:00:06. > :00:16.30 years since the start of the Falklands War. Britain remembers

:00:16. > :00:22.those who died to defend the islands. The families of the fallen

:00:22. > :00:27.pay their respects. 255 British servicemen killed in the conflict.

:00:27. > :00:32.Thanks to what we did in sending a task force, they have a future and

:00:32. > :00:37.a future that they should determine. Argentine forces invaded the

:00:37. > :00:39.islands, triggering a battle on the ground, in the air and at sea. Amid

:00:39. > :00:47.renewed tensions with Argentina, we'll report on what a new

:00:47. > :00:50.generation there thinks. Also tonight: The mother murdered

:00:51. > :00:56.by her 14-year-old son. Daniel Bartlam jailed for 16 years. The

:00:56. > :00:59.court heard he was influenced by TV and film violence. He was obviously

:00:59. > :01:03.a boy who planned what he thought was the perfect murder and was

:01:03. > :01:05.prepared to go to a number of steps to get away with it.

:01:05. > :01:07.Fuel tanker drivers and their bosses agree to talk on Wednesday

:01:49. > :01:52.Good evening. Welcome to the BBC News at 6pm. It is 30 years since

:01:52. > :01:57.the start of the Falklands War and the families of the fallen have

:01:57. > :02:00.taken part in a service of remembrance. 255 British servicemen

:02:00. > :02:03.were killed in the 74-day battle that followed the invasion of the

:02:03. > :02:08.island by Argentine forces. David Cameron said Britain was as

:02:08. > :02:11.committed to the islanders today as it was three decades ago. In a

:02:11. > :02:19.moment we'll report from Argentina but first, Caroline Wyatt on the

:02:19. > :02:22.service at the National Memorial Arboretum in Staffordshire.

:02:22. > :02:26.At the National Memorial Arboretum, a day of remembrance and reflection

:02:26. > :02:31.for those who served, and the families whose lives were changed

:02:31. > :02:35.forever by this conflict. We meet in this place and in the presence

:02:35. > :02:39.of God to remember those who served, and those who lost their lives in

:02:39. > :02:45.the Falklands conflict. This morning they gathered for a service

:02:45. > :02:51.in the chapel, in memory of a campaign that cost the lives of 255

:02:51. > :02:55.British servicemen. Margaret Allen had been married for just two weeks

:02:55. > :02:59.when herself -- when her husband, Able Seaman Iain Boldy, was sent as

:02:59. > :03:06.part of the task force. He never came home. Today she lit the candle

:03:06. > :03:10.that will burn until June 14th. see his face and I think about the

:03:10. > :03:16.last time that I saw him and how lovely it was and how special he

:03:16. > :03:21.was and how much I miss him actually. One April 2nd, 1982,

:03:21. > :03:27.Falkland Islanders were cut to fund the Argentinians had invaded. --

:03:27. > :03:31.work up to find. A British task force of 100 ships was hastily

:03:31. > :03:41.dispatched by Margaret Thatcher, 8,000 miles by sea, to take the

:03:41. > :03:46.islands back. It was a daring move. Argentine forces fought back. Their

:03:46. > :03:50.air force, attacking and sinking several British ships in what would

:03:50. > :03:53.become known as Bomb Alley. Stephen Hughes was the medical officer

:03:53. > :03:59.helping to treat his friends and comrades and he is still scarred by

:03:59. > :04:06.the memories. It comes back on anniversaries, I think, just the

:04:06. > :04:09.feeling of desperation and grief when you have lost friends. If you

:04:09. > :04:14.are in a casualty department and somebody comes in seriously injured,

:04:14. > :04:17.it is virtually never going to happen that it is your boss, and

:04:17. > :04:23.set for best friends that are dead as well as other people that you

:04:23. > :04:28.know -- and several best friends. It hits you like a train. Britain's

:04:28. > :04:33.Harriers flew into action, as the late Brian Hanrahan reported for

:04:33. > :04:38.the BBC. I am not allowed to say how many planes joined the air raid

:04:38. > :04:44.but I counted them all out and I counted them all back. Our pilots

:04:44. > :04:48.were unhurt, cheerful and jubilant, giving a thumbs-up signs.

