:00:07. > :00:12.Hello, I'm Sally Taylor. Welcome to South Today.
:00:12. > :00:19.In tonight's programme: Family and friends say farewell to Robert -
:00:19. > :00:25.the funeral of the teenager stabbed to death while on holiday in Greece.
:00:25. > :00:28.One comes to death - - comes to terms with the death of somebody
:00:28. > :00:34.over, but this is very hard. �9,000 stolen from this man, but
:00:34. > :00:41.the robber is ordered to pay back just �1.
:00:41. > :00:43.I was shocked. I thought to myself, what is happening here? �1!
:00:43. > :00:46.Too close for comfort - Portland Coastguard warn travellers to move
:00:46. > :00:49.away. Worth half a million, but not for
:00:49. > :00:59.sale- we hear the story behind the paintings inspired by the rock
:00:59. > :01:05.
:01:06. > :01:08."A courageous and determined lad who everyone respected" - just one
:01:08. > :01:12.of the tributes paid to Hampshire teenager Robert Sebbage, who was
:01:12. > :01:19.stabbed to death on the Greek Island of Zante last month. The 18-
:01:19. > :01:22.year-old had been on holiday with a group of friends. His funeral took
:01:22. > :01:27.place in Basingstoke near to his home town of Tadley this lunchtime.
:01:27. > :01:32.Rachael Canter was there. Again a great sense of humour, a
:01:32. > :01:36.cheeky smile and a dedicated Reading's supporters. Robert had
:01:36. > :01:40.gone to the game with his brothers and today they had carried his
:01:40. > :01:44.coffin. One month ago he had been preparing to go on his first
:01:44. > :01:49.holiday without his parents. He travelled to Greece with four of
:01:49. > :01:54.his friends. The fight could tell you some of the memories, I would
:01:54. > :01:59.be talking for far too long. The number of times he turned a bad
:01:59. > :02:03.time into a good time, was unaccountable. His personality is
:02:04. > :02:08.irreplaceable. I feel honoured that I was part of his life and will
:02:08. > :02:14.forever Love the fact that would ever me during he could always put
:02:14. > :02:20.you in a better one. He will always be my best friends. He was my
:02:20. > :02:25.brother, Anne's the nicest guy you could ever meet. Robert really
:02:25. > :02:28.enjoyed music and he went on with his mates to the Isle of Wight
:02:28. > :02:33.festival this year and had a great time despite awful weather,
:02:34. > :02:37.returning home dirty and bedraggled. He had to change in the garage
:02:37. > :02:41.before mum would even let him in the house.
:02:41. > :02:48.Robert had battled with the serious bowel condition throughout his life,
:02:48. > :02:54.but his family say it never let him stop them. Able to mask off with
:02:54. > :02:58.David Beckham. Thousands of people have joined the campaign on
:02:58. > :03:02.Facebook asking for Reading to remember him with the minutes
:03:02. > :03:07.applause on Saturday. His Season Ticket had arrived in the post the
:03:07. > :03:12.day before he was killed. At 21- year-old taxi driver has been
:03:12. > :03:17.charged with his murder. A second taxi driver, 25, has been charged
:03:17. > :03:26.with complicity to commit murder. For family and friends, the focus
:03:26. > :03:29.today was celebrating the short time he spent with them.
:03:29. > :03:31.A court has been hearing how a Surrey woman bludgeoned her
:03:31. > :03:35.pensioner boyfriend to death, buried him in her back garden and
:03:35. > :03:38.next day went to the theatre. The body of Bill Williamson, who was 81,
:03:38. > :03:44.was found trussed up in a deep grave at the Godalming home of Ann
:03:44. > :03:48.Browning, who was almost 30 years his junior. Within days of his
:03:48. > :03:58.killing, she began spending his money. Joe Campbell is outside the
:03:58. > :03:58.
