Here are the headlines: Drawing strength and inspiration from the

:00:11.:00:15.

widow of a Red Arrows pilot as she unveiled a memorial to her late

:00:15.:00:23.

husband. Her he had a passion for achieving and for flying and for

:00:23.:00:28.

being a wonderful person. Do you recognise this man? The police need

:00:28.:00:33.

to speak to him about the murder of a great grandmother in her own home.

:00:33.:00:38.

As final preparations are made for tonight's opening ceremony we need

:00:38.:00:44.

some of our public hopefuls. Join me later to find out why we

:00:44.:00:54.
:00:54.:01:02.

A Red Arrows pilot has spoken of the strength and inspiration the

:01:02.:01:09.

display team has drawn from the widow of one of their team members.

:01:09.:01:15.

Jon Egging was killed when his plane crashed one year ago. Flight

Lieutenant Ben Plank was speaking on the day Emma Egging opened a

memorial. The charitable trust aims to help young people from this at

that has to backgrounds. -- from disadvantaged backgrounds.

:01:38.:01:45.

I hope people think of the Red Arrows and Fink of my husband and

:01:45.:01:52.

think about achieving what they would like to -- think of my

:01:52.:02:01.

husband. Jon Egging was killed when his jet

:02:01.:02:10.

crashed. The final seconds were captured on camera. For the next

:02:10.:02:13.

few days Emma Egging will be watching when the Red Arrows

:02:13.:02:19.

perform once again. It is the right place for them. It

:02:19.:02:24.

is the right thing to do. Seeing the Red Arrows flying at the

:02:24.:02:29.

Festival will be important. I am looking forward to it as much as

:02:29.:02:37.

anybody else. At a reception in Bournemouth today Emma Egging

:02:37.:02:45.

thanked the people for the support and sympathy. Her team mates -- the

:02:45.:02:50.

Red Arrows team mates said they had drawn inspiration from her. She has

:02:50.:03:00.
:03:00.:03:05.

been a tower of strength. Aye met Jon Egging and was inspired. A

:03:05.:03:10.

trust has been set up to help disadvantaged young people. He had

:03:11.:03:14.

a passion for achieving and flying and also for being a wonderful

:03:14.:03:20.

person. A in aftermath of last year's crash

:03:20.:03:24.

the Ministry of Defence began an investigation. An official report

:03:24.:03:28.

is expected to be published in a few months' time. That will be

:03:28.:03:32.

followed by inquests into the death of Jon Egging.

:03:32.:03:36.

This memorial is a reminder of the tragedy last summer. Everyone

:03:36.:03:42.

connected with Jon Egging hopes that his story will act as the

:03:42.:03:50.

inspiration to future generations That memorial standing proudly in

:03:50.:03:56.

Bournemouth. Police have released CCTV footage

:03:56.:04:00.

of a man they want to speak to as part of their investigation into

:04:00.:04:03.

the murder of an Delia Hughes. 85- year-old great-grandmother was by

:04:04.:04:11.

beaten to death in her flat in Southampton 11 days ago.

:04:11.:04:16.

The body of Delia Hughes was found in her flat on the evening of

:04:16.:04:20.

Saturday August 18th. She died of several blows to the head. That

:04:20.:04:27.

morning this man was seen not far from the home of Delia Hughes.

:04:27.:04:32.

Wearing a grey topper, jeans, and trainers, he was captured on CCTV.

:04:32.:04:37.

Detectives say it is imperative they speak to him as a matter of

:04:37.:04:47.
:04:47.:04:47.

urgency. I need to find out what they saw when the they were in the

:04:47.:04:53.

area. Last night more than 150 residents came to a public meeting

:04:53.:04:57.

to hear an update on the investigation. They described their

:04:57.:05:00.

shot at a brutal murder in a quiet community. Detectives revealed

:05:01.:05:05.

there are still trying to establish a motive. They have not ruled out a

:05:05.:05:08.

burglary that went wrong. The say that is one of many lines of

:05:08.:05:18.

inquiry. We're still not sure. That is why the top to the community. --

:05:18.:05:25.

by a we talk to the community. Detectives say this man was in the

:05:25.:05:31.

caveat at their crucial time. They what everyone who knows him to come

:05:31.:05:38.

forward. -- the what anyone who knows him.

