Hello and welcome to South Today News at Six - so it's | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
Hello and welcome to South Today from Oxford. In tonight's | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
programme: A police officer whose mistake | :00:00. | :00:20. | |
prevented a murderer from standing trial resigns. Also tonight, claims | :00:21. | :00:30. | |
that we are facing a housing crisis unless more properties are built. | :00:31. | :00:37. | |
The cars are the stars as Silverstone celebrates 50 years of | :00:38. | :00:42. | |
grumpy racing. And later on, keep it in the family, for generations | :00:43. | :00:50. | |
working on a farm. `` for generations. Good evening. A lease | :00:51. | :01:07. | |
officer has resigned from the force. He was seen to have broken these | :01:08. | :01:16. | |
rules after a man never faced trial for murder despite having led | :01:17. | :01:23. | |
detectives to the body. The officer always said he did what he thought | :01:24. | :01:28. | |
was right. This taxi driver had admitted killing the women from | :01:29. | :01:34. | |
Swindon before telling detectives he had murdered a second woman in 2002. | :01:35. | :01:40. | |
The officer failed to caution him and he came to a police station. He | :01:41. | :01:47. | |
claimed this was because he wanted to appeal to the conscience of the | :01:48. | :01:54. | |
Keller. It was the fact he was prepared to give me his keys as | :01:55. | :02:00. | |
evidence, we drove at that point of time to the location where he took | :02:01. | :02:07. | |
me to a field at the cross roads. We were able to cross the wall of the | :02:08. | :02:15. | |
field and he was able to piece out an exact spot to where he said he | :02:16. | :02:22. | |
had buried a young girl. The man was given life in 2012 for one telling | :02:23. | :02:28. | |
but was never prosecuted over the other death. Despite this, the | :02:29. | :02:32. | |
mother of the dead girl always supported what the police officer | :02:33. | :02:37. | |
dead. He broke the rules but I will stand by him. He did what he did to | :02:38. | :02:45. | |
bring two girls back to their family. He was allowed to keep his | :02:46. | :02:55. | |
job but for months on has decided to resign. | :02:56. | :03:07. | |
programme: A 26`year`old man's been arrested | :03:08. | :03:11. | |
after a woman reported she was raped in Oxford this morning. Police were | :03:12. | :03:14. | |
called to George Street Mews in the city centre, and also to South Park, | :03:15. | :03:18. | |
at around 3:15 this morning. The areas were cordoned off. The man | :03:19. | :03:20. | |
remains in custody. Oxford Brookes has been named as one | :03:21. | :03:24. | |
of more than 20 universities to have deducted a full day's pay from staff | :03:25. | :03:28. | |
who joined a two`hour walkout over wages. Members of the University and | :03:29. | :03:31. | |
College Union staged a protest in Oxford earlier this year, angry at a | :03:32. | :03:35. | |
pay rise of 1%. The union says it?s written to a total of 26 | :03:36. | :03:38. | |
universities, demanding the money is returned to its members. Brookes | :03:39. | :03:46. | |
says it will respond, but doesn't pay staff for partial performance. | :03:47. | :03:57. | |
A shortage of housing in our region is pushing house prices and private | :03:58. | :04:00. | |
rents out of reach for local workers according to a new report. The | :04:01. | :04:03. | |
National Housing Federation claims the situation is reaching crisis | :04:04. | :04:06. | |
point and wants more affordable homes to be built. A recent study | :04:07. | :04:09. | |
has suggested Oxfordshire needs an extra 5,000 houses to be built every | :04:10. | :04:13. | |
year until 2031. Tom Turrell has more details. | :04:14. | :04:19. | |
We have never had so many viewings and telephone calls as we have that | :04:20. | :04:28. | |
in the most recent days. 1700 homes will be built on this site by 2021. | :04:29. | :04:38. | |
