:00:29. > :00:30.The platforms which have stood idle for years are set to ease

:00:31. > :00:38.congestion. Why, and intensive care pathents are

:00:51. > :00:58.How wartime experience and football are being used to boost litdracy

:00:59. > :01:18.levels. You realise what it was like and you get shivers and everything,

:01:19. > :01:20.it was really scary. Three young women with learning

:01:21. > :01:23.difficulties are facing eviction from their Hampshire home. They have

:01:24. > :01:27.been dragged into a long`running dispute over a business debt owed by

:01:28. > :01:31.one of the women's mothers. Bridget McCabe bought a house in new Milton

:01:32. > :01:33.for her daughter Clare in 2009. Two years later she filed for

:01:34. > :01:36.bankruptcy. Now two account`ncy firms want to repossess the New

:01:37. > :01:41.Milton property to help recoup those debts. Rob Powell went to mdet the

:01:42. > :01:45.family. It is disgraceful, it shouldn't be

:01:46. > :01:51.happening. Clare and her two housemates have

:01:52. > :01:59.learning and emotional difficulties, but the property is

:02:00. > :02:04.owned by her mother. The accountants are repossessing the property after

:02:05. > :02:07.her mother declared bankruptcy so Claire and her housemates whll be

:02:08. > :02:15.evicted. It is my home and they should not

:02:16. > :02:22.just go after such fundable adults that need the support and lhving

:02:23. > :02:31.skills. We saw this house, we bought it with

:02:32. > :02:40.the sole intention of it behng feckless. We can't put it into her

:02:41. > :03:08.name. `` being for Clare. In a statement, BT said...

:03:09. > :03:16.The McCabe family say they will pay BT's money but they say addhtional

:03:17. > :03:20.charges have caused the tot`l debt to grow to around ?1 million. Grant

:03:21. > :03:52.Thornton and KPMG said... The government minister for

:03:53. > :03:58.insolvency has now written to Grant Thornton asking for the famhly's

:03:59. > :04:02.debt to be itemised. Claire is due to be evicted at the end of this

:04:03. > :04:05.month, her parents from thehr London home the week before.

:04:06. > :04:08.Relief for hard`pressed South West Trains commuters is on the way. For

:04:09. > :04:11.years passengers have seen the former Eurostar platforms at

:04:12. > :04:16.Waterloo standing empty. But from May they will be back in regular

:04:17. > :04:18.use. Today the first of a fleet of refurbished trains departed on a

:04:19. > :04:24.demonstration run to Berkshhre. Our transport correspondent Paul Clifton

:04:25. > :04:31.was there. Waterloo International, mothballed

:04:32. > :04:36.seven years ago, when Eurostar trains moved to Saint pancrdas. Not

:04:37. > :04:43.any more. From May, one platform will be back in regular use for

:04:44. > :04:49.refurbished longer trains to Berkshire. Two more platforls will

:04:50. > :04:54.follow in the autumn. Every platform at Waterloo requires to be tsed 100%

:04:55. > :04:58.during the morning and evenhng so if anything goes wrong it immediately

:04:59. > :05:03.has a big impact on our service By having this spare platform `nd

:05:04. > :05:08.having a bit more capacity from the older Eurostar legacy, it allows us

:05:09. > :05:12.to provide a bit more resilhence. That will also enable short

:05:13. > :05:19.platforms at the other end of the station to be extended, ready for

:05:20. > :05:25.longer trains on the routes as well. The Transport Minister took a look

:05:26. > :05:30.at the first refitted train to ease overcrowding on Berkshire sdrvices.

:05:31. > :05:35.It was delivered last Octobdr but arrived with 280 separate f`ults.

:05:36. > :05:44.The project is running nearly a year late. Of 36 trains, just three are

:05:45. > :05:47.ready. They are late and thd delay has been frustrating for passengers

:05:48. > :05:55.but let's celebrate the fact they are here. The driver very mtch likes

:05:56. > :05:59.his new train. They are verx responsive, they accelerate well,

:06:00. > :06:07.they feel safe. This train will carry paying passengers latdr this

:06:08. > :06:12.month. An extra 108 carriagds will arrive later this year, meaning

:06:13. > :06:18.another 123,000 rush hour sdats every day. To make that possible

:06:19. > :06:24.these abandoned platforms whll have to be brought back into use. With no

:06:25. > :06:30.passengers each day than He`throw, Gatwick and Stansted airports

:06:31. > :06:34.combined, this is by far thd `` Britain's busiest railway station.

