Hello. Now, | :00:09. | :00:08. | |
Hello. Good evening. | :00:09. | :00:12. | |
A teenager has been taken to hospital after falling 15 feet from | :00:13. | :00:14. | |
a fairground ride on Worthing seafront. The girl fell from the | :00:15. | :00:18. | |
Rocker ride, which was in motion at the time, shortly before 9:30 last | :00:19. | :00:23. | |
night. Police and paramedics were called to the scene and the girl was | :00:24. | :00:26. | |
taken to the Royal Sussex County Hospital in Brighton. Sean Killick | :00:27. | :00:35. | |
reports. An official safety inspection is | :00:36. | :00:43. | |
being carried out on the Work right. It is run by an experienced | :00:44. | :00:48. | |
contractor. Sussex Police say at 9:30pm a teenage girl fell 15 feet | :00:49. | :00:52. | |
from the ride, it was in motion at the time. The police were here and | :00:53. | :00:58. | |
the ambulance was here quickly and I believe she was taken to hospital. I | :00:59. | :01:03. | |
believe she has hurt her wrist and ankle. The ride is closed for the | :01:04. | :01:10. | |
time being. Obviously, the ride operators are cooperating with the | :01:11. | :01:14. | |
council and giving full cooperation. Is very sign of any fault with the | :01:15. | :01:19. | |
ride? There is no sign at this stage. All the rights in the fair | :01:20. | :01:23. | |
were checked by officers before they were set up and they do have up to | :01:24. | :01:29. | |
date safety certificates. The other rides began operating has planned, | :01:30. | :01:37. | |
but the Rock remains closed. The council later said that the Health | :01:38. | :01:41. | |
and Safety Executive said there was nothing mechanically wrong with the | :01:42. | :01:44. | |
ride and it will reopen tomorrow. Meanwhile, the injured girl has been | :01:45. | :01:48. | |
released from hospital. Health campaigners in Hampshire say | :01:49. | :01:51. | |
the county is a hotspot for asbestos`related disease. Today in | :01:52. | :01:55. | |
Portsmouth a group abseiled down the Spinnaker Tower to raise awareness | :01:56. | :01:59. | |
of incurable asbestos`linked cancer. They say it is especially prevalent | :02:00. | :02:02. | |
in the area because of historical heavy industry. Rob Powell has more. | :02:03. | :02:13. | |
The diseases caused by the inhalation of asbestos linger. It is | :02:14. | :02:20. | |
a lung cancer caused purely from asbestos exposure. It lies in the | :02:21. | :02:27. | |
core of the lung and it can lay there for many years, before it | :02:28. | :02:30. | |
actually sort of rears its ugly head. Campaigners say industries | :02:31. | :02:35. | |
like dock working make Portsmouth something of a hotspot. The NHS say | :02:36. | :02:43. | |
there are 40 new cases each in Portsmouth. Dock workers who loaded | :02:44. | :02:46. | |
asbestos sacks, they split open, and they would be showered, like a | :02:47. | :02:53. | |
snowstorm, really. They would come home with that on their overalls. | :02:54. | :02:57. | |
Today, Portsmouth Spinnaker Tower was the challenge as doctors, | :02:58. | :02:59. | |
campaigners and lawyers all abseiled down trying to raise money and | :03:00. | :03:02. | |
awareness for this yet incurable disease. | :03:03. | :03:10. | |
Christian groups on Oxford's Cowley Road have come together this morning | :03:11. | :03:15. | |
in a show of faith despite being banned from putting on a religious | :03:16. | :03:18. | |
play. The churches were told they couldn't perform a Passion play, | :03:19. | :03:21. | |
which is a re`enactment of the last few days of Jesus' life, after a mix | :03:22. | :03:28. | |
up at Oxford City Council. Despite the setback, around 40 people still | :03:29. | :03:35. | |
took part in a special walk. A little bit disappointed. But at | :03:36. | :03:39. | |
least we can do the walk. It would have been an extraordinary public | :03:40. | :03:42. | |
