:00:00. > :00:00.you can head to our website. Now on BBC One we join
:00:00. > :00:07.Hello and welcome to South Today from Oxford. In tonight's programme:
:00:08. > :00:10.Fewer burglaries, fewer thefts. Police say crime in the Thales
:00:11. > :00:15.Valley is at its lowest levdl for quarter of a century.
:00:16. > :00:22.Also: Guilty of child sex charges. In the US, an Oxford man is jailed
:00:23. > :00:25.for 17 years. And the charm offensive ` Royal
:00:26. > :00:30.approval for a centre teachhng the military the language of diplomacy.
:00:31. > :00:31.Later on: the man who taught the world to fly ` recognition for the
:00:32. > :00:48.WW1 pilot who saved countless lives. Good evening.
:00:49. > :00:52.It's claimed crime in the Thames Valley is at its lowest levdl in 25
:00:53. > :00:55.years. That's according to new figures ` released by policd. The
:00:56. > :00:58.report points to a drop in burglaries and theft, althotgh
:00:59. > :01:01.there's been a sharp rise in the number of recorded sexual offences.
:01:02. > :01:03.Some crime experts say the figures can't be relied on as they lay not
:01:04. > :01:14.take into account cyber crile. On the surface, these figurds make
:01:15. > :01:17.for excellent reading both for the police and of course people who live
:01:18. > :01:25.in the Thames Valley. There were 127,500 reported crimes in the year
:01:26. > :01:28.ending March 2014. The lowest amount since 1989, when there were about
:01:29. > :01:31.119,000. You may think this means we're now much safer but I've spoken
:01:32. > :01:40.to some criminologists and they say, not necessarily. These local figures
:01:41. > :01:45.don't take into account an dxplosion in online crimes ` like credit card
:01:46. > :01:48.fraud. I asked the Deputy Chief Constable if today's report just
:01:49. > :01:50.proves criminals have simplx changed tactics.
:01:51. > :01:53.The reality is that with online crime, it could be committed
:01:54. > :02:00.anywhere in the world. But the victims could be based in this
:02:01. > :02:03.country. My view is that whdn most people think about crime, they are
:02:04. > :02:08.thinking: am I safe in my community? Am I safe on my street? Is ly car
:02:09. > :02:11.safe when I leave it? The fhgures released today show that in Thames
:02:12. > :02:15.Valley, you are safer than xou ever have been for the last 40 ydars
:02:16. > :02:20.The report shows violent crhme is at about the same level as last year,
:02:21. > :02:23.car theft is down. There was a sharp rise in recorded sexual offdnces,
:02:24. > :02:27.from fewer than 2000 last ydar to more than 2,500 this year. @n
:02:28. > :02:33.increase of 30%, which police say is reflected in other parts of the
:02:34. > :02:36.country. A lot of this is historic c`ses that
:02:37. > :02:40.might have happened decades ago which are now just coming onto our
:02:41. > :02:46.crime records. So it is not an indication that people are not safe
:02:47. > :02:50.in the Thames Valley. Officdrs say they've managed to cut crimd despite
:02:51. > :02:58.cuts to their own Budget. The debate about how reliable their figures are
:02:59. > :03:02.will go on. The use of tasers by police in the
:03:03. > :03:05.South has more than doubled ` with more officers being armed whth the
:03:06. > :03:08.weapon over the past 12 months. An investigation by BBC South found
:03:09. > :03:11.that the controversial 'stun guns' have been drawn by officers in
:03:12. > :03:14.hundreds of situations when they perceive they're under thre`t.
:03:15. > :03:17.Thames Valley Police now has five times as many officers carrxing
:03:18. > :03:20.tasers on the streets each day, compared with just a year ago.
:03:21. > :03:28.They've also used tasers a number of times on dogs.
:03:29. > :03:30.It seems a bit harsh to me to be knocking people out.
:03:31. > :03:33.My generation has grown up without armed police. It's not something I'd
:03:34. > :03:34.go for. They need to protect themselves so
:03:35. > :03:53.I can't really see a problel. An Oxford man ` who travelldd to the
:03:54. > :03:56.States to have sex with a 13`year`old girl he met on the
:03:57. > :04:00.internet ` has been sentencdd to 17 years in a federal prison. Nicholas
:04:01. > :04:04.Cheese ` who is 27 ` met thd girl when she was 12 on an internet chat
:04:05. > :04:08.room in 2012. Authorities s`y he travelled to Bangor in Maind to meet
:04:09. > :04:11.her. He pleaded guilty to a charge of producing child pornography,
:04:12. > :04:13.because he filmed one of thd assaults.
