Welcome to South East Today, I'm Natalie Graham. And I'm Rob Smith. | :00:03. | :00:05. | |

and a school evacuated as the army carry out a controlled explosion on | :00:08. | :00:13. | |
a suspect package. It's the second lockdown the city's undergone in | :00:14. | :00:20. | |
three weeks. We're live with the latest. | :00:20. | :00:24. | |

dear person who loved her family, loved her fans, loved was | :00:44. | :00:46. | |
everything to have. Preserving Piper for the people of | :00:46. | :00:50. | |
Sussex. A campaign is launched to keep two of the artist's works on | :00:50. | :00:58. | |
public display in the county. And Canterbury's Red Dean, the | :00:58. | :01:07. | |
Communist Clergyman who was watched by MI5. He met Chairman Mao, Stalin | :01:07. | :01:15. | |
and Fidel Castro. Good evening. Parts of Canterbury, | :01:16. | :01:17. | |
including the Cathedral, were placed under lockdown this | :01:18. | :01:20. | |
afternoon as police dealt with a suspect package for the second time | :01:21. | :01:26. | |
in just three weeks. The package was found in the town centre in | :01:26. | :01:29. | |
Broad Street. People living in an area 100 metres around the site | :01:29. | :01:34. | |
were told to leave and a primary school nearby was also evacuated. | :01:34. | :01:36. | |
The army's bomb disposal squad carried out a controlled explosion | :01:36. | :01:46. | |
this afternoon. Rebecca Barry is in Canterbury. What's happening now? | :01:46. | :01:50. | |
Right now, just behind this police cordon at the end of the street, | :01:50. | :01:54. | |
forensic work is being carried out on the remains of the suspect | :01:54. | :01:58. | |
package. Tonight, police are refusing to rule out whether this | :01:58. | :02:04. | |
is linked to their recent bomb scares, as Simon report. | :02:05. | :02:07. | |
Another security alert in Canterbury. More worry for those | :02:07. | :02:11. | |
caught up in the drama. I got a phone call about 10 minutes ago | :02:11. | :02:16. | |
from my daughter saying there had been a bomb scare downtown. My wife | :02:16. | :02:20. | |
called her school and we were told that it was in the same street as | :02:20. | :02:23. | |
the school. We jumped in the car with my wife and baby, got down as | :02:24. | :02:28. | |
quickly as we have got, I have run for five minutes to get here and | :02:28. | :02:35. | |
pick up. We work in the surgery, they have just evacuated all the | :02:35. | :02:39. | |
fuss people from Broad Street. was an off-duty police officer who | :02:39. | :02:42. | |
spotted the suspicious device. Some residents have been unable to | :02:43. | :02:50. | |
return home. I had gone to take my sister-in-law to the chemist, the | :02:50. | :02:57. | |
doctor, and when I got back, the road was blocked. They told me that | :02:57. | :03:03. | |
there was a package. And that I would have to stay outside the area | :03:03. | :03:08. | |
for all while. Four or while, people. From going into Canterbury | :03:08. | :03:16. | |
Cathedral here, and those already there were given the option to | :03:16. | :03:20. | |
evacuate. It was at the end of last month at Canterbury city centre was | :03:20. | :03:25. | |
brought to a standstill by to elaborate hoax devices, one on a | :03:25. | :03:28. | |
lark -- railway line and one in a shop. Police have released pictures | :03:28. | :03:33. | |
of a man they want to speak to. They say it is too early to know | :03:33. | :03:39. | |
whether today's events were linked to that night. | :03:39. | :03:43. | |
This is the primary school that was evacuated this afternoon. You can | :03:43. | :03:48. | |
see just how close it is to the police cordon. At 4pm, we were all | :03:48. | :03:53. | |
ushered into the playground as we are had allowed bang. It was the | :03:53. | :03:57. | |
army carrying out a controlled explosion. Meanwhile residents were | :03:57. | :04:01. | |
becoming very frustrated at not being allowed home, so this evening, | :04:01. | :04:05. | |
a nearby hall has been opened to put people up for the evening. | :04:05. | :04:08. | |
Now some breaking news, and plans have been revealed to apparently | :04:08. | :04:10. | |
downgrade the coronary care unit at the Eastbourne District General | :04:10. | :04:14. | |