This is known as affordable housing and in a new report published by the | :04:39. | :04:43. | |
organisation which represents housing associations, it says we | :04:44. | :04:49. | |
need more of them. There is not enough affordable housing. There are | :04:50. | :04:54. | |
not enough homes being built to meet demand. This is causing problems for | :04:55. | :05:00. | |
families all across the county. Wires affordable housing such a big | :05:01. | :05:11. | |
deal? The average house costs 11% more now than three years ago. The | :05:12. | :05:18. | |
average wage means people cannot afford to buy. The wider plan by | :05:19. | :05:26. | |
councils is to build 18,000 homes in Oxfordshire by 2031. The prospect of | :05:27. | :05:32. | |
paving over large swathes of Oxford's green and pleasant land is | :05:33. | :05:39. | |
causing worries. We need to think carefully about the quality of the | :05:40. | :05:44. | |
housing and where it goes. We think there must be a way to have a | :05:45. | :05:49. | |
grown`up debate about this without sacrificing our countryside and the | :05:50. | :05:53. | |
landscape. That is why most people want to live here in the first | :05:54. | :05:58. | |
place. Homes these days are getting harder and harder to afford but | :05:59. | :06:03. | |
quite where and how many new ones we build is likely to be fought over | :06:04. | :06:10. | |
for some time yet. The issue of new homes is one of the battle grounds | :06:11. | :06:16. | |
of the main parties. Our political reporter is with me now. Housing is | :06:17. | :06:21. | |
an issue that is dividing opinion, isn't it? It says. People are going | :06:22. | :06:27. | |
to be concerned about where the new houses might go. If we take the | :06:28. | :06:33. | |
three areas that are up or election at the moment, there are different | :06:34. | :06:39. | |
risks for different areas. Oxford city is petty small, surrounded by | :06:40. | :06:45. | |
green belt, house prices are high. People cannot afford to buy here. `` | :06:46. | :06:51. | |
pretty small. Do you try to get people to live outside city limits? | :06:52. | :06:58. | |
In West Oxfordshire it is village is that are concerned. Large numbers of | :06:59. | :07:04. | |
new houses could fundamentally change the character of where people | :07:05. | :07:10. | |
live. And around West it is pretty well accepted there could be more | :07:11. | :07:17. | |
homes but some villages have found they have to take hundreds of new | :07:18. | :07:24. | |
homes because the secretary of state says they can be built there but | :07:25. | :07:28. | |
there is concern whether the infrastructure will cope. More than | :07:29. | :07:41. | |
300 temporary and permanent Honda workers are using `` losing their | :07:42. | :07:47. | |
jobs. 99 redundancies are compulsory. Up to ?1000 is being | :07:48. | :07:55. | |
offered for vandals who daubed graffiti in a park. Parish | :07:56. | :08:02. | |
councillors in Kennington have Dolby graffiti obscene. There will be a | :08:03. | :08:07. | |
report to find out who is behind it and lead to a prosecution. It is | :08:08. | :08:13. | |
costing us money and the obscenities on the young children's play | :08:14. | :08:18. | |
equipment are unacceptable. The people who are doing it have not got | :08:19. | :08:26. | |
any sense. This year marks the 50th anniversary of the British Grand | :08:27. | :08:37. | |
Prix at Silverstone. A mecca of motor sport. No other circuit in the | :08:38. | :08:43. | |
world has seen Formula one's best battle it out for so long. The | :08:44. | :08:50. | |
summer of celebrations is planned. It will be open to fans the day | :08:51. | :08:59. | |
before first practice. It was hopefully magic. To win a British | :09:00. | :09:11. | |
Grand Prix was a very cherished memory. We had the wonderful | :09:12. | :09:16. | |
afternoon. Everyone went home happy. My dad never won the British Grand | :09:17. | :09:25. | |
