Hello, I'm Sally Taylor. Welcome to South Today. In tonight's programme.

:00:03.:00:06.

A major trauma centre in Southampton to treat the most

:00:06.:00:11.

seriously ill, but what will be the impact on other hospitals?

:00:11.:00:14.

Anger and humiliation - disabled sailor Geoff Holt tells us how he

:00:14.:00:23.

became a victim of discrimination. I just never in my life have been

:00:23.:00:28.

so violated, I felt dehumanised as a human being. Remembering the

:00:28.:00:31.

Falklands invasion and the huge task force that set sail from

:00:31.:00:38.

Portsmouth. I hope it never happens again, but that we would still be

:00:38.:00:45.

able to be that prepared. And find out later why I'm here in

:00:45.:00:55.
:00:55.:00:56.

A new way of treating patients involved in the most serious, life

:00:56.:00:59.

and death emergencies is being introduced across the South today.

:00:59.:01:02.

Instead of being taken to their nearest hospital, patients will be

:01:02.:01:06.

taken to major trauma centres instead. Here in the South, these

:01:06.:01:08.

will be located at the John Radcliffe hospital in Oxford, St

:01:08.:01:11.

George's in London, Southampton General Hospital and the Royal

:01:11.:01:20.

Trauma units at local hospitals, for example Poole General in Dorset,

:01:20.:01:22.

or St Richard's Hospital in Chichester will treat less serious

:01:22.:01:24.

injuries and stabilise some patients before they're transferred

:01:24.:01:32.

Our Health Correspondent David Fenton is at Southampton General

:01:32.:01:42.
:01:42.:01:43.

Hospital. Killyvalley. As a major trauma centre, this emergency

:01:43.:01:48.

department is going to be seeing about 100,000 cases every year, but

:01:48.:01:53.

it is also now going to be seeing the most serious, life-threatening

:01:53.:01:58.

cases, from a road accident, from acts of violence, and also from

:01:58.:02:04.

balls, across the south of England. The last time Ricky was here, he

:02:04.:02:07.

was in a coma for four weeks. He had severed the main artery from

:02:07.:02:13.

his brain in a motorbike crash. was a massive head injury, that was

:02:13.:02:18.

the main injury, I had a few other injuries, but the main one was a

:02:18.:02:23.

broken back in three places, compound fracture in my leg, broken

:02:24.:02:29.

pelvis, nose, ruptured spleen. Apart from that, I was OK! But it

:02:29.:02:33.

was no joke at the time. Ricky survived because he was seen

:02:33.:02:40.

quickly by a team of brain injury specialists. The important thing is

:02:40.:02:42.

patient get to a centre that can provide all the care that they need,

:02:42.:02:46.

as fast as possible to stop historically, patient have gone to

:02:46.:02:50.

their local hospital, where there injury to exceed the capabilities

:02:50.:02:54.

of those hospitals. The hospital has to recognise that and then

:02:54.:02:57.

resuscitate the patient and then moved into a centre like

:02:57.:03:02.

Southampton. From today, most cases of life and death injury in the

:03:02.:03:07.

south will come here, and it is hoped, more will survive. Basically,

:03:07.:03:12.

what has been shown his Desire time critical decisions, so we need our

:03:12.:03:17.

radiological colleagues to do the scans, all in one place at one time.

:03:17.:03:20.

All those time critical interventions can be made for the

:03:20.:03:24.

patient's benefit. They would double the number of resuscitation

:03:24.:03:29.

bed can take on more nurses, a consultant and surgeons, and their

:03:29.:03:33.

aim will be more patient flown in by air ambulance, which is paid for

:03:33.:03:37.

by charity. At it is good and bad about it means the government

:03:37.:03:42.

cannot top sliced the funding, but it is the ultimate in patient

:03:42.:03:47.

choice. If the patient doesn't want it, they will not fund it. But they

:03:47.:03:53.

are always popular charities. new trauma centre is now up and

:03:53.:03:57.

running. But it will take some patients away from other hospitals,

:03:57.:04:02.

and not everyone is happy about that. Just talking about the air

:04:02.:04:05.

ambulance, I understand it has landed there at Southampton while

:04:05.:04:12.

we have been on air? It has, about five minutes ago, we saw the air

:04:12.:04:16.

ambulance coming in, landing on the new helipad, which they have just

:04:16.:04:20.

built as part of this major trauma centre, to get patients here

:04:20.:04:25.

quickly. A patient, a 15-year-old man was brought in here after a

:04:25.:04:32.

very strong road accident -- a 15- year-old man. I have to say, they

:04:32.:04:35.

might have been complaints about this, particularly about its effect

:04:36.:04:41.

on other hospitals, notably Queen Alexandra in Cosham, where they are

:04:41.:04:46.

likely to treat fewer serious patients as a result. Those

:04:46.:04:49.

complaints have come from politicians in the area, from all

:04:49.:04:53.

of the main political parties, who have been making this point today.

