:00:01. > :00:11.Hello, I'm Sally Taylor. Welcome to South Today. In tonight's
:00:11. > :00:16.programme: one person is believed to have died as two light aircraft
:00:16. > :00:19.collide near Shoreham Airport. As rubbish piles up on the streets
:00:19. > :00:22.of Southampton, unions plan more action - this time to disrupt the
:00:22. > :00:26.port. I am proud of Southampton, I don't
:00:26. > :00:29.like the city being like it is at the moment.

:00:48. > :00:50.helped this ten-year-old add One person has been killed after
:00:50. > :00:53.two light aircraft collided in mid- air over Sussex. The accident
:00:53. > :00:56.happened shortly after 4:30pm this afternoon. One aircraft managed to
:00:56. > :01:05.land at Shoreham Airport, but the other came down at the Arun
:01:05. > :01:11.The Sussex Air Ambulance and fire crews were called to the scene. Our
:01:11. > :01:16.reporter Tony Husband is there now. The Tony, at this stage, what can
:01:16. > :01:22.you tell us? This was an incident that occurred
:01:22. > :01:27.involving two light aircraft. Around two hours ago, it appears
:01:27. > :01:31.the clash was between two planes, one of the -- one of them we
:01:31. > :01:35.believe may have been landing at nearby Shoreham Airport. The plane
:01:35. > :01:38.came down a couple of hundred metres from a children's playground
:01:39. > :01:44.and it is believed that the accident then led to the vitality
:01:44. > :01:50.that has now been reported by Sussex Police. One person concerned
:01:50. > :01:57.dead, in the plane that crashed in the recreation field where I am now
:01:57. > :02:02.standing. Police have closed the A259 Brighton Road around this area,
:02:02. > :02:12.there is a major investigation underway.
:02:12. > :02:22.
:02:22. > :02:26.De one which landed at nearby Shoreham Airport, -- one of them
:02:26. > :02:30.landed at nearby Shoreham Airport. We do know the pilot of the plane
:02:30. > :02:35.that crashed at the Recreation Ground has died tonight.
:02:36. > :02:38.We apologise for the sound quality, that was live by broadband.
:02:38. > :02:42.One eyewitness told us what happened when the collision
:02:42. > :02:46.occurred. It was a mid-air collision. A plane
:02:46. > :02:51.had taken off from Shoreham Airport and was heading towards the sea,
:02:51. > :02:58.another one was coming west to east. You can hear the helicopters coming
:02:59. > :03:02.in to land. Yes, I can. The police and ambulance helicopter is just
:03:02. > :03:07.arriving. The one that was coming west to east came straight across
:03:07. > :03:12.the front of the one that had taken off and I saw the wing hit the
:03:12. > :03:17.other one, a lump fell off. That aircraft actually managed to land
:03:17. > :03:23.again, but the other one was just... Oh, it was awful.
:03:23. > :03:28.One person dead after two light aircraft collided in mid-air over
:03:28. > :03:30.Sussex. Any more news on that and we will bring it to you during the
:03:30. > :03:33.programme. For six weeks, householders and
:03:33. > :03:36.businesses in Southampton have been living with sights like this,
:03:36. > :03:39.uncollected rubbish building up in streets and parks. Today, unions
:03:39. > :03:43.said they would extend the strike so that it affected the operation
:03:43. > :03:46.of the city's port. Next week council-employed health officials
:03:46. > :03:49.at the Port of Southampton will also go on strike. Unison, Unite
:03:49. > :03:52.and the GMB say that move will affect cruise ships and prevent
:03:52. > :03:55.some imports. It is the fall-out from a dispute between Southampton
:03:55. > :04:05.City Council and members of the Unite union over pay cuts. Roisin
:04:05. > :04:11.Gauson reports. It is unsightly, a magnet for vermin, and have been
:04:11. > :04:15.piling up for weeks. It should not be done. It is rubbish. You cannot
:04:15. > :04:20.even walk straight. I now have flies landing on me, which is
:04:20. > :04:23.telling. It tells you about the state of this place, it is
:04:23. > :04:25.unpleasant. As the build-up of rubbish
:04:26. > :04:28.escalates, so does the strike action. From the kerbside to the
:04:28. > :04:36.dockside, Southampton's port is the latest target. Council staff there
:04:36. > :04:42.will walk out next week as the row over pay cuts continues. The port
:04:42. > :04:47.health certificates livestock, food, sanitation. We have incoming and
:04:47. > :04:51.outgoing products through the containers, through the cruise
:04:51. > :04:54.liners, and we believe it will have significant impact. The action has
:04:54. > :04:59.the potential to bring one of the UK's busiest ports to a halt.
