And that is all from us. There is more throughout the evening on the

:00:00.:00:00.

BBC News channel. Now we john the BBCs news teams where you are.

:00:00.:00:00.

The Government's flagship University Technical College is to close due to

:00:07.:00:09.

We are pioneers, and sometiles when you are a pioneer those are not the

:00:10.:00:22.

people who are successful. So, what will the closure mdan

advisor after a series And, could video arcades be making a

:00:59.:01:01.

comeback? Good evening,

:01:02.:01:10.

and welcome to the programmd. The first of the Government's

:01:11.:01:12.

flagship University Technical Collegds

:01:13.:01:16.

in London is closing its doors, Hackney University Technical College

:01:17.:01:19.

was one of over a dozen set up in the country

:01:20.:01:25.

as a pioneering training centre for But due to a lack of applic`nts the

:01:26.:01:27.

governors have decided to close it. In a moment, we will look at what

:01:28.:01:43.

implications it will have on local people's chances of benefithng from

:01:44.:01:45.

the industry. This is what the government would

:01:46.:01:54.

like the future of education to look like, this college was opendd in

:01:55.:01:59.

Hertfordshire by Michael Gove last week. This week, the collegd in

:02:00.:02:03.

Hackney made the decision to close after it only managed to attract 29

:02:04.:02:08.

students out of a target of 75 for year ten. It was a recruitmdnt drive

:02:09.:02:13.

that the principal concedes was always going to be difficult. Many

:02:14.:02:19.

students, families and studdnts choose to stay put at the end of

:02:20.:02:23.

year nine and continue their education in good and outst`nding

:02:24.:02:28.

schools, and not to make a change. It is an unusual age at which to

:02:29.:02:34.

change schools. Do you mean that the system is flawed, it was always

:02:35.:02:38.

going to be difficult to get those students to come here? I am not

:02:39.:02:42.

saying the system is flawed, but it is challenging to encourage young

:02:43.:02:47.

people to make a choice that is different. But those who have made

:02:48.:02:52.

the choice are positive. Sttdents like Francisco, who will now have to

:02:53.:02:56.

go out where to do his A`levels This is the control centre. Despite

:02:57.:03:02.

the fact that his course is closing, he has every faith in the concept. I

:03:03.:03:07.

believe that this is the future of education, they give us the soft

:03:08.:03:12.

skills and communication skhlls we need, to learn how to network, which

:03:13.:03:21.

I will not get at a new school. Down the road, these are the cre`tives

:03:22.:03:25.

who helped support the colldge. Dealings that they forged whth

:03:26.:03:28.

people like us are quite progressive. They allow the kids to

:03:29.:03:36.

develop skills in the real world that normally they would not do in

:03:37.:03:42.

the stability of a classrool. For some, specialising in technology at

:03:43.:03:48.

14 is too late. We need to be looking much further down the chain,

:03:49.:03:53.

all the way back to primary school, getting children thinking about what

:03:54.:03:58.

they want to do. Francisco hs confident he is a coder in the

:03:59.:04:03.

making, but how many others will be able to follow him?

:04:04.:04:08.

Is that really going to havd any implication for the booling

:04:09.:04:12.

We will not know for five or ten years, because that is when those

:04:13.:04:22.

young people could enter thd workforce properly. There are many

:04:23.:04:28.

technology jobs to be had in London. But there is a skills short`ge, one

:04:29.:04:34.

of the problems is that somd people think that the technology jobs have

:04:35.:04:38.

been filled from people outside London, because the governmdnt has

:04:39.:04:41.

made it easier to get a Vis` if you are in the industry. What they also

:04:42.:04:48.

need to do is convince young people that this is an exciting industry,

:04:49.:04:52.

they can start their own colpanies. It seems that that is not h`ppening.

:04:53.:05:00.

One of the criticisms is th`t it is a short`term scheme that make the

:05:01.:05:04.

politicians look good, but hn the long`term, it has not had an effect

:05:05.:05:07.

on Londoners. Stay with us this evening,

:05:08.:05:14.

as there's lots more to comd Criticism

:05:15.:05:16.

of a plan to spend public c`sh to rehouse the royal barge which led

:05:17.:05:19.

the Thames Diamond Jubilee Pageant. A boy who was left almost completely

:05:20.:05:29.

blind for the first five ye`rs of his life has received

:05:30.:05:32.

an undisclosed sum of money The parents of Billy Wells from

:05:33.:05:35.

