Peter, thank you. That's all from the BBC | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
This is East Midlands Today with Anne Davies and me, Dominic Heale. | :00:00. | :00:08. | |
Tonight, joy and relief as Bombardier lands the ?1 billion | :00:09. | :00:18. | |
Crossrail contract. This order should secure the future of this | :00:19. | :00:22. | |
factory for five years and provide a bumper payday for the whole East | :00:23. | :00:29. | |
Midlands economy. The Leicestershire Theatre at the centre of a police | :00:30. | :00:33. | |
child sex investigation. And complaints arising about these ` | :00:34. | :00:37. | |
websites which check applications online but come with a hefty price | :00:38. | :00:45. | |
tag. And former Tiger Matt Hanson makes it a special day for the new | :00:46. | :00:49. | |
school. These children deserve everything they get. It is great to | :00:50. | :00:56. | |
have, especially a facility they can access. Good evening. First tonight, | :00:57. | :01:09. | |
the best possible news for Derby and its proud history of train`making. | :01:10. | :01:15. | |
Bombardier, based in the city, has won a contract worth ?1 billion. It | :01:16. | :01:22. | |
will help to safeguard the jobs of hundreds of staff who work for the | :01:23. | :01:23. | |
company 0 hundreds of staff who work for the | :01:24. | :01:25. | |
company and hopefully help to provide work for the engineers of | :01:26. | :01:28. | |
the future. Our reporter, Simon Hare, has spent the day at the | :01:29. | :01:32. | |
factory and joins us now. Simon, it sounds big but just how significant | :01:33. | :01:42. | |
is this order? Well, if you consider that each of these vehicles behind | :01:43. | :01:49. | |
me costs about ?1 million and this order is for 600 of them and when | :01:50. | :01:53. | |
you add the associated costs, this is worth ?1 billion. An incredible | :01:54. | :02:02. | |
boost to the East Midlands economy. It has received massive welcome | :02:03. | :02:12. | |
across politicians. On Twitter, Derby North, Chris Williamson, | :02:13. | :02:14. | |
tweeted that the long campaign to secure the Crossrail contract had | :02:15. | :02:17. | |
been successful. Pauline Latham, the Conservative MP for Mid`Derbyshire, | :02:18. | :02:20. | |
said it was brilliant news. And even the Prime Minister was on Twitter | :02:21. | :02:24. | |
earlier saying it was great news for Bombardier and Derby. Derby is a | :02:25. | :02:33. | |
city very proud of its railway heritage. You do not have to look | :02:34. | :02:40. | |
too closely to see that Derby is a proud railway town. It might be a | :02:41. | :02:45. | |
city that employs more in aerospace and the automotive industry but | :02:46. | :02:50. | |
there probably would not be here if it had not been for the engineering | :02:51. | :02:56. | |
know`how already here. 1500 people work at Bombardier. The current | :02:57. | :03:01. | |
order book lasts until next year. But news of today's order guarantees | :03:02. | :03:08. | |
work for the next five years. This is a walk`through vehicle, similar | :03:09. | :03:14. | |
to Crossrail. Kevin has been here 27 years and says there is relief among | :03:15. | :03:18. | |
the workers that they know their future is secure. There was | :03:19. | :03:23. | |
apprehension about not knowing. The uncertainty is the biggest fear and | :03:24. | :03:28. | |
as soon as they got that news, everybody was jumping for joy. The | :03:29. | :03:34. | |
?1 billion order will provide trains for the new Crossrail route. It goes | :03:35. | :03:39. | |
through and under London. Ahmadi able make the trains which carry | :03:40. | :03:45. | |
passengers on the line. Today, the Secretary of State for transport | :03:46. | :03:50. | |
dropped in to see where the investment was going. He denied it | :03:51. | :03:55. | |
was purely political after criticism three years ago when an even bigger | :03:56. | :04:01. | |
order went to a German company. They have won this because the workforce | :04:02. | :04:06. | |
put together an excellent deal. They won this overwhelmingly. It is great | :04:07. | :04:11. | |
news for manufacturing in the East Midlands. We have invested ?20 | :04:12. | :04:18. | |
million of our own money on this platform, the core technology, and | :04:19. | :04:24. | |
