Hello, I'm Sally Taylor. Welcome to South Today. In tonight's | :00:04. | :00:06. | |
programme: Important research into childhood | :00:06. | :00:14. | |
allergies is under threat as not enough volunteers come forward. | :00:14. | :00:18. | |
No parent would want an untested drug given to their child. | :00:18. | :00:22. | |
Can the South lead the way out of the economic slump? We hear from | :00:22. | :00:24. | |
the Shadow Chancellor. Saying farewell at last to the | :00:24. | :00:32. | |
servicemen who died as D-Day landing craft sank in the Solent. | :00:32. | :00:40. | |
And the daunting task of finishing one of Mozart's great works. | :00:40. | :00:45. | |
I decided that I would continue very much as if I were picking up | :00:45. | :00:53. | |
the pen and continuing in 7091, in the same sort of style. -- said in | :00:53. | :01:00. | |
A medical trial which could potentially help millions of | :01:00. | :01:04. | |
children with allergies may have to close. The study in Southampton is | :01:04. | :01:09. | |
under threat not from lack of funds, but a lack of volunteers. So far, | :01:09. | :01:14. | |
only 31 children are involved. They need almost three times that many. | :01:14. | :01:17. | |
The youngsters are given an extract of dust mites to see if it helps | :01:17. | :01:21. | |
prevent them developing asthma, eczema, and other allergies. Our | :01:21. | :01:24. | |
health correspondent David Fenton has been assessing the issue and is | :01:24. | :01:31. | |
here to tell us more. This trial is looking at a problem | :01:32. | :01:36. | |
that affects many, many children. Sometimes almost from the moment | :01:36. | :01:40. | |
they are born. That problem is allergies. About one in four people | :01:40. | :01:45. | |
have an allergy and about half of those are children. Dust mites that | :01:45. | :01:48. | |
we all breathed in can trigger many of the most common allergic | :01:48. | :01:53. | |
reactions, like asthma. This today, the first of its kind in Europe, | :01:53. | :01:57. | |
hopes to stop those allergies from developing. | :01:58. | :02:03. | |
Selina is about to take a dose of dust mites. It is a special extract | :02:03. | :02:08. | |
in a sugary solution. She will take this twice a day for the next year. | :02:08. | :02:13. | |
I have got lots of friends that had eczema when they were children and | :02:13. | :02:17. | |
I thought it was a good idea if we could find a cure for or prevention | :02:17. | :02:23. | |
to stop it. Tiny drops of milk, grass and peanut solution are put | :02:23. | :02:27. | |
on to her skin. If she reacts, there will be a red mark. There is | :02:27. | :02:34. | |
not. We hope the immune system will actually recognise the house dust | :02:34. | :02:40. | |
mite as not being harmful. If they become tolerant to the dust mite, | :02:40. | :02:46. | |
it will prevent them from having hay fever or asthma, for example. | :02:46. | :02:50. | |
Everyone breathes in dust mites, they are a major cause of allergic | :02:50. | :02:53. | |
reactions, but many parents are reluctant to take part in medical | :02:53. | :02:58. | |
trials. I think it is trying something new and children, it is | :02:58. | :03:02. | |
not that good. We refused it because we did not want experiments | :03:02. | :03:07. | |
on our child. If it helps one person it has to be a good thing so | :03:07. | :03:12. | |
I don't see a problem. Selfishly, people are busy and think it will | :03:12. | :03:15. | |
be time consuming with small children, when time, you feel you | :03:15. | :03:19. | |
are busy anyway. The results of this allergy study are still being | :03:19. | :03:24. | |
collected, but it could close without more volunteers. It is a | :03:24. | :03:29. | |
common problem for research trials. Without really conducting the | :03:29. | :03:31. | |
studies properly so that we can understand the deceit and the new | :03:32. | :03:36. | |
medicines in children, we cannot, as doctors, use those medicines | :03:36. | :03:40. | |
because we might cause more harm. No parent would want an untested | :03:40. | :03:46. | |
drug given to a child. Every year, 8,000 children like Selina take | :03:46. | :03:55. | |
part in clinical trials, unpaid and often unnoticed. | :03:55. | :03:59. | |
