:00:16. > :00:22.The shocking face of gang culture. A women is filmed attacking a man for

:00:23. > :00:26.showing disrespect and then the video is sent to others as a

:00:27. > :00:31.warning. The campaign to encourage drivers and cyclists to be friends

:00:32. > :00:36.not enemies on the roads. The only solution is to have cyclists and

:00:37. > :00:41.motorists on separate Broadway than that is never going to happen

:00:42. > :00:46.because that will cost more money than the government has. The

:00:47. > :00:50.emergency lifeboat which has undergone a ?1 million refit in

:00:51. > :00:56.Gloucester. Is this the country's biggest Dr Who

:00:57. > :01:02.fan? The viewer planning to watch over 700 episodes.

:01:03. > :01:06.A gang who attacked a man because he showed them disrespect has been sent

:01:07. > :01:10.to jail in Gloucester. They filmed the attacked on a mobile phone and

:01:11. > :01:14.then sent it other people as a warning. Today the court was told

:01:15. > :01:17.four of the attackers belonged to a group called Other People's Money. A

:01:18. > :01:20.fifth defendant was said to have close links to that organisation.

:01:21. > :01:29.Today's conviction is the first major success for a special gangs

:01:30. > :01:32.unit. The reality of gang culture in

:01:33. > :01:35.Gloucestershire. This mobile phone footage shows Mica McLeary, a member

:01:36. > :01:40.of OPM, Other People's Money, attacking a man for disrespecting

:01:41. > :01:43.the gang's leader. The video was circulated as a warning to others,

:01:44. > :01:51.as was this picture showing the victim battered and bruised with two

:01:52. > :01:56.of the defendants. It was a terrifying ordeal for the victim who

:01:57. > :02:03.was taken under false pretences to an address and then subject to a

:02:04. > :02:07.prolonged assault. This poor job `` bordered on torture. All five jailed

:02:08. > :02:10.today were there at the time of the attack and said to be equally

:02:11. > :02:13.responsible. The judge branded one of them, Freeston Horsford, seen

:02:14. > :02:22.here outside court two years ago, as the leader of OPM. Fighting

:02:23. > :02:27.generally. All the time. It's not his real name, but Paul was a former

:02:28. > :02:32.member of OPM. They treated me like family. They were my friends. They

:02:33. > :02:36.brought me up. They brought me up in the environment that was surrounding

:02:37. > :02:43.me. They walk my eyes up to reality. The power the gang had over

:02:44. > :02:49.him often pushed him too far. The raw some situations where I put guns

:02:50. > :02:55.in people 's faces, I put knives in people 's faces, I had to rob

:02:56. > :03:09.people. In my heart I did not want to. I had to drop it. Get rid of

:03:10. > :03:13.them. This is a picture of the largest gang we have in Gloucester,

:03:14. > :03:17.OPM. Today's convictions are a major victory for the Avenger Task Force,

:03:18. > :03:19.set up earlier this year to work directly with gang members to turn

:03:20. > :03:23.their lives around. Officers believe that the hierarchy of OPM has been

:03:24. > :03:31.affected with Freeston Horsford behind bars. He is a very evil and

:03:32. > :03:34.covertly man. When he was active and others where, we knew that we had

:03:35. > :03:41.people coming down from other cities. As he has been locked up,

:03:42. > :03:44.those people have not come back to Gloucester. That is what we are

:03:45. > :03:46.trying to do to make our communities safer. Today's case wouldn't have

:03:47. > :03:50.happened without someone going to the police with information. That

:03:51. > :03:53.person has now been given a new home and protection. But the future

:03:54. > :04:00.success of the ATF relies on the community speaking out. The problem

:04:01. > :04:02.we have is finding information and intelligence. Even though

:04:03. > :04:06.communities have been very forward and very supportive of what we do,

:04:07. > :04:11.ice will urge people to make contact with us because it is about as

:04:12. > :04:14.helping young people move away from this activity. Meanwhile the five

:04:15. > :04:19.people linked to the gang are tonight in prison. The city, police

:04:20. > :04:22.say, a safer place for it. The police have been out in force in

:04:23. > :04:26.Bristol today, trying to improve road safety following the deaths of

:04:27. > :04:29.two cyclists in the last week. Officers say they're also trying to

:04:30. > :04:36.reduce tension between cyclists and drivers on our roads.

