:00:00. > :00:00.power cuts to thousands of homes. Now we can join the news

:00:00. > :00:08.Welcome to Wales Today. Our top story. Welsh scientists lead a

:00:09. > :00:10.breakthrough in understanding what causes Alzheimer's disease in the

:00:11. > :00:23.largest ever analysis of patients' DNA. The reason we work -- look for

:00:24. > :00:27.genes is that they will pinpoint the mechanisms, the biological

:00:28. > :00:31.components of the disease that are going wrong.

:00:32. > :00:32.Unlocking memories, how this room is helping patients with dementia

:00:33. > :00:53.remember their past. Our other headlines.

:00:54. > :00:57.The big clean up after last night's flooding, but most of us got off

:00:58. > :01:02.relatively lightly. Ann Clwyd, the MP for the Cynon

:01:03. > :01:06.Valley. Her report into the NHS says delay and denial over complaints

:01:07. > :01:09.must come to an end. Reunited with their rescuers, the

:01:10. > :01:19.people picked up by Moelfre lifeboat come back to say thank you for

:01:20. > :01:27.saving our lives. It is only when you need them that you actually

:01:28. > :01:29.think how good and professional and how good a charity it is.

:01:30. > :01:34.Good evening. It's been described as a major breakthrough in the

:01:35. > :01:37.understanding of Alzheimer's and could pave the way for new

:01:38. > :01:41.treatments. Scientists from Wales have helped identify eleven extra

:01:42. > :01:43.genes that are linked to the condition and have confirmed there

:01:44. > :01:50.is a connection to the immune system. The worldwide research was

:01:51. > :02:00.jointly led by a team at Cardiff University. Our health correspondent

:02:01. > :02:05.Owain Clarke has the story. Around 50,000 people in Wales have dementia

:02:06. > :02:10.and most cases are caused and Alzheimer's. The illness causes the

:02:11. > :02:15.brain to deteriorate. It did the thousands of deaths each year. The

:02:16. > :02:18.breakthrough came as a result of hundreds of geneticist across the

:02:19. > :02:24.globe working together. It confirms the involvement of the immune

:02:25. > :02:30.system. That knowledge can lead to new treatment. We are seeing strong

:02:31. > :02:37.patterns within these genes. A number of them are implicating the

:02:38. > :02:42.immune system. Our imminent response is a causal factor. I really wish

:02:43. > :02:47.the molecular biologists would get together around the world by the

:02:48. > :02:52.geneticists have done and pool their resources as that is the only way we

:02:53. > :02:58.will get to the answer is and new treatments quickly. An international

:02:59. > :03:03.team led by scientists here at Cardiff University worked for two

:03:04. > :03:09.years analysing genetic variations in almost 75,000 people from across

:03:10. > :03:13.Europe and the United States. They compare the genetic make-up of

:03:14. > :03:17.people with Alzheimer's with similar individuals not affected.

:03:18. > :03:27.Previously, scientists have known ten genes. This research discovered

:03:28. > :03:33.11 more dreams which can make people -- genes which can make people

:03:34. > :03:37.susceptible. It is a feather in everyone's cup who has been involved

:03:38. > :03:41.in this work was it involves a lot of people and a lot of significant

:03:42. > :03:45.effort and particularly we have been very lucky to get support from

:03:46. > :03:54.patients and sufferers with the condition who have allowed

:03:55. > :04:00.researchers in to their homes. It is hoped the findings can help doctors

:04:01. > :04:07.identify people who are at risk of developing the disease. Eventually,

:04:08. > :04:10.worldwide, millions of people could benefit from this research.

:04:11. > :04:13.Scientists raced here are leading the way.

