:05:53. > :05:56.in the same position. We have been told that he will need surgery. The
:05:56. > :05:58.evidence we've seen is that lots of things are no longer needed after
:05:58. > :06:01.the surgery. Since the UK's first SDR operation
:06:01. > :06:04.at this hospital in May funding has been agreed for 12 young patients.
:06:04. > :06:07.But around the same number of patients have found their PCT has

:07:37. > :07:40.will become known as Royal Wootton Bassett. A special naming ceremony
:07:40. > :07:43.is being planned in celebration. But the town is worried about the
:07:43. > :07:46.price of it all. The cost of crowd control, big screens and park and
:07:46. > :07:49.rides will amount to �65,000. And now there's an appeal for help.

:08:06. > :08:09.from the very beginning was unwavering. It was that dedication
:08:09. > :08:12.that will see the town granted Royal status, the first in more
:08:12. > :08:16.than a century. An honour this town never expected but one that is
:08:16. > :08:23.coming at a cost. We have to put on car-parking for thousands of cars
:08:23. > :08:30.and some buzzers to do the right and they cost money. - Mackrell

:08:33. > :08:36.to witness the Princess Royal hand over the letters of patent to the

:08:39. > :08:41.a repatriation The bill, around �65,000, has to come from the town
:08:41. > :08:44.council. Already the local MP has appealed for people across the
:08:45. > :08:47.country to donate to the fund, a call repeated here today. The Queen
:08:47. > :08:50.should pay for it. People are struggling to make ends meet.

:09:00. > :09:01.
:09:01. > :09:04.tell you that you have to pay for it. It is a royal thing after.
:09:04. > :09:06.there is a feeling that, after the announcement of Royal status came
:09:06. > :09:09.from David Cameron then his government should pay. But money
:09:09. > :09:12.issues aside, there is still great pride in this town that its humble
:09:12. > :09:15.but unwavering respect over the years has will leave this place
:09:15. > :09:18.with an enduring legacy. We were doing this to show respect for what
:09:18. > :09:26.the solders had done and we did not expect to be rewarded for what we

:21:02. > :21:04.But now, it seems, there's a definitive answer. It's all thanks

:21:07. > :21:17.little help from the Royal College of Chemistry. Louise Hubball has
:21:17. > :21:24.been to find out how it's done. Timing is everything. It is the
:21:24. > :21:28.difference between triumph and disaster. But this group have kids
:21:28. > :21:33.have taken to the lab to find the perfect formula and they think they
:21:33. > :21:38.have cracked it. The big question is, how long does it have to boil
:21:38. > :21:43.for a quick snack to be after mum boiling time is six minutes.
:21:43. > :21:50.many does did it take you to find that out because Mac were had a
:21:50. > :21:57.much a trial and error. You have been mugging at soldiers. What did
:21:57. > :22:05.you find. We found that they were stronger when you applied but
:22:05. > :22:09.reports that now we have to wait Brid to boil. The members at the
:22:09. > :22:17.Royal Academy Of chemistry have been impressed by the findings.
:22:17. > :22:22.Here is the science bit. Six minutes is enough time to have a
:22:22. > :22:27.reaction happening with the protein of the white. The optimum boiling
:22:27. > :22:37.time is six minutes. The optimum testing time is two and a half
:22:37. > :22:39.
:22:39. > :22:49.minutes. The big question is, what does it taste like. Perfect for
:22:49. > :23:01.
:23:01. > :23:11.It is gorgeous. It is a little bit hard for me but I will still eat it.
:23:11. > :23:17.
