00:03 Hello, good evening, and welcome to Ken Tonight live here on KMTV.
00:29 I'm Gabriel Morris, and here are your top stories on Thursday,
00:33 the 5th of October.
00:35 Paris out.
00:37 Ginning MFC sacked manager after not winning for three
00:40 straight games in League Two.
00:42 He came into the dressing room and spoke to us,
00:44 and told them that obviously he got sacked.
00:46 And it is what it is, and we were all a bit shocked,
00:51 obviously, but this is football, so.
00:53 Daily disruption.
00:55 Leeds woman says village roadworks are adding hours
00:58 on to her daily commute.
01:00 I work in the town centre, and it's
01:02 taken me an hour to get to work every day,
01:04 rather than 20 minutes.
01:06 I'll believe it when I see it.
01:08 Lib Dem councillor doubtful of the prime minister's promise
01:11 to invest in Kent roads.
01:14 Local people won't believe the word the prime minister says
01:17 about roads or anything else.
01:19 On Brindy Corner, we've been waiting years.
01:21 [MUSIC PLAYING]

01:27 [MUSIC PLAYING]
01:31 But first tonight, Neil Harris has
01:33 been sacked as manager of Ginnigan Football Club.
01:36 The former Millwall striker joined the club
01:38 in January last year.
01:40 He was unable to keep the Gilles from escaping relegation
01:42 from League One in that season.
01:45 Harris's departure comes as the Medway side
01:47 haven't been able to get a win in three games.
01:50 Well, our reporter Bartholomew Hall joins us live now
01:53 from Priestfield Stadium, where a press conference was
01:56 held this afternoon.
01:58 Bartholomew, not a press conference
01:59 where we were expecting this morning.
02:03 No, you're absolutely right, Gabriel.
02:04 Here at Priestfield Stadium, that press conference
02:07 ended just over 2 and 1/2 hours ago.
02:09 Keith Millen came and sat in the position
02:11 that we usually see Neil Harris sit
02:13 on these usual Thursday afternoon press conferences,
02:16 following the news that the former Millwall striker had
02:19 been sacked from the club.
02:20 Millen, up until today, was part of the coaching team here.
02:23 He was heading up the club's B team squad.
02:27 We heard from the club just around about lunchtime
02:30 that Harris had departed.
02:32 They said in a statement that the club now
02:34 wishes to go ahead in a different direction
02:36 and will begin the process of identifying a head coach
02:39 to take the team forward.
02:40 Now, this has come as quite of a shock to some fans
02:43 and as well to the media.
02:44 We were fully expecting this morning for Neil Harris
02:47 to be there at the press conference.
02:49 Now, after this statement was released,
02:52 obviously, plans did start to change.
02:54 But let's hear from Keith in that press conference today.
02:58 The timing of it was a shock.
03:00 I think it was the timing.
03:02 But I've seen it before and it happened again.
03:06 It doesn't always reflect on the results,
03:09 whether you're winning or losing.
03:11 There's always a reason, isn't there?
03:13 Well, there should be a reason for it to happen.
03:15 So it's a case, really, of me picking up the pieces of where
03:21 the players are.
03:22 I'm not going to be trying to motivate the players by saying,
03:25 let's do this for Neil.
03:26 I just don't think that's the right--
03:28 I wouldn't want that as a player, as a motivation.
03:31 So it's an awareness of what's happened.
03:36 And if it gives us a little bit more of an edge come Saturday,
03:40 then that's a good thing.
03:41 And I'm sure Neil would want that.
03:43 100%, he would want the players to go out and perform
03:45 and try and win the game.
03:47 Now, as to why this has happened,
03:49 well, we don't really have too much information at this point,
03:53 other than what the club has released.
03:55 But if we look at the recent form,
03:57 you might start to raise some questions.
03:59 Gillingham haven't been able to win any of their previous three
04:02 games.
04:02 They currently sit eighth in the League Two table.
04:05 But really, if we think about the form
04:07 across the whole season, that's not really reflective.
04:09 Gillingham have been quite successful in League Two
04:12 so far this season, compared to where
04:13 they were at the end of last season, all the way down
04:15 in 17th.
04:17 And actually, eighth in the table,
04:19 they're only four points away from being back up at the top,
04:22 where we've already seen them this year.
