:01:49. > :01:54.Langley was 56. Today, his wife said she had lost a loving and caring
:01:55. > :01:57.man. Unlike his killer, we cannot look forward to a parole date from
:01:58. > :02:03.the life sentence which has been imposed on me and my family. The
:02:04. > :02:08.cruel way he has been taken away has shattered us all. We have to try and
:02:09. > :02:14.live without him, and with the pain the death causes us all. He pleaded
:02:15. > :02:20.guilty to murder last month. The judge said he was certain on the
:02:21. > :02:24.29th of November Simon Olsen had set out with one intention, of killing
:02:25. > :02:28.Steven Langley. The court heard that Simon Olsen became convinced that

:02:49. > :02:53.shot Steven Langley with a double barrelled shotgun. Moments before
:02:54. > :03:00.the murder, Simon Olsen sent a text to his former partner.
:03:01. > :03:11.In a phone call to his son, he said... This was a cold`blooded

:04:36. > :04:43.His anxious, almost resigned look before the start of the game
:04:44. > :04:47.suggested all was not well, and he could only look on as Derby County
:04:48. > :04:50.took control of the game. He do that anything less than a victory would
:04:51. > :04:55.end their promotion hopes, and without a place in the Premier
:04:56. > :04:59.League and the money it would bring, he knew his budget for next season
:05:00. > :05:04.would be limited. As each goal went in, so his departure became
:05:05. > :05:09.increasingly inevitable. Having lost the Game 4`1, he was keen to point
:05:10. > :05:17.out how proud he was of his and the team's achievements. Not many people
:05:18. > :05:22.thought that we could reach the play`off. With all of the injuries
:05:23. > :05:32.and everything that happened during the season. It was a great
:05:33. > :05:36.achievement for us. The fans, unaware of his imminent except, did
:05:37. > :05:40.not hold him responsible. You are always struggling if you are down.
:05:41. > :05:46.But there is always next year. We have done it two seasons in a row, I
:05:47. > :05:53.am sure we can do it next year. Less than a year after the tawdry exit of
:05:54. > :05:56.Gus Poyet and only nine days after the euphoria following the late
:05:57. > :06:00.winner at Nottingham Forest, Brighton are again on the hunt for a
:06:01. > :06:06.manager, and the chairman knows the future of the club depends on
:06:07. > :06:12.finding and keeping the right man. Given the events of the weekend, is
:06:13. > :06:15.this a surprise? Yes, there was no hint of it yesterday, although
:06:16. > :06:22.speculation started last night that he might be unhappy. They are
:06:23. > :06:31.looking for their third manager in a year. Who the replacement be? Both
:06:32. > :06:36.Oscar Garcia and Gus Poyet were unknown before they joined, so we do
:06:37. > :06:42.not know. Tim Sherwood is likely to lose his job at Tottenham, he could
:06:43. > :06:46.be a replacement. He would be popular. Malky Mackay and Steve
:06:47. > :06:50.Clarke have experienced. The chairman will know who he is after,
:06:51. > :06:56.he will want to make sure this one stays, they need him for a couple of
:06:57. > :07:00.seasons, at least. In a moment, the leader of Thanet
:07:01. > :07:03.District Council resigns, weeks after a report criticised
:07:04. > :07:11.councillors for homophobia and bullying.
:07:12. > :07:14.More than 20 years after their houses were built, homeowners
:07:15. > :07:18.in a Kent town have been told that the soil in their gardens may be
:07:19. > :07:21.contaminated and the pollutants could pose a risk to their health.
:07:22. > :07:24.Tests will now to be carried out at more than 260 homes in
:07:25. > :07:27.Paddock Wood to see if chemicals and asbestos are present.
:07:28. > :07:30.Residents have been told to wash their hands after coming
:07:31. > :07:42.Liz Duckworth has always worn gloves when gardening. But now, there is
:07:43. > :07:47.more reason for others to do the same. Residents have received
:07:48. > :07:52.letters telling them the soil in their gardens may be contaminated. I
:07:53. > :07:59.received a letter, I thought, oh, I did not go ballistic. We are a
:08:00. > :08:05.communal garden. Animals do come in and out. We do occasionally have the
:08:06. > :08:10.children. That is my concern, with the children and animals. For these
:08:11. > :08:14.houses were built, this was used by a company making timber sheds and
:08:15. > :08:20.greenhouses. They used chemicals to treat some of the world. The council
:08:21. > :08:24.says it cannot be certain that any contaminated land was dealt with
:08:25. > :08:27.after the company left, so they are having to carry out tests to make
:08:28. > :08:33.sure there is not a risk to public health. The borough council is going
:08:34. > :08:37.to be testing for the presence of tiles and creosote, it is also
:08:38. > :08:40.thought the site could have been involved in asbestos material, so
:08:41. > :08:46.they will be looking for that, too. If you come in direct contact, they
:08:47. > :08:50.would be hazardous. We need to find out if there is anything still left
:08:51. > :08:55.or not that may present a risk to the people living there now. Janet
:08:56. > :09:00.Hilliard has more reason than most to be concerned, she is contracted
:09:01. > :09:05.to work on the gardens here. You could be slightly worried, in case
:09:06. > :09:09.it is anything but. I am digging the gardens all the time, I would have
:09:10. > :09:12.liked to have known about it. Samples will be taken from the
:09:13. > :09:15.gardens in the next few months, but it is still unclear who will be
:09:16. > :09:25.liable for making the ground safe if contaminants are found.
:09:26. > :09:28.New figures seem to suggest that part of East Sussex is
:09:29. > :09:31.the worst area in the country for diagnosing cancers early.
:09:32. > :09:33.Across the country, just under half of all the clinical`commissioning
:09:34. > :09:36.Eastbourne and Hastings has the lowest
:09:37. > :09:38.diagnosis of early`stage cancer, with just over a third detected.
:09:39. > :09:43.That compares with a national average across England of 41.6%.
:09:44. > :09:46.The best in the South East is Canterbury, with almost half of some
:09:47. > :09:53.The public`health body in East Sussex say they are focussing
:09:54. > :09:59.on ensuring people go to the doctor as early as possible.
:10:00. > :10:06.I would like to convey that we can do easy things in our everyday lives
:10:07. > :10:09.to reduce our risks of getting cancers. There are lots of simple
:10:10. > :10:13.steps we can take. So, how many people are affected
:10:14. > :10:15.by cancer? Every year, almost a quarter
:10:16. > :10:18.of a million people are diagnosed 50% of those are expected to
:10:19. > :10:23.live for ten years or more. And medical experts say that
:10:24. > :10:35.diagnosing early hugely It is important it is court as early
:10:36. > :10:39.as possible, it was our ability to treat it depends on catching it
:10:40. > :10:46.earlier. We want people to be diagnosed as soon as we can.
:10:47. > :10:54.How have the figures been received? The statistics should be interpreted
:10:55. > :11:00.with caution, 40% responded, so not the entire picture. Part of East
:11:01. > :11:03.Sussex came out as especially low, but when it comes to detecting
:11:04. > :11:07.cancer, it can come down to a multitude of reasons, certain parts
:11:08. > :11:12.of the country more susceptible to certain types than others, then a
:11:13. > :11:17.graphic, unemployment, somebody not wanting to visit their doctor.
:11:18. > :11:21.Charities have welcomed the stats, but they say there is a long way to
:11:22. > :11:22.go, but it shines a light on areas that need improving, so it is a step
:11:23. > :11:27.in the right direction. Those behind the figures, Public
:11:28. > :11:30.Health England, say the figures should be treated cautiously,
:11:31. > :11:33.because not all parts of the country However,

