:00:00. > :00:07.Hello and welcome to South Today from Oxford. In tonight's programme:

:00:08. > :00:11.Calling for legal action ovdr her son's death in a care home. Connor

:00:12. > :00:21.Sparowhawk's mother wants corporate manslaughter charges to be brought

:00:22. > :00:25.against the health trust. It was the most basic of care that was needed

:00:26. > :00:31.to keep him alive, and they did not provide that. Also tonight: killed

:00:32. > :00:34.on a building site. A court hears Mark Williams was crushed bx a type

:00:35. > :00:37.of forklift truck that shouldn't have been used there. And l`ter on:

:00:38. > :00:39.from riding the waves to riding horseback. Two Paralympic champions

:00:40. > :00:57.trade places. Good evening. A woman from Oxford is

:00:58. > :01:00.calling for a charge of corporate manslaughter to be brought `gainst

:01:01. > :01:03.an NHS Trust she holds responsible for the death of her teenagd son.

:01:04. > :01:07.Connor Sparrowhawk died at Slade House in July last year. In her

:01:08. > :01:11.first television interview, his mother Sara Ryan has spoken of her

:01:12. > :01:16.campaign to improve care for vulnerable adults. Peter Cooke has

:01:17. > :01:25.been to meet her. It's enorlously painful. The sadness didn't go away

:01:26. > :01:29.at all. It is something you have got to live with. Sara Ryan says she's

:01:30. > :01:33.still seeking justice for hdr son Connor Sparrowhawk. They had a duty

:01:34. > :01:38.of care to look after him and keep him alive. And they didn't. The

:01:39. > :01:43.18`year`old drowned in a bath at Slade House in Headington l`st July.

:01:44. > :01:46.A report found the unit for people with learning difficulties had

:01:47. > :01:49."failed significantly" in hhs care, and left him unsupervised ddspite

:01:50. > :01:52.his epilepsy. Southern Health NHS Foundation Trust, which runs the

:01:53. > :02:01.unit, closed it in November pending a review. But does Sarah thhnk

:02:02. > :02:04.that's enough? The chief exdcutive needs to take responsibilitx for

:02:05. > :02:09.what's happened. You shouldn't have that level of disarray and chaos on

:02:10. > :02:19.your watch. What would you like to see happen? Hopefully shame them to

:02:20. > :02:23.the point that other trusts think, we need to look at our own house

:02:24. > :02:27.here and make sure that thex aren't falling into the same traps that

:02:28. > :02:31.they did. Today she was at ` radio station near Wantage which supports

:02:32. > :02:34.groups with learning diffictlties. Sarah is also launching a c`mpaign

:02:35. > :02:38.this week to highlight poor care provision. She thinks Southdrn

:02:39. > :02:49.Health should face corporatd manslaughter charges. But to what

:02:50. > :02:58.end? Some visible, tangible change. I think Winterborne throughout all

:02:59. > :02:59.sorts of outrage in shock and two years on, there has not been any

:03:00. > :03:18.change at all. Sarah Ryan talking to Peter Cooke.

:03:19. > :03:21.Sue Harriman is the deputy Chief Executive of Southern Health NHS

:03:22. > :03:24.Foundation Trust ` which runs Slade House. I asked what her response was

:03:25. > :03:30.to a possible corporate manslaughter charge. Firstly what I would like to

:03:31. > :03:35.do is repeat the unreserved apology that we gave to the family of Connor

:03:36. > :03:40.Sparrowhawk. We let him and his family down and for that, wd

:03:41. > :03:42.apologise. We fully accept the findings of the independent

:03:43. > :03:47.investigation. We have made significant changes since that time.

:03:48. > :03:54.What is important to us is that we share the learning and we are keen

:03:55. > :03:58.to open a dialogue with Sar`h Ryan. We have tried to open dialogue from

:03:59. > :04:05.the beginning. We appreciatd for her, that the time only to be

:04:06. > :04:12.right, but when she wants to talk to us, we are keen to engage. What

:04:13. > :04:18.changes have been made? We did a 72 hour investigation after his death,

:04:19. > :04:20.and then it became clear th`t we needed to make improvements in the

:04:21. > :04:26.epilepsy risk management and protocols. Action was put in place

:04:27. > :04:32.not just in the unit where Connor Sparrowhawk died but across all of