04:23 Now, this huge shift for the club
04:25 comes after Brad Gallinson took over in January of this year.
04:29 We heard from the American businessman earlier today
04:32 on Twitter, or X as it is called now.
04:35 He tweeted to say thank you to Neil,
04:37 and described him as one of the highest quality individuals
04:41 that he's ever met.
04:43 No word as of yet on who will replace him.
04:45 And of course, we'll have all the updates here on Kent
04:47 tonight.
04:48 But the most important thing for this club
04:50 is going into this weekend.
04:51 They're going to be up against MK Dons, of course,
04:53 recently relegated from League One.
04:55 So potentially an opportunity to claw back a win.
04:59 But it all depends on how these players are doing.
05:01 Now, we heard from Connor Masterson in the press
05:03 conference also today, who explained
05:04 just how the conversation went down with the players.
05:08 Yeah, we came in this morning, half 10,
05:11 expecting to meet about the games of the night,
05:13 like we usually do.
05:13 And yeah, the gaffer just told us
05:16 that he would be part ways with the club.
05:19 So Neil was here this morning.
05:21 So he spoke to you this morning?
05:23 Yeah, he did.
05:24 He came into the dressing room and spoke to us,
05:26 and told them that obviously he got sacked.
05:28 And it is what it is.
05:31 And we were all a bit shocked, obviously.
05:33 But this is football, so.
05:36 Next tonight, a family from Whitstable
05:38 has been left heartbroken as a much loved football
05:40 coach has died.
05:42 Matt Milne is believed to have suffered a deep vein blood
05:45 clot in his leg.
05:46 The software programmer who was on a plane flying home,
05:50 and despite efforts of off-duty paramedics,
05:52 he couldn't be revived.
05:54 Matt was the under-14s team coach for the town's football
05:57 club, where he also ran the bar.
06:00 And he was hugely popular with some of the younger players
06:03 there.
06:03 His family said his death came as a shock.
06:05 As they say, the 43-year-old never
06:07 had any health conditions.
06:11 A fire that broke out earlier this week
06:13 at a former school in Chatham is believed
06:14 to have been started deliberately.
06:16 Fire engines were sent to Ordnance Street
06:19 at about 6 PM this Tuesday, as two of the building's top
06:22 floors were on fire.
06:24 About 40 firefighters tackled the large incident
06:27 at the former St. John's Fisher Catholic Church--
06:30 school, sorry.
06:31 The fire was put out by 8.30 PM that evening,
06:34 and no injuries were reported.
06:36 Police have confirmed inquiries are
06:38 ongoing to establish the circumstances surrounding
06:41 the incident.
06:43 Next tonight, one resident in a Maystone village
06:46 has said roadworks taking place outside her house
06:49 have caused her daily commute time
06:51 to increase by more than double.
06:53 Repairs on a 535-metre section of a water main
06:57 running through Leeds has shut one of the main routes running
07:01 through the village.
07:02 South East Water, who are carrying out the work,
07:04 say they're due to finish next month, as Jamie Levy reports.
07:09 [SOUND OF WATER POURING]
07:11 A £1 million investment for improved drinking water,
07:15 but at what price?
07:16 The roadworks being carried out by South East Water
07:19 to replace a 535-metre section of water main
07:22 have now been going on for the past few months,
07:25 and they're taking place on Victoria's doorstep.
07:28 It's adding about half an hour, 45 minutes to any journey
07:31 that we want to take, because we have
07:32 to go a super long way around.
07:34 I work in the team, and I'm the one
07:36 who has to go a super long way around.
07:38 I work in the town centre, and it's
07:40 taking me an hour to get to work every day,
07:42 rather than 20 minutes.
07:44 Deliveries have stopped.
07:45 Our bins have stopped occasionally.
07:46 I mean, you can see the rubbish.
07:48 They've not been collected, because they can't.
07:51 So none of us are angry about it,
07:53 but they've just stopped loads of things.
07:55 Now, just behind me here is where the roadworks begin.
07:57 And actually, on the way up here,
07:59 there's about 10 to 15 signs warning motorists
08:01 that these works are here, and to turn around to try
08:03 and take a different route.
08:05 South Eastern Water is saying that these works
08:07 are crucial to improving the water supply of those
08:09 who live here in Leeds.
