Hello and welcome to South Today from Oxford. In tonight's programme: | :00:09. | :00:13. | |
Accused of lying to police over the murder of a wealthy businesswoman. | :00:14. | :00:16. | |
Patricia Goodband's body was found at her home. Two women deny covering | :00:17. | :00:20. | |
up for the man accused of killing her. | :00:21. | :00:21. | |
Also tonight: The dramatic rise in people using food banks. Demand has | :00:22. | :00:25. | |
gone up by a third in the last year with claims the Government's welfare | :00:26. | :00:28. | |
reforms are partly to blame. And later on: Back on their feet, | :00:29. | :00:32. | |
the patients in their 80s and 90s undergoing hip replacements. | :00:33. | :00:47. | |
Good evening. Two women accused of lying to police over the death of a | :00:48. | :00:50. | |
businesswoman from Buckinghamshire have been giving evidence in court. | :00:51. | :00:52. | |
76`year`old Patricia Goodband's body was found at her home near Aylesbury | :00:53. | :00:56. | |
in January. She'd died of head injuries. Her business partner | :00:57. | :00:58. | |
Christopher Symons has been charged with her murder but denies any | :00:59. | :01:01. | |
wrongdoing. They all deny the charges. Adina Campbell has spent | :01:02. | :01:08. | |
the day at Reading Crown Court. The court today has been hearing | :01:09. | :01:14. | |
from two women linked to Mr Symons, Jennifer Creasey, a woman who has | :01:15. | :01:20. | |
been having an affair with over the last year or so. Her and another | :01:21. | :01:25. | |
woman are charged with perverting the course of justice. Ms Creasey | :01:26. | :01:31. | |
was asked how she met Mr Symons. Before that she spoke about her | :01:32. | :01:34. | |
marriage to her first husband and said it had been an abuse of one and | :01:35. | :01:37. | |
that he had a temper. He did not want to know her NAV, not leaving | :01:38. | :01:44. | |
sexually. When it came to Mr Symons, she said he was good fun and good | :01:45. | :01:50. | |
company and that she always what the state and narrow. She kept a diary | :01:51. | :01:54. | |
of their relationship over the years of the phone calls they had made. | :01:55. | :01:58. | |
When she found out about his arrest she could not believe it and she was | :01:59. | :02:02. | |
so cross to think that he could have done something like that. The jury | :02:03. | :02:07. | |
has been hearing evidence from Kathleen Adams, Christopher Symons | :02:08. | :02:11. | |
sister and she spoke for some time about a phone call that was made | :02:12. | :02:14. | |
between herself and conjecture Goodband, days before Patricia was | :02:15. | :02:20. | |
reported missing `` Patricia Goodband. It seemed that Patricia | :02:21. | :02:27. | |
was in a bad mood and had a lot of things to get off of her chest. She | :02:28. | :02:35. | |
was reminiscing about her past. When Kathleen had found out that | :02:36. | :02:37. | |
Christopher had been arrested and when she was questioned by police | :02:38. | :02:41. | |
she said she had lots of other things on her mind around that time | :02:42. | :02:46. | |
because a few days before that her husband Bill had died. Mr Symons | :02:47. | :02:49. | |
denies murder and another man has been charged with obstructing the | :02:50. | :02:55. | |
course of justice. He also has been charged with possession of a | :02:56. | :02:59. | |
firearm. The trial will continue. A student has died following an | :03:00. | :03:02. | |
accident at an Oxford university college. 21`year`old Conor Robinson | :03:03. | :03:05. | |
was in his second year at Magdalen College. He was found with a head | :03:06. | :03:09. | |
injury last Tuesday and taken to the John Radcliffe Hospital where he | :03:10. | :03:11. | |
died yesterday. Jessica Cooper reports. | :03:12. | :03:19. | |
Conor Robinson had been studying English at Magdalen College. It was | :03:20. | :03:25. | |
late at Saturday night that an ambulance was called after he | :03:26. | :03:27. | |
suffered a serious head injury and which the college described as an | :03:28. | :03:32. | |
accidental fall. He was taken to the John Radcliffe Hospital when he was | :03:33. | :03:37. | |
treated in intensive care but after a week of treatment he did. The | :03:38. | :03:41. | |
college has paid tribute to him and described him as a popular and | :03:42. | :03:45. | |
