:00:13. > :00:17.Welcome to Point West. They left him with broken bones and then

:00:17. > :00:23.tried to cover it up. Two senior care workers are found guilty of

:00:23. > :00:26.neglect after a pensioner falls out of bed and is left to suffer.

:00:26. > :00:28.Also tonight: Decision time for Bristol City stadium plans. We are

:00:28. > :00:32.live at the council house for the latest.

:00:32. > :00:42.Join the crowds - the museum that has had more visitors in a month

:00:42. > :00:47.

:00:47. > :00:52.than they once had in a year. And the row over cartoons drawn for

:00:52. > :00:57.Macca's band Wings. Why he is demanding they are taken out of a

:00:57. > :01:01.sale in Gloucestershire. Good evening. Two senior members of

:01:01. > :01:06.staff at a care home in North Somerset have been found guilty

:01:06. > :01:10.tonight of conspiring to neglect a man in their care. 75-year-old

:01:10. > :01:15.Colin Lewis from Weston-super-Mare fell out of bed while having his

:01:15. > :01:19.sheets changed. He broke his hip and his foot. But a senior nurse

:01:19. > :01:24.and senior care assistant pretended it had not happened. Mr Lewis died

:01:24. > :01:28.12 days later. His wife has spoken exclusively to our health

:01:28. > :01:33.correspondent, Matthew Hill. The last fortnight of this trial had

:01:33. > :01:38.been the longest two weeks after Margaret Lewis's life. Her husband

:01:38. > :01:42.Colin, who was a photographer, suffered a stroke and was receiving

:01:42. > :01:46.24-hour care at a nursing home in Weston. These were some of the

:01:46. > :01:55.injuries he suffered when he fell out of his bed while his sheets

:01:55. > :02:01.were being changed. Two women were today found to have conspired to

:02:01. > :02:05.have covered up his injuries. It was eight days before Mr Lewis

:02:05. > :02:09.received hospital care. He died of pneumonia within two weeks.

:02:09. > :02:14.wouldn't do it to a animal. All they had to do when he was dropped

:02:14. > :02:16.out of bed was to call an ambulance or call a doctor. He would have had

:02:16. > :02:21.immediate treatment. They carried on changing him and dressing him

:02:21. > :02:26.and washing him, all with a broken hip and the doctor said he must

:02:26. > :02:30.have been in intense pain. He never spoke again? The only time he spoke

:02:30. > :02:38.was two hours before he died. I was telling him I loved him because I

:02:38. > :02:43.knew he was going to die and he said, "I love you." That was it. He

:02:43. > :02:48.then went into a coma and died. During the case, another care

:02:48. > :02:52.worker said she only failed to report the accident after the nurse

:02:52. > :02:56.told her she would be sacked if she did. This serious charge was

:02:56. > :03:01.brought against his carers under new mental health legislation

:03:01. > :03:05.because he lacked capacity. The judge concluded that people who

:03:05. > :03:09.place members of their family who are vulnerable in the care of

:03:09. > :03:14.others must do so in the knowledge that basic care will be provided.

:03:14. > :03:19.He said that while this matter was extremely serious, he was minded to

:03:19. > :03:24.give a community order of unpaid work because of the previous good

:03:24. > :03:28.character of the defendants. Brilliant. I am overwhelmed. It

:03:28. > :03:38.wasn't what I expected. I am so pleased. Mrs Lewis says she hopes

:03:38. > :03:39.

:03:39. > :03:42.the nurse will now be struck off. In the last hour, Bristol

:03:42. > :03:45.councillors have taken an historic vote which could see a new stadium

:03:45. > :03:50.built for Bristol City at Ashton Vale. There have been numerous

:03:50. > :03:54.issues and discussions along the way so is this really it? David

:03:54. > :03:57.Passmore is at the council house for us now. Good evening. Good

:03:57. > :04:01.evening. This is a highly significant and a major step

:04:01. > :04:05.forward, whether it is the final step, we will have to wait and see.

