Broadway man behind 'chaotic' lorry protest

Hear from the man who wedged himself on to a lorry and who says he has 'no regrets' on his actions or their consequences, which involved paramedics and firefighters needing to pull him out.

Our reporter Tom Edwards has met Worcestershire pensioner David Owen, who spent three days protesting the installation of 22 internet poles that are going up outside people's homes in Broadway.

David was arrested, when he was in the back of an ambulance, on suspicion of a public order offence. West Mercia Police say he hasn't been charged with anything.

Full Fibre, the firm doing the work, say they've "worked hard to respond to all the concerns from residents", and are working to "future-proof the UK's town and villages" with better internet connections.