promising student and said the whole college is greatly saddened by his | :03:46. | :03:50. | |
death. Conor Robinson, from County Durham, was a talented actor and a | :03:51. | :03:55. | |
member of the national Youth Theatre and had been involved and the | :03:56. | :03:59. | |
opening ceremonies of the London Olympics in 2012. Tonight the | :04:00. | :04:04. | |
national youth theatre have told us that he was a very great and | :04:05. | :04:07. | |
talented young man with everything to look forward to in life. Thames | :04:08. | :04:12. | |
Valley Police is investigating this death but say the Arnotts treating | :04:13. | :04:15. | |
it as a specialist. Tonight 's staff and students at this college are | :04:16. | :04:20. | |
trying to come to terms with what happened one week ago and the flat | :04:21. | :04:25. | |
above the college is flying at half`mast. | :04:26. | :04:35. | |
The numbers of people going to food banks in our region has gone up by | :04:36. | :04:39. | |
almost a third in the last year according to the charity that runs | :04:40. | :04:43. | |
them, the Trussell Group. It says from April to September last year | :04:44. | :04:46. | |
its Swindon food bank helped more than 2,200 people. This year that's | :04:47. | :04:49. | |
risen to more than 3,200. The charity says similar rises have been | :04:50. | :04:53. | |
seen in Banbury and Bicester. Paul Barltrop reports. | :04:54. | :04:55. | |
He's worked most of his life, but for the last eight months Graham | :04:56. | :04:58. | |
Rideout's been unemployed and on benefits. However, after missing an | :04:59. | :05:01. | |
appointment the Swindon Job Centre halted payments: I have found it is | :05:02. | :05:04. | |
horrendously difficult. Obstacles are put in front of you. People are | :05:05. | :05:09. | |
not helping you, not communicating with you. | :05:10. | :05:12. | |
So he turned for help to the Swindon food bank. Donated supplies are | :05:13. | :05:15. | |
gathered to feed ever`increasing numbers. If it was not for the | :05:16. | :05:20. | |
amount of food that we take in at harvest time we would struggle. | :05:21. | :05:28. | |
However, our demand was 22% up on last year. | :05:29. | :05:30. | |
They distribute food ` enough for three days ` to those, like Graham, | :05:31. | :05:35. | |
given vouchers by agencies. I have had to come to the food bank and you | :05:36. | :05:39. | |
can only come twice. I have had to sell some of my property to keep | :05:40. | :05:44. | |
myself alive and to pay for things. The help is temporary, tiding people | :05:45. | :05:49. | |
over while they get back on track. I did not have any food or anything. | :05:50. | :05:58. | |
This is my only point of call. They have given me lots and lots of food. | :05:59. | :06:01. | |
It is good. It's not just Swindon, the West has | :06:02. | :06:04. | |
dozens of food banks, including in places like Cirencester and Street. | :06:05. | :06:08. | |
The growth has been so rapid the charity is calling for a government | :06:09. | :06:11. | |
inquiry. We are the seventh richest nation in the world and it is | :06:12. | :06:14. | |
scandalous that so many people are finding themselves with such a deep | :06:15. | :06:19. | |
difficulty. A lot of the reasons behind this are problems with our | :06:20. | :06:24. | |
social security system and with the welfare system changes that have not | :06:25. | :06:29. | |
been implemented effectively. They point to the under occupancy | :06:30. | :06:32. | |
charge, big cuts in crisis loans that help people through | :06:33. | :06:35. | |
emergencies, and a sharp rise in temporary stops to benefits. Then | :06:36. | :06:37. | |
there are economic factors like falling wages and rising prices. But | :06:38. | :06:44. | |
there's also the sheer increase in food banks: 400 nationally with two | :06:45. | :06:47. | |
or three more opening every week. Back in Swindon, Graham is trying to | :06:48. | :06:50. | |
get his benefits sorted. Until then he'll go on taking charity. It is | :06:51. | :06:55. | |
very degrading. I do not want to do it but I must do it. He's just one | :06:56. | :06:59. | |
of hundreds of thousands turning to food banks in modern Britain. | :07:00. | :07:08. | |
There have been calls for a local referendum to try to raise the | :07:09. | :07:11. | |
amount people in Oxfordshire pay in council tax. It was one of the ideas | :07:12. | :07:15. | |
