That is all from the News At Six, goodbye from me and | :00:00. | :00:07. | |
Welcome to South East Today, I'm Rob Smith. | :00:08. | :00:10. | |
And I'm Bryony MacKenzie. Tonight's top stories: Major rail | :00:11. | :00:14. | |
works planned for the Christmas holidays that could bring misery for | :00:15. | :00:22. | |
travellers. Why do the mac Christmas? That is | :00:23. | :00:27. | |
insane. I would be fed up to work on Christmas Day, that is for sure. Too | :00:28. | :00:30. | |
many patients to cope ` hospital staff fears as the number of people | :00:31. | :00:33. | |
using A soars. We're live at a hospital in Ashford | :00:34. | :00:35. | |
tonight. Also in tonight's programme: | :00:36. | :00:37. | |
Unprecedented problems of drug`taking and bullying at a Kent | :00:38. | :00:39. | |
prison. The ultimate in intimate gifts? The | :00:40. | :00:42. | |
Brighton artists offering to make a picture frame ` with placenta. | :00:43. | :00:52. | |
And sold for ?400,000. Thank you very much indeed. | :00:53. | :00:55. | |
Buy Misty for me ` the Sussex auctioneers that have sold a | :00:56. | :01:06. | |
complete dinosaur. Good evening. Major engineering | :01:07. | :01:08. | |
works will mean massive disruption to train services right through the | :01:09. | :01:11. | |
Christmas period, with the Gatwick Express closing completely. The | :01:12. | :01:17. | |
journey between Brighton and London could take some two and a half hours | :01:18. | :01:21. | |
during the holiday period. Kent commuters are also set to face | :01:22. | :01:24. | |
major disruption with ?19 million upgrade at Gravesend station meaning | :01:25. | :01:27. | |
Southeastern will not run any trains from or through Gravesend between 22 | :01:28. | :01:30. | |
December and five January. John Young has this report. | :01:31. | :01:42. | |
Normally it is the weather that causes most of the problems for | :01:43. | :01:46. | |
travellers over Christmas and New Year, but this year we can put the | :01:47. | :01:50. | |
problems in the diary. For some people on Sussex coast this | :01:51. | :01:53. | |
afternoon it came as a bit of a shock to realise that journeys which | :01:54. | :01:57. | |
often take less than an hour could take two and a half hours. That is | :01:58. | :02:03. | |
ridiculous. They say that it is because they have a lot of | :02:04. | :02:07. | |
engineering works and want to do it at one goal. Why do it at | :02:08. | :02:15. | |
Christmas? That is insane. The works include a rebuild that Gatwick | :02:16. | :02:20. | |
station. They have to detect some point, but surely they could be | :02:21. | :02:23. | |
staggered throughout the year rather than at Christmas. Probably not the | :02:24. | :02:26. | |
best time to do it, but if it has to be done it has to be I'm glad I | :02:27. | :02:33. | |
don't use the trademark edge `` trains much, because I would be fed | :02:34. | :02:38. | |
up. The quickest route from Brighton to London will involve a change at | :02:39. | :02:46. | |
Three Bridges. There are alternatives, but they could take | :02:47. | :02:53. | |
even longer. If you're heading from Gatwick to London you will need to | :02:54. | :03:02. | |
board a bus at East Grinstead. They're also have to be temporary | :03:03. | :03:06. | |
bus service between Ed 's fleet and Gravesend. Many people are saying | :03:07. | :03:13. | |
that it is better done at one goal when summoning people are not | :03:14. | :03:20. | |
commuting. The Christmas period is when the big commuter demand traffic | :03:21. | :03:25. | |
is at its lowest. We have a two`day shutdown over the festive holiday so | :03:26. | :03:29. | |
it provides us with a real opportunity during the Christmas | :03:30. | :03:34. | |
week. Southeastern have apologised again for yesterday's mayhem after a | :03:35. | :03:38. | |
fire at London Bridge. Compensation is being offered to anyone delayed | :03:39. | :03:42. | |
by more than half an hour last night. As for Christmas travel, we | :03:43. | :03:45. | |
have then warned. Well, John joins us now from | :03:46. | :03:49. | |
Brighton station. John, what advice are the train companies giving? It | :03:50. | :03:58. | |
is unanimous. Plan ahead, go on national ruling enquiries, check the | :03:59. | :04:04. | |
website. The advice is to look into it in advance. The message from the | :04:05. | :04:09. | |
vance. The message from the I direct director`general of the Rail Livery | :04:10. | :04:20. | |
