:00:00. > :00:07.Hello, and welcome to South Today from Oxford. In tonight's programme:
:00:08. > :00:11.Killed by a crossbow bolt ` the trial begins of the man accused of
:00:12. > :00:14.being responsible for the death of Darrell Farnham.
:00:15. > :00:20.Also, the red tape that prevents people with disabilities from
:00:21. > :00:23.getting a job. And later on, as the Chancellor
:00:24. > :00:37.visits China, we look at how much the South trades with the country.
:00:38. > :00:42.Good evening. He was shot at point blank range with a crossbow bolt
:00:43. > :00:45.which travelled through his heart. A court heard today how Darrell
:00:46. > :00:49.Farnham from Aylesbury was killed on his own doorstep over a drugs
:00:50. > :00:53.dispute. Russell Gill, who's also from Aylesbury, is accused of
:00:54. > :00:57.carrying out the murder. The jury at Reading Crown Court was told he was
:00:58. > :01:06.angry that a ?6000 debt had not been paid. Emma Vardy reports.
:01:07. > :01:11.The events that led to 42`year`old Darrell Farnham's death took place
:01:12. > :01:16.over the summer on the evening of June the 23rd. The court heard how
:01:17. > :01:20.the defendant, Russell Gill, had had a drugs habit. He took amphetamines
:01:21. > :01:27.and used to buy drugs from Darrell Farnham, and had run up a debt of
:01:28. > :01:31.?6,000. On the day of the murder, he was accused to have made threats to
:01:32. > :01:37.kill Darrell Farnham, and in retaliation, the defendants showed
:01:38. > :01:43.his nephew crossbow, and said, "if Darrell thinks he can shoot me, I'll
:01:44. > :01:49.get him first. If it comes to this, I'll shoot. " The prosecution says
:01:50. > :01:55.the weapons that Russell Gill took with him on that night was a
:01:56. > :02:00.crossbow, and he shot him at point`blank range. Least on Darrell
:02:01. > :02:05.Farnham collapsed on the floor with blood on his chest at his home. They
:02:06. > :02:11.say he began to pull the ball out of his body, and was found lying with
:02:12. > :02:14.it on his stomach in his outstretched arm. The defendant has
:02:15. > :02:18.pleaded not guilty to the charge of murder, and the court heard that he
:02:19. > :02:23.is claiming this was a terrible mistake. He told police he had only
:02:24. > :02:26.gone to Darrell Farnham's house to scare him, but the victim has
:02:27. > :02:32.attacked him during her argument in which the crossbow went off by
:02:33. > :02:36.mistake. The prosecution seeks it attempts to prove that this was a
:02:37. > :02:46.clinical execution of a man who Russell Gill had come to her. The
:02:47. > :02:49.trial concludes next week. A court's been hearing evidence from
:02:50. > :02:53.defence lawyers in the trial of five men accused of accepting stolen
:02:54. > :02:55.metal at a scrap yard in south Oxfordshire. Owner Terence Rogers,
:02:56. > :02:59.his son Simon Rogers, Ian Marshall, Martin Pace and Darren Andrews are
:03:00. > :03:02.all charged with turning a blind eye to undercover police officers who
:03:03. > :03:05.posed as metal thieves at the scrap yard in Nuneham Courtney. They all
:03:06. > :03:08.deny attempting to conceal, disguise, or sell hundreds of kilos
:03:09. > :03:11.of stolen copper cabling last year. The trial continues at Oxford Crown
:03:12. > :03:13.Court. A convicted paedophile from
:03:14. > :03:17.Oxfordshire has been awarded more than ?30,000 after suing his former
:03:18. > :03:20.employers from his prison cell. Robert Wills from Didcot took npower
:03:21. > :03:24.to a tribunal after the company refused to pay him a redundancy
:03:25. > :03:27.settlement. In March, the 36`year`old was jailed for two years
:03:28. > :03:31.after admitting ten charges, including making indecent images of
:03:32. > :03:39.children. Npower says it's disappointed with the result and is
:03:40. > :03:42.deciding its next step. A community group providing work for
:03:43. > :03:45.disabled adults has closed down after just six months, partly
:03:46. > :03:48.because of council red tape. The Aylesbury Project had aimed to be
:03:49. > :03:51.breaking even after three years, but disabled trainees who applied to the
:03:52. > :03:55.council for funding support months ago still haven't received it. And
:03:56. > :04:01.low attendance numbers then made it harder to attract other grants.
