:00:00. > 3:59:59George. Thank you. That's all so it's goodbye from me and on BBC One
:00:00. > :00:11.we Hello. Welcome to Saturday.
:00:12. > :00:17.Tonight, an impossible task. The warning that the law cannot keep up
:00:18. > :00:22.with so`called legal highs. The I was devastated. It is like someone
:00:23. > :00:26.has ripped my heart out and there is nothing you can do about that. Just
:00:27. > :00:30.nothing you can do. Rolling of the production line in
:00:31. > :00:36.record numbers. A jobs boost in Sussex for a luxury car maker.
:00:37. > :00:41.Inspired by his surroundings, the Constable exhibition at Petworth
:00:42. > :00:47.House where the artist stayed. The winner is Natasha. The Isle of Wight
:00:48. > :00:51.teenager who scooped the top award of young seller of the year after
:00:52. > :00:56.her extraordinary Channel crossing. Winning the award was amazing.
:00:57. > :01:11.Wasn't it? Completely out of the blue.
:01:12. > :01:15.A former government drugs adviser from Hampshire has told BBC South
:01:16. > :01:19.that policing so`called legal highs is an impossible task. Legal highs
:01:20. > :01:24.are substances which produce similar effects to illegal drugs such as
:01:25. > :01:27.cocaine, cannabis and existed, but which are not controlled under the
:01:28. > :01:30.Misuse of Drugs Act. The government is to review the Act this month
:01:31. > :01:36.after the number of people to die from legal highs rose to 52 last
:01:37. > :01:38.year, that is an average of one a week. We have been to meet one
:01:39. > :01:43.family living with the consequences of legal highs.
:01:44. > :01:48.To lose your only son is like someone has ripped my heart out.
:01:49. > :01:56.There is nothing you can do about that. This man's sign ex`are entered
:01:57. > :02:00.with a legal Hayek called AMT. He collapsed and died in hospital two
:02:01. > :02:03.days later. He had not taken pills on the day that this happened. We
:02:04. > :02:11.know he took the pills over the weekend. He felt pain because his
:02:12. > :02:14.internal organs were heating up, and basically cooking. Unfortunately,
:02:15. > :02:18.Christopher is not alone. Similar shadows have been cast over ten
:02:19. > :02:22.families in the South region over the past two years. Legal highs
:02:23. > :02:26.popularity is growing fast and loopholes mean you can buy them on
:02:27. > :02:32.high Street across the South. All the seller has to do is make sure
:02:33. > :02:36.the packaging says not vitamin consumption and suggest they use for
:02:37. > :02:39.scientific experiments. In reality, people are consuming them to
:02:40. > :02:43.irritate the effects of illegal drugs. While this loophole exists,
:02:44. > :02:46.there is not about the police can do. That is why the government has
:02:47. > :02:51.ordered review into the Misuse of Drugs Act, but one former policy
:02:52. > :02:55.adviser says they may as well not bother. It may be that there is no
:02:56. > :02:59.single solution to these things. They may continue to be supplied.
:03:00. > :03:03.Remember, when you could buy them from the Internet, you can buy them
:03:04. > :03:08.from suppliers who are based outside the jurisdiction, and it is almost
:03:09. > :03:13.impossible to control that. As soon as substances get bent, two or pop
:03:14. > :03:18.up elsewhere. 150 new jobs in the past two years. So is this the
:03:19. > :03:21.impossible task? We are ahead of the game compared to the rest of Europe,
:03:22. > :03:26.but the fact is that we are still having to deal with new substances,
:03:27. > :03:29.and that is why the review will look at the framework and legislation as
:03:30. > :03:34.to whether that has to be amended to deal with the situation. Authorities
:03:35. > :03:38.are so concerned about that term legal Hayek that they now prefer to
:03:39. > :03:43.call them psychoactive substances, so if you can't police them, they
:03:44. > :03:47.need rebranding. The OUR biggest message around the legal highs is
:03:48. > :03:51.not to call them a legal highs, because it is misleading to call
:03:52. > :03:54.them that. That is perhaps part of the problem. Whatever they are
:03:55. > :03:58.called, they are having a devastating impact. It is not only
:03:59. > :04:02.your life that will impact on, it is your family's life, and your
:04:03. > :04:06.friends, and everyone who has known you. They will feel the impact,
:04:07. > :04:17.because it is a heartbreaking thing to do. Christopher Scott's sister
:04:18. > :04:20.ending that report. The common factor Rolls`Royce is to create 100
:04:21. > :04:25.new jobs at its Goodwood site. Most of the positions will be on the
:04:26. > :04:28.Manufacturing side as the company responds to increasing demand. The
:04:29. > :04:32.announcement coincides with Rolls`Royce revealing that 2013 saw
:04:33. > :04:36.its highest ever annual sales, before the inner row that its
:04:37. > :04:43.figures have increased. Global demand is driving its success.