High Wycombe raised concerns with their doctor and health vishtor more

:05:36.:05:41.

than 70 times, Buckinghamshire NHS Hospital Trust

:05:42.:05:44.

has now admitted liability. Billy Wells spent his first five

:05:45.:06:01.

years almost entirely unabld to see. He would drop his bottle but could

:06:02.:06:05.

not pick it up again, he wotld watch TV one centimetre from the screen.

:06:06.:06:11.

We made our concerns to the GP, they kept reassuring us he was fhne, it

:06:12.:06:15.

was just that he wanted to hnteract with the TV. Why he would not pick

:06:16.:06:21.

up his bottle, he was lazy, he wanted to be waited on. The family

:06:22.:06:25.

pestered, they visited health professionals more than 70 times,

:06:26.:06:29.

there were promised he would be sent for tests, but nothing happdned

:06:30.:06:34.

Years later, the referral form for sound at the bottom of the health

:06:35.:06:39.

visitor's bag. A trip to Disneyland Paris changed everything. Wd took

:06:40.:06:45.

photographs, we had them developed, and he was not looking at one shot.

:06:46.:06:52.

My wife said, he is blind. @ visit to the optician, his blindndss was

:06:53.:06:56.

confirmed. They got to the stage where he could see something, he

:06:57.:07:01.

said, I can see. I said, whx did you not tell me I could not see? He

:07:02.:07:06.

said, I did not know they wdre supposed to work. The NHS Trust

:07:07.:07:11.

admitted they failed to spot his blindness and several other

:07:12.:07:12.

conditions. Despite all of this, Ely is now top

:07:13.:07:29.

of his class at school. The family is now looking forward. Without my

:07:30.:07:34.

dad helping me every step of the way, I would still not be able to

:07:35.:07:40.

see today. I would still be walking into doorframes. Still needhng help

:07:41.:07:49.

with every single little thhng. I cannot thank my dad enough.

:07:50.:07:56.

A 22`year`old man has been `rrested on suspicion of terrorism at

:07:57.:07:58.

Scotland Yard say the suspect, who was travelling to Istanbul,

:07:59.:08:01.

was held on Wednesday afternoon by officers from Bedfordshire Police.

:08:02.:08:05.

The man is being held in South London on suspicion

:08:06.:08:07.

of being involved in the prdparation of acts to commit terrorism.

:08:08.:08:13.

An inquiry into the economic case for the

:08:14.:08:15.

High Speed rail link is to be held by a House of Lords committde.

:08:16.:08:18.

It says it wants to find out who the winners and losers will be from

:08:19.:08:22.

the ?50 billion project, and if London will gain more from HS2 than

:08:23.:08:26.

Now, has this been the week that the Mayor's dream

:08:27.:08:33.

of building an airport in the Thames Estuary has finally been sunk?

:08:34.:08:36.

Four independent reports for the Airports Commission have

:08:37.:08:38.

raised serious questions ovdr its cost, its environmental impact

:08:39.:08:42.

and implications for local transport links.

:08:43.:08:45.

Despite that, City Hall rem`ins optimistic, as we're about to hear.

:08:46.:08:57.

The report is published by the Airports Commission, they h`ve been

:08:58.:09:04.

strong and critical and raised concerns, presumably you will ignore

:09:05.:09:08.

that and concentrate on a h`ndful of positives? I am going to trx to

:09:09.:09:14.

explain that what has been going on is that last December the commission

:09:15.:09:19.

organised that the estuary proposal had the greatest scale of bdnefits

:09:20.:09:24.

of any of the other proposals put to it, but it wanted to do somd studies

:09:25.:09:29.

to see if there were any show stoppers that would prevent it from

:09:30.:09:35.

going ahead, so it commissioned work in four areas. We have seen that

:09:36.:09:39.

evidence put up for comment, this is not their final view. Natur`lly

:09:40.:09:44.

because they are looking for problems to see if they can get over

:09:45.:09:49.

them, they read in a fairly depressing way, but what thd reports

:09:50.:09:53.

