Hello, good evening, you're watching South Today.

:00:00.:00:07.

a paramedic to look after patients in corridors to avoid

:00:08.:00:13.

scenes like these, queuing ambulances outside A

:00:14.:00:17.

Could shipbuilding return to Portsmouth?

:00:18.:00:21.

The decision to concentrate work in Scotland is now under scrutiny.

:00:22.:00:25.

And the Magpies steal a win from the Seagulls in the battle

:00:26.:00:28.

A Dorset hospital's employed a paramedic to look

:00:29.:00:43.

The pilot scheme at the Royal Bournemouth is designed to allow

:00:44.:00:50.

ambulances to get back on the road rather than being tied

:00:51.:00:53.

up until patients have been admitted to a bed.

:00:54.:00:55.

It's cut average ambulance turnaround times from around

:00:56.:00:57.

This year there's been a ten percent increase in attendances at A and E.

:00:58.:01:02.

Our Health correspondent David Fenton has followed one

:01:03.:01:08.

patient, Iris, who had a fall at home....

:01:09.:01:15.

being seen by Fran, who works in the corridor outside accident and

:01:16.:01:20.

She is here from 12 noon until midnight.

:01:21.:01:24.

She can look after four patients at a time.

:01:25.:01:27.

While Iris is in the corridor with me, I am going to keep an eye

:01:28.:01:31.

Anything I think that is a problem, I can escalate it to the staff

:01:32.:01:39.

Anything she might need, I can request.

:01:40.:01:42.

As long as she is OK, I am happy in the corridor

:01:43.:01:45.

The ambulance crew can leave without having to wait for Iris to

:01:46.:01:49.

We are taking the patient in, managed to hand them

:01:50.:01:53.

over within the 15 minutes target time, which is really good.

:01:54.:01:56.

We will now come clear and head to the next one.

:01:57.:01:58.

Staff here have been looking at new ways

:01:59.:02:00.

like Fran and private ambulances to bring patients in quickly.

:02:01.:02:05.

Back in the corridor and something is wrong.

:02:06.:02:07.

So Fran takes her to resuscitation area.

:02:08.:02:15.

First thing I have done is I have picked up

:02:16.:02:22.

It has happened in just a few minutes but Iris has now been

:02:23.:02:29.

admitted to a hospital bed and she is doing well.

:02:30.:02:31.

Three years ago, Portsmouth was dealt a huge blow with the closure

:02:32.:02:34.

With a lack of new orders, a decision was made

:02:35.:02:38.

But, that strategy is now under scrutiny.

:02:39.:02:41.

And, as Steve Humphrey reports, there's a chance that naval ship

:02:42.:02:44.

A spectacular show celebrated the return of shipbuilding

:02:45.:02:53.

to Portsmouth with the conclusion of HMS Clyde in 2006.

:02:54.:02:55.

but the yard closed in 2014 after sections of the new naval

:02:56.:02:59.

BAE concentrated work in Scotland, because of a national shortage of

:03:00.:03:07.

The low number of warships and orders of course

:03:08.:03:20.

leads to problems in production lines and the investment you put

:03:21.:03:22.

Today, the industrialist who was asked by ministers to

:03:23.:03:28.

come up with a new national shipbuilding strategy told MPs

:03:29.:03:31.

poor planning and cost overruns have had a big impact in the past.

:03:32.:03:34.

Sir John Parker said future ships could be

:03:35.:03:36.

built around the country to boost competition.

:03:37.:03:37.

If we can build these ships on time, with a grip on the

:03:38.:03:46.

specification and cost, then we will undoubtedly accumulate

:03:47.:03:48.

Could shipbuilding return to the south?

:03:49.:03:57.

Quite a lot of the facilities still exist.

:03:58.:03:59.

And I think how easily the BAE Systems set up the carrier

:04:00.:04:01.

component programme, that shows you how quickly

:04:02.:04:06.

Unless the politicians say we do want to diversify and spread some of

:04:07.:04:13.

this around the rest of the UK, it will not happen.

:04:14.:04:18.

And will publish its new national shipbuilding strategy in the summer.

:04:19.:04:20.

It said it remained committed to having 19 front-line frigates and

:04:21.:04:23.

Work on the new type 26 frigates will start

:04:24.:04:26.

It is expected that yards around the country, including

:04:27.:04:29.

here in the south, may well be able to bid for work on the follow-up

:04:30.:04:33.

Britain's naval fleet dates back more than a thousand years -

:04:34.:04:47.

and while big ships remain crucial to our defence the future

:04:48.:04:50.

of warfare is likely to be smaller and unmanned.

:04:51.:04:52.

Our Political Editor Peter Henley has looked at the role of drone

:04:53.:04:55.

It flies at 45mph and weighs less than ?2 coin using

:04:56.:05:09.

This is the next generation of military drone.

:05:10.:05:13.

It is being developed by animal dynamics,

:05:14.:05:15.

a spin off country from the Oxford University zoology department.

:05:16.:05:18.

We are making a drone that flaps like an insect does.

:05:19.:05:20.

It has natural suspension, can tolerate

:05:21.:05:23.

high winds and it really goes to the heart of what we are about,

:05:24.:05:26.

looking at how you can derive higher performance and efficiency by

:05:27.:05:29.

Visiting the university, defence secretary Sir Michael Fallon

:05:30.:05:39.

said the armed forces are increasingly at the cutting edge

:05:40.:05:41.

I would like to make it easier for small,

:05:42.:05:47.

to come to defence to bring their ideas,

:05:48.:05:50.

their products, and see if

:05:51.:05:51.

they can be used by the Armed Forces.

:05:52.:05:53.

