Tonight we have a special programme from Shoreham as family and friends | :00:11. | :00:19. | |
react to the air crash which killed 11 people. Who could have thought | :00:20. | :00:25. | |
that the airshow would have it resulted in a crash on the A27. It | :00:26. | :00:36. | |
should never have happened because he/she did never have been -- | :00:37. | :00:44. | |
because he should never have been flying over it. They are still | :00:45. | :00:49. | |
remembered bifocal clubs. Footloose but fraudulent - | :00:50. | :00:58. | |
the woman who enjoyed luxury cruises while claiming disability benefits | :00:59. | :01:07. | |
- is jailed. Eastbourne residents take | :01:08. | :01:09. | |
to the polls to vote on whether to sell off thousands | :01:10. | :01:11. | |
of acres of the South Downs. And a welcome return - | :01:12. | :01:14. | |
a John Singer Sergeant portrait painted 100 years ago | :01:15. | :01:17. | |
in Kent returns home. good evening. I'm standing on the | :01:18. | :01:26. | |
wooden toll bridge which sits between the A27 and the landing | :01:27. | :01:30. | |
lights, the runway lights of Shoreham airport, couple of hundred | :01:31. | :01:33. | |
yards away from the crash scene where on the 22nd of August, 2015, | :01:34. | :01:39. | |
11 men were killed, and here we have a simple memorial stone listing the | :01:40. | :01:45. | |
names of all 11 men. Waiting patiently for the 18 months since | :01:46. | :01:48. | |
the crash happened, the friends and family of those men have been | :01:49. | :01:51. | |
waiting to find out just what went wrong that they. And now we know, | :01:52. | :01:57. | |
the report has been published, which found the aircraft was going to blow | :01:58. | :02:01. | |
and too slow to pull out a bit stunt in time and there is criticism for | :02:02. | :02:07. | |
the organisers of the airshow -- was going too low. They did not know | :02:08. | :02:17. | |
what the pilot was planning to do. We now look into the findings of the | :02:18. | :02:25. | |
accident branch. Today, at last for their surviving friends and family, | :02:26. | :02:30. | |
clear answers as to what went wrong. Catastrophic pilot error coupled | :02:31. | :02:34. | |
with inadequate safety preparation, combining to create one Britain's | :02:35. | :02:38. | |
worst airshow disasters. This has been a devastating accident. We met | :02:39. | :02:43. | |
with the families last night to explain how our report to them and | :02:44. | :02:46. | |
we very much hope that although of course we can't take away what | :02:47. | :02:51. | |
happened in 2015, that we can improve safety at flying displays | :02:52. | :02:55. | |
for the future. The report concluded that the pilot Andy Hill was | :02:56. | :02:59. | |
permitted to conduct aerobatics at a minimum height of 500 feet and be | :03:00. | :03:04. | |
normal technique for a bed loop manoeuvre was to enter at a speed of | :03:05. | :03:08. | |
at least 350 knots aiming to achieve a height of three and a half | :03:09. | :03:12. | |
thousand feet. Instead he entered at a height of just 185 feet, reaching | :03:13. | :03:20. | |
just 2700 feet. It meant he was not able to complete the manoeuvre and | :03:21. | :03:22. | |
he left his flight path following the line of the A27 when his plane | :03:23. | :03:32. | |
crashed, crave -- claiming 11 lives. The key thing we are not satisfied | :03:33. | :03:36. | |
with is the regulations surrounding air shows, they are not stringent | :03:37. | :03:40. | |
enough and they are not enforced. The report found the manoeuvre | :03:41. | :03:44. | |
happened above an area occupied by the public over which the display | :03:45. | :03:49. | |
organisers had no control. And there were no safety measures in place to | :03:50. | :03:53. | |
mitigate the impact of a crash. And you can see that there was a chain | :03:54. | :04:02. | |
of causes that rated this tragedy. Poor regulation and preparation and | :04:03. | :04:06. | |
poor piloting and those three is somehow all contributed to the loss | :04:07. | :04:12. | |
of 11 innocent lives. The report now has 32 separate safety | :04:13. | :04:15. | |
recommendations including that pilots must tell organisers exactly | :04:16. | :04:18. | |
