A woman from Milton Keynes has written to the Prime Ministdr to ask | :00:08. | :00:11. | |
where her passport is and if he will guarantee that she will | :00:12. | :00:14. | |

Susan Hassett applied last lonth and has heard nothing since. | :00:18. | :00:19. | |

and is drafting in addition`l staff to deal with the current backlog. | :00:24. | :00:26. | |
Susan Hassett has bought a very important ticket to | :00:27. | :00:32. | |
She is flying out for the bhrth of her grandchild. | :00:33. | :00:39. | |
It is not a trip that can be delayed. | :00:40. | :00:41. | |
The problem is her passport is caught up with | :00:42. | :00:43. | |
She is worried it now will not arrive in time. | :00:44. | :00:49. | |
The birth of a grandchild is very special | :00:50. | :00:57. | |

time, to ensure that I do gdt there for the birth of my grandchhld. | :01:03. | :01:07. | |
This is not just a trip of a lifetime ` | :01:08. | :01:09. | |
The Passport Office will not pay any compensation and the loss | :01:10. | :01:16. | |
of my ticket will not be covered by my travel insurance eithdr. | :01:17. | :01:22. | |

The Government says it is the highest demand for passports | :01:33. | :01:37. | |
What is necessary is not a grand political gesture. | :01:38. | :01:44. | |
What is necessary is the slow and careful consideration wd have | :01:45. | :01:50. | |
been giving, which will now lead to urgent action | :01:51. | :01:52. | |
That urgent action involves recruiting more than 200 extra | :01:53. | :01:57. | |
The Government says that if you have urgent travel plans | :01:58. | :02:04. | |
your passport will be fast`tracked for free and British nation`ls | :02:05. | :02:08. | |
applying from abroad will bd given 12`month extensions. | :02:09. | :02:12. | |

Many of those taking part g`thered at Oxford's town hall this dvening. | :03:27. | :03:32. | |
We are showcasing the wealth of actions that will make a difference. | :03:33. | :03:35. | |
It might be changes to how xou eat, how you grow your own food, | :03:36. | :03:38. | |
It is basically saying that all of these things make a diffdrence. | :03:39. | :03:43. | |
If you decide to cycle to work one day instead of driving, if xou grow | :03:44. | :03:47. | |
your own food, if you think about draft proofing your house ` all | :03:48. | :03:50. | |
of these things will make a massive difference to improving the local | :03:51. | :03:53. | |
environment in Oxford and reducing our carbon footprint, | :03:54. | :03:55. | |
Also, these things will probably be good for your wallet | :03:56. | :04:00. | |
Now, was Hans Solo laid low by the door of the Millennium Falcon? | :04:01. | :04:08. | |
The actor Harrison Ford was taken to the John Radcliffe Hospital | :04:09. | :04:11. | |
He had broken his ankle on the set of the new Star Wars film | :04:12. | :04:15. | |
Officially, police said the actor had bden | :04:16. | :04:18. | |
injured by a garage door, btt fans of the iconic films have other ideas | :04:19. | :04:22. | |
I have a really bad feeling about this. | :04:23. | :04:28. | |
37 years after his iconic role in the original Star Wars, Han Solo has | :04:29. | :04:34. | |
I'm sure Luke wasn't on that thing when it blew. | :04:35. | :04:41. | |
It happened at Pinewood Studios during filming of Star Wars 7. | :04:42. | :04:44. | |
Some reports say that Harrison Ford was hit by the door of a sp`ceship ` | :04:45. | :04:47. | |
possibly the latest version of this one, the famous Millennium Falcon | :04:48. | :04:55. | |
that appeared in the origin`l movie. Judging by this tease of a tweet | :04:56. | :04:59. | |
from the new film's director, J. J. Abrams, | :05:00. | :05:01. | |
It is just one of the craft that Ford fondly remembers. | :05:02. | :05:07. | |
And that ship that comes ovdr at the beginning of the movhe, | :05:08. | :05:12. | |
where this gigantic spaceshhp comes right over your heads. | :05:13. | :05:17. | |
The 71`year`old actor was ahrlifted to hospital in Oxford, | :05:18. | :05:23. | |
For Star Wars fans, news of the break became breaking news. | :05:24. | :05:29. | |
Especially for those like this one, whose name really is. | :05:30. | :05:35. | |
I just hope that Harrison h`s a speedy recovery and I hopd that | :05:36. | :05:38. | |
From Han Solo to Indiana Jones, Harrison Ford has owned glalorous | :05:39. | :05:45. | |
But what now for his latest film and its injured star? | :05:46. | :05:51. | |
You cannot have Harrison Ford as Han Solo limping around on ` broken | :05:52. | :05:54. | |
ankle ` that will not be consistent with the world that we are hn. | :05:55. | :05:58. | |
But do not forget that this is the latest set of films and we do | :05:59. | :06:03. | |
not know yet how big a char`cter he is going to be in them. | :06:04. | :06:06. | |
A health and safety enquiry has begun into how this Hollywood | :06:07. | :06:09. | |
Work on the film is continuhng, but for Harrison Ford action has | :06:10. | :06:13. | |
become cut, as he temporarily goes from hero into healing. | :06:14. | :06:18. | |
All of which leaves people waiting for two kinds of releases: | :06:19. | :06:21. | |
That of Harrison Ford from the John Radcliffe here and the movie | :06:22. | :06:24. | |
itself ` which Disney say is still scheduled to come out next xear | :06:25. | :06:29. | |

We do have one or two showers at large through the course | :06:48. | :06:50. | |
of this evening and tonight, and they could turn out to be | :06:51. | :06:53. | |
You can see the yellows and greens on the map. | :06:54. | :06:59. | |

Most of those showers will dase away by first thing tomorrow morning | :07:02. | :07:08. | |
Quite a lot of cloud around tomorrow, but still some | :07:09. | :07:10. | |
bright breaks ` particularlx in the afternoon, where we lay see | :07:11. | :07:13. | |
One or two showers, yes, but generally a dry picture. | :07:14. | :07:19. | |
Sunday looks like a cloudy day with brighter intervals here and there. | :07:20. | :07:25. | |

temperatures in the 20s. Now the West -- now the National forecast. | :07:32. | :07:40. | |
Good evening. Over the last two days in the south of England there has | :07:41. | :07:44. | |
been a lot of sunshine and temperatures up to 26 degrees. Don't | :07:45. | :07:48. | |
expect temperatures that high this weekend, cooler for many. A lot of | :07:49. | :07:52. | |
dry weather even if it is a little bit on the cloudy side at times We | :07:53. | :07:57. | |
see the cloud increasing this afternoon and through the evening. | :07:58. | :08:01. | |
The cloud has been drifting south. Over the last few hours we started | :08:02. | :08:06. | |
to see thunderstorms. Over the next few hours, further thunderstorms to | :08:07. | :08:09. | |
be found across parts of northern England, the Midlands, the eastern | :08:10. | :08:13. | |
side of Wales. They are drifting south overnight. Every bursts of | :08:14. | :08:18. | |
rain with that. Most will clear into the English Channel. A lot of cloud | :08:19. | :08:21. | |
out there, temperatures 14 or 1 degrees. Around the North Sea | :08:22. | :08:26. | |
coastal areas, temperatures not rising far because there is a cool | :08:27. | :08:30. | |
breeze from the North. Inland, the cloud -- the cloud breaks up in the | :08:31. | :08:35. | |
afternoon. Sunny spells developing. One or two showers. On the western | :08:36. | :08:41. | |
side of Scotland, doing well in the afternoon, warmer than it has | :08:42. | :08:42. |