put forward at a packed County Hall last night as councillors held their | :07:16. | :07:18. | |
second public meeting over spending cuts. A rise could reduce some of | :07:19. | :07:22. | |
the cuts, but the council said it would cost ?500,000 to stage a vote. | :07:23. | :07:25. | |
Rail passengers travelling through Swindon and Gloucestershire are | :07:26. | :07:28. | |
facing delays after a derailment. A freight container came off the track | :07:29. | :07:31. | |
in Gloucester early this morning. A team from the Rail Accident | :07:32. | :07:34. | |
Investigation Branch has been at the scene, but repairs to the line are | :07:35. | :07:38. | |
not expected to be completed before Sunday. | :07:39. | :07:41. | |
More than 120 schools in our region will be closed or only partially | :07:42. | :07:45. | |
open tomorrow as two teaching unions go on strike. It's part of national | :07:46. | :07:48. | |
action being taken by the National Union of Teachers and the NASUWT in | :07:49. | :07:52. | |
their dispute over pay, pensions and workload. Head teachers and parents | :07:53. | :07:55. | |
have been planning for tomorrow, as Victoria Cook reports. | :07:56. | :08:01. | |
Schools say they will try to stay open if they have enough staff. For | :08:02. | :08:05. | |
some though, the school will have to completely shut for the day. One | :08:06. | :08:10. | |
opening partially is the Bartholomew School in Eynsham. It is a difficult | :08:11. | :08:20. | |
decision which staff have made. As a school what we try to do is give | :08:21. | :08:24. | |
parents as much notice as possible to minimise disruption. | :08:25. | :08:27. | |
In September, the Government introduced performance`related wages | :08:28. | :08:29. | |
for teachers ` they'll only progress up the pay scales if they meet | :08:30. | :08:32. | |
certain standards, something the unions say is a worrying move. | :08:33. | :08:42. | |
Now we would be looking at working competitively within the schools so | :08:43. | :08:47. | |
that my next pay increase might depend on my colleagues not doing so | :08:48. | :08:51. | |
well and their children not doing so well. That is not any bid to run an | :08:52. | :08:58. | |
education system. Strike action also affects the parents as well as the | :08:59. | :09:02. | |
students and their teachers. Regardless of their support for the | :09:03. | :09:05. | |
unions, tomorrow they will have to look after their children at home | :09:06. | :09:12. | |
and means they cannot work. The children must go to school. If we | :09:13. | :09:18. | |
keep the children of school we get told off or get a fine. It is | :09:19. | :09:20. | |
hypocritical. The Department for Education said it | :09:21. | :09:23. | |
was disappointed with the unions striking over performance`related | :09:24. | :09:43. | |
pay. It said... The unions ? say until the Government listens to | :09:44. | :09:45. | |
teachers' concerns they can't rule out further strike days. | :09:46. | :09:49. | |
That's all from me for the moment. I'll be back at 10:25pm. Now more of | :09:50. | :09:51. | |
today's stories with Sally Taylor. this works wonderfully. Now it seems | :09:52. | :10:03. | |
the yurt's days may be numbered. The family may have to move on. | :10:04. | :10:11. | |
Still to come in this evening's South Today: What's in a name? | :10:12. | :10:14. | |
Quite a lot for these residents. Find out why a little later. | :10:15. | :10:23. | |
Surgeons in Southampton say they're performing a record number of hip | :10:24. | :10:26. | |
replacement operations on patients in their 90s and even into their | :10:27. | :10:29. | |
hundreds. One patient who received a new hip was 105 years old. Advances | :10:30. | :10:32. | |
in anaesthesia and recovery methods have made the treatment more | :10:33. | :10:35. | |
available to older, frailer patients. Our health correspondent, | :10:36. | :10:45. | |
David Fenton, reports. Betty has had a nasty fall and is | :10:46. | :10:48. | |
about to get a new hip under local anaesthetic. They are awake | :10:49. | :10:53. | |
immediately after the operation. They can have a drink and something | :10:54. | :10:56. | |
to eat straightaway after the operation. It helps them, we are | :10:57. | :11:02. | |
able to mobilise patients much more quickly afterwards. Betty's | :11:03. | :11:10. | |