:04:14. > :04:16.Police in Swindon have launched an investigation ` after cars, road
:04:17. > :04:18.signs and some pavements were spray painted with Swastikas. Twenty were
:04:19. > :04:21.identified in various locathons in the town including Frobisher Drive
:04:22. > :04:24.and Norfolk Close. Officers have been talking to residents and are
:04:25. > :04:37.studying CCTV footage to find out who is responsible.
:04:38. > :04:39.A new military centre near Swindon ` which will teach service personnel
:04:40. > :04:42.foreign languages and cultural differences before they travel
:04:43. > :04:45.abroad ` has been officiallx opened today. His Royal Highness Prince
:04:46. > :04:53.Michael of Kent led the cerdmony and took a tour of the site.
:04:54. > :04:56.Standing amongst this large collection of military hardware one
:04:57. > :05:02.could be forgiven for thinkhng war speaks only one language. Btt here
:05:03. > :05:05.at the new defence centre for languages and culture on thd
:05:06. > :05:09.outskirts of Swindon they tdach up to 40 languages to service personnel
:05:10. > :05:28.who are going overseas. And today is its official royal opening. Is is.
:05:29. > :05:32.It enables people to start luch earlier in their careers. It will
:05:33. > :05:41.have a huge benefit for everybody in future. I hope that if posshble
:05:42. > :05:48.more languages will be taught here. The quality of the teaching is such
:05:49. > :05:50.that it will be very infecthous His Royal Highness is not
:05:51. > :05:53.unaccustomed to the militarx's language training courses ` he
:05:54. > :06:00.studied Russian at the formdr Defence School of Languages in
:06:01. > :06:04.Beaconsfield. This new centre though has been
:06:05. > :06:06.tailored to equip the armed forces with the cultural knowledge and
:06:07. > :06:10.linguistic skills needed for a deployment abroad in the 21st
:06:11. > :06:29.century. So what do they thhnk of their new college?
:06:30. > :06:35.In all, around 200 men and women from the RAF, Army and Navy will be
:06:36. > :06:39.taught here at any one time. The hope is the better they get at
:06:40. > :06:46.talking then the less need they ll be for weapons like these.
:06:47. > :06:51.Work to build a new community hospital in Henley is now dte to get
:06:52. > :06:54.under way. The ten million pound redevelopment of the existing
:06:55. > :06:57.Townlands site will take two years. The new hospital will have
:06:58. > :07:00.in`patient and outpatient c`re ` along with x`rays and dentistry NHS
:07:01. > :07:03.Property Services ` which owns the site ` has confirmed all thd
:07:04. > :07:09.partners involved in the scheme are now signed up.
:07:10. > :07:12.A multi`million pound schemd ` to create thousands of new jobs and
:07:13. > :07:15.attract more investment in science in Oxford ` has been launchdd today.
:07:16. > :07:18.The MedCity project aims to join up medical research between Oxford
:07:19. > :07:22.Cambridge and London. It will build on work at Culham, Harwell `nd the
:07:23. > :07:26.University ` and encourage high tech firms to move into the region. More
:07:27. > :07:29.than ?3 million is being spdnt on the scheme.
:07:30. > :07:32.We have joint research projdcts between ourselves and Cambrhdge
:07:33. > :07:36.Imperial and UCL. In that sdnse it is more about raising the vhsibility
:07:37. > :07:40.of it for the good of the rdgion and the UK as a whole, rather than
:07:41. > :07:42.changing fundamentally the way we do business. Of course we have
:07:43. > :07:46.competitive rivalry with Calbridge, but we also have a lot of
:07:47. > :07:54.collaboration and that is a very fruitful tension.
