Hello, I'm Sally Taylor. In tonight's programme, we go | :00:08. | :00:11. | |
undercover to expose a controversial plan. The cost of one | :00:11. | :00:17. | |
motorist was over �600. When I came back later, the car had gone, and | :00:17. | :00:22. | |
of course I thought it had been stolen, which was a big shock. | :00:22. | :00:25. | |
Fighting the floods, the new plan being considered to stop a repeat | :00:25. | :00:32. | |
of this. To see it happen again was heart-wrenching, not to mention the | :00:32. | :00:36. | |
financial aspect of the insurance, premiums have rocketed. | :00:36. | :00:42. | |
Then Lady's new ice-breaker departs for Antarctica. -- the Royal Navy's | :00:42. | :00:46. | |
ice-breaker. And farewell to a Southampton some | :00:46. | :00:56. | |
:00:56. | :00:57. | ||
as the film director Ken Russell Motorists in the South could be | :00:57. | :01:00. | |
faced with another year of clamping misery before new laws come into | :01:00. | :01:03. | |
force. The Government is planning to bring in tighter regulations to | :01:03. | :01:07. | |
control the business. But, in the meantime, Inside Out has followed a | :01:07. | :01:09. | |
prolific car clamping company in Southampton which makes hundreds of | :01:09. | :01:16. | |
pounds from drivers in just a few hours. Dennis Wilson from | :01:16. | :01:19. | |
Southampton is one victim, he paid out almost �700 for choosing the | :01:19. | :01:27. | |
wrong parking spot. Jenny Craddock reports. | :01:27. | :01:31. | |
19-year-old Dennis Wilson is one of many Hampshire motorists who are | :01:31. | :01:36. | |
angry at the charges they have had to pay after being clamped by | :01:36. | :01:44. | |
white's car-park solutions. It was an area I had parked in lots of | :01:44. | :01:48. | |
times before, and I have no idea it had been made a prohibited area so | :01:48. | :01:52. | |
I did not look for any signs or anything like that. Then when I | :01:52. | :01:56. | |
came back later, the car had gone, which of course I thought it had | :01:56. | :02:01. | |
been stolen, which was a big shot. Mr Wilson was not displaying his | :02:01. | :02:05. | |
disability badge and his car had been towed away. Because it was a | :02:05. | :02:09. | |
Friday, he says they told him he could not collected until after the | :02:09. | :02:17. | |
weekend. The total bill? By the Monday, it was �300 for towing away, | :02:17. | :02:23. | |
180 I think for the clamp, four days of storage at �42, and on top | :02:23. | :02:29. | |
of that you were virtually obliged to pay by credit card because not | :02:29. | :02:33. | |
many people can lay their hands on seven or �800 on the spur of the | :02:33. | :02:39. | |
moment, so the total I paid was �680.40. All of these people have | :02:39. | :02:43. | |
been clamped by the same company and are angry about what happened, | :02:43. | :02:49. | |
yet it is perfectly legal. For now, that is. A bill is currently going | :02:49. | :02:52. | |
through Parliament to outlaw clamping on private land. Not | :02:52. | :02:58. | |
before time, says one local MP. am definitely no fan of clamping. | :02:58. | :03:03. | |
The sooner we get the prohibition on this on the statute book, which | :03:03. | :03:09. | |
should be next spring, the better, because it has got to stop. | :03:09. | :03:14. | |
And Inside Out presenter Jon Cuthill joins me in the studio now. | :03:14. | :03:18. | |
You and the team went undercover to expose the company. How did you do | :03:18. | :03:23. | |
that? The first-string is to ask Mr White for an interview, we wanted | :03:23. | :03:29. | |
to hear his side of the story, but he declined the offer. So I got | :03:29. | :03:35. | |
myself a car, I got myself a ropey disguise, and I got a pretend | :03:35. | :03:40. | |
sister and parked the car in a spot that we knew he patrolled. Sure | :03:40. | :03:45. | |
