:00:14. > :00:19.Good evening from BC Points West. The headlines: Are dangerous dogs
:00:19. > :00:23.being trained in our parks? There are fears of a new craze as trees
:00:23. > :00:26.across the West are damaged and destroyed. Helping our cities to
:00:26. > :00:30.cover from the violence: The Labour leader tells us his plans for
:00:31. > :00:35.mending broken Britain. Also tonight: How this schoolgirl
:00:35. > :00:39.ended up on the transplant list after going to have a tooth out.
:00:39. > :00:49.From one side of Bristol to the other: I am enjoying the view
:00:49. > :00:49.
:00:50. > :00:52.people have been missing out on for Welcome to the programmes. First,
:00:52. > :00:56.clampdown has been ordered on irresponsible dog owners in the
:00:56. > :01:01.West to incur -- who encourage their animals to attack trees in
:01:01. > :01:04.parks. There is evidence that pets are forced to hang of branches by
:01:04. > :01:07.their jaws and strip bark from tree trunks.
:01:07. > :01:13.In Bath at the problem has caused tens of thousands of pounds of
:01:13. > :01:17.damage, as Scott Ellis reports. Search dog and tree on YouTube and
:01:17. > :01:21.this is what you will see. We cannot say what the owners'
:01:21. > :01:26.intentions are here, but this exercise will strengthen the dog's
:01:26. > :01:35.jaw and neck. The theory is in some cases that dogs are being prepared
:01:35. > :01:41.for fighting for. Tell me about the problem --
:01:41. > :01:49.problems on this tree. The bark has been ripped off. There is damage to
:01:49. > :01:55.the branch. But his most likely dog damage. This is a tree expert
:01:55. > :02:00.inspecting a 100 year old cypress tree in Henrietta Park in Bath. His
:02:00. > :02:06.-- its life has been shortened by damage. It is very sad. The staff
:02:06. > :02:11.and residents get upset by this. It is mindless vandalism. The problem
:02:11. > :02:14.is worth -- worse in Queen Square in Bath. Trees have had to be
:02:15. > :02:20.protected but it looks as if owners are lifting their dogs up higher to
:02:20. > :02:26.hang them on branches. This woman has seen a dog Paul a branch clean
:02:26. > :02:32.off. It is a bit scary, especially when there are kids playing here.
:02:32. > :02:37.You think, if it is being encouraged to do that, what could
:02:37. > :02:41.happen if a child approached it? Bristol there is also plenty of
:02:41. > :02:47.evidence of similar dog attacks on trees. One expert says in the main
:02:47. > :02:53.this is all about status. It is a macho thing, my dog can fan of the
:02:53. > :02:58.tree longer than your dog. -- hang off a tree. Some councils have
:02:58. > :03:03.smeared trees with Greece to keep dogs off them. In Bath they are
:03:03. > :03:09.relying on those who love the parks to report those whose dogs are
:03:09. > :03:13.causing permanent damage. More tributes have been paid to the
:03:13. > :03:17.soldier from Gloucestershire's First Battalion the Rifles who was
:03:17. > :03:21.killed in Afghanistan on Friday. Lieutenant Daniel Clack, who was 24,
:03:21. > :03:24.died leading a foot patrol in Helmand Province. His death was the
:03:24. > :03:31.force to be suffered by his battalion on their current tour of
:03:31. > :03:35.duty. -- the fourth. He was part of the heart and soul of the battalion.
:03:35. > :03:41.He died commanding his rifle men whilst on operations in the most
:03:41. > :03:46.demanding of circumstances. He had, day on day, demonstrated the
:03:47. > :03:52.courage and bravery that was profound and inspiring -- acreage,
:03:52. > :03:57.but as was his way, exercised with the lightest touch. Lieutenant Dan
:03:57. > :04:00.Clack will be repatriated to RAF Lyneham on Thursday.
:04:00. > :04:04.Two 17 year-old girls had been charged in relation to an attack on
:04:04. > :04:08.a jewellers in Bristol. The shop in Cabot Circus was targeted during
:04:08. > :04:13.last week's unrest. So far in Bristol 51 people have been
:04:13. > :04:17.arrested and 22 had been charged. In Gloucester, 23 have been
:04:17. > :04:20.detained in connection with disturbances there. Today, a 14
:04:20. > :04:24.year-old from the City was charged with burglary.
:04:24. > :04:28.It has been a week since the West saw scenes of rioting and unrest,
:04:29. > :04:33.and today politicians came here to try to find answers. There was
:04:33. > :04:38.praise up the highest level for a Swindon Project that helps the most
:04:38. > :04:42.troubled families back into society. Charlotte Callen reports.
:04:43. > :04:47.No excuses for this damage, instead today the search for answers. The
:04:47. > :04:50.government think they have found one. The LIFE project in Swindon,
:04:50. > :04:54.where police, council and health workers help families with what
:04:54. > :04:59.they call tough love. Going into their homes to cut criminal
:04:59. > :05:04.activity, truancy and domestic violence. What we have seen in
:05:04. > :05:10.Swindon is care in a human form, about taking on families, giving
:05:10. > :05:14.them confidence, giving them order, giving them discipline, giving them
:05:14. > :05:19.their lives back. The Prime Minister says it should be rolled
:05:19. > :05:24.out nationally, hopping up to 120,000 families in trouble. --
:05:25. > :05:30.helping up to 120,000 families. Ed Miliband also visited today,
:05:30. > :05:37.visiting St Paul's to hear from local people. Young people are left
:05:37. > :05:41.with nothing. Everyone is bored and want something to do. Rioting is
:05:41. > :05:45.exciting. People are coming up with excuses because they don't know the
:05:45. > :05:52.solution or the reason why things happen so they jump to conclusions.
:05:52. > :05:57.They say it happens because of X, Y and Z. No claims that our
:05:57. > :06:00.communities are broken, but they had strong words for looters.
:06:00. > :06:06.I have heard and what I think the commission will here is that there
:06:06. > :06:12.are excuses in society about responsibility, but there are also
:06:12. > :06:16.issues about how we give every young person a stake in our society,
:06:16. > :06:21.a sense of opportunity, and those issues need to be addressed. While
:06:21. > :06:28.rioters and looters are challenged in the West, the search to fix the
:06:28. > :06:32.underlying causes of these scenes on our streets has only just begun.
:06:32. > :06:37.You are watching BBC Points West this Tuesday evening. We still have
:06:37. > :06:42.plenty more between now and 7pm. Plots to come, including a dream
:06:42. > :06:50.come true for this Big Issue seller as he secures his perfect job.
:06:50. > :06:53.And a trip down memory lane, as we delve into Swindon's past.
:06:53. > :06:58.First, a routine trip for dental treatment may well have saved the
:06:58. > :07:01.life of a 12 year old Somerset girl. Keeleigh Redfern-John from Burnham-
:07:02. > :07:06.on-Sea was diagnosed with a rare condition when she was a toddler,