:04:48. > :04:52.dramatic land battle proved a turning point. In late May, British

:04:52. > :04:59.troops took on a forced West their number includes Green, retaking it

:04:59. > :05:04.with the loss of 17 men, among them the commanding officer of 2 Para,

:05:04. > :05:12.Colonel H Jones. By June, British forces prevailed, against all the

:05:12. > :05:18.odds. One's overwhelming feeling is one of pride in not only my husband

:05:18. > :05:24.but our task force achieved in 1982. Today the Prime Minister saluted

:05:24. > :05:26.their heroism and stressed that now as then, Britain stands behind the

:05:26. > :05:31.Falkland islanders and the self determination that was fought for

:05:31. > :05:33.at such cost. Today's anniversary comes amid

:05:34. > :05:38.renewed tensions between Britain and Argentina over what they call

:05:38. > :05:42.Las Malvinas. The Argentinian government wants to reclaim the

:05:42. > :05:45.territory which it claims was stolen in colonial times. But as

:05:45. > :05:55.John Simpson reports from Argentina, there is little appetite for a new

:05:55. > :05:59.

:05:59. > :06:05.military campaign. Early morning in Buenos Aires.

:06:05. > :06:08.Argentine dead in the war is about to open. And Miguel Angel is

:06:08. > :06:17.waiting to pay his respects to friends and comrades.

:06:17. > :06:22.TRANSLATION: 30 years on, so many lives lost for no reason. It wasn't

:06:22. > :06:29.worth a single life. Captain Armando Mayora was one of the

:06:29. > :06:37.pilots who sank HMS Sheffield. TRANSLATION: I am sorry that 22

:06:37. > :06:43.Britons died but it was inevitable. As professionals, we had to do our

:06:43. > :06:48.job and that does cause casualties. Yet after 30 years, attitudes

:06:48. > :06:51.remain unchanged. These students in a Buenos Aires bar were not even

:06:51. > :07:01.born then. But they all think the same way.

:07:01. > :07:10.TRANSLATION: Las Malvinas are Argentine and were taken from us by

:07:10. > :07:14.an empire. Will there be another war over the Falklands? No. No. But

:07:14. > :07:18.Argentina couldn't do it anyway. Ever since the collapse of the

:07:18. > :07:23.military regime after the Falklands war, successive civilian

:07:24. > :07:28.governments have been cutting back savagely on military spending. No

:07:28. > :07:35.new planes for 30 years, only just enough money to pay the wages. This

:07:35. > :07:39.is a country which has chosen unilaterally to disarm itself. But

:07:39. > :07:44.now it is conducting a diplomatic more to try to get the eye lens.

:07:44. > :07:50.Gabriella Cerruti, a political ally for the government, thinks it is a

:07:50. > :07:53.success. It is the first time that all of South America is in the same

:07:53. > :08:00.way with Argentina in this claim so this is very important for

:08:00. > :08:05.Argentina, that all South America is supported Argentina and that is

:08:05. > :08:09.the first time. But the British doubt it. Most Latin American

:08:09. > :08:12.countries are apparently saying quietly they do not want to get it

:08:13. > :08:17.involved. People in Argentina would be very much mistaken if they

:08:17. > :08:21.thought Britain was retreating from the scene or not interested in the

:08:21. > :08:26.region or weakening in any way in our commitment to the people of the

:08:26. > :08:30.Falkland Islands. Critics of the government think the reason that

:08:30. > :08:36.the diplomatic battle is heating up is that Argentina's economy is in

:08:36. > :08:42.trouble, and all of this provides useful distraction. But even the

:08:42. > :08:44.critics think that the islands belong to Argentina.

:08:44. > :08:51.Let's go back to our defence correspondent, Caroline Wyatt, at

:08:51. > :08:55.the National Memorial Arboretum in Staffordshire. John was making it

:08:55. > :09:00.clear that there is no appetite for war but yet a British warship is

:09:00. > :09:05.setting sail for the Falklands this week?

