even at lower levels of light dusting to come as well. Winter | :00:00. | :00:07. | |
Designed to stop suspects spitting at police | :00:08. | :00:11. | |
Now Thames Valley Police has issued them to all its front line officers. | :00:12. | :00:16. | |
Also, investigating the death of a motorist on a rail crossing. | :00:17. | :00:19. | |
The has been closed for more than 24 hours. | :00:20. | :00:23. | |
And later on - one man and his shed, but its more than just | :00:24. | :00:26. | |
a shed its a movement to tackle loneliness. | :00:27. | :00:33. | |
Inside, you'll find everything you could ever need. Tools for the | :00:34. | :00:39. | |
garden, track over the barbecue and of course, string. Every needs | :00:40. | :00:52. | |
Critics have described them as cruel and degrading, | :00:53. | :00:56. | |
but now so called spit hoods are being handed out to every | :00:57. | :00:59. | |
Thames Valley Police front-line police officer. | :01:00. | :01:00. | |
The device can placed on offenders to prevent | :01:01. | :01:02. | |
them spitting at police and the public or biting them. | :01:03. | :01:05. | |
They've been rejected by some other forces, | :01:06. | :01:06. | |
Here's our home affairs correspondent, Emma Vardy. | :01:07. | :01:17. | |
A third of police forces across the UK have used spit guards. | :01:18. | :01:20. | |
Now for the first time, officers from | :01:21. | :01:22. | |
Hampshire and Thames Valley will all carry them on duty. | :01:23. | :01:24. | |
We've seen instances where officers have had | :01:25. | :01:26. | |
This creates, not only is it a disgusting and vile | :01:27. | :01:29. | |
thing to do, but actually a risk of infection. | :01:30. | :01:31. | |
So, we have looked at the evidence that is available, we had | :01:32. | :01:34. | |
national advice that says that we should look to issue a spit | :01:35. | :01:37. | |
Over the past ten months, officers from the two forces | :01:38. | :01:41. | |
have reported being spat at more than 400 times. | :01:42. | :01:48. | |
Is there a danger putting a hood over someone's head will | :01:49. | :01:51. | |
What we have seen is that officers will understand the situation, will | :01:52. | :01:55. | |
closely monitor the situation, and at the point in which they stop | :01:56. | :01:58. | |
spitting, the spit guard will be removed. | :01:59. | :01:59. | |
I often speak to officers who have had to go through | :02:00. | :02:03. | |
medical processes to make sure that they don't | :02:04. | :02:05. | |
There is disagreement over whether they should be allowed. | :02:06. | :02:10. | |
The Met police had been consulting on | :02:11. | :02:12. | |
whether to introduce spit guards, but a pilot last year was cancelled | :02:13. | :02:14. | |
after London Mayor Sadiq Khan voiced concerns and Kent Police | :02:15. | :02:17. | |
decided against the use after considering the impact on a person | :02:18. | :02:19. | |
Health don't use spit guards, prison service don't use spit guards. | :02:20. | :02:43. | |
Europe and Northern Ireland don't use spit guards. | :02:44. | :02:45. | |
As soon as you start restraining people around the | :02:46. | :02:47. | |
head, accidents happen and people could get seriously injured and | :02:48. | :02:50. | |
Police says suspects will be told why a spit | :02:51. | :02:53. | |
guard is being used and there when their behaviour changes, | :02:54. | :02:55. | |
The railway line where a motorist was killed on a level crossing | :02:56. | :03:00. | |
yesterday is still being examined by investigators. | :03:01. | :03:02. | |
His An intercity train hit a Land Rover near | :03:03. | :03:04. | |
The line between Swindon and Gloucester has been closed | :03:05. | :03:08. | |
When the train and remains of the land Rover moved away, the | :03:09. | :03:23. | |
meticulous search for evidence began. Specialist teams for the | :03:24. | :03:26. | |