:03:58. > :04:04.house where it happened. Give us the background to this case. This
:04:04. > :04:09.little bungalow became the centre of a - - the centre of the police
:04:10. > :04:16.murder investigation last year. Bill Williamson was a retired
:04:16. > :04:25.postman, said to be besotted by Ann Browning, who owned the house. Mr
:04:25. > :04:32.Williamson had put his house on the market and had sold it for a price
:04:32. > :04:39.which was seen to be up for a quick sale. He moved into this house, and
:04:40. > :04:45.that was the last time he was seen alive. Ann Browning has admitted
:04:45. > :04:51.the killing. What has the court now got to sit - - now got to decide
:04:51. > :04:56.if? Murder carries a mandatory life sentence, but life does not mean
:04:56. > :05:01.life. It means that you can be in prison for up to your life. The
:05:01. > :05:05.police say that the ball would normally happen in this situation
:05:05. > :05:13.would be that the murderer would get a sentence at 16 years before
:05:13. > :05:19.they would be considered for parole. In this case, when somebody has
:05:19. > :05:26.killed somebody to get at property for themselves, that would be 30
:05:26. > :05:33.years. What is her version of events? Ann Browning does not deny
:05:33. > :05:38.murder. She says that what she did do was lost her patience with him
:05:38. > :05:43.when he moved in. When she had a row, she hit him over their head
:05:43. > :05:45.before burying him in the garden in a moment of panic.
:05:45. > :05:48.Coastguards and lifeboat services were deployed yesterday evening
:05:48. > :05:51.after a couple got stuck in the mud at Emsworth Harbour in Hampshire.
:05:51. > :06:01.Specialist mud rescue teams and the Hayling Island lifeboat were
:06:01. > :06:07.
:06:08. > :06:11.involved. The couple were rescued in around an hour and were unharmed.
:06:11. > :06:13.A Dorset police officer has been sacked for his role in a domestic
:06:13. > :06:15.abuse investigation after forming an inappropriate relationship with
:06:16. > :06:18.the victim. The Polish woman had complained of threats from her
:06:18. > :06:20.partner, Pioter Zasada. Shortly afterwards he murdered her in
:06:20. > :06:23.Bournemouth home. Today a report by the Independent Police Complaints
:06:23. > :06:26.Commission criticised the officer and the force. Chrissy Sturt has
:06:26. > :06:29.been following this story and is with me now. Chrissy, how much did
:06:29. > :06:32.the police know about what was going on? Well, Kasha Ryba and
:06:32. > :06:35.Zasada were both Polish. They ended up living in Bournemouth and had a
:06:35. > :06:38.daughter together. By 2009 the relationship was in trouble and
:06:38. > :06:48.that on 1st October he's arrested for breaching the order and is
:06:48. > :06:55.
:06:55. > :07:00.taken to court. And non-molestation order was taken out against him,
:07:00. > :07:03.which means that he has to stay well away from her. He is arrested
:07:03. > :07:05.for breaching that order. The following day he killed her,
:07:05. > :07:09.stabbing her in front of their three-year-old daughter before
:07:09. > :07:11.throwing her off a balcony. So what did the IPCC find in their
:07:11. > :07:14.investigation? Well, two main things. Firstly, they uncovered the
:07:14. > :07:17.fact that a PC was involved in an "inappropriate relationship" with
:07:17. > :07:25.Kasha, despite the fact she was a, "vulnerable victim of domestic
:07:25. > :07:35.abuse". Now no-one will tell me what exactly this means, but PC
:07:35. > :07:43.
:07:43. > :07:48.Richard Allen has since been sacked. The I p p - - the IPCC said that
:07:48. > :07:52.the way of Dorset police handled this, simply was not up to scratch.
:07:52. > :08:02.Dorset police as saying that they have now updated their policies.
:08:02. > :08:05.
:08:05. > :08:15.The I p p - - the IPCC says also that none of these errors led - -
:08:15. > :08:17.
:08:17. > :08:20.People are trying to raise money for a disabled Portsmouth man who
:08:20. > :08:24.was robbed of his life savings. Micky Evans had �9000 stolen from
:08:24. > :08:27.him, but the man who took the money has been ordered to pay back just
:08:27. > :08:29.�1. Mark Sanders has been to meet Mr Evans.Secondly, they say the way
:08:29. > :08:32.Dorset Police handled Kasha's complaints wasn't good enough.
