:09:47. > :09:51.complicated. There was a public inquiry. Wightink won that. The
:09:51. > :09:57.River Association did not appeal against that decision within the
:09:57. > :10:02.normal time period. Later the River Association asked the Secretary of
:10:02. > :10:05.State to reverse the planning decision. That was refused. Now

:10:30. > :10:33.damage to this important wildlife habitat which is protected under
:10:33. > :10:39.European law. Wightink agreed a three-year programme of recharging
:10:39. > :10:45.the land - essentially putting more mud on it. We have got the pictures
:10:45. > :10:49.of that. Bales of hay were put down to stop the new Mars from being

:10:59. > :11:04.Wightink response that more work cannot be done until next winter

:11:09. > :11:14.because at every stage the planning process supported their ferry

:12:57. > :13:02.It was not just the people that needed protection from the green.
:13:02. > :13:12.It has some of the exhibits also. We have covered them because of the

:15:31. > :15:34.their final moves. Reading are unlikely to bring anybody else in.
:15:34. > :15:40.Portsmouth probably need to. Most of the squads seem OK at the moment
:15:40. > :15:44.but Southampton had been promising new blood and they have signed
:15:44. > :15:48.Emmanuel Mayuka on a five-year deal. He caught the eye when he helped
:15:48. > :15:52.his country win the African Cup of Nations this year. The 21-year-old
:15:52. > :15:56.finished as top scorer in the tournament and has joined from a

:16:25. > :16:25.
:16:25. > :16:32.deliberate back-pass. After controversy came class. This folly
:16:32. > :16:36.put St 3 up. And there was a memorable moment for this player.
:16:37. > :16:41.This was his first senior goal. They looked very comfortable on the
:16:41. > :16:51.football. In the second half, they passed the ball well. I'll
:16:51. > :17:01.impressed. Reading were given a tougher ride there by Peterborough.
:17:01. > :17:01.
:17:01. > :17:08.Bidborough's Paul Taylor got the first goal. -- Peterborough. They
:17:08. > :17:16.were real day-in as this cross surprised everyone. The winner came
:17:16. > :17:23.as this player put this into his own net. It was good. We scored
:17:23. > :17:27.three goals. We came close a few times but we need to be better and
:17:27. > :17:31.we are well aware of that. Paralympic opening ceremony takes
:17:31. > :17:35.place tonight and it is time to introduce you to some more local
:17:35. > :17:38.athletes are will be competing. We went to visit the D B sitting
:17:38. > :17:43.volleyball team, who include several players from the south -
:17:43. > :17:47.all with extraordinary stories. Before player Martine Wright, her
:17:47. > :17:52.appearance at these Games is proof of the power of sport to help
:17:52. > :17:57.overcome the greatest adversity. She lost her legs in the London

:18:10. > :18:14.to feel sorry for myself for the rest of my life or I had to get up
:18:14. > :18:17.and get on with my life. Through playing the sport, she met Jodi
:18:17. > :18:21.Hill from Hampshire, and they have been working towards competing in
:18:21. > :18:25.the Paralympics together. But this was to be the first time that Great
:18:25. > :18:28.Britain had entered a team in the sport. Although the host nation
:18:28. > :18:32.qualify automatically for the Games, the team were told they would have
:18:33. > :18:36.to earn the right to wear that GB tracksuit. It meant months of hard
:18:36. > :18:40.work to push their stand up and prove they were good enough to
:18:40. > :18:47.compete. In March this year, the British Paralympic Association
:18:47. > :18:50.agreed the team would enter the Games. It is such an achievement
:18:50. > :18:55.for any one and I just can't find words to describe it. You might go
:18:55. > :19:02.through the most traumatic things in your life but you can get over
:19:02. > :19:08.them and if you have the love and support of your family, it helps.
:19:08. > :19:11.Sport has given me a healing process. You can get anything.
:19:11. > :19:20.Having earned their place, Martine hopes she and her team will help
:19:20. > :19:24.Let's stay on a Paralympic team because Ben Quilter from Sussex
:19:24. > :19:28.will tomorrow step out onto the judo mat. The former Chichester
:19:28. > :19:33.university student from Brighton says Wing a gold medal would be the
:19:33. > :19:41.highlight of his career. -- winning. World champion, European champion
:19:41. > :19:45.and now going for gold. Ben Quilter has risen up the rankings since
:19:45. > :19:51.finishing 5th that Beijing four years ago. I am good enough to win
:19:51. > :19:56.it. I will be going there hoping to win a medal but hopefully it will
:19:56. > :20:01.be a nice shiny gold one. He first started judo aged seven. By aged 10,
:20:01. > :20:05.he had been diagnosed with a degenerative sight condition. The
:20:05. > :20:09.physically, it is the same. A few rule changes which mean it can be
:20:09. > :20:13.more difficult to change some of the tactical elements. But it is
:20:13. > :20:18.the same sort of thing so it is great to be a part of it. At home,
:20:18. > :20:22.for Ben and fiancee Francesca, the nerves are on two front. They are
:20:22. > :20:27.also planning their wedding for after the Games. I can remember to
:20:27. > :20:34.this day the atmosphere in China, especially in the final set, and it
:20:34. > :20:37.was out of this world. For us to have it and for us not to be a
:20:37. > :20:42.family out there, watching it be in Britain and everyone around being
:20:43. > :20:45.British, will be amazing. The fore now it is time to focus on the
:20:45. > :20:49.sport but for Ben, the Paralympics are about more than what happens on
:20:49. > :20:54.the map. The state of disabled people having a go at sport is
:20:54. > :20:59.changing. Hopefully people will recognise us as athletes that
:20:59. > :21:09.happened have a disability. I think it is a real positive change for
:21:09. > :21:11.
:21:11. > :21:15.Paralympic sport as a sport. There has been no play today for
:21:15. > :21:18.Somerset against Surrey. Let's go back in time because one
:21:18. > :21:22.of the lesser-known battles of the Second World War was that to
:21:22. > :21:28.produce enough food keep the country growing. At the beginning
:21:28. > :21:31.of the war in 1939, two thirds of Britain's food was imported. To
:21:31. > :21:36.feed the country, an agricultural revolution had to take place, known
:21:36. > :21:39.as Dig For Victory. A new BBC TV series is going to tell the story

:21:44. > :21:49.going back in time at Manor Farm in Hampshire.
:21:49. > :21:52.This is a place that is proud to be old fashioned. It is stuffed with
:21:53. > :21:59.relics from a bygone era and full of period atmosphere. That's why it

:22:36. > :22:42.their hair and the lipstick, the farmer's wife has agreed to give me
:22:42. > :22:47.a tour. Be this is my food and plate storage. I have all sorts of
:22:47. > :22:56.things here. A you the envy of your neighbour's? Are I think so. A

:23:11. > :23:16.you more. I am always more interested in something by the end
:23:16. > :23:20.and I was at the beginning. Something all the presenters have
