Hello, I'm Sally Taylor. Welcome to South Today. | :00:01. | :00:05. | |
In tonight's programme: A crackdown on a Polish drug craze which has | :00:05. | :00:11. | |
arrived in the south. Police seize over the counter medicine. | :00:11. | :00:15. | |
Fighting to clear his name. The Dorset businessman who's now | :00:15. | :00:23. | |
returning to Hungary where he was imprisoned. My son has been | :00:23. | :00:29. | |
investigated, extradited, persecuted, tortured and prosecuted. | :00:29. | :00:37. | |
Tony Husband will have all the sport. Including the dressing room | :00:37. | :00:41. | |
visit here at Bournemouth that caused national headlines. | :00:41. | :00:43. | |
And animators of the future. The Bournemouth students celebrating | :00:43. | :00:51. | |
their role in the Oscars. I was with all of my friends saying, it | :00:51. | :00:56. | |
is this all some effect. And they are saying, I'll shut up you are | :00:56. | :01:02. | |
Health officials and police have been raiding shops in Southampton | :01:03. | :01:08. | |
to crack down on illegal medication linked to a European drug craze. | :01:08. | :01:10. | |
This is what they've been removing - these sachets, which are | :01:10. | :01:15. | |
manufactured in Poland. This looks perfectly ordinary and used | :01:15. | :01:19. | |
properly, it's a treatment for inflamed skin. But as we | :01:19. | :01:21. | |
exclusively revealed last month on South Today, teenagers in | :01:21. | :01:23. | |
Southampton have been extracting an active ingredient from the sachets | :01:23. | :01:33. | |
in order to get high. Tristan Pascoe has this report. | :01:33. | :01:37. | |
The first evidence of this drug craze coming to Britain was a spate | :01:37. | :01:42. | |
of vandalism here at Southampton's old cemetery. Among the rubbish, | :01:42. | :01:48. | |
was the packaging for a Polish medicine. It is an anti- | :01:48. | :01:52. | |
inflammatory. After reports that Polish teenagers were misusing the | :01:52. | :01:57. | |
chemicals to get high, the authorities decided to take action. | :01:57. | :02:02. | |
Trading standards officers conducted raids on several stores | :02:02. | :02:06. | |
and Southampton this morning seizing stocks of the product at | :02:06. | :02:11. | |
want shop. Because it is labelled in Polish, people who get hold of | :02:11. | :02:16. | |
it won't be aware of what the ingredients are. If they are | :02:16. | :02:22. | |
tempted to abuse it, there will be all sorts of problems. Used for its | :02:22. | :02:27. | |
intended purpose, the product which contains benzydamine is perfectly | :02:27. | :02:32. | |
safe. News that teenagers were abusing it caused concern in the | :02:32. | :02:37. | |
Polish community. I was shocked because it was used for teenager it | :02:37. | :02:42. | |
so I was really surprised somebody can sell them these products. For | :02:42. | :02:47. | |
me, the first reaction was really surprise and shock. Staff at a | :02:47. | :02:52. | |
local Polish newspaper were also surprised. | :02:52. | :02:56. | |
A lot of Polish families, especially those with the kids, | :02:56. | :03:00. | |
were shaken by this story because it is a product that is available | :03:00. | :03:06. | |
from the shops. So it was quite surprising to know that the product | :03:06. | :03:11. | |
has been used for these sorts of purposes. Authorities say it is | :03:11. | :03:16. | |
illegal to sell in the UK and are telling retailers if they continue, | :03:16. | :03:19. | |
they will face prosecution. And our reporter Tristan Pascoe | :03:20. | :03:22. | |
joins me now. Tristan - these sachets from Poland aren't actually | :03:22. | :03:24. | |
harmful in themselves? Not if used for it's intended | :03:25. | :03:29. | |
purpose. It's an anti-inflammatory product used by women. It comes in | :03:29. | :03:32. | |
sachets that can be made up into a watery solution for topical | :03:32. | :03:34. | |
application. In Poland, where it's manufactured, its legal, sold over | :03:34. | :03:37. | |
counter and doesn't need a prescription. But it's not legal to | :03:37. | :03:40. | |
sell it here. Even though the active ingredient is licensed to be | :03:40. | :03:43. | |
