Hello and welcome to South Today outlook is mixed. Thank you.

:00:00.:00:09.

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

:00:10.:00:26.

Pregnancy and women's health. How the lifestyle and well being of

:00:27.:00:30.

thousands of women is to be monitored in Oxford. Also tonight:

:00:31.:00:33.

The day the lightning struck ` one woman tells us what happened where

:00:34.:00:36.

her home was hit during a rdcent storm. Catering to a growing market:

:00:37.:00:39.

How tourist attractions are making it easier for Chinese visitors to

:00:40.:00:43.

enjoy their days out. And l`ter on: The man who discovered Henrx VIII's

:00:44.:00:46.

Mary Rose receives recognithon for his tireless work. Good evening

:00:47.:01:02.

It's being described as the first study of its kind. A huge project in

:01:03.:01:06.

Oxford to build a detailed picture of thousands of women and their

:01:07.:01:09.

health and lifestyle before, during and after pregnancy. It's hoped the

:01:10.:01:13.

research will lead to better understanding of conditions such as

:01:14.:01:15.

depression, diabetes and wehght gain by following the women as they start

:01:16.:01:19.

families. Stuart Tinworth h`s been finding out more. Nadia at home with

:01:20.:01:30.

two`month`old Evan ` she was one of the first to sign up to this

:01:31.:01:33.

pioneering research project. This ground`breaking scheme eventually

:01:34.:01:36.

hopes to recruit thousands of young women like her ` to follow their

:01:37.:01:39.

journey before and after becoming a mum. I was a bit surprised than

:01:40.:01:46.

nothing like this has been done before so it was really fascinating

:01:47.:01:50.

and will be really useful for future generations. The study will look at

:01:51.:01:57.

women's health ` those taking part will have their blood presstre

:01:58.:02:01.

taken, a blood test and a hdart scan. But they'll also be asked to

:02:02.:02:04.

complete a detailed and confidential survey into their lifestyle. This is

:02:05.:02:08.

all to help understand how `nd why their health is affected in later

:02:09.:02:10.

life ` especially after havhng children. It has never been done

:02:11.:02:16.

before other than looking at nutrition during pregnancy. Weevil

:02:17.:02:22.

this will help us identify the risk factors for women that may lead to a

:02:23.:02:25.

complicated pregnancy or long`term competitions for them and hopefully

:02:26.:02:30.

by identifying these we will look at earlier interventions and

:02:31.:02:42.

treatments. This is a joint study and already a hundred women have

:02:43.:02:48.

signed up. This time the authorities are looking at women intendhng to

:02:49.:02:55.

get pregnant within the next year. They are hopefully going to grow up

:02:56.:02:58.

knowing a bit more about thd risks and what they can do to prepare for

:02:59.:03:08.

pregnancy. If successful, the scheme will expand and aims to build the

:03:09.:03:22.

biggest health picture ever around pregnancy. And if you are interested

:03:23.:03:33.

in taking part in the study ` you can call 01865 572259 or go online

:03:34.:03:36.

at osprea.ox.ac.uk/oxwatch @ police officer is to stand trial accused of

:03:37.:03:40.

assaulting a hotel night porter in Swindon. Swindon Magistrates has

:03:41.:03:46.

heard how Avon and Somerset PC Gary Tester, seen here in the red jumper,

:03:47.:03:50.

was arrested at a Premier Inn `in January following a disturb`nce

:03:51.:03:52.

about noise. He's pleaded not guilty to assault by beating and is due

:03:53.:03:56.

back in court in August. A lan's been sentenced to more than two

:03:57.:03:59.

years in prison after admitting starting a fire at Campsfield House

:04:00.:04:02.

immigration centre in Oxfordshire. 25`year`old Farid Pardiaz, who was a

:04:03.:04:05.

detainee at the centre in Kidlington, had pleaded guilty to

:04:06.:04:08.

arson. Two people were taken to hospital and more than half of the

:04:09.:04:11.

detainees were temporarily loved to other centres following the fire

:04:12.:04:14.

last October. There have bedn warnings from the Government about

:04:15.:04:17.

high levels of air pollution for parts of our region and elsdwhere in

:04:18.:04:22.

the country. It's being caused by pollution from Britain the continent

:04:23.:04:25.

being trapped in place becatse of light winds and mixing with dust

:04:26.:04:28.

from the Sahara desert. One woman from Milton Keynes has told us that

:04:29.:04:31.

she's started experiencing breathing problems. I went out yesterday

:04:32.:04:35.

morning in the car and I noticed this deposit on the bonnet which I

:04:36.:04:38.

really couldn't understand. And when I came back, I found I was starting

:04:39.:04:42.

to have difficulty breathing. I was tight in the chest, had difficulty

:04:43.:04:49.

bending down to pick things up. I had a sore throat and itchy eyes and

:04:50.:04:53.

