:00:05. > :00:09.Hellol, I'm Sally Taylor. Welcome to South today.
:00:09. > :00:12.Anger in Weymouth and a blow to business. Cracks in the harbour
:00:12. > :00:18.wall mean Condor Ferries will remain in Poole for this Olympics
:00:18. > :00:23.summer. Weymouth is known for the ferry
:00:23. > :00:26.coming in, it is a port many people use and if we cannot get it back,
:00:26. > :00:32.it will be catastrophic for a we met.
:00:32. > :00:35.Three-time losers - disbelief as Reading remains a town.
:00:35. > :00:42.A family's heartache as the man who murdered Heather Barnett can appeal
:00:42. > :00:46.against a sentence. Spending the rest of his life in
:00:46. > :00:49.prison is exactly the right sentence for him.
:00:49. > :00:57.And do not forget about us! Arundel traders fight back against
:00:57. > :01:00.roadworks. Catastrophic - that's the view of
:01:00. > :01:06.one hotelier in Weymouth of the news that the Dorset town is losing
:01:06. > :01:09.its ferry business until November at the earliest. The failure of
:01:09. > :01:12.emergency work to repair cracks in Weymouth's damaged harbour wall
:01:12. > :01:19.means Condor Ferries will have to sail out of Poole throughout this
:01:19. > :01:22.Olympic summer. And Weymouth and Portland Council, which owns the
:01:22. > :01:24.harbour, admits it will have to rebuild it completely. Our
:01:24. > :01:34.Transport Correspondent Paul Clifton is in Weymouth tonight.
:01:34. > :01:35.
:01:35. > :01:40.Paul. The last ferry sailed from here two weeks ago. Now the ferry
:01:40. > :01:46.gates behind we are closed and locked. Condor said today it would
:01:46. > :01:51.not be back until November at the earliest. For Weymouth, that means
:01:51. > :01:57.losing a million passengers during what should be its busiest and most
:01:57. > :02:01.important summer season for decades. The decorators are sprucing up the
:02:01. > :02:06.Bourneville the tell on the seafront, ready for the summer.
:02:06. > :02:10.Since the News of the departure of Condor last night, five guests have
:02:10. > :02:18.cancelled their bookings. It is going to be catastrophic for a
:02:18. > :02:24.Weymouth. People were immediately cancelling. That is very bad for us.
:02:24. > :02:30.The new tower is due to open in July. 70 passengers at a time more
:02:30. > :02:35.ride in a glass lift which is a few metres from the ferry terminal.
:02:35. > :02:42.we may use it -- lose a little bit with people coming from the Channel
:02:42. > :02:45.Islands into Weymouth, but it is not enough to cause concern. A we
:02:45. > :02:49.fiddle contractors for hundreds of tons of concrete into huge cracks
:02:49. > :02:55.in the can harbour surface and promised Condor would return this
:02:55. > :03:00.month. That has clearly failed and failed badly. We have re scheduled
:03:00. > :03:06.air services up until November. After that, it depends what the
:03:06. > :03:10.council do with a harbour. We had hoped remedial works would be
:03:10. > :03:14.sufficient and we could return in the summer but now we have to
:03:14. > :03:22.relocate to Poole. The council owns the port therefore they must decide
:03:22. > :03:27.what happens next. The council is committed to completing
:03:27. > :03:34.refurbishment over the next 12 months. In the meantime, you will
:03:34. > :03:38.lose one million passengers this year for Weymouth. Yes, we are.
:03:38. > :03:45.Just months from the Olympics, Weymouth is no longer a ferry port,
:03:45. > :03:51.no longer a gateway to the Channel Islands and France. Condor is one
:03:51. > :03:57.of Weymouth's largest employers. It is one of the key drivers of this
:03:57. > :04:00.seaside tourist economy and now it has gone. If the council is to
:04:00. > :04:06.rebuild this old harbour wall, it is hard to imagine how the work can
:04:06. > :04:10.be completed by November. It is quite possible that Condor's
:04:10. > :04:14.million passengers will have to continue travelling from Poole and
:04:14. > :04:18.not Weymouth until next year. Thank you very much.
:04:18. > :04:21.The parents of a five-year-old girl who died in a road accident on her
:04:21. > :04:23.way to feed the ducks in Weymouth have paid tribute to their daughter,
:04:23. > :04:27.describing her as "their beautiful princess". Lily-Mae Jeffries, who
:04:27. > :04:30.was from Taunton in Somerset, died in hospital on Monday. She had been
:04:30. > :04:33.crossing the road with her two sisters and grandmother when they
:04:33. > :04:36.were hit by two motorbikes on Saturday. Her family, who describes
:04:36. > :04:39.the death as a tragic accident, say the loss has left an "unfillable
:04:39. > :04:42.void in their lives". An inquest has been opened and adjourned.
