:00:10. > :00:14.Good evening and welcome to Points West. In our headlines tonight: The
:00:14. > :00:20.final whistle. Bristol City says its new stadium at Ashton Vale will
:00:20. > :00:23.now go ahead. Remembering Reverend Suddards. A
:00:23. > :00:26.two hour vigil tonight in the town where he died.
:00:26. > :00:31.Powering ahead and powering down. The differing futures for two of
:00:31. > :00:41.our nuclear power stations. And Hakuna Matata. Why the Hippodrome
:00:41. > :00:43.
:00:43. > :00:46.says it has no worries about the First tonight, it looks as though
:00:46. > :00:50.Bristol City's battle to build a new stadium at Ashton Vale could
:00:50. > :00:56.finally be won. The club has been looking for a new home for years,
:00:56. > :00:58.but the row over their chosen site has been long and bitter.
:00:58. > :01:00.Today there were dramatic developments, with both the
:01:00. > :01:03.football club and Bristol City Council announcing that the last
:01:03. > :01:09.legal hurdle had been dropped - a claim that was immediately denied
:01:09. > :01:12.by their opponents. Here's David Passmore.
:01:12. > :01:17.At stake, one of the largest development proposals in the south
:01:17. > :01:20.west and one of the most divisive planning rows in decades. Planning
:01:20. > :01:25.permission has been granted for a 30,000 seater stadium at Ashton
:01:25. > :01:32.Vale. But the �90m project has been halted by those who want the land
:01:32. > :01:35.designated a town green which would prevent any development. The
:01:35. > :01:39.Council suggested a compromise with half the site becoming a town green
:01:39. > :01:43.and the stadium built on the other half. But opponents wanted the
:01:43. > :01:51.entire site to become a town green and recently a judge said the
:01:51. > :01:53.matter should be subject to a full judicial review. Things started to
:01:53. > :01:56.hot up this morning when the council announced that the battle
:01:56. > :02:05.was over and that the application for judicial review had been
:02:05. > :02:09.withdrawn. The unknown person who bought the
:02:09. > :02:14.judicial Rigby who has now withdrawn that which means our
:02:14. > :02:17.judgment last year stands and the stadium can now be developed.
:02:17. > :02:20.But within minutes, this was denied by opponents of the scheme saying
:02:20. > :02:26.the "claiment had been subject to harassment and intimidation" and
:02:26. > :02:28.that they would substitute another applicant immediately. The club
:02:29. > :02:34.welcomed the news, but remained cautious about whether and when
:02:34. > :02:43.they would press the go button. So, once again, claims that the
:02:43. > :02:48.protracted planning row could be over may be proved to be premature.
:02:48. > :02:51.Opponents say they will continue to fight.
:02:51. > :02:57.David joins us now, what everyone wants to know is, is this the end
:02:57. > :03:02.of the row and can the stadium go ahead or not?
:03:02. > :03:08.We would all love to know that. All day it has been a battle of
:03:08. > :03:12.statement and counter statement. A legal table-tennis. Until this
:03:12. > :03:17.afternoon, it was fairly finely balanced. The issue about whether
:03:17. > :03:20.the applicant he wanted to take to judicial review could withdraw it
:03:20. > :03:25.or could they be substituted. This evening, the council issued what
:03:25. > :03:30.they believe is the most relevant document. A letter, which the name
:03:30. > :03:34.has been blanked out, but we assume it is the letter from the applicant
:03:34. > :03:39.saying very clearly that they want to withdraw the application to take
:03:39. > :03:43.the whole matter to the courts. They definitely don't want a
:03:43. > :03:48.substitute coming in and they definitely do want a stadium to go
:03:48. > :03:52.ahead. So this would seem to be the end of the matter, but as anyone
:03:52. > :03:56.who follows the story would know, opponents are determined and say
:03:56. > :04:01.they will fight on. They may challenge this in the courts and
:04:01. > :04:06.the fact that they can't have a substitute. So although the council
:04:06. > :04:11.believes this is the end of the matter, it is probably not.