British Transport Police looking for anything that could it explain where | :03:27. | :03:31. | |
the victim and his car were hit by a train. When we arrived on the scene | :03:32. | :03:36. | |
at 3pm yesterday the afternoon, we were dealing with the initial | :03:37. | :03:40. | |
incident itself. The light got the better of us. We wanted to make sure | :03:41. | :03:44. | |
that we could recover all evidence today when we had natural daylight | :03:45. | :03:49. | |
available to us. Investigators from Network Rail and the Vale | :03:50. | :03:53. | |
investigations Branch started their own enquiries. Great Western Railway | :03:54. | :03:58. | |
are also offering support and help to be train driver. Thoughts are | :03:59. | :04:03. | |
with the victims here. The 60-year-old former EU has yet to be | :04:04. | :04:07. | |
formally identified. He used to keep animals, cows and sheep in the | :04:08. | :04:10. | |
field, just on the other side of the railway. My dad also has animals. | :04:11. | :04:16. | |
They used to help each other out. He would take around was to market and | :04:17. | :04:21. | |
stuff. He was always there to help. That would always call on him if he | :04:22. | :04:26. | |
wanted any help with things. He was willing to. And my dad would help | :04:27. | :04:29. | |
him as well. That sort of relationship, really. The key | :04:30. | :04:34. | |
question is why the victim was still on the track when the train | :04:35. | :04:37. | |
approached. This was the crossing that he has used regularly. He has | :04:38. | :04:43. | |
used it for years. We have crossed it as well. We noted as like, you | :04:44. | :04:49. | |
have to wait. He has severed all his life. I have been there when he has | :04:50. | :04:52. | |
crossed. We have chatted to him before he is crossed. It was a | :04:53. | :05:00. | |
normal, everyday thing, really. Into those in 14, a motorcyclist was | :05:01. | :05:04. | |
killed in the crossing and have been two suicides here since. At the | :05:05. | :05:08. | |
tragedy of yesterday, there are calls for the crushing to be closed | :05:09. | :05:15. | |
to all but pedestrians. Think it is rather dangerous. You can only see | :05:16. | :05:19. | |
the trains for 100 metres. By the time the whistle has gone, they are | :05:20. | :05:25. | |
upon you. With the line closed today, replacement buses were laid | :05:26. | :05:29. | |
on for passengers between Gloucester and Swindon. Disruption for many, | :05:30. | :05:33. | |
but necessary for officers to find out why someone afterlife year. | :05:34. | :05:35. | |
Acres of land near Thame have been damaged by illegal | :05:36. | :05:39. | |
hare and deer coursers - according to the National | :05:40. | :05:41. | |
It's believed as many as 50 people were involved in one incident | :05:42. | :05:45. | |
Police are investigating and say its work of criminal gangs. | :05:46. | :05:48. | |
Up to ten landowners have been affected in a five mile radius | :05:49. | :05:51. | |
and a vehicle has been left abandoned in one field | :05:52. | :05:53. | |
It may involve illegal gambling and quite | :05:54. | :05:56. | |
large bets being placed on the | :05:57. | :05:58. | |
performance of the dogs and their ability to catch their quarry. | :05:59. | :06:00. | |
The poor hare or the deer dies a horrible death. | :06:01. | :06:03. | |
They're criminals, they're trespassers, they're damaging crops. | :06:04. | :06:05. | |
They're damaging farmers' livelihoods. | :06:06. | :06:19. | |
The Princess Royal has been in South Oxfordshire, | :06:20. | :06:21. | |
officially unveiling new technology to assist biomedical research. | :06:22. | :06:23. | |
Princess Anne spent the day at the diamond light source | :06:24. | :06:25. | |
facility in harwell, meeting scientists and marking ten | :06:26. | :06:27. | |
years since the site was officially opened. | :06:28. | :06:29. | |
Diamond has supported 10,000 scientists in that time, | :06:30. | :06:31. | |