:04:59. > :05:03.Unions estimate it could cost the city �1 million each day. We are
:05:03. > :05:07.hoping it will not be as significant as they will predict.
:05:07. > :05:10.We are looking at contingencies, of course. The dock is the main
:05:10. > :05:14.economic driver of the City and if they want to bring the city to its
:05:14. > :05:17.knees, let them tell the residents that is what they want to do.
:05:17. > :05:21.on the streets, some landlords have decided to take matters into their
:05:21. > :05:25.own hands and bring in contract cleaners. They find there is a lot
:05:25. > :05:30.of rubbish outside, up the street, so it is not good. Parents are
:05:30. > :05:34.asking what is going on, so there is a general disquiet. I am proud
:05:34. > :05:37.of Southampton, I don't like this city being like it is at the moment.
:05:37. > :05:40.They say first impressions are everything. New students moving to
:05:40. > :05:44.Southampton will be greeted by a city with public services at a
:05:44. > :05:47.standstill. So it is clear people in
:05:47. > :05:50.Southampton are the losers in this dispute, but who is winning? And
:05:50. > :05:56.how much longer can it last? Our political editor Peter Henley joins
:05:56. > :06:00.me from Westminster. Where is this going, Peter?
:06:00. > :06:04.As far as council leaders are concerned, Monday is the deadline,
:06:04. > :06:11.the day for new contracts, when staff will have to have signed them
:06:11. > :06:15.or face dismissal, be dismissed. From the council's point of view,
:06:15. > :06:20.that is when they will make the savings by getting people to accept
:06:21. > :06:24.pay cuts. By saving 400 jobs, making cuts without cutting
:06:24. > :06:28.services. But from the union's point of view, they say Monday is
:06:28. > :06:31.the day when the council will see the full anger of staff in
:06:31. > :06:36.Southampton, and that the strikes they have had so far have managed
:06:36. > :06:42.to keep the public opinion on their side because it has not, despite
:06:42. > :06:46.the piling up of rubbish, actually turned people against the strikers.
:06:46. > :06:49.In fact, it has shown, the union's claim, that people value their
:06:49. > :06:54.public services and when they see the vital role that the council
:06:55. > :06:58.also plays in the docks, that will reinforce that. Both sides say they
:06:58. > :07:01.are prepared to go back to the negotiating table but it does not
:07:01. > :07:06.look at the moment like a well. What is the indication of the
:07:06. > :07:11.number of staff who will sign the new contract by next Monday?
:07:11. > :07:14.It is passed 70% already, but it is perhaps not a good indication
:07:14. > :07:18.because the union has advised their members it is a good idea for them
:07:18. > :07:21.to sign up. They are taking a parallel legal case for unfair
:07:21. > :07:27.dismissal saying unfair pressure has been put on staff to sign these,
:07:27. > :07:32.so we could get 100%. One of the things the council is worried about
:07:32. > :07:36.is losing key staff, people who will not sign up to his new
:07:36. > :07:42.contract and on Tuesday start work somewhere else. I am told there are
:07:42. > :07:45.golden hellos being offered for people like social workers, and
:07:45. > :07:55.that Southampton City Council face losing people like that unless they
:07:55. > :07:56.
:07:56. > :07:59.come up with a contingency. Thank you.
:07:59. > :08:02.Two woman are in a serious condition after being knocked down
:08:02. > :08:05.by a car in Gosport. It happened as they were crossing Stoke Road just
:08:06. > :08:08.after 11pm on Saturday night. The car failed to stop and drove off
:08:08. > :08:10.down Spring Garden Lane. Three people are helping police with
:08:10. > :08:12.their inquiries and officers are appealing for information.