:04:02. > :04:04.Jessica Cooper reports. This is the only place where Martin
:04:05. > :04:08.has been able to work His severe learning disabilities have made it
:04:09. > :04:14.difficult for him to get a job He pays to come every week, and his
:04:15. > :04:23.there are day centres, and they can go to the and learn to do
:04:24. > :04:29.photography, take trips, but to be a productive member of society, I
:04:30. > :04:35.can't think of a better place. You're very proud of working here,
:04:36. > :04:39.aren't you? Yes. You like to work. Since it opened in March, The Reuse
:04:40. > :04:42.Shop, used by community groups to get materials, has done well. But
:04:43. > :04:45.the number of disabled trainees using the service hasn't added up,
:04:46. > :04:49.and the cash has run out. Organisers say some clients who've wanted to
:04:50. > :04:57.come haven't been able to because the council was too slow approving
:04:58. > :05:02.their funding. They could have helped by the system becoming a lot
:05:03. > :05:05.more clearer, and we think we've had people since March wanting to come
:05:06. > :05:11.here, and for some reason or another, the application hasn't been
:05:12. > :05:17.processed or at least, we haven't had any outcome. People seem to be
:05:18. > :05:23.still waiting. Buckinghamshire County Council told us and the
:05:24. > :05:27.director of adult services is meeting with the director of the
:05:28. > :05:36.Aylesbury Project. They are going to discuss what happened and see there
:05:37. > :05:39.is a way to keep the project going. The first in a series of public
:05:40. > :05:42.meetings takes place in Banbury tonight to gauge views on where and
:05:43. > :05:46.how Oxfordshire County Council can make millions of pounds in savings.
:05:47. > :05:48.Councillors will outline some of the non`statutory services, like
:05:49. > :05:51.children's centres, that they currently provide ` services which
:05:52. > :05:54.may be scaled back or cut all together to help shave ?61 million
:05:55. > :05:57.from the council budget. Tonight's meeting at Banbury Town Hall is
:05:58. > :05:59.chaired by BBC South Today's political correspondent Peter
:06:00. > :06:03.Henley. Further meetings are planned tomorrow and next week at venues
:06:04. > :06:06.across the county. They ploughed the field and
:06:07. > :06:10.scattered the good seed on the land. Then they tended the plot, watched
:06:11. > :06:13.the wheat grow, harvested it, and saw it ground to make flour. Regular
:06:14. > :06:15.viewers will remember we've been following a special project
:06:16. > :06:19.involving children from Garsingston Primary School. Last week, they
:06:20. > :06:21.baked their own loaf of bread, and finally, today it was the
:06:22. > :06:30.centrepiece for the Harvest Festival. Allen Sinclair reports.
:06:31. > :06:32.For months, this class of five and six`year`olds have tendered their
:06:33. > :06:43.crop, weeding and watering, watching it grow. It's grown so quickly, it's
:06:44. > :06:48.amazing! From tiny to massive! Normally, we'll go to the shop or by
:06:49. > :06:52.shopping on the internet, but there are actually seeing it grow and
:06:53. > :06:57.they're going to eat it, so they see the whole process. After harvesting
:06:58. > :07:02.came threshing the fleet, before sending it on to the mill. Today,
:07:03. > :07:09.months of hard work finally paid off mugger loafs of bread ready for the
:07:10. > :07:15.Harvest Festival. Really happy and proud. Not just me, but for
:07:16. > :07:18.everyone. Everyone in the class. Children don't necessarily get the
:07:19. > :07:23.chance to explore the fields in the way they used to. They've also had
:07:24. > :07:26.the achievement of making unlawful bread and witness the beautiful
:07:27. > :07:31.harvest. I think they are so proud of it may be can't believe they've
:07:32. > :07:36.done it. There are so excited about actually tasting it. Next year, the
:07:37. > :07:43.process will start over again, with a new class getting the chance to
:07:44. > :07:49.learn for their food comes from. `` learn where their food comes from.
