Hello. Good evening. One of the UK's stories on the BBC News Channel.

:00:00.:00:17.

Hello. Good evening. One of the UK's main underground oil pipes has been

:00:18.:00:20.

shut down as Hampshire Police investigate whether tens of

:00:21.:00:22.

thousands of litres of fuel have been extracted from it. Police were

:00:23.:00:26.

called to the scene at West Wellow on Thursday after a large quantity

:00:27.:00:30.

of fuel was found in an industrial storage unit. Two men from Salisbury

:00:31.:00:35.

are being held in custody tonight. It's understood detectives are

:00:36.:00:37.

investigating whether the fuel was extracted from a pipeline running

:00:38.:00:44.

from the Esso refinery at Fawley. An East Hampshire man has brought a

:00:45.:00:48.

war memorial to life by delving into the backgrounds of those recorded

:00:49.:00:51.

there. John Hill has spent more than a year researching over 50

:00:52.:00:53.

individuals whose names appear on the Grayshott War Memorial.

:00:54.:00:59.

Behind every name on this memorial there was a life, there is a story.

:01:00.:01:07.

This is the man who is responsible for allowing each of those stories

:01:08.:01:12.

to be told. They say there is a book in everyone and retired solicitor

:01:13.:01:16.

John Hill felt this was his. It has been a labour of love. It has been

:01:17.:01:19.

hard work but absolutely fascinating. Very interesting

:01:20.:01:22.

finding out the stories of these people who died, so much so I feel I

:01:23.:01:29.

know a lot of them personally. We Will Remember You delves into the

:01:30.:01:32.

past of 51 men spanning both world wars and the Falklands campaign. The

:01:33.:01:37.

last name in the book Lieutenant Commander David Balfour. He was on

:01:38.:01:45.

the HMS Sheffield. He fought in this campaign. 20 people died when it was

:01:46.:01:48.

hit by a missile. His body has never been recovered. By bringing to life

:01:49.:01:56.

the memory of those names on the stone it's hoped the book will

:01:57.:01:59.

provide a more tangible memorial to those men who made the ultimate

:02:00.:02:06.

sacrifice serving their country. As part of the Queen's birthday

:02:07.:02:08.

celebrations, Awards for Enterprise have been announced. This year,

:02:09.:02:11.

recognition has gone to an Oxford company that's helped provide clean

:02:12.:02:14.

water to millions of people in Africa.

:02:15.:02:21.

In Kenya, the cleanliness of water can be the difference between life

:02:22.:02:25.

and death. ClimateCare in Oxford have developed a simple water

:02:26.:02:27.

cleanser that's helped around five million people. We hope this will

:02:28.:02:39.

help us to increase the impact and to develop more projects and

:02:40.:02:43.

increase our impact on the environment. Some staff are based in

:02:44.:02:50.

the Oxford office, others in Kenya. In days gone by that may have caused

:02:51.:02:53.

communication issues but modern technology means all workers can

:02:54.:02:57.

keep in touch. It is pretty easy. We are very used to Skype calls. We

:02:58.:03:00.

have daily contact with the guys in Nairobi. Bosses believe they are

:03:01.:03:05.

making a difference. ClimateCare's work improving air quality also

:03:06.:03:13.

helped them win the award. Onto football, and it's getting

:03:14.:03:19.

tense for our Championship teams. Promotion chasing Brighton Hove

:03:20.:03:22.

Albion are in the last of the promotion play`off places after a

:03:23.:03:25.

1`1 draw against Blackpool. Bournemouth's hopes of reaching the

:03:26.:03:28.

play`offs have all but faded after a 2`2 draw with Ipswich. Reading, who

:03:29.:03:31.

can still make the play`offs, have a crucial match against Middlesbrough

:03:32.:03:34.

tomorrow. In League One, MK Dons stay in tenth spot after a 2`2 draw

:03:35.:03:37.

against Brentford. Swindon kept their slim hopes of a promotion

:03:38.:03:40.

play`off place alive with a 1`1 win over Bradford. `` 1`0 win.

:03:41.:03:49.

Portsmouth's renaissance under new manager Andy Awford continues. They

:03:50.:03:52.

beat Northampton to move into 13th place and also secure their place in

:03:53.:03:55.

League Two. Meanwhile, Oxford United are in eighth place after losing 1`0

:03:56.:03:56.

at Scunthorpe. It will be fairly unsettled over the

:03:57.:04:09.

next few days with the possibility of thunderstorms tonight. There will

:04:10.:04:13.

be some showers last thing for much of the night which could be heavy.

:04:14.:04:18.

Those could merge into longer spells of rain but it will be frost free.

:04:19.:04:24.

We are looking at those showers continuing tomorrow on and off, more

:04:25.:04:28.

likely to be more frequent during the morning, so few and far between

:04:29.:04:33.

during the afternoon with the showers drifting northwards. These

:04:34.:04:39.

could be heavy and thundery like today, but temperatures will reach

:04:40.:04:47.

14, possibly 15 Celsius. Today we've each 18 or 19 degrees, so

:04:48.:04:52.

temperatures not as high. There will be some sunshine during the

:04:53.:04:56.

afternoon. The rest of the week is fairly unsettled with rain at times.

:04:57.:04:59.

Showers moving through on Wednesday. After last year's called Easter we

:05:00.:05:15.

managed the warmest day of the