what manoeuvres will be carried out and wear. The displaying aircraft | :04:19. | :04:24. | |
should be separated from the public by a sufficient distance to minimise | :04:25. | :04:28. | |
risk of injury, and pilots should be trained in escape manoeuvres. In | :04:29. | :04:33. | |
respect of the fatal stunt, Andy Hill wasn't. This Red Cross | :04:34. | :04:38. | |
volunteer was given an award for her work in treating the injured at the | :04:39. | :04:42. | |
scene. We have to make sure that no one else dies in the same way that | :04:43. | :04:47. | |
they have died. The only way we can do that is to look at the mistakes | :04:48. | :04:51. | |
and try to see what on earth can we do differently in the future. This | :04:52. | :04:59. | |
is the report in its entirety. 219 pages, 18 months in the making. | :05:00. | :05:04. | |
Answering at last what went so catastrophically wrong at the | :05:05. | :05:11. | |
Shoreham airshow on August the 2015. Families of the victims will now be | :05:12. | :05:15. | |
absorbing the findings as the burden of investigation is now handed over | :05:16. | :05:16. | |
to Sussex Police. I'm joined now by Tim Loughton, | :05:17. | :05:25. | |
MP for East Worthing and Shoreham. Given everything that has been | :05:26. | :05:32. | |
highlighted by the AAIB report - can Shoreham ever host | :05:33. | :05:35. | |
an airshow again? Well, a lot of things need to be | :05:36. | :05:42. | |
addressed before that happens, and it would be a great tragedy if the | :05:43. | :05:46. | |
airshow that has been so much part of the local community for 26 years | :05:47. | :05:51. | |
were not to return. A lot of changes would have to be made, but this | :05:52. | :05:56. | |
report has serious implications for the 300 airshow is up and down the | :05:57. | :05:59. | |
country, which is why it is so important. There has been serious | :06:00. | :06:05. | |
criticism of the way the show was organised in the past, especially | :06:06. | :06:09. | |
over the fact the organisers did not have control of the airspace where | :06:10. | :06:12. | |
the aircraft was flying and they had not carried out risk assessments. | :06:13. | :06:15. | |
They did not actually know what the pilot was planning on doing and | :06:16. | :06:20. | |
where he was going to do it. Yes, that has clearly come out of the | :06:21. | :06:24. | |
report as to who actually owned the risk and what risk assessments there | :06:25. | :06:27. | |
were and what were followed and what the pilot told the flight | :06:28. | :06:32. | |
organisers. That is disappointing, the person in control of this | :06:33. | :06:37. | |
airshow for some years, very senior pilot from the Civil Aviation | :06:38. | :06:39. | |
Authority himself, and I no safety is absolutely critical, but clearly | :06:40. | :06:43. | |
things were not done that should have been done, and the changes will | :06:44. | :06:50. | |
have to happen in the future for Shoreham or any other airshow in the | :06:51. | :06:53. | |
future, so many questions have been addressed in this report but we need | :06:54. | :06:55. | |
answers from those people responsible. You have spoken to the | :06:56. | :07:01. | |
families over the last 18 months, what would they like to see happen? | :07:02. | :07:06. | |
The next age, the police need to decide if there is a criminal | :07:07. | :07:10. | |
prosecution to be had -- the next stage. And whether it could stand up | :07:11. | :07:14. | |
in court. They have waited 18 months and that is justified because of the | :07:15. | :07:18. | |
detail and hard work that has gone into the report, and quickly now we | :07:19. | :07:21. | |
need a response from the police as to whether there will be a | :07:22. | :07:24. | |
prosecution and if not, that needs to be very transparently and very | :07:25. | :07:27. | |
fully explained to everyone and after that the coroner can go on | :07:28. | :07:31. | |
with her important work. Eventually the families can get some sort of | :07:32. | :07:37. | |
closure from this whole tragedy. Tim Loughton, thanks for joining us. We | :07:38. | :07:42. | |
must not forget that at the heart of the investigation is the fact that | :07:43. | :07:44. | |
11 men died that day. Matthew Grimstone was 23 - | :07:45. | :07:50. | |