enough, within 40 minutes, this happened. We got clamped by the | :03:45. | :03:51. | |
company. What we wanted to do was to see if we were charged the same | :03:51. | :03:54. | |
rate that motorists have been telling us. We just heard from | :03:54. | :03:59. | |
Dennis Wilson, charge nearly �700. We wanted to see how the charges | :03:59. | :04:03. | |
back-up, and they certainly did. Are there many victims to this | :04:03. | :04:09. | |
company? We found with seven that spoke to many, many more. They | :04:09. | :04:14. | |
operate in the Southampton, Eastleigh, Winchester areas. It is | :04:14. | :04:16. | |
not the fact that people are parking in the wrong spot and | :04:17. | :04:21. | |
getting punished for that, what we are questioning is the level of | :04:21. | :04:24. | |
punishment because surely the fines should be in proportion to the | :04:24. | :04:28. | |
level of wrong doing, and that is what angered so many motorists that | :04:28. | :04:32. | |
we spoke to. They said in some cases, yes, I parked in the wrong | :04:32. | :04:37. | |
spot, but how can it be justified that I am charged hundreds and | :04:37. | :04:41. | |
hundreds of pounds? I have to say, Jason White is not breaking the law, | :04:41. | :04:46. | |
he is not doing anything wrong, it is just the level of charge. Thank | :04:46. | :04:52. | |
you very much. You can see more on that at 7:30pm tonight on BBC | :04:52. | :04:55. | |
Inside Out. A community on the Isle of Wight | :04:55. | :04:59. | |
have been left stunned after part of their church was set on fire. St | :04:59. | :05:02. | |
Mary the Virgin in Carisbrooke has been targeted for the third time in | :05:02. | :05:04. | |
recent months. Yesterday, parishioners found the altar ablaze | :05:04. | :05:07. | |
when they came in to prepare for a service. Two crucifixes had also | :05:07. | :05:13. | |
been removed. Six people have been arrested for arson and theft. | :05:13. | :05:17. | |
Coming in for a service and finding a church full of smoke and the | :05:17. | :05:23. | |
damage to the Alter and the way in which the crucifixes had been | :05:23. | :05:28. | |
ripped off the wall and thrown around the village, it has upset a | :05:28. | :05:35. | |
lot of people, they were left in tears after seen it. -- after | :05:35. | :05:37. | |
seeing it. BBC Radio Berkshire's mid-morning | :05:37. | :05:40. | |
presenter Anne Diamond is accusing News International of making her | :05:40. | :05:43. | |
out to be a "cold-blooded murderer". She told the inquiry into media | :05:43. | :05:46. | |
ethics that she had been "targeted" by Rupert Murdoch's empire. In 1987, | :05:46. | :05:48. | |
The Sun ran a front-page headline disclosing a traffic accident seven | :05:48. | :05:52. | |
years before in which a man died. The inquest and a subsequent Press | :05:52. | :05:55. | |
Council inquiry ruled that she was not to blame. She said there must | :05:55. | :06:00. | |
be change. I think I would most like to say | :06:00. | :06:07. | |
that it does not have to be like this. It is so sad that a handful | :06:07. | :06:12. | |
of bad journalists have besmirched the profession in this way. We need | :06:12. | :06:16. | |
a free press because I know a lot of very fine journalists who do a | :06:16. | :06:20. | |
good job, and we have been hearing so much in the last few weeks of | :06:20. | :06:22. | |
very bad journalists who have done an appalling job. | :06:22. | :06:25. | |
And Anne will be talking about the press enquiry on BBC Radio | :06:25. | :06:28. | |
Berkshire from 7am tomorrow with Andrew Peach. | :06:28. | :06:30. | |
Nearly 300 people working for Thames Valley Police have had their | :06:30. | :06:33. | |
jobs saved. Last year, the force announced hundreds of police | :06:33. | :06:37. | |
officers and staff would lose their jobs to balance the books. Now, far | :06:37. | :06:40. | |
fewer posts will be cut than first thought. Our home affairs | :06:40. | :06:45. | |
