:00:08. > :00:15.Welcome to South Today. Tonight... In court. The former Portsmouth

:00:15. > :00:20.manager Harry Redknapp appears to face accusations of tax evasion.

:00:20. > :00:24.The waiting game. 3,000 workers wonder what is next for BAE Systems

:00:24. > :00:29.in Portsmouth. How low can it go? A winter drought causes concern

:00:29. > :00:35.across the South. And what will it mean for the Royals, as Sir John

:00:35. > :00:45.sells his controlling share to the Russians? For the club, the fans

:00:45. > :00:50.

:00:50. > :00:54.and everybody at the club, this is Former Portsmouth manager Harry

:00:54. > :01:01.Redknapp has appeared in court at the start of his trial for alleged

:01:01. > :01:04.tax evasion. The court heard that during his time at the club, he

:01:04. > :01:06.received almost $300,000, which he had no intention of declaring for

:01:06. > :01:13.tax purposes. Mr Redknapp and former Portsmouth chairman Milan

:01:13. > :01:16.Manderic deny charges of cheating the public revenue. Before we came

:01:16. > :01:21.on air, I spoke to our correspondent James Pearce. I began

:01:21. > :01:24.by asking him what happened in court. First of all this morning we

:01:24. > :01:28.had the selection of the jury. They were told if they had football

:01:28. > :01:33.prejudice which states said might affect their judgment and that they

:01:33. > :01:37.must declare them. A Tottenham fan for example would have been ruled

:01:37. > :01:41.out. Then at the prosecution started outlining the case,

:01:41. > :01:45.explaining to the jury how they have accused Harry Redknapp of

:01:45. > :01:51.going to Monaco and setting up a Mothercare bank account which he

:01:51. > :01:58.did not declare for four years to the authorities. -- Monaco bank

:01:58. > :02:04.account. They said it was named after his dog, Rose and 1947, the

:02:05. > :02:09.year of his berth. We why was it set up? What the prosecution said

:02:09. > :02:14.was that initially when he was at Portsmouth, he was Director Of

:02:14. > :02:21.Football. As director, he was entitled to take 10% of the prophet

:02:21. > :02:27.of any player transfers. But then he was manager. Then it was reduced

:02:28. > :02:34.to 5%. The jury were told Peter Crouch had been bought for 1.25

:02:34. > :02:40.million and sold for 4.5 million. But instead of the 5% share, it was

:02:40. > :02:44.double that amount. The owner of Portsmouth had put a similar amount

:02:44. > :02:50.of money, in dollars into the Monaco back account, the jury was

:02:50. > :02:54.Harry Redknapp and Milan Manderic deny the charges and the trial

:02:54. > :02:57.continues. A homeless man has been convicted of murdering a terminally

:02:57. > :03:01.ill friend who gave him a place to stay. David Sole and his girlfriend

:03:01. > :03:04.were living at Jon Ellison's flat in Brighton last April, when he was

:03:04. > :03:07.found beaten to death. David Sole had blamed the murder on his

:03:08. > :03:10.partner but today was sentenced to life imprisonment. His partner

:03:10. > :03:13.Denise Antonia was sentenced to five years for assisting an

:03:13. > :03:15.offender. Danielle Glavin has been following the case and joins us

:03:15. > :03:24.from our Brighton studio. The victim Jon Ellison was vulnerable

:03:24. > :03:29.man, wasn't he? He was very vulnerable. He lived in supported

:03:30. > :03:34.housing in Brighton. He had carers checking on him. He was very

:03:34. > :03:39.welcoming, the court was told. That they could come and stay and do

:03:39. > :03:43.what they liked. David Sole and Denise Antonia stayed with him last

:03:43. > :03:50.April and admit that he was in the -- a stake in the fact when he was

:03:50. > :03:54.attacked. They had the murder weapon with them and Denise Antonia

:03:54. > :04:00.later threw it away. They ended up in Winchester, where they were both

:04:00. > :04:05.arrested. Denise Antonia told the police they had been a row that