witness to the central story of our faith. But it was a good crowd for | :03:43. | :03:46. | |
the walk. We gathered to do another prayer walk which we hope people get | :03:47. | :03:54. | |
to join in with. `` we hope people will be able to join in with. | :03:55. | :03:58. | |
Onto sport, and it's been a crucial day in the fight for playoff places | :03:59. | :04:01. | |
for our sides. In the Championship, Reading slipped up at Wigan, beaten | :04:02. | :04:04. | |
3`0 which means they drop out of the playoff places. They're replaced by | :04:05. | :04:07. | |
Brighton, who got a late equaliser at Huddersfield. And Bournemouth | :04:08. | :04:10. | |
mist the chance to catch up ground on them both, they were beaten 4`2 | :04:11. | :04:13. | |
at home by Sheffield Wednesday, with two goals for the visitors in the | :04:14. | :04:16. | |
last few minutes. In League One, Swindon scored a last`minute winner | :04:17. | :04:19. | |
at Coventry, but MK Dons went down 1`0 to Port Vale. And in League Two, | :04:20. | :04:23. | |
Oxford United dropped out of the playoff positions, beaten by York | :04:24. | :04:26. | |
City, who replace them in the playoff spot. | :04:27. | :04:28. | |
In speedway, it's a busy day for the Poole Pirates and the Swindon Robins | :04:29. | :04:32. | |
as they face each other twice in the Elite League. The first showdown was | :04:33. | :04:35. | |
at Poole earlier today, where the Pirates won by 56 to 34. They take | :04:36. | :04:39. | |
that lead into tonight's tie in Swindon, which will decide the Elite | :04:40. | :04:44. | |
Shield winners. Tapes up at 8pm. Glorious weather today. This was | :04:45. | :04:48. | |
Freshwater Bay on the Isle of Wight, thanks to Martin Perry for that. And | :04:49. | :04:53. | |
many of you sent us bluebells. This was Pamphill in Dorset, taken by | :04:54. | :04:57. | |
Mike Ludwig. So what does the rest of the holiday weekend hold? Ian | :04:58. | :04:58. | |
Fergusson has the details. Hello. Another fine evening to come, | :04:59. | :05:04. | |
but that will lead us into clear skies. A chilly night. Many places | :05:05. | :05:10. | |
will see frost. Temperatures as low as freezing in one or two spots. Two | :05:11. | :05:15. | |
or three Celsius will be widespread. A chilly start tomorrow. It will be | :05:16. | :05:19. | |
a day of sunny spells, variable cloud. The cloud could bring one or | :05:20. | :05:24. | |
two showers through the afternoon. Particuarly down to parts of Sussex, | :05:25. | :05:27. | |
there may be one or two getting further westwards, but many of you, | :05:28. | :05:33. | |
I am sure, will enjoy a dry day. Moderately breezy, temperatures of | :05:34. | :05:39. | |
12 to 14 Celsius. Beyond that, some clouds may bring some rain, it will | :05:40. | :05:45. | |
turn heavy in places. You will bring some rain. | :05:46. | :05:54. | |
I hope you can join us at quarter past ten. | :05:55. | :06:09. | |
Today we have seen temperatures rising if Scotland but again | :06:10. | :06:14. | |
tonight, with the clear skies and light wind temperatures will fall | :06:15. | :06:18. | |
sharply, and for many of us, we are looking at a touch of frost. The | :06:19. | :06:22. | |
satellite picture tells a story nicely. This belt of cloud is | :06:23. | :06:25. | |
sitting in the far north-west of Scotland, we have had this cloud | :06:26. | :06:30. | |
bubbling up across eastern areas and with the northerly wind it has felt | :06:31. | :06:33. | |
cold in East Anglia. That cloud is going to melt away, we will get an | :06:34. | :06:36. | |
easterly breeze picking the cloud back in again later in the night in | :06:37. | :06:39. | |
eastern areas and we still have this cloud and rain in the far north-west | :06:40. | :06:44. | |
of Scotland, but for most we will have clear sky, light | :06:45. | :06:45. |
