:00:48. > :00:52.Looking back at Peter Roebuck's career.

:00:52. > :00:56.And a vigil for the young bride murdered on her honeymoon, she is

:00:56. > :01:06.remembered around the world. need some answers on what happened

:01:06. > :01:11.to my sister, to an hour precious sister.

:01:11. > :01:16.Good evening. Three people are still in hospital, but all are out

:01:16. > :01:21.of intensive care after the crash in Taunton 10 days ago that left

:01:21. > :01:26.seven people dead. More than 50 were injured and trauma experts

:01:27. > :01:31.fear the effects could be felt for years with those involved having

:01:31. > :01:37.complex psychological reactions. Members of the emergency services

:01:37. > :01:43.have been offered counselling. Will Glennon has this report.

:01:43. > :01:49.The crash near junction 25 of the M 52 Fridays ago will be for ever met

:01:49. > :01:54.-- etched in memories of those involved. Roger was incredibly

:01:54. > :01:59.lucky, his car was in the middle as vehicles burst into flames around

:01:59. > :02:07.him. He went to help others. When I stepped out of the car, it

:02:07. > :02:15.was like stepping on to a movie set. You do not think it is real.

:02:15. > :02:22.jumped out, and the front door was slightly ajar and the top. I put

:02:22. > :02:30.the lever in and tried to prise it open. I swung the iron at the

:02:30. > :02:34.window. It broke. I went around the side, took the glass out. I pulled

:02:34. > :02:39.her out. Of those seriously injured, Emma

:02:39. > :02:44.Barton was in a coma. She has now left intensive care along with two

:02:44. > :02:48.others. All three remain in hospital. Last

:02:48. > :02:54.Friday at a vigil, the dead were remembered, but also the survivors.

:02:54. > :02:58.We always talk about remembrance, but actually it is forgetting that

:02:58. > :03:01.is the difficult bit. Really difficult sometimes to be get some

:03:01. > :03:06.of the things we see in these tragedies.

:03:06. > :03:10.Experts in trauma three people cope in different ways. While some walk

:03:10. > :03:14.away and carry on as normal, others have deep emotional reactions,

:03:14. > :03:18.problems which can take years to overcome.

:03:18. > :03:21.Flashbacks, nightmares, palpitations, shaking, sweating,

:03:21. > :03:27.those who are lucky enough to have survived may have survived with

:03:27. > :03:33.some gruesome physical problems. As well as the stress or anxiety

:03:33. > :03:40.responses, we are looking at mood problems. It is a depressing think

:03:40. > :03:46.if you suddenly lose function in an arm or leg, let alone head injuries.

:03:46. > :03:50.For the emergency services, it is part of the job. They too can be

:03:50. > :03:56.affected and counselling is being made available.

:03:56. > :04:02.They have held briefings for staff, letting them know help is there

:04:02. > :04:05.should they need it. You can see more on tonight's

:04:05. > :04:13.Inside Out. The programme will also be

:04:13. > :04:19.exploring the issues surrounding the use of fireworks near motorways.

:04:19. > :04:29.With me now is Scott Ellis, what have you discovered?

:04:29. > :04:30.

:04:30. > :04:35.Tonight we take a closer look at fireworks to ascertain what -- what

:04:35. > :04:42.extent the firework display at the rugby club could have affected the

:04:42. > :04:48.crash. Firework smoke can make for cadenza. It is a concern to for the

:04:48. > :04:55.fireworks industry. It is self regulated. You don't need a licence

:04:55. > :05:02.to run a big display. We have enlisted the help of experts. They

:05:02. > :05:05.say smoke doesn't cause a problem, it dissipates. If the smoke had

:05:05. > :05:13.moved to the motorway, it would have thinned out, that is what they

:05:13. > :05:18.save. This is the man who runs the firework display and the balloon

:05:18. > :05:23.fiesta. 600 metres away, I would not have

:05:23. > :05:30.said too much of a problem. Within 100 metres, certainly not. 200

:05:30. > :05:35.metres, maybe too close. It is a bold commission that he

:05:35. > :05:42.would not have run a display there. He was talking about the

:05:42. > :05:47.destruction fireworks could cause. The firework display ended 10

:05:47. > :05:52.minutes before the crash. It is ongoing, but it will be many

:05:52. > :05:59.weeks before they report into the causes of the crash. They have 30

:05:59. > :06:02.staff following up 200 lines of inquiry. The club is working very

:06:02. > :06:06.closely with Avon and Somerset police.