with research ranging from antibiotics to | :06:32. | :06:32. | |
It's ten years since the Queen opened the Diamond Light Source | :06:33. | :06:42. | |
and today her daughter, Princess Anne, has been back | :06:43. | :06:44. | |
A decade of discoveries using light beams. | :06:45. | :06:47. | |
These big machines like the one behind me have billions of electrons | :06:48. | :06:50. | |
whizzing through and as they go through these giant magnets that you | :06:51. | :06:53. | |
can see, the red and yellow and green, bending magnet here, | :06:54. | :06:55. | |
the selector is controlled, pushed in different directions. | :06:56. | :06:57. | |
And as that happens, light is omitted. | :06:58. | :06:59. | |
The control of that light has enabled | :07:00. | :07:01. | |
the scientists here at the Diamond Light Source | :07:02. | :07:03. | |
over the last ten years to do some pretty amazing things. | :07:04. | :07:05. | |
Some of them, on this machine - I-11. | :07:06. | :07:17. | |
Here we are doing experiments that last a very long time. | :07:18. | :07:20. | |
I mean, a classic example is your mobile | :07:21. | :07:22. | |
Because when you use it everyday, you don't want a 24-hour | :07:23. | :07:25. | |
You want a battery that lasts a very, very long time. | :07:26. | :07:30. | |
We are trying to make new materials and look at | :07:31. | :07:34. | |
new materials that last these periods of time. | :07:35. | :07:36. | |
Other beams map the structure of viruses. | :07:37. | :07:42. | |
If you know the structure of the molecule you are | :07:43. | :07:46. | |
trying to target, you can design new drugs to fit | :07:47. | :07:48. | |
Having the structure is very useful for drug discovery. | :07:49. | :07:51. | |
We have plans, we have the technology that could | :07:52. | :07:55. | |
Ten times brighter means you find new drugs ten times faster. | :07:56. | :07:59. | |
You can look at the structure, the materials | :08:00. | :08:01. | |
for tomorrow ten times more effectively. | :08:02. | :08:02. | |
So, you know, those materials that go into your cell | :08:03. | :08:05. | |
phone, that go into jet air craft, going into cleaner technology, all | :08:06. | :08:07. | |
of those will be based on research that is done here at Diamond. | :08:08. | :08:11. | |
These plaques mark the synchrotron's 28th beam opening the way for new, | :08:12. | :08:14. | |
Organisers of an activity group, set up for lonely and | :08:15. | :08:44. | |
depressed people in Thame, have been told they need to get out | :08:45. | :08:47. | |
of the premises they've been in since it was set up more | :08:48. | :08:50. | |
The group received a letter from Soha Housing | :08:51. | :08:53. | |
telling them the tenants at Lee Court no longer wanted them | :08:54. | :08:56. | |
They've now found another room to rent, but at a higher cost | :08:57. | :09:00. | |
I have to uproot and move over to a new place, | :09:01. | :09:03. | |
which I understand might not be as well-suited as this is, in | :09:04. | :09:06. | |
the sense of the silly bits, like storage and making the tea | :09:07. | :09:09. | |
Because without a cup of tea, we can't put | :09:10. | :09:13. | |
More than 3,000 items of Alice in Wonderland memorabilia | :09:14. | :09:28. | |
The collection, amassed over 25 years, sold for ?70,000. | :09:29. | :09:32. | |
It includes books, statues, tea cups and photographs. | :09:33. | :09:33. | |
It's thought to be the largest collection dedicated | :09:34. | :09:35. | |
to Lewis Carroll's character in the world. | :09:36. | :09:37. | |
There is Alice herself, the Mad Hatter, the White Rabbit and many | :09:38. | :09:47. | |
other familiar characters from Lewis Carroll's | :09:48. | :09:49. | |
They have been popular for a century and a half and they are all | :09:50. | :09:53. | |
From Tweedledum and Tweedledee on a brass platter, to | :09:54. | :09:56. | |
