with Mary Rhodes and Nick Owen. The headlines tonight: free food to help | :00:09. | :00:14. | |
families in areas where half the children are said to be growing up | :00:14. | :00:22. | |
in poverty. We will deliver 2500 males over a number of sites. | :00:22. | :00:29. | |
will ask if a free holiday kitchen is necessary? New cattle control | :00:29. | :00:33. | |
measures to tackle the spread of bovine TB. | :00:33. | :00:38. | |
How serial ex-offenders are helping young criminals steer a part away | :00:38. | :00:44. | |
from crime. �24 million to be spent on cycle | :00:44. | :00:50. | |
routes in Birmingham. We are the worst of the big cities outside of | :00:50. | :00:55. | |
London for cycling. And we have had the sun the rainbow look up to the | :00:55. | :00:59. | |
skies and you may get more than you bargained for. All be detailed in a | :00:59. | :01:09. | |
:01:09. | :01:16. | ||
short while. Every other child is being brought up in poverty | :01:16. | :01:20. | |
according to figures. A new scheme was launched today to help families | :01:20. | :01:25. | |
struggling to feed their children. Those providing it so providing | :01:25. | :01:31. | |
meals can push hard budgets to breaking point. | :01:31. | :01:36. | |
It is being called B food back by some, a soup kitchen by others but | :01:36. | :01:40. | |
organisers of this food service are calling it a holiday kitchen. The | :01:40. | :01:43. | |
aim is to ensure children get a decent meals during the school | :01:43. | :01:49. | |
holidays. As you can see, it is nothing like a soup kitchen. Over | :01:50. | :01:56. | |
the course of this week, 250 meals will be given out. As well as the | :01:56. | :02:04. | |
meals, children get the chance to learn about nutrition and nature. | :02:04. | :02:09. | |
Food poverty means children are not getting the nutrition they need, it | :02:09. | :02:12. | |
affects their concentration, their ability to learn and it has wider | :02:12. | :02:21. | |
economic problems along the line. This working mum is one of those to | :02:21. | :02:27. | |
benefit. The kids are quite happy here and eating. Everything costs | :02:27. | :02:33. | |
dearly nowadays. I have four children. It is hard to pay the | :02:33. | :02:40. | |
bills. At nearby shops, most people backed the scheme although there | :02:40. | :02:46. | |
were concerns. If you genuinely need help, fine, but more children, more | :02:46. | :02:54. | |
burden to people. If it needs looking after, it needs looking | :02:54. | :03:01. | |
after. A six-week holiday is quite a bit collar day so extra money, costs | :03:01. | :03:08. | |
for people who cannot afford it. big families seem to be raking in | :03:08. | :03:16. | |
everything and those with a couple of children get nothing. It is about | :03:16. | :03:21. | |
the distribution of wealth not the size of the family. The pilot runs | :03:21. | :03:27. | |
for the next three weeks. I am joined by Amanda Nicholls from | :03:27. | :03:36. | |
the Accord Group. How widespread is this problem? Extremely widespread, | :03:36. | :03:44. | |
particularly across Birmingham for the main part. Some of those set in | :03:44. | :03:49. | |
the most deprived wards not just in Birmingham but across the country. | :03:49. | :03:55. | |
Certainly in the top 10% of those most deprived. Is it possible to say | :03:55. | :04:04. | |
what the source of this problem is? I think it is a combination of | :04:04. | :04:11. | |
factors. There is no doubt that they will be impacts arising from benefit | :04:11. | :04:17. | |
changes, as well as issues of high levels of unemployment in the area. | :04:17. | :04:25. | |
Who is funding the programme? successfully made a bid to | :04:25. | :04:31. | |
children's charity children in need and manage to get 27 thousand �500 | :04:31. | :04:39. | |
which has funded the programme and will enable us to get 2500 meals out | :04:39. | :04:46. | |
there into the community. We are doing that in partnership with a | :04:46. | :04:50. | |
number of community agencies so it has presented an opportunity to | :04:50. | :05:00. | |
:05:00. | :05:02. | ||
bring communities together. 27 -- 27 �500 not an insurmountable amount of | :05:02. | :05:11. | |
cash. How will you ensure those that need it will get help? They are | :05:11. | :05:16. | |
people that ordinarily would have had access to free school meals so | :05:16. | :05:22. | |