:04:44. > :04:47.It is a distinctly British brand, but Rolls`Royce has increasing
:04:48. > :04:52.global appeal. In 2013, sales were up for the faulty in a row,
:04:53. > :04:56.increasing by 2%. In response, the company is creating new jobs. The
:04:57. > :05:02.iMac any success is good for the local community as we grow, we bring
:05:03. > :05:08.on more people on board, and we're confident that 2014 will be strong
:05:09. > :05:11.year for us. Rolls`Royce is not the only luxury brand selling well
:05:12. > :05:16.overseas. Boat builder sun`seeker is now under Chinese ownership.
:05:17. > :05:19.Production remains in Poole, but boats rarely stay in the UK. At the
:05:20. > :05:25.London Boat Show this week, its orders are all for export. Is seeing
:05:26. > :05:31.increasing demand from Asia and Mexico. Rolls`Royce saw orders from
:05:32. > :05:34.the middle east increase last year, while China overtook the United
:05:35. > :05:39.States as its biggest market. That was despite fears the Chinese might
:05:40. > :05:45.cut back on luxury spending. We saw a big change in the government last
:05:46. > :05:48.year, and that caused some traders in the marketplace. There is a much
:05:49. > :05:52.greater degree of confidence and more understanding which way the
:05:53. > :05:56.government wants to go in China, and I'm confident we will see some good
:05:57. > :06:01.growth, and the growth we experienced in 2013 will continue
:06:02. > :06:05.into 2014. Become any attribute some of that success to a truly bespoke
:06:06. > :06:08.service, accommodating all kinds of requests. One landowner had the
:06:09. > :06:14.interior of his car created using timber from a tree on his estate. A
:06:15. > :06:18.superstition is customer has had they birthright recreated in lights
:06:19. > :06:22.in the headlining. Creating new manufacturing jobs will allow the
:06:23. > :06:26.company to increase production. Order books for the new model are
:06:27. > :06:30.already buoyant. Customers have to wait six months to get hold of one.
:06:31. > :06:35.The company is expanding into new markets as well, it places like
:06:36. > :06:38.Azerbaijan and Kazakhstan. 2014 could see this West Sussex company
:06:39. > :06:45.continue to build on its global success.
:06:46. > :06:48.A teenager has died after falling into a marina in Dorset. The
:06:49. > :06:52.18`year`old was pulled from the water at Weymouth Harbour by the
:06:53. > :06:56.RNLI eye in the early hours of this morning. He died later in hospital.
:06:57. > :06:59.They are looking into how the men came to be in the water, but his
:07:00. > :07:03.death is not being treated as suspicious.
:07:04. > :07:07.A major trunk showed `` trunk road in Wiltshire is closed due to
:07:08. > :07:11.flooding. The A303 near Winterbourne Stoke is shut due to waterlogged
:07:12. > :07:15.roads. Traffic is being diverted into the A36 any to Salisbury.
:07:16. > :07:19.Motorists are asked to allow each time their journeys. Many farmers
:07:20. > :07:21.are continuing to battle against the problems caused by heavy rain and
:07:22. > :07:26.flooding. Some have had to move livestock to
:07:27. > :07:29.higher ground or indoors. Others are concerned that crops will start to
:07:30. > :07:34.rot if we do not get dry weather soon. We have been talking to one
:07:35. > :07:39.farmer, who is in a Finn Dorset. We join him tonight.
:07:40. > :07:43.Yes, finds right across the region have been wet and very soggy since
:07:44. > :07:51.just before Christmas. Here on this farm, very close to the River Avon,
:07:52. > :07:55.the problem has been flooding fields and flooding roads. But top priority
:07:56. > :08:03.for everybody in this farm has been looking after the 450 cattle.
