Good evening. First tonight, a scientist from Cambridge who was | :00:00. | :00:10. | |
gored in the throat by a red stag while she was on holiday in Scotland | :00:11. | :00:13. | |
has spoken about the accident for the first time. I'm very lucky that | :00:14. | :00:25. | |
I can talk and walk. I'm totally lucky to be alive. Caught on | :00:26. | :00:30. | |
camera, the motorists turning their temper on Peterborough's traffic | :00:31. | :00:34. | |
wardens. And a weather story with a twist. | :00:35. | :00:39. | |
One trader pays the price for one of the warmest winters on record. | :00:40. | :00:45. | |
I meet the pop star turned thicker as he retraces the steps of a World | :00:46. | :00:52. | |
War I hero. `` pop star turned vicar. | :00:53. | :00:58. | |
Good evening. A scientist from Cambridge who was gored in the | :00:59. | :01:05. | |
throat by a red stag on holiday in Scotland has spoken about the | :01:06. | :01:07. | |
accident for the first time. Dr Kate Stone says she feels "lucky to be | :01:08. | :01:11. | |
alive". The deer's antlers penetrated her spine and came very | :01:12. | :01:14. | |
close to paralysing her. Dr Stone, who runs a print technology firm in | :01:15. | :01:17. | |
Cottenham, spoke exclusively to our reporter, Alex Dunlop. | :01:18. | :01:27. | |
Seven weeks after she was brought out of a medically induced coma | :01:28. | :01:31. | |
Kate Stone still feeds herself through a tube. The actors punched | :01:32. | :01:37. | |
her windpipe and entered her spine, stopping two millimetres short of | :01:38. | :01:43. | |
paralysing her. It went through my trachea, my oesophagus and damaged | :01:44. | :01:47. | |
my vocal chords, fractured my neck and went into my spine. I am top `` | :01:48. | :01:53. | |
told it stopped a few millimetres from my spinal`cord so I am very | :01:54. | :01:59. | |
lucky I can talk, walk... You are lucky to be alive. Totally. She had | :02:00. | :02:06. | |
been enjoying a short break in the Highlands with friends and after a | :02:07. | :02:10. | |
late`night party, they were invited by a musician to it `` his home for | :02:11. | :02:17. | |
a nightcap where a stag had wandered into the garden. As they approached, | :02:18. | :02:25. | |
it panicked and bolted. I felt a big third and then a second third and I | :02:26. | :02:29. | |
knew I had been hit by an animal. I knew my neck was in a bad way. I | :02:30. | :02:36. | |
remained very calm and I just took one breath in and one breath out and | :02:37. | :02:43. | |
I did that for about 40 minutes So you are giving instructions? Kind | :02:44. | :02:47. | |
of. I was telling people a bit what to do. I was very self`aware. Red | :02:48. | :02:54. | |
stags are common and are by nature shy. Attacks on humans are virtually | :02:55. | :03:01. | |
unheard of. The stag was panicked and in the darkness, it ran into the | :03:02. | :03:10. | |
first person on the path. After two operations, Kate still | :03:11. | :03:15. | |
faces more surgery. For now, she is managing her Cambridge `based rent | :03:16. | :03:20. | |
firm from Dundee where she is recuperating with her family. | :03:21. | :03:26. | |
Weirdly, I don't wish it never happened because I am alive. If I | :03:27. | :03:30. | |
could change anything, who knows what the outcome could be. It | :03:31. | :03:35. | |
strengthens how I feel and when I communicate to people about life and | :03:36. | :03:41. | |
how to be positive... What do you hope to take away from this? I am | :03:42. | :03:47. | |
one of those people who tells my friends and people I meet that life | :03:48. | :03:52. | |
is short. It is something I have felt for quite awhile I always | :03:53. | :03:58. | |
thought it would be a car accident. A stag accident is much more my | :03:59. | :04:06. | |
style! While Kate lay in hospital, her | :04:07. | :04:12. | |
16`year`old niece, Charlotte, wrote and dedicated this song to her. It | :04:13. | :04:18. | |
is about family and friends coming together and looking after each | :04:19. | :04:21. | |
other. Any moment, something can take us | :04:22. | :04:24. | |
away. It made me cry a lot. Dr Kate Stone talking to Alex | :04:25. | :04:32. | |