operation has started. Hip fractures often need to be built with very | :11:11. | :11:17. | |
quickly. For elderly patients, they can be particularly dangerous. They | :11:18. | :11:21. | |
know that they have had a hip fracture, which is a | :11:22. | :11:26. | |
life`threatening event. If they are up and walking on the day of the | :11:27. | :11:32. | |
event, they have a boost. Betty is doing well. She is still awake but | :11:33. | :11:37. | |
can't feel anything. In the past, people could spin two weeks in | :11:38. | :11:41. | |
hospital after a hip replacement. These days, some are up and walking | :11:42. | :11:47. | |
within hours and many go home after just a week. Eve on is 92. She broke | :11:48. | :11:53. | |
her hip walking home after a game of Scrabble. Her priority now is | :11:54. | :11:56. | |
getting well, getting home as soon as possible. When I fell, I thought, | :11:57. | :12:03. | |
oh, dear, this is the beginning of the end. I didn't want to end my | :12:04. | :12:09. | |
life like that! When old people fall, at my age, they usually break | :12:10. | :12:14. | |
something. Some patients find it easier than others. This woman was | :12:15. | :12:19. | |
walking just two hours after a fall and a hip replacement, and laughing | :12:20. | :12:24. | |
about it. Betty is just beginning her exercises. But, 24 hours after | :12:25. | :12:31. | |
her up or Asian, she will be up and out of bed and walking around. `` | :12:32. | :12:41. | |
her operation. A health care assistant accused of | :12:42. | :12:44. | |
sexual activity with a female patient who had a mental disorder at | :12:45. | :12:47. | |
a West Sussex hospital has been found not guilty by a jury at | :12:48. | :12:50. | |
Brighton Crown Court. Sajin Panikkassery, who's 29 and from | :12:51. | :12:53. | |
Chichester, was working as a health care assistant at St Richard's | :12:54. | :12:56. | |
Hospital in the city. The court had heard that the patient in question | :12:57. | :12:59. | |
had made similar allegations about other men in the past. | :13:00. | :13:08. | |
All this week we're looking at the South's connections with China. | :13:09. | :13:11. | |
Tonight we're looking at science and technology, and we're looking to the | :13:12. | :13:13. | |
stars. Government Minister David Willetts has just announced ?7 | :13:14. | :13:16. | |
million of funding for collaboration between the two countries. That adds | :13:17. | :13:20. | |
to the ?47 million already spent on joint projects. Even those figures | :13:21. | :13:22. | |
are dwarfed by the business generated for firms in the South | :13:23. | :13:25. | |
already working with China. Among them is Surrey Satellites Technology | :13:26. | :13:28. | |
Limited, which currently has a contract worth ?120 millionto work | :13:29. | :13:31. | |
with the Chinese. Sarah Cruddas reports. | :13:32. | :13:43. | |
They might not look like much but these tiny circuits made in | :13:44. | :13:47. | |
Guildford helped to play a big part in all of this. China's space | :13:48. | :13:53. | |
programme, rapidly becoming more advanced. The company is one of 50 | :13:54. | :14:00. | |
UK companies elaborating with China on science projects. It goes back to | :14:01. | :14:08. | |
about 1993. They said they plan over the next 15 years to develop it. And | :14:09. | :14:14. | |
goodness, how they have succeeded. This is what we call a structure | :14:15. | :14:20. | |
model. Here, they make satellites to be used by the Chinese. We hope that | :14:21. | :14:26. | |
when the satellites are laws, that they will be as successful as the | :14:27. | :14:32. | |
previous ones. You might not think Britain has a space programme, but | :14:33. | :14:37. | |
actually it is worth more than ?9 billion to the economy. The hope is | :14:38. | :14:43. | |
that by 2030 that number will sit at around 40 billion. It will be hugged | :14:44. | :14:50. | |
by companies such as this, who are collaborating with China and | :14:51. | :14:52. | |
creating more jobs in science and technology. For the world's | :14:53. | :14:57. | |
fastest`growing economy, innovation plays a huge part. For the UK, | :14:58. | :15:01. | |
working together could bring big benefits. There is no proper in the | :15:02. | :15:08. | |
world that can be solved by one group of scientists are working in | :15:09. | :15:12. | |
one culture. China has a large space programme. We are growing our space | :15:13. | :15:18. | |