:07:06. > :07:11.but it was only when her parents took her to have a tooth removed
:07:11. > :07:17.recently that she was bound to be in the vast -- found to be in
:07:17. > :07:22.advance stages of kidney and liver failure. She is now higher priority
:07:22. > :07:29.for a transplant. Keeleigh may look and behave just
:07:29. > :07:37.like any other 12 year old, but now she knows she is very poorly.
:07:37. > :07:45.Basically, my kidneys are slowly deteriorating. My liver is not far
:07:45. > :07:52.off following its. -- following it. It was when she was taken for
:07:52. > :07:58.routine dental surgery to Musgrove Park Hospital, doctors ran tests
:07:58. > :08:01.and what they found surprised them and shocked Keeleigh's parents.
:08:01. > :08:09.They discovered that although she looked fit, she was in chronic
:08:09. > :08:13.renal failure. Her parents were told she needed a transplant. Fast.
:08:13. > :08:18.She has had to have more drugs since that stage. Anything could
:08:18. > :08:21.have happened, her blood could have gone down drastically, and it
:08:21. > :08:29.doesn't bear thinking about, what stage she could have been had by
:08:29. > :08:34.now. It is a little bit scary. Been on the transplant list is scary,
:08:34. > :08:38.but apart from that, I feel fine because I have grown up with it.
:08:38. > :08:43.have always been honest with her. We have always got the doctors to
:08:43. > :08:51.be honest with her and we have never hidden anything. Children at
:08:51. > :08:55.her rage, other children would not have coped. -- her age. Keeleigh
:08:55. > :09:00.already receives letters of support from across the country. They will
:09:00. > :09:07.help sustain her as she waits now for a double transplant. The family
:09:07. > :09:13.have been told it could happen in the next 12 weeks.
:09:13. > :09:17.A Bristol landmark has reopened to the public after undergoing four
:09:17. > :09:26.years of restoration work. Cabot Tower on Brandon Hill was built to
:09:26. > :09:29.commemorate the 400th anniversary of John Cabot's visit to America.
:09:29. > :09:35.Bristol visitors can now climb the tower again and enjoy the best use
:09:35. > :09:40.in the city. James Hassam is there now. How is it looking? You are
:09:40. > :09:48.right, they are the best use the city has to offer. It is beautiful
:09:48. > :09:53.up here. -- best views. Dry, a little windswept, but take a look,
:09:53. > :09:57.Bristol laid out like a patchwork quilt. It has taken a lot of work
:09:57. > :10:00.to get the tower that way and it is important that they got the work
:10:00. > :10:07.right. This building is regarded as one of Bristol's most important old
:10:07. > :10:13.landmarks. It has been a well loved landmark since television was black
:10:13. > :10:18.and white. A good spot for sunbathing back in the 1950s. More
:10:18. > :10:22.recently, the tower has been in need of TLC. Four years ago,
:10:22. > :10:27.engineers realised the metal supports holding it up were rusting,
:10:27. > :10:34.causing cracks like these in the stone. They spent four years and
:10:34. > :10:40.more than �400,000 restoring it to its former glory. It is an iconic
:10:40. > :10:44.building in Bristol history, built to celebrate the four centenary of
:10:44. > :10:48.John Cabot's trip to America. It is still standing and we have
:10:48. > :10:53.wonderful views and it is important as a building. We cannot let it
:10:53. > :10:59.crumbled to the ground. From down here at the newly reopened entrance,
:10:59. > :11:08.the top looks a long way away. Even more so as you take on the stairs,
:11:08. > :11:12.or 107 of them. Passing one or two lucky souls on their way down until
:11:12. > :11:19.you reach the top, and this is the reason the tower was so badly
:11:19. > :11:23.missed while it was closed. The views. From the Clifton Suspension
:11:23. > :11:30.Bridge to the SS Great Britain and the cathedral and council chambers.
:11:30. > :11:38.It is brilliant. I have been here once before 10 years ago.
:11:38. > :11:43.fantastic view, very good. I came back the first day of term and it
:11:43. > :11:48.was closed, so this is my first day back up. Hopefully, the first day
:11:48. > :11:53.of many. The work done on the tower should allow people to continue to
:11:53. > :11:59.enjoy the view from the top for another hundred years. One of the
:11:59. > :12:03.group's delight to to see the tower open its doors again for business,
:12:03. > :12:06.our friends of Brandon Hill. -- delighted. They look after the
:12:06. > :12:11.land around the tower and the gardens, which are looking handsome
:12:11. > :12:15.this evening. From that group we have a representative, David, who
:12:16. > :12:20.has been taking in the view himself. You must be delighted to see the
:12:20. > :12:27.tower open again. Very excited and delighted, of course. We see
:12:27. > :12:33.Brandon Hill as that you're in the crown of the -- jaw in the crown of
:12:33. > :12:40.historic Bristol. We don't own it, the council owns it, but we welcome
:12:40. > :12:44.historians who want to come along. You can see our work, because we do
:12:44. > :12:49.work like clearing the ground and apply for grants to help maintain
:12:49. > :12:54.the bowling green. We see our role as to Protect and maintain the area.
:12:54. > :12:58.One of the points you made to me is while it is -- it is fantastic to
:12:58. > :13:06.see where, tower, you want to see the surroundings are looked after
:13:06. > :13:10.as well. This is a fantastic day, and we think the question is, what
:13:10. > :13:15.next? The base of the tower is more historic and the tower itself, and
:13:15. > :13:25.that is crumbling, the walls are falling down. A lot of money needs
:13:25. > :13:26.
:13:26. > :13:31.spending. There has already been a We do not want to get to the stage
:13:31. > :13:35.where this falls down a again. We want to look after it. Very simple
:13:35. > :13:42.lessons, we want to keep a bit of money.
:13:42. > :13:46.Thank you very much. They want to see this become a destination in
:13:46. > :13:51.its own right, something people will come to Bristol to see on its
:13:51. > :13:58.own merits. On an evening like this it is hard to see them being proved
:13:58. > :14:03.wrong. The funeral of a Wiltshire boy who
:14:03. > :14:09.was killed by a polar bear is to take place at Salisbury Cathedral.
:14:09. > :14:15.He was on an organised Arctic exhibition to Norway, and was
:14:15. > :14:18.attacked when the animal got inside his tent. It takes place on the
:14:18. > :14:22.26th August. This will be a private ceremony.
:14:22. > :14:29.First Great Western is amongst the companies that will be raising
:14:29. > :14:38.fares by eight % next year. They are one of the top 10 of her most
:14:38. > :14:42.crowded trains. The government has insisted that the fare rise will
:14:43. > :14:48.improve the train network. James Dyson's company has reported
:14:48. > :14:54.its most profitable year ever. The Wiltshire entrepreneur who invented

