:03:12. > :03:15.consultations but we can already do repeat prescriptions online and when
:03:16. > :03:18.the computer is behaving itself you can make an appointment, too. But
:03:19. > :03:19.it's not always possible. The challenge will be
:03:20. > :03:21.whether changes to GP services can be made without compromising

:03:29. > :03:31.can no longer hide on the internet after Thames Valley
:03:32. > :03:34.police arrested more than 30 people as part of a national operation

:03:54. > :03:55.Joe Campbell. Joe, what do we know
:03:56. > :03:57.about this operation? 34 people have been arrested
:03:58. > :03:59.across the Thames Valley and six more men have been picked up
:04:00. > :04:02.by the Wiltshire force. They range in age from 24 to 60

:04:09. > :04:11.the arrests began in April of this year based on intelligence gathered
:04:12. > :04:13.by the National Crime Agencx, but They won't comment on the mdthods
:04:14. > :04:18.they used to locate suspects, but we know police from Britain have met
:04:19. > :04:21.law enforcement agencies from the US where they have used sophisticated
:04:22. > :04:25.software to track those accdssing online sites which feature hmages
:04:26. > :04:43.of abuse. What do we know We need new approaches and we need
:04:44. > :04:47.to work with the industry and the third sector on a whole range of
:04:48. > :04:53.ways in which we can limit the damage and the opportunity that this
:04:54. > :04:54.criminality causes. What more do we know about the children who were
:04:55. > :04:56.abused to make these images? This is an international tr`de with

:06:14. > :06:25.three of the cooling towers in Didcot are demolished, BBC South has
:06:26. > :06:28.been given rare access to the site. N`Power will blow them up
:06:29. > :06:30.in eleven days time. The event itself will last only a
:06:31. > :06:33.few seconds, but those few seconds I went along to
:06:34. > :06:39.the power station to find ott more. They've been a landmark herd
:06:40. > :06:42.for more than 40 years. The colossal cooling towers
:06:43. > :06:46.at Didcot A power station used to produce coal`fired energy
:06:47. > :06:50.and generated electricity But these towers will no longer
:06:51. > :06:56.dominate the south Oxfordshhre They'll be blown up
:06:57. > :07:01.and gone forever. It will probably all be over
:07:02. > :07:05.in a matter of up to ten seconds. By the time the first chargds go off
:07:06. > :07:08.over a period of ten seconds, the Npower closed this part of the power
:07:09. > :07:16.station last year ` next Sunday will mark the last, and, arguablx
:07:17. > :07:19.the most significant moment, The towers have been charged
:07:20. > :07:25.and engineers are now in the final stages of work ready
:07:26. > :07:29.for next week's big demolithon. 7.5,000 holes have been drilled here
:07:30. > :07:36.on site and filled with explosives. But they won't be made live
:07:37. > :07:41.until early next Sunday morning Planning
:07:42. > :07:43.the demolition has taken six months, involved 200 staff and cost
:07:44. > :07:47.hundreds of thousands of potnds The towers are scheduled to explode
:07:48. > :07:52.between 3 and 5am ` but loc`l It's thought many people in the area
:07:53. > :08:00.will be disappointed to miss out Some have signed a petition ` which
:08:01. > :08:08.has got nearly 3,000 signattres I totally understand it, though what
:08:09. > :08:12.we do have to realise is th`t it is a place of work and we are carrying
:08:13. > :08:16.out a high`risk operation hdre. This was how it looked in Sheffield,
:08:17. > :08:19.when two iconic cooling towdrs near Despite the early timeslot,
:08:20. > :08:26.thousands of people are expected to g`ther
:08:27. > :08:37.in Didcot to say a final goodbye. The new BMW Mini, made in Oxford,
:08:38. > :08:41.has won a prestigious industry award,
:08:42. > :08:44.being named Car of the Year 201 . The award ` from Auto Express `
:08:45. > :08:48.follows a ?750 million investment in BMW sites `
:08:49. > :08:51.including the main plant in Cowley. 600 new hatchback minis are now
:08:52. > :08:54.manufactured here each day tsing a thousand robots.
:08:55. > :08:58.Most importantly, Oxford is the heart and home of the Mhni and
:08:59. > :09:02.it looks like it is going rdmain so, long into the future, as long as
:09:03. > :09:09.we carry on doing what we are doing at the moment ` like winning awards
:09:10. > :09:13.for absolutely superb new c`rs. So we're not in fear of our
:09:14. > :09:16.longevity on site in Oxford, rather, we are excited by the possibility of
:09:17. > :09:23.building for another 100 ye`rs of car manufacturing in the local area.
:09:24. > :09:25.That's the it from me for the moment.
:09:26. > :09:28.I'll have the headlines at 8pm and a full bulletin at 10.24pm.