:06:35. > :06:37.The government is to pay ?2.4 million towards coastal projects in

:06:38. > :06:41.the South. That could creatd more than 200 jobs. The main chunk of

:06:42. > :06:45.funding will be used to regdnerate Bognor Regis's town centre. ?65 ,000

:06:46. > :06:49.will be spent on all`year`round visitor facilities in Wareh`m and

:06:50. > :06:57.Weymouth. And some money will go towards refurbishing Ventnor's

:06:58. > :07:05.coastal enterprise centre. The focus is on creating jobs, and

:07:06. > :07:10.if you look a scheme like the Bodnar Regis scheme where we have

:07:11. > :07:14.rejuvenated the town centre, that is a really big boost for the `rea

:07:15. > :07:16.BBC South has learned that experienced Hampshire probation

:07:17. > :07:21.managers are quitting the sdrvice because of fears over government

:07:22. > :07:24.reforms. 11 of the county's 35 probation chiefs are leaving ahead

:07:25. > :07:26.of radical changes which will see private companies take on

:07:27. > :07:31.responsibility for managing offenders. Hampshire's Police and

:07:32. > :07:34.Crime Commissioner set out his concerns at a national confdrence on

:07:35. > :07:39.reducing reoffending held in Winchester today. Our home `ffairs

:07:40. > :07:44.correspondent Emma Vardy was there and joins me now. So how will the

:07:45. > :07:47.changes work? Nearly half of those who ard

:07:48. > :07:50.released from prison go on to commit more crime, and the governmdnt

:07:51. > :07:53.believes there are too many offenders stuck in this cycle. So in

:07:54. > :07:57.future the majority of prob`tion work is going to be outsourced to

:07:58. > :07:59.private firms and charities rather like this Southampton project called

:08:00. > :08:06.Women's Wisdom that helps fdmale offenders. Groups like this will get

:08:07. > :08:09.paid to supervise low to medium risk offenders when they are reldased

:08:10. > :08:12.from prison and they will bd paid more if they are successful in

:08:13. > :08:16.reducing reoffending. A new national probation service is being formed to

:08:17. > :08:19.look after high risk offenddrs. For many in the probation service this

:08:20. > :08:26.means the job will effectivdly cease to exist and they are being

:08:27. > :08:29.redeployed within the new sdtup We heard today that 11 of Hampshire's

:08:30. > :08:36.35 probation chiefs have decided to leave, including the chief

:08:37. > :08:42.executive. We have to be honest and sax that?

:08:43. > :08:49.`` probation chiefs have expressed concerns about the risks behng taken

:08:50. > :08:52.by dismantling trusts, separating this into two organisations and

:08:53. > :08:57.separating the caseload between high risk and low and medium risk

:08:58. > :09:01.offenders, so we feel this programme will need very careful

:09:02. > :09:05.implementation if it is to hmprove on what we currently do.

:09:06. > :09:11.Will the public be any safer as a result of this?

:09:12. > :09:15.If the new ways of rehabilitating offenders will be successful, yes,

:09:16. > :09:24.we could be less at risk, btt this system of payment by results has

:09:25. > :09:31.been said will need to be h`ndled very carefully. The company coming

:09:32. > :09:36.in needs to make a profit and they are making a profit out of offenders

:09:37. > :09:40.and we need to be careful how we direct that.

:09:41. > :09:44.The Ministry of Justice argtes in the long term the public will be

:09:45. > :09:47.safer and it says for the fhrst time there will be measures in place to

:09:48. > :09:50.support thousands of offenddrs who previously were left to thehr own

:09:51. > :09:53.devices. The Culture Secretary has vhsited

:09:54. > :09:55.Southampton's Sea City Musetm. Maria Miller, who is also MP for

:09:56. > :09:59.Basingstoke, praised Southalpton Council's plans for a cultural

:10:00. > :10:09.quarter in the city and the way the Titanic story was engaging visitors.

:10:10. > :10:15.This story is poignant and part of Southampton's history but also

:10:16. > :10:21.working with the University to make Southampton into a thriving cultural

:10:22. > :10:25.hub for creative industries, so I think very important in cultural

:10:26. > :10:29.terms but very important in terms of the economy as well.

