The mystery solved. What caused hundreds of seabirds to be washed | :00:16. | :00:20. | |
up along our coastline? The substance is non-toxic but | :00:20. | :00:24. | |
scientists warned that they could contaminate many more words for | :00:24. | :00:28. | |
months to come. Also tonight, the biggest shake-up in history of | :00:28. | :00:33. | |
fisheries policy. Europe agrees sweeping reforms, including banning | :00:34. | :00:37. | |
the practice of throwing back dead fish. This is a culture that has to | :00:37. | :00:40. | |
change. We have to incentivise fisherment to fish in a more | :00:40. | :00:49. | |
sustainable way. This is a big step along the way to achieving that. | :00:49. | :00:52. | |
And what lies beneath? The valuable legacy of tin mining which is | :00:52. | :00:59. | |
dividing opinion in Cornwall. A BBC investigation in conjunction with | :00:59. | :01:02. | |
scientists at Plymouth University has managed to identify the mystery | :01:02. | :01:04. | |
substance that's affected hundreds of seabirds along the region's | :01:04. | :01:12. | |
coast. More than 300 birds, mostly guillemots, but also some | :01:12. | :01:15. | |
razorbills and auks, are being treated at the RSPCA West Hatch | :01:15. | :01:17. | |
centre near Taunton after being contaminated by the substance. | :01:17. | :01:22. | |
Spotlight's Andy Breare reports. For the last few days, scientists | :01:22. | :01:26. | |
at the University of Plymouth have been analysing the mysterious | :01:26. | :01:30. | |
substance in the hope of not only have been to find it but helping to | :01:30. | :01:37. | |
find out just where it came from. Today they revealed their findings. | :01:37. | :01:43. | |
The data supports the identification of this as | :01:43. | :01:49. | |
polyisobutene. It is a routine additive that is added to lubricate | :01:49. | :01:52. | |
oils to prove their function and quality. It is transported around | :01:52. | :01:57. | |
the world. It is a very sticky substance, it is a semi solid and | :01:57. | :02:05. | |
it acts on the feathers of the birds like glue, really. At the | :02:05. | :02:08. | |
RSPCA centre in a West Hatch, near Taunton, work is continuing to | :02:08. | :02:11. | |
clean and care for around 300 seabirds that have been affected in | :02:11. | :02:18. | |
the last week. Staff at the centre welcome the University's research. | :02:18. | :02:23. | |
Write down we're doing what we're going to continue to do. -- right | :02:23. | :02:29. | |
now. That is going to stay the same based on their identification of | :02:29. | :02:35. | |
what it is. Long-term, it is crucial. We will look back at this, | :02:35. | :02:39. | |
analyse the event and how we dealt with the birds. Will make reference | :02:39. | :02:46. | |
to what we were dealing with later on. The University's research makes | :02:46. | :02:51. | |
from unpleasant environmental reading. The success takes a long | :02:51. | :02:55. | |
time to biodegrade, which means that more seabirds could still be | :02:55. | :03:01. | |
affected by the same spillage. is quite big as a molecule and | :03:01. | :03:05. | |
difficult for bacteria and other weathering processes to break down. | :03:05. | :03:09. | |
Residue will probably stay around, although hopefully not in this mass | :03:09. | :03:14. | |
that polluted the birds. But yes, it is probably going to be there | :03:14. | :03:19. | |
for some time, I would suggest. University's findings have been | :03:19. | :03:23. | |
passed on to the RSPCA and Maritime and Coastguard Agency in the hope | :03:23. | :03:29. | |
that the vessel responsible can be a identified and action can be | :03:29. | :03:34. | |
taken. The Maritime and Coastguard Agency are now assessing Plymouth | :03:34. | :03:37. | |
University's findings. Earlier I asked the MCA's head of counter- | :03:37. | :03:44. | |
pollution whether the discharge of this substance was permitted. | :03:44. | :03:49. | |
it is on certain occasions, allowed to be discharged into the sea. The | :03:49. | :03:58. | |
maritime pollution regulations make an exception for this and they can | :03:58. | :04:02. | |
take some of the residue from the bulk carrying tanks, so under | :04:02. | :04:06. | |
stringent conditions it can be released into the auction, outside | :04:06. | :04:12. | |