we did that without any order. This year is the 175th anniversary of | :04:25. | :04:29. | |
train building in Derby, which has provided work for generations. | :04:30. | :04:34. | |
Today's announcement means that although the designs might have | :04:35. | :04:37. | |
changed, it remains an industry and a career for the future. Yes, there | :04:38. | :04:45. | |
was a time when young people here would choose if they were going to | :04:46. | :04:49. | |
work for Rolls`Royce or the railway but in reality, few jobs coming up | :04:50. | :04:56. | |
in the railways. But there will be many more apprenticeship schemes as | :04:57. | :04:59. | |
part of this and I am joined by Angela Dean, the head of engineering | :05:00. | :05:04. | |
at the University of Derby. Great news? Absolutely great news. And | :05:05. | :05:11. | |
also for the new university technical College which starts in | :05:12. | :05:15. | |
two years and will take those very young people into apprenticeship | :05:16. | :05:19. | |
schemes. As well as students, we have 800 students in Derby studying | :05:20. | :05:25. | |
engineering and they are in different areas 0 | :05:26. | :05:25. | |
engineering and they are in different areas like manufacturing, | :05:26. | :05:27. | |
production, electronic engineering and mechanical engineering and they | :05:28. | :05:35. | |
have opportunities behind us. They have ruled out railways? ! It was | :05:36. | :05:39. | |
very difficult to persuade people to move into this industry because | :05:40. | :05:42. | |
people were training in this industry for a long time but that | :05:43. | :05:46. | |
has changed in the last few years so it is not only Bombardier, it is the | :05:47. | :05:52. | |
supply chain that has lots of opportunities for people to enter | :05:53. | :05:55. | |
those areas. Derby has a largest concentration of supply companies | :05:56. | :06:01. | |
that feed into this? Absolutely, over 200 companies in Derby and it | :06:02. | :06:05. | |
is one of the places that has the highest proportion of advanced | :06:06. | :06:10. | |
technology jobs, 12%. Better than anywhere else. That means there is a | :06:11. | :06:15. | |
great opportunity for people in the East Midlands and our students to | :06:16. | :06:21. | |
enter those areas. Many thanks. Great 0 | :06:22. | :06:21. | |
enter those areas. Many thanks. Great news for the engineers of the | :06:22. | :06:24. | |
future but also from any of the workers here who we have been | :06:25. | :06:28. | |
talking to. They are pleased they have worked for the next five years. | :06:29. | :06:33. | |
All thanks to this ?1 billion contract. Bombardier back on track. | :06:34. | :06:39. | |
Coming up later: The fast track to Olympic glory. The Winter Games in | :06:40. | :06:42. | |
Sochi haven't even started but Nottingham speed skater John Eley is | :06:43. | :06:51. | |
already bursting with pride. Leicestershire Police are | :06:52. | :06:53. | |
investigating allegations of child sex offences connected to a theatre | :06:54. | :06:59. | |
in Hinckley. Two men have been arrested. Meanwhile, the local | :07:00. | :07:03. | |
council isn't issuing any licences for children to take part in shows | :07:04. | :07:07. | |
and the police are appealing for any information that could help their | :07:08. | :07:11. | |
inquiries. The officer leading the investigation has described it as | :07:12. | :07:14. | |
complex and delicate. Helen Astle reports. Performances have been | :07:15. | :07:24. | |
staged here for more than 40 years and now the theatre itself is under | :07:25. | :07:30. | |
the spotlight. Last rubber, police started investigating allegations of | :07:31. | :07:35. | |
children being sexually abused. They do not know how many victims there | :07:36. | :07:42. | |
are. We have arrested two people so far and they are connected to the | :07:43. | :07:47. | |
theatre but the offences were not committed at the theatre itself, it | :07:48. | :07:51. | |
was away from the theatre. The two people banned from the theatre at | :07:52. | :07:56. | |
our request have not been arrested but if information leads us to | :07:57. | :08:00. | |
believe they are not responsible people to be part of that, then we | :08:01. | :08:07. | |
