the police warning to festival goers Four people have been arrested | :00:47. | :00:52. | |
after letter`bombs were sent to army careers offices in Oxford | :00:53. | :01:08. | |
and across the country. Bomb disposal experts were called to | :01:09. | :01:10. | |

questioned in Northern Irel`nd. Jeremy, what more do we know | :01:15. | :01:21. | |
about those four people? Police in Northern Ireland have | :01:22. | :01:27. | |
confirmed that two men, aged 35 and 46, and two womdn, | :01:28. | :01:30. | |
aged 21 and 44, were arrestdd They're names haven't been released | :01:31. | :01:37. | |
or any other details about them We do know they're being qudstioned | :01:38. | :01:42. | |
at the serious crime unit in Antrim. Irish detectives are working with | :01:43. | :01:47. | |
officers from the They're investigating | :01:48. | :01:50. | |
whether the four suspects m`y be When the Armed Forces careers office | :01:51. | :01:56. | |
in Oxford was targeted in Fdbruary this year, houses were evactated, | :01:57. | :02:03. | |
shops closed and streets cldared. St Giles was cordoned off c`using | :02:04. | :02:07. | |
several hours of disruption. Letter bombs were to sent to | :02:08. | :02:11. | |
a number of other addresses across the United Kingdom, hncluding | :02:12. | :02:14. | |
an armed forces centre in Rdading. All the devices were defused | :02:15. | :02:18. | |
by bomb disposal experts. At the time a government spokesman | :02:19. | :02:22. | |
said "Suspect packages have been identified as containing sm`ll, | :02:23. | :02:27. | |
crude, but potentially viable devices bearing the hallmarks of | :02:28. | :02:31. | |
Northern Ireland`related terrorism. We don't know how long this | :02:32. | :02:37. | |
investigation will take or if the four people arrested today | :02:38. | :02:41. | |
will be charged. But for suspected terrorism cases | :02:42. | :02:43. | |
the police can hold suspects for longer than in other cases, | :02:44. | :02:47. | |
possibly up to two weeks. If they are charged | :02:48. | :02:51. | |
a court appearance will be set, it's likely the case would be heard | :02:52. | :02:54. | |
in Northern Ireland. A mother's spoken of her anger after | :02:55. | :03:00. | |

guilty but unapologetic. I haven?t breach a family?s licence, | :03:17. | :03:24. | |
I?ve breached my licence. There?s nothing to say to | :03:25. | :03:27. | |
the family, is there? In 2010, the 30 year old from Marsh | :03:28. | :03:33. | |
near Aylesbury, was sentencdd to five years for causing the death | :03:34. | :03:37. | |
of 18 year old Greg Stiles. But by law he was only requhred to | :03:38. | :03:42. | |
serve half that term The former racing driver trhed to | :03:43. | :03:45. | |
overtake a car on this road between Princes Risborough and Thamd, | :03:46. | :03:52. | |
putting himself directly in the Greg lost control, | :03:53. | :03:54. | |
hitting another car. He died instantly and his ghrlfriend | :03:55. | :04:00. | |
and passenger, Abigail Dowdx, Sam Edwards was also banned | :04:01. | :04:04. | |
from driving for eight years. Despite that he was caught | :04:05. | :04:10. | |
behind the wheel on the A41 Something which came as no | :04:11. | :04:14. | |
surprise to Greg Stiles? falily He?s proved that he can?t lhve | :04:15. | :04:20. | |
by the terms of his licence. If that?s the case, why did they not | :04:21. | :04:24. | |
insist on a recall to prison today? She also believes people should | :04:25. | :04:28. | |
have to serve their full sentence. The whole two | :04:29. | :04:33. | |
and a half years out of fivd, on licence for two and a half xears, | :04:34. | :04:36. | |
actually is meaningless, totally and utterly meaningless, if you end up | :04:37. | :04:40. | |
with a result like we?ve got today. Sam Edwards was ordered to do 1 0 | :04:41. | :04:44. | |
hours of community service He'll remain on licence | :04:45. | :04:50. | |
until next year. A coroner has ruled that | :04:51. | :05:00. | |
the death of a robber who w`s held down by several people in Oxford | :05:01. | :05:03. | |
was misadventure. Clint Townsend was attempting to | :05:04. | :05:05. | |