:08:13. > :08:15.New figures show the Dorset coastline saw more scuba diving
:08:15. > :08:17.accidents last year than anywhere else in the country. Portland
:08:17. > :08:27.Coastguard dealt with 41 separate diving incidents, including three
:08:27. > :08:30.
:08:31. > :08:33.deaths - more than three times the national average.
:08:34. > :08:36.Labour is demanding a review of the Government's decision to build a
:08:37. > :08:39.new fleet of trains for Brighton in Germany. The contract, worth more
:08:39. > :08:42.than �2 billion, is going to Siemens. Britain's last remaining
:08:42. > :08:45.train manufacturer lost out. Labour says it puts up to 20,000 jobs at
:08:45. > :08:47.risk. Our transport correspondent Paul Clifton is here. Talk us
:08:48. > :08:50.through this, because 20,000 jobs sounds like a very big number
:08:50. > :08:53.indeed. Last month, the Government awarded
:08:53. > :08:57.the contract for a new generation of Thameslink trains to the German
:08:57. > :09:00.company Siemens. Here is what they will look like. The Department for
:09:00. > :09:04.Transport says these trains offer the best value for money. But the
:09:04. > :09:09.loser was Britain's last remaining train builder in Derby. It could
:09:09. > :09:11.lose a couple of thousand jobs. But there would be many more in the
:09:12. > :09:17.supply chain, the people who make thousands of different parts for
:09:17. > :09:19.the trains. Labour reckons 20,000 British jobs are at risk. So the
:09:19. > :09:26.Southampton MP and Shadow Business Secretary John Denham has written
:09:26. > :09:30.to the Prime Minister asking him to think again.
:09:30. > :09:34.I want them to review this decision, to question whether it was right,
:09:34. > :09:39.and then to get into serious negotiations about the future
:09:39. > :09:45.delivery of these contracts, we debut, fairly, to getting as much
:09:45. > :09:48.for UK manufacturing as they possibly can. -- with a view.
:09:48. > :09:50.Brighton has needed new trains for a long time. This process was
:09:50. > :09:53.actually drawn up by Labour, not the Conservatives?
:09:53. > :09:56.Yes, this tender for trains was Labour's project. It was once
:09:56. > :10:01.called Thameslink 2000, because that was the year it was meant to
:10:01. > :10:05.finish. No where near, is it? These old ones will be refurbished and
:10:05. > :10:08.moved to Reading. John Denham's point is this: Under EU rules, all
:10:08. > :10:11.European bidders for a British contract must be treated equally.
:10:11. > :10:19.But look at Germany. All the trains there are built in Germany. Look at
:10:19. > :10:22.France. All the trains are French. It is the same in Spain and Italy.
:10:22. > :10:25.Here, we have trains from Germany, France, Spain, and Japan. Do we
:10:25. > :10:31.interpret the rules differently here? We invented railways in this
:10:31. > :10:38.country. But, tomorrow morning, our last remaining train builder is
:10:38. > :10:41.going to make a big announcement about its future. I don't know what
:10:41. > :10:49.it is, but I do think it will involve thousands of job losses.
:10:49. > :10:59.We will watch with interest and have bad news tomorrow. -- that
:10:59. > :11:08.
:11:08. > :11:11.A big row is breaking out in West Sussex over a small stretch of
:11:11. > :11:20.country path. The long distance Liphook to Chichester path is
:11:20. > :11:23.barricaded off near Midhurst due to a development. The South Downs
:11:24. > :11:33.Society says the changes have been pushed three.
:11:34. > :11:36.
:11:36. > :11:39.It is a beautiful road. I am sure we will find a solution.
:11:39. > :11:41.A new 700-place park and ride scheme for football fans going to
:11:41. > :11:45.the new Falmer Stadium has been given council approval. Brighton
:11:45. > :11:48.and Hove Albion move to the stadium in time for the new football season.
:11:48. > :11:50.Planners have given consent for the use of car parks at Brighton
:11:50. > :11:53.racecourse. A fleet of eight double-decker buses will run
:11:53. > :11:55.between there and Falmer. It is thought 2,000 spectators would use
:11:55. > :11:57.the service during matches. Still to come in this evening's
:11:57. > :12:03.South Today: Find out later why this young
:12:03. > :12:07.golfer has a new discovered a lease of life.