:04:11. > :04:16.All intents and purposes it looks like a green light, but are Bristol
:04:16. > :04:22.City equipped to go ahead? They say they are. They still have loose
:04:22. > :04:25.ends to tie up. They have to buy a couple of small bits of land, but
:04:25. > :04:30.they claim that three months from the point of which they press the
:04:30. > :04:33.go Burton, they can start building. The town of Thornbury will come
:04:33. > :04:35.together tonight to hold a vigil for their murdered vicar. The body
:04:35. > :04:39.of the Reverend John Suddards was discovered last Tuesday morning,
:04:39. > :04:41.but it's believed he was killed sometime on Monday night. This
:04:41. > :04:51.evening, people will gather between ten o'clock and midnight to
:04:51. > :04:51.
:04:52. > :04:56.remember him. Our reporter, Jules Hyam is in Thornbury now.
:04:56. > :05:01.Good evening. In just over three hours time we are expecting many
:05:01. > :05:06.people from the parish and local community to begin arriving here
:05:06. > :05:12.for that the jail. It will be a chance for people to pay their
:05:12. > :05:18.respects and reflect on the life of Rev Frank John Suddards. He was
:05:18. > :05:22.only 59 and a man he was well educated. Peter and the Church in
:05:22. > :05:27.his thirties and came here to St Mary's in Thornbury just seven
:05:27. > :05:31.short months ago. The Church has been open throughout the day for
:05:31. > :05:35.people to privately remember their reverent. Or to publicly state
:05:35. > :05:39.their thoughts and feelings in a book of condolence. Flicking
:05:39. > :05:45.through the pages of that, there are many many messages that talk
:05:45. > :05:50.about a man who was warm, kind, deeply spiritual. A man who was an
:05:50. > :05:55.inspiration and a man who clearly deeply connected, not just with his
:05:55. > :06:00.community here, but also with many in his former parish in Essex. They
:06:00. > :06:05.are holding a formal memorial tonight, here there is a quiet
:06:05. > :06:10.Feigel. As both communities come to terms with the death, outside the
:06:10. > :06:14.walls of the Church we can see police vans and high-visibility
:06:14. > :06:19.jackets that remind us that his death is still the subject of a
:06:19. > :06:27.criminal investigation. In custody a 47 year-old man who is being
:06:27. > :06:35.questioned by the police over two murders. They have been granted an
:06:35. > :06:38.extra six hours to question him. Thank you very much.
:06:38. > :06:42.Next, as you may have seen earlier this hour, it looks like we're all
:06:42. > :06:44.heading for a drought. There's been so little rain over the last couple
:06:44. > :06:47.of years, that reservoirs and rivers across the country are
:06:47. > :06:49.already running low. To try and avoid water shortages,
:06:50. > :06:55.people in parts of Wiltshire are now being asked to voluntarily
:06:55. > :06:58.reduce the amount of water they use. Laura Jones reports.
:06:58. > :07:03.The river Kennet, poetically described by Sir John Betjemen and
:07:03. > :07:06.loved by anglers across the country, is in a pretty sorry state. It
:07:06. > :07:12.usually flows from near Avebury in Wiltshire to Reading, but at the
:07:12. > :07:16.moment it's not flowing at all. At this time of year, you'd usually
:07:16. > :07:20.expect there to be a good two to three feet of water in here and for
:07:20. > :07:23.it to be full of trout and grayling, but today, as you can see, it's
:07:23. > :07:26.completely dry. It's not just a problem here, it's
:07:26. > :07:29.been an unusually dry couple of years, and it looks like we're
:07:29. > :07:37.heading for a nationwide drought. Water companies are asking for our
:07:37. > :07:42.help. Water in this country is a finite resource. It is in short
:07:42. > :07:45.supply and it is not the blend of all things that we can just turn
:07:45. > :07:50.the taps on and forget about it. Doing simple things like turning of
:07:51. > :07:57.the tap when we brush our teeth can save six litres per minute.