will. The council increased in number of visits made to the theatre | :08:08. | :08:12. | |
to ensure that children were safe. The authorities decided not to issue | :08:13. | :08:16. | |
any licenses for children to take part in forthcoming productions. | :08:17. | :08:21. | |
Parents are being urged to speak to their children and if they have any | :08:22. | :08:23. | |
concerns, they should contact police. It is a very delicate | :08:24. | :08:29. | |
issue, we realise it is sensitive and we do not 0 | :08:30. | :08:30. | |
issue, we realise it is sensitive and we do not take these cases | :08:31. | :08:34. | |
lightly. It is very complex. We would like people to speak to our | :08:35. | :08:39. | |
trained detectives. The men arrested have not been charged, they are on | :08:40. | :08:44. | |
bail and the police have also carried out searches at for | :08:45. | :08:48. | |
premises, including the Concordia. Nobody from the theatre wanted to | :08:49. | :08:53. | |
talk to me on camera. They did give me a brief statement, saying they | :08:54. | :08:57. | |
were cooperating with all of the agencies and it would be | :08:58. | :09:03. | |
inappropriate to comment further. Derbyshire's Fire Service may back | :09:04. | :09:07. | |
down on plans to close a third of its stations. During a three`month | :09:08. | :09:11. | |
consultation, 85% of people disagreed with the proposals. The | :09:12. | :09:16. | |
service now says any closures are a last resort. It is proposing to | :09:17. | :09:20. | |
reduce its staff requirements, although it wants to avoid | :09:21. | :09:23. | |
compulsory redundancies. The county's Fire Authority will discuss | :09:24. | :09:26. | |
the proposals next week. A 27`year`old man has been cleared of | :09:27. | :09:30. | |
the murder of a teenager who was shot outside a Nottingham pub. | :09:31. | :09:33. | |
Malakai McKenzie was killed near The Hub in Sherwood in April 2012. This | :09:34. | :09:39. | |
afternoon, Shakir Robinson was found not guilty of playing a part in his | :09:40. | :09:44. | |
death. Another man, Cameron Cashin from Basford, has already been | :09:45. | :09:49. | |
convicted of Mr McKenzie's murder. Representatives from one of | :09:50. | :09:51. | |

today in connection with alleged safety failings in the management of | :09:56. | :10:01. | |
X`ray materials. The Health and Safety Executive says it relates to | :10:02. | :10:04. | |
possible breaches at this factory in Derby three years ago, when it was a | :10:05. | :10:08. | |
former site for Rolls`Royce Marine Power Operations. The case has now | :10:09. | :10:16. | |
been referred to the Crown Court. Some parents at a Derbyshire primary | :10:17. | :10:19. | |
school say they're angry that the head teacher has temporarily left | :10:20. | :10:23. | |
the school in the wake of a critical report. St Giles Primary School's | :10:24. | :10:26. | |
Ofsted rating plunged last autumn from outstanding to inadequate. Some | :10:27. | :10:32. | |
parents were unhappy about how the school was performing but others | :10:33. | :10:35. | |
have told the BBC that everyone involved with the Matlock school | :10:36. | :10:38. | |
should be backing it and the head. Here's James Roberson. Happier days | :10:39. | :10:48. | |
in 1992 at St Giles, when the Queen came to open officially the | :10:49. | :10:53. | |
Newbuildings. Not so happy days now. Far from growing, the school is | :10:54. | :10:58. | |
actually shrinking. It confirmed that since September, 15 children | :10:59. | :11:05. | |
out of 107 have left. It is understood that the long`standing | :11:06. | :11:09. | |
headmaster of the headmistress has left a post after some parents | :11:10. | :11:14. | |
handed in a 25 name inspection to Ofsted. The parents have lost | :11:15. | :11:19. | |
confidence and they are unhappy with the school 's direction since the | :11:20. | :11:24. | |
last report, when a school went from outstanding to inadequate and was | :11:25. | :11:28. | |
put into special measures. In a statement, the chair of governors | :11:29. | :11:32. | |
said the governing body continues to work closely with Derbyshire County | :11:33. | :11:37. | |
Council and the Board of Education. I can confirm that the head will not | :11:38. | :11:41. | |
