This is East Midlands Today with Kylie Pentelow and Dominic Heale. | :00:07. | :00:09. | |
Our top story tonight: The convicted killer released from | :00:09. | :00:19. | |
:00:19. | :00:20. | ||
prison who went on to stab two neighbours to death. | :00:20. | :00:25. | |
This is self-styled angel of mercy, Andrew Dawson and these other flats | :00:25. | :00:30. | |
where he will two innocent men. is an evil man. He planned both of | :00:30. | :00:33. | |
these murders and planned to escape from the police. | :00:33. | :00:39. | |
Also, the crashers caused by a blind spot on foreign lorries and | :00:39. | :00:43. | |
the families left to grieve. We know we cannot bring my father | :00:43. | :00:47. | |
back. But what we would like to highlight is the prevention of | :00:47. | :00:51. | |
other families having to go through what we have suffered. | :00:51. | :00:55. | |
These massive turbines will be fully operational and the first | :00:55. | :00:59. | |
commercial wind farm in Leicestershire. | :00:59. | :01:05. | |
Fine out why this question, "do you want salt and vinegar on that". | :01:05. | :01:10. | |
Might be a thing of the past. Good Evening, welcome to Monday's | :01:10. | :01:15. | |
programme. First tonight, the convicted murderer who was released | :01:15. | :01:18. | |
to kill again. Andrew Dawson dubbed himself "the Angel of Mercy" after | :01:18. | :01:24. | |
stabbing two neighbours to death. He'd moved into their block of | :01:24. | :01:27. | |
flats in Derby just weeks before. Probation officials insist Dawson | :01:27. | :01:30. | |
was handled correctly and there was no indication he would commit | :01:30. | :01:35. | |
further murders. Simon Hare was at Nottingham Crown Court earlier | :01:36. | :01:45. | |
:01:46. | :01:46. | ||
today when Dawson was sentenced. Good evening. | :01:46. | :01:49. | |
Andrew Dawson was today told by a judge that he'll serve the rest of | :01:49. | :01:51. | |
his life behind bars. He'd previously been released after | :01:51. | :01:55. | |
serving almost 30 for killing a man. Today he admitted two similar cold- | :01:55. | :02:02. | |
blooded murders. Committed while he was out on licence from prison. | :02:02. | :02:05. | |
This was the moment Andrew Dawson was arrested. He'd been traced to | :02:05. | :02:09. | |
Whitehaven in Cumbria. He jumped into the harbour but was eventually | :02:09. | :02:13. | |
pulled from the sea and a taser had to be used for him to be fully | :02:13. | :02:15. | |
restrained. He'd been named by Derbyshire police as the prime | :02:15. | :02:18. | |
suspect in the murder of his neighbour, 66 year old Dave | :02:18. | :02:21. | |
Matthews. Just hours after Dawson's arrest, police discovered the body | :02:21. | :02:24. | |
of a second man 58 year old, Paul Hancock, who'd been filmed by a | :02:24. | :02:28. | |
shop's security camera on the day he died. Both were found in the | :02:28. | :02:31. | |
bath at their separate flats at Waterford Drive in Chaddesden in | :02:31. | :02:35. | |
Derby last July. They'd been repeatedly stabbed. Andrew Dawson | :02:35. | :02:39. | |
had only moved into the same building just weeks beforehand. | :02:39. | :02:42. | |
Today he went on trial after denying murder, but changed his | :02:42. | :02:51. | |
pleas to guilty after hearing details of the case against him. | :02:51. | :02:56. | |
is a very evil man. He planned both of these murders. And he had | :02:56. | :03:00. | |
planned to escape from the police. He certainly made a lot of attempts | :03:00. | :03:04. | |
to destroy forensic evidence. Dawson's flat police discovered a | :03:04. | :03:06. | |
notebook which bore the impression of a letter he'd written confessing | :03:06. | :03:10. | |
to one of the killings and signed "Yours, the Angel of Mercy". As a | :03:10. | :03:13. | |
teenager, Dawson was given a life sentence in 1982 after admitting | :03:13. | :03:16. | |
the murder of an elderly man in his flat at Ormskirk in Lancashire, | :03:16. | :03:22. | |
