:00:08. > :00:11.And I'm Rob Smith. Tonight's top stories.
:00:11. > :00:15.The hosepipe ban comes into force across Kent, Sussex and Surrey at
:00:15. > :00:18.midnight. Customers are warned they face a �1,000 fine if they flout it.
:00:18. > :00:20.We'll be talking live to Southern Water about the drought situation -
:00:20. > :00:23.and what they're doing to keep the taps open.
:00:24. > :00:32.Cut price diesel for lorries in Dover - the radical plan being

:01:12. > :01:14.ship figureheads goes on display at Good evening. Hosepipe bans come
:01:15. > :01:18.into effect across Kent, Sussex and Surrey at midnight tonight after
:01:18. > :01:23.one of the driest two-year periods on record, and with no end to the
:01:23. > :01:26.drought conditions in sight. Seven companies are introducing
:01:26. > :01:31.restrictions on water use, with domestic users facing fines of up
:01:31. > :01:34.to �1,000 for defying them. Our Environment Correspondent Yvette
:01:35. > :01:44.Austin has been surveying how the region will cope with a year of
:01:44. > :01:50.drought. He passes a law climbing down a
:01:51. > :01:55.series of ladders but it takes months for the rain to pass through
:01:55. > :02:01.the rock. 100 ft down is the supply of water and it is much below the
:02:01. > :02:05.level it should be. As serious is this situation? We are hoping it is
:02:05. > :02:09.not that bad, but if you look good for the water level is now, the
:02:09. > :02:15.water level this time last year was up to were my knee is, that is
:02:15. > :02:19.directly, the water would be above our heads, three metres above for a
:02:19. > :02:24.be a standing now, so it is very low, but compared to what their
:02:24. > :02:28.supplies, they are extremely low and we are very concerned.
:02:28. > :02:36.company has to we did and 50 more Wells, most at a level never seen
:02:36. > :02:39.before. It depends on the recovery level we would expect to see, but
:02:39. > :02:44.in a lot of places, the pump is reaching below where it can pop
:02:44. > :02:49.from, so we might have to lower them further and get alternative
:02:49. > :02:53.supplies into this area of supply. Underground supplies are far more
:02:53. > :02:58.important than a reservoir. For South East Water, nearly three-
:02:58. > :03:03.quarters of what is used comes from below ground. Some comes from the
:03:03. > :03:10.river is. Just 7% comes from a reservoir. Reservoirs remain a good
:03:10. > :03:14.indicator. South East Water recently took extra water from the
:03:14. > :03:18.river to replenish the reservoir, but taking waters from the river in
:03:18. > :03:22.a period of drought is not ideal. If we need to protect the
:03:22. > :03:26.environment, the ecology, these fish, so we can allow the water to
:03:26. > :03:31.be taken, but there is a limit. We need to protect the environment but
:03:31. > :03:40.also secured the public water supply. In Kent, so that water is
:03:40. > :03:44.trying to replenished the reservoir. Currently the water is at 50 %,
:03:44. > :03:49.despite water being pumped in from the River Medway. Southern Water
:03:49. > :03:53.wants the reservoir to be at 70 % by the end of this month, but that
:03:53. > :03:57.haggard seems optimistic. If groundwater levels fall further,
:03:57. > :04:02.there may be a temptation to delve deeper, but it is thought to be
:04:02. > :04:08.unwise. There is a level of water and a fluctuation of several tens
:04:08. > :04:13.of metres that is supported and replenished by the seasons. If we
:04:13. > :04:16.stop glory the overall water table it is like my new water. The water
:04:16. > :04:20.companies say that a wet autumn and winter is needed if another
:04:20. > :04:24.hosepipe ban is to be avoided next year.
:04:24. > :04:28.The last time the South East had a hosepipe ban was in 2006, after a
:04:28. > :04:31.series of dry winters had left aquifer levels low. At the start of
:04:31. > :04:34.this year water companies were warning that we would need a wet
:04:34. > :04:39.start to 2012 if we were to avoid another ban - but that hasn't
:04:39. > :04:42.happened. Last month was the fifth driest March on record. It's hoped
:04:42. > :04:47.that the ban will lead to a 5% reduction in water use - enough to
:04:47. > :04:50.safeguard supplies for drinking and essential tasks. Many residents in
:04:50. > :05:00.the south east are already changing their habits when it comes to
:05:00. > :05:00.
