In tonight's programme: so it's goodbye from me, | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
Searching a convicted killer's former home. | :00:07. | :00:08. | |
Forensics officers spend a second day digging at the house | :00:09. | :00:12. | |
where Christopher Halliwell used to live in Swindon. | :00:13. | :00:16. | |
Also, the-self employed midwives told they can't deliver babies | :00:17. | :00:18. | |
because they don't have suitable insurance. | :00:19. | :00:22. | |
Join me for high tea at Highclere Castle. | :00:23. | :00:25. | |
You might know it better as Downton Abbey, where a piece | :00:26. | :00:28. | |
Police have been searching a former home of convicted murderer | :00:29. | :00:47. | |
Christopher Haliwell for a second day. | :00:48. | :00:48. | |
Officers have been digging at the back of two terraced houses | :00:49. | :00:51. | |
They say they're acting on specific intelligence they've received. | :00:52. | :00:56. | |
Will Glennon has been there throughout the day. | :00:57. | :01:01. | |
Police searches have continued on Broad Street throughout the day. | :01:02. | :01:05. | |
As specialist officers combed garages and gardens, | :01:06. | :01:14. | |
the sound of concrete drilling echoed down the alley. | :01:15. | :01:16. | |
Neighbours say they found all the activity quite surreal. | :01:17. | :01:20. | |
As a community, we feel quite freaked out about | :01:21. | :01:25. | |
It a bit too close for comfort, isn't it? | :01:26. | :01:29. | |
Yeah, it is, really, but there's not much we can do | :01:30. | :01:31. | |
Christopher Halliwell was convicted last September of his second | :01:32. | :01:38. | |
A taxi driver in Swindon, he killed Sian O'Callaghan in 2011. | :01:39. | :01:50. | |
But Becky Godden disappeared in 2003 and Halliwell was found | :01:51. | :01:52. | |
Police have kept the family informed and for Becky's dad John, | :01:53. | :01:59. | |
I'm really upset, I'm really upset with it all. | :02:00. | :02:05. | |
I mean, I want Becky to be at peace. | :02:06. | :02:10. | |
You know what I mean, it all should have been done six years ago. | :02:11. | :02:19. | |
With eight years separating the two killings, many people believe that | :02:20. | :02:21. | |
Former Wiltshire police Detective Steve Fulcher was in charge | :02:22. | :02:27. | |
In September last year, he told the BBC there must be more. | :02:28. | :02:36. | |
I mean, I spent a lot of time with Christopher Halliwell. | :02:37. | :02:38. | |
He was contrite, fully contrite, crying on my shoulder when I dealt | :02:39. | :02:41. | |
with him and there is no question that from all the information that | :02:42. | :02:44. | |
I gathered when I was running this inquiry in 2011 that he has | :02:45. | :02:48. | |
Wiltshire police haven't officially linked any | :02:49. | :02:54. | |
other crimes to Halliwell, but they have appealed to him | :02:55. | :03:01. | |
There may yet be more victims lying undisturbed and the search | :03:02. | :03:06. | |
Firefighters have now left the scene of the explosion and fire at a block | :03:07. | :03:15. | |
They've been gathering evidence and are working with the police | :03:16. | :03:19. | |
Some residents have been able to return home, but 13 households | :03:20. | :03:25. | |
are still in alternative accommodation and some will need | :03:26. | :03:27. | |
The families of two Buckinghamshire men killed in a head-on car crash | :03:28. | :03:34. | |
in 2014 have listened as a misconduct hearing | :03:35. | :03:37. | |
took evidence against three Thames Valley police officers. | :03:38. | :03:39. | |
It's alleged that they failed in their duty to protect the public | :03:40. | :03:42. | |
after leaving the scene of an earlier road accident | :03:43. | :03:45. | |
without taking sufficient measures to warn other road users | :03:46. | :03:48. | |
At the heart of this misconduct hearing is an accident on a rural | :03:49. | :03:55. | |
stretch of road that cost two men's lives. | :03:56. | :03:59. | |
It is not possible to say whether that accident would have | :04:00. | :04:01. | |
been avoided had three Thames Valley police officers acted differently. | :04:02. | :04:04. | |