:05:38.:05:42.

A woman has been jailed after attending to rob a shop with a toy

:05:42.:05:47.

gun. The women took the fair firearm -- the fake firearm into a

:05:47.:05:53.

sandwich shop and demanded cash. She fled empty-handed. She has been

:05:53.:05:58.

sentenced to 30 months in prison. Three men have appeared at

:05:58.:06:01.

Winchester Crown Court charged with the murder of a man in Dorset.

:06:01.:06:07.

Reece Menzies was found shot dead at his home in July. Wayne

:06:07.:06:13.

Stephenson, Jerome Parkinson, and Keifer Hutchinson, were remanded in

:06:13.:06:18.

custody under due to appear in court in November.

-- and argued to. To developers have had their

:06:25.:06:29.

convictions quashed. Harvey week and Alastair Collier had intended

:06:29.:06:33.

to build houses that sandbanks that planning permission was refused by

:06:33.:06:40.

the council. Today a judge said the men had no case to answer.

:06:40.:06:46.

After two years, two developers have feared their name. Obviously

:06:46.:06:53.

relieved. Also annoyed by something which should never have taken place.

:06:53.:07:03.
:07:03.:07:04.

I was 100 per said innocent of accusations. Harvey Lee and

:07:04.:07:07.

Alastair Collier had wanted to build here in Sandbanks, but

:07:07.:07:13.

protected trees meant no planning permission. Those trees later died

:07:13.:07:18.

after heart was removed, a practice known as ring barking. Both men

:07:18.:07:23.

were convicted of committing the damage. Today at judge dismissed

:07:23.:07:26.

the case. This has been an expensive case for both defendants.

:07:26.:07:31.

The court heard how one of the defendants had spent nearly �50,000,

:07:31.:07:36.

and another dependent had spent �27,000 defending their name. Their

:07:36.:07:41.

legal teams asked if the council could be a these costs, but at the

:07:41.:07:46.

consideration the judge said un. The money will come from a national

:07:46.:07:56.
:07:56.:07:58.

pot. -- the judge said know. As much as I appreciate the need to

:07:58.:08:04.

prosecutes, one would like to see the people in court, the way they

:08:04.:08:10.

went about it was the wrong way. The council said it would study the

:08:10.:08:14.

implications of the judgment carefully. The land at Sandbanks

:08:14.:08:20.

now has new owners. The cheese will be replaced.

:08:20.:08:24.

The jury in the trial of a rapper who is accused of raping a teenager

:08:24.:08:29.

in Chichester has been discharged for legal reasons. Aggro Santos, up

for reality TV show contestant and musician. Aggro Santos and another

:08:38.:08:43.

person were accused. They have denied the charges.

A couple charged with cruelty to their baby daughter after she was

Tomas Grzonka and Elzbieta Natalia Romanowicz will stand trial in

December. Opponents of the Wightink ferry

:09:08.:09:11.

service from Lymington to Yarmouth have launched legal action against

:09:11.:09:15.

the company. They claim the outcome of a public inquiry was unlot will

:09:15.:09:21.

and are seeking judicial review. The introduction of larger ferries

:09:21.:09:24.

and a modified birth at Lymington river.

:09:24.:09:29.

I thought this was all done and dusted months ago?

:09:29.:09:34.

So did Wightink and so that almost everyone else. Three years ago

:09:34.:09:37.

Wightink what larger ferries. That meant altering the birth in the

:09:37.:09:41.

river. The Lymington River Association objected. This is

:09:41.:09:47.

complicated. There was a public inquiry. Wightink won that. The

:09:47.:09:51.

River Association did not appeal against that decision within the

:09:51.:09:57.

normal time period. Later the River Association asked the Secretary of

:09:57.:10:02.

