An unexploded shell is found in a back garden.. | :00:00. | :00:08. | |
The army carry out a controlled explosion after a hundred homes | :00:09. | :00:13. | |
As soon as it gets exposed ht becomes a volatile, so you think, | :00:14. | :00:31. | |
why did it up? But we are bdtween two schools. You have to do | :00:32. | :00:32. | |
something about it. A former skipper | :00:33. | :00:38. | |
of the Matthew is sued for leaving Suspended ` the dentist who ran | :00:39. | :00:42. | |
a grubby surgery has his pr`ctise Good evening ` the Army movdd | :00:43. | :00:47. | |
into a Somerset town today and blew up an unexploded shell that | :00:48. | :01:06. | |
was buried in a back garden and The Bomb Disposal squad carried out | :01:07. | :01:09. | |
a controlled explosion in Frome after moving the device which was | :01:10. | :01:13. | |
fired by the British during the war. A hundred homes were evacuated ` but | :01:14. | :01:16. | |
residents are moving back tonight. Scott Ellis has been | :01:17. | :01:19. | |
following the day's events. We only have about 15 minutds. One | :01:20. | :01:33. | |
of about 100 homes being ev`cuated this morning, this is the one where | :01:34. | :01:36. | |
a suspected device was in the back garden. Fingers crossed it hs | :01:37. | :01:42. | |
covered on insurance! I'm t`king the notes to read this afternoon! I m | :01:43. | :01:48. | |
sure we won't need them. A lan in his 80s who used to live here | :01:49. | :01:51. | |
recalled his father burying an incendiary device in the back | :01:52. | :01:55. | |
garden. An initial survey established there was what the | :01:56. | :01:59. | |
experts were calling a ferrous anomaly. They checked it with the | :02:00. | :02:08. | |
magnet meter, which discovers ferrous items, they found 16 lumps | :02:09. | :02:12. | |
of iron, of which two schools next to the garden. The | :02:13. | :02:40. | |
idea of leaving it there because it's been there a long time, you | :02:41. | :02:45. | |
can't take that risk, can you? Within hours, the Army was called | :02:46. | :02:51. | |
in. They had found a device about a metre down, 14 inches long, four | :02:52. | :02:53. | |
inches in diameter, everybody is happy because the bomb | :02:54. | :04:01. | |
has been dealt with. Look at the pile of metal the bomb squad had to | :04:02. | :04:05. | |
deal with. They had to check all these items. As for the garden, it | :04:06. | :04:12. | |
is a blank canvas, I'm sure it will grow back, Terry and Paul are the | :04:13. | :04:17. | |
relieved homeowners. What w`s your reaction when you saw the photo Oh, | :04:18. | :04:28. | |
my days! It was dangerous. H was very laid back about it unthl I was | :04:29. | :04:34. | |
checking the posts on social media and then I thought, OK! There is a | :04:35. | :04:39. | |
bomb in the garden! What was your reaction? It was a proper bhg,! If a | :04:40. | :04:47. | |
child was going to draw a phcture of a bomb, it was like that. What a | :04:48. | :04:53. | |
great operation, it was textbook, but these things cost money, can you | :04:54. | :04:58. | |
afford this every time? This is public safety at its best, this is | :04:59. | :05:02. | |
where we can't take chances. There is no way of knowing it was here | :05:03. | :05:06. | |
before that? We don't have ` special fund for it. You know about how the | :05:07. | :05:15. | |
bomb got a? We're still working about it but the story is, ` young | :05:16. | :05:19. | |
lad found it and brought it home as a souvenir, his dad said, you are | :05:20. | :05:24. | |
not bringing that in this house and buried it. He brought it hole on the | :05:25. | :05:32. | |
back of a bicycle! You can look at the garden once again, it is safe to | :05:33. | :05:36. | |
jump up and down but as for why he buried it, it was the government | :05:37. | :05:40. | |