That has been too slow in the past, too bureaucratic and they

:05:54.:05:56.

have found difficulty getting funding.

:05:57.:06:00.

The Ministry of Defence has announced a Dragons'

:06:01.:06:02.

Den style panel of experts to help provide advice.

:06:03.:06:04.

Also pushing the frontiers of military kits, Tim

:06:05.:06:06.

Peake, an Army major, will join the panel.

:06:07.:06:08.

From the time of the Spitfire onwards, when Britain has faced a

:06:09.:06:11.

hostile threat, we have stepped up technology to answer it.

:06:12.:06:14.

The Ministry of Defence is warning that,

:06:15.:06:15.

in an age of cyber warfare, our best technology experts have an important

:06:16.:06:18.

Because you can be sure that, if we are capable

:06:19.:06:23.

of developing these sorts of weapons, other countries

:06:24.:06:25.

Professor Jim Scanlan from the university of Southampton

:06:26.:06:45.

is an expert in drone technology, he was in Bosham, in West Sussex,

:06:46.:06:48.

I asked him what the next generation of drones might do.

:06:49.:06:51.

Traditionally, in military, they've spoke about applications that are

:06:52.:06:54.

We now referred to the four Ds - dull, dirty,

:06:55.:07:10.

The advantage of having very small drones is

:07:11.:07:18.

you can distribute them, so

:07:19.:07:19.

you can undertake a collective task, for example.

:07:20.:07:21.

So, we talking about new technology and artificial

:07:22.:07:23.

very small, more done units that are potentially cheaper,

:07:24.:07:34.

that are more effective, more liable than a large,

:07:35.:07:37.

It's not just aircraft though, is it?

:07:38.:07:39.

So, there is a very successful company based in

:07:40.:07:43.

Portsmouth called Autonomous Surface Vessels that already make target

:07:44.:07:45.

boats for the Navy but are doing a lot of work in other applications,

:07:46.:07:48.

particularly surveillance, for example.

:07:49.:07:54.

And how did you see the future for these type of vessels?

:07:55.:08:00.

Particularly underwater, minesweeping.

:08:01.:08:01.

It's something that easy to automate and very desirable

:08:02.:08:03.

Often, you can get a better results because you are using

:08:04.:08:06.

things like artificial intelligence and the system doesn't get old.

:08:07.:08:16.

Is there a risk that a more you remove

:08:17.:08:18.

your personnel from your military, the more likely it is that you might

:08:19.:08:22.

take military action because there is less risk to your side?

:08:23.:08:27.

Yes, I think that is a particular danger,

:08:28.:08:29.

and we've seen recently terrorist use of drones, which is a very

:08:30.:08:32.

We have a colleague in the UK, called Noel Sharkey, who

:08:33.:08:43.

does a lot of very useful work on the ethics of drones and when we

:08:44.:08:47.

talk about things like artificial intelligence,

:08:48.:08:48.

making sure drones are

:08:49.:08:49.

given the right set of rules for engagement.

:08:50.:08:52.

Professor Jim Scanlan, thank you very much for joining us.

:08:53.:08:59.

Football and the top two in the Championship went head

:09:00.:09:01.

Brighton were looking to take another big step towards promotion

:09:02.:09:06.

to the Premier League - but it wasn't meant to be.

:09:07.:09:08.

The Seagulls made a good start taking

:09:09.:09:10.

to the ground but got up to fire in his 17th goal of the season.

:09:11.:09:20.

The scoreline remained 1-0 until the 81st minute when Newcastle

:09:21.:09:22.

equalised with this shot from Mohamed Diame.

:09:23.:09:25.

And, the magpies secured themselves three points

:09:26.:09:32.

with Ayoze Perez's goal in extra time.

:09:33.:09:33.

Final score 2-1 - leaving Newcastle two points clear

:09:34.:09:36.

Thats the latest thanks for being there, we'll be back

:09:37.:09:47.

with bulletins in BBC Breakfast tomorrow morning but now here's

:09:48.:09:49.

Yes, very much so. It will turn chilly with a clearing sky, maybe

:09:50.:10:03.

Frosterley countryside and sheltered spots. The of ice around untreated

:10:04.:10:08.

surfaces. Most visible start the day tomorrow on a drying out and

:10:09.:10:11.

temperatures in the countryside to Nigel dropped to freezing. Through

:10:12.:10:18.

because the moral, a sunny start like this morning, cloud increasing

:10:19.:10:21.

quickly and a band of rain looking in from the west. Turning him for a

:10:22.:10:27.

time, like Apache, some dry as well. Which is the moral verisimilitude

:10:28.:10:31.

today, reaching a chilly high of 6-8 C. Gale-force winds tomorrow

:10:32.:10:38.

night, and during the early hours of Thursday morning. Starting Thursday

:10:39.:10:42.

daytime, expecting more sunshine and dry weather as well. Mainly dry

:10:43.:10:47.

during the course of the day, the odd isolated shower is a possibility

:10:48.:10:52.

and Thursday is a pretty breezy day. Tomorrow is the first day of spring

:10:53.:10:57.

in the media world, calendar, it is the 20th of March tomorrow... Some

:10:58.:11:00.

sunny spells is the nicest day of the next view,

:11:01.:11:01.

otherwise chilly and unsettled. Good evening. We are about to head

:11:02.:11:12.

into March, the days are getting longer, but are they getting any

:11:13.:11:16.

warmer? Not really. We will get there in the end, but we will have

:11:17.:11:20.

to be patient, not very springlike at the moment. Some showers

:11:21.:11:25.

scattered around across England and Wales will tend to diminish

:11:26.:11:27.
