:01:16. > :01:20.In the 1980s, David Bryant snatched and assaulted the two under fives

:01:35. > :01:39.reviewed the DNA evidence. The following May Bryant was matched to

:01:43. > :01:47.a DNA sample from one of his relatives. Today, he was jailed

:02:12. > :02:17.some boarded-up houses where he indecently assaulted her. In May
:02:17. > :02:21.the next year, another victim. This time the girl was three and was
:02:21. > :02:25.taken from outside her Southampton home, returning hours later with
:02:25. > :02:30.her clothes dishevelled saying she had been with a doctor. Speaking as
:02:30. > :02:34.an adult, she said, "When I hear an ice-cream van playing its music, I
:02:34. > :02:39.am left with chills all over my body. I am left remembering what
:02:39. > :02:44.happened to me at a very young age." For almost 30 years no-one
:02:44. > :02:48.knew who had committed these crimes, then cold case detectives began a
:02:48. > :02:52.review of historic sexual offences. They loaded DNA from the two crime
:02:52. > :02:57.scenes on the national database and it matched two cases of child
:02:57. > :03:02.kidnap and abuse in Newcastle in the 1990s and it matched Bryant.
:03:02. > :03:07.For us, it proves the benefit of reviewing cold cases and keeping

:04:46. > :04:50.Forensic Science Service made that DNA match which led police to
:04:50. > :04:54.Bryant. But the Government which owns it says it is inefficient, it

:04:58. > :05:03.are contracting out their forensic work to private firms, or they are

:09:24. > :09:28.is doing something similar, all designed to help save water. So
:09:28. > :09:31.there is a cost. We think in terms of the cost, it is a lower cost
:09:31. > :09:35.than some of those other solutions we could have done. Equally, it is
:09:35. > :09:39.good for the environment because it reduces demand for water and helps
:09:39. > :09:44.preserve the water that we do have in the environment.
:09:44. > :09:52.This scheme will probably cost around �100 million to do. We will
:09:52. > :09:56.save around 18 million litres of water per day. What reaction have
:09:56. > :10:00.you had from your customers? Most customers really understand the
:10:00. > :10:04.reason why we are doing it. And accept that it is the right thing
:10:04. > :10:09.to do, paying for what you use is the right thing to do. Do you think
:10:09. > :10:12.things will get worse over the summer? We will have to wait and
:10:12. > :10:16.see. Whether we get some rain or not. We need to plan and make sure
:10:16. > :10:21.that if we take these steps now, there is more opportunity for us to

:12:07. > :12:11.The horizon in Brighton as it is now and as it could be. The wind
:12:11. > :12:21.farm would be visible from the shore. Underground cables would
:12:21. > :12:24.link it to an inland substation 28 miles away. It is no done deal.
:12:24. > :12:29.E.ON will need Government approval. Yes, people can find out the
:12:29. > :12:36.details about this. If they are really opposing the project, this
:12:36. > :12:40.is not the right place to express their disagreement so to speak.
:12:40. > :12:43.E.ON says 4,000 people have attended the consultation and they
:12:43. > :12:46.are listening to the feedback. People have their concerns, that is
:12:46. > :12:49.the purpose of this consultation exercise so people can come and air
:12:49. > :12:54.their views, they can raise their concerns. Of course, we can talk
:12:54. > :12:59.them through it. It will be a first for Sussex, so I asked people what
:12:59. > :13:02.they made of it. REPORTER: What do you think? It is
:13:02. > :13:09.an eyesore. It could be like a tourist attraction. It could bring
:13:09. > :13:14.people to the area. It is a bloody eyesore! You would be against it?
:13:14. > :13:20.Absolutely. I don't object to them. I don't live here. So I haven't got
:13:20. > :13:25.to look at it all. Environmental groups say eyesore or not, it is
:13:25. > :13:29.needed unlike a referendum. We have to get real. Climate change
:13:29. > :13:32.is a real threat to future humanity and unless we start taking action
:13:32. > :13:36.and responsibility just like we are having to do economically, we have
:13:36. > :13:42.to do that environmentally as well. But Marta Andreasen says hundreds
:13:42. > :13:47.have complained and she will fight for them.
:13:47. > :13:51.Two Sussex men have been honoured for their work in making

:14:12. > :14:17.the resting place of a loved one who died serving their country.
:14:17. > :14:27.These three men, two from Sussex, have spent years making it possible.