:04:33. > :04:34.our services. He said that xou let Connor Sparrowhawk down and his

:04:35. > :04:43.family down, so has anyone been disciplined? A number of individuals

:04:44. > :04:50.are subject to HR disciplin`ry proceedings and we will know the

:04:51. > :04:55.outcomes of that in some tile. How confident can people be abott the

:04:56. > :04:59.standard of care and homes that you run? It is important that wd have

:05:00. > :05:03.the confidence of the local population. Southern Health has been

:05:04. > :05:07.running these services for just over a year. There is much work to do,

:05:08. > :05:11.but significant progress has been made, and we believe that wd are

:05:12. > :05:16.really making those improvelents, and we will be, we want to have

:05:17. > :05:30.services that we are excepthonally proud of. A court has heard how a

:05:31. > :05:33.type of forklift truck was wrongly used on a building site where an

:05:34. > :05:36.Oxfordshire man died. 41`ye`r`old Mark Williams from Nuneham Courtenay

:05:37. > :05:40.died in the summer of 2011 when the truck he was using to lift tiles

:05:41. > :05:43.onto a roof at the Parkway development in Newbury fell on him.

:05:44. > :05:46.Two building companies are on trial for breaching health and safety

:05:47. > :05:52.laws. Ben Moore was at Readhng Crown Court. Expert operator Mich`el Dixon

:05:53. > :05:57.told the court that a mobild crane or similar machine should h`ve been

:05:58. > :06:00.used by Mr Williams instead as he worked on the Parkway Development.`

:06:01. > :06:03.The court has already heard how Mr Williams complained to site managers

:06:04. > :06:09.about the tight space he had to work in the day before he died.

:06:10. > :06:14.Mr Williams was 41 when he died father of two. The court had heard

:06:15. > :06:21.how Mr William 's complaint site managers about the tight sp`cing had

:06:22. > :06:24.to work in, the day before he died. Mr Dixon said the risks of tsing

:06:25. > :06:33.telehandlers should have bedn identified as the work was being

:06:34. > :06:36.planned. Mr William's mother was in court, as the defence said Lr

:06:37. > :06:40.Williams was using an unauthorised loading bay. The defence cross

:06:41. > :06:43.examined Michael Dixon about whether stabilising legs should havd been

:06:44. > :06:47.used with the telehandler. The defence say the loading could have

:06:48. > :06:49.been done safely but the re`son the telehandler tipped was that the

:06:50. > :06:58.loaded boom was raised and stabilisers not deployed. Asked if

:06:59. > :07:05.using it in this was dangerous, Mr Dixon replied, "Yes". The ddveloper

:07:06. > :07:13.Costain is expected to take the stand tomorrow. It along with

:07:14. > :07:18.Attlee's Roofing plead not guilty to breaching health and safety laws.

:07:19. > :07:22.Two men have been arrested following an armed robbery at a bookm`ker s in

:07:23. > :07:26.Oxford last week. A member of staff at Stan James on the Roundw`y in

:07:27. > :07:29.Headington was threatened bx two men who then escaped with money from the

:07:30. > :07:32.shop last Thursday. The pair arrested are both 18, and are being

:07:33. > :07:36.held in custody on suspicion of armed robbery and firearms offences.

:07:37. > :07:39.Research into hearing loss `nd tinnitus at Oxford University is

:07:40. > :07:42.under threat because the ch`rity that funds it has had a big drop in

:07:43. > :07:45.donations. Action on Hearing Loss currently has a ?2.5 million

:07:46. > :07:49.shortfall. It's now launching an appeal for help, so it can continue

:07:50. > :07:54.its community work as well `s its specialist research projects.

:07:55. > :07:59.Charlotte Stacey has more ddtails. Anthony has two hearing aids. He

:08:00. > :08:03.comes to this drop`in session at Buckingham library to make sure that

:08:04. > :08:08.they are working properly. But the charity that runs this servhce is

:08:09. > :08:15.struggling. I would be very upset if it disappeared. Before, I h`d to go

:08:16. > :08:21.to Stoke Mandeville Hospital. It is much better here. There are lots of

:08:22. > :08:27.people in pain with the samd problem, hearing problems. Three has

:08:28. > :08:30.had a ?2.5 million shortfall this year because fewer people and let

:08:31. > :08:36.them money and their will. They have launched a big appeal. Mich`el is

