:00:08. > :00:13.This is South today from Oxford. Tonight, the most successful year
:00:13. > :00:20.ever for A—level results. The school where every pupil achieved the
:00:20. > :00:25.grades they needed. A midwife who claimed she had been forced out of
:00:25. > :00:34.her job for raising concerns about care loses her case against the NHS.
:00:34. > :00:43.Later, how this glass—maker's latest design has been conceived.
:00:43. > :00:49.Good evening. The wait is finally over for thousands of students who
:00:49. > :00:53.have been receiving their A—level results from schools and colleges
:00:53. > :01:01.across the region. In Oxfordshire, early indications show results are
:01:02. > :01:08.of a similar level to last year. Around 90% of students have received
:01:08. > :01:18.two or more A—levels at grades A* to E. One school has seen its best ever
:01:18. > :01:24.results. Louise Harvey came to this school after his 11 plus exams.
:01:24. > :01:32.He did not get the grades to go to grammar school. —— Lewis—mac Road.
:01:32. > :01:44.None of his teachers could have predicted what happened today. I got
:01:44. > :01:50.two As and a B. Only four students here did not get the grades needed
:01:50. > :01:54.for university. All teachers will go that extra mile for their students.
:01:54. > :02:02.They know what they need and what they want. The staff here today are
:02:02. > :02:07.buzzing. Universities in the South have seen an increase in admissions
:02:07. > :02:09.for the first time since 2010. The numbers dropped with the
:02:10. > :02:18.introduction of tuition fees and with more people doing
:02:18. > :02:22.apprenticeships. I have got enough. If students do not get the results
:02:22. > :02:26.they want today it is not the end of the world. They can go through the
:02:26. > :02:30.clearing process and that is what is happening here at this university,
:02:30. > :02:35.calls coming through from students hoping to sign up to any of the
:02:35. > :02:41.available courses. Admission is here are up 3% on last year. They are
:02:41. > :02:45.hoping it shows a recovery. It is still worthwhile and it does
:02:45. > :02:51.contribute to increased earnings over time. If they have got a degree
:02:51. > :02:57.rather than not. Many universities like this one will run student
:02:57. > :03:02.hotlines into the weekend, until the clearing process ends. This bite the
:03:02. > :03:09.rise in fees last year many students still aspire to go to university.
:03:09. > :03:14.—— despite the rise. Two stars of this year's Apprentice are
:03:14. > :03:24.encouraging students to go to university. Here they are an The
:03:24. > :03:33.Apprentice. If Jason stays Project manager or not... If he is not 100%
:03:33. > :03:38.into it than I am sorry. I would like to be Project manager. Jason, I
:03:38. > :03:46.think you have lost it. Job done. Louisa is project manager. That was
:03:46. > :03:50.Jason's last task. He was fired at the end of the
:03:51. > :03:55.show. He went to Oxford University and once students from a wide range
:03:55. > :03:59.of backgrounds to consider going there too. I spoke to him earlier
:03:59. > :04:04.and asked about the hurdles that students face. First there is the
:04:04. > :04:09.participation of getting students from a poor background to think, I
:04:09. > :04:13.can do this, I can go to Oxford, and sending in the application in the
:04:13. > :04:16.first place. Then it is about repairing them, training them,
:04:17. > :04:21.polishing them up so they can go into interview in December
:04:21. > :05:20.effortlessly and make sure that their application is successful. You
:05:20. > :05:23.can go straight down the market stall and crack on with setting up a
:05:23. > :05:28.business but university can teach you how to think. For most people,
:05:28. > :05:32.being able to think faster and clearer and better is something that
:05:33. > :05:37.is going to help them in whatever walk of life they do, whether
:05:38. > :05:42.business or anything else. But with education, I think you can make
:05:42. > :05:51.those decisions faster, you can be more agile and perceptive. Hankie.
:05:51. > :05:54.—— thank you. The former BBC radio presenter David Lee Travis has been
:05:54. > :06:02.charged with sexual offences. He has been charged with 12 offences
:06:02. > :06:06.from between 1977 to 2007. It follows an investigation by
:06:06. > :06:11.detectives from Operation Yewtree, the enquiry set up by Scotland Yard
:06:11. > :06:19.after the Jimmy Savile scandal. A midwife claiming she was punished
:06:19. > :06:21.after whistle—blowing has had her case dismissed.