correspondent Alex Forsyth joins me now with more on this. | :06:45. | :06:48. | |
Like most police forces, Thames Valley has to save money, �50 | :06:48. | :06:52. | |
million over the next few years. Earlier this year, the force said | :06:52. | :07:00. | |
this would mean cutting around 800 jobs, including 250 officers. But | :07:00. | :07:04. | |
today, the Chief Constable has said that is no longer the case. Now, | :07:04. | :07:08. | |
the total jobs to go over the next four years is likely to be nearer | :07:08. | :07:14. | |
to 500, and just 100 of these will be police officers. | :07:14. | :07:18. | |
We had to lose may be some investigation roles, police | :07:18. | :07:24. | |
officers, may be some intelligence roles. More of those are safe. Of | :07:24. | :07:29. | |
the Police Staff, we will lose less police community support officers | :07:29. | :07:33. | |
and less INVESTIGATORS. Both of those roles are very much nearer | :07:33. | :07:41. | |
the front line -- Les case investigators. | :07:42. | :07:44. | |
Thames Valley says there are several reasons for the change. If | :07:44. | :07:47. | |
they freeze council tax next year they will get a �4 million grant | :07:48. | :07:51. | |
from the Government, more than they had budgeted for. And there is a | :07:51. | :07:53. | |
national review of police pay and conditions, which could see the | :07:54. | :07:56. | |
amount police get paid for things like overtime reduced. This could | :07:56. | :08:00. | |
save Thames Valley Police �12 million a year. So although it | :08:00. | :08:03. | |
might mean more police officers in work, it could also mean they are | :08:03. | :08:06. | |
on less money. These changes will affect all police forces, but so | :08:06. | :08:11. | |
far no others have said they will mean fewer job cuts. And while | :08:11. | :08:14. | |
Thames Valley Police is relieved to be protecting some posts, hundreds | :08:14. | :08:20. | |
of jobs are still going. So they are increasing officers in | :08:20. | :08:27. | |
neighbourhood patrols, but staff in support roles will reduce. The | :08:27. | :08:29. | |
Chief Constable said despite this little bit of good news, tackling | :08:29. | :08:32. | |
crime while balancing the books will get tougher over the next few | :08:32. | :08:42. | |
:08:42. | :09:06. | ||
The Government has announced that it plans to close the search and | :09:07. | :09:09. | |
rescue helicopter base at Portland in Dorset in six years' time. This | :09:10. | :09:12. | |
reverses an earlier decision to keep the site open. It follows an | :09:13. | :09:14. | |
announcement earlier this month that the coastguard co-ordination | :09:14. | :09:17. | |
centre in nearby Weymouth would also close. In future, search and | :09:17. | :09:20. | |
rescue helicopter cover for Dorset will be covered from Lee-on-the- | :09:20. | :09:21. | |
Solent. They thought the problem had been | :09:22. | :09:24. | |
fixed. But just months after a new flood alleviation scheme was | :09:24. | :09:27. | |
completed, homes in Reading were swamped for a second time. | :09:27. | :09:29. | |
Household insurance premiums have rocketed since the latest flooding | :09:29. | :09:32. | |
in August. Tonight, council leaders will vote for further costly works, | :09:32. | :09:35. | |
which they hope will solve the issue once and for all. Allen | :09:35. | :09:37. | |
Sinclair is in Reading tonight. It is an awful experience for | :09:37. | :09:40. | |
people whose hands are flooded but imagine it happening to you for a | :09:40. | :09:42. | |
second time, especially after you have been told work has been | :09:42. | :09:44. | |
carried out to protect your property. Neighbours in Reading are | :09:44. | :09:46. | |
understandably angry and very anxious, fearful that the next | :09:46. | :09:48. | |
heavy downpour could make it third time unlucky. | :09:48. | :09:50. | |