where Dawson's originally from. He'd been released on licence from | :03:22. | :03:24. | |
Sudbury Prison in 1999, but was subsequently recalled to Nottingham | :03:24. | :03:34. | |
:03:34. | :03:36. | ||
Prison three times. We always knew he was difficult. But there was | :03:36. | :03:40. | |
nothing in all of the years to indicate the things we heard in | :03:40. | :03:44. | |
court that he was planning to kill again. If When Dawson was arrested | :03:44. | :03:46. | |
he was armed with seven kitchen knives. He told psychiatrists he | :03:46. | :03:50. | |
felt driven to kill both men as he feared he was about to be recalled | :03:50. | :03:53. | |
to jail again for assaulting a previous landlord. | :03:53. | :03:56. | |
A final report into how Dawson was handled is due to be submitted on | :03:56. | :04:00. | |
Wednesday. It's expected to conclude all correct procedures | :04:00. | :04:05. | |
were followed. We heard that he later confessed to wanting to kill | :04:05. | :04:08. | |
someone at Markeaton Park in 2007 after being arrested But for the | :04:08. | :04:11. | |
families of Dave Matthews and Paul Hancock, several questions remain | :04:11. | :04:20. | |
and Dawson's full life sentence has come too late. | :04:20. | :04:22. | |
The Department for Transport today dismissed claims that it could | :04:22. | :04:25. | |
after all reopen a multi-million pound rail contract in favour of | :04:25. | :04:31. | |
the Derby-based train maker Bombardier. Documents leaked to a | :04:31. | :04:33. | |
national newspaper appeared to contradict the Prime Minister's | :04:33. | :04:43. | |
:04:43. | :04:44. | ||
claims that his hands were tied on the issue. | :04:44. | :04:47. | |
The Prime Minister in South Africa today on a trade mission. Absent is | :04:47. | :04:50. | |
Colin Walton, the boss of Derby- based Bombardier. Although invited | :04:50. | :04:53. | |
to accompany the Prime Minister, he dropped out after a call from | :04:53. | :04:56. | |
Downing Street at the weekend. Could Bombardier's anger over | :04:56. | :05:02. | |
losing a government rail contract be the reason? Maybe this is | :05:02. | :05:05. | |
another reason? Department for Transport documents leaked to the | :05:05. | :05:07. | |
Daily Mirror appear to question David Cameron's assertion that he | :05:07. | :05:13. | |
was powerless to intervene. A clause in the original tender | :05:13. | :05:16. | |
document that awarded the contract to build new carriages for | :05:16. | :05:18. | |
Thameslink to Seimens rather than Bombardier, gives the government an | :05:18. | :05:21. | |
option to reconsider the deal. think they should be looking very | :05:21. | :05:24. | |
hard, particularly in light of the Mirror's article today. They should | :05:24. | :05:27. | |
be look very hard at awarding it to Bombardier because it means so much | :05:27. | :05:32. | |
to the local people. The Department for Transport, in a brief statement, | :05:32. | :05:34. | |
said the clause allowed only minor changes to the original contract | :05:34. | :05:39. | |
awarded to Seimens. But it's further ammunition for Derbyshire | :05:39. | :05:42. | |
MPs when they see the Prime Minister on his return from South | :05:42. | :05:46. | |
Africa. We need some confidence in Derby and if the Prime Minister | :05:47. | :05:51. | |
does a U-turn, it'll be the best U- turn he's ever made. 1400 jobs are | :05:51. | :05:55. | |
to go at Bombardier in Derby. The Thameslink contract and the very | :05:55. | :05:57. | |
future of Britain's last-remaining train makers is now to be | :05:57. | :06:06. | |
investigated by the influential Commons Transport Committee. | :06:06. | :06:09. | |
You're watching East Midlands Today, later: When cyclists and | :06:09. | :06:14. | |
pedestrians clash. We find out why the police are having to step in, | :06:14. | :06:23. | |
in what's supposed to be a bike- free zone. | :06:23. | :06:27. | |
The twin sister of a woman who was murdered in Australia says she had | :06:27. | :06:32. | |
