Former hospital boss Rose Gibb told a judge this week that she was "victimised and demonised" over the C-diff outbreaks. Our reporter Mary Graham was in the High Court to hear her make her bid for a £250,000 pay-off from the Maidstone and Tunbridge Wells NHS Trust, and we have a special two-page feature.

Also this week, Maidstone Prison announced that it is to become a specialist treatment centre for sex offenders, we have the latest on the hunt for the killer of Ditton man Danny King and we feature a moving tribute to Sheila Norrington, from Barming, who lost her battle with cancer after playing a big role in changing government policy on drugs funding.

We also have an appeal from a nine-year-old girl for the KIG road-rail depot plan at Bearsted to be axed,

In Malling we have the shocking story of an opportunist thief who stole a sat nav and a rucksack from an ambulance while paramedics were helping an elderly man who had fallen and cut his head. And in the Weald , Sainsbury's in Headcorn is in trouble after being caught selling alcohol and fireworks to a 15-year-old.

Plus we have great money-saving offers in our Let's Do Lunch feature, a competition to win tickets to see Chicago in London and lots more.