I am joined by a doctor from the medicine for children research | :03:59. | :04:03. | |
network which supports clinical trials in children. Professionals | :04:03. | :04:08. | |
clearly want more trials on children. Persuading parents is | :04:08. | :04:12. | |
clearly difficult. It must be a conundrum for you, so how do you | :04:12. | :04:19. | |
solve it? When families come to us with a child who is unwell, many | :04:19. | :04:22. | |
families ask what new treatments are available, what research is | :04:23. | :04:29. | |
being done in the condition? Will the outlook be better for my child? | :04:29. | :04:33. | |
Although one its concerned to hear that families are reluctant to take | :04:34. | :04:38. | |
part in research, the evidence is that many families who encounter | :04:38. | :04:43. | |
doctors with sick children are then very keen to hear about research. | :04:43. | :04:47. | |
But it is a voluntary act to take part, there is no compulsion, and | :04:47. | :04:50. | |
each family needs to make an individual choice on the | :04:50. | :04:56. | |
information they are given and what is right for their child. Indeed. I | :04:56. | :05:01. | |
suppose if a trial cannot go ahead, what does it mean for the future of | :05:01. | :05:04. | |
medicine and treatments for children? It is important that | :05:04. | :05:10. | |
everyone recognises that, until very recently, we had no way of | :05:10. | :05:14. | |
improving medicines for children. Around half the medicines we use in | :05:14. | :05:19. | |
children are not tested to the same standards as adult medicines, but | :05:19. | :05:23. | |
with the development of a network and changes in legislation many new | :05:24. | :05:28. | |
agents are coming through, many new medicines are being tested in | :05:28. | :05:32. | |
children in really good facilities and with experienced, trained staff, | :05:32. | :05:37. | |
so unless we all contribute to the trials we will not be able to | :05:37. | :05:41. | |
improve health care for children as fast as we would all want it. | :05:41. | :05:45. | |
you so much for joining us this evening. | :05:45. | :05:49. | |
David, talking about the Southampton trial with the dust | :05:49. | :05:55. | |
mites, how realistic is it that the trial continues? They are going to | :05:55. | :05:59. | |
carry on with the 31 children already on it and I'm sure the | :05:59. | :06:02. | |
information will be useful. The problem is that it is not a large | :06:02. | :06:06. | |
enough number to be statistically valid, which is hugely important | :06:06. | :06:10. | |
when it comes to deciding, basically, does it work? Can they | :06:10. | :06:15. | |
get more funding to turn the research into treatment? The | :06:15. | :06:18. | |
interesting thing about this steady if it is not about a drug or | :06:19. | :06:22. | |
medicine, it is a preventative measure using something we all | :06:22. | :06:26. | |
breathed in any rate. Let's hope they can maybe get a few more | :06:26. | :06:31. | |
volunteers. If you are interested in being part of the trial all want | :06:31. | :06:40. | |
more information, please call this A speedway rider has appeared | :06:40. | :06:42. | |
before magistrates in Bournemouth charged with sexually assaulting a | :06:42. | :06:45. | |
teenage girl. Poole Pirates's Darcy Ward, who is 19, is accused of | :06:45. | :06:50. | |
assaulting the 17-year-old at a hotel in Poole in August. He was | :06:50. | :06:53. | |
bailed to appear at the town's Crown Court next week alongside a | :06:53. | :06:56. | |
17-year-old man, who cannot be named because of his age. He has | :06:56. | :06:58. | |
been charged with rape and three counts of sexual assault. | :06:58. | :07:01. | |
A Hampshire businessman has given a graphic account of how he found his | :07:01. | :07:05. | |
mother's body in her country cottage. Georgina Edmonds had been | :07:05. | :07:09. | |
stabbed and then struck with a rolling pin. Her son Harry was | :07:09. | :07:12. | |
giving evidence on the second day of the trial of Matthew Hamlen, | :07:12. | :07:15. | |
from Bishopstoke, who denies murdering Mrs Edmonds. You may find | :07:15. | :07:22. | |
some of the details in Steve Humphrey's report upsetting. | :07:22. | :07:26. | |
Just before he started giving evidence, Harry Edmonds turned | :07:26. | :07:29. | |