:04:05. > :04:09.night. She said David Sole had punched a in the pace and Jon

:04:09. > :04:16.Ellison had tried to stop them and he got a bat and told him to leave

:04:16. > :04:20.her alone. But David Sole, she said, lashed out. He said, allegedly, I

:04:20. > :04:25.will finish him off but the jury did not believe that. What have the

:04:25. > :04:29.family said? After the verdict, his brothers released a statement

:04:29. > :04:32.saying that they had never understood his way of life. But

:04:32. > :04:38.they kept in contact with him and that they were devastated when they

:04:38. > :04:42.heard about his murder. They said he was a kind and gentle spirit and

:04:42. > :04:46.that they wished in peace and eternal rest. Police had said it

:04:46. > :04:54.had been heeded the court case to investigate but that they would

:04:54. > :04:57.Trade unions and MPs are urging BAE systems to clarify the future of

:04:57. > :05:00.its shipyard in Portsmouth. It follows the start of a review of

:05:00. > :05:02.the company's operations. BAE employs around 1,500 people in its

:05:02. > :05:05.Portsmouth shipyard - and another 1,500 in support and maintenance

:05:05. > :05:14.roles in the naval dockyard. The company says no decisions have been

:05:14. > :05:18.There have been a series of newspaper headlines about the

:05:18. > :05:22.shipyard in Portsmouth, sparked by the appointment of external

:05:22. > :05:28.consultants by the company to look at maritime operations. The company

:05:28. > :05:32.has about 3,000 staff in Portsmouth. Half are busy constructing sections

:05:32. > :05:38.of aircraft carriers and the rest maintain warships. Work on the

:05:38. > :05:44.aircraft carriers will keep them busy until 2016. After that, the

:05:44. > :05:48.company is expected to get orders for the new Type 26 frigates.

:05:48. > :05:53.Confirmation is wanted as soon as possible for that work. They have

:05:53. > :05:57.to come out and place these orders. The government needs to support

:05:58. > :06:02.that and they need to bring out the security that the employees of the

:06:02. > :06:05.dockyard are seeking. The company said decisions have not been made

:06:05. > :06:10.about the future of the shipyard in Portsmouth and nobody from the

:06:10. > :06:14.company has been available for interview. One local MP said she is

:06:14. > :06:19.keeping a close watch on developments. We should be

:06:19. > :06:24.concerned about it but not worried. I would want to Wishaw workers in

:06:24. > :06:30.Portsmouth that this is the start of the consultation. -- reassured.

:06:30. > :06:35.A lot of speculation is unfounded. They are at the start of the review.

:06:35. > :06:39.The controversy included this situation in the dockyard when a

:06:39. > :06:47.ship set sail for the Middle East. The planned deployment comes as

:06:47. > :06:50.tensions continue to escalate about A 51 year-old man has appeared

:06:50. > :06:53.before Weymouth magistrates after a fuel tanker crashed into his wife's

:06:53. > :06:55.house which then caught fire. Hugh Billington, of no fixed abode, has

:06:55. > :06:59.been charged with arson with intent to endanger life, assault by

:06:59. > :07:05.beating and theft. The incident happened at Wool in Dorset on

:07:05. > :07:07.Friday. His wife Christine escaped unhurt. He has been remanded in

:07:07. > :07:17.custody and will appear at Dorchester Crown Court at the end

:07:20. > :07:24.of January. A prison officer has described to a court the moments a

:07:24. > :07:27.riot started at Ford Open Prison on New Year's Day last year. Seven men

:07:27. > :07:29.are on trial accused of taking part in the disturbance. The jury has

:07:29. > :07:34.heard that staff were threatened and buildings torched causing more

:07:34. > :07:39.than �5 million of damage. The prison officer in charge described

:07:39. > :07:43.how he and his colleagues were confronted by a group of inmates.

:07:43. > :07:47.He said prisoners came out of billets to see in the new year and

:07:47. > :07:53.that there was not a difficulty at first. Next, alarms went off and he

:07:53. > :07:56.told the jury he had men making monkey noises. He said about 40

:07:56. > :08:03.offenders emerged and they were masked and some were armed. There

:08:03. > :08:08.were shouts of Kilby screws, let's do them. He said he felt vulnerable.