:04:05. > :04:09.What councillors decided in there tonight was that a stadium could be

:04:09. > :04:14.built on part of the site while part of the rest of the site should

:04:14. > :04:20.be a town green where development can't take place. Let's put all

:04:20. > :04:24.this into context. The club first proposed building a new stadium in

:04:24. > :04:28.November 2007. Two years later, they got planning permission for

:04:28. > :04:32.that 30,000-seater stadium and then in March this year, Sainsbury's got

:04:32. > :04:36.permission to build a new superstore on the current ground,

:04:36. > :04:40.Ashton Gate, thus unlocking funds for the whole project. Tonight, it

:04:40. > :04:45.came down to an application to have the entire site made a town green.

:04:45. > :04:50.This is how it looks, the current ground is Ashton Gate. The new site

:04:50. > :04:53.is about a mile away. Those opposed to the stadium said the entire 42

:04:53. > :04:57.acre site should be a town green but councillors said tonight that

:04:57. > :05:02.half the site can be used for the stadium and the other half, the

:05:02. > :05:06.southern half, be split between a wetlands nature reserve and a town

:05:06. > :05:10.green. Feelings in and after the meeting were running pretty high.

:05:10. > :05:15.Those opposed to the scheme saying it was a travesty, but the club was

:05:15. > :05:19.delighted that their dream of a new stadium is a step closer. I am very

:05:19. > :05:22.pleased that we have got to where we have got to. It is an

:05:22. > :05:27.encouraging decision that has been taken. We need to wait and see

:05:27. > :05:32.where it takes us and what happens next. It is an encouraging decision

:05:32. > :05:37.and another big hurdle out of the way. A travesty of justice. What is

:05:37. > :05:43.the point of going to an independent inspector having a 15-

:05:43. > :05:47.day inquiry, having every witness called tested to the limit and then

:05:47. > :05:52.when you get the result that you don't like, you then throw the ball

:05:52. > :05:56.away? So is this the end of the matter? Well, probably not. The

:05:56. > :05:59.town green applicants say they will now consider their position but

:05:59. > :06:02.everyone here opposed to the scheme was determined that this shouldn't

:06:02. > :06:07.be the end of the matter and that they will go to judicial review

:06:07. > :06:10.which means the case will now go before the courts. So we will have

:06:10. > :06:14.to wait and see. Thank you very much.

:06:14. > :06:18.Police divers have spent the day searching the river in Bristol for

:06:18. > :06:23.a university student who has gone missing after a night out. William

:06:23. > :06:26.Appleby, who is 19, was last seen in a nightclub near Temple Meads

:06:26. > :06:32.Station in the early hours of Sunday. His twin brother pleaded

:06:32. > :06:38.today for him to come home. This is the last time Will Appleby

:06:38. > :06:43.has been seen, out celebrating the end of his first year at university

:06:43. > :06:51.with a group of friends. The time is 2.53am on Sunday. Nobody saw him

:06:51. > :06:56.leave the club. At 3.15am a friend sent him a text, "Are you?" No

:06:56. > :06:59.reply. The last time his phone was known to have been on was 3.27am.

:06:59. > :07:03.Will east university accommodation is less than 15 minutes from Motion.

:07:03. > :07:06.The obvious route home doesn't take him near the river. Today, day five

:07:06. > :07:12.of the investigation, the police divers were called in. We have done

:07:12. > :07:17.a lot of physical searching. Unfortunately, to no avail. This is

:07:17. > :07:20.a measure that we need to take now to expand the search and obviously

:07:20. > :07:24.put the dive team in to around the location of the nightclub.

:07:24. > :07:27.William's a keen skateboarder. He was supposed to have been going on

:07:27. > :07:31.holiday with his family tomorrow. Instead, his parents and twin

:07:31. > :07:35.brother Alex are planning to come to Bristol in a desperate bid for

:07:35. > :07:41.information. Wherever you are, just know we love

:07:41. > :07:46.you and all we want is you home, like just - we are not bothered

:07:46. > :07:51.whatever situation - if you can get home or get in contact, please do.

