:00:20. > :00:22.in Southmoor yesterday evening. He died later in hospital. An

:00:31. > :00:34.rescued after getting stuck in mud in the River Stour as she went to
:00:35. > :00:37.rescue her pet. The 46`year`old was stranded up to her waist at
:00:38. > :00:41.Cowgrove. Firefighters used a rope to reach her before pulling her out.
:00:42. > :00:43.Rescuers say river embankments may appear to be safe, but conditions
:00:44. > :00:50.are still muddy and dangerous following the winter storms and
:00:51. > :00:54.flooding. Once she had got into the water, it
:00:55. > :00:56.was almost impossible for her to actually rescue herself back out
:00:57. > :00:59.because of the steepness of the banks. She would have had to travel
:01:00. > :01:02.further downstream to find somewhere suitable to actually get out, which
:01:03. > :01:08.could have put her in further danger, really.
:01:09. > :01:11.A policeman had to dive into the water at Cowes ferry terminal after
:01:12. > :01:16.a woman jumped from the pontoon when she was denied entry to the Red Jet.

:01:20. > :01:22.sweep her away, but she stopped breathing. She was treated by
:01:23. > :01:29.rescuers from Cowes RNLI and taken to hospital. Red Funnel has started
:01:30. > :01:32.an investigation. Police in West Sussex are warning

:01:36. > :01:38.after a day out. 43`year`old Jason Merriman was due to return to The
:01:39. > :01:43.Oaklands Centre in Chichester on Friday. Police say his behaviour may
:01:44. > :01:45.be "erratic and irrational". He was wearing green camouflage trousers
:01:46. > :01:51.and a dark blue long`sleeved sweatshirt.
:01:52. > :01:54.Basingstoke MP Maria Miller should have resigned and apologised more
:01:55. > :01:58.than a week ago, according to a Conservative colleague. The former
:01:59. > :02:01.Culture Secretary stepped down from her cabinet position last Wednesday
:02:02. > :02:06.after the row over her expenses claims. Romsey and Southampton North
:02:07. > :02:16.MP Caroline Nokes told Sunday Politics in the South that she
:02:17. > :02:20.should have apologised sooner. I think it's absolutely imperative
:02:21. > :02:25.that we get over this, that people make heartfelt, sincere apologies,
:02:26. > :02:29.and do their best to try and restore confidence in their politicians. She
:02:30. > :02:33.should have made a heartfelt, sincere apology earlier? Yes, I
:02:34. > :02:36.think she should have done. Every year it helps around 200
:02:37. > :02:39.injured birds of prey. Now the Hawk Conservancy Trust near Andover hopes
:02:40. > :02:42.to save more. It's just opened a new rehabilitation wing at its National
:02:43. > :02:44.Bird of Prey Hospital. The opening was overseen by the trust's
:02:45. > :02:50.president, BBC Springwatch presenter Chris Packham. James Ingham was
:02:51. > :02:54.there. This is it, mate. You've got to make
:02:55. > :03:00.it. Ready? Nursed back to health ` this buzzard hit by a car is free
:03:01. > :03:02.again. Look at that. On this beautiful spring morning. It's just
:03:03. > :03:06.up there, doing its thing, stretching its wing, and relishing
:03:07. > :03:09.the fact it's up there in free space and free air, and hopefully by this
:03:10. > :03:12.time next year, that male will have found a female and started breeding,
:03:13. > :03:16.and the hospital will have done its job. Brilliant. Absolutely
:03:17. > :03:21.brilliant. It was quite a moment releasing that bird back.
:03:22. > :03:25.Now that hospital can do even more to help. This tawny owl chick is one
:03:26. > :03:31.of around 200 sick, injured or orphaned birds cared for each year
:03:32. > :03:34.by the Hawk Conservancy Trust. This kestrel, another that will be helped
:03:35. > :03:38.in a new wing where birds will gradually be prepared for release.
:03:39. > :03:42.The bird will initially come in here for the first stage of rehab until
:03:43. > :03:45.it's ready to be released. It will then go outside and can be released
:03:46. > :03:49.from the aviary outside. The aviary is about 100 feet long. It means we
:03:50. > :03:53.can take in more birds, but also means they can gain fitness a lot
:03:54. > :03:55.quicker, so we can get them back out into the wild at a quicker
:03:56. > :03:57.turnaround. What this place is all about is
:03:58. > :04:02.promoting a greater understanding, awareness and tolerance of our
:04:03. > :04:05.raptors, our birds of prey and owls. Chris Packham was one of the
:04:06. > :04:08.founders of this trust, so relished opening this latest facility at the
:04:09. > :04:17.nationally renowned bird of prey hospital.
:04:18. > :04:21.Onto cricket, and on day one of the latest County Championship matches,

:04:31. > :04:34.play, including 117 runs from their captain Ed Joyce.
:04:35. > :04:39.Meanwhile, Hampshire won the toss and decided to field in their match
:04:40. > :04:42.against Gloucestershire. It's been a high`scoring first innings for the
:04:43. > :04:53.home team. They've reached 292 for five.
:04:54. > :04:56.Great cricketing whether to. Is it going to last, though? Let's find

:05:00. > :05:02.weather across the weekend, we are set to continue with settled
:05:03. > :05:05.conditions over the next few days thanks to an area of high pressure.
:05:06. > :05:09.It's staying nearby for the start of the week. And a fine end to the day
:05:10. > :05:13.today. Through the night, a little bit of cloud at times, but with some
:05:14. > :05:16.clearer skies and some light winds as well. It will locally be quite a
:05:17. > :05:19.chilly night, parts of the countryside seeing temperatures as
:05:20. > :05:22.low as four or five degrees. A chance locally of a touch of grass
:05:23. > :05:26.frost by tomorrow morning. It is a bit of a cool start for Monday, but
:05:27. > :05:29.a fine and bright start for tomorrow as well. We will see some more
:05:30. > :05:32.sunshine throughout the day. Another dry day tomorrow as well, and with
:05:33. > :05:36.fairly light winds, it will be quite warm in that sun once again. Highs