programme. We're looking at ways to participate, perhaps with British | :15:19. | :15:23. | |
experiments on Chinese missions. Across the south, there are several | :15:24. | :15:25. | |
companies linking up with China on different science projects. We have | :15:26. | :15:31. | |
been involved with the Chinese for 40 years. We have been aiding the | :15:32. | :15:34. | |
ability of Chinese scientists and British scientists to get together | :15:35. | :15:38. | |
and share their knowledge of astronomy and to do the same for | :15:39. | :15:43. | |
companies. It is too soon to tell what the overall economic benefits | :15:44. | :15:48. | |
will leave. But for Martin, his eyes are set on some big targets. They | :15:49. | :15:52. | |
will go to the moon before long. They will launch their first probe | :15:53. | :15:57. | |
to Mars. We will hopefully have some science collaborations on the | :15:58. | :15:59. | |
instruments, perhaps, when the time comes. All this gives potential for | :16:00. | :16:03. | |
new technology and jobs in the South. | :16:04. | :16:06. | |
And tomorrow night we're in the Thames Valley, finding out why | :16:07. | :16:08. | |
Berkshire's silicon valley is slowly becoming recognised in China as a | :16:09. | :16:21. | |
place to do business. Next year marks the centenary of the | :16:22. | :16:24. | |
outbreak of the First World War, and the BBC is planning the biggest | :16:25. | :16:27. | |
project ever commissioned to commemorate it. To tell that story, | :16:28. | :16:30. | |
we need your help. Here's Bob Everett with more. | :16:31. | :16:33. | |
Millions of people died in what was known as the war to end all wars. | :16:34. | :16:37. | |
The four`year conflict from 1914 until 1918 changed life in this | :16:38. | :16:41. | |
country forever. The BBC plans to mark the anniversary with a series | :16:42. | :16:44. | |
of programmes and features, dramas and documentaries, across | :16:45. | :16:52. | |
television, radio and online. And as part of that, we'll be telling the | :16:53. | :16:56. | |
stories which affected us here in the South. The people and the places | :16:57. | :17:00. | |
whose stories may never have been told before, giving them a voice, | :17:01. | :17:04. | |
and ensuring their stories are left for generations to come. | :17:05. | :17:10. | |
Film footage from the time gives us an insight. Here are Indian soldiers | :17:11. | :17:15. | |
going through a physical drill in the New Forest. British and | :17:16. | :17:20. | |
Australian troops leaving Weymouth. The Expeditionary force leaving | :17:21. | :17:24. | |
Southampton. And here's Queen Mary reviewing troops in Winchester. | :17:25. | :17:29. | |
We'd like to hear your family stories, from those in local | :17:30. | :17:31. | |
regiments who saw the horror of battle at the front, those who were | :17:32. | :17:35. | |
involved in the war at sea, and those who were part of the newest | :17:36. | :17:39. | |
weapon on the battlefield ` the war in the air. | :17:40. | :17:46. | |
Of course, it wasn't just those on the front line. Millions of people | :17:47. | :17:51. | |
were part of the war effort at home, some from a military perspective, | :17:52. | :17:53. | |
others who ensured daily life could carry on. | :17:54. | :17:59. | |
Do you have stories from the First World War which have shaped the | :18:00. | :18:03. | |
lives of your family? Have you got letters or diaries or photos which | :18:04. | :18:08. | |
bring those stories to life? If so, we'd love to hear from you. You can | :18:09. | :18:15. | |
email the programme. Or you can post comments on our Facebook page. | :18:16. | :18:16. | |
email the programme. Or you can post comments on And you can find out | :18:17. | :18:20. | |

Don't forget, we need your help to tell us the story. Please get in | :18:37. | :18:43. | |
touch. On to sport. Chris is here. Some breaking news about ready | :18:44. | :18:49. | |
football club? The chairman is going to be staying | :18:50. | :18:55. | |
on for another Schumacher years. `` another two years. There are | :18:56. | :18:59. | |
takeover talks involving himself. Two years is a long time to commit. | :19:00. | :19:07. | |
Why do you think he is staying on? There is uncertainty at the moment. | :19:08. | :19:16. | |
He owns 49% of the Royals. Talks are still ongoing. More to come! That is | :19:17. | :19:35. | |