12 miles from the nearest point of land, and then very small | :04:12. | :04:16. | |
concentrations. Bearing in mind the extent of the pollution - we had | :04:16. | :04:19. | |
reports of birds being washed up all the way from Cornwall along to | :04:19. | :04:25. | |
the coast of Hampshire, is it your view that Hoover was stumping this | :04:25. | :04:31. | |
is doing it within the parameters you set out, or not? We have no | :04:31. | :04:38. | |
idea. We don't know the location. The birds are spread out along much | :04:38. | :04:42. | |
of the south coast and we have had reports from as far afield as | :04:42. | :04:46. | |
Belgium although we're not sure if it is the same contaminant. We | :04:46. | :04:50. | |
don't have enough information to allow us to localise the problem to | :04:50. | :04:55. | |
decide how much of this contaminant was in the water. What I am trying | :04:55. | :04:59. | |
to get to is that what the parameters that you have described, | :04:59. | :05:03. | |
surely the consequence should not be that hundreds of sea birds | :05:03. | :05:06. | |
should be affected if it should only be small amounts released into | :05:06. | :05:11. | |
the sea. If it was a permissible discharge then the amount that | :05:11. | :05:17. | |
would be discharged is extremely small, and the concentrations would | :05:17. | :05:22. | |
be extremely small. It could be highly unlikely that this would | :05:22. | :05:28. | |
result in the sort of contamination that we have seen. Again, it is all | :05:28. | :05:33. | |
part of this very complex problem, which we have got to tackle, | :05:33. | :05:38. | |
sometimes in parallel with information requests, and sometimes | :05:38. | :05:43. | |
in sequins. At the moment we are in the data gathering phrase to try | :05:43. | :05:47. | |
and narrowed down the precise characteristics and possible areas | :05:47. | :05:57. | |
:05:57. | :06:04. | ||
of pollution that we are looking The reforms will put an end to a | :06:04. | :06:07. | |
cost of Russia practice of discarding dead -- - fit fish back | :06:07. | :06:13. | |
into the sea following high-profile campaigns from celebrity chefs. It | :06:13. | :06:18. | |
is a site that has long angered environmentalists. Perfectly good | :06:18. | :06:24. | |
fish being thrown back into the sea, dead. Sometimes you to the quota | :06:24. | :06:28. | |
limits and sometimes just not popular on police. TV chef Hugh | :06:29. | :06:31. | |
Fearnley-Whittingstall has been leading a campaign encouraging the | :06:32. | :06:37. | |
public to eight different species of fish to stop these being wasted. | :06:37. | :06:42. | |
The South West has been leading the way in eliminating this cards. The | :06:42. | :06:46. | |
trawler fleet uses carefully designed gear to help eliminate | :06:46. | :06:51. | |
this card before they might even get to the boat. We have also seen | :06:51. | :06:58. | |
a lot of progress generally, so the vote today is good news for West | :06:58. | :07:03. | |
Country fishermen, for sure. There is a move away from the quota | :07:03. | :07:07. | |
system to a maximum sustainable yield. This will place a limit on | :07:07. | :07:10. | |
the cash for each species are based on how quickly their stocks | :07:10. | :07:14. | |
replenished. There are plans for new funding to support smaller, | :07:14. | :07:21. | |
coastal fishing fleets. It is generally in our favour and most | :07:21. | :07:26. | |
fishermen, ones they have had a chance to look at what has happened, | :07:26. | :07:31. | |
to be able to digest what has happened, will be able to look at | :07:31. | :07:36. | |
it and say that this is either a good thing or it is not, but | :07:36. | :07:42. | |
predominantly, a move in this direction has got to be good. | :07:42. | :07:45. | |
has come at a time when smaller police are trying to wrestle more | :07:45. | :07:50. | |
control of their fisheries, balancing commercial needs with | :07:50. | :07:55. | |
those of marine conservation. The fishermen here in Lyme Bay have | :07:55. | :08:00. | |
come up with their own code of conduct which they believe could be | :08:00. | :08:04. | |
a way forward, which could promote sustainability and protect their | :08:04. | :08:13. | |
Our Political Editor Martyn Oates joins us now live from Westminster. | :08:13. | :08:23. | |
:08:23. | :08:28. | ||
