terrorism material and
:16:37. > :16:43.one count of inciting. Was he acting alone? He was a recent
:16:44. > :16:50.convert to Islam but was mixing in dangerous circles. This was 201
:16:51. > :16:57.Christmas Eve at a rally, he is circled. To the right, Michael
:16:58. > :17:04.Adebowale, who was a member of the radical Muslim group. And he was a
:17:05. > :17:08.member of Muslim patrols. And his wife, Rebecca Dawson, who pleaded
:17:09. > :17:13.guilty to three terrorist charges, she helped to film and upload videos
:17:14. > :17:19.on YouTube. Thank you. The former X Factor judge
:17:20. > :17:24.and singer Tulisa has pleaded not guilty to assaulting a man at the
:17:25. > :17:27.V`Festival in Chelmsford last year. The 25`year`old appeared in court in
:17:28. > :17:29.Chelmsford to face an assault charge. Her assistant, Gareth Bale,
:17:30. > :17:32.is accused of threatening behaviour, which he also denies.
:17:33. > :17:35.Former England rugby star Jonny Wilkinson was teaching rugby players
:17:36. > :17:45.at Grasshoppers Rugby Club in West London new skills today. It was for
:17:46. > :17:48.the launch of a new volunteer programme, ahead of next year's
:17:49. > :17:50.World Cup in England. The scheme will see young volunteers working
:17:51. > :17:57.throughout the tournament, some in close contact with the players.
:17:58. > :18:02.The guys that get involved in it get a kind of emotional and up close
:18:03. > :18:10.experience which nobody else yet. When you are in the changing room
:18:11. > :18:13.before and after the Games, seeing players in World Cups kicking balls
:18:14. > :18:19.around, they have been helping me with that. You do an accreditation

:18:31. > :18:32.Our entertainment correspondent Brenda Emmanus, has been to meet

:18:47. > :18:50.Japanese martial arts performance and visuals. Katsumi Sakakura is
:18:51. > :18:57.also the front man and founder of a world`famous dance team. Katsumi
:18:58. > :19:00.will be performing in London as part of an ongoing celebration and
:19:01. > :19:06.promotion of Japanese culture in the city. He plans to move to London, a
:19:07. > :19:15.place he finds artistically inspiring and welcoming. I am
:19:16. > :19:22.travelling all over the world but this is the most exciting city
:19:23. > :19:29.artistically and culturally. I am feeling that London is an influence
:19:30. > :19:34.for international culture, especially Japanese culture. Japan
:19:35. > :19:40.'s cultural relations with the city goes back over 400 years. In 16 1, a
:19:41. > :19:43.ship longing to be East India company was sent East with the
:19:44. > :19:48.intention of getting to Japan, he did not know it would arrive but it
:19:49. > :19:55.did in 1613. When the ship came back from Japan, it had on board worker,
:19:56. > :20:00.a new idea, it was the first ever art auction in English history.
:20:01. > :20:05.Next week, an exhibition of Japanese design will open while a major
:20:06. > :20:09.festival of Japanese art is planned in the autumn. Katsumi will

:20:17. > :20:21.his part. Back to the problems caused by the
:20:22. > :20:29.weather, and there are major issues at Euston tonight. What is going on?
:20:30. > :20:34.Big problems on the West Coast mainline. The Virgin Trains website
:20:35. > :20:40.says, do not travel. Crewe station, the roof has been loan off, electric
:20:41. > :20:47.wires down, a lot of debris. Pictures of people sitting in dark
:20:48. > :20:52.trains. Virgin Trains have said also this is out of London Euston
:20:53. > :20:57.suspended until further notice because of adverse weather. Some
:20:58. > :20:59.commuter trains are running from Euston to Birmingham but it does
:21:00. > :21:04.mean a lot of travellers and Northern for all fans in the capital
:21:05. > :21:11.will struggle to get home tonight `` darts funds.
:21:12. > :21:17.When could the problems be fixed? No idea, an ongoing situation, maybe
:21:18. > :21:18.tomorrow morning. Thank you, our transport
:21:19. > :21:25.correspondent with the latest. And returning to the floods. They
:21:26. > :21:32.are not just having an impact on residents and businesses. Hundreds
:21:33. > :21:35.of pets and livestock are having to being rescued too, as Sarah Harris
:21:36. > :21:38.reports. Responding to an emergency call in

:21:51. > :21:57.tricky but they've went out some animals who will stay at a rescue

:22:02. > :22:05.and animal rescues, and people tend to come with animals and they want
:22:06. > :22:09.our help to move stuff about. Because the mechanics of getting to
:22:10. > :22:15.the end of the road, if you are wading through water, is a problem.
:22:16. > :22:20.The RSPCA have rescued more than 200 animals since the floods began
