:00:02. > :00:05.Hello, I'm Sally Taylor. Welcome to South Today. In tonight's

:00:05. > :00:12.programme: She is not a spy - the Russian

:00:12. > :00:18.former aide to a Portsmouth MP is cleared of espionage. We hear from

:00:18. > :00:21.Mike Hancock. What amazes me is that I asked the

:00:21. > :00:25.Security Service is not once, but on three occasions, whether I

:00:25. > :00:29.should remove Katia from working in the House of Commons and they told

:00:29. > :00:32.me it was not necessary. A coroner returns a verdict on a

:00:32. > :00:38.woman who fell 13 storeys to her death after being released from a

:00:38. > :00:48.psychiatric hospital. It is hard, very, very hard to cope.

:00:48. > :00:49.

:00:49. > :00:52.Most of the time I don't think you do cope, you just get on with it.

:00:52. > :00:55.Portsmouth Football Club has plunged into crisis, the holding

:00:55. > :01:02.company is in administration and they now face a challenge to secure

:01:02. > :01:04.the club's long-term future. And the jewel in the Jurassic

:01:04. > :01:14.coastline once more - the facelift which has saved Durlston Castle

:01:14. > :01:18.It is the story that has intrigued Westminster and the world of spooks

:01:18. > :01:22.and spies - the Russian aide and the MP for Portsmouth South, Mike

:01:22. > :01:28.Hancock. She was accused of being a spy and using her job in Mr

:01:28. > :01:31.Hancock's office to ask sensitive questions. They had a four-year

:01:31. > :01:33.love affair, but she always denied that she was working for Moscow.

:01:33. > :01:40.Today, an immigration appeal commission ruled that Katia

:01:40. > :01:43.Zatuliveter was not a spy, and she could stay in the UK. In a moment,

:01:43. > :01:45.we will hear from Mike Hancock, who has given his first television

:01:46. > :01:52.interview on the subject to our political editor Peter Henley. But

:01:52. > :01:58.first, Joe Campbell reports from today's hearing in London.

:01:58. > :02:03.Martyn Day Mata Hari or victim of a botched Spy hand? In the end it

:02:03. > :02:07.took seconds for this court to give its verdict. Katia Zatuliveter was

:02:07. > :02:12.no threat and could stay in Britain. If the security service, like the

:02:12. > :02:16.court, has rigorously analysed the available evidence, they would have

:02:16. > :02:21.never concluded that she was a Russian spy and we would not be

:02:21. > :02:26.here today. They have chosen to waste their time at great public

:02:26. > :02:32.expense, needlessly and unfairly pursuing an innocent young woman.

:02:32. > :02:36.Rather than the TV image of the sophisticated all-seeing counter

:02:36. > :02:40.espionage organisation, the legal team claimed MI5 jumped to the

:02:40. > :02:44.conclusion she was a spy after hearing she had a string of lovers.

:02:44. > :02:51.Her diary, read out in court, told a different story about her

:02:51. > :02:56.relationship with Portsmouth South MP Mike Hancox. I am in love. He is

:02:56. > :03:01.going to Iraq today, I worry a lot. I don't know what to do with myself.

:03:01. > :03:07.He told me he most probably won't be able to call right to me. I wish

:03:07. > :03:12.there was some News. Whilst America amassed a wealth of information

:03:12. > :03:22.against Anna Chapman and other spies operating Rahmat, the MI5 had

:03:22. > :03:23.

:03:23. > :03:29.no intelligence against catty as a direct -- against Catia. This woman,

:03:29. > :03:33.a Greenham Common campaign and anti-nuclear activist was at their

:03:33. > :03:38.behest. Katia was not asking these questions, we were put in the

:03:38. > :03:45.questions for the MP to ask. commission may have decided that

:03:45. > :03:51.Katia was not a Russian spy task would seducing Mike Hancock, but it

:03:51. > :03:54.is criticism -- it dismissed criticism of the intelligence

:03:54. > :03:58.services. Whilst it might disagree with their conclusions it said

:03:58. > :04:01.there had been ample grounds to suspect her.

:04:01. > :04:05.Katia Zatuliveter spoke to the BBC's Panorama this afternoon for a

:04:05. > :04:10.special programme tomorrow night. She gave her views on the British

:04:10. > :04:17.intelligence service, and how they treated her.