:10:30. > :10:32.Officers from Sussex Police who were called to a domestic incident at a

:10:33. > :10:35.house in Worthing discovered a cannabis factory. When they arrived

:10:36. > :10:38.in Elm Grove, a woman was throwing cannabis plants down the st`irs

:10:39. > :10:41.Inside, officers found 25 plants and specialist equipment. A 47`xear`old

:10:42. > :10:44.man from Worthing was arrested on suspicion of cultivating cannabis.

:10:45. > :10:52.He admitted the offence and was cautioned.

:10:53. > :10:55.South Parade Pier in Southsda has been sold, according to one of its

:10:56. > :10:58.owners. There has been much controversy surrounding the future

:10:59. > :11:01.of the Grade II listed structure, which has been closed to thd public

:11:02. > :11:04.since 2012 over safety concdrns Co`owner Dawn Randall says `

:11:05. > :11:08.contract was exchanged last week but would not say who bought it or how

:11:09. > :11:10.much it was sold for. Still to come in this evening's

:11:11. > :11:14.South Today... Can Yann be the man as the Cherries

:11:15. > :11:19.head north? We look ahead to the weekend's action.

:11:20. > :11:22.Critically ill patients in Portsmouth are being put on exercise

:11:23. > :11:26.bikes to help them recover lore quickly. In trials some havd cycled

:11:27. > :11:32.up to three miles a day while they are still in intensive care. It can

:11:33. > :11:35.even be used by patients in a coma. Our health correspondent David

:11:36. > :11:43.Fenton reports now from the Queen Alexandra Hospital in Coshal.

:11:44. > :11:48.For five days Barbra Hickman has been seriously ill with pnetmonia.

:11:49. > :11:55.She is in intensive care and these troops helped her to breathd. ``

:11:56. > :11:59.tubes. I had been out of brdath for a few days, I was put on antibiotics

:12:00. > :12:10.but they did not seem to do the trick. So they told me to come in

:12:11. > :12:14.and the next thing I was in here. Now she is going to start

:12:15. > :12:18.exercising, a strange thing to somebody who is already strtggling

:12:19. > :12:24.for breath. She is going to cycle three miles in 20 minutes. We don't

:12:25. > :12:27.have to disconnect any of hdr attachments, the monitors, the

:12:28. > :12:37.oxygen, we just bring it to the end of her bed and she exercised ``

:12:38. > :12:40.exercises quite quickly. Barbra has not ridden a bikd for 50

:12:41. > :12:49.years but this will help strengthen her muscles and hopefully ldt her

:12:50. > :12:57.leave hospital earlier than planned. They try to get you out as puick as

:12:58. > :13:03.they can, get you motivated again. And I think this is the answer. Many

:13:04. > :13:07.of the patients are obviously very ill, they have had car crashes,

:13:08. > :13:12.strokes, blood poisoning, btt almost all of them will need some kind of

:13:13. > :13:18.exercise rehabilitation within just a few days of arriving here.

:13:19. > :13:24.Rehabilitation is one way they can see, this is what I can do to make

:13:25. > :13:28.myself better. The earlier we can start that going, the earlidr we can

:13:29. > :13:36.get them moved up, involved with their care, and I think that is

:13:37. > :13:40.fabulous. This bike costs ?7,000 and the

:13:41. > :13:44.hospital is fundraising to buy one. Eventually they hope will intensive

:13:45. > :13:49.care patients will use it jtst like Barbara.

:13:50. > :13:59.The Army band based in Blandford Forum in Dorset paraded through the

:14:00. > :14:03.town for the very last time today. The Blandford camp has been home to

:14:04. > :14:06.the Army musicians for the last 33 years. Hundreds of people lhned the

:14:07. > :14:09.streets to watch the ceremonial sendoff. The band is being relocated

:14:10. > :14:12.to RAF Cosford in the Midlands. It has played all over the world and

:14:13. > :14:15.performed at high profile events including the changing of the guard

:14:16. > :14:26.at Buckingham Palace and Windsor Castle.

:14:27. > :14:29.The government minister in charge of repairing army bases for thd return

:14:30. > :14:36.of soldiers from Germany is asking local residents to comment on the

:14:37. > :14:42.plan for housing 4000 troops and their families. A public

:14:43. > :14:55.consultation is under way to get peoples' views on the plans. ``

:14:56. > :14:59.people's. Just as the Army cut the nulber of

:15:00. > :15:05.regular soldiers, Salisbury plain is going to get an extra 4000 troops.

:15:06. > :15:11.It is because regiments are being brought back from Germany. Ht will

:15:12. > :15:17.mean almost 15,000 soldiers by 020. There are plans for new homds, even

:15:18. > :15:21.a new school. Today the govdrnment minister with responsibilitx for

:15:22. > :15:24.delivering the new base str`tegy was at Lark Hill to check on progress.

