:01:57. > :02:04.on a piece of paper to say yes or No to the cull to that degree, they
:02:04. > :02:08.are very concerned. Activists have targeted by Je culls

:02:23. > :02:26.prevent violence and disorder when a badger cull goes ahead. They have
:02:26. > :02:32.given advice two prominent members of the farming community about

:04:54. > :04:59.was the conditions, more than anything.
:04:59. > :05:03.Rachel Mortimore had that -- national reputation. Her website
:05:03. > :05:08.spoke of her many achievements in the world of dog breeding and
:05:08. > :05:15.training. She had won prizes at Crufts. Her defence team argued she
:05:15. > :05:20.was a woman who devoted 25 years to caring for animals. In court today,
:05:20. > :05:22.the council said in the run-up to the RSPCA raid that she had simply
:05:22. > :05:27.taken and too many animals and her premises had become overstocked,
:05:27. > :05:32.but then she said it was a problem of her own making, because she
:05:32. > :05:36.would not turn away any animal. During the economic downturn, a lot
:05:36. > :05:42.were being brought to her. 300 animals, from chickens to horses,
:05:42. > :05:48.were being kept at Foxdown when the RSPCA they did. They argued these
:05:48. > :05:52.pictures prove Rachel Mortimore is not a fit person to keep animals.
:05:52. > :05:58.The magistrates agreed. They issued her with a life ban, but that ban
:05:58. > :06:08.cannot be implemented until an appeal is heard at a High Court.

:06:10. > :06:13.Rachel Mortimore was also ordered Further tributes have been paid to
:06:13. > :06:16.a soldier who was killed in Afghanistan. Corporal Mark Palin,
:06:16. > :06:20.whose family are from Plymouth, died in an explosion on Monday. He
:06:20. > :06:22.has been described as fearlessly brave. The tributes came as British
:06:22. > :06:25.troops handed over Helmand Province's capital, Lashkar Gah to
:06:25. > :06:27.the Afghan National Security forces. It is seen as another milestone

:07:08. > :07:13.Already it has been set in motion in Lashkar Gah to transfer of the
:07:13. > :07:17.security over. The Afghans are well we're in terms of what they need to
:07:17. > :07:22.provide in terms of security, but it is important to see transition
:07:22. > :07:27.in the Government's and development, as well.
:07:27. > :07:30.The Afghan police are already manning checkpoints here, and the
:07:30. > :07:36.provincial reconstruction team is the opening bazaars, bridges and
:07:36. > :07:40.schools. The biggest challenge is still winning over the Afghan
:07:40. > :07:45.people. Anyone will tell you that fighting does not create the
:07:45. > :07:50.solution, and we are there supporting the Afghan security
:07:50. > :07:55.forces, both police and military, to make sure they have the pick --
:07:55. > :08:00.to make sure they have the capability to make sure they have a

:08:38. > :08:43.Province, many troops say this tour has been less kinetic - put simply,
:08:43. > :08:49.there has been less fighting. The number of significant
:08:50. > :08:54.activities in terms of shooting and IEDs has decreased by about 58 % on
:08:54. > :08:57.this time last year. Many British troops really do seem
:08:57. > :09:02.to feel they are making a difference here in Helmand Province,
:09:02. > :09:05.but Afghanistan is a big country, and what is not clear whether that

:15:45. > :15:51.malaria every year. Already the test is 78 % accurate under
:15:51. > :15:54.clinical conditions. This optical tester took six years
:15:54. > :16:01.and �2.5 million to get here. The principle of the design is based on

:16:55. > :16:59.at the role of grammar schools in the south west. Tonight we explore
:16:59. > :17:01.how the system impacts on children who don't take the 11 plus - or who
:17:01. > :17:04.fail to get in. There are seven grammar schools
:17:04. > :17:07.remaining in the region - all in Devon. While they get impressive
:17:07. > :17:09.results, critics argue it is often at the expense of the other schools
:17:09. > :17:14.on their doorstep. Clare Casson reports.
:17:14. > :17:18.Us getting into grammar school was originally seen as the way for poor
:17:18. > :17:24.and able children to get the education they deserved. Today, the
:17:24. > :17:28.grammars in Devon Loch -- operate alongside state schools, and many
:17:28. > :17:32.educationalists say it the flipside of the grammar system means
:17:32. > :17:39.neighbouring schools are left with children who failed the 11-plus.
:17:39. > :17:47.There is no doubt, if you are, to use at crude populist term, a sink
:17:47. > :17:51.school, you have a challenge, because of the way the local area
:17:51. > :18:00.and community tend to view you. That can be a big joke and it to

:18:34. > :18:39.our back. It is quite a pressured job to teach and get the best bit
:18:39. > :18:46.of your students, and you have to be a good, inspirational teacher,
:18:46. > :18:51.working really hard. Paignton has had to tackle its

:18:59. > :19:03.avoiding the social gaps between grammar schools and non-selective
:19:03. > :19:08.schools. If you take the crude measurement of free school meals,
:19:08. > :19:15.the number having them around their grammar schools hovers around two