clearly there is a gap there in terms of provision. We know only too | :05:22. | :05:27. | |
well how expensive it can be for families to entertain children but | :05:27. | :05:33. | |
what this has done is its has allowed us to provide creative play | :05:33. | :05:37. | |
activities combined with the provision of nutritious meals. | :05:37. | :05:43. | |
Thank you. Coming up later in the programme: | :05:44. | :05:47. | |
Bon voyage! Sports clubs sharing �2 million as part of the Olympic | :05:47. | :05:52. | |
legacy. Any day now Gloucestershire farmers | :05:52. | :05:56. | |
will be given the final go-ahead for a badger cull to control the spread | :05:56. | :06:00. | |
of bovine TB, the first large scale cull for decades. But the disease | :06:00. | :06:04. | |
isn't just spread by badgers. It also spreads from cow to cow and to | :06:04. | :06:06. | |
tackle that, the government has unveiled new cattle control measures | :06:06. | :06:09. | |
today. I'm joined in the studio by our Rural Affairs Correspondent | :06:09. | :06:17. | |
David Gregory-Kumar. David, what has the government announced? This is a | :06:17. | :06:21. | |
move to control the disease spreading in cattle and the Midlands | :06:21. | :06:27. | |
is a bit of a lost cause. It is in our homes, badgers, in other | :06:27. | :06:33. | |
animals. This is about what is going on at the edge of the infected | :06:33. | :06:39. | |
zone. The government wants farmers to do more to stop the disease | :06:39. | :06:46. | |
spreading to TB free parts of the country. Because of allowing TB to | :06:46. | :06:51. | |
spread are much more and if we are going to stop this disease, we have | :06:51. | :06:56. | |
to do everything that is available to us and that includes taking a | :06:56. | :07:00. | |
rather more rigorous view of how we stop the disease expanding at the | :07:00. | :07:07. | |
rate it has been doing. But the farmers who are having to pay extra | :07:07. | :07:14. | |
for this in Warwickshire, they will not be able to Carl badgers. Concern | :07:14. | :07:20. | |
have come from groups opposing the Carl but there will be enough people | :07:20. | :07:30. | |
to check how humane it will be in Gloucestershire. Also there will | :07:30. | :07:38. | |
only be 100 or so badgers autopsied after the Carl and there will be | :07:38. | :07:41. | |
thousands of badgers killed. Pupils who oppose the course so it will not | :07:42. | :07:49. | |
be enough to see if it will be humane. At the moment, farmers are | :07:49. | :07:57. | |
still very busy. Once we get beyond hard this, then there is a narrowing | :07:57. | :08:03. | |
window of opportunity. It is likely the cull will happen once harvest is | :08:03. | :08:10. | |
over. Two men have been arrested and | :08:10. | :08:13. | |
bailed following a shooting in Birmingham which has left another | :08:13. | :08:16. | |
man in a critical condition in hospital. The 35-year-old was shot | :08:16. | :08:19. | |
outside the Rainbow Warehouse on Digbeth High Street just before | :08:19. | :08:21. | |
midnight on Saturday. Officers believe it was a targeted attack and | :08:22. | :08:25. | |
they're appealing for witnesses. A 72-year-old pensioner - hit with a | :08:25. | :08:30. | |
metal bar at a pub near Walsall - has had to have surgery for a broken | :08:30. | :08:33. | |
jaw. Emergency services were called to the Three Tuns in Willenhall on | :08:33. | :08:37. | |
Saturday. A woman in her early 20s received a cut to her head. Police | :08:37. | :08:42. | |
believe the attacks were unprovoked. Police in Gloucestershire have begun | :08:42. | :08:45. | |
a crackdown on pubs where glasses are used as a weapon by drinkers. | :08:45. | :08:48. | |
Landlords are being told to take immediate action following glass | :08:48. | :08:52. | |
attacks. If it happens again within a year, officers can request the | :08:52. | :08:55. | |
pub's licence be revoked. They'll also ask premises to consider using | :08:55. | :09:05. | |
:09:05. | :09:06. | ||
plastic glasses instead. They do not break and do not cause injury and | :09:06. | :09:12. | |
for the licensee, they do not have glass to keep up -- clear up and | :09:12. | :09:18. | |
they lost a long time. Serial ex-offenders are helping | :09:18. | :09:23. | |
steer young offenders away from crime, a new scheme is already | :09:23. | :09:28. | |