advice at the time after thd war, if you had a device, you buried it and | :05:41. | :05:44. | |
marketed, they would come along and deal with it, and about 70 xears on, | :05:45. | :05:51. | |
they have! The garden does look a bit bare! | :05:52. | :05:54. | |
A Cheltenham man has been sdntenced to life in prison | :05:55. | :05:57. | |
Daniel Spencer will serve a minimum of sixteen years | :05:58. | :06:00. | |
Her death is the second domestic murder case | :06:01. | :06:03. | |
The first was Hollie Gazzard, the Gloucester hairdresser killed | :06:04. | :06:06. | |
Both cases are now the subjdct of a Domestic Homicide Revidw. | :06:07. | :06:15. | |
The former skipper of the historic ship the Matthew has | :06:16. | :06:18. | |
been ordered to pay more th`n ?25,000 in damages. | :06:19. | :06:21. | |
The Matthew is based on Bristol's Harbourside and is run | :06:22. | :06:24. | |
The trust says it decided to sue after claiming the ship was returned | :06:25. | :06:30. | |
She's one of Bristol's most iconic landmarks ` built | :06:31. | :06:39. | |
in the city to commemorate 400 years since John Cabot sailed the original | :06:40. | :06:42. | |
Matthew across the Atlantic, discovering Newfoundland in 149 . | :06:43. | :06:50. | |
Much of the time since then she s been skippered by Rob Salvidge | :06:51. | :06:53. | |
Most people have only ever seen a ship like this in a film or in a | :06:54. | :07:05. | |
book or something. But now the Matthew's sailed | :07:06. | :07:06. | |
into troubled waters. The charitable trust that now owns | :07:07. | :07:09. | |
her has sued Mr Salvidge's company for damages ` they say | :07:10. | :07:12. | |
when he quit as captain, he left It wouldn't have passed the Maritime | :07:13. | :07:26. | |
and coastguard agency's anntal survey, and license, so we had to | :07:27. | :07:31. | |
take action because of the state of the ship. It should have bedn | :07:32. | :07:36. | |
returned in a condition that it was in at the start of the leasd, | :07:37. | :07:41. | |
subject to fair wear and te`r but it was not. | :07:42. | :07:44. | |
The county court awarded the trust ?25,000 in damages ` | :07:45. | :07:46. | |
to cover the cost of repairs they say they had to carry out to get | :07:47. | :07:50. | |
Rob Salvidge, though, says he was never contracted to carry ott | :07:51. | :07:56. | |
maintenance and repairs, and will be appealing that court judgement. | :07:57. | :07:58. | |
The trust says as a charity it has to try to recover the money so | :07:59. | :08:02. | |
people can continue to enjox this beautiful ship ` and that a debt | :08:03. | :08:05. | |
It?s great to have you with us for Wednesday's Points West on this | :08:06. | :08:18. | |
sunny evening. Do stay with us as there's plenty more to bring you | :08:19. | :08:22. | |
tonight including ` we uncover the story of the Gloucester Rugby | :08:23. | :08:25. | |
players who gave up the chance of sporting glory ` to serve their | :08:26. | :08:28. | |
A dental surgery in North Somerset has been forced to close for failing | :08:29. | :08:42. | |
Inspectors from the Care Quality Commission found | :08:43. | :08:45. | |
patients at Woodborough Dental Practice in Winscombe were | :08:46. | :08:48. | |
Here's our Health Correspondent Matthew Hill. | :08:49. | :08:58. | |
The doors are locked. No ond will be treated at the surgery until at | :08:59. | :09:05. | |
least next month. The CQC took the unusual step of closing the practice | :09:06. | :09:10. | |
after an inspection in July found it was failing to meet all sevdn | :09:11. | :09:14. | |
standards, so patients are having to find treatment elsewhere. It would | :09:15. | :09:19. | |
concern me but I had no ide` and have always found them to bd clean | :09:20. | :09:23. | |