used in other products in the UK including mouthwashes, lozenges, | :03:43. | :03:48. | |
mouth spray and cream. And drug addicts realised this | :03:48. | :03:54. | |
medication contained an ingredient that they could use to get high? | :03:54. | :03:55. | |
Yes, benzydamine hydrochloride, it's thought teenagers using it | :03:56. | :04:02. | |
carried out vandalism in the city. Drug addicts have shared | :04:02. | :04:05. | |
information on how to extract that chemical and swallow it to | :04:05. | :04:08. | |
experience hallucinations.This is what some of the users have been | :04:08. | :04:14. | |
saying. Benzydamine is far from "nice". It | :04:14. | :04:24. | |
:04:24. | :04:26. | ||
leaves you pale, shaky and effects kicked in. A magnificent | :04:26. | :04:28. | |
visual show. The taste was the most disgusting I | :04:29. | :04:31. | |
have ever felt and I was almost sick a few times. | :04:31. | :04:34. | |
So now it will be much harder to So now it will be much harder to | :04:34. | :04:35. | |
get hold of? Well it's still a relatively | :04:35. | :04:38. | |
unknown drug although there have been problems with its misuse in | :04:38. | :04:40. | |
Poland, Romania and Brazil. It's thought that Southampton was the | :04:41. | :04:44. | |
first reported case in the UK. Police have said they are delighted | :04:44. | :04:47. | |
with the seizure and removal of the product from one store today and | :04:48. | :04:50. | |
the authorities are reminding retailers that it's illegal to sell | :04:50. | :04:53. | |
it here so it should be disappearing from the shelves of | :04:53. | :04:57. | |
Polish stores across the South as a result of today's raids. | :04:57. | :05:00. | |
The Home Secretary, Theresa May, has been given a briefing on | :05:00. | :05:03. | |
security at the Olympic rowing and canoe sprint venue at Dorney. | :05:04. | :05:06. | |
Policing the games this summer will be the biggest peace-time operation | :05:06. | :05:09. | |
ever undertaken by the Thames Valley force. Up to 30,000 | :05:09. | :05:13. | |
spectators are due at the venue each day. The lake itself is right | :05:13. | :05:21. | |
on the doorstep of Theresa May's Berkshire constituency. An enormous | :05:21. | :05:25. | |
amount of planning has gone into security at this venue and all the | :05:25. | :05:29. | |
Olympic venues. Planning for Olympic security started before the | :05:29. | :05:34. | |
bid was one in 2005 and has continued ever since. What we want | :05:35. | :05:39. | |
is to ensure that people can come to the Olympics and to the events | :05:39. | :05:44. | |
here and can enjoy a great sporting event and will be saved and Secure. | :05:44. | :05:46. | |
It's been called a massive injustice. A Dorset businessman | :05:46. | :05:49. | |
held in a Hungarian jail for several months without charge. Now | :05:49. | :05:52. | |
Michael Turner is having to return to Budapest to face the authorities | :05:52. | :05:55. | |
again. The events date back to 2005, when the marketing timeshare | :05:55. | :05:58. | |
venture run by Michael and his partner collapsed. They allegedly | :05:58. | :06:00. | |
owed creditors around �18,000 in Hungary, but decided to come back | :06:00. | :06:07. | |
to the UK. In 2009 the Hungarian authorities caught up with them. | :06:07. | :06:11. | |
The pair were extradited to Hungary under a European Arrest Warrant. | :06:11. | :06:14. | |
They were held in a jail in Budapest for months without charge | :06:14. | :06:18. | |
then released with no explanation. Now, three years later, Michael has | :06:18. | :06:22. | |
been told he must return to Budapest to face charges of fraud. | :06:22. | :06:25. | |
Our Home Affairs Correspondent Alex Forsyth caught up with him at Luton | :06:25. | :06:33. | |
airport. Heading to Hungary, but for Michael | :06:33. | :06:38. | |
Tanner, the journey is an anxious one. Three years ago he spent four | :06:38. | :06:41. | |
months imprisoned there before being charged with any crime. | :06:41. | :06:45. | |
was terrible. They take everything away from year and giving little | :06:46. | :06:50. | |