:07:50. > :07:52.Onto football, and Oxford United ended their two`month run without a
:07:53. > :07:56.home win at the weekend. Milton Keynes fell victim to League One
:07:57. > :07:58.front runners Orient, but as Ross Heaton reports, Swindon swept aside
:07:59. > :08:01.Rotherham. Swindon have had to wait since the
:08:02. > :08:07.start of the season for their first win on the road, but the record is
:08:08. > :08:12.now over, following a ruthless display at Rotherham. This free kick
:08:13. > :08:18.from Alex Pritchard led to a call, and there was more misery to follow.
:08:19. > :08:24.Massimo Luongo deflected this ball, and in the second half, the goals
:08:25. > :08:30.continued to flow. Nicky Ajose eight scored the school, and Danny and
:08:31. > :08:39.voted off the ground. For goals in this display. `` four goals in this
:08:40. > :08:48.display. The MK dons a load a quality, and another day proved bad,
:08:49. > :08:55.when this when was scored. In league two, it was a day to savour for
:08:56. > :09:00.James Constable against Northampton. He scored the first, and then a
:09:01. > :09:06.penalty to secure a win over Southampton. Oxford's first win
:09:07. > :09:15.since August, means there are only two behind the table leaders.
:09:16. > :09:20.Yesterday, it was a wet and windy ordeal for the runners in the 3/2
:09:21. > :09:25.marathons held in our region. We had a race in Henley`on`Thames. 11,000
:09:26. > :09:28.took part in Swindon's tenth annual event ` that number significantly
:09:29. > :09:31.down on last year. But the organisers of Oxford's Half
:09:32. > :09:35.Marathon, now in its third year, say they were delighted with the turnout
:09:36. > :09:38.there. Over 5000 braved the cold and the rain to pound the city's
:09:39. > :09:40.streets, with serious athletes out alongside fundraisers running for
:09:41. > :09:45.charity, on a course that finished up at the Kassam Stadium. Well done
:09:46. > :09:57.to all who turned out ` spectators too ` a real achievement in such
:09:58. > :10:00.grim weather. That's all from me for the moment. I'll have the headlines
:10:01. > :10:02.at eight and a full bulletin at 10.25. Now more of today's stories
:10:03. > :10:04.nowhere for people to buy food or drink. The developers say they're
:10:05. > :10:07.working to bring a food retailer to the area.
:10:08. > :10:11.Still to come in this evening's South Today: The mystery of Misty.
:10:12. > :10:14.How an expert pieced together a rare fossilised diplodocus dinosaur after
:10:15. > :10:25.it was dug out of quarry in the north west USA.
:10:26. > :10:28.China's grown so rapidly, it hardly seems conceivable that just 20 years
:10:29. > :10:32.ago it was barely on the economic map. Now it's the world's second
:10:33. > :10:38.largest economy behind the United States and is still growing at a
:10:39. > :10:41.rate of seven per cent a year. All this week we'll be looking closely
:10:42. > :10:45.at the China`Britain connection ` as the Chancellor George Osborne visits
:10:46. > :10:49.the country on a trade mission. The UK imports ?30 billion worth of
:10:50. > :10:53.goods a year from China ` that's three times as much as we export.
:10:54. > :10:57.The South East brings in 5.2 billion pounds worth a year ` more than any
:10:58. > :11:02.other part of England outside London. As far as exports go 1.5
:11:03. > :11:07.billion pounds worth of goods go to China. For the south west the scale
:11:08. > :11:11.of trade is much smaller. Imports of ?1.7 billion ` the second smallest
:11:12. > :11:17.in England and the region is the lowest exporter of goods with just
:11:18. > :11:20.?316 million worth heading East. Shipments from Chinese ports account
:11:21. > :11:26.for 60% of the imports coming through Southampton's container
:11:27. > :11:29.terminal. Our business correspondent Alastair Fee headed 20 miles out
:11:30. > :11:45.into the English Channel to meet one consignment coming in.
:11:46. > :11:48.It is several hours before dawn. I am boarding a container ship a few
:11:49. > :11:58.miles off the south coast as it approaches the Isle of Wight will
:11:59. > :12:02.stop. At 365 metres long and 50 metres
:12:03. > :12:08.wide it is among the biggest carnival boats in the world. I've
:12:09. > :12:13.here on deck the scale is absolutely incredible. I have counted seven of
:12:14. > :12:18.these containers are, they are at least the same number below deck.