:08:08. > :08:11.They jeered and threatened to kill officers. He said it was better to

:08:11. > :08:18.walk away normally downturn had run away as that could have accelerated

:08:18. > :08:21.the problems. Prison staff withdrew. They were just six on duty. Two

:08:21. > :08:27.were prison officers and the rest support up as us. Within half an

:08:27. > :08:32.hour, prisoners taking control of the prison ran a mark over the

:08:32. > :08:35.course of 12 hours but some inmates tried to put out fires. It is the

:08:35. > :08:40.prosecution case that there was tension in the air leading up to

:08:40. > :08:46.the bright because prison staff had protested inmate or alcohol. Seven

:08:46. > :08:50.men serving sentences are now on trial at Hove Crown Court. They are

:08:50. > :08:55.charged with mutiny and violent disorder. All but one are accused

:08:55. > :09:00.of arson. They all deny the charges. Apart from Thomas Reagan seen here,

:09:00. > :09:09.who pleaded guilty to violent disorder. Another man, the Roberts,

:09:09. > :09:14.Councils across the South have been announcing how much they intend to

:09:14. > :09:17.put up council tax bills next year. Their budgets are under pressure

:09:17. > :09:21.after cuts in the amount they receive from central government, so

:09:21. > :09:24.will they pass that on to us, or try to find further savings? Our

:09:24. > :09:33.Political Editor Peter Henley is with me. This year we had a freeze

:09:33. > :09:37.in bills, how does it look for next year? Let's wind the clock back a

:09:37. > :09:40.little bit. We've gone from routine increases in bills of 10% in 2003/4

:09:40. > :09:43.- which caused such annoyance that central government stepped in with

:09:43. > :09:47.capping and then offering extra money if they kept rises down which

:09:47. > :09:49.led to a freeze last year - but now the drastic cuts in all sorts of

:09:49. > :09:55.grants means some councils are considering rises rather than cut

:09:55. > :10:02.services. Then the government came in with capping and so on. One

:10:02. > :10:06.place where it looks like that might happen is Brighton. This is

:10:06. > :10:10.the first council with the Green Party in charge. Unions like that

:10:10. > :10:18.but Labour and the Conservatives do not agree. What do people think? We

:10:18. > :10:22.took a councillor in charge to find out. We are asking for 3.5 %.

:10:22. > :10:30.is not much, really. We have got other things going up and we do not

:10:30. > :10:38.get paid any more. That is not the worst. No, not really. It is still

:10:38. > :10:42.out of order. You do not listen anyway. A cave. All right. We are

:10:42. > :10:46.trying to survive as a business and an individual at a difficult time.

:10:46. > :10:51.You wonder what they are spending the money on hand it is not

:10:51. > :10:54.particularly clear. That is a difficulty. We have published the

:10:54. > :11:01.most detailed budget information ever but unless you have got the

:11:01. > :11:05.time had interest... Will any other bills rise as much as Brighton?

:11:05. > :11:10.do not think so. I will think that they will be the biggest. This is a

:11:10. > :11:13.complicated system. I think Reading will be freezing. A lot of

:11:13. > :11:18.Conservative authorities are freezing as well. Some charges are

:11:18. > :11:28.going up. �60 for green waste collection. Everybody will have to

:11:28. > :11:35.

:11:35. > :11:37.consult next year and we could have The former Conservative member of

:11:37. > :11:40.parliament, David Atkinson, has died from cancer. He represented

:11:40. > :11:42.Bournemouth East at Westminster for twenty eight years between 1977 and

:11:42. > :11:45.2005. Before his parliamentary career, he was a director of his

:11:45. > :11:48.family's car sales business and was the national chairman of the young

:11:48. > :11:51.conservatives. It's been a dry autumn and the few days of rain

:11:51. > :11:54.we've had so far this winter haven't been enough. Many areas in

:11:54. > :11:57.the South are experiencing drought conditions, usually associated with

:11:57. > :11:59.a long hot summer. Some rivers and reservoirs are at an all-time low