:07:51. > :07:54.We are out of our mind. The missing posters are up all over town. The

:07:54. > :08:01.police are keen to hear from anyone who thinks they might be able to

:08:01. > :08:05.help. The nightclub's owner is adding his voice to the appeal.

:08:05. > :08:10.seems to be a regular. We are well concerned about it. Everybody needs

:08:10. > :08:13.to think back to Saturday night see if they saw this lad, if they have

:08:13. > :08:18.any information at all, get hold of the police station. The worry is,

:08:18. > :08:22.as time goes on, hopes of a happy ending start to fade away.

:08:22. > :08:25.The big question now is where does the investigation go from here? The

:08:25. > :08:31.police divers have spent all day searching this part of Bristol's

:08:31. > :08:35.river system. As far as we know, they haven't found anything today.

:08:35. > :08:39.When I spoke to a detective this morning, he said there were a

:08:39. > :08:43.number of lines of enquiry they could pursue. One of those involves

:08:43. > :08:48.trawling through hours of CCTV footage. The reason why that could

:08:48. > :08:51.be important is because the last confirmed sighting they had was

:08:51. > :08:56.still inside the club, that is 2.53am on Sunday. They don't know

:08:56. > :09:03.if he left the club or if and when he did, which direction he went in.

:09:03. > :09:06.That might help. The other thing they might do is to go back to

:09:06. > :09:10.Motion, go back to the club on Saturday night and try to speak to

:09:10. > :09:17.some of the 1,700 people who were there that night just to see

:09:17. > :09:22.whether any of them hold the key to this investigation.

:09:22. > :09:25.This is Thursday's Point West. Good to have your company. Two good

:09:25. > :09:31.reasons to stay with us. We will be meeting the Wiltshire sculptor who

:09:31. > :09:36.has turned a Gold Cup winner into a stunning bronze.

:09:36. > :09:44.Animation altercation - but who is the real owner of Paul McCartney's

:09:44. > :09:49.cartoon creations? First, a teenager from Taunton who

:09:49. > :09:53.died in a road accident has been named. 13-year-old Amy Hofmeister

:09:53. > :09:58.was hit by a car while riding her bike on Blackbrook Way yesterday

:09:58. > :10:02.evening. Two men have been arrested and remain in police custody. A 19-

:10:02. > :10:05.year-old woman, who was also arrested, has been released on bail.

:10:05. > :10:08.The police are asking anyone who witnessed the incident to contact

:10:08. > :10:12.them. The MP for Yeovil, David Laws, has

:10:12. > :10:16.come to the end of a seven-day suspension from the House of

:10:16. > :10:20.Commons. It followed a report which found the Liberal Democrat had

:10:20. > :10:25.broken the rules on expenses when he claimed rent which went to his

:10:25. > :10:30.partner. Mr Laws resigned as a Cabinet minister weeks after last

:10:30. > :10:34.year's election. He spent some of the last week working in his

:10:34. > :10:38.constituency. The luxury goods maker Mulberry has

:10:38. > :10:43.more than quadrupled its annual profits. The company has doubled

:10:43. > :10:48.the production of women's handbags as a result of a rapid increase in

:10:48. > :10:53.demand. It is now expanding and 50 new jobs will be created.

:10:53. > :10:58.Tomorrow sees the grand opening of Bristol's newest museum, the M-Shed.

:10:58. > :11:03.It is hoping to tell the story of the city from its triumphs to its

:11:03. > :11:07.tragedies. It is not the only museum about to open. The

:11:07. > :11:11.refurbished Gloucester City Museum and the new museum of Somerset in

:11:11. > :11:15.Taunton are both due to open by the end of the summer. So at a time

:11:15. > :11:19.when many public buildings and services are being cut, it appears

:11:19. > :11:23.that our museums are bucking the trend. No more so than in Bath

:11:23. > :11:29.where one museum has seen more visitors since it re-opened last

:11:29. > :11:34.month than past through its doors in a whole year.