:04:14. > :04:16.Dr James Picket is head of research from the Alzheimer's Society he's in

:04:17. > :04:19.our London studio. Dr Picket, this discovery of these additional genes

:04:20. > :04:25.has been hailed as a breakthrough, but what does it mean in real terms

:04:26. > :04:32.for sufferers of the disease now? Good evening. We cannot get too

:04:33. > :04:37.carried away that this has immediate unfit for people who living with

:04:38. > :04:42.dementia today. But it gives us a lot of hope that in the future we

:04:43. > :04:44.can make further significant progress to demystify the brain

:04:45. > :04:49.processes that go on giving the disease. From that, we will have

:04:50. > :04:51.further understanding of the disease and potentially further new options

:04:52. > :04:54.as well. There's a strong link to the immune

:04:55. > :05:04.system, so is this where scientists focus their efforts on now? Exactly

:05:05. > :05:06.that. But we have got today is 11 genes and that opens up 11 new

:05:07. > :05:13.possibilities of identifying new mechanisms to understand how they

:05:14. > :05:17.are involved in the disease. This confirms what we have suspected for

:05:18. > :05:20.a while. It leads to new images which we are not working in India --

:05:21. > :05:23.at the moment. This effort was an international

:05:24. > :05:26.one, lead by the scientists in Cardiff, they are now calling for

:05:27. > :05:34.other specialists to work together. Is this collaborative research the

:05:35. > :05:37.way forward? Absolutely. But we have seen today is the worlds largest

:05:38. > :05:42.ever study of genetics which has been co-ordinated by Cardiff. It

:05:43. > :05:46.involved over 150 different laboratories and many hundreds of

:05:47. > :05:49.scientists around the world. But we have seen is clear evidence that if

:05:50. > :05:56.we come together to tackle this problem globally then we can

:05:57. > :05:59.actually make significant progress. We would now like to see other

:06:00. > :06:08.sectors of the trinity get-together in a collaborative way to understand

:06:09. > :06:11.what role these genes play. Realistically, what kind of time

:06:12. > :06:22.scale are we looking at before we can prevent and cure this

:06:23. > :06:26.debilitating disease? I think that is a very difficult question for us

:06:27. > :06:29.to say with any certainty. But we are seeing now is a real momentum

:06:30. > :06:33.building. We are seeing proper investment going in to dementia

:06:34. > :06:38.research. We are beginning to see the results of that. We need

:06:39. > :06:41.prolonged investments that we can capitalise on these findings.

:06:42. > :06:45.Later we'll be reporting on how one NHS trust in Wales has developed a

:06:46. > :06:46.novel way of trying to help dementia patients regain their long term

:06:47. > :06:55.memories. We were warned about it for days but

:06:56. > :06:58.Wales escaped the worst of the great storm. While powerful winds caused

:06:59. > :07:00.widespread damage in southern England, flooding was the main

:07:01. > :07:06.problem here cancelling train services and closing roads. Tonight,

:07:07. > :07:17.river levels remain high and people are being warned to stay away from

:07:18. > :07:25.river banks. It is mugged, that is the problem here in Tintern. Lots of

:07:26. > :07:28.it. Bar staff have been up since the early hours housing, scrubbing and

:07:29. > :07:37.sweeping to avoid losing valuable trade. It was much deeper in the

:07:38. > :07:41.restaurant. The tables and menus were floating around. It is not just

:07:42. > :07:49.the water, it is the mode as well. We have a hosepipe inside. The

:07:50. > :07:53.damage is not that searchers. They are hoping to open this evening. It

:07:54. > :07:59.seems the rest of Wales got off lightly as well. There was localised

:08:00. > :08:04.flooding on some drugs dealing rush hour. In the Vale of Glamorgan they

:08:05. > :08:09.worked to clear roads with police saying some had abandoned the cars

:08:10. > :08:16.pulled up the second Severn Crossing was real and for the rush-hour

:08:17. > :08:19.traffic at six o'clock this morning. People are still on alert for

:08:20. > :08:22.flooding from rivers for top officials are monitoring river

:08:23. > :08:29.levels closely and checking for flood defences. We advise people not

:08:30. > :08:34.to go through -- near the livers because the banks are slippy.

:08:35. > :08:38.There's a lot of standing water on the roads. Leeds have come off the

:08:39. > :08:43.trees and into the galleys. That means rainwater is not training away

:08:44. > :08:47.as fast as we would like. Many local authorities were on high alert over

:08:48. > :08:52.the weekend, preparing for the worst. Sandbags were filled and

:08:53. > :08:57.trains were cleared. It cleared up goes on for some but tonight, many

:08:58. > :08:59.say they are relieved they escaped the worst of the weather.