:12:19. > :12:21.The whole ship carries 30 and a half thousand of these big metal boxes,
:12:22. > :12:26.and these ships are getting bigger all the time. Inside you will find
:12:27. > :12:31.pretty much everything on the high Street, from electrical goods to
:12:32. > :12:34.clothing and toys. Essentially, these ships are bringing in the
:12:35. > :12:40.millions of Christmas presents we will be buying over the next couple
:12:41. > :12:45.of months. It left Shanghai 28 days ago travelling via the Suez Canal
:12:46. > :12:47.and the Mediterranean. The sea mist has drastically reduced visibility,
:12:48. > :12:56.which means this massive container ship is edging slowly and carefully
:12:57. > :13:00.into Southampton. More than 40% of the UK's secret with China comes
:13:01. > :13:06.into Southampton docks. Here the workaround clocked seven days a
:13:07. > :13:10.week. The ships are getting bigger and every year there is more of
:13:11. > :13:14.them. In 2011 there were 118 stops here by vessels of this size. By
:13:15. > :13:19.next year that will have risen to over 263.
:13:20. > :13:22.The way things are looking at the moment with China's trade coming
:13:23. > :13:27.through like it does, everywhere you look, there is something Chinese
:13:28. > :13:31.investment going on. We are open for business all the time.
:13:32. > :13:34.To meet demand a new 500 metre versus being constructed on the sea
:13:35. > :13:38.bed is being dredged to make it wider and deeper. It is an
:13:39. > :13:43.interesting model here at the port being able to see the impact of
:13:44. > :13:47.imports and exports to the UK. This is a good barometer here, and the
:13:48. > :13:50.growth we are seeing in those key sectors give some indication of how
:13:51. > :13:58.important China is. As the Chinese middle classes grow,
:13:59. > :14:02.so does the demand for cars. Last year nearly 20,000 BMW minis were
:14:03. > :14:09.shipped overseas, making this the fourth biggest export market. This
:14:10. > :14:14.logistics firm is entirely reliant on Chinese made goods. They empty
:14:15. > :14:19.one container are and supply most of the big high street names.
:14:20. > :14:22.The last thing you want is to end up with a pile of stock you can't sell,
:14:23. > :14:25.so you buy it, hopefully, five minutes before you sell it. That
:14:26. > :14:30.means that Chinese manufacturing has to be quick, efficient, and turn the
:14:31. > :14:37.orders around in a very short timescale. And the Chinese are very
:14:38. > :14:38.good at that. It all ends up here `50% of everything sold a
:14:39. > :14:42.high`street comes through Southampton docks.
:14:43. > :14:46.Most things seem to be made in China now, doesn't matter whether it's
:14:47. > :14:49.next, doesn't matter whether labels are, this into becoming from the
:14:50. > :14:52.same place. I prefer to be buying something
:14:53. > :14:55.British, but obviously a lot of countries have stop making things
:14:56. > :14:59.you know. This is peak season and continues
:15:00. > :15:02.well into November, as much as 80% of its cargo was from China and will
:15:03. > :15:09.eventually be sold all over the country.
:15:10. > :15:12.The Port of Southampton doesn't just import consumer goods, of course. An
:15:13. > :15:15.enormous amount of food comes through the docks every year.
:15:16. > :15:34.Tonight's Inside Out looks at how health inspectors at the port makes
:15:35. > :15:38.sure it's fit for consumption. What's been called the crown jewels
:15:39. > :15:41.of Stonehenge ` a collection of ancient golden artefacts ` has gone
:15:42. > :15:44.on permanent public display for the first time today. The ear rings,
:15:45. > :15:48.brooches and other treasures are now housed in a new high security series
:15:49. > :15:51.of galleries in the Wiltshire Museum in Devizes. They were unearthed in
:15:52. > :15:55.the 18th and 19th centuries and this is the first time the public has had
:15:56. > :15:59.permanent access to them. Tony is here for the sport. We
:16:00. > :16:05.didn't expect you to be here. I should have been a Birmingham
:16:06. > :16:10.because it is a second like. Pool are any great position. But earlier
:16:11. > :16:12.today lots of rain in the Midlands, and they took an early call to
:16:13. > :16:17.postpone it. It will happen tomorrow.
