I'm Laura Trant with the news in the south. | :00:13. | :00:16. | |
Campaigners in West Sussex say plans to build 1200 new homes | :00:17. | :00:18. | |
Three sites in Pagham have been earmarked for development to help | :00:19. | :00:22. | |
Standing together to protect the place they call home. | :00:23. | :00:32. | |
Residents of Pagham say plans to set aside this field and others for 1200 | :00:33. | :00:35. | |
houses would change the nature of their village forever. | :00:36. | :00:46. | |
In a village of 6000 people, we can't possibly maintain | :00:47. | :00:48. | |
and sustain developments of over 1200 houses. | :00:49. | :00:50. | |
The infrastructure is not there, the roads, drainage. | :00:51. | :00:52. | |
People will say that people do need houses and that change must come. | :00:53. | :00:59. | |
Yes, and we can take some, I think we know we'll have to takes | :01:00. | :01:02. | |
some, but not the amount being thrust on us. | :01:03. | :01:05. | |
Three main sites have been earmarked in Pagham as part | :01:06. | :01:08. | |
of Arun District Council's draft local plan. | :01:09. | :01:11. | |
In their neighbourhood plan villagers recommended | :01:12. | :01:12. | |
Another 2500 homes could be built at nearby Bersted. | :01:13. | :01:19. | |
Arun District Council says that the amount of land it's | :01:20. | :01:21. | |
required to allocate for housing has risen sharply in recent years, | :01:22. | :01:24. | |
It says all sites are tested for environmental and infrastructure | :01:25. | :01:30. | |
constraints and it says there will be a public consultation | :01:31. | :01:32. | |
before the local plan is looked at by a planning inspector. | :01:33. | :01:38. | |
The council says that applications are also being put forward | :01:39. | :01:41. | |
for community facilities including a primary school, but those gathered | :01:42. | :01:43. | |
here are convinced the local area can't take the strain of the scale | :01:44. | :01:46. | |
They are determined to make their voices heard. | :01:47. | :01:56. | |
An investigation is under way into the cause of a large fire that | :01:57. | :01:59. | |

Police and ambulance crews also attended. | :02:08. | :02:09. | |
The store and first floor accommodation was destroyed, | :02:10. | :02:11. | |
The RMT union has staged a one-day strike on Southern services, | :02:12. | :02:19. | |
as many people look to get away for the Easter break. | :02:20. | :02:24. | |
It's part of an ongoing dispute over staffing and the role of conductors. | :02:25. | :02:27. | |
A reduced service has been in place on some lines, | :02:28. | :02:29. | |
but Southern says it hopes to run 90% of its timetable. | :02:30. | :02:32. | |
This is the 33rd day of action taken to make sure that people's | :02:33. | :02:35. | |
And nothing's changed over that almost a year's process | :02:36. | :02:43. | |
with the proposals to remove guards from trains, and our guards | :02:44. | :02:47. | |
are still adamant it's not the safest way to operate our trains | :02:48. | :02:50. | |
The brand new Floating Bridge has arrived in Cowes ahead | :02:51. | :02:58. | |
The chain-driven vessel, built in Wales, has been | :02:59. | :03:02. | |
making its way around the country to its new home on the River Medina. | :03:03. | :03:09. | |
Crews will now be trained and systems tested, | :03:10. | :03:11. | |
the vessel has been organised by the council. | :03:12. | :03:15. | |
Onto football and following Brighton's win last night | :03:16. | :03:16. | |
in the Championship, today in the Premier | :03:17. | :03:18. | |
League Southampton also picked up three points. | :03:19. | :03:20. | |
A goal from Jordy Clasie was the difference as Saints beat | :03:21. | :03:23. | |
West Bromwich Albion 1-0 at the Hawthorns, to boost | :03:24. | :03:27. | |
Bournemouth are playing Chelsea in today's late kick off. | :03:28. | :03:34. | |
In the second half, they are currently losing 2-1. | :03:35. | :03:38. | |
In the Championship, Reading had a day to forget, | :03:39. | :03:40. | |
The Royals conceded six in the first half. | :03:41. | :03:43. | |
In League One, Swindon and MK Dons shared the points in a 1-1 draw, | :03:44. | :03:46. | |
while Oxford also drew away at Walsall. | :03:47. | :03:48. | |

Now, it was a lovely day for a walk along the coast today, | :03:51. | :03:55. | |
but in a dramatic moment last night two dog walkers narrowly avoided | :03:56. | :03:58. | |
being hit by a cliff fall at Yaverland on the Isle of Wight. | :03:59. | :04:03. | |
Just moments after Zoe Cox and friend Amber Wilcox had walked | :04:04. | :04:06. | |
past, a section of the sandy cliff fell away, just missing them. | :04:07. | :04:14. | |
Well, let's find out the rest of our weekend | :04:15. | :04:18. | |
A lovely day today, more sunshine tomorrow and temperatures could rise | :04:19. | :04:29. | |
a bit higher. Tonight it is very quiet in many respects, light winds, | :04:30. | :04:34. | |
clear skies, the risk of mist and fog and also frost a possibility. A | :04:35. | :04:39. | |
bit like last night. With the mist and fog tomorrow it will break | :04:40. | :04:43. | |
tomorrow, a bit more cloud feeding tomorrow, a bit more cloud feeding | :04:44. | :04:48. | |
into western areas later and temperatures in the low 20s. Cooler | :04:49. | :04:52. | |
along the coast as the breeze comes in off the sea. Temperatures take a | :04:53. | :04:54. | |
tumble as we head into next week. Have a lovely weekend. | :04:55. | :04:57. | |
evening at 6:50pm. What a spectacular day to day. | :04:58. | :05:22. | |
Hardly a cloud in the sky. Just clear blue skies around. A nice | :05:23. | :05:24. | |
picture here from Lincolnshire. This evening and overnight will turn | :05:25. | :05:35. | |
quite chilly. There will be a touch of brass frost. This is the | :05:36. | :05:39. | |
satellite image from early on. Not often do we see pictures like this. | :05:40. | :05:43. | |
Just a little bit of cloud in the North West of Scotland and that is | :05:44. | :05:48. | |
pretty much it. This evening, starry, starry skies. The | :05:49. | :05:55. | |
temperatures will dip away. It is cold enough for a bit of grass | :05:56. | :05:59. | |
Frost. | :06:00. | :06:01. |