08:11 But it's coming at the cost of diversion and traffic jams.
08:14 The works are happening along the B2163,
08:17 one of the main routes running along the village of Leeds.
08:20 It's one of a number of road closures happening
08:22 across Kent at the moment.
08:24 Kent County Council say they're working
08:26 to bring this number down.
08:27 The increase in road closures has been very rapid,
08:32 threefold increase in the last four years.
08:36 And it's at the expense of residents,
08:38 and we want to stop that.
08:39 We've created an inspector to make sure they run better,
08:44 that they're not closed when they don't have to be.
08:46 But whilst delays and diversion have frustrated some,
08:49 Victoria says there has been an upside
08:51 to the works taking place.
08:52 Everyone's really lovely.
08:54 It's been super quiet.
08:55 There's been no traffic, which is kind of delightful.
08:58 And dog walks have been really lovely,
09:00 because the dogs aren't afraid of any of the noises
09:02 of the cars that are going by.
09:04 South East have held a number of open meetings with locals
09:06 to establish how best to tackle disruptions to the village.
09:09 They've also announced that these works
09:10 will be concluding sooner than the originally
09:12 planned January 2024.
09:15 They now hope to be finished by early November,
09:17 allowing traffic to once again flow through the village.
09:20 Jamie Levy for KMTV.
09:23 Well, Jamie, there have been a few headlines
09:24 on water companies.
09:25 And today, what more can you tell us?
09:27 Yes, Gary, we have some damning reports today
09:29 for two of Kent's main water companies.
09:31 So this is a report from the Consumer Council
09:33 for Water, the CCW.
09:35 They said that more than 20 million people
09:37 being served by Thameswater and Southern Water
09:39 were being let down.
09:41 And they said that those two companies
09:42 were the worst in the country for complaints.
09:45 In fact, the complaints for Southern Water
09:46 were almost three times more than the national average.
09:50 And for Thameswater, it was 1.5 times more.
09:52 So that's quite a lot of complaints.
09:55 Southern Water is obviously the water and sewage provider
09:57 for many customers in Kent.
09:59 And we've seen a lot of protests about this in the last year.
10:02 We've also spoken to people like SOS Whistlepool
10:04 and other campaign groups who have
10:05 protested about the sewage being discharged into the seas.
10:09 Obviously, Southern Water have come back
10:11 and said that that's due to storm overflows and things
10:13 like that.
10:14 Now, the chief executive of the Watchdog Group,
10:16 the producer report said trust in the water sector
10:19 has never been more fragile.
10:20 And the task of rebuilding is made all the more challenging
10:23 when companies perform as poorly as Thameswater
10:26 and Southern Water.
10:27 He said, customers have a right to expect better
10:30 from such an essential utility provider
10:32 where switching supplier is not an option.
10:34 We have had responses from Southern Water and Thameswater.
10:37 Southern says it's been disappointed by the headline
10:39 today.
10:40 It says it's making multiple improvements.
10:41 And it says it's committing to improving customer service.
10:44 Thameswater says it's working hard
10:45 to turn around its performance and notes
10:47 that complaints are down by 28% since last year.
10:51 And this all comes as we've been finding out this week
10:53 that bills for Southern Water customers
10:55 potentially could be rising.
10:57 Yes, they could.
10:58 Southern Water says there's been significant new investment
11:00 from its stakeholders.
11:01 They say $1.6 billion since 2021 has been invested.
11:06 And it's promising to improve majorly.
11:08 It says it's going to deliver major improvements in water
11:11 resilience, waste water treatment, and customer
11:13 service, as well as enhancements and protection
11:15 of the environment.
11:17 Now, that doesn't come for free, they say.
11:18 They say they're going to have to put customers bills up
11:21 in order to pay for this improvement of infrastructure.
11:25 Now, Gabriel, we estimate that this
11:26 is going to be about £250 extra on bills by 2030.
11:31 So quite a lot there for customers over the county.
11:35 Now, Water UK, who regulate this,
11:37 suppliers say that while increasing bills is never
11:40 welcome, the investment in our country's infrastructure
11:42 is essential to ensure the security of our water supply.
11:45 Water companies are seeking regulatory approval
11:47 to reduce overflow spills.
11:49 Jamie, thank you for those details.
11:50 We'll be back after this short break.