:04:53.:04:57.

I spoke to Councillor Peter Edgar today. People are now worried that

:04:57.:05:03.

there is going to be a consultation on A&E in Southampton General, that

:05:03.:05:10.

they will have to come at long distances, Chichester, Gosport,

:05:10.:05:14.

Southsea, all the way to Southampton, when an ambulance

:05:14.:05:17.

driver or paramedic makes a decision that they may have a head

:05:17.:05:21.

injury, and people are very worried that this could lead to a run-down

:05:21.:05:27.

of in -- of the super hospital. Despite those complaints, I think

:05:28.:05:31.

the feeling here is that there will be longer journeys for patient,

:05:31.:05:35.

there may be fewer patients for of hospitals, but the patients who do

:05:35.:05:39.

come here have a much better chance of survival.

:05:39.:05:42.

The disabled yachtsman Geoff Holt has been speaking of his anger and

:05:42.:05:45.

humiliation after being prevented from boarding a train on the Isle

:05:45.:05:48.

of Wight. Geoff, who's been in a wheelchair since a swimming

:05:48.:05:51.

accident, says he was eventually allowed to board - but not before

:05:51.:05:54.

being injured by the metal ramp used to help disabled travellers

:05:54.:06:01.

onto the train. South West Trains and British Transport Police have

:06:01.:06:07.

both launched investigations. Bob Everett reports.

:06:07.:06:10.

Geoff Holt won the respect of people across the country by

:06:10.:06:13.

sailing single-handed around Britain, despite his disability. He

:06:13.:06:19.

followed that by sailing across the Atlantic and becoming a disability

:06:19.:06:23.

sports ambassador. Ocean's haven't stopped him, but he says at the

:06:23.:06:27.

behaviour of a guard on board the train which runs along Ryde Pier

:06:27.:06:34.

almost did. He said, not on the train, I said I had a right to, he

:06:34.:06:38.

very begrudgingly got the ramp at, which is only a small device anyway,

:06:38.:06:44.

and threw it out the train door. It bounced off the platform, hit my

:06:44.:06:48.

leg, I can't feed it, because I am disabled, but that makes it even

:06:49.:06:53.

worse, some times. Because you are paralysed Klyuka to be a little

:06:53.:06:58.

stock British Transport Police are investigating. The train operator

:06:58.:07:03.

issued a statement, saying they were horrified by the events he

:07:04.:07:07.

described a man made clear that electric wheelchairs are welcome.

:07:07.:07:17.
:07:17.:07:26.

The final insult was when he said, quite loudly, that I was going to

:07:26.:07:31.

delay the train and everybody on it. When I got to the other end. I

:07:31.:07:37.

never in my life have been so violated, I felt dehumanised as a

:07:37.:07:43.

human being. There were docks on the train, filthy dogs, that had

:07:43.:07:48.

been on a walk, and they were allowed on, but I wasn't, because

:07:48.:07:52.

of who I am, because I do so in journalism, because I write for

:07:52.:07:56.

magazines, I have made a career for myself, I'm prepared to speak out.

:07:56.:08:00.

I am not prepared to accept discrimination at any level against

:08:00.:08:03.

any body. Tributes have been paid to the

:08:03.:08:06.

runner who died after collapsing at the finishing line of the Reading

:08:06.:08:10.

half marathon yesterday. Ged Clarke was 39 and a keen athlete who'd

:08:10.:08:14.

been running a Twitter campaign to get people exercising. Joe Campbell

:08:14.:08:18.

reports. It began like so many previous

:08:18.:08:21.

races - half sporting event, half party. But this half marathon was

:08:22.:08:27.

to end in tragedy for runner. Ged Clarke. The father of two worked

:08:28.:08:30.

for a civil engineering firm in Reading, but away from the office

:08:31.:08:34.

was a keen runner an also coached teenage son Jake's football team.