expressed concern about her safety before her death. Sally Brooks died | :06:32. | :06:35. | |
on the day she was due to return permanently to Nottinghamshire with | :06:35. | :06:42. | |
her three children to begin a new life. | :06:42. | :06:45. | |
This is one of the last photos of Sally Brooks, taken in May visiting | :06:45. | :06:49. | |
her father in Stapleford who's very ill. Sally had decided to return | :06:49. | :06:52. | |
home so that her twin sister Alison could help bring up her three | :06:52. | :06:56. | |
children. For two and a half years she'd struggled as a single parent | :06:56. | :06:59. | |
and full time IT consultant having been married for ten years in | :06:59. | :07:04. | |
Australia. On July 1st, the alarm was raised when she failed to pick | :07:04. | :07:07. | |
up her children from school. She was found at her Melbourne home | :07:07. | :07:16. | |
with serious head injuries and died ten days later. I thought the last | :07:16. | :07:20. | |
of my twin sister was more than I could bear. But it was nothing | :07:20. | :07:23. | |
compared to seeing the faces of her children when they were told by the | :07:23. | :07:29. | |
police she had been deliberately hurt. Worse was to come when we saw | :07:29. | :07:33. | |
the three children crying hysterically by her bedside, trying | :07:33. | :07:37. | |
to wake her up. We know the meaning of heartbreak. | :07:37. | :07:41. | |
The family home was already sold and 48 year old Sally was selling | :07:41. | :07:48. | |
other household items via the internet. We're hoping to find | :07:48. | :07:52. | |
information from anyone who might have been in sales with the victim, | :07:52. | :07:56. | |
that might help with information as to who has done this. | :07:56. | :07:58. | |
During a news conference Alison said her sister had expressed | :07:58. | :08:01. | |
concerns about her safety and was asked how the childrens' father had | :08:01. | :08:10. | |
taken the news that she was returning to England. It was | :08:10. | :08:12. | |
eventually consented to after some difficulties. | :08:13. | :08:15. | |
Sally was described as an exceptional mother who lived for | :08:15. | :08:18. | |
her children. Her twin said she would forever be half instead of | :08:18. | :08:22. | |
whole. The family of a man who was killed | :08:22. | :08:27. | |
by a lorry driver say a special lens could have saved his life. | :08:27. | :08:29. | |
Michael Matthews from Burbage in Leicestershire died last year in a | :08:29. | :08:34. | |
crash on the M1. His wife was severely injured. His family say | :08:34. | :08:38. | |
the lorry driver couldn't see their car because of a blind spot as the | :08:38. | :08:43. | |
HGV was left-hand drive. Michael's widow spoke to our reporter, Helen | :08:43. | :08:53. | |
:08:53. | :08:53. | ||
Astle. We had been together since I was 18 | :08:53. | :09:03. | |
and I married when I was 19. He was just my best friend. Pat Matthews | :09:03. | :09:06. | |
talking about her husband, Michael. Last year they were making their | :09:06. | :09:10. | |
way home on the motorway when a left-hand drive lorry pulled into | :09:10. | :09:15. | |
the path of their car. Michael lost his life and Pat says she has been | :09:15. | :09:20. | |
given a life sentence for what has happened. A lorry driver, the | :09:20. | :09:23. | |
Czechs as Backley and national spend the next six months of his | :09:24. | :09:28. | |
life in prison after pleading guilty to causing death by driving | :09:28. | :09:34. | |
without due care and attention. dad was sideswipe, hit on the rear | :09:34. | :09:39. | |
bumper which spun the car around. The car spun several times and hit | :09:39. | :09:44. | |
the Embankment and it flipped the car over and landed on the roof. | :09:44. | :09:49. | |
The this was a left-hand drive a lorry, my steering wheel would be | :09:49. | :09:53. | |
here and my blind-spot would be over there and that is the problem. | :09:53. | :09:57. | |