the breaking news tonight. Reading Football Club have announced | :19:36. | :19:38. | |
plans to build a new training ground after completing the purchase of a | :19:39. | :19:42. | |
plot of land from the Royal Merchant Navy School. Reading have only been | :19:43. | :19:45. | |
at their current Hogwood Park base since 2004. They've now signed a | :19:46. | :19:49. | |
deal to buy 120 acres of land three miles north of Hogwood Park. The new | :19:50. | :19:53. | |
site at Bearwood Estate will house 15 pitches and will be home to the | :19:54. | :19:59. | |
first team and the academy. There was a notable moment for a | :20:00. | :20:02. | |
Southampton footballer in an international last night. No, not in | :20:03. | :20:04. | |
the England`Poland game at Wembley, where neither of the Saints pair | :20:05. | :20:08. | |
Rickie Lambert nor Artur Boruc featured. Instead it was in the less | :20:09. | :20:11. | |
grand surroundings of Ipswich. 18`year`old Saints midfielder James | :20:12. | :20:13. | |
Ward`Prowse curled in this cracking free kick for his first goal at | :20:14. | :20:17. | |
England Under`21 level. That was in their 5`0 win over Lithuania. | :20:18. | :20:19. | |
Meanwhile, Saints' in`form goalkeeper Artur Boruc is a doubt | :20:20. | :20:22. | |
for Saints' trip to Manchester United on Saturday. He missed | :20:23. | :20:24. | |
Poland's game against England last night with a hamstring strain. | :20:25. | :20:28. | |
Poole Pirates can once again proudly call themselves the British Speedway | :20:29. | :20:31. | |
champions. They won the Elite League title after completing victory over | :20:32. | :20:34. | |
the Birmingham Brummies across the two`legged Grand Final. The Pirates | :20:35. | :20:37. | |
led by 21 points after the first leg, and extended that advantage | :20:38. | :20:40. | |
further on a memorable night at Perry Barr. Rob Powell's report does | :20:41. | :20:42. | |
contain some flash photography. Against the odds, a fifth Elite | :20:43. | :20:46. | |
League title for Poole Pirates. Back in May, the Pirates were bottom of | :20:47. | :20:49. | |
the table and plagued by injuries. Now, with star rider Darcy Ward | :20:50. | :20:52. | |
fully recovered, they're champions again. We have got the best fans in | :20:53. | :20:59. | |
the country. Poole were 21 points up going into | :21:00. | :21:02. | |
the second leg against Birmingham Brummies. Victory was effectively | :21:03. | :21:07. | |
sealed in Heat 11 by Australian Ward. And by the end of the night at | :21:08. | :21:12. | |
Perry Bar the Pirates had brought it home. Final aggragate score: 104`79. | :21:13. | :21:18. | |
Absolutely brilliant! It all came together at the end. I don't think | :21:19. | :21:21. | |
we could have done it without him. Well done, Darcy. We squeaked into | :21:22. | :21:27. | |
the play`offs and now we have won it. The guys have all pulled | :21:28. | :21:30. | |
together. It is a brilliant achievement. | :21:31. | :21:34. | |
New signing Greg Hancock was at the centre of the celebrations. He was | :21:35. | :21:37. | |
brought in after captain Chris Holder suffered an injury in July. | :21:38. | :21:44. | |
It was a long shot. We just like to have a good run at it. To cover for | :21:45. | :21:50. | |
Chris was one of the greatest things I could have done. This team | :21:51. | :21:54. | |
couldn't have been better. Because of the way we have won this, it is | :21:55. | :21:59. | |
incredible. That guy, Darcy Ward, when you work with talent like that | :22:00. | :22:05. | |
you have always got a chance. A victory and comeback that Speedway | :22:06. | :22:08. | |
fans in the South won't forget in a hurry. Congratulations to them. | :22:09. | :22:22. | |

Overnight we will see 12`macro showers. No mist patches to talk of, | :22:37. | :22:42. | |
but the showers could be on the heavy side. Elsewhere, it should | :22:43. | :22:47. | |
stage a rye with a few clear spells. Very mild. We are having this | :22:48. | :22:54. | |
breathes. `` it should stage a riot. Lows between 11 and 14. A mild start | :22:55. | :23:01. | |
to tomorrow. The shells could be on the heavy side. More likely along | :23:02. | :23:05. | |
the M4 corridor. Elsewhere, sunny spells will start to develop. In the | :23:06. | :23:10. | |
sunshine, temperatures will rise nicely. Tomorrow, 16, 17, maybe 18 | :23:11. | :23:20. | |