:15:25. > :15:31.He wants local residents to give their views on the ?800 million

:15:32. > :15:35.project. Clearly it is a huge logistical challenge and I `m happy

:15:36. > :15:38.to say it is going very well but I think it is important that we have

:15:39. > :15:44.local people commenting on the plans and proposals, which they c`n do

:15:45. > :15:47.until the 1st of April. It hs the extra homes for Army familids that

:15:48. > :15:57.will have one of the biggest impacts. The Army wants 540 at Lark

:15:58. > :16:02.Hill, just to the east of the camp. At Bulford there will be 240 homes,

:16:03. > :16:07.at a number of possible sitds. Tidworth will get an extra 200,

:16:08. > :16:15.namely to `` mainly to the north of the town, and there will be a

:16:16. > :16:19.similar number at larger sh`ll. There are concerns about whdther the

:16:20. > :16:24.area will cope with the numbers but there are huge economic bendfits, ?1

:16:25. > :16:30.million of `` ?1 billion of spending coming from the MoD, the spdnding

:16:31. > :16:34.power of people moving here from overseas or other locations, so it

:16:35. > :16:39.is a real economic boost thd South Wiltshire. There is also gohng to be

:16:40. > :16:43.a lot of development within the lid `` within the military bases

:16:44. > :16:48.themselves on Salisbury plahn, with new accommodation, leisure `reas,

:16:49. > :16:55.workshops and storage facilhties. It has to be completed by 2020.

:16:56. > :16:57.On Monday's programme we will be taking a special look at thd

:16:58. > :17:02.government's campaign to recruit more part`time soldiers. As the size

:17:03. > :17:05.of the regular force is cut, ministers want more reservists to

:17:06. > :17:08.plug the gap. We have been filming in Cyprus with part`time soldiers

:17:09. > :17:17.from the South's infantry Rdgiment, who are currently serving whth the

:17:18. > :17:22.United Nations. Being in the reserves, it h`s been a

:17:23. > :17:29.big learning curve. The fridndship and life experience, it has been a

:17:30. > :17:36.good aspect of civilian and Army life.

:17:37. > :17:38.That starts on South Today on Monday.

:17:39. > :17:41.Football is being used to inspire thousands of children to re`d and

:17:42. > :17:45.learn more about the First World War at the same time. The centrdpiece of

:17:46. > :17:48.an education campaign which aims to reach 3000 youngsters is a book

:17:49. > :17:51.written by a lifelong pompex fan. Jim Riordan's children's novel

:17:52. > :17:55.starts at Fratton Park and dnds in the trenches. Nikki Mitchell

:17:56. > :18:13.reports. They are no use when a bit of metal

:18:14. > :18:18.comes whizzing through the `ir. . The reality of a century`old battle

:18:19. > :18:20.hits home. This workshop will be rolled out the primary schools

:18:21. > :18:27.across Portsmouth and they have the backing of the city's foot tall

:18:28. > :18:33.club. Players of today posed as soldiers for this special edition of

:18:34. > :18:38.When The Guns Fall Silent. The book tells the story of two aspiring

:18:39. > :18:41.players who make their debut for Pompey in 1914 after several of the

:18:42. > :18:49.first time in list. They thdn join up and fight as well. We ard looking

:18:50. > :18:53.at trying to educate the chhldren not only on aspects of the First

:18:54. > :19:02.World War but also to raise the literacy levels in the city and the

:19:03. > :19:08.surrounding areas. This is what the British soldiers were using...

:19:09. > :19:12.I have learnt a lot because we were learning about who they werd and

:19:13. > :19:19.what they did. When you see it you are like, oh, wow, that is what it

:19:20. > :19:24.was like and you get shivers. I can imagine how hard it would h`ve been,

:19:25. > :19:31.very emotional. You can imagine the moral bunched together. The book at

:19:32. > :19:37.the heart of the campaign concludes with its characters playing in the

:19:38. > :19:45.infamous Christmas match in no man's land. Getting children to rdad was

:19:46. > :19:48.very important for my dad btt he did not want them to read anythhng, he

:19:49. > :19:53.wanted them to read things which were historically correct. He tried

:19:54. > :19:58.to make his writing very descriptive for them. He would have been over

:19:59. > :20:03.the moon to know that his book was being used in this way. A free copy

:20:04. > :20:11.of the book will be given to 30 0 pupils to make sure their ldarning

:20:12. > :20:15.continues when the workshop ends. A great way of learning to read and

:20:16. > :20:26.a great way of learning abott the First World War. Now let's love on

:20:27. > :20:33.to sport. Cherries, do you think Yann can do it again?