:11:34. > :11:39.One month on and still causing a stir. 21,000 people have visited

:11:39. > :11:43.the museum this month, that is more than came in a whole year before

:11:43. > :11:48.the refurbishment. The real test is now going to be sustaining those

:11:48. > :11:52.visitor numbers. We need to keep those numbers up. There are so many

:11:52. > :11:59.ways of doing that. Exhibitions are critical. We have a wonderful Peter

:11:59. > :12:04.Blake show on at the moment and Gainsborough landscapes to follow.

:12:04. > :12:08.Saturday art club for the children. We have a concert tonight. Then

:12:08. > :12:13.events through the summer as well. Here in Gloucester, the city museum

:12:13. > :12:18.is hoping to emulate the Holburn's success. It re-opens in August

:12:18. > :12:24.after a refurbishment which might not be as dramatic but they hope

:12:24. > :12:27.will be as effective. Thousands of people locally, who have not been

:12:27. > :12:31.to this museum probably for decades because it hasn't changed very much

:12:31. > :12:35.at all over that time. Now we have got this radical transformation of

:12:35. > :12:40.what is here, it will be fresh and new. I hope people will want to

:12:40. > :12:44.look and they are going to take an interest in the history of

:12:44. > :12:51.Gloucester. As well as encouraging schools to bring their classes,

:12:51. > :12:57.both museums have kept their entry fee low. The main museum is free.

:12:57. > :13:02.There is a suggested donation of �3. Judging by the amount of notes here,

:13:02. > :13:07.many are prepared to pay that and a little more. The idea is that those

:13:07. > :13:11.that can pay and those that can't aren't put off coming to visit. It

:13:11. > :13:15.is not just the ceramics upstairs that people have been flocking to

:13:15. > :13:22.see, but here in the coffee shop cups of tea and coffee have been

:13:22. > :13:27.just as popular. A high standard has been set. Now, it just needs to

:13:27. > :13:31.be kept. There was a rather dramatic dress

:13:31. > :13:34.rehearsal at the M-Shed this afternoon ahead of tomorrow's grand

:13:34. > :13:38.opening and as the team carry out their last minute preparations, we

:13:38. > :13:42.have been taking a closer look at some of the exhibits on show. Many

:13:42. > :13:50.of them have been donated by members of the public including an

:13:50. > :13:56.overall worn by an Asian butcher from Easton.

:13:56. > :14:00.The overall kind of illustrates our trade. There is a huge change in

:14:00. > :14:05.Bristol with different communities and in the last ten to 15 years we

:14:05. > :14:10.have had a large Muslim community that has moved into Bristol. With

:14:10. > :14:16.that, obviously that has had a huge effect on local trade in a positive

:14:16. > :14:22.manner. As a butcher's we are very traditional as in providing to all

:14:22. > :14:26.the communities, but we are very modern when it comes to the

:14:26. > :14:30.traditional Asian trade. Halal fresh sausages, there is a big

:14:30. > :14:33.demand for it. People like ourselves are building bridges

:14:33. > :14:38.between very traditional community that has lived here for many years

:14:38. > :14:43.and the new community in Bristol. It was difficult to persuade people

:14:43. > :14:48.that it was a halal product. We have done that now. It is very

:14:48. > :14:52.popular. We think our trade is one that's very, very relevant to

:14:52. > :14:55.Bristol's recent history. We will be live at the M-Shed on

:14:55. > :15:00.Point West tomorrow evening. We will bring you a whistle-stop tour

:15:00. > :15:03.and show you all the highlights so do make sure you join us. If you

:15:03. > :15:08.can't wait until then, Graham Torrington will be presenting his

:15:08. > :15:15.show live from the museum tomorrow morning between 9.00 and 12.00.

:15:15. > :15:20.Looks great. A music company from Bristol has

:15:20. > :15:24.been named the official sponsor of this year's Harbour Festival. 30

:15:24. > :15:28.companies each paid �1,000 to be in with a chance of winning the title.

:15:28. > :15:34.The City Council came up with the idea to plug a gap in funding after

:15:34. > :15:42.its own budget was cut. The Festival usually costs �360,000 to

:15:42. > :15:45.run and attracts 250,000 people. The new sponsor is Jelli Records.