and good. I have bad operathons on my mouth, it's always been fine | :09:24. | :09:29. | |
never had a problem. For thdse patients didn't know is that their | :09:30. | :09:32. | |
records are not being kept tnder lock and key. Instead they were in | :09:33. | :09:37. | |
open filing cabinets in waiting areas and there were huge g`ps in | :09:38. | :09:41. | |
the medical histories of sole patients, in one case, more than a | :09:42. | :09:45. | |
decade. One local dentist f`iled to find out what medication and elderly | :09:46. | :09:49. | |
woman was taken before giving her an anaesthetic. She then collapsed on | :09:50. | :09:56. | |
the floor and he try to set up three times but she collapsed each time. | :09:57. | :10:02. | |
He eventually called an ambtlance. The most serious failure was over | :10:03. | :10:05. | |
the risk of infection from blood`borne disease like hep C. This | :10:06. | :10:09. | |
is how dirty equipment should be sterilised before reuse. After the | :10:10. | :10:13. | |
initial clean, equipment must be closely inspected, and sealdd from | :10:14. | :10:21. | |
contact with air. But the CPC say that lit magnifying glasses were not | :10:22. | :10:26. | |
being used to inspect equiplent and once this was clean and sterile it | :10:27. | :10:30. | |
was being left in the open `ir for several days at a time. There are | :10:31. | :10:37. | |
three dozen patients registdred with this practice, we have written to | :10:38. | :10:41. | |
them because our concern is the ingenuity of care for those | :10:42. | :10:44. | |
individuals. The letter explains how they can access other practhces | :10:45. | :10:52. | |
locally. We have so far been able to get mad unable to convert anyone | :10:53. | :10:55. | |
from the surgery. The findings have been referred to the General dental | :10:56. | :11:00. | |
Council, which has suspended one of the partners, Doctor Nigel Smith. | :11:01. | :11:08. | |
The Deputy Prime Minister Nhck Clegg was continuing his tour of the West | :11:09. | :11:12. | |
Country today, talking about free school meals for the under sevens in | :11:13. | :11:18. | |
Somerset. He started the dax at the Olive tree nursery in Bridgwater | :11:19. | :11:21. | |
before going onto the residdntial in Taunton which teaches cookery | :11:22. | :11:27. | |
schools to young people. Thd Coalition Government claims the | :11:28. | :11:30. | |
policy will save families around ?400 a year. | :11:31. | :11:33. | |
Some sad news now ` and a dolphin, spotted in the River Severn near | :11:34. | :11:36. | |
It was filmed by local people a fortnight ago near Stonebdnch | :11:37. | :11:40. | |
Conservationists said it was unusual for the mammal to be seen | :11:41. | :11:43. | |
in the river and had hoped ht would swim out to sea. | :11:44. | :11:46. | |
The bottle nosed dolphin filmed on a mobile phone appeared `ctive | :11:47. | :11:54. | |
Although it was a long way from its usual habitat, thought to be off | :11:55. | :12:02. | |
the coast of Wales, many hoped it would find its way back out to sea. | :12:03. | :12:09. | |
It's all by sonar, it more or less knows where it is, it knows it's in | :12:10. | :12:15. | |
a tight confines because of the sonar, it can tell it has b`nks | :12:16. | :12:22. | |
It's not an issue. Sadly, it didn't make it out of the river, it's one | :12:23. | :12:28. | |
of 600 strandings that happdn every year around the UK. A pathology | :12:29. | :12:32. | |
technician will come tomorrow and take samples of its blubber to see | :12:33. | :12:36. | |
if there are any toxins and try and find some answers as to what | :12:37. | :12:40. | |
happened. These samples will give us a huge amount of information about | :12:41. | :12:45. | |
the health of these dolphins, the pollution, toxins and potentially | :12:46. | :12:50. | |
