That is all from BBC News At Six, I will be back with more

:00:00.:00:00.

Our top story: Frontman of the Lostprophets, the rock star Ian

:00:07.:00:10.

Watkins, admits a series of child sex offences. This investigation has

:00:11.:00:14.

uncovered the most shocking and harrowing child abuse evidence I've

:00:15.:00:21.

ever seen. There's no doubt in my mind that Ian Watkins has exploited

:00:22.:00:24.

his celebrity status in order to abuse young children Our other

:00:25.:00:25.

headlines: Our other headlines: Our hospitals

:00:26.:00:45.

should be reviewed to address our anxiety about the quality of care.

:00:46.:00:50.

That's the call from the Royal College of Surgeons.

:00:51.:00:54.

Big changes on the way for school teachers, pupils and parents.

:00:55.:00:58.

As the Scottish government outlines the case for independence I'll be

:00:59.:01:02.

working out what it could mean for Wales.

:01:03.:01:08.

Just in time. Back after that hairline fracture, Alex Cuthbert

:01:09.:01:15.

returns to face the Wallabies. And a last song. The man who starred

:01:16.:01:20.

in Morecambe and Wise, Crossroads and Coronation Street, Stan

:01:21.:01:21.

Stennett, has died. Police say it's the most shocking

:01:22.:01:32.

and harrowing child abuse they've ever seen. Today, rock singer Ian

:01:33.:01:37.

Watkins, from Pontypridd, pleaded guilty to a string of sex offences

:01:38.:01:41.

including the attempted rape of baby. The former frontman with

:01:42.:01:44.

multi-million selling band Lostprophets also admitted

:01:45.:01:46.

possessing and making child sex abuse images. The officer in charge

:01:47.:01:54.

of the investigation said the search for any other victims of the abuse

:01:55.:02:08.

would go on. Since their formation, Lostprophets

:02:09.:02:14.

from Pontypridd found success across the world. They sold three .5

:02:15.:02:18.

million albums and had a huge following regularly appearing on TV.

:02:19.:02:24.

Ian Watkins was the vibrant front man of the band. Today, a different

:02:25.:02:37.

Ian Watkins, impassive and supers -- sober suited, took centre stage at

:02:38.:02:44.

Cardiff Crown Court. The charges he had denied. The baby 's mother

:02:45.:02:49.

alongside them in the dark, also facing sexual abuse charge. Before

:02:50.:02:55.

the jury were about to be sworn in, Ian Watkins tray -- change the

:02:56.:03:02.

number of his pleas. He was guilty of attempted to rape the bees.

:03:03.:03:12.

In addition he admitted taking and possessing indecent images. Another

:03:13.:03:19.

of the victims are far too young to be able to understand what has

:03:20.:03:24.

happened to them. The defendants for their own gratification. Watkins and

:03:25.:03:30.

the mothers spend time in numerous hotels in Cardiff with a young

:03:31.:03:34.

babies. One of the infants was 19 days short of his first state when

:03:35.:03:39.

sexual images and videos were filmed. When police raided Ian

:03:40.:03:47.

Watkins's home, they found pornographic material. This

:03:48.:03:50.

investigation has uncovered the most shocking and harrowing child abuse

:03:51.:03:53.

evidence I have ever seen. There is no doubt in my mind that Ian Watkins

:03:54.:03:58.

has exploited his celebrity status in order to abuse young children.

:03:59.:04:05.