I had difficulty sleeping bdcause I had to sleep sitting up, whhch is

:04:54.:04:57.

not very comfortable. It's going to be easier for people to accdss

:04:58.:05:00.

sexual health services across Oxfordshire. A new deal's bden

:05:01.:05:05.

agreed between the County Council and the trust that runs the NHS

:05:06.:05:12.

hospitals. Services that have been in different locations will be made

:05:13.:05:15.

available together on variots sites, including the Churchill Hospital in

:05:16.:05:18.

Oxford. What it means for p`tients is they don't have to think any

:05:19.:05:22.

more, Do I go to the contraception service, do I go the STD sevice

:05:23.:05:26.

They can go to any of the sdxual health services and will be offered

:05:27.:05:29.

both contraception and testhng for sexually transmitted infecthons

:05:30.:05:31.

They don't need to think whhch service is right for them any more.

:05:32.:05:35.

An Oxfordshire woman says she feels lucky to be alive after a lhghtning

:05:36.:05:39.

bolt hit her house. It blew out a window and melted plugs and sockets.

:05:40.:05:42.

Elisabeth Whitaker was at home with her husband in Watlington when the

:05:43.:05:45.

storm struck last Friday. She's being showing us the damage. As you

:05:46.:05:53.

can see this is the glass that was shattered by the lightning. Then the

:05:54.:06:06.

major damage was inside the crash. All electric points for dead and the

:06:07.:06:14.

roof is on the state so everything has to be replaced. It was very

:06:15.:06:20.

frightening and I am glad wd are alive. You can come inside the house

:06:21.:06:33.

and see the rest of the dis`ster. After the big bang I came in to this

:06:34.:06:39.

room, sitting room and I saw bits of debris of this type love thd carpet

:06:40.:06:45.

and here it was the beginning of a little fire. The carpet carpet is

:06:46.:06:59.

scorched here and this was lelted. It was like a bomb. I am a rational

:07:00.:07:09.

person but you become irrathonal in these sort of occasions. It was very

:07:10.:07:23.

scary. Elisabeth Whitaker t`lking about the day lightning strtck her

:07:24.:07:36.

home. Minister for research has visited a laboratory that is

:07:37.:07:44.

studying a vaccine for malaria. He said funding should remain `

:07:45.:07:46.

priority despite cuts in public services. Surely anyone with a heart

:07:47.:07:57.

would conclude it is right to prioritise this incredibly hmportant

:07:58.:08:13.

work. In the next six years it's thought that Chinese tourists will

:08:14.:08:16.

spend more than ?1billion in Britain. Now a number of attractions

:08:17.:08:19.

in our region are adapting to encourage more Chinese visitors In

:08:20.:08:21.

Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire several tourist hot spots are

:08:22.:08:24.

already leading the way, as Sinead Carroll reports. Seeing Oxfordshire

:08:25.:08:28.

from an Oriental perspectivd. Chinese tourism is worth around ?300

:08:29.:08:32.

million to the UK. Now placds like Blenheim Palace are trying to make

:08:33.:08:35.

themselves even more welcomhng to Eastern visitors. We have

:08:36.:08:41.

Mandarin`speaking guides in the palace so we can communicatd better

:08:42.:08:45.

with our Chinese visitors and give them a great experience. We have

:08:46.:08:47.

leaflets and comminications and websites in Chinese and in Landarin

:08:48.:08:51.

so that they can again be communicated to in the right way. We

:08:52.:09:09.

have UnionPay facilities we have installed in the shop just to

:09:10.:09:12.

generally make sure that whdn they come to Blenheim tehy have `

:09:13.:09:14.

fantastic experience. Blenhdim, along with Bicester Village, a hotel

:09:15.:09:18.

in Woodstock and Waddesdon Lanor have signed up to a

:09:19.:09:20.

Governemnt`backed scheme called the Great China Welcome Charter, meaning

:09:21.:09:23.

the venues will be helped to market to Chinese tourists. It's one of the

:09:24.:09:27.

main emerging markets coming into the UK. It's doubled in fivd years.

:09:28.:09:30.

Visit England are getting bdhind it, the Government are getting behind

:09:31.:09:34.

it. It's a market we want to make sure we're involved in and get a

:09:35.:09:37.

piece of the action here in Oxfordshire. On a gloriouslx sunny

:09:38.:09:41.

day like today it's easy to see why more than 700.000 visitors come to

:09:42.:09:44.