if residents don't recycle lore The City Council is threatening to | :05:29. | :05:32. | |
leave bins of waste behind if people throw away substantially | :05:33. | :05:35. | |
more than they recycle. The council wants half | :05:36. | :05:38. | |
the city's domestic waste to be recycled as our Political Rdporter | :05:39. | :05:41. | |
Helen Catt explains. Its plan is simple ` for evdry bin | :05:42. | :05:55. | |
of recycling a block creates it Anything extra will have to be | :05:56. | :06:02. | |
taken to the tip by private firms. For this block in North Oxford, | :06:03. | :06:10. | |
it?s estimated that would cost This will not affect landlords, | :06:11. | :06:13. | |
but tenants, and ultimately private Effectively, everyone | :06:14. | :06:20. | |
in the block will have to p`y for The council says it has givdn block | :06:21. | :06:30. | |
owners more than a year to hmprove rates and it?s helped to edtcate | :06:31. | :06:36. | |
tenants although with a quarter of the city's population moving | :06:37. | :06:39. | |
ever year, that's an ongoing job. We don?t want to see anybodx | :06:40. | :06:43. | |
bringing in private collectors of rubbish ? | :06:44. | :06:46. | |
the council does that very well Yes, | :06:47. | :06:49. | |
we do all pay for it ? if wd don?t recycle it, we pay more in landfill | :06:50. | :06:55. | |
charges, it goes onto the council tax, so it?s cheaper and better | :06:56. | :07:01. | |
for the environment to recycle. And it?s not just Oxford trxing to | :07:02. | :07:09. | |
get us to recycle as much as we throw away ? the EU h`s set | :07:10. | :07:12. | |
a target for half of all waste to There's been a sharp rise | :07:13. | :07:16. | |
in the number of prostitutes known They helped cause traffic collisions | :07:17. | :07:42. | |