Looking in that mirror, anyone driving along the right hands side | :09:57. | :10:04. | |
of the lorry, cannot be seen. In 2009, 18 people were killed by | :10:04. | :10:11. | |
foreign left hand lorries. That is one death every few weeks. The | :10:11. | :10:17. | |
family is launching a campaign to make it legal for all left hand | :10:17. | :10:21. | |
drive lorries to be fitted with a special lens which reduces the | :10:21. | :10:25. | |
blind-spot. If it saved somebody else's life, then we would be very | :10:25. | :10:30. | |
grateful. Something has got to be done. We cannot bring my father | :10:30. | :10:34. | |
back, but what we would like to highlight is the prevention of | :10:34. | :10:38. | |
other families having to go through what we have suffered. The family | :10:38. | :10:43. | |
is writing to the Prime Minister to highlight their campaign. Pat is | :10:43. | :10:47. | |
waiting for possible further surgery but says she will never | :10:47. | :10:51. | |
recover from what has happened. More former residents of a | :10:51. | :10:55. | |
children's home are to take legal action against two councils. 21 | :10:55. | :10:58. | |
people now claim they were victims of physical and sexual abuse by | :10:58. | :11:03. | |
staff while they were at Beechwood Children's Home. The property on | :11:03. | :11:06. | |
Woodborough Road in Nottingham was owned and operated by the county | :11:06. | :11:09. | |
council up until 1998, when ownership transferred to the city | :11:09. | :11:15. | |
council. It was closed in 2006. The Government's announced that RAF | :11:15. | :11:19. | |
Cottesmore at Oakham is to be turned into an Army base. It was | :11:19. | :11:23. | |
the home of the Harrier aircraft until last year. Since March it's | :11:23. | :11:26. | |
been a satellite base to RAF Wittering near Stamford and it was | :11:26. | :11:30. | |
due to close next year. Now the Defence Secretary says after 2015 | :11:30. | :11:38. | |
Cottesmore will house a major new army unit. | :11:38. | :11:42. | |
Police in Derby are hoping to speak to the victim of a stabbing later. | :11:42. | :11:45. | |
The 35 year old was attacked on Stanton Street in Normanton early | :11:45. | :11:49. | |
on Saturday morning. Officers say it looks like he was trying to | :11:49. | :11:55. | |
break up an argument. Police in Leicester were today | :11:55. | :11:58. | |
targeting cyclists who ride in pedestrian areas of the city. | :11:58. | :12:01. | |
Officers were in the New Walk area advising and encouraging cyclists | :12:01. | :12:11. | |
:12:11. | :12:12. | ||
to use different routes, as Paul Bradshaw reports. | :12:12. | :12:15. | |
Can I stop you a moment? There's been a ban on cycling along | :12:15. | :12:21. | |
New Walk for many years. And today Police were enforcing the bye-law. | :12:21. | :12:25. | |
We are trying to let people know why we're here and to think from a | :12:25. | :12:28. | |
different perspective. To some cyclists, the restrictions seemed | :12:28. | :12:36. | |
unfair. I understand they have to police this so people can use it as | :12:36. | :12:41. | |
a pedestrian area but in other places they have cycle paths. But | :12:41. | :12:47. | |
lots of people agreed something has to be done. It is long overdue. | :12:47. | :12:50. | |
Some come down at a reasonable speed but sometimes you have to | :12:50. | :12:55. | |
jump out of the way. Quite a few pedestrians walk a bit so you can | :12:55. | :12:59. | |
understand where they come from. Become down here 20 miles an hour | :12:59. | :13:06. | |
it seems and it's obvious it is will accident waiting to happen. | :13:06. | :13:10. | |
At the end of the day the message to cyclists was clear - on your | :13:10. | :13:12. | |
bike! They divide communities - to some | :13:12. | :13:14. | |
beautiful, others a blot on the landscape. But one thing looks | :13:14. | :13:18. | |
certain - there will be more wind turbines in our region in years to | :13:18. | :13:21. | |
come. The government wants to produce 15% of UK energy from | :13:21. | :13:24. | |