:09:05. > :09:09.That is right, it will set sail for the Falklands but there are two

:09:09. > :09:17.messages there and one is one of reassurance that Britain stands by

:09:17. > :09:22.the Falkland Islanders side, now at the did the two years ago. But also,

:09:22. > :09:27.a clear message to the Argentines - - now, as it did 30 years ago. This

:09:27. > :09:30.is not meant to be aggressive, but to show that the UK is ready to

:09:30. > :09:35.defend the Falkland Islands should that become necessary. Their main

:09:35. > :09:40.issue is one of deterrence, to say to the Argentinians that it is

:09:40. > :09:43.simply not worth trying anything militarily. I think what we

:09:43. > :09:47.generally have is a war of words. We heard from the Argentine

:09:47. > :09:51.President today saying that Britain has done the wrong thing in laying

:09:51. > :09:55.claim to what she says his Argentinian territory and

:09:55. > :09:59.Argentinian oil, but what most military analysts say, with a

:09:59. > :10:03.defensive posture and all of the rest, that should be enough to

:10:03. > :10:07.deter any military action, that Argentina does not want military

:10:07. > :10:11.action and nor indeed would the UK. A schoolboy who murdered his mother

:10:12. > :10:14.with a hammer has been jailed for at least 16 years. Daniel Bartlam

:10:15. > :10:19.carried out the attack just weeks after his 14th birthday, and then

:10:19. > :10:22.set fire to the house in Nottingham. The court heard that he was

:10:22. > :10:30.fascinated with horror films and a murder plot in Coronation Street.

:10:30. > :10:34.Mark Worthington reports. An ordinary internet video by a

:10:34. > :10:39.seemingly ordinary boy. But shortly after he made his recording about

:10:39. > :10:45.his 14th birthday present, Daniel Bartlam murdered his own mother and

:10:45. > :10:48.tried to cover it up. Today a judge called Jacqueline Bartlam's killing

:10:48. > :10:54.grotesque and senseless. She was hit seven times with a hammer,

:10:54. > :10:58.doused in petrol, then set alight by her teenage son. This photograph

:10:58. > :11:02.taken by a neighbour shows the fire that followed. With most of the

:11:02. > :11:06.evidence destroyed, Daniel Bartlam claimed his mother had been

:11:06. > :11:10.attacked by an intruder, but his story unravelled on a pathologist

:11:10. > :11:14.found that the different type of how much he had planted in the

:11:14. > :11:18.debris could not have caused the winds. He is a boy who planned what

:11:18. > :11:22.he thought was the perfect murder and was prepared to go through a

:11:22. > :11:27.number of steps to get away with it. Once he was caught for murder, he

:11:27. > :11:32.tried to get it reduced to manslaughter. Daniel Bartlam was

:11:32. > :11:36.obsessed with extreme violence, on the internet, in film and on

:11:36. > :11:41.television. When he killed his own mother in their home, he was acting

:11:41. > :11:45.out a scene from a fictional script he had been writing on his computer

:11:45. > :11:51.in which a character, also called Daniel, killed his mother and tried

:11:51. > :11:55.to cover it up in exactly the same way. This scene from the soap

:11:55. > :12:00.Coronation Street, one of several Daniel Bartlam watched, looking for

:12:00. > :12:05.inspiration. He used to write stories but his stories were more

:12:05. > :12:10.Mark Harper. They were about fighting and knives and killing. He

:12:10. > :12:17.drew pictures of blood dripping from knives. I don't think he was

:12:17. > :12:20.mad, I think he was bad. He killed the most vulnerable person and he

:12:20. > :12:25.thought in making up the lies that he did, he would get away with

:12:25. > :12:29.murder. Although he is still only 15, the judge ruled that Daniel

:12:29. > :12:36.Bartlam's name and face could be made public. He was sentenced to

:12:36. > :12:40.life and told he would serve at least 16 years in prison.

:12:40. > :12:46.Talks to try to avert a fuel strike by tanker drivers are to start on

:12:46. > :12:48.Wednesday. The announcement came as the latest figures showed that last

:12:48. > :12:55.week's panic-buying has subsided but some independent petrol

:12:55. > :12:59.stations are still reporting shortages. Some motorists are still

:12:59. > :13:04.complaining about price rises. The panic-buying might have died

:13:04. > :13:08.down but now drivers are worried about prices going up. I don't know

:13:08. > :13:13.how they are getting away with putting it up, it is disgusting.