State to reverse the planning decision. That was refused. Now

:10:02.:10:05.

look at the River Association is trying again, claiming that the

:10:05.:10:07.

consequences of the planning inspector's decision are not much

:10:07.:10:14.

plot will and asking for a judicial review of the minister's refusal to

:10:14.:10:18.

over rule. This is all about the mudflats next

:10:18.:10:22.

to the ferry berth. Yes, probably. There was a long

:10:22.:10:25.

argument about whether the wash from the new ferries was causing

:10:25.:10:29.

damage to this important wildlife habitat which is protected under

:10:30.:10:33.

European law. Wightink agreed a three-year programme of recharging

:10:33.:10:39.

the land - essentially putting more mud on it. We have got the pictures

:10:39.:10:45.

of that. Bales of hay were put down to stop the new Mars from being

:10:45.:10:49.

washed away. Now here are some pictures from the

:10:49.:10:53.

light in River Association. It says these prove the project have failed.

:10:54.:10:59.

Wightink response that more work cannot be done until next winter

:10:59.:11:04.

because of wildlife concerns. Wightink is frustrated by all this

:11:04.:11:09.

because at every stage the planning process supported their ferry

:11:09.:11:14.

company. The River Association is seeking a protected cost order. It

:11:14.:11:21.

what it legal costs paid by the taxpayer. If that does not happen

:11:21.:11:23.

this application for judicial review could fall down.

:11:23.:11:30.

Thank you. The biggest airline at Southampton

:11:30.:11:32.

airport says a high level of tax on passengers as having an adverse

:11:32.:11:38.

effect on business. Flybe represent half of all traffic at the airport.

:11:38.:11:45.

A group of MPs want an economic analysis.

:11:45.:11:49.

Flybe says regional economies outside London need all the help

:11:49.:11:55.

they can get. Still to come - we meet two of our

:11:55.:12:02.

Paralympic hopefuls. And find out why I have had my hair

:12:02.:12:12.
:12:12.:12:12.

down and put my lipstick on to go The wet weather has scuppered some

:12:12.:12:17.

of their Benson the first day of the Great Dorset Steam Fair.

:12:17.:12:20.

Motorbike and track displays have been cancelled to preserve the

:12:20.:12:23.

arena for the next few days of the show. The fear is expected to

:12:23.:12:31.

attract 200,000 visitors. A Great Dorset Steam Fair is huge.

:12:31.:12:37.

The site extends to 600 acres. Organisers reckon it is bigger than

:12:37.:12:40.

the Glastonbury Festival. In common with Glastonbury there is an issue

:12:40.:12:48.

with mud. But they are confident that will dry out. Some events have

:12:48.:12:53.

had to be cancelled today. People have been enjoying plenty of steam.

:12:53.:12:57.

It was not just the people that needed protection from the green.

:12:57.:13:02.

It has some of the exhibits also. We have covered them because of the

:13:02.:13:12.
:13:12.:13:19.

grass underneath. Rena ruins it. -- Many of these engines are more than

:13:19.:13:29.
:13:29.:13:29.

100 years old. They are still battling. We are in raptures. This

:13:29.:13:33.

is capable of generating vast amounts of power. There is

:13:33.:13:39.

something magic about seeing machines like this. Here they are

:13:39.:13:47.

working. The Great Dorset Steam Fair celebrates the way things used

:13:47.:13:52.

to be done. It started small 40 years ago. This man has drawn up

:13:52.:13:59.

with it. It will always be my that sure as far as I am concerned. He

:13:59.:14:08.

has left a tremendous legacy. Sunday and 200,000 people will have

:14:08.:14:12.

come from near and far too what is now the biggest steam and vintage

:14:12.:14:18.

show in the world. Very interesting. You can see a lot of machines that

:14:19.:14:27.

are very rare. All the equipment, all the tools, all the skills.

:14:28.:14:33.

does it bring out a little boy in every one question mark this is it.

:14:33.:14:39.

Boys playing with toys. Who else would be stood in the middle of a

:14:39.:14:46.

field in the pouring rain enjoying life? They should get away from the

:14:46.:14:53.

computers and get out here. It is brilliant. We have just had another

:14:53.:15:00.

delivery of call. During the fear they will get through 200,000

:15:00.:15:08.

tonnes of coal. It is the smell, the best, that

:15:08.:15:18.
:15:18.:15:20.