renewable methods by 2020. At the moment it says only 3% of our | :13:24. | :13:30. | |
energy is generated this way. Well, in the first of a new series, Simon | :13:30. | :13:32. | |
Ward was given access to Leicestershire's first commercial | :13:32. | :13:42. | |
:13:42. | :13:44. | ||
wind farm. Harnessing the power of nature is | :13:44. | :13:50. | |
not new, but a modern wind farm and turbine industry is in comparison | :13:50. | :13:56. | |
to this old windmill. But opinions are divided on the issue - should | :13:56. | :13:58. | |
refund them to benefit the environment? Or, are they a waste | :13:58. | :14:02. | |
of money and a blot on the landscape. Their numbers are | :14:02. | :14:08. | |
increasing across the East Midlands. This is the low spinning wind farm | :14:08. | :14:12. | |
near Gilmorton, Ashby magnet and Donson batters. It is the first in | :14:12. | :14:16. | |
the county and is due to be operational this summer. Graham | :14:16. | :14:20. | |
Jordan lives about 2.5 miles away and is convinced about the benefits | :14:20. | :14:25. | |
of the wind farm. I didn't find it difficult to become a supporter | :14:25. | :14:29. | |
because the people against it made such strong claims that were | :14:29. | :14:36. | |
clearly, they were myths and lies. Scientifically they are in | :14:36. | :14:40. | |
experienced. I know the science, that is why I took exception to it. | :14:40. | :14:44. | |
They put a poster outside my house and told me five miles from the | :14:44. | :14:48. | |
site, the whole area would be devastated. That is a very strong | :14:48. | :14:55. | |
term. The Blades are 125 metres high. The company behind the | :14:55. | :15:00. | |
project claims it will provide electricity for 5,000 homes. | :15:00. | :15:04. | |
Platforms block the view inside but this ladder reaches 80 metres up. | :15:04. | :15:09. | |
An escape plan shows a technician could throw themselves out when an | :15:10. | :15:13. | |
abseil type system in an emergency. Local environmentalists have been | :15:14. | :15:18. | |
keeping an eye on the development of this Leicestershire wind farm. | :15:18. | :15:22. | |
It is the way forward. Obviously they cost money to construct, but | :15:22. | :15:27. | |
in contrast to conventional power stations and installations, the | :15:27. | :15:32. | |
wind is free. It is inexhaustible, so it is an no-brainer. | :15:32. | :15:37. | |
everyone agrees. Local opponents failed to stop planning permission | :15:37. | :15:42. | |
being granted and they are still worried. You will read 12 things | :15:42. | :15:46. | |
and six of them will say there won't be any problems. You read | :15:46. | :15:52. | |
another six, No It's one not be fine it will be horrendous. Until | :15:52. | :15:55. | |
it is operational, you are living with a constant uncertainty. | :15:55. | :15:59. | |
Opponents say they are concerned about the health effects of noise | :15:59. | :16:03. | |
and so called flicker, when light comes through the turbines at | :16:03. | :16:09. | |
sunrise and sunset. We continue to campaign against them. At the | :16:09. | :16:12. | |
moment we are carrying out a health survey within the community to find | :16:12. | :16:17. | |
out how well the community is now and we were repeated in the year to | :16:17. | :16:20. | |
find out the detrimental effect the turbines have had on the health of | :16:20. | :16:27. | |
the community. In terms of bigger wind turbines, figures show there | :16:27. | :16:29. | |
are 13 Bills and operating in the region. But the scene is changing, | :16:29. | :16:35. | |
with 22 more large turbines given approval and many planning | :16:35. | :16:39. | |
applications in the pipeline. With the benefit of real experience, how | :16:39. | :16:45. | |
do people opposed to wind farms feel after some time? This is | :16:45. | :16:48. | |
Nottinghamshire, it went into operation towards the end of last | :16:48. | :16:52. | |