show is that there are no bhg problems. What it actually says is

:09:54.:10:02.

that they have examined it, the problems can all be overcomd, but

:10:03.:10:05.

when you look at them all together, they appear to present a substantial

:10:06.:10:08.

risk in the order of billions of pounds to appropriately man`ge. They

:10:09.:10:14.

are all surmountable, but together, it is a no`go. The important thing

:10:15.:10:21.

is that they are all surmountable. In any large project such as this,

:10:22.:10:27.

there is going to be risk, when you compare this to what has bedn

:10:28.:10:30.

proposed at Heathrow. At He`throw, you have to take into account the

:10:31.:10:35.

huge risk to the education of children, the health of people,

:10:36.:10:39.

increased risk of strokes, heart attacks and so on that, of having a

:10:40.:10:46.

new airport at Heathrow. Thd risk, of course there is risk, but they

:10:47.:10:51.

can be managed. The Airports Commission has not said any of these

:10:52.:10:54.

things, these are the reports of consultants. Which are taken into

:10:55.:11:01.

consideration. Our view is they have no choice morally and legally, and

:11:02.:11:07.

in terms of their responsibhlity... You ignore the fact that is more

:11:08.:11:13.

risk than opportunity, more cost and risk to the taxpayer,

:11:14.:11:50.

Commission, that this option should continue. People will be surprised

:11:51.:11:52.

at your optimism, but we have to hear the result in a few months

:11:53.:12:01.

It's among London's busiest bridges, and a major transport link hn

:12:02.:12:03.

So, no surprises, you can expect major disruption around Putney

:12:04.:12:06.

Bridge, which will close to traffic for three months from Mondax

:12:07.:12:15.

Yes, Putney Bridge is falling down, falling down. Rather, it is not

:12:16.:12:24.

because the council will spdnd 1.5 million bringing it back up to

:12:25.:12:29.

scratch. It has decided to do this in one go, because it says that is

:12:30.:12:32.

what the local communities want There will be consequences, with

:12:33.:12:37.

upstream and downstream. Putney Bridge, this morning. Soon,

:12:38.:12:43.

it will look rather different. The clues are already on the brhdge

:12:44.:12:48.

When the barriers go up, it will close. Cars, buses and lorrhes will

:12:49.:12:54.

not be able to cross. Many bus routes will have to stop on one side

:12:55.:13:01.

and start again on the other. Today, passengers were bracing thelselves

:13:02.:13:07.

for the impact. Shut the brhdge and then walk. Probably around 25

:13:08.:13:14.

minutes. It will be a huge struggle for everybody. I am travellhng to

:13:15.:13:19.

High Street Kensington, I al going to take the bicycle. It is ` big

:13:20.:13:23.

thing, it has never happened before. The question for thd High

:13:24.:13:28.

Street, will it lose shoppers? It will affect the traffic and some

:13:29.:13:34.

people from Fulham coming over, because you do get customers from

:13:35.:13:39.

Fulham. We have done everything for local businesses, we have asked how

:13:40.:13:43.

they would like it done, thdy have said they would like it as puickly

:13:44.:13:48.

as possible. For travellers who need to get across, we have workdd very

:13:49.:13:51.

closely with Transport for London to make sure that if you are travelling

:13:52.:13:55.

by bus, there is no extra cost involved. We hope we have done

:13:56.:14:01.

everything we can. There will be inconvenience some, that is

:14:02.:14:04.

unavoidable, I am afraid. Does that mean traffic will cause jams at the

:14:05.:14:11.

two nearest bridges, Hammersmith and Wandsworth? It is difficult to

:14:12.:14:16.

predict, but it is going to be busy, because one major Bridge will be

:14:17.:14:21.

closed. We are entering the summer, so it will be a bit quieter, which

:14:22.:14:26.

will help. We urge drivers to think about alternatives, to spre`d the

:14:27.:14:29.

demand across the bridges. The reason for the work can be seen on

:14:30.:14:34.

the road surface. The closure starts at 5am on Monday. It will l`st until

:14:35.:14:42.

October. Perhaps the best advice is wait and

:14:43.:14:48.

see what happens on Monday `nd Tuesday, and if things are bad, just

:14:49.:14:53.

your route. Maybe even conshder an alternative form of transport.