Blenheim each year. Last ye`r more than 300,000 of them were from

:09:45.:09:47.

China. Now Blenheim has signed up to this special charter, they hope to

:09:48.:09:51.

increase that number. If thdy do it will not just be good for the Palace

:09:52.:09:54.

that for all of the local economy as well. Plans for more than 1000 homes

:09:55.:10:05.

near Aylesbury have been rejected. The application for 1500 and local

:10:06.:10:08.

centre at Watermead were un`nimously refused by Aylesbury Vale's

:10:09.:10:10.

Development Control Committde. A development for the same site is

:10:11.:10:14.

being appealed and will go to a public inquiry later this ydar.

:10:15.:10:17.

That's all from me for the loment. I'll have the headlines at dight.

:10:18.:10:20.

With more of today's stories, here's Sally.

:10:21.:10:22.

will pay themselves. Still to come in this evening's

:10:23.:10:25.

South Today: where are the women? We take a look at a lack of felale

:10:26.:10:28.

coaches in sport. The Mary Rose, Henry VIII's warship,

:10:29.:10:37.

is one of the nation's most famous and precious pieces of history ` now

:10:38.:10:41.

conserved in a purpose built museum in Portsmouth. While most pdople

:10:42.:10:45.

have heard of the Mary Rose, some feel the amateur diver who led the

:10:46.:10:49.

search for her, Alexander McKee hasn't had the recognition he

:10:50.:10:52.

deserves. A campaign to celdbrate McKee's contribution is reaching a

:10:53.:10:55.

climax tonight with the unvdiling of a bust at the Mary Rose musdum.

:10:56.:11:07.

Briony Leyland is there. The speeches are underway and there

:11:08.:11:14.

is an expectant atmosphere. On display are some of the 19,000

:11:15.:11:18.

artefacts found with the Mary Rose. Hundreds were involved in conserving

:11:19.:11:24.

the ship. But tonight the focus is on Alexander McKee and stop without

:11:25.:11:30.

his determination the Mary Rose might never have been found.

:11:31.:11:33.

Sceptics doubted him saying he was chasing a ghost ship but Aldxander

:11:34.:11:37.

McKee always believed he cotld find the Mary Rose. A passion th`t began

:11:38.:11:40.

in childhood crew to dominate his adult life as he and his te`m of

:11:41.:11:44.

divers, Mad Mac's Marauders, searched the Solent sea bed. The

:11:45.:11:50.

most important known wreck hn north`west Europe is here. Somewhere

:11:51.:11:54.

here. And I will spend my thme on that and even if I fail I won't have

:11:55.:12:00.

wasted the time. In 1970, they found a Tudor cannon, vital evidence that

:12:01.:12:04.

the Mary Rose was there. Soon after, professional archaeologists joined

:12:05.:12:08.

the project and the tone ch`nged. Friends say Alexander McKee's role

:12:09.:12:12.

was much reduced. There werd personality clashes. No doubt about

:12:13.:12:16.

that. Eventually, he was out of the picture. In fact, on the dax the

:12:17.:12:23.

Mary Rose was raised he was only invited aboard the salvage ship with

:12:24.:12:26.

other VIPs at the insistencd of Prince Charles. The new Marx Rose

:12:27.:12:38.

Museum does have an Alexanddr McKee Gallery, telling the story of the

:12:39.:12:41.

search but campaigners wantdd a bust of him on display to focus `ttention

:12:42.:12:45.

on his role. They've raised more than ?6,000 and the museum has

:12:46.:12:49.

agreed to display it. Do you think this recognition is

:12:50.:12:53.

overdue? I actually believe that we have a lot of recognition in the

:12:54.:12:58.

museum. He is mentioned mord times than any other individual in the

:12:59.:13:01.

Museum including Henry VIII but it is lovely to have a bronze bust of a

:13:02.:13:05.

very fine man, which I'm told is very lifelike, to signify hhm and

:13:06.:13:11.

put him back in the gallery. He died in 1992, ten years after thd Mary

:13:12.:13:16.

Rose was raised. His admirers hope his contribution and spirit of

:13:17.:13:19.

adventure will now never be forgotten.

:13:20.:13:33.

Alexander McKee's widow is here She will say a few words before the bust

:13:34.:13:39.

is unveiled. Thank you very much everyone who has come here `nd to

:13:40.:13:50.

celebrate Alexander McKee. Thanks to all our dear friends. If he were

:13:51.:13:59.

here, he would stand there with a big, wicked grin on his facd and

:14:00.:14:08.

would say, I have made. I always wanted to make my mark in lhfe. So

:14:09.:14:25.

here we are. We will unveil this. APPLAUSE.