Part of a huge and frankly rather bizarre collection. | :09:57. | :09:59. | |
There are any number of books, of course. | :10:00. | :10:01. | |
There are Mad Hatter teapots and hundreds of china ornaments. | :10:02. | :10:04. | |
There are advertising boards, that's the Walrus and the Carpenter. | :10:05. | :10:06. | |
There are Alice dolls, board games, tea trays and a | :10:07. | :10:08. | |
translation of Alice in Wonderland into Swahili. | :10:09. | :10:10. | |
One of the earliest of his signatures... | :10:11. | :10:12. | |
The collection was built up by Greta and her late | :10:13. | :10:14. | |
husband Thomas, an antiquarian book dealer. | :10:15. | :10:16. | |
The Mad Hatter, here's one of my favourites. | :10:17. | :10:19. | |
And he has stood behind our bar in the games room in the | :10:20. | :10:22. | |
At the auction, the collection fetched | :10:23. | :10:58. | |
Oxford was a fitting place for the sale, because this is | :10:59. | :11:01. | |
When Charles Dodgson University don took a colleague and his three | :11:02. | :11:05. | |
daughters up the river and told them a story. | :11:06. | :11:07. | |
They had a picnic on the bankrupt their and, yes, you could | :11:08. | :11:10. | |
argue that was the most important picnic in the history of | :11:11. | :11:13. | |
You know, without that occasion, it's unlikely that the | :11:14. | :11:16. | |
But why are we still so fascinated by it? | :11:17. | :11:19. | |
They broke the mould for children's stories. | :11:20. | :11:35. | |
It wasn't, sort of, a saccharine, moral story. | :11:36. | :11:37. | |
Indeed, there is a lot of darkness there. | :11:38. | :11:39. | |
It's the fact that it's not just the book standing | :11:40. | :11:43. | |
alone, the brilliant illustrations were then utilised in games, biscuit | :11:44. | :11:45. | |
Sir John Tenniel was the story's first illustrator. | :11:46. | :11:48. | |
Lewis Carroll was Charles Dodgson's pen name. | :11:49. | :11:50. | |
Now more of today's stories with Sally Taylor. | :11:51. | :12:03. | |
The drivers' union, ASLEF, has done a deal with the company | :12:04. | :12:06. | |
to operate more services without a second member | :12:07. | :12:08. | |
Drivers are currently voting whether to accept it. | :12:09. | :12:11. | |
The RMT called the deal a shocking betrayal, | :12:12. | :12:12. | |
but will now meet the company at the conciliation | :12:13. | :12:15. | |
Later, we're in Bermuda meeting the team behind Sir Ben Ainslie's | :12:16. | :12:18. | |
Teachers are using body-worn cameras in the classroom in a trial aimed | :12:19. | :12:28. | |
An expert from Portsmouth University will evaluate the experiment, | :12:29. | :12:31. | |
which is currently taking place at two secondary schools | :12:32. | :12:33. | |
The cameras are similar to those now worn by many police officers | :12:34. | :12:37. | |
It is several here since body-worn cameras were pioneered by police in | :12:38. | :12:51. | |
Hampshire and the Isle of Wight. These days don't use is widespread. | :12:52. | :12:55. | |
Analysis by Portsmouth University to find that the cameras led to the big | :12:56. | :13:01. | |
drop in crimes and assaults on officers. Now they are being tried | :13:02. | :13:05. | |
out by teachers in the trial involving two schools. They are | :13:06. | :13:11. | |
expected to maintain order in the classroom and are not getting the | :13:12. | :13:21. | |
chance to teach. It tends to detract and they tend to spend their time | :13:22. | :13:24. | |
controlling the class. They wanted something that wouldn't drop bad. | :13:25. | :13:28. | |
The cameras are being worn by all teachers at the school is involved. | :13:29. | :13:31. | |
They were switched on during an incident. Everybody is aware that | :13:32. | :13:38. | |
the camera is on. Unlike policing, the camera evidence or footage does | :13:39. | :13:45. | |
not have to be used for a disciplinary process. You might be | :13:46. | :13:53. | |