Prix despite coming close. The stars in the cars might have changed but | :09:26. | :09:30. | |
the appeal for those taking part remains just as strong. The current | :09:31. | :09:35. | |
crop want to write their own names in the history books for themselves | :09:36. | :09:43. | |
and for the teams based nearby. The UK is the home of Formula one. I | :09:44. | :09:51. | |
live in the UK. We will get the lot of people from the factory in the | :09:52. | :09:57. | |
grandstand and that is nice. A lot of fans love motor sport, they come | :09:58. | :10:03. | |
here early in the morning and leave late in the evening. Success at | :10:04. | :10:18. | |
Silverstone still tastes sweet. The museums at night festival in | :10:19. | :10:22. | |
Oxfordshire and across the country runs from today for the next four | :10:23. | :10:27. | |
days. There will be a special television programme this weekend. | :10:28. | :10:35. | |
It is on this weekend on Saturday on BBC Two. 500 museums, galleries and | :10:36. | :10:41. | |
historic places up and down the country will open after hours for | :10:42. | :10:46. | |
special nocturnal events. Our programme is called museums at | :10:47. | :10:52. | |
night. That is all from me for the moment. I will have the headlines | :10:53. | :10:57. | |
just before eight. Now over to Sally. | :10:58. | :11:41. | |
They appeared his food pipe during an operation that lasted nearly four | :11:42. | :11:53. | |
hours. Surgery damaged his boys. I could not eat at all. That is when | :11:54. | :12:00. | |
they decided to cut the whole software gets out and then I had | :12:01. | :12:05. | |
problems after that. Doctors told him he had the condition which eats | :12:06. | :12:11. | |
the flesh. Another operation followed, this time using tissue | :12:12. | :12:16. | |
from his neck and the skin from a pig. We went into hospital one day | :12:17. | :12:25. | |
thinking this was not good but we were surprised pleasantly he had | :12:26. | :12:29. | |
improved slightly. The next day we would go in hoping it would be | :12:30. | :12:34. | |
better but sometimes his health would plummet. It was day by day. | :12:35. | :12:42. | |
Since 2012 he has lost four stones in weight. I could have yours or I | :12:43. | :12:54. | |
could have days. That is why I am appealing for some help. `` years or | :12:55. | :13:02. | |
days. Somebody could help me out. In England or America. His condition is | :13:03. | :13:08. | |
controlled with steroids and chemotherapy. And experts said | :13:09. | :13:16. | |
stabilising his condition is the best way forward. Many of the | :13:17. | :13:25. | |
conditions we suffer from we cannot actually cure but we can at least | :13:26. | :13:32. | |
alleviate them or compress them. He is trying to contact the other | :13:33. | :13:41. | |
sufferers of his condition, he believes they can shed more light on | :13:42. | :13:47. | |
this condition by sharing information. Now onto the weather. | :13:48. | :13:54. | |
Tony is at Goodwood for not the racing but for all. The big question | :13:55. | :14:04. | |
is, are we going to see the tips you have managed to pick up today? You | :14:05. | :14:15. | |
can try! The main tip I have had is to practice more. It is a beautiful | :14:16. | :14:23. | |
evening. There are two courses here and a lot of very good young players | :14:24. | :14:31. | |
coming through. Today the experts were here to give tips on how to | :14:32. | :14:40. | |
make it in the expert game. I am on the 18th. Let's get up to the green. | :14:41. | :14:47. | |
While we do that, another line of sports news, Southampton defender | :14:48. | :14:55. | |
Luke Shaw has been talking about his delight at being called into the | :14:56. | :15:01. | |
World Cup squad. He will be on the plane to New York at the time when | :15:02. | :15:08. | |
he is being linked to the move to Manchester United. `` on the plane | :15:09. | :15:24. | |
to Rio. I did not want to overthink and say that I was definitely going | :15:25. | :15:31. | |