:14:28. > :14:34.REPORTER: How does this work? try it. We type in the name of the
:14:34. > :14:39.largest commissioned cemetery in the world - Tyne Cot - and you can
:14:40. > :14:45.see where the cemetery is. Click on "location". Here we have an aerial
:14:45. > :14:51.view of the cemetery. Or you can scroll around the area to see what
:14:51. > :14:57.the area is like. Around 1.7 million people died serving the
:14:57. > :15:03.Realm during both World Wars. They rer -- their remains are scattered
:15:03. > :15:07.in every corner of the globe. 20,000 cemeteries and their
:15:07. > :15:12.satellite position were found so anyone can find them. Today, their
:15:13. > :15:19.efforts were recognised during an awards ceremony at St James's
:15:19. > :15:25.Palace. The quest began six years ago after a trip to a War Cemetery
:15:25. > :15:30.in France. I researched where the cemetery was. I found the location
:15:30. > :15:34.on my computer. I plotted it into my sat-nav and went there. When I
:15:34. > :15:40.came back, I was so moved by the occasion that when I came back I
:15:40. > :15:44.decided to plot a few more. Terry and Bruce were working on UK sites.
:15:44. > :15:48.They started at the top in alphabetical order. I started from
:15:48. > :15:53.the bottom in alphabetical order and we eventually met about
:15:53. > :15:58.Yorkshire, I think! LAUGHTER The information is on the Commonwealth
:15:58. > :16:06.war grave commission website. Since its launch two months ago, people
:16:06. > :16:12.have been able to find the graves of lost family members. I may -- it
:16:12. > :16:20.may be surprising to realise not everyone knows where their loved
:16:20. > :16:27.one is buried. It's difficult to put a price on the importance of a
:16:27. > :16:31.family member being able to go and touch the grave of their loved one.
:16:32. > :16:37.Countless hours have gone into finding these cemeteries. The work
:16:37. > :16:45.continues. They are now spreading their location into South Africa

:17:44. > :17:47.the two large cylinders which weigh 16 tonnes and house the engine room
:17:47. > :17:52.into place was a delicate job. Although there are some who don't
:17:52. > :17:56.like the look of it, the �3.5 million tower does offer a new
:17:56. > :18:04.selling point for the resort. Speaking to one of the engineers
:18:04. > :18:11.this morning, they could see over to Abbotsbury this morning. It is a
:18:11. > :18:14.fantastic view. The viewing platform will hold 70 people and
:18:14. > :18:18.will rise off the ground in the next few weeks. The view looks
:18:18. > :18:25.fantastic today. Imagine what it is going to be like when you are
:18:25. > :18:30.inside this and you are revolving around 360 degrees 50 metres up in
:18:30. > :18:37.the air. We don't know the price for the tickets, but I understand
:18:37. > :18:41.they will be less than �10. There will be some great views of