a footballer, he was travelling to a match with his friend | :07:51. | :07:53. | |
Jacob Schilt who was also 23 - they both played | :07:54. | :07:56. | |
for Worthing United. 24 year old Matt Jones aged 24 | :07:57. | :07:58. | |
was a personal trainer - he was sharing a car with 23 year | :07:59. | :08:03. | |
old builder Daniele Polito. 53 year old plane enthusiast | :08:04. | :08:07. | |
Mark Reeves had ridden his motorcycle to the edge | :08:08. | :08:09. | |
of Shoreham Airport to take photos. 26 year old Richard Smith | :08:10. | :08:12. | |
was going for a bike ride on the South Downs, | :08:13. | :08:14. | |
along with his friend 76 year old Maurice Abrahams | :08:15. | :08:16. | |
was a chauffeur - he was on his way to pick up a bride | :08:17. | :08:22. | |
on her wedding day. Tony Brightwell, age 53, | :08:23. | :08:27. | |
was an aircraft enthusiast - he'd actually learned to fly | :08:28. | :08:29. | |
at Shoreham airfield. Mark Trussler was 54 | :08:30. | :08:33. | |
and thought to have been Retired engineer Graham Mallinson | :08:34. | :08:35. | |
was 72, and a keen photographer. Juliette Parkin now reports on how | :08:36. | :08:45. | |
the families of those killed - and members of the local community | :08:46. | :08:48. | |
affected by the tragedy, have been Remembering those | :08:49. | :08:51. | |
who lost their lives. The tragedy of August 2015 | :08:52. | :08:57. | |
will forever be part of this Shoreham community, | :08:58. | :08:59. | |
but today at least, some answers. Certainly, the families have waited | :09:00. | :09:03. | |
with great patience and I think the community has waited | :09:04. | :09:08. | |
with great patience too. I think everyone concerned | :09:09. | :09:10. | |
wanted to be sure the As the report's findings | :09:11. | :09:13. | |
were revealed today, people in the town gave | :09:14. | :09:17. | |
us their reaction. Obviously it has confirmed people's | :09:18. | :09:21. | |
worries about the airshow. Because I think they've | :09:22. | :09:23. | |
always been there. I've got a feeling there won't be | :09:24. | :09:27. | |
another airshow in Shoreham. I might be wrong, but I | :09:28. | :09:33. | |
can't see it happening. Because it would just bring | :09:34. | :09:35. | |
memories back again. It's still in everybody's minds | :09:36. | :09:37. | |
and hearts, and even the football They are still carrying the memory | :09:38. | :09:47. | |
of people affected by it. Two of their players, | :09:48. | :09:51. | |
Matthew Grimstone and Jacob Schilt, died in the crash on their way | :09:52. | :09:54. | |
to a match. We wear their names on our kit | :09:55. | :09:57. | |
so they will always be remembered First of all, they | :09:58. | :10:00. | |
were superb players. Shortly after the disaster, | :10:01. | :10:03. | |
Shoreham's toll bridge became a focal point for an outpouring | :10:04. | :10:10. | |
of emotion from the surrounding One local artist was | :10:11. | :10:13. | |
so moved by what he saw, What touched me the most | :10:14. | :10:17. | |
was the community coming together, I just wanted to paint a picture | :10:18. | :10:23. | |
I could give to everyone involved. Up here on the South Downs it's | :10:24. | :10:32. | |
a popular beauty spot for walkers but nobody, | :10:33. | :10:35. | |
it seems, can take in that view across to Shoreham airport | :10:36. | :10:38. | |
without thinking about what happened on that day in August 2015, | :10:39. | :10:41. | |
and remembering those There was such a feeling of love | :10:42. | :10:44. | |
and support for those who had lost But I think there's still | :10:45. | :10:55. | |
that massive support One whose history's been | :10:56. | :11:03. | |
changed by a tragic event And she joins me from | :11:04. | :11:07. | |
Shoreham town centre now. Juliette - do people in the town | :11:08. | :11:18. | |
want to see the airshow return? We've spent the day here talking to | :11:19. | :11:30. | |
people and getting their reaction to that report and people are very | :11:31. | :11:35. | |
divided as to whether they think an airshow should ever return to this | :11:36. | :11:39. | |
town. Some people said they remember those years when it brought | :11:40. | :11:43. | |