:08:04. > :08:07.Conditions for farmers have been atrocious. Here on the edge of
:08:08. > :08:11.Christchurch in Dorset, many fields are still under water. Some local
:08:12. > :08:17.roads are closed, a headache for drivers and for farmers trying to
:08:18. > :08:22.look after their animals. This man and his family have 450 cattle,
:08:23. > :08:30.including a big dairy herd. It does get you down at times, all can do.
:08:31. > :08:33.But you have to keep going? Yes. Some of these cattle have been moved
:08:34. > :08:42.out of their fields. The iMac yes, our fields have flooded. For health
:08:43. > :08:46.and safety, they needed to be moved. Along with the problems you've had
:08:47. > :08:51.with wet fields, you have also had an issue because one of the local
:08:52. > :08:55.roads has been closed. Yes. Two local roads have been closed, so we
:08:56. > :08:58.have extra traffic and some of the movements is three quarters of an
:08:59. > :09:05.hour getting back to the farm in rush hour period times. Said people
:09:06. > :09:10.are queueing outside your farm gate? Yes. Some farmers are worried about
:09:11. > :09:16.the damage done to their crops. Loss of revenue, earnings, and loss of
:09:17. > :09:22.crop. So you want that long dry spell? Yes. And quickly. Ballad till
:09:23. > :09:29.it does dry out, life on the farm will be far from easy. Well, the
:09:30. > :09:34.flooding problems are far from over. Dorset County Council is now working
:09:35. > :09:41.hard to prepare for ground water flooding. It says the area is now at
:09:42. > :09:44.risk. It says there are lots of interest `` useful information on
:09:45. > :09:49.the website. From there to new Christchurch, back to you.
:09:50. > :09:53.Thank you. The operators of a coach which crashed on the way back from a
:09:54. > :09:58.music festival, killing the driver and two passengers, has been
:09:59. > :10:05.disqualified from operating courtesy definitely. The great served up the
:10:06. > :10:09.road into 2012. Michael Molloy died along with Kerry Ogden and the coach
:10:10. > :10:14.driver Colin Dalby. A 20`year`old tyre burst. Merseypride's partners,
:10:15. > :10:19.David and Tracey Hannell, were banned from operating buses and
:10:20. > :10:23.coaches after a enquiry. A new way of doing kidney
:10:24. > :10:27.operations, which is less damaging to patients and help them recover
:10:28. > :10:31.more quickly, is being tested at South General `` Southampton General
:10:32. > :10:36.Hospital. It involves placing a tiny tube into the patient's side, which
:10:37. > :10:41.will help Ginny Stainsby Brooke `` destroyed by laser. Using tubes half
:10:42. > :10:45.the size and getting excellent results. It is the only hospital
:10:46. > :10:51.outside London using this mini technique. Our health correspondent
:10:52. > :10:55.watched of the operations. You could take the kids home. David Thompson
:10:56. > :11:00.has been in constant pain for nine months. He has a kidney stone as big
:11:01. > :11:06.as a thumb. A lot of people say it is the same as having both for
:11:07. > :11:10.ladies, that sort of pain. A unbearable Sundays. Sunday is close
:11:11. > :11:14.to tears and other days in tears and agony. I've been close to coming to
:11:15. > :11:19.the hospital and saying get a doubt, I can't take it any more. This is
:11:20. > :11:24.the stone. Surgeons will use a laser to destroy it. It will be guided to
:11:25. > :11:29.the kidney by a thin tube. Southampton is the first `` third
:11:30. > :11:33.hospital in the country to use this technique. Not many people have done
:11:34. > :11:37.it, and this is the second patient only. This is the cheap in the
:11:38. > :11:43.middle. It is four millimetres wide, less than half the width of the
:11:44. > :11:48.old`style tube beneath it. A consultant guides the tube into the
:11:49. > :11:53.body. This technique could be especially useful for children. The
:11:54. > :12:00.patients are obviously smaller, and tend to have more complex anatomy.
