This is East Midlands Today with Kylie Pentelow and me, Dominic | :00:04. | :00:14. | |
Heale. Did doctors leave a father to die? | :00:14. | :00:17. | |
A family claim they do not resuscitate order was placed | :00:17. | :00:22. | |
without their permission. Nobody had mentioned the possibility of | :00:22. | :00:29. | |
the order being put on. I was just absolutely distraught really. | :00:29. | :00:34. | |
Also tonight: of the kebab house explosion, a witness saw a man | :00:34. | :00:38. | |
running from the scene. Plus the French travellers enjoying | :00:38. | :00:42. | |
a holiday in a busy Leicester roundabout. She has come back to | :00:42. | :00:46. | |
England because they've been here before and they find it very pretty. | :00:47. | :00:52. | |
And from a blot on the landscape to a beauty spot, an old mining | :00:52. | :01:02. | |
:01:02. | :01:07. | ||
Welcome to Wednesday's programme. First tonight, the man who was left | :01:07. | :01:10. | |
to die after doctors decided it wouldn't be right to try to save | :01:10. | :01:17. | |
him. Bill Bilbie had been admitted to hospital just days beforehand. | :01:17. | :01:23. | |
His family say they should've been consulted over his treatment. And | :01:23. | :01:26. | |
in an email sent to them in error, a senior doctor admitted that | :01:26. | :01:32. | |
mistakes were made. Simon Hare reports. | :01:32. | :01:38. | |
Cards of empathy for the loss of a much loved husband and father. He | :01:38. | :01:48. | |
:01:48. | :01:50. | ||
died at the cue MC in Nottingham last week. -- the QMC. Finally, the | :01:50. | :01:55. | |
doctor admitted that they didn't tried to resuscitate you to the | :01:55. | :02:02. | |
order. The medical notes had been mocked do not resuscitate. I felt | :02:02. | :02:10. | |
sick, absolutely physically sick. The fact that it had not been | :02:10. | :02:17. | |
discussed, nobody had even mentioned the possibility. I was | :02:17. | :02:23. | |
just absolutely distraught. In a subsequent e-mail, inadvertently | :02:23. | :02:29. | |
sent to a friend, the medical director said that although it | :02:29. | :02:33. | |
appeared to be the right clinical decision, we failed to communicate | :02:33. | :02:37. | |
that proper decision to the daughter. They just said that they | :02:38. | :02:42. | |
didn't know that I was next of kin because they hadn't looked out the | :02:42. | :02:48. | |
paperwork. I basically said that I cannot believe that anybody would | :02:48. | :02:53. | |
make a life-or-death decision without checking the facts first. | :02:53. | :02:56. | |
Guidelines issued by the British Medical Association and the Royal | :02:56. | :03:01. | |
College of Nursing say that these orders should only be issued after | :03:01. | :03:05. | |
discussion with patients or the family. His family has now made a | :03:06. | :03:10. | |
formal complaint to the hospital. It has launched an investigation | :03:10. | :03:15. | |
and apologised for the breakdown in communication. Officials say the | :03:15. | :03:21. | |
man did receive the correct quality of care. | :03:21. | :03:24. | |
Earlier, I asked Derbyshire GP Dr Ben Lobo to outline the rights that | :03:24. | :03:34. | |
families and patients have as they near the end of their life. It is | :03:34. | :03:39. | |
important to acknowledge that this is a complex and sensitive matter, | :03:39. | :03:43. | |
but patients have like -- rights in law. With patience to have the | :03:43. | :03:47. | |
ability to make their own decisions, they usually go through a process | :03:47. | :03:55. | |
with the doctors and nurses about treatment decisions. Patients have | :03:55. | :03:58. | |
an independent right in law to make an advanced decision to refuse | :03:58. | :04:03. | |
treatment, even refusing life- sustaining treatment. That can be | :04:03. | :04:07. | |
legally binding on doctors and nurses. Should their families | :04:07. | :04:12. | |
always be told, no matter whose decision it was? Should the | :04:12. | :04:16. | |
relatives be told? It depends upon of the decision and the context of | :04:17. | :04:20. | |