but when the squad came out and I saw I was in it my family and I were | :15:32. | :15:38. | |
just sitting there thinking, wow, I am 18 years old and going to the | :15:39. | :15:44. | |
World Cup. Now, we are bunkered! This would take a little bit of | :15:45. | :15:49. | |
skill and boys, perhaps professional prowess. I can have the ball but I | :15:50. | :15:59. | |
can warn you my bunker play is not fantastic. We are out, that will do. | :16:00. | :16:06. | |
Justin Rose can do a lot better than that. Some of the Academy juniors | :16:07. | :16:14. | |
here are the brightest prospects in golf. For a man who grew up in the | :16:15. | :16:22. | |
South it is fond times for him to come back here. Justin Rose flew in | :16:23. | :16:29. | |
from Florida and was straight onto the course to provide these | :16:30. | :16:36. | |
youngsters with golfing tips. It was very impressive how the hit shots. I | :16:37. | :16:44. | |
remember being in a similar position when I was about eight years old. I | :16:45. | :16:52. | |
was trembling. I have a lot of respect for them. This 16`year`old | :16:53. | :17:00. | |
was Europe's number one in his age group. Yellow macro they said to | :17:01. | :17:07. | |
just keep working hard and obviously you have got to work hard if you are | :17:08. | :17:14. | |
going to get there. Being back on home soil stirs the memories. It | :17:15. | :17:23. | |
makes me smile. Some of those days were the best of my life. I played | :17:24. | :17:31. | |
purely for the love of the game. It gets more complicated the higher the | :17:32. | :17:36. | |
level you get. It makes media lies that I loved it and why I started | :17:37. | :17:42. | |
playing in the first place. `` it makes me realise why I loved it. It | :17:43. | :17:52. | |
does not make it any easier on a Thursday, Friday or Saturday but if | :17:53. | :17:57. | |
you find yourself down the stretch on the Sunday you have a lot of | :17:58. | :18:02. | |
positive experiences to draw from. Real champions, however busy, make | :18:03. | :18:07. | |
time for others. His contribution here today has proven to be an | :18:08. | :18:15. | |
inspiration for so many. Now, Tony, what is it now? The double bogey? At | :18:16. | :18:33. | |
least! Here we go. Though! That is not too bad, is it? Enjoy yourself! | :18:34. | :18:46. | |
Now, Roger then has been to visit a farm in the new Forest. In many | :18:47. | :18:52. | |
ways, a perfectly ordinary family farm. There is one thing that makes | :18:53. | :18:58. | |
this farm unique as far as we know. For generations of the same family | :18:59. | :19:17. | |
share the work. Another busy morning at the farm. This man is the farmer | :19:18. | :19:27. | |
here now but his dad still rules his weight. Despite his 93 years, his | :19:28. | :19:34. | |
grandfather is never far away. We still work together. They keep me in | :19:35. | :19:41. | |
touch with what is happening. I was born down there in 1920. I went to | :19:42. | :19:51. | |
the war and when we came back we started it up. It is the life of the | :19:52. | :20:00. | |
poor man and if you are pure you are happy. To his delight, the fourth | :20:01. | :20:05. | |
generation is now showing a keen interest. The family run the mixed | :20:06. | :20:14. | |
farm with 140 head of cattle. Today, some are being worsened. Others are | :20:15. | :20:19. | |
being driven out to take advantage of the ancient right to graze | :20:20. | :20:26. | |
animals freely. They are just out there for the night and they will be | :20:27. | :20:35. | |
back again in the morning. Back in the lambing yard, something has been | :20:36. | :20:44. | |
spotted. A little medical. We fed them this morning, we have been in | :20:45. | :20:50. | |
twice since then and nothing. All of a sudden you have got the perfect | :20:51. | :21:03. | |
fall. `` perfect lamb. At one time I would have known everybody in the | :21:04. | :21:08. | |