able to do other things with it. You can't show the parents that | :13:54. | :13:59. | |
behaviour. There were mixed views amongst the people of Portsmouth | :14:00. | :14:04. | |
today. It could be a good opportunity or idea to get the | :14:05. | :14:08. | |
student under control. It is worrying that teachers have to do | :14:09. | :14:12. | |
that and feel they can't talk to the parent about the problems. It takes | :14:13. | :14:17. | |
the trust of the teachers I think. I have a camera on my car. It is the | :14:18. | :14:22. | |
same principle. There is no arguing that something has happened. A | :14:23. | :14:26. | |
survey of teachers said that just over a third would be willing to | :14:27. | :14:29. | |
wear our body camera. The Department for Education says it is a matter | :14:30. | :14:34. | |
for schools to decide. Could you envisage a time when every teacher | :14:35. | :14:38. | |
wears a camera? Yes, every teacher and every pupil has a camera! That | :14:39. | :14:46. | |
is open and overt and everybody feels protected. I think that is | :14:47. | :14:50. | |
where we are heading, it will just become normalised. | :14:51. | :14:55. | |
Tom Ellis from the University of Portsmouth ending that report. | :14:56. | :14:57. | |
Well, Briony joins us from Portsmouth. | :14:58. | :14:59. | |
What are teaching unions saying about this? | :15:00. | :15:01. | |
The NASUWT says it's a proposal fraught with difficulty. | :15:02. | :15:04. | |
The association of teachers and lecturers says it doesn't | :15:05. | :15:06. | |
support the use of surveillance saying, "If schools have | :15:07. | :15:08. | |
good behaviour policies they should not have to resort | :15:09. | :15:11. | |
If schools do want to introduce cameras are they within | :15:12. | :15:14. | |
Yes, but there are rules - the Information Commissioner's | :15:15. | :15:20. | |
Office says they must consider if it's "...proportionate, | :15:21. | :15:22. | |
necessary and addresses a pressing need not addressed | :15:23. | :15:24. | |
We recommend that schools undertake a privacy impact assessment | :15:25. | :15:34. | |
to demonstrate that these criteria are met". | :15:35. | :15:38. | |
The three-month trial is still only in its early weeks, | :15:39. | :15:40. | |
so we'll have to wait some time for the evaluation | :15:41. | :15:43. | |
Plans to construct a ?1.4 billion road tunnel past Stonehenge | :15:44. | :16:02. | |
are being criticised by three conservation organisations. | :16:03. | :16:04. | |
A public consultation on the plans is running until 5th March, | :16:05. | :16:06. | |
with a single preferred route being decided this summer. | :16:07. | :16:09. | |
The National Trust, English Heritage and Historic England say | :16:10. | :16:11. | |
they are concerned that the tunnel's western portal is too | :16:12. | :16:13. | |
near to Neolithic and Bronze Age burial mounds. | :16:14. | :16:16. | |
The position of the western portal is so close to one of the really | :16:17. | :16:19. | |
important barrow cemeteries in the World Heritage Site, | :16:20. | :16:23. | |
that's a key part of its outstanding universal value. | :16:24. | :16:25. | |
In the current proposals, it sits very close to | :16:26. | :16:27. | |
The daughter of an Isle of Wight woman who was being prevented | :16:28. | :16:35. | |
from leaving Dubai for urgent cancer treatment has been told she can now | :16:36. | :16:38. | |
Luisa Williams has advanced kidney cancer, but had her passport | :16:39. | :16:44. | |
confiscated in a legal row over her charity work. | :16:45. | :16:49. | |
It's reported Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE | :16:50. | :16:51. | |
Sheikh Mohammed ordered a court to allow Luisa to leave the country. | :16:52. | :16:54. | |
She'll travel on to South Africa for treatment. | :16:55. | :17:05. | |
Now, all the sport. Shall we get some football first of all? | :17:06. | :17:11. | |