August's flash flooding caught many people out but none more than the | :09:50. | :09:52. | |
residents of Kingsley Close, that is because Reading council had only | :09:52. | :09:54. | |
just completed a quarter million pounds scheme intent -- intended to | :09:54. | :09:57. | |
prevent flooding like this after many more homes had been swamped | :09:57. | :10:01. | |
for years previously. Speaking today, neighbours that did for a | :10:01. | :10:05. | |
second time were still frustrated and angry. To think it could happen | :10:05. | :10:08. | |
again was heart-wrenching and not to mention the financial aspects, | :10:08. | :10:13. | |
the insurance. Premiums have rocketed, we have to pay .. We used | :10:13. | :10:16. | |
to playing house insurer has. they thought they were going to | :10:16. | :10:22. | |
amend, they have paid -- they have made worse. I hope they sold it | :10:22. | :10:27. | |
very soon, otherwise insurance is not going to want to know. | :10:27. | :10:30. | |
government-funded scheme involved burying a huge underground tank | :10:30. | :10:34. | |
which worked exactly as planned, preventing flooding over a much | :10:34. | :10:38. | |
wider area. The problems in Kingsley Close this time had been | :10:38. | :10:43. | |
caused by blocked drainage ditches on nearby private land. The heavy | :10:43. | :10:47. | |
downpour overwhelms them, with water seeping back. I am very | :10:47. | :10:52. | |
confident now that what is going to be done will be as much as can be | :10:52. | :10:55. | |
done and is being thoroughly investigated. The only thing I | :10:55. | :10:59. | |
would say is you can never totally 100% guarantee against flooding | :10:59. | :11:03. | |
anywhere in the can do. Measures being debated by councillors | :11:03. | :11:07. | |
tonight include using new powers to go on to private land to clear | :11:07. | :11:11. | |
ditches and send the bill to the landowners but they will need to | :11:11. | :11:15. | |
wait another heavy downpour to see if this time it actually works. | :11:15. | :11:18. | |
Councillors are meeting here tonight and will rubber-stamp plans | :11:18. | :11:22. | |
to spend �100,000 on measures to clear the drainage ditches. They | :11:22. | :11:26. | |
will not be put to the test, though, until we have another heavy | :11:26. | :11:29. | |
downpour. In the past, it has been cleaned up | :11:29. | :11:32. | |
by scout groups, but now the probation service says a small | :11:32. | :11:35. | |
stretch of water on the Isle of Wight is too risky for its | :11:35. | :11:38. | |
offenders to touch. The Isle of Wight parish council received the | :11:38. | :11:41. | |
feedback after a risk assessment was carried out at Lukely Brook | :11:41. | :11:45. | |
near Newport. Catharina Moh has the story. | :11:45. | :11:50. | |
Lukely Brook, not exactly a tyrant, but during prolonged heavy rainfall, | :11:50. | :11:54. | |
the area Kennford, which is why Newport Parish Council want to | :11:54. | :11:58. | |
clear the undergrowth so it can flow freely. They were hoping to | :11:58. | :12:02. | |
save taxpayers' money by getting the local community payback scheme | :12:02. | :12:05. | |
involves, where offenders would come and clear it for free. But | :12:05. | :12:13. | |
they were told it was to gain to us. It is a community job, health and | :12:13. | :12:17. | |
safety. What else is there that have an safety cannot do? Let's see | :12:17. | :12:23. | |
how deep the water is. That is the depth. The Hampshire Probation | :12:23. | :12:27. | |
Trust told us it was possesses all community payback projects and in | :12:27. | :12:30. | |
relation to this project the proposed site at Lukely Brook is | :12:30. | :12:34. | |
next to a busy main road and it was felt that it was not advisable to | :12:34. | :12:40. | |
place a group of offenders under supervision in such a location. | :12:40. | :12:44. | |