:09:00. > :09:07.Let's have a word with Derek Brockway. It wasn't as bad for Wales

:09:08. > :09:10.as expected. We knew there was a storm coming. There was also

:09:11. > :09:16.uncertainty about the intensity and exact track it would take. The

:09:17. > :09:22.forecast was spot on the southern England but less so for Wales. No

:09:23. > :09:25.forecast is set in stone for top forecasts are much more accurate

:09:26. > :09:28.than do is to be but things can change at the last minute and that

:09:29. > :09:32.is exactly what happened. A small change in the position of the centre

:09:33. > :09:36.of the low can make all the difference. We have some great

:09:37. > :09:40.satellite pictures from the Met office. These show the storm clouds

:09:41. > :09:45.moving in from the Atlantic towards Britain. The storm the world by cold

:09:46. > :09:56.air and warm a mixing in the atmosphere. The pressure chart tells

:09:57. > :10:01.a story quite nicely. We have low-pressure moving north-east roads

:10:02. > :10:05.and deepening foot of the eye of the storm passed over Wales for a time.

:10:06. > :10:14.The wind dropped and a scam for a time. Guests of up to 80 miles an

:10:15. > :10:21.hour over eastern England. There was a risk of gales for part of South

:10:22. > :10:28.Wales but we escaped those. It was a near miss. It was only about 50

:10:29. > :10:32.miles away towards the Bristol area and Wiltshire. It was a near miss,

:10:33. > :10:37.we were lucky, it could have been a lot worse. We will have a full

:10:38. > :10:40.weather forecast later. There are thousands of houses across

:10:41. > :10:43.Wales that are used as second homes, often only occupied during the

:10:44. > :10:47.holidays. Owners say they contribute to the local economy and encourage

:10:48. > :10:50.tourism. But critics say they damage communities and push locals out of

:10:51. > :10:53.the housing market. A consultation has been underway looking at whether

:10:54. > :11:02.second home owners should pay more council tax.

:11:03. > :11:22.You can see I'm so many want to come here. This is Anglesey, a hotspot

:11:23. > :11:30.for second homes. Here, the figure is even greater than the figure for

:11:31. > :11:36.the whole of Britain. Phil Johnson from Cheshire bought his place seven

:11:37. > :11:44.years ago. Second home owners have an important place in the economy,

:11:45. > :11:47.he says. He Welsh Assembly are trying to encourage tourism and a

:11:48. > :11:53.big part of that is people who come here on weekends and bank holidays

:11:54. > :12:00.and school holidays and bring in money that is spent in local shops,

:12:01. > :12:04.bars and restaurants. That is a big part of the economy. Take that away

:12:05. > :12:10.and it will have a big effect on employment. But critics argue a hope

:12:11. > :12:15.proportion of second homes can have a negative effect. House prices up.

:12:16. > :12:24.Putting homes beyond the place of locals. Shops are also left without

:12:25. > :12:29.customers for many -- long part of the year. Income while they went

:12:30. > :12:35.tanning powers to limit the number of second homes was up an idea that

:12:36. > :12:38.is being looked at in ways that it has been rejected by the Welsh

:12:39. > :12:49.Government as impractical. It is a contentious issue and also has added

:12:50. > :13:03.problems involving language and culture. It has been suggested that

:13:04. > :13:12.second home owners should be charged extra in their council taxes. Some

:13:13. > :13:17.have more than one second home. It is to do with redistribution of

:13:18. > :13:23.wealth. Those with the ability to pay can assist those who are

:13:24. > :13:28.struggling in the housing market. That is crazy. That would upset the

:13:29. > :13:34.balance as it is at the moment. People would think twice about

:13:35. > :13:39.having second homes. Those supporting a rise in council tax for

:13:40. > :13:43.second homes say it could help to pay for affordable homes for locals.

:13:44. > :13:47.Second home owners say they would feel penalised. It is a delicate

:13:48. > :13:50.balance to be struck. Much more to come before seven

:13:51. > :13:54.o'clock. Reunited with their rescuers, the people picked up by

:13:55. > :14:02.Moelfre lifeboat come back to say thank you for saving our lives.