:12:07. > :12:11.There is concern amongst farmers in Hampshire about the spread of TB in
:12:11. > :12:14.cattle. It comes after a number of animals had to be slaughtered after
:12:14. > :12:17.testing positive for the disease. It is a part of the country which
:12:18. > :12:20.has not previously had a problem. But the tests are not 100% accurate.
:12:21. > :12:23.Last week we reported how farmers in Dorset, where the disease is
:12:23. > :12:29.more prevalent, were calling for a cull of badgers. Badger protection
:12:29. > :12:33.groups disagree about the need for a cull. Jo Kent reports.
:12:33. > :12:36.A herd of dairy cows being tested for bovine TB. The tests are
:12:36. > :12:40.routine in this low-risk part of Hampshire every four years, but in
:12:40. > :12:47.March one of this herd tested positive. Others were found to be
:12:47. > :12:52.borderline cases. The farmer did not want to be interviewed on
:12:52. > :12:55.camera, but this is a worrying time. Three of his head have had to be
:12:55. > :12:59.slaughtered, although subsequent investigations showed no trace of
:12:59. > :13:03.the disease. The testing is only 80% accurate but in the meantime
:13:03. > :13:09.the farmers effectively closed down, he is unable to sell any of these
:13:09. > :13:12.cards, which has financial cost and great emotional stress. To get back
:13:12. > :13:15.on track, a farm which has had a positive result will have to pass
:13:15. > :13:18.two more tests 60 days apart. The testing and compensation for
:13:18. > :13:22.farmers who have animals slaughtered all comes at a cost -
:13:22. > :13:26.around �100 million of taxpayers' money a year. 32,000 cattle were
:13:26. > :13:30.slaughtered because of bovine TB last year. The figure was just
:13:30. > :13:33.6,000 ten years ago. Farmer Neil Cutler used to head up the animal
:13:33. > :13:36.health branch of the National Farmer's Union, and is worried
:13:36. > :13:45.about the spread of the disease. Like many farmers, he supports a
:13:45. > :13:49.badger cull. We have got healthy badgers here, as far as we know, in
:13:49. > :13:54.most parts of Hampshire, probably all of Hampshire, and we would like
:13:54. > :13:58.it to stay that way. We have never been talking about a national cull
:13:58. > :14:02.of badgers, we have been talking about a targeted cull in certain
:14:02. > :14:04.areas to reduce the load of the disease in that area and enable
:14:04. > :14:11.cattle controls to work as well. However, animal rights campaigners
:14:11. > :14:15.believe it is unnecessary. Badgers are on the fringe of this, by far
:14:15. > :14:19.the major contribution will be made by the cattle controls that the
:14:19. > :14:25.government has already put in and intensified. A vaccine for bovine
:14:25. > :14:29.TB would be the ideal solution, but that is still years away. Farmers
:14:29. > :14:32.want action now to stop it spreading.
:14:32. > :14:34.Wildlife conservationists in Dorset have begun a new scheme aimed at
:14:34. > :14:40.encouraging dog owners to keep their animals under control during
:14:40. > :14:45.the ground nesting season for birds. A similar move several years ago in
:14:45. > :14:48.the New Forest resulted in protests from dog walkers. So will this one,
:14:48. > :14:53.which is intended to be less authoritarian, work for the
:14:53. > :14:58.heathland in Dorset? Chris Coneybeer reports.
:14:58. > :15:02.Not long now and the season will be over, but a few birds are still
:15:02. > :15:06.making nests on the ground in the hope of raising some of spring.