thousands of summer visitors here and other people said they were | :11:44. | :11:46. | |
there on that day and they witnessed those awful offence and they still | :11:47. | :11:50. | |
feel so traumatised that they never want to see an airshow here again -- | :11:51. | :11:58. | |
those awful events. The Shoreham airshow organisers said it had been | :11:59. | :12:02. | |
an important part of the local community for 26 years and they said | :12:03. | :12:05. | |
they had worked hard to make sure the event was safe as accessible and | :12:06. | :12:12. | |
they say the report will require further analysis and reflection -- | :12:13. | :12:16. | |
to make sure the event was safe and successful. On everyone's mind today | :12:17. | :12:23. | |
the people who died. I'm joined now by the | :12:24. | :12:31. | |
Reverend Terry Stratford. It has been a long time waiting for | :12:32. | :12:38. | |
this report. How has the town been affected? I always go back to the | :12:39. | :12:49. | |
immediate aftermath when there was a numbness in the town, almost | :12:50. | :12:53. | |
silence, the first few days. We've gradually worked through that. After | :12:54. | :12:59. | |
that we moved to the first anniversary which has been gone and | :13:00. | :13:05. | |
I think life has picked up. Life is normal. Our people angry and upset? | :13:06. | :13:16. | |
-- are. In light of the report, I think the response is sadness with a | :13:17. | :13:20. | |
mixture of anger. There is an element of anger. Do you think the | :13:21. | :13:28. | |
airshow could return? My personal opinion is that I don't think it | :13:29. | :13:32. | |
will return. I just can't see it happening. Now, I might be going | :13:33. | :13:37. | |
against the grain, because the airshow has always been very much | :13:38. | :13:41. | |
part of the life of Shoreham and people have looked forward to this | :13:42. | :13:46. | |
event and participated in it. Maybe it might be better not to have it | :13:47. | :13:52. | |
again. I don't know. We will wait and see. It is a sad situation. It | :13:53. | :14:02. | |
is, yes. Terry, thanks for giving us your reflection. We will be back | :14:03. | :14:09. | |
with more in a few moments, but now back to the studio. | :14:10. | :14:24. | |
She claimed she needed oxygen to breathe and a wheelchair to go | :14:25. | :14:32. | |
outside, but former civil servant Lisa White was enjoying luxury | :14:33. | :14:35. | |
When investigators began to look into Mrs White's claims | :14:36. | :14:48. | |
that she was severely disabled they found footage of her | :14:49. | :14:50. | |
dancing around the cafe she owned in Broadstairs. | :14:51. | :14:52. | |
Today she sobbed in court as she was jailed for 18 months - | :14:53. | :14:55. | |
her husband got a nine month suspended sentence. | :14:56. | :14:57. | |
This footage shows Lisa White singing and dancing. | :14:58. | :15:00. | |
# I don't want a lot for Christmas... | :15:01. | :15:02. | |
But qualifying for ?115 of benefits each week, | :15:03. | :15:04. | |
she'd told the council she couldn't walk without a stick. | :15:05. | :15:06. | |
And needed an oxygen tank to regulate her breathing. | :15:07. | :15:09. | |
She even told them she couldn't lift kitchen equipment, | :15:10. | :15:11. | |
but was running a cafe in Broadstairs and the | :15:12. | :15:15. | |
To me they were a nice couple. So, yeah, I am a bit surprised. | :15:16. | :15:22. | |
I'm amazed she didn't get caught a lot sooner, to be honest. | :15:23. | :15:30. | |
Although living and working in Thanet, she claimed she shared | :15:31. | :15:41. | |
a council house with her mother in south London. | :15:42. | :15:44. | |
Greenwich Council became suspicious because her husband, | :15:45. | :15:48. | |
who is also her carer, was registered at an | :15:49. | :15:50. | |
Surveillance carried out by fraud investigators proved conclusive. | :15:51. | :15:56. | |
Her husband Andrew White was found guilty of aiding and abetting, | :15:57. | :16:00. | |
but one former neighbour claims Mrs White had been very ill. | :16:01. | :16:05. | |
She certainly deserved to be supported, and the reason | :16:06. | :16:08. | |
they bought this in the first instance is that he thought | :16:09. | :16:11. | |