The Sussex and Surrey NHS Trust saw a 22% increase over the same period. | :04:21. | :05:19. | |
Attendance to Kent's A units has gone up by more than 17%. Our | :05:20. | :05:22. | |
political reporter Ellie Price spent the day at the William Harvey | :05:23. | :05:25. | |
Hospital in Ashford. It is an issue never far from the | :05:26. | :05:30. | |
headlines or indeed the House of Commons. The Health Secretary Jeremy | :05:31. | :05:36. | |
Hunt just a few weeks ago announced ?150 million extra nationally to | :05:37. | :05:40. | |
help hospitals cope. The hospital here trying to be attention to those | :05:41. | :05:43. | |
statistics that you just quoted, but opposition says that not enough is | :05:44. | :05:49. | |
being done and that the reorganisation of the NHS is putting | :05:50. | :05:56. | |
patients lives at risk. Hospitals are getting busier, experts say that | :05:57. | :05:59. | |
that is an accident, but with winter coming to that week an accident, but | :06:00. | :06:02. | |
with winter coming couldn't we to an emergency? A has been a victim of | :06:03. | :06:09. | |
its own success. The targets have led to huge improvements in the | :06:10. | :06:13. | |
quality of service. We are not in crisis, we're getting busier. That | :06:14. | :06:17. | |
is for a multitude of reasons. There is a perception that Haitians cannot | :06:18. | :06:21. | |
see their GPs. The population is getting older `` the patients. The | :06:22. | :06:28. | |
population at the end of the day will always go for the lights on and | :06:29. | :06:33. | |
they are on 24 hours a day, seven days a week. People need more than | :06:34. | :06:38. | |
just the lights to be on. This hospital is finding ways to reduce | :06:39. | :06:41. | |
the burden on the A department. The ambulatory Ward hopes to ease | :06:42. | :06:48. | |
bed blocking. There are certain conditions that can be treated | :06:49. | :06:51. | |
within our environment. They can have their treatment and then go off | :06:52. | :06:56. | |
on that night and hopefully not have to come back again. Patients say | :06:57. | :07:01. | |
that it is a calmer environment as well. If I was an A they probably | :07:02. | :07:08. | |
would be able to do something, but it is the whole atmosphere that | :07:09. | :07:14. | |
makes the difference. Experts say that others have a role to play in | :07:15. | :07:19. | |
cutting patient numbers. A distrusted, people feel safe in A | :07:20. | :07:25. | |
and people have become, check `` have become much more impatient. | :07:26. | :07:29. | |
They want instant answers and solutions. They do not ask people | :07:30. | :07:34. | |
for help. That is why we need to give them information so that they | :07:35. | :07:37. | |
know how to look after themselves. There may be no cure for the | :07:38. | :07:41. | |
ever`increasing demand an agency mac services, but it is hoped that | :07:42. | :07:45. | |
preventing unnecessary admissions and long`term stays could help. | :07:46. | :07:51. | |
Staff shortages is something that is often talked about. Here they have a | :07:52. | :07:54. | |
vacancy for two nurses which they say they are confident they will | :07:55. | :07:58. | |
fill quickly, but it is doctors that they are having slightly more of a | :07:59. | :08:01. | |
problem with. Locum doctors here are very much filling the gap. As winter | :08:02. | :08:07. | |
deepens this is going to be an issue that becomes more and more important | :08:08. | :08:12. | |
and those preventative ways of avoiding patients coming here in the | :08:13. | :08:15. | |
first place is something that I think we will be hearing a lot more | :08:16. | :08:20. | |
about. In a moment: As 12 children's | :08:21. | :08:24. | |
centres are slated to close in Kent to save money, how the council says | :08:25. | :08:28. | |
the most vulnerable will still be protected. | :08:29. | :08:33. | |
A Kent man facing trial in Uganda because he's in a gay relationship | :08:34. | :08:37. | |
has tonight said he fears he will be deported after officials seized his | :08:38. | :08:39. | |
passport and refused a visa extension. | :08:40. | :08:42. | |
Bernard Randall from Faversham has pleaded not guilty | :08:43. | :08:44. | |
"trafficking obscene publications" after videos of him in a gay | :08:45. | :08:48. | |
relationship appeared in a newspaper in a Ugandan newspaper. | :08:49. | :09:01. | |
Claudia Sermbezis has more. After Bernard Randall reported a | :09:02. | :09:04. | |
