:01:06. > :01:08.The case notes of more than 550 children with epilepsy are being
:01:08. > :01:13.reviewed after a paediatric consultant at a Surrey hospital was
:01:13. > :01:16.suspended. Dr Nic Driver was taken out of his post in February

:01:52. > :01:58.with regards to the diagnosis and treatment of specific patients who
:01:58. > :02:02.were under the care of Dr Nic Driver. So we are talking about

:03:13. > :03:20.The hospital is standing by its man. They say there is no question of
:03:20. > :03:23.malice in any of that allegations. No question of abuse either.
:03:23. > :03:28.Colleagues describe Dr Nic Driver as hard-working, diligent and
:03:28. > :03:38.caring. The air are no absolute boundaries or criteria for making a
:03:38. > :03:42.diagnosis. If I make and -- a diagnosis of an ulcer it is because
:03:42. > :03:48.I can see it. It is much more difficult to diagnose something
:03:48. > :03:53.like epilepsy. We contacted Dr Nic Driver, he said he could not
:03:53. > :03:57.comment because investigations were ongoing. It is a worrying time for
:03:57. > :04:00.all involved. A man died after the 4x4 he was
:04:00. > :04:03.driving crashed into a highways vehicle parked on the hard shoulder
:04:03. > :04:06.of the M27 in Hampshire. The accident happened at about a
:04:06. > :04:08.quarter to 11 on the eastbound carriageway of the motorway in Ower,

:04:50. > :04:54.The Vincent Clare was camping on this site with his wife to
:04:55. > :04:59.celebrate his 50th birthday. But the trip ended in tragedy with the
:04:59. > :05:03.discovery of his body. It is thought beat couple used a gas
:05:04. > :05:09.barbecue like this one in an attempt to warm up. They took it
:05:09. > :05:14.inside their tent to heat it, but unknown to them, it was emitting
:05:14. > :05:23.but deadly gas carbon monoxide. The next morning Vincent Clare was
:05:23. > :05:29.found dead in his sleeping bag. When I got here the ambulance were
:05:29. > :05:33.already here. Obviously the family were very shocked and so were we.
:05:33. > :05:39.We are saddened by the whole incident. These campers say many

:06:12. > :06:14.man have been jailed for taking part in an horrific attack in
:06:14. > :06:17.Southampton that left a cyclist with severe head injuries and brain
:06:17. > :06:20.damage. David Baker was savagely beaten and will never fully recover
:06:20. > :06:24.from his injuries. The judge described the attack as cowardly
:06:24. > :06:27.and unprovoked. The sentences were handed down in the past hour and