be in school for the time being. We are continuing to work together to | :11:42. | :11:45. | |
put interim arrangements in place. One parent told us of camera that | :11:46. | :11:51. | |
most parents wanted the head's removal and they believe mass many | :11:52. | :11:56. | |
as 25% of children have left. The parents support the school. I'm not | :11:57. | :12:01. | |
worried about my son 's education and can only get stronger if would | :12:02. | :12:05. | |
just support us. And not be so negative. I will not be taking my | :12:06. | :12:10. | |
son away. I hope everyone shows support, it is a community school. | :12:11. | :12:15. | |
The way some parents have behaved is the opposite of the 0 0 | :12:16. | :12:18. | |
The way some parents have behaved is the opposite of the Christian ethos | :12:19. | :12:20. | |
and I find it very disappointing. I am very angry. Ofsted have not | :12:21. | :12:26. | |
commented officially but they say that any complaints received about | :12:27. | :12:29. | |
any school are taken seriously and thoroughly investigated. There's | :12:30. | :12:34. | |
been a huge rise in the number of complaints about websites offering | :12:35. | :12:36. | |
online form`checking services which do very little yet charge huge sums | :12:37. | :12:43. | |
of money. Trading Standards say in January they received twice as many | :12:44. | :12:46. | |
complaints as they did for the whole of last year. Sarah Teale has joined | :12:47. | :12:52. | |
us in the studio, Sarah, what kind of websites are we talking about | :12:53. | :12:58. | |
here? They're independent companies which offer some kind of checking | :12:59. | :13:01. | |
service for applications like passports or tax returns. But the | :13:02. | :13:05. | |
problem is they're designed to look like the official websites so people | :13:06. | :13:08. | |
don't realise they're paying for something they may not even need. | :13:09. | :13:11. | |
Nottinghamshire Trading Standards say the problem is 0 | :13:12. | :13:13. | |
Nottinghamshire Trading Standards say the problem is escalating. | :13:14. | :13:18. | |
Throughout the whole of last year they received 41 complaints about | :13:19. | :13:21. | |
this sort of practice. So far this year, they've already had 24 | :13:22. | :13:26. | |
complaints. I've been speaking to Rebecca 0 | :13:27. | :13:26. | |
complaints. I've been speaking to Rebecca Hardiman from West Bridgford | :13:27. | :13:29. | |
in Nottingham, who lost hundreds of pounds after filling in her annual | :13:30. | :13:38. | |
tax return form. I used Google for tax returns and at the very top | :13:39. | :13:45. | |
there was this gateway. I went through and I filled in all of those | :13:46. | :13:50. | |
things and at the end they asked me for ?100. Did you think you are just | :13:51. | :13:56. | |
paying the tax? I did. I could not understand is why it came out at | :13:57. | :14:02. | |
?400. I was just horrified. I was really annoyed with myself because I | :14:03. | :14:05. | |
am usually very careful. What do you think about the company? It is | :14:06. | :14:10. | |
borderline legal but it is so deceptive. I hope justice comes to | :14:11. | :14:16. | |
them. Rebecca was told she wasn't entitled to any of her money back | :14:17. | :14:19. | |
and that particular website has now suspended operations. But there are | :14:20. | :14:22. | |
many other similar companies out there, and not just for tax returns | :14:23. | :14:25. | |
but also for driving licences, European health forms, visas, and | :14:26. | :14:28. | |
passports. Trading Standards told me one man from Retford paid ?99 for | :14:29. | :14:32. | |
what he thought was a fast`track passport. To avoid these checking | :14:33. | :14:35. | |
companies, make sure you get to the official Government websites. He | :14:36. | :14:44. | |
turned up at the passport office expecting to collect his passport, | :14:45. | :14:48. | |
which he did, so that part of the service was provided. He had an | :14:49. | :14:52. | |
appointment but he was not expecting to be asked for another ?140. They | :14:53. | :14:58. | |
are not a legal? I am afraid not. With the existing legislation, at | :14:59. | :15:03. | |
the moment they are being very clever and they just keep on the | :15:04. | :15:04. | |