:04:42. > :04:45.An Asian headteacher who claims she was racially discriminated against
:04:45. > :04:50.has told an employment tribunal she began to feel so unsafe when she
:04:50. > :04:53.went to school that she sought police help. Sudhana Singh, seen
:04:53. > :04:56.here on the right, the former head of Moorlands Primary School in
:04:56. > :05:02.Tilehurst, told the hearing she had encountered aggression from a group
:05:02. > :05:05.of parents she described as the "playground mafia." The panel also
:05:05. > :05:15.heard she had considered committing suicide at least twice. The hearing,
:05:15. > :05:17.
:05:17. > :05:24.in Reading, continues. Disappointment and disbelief again
:05:24. > :05:27.in one part should town. -- Berkshire town. Reading - it's the
:05:27. > :05:29.largest town in England. It's a business hub recently described as
:05:29. > :05:32."recession proof". It's truly multi-cultural, with 127 different
:05:32. > :05:35.languages spoken there. But all this and more wasn't enough to earn
:05:35. > :05:38.Reading city status. Despite being the clear favourite to become a new
:05:38. > :05:41.city in England in the Queen's Diamond Jubilee year, in the end
:05:41. > :05:45.that award went to Chelmsford. Bournemouth and Dorchester also
:05:45. > :05:55.lost out. But it was in Reading that the loss was most keenly felt.
:05:55. > :05:57.
:05:57. > :06:03.Ben Moore reports. It was not what was expected.
:06:03. > :06:11.Chelmsford! The rumours had been flying, Reading was going to be a
:06:11. > :06:17.city, but at 10 o'clock there was shock. People who come here believe
:06:17. > :06:22.we are city. The process is opaque. Yes, I am disappointed but we will
:06:22. > :06:27.go on this -- promoting the good things about Reading and we're sure
:06:27. > :06:30.people will consider as a city and the capital of the Thames Valley.
:06:30. > :06:33.Putting in a bid for jubilee year has been two years in the planning.
:06:33. > :06:43.A delegation from the town was sent off to London with great fanfare
:06:43. > :06:46.
:06:46. > :06:51.last May. For those devoted to the cause, rejection is hard. It is
:06:51. > :06:55.ironic I collected this trophy yesterday which said we were the
:06:55. > :06:59.best small city in Europe. We remain proud of that achievement
:06:59. > :07:02.and will continue to do all we can to achieve more of these things.
:07:02. > :07:11.With this snub the town has missed out on city status three times in
:07:11. > :07:20.the last 12 years. It is outrageous. I am disappointed. We should be a
:07:20. > :07:25.city. I am sure with counselling, we will come to terms with it.
:07:25. > :07:30.was born here many years ago and I think it is worth city status.
:07:31. > :07:34.not think it warrants being a city, not now, it is different entirely
:07:35. > :07:37.to when I first came here. One good thing - the town is not out of
:07:38. > :07:44.pocket. The council spent just �234.50 on the bid - the main
:07:44. > :07:50.funding coming from donations. Disappointment for Reading once
:07:50. > :07:54.again but as you can see, it is business as usual. Residents are
:07:54. > :08:04.taking everything in their stride, they say Reading is a city in all
:08:04. > :08:09.but name. Our political editor is in
:08:09. > :08:13.Westminster tonight. What reaction has there been up there? As you
:08:13. > :08:20.heard in that report, people are saying through rather it gritted
:08:20. > :08:23.teeth, this is an opaque process and they do not understand why.
:08:23. > :08:27.Announcing the result, Nick Clegg said it was a real mark of
:08:27. > :08:36.distinction, a privilege and many entries will have a very high
:08:36. > :08:40.standard. He said people should not be downhearted to, but people are.
:08:40. > :08:46.People in Bournemouth said they felt let down. In Reading this was
:08:46. > :08:51.third time unlucky. I thought we had an excellent bid. We were
:08:51. > :08:57.certainly the largest town which is not a city and we had a huge power
:08:57. > :09:03.house in the south-east. Clearly I am disappointed but congratulations
:09:03. > :09:11.to tie-ins which did get it. Will the apply again? Chances seemed to
:09:11. > :09:17.come every 10 years. The next one would be the platinum jubilee. That
:09:17. > :09:22.sounds very modern - perfect for a city like Reading. Perhaps not. A
:09:22. > :09:27.lot of people here say they do not expect to see Reading apply again.
:09:27. > :09:30.Dorchester is not joining the Festival of annoyance, they say
:09:30. > :09:35.their application was always a long shot but it has helped make people
:09:35. > :09:37.aware of the uniqueness of Dorchester. Thank you very much.