The question for the panel and legal experts meeting here in Newbury | :04:05. | :04:09. | |
Did they fail in their duty to protect members of the public? | :04:10. | :04:16. | |
It was in March 2014 at five in the morning when PCs David Stamp, | :04:17. | :04:20. | |
Hugh Flanagan and Caroline Irwin, all on duty at Amersham police | :04:21. | :04:26. | |
station, were called to attend a road accident on the A413 | :04:27. | :04:30. | |
between Wendover and Great Missenden. | :04:31. | :04:33. | |
A car had skidded in the road and run into a ditch. | :04:34. | :04:36. | |
The officers left the scene after 20 minutes but half an hour later, | :04:37. | :04:40. | |
two more cars collided head-on on the same stretch. | :04:41. | :04:44. | |
Both drivers, 64-year-old Malcolm Tindall from Tilbury | :04:45. | :04:53. | |
Both drivers, 64-year-old Malcolm Tindall from Aylesbury | :04:54. | :04:54. | |
and Carl Bird, who was 29 and from High Wycombe, were killed. | :04:55. | :04:57. | |
There is disagreement over whether there was ice on the road. | :04:58. | :05:00. | |
Both men's families were here today for the start of the hearing. | :05:01. | :05:03. | |
They have each called for an independent investigation | :05:04. | :05:05. | |
as to why police left the scene of the earlier accident | :05:06. | :05:07. | |
without taking sufficient measures to warn other drivers | :05:08. | :05:09. | |
The Independent Police Complaints Commission | :05:10. | :05:12. | |
This misconduct hearing is expected to last until the end of next week. | :05:13. | :05:24. | |
Ambitious plans to change health services across Oxfordshire, | :05:25. | :05:26. | |
Buckinghamshire and West Berkshire have been rejected by Oxfordshire | :05:27. | :05:28. | |
The local NHS is hoping to save ?480 million and has put | :05:29. | :05:33. | |
a plan to redesign acute services out to public consultation. | :05:34. | :05:37. | |
But councillors say there's been too little information. | :05:38. | :05:40. | |
Sinead Carroll told me what happened at today's council meeting. | :05:41. | :05:44. | |
Well, today, Geraldine, councillors were talking | :05:45. | :05:46. | |
about something called Sustainability and | :05:47. | :05:47. | |
Now, these are things that Clinical Commissioning Groups | :05:48. | :05:51. | |
across the UK have been drawing up, not just here in our region. | :05:52. | :05:55. | |
The aim is to improve efficiency and save money. | :05:56. | :05:58. | |
So the one they were talking about in Oxfordshire today | :05:59. | :06:01. | |
refers to Oxfordshire, West Berkshire and Buckinghamshire, | :06:02. | :06:03. | |
where by 2021, there is expected to be a ?480 million funding gap. | :06:04. | :06:06. | |
Unsurprisingly, it has proved pretty controversial. | :06:07. | :06:10. | |
You'll probably remember some scenes like these here in Banbury, | :06:11. | :06:17. | |
where there have been regular protests against possible | :06:18. | :06:20. | |
downgrading of the Horton Hospital, proposed changes to emergency, | :06:21. | :06:23. | |
maternity and paediatric services there. | :06:24. | :06:27. | |
Essentially, today, the Cabinet at the County Council said they just | :06:28. | :06:30. | |
Some people said it wasn't transparent. | :06:31. | :06:36. | |
I think the biggest reason is because they have cut | :06:37. | :06:39. | |
the consultation in two, there is phase one and phase two. | :06:40. | :06:44. | |
I don't believe, and nor did the rest of the Cabinet, | :06:45. | :06:47. | |
that you can have two separate consultations because what's decided | :06:48. | :06:52. | |
So what happens now, where do we go from here? | :06:53. | :06:57. | |
Well, Hilary Hibbert-Biles, who you just heard from there, | :06:58. | :07:00. | |
says the CCG don't have to actually listen to anything the Cabinet | :07:01. | :07:03. | |
or indeed the full council say, but that they would be advised to. | :07:04. | :07:07. | |
The Government says that cuts have to be made and so far, | :07:08. | :07:09. | |
no other proposals are on the table, so there's an ongoing consultation | :07:10. | :07:12. | |
at the moment and that's about acute services. | :07:13. | :07:15. | |
In May, they'll be a separate consultation that will open | :07:16. | :07:18. | |