:04:17. > :04:19.The scariest part of this was that I have seen that these people were

:04:19. > :04:24.unprofessional and paranoid. Everything they have seen in

:04:24. > :04:28.Russian people was a spy. If you are rushing in this country, you

:04:28. > :04:31.are a spy. They could not understand how a Russian in London

:04:31. > :04:34.can speak the English language. The Portsmouth South MP, Mike

:04:34. > :04:37.Hancock, was called to give evidence at the hearing. He has

:04:37. > :04:39.always maintained he did nothing wrong, and that Katia was not

:04:39. > :04:46.spying for Russia. He gave his first television interview today on

:04:47. > :04:50.the subject to our political editor Peter Henley.

:04:50. > :04:55.Over 18 months, Mike Hancock's health has suffered. The revelation

:04:55. > :05:00.of an affair with his Russian researcher Forster's red nation --

:05:00. > :05:02.resignation from the Commons Defence Select Committee. But this

:05:02. > :05:06.morning the Lib Dem and he wanted put the record straight. I had

:05:06. > :05:11.known her for a long period of time and when this first came up and she

:05:11. > :05:16.was first detained and said, what shall I do? Shall I go home? I said,

:05:16. > :05:20.had you done anything wrong? She said no. I said in that case, in

:05:20. > :05:27.Britain, we find these things, we don't get into the system, we fight

:05:27. > :05:32.it. But you took on someone from Russia? Yes. The security thing is

:05:32. > :05:35.lifted, but you had a relationship with her has -- as well. Having to

:05:35. > :05:39.compromise security or your position? I don't believe that to

:05:39. > :05:43.be the case. If I thought for one minute that compromise, and if

:05:43. > :05:48.there was a shred of evidence -- a shred of evidence to the contrary,

:05:48. > :05:53.Katia would not have continued to work for me. The security services

:05:53. > :05:57.on no occasion suggested to me she should not continue to work for me.

:05:57. > :06:02.She was vetted twice by the House of Commons, had her visa renewed

:06:02. > :06:06.twice and the security services did not object... Did they know about

:06:06. > :06:10.the relationship? I'm sure they did if they knew everything else. But

:06:10. > :06:14.you have to accept the first time Katia was contacted or I was

:06:14. > :06:18.contacted by the security services was when they asked her to work for

:06:18. > :06:22.them. So they came to her to ask her to work for British

:06:22. > :06:27.intelligence? They wanted to talk to Katia with a view of using her

:06:27. > :06:31.and when she said no, I think they were slightly put out. He may have

:06:31. > :06:37.lost some of his influence in the House of Commons but Mike Hancock

:06:37. > :06:39.says he will be keeping a close eye on the security services.

:06:39. > :06:47.And there is a Panorama special tomorrow night, From Russia With

:06:47. > :06:49.Love. That is on BBC One at 8.30pm. Thousands of people are going to be

:06:49. > :06:52.affected by tomorrow's national strike by public sector workers

:06:52. > :06:57.over pension reforms. Schools, hospitals, council services and

:06:57. > :06:59.airports will all be affected to varying degrees. Hundreds of

:06:59. > :07:04.schools will either be completely or partially closed, leaving

:07:04. > :07:09.thousands of pupils locked out of classrooms. Hospitals hope to run a

:07:09. > :07:11.near-normal service, but some operations are being cancelled.

:07:12. > :07:15.Some council services such as bin collections will be affected, and

:07:15. > :07:21.some libraries will be closed. And anyone arriving in the UK and going

:07:21. > :07:24.through border control could face severe delays. That is where we

:07:24. > :07:28.start our coverage tonight, at Gatwick airport, where we can join

:07:28. > :07:34.our transport correspondent Paul Clifton.