the effects humans are having on Wales, dolphins and porpoisds in the | :12:51. | :12:51. | |
UK. So should humans intervene when | :12:52. | :12:53. | |
a dolphin or whale is stranded? Nine times out of ten, the `nimals | :12:54. | :13:02. | |
that come close to shore, that are in habitats they are not usdd to, | :13:03. | :13:05. | |
are already compromised in their health, already potentially sick and | :13:06. | :13:09. | |
are looking for somewhere to potentially die. | :13:10. | :13:13. | |
There may have only been ond outcome for the ill fated dolphin. | :13:14. | :13:17. | |
It will be removed from the river bank tomorrow. | :13:18. | :13:24. | |
The latest now in our World War One at home series. | :13:25. | :13:26. | |
When Britain declared war on Germany in August 1914, | :13:27. | :13:28. | |
thousands of young men joindd up to fight for their country. | :13:29. | :13:31. | |
Even the sporting stars of the early twentieth centtry were | :13:32. | :13:33. | |
used to help recruit soldiers to fight in the front line. | :13:34. | :13:36. | |
Many of those players also lost their own lives in the conflict | :13:37. | :13:39. | |
In Gloucester the entire first team from Kingsholm enlisted. | :13:40. | :13:41. | |
Sabet Choudhury has been finding out more. | :13:42. | :13:51. | |
They were heroes in the makhng. Bright eyed, full of hope and ready | :13:52. | :13:57. | |
to take up arms for King and country. Men from all walks put | :13:58. | :14:02. | |
their life on the line in the name of freedom. Even the rugby stars of | :14:03. | :14:12. | |
the day answered the call to fight. They were held up as symbols of what | :14:13. | :14:16. | |
written should be doing, dohng the right thing. `` written shotld be | :14:17. | :14:21. | |
doing. When you see your heroes doing that, you think I will do that | :14:22. | :14:27. | |
as well. From the field of play to the theatre of battle, the Kingsholm | :14:28. | :14:31. | |
men left their beloved Gloucester to fight in foreign lands. Little did | :14:32. | :14:39. | |
they know, most would never return. Harry Berry is probably the most | :14:40. | :14:44. | |
famous of the players who got killed in the great War, he would've been | :14:45. | :14:47. | |
one of the celebrities who would have been looking to emulatd. He was | :14:48. | :14:54. | |
a reservist and was called tp in 1914. He was killed in 1915. The | :14:55. | :15:03. | |
attacking British were mown down by German machine guns. My grandfather | :15:04. | :15:10. | |
in 1909 was picked to play for Gloucester, must've been like | :15:11. | :15:14. | |
winning the lottery, it's all anyone to do, even in my childhood. | :15:15. | :15:20. | |
Unbelievable. John Price loved to play rugby for faster but lhke the | :15:21. | :15:25. | |
rest of his team`mates, he dutifully answered the call. But therd was a | :15:26. | :15:35. | |
problem. He signed up with dveryone else and on the day they went, 00 | :15:36. | :15:42. | |
men marched off to the barr`cks the mayor arrives and says, I'm awfully | :15:43. | :15:52. | |
sorry, but you are going here. He said, I have given my word to the | :15:53. | :15:56. | |
king so I will go wherever he sends me. Not happy. Most is a wonderful | :15:57. | :16:04. | |
regiment, but they weren't the Gloucester, where all his friends | :16:05. | :16:08. | |
were. It was against the whole ethos of the Powells Italians. Kitchener | :16:09. | :16:14. | |
said, join up with your fridnds and fight with them, he ended up | :16:15. | :16:19. | |
fighting with people from the Black Country who we couldn't spe`k to. | :16:20. | :16:25. | |
His wife was told of his de`th by friends on the front line who took a | :16:26. | :16:32. | |
final oath. They said, this, missing, believed killed, is | :16:33. | :16:39. | |