:15:45. > :15:52.We look after local musicians, especially this young lady here,

:15:52. > :15:56.who is signed to our record label, a small, local independent record

:15:56. > :16:00.label. I'm over the moon and I can't believe this has happened. I

:16:00. > :16:05.am still in shock. I have the champagne to prove it!

:16:05. > :16:09.To celebrate the 40th year of the Festival, there will be a week of

:16:09. > :16:17.special events at the harbourside leading up to the main weekend on

:16:17. > :16:23.29th to 31st July. A Gloucestershire football club has

:16:23. > :16:30.taken another step towards being truly green. Forest Green Rovers

:16:30. > :16:40.banned red meat from being sold at the ground, now the pitch is being

:16:40. > :16:43.

:16:43. > :16:47.grown and nourished organically. is something that I think is the

:16:47. > :16:52.tip of the iceberg and it is very exciting to be part of it. The

:16:52. > :16:57.organic ones do smell initially a little bit more than the other ones.

:16:57. > :17:00.After a few hours, or two, it calms down. Somebody was here when we

:17:00. > :17:05.were putting it on and yes, it did smell and we put the water on to

:17:05. > :17:09.calm it down. It won't be a problem on match day. It could take about

:17:09. > :17:12.two years for the earth to be declared organic by the Soil

:17:12. > :17:16.Association. The draw for the first round of

:17:16. > :17:20.football's Carling Cup has set up a local derby between Bristol City

:17:20. > :17:25.and Swindon Town. The game will take place at Ashton Gate in the

:17:25. > :17:27.second week of August. City finished 15th in the Championship

:17:27. > :17:32.last season whilst Swindon were relegated from League One.

:17:32. > :17:42.The match will be the second in charge for Swindon's new manager,

:17:42. > :17:46.

:17:46. > :17:52.Paolo di Canio. Other fixtures The Swindon Robins are using money

:17:52. > :17:54.from tonight's meet to support Lee Adams. The speedway legend left

:17:55. > :17:59.intensive care this week after an off-road motorbike crash in

:17:59. > :18:05.Australia last week. All the proceeds raised by programme sales

:18:05. > :18:09.at the knockout cup tie tonight will be donated to Lee and to his

:18:09. > :18:12.family. Now a set of drawings by Sir Paul

:18:12. > :18:16.McCartney has been taken out of auction in Gloucestershire after a

:18:16. > :18:21.legal challenge over who actually owns them. The cartoon characters

:18:21. > :18:31.were drawn in the 1970s and were going to form part of a film about

:18:31. > :18:32.

:18:32. > :18:37.Sir Paul McCartney's band, Wings. It was during the band's heyday as

:18:37. > :18:43.Wings were riding high in the charts that Sir Paul McCartney

:18:43. > :18:48.started doodling his pictures for an animation that was to be called

:18:48. > :18:53.The Bruce McMouse Show. It featured a family of mice who lived under a

:18:53. > :18:57.stage as the band toured Europe in 1972. The sketches were sent from

:18:57. > :19:01.Sir Paul's hotel in Antigua to the Gloucestershire animator Eric Wylam.

:19:01. > :19:07.Eventually, the project was shelved and the pictures stayed with Mr

:19:07. > :19:12.Wylam's family for almost 40 years. Eventually, years after Mr Wylam's

:19:12. > :19:15.death, his daughter decided to sell the pictures and they ended up here.

:19:15. > :19:20.They were due to go on sale today but they had to be withdrawn

:19:20. > :19:24.because the auctioneers were told the pictures still belonged to Sir

:19:24. > :19:28.Paul McCartney. It is thought the pictures didn't live up to Sir

:19:28. > :19:32.Paul's artistic standards. No-one from the auction house or Mr

:19:32. > :19:35.Wylam's family, or Sir Paul McCartney's legal team have been

:19:36. > :19:39.able to speak to us on camera today. Mr Wylam's daughter has said she

:19:39. > :19:42.always believed the pictures belonged to her father.