:06:21. > :06:27.An employment tribunal said Louise Westwood was not a victim of a
:06:27. > :06:33.conspiracy white managers. The NHS trust that employed her had always
:06:33. > :06:37.denied the accusations. What happened today? The tribunal took
:06:37. > :06:42.four hours to decide there was no underhand conspiracy by managers at
:06:42. > :06:46.the Cotswolds maternity unit to get rid of Louise Westwood. The trust
:06:46. > :06:51.maintained all along she was moved from her job because of Orleans and
:06:51. > :06:59.not because she blew the whistle. —— because of the lien. She spoke to
:06:59. > :07:06.managers in early 2012 and she said patients were at risk because
:07:06. > :07:12.another week by —— another midwife was hard of hearing. Shortly
:07:12. > :07:19.afterwards she was investigated for harassing that other midwife. The
:07:19. > :07:25.tribunal sided with the trust. I spoke to Mrs Westwood after the
:07:25. > :07:28.verdict. It was not the result I wanted. An independent panel made
:07:28. > :07:34.that decision and I will have to live with that. At least we have
:07:34. > :07:40.closure. A short time ago the Oxford hospitals NHS trust released a
:07:40. > :07:46.statement. It said, we are pleased that the tribunal raised that ——
:07:46. > :07:53.ruled that the accusations were unfounded. Throughout all of this
:07:53. > :07:57.Mrs Westwood has remained an employee of the trust but she said
:07:57. > :08:04.she is unsure of what she will do in the future. 50% of 11—year—olds in
:08:05. > :08:08.Oxfordshire are obese. The figure is lower than the
:08:08. > :08:11.national average of 19% but the county council is concerned about
:08:11. > :08:15.children putting on weight after the age of five. It has launched a
:08:16. > :08:20.scheme to educate people about the importance of healthy living. The
:08:20. > :08:29.project will see activities in parks, shopping centres and
:08:29. > :08:37.libraries. They have cyber cycling, who live you being, dancing. —— Hula
:08:37. > :08:46.Hoop. It is to show you to not have to be in a team to keep active. And
:08:46. > :08:49.literature is given to the parents. Thousands of sports clubs across our
:08:49. > :08:53.region operate on tiny budget and that means a small amount of money
:08:53. > :09:00.can make a very big difference. It might mean new changing rooms, new
:09:00. > :09:03.equipment or a new pitch. One year on from London 2012 and some clubs
:09:03. > :09:09.here have received their very own Olympic windfall.
:09:09. > :09:16.Everyone gets supported, from the fun seekers to those aiming big.
:09:16. > :09:22.This centre offers its gymnasts a spacious, well equipped playground,
:09:22. > :09:27.but it is not —— it has not always been that way. We have double the
:09:27. > :09:32.size of the building. We have been able to equip it. Our membership has
:09:33. > :09:39.grown to the extent we now have 1000 members, which we never dream we
:09:39. > :09:44.would have before. The numbers have gone through the roof. They have had
:09:44. > :09:51.£50,000 from sport England's fund which offers a helping hand to
:09:51. > :09:57.grassroots clubs. You are not talking about putting money into the
:09:57. > :10:01.elite athletes' clubs. It is about grassroots so everyone has an
:10:01. > :10:05.opportunity to go to a sports club in their local community to give
:10:05. > :10:10.them a platform to try to build a sports career if they want. Without
:10:10. > :10:14.it we could not have got to the places we have got to. What would
:10:14. > :10:22.you like to say to the people handing out the money? Thank you!So
:10:22. > :10:25.one year on from the Olympics, the money is finding its way to clubs
:10:25. > :10:30.like MK Springers, and it is good news for those getting to grips with
:10:30. > :10:34.the sport. There has been disappointment for
:10:34. > :10:37.Hannah England on at the World Athletics Championships. The silver
:10:37. > :10:42.medallist at the last championships in South Korea, 26 and from Oxford,
:10:42. > :10:46.finished fourth in the evening's final in Moscow, although she
:10:46. > :10:50.produced a strong finish in the final straight. That is all from us.