So quite a lot of celebration today, Martyn? There has been intense | :08:28. | :08:34. | |
lobbying of MPs to bought through these proposals and also opposition | :08:34. | :08:37. | |
within the European Parliament, people who agree that discards are | :08:37. | :08:41. | |
wrong and need to stop but that this needs to be phased in slowly | :08:41. | :08:45. | |
so that the fishing industry can adapt more easily to the new | :08:45. | :08:51. | |
situation. MEP Plummer voted by almost four to one to get on with | :08:51. | :08:57. | |
the job immediately. Who will this isn't the end of the story, is | :08:57. | :09:01. | |
it? Unlike the parliament across the road at the European Parliament | :09:01. | :09:06. | |
does not have the power to make these decisions single-handedly. It | :09:06. | :09:10. | |
shares that power with the Council of Ministers who represent each | :09:10. | :09:13. | |
member state. They might have referred it back to the Council of | :09:13. | :09:19. | |
Ministers, and these two bodies need to Hank-Cameron out some kind | :09:19. | :09:23. | |
of agreement. There is opposition to it from big fishing states like | :09:23. | :09:28. | |
Spain and France. One British MEP said that this is simply the end of | :09:28. | :09:36. | |
the beginning, and that there are still yawning gaps in the issues | :09:36. | :09:44. | |
contested by the parties involved in these negotiations. A company | :09:45. | :09:48. | |
which wants to recover thousands of tons of tin from the sea off the | :09:48. | :09:51. | |
Cornish coast says it will bring 100 jobs and help boost the | :09:51. | :09:53. | |
county's economy. But, environmental campaigners say the | :09:53. | :09:56. | |
project could affect beaches and harm wildlife. Survey work is due | :09:56. | :09:59. | |
to start off the North Cornwall coast in a few weeks. David George | :09:59. | :10:02. | |
has this report. This is the usual image of Cornwall's mining legacy. | :10:02. | :10:07. | |
But, out there beneath the waves, there was something left over from | :10:07. | :10:12. | |
hundreds of years of mining - thick deposits containing fine acting, | :10:12. | :10:16. | |
too small to be recovered that the mind, and allowed to drain into | :10:16. | :10:24. | |
rivers. Even there, the old miners' strike to recover it. By 1870s | :10:24. | :10:30. | |
there were 4010 streaming France working the Red River including one | :10:30. | :10:33. | |
right down year on the beach. And it was the material they missed | :10:33. | :10:39. | |
that was washed out to see that the new company wants to recover. | :10:39. | :10:44. | |
amounts have been brought to the surface and dressed, sometimes | :10:44. | :10:50. | |
efficiently, sometimes inefficiently. Quite a lot of pin | :10:50. | :10:55. | |
was lost down into the red river. The company says that there could | :10:55. | :10:59. | |
be at least 100 jobs, and more for suppliers and contractors. They | :10:59. | :11:04. | |
want to remove the sediment, remove that endearing Material then return | :11:04. | :11:08. | |
the waste to the Connecticut war. They claimed it is not dredging. | :11:08. | :11:13. | |
We're not going to just be scraping the top with a vacuum. We're going | :11:13. | :11:16. | |
to be digging the depth of the deposit, so it is going to have a | :11:17. | :11:22. | |
limited footprint over a period of time. It has much less | :11:22. | :11:30. | |
environmental impact than had dredging operation. Sand is a vital | :11:30. | :11:34. | |
for surfing. There is the regeneration of pollutants. When | :11:34. | :11:38. | |
you disrupt sediment, pollutants into the environment again | :11:38. | :11:42. | |
endangering water users and the environment again. Finally, we are | :11:42. | :11:46. | |
talking about flora and fauna, the animals that live off the seabed | :11:46. | :11:52. | |
and feed off it, can be impacted dramatically. By a public | :11:52. | :11:58. | |
consultation and impact assessment will be done before the | :11:58. | :11:59. | |
Government's money management organisation decides if the project | :11:59. | :12:09. | |
:12:09. | :12:11. | ||
can be licensed. -- marine �10 million of cuts in council | :12:11. | :12:14. | |
services are being outlined by the Mayor of Torbay tonight. Critics | :12:14. | :12:17. | |
say that, per head of population, the cuts will be among the highest | :12:17. | :12:20. | |