that decision. Good practice is to include many people in that | :04:20. | :04:25. | |
decision and the sharing of that decision where it adds to the care | :04:25. | :04:30. | |
and support the best care for the patient. In certain circumstances, | :04:30. | :04:33. | |
say, where the patient says I do not want to share that information, | :04:33. | :04:38. | |
doctors and nurses have to make sure they look after the | :04:38. | :04:42. | |
confidentiality issues. In most circumstances, doctors and nurses | :04:42. | :04:49. | |
should make contact and communicate well with the family and friends. | :04:49. | :04:55. | |
Two doctors, commissions ultimately have the final say? It depends how | :04:55. | :04:59. | |
that decision is made. In an emergency, when there is no clear | :04:59. | :05:04. | |
decision being made in advance, doctors are compelled to make their | :05:04. | :05:07. | |
best interests decision for their patient. Doctors are accountable. | :05:07. | :05:12. | |
They just cannot make decisions on a whim. There are protections in | :05:12. | :05:17. | |
place to support patience and the decision-making process. This is an | :05:17. | :05:21. | |
emotional time for the family but it seems the difficulties are | :05:21. | :05:25. | |
coming down to communication problems. Communication is the most | :05:25. | :05:29. | |
powerful to all of getting quality of care better. If you can, take | :05:29. | :05:34. | |
time to have a conversation in advance, to plan ahead, take time | :05:34. | :05:39. | |
to talk and doctors and nurses made -- need to make time to listen | :05:39. | :05:44. | |
effectively and explore expectations and ideas. If that is | :05:44. | :05:51. | |
done well, it avoids many of the crisis. | :05:51. | :05:59. | |
-- crises. There are claims tonight that a man | :05:59. | :06:02. | |
wearing a balaclava mask was seen running from the scene of an | :06:02. | :06:05. | |
explosion that killed a shop worker at a fast food outlet on | :06:05. | :06:08. | |
Leicester's Narborough Road. It comes as the police named the | :06:08. | :06:13. | |
victim as Fiaz Ahmed Ansari. Mike O'Sullivan reports. | :06:13. | :06:17. | |
This is where the explosion happened at 2:20am on Monday. All | :06:17. | :06:25. | |
the rubble has been clear the way from what was once a kebab shop. -- | :06:25. | :06:29. | |
clear away. It was thought that no one was injured at first but during | :06:29. | :06:34. | |
site clearance on Monday, a body was discovered. Today, the police | :06:34. | :06:44. | |
named the victim. This is his photograph they few days before, | :06:44. | :06:48. | |
whilst on his way to a contractor who had worked on the job. It has | :06:48. | :06:55. | |
been a shock. He was genuine, good for the area, he mixed in and was | :06:55. | :06:59. | |
doing everything right. I've spoken to one eyewitness from the night of | :06:59. | :07:03. | |
the blast. The eyewitness says a man wearing a balaclava was seen | :07:03. | :07:06. | |
running from the scene seconds after the explosion. He dropped | :07:06. | :07:10. | |
some sort of back and got into a car. The police have arrested for | :07:10. | :07:16. | |
women and two men. They are still being questioned. This is a murder | :07:16. | :07:19. | |
investigation and they are appealing for anyone who saw any | :07:19. | :07:27. | |
suspicious activity in the area to get in contact with them. | :07:27. | :07:30. | |
This is East Midlands Today, later in the programme: it's transfer | :07:30. | :07:34. | |
deadline day and Natalie's got news from Leicester city. | :07:34. | :07:39. | |
A crowd has gathered at Leicester City. A Premier League player is | :07:39. | :07:49. | |
:07:49. | :07:54. | ||
expected any minute now. Find out In other news tonight: Fire crews | :07:54. | :07:57. | |
have evacuated homes in a village in Leicestershire after a gas main | :07:57. | :08:00. | |
caught fire. It happened this lunchtime on Riverside Walk in | :08:00. | :08:03. | |
Ashfordby. Fire crews evacuated homes within a 100 metres of the | :08:03. | :08:09. | |
fire which spread to a house and a caravan. | :08:09. | :08:12. | |