Dunlop. Next tonight, parents fighting to | :04:33. | :04:35. | |
save a network of children's centres across Peterborough have vowed to | :04:36. | :04:38. | |
continue their campaign despite the council confirming closures. There | :04:39. | :04:42. | |
are 15 Sure Start centres in Peterborough, but under the plans, | :04:43. | :04:46. | |
that would change to four super hubs and three outreach centres, saving | :04:47. | :04:49. | |
the City Council just over a million pounds. In a moment, we'll hear from | :04:50. | :04:55. | |
the council's cabinet member for Children's Services, but first this | :04:56. | :04:56. | |
report from Emma Baugh. Refusing to give up, campaigners | :04:57. | :05:10. | |
plan their next move after the council said the budget could not be | :05:11. | :05:15. | |
changed to save the centres which parents say are a lifeline. There is | :05:16. | :05:21. | |
a lot of social isolation in Peterborough. A lot of people don't | :05:22. | :05:26. | |
have parents around so a lot of people struggle in silence. They are | :05:27. | :05:32. | |
often ashamed or embarrassed to admit they are having problems. | :05:33. | :05:39. | |
There are 15 children centres across Peterborough, four of them will be | :05:40. | :05:42. | |
turned into super hubs and there will also be three outreach centres. | :05:43. | :05:48. | |
But they will not be open to everyone as they are now. Only the | :05:49. | :05:53. | |
family is seen as being in the most need. Last night, an extraordinary | :05:54. | :05:58. | |
meeting of the council discussed changing the budget to keep the | :05:59. | :06:03. | |
centres as they are but it was rejected by 26 votes to 23. | :06:04. | :06:08. | |
Opposition is `` campaigners have been coming up with alternative | :06:09. | :06:14. | |
budget plans. We said other schemes could maybe be stopped. They want to | :06:15. | :06:21. | |
replace pavements but we do not need to do that. We are also suggesting | :06:22. | :06:30. | |
they cut the trees every so many years rather than every two or three | :06:31. | :06:35. | |
years. I am suggesting some of them give up some of their expenses. | :06:36. | :06:41. | |
A final decision is due next week but parents say they are still | :06:42. | :06:44. | |
prepared to take their campaign National. | :06:45. | :06:47. | |
Sheila Scott is the cabinet member for Children's Services. A few | :06:48. | :06:52. | |
moments ago, I put it to her that these changes would isolate mothers | :06:53. | :06:55. | |
and children at one of the most vulnerable times. | :06:56. | :07:02. | |
I have set from the beginning that to do nothing is not an option | :07:03. | :07:08. | |
because of changes in local government funding. What we have | :07:09. | :07:11. | |
tried to do is maintain a service in all parts of the city and where | :07:12. | :07:18. | |
people need specialist services outreach workers will go to their | :07:19. | :07:23. | |
homes or communities to deliver those services. We will not deprive | :07:24. | :07:27. | |
any body of the essential services they need. | :07:28. | :07:32. | |
But at the moment, everyone can access these 15 Sure Start Centre | :07:33. | :07:41. | |
and that will not be the case in the future, will it? | :07:42. | :07:46. | |
We will continue with some of the services because we consulted widely | :07:47. | :07:50. | |
with parents and we discovered which services they value the most. We | :07:51. | :07:55. | |
identified an additional ?100,0 0 which will be used to deliver their | :07:56. | :07:59. | |
services to the families in Peterborough. | :08:00. | :08:03. | |
But the parents say that is a drop in the ocean. | :08:04. | :08:09. | |
I don't think that is fair. The services we will be able to provide | :08:10. | :08:14. | |
` midwives, child development services, they are all essential. | :08:15. | :08:20. | |
But you want the super hubs to be in the most deprived areas of | :08:21. | :08:25. | |
Peterborough. Someone who is vulnerable might not necessarily | :08:26. | :08:30. | |
come from a deprived area. A first`time mother might suddenly | :08:31. | :08:34. | |
become very vulnerable whatever background she is from? | :08:35. | :08:42. | |