Mrs White was jailed for 18 months, her husband received | :16:12. | :16:15. | |
That report by Peter Whittlesea and he joins us live | :16:16. | :16:18. | |
The judge in this case was very critical. He said the real victims | :16:19. | :16:30. | |
of this crime are taxpayers who pay their taxes. Yet it goes to the | :16:31. | :16:36. | |
likes of you in benefits. He went on to say that throughout this they | :16:37. | :16:41. | |
lived a life of luxury on a cruise and he said no doubt you have said | :16:42. | :16:45. | |
you are immortal, but I'm not convinced, he said -- you are | :16:46. | :16:56. | |
remorseful or. He said that everything they did was cheating. | :16:57. | :17:05. | |
The head teachers of primary and secondary schools in East Sussex | :17:06. | :17:07. | |
are the latest to join together to unite for more school funding. | :17:08. | :17:10. | |
They've launched their own campaign and are looking at joining | :17:11. | :17:13. | |
Our Education Correspondant Bryony Mackenzie has more. | :17:14. | :17:17. | |
It's in response to government proposals to change the amount | :17:18. | :17:21. | |
of money each school gets and savings schools need to make. | :17:22. | :17:25. | |
All schools have to find 8% of budget cuts by 2019. | :17:26. | :17:30. | |
So, take Uplands Community College in Wadhurst, for example - | :17:31. | :17:32. | |
they'll have ?270,000 less in their budget | :17:33. | :17:35. | |
That's the equivalent of losing seven teachers. | :17:36. | :17:47. | |
Head teachers say cuts will have a big impact. | :17:48. | :17:49. | |
We are looking at cuts to the student experience, | :17:50. | :17:51. | |
whether that's curriculum, whether that's pastoral | :17:52. | :17:53. | |
support, whether that's extracurricular activities. | :17:54. | :17:54. | |
Right across the board, every single school will have | :17:55. | :17:56. | |
to look very hard at the provision that it holds dear, | :17:57. | :17:59. | |
that have been the cause of great pride for students. | :18:00. | :18:04. | |
It comes at a time when the government has made huge changes | :18:05. | :18:11. | |
to schools funding and, they say, proposed to make it | :18:12. | :18:13. | |
Under the new funding formula, East Sussex schools would receive | :18:14. | :18:17. | |
Overall, a rise of 2.5%, but still below | :18:18. | :18:26. | |
the average for England, and that's the same for Kent, | :18:27. | :18:29. | |
West Sussex, Brighton and Hove and Medway. | :18:30. | :18:30. | |
But here's the catch - for some schools to get more, | :18:31. | :18:35. | |
other will receive less - so even across Kent and Sussex | :18:36. | :18:37. | |
that can be a difference of ?3,000 per pupil. | :18:38. | :18:41. | |
Funding changes mean councils no longer control the purse strings | :18:42. | :18:44. | |
The county council put three quarters of a million | :18:45. | :18:50. | |
towards the transition funding because we actually appreciate, | :18:51. | :19:01. | |
especially this year, the funding formula for schools | :19:02. | :19:03. | |
so we are doing what we can and we will continue to work | :19:04. | :19:08. | |
with schools in their aim which is absolutely to get a fair | :19:09. | :19:10. | |
We're still in the consultation stage - that finishes on March 22nd. | :19:11. | :19:14. | |
The government says the funding formula focuses on pupil need | :19:15. | :19:17. | |
Whatever changes are finally agreed upon, they won't kick in until next | :19:18. | :19:21. | |
Eastbourne residents have been voting on a controversial scheme | :19:22. | :19:27. | |
The borough council wants to put 3,000 of the 4,000 acres of down | :19:28. | :19:37. | |
It says it needs to raise money from the land | :19:38. | :19:41. | |
Those who object have been holding protests to persuade | :19:42. | :19:45. | |
people in the town to vote against the plan. | :19:46. | :19:47. | |
They marched through the streets of Eastbourne on Saturday, | :19:48. | :19:57. | |
But the council says it comes down to a straight choice, | :19:58. | :20:01. | |
It's this farmland which is up for debate. | :20:02. | :20:10. | |
Four farms on the Downs, covering 3000 acres. | :20:11. | :20:14. | |
If it's sold, the council says nothing but the name | :20:15. | :20:16. | |