:07:34. > :07:37.The airport is warning of significant disruption. For several

:07:37. > :07:40.days now is has been asking airlines to cut down the number of

:07:40. > :07:47.passengers arriving, encouraging people to switch their flights to

:07:47. > :07:52.different days. The airport expects 250 inbound flights, that is about

:07:52. > :07:59.30,000 passengers, which is a quiet day at Gatwick. Outbound passengers

:07:59. > :08:02.should not be affected. It says all non-essential work and meetings

:08:02. > :08:07.tomorrow have been cancelled said that hundreds of extra staff can

:08:07. > :08:11.help passengers who may be stuck in queues, providing refreshments and

:08:11. > :08:16.assistance. Those queues will bailed during the day. We are

:08:16. > :08:20.prepared for the worst so if we do get people held in immigration

:08:20. > :08:23.areas, we have special facilities put on, there will be food and

:08:23. > :08:28.drink, entertainment for the children to help the families and

:08:28. > :08:36.we will process people in priority order, people with reduced mobility,

:08:36. > :08:40.families it, etc. We are doing all we can to help the passengers.

:08:40. > :08:43.Heathrow Airport is expected to be expected even more severely with

:08:43. > :08:50.delays of up to 12 hours, but but Bournemouth and Southampton

:08:50. > :08:54.airports tell us that -- tell us disruption is likely to be minimal.

:08:54. > :09:00.In Southampton, most flights are from the UK so passengers do not

:09:00. > :09:03.pass three border controls. At Portsmouth ferry port, Brittany

:09:03. > :09:06.Ferries has been told the UK Border Agency will provide sufficient

:09:06. > :09:09.staff to cope. The other ferry operator, LD Lines, has cancelled

:09:09. > :09:12.its crossings, so passenger numbers will be reduced anyway. Rail

:09:12. > :09:15.commuters will not be affected, all passenger trains in the region are

:09:15. > :09:17.run by private companies. Buses are run by private companies, too.

:09:17. > :09:22.However, several may be affected by marches that are expected through

:09:22. > :09:27.town centres. And Reading Transport says with many schools closing

:09:27. > :09:31.tomorrow, there will be no point operating some of its school buses.

:09:31. > :09:37.So in the South, the main impact for transport is clearly going to

:09:37. > :09:42.be here at Gatwick. And staff say they are preparing to do the best

:09:42. > :09:46.they can in difficult circumstances. Our hospitals and ambulance service

:09:46. > :09:51.are likely to be hit by tomorrow's strikes. Our health correspondent

:09:51. > :09:55.David Fenton is with me now. What is this going to mean for emergency

:09:55. > :09:58.care? In theory, it should not be

:09:58. > :10:03.affected. All of the hospitals and ambulance services have an

:10:03. > :10:06.agreement with the unions at emergency care, 999 course, will

:10:06. > :10:11.all be protected so the most seriously ill patient should still

:10:11. > :10:14.be treated. Where I think we will see a difference is in routine

:10:14. > :10:18.appointments, day surgery, and already we are seeing some

:10:18. > :10:22.hospitals having to cancel their us. For people with operations tomorrow,

:10:22. > :10:25.what should they do? All of the hospitals I have spoken to say they

:10:25. > :10:29.are getting in touch with patients whose operations are being

:10:29. > :10:33.cancelled, so you should not get a situation where people are arriving

:10:33. > :10:36.for surgery and being turned away. We will have to see how that works

:10:36. > :10:40.out because the problem is that although the doctors and surgeons

:10:40. > :10:47.are there, the people who did the scams that are needed are likely to

:10:47. > :10:50.be on strike. What is your ceiling on how the NHS will cope for is I

:10:50. > :10:55.have spoken to a lot of people in the service today and I think there

:10:55. > :10:59.is a sense of keep calm, Coke, and it will be all right. Probably for

:10:59. > :11:02.a large part of the NHS it will be, but there will be pressure points.

:11:03. > :11:07.What we don't know is how serious it will be and how many patients

:11:07. > :11:09.will be affected. Thank you. Your BBC local radio station will

:11:09. > :11:13.have lots more details in their breakfast programmes tomorrow.

:11:13. > :11:16.There is more online, and if you are affected by the strike, or see

:11:16. > :11:20.a strike-related story, why not get in touch with us? You can email

:11:20. > :11:23.south.today@bbc.co.uk. You can send us pictures, video, or just let us

:11:24. > :11:33.know how the strike is affecting you. And we will have more on the

:11:34. > :11:44.