contact with the outside world. They lock you in a cell for 23 | :06:50. | :06:54. | |
hours a day. Tell me how you are feeling about going back? I am very | :06:55. | :07:00. | |
anxious. Michael and his business partner ran a timeshare marketing | :07:00. | :07:05. | |
business in Budapest which failed. Allegedly leaving creditors out of | :07:05. | :07:09. | |
pocket. Four years later, authorities used the European | :07:09. | :07:13. | |
arrest warrant to extradite them for fraud. They were not charged | :07:14. | :07:18. | |
but spent months in a Hungarian jail. After a high-profile campaign | :07:18. | :07:23. | |
they were freed. My son has been investigated, imprisoned, tortured | :07:23. | :07:27. | |
and prosecuted in a process that has taken longer than that at | :07:27. | :07:33. | |
Nuremberg. It is a disgrace. He has been totally let on by the British | :07:33. | :07:38. | |
government. Three years later, Michael is facing charges of fraud | :07:38. | :07:42. | |
and heading back to Budapest for the start of his trial. His MP says | :07:42. | :07:45. | |
the case should never have gone this far. | :07:46. | :07:50. | |
This case has been one massive injustice. This charge has been | :07:50. | :07:55. | |
pursuing him now for some years and the pressure on him and his family | :07:55. | :07:59. | |
financially, emotionally and physically have been enormous. | :08:00. | :08:03. | |
Home Office is considering its response to a review of UK | :08:03. | :08:08. | |
extradition arrangements. Campaigners want EU law improved. | :08:08. | :08:13. | |
People have been ripped from home, family, jobs, studies and shipped | :08:13. | :08:19. | |
off to another EU country when actually the prosecution is no | :08:19. | :08:24. | |
winning try already. We can't allow people to be extradited from the UK | :08:24. | :08:29. | |
in those circumstances. Michael's family had his journey will soon be | :08:29. | :08:33. | |
over. Tensions over the sovereignty of | :08:33. | :08:35. | |
the Falkland Islands have taken another twist, with the Argentinian | :08:35. | :08:38. | |
authorities banning a Southampton based cruise ship from entering one | :08:38. | :08:42. | |
of its ports. Around 700 passengers on the P&O ship Adonia were told | :08:43. | :08:46. | |
the news this morning. They were told the Adonia, and another cruise | :08:46. | :08:49. | |
ship the Star Princess, were being turned away because they had | :08:49. | :08:54. | |
visited the Falklands a few days ago. Steve Humphrey is with me. | :08:54. | :08:57. | |
Steve another spat over the islands then? | :08:57. | :08:59. | |
Yes, this is the latest fallout from the continuing dispute between | :08:59. | :09:06. | |
the UK and Argentina over the Falklands. | :09:06. | :09:09. | |
And at the centre of the latest arguments is the Southampton P and | :09:09. | :09:13. | |
O cruise ship Adonia - which left in January for an 87 day voyage to | :09:13. | :09:17. | |
South American. She carries around 700 people. | :09:17. | :09:21. | |
Why stop the Adonia going into port though? | :09:21. | :09:24. | |
Well simply to make a political point. What's interesting is that | :09:24. | :09:27. | |
Adonia had visited TWO ports in Argentina before going to Stanley. | :09:27. | :09:30. | |
Her route should then have taken her to Ushuaia in Argentina - and | :09:30. | :09:34. | |
then Puenta Arenas in Chile. Both Adonia and another cruise ship | :09:35. | :09:38. | |
- the Star Princess -- visited the Falklands on Saturday - for many of | :09:38. | :09:42. | |
the passengers it was a highlight of their trip. And for the | :09:42. | :09:46. | |
islanders - some very welcome tourist revenue. | :09:46. | :09:56. | |
And what about the long term impact? | :09:56. | :09:59. | |
One travel journalist Jane Archer who is on the Adonia says what's | :09:59. | :10:01. | |
happened could deter cruise companies from visiting the | :10:01. | :10:03. | |
Falklands. It could make it very difficult in | :10:03. | :10:08. | |
terms of itineraries because Argentina is a big country. If you | :10:08. | :10:14. | |
are circumnavigating South America, you really need to call in there. | :10:14. | :10:17. | |