:07:57. > :08:00.last time things were this bad when 1976. Everyone's hoping to avoid
:08:00. > :08:03.scenes like these, but it's not looking good. And farmers are
:08:03. > :08:07.warning that without water, food prices will soar. Back in Wiltshire,
:08:07. > :08:11.a group set up to save the Kennet say that more needs to be done -
:08:12. > :08:16.and fast. For most people the price of water
:08:16. > :08:21.is not a deterrent. People who are really hard up have to be protected,
:08:21. > :08:26.but for most of us we should pay more, we should be more efficient
:08:26. > :08:29.and we should have a lot more metering. In every country where
:08:29. > :08:32.metering is introduced, people use less water.
:08:32. > :08:35.Thames water say that by reducing our water use, and with the help of
:08:35. > :08:39.water saving gadgets avaiable for free on their website, we can all
:08:39. > :08:43.do our bit to help. But many fear that unless we're forced to use
:08:43. > :08:46.less, by having to pay more for it, nothing's really going to change.
:08:47. > :08:54.Well, a little earlier I spoke to Karen Gibbs at the Consumer Council
:08:54. > :08:58.for Water and asked her who was to blame for the situation.
:08:58. > :09:03.The situation that we are in has been driven by the weather
:09:03. > :09:08.conditions over the last couple of years. What is important now is how
:09:08. > :09:13.the water industry, the companies, the Environment Agency, work
:09:13. > :09:19.together to manage the situation. The bottom line is, our bills are
:09:19. > :09:23.thick, so where is the incentive to use less water? The incentive is to
:09:23. > :09:27.ensure that we can serve the water that is available for public supply
:09:27. > :09:32.for as long as possible to ensure that we can meet our needs for
:09:32. > :09:37.water through what is clearly an unusual situation in terms of the
:09:37. > :09:42.weather conditions. Do you think water is too cheap? Prices of gas
:09:42. > :09:47.and electricity are rising, water seems to be constant. Do you think
:09:47. > :09:52.people need to change their mind set about water usage? I think it
:09:52. > :09:57.is important that we recognise that water resources are under pressure.
:09:57. > :10:02.We have a growing population, we are subject to a changing climate
:10:02. > :10:05.and weather conditions so it is really important that there his
:10:05. > :10:09.resilience and the water system, but we must begin to recognise that
:10:09. > :10:13.we can't just take water for granted. It is important that we
:10:13. > :10:17.balance the needs of customers with the pressure and potential damage
:10:17. > :10:20.that it is caused to the environment. Thank you very much.
:10:20. > :10:23.Well, apart from Thames Water, we're served by Wessex, Severn
:10:23. > :10:27.Trent and Bristol Water, here in the West. We've spoken to all of
:10:27. > :10:31.them today and whilst they say that supplies are OK at the moment, they
:10:31. > :10:33.too are urging us to use water wisely.
:10:33. > :10:40.A 69-year-old man from Bristol has been spared jail after pleading
:10:40. > :10:45.guilty to sexually assaulting a 79- year-old woman on New Year's Day.
:10:45. > :10:47.Malcolm Dearlove, was sentenced to six weeks suspended for two years.
:10:47. > :10:53.The attack happened mid-morning, as the woman was shopping in
:10:53. > :10:56.Bedminster. He'd pleaded guilty at a previous hearing.
:10:56. > :10:59.A man has been found guilty of battering to death a 47-year-old
:10:59. > :11:03.man at a flat in Fishponds. Bristol Crown Court heard that Timothy
:11:03. > :11:07.Crooke was the victim of a prolonged and vicious assault.
:11:07. > :11:11.Thomas Tibbatts was found guilty of his murder by a majority verdict of
:11:11. > :11:16.10-2. He's received a mandatory life sentence and will serve at
:11:16. > :11:22.least 14 years. 23-year-old Zarah Bryant, who was also standing trial,
:11:22. > :11:26.was found not guilty of murder. The Chief Constable of Wiltshire
:11:26. > :11:30.Police has been appointed as the interim Head of the UK Border Force.
:11:30. > :11:33.Brian Moore became Wiltshire's Chief Constable in January 2008.