And Alexis will have the weather in a few moments. The transfer window

:15:20.:15:26.

is about to close. 11pm Friday night will be when the teams make

:15:26.:15:31.

their final moves. Reading are unlikely to bring anybody else in.

:15:31.:15:34.

Portsmouth probably need to. Most of the squads seem OK at the moment

:15:34.:15:40.

but Southampton had been promising new blood and they have signed

:15:40.:15:44.

Emmanuel Mayuka on a five-year deal. He caught the eye when he helped

:15:44.:15:48.

his country win the African Cup of Nations this year. The 21-year-old

:15:48.:15:52.

finished as top scorer in the tournament and has joined from a

:15:52.:15:56.

Swiss side. He could make his debut against Manchester United on Sunday.

:15:57.:16:01.

Southampton were matched last night by a Stevenage. 11 changes were

:16:01.:16:06.

made to the team with their Japanese striker putting them in

:16:06.:16:10.

front early in the second half. There was a hint of good fortune

:16:10.:16:15.

early in the second when this miskick was judged to be a

:16:15.:16:25.
:16:25.:16:25.

deliberate back-pass. After controversy came class. This folly

:16:25.:16:32.

put St 3 up. And there was a memorable moment for this player.

:16:32.:16:36.

This was his first senior goal. They looked very comfortable on the

:16:37.:16:41.

football. In the second half, they passed the ball well. I'll

:16:41.:16:51.

impressed. Reading were given a tougher ride there by Peterborough.

:16:51.:17:01.
:17:01.:17:01.

Bidborough's Paul Taylor got the first goal. -- Peterborough. They

:17:01.:17:08.

were real day-in as this cross surprised everyone. The winner came

:17:08.:17:16.

as this player put this into his own net. It was good. We scored

:17:16.:17:23.

three goals. We came close a few times but we need to be better and

:17:23.:17:27.

we are well aware of that. Paralympic opening ceremony takes

:17:27.:17:31.

place tonight and it is time to introduce you to some more local

:17:31.:17:35.

athletes are will be competing. We went to visit the D B sitting

:17:35.:17:38.

volleyball team, who include several players from the south -

:17:38.:17:43.

all with extraordinary stories. Before player Martine Wright, her

:17:43.:17:47.

appearance at these Games is proof of the power of sport to help

:17:47.:17:52.

overcome the greatest adversity. She lost her legs in the London

:17:52.:17:57.

bombings and began playing after recovering from her injuries.

:17:57.:18:02.

never dream of something in your worst nightmares that you would be

:18:02.:18:07.

involved in the atrocities that happened on 7/7. I that I was going

:18:07.:18:10.

to feel sorry for myself for the rest of my life or I had to get up

:18:10.:18:14.

and get on with my life. Through playing the sport, she met Jodi

:18:14.:18:17.

Hill from Hampshire, and they have been working towards competing in

:18:17.:18:21.

the Paralympics together. But this was to be the first time that Great

:18:21.:18:25.

Britain had entered a team in the sport. Although the host nation

:18:25.:18:28.

qualify automatically for the Games, the team were told they would have

:18:28.:18:32.

to earn the right to wear that GB tracksuit. It meant months of hard

:18:33.:18:36.

work to push their stand up and prove they were good enough to

:18:36.:18:40.

compete. In March this year, the British Paralympic Association

:18:40.:18:47.

agreed the team would enter the Games. It is such an achievement

:18:47.:18:50.

for any one and I just can't find words to describe it. You might go

:18:50.:18:55.

through the most traumatic things in your life but you can get over

:18:55.:19:02.

them and if you have the love and support of your family, it helps.

:19:02.:19:08.

Sport has given me a healing process. You can get anything.

:19:08.:19:11.

Having earned their place, Martine hopes she and her team will help

:19:11.:19:20.