:14:54.:14:57.

Cyclists will still be able to use this bridge provided they gdt off

:14:58.:14:59.

and walk. A row's broken out over plans to

:15:00.:15:14.

spend a million pounds of taxpayer's money on houshng

:15:15.:15:16.

the Royal barge, Gloriana. It led the Diamond Jubilee Pageant

:15:17.:15:19.

along the Thames and was buhlt especially for the occasion.

:15:20.:15:21.

But now there's criticism over Richmond Council's plans regarding

:15:22.:15:24.

the cost and location for the boat. Helen Drew reports.

:15:25.:15:30.

With roars including Sir Stdve Redgrave and Matthew Pinsent the

:15:31.:15:35.

Gloriana was a focal point of the river pageant. But, now it needs a

:15:36.:15:39.

home, and that could be in the borough of Richmond. The man who

:15:40.:15:43.

built the Gloriana is from the area, and the local council has jtst voted

:15:44.:15:48.

to potentially contribute up to ?1 million to the cost of building a

:15:49.:15:53.

boat house here It encouragds more people to locate here, that is going

:15:54.:15:57.

to have a lot of benefit for the local economy, so I think the

:15:58.:16:01.

pleasure it will give peopld, and that people will be able to see this

:16:02.:16:05.

wonderful crafts man ship. Not even in the area is in favour of this

:16:06.:16:09.

When we have seen in this borough in the most deprived ward in the

:16:10.:16:13.

borough, a library close in recent years as part of austerity, in a

:16:14.:16:19.

time of austerity, is it a good use of taxpayers' money. Concerns don't

:16:20.:16:25.

stop there. The proposed site is Orleans Gardens. It is a picturesque

:16:26.:16:32.

location, directly across the water from Ham House. Many locals are

:16:33.:16:35.

saying the plans could ruin the area. A petition against thd plans

:16:36.:16:40.

already has 1200 signatures. It will not remain the same, you ard going

:16:41.:16:44.

to change that space forever. Nor me, you are losing something you

:16:45.:16:50.

can't really replace. It wotld be devastating to the ecology `nd the

:16:51.:16:54.

tree, the wildlife. Richmond council is keen to stress nothing is

:16:55.:16:59.

definite and it is holding ` public consultation to the end of @ugust.

:17:00.:17:09.

Still to come. They were big in the '80s but could video arcades be

:17:10.:17:12.

making a come back? Helen Drew reports.

:17:13.:17:20.

A real mix of sport for us this evening, including motor racing and

:17:21.:17:22.

a terrific story about canoding Sara is here to tell all.

:17:23.:17:26.

Thanks Asad. Yes, there is lore to this weekend than the World Cup

:17:27.:17:29.

final. We start with Anne Dhckins from Surrey, who was left ddvastated

:17:30.:17:32.

after her passion for mount`in bike racing was ended with a debhlitating

:17:33.:17:35.

back injury. But the mum of two volunteered at the London Olympics,

:17:36.:17:38.

and a chance meeting saw her take up canoeing, and this weekend she's

:17:39.:17:41.

defending her European titld. Jenna Hawkey has been to meet her.

:17:42.:17:51.

Anne was an endurance mount`in biker focussing on 24 hours race being a

:17:52.:17:58.

spinal injury left her with very little feeling or strength hn her

:17:59.:18:02.

right leg It was soul`destroying. It is not just about a competition it

:18:03.:18:06.

is a way of life. All my frhends, my social life was about cycling, and

:18:07.:18:10.

suddenly, din't have that any more. One year later a chance encounter

:18:11.:18:16.

with a fellow Games Maker g`ve the 47`year`old the chance to try

:18:17.:18:20.

something different. Becausd we were both wearing Games Maker unhforms we

:18:21.:18:26.

sat down and starting chatthng. He was talk about how he was a canoe

:18:27.:18:34.

coach an they were getting ` performance centre, I said xou can

:18:35.:18:38.

have me if you wanted. He ptt his coffee down and he grilled le for

:18:39.:18:42.

about half an hour on my injury weak leg, and I remember sitting in

:18:43.:18:46.

the velodrome going "This is odd. I think I have been invited the try

:18:47.:18:52.

out for paracanoe." But the trials were seven weeks away I said this is

:18:53.:18:56.

going to sound weird but I can't canoe but I really want to be on the

:18:57.:19:01.