Community payback schemes see offenders doing a variety of unpaid | :12:44. | :12:49. | |
work. This is one group helping out last December in Sussex during the | :12:49. | :12:54. | |
heavy snowfall. It is not that dangerous. I remember being a scout, | :12:54. | :12:59. | |
I used to do stuff like that. just put yellow jackets on. Tony | :12:59. | :13:04. | |
said in the past scouts had cleared his job. -- played this book. It is | :13:04. | :13:09. | |
a job that needs to be done but will not be done by offenders. The | :13:09. | :13:11. | |
council are now looking for companies willing to take on this | :13:11. | :13:17. | |
task. Still to come: there is a change in | :13:17. | :13:20. | |
the air. We will have the forecast. | :13:20. | :13:24. | |
It is getting cooler this week but find out later in the programme | :13:24. | :13:31. | |
when we will have the heavy rainfall and the strong winds. | :13:31. | :13:34. | |
Today was supposed to be the biggest online shopping day in the | :13:34. | :13:38. | |
run-up to Christmas but chances are many of you will want a festive | :13:38. | :13:43. | |
high street experience. Lights and decorations are up in most places | :13:43. | :13:46. | |
across the south to entice shoppers. In Bognor Regis a scheme has just | :13:47. | :13:51. | |
been launched to allow visitors to qualify for free parking. But along | :13:51. | :13:55. | |
the coast, the Green run council in Brighton and Hove is looking to | :13:55. | :14:05. | |
There is no need to feed the meter with his parking scheme. For �1 you | :14:05. | :14:10. | |
get a disc entitled you to two hours' free parking. Its aim is to | :14:10. | :14:15. | |
help the local economy. I am hoping it will achieve more | :14:15. | :14:18. | |
food for for the traders. Bad economic times, we want to help | :14:18. | :14:25. | |
them as much as we can. All credit to the organisations, we are | :14:25. | :14:31. | |
putting for this. The councils have listened to their concerns. There | :14:31. | :14:36. | |
was a petition with 6,000 signatures in favour of the scheme. | :14:36. | :14:40. | |
Always a good idea to save people money. If they said it on parking | :14:40. | :14:44. | |
they will spend it on the shops. Get more people in a camp, have a | :14:45. | :14:48. | |
look round. The number of shops that have shut down. Bring more | :14:48. | :14:54. | |
people into the town. Parking is always a big issue. Along the coast | :14:54. | :14:58. | |
Brighton and Hove's council is planning to increase some parking | :14:58. | :15:03. | |
charges. Tariffs in some of the busiest parts will double. Some | :15:03. | :15:07. | |
charges in a quieter car parks will fall. The castle predict it would | :15:07. | :15:12. | |
raise an additional �1.3 million -- the council. It would be invested | :15:12. | :15:16. | |
in transport schemes. Some people will end up paying more. But we | :15:16. | :15:21. | |
hope people would try to find other ways to come into the city centre. | :15:21. | :15:26. | |
We have got an excellent bus service. A lot of rail connections. | :15:26. | :15:30. | |
Half the people that come to the city already come by public | :15:30. | :15:35. | |
transport. We would want to encourage people to give it a try. | :15:35. | :15:38. | |
Back in Bognor Regis for free parking project starts on Thursday. | :15:38. | :15:45. | |
A trial scheme which will last for 12 months. | :15:45. | :15:48. | |
It is fair to say the man behind me here was flamboyant, controversial | :15:48. | :15:53. | |
and provocative. The film director Ken Russell has died in hospital at | :15:53. | :15:56. | |
the age of 84. He had been making films for more than 50 years and | :15:56. | :16:00. | |
was known for his controversial works such as Women in Love and | :16:00. | :16:03. | |
Tommy. He was born in Southampton and lived in the New Forest for | :16:03. | :16:08. | |
