:00:15. > :00:23.The police say the chances of finding her alive are slim.
:00:24. > :00:33.The hypothesis at this time is that something has happened to Bowery,
:00:34. > :00:38.some accident or misadventure. -- to Bowery. -- Valerie.
:00:39. > :00:40.Good evening and welcome to the late news
:00:41. > :00:42.from BBC Channel Islands. I'm Alison Moss.
:00:43. > :00:43.Also tonight: The row crossing the Channel

:00:47. > :00:48.The search will resume in the morning

:00:56. > :01:03.at Devil's Hole on Friday - after telling her family
:01:04. > :01:07.After three days of searching the police
:01:08. > :01:10.admit the chances of finding her alive are slim.
:01:11. > :01:16.It's day four, and Jersey Police have widened their search area,
:01:17. > :01:19.scouring fields near Devil's Hole for any signs of Valerie Jehan.
:01:20. > :01:21.Officers believe her mobile phone is still in this area.
:01:22. > :01:24.But, so far, no trace of the 75-year-old has been found,
:01:25. > :01:26.and there hasn't been a single sighting of her.
:01:27. > :01:29.Because we've had no other sightings or information to go on,
:01:30. > :01:36.our hypothesis at this time is that something has happened to Valerie
:01:37. > :01:39.very soon after she got off the bus, otherwise we would have expected
:01:40. > :01:43.Valerie can be seen here on a bus from West Park to Devil's Hole
:01:44. > :01:50.She checked the destination with the driver as she boarded.
:01:51. > :01:51.And had told her family she was going for a walk.
:01:52. > :01:57.She got off the bus in the pub car park just behind me,
:01:58. > :02:03.and then walked up these steps, heading to the main road.
:02:04. > :02:05.But from here there are several routes she may have taken,
:02:06. > :02:08.including the coastal path or even back the way she came.
:02:09. > :02:09.Throughout the weekend, searches were carried out
:02:10. > :02:14.Both a light aircraft and a helicopter were used
:02:15. > :02:16.to look for Valerie, while a drone was also put up
:02:17. > :02:22.But it's now been more than 72 hours since she went missing.
:02:23. > :02:31.Given that we have a 75-year-old lady in a difficult environment,
:02:32. > :02:34.on the north coast, and given the horrendous weather
:02:35. > :02:38.we've had over the weekend, after you get past that 72-hour
:02:39. > :02:41.limit, then the chances of finding her alive continue
:02:42. > :02:49.Officers are urging anyone who was in the area between
:02:50. > :02:51.12 and 6pm on Friday to come forward.

:03:15. > :03:16.A Guernsey based businessman is being accused of unfair practices
:03:17. > :03:20.by dozens of mobile park home residents in the UK.
:03:21. > :03:22.They say they're being exploited because of special terms
:03:23. > :03:26.in contracts signed by Barry Weir, who lives in St Peter Port.
:03:27. > :03:29.But he insists it's nothing to do with him.

:03:52. > :03:57.In the UK, park home residents own their home
:03:58. > :04:10.They pay a pitch fee to cover the upkeep of communal areas.
:04:11. > :04:12.However, here at Marigold, residents like Rose

:04:15. > :04:17.Sometimes I could sit here and cry, what have
:04:18. > :04:28.We have heard from dozens of people living across all six parks
:04:29. > :04:32.and they are having the same problems as Rose.
:04:33. > :04:34.That's because Barry Weir's contracts contain
:04:35. > :04:36.unique clauses that some MPs say are unfair.
:04:37. > :04:39.It is clear some park home residents are being exploited by intimidation,
:04:40. > :04:44.bullying, costs, fees which are not justified.
:04:45. > :04:47.Here in West Sussex, they pay one of the highest pitch fees in
:04:48. > :04:53.Yet they still have to pay for the communal upkeep
:04:54. > :04:57.You get a letter to say you owe this money.
:04:58. > :05:01.Being as my husband is quite ill come he doesn't want any worry,
:05:02. > :05:10.We wanted to put our allegations to Barry Weir directly
:05:11. > :05:20.but we kept being told the parks were nothing to do with him.

:06:58. > :07:03.from France with the French visitors coming for a stable leisure visit as
:07:04. > :07:10.opposed to a day visit. And we need to be working harder to tell our

:07:58. > :08:06.went digital only. The visit Jersey campaign was very different. Are you
:08:07. > :08:12.seeing any results from that? In terms of visits to the website we
:08:13. > :08:17.are seeing 80% plus growth from the UK, for example. That is phenomenal.
:08:18. > :08:22.But what are they doing on the website? We see over 100,000
:08:23. > :08:30.referrals from the visit Jersey website through to our island
:08:31. > :08:32.suppliers, hotel companies etc. So they are getting increasingly large