torture. If we see anyone, we will write and say, he is dead. That | :16:40. | :16:42. | |
letter arrived before the tdlegram from the King. The Great War took | :16:43. | :16:49. | |
away many promising sporting careers. Many never set foot on | :16:50. | :16:56. | |
Kingsholm again. You have bden out on the pitch. That is the alount of | :16:57. | :17:02. | |
ground that 11,000 men gave their lives for. The length of a rugby | :17:03. | :17:11. | |
pitch. All those men. Gone, but the length of a football pitch. John | :17:12. | :17:16. | |
Price and the rest of those players still live on here at Kingsholm | :17:17. | :17:23. | |
Their memories, for ever carved on these walls, a sacrifice whhch | :17:24. | :17:32. | |
should not be forgotten. Thdre is a big World War I tour coming. | :17:33. | :17:36. | |
And there's a big BBC World War One tour coming to the balloon fiesta | :17:37. | :17:40. | |
It's free and runs during the day from Friday through to Sund`y. | :17:41. | :17:44. | |
I'll be there on Saturday afternoon when I'll be talking to Katd Adie. | :17:45. | :17:47. | |
To present day sport ` and it's been a summer of change on | :17:48. | :17:50. | |
Work has started on the redevelopment of thehr | :17:51. | :17:54. | |
ground, and the manager has brought in half a dozen new players. | :17:55. | :17:57. | |
Here's Ali Durden to tell us more about their chances this se`son | :17:58. | :18:08. | |
There is plenty of expectathon on Bristol City, and promotion is a | :18:09. | :18:15. | |
realistic target. Manager Steve Cotterill start is first full season | :18:16. | :18:18. | |
in charge having transformed the team from relegation strugglers to | :18:19. | :18:25. | |
12th place finish. They kept top scorer Sam Baldock so far and | :18:26. | :18:29. | |
brought in six new players, including Luke Freeman. The bookies | :18:30. | :18:37. | |
are putting city as third f`vourites for promotion. In addition, the | :18:38. | :18:43. | |
transformation of Ashton gate is underway. It is heard roars of | :18:44. | :18:51. | |
encouragement, shouts of frtstration and witnessed many tears behng | :18:52. | :18:56. | |
shared but now the east end stand is coming down. It survived thd Blitz | :18:57. | :19:01. | |
but can't survive the march of a football club wanting a stadium fit | :19:02. | :19:07. | |
for the 21st century. Helen the largest round the corner and has | :19:08. | :19:10. | |
watched this on fold from the upstairs of her house. Amazhng to | :19:11. | :19:15. | |
see how quickly they took down the stand which I used to sitting, quite | :19:16. | :19:19. | |
sad but exciting to see the beginning. They will be two new | :19:20. | :19:27. | |
stands, and increased capachty of 27,000. The old pitch is gone. Now | :19:28. | :19:33. | |
there is a new kid on the block with the price tag of ?1.3 million. It's | :19:34. | :19:39. | |
a proven pitch, and mix of ` small amount of plastic that goes into | :19:40. | :19:43. | |
below the ground which allows the pitch to stand the test of time | :19:44. | :19:49. | |
Wembley used it successfullx, Swansea use it. We want to compete | :19:50. | :19:52. | |
on a rugby and football point of view. And half a dozen new players. | :19:53. | :19:58. | |
So this season, will there be raised expectations? Because of thd way we | :19:59. | :20:05. | |
finished, definitely. Because of the size of the club we are, people will | :20:06. | :20:08. | |
be looking to be at the top end of the table. When you look at the | :20:09. | :20:15. | |
quality of the players brought in, no one can | :20:16. | :21:45. | |
Barely able to breathe in c`se the whole thing goes Ping! You have done | :21:46. | :21:49. | |
a couple of fixes on the wax. We did have to get changed in the car. It | :21:50. | :21:55. | |
isn't going to be a traditional zip, how do you get into it? Over the | :21:56. | :22:02. | |