:19:42. > :19:47.Particularly after a passage of time, when they find something like

:19:47. > :19:50.this that they may assume that, it is theirs, the difficulty of

:19:50. > :19:53.understanding intellectual property law as to where the rights are

:19:54. > :19:58.vested and those rights because this gentleman appears to have been

:19:58. > :20:03.commissioned by Sir Paul McCartney, it means the rights would have been

:20:03. > :20:07.his and not the gentleman who was commissioned. The pictures had been

:20:07. > :20:12.expected to reach �25,000. Mr Wylam's family still believes

:20:12. > :20:20.selling them will be the best way to bring them to the attention of

:20:20. > :20:23.Sir Paul McCartney's fans around the world.

:20:23. > :20:29.A young artist from Wiltshire is having a good week at Ascot. Not

:20:29. > :20:34.just for backing a couple of winners! Charlie Langton has had

:20:34. > :20:41.his first life-size bronze statue unveiled by the Queen. The

:20:41. > :20:48.sculpture is one of the four-times Gold Cup winner Yeats.

:20:48. > :20:53.Yeats is digging deep! Yeats is a racing legend. Powerful and popular.

:20:53. > :21:00.So a life-size sculpture had a lot to live up to. No pressure then as

:21:00. > :21:05.the Queen took the wraps off 800 hours of artwork. I'm over the moon.

:21:05. > :21:08.I remember coming here when I was about 12 or 13, I think, and

:21:08. > :21:13.thinking just how amazing it would be to have one piece here, painting

:21:13. > :21:17.or a drawing, or something. But to have a life-size bronze in the

:21:17. > :21:22.paddock here unveiled by the Queen on Tuesday, it was incredible.

:21:22. > :21:27.stunning bronze has been well received. The Daily Telegraph are

:21:27. > :21:31.calling Charlie Langton the golden boy of equine art. The sculpture

:21:31. > :21:38.was created at his studio near Swindon. First from metal, then

:21:38. > :21:43.clay. From which a bronze cast is moulded. The real art though is to

:21:43. > :21:47.know your subject. I had a real strong mental image of him when I

:21:47. > :21:52.came here and saw him running in the Gold Cups and had that mental

:21:52. > :21:58.image of him walking exactly like that, long extension and the head

:21:58. > :22:05.down, neck arched. This bronze Yeats is 10% larger-than-life. One

:22:05. > :22:11.famous jockey can't get enough. is a very, very nice - I'm in love

:22:11. > :22:20.with it. Very well done, Charlie. And Charlie says the Queen was very

:22:20. > :22:28.complimentary, too. Now, let's turn to the weather.

:22:28. > :22:32.To be fair, what's happened is what we thought would happen. It's been

:22:32. > :22:37.a very mixed bag this week. A very mixed bag today starting with the

:22:37. > :22:42.rainfall that came in overnight. Heavy rain, most of the areas that

:22:42. > :22:45.got it were in the south. Still towards the north, a few sharp

:22:45. > :22:50.showers continued right the way through the day. We are not quite

:22:50. > :22:56.out of the woods just yet tonight. Accompanying the showers today was

:22:56. > :23:04.a very strong wind. Once again, we felt those gusts, over 30mph, in

:23:04. > :23:10.Bristol. Now, today, it was clouds like this that brought the showers

:23:10. > :23:15.in. We did see some sunshine. Tomorrow, it won't look like that.

:23:15. > :23:19.Wet, windy and distinctly chilly. That is because we have a big low

:23:19. > :23:24.pressure system coming in later on tonight which will sweep its way

:23:24. > :23:28.across very slowly pretty much the whole of the UK tomorrow. So cloud,

:23:28. > :23:33.wind and rain on the way making for a pretty dismal end to the week.

:23:33. > :23:36.For the rest of this evening and tonight, it is an improving picture.