:06:06. > :06:11.A driver is claiming that he followed and out of control lorry

:06:11. > :06:14.for 80 miles along the M4, but was unable to get help from the police.

:06:14. > :06:23.Stephen Barnes spotted the lorry swaying from side to side near

:06:23. > :06:29.Bristol, but says his calls failed to get a response until breading.

:06:29. > :06:35.Stephen Barnes set of on a long motorway journey last Wednesday,

:06:35. > :06:38.haunted by images of the M5 crash. But just after joining the M4 near

:06:38. > :06:44.Bristol, he sought an accident waiting to happen.

:06:44. > :06:50.There was an Arctic lorry in front of us, but was travelling at 60mph.

:06:50. > :06:56.It was swerving all over the place. Stephen, who broke his back in the

:06:56. > :07:00.Army, was with his carer. They dialled the police non-emergency

:07:00. > :07:10.number, 101. The trailer unit went over the

:07:10. > :07:20.

:07:20. > :07:25.We could have had another M5 crash. It wasn't until Reading that the

:07:25. > :07:32.driver was stopped, apparently over the drink limit.

:07:32. > :07:37.We had gone seven junctions weather Laurie could have come off. He

:07:37. > :07:45.could have killed someone. His own record shows the sequence

:07:45. > :07:55.of events. 5 the first run call is made. He caused again 20 minutes

:07:55. > :07:55.

:07:55. > :08:02.later. At 1130 Stephen is desperate and dials 999. The police caught

:08:02. > :08:08.him back at 1145 and at 1156 the Thames but the police inform him of

:08:08. > :08:12.the arrest. When we took up the complaints, we

:08:12. > :08:18.were also passed from force to force.

:08:18. > :08:23.Wiltshire Police said their nearest car was in Devizes, 17 miles away,

:08:23. > :08:29.so they alerted Thames Valley where the drama eventually ended. The

:08:29. > :08:32.police say motorway duties are taken seriously. Sometimes unmarked

:08:32. > :08:42.lorries are used to capture dangerous drivers, but Stephen

:08:42. > :08:47.Barnes says help took a long time. In other news tonight, public

:08:47. > :08:51.safety is paramount and it remains a very dangerous area. That is the

:08:51. > :08:56.stark warning still being issued tonight by Sedgemoor District

:08:56. > :09:00.Council 10 days after a section of the Bulwark dropped into the river

:09:00. > :09:05.in Bridgwater. In it comes as one of 30 people

:09:05. > :09:11.evacuated defied the warning and moved back home. Our reporter is

:09:11. > :09:18.there now. What more can you tell I am one East keep by the river,

:09:18. > :09:24.you might be able to make out that crack which is very visible. It

:09:24. > :09:29.happened on the same night as the dreadful M5 crash and 10 days on

:09:29. > :09:36.people are still out of their homes. They've sworn, one of the residents,

:09:36. > :09:41.says the temporary accommodation is not suitable, so he has decided to

:09:41. > :09:46.move back in. -- Dave. Let me remind you the full extent of the

:09:46. > :09:53.damage. It is a sizable crack and a growing

:09:53. > :09:58.problem. No-one is sure what this ball could take with it. We filmed

:09:58. > :10:02.Dave and last week at temporary accommodation at the YMCA, one of

:10:02. > :10:08.30 people evacuated and told it could be months before he is

:10:08. > :10:14.allowed home. Now Dave has gone back to his flat against all advice.

:10:14. > :10:20.He took a camera with him, so we could see inside.

:10:20. > :10:26.The only place available was in the YMCA, with my condition, to sit on

:10:26. > :10:29.a dining room chair every day, it was not the best thing to do for my

:10:30. > :10:33.pain. Where am in a lot of pain at the moment.