:05:00. > :05:07.conserving and recycling water. is difficult at first, really, for
:05:07. > :05:14.both of us, because it becomes a habit. We were using a bagging a
:05:14. > :05:19.sister to save water. We then had the ball when boiling water and we
:05:19. > :05:25.had some plastic jugs to save all of that and use it in the kitchen.
:05:25. > :05:28.Then when the water butts would be enough, we had plastic water
:05:28. > :05:34.storage areas out and we would stand in it in the shower and that
:05:34. > :05:37.is what we do 75 % of the year. Buckets of water had we been
:05:37. > :05:43.allowed. Flout the ban and you face a fine
:05:44. > :05:46.of up to �1,000. But critics point out that far more water is being
:05:46. > :05:50.wasted through leaks. Ofwat figures show that last year Southern Water
:05:50. > :05:53.lost around 96 million litres of water per day - that's 16% of its
:05:53. > :05:56.daily total. They say they've improved since then - but over the
:05:56. > :06:05.same period the company made an operating profit of �191 million.
:06:05. > :06:12.Well let's speak to Paul Kent from Southern Water. You can't make it
:06:12. > :06:17.rain - but you can certainly improve the leakage rate.
:06:17. > :06:21.I agree, and we have done something awful stop the record for leakage
:06:21. > :06:26.this year is likely to be the lowest it has been for many years.
:06:26. > :06:33.It is in the region of �25 million a year on fixing leaks in the area,
:06:33. > :06:38.so that is a good record. If you made �181 million profits jejune
:06:38. > :06:42.not plough much more in to make sure you have no leakage. If you
:06:42. > :06:48.talk about the proffered, this is paper profit which is put back into
:06:48. > :06:51.the business to address leakage, mains renewal, make sure that be
:06:51. > :06:56.replaced lengths of water distribution systems to prevent
:06:56. > :07:00.leakage. In the short term, he would put water meters in to reduce
:07:00. > :07:06.the amount of water that is used, but in the long term, we need a
:07:06. > :07:13.bigger silly show, something like a national water grid?... Bigger
:07:13. > :07:18.solutions. We have a 25 year Water Resources Plan that is being
:07:18. > :07:22.updated at the moment. We consider these issues. We need to recognise
:07:22. > :07:28.that bringing water from a wetter parts of the country in the north
:07:28. > :07:32.is very expensive. It creates a carbon footprint also, so not
:07:32. > :07:37.necessarily the best solution. We need to look locally at we're
:07:37. > :07:40.looking at these issues and we need to bear in mind that what we need
:07:40. > :07:43.to do is provide a service that customers are willing to pay for
:07:44. > :07:47.and we would do some research later this year to determine what the
:07:47. > :07:50.customers, what level of service they want and are prepared to pay
:07:51. > :07:56.for? Thank you. Only a few more hours until the
:07:56. > :07:59.hosepipe ban comes into force. How will you be changing your habits?
:07:59. > :08:03.We'd love to hear from you. You can email in at the usual address or
:08:03. > :08:06.contact us on our Facebook or Twitter sites.
:08:06. > :08:09.Kent County Council wants to set up a duty-free fuel zone in Dover, to
:08:09. > :08:15.encourage British truck drivers to buy diesel here rather than fill up
:08:15. > :08:18.on the continent. The leader of KCC will meet Government Ministers next
:08:18. > :08:21.month to discuss plans for a filling station in the port of
:08:21. > :08:25.Dover where diesel would be sold at the same rate of fuel duty as in
:08:25. > :08:33.France. It's believed the scheme could raise up to �400 million for
:08:33. > :08:36.the UK economy. Our Business Correspondent Mark Norman reports.
:08:36. > :08:41.In the last few weeks fuel shortages and rising fuel prices
:08:41. > :08:46.have become political issues. Now local politicians want to see a
:08:46. > :08:49.duty-free petrol station in Dover. With diesel 15% cheaper in France.
:08:49. > :08:52.If UK hauliers could fill up here rather than on the continent AND at
:08:52. > :09:02.the same price, then the UK government would get the tax rather
:09:02. > :09:03.