:23:36. > :23:40.Any remaining shower activity will begin to die away. Those showers

:23:40. > :23:46.will push northwards and then we will begin to see a clearance of

:23:46. > :23:52.the cloud. So clear spells for a time and our overnight low is not

:23:52. > :23:54.too bad. Chillier in rural spots, but at least a period of settled

:23:55. > :23:59.weather to take us into the early part of tomorrow morning. After

:23:59. > :24:03.that, it is all change. Here is that low pressure system. The blue

:24:03. > :24:07.on the map really does speak for itself. Once that system arrives,

:24:07. > :24:12.it stays here all day. Accompanying it, that strong southerly wind.

:24:12. > :24:15.Because of that, our temperatures tomorrow, they certainly are

:24:15. > :24:19.struggling. 14 really I do think will be the average across the

:24:19. > :24:23.region. The rain, not really letting up until the latter part of

:24:23. > :24:30.the day when eventually we will begin to see some brightness. It is

:24:30. > :24:36.a one-day feature. Unsurprisingly, the sun index is low. Humidity is

:24:36. > :24:39.high. Then the outlook as we go into the weekend, it is unsettled

:24:39. > :24:42.once again. Tomorrow's system pushes away. We get a bit of

:24:42. > :24:47.brightness on Saturday morning before we get a lot of showers

:24:47. > :24:51.coming in. Some of those showers sharp, heavy at times, possibly a

:24:51. > :24:55.rumble or two of thunder and a strong westerly wind. Eventually by

:24:55. > :24:58.Sunday, that shower activity will have died away. I do think on

:24:58. > :25:04.balance Sunday is the better day of the week. More in terms of

:25:05. > :25:10.brightness and sunshine. Still that wind means the highs will struggle.

:25:10. > :25:15.So, for weekend activities, the chance of a shower for St Mary's

:25:15. > :25:24.Church Fete on Saturday. By Saturday night, though, those

:25:24. > :25:28.showers should have died away for showers should have died away for

:25:28. > :25:31.the Montacute Carnival. Thank you. I'm not going to forget

:25:31. > :25:36.my brolly! Let's return to our top story now

:25:36. > :25:41.and that crucial vote at the council house in Bristol tonight

:25:41. > :25:46.which could see a resolution in the Bristol City stadium saga. David

:25:46. > :25:51.Passmore is there for us. Is the way clear now for the stadium to be

:25:51. > :25:55.built? Well, Chris, you have been watching this story develop as long

:25:55. > :25:58.as I have, four years in the making and counting so you never say this

:25:58. > :26:02.is it. It is a very significant step and when I spoke to the club

:26:02. > :26:05.this evening, Guy Price, the new Chief Executive, he was saying they

:26:05. > :26:09.will now progress with the different things that they have had

:26:09. > :26:12.on ice, they have still got to buy a couple of pieces of land, they

:26:12. > :26:16.still have to sign contracts and put things in place before they can

:26:16. > :26:19.start the building work. They will do that but they are mindful of the

:26:19. > :26:23.fact that those opposed to the stadium still want to oppose it,

:26:23. > :26:28.they still want to take this matter to judicial review, they want to

:26:28. > :26:34.take it to the courts, get the courts to decide. That could drag

:26:34. > :26:38.on for many months. At the moment, it is a big step forward. You are

:26:38. > :26:42.talking about possible court action. What actually will be the next step,

:26:42. > :26:46.do you think, for both sides? certainly, all the people opposed

:26:46. > :26:50.to the stadium that I spoke to in the Council Chamber tonight, they

:26:50. > :26:55.are determined that it will go to the courts, they will go to

:26:55. > :26:58.judicial review. Those are the most passionate supporters of the town

:26:58. > :27:00.green application, whether other people who put their names to the

:27:00. > :27:05.town green application will continue the fight, we don't know.

:27:05. > :27:08.All I do know is that someone from inside the camp has said they will

:27:08. > :27:11.be meeting, probably tonight, certainly over the next couple of

:27:11. > :27:16.days, to discuss what course of action they want to take. Any

:27:16. > :27:19.judicial review would cost a lot of money. It will take a lot of time.

:27:19. > :27:27.So whether they have the stomach for that fight, we will find out

:27:28. > :27:32.soon. Thank you very much. That is it from us for this evening. I will
