This is East Midlands Today with Anne Davies and me, Dominic Heale. | :00:00. | :00:08. | |
Tonight ` Labour celebrate victory in one of our of key election battle | :00:09. | :00:15. | |
grounds. After 14 years, Labour have ousted | :00:16. | :00:21. | |
the Conservatives out of control in Amber Valley. APPLAUSE | :00:22. | :00:31. | |
. Also tonight, the whole that the High Court rules that King Richard | :00:32. | :00:36. | |
III remained. In Leicester. They will be at the heart of our | :00:37. | :00:40. | |
city and the heart but muted. Captured on a camera phone, a secret | :00:41. | :00:47. | |
visit to Nottingham by Prince Harry. In sports, it's the big match... , | :00:48. | :00:52. | |
this is Wembley and it's waiting for Derby County. Good evening and | :00:53. | :01:04. | |
welcome to the programme. In the East Midlands, Labour triumph in the | :01:05. | :01:08. | |
local elections. But their celebrations are muted ` because of | :01:09. | :01:12. | |
the impact made by UKIP. Amber Valley swung from Conservative to | :01:13. | :01:15. | |
Labour control for first time in 14 years, with the Tory leader blaming | :01:16. | :01:22. | |
what he called UKIP "interference". And in Derby, while Labour still | :01:23. | :01:27. | |
runs the city, UKIP won two seats. In North Nottinghamshire, Labour | :01:28. | :01:29. | |
kept control of Bassetlaw, and gained a seat from the | :01:30. | :01:34. | |
Conservatives. For more detail on this let's join our Political Editor | :01:35. | :01:42. | |
John Hess, who's in Amber Valley. Good evening. Let's have a look at | :01:43. | :01:52. | |
those results. Labour lost to seek to UKIP that gained two others The | :01:53. | :01:56. | |
Lib dems also lost two seats including that of Amjit Atwal ` the | :01:57. | :01:59. | |
councillor controversially pictured with an AK47 assault rifle. Hardly | :02:00. | :02:13. | |
any change in Bassetlaw. It is the Labour`controlled. It's all change | :02:14. | :02:18. | |
in labour in `` Amber Valley. Those figures do not tell the whole story | :02:19. | :02:27. | |
and the impact of the union. In top voice, jubilant Labour | :02:28. | :02:30. | |
supporters singing the Redcap micro flag. Labour secured the two seats | :02:31. | :02:37. | |
it needed to gain control from the Conservative who had run the double | :02:38. | :02:39. | |
ship Borough Council for more than 14 years. | :02:40. | :02:43. | |
We have been trying for years to get it back for stop no big breakthrough | :02:44. | :02:49. | |
for UKIP, yet the Conservatives claimed their loss on them. | :02:50. | :02:53. | |
It not what we might call a straight fight. It was not on an even playing | :02:54. | :03:01. | |
fight `` this field because of UKIP. The slender majority in this battle | :03:02. | :03:06. | |
ground seems particularly vulnerable. We will have to do what | :03:07. | :03:13. | |
we can to make it the same next year. Local and European elections | :03:14. | :03:18. | |
are not a good guide for general elections. The Liberal Democrats, | :03:19. | :03:23. | |
this is an election they will want to forget. Labour can feel | :03:24. | :03:28. | |
victorious but more in relief. It was a very lengthy night with | :03:29. | :03:33. | |
many delays. They did eventually get a result. Not an awful lot has | :03:34. | :03:40. | |
changed. However, UKIP has made a significant breakthrough, two seats | :03:41. | :03:45. | |
taken from Labour councillors. Obviously, they will be some | :03:46. | :03:50. | |
analysis of figures. UKIP took a seat from Labour, the Conservatives | :03:51. | :03:55. | |
and Liberals. Around the country, they said we just take seat from the | :03:56. | :03:59. | |
Conservative, but tonight we won Labour seats. There is no doubt we | :04:00. | :04:05. | |
have a lot to do in the city. Lots to implement. We will do. We will | :04:06. | :04:11. | |
hit the General Election Trail for the 17th of May next year. Although | :04:12. | :04:16. | |
the leadership of Derby will not change much, there is plenty of food | :04:17. | :04:21. | |
for thought for all the car `` parties for how well UKIP might do | :04:22. | :04:28. | |
in the General Election next year. How significant are the labour and | :04:29. | :04:36. | |
UKIP gains today? This is Amber Valley's council town | :04:37. | :04:42. | |
hall in Ripley. Tonight, the first time in 14 years it is now run by | :04:43. | :04:47. | |