right 0 clever and they just keep on the | :15:05. | :15:06. | |
right side of the loss of something needs to be done if the government | :15:07. | :15:14. | |
decides to stop this. You know when you're there because they always end | :15:15. | :15:18. | |

OK. Thank you very much indeed. Beware. A Nottingham pub has been | :15:25. | :15:30. | |
forced to cancel a planned Valentine's event following | :15:31. | :15:32. | |
complaints. A barmaid at the Old Angel Inn in Hockley designed this | :15:33. | :15:35. | |
poster for an alternative speed`dating night. Nottingham City | :15:36. | :15:46. | |
Council had to intervene as the posters breached the licensing act. | :15:47. | :15:49. | |
A feminist group says that the language used was highly offensive | :15:50. | :15:52. | |
and that offering free shots of spirits to all women taking part | :15:53. | :15:56. | |
could have put some of them at risk. The references to these unpleasant | :15:57. | :15:59. | |
ways of describing women, those words are used by abusers to | :16:00. | :16:02. | |
dehumanise 0 0 words are used by abusers to | :16:03. | :16:05. | |
dehumanise women and to excuse abuse and assault. It is just a play on | :16:06. | :16:13. | |
words. And the term that I used was supposed to be empowering as much | :16:14. | :16:19. | |
as... It was not meant to offend, just to grab attention. It might be | :16:20. | :16:24. | |
safer for us not to comment on that. I was going to say there was | :16:25. | :16:30. | |
lots of sport, that it is not Friday! We do have action. Forest's | :16:31. | :16:38. | |
remarkable run continues. 14 games unbeaten and their latest win has | :16:39. | :16:42. | |
booked them a place in the FA Cup fifth round. It wasn't pretty and | :16:43. | :16:45. | |
victory against Preston North End didn't come easy. 0 | :16:46. | :16:46. | |
victory against Preston North End didn't come easy. Here's Angela. And | :16:47. | :16:54. | |
inform Nottingham Forest came up against Preston and they proved | :16:55. | :16:57. | |
tough to beat but they did enough. Jamie Mackie opened the scoring with | :16:58. | :17:02. | |
his first FA Cup goal in seven years. Worth the wait. It was not an | :17:03. | :17:12. | |
eye for the faint`hearted as the home side pushed for the equaliser. | :17:13. | :17:17. | |
They might have felt hard done by when this handball appeal was turned | :17:18. | :17:25. | |
down. What followed was an onslaught that called for desperate defending. | :17:26. | :17:29. | |
No wonder the final whistle could not come soon enough. But deep into | :17:30. | :17:34. | |
injury time, with almost the last kick, Henderson delivered this | :17:35. | :17:40. | |
strike. The better team lost the game. We scored the goals, some very | :17:41. | :17:45. | |
good goals. We defended very well. But I have to say, credit has to go | :17:46. | :17:50. | |
to the home team. They were the better team. And I think we were | :17:51. | :17:57. | |
very fortunate. Forrest will go through. Next up, Sheffield United, | :17:58. | :18:04. | |
led by Nigel Clough. It should be some showdown. Someone who won't be | :18:05. | :18:08. | |
featuring for Forest for the foreseeable future is midfielder | :18:09. | :18:11. | |
Henri Lansbury. He's been ruled out for up to three months with a | :18:12. | :18:17. | |
fractured lower back. Given Forest's run of form, little wonder that | :18:18. | :18:20. | |
their boss, Billy Davies, is nominated for the Manager of the | :18:21. | :18:24. | |
Month award for January. But he faces some tough competition 0 | :18:25. | :18:25. | |
Month award for January. But he faces some tough competition as | :18:26. | :18:26. | |
Leicester's Nigel Pearson, whose team are ten points clear at the | :18:27. | :18:30. | |
top, is also in the running. But certainly not getting carried away. | :18:31. | :18:35. | |
You know, it has been a very good month, no doubt about that. Last | :18:36. | :18:40. | |
January was very good as well. So everybody 0 | :18:41. | :18:40. | |
January was very good as well. So everybody who is here is determined | :18:41. | :18:48. | |
to push on, really, from the position we have got ourselves into. | :18:49. | :18:51. | |
Onto cricket and a first senior England call`up for | :18:52. | :18:54. | |