Southampton are in the process of finalising the paperwork | :17:12. | :17:13. | |
on the signing of Uruguayan defender Martin Caceres. | :17:14. | :17:15. | |
The 29-year-old, who's had serious injuries in the past, | :17:16. | :17:17. | |
is a free agent after being released by Juventus in the summer. | :17:18. | :17:23. | |
As he's currently without a club, Saints are allowed to sign him | :17:24. | :17:26. | |
Caceres will help fill the void left by the departed Jose Fonte | :17:27. | :17:30. | |
Bournemouth chairman Jeff Mostyn says he has full faith in the club's | :17:31. | :17:37. | |
players to halt their slide down the Premier League table. | :17:38. | :17:40. | |
The Cherries have slipped to within six points | :17:41. | :17:42. | |
of the bottom three, despite hitting an all-time high | :17:43. | :17:44. | |
But in an exclusive interview with BBC South, Mostyn is firm | :17:45. | :17:52. | |
in his belief that the Cherries have enough quality to be OK. | :17:53. | :17:56. | |
You have to bear in mind that this very same team were being lavished | :17:57. | :18:04. | |
with praise just prior to the Arsenal game, so what has changed? | :18:05. | :18:12. | |
What has changed is we have had a few bad performances, but the very | :18:13. | :18:14. | |
players that got busier I am convinced can take us on. -- that | :18:15. | :18:21. | |
Much more from that interview with Jeff Mostyn on tomorrow | :18:22. | :18:25. | |
night's South Today, and on the BBC Sport website. | :18:26. | :18:29. | |
With just over 100 days to go until racing begins | :18:30. | :18:31. | |
in the 2017 America's Cup, the waters off the island of Bermuda | :18:32. | :18:34. | |
are a hive of activity as the competing teams | :18:35. | :18:36. | |
This week, Portsmouth-based Land Rover BAR formally unveiled the boat | :18:37. | :18:40. | |
which will carry the hopes of the nation this summer. | :18:41. | :18:42. | |
Our sports editor, Tony Husband, has been in Bermuda behind | :18:43. | :18:44. | |
the scenes with a team adjusting to life 3,500 miles from home. | :18:45. | :18:50. | |
For Simon, this is a regular part of his job, ferrying passengers out to | :18:51. | :19:00. | |
Bermuda's great sound. Simon and his family have swapped Lymington in | :19:01. | :19:04. | |
Hampshire for Hamilton, the capital of Bermuda. I have been with them | :19:05. | :19:08. | |
two years now and seen it grow from a little tent inside Hampton to a | :19:09. | :19:15. | |
great big ears here in Bermuda with 100 odd people helping and working | :19:16. | :19:19. | |
towards this one goal we have all got. It is all good. Around half of | :19:20. | :19:24. | |
the America's Cup team have left their main base in Portsmouth and | :19:25. | :19:28. | |
annoy here at the Royal Naval dockyard, the temporary hub that was | :19:29. | :19:32. | |
officially opened on Monday. Back on sided with the launch of the boat in | :19:33. | :19:35. | |
which Britain will aim to win the America's Cup for the first time. I | :19:36. | :19:40. | |
hope this is the only false start of the campaign. Pivotal day for the | :19:41. | :19:52. | |
team. To launch our race boat, Rita, gap that in the water, is a | :19:53. | :19:59. | |
combination of 25,000 man-hours in terms of design, engineering and our | :20:00. | :20:04. | |
boat builders done a fantastic, incredible job to get this boat in | :20:05. | :20:10. | |
water. Temp one have been training on the water here since November. | :20:11. | :20:15. | |
The arrivals are all around them, so it certainly raises the stakes. | :20:16. | :20:20. | |
There is a lot of spying, basically. We are in a good place. We are | :20:21. | :20:24. | |
developing our bode well, but that doesn't mean that we knew at all. We | :20:25. | :20:29. | |
can learn a lot by the other techniques that other boats boats | :20:30. | :20:34. | |
sail with, and the components they have on their boats. Our one will | :20:35. | :20:41. | |