and they are about options to change emergency care, Children's Services | :07:19. | :07:23. | |
The sale of land for a new secondary school in Oxford has been approved. | :07:24. | :07:29. | |
The site of Meadowbrook College will be sold by the county | :07:30. | :07:32. | |
council to the Department for Education for ?1. | :07:33. | :07:35. | |
It will enable a new secondary school to be built on the site - | :07:36. | :07:39. | |
with the existing college rehoused elsewhere. | :07:40. | :07:41. | |
If it goes ahead, the Swan School will open in 2019. | :07:42. | :07:45. | |
Independent midwives in Oxfordshire are claiming new rules that stop | :07:46. | :07:48. | |
them practising are unfair and are removing | :07:49. | :07:51. | |
The Nursing and Midwifery council has ruled that self-employed | :07:52. | :07:55. | |
midwives don't have sufficient insurance cover, and therefore | :07:56. | :07:58. | |
Katharine Da Costa has been to meet some of those affected. | :07:59. | :08:05. | |
After a traumatic birth with her first child, | :08:06. | :08:08. | |
Camila Preece from Crowmarsh Gifford employed Liz, | :08:09. | :08:10. | |
an independent midwife, to support her throughout | :08:11. | :08:12. | |
her pregnancy and home birth with daughter Kitty. | :08:13. | :08:19. | |
When I was having my son, I actually went through three different shifts | :08:20. | :08:28. | |
of midwives through labour. When I had the independent midwives, they | :08:29. | :08:30. | |
were with me throughout labour, came to the hospital when I had to | :08:31. | :08:34. | |
transfer and it is that level of care that the NHS isn't able to | :08:35. | :08:37. | |
provide and that makes all the difference. | :08:38. | :08:38. | |
Since 2014, all health professionals must have indemnity insurance | :08:39. | :08:40. | |
in case of compensation claims if something goes wrong. | :08:41. | :08:42. | |
In January, the Nursing and Midwifery Council ruled that | :08:43. | :08:44. | |
around 80 independent midwives like Liz didn't have | :08:45. | :08:47. | |
sufficient levels of cover and would no longer be able | :08:48. | :08:50. | |
Liz says it's destroyed her career and has de-registered | :08:51. | :08:57. | |
as a midwife so she can continue to support her remaining | :08:58. | :09:00. | |
For me, my moral wish to continue to attend my clients' berths trump | :09:01. | :09:17. | |
staying on the register. Campaigners plan to fight | :09:18. | :09:19. | |
the ruling and say women's rights | :09:20. | :09:21. | |
are being ignored. In a statement, the NMC said it | :09:22. | :09:22. | |
"absolutely supports a woman's right Gemma Kingsbury from Oxford's | :09:23. | :09:25. | |
preparing for a home birth She'd employed Liz to care | :09:26. | :09:38. | |
for her but is now planning For me, the risks of being forced to | :09:39. | :09:56. | |
go into hospital and being in the hospital setting, with the lights | :09:57. | :09:59. | |
and different people and having medicalised practices imposed on me | :10:00. | :10:06. | |
is more of a risk than staying at home without anyone. | :10:07. | :10:07. | |
Like many women, Gemma feels there's too much red tape around what should | :10:08. | :10:10. | |
The NMC says its priority is the safety of women | :10:11. | :10:14. | |
Residents in Oxford are asking the city council not to allow | :10:15. | :10:24. | |
Network Rail to back out of a promise to install | :10:25. | :10:27. | |
noise muffling devices on the new line to Bicester. | :10:28. | :10:29. | |
The last section of track on the line to London Marylebone | :10:30. | :10:32. | |
opened in December and permission was granted on condition noise | :10:33. | :10:34. | |
Now Network Rail is asking for that condition to be dropped. | :10:35. | :10:39. | |
Jeremy Thorowgood says he's always been proud of the picturesque | :10:40. | :10:46. | |
golf course at the back of his Oxford home. | :10:47. | :10:48. | |
A place of peace, relaxation and harmony. | :10:49. | :10:50. | |
That was until the new rail line opened from Oxford to London. | :10:51. | :10:56. | |
It sounds like, at its worst, a lorry driving straight | :10:57. | :10:59. | |
There are already these sound barriers to limit noise. | :11:00. | :11:05. | |