:15:06. > :15:11.Lapwings, nightjars and the Dartford warbler among them. It is
:15:11. > :15:17.a tough job with predators like crows and foxes around, and other
:15:17. > :15:21.dangers, especially dogs. A few years ago in the New Forest,
:15:21. > :15:25.docking stones were -- dog free zones were proposed for when the
:15:25. > :15:28.birds were vulnerable. The plan was to close some car parks to
:15:29. > :15:32.discourage people from using certain areas but the suggestion
:15:32. > :15:37.caused outrage. Dog owners thought the Forest should be open to their
:15:37. > :15:42.pets. Now, in Dorset, they are trying to tackle the same problem
:15:42. > :15:46.with a new initiative. Signs are going up. It is a traffic light
:15:46. > :15:51.system. Green means dogs can run free, amber, they must be on a lead,
:15:51. > :15:57.and red means banned. Bed numbers have been declining over the years,
:15:57. > :16:02.so we are trying to help protect them -- bird numbers. A dog running
:16:02. > :16:04.through the heathland can frighten the birds, and if they disturb them
:16:05. > :16:10.enough times they will be frightened and wait. But success
:16:10. > :16:13.depends on the reaction of dog owners. -- frightened away. I am
:16:13. > :16:18.used to walking my dog without a lead, so it will be annoying, but
:16:18. > :16:24.if it is to protect birds, it is worth it. Would you put your dog on
:16:24. > :16:28.a lead he saw the sign? No. I would keep my dog under control, but he

:16:54. > :16:57.sleuth Sherlock Holmes. What you may not know is that he was also a
:16:57. > :17:00.one-time Surrey resident. This is where he lived from 1897 to 1907 -
:17:00. > :17:03.Undershaw House, an Edwardian villa at Hindhead. But now a plan to
:17:03. > :17:07.convert the building into nine townhouses has ended up in the
:17:07. > :17:12.courts. On one side, Waverley Borough Council. On the other, a
:17:12. > :17:19.Conan Doyle enthusiast who is funding the legal battle himself.
:17:19. > :17:22.Sarah-Jane Bungay explains. "An endless sea of greenery, ranges
:17:22. > :17:29.of hills piling up, one behind the other, in undulations of varying
:17:29. > :17:33.blue". The view which inspired Sir Arthur Conan Doyle to create his
:17:33. > :17:35.literary magic at Undershaw remains the same. But the house where he
:17:35. > :17:43.penned classics like The Hound Of The Baskervilles has changed
:17:43. > :17:47.somewhat. What we would like to see is these major rooms retained
:17:47. > :17:51.broadly in their current form. Derelict for several years, the
:17:51. > :17:56.council says its decision to grant permission for a conversion into
:17:56. > :18:01.townhouses at least secures the building's future. Or timidly, the
:18:01. > :18:05.building does need to have the use, I am happy for people to live in it
:18:05. > :18:09.to maintain it. We are concerned that any of the use did not seem
:18:09. > :18:13.viable, so we thought this was the best use to protect the building
:18:13. > :18:18.and give it a good future. Those fighting to keep it as it is to
:18:18. > :18:22.have some high-profile backing. The actor Stephen Fry have said -- has
:18:23. > :18:29.said if the house is divided up, it will be foolish, short-sighted and
:18:29. > :18:31.nothing less than wanton vandalism. John Gibson is a passionate man.
:18:31. > :18:34.Changing it substantially and denying the public any future
:18:34. > :18:37.access would, in his eyes, be the ultimate crime. He is taking
:18:37. > :18:41.Waverley Borough Council to the High Court, arguing they acted
:18:41. > :18:48.unlawfully in granting the planning permission. It's an action he is
:18:48. > :18:55.funding alone. By a am not a rich man, this will hurt me financially
:18:55. > :18:59.but I consider it an honour to take this case. It will be an absolute
:18:59. > :19:02.disgrace, it would be a terrible loss. With so many twists and turns
:19:02. > :19:12.in the story of this house, Sherlock Holmes himself may have
:19:12. > :19:16.
:19:16. > :19:21.struggled to solve the mystery of what will ultimately happen to it.
:19:21. > :19:26.On to sport, Roger is here. I have not said this for a long time, but
:19:26. > :19:32.let's start with football. How long to go? It is a month and two Day.
:19:32. > :19:42.thought it was less than a month. It comes around quickly. Brighton

:19:43. > :19:45.have smashed their transfer record, moving to a new stadium.
:19:45. > :19:48.For 31 years, Brighton's transfer record stood at half a million
:19:48. > :19:51.pounds for Andy Ritchie in 1980. Last month, they finally broke that,
:19:51. > :19:54.signing Will Buckley from Watford for a million. They are not putting
:19:54. > :19:57.a figure on the deal to sign 27- year-old striker Craig Mackail-
:19:57. > :20:00.Smith from Peterborough, but it is understood to be around �3 million.