So what is the Foreign Office saying? | :10:17. | :10:27. | |
:10:27. | :10:31. | ||
Well, the Foreign Office says its concerned. | :10:31. | :10:37. | |
Twin Sails was expected to open to traffic today, it did not. This | :10:37. | :10:41. | |
morning engineers were back at work. It has been long promise that the | :10:41. | :10:46. | |
crossing will unlock a large swathe of brownfield land in the area, but | :10:46. | :10:53. | |
there is little sign of any such regeneration getting off the ground. | :10:53. | :10:58. | |
The bridge is almost finished, but not quite. It was expected to open | :10:58. | :11:06. | |
to traffic today. In his 30 million blog project that has been talked | :11:06. | :11:09. | |
about for at least 30 years, there are a handful of last-minute | :11:09. | :11:15. | |
glitches. There is not a major problem, just | :11:15. | :11:19. | |
commissioning glitches. The borough don't want to accept the bridge as | :11:19. | :11:24. | |
highway before it is 100% complete. The bridge has been built in two | :11:24. | :11:28. | |
years. Poole hopes it will symbolise the town as clearly as | :11:28. | :11:33. | |
the spinnaker Tower represents Portsmouth. Over the weekend, | :11:33. | :11:38. | |
20,000 people walked across ahead of their opening. Alongside the | :11:38. | :11:45. | |
empty road, it land earmarked for regeneration is idle. Over the next | :11:45. | :11:51. | |
10 to 15 years, 2000 homes and 5000 jobs are promised as a result of | :11:51. | :11:55. | |
the new bridge. There are five sites for | :11:55. | :11:59. | |
regeneration close to the bridge. A planning application for one was | :11:59. | :12:04. | |
rejected last November, a second one is under way now, but the other | :12:04. | :12:10. | |
three could still be years away. The planning applications that are | :12:10. | :12:14. | |
coming forward showed an appetite for that kind of development around | :12:14. | :12:18. | |
such an iconic structure. I would say that within the next decade, | :12:18. | :12:23. | |
you will see this area of Poole being completely different. But it | :12:23. | :12:28. | |
might be taking a little longer than originally hoped? Obviously it | :12:28. | :12:33. | |
will because of the economic downturn. The official opening is | :12:33. | :12:37. | |
booked for March night. A few days later, the Princess Royal will | :12:37. | :12:44. | |
visit. The council is confident it will be ready by then. | :12:44. | :12:49. | |
Still to come this evening: Keeping it Street, a dancing lesson with a | :12:49. | :12:53. | |
difference. I may be hopeless, but these guys | :12:53. | :13:02. | |
are not and now they want to take their success one step further. | :13:02. | :13:06. | |
Alight inside out has the behind- the-scenes story of how Surrey | :13:06. | :13:11. | |
police called the husband-and-wife team behind a 100,000 pound | :13:11. | :13:15. | |
internet fraud. Daren and Tracey Grant tripped scores of people out | :13:16. | :13:21. | |
of their holidays at their villa in my yorker. The couple continued to | :13:21. | :13:25. | |
take multiple bookings despite knowing they had a long-term tenant | :13:25. | :13:34. | |
On certain weeks, they had up to 10 parties booked into the bowler, so | :13:34. | :13:40. | |
it was not just a case of making �2,750 per week. On one week in | :13:40. | :13:46. | |
August, you can multiply that by 10. You can see more on that this | :13:46. | :13:52. | |
evening at 7:30pm. Meryl Streep, Christopher Plummer, | :13:52. | :13:56. | |
The Artist were all winners last night at the Annual Academy Awards. | :13:56. | :14:00. | |
Of course, many thousands of people work behind the scenes to make a | :14:00. | :14:05. | |
successful film. The South has its own particular niche in the film -- | :14:05. | :14:10. | |
the field of computer animation. No fewer than 70 former students of | :14:10. | :14:14. | |
Bournemouth University's media school worked on this year's batch | :14:14. | :14:23. | |
of Oscar-nominated movies. They are screen icons, dressed to | :14:23. | :14:27. | |
impress, clutching a wards and hogging the headlines. But compared | :14:28. | :14:33. | |
