:04:08. > :04:17.dropped 75 years ago. It's been undisturbed
:04:18. > :04:20.in the silt of the harbour all that time, but still -
:04:21. > :04:23.potentially - deadly. So, it was towed out to an area off
:04:24. > :04:26.the Isle of Wight this morning before Royal Navy divers went down,

:05:31. > :05:35.this and it may not be the last time but I think fortunately with this
:05:36. > :05:37.particular incident it was dealt with quickly and professionally

:05:59. > :06:05.disruption for many rail travellers. Train conductors who are members
:06:06. > :06:08.of the RMT union are staging another one-day strike in their long-running
:06:09. > :06:11.dispute with Southern Rail. It's over changes to their role,
:06:12. > :06:14.and the move to make drivers responsible for operating
:06:15. > :06:16.train doors instead. Sean Killick is at
:06:17. > :06:20.Chichester station. What effect is this having
:06:21. > :06:28.on passengers today? Well, on the face of it, it's looked
:06:29. > :06:31.fairly normal here today. The union says the strike is solid,
:06:32. > :06:33.around 500 guards have walked out, and there have been many
:06:34. > :06:37.delays and cancellations. But according to Southern
:06:38. > :06:39.around three quarters It's the 29th strike day in this
:06:40. > :06:47.dispute between Southern and its guards but more services
:06:48. > :06:50.were running than on other strike days, including once west
:06:51. > :06:54.of Chichester to and from Hampshire. Passengers said it was quite
:06:55. > :07:00.a good service today. I was expecting to get
:07:01. > :07:02.a taxi to Chichester so I was pleasantly surprised
:07:03. > :07:05.there were some trains running. It was really peaceful,
:07:06. > :07:23.hardly anyone on it. I don't know if that's
:07:24. > :07:25.because hardly anyone was travelling One of the best journeys
:07:26. > :07:29.in a long time with Southern. Meanwhile, Michael Angus who uses
:07:30. > :07:31.a wheelchair and his brother Brian raised concerns
:07:32. > :07:34.about the staffing changes. He videoed problems
:07:35. > :07:36.he experienced recently boarding A member of staff did appear,
:07:37. > :07:44.put the ramp down the wrong way up and she struggled with the doors
:07:45. > :07:47.which were closing on her and Michael had to say three
:07:48. > :07:51.times it wasn't right. He wasn't put in a disabled bay
:07:52. > :07:54.so there wasn't access to a toilet or an alarm and when he got
:07:55. > :07:57.to Clapham Junction they were He often finds a catalogue of errors
:07:58. > :08:04.when he tries to travel on the train and I'm sure that will happen more
:08:05. > :08:07.often when they're down Southern has apologised to Michael
:08:08. > :08:11.saying an inexperienced agency staff member was to blame and it's
:08:12. > :08:14.urgently re-briefed It added that what happened
:08:15. > :08:21.was nothing to do with the changes. It's assigning onboard supervisors
:08:22. > :08:25.to every train where previously there was a conductor
:08:26. > :08:28.and because they wouldn't have to operate doors,
:08:29. > :08:35.it will allow them to provide more So, Sean, where are we now
:08:36. > :08:47.with this dispute? Well, this latest strike
:08:48. > :08:49.ends at midnight. Talks between Southern
:08:50. > :08:54.and the guards broke down last week. An offer made to driver
:08:55. > :08:57.by the company has been rejected. And industry experts say
:08:58. > :08:59.a resolution to this dispute The Shadow Health Secretary has
:09:00. > :09:07.called for an inquiry during a visit to Hove into the controversial
:09:08. > :09:10.contract for non-emergency patient The multi-million pound deal
:09:11. > :09:15.was awarded to Coperforma, It struggled from the start
:09:16. > :09:19.with hundreds of patients missing appointments and,
:09:20. > :09:35.last November, agreed These are drivers for the NHS
:09:36. > :09:41.nonemergency patient transport service in Sussex. The shack --
:09:42. > :09:44.Shadow Secretary of State for Health is making political capital that
:09:45. > :09:48.Coperforma won't run the service on the 1st of April and is calling
:09:49. > :09:52.answers as to what went wrong. There are serious questions that need to
:09:53. > :09:57.be answers and I hope there will be an enquiry had -- into how the
:09:58. > :10:02.contract was awarded because it was not in the interest of the taxpayer
:10:03. > :10:06.or patients. Over the last year drivers have had issues with pay,
:10:07. > :10:12.pensions and working practices. It has made them uncertain about the
:10:13. > :10:18.new contracts with the new provider. We are going through training at the
:10:19. > :10:22.moment before we start with the new company. We are all apprehensive,
:10:23. > :10:28.especially after what happened to us. The NHS is therefore the public
:10:29. > :10:32.not for Private people to come in and take that away because we've
:10:33. > :10:37.experienced it first hand, obviously. Standards are not as
:10:38. > :10:41.good. That political debate over the NHS and the way its run was the
:10:42. > :10:47.subject of a feisty exchange at Prime Minister's Questions. Why is
:10:48. > :10:53.it that one in six of NAND units in England are set for closure or
:10:54. > :10:58.downgrading? -- accident and emergency units. We are giving it
:10:59. > :11:04.more doctors and we are giving it more funding. In Sussex, NHS bosses
:11:05. > :11:07.are planning for the new transport provider to start work next week and
:11:08. > :11:13.take over completely in April. Having recognised the problem and
:11:14. > :11:15.cancelled the contract after just a few months they will hope for a