:07:55. > :07:59.Next tonight: we're taking `nother look at the effects of Parkhnson's `
:08:00. > :08:04.as part of our week of spechal reports about the condition. One of
:08:05. > :08:08.the writers of hit comedies like The Vicar of Dibley and Mrs Brown's Boys
:08:09. > :08:09.has been telling us about hhs experiences, living with
:08:10. > :08:13.Parkinson's. Paul Mayhew Archer from Drayton near Abingdon, gives
:08:14. > :08:19.talks on the subject ` and has even taken up ballet.
:08:20. > :08:22.Life has literally slowed down for Paul Mayhew Archer ` even preparing
:08:23. > :08:28.the medication he needs to help control his Parkinson's takds more
:08:29. > :08:31.time than usual. Before he was diagnosed three years ago, things
:08:32. > :08:35.were very different. Having worked on some of Britain's most stccessful
:08:36. > :08:38.comedies ` humour is now helping him deal with the condition: If I'm not
:08:39. > :08:43.heading towards a joke in mx writing, I don't know where I'm
:08:44. > :08:46.going. I've always been writing jokes but
:08:47. > :08:55.without any sense of what I'm writing it for. Strangely,
:08:56. > :08:58.Parkinson's has given me a purpose. The purpose is to say, actu`lly
:08:59. > :09:02.it's not the end of the world. Some of Paul's proudest work was
:09:03. > :09:07.co`writing and producing thd hit TV series The Vicar of Dibley, starring
:09:08. > :09:09.Dawn French. He still works on comedy scripts part`time but has now
:09:10. > :09:11.started giving talks about Parkinson's across Oxfordshhre `
:09:12. > :09:14.offering encouragement and light relief. Around 5000 people here in
:09:15. > :09:25.the south region have Parkinson s, but across the UK, one person in
:09:26. > :09:29.every 500 has the condition. It doesn't mean you can't keep active
:09:30. > :09:32.though ` this dance class in Oxford started last year ` a progr`mme
:09:33. > :09:40.offered by the City Council and the English National Ballet.
:09:41. > :09:43.The programme is designed specifically around the symptoms of
:09:44. > :09:46.Parkinson's. A lot of research spend on into mobility, and what the
:09:47. > :09:50.issues are that people with Parkinson's have around bal`nce and
:09:51. > :09:53.coordination. There's still no cure for
:09:54. > :10:00.Parkinson's, but people herd are not letting it control their lives.
:10:01. > :10:05.More lives could be saved e`ch year if cyclists used a new bike light
:10:06. > :10:09.which was invented in Oxfordshire, according to a new study. The LED
:10:10. > :10:12.bike`symbol lights help cyclists to stand out from other red and white
:10:13. > :10:15.lights on the road. Researchers at Oxford University found drivers
:10:16. > :10:22.identified the symbol faster than a regular bike light ` improvhng their
:10:23. > :10:25.reaction times. If you're driving along and see the
:10:26. > :10:30.light, that millisecond givds you time to adjust and not come into my
:10:31. > :10:32.bike lane, or hit me or knock me into the pavement. That extra
:10:33. > :10:36.millisecond is the critical thing. Hopefully it will save lots of
:10:37. > :10:53.lives, and also make people feel safer driving every day.
:10:54. > :11:00.The clocks have gone for a word That's all from me. I'm back with
:11:01. > :11:11.the 8pm headlines and 10.25 bulletin.
:11:12. > :11:16.Still to come in this evening's South Today: Tony Husband is at the
:11:17. > :11:21.big Championship clash tonight. It is Bournemouth and Reading, all up
:11:22. > :11:28.for grabs. Playoff races to the one all stop the full preview coming up
:11:29. > :11:31.shortly. `` to be one. Today, they're probably better known
:11:32. > :11:35.as TARDISes than police boxds, but now Dorset police have gone back in
:11:36. > :11:39.time, to give an old idea a new lease of life. A specially built
:11:40. > :11:42.police box, based on an original design from 1929 was unveildd in
:11:43. > :11:45.Boscombe this morning. Officers say behind the Dr Who inspired fun,
:11:46. > :11:52.there's a serious attempt to tackle crime. Briony Leyland reports.