hospital. The facility acts as an emergency unit for heart attacks. | :04:14. | :04:16. | |
Local MP Stephen Lloyd has described the news as completely | :04:16. | :04:20. | |
bewildering. Let's go live to our political editor Louise Stewart. | :04:20. | :04:28. | |
Louise, many people will be worried by the news. | :04:28. | :04:34. | |
Yes, Stephen Lloyd described it as a bolt out of the blue. He is very | :04:34. | :04:37. | |
concerned about the proposed changes. In a statement NHS Sussex | :04:37. | :04:41. | |
said they would be retaining 24 hour cardiology services in | :04:41. | :04:46. | |
Brighton, and they are aiming towards offering 24 hour cardiology | :04:46. | :04:53. | |
services at the Hastings hospital. But they say that the service at | :04:53. | :04:56. | |
the Eastbourne District General Hospital will be a daytime only | :04:56. | :05:02. | |
service from 8pm -- 8am to 5pm. am surprised by this announcement, | :05:02. | :05:06. | |
and it is from the Health Commission, not the trust itself. | :05:06. | :05:10. | |
We have more cardiologists in Eastbourne, we have got the largest | :05:10. | :05:18. | |
population in Eastbourne, and equally, it has two Catalans | :05:18. | :05:25. | |
compared to one in Hastings. I am very surprised. He says effectively, | :05:25. | :05:30. | |
it is a downgrading of the services at Eastbourne, and this comes after | :05:30. | :05:34. | |
a long-running MP by Stephen Lloyd and the MP for Hastings who fought | :05:34. | :05:39. | |
to retain Conservative -- maternity services at both sites. Stephen | :05:39. | :05:44. | |
Lloyd says he will fight equally hard to retain the emergency heart | :05:44. | :05:47. | |
attack services in Eastbourne. In a moment: | :05:47. | :05:50. | |
Setting us back �80,000. The badgers being moved at public | :05:50. | :06:00. | |
:06:00. | :06:03. | ||
expense because they're ruining The estranged husband of a woman | :06:03. | :06:06. | |
killed in a house fire in Chatham has appeared in court charged with | :06:06. | :06:09. | |
her murder. Melissa Crook and her 15 month old son died on Saturday | :06:09. | :06:13. | |
morning after flames ripped through their terraced home. A 35 year old | :06:13. | :06:16. | |
Maidstone man has also been charged with the killings. Melissa's father | :06:16. | :06:19. | |
and brother both remain in hospital with serious injuries. Jon Hunt | :06:19. | :06:26. | |
reports. News of the fire that killed a | :06:26. | :06:31. | |
young mother and her 15 month-old son is still reverberating around | :06:31. | :06:33. | |
Chatham. Melissa Crook and her family were clearly well known to | :06:33. | :06:37. | |
people in the area. From shopkeepers to the postman, four | :06:37. | :06:40. | |
days since this tragedy, people locally are still talking about | :06:40. | :06:44. | |
what happened here. Today significant developments were at | :06:44. | :06:49. | |
the local courthouse when Melissa Crook's estranged husband stood | :06:49. | :06:53. | |
before magistrates charged with his murder -- her murder. But the 23 | :06:53. | :07:03. | |
year-old was not alone. 35 year-old -- a 35 year-old man also stands | :07:03. | :07:07. | |
accused of the States -- same cry a. During two separate hearings this | :07:07. | :07:13. | |
morning, both men stood as the charges were read out. One of them | :07:13. | :07:16. | |
was held by a Kurdish interpreter. They spoke to confirm their | :07:16. | :07:21. | |
identities, names addresses and date of birth, before magistrates | :07:21. | :07:24. | |
transferred their cases to the Crown Court. Both men were remanded | :07:24. | :07:29. | |
in custody. The fire did not just kill a young woman and her baby, it | :07:30. | :07:36. | |
led to Melissa Crook's family being seriously injured as well. So the | :07:36. | :07:40. | |
defendants were also charged with the attempted murder of her mother, | :07:40. | :07:46. | |
father and brother. Her father is still in hospital after suffering | :07:46. | :07:50. | |
serious burns. Neither defendant entered a plea. The case was | :07:50. | :07:54. | |
adjourned until Friday. Police are still questioning a 21 year-old | :07:54. | :07:57. | |