:15:16. > :15:20.his dream job after a chance encounter. He was selling outside a
:15:20. > :15:28.bookshop and sped to a passer-by about his ambitions to be an

:15:49. > :15:55.in a dream career. I have always drawn up since I was really young.
:15:55. > :16:01.My mother used to paint pictures. If a woman came up to take pick
:16:01. > :16:05.Stuart -- to take pictures of books in the window. I said I have always
:16:05. > :16:10.wanted to paint pictures. I did some sketches for her. She never
:16:10. > :16:16.got back in touch with me, but I showed him to some of the staff in
:16:16. > :16:24.Waterstone's, and they said they would use them. After showing his
:16:24. > :16:30.drawings, he was handed �20 for materials. Deborah was the person
:16:30. > :16:34.that he impressed. I thought they were amazing. We put them in the
:16:34. > :16:38.window, there was an amazing response.
:16:38. > :16:43.Thanks to the display his talent was spotted by a publisher. Then
:16:43. > :16:48.next book just happened to a feature dragons. John West plans
:16:48. > :16:54.three books with John, promising him a slice of the profits, and a
:16:54. > :16:58.step on the ladder. It is great to be designing things for people. It
:16:58. > :17:03.is very difficult to get into the industry. I thought it was a very
:17:03. > :17:10.good enterprise, the young chap from the Big Issue wanted to be an
:17:10. > :17:18.illustrator. My dream would to be have a -- my dream were to be
:17:18. > :17:26.having a job in art. I would like to illustrate comics. A dream