a five percent drop in anti`social behaviour | :07:52. | :07:53. | |

and nowhere are they more kdenly anticipated than on the Isld | :10:08. | :10:09. | |
of Wight. Last summer the support for schools | :10:10. | :10:13. | |
was considered to be so poor that the government told Hampshire County | :10:14. | :10:16. | |
Council to step in and take over The number of students gainhng five | :10:17. | :10:26. | |
good GCSEs, including English That compared to | :10:27. | :10:34. | |
a national average of 59.2%. It put the Island fourth from bottom | :10:35. | :10:37. | |
in the national league tabld. Ofsted says improvements have now | :10:38. | :10:40. | |
been made but in the first of two special reports, | :10:41. | :10:43. | |
Briony Leyland looks back at why The gulf between education standards | :10:44. | :10:45. | |
on the Isle of Wight compardd to the In 2008 the council came up with | :10:46. | :10:53. | |
the controversial solution to move from three tiers of schooling ` | :10:54. | :10:58. | |
primary, middle and high ` to two, Opponents argued existing schools | :10:59. | :11:03. | |
should be improved instead. I think it has damaged a nulber | :11:04. | :11:11. | |
of generations very badly. If I was a parent of | :11:12. | :11:15. | |
a child who had failed to gdt good GCSEs when I thought they should | :11:16. | :11:20. | |
have got GCSEs, and I know lots of parents who think that, I would be | :11:21. | :11:25. | |
very upset about the whole thing. The former council leader D`vid Pugh | :11:26. | :11:31. | |
stands by the move to a two tier sxstem, | :11:32. | :11:34. | |
arguing it ended years of stagnation Whatever the merits of reorganising | :11:35. | :11:37. | |
schools, when the council's education services were inspected | :11:38. | :11:41. | |
last summer more change restlted. Last June, with four of the island's | :11:42. | :11:45. | |
six secondary schools deemed to be inadequate or failing and whth the | :11:46. | :11:50. | |
council support for improving the schools condemned as ineffective by | :11:51. | :11:53. | |
Ofsted, the Department for Dducation They called for reinforcements | :11:54. | :11:58. | |
from the mainland, asking Hampshire County Council to | :11:59. | :12:06. | |
take over education services A report by Hampshire Countx Council | :12:07. | :12:08. | |
concluded a combination of factors had led to poor standards, hncluding | :12:09. | :12:15. | |
issues around as aspirations and had led to poor standards, hncluding | :12:16. | :12:22. | |
issues around aspirations and expectations, problems with school | :12:23. | :12:24. | |
leadership, and an unusuallx static teaching force with a lack | :12:25. | :12:27. | |
of professional development. A plan for improvement was set in | :12:28. | :12:31. | |
motion and progress has been made. Aspiration is at the heart | :12:32. | :12:34. | |
of the island's first free school. Directly funded by government, | :12:35. | :12:37. | |
it is the vision of parents The parents wanted a smaller, | :12:38. | :12:39. | |
simpler school, We are naturally looking out | :12:40. | :12:44. | |
for them and trying to carvd a way and an education and | :12:45. | :12:53. | |
a system for them that gives them The future of our children hs | :12:54. | :12:56. | |
in our own hands. I think things will need to change | :12:57. | :13:02. | |
and improve and we need to get The headmaster hopes the frde school | :13:03. | :13:05. | |
will help to tackle some of the underlying problems behind | :13:06. | :13:12. | |
low achievement on the island. Down here in the South of the Isle | :13:13. | :13:15. | |
of Wight there is quite a lot There are a lot | :13:16. | :13:20. | |
of free school meals students, I think South Wight is about 30 , | :13:21. | :13:31. | |
much higher than the island average, A lack of aspiration can happen | :13:32. | :13:35. | |
in an island in a community setting I think it is easier to havd | :13:36. | :13:39. | |
a lack of aspiration than pdrhaps in other areas, | :13:40. | :13:44. | |
and it is about challenging that. The school believes even pupils who | :13:45. | :13:46. | |
cannot get places here will benefit. In a competitive market, if someone | :13:47. | :13:49. | |
sets a standard, everyone else has Something we talked a lot to | :13:50. | :13:52. | |
the Department for Education about is we will set up an | :13:53. | :13:56. | |
outstanding and very strong school. Competitors then have to rahse their | :13:57. | :13:59. | |
game and it can impact all schools. On tomorrow's programme we will be | :14:00. | :14:03. | |
looking at what has already been done to make improvements | :14:04. | :14:06. | |
and finding out those all`ilportant Police say they will be checking | :14:07. | :14:09. | |
so`called "legal highs" seized from Festival`goers in Readhng this | :14:10. | :14:20. | |
weekend for signs of illegal drugs. The substances, | :14:21. | :14:24. | |
which include chemicals intdnded as plant food and laughing gas, are | :14:25. | :14:26. | |
banned from the event. Anyone arrested carrying thdm could | :14:27. | :14:31. | |
face problems with the authorities who for the first | :14:32. | :14:35. | |
time are using sophisticated equipment to check they've not been | :14:36. | :14:38. | |
mixed with outlawed drugs. Festivalgoers have been arrhving in | :14:39. | :14:53. | |
Reading all day. Police say youngsters, some on their fhrst trip | :14:54. | :14:58. | |
away from home, prevent that Micah present rich pickings for crooks. | :14:59. | :15:02. | |
But it is legal substances they may have brought with them officers will | :15:03. | :15:06. | |
be watching out for as they mingle with the crowds. Everyday chemicals | :15:07. | :15:11. | |
that can be used to try and get high. | :15:12. | :15:13. | |
It is a condition of entry that you cannot bring any legal highs with | :15:14. | :15:17. | |
you. It has been an issue bdfore. Security will be taking thel off | :15:18. | :15:20. | |
people and asking them to strrender it. We also have some testing kit | :15:21. | :15:25. | |
this year and we have to do some checking. The government tells us | :15:26. | :15:31. | |
20% of legal highs may cont`in illegal substances. | :15:32. | :15:34. | |
The event is a sell`out but a slip up getting old tickets in the post | :15:35. | :15:37. | |
meant some had to collect them from the town's Theatre. The ticket | :15:38. | :15:43. | |
agency says almost `` only ` small group were affected but among | :15:44. | :15:47. | |
parents who had to take timd off work and travel from far afheld that | :15:48. | :15:50. | |
did not go down well. It is inconvenient for us to come | :15:51. | :15:54. | |
all the way to Reading. On the way back it will be rush`hour, who knows | :15:55. | :15:59. | |
what will happen. There is the time and cost involved and I think they | :16:00. | :16:06. | |
should reimburse me. No problem with tickets herd as more | :16:07. | :16:10. | |
and more people arrived in Reading bone for the festival site. | :16:11. | :16:14. | |
At least the crowds here on the move. After a freight train broke | :16:15. | :16:18. | |
down in the station this morning, passengers were delayed at `rriving | :16:19. | :16:23. | |
here in Reading for up to two hours. Not what people want on thehr way to | :16:24. | :16:24. | |
the festival. A special World War One BBC roadshow | :16:25. | :16:32. | |
arrived in Weymouth Pavilion today. There were hands`on activithes, | :16:33. | :16:34. | |
performances and interactivd sessions to show what living in | :16:35. | :16:37. | |
wartime was like for the soldiers who went off to fight but also for | :16:38. | :16:41. | |
the families who were left behind. Frankie Peck has more. | :16:42. | :16:47. | |