A little girl, who prompted a huge police search when she was reported | :08:12. | :08:15. | |
wandering alone in a city street at dusk yesterday night, has been | :08:15. | :08:21. | |
found safe and well. 60 officers started searches and house to house | :08:21. | :08:24. | |
inquiries in Arnold in Nottingham, after a concerned woman told the | :08:24. | :08:29. | |
police the little girl was out alone. Today, it was confirmed the | :08:29. | :08:32. | |
girl had in fact returned home last night, soon after being spotted | :08:32. | :08:35. | |
here on Coppice Road. The police had this advice for anyone finding | :08:35. | :08:45. | |
a vulnerable child. Our advice is don't be afraid to get involved. | :08:45. | :08:49. | |
However, don't take the child away from the area. Find out from the | :08:49. | :08:53. | |
child with a need to be in contact with and then seek assistance. | :08:53. | :09:03. | |

Phone as an seek assistance from people near by. | :09:05. | :09:08. | |
-- phone us and seek assistance.The Lord Mayor of Leicester, Councillor | :09:08. | :09:11. | |
Robert Wann, is at the centre of allegations that he was able to | :09:11. | :09:13. | |
dodge fines for parking near the council's headquarters, while other | :09:13. | :09:16. | |
motorists had to pay up. Now there are calls for an | :09:16. | :09:18. | |
independent investigation by the Standards Board of England. Let's | :09:18. | :09:21. | |
get more from our Political Editor, John Hess. John, what's the | :09:21. | :09:25. | |
background to this? The allegation is that he had | :09:25. | :09:27. | |
parking tickets with fines totalling up to �450, when he | :09:27. | :09:30. | |
parked his car outside the city council's New Walk administrative | :09:30. | :09:32. | |
offices. But after he alerted council officials, the parking | :09:32. | :09:35. | |
tickets were either cancelled or written off. Rob Wann is one of | :09:35. | :09:38. | |
Leicester's most senior Labour politicians and a former chairman | :09:38. | :09:44. | |
of Leicestershire's police authority. He took over the | :09:44. | :09:47. | |
ceremonial role of Lord Mayor in May, the same time that Sir Peter | :09:47. | :09:50. | |
Soulsby was elected Leicester's first City Mayor. It's Mayor | :09:50. | :09:52. | |
Soulsby, now its most powerful politician, who lodged a formal | :09:52. | :09:59. | |
complaint. I understand leaked documents reveal that Councillor | :09:59. | :10:02. | |
Wann, the current Lord Mayor, had allegedly evaded fines on five to | :10:02. | :10:12. | |
:10:12. | :10:15. | ||
seven occasions. So, will there be an inquiry? | :10:15. | :10:17. | |
An internal inquiry by a small committee of city councillors, | :10:17. | :10:20. | |
described to me as far too cosy, ruled out referring the Lord Mayor | :10:20. | :10:23. | |
to the powerful Standards Board of England. That's the organisation | :10:23. | :10:27. | |
that investigates complaints of misconduct in local government. | :10:27. | :10:30. | |
Instead, it's been left to the council's chief legal officer to | :10:30. | :10:34. | |
consider the next move. But that's angered Mayor Soulsby. He says | :10:34. | :10:36. | |
given the prominence of the councillor involved, the issue | :10:36. | :10:44. | |
needs to be dealt with independently and transparently. As | :10:44. | :10:48. | |
for Rob Wann, he told me he's making no public comment while any | :10:48. | :10:52. | |
investigation continues. Tonight, as Lord Mayor, he'll carry out his | :10:52. | :10:57. | |
civic duties as normal. He's due to attend a reception at Oadby on | :10:57. | :11:03. | |
Anglo-Indian trade. Around a dozen French travellers | :11:03. | :11:06. | |
who set up their home on a roundabout in Leicester have been | :11:06. | :11:10. | |
given notice to leave the site. It's the second time the group have | :11:10. | :11:19. | |
come to the city. Helen Astle reports. | :11:19. | :11:23. | |
I have a notice from the council... The travellers have been on the | :11:23. | :11:30. | |
roundabout for four days. The police and the council are worried. | :11:30. | :11:34. | |