:08:37. > :08:40.from the charity. His words are spoken by an interpreter. Anyone

:08:41. > :08:44.with hearing loss needs ongoing support. You do not just get a pair

:08:45. > :08:48.of glasses, you have to get on with your life. People with hearhng loss

:08:49. > :08:52.have hearing aids and need support the batteries and tubing, you need

:08:53. > :08:56.to have the hearing aid functioning as effectively as possible. At

:08:57. > :09:02.Oxford University the charity is funding ground`breaking resdarch

:09:03. > :09:07.into tin of this which can `ffect one in 100 people. There is

:09:08. > :09:11.currently no cure. Hearing loss is a neglected area of medical rdsearch.

:09:12. > :09:18.And then it is, which is part of hearing loss research, is even more

:09:19. > :09:25.fragile and underfunded. So, it is vital that we increase the funding

:09:26. > :09:29.that we have for important research. The charity has donated over half ?1

:09:30. > :09:33.million to Oxford Universitx for hearing loss research, but future

:09:34. > :09:42.studies like this could be `t risk, if more money cannot be found, soon.

:09:43. > :09:46.Plans to reduce speed limits to 60mph on part of the M4 are being

:09:47. > :09:49.criticised by the AA. The Hhghways Agency is proposing variabld speed

:09:50. > :09:51.limits and driving on the h`rd shoulder through Berkshire. The

:09:52. > :09:54.Agency says the so`called slart motorway will increase capacity

:09:55. > :09:57.There will be new safe placds for vehicles which break down, but the

:09:58. > :10:03.AA believes they'll be too far apart. With the smart motorway we

:10:04. > :10:09.will be running on the hard shoulder, but there will be refugee

:10:10. > :10:12.areas every 2.5 kilometres, and we believe that 50% of the traffic will

:10:13. > :10:21.be able to get there, when they do have an emergency. The prospect of a

:10:22. > :10:25.new ring road around Bicestdr and improvements to one of the busiest

:10:26. > :10:29.roads in Banbury have moved a step forward. By 2031 there will be more

:10:30. > :10:31.than 4,000 new homes in Bicdster and with growth comes the need for

:10:32. > :10:34.better infrastructure. Oxfordshire County councillors have backed a

:10:35. > :10:37.major overhaul of the road network, as Jeremy Stern reports. Thd sign at

:10:38. > :10:39.County Hall points to some of the best`known towns in Oxfordshire and

:10:40. > :10:42.many of them are expanding, with tens of thousands more people

:10:43. > :10:46.expected to come to the county in the next few decades. How whll the

:10:47. > :10:52.transport network Koke with this extra demand? Councillors hdre today

:10:53. > :10:55.revealed their plans to change the road network and, for the fhrst

:10:56. > :11:00.time, official backing was given to a ring road around Bicester, one of

:11:01. > :11:02.the fastest`growing towns in Europe, with new shops and businessds

:11:03. > :11:10.bringing people in. Already, traffic can build up on the A34 and in the

:11:11. > :11:15.town itself and politician say that the new road will encourage growth.

:11:16. > :11:19.There was talk of tackling congestion around Didcot and

:11:20. > :11:28.Whitney, and there was good news for people driving through Banbtry at

:11:29. > :11:38.rush hour. Hennef Way could be widened. I'm realistic enough to

:11:39. > :11:42.realise that the plans will not necessarily be the plans th`t are

:11:43. > :11:46.delivered in the fullness of time. Most of it will be there, some of it

:11:47. > :11:51.will be changed and modify slightly, it depends where the development

:11:52. > :11:55.goes, at the end of the day. That will determine what we end tp with.

:11:56. > :12:05.If the money can be found, councillors hope that the ndw rates

:12:06. > :12:08.will be opened by the year 2030 A community building costing lore than

:12:09. > :12:11.?6 million is being planned for Bicester. It would be on thd

:12:12. > :12:14.Franklin's Yard car park and would house a library, local socidties as

:12:15. > :12:18.well as a hotel, shops and offices. The application will be discussed in

:12:19. > :12:21.May and, if approved, buildhng work should be complete by Summer next

:12:22. > :12:25.year. That's all from me for the moment. I'll be here again `t 1 .25.

:12:26. > :12:39.Now more of today's stories with Sally.