:08:34.:08:37.

While the hot weather took it out of some competitors, though who

:08:37.:08:40.

knew Ged through his running never doubted his ability to take on the

:08:40.:08:48.

21km course round the town. He had been training for the half marathon,

:08:48.:08:52.

and he had also been training for the triathlon, which he was doing

:08:52.:08:57.

as part of Sport Relief just a week or so ago. He had put in all the

:08:57.:09:01.

right training. It is just an absolute tragedy that a man so

:09:01.:09:05.

young, so fit, he was nervous about doing the run, not because he

:09:05.:09:10.

wasn't -- was afraid, but because he wanted to finish the race and

:09:10.:09:13.

get back home. The 39-year-old's death was felt far beyond those

:09:13.:09:16.

taking part. His wife Estelle and children were taking consolation

:09:16.:09:19.

today from messages on twitter which he'd used to promote the idea

:09:19.:09:27.

of a midday run through his 12 o'clock club for desk bound workers.

:09:27.:09:30.

Janine, before heading off herself this lunchtime, was planning to

:09:30.:09:36.

hold a minutes silence in his memory. Everybody is in shock, they

:09:36.:09:40.

cannot believe that this big- hearted man has gone so quickly.

:09:40.:09:44.

One minute there, and ins, he has got. And among other midday runners,

:09:44.:09:47.

a sadness that one who'd done so much to promote this sport here

:09:48.:09:57.

would no longer be there to offer words of encouragement.

:09:57.:10:00.

A robber who dressed as Elvis Presley and wore other disguises as

:10:00.:10:03.

he held up bookmakers across the south, has been sent to prison for

:10:03.:10:05.

life. 53-year-old Martin Reilly started his series of raids in

:10:05.:10:08.

Sussex and was always armed with an imitation handgun or knife. Today

:10:08.:10:11.

it emerged Reilly committed the offences while out on licence from

:10:11.:10:14.

a previous life sentence following similar armed robberies in the

:10:14.:10:19.

1990s. Sean Killick reports. This is how Martin Reilly looked

:10:19.:10:22.

last October, but this was him in disguise, three months earlier,

:10:22.:10:27.

when he tried to rob a bookmaker's in Hove. He looked up the lone male

:10:27.:10:32.

member of staff, but fled empty- handed. Four days later, dressed

:10:32.:10:37.

like Gulbis as he rubbed Ladbrokes in Brighton. -- like Elvis. The

:10:37.:10:42.

next club, he adopted a different disguise as he rode at Ladbrokes in

:10:42.:10:47.

working. Three weeks later, he left his face uncovered at Ladbrokes in

:10:47.:10:54.

Portsmouth. In another rave, security videos and covered his

:10:54.:10:57.

face. The court was told that all the betting staff had suffered from

:10:57.:11:01.

mental anguish and that several were still suffering even now.

:11:01.:11:05.

Statement from the victims were read to the court, who reported

:11:05.:11:09.

problems with sleeping, self- confident, and several said they

:11:09.:11:15.

were too scared to be on their own, either at work or at home. His

:11:15.:11:19.

three-month series average to come across Sussex, Hampshire, Essex,

:11:19.:11:23.

Bedfordshire and London. The he has clearly employed a number of

:11:23.:11:28.

disguises come he was trying to hide his identity. Fortunately for

:11:28.:11:33.

us, Ladbrokes themselves have some very good CCTV, and were able to

:11:33.:11:38.

identify him at a very early stage, unfortunately, it took so well to

:11:38.:11:42.

catch him but that was more to do with his transient nature.

:11:42.:11:46.

judge said he was going to have to serve 12 years before being

:11:46.:11:52.

eligible for parole. Will people were injured after two

:11:52.:11:55.

buses collided in Southampton. Hampshire police said no one was

:11:55.:12:00.

seriously hurt after the single- decker vehicles crashed -- 12

:12:00.:12:09.

people were injured. Still to come in this evening's

:12:09.:12:12.

South Today: Alexis Green runs the race of her life inside the Olympic

:12:12.:12:16.

stadium. It is so amazing coming into the stadium. There are over

:12:16.:12:24.

20,000 people here, it is The 30th anniversary of the

:12:24.:12:26.

