:00:00. > :00:00.the evening on the BBC News Channel. And I'll be back with the late news
:00:00. > :00:00.at Ten. Now though on BBC One it's time for the news where you are. Bye
:00:00. > :00:24.for now. Business Good evening. Businesses in
:00:25. > :00:27.west London have reacted angrily to the mayor's proposals to turn
:00:28. > :00:30.Heathrow into a garden city. Boris Johnson says 90,000 and thousands of
:00:31. > :00:32.jobs would be created if the hub airport moves from Heathrow to the
:00:33. > :00:36.estuary. Here's our transport correspondent, Tom Edwards. This is
:00:37. > :00:40.the message some businesses now want the mayor to see, this company
:00:41. > :00:46.employs 70 people and they say Heathrow is vital to the area's
:00:47. > :00:51.economy. Talk of moving it is crazy. I think it is essential that
:00:52. > :00:56.Heathrow remains a hub airport, expands, rather than somewhere far
:00:57. > :01:00.afield that people aren't used to and would cost a lot, lot more
:01:01. > :01:05.money. Nothing remains the same forever. At one time there were huge
:01:06. > :01:09.elements of the population engaged in looking after horses and then
:01:10. > :01:14.somebody ups and invents the motor car. Now what has happened to them?
:01:15. > :01:17.They are doing something else now, aren't they? If the mayor gets his
:01:18. > :01:21.way, Heathrow will end up looking a bit like this. The terminal
:01:22. > :01:27.buildings could be used for retail and community use. Two campus
:01:28. > :01:31.universities is another option. City Hall believes a hub airport in the
:01:32. > :01:34.estuary would be a better base, with fewer people affected by noise and
:01:35. > :01:38.pollution. But between now and 2030, the
:01:39. > :01:42.population is London is likely to grow by another 2 million people, by
:01:43. > :01:45.25%. If you are sitting there as Mayor of London, you have to think
:01:46. > :01:50.hard about homes and jobs for them. We have a congested west London and
:01:51. > :01:55.a Heathrow Airport which isn't doing its job, which is constrained and
:01:56. > :01:58.environmentally damaging. Like other cities ` as it has been done
:01:59. > :02:03.elsewhere ` we should think of moving it out of the city limits.
:02:04. > :02:07.The western side of London is very much geared to Heathrow being where
:02:08. > :02:11.it is and the location of a lot of businesses demounty areas to the
:02:12. > :02:16.west of London are also related to the idea of having a major airport
:02:17. > :02:20.at the west of London, not in the estuary. At the moment, Heathrow and
:02:21. > :02:25.Gatwick are on the shortlist for expansion. An estuary airport may
:02:26. > :02:33.still be added. A final decision won't be made until 2015.
:02:34. > :02:39.Firefighters from across Berkshire have spent much of the day trying it
:02:40. > :02:47.save one of the county's most historic homes after a fire broke
:02:48. > :02:55.out. Flames sfreted roof of the kitchen at Hirst Lodge. The blaze is
:02:56. > :02:58.still continuing. A street in London's West End, known as Tin Pan
:02:59. > :03:01.Alley because of its musical roots, has been officially recognised with
:03:02. > :03:03.a blue plaque. Denmark Street was once home to Britain's music
:03:04. > :03:06.publishers and songwriters and became a favourite haunt of stars
:03:07. > :03:09.such as David Bowie and the Rolling Stones. Earlier, a host of industry
:03:10. > :03:13.figures joined the '60s pop star, Donovan, to unveil the plaque.
:03:14. > :03:15.Residents in Hounslow have complained that their new
:03:16. > :03:20.replacement street lights are so bright they're unable to get a
:03:21. > :03:23.proper night's sleep. The council's started using them as part of a
:03:24. > :03:26.multi`million pound scheme to improve the borough's streets. But
:03:27. > :03:33.some residents say it's "like living on a football pitch", as Cordelia
:03:34. > :03:39.Hemming reports. So I'm sealing up my Venitian blinds
:03:40. > :03:43.and I'm doing this with duct tape. For Christina, this is a daily
:03:44. > :03:46.routine, all down to the latest addition to the neighbourhood I'm
:03:47. > :03:53.just going to show you what the new street lamp looks like in our front
:03:54. > :03:57.room. How incredibly bright that light is.
:03:58. > :04:01.Three weeks ago, eight`metre tall LED lights were installed on
:04:02. > :04:05.Christina's street. She says they are affecting her every day life.
:04:06. > :04:09.The lied that comes through the side of the blinds is basically like a
:04:10. > :04:12.great big spotlight that's beam willing into your face as you are
:04:13. > :04:15.trying to relax with the familiar lane watch TV in the evening as
:04:16. > :04:18.well. The plan is to install these new street lights throughout the
:04:19. > :04:23.whole of the borough. The council says it has no obligation to consult
:04:24. > :04:28.residents, which has left many people feeling angry. As darkness
:04:29. > :04:33.falls, the black`out blinds go up, in an attempt to keep out the light.
:04:34. > :04:38.We have had to resort to that black cardboard which we bought which Kate
:04:39. > :04:43.has glued together to mask the window. Like World War Two. We had
:04:44. > :04:47.no idea this was going to happen and it's not a great way to live your
:04:48. > :04:53.life. The council were keen to highlight the benefits of the new
:04:54. > :04:59.lighting system. They are much more cost effective. They burn less
:05:00. > :05:02.electricity, they give a more directional light which means less
:05:03. > :05:06.light pollution. For those that aren't happy, the council is looking
:05:07. > :05:13.at a trial to dim the lights, you but not until the summer. In the
:05:14. > :05:17.nooinl, residents like Christina and Andy will have to resort to their
:05:18. > :05:27.own dimming methods. Now the weather with Elizabeth.
:05:28. > :05:30.Outbreaks of rain from the west tonight but it will be mild.
:05:31. > :05:33.Temperatures not dropping out of double figures.
:05:34. > :05:40.A wet start to the working week tomorrow. Showers throughout morning
:05:41. > :05:43.some heavy at times. That will continue throughout the
:05:44. > :05:46.day. For the rest of the working week, dry and bright but a touch
:05:47. > :05:50.cooler. That's it from us. There is more
:05:51. > :05:52.news, travel and weather on our website. We will be back later
:05:53. > :06:11.tonight. Join us them. Good evening, after a fairly mild
:06:12. > :06:17.weekend, a fresher week in store for the week ahead. Moreshine at times
:06:18. > :06:20.but not a huge amount tomorrow because that's shaping up to be a
:06:21. > :06:23.wet day for just about all of us. The rain developing through the
:06:24. > :06:27.night and it is still wet at the moment in southern counties. Watch
:06:28. > :06:32.how the rain becomes more extensive and heavier with a strengthening
:06:33. > :06:37.breeze. For northern England and Northern Ireland, a colder feel to
:06:38. > :06:44.the night. In northern Scotland, there will be temperatures in
:06:45. > :06:48.sheltered spots. A mild start for Monday. If you escape through the
:06:49. > :06:52.morning commute dry, you will one of the few. Heavy bursts around. So
:06:53. > :06:57.expect surface water and spray on faster routes if you are travelling
:06:58. > :07:04.in by car. The winds are a feature in the south. After a dry start for
:07:05. > :07:05.the early rises, for southern Scotland and