:11:13. > :11:21.South Today: Tony Husband has been enjoying a game of cricket. The
:11:21. > :11:25.Ashes with a difference. England against Australia over 70s. The
:11:25. > :11:30.first match in a three—game series. I'll tell you who came out on top in
:11:30. > :11:33.a moment. The Bournemouth group of Surfers
:11:33. > :11:36.Against Sewage are meeting now with the developers of proposed offshore
:11:36. > :11:40.wind farm at Navitus Bay. The proposed wind farm would have more
:11:40. > :11:42.than 200 turbines some 12 miles off Bournemouth's shoreline. The surfers
:11:42. > :11:44.want to discuss how that could affect sea conditions including the
:11:44. > :11:48.swell. Figures out today reveal there's
:11:48. > :11:50.been a big jump in the number of Romanians and Bulgarians working in
:11:50. > :11:54.the UK. Many nationalities still want to come here and the
:11:54. > :11:57.Government's focus is on trying to control the numbers arriving from
:11:57. > :12:00.outside the EU. A year ago it introduced new rules so workers can
:12:00. > :12:04.only bring a husband or wife into the UK if they earn more than
:12:04. > :12:07.£18,000. Only one other major Western country has a higher limit
:12:07. > :12:08.and campaigners say it's unfairly keeping families apart. James Ingham
:12:08. > :12:12.reports. After a decade in the UK, Inodeen
:12:12. > :12:16.Naizai has the same rights as every other Briton. But his low pay is
:12:16. > :12:19.stopping him living with his wife, who he married in Pakistan.
:12:19. > :12:29.Immigration rule changes mean he's unable to sponsor her visa. Is too
:12:29. > :12:33.much for my wife, for me. Life is no good for me and my wife. Anyone in
:12:33. > :12:36.this country wishing to be joined by their husband or wife from outside
:12:36. > :12:40.the EU must prove they earn £18,600 a year — more if they have children.
:12:40. > :12:49.The Government says that ensures couples won't become reliant on the
:12:49. > :12:51.taxpayer for financial support. The community is very worried. Leaders
:12:51. > :12:54.from communities across Southampton — representing Sikhs, Muslims and
:12:54. > :13:03.Christians — are campaigning to get that threshold reduced. It's causing
:13:03. > :13:08.the family is anxiety, depression. They're getting mentally disturbed,
:13:08. > :13:15.it's causing family arguments, ripping them apart, keeping them
:13:15. > :13:19.away from loved ones. The income threshold has been criticised by a
:13:19. > :13:23.group of MPs looking at migration. A High Court judge has also described
:13:23. > :13:26.them as onerous and unjustified. The government says it will review the
:13:26. > :13:29.impact of the rules are having and in the meantime has put all
:13:29. > :13:32.applications that don't meet the minimum requirement on hold while it
:13:32. > :13:35.appeals against the court ruling. The threshold is well above the
:13:35. > :13:39.minimum wage of around £13,000 a year. Nearly half of all working
:13:39. > :13:43.people would be unable to sponsor a partner based on their earnings.