:12:01. > :12:07.Any micro procedure or minimally invasive procedure then what is
:12:08. > :12:13.available is going to be of great benefit. With the tube now in place,
:12:14. > :12:20.the laser gets to work. Is breaking it into dust. It is breaking it into
:12:21. > :12:26.tiny fragments and stone dust. Some of it will wash out, and some of it
:12:27. > :12:32.will disappear naturally. After 30 minutes, the job is almost done. It
:12:33. > :12:35.has gone very well. We are almost finished. There is hardly any
:12:36. > :12:40.bleeding. The stone has nearly disintegrated to this technique.
:12:41. > :12:47.Hopefully he can recover in time into their home. And he did. The
:12:48. > :12:51.very next day. School standards on the Isle of
:12:52. > :12:54.Wight will be debated by the local council tonight ` amid a crisis in
:12:55. > :12:57.standards. A report published in October by Hampshire County Council
:12:58. > :13:01.found that only one in ten secondary pupils on the island attends a good
:13:02. > :13:11.school. A number have been put in special measures.
:13:12. > :13:15.Still to come in this evening's South Today: Old wives' tales, or
:13:16. > :13:20.reliable sources for a weather forecast? We examine berries, cows
:13:21. > :13:23.and that red sky at night. He's one of Britain's best`loved
:13:24. > :13:28.artists, famous for his depiction of English landscapes. Now a new
:13:29. > :13:32.exhibition of the work of John Constable is opening at Petworth
:13:33. > :13:35.House in West Sussex. It features paintings and drawings from the time
:13:36. > :13:48.Constable spent at the house in 1834. Sean Killick has been getting
:13:49. > :13:53.a preview. It is a classic view of one of the
:13:54. > :14:01.most historic mansions in the South. John Constable also thought so and
:14:02. > :14:08.painted the leak in 1834. Constable is mainly known as a painter in oil
:14:09. > :14:10.but he also spent time with his sketchbook and what colours,
:14:11. > :14:22.inspired by the surrounding countryside. At this time he was
:14:23. > :14:33.quite cruelly. You get the impression that this visit cheered
:14:34. > :14:39.him up. On one occasion he described the landscape as the best landscape
:14:40. > :14:46.you could ever find for a picture. Now a selection of watercolours
:14:47. > :14:53.never shown together is being exhibited at Petworth House.
:14:54. > :14:59.This is of Chichester Cathedral hinted in 1834.
:15:00. > :15:06.This is a Rundle Castle, drawn also in 1834.
:15:07. > :15:11.The curator told me how his research for the exhibition has added to the
:15:12. > :15:21.knowledge of Constable's work in an unlikely way.
:15:22. > :15:26.It was clear that this represents a view of the Surrey Hills. That is
:15:27. > :15:32.the view I get from my kitchen window.
:15:33. > :15:43.The exhibition runs from Saturday until March 14, costing ?12 for
:15:44. > :15:50.adults. That is going to be some exhibition.
:15:51. > :16:05.Worth seeing. On to sport.
:16:06. > :16:09.An inspiring story from last year. A stellar cast list of top sailing
:16:10. > :16:13.names were in London for the prestigious Yachting Journalists
:16:14. > :16:16.Association awards. Southampton's round the world sailor Mike Golding
:16:17. > :16:20.received a special award while the young sailor of the year went to an
:16:21. > :16:23.inspirational teenager who took on a remarkable challenge in 2013. Joe
:16:24. > :16:33.Campbell was at Trinity House in London for us.
:16:34. > :16:47.Natasha Lambert never thought her cross`channel voyage would end here.
:16:48. > :16:52.She was here after being nominated for the title of young sailor of the
:16:53. > :17:04.year. She crossed the English Channel last summer in a boat
:17:05. > :17:13.adapted by her father. And the winner is Natasha Lambert.
:17:14. > :17:24.It was such a lovely surprise and an honour. You are determined when you
:17:25. > :17:30.make your mind up. But we did not expect anything like this when we
:17:31. > :17:43.set out. It is something you wanted to do and you did it.
:17:44. > :17:49.Also honoured was Mike Golding. He is the only sailor in modern times
:17:50. > :17:57.to have rounded the hope on six occasions under seal.
:17:58. > :18:07.This is the crowning point of our fabulous 12 months.
:18:08. > :18:15.There is another challenge. At the moment we cannot give any specific
:18:16. > :18:28.details. This year we will be doing something bigger.