summer. This man and his wife can see it from their front garden and | :16:52. | :16:59. | |
say the turbines can occasionally be heard at night. I believe at a | :16:59. | :17:05. | |
125 metres from bottom to the top. I think myself overlooking the | :17:05. | :17:10. | |
village, further back they would have been better. But this lady | :17:10. | :17:16. | |
lives even closer to the turbines. I always think they can't build | :17:16. | :17:19. | |
underneath it and it preserves the countryside in that respect. I | :17:19. | :17:24. | |
cannot hear anything and the trees around me obscure a lot of them | :17:24. | :17:31. | |
anyway, although I can see them from to spring's aspects. -- | :17:31. | :17:35. | |
different aspects. There is no perfect solution for energy at the | :17:35. | :17:39. | |
moment. Fossil fuel have their problems at the moment and wind | :17:39. | :17:44. | |
farms cannot give us everything. The battles will rage on but with | :17:44. | :17:47. | |
more wing turbines being given approval they are increasing | :17:48. | :17:52. | |
presence on our landscape. And tomorrow, we'll be talking to a | :17:52. | :17:55. | |
company which has designed a new type of off-shore wind turbine | :17:55. | :17:59. | |
system. It says it could double the amount of power generated by | :17:59. | :18:09. | |
:18:09. | :18:12. | ||
existing off-shore wind farms. We have a wind of a new signing at | :18:12. | :18:18. | |
Nottingham Forest? Frustrated Forest fans can rest a | :18:18. | :18:21. | |
little easier this evening. The club have made their second signing | :18:21. | :18:23. | |
of the summer. It's former Manchester United, Middlesbro, West | :18:23. | :18:25. | |
Brom and Fulham midfielde,r Jonathan Greening. And Mark | :18:25. | :18:31. | |
Shardlow has been to meet him. is 32 and has been a substitute in | :18:31. | :18:34. | |
both Champions League and Europa League finals on the winner of the | :18:34. | :18:40. | |
Championship. Jonathan Greening is a Forest player. I am happy. I'm | :18:40. | :18:44. | |
glad it is all sorted now. It is nice it is sorted and I am here now | :18:45. | :18:49. | |
and ready to of rock and roll. is moving from a Premier League, | :18:49. | :18:55. | |
but once regular football and was impressed with the pitch. I have | :18:55. | :18:59. | |
known Steve McLaren a long time he was my assistant manager at | :18:59. | :19:01. | |
Manchester United and at Middlesbrough as my manager. When I | :19:01. | :19:07. | |
first spoke to him, he told me his aims and wanted to get this club | :19:07. | :19:14. | |
back into the Premier League. They have been close the last couple of | :19:14. | :19:17. | |
seasons and hopefully they can go that step further. It is definitely | :19:17. | :19:22. | |
the best league in the world. has played at the city Ground a | :19:22. | :19:29. | |
number of times. I scored four goals in the 8-1 victory with | :19:29. | :19:33. | |
Manchester United 4 star and he is hoping the look continues. He will | :19:33. | :19:36. | |
be training with his colleagues for the first time tomorrow. | :19:36. | :19:39. | |
Leicester City are looking for four more signings. The Championship's | :19:39. | :19:42. | |
big spenders are currently on a two -eek European tour. Natalie Jackson | :19:42. | :19:52. | |
:19:52. | :19:52. | ||
has caught up with them in Stockholm. | :19:53. | :19:58. | |
We are in Sweden for Leicester City's ten-day tour. We have been | :19:58. | :20:02. | |
behind the scenes with the team and been up close and personal with the | :20:02. | :20:06. | |
owners and they say what goes on tour, stays on tour but we will | :20:06. | :20:12. | |
have all of the secrets in Sweden and East Midlands today some -- | :20:12. | :20:15. | |
tomorrow. Meanwhile, Derby County are denying | :20:15. | :20:17. | |
reports they've approached Leicester about signing their | :20:17. | :20:20. | |
former skippe,r Matt Oakley. Derby start their more modest tour of the | :20:20. | :20:23. | |