:12:40. > :12:51.Still to come, from riding the waves to riding horseback, two Paralympic

:12:52. > :12:54.champions swap sports. Sussdx Police has announced a ?10,000 rew`rd for

:12:55. > :12:57.information to help catch a killer. 55`year`old artist and grandmother

:12:58. > :13:00.Valerie Graves was brutally murdered at a house she was looking `fter for

:13:01. > :13:04.friends at Bosham near Chichester just before New Year. Detectives

:13:05. > :13:09.have taken more than 100 st`tements and found a hammer they belheve to

:13:10. > :13:18.have been used in the attack. But so far no`one has been charged. Sean

:13:19. > :13:23.Killick reports. It is now nearly three months since Value Gr`ves was

:13:24. > :13:27.murdered at this property. The police have only recently concluded

:13:28. > :13:32.their forensic examination. So detailed was their search that they

:13:33. > :13:37.have called in contractors to make repairs before the family who live

:13:38. > :13:42.here can move back in. In the porch, decorated Christmas tree. A reminder

:13:43. > :13:45.that it was back in December when tragedy struck. Valerie Graves was

:13:46. > :13:50.55 years old and had been house`sitting with her family at the

:13:51. > :13:53.property wealthy owners werd on holiday. Her body was found on

:13:54. > :13:59.December 30 and she has suffered serious head injuries. Her daughter

:14:00. > :14:04.and son made an appeal at a police car `` press conference. We were

:14:05. > :14:08.devastated for the family. We would appeal to anyone who has anx

:14:09. > :14:16.information about them and for them to contact the police. Desphte that

:14:17. > :14:20.appeal, coverage on BBC Crilewatch and interviewing more than ` hundred

:14:21. > :14:25.people, no one has been charged It has led to some anxiety in the area.

:14:26. > :14:29.It is terrible that it happdned and even worse that they haven't found

:14:30. > :14:37.haven't found someone. You just have haven't found someone. You just have

:14:38. > :14:41.to get on with life. 50 Sussex police started working full`time on

:14:42. > :14:45.the investigation. Street strgeries are being held to reassure residents

:14:46. > :14:51.and to look for new leads. Police announced a ?10,000 award. We are

:14:52. > :14:57.hopeful this will walk will bring forward a person who may have some

:14:58. > :15:00.concerns around an acquaint`nce or a friend or who may have talkdd about

:15:01. > :15:06.hurting someone with a hammdr. We want that person to come forward and

:15:07. > :15:12.help us to help the family `nd find a resolution to this terrible crime.

:15:13. > :15:14.22`year`old man who was arrdsted on suspicion of murder in Janu`ry

:15:15. > :15:20.release `` remains on bail. Businesses in Southampton s`y

:15:21. > :15:23.they've been losing trade shnce evening parking charges werd

:15:24. > :15:27.introduced in the city centre at the beginning of the year. Figures

:15:28. > :15:31.obtained by BBC South show that the city council raised forty thousand

:15:32. > :15:34.pounds in revenue in Januarx. They also issued nearly 650 parkhng

:15:35. > :15:39.tickets that brought in another ?9,000. Briony Leyland has been

:15:40. > :15:52.speaking to businesses and joins me now. Oxford Street here has a wide

:15:53. > :15:58.range of restaurants catering to every taste from pizzas and tap us

:15:59. > :16:02.to fine dining and bars. It used to be free to park around here after

:16:03. > :16:06.six o'clock. It isn't any more and it costs ?2 and it applies `cross

:16:07. > :16:12.the city centre here. Traders say it is bad for business. We havdn't seen

:16:13. > :16:21.as many customers as we had before. Simple as that. People don't want to

:16:22. > :16:25.pay ?2. I can't see that putting up car parking charges makes pdople

:16:26. > :16:30.want to come out. If you have the council saying it is a great place

:16:31. > :16:34.to eat and shop, you have an addict `` you have another departmdnt

:16:35. > :16:41.sticking on charges putting people off. It is a negative effects. The

:16:42. > :16:50.first of the restaurant owndrs said he told one of his customers'

:16:51. > :16:53.parking fines. The charges `pply between six and eight o'clock.

:16:54. > :16:58.Around the corner, the charge is applied between six and midnight.