:10:33. > :10:39.The council says it does not harbour any accommodation and

:10:39. > :10:44.whilst the wall may appear stable, circumstances could change at short

:10:44. > :10:48.notice. For locals, it has become an attraction and many are

:10:48. > :10:53.wondering why it takes so long to get it fixed.

:10:53. > :11:01.We seem to be waiting for ever. Although the structure appears to

:11:01. > :11:05.have stopped moving, engineers say, don't be fooled, the site is still

:11:05. > :11:10.very dangerous. He is living within the danger zone,

:11:10. > :11:13.and for him and the businesses which cannot open, it will be a

:11:13. > :11:20.long wait before things get back to normal.

:11:20. > :11:26.Many local people want to know why the wall is not pull down, so the

:11:26. > :11:31.work can carry on. Why don't you just take the wall down and get on

:11:31. > :11:36.with it? It sounds simple, but it is a huge piece of engineering. We

:11:36. > :11:41.are talking about a flood defences, a highway and the buildings behind

:11:41. > :11:46.it. The wall provides extra strength to the road at the moment.

:11:46. > :11:51.We may have to take it down, but it is a decision to be taken as to

:11:51. > :11:57.whether we do that from the road all the water. The road has been

:11:57. > :12:04.compromised. The equipment we need would be huge. The adviser at the

:12:04. > :12:11.moment is when we will need to do it from the water. We will need

:12:11. > :12:14.hundreds of tonnes of concrete. Mr swan for his temporary

:12:14. > :12:20.accommodation is not suitable, are you going to help him?

:12:20. > :12:25.We cannot enforce any of the residents to stay away from their

:12:25. > :12:31.properties, we can only advise. The housing association is continuing

:12:31. > :12:36.to work with him, and we will do our best to meet his needs.

:12:36. > :12:41.A day after your help too. If you have pictures or the history of

:12:41. > :12:48.what has happened here, including the Big Sue were going in 1970, the

:12:48. > :12:54.council will be on the High Street. They would love to hear your

:12:54. > :13:01.memories and views. You are watching Points West with

:13:01. > :13:09.Chris and Alex. Coming up: Queen of the ice Amy

:13:09. > :13:13.Williams talks about her full season and winning Olympic gold.

:13:13. > :13:22.Cuddly comfort is the mother of invention, we meet the schoolboy

:13:22. > :13:31.who has won �30,000. But first, one year after she was

:13:31. > :13:35.murdered on her honeymoon in South Africa, Anni Dewani has been

:13:35. > :13:44.remembered at candlelit vigils around the world. Her husband is

:13:44. > :13:52.appealing against his extradition. Anni Dewani's family gathered again

:13:52. > :13:58.last night. This candlelit vigil was held at her home town in Sweden.

:13:58. > :14:02.A little after a year ago, family and friends came together to

:14:02. > :14:05.celebrate her wedding, but within weeks they were to attend her

:14:05. > :14:11.funeral after her brutal murder while on honeymoon in South Africa.

:14:11. > :14:16.The aim of last night's simultaneous events in London,

:14:16. > :14:22.Sweden, Cape Town and Bristol was not to discuss her death, but to

:14:22. > :14:28.celebrate her life. Not one single day has gone by without us thinking

:14:28. > :14:35.about Anni Dewani. My husband has barely smiled in the last year. We

:14:35. > :14:40.are just full of so much sadness and the miss her so much. It has

:14:40. > :14:46.been a torture for us. The idea for but did Gills came from social

:14:46. > :14:51.networking sites. It unites strangers and relatives in a common

:14:51. > :14:55.aim. Here in Cape Town the congregation at this time -- temple

:14:55. > :15:01.watched a message from Anni Dewani's father.

