:00:20. > :00:23.the wrong way on our motorways. A 30-year-old woman was killed at the

:00:23. > :00:26.weekend after driving north on the southbound stretch of the M5 between

:00:29. > :00:32.Saturday morning, and the southbound M5 between Clevedon and Weston still

:00:33. > :00:40.busy but traffic was at least moving - having been closed for the

:00:40. > :00:43.previous seven hours. It's not known exactly what happened here, just

:00:43. > :00:46.after midnight on Friday - but a blue Ford Ka ended up taking the

:00:46. > :00:53.wrong exit off this roundabout near Weston and heading north on the

:00:53. > :00:57.Southbound carriageway. It was hit by several other vehicles before

:00:57. > :01:00.coming to a stop. The police have now named the woman driving the car.

:01:00. > :01:10.She was 30-year-old Zoe Aspland, from Yeovil, who was killed in the

:01:14. > :01:17.accident. It's not known how or why she came to be travelling the wrong

:01:17. > :01:20.way. Today, Zoe's parents paid tribute to their daughter, calling

:01:20. > :01:23.her a loving mother to her five children and saying that she will be

:01:23. > :01:26.sorely missed by her brother Lee and sisters Alice and Laura. Meanwhile,

:01:26. > :01:31.a leading motoring organisation has said that more should be done to

:01:31. > :01:39.stop accidents like this from happening. Easy the busy junction

:01:39. > :01:46.during daytime, but obviously night-time driving, all of these are

:01:46. > :01:51.factors that can add to this safety risk. Sometimes there could be more

:01:51. > :01:54.signs just to get the message across. An investigation is now

:01:54. > :01:57.underway to try and find out more about what happened and police are

:01:57. > :02:00.asking anyone who might have seen anything, to get in touch.

:02:00. > :02:03.Four men have appeared in court charged over disturbances at a pub

:02:03. > :02:06.in Bristol. The trouble started in St George's Hall in Redfield

:02:06. > :02:10.following a march from Kingswood organised to raise money for a

:02:10. > :02:13.soldiers' charity. Two men - aged 39 and 40 - were fined up to �500 by

:02:13. > :02:15.magistrates for public order offences. A third aged 23 is

:02:15. > :02:23.awaiting sentence, and a fourth has pleaded not guilty to any

:02:23. > :02:26.involvement. Eight further people charged, are to appear in court at a

:02:26. > :02:28.later date. One of Swindon's main leisure

:02:28. > :02:33.centres has installed temporary showers - after Legionella was

:02:33. > :02:36.discovered. Routine testing of water at the Link Centre found higher than

:02:36. > :02:42.normal levels of the bacteria. It can lead to the potentially deadly

:02:42. > :02:45.Legionnaires Disease. The centre is run by Swindon Borough Council - it

:02:45. > :02:50.says no-one who has used its facilities has had their health put

:02:50. > :02:53.at risk. An event's being held today to raise

:02:53. > :02:58.money for the air ambulance service which helped save the life of a

:02:58. > :03:03.toddler. Sam Cooper-Stevens, then six months old, was in a buggy when

:03:03. > :03:08.it was blown into the water at Watchet Harbour in January. His life

:03:08. > :03:10.was saved by passers-by and the Devon Air Ambulance.

:03:10. > :03:14.Taking action to say thank you - Sam's Cooper-Stevens' parents Kate

:03:14. > :03:21.and Martyn manned one of the stalls at a ten hour fund-raising marathon

:03:21. > :03:25.for two local air ambulance charities. Sam was just six months

:03:25. > :03:34.old when his buggy was swept by a gust of wind into Watchet Harbour in

:03:34. > :03:37.January. He was pulled to safety by the dock master, and given CPR by a

:03:37. > :03:47.passer-by - Tanya, who was also at today's event, providing some of the

:03:47. > :03:48.

:03:48. > :03:58.entertainment. He has been absolutely fine, no lasting damage

:03:58. > :04:00.

:04:00. > :04:07.whatsoever. He is brilliant. What is today all about? Just raising

:04:07. > :04:13.awareness and raising funds towards the air ambulance for helping saving

:04:13. > :04:20.his life and many more. It is just amazing what they do. Local

:04:20. > :04:27.musicians have been performing for free all day. One of them was Tanya

:04:27. > :04:37.who helped baby Sam from the water and gave them CPR until emergency

:04:37. > :04:38.

:04:38. > :04:44.services arrived. It was very lucky that we were all there to help out.

:04:44. > :04:48.It was a great outcome and this is a great day to celebrate it all.

:04:48. > :04:57.Punch proved a big hit with the children, which was more than could

:04:59. > :05:02.Thousands of people turned out for the traditional cheese-rolling race

:05:02. > :05:05.on Coopers Hill in Gloucestershire today. The event went ahead, despite

:05:05. > :05:08.warnings from the police that organisers could be liable for legal

:05:08. > :05:12.action in the event of any injuries. A fake double Gloucester cheese was

:05:12. > :05:16.used for the first time in the event's 200 year history as a safety

:05:16. > :05:26.precaution. The winner of the men's race was an American, who'd crossed