15:06 Hello, and welcome back to Ken Tonight live on CAME TV.
15:15 A circle of chaos, how locals have described
15:18 Fathersham's Brenley Corner roundabout,
15:21 which is often congested with queues stretching miles.
15:24 It's one of the roads given the green light
15:26 to receive a portion of the billions of investment in UK
15:30 roads, according to the Prime Minister.
15:33 But will this investment be enough?
15:35 Sophia Aitken has been finding out.
15:37 This is something we're all familiar with,
15:39 being sat in traffic at a roundabout
15:41 and just waiting for the light to turn green.
15:44 For those living anywhere near Fathersham,
15:46 Brenley Corner has become infamous for this.
15:50 This was just usual lunch hour traffic, but in rush hour,
15:53 these queues can stretch for miles.
15:56 Rishi Sunak's pledged to invest billions
15:58 into roads across the country, including here in Kent.
16:02 The M2 and A2 were both mentioned,
16:04 and right in the centre lies the Brenley Corner roundabout.
16:08 But one local councillor is sceptical of the promise.
16:11 Local people won't believe the word the Prime Minister says
16:14 about roads or anything else.
16:16 On Brenley Corner, we've been waiting years
16:19 for some major improvement to that roundabout.
16:21 So it's hugely busy with local traffic, people going to work,
16:25 the shops, the schools, and also lorries heading
16:28 towards the Channel ports.
16:30 It's just too small a roundabout for the volume of traffic.
16:33 And I think he'll say anything he wants to, to save his skin.
16:37 But residents on Fathersham High Street
16:39 were hoping for other matters to be mentioned
16:41 in the Prime Minister's speech.
16:43 It will be the NHS, I think, that needs a lot of money.
16:47 And nurses and doctors getting paid like they should.
16:49 I would do the potholes.
16:50 And he did say they're going to spend money on that,
16:53 but not here, it'll be up in the north.
16:56 The doctors around here aren't coping as well.
17:00 Yeah, the roads could do with some help,
17:03 but it's not priority.
17:04 It's not.
17:05 It's not.
17:07 I mean, I've been waiting for procedures and things
17:11 to happen for like eight months.
17:13 Yeah, same, and nothing's happening.
17:15 Nothing's happening.
17:16 And I think the NHS really does need extra support.
17:20 And of course, these roads also go through Medway.
17:23 The leader of the opposition at Medway Council
17:25 was disappointed not to hear the Lower Thames Crossing
17:28 mentioned, but overall hopeful after the speech.
17:32 I hope that means that the Lower Thames Crossing will
17:36 go ahead, because a lot of us residents
17:39 have to cross the Dartford Crossing to get to work.
17:42 The present crossing, everybody accepts,
17:44 is a complete nightmare.
17:45 And the other one I've heard that may be in the pipeline
17:48 is Brindley Corner, which is an absolute nightmare,
17:51 because that's one I use regularly when my wife and I
17:54 go down to visit Canterbury.
17:56 Any investment in Kent's roads will be, I think,
17:59 very, very welcome indeed.
18:01 The questions being asked now is,
18:02 is the prime minister actually going to stick to his promise
18:05 and deliver these improvements to Kent's roads?
18:07 Well, if he does, we should hopefully
18:09 start to see problems easing soon,
18:11 and things start to move a bit smoother for Kent's motorists.
18:14 Sophia Aitken for KMTV in Fathersham.
18:18 That was just one of the many announcements made in Rishi
18:20 Sunak's speech yesterday, and we've
18:22 been asking people across Kent their views
18:25 on Rishi Sunak's speech.
18:27 One of the other announcements made by the prime minister
18:30 was a gradual ban on smoking.
18:32 The new laws would mean a 14-year-old today
18:35 can never legally be sold a cigarette.
18:38 Well, we've been asking people's opinions on the social media
18:41 platform X. Most people agreed to the gradual ban
18:44 at 44% of the vote, but 31% said no to a ban,
18:49 and 25% of voters said the ban should be immediate.
18:53 Well, don't forget to follow and like us
18:55 on your social timelines so you can stay up to date with all
18:58 that's going on in Kent and take part in other polls,
19:01 such as that one.
19:03 And you can also find us online by logging on to our website,
19:06 kmtv.co.uk.
19:08 There, you can watch this very programme alongside all
19:11 our others whenever you like.