:14:26.:14:40.

Now the chief executive. I raise a toast to Alexander McKee and all who

:14:41.:14:43.

were involved in this. Alex`nder McKee.

:14:44.:14:50.

A proud day for the family. With me is one of his daughters. I think we

:14:51.:14:58.

are all thrilled that this has been created and put in the musetm and it

:14:59.:15:02.

recognises what my father and all the divers achieved in their long

:15:03.:15:09.

journey to find this ship. Overdue? It may well be but it is wonderful

:15:10.:15:17.

that it has happened. And this dominated all of your lives in your

:15:18.:15:25.

family briefly. From the agd of seven, I remember lots of

:15:26.:15:35.

conversations about it. My dad was always trying to get people to

:15:36.:15:39.

believe it was really there and then it happened and it is an am`zing

:15:40.:15:41.

thing. If thing.

:15:42.:15:51.

Well deserved recognition. Now, at what age should we think you

:15:52.:15:53.

Now, at what age should we think about retiring gracefully or just

:15:54.:15:58.

putting our feet up? Well one 75`year`old from Portsmouth has

:15:59.:16:00.

decided to enter a solo transatlantic yacht race.

:16:01.:16:04.

Reassuringly, he does have ` little previous experience. He is none

:16:05.:16:09.

other than national sailing legend Sir Robin Knox`Johnston ` the first

:16:10.:16:12.

man ever to sail around the world, nonstop, on his own. Steve Humphrey

:16:13.:16:17.

went to meet him. He is a British sailing legdnd and

:16:18.:16:21.

now, just weeks after celebrating his 75th birthday, Sir Robin

:16:22.:16:23.

Knox`Johnston has announced he's unfurling his sails and emb`rking on

:16:24.:16:30.

another big voyage. He will be competing in the prestigious

:16:31.:16:34.

transatlantic Route De Rhum race. Some people would say at thd age of

:16:35.:16:38.

75 you should be putting on the slippers and mooching around, not

:16:39.:16:43.

doing epic adventures like this Boring. That would be terrible. I

:16:44.:16:48.

don't think I could bear it. I really couldn't. I've got a very low

:16:49.:16:52.

threshold for boredom. And once I get an idea in my head I tend to

:16:53.:16:57.

rush along and do it. You don't hear of many 75`year`old heading off on

:16:58.:17:00.

that kind of race but knowing Robin I wasn't surprised. He just can t

:17:01.:17:04.

keep still and good on him. In 969 he sailed into the record books

:17:05.:17:10.

watched by millions on TV. @nd Robin Knox Johnston has sailed nonstop

:17:11.:17:16.

around the world. Now 45 ye`rs later he is going to race 3500 miles from

:17:17.:17:20.

Saint Marlowe in France to Guadaloupe in the Caribbean. I did

:17:21.:17:28.

the Sydney Hobart this year and so enjoyed it. I realised how luch I

:17:29.:17:33.

had missed the excitement of ocean racing. I like single handing anyway

:17:34.:17:36.

and I've got my own boat. I thought it was ridiculous. I've got the

:17:37.:17:40.

boat, I might as well use it. He will be competing in the Rotte De

:17:41.:17:47.

Rhum in this open 60 yacht. It's the same one that he sailed

:17:48.:17:49.

single`handedly around the world seven years ago in the VELUX race.

:17:50.:17:53.

My boat is a good, strong, well`built boat and I have

:17:54.:17:56.

confidence in her and I think that's very important and I've got time to

:17:57.:17:59.

get her ready properly. He'll be starting the race on Novembdr the

:18:00.:18:15.

2nd. Sport now.

:18:16.:18:21.

Last night we reported the comments of Hampshire batsman Michael

:18:22.:18:24.

Carberry, where he criticisdd the England management for freezing him

:18:25.:18:38.

out. Well, his county chairlan Rod Bransgrove has now joined the

:18:39.:18:42.

debate. Speaking at last night's BBC Radio Solent cricket forum,

:18:43.:18:44.

Bransgrove indicated that C`rberry's quotes in a newspaper interview are

:18:45.:18:47.

likely to put a dent in the player's chance of England selection going

:18:48.:18:52.

forward. I don't think from Michael's point

:18:53.:18:55.

of view that these comments will necessarily assist his caredr. We

:18:56.:18:58.

don't have an administration that really welcomes appraisal or

:18:59.:19:01.

criticism and I don't suppose those comments will be particularly well

:19:02.:19:02.

received, as constructive are comments will be particularly well

:19:03.:19:03.

received, as constructive or helpful as the maybe in the right forum You

:19:04.:19:15.

can hear that on the BBC sport website.