towards the dock and looked at Matthew Hamlen, the man accused of | :07:29. | :07:35. | |
murdering his mother. Georgina Edmonds, who was 77, was repeatedly | :07:35. | :07:39. | |
stabbed before being struck with a marble rolling pin. She lived at | :07:39. | :07:44. | |
this cottage in the grounds of Kingfisher Lodge, where her son | :07:44. | :07:48. | |
legs. Harry Edmonds described coming home on a dark Friday | :07:48. | :07:52. | |
evening. After seeing no lights on, he called his mother on the | :07:52. | :07:55. | |
telephone. And with the doors locked and no response, he climbed | :07:55. | :08:00. | |
through a window and found his mother's body in the kitchen. Two | :08:00. | :08:04. | |
estate workers arrived after being called by Mr Edmonds. Mr Edmonds | :08:04. | :08:09. | |
told the jury his mother was lying on the ground, flat on her face. He | :08:09. | :08:13. | |
said there was evidence she had received a blow to the head. He | :08:14. | :08:17. | |
told the emergency services, I think there has been a murder. He | :08:17. | :08:23. | |
also told the jury, you see so many crime dramas, you know in these | :08:23. | :08:28. | |
circumstances not to touch anything. Earlier, he described his mother as | :08:28. | :08:32. | |
a lively character who still lived an active life despite several hip | :08:32. | :08:37. | |
replacement operations. Matthew Hamlen, a 33-year-old Ehlich | :08:37. | :08:40. | |
treasurer, denies murdering Georgina Edmonds and the trial | :08:40. | :08:45. | |
continues. -- a 33-year-old and attrition. | :08:45. | :08:48. | |
Security is to be improved at Butlin's in Bognor Regis following | :08:48. | :08:51. | |
a fight at an adult weekend that ended with 12 arrests on suspicion | :08:51. | :08:54. | |
of GBH and violent disorder. Six staff were taken to hospital | :08:54. | :08:57. | |
following the incident at the Swinging 60s night earlier this | :08:57. | :09:00. | |
month. The resort will make closer scrutiny of block bookings, review | :09:00. | :09:03. | |
CCTV cameras, and have more safety staff on duty. | :09:03. | :09:06. | |
Southampton General Hospital's new helipad opened this morning. And | :09:06. | :09:09. | |
within half an hour of entering service, it was already in action, | :09:09. | :09:12. | |
receiving a patient from the Isle of Wight. It has cost �1 million to | :09:12. | :09:19. | |
build, but doctors say it will make a huge difference to patients. | :09:19. | :09:25. | |
Previously, patients have had to land and be transferred by land | :09:25. | :09:31. | |
ambulance. Landing here means they are within two minutes of the | :09:31. | :09:33. | |
emergency department and that saving of time will save lives and | :09:33. | :09:38. | |
improve outcomes. I think it is going to be amazing, because it is | :09:38. | :09:42. | |
going to cut down the time it takes to get into hospital, and it will | :09:42. | :09:46. | |
be saving lives every day. You don't get more important than that, | :09:46. | :09:52. | |
do you? Stay with us, we are looking ahead | :09:52. | :09:57. | |
to Children In Need. How did Team Scoop and Team Wafer get on in the | :09:57. | :10:05. | |
Pudsey challenge? Gatwick airport's extended and | :10:06. | :10:07. | |
modernised North Terminal officially opened today in | :10:07. | :10:10. | |
anticipation of a rise in passenger numbers and business growth in the | :10:10. | :10:14. | |
South East. The work to improve facilities has cost �73 million. It | :10:14. | :10:17. | |
is part of a half billion pound investment programme. So what do | :10:17. | :10:24. | |
passengers make of the new look? A LCT 427 improvement to what it | :10:24. | :10:32. | |
was before. I think it is money well spent -- a huge improvement. | :10:32. | :10:36. | |
It was fairly dilapidated, but it looks very good now. There seems to | :10:36. | :10:40. | |
be a lot more space, not as crowded as it was before. | :10:40. | :10:43. | |
The official opening of the modernised North Terminal was | :10:43. | :10:45. | |
performed by former Conservative Chancellor and Prime Minister Sir | :10:45. | :10:47. | |
John Major. It was during his premiership that the British | :10:47. | :10:52. | |
economy weathered the recession of the early 1990s. Today, he said the | :10:52. | :10:54. | |