:06:38. > :06:46.attack take place? This vicious attack took place on at Southampton
:06:46. > :06:50.central bridge last year. That gang involved -- the gang involved had
:06:50. > :06:59.been drinking and one of them was higher on crack cocaine. There was
:06:59. > :07:08.building works and pedestrians were funnelled into this walkway. David
:07:08. > :07:13.Baker was attacked, beaten about he's head -- beaten about his head
:07:13. > :07:16.severely. He suffered traumatic head injuries which work life
:07:16. > :07:22.threatening. He was treated in intensive care, but suffered brain
:07:22. > :07:27.damage. He can no longer cycle and needs help with everyday tasks. He
:07:27. > :07:34.can only walk outside with a crutch. And who were the people sentenced
:07:34. > :07:38.today? Two people were sentenced today at Southampton Crown Court.
:07:38. > :07:44.Stephanie Hill was sentenced to four years and will be on licence
:07:44. > :07:50.for seven years. She kicked David Baker in the head. The other
:07:50. > :07:54.accused, John Smith, was the main aggressor. He was given an
:07:54. > :08:00.indeterminate sentence for public protection and told he would not be
:08:00. > :08:07.considered for release until he had served at least four years in jail.
:08:07. > :08:13.He had David Baker's blood on him. Hampshire police get this reaction.
:08:13. > :08:18.The quality of his life a will be reduced as the damage is permanent.
:08:18. > :08:23.It has impacted on him and his family. Going back to the attack.
:08:23. > :08:26.It took place on the central bridge in June. David was cycling home
:08:26. > :08:36.when he came across this group of people and they were high on drink
:08:36. > :08:37.
:08:37. > :08:42.and drugs. That is correct. prosecution say a total of four
:08:42. > :08:48.people were involved. They say two of them were not prosecuted because
:08:48. > :08:52.of lack of evidence. Thank you.
:08:52. > :08:55.A driver has been jailed for more than six years over the death of
:08:55. > :08:57.his passenger in a car crash in Brighton. Jonathan Wenham, who's 40,
:08:57. > :09:00.pleaded guilty today to causing death by dangerous driving and
:09:00. > :09:03.making a false statement to obtain insurance. Nicholas Messenger, who
:09:03. > :09:11.was 28 and from London, was killed in the crash. Wenham's BMW hit a
:09:11. > :09:15.tree in Grand Parade in January. He was over the drink drive limit.
:09:15. > :09:18.This is Gabi Lewis. She's been housebound for two-and-a-half years
:09:18. > :09:21.due to ME. You might know it as Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, or one of
:09:21. > :09:24.the many other names the illness has been called over the years.
:09:24. > :09:28.Whatever name it goes by, ME has often attracted controversy over
:09:28. > :09:31.whether it's a medical or a psychological condition. Gabi is in
:09:31. > :09:41.no doubts she suffers from a medical problem and is launching a
:09:41. > :09:46.
:09:46. > :09:50.charity to raise funds to conduct more research into the illness.
:09:50. > :09:55.Gabi Lewis cannot do the things that most of us take for granted.
:09:55. > :10:01.In it takes me about an hour were to get out of bed. When I wake up,
:10:01. > :10:08.my body is rigid. The pain is burning and ripping it right
:10:08. > :10:18.through my body. It is hard because the slightest movement sets of my
:10:18. > :10:18.
:10:18. > :10:23.blood pressure problems. Life has not always been like this. She used
:10:23. > :10:28.to have a successful job in London and a busy social life. It has been
:10:28. > :10:32.a nightmare. The hardest thing I have had to do is say goodbye to my
:10:32. > :10:36.friends because I cannot interact with them like this. You have to
:10:36. > :10:46.say goodbye to your of life and embrace your new one, which is
:10:46. > :10:51.really, really tough. The main symptom of ME is disabling
:10:51. > :10:58.tightness. It can affect any age group, but is more common in people
:10:58. > :11:03.in their forties and fifties. Women are more likely to develop the
:11:03. > :11:11.condition. Other sentence up memory problems, headaches, joint problems
:11:11. > :11:18.and sensitivity to noise and law. It is not a psychological condition,
:11:18. > :11:23.but it can be triggered by a virus. If you are sick for a long period
:11:23. > :11:28.of time and you are unwell, it is understandable that some people get
:11:28. > :11:33.anxious or fed-up. But it is not primarily a psychological decision.
:11:33. > :11:38.Gabi Lewis is hoping that by launching her charity, more people
:11:38. > :11:45.will understand her condition and the cure will hopefully be found.
:11:45. > :11:53.Still to come on the programme - yet another honour for one of the
:11:53. > :11:56.well's gates -- world's great guitarists.
:11:56. > :11:59.It's cost more than �4 million and now one of Southampton's most
:11:59. > :12:01.important historic buildings is about to re-open to the public
:12:01. > :12:04.after extensive renovations. The 15th century Tudor House has been
:12:04. > :12:13.closed for nearly ten years and it's restoration has uncovered some
:12:13. > :12:19.previously hidden secrets. Fancy seeing some historic grafitti?
:12:19. > :12:23.It is one of the mess familiar buildings in the City -
:12:23. > :12:29.Southampton's Tudor House, known by generations. 500 years ago when
:12:29. > :12:32.this house was being built, the first ships were reaching America.
:12:32. > :12:38.Shakespeare was a light and the first books were being printed. It
:12:38. > :12:47.was the time of invention and exploration and great activity, not
:12:47. > :12:51.least here than Southampton. The staff -- here in Southampton. The
:12:51. > :12:56.building deteriorated and had to be closed down. In the last decade a
:12:56. > :13:04.lot has been done to put it bright and in the process some hidden
:13:04. > :13:08.treasures had been discovered. have discovered graffiti on this