:19:16.:19:17.

There are only three days to go until the world's most famots horse

:19:18.:19:21.

race ` the Grand National. For Berkshire trainer Nicky Henderson,

:19:22.:19:23.

it's one big prize that's always eluded him. But he says this year is

:19:24.:19:27.

his best chance of winning the Aintree showpiece. For the first

:19:28.:19:30.

time, Henderson has four horses in the race, and as Lewis Coombes found

:19:31.:19:34.

out bright and early in Lambourn this morning, final preparations

:19:35.:19:36.

have gone well. It's the side of the Grand National

:19:37.:19:40.

few get to see. A canter as morning breaks over Berkshire's Racdcourse

:19:41.:19:42.

Valley. Leading from the front ` Hunt Ball, Triolo D'Alene,

:19:43.:19:45.

Shakalakaboomboom and Long Run ` finely tuned to perform just when it

:19:46.:19:53.

matters. The Grand National was something completely differdnt. You

:19:54.:19:55.

are asking a horse a differdnt question and I think first `nd

:19:56.:19:59.

foremost is I want all of them home safe and sound. After 33 fahled

:20:00.:20:08.

attempts, this is another chance to win the one that's so far got away.

:20:09.:20:14.

We have had several shots and we've been close. We have had four

:20:15.:20:19.

realistic horses who have h`d chances. We have gone too long

:20:20.:20:25.

without winning so we'll just take it as it comes. The horses will be

:20:26.:20:30.

transported to Liverpool on Friday. But even premier athletes nded time

:20:31.:20:36.

to relax. With this the most gruelling of races, for those

:20:37.:20:40.

closest to them, this is also a time for worry. This is as big as it

:20:41.:20:44.

gets, really, being involved with a horse and going to the National I'm

:20:45.:20:48.

so soft over this horse. He is my pride and joy so I want to come home

:20:49.:20:53.

safe. For Henderson, it's bden a case of close but no cigar.

:20:54.:20:57.

Runner`up twice and two years ago Shakalakaboomboom was winning with

:20:58.:21:00.

just two fences to go, before fading. After an illustrious career

:21:01.:21:06.

there's still one trophy missing. We have been close enough a few times

:21:07.:21:10.

but it would be nice to win one before it's all over. Find out

:21:11.:21:23.

Saturday if its 34th time ltcky In Rugby Union, London Irish have

:21:24.:21:26.

signed second row forward Sdan Cox from Edinburgh for next season.

:21:27.:21:34.

When you think of the great sports coaches of recent generations, the

:21:35.:21:37.

household names, who springs to mind? Sir Alex Ferguson? Sir Clive

:21:38.:21:40.

Woodward? But what about top female coaches? Maybe not many. Whx is

:21:41.:21:43.

that? Tonight, Alexis Green brings us the first of her reports on

:21:44.:21:47.

what other things am I doing? Got kids. A Government survey stggests

that only 25% of all coaches are female. And of all qualified coaches

only 17% are female. The nulber of women gaining a qualification above

and there's only three females on that course out of 13, so it shows

you the lack of females in the coaching environment.

to county training, it's normally just me. Probably because more boys

like sport, and girls like doing other things. Tears of Joy from

Jessica Ennis. We are all f`miliar with successful sportswomen but what

:23:24.:23:26.

we don't see that often is dlite female sports coaches and m`ybe that

:23:27.:23:31.

is a problem for young women today. If we had more women coaches that

:23:32.:23:35.

would be more inspiring for girls to obviously continue doing sport as

:23:36.:23:38.

there would be more role models for the girls to look up to. We need

:23:39.:23:45.

to, like, change the stereotype and what it is viewed as, as sport, and

:23:46.:23:49.

improve that so more girls want to play just like the boys do. John

increasing the amount of wolen coaches. He believes the big

:24:00.:24:04.

difference between the sexes is confidence. I know we should avoid

:24:05.:24:08.

generalities but it is true that often men think they can do

:24:09.:24:12.

something till they are proven wrong and women think they can't do

:24:13.:24:15.

something until they are proven wrong. So women often lack

:24:16.:24:18.

confidence to come forward hnto the coaching world. Next week, we talk

:24:19.:24:26.

to a woman who has made it to the top in her field. Pretty good. And

:24:27.:24:32.

we find out what is being done to increase the number of female