many years. We look back at his life and work in the south. | :16:08. | :16:14. | |
I hope my hold house is still there. Yes! Hasn't changed a bit. There is | :16:14. | :16:17. | |
a home is where the parties and Ken Russell wore his heart on his | :16:17. | :16:21. | |
sleeve. He grew up in Southampton and as his film-making career took | :16:21. | :16:25. | |
off he stayed local to his roots. Some of his biggest films were set | :16:25. | :16:33. | |
in the south. I always think of him as my mentor. He changed my life. | :16:33. | :16:39. | |
After I did Boyfriend I went on to do theatre and film. | :16:39. | :16:43. | |
A fellow of Southampton Solent University he remained involved | :16:43. | :16:47. | |
until the end, regularly reviewing work for the students. How long did | :16:47. | :16:55. | |
that take to shoot. Five days. is a good effort. | :16:55. | :17:00. | |
In 2006 he cheated death. His home in the New Forest went up in flames. | :17:00. | :17:06. | |
He and his wife managed to escape seeking refuge in their local pub. | :17:06. | :17:11. | |
Today the village remembered its most famous resident. He was full | :17:11. | :17:15. | |
of life. Lots of stories, great guy, good fun to have around. A quieter | :17:16. | :17:20. | |
character. He would come in and ask for interesting things. He came in | :17:20. | :17:26. | |
once and wanted a couple of white overalls for a play he was doing. | :17:26. | :17:33. | |
Very short-tempered, good attitude. Just a normal one of us lot, really. | :17:33. | :17:37. | |
To the outside world he was one of Britain's most notorious film | :17:37. | :17:43. | |
directors. Renowned for his unconventional approach. BBC's | :17:43. | :17:49. | |
South invited him to make a film about female footballers, and his | :17:49. | :17:54. | |
eccentric style shot through. You'll never guess what they were | :17:54. | :17:59. | |
doing taking the water at Brighton. It was his work for the big screen | :17:59. | :18:07. | |
will insure his memory will live on a. This was felt across the number | :18:07. | :18:12. | |
of locations in the south. He was a quite large character, although he | :18:12. | :18:18. | |
was assured man. But a very large character. You tried not to put in | :18:18. | :18:24. | |
-- put a foot wrong. As long as my films last, it will be so. I will | :18:24. | :18:32. | |
have my left my mark. 10 Russell died at the age of 84. | :18:32. | :18:37. | |
You knew him quite well. I do plenty of work with him. He was an | :18:38. | :18:41. | |
incredibly passionate man about what he did. Probably the most | :18:41. | :18:45. | |
difficult man to interview. He didn't suffer fools gladly. | :18:45. | :18:53. | |
Lovely man. Auntie's board. -- on to spot. A bit of a conflict, | :18:53. | :18:57. | |
Reading and Ipswich. What a result for the royals. Take a look at the | :18:57. | :19:05. | |
goals. This is the result of the weekend. 1-1, dramatic last 14 | :19:05. | :19:10. | |
minutes at Portland Road. Josh Carson made it to, you thought they | :19:11. | :19:16. | |
were heading for defeat. Stoppage time, equaliser. They will get a | :19:16. | :19:20. | |
point, no, three minutes into injury time, they claimed their 4th | :19:20. | :19:26. | |
away win on the road, much-needed result. Excellent for Reading. | :19:26. | :19:31. | |
Portsmouth were at home on Saturday. The club saying nothing about last | :19:31. | :19:36. | |
week's arrest and subsequent baling of Vladimir Antonov for alleged | :19:36. | :19:39. | |
asset-stripping of a Lithuanian back. They removed his name from | :19:39. | :19:43. | |
the inside page of the programme before the game. On the field a | :19:43. | :19:47. | |
face from the past returned to haunt them. Portsmouth fans can | :19:47. | :19:52. | |
remember him, David Nugent back at his former club on Saturday. We | :19:52. | :19:58. | |