:11:53. > :11:59.When this police box materi`lised this morning, the crowd half
:12:00. > :12:04.expected Dr Who to emerge, but though Time Lords were thin on the
:12:05. > :12:07.ground, there was no shortage of top brass from Dorset police, kden to
:12:08. > :12:11.promote the idea of the past inspiring the future of polhcing, in
:12:12. > :12:17.an area where street crime hs a big issue. What we propose to do is have
:12:18. > :12:21.a member of staff stood with a police box to engage with the public
:12:22. > :12:27.and also to deter any localhsed criminality and also reduce
:12:28. > :12:32.anti`social behaviour. There was a time when policd boxes
:12:33. > :12:37.were commonplace, providing officers with a telephone to contact base.
:12:38. > :12:42.Radio is rendered them obsolete and now most people associate them with
:12:43. > :12:46.the time travelling parties from Dr Who. This box is sponsored by local
:12:47. > :12:50.businesses, one of only two operational in the UK. Can ht could
:12:51. > :12:56.still be dual purpose of totrist attraction and policing tool? It
:12:57. > :13:01.seems like a gimmick, but m`ybe it will make a difference. It hs great
:13:02. > :13:07.to have good visibility for the police. Something nice for Taurus to
:13:08. > :13:15.see and a bit of fun. Is it anything like Dr Who's TARDIS? Now! Ht is big
:13:16. > :13:21.inside and has a machine inside and it has circles on the wall. Interior
:13:22. > :13:25.facilities are basic, a shelf, first aid gear, and a telephone on the
:13:26. > :13:31.door to use at the police are not in. The box's arrival coinchdes with
:13:32. > :13:36.controversial proposals to further reduce the number of front desks
:13:37. > :13:40.open at police stations. Is this the shape of things to come? Thhs is not
:13:41. > :13:47.the future of Dorset police. This is a quirky phone box. It is hdre to
:13:48. > :13:52.make a statement but we will not be bringing these into every town and
:13:53. > :13:55.Dorset. This is not a soluthon to front office closures. Dr Who's
:13:56. > :13:59.TARDIS is not seen in one place for long, but the intention is that this
:14:00. > :14:10.will become a permanent and popular part of life here.
:14:11. > :14:15.Interesting idea, isn't it? He was the man who taught to the
:14:16. > :14:18.world to fly. And tomorrow, Robert Smith`Barry will be remembered in
:14:19. > :14:21.Gosport, where nearly 100 ydars ago he devised the first effecthve
:14:22. > :14:24.system for training pilots. Along with a flying manual, he also
:14:25. > :14:27.invented the world's first hntercom system, allowing instructors to talk
:14:28. > :14:38.to trainee pilots. As Steve Humphrey reports, it was called the Gosport
:14:39. > :14:44.Tube. A century ago, learning to fly was
:14:45. > :14:48.very dangerous. Out of the 04,0 0 British privates killed between 1914
:14:49. > :14:54.and 1918, 8000 eyed while bding trained. This man, Robert
:14:55. > :15:00.Smith`Barry, revolutionized the training system. And it all happened
:15:01. > :15:05.right here in Gosport. This used to be the site of the old Rangd
:15:06. > :15:10.airfield, and during the first world war, this was the home of a military
:15:11. > :15:15.flying school. In those days, they wrote the name of the airfidld on
:15:16. > :15:18.the grass in case pilots got lost. Smith`Barry was able to put his
:15:19. > :15:23.ideas into practice when he was put in charge of a training squ`dron
:15:24. > :15:29.here. Pilots were taught how to cope with spins and other potenthally
:15:30. > :15:34.dangerous situations. Instrtctors were given proper training, took
:15:35. > :15:38.their airports `` aircraft to the limit, and then they talked the
:15:39. > :15:42.students to do the exactly the same thing. One of his greatest
:15:43. > :15:50.contributions to flying with this, the Gosport Tube. It is a vdry
:15:51. > :15:57.simple system of rubber tubds which allowed structures `` instrtctors to
:15:58. > :16:02.talk to training pilots. But your stick in `` put your stick `nd. .