That is right. And we do it now We provide outreach services to people | :08:43. | :08:46. | |
in local communities and we will continue to do that. | :08:47. | :08:51. | |
If you are saying the service will continue to be just as good, how are | :08:52. | :08:56. | |
you going to be able to do that while saving over ?1 million? | :08:57. | :09:02. | |
I am not saying it will be the same service. | :09:03. | :09:07. | |
But you are saying it will be just as good. | :09:08. | :09:11. | |
There will be changes, but there have been changes to our funding. | :09:12. | :09:16. | |
Services will be different but children's services will continue to | :09:17. | :09:17. | |
be provided. Detectives have renewed their appeal | :09:18. | :09:22. | |
for information about the disappearance of a father of two | :09:23. | :09:25. | |
seven years ago. Terry McSpadden, who's 24, was last seen in March | :09:26. | :09:29. | |
2007 after a night out at the Locomotive pub in Wisbech. He didn't | :09:30. | :09:34. | |
return to his home in the nearby village of Elm. Police fear he may | :09:35. | :09:38. | |
have been murdered. Crimestoppers has offered a reward of ?5,000. | :09:39. | :09:48. | |
I am absolutely certain there are people out there who know why and | :09:49. | :09:52. | |
how Terry disappeared and I feel confident there are people with | :09:53. | :09:56. | |
significant information that could help us who perhaps didn't feel they | :09:57. | :09:58. | |
could come forward at the time. An inquest has been hearing that an | :09:59. | :10:04. | |
inmate at Woodhill Prison in Milton Keynes was found hanging in his cell | :10:05. | :10:08. | |
despite being on suicide watch. Kevin Scarlet had a history of self | :10:09. | :10:11. | |
harm and complex mental health problems. The hearing is due to | :10:12. | :10:14. | |
finish on Monday. An investigation is under way after | :10:15. | :10:17. | |
fire destroyed a car workshop in the centre of Northampton. Crews were | :10:18. | :10:21. | |
called to the JPS Commercial Automotive Works in Horsley Road in | :10:22. | :10:24. | |
Kingsthorpe just before nine o'clock last night. People living nearby | :10:25. | :10:29. | |
were asked to keep windows and doors shut because of gas cylinders and | :10:30. | :10:31. | |
asbestos in the roof. Recent assaults against traffic | :10:32. | :10:38. | |
wardens in Peterborough have led the council to fit them with CCTV | :10:39. | :10:43. | |
cameras. The body cams are for the safety of staff and will be used to | :10:44. | :10:47. | |
record intimidating or threatening behaviour. Footage can then be | :10:48. | :10:57. | |
passed onto the police if necessary. It is what every motorist dread a | :10:58. | :11:04. | |
ticket for parking illegally. Most drivers if they are in the wrong | :11:05. | :11:08. | |
accept the fine and pay gap, but some become abusive and their anger | :11:09. | :11:11. | |
is often directed towards the traffic warden. | :11:12. | :11:17. | |
People haven't got as much money as they did do ten years ago. Nobody | :11:18. | :11:23. | |
wants a parking fine. They only do their job. If you get a ticket or a | :11:24. | :11:27. | |
PCN you have done something wrong and there is no need to assault them | :11:28. | :11:33. | |
verbally abuse them. You just need to follow the appeals process. | :11:34. | :11:40. | |
In Peterborough, there are ten enforcement officers. Now they are | :11:41. | :11:45. | |
being kitted out with CCTV cameras attached to their chests. If someone | :11:46. | :11:49. | |
is aggressive, as in this demonstration, they will issue a | :11:50. | :11:52. | |
warning, flicked a switch and start filming. A PCN will be issued in the | :11:53. | :12:00. | |
post. In the past month, for wardens have | :12:01. | :12:04. | |
been assaulted. One was verbally abused, one pushed and two had eggs | :12:05. | :12:09. | |
thrown at them. The council hopes these cameras will cut the number of | :12:10. | :12:13. | |
attacks on their staff. Body cams like these are used increasingly by | :12:14. | :12:19. | |
councils and police forces. In Essex, officers wear them to | :12:20. | :12:23. | |