woman some commentary and a 37 year-old man from the same town has | :07:57. | :08:03. | |
been replaced -- released on police bail. | :08:03. | :08:07. | |
What other developments have there been? Police say that Melissa | :08:07. | :08:10. | |
Crook's mother and brother had been discharged from hospital after | :08:10. | :08:15. | |
being treated for their injuries. Unfortunately, 49 year-old Mark, | :08:15. | :08:21. | |
her father, is still seriously ill, in a life-threatening condition, at | :08:21. | :08:26. | |
the Queen Victoria Hospital after suffering severe burns in the fire. | :08:26. | :08:29. | |
Mitch Winehouse, the father of the singer Amy Winehouse, who died in | :08:29. | :08:32. | |
July, has been speaking about his daughter and the foundation he has | :08:32. | :08:36. | |
set up in her name. In her career she won 23 major awards, including | :08:36. | :08:40. | |
a BRIT, five Grammys and three Ivor Novello awards. Her album, Back to | :08:40. | :08:43. | |
Black, is now the biggest selling record of the 21st century in the | :08:43. | :08:47. | |
UK and in total she's sold nearly 4 million albums. Ria Chatterjee | :08:47. | :08:50. | |
reports on how Mitch Winehouse, who lives in Greenhithe in Kent, is | :08:50. | :09:00. | |
:09:00. | :09:05. | ||
hoping to help other families In the days and weeks after her | :09:05. | :09:11. | |
death, millions paid tribute to this voice. And today, or what | :09:11. | :09:16. | |
would have been her 20th birthday, we seek a knee in her element once | :09:16. | :09:21. | |
more. One of her last recordings, with legend Tony Bennett. Mitch | :09:21. | :09:26. | |
Winehouse has been lobbying the government on drugs rehabilitation. | :09:26. | :09:29. | |
He hopes the Amy Winehouse Foundation will help people | :09:29. | :09:33. | |
struggling with addiction. I hope for the foundation is that through | :09:33. | :09:37. | |
her name, we will be able to help thousands of people in all | :09:37. | :09:44. | |
different ways. As a lobbying group, my main aim would be to change the | :09:44. | :09:49. | |
way that the NHS of treating people who are addicted, either through | :09:50. | :09:59. | |
:10:00. | :10:02. | ||
drugs or alcohol. They are being Amy Winehouse's style and sound | :10:02. | :10:12. | |
:10:12. | :10:13. | ||
brought her worldwide fame and attention. But soon, we were | :10:13. | :10:18. | |
hearing more and more about her addictions. Even though, by the | :10:18. | :10:22. | |
time of her death, Mitch says she was clean of illegal drugs. Some | :10:22. | :10:26. | |
people might argue that you could choose to be a drug addict. Some | :10:26. | :10:31. | |
people come from such drastic circumstances that are their only | :10:31. | :10:37. | |
recourse is to take drugs. As harsh as it sounds, for some people, it | :10:37. | :10:40. | |
is their only recourse. What is the difference between someone like | :10:40. | :10:44. | |
that, and someone suffering with cancer? They need help and they are | :10:44. | :10:48. | |
not getting any help. He was in New York when he heard the news of his | :10:48. | :10:53. | |
daughter's death. The reaction from her fans, an indication of her | :10:53. | :10:58. | |
popularity and talent. With all the frailties she had, she was a great | :10:58. | :11:08. | |
:11:08. | :11:09. | ||
singer, but I remember her as... Just a very dear person, who loved | :11:09. | :11:16. | |
her family, loved her hands, -- loved her fans, and loved was | :11:16. | :11:23. | |
everything to her. An album of unheard material could be released | :11:23. | :11:28. | |
in the future. Fans, no doubt, will be eager to know what has been left | :11:28. | :11:33. | |
in the studio. A woman from Brighton died after a | :11:33. | :11:36. | |
trip to the dentist in Feburary. An inquest has heard how 30-year-old | :11:36. | :11:39. | |
Sacha Rumaner was having a check up after an extraction when she | :11:39. | :11:44. | |
suffered a rare but severe allergic reaction to the mouthwash. Sacha | :11:44. | :11:48. | |
was pronounced dead at the scene at the surgery in Morley Street. | :11:48. | :11:51. | |
New figures show that the South East has followed the national | :11:51. | :11:54. | |