:13:13. > :13:19.They know people need it so they will pay it. It is going up 3p a

:13:20. > :13:26.week, then that is a big difference. I paid �1.56 yesterday for diesel.

:13:26. > :13:30.Luckily, I don't pay, my business does, but it is a worry. Andrew

:13:30. > :13:35.Lorenz owns five petrol stations across Norfolk and he says he has

:13:35. > :13:39.been forced to put 2p on to the cost of unleaded at one of them. He

:13:39. > :13:44.denies they are profiteering. is not the case. The trade prices

:13:44. > :13:47.have risen and we have got to make a profit, albeit very small, simply

:13:47. > :13:53.do stay in business and that is why we have had to put a small increase

:13:53. > :13:58.on. One of Andrew's station is out of fuel, with no delivery expected

:13:58. > :14:02.until Thursday, and that is common across the country. Sales are

:14:02. > :14:07.actually lower than they were before the crisis started. Down 6%

:14:07. > :14:12.for diesel yesterday and 23% for petrol. But that is partly because

:14:12. > :14:17.of closed pumps. One opinion poll suggests a third of stations run

:14:17. > :14:21.out of stock at some point. It all means that this will be a familiar

:14:21. > :14:26.sight for the rest of the week. When we get a backlog of orders, as

:14:26. > :14:30.happened last week, it will take some time to get the stock from the

:14:30. > :14:36.terminal to the forecourt. We don't anticipate this been totally

:14:36. > :14:40.eradicated until before Easter. If there is any more serious panic-

:14:40. > :14:45.buying, we are in real trouble. government has been blamed for

:14:45. > :14:50.provoking a crisis after telling drivers to top up their tanks. It

:14:50. > :14:55.is advice they have now changed. There are talks going on, there is

:14:55. > :14:58.no threat of a strike over Easter, I hope there will not be a strike

:14:58. > :15:03.at all so there is no reason for people to rush out and fill up

:15:03. > :15:06.their cars with petrol. Formal talks begin on Wednesday so there

:15:06. > :15:16.will not be any strike action any time soon but the threat still

:15:16. > :15:18.

:15:18. > :15:23.Our top story tonight: 30 years since the start of the Falklands

:15:23. > :15:27.war. Britain remembers the 255 servicemen killed in the conflict.

:15:28. > :15:34.Coming up: The man behind that famous pickled shark. Damien Hirst

:15:34. > :15:40.defends his controversial artworks. The thing you have got to have is

:15:40. > :15:44.people have got to go wow. I hate art that you have to think about.

:15:44. > :15:48.Later on the news channel: Unemployment in the eurozone has

:15:48. > :15:58.reached its highest level since the single currency was introduced in

:15:58. > :16:00.

:16:00. > :16:03.1999. Good news for the economy, as manufacturing in the UK picks up.

:16:03. > :16:06.Two injured British sailors have been rescued from their yacht off

:16:06. > :16:09.the coast of California. They'd been taking part in the Clipper

:16:09. > :16:13.Round the World Race when a huge wave swamped the boat. Two other

:16:13. > :16:19.crew members were also injured but have been able to stay on board

:16:19. > :16:28.until the yacht docks in San Francisco. Robert Hall reports.

:16:28. > :16:33.On US coastguard cameras a glimpse of the 6le-foot Geraldton Australia.

:16:33. > :16:36.On board, two out of four injured crew members needed urgent

:16:37. > :16:40.attention. Nik Berbora and Jane Hitchens had been hurt when a huge

:16:40. > :16:43.wave struck from a stern. As the coastguard dropped extra medical

:16:43. > :16:49.supplies the rescue mission was followed by anxious race officials

:16:50. > :16:55.here in the UK. The most seriously injured was actually the on board

:16:55. > :17:00.doctor, a doctor in her civilian life. But she really stepped up to

:17:00. > :17:03.the task and even though she was injured and hurt and was breathing

:17:03. > :17:08.oxygen from a bottle she was helping diagnose other problems as

:17:08. > :17:14.well. The only way to evacuate the injured was to brave the swell. 24

:17:14. > :17:22.hours after the incident, a dinghy from the coastguard was beginning

:17:22. > :17:28.that operation. A drama played out in the closing stages of a 5,600

:17:28. > :17:32.leg from China to oak land, California. Footage from an earlier

:17:32. > :17:38.stage of the race underlining the risks that every crew member trains

:17:38. > :17:40.for. We had seen waves that could do what they did to Geraldton, so

:17:40. > :17:45.pretty shocked and we all know the people on the boat, that was the

:17:45. > :17:51.most difficult thing. Back in the Pacific news of a successful rescue.