showing success. Involves getting ex-offenders to act as role models | :09:28. | :09:34. | |
for people released from prison. The year-long project is on the way in | :09:34. | :09:36. | |
Solihull. A robbery in progress. It is a | :09:36. | :09:42. | |
sobering fact that 25,000 crimes are committed across the West Midlands | :09:42. | :09:46. | |
every month and the majority of culprits will have offended before. | :09:46. | :09:52. | |
Meet Nikki and John, two men who have committed around 200 offences | :09:52. | :09:55. | |
around them. Now one is helping the other stay on the straight and | :09:55. | :10:01. | |
narrow. The support, the encouragement from people that have | :10:01. | :10:11. | |
been in my position helps bridge a gap to help me reintegrate into | :10:11. | :10:17. | |
society. Prison has spent a home for John on and off since he left | :10:17. | :10:22. | |
school. Institutionalised he did not know he could lead a normal life on | :10:22. | :10:32. | |
:10:32. | :10:34. | ||
the outside until he spoke to someone who had. It is all thanks to | :10:34. | :10:41. | |
a partnership between the social enterprise changes UK and Solihull | :10:41. | :10:47. | |
services. We have a high success rate and people are no longer | :10:47. | :10:51. | |
sending or taking drugs or alcohol and living in the communities they | :10:51. | :10:56. | |
came from. It is exactly what the government wants. Recent proposals | :10:56. | :11:06. | |
to overhaul the probation service... In 2010, almost half of | :11:06. | :11:09. | |
all offenders released reoffended within 12 months. This scheme may | :11:09. | :11:16. | |
help reduced those numbers but is also helping change lives for the | :11:16. | :11:26. | |
:11:26. | :11:28. | ||
better. For once I felt safe and sane. I don't do it and that is what | :11:28. | :11:34. | |
they wanted to figure out how to do. Tackling reoffending is key to | :11:34. | :11:37. | |
reducing crime with continued success, this scheme could be | :11:37. | :11:47. | |
:11:47. | :11:54. | ||
extended across the region. Our top story tonight: Your detailed | :11:54. | :11:56. | |
weather forecast to come shortly from Shefali. | :11:56. | :11:59. | |
Also in tonight's programme: Four priceless goals as a rampant Wolves | :11:59. | :12:02. | |
put down a marker for their promotion challenge this season. | :12:02. | :12:06. | |
And a new film remembering Ralph who died in the First World War after | :12:06. | :12:13. | |
signing up in Gloucestershire when he was only 15. | :12:13. | :12:16. | |
�24 million pounds is to be spent in Birmingham to improve cycle routes | :12:17. | :12:20. | |
over the next few years. �17 million has come from the government. It's | :12:20. | :12:24. | |
hoped that in 20 years time, one in ten of all journeys into the city | :12:24. | :12:30. | |
will be made by bike. Sarah Falkland reports. | :12:30. | :12:34. | |
Outside of London, Birmingham is rated the worst city in the country | :12:34. | :12:40. | |
for cyclistss. I can see why. Congested, commuter roads clogged | :12:40. | :12:47. | |
with cars, there is not much room for hikes. What a nightmare. But �24 | :12:47. | :12:53. | |
million could change all that. of that money will go on | :12:53. | :12:56. | |
infrastructure, getting all the routes right and getting the city | :12:56. | :13:03. | |
centre right to enhance flow. 1% of people in Birmingham cycle to | :13:03. | :13:08. | |
work. This group are glad they have chosen form of transport is getting | :13:08. | :13:13. | |
backing. In the past, some of these services have not really been great | :13:13. | :13:20. | |
for rests so with this money being announced today, it is great. | :13:20. | :13:28. | |
great to see cycling being taken seriously. But should we not all be | :13:28. | :13:34. | |
pleased? BT have �2.3 billion lost due to congestion in Birmingham so | :13:34. | :13:38. | |
to be able to utilise cycle routes it means it is better for the | :13:38. | :13:44. | |
economy and people 's health and well-being. With Birmingham being | :13:44. | :13:48. | |
the second worst city in the country for air pollution, anything that | :13:48. | :13:53. | |
takes cars off the roads will please the environmentalists but in | :13:53. | :13:57. | |
Stafford, new cycling routes are being abused. The council warns that | :13:57. | :14:04. | |