trend of rising unemployment, with an extra 1,000 people out of work | :11:54. | :11:59. | |
in the last three months. The total number of unemployed in this region | :11:59. | :12:03. | |
has reached 256,000. But overall unemployment in the South East is | :12:03. | :12:10. | |
still the lowest in England at 5.8%. A man has appeared in court charged | :12:10. | :12:13. | |
with murdering his 71-year-old father. Terry Wootton was found | :12:13. | :12:16. | |
with stab wounds at a house in Mackenzie Way in Gravesend on | :12:16. | :12:20. | |
Monday night. He was pronounced dead at the scene. 47-year-old Tony | :12:20. | :12:23. | |
Wotton has been remanded in custody to appear at Maidstone Crown Court | :12:23. | :12:32. | |
on Friday. Sussex police say they are no | :12:32. | :12:35. | |
longer searching for the body of Gary Hampson, a father from Port | :12:36. | :12:40. | |
stayed near Brighton, who has been missing since January. Large | :12:40. | :12:43. | |
quantities of blood were found with the garage -- at the garage where | :12:43. | :12:48. | |
he lived at home. Police then extending the search to Sussex and | :12:48. | :12:52. | |
Surrey. What reasons other police given for this? They said they had | :12:52. | :12:59. | |
just run out of options. They surged past just of Sussex, the a | :12:59. | :13:06. | |
23 coroner, went into -- corridor, went into Horsham, but then took | :13:06. | :13:09. | |
advice which said that what they had done was comprehensive and | :13:09. | :13:12. | |
there was nothing more they could do. If this rings bells, it could | :13:12. | :13:17. | |
be because in the middle of June, Sussex police took the unusual step | :13:17. | :13:22. | |
of publicising a Father's Day letter written by Gary Hampson's 10 | :13:23. | :13:28. | |
year-old daughter. Some of it was heart-wrenching. If you came back | :13:28. | :13:34. | |
off five minutes, I would tell you, one, I wish I could say goodbye. | :13:34. | :13:42. | |
Two, I love you. Three, an issue. Four, how did you die? Five, I Love | :13:42. | :13:47. | |
You To Care Bear world and back. Six, I miss your voices, seven, | :13:47. | :13:53. | |
eyeball to a pulping plant. What for the family now? Is the case | :13:53. | :13:57. | |
closed? Far from it. Police stressed the investigation | :13:57. | :14:04. | |
continues, and two people face trial in the new year. Daniel | :14:04. | :14:12. | |
Alexander, who denies murder, and Raul -- Roy Paul Trollope, who -- | :14:12. | :14:19. | |
Rory are trapped who denies perverting the course of Baz -- | :14:19. | :14:21. | |
justice. A badgers' sett is having to be | :14:21. | :14:25. | |
moved from a flood defence barrier in Kent at a cost of �80,000. In | :14:25. | :14:28. | |
addition, works to repair the damage to the earth bank at Hythe | :14:28. | :14:31. | |
will cost a further �720,000. But critics of the Environment Agency's | :14:31. | :14:34. | |
scheme to move the colony of badgers say it's nothing but a | :14:34. | :14:40. | |
waste of money. Inquisitive, elusive, and an | :14:40. | :14:44. | |
excellent bigger. The badger is a master of the borough. So skilled | :14:44. | :14:48. | |
at making vast underground homes, they can undermine construction and | :14:48. | :14:53. | |
flood defences. It has just happened in her eyes. In times of | :14:53. | :14:57. | |
high rain fell, this stream will fill this valley with floodwater. | :14:57. | :15:03. | |
The embankment here halt the flood water back from going into town. | :15:03. | :15:07. | |
Badgers have been digging into the Embankment, weakening it, so the | :15:07. | :15:11. | |
project is about strengthening the Embankment and moving the badgers | :15:11. | :15:17. | |
to somewhere more suitable. With badger fences installed some time | :15:17. | :15:22. | |
ago, and the doors set at exit only, filling in work can get under way. | :15:22. | :15:27. | |
It is a large and costly job. Badgers have occupied this | :15:27. | :15:32. | |
embankment for more than 80 years, creating a complex network of | :15:32. | :15:35. | |
interconnecting tunnels and chambers. But now it is being | :15:35. | :15:40. | |
filled. With some 50 cubic metres of concrete. And the badgers have | :15:40. | :15:45. | |