:17:51. > :18:01.Dr Hitchens, now suspected of having several broken ribs, and Mr

:18:01. > :18:02.

:18:02. > :18:06.Berbora a pelvic injury. Her quick- thinking earned praise. She's a

:18:06. > :18:10.capable clinician, I am sure she took an active role in self-

:18:11. > :18:15.diagnosis and arranging her extraction off the vessel. Tonight,

:18:15. > :18:19.Dr Hitchens and Mr Berbora are recovering in hospital as the

:18:19. > :18:26.Geraldton heads for the finish line, both will be hoping they can rejoin

:18:26. > :18:29.their around the world adventure. Ministers have been defending plans

:18:29. > :18:33.to make it easier for the security services to monitor the e-mails,

:18:33. > :18:36.text messages and online history of everyone in the UK. The Home Office

:18:36. > :18:39.insists that safeguards would be put in place if the law was changed.

:18:39. > :18:43.But critics, inside and outside parliament, say it could all amount

:18:43. > :18:48.to snooping. Our political correspondent Iain Watson is at

:18:48. > :18:50.Westminster. Is the opposition to this building? Well, what will

:18:50. > :18:54.worry the Government is that they're getting opposition from

:18:55. > :18:58.some of their own MPs and not just from Labour. There are concerns

:18:58. > :19:01.about civil liberties, I am told there is a prospect of a

:19:01. > :19:05.parliamentary rebellion against their plans and one Conservative MP

:19:05. > :19:09.has gone as far as obtaining previously confidential documents

:19:09. > :19:14.from the office of the Information Commissioner and this document from

:19:14. > :19:16.2010 acts as a risk-register about the potential problems in the

:19:16. > :19:26.Government's proposals, it raises a question of whether the collection

:19:26. > :19:30.of new data might act as a kind of honeypot, attracting unwealthy --

:19:30. > :19:33.unwelcome attention. But there are also calls here for commercial

:19:33. > :19:36.companies to be banned from using the new data for their own purposes.

:19:36. > :19:39.What the Home Office are telling me tonight is that they are already

:19:39. > :19:44.addressing some of the concerns raised in that document, they're

:19:44. > :19:49.going to put robust safeguards in place, we will see see them next

:19:49. > :19:52.next month. They want to reassure the new powers will be related to

:19:52. > :20:00.investigating serious crimes and potential acts of terrorism.

:20:00. > :20:03.Thank you. The Burmese opposition leader, Aung San Suu Kyi, has

:20:03. > :20:05.claimed an historic victory in the country's by-elections. She won a

:20:05. > :20:08.parliamentary seat and initial results suggest her party gained

:20:08. > :20:11.nearly all the seats it contested. Despite her success, the Burmese

:20:11. > :20:13.army and its allies still dominate the country's parliament. But,

:20:13. > :20:19.addressing a crowd of jubilant supporters this morning, she said

:20:19. > :20:23.she hoped her victory would herald a new era for the country.

:20:23. > :20:26.It is not so much our triumph as a triumph of the people who have

:20:26. > :20:30.decided that they must be involved in the political process of this

:20:30. > :20:35.country. We hope that this will be the beginning of a new era where

:20:35. > :20:45.there will be more emphasis on the role of the people in the everyday

:20:45. > :20:48.

:20:48. > :20:50.politics of our country. Aung San Suu Kyi there.

:20:50. > :20:53.Ed Miliband has launched his party's campaign for the local

:20:53. > :20:56.elections. The Labour leader has pledged to govern for the whole

:20:56. > :21:04.country, not just for the wealthy few. There are about 5,000 council

:21:04. > :21:07.seats being contested in England, Scotland and Wales on May 3rd.