Today's outcome ensures that three people responsible have been brought

:04:06.:04:11.

to justice. She is an that this woman

:04:12.:04:21.

it is likely the offender would have targeted vulnerable adults who have

:04:22.:04:26.

access to young people and have groom them through a variety of

:04:27.:04:31.

techniques and different types of manipulation. If that person has

:04:32.:04:41.

rock star status, they are trying to flatter that person. It is likely

:04:42.:04:45.

that somebody with celebrity status will try to use that in trying to

:04:46.:04:48.

gain access to individuals and as a route into grooming behaviour. The

:04:49.:04:55.

theme of the fenders are sometime partners of Ian Watkins and sexually

:04:56.:04:59.

abuse their children at his behest. They also made their babies

:05:00.:05:04.

available for him to abuse. The sexual abuse of babies is something

:05:05.:05:08.

that is very difficult for all to comprehend. However, over the last

:05:09.:05:14.

year with an increase in online child abuse imagery we have noted

:05:15.:05:23.

along with other organisations that imagery has both increased in terms

:05:24.:05:26.

of its severity but we have seen a decline in the age of those young

:05:27.:05:31.

people. Ian Watkins is behind bars while psychological reports are

:05:32.:05:34.

being prepared on him and the two mothers. In court, he was described

:05:35.:05:38.

as a committed paedophile and police say his guilty pleas do not mark the

:05:39.:05:43.

end of the investigation. They say they will work tirelessly to in --

:05:44.:05:50.

identify the victims. The judge told the jury they had been saved from

:05:51.:05:54.

having to watch extremely graphic and distressing material. All three

:05:55.:05:57.

will be tempted -- sentenced in December.

:05:58.:06:00.

All hospitals in Wales should be reviewed to address "public anxiety"

:06:01.:06:03.

about the quality of care they provide. That's the call from the

:06:04.:06:09.

Royal College of Surgeons who want to see an improvement in how

:06:10.:06:13.

hospitals here are inspected. The Welsh Government insists it's

:06:14.:06:18.

already driving up standards. Here's our health correspondent, Owain

:06:19.:06:22.

Clarke. It has been a year when the NHS has

:06:23.:06:27.

a time struggle to cope leading to a crescendo of concerns across the

:06:28.:06:31.

country. You think you are going to be looked after and the outcome is

:06:32.:06:36.

some people are dying from lack of care. My father is 90 years old,

:06:37.:06:44.

suspected pneumonia, he has been sat in that ambulance there since half

:06:45.:06:49.

past 12. Over an hour. They are getting good money to do a

:06:50.:06:54.

professional job and they are not doing it right. I am only just 60

:06:55.:07:00.

years of age and they do actually want this operation because I want

:07:01.:07:04.

to live a lot longer. Royal College of Surgeons is worried about the big

:07:05.:07:08.

rise in the numbers of patients waiting too long for hospital

:07:09.:07:11.

treatment and about high death rates in South Wales in patients waiting

:07:12.:07:16.

for heart surgery. It has added its way to calls more should be done to

:07:17.:07:22.

make sure patients are saved. The Royal College says there is merit

:07:23.:07:26.

interviewing all hospitals to give the public urgent assurance about

:07:27.:07:30.

standards of care. Whilst stopping short of the Mandingo full-scale

:07:31.:07:35.

enquiry, it argues follicular system of inspection and external

:07:36.:07:39.

challenges and suggest dedicated hospital inspected it should be set

:07:40.:07:44.

up within health Inspectorate Wales. The boss of that organisation

:07:45.:07:48.

admitted to an Assembly committed staff shortages meant she could not

:07:49.:07:51.

give a strong assurance that the scandal similar to stuff it could

:07:52.:07:58.

not happen here. Ann Clwyd who led the review of NHS complaints across

:07:59.:08:02.

the border says the case for a wider investigation into the Welsh NHS is

:08:03.:08:05.

now stronger than ever. Long waiting lists, long waits for diagnosis in

:08:06.:08:13.

the first place compared to England, and a number of patients

:08:14.:08:18.

particularly in cardiac surgery dying on waiting lists. Don't listen

:08:19.:08:25.

to politicians, listen to these professionals. They are saying there

:08:26.:08:29.

is great cause for concern. We have seen reports that the reports which

:08:30.:08:32.

has demonstrated poor polities of care. -- quality of care. We need to

:08:33.:08:40.

understand what is going wrong. The only way we're going to get to the

:08:41.:08:43.

bottom of this is through an enquiry. The Welsh Government is

:08:44.:08:46.

adamant that sort of enquiry is not needed, stronger systems are in

:08:47.:08:53.

place, it says, to intervene. Health boards have the publish annual

:08:54.:08:57.

quality reports. It says the vast majority of patients are satisfied

:08:58.:09:00.

with the care they get even in a year that has been particularly

:09:01.:09:03.

challenging. A fire at a recycling unit in the

:09:04.:09:07.