have a crew of six, led by Sir Ben Ainslie, but also Giles Coke, | :20:42. | :20:46. | |
current Olympic medallist. She is 15 metres long and has high-tech | :20:47. | :20:47. | |
hydrofoils that will see the broad hydrofoils that will see the broad | :20:48. | :20:53. | |
hour. It is the most amazing hour. It is the most amazing | :20:54. | :20:56. | |
feeling. Having another boat next to feeling. Having another boat next to | :20:57. | :20:57. | |
you is when you get some perspective, when you have two boots | :20:58. | :21:02. | |
next to you going close to 50 knots, it is an amazing feeling, when you | :21:03. | :21:07. | |
are throwing in the manoeuvres, trying to keep the boat out of the | :21:08. | :21:11. | |
better feeling, really. Bermuda has better feeling, | :21:12. | :21:17. | |
a decidedly British feel, but this a decidedly British feel, but this | :21:18. | :21:18. | |
Portsmouth -based team, the reminders of home are all around. | :21:19. | :21:24. | |
So, Sir Ben's boat is on the water, but when they here to the great | :21:25. | :21:29. | |
sound they will get an idea of the kind of catch up that the start-up | :21:30. | :21:32. | |
team Land Rover BAR face. Established likes of that boat are | :21:33. | :21:40. | |
strongly fancied to do well in this year's qualifiers, but there is so | :21:41. | :21:44. | |
much optimism at Brown Land Rover BAR and they really do feel that | :21:45. | :21:48. | |
this time Britain could bring the home. | :21:49. | :21:56. | |
Another piece tomorrow night about how Bermuda itself is gearing up to | :21:57. | :22:00. | |
host the race. The garden shed has long | :22:01. | :22:06. | |
provided a refuge for men. Now it's given its name to a scheme | :22:07. | :22:08. | |
to bring men together and help those of a certain age get over | :22:09. | :22:12. | |
the hurdle of retirement. The idea of so-called men's | :22:13. | :22:14. | |
sheds began in Australia, but here in the South, | :22:15. | :22:16. | |
they're going from The latest group is just setting up | :22:17. | :22:18. | |
near Overton in Hampshire. Our reporter Joe Campbell knows | :22:19. | :22:22. | |
a thing or two about sheds. It is the original man cave. Inside | :22:23. | :22:38. | |
of course you will find everything a chap could ever need, tools for the | :22:39. | :22:45. | |
garden, the family bikes, charcoal for the barbecue. It is a bloke | :22:46. | :22:50. | |
thing. And, of course, string. Every man needs strings. Opened the door | :22:51. | :22:55. | |
on some sheds and you may find something a little bit different. | :22:56. | :23:01. | |
But whatever the contents, the shed has long been an male refuge from | :23:02. | :23:07. | |
the world outside. I had been suffering with depression and it is | :23:08. | :23:11. | |
great for me to get out of the house rather than sitting at home | :23:12. | :23:15. | |
brooding. John is one of half a dozen attendees. Based at this | :23:16. | :23:23. | |
sports pavilion and brings together people like him who for one reason | :23:24. | :23:27. | |
or another or aperture nearing the end of their working lives. Men can | :23:28. | :23:31. | |
find it harder than women to shift off -- switch off. Philip Nash is | :23:32. | :23:42. | |
the group's honorary woman. She attends sometimes with her husband, | :23:43. | :23:47. | |
Nick, train Cabinet maker. It gets them out and they don't just sit in | :23:48. | :23:51. | |
a chair and read the paper and said there all day. I think a lot of it | :23:52. | :23:55. | |
is because they have been working all the life they don't have | :23:56. | :23:59. | |
anything else better to do. Organisers say few would come here | :24:00. | :24:03. | |
cases. Instead, people like Dave, cases. Instead, people like Dave, | :24:04. | :24:08. | |
who spent a working lifetime preparing vintage Spitfires, is | :24:09. | :24:12. | |