north west of England tomorrow. Now, the revival of Donington Park | :20:23. | :20:25. | |
racing circuit continues with the first ever visit from the World | :20:25. | :20:28. | |
Touring Car Championships over the weekend. It's fast and tight racing | :20:28. | :20:31. | |
in cars that look almost like something you and I might drive. | :20:31. | :20:35. | |
But we don't drive them the way these guys do. As I found out in | :20:35. | :20:37. | |
some style from the Championship Leader. | :20:37. | :20:41. | |
Rob Huff is that man. The only Brit in the Championship and the | :20:41. | :20:44. | |
definite star of the weekend at Donington. With the World Touring | :20:44. | :20:47. | |
Cars now a key part of the parkland circuits programme. But what's it | :20:47. | :20:56. | |
really like to drive? Time to find out. It is a fantastic circuit. It | :20:56. | :21:06. | |
is Grace -- great for the racing. It will be close this weekend. | :21:06. | :21:11. | |
can see what you're thinking, not the Championship driver, but he | :21:11. | :21:15. | |
said he needed help. I will take you round the circuit and we will | :21:15. | :21:19. | |
get you fully kitted out. You can pretend you are a racing driver for | :21:19. | :21:24. | |
the evening. Just been whipped around the course, I have a | :21:24. | :21:30. | |
sneaking suspicion this might be scary. | :21:30. | :21:38. | |
4th here late braking. We have a 1.6 turbo engine, slick tyres, | :21:38. | :21:41. | |
massive brakes and a stiff suspension. You won't want to drive | :21:41. | :21:51. | |
this down your local high street. Matt was some braking, goodness me! | :21:51. | :22:01. | |
Hard on the brakes, third gear, second gear. That was all some. He | :22:01. | :22:05. | |
is the only Brits in it, and I can see why. | :22:05. | :22:08. | |
Amazing! As for the racing? Well, as dramatic as ever, with Rob Huff | :22:09. | :22:11. | |
taking two second places to maintain his Championship lead. And | :22:11. | :22:20. | |
highlighting the one bit of the experience I missed. It is a non- | :22:20. | :22:24. | |
contact sport. We are touring car drivers and won't shy of using the | :22:25. | :22:31. | |
bumpers. That is when it has entertaining. Yeah. Happy to stick | :22:31. | :22:37. | |
to what I did. Whatever the consequences personally. Hat hair. | :22:37. | :22:40. | |
In boxing, it was a brave effort, but Derby's Ovill McKenzie who we | :22:40. | :22:43. | |
featured last week, missed out on the British and Commonwealth light | :22:43. | :22:46. | |
heavyweight title. Mckenzie, from Derby, was beaten on points by Tony | :22:46. | :22:50. | |
Bellew in Liverpool. In cricket, the dates have been | :22:50. | :22:55. | |
announced for the Twenty20 quarter finals. Leicestershire will play | :22:55. | :22:58. | |
Kent on Saturday 6th August. Whilst Notts take on Somerset the | :22:58. | :23:06. | |
following day with an afternoon start. 1:45pm. | :23:06. | :23:09. | |
And a quick mention of an event at Braunston Leisure Centre in | :23:09. | :23:11. | |
Leicester tomorrow night. They've got both the England under 16 | :23:11. | :23:14. | |
basketball team in action and a special game involving the medal | :23:14. | :23:19. | |
winners for the GB Special Olympic team. Well worth your support. | :23:19. | :23:22. | |
It's the usual question they ask when they're about to wrap your | :23:22. | :23:25. | |
fish and chips: "do you want salt and vinegar on that"? Well a | :23:25. | :23:28. | |
Leicester chip shop owner believes he's come up with a way of adding | :23:28. | :23:31. | |
vinegar without making your dinner soggy. Our condiments correspondent | :23:31. | :23:35. | |
Angelina Socci's been finding out more. | :23:36. | :23:39. | |
We all know what's it like, you buy your fish and chips, you get them | :23:39. | :23:43. | |
home and all the vinegar has soaked through to the paper. Well fear not | :23:43. | :23:47. | |
because this shop believes it's found a solution. Lefteris | :23:47. | :23:50. | |