:04:37. > :04:39.As dawn was breaking this morning, bikes, buses, lorries and cars

:04:40. > :04:46.already competing here to cross one of Bristol's busiest junctions. And

:04:47. > :04:49.this morning police patrolled the rush hour reminding those on two

:04:50. > :05:02.wheels, and four or more, about the rules of the road. Something we have

:05:03. > :05:07.seen quite a lot of those drivers dropping at the lights but pulling

:05:08. > :05:11.up inside the red cycle box. Most do not seem to realise that they are

:05:12. > :05:15.breaking the law and it can carry the same penalty as running every

:05:16. > :05:19.light. Boxes are one of the things we are dealing with, also cyclists

:05:20. > :05:23.is going through red lights because we have had complaints about

:05:24. > :05:27.cyclists and cars going through red lights. We have had complaints about

:05:28. > :05:29.cyclists on the pavement. Cycling safety, and the behaviour of

:05:30. > :05:33.cyclists and motorists on the roads, has hit the headlines, after a

:05:34. > :05:38.series of deaths in London. Many drivers believe cyclists often

:05:39. > :05:45.compromise their own safety. But many cyclists say it is sometimes

:05:46. > :05:51.safer to break the rules. They go through lights all the time. The

:05:52. > :05:56.lights do not mean a thing. If you are on a bicycle, it is a case of, I

:05:57. > :06:02.am not stopping, I have brakes but I am not going to use them. The only

:06:03. > :06:05.solution is to have cyclists and motorists on separate roadways. That

:06:06. > :06:10.is not going to happen because it is going to cost more money than the

:06:11. > :06:12.government has. We have to see it from each other's perspective full

:06:13. > :06:18.is Police say they've talked to dozens of drivers in the past two

:06:19. > :06:21.days about breaking in the red box. Top They've seen more than 60

:06:22. > :06:24.cyclists skipping through red lights. They hope this type of

:06:25. > :06:28.campaign will help them co`exist more safely.

:06:29. > :06:31.The Transport Secretary has been asked to look at conditions on a

:06:32. > :06:35.notorious stretch of road, following three deaths earlier this month. The

:06:36. > :06:40.A417 runs north of Cirencester and through Gloucester. It was discussed

:06:41. > :06:44.this morning by a delegation including three of the West MPs and

:06:45. > :06:48.local councillors. There have been calls for one part of the road to be

:06:49. > :06:56.made dual carriageway to cut the number of accidents. There is an

:06:57. > :07:00.opportunity to get funding for this vital piece of infrastructure for

:07:01. > :07:04.Gloucestershire. There is currently a funding round for one of the major

:07:05. > :07:07.transport schemes nationally and those decisions are going to be

:07:08. > :07:10.taking place over the next 12 months. Mr Hawthorne says all

:07:11. > :07:22.parties should work together to make sure the bid for funding is

:07:23. > :07:30.successful. Still to come, a look at the weekend

:07:31. > :07:34.weather. It has been cold and wintry across

:07:35. > :07:38.the west. It is called on the roof. Will it stay like that? Join me

:07:39. > :07:41.later to find out. The UK Independence Party in

:07:42. > :07:44.Somerset is warning that towns like Yeovil, where there's already a

:07:45. > :07:49.significant Polish community, can't cope with more immigrants. It's now

:07:50. > :07:52.claimed a new wave of immigration from Bulgaria and Romania is on its

:07:53. > :08:02.way, because working restrictions are being lifted. So what's the real

:08:03. > :08:13.picture here in the West? This is Virgil. He's Romanian and

:08:14. > :08:21.works in Yeovil as a taxi driver. We rent the cabs. We are 45 Romanians.