:21:07. > :21:10.They inhabit a shadowy world, with much about their work and lives

:21:10. > :21:13.classified top secret. They are the men and women of MI5 and MI6.

:21:13. > :21:16.Tonight on BBC2, in a new documentary series, serving spies

:21:16. > :21:23.talk publicly for the first time about what it takes to operate deep

:21:23. > :21:28.undercover. Here's Peter Taylor. We are familiar with the buildings

:21:29. > :21:33.of MI6 and MI5, but we know very little about the spies themselves

:21:33. > :21:36.and the secret world in which they work. Michael's identity is

:21:36. > :21:41.concealed, like his colleagues, he can't talk about particular

:21:42. > :21:47.operations or policy. He recruits and runs agents for MI6, also known

:21:47. > :21:52.as SIS. Only my very close family know that I work for SIS. With

:21:52. > :21:56.everyone else I have to adopt a cover of working for another

:21:56. > :22:01.Government department and to make that sound as dull as possible.

:22:01. > :22:06.Michael's life is anything but dull. He works at the sharp end in al-

:22:06. > :22:11.Qaeda's heartlands. When you are in some dusty outpost about to meet

:22:11. > :22:16.for the first time, a contact within a terrorist organisation,

:22:16. > :22:21.that is nerve-racking. I don't think we would get very far if we

:22:21. > :22:25.were timid and risk-averse. Names, sources, runners, everything...

:22:25. > :22:30.most of us our image of spying is conditioned by programmes like

:22:30. > :22:33.Spooks. This is a long way from reality.

:22:33. > :22:38.What was your mother's reaction when you told her you were going to

:22:38. > :22:43.work for MI5? My mother was horrified. She had watched Spooks

:22:43. > :22:52.and her reaction was oh my goodness, going to end up with your head in a

:22:52. > :22:56.fat frier. And there is another enduring myth embodied in 007.

:22:56. > :23:00.name's Bond, James Bond. Do you have a licence to kill? No, we

:23:00. > :23:03.don't. The key elements of the James Bond myth are that we are

:23:03. > :23:07.some kind of military or paramilitary organisation, that's

:23:07. > :23:12.not the case. If James Bond actually worked in MI6 today he

:23:12. > :23:17.would spend a large amount of time behind a desk doing paperwork. He

:23:17. > :23:21.certainly wouldn't be the lone wolf of the films. The London bombings

:23:21. > :23:26.showed that the risks are real, as are the intrusive surveillance

:23:27. > :23:31.techniques used to try to prevent such attacks. Do you have any

:23:31. > :23:37.hesitation about spying on the lives of others? No, not at all. I

:23:37. > :23:41.know why I am doing it. I am trying to prevent something major

:23:41. > :23:46.occurring, which could lead on to loss of life. What is your biggest

:23:46. > :23:53.fear? Missing it. Missing a vital bit of information.

:23:53. > :23:56.The modern spies I met bore little little relation to their

:23:56. > :24:01.counterparts in James Bond and Spooks but they believe they can

:24:01. > :24:09.and do save lives. And you can watch Modern Spies,

:24:09. > :24:12.tonight on BBC2 at 9.00pm. A pickled shark, a rotting cow's

:24:12. > :24:15.head and a diamond-encrusted skull, just some of the works that have

:24:15. > :24:18.helped the artist Damien Hirst earn tens of millions of pounds during

:24:18. > :24:21.his career. Now, for the first time in Britain, they've gone on display

:24:21. > :24:27.together. Our arts editor, Will Gompertz, has been speaking to the

:24:27. > :24:33.artist. Damien Hirst, in front of the

:24:33. > :24:36.artwork that made him famous and shaped his image as the the -- bad

:24:36. > :24:42.boy of British art, that was more than 20 years ago. Today he is

:24:42. > :24:48.grown up and grey-haired and enjoying a career retrospective at

:24:48. > :24:51.Tate Modern. A greatest hits show. People have to go wow, you know, I

:24:51. > :24:55.hate art that you have to think about. I like art that grabs you,

:24:55. > :24:58.like it does in the Natural History Museum, you see kids and adults

:24:58. > :25:03.running around feeling like kids and I wanted art that did that.