now taken up residence in a purpose-built set in a strict | :15:45. | :15:51. | |
location near by. In a secret location. He we have got all of the | :15:51. | :15:55. | |
soil with badger hair in it, badger footprints over there, we have got | :15:55. | :16:01. | |
the markets from inside the chambers. It is warm and dry, maybe | :16:01. | :16:06. | |
not quite as good as the old place, but it must be good or we would not | :16:06. | :16:11. | |
have the evidence. Badgers are protected by law but | :16:11. | :16:14. | |
there are those who ask whether spending that much money to move | :16:14. | :16:18. | |
than is justified. You have got to make a new home for them, but it | :16:18. | :16:25. | |
seems a lot of money to move a few badgers five or 10 minutes away. | :16:25. | :16:30. | |
need a change in the law to allow the money from mitigation to | :16:30. | :16:34. | |
recreate habitat, and not do engineering works to create a new | :16:34. | :16:38. | |
badger sett. That is an inefficient waste of money. For now, ultimately, | :16:38. | :16:44. | |
it is about improving flood defences for the town and work will | :16:44. | :16:54. | |

This is our top story tonight. A primary school was evacuated and | :16:55. | :16:57. | |
Canterbury Cathedral placed under lockdown while the army carried out | :16:57. | :17:00. | |
a controlled explosion on a suspect package this afternoon. It's the | :17:00. | :17:03. | |
second such incident in the city in just three weeks. | :17:03. | :17:05. | |
Also coming up. The devout communist. Taking a fresh look at | :17:05. | :17:11. | |
Canterbury's Controversial Clergyman. | :17:11. | :17:14. | |
And at long last, we have got settled conditions, but you guessed | :17:15. | :17:18. | |
it, low pressure is not far away and it is going to change at the | :17:18. | :17:27. | |
He's regarded as one of the most significant British artists of the | :17:27. | :17:30. | |
20th century, who drew much of his inspiration from cycling around the | :17:30. | :17:34. | |
Kent and Sussex landscape. John Piper's well known work includes | :17:34. | :17:37. | |
paintings of churches on the Romney Marsh, and the stately homes of | :17:37. | :17:41. | |
Firle, Scotney and Knole. Now the Towner Gallery in Eastbourne has | :17:41. | :17:44. | |
launched an appeal to buy two of his most special paintings. Sara | :17:44. | :17:54. | |
:17:54. | :18:09. | ||
Step inside this exhibition at the Towner Gallery and John Piper's | :18:09. | :18:13. | |
fascination with Kent and Sussex is immediately clear. Among the | :18:14. | :18:17. | |
drawings, collages and paintings which make up this, the biggest | :18:17. | :18:21. | |
collection of his work ever to have gone on display, our notebooks from | :18:21. | :18:26. | |
his teenage years, exploring the area by bike. He kept coming back | :18:26. | :18:31. | |
time and time again to this local area. He was drawing the landscape, | :18:31. | :18:36. | |
the buildings, the churches. He was also producing works on commission, | :18:36. | :18:40. | |
stained-glass windows for the churches and tapestries. He brushes | :18:40. | :18:45. | |
the back and edges of the copper... This put it from the 1950s shows | :18:45. | :18:51. | |
him working with acidic to produce one of his series of aquatints. He | :18:51. | :18:57. | |
also designed sets for plays and operas. Come the 1960s, his work | :18:57. | :19:02. | |
developed again, he was asked to create stained-glass windows for | :19:02. | :19:10. | |
several churches. At the end of this exhibition, the pieces will | :19:10. | :19:13. | |
return to the galleries and collections from where they came. | :19:13. | :19:18. | |
Except, it is hoped, the two images of Newhaven which are up for sale. | :19:18. | :19:22. | |
We have got a new and unique opportunity to keep two works | :19:22. | :19:27. | |
created by a very important British artist in the locality in which | :19:27. | :19:31. | |
they were allocated. These works were produced a few miles outside | :19:31. | :19:35. | |
of Eastbourne, responding to the landscape, they can actually stay | :19:35. | :19:40. | |
here permanently and be shared and celebrated. One of them even | :19:40. | :19:44. | |