incidents of domestic abuse to record accurately what is said. | :12:24. | :12:27. | |
Another police force is trialling WebCams after someone died in | :12:28. | :12:33. | |
custody. It is said there has to be a balance to the public 's right to | :12:34. | :12:38. | |
privacy or so. In Peterborough, evidence can be passed to police but | :12:39. | :12:44. | |
they hope the cameras will act as deterrents soap traffic wardens can | :12:45. | :12:45. | |
do their jobs in peace. The National Bowl in Milton Keynes | :12:46. | :12:50. | |
looks set to be transformed into an indoor water park and sports village | :12:51. | :12:54. | |
at a cost of ?26 million. It's the first major scheme earmarked for the | :12:55. | :12:57. | |
concert venue which was built in 1973. The Milton Keynes Development | :12:58. | :13:00. | |
Partnership has granted More`rye Capital as its preferred bidder for | :13:01. | :13:02. | |
the work. Those are the top stories. Katherine | :13:03. | :13:12. | |
will be here just after ten with the late headlines. Now, over to Stewart | :13:13. | :13:13. | |
and Susie. those responsible for Terry | :13:14. | :13:16. | |
McSpadden's Beth. `` death. | :13:17. | :13:30. | |
Still to come, we have just had one of the mildest winters on record. | :13:31. | :13:35. | |
That is bad news for the trader who has stocked up with everything you | :13:36. | :13:43. | |
need for cold weather. Next tonight, a vicar, a pop star and the | :13:44. | :13:47. | |
First World War. Do you remember this? | :13:48. | :14:10. | |
There Yes, that was the Communards from the eighties. Jimmy Somerville, | :14:11. | :14:13. | |
of course, and on the keyboards, Richard Coles. These days the | :14:14. | :14:16. | |
Reverend Richard Coles is a vicar and broadcaster. For tonight's World | :14:17. | :14:19. | |
War One at Home series, Richard came in to tell me about a fellow vicar | :14:20. | :14:23. | |
from Northamptonshire who won The Victoria Cross. Bernard Vann went | :14:24. | :14:26. | |
from being a man of the cloth, to a man of war. | :14:27. | :14:31. | |
How interesting if you find it, following in this priest's | :14:32. | :14:35. | |
footsteps, when you have so many similarities in your background? I | :14:36. | :14:42. | |
was completely fascinated. He is someone I can identify with, | :14:43. | :14:46. | |
although First World War. Do you remember | :14:47. | :15:55. | |
this? We are trying to get a feel for what he did here. Imagine it, | :15:56. | :16:03. | |
dense fog, he has to get his men across this canal anyway he can. To | :16:04. | :16:20. | |
dry them back. This is where he won his Victoria Cross. He fought and to | :16:21. | :16:26. | |
hand combat. He did see the whites of their eyes as he took their | :16:27. | :16:32. | |
lives. It is very intense, very personal. He is actually killing. He | :16:33. | :16:42. | |
becomes a killing machine. He shoots the Germans, and shows a marvellous | :16:43. | :16:49. | |
example and drive the whole line forward, and for that he gets The | :16:50. | :16:56. | |
Victoria Cross. He never got to receive it. Just weeks before the | :16:57. | :17:01. | |
end of the war, he was killed by a German sniper. It was just before | :17:02. | :17:06. | |
sunrise he fell, shot through the heart. He would never return to his | :17:07. | :17:11. | |
beloved wife, never see his son she was carrying. Just three miles away | :17:12. | :17:17. | |
is the British centre where I find his grave. According to his | :17:18. | :17:23. | |
obituary, he never forgot he was a priest of God. | :17:24. | :17:37. | |
A great priest who pleased God. In some ways I feel quite close to him. | :17:38. | :17:40. | |
We are both priest 's, we come from the same place, but in other ways I | :17:41. | :17:46. | |
cannot imagine what it must have been like to have led his men in | :17:47. | :17:50. | |
battle so heroically full is all I feel close to him again. In the | :17:51. | :17:54. | |
cemetery as he lies alongside his fallen comrades. It reminds us that | :17:55. | :18:00. | |
we all come to the same place. The souls of the righteous are in the | :18:01. | :18:11. | |
hands of God. Such an interesting story, but it | :18:12. | :18:15. | |