working with the others here to do up the building for themselves. You | :24:13. | :24:15. | |
work with people for years and suddenly you're at home. You have a | :24:16. | :24:20. | |
wife to talk to when she is around, and obviously grandchildren and | :24:21. | :24:24. | |
like at weekends, but the rest of like at weekends, but the rest of | :24:25. | :24:30. | |
the time you are stuck indoors doing what you can. You can decorate | :24:31. | :24:35. | |
forever. Getting this particular shed fixed up will keep them busy | :24:36. | :24:39. | |
for some time yet, but then, isn't that the whole point of it? | :24:40. | :24:46. | |
That has got you in the mood for a shared, hasn't it? We could all come | :24:47. | :24:57. | |
round! Onto the weather. That captures this | :24:58. | :25:01. | |
morning went from nine Celsius down five Celsius. | :25:02. | :25:05. | |
That is because the easterly wind is setting in. It will be cold | :25:06. | :25:07. | |
tomorrow. We did have some very interesting | :25:08. | :25:17. | |
clouds in Poole Harbour yesterday. They are extremely rare. They occur | :25:18. | :25:23. | |
when two different layers of the inner atmosphere are moving at | :25:24. | :25:30. | |
different speeds. They are named after two meteorologists who studied | :25:31. | :25:34. | |
turbulent airflow. As we head to the course of tonight we are expecting | :25:35. | :25:38. | |
quite a lot of cloud and patchy frost in places, particularly when | :25:39. | :25:43. | |
we do have clear skies. Some showers as well, but mainly dry during the | :25:44. | :25:48. | |
early hours. Temperatures falling away to a roundabout freezing. One | :25:49. | :25:52. | |
or two Celsius in our towns and cities. The showers will roll in | :25:53. | :25:57. | |
from the east on the increasing easterly breeze and a goodtime | :25:58. | :26:00. | |
winter wheat. Tomorrow evening when the time start, mainly falling as | :26:01. | :26:07. | |
rain tomorrow with temperatures of three to six Celsius. A popular cold | :26:08. | :26:10. | |
day with the brisk easterly wind. Through the course of tomorrow night | :26:11. | :26:14. | |
is when we will be more likely to see sleet or snow showers. There | :26:15. | :26:18. | |
will not amount to much. Temperatures will drop away to | :26:19. | :26:25. | |
freezing or just below in the countryside tomorrow night. It could | :26:26. | :26:29. | |
be a frost bursting on Friday morning. On Friday we could see some | :26:30. | :26:33. | |
bright or sunny spells and still that with the cold easterly winds | :26:34. | :26:37. | |
coming of Eastern Europe. Through the course of Friday there will be | :26:38. | :26:43. | |
some snow showers. More likely on Friday night when it turns colder. | :26:44. | :26:47. | |
Here is the outlook for the rest of the week. A lot of cloud around, | :26:48. | :26:51. | |
some brighter spells around for Friday and Saturday, but that is | :26:52. | :26:54. | |
when the really cold wind starts to begin. Three degrees on the | :26:55. | :27:01. | |
thermometer, but feeling a lot more like freezing. A lot of cloud around | :27:02. | :27:06. | |
for the next few days have been hold onto the cold easterly airflow. On | :27:07. | :27:11. | |
Sunday the error will be less cold, switching to a southerly airflow. | :27:12. | :27:15. | |
Still temperatures really struggle across-the-board over the next few | :27:16. | :27:18. | |
days and into the weekend. If you would like to become a weather | :27:19. | :27:22. | |
watcher, give yourself a nickname, sign up online and upload your | :27:23. | :27:26. | |
photos and tell us what the weather is like where you are. | :27:27. | :27:31. | |
That is it from us this evening. Tomorrow it is Ben Ainslie, Bermuda, | :27:32. | :27:36. | |
Bournemouth, and will be hearing from Jeff Boston tomorrow. Back-up | :27:37. | :27:41. | |
10:30pm tonight, no we are News for you. Good night. | :27:42. | :28:17. | |