:18:29. > :18:33.The adventure has only just begun. We will wait and see what that next
:18:34. > :18:36.challenge will be. Dorset darts player Scott Mitchell
:18:37. > :18:39.is out of the BDO World Championships at Frimley Green in
:18:40. > :18:43.Surrey. Mitchell, seeded 15th was up against number two seed James
:18:44. > :18:47.Wilson. The Bransgore based player fought back from two sets down to
:18:48. > :18:59.level the match before Wilson went on to win 4`2.
:19:00. > :19:01.We are starting to see some movements around our clubs.
:19:02. > :19:05.AFC Bournemouth defender Elliott Ward has signed a two year extension
:19:06. > :19:09.to his contract. Ward signed from Premier League Norwich in the summer
:19:10. > :19:11.and has impressed in the opening months of his Cherries career.
:19:12. > :19:15.Meanwhile former Reading defender Nicky Shorey has joined Portsmouth
:19:16. > :19:18.on a short term deal to the end of the season. He's joined by free
:19:19. > :19:22.agent striker Jake Jervis while front man Ryan Taylor is also set to
:19:23. > :19:23.sign after his release from Bristol City.
:19:24. > :19:27.Meanwhile Portsmouth have thrown their weight behind a campaign to
:19:28. > :19:30.trial safe standing in stadia. The Football League asked their member
:19:31. > :19:34.clubs for their opinions on bringing standing areas back into grounds.
:19:35. > :19:37.Pompey have become one of the first clubs to publicly back the scheme.
:19:38. > :19:40.Standing is still permitted in Leagues One and Two, but clubs with
:19:41. > :19:44.all seater stadiums cannot revert back to standing. All Championship
:19:45. > :19:52.clubs currently must have seats only.
:19:53. > :19:58.That is going to be quite a debate. It stirs up a lot of emotions. It is
:19:59. > :20:02.something that the football league have been looking at for a while. A
:20:03. > :20:08.lot of clubs feel it is a sensible move.
:20:09. > :20:11.Let us talk about the weather now. Long before television weather
:20:12. > :20:15.forecasters existed, people used to let Mother Nature tell them what the
:20:16. > :20:26.weather was doing. The clouds, The Sun, the moon, plants and animals
:20:27. > :20:30.all showed signs of change. Alexis Green has been looking at some of
:20:31. > :20:43.those old wives' tales to see if any of them are true.
:20:44. > :20:46.We all like to know if we will need our umbrellas but I see the weather
:20:47. > :21:00.forecast becomes a much more serious matter. What if it was not there?
:21:01. > :21:11.This sailor teaches techniques for reading the signs that nature
:21:12. > :21:18.provide. I still teach how to navigate with the stars. It brings
:21:19. > :21:29.you back to the environment you are in. One of the simplest things would
:21:30. > :21:41.be the North Star. If you know how high it is in the sky you can work
:21:42. > :21:55.out your latitude. If I look at the horizon, that is roughly 20 degrees.
:21:56. > :22:00.By measuring the angle I would know my latitude. The weather does not
:22:01. > :22:18.always do what you think it is going to do. That is correct. The worst
:22:19. > :22:30.storm was in high pressure. The waves are quite strong at the
:22:31. > :22:34.moment. These are wind driven waves. These methods are based on science,
:22:35. > :22:40.but folklore provide some forecasting methods which while
:22:41. > :22:45.well`known are less reliable. Cows are said to lie down if there is
:22:46. > :22:52.rain on the way. But most of them are outlining the same way close to
:22:53. > :22:59.a hedge it will rain. The upturned clients are swept up
:23:00. > :23:06.because of the wind up there. They are called messengers. It will rain
:23:07. > :23:09.in three days or 24 hours. According to folklore there are more
:23:10. > :23:15.clues all around. There are lots of areas on the tree
:23:16. > :23:24.it means we will have a long hard winter.
:23:25. > :23:30.How about red skies? When it comes to lambing time the
:23:31. > :23:40.weather is essential. I asked this retired shepherd if there is truth
:23:41. > :23:50.in the old sayings. It is a clean sheet. It is only an indication. It
:23:51. > :23:57.is only a warning. It is interesting.
:23:58. > :24:04.We have got pine and seaweed. I'm corns amidst the Open left the
:24:05. > :24:15.weather is dry. This is dry. Rain is on the way.