:11:33. > :11:38.Since then Wiltshire's crime figures have been so low it's been
:11:38. > :11:41.named as the safest county in England and Wales. Home Secretary
:11:41. > :11:50.Theresa May announced Brian Moore's new role in the House of Commons
:11:50. > :11:56.this afternoon. I do not believe the answer to the very significant
:11:56. > :11:58.problems exposed is just a series of management changes. The border
:11:58. > :12:02.force needs a whole new management culture and I can tell the House
:12:03. > :12:06.today that I have appointed Brian Moore, currently the chief
:12:07. > :12:09.constable of Wiltshire police, as the interim head of the Board of
:12:09. > :12:11.force. Brian Moore's deputy, Patrick
:12:11. > :12:14.Geenty, will take charge of Wiltshire Police until a new Chief
:12:14. > :12:20.Constable is appointed later this year.
:12:20. > :12:22.Welcome to Monday's Points West, temperature's rising and as the
:12:23. > :12:32.Lion King roars into Bristol, find out how the Hippodrome is preparing
:12:33. > :12:33.
:12:33. > :12:38.It is going to get a lot milder in the week ahead with temperatures up
:12:38. > :12:42.to the mid- teens. Otherwise the week looks largely dry. More
:12:42. > :12:46.details later. And as the Lion King roars into
:12:46. > :12:52.Bristol, find out how the Hippodrome is preparing to deal
:12:52. > :12:55.Protestors who've been served an eviction order to leave the site of
:12:55. > :13:00.the proposed new nuclear power station in Somerset say they've no
:13:00. > :13:04.intention of moving. The group began their occupation of a barn
:13:04. > :13:07.close to Hinkley Point about a week ago. Meanwhile people living in the
:13:07. > :13:09.shadow of the power station say they're being ignored by the
:13:09. > :13:15.planning authority who have to decide whether the new nuclear
:13:16. > :13:22.reactors are built. Clinton Rogers reports. The protestors insist this
:13:22. > :13:26.isn't a game to them, it's a question of protecting democracy.
:13:26. > :13:35.And they say they'll keep the camp fires burning - even under threat
:13:35. > :13:39.of eviction from the landowners EDF Energy. There are certainly some of
:13:39. > :13:44.us who are prepared to fight this all the way and they are going to
:13:44. > :13:48.literally have to carry as out of here because until we get a chance
:13:48. > :13:51.to have democratic scrutiny of these plans and return the power to
:13:51. > :13:56.the people about what happens in their country, we are prepared to
:13:56. > :13:59.keep fighting. EDF has applied to build the first of a new breed of
:13:59. > :14:01.nuclear reactors right next to their original station at Hinkley
:14:01. > :14:04.Point. They've been given permission to start the groundwork
:14:04. > :14:07.- even though they don't have approval yet. That's what's angered
:14:07. > :14:11.these protestors who say it's like digging foundations for a new house
:14:11. > :14:14.before you've got planning permission. This weekend, EDF
:14:14. > :14:17.served them legal paperwork, a lot of it, warning of action in the
:14:17. > :14:24.High Court next week to make this and any future occupation illegal
:14:24. > :14:30.and a contempt of court. They say they hope the protestors will leave
:14:30. > :14:35.of their own accord. Meanwhile there is anger today in villages
:14:35. > :14:37.which sit in the very shadow of Hinkley Point. A new body called
:14:38. > :14:43.the Infrastructure Planning Commission will decide in the end
:14:43. > :14:46.whether Hinkley C should be built. Yet while the parish of Stogursey
:14:46. > :14:49.will suffer the brunt of any building disruption for a decade,
:14:49. > :14:59.they've been left off a list of places where the IPC will hold
:14:59. > :15:03.
:15:03. > :15:08.public meetings. We are at the host parish that is going to take this
:15:08. > :15:14.massive project, if not the biggest project in Europe, on our doorstep.
:15:14. > :15:18.We have not even been given floorspace to hear our views.