in the south west. Gordon Oliver wants to freeze Council Tax bills. | :12:20. | :12:23. | |
But as Hamish Marshall reports, some tourism services and pre- | :12:23. | :12:27. | |
school education are among areas where savings will be made. On a | :12:27. | :12:31. | |
sunny day you can see why the Torbay coastline is so popular with | :12:31. | :12:35. | |
tourists. But, could how the council spends his budget hit the | :12:35. | :12:41. | |
region's biggest industry? The Maja's plan to cut C6 staffing | :12:41. | :12:46. | |
could make beaches less attractive to visitors. One of the effects of | :12:46. | :12:50. | |
cutting staff at beaches could mean that we are no longer able to | :12:50. | :12:53. | |
display blue flags which could have a knock-on effect on tourism | :12:53. | :12:59. | |
business. We're having to cut budgets for the tourism company | :12:59. | :13:03. | |
that could have knock-on effects on the number of visitors. That is the | :13:03. | :13:11. | |
conundrum facing Torbay council. Gordon Oliver will outline how he's | :13:11. | :13:14. | |
going to save �10 million, ironically, within a building that | :13:14. | :13:20. | |
the council has already sold off. Parents at this nursery in Brixham | :13:20. | :13:25. | |
could be at the sharp end of saving money. It is in line to close this | :13:25. | :13:34. | |
summer, just six years after opening, because of falling numbers. | :13:34. | :13:39. | |
It is going to be something that will not be possible, that is gone, | :13:39. | :13:43. | |
getting this respite care. Parents are angry that the nursery has not | :13:43. | :13:48. | |
been allowed to advertise for new youngsters. Parents might have to | :13:48. | :13:52. | |
go outside Brixham for childcare. Other parents might consider having | :13:52. | :13:57. | |
to give up work. It is a lovely community to live in and an | :13:57. | :14:02. | |
important community, and I hope that the mere will see that, if it | :14:02. | :14:08. | |
closes, you'll be closing Brixham to young working families. The man | :14:08. | :14:12. | |
in charge of children's services told me that there are enough spare | :14:12. | :14:17. | |
places to cope with most of the displaced youngsters, and that the | :14:17. | :14:22. | |
chestnut nursery was losing too much money. That �80,000 could be | :14:22. | :14:25. | |
used elsewhere for the most abominable children and that is | :14:26. | :14:29. | |
where we have to make those difficult decisions outside the | :14:29. | :14:34. | |
budget - could that money be spent in a better way? The mayor says | :14:34. | :14:42. | |
that he does not believe people in Torbay can afford a rise in council | :14:42. | :14:47. | |
tax, so the council will quick ham -- quite simply have to do less. | :14:47. | :14:50. | |
Still to come on Spotlight tonight: a sports star of the future. The | :14:50. | :14:53. | |
Devon teenager already on track to be a world class athlete. And meet | :14:53. | :14:56. | |
the apprentices - we'll be following their fortunes as they | :14:56. | :15:03. | |
start work at Pendennis Shipyard. Cornwall's out of hours GP service | :15:03. | :15:07. | |
has been told action is needed to speed up the time in which calls | :15:07. | :15:13. | |
are answered and urgent patients get a clinical assessment. In an | :15:13. | :15:15. | |
otherwise good Care Quality Commission report, the SERCO-run | :15:15. | :15:18. | |
service is considered not to be meeting the standard required for | :15:18. | :15:27. | |
staffing levels in its call centre. The number of hate crimes recorded | :15:27. | :15:29. | |
against transgender people in Devon and Cornwall has tripled over the | :15:29. | :15:32. | |
last year. Police say there were nine incidents last year compared | :15:32. | :15:36. | |
to three the year before and just one in 2010. Scott Bingham has more | :15:36. | :15:39. | |
details. Emily Dodds set up a support group for Trans gender | :15:40. | :15:45. | |
people in Cornwall in 2011. She says, having been the victim of | :15:45. | :15:51. | |
abuse, she understands how difficult it can be. I was out, and | :15:51. | :15:56. | |
I was assured to that and called names, and why was I acting in a | :15:57. | :16:02. | |
particular way, when I was supposed to be a woman. Police say he trains | :16:02. | :16:07. | |
