Good evening. The family of a teenager, who went missing after

:00:17.:00:19.

leaving a Christmas party eleven days ago, have described his

:00:19.:00:24.

disappearance as a void in their lives. 18-year-old Haydn Evans from

:00:24.:00:28.

Mold was last seen at a hotel in Cheshire on 17 December. Police are

:00:28.:00:32.

urging people in the area to check their outbuildings for any trace of

:00:32.:00:36.

him. So far extensive searches of a wide

:00:36.:00:40.

area have failed to find the key to Haydn Evans' disappearance. The 18-

:00:40.:00:44.

year-old had been at his work's Christmas party at a hotel on the

:00:44.:00:49.

outskirts of Chester. He was last seen at the front door at around

:00:49.:00:51.

1.00am on December 17. Police helicopters, search and rescue

:00:51.:00:54.

groups, dogs and divers have been involved in the hunt as every

:00:54.:00:58.

possible explanation is explored for his failure to return home. His

:00:58.:01:01.

family have released a statement saying that words can't describe

:01:01.:01:04.

the despair they feel. Haydn's Christmas presents remain unopened

:01:04.:01:07.

and none of the family can even consider celebrating while he's

:01:07.:01:12.

still missing. They say they have a huge void in their lives. Cheshire

:01:12.:01:14.

Police are again reminding people living in the Broxton area,

:01:14.:01:17.

particularly farmers, to check their land and buildings where the

:01:17.:01:21.

teenager may have tried to shelter from the winter weather. It was a

:01:21.:01:31.

particularly cold night and Haydn wasn't wearing a jacket or coat.

:01:31.:01:37.

The bodies of two people have been found in a house in South Wales.

:01:37.:01:43.

They were discovered in -- near Aberdare. South as police have

:01:43.:01:47.

described the deaths as unexplained. Two people arrested after the

:01:47.:01:49.

murder of retired Welsh farmer Llywelyn Thomas have been released

:01:49.:01:52.

on bail until 15 February. Mr Thomas was found dead after a

:01:52.:01:55.

burglary at his home in Cambridgeshire, where he'd moved to

:01:55.:01:58.

be near his son. Next year marks the tenth

:01:58.:02:00.

anniversary of a historically remarkable discovery on the banks

:02:01.:02:05.

of the River Usk in Newport. A medieval ship, older than the Mary

:02:05.:02:10.

Rose, was uncovered during work to build the Riverfront Theatre. It

:02:10.:02:14.

prompted a campaign to ensure it was preserved. A decade on, Nicola

:02:14.:02:17.

Smith has been finding out how work to rebuild the Newport Ship and

beneath the nerd, what is now known to be the world's best-preserved

:02:35.:02:38.

example of a fifteenth-century shape emerged to the surprise of

:02:38.:02:45.

people in Newport. Hundreds queued to see the vessel. Today, the

:02:45.:02:54.

building stands on the banks of the River Usk. It was amazing. It was

:02:54.:03:04.
:03:04.:03:08.

palpable. People would queue for two or three hours just to see it.

:03:08.:03:13.

People would take all about the block. They what did come down and

:03:13.:03:21.

support us. But the future was far from certain. Campaigners held a

:03:21.:03:26.

round-the-clock vigil. The news that it would be permanently

:03:26.:03:30.

preserved was welcomed. This industrial unit is the home of the

:03:30.:03:36.

ship. Every timber is stored in these tanks. From fashionable

:03:36.:03:43.

medieval shoes to coyness, there are thousands of perfectly

:03:43.:03:51.

preserved artefact here. After a decade of work, then many boxes

People had will painstakingly cleaned it up. It is a very rare

you a perspective, if I was up to stand next to the real shape, they

would be this size. That is the ultimate goal, to rebuild the ship

in its own museum. We were to find a suitable site and rebuild its in

:04:46.:04:48.

the same order that they built the original ship. We could learn much.