But another requirement to install special dampers to make the track | :11:06. | :11:08. | |
quieter has so far not been adhered to. | :11:09. | :11:12. | |
I think it will cause a lot of distress and mental | :11:13. | :11:16. | |
health problems, frankly, because if people can't sleep | :11:17. | :11:18. | |
at night, if they can't enjoy their gardens in the summer, | :11:19. | :11:22. | |
More than 600 people have signed a petition urging | :11:23. | :11:28. | |
Oxford City Council to make sure Network Rail installs the dampers. | :11:29. | :11:33. | |
If it doesn't happen, residents fear the problem will get | :11:34. | :11:35. | |
Passenger trains have never been the major issue, | :11:36. | :11:41. | |
Those trains are going to be running overnight, so we are very worried | :11:42. | :11:47. | |
that they are going to be keeping us up. | :11:48. | :11:50. | |
One o'clock in the morning, you really don't want | :11:51. | :11:52. | |
Network Rail promised to look into whether Silent Track would be | :11:53. | :11:58. | |
worth the significant cost to install. | :11:59. | :12:00. | |
But the way Jeremy sees it, and hears it, is that something else | :12:01. | :12:15. | |
needs to be done. I'll have the headlines at 8pm | :12:16. | :12:17. | |
and a full bulletin at 10:30pm. Now more of today's | :12:18. | :12:25. | |
stories with Sally Taylor. Probably the saddest thing | :12:26. | :12:31. | |
was leaving him at hospital, knowing that we had to come home, | :12:32. | :12:33. | |
and it did feel that we were leaving For more information on Charlene's | :12:34. | :12:37. | |

The search is underway to find the 3,500 workers who'll be needed | :12:54. | :12:56. | |
Much of the town centre has been flattened to make way for new shops, | :12:57. | :13:01. | |
bars and restaurants as part of the scheme, which | :13:02. | :13:03. | |
Supporters say they're not the kind of jobs the new town was established | :13:04. | :13:08. | |
to create but they're vital to Bracknell's future prosperity. | :13:09. | :13:14. | |
A woman from West Sussex who's had breast implants removed | :13:15. | :13:16. | |
following health concerns is urging women to think twice before | :13:17. | :13:19. | |
Annette Stevens from Bognor Regis spent more than ?5,000 on a breast | :13:20. | :13:27. | |
enlargement in 2003 but spent ?6,000 having the implants removed last | :13:28. | :13:30. | |
year because she believed they were poisoning her. | :13:31. | :13:34. | |
Annette Stevens with the implants which were inside her | :13:35. | :13:40. | |
They were not bigger. They were full. | :13:41. | :13:51. | |
Annette told me her implants had leaked. | :13:52. | :13:53. | |
In recent years, she's suffered hair loss, depression, | :13:54. | :13:55. | |
insomnia, memory loss and other health problems. | :13:56. | :13:57. | |
Last October, Annette spent ?6,000 on an operation in Holland | :13:58. | :14:01. | |
She said she felt relieved and has since noticed health improvements. | :14:02. | :14:07. | |
I don't feel so cold any more, I've got a little bit more | :14:08. | :14:11. | |
I feel like my body's thanking me for listening to all of the symptoms | :14:12. | :14:19. | |
that I had that I thought I was just getting old. | :14:20. | :14:22. | |
Annette's implants were manufactured by a company called Silimed. | :14:23. | :14:24. | |
In 2015, their distribution was suspended while the EU | :14:25. | :14:26. | |
Last October, a report by the Dutch public health organisation RIVM | :14:27. | :14:30. | |
indicated the risk to patients was low and the government is now | :14:31. | :14:34. | |
The Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory | :14:35. | :14:42. | |
I don't know why I felt the need to have implants but, | :14:43. | :15:00. | |
if you look at the day and age we're in and how we're bombarded with | :15:01. | :15:12. | |
these pictures of being perfect, you know, boobs aren't everything. | :15:13. | :15:16. | |
Nobody's perfect and it's about loving the skin you're in, | :15:17. | :15:18. | |
loving who you are as a person, and it's taken me quite a long | :15:19. | :15:22. | |
Annette originally chose implants to help her confidence but now says | :15:23. | :15:25. | |