if people persist in parking over them, the police will be called. | :14:04. | :14:08. | |
Work will start almost immediately and the city built for cars could | :14:08. | :14:18. | |
:14:18. | :14:20. | ||
have a future as a city for bikes. Sarah is in Cannon Hill Park for us. | :14:20. | :14:25. | |
Quite an interesting route earlier. Presumably this is being welcomed by | :14:25. | :14:31. | |
cyclist all over? Yes, people are pretty chuffed. I am cycling home | :14:31. | :14:41. | |
with Dan. Dan works for bike rite which is an organisation which | :14:41. | :14:50. | |
offers free training and advice for cyclistss. There is a lack of | :14:50. | :14:56. | |
awareness of what the cycle lanes are there for. This money invested, | :14:56. | :15:02. | |
too little too late? It is definitely the start of a process | :15:02. | :15:09. | |
not the end of one. We want to make cycling as popular a mode of | :15:09. | :15:15. | |
transport as it can be. Going through Birmingham was daunting. | :15:15. | :15:22. | |
What advice would you give to cyclistss going into the city? | :15:22. | :15:27. | |
Consider alternative routes. If you can look around for quiet routes | :15:27. | :15:35. | |
such as this you can find them into city centres. Ride defensively, make | :15:35. | :15:40. | |
sure you are seen and see motoristss around you. The council | :15:40. | :15:47. | |
said we are not going to become Holland overnight. What is it like | :15:47. | :15:54. | |
in Holland and? Around 30% in Holland. How does it compare with | :15:54. | :16:01. | |
other UK cities? In Bristol it is 3%. But it is a long, steep road | :16:01. | :16:11. | |
:16:11. | :16:15. | ||
ahead. Onto football and Wolves and | :16:15. | :16:19. | |
Coventry City both got their first wins of the league season at the | :16:19. | :16:21. | |
weekend but in front of vastly different crowds. While 19,000 | :16:22. | :16:24. | |
watched Wolves, just over 2,000 supporters were at Coventry's game | :16:24. | :16:27. | |
in the continuing row over their move to Northampton. Nick Clitheroe | :16:27. | :16:35. | |
reports. And inspirational tribute to a club | :16:35. | :16:40. | |
legend. Whats players paid their respects for former winger Dave | :16:40. | :16:44. | |
Wagstaffe before kick-off and it seemed to inspire the young | :16:44. | :16:48. | |
generation as Leigh Griffiths put them in front against Gillingham. | :16:48. | :16:55. | |
This is a young fors side and Lee Evans gave evidence of his potential | :16:55. | :17:00. | |
with the second. Griffiths scored again. Their first win of the | :17:00. | :17:06. | |
season. The squad is young but it is a transition period, that is needed | :17:06. | :17:12. | |
after the last couple of seasons and this tragedy should has to turn into | :17:12. | :17:16. | |
a good performance. Coventry City also won but the atmosphere was | :17:16. | :17:21. | |
different. Just over 2000 fans were at their temporary home in | :17:21. | :17:25. | |
Northampton and half that number were backing visitors Bristol city. | :17:25. | :17:30. | |
Some fans protested outside, 6000 others chose to watch at the Ricoh | :17:30. | :17:38. | |
Arena instead. A vibrant Coventry raced into a 3-goal lead but had to | :17:38. | :17:48. | |
:17:48. | :17:49. | ||
withstand a fightback from Bristol. The next phase is trying to avoid | :17:49. | :17:55. | |
relegation and if we do that this season, these players deserve huge | :17:55. | :18:00. | |
credit. Walsall are still the team of the moment. James Baxendale's | :18:00. | :18:06. | |
goal means both opening games have been won. Birmingham city are off | :18:06. | :18:15. | |
the mark thanks to a common call own goal at Yeovil. And an own goal | :18:15. | :18:19. | |
gifted Burton Albion's first league win of the season with a victory | :18:19. | :18:27. | |
against Rochdale. Did you hear about the Coventry fans who watched the | :18:27. | :18:34. | |
game from the mound outside the hill? Be interesting after that game | :18:34. | :18:38. | |
whether it will encourage more fans to go to the way home games. I think | :18:38. | :18:45. | |
it would. And later this week we'll be looking | :18:46. | :18:49. | |
at the prospects for our three Premier League clubs as the season | :18:49. | :18:52. | |
begins for them. Staying with sport and 35 sports | :18:52. | :18:56. | |