:15:01. > :15:06.Anni Dewani's husband denies any role in her murder, he continues to

:15:06. > :15:11.be treated for depression and post traumatic stress. He will go to the

:15:11. > :15:17.High Court next month to challenge the decision to extradite him to

:15:17. > :15:22.South Africa to face trial. I would say to him, go back to South Africa

:15:22. > :15:27.and answer the allegations against you, because we need this torture

:15:28. > :15:34.to end, we do not know how long we can take it. It is really hard for

:15:34. > :15:39.us, we need answers about what happened to my little sister, and

:15:39. > :15:44.to our precious Anni Dewani. These vigils were not about that, they

:15:44. > :15:49.were about a woman who died so young, but who touched so many

:15:49. > :15:53.lives. Police in South Africa say they are

:15:53. > :15:58.treating the death of the former Somerset cricket Captain Peter

:15:58. > :16:06.Roebuck as suicide. The 55-year-old who is in the country working as a

:16:06. > :16:13.journalist for the Australian media Test-match series, he is reported

:16:13. > :16:18.to have jumped from a hotel window. This is the hotel where he felt in

:16:18. > :16:26.his death. According to the South African media, he had been visited

:16:26. > :16:30.by police from the sexual crimes unit. It is believed two policemen

:16:30. > :16:36.visited him in his room to interview him about the incident

:16:36. > :16:41.which was reported in the police station of indecent assault. While

:16:41. > :16:47.the police were talking to him about the case, he asked to change

:16:47. > :16:57.his clothes. It is at this point he jumped six floors to his death.

:16:57. > :16:58.

:16:58. > :17:04.Peter Roebuck was Somerset Captain in a era of superstars. Friends and

:17:04. > :17:08.colleagues describe him as a brilliant mind, but an insecure one.

:17:08. > :17:14.He was a real no-no in many ways. He could be brilliant about cricket,

:17:14. > :17:19.but he would not let you get close to him as a person. I don't think

:17:19. > :17:29.he realised how much people want him. He will be remembered for his

:17:29. > :17:31.

:17:31. > :17:39.role in the club's decision to... The scars never really healed.

:17:39. > :17:45.What reaction would I get it I went back, I would say, Peter... He did

:17:45. > :17:49.not want to be seen too much. After being convicted for common

:17:49. > :17:53.assault for caning three young cricketers, he was seldom seen in

:17:54. > :17:59.England, living in Australia and South Africa where police will now

:17:59. > :18:05.investigate why he decided to end his life.

:18:05. > :18:11.This time two years ago few of us had heard the name Amy Williams,

:18:11. > :18:18.but on 20th February 1920 11 -- 2010, that changed. That was the

:18:18. > :18:26.day Amy one Olympic gold in the women's skeleton. From Top Gear to

:18:26. > :18:33.the royal box in Wimbledon, she has become our golden goal.

:18:33. > :18:43.Imogen sailors caught up with her over coffee in her home town of

:18:43. > :18:45.

:18:45. > :18:49.Bath. I guess expectation from everyone,

:18:49. > :18:55.we have got such a strong bunch of goals coming up behind me. There

:18:55. > :19:02.are six of us who are a really strong. The fight for places is

:19:02. > :19:07.very hard. I guess, it is trying to juggle the because of what I have

:19:07. > :19:13.been through and do enough training. It has gone well. It was a tough

:19:13. > :19:17.few races. Luckily, my consistency came through and I managed to get

:19:17. > :19:22.my place again. How much has your life changed

:19:22. > :19:28.since winning an Olympic gold? My life has changed and it hasn't.

:19:28. > :19:34.Half of me feels really different. I have had to grow out of my skin

:19:34. > :19:37.and a bit more, become more confident. Get used to interviews!

:19:38. > :19:44.And take opportunities which have been thrown at me. I have enjoyed

:19:44. > :19:48.that. On the other side, I still have to train, I go to the gym

:19:48. > :19:52.every day, I have to work through that side of my life.

:19:52. > :19:58.We saw you on 71 degrees north, how was that?