I'm going to have words with your mother, you know! | :16:53. | :16:56. | |
Away from the schoolmaster, staff from the Imperial War Museums | :16:57. | :16:58. | |
were teaching a more up`to`date lesson, how people could discover | :16:59. | :17:01. | |
what part their relatives h`d to play in the Great War. | :17:02. | :17:06. | |
Dorset Regiment, the Royal Navy we are finding people who | :17:07. | :17:11. | |
discovered that their grandfathers had brothers who also served. | :17:12. | :17:14. | |
They are finding lots of details that perhaps thex knew | :17:15. | :17:20. | |
All of the information on people's relatives will be kept | :17:21. | :17:24. | |
These girls found out more about their great grandad. | :17:25. | :17:28. | |
There were more colourful activities on offer, and Morse code pr`ctice | :17:29. | :17:32. | |
for those all`important messages needing to get past enemy lhnes | :17:33. | :17:36. | |
Because it was a fast`moving war, radio contact was essential | :17:37. | :17:41. | |
and Morse is the most effichent way of sending radiocommunication. | :17:42. | :17:47. | |
It was a good day for gener`tions to come together to remember. | :17:48. | :17:59. | |
I think she was enjoying herself there! Let's move on to sport, Chris | :18:00. | :18:05. | |

It was a busy night last night, we have a tweet from a man who often | :18:11. | :18:14. | |
sits there in his shorts. What a treat! If you are eating your | :18:15. | :18:19. | |
dinner now, look away now. Last night, round three of football | :18:20. | :18:24. | |

scored their first Championship goals of the season at Leeds. Shall | :18:35. | :18:39. | |

Bournemouth surrendered thehr 1 0% start to the season despite | :18:53. | :18:57. | |
dominating against expending Nottingham Forest. After Matt | :18:58. | :19:01. | |
Ritchie's free kick struck ` post, Callum Wilson gave the cherries the | :19:02. | :19:09. | |
lead just short of the hour. Nottingham Forest's striker somehow | :19:10. | :19:12. | |
find the net with this headdr and minutes later Matt Prior outjumped | :19:13. | :19:17. | |
Adam Smith to consign Bourndmouth to defeat. It was a bad night for | :19:18. | :19:24. | |
Reading who were also on thd end of a 2`1 defeat to Huddersfield. Harry | :19:25. | :19:31. | |
Bunn doubled their lead before half`time. The Royals pulled a goal | :19:32. | :19:38. | |
back through Simon Cox but ht was too little too late for Nigdl | :19:39. | :19:44. | |

Francis Benali made his namd in the Southampton defence of the 0990s. | :21:25. | :21:29. | |
Now he's ready to push his body to the limit to rahse funds | :21:30. | :21:32. | |
Starting at St James' Park in Newcastle, he plans to rtn to | :21:33. | :21:38. | |
every single Premier League ground in the country, from the north to | :21:39. | :21:41. | |
And he plans to finish in Southampton during half time | :21:42. | :21:48. | |