:08:22. > :08:24.The reason he's come here is simple. More money, more opportunities. And

:08:25. > :08:27.he's not alone. These Romanians and Bulgarians are working on

:08:28. > :08:30.agricultural visas on a fruit farm in Somerset. They say they're not

:08:31. > :08:38.taking jobs from locals because they're the only ones who want to do

:08:39. > :08:42.the work. I think they prefer the good jobs. They do not like working

:08:43. > :08:47.agriculture, because the same thing happened in my country. I do not

:08:48. > :08:50.want to work in agriculture in my country, but I work it here. But

:08:51. > :08:53.according to the UKIP councillor for Central Yeovil, people are fed up

:08:54. > :09:02.with the drain immigration is putting on the community. The main

:09:03. > :09:10.cause was concern regarding immigration. Every person I spoke to

:09:11. > :09:17.said immigration. When you have got a relatively small town, it can have

:09:18. > :09:21.a big impact. Just take a look at the number of Polish immigrants in

:09:22. > :09:24.this part of the world. It's gone up significantly since 2001. There are

:09:25. > :09:27.now more than 30,000 living in the west. Here at St Gildas Catholic

:09:28. > :09:30.Primary School in Yeovil you can really see the difference

:09:31. > :09:34.immigration has made. In 2000 none of the children spoke English as a

:09:35. > :09:42.second language. Now that's up to 50%. But that's not a bad thing,

:09:43. > :09:46.according to the head teacher. We are an inclusive Catholic school.

:09:47. > :09:51.Our first premises to get on with our neighbours, we love our

:09:52. > :09:54.neighbours. Most of the parents of children here work at the hospital

:09:55. > :09:57.or for local businesses. Nationally, the numbers claiming benefits is

:09:58. > :10:05.much higher amongst UK`born people than immigrants. What we are seeing

:10:06. > :10:09.is that most of those people coming in who are economic migrants, they

:10:10. > :10:12.come here to work, they do not come here to live on benefits. We are

:10:13. > :10:18.just 40 days from the lifting of working restrictions on Bulgaria and

:10:19. > :10:21.Romania. There is an accident waiting to happen, a catastrophe

:10:22. > :10:24.coming ahead full is But no`one yet knows how many more people will

:10:25. > :10:35.choose places like Yeovil as their home. Top it Earlier I spoke to Neil

:10:36. > :10:38.Hamilton, who is on UKIP's national executive, and started by asking him

:10:39. > :10:47.if his party was trying to make political capital out of this.

:10:48. > :10:53.Is a contentious issue. We are not studying up fears about immigration.

:10:54. > :10:56.We know there are 29 million Romanians and Bulgarians who will

:10:57. > :11:02.get the right to come here from the 1st of January. They are not going

:11:03. > :11:09.to empty the entire country. No, but we know that these are very poor

:11:10. > :11:12.people. Of course people want to benefit their economic circumstances

:11:13. > :11:16.and that means coming to the UK first and foremost. The facts seem

:11:17. > :11:21.to be that the Eastern Europeans who have come here have contributed more

:11:22. > :11:25.than they are taking out. Of course these people tend to be hard`working

:11:26. > :11:28.and they do worthwhile jobs, but it is the scale and speed of

:11:29. > :11:33.immigration which is changing the face of England. That is something

:11:34. > :11:38.the government should control. It is happening from the 1st of January,

:11:39. > :11:42.so are you not creating a hostile atmosphere towards people they want

:11:43. > :11:49.to come here and work? We are not hostile. You are creating a hostile

:11:50. > :11:52.atmosphere. The numbers are so colossal that the social tensions

:11:53. > :11:57.that will be created will be exacerbated further by the greater

:11:58. > :12:01.numbers that are likely to come here from the 1st of January. Sticking

:12:02. > :12:06.our heads in the sand and doing nothing about it is going to cause

:12:07. > :12:10.the problems. Would it be possible for David Cameron to say, we have

:12:11. > :12:14.looked at the figures that we cannot take on more people, we will not

:12:15. > :12:18.allow this to happen? That is what the government should do but he has

:12:19. > :12:23.no intention of doing it because he thinks Britain should be a member of

:12:24. > :12:28.the EU. It is only us and you kept that would take us out of the EU.

:12:29. > :12:31.Don't forget to join me for the Sunday Politics West this week when

:12:32. > :12:34.I'll be quizzing the Conservative Euro MP Ashley Fox about what the

:12:35. > :12:40.government intend to do to control immigration. That's on BBC One this

:12:41. > :12:43.Sunday at 11am. Bristol Airport is getting special

:12:44. > :12:48.security scanners that can detect improvised explosive devices.