:25:03. > :25:06.What's the difference between your work and a piece in the Natural

:25:06. > :25:12.History Museum? Anything done well is art. Somebody said to me once

:25:12. > :25:16.how do you know it's art? I am like, it's in an art gallery. In 2008

:25:16. > :25:22.Damien Hirst bought these pieces and many others to Sotheby in

:25:22. > :25:27.London for an inprecedented auction of new works by living artist. He

:25:27. > :25:30.ended up taking away over �100 million. Mean skwraoeul, on the

:25:30. > :25:35.other side of the Atlantic, Lehman Brothers was in the process of

:25:35. > :25:39.going bust. Is it sort of pushing the point too far to say that

:25:39. > :25:43.making money is part of your art? We all need money to survive and

:25:43. > :25:47.you have to respect money, because so many people haven't got money

:25:47. > :25:51.and I became aware that you can definitely use money to get

:25:51. > :25:54.people's attention. After I had my auction at Sotheby I started

:25:54. > :25:57.getting noticed on the street by businessmen and that can't be a bad

:25:57. > :26:02.thing. You are behind the scenes a generous man, you support a lot of

:26:02. > :26:09.artists and yet your public image is you are a money-grabbing show-

:26:09. > :26:12.off. Really? Really. I think the image is an important as who you

:26:12. > :26:16.are, I don't really see it as an image, it's what I represent. I

:26:16. > :26:19.would much rather on the surface I didn't look like I was this cool

:26:19. > :26:24.guy and underneath I was a money- grabbing show-off. Damien Hirst

:26:24. > :26:28.told me that it feels strange having a retrospective. And

:26:28. > :26:32.becoming part of the establishment. In my mind I have always thought I

:26:32. > :26:37.want to be a punk or something, you know, I want kids to think I am

:26:37. > :26:43.cool, stupid things like that. I think in the end you become like

:26:43. > :26:48.the old fart making this - he is not still doing those animals in

:26:48. > :26:51.formaldehyde, that sort of vibe. said he wasn't really one to look

:26:52. > :26:56.back at his art. He prefers to look to the future and to what he sees

:26:56. > :27:02.as infinite possibilities, which has always been his approach to art

:27:02. > :27:07.and life. And time for the weather now with

:27:07. > :27:11.For many in Scotland you will have the impression that winter has

:27:11. > :27:14.returned tonight. We have a met office amber warning for snow. It's

:27:14. > :27:20.amber in the fact that it's likely to cause disruption through the

:27:20. > :27:23.night into the morning. Away tpra that it starts on a quiet note.

:27:23. > :27:26.Showers further north across England, Wales and Northern Ireland

:27:26. > :27:32.and southern Scotland. The snow is a feature tonight, initially across

:27:32. > :27:35.the far north, pushing through central and eastern areas. The A9,

:27:35. > :27:38.may be affected. Even through the central belt into tomorrow

:27:38. > :27:41.morning's rush hour, particularly to the eastern parts around

:27:41. > :27:45.Edinburgh and the borders, we could have a few problems. Cold air

:27:45. > :27:48.really setting in here, it stays largely frost-free further south

:27:48. > :27:52.because of the cloud. Maybe brightness in the south coast

:27:52. > :27:55.initially, but that won't last long. Cloud will increase. Snow continues

:27:55. > :27:58.across the hills of Scotland and eventually develops across northern

:27:58. > :28:01.England through the day with sleet to lower levels, same too in

:28:01. > :28:07.Northern Ireland. And compared to today more cloud across other parts

:28:07. > :28:17.of England and Wales. Temperatures here still 10-12C. Outbreaks of

:28:17. > :28:21.rain, but that will come and go. Snow possible across the moors, the

:28:21. > :28:28.Pennines by the end of the afternoon. Rain and sleet clearing

:28:28. > :28:33.away from Northern Ireland. Heavy wintry showers in the north of

:28:33. > :28:36.Scotland. Rain, sleet and snow across England

:28:36. > :28:39.and Wales. Even across central and southern parts of England and Wales
