:00:29. > :00:37.Jacintha Saldanha came to Bristol in search of a better life.

:00:38. > :00:44.She had already trained as a nurse in India before she

:00:45. > :00:48.applied for a job here in 2002 which she got, and then she was

:00:49. > :00:51.joined in the city by her htsband and their child a year later.

:00:52. > :00:53.She was described by people who knew her as hard`working,

:00:54. > :00:59.But she was ambitious too and she resigned from here in 2008 `nd took

:01:00. > :01:01.a job at a prestigious, private hospital, King Edward VII Hospital,

:01:02. > :01:09.My colleague in London has more of the story.

:01:10. > :01:11.She was a meticulous night nurse who made one mistake

:01:12. > :01:14.when she thought she was talking on the telephone to the Quedn.

:01:15. > :01:17.Today, nearly 2 years after the death of nurse

:01:18. > :01:26.Jacintha Saldanha, her husb`nd and her two children came to thd Royal

:01:32. > :01:34.Also there, Mel Greig, one of the two Australian r`dio DJs

:01:35. > :01:38.She had come, she said, to honour a promise she had made to the

:01:39. > :01:42.family to attend the inquest in case of any questions she could `nswer.

:01:43. > :01:48.On the night of 3 December 2012 the Duchess of Cambridge was being

:01:49. > :01:50.treated at the King Edward VII Hospital for acute sickness

:01:51. > :01:57.In Sydney, Australia, the two radio DJs thought it would be funny to

:01:58. > :02:02.ring the hospital, pretending to be the Queen and the Prince of Wales.

:02:03. > :02:05.They did so, Nurse Saldanha was taken in by the hoax.

:02:06. > :02:09.Three days later, her body was found in the nurses' home.

:02:10. > :02:13.The inquest heard from Nurse Saldanha's husband Benedict.

:02:14. > :02:15.He read a short statement about the woman he described

:02:16. > :02:35.He was asked by the coroner if she had ever suffered

:02:36. > :02:38.psychological problems or h`d ever tried to harm herself before.

:02:39. > :02:40.Inside the hospital, they were protocols

:02:41. > :02:43.for dealing with VIP calls, but Nurse Saldanha, who was in

:02:44. > :02:46.charge of the hospital that night, put the call straight through to the

:02:47. > :02:55.That nurse told the inquest about an e`mail Nurse Saldanha had

:02:56. > :03:06.A woman's been arrested on suspicion of murder after a man died

:03:07. > :03:13.62`year`old Michael Redpath died in hospital after being rescued from

:03:14. > :03:18.Emergency crews were called to the house in Albion Street `t

:03:19. > :03:27.The 29`year`old woman is sthll in custody.

:03:28. > :03:30.The future of thousands of bank workers in the West could

:03:31. > :03:32.be affected if Scotland votds for independence next week.

:03:33. > :03:34.Both the Royal Bank of Scotland and the Bank

:03:35. > :03:37.of Scotland announced today, if that happens, they would have to

:03:38. > :03:41.So what impact would it havd on bank staff in Bristol?

:03:42. > :03:45.Here's Our business correspondent Dave Harvey.

:03:46. > :03:49.The name seems clear enough ` a Scottish bank, employing

:03:50. > :03:56.And until today, many had wondered if independence

:03:57. > :03:59.for Scotland might mean West Country jobs moving north of the border

:04:00. > :04:00.As it turns out, it's quite the opposite.

:04:01. > :04:03.Under European law, banks mtst be headquartered in the countrx where

:04:04. > :04:08.In the case of the Royal Bank of Scotland, that's England.

:04:09. > :04:10.So independence for Scotland would mean the Royal Bank

:04:11. > :04:21.At the bank's extensive headquarters outside Edinburgh this mornhng,

:04:22. > :04:27.It is, they say, just a leg`l move ` no operations or real jobs ould be

:04:28. > :04:29.moved, but the deposits of English savers

:04:30. > :04:32.would be placed under the protective wings of the Bank of England.

:04:33. > :04:38.In Bristol, I met the man who until recdntly was

:04:39. > :04:48.I think the reality is that we will see Scotland exporting employment

:04:49. > :04:51.in financial services, that probably means opportunities for

:04:52. > :04:53.Bristol and the West Countrx because employers will be looking for places

:04:54. > :05:06.Along the harbourside, around 3 00 work for the Lloyds Group, which

:05:07. > :05:14.They too announced today thdy would set up an English HQ for English

:05:15. > :05:16.bank accounts in the event of Scottish independence.

:05:17. > :05:19.For Mr Butler, this all offers opportunitids,

:05:20. > :05:29.Over the years, financial services have been part

:05:30. > :05:31.of the backbone of the Bristol and West Country economy.

:05:32. > :05:34.So it would not surprise me if Scottish banks look at Bristol

:05:35. > :05:38.as one of the options for moving employment from Ddinburgh

:05:39. > :05:41.Of course before any of this happens, there's the small latter

:05:42. > :05:55.And on that, the West Country can only w`tch

:05:56. > :05:57.The University of the West of England has been trying out

:05:58. > :06:01.Molly, as she's known, is part of a 20`year progralme

:06:02. > :06:06.by the Bristol Robotics Laboratories to help tackle the rise in patients

:06:07. > :06:10.She'll remind them to do thhngs like take their medication

:06:11. > :06:16.The robot is currently in development, but could t`ke

:06:17. > :06:21.another 15 years before pathents have them in their homes.

:06:22. > :06:24.There's more news on the BBC Website.

:06:25. > :06:33.But for now I'll leave you with Ian who has the latest forecast.