:14:03. > :14:08.A review led by a Welsh MP has called for a revolution in the way

:14:09. > :14:11.the NHS handles complaints. Ann Clwyd, who has claimed her late

:14:12. > :14:15.husband was treated like a battery hen at a Cardiff hospital, says he

:14:16. > :14:20.would still be alive today if her recommendations had been implemented

:14:21. > :14:25.in Wales. Our parliamentary correspondent David Cornock is at

:14:26. > :14:35.Westminster. David, what does the review say? Ann Clwyd was to make it

:14:36. > :14:39.easier for patients and their families to make complaints and make

:14:40. > :14:44.it harder for hospital managers to ignore those complaints. There would

:14:45. > :14:48.be practical things such as a notepad and pen at your bedside in a

:14:49. > :14:53.hospital so that you can raise concerns and hospital managers would

:14:54. > :14:58.be responsible for sub senior managers would have to respond to

:14:59. > :15:01.every complaint and they would -- there would have to be an annual

:15:02. > :15:08.report setting out the complaints for a hospital and what had been

:15:09. > :15:12.done about them? This report has been commissioned by the Health

:15:13. > :15:17.Secretary in England but it has been inspired by -- by what happened to

:15:18. > :15:24.Ann Clwyd and her late husband. He died one year ago. She says he was

:15:25. > :15:27.treated like a battery hen. I asked her the day what difference she

:15:28. > :15:39.thought the changes she was proposing would make the Mac? I

:15:40. > :15:43.think my husband would still be alive if these changes had been

:15:44. > :15:50.implemented for. The kinds of letters I have had from people

:15:51. > :15:58.detail similar experiences. It is just not right that patient who are

:15:59. > :16:05.at their most vulnerable as individuals, their concerns can be

:16:06. > :16:12.brushed aside and dismissed as though they were not important. The

:16:13. > :16:20.Cardiff and Vale University Health Board has previously apologised for

:16:21. > :16:25.failings in care. Today, it says it fears the report within just suggest

:16:26. > :16:29.Ann Clwyd publish the full report and so fat she has not done that.

:16:30. > :16:33.She has chosen not to do so. They have board says it would be pleased

:16:34. > :16:37.if she would publish the full report into the circumstances surrounding

:16:38. > :16:44.her husband 's death. What are the chances of the proposals being

:16:45. > :16:48.implemented in Wales? The health minister has welcomed the report. He

:16:49. > :16:51.says he has been talking to Ann Clwyd and they are in agreement in

:16:52. > :16:54.terms of the need for improvement for that she will meet the first

:16:55. > :16:58.Minister next week and they will have plenty to talk about.

:16:59. > :17:01.More than 60 jobs are being created at the Village Bakery on Wrexham

:17:02. > :17:04.Industrial Estate. The ?1.8-million expansion has been supported by a

:17:05. > :17:09.grant from the Welsh Government of more than half a million pounds. The

:17:10. > :17:13.investment will allow the business to buy new equipment and introduce

:17:14. > :17:16.new products. House prices are continuing to slide

:17:17. > :17:19.in Wales while they are rising everywhere in the UK. Figures from

:17:20. > :17:23.the Land Registry show the average price of a house in Wales fell more

:17:24. > :17:28.than one percent, while across the whole of England and Wales they went

:17:29. > :17:33.up 3.4%. The steepest falls were in Merthyr Tydfil where average prices

:17:34. > :17:35.dropped by more than 4%. The First Minister has launched

:17:36. > :17:39.Wales' commemoration plans which will mark the centenary of the

:17:40. > :17:42.outbreak of World War One. Speaking at the Museum of the Welsh Soldier

:17:43. > :17:45.at Cardiff Castle, Carwyn Jones announced that every secondary

:17:46. > :17:52.school in Wales will receive one thousand pounds to develop their own

:17:53. > :17:54.remembrance projects. Earlier, we told you about

:17:55. > :17:59.breakthrough research into treatment for Alzheimer's led by Cardiff

:18:00. > :18:02.University. Well, one NHS Trust in Wales is using nostalgic props like

:18:03. > :18:08.lava lamps and coronation mugs to unlock the long term memories of

:18:09. > :18:10.dementia patients. Special reminiscence areas are being used in

:18:11. > :18:12.two hospitals near Cardiff where wards have been turned into time