:12:14. > :12:16.Today, the chairman of Gatwick says that if Heathrow get another runway,
:12:17. > :12:20.it will give their investors a powerful monopoly, and he says it

:12:52. > :12:55.they want to see is Heathrow with two runways, Gatwick with two

:13:17. > :13:29.them for homophobia and bullying. A minority overshadowing the good
:13:30. > :13:31.work of the Council, those were among the reasons why Clive Hart has

:13:43. > :13:52.stop your shenanigans, saying politics with people's lives, jobs,
:13:53. > :13:55.careers, reputations. Stop now. This resignation is the latest storm to
:13:56. > :14:01.hit Thanet Council. In 2012, there were claims of infighting following
:14:02. > :14:06.an investigation by this programme. In March last year, the former
:14:07. > :14:09.leader was jailed for misconduct in public office. Last month, a damning

:14:29. > :14:31.ridiculous, that the people of the net can see that there are decisions
:14:32. > :14:36.being made that they have a right to know about. Is your behaviour
:14:37. > :14:44.toxic? Not at all, you can take me home to your mother any day of the
:14:45. > :14:47.week. I make very serious complaint. One commentator claimed this type of
:14:48. > :14:51.infighting turns the public of politics. It makes them think that
:14:52. > :14:54.politicians are in it for themselves, they behave in an
:14:55. > :15:02.infantile manner, and they are all the same. Amongst the issues that he