village. Everyone would have known me. Now I know half of them. I can | :21:09. | :21:20. | |
remember when the first car came. We would go to school and stand down at | :21:21. | :21:26. | |
the bottom watching it coming down the road. We cut the gas and did | :21:27. | :21:38. | |
everything. Now if we put the grass cutter on the would not know what to | :21:39. | :21:49. | |
do. `` graphs cutter. According to his dad, the youngest member of the | :21:50. | :21:58. | |
family is tracked mad. `` tractor mad. What is the trickiest thing you | :21:59. | :22:12. | |
have ever had to do? Sometimes it sticks together and will not work. | :22:13. | :22:20. | |
It can be a bit scary sometimes. Some kids might read comic magazines | :22:21. | :22:28. | |
like he leads the farming magazine, he loves anything to do with | :22:29. | :22:33. | |
tractors. Being born here it is read into you. What is it like having the | :22:34. | :22:41. | |
advice of your father and grandfather? It is useful, the pain | :22:42. | :22:51. | |
at times but on the whole good. The youngest generation have another | :22:52. | :22:56. | |
job. This lamb was one of triplets, its mother could feed only to but, | :22:57. | :23:04. | |
like the farm, it is in safe hands. Now, as you know, there have been | :23:05. | :23:11. | |
some strange tools that Roger has been rummaging through. He has been | :23:12. | :23:17. | |
challenging us to guess what they are. He showed us a glass bottle and | :23:18. | :23:29. | |
just a few of you did get it right. The odd looking glass bottle was the | :23:30. | :23:36. | |
elite preserver. Fill it with water and it keeps them fresh. This is | :23:37. | :23:46. | |
wood, metal, what is it? Have a guess on our Facebook page and we | :23:47. | :23:52. | |
will reveal the answer next week. I suspect somebody will know what that | :23:53. | :23:59. | |
is. I have not a clue! Now the weather. A beautiful today is in | :24:00. | :24:04. | |
store but then it all goes downhill on Sunday after the weekend. Through | :24:05. | :24:21. | |
the course of tonight we will see the sky is clear in places and | :24:22. | :24:27. | |
temperatures fall away. Today we saw lovely highs of 20 Celsius. Through | :24:28. | :24:35. | |
the course of tonight we will see temperatures fall away into single | :24:36. | :24:40. | |
figures. There will be the risk of one or two mist patches. Through the | :24:41. | :24:46. | |
course of tonight temperatures will drop in our towns and cities to | :24:47. | :24:52. | |
around seven or eight Celsius. The wind will be fairly light. You are | :24:53. | :24:58. | |
more likely to see the mist and fog patches in parts of Dorset and | :24:59. | :25:04. | |
Wiltshire. Lots of sunshine on offer through tomorrow. Temperatures will | :25:05. | :25:10. | |
soar into the low 20s. Tomorrow perhaps up to 21. The wind will once | :25:11. | :25:20. | |
again be fairly light. The sunshine may turn he's the tomorrow | :25:21. | :25:28. | |
afternoon. Again cloud will melt away overnight and temperatures will | :25:29. | :25:35. | |
drop to around ten or 11 Celsius. A lovely start to Saturday, lots of | :25:36. | :25:41. | |
sunshine and high pressure is still in charge of our weather. The change | :25:42. | :25:49. | |
comes about later on on Sunday. There may be one or two showers | :25:50. | :25:56. | |
through the course of the day on Sunday. Still the risk of shower | :25:57. | :26:03. | |
also on Saturday for eastern areas. Mostly settled with lots of | :26:04. | :26:07. | |
sunshine. Temperatures tomorrow possibly 21 selfie is, on Saturday | :26:08. | :26:14. | |
in some areas potentially up to 23 Celsius. That is it from ours. `` | :26:15. | :26:23. | |
from ours. Good evening. Good night. at the European elections | :26:24. | :26:54. | |
on May the 22nd. even though that would wreck | :26:55. | :27:03. | |
the recovery and destroy jobs. The Conservatives | :27:04. | :27:10. | |
are now openly flirting with exit. | :27:11. | :27:15. |