Argentina invasion of the Falkland Islands is being remembered across

:12:26.:12:29.

the South today, by the thousands of military personnel and civilians

:12:29.:12:36.

who played a part in the re-capture of the islands. Steve Humphrey is

:12:36.:12:42.

in Portsmouth, from where many ships in the Task Force set sail.

:12:42.:12:45.

Yes, the Argentinean invasion sparked off some frenetic activity

:12:45.:12:47.

here in Portsmouth and in Southampton to prepare the Task

:12:47.:12:55.

Force for action in the South Atlantic. A few days later on April

:12:55.:12:59.

5th 1982 - thousands of people were here to wave goodbye to the ships

:12:59.:13:05.

heading to the Falklands - and to wish them good luck. It's a

:13:05.:13:08.

conflict that still arouses strong feelings. Today, I've been talking

:13:08.:13:18.
:13:18.:13:18.

to people in Gosport. I hope it never happens again but we could

:13:18.:13:22.

still be banned prepared. From what we read about, possibly we would

:13:22.:13:28.

not be able to do it again. We were believing that we have done a good

:13:28.:13:34.

job. They are very patriotic air. They are coming down from the other

:13:34.:13:38.

quite and down to the Falklands and everybody turned up to see them

:13:38.:13:44.

depart and to come back. Well, altogether some 20,000 men were

:13:44.:13:48.

sent to the South Atlantic to re- capture the islands. The war lasted

:13:48.:13:58.
:13:58.:13:58.

a total of 74 days. There was little a small detachment of

:13:58.:14:03.

marines could do to resist Argentina's invasion on April

:14:03.:14:09.

Second, 1982. But in Britain, there was a swift response.

:14:09.:14:13.

government has decided a task force will set sail as soon as all

:14:13.:14:19.

preparations are complete. -- complete. They were leading a task

:14:19.:14:24.

force out of Portsmouth Harbour. As luck would have it, 20 ships were

:14:24.:14:30.

ready in the Atlantic on exercises, commanded by this Rea at will, now

:14:30.:14:38.

living in Chichester. -- Admiral. We had 48 hours' notice to go to

:14:38.:14:45.

war. But we had a big group of ships one-third of the way down

:14:45.:14:50.

there and that was a help with timing. Also at sea, Chris Parry

:14:50.:14:57.

from Portsmouth. This armed helicopter observer had just

:14:57.:15:03.

published the diary he kept in 1982. What was remarkable was that in

:15:03.:15:10.

three hours of being shaken, I was in my overalls and we were flying

:15:10.:15:13.

alongside the ships and transferring ammunition, storage

:15:13.:15:19.

and personnel. 255 British servicemen died in the battle to

:15:19.:15:24.

liberate the Falkland Islands and more were injured. John from

:15:24.:15:30.

Gosport suffered severe burns while saving -- saving on HMS Sheffield.

:15:30.:15:36.

This destroyer was hit by a missile on a 4th, 1982. Members of the crew

:15:36.:15:43.

were killed, 20 of them. I covered my face with my hands and ran to

:15:43.:15:48.

port side. As I was climbing up I could see the skin falling off the

:15:48.:15:54.

back at my hand. I got through to the deck and from there I made my

:15:54.:16:02.

way forward and some people helped me. The conflict ended with the

:16:02.:16:06.

Argentinian surrender in June 1982 but the war of words over the

:16:06.:16:13.

Falklands has never stopped. Royal Navy have confirmed that HMS

:16:13.:16:18.

Dauntless will leave on Wednesday for a six-month deployment to the

:16:18.:16:23.

South Atlantic. They say the timing, almost exactly 30 years after the

:16:23.:16:33.
:16:33.:16:36.

task force left is purely a BBC Radio Solent will be live at

:16:36.:16:39.

the Round Tower in Portsmouth on Thursday with a special programme

:16:39.:16:43.

commemorating the day the task force left the city. A new state of

:16:43.:16:48.

the art park has an open for young people in and around Hampshire. It

:16:48.:16:53.

has been funded by the Royal Air Force Benevolent Fund as part of a

:16:53.:16:58.

programme to help the families of servicemen and women. They believe

:16:58.:17:02.

they should support people at home as well as serving on the front

:17:02.:17:09.

line but think the two go hand in hand. This games area sits on the

:17:09.:17:16.

Park estate. 140 houses filled by men and women working at the Royal

:17:16.:17:20.

Air Force. Today is the opening but the families have been giving it a

:17:20.:17:25.

trial run. Before this, they did not have a focal meeting point.