Eleftheriou has been running his fish and chip shop on Welford Road | :23:50. | :23:54. | |
for the past 30 years. But recently decided to come up with a dry | :23:54. | :24:04. | |
alternative to vinegar. I have a friends who works in ingredients | :24:04. | :24:09. | |
and flavourings. I asked him about three years ago if it was possible | :24:09. | :24:13. | |
to do salt that tastes like Vennegoor. It took him three years | :24:13. | :24:18. | |
and we have had some samples. Eventually about a week ago he came | :24:18. | :24:22. | |
with a sample that tastes nice. This is the ingredient and here's | :24:22. | :24:25. | |
the science. It includes salt, sugar and dextrose and when | :24:25. | :24:34. | |
combined is supposed to taste like salt and vinegar. I think this is | :24:34. | :24:39. | |
the right combinations. The flavour is nice and you can taste the | :24:39. | :24:42. | |
vinegar. The salt and vinegar is the right combination. The dry | :24:42. | :24:45. | |
sprinkle contains one third less sodium than normal salt. But do | :24:45. | :24:51. | |
customers approve? It is quite nice All Star had to me it tastes lovely. | :24:51. | :24:56. | |
Better than soggy chips. You can taste the Vennegoor. Deathly taste | :24:57. | :25:03. | |
the salt, but it is not soft. don't like a lot of vinegar. | :25:03. | :25:05. | |
his customers seem happy, Lefteris is hoping that other places will | :25:06. | :25:09. | |
pick up on the idea. The shop is now busy developing the packaging | :25:09. | :25:12. | |
for the product and looking at ways to market it. Only then will they | :25:12. | :25:22. | |
:25:22. | :25:24. | ||
know if it's really worth its salt And vinegar! | :25:24. | :25:29. | |
There was me thinking the height of sophistication was spray on vinegar. | :25:29. | :25:37. | |
Makes me want some fish and chips for my tea. | :25:37. | :25:44. | |
We thought we wouldn't see many showers in Nottingham but it has | :25:44. | :25:49. | |
rained very heavily within the last hour. One new arrival was captured | :25:49. | :25:58. | |
the of the day at the marina. We have a few showers with us at the | :25:58. | :26:01. | |
moment and as you might get more prolonged period of rain during the | :26:01. | :26:06. | |
early part of this evening. Gradually we will see the showers | :26:06. | :26:10. | |
diminishing. There won't go away totally overnight. If you will come | :26:10. | :26:15. | |
back in in the early hours of the morning. It has been a blustery day | :26:15. | :26:20. | |
and the wind will ease off overnight. Minimum temperatures | :26:20. | :26:25. | |
around 11 Celsius. Tomorrow morning, starting with a lot of cloud, | :26:25. | :26:30. | |
brightness at times but the showers developing. The wind will be much | :26:30. | :26:34. | |
lighter, so the showers, as they become heavier into the afternoon | :26:34. | :26:38. | |
and if you find yourself into the afternoon, it will be there for | :26:38. | :26:43. | |
quite a bit of time and some thunder also possible. Temperatures | :26:43. | :26:50. | |
will be warmer. Highs tomorrow of 20 Celsius, so improving slowly. | :26:50. | :26:54. | |
The wind direction much changed again coming from the north by the | :26:54. | :26:58. | |
middle part of the week and then a north-easterly. We still have | :26:58. | :27:02. | |
showers by the time we get to Wednesday. We will get to see a | :27:02. | :27:07. | |
small amount of sunshine in between those showers. On Thursday there is | :27:07. | :27:12. | |
a weather front, so it will be quite a showery day. The wind | :27:12. | :27:16. | |
continues to come from the North East. It will have an impact on the | :27:16. | :27:21. | |
temperatures. We will see them in the region of around 16 or 17 | :27:21. | :27:24. | |
Celsius through the middle part of the week. Night-time temperatures | :27:24. | :27:29. | |
not doing too badly. The wind will also ease down a bit. Towards the | :27:29. | :27:33. | |
weekend, although high pressure is not building in, it should ease off | :27:33. | :27:35. |