19:13 You can also find all of our news reports,
19:15 including this one.
19:16 It's about how the freedom of the county
19:18 has been awarded to the HMS Kent Marine Crew.
19:22 For the first time, the freedom of the county
19:24 has been awarded by the Kent County Council,
19:28 given to HMS Kent.
19:30 To commemorate this historic landmark,
19:33 a military march was held through the Straits
19:35 of Maidstone with drums, fixed bayonets, and flying colours.
19:41 The award was given for the outstanding service
19:43 of the Royal Navy Brigade, the first time
19:46 this achievement has been given to a UK armed service group.
19:50 The freedom is largely a symbolic award in the sense
19:55 that it recognises and acknowledges the contribution
20:01 that HMS Kent and the ship's company
20:04 have paid to Kent over many, many years,
20:07 through visits to the county themselves,
20:10 through interacting with schools and the people of Kent
20:15 more generally, and indeed with people in Kent County Council.
20:19 The Type 23 Duke-class frigate became the first ship
20:24 to serve in the 21st century Royal Navy back in June of 2000.
20:30 Since its commission, the vessel has
20:32 seen sights from all over the globe,
20:35 from the Persian Gulf to the Horn of Africa,
20:38 succeeding in many illegal cargo, anti-piracy,
20:43 and anti-drug missions.
20:45 My family are incredibly proud, both of what I do
20:49 and of the ship.
20:51 Unfortunately, they live in Swansea,
20:53 and so it's a little bit far to come.
20:55 Unlike the army, which tend to be based in a county
20:57 and move there, the Navy's got three main naval bases
21:02 in Portsmouth, Plymouth, and Faslane,
21:03 and we recruit from all around the country.
21:06 So yes, we have ships company from Kent,
21:08 but we also have ships company from Scotland to Devon,
21:13 from all over the Commonwealth, from New Zealand, Australia,
21:16 the Caribbean, and Africa.
21:18 So a very diverse ships company, and incredibly proud of all
21:21 of them today, as we've had the freedom of the county.
21:25 Today's ceremony has no doubt brought attention
21:28 to the work of the crew themselves.
21:30 Yes, definitely.
21:31 I think any type of public event where
21:35 we get to dress up in uniform and everyone
21:37 can see we're just like every other man and woman
21:40 in the country.
21:41 We've just got a different job, and I definitely
21:43 know people have already come up to me and asked, what do I do?
21:46 And what do I bring to the Royal Navy as well?
21:51 So it's good for the exposure for the Royal Navy,
21:53 and it's been good for us to be able to talk about what
21:56 we're proud of as well.
21:57 With many of their friends and family coming to celebrate,
22:01 the crew of HMS Kent will certainly
22:03 carry the memory of today for the rest of their lives.
22:07 Henry Luck for CAME TV in Maidstone.
22:12 Well, just before we take a look at the weather for Kent,
22:14 let's take a look at this award-winning photo
22:17 from a Herne Bay schoolboy.
22:19 17-year-old Jamie McVean took this image of the seafront
22:24 near his home.
22:25 The picture of the thunderous clouds above Herne Bay
22:28 won him the coveted Royal Meteorological Society's
22:31 Young Photographer of the Year.
22:33 There he is pictured on the screen.
22:35 He also won £750 for that photo.
22:39 Sure that will go a long way for a 17-year-old probably
22:41 driving lessons.
22:42 Time for a quick look at the weather.
22:44 [MUSIC PLAYING]
22:47 Well, going into this evening, it's going to be clear skies.
22:52 Lows of 13 and highs of 15 down in Dover.
22:56 Tomorrow, it's warming up to highs of 18 again down in Dover.
22:59 Clear skies and sun across most of the county.
23:02 This is what the afternoon looks like.
23:04 Highs of 22 up in Dartford.
23:05 Lows of 19 as time down in Dover.
23:08 And going into the weekend, it's going to be unseasonably warm.
23:10 Highs of 26 in Chatham on Saturday.
23:13 [MUSIC PLAYING]
23:19 Now, straight after Kentonite is another episode
23:27 at the Kent Film Club, where guests reflect
23:29 on the films that have meant the most to them over the years.
23:32 But today is also James Bond Day.
23:34 And of course, there are big links to Kent.