begs the question of how a man of the cloth would go and kill people, | :18:16. | :18:22. | |
literally, up to their eyes. It is hard to imagine how that happens. | :18:23. | :18:27. | |
Lots of warrior Christians in history. Whenever people content for | :18:28. | :18:33. | |
things, conflicts emerge and people get drawn into it. Perhaps they | :18:34. | :18:38. | |
discover themselves not to be the person they. They were. He probably | :18:39. | :18:46. | |
thought he was doing God's work. It takes a huge effort to imagine what | :18:47. | :18:50. | |
it must be like to raise a weapon as a priest and shoot and kill people. | :18:51. | :18:55. | |
I hope I do not find out what that feels like. Extraordinary to think | :18:56. | :19:02. | |
he was only 31 when he died. He lived such an enormous life in such | :19:03. | :19:08. | |
extraordinary circumstances. So many of those stories ended in that | :19:09. | :19:13. | |
church. Many of these young guys 18, 19, 20. You said you learn so much | :19:14. | :19:20. | |
by following one person's story. What do you take away from this? The | :19:21. | :19:25. | |
extraordinary tragic cost of the war, so many people cut down before | :19:26. | :19:31. | |
they really got going and it is terribly sad. People discovering | :19:32. | :19:38. | |
themselves not to be the people they. They were. I do not think | :19:39. | :19:54. | |
anything was the same. Thank you. Tomorrow, the tragic story of a | :19:55. | :19:58. | |
school in Norfolk and how 100 boys lost their lives in the war. Their | :19:59. | :20:02. | |
headmaster died soon after the war was over, it was said of the broken | :20:03. | :20:09. | |
heart. One of our universities received an | :20:10. | :20:13. | |
award for the tree surgeons of the sexual exploitation of children. The | :20:14. | :20:19. | |
University of Bedfordshire collected the Queens anniversary prize at | :20:20. | :20:23. | |
Buckingham Palace, the highest award available in higher education, and | :20:24. | :20:26. | |
reflects the growing problem of the sexual abuse of children often by | :20:27. | :20:30. | |
organised gangs and involving human trafficking. | :20:31. | :20:36. | |
We were driving through an area and we saw an opposite gang and they | :20:37. | :20:43. | |
were waving a gun at us. I was thinking, this is my life going to | :20:44. | :20:48. | |
be over. The tag line, it is wrong, but you get used to it, young women | :20:49. | :20:57. | |
talking about the fear and entrapment within gangs. Filmed the | :20:58. | :21:03. | |
complimentary University of Bedfordshire's ground`breaking | :21:04. | :21:05. | |
research into child sexual exploitation, violence and | :21:06. | :21:10. | |
trafficking. Today, at Buckingham Palace, awarded the anniversary | :21:11. | :21:15. | |
prize for further and higher education, the highest accolade | :21:16. | :21:20. | |
possible. We want to make some difference. We do not want to do the | :21:21. | :21:25. | |
search that sits on book shelves. We want to make a difference with | :21:26. | :21:29. | |
practitioners and policymakers. In the heart of Luton, the hub of | :21:30. | :21:34. | |
nationally important work into child sexual exploitation. The royal | :21:35. | :21:38. | |
anniversary trust described the work as exceptional and distinctive. Last | :21:39. | :21:47. | |
week, sentencing of two men, three teenagers, after the horrific sexual | :21:48. | :21:50. | |
abuse of five girls from Peter Brussels up another story on the | :21:51. | :21:57. | |
television, another tragic loss of innocence, proves there will always | :21:58. | :22:04. | |
be more to do. The destination has not been reached. This is a lovely | :22:05. | :22:08. | |
station to have passed through, but it is not a case of job done. The | :22:09. | :22:14. | |
University of Bedfordshire's work has influenced change and policy, | :22:15. | :22:17. | |
bettering the lives of young people like these. | :22:18. | :22:23. | |
It has been confirmed this winter has been one of the warmest in the | :22:24. | :22:28. | |
last 100 years, it has also been the wettest on record. The mild weather | :22:29. | :22:33. | |