:13:43. > :13:51.Opposition politicians agree with the need to limit immigration, but
:13:52. > :13:55.question the figure chosen. Obviously, the Conservatives have
:13:55. > :14:01.picked out a figure so that poor people can't reach it. What we say
:14:01. > :14:04.is, as long as you work, as long as you contribute, no figure really
:14:04. > :14:07.matters, as long as you are contributing to the country and not
:14:07. > :14:10.expecting the country to look after you. Inodeen talks regularly to his
:14:11. > :14:23.wife. If the rules remain the same, this is the only contact he'll have
:14:23. > :14:27.with her here. On to sport and Tony tends to pick
:14:27. > :14:31.his moments to get out of the TV studio very carefully. Two reasons
:14:31. > :14:34.tonight — particularly good. One is the weather and the other is to
:14:34. > :14:41.watch his favourite pastime, the cricket. I can see the sun is
:14:41. > :14:45.beaming down on you! Yes, it's glorious. We are at one of
:14:45. > :14:50.the most picturesque grounds in Hampshire. It has hosted the first
:14:50. > :14:55.test match between England and Australia. I'll have a bit more
:14:55. > :15:05.about that. But you mentioned that I've got a beaming smile and the sun
:15:05. > :15:10.is beaming down. Now, they say good things come to
:15:10. > :15:14.those who wait. Southampton striker Rickie Lambert waited a long time
:15:14. > :15:17.for his England debut. But he made the most of his big chance last
:15:17. > :15:21.night. It took the 31—year—old just two minutes and 47 seconds to score
:15:22. > :15:24.on his debut. His goal proved to be the winner in England's 3—2 defeat
:15:24. > :15:27.of Scotland. King of the back pages — and the
:15:27. > :15:30.headline writers' darling. Rickie Lambert's achievement last night
:15:30. > :15:32.spread delight around the world of football. It also sparked an
:15:32. > :15:35.explosion of ecstatic tweets in Twitter feeds across the South. The
:15:35. > :15:40.former beetroot factory worker's call—up at 31 had come late — but an
:15:40. > :15:43.hour into the match he came off the bench to replace fellow Scouser
:15:43. > :15:46.Wayne Rooney. But how's this for making up for lost time, after just
:15:46. > :15:48.under three minutes on the Wembley pitch?
:15:48. > :15:52.Lambert's header proved to be the decisive moment in the game and —
:15:52. > :16:00.but for a bobble off the turf and the width of a post — he very nearly
:16:00. > :16:13.bagged another. He could have scored three! I had the post. A little nick
:16:13. > :16:16.took it off my foot a little bit but I'm thankful to have scored a goal.
:16:16. > :16:22.For the fans at one Southampton pub today, the Lambert glow showed no
:16:22. > :16:27.sign of fading. It went absolutely mad in here. When he hit the post
:16:28. > :16:33.later, it went mad again. It was all about Lambert last night, not
:16:33. > :16:39.England. When Lambert came on, he was there for three minutes, scored
:16:39. > :16:45.a brilliant goal. Excellent game. Back training with Saints today,
:16:45. > :16:48.Lambert's smile said it all! How are you feeling? I'm all right,
:16:48. > :16:51.OK. Lambert was not doing interviews
:16:51. > :16:56.today but one of his Southampton team mates was more forthcoming.
:16:56. > :17:02.Everyone was very happy for him, everyone was buzzing. We said
:17:02. > :17:07.congratulations to him but it wasn't really a surprise for us because we
:17:07. > :17:09.knew that if he played more than 30 minutes, he would score goals. Most
:17:09. > :17:13.pundits thought Lambert's selection for England was as a stopgap. But
:17:13. > :17:16.with his appetite for goal, who knows? At 31, maybe international
:17:16. > :17:30.life is just beginning for St Rickie. Fantastic. A full
:17:30. > :17:33.Southampton Premier League preview is coming up tomorrow.
:17:33. > :17:37.A Hampshire golfer is into the last 16 of the US Amateur championship
:17:37. > :17:40.after two wins in the match play part of the competition. Neil
:17:40. > :17:42.Raymond has just gone onto the course in his match against
:17:43. > :17:45.Australia's Nathan Holman. You may remember Neil, who plays at
:17:45. > :17:49.Corhampton Golf Club, topped the stroke play leaderboard at the event
:17:49. > :17:57.at Brookline. He is going very well indeed. That is one England—is truly
:17:57. > :18:01.a battle. How about another one? It's the first test match of a
:18:01. > :18:05.three—year match series in the England and Australia over 70s. Is
:18:05. > :18:10.truly were bowled out short time ago. This is the first of a three
:18:10. > :18:18.match series. —— Australia were bowled out. Let's talk to the two
:18:18. > :18:23.captains. Hugh Miller and Gordon Ives. Tell us about these matches,
:18:23. > :18:33.how they've come about. Senior figures involved over the years
:18:33. > :18:37.thought it was a logical move that when the Australians were coming
:18:38. > :18:43.over and invited us to pay test cricket we would take them up on the
:18:43. > :18:48.challenge. —— played test cricket. Gordon, great to have you over
:18:48. > :18:53.here. A big travelling contingent? There's 17 in the squad, plus
:18:53. > :18:59.ladies. We thoroughly enjoyed the hospitality. It's been so fantastic
:18:59. > :19:02.every game we've played. A good one today but unfortunately, one to
:19:02. > :19:07.England and zero to us at the moment but it's going to change in the
:19:07. > :19:11.test, hopefully. Two more test matches to go. We'll turn the
:19:11. > :19:17.tables. We lost the toss. I was going to bat today but it was fair
:19:17. > :19:24.enough. It's a good batting wicket. They would be expecting 250 to get
:19:24. > :19:29.out today. They only got 160 so we're in there for sure! It's been
:19:29. > :19:34.an English summer so far for the Ashes! I have to stop you because we
:19:34. > :19:39.could go on all night. We'll go to the bar in a second. England won the
:19:39. > :19:45.first one, they go to Crawley for the second. I harbour hopes that
:19:45. > :19:50.maybe one day I will play cricket for my country still!