:18:45. > :18:50.Aldershot. 20 years ago, the town's football club was shut down after
:18:50. > :18:54.going bankrupt. A new club was born and Aldershot Town has now climbed
:18:54. > :18:57.its way up the football Pyramid into the Football League. Tonight,
:18:57. > :19:01.the new club honours the old one and Tony is there at the Ebb
:19:01. > :19:06.Stadium tonight. Quite an emotional night tonight?
:19:06. > :19:14.It is. We have lots of ex-players from Aldershot Football Club who
:19:14. > :19:17.are going to be here. Since 1992, 92 English football clubs have had
:19:17. > :19:21.some kind of insolvency process to go through. The mistakes of what's
:19:21. > :19:24.happened in the past continue to happen in football. It is something
:19:24. > :19:28.that the game financially still has to address. Tonight, they are
:19:28. > :19:36.remembering the past and here is the matchday programme. Lincoln
:19:36. > :19:42.City here the last game that was played and then Cardiff City away,
:19:42. > :19:49.the last-ever game the old football club played. That was '92. It felt
:19:49. > :19:53.like goodbye at full-time... 25th March 1992 and after 66 years, time
:19:53. > :20:03.finally ran out for Aldershot Football Club. This is how South
:20:03. > :20:11.Today reported it at the time. NEWSREEL: The talk of 11th hour
:20:11. > :20:18.saviours came to nothing... The club had had a long battle with its
:20:18. > :20:27.finances. Two years earlier, a potential saviour appeared. I went
:20:27. > :20:34.into property. Property is dead as a dodo. But the investment proved
:20:34. > :20:41.short-lived with debts of �1.2 million and Aldershot became the
:20:41. > :20:48.first professional football club to leave the league mid-season. Let's
:20:48. > :20:52.talk to a couple of people who remember 20 years ago, a former
:20:52. > :20:56.Southampton and Aldershot player. What a difficult time it was when
:20:56. > :20:59.the club went out of business? was very tough for all the players,
:20:59. > :21:03.staff and the supporters and the players, we weren't sure if we were
:21:03. > :21:07.going to have a fixture. We turned up, we wanted to keep our careers
:21:07. > :21:12.going, we wanted to keep the club going but it was very difficult. In
:21:12. > :21:16.the end, the inevitable happened. You turned up for the auction when
:21:16. > :21:20.they sold off the stuff. We have some pictures. It was an emotional
:21:20. > :21:24.time? It was. I wanted a me moan toe of the club that I was very
:21:24. > :21:29.happy at. I was bidding tonne boardroom table and was outbid. I
:21:29. > :21:33.wanted something from the club. It was a very happy club. Good to have
:21:33. > :21:38.you here. Graham was a supporter back then, now very much involved
:21:38. > :21:42.in the club. Your abiding memory? Sad. When you lose a football club,
:21:42. > :21:47.it is something you never believe is going to happen. It did here.
:21:47. > :21:53.What we learnt from that, we learnt so much that we could co-ordinate
:21:53. > :21:59.into the new club. You must never ever forget your history. All right.
:21:59. > :22:07.Thank you very much. Aldershot v Bristol Rovers here this evening.
:22:07. > :22:16.Portsmouth are up against Hull, Michael Appleton targeting two wins
:22:16. > :22:21.this week. There will be a first game in charge for Paul Groves, the
:22:21. > :22:25.Bournemouth caretaker manager as they go to Stevenage. He was put in
:22:25. > :22:29.temporary charge yesterday. If we move on to Sussex, League Two,
:22:29. > :22:37.Crawley could go back into the automatic promotion places when
:22:37. > :22:40.they travel to Bradford. Lots of football, all the goals
:22:40. > :22:43.tomorrow night. They are remembering special times here at
:22:43. > :22:49.Aldershot. There is a picture behind the goal, you won't be able
:22:49. > :22:53.to see it, it is of one of the saviours of Aldershot. They do
:22:53. > :22:57.remember their history. They are also hopefully looking forward to a
:22:57. > :23:02.bright future as well. Now, as you may well know, next
:23:02. > :23:06.month will see a host of ceremonies and events to mark the centenary of