burglary at the house he was staying with in Uganda, he found himself the | :09:05. | :09:08. | |
one in the dock accused of so`called gay crimes. He knew his Visa was | :09:09. | :09:11. | |
coming to an end. He sought to renew it with a letter from police, but | :09:12. | :09:22. | |
his application was refused. Senior people want me out here. This is a | :09:23. | :09:27. | |
way of getting out of the country without it being seen as an | :09:28. | :09:35. | |
anti`home a sexual thing. , sexual and `` homosexual acts are illegal | :09:36. | :09:40. | |
in Uganda. I have, it is to tell you that what you are indulging in is | :09:41. | :09:52. | |
hurting their lives. They are not morally bad in the rise, I am as a | :09:53. | :09:58. | |
homosexual. It is just part of his campaign against homosexuals. He | :09:59. | :10:02. | |
wanted to get me deported, that is what he has been working on. There | :10:03. | :10:07. | |
has been a shift in Uganda in the past five years in which attitudes | :10:08. | :10:14. | |
in the public and attitudes towards homosexuality have now been | :10:15. | :10:18. | |
transformed to the extent that there is now a virulent hatred of people | :10:19. | :10:25. | |
who are gay. Bernard Randall had expected to face several years more | :10:26. | :10:30. | |
in Uganda. Now he fears he could be deported at any time. Lead put me in | :10:31. | :10:38. | |
the cell until the first available freight out of the country. Whatever | :10:39. | :10:42. | |
I happened to be wearing, that was all I had. He had hoped to build a | :10:43. | :10:48. | |
new life for himself after his partner's death. Now he fears that | :10:49. | :10:54. | |
his future is uncertain. Students are occupying a building at | :10:55. | :10:57. | |
the University of Sussex for the second time in a year. | :10:58. | :11:01. | |
They say the action is against working conditions for staff at | :11:02. | :11:03. | |
universities across the country. Last April a seven`week occupation | :11:04. | :11:06. | |
of a university building led to clashes between students, police and | :11:07. | :11:09. | |
bailiffs. An inquest into the death of a 53`year`old man who was knocked | :11:10. | :11:13. | |
down and killed on the M25 has recorded a verdict that he died as a | :11:14. | :11:16. | |
result of a road`traffic accident. Nahinmu Nicholas from Dartford died | :11:17. | :11:20. | |
after having a row with his wife, who was driving the car in the early | :11:21. | :11:24. | |
hours of April 10th. Mr Nicholas got out of the car on the hard shoulder | :11:25. | :11:28. | |
not realising that it was being used as a live lane due to roadworks. | :11:29. | :11:34. | |
A Kent prison is facing "unprecedented" problems with drugs, | :11:35. | :11:37. | |
bullying and violence ` with high numbers of male prisoners at | :11:38. | :11:39. | |
Blantyre House in Cranbrook with nothing to do but "mill about the | :11:40. | :11:45. | |
house or sleep the day away." The highly critical report by the | :11:46. | :11:48. | |
Independent Monitoring Board comes just weeks after Maidstone Prison | :11:49. | :11:51. | |
was put under lockdown as riot police were called in to quell a | :11:52. | :12:02. | |
disturbance. Lucinda Adam reports. Until recently Blantyre House was | :12:03. | :12:06. | |
praised for it to excess rehabilitating prisoners nearing the | :12:07. | :12:09. | |
end of their sentence and preparing them for public life. No wonder | :12:10. | :12:13. | |
measure to take on more difficult prisoners, it is a different story. | :12:14. | :12:19. | |
The report says that the prisoners being degraded by those who are | :12:20. | :12:22. | |
unsuited to the regime. There have been unprecedented problems with | :12:23. | :12:26. | |
drugs, bullying and violence. There are high numbers of men who have | :12:27. | :12:28. | |
nothing to do, who know about the house or have nothing to do and | :12:29. | :12:33. | |
sleep the day away. There have been two nonfatal stabbings, a sex | :12:34. | :12:46. | |
assault. This man spent two years at Blantyre House at the end of a life | :12:47. | :12:51. | |
sentence in 2010. If I was in prison now and around those kind of people, | :12:52. | :12:54. | |
I would not want to be in prison. I would want to be in the closed | :12:55. | :12:59. | |
prison where it is safer. You have less chance of losing your parole. | :13:00. | :13:03. | |