:16:18. > :16:22.Disappointing for them. It should happen tomorrow and I will be there.
:16:23. > :16:26.7pm start tomorrow. They have the greyhound racing in Birmingham. It's
:16:27. > :16:32.not easy to cover speedway tracks. If you get a lot of rain, it is
:16:33. > :16:35.difficult. So the Pirates will have to wait another day to consolidate
:16:36. > :16:38.their place as Britain's top speedway team after the postponement
:16:39. > :16:42.of tonight's Elite League Grand final. The Pirates last lifted the
:16:43. > :16:46.trophy in 2011. They were due to race in the grand final second leg
:16:47. > :16:49.against the Birmingham Brummies in Birmingham tonight. However after an
:16:50. > :16:51.inspection, the track was judged too waterlogged to be safe, and the
:16:52. > :16:55.meeting will now take place tomorrow. The Pirates are firm
:16:56. > :16:58.favourites to win taking in a huge 21 point lead from their home leg at
:16:59. > :17:01.Wimborne Road last week. Kevin Pietersen was among the first
:17:02. > :17:07.to voice his approval as Surrey named Graham Ford as their new head
:17:08. > :17:10.coach today. Ford has coached Kent, and internationally has worked with
:17:11. > :17:16.South Africa and Natal, where he's been credited as bringing on
:17:17. > :17:20.Pietersen in his youth. He most recently led Sri Lanka to the final
:17:21. > :17:23.of the World Twenty20 and secured a one day series win over South
:17:24. > :17:30.Africa. He replaces Chris Adams who was sacked in June after a
:17:31. > :17:34.disappointing season. Portsmouth completed a good week
:17:35. > :17:41.with a point at Plymouth in league two on Saturday. They were behind in
:17:42. > :17:44.the West Country when the home side took an early lead through Conor
:17:45. > :17:47.Hourihane who capitalised on a mistake by Pompey right back Yassin
:17:48. > :17:50.Mootakill. The impressive Jed Wallace scored a fine equaliser as
:17:51. > :17:53.Portsmouth got a grip on the game and controlled long periods. They
:17:54. > :17:56.couldn't add to that effort and it finished 1`1. Pompey currently 15th
:17:57. > :17:59.in the table. It was supposed to be part of the
:18:00. > :18:02.Olympic Legacy. The Sail Laser Centre on Portland on the site of
:18:03. > :18:07.the 2012 Olympic sailing venue provided opportunities for people to
:18:08. > :18:11.get involved in sailing. It included the popular 'sail for a Fiver'
:18:12. > :18:15.scheme designed to get more children onto the water. However, as we
:18:16. > :18:25.reported on Friday, the centre is to close. John Ayres has been looking
:18:26. > :18:28.at where that leaves the legacy. The Olympics will be remembered as
:18:29. > :18:32.one of the greatest events ever to grace Dorset. There were huge
:18:33. > :18:35.celebrations when Weymouth and Portsmouth were selected as the
:18:36. > :18:40.sailing venue, and then when London was selected it self full stop one
:18:41. > :18:43.word that we occurred was legacy. I think the legacy the Olympics will
:18:44. > :18:48.leave will be phenomenal. Really happy.
:18:49. > :18:52.It is absolutely amazing. Fantastic news. It is the biggest thing that's
:18:53. > :18:57.happened in sport for as long as I can remember it is a tremendous
:18:58. > :18:59.feeling and we are so excited. We can't contain ourselves. It is
:19:00. > :19:05.fantastic. Part of that legacy has been the
:19:06. > :19:10.these are sailing Centre. It has been providing easy access to the
:19:11. > :19:14.sport, encouraging people to try the schemes such as sale for a fiver.