:11:44. > :11:47.strikes later in the programme. A memorial service has taken place

:11:47. > :11:49.for the Surrey detective found dead in woods near Haslemere. Friends

:11:49. > :11:52.and colleagues of Detective Constable Heather Cooper gathered

:11:52. > :11:54.at Guildford Cathedral to pass on their respects. Her former partner

:11:54. > :11:57.Peter Foster has been charged with her murder. Sean Killick reports.

:11:57. > :11:59.Heather Cooper's funeral took place in Yorkshire last week but today

:11:59. > :12:01.was an opportunity for colleagues and friends to celebrate her life.

:12:01. > :12:05.At the end of the service, her parents James and Caroline were

:12:05. > :12:07.presented with have a's police have. People are devastated, there is

:12:07. > :12:11.sadness throughout the force with what has happened. It was a shock

:12:11. > :12:16.to the force but today gives us an opportunity to show what we thought

:12:16. > :12:20.of Heather and to give a clear display of how much she meant to

:12:20. > :12:26.was also. Heather Cooper's body was found in woodland in West Sussex

:12:27. > :12:30.six weeks ago. Her partner Peter Foster has been charged with murder.

:12:30. > :12:34.Today, Heather was described as a dedicated and commended Detective

:12:34. > :12:39.who was also devoted to her two young children. I think it was

:12:39. > :12:43.quite clear that she was enormous in liked, loathed, and amusing

:12:43. > :12:49.person, fond of horses, fond of a joke, but also professionally very

:12:49. > :12:52.able. Heather Cooper worked in the domestic abuse unit in Guildford. A

:12:52. > :12:56.collection after today's service raised funds for a charity working

:12:57. > :13:04.with abuse victims. Head the's friends are determined to help

:13:04. > :13:08.others in her memory. -- Heather Cooper's friends.

:13:08. > :13:14.Still to come, it is fair to say that Rehana Khan is almost blown

:13:14. > :13:19.away. It is wild, wet and windy, but what is in store in the next

:13:19. > :13:21.few days? I will have a full forecast.

:13:21. > :13:24.22-year-old Victoria Nye was released from a psychiatric

:13:24. > :13:28.hospital. Just hours later, she was dead. She had thrown herself off

:13:28. > :13:31.the balcony of her 13th storey flat in Southampton. Today, the

:13:31. > :13:37.psychiatric ward at the Royal South Hants Hospital was criticised for

:13:37. > :13:43.its process leading up to Victoria's discharge. Laura Trant

:13:43. > :13:49.was at the inquest and spoke with Victoria's partner.

:13:49. > :13:53.It still hasn't sunk in. There was so much read out, so much said, it

:13:53. > :13:58.is going to take a while for it to sink in and register in my head.

:13:58. > :14:02.Victoria Nye fell to her death just hours after being discharged from

:14:02. > :14:07.the Royal South Hants Hospital in March last year. Today, Southampton

:14:07. > :14:10.coroner Keith Wiseman said she took her own life. He said Victoria Nye

:14:10. > :14:17.intended to take her own life when the balance of her own mind was

:14:17. > :14:21.disturbed. He added her death was a desperately tragic end. The coroner

:14:21. > :14:25.explained that Victoria was on the extreme end of those needing

:14:25. > :14:30.professional intervention. He also said it is impossible not to look

:14:30. > :14:34.at the discharge procedure and went on to say, why was one of her

:14:34. > :14:39.doctors not stronger in keeping Victoria in hospital? He suggested

:14:39. > :14:43.there were not enough notes on Victoria's mental state and these

:14:43. > :14:47.procedures are not optional but essential. It is important we learn

:14:47. > :14:51.the lessons, we looked carefully at what has happened and make sure we

:14:51. > :14:56.also put any lessons learned into action to provide changes and make

:14:56. > :14:59.improvements to the said this. Victoria's father had previously

:14:59. > :15:03.told Southampton coroner's court about his fears for his daughter's

:15:03. > :15:07.life if she was released. Today the coroner said he had the foresight

:15:07. > :15:13.for what his daughter might do. He went on to say it all the expertise

:15:13. > :15:17.in the world could not have the knowledge of what the future health.

:15:17. > :15:23.I don't think we will get a sense of closure, never, not when it is a

:15:23. > :15:29.loved one. You are losing something, missing something.