Here comes the short! Yes, anyone of a nervous | :21:58. | :22:01. | |
disposition, look away now! A gentle jog for Franny Ben`li, | :22:02. | :22:04. | |
and that is about all he is doing this week ahead of the toughest | :22:05. | :22:08. | |
sporting test of his life. Benali's Big Run starts on Sunday | :22:09. | :22:11. | |
with Alan Shearer waving hil This is certainly no ordinary | :22:12. | :22:13. | |
challenge Franny is taking on. Over 21 consecutive days he will run | :22:14. | :22:16. | |
an average of 40 miles per shift. He will take in every Premidr League | :22:17. | :22:20. | |
ground. It's one heck of a challengd, | :22:21. | :22:22. | |
my friend. I saw it as an opportunity to raise | :22:23. | :22:25. | |
a huge amount of money for ` The second point, | :22:26. | :22:29. | |
it is a huge tick in a box for me personally to undertake a physical | :22:30. | :22:35. | |
and mental challenge that whll test me all the way and probably | :22:36. | :22:37. | |
beyond my limits in many waxs. Benali made more than 300 | :22:38. | :22:41. | |
appearances for Southampton and was a mainstay of their | :22:42. | :22:43. | |
Premier League side in the 80s. He has always been fit, | :22:44. | :22:47. | |
but this will be very different I know what I put into playhng | :22:48. | :22:50. | |
at the level I did in the sport of football, but this will be | :22:51. | :22:54. | |
something altogether differdnt. Although I have a support tdam, it's | :22:55. | :22:58. | |
going to be very much, you know fighting with my own thoughts and | :22:59. | :23:03. | |
getting my head around a lot of the The 45`year`old cannot wait | :23:04. | :23:07. | |
for the start, but the finish will be pretty special, too ` half`time | :23:08. | :23:15. | |
in the Southampton versus Ndwcastle I've used that as a little bit | :23:16. | :23:17. | |
of a thought and a picture We did a practice run | :23:18. | :23:23. | |
on what will be the last leg back to St Mary's a few weeks back `nd I was | :23:24. | :23:29. | |
quite emotional when I got back to the stadium even on that dax, so | :23:30. | :23:33. | |
goodness knows what I will be like after a three`week challengd, | :23:34. | :23:37. | |
and arriving back You can see the website on the | :23:38. | :23:50. | |
screen, all of the details `re there with the full route. | :23:51. | :23:55. | |
1000 miles in three weeks? That is a huge challenge! | :23:56. | :23:58. | |
Good luck. I got tired of jtst looking at the map! | :23:59. | :24:02. | |

It will be fantastic if he lakes it for St Mirren these and the game | :24:11. | :24:15. | |
with Newcastle next month. Did you see that running stxle? | :24:16. | :24:20. | |

No, I am busy! Sports presenters joining Frannie on | :24:26. | :24:29. | |

increasing cloud, but there will be some sunshine and temperatures will | :25:45. | :25:50. | |
be very similar to today, around 16 or 18 Celsius with light winds. | :25:51. | :25:55. | |
Tomorrow night we could havd outbreaks of rain showers at times | :25:56. | :25:57. | |
through the early hours of Friday morning. The showers are mahnly | :25:58. | :26:02. | |
liked and patchy with the odd heavy burst drifting in from the West and | :26:03. | :26:06. | |
clearing most places by Don on Friday with a milder night to come | :26:07. | :26:09. | |

Unsettled with rain at times on Monday. All in all, the bank holiday | :26:48. | :26:51. | |
not looking bad at all. But the rest of the week there will be some sunny | :26:52. | :26:56. | |
spells, the odd shower may be for western areas, increasing cloud for | :26:57. | :26:58. | |
much of the reason through the afternoon. The order showers are | :26:59. | :27:05. | |
possible on Friday amongst the sunny spells and a breezy day. Cold | :27:06. | :27:09. | |
overnight Friday into Saturday may be forced to start the day on Sunday | :27:10. | :27:13. | |
but Saturday will be the best day of the weekend in terms of dryness and | :27:14. | :27:15. | |
sunshine. Good, because it is the Augtst bank | :27:16. | :27:19. | |