:09:37. > :09:40.Cocaine with an estimated street value of �350,000 has been seized
:09:40. > :09:43.at Gatwick airport hidden inside hubs of chocolate powder. The drugs
:09:43. > :09:46.were found inside a suitcase after Border Control officers stopped 2
:09:46. > :09:52.passengers who had arrived on board a flight from Antigua at the
:09:52. > :09:55.airport's south terminal. -- tubs, A 39 year-old woman and a sixteen-
:09:55. > :09:57.year-old girl From the Walsall area were arrested and released on bail
:09:57. > :10:00.until June. The Supreme Court has said a group
:10:00. > :10:03.of former servicemen who claim they were made ill after they witnessed
:10:03. > :10:05.nuclear tests in the Pacific, cannot claim damages because the
:10:05. > :10:08.cases were brought too late. Although the majority of claims
:10:08. > :10:11.have now been blocked, some veterans may be still able to take
:10:11. > :10:21.legal action. Ray Atkinson from Gosport is waiting to hear what
:10:21. > :10:33.
:10:33. > :10:36.will happen to his case, as Mark Some of those who were there when
:10:36. > :10:40.Britain dropped the bomb have blamed their ill health on their
:10:40. > :10:44.experiences. More than 1,000 veterans have been battling in the
:10:44. > :10:49.courts for more than two years to launch damages against the Ministry
:10:49. > :10:54.of Defence. A ruling by the Supreme Court today blocked most claims,
:10:54. > :10:59.although some veterans might be able to proceed. We Atkinson is
:10:59. > :11:03.waiting to hear if he can still precede his claim. He witnessed a
:11:03. > :11:09.nuclear test in the 50s and says he suffered skin problems and his wife
:11:09. > :11:15.miscarried. What makes me mad is that all other countries start with
:11:15. > :11:21.these cases but the British government do not take any notice
:11:21. > :11:26.of that. We say no and that is it. The Supreme Court ruled the 9th
:11:26. > :11:32.claims could not go ahead because they had been brought too late. The
:11:33. > :11:37.panel of seven judges were split on the issue for-three. It must be bad
:11:37. > :11:41.enough for the nine veterans, together with others whose claims
:11:41. > :11:47.may now be decided in the same way to learn they have lost this final
:11:47. > :11:51.round. But to learn they have lost by the narrowest possible margin
:11:51. > :11:56.must make it even worse. Ministry of Defence has said there
:11:56. > :12:00.is no proof that sickness suffered by veterans was a direct result of
:12:00. > :12:06.the nuclear tests. Lawyers for the servicemen are studying the Supreme
:12:06. > :12:08.Court's ruling to see how many cases can still proceed.

:12:48. > :12:51.The man who murdered mother-of-two Heather Barnett has been given
:12:51. > :12:54.permission to appeal against his sentence. Danilo Restivo mutilated
:12:54. > :13:00.Ms Barnett in Bournemouth in 2002 and left her body for her children
:13:00. > :13:04.to find. He was told he'd never be released from prison - but is now
:13:05. > :13:09.appealing against that. Ms Barnett's sister, Denise, said he
:13:09. > :13:17.should spend his whole life behind bars. I'm joined now by our Home
:13:17. > :13:20.Affairs Correspondent Alex Forsyth. What is this decision mean?
:13:20. > :13:24.means that Danilo Restivo can go before the Court of Appeal and
:13:24. > :13:28.argue that the centre should be reduced. He also wanted to appeal
:13:28. > :13:33.against his conviction but the court would not allow it. He was
:13:33. > :13:39.convicted last year of murdering his neighbour in Bournemouth. He
:13:39. > :13:44.mutilated her body and he left her for her children who were aged 11
:13:44. > :13:47.and 14 to find. When he was sentenced last here, the judge said
:13:47. > :13:53.the crime are so serious and depraved, he should never be
:13:53. > :13:56.released from prison. He sentenced him to no minimum term and it is
:13:57. > :14:01.against that that Danilo Restivo is appealing. The sister of Heather
:14:01. > :14:06.Barnett says she's not surprised he is appealing but hopes he is never
:14:06. > :14:10.released. I think that spending the rest of his life in prison is
:14:10. > :14:16.exactly the right sentence for a Danilo Restivo. I do not think he
:14:16. > :14:22.would ever be able to return to normal he seems to be a very
:14:22. > :14:28.damaged individual who solemn self as a victim and did not except the
:14:28. > :14:34.horrendous injuries he subjected to my sister and someone else. He is
:14:34. > :14:39.also been convicted of another murder? Yes, whilst in prison he
:14:39. > :14:44.was convicted of killing a sixteen- year-old girl in its early. He has
:14:44. > :14:51.since been linked to a third murder. A man is currently in prison for
:14:51. > :14:56.killing a student in Bournemouth in 2002. This man claims he did not do
:14:56. > :15:01.this and it was Danilo Restivo. The Criminal Cases Review Commission is
:15:01. > :15:05.currently looking into those claims. It has not made a decision yet. A
:15:05. > :15:09.date has yet to be set for a hearing which will decide whether
:15:09. > :15:15.Danilo Restivo's sentence for her Heather Barnett's murder should be
:15:15. > :15:18.reduced or not. Thank you very much. "Roadworks are ruining our trade".
