An investigation is under way tonight after a group of young

:00:12.:00:14.

people managed to scale a 22-storey building being put up in Plymouth.

:00:15.:00:17.

The Beckley Point tower - which is one and half times

:00:18.:00:20.

the height of Nelson's Column - will contain 500 flats

:00:21.:00:22.

and is due to be filled with students from September.

:00:23.:00:25.

Devon and Cornwall Police were called.

:00:26.:00:30.

Pictures of the operation to free a whale who got caught in fishing

:00:31.:00:33.

gear off Blackpool Sands in South Devon for a second time

:00:34.:00:36.

Alec Collyer has been following events this weekend.

:00:37.:00:43.

The whale, at around 15 tonnes, entangled in pots and ropes,

:00:44.:00:46.

could smash the Dart lifeboat with a flick of its tail.

:00:47.:00:53.

It looked like there might have been a couple of pots still attached

:00:54.:00:56.

from the previous time she was cut free and that had entangled

:00:57.:00:58.

with another string of pots, so it was quite a mess.

:00:59.:01:01.

Luckily we had a boat on scene who were using their

:01:02.:01:05.

So can this be prevented in the future?

:01:06.:01:10.

Chris Rowe from British Divers Marine Life Rescue

:01:11.:01:14.

It's here feeding, doing what it should be doing anyway.

:01:15.:01:19.

It's unfortunate it's in an area where there

:01:20.:01:21.

There's not a lot we can do, really, besides moving all the gear out

:01:22.:01:27.

and that would disrupt the fishermen's livelihood.

:01:28.:01:31.

As dusk fell, the whale swam away, but as so often, when man

:01:32.:01:34.

and animals collide, the animal could come off worst.

:01:35.:01:44.

A woman has had to be rescued after falling 200 feet

:01:45.:01:47.

A French search and rescue helicopter crew winched

:01:48.:01:52.

She's not thought to have sustained serious injuries.

:01:53.:01:59.

Tourism leaders say the industry is in good health, as schools begin

:02:00.:02:01.

People have been out enjoying some blue skies

:02:02.:02:05.

Here at West Bay, near Bridport in Dorset.

:02:06.:02:08.

Some nearly getting caught out by the tide.

:02:09.:02:13.

Businesses are investing, are innovating and are delivering

:02:14.:02:16.

fantastic customer experience and we want to see that encouraged

:02:17.:02:18.

There's anger about changes to business rates.

:02:19.:02:24.

The government says they're being brought in line

:02:25.:02:26.

with the rental market and there is some initial relief,

:02:27.:02:29.

but one hotel near Honiton says its charges will eventually go

:02:30.:02:32.

That's two extra members of staff in real terms, so firstly I wonder

:02:33.:02:39.

The trouble is if you - I understand the Chancellor needs

:02:40.:02:54.

money, but if you try to take too much money out of the business

:02:55.:02:57.

they'll employ less, and that is the problem.

:02:58.:03:01.

They're traditional Dartmoor houses, which were built long so that people

:03:02.:03:05.

and animals could live under one roof.

:03:06.:03:07.

Now, work is under way inside to restore them

:03:08.:03:09.

to their original state hundreds of years ago.

:03:10.:03:11.

Modern floors and walls have been been stripped away.

:03:12.:03:14.

This is exactly as it would have been in the Middle Ages.

:03:15.:03:23.

Now, even more of this building's medieval history is being revealed.

:03:24.:03:29.

Could the original hearth from the 14th century be under

:03:30.:03:34.

They cooked and heated the place with a hearth,

:03:35.:03:41.

somewhere in this room, and what we're trying to do

:03:42.:03:44.

is figure out exactly where that hearth was.

:03:45.:03:47.

Hopefully there are remains of it underneath the more recent floors,

:03:48.:03:51.

Limited public tours are available around Higher Uppacott,

:03:52.:03:56.

giving people the chance to see more about how life on Dartmoor

:03:57.:04:00.

Jersey produced a stunning performance to beat London Irish

:04:01.:04:12.

and book a place in the British and Irish Cup final.

:04:13.:04:14.

The Reds ran out winners by 25-17 and will face Munster

:04:15.:04:18.

Well, with a little help from its owner.

:04:19.:04:28.

In fact, Rachael Grylls and her 8-year-old Jack Russell,

:04:29.:04:30.

Jessica, have now set a new world record - with 59

:04:31.:04:32.

They've been showing us how they did it, at their home

:04:33.:04:38.

It's amazing, really really pleased with Jessica and myself achieving!

:04:39.:04:48.

It's quite hard to keep John King It's quite hard to keep John King

:04:49.:04:52.

and talking and rewarding her at the same time -- to keep jumping. I

:04:53.:04:58.

think I'm more unfit than Jessica! There's a TV show with their name on

:04:59.:05:01.

it somewhere. We mentioned the weather. Time to see what's in store

:05:02.:05:03.

as the schools do break up. Sunday, lots of sunshine. We have

:05:04.:05:13.

some rain to come, as well as some rain to come, as well as

:05:14.:05:17.

sunshine. It should stay dry tonight, mist and fog forming.

:05:18.:05:21.

Perhaps the Channel Islands and Dorset at the greatest risk of

:05:22.:05:24.

seeing that. Chilly into tomorrow morning. Tomorrow, the mist and fog

:05:25.:05:29.

will lift, cloud will start to thicken a bit. The breeze will start

:05:30.:05:33.

to strengthen. That's a hell of outbreaks of rain that are working

:05:34.:05:37.

are, the longer you stay dry and are, the longer you stay dry and

:05:38.:05:42.

bright. Spells of rainfall Monday night but turning drier and brighter

:05:43.:05:45.

after that with high pressure in charge through much of the new week.

:05:46.:05:49.

Have a nice evening. I'm back as part of the BBC's News

:05:50.:05:53.

at Ten come join me if you can. Have a good evening.

:05:54.:06:07.

It was a lovely second part to the weekend for most parts of the UK,

:06:08.:06:13.

lots of sunshine, more cloud to the east but in the last few hours it

:06:14.:06:18.

started to melt away and the process will continue, most places seeing

:06:19.:06:22.

lengthy clear spells overnight and much like last night it will turn a

:06:23.:06:26.

bit chilly. We might see mist and fog, like winds, more of a breeze in

:06:27.:06:33.

the north and west, cloud and patchy rain approaching the Western Isles

:06:34.:06:37.

by the end of the night. Eight or 9 degrees

:06:38.:06:38.