:15:18. > :15:23.statement was issued this afternoon saying that this village had not
:15:23. > :15:29.been forgotten, the list of public meetings they had published was
:15:29. > :15:36.merely a draft one but that has done little to appease people here
:15:36. > :15:40.who believe they are being ignored over one of the biggest decisions
:15:40. > :15:43.to effect this region for a generation. This afternoon new
:15:43. > :15:49.protestors were making their way to the Hinkley occupation site. On
:15:49. > :15:52.many fronts this is a battle with a long way to run yet. Well, as EDF
:15:52. > :15:55.pushes ahead with a new nuclear reactor at Hinkley, just 50 or so
:15:56. > :15:58.miles up the coast, another of our power stations is about to be
:15:58. > :16:01.switched off completely. Oldbury opened in 1967 the two reactor
:16:01. > :16:04.plant on the south of the river Severn has been generating power
:16:04. > :16:08.for 20 years longer than planned, but next week it will finally stop
:16:09. > :16:14.operating. Our Gloucestershire reporter Steve Knibbs has been
:16:14. > :16:18.along to see how the shutdown has been progressing. When Oldbury
:16:18. > :16:22.Power Station was built in the 60's it was seen as one of the ways of
:16:22. > :16:31.future proofing power generation. There was also a promise of lower
:16:31. > :16:36.bills. The answer we all want to know is will it mean cheaper
:16:36. > :16:39.electricity? Not immediately but in the foreseeable future we expect it
:16:39. > :16:42.well. Once Oldbury was generating it was part of a small number of
:16:42. > :16:49.nuclear power stations. But at the official opening it was recognised
:16:49. > :16:55.that that number would soon grow. It was 10 years after the first
:16:55. > :16:59.atom bomb at Hiroshima that power was flowing into ye be read in this
:16:59. > :17:03.country and since then there has been a steady development of
:17:03. > :17:07.nuclear power but we are only at the beginning of the beginning of
:17:07. > :17:10.the development of nuclear power. The nuclear reactors here have
:17:10. > :17:13.powered the turbines for over 40 years - providing huge amounts of
:17:13. > :17:15.electricity to the grid. The high tech control room of the 1960's has
:17:16. > :17:18.hardly changed today. But now Oldbury, which is the oldest
:17:19. > :17:22.operating nuclear power station in the world, is about to power down.
:17:22. > :17:29.Last year reactor 2 was shut off and next week the button will be
:17:29. > :17:33.pushed to stop reactor 1. Then the work of decomissioning will begin.
:17:33. > :17:38.There is a lot of work to do following that in terms of making
:17:38. > :17:43.the plant safe in terms of the hazards stored here. We have to
:17:43. > :17:47.remove all the fuel stored over the next few years and release that for
:17:47. > :17:51.processing in Cumbria. There are chemicals on side that we have to
:17:51. > :17:56.make safe and we will do that with our teams here over the next 12
:17:56. > :18:01.months or so. After that we have got a lot of work to do in terms of
:18:01. > :18:06.playing away other hazards on the site and demolishing buildings.
:18:06. > :18:09.That will take as a roughly 10 years to complete. But the future
:18:09. > :18:13.of nuclear power at Oldbury isn't over. This land has been identified
:18:13. > :18:16.as one of 8 in the country where a new nuclear power station could be
:18:16. > :18:19.built. It's a debate that's very real at the moment - with the
:18:19. > :18:22.government committing itself to nuclear power. As for Oldbury Power
:18:22. > :18:25.Station, it will one day be razed to the ground, but not for 100
:18:25. > :18:29.years at least. Weston Super Mare's famous outdoor swimming pool, which
:18:29. > :18:31.has been closed for a decade, WILL be pulled down by the summer.
:18:31. > :18:35.That's the pledge made by councillors speaking on Inside Out
:18:35. > :18:37.West tonight. As our business correspondent Dave Harvey reports,
:18:37. > :18:47.the demolition decision comes despite a campaign to save the
:18:47. > :18:53.
:18:53. > :18:58.Tropicana supported by 4,000 local residents. I can remember having
:18:58. > :19:03.loads of nice days as a child here. Whether it's the weather was sunny
:19:03. > :19:08.and warm or cold you still got in and slam and enjoyed it, it was a
:19:08. > :19:18.day out. But those were the glory days. This is the Trop today. For
:19:18. > :19:22.the first time in a decade, our cameras have been allowed inside.