:18:13. > :18:21.capsules. Flying ducks, bakelite radios,

:18:22. > :18:25.formica tables, common place in most homes during the 1950s but not what

:18:26. > :18:32.you'd expect to see in a modern hospital. This post war living room

:18:33. > :18:36.is in the dementia unit at Barry hospital. Across town, at a similar

:18:37. > :18:42.unit in Llandough, there's a 1970s feel where it's all lava lamps and

:18:43. > :18:45.Look-In magazines. These reminscence areas are being used to transport

:18:46. > :18:50.patients like Brian and Anne back to happier times. They both have early

:18:51. > :19:05.onset dementia but they find this environment familiar and calming. It

:19:06. > :19:11.is nice. Some things take you back to remember. It means you of nice

:19:12. > :19:14.times we used to have. We have loads of those. Hospitals can be

:19:15. > :19:17.unsettling environments for patients with Alzheimer's. But doctors here

:19:18. > :19:27.have found that these nostalgic spaces can help with their

:19:28. > :19:30.treatment. It means we are engaging with clients about long-term

:19:31. > :19:34.memories. That can be therapeutic and rewarding if you're short term

:19:35. > :19:40.memory is not as good as it is to be full stop that is research that this

:19:41. > :19:42.can be as effective as medication. Cardiff and Vale University Health

:19:43. > :19:46.Board currently uses three remeniscence areas in its hospitals.

:19:47. > :19:49.This one looks like a 1950s cinema. They're the brainchild of inventor

:19:50. > :19:52.Richard Ernest, who earlier this year braved the Dragon's Den and

:19:53. > :19:56.secured a ?100,000-investment in his idea. He calls these pop up

:19:57. > :19:59.nostalgia zones "rempods" and inspiration came from an elderly

:20:00. > :20:04.neighbour whose wife had Alzheimer's disease. He makes all the rempods at

:20:05. > :20:11.his offices in Gloucestershire, where he told me about his latest

:20:12. > :20:19.designs. I have just done a new chain guard and it is a vintage idea

:20:20. > :20:25.where people can make. It is to be their passion. The stories around

:20:26. > :20:29.the old kitchen table. I wanted to recreate that the world. More than

:20:30. > :20:32.60 NHS trusts across the UK have installed Rempods in their hospitals

:20:33. > :20:36.and day care units. In Wales, Cardiff and Vale is the only health

:20:37. > :20:39.board to have bought in to the idea, although they are being used in

:20:40. > :20:43.private care homes. The memorabilia may be vintage but the need to find

:20:44. > :20:46.new ways of helping the growing number of dementia patients in Wales

:20:47. > :20:48.couldn't be more current. Rugby, cricket and football now

:20:49. > :20:51.here's Ashleigh. Lots of people having their say

:20:52. > :20:59.about Wales scrum-half Mike Phillips today. He has said he will issue

:21:00. > :21:02.legal proceedings against his club. He's been sacked by his club,

:21:03. > :21:09.Bayonne, for turning up drunk to a team meeting. He said he was

:21:10. > :21:17.extremely frustrated and disappointed by the decision was up

:21:18. > :21:22.he said he heard about his dismissal through a French interview on

:21:23. > :21:24.television this morning. The Basque club's chairman in the French press

:21:25. > :21:34.saying Phillips' actions were inexcusable and treason. He says he

:21:35. > :21:42.will continue to concentrate and put all his efforts for the Wales team.

:21:43. > :21:44.But his former coach at the Ospreys, Sean Holley says the Lions

:21:45. > :21:48.scrum-half is misunderstood. Phillips is due to join the Wales

:21:49. > :21:51.squad this week ahead of the autumn internationals. Warren Gatland has

:21:52. > :21:52.already said events in France won't affect his involvement in the

:21:53. > :21:56.matches. Wales coach Warren Gatland will be

:21:57. > :21:59.taking questions on this and all the big rugby stories on Radio Wales

:22:00. > :22:01.Sport at seven o'clock tonight. To get involved, tweet your question to

:22:02. > :22:04.@bbcradiowales. Former England fast bowler Simon

:22:05. > :22:08.Jones says he's already had interest from other counties after Glamorgan