:15:29. > :15:32.Victor Alexander-McElvenny ending that report by Laura Trant.

:15:32. > :15:36.Nearly �50 million is to be spent on improving roads in Portsmouth.

:15:36. > :15:40.The Chancellor today approved a �34 million plan to clear the site of

:15:40. > :15:43.an old scrap yard at Tipner by the M275. Work to build 1,600 homes and

:15:43. > :15:46.a business park off the new junction will start next year. And

:15:46. > :15:56.�14 million will be spent on rebuilding Northern Bridge Road in

:15:56. > :15:59.

:15:59. > :16:01.Cosham. Let's return to tomorrow's public

:16:01. > :16:04.sector workers' strike, which will affect thousands of people, with

:16:04. > :16:07.hospitals, airports and schools likely to be heavily hit. We have

:16:07. > :16:11.been to meet one head-teacher who, for the first time in his 40 years,

:16:11. > :16:15.is going on strike. He explains why. Head teachers across the country

:16:15. > :16:19.will be disappointed, sad, and uncomfortable about having to close

:16:19. > :16:25.schools. That is not what we want to happen. We are supporting the

:16:25. > :16:30.action because we belief that pensions should be, certainly

:16:30. > :16:34.affordable, but we want to encourage young teachers at least

:16:34. > :16:38.to stay in the pension scheme. We believe that is really important.

:16:38. > :16:43.Certainly the average teacher is going to pay more, up to 1,500

:16:43. > :16:48.pounds a year, they are going to be working longer, and they are going

:16:48. > :16:52.to be, at the moment, getting less out of the pension scheme. The

:16:52. > :16:56.average teacher's pension is about �10,000, which is certainly not

:16:56. > :17:01.gold-plated, and for headteachers, they face increases in

:17:01. > :17:06.contributions of around �2,000 and when they come to take their

:17:06. > :17:10.pension the reduction will be about �4,000 a year. We are very sorry

:17:10. > :17:17.that children will lose a day's education tomorrow, but we are very

:17:17. > :17:23.clear that we want to ensure that we retained good teachers and well-

:17:23. > :17:26.motivated teachers and part of this action is about to ring that. --

:17:26. > :17:28.about doing that. Headteacher David Mews on why he

:17:28. > :17:30.will strike tomorrow. Some child care providers are readying

:17:30. > :17:33.themselves for extra clients who cannot take their children to

:17:33. > :17:36.school or the nursery. A business in Brighton that rents out office

:17:36. > :17:39.space by the hour to parents and looks after their children while

:17:39. > :17:45.they work says they have had extra bookings. Officreche opened a

:17:45. > :17:48.couple of months ago, and tomorrow could be the busiest day yet.

:17:48. > :17:53.I think we probably will see more people because of the action

:17:53. > :17:56.tomorrow. We have a member who has a young child and school-age kids,

:17:56. > :18:01.so he may be thinking he can work from home that he may well end up

:18:01. > :18:04.here because the school-age kids are home and he needs to get his

:18:04. > :18:06.baby outside the house and still get some good work done.

:18:06. > :18:09.Not everyone is backing tomorrow's strike. Businesses represented by

:18:09. > :18:11.the Hampshire Chamber of Commerce describe it as unwelcome. The Chief

:18:11. > :18:15.Executive criticised the timing and said that, while there is some

:18:15. > :18:21.sympathy for those going on strike, the damage it will do to the

:18:21. > :18:25.economy makes it difficult to understand.

:18:25. > :18:28.This is not a time when any business wants to lose income or

:18:28. > :18:32.football and reduce profits. Times are difficult enough and the

:18:32. > :18:37.country will be poorer after the strike, not richer, so it doesn't

:18:37. > :18:39.seem to be a very useful exercise. But local businesses will make the

:18:39. > :18:42.best of it. Keep up-to-date with all the

:18:42. > :18:45.developments in your area by tuning into BBC local radio tomorrow

:18:45. > :18:48.morning. And let us know how the strike affects you, or any strike-

:18:48. > :18:54.related stories you see. You can email us here at

:18:54. > :18:58.south.today@bbc.co.uk. It has been described as the jewel

:18:59. > :19:01.in the crown of the Jurassic Coast, yet it was on the brink of collapse.