:20:01. > :20:04.He has signed a four-year contract today and, for the second time in
:20:04. > :20:06.the space of a few weeks, they have smashed a decades-old club record.
:20:07. > :20:10.Mackail-Smith posed at Albion's brand new Amex Stadium, as if to
:20:10. > :20:13.underline the club's burgeoning ambitions.
:20:13. > :20:18.It is an exciting thing for me to come here. The way they play, they
:20:18. > :20:21.create chances, and as a striker you want to be in a team that
:20:21. > :20:24.creates chances. To get to the Premiership is the ultimate aim,
:20:24. > :20:29.and I feel Brighton are pushing back and I want to be involved in
:20:29. > :20:32.that. A cracking player as well, and apparently West Ham were also
:20:32. > :20:34.interested in him, so well done to Brighton.
:20:34. > :20:37.Portsmouth's players returned to training this morning after their
:20:37. > :20:40.summer break with the need for new faces obvious to anyone watching.
:20:40. > :20:43.Pompey only had nine professionals on the training pitch. There are
:20:43. > :20:45.three more still to return, so a starting eleven and one substitute
:20:45. > :20:48.for the new Championship season. But with the new owners Convers
:20:48. > :20:51.Sports Initiatives now in place, the Pompey boss is hoping for a
:20:51. > :20:56.brisk recruitment drive. Although you will notice he is choosing his
:20:56. > :21:05.words carefully. We need to fulfil our scored a
:21:05. > :21:09.little bit more, really. -- our squad. We know that. It is ongoing.
:21:09. > :21:17.It has been busy all summer. A lot of the deals are there, lined up,
:21:17. > :21:22.really. It is just, you know, down to getting them across the line.
:21:22. > :21:26.He has got a lot on his my. One match under way in the
:21:26. > :21:36.cricket's 2020 competition this evening. Cricket -- Sussex have
:21:36. > :21:39.gone off like a train -- sorry have gone off like a train. Steve Davis
:21:39. > :21:42.is currently 65 not out. Finally, a young golfer who puts
:21:42. > :21:45.hackers like me to shame! Leo Millar has developed into a
:21:45. > :21:48.talented player, even though he was born with only one hand. Now, a
:21:48. > :21:55.Dorset company has invented a new prosthetic which could help him
:21:55. > :22:01.improve his game even more. Dani Like most ten-year-olds, Leo is
:22:01. > :22:04.into his sport. Born with one hand, he has had to adapt the way he does
:22:05. > :22:07.things. Karate was his first love. Now a brown belt, he is two levels
:22:08. > :22:13.away from getting his black one. And his progression is partly due
:22:13. > :22:18.to a specially designed prosthetic. But when it comes to playing golf,
:22:18. > :22:21.that design won't do. Leo needs a grip that allows him to swing with
:22:21. > :22:31.both hands. And it is in this Dorset workshop where engineers
:22:31. > :22:35.have come up with the bionic solution. It changes their lives.
:22:35. > :22:39.Leo would never be able to play golf at a competitive level without
:22:39. > :22:43.this device, so it actually puts him on a level playing field with
:22:43. > :22:45.everybody else. It completely changes his life. Presented with
:22:45. > :22:51.this bespoke hand grip, Leo's dreams of becoming a professional
:22:51. > :22:56.golfer have moved a step closer. feel very happy that I have got a
:22:56. > :23:01.hand now, because I can do a lot more with it. Hopefully it will
:23:01. > :23:04.change my life, now I can get money by playing golf and give some to my
:23:04. > :23:09.family and made them a lot better. Like his swing, this young
:23:09. > :23:13.sportsman's drive is at the heart of everything he does. Leo is
:23:13. > :23:17.special. He is truly special because of his attitude. I have
:23:17. > :23:21.never said to him, go and do something, and he has come back and
:23:21. > :23:30.said, I can't do it. Whatever I give him, he will find a way of
:23:30. > :23:35.doing it. Aiming high. Could this be the Rory McIlroy of the future?