:16:59. > :17:03.People we spoke to today sahd they are still getting used to the

:17:04. > :17:09.charges. When people come over, we don't know what to tell thel about

:17:10. > :17:17.the public. It is not very obvious. It is a little bit confusing and

:17:18. > :17:27.expensive. ?3 gives me an hour. It is a lot of money. Very annoyed We

:17:28. > :17:31.seem to swallow it and think it is another Bill and take it on the

:17:32. > :17:39.nose. We should complain a little bit more.

:17:40. > :17:43.What have the council had to say? Southampton City Council weren't

:17:44. > :17:47.available for interview and deny this is a money raising plox. They

:17:48. > :17:50.said there is increased dem`nd for parking across the city throughout

:17:51. > :17:56.the day and the evening charges will help to cover the cost of providing

:17:57. > :17:57.parking provision in the city. In a statement they told us that there

:17:58. > :18:21.has been no evidence presented yet. Traders here hope by voicing their

:18:22. > :18:38.concerns there is some hope that there will be changes to thd

:18:39. > :18:41.arrangements. Now for the sport Bournemouth are bang in the middle

:18:42. > :18:44.of the table. Bournemouth h`ve now kept four consecutive clean sheets

:18:45. > :18:48.and tonight they're at a cltb who not too long ago were courthng the

:18:49. > :18:51.services of manager Eddie Howe. Kris Temple is live at the Vallex where

:18:52. > :18:57.he's commentating for BBC R`dio Solent, Kris the Cherries ahming for

:18:58. > :19:02.another milestone tonight? The boss is bold enough to say that he thinks

:19:03. > :19:05.his side could make the plax`offs this season. A win here tonhght

:19:06. > :19:12.against Charlton will reducd the deficit to a points from top six.

:19:13. > :19:15.Bournemouth will have to ovdrcome a pitch at the boss told me w`s

:19:16. > :19:20.probably one of the worst hd had seen. They are aiming for a clean

:19:21. > :19:29.sheet to night. It hasn't bden achieved for the past `` best part

:19:30. > :19:34.of 20 years. Brian Fraser rdturns. Kris is live with the whole game,

:19:35. > :19:37.we'll have the goals here tomorrow. The skills of a top sportsm`n or

:19:38. > :19:39.woman are often transferabld, and that seems to be the case for two of

:19:40. > :19:42.the country's leading Paralxmpics the country's leading Paralxmpics

:19:43. > :19:46.athletes who have traded pl`ces to get a taste of their sports. Sailor

:19:47. > :19:49.Helena Lucas joined Equestrhan rider Lee Pearson to see how each achieved

:19:50. > :19:57.a gold medal in their respective events in 2012. First up was Lee at

:19:58. > :20:02.the Weymouth and Portland s`iling academy. Then Helena tried out a

:20:03. > :20:11.spot of horse riding, so how did they cope? I loved it. It w`s great

:20:12. > :20:20.to do more or less everything. I made a few adjustments. My reach is

:20:21. > :20:25.limited and my manoeuvrabilhty. It was a really good experiencd. There

:20:26. > :20:34.is definitely a feel factor with horse riding. It is completdly

:20:35. > :20:38.different but there is that. I think that is widely picked up thd sailing

:20:39. > :20:46.so quickly. I could sense when the boat was moving fast. There is

:20:47. > :20:50.definitely a lot of field to both sports. They are both sitting down

:20:51. > :20:54.as well. The 11 boats which make up the

:20:55. > :20:58.Extreme sailing series are hn the middle east for the second stage of

:20:59. > :21:01.the competition. The teams, including Lymington's Ben Ahnslie,

:21:02. > :21:06.who skippers his own racing team, will compete over the next four days

:21:07. > :21:14.in Oman. The Swiss boat Alinghi won the opening event in Singapore last

:21:15. > :21:24.month. It is a tremendous event.

:21:25. > :21:33.Tomorrow, we will be down whth the reigning elite speedboat

:21:34. > :21:37.championships. We will look ahead to the new season tomorrow night.

:21:38. > :21:40.It's been a symbol of thous`nds of family holiday memories, but a

:21:41. > :21:48.privately`owned land train that has been running at a Dorset be`uty spot

:21:49. > :21:51.for 45`years is to be replaced. Thousands of people have signed a

:21:52. > :21:53.petition to save the Hengistbury Head land train.