:19:01. > :19:04.Durlston Castle has since been given a �5 million facelift and has

:19:04. > :19:14.just reopened as a brand new visitors' centre for the Jurassic

:19:14. > :19:18.coast. Roisin Gauson reports. The newest view point over an

:19:18. > :19:26.ancient coastline. After 18 months shrouded in scaffolding, Durlston

:19:26. > :19:29.Castle has opened its doors to the public once more. The restoration

:19:30. > :19:34.came at a crucial time. The structure needed edge and

:19:34. > :19:40.strengthening as it was literally falling apart at the seams --

:19:40. > :19:46.urgent strengthening. The whole of the castle was in poor state. A lot

:19:46. > :19:51.of structural movement had happened, so we basically dismantled the

:19:51. > :19:59.whole of this area, new beams put in, new tiling put in to stop any

:19:59. > :20:03.further movement. An art gallery, interpretation rims, and cafe

:20:03. > :20:08.complete the visitor experience, which starts on the approach. An

:20:08. > :20:14.artist has created a walks through time line charting the history of

:20:14. > :20:17.the Jurassic Coast but to the present day. All morning there have

:20:17. > :20:21.been people walking down the time I'm here and enjoying it, so I

:20:21. > :20:25.think it is going to be a real asset not just for the park but for

:20:25. > :20:29.Swanage and the whole of Dorset as were off. It is hoped the castle

:20:29. > :20:33.will become the hub of activities here, with money raised through the

:20:33. > :20:42.centre being ploughed back into the country park.

:20:42. > :20:46.Onto sport, and another day of drama at Portsmouth Football Club.

:20:46. > :20:52.Tony Husband has all the details. This is a day that some Portsmouth

:20:52. > :20:57.fans felt was coming as soon as their owner hit financial problems

:20:57. > :21:00.and the headlines about 10 days ago due to allegations about money

:21:01. > :21:05.laundering at a Lithuanian bank he was a shareholder in, it was felt

:21:05. > :21:09.this could lead to problems for Portsmouth because he is the main

:21:09. > :21:13.backer of Convers Sports Initiative. Their own Portsmouth and today that

:21:13. > :21:17.holding company, it was confirmed, have gone into administration.

:21:17. > :21:21.Portsmouth saying in a statement this afternoon they, as a football

:21:21. > :21:24.club, are not in administration. They have money in the bank at the

:21:24. > :21:27.moment and can operate in the absence of major funds, however

:21:28. > :21:31.they did acknowledge they will now have to work in the long term to

:21:31. > :21:35.find investment to keep the club and did football going in

:21:35. > :21:38.Portsmouth. It is remarkable life find themselves back in this

:21:38. > :21:44.situation again. Portsmouth themselves were in administration

:21:44. > :21:47.last year, they came out just over a year ago, CSI bought them in

:21:47. > :21:52.August, there were high hopes for the future, but all of those

:21:52. > :22:00.problems are now coming back to haunt Portsmouth in direct it. The

:22:00. > :22:08.administrator appointed to look after CSI's affairs, and to find a

:22:08. > :22:14.buyer for all of their affairs including Portsmouth, is now back.

:22:14. > :22:18.A former owner took out a mortgage over CSI's assets, including

:22:18. > :22:21.Portsmouth, as he became uneasy about future payments due to him

:22:21. > :22:25.following the sale in the summer. Terrible times for the fans, they

:22:25. > :22:29.cannot believe this is happening again and they are now calling for

:22:29. > :22:32.a real say in what happens next. Portsmouth's fans have been let

:22:32. > :22:36.down at every juncture by the authorities, the FA and the

:22:36. > :22:40.Football League have put regulations in place to try to

:22:40. > :22:44.protect football clubs and fans and have been patently lacking, so I

:22:44. > :22:47.think we have been let down and it is time for the fans to be brought

:22:47. > :22:51.into this process because, let's be fair, we could not have done a

:22:51. > :22:57.worse job of running puts more -- Reading Portsmouth Football Club,

:22:57. > :23:01.could we? Let still to run expert. What does this mean for the club?

:23:01. > :23:05.It means we are back to where we were a year ago, desperately

:23:05. > :23:08.looking for a buyer with enough money to put into the club, not

:23:08. > :23:13.only for day-to-day operating costs, which we now are quite high, but to

:23:13. > :23:17.make sure payments for the old company's creditors are being met.

