:00:13. > :00:21.Brighton collapses into the sea as the south coast is lashed whth
:00:22. > :00:26.ferocious storms. I thought it would stand forever. It is only a matter
:00:27. > :00:29.of time now. The gales have brought down trees
:00:30. > :00:31.and power lines, and caused major travel disruption, with the Met

:01:23. > :01:27.Good evening. The ferocious gales that have battered the south coast
:01:28. > :01:31.overnight have caused a large piece of the west pier in Brighton to
:01:32. > :01:33.collapse into the sea. It ldaves the possibility of restoring thd
:01:34. > :01:37.Victorian Grade`I listed attraction very much in doubt. The iconic pier
:01:38. > :01:40.which was gutted by a fire hn 2 03, has been gradually losing p`rts of
:01:41. > :01:44.its metal skeleton ever since. But the latest chunk to go could spell
:01:45. > :01:47.the end for the structure. Lark Sanders is on Brighton seafront now.
:01:48. > :01:55.Mark, the weather really has taken its toll?
:01:56. > :02:00.Yes, significant damage to the historic West Pier. During the day,
:02:01. > :02:04.people have been coming down to take photographs and to inspect ht. In
:02:05. > :02:12.effect, what has happened, the weather has amputated part of it,
:02:13. > :02:19.severing away part of the structure. Brought down by the storm, `nd
:02:20. > :02:23.swallowed by the sea. A significant section of the West Pier has gone,
:02:24. > :02:29.and it puts in jeopardy the rest of the structure. The eastern section
:02:30. > :02:33.has taken a terrible batterhng, and a section of it collapsed in the
:02:34. > :02:43.late summer last year, and H think it is just got weaker and wdaker and
:02:44. > :02:45.this terrible wind overnight is continuing unfortunately, and it has
:02:46. > :02:49.taken its toll. I think loghc would suggest that it will accelerate and
:02:50. > :02:53.collapse is. The damage was first spotted at low tide this morning by
:02:54. > :02:57.contractors working on the seafront. Several of supporting piles were
:02:58. > :03:05.swept away overnight, leading the Pavilion over this earth. `` over
:03:06. > :03:10.the sea. Little bits fall off throughout the year, but thhs is the
:03:11. > :03:14.biggest chunk to date. The weather has been getting worse throtghout
:03:15. > :03:19.the day. Every gust of wind that hits it, every wave that cr`shes
:03:20. > :03:24.against it is just increasing the risk of a further collapse hs. The
:03:25. > :03:28.structure has been slowly ddclining for decades. The West Pier closed or
:03:29. > :03:36.than 30 years ago because of safety peers. `` fears. In 2002, the
:03:37. > :03:45.concert will collapsed into the sea during a storm, and in 2003, it was
:03:46. > :03:49.destroyed by fire. This was once a pleasure palace, with gener`tions
:03:50. > :03:55.enjoying the simple pleasurds of the seaside. It may now be a skdleton,
:03:56. > :03:59.but the West Pier is still held in affection by many people in this
:04:00. > :04:05.city by the sea. With those who wanted to record this moment in its
:04:06. > :04:09.history. You have to wonder how long the structure were last in this
:04:10. > :04:15.weather. I thought it would last forever, but it is only a m`tter of
:04:16. > :04:18.time now. I went on it when it was still crumbling away, so, it is
:04:19. > :04:24.quite sad to see what is left of it now. The city may now be watching
:04:25. > :04:29.the end of the pier show, there is no certainty how long this structure
:04:30. > :04:33.can remain intact. This gale force wind is continuing
:04:34. > :04:37.to health through Brighton `nd Hove tonight, and we simply do not know
:04:38. > :04:40.what state the West Pier will be in by the morning. Lots of people
:04:41. > :04:44.coming down to take photogr`phs some of them getting quite frankly,
:04:45. > :04:48.too close to the water, and the police have issued another warning
:04:49. > :04:52.that if you are going to cole down and inspect the West Pier, keep as
:04:53. > :04:55.safe away from the water 's edge as possible.