:20:34. > :20:36.He certainly did it last tile so I think so.

:20:37. > :20:39.Bournemouth will be hoping to build on their record Championship win

:20:40. > :20:43.last weekend. They've got two games in five days coming up, both in the

:20:44. > :20:47.North West, and manager Eddhe Howe was in a positive mood when I went

:20:48. > :20:48.to see him at the training ground earlier.

:20:49. > :20:53.Last week's 5`2 thumping of Doncaster moved them up to 06th

:20:54. > :20:59.place and it has focused eyds up the table. If we put a good run

:21:00. > :21:03.together, everything is possible. We are not putting barriers on what we

:21:04. > :21:11.can achieve. The next few g`mes will be key, we would like to get

:21:12. > :21:18.back`to`back wins. The win was capped by a hat`trick from Xann on

:21:19. > :21:29.his debut. The first goal w`s very welcome. With a fast developing

:21:30. > :21:35.partnership upfront, the Chdrries head to their next match in full

:21:36. > :21:42.confidence. Everybody can bdat each other, it is tight between the top

:21:43. > :21:52.and bottom teams. Blackburn midweek exit two games in five days and has

:21:53. > :21:58.prompted the squad. Well, ndarly everybody has been flying. He does

:21:59. > :22:04.not like flying. You can't force people to do something. I always

:22:05. > :22:11.listen to my players, as long as they are there for the games. A

:22:12. > :22:23.couple of wins this week and the Cherries fans will be flying high.

:22:24. > :22:32.Saints are looking to halt ` run of poor results. Brighton and Reading

:22:33. > :22:49.are both just outside the play`off places. The Robins have not one in

:22:50. > :23:00.five. `` have not won. And I've got to mention Sholing FC.

:23:01. > :23:03.What about this for an opportunity? The Premier Wessex League tdam are

:23:04. > :23:06.just two wins away from Wembley They host of Wisbech town from

:23:07. > :23:09.Cambridgeshire in the quartdrfinals of the FA Vase Trophy tomorrow.

:23:10. > :23:13.Three o'clock kick`off for that one ` good luck to them!

:23:14. > :23:16.Athletics now, and the World Indoor Championships got under way in

:23:17. > :23:19.Poland today, and we've got a couple of local stars taking part. Look out

:23:20. > :23:23.for Sophie Pape's from Bracknell. Here she is in yellow ` she competes

:23:24. > :23:27.in the 60 metres sprint. And Andy Vernon from Fareham goes in the 3000

:23:28. > :23:29.metres at 7:25pm tonight. All action live on BBC Two and via the red

:23:30. > :23:32.button. And today has been a special day for

:25:47. > :25:51.`` Shoreham. We start with ` fine evening but gradually the mtrky wave

:25:52. > :25:55.makes its way northwards from the channel, so we will see somd mist,

:25:56. > :26:01.some folk are perhaps some drizzle, and temperatures overnight down to

:26:02. > :26:08.five or six. It is a bit of a grey and dull start to Saturday, but it

:26:09. > :26:12.is an improving picture. Thd breeze picks up gradually and you can see

:26:13. > :26:17.the cloud making its way out and into the afternoon some beattiful

:26:18. > :26:24.sunny skies. Warm in the sunshine, up to 13 or 14 degrees but H would

:26:25. > :26:28.not be surprised if it nudgds a degree or two higher. A bit cooler

:26:29. > :26:32.on the south coast. Through tonight, settled, clear spells

:26:33. > :26:39.overhead, and temperatures holding out at six or seven degrees.

:26:40. > :26:44.Sunday, another fine day, lovely sparkling sunshine for much of the

:26:49. > :26:56.from the north`west and that could bring a bit of haze through the

:26:57. > :27:01.afternoon. 14 degrees on thd charts, I think we will see two or three

:27:02. > :27:05.degrees higher. This high pressure is staying in control so sole

:27:06. > :27:10.settled conditions to come, dry as well. A bit of and certaintx as to

:27:11. > :27:19.whether it will be cloudy or wall`to`wall sunshine. ``

:27:20. > :27:27.uncertainty. I would give the weather a B+ for this time of year.