of the owner would change, it would remain as farmland. | :20:17. | :20:19. | |
Once you sell the Downs you don't know who's going to own them. | :20:20. | :20:23. | |
It could be a Russian billionaire, for example. | :20:24. | :20:25. | |
They could do absolutely anything with it. | :20:26. | :20:31. | |
They could change it into a pig farm, they could change | :20:32. | :20:33. | |
Much more intensive agricultural use. | :20:34. | :20:39. | |
The council will retain this strip of land next to the sea, | :20:40. | :20:42. | |
But as anyone who lives around here will tell you, | :20:43. | :20:45. | |
coastal erosion means this area is getting smaller and smaller. | :20:46. | :20:48. | |
For the past two weeks the people of Eastbourne have been asked | :20:49. | :20:51. | |
to fill out this voting form and deliver it to the town hall. | :20:52. | :20:57. | |
Option two, yes to cuts, including to the Community Grants Programme | :20:58. | :21:01. | |
It is nice that we're given a choice, but it depends | :21:02. | :21:06. | |
I think they should sell off so they've got a bit more money, | :21:07. | :21:15. | |
If out of that land, they can get in the valley | :21:16. | :21:22. | |
part affordable housing, that would be great. | :21:23. | :21:25. | |
I mean, the council said they will not build on it, | :21:26. | :21:28. | |
The council says multi-million pound cuts in government funding mean | :21:29. | :21:35. | |
Losing ownership of this land is not a price worth paying, | :21:36. | :21:42. | |
The result will be announced on Monday and the council promises | :21:43. | :21:46. | |
it's committed to abiding by the people's vote. | :21:47. | :21:49. | |
A portrait painted more than 100 years ago at Ightham Mote | :21:50. | :22:03. | |
near Sevenoaks by a renowned Edwardian artist has | :22:04. | :22:05. | |
John Singer Sargent was an American artist born in 1856. | :22:06. | :22:09. | |
He was considered to be a leading portrait painter of his generation. | :22:10. | :22:12. | |
As Jon Hunt now reports, the portrait's being loaned | :22:13. | :22:14. | |
to the National Trust by an art gallery in America. | :22:15. | :22:16. | |
It's said that you had to sandpaper your soul to sit before | :22:17. | :22:23. | |
John Singer Sargent, such was his ability | :22:24. | :22:25. | |
to express his subject's essential character on canvas. | :22:26. | :22:29. | |
And the portrait of former Ightham resident Elsie Palmer | :22:30. | :22:31. | |
And it's strange that Sargent took nearly a year and a half | :22:32. | :22:42. | |
And yet when you see it here in the flesh, | :22:43. | :22:47. | |
it just leaps off the frame, she's so mesmerising. | :22:48. | :22:52. | |
Elsie Palmer was the daughter of American railway engineer | :22:53. | :22:56. | |
General William Jackson Palmer, who founded Colorado Springs. | :22:57. | :23:01. | |
Elsie moved to Ightham Mote with her mother and two sisters in 1887. | :23:02. | :23:04. | |
Sargent was a great friend of the family. | :23:05. | :23:08. | |
He was looking for commissions and Elsie was one of his first | :23:09. | :23:11. | |
commissions, so it was very important in the | :23:12. | :23:13. | |
And they actually have left this great bequest for everybody to enjoy | :23:14. | :23:20. | |
Elsie Palmer was just 16 when Singer Sargent started | :23:21. | :23:24. | |
Ightham Mote, for this teenage girl, becomes the most | :23:25. | :23:32. | |
And it culminates, of course, in being painted | :23:33. | :23:37. | |
by John Singer Sargent, leaving us one of the finest | :23:38. | :23:39. | |
One of the first to see the portrait of Elsie back in Ightham Mote | :23:40. | :23:45. | |
I have not seen her for a very long time. | :23:46. | :23:51. | |
The portrait is on loan to Ightham Mote until the end of the year. | :23:52. | :23:58. | |
A bit earlier than usual, it is time for the weather forecast. Rain is | :23:59. | :24:13. | |
never far away over the weekend, similar to today, we started on a | :24:14. | :24:16. | |
wet and windy know, much of the rain cleared, though, and although there | :24:17. | :24:21. | |
was not much in the way of sunshine, it was a dry picture and quite mild. | :24:22. | :24:27. | |
Temperatures in double figures. Looking towards the weekend, it will | :24:28. | :24:31. | |