the Labour Party. Winning those two crucial seat off the Conservatives | :04:48. | :04:51. | |
would the minimum that Labour had to do. There will be those locally and | :04:52. | :04:56. | |
nationally that will think that with a year to go into the General | :04:57. | :05:00. | |
Election, Ed Miliband 's party should be pulling much better. That | :05:01. | :05:06. | |
is the UKIP effect. Although the turnout was barely 35%, it has not | :05:07. | :05:10. | |
made the seeping games that certainly some of Nigel Farage's | :05:11. | :05:15. | |
supporters was hoping it would do. Certainly, the impact is there and | :05:16. | :05:19. | |
we will await the outcome of the Euro elections on Sunday night. | :05:20. | :05:25. | |
Whatever the outcome, and also of the Newark by`election, certainly | :05:26. | :05:31. | |
the other parties have got some worries. | :05:32. | :05:38. | |
It has been a long battle fought over 18 who famously died in battle. | :05:39. | :05:42. | |
Today came a ruling that means which the third will stay in Leicester. | :05:43. | :05:46. | |
The High Court decided that the license granted to the city to | :05:47. | :05:50. | |
reinterpret the remains found in the car park is lawful. A group of | :05:51. | :05:56. | |
dissident relatives had called free book to be his final resting place. | :05:57. | :06:02. | |
Leicester relative that they are delighted and plans for a ceremony | :06:03. | :06:06. | |
are underway. In the place where Richard III will | :06:07. | :06:12. | |
be laid to rest, Leicester finally made the announcement it had longed | :06:13. | :06:17. | |
for. If you haven't heard, the result is that the judgement. | :06:18. | :06:25. | |
The justice secretary did not have a duty to consult before issuing the | :06:26. | :06:29. | |
license to the University of Leicester, authorising his choice of | :06:30. | :06:32. | |
the cathedral for the re`interment. For the man who led the search for | :06:33. | :06:38. | |
the remains, it was vindication. I am extremely relieved. It's | :06:39. | :06:43. | |
finally over. We can move on and the cathedral can put into effect | :06:44. | :06:47. | |
planned to be very rigid with great dignity and honour. Very pleased | :06:48. | :06:50. | |
indeed. For the vanquished, defiant | :06:51. | :06:56. | |
disappointing `` disappointment. We will think about it and make some | :06:57. | :07:01. | |
decisions. I am pleased that went to court in the first place. Richard is | :07:02. | :07:06. | |
Richard of York. His heart and soul lies in York even though his body | :07:07. | :07:10. | |
lies in Leicester. Work outside the cathedral is | :07:11. | :07:15. | |
already in full swing. We designing the gardens to reposition the statue | :07:16. | :07:19. | |
of Richard III. The data is a ruling means the plans are no longer in | :07:20. | :07:22. | |
limbo. We will be working very fast indeed. | :07:23. | :07:27. | |
Building work will begin in July. The new design for the tomb will be | :07:28. | :07:32. | |
revealed in three or four weeks' time. We will `` you will recognise | :07:33. | :07:40. | |
it old but it has changed. We will work very hard as a team to make | :07:41. | :07:43. | |
sure that everything is done for Spring 2015. This will be an | :07:44. | :07:50. | |
outstanding, well`planned, civic ceremony. The nation will be | :07:51. | :07:55. | |
watching and will be work centred. No doubt, the Royal family will want | :07:56. | :07:59. | |
to be when presented. It would be an event that the people of Leicester | :08:00. | :08:02. | |
and Leicestershire can feel proud of. This extraordinary story began | :08:03. | :08:07. | |
almost two years ago when originally said's remains were dug up in his | :08:08. | :08:11. | |
council car park. The new visitor centre behind me will be opened by | :08:12. | :08:16. | |
July. By next spring, a stone's throw from where he was originally | :08:17. | :08:21. | |
buried, the anointed king will be reinterred with dignity and honour. | :08:22. | :08:33. | |
From King Richard, to Prince Harry. Later in the programme, the fourth | :08:34. | :08:36. | |
in line to the throne makes a private visit to our region. Camera | :08:37. | :08:43. | |
phone pictures show his surprise appearance at a recording studio in | :08:44. | :08:47. | |
inner`city Nottingham. It is time for another bank holiday | :08:48. | :08:52. | |