hundreds of millions of pounds being invested in the North | :10:54. | :10:57. | |
Terminal is contributing to economic growth in the region and | :10:57. | :11:07. | |
:11:07. | :11:07. | ||
across the United Kingdom. Here at Gatwick, they are | :11:07. | :11:11. | |
fashioning a gateway to the United Kingdom that will help Britain | :11:11. | :11:15. | |
extend its reach far around the world and far into the future. | :11:15. | :11:18. | |
So just how are we positioned across the South when it comes to | :11:18. | :11:21. | |
pushing the country forwards towards growth? Within the last | :11:21. | :11:23. | |
hour, our political editor Peter Henley has been exploring that | :11:23. | :11:29. | |
question with the Shadow Chancellor, Ed Balls. | :11:29. | :11:34. | |
He has been visiting Southampton. Is there anything about the word | :11:34. | :11:38. | |
austerity that you like? deficit has got to come down, that | :11:38. | :11:43. | |
means tough decisions for families, businesses, we will see taxes go up | :11:43. | :11:47. | |
and have to tighten public spending. But austerity meaning cut faster | :11:47. | :11:52. | |
and faster, it is not working. If unemployment goes up, confidence | :11:52. | :11:57. | |
falls, and you end up with a higher borrowing than planned. That is | :11:57. | :12:01. | |
what George Osborne is discovering, so a more balanced approach than | :12:01. | :12:06. | |
just simple plain austerity, which does not were. You are suggesting a | :12:06. | :12:10. | |
tax break in the South East that would mean less money for the | :12:10. | :12:14. | |
government? It would encourage a few businesses but frighten the | :12:14. | :12:18. | |
markets. Isn't confidence the most important thing? The most important | :12:18. | :12:23. | |
thing is more people in work, paying tax, rather than unemployed | :12:23. | :12:26. | |
and on benefits. In his constituency in Southampton there | :12:26. | :12:31. | |
has been a 133% rise in long-term youth unemployment since the | :12:31. | :12:36. | |
beginning of the year, so getting people to work will get the deficit | :12:36. | :12:40. | |
down and one idea is a National Insurance cut for every small firm | :12:40. | :12:44. | |
taking on new employees. George Osborne had a plan like that but it | :12:44. | :12:52. | |
excluded the south-east entirely from the tax break, that is madness. | :12:52. | :12:59. | |
The unemployment level was so low, 6.3%, and the help when you were in | :12:59. | :13:03. | |
government went to other regions. Unemployment is up, confidence is | :13:03. | :13:08. | |
down, if businesses in the south- east are not creating jobs, the | :13:08. | :13:12. | |
whole country suffers. You cannot rely on the south-east to be the | :13:12. | :13:15. | |
engine of growth, it needs to be supported, which means doing more. | :13:15. | :13:19. | |
Thank you very much. A memorial service has been held | :13:19. | :13:22. | |
for the servicemen who died when a World War II landing craft sank in | :13:22. | :13:25. | |
the Solent. Landing craft LCT 427 collided on its return to | :13:25. | :13:31. | |
Portsmouth from Normandy in June 1944. All 13 crew died. The | :13:31. | :13:33. | |
Southsea Sub-Aqua Club recently discovered the wreck and began a | :13:33. | :13:40. | |
search for relatives or comrades of the crew, as Mark Sanders explains. | :13:40. | :13:45. | |
At just 19, Margaret lost the man she was going to marry, one of 13 | :13:45. | :13:50. | |
men killed when their landing craft sank in Portsmouth harbour. Kenneth | :13:50. | :13:57. | |
was quite a religious person, a really frivolous man. He loved | :13:57. | :14:05. | |
dancing, which we boasted a lot. He was a lovely person, really lovely. | :14:05. | :14:09. | |
Magritte and others have lost someone dear today travelled to the | :14:09. | :14:15. | |
spot where LCT 427 sank. The craft was part of the D-Day armada and | :14:15. | :14:18. | |
successfully landed her cargo of tanks in Normandy and was returning | :14:18. | :14:23. | |
to Portsmouth when disaster struck. In the early hours of June 7th, | :14:23. | :14:28. | |
1944, just four miles from shore, she collided with a British | :14:28. | :14:34. | |