23:36 The author of the original James Bond book, Ian Fleming,
23:39 has a soft spot for the county.
23:41 He even lived here himself.
23:42 Well, Chris Deasy, the presenter of Kent Film Club,
23:44 joins me on the sofa now.
23:47 Certainly a lot of links to James Bond in Kent, aren't there?
23:51 Absolutely.
23:51 So Ian Fleming lived at two different houses he had.
23:55 One was near Beaksbourne, just outside Canterbury.
23:58 And he also lived near Dover, at St. Margaret's Bay.
24:01 And on the seafront in Dover, they've got a statue to him.
24:04 And of course, the 007 bus, apparently,
24:08 when it went from London to Dover,
24:10 was the inspiration for the 007 creation.
24:13 And there we are.
24:14 We've had countless number of films.
24:15 I don't know if you know the exact number.
24:17 I should have researched this before.
24:18 And a number of books as well.
24:19 25, I think.
24:20 There we go.
24:22 He wrote 11.
24:22 And then people have written in the style of Fleming.
24:25 Because he died--
24:26 but he died in 1964.
24:28 He died in Canterbury, actually.
24:29 And so he was sort of 11 through.
24:33 And of course, many more Bond stories
24:35 were yet to come in the style of Ian Fleming.
24:37 And we can see a trailer from Skyfall on the screen now.
24:41 What is your favourite James Bond film of all time?
24:44 I have to confess, it's one of the Roger Moore entries.
24:47 I'm torn between two.
24:48 View to a Kill, 1985, and Moonraker,
24:52 which was made in '79.
24:55 And now, I was just telling you before we came on air,
24:57 I haven't really watched many James Bond movies in the past.
25:02 Shall I start from the start?
25:03 Or is there a good movie for somebody
25:04 who's getting into James Bond for them to start on?
25:07 Well, during lockdown, I went through all the Roger Moore
25:09 films.
25:10 Not for the first time, it must be said.
25:12 Of course, a slightly maybe older generation
25:15 would say Sean Connery is the definitive Bond,
25:17 or George Lazerbee only did the one.
25:19 But I grew up, particularly on bank holiday Mondays,
25:21 it always seemed-- on bank holiday weekends growing up,
25:23 they always seemed to be showing the man with the golden gun,
25:26 Scaramanga, and that great score by Lulu.
25:29 But in more recent years, of course,
25:31 we had Pierce Brosnan at the O2, at the Millennium Dome,
25:33 as it was.
25:34 And of course, Daniel Craig, and who
25:36 knows what the future will have in store.
25:38 And you are a big James Bond fan yourself.
25:40 I think we can bring some pictures up of you on the screen.
25:43 Now, there we go.
25:44 There we go.
25:44 That's you with a satchel down in--
25:46 where was it?
25:46 That was in Dover.
25:47 That was at the seafront.
25:48 Yeah.
25:48 Brilliant.
25:49 And you are potentially a bit of a doppelganger.
25:53 It'll come up in just a second.
25:55 There we go.
25:56 Well--
25:56 Tell us about this.
25:57 Well, that was-- and the viewers at home
25:59 can work out which one is Timothy Dalton
26:01 and which one is me.
26:01 So one of them is an international man of mystery
26:04 who's suave and sophisticated and likes his drinks,
26:06 shaking not stirred.
26:07 And the other one is Timothy Dalton.
26:09 Well, Chris, thank you so much for coming on.
26:12 We've got another episode of the Film Club
26:13 coming straight up after this.
26:14 So it's very quickly, who's coming on?
26:16 So we've got Anne Alwes, who's a classicist
26:17 at the University of Kent.
26:18 Some fantastic films.
26:19 I just mentioned two of them, Footloose and Raiders
26:22 of the Lost Ark.
26:22 So plenty of Indiana Jones in there.
26:24 Well, that's coming up straight after Kentonite.
26:26 In a few minutes' time.
26:27 Well, that is all we've got time for on Kentonite this evening.
26:31 There's more news made for Kent throughout the evening.
26:34 And don't forget, you can always keep us up to date
26:36 with the latest news across your county
26:38 by logging on to kntv.co.uk.
26:41 Well, that's all from me and the Kentonite team.
26:43 Have a very lovely evening.
26:44 We'll see you soon.
26:45 Goodnight.