clubs are to benefit from nearly �2 million. The money has been awarded | :18:56. | :18:59. | |
by Sport England to coincide with the first anniversary of the London | :18:59. | :19:04. | |
Olympics closing ceremony. The aim of the funding is to encourage more | :19:04. | :19:14. | |
:19:14. | :19:15. | ||
people to take up a variety of sports, as Ben Sidwell reports. | :19:15. | :19:19. | |
Barnt Green Sailing Club has been around even longer than the modern | :19:19. | :19:24. | |
Olympics themselves and like many sporting clubs, has seen plenty of | :19:24. | :19:30. | |
interest since London 2012. Olympics has encouraged people to do | :19:30. | :19:34. | |
lots of different sports but the success in sailing has encourage | :19:34. | :19:40. | |
people to take up courses like this. They hosted the UK trials here. By | :19:40. | :19:46. | |
some of the club is really starting to show age. Now thanks to �50,000 | :19:46. | :19:51. | |
from a fund inspired by last year 's games, the changing rooms are set to | :19:51. | :19:56. | |
get a make over. We have been waiting to do something but we have | :19:56. | :20:01. | |
not had the capital available to do so. This will just improve | :20:01. | :20:10. | |
everything for the future sailors and running triathlon, fishing club | :20:10. | :20:15. | |
members as well. It is not just Olympic sports benefiting. Dorridge | :20:15. | :20:19. | |
Cricket Club is one of six in the Midlands sharing around �200,000 | :20:19. | :20:28. | |
from the Legacy fund. It is the most tangible evidence they will see of a | :20:28. | :20:33. | |
legacy from the Olympics. We have heard a lot about it, getting it | :20:33. | :20:38. | |
down to grassroots and this is evidence of it. For the last two | :20:38. | :20:44. | |
years it has been an ongoing battle to receive funding. There are such | :20:44. | :20:51. | |
small figures nowadays. This is an �85,000 project and it does not come | :20:51. | :20:56. | |
from a hole that we have got. The hope is with this money, sporting | :20:56. | :21:00. | |
clubs across the Midlands will have a permanent legacy to remember the | :21:00. | :21:05. | |
London games. The story of a Gloucestershire | :21:05. | :21:09. | |
soldier who died in the First World War has been made into a short film | :21:09. | :21:13. | |
by his great great nephew. Ralph Howells was just 15 when he signed | :21:13. | :21:17. | |
up. It's hoped the film of his life will now be chosen to be shown at | :21:17. | :21:21. | |
major film festivals. Steve Knibbs reports. | :21:21. | :21:28. | |
Ralph Howells have worked as a minor but lied about his age to join the | :21:28. | :21:35. | |
Army. He was a month away from his 60th birthday. Congratulations. I | :21:35. | :21:43. | |
will see you in France. This is a personal film. It was written by | :21:43. | :21:49. | |
Ralph Howells's great great-nephew. We met in what was the original | :21:49. | :21:55. | |
family home. My grandmother passed away last May. I always used to | :21:55. | :22:00. | |
speak to her about row. My sister has done lots of projects on him and | :22:00. | :22:07. | |
it is a legacy about his life. film was shot with fellow students | :22:07. | :22:12. | |
as part of Matthews final university project and what helped was finding | :22:12. | :22:18. | |
the right locations including a replica World War I trench. I found | :22:18. | :22:23. | |
someone who worked on warhorse and Time team and he dug a trench in his | :22:24. | :22:28. | |
garden in Surrey and when we went there it was amazing. It was very | :22:28. | :22:33. | |
muddy and we made our actors crawl through the mud, but it was a great | :22:33. | :22:43. | |
experience. We had 50 people on set at the moment. He was my best | :22:43. | :22:51. | |
friend. Although the film cost �2000 to make, it even uses CGI to | :22:51. | :22:56. | |
transform sorry into the Somme. was not being shot out, I was not | :22:56. | :23:04. | |
cold, just being there was kind of upsetting. You just cannot imagine | :23:04. | :23:08. | |
what it was like for them on the front line. It was quite an | :23:08. | :23:14. | |
experience. You lose concentration for one moment, it will be your | :23:14. | :23:22. | |
last. Ralph Howells died a few months after arriving in France in | :23:22. | :23:27. | |
1916. He was digging a trench when he came under attack. Despite a | :23:27. | :23:32. | |
