A twenty-one year old female has been jailed for 2 years after an attack involving a stiletto
on a young mother leaving the mother scarred for life. Jessica Lamming downed 6 alco-pops
before attacking Charlotte Pilkings outside the OFS club on George Street in the early hours
of May 8th this year. Lamming, who was training to be a nurse, became tearful in court and
the judge was quoted as “being regretful of ruining her career prospects”. Despite the drink
Lamming was understood to be sober when she unleashed the attack which left Miss Pilkings
requiring 25 external stitches and 24 internal stitches in a deep facial wound.

James Vivian: Christmas thieves have broken into six houses in Banbury over the last week,
stealing Itunes and HMV vouchers, Bratz children toys and mugs and a digital Television.
Police have warned the public not to leave presents on display.

Jacob Briggs: On a lighter note James went to the home of an elderly resident in Didcot
earlier this week.

James Vivian: It was really quite something. We first met Dorothy as she was sick of getting
the same card every year.

news

(Brief Jingle)

Adam Webster: Thanks Jacob. Afternoon listeners.

Oxford have signed Barnsley striker Onome Sodje on loan. The U’s will play premier league
highfliers Sunderland in the FA Cup if they beat fellow non-leaguers Barrow in the away
replay following yesterdays one all draw.

Oxford University saw their final fixture before the Nomura Varsity Match cancelled due to a
waterlogged pitch. And Oxford Caribbean have beaten wolverton in the cheerwell cricket
leave to secure the trophy.

In premier league Portsmouth manager Paul Heart have been fired and is expected to be
replaced by former Chelsea boss Avram Grant who in October was instated by pomleys
director of football.

Wigan have agreed to refund all fans after their 9-1 home hammering at the hands of Spurs
at the weekend. In which Jermaine Defoe grabbed the headlines by scoring five goals, but it
was the performance of right-winger Aaron Lennon that really stood out to the game and
more to the Tottenham side as a unit.

In rugby union Jonny Wilkinson will win his first cap for 18 months while Steve Thompson
also returns to the England side to face Australia. He said he “hopes to add some experience
to a young England side”.

Jacob Briggs: I heard Tiger Woods might be returning to golf pretty soon after his recent
affair scandal settled in the dust and he finished his time in a sex addict clinic, what do you
think about that then?

Adam Webster: It’s a definite for me, after all that publicity you’d think Tiger Woods would
want to keep it quiet for a while until he gains a bit more of a respected status, however it’s
been reported that his manager has said “expect to see tiger in early 2010”. Maybe golf is
about to be resurrected to reclaim the title of the UK’s favourite sport.
Jake Briggs: Well I’m not so sure about that but I’d genuinely have to agree about his
comeback. We asked the people of Oxford what they thought about the whole Tiger Woods
scandal. Let’s hear what they said.

(Vox Pop) Yes/ no.