:08:32. > :08:35.Micky Evans is in very poor health, but this did not stop him being the
:08:35. > :08:40.target of this man, Paul Cox, and drug addict who rub - - rob the
:08:40. > :08:49.pensioner up nearly all the money he had. He took �9,000 to this
:08:49. > :08:54.thank, were he was going to put it in. Paul Cox saw him going in and
:08:54. > :08:59.followed him and took the money off him. You just think yourself, I
:08:59. > :09:03.could never happen to you, but it has happened. Paul Cox was
:09:03. > :09:08.sentenced to two years and nine months and ordered him to pay back
:09:08. > :09:18.�9,000, but because he had spent a doll, Paul Cox was ordered to pay
:09:18. > :09:19.
:09:19. > :09:24.Micky Adams just �1. Disgusted. I thought to myself, what is
:09:24. > :09:27.happening here? People have already donated money to help Mickey Evans
:09:27. > :09:34.and a police officer has been dealing with this case would like
:09:34. > :09:41.to raise more. He had �9,000 stolen from him. He was saving that for
:09:41. > :09:45.his family. The money will help bring his family to him. It is so
:09:45. > :09:55.put any money raised could help by a Mickey Evans a new mobility
:09:55. > :10:03.
:10:03. > :10:06.scooter and help a man who has been through so much already.
:10:06. > :10:08.A new library in Portsmouth's had to close less than a week after it
:10:08. > :10:11.opened because of a leak in the roof.
:10:11. > :10:14.The city council is currently trying to establish the cause of
:10:14. > :10:16.the leak, which started this morning. The library, which opened
:10:16. > :10:19.in Southsea's shopping centre last Friday has now re-opened. Still to
:10:19. > :10:23.come in this evening's South Today: The weather forecast with Alexis.
:10:23. > :10:28.Is there more rain to come? We certainly had some very
:10:28. > :10:38.significant rainfall, but find out if there is more to come later in
:10:38. > :10:42.the programme. People living in rural areas
:10:42. > :10:45.already know how hard it is to get on the housing ladder, often priced
:10:45. > :10:47.out of the communities they've grown up in. A report today by the
:10:47. > :10:49.Countryside Alliance questions whether measures to tackle the
:10:49. > :10:52.problem have worked. It's confirmed a big shortfall in affordable
:10:52. > :10:55.housing with only a fifth of the homes needed being built. Danielle
:10:55. > :10:57.Glavin reports.This refers mainly to the way they were carrying out
:10:57. > :10:59.the risk assessments. This is a rare development. This
:10:59. > :11:01.development was billed for locals. Horsham district is the local
:11:01. > :11:07.council and they scored above- average in the survey, but still
:11:07. > :11:10.need just under 100 affordable homes to hit their target. I don't
:11:10. > :11:16.teach you can ever say we're doing enough until the problem is solved
:11:16. > :11:26.and we are a long way from that. Having said that, a percentage of
:11:26. > :11:32.
:11:33. > :11:38.64 % is better than the rest of the Hundreds of low-cost homes are
:11:38. > :11:48.needed every year, but last year the council plan just 13, 3% of its
:11:48. > :11:51.
:11:51. > :11:55.own target and putting its bottom One estate agent says affordable
:11:55. > :12:04.homes are desperately needed. a sad fact that they often value
:12:04. > :12:08.houses where 25 up to 35-year-old just a living with their parents
:12:09. > :12:13.because they cannot afford to purchase and they don't want to
:12:13. > :12:18.rent. I suspect that that will remain the same for the foreseeable
:12:18. > :12:27.future. So the dream of owning a home in rural areas remains just a
:12:27. > :12:29.wish for many. A little earlier I spoke to Dylan
:12:29. > :12:32.Sharpe from the Countryside Alliance and asked him why there
:12:32. > :12:35.was such a shortfall.They weren't filling the forms in right and they
:12:35. > :12:39.weren't sharing the information with other agencies. There is quite
:12:39. > :12:43.a big shortfall. Why do you think that is? And number of reasons. The
:12:43. > :12:47.council so, out of pretty hard economic times and the money is
:12:47. > :12:53.just not there. The Housing builders are not so keen to give
:12:53. > :12:57.over certain parts of their developments to affordable housing.