come in many forms including criminal damage, verbal and social | :16:07. | :16:15. | |
media abuse. The making too strong four in 2011, to 13, last year. | :16:15. | :16:19. | |
Three people were charged and three people were sentence between 2010- | :16:19. | :16:29. | |
2012. Devon and Cornwall police are starting to take the strain against | :16:29. | :16:34. | |
crass gender people seriously. are in dialogue with the police at | :16:34. | :16:39. | |
the general level and the independent advisory group level. | :16:39. | :16:43. | |
We're trying to get involved in their training. We understand we | :16:43. | :16:49. | |
are going to roll out to all the officers, more diversity training. | :16:49. | :16:53. | |
A police spokesman said they take all incidents very seriously and | :16:54. | :16:57. | |
are becoming more professional at dealing with these sorts of crimes. | :16:57. | :17:02. | |
Emily says that the hope is that one day, Trans gender people will | :17:02. | :17:07. | |
be treated the same as other minority groups. We have come out | :17:07. | :17:17. | |
of the cupboard, and we're not prepared to stay quite any more! -- | :17:17. | :17:24. | |
quiet. A 14 year-old from Devon is hoping to follow in the footsteps | :17:24. | :17:27. | |
of Olympic pentathlete Heather Fell. Teenager Kerenza Bryson from | :17:27. | :17:29. | |
Plymouth won three national titles last year, and has just been | :17:29. | :17:32. | |
accepted on the World Class Talent Programme. Spotlight's Janine | :17:32. | :17:40. | |
Jansen has been to meet her. Remember this name. Kerenza Bryson. | :17:40. | :17:44. | |
She was inspired by the Olympic silver medallist from Tavistock, | :17:44. | :17:54. | |
:17:54. | :17:57. | ||
Heather fell. -- Fell. She did a talk at the Dartmoor triathlon. And | :17:57. | :18:02. | |
it really inspired me. She recently won a scholarship to Plymouth | :18:02. | :18:10. | |
College. Her coach has high hopes. She has won the national triathlon | :18:10. | :18:15. | |
and heptathlon and pentathlon for the age group. And we think that is | :18:15. | :18:19. | |
the first time anybody has won all three in might the same year. | :18:19. | :18:25. | |
has been put on the world-class talent programme. They phoned me up | :18:25. | :18:30. | |
yesterday and said that I had got a letter, that I had not caught on, | :18:30. | :18:35. | |
but she was just joking. So why was very happy. Running, riding, | :18:35. | :18:41. | |
shooting, swimming and fencing. Why did she choose such it demanding | :18:41. | :18:46. | |
sport? I have never been very strong in separate events. I really | :18:46. | :18:50. | |
enjoyed how there are five different sports, and you have to | :18:50. | :18:56. | |
work very hard to keep all of them up. Something that is going to keep | :18:56. | :19:03. | |
the interest it. With up to 25 hours' training a week, there is no | :19:03. | :19:07. | |
time for Oldham, and her next game, the European Championships, of | :19:07. | :19:17. | |
:19:17. | :19:18. | ||
course. -- for boredom. Apprenticeships for young people in | :19:18. | :19:22. | |
the south west have undergone a renaissance in recent years. At | :19:22. | :19:24. | |
Pendennis shipyard in Falmouth they've been running a scheme for | :19:25. | :19:28. | |
15 years, and now a third of the workforce are former apprentices. | :19:28. | :19:31. | |
In a series of reports on Spotlight we'll be following four of the | :19:31. | :19:33. | |
youngsters from their first day to their eventual graduation. Greg | :19:33. | :19:43. | |

struggled to find my way yeah. After that it has been brilliant. | :20:05. | :20:09. | |
All the guys are a good laugh, and have been trying to play tricks on | :20:09. | :20:14. | |
us. It is amazing to get given his first chance yet -- let alone to | :20:14. | :20:24. | |
:20:24. | :20:26. | ||
come into the whole apprenticeship. It is amazing. In the end, I'm | :20:26. | :20:31. | |
getting paid for it. I feel as if I have become more successful than | :20:31. | :20:34. | |
the apprenticeship then I would have done going to university. It | :20:34. | :20:39. | |
is quite exciting, really. I am doing what I want to do for the | :20:39. | :20:45. | |
next four years at least and hopefully, longer. It is a | :20:45. | :20:50. | |
culmination of all their efforts at school. Many of them have been | :20:50. | :20:55. | |
