I'm Edward Sault with the news in the South.

:00:09.:00:11.

It's a job where you're saving lives every day -

:00:12.:00:14.

So South Central Ambulance opened its doors to the public today

:00:15.:00:18.

Currently, around 15% of posts are vacant

:00:19.:00:22.

Unions say attracting and retaining recruits is a problem

:00:23.:00:26.

because of the pressures staff face, but the trust says it offers

:00:27.:00:29.

I'm just going to listen to your chest for a second.

:00:30.:00:37.

Showing off their skills for an audience who may

:00:38.:00:39.

This open day at South Central Ambulance's headquarters in Bicester

:00:40.:00:44.

More than 400 vacancies across a wide range

:00:45.:00:49.

The thought of caring for people, being there for them when they are

:00:50.:00:55.

in their time of need, I think really just appeals to me.

:00:56.:00:59.

If you become a volunteer first responder,

:01:00.:01:04.

as I want to start with, one day, I might become

:01:05.:01:07.

Last year, South Central Ambulance, which serves Hampshire,

:01:08.:01:15.

Oxfordshire, Buckinghamshire and Berkshire, became the first

:01:16.:01:18.

ambulance service to be rated good in England.

:01:19.:01:20.

The unions say the pressures members face here and at

:01:21.:01:23.

other trusts make recruiting and retaining staff a big issue.

:01:24.:01:27.

Unfortunately, our ambulance crews are going out to call after call at

:01:28.:01:33.

Now, it's a stressful job and the more stress you are

:01:34.:01:40.

under, the more you are likely to think, well, maybe I should be

:01:41.:01:42.

It is a very pressurised environment, but what we

:01:43.:01:46.

hope to be able to do today is to attract

:01:47.:01:49.

despite those pressures, it really is a rewarding job and one that

:01:50.:01:53.

The trust sometimes calls on agencies to fill apps.

:01:54.:01:58.

Reducing those costs is one reason why

:01:59.:02:00.

With another opened a planned soon in

:02:01.:02:08.

Hampshire and an ongoing search overseas, it says it is doing all it

:02:09.:02:10.

can to attract new talent and to support existing staff.

:02:11.:02:18.

A family with young children were threatened by three masked men

:02:19.:02:20.

who forced their way into their home in Poole last night.

:02:21.:02:23.

The gang stole high-value Asian jewellery and cash

:02:24.:02:25.

Police say no-one was injured in the ordeal.

:02:26.:02:31.

All three suspects are described as white, in their early 20s

:02:32.:02:31.

In the '50s, she was known as Britain's blonde bombshell -

:02:32.:02:38.

and became a successful film and TV actress.

:02:39.:02:40.

Diana Dors was born Diana Mary Fluck in Swindon in 1931.

:02:41.:02:43.

Today, her son and grand-daughter unveiled a blue plaque honouring

:02:44.:02:46.

the late star at her birthplace in Kent Road.

:02:47.:02:49.

It followed a campaign by the group Swindon Heritage.

:02:50.:02:55.

It's really quite flattering to know that my grandmother

:02:56.:02:57.

is still so well-known and still so well thought of.

:02:58.:03:00.

She was a very business minded woman.

:03:01.:03:03.

She worked very hard for everything and she was an incredible actress

:03:04.:03:08.

Onto this afternoon's football and in the Premier League,

:03:09.:03:13.

a penalty from Junior Stanislas gave Bournemouth an early lead at Hull.

:03:14.:03:18.

But the home side, who started the day at the foot of the table,

:03:19.:03:19.

And no better news for Southampton fans, I'm afraid.

:03:20.:03:25.

It's now four league defeats in a row for Claude Puel's men,

:03:26.:03:27.

In the Championship, Brighton lost 2-0 at Preston

:03:28.:03:33.

and saw their lead at the top of the table cut to two points.

:03:34.:03:36.

In League One, Oxford were beaten 2-1 at Wimbledon.

:03:37.:03:39.

MK Dons' match at Port Vale was postponed because of snow.

:03:40.:03:45.

And in League Two, Portsmouth beat Leyton Orient 2-1 at Fratton Park.

:03:46.:03:51.

Before the weather, just to let you know our current affairs

:03:52.:03:54.

programme the Sunday Politics will be taking a look at the issues

:03:55.:03:57.

That's tomorrow at 11 o'clock on BBC One.

:03:58.:04:03.

Now it's the weather with Bee Tucker.

:04:04.:04:07.

We have still got the risk of some showers heading through the night,

:04:08.:04:18.

we could see some sleet mixed in as well.

:04:19.:04:20.

Most towns and cities staying above freezing but rural

:04:21.:04:24.

areas could see a touch of frost first thing.

:04:25.:04:28.

And that brings the risk of some ice, particularly further east.

:04:29.:04:32.

A cloudy day tomorrow, any wintry stuff quickly turning

:04:33.:04:46.

to rain as we get this milder air pushing in.

:04:47.:04:49.

Lighter winds but a damp day, a lot of mist, low cloud and hill fog.

:04:50.:04:50.

to rain as we get this milder air pushing in.

:04:51.:04:54.

Getting the detail of this cold snap is proving to be challenging and

:04:55.:05:19.

will continue to be so over the next 24 hours. Ice around across eastern

:05:20.:05:23.

parts after the earlier showers then rain pushing in from Northern

:05:24.:05:27.

Ireland across Scotland and a period of snow across eastern Scotland

:05:28.:05:32.

temporarily. It will extend into northern Wales and England too. A

:05:33.:05:38.

chilly night across the East, much milder. Tomorrow, everything nudges

:05:39.:05:42.

further east which gives us an issue because a period of snow across

:05:43.:05:47.

Lincolnshire and East Anglia could give a

:05:48.:05:48.