GB squad in seven week, can you help me? Nand is exactly what thdy did.

:19:02.:19:07.

And within a year, Dickens was the world silver medallist in the 2 0

:19:08.:19:13.

metre sprint. The The Europdan Championships was his fifth race

:19:14.:19:15.

ever, so it didn't really m`tter how I did, but to go this year, into a

:19:16.:19:19.

European Championships being European champion is a lot of

:19:20.:19:23.

pressure there. The European Championships are currently under

:19:24.:19:27.

way in Germany, Dickens is safely through to tomorrow's final, yet

:19:28.:19:31.

another step in her journey from Games Maker to Paralympic hopeful.

:19:32.:19:44.

Hawkey has been to meet her. Good luck to Anne this weekdnd.

:19:45.:19:46.

Now after passing a medical yesterday, Arsenal have confirmed

:19:47.:19:49.

the signing of Barcelona striker Alexis Sanchez. The Gunners are

:19:50.:19:51.

thought to have paid around ?35 million for

:19:52.:19:54.

Good luck to Anne this weekdnd. Now after passing a medical

:19:55.:19:57.

yesterday, Arsenal have confirmed Now fencing is a sport which

:19:58.:20:09.

Great Britain hasn't won an Olympic medal in for almost half a century.

:20:10.:20:12.

But now we have our first ever European Chalpion `

:20:13.:20:14.

and he's from Barnet. 23 year`old James Davis won gold in

:20:15.:20:18.

Strasbourg last month, and when the World Championships begin in Russia

:20:19.:20:21.

next week hopes are high he'll make it to the top of the podium again.

:20:22.:20:23.

Chris Slegg has more. This was the moment James D`vis

:20:24.:20:37.

became Great Britain's first fencing European champion. In Strasbourg

:20:38.:20:41.

last month. Today, in north London he was getting himself in pdrfect

:20:42.:20:46.

shape for next week's World Championships. I am getting things

:20:47.:20:51.

done. I need to get it done before believe. Get the last minutd

:20:52.:20:55.

treatment in. Today's training session was rare

:20:56.:20:59.

visit to the capital, in November James left his home in Barndt to

:21:00.:21:03.

live in San Francisco where he is training with the top US fencers I

:21:04.:21:07.

love it out there, training is amazing, the guys are world class,

:21:08.:21:12.

they are such a big set up, so many kids do it. What has been the

:21:13.:21:16.

hardest thing to adapt to? Some of the expressions? The expressions

:21:17.:21:20.

definitely. I am refusing to say soccer, they are not getting that

:21:21.:21:24.

one out of me, they all laugh when I say I am going to the loo. Xou are

:21:25.:21:28.

Great Britain's first ever Duropean fencing champion. When you were on

:21:29.:21:31.

the podium, receiving that ledal, how did that feel? For me, that is

:21:32.:21:36.

the most nerve`wracking part of it all. I mean I loved it. I w`s just

:21:37.:21:41.

in the zone. You have been puite brave to say a gold medal at Rio is

:21:42.:21:44.

what you are aiming for. Wh`t will be the most important thing over the

:21:45.:21:49.

next two years? If we were to select tomorrow, I would get selected. Two

:21:50.:21:54.

years anything could have. Xou can have a dreadful season or a career

:21:55.:21:59.

ending injury. If I can stax that the level, keep pushing mysdlf,

:22:00.:22:04.

fingers crossed we will be `ble to talk again, as Olympic champion that

:22:05.:22:08.

would be the lovely part of my dream It is look ever more real if James

:22:09.:22:12.

Davis can become World Champion in Russia.

:22:13.:22:17.

Good luck to James, and to `ll the Germans and Argentineans we

:22:18.:22:21.

have living here in London for the World Cup Final on Sunday.

:22:22.:22:25.

That's all the sport, back to you, Asad.

:22:26.:22:27.

If you're around my age, you'll remember video arcadds being

:22:28.:22:29.

all the rage in the 80's with games like Pac`Man

:22:30.:22:35.

and Donkey Kong wowing us all. But when games consoles arrhved

:22:36.:22:37.

everything changed, with people preferring to play at home.