battleship. The landing craft was sliced in two. The wreck was | :14:34. | :14:37. | |
identified by Southsea Sub-Aqua Club, who organised the memorial | :14:37. | :14:41. | |
service at sea and traced the relatives of those who died. | :14:41. | :14:49. | |
never really expected to have such a fabulous response, and to finally | :14:49. | :14:54. | |
be here pain our last respects is just wonderful. Relatives laid | :14:54. | :14:59. | |
wreaths where LCT 427 went down. Gladys lost her brother. I was just | :14:59. | :15:07. | |
very sad, I just said goodbye to him and God bless. What was going | :15:07. | :15:17. | |
through your mind when you put the race on the water? -- the wreath. | :15:17. | :15:23. | |
Really sad, really sad. You think of all of those lives that were | :15:23. | :15:28. | |
lost. Today was an act of remembrance to ensure that the loss | :15:28. | :15:37. | |
of one landing craft crew was not forgotten in the sweep of history. | :15:37. | :15:41. | |
An important day for the relatives and comrades who waited so long to | :15:41. | :15:44. | |
pay their respects. More than 200 years after the | :15:44. | :15:46. | |
original piece was written, a composer from Southampton has | :15:46. | :15:50. | |
completed Mozart's Requiem. Michael Finnissy, Professor of Composition | :15:50. | :15:55. | |
at Southampton University, wrote the new parts in just six weeks. | :15:55. | :15:58. | |
Over the last couple of centuries, many attempts have been made to | :15:58. | :16:08. | |
:16:08. | :16:20. | ||
finish the piece. Sarah Holmes The opening to Mozart's Requiem, | :16:20. | :16:27. | |
and iconic piece of music. But one that Mozart never finished. Over | :16:27. | :16:31. | |
the last couple of centuries, many attempts have been made to finish | :16:31. | :16:36. | |
the piece, most imagining what Mozart would have done. But Michael | :16:36. | :16:40. | |
Finnissy decided to try something different. Supposing Mozart was | :16:40. | :16:46. | |
alive now and was looking back at himself in its 7091, what would he | :16:46. | :16:53. | |
have to take account of, musically, in a different musical period? It | :16:53. | :17:03. | |
:17:03. | :17:04. | ||
starts more-or-less in the style I wanted to make the relationship | :17:04. | :17:09. | |
with Mozart, so it would not have been much good grovelling at his | :17:09. | :17:13. | |
feet, that would not be terribly impressive, so I decided he was a | :17:13. | :17:18. | |
friend and we were going to talk about the writing of Requiems, how | :17:19. | :17:24. | |
music can affect people, how it can elevate the human spirit. The piece | :17:24. | :17:30. | |
will be premiered on Sunday at St Michael's Church in Southampton. | :17:30. | :17:36. | |
A daunting task to a finish that. The completed Requiem is on Sunday | :17:36. | :17:39. | |
at 7pm at St Michael's Church in Southampton. And it is online | :17:39. | :17:45. | |
bbc.co.uk/hampshire. Tony is here, starting with | :17:45. | :17:47. | |
football? The bank which is part-owned by one | :17:47. | :17:50. | |
of Portsmouth's main backers has gone into temporary administration. | :17:50. | :17:53. | |
Vladimir Antonov owns 68% of Bankas Snoras. An administrator has been | :17:53. | :17:56. | |
appointed to assess its financial position and look at restructuring, | :17:56. | :17:59. | |
amid reports that assets totalling around �247 million pounds may be | :17:59. | :18:05. | |
unaccounted for. Antonov is the Chairman and founder of Convers | :18:05. | :18:07. | |
Sports Initiatives, which owns Portsmouth. The club have made no | :18:07. | :18:09. | |
comment. Meanwhile, Portsmouth's new manager | :18:09. | :18:12. | |
has been reflecting on his first week in the role. Michael Appleton | :18:12. | :18:16. | |
leads Pompey in his opening game as a full-time manager on Saturday at | :18:16. | :18:19. | |
Watford. He has had a week to work with those players who have not | :18:20. | :18:23. | |
been away on international duty, and he is eager for the game to | :18:23. | :18:28. | |
come round. I am obviously desperately looking | :18:28. | :18:33. | |
forward to it, it is an opportunity for myself to have a feel for the | :18:33. | :18:37. | |
championship once again. I have spent a lot of time playing in the | :18:37. | :18:41. | |