:22:09. > :22:11.decided not to offer him a new deal. Jones wanted to end his career in

:22:12. > :22:14.Wales, but has been told by new chief executive Hugh Morris that

:22:15. > :22:18.there's no budget for a new contract. Jones will only play 20

:22:19. > :22:25.over cricket from next season. He also wants to do more work,

:22:26. > :22:29.mentoring young players. That disappointed me. I felt I had more

:22:30. > :22:37.to offer at Glamorgan off the field as well. For them not to offer me

:22:38. > :22:45.anything like that was a tough thing. I am sure he will do an

:22:46. > :22:48.exceptional job in Glamorgan. Swansea City captain Ashley Williams

:22:49. > :22:51.says he's ready for Sunday's Premier League derby against Cardiff after

:22:52. > :22:54.coming through his first match for five weeks unscathed. He played the

:22:55. > :22:57.full 90 minutes of yesterday's goalless draw against West Ham, the

:22:58. > :23:00.same score that Cardiff achieved against Norwich. Sunday's first

:23:01. > :23:04.all-Welsh Premier League derby will be refereed by Mike Dean. He was hit

:23:05. > :23:09.by a coin, thrown from the crowd, the last time he took charge of the

:23:10. > :23:12.fixture in 2009. In the women's game, Jess Fishlock

:23:13. > :23:15.says she hopes to play in Wales' next World Cup qualifier, despite

:23:16. > :23:21.breaking her wrist in Saturday's 2-0 defeat against England. The Welsh

:23:22. > :23:24.captain played most of the match in real pain, but now hopes to get

:23:25. > :23:29.permission from FIFA to wear a soft cast for the game in Montenegro in

:23:30. > :23:31.four weeks. Wales are currently second in their qualifying group and

:23:32. > :23:32.remain positive about their prospects despite the England

:23:33. > :23:36.defeat. Finally tonight, Chaz Davies from

:23:37. > :23:37.Knighton will be racing for Ducati in next year's World Superbikes.

:23:38. > :23:40.Jamie. The Moelfre Lifeboat crew has been

:23:41. > :23:44.reunited with people they rescued over the summer as part of a

:23:45. > :23:47.campaign to raise money for a new lifeboat station. The existing

:23:48. > :23:52.boathouse is too small for the crew's newest vessel. Those who've

:23:53. > :23:53.experienced the life-saving work of the Moelfre volunteers say they'll

:23:54. > :24:06.be eternally grateful. It was a busy summer for the Moelfre

:24:07. > :24:10.Lifeboat crew. Last June they were called to help the King family who

:24:11. > :24:19.were in a speedboat off Amlwch which was hit by several large waves. Our

:24:20. > :24:23.daughter was taken next. She was having a bad panic attack at the

:24:24. > :24:33.point. We had to be winced aboard the helicopter. For me, it was the

:24:34. > :24:36.most amazing experience. Looking back, it was pretty scary at the

:24:37. > :24:39.time. Today, Mr and Mrs King relived their rescue, watching the footage

:24:40. > :24:46.gathered by the crew's helmet mounted cameras and thanked their

:24:47. > :24:53.rescuers. We have always supported them but when you actually needed

:24:54. > :25:04.them, you think how good and professional and what a fabulous

:25:05. > :25:12.charity it is. This new boat will not be able to fit into this old

:25:13. > :25:15.boathouse. It is moored offshore. -- The new lifeboat is moored offshore

:25:16. > :25:19.as it's too big for the existing 104-year-old station. Work will be

:25:20. > :25:25.finished next year at a cost of ?9 million hence the appeal for

:25:26. > :25:34.donations. We go out and do other job and the lifeboat. This year has

:25:35. > :25:37.seen a huge amount of people coming back to thank as. It is nice to see.

:25:38. > :25:40.The King family and others here today have been given a helping hand

:25:41. > :25:44.by Moelfre's volunteers, and by backing the fundraising campaign

:25:45. > :25:46.they're returning the favour. Derek's back. Let's get the weather

:25:47. > :25:52.forecast. Wales may have missed the worst of

:25:53. > :25:56.the gales but we did receive some heavy rain. Cardiff was the wettest

:25:57. > :26:00.place in the UK last night with over 40mm. There are five flood alerts in