Vale of Glamorgan is expected to burn for a few more days according

:09:08.:09:10.

to South Wales and Fire and Rescue Service. More than 80 firefighters

:09:11.:09:14.

were called to tackle the blaze which broke out on the Vale Business

:09:15.:09:17.

Park at Llandow near Cowbridge in the early hours of this morning. The

:09:18.:09:22.

cause is not yet known. It is a large scale fire, it is a building

:09:23.:09:28.

or 9000 square metres. It is a large fire to tackle. We deployed the

:09:29.:09:34.

proper resources. As a result we have managed to surround the fire

:09:35.:09:38.

ring is to a stage when it is not likely to spread any further. -- so

:09:39.:09:51.

the fire is at a stage. There's a big change on the way for

:09:52.:09:55.

school teachers, pupils and parents. The Education Minister Huw Lewis has

:09:56.:09:58.

outlined far reaching plans for schools. He was responding to a

:09:59.:10:01.

review into the structures of education. Our education

:10:02.:10:03.

correspondent, Arwyn Jones is here. That review men 85 recommendations.

:10:04.:10:06.

None are earth-shattering. Those changes are quite wide-ranging. If I

:10:07.:10:11.

turned to my whiteboard. One of the complaints made was that schools

:10:12.:10:13.

would not operate, they don't help each other. There will be many

:10:14.:10:18.

available for high performing schools to help the weaker schools.

:10:19.:10:24.

They will drive up standards. Responsibility has been taken away

:10:25.:10:27.

from councils and there will be a national model for school

:10:28.:10:30.

improvement. That is being worked out in terms of the details. One of

:10:31.:10:34.

the recommendations not adopted by the Welsh Government was schools

:10:35.:10:39.

inspections. A school will get 20 days notice of an inspection. Robert

:10:40.:10:45.

Hill says that is too much, you don't get a fairer reflection. They

:10:46.:10:50.

should have no more than two or three days. The school gets a phone

:10:51.:10:55.

call on Monday and the school inspectors will be there on the

:10:56.:10:57.

Wednesday. The Welsh Government says they will not adopt there. -- that.

:10:58.:11:04.

Another hint today that things are not looking so good for Wales when

:11:05.:11:07.

it comes to those international schools rankings which it you

:11:08.:11:14.

shortly. The league tables where pupils from 70 countries set the

:11:15.:11:18.

same examples up three years ago, the last set of results came out. We

:11:19.:11:23.

tumbled down the league tables and a lot of work has gone into improving

:11:24.:11:30.

the situation. The Education Minister was reiterating what he

:11:31.:11:33.

said before. There are other measures. I don't think it takes

:11:34.:11:41.

much to read into that. We're going to investigate this in much more

:11:42.:11:45.

detail in the coming days. Yes, starting tomorrow morning and for a

:11:46.:11:48.

week we're looking at the state of education in Wales. We have been to

:11:49.:11:53.

Finland. They do well in these league tables stop we have taken a

:11:54.:11:57.

teacher over from Wales to see what he makes of their school system.

:11:58.:12:02.

Also we are looking at what the economy and business reacts to

:12:03.:12:09.

education in Wales. The Prime Minister says the UK is

:12:10.:12:13.

still the world leader in offshore wind power, despite an energy firm

:12:14.:12:16.

shelving plans to build a wind farm in the Bristol channel. Atlantic

:12:17.:12:21.

Array would have been built about 14 miles off the south Wales coast.

:12:22.:12:27.