includes a surprise. On the reverse, an earlier work which John Piper | :19:44. | :19:50. | |
had clearly rejected. Already more than �80,000 has been donated all | :19:50. | :19:54. | |
pledged to buy up pieces for the Towner Gallery. A few 1000 more, | :19:54. | :20:04. | |

In the mid 20th century, few people divided public opinion more than | :20:06. | :20:12. | |
Hewlett Johnson the red dean of Canterbury. Hewlett Johnson was the | :20:12. | :20:16. | |
Dean of Canterbury between 1931 and 1963. He was a self-professed | :20:16. | :20:24. | |
Communist, at a time when the Cold War was at its height. | :20:24. | :20:29. | |
By publicly supporting the October at seven look -- revolution, He was | :20:29. | :20:32. | |
brought under surveillance by MI5 as early as 1917. Now a new book | :20:32. | :20:35. | |
has had access to his unpublished personal letters that shed light on | :20:35. | :20:42. | |
Canterbury's Red Dean. Called the Red Dean, he had been | :20:42. | :20:47. | |
previously denied a visa. As a Communist sympathiser, his presence | :20:47. | :20:51. | |
in post-war America was headline news. Now 80 years after his | :20:51. | :20:55. | |
appointment as Dean of Canterbury Cathedral, a new biography has been | :20:55. | :20:59. | |
written about the clergyman who rubbed shoulders with the political | :20:59. | :21:04. | |
elite on the world stage. In 1945, Hewlett Johnson had a private | :21:04. | :21:09. | |
interview with Stalin and Molotov in the Kremlin. A few months later, | :21:09. | :21:14. | |
he crossed the Atlantic and he was having a private meeting with | :21:14. | :21:17. | |
President Truman in the White House, and he was carrying messages from | :21:17. | :21:22. | |
Stalin to President Truman. Hewlett Johnson's connections to Canterbury | :21:22. | :21:26. | |
started in 1931 when he left Manchester to become Dean. By then, | :21:26. | :21:32. | |
he was already on MI5's radar because of his socialist beliefs. | :21:32. | :21:36. | |
Hewlett Johnson was not a spy and he was not a traitor. What he was | :21:36. | :21:42. | |
was a propagandist. For many years, he became one of the most prominent | :21:42. | :21:47. | |
and articulate apologists for Stalinism in the Western world. | :21:47. | :21:51. | |
Canterbury term -- our camera talk with Mrs Roosevelt start in | :21:51. | :21:56. | |
Canterbury. His controversial views did not stop America's first lady | :21:56. | :22:04. | |
meeting him in 1942. As a cathedral guide, John Butler is fascinated | :22:04. | :22:10. | |
with Hewlett Johnson. Especially the contradictions, a left winger | :22:10. | :22:15. | |
who was had to be Chairman of Governors of England's oldest | :22:15. | :22:21. | |
public school. This but he had with pupils and headmasters. Following | :22:21. | :22:25. | |
the Soviet suppression of the uprising in Hungary, the King's | :22:25. | :22:29. | |
School boys got together a very elaborate petition signed by 300 | :22:29. | :22:33. | |
boys calling on the Dean to resign, because he refused to condemn the | :22:33. | :22:38. | |
Soviet suppression of the uprising in Hungary. On a personal note, his | :22:38. | :22:43. | |
time here was a happy one. He was widowed shortly before being | :22:43. | :22:48. | |
appointed Dean. He then married a woman half his age, enjoyed | :22:48. | :22:57. | |
fatherhood in his sixties, and did not retire until he was 89. | :22:57. | :23:00. | |
What an incredible life. He was a character. | :23:00. | :23:02. | |
Tickets for Brighton's big match against Premiership side Liverpool | :23:02. | :23:05. | |
have now sold out. Fans were queuing round the ground this | :23:05. | :23:09. | |
morning in a bid to get their hands on the last remaining seats for the | :23:09. | :23:11. | |
third round Carling Cup tie. It's the most glamorous competitive | :23:11. | :23:14. | |
match the Seagulls will have faced since moving into the Amex stadium. | :23:14. | :23:17. | |
Meanwhile, there wasn't much glamour for any of our senior sides | :23:17. | :23:20. | |
last night. Charlton were knocked out of the Carling Cup, and in | :23:20. | :23:23. | |
League Two Gillingham and Crawley also lost. Charlie Rose has the | :23:23. | :23:29. | |
details. A Two-nil League win over Exeter at | :23:29. | :23:34. | |