Celsius with a light to moderate south`westerly winds. The odd shower | :23:21. | :23:23. | |
to end the day but it should become drier tomorrow night into the early | :23:24. | :23:29. | |
hours. If you clear spells, maybe some mist patches. Temperatures once | :23:30. | :23:37. | |
a claim `` again mild. A dry start to Friday but it is all change on | :23:38. | :23:45. | |
mid`morning. The winds will be dragged up from the south. A mild | :23:46. | :23:49. | |
day did `` despite the wind and rain. It will be quite a sunny day | :23:50. | :23:57. | |
all in all. `` soggy day. Looking ahead to the weekend, the rain will | :23:58. | :24:01. | |
clear first thing, and following that, showers. At times staying | :24:02. | :24:10. | |
breezy but it will be mild. Temperatures are two or three | :24:11. | :24:16. | |
degrees above average. Rain on Friday, arriving around mid`morning. | :24:17. | :24:20. | |
With it, the strong south`westerly winds. For Saturday, I love of cloud | :24:21. | :24:26. | |
around initially with the rain first thing. That will clear to leave us | :24:27. | :24:31. | |
with sunshine and showers. `` a lot of cloud. | :24:32. | :24:39. | |
Now, what's in a name? We're talking about addresses which play an | :24:40. | :24:44. | |
important part in life. Think back to when you last moved house. All | :24:45. | :24:47. | |
the paperwork and seemingly endless phone calls which go into changing | :24:48. | :24:51. | |
your address. Or what about when you open a new bank account, when you're | :24:52. | :24:54. | |
usually asked to produce ID with your name and address on? Well, now | :24:55. | :24:58. | |
imagine the dismay of the residents of a street in Worthing when they | :24:59. | :25:01. | |
received letters informing them their address and postcode been | :25:02. | :25:03. | |
changed with immediate effect. That's what happened over the | :25:04. | :25:06. | |
weekend. Jo Kent has been investigating. | :25:07. | :25:08. | |
We're here to meet Paul and Judy, who, until Saturday, thought they at | :25:09. | :25:11. | |
number 70. `` they lived. Now they are not sure what their address is. | :25:12. | :25:19. | |
I received a letter with my name on, saying that within 24 hours our | :25:20. | :25:22. | |
house number will change from 70 to three. It would be called Henty | :25:23. | :25:27. | |
close. They had changed our postcode as well. If, like me, you have | :25:28. | :25:33. | |
recently moved house, you will know that changing your details can be a | :25:34. | :25:40. | |
real headache. Imagine how much more of a headache it is if the postcode | :25:41. | :25:45. | |
you have just been given doesn't seem to exist. If the house burns | :25:46. | :25:55. | |
down tonight, are we ensured? `` insured? We are in limbo. This is | :25:56. | :26:06. | |
the road on the even side. Number 54 is behind me. We are into the close | :26:07. | :26:11. | |
now. To all intents and purposes, its address has been Henty Road. The | :26:12. | :26:17. | |
first house we come to, number 56. It becomes number ten. And so it | :26:18. | :26:28. | |
continues. Christmas, if it stays like this, is going to be chaotic. | :26:29. | :26:32. | |
We are going to be running around wondering where to get our cards | :26:33. | :26:37. | |
from. It is a horrible letter. It is, this is what is going to | :26:38. | :26:43. | |
happen, tough, get on with it. What has the council had to say? | :26:44. | :26:52. | |
Actually, the Cabinet member with responsibility in this area didn't | :26:53. | :26:55. | |
know about it and says officers have really messed up. I am appalled by | :26:56. | :26:58. | |
it. I am really sorry to the residents. If they have any | :26:59. | :27:03. | |
financial consequences, they can send us the accounts. We told Judy | :27:04. | :27:18. | |
and pour the good news. Fantastic. Now I am confused. What are they? ! | :27:19. | :27:27. | |
Imagine what the postman must think. Poor people. That is all our time | :27:28. | :27:32. | |
for tonight. Tomorrow, you are going to look ahead to the rally | :27:33. | :27:39. | |
sun`seeker? Be with us tomorrow if you can. Good night. | :27:40. | :28:13. | |
You ask us to get behind you and why should we? | :28:14. | :28:16. | |
You're punching above your weight, aren't you? | :28:17. | :28:18. | |
He wouldn't do that to me because he wasn't that sort of a man. | :28:19. | :28:25. |