:12:57. > :13:00.Then you have got to look at ourselves. I have been speaking to
:13:01. > :13:04.some councillors and they say they were ready to put in these
:13:04. > :13:08.developments but local residents organised the petition because they
:13:08. > :13:12.don't want affordable housing in their area. Is that what you were
:13:12. > :13:14.really come down to, the fact that they will have to be some sort of
:13:15. > :13:19.development in these green belts and people might have to accept
:13:19. > :13:24.that? Not necessarily the green belt. There are plenty of
:13:24. > :13:28.brownfield sites out there and one solution is to incentivise land
:13:28. > :13:32.owners to give more of their land to affordable housing. That is
:13:32. > :13:36.something the government can do that. Ultimately this comes down to
:13:36. > :13:41.local councils working with local residents. That way you can get a
:13:41. > :13:47.co-ordinated solution but fits with the area and the council. In many
:13:47. > :13:57.areas we have second home syndrome. In Purbeck, that is a problem there.
:13:57. > :13:59.
:13:59. > :14:06.Absolutely. That is a big problem. The people who have grown up in
:14:06. > :14:11.rural areas and are looking to start a family, looking to get on
:14:11. > :14:21.the housing ladder, it will not be possible. What happens? They move
:14:21. > :14:23.
:14:23. > :14:28.into urban areas and the rural areas become commuter belt.
:14:28. > :14:33.There are warnings denied that the Portman based helicopter will not
:14:34. > :14:38.be able to carry out missions because travellers has set up a
:14:38. > :14:42.base at the end of the runway. This is the busiest period for the
:14:42. > :14:49.helicopter. Teams of bailiffs have been serving
:14:49. > :14:53.the travellers with eviction notice - - eviction notices. They are
:14:53. > :14:58.quite approachable and they want to do it peacefully as well. They
:14:58. > :15:02.don't want to cause problems either. This is the busiest time of year
:15:02. > :15:06.for the helicopter. Its main role is rescues at sea but it can be
:15:06. > :15:14.called to a range of emergencies like car crashes and even mountain
:15:14. > :15:18.rescue. It is high holiday season and thousands are visiting Dorset.
:15:18. > :15:24.Some are concerned about the wreck - - the threat to their helicopter
:15:24. > :15:29.flying. We have three kids and were on the beach yesterday. If anything
:15:29. > :15:34.was to happen they would be up the spout. If you get in trouble, you
:15:34. > :15:44.need rescuing. It is very inconsiderate of people pitching
:15:44. > :15:49.their caravans there. If somebody is struggling and the sea - - in
:15:49. > :15:55.this sea, I would be looking for help. One traveller did talk to me.
:15:55. > :16:03.We are not stopping anything. The helicopter took up any time they
:16:03. > :16:07.want to. We are out of the way. Council officials have visited the
:16:07. > :16:11.site and are trying to find an alternative location for the
:16:11. > :16:14.travellers. The bailiffs tell me there will be adopting a softly-
:16:15. > :16:18.softly approach, giving the travellers plenty of time to move
:16:18. > :16:28.on, but they also said to do you expect the site to be cured by
:16:28. > :16:34.
:16:34. > :16:37.tomorrow. - - cleared by tomorrow. Organisers have dismissed reports
:16:37. > :16:39.they're thinking of changing the courses for next summer's Olympic
:16:40. > :16:42.Regatta in Dorset. The Pre-Olympic Test Event is getting underway off
:16:42. > :16:45.Weymouth and Portland this week. They are trialling the five race
:16:45. > :16:48.zones which will be used next summer. The area close to Nothe
:16:48. > :16:51.Gardens will stage the crucial medal races in all of the classes,
:16:51. > :17:01.giving close-up views to paying spectators. And officials say that
:17:01. > :17:07.
:17:07. > :17:13.plan isn't going to change. Ceiling is trying to get closer to
:17:13. > :17:18.expect - - closer to spectators. A Olympic regatta bosses must dream
:17:18. > :17:24.of excitement like this. Up until now the sport has been miles out to
:17:24. > :17:29.sea. If it is going to continue to grow, then we have to provide
:17:29. > :17:35.courses closer to the shoreline. This is the cue from the ticketed
:17:35. > :17:40.area were temporary stands are expected to generate �250,000 daily.
