This week’s Port of Dartmouth Royal Regatta special gives extensive coverage to what was largely a much-enjoyed and popular week of fun and sport on and off the water.

However, three teenagers were stabbed on the final evening, casting a cloud over what should have been a night of celebration, and there were complaints from some visitors over the cost of using the park and ride; the cancellation of Friday’s RAF Typhoon display; and the "missing" guard ship, which the committee has answered.

We also cover the on-going consultation over the proposed merger between South Hams District Council and West Devon Borough Council; plus concerns have been voiced about manhole covers proving a danger to cyclists on Blackpool Hill, between Strete and Stoke Fleming.

As ever, there’s much, much more news inside, included how a police dog helped capture a man suspected of being involved in stealing vehicles from farms.