We have no stopping of places in Leicestershire for them to go to, | :11:34. | :11:38. | |
any transit sites. There are very few throughout the country. We try | :11:38. | :11:41. | |
to tolerate travellers and a lot of areas. Unfortunately, in this area, | :11:42. | :11:47. | |
it is a busy road and a distraction to drivers. It is dangerous for the | :11:47. | :11:51. | |
children. This is what they wanted to do. They have always moved | :11:51. | :11:55. | |
around and they continue to do so. Their lives are not particularly | :11:55. | :12:01. | |
sad. They are living at the life they want to live. Rebecca told me, | :12:02. | :12:06. | |
through a translator, why she is in Leicester. She has come back to | :12:06. | :12:09. | |
England because they've been here before and they find it pretty. | :12:09. | :12:12. | |
They wanted to come back here and see it again. How does she feel | :12:13. | :12:17. | |
about being asked to leave the side? Because we are travelling | :12:17. | :12:22. | |
people, we are used to that and so when the police come, we play our | :12:22. | :12:26. | |
role and removal long. All of the travellers here have now been | :12:26. | :12:31. | |
served a notice to quit the site. The ones I've spoken to have told | :12:31. | :12:35. | |
me that they will leave by tomorrow night. If they don't, the council | :12:35. | :12:42. | |
will take them to court to have them evicted. | :12:42. | :12:45. | |
Derbyshire's air ambulance helped in a dramatic rescue of 22 people | :12:45. | :12:48. | |
stuck on a fairground ride in Skegness yesterday. One woman was | :12:49. | :12:53. | |
left with serious head injuries, others suffered minor injuries. Air | :12:53. | :12:55. | |
ambulance staff have described it as an unusual scenario, with the | :12:55. | :13:03. | |
ride on its side with people stuck inside and others trapped high up. | :13:03. | :13:06. | |
A shoplifter with a history of violent and racially abusive | :13:06. | :13:09. | |
behaviour has been banned from the Sneinton area of Nottingham for two | :13:09. | :13:12. | |
years. James Anderson, who's 50, subjected staff and customers to | :13:12. | :13:18. | |
abuse over a six month period. He was seen intimidating staff on 13 | :13:18. | :13:22. | |
different occasions, including threatening to set his dog on them. | :13:22. | :13:29. | |
The court order lasts until August 2013. | :13:29. | :13:32. | |
Now the clever people who are in charge of making all our TVs | :13:32. | :13:35. | |
digital have spent the whole day helping those who are a little | :13:35. | :13:39. | |
confused about the big switchover that happened last night. | :13:39. | :13:42. | |
Yes, they've been at a roadshow in Nottingham answering your questions | :13:42. | :13:46. | |
after the analogue signal from the Waltham transmitter was turned off. | :13:46. | :13:49. | |
If your TV, or in fact your brain, is still a little fuzzy, don't | :13:49. | :13:55. | |
worry. We have an expert on our sofa, Megan Lewis from Digital UK. | :13:55. | :14:02. | |
So, Megan what are the common issues today? The switch-over has | :14:02. | :14:05. | |
gone well and the questions we've been getting are the sort of things | :14:05. | :14:10. | |
we would expect. People are wanting help with retuning. There is an | :14:10. | :14:16. | |
overlap area which is not unusual. Sometimes, people will put up a | :14:16. | :14:20. | |
different news service. We have been helping people to get their | :14:20. | :14:23. | |
preferred news service back. Other than that, people seem to have | :14:23. | :14:27. | |
dealt with it well and there is still lots of help available if | :14:27. | :14:31. | |
people want to contact us all look at our website. People might be | :14:31. | :14:35. | |
tempted to hire a TV repair man or woman. Would you advise against | :14:35. | :14:40. | |
that? I would advise against it. Virtually all the issues can be | :14:40. | :14:43. | |
resolved by having a chat with the staff on our advice line all | :14:43. | :14:48. | |
looking at our website. Hopefully by this time, all your viewers will | :14:48. | :14:54. | |