:04:56. > :04:58.Winds in excess of 70 mph h`ve been battering many parts of the south
:04:59. > :05:01.east leading to disruption for motorists, train travellers and
:05:02. > :05:04.those using the ferries. An amber weather warning has been issued by
:05:05. > :05:12.the Met Office who say heavx rain is expected over the next few days
:05:13. > :05:17.Simon Jones is in Dover, and there have been some significant delays on
:05:18. > :05:21.the ferry services and a trhcky day forgetting about, all in all. Delays
:05:22. > :05:26.of over an hour on the ferrx services, they have been ushng tugs
:05:27. > :05:31.to make sure that they can get in and out of the port safely. Today, a
:05:32. > :05:35.double whammy, the rain that has been causing so many problels in
:05:36. > :05:38.recent weeks, add to that the wind, and it has really been a torturous
:05:39. > :05:48.ordeal for those people tridd to get about. Battered by the elemdnts at
:05:49. > :05:54.sea, and on the shore. Travdl has been difficult, resulting in
:05:55. > :05:58.drenching and delays. It is pretty treacherous, probably the worst I
:05:59. > :06:05.have seen its down here. Can we go inside? ! There were gusts of up to
:06:06. > :06:13.70 mph on the coast, some trains in Sussex had to reduce their speed to
:06:14. > :06:17.50 mph and commuters heading to the capital had to content with a
:06:18. > :06:24.48`hour tube strike, if you add in signalling problems, it has been a
:06:25. > :06:29.difficult day. It is a nightmare getting home, and I have to go to
:06:30. > :06:32.work, so it is a nightmare. So frustrating, had been waiting for an
:06:33. > :06:38.hour, it means I will be late for work. It is not good. Just have to
:06:39. > :06:43.accept it, I'm going home on a minute, just have to accept the
:06:44. > :06:47.problems and get on with it. The roads close, a landslide in Dover
:06:48. > :06:53.that led to a wall collapsing last week were still being dealt with
:06:54. > :06:56.today. Trees down in rivers, in Tonbridge, our battle to relove it,
:06:57. > :07:03.so it doesn't lead to block`ges and flooding. We have had these strong
:07:04. > :07:07.winds repeatedly. A lot of trees have come down in Tonbridge, and it
:07:08. > :07:11.is a risk that has occurred across the region. As commuters attempted
:07:12. > :07:14.to head home tonight, southdastern trains has thanked them for their
:07:15. > :07:18.patience on what has been another trying day.
:07:19. > :07:24.The big problem with the tr`ins tonight is that XL, that is because
:07:25. > :07:33.of flooding. So the sterner trying to run as many services as possible.
:07:34. > :07:37.`` the big problem with the trains tonight is at Bexhill. From 10am
:07:38. > :07:41.tomorrow, heavy rain is expdcted and that could lead to more spedd
:07:42. > :07:47.restrictions. We will keep an eye on it.
:07:48. > :07:51.Well, we'll have a full fordcast with Rachel later in the programme,
:07:52. > :07:54.but you can keep up to date with the latest travel and weather shtuation
:07:55. > :08:03.by tuning into your local BBC radio station or logging onto our
:08:04. > :08:07.websites. Coming up later, ` surprising discovery, held high`tech
:08:08. > :08:08.science has revealed the African origins of a 2000 year`old skull
:08:09. > :08:20.found in Eastbourne. A Sussex woman who became addicted
:08:21. > :08:24.to tanning and used a sun bdd every day for three years has been talking
:08:25. > :08:27.about how a huge tumour on her face has now left her scarred for life.
:08:28. > :08:30.Anna Taylor developed skin cancer after spending around 900 hours
:08:31. > :08:33.tanning in her spare room. Surgeons at the Queen Victoria
:08:34. > :08:37.Hospital in East Grinstead were forced to cut a chunk out of her
:08:38. > :08:41.face to remove the tissue. Now she wants to warn others of the dangers.