Developer RWE Innology say the 240 turbine scheme, which would have

:12:28.:12:30.

been double the size of any wind farm currently operating in Britain,

:12:31.:12:36.

is no longer viable. The Wales Coast Path brought in more

:12:37.:12:40.

than ?30 million to the Welsh economy and attracted nearly three

:12:41.:12:43.

million visitors over the course of a year. That's according to a new

:12:44.:12:47.

study which looked at the path's economic impact between October 2012

:12:48.:12:52.

and September 2013. The 870 mile long route, which stretches from the

:12:53.:12:56.

River Dee in Flintshire all the way to Chepstow, is the first of its

:12:57.:13:04.

kind anywhere in the world. We have had people travel from

:13:05.:13:08.

Germany and Spain and England and Scotland especially to do the

:13:09.:13:12.

coastal path. They mean to the whole path in a year that they will do a

:13:13.:13:17.

section, maybe from Port Talbot to hear and then another section later

:13:18.:13:21.

on in the year. It gives them exercise. They learn more about the

:13:22.:13:26.

environment and the wildlife around. It is a beautiful place. You have

:13:27.:13:32.

got everything to see. You have the rock formations and it is all for

:13:33.:13:34.

free. Earlier today, the Scottish

:13:35.:13:37.

Government outlined its vision for an independent Scotland. The

:13:38.:13:40.

document is a crucial part of the referendum campaign ahead of the

:13:41.:13:44.

vote in September next year. But whatever the decision, what impact

:13:45.:13:48.

could it have on us? Our political editor Nick Servini is outside the

:13:49.:13:57.

Scottish Parliament in Edinburgh. Here it is, 650 pages setting up the

:13:58.:14:03.

case for independence. A crucial day in the campaign so far. Yes campaign

:14:04.:14:08.

is behind in the polls. They will hope this will give them a boost.

:14:09.:14:14.

The critics say it is not answering all the questions. But this will

:14:15.:14:19.

form the basis for all the debates over the next ten months ahead of

:14:20.:14:24.

that referendum in September. That debate will be watched all over the

:14:25.:14:28.

world, particularly closely in Wales. It is a difficult question to

:14:29.:14:37.

try to answer. What will be potential impact be in Wales? I have

:14:38.:14:41.

been on a journey of the imagination to try to work through some of the

:14:42.:14:46.

scenarios and look at the potential impact from a yes or a no vote in

:14:47.:14:55.

the referendum. This is good morning Wales with

:14:56.:14:59.

Felicity Evans. Scotland has said yes to independence. The First

:15:00.:15:04.

Minister said it was a proud day for a proud country that was truly a

:15:05.:15:10.

nation once again. It is the morning of Friday the 19th of September 20

:15:11.:15:16.

14th and history in the making. Scotland has voted to leave the

:15:17.:15:19.

union after hundreds of years. It will have full control over

:15:20.:15:24.

taxation, the welfare state, even defence. Enormous implication for

:15:25.:15:28.

the people of Scotland but what about the rest of the UK? And here

:15:29.:15:33.

in Wales. The Welsh Government already has new powers over some

:15:34.:15:37.

taxes like stamp duty and borrowing on the way. Does this mean more will

:15:38.:15:42.

be heading in the same direction after a yes vote? To try to answer

:15:43.:15:47.

some of these questions, I have come to discuss the implications with

:15:48.:15:51.

Labour's former Welsh and Northern Irish secretary, Paul Murphy, who

:15:52.:15:55.

believes in the union and the plot can remember of the European

:15:56.:15:58.

Parliament, Jill Evans who believes in independence. -- and the Plaid

:15:59.:16:06.

Cymru member. I don't think it will be at difference in what once people

:16:07.:16:13.

think of independence. It will be a seismic change if Welsh people need

:16:14.:16:20.

independence. All evidence says Welsh people believe in devolution.

:16:21.:16:26.

That is a far cry from the business of going independent. I don't think

:16:27.:16:33.

people in Wales are going to be demanding independence because every

:16:34.:16:38.

country has a unique path to follow. It certainly will make us look at

:16:39.:16:41.

what powers we need to build our economy and create jobs and ensure

:16:42.:16:45.

that we are not sidelined within the UK.