championship, coaching in the championship, being an assistant to | :18:41. | :18:44. | |
people in that level, and there is a lot I know about the championship | :18:44. | :18:48. | |
and the players and hopefully I can give that advice and experience to | :18:48. | :18:51. | |
the players. Gosport sailor Alex Thomson may | :18:51. | :18:54. | |
have to settle for second place in the Transat race. Thomson and co- | :18:54. | :18:57. | |
skipper Guillarmo Altadill remain 128 miles behind the leaders in the | :18:57. | :18:59. | |
challenge, which started in northern France at the beginning of | :18:59. | :19:02. | |
the month and should arrive in Costa Rica tomorrow. Southampton's | :19:02. | :19:05. | |
Mike Golding is still at the back of the 9 boat class. | :19:05. | :19:07. | |
After five consecutive defeats to start the British basketball season, | :19:07. | :19:10. | |
the Guildford Heat are turning to some American talent They have | :19:10. | :19:13. | |
signed experienced point guard Drew Lasker. He has played for Plymouth | :19:13. | :19:18. | |
and Newcastle and averages over 15 points a game. Lasker should make | :19:18. | :19:28. | |
:19:28. | :19:28. | ||
his debut in a friendly on Sunday at Surrey Sports Park. | :19:28. | :19:32. | |
Saints and Brighton made on Saturday, amongst Children In Need, | :19:32. | :19:37. | |
we will preview that. It is Children In Need tomorrow night, | :19:37. | :19:41. | |
and as most of us are gearing up for a big fundraising night, some | :19:41. | :19:43. | |
race enthusiasts in Chandlers Ford are preparing for a 24-hour | :19:43. | :19:47. | |
marathon. And tonight they are on a practise run. Laura Trant is there. | :19:47. | :19:52. | |
It is all very exciting at the race centre in Chandlers Ford. Here is | :19:52. | :19:58. | |
Nathan, he has won four times before. What are your tips? A lot | :19:58. | :20:03. | |
of concentration, hardly any sleep, and a lot of luck. We had better | :20:03. | :20:09. | |
leave you to it. Let's talk to David, what is going on tomorrow? | :20:09. | :20:14. | |
We have the 24 hour race, starting at 1pm and going through until | :20:14. | :20:23. | |
Saturday at 1pm. We also have an auction, so everyone can join in. | :20:23. | :20:27. | |
We have gifts from Martin Brundle, lots of stuff, lots for people to | :20:28. | :20:35. | |
bid on. How much have you raised so far? It is the 50th, so far over | :20:35. | :20:42. | |
�35,000. Nasty was �8,000, we hope we can achieve that again -- it is | :20:42. | :20:47. | |
the 5th year, and last year was �8,000. Our very own Sarah Farmer | :20:47. | :20:53. | |
is here. How is it going? I have crashed several times, but I am | :20:53. | :20:57. | |
getting there, getting the hang of it. It is like the real thing, you | :20:57. | :21:00. | |
can feel the vibrations and when you come off the track, you know | :21:00. | :21:06. | |
about it! You can join a Sidon for a girls' night out tomorrow at the | :21:06. | :21:10. | |
National Motor Museum, and there will be a bit of a casting because | :21:10. | :21:18. | |
there will be a Formula One tyre Bob challenge as well. | :21:18. | :21:23. | |
She said all of the girls, but you are there tomorrow as well! | :21:23. | :21:27. | |
already know what they are doing, they are one step ahead! | :21:27. | :21:31. | |
It is day two of the Pudsey Challenge. We split eight of our | :21:31. | :21:34. | |
presenters and reporters into two teams and gave them a task, rather | :21:34. | :21:37. | |
in the style of The Apprentice. Selling and making ice cream for | :21:37. | :21:43. | |
Children In Need. It might seem an easy task, but there are some dirty | :21:43. | :21:46. | |
tricks taking place as the competition starts to hot up. | :21:47. | :21:55. | |
Two teams and one bear. To make and sell ice-cream. The rules are | :21:55. | :22:05. | |
:22:05. | :22:10. | ||
simple. Whichever team sows the Team Wafer Habana early appointment | :22:10. | :22:17. | |
with BBC Radio Solent. We have been busy making sticky toffee Pudsey. | :22:17. | :22:22. | |
Elsewhere... The ice-cream is there, we have to get it in here and then | :22:22. | :22:29. | |
hit the row. It is very expensive. Three pounds 50 for a tub of ice- | :22:29. | :22:35. | |
cream?! As least I have changed my top! Fresh plants, fresh socks! | :22:35. | :22:41. | |