to the old days, movie magic has a much broader definition. Take | :14:33. | :14:38. | |
Martin Scorsese's family adventure, with Oscar winning effects that | :14:38. | :14:42. | |
would not have been possible 10 years ago. Where do you learn to | :14:42. | :14:51. | |
create this particular brand of movie magic? In Bournemouth. Half | :14:51. | :14:55. | |
of our students are in computer games and that has been a stunning | :14:55. | :15:00. | |
success, and the others have gone into movies. These people work all | :15:00. | :15:04. | |
over the world. Today, students in the animation laboratories are | :15:04. | :15:08. | |
learning how to blend three- dimensional images on to two- | :15:08. | :15:13. | |
dimensional pictures. It needs creativity and lots of patience. | :15:13. | :15:18. | |
People work so hard on one thing for such a long time. You are | :15:18. | :15:25. | |
compressing your life into this one piece of work. I say to my friends, | :15:25. | :15:32. | |
"there is an awesome effect," and they say that I am reading the poem. | :15:32. | :15:42. | |
:15:42. | :15:44. | ||
By a bustier, this man got an Oscar and a BAFTA. -- last year. Seeing | :15:44. | :15:48. | |
their names in lights is really satisfying for us. Every year, we | :15:48. | :15:53. | |
get very excited. They have been teaching movie magic at Bournemouth | :15:53. | :15:58. | |
for more than 20 years and that is just -- that has just won at the | :15:58. | :16:07. | |
University its own education Oscar. Fabulous! How wonderful to be part | :16:07. | :16:12. | |
of an Oscar-nominated film, or one that has won an Oscar. We will see | :16:12. | :16:17. | |
those students in the future, I am sure. In sport, it is all about | :16:17. | :16:22. | |
dressing-room gossip. Not Tony's dressing room! This is | :16:22. | :16:26. | |
extraordinary. The dressing room visit heard all around the world, | :16:26. | :16:35. | |
you would say, on Saturday. No one is suggesting that anybody's wife | :16:35. | :16:37. | |
went into say what would happen in the second half, but what was | :16:37. | :16:41. | |
interesting was that there was a visit to a dressing room. You don't | :16:41. | :16:46. | |
have people visiting dressing rooms too often. Eddie Mitchell has | :16:46. | :16:50. | |
apologised for swearing on national radio and insisted that the half- | :16:50. | :16:53. | |
time address to his players from the wife of his Russian: There was | :16:53. | :17:00. | |
nothing more than a good-luck message. -- his Russian colleague's | :17:00. | :17:06. | |
wife. A football changing room is | :17:06. | :17:10. | |
considered by many to be sacred - the domain of only players and | :17:10. | :17:14. | |
management, particularly at half- time. But as Eddy Mitchell | :17:14. | :17:19. | |
explained on Saturday night, his colleague's wife made an impromptu | :17:19. | :17:25. | |
visit. I believe that she is entitled to express her opinion. I | :17:25. | :17:30. | |
feel that we are allowed to to filter out of frustration down to | :17:30. | :17:36. | |
the changing room and if we were 2- 0 up at half-time, we would not | :17:36. | :17:41. | |
have come down. With the story breaking on social media, while | :17:41. | :17:45. | |
fans and professionals expressed their astonishment, Mitchell went | :17:45. | :17:49. | |
on to Radio 5 Live and was involved in an angry exchange with the | :17:49. | :17:59. | |
:17:59. | :18:01. | ||
presenter Mark Chapman.? Eddie! Eddie! Eddie! Get rid of him.., I | :18:01. | :18:05. | |
don't care who you are. I am not having somebody coming on and | :18:05. | :18:08. | |
swearing three times when there are kids listening. He apologised on | :18:09. | :18:16. | |
Saturday and again today. What really happened? They all looked | :18:16. | :18:20. | |
very sad that the situation, which I can understand. If you are | :18:20. | :18:25. | |
walking past the doorway and poke your head round the door, you know, | :18:25. | :18:32. | |
maybe it is not done in many football clubs, if any. We are | :18:33. | :18:37. | |
allowed for everybody to join in. I saw no harm in it. Will it happen | :18:37. | :18:40. | |
