:01:32. > :01:36.They are a very strong family and Scott was very

:02:06. > :02:08.is bad and people who would have come from London but again
:02:09. > :02:12.We have people who have come from the Greater Manchester, Person area.
:02:13. > :02:15.I have only comes 50 miles, so it is a small trip.

:03:10. > :03:12.It's after an Oxford University professor reported Amber Rudd,

:03:16. > :03:19.She suggested tightening rules that allow UK firms to recruit

:03:31. > :03:32.Plans for Reading's Hexagon theatre to be replaced
:03:33. > :03:35.by a new 2,000 seat venue have had a setback.
:03:36. > :03:37.The council has found that while there is demand
:03:38. > :03:39.for a new facility it would need subsidising
:03:40. > :03:41.and the money needed isn't available.
:03:42. > :03:49.This was the Hexagon's best ever pantomime season.
:03:50. > :03:57.But it is an old building and not as versatile as it could be.
:03:58. > :04:02.As you can see, it has seats behind but it does not have any wing space
:04:03. > :04:06.so an actor waiting to come in, you have to draw back these curtains
:04:07. > :04:09.or wait behind the doors or squeeze in there.
:04:10. > :04:12.That works really well for things like stand-up comedy and music
:04:13. > :04:16.but it doesn't work so well for straight theatre plays.
:04:17. > :04:30.People won't come here, unfortunately, and as such people
:04:31. > :04:33.-- as such Reading do not see theatre companies like the RSC,
:04:34. > :04:35.the Donmar and all these great companies.
:04:36. > :04:38.That's why Reading Borough Council wants a new 2000 seater theatre,
:04:39. > :04:41.But it hopes appear to remain just that.
:04:42. > :04:44.Its own consultation has found that such a facility cannot be built
:04:45. > :04:47.or run without a large council subsidy - and that, right
:04:48. > :04:51.Reading - like a lot of councils - has suffered a lot of cuts.
:04:52. > :04:54.We have lost about ?60 million of funding which we got
:04:55. > :04:59.So, these big scale capital projects, you do have to prioritise
:05:00. > :05:04.but in the future I would be hopeful that we can deliver
:05:05. > :05:12.The market does suggest it would be a good option.
:05:13. > :05:15.So - disappointing news for many but with such varied productions
:05:16. > :05:18.being staged in other venues, some question whether focusing
:05:19. > :05:25.on a large theatre was the right choice in the first place.
:05:26. > :05:27.Does Reading need a 2000 seat theatre right now
:05:28. > :05:32.I do not know that it necessarily would, so I wouldn't be
:05:33. > :05:39.There is exciting things to come, we have new project by South Street,
:05:40. > :05:41.Reading Rep have new writing projects coming up.
:05:42. > :05:44.I am sure all the other arts organisations around
:05:45. > :05:49.Reading have a lot of work which is equally exciting.
:05:50. > :05:52.So the Hexagon will remain Reading's largest venue but arts communities
:05:53. > :05:56.here are determined to continue developing the town's
:05:57. > :06:06.Back in 1970, Bronwyn Burrell was the youngest driver
:06:07. > :06:09.in the World Cup Rally from London to Mexico.
:06:10. > :06:12.Now, half a century later, she's been reunited with her car
:06:13. > :06:16.and is competing again at the age of 72.
:06:17. > :06:20.She's planning to re-stage the first leg of the rally this April.
:06:21. > :06:25.John Maguire caught up with her in training in Oxfordshire.
:06:26. > :06:27.Wembley, 1970, and a car rally marks the handover
:06:28. > :06:30.of the World Cup hosting duties from England to Mexico.
:06:31. > :06:34.Sir Alf Ramsey waves them off - and in car 20, three woman
:06:35. > :06:43.We were going to be away for six weeks.
:06:44. > :06:49.It seemed like a lifetime but it wasn't a lifetime, it was a flash.
:06:50. > :06:52.Gosh, there is and our lovely green C dresses and red puffer jackets.
:06:53. > :07:04.I had very long hair, so unmanageable, really,
:07:05. > :07:08.it was a stupid thing not to have short hair for that.
:07:09. > :07:20.The team was well prepared - mechanically and personally.
:07:21. > :07:23.We decided the best bet here was to have paper
:07:24. > :07:25.knickers, so we had colour-coded paper knickers.
:07:26. > :07:29.I think Tish was pink and Tina was blue.
:07:30. > :07:31.So we could discard them, we didn't have to worry
:07:32. > :07:34.Such ingenuity may now return, as almost 50 years on,
:07:35. > :07:36.Bronwyn has recently bought the original car, nicknamed
:07:37. > :07:39.Puff the Magic Wagon, and they're ready to race again.
:07:40. > :07:42.Back to the car again but what a shame Tish is longer with us.
:07:43. > :07:48.She loved to be doing it all again like we are going to be doing.
:07:49. > :07:51.We're going to miss her when we need her to change a tyre, you know.
:07:52. > :07:54.The joy was she'd be jacking up the tyre,
:07:55. > :07:57.you'd be loosening the nuts, I'd be getting the wheel off.
:07:58. > :08:00.Give you the wheel, you give me the wheel,
:08:01. > :08:10.I tell you what, shall we take her out round the track?
:08:11. > :08:17.Bronwyn hasn't driven competitively since the early '70s
:08:18. > :08:20.Well, as you can see, Bronwyn definitely comes
:08:21. > :08:24.She's certainly not lacking in confidence out there in the car,
:08:25. > :08:27.but you also see she is making quite a load of little mistakes and that's
:08:28. > :08:30.why she's coming back to us a little bit in the future
:08:31. > :08:33.In April, they'll drive to Portugal once again,
:08:34. > :08:37.It's a bit more controlled because of health and safety.
:08:38. > :08:39.You know, you can't do what you used to do.
:08:40. > :08:43.We used to do rallies and have one night 's sleep in five days.
:08:44. > :08:46.Well, the sport may have changed, but the car and especially
:08:47. > :08:51.the driver look as fast and furious as ever.
:08:52. > :08:53.It's been snowing in some parts of our region.
:08:54. > :08:58.This sleet was filmed in Nuneham Courtenay in south
:08:59. > :09:03.The Met Office says the cold weather will continue into tomorrow
:09:04. > :09:05.with the possibility of ice in the morning.
