More than 15,000 lined the streets of Exeter to pay tribute

:00:41.:00:43.

to the Chiefs rugby team who are now the best club in England.

:00:44.:00:46.

The players showed off the Premiership trophy

:00:47.:00:48.

which they won against the Wasps at Twickenham.

:00:49.:00:50.

John Henderson joined them on the parade.

:00:51.:00:52.

The best team in the country with possibly the best fans.

:00:53.:00:54.

I think it's fantastic, absolutely fantastic,

:00:55.:00:58.

the fact that we have all come together to wish them

:00:59.:01:00.

I think it's fantastic, absolutely fantastic,

:01:01.:01:07.

the fact that we have all come together to wish them

:01:08.:01:10.

It was only in 2010 that Gareth Stevenson kicked the Chiefs

:01:11.:01:16.

On Saturday, with two minutes to spare, his kick

:01:17.:01:19.

The amount of people here, it's unbelievable.

:01:20.:01:23.

Today was not just a celebration of a thrilling defeat

:01:24.:01:26.

of Wasps but a culmination of passion and perseverance.

:01:27.:01:31.

Rebranded and reborn, the Exeter Chiefs have enjoyed

:01:32.:01:33.

a rugby renaissance in the past 20 or so years.

:01:34.:01:38.

The old guard of Bath, Leicester and Harlequins,

:01:39.:01:41.

to name but three, surely have a new superpower to contend with.

:01:42.:01:47.

We have done something no other sporting club in Exeter

:01:48.:01:51.

You can see it means a lot to people.

:01:52.:02:03.

Everybody wants to be the best in sport.

:02:04.:02:09.

The victory tour ended with an official reception at the Guildhall.

:02:10.:02:20.

The support we have had for years has grown and grown.

:02:21.:02:26.

The hangovers will pass but the pride will last a lifetime.

:02:27.:02:38.

Police have said the death of a 15-year-old boy in North Devon

:02:39.:02:41.

and the hospitalisation of two other young people in Plymouth

:02:42.:02:44.

are not down to a bad batch of the drug MDMA.

:02:45.:02:46.

The teenager died in the early hours of Saturday after taking the drug

:02:47.:02:49.

In Plymouth, another young man is said to be

:02:50.:02:53.

A young woman was released from Derriford Hospital last night.

:02:54.:02:58.

Police say both are believed to have taken an overdose of the drug.

:02:59.:03:03.

Police say they're becoming increasingly concerned

:03:04.:03:05.

for the welfare of a man who's missing in Exeter.

:03:06.:03:08.

Dex Johnston was last seen near Exe Bridges in the early hours

:03:09.:03:11.

of yesterday wearing a white t-shirt and khaki coloured shorts.

:03:12.:03:15.

Teams from the Devon and Cornwall police specialist search unit have

:03:16.:03:19.

been looking for traces of the 24-year-old today

:03:20.:03:22.

Some tourism leaders and economists are predicting a labour shortage

:03:23.:03:27.

in the tourist trade in the south west after Brexit.

:03:28.:03:31.

The industry relies on many European staff and as our home affairs

:03:32.:03:34.

correspondent Simon Hall reports, there are fears there won't be

:03:35.:03:39.

This inn relies on European workers and the manager feels

:03:40.:03:54.

if the numbers coming into Britain fall after Brexit.

:03:55.:03:57.

People going to stay in a hotel or, dare I say, going into hospital

:03:58.:04:02.

might find there are less staff there because those sort

:04:03.:04:05.

of place there have European staff working there.

:04:06.:04:08.

Only a short drive away at this hotel, they believe

:04:09.:04:17.

It is quite difficult because there are not many English people that are

:04:18.:04:26.

willing to work in this eerie soap, basically we are covering their

:04:27.:04:31.

spots. We're not taking any jobs, we are just taking the jobs which are

:04:32.:04:33.

available. Only a short drive away

:04:34.:04:37.

at this hotel, they believe they will still have plenty

:04:38.:04:40.

of good-quality staff after Brexit because

:04:41.:04:42.

they pride themselves The local kids, they are either

:04:43.:04:44.

going to be customers or staff, We want them to come in and get

:04:45.:04:49.

jobs and earn money, and get developed and trained,

:04:50.:04:56.

and get a career in hospitality. We do full training here. We are

:04:57.:05:08.

constantly looking for new staff and there are lots of great new

:05:09.:05:13.

positions. And it means a lot to you to have a job like this? Yes, it

:05:14.:05:15.

does. But one south-west economist

:05:16.:05:18.

believes that overall there will be issues in finding staff

:05:19.:05:21.

for the tourist trade after Brexit. I think it's quite possible that

:05:22.:05:26.

there will be significant labour shortages after we come

:05:27.:05:28.

out of Europe. Some of the Eastern European

:05:29.:05:30.

labour won't be available, some will go back to Europe,

:05:31.:05:35.

others won't come. The Conservatives say they will

:05:36.:05:44.

deliver Brexit and reduce net emigration...

:05:45.:05:56.

The Liberal Democrats have promised...

:05:57.:06:24.

Immigration has been a contentious issue in politics in recent years

:06:25.:06:36.

but what happens with a number of people coming into the country

:06:37.:06:39.

after Brexit, the population of the south-west is still expected

:06:40.:06:44.

It is predicted to rise by up to 20% in the next ten years,

:06:45.:06:51.

according to the Office for National Statistics.

:06:52.:06:54.

The large majority of that is due to migration from the

:06:55.:06:57.

rest of the UK, not overseas and most

:06:58.:06:59.

People have lined the route of the south west rail line today

:07:00.:07:07.

to catch a glimpse of the only steam locomotive to have been built

:07:08.:07:10.

This was the Tornado as she went through Exeter today.

:07:11.:07:16.

She entered main line service in 2008 but today is the first time

:07:17.:07:21.

she crossed the Tamar into Cornwall to spend the week at the Bodmin

:07:22.:07:24.

and Wenford Railway carrying passengers for the first few

:07:25.:07:27.

Time now for a look at the weather with Alexis.

:07:28.:07:37.

We've had a good deal of dry weather today. Some brighter spells as well.

:07:38.:07:48.

There is still the risk of rain tonight and coastal mist.

:07:49.:07:53.

Temperatures stay in double figures. With a fairly light south-westerly

:07:54.:07:58.

winds. Through the morning tomorrow, there will be cloud but we hope that

:07:59.:08:02.

will thin and raped to allow for sunshine in some places. Low cloud

:08:03.:08:07.

will linger in the South West. They may be coastal mist as well. Under

:08:08.:08:14.

the cloud cover, and towards the South West, just a high 14 Celsius.

:08:15.:08:18.

A good deal of cloud tomorrow night will thin and break to allow for

:08:19.:08:23.

clearer skies, high-pressure on Wednesday and Thursday and a lot of

:08:24.:08:27.

settled weather. Sunny spells will break through the cloud cover, there

:08:28.:08:31.

maybe mist and low cloud in places and then this weather front will

:08:32.:08:39.

push through till Friday. Still uncertainty about the timing of the

:08:40.:08:42.

weather front slowed Tuesday tuned to the ball cast throughout the

:08:43.:08:48.

week. Looking ahead to the weekend, the chance of the scattered shower

:08:49.:08:51.

but there will be brighter spells as well. Cloud expected over the next

:08:52.:08:55.

few days. Brighter Sunny spells with cloud breaking and inning in places.

:08:56.:09:04.

Temperatures on Thursday and Friday up to 13 -- 18 or 19 Celsius.

:09:05.:09:10.

Goodbye.