the weekend which put Charlton puts top of the table would have left | :23:34. | :23:38. | |
them sky-high confidently. The League Cup is a different game. | :23:38. | :23:42. | |
Daryl Russell got on the end of this blocked a camp in the opening | :23:42. | :23:46. | |
minutes. Them in the second half, just watch this. A contender for | :23:46. | :23:53. | |
goal of the month. An offside decision in stoppage time denied | :23:53. | :23:57. | |
Charlton a goal, and it summed up their evening. | :23:57. | :24:02. | |
After being thrashed 6-0 at the weekend, almost anything Crawley | :24:02. | :24:06. | |
did during last night's home game against Swindon would have been an | :24:06. | :24:10. | |
improvement. They took the lead with his overhead kick. Despite | :24:10. | :24:15. | |
Crawley's push for an equaliser, the second half score -- saw two | :24:15. | :24:19. | |
more goals for Swindon. It was Crawley's first home event for the | :24:19. | :24:24. | |
season. -- home defeat of the season. Gillingham are having a | :24:24. | :24:28. | |
rough time as well, despite Southend going down for 10 men. | :24:28. | :24:33. | |
They could not break through. They were twice denied by the keeper of | :24:33. | :24:37. | |
Southend before the killer blow, three minutes from time. Gillingham | :24:37. | :24:45. | |
have now dropped to mid-table. After all those miserable football | :24:45. | :24:53. | |
results, let's cheer ourselves up You are never going to believe this. | :24:53. | :24:58. | |
A fine day tomorrow, no rain, no wind, some sunshine, a he will not | :24:58. | :25:04. | |
believe it and it won't last! I had to get that one in. It will be a | :25:04. | :25:08. | |
chilly start as well tomorrow. At long last, we have high pressure on | :25:08. | :25:13. | |
the scene, we have not had it for a long time. It is quieter link | :25:13. | :25:18. | |
things down, bringing chilly night and fog around. Unfortunately, | :25:18. | :25:21. | |
another weather system is already looming large heading in from the | :25:21. | :25:27. | |
Atlantic, and that has our name on it for later in the week. Today, we | :25:27. | :25:31. | |
had a fair bit of cloud, or even a few showers along the south coast. | :25:31. | :25:35. | |
They are fading away now under cloud is dissolving. Through the | :25:35. | :25:38. | |
night, it will be fine and drive with well broken cloud. | :25:38. | :25:45. | |
Temperatures will take quite a tumble. We will get down to seven, | :25:45. | :25:48. | |
eight or nine by the end of the night. A little bit of mistiness as | :25:48. | :25:52. | |
well but nothing to worry about. Actually starts tomorrow, some mist, | :25:52. | :26:01. | |
but it will be a dry day. There will be a fair amount of sunshine. | :26:01. | :26:04. | |
With the light wind and the sunshine it will feel pleasantly | :26:04. | :26:13. | |
warm. Not bad for the time of year, temperature wise. Tomorrow evening, | :26:13. | :26:16. | |
three tomorrow night, more or less the defeat except there will be | :26:16. | :26:25. | |
more cloud around. It will be dry but a bit colder. They will | :26:25. | :26:30. | |
increase slightly, the temperatures. For the rest of Friday and into | :26:30. | :26:35. | |
Saturday, things begin to change again. Low pressure moving down | :26:35. | :26:38. | |
from the north, packing in the isobars again, bringing a weather | :26:38. | :26:42. | |
system along. Another one is another Hurricane, Hurricane Marie, | :26:43. | :26:48. | |
but that is heading up towards Greenland. Not heading our way. We | :26:48. | :26:52. | |
have low pressure over us over the weekend say things will begin to | :26:52. | :26:57. | |
change. After a reasonable day tomorrow, it looks as if on Friday, | :26:57. | :27:02. | |
or we could be getting some showery burst of rain. It is wet and windy | :27:03. | :27:12. | |
The headlines tonight. There are now more than two and a half | :27:12. | :27:16. | |
million unemployed people in the UK. The biggest jump in the figures for | :27:16. | :27:20. | |
nearly two years. A suspicious package led to a | :27:20. | :27:23. | |
lockdown of Canterbury Cathedral and people being evacuated from | :27:23. | :27:28. |