again or should it not happen again? When we gain promotion to | :18:40. | :18:44. | |
the championship, I would have to be in the changing room either at | :18:44. | :18:47. | |
half-time or after, as long as we know we are going to the | :18:47. | :18:52. | |
championship. By partner's wife would feel the same. More from | :18:52. | :18:58. | |
Eddie Mitchell on BBC One at 11:05pm. They will also have all | :18:58. | :19:02. | |
the goals from the weekend action. Southampton are back at the top of | :19:02. | :19:06. | |
the championship after a hat-trick from Rickie Lambert saw them easing | :19:06. | :19:16. | |
past Watford. Another one came from the penalty spot. Southampton are | :19:16. | :19:21. | |
back to the top of the league. All the goals tonight. Reading secured | :19:21. | :19:24. | |
their 5th consecutive win at Middlesbrough and up to third. Here | :19:25. | :19:34. | |
:19:35. | :19:36. | ||
towards automatic promotion with a 5th win. They deserve their 2-0 win | :19:36. | :19:42. | |
at Middlesbrough. This set them on their way. This player added to his | :19:42. | :19:47. | |
collection of long-range goals from free-kicks to wrap up the win. | :19:47. | :19:51. | |
Brighton remain unbeaten in the league in 2012. This player | :19:51. | :19:57. | |
completed a fine at move against Ipswich. This player broke his goal | :19:57. | :20:02. | |
drought, scoring another two goals. It takes the sea goals up to seven, | :20:02. | :20:08. | |
level with Cardiff, who occupy the final play-off place. You have seen | :20:08. | :20:14. | |
the quality of our players. They took advantage of the opposition | :20:14. | :20:17. | |
and the situation. When you play like that, you can make decisions | :20:17. | :20:23. | |
on the pitch and sometimes they look difficult. | :20:23. | :20:27. | |
Portsmouth drop to 23rd in the championship following a goalless | :20:27. | :20:32. | |
draw days Leeds. They were denied a clear penalty at half-time. -- | :20:32. | :20:38. | |
against Leeds. This effort for Leeds may have crossed the line. | :20:38. | :20:44. | |
Portsmouth's administrator praised the attendance of 17,500, the third | :20:44. | :20:51. | |
highest attendance this season. This player struck twice in League | :20:51. | :21:01. | |
:21:01. | :21:04. | ||
Two as Aldershot thrashed by on it. On Friday, we will live at the | :21:04. | :21:08. | |
launch of Rallye Sunseeker. Attendance figures were up by 20%. | :21:08. | :21:12. | |
Driver Mark Donnolly took the spoils in the event, which was also | :21:12. | :21:16. | |
the opening round of the British Rally Championship. | :21:16. | :21:21. | |
First it was St Mary's and dense and James's Park, and now what is | :21:21. | :21:25. | |
the Rose Bowl where a significant change of name has occurred because | :21:25. | :21:28. | |
of a business sponsorship. Hampshire County Cricket Club has | :21:28. | :21:32. | |
formed a partnership with insurance company Ageas and as part of the | :21:32. | :21:36. | |
deal, the ground is being renamed the Ageas Bowl. But what if the | :21:36. | :21:42. | |
fans object? The boss should bear in mind the benefits that this | :21:42. | :21:46. | |
relationship will bring up to be Ageas Bowl. I am happy with it and | :21:46. | :21:51. | |
I have had a major part to play but I think we need to look beyond the | :21:51. | :21:56. | |
name to look at the six-year partnership. To all the benefit of | :21:56. | :22:03. | |
the supporters. I am going to get confused now! | :22:03. | :22:11. | |
I did dance and ballet. Did you not? No. Children love getting | :22:11. | :22:16. | |
involved and now we have urban dance classes on offer. Yes and we | :22:16. | :22:19. | |
have some street dancing for you now. They are called Street Vibes | :22:19. | :22:23. | |
and trained in Ferrand. They are training in competitions and now | :22:23. | :22:26. | |
need help to get to the European Street Dance Championships. Our | :22:26. | :22:33. | |
reporter is with them. Not quite having a go just yet but | :22:33. | :22:38. | |
I did earlier! This group have been dancing together for two years and | :22:38. | :22:44. | |