Friendly rivalry... Can you help, please? This is really nice ice- | :22:41. | :22:51. | |
:22:51. | :22:54. | ||
cream. And dirty tricks. Theirs is bright yellow and looks disgusting. | :22:54. | :23:04. | |
:23:04. | :23:05. | ||
Look at that. Tom has got a mean, devious trick. If you would like to | :23:05. | :23:15. | |
:23:15. | :23:18. | ||
move your Karl Ley! With the roadblocks lifted, both teams are | :23:19. | :23:28. | |
:23:29. | :23:33. | ||
Team Wafer divide in two, with Sarah heading to Southampton and | :23:33. | :23:43. | |
:23:43. | :23:47. | ||
Tom going to Portsmouth. Pool stick together and set up shop at the | :23:47. | :23:52. | |
keys in Portsmouth. Do we have a phone number for the ice-cream | :23:52. | :24:02. | |
people? Are you worried about it Martin? I want to make sure! | :24:02. | :24:07. | |
The team leaders return from Portsmouth. With just one hour to | :24:07. | :24:17. | |
go, both teams made a final push. Alexis has come down to help. | :24:17. | :24:24. | |
metres up, your chance to eat high altitude ice-cream! I don't know | :24:24. | :24:27. | |
how you can stay so calm. Both teams must return to the boardroom | :24:27. | :24:34. | |
by a strict 4pm deadline. We have got to go. Why don't you start | :24:34. | :24:42. | |
selling and stop arguing? It feels like we shifted nearly all of our | :24:42. | :24:52. | |
:24:52. | :24:56. | ||
ice-cream. We won by a wafer! Tomorrow, all eight Apprentices | :24:56. | :25:00. | |
face Sally in the boardroom, but who will become Pudsey's | :25:00. | :25:04. | |
Apprentice? You are fired! | :25:04. | :25:09. | |
It was so exciting to do that! But it was not nice to be horrible to | :25:09. | :25:13. | |
them because they did so well, and I will tell you all about it | :25:13. | :25:16. | |
tomorrow. I hope she has finished crashing | :25:16. | :25:19. | |
her car, because Sarah Farmer has now got to get to grips with the | :25:19. | :25:23. | |
weather! Luckily the track was drying here | :25:23. | :25:28. | |
otherwise I would have spun off the road several more times! Today, we | :25:28. | :25:37. | |
We did have quite a bit of blue sky ahead, some cloud at times, but a | :25:37. | :25:42. | |
band of cloud moving into the West, which is trying to head into us | :25:42. | :25:46. | |
overnight. We start to see the cloud thickening from the north- | :25:46. | :25:50. | |
west through the course of this evening. I don't think it will | :25:50. | :25:54. | |
bring too much in the way of wet weather but it may be damp and | :25:54. | :26:00. | |
drizzly at times. Eastern parts perhaps seeing some mist, which | :26:00. | :26:04. | |
could be with us into tomorrow morning. The start of tomorrow | :26:04. | :26:10. | |
looks like it will be damned in the West, but just first thing. We may | :26:10. | :26:14. | |
see some mist to the far east of the region, but as the day | :26:14. | :26:17. | |
progresses, some decent writer breaks developing and we should see | :26:17. | :26:22. | |
some more sunshine, probably more cloud than we saw today, but some | :26:22. | :26:27. | |
nice sunny spells. The breeze is a little bit of a feature, but not | :26:27. | :26:33. | |
too windy. Another mild day for November for Children In Need day. | :26:33. | :26:37. | |
Children In Need night, it will stay predominantly dry once again, | :26:37. | :26:41. | |
thickening cloud through the course of the night, not ruling out the | :26:41. | :26:45. | |
chance of some mist and fog again, but we should see temperatures in | :26:45. | :26:50. | |
double figures for most parts, so not doing too badly for the weekend. | :26:50. | :26:56. | |
More brightness, sunny intervals through the day on Saturday, | :26:56. | :27:01. | |
possibly a touch of frost in two Sunday. Sunday itself looks to be a | :27:01. | :27:07. | |
bit cloudy, maybe with some rain, but for the most part some good, | :27:07. | :27:11. | |
sunny spells. Some uncertainty into the working week, but it starts on | :27:12. | :27:15. | |
a decent note. Thank you very much. | :27:16. | :27:19. | |
Children In Need tomorrow night, they are at the National Motor | :27:19. | :27:24. | |
Museum. You are there as well. If you are doing something tomorrow, | :27:24. | :27:33. |