Nottinghamshire's Harry Gurney. The 27`year`old has been named in the | :18:55. | :18:57. | |
squad for their tour of the West Indies and could also feature at the | :18:58. | :19:01. | |
ICC World Twenty20 in Bangladesh after being named as a travelling | :19:02. | :19:04. | |
reserve. He joins Alex Hales, Michael Lumb and Stuart Broad on | :19:05. | :19:09. | |
tour. And finally, a Nottingham speed skater will be the man who | :19:10. | :19:13. | |
carries the GB flag at tomorrow's opening ceremony of the Winter | :19:14. | :19:16. | |
Olympics. Jon Eley, who's at his third Winter Olympics, says he's | :19:17. | :19:19. | |
surprised and delighted by the honour. As he arrived in Sochi, John | :19:20. | :19:28. | |
Eley thought all he had to focus on was skating. But now he has a | :19:29. | :19:32. | |
distraction. He will lead his country into the opening ceremony. | :19:33. | :19:37. | |
Fantastic, an amazing feeling and I did not expect. I got called back | :19:38. | :19:42. | |
from breakfast and I thought, have I done anything wrong? It was good | :19:43. | :19:47. | |
news. He is awarded for his experience and his chance for a | :19:48. | :19:51. | |
medal. Jack Whelbourne and Elise Christie start on Saturday. With the | :19:52. | :19:57. | |
national centre being built, we have brought a great group of guys and | :19:58. | :20:01. | |
girls together and the support we have had as truly brought this team | :20:02. | :20:05. | |
together well and it is just the hard work paying off. Walking behind | :20:06. | :20:15. | |
will be ice dance 's neck dockland and Penny Coomes. But they might | :20:16. | :20:20. | |
also have their eyes on competition. They go in the team event. `` Nick | :20:21. | :20:27. | |
Buckland. We are the luckiest people in the world. We got to compete in | :20:28. | :20:32. | |
Vancouver and we get to compete in the team event as well as the | :20:33. | :20:36. | |
individual event. It is like a dream come true all 0 | :20:37. | :20:37. | |
individual event. It is like a dream come true all over again. For Great | :20:38. | :20:42. | |
Britain, this is a Winter Olympics like never before, with hopes higher | :20:43. | :20:46. | |
than ever. John Eley's moment is a huge privilege but a challenge. My | :20:47. | :20:54. | |
arm is not my greatest strength. That will not be his focus! Know | :20:55. | :21:01. | |
that the sport has started, it will be caulking! Really good. This was a | :21:02. | :21:05. | |
very special day for the staff, parents and children at the new | :21:06. | :21:09. | |
Ashmount School in Loughborough. Not only was their ?9 million building | :21:10. | :21:12. | |
officially opened, but they also had a visit from the former Leicester | :21:13. | :21:17. | |
Tigers player Matt Hampson. Pupils from four to 19 are already enjoying | :21:18. | :21:20. | |
the new hydrotherapy pool and sensory rooms. Before the official | :21:21. | :21:26. | |
celebrations began, our reporter, Eleanor Garnier, was given a guided | :21:27. | :21:29. | |
tour by the head teacher, Dave Thomas. I must chew you the pool. We | :21:30. | :21:39. | |
are very excited. This is just fantastic. It means all of the | :21:40. | :21:44. | |
children will get at least one swim a week. This facility means children | :21:45. | :21:49. | |
that need that therapy in the pool can be 0 | :21:50. | :21:50. | |

we could have. We are so delighted. Let me show you the rest. Thank you. | :21:59. | :22:06. | |
Pupils only moved in weeks ago. Today, former Leicester Tigers rugby | :22:07. | :22:09. | |
player Matt Hanson officially opened the school. These kids deserve | :22:10. | :22:18. | |
everything they get. It is great to have a special note facility where | :22:19. | :22:27. | |

daughter. She comes home every day and tells me what she has been | :22:49. | :22:52. | |
doing. She never used to do that. A key theme is art. But professional | :22:53. | :22:59. | |
pieces and work done by the pupils. You can see how we use the space to | :23:00. | :23:04. | |
display the work at the best advantage so you get this calm | :23:05. | :23:08. | |
environment but the colour and excitement and enjoyment. That is | :23:09. | :23:12. | |
central to everything. Another room is the library. This is very | :23:13. | :23:17. | |