:19:59. > :20:03.I loved every minute of it will mean bat. That was the whole of

:20:03. > :20:12.March last year. I disappeared for a whole of March. It was

:20:12. > :20:18.challenging. Internally, it was a lot of psychology -- I had to

:20:19. > :20:24.toughen up. It was a lot colder than I was used to. We were out in

:20:24. > :20:32.it 24 hours a day. When I am competing, I will be outside for

:20:32. > :20:37.the minimum time possible. Your good friend was badly injured,

:20:37. > :20:43.how is she? We arrived there the day after her

:20:43. > :20:48.crash. I have spoken to her, she is positive. She has taken some walks

:20:48. > :20:53.in hospital. Her family are there now with her. A lot of

:20:53. > :20:56.encouragement, she will be fine and it back on track. So unfortunate,

:20:56. > :21:02.but these things happen in all sports.

:21:02. > :21:12.We were saying earlier about how far will always feel like home, do

:21:12. > :21:19.

:21:19. > :21:23.you really feel that? -- Bath. Whenever I am away, I love coming

:21:23. > :21:33.back home. It is a beautiful place to be. I never wish to move from

:21:33. > :21:33.

:21:33. > :21:37.We don't want her to, she can stay for ever. Bath City is in for a big

:21:37. > :21:44.player out after Bairbre play against Dagenham and Redbridge. And

:21:44. > :21:49.they drew one-all on Saturday. Sean Cannon scored in the first half.

:21:49. > :21:53.The replay will be on Wednesday 23rd November.

:21:53. > :22:00.Every once in a while a new invention hits the shops. When you

:22:00. > :22:04.see it, you think, I could have thought of that. That is the key to

:22:04. > :22:08.any great invention, simplicity. The kind of thing you cannot

:22:08. > :22:13.believe hasn't already been marketed. That is true of a new

:22:13. > :22:19.design designed by a schoolboy, it has won a national competition and

:22:19. > :22:27.a prototype is being built to test the market. The inventor is Joseph

:22:27. > :22:33.weaver, he is here with us now. What an incredible day for you!

:22:33. > :22:40.is the best day Abba. Here is a picture of your design.

:22:40. > :22:45.Basically, it is a soft animal attachment for the car seat. Its

:22:45. > :22:52.purpose is to enhance the seat and make it look like a friendly animal.

:22:52. > :23:00.A blanket rolls up to cover the child and the arms hold the child

:23:00. > :23:10.in place. You could do that for grown-ups!

:23:10. > :23:11.

:23:11. > :23:16.I wanted it to design a product aimed at children. The thing that

:23:16. > :23:25.hit me was a soft Tories. Children like a soft pourri to go to bed

:23:25. > :23:35.with. I had a few sketches on paper and then I had a recollection of a

:23:35. > :23:44.

:23:44. > :23:50.monkey my brother how does a soft Tory. -- toy. I am really impressed,

:23:50. > :23:54.but here is what Trevor Baylis had to say.

:23:54. > :24:02.I like the idea. It has brought into the equation the need for such

:24:02. > :24:09.a thing. This would make a fabulous Christmas present, or a bit of fun

:24:09. > :24:17.for the car. I like the idea. He likes you so much, he said, we

:24:17. > :24:22.will have to snap you up and offer you a apprenticeship. I have been

:24:22. > :24:28.offered a week's work experience next year. I am looking forward to

:24:28. > :24:38.that. It is a reflection on you. You

:24:38. > :24:40.

:24:40. > :24:45.obviously deserve it. Well done. Keep inventing.

:24:45. > :24:49.I will be at the peer on Weston Super Mare for the big fundraiser,

:24:49. > :24:57.but if you want to get involved you can.

:24:57. > :25:03.Our colleagues in BBC radio are hosting some screenings of the hit

:25:03. > :25:13.musical Grease. If you want to find musical Grease. If you want to find

:25:13. > :25:17.

:25:17. > :25:23.We want to know how the weather is looking. Yesterday it was glorious.

:25:23. > :25:29.Today, by contrast, it has been the opposite. We will see some

:25:29. > :25:39.improvements taking place tomorrow. This picture will sum up how the

:25:39. > :25:42.morning will develop. Brighter spells appearing. We have high

:25:42. > :25:52.pressure anchored out over Scandinavia. That is dominating

:25:52. > :25:57.things at the moment. Things are starting to shift around. The winds