:23:06. > :23:09.the world's most famous shipping disaster, the sinking of the
:23:09. > :23:15.Titanic. There will be more permanent reminders with two new
:23:15. > :23:18.museums. In Belfast the �90 million Titanic signature building opens on
:23:18. > :23:23.Friday. It is on the site of the shipyard that built the liner.
:23:23. > :23:26.Among the attractions is a re- creation of the Titanic's grand
:23:26. > :23:34.staircase. Southampton will have its new Sea City Museum which
:23:34. > :23:41.charts Titanic, the impact the disaster had on its own port. It's
:23:41. > :23:45.given guests a sneak preview. Shiny new interactive exhibits for
:23:45. > :23:50.the latest attraction. Southampton Sea City Museum has opened its
:23:50. > :23:55.doors for a few special guests. is to get some feedback while we
:23:55. > :24:01.have some time to correct things or adjust things, like sound levels.
:24:01. > :24:04.It will be difficult to make changes to that once we are open.
:24:04. > :24:11.The museum will tell the whole story of Southampton's relationship
:24:11. > :24:17.with the sea, but for this year, the 100th anniversary of RMS
:24:17. > :24:21.Titanic is taking centre stage. This is a soft launch for the new
:24:21. > :24:25.museum. They are inviting people to test all the interactive displays
:24:25. > :24:35.to see if anything needs changes before the official launch on April
:24:35. > :24:39.10th. It is proving very popular. like driving the Titanic down The
:24:39. > :24:45.Solent. You have to keep in the deep part. I like all the models of
:24:45. > :24:49.the boat. Really fun. It's taken five years to get to this stage.
:24:49. > :24:57.Judging by the enthusiasm of these visitors, those behind the project
:24:57. > :25:00.are hopeful it will all sail smoothly.
:25:00. > :25:04.A special South Today two weeks today, we will be live there. So
:25:04. > :25:10.today, we will be live there. So make sure you are with us.
:25:10. > :25:14.On to the weather. No rain on the horizon? No rain on the horizon. I
:25:14. > :25:21.am struggling to come up with more words to describe this sunny
:25:21. > :25:31.weather. I tweeted and I got some contributions. "It's a vitamin D
:25:31. > :25:42.
:25:42. > :25:46.immersion" and another said, "It's sun-seational!" -- sun-sational!"
:25:46. > :25:51.A clear view of the region as you can see from the satellite picture
:25:51. > :25:57.taking earlier. Even now, those clearing skies are with us so it
:25:58. > :26:01.will be a chilly night once again. Cold and dry with a touch of ground
:26:01. > :26:04.frost. The winds are very light and the skies are clear, particularly
:26:04. > :26:11.out in the countryside. Temperatures once again a re-run of
:26:11. > :26:15.last night, so close to freezing. The mist and fog not so much of an
:26:15. > :26:20.issue as we head towards Wednesday. Wednesday is an exceptionally warm
:26:20. > :26:25.day. We are expecting highs of 22 Celsius for a lot of spots. Further
:26:25. > :26:30.east, we could be exceeding 23 Celsius. That is not really
:26:30. > :26:35.breaking any March records. We have recorded highs of 25.6 Celsius in
:26:35. > :26:41.1968, so that was the warmest March on record. On Wednesday evening,
:26:42. > :26:46.there will be a little bit of cloud floating in. Temperatures around 6
:26:46. > :26:50.Celsius. Then on Thursday, it is again a very warm and very dry
:26:50. > :26:53.scene, no sign of that rain all because of high pressure. That high
:26:54. > :26:58.is pushing west all the while. So we are having a more of a northerly
:26:58. > :27:02.flow as we head towards the end of the week into the weekend. So
:27:02. > :27:05.Friday is a little bit cooler with a bit of cloud floating in. It is
:27:05. > :27:09.still well above the seasonal average. Saturday, however,
:27:09. > :27:13.considerably cloudier and certainly much cooler, but it is essentially
:27:13. > :27:19.dry. So we are looking at very warm temperatures tomorrow, pretty warm
:27:19. > :27:24.on Thursday, not so bad on Friday, Saturday and Sunday will be much
:27:24. > :27:32.cooler. That is a big drop in temperature.