:15:18. > :15:21.That's the message from businesses in Arundel in West Sussex after
:15:21. > :15:24.takings dropped by up to 60% this week. People were also late for
:15:24. > :15:27.work after being caught up in long tailbacks. The Highways Agency says
:15:27. > :15:36.the delays on the A27 aren't acceptable but measures are in

:15:55. > :16:00.night, we looked out the window and there was no point in us being open,
:16:00. > :16:05.there was no one around to. There was plenty of car parking spaces on
:16:05. > :16:10.the high street which really happens. It is a similar story
:16:10. > :16:15.elsewhere in the town. We had a terrible day on Monday, so much so
:16:15. > :16:19.we were at 60 % down on what we would expect to be. Since the
:16:19. > :16:24.roadworks started, it has been really quiet and it is really
:16:24. > :16:29.difficult to do deliveries. roadworks are close to the town and
:16:30. > :16:34.tailbacks clog up the route into Arundel. It will be this way for at
:16:34. > :16:39.least five weeks. The sign says that Arundel is still open for
:16:39. > :16:44.business. They're trying to get people to stop off in the town. The
:16:44. > :16:48.Highways Agency says some disruption is inevitable. They are
:16:48. > :16:54.trying to ease things and have tried to speed the traffic through.
:16:54. > :16:59.They want more help in the town. want better sign age, better

:17:48. > :17:54.been worth the wait. Ernest Payne was 29 when his tank stormed the
:17:54. > :18:04.beaches of Normandy on the second day of the D-Day landings. I will
:18:04. > :18:14.never forget. We were hit. The shell went straight through the

:18:14. > :18:19.turrets of the tank. It killed the three men in the top. The co-driver
:18:19. > :18:23.and myself were able to get out. says he never got around to
:18:24. > :18:30.applying for his medals. Now he has three to join his collection of
:18:30. > :18:37.memories. This photo captures the time his tank was inspected kite --
:18:37. > :18:41.inspected by King George did six. Earnest left the Army at the
:18:41. > :18:47.beginning of 1945. It is thought his early exit is the reason why
:18:47. > :18:52.his medals were not processed. Hearing his war stories, his family
:18:52. > :18:58.applied for his medals so he has a keepsake. I think it is lovely that
:18:58. > :19:04.my uncle has them after row these years. It is such a thrill to see
:19:04. > :19:11.them so pleased. He remains incredibly humble about his
:19:11. > :19:21.involvement in the war. I am no brave sort of soldier. I just did
:19:21. > :19:22.
:19:22. > :19:26.what I had to do. Proud of his medals and so he
:19:26. > :19:29.should be. Onto sport, and the Berkshire-based

:19:31. > :19:34.becoming the most successful trainer ever at the Cheltenham
:19:34. > :19:37.Festival on the second day of this year's meeting. Henderson, who's

:19:43. > :19:46.which Finian's Rainbow beat the favourite Sizing Europe in a neck
:19:46. > :19:56.and neck finish. His successes today mean he's saddled a total of
:19:56. > :19:56.
:19:56. > :20:02.44 winners at Cheltenham. He will be looking ahead to Friday
:20:02. > :20:04.and the Gold Cup. He won it last year. Well done to him.
:20:04. > :20:07.In football, Reading have moved into second place in the
:20:07. > :20:10.Championship - an automatic promotion place, after a one-all
:20:10. > :20:13.draw at Doncaster. Doncaster's Kyle Bennett prodded home a cross to put
:20:13. > :20:16.the hosts ahead.. The Royals' Alex Pearce nodded Ian Harte's corner in
:20:16. > :20:25.to level. Despite late pressure Reading couldn't score another -
:20:26. > :20:31.the result ending their eight match winning streak. A great response in
:20:31. > :20:37.the second half, we got an early goal. Have thought we would win the
:20:38. > :20:43.game really. We had opportunities, but the most important thing is to
:20:43. > :20:46.get some kind of result and we definitely got that.
:20:46. > :20:48.Crawley and Aldershot also shared the points in a 2-all draw. Aaron
:20:48. > :20:51.Morris's deflected strike put the Shots ahead. Before Crawley's Gary