This prison is supposed to prepare offenders for release by getting | :13:04. | :13:07. | |
them back into employment, but last summer only 36 of the 122 inmates | :13:08. | :13:13. | |
here were working and buy this year that had fallen to just 18. The | :13:14. | :13:20. | |
devil makes work for idle hands, as they say, and people will get into | :13:21. | :13:24. | |
trouble. This comes in the same month as riot police tackled a major | :13:25. | :13:35. | |
riot at Maidstone Prison. In a statement, the Ministry of Justice | :13:36. | :13:47. | |
said that assault and abscond levels that Blantyre House are amongst the | :13:48. | :13:50. | |
lowest in the country. They will take action against anyone who | :13:51. | :13:52. | |
threatens the safety and security of the prison. | :13:53. | :14:06. | |
Our top story: Major engineering works will mean massive disruption | :14:07. | :14:09. | |
to train services right through the Christmas period. | :14:10. | :14:11. | |
The Gatwick Express will temporarily shut down and the journey between | :14:12. | :14:14. | |
Brighton and London could take some two and a half hours. | :14:15. | :14:25. | |
And the dinosaur that has been sold for ?400,000 in Suffolk. | :14:26. | :14:29. | |
What is the rest of the week looking like? Join me for the forecast. If | :14:30. | :14:39. | |

It's been confirmed that 12 children's centres are to close in | :15:02. | :15:04. | |
Kent as part of a cost`cutting drive. | :15:05. | :15:06. | |
Eleven others, which were originally earmarked for closure, will now be | :15:07. | :15:09. | |
spared. The new proposals will cost an extra ?500,000 over two years, | :15:10. | :15:12. | |
but council bosses claim they've listened to ensure the most | :15:13. | :15:15. | |
vulnerable don't lose out. Peter Whittlesea reports. | :15:16. | :15:18. | |
Initial plans to close children's centres in Kent have been scaled | :15:19. | :15:23. | |
back, is it a sign of compassion or a U`turn from local politicians | :15:24. | :15:27. | |
following mounting opposition from parents against the proposal to | :15:28. | :15:35. | |
close the centres. We have had a rethink. There were clearly a number | :15:36. | :15:40. | |
of centres that were a vital part of the local communities. I have | :15:41. | :15:44. | |
pledged today that when we do close the 12 centres that we will operate | :15:45. | :15:48. | |
services either within the same buildings over a shorter period or | :15:49. | :15:51. | |
we will look for alternative community venues nearby. But the | :15:52. | :15:55. | |
Unite union which represents staff working at the centres said in a | :15:56. | :16:00. | |
statement that they would urge the council to rethink its proposal. And | :16:01. | :16:11. | |
mothers who use the centres say that they will continue to fight to save | :16:12. | :16:16. | |
services. It is a step in the right direction. We do welcome the centres | :16:17. | :16:22. | |
that will remain open. We are concerned about the 12 that will | :16:23. | :16:25. | |
close, leaving these children with possibly a worse start in life. That | :16:26. | :16:31. | |
is why we have called for a demonstration outside Maidstone | :16:32. | :16:34. | |
County Hall. The county council claims that no one will lose out | :16:35. | :16:39. | |
because the same services are available at different centres. Some | :16:40. | :16:42. | |
families will have to travel if their nearest centre is earmarked | :16:43. | :16:53. | |
for closure. Buyers from across the world have | :16:54. | :16:56. | |
descended on the small West Sussex village of Billingshurst to bid for | :16:57. | :16:59. | |
a very rare, near`complete dinosaur skeleton. Meet Misty, 17 metres long | :17:00. | :17:05. | |
and around 150 million years old. An almost complete diplodocus fossil. | :17:06. | :17:19. | |
It was found in a quarry in Wyoming in America and was up for auction | :17:20. | :17:25. | |
here in the South East. It went for a price tag of ?400,000. Our | :17:26. | :17:27. | |
reporter Jane Witherspoon spent the day with the movers and shakers of | :17:28. | :17:36. | |
the palaeontology world. At ?400,000, I am selling. At | :17:37. | :17:44. | |
?400,000, and sold, for ?400,000. Not bad for a set of bones. | :17:45. | :17:49. | |
That is how much this fossilised dinosaur sold foreign Sussex today. | :17:50. | :17:53. | |
It is the first time that a large dinosaur has been offered for sale | :17:54. | :17:59. | |