:18:42. > :18:48.The idea is to celebrate what is coming -- what is becoming part of

:20:08. > :20:14.regarded as something to stamp out as quickly as possible, many of the
:20:14. > :20:19.street artists who are currently working in Bristol professionally,

:20:23. > :20:28.away, and their houses raided and their computers taken away from

:21:46. > :21:50.very well. He's great at what he does, a fantastic artist. He was at
:21:50. > :21:55.the right time at the right place. The power of that brand has rubbed
:21:55. > :22:01.off. Attitudes seem to be changing, people travelled just to see the
:22:01. > :22:06.staff. They take photographs of it. They talk about it on line. Bristol

:22:24. > :22:31.not be paid -- will not be painted over is a real triumph. You would
:22:31. > :22:40.not do it to a painting, why would you do it to graffiti?
:22:40. > :22:46.The power of the Banksy brand. This is not actually a Banksy, it was me
:22:46. > :22:51.messing about. Will he come back here? We do not know. We will be
:22:51. > :22:55.back on Friday to find out how these guys got on.
:22:56. > :23:01.Thanks very much, you have a new career in waiting. He did it all in
:23:01. > :23:05.one go! He was a Swindon character, an
:23:06. > :23:11.amateur photographer who captured tens of thousands of images of
:23:11. > :23:14.locals. Now a group of students are using those pictures, and portraits