:19:22. > :19:26.Wow, it didn't quite estate, and you think enough is enough? It has
:19:26. > :19:31.gone too far. There has been nothing that has come forward yet
:19:31. > :19:35.to make us think this is a viable proposition so we think the answer
:19:35. > :19:38.is to demolish. Councillor Tony Lake quite simply thinks the
:19:38. > :19:41.Tropicana is beyond saving. But not everyone is prepared to drop the

:20:02. > :20:05.not alone. Last week's decision to demolish the Tropicana was taken
:20:05. > :20:09.against huge protests. 4,000 signed a petition, including the man who
:20:09. > :20:19.rebuilt the pier. And he says a similar miracle could be worked on
:20:19. > :20:21.
:20:21. > :20:26.the Tropicana. It is out of date the way it looks today but you
:20:26. > :20:30.could argue that DPR were out of date and today we have a brand new

:21:22. > :21:32.chosen to train with the first team and the young defender was the
:21:32. > :21:34.
:21:34. > :21:39.final choice. In a club like this it can be even more exciting for a
:21:39. > :21:44.young player. I am really happy for him. Over the past so many months I
:21:44. > :21:49.have been working hard and putting in the effort and thankfully it has
:21:49. > :21:53.paid off. And you can find out the whole story and how Paolo really

:22:24. > :22:27.Hippodrome later this year, marking the start of its first ever UK tour.
:22:27. > :22:31.But to accommodate such a huge production the theatre will have to
:22:31. > :22:35.close for a couple of weeks to do the structural work needed for the
:22:35. > :22:37.40 tonnes of scenery. Michelle Pascal was at the launch this
:22:37. > :22:45.afternoon and managed to talk to Thomas Schumacher, the man behind
:22:45. > :22:51.the magic. This is a show that's been seen by over 65 million people
:22:51. > :23:01.worldwide since its Broadway premiere in 97. And now it's coming
:23:01. > :23:02.
:23:02. > :23:12.to Bristol - so when and for how long? I love Bristol. It is
:23:12. > :23:14.
:23:14. > :23:23.brilliant to be here and bring a show of this scale here. We are
:23:23. > :23:27.going to open this summer. At the end of August we will be here with
:23:27. > :23:32.this story. You will remember these characters who we know from this

:23:48. > :23:55.the Lion King so popular? There it is a story of you and me but we
:23:55. > :24:02.Telek with animals. It is such a huge production it will be so hard
:24:02. > :24:07.to fit it into the Hippodrome. is a wonderful theatre. But it is
:24:07. > :24:13.100 years old. We have had to adapt the house so that actors can come
:24:13. > :24:17.down the aisles. We have had to rebuild the stage and Poots based
:24:17. > :24:24.backstage for an hour whole crew. It is a lot of work but it is such
:24:24. > :24:34.a great theatre how could we do otherwise? The tickets go on Sale
:24:34. > :24:49.
:24:49. > :24:59.this Wednesday. That looks amazing. They have a seeing that means no

:25:07. > :25:12.chance of anything profoundly cold has been put at 20% by the Met
:25:12. > :25:17.Office for the next couple of weeks. Temperatures will continue to climb
:25:17. > :25:22.and there will be little in the way of green which will do little to
:25:22. > :25:31.ameliorate the problems we saw earlier with levels of water in
:25:31. > :25:40.rivers. Through the rest of tomorrow it will be another mild
:25:40. > :25:45.day, breezy and largely dry. We will see temperatures increasing.
:25:45. > :25:55.If we run through today deep Blue is shifting away, that arctic air
:25:55. > :26:03.
:26:03. > :26:09.late mild beer until Thursday. -- increasingly mild beer. -- air.
:26:09. > :26:19.Temperatures potentially reaching 16 Celsius in southern England, the
:26:19. > :26:24.record for February set in 1998 was 19.7. I do not think we will see
:26:24. > :26:28.that but certainly 16 is quite possible. The weather charts in the

:27:11. > :27:16.be around five Celsius. Not as cold as last night. Tomorrow will see a

:27:30. > :27:36.around 10 or 11 Celsius. A good deal milder than that come Thursday.