dreaming and thinking about this day for tour three years, so to be | :20:55. | :21:00. | |
sitting here today ahead of the other one had ridden 40 applicants, | :21:01. | :21:05. | |
I am sure they are building on top of the world. I find it really | :21:05. | :21:11. | |
exciting. It is a little bit like Big Brother. Taking on these 10-15 | :21:11. | :21:16. | |
young people, lock them in a room for four years, and see what comes | :21:16. | :21:26. | |
:21:26. | :21:28. | ||
out at the end -, so it is very Basic cover the skills, welding and | :21:28. | :21:38. | |
:21:38. | :21:40. | ||
fabrication, Level 2 Engineering. - The teacher is like one of us, | :21:40. | :21:46. | |
really, so it is a good laugh. There has been a decline in | :21:46. | :21:50. | |
engineering apprenticeship programmes so we are building up | :21:50. | :21:55. | |
that skill shortage and bringing in that young people is going to solve | :21:55. | :22:00. | |
that skills gap and hopefully increase manufacturing in Cornwall. | :22:00. | :22:09. | |
It is good to learn the skills. When I joined I was only 15. I got | :22:09. | :22:15. | |
into the apprenticeships by about one week. We look very carefully at | :22:16. | :22:19. | |
them for the first six months. And if we spot any problems developing, | :22:19. | :22:24. | |
we might lose be no lack in that time. It might be someone who, we | :22:24. | :22:30. | |
do not conform to what they want, or the other way around. It will be | :22:30. | :22:37. | |
interesting to see how they get on and we will continue to follow the | :22:37. | :22:41. | |
apprentices and find out how they got on in the first six months in | :22:41. | :22:47. | |
the job. Time now for the weather forecast. You will not have to hold | :22:47. | :22:51. | |
onto your hat quite as much as in the last couple of days. Winds are | :22:51. | :22:58. | |
dropping. It is a slow, gradual process. The wind is becoming quite | :22:58. | :23:01. | |
a overnight tonight. Having said that, there are still some showers | :23:01. | :23:07. | |
dotted around. The strength of wind we have seen in the last 24 hours | :23:07. | :23:13. | |
has been impressive, with 71 mph gusts of wind in Devon. Many | :23:13. | :23:22. | |
coastal locations it seemed the Tonight, quite dry and chilly. That | :23:22. | :23:26. | |
Arctic air is giving us quite a frost. That is already happening | :23:26. | :23:33. | |
now. Some showers dotted around. This line of cloud is the next band | :23:33. | :23:39. | |
of rain heading for us, possibly towards the end of tomorrow. We | :23:39. | :23:43. | |
have a clear sky stretching from Spain through Brittany to the NEC. | :23:43. | :23:51. | |
That will be fine, clear weather tonight. -- to the Irish Sea. | :23:52. | :23:56. | |
Effectively for the rest of us, we have a ridge of high pressure. This | :23:56. | :24:04. | |
system is a moving gradually across asked during the day tomorrow. | :24:04. | :24:08. | |
Parts of Somerset and Dorset could see some sleet and snow. That is | :24:08. | :24:14. | |

ridge of high pressure. And then this weather system will bring more | :24:17. | :24:26. | |
wind and rain across us. Lots of clear sky now, with the exception | :24:26. | :24:31. | |
of that stream of showers. For the rest of us, it is going to become | :24:31. | :24:37. | |
frosty. Temperatures as low as minus and the like, perhaps as low | :24:37. | :24:44. | |
as minus two. Mentors, continuing to drop. -- winds continuing to | :24:44. | :24:50. | |
drop. By the term we get to tomorrow afternoon, this patchy | :24:50. | :24:55. | |
rain will spread across the South West of England. On the leading- | :24:55. | :25:00. | |
edge, perhaps some sleet or West's No with some snow possible over | :25:00. | :25:08. | |
Dartmoor and Exmoor. -- wet snow. Winds later, so despite the rain, | :25:08. | :25:13. | |
feeling a little bit warmer. After playing start in the Isles of | :25:13. | :25:23. | |

Quite a mixture to come over the next five days. On Friday, expect | :25:50. | :25:56. | |
to see a lot of cloud. Some brief glimpses of sunshine. And that week | :25:56. | :26:01. | |
with a system giving us the rest of a few snow flurries in the wind. | :26:01. | :26:06. | |
Saturday, dry and bright with some sunshine. All change again on | :26:06. | :26:12. | |