has been good news if you dread snow and ice, but not so good for many | :22:34. | :22:45. | |
traders and companies. Last winter cold and snowy, this | :22:46. | :22:49. | |
winter mild and wet, it is a change that has caught many retailers. | :22:50. | :23:00. | |
Kevin and his son run a car park business with 45 shops across the | :23:01. | :23:07. | |
region. There might have a glut of stop including 100 pallets of | :23:08. | :23:12. | |
de`icer. Sales are down by ?250,000. The warehouse is bulging. Sledges, | :23:13. | :23:19. | |
snow shovels, all kinds of products. Not only that, if it is | :23:20. | :23:27. | |
wet, people do not come out unless they have to. The warm weather has | :23:28. | :23:33. | |
had us turning down the heating. This company supplies customers with | :23:34. | :23:39. | |
domestic heating oil from Norfolk. Demand has dropped about 25% on last | :23:40. | :23:47. | |
winter. It was a cold winter. Very wet this year. Not so much demand. | :23:48. | :23:54. | |
Every cloud has a silver lining. At this umbrella shop, they design and | :23:55. | :24:01. | |
supplies 700 types of umbrella. Sales are 50% higher than normal. If | :24:02. | :24:10. | |
it rains for one day we get areas enable interest `` a reasonable | :24:11. | :24:14. | |
increase in sales. It is as if everybody goes home and says, that | :24:15. | :24:21. | |
is it, I am getting an umbrella. They have not given up hope of | :24:22. | :24:26. | |
selling their stock, sledges do not have a best before date. Let's hope | :24:27. | :24:34. | |
it is going to sit there for a long time. I don't mean that in a | :24:35. | :24:39. | |
business sense. It is going to get quite cold tonight. Today's weather | :24:40. | :24:44. | |
has brought us all sorts. Rain first thing. Then the sunshine. And then | :24:45. | :24:51. | |
showers. Much of these showers have now cleared out into the North Sea. | :24:52. | :24:55. | |
For parts of ethics and Sussex, there are still a few around. They | :24:56. | :24:59. | |
will take time to clear away. The first part of the night looks | :25:00. | :25:04. | |
relatively calm. Overnight it will get chilly. Cold enough for Frost | :25:05. | :25:12. | |
and icy patches. For the second half of the night, it starts to change. | :25:13. | :25:17. | |
We have been closely following this area of low pressure. There was some | :25:18. | :25:22. | |
uncertainty about the track of it. As it moves in overnight, it is | :25:23. | :25:25. | |
expected to bring us here in the East mainly rain. There may be | :25:26. | :25:31. | |
something wintry across counties like Bedfordshire, Buckinghamshire | :25:32. | :25:35. | |
and Hertfordshire. Heavy rain later tonight from most. This is really | :25:36. | :25:38. | |
going to set the scene for not the best of the day is tomorrow. `` | :25:39. | :25:46. | |
days. It is miserable, cold and wet. Into tomorrow morning. Outbreaks of | :25:47. | :25:49. | |
rain. Some could be on the heavy side. It will clear into the | :25:50. | :25:52. | |
afternoon and we'll see some showers. Not the best of days. The | :25:53. | :25:59. | |
winds picking up as well. Quite a cold day. Six or seven degrees. The | :26:00. | :26:05. | |
low is not really in a rush to go anywhere. It will hang on through | :26:06. | :26:11. | |
much of the afternoon. It is an improving picture through Saturday. | :26:12. | :26:15. | |
Although it may be cloudy and wet to start the weekend, it will gradually | :26:16. | :26:19. | |
improve. Then we have got the next low lining up. That will bring rain | :26:20. | :26:24. | |
but not until much later on Sunday. Much of Sunday does log drive. It | :26:25. | :26:27. | |
will stay quite cold by day. Still the risk of some frost. It looks | :26:28. | :26:39. | |
brighter on Sunday. The weather front gradually clearing away. | :26:40. | :26:42. | |
Sunshine on Sunday before the next low brings rain on Sunday night. An | :26:43. | :26:46. | |
unsettled start to next week. The winds picking up. A quick tap of | :26:47. | :26:50. | |
your barometer will give tonight's reading. 29.68 inches. Was it on | :26:51. | :27:03. | |
Tuesday when you said that spring was here? Yes! Goodbye. | :27:04. | :27:08. |