:23:35. > :23:41.What a guy, extremely talented. Good look. I hope it goes well for
:23:41. > :23:45.him. -- good luck. It returned to our main story, one
:23:45. > :23:50.person has been killed after two light aircraft collided over
:23:50. > :23:56.Shoreham in Sussex this afternoon. Tony Husband is there for us. What
:23:56. > :23:59.can you tell us? What developments? Salih, we are hoping to hear from
:23:59. > :24:04.the officer in charge at the Recreation Ground just close to
:24:04. > :24:07.Shoreham town-centre in the next few minutes to update us on what
:24:07. > :24:10.happened at 4:30pm This afternoon a couple of hundred yards from a
:24:11. > :24:15.children's play area. Two light aircraft are believed to have
:24:15. > :24:20.collided in mid-air. It is thought one of them was taking off from
:24:20. > :24:24.nearby Shoreham Airport, one of the aircraft crashed into this
:24:24. > :24:26.Recreation Ground, the other managed to make a shake -- a safe
:24:26. > :24:33.landing at Shoreham Airport. The pilot of the plane that crashed
:24:33. > :24:38.here behind the was declared dead at the scene, no injuries from any
:24:38. > :24:42.people who saw the incident on the ground. We had a lot of eyewitness
:24:42. > :24:45.reports. A massive police operation has now begun, coastguard
:24:46. > :24:51.helicopters were scrambled, life boat as well have been searching
:24:51. > :24:55.the nearby river from all parts of the wreckage. This is a huge police
:24:55. > :24:59.operation, many roads have been closer banned the area so it will
:24:59. > :25:03.be difficult for people getting in and out of Shoreham tonight -- many
:25:04. > :25:08.roads have been closed around the area. We are hoping to get more
:25:08. > :25:10.information, but one person has been killed after two light
:25:11. > :25:16.aircraft crashed near Shoreham Airport.
:25:16. > :25:25.Tony, thank you very much. We will have more on that in the late news
:25:25. > :25:28.Straight onto the weather, them. Yes, it has been a lovely day and
:25:29. > :25:34.it will continue for part of the day tomorrow but then it turns
:25:34. > :25:40.unsettled. We have low-pressure moving in from the Atlantic. Today
:25:40. > :25:45.in Oxfordshire we saw 24 Celsius. Tomorrow it will drop four degrees
:25:45. > :25:49.down to 20 Celsius. Temperatures this week will start to slide away.
:25:49. > :25:54.A dry night, increasing cloud cover in the morning, particularly the
:25:54. > :26:00.further west you are. Where we have clear skies, temperatures was a
:26:00. > :26:06.mild, in double figures. In some countryside areas, expect lows of
:26:06. > :26:12.13, 14 Celsius. You can see the rain behind me arriving in Dorset
:26:12. > :26:17.late morning, 10am, 11am, spreading towards the east throughout the day.
:26:17. > :26:21.There will be some respite, temperatures at their highest the
:26:21. > :26:25.further west you are. Temperatures will start falling away with the
:26:25. > :26:31.rain rattling its way through. Clearing tomorrow night followed by
:26:31. > :26:34.a few showers, which may be heavy in some places. One or two clear
:26:34. > :26:38.spells, but temperatures will stay mild yet again, so another
:26:38. > :26:42.uncomfortable night for sleeping. On Wednesday, a couple of showers
:26:42. > :26:46.drifting around and another band of rain waiting in the wings of their
:26:46. > :26:52.stay, which will be a mixture of sun is bows and scattered showers,
:26:52. > :26:57.and the winners will start to pick up speed, -- sunny spells. As we
:26:57. > :27:01.head to Friday, low-pressure still in charge, not going anywhere
:27:01. > :27:07.quickly, various weather fronts heading our way, which could be
:27:07. > :27:13.heavy in places. The rest of the week will be unsettled, sunny
:27:13. > :27:18.spells and scattered showers. A dry start for eastern areas tomorrow
:27:18. > :27:22.will allow temperatures to rise to around 23 Celsius. Under the cloud
:27:22. > :27:27.and in the rain, temperatures into the high teens. It will not be as
:27:27. > :27:32.warm as it was at the weekend, and the winds will pick up speed, with