be switched. They can guide you through, can't they? The person on | :14:54. | :14:58. | |
the phone so as to push different buttons. They chat whilst she was | :14:58. | :15:02. | |
sacked by the television and will talk you through the process, until | :15:02. | :15:06. | |
you are happy that it is sought a. A so double say that some of the | :15:06. | :15:13. | |
channels are fuzzy... -- some of the people I have spoken to say the | :15:13. | :15:20. | |
channels are fuzzy. People tried to retuned too early and may have not | :15:20. | :15:24. | |
had the full strength at that point. If people retune at teatime, all | :15:25. | :15:30. | |
the TV channels should be there. There is a helpline as well. | :15:30. | :15:40. | |

up houses, now Sarah Beeny helps Food companies here are being | :16:07. | :16:11. | |
offered help to export their goods to Asia. And it could make them | :16:11. | :16:13. | |
millions. Top of the list, selling curry made | :16:13. | :16:17. | |
in the East Midlands to India. It may sound strange but experts says | :16:17. | :16:24. | |
the opportunities are not to be sniffed at. Paul Bradshaw reports. | :16:24. | :16:29. | |
Lifting the lid on a global market worth billions. Food manufacturers | :16:29. | :16:34. | |
in the East Midlands know how to make good Indian food. Now they are | :16:34. | :16:37. | |
learning how to export that expertise back to India. The global | :16:37. | :16:42. | |
economy and the world is changing. India is now a major power base. I | :16:42. | :16:49. | |
think we in Britain or, even though our parents came from India, we | :16:49. | :16:53. | |
need to tap into that huge growth that India is having now and will | :16:53. | :16:57. | |
continue to have. Halle region is not short of big name food | :16:57. | :17:02. | |
manufacturers. -- our region. Companies like us recognise the | :17:02. | :17:06. | |
enormous growth potential of building export markets with India. | :17:06. | :17:11. | |
It is a great opportunity for the East Midlands and companies based | :17:11. | :17:17. | |
in the East Midlands to export and create more employment, more | :17:17. | :17:24. | |
businesses and also the employment in the supply chain. A last year, | :17:24. | :17:28. | |
trade between the two countries was worth �10 billion. Whilst imports | :17:28. | :17:36. | |
from India grew by 27 %, the export market has increased by almost 40 %. | :17:36. | :17:40. | |
Anything that raises the appreciation and understanding of | :17:40. | :17:44. | |
the need to export our products and services around the world has to be | :17:44. | :17:48. | |
a good thing. In this part of the world, we have a particular benefit | :17:48. | :17:52. | |
of having an Asian community producing Asian products which are | :17:53. | :17:57. | |
eminently exportable. Whilst these curries are bound for supermarket | :17:57. | :18:00. | |
shelves, further down the line, they could be heading much further | :18:00. | :18:07. | |
afield. The Nottingham chef Sat Bains is | :18:07. | :18:10. | |
encouraging people to host coffee mornings to help raise money for | :18:10. | :18:16. | |
charity. The Michelin-starred chef is backing a national campaign by | :18:16. | :18:20. | |
Macmillan Cancer Support. The idea is to get people across the country | :18:20. | :18:23. | |
to hold coffee mornings on the 30th September. Sat Bains says Macmillan | :18:23. | :18:31. | |
nurses were invaluable when his own grandmother was ill. I remember | :18:31. | :18:35. | |
them this is coming. They used to support her. I didn't know who they | :18:35. | :18:38. | |
were but they used to stay with her through the night. It was | :18:38. | :18:43. | |
incredible. They were like angels. I was 20 years of age and it was an | :18:43. | :18:49. | |
emotional time. We are in a position now where we can support | :18:49. | :18:57. | |
it as much as we can. There was talk of a new signing for | :18:57. | :19:07. | |
:19:07. | :19:19. | ||
Leicester City! It is... This is the last chance this year for clubs | :19:19. | :19:24. | |
to buy players. A small crowd had gathered here tonight because we | :19:24. | :19:29. | |