:13:08. > :13:18.war which shows interesting caricatures of people, animals,
:13:18. > :13:22.ships. The man who built all this, John Dawtry, also provided the
:13:22. > :13:28.timber for the Mary Rose. In it is interesting that some of the timber
:13:28. > :13:35.here is the same as those used to build the Mary Rose. We wonder if
:13:35. > :13:40.he had some extra ones which fell off the back of a cart! Now the
:13:40. > :13:44.garden has been restored as well. It is an iconic feature of
:13:44. > :13:48.Southampton and it has been sad whilst it has been closed because a
:13:48. > :13:53.whole generation of schoolchildren have not been able to visit it. But
:13:53. > :13:57.we hope that now we are going to reopen, it will be a magnet for
:13:57. > :14:03.local people and visitors to the city. The building will be open to
:14:03. > :14:06.the public again a week tomorrow. With a career spanning almost 50
:14:06. > :14:09.years, and collaborations with the likes of Mick Jagger, Kate Bush and
:14:09. > :14:13.Stevie Wonder, Jeff Beck's life story reads like a Who's Who of
:14:13. > :14:17.music superstardom. He's been inducted into the Rock and Roll
:14:17. > :14:20.Hall of Fame twice and has received six Grammy Awards. And, as Claudia
:14:20. > :14:30.Sermbezis reports, he can add to that list an honorary degree from
:14:30. > :14:42.
:14:42. > :14:49.He has been described as one of the greatest guitarists of all time.
:14:49. > :14:59.Geoff Beck uses his fingers when he is playing to create depth and soul.
:14:59. > :15:02.
:15:02. > :15:08.I used to keep dropping the plectrum and I got so embarrassed.
:15:08. > :15:16.I can use my nails instead. It is a more personal style.
:15:16. > :15:23.performances have won him six Grammy us, including for his own
:15:23. > :15:30.interpretation of a famous Beatles track. I am totally blown away. It
:15:30. > :15:35.is so bizarre. You get all that recognition in Los Angeles and all
:15:35. > :15:40.over the world and not in my home town. It is nice to have that,
:15:40. > :15:50.especially coming from Sussex, which is where I live. Geoff Beck
:15:50. > :15:51.
:15:51. > :15:56.was nominated by it Bruce Dickinson from the Institute of modern music.
:15:56. > :16:03.We had this amazing opportunity to get him into the college. He spoke
:16:03. > :16:07.to the students about his 40 year career, but the magic thing was he
:16:07. > :16:15.played his guitar and some of the students got up and everyone had a
:16:15. > :16:20.jam. He was incredible. One student described it as having got in the
:16:20. > :16:30.room. For the Sussex students it was a once-in-a-lifetime
:16:30. > :16:32.
:16:32. > :16:36.opportunity to jam with the man known as the guitarists guitarist.
:16:36. > :16:41.I am not sure what you are planning to do this weekend, but thousands
:16:41. > :16:45.of people will be making their way to Blenheim Palace because of this
:16:45. > :16:50.weekend the Game Fair is taking place. It is a huge Countryside
:16:50. > :17:00.event. We have sent out will report to bear to look around. I have to
:17:00. > :17:06.say, that is a wonderful backdrop. Isn't it? It is so beautiful, it is
:17:07. > :17:12.associated with tranquillity, but it has been buzzing with excitement
:17:13. > :17:19.because of the game fair. Over three days, 140,000 people will be
:17:19. > :17:24.attending it and having a taste of country life and. I had been having
:17:24. > :17:33.a go at different things, but you think someone like me would suit
:17:33. > :17:42.country life? Let us have a look at how I got on today. We are teaching
:17:42. > :17:50.people to fly cast. We are not using hooks. Before we go on with
:17:50. > :17:56.the casting, I am going to ask you to wear a hat and a pair of glasses.
:17:56. > :18:04.It is not that easy. Your back cast was really good. I went back a
:18:04. > :18:10.little bit too much there. When it is done well, it looks graceful and
:18:10. > :18:15.you get to spend time in beautiful environments, like here. We are
:18:15. > :18:22.doing something that is slow and meditative. I just had a lesson for
:18:22. > :18:32.the fun of it and so I could get better. Did you learn anything new?
:18:32. > :18:41.
:18:41. > :18:51.Yes. I learnt about the three. Grip. -- 3 point grip. A in and shoot at.
:18:51. > :19:01.That was a good shot. -- Ama and Shute Shelve. I brought my Doc with
:19:01. > :19:03.
:19:03. > :19:13.me and he is a bit uncontrollable. -- dog. There is some want back and
:19:13. > :19:23.help me with his behaviour. You are looking for the basics. We are
:19:23. > :19:26.
:19:26. > :19:32.going to lose him. Maximus, come back here! This is the issue. Sit.
:19:33. > :19:37.Sit. As you can see, I finally got
:19:37. > :19:47.Maximus to sit, but I do not know for how long. I will be back with
:19:47. > :19:55.
:19:55. > :19:57.the weather later in the programme. Thank you. Over to the sport.
:19:57. > :20:00.Southampton have beaten off competition from a host of other
:20:00. > :20:03.European clubs to sign Belgian winger Steve De Ridder. The 24-
:20:03. > :20:05.year-old has been playing in the top division of Dutch football.
:20:05. > :20:08.He's signed a three-year contract after being signed for what's
:20:08. > :20:10.described as a significant undisclosed fee. But Saints boss
:20:10. > :20:13.Nigel Adkins denied he's been brought in to replace �10 million
:20:13. > :20:16.rated Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain. He's been repeatedly linked with Arsenal
:20:16. > :20:25.and incurred his manager's wrath this week after being quoted saying
:20:25. > :20:29.he'd like to leave in a tabloid newspaper. Everyone said before we
:20:29. > :20:35.even preceded training that it had been a done deal. But he is still
:20:35. > :20:44.here, he has trained hard and he is being respectful of his team-mate.
:20:44. > :20:50.He had a smile on his face today. We have to look after him.