:08:42. > :08:45.Piers Hopkirk reports. Every time she looks in the mirror,
:08:46. > :08:50.Anna Taylor is reminded of the price she's had to pay for a tan. The scar
:08:51. > :08:54.on her face, left after surgeons removed a cancerous tumour. She
:08:55. > :09:02.believes it was caused by excessive use of a sun bed. It was terrifying,
:09:03. > :09:08.knowing that the only way for this to be removed was to have strgery on
:09:09. > :09:11.my face, which, you know, a young girl, vain, bothered about her
:09:12. > :09:16.appearance, to know that wotld be a surgical procedure on my face was
:09:17. > :09:21.horrible. I had 29th two chders going from under my eye all the way
:09:22. > :09:25.down in a bend to the corner of my mouth. Anna was diagnosed whth a
:09:26. > :09:28.skin cancer last year. Surgdons at the Queen Victoria Hospital in East
:09:29. > :09:32.Grinstead were forced to cut it out. After buying a sun bed, she admits
:09:33. > :09:39.she'd used it six nights a week for three years. It is so awful thinking
:09:40. > :09:42.about it now. I would get in from work and still half an hour each
:09:43. > :09:48.side, I would drift off, it was very relaxing. I was turned over and do
:09:49. > :09:55.another half an hour. It was one hour per night. You aware of the
:09:56. > :09:59.damage she were causing yourself? I thought, I am not in the sun, I am
:10:00. > :10:04.not burning, I'm not doing `ny harm, which is ridiculous to think. Anna's
:10:05. > :10:07.cancer is called Basal Cell Carcinoma. The commonest catse `
:10:08. > :10:14.excessive exposure to ultra violet light. Research has shown that
:10:15. > :10:19.damage to the skin before the age of 35 is the most amateur in, the use
:10:20. > :10:22.of sunbeds before the age of 35 can increase the risk of melanola, the
:10:23. > :10:31.most serious form of skin c`ncer by 75%. There definitely needs to be a
:10:32. > :10:33.comma and in the same way that warnings are put on cigarette
:10:34. > :10:39.packets, where ever you are, the tanning salon, the needs to be
:10:40. > :10:47.warnings and pictures on thd wall to wall it is a real danger. `` to warn
:10:48. > :10:51.it is a real danger. In a world where a tan is seen as a sylbol of
:10:52. > :10:55.good health, Anna Taylor knows it can come at a hugely high price
:10:56. > :10:58.A 17`year`old has been arrested after running away when a stspected
:10:59. > :11:02.stolen car smashed into the front of a house in Portslade. An Audi TT

:11:21. > :11:22.U`turn on plans to change the Freedom pass being used by
:11:23. > :11:26.schoolchildren. The change would have loved lots of parents out of
:11:27. > :11:29.pocket. It's been confirmed that anx council
:11:30. > :11:33.wanting to raise council tax by more than 2% will have to put thdir plans
:11:34. > :11:36.to a local referendum. It mdans Brighton and Hove Council whll
:11:37. > :11:39.definitely have to put their proposed council tax increase of
:11:40. > :11:44.4.75% to a public vote. Our Political Editor Louise Stewart is
:11:45. > :11:47.in Westminster. Louise, is Brighton and Hove the only local authority
:11:48. > :11:57.that wants to increase council tax above the 2% threshold?
:11:58. > :12:01.Well, many councils would lhke to increase their council tax, but the
:12:02. > :12:05.Communities Secretary is urging them to freeze their council tax again
:12:06. > :12:10.for a third year. Some of the councils, including Kent and
:12:11. > :12:14.Medway, they are looking to raise theirs by 1.99%, that means it would
:12:15. > :12:19.fall below the threshold of 2% which would trigger a referendum. However,
:12:20. > :12:22.Ryton and Toby is the only council so far as saying that there would
:12:23. > :12:30.have to be a referendum, because they are asking to ask if they
:12:31. > :12:35.should increase tax by 4.75$. `` Brighton and Hove is the only
:12:36. > :12:39.council. The wrapping calls for the leader of the council to st`nd
:12:40. > :12:44.aside. He says he is not gohng anywhere. If there is to be a
:12:45. > :12:48.referendum, it would be held in May, the same day as the European

:13:43. > :13:45.nervous before a race? Todax, she was answering questions at her old
:13:46. > :13:52.school. It was here at the skills that they first noticed her failing
:13:53. > :13:55.sight. She pointed out that she could not see the blackboard. She
:13:56. > :14:01.seemed to be struggling. It was then we realise that she had lost the
:14:02. > :14:08.sight. So, she was here and they coped with it amazingly well. There
:14:09. > :14:14.was no drama. As a child, she ingested a parasite found in animal
:14:15. > :14:18.faeces by accident. She started losing her sight at three ydars
:14:19. > :14:23.old, now she is ranked 12th in the world, as she's the youngest ever
:14:24. > :14:27.British Paralympic Ian. The trial people in front of me are
:14:28. > :14:32.incredible, so when I go to Sochi, it is purely for the experidnce I'm
:14:33. > :14:37.aiming to come may be higher than last, so if I come second l`st, I
:14:38. > :14:42.would be very happy. I wasn't expecting to get a place on the
:14:43. > :14:49.team. I thought that I might get on the wild card. It is amazing.
:14:50. > :14:59.Especially when you realise that she has gone from competitive r`ce to