search, his body was never found after an explosion. His sacrifice is | :23:32. | :23:41. | |
remembered here in a memorial at his local church. Ralph has already | :23:41. | :23:46. | |
picked up the Stanley Kubrick award at Matthew's University and he is | :23:46. | :23:50. | |
now pitching it to film festivals before it goes online for the | :23:50. | :24:00. | |
:24:00. | :24:03. | ||
centenary of the First World War next year. | :24:03. | :24:07. | |
Just before the weather, have a look at this. It's a video sent in by | :24:07. | :24:10. | |
Mike Allison taken in a garden centre in Stratford upon Avon a | :24:10. | :24:14. | |
couple of days ago. It's not a hummingbird - although it looks very | :24:14. | :24:17. | |
like one. It is in fact an African Hummingbird Hawk Moth, with a wing | :24:17. | :24:20. | |
span of between five and six centimetres. And while it is | :24:20. | :24:23. | |
spectacular, Butterfly Conservation say it's not actually that unusual | :24:23. | :24:28. | |
to see them in the Midlands. Once spotted, never forgotten. Let's take | :24:28. | :24:34. | |
a look at the weather. It is looking a look at the weather. It is looking | :24:34. | :24:39. | |
nice out there at the moment. Some people escaped with a dry day with | :24:39. | :24:44. | |
plenty of sunshine, others not so lucky. After this it does turn more | :24:44. | :24:53. | |
I'm settled. A mixture of sunshine and showers. And then it is warming | :24:53. | :24:58. | |
up from Wednesday until the weekend. Any showers from today will die out | :24:58. | :25:04. | |
but they will be replaced by showers of a different kind tonight. Those | :25:04. | :25:11. | |
of you holding stargazing parties probably know about this, the meteor | :25:11. | :25:15. | |
showers tonight. Some would say you would have to look to the north-west | :25:15. | :25:21. | |
but that is not true. You can just feel your gaze with as much sky as | :25:21. | :25:25. | |
possible because these will appear randomly. You do need clear skies | :25:25. | :25:30. | |
and the best time to view them will be from midnight until sunrise. The | :25:30. | :25:36. | |
showers from today will die away quickly. The cloud miles away so | :25:36. | :25:41. | |
near perfect conditions for this meteor showers are viewing. | :25:41. | :25:48. | |
Temperatures on the chilly side. In towns and cities, down to ten or 11 | :25:48. | :25:53. | |
Celsius. A fairly decent start to tomorrow but only briefly. | :25:53. | :25:57. | |
Sunshine, dry weather but then the cloud thickens from the West and | :25:57. | :26:03. | |
this will introduce rain through the day. It could be persisted in places | :26:03. | :26:12. | |
and then it becomes patchy through the afternoon. Temperatures to 17 or | :26:12. | :26:17. | |
18 Celsius but the Southwest could scrape by with 20 Celsius. Tomorrow | :26:17. | :26:24. | |
night, a great night for doing these meteor showers. Clear skies, fairly | :26:24. | :26:30. | |
chilly, temperatures of 11 or 12 Celsius. On Wednesday we are into a | :26:30. | :26:35. | |
warm sector. Temperatures rise on Wednesday and Thursday by bringing | :26:35. | :26:39. | |
instability. Let's recap tonight's top stories: | :26:39. | :26:40. | |
Let's recap tonight's top stories: Labour finds itself in hot water | :26:40. | :26:44. | |
after it takes on two of Britain's biggest retailers over jobs for | :26:44. | :26:49. | |
Labour finds itself in hot water And free food for family in areas | :26:49. | :26:56. | |
where half the children are said to be growing up in poverty. | :26:56. | :26:59. | |
Now here's a tale of hope for anybody who's ever lost something | :26:59. | :27:03. | |
valuable. Yes ,the moral of this story is never give up. Richard Ford | :27:03. | :27:07. | |
managed to lose his wedding ring in the River Tame at Tamworth when he | :27:07. | :27:10. | |
was out paddle boarding last month. Undaunted he began the search for it | :27:10. | :27:13. | |
using a plastic bucket with the bottom cut out and replaced with | :27:13. | :27:20. | |
Perspex. After 24 hours scouring the riverbed, more in hope than | :27:20. | :27:26. | |
expectation, it was found by one of his pals, much to Richard's delight. | :27:26. | :27:30. | |
His ecstatic reaction has become a YouTube sensation. No doubt his wife | :27:31. | :27:33. |