removing them has boosted it even more. | :15:26. | :15:32. | |
A former Royal Marine from Tidworth in Wiltshire who's recovering | :15:33. | :15:34. | |
from post-traumatic stress disorder is now trying for a world record. | :15:35. | :15:40. | |
Louis Nethercott will try to crawl, swim and trek his way | :15:41. | :15:42. | |
across the world's five largest islands unaided. | :15:43. | :15:47. | |
He's already completed the first stage - the jungles of Borneo. | :15:48. | :15:50. | |
Next, he'll head to Papua New Guinea then to Madagascar and Greenland | :15:51. | :15:53. | |
before finishing at Baffin Island in Canada. | :15:54. | :15:56. | |
I found it very hard to relax and chill out. | :15:57. | :16:03. | |
I was always expecting something to happen. | :16:04. | :16:05. | |
Louis was medically discharged from the Marines a few months ago | :16:06. | :16:09. | |
after returning home from the front line in Afghanistan. | :16:10. | :16:12. | |
He wants to raise awareness about the impact | :16:13. | :16:15. | |
My section lost two guys and a few others were injured | :16:16. | :16:21. | |
Something happens when you are on active service and, | :16:22. | :16:26. | |
when you come back, things have changed. | :16:27. | :16:28. | |
I felt like I was sort of in a different world. | :16:29. | :16:31. | |
It took just 40 days for former Marines Louis Nethercott | :16:32. | :16:33. | |
and Anthony Lambert to get across Borneo - the first | :16:34. | :16:37. | |
of the world's five biggest islands they're determined to conquer. | :16:38. | :16:42. | |
For Louis, the challenge has become a way of coping | :16:43. | :16:45. | |
We were just completely on our own in the jungle | :16:46. | :16:50. | |
there with nobody to be seen for miles. | :16:51. | :16:56. | |
It was an incredible experience but it was also incredibly tough, | :16:57. | :16:58. | |
Loads of people go the Poles nowadays, up Everest. | :16:59. | :17:02. | |
We wanted to come up with one that was a bit unique. | :17:03. | :17:05. | |
By taking on this expedition, he wants to raise funds | :17:06. | :17:07. | |
for the forces' charities that are helping him and hundreds | :17:08. | :17:10. | |
To think we've got another four ahead of us, I think we just have | :17:11. | :17:18. | |
to look at one at a time and, once that's done, move | :17:19. | :17:21. | |
If I just think of all four in my head, it becomes | :17:22. | :17:25. | |
The pair will set off for Papa New Guinea | :17:26. | :17:29. | |
They hope to finish all five islands at some point next year - | :17:30. | :17:33. | |
an endurance test that will push them almost to the limit. | :17:34. | :17:43. | |
Got some horse racing news for you, which is disappointing. | :17:44. | :17:54. | |
Dorset-trained racehorse Thistlecrack has been ruled out | :17:55. | :17:56. | |
Colin Tizzard's horse was the favourite for jump racing's | :17:57. | :18:02. | |
blue riband event but has suffered a tendon injury that will keep him | :18:03. | :18:05. | |
Tizzard still has leading fancies Cue Card and Native | :18:06. | :18:09. | |

game for the promotion chasers Jaap Stam's Reading | :18:24. | :18:25. | |
It's live on BBC Radio Berkshire tonight. | :18:26. | :18:28. | |
Tim Dellor will be commentating as the Royals aim to go seven unbeaten. | :18:29. | :18:38. | |
Anybody who has been following these royals know it is the Terriers and | :18:39. | :18:44. | |
cookies have been biting at their heels. Last season these two sides | :18:45. | :18:51. | |
met on four occasions. Earlier this season, Reading beat Huddersfield at | :18:52. | :18:55. | |
the Madejski Stadium. Whichever team wins the night, will finish third in | :18:56. | :19:00. | |
the Champion ship. We kick off here at 7:45pm. | :19:01. | :19:02. | |
Aldershot Town have revealed they've rejected an approach | :19:03. | :19:04. | |
for their management team led by Gary Waddock. | :19:05. | :19:06. | |
In a statement, the national league side say an unnamed League 1 club | :19:07. | :19:09. | |
masked to speak to Waddock and assistant James Rowe. | :19:10. | :19:11. | |
Both men have informed the club they're not interested in pursuing | :19:12. | :19:14. | |