will remember this save for a while. Their home form is their strength | :19:58. | :20:05. | |
this season. David Norris finds the net. Nugent, 20 goals in four years | :20:05. | :20:09. | |
at Fratton Park. They always come back to hurt you. 1-1 it finished. | :20:09. | :20:14. | |
Southampton always call, don't they? Well, not on Saturday. They | :20:14. | :20:24. | |
:20:24. | :20:27. | ||
were beaten by Bristol City. Nicky Maynard, another deflection, and | :20:27. | :20:31. | |
his Coventry City with how not to play a way out at the back. Good | :20:31. | :20:35. | |
save, shame about the defender. Brighton on course to his second | :20:35. | :20:44. | |
win in three, city levelled through this fine header. This is his first | :20:44. | :20:50. | |
goal for the club. Lee Bradbury will not be on his own for much | :20:50. | :20:54. | |
longer. He is naming an assistant at Bournemouth on Wednesday. The | :20:54. | :21:01. | |
best chance against Oldham, this volley from Charlie Sheringham. | :21:01. | :21:04. | |
In lead to Swindon were too strong for Aldershot, two second half | :21:04. | :21:10. | |
goals. Crawley remains second in the table. Josh Sims and with a win | :21:10. | :21:19. | |
at Rotherham. -- Josh since then. So many deflected goals. -- Simpson. | :21:19. | :21:23. | |
Ian Williams is celebrating after winning the world match-racing | :21:23. | :21:28. | |
title. His third world title. He sees boats race of head-to-heads. | :21:28. | :21:32. | |
He is there from the left, and led to his crew to victory in Malaysia | :21:33. | :21:39. | |
or a board Team Pindar. Newbury racecourse so it's feature meeting | :21:39. | :21:45. | |
of the air. Quite a story. The Hennessy Gold Cup won by Carruthers | :21:45. | :21:49. | |
strained by Mark Bradstock, part- owned by Lord Oaksey, a former | :21:49. | :21:57. | |
winner of this race, many moons ago, 35-year-old jockey Mattie Batchelor. | :21:57. | :22:01. | |
A little bit of local sporting history made other weekend as three | :22:01. | :22:04. | |
female officials took charge of the men's football match in the Wessex | :22:04. | :22:08. | |
Premier Division. Lucy May on the left-hand side refereed the game | :22:08. | :22:14. | |
between Tottenham kneeling and Lymington Town. -- Totton and Eling. | :22:14. | :22:19. | |
The first time in their history three female officials have taken | :22:19. | :22:25. | |
charge of the match. What I want to get out of this is a positive | :22:25. | :22:28. | |
stance of female referees, they see three of us doing it and they hope | :22:28. | :22:33. | |
they can do it as well. I had the way this has been publicised and | :22:33. | :22:36. | |
positively supported by not only the clubs but also the media, it is | :22:36. | :22:39. | |
something that will be really positive to come out of it. Heavily | :22:39. | :22:48. | |
we will continue to grow as females in the men's sport. It is good. | :22:48. | :22:53. | |
It is good. They make the point, it wasn't just some kind of stunt. | :22:53. | :22:58. | |
They are genuine, they are good at it. Interesting to see if the mood | :22:58. | :23:02. | |
changes on the pitch. The Royal Navy's new ice patrol | :23:02. | :23:06. | |
ship has just left Portsmouth this evening for an eight month to | :23:06. | :23:09. | |
plummet to Antarctica. She spent six months undergoing a rapid refit | :23:09. | :23:13. | |
after being released from away. The ship is ready for her mission | :23:13. | :23:19. | |
surveying and patrolling the frozen continent. This is HMS protector. | :23:19. | :23:25. | |
She weighs 5,000 tons and has her own giant ice knife. It is the | :23:25. | :23:29. | |
weight of the Basle combined with the ice knife that crashes through | :23:29. | :23:34. | |
those metre thick chunks of ice. 70% of the world's fresh water is | :23:34. | :23:38. | |
prison in Antarctica. Hundreds of thousands of years old -- is frozen. | :23:38. | :23:42. | |