:12:49. > :12:51.They're more sophisticated than these ones, because they can detect

:12:52. > :12:54.non`metallic IEDs like the one used in an attack on a flight from

:12:55. > :12:59.Amsterdam to Detroit on Christmas Day in 2009. Ten UK airports have

:13:00. > :13:05.them already. Bristol is one of another 11 to get them installed.

:13:06. > :13:08.Bristol and Bath universities are to get a share of ?350 million to spend

:13:09. > :13:14.on PHD training in engineering and physical science. The government

:13:15. > :13:17.hopes the five`year investment in postgraduate studies will help drive

:13:18. > :13:25.economic growth, and put the UK at the forefront of the global science

:13:26. > :13:29.race. A boat which played a crucial role

:13:30. > :13:32.in rescuing people in World War two has been restored, and is now making

:13:33. > :13:36.its way from Gloucester to a permanent home in the capital. The

:13:37. > :13:45.Massey Shaw was used to evacuate troops from Dunkirk.

:13:46. > :13:49.It's the sound of a new chapter beginning for the Massey Shaw. This

:13:50. > :13:59.1930s fireboat has undergone a ?1 million restoration at Gloucester

:14:00. > :14:02.Docks. We have rebuilt her like for like to make a Rascals is possible

:14:03. > :14:09.to what she was when she was built but still maintaining an electrical

:14:10. > :14:14.system that is up`to`date and modern, with some discreet changes

:14:15. > :14:17.to make sure she is fit for today `` to make her as close as possible.

:14:18. > :14:20.The longest serving London fireboat on the Thames, the Massey Shaw also

:14:21. > :14:26.transported soldiers home from the beaches of Dunkirk during the Second

:14:27. > :14:30.World War. The information we have is a minimum of 500 but that can go

:14:31. > :14:36.up to 600 and that was rescued from the beaches to larger vessels, but

:14:37. > :14:39.she also brought back 110 injured troops on the vessel to the UK.

:14:40. > :14:42.Since being decommissioned in the 1970s, the Massey Shaw has had

:14:43. > :14:45.almost as an eventful life as she did during service. She was found

:14:46. > :14:48.abandoned in a London Dockyard in the 1980s and was sunk in the 1990s

:14:49. > :14:55.before a 10`year restoration campaign began to get her restored

:14:56. > :14:59.for the 60th anniversary of Dunkirk. And it's those historic links that

:15:00. > :15:08.resonate with people today. Trish Gage's father, William Way, served

:15:09. > :15:12.on the Massey Shaw during the Blitz. It looks so lovely. It has been down

:15:13. > :15:16.here since last March and I could not believe it had come to

:15:17. > :15:22.Gloucester, when I left, of all the places. I have been coming down to

:15:23. > :15:25.take photographs. `` where I live. Casting off from her Gloucester

:15:26. > :15:29.home, the Massey Shaw has a weekend of extensive tests ahead to prove

:15:30. > :15:32.she's seaworthy. Then she's off to London to open as a living museum

:15:33. > :15:43.where she'll hopefully attract a new generation of followers who discover

:15:44. > :15:48.her impressive history. She is beautiful.

:15:49. > :15:53.Now sport, and ten years ago today, England were celebrating winning the

:15:54. > :15:56.Rugby World Cup for the first time. Do you remember that? Five West

:15:57. > :16:00.Country players were involved in that final against Australia. You've

:16:01. > :16:13.been sharing some memories of that day. I was on the sofa at home with

:16:14. > :16:18.my dad cheering England. I had the shortest straw, because I

:16:19. > :16:22.was in a car on a motorway. I missed the whole thing. When Jonny

:16:23. > :16:28.Wilkinson dropped the kick over, I was beating my horn and sheeting to

:16:29. > :16:34.a load of other cars. It was a bit of a strange experience. ``

:16:35. > :16:41.cheering. Three bass players and two from Gloucester when it that of the

:16:42. > :16:47.action. `` work in the thick. Andy Robinson was England's first`team

:16:48. > :16:52.coach. They have been sharing their memories of the match, that kick,

:16:53. > :17:00.and the incredible welcome home they received on their return to England.