:16:46.:16:54.

Radio Wales. This is good morning Wales. The main story this morning.

:16:55.:17:00.

Scotland has spoken and it is a note independence.

:17:01.:17:04.

A fascinating campaign but the people of Scotland have decided to

:17:05.:17:08.

stay in the United Kingdom. I wonder what all this means is Mike is it

:17:09.:17:13.

the end of nationalism that further devolution for regeneration? Or is

:17:14.:17:18.

this just the start of more powers going to Scotland and even,

:17:19.:17:22.

potentially, for Wales in the future? Despite the fact that the

:17:23.:17:27.

people of Scotland have voted no in this referendum is up Jill Evans and

:17:28.:17:33.

Paul Murphy both say even with a no vote things will still change. I

:17:34.:17:39.

would not say it would not happen for another generation because I

:17:40.:17:44.

think the debate is nonstop. Debate will carry on. But it has been

:17:45.:17:52.

defeated. That vote was defeat did. That proposal was defeated, it does

:17:53.:17:57.

not been the argument is finished. That is a feeling that devolution

:17:58.:18:04.

first is here to stay big time. Probably, in Scotland, more powers

:18:05.:18:11.

are likely to be devolved from evil Max -- evil Max -- DevoMax. There

:18:12.:18:31.

will be some kind of impact on this place and the kind of powers it has.

:18:32.:18:37.

A kind of crystal wall gazing there. One final thought to bring you up to

:18:38.:18:41.

date. A few days ago the First Minister of Wales Carwyn Jones hit

:18:42.:18:45.

the headlines in Scotland when he indicated that Wales would be to an

:18:46.:18:52.

independent Scotland if it wanted to keep the pound and stay in a

:18:53.:18:56.

currency union. That is a huge issue today during the debates that took

:18:57.:18:59.

place and it is one of the many debates that will be raging of the

:19:00.:19:04.

course of the next ten months. Much more to come before seven

:19:05.:19:08.

o'clock. He's recovered ahead of schedule after that hairline

:19:09.:19:10.

fracture. Alex Cuthbert returns to face the Wallabies.

:19:11.:19:19.

And the man who co-starred with Morecombe and Wise, the comedian and

:19:20.:19:29.

entertainer Stan Stennett, has died. Its Europe's biggest construction

:19:30.:19:31.

project and Welsh companies are being told to grab a slice of the

:19:32.:19:35.

work on offer building a rail line across the south east of England. At

:19:36.:19:39.

a cost of almost ?15 billion, Crossrail is entering its peak

:19:40.:19:42.

construction phase and its bosses have been in Cardiff to talk to

:19:43.:19:45.

firms about how they can win contracts. Here's our business

:19:46.:19:54.

correspondent, Brian Meechan. It is a rail link the stretches from

:19:55.:19:59.

Berkshire to Essex via Heathrow and Central London. This man travels the

:20:00.:20:04.

M4 every week from his home in Carmarthenshire to work on a dash on

:20:05.:20:10.

building the tunnels. I turn up on the Monday morning and turned back

:20:11.:20:13.

on a Friday evening. I stay up there all week. The tunnels are reinforced

:20:14.:20:18.

with Welsh steel. It comes from the Cardiff waste factory. 50,000 tonnes

:20:19.:20:25.

of steel have already come from here and been used in the tunnels as part

:20:26.:20:29.

of the crossrail project. The company says that is just the

:20:30.:20:35.

beginning. There are further 75 business opportunities and the

:20:36.:20:38.

equivalent of 55,000 full-time jobs available before the project is

:20:39.:20:47.

completed. The Crossrail chairman spend a day in Cardiff urging Welsh

:20:48.:20:50.

businesses to make the most of the chances Europe's weakest

:20:51.:20:55.

construction project offers them. It is up to the business to show some

:20:56.:21:00.

spirit and fight. It is there to be won. I am pleased to maximise UK

:21:01.:21:05.

contest and that means working outside the south-east. Crossrail

:21:06.:21:13.

will cost twice as much as the London Olympics. The recent

:21:14.:21:19.

parliamentary report found there had been little economic benefits for

:21:20.:21:23.