:16:03. > :16:11.They started to take the aircraft into the air. You can talk through
:16:12. > :16:16.the manoeuvre. With dual controlled aircraft, you can let the pdople
:16:17. > :16:19.have a go. The runways have been covered in houses, but some of the
:16:20. > :16:24.old hangars from the airfield are now part of the Navy's training
:16:25. > :16:30.base, where aircraft maintenance is still being taught. What yot see
:16:31. > :16:34.behind me are young engineering technicians who are going to go out
:16:35. > :16:38.to the Royal Navy and carry out that flight servicing and basic
:16:39. > :16:41.maintenance on the front line aircraft of the day. Robert
:16:42. > :16:46.Smith`Barry did a lot of his writing and research here at this hotel
:16:47. > :16:51.Tomorrow, the Gosport aviathon society will be holding a special
:16:52. > :16:58.ceremony, at which a plaque will be unveiled in memory of the m`n who
:16:59. > :17:04.taught the world to fly. Fascinating story. And if you've
:17:05. > :17:08.missed any of our World War One films you can see a selection of
:17:09. > :17:15.them again on the BBC South Today website.
:17:16. > :17:18.When a teenage girl in Dorsdt died suddenly from meningitis earlier
:17:19. > :17:20.this year, it left her friends and family shocked and devastatdd. Now
:17:21. > :17:24.they've joined together to raise funds for research into the deadly
:17:25. > :17:29.disease. The group will be taking part in a charity run next lonth in
:17:30. > :17:34.memory of her. Frankie Peck reports. This girl from Bournemouth was just
:17:35. > :17:38.16 when she contracted bactdrial meningitis. She died in Jantary At
:17:39. > :17:44.the weekend, over 20 of her friends and family gathered on the beach.
:17:45. > :17:51.They are training to take f`ce and a 10K race, where they will bd raising
:17:52. > :17:54.money for a research foundation After Connie passed, I went home and
:17:55. > :18:00.decided that I'd did not want to sit at home doing nothing, so I went on
:18:01. > :18:05.the internet to find event that we could do to help raise awardness.
:18:06. > :18:09.Hopefully, the more awareness we raise than the less people who will
:18:10. > :18:14.pass away from the disease. We are doing it as a big rebuff frhends
:18:15. > :18:19.together and we are supporthng each other like we supported each other
:18:20. > :18:26.through everything house. `` as a big group of friends. As many as one
:18:27. > :18:31.in ten cases prove fatal. There is more to it than just the rash that
:18:32. > :18:35.people think it's meningitis. Yet the literature. It does not matter
:18:36. > :18:41.how old you are or what racd you are, it does not discriminate and it
:18:42. > :18:47.kills quickly. Research `` researchers believe they max
:18:48. > :18:50.eventually eradicate the disease. Onto sport now and there's ` crucial
:18:51. > :18:54.game in the Championship tonight as Reading go to Bournemouth. The
:18:55. > :18:58.Royals have been red hot on the road in recent weeks and look a good bet
:18:59. > :19:01.for the play offs, but can @FC Bournemouth catch them? Tonx's live
:19:02. > :19:07.at Dean Court tonight and Tony, a lot's riding on this one.
:19:08. > :19:12.A buzz around Bournemouth. Great scenes here on Saturday as they eat
:19:13. > :19:20.Queens Park Rangers. While they were doing that, writing with another
:19:21. > :19:24.performance. Reading is in pole position for the playoffs and then
:19:25. > :19:28.there is a clutch of teams `nd 8 points and all of them have got
:19:29. > :19:32.playoff hopes and ambitions as we go towards the end of the season. It
:19:33. > :19:37.makes this one tonight really important. Let's have a word with
:19:38. > :19:42.both camps. Reading is a very good side. Some really good playdrs. They
:19:43. > :19:46.are in a similar position to ourselves in the sense that they are
:19:47. > :19:50.fighting for promotion and ` playoff place. We are trying to catch them
:19:51. > :19:54.so we have to go out and approached the game in the same way as we have
:19:55. > :20:00.done in recent weeks and hopefully we will get three points. It should
:20:01. > :20:05.be a full house at an excithng game of football. We are in deep playoff
:20:06. > :20:09.position. One myth can get closer to us in that respect. `` Bournemouth.
:20:10. > :20:13.They play some really good football and we believe we play good
:20:14. > :20:19.football. It should be a cr`cking game.
:20:20. > :20:23.Nigel set it up very well. The two teams played very good football and
:20:24. > :20:28.it should be a good game. It is sold out here again at Bournemouth
:20:29. > :20:34.tonight. The game for the r`dio audience as well. Let's talk to the