:19:15. > :19:19.But the company is restructuring its business and will leave here in
:19:20. > :19:21.December. Sail Laser Centre Wimmer says it will honour all its
:19:22. > :19:25.obligations until it's closing date in December. It says it will work
:19:26. > :19:30.closely with the National sailing Academy to ensure that the
:19:31. > :19:33.transition moves smoothly. 5000 sailors have been through the centre
:19:34. > :19:36.of this year alone. Work is underway to find a new operator to take it
:19:37. > :19:40.over. John Ayres reporting. Paralympians
:19:41. > :19:43.from the south are among athletes who will receive lottery funding for
:19:44. > :19:46.the next year following an announcement by British Athletics
:19:47. > :19:48.today. Four hundred metre silver medallist ` Beth Woodward from
:19:49. > :19:52.Ferndown will receive the highest level of funding, as will world
:19:53. > :19:54.eight hundred metre champion Paul Blake from Dorchester. Portsmouth
:19:55. > :19:58.sprinter Olivia Breen has also been included in the second tier group of
:19:59. > :20:01.lottery funding. Three athletes from Oxfordshire have
:20:02. > :20:04.also received the top level of funding, the podium programme.
:20:05. > :20:07.Hannah England and Lawrence Clarke have been chosen ` as has Milton
:20:08. > :20:12.Keynes' Greg Rutherford ` a gold medalist in the long jump at London
:20:13. > :20:15.2012. The south's ice hockey teams
:20:16. > :20:18.continue to dominate the top half of the Premier League table. The
:20:19. > :20:23.Basingstoke Bison led from the first period in their home clash against
:20:24. > :20:27.the Telford Tigers on Saturday. It ended in a 5`2 victory. However,
:20:28. > :20:32.they couldn't hang on to their winning ways at Peterborough
:20:33. > :20:36.yesterday where they lost 5`4. The results leave the Bison fourth in
:20:37. > :20:39.the table but with a game in hand over the teams above them. The
:20:40. > :20:42.Guildford Flames are still second after a double header against top
:20:43. > :20:45.ranking Manchester which resulted in home wins for each side. Swindon and
:20:46. > :20:57.Milton Keynes Lightning up there too. The Bracknell Bees are
:20:58. > :21:00.currently bottom in tenth place. Sorry I still looking for their
:21:01. > :21:05.first win of the season after a third straight defeat yesterday, the
:21:06. > :21:11.fixture against the Durham Wildcats ended any 100 points to 79 points
:21:12. > :21:17.defeat. The scoreline tight at times, but they could never quite
:21:18. > :21:20.get back into it. All change at Surrey United with the change of
:21:21. > :21:23.name. A lot of new players as well the season. It looks like it will
:21:24. > :21:26.take a little bit of time for them to bed in to the BDL. We are
:21:27. > :21:32.hopeful. Thanks very much. A great story for
:21:33. > :21:35.you next. We have been talking about this all day in the office today.
:21:36. > :21:38.The first UK auction of a large dinosaur skeleton is due to happen
:21:39. > :21:41.in West Sussex next month. A 17`metre diplodocus is going under
:21:42. > :21:52.the hammer at Summers Place Auctions in Billingshurst.
:21:53. > :21:55.I was praying you had the last sentence to read there so that I
:21:56. > :21:58.didn't have to say it. Relatively complete skeletons of the creature
:21:59. > :22:01.are extremely rare, and BBC South was given exclusive access as it was
:22:02. > :22:08.assembled. Mark Sanders watched the monster take shape.
:22:09. > :22:15.It was one of the largest creatures ever to pound the earth, today
:22:16. > :22:18.cellophane wrapped, ready to go. This is the beginning of a Jurassic
:22:19. > :22:24.jigsaw puzzle. Constructing this diplodocus, nicknamed Misty, is a
:22:25. > :22:33.mammoth task. Overseeing it is Aart Walen. How long have you been living
:22:34. > :22:40.with this creature? This lady, this mystery lady,
:22:41. > :22:42.mysterious is how it's going to be, I'd be living with it for more than
:22:43. > :22:45.one year. A relatively complete Diplodocus
:22:46. > :22:52.skeleton is extremely rare and this 17 metre female specimen joins only
:22:53. > :22:56.a handful of other known examples. Before its assembly in the UK, each
:22:57. > :23:09.piece had to be prepared in Aart's fossil workshop in the Netherlands.
:23:10. > :23:14.To assemble all the pieces, to say, this piece should be there. When I
:23:15. > :23:20.dig, it will ask me in the quarry, where does this come from? I know
:23:21. > :23:27.nearly each piece, which dinosaur and which part of the body it comes
:23:28. > :23:31.from full stop. This is a giant of the late Jurassic
:23:32. > :23:33.Period it roamed in what is now western North America. Misty's
:23:34. > :23:39.remains were discovered in Wyoming and excavated.