:22:38.:22:39.

But now, as Wendy Hurrell has been fhnding

:22:40.:22:47.

out, a man in West London h`s decided to bring the arcade back.

:22:48.:22:53.

Outside the trains rumble p`st the industrial estate in Acton.

:22:54.:23:00.

Inside, bleeps and booms echo from another era. It really is the last

:23:01.:23:04.

of its kind. Probably the fhrst and last arcade of the 21st centuriment

:23:05.:23:08.

over here in the UK any way. It is called the heart of gaming or the

:23:09.:23:16.

Hog to regular, a room filldd with carefully repaired machines taken

:23:17.:23:19.

from arcades long since closed down Most of the kids started galing

:23:20.:23:22.

after the arcades were pretty much gone. So to them, this is khnd of a

:23:23.:23:27.

new experience. But to others, it goes a bit deeper. Nostalgi` is

:23:28.:23:31.

something that generally hits you. It is not something you are really

:23:32.:23:35.

physically immerse yourself in, but here, you know, for people who

:23:36.:23:39.

haven't seen games in maybe over 20 years they can walk in and see them

:23:40.:23:43.

again. Not only that they c`n play them. None an age where gamhng with

:23:44.:23:49.

often a solitary past time this created some interesting social

:23:50.:23:52.

interactions You get to plax with some people who are passion`te about

:23:53.:23:56.

the game, and just really wdlcoming, great community. Bankers or people

:23:57.:24:01.

like taxi drive, any walk of life will come down and it is good to mix

:24:02.:24:05.

and mingle with different ctltures. We have had kids turn up with their

:24:06.:24:09.

parents as young as seven or eight and people who are reaching their

:24:10.:24:13.

50s. You pay at the door rather than into slots and just play as if it is

:24:14.:24:19.

1984. That is a great idea. Now the

:24:20.:24:23.

weather with Sarah. It is a grey mixed sort of day today. It has been

:24:24.:24:28.

fairly cloudy and gloomy. Some opt my. For the weekend. Overnight west

:24:29.:24:34.

stick with the cloud. It will be mild but that kicks off the weekend

:24:35.:24:37.

weather. Things will improvd as we head through Saturday, but we have

:24:38.:24:42.

had the slow`moving weather front across us, bringing plenty of cloud

:24:43.:24:45.

and we have drizzly rain, still just to the south of London, a fdw spots

:24:46.:24:49.

of light rain to be seen out of this weather front. For most of ts things

:24:50.:24:54.

are improving. So we end thd day on a dry note. You could see one or two

:24:55.:25:00.

spots of rain, but for most the blanket of cloud staying thdre, so

:25:01.:25:05.

things will be mild. Temper`tures of round 11`16 degrees first thing

:25:06.:25:08.

Saturday morning. We will h`ve that cloud round during the mornhng but

:25:09.:25:12.

as when he had through the course of Saturday, the sunshine will just try

:25:13.:25:14.

to breakthrough, so I think by the afternoon, the cloud thinning and

:25:15.:25:18.

breaking, allowing some spells of sunshine. Where the sunshind comes

:25:19.:25:21.

through it will lift the temperatures and form we will feel

:25:22.:25:26.

muggy, sticky with highs up to 6 degrees and those temperatures

:25:27.:25:30.

enough to spark off one or two isolated showers, and perhaps the

:25:31.:25:34.

odd thunderstorm during the course of Saturday afternoon. So for many

:25:35.:25:40.

places it will stay dry. A dry, early evening but the cloud

:25:41.:25:44.

increases and the rain heads in There will be a period of wdt

:25:45.:25:48.

weather and it is round first thing Sunday morning. In on Sundax an

:25:49.:25:51.

improving story, the rain clears away and we are left with stnny

:25:52.:25:55.

spell, still a chance of a shower but it will feel freshen on Sunday.

:25:56.:25:59.

Temperatures round about 23 degrees or so.

:26:00.:26:02.

So that is how it looks over the next couple of day, we have got a

:26:03.:26:06.

muggy day during the course of Saturday, fresherror through Sunday

:26:07.:26:09.

and that fresher theme conthnues right into next week. Thank you

:26:10.:26:13.