:11:59. > :12:04.and one fishing club is so concerned it's considering its

:12:04. > :12:10.future. For more than 30 years, Terry has fished at the Andover

:12:10. > :12:15.Angling Club. But lack of rain is causing problems. The weather that

:12:15. > :12:19.normally feeds the pond is running late. Consequently it would get

:12:19. > :12:25.very low and the oxygen would be depleted. It cannot then sustain

:12:25. > :12:33.light. The Environment Agency would on an emergency basis take the fish

:12:33. > :12:42.out. At the moment it is about 4 ft down on what it should be. It is

:12:45. > :12:50.authorities are hoping for rain and are asking for customers to do

:12:50. > :12:55.their bit. We are asking people to conserve water and use it wisely.

:12:55. > :13:00.We are asking customers to do a bit as well. Think about how you use

:13:00. > :13:07.water. Take a shorter shower. News 10 litres. Turn the tap off when

:13:07. > :13:11.you brush your teeth. Every bit helps. We have got to share around.

:13:11. > :13:18.If the dry conditions continue, preparations have been made to move

:13:22. > :13:28.any reason for people to join an angling club. -- with fish taken

:13:54. > :13:59.recognised for her calm actions. I did not think about anything else.

:13:59. > :14:05.I thought, something is wrong, I need to do something. I was the

:14:05. > :14:09.only one in the house. It had to be me that saved her life. I did not

:14:20. > :14:24.forecast. It will be dry and sunny this week. But there will also be

:14:24. > :14:32.wet and windy days. We are speaking to Sir John Madejski on his hopes

:14:33. > :14:36.for the future of Reading Football Club.

:14:36. > :14:40.The broadcaster Sandi Toksvig has been appointed as the new

:14:40. > :14:44.Chancellor of Portsmouth University. Comedian, author and a presenter

:14:55. > :14:58.It should be the busiest time of year for them but guest home owners

:14:58. > :15:02.in Weymouth are complaining their bookings for the Olympic period are

:15:02. > :15:06.significantly down. They say transport restrictions and

:15:06. > :15:10.expectations of big crowds are keeping traditional holidaymakers

:15:10. > :15:16.away. Dave Price owns the Molyneux. He has kept charges the same as

:15:16. > :15:23.last year but he fears tourists may not fear -- when a flock to the

:15:23. > :15:29.seaside town. Cold and quiet. The trouble is, guest house owners are

:15:29. > :15:34.worried it will be carried -- quiet in the middle of summer. The

:15:34. > :15:39.Molyneux reckons there bookings for the Olympic period are half of what

:15:39. > :15:44.they normally L4 stop the other 40 guesthouses in the association are

:15:44. > :15:48.reporting similar falls. There is a big misconception in the public

:15:48. > :15:52.that all the hotels and restaurants in Weymouth are going to make a

:15:52. > :15:56.fortune. He is the summer holidays, it is peak season. If these

:15:56. > :16:04.establishments do not make the money during that period, they will

:16:04. > :16:06.be in trouble. We have seen a number of guesthouses go. But the

:16:06. > :16:11.Olympic organisers are unsympathetic, saying many hotels

:16:11. > :16:14.in the area a her are actually very busy, with bookings was a bully for

:16:14. > :16:18.the Olympics. They say instead of worrying about additional visitors,

:16:18. > :16:22.the guesthouses should target the Olympic tourists instead. Perhaps

:16:22. > :16:27.they are used to taking bookings for five days. I would suggest

:16:27. > :16:33.people coming to the Olympic Games will want to come to stay overnight

:16:33. > :16:40.or for two nights. Been is a different market. I would suggest

:16:40. > :16:45.looking at the offer. -- it is a different market. During the

:16:45. > :16:49.Olympics, this road will be closed to traffic for 12 hours a day. This

:16:49. > :16:54.has also prompted complaints. The guesthouse owners are worried about

:16:54. > :16:59.access for their customers. But special arrangements can be made if

:16:59. > :17:03.necessary. Traditional Dorset varieties of

:17:03. > :17:07.apple trees are being reintroduced by the National Trust. Over the