:21:34. > :21:38.One of the ways cricket tries to attract young players while they're
:21:38. > :21:41.still at school is through Kwik Cricket and the Year 6 girls at The
:21:41. > :21:44.Vale First and Middle school at Findon in West Sussex have just
:21:44. > :21:46.been crowned National Kwik Cricket Champions. They came out on top of

:21:58. > :22:01.being hit by another vessel in the Round the Island Race. But after
:22:01. > :22:04.all the years she lay forgotten and rotting,it was never likely to be
:22:04. > :22:07.more than a minor setback for Gipsy Moth IV. Today, plans to preserve
:22:07. > :22:09.Sir Francis Chichester's iconic yacht as a working national
:22:09. > :22:19.maritime monument were announced. And as Richard Westcott reports,
:22:19. > :22:23.she's already helping disadvantaged youngsters.
:22:23. > :22:31.For decades she sat on display and rotting in Greenwich. Now Gipsy
:22:31. > :22:37.Moth IV is back where she belongs. She is not breaking records any
:22:37. > :22:44.more, but she is inspiring young people. It has really improve my
:22:44. > :22:51.confidence. Before I wouldn't do anything on a boat. Now I am
:22:51. > :22:56.steering it and telling everyone what to do. BBC programmes will be
:22:56. > :23:02.giving coverage of the return of Sir Francis Chichester of... It is
:23:02. > :23:06.a story of eccentric British behaviour. Aged 65, Sir Francis
:23:06. > :23:15.Chichester became the fastest sailor to circle the globe in a
:23:16. > :23:21.small boat. Gipsy Moth IV combines state of the art design and a green
:23:22. > :23:25.he took to keep them warm. It is amazing how many young people know
:23:25. > :23:35.about the boat. It helps to inspire them to think about what it is
:23:35. > :23:36.
:23:36. > :23:41.possible for one person to do and also it will inspire them to push
:23:41. > :23:46.themselves forward. It has helped me with my future. I will be
:23:46. > :23:52.working here next year. You might have noticed it's got a master
:23:52. > :23:59.missing, thanks to a racing accident. It will soon be prepared.
:23:59. > :24:06.An old icon given a new lease of life.
:24:06. > :24:10.Let us go back to Blenheim Palace. The weather has been gorgeous up
:24:10. > :24:15.until now, but I am assuming the umbrella is up because it is
:24:15. > :24:19.raining. Yes, but it has been a lovely day.
:24:19. > :24:29.This is not the only thing happening across our region. Let us

:25:23. > :25:27.have a look at what they is to do Well, we have had a lovely day here
:25:27. > :25:32.in the sunshine, but things have suddenly changed. Let us have a