head. One arm up each side. It was funny in the car! Why did you do | :22:03. | :22:10. | |
this? We have a bit of a latgh working in the market in Trowbridge, | :22:11. | :22:14. | |
the boys challenge to me to make things, we saw the one on eBay and | :22:15. | :22:22. | |
they said, that you can't do that! So I went away, had a bit of a chat | :22:23. | :22:29. | |
and thought, yeah, I would only do it if there was no stitching. I | :22:30. | :22:35. | |
didn't want any sewing in there I wanted it to be one clip, which | :22:36. | :22:44. | |
relate. She is saying her prayers. And you are a dressmaker? I'm | :22:45. | :22:52. | |
actually a cleaner! I thought you were professional. How many packets | :22:53. | :22:58. | |
did it take? We reckon about ?50,000. What will you do whth it? | :22:59. | :23:09. | |
The boys use it for promotion. I think it will come sooner or later! | :23:10. | :23:14. | |
You could probably even awash with it on! You want to stand up? Would | :23:15. | :23:26. | |
you ever wear this? I can't say that on telly, maybe somewhere! Xou have | :23:27. | :23:34. | |
accessorised it, you look lhke it might be up for wearing somdthing | :23:35. | :23:38. | |
less run`of`the`mill. It's different, yeah, I don't mind | :23:39. | :23:41. | |
putting it on. I would I wotld go out with it, not without taking her | :23:42. | :23:48. | |
with me. Would you be able to wear it to work? It could be good for my | :23:49. | :24:01. | |
job, I work in a tattooists. She is afraid to breathe! I have something | :24:02. | :24:09. | |
else which I was asked to whip up. That is for you. That's verx sweet | :24:10. | :24:17. | |
of you. That's definitely going in my wardrobe! Thank you very much | :24:18. | :24:26. | |
indeed coming in and for modelling. I am really thrilled. Now, time for | :24:27. | :24:36. | |
the weather. Later people wdnt to work thinking they had to t`ke their | :24:37. | :24:37. | |
jumpers today. It is all turned out pretty much as | :24:38. | :24:46. | |
planned, one or two showers around, parts of Gloucestershire at the | :24:47. | :24:53. | |
moment. For tomorrow, there will be some nice views at the Bristol | :24:54. | :25:00. | |
balloon Fiesta, it will be ` fine summers day. The chance of ` nice | :25:01. | :25:05. | |
little shower but most placds will avoid those. `` isolated shower | :25:06. | :25:15. | |
Liftoff is at six p.m., we dxpect things to shape up like this. The | :25:16. | :25:21. | |
surface winds tomorrow could take some more towards the North`East, so | :25:22. | :25:27. | |
somewhere between Bedminster and Winford is the likely avenud we will | :25:28. | :25:36. | |
see the balloons. Despite a few showers, pressure is rigid hn over | :25:37. | :25:45. | |
the next 24 hours, a load nhcely if you are looking for some settled, | :25:46. | :25:54. | |
dry conditions. The rest of this evening, a few showers around, a few | :25:55. | :26:01. | |
more through parts of Dorset, all of them fading away, leaving us into a | :26:02. | :26:09. | |
dry night. Temperatures for the most part, 14 or 15 Celsius. Tomorrow, | :26:10. | :26:14. | |
starting with a good deal of sunshine around. Just that chance | :26:15. | :26:23. | |
that we might have an isolated shower but it's a small | :26:24. | :26:28. | |
possibility. It should be a decent evening. Temperatures tomorrow, | :26:29. | :26:43. | |
safely into the low 20s. Looking beyond that, by Friday evenhng, the | :26:44. | :26:48. | |
threat of some heavy showers and thunderstorms, Sunday is thd next | :26:49. | :26:49. | |
point of attention. I think this has been hugelx | :26:50. | :27:06. | |
successful! It looks more lhke Acrobat. Don't copy at home, don't | :27:07. | :27:08. | |
think you could pull it off like me. | :27:09. | :27:12. |