:21:17. > :21:22.looked sharp, and we are trying to find our feet, because although I
:21:22. > :21:26.have stayed at the same club for ten years, it is like a new club
:21:26. > :21:36.because there are so many new players. We are starting to gel, I
:21:36. > :21:41.
:21:41. > :21:43.Earlier this year you may remember we were joined by former Spotlight
:21:43. > :21:45.presenters Sheila Tracey and Joe Pengelly to celebrate the
:21:45. > :21:48.programme's 50th anniversary. In the early 1960's, regional
:21:48. > :21:51.television was being rolled out across the UK and it very quickly
:21:51. > :21:53.became required viewing for millions of people. Tonight some of
:21:53. > :21:57.the stories and personalities from 50 years of BBC regional television
:21:57. > :22:00.will be celebrated in a programme on BBC Four called Life Through a
:22:00. > :22:04.Local Lens. John Henderson has been taking a look at some South West
:22:04. > :22:07.highlights. This is Plymouth, where, according
:22:07. > :22:14.to a London fashion promoter, the men are much more fashion-conscious
:22:14. > :22:18.than the women. How often do you have a bath?
:22:18. > :22:21.Regional TV has never been afraid to ask the killer question...
:22:21. > :22:26.Do you think women should wear trousers?
:22:27. > :22:32.Nothing has changed. And the search for the truth
:22:32. > :22:37.uncovered some local stars... below, Castro not so, I don't
:22:37. > :22:42.suppose you expect to see me on a rock-and-roll programme.
:22:42. > :22:49.They did a few risks... Health and Safety! He is hanging
:22:49. > :22:51.out the back! Smoke-filled TV galleries put news
:22:51. > :22:58.on the small screen and created celebrities.
:22:58. > :23:02.People felt there was an ownership because she walked -- worked in
:23:02. > :23:08.local telly, and they would stop you and ask for your autograph, or,
:23:08. > :23:13.as happened to me once, I was in the supermarket and a bloke came up
:23:13. > :23:23.to you and said, here, argue that one that works on the telly? I
:23:23. > :23:27.
:23:27. > :23:31.I must get a real one. He would not be allowed to smoulder
:23:31. > :23:34.in a BBC building, not now. That his life through the local
:23:34. > :23:39.lens at 9pm this evening on BBC Four.
:23:39. > :23:44.I love the question, should women wear trousers? Guess who wears them
:23:44. > :23:54.around here? Let's see what other weather has in
:23:54. > :23:56.
:23:56. > :24:02.We have had an awful day today, dreadful conditions for the RNAS
:24:02. > :24:07.Culdrose Air Day. It is on the cool side, but hopefully somewhat
:24:07. > :24:13.brighter for all of us to enjoy. There is a lot on the satellite
:24:13. > :24:19.picture at the moment, this cloud is the area of low pressure. We
:24:19. > :24:24.already have some clear skies to the west of Wales. We did kill off
:24:24. > :24:29.the showers, and once that low pressure admittedly it is more
:24:29. > :24:35.straightforward. We have northerly winds, so it is on the cool side,
:24:35. > :24:39.but also some sunshine, and Dad will be on offer tomorrow. More
:24:39. > :24:44.showers on Friday, and into the weekend there is more fine weather,
:24:44. > :24:51.at least for Saturday. This is the picture from earlier. Some breaks
:24:51. > :24:56.in the cloud, but particularly in Portland it was pretty wet. There
:24:56. > :25:03.was not really a breath of wind for some of these sailors cannot really
:25:03. > :25:08.struggling, and with the rain a fairly miserable sale. Some of the
:25:08. > :25:12.sailors are really struggling to cope with the conditions. More of a
:25:12. > :25:16.breeze tomorrow, and Northern a breeze bringing cooler, fresher
:25:16. > :25:20.conditions. Wall will there is a lot of cloud at the moment, it is
:25:20. > :25:27.effectively dry, good news for the Plymouth Argyle match this evening
:25:27. > :25:30.and for the Kingsbridge fireworks display, also this evening. That
:25:30. > :25:34.cloud will not a week later tonight, and for a time in the early hours
:25:34. > :25:39.of the morning a lot of clear skies. Temperatures lower than recently
:25:39. > :25:44.come at a few places getting to eight Celsius, the coast always a
:25:44. > :25:50.bit warmer at 11 or 12 Celsius. Tomorrow we have some fine weather
:25:50. > :25:54.to start, some sunshine, scattered showers, but you may get a weight
:25:54. > :26:01.with a fine, dry day, even with some Giffords -- decent spells of
:26:01. > :26:08.sunshine. Temperatures a little higher, 18 Celsius, possibly 19th a
:26:08. > :26:13.top temperature, with a gentle, occasionally moderate to fresh
:26:13. > :26:17.north-westerly wind. For the Isles of Scilly, the risk of showers,
:26:17. > :26:27.effectively dry for much of the day with sunny spells developing. Times
:26:27. > :26:44.
:26:44. > :26:49.The forecast for Friday. More showers, bright and dry on Saturday,
:26:49. > :26:54.a fine start on Sunday, cloudy with more rain later in the day.