Now to the story of the boxer who recovered from a freak injury | :19:15. | :19:18. | |
to fight his way back to the summit of the amateur game. | :19:19. | :19:21. | |
Greg Bridet saw his Olympic dreams shattered by a series of setbacks | :19:22. | :19:24. | |
but the Heart of Portsmouth boxer who trains at Southampton solent | :19:25. | :19:26. | |
university was back in the ring for a big win this past weekend. | :19:27. | :19:35. | |
Greg Bridet was back in the gym today and he is back on the boxing | :19:36. | :19:42. | |
scene in the big way. This weekend the former heavyweight champion won | :19:43. | :19:46. | |
the English title, quite a comeback for a fighter of Olympic dreams were | :19:47. | :19:51. | |
dashed by a freak injury two years ago. Having lunch, he got pain in | :19:52. | :20:01. | |
his chest. I went to A, collapsed, and are not a few hours I could have | :20:02. | :20:06. | |
died, my heart had no more room for better go and the chest cavity. I | :20:07. | :20:12. | |
had titanium staples. Big obstacle to overcome but it was good, I am | :20:13. | :20:17. | |
featured Greg in 2013. He was featured Greg in 2013. He was | :20:18. | :20:23. | |
targeting the Olympics in Rio. He was an emotional moment when he beat | :20:24. | :20:28. | |
Mason Holmes this weekend. Relief, the weight of the world lifted from | :20:29. | :20:32. | |
my shoulders. The implication almost, getting back bad fortune I | :20:33. | :20:42. | |
had had. The 27-year-old is now planning his next move and has also | :20:43. | :20:47. | |
sparred with Chris Eubank junior. Massive learning experience. A | :20:48. | :20:52. | |
little pointers here and there, he only improved by placing superior | :20:53. | :20:59. | |
opponents. I would also rather be a good amateur rather than a bad pro. | :21:00. | :21:04. | |
I'm not ruling anything out at the moment. Greg Bridet will compete the | :21:05. | :21:11. | |
Championships next month, further evidence his back punching his | :21:12. | :21:15. | |
weight. Amazing as treadmills can do weight. Amazing as treadmills can do | :21:16. | :21:17. | |
as well. The build-up continues | :21:18. | :21:19. | |
to Southampton's first appearance in a major Wembley Cup final for 38 | :21:20. | :21:21. | |
years and the man who was in charge that day and on their famous FA cup | :21:22. | :21:24. | |
visit in 1976 says the magic of winning a cup can outweigh | :21:25. | :21:28. | |
league achievements. Lawrie McMenemy masterminded | :21:29. | :21:30. | |
the win over Sunday's opponents Manchester United | :21:31. | :21:31. | |
in the spring of 76. Three years on, Saints lost | :21:32. | :21:36. | |
the League Cup final, but the memories span | :21:37. | :21:38. | |
generations for fans. It was such magic. This is a man | :21:39. | :21:56. | |
that manage the cup winning team, it all children who were asking for | :21:57. | :21:59. | |
autographs. Second in the league and all that, Wembley sticks and | :22:00. | :22:09. | |
people's minds. Oh, my word! We could be seeing scenes like that | :22:10. | :22:10. | |
again soon. An album of photographs revealing | :22:11. | :22:12. | |
the real Downton Abbey It shows life at Highclere Castle in | :22:13. | :22:14. | |
Berkshire more than 120 years ago - around the time the ITV drama that's | :22:15. | :22:18. | |
filmed there was first set. The album contains 44 photographs | :22:19. | :22:21. | |
of the 80-bedroom house, staff and grounds, providing | :22:22. | :22:23. | |
a fascinating glimpse into the lives of the fifth Earl of Carnarvon, | :22:24. | :22:26. | |
who was best known for helping to discover the Egyptian tomb | :22:27. | :22:31. | |
of Tutankhamen in 1922. A special delivery is one of the | :22:32. | :22:50. | |
UK's most recognisable house is. Thank you. An album that provides a | :22:51. | :22:58. | |
window into the real-life Downton Abbey is returning home after more | :22:59. | :23:03. | |
than a century. It is like a jigsaw puzzle and you were trying to piece | :23:04. | :23:06. | |
things back together again, figure out who was here, the names and if | :23:07. | :23:12. | |
you were not quite sure of something, the piano, I have put in | :23:13. | :23:20. | |