Let's stay on a Paralympic team because Ben Quilter from Sussex

:19:20.:19:24.

will tomorrow step out onto the judo mat. The former Chichester

:19:24.:19:28.

university student from Brighton says Wing a gold medal would be the

:19:28.:19:33.

highlight of his career. -- winning. World champion, European champion

:19:33.:19:41.

and now going for gold. Ben Quilter has risen up the rankings since

:19:41.:19:45.

finishing 5th that Beijing four years ago. I am good enough to win

:19:45.:19:51.

it. I will be going there hoping to win a medal but hopefully it will

:19:51.:19:56.

be a nice shiny gold one. He first started judo aged seven. By aged 10,

:19:56.:20:01.

he had been diagnosed with a degenerative sight condition. The

:20:01.:20:05.

physically, it is the same. A few rule changes which mean it can be

:20:05.:20:09.

more difficult to change some of the tactical elements. But it is

:20:09.:20:13.

the same sort of thing so it is great to be a part of it. At home,

:20:13.:20:18.

for Ben and fiancee Francesca, the nerves are on two front. They are

:20:18.:20:22.

also planning their wedding for after the Games. I can remember to

:20:22.:20:27.

this day the atmosphere in China, especially in the final set, and it

:20:27.:20:34.

was out of this world. For us to have it and for us not to be a

:20:34.:20:37.

family out there, watching it be in Britain and everyone around being

:20:37.:20:42.

British, will be amazing. The fore now it is time to focus on the

:20:43.:20:45.

sport but for Ben, the Paralympics are about more than what happens on

:20:45.:20:49.

the map. The state of disabled people having a go at sport is

:20:49.:20:54.

changing. Hopefully people will recognise us as athletes that

:20:54.:20:59.

happened have a disability. I think it is a real positive change for

:20:59.:21:09.
:21:09.:21:11.

Paralympic sport as a sport. There has been no play today for

:21:11.:21:15.

Somerset against Surrey. Let's go back in time because one

:21:15.:21:18.

of the lesser-known battles of the Second World War was that to

:21:18.:21:22.

produce enough food keep the country growing. At the beginning

:21:22.:21:28.

of the war in 1939, two thirds of Britain's food was imported. To

:21:28.:21:31.

feed the country, an agricultural revolution had to take place, known

:21:31.:21:36.

as Dig For Victory. A new BBC TV series is going to tell the story

:21:36.:21:39.

of that and it is based in this region. Chrissy Sturt has been

:21:39.:21:44.

going back in time at Manor Farm in Hampshire.

:21:44.:21:49.

This is a place that is proud to be old fashioned. It is stuffed with

:21:49.:21:52.

relics from a bygone era and full of period atmosphere. That's why it

:21:53.:21:59.

has been chosen as the setting for a brand new series.

:21:59.:22:02.

Church will call the France or Britain the front line. --

:22:03.:22:08.

Churchill called the farms of a Briton. With acute food shortages,

:22:08.:22:16.

farmers had to rise to a huge challenge to feed the nation. This

:22:16.:22:20.

series sense a trio of time- travelling historians back to the

:22:20.:22:24.

1940s, for a taste of what life was really like. While the production

:22:24.:22:28.

team has been filming, parts of this farm have been very much off-

:22:28.:22:32.

limits to the general public. But since I have the shoes, the dress,

:22:32.:22:36.

their hair and the lipstick, the farmer's wife has agreed to give me

:22:36.:22:42.

a tour. Be this is my food and plate storage. I have all sorts of

:22:42.:22:47.

things here. A you the envy of your neighbour's? Are I think so. A

:22:47.:22:56.

paraffin stove was another mod con for the from a's wife. Once or oil

:22:56.:23:01.

lamps are lit, the whole thing heats up. You can boil and Fry and

:23:01.:23:08.

bake. No matter how much research you do, the actual doing it teaches

:23:08.:23:11.

you more. I am always more interested in something by the end

:23:11.:23:16.

and I was at the beginning. Something all the presenters have

:23:16.:23:20.

to do is get their hands dirty. much previous series, we have seen

:23:20.:23:25.

you hand milking so does this feel like a huge leap forward? It does,

:23:25.:23:32.

indeed, because I have sustained one of two injuries. I chief farmer

:23:32.:23:36.

David told me exactly how to use this and it made life so much

:23:36.:23:41.

easier. For historian Alex, filming the series has brought home the

:23:41.:23:46.