:17:01. > :17:04.We went in as the number one team in the world and the pressure was on us

:17:05. > :17:09.to perform. We had beaten everyone for the past three years in the

:17:10. > :17:19.southern hemisphere and under the biggest pressure you are going to

:17:20. > :17:24.face in your career. Jonny Wilkinson did not take the drop goal with his

:17:25. > :17:27.bitter fruit, he put it onto his right and I think in the days and

:17:28. > :17:34.weeks he had practised kicking with hers right, and to take that under

:17:35. > :17:44.the most intense pressure was superb. Everyone stopped still. It

:17:45. > :17:48.was almost like slow motion. I think most of the Australian team

:17:49. > :17:55.realised, what is the point in charging it down? They just stood

:17:56. > :17:59.there fixed. What people forget about is the restart and that that

:18:00. > :18:05.was Trevor Woodman, who caught the Australian restart. It was one of

:18:06. > :18:11.those things, why have they kicked it on me? Luckily I called that. I

:18:12. > :18:15.think if I had dropped it I would have been in a lot of trouble by the

:18:16. > :18:29.management and the team, but luckily I caught it. Because we were inside

:18:30. > :18:34.it got very misty. You could not see outside. We just sprinted down

:18:35. > :18:42.stairs and we could see the smiles on the faces for achieving it, it

:18:43. > :18:47.was a tremendous team effort. Have to savour those things because they

:18:48. > :18:50.move very quickly and you have to enjoy them because once she moved on

:18:51. > :18:59.to the tunnel everything is almost left behind `` once you move down.

:19:00. > :19:05.We were warned on the flight about an hour away that there was chaos at

:19:06. > :19:09.Heathrow and we could not believe it. It is a great feeling when you

:19:10. > :19:14.have the support and you realise you have touched a nation. And what it

:19:15. > :19:20.means to people. They ditched their cars on the M25 and what then. That

:19:21. > :19:25.was the only place they could park their cars. The realisation was that

:19:26. > :19:29.the country was gripped on this. Going to Trafalgar Square and seeing

:19:30. > :19:37.that amount of support, once in a lifetime. It was fantastic.

:19:38. > :19:41.Some great memories there. In domestic rugby it is a return to

:19:42. > :19:48.league action for our Premiership teams this weekend full of

:19:49. > :19:55.Gloucester travel to harlequins. `` Harlequins.

:19:56. > :20:02.Your bolt on can move off the bottom of the Championship if they beat

:20:03. > :20:06.Doncaster tonight. `` Yeovil. This game is the first of a series

:20:07. > :20:11.against other sides in the bottom half of the table. It is the first

:20:12. > :20:16.cup final of the season, I think, we have to treat it like that because

:20:17. > :20:21.there are teams around us that we have to take points off and we have

:20:22. > :20:25.to before Christmas get up off the line. We have to do it for

:20:26. > :20:32.confidence but also because we are playing all the teams around us.

:20:33. > :20:41.The standout game will be in League One, Swindon against Leyton Orient.

:20:42. > :20:46.Listowel Academy ladies team have picked up a national award today,

:20:47. > :20:52.club of the year at the women's football awards in London `` Bristol

:20:53. > :20:55.Academy. It was recognition for making it through to the FA Cup

:20:56. > :21:00.final against. I have been hearing rumours about

:21:01. > :21:04.the manager of the Academy team going on to bigger things.

:21:05. > :21:08.Possibly, all the talk about Mark Sampson and whether he is going to

:21:09. > :21:14.be the next England's women's head coach. If you think about what he

:21:15. > :21:19.has done with Bristol, getting them up to second, with probably one of

:21:20. > :21:22.the smallest budgets, he has a very good chance of getting that England

:21:23. > :21:28.job. Bristol will be sad to lose him.

:21:29. > :21:36.I will be here during the weekend bringing you the sports results.

:21:37. > :21:41.Unless you have been living on Mars, you are probably aware that Dr

:21:42. > :21:47.Who celebrates its 50th anniversary on Saturday. The occasion is being

:21:48. > :21:55.marked with a special future length episode. We are not going to reveal

:21:56. > :22:08.any spoilers, but our reporter has met one of the show's biggest fans.