:17:40. > :17:46.The closest racing at the moment is over in Portland Harbour, which it
:17:46. > :17:50.is almost impossible to see with the naked eye. Even when the racers
:17:50. > :17:55.will be held here, the chances are to get the best possible view you
:17:55. > :18:01.might need a pair of these, despite the big screens. The sailors will
:18:01. > :18:07.have to deal with the conditions there given. Often the harbour is
:18:07. > :18:13.windier because it funnels between Portland and the mainland. For a
:18:13. > :18:18.prospective of a sailor, it'll be a tricky race. The locations of the
:18:18. > :18:24.courses have been settled. It is a bit like watching cricket in the
:18:24. > :18:28.rain, I guess. Some days it is trickier than others. The
:18:28. > :18:33.relationship with the spectators is set up so we can cope with some of
:18:33. > :18:37.those bigger variables. Be a limping boat will have cameras on
:18:37. > :18:41.board and there will be big screens and commentary. The View From Land
:18:41. > :18:47.by be prompting debate, but organisers are confident that drum
:18:47. > :18:50.will be guaranteed. Meanwhile, there is also an Olympic
:18:50. > :18:52.test event at Dorney Lake where the 2012 rowing competition will take
:18:52. > :18:54.place. The World Junior Championships are underway at the
:18:54. > :18:58.venue on the Berkshire and Buckinghamshire border. Rowing, of
:18:58. > :19:04.course, is another event in which Britain has a great record and high
:19:04. > :19:14.hopes of medal success. Sussex have been beaten in their
:19:14. > :19:27.
:19:27. > :19:30.latest championship match against The new football league season is
:19:30. > :19:32.now less than 48 hours away. We've already assessed the chances of
:19:32. > :19:35.Crawley, Aldershot, Bournemouth and Brighton this week. Tomorrow it's
:19:35. > :19:37.Southampton and Portsmouth. So tonight, by a process of
:19:37. > :19:47.elimination, it must be Reading and, as Tony Husband explains, last
:19:47. > :20:25.
:20:25. > :20:29.season promised to be a blockbuster. Wembley fans can repay those
:20:29. > :20:34.memories round and round, but the result will be the same. The
:20:34. > :20:42.question is, that - - can have the royals scaled those heights again,
:20:42. > :20:45.but go one step better? Reading are keeping faith with most of the side
:20:45. > :20:52.that got them to Wembley, but balancing the books is a priority
:20:52. > :21:00.at the club recognised for its stability. Matt Mills has been sold.
:21:00. > :21:06.The royals could lose Shane Long, their top scorer and so the player
:21:06. > :21:14.that the fans and the manager would miss. He is a Premiership player,
:21:14. > :21:22.in my opinion. If you get that opportunity and they do the deal at
:21:22. > :21:31.the right level, it could happen. He remains our role for now, but of
:21:31. > :21:37.the new recruits, there is a lot of promise. The manager has grown into
:21:37. > :21:42.his role. I think I have gone through a lot as far as the back
:21:42. > :21:50.end of last season in particular. I can live with that, no problem. We
:21:50. > :22:00.all trust each other and that is how be survived. - - how you we
:22:00. > :22:00.
:22:00. > :22:07.Are you excited yet? That is still painful to watch,
:22:07. > :22:12.though. It a classic album from the heyday
:22:12. > :22:22.of rock. Tommy was released by The Who in 1969 and went on to become a
:22:22. > :22:30.
:22:30. > :22:34.Ken Russell film. Part of the film It was also to inspire a series of
:22:34. > :22:36.paintings, commissioned by The Who for a book about the band. They now
:22:36. > :22:45.belong to Paul Kelly from Southampton, who told me earlier
:22:45. > :22:50.about how they ended up in his possession.
:22:50. > :23:00.I inherited the art work from the Art Trust John Davies, who passed
:23:00. > :23:01.
:23:01. > :23:06.away and 2006. You obviously knew him. We were very close. We were a
:23:06. > :23:12.member of the living History Society and be dressed up as Roman