:17:07. > :17:11.weekend, volunteers have been helping to planned 40 trees. The

:17:11. > :17:16.project is being funded by donations from people who have paid

:17:16. > :17:20.to dedicate some of the trees in memory of loved ones. The nice part

:17:20. > :17:27.of it is, the families, through their donations, have paid for all

:17:27. > :17:31.of this as a community project. They put the trees in and you end

:17:31. > :17:36.up with a really nice area, especially when you drive into the

:17:36. > :17:42.village. Now the sport. Let us start with

:17:42. > :17:46.the Royals. A bit of a change on the way. The end of an era. It has

:17:46. > :17:51.been a long search by Sir John Madejski, looking to find somebody

:17:51. > :17:55.to invest in the club. He says he has got the right deal. He told us

:17:55. > :17:58.he is confident the club can prosper with a new majority owner.

:17:58. > :18:03.Thames Sports Investment, founded by a Russian businessman, is said

:18:03. > :18:07.to live up to its name and invest money this month to strengthen the

:18:07. > :18:12.Royals team. It is a symbolic moment of change after more than

:18:12. > :18:16.two decades in which one man has built Reading from the bottom up.

:18:16. > :18:21.Sir John Madejski has been patient in waiting for the right buyer for

:18:21. > :18:26.Reading Football Club. He believes he has found him. I believe we have

:18:26. > :18:31.a fantastic partnership which can really take Reading further to the

:18:31. > :18:34.promised land and stay there. For Reading Football Club, for the fans

:18:34. > :18:43.and indeed everybody at the Football Club, this is the dream

:18:43. > :18:49.ticket. After 21 years, the change brought homes -- trepidation and

:18:49. > :18:54.praise alike. The chairman, he is happy with the deal, he has said it

:18:54. > :18:59.is right. I am a bit worried about being taken over by a rich Russian

:18:59. > :19:04.but what can you do? It is an ambition to get into the Premier

:19:04. > :19:08.League. You have to change. A bit of investment, we should be up

:19:08. > :19:13.there soon. Sir John Madejski is at pains to point out no deal is

:19:13. > :19:18.finalised. He is keen to point out the Russian made his fortune in

:19:18. > :19:24.paper manufacturing and speaks for himself. A until it is a deal, I do

:19:24. > :19:31.not think he wants people to know much about him. The time to

:19:31. > :19:37.celebrate, with time to get enthusiastic. A smooth transition

:19:37. > :19:42.is planned. Sir John Madejski stays imposed until 2013. Company that

:19:42. > :19:48.will be in charge. They are coming in and they will strengthen the

:19:48. > :19:52.squad. -- Thames Sports Investment. I think the most important people

:19:52. > :19:58.who are the fans and I think it is very important the fans get behind

:19:58. > :20:02.ready now. If Thames Sports Investment said no changes would be

:20:02. > :20:06.made to management. This is a sale that seems likely to cross the

:20:06. > :20:14.finishing line. Lead us talk to the former Reading

:20:14. > :20:18.captain. A big weekend of change. massive weekend. Is just the

:20:18. > :20:24.prelude to change. It is Sir John Madejski announcing the people he

:20:24. > :20:29.was looking for. People with deep pockets that can take the club

:20:29. > :20:33.forward. He has a particularly good relationship with the players.

:20:33. > :20:38.wants to know what is going on. He wants to know what is in their

:20:38. > :20:43.minds. Players are vital. They talk to him all the time. They made sure

:20:43. > :20:48.his club is run the way they wanted to be done. I can't help thinking,

:20:48. > :20:52.is there an element of sadness with him wanting to do this? I think

:20:52. > :20:57.there will be. He has been there for so long. If you look at Elm

:20:57. > :21:01.Park, where we came from, the stadium with his name on it, it is

:21:01. > :21:06.a beautiful place. I think 20 hands over the keys, as it were, there

:21:06. > :21:10.will be a tear in his eye. -- I think when he hands over their keys.

:21:10. > :21:14.That will bring pressure. How do you think players will think about