:19:50. > :19:54.There is a future for you but the immediate future is behind you!
:19:54. > :19:57.Do you remember chemistry lessons in school? Getting to grips with Bunsen
:19:57. > :20:01.burners, test tubes and a pipette! In full scale laboratories there's a
:20:01. > :20:04.lot of glass equipment and some of it is very specialised. Professor
:20:04. > :20:07.David Phillips had a unique piece of glassware he used in chemistry
:20:07. > :20:11.demonstrations and when it broke, he turned to Southampton University for
:20:11. > :20:15.help. He joined me earlier on the sofa and the first thing was to
:20:15. > :20:24.reveal what was so special about his glass item. So, this is the item, in
:20:24. > :20:31.fact, which is the unusual piece of glassware. It's a baby!It is and if
:20:31. > :20:37.you look carefully, you can see it is a male baby. This is Mike. It's
:20:37. > :20:43.not the first one you've had, because your accident prone, I
:20:43. > :20:48.understand. I had one for many years, which was made in
:20:48. > :20:53.Southampton, also, and he went with me to a big lecture in Berlin just
:20:53. > :21:01.before Christmas and, alas, did not make it. So we had a funeral in
:21:01. > :21:04.Berlin. Let's bring in the glass—blower. Have you ever been
:21:04. > :21:12.asked to make anything as strange as this? Know, without doubt.It's all
:21:12. > :21:18.hand—blown, isn't it? Is that tricky? Yes. We make each part
:21:18. > :21:24.separately so we made the arms, the legs, the head all separately and
:21:24. > :21:33.then put together. It's putting it all together that is the tricky bit.
:21:33. > :21:36.David, you use it for educating, helping people to understand
:21:36. > :21:41.science, but have you got to have something like that to make this
:21:41. > :21:44.more educating and interesting? You don't have to bid if you can engage
:21:45. > :21:50.your audience with seeing something unusual, it helps. But it does a
:21:50. > :21:55.real experiments so there is some real science here. And, of course,
:21:55. > :22:00.they find this very attractive. The adults as well as the children, I
:22:00. > :22:08.assume? Well, we're all children at heart. The serious side about how
:22:08. > :22:13.you use this is about jaundice in babies, isn't it? Yes, about ten
:22:13. > :22:16.percentage babies are born with jaundice and it really needs to be
:22:16. > :22:21.treated. It was discovered by accident in the mid—1950s that if
:22:21. > :22:25.you use blue light on a baby, it will convert the yellow substance,
:22:25. > :22:30.which is a breakdown product of red blood cells, into a water—soluble
:22:30. > :22:34.form so you can get rid of it in the way that you and I would recognise.
:22:34. > :22:42.How does that manifest itself in your glass baby? This is just a
:22:42. > :22:46.separating phenomenon. He might object to it being described as
:22:46. > :22:50.that. In the legs, I have a fat solution of the authentic material
:22:50. > :22:58.that is the cause of jaundice in newborn babies. Above I have some
:22:58. > :23:02.water. You can see that it will not go in the water. If you radiate this
:23:02. > :23:09.with blue light or ultraviolet light or both, this converts into a form

:23:14. > :23:24.have to take his dummy out. Here is the light. I have to put it there.