the drawing-room. The 1895 album the 44 photographs was found in a normal | :23:21. | :23:24. | |
house clearance in Dorset. The reason why was there is yet known. I | :23:25. | :23:30. | |
am not sure whether that was Streatfeild, the butler. It was set | :23:31. | :23:35. | |
to go under the hammer with a ?500 price tag but despite huge interest | :23:36. | :23:39. | |
from around the world it has been sold privately to the Highclere | :23:40. | :23:45. | |
estate. Everybody has been delighted with the outcome, it has come back. | :23:46. | :23:48. | |
But it could have gone to an American bidder. It may well have | :23:49. | :23:53. | |
done but sometimes what is so nice is it is not all about money. As the | :23:54. | :24:03. | |
ITV series follows the Earl of Grantham and his family, this album | :24:04. | :24:07. | |
features a snapshot of the life that the fifth Earl, George Herbert and | :24:08. | :24:13. | |
his wife. The famously bankrolled Howard Carter's discovery of the | :24:14. | :24:18. | |
tomb of Tutankhamun in the 1920s. It also marks a visitor Prince Edwards. | :24:19. | :24:26. | |
But it is not just the aristocracy featured here. In 1895, Highclere | :24:27. | :24:31. | |
would have been working house and would have been 60 members of staff | :24:32. | :24:35. | |
here and interestingly this album also shows what life would have been | :24:36. | :24:37. | |
60 members of staff here and interestingly this album also shows | :24:38. | :24:40. | |
what life would be like backstairs. I know my place! I think that is | :24:41. | :24:46. | |
what makes these house is live. Louis and Georgian everybody... That | :24:47. | :24:52. | |
is how it works. The photos could be on display when the house opens its | :24:53. | :24:57. | |
doors in the summer, far from a work of fiction, this piece of history is | :24:58. | :25:06. | |
now back where it belongs. Highclere Castle! | :25:07. | :25:12. | |

Doris is on her way. Through the course of the night, we are | :25:20. | :25:32. | |
expecting a fair amount of cloud and patchy rain in places, drizzly | :25:33. | :25:38. | |
conditions, but drier periods as well and mild temperatures. Winds | :25:39. | :25:41. | |
will increase in strength during the course of the night. That will keep | :25:42. | :25:45. | |
the mist and fog at the in most places with temperatures falling to | :25:46. | :25:48. | |
9-11 C. A dam start the day 9-11 C. A dam start the day | :25:49. | :25:54. | |
tomorrow, outbreaks of rain, one or two brighter spells, cloudy tomorrow | :25:55. | :25:58. | |
and mild as well, temperatures reaching a high of 11-12 C. The | :25:59. | :26:05. | |
breeze will be strong in particular. The rain will continue to strengthen | :26:06. | :26:09. | |
through the early hours of Thursday morning and by Thursday morning we | :26:10. | :26:13. | |
are expecting the next weather system which is part of storm Doris | :26:14. | :26:18. | |
and the area of pressure moving in from the Atlantic. Storm Doris is | :26:19. | :26:23. | |
expecting to affect areas in Midlands but for us in the south, | :26:24. | :26:28. | |
Oxfordshire has a Met Office wind warning. The rain will be very heavy | :26:29. | :26:33. | |
for the rush-hour dry to work. Most of the rain clears at lunchtime. | :26:34. | :26:37. | |
That is when the winds will try them and that is when we expect the | :26:38. | :26:42. | |
strongest of the winds. Wind gusts in Oxfordshire 60 mph, elsewhere, | :26:43. | :26:51. | |
50-55 mph. The low pressure pulls away into the North Sea and through | :26:52. | :26:55. | |
the course of Thursday afternoon in the evening, that is when the winds | :26:56. | :26:59. | |
will ease. There is that Met Office wind warning to Oxfordshire on | :27:00. | :27:06. | |
Thursday through the afternoon in particular. Friday, a lot of cloud. | :27:07. | :27:11. | |
It will break to allow the sunny spells and the odd isolated shower | :27:12. | :27:16. | |
that we expect rain at times do the course of Saturday with showers on | :27:17. | :27:22. | |
Sunday. Fairly cloudy of the next few days, limited brightness, and | :27:23. | :27:26. | |
Doris arrives on Thursday. We have been waiting for that. | :27:27. | :27:55. | |