:23:40. > :23:48.It seems to have come from a drying up what all. Large dinosaurs went to
:23:49. > :23:51.drink and got stuck in the mud, and predatory dinosaurs jumped on them
:23:52. > :23:53.and they all got stuck in the mud. Because it was mud, they all became
:23:54. > :23:57.fossilised. When shaping the Skelton, Aart was
:23:58. > :24:05.anxious to try to give the long dead creature life.
:24:06. > :24:10.It is stone. It is bones. And it is 160 million years old. I've tried to
:24:11. > :24:14.make it a live by giving it a movement, and I give it a swing in
:24:15. > :24:21.the body to say that it moves. If you really look at it, it doesn't
:24:22. > :24:25.stand. It has gentle... It is a lady, so I give it a gentle
:24:26. > :24:28.movement. The auction estimate for Misty is
:24:29. > :24:32.?400,000 to ?600, 000 pounds. Getting the money to buy it is one
:24:33. > :24:41.thing, having the room to display it is quite another.
:24:42. > :24:47.Incredible. It wouldn't fit in my living room, that's for sure.
:24:48. > :24:51.Extraordinary. Alexis is here with the weather. It
:24:52. > :24:53.has been miserable out there. We have of sunshine but also hefty
:24:54. > :24:57.showers. John Tweddell took this photo of his
:24:58. > :24:59.dog on an early morning walk in Emsworth.
:25:00. > :25:02.Alberto Ferrone took this autumnal photo of horse chestnut leaves
:25:03. > :25:07.changing colour in Swanmore in Hampshire.
:25:08. > :25:10.And Robert Stidworthy took this photo of the cruise ship
:25:11. > :25:17.Independence of the Seas under grey skies in Southampton.
:25:18. > :25:21.A mixed picture this week. We can expect some sunshine but there will
:25:22. > :25:26.be heavy rain at times. And it turns milder around midweek. We have the
:25:27. > :25:30.weather front pushing in from Wednesday. Behind that weather front
:25:31. > :25:34.will be milder air. Temperatures return to the seasonal average.
:25:35. > :25:40.Nearly dry tonight. We may see mist and fog patches. The clearing skies
:25:41. > :25:45.are more likely that further south and west you are. North Dorset and
:25:46. > :25:48.Wiltshire over Salisbury Plains may be some dense fog patches with
:25:49. > :25:52.temperatures falling to six up to eight Celsius. In dry start
:25:53. > :25:56.tomorrow, but mist and fog may linger for much of the morning with
:25:57. > :26:00.light winds, it will be slow to budge but gradually clearing to
:26:01. > :26:03.allow for sunny spells in the afternoon. In the sunshine,
:26:04. > :26:09.temperatures two or three degrees below the average. In dry end to
:26:10. > :26:14.tomorrow night. One or two showers for Northern areas. We will see
:26:15. > :26:19.clear skies, and that will allow mist and fog to follow in the usual
:26:20. > :26:27.spots. You can see the weather front waiting here. That rain band will
:26:28. > :26:30.push its way through, moving north and east through the course of the
:26:31. > :26:34.day on Wednesday. Some heavy bursts and there, but once it disappears we
:26:35. > :26:38.will see sunny spells to end the day. Some late evening sunshine on
:26:39. > :26:44.offer. There will be some sunshine tomorrow, after the mist clears. It
:26:45. > :26:46.could linger for much of the morning and winds will be fairly light, not
:26:47. > :26:52.allowing the mist to lift very quickly. Wednesday, heavy rainfall
:26:53. > :26:56.at times. That will move through with brisk winds, and once it does
:26:57. > :27:01.we will see sunny spells develop thereafter. Thursday is a mixture.
:27:02. > :27:06.Winds will be brisk, sunny spells and scattered showers. Friday, rain
:27:07. > :27:14.at first but a slow improving picture. Wind still brisk.
:27:15. > :27:15.I give you much. That's all from us for now. We're back at 10:25pm. Have
:27:16. > :27:23.a good evening.