:23:24. > :23:28.It takes about two minutes so we need to radiate for about that
:23:28. > :23:34.length of time. So we're going to let that radiate and come back to it
:23:34. > :23:39.in a second. So, you've been doing that for a couple of minutes. That
:23:39. > :23:43.should be long enough, I hope. So now what I have to do is see if the
:23:43. > :23:50.yellow colour will go into the water. I have to mix it. Which you
:23:50. > :23:55.wouldn't do with a normal baby, of course! Don't do this at home! With
:23:55. > :24:01.any luck, it has been long enough that some, if not all, of the yellow
:24:01. > :24:06.colour has gone into the top layer. It has now gone into the water
:24:06. > :24:12.layer, so now little Mike can do exactly what nature intended and get
:24:12. > :24:17.rid of it. That is incredible and it really does show exactly what will
:24:17. > :24:22.happen. I suppose the worrying thing now is, as far as you're concerned,
:24:22. > :24:32.Lee, you can make the baby but what if he wants an adult? I would kindly
:24:32. > :24:41.invite him to go somewhere else! It's fabulous to meet you. Professor
:24:42. > :24:48.David Phillips and Lee Mulholland, thank you. It's fascinating.
:24:48. > :24:57.I loved Lee's face. It was a picture! We go onto the weather now.
:24:57. > :24:59.Sarah is here. Gorgeous again. Yes, we have a mixed bag. Many of us
:24:59. > :25:03.stayed dry. A beautiful butterfly spotted by
:25:03. > :25:06.Beryl Matthews today at Wakehurst Place Gardens, near Ardingly.
:25:06. > :25:09.An action shot of a Canada goose coming into land. Taken by Dan Smith
:25:09. > :25:14.in Midhurst. And a moody feel to this one — taken
:25:14. > :25:19.at the top of the South Downs by Katarina Hutchings.
:25:19. > :25:24.We have had some showers and there are still a few in the mix for this
:25:24. > :25:27.evening. It will fade away, so we'll see dry conditions for a time before
:25:27. > :25:33.we see more wet weather into the early hours. The showers feed
:25:33. > :25:37.through the M4 corridor, easing away later, and then we'll see the cloud
:25:37. > :25:43.building in from the West during the early hours with patchy outbreaks of
:25:43. > :25:48.rain and perhaps some heavy bursts. We start tomorrow with the grey,
:25:48. > :25:59.damp feel and perhaps one or two more heavy bursts in the mix. In the
:25:59. > :26:04.sunshine, feeling pleasant, with highs of 23, but still some showers
:26:04. > :26:08.later in the day. Tomorrow evening, the rain eventually cleared through
:26:08. > :26:13.and we are left with some dry conditions overnight. Temperatures
:26:13. > :26:24.are still muddy and perhaps some mist and Merck. Dry and bright
:26:24. > :26:33.conditions but a band of weather will bring us some windy conditions.
:26:33. > :26:41.The wet weather will sweep through during the latter part of Saturday.
:26:41. > :26:47.Isobars still tightly packed. One or two showers in the mix but still the
:26:47. > :26:49.wind is pretty strong and gusty. We have weekend events to look forward
:26:49. > :26:52.to. For the National Feast of Lanterns
:26:52. > :26:55.on the Somerley Estate in Ringwood it looks like we'll see a dry spell
:26:55. > :26:58.tomorrow evening, as things get glowing. The event runs right
:26:59. > :27:02.through this weekend, so expect some rain at times. And for the Rewind
:27:02. > :27:06.Festival in Henley on Thames, it should be dry for a time on Friday
:27:06. > :27:14.evening, but wellies at the ready for Saturday! We do have the wet
:27:14. > :27:18.weather to come. Take a look at your summary for the next few days.
:27:18. > :27:24.Tomorrow, rain to start, becoming drier into the evening. A bright
:27:24. > :27:28.start to Saturday but the wet weather sweeps in from the West with
:27:28. > :27:32.very strong winds at times, particularly along the coast. Sunday
:27:32. > :27:37.looks blustery with one or two showers in the mix.
:27:37. > :27:43.Tomorrow night, we look into the future, quite literally, about how a
:27:43. > :27:46.pair of glasses in an app could help in the developing world.
