:05:53. > :06:09.said about this crime? And police say this crime did not
:06:10. > :06:11.only shocked the community but also shocked the experienced Keenan who
:06:12. > :06:16.carried out the investigation. They said the woman had two kettles
:06:17. > :06:21.boiling water poured over her. Her burns and injuries worse to horrific
:06:22. > :06:25.they could have been fatal. That led to her spending at least a couple of
:06:26. > :06:30.months in intensive care. But they then went on to say that both of the

:08:28. > :08:29.Well, of course, that's historically been the case,

:08:37. > :08:38.to the French and to buy energy at a lower price
:08:39. > :08:43.That ends up with a bigger market that is more secure

:09:07. > :09:08.a desire to use it for more than just trains.

:09:22. > :09:24.Simon, 300 jobs are being created in the construction phase,
:09:25. > :09:39.Well, those 300 jobs will be largely British jobs according to Eurotunnel
:09:40. > :09:45.and once the project is completed in three years' time, there will be 40
:09:46. > :09:50.permanent jobs overseeing this new power link. Eurotunnel will make
:09:51. > :09:53.money by selling on this excess energy. Interestingly, research

:10:00. > :10:04.France, it's rather later, at 7pm and is that these peak times we may

:10:51. > :10:56.are misguided and risk creating huge discrepancies

:11:03. > :11:04.will continue to lose out under the government's
:11:05. > :11:07.new national funding formula. A campaign group representing 40
:11:08. > :11:11.councils in England, including Kent and West Sussex,
:11:12. > :11:14.says the formula will leave some schools without enough money
:11:15. > :11:17.to cover basic running costs. But the former chief inspector
:11:18. > :11:20.of schools says headteachers should be prepared to adjust
:11:21. > :11:23.to tighter budgets. Our education correspondent

:11:44. > :11:48.your? The Government says the new funding formula will be fairer but a
:11:49. > :11:52.group representing councils in the lowest funding areas in England says
:11:53. > :11:57.schools in disadvantaged areas will get too much money. Kent County
:11:58. > :12:01.Council is part of the group. High school in a high performing area
:12:02. > :12:05.where prior attainment may have been good, if you compare the budgets per
:12:06. > :12:12.pupil of a secondary school on the edge of Tunbridge Wells, about ?4300
:12:13. > :12:17.per pupil, and in the most deprived areas where the pupil premium is
:12:18. > :12:21.already being spent big time, you're talking about ?704,000 per pupil and
:12:22. > :12:33.I don't think that that differential can be right or justified. -- ?7,400
:12:34. > :12:36.per pupil. School governors have threatened their first-rate in
:12:37. > :12:42.history. In a lot of cases, high performing schools have been hit
:12:43. > :12:45.hardest. This grammar school in Maidstone cut German and Latin over
:12:46. > :12:49.a year ago. Writing that letter to parents saying we are going to have
:12:50. > :12:53.to cut subjects, how difficult was that as a teacher? Did it go get
:12:54. > :12:58.every grain of you being? Very much against the grain. Something like
:12:59. > :13:01.that which I had actually introduced into the school and talking to the
:13:02. > :13:04.students and trying to explain things is incredibly tough decision
:13:05. > :13:09.to have to make. But some say schools had its good for a long
:13:10. > :13:13.time. There has been largess in the system. Schools have been well
:13:14. > :13:18.funded over the last 20 years and school budgets have been ring
:13:19. > :13:22.fenced. We are seeing constraints now. The Government says it is based
:13:23. > :13:24.on a child's need rather than their postcode. There is a month left for
:13:25. > :13:28.schools to make their case. Bryony MacKenzie is
:13:29. > :13:29.here in the studio. South East MPs say they're
:13:30. > :13:38.continuing to lobby the Government Absolutely. The West Sussex MPs have

:17:17. > :17:21.debate, we can shorten the time scale between when a crime occurs
:17:22. > :17:27.and when restorative justice can go on. The Police and Crime
:17:28. > :17:31.Commissioner agrees. We cannot just keep locking people up because they

:22:58. > :23:01.was an option for me, really. I always enjoyed drawing
:23:02. > :23:03.stuff like that. Going from 2-D to 3-D,
:23:04. > :23:06.that was quite a change because obviously if you're drawing
:23:07. > :23:11.a picture or doing a tattoo, it's only got to look
:23:12. > :23:16.right from one angle, you've got to move that