:22:09. > :22:17.To call Tom a fan is an understatement. In a bedroom which

:22:18. > :22:20.is a shrine to the Time Lord, Tom has been glued to his TV screen

:22:21. > :22:33.watching every available Dr Who episode from the past 50 years. Do

:22:34. > :22:40.not be alarmed. I come from a land far away. Actually, I have just come

:22:41. > :22:49.from the BBC. Obvious question first, why? Why watch every episode?

:22:50. > :22:55.Back in 2010, I realised we were only a few years away from the

:22:56. > :22:59.anniversary season, so I thought, yes, 2013, 50th anniversary. You

:23:00. > :23:09.prepared this years in advance? Yes. This is TV viewing in the

:23:10. > :23:16.extreme. 798 episodes, 3000 hours of TV, averaging at four episode the

:23:17. > :23:23.day. Obsessed or just a fan? Obsessed fan. The cinema worker has

:23:24. > :23:31.met all of the surviving 13 doctors, Colin Baker being his

:23:32. > :23:38.favourite. He also has a wardrobe full of costumes that he has either

:23:39. > :23:48.bought or had made. Here is my favourite. Colin Baker. That is

:23:49. > :23:54.bright. Probably the best dressed man in Yeovil. He will be dressing

:23:55. > :23:58.as the doctor when he goes to work at Yeovil cinema tomorrow for a

:23:59. > :24:08.big`screen showing off a special anniversary Dr Who.

:24:09. > :24:10.That is a lot of episodes. You will be watching tomorrow?

:24:11. > :24:26.Of course. We can expect a very nice weekend.

:24:27. > :24:33.The winds beginning to ease. You can see our wind measured is slightly

:24:34. > :24:38.spinning, but left last `` less fast than it has been. If we take a look

:24:39. > :24:43.at the forecast we can see the headline is chilly weather, but

:24:44. > :24:50.great days. I pressure building and the winds easing down. The lack of

:24:51. > :25:02.bodies overnight and the clear skies mean that we will have frosty

:25:03. > :25:07.mornings `` lack of Belize. A nice bridge of high pressure which days

:25:08. > :25:12.with us on Saturday and into Sunday. That means the winds are light, the

:25:13. > :25:17.weather stays dry and it is a very workable couple of days. Hanging

:25:18. > :25:21.onto lots of cold air, we may have lost the strength of the wind but

:25:22. > :25:31.the error is go cold. Slightly milder air, but there will not be a

:25:32. > :25:36.jump in temperature. Losing the sunshine which we will be enjoying

:25:37. > :25:42.on Saturday. Lots of sunshine today, not that much cloud around. In the

:25:43. > :25:45.sunshine, it felt a little bit warmer than it has done over the

:25:46. > :25:51.last few days with the winds beginning to drop. That is what sets

:25:52. > :25:55.the tone for the next 48 hours. For the rest of this evening until

:25:56. > :26:00.eight, clear skies, not much in the way of cloud. The butcher is going

:26:01. > :26:09.very low very quickly, especially in rural areas `` temperatures.

:26:10. > :26:21.Freezing fog, which in low`lying areas will be slow to clear. Plenty

:26:22. > :26:24.of blue sky, and with just light winds, the day is very workable

:26:25. > :26:29.indeed, very good for getting out and about. Tomorrow night it is a

:26:30. > :26:36.repeat performance, clear skies, light winds, frost and freezing

:26:37. > :26:41.fog, temperatures cold taking us through into Sunday. On Sunday,

:26:42. > :26:47.plenty of sunshine but not quite as much as Saturday. Temperatures

:26:48. > :26:53.responding by the afternoon. The outlook as we progress through to

:26:54. > :26:57.next week, still dry, settled with light winds, but we lose the

:26:58. > :27:02.sunshine. The sunshine will be over the weekend.

:27:03. > :27:06.That is pretty good. What is it like now?

:27:07. > :27:20.It is called, but nice proper English weather. `` cold. A really

:27:21. > :27:30.sparkling couple of days ahead. That is where we leave you for now.

:27:31. > :27:36.I will be back on Sunday. We will say good night. Enjoy Dr Who

:27:37. > :27:42.tomorrow at 7:50pm.