be a wet start first thing on Saturday but it brightens up and it | :24:32. | :24:35. | |
will be feeling mild. The better day of the two, Sunday once again is wet | :24:36. | :24:40. | |
and windy. As we go through tonight, initially it is dry, tomorrow | :24:41. | :24:46. | |
morning, quite heavy and thundery showers, moving from the South West. | :24:47. | :24:50. | |
As a result overnight temperatures barely changing from the daytime. | :24:51. | :24:58. | |
Around 7-8. The rain clears and as we had through the day it should be | :24:59. | :25:02. | |
pretty pleasant. The wind will be easing off and in the afternoon it | :25:03. | :25:06. | |
will be mostly dry, the outside chance of an isolated shower. | :25:07. | :25:16. | |
Temperatures, 10-11, winds easing off, make the most of it, because | :25:17. | :25:21. | |
once again it won't be lasting. Saturday into Sunday, the cloud | :25:22. | :25:24. | |
cover is going to be sick, it will stay blustery, once again as a | :25:25. | :25:28. | |
result, overnight temperatures will stay quite mild -- is going to be | :25:29. | :25:30. | |
sick. If you are up early, maybe a dry | :25:31. | :25:37. | |
stark but it will be quickly turning wet. Heavy at times, the wind | :25:38. | :25:45. | |
picking up, 10-11, but feeling cooler than Saturday. It will be a | :25:46. | :25:50. | |
wet start to the day on Monday, the rain clears, and then choose day, a | :25:51. | :25:55. | |
wet start and dry by the afternoon -- and then Tuesday. Over the | :25:56. | :26:00. | |
weekend Saturday will be the better day. | :26:01. | :26:04. | |
Now, let's go back to our top story tonight. | :26:05. | :26:07. | |
The air accident investigators have published their final report | :26:08. | :26:09. | |
into the Shoreham airshow disaster when a vintage jet performing | :26:10. | :26:11. | |
a stunt crashed onto the A27 killing 11 people. | :26:12. | :26:13. | |
The investigators have found the pilot - who survived - | :26:14. | :26:16. | |
started his loop too low and too slowly. | :26:17. | :26:18. | |
Earlier we spoke to two people who have been representing | :26:19. | :26:20. | |
I think we very quickly need a response on the police as to whether | :26:21. | :26:26. | |
there will be a prosecution and if not it needs to be very transparent | :26:27. | :26:30. | |
and fully explained to everyone and then the coroner can get on with her | :26:31. | :26:34. | |
important work. Eventually the family can get some sort of closure | :26:35. | :26:40. | |
for this whole tragedy. I think the response would be sadness but a | :26:41. | :26:47. | |
mixture of anger. There is an element of anger. Do you think the | :26:48. | :26:53. | |
airshow could return? My personal opinion is, I don't think it will | :26:54. | :26:55. | |
return. Let's go back to Rob | :26:56. | :26:57. | |
who is in Shoreham now. Rob, a difficult day | :26:58. | :26:59. | |
for the families and the town? Yes, absolutely. I'm standing by the | :27:00. | :27:11. | |
temporary memorial at the end of the toll bridge. There is a poem which | :27:12. | :27:16. | |
says for the families of the victims life will never be the same, someone | :27:17. | :27:19. | |
must know what happened, someone must be to blame. Our reporter is | :27:20. | :27:26. | |
still in the town centre, what actually happens now? Although | :27:27. | :27:34. | |
long-awaited and very significant, that report is by no means the end | :27:35. | :27:39. | |
for those involved. Families are waiting for a pre-inquest hearing. | :27:40. | :27:43. | |
Sussex Police say they remain committed to finding answers for the | :27:44. | :27:46. | |
families and friends of those who died. Still a long way to go but you | :27:47. | :27:52. | |
get a real sense in Shoreham of a community that is gradually healing | :27:53. | :28:03. | |
but forgetting, no, absolutely not. Thanks. That is it for the programme | :28:04. | :28:11. | |
from Shoreham, and the one thing to remember in all of this is the 11 | :28:12. | :28:13. | |
men who died that day. Good night. I love it. | :28:14. | :28:19. | |
I so love it when this happens. 15 celebrity acts | :28:20. | :28:23. | |
are coming together to Sing And Dance | :28:24. | :28:27. | |