:23:25. > :23:36.significant disruption The QE2 Bridge in
:23:37. > :23:39.Dartford has been closed because of the gale force winds,
:23:40. > :23:44.along with the Sheppey Crossing. Fallen trees have blocked roads
:23:45. > :23:48.in Kent and Sussex and trains have been disrupted with passengers

:23:52. > :23:56.than two-hours for Cross-Channel ferry passengers,
:23:57. > :23:58.but the storm has inspired including this snap of the waves
:23:59. > :24:14.in Hastings by Jon Wilhelm. So, let's get the forecast now with
:24:15. > :24:18.Georgina. Have we seen the end of Doris?
:24:19. > :24:19.Not quite yet. We are not out of the woods. There are still gusty winds
:24:20. > :24:28.continuing. Widespread gale force winds. Gusts
:24:29. > :24:32.of up to 60 mph and there is still a yellow warning in place. That is
:24:33. > :24:35.until 8pm this evening set by the Met office. We have still got some
:24:36. > :24:39.strong winds out there but it will taper off as we had through this
:24:40. > :24:44.evening. I have to say, great photos out there on social media. Not too
:24:45. > :24:49.many showing the effects of Doris on weather watchers but this was taken
:24:50. > :24:52.in Kent so that really shows how choppy the waters were. Another
:24:53. > :24:59.coastal one here taken in East Sussex. I was hoping to see wheelie
:25:00. > :25:03.bins turned over and all that sort of thing so if you have good photos
:25:04. > :25:06.from today, do post them on the weather watchers site because we
:25:07. > :25:10.would love to see those. As we head to this evening as I said, wind
:25:11. > :25:13.speeds gradually tapering off through this evening. A few showers
:25:14. > :25:18.coming and going but under clear skies, temperatures will be dropping
:25:19. > :25:23.off quite rapidly to around three Celsius and we may have frost in
:25:24. > :25:29.more rural spots as well. Tomorrow, a very different day altogether.
:25:30. > :25:32.Lots of blue sky on offer. Lighter winds as well. Feeling quite
:25:33. > :25:37.pleasant but on the cooler side. Temperatures getting up to seven or
:25:38. > :25:41.eight Celsius. Today we reached ten or 11 across-the-board some a few
:25:42. > :25:44.degrees below but probably feeling quite pleasant in comparison with
:25:45. > :25:49.today. As we go through tomorrow evening, it does cloud over again.
:25:50. > :25:53.We could see some rain overnight as well, nothing too significant.
:25:54. > :25:57.Temperatures down to five or six Celsius and we start Saturday on
:25:58. > :26:01.quite a mild note. A dreary day. Windy again as well. Temperatures
:26:02. > :26:06.getting up to nine or ten, quite cloudy and Rizzoli. Overnight
:26:07. > :26:12.though, that's when we see significant rain and Sunday is a
:26:13. > :26:15.fairly similar picture, so still quite cloudy, breezy, temperatures
:26:16. > :26:20.up to ten or 11 degrees. As we go into next week, we start off on that
:26:21. > :26:24.mild note but temperatures will gradually taper off as we had
:26:25. > :26:29.through the week and it is going to be very unsettled so quite bright at
:26:30. > :26:32.times but shower was never really far away. Certainly a lot calmer as
:26:33. > :26:41.we had through next week but this is just a forecast and really case as
:26:42. > :26:43.R. -- what will be will be. A Doris Day reference there!
:26:44. > :26:45.Before we go, let's recap tonight's top stories...
:26:46. > :26:47.A woman has been killed by flying debris in Wolverhampton,
:26:48. > :26:50.as Storm Doris has caused havoc across the UK,

:26:56. > :26:57.Kent surgeon Mohammed Sait is under investigation over allegations
:26:58. > :27:00.that he carried out unnecessary operations
:27:01. > :27:03.for his own financial gain at Fawkham Manor Hospital
:27:04. > :27:09.And two burglars who broke into a family home in a Kent
:27:10. > :27:11.village, and tortured their elderly victims for hours -
:27:12. > :27:14.pouring boiling water over them - have pleaded guilty to burglary
:27:15. > :27:27.Well, that's about it from as this evening. Don't forget, you can send
:27:28. > :27:28.us photos on our Facebook page and weather watchers as well. Goodbye.