:17:26.:17:30.

When parents go on tour, especially with two parents serving, it is

:17:30.:17:33.

frustrating for the children because they think that they are

:17:33.:17:36.

missing out because they have not got their parents at have to move

:17:36.:17:41.

every couple of years and do not have friends or very long. This

:17:41.:17:46.

makes a big difference. I come here nearly every day and you can meet

:17:46.:17:50.

up with other friends and talk about problems and be there for

:17:50.:17:57.

them. It is not a complete distraction. It is my birthday.

:17:57.:18:04.

This is the second time of my dad has gone away. It cost �200,000 to

:18:04.:18:09.

build but it is part of a �24 million programme being driven by

:18:09.:18:15.

the Royal Air Force Benevolent Fund. We have got 40 play parks and 80

:18:15.:18:24.

youth workers and 1,600 children's -- children are benefiting. We are

:18:24.:18:29.

supporting people at home and that is the bedrock of what we do abroad.

:18:29.:18:34.

The benevolent fund is providing a facility to keep families happy. We

:18:34.:18:39.

rely on their support for what we are doing. They seem pleased by the

:18:39.:18:44.

investment. A small way to relieving some of the strainer on

:18:44.:18:54.
:18:54.:18:54.

RAF parents at home and people on Sport. Six games left! Exciting,

:18:54.:19:01.

isn't it? As exciting as ever and Southampton will not have one of

:19:01.:19:05.

their top strikers, out for the season because of foot surgery.

:19:05.:19:11.

This is what happened at the weekend. We are watching

:19:11.:19:16.

Southampton and Reading had the top of the Championship. Anton

:19:16.:19:23.

Zingaravitch here. 1-0 behind. What a comeback at Upton Park. Kaspars

:19:23.:19:30.

Gorkss with the equaliser. It ended 3-1 after a penalty by Ian Harte in

:19:30.:19:38.

the second half. But then it became 4-2. It was a fantastic result for

:19:38.:19:43.

the Royals. Southampton surrendered a poor defeat at Blackpool. His

:19:43.:19:48.

penalty saved and they conceded themselves. Stephen Dobbie with a

:19:48.:19:52.

double and Ian Evatt with a header. Jason Roberts of flying at the

:19:52.:19:59.

moment. As soon as I have come to the club, that is the way that they

:19:59.:20:03.

have been preparing for every game hands doing that is a positive but

:20:03.:20:07.

it is just three points and will not been anything if we get a

:20:07.:20:15.

negative result in the next game. Reading could go top on Friday if

:20:15.:20:25.
:20:25.:20:26.

they beat Leeds. So let's start the round up with Brighton's crucial

:20:26.:20:29.

point against play off rivals Middlesbrough. There was not much

:20:29.:20:34.

between them at the stadium. The visitors got in front just past the

:20:34.:20:40.

hour. The teams and players must be brave in the final weeks and this

:20:40.:20:49.

play was just that with a diving header. -- player. They were pretty

:20:49.:20:56.

dangerous as well. The Portsmouth boss is pleased to be based in

:20:56.:20:59.

Southampton on Saturday had hoped it will be a good stage to bounce

:20:59.:21:04.

back from their defeat against Burnley. Level after David Norris

:21:04.:21:11.

but Burnley run away with it in the second half. Charlie Austin backed

:21:11.:21:16.

a hat-trick in 16 minutes as Portsmouth slumped. Almost

:21:16.:21:20.

dominated long periods against Yeovil in League One. But they had

:21:20.:21:25.

to settle for a draw. Crawley fought out a draw with Burton

:21:26.:21:31.

along the way, fascinating. Everybody was looking everywhere.

:24:04.:24:09.

That was quite something, up there, I have got to admit. Did it feel

like you were back at the Olympics? I thought I had not done that for a

day that will be remembered for the people that took part for many

temperature of just nine. Much colder after last week's very warm

:25:21.:25:28.

temperatures. We will get a bit of rain in northern areas. Cloud, some

clear spells and just above freezing. Not as cold as last night.

:25:33.:25:38.

Six and seven degrees. Tomorrow will be bright with its sunshine

areas with temperatures dropping towards freezing. We could have

snow a cross the hilltops in the north and west. A couple of

The risk of showers continue on Wednesday morning until midday.

Friday and a more settled team. Temperatures start increasing but

very slowly. This week we can expect rain in the form of showers