:09:03. > :09:08.than the French authorities. suggesting is to have battle that
:09:09. > :09:12.is more duty-free at the poor debates about entry to incite
:09:12. > :09:14.advise people to fill up rather than in mainland Europe. Between
:09:14. > :09:18.4,000 and 5,000 lorries pass through Dover every day. The
:09:18. > :09:21.average lorry can hold 1,500 litres of diesel. If they filled up here
:09:21. > :09:24.and paid the same rate of duty it could bring �400 million into the
:09:25. > :09:34.UK Treasury. Industry experts like the idea. But with a few
:09:34. > :09:39.reservations. We have a bit of a concern over the illegality of the
:09:39. > :09:45.idea, for example, is a discriminating against other UK
:09:45. > :09:51.operators? How will it be enforced by Revenue and Customs? We should
:09:51. > :09:58.look at going a bit wider and a look at how we can have less diesel
:09:58. > :10:05.taxes, less taxed as desks and have more lorry road turns and have UK
:10:05. > :10:08.road hauliers and A-level pain field with people from over feels.
:10:08. > :10:11.-- on a level playing-field from overseas.
:10:11. > :10:15.This is still only an idea. The Government would have to give
:10:15. > :10:18.approval. European authorities would have to be consulted. But KCC
:10:18. > :10:22.will hope to make some progress when they speak to government
:10:22. > :10:28.ministers next month. Coming up: The micro-brewery
:10:28. > :10:31.denying linking with alcohol with violence.
:10:31. > :10:37.A man from Canterbury has been describing how he survived eight
:10:37. > :10:39.weeks in a Cairo jail where he was slashed with a knife. Alistair
:10:40. > :10:43.Hickson was arrested on suspicion of throwing rocks during the
:10:43. > :10:46.political unrest in the Egyptian capital. Mr Hickson says he was
:10:46. > :10:53.just taking pictures but after being arrested claims he was hit by
:10:53. > :10:56.the police. Simon Jones has been to meet him.
:10:56. > :11:01.He wanted to capture rate plummeting history, but Alistair
:11:01. > :11:06.Hicks and ended up being the story himself. It was a complete
:11:06. > :11:09.nightmare. I never expected it. I thought I might get arrested but I
:11:09. > :11:15.just assumed that by photographs might be deleted or something like
:11:16. > :11:19.that. It was almost like I said to other prisoners, I felt like I had
:11:19. > :11:24.fallen through a hole and were in this different world where I was
:11:24. > :11:28.locked in a police van with children. We were all deprived of
:11:28. > :11:33.water for ages and at one point I thought they do not care if we all

:11:51. > :11:57.take photographs. -- if he hears. He's asking for trouble! We knew
:11:57. > :12:03.arrested, we are clearly we doing nothing role? Yes, I was just
:12:03. > :12:09.taking photographs. I have no criminal record year it bought in
:12:09. > :12:14.Egypt and I knew, I always knew that the Government were saying
:12:14. > :12:17.that foreign hands were intervening in the revolution. Even though he
:12:17. > :12:22.is back in Canterbury, he says because his deportation happen so
:12:22. > :12:27.quickly, he has no idea if he will have to return to Egypt to face
:12:27. > :12:31.further court proceedings in the future. One of the major challenges
:12:31. > :12:35.if you face criminal charges in any country is the language, at the
:12:35. > :12:39.lack of understanding of what is going over, and time and again, we
:12:39. > :12:44.have people contacting us that had been in prison awaiting trial
:12:44. > :12:47.without understanding what it is for. The Egyptian embassy said they
:12:47. > :12:50.could not comment on the case until they investigate further.
:12:50. > :12:53.Kent's schools are to be targeted by the Government which says it's
:12:53. > :12:55.determined to improve educational performance in the county. OFSTED
:12:56. > :13:00.recently announced plans to abolish the category of satisfactory,
:13:00. > :13:02.replacing it with 'requires improvement'. The Education
:13:02. > :13:08.Secretary Michael Gove says any school which falls into this
:13:08. > :13:18.category three times may forcibly be taken over by an academy. Kent

:13:23. > :13:26.20th anniversary of Airbourne - the annual Eastbourne Airshow - will be
:13:26. > :13:29.taking place without the Red Arrows for the first time in years. The
:13:29. > :13:32.event, which starts in August, will include various RAF jets, but
:13:32. > :13:34.organisers have been told that the Red Arrows, will not participate
:13:34. > :13:40.due to other commitments. The Highways Agency is scrapping
:13:40. > :13:43.the concrete barrier used as part of Operation Stack. It's believed
:13:43. > :13:46.the Quickchange Moveable Barrier which cost more than �2.5 million