:09:57. > :10:04.has been a transfer the whole town to come together. `` Reading
:10:05. > :10:09.Carnival. It was cancelled last year. Now a community group has said
:10:10. > :10:15.it wants to take control from the current organisers or set up a rival
:10:16. > :10:21.Carnival. When it was in full swing, thousands
:10:22. > :10:28.came to Reading Carnival. Btt the colour has faded. When I first
:10:29. > :10:34.came, the park was full with floats and sound systems and performances.
:10:35. > :10:41.In 2013, the streets were shlent. It was cancelled due to a lack of
:10:42. > :10:47.resources. We just wants to involve the community again. We want to
:10:48. > :10:52.involve the younger generathon. Involve the whole community. The
:10:53. > :10:56.current committee has cancelled a meeting about next year's event but
:10:57. > :11:03.the chairman said people who want to help should join them. We wdlcome as
:11:04. > :11:17.many people to come on board. We are talking about manpower. This is the
:11:18. > :11:20.Black history war in Reading. It was painted to show the strength and
:11:21. > :11:27.diversity of the communities here. But there are worries that the Afro
:11:28. > :11:32.Caribbean community's presence is changing and that this row over the
:11:33. > :11:36.Carnival could prove divisive. Instead of uniting and creating
:11:37. > :11:40.strength to go forward and lake this a positive event, it is cre`ting
:11:41. > :11:47.more of a war and a disparity and that cannot be good. Both groups
:11:48. > :11:57.promised there will be a carnival of some sort next year.

:12:17. > :12:25.Glorious evening here. We h`ve had people jumping off the jettx,

:12:31. > :12:36.he hit the water, he realisdd his leg had slipped off and he was in
:12:37. > :12:43.difficulty. I could see Jill, my partner, looking at me. I thought
:12:44. > :12:52.they were going to watch me drown. As I looked up, I saw a chap and he
:12:53. > :12:57.launched himself in with all his clothes on. He managed to gdt hold
:12:58. > :13:03.of me and help me get to thd ladder on the end of the pier. It was OK to
:13:04. > :13:10.get the ladder, but I could not get up as I only had one leg. It wasn't
:13:11. > :13:14.a good idea, it seemed like fun at the time. The sun was shining, I
:13:15. > :13:22.think you get a bit carried away. I suppose I felt like being a kid
:13:23. > :13:32.again. Rory is using his sp`re leg now, but it is broken, does not fit
:13:33. > :13:38.and he is in constant pain. It is the anniversary of my amput`tion,
:13:39. > :13:46.for the first time in five xears I feel like I have a disability. I
:13:47. > :13:51.don't feel so independent now. Just not doing everything I used to be
:13:52. > :14:02.able to do and not knowing that I am safer my feet. `` safe. There is a
:14:03. > :14:07.real sense of public spirit here. A local Aqua club has spent hours

:14:39. > :14:52.she joined me on the sofa to tell me It is using glass in differdnt ways,
:14:53. > :14:56.making political statements and at the same time commemorating the
:14:57. > :15:05.lives lost. Tell us about the panel we have. It is a bit of glass of two
:15:06. > :15:10.sides and two stories, isn't it It is looking at both sides. On one
:15:11. > :15:13.side, it is highly polished and reflective and speaks of
:15:14. > :15:24.commemoration of the troops and their families and friends. On the
:15:25. > :15:38.other side, it is broken, Edinburgh, `` it represents Iraq. And this
:15:39. > :15:43.stems from the loss of your brother when you are just 12 years old. Talk
:15:44. > :15:49.us through the process of the loss and creating the art. Startdd in
:15:50. > :15:57.year two when we had to do ` project based on going to the British Museum
:15:58. > :16:02.and recreating an object. I chose a vessel that had some nice on the
:16:03. > :16:09.surface. I think I've brought up a lot of repressed emotions that I
:16:10. > :16:15.have not acknowledged. `` h`d not. I decided to develop that and go on.
:16:16. > :16:23.You can see the stages of grief as I have gone through. Getting puite
:16:24. > :16:30.angry and wondering why. I think I needed to let all of that goal. So I
:16:31. > :16:36.could create this project to commemorate everyone. Hasn't been a
:16:37. > :16:45.kind of therapy? yes, dealing with it in a creative way, rather than in
:16:46. > :16:49.a self`destructive way. It has been amazing. And now to be able to talk
:16:50. > :16:54.about it without being upset is quite an achievement. What lessage
:16:55. > :17:01.do you want people to walk `way with when they see this? It is e`sy to
:17:02. > :17:05.get lost in our own grief, but I want people to understand that it
:17:06. > :17:09.will be exactly the same in Iraq. They do not have time and pdace to
:17:10. > :17:17.reflect on what is happening, there is constant warfare. It is still
:17:18. > :17:21.continuing today. I mean, what was the point? Hundreds of thousands of
:17:22. > :17:27.lives have been lost and it is still going on. It is terrible. And you
:17:28. > :17:33.want to go on to create othdr memorials? Where'd you want to go? I
:17:34. > :17:38.would love to take on commissions for people. I would love to work on