are expecting at Premier League player to arrive. We understand | :19:29. | :19:32. | |
that Everton striker Jermaine Beckford could be joining Leicester | :19:32. | :19:37. | |
City. The club have been linked with a number of strikers today. We | :19:37. | :19:43. | |
must say that but Beckford has apparently accepted a bid, Everton | :19:43. | :19:48. | |
have accepted a bid. Beckford is a highly rated striker and it is a | :19:48. | :19:55. | |
big deal because it would be a cool if Leicester attracted him here. -- | :19:55. | :20:01. | |
-- a coup. We understand that Jermaine Beckford will be coming | :20:01. | :20:05. | |
here this evening and will be in talks with the club. Let's have a | :20:05. | :20:10. | |
look at the rest of the activity today. | :20:10. | :20:15. | |
The busiest club today has been Leicester City. Sven Goran Eriksson | :20:15. | :20:24. | |
boss macro phone has been hot all day. 1:00pm and the Swede was coy | :20:24. | :20:30. | |
about so -- signing Jermaine Beckford. It is enough to look at | :20:30. | :20:35. | |
his goalscoring record. There is a suggestion that it has been | :20:35. | :20:40. | |
accepted. Is that not true? comment. But by mid-afternoon, | :20:40. | :20:50. | |
:20:50. | :20:58. | ||
Everton had accepted a bid from It is all quite at Derby County but | :20:58. | :21:03. | |
Nottingham Forest striker Joe Vagana should sign for Watford. No | :21:03. | :21:10. | |
one was available to comment today but at the weekend, Steve McLaren | :21:10. | :21:19. | |
showed his frustration. This continues the season... There are | :21:19. | :21:24. | |
reasons which we have been talking about for two years and have | :21:24. | :21:27. | |
continued this year. We have to do some work in the next few days to | :21:27. | :21:33. | |
address what we have been saying all along. And Notts County... | :21:33. | :21:39. | |
Nothing to report for Martin Allen with the bulk of his business | :21:39. | :21:44. | |
having been done in the beginning of the window. | :21:44. | :21:48. | |
Back here, no sign of Jermaine Beckford yet but the club's | :21:48. | :21:52. | |
officials and hierarchy are working very hard this evening to try to | :21:52. | :22:00. | |
bring in a striker. 12 Cricket -- on to cricket, and England are | :22:00. | :22:04. | |
playing India in the T20 match at Old Trafford. Nottinghamshire's | :22:04. | :22:08. | |
Alex Hales is making his debut in the side. He's one of four Notts | :22:08. | :22:11. | |
players in the team - captain Stuart Broad, Samit Patel and | :22:11. | :22:21. | |
:22:21. | :22:26. | ||
Graeme Swann are the others. Leicestershire have let go a player | :22:26. | :22:35. | |
today. They are in action this evening against Middlesex. They are | :22:35. | :22:38. | |
about 303 runs behind so not a good day for Leicestershire. At | :22:38. | :22:43. | |
Leicester City, we are hoping for the arrival of a new player this | :22:43. | :22:53. | |
:22:53. | :22:58. | ||
evening and will bring you the latest in our late bulletin. | :22:58. | :23:00. | |
Up until the late '80s, the Nottinghamshire village of Newstead | :23:01. | :23:03. | |
was lively and bustling. The local coal mine brought money into the | :23:04. | :23:07. | |
area and created jobs. 20 years on though the villagers | :23:07. | :23:10. | |
thought it needed some TLC. So they called in the BBC programme Village | :23:10. | :23:13. | |
SOS with presenter Sarah Beeney and in turn received a Lottery grant of | :23:13. | :23:16. | |
more than �400,000. With that they've transformed old | :23:16. | :23:24. | |
pit tips into a thriving country park as Jonathan Cecil found out. | :23:24. | :23:28. | |
Newstead was a thriving mining community with social clubs, | :23:28. | :23:32. | |
doctors' surgeries and shops, all paid for by mining. On the edge of | :23:32. | :23:39. | |
the village is a 220 acre site, once used to dump mining waste, and | :23:39. | :23:45. | |
that is where the community are to build a country park. Where do you | :23:45. | :23:51. | |
start? When everyone is out of work, it is a struggle. Michael runs a | :23:52. | :23:56. | |