:21:54. > :21:57.They want the council to ovdrturn their decision to replace it with

:21:58. > :22:00.one of its own. But the council says they intend to provide a better

:22:01. > :22:02.service including improved disabled access and additional stops. Dani

:22:03. > :22:13.Sinha reports.. It is known to locals as thd noddy

:22:14. > :22:17.train but it could soon be consigned to history after the council failed

:22:18. > :22:22.to renew its contract. This woman was so enraged when he heard the

:22:23. > :22:28.news that she drove all the way from Reigate in Surrey to sign a

:22:29. > :22:33.petition. This is a family concern and it is `` and it has been going

:22:34. > :22:39.for 45 years or more. I think enough changes in this world and some

:22:40. > :22:46.things should remain the sale. The new council run trains are designed

:22:47. > :22:52.to incorporate additional stops It is going to be 50% more cap`city on

:22:53. > :22:59.the train and it would be slightly wider. They would be fewer journeys

:23:00. > :23:01.and it would be more eco`frhendly. I can't see how they will improve on

:23:02. > :23:09.something that has been running for 45 years. We have perfected the

:23:10. > :23:14.service over these 45 years. There is a lot of affection for this

:23:15. > :23:18.train. Come November, it cotld spell the end of the line for this

:23:19. > :23:23.particular service and for some local people, that is

:23:24. > :23:28.incomprehensible. The train is working perfectly well and H am sure

:23:29. > :23:35.it has little impact on the environment. Why change it? It is a

:23:36. > :23:40.bit of history. Only people power is likely to save this little fellow.

:23:41. > :23:45.The council says customers will not be disappointed with its

:23:46. > :23:51.replacement. It is one of your favourite trains.

:23:52. > :23:56.I love that part of the world. It is so beautiful. Is it going to be good

:23:57. > :24:08.weather over the next few d`ys and the weekend? Tomorrow, it is not a

:24:09. > :24:13.bad day. We had sun shines `nd snowflakes later in the week. We

:24:14. > :24:38.have had some gorgeous weather pixies `` pictures.

:24:39. > :24:41.Some beautiful weather at thmes and we have some more to come tomorrow.

:24:42. > :24:45.We have some winter we showdrs in We have some winter we showdrs in

:24:46. > :24:50.the forecast later this week. Through the rest of this evdning and

:24:51. > :24:54.tonight, we are seeing some clear spells overhead but with thd breeze

:24:55. > :25:00.around, I suspect we will steer clear of a frost. It is quite a mild

:25:01. > :25:04.night. We have patchy cloud and some lengthy clear spells and our

:25:05. > :25:10.temperatures down to six Celsius. As we start the day on Wednesd`y, a

:25:11. > :25:14.mild start with some clear skies yet again. Hazy sunshine through the

:25:15. > :25:19.morning and some patchy clotd coming and going. There is a decent day of

:25:20. > :25:27.sunshine. We have some good temperatures into the mid tdens

:25:28. > :25:31.Along the coast, it is a bit cooler and we have some low cloud sitting

:25:32. > :25:43.out in the Channel four parts of the day. A decent day with some warm

:25:44. > :25:50.sunshine. Tomorrow night, wd will see some cloud in the picture.

:25:51. > :25:54.Temperatures around eight Cdlsius during the overnight period. As we

:25:55. > :25:57.look to Thursday, we have a change on the way. This weather front

:25:58. > :26:01.sweeps in from the north`west and it will bring with it some heavy rain.

:26:02. > :26:06.After a cloudy start, we have that wet weather arriving. You c`n see

:26:07. > :26:11.the cold air that will be introduced as we go into Friday and thd

:26:12. > :26:18.weekend. How do we round off this week? It will feel much colder.

:26:19. > :26:22.There is some overnight frost to come as well and we may havd someone

:26:23. > :26:26.to come as well and we may have some winter we will see them as hail but

:26:27. > :26:31.if you are on higher ground, you may see one or two snowflakes hdre and

:26:32. > :26:41.there. It is set to feel much fresher by the end of the wdek. A

:26:42. > :26:45.cloudy day through Thursday with wet weather arriving June be middle part

:26:46. > :26:48.of the afternoon and as Mattel of the week, things are turning colder

:26:49. > :26:55.with some showers that could be wintry in nature.

:26:56. > :27:04.My chickens have only just started playing again. Tony is having a

:27:05. > :27:08.nightmare with the lawn. I have reseeded the lawn but the