in Britain. The 150 million `year`old skeleton was part of a lot | :18:00. | :18:02. | |
created by a Tunbridge Wells resident. Why would anyone want | :18:03. | :18:08. | |
this? One, it is intrinsically interesting, too it is spectacular, | :18:09. | :18:14. | |
three, it will impress your friends. It heals from the Jurassic period. | :18:15. | :18:20. | |
They were docile creatures that grazed on plans. This specimen was | :18:21. | :18:24. | |
unearthed in America on private land, which meant that its export to | :18:25. | :18:30. | |
the UK was allowed. It has been a time`consuming process. It takes | :18:31. | :18:34. | |
days to take it apart and put it together again, prepare all of the | :18:35. | :18:42. | |
bones, etc. It was a long job. It is a female diplodocus and they have | :18:43. | :18:48. | |
nicknamed her Misty. She has twice the length of a double`decker bus. | :18:49. | :18:58. | |
There are only a handful of these fossils around the world. Even the | :18:59. | :19:02. | |
one at the National history Museum is a replica. We have so much more | :19:03. | :19:15. | |
to learn about diplodocus. Misty's buyers have been asked to `` have | :19:16. | :19:22. | |
asked to remain anonymous for the time being. She will eventually go | :19:23. | :19:40. | |
on display for all to see. A Brighton University graduate has | :19:41. | :19:44. | |
come up with a novel way for parents to treasure pictures of their | :19:45. | :19:47. | |
newborn babies by making photo frames using the mother's placenta. | :19:48. | :19:50. | |
Parents have found uses for the organ before, such as eating it for | :19:51. | :19:53. | |
health reasons, but Amanda Cotton has found a more "artistic" use for | :19:54. | :19:56. | |
this part of pregnancy. Mark Sanders has more. | :19:57. | :20:09. | |
Every picture tells a story but in this case it is the frame, it is | :20:10. | :20:15. | |
made from placenta. In other countries they see it as the twin or | :20:16. | :20:21. | |
the friend of the baby. In the UK we dismiss it. I wanted it to leak | :20:22. | :20:28. | |
pleasing to the eye. When you see it you perhaps don't expect it to be | :20:29. | :20:31. | |
the placenta. I did not want to shock people when they found out, | :20:32. | :20:34. | |
but just addressed their preconceptions. Amanda found a way | :20:35. | :20:39. | |
of adding dried and cut pieces of placenta to malt to create frames. | :20:40. | :20:45. | |
This is a prototype made from an animal's but one mother has already | :20:46. | :20:53. | |
got one on order. I can understand that people think it is a bit | :20:54. | :20:58. | |
disgusting, but it is going to be a really interesting thing to have and | :20:59. | :21:03. | |
once the child grows up to kind of explains what the will process is. | :21:04. | :21:10. | |
But will other mothers in Brighton put parts of our placenta on | :21:11. | :21:15. | |
display? Personally I think the idea of consuming it would have more | :21:16. | :21:19. | |
interesting results. Have you done that? And how would you feel? 15 | :21:20. | :21:32. | |
months on, I feel quite knackered. Perhaps burying it or something, but | :21:33. | :21:42. | |
I am not sure about a photo frame. Knitted booties or a Teddy it is | :21:43. | :21:50. | |
not, but it places the placenta centrestage. | :21:51. | :21:58. | |
It is a creative idea. On to football now and it was a busy | :21:59. | :22:02. | |
night for our sides. The Gills were involved in a | :22:03. | :22:04. | |
five`goal thriller, Charlton recorded a much`needed victory and | :22:05. | :22:07. | |
Crawley couldn't find the back of the net, resulting in their manager | :22:08. | :22:10. | |
Richie Barker parting ways with the club. Charlie Rose has more. | :22:11. | :22:18. | |
Charlton took full advantage of their second chance against | :22:19. | :22:21. | |
Doncaster at the Valley. The original game in August was | :22:22. | :22:26. | |
abandoned at half`time because of heavy rain, with the Yorkshire side | :22:27. | :22:31. | |
leading 3`1. The scoring was opened in style, then in the 16th minute | :22:32. | :22:39. | |
Simon Church sealed the win. A welcome boost for Charlton. In | :22:40. | :22:44. | |
League one, Gillian beat Stevenage 3`2. | :22:45. | :22:52. | |
`` Gillingham. How about this from a man making his debut. Daniels | :22:53. | :22:59. | |
delighted the home crowd to make it 2`0. Three points were secured for | :23:00. | :23:11. | |