:16:19. > :16:23.his club take on Nottingham Forest in 1979. 38 years on his back to
:16:24. > :16:27.Wembley again this weekend. The old Wembley Stadium was an iconic
:16:28. > :16:31.structure. I much preferred standing on the terraces and swaying with the
:16:32. > :16:37.crowd, jumping up and down when a good tackle when teen or a goal was
:16:38. > :16:42.scored. Something else that has survived is a banner that he made
:16:43. > :16:47.for that game. In those days, it was traditional to have a banner and it
:16:48. > :16:52.was great waving it at Wembley and walking with a draped over your
:16:53. > :16:57.shoulders. But we lost 3-2 and I felt totally deflated. The banner

:17:05. > :17:09.up. Too embarrassed. His lumberjacks may have had their act is blunted in
:17:10. > :17:15.79 but what about this time around? If we win on Sunday it will make the
:17:16. > :17:22.season because we've actually won something. Will the banner make a
:17:23. > :17:29.trip to Wembley again? If I lose it I've lost it forever. So... Make the
:17:30. > :17:35.on the day. I like the banner. He hasn't washed

:18:36. > :18:37.It's been said that every painting has a story,

:18:41. > :18:43.The famous British artist painted 'Salisbury Cathedral
:18:44. > :18:46.The huge canvas is notable for its dramatic rainbow,
:18:47. > :18:50.but experts now believe it was added later as a tribute to a great friend

:19:10. > :19:22.We know it was first exhibited in 1831, but in the descriptions of it
:19:23. > :19:27.at that time there is no reference to a rainbow which is quite
:19:28. > :19:32.surprising considering it is the one thing that immediately comes to mind
:19:33. > :19:36.today. It's probably the most striking feature, isn't it? Yes and
:19:37. > :19:37.it adds an extra layer of personal meaning.
:19:38. > :19:38.Likewise, the lighting and cloud formations,
:19:39. > :19:45.Now, following years of research, there's an explanation.
:19:46. > :19:54.A rainbow is a bit like a clock. We've been able to date the rainbow
:19:55. > :20:01.to the day his best friend died. Not only is the rainbow equivalent to
:20:02. > :20:08.that day, but also the end of the rainbow Falls on to John Fisher's
:20:09. > :20:12.house. The rainbow is such a symbol of hope, it's a universally
:20:13. > :20:16.understood symbol and I think it was something very beautiful to honour
:20:17. > :20:23.his friend. It can't be far from here from the spot that he first sat

:20:35. > :20:46.The painting came about because of encouragement from his friend which
:20:47. > :20:51.we have documented in their letters. It completes the circle, doesn't it?
:20:52. > :20:56.It starts with the idea of John Fisher and it comes back to him with
:20:57. > :21:01.the addition of rainbow. A treasure -- treasured friendships

:23:13. > :23:13.waiting several days. We know it happens within a two

:23:24. > :23:26.by what we've seen here and yet we're still finding out new things

:23:53. > :23:56.the USP for the South Downs National Park is that we have an unbroken
:23:57. > :23:59.human history that goes back right to the Neolithic times and I think
:24:00. > :24:04.And you have travelled the world and we've spoken years ago on this

:24:30. > :24:32.Great to see you again and lovely film.
:24:33. > :25:04.We could see wind gusts in northern parts of Oxford and Buckinghamshire.
:25:05. > :25:09.Blustery winds elsewhere so we could see some fallen trees. Many of you
:25:10. > :25:15.have been out and about. It has been gloomy today. This was the scene on
:25:16. > :25:21.the Isle of Wight this morning with Hill missed in the distance. But
:25:22. > :25:26.better in Henley-on-Thames this afternoon. So we did see some
:25:27. > :25:34.sunshine. We will see patchy rain in places tonight with dry interludes.
:25:35. > :25:38.The odd moderate to heavy burst is a possibility ahead of the main band
:25:39. > :25:44.of rain expected to arrive tomorrow morning which could be heavy in the
:25:45. > :25:49.rush. Staying mild tomorrow. Tomorrow morning the wind will
:25:50. > :25:55.strengthen to gale force and severe gales expected for northern parts of
:25:56. > :26:00.the reason -- region so a Met Office wind warning for the whole of the
:26:01. > :26:06.South. For Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire we may have an amber
:26:07. > :26:13.wind warning with potential gusts to 70 or 80 mph. The wind will
:26:14. > :26:16.strengthen from the south-west and showers will follow. But some
:26:17. > :26:25.sunshine, especially on the south coast tomorrow afternoon. Wind gusts
:26:26. > :26:32.up to 70 mph widely all northern parts of the reason but maybe up to
:26:33. > :26:37.80 mph. -- parts of the region. Tomorrow evening the wind will ease
:26:38. > :26:42.and then we will see clearing skies with the rain clearing as well and
:26:43. > :26:48.temperatures will fall away. Possibly a touch of frost in the
:26:49. > :26:53.countryside on Friday morning. These are temperatures in towns and
:26:54. > :26:57.cities. Friday is a much quieter day with brighter spells and staying
:26:58. > :27:05.mainly dry. The odd isolated shower is a possibility. A ridge of high
:27:06. > :27:09.pressure is building in. Through Friday and into Saturday it stays
:27:10. > :27:12.mainly dry and Saturday itself should be mainly dry and a lot
:27:13. > :27:16.milder than Friday. The Aber wind warning for northern parts of
:27:17. > :27:23.Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire tomorrow. Decent amounts of sunshine
:27:24. > :27:27.on Friday which is a complete contrast to storm Doris which is
:27:28. > :27:33.expected to arrive tomorrow. A lot going on so take care. We will
:27:34. > :27:38.have more news for you tonight. We will be back tomorrow at half past
:27:39. > :27:53.six. Thanks for watching. Good night.
:27:54. > :27:55.Good job, guys. We totally nailed it.