now they have the first chance to compete internationally -- compete. | :22:44. | :22:54. | |
:22:54. | :23:12. | ||
MUSIC PLAYS. They are a talented lot and they | :23:12. | :23:18. | |
have been trained by Nicky. How much work goes into training them? | :23:18. | :23:22. | |
It can take six to eight months to get a routine of the standard we | :23:22. | :23:27. | |
need. They train between four and five hours a week. Now do have a | :23:27. | :23:32. | |
chance to go to Paris but it comes at a cost. Yes, it comes at a huge | :23:32. | :23:36. | |
cost. We are fund-raising and looking for a sponsor and doing | :23:36. | :23:45. | |
some busking. Tracey, you are a Marmot. -- a mother. What does it | :23:45. | :23:50. | |
mean to you do see them at this standard? I am really proud. They | :23:50. | :23:54. | |
have worked so hard. Go into the championships means everything to | :23:54. | :24:00. | |
them, to compete at European level. But is amazing. A big financial | :24:00. | :24:04. | |
commitment. A Yes, it can be, but you know that when they joined the | :24:04. | :24:09. | |
club. It means so much. It is like another family for them. They get | :24:09. | :24:16. | |
on so well that you just do it. That is the view of the parent. But | :24:16. | :24:20. | |
let's find out what the dancers themselves make of it. We have | :24:20. | :24:23. | |
Hannah and Danny here. What would it mean to you to be able to go to | :24:23. | :24:27. | |
Paris? It would mean everything. It is the biggest thing we have ever | :24:27. | :24:32. | |
done. What is it about street dancing that is so special? That | :24:32. | :24:34. | |
you can share your passion with all your friends and family to learn | :24:35. | :24:41. | |
how to dance. We wish you good luck. So I will let you carry on. But I | :24:42. | :24:45. | |
am sure you will agree, they are a talented bunch. | :24:45. | :24:50. | |
They certainly are. They put us to shame! We have been trying to do | :24:50. | :25:00. | |
:25:00. | :25:24. | ||
that in the studio! Tony has been Thanks for your photographs. I come | :25:24. | :25:28. | |
roaring out of words to describe cloudy and mild. That is how it | :25:28. | :25:34. | |
will be for the evening. We are looking at the rain band that is | :25:34. | :25:39. | |
trying to edge in. As it heads further south, it is fragmenting, | :25:39. | :25:43. | |
so just a little bit of light rain or drizzled with some dampness in | :25:43. | :25:52. | |
some parts. Quite a lot of coastal fog. A low of and nine - not very | :25:52. | :25:57. | |
low. Through Tuesday, a great deal of cloud and the fog will be quite | :25:57. | :26:01. | |
stubborn to shift and with barely a breeze, the cloud will be reluctant | :26:01. | :26:07. | |
to breeze -- to break. Temperatures doing rather nicely caught | :26:07. | :26:15. | |
potentially 15 Celsius further east. Generally, a lot of dry whether to | :26:15. | :26:21. | |
be had and you can keep the heating off for another night. Another | :26:21. | :26:26. | |
frost free night. Where are we grabbing this warmth from? It is | :26:26. | :26:30. | |
pulling up from the far south. The high pressure is becoming bigger | :26:30. | :26:35. | |
and bigger as the week goes on. It is blocking a way be weather fronts | :26:35. | :26:39. | |
that could have brought us some rain and also, since we are | :26:39. | :26:44. | |
sandwiched between them, we are in a warm zone. It is mild but also | :26:44. | :26:49. | |
moist, and that is why we have lots of cloud. On Wednesday, the far | :26:49. | :26:53. | |
south-west of the coastal stretch may see some brightness and through | :26:53. | :26:59. | |
Thursday, but to be cloud. It is mild and dry for both days and | :26:59. | :27:02. | |
temperatures in double figures. For the rest of the week, I didn't | :27:03. | :27:07. | |
expect to spring warmth and did your scarves. Largely cloudy and | :27:07. | :27:17. | |
:27:17. | :27:17. | ||
there is not much rain. -- get rid of your scarfs. Cloudy and more | :27:17. | :27:21. | |
cloudy on Tuesday and Wednesday able to bob back to brightness on | :27:21. | :27:27. | |
Thursday and Friday. Submissions for a new way to say | :27:27. | :27:31. |
