No problems I transport b.b.c. Travel. Dates 345957 double 057 v.d.c. Sussex b.b.c. Sussex driver 5 with cerebral Good afternoon drive time through until 7 o'clock this evening in this hour as demolition takes place at a devastating building supplies warehouse in Port Slade we asked whether the building could have been saved if sprinklers had been installed remembering a Brighton hero service is held to mark 100 years since the death in battle of a local soldier who was posthumously awarded the Victoria Cross and we bring you the latest on the Russian spy scandal as it's confirmed the death of a Russian businessman in London earlier this week is now being treated as murder 3 weeks following a wriggle room. With a time now coming up to 8 minutes past 5 o'clock you're listening to b.b.c. Sussex Dr Thomas serger all rounding up all the day's top stories for Sussex now could sprinklers have saved buildings destroyed by fire yesterday fire crews are still at the scene of yesterday's major fire on an industrial estate in Port slate smoke from the blaze at Chandler building supplies in Basin road was seen from several miles away and people living nearby is still being advised to keep doors and windows shot today demolition work has got underway in around a quarter of the devastated building has been taken down the duty manager of East Sussex Fire and Rescue Nigel KUSA access investigations into how the fire started a continuing we haven't got identified cause its investigation will likely go on for the next 24 to 48 hours while he gets actually assured of that we're completely extinguished the story. Well earlier I spoke to Assistant Chief Fire Officer Mark Andres fire is completely under control we're starting to pull away some of our fire resources but you local people are saying there is still some smoke so we are doing what we call dumping down so final bits of tidying up of the incident and starting to go into the next phase which of course is 5 best occasion and working with our police colleagues to understand exactly what caused the fire and what lessons we can learn and share with you what is a sion as to what started a more measures can be taking teacher to prevent such a recurrence so I understand the other 12 hours but instead it's fully under control now a lot still has been on some one issue that's been Macy's that is the issue of sprinklers and whether that could have made a difference to this building. Yes there were no sprinklers we understand no sleepers in the building it's clear to the pharmacy service that sprinklers make a huge difference in these situations they certainly act to raise the alarm they certainly act to minimize and control the initial stages of the fire and therefore prevent the spread which ensures that the Fire Rescue Service bottom again reduces the impact on the clockwise and selves and clearly means that we can prevent the damage to the building and there are hundreds of examples of where sprinklers have been stored they do all of that and the business can reopen if not the next day in the next few days and be back up and running doing what they do best as a business and that obviously protect lives and protect livelihoods and protect communities so it's a very strong message for us and we do sales Brinkley's make a difference I'm not suggesting it would have made a difference in this situation specifically because we don't know the details but more broadly sprinklers are something that businesses should strongly consider very soggy in this case a lot of damage has been done hasn't it that that's right so you could spring has made a difference well that's the question and that's why our farmers question we'll try and uncover. The business you know I thought I was a business because clearly a lot of livelihoods have been affected we hope that I can get back on the faith as quickly as possible but you have seen from social media attracts a lot of tension locally so there is an impact on the community and certainly for the people the good people that work at that business in the business themselves it's going to be a very difficult very difficult road ahead for them and in terms of the surroundings I know yesterday people were advised to keep the windows shot what's the situation with that now. People do you smile or are affected by the last remnants of the smoke from the saying that he said possible to keep innocent or shocked but the situation is well in the control the next few hours should see the last of those embers in that smoke. Start to complete dissipate but in the meantime if you if you are active and just general advice is to stay indoors and keep those men as close as I said. Well let's turn to sport now and Brighton and Hove Albion looked to reach the semi finals of the f.a. Cup for only the 2nd time in their history tomorrow evening the seagulls travel to Old Trafford to face Manchester United and seagulls manager Chris Hughton says you can't read too much into the Champions League defeat to Seville or on cheese day I did see their last game. You know the game before that very very good and Bates that same in in a live a poor that applying as well as anybody in the country at the moment and and that's what can happen when you're playing games that at the top level you played against top teams and and it can happen you know what we all know about much as annoyed as they have huge quality they are they are 2nd in this division and I'm probably only 2nd because Manchester City haven't an outstanding season so that's the magnitude of what they are in and around that they're going to have days are not such good days for him and. Most of our focus has to be on making sure that we play well enough what are say as a team win a lot of games and the same that this moment of our 2nd in the division and already because as I say I. Haven't you know a wonderful wonderful season and I see a manager that she used to winning trophies and that's the quality of call and and that's the only thing that we can concentrate on with respect a hugely difficult game against them some big and very very good players because she won the f.a. Cup as a player where does this game rank for you in terms of your management career. It's right up there you know the 2 the only thing that would be more favorable would be . A core for no tie against Manchester United at the Amex you know which certainly is one that would be certainly more favorable for us but so now it's right up there you know there isn't one player that won't want to play there is one supporter we spoke about and the long journey but everybody that's decided to make that journey that there won't be one support the that won't be looking forward to the guy so yes it's right up there these are the moments that you that's you work as hard as what you do for and what it's been a good a tough season you know so far in other likes the likes of our selfs generally don't get in a court finals and and semifinals and you have to give it all you've got Does it help in a way that you know that it takes time and houses at this stage that came in last season it's a one off and the healthy. I don't know I suppose it would be incredibly good to be in in that position and we would have to apply very value very well for that but I suppose in the past you know what has been the case is that you know if you're if you're an extra charge and that. Whatever the last 510 minutes of extra charm and you know there's a possibility you could take him back to to a hug I'm then sometimes maybe the approach is a little bit different certainly approach from from hunting so it will be different so so whether they're I think in the in the heyday of when it happens I don't think they'll be any change in the what happens but I suppose there are things that could happen well we've got full coverage from Old Trafford tomorrow afternoon b.b.c. Sussex sport starts at 5 o'clock listening to b.b.c.