gelling. They were traffic. A great set piece and a great header. The | :23:12. | :23:21. | |
Reds recent record in League one has not been outstanding. | :23:22. | :23:26. | |
Late this afternoon news that manager Richie Barker has been | :23:27. | :23:42. | |
sacked after 15 months in the job. Spare a thought for Gillingham club | :23:43. | :23:45. | |
captain Adam Barratt, who managed to miss an open goal from one yard out. | :23:46. | :23:49. | |
You can see the ball hooked back across, in comes Barratt, and over | :23:50. | :23:53. | |
the bar. Good job the Gills won the game. I'm sure he's had to put up | :23:54. | :23:57. | |
with a fair bit of banter in the dressing room. To be fair, he's a | :23:58. | :24:04. | |
defender, and clearing the ball off the line is what they are trained to | :24:05. | :24:15. | |
do. Let us take a look at the weather. | :24:16. | :24:22. | |
Today, Misty and murky, a lot of cloud around. Over the next couple | :24:23. | :24:33. | |
of days a bit of a shift. Highs of around 10 degrees. As we go into | :24:34. | :24:36. | |
Friday we have got a shift. It will be much cooler, that westerly breeze | :24:37. | :24:44. | |
will pick up and almost gale force well and `` as well. It has stayed | :24:45. | :24:51. | |
dull throughout the day, there has been mist and Mark, particularly in | :24:52. | :24:54. | |
the morning. Temperatures creeping up. They did hit about ten on the | :24:55. | :25:00. | |
south coast. The winds are always very light, and relatively mild day. | :25:01. | :25:08. | |
Tonight we will stay frost free. A lot of cloud around. Really quite a | :25:09. | :25:12. | |
damp picture. Just look at these temperatures. Only dropping several | :25:13. | :25:18. | |
degrees from the daytime values. As we have seen at the beginning of the | :25:19. | :25:26. | |
week, overnight lows. Six or seven Celsius. Very mild as we start the | :25:27. | :25:30. | |
day on Thursday. We still have this area of high pressure, that will be | :25:31. | :25:34. | |
pushing its way westwards. The kid just be a little bit of patchy rain | :25:35. | :25:40. | |
and drizzle, particularly as we go through the afternoon. A very grey | :25:41. | :25:44. | |
start to the day and it stays in that vein as we head into the | :25:45. | :25:46. | |
afternoon. Temperatures little milder than they were at the | :25:47. | :25:50. | |
beginning of the week. Heading temperatures of around eight or nine | :25:51. | :25:56. | |
degrees. Very light winds, still from a northerly direction it will | :25:57. | :26:01. | |
be feeling very cold. Again as we go through tomorrow night, relatively | :26:02. | :26:03. | |
mild. Temperatures will mean dropping to around five or six | :26:04. | :26:07. | |
degrees. Mist and fog patches forming. When the cloud gets | :26:08. | :26:13. | |
particularly thick we might see some light patches of rain and drizzle. | :26:14. | :26:18. | |
Mostly dry as we start the day on Friday. The winds now from a | :26:19. | :26:21. | |
north`westerly direction are really going to be sickening. `` | :26:22. | :26:30. | |
quickening. Picking up 20`25 miles. We have some rain, then behind at a | :26:31. | :26:37. | |
showery picture. Temperatures around 10 degrees. It will be feeling | :26:38. | :26:40. | |
cooler than the temperatures suggest. On Saturday we will be | :26:41. | :26:46. | |
seeing more brightness, particularly in the morning, temperatures are | :26:47. | :26:51. | |
around 9`10 Celsius. Lots of cloud around, mostly dry. It stays that | :26:52. | :26:58. | |
way is going to the week as well. Letters recap tonight's top national | :26:59. | :27:07. | |
and local stories. David Cameron has defended his plans to curb the right | :27:08. | :27:10. | |
of EU migrants to receive benefits as soon as they arrive in Britain. | :27:11. | :27:14. | |
Travellers trying to use some of the South East's biggest travel hubs | :27:15. | :27:17. | |
over Christmas and New Year face major disruption. | :27:18. | :27:19. | |
The Gatwick Express will be closed with all express services set to be | :27:20. | :27:23. | |
cancelled. And a 55`foot specimen of the long`necked diplodocus went | :27:24. | :27:25. | |
under the hammer at Summers Place Auctions in West Sussex. | :27:26. | :27:27. | |
The female 19`feet`tall skeleton nicknamed Misty fetched a cool | :27:28. | :27:36. | |
?400,000. That's it from us. I will be back at | :27:37. | :27:41. | |
10:25pm. Goodbye. | :27:42. | :27:47. |