charity which helps young people by teaching them fishing. We were very | :23:56. | :24:00. | |
interested in engaging them in the local community as well as | :24:00. | :24:03. | |
education because it is important having young people on board if you | :24:03. | :24:08. | |
are going to do anything in the village. He wants to transform the | :24:08. | :24:11. | |
pond into a fishing lake with a state-of-the-art visitors' centre | :24:11. | :24:14. | |
which could be a helpful local activities and possesses. But he | :24:14. | :24:19. | |
has not been alone. The BBC's village SOS has been filming for | :24:19. | :24:23. | |
the last year and they were successful in getting money from | :24:23. | :24:27. | |
the lottery fund. 20 year-old Ashley works for the charity and | :24:27. | :24:30. | |
will be heavily involved in the project. He is eager to see his | :24:30. | :24:35. | |
mates help out. It has had a positive impact and we are just at | :24:35. | :24:40. | |
the start. This is not just going to last a year, it will be an | :24:40. | :24:44. | |
ongoing project. There will be opportunities for work within the | :24:44. | :24:48. | |
park. They also had help from a business mentor to take their | :24:48. | :24:53. | |
vision forward. You cannot create a country park from scratch within a | :24:53. | :24:58. | |
year but we have laid 10,000 hedgers, created hundreds of acres | :24:58. | :25:03. | |
of fencing, you can probably see the building behind me that has the | :25:03. | :25:07. | |
largest single tower wall in the world. That was built with over 100 | :25:07. | :25:14. | |
members of the local community hand building and packing those tyres. | :25:14. | :25:18. | |
We've done an amazing job and have engaged well over 50 % of the | :25:18. | :25:25. | |
community in this project in some way. The community is celebrating | :25:25. | :25:30. | |
their success so far with a festival, featuring big-name bands | :25:30. | :25:34. | |
at the side from the 9th to 11th September. The profits will further | :25:34. | :25:44. | |
:25:44. | :25:45. | ||
We have had a cloudy wheat so far but we are hopeful of things | :25:45. | :25:48. | |
becoming brighter as we head towards the end of the week. | :25:48. | :25:53. | |
Tonight, cloudy and mostly dry. The small chance they are clad will | :25:53. | :26:01. | |
thicken. -- the crowd will thicken. Temperatures will drop down to 11 | :26:01. | :26:11. | |
Celsius for most of us. Colder in some rural spots. Tomorrow, the | :26:11. | :26:14. | |
cloud will thin during the day and it will brighten up into the | :26:14. | :26:18. | |
afternoon. Temperatures still quite cold at around 18 on 19 Celsius. | :26:18. | :26:24. | |
That is 66 Fahrenheit. On Thursday, as we going to Friday, we will see | :26:24. | :26:28. | |
an unsubtle day. It will be a dry day with quite a bit of sunshine | :26:28. | :26:31. | |
expected. That will be reflected in the temperatures. They will creep | :26:31. | :26:39. | |
up a little bit, a high of 22-23 Celsius. Into Saturday, the cold | :26:39. | :26:43. | |
front will slowly move its weight in during the day so Saturday will | :26:43. | :26:47. | |
start of dry but the cloud will increase and the rain will push in | :26:47. | :26:50. | |
later on into the afternoon. The warm weather stays with us across | :26:50. | :26:56. | |
the weekend. Saturday is looking at around 22 degrees. Sunday, some dry | :26:56. | :27:00. | |
and settled conditions around but we are expecting some rain. | :27:00. | :27:03. | |
Temperatures will drop off a little bit. Not doing too bad for | :27:03. | :27:08. | |
September which it will be by the News Justin, a man has been | :27:08. | :27:12. | |
arrested over the death of a three- year-old boy in Derbyshire. The | :27:12. | :27:16. | |
child was taken to hospital in Derby a serious injuries on Tuesday | :27:16. | :27:18. | |
afternoon. He was later transferred to | :27:18. | :27:22. | |
Nottingham where he died this afternoon. A 21 year-old man has | :27:22. | :27:26. | |
been arrested and remains in custody. Police say they are | :27:26. | :27:29. |