:23:17. > :23:20.The Football League are yet to decide whether 10 points will come

:23:20. > :23:26.off. We don't know whether Portsmouth will be in

:23:26. > :23:30.administration themselves come as a pose. It is similar to Southampton,

:23:30. > :23:35.the parent company have gone into administration. CSI owns a number

:23:35. > :23:39.of different businesses, not just the football club. What will the

:23:39. > :23:43.creditors be saying? It was always going to be a long-term project to

:23:43. > :23:48.get any money back but we are still dependent on somebody coming back

:23:48. > :23:58.into the club, winning to put some money in but also -- but also make

:23:58. > :23:58.

:23:58. > :24:08.payments to us. I am sure we will talk again.

:24:08. > :24:09.

:24:09. > :24:13.Thank you. Southampton failed to score for the

:24:13. > :24:19.first time this season on Saturday. And looking to extend their winning

:24:19. > :24:24.run at 10-21 games in all competitions after that defeat. On

:24:24. > :24:29.to Reading and Brighton, in action tonight. Brighten up again

:24:29. > :24:36.starboard, looking for a third win in four games, buoyed by Saturday's

:24:36. > :24:40.when. Derby have lost their last four heading into this clash.

:24:40. > :24:47.Reading face and inform Peter gritting, searching for some

:24:47. > :24:52.consistency. Sally, a remarkable saga here, I

:24:52. > :24:57.think there will be some more twists and turns on the way.

:24:57. > :25:02.Thank you, 10 it. We will follow that as it develops in the coming

:25:02. > :25:06.days and weeks -- thank you, Tony. Let's go straight on to the weather.

:25:06. > :25:16.The whole of the West Coast was battered to death. Very wild

:25:16. > :25:16.

:25:17. > :25:22.weather, particularly in the North We started on a mild-mannered but

:25:22. > :25:26.things went downhill rapidly. The strongest wind recorded today was

:25:26. > :25:31.in Southampton, 52 miles an hour, but even elsewhere over 30 miles an

:25:31. > :25:34.hour. The winds are still with us but not as strong overnight. It is

:25:34. > :25:40.breezy and we have lost the rain but there are still showers

:25:40. > :25:44.bubbling up, which will arrive fairly soon. The showers are

:25:44. > :25:48.particularly focusing along the coastal stretch and western parts

:25:48. > :25:57.of the region. By the end of the night it is going to be colder the

:25:57. > :26:01.further north you happen to be but still fairly mild further north.

:26:01. > :26:05.Further inland tomorrow you can see dry and bright conditions. Windy

:26:05. > :26:09.throughout the day and by the afternoon it is clouding over.

:26:09. > :26:14.After that, it is downhill once again they have -- because we have

:26:14. > :26:19.the next lot of rain pushing in by the evening. For many parts in the

:26:19. > :26:23.West, we will see the first pulses of rain. It will be heavy, and into

:26:23. > :26:27.Thursday morning rather wet and windy conditions, perhaps not as

:26:27. > :26:30.aggressive as today, but still fairly impressive. By Thursday

:26:30. > :26:36.morning it is going to be easing the way, leaving behind sunshine

:26:36. > :26:42.and showers. It will feel colder threes Thursday and Friday is a

:26:42. > :26:47.difficult -- typical early winter's day. Sunshine, but it will be

:26:47. > :26:51.chilly. Into Saturday, wet and windy again. We have a warm sector

:26:51. > :26:55.giving us a little bit on this temperatures but certainly very

:26:55. > :27:00.windy and with some rain for Saturday morning. By Sunday,

:27:00. > :27:04.hopefully, a brighter scene, but to recap, for Wednesday, we lose the

:27:04. > :27:09.showers and for much of the morning we have dry, bright conditions but

:27:09. > :27:14.on Thursday some heavy rain, very strong winds. Friday, the winds are

:27:14. > :27:22.lighter, a cold or end to the week. Saturday, rain and wind once again

:27:22. > :27:26.Those public sector strikes, we want to hear from you tomorrow,

:27:26. > :27:32.whatever your view is on this and whatever you are doing. Let us know