Wales from the Olympics. I think the Olympics will harsh lesson for some

:21:24.:21:26.

people. The bull assumed you could get but you have to go for things.

:21:27.:21:33.

-- people assumed. We work with companies who want to be part of the

:21:34.:21:38.

supply chain so that is our role and function. It was sad with the does

:21:39.:21:41.

have more out of the Olympics. Parts company have learned from that

:21:42.:21:47.

experience. The message from Crossrail is simple, it is open for

:21:48.:21:51.

business. It is up to Welsh companies to turn those

:21:52.:21:53.

opportunities into orders. He shared with stage with Morecambe

:21:54.:21:57.

and Wise and man of the greats in British theatre. The Welsh comedian

:21:58.:22:00.

and entertainer, Stan Stennett, has died. He was 88. He'd been a

:22:01.:22:04.

performer on stage and screen for six decades. Our arts correspondent

:22:05.:22:11.

Huw Thomas looks back at his life. A lifelong showman and entertainer,

:22:12.:22:14.

Stan Stennett shared the stage with some of the world's biggest stars.

:22:15.:22:20.

Over 60 years his variety acts brought friendly fun to theatres and

:22:21.:22:28.

television screens. He was raised by his grandmother near Bridgend. Only

:22:29.:22:34.

after the Second World War did he make it on stage where he performed

:22:35.:22:38.

with some of the world because stars. Over 60 years his variety

:22:39.:22:42.

acts brought friendly phone to theatres and TV screens. His career

:22:43.:22:48.

on screen blossomed in the '60s and he counted household names among his

:22:49.:22:50.

friends and fellow performers - Laurel and Hardy, Ken Dodd and

:22:51.:22:59.

Morecambe and Wise. And remember the first time ever saw him on stage was

:23:00.:23:03.

in 1955 and that was in the Empire in Swansea. I always remember he

:23:04.:23:13.

used to throw bits of cake into the audience and one hits me in the

:23:14.:23:17.

eye! I was eight years of age and I'd never seen a pantomime before.

:23:18.:23:24.

Right at the bottom of the ill was Morecambe and wise. They were right

:23:25.:23:32.

at the very bottom. In the early 50s I met my friends Eric and Ernie. We

:23:33.:23:37.

met in pantomime and we hit it off right away. We have something in

:23:38.:23:41.

common right from the start. There was something, there was some

:23:42.:23:50.

chemistry about it. In his long showbiz career, he also

:23:51.:23:53.

had straight acting roles in TV dramas and soaps but the stage

:23:54.:23:56.

remained his first love. Well into his 80s, Stan Stennett was

:23:57.:24:00.

a regular fixture on the Welsh panto circuit thrilling new audiences with

:24:01.:24:06.

classic, family fun. For his dedication to the theatre

:24:07.:24:09.

and tireless charity work he was awarded the MBE and was a fellow of

:24:10.:24:13.

the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama.

:24:14.:24:15.

He died in Cardiff last night, his family paying tribute to a great

life making people happy and doing a job he adored.

:24:32.:24:35.

He fractured a bone in his ankle in October and was told he'd miss the

:24:36.:24:40.

whole autumn series. But he's made a faster than expected recovery just

:24:41.:24:47.

in time to face the Wallabies. 2013 has been an incredible year for Alex

Cuthbert. His tries won the six Nations, then he scored in a Lions

:25:39.:25:42.

and Leigh Halfpenny. For Dan Biggar in particular it is an important

:25:43.:25:50.

selection. Rhys Priestland got the nod ahead of him for South Africa. I

:25:51.:25:58.

spoke to Rhys Priestland and said it was a tight call. We are going with

:25:59.:26:06.

the fly half with the form of playing with a little bit more

:26:07.:26:10.

confidence. The forward selection was predictable. Rhodri Jones as