:13:46. > :13:49.has only been used twice in the last four years. Operation Stack
:13:49. > :13:52.comes into force when the M20 in Kent is turned into a giant lorry
:13:52. > :13:56.park whenever there are problems at the Channel Ports. Well let's cross
:13:56. > :14:04.to the Port of Dover and our reporter Ellie Price. Why is the
:14:04. > :14:09.barrier being scrapped? The Highways Agency said it was not
:14:09. > :14:14.worth the money, the idea was it would set up a contraflow easily if
:14:14. > :14:19.there was a problem on the M20 at the Channel Tunnel or in Dover. It
:14:19. > :14:24.was initially set up on trial in 2,000 a day between highways and
:14:24. > :14:29.Tritton. The Highways Agency said because it was specialised
:14:29. > :14:33.equipment, it cost more than �600,000 a year at the two least,
:14:33. > :14:38.adding up to �2.5 million over four years. That is a lot of money when
:14:38. > :14:42.it was only used twice. It was used once in a routine operation
:14:42. > :14:47.incident and the second time over a number of months following a total
:14:47. > :14:55.fire. What has been a reaction to the news today? �2.5 million of tax
:14:55. > :15:00.money is a lot, and the local MP, Damian Collins, he said it was a
:15:00. > :15:05.total waste of time. It was an attempt to fight a middle-of-the-
:15:05. > :15:08.road solution to operations Stack, and it is not what we need. We
:15:08. > :15:12.would be better co-ordinated with the police, the port and the
:15:12. > :15:16.Channel Tunnel had that is more efficient with dealing with this
:15:16. > :15:21.operation, but in the Laurenne we need a permanent solution to
:15:21. > :15:25.offload a lorry parking at every immovable barrier which would block
:15:25. > :15:32.be able to cope with an incident like this. The Highways Agency says

:20:52. > :20:55.If you find them irresistible, bear this in mind, they point out that
:20:55. > :21:00.often the animals are in a terrible state because the owners cannot

:21:20. > :21:24.11th nation to confirm they'll train in the county in the run up

:21:56. > :21:59.flames during restoration five years ago, many feared it would be
:21:59. > :22:04.lost forever, but later this month the famous old clipper WILL reopen
:22:04. > :22:07.to the public. And at the heart of it will be an extraordinary display
:22:07. > :22:10.of figureheads - gifted to the ship in the 1950's by an eccentric
:22:10. > :22:18.collector from Gravesend who'd devoted his life - and his home -
:22:18. > :22:22.to all things maritime. Peter Whittlesea reports.
:22:22. > :22:27.After more than 100 years, it is hardly surprising that these
:22:27. > :22:32.figureheads need a facelift. The collection was amassed by one man.
:22:32. > :22:38.He kept them at his house in Gravesend. They will now be on show
:22:38. > :22:42.at the newly restored Cutty Sark. He had a nice house in Hyde Park
:22:42. > :22:46.get made his money in the printing business, but had a separate home
:22:46. > :22:52.in Gravesend and it was like a private museum or he had his
:22:52. > :22:57.collection of figureheads. What was he like? He wore an eye patch, he
:22:57. > :23:01.loved everything to do with the Merchant Navy. When the Cutty Sark
:23:01. > :23:07.caught fire five years ago, it was feared historical artefacts would
:23:07. > :23:11.be lost for ever, but fortunately, many of the artefacts were in
:23:11. > :23:16.storage. The collection dates from the 19th century when the merchant
:23:16. > :23:19.navy departed from tradition. Out went coats of arms and in came
:23:19. > :23:28.figureheads to guide the ship's passage. Prominent people soon
:23:28. > :23:32.found their faces harm these ships like the anti-slavery crusader,
:23:32. > :23:37.William Wilberforce. Florence Nightingale was another winner.
:23:37. > :23:43.Bringing them back to life has been rewarded. They are all different
:23:43. > :23:47.and they all presented a unique conservation will challenge, be it.
:23:47. > :23:52.Getting the collars right is difficult at times. Others needed
:23:52. > :23:58.consolidation of the wood where it was effectively powder in places.
:23:58. > :24:02.Real characters are never forgotten and this collector is no exception.
:24:02. > :24:06.At his former home in Gravesend, he is fondly remembers. He would sit
:24:06. > :24:14.there with his eye patch on and shout at us if we went anywhere
:24:14. > :24:20.near the figureheads. He used to be in the paper is quite a bit. It
:24:20. > :24:25.took below time to look about his house with all of these figureheads.
:24:25. > :24:35.60 years later, the figureheads are now on show again. This time, they
:24:35. > :24:35.
:24:35. > :24:38.are beneath the bows of the new restored Cutty Sark.
:24:38. > :24:48.We mentioned the bad weather that is going UN of the North,