When you get some of these ice cores taken from the British | :23:42. | :23:47. | |
Antarctic Survey you can hear the fizz of the air escaping from | :23:47. | :23:53. | |
thousands of years ago. A piece of history. The ship used to be a | :23:53. | :23:57. | |
merchant ship. We have added a lot of military capabilities, notably | :23:57. | :24:01. | |
survey equipment. It is second to none, really impressive bit of kit. | :24:02. | :24:06. | |
For me, and of this survey, in the background of warfare, and frigates, | :24:06. | :24:10. | |
this is very different. For many on board this type of mission is the | :24:10. | :24:15. | |
first. Something completely different. The furthest I have been | :24:15. | :24:18. | |
is the Mediterranean. This is something completely different. | :24:18. | :24:22. | |
This is the country's first ice- breaking patrol in the Antarctic | :24:22. | :24:26. | |
since the endurance ran into trouble off Chile in 2008 and | :24:27. | :24:30. | |
nearly sank after taking on water. For the next three years HMS | :24:30. | :24:35. | |
Protector is on lease from the Norwegian company. The impressive | :24:35. | :24:39. | |
ship doesn't travel alone. It is accompanied by a flotilla of small | :24:39. | :24:45. | |
boats, quad bikes and the reader than a sawn-off on board -- and | :24:45. | :24:52. | |
there is even a sauna on board. big freezer, another freezer at the | :24:52. | :25:01. | |
back. Didn't get any more in there. It is certainly in shipshape. | :25:01. | :25:06. | |
There wasn't a sauna a board a Endurance when I went to Antarctica. | :25:06. | :25:10. | |
You had a month on board. And a bit extra when we got stuck. | :25:10. | :25:14. | |
On to the weather. It will not be as cold as that. | :25:14. | :25:24. | |
:25:24. | :25:25. | ||
A bit of rust this morning. -- We do have some very mild air over | :25:25. | :25:29. | |
us. Come tomorrow afternoon that slips southwards and the cold air | :25:29. | :25:35. | |
takes charge. Winter is certainly on its way. This week, quite a lot | :25:35. | :25:39. | |
of rain around at times. Very strong wind, in particular | :25:40. | :25:43. | |
overnight tonight and tomorrow daytime. For this evening we can | :25:43. | :25:47. | |
expect a cloudy night in general. A lot of rain arriving from the | :25:47. | :25:51. | |
Atlantic. Patchy in nature. You can see the odd burst here and there | :25:52. | :25:55. | |
through the early hours. The cloud cover will hold in the warmth. | :25:55. | :26:01. | |
Temperatures overnight will get warmer as the night progresses. A | :26:01. | :26:05. | |
mild night to come. Not as cold as it was last night. We start the day | :26:05. | :26:11. | |
tomorrow with a lot of cloud around. The main band of rain arrives. It | :26:11. | :26:19. | |
will be very heavy in places. Gale- force gusts of up to 70 mph. | :26:19. | :26:23. | |
Despite the rain fall, there will be a high of 14 degrees. That is | :26:23. | :26:28. | |
when it turned colder tomorrow night. One or two showers may drift | :26:28. | :26:32. | |
in from the English Channel 4 southernmost counties. For some of | :26:32. | :26:41. | |
us, staying dry altogether. There will be some respite on Wednesday. | :26:41. | :26:45. | |
We do have this weather front edging its way in. Some sunshine on | :26:45. | :26:53. | |
Wednesday. Also the odd shower. 4th the rain will rattle in. That will | :26:53. | :26:57. | |
clear first thing on Thursday. A mixture of sunny spells and chatted | :26:57. | :27:04. | |
-- scattered showers. Further rain moving in on Thursday. Friday, the | :27:04. | :27:08. | |
best day to enjoy the sunshine. It will stay dry. The wind will be a | :27:08. | :27:15. | |
lot lighter. More cloud edging its way in. Very heavy rain, strong | :27:15. | :27:20. | |
wind. A little respite on Wednesday. Sunshine on Friday. | :27:20. | :27:25. |