weekend. Typically my forecast include some rain and thunder and | :08:53. | :08:58. | |
sunshine. There is even a weather warning. | :08:59. | :09:08. | |
Next: Sending energy to the Middle East from the East Midlands. It | :09:09. | :09:12. | |
sounds like sending polls to Newcastle but it is happening. An | :09:13. | :09:19. | |
environmental waste company in Nottingham has landed a major deal | :09:20. | :09:24. | |
with United Arab error `` emirates for a power that makes renewable | :09:25. | :09:30. | |
power. Doing a visit to Chinook Sciences, it was said that a hundred | :09:31. | :09:39. | |
`` many jobs will be the created. A big day and big business for this | :09:40. | :09:44. | |
Nottingham company. The tread minister, Lord Livingston, announced | :09:45. | :09:51. | |
a major deal. This contract will build one of the world 's largest | :09:52. | :09:57. | |
waste gas facilities. The plant will process a wide range of waste and | :09:58. | :10:00. | |
recycling residues. It would be manufactured here and | :10:01. | :10:07. | |
assembled in the UAE. It will process materials which help to | :10:08. | :10:13. | |
create renewable energy. It's going to create or safeguard 850 jobs | :10:14. | :10:21. | |
across the UK. It is an area where the UK science is absolutely | :10:22. | :10:25. | |
leading. It's good for the Ryman and for jobs. It is good Nottingham in | :10:26. | :10:32. | |
particular. `` environment. It will create 100 jobs in this | :10:33. | :10:35. | |
region and that your hundreds of others. We have been fortunate to | :10:36. | :10:42. | |
have excellent suppliers in the East Midlands. It's a happy day for them. | :10:43. | :10:48. | |
It means sustainability and it will secure jobs. This is the first major | :10:49. | :10:54. | |
deals with the government announced a new programme of investment and | :10:55. | :10:57. | |
medium`sized businesses. The East Midlands is the first region to | :10:58. | :11:01. | |
benefit. It'd hope that it will showcase Nottingham as a centre of | :11:02. | :11:08. | |
high`tech expertise. A teenager charged with four counts | :11:09. | :11:13. | |
of murder has admitted sending a message after the fire talking about | :11:14. | :11:18. | |
killing. Nathaniel Mullings denies, along with seven others, being | :11:19. | :11:24. | |
responsible for an Arsenal `` arson attack which killed men was a | :11:25. | :11:29. | |
bittersweet family. I've failed to kill everyone. The city was upset | :11:30. | :11:37. | |
and angry about the stabbing of his friend and one at bomb earlier that | :11:38. | :11:50. | |
evening. `` Akpom. A fairground operator has pleaded guilty after | :11:51. | :11:53. | |

Nottingham has reopened after a revamp costing more than six and a | :12:16. | :12:21. | |
half million pounds. It's not just for elite athletes. There are plenty | :12:22. | :12:26. | |
of attractions including a hybrid course, minigolf, cycling and Segway | :12:27. | :12:33. | |
higher. The work has taken 12 months to complete. | :12:34. | :12:37. | |
We have already seen local people coming in saying how improved it is. | :12:38. | :12:42. | |
The whole point was to make it more accessible. Previously, it was a | :12:43. | :12:45. | |
National Sports Centre. It's not elite. So many people in Nottingham | :12:46. | :12:52. | |
have not been here. We wanted to be a place that people can come and | :12:53. | :12:56. | |
enjoy themselves. A man who attacked the leader of a | :12:57. | :12:59. | |
seek spiritual movement with an axe in a Leicester Temple has been found | :13:00. | :13:03. | |
guilty of attempted needle `` the murder. He admitted he had been | :13:04. | :13:11. | |
consumed by hatred by a man loan by `` ring known by many as a leading | :13:12. | :13:16. | |
guru. He alleged the man had sexually abused as a child. | :13:17. | :13:25. | |
CCTV captures him by the biggest and scariest looking axe at a Leicester | :13:26. | :13:28. | |
store. Three days later the 27`year`old was seen walking to the | :13:29. | :13:32. | |
temple with the three foot axe concealed under a shawl. His target | :13:33. | :13:39. | |
was his Holiness, the world leader of the man Dari seeks who was in | :13:40. | :13:43. | |
Leicester as part of an official visit to the UK. He swung the axe | :13:44. | :13:51. | |
and cut his face and broke his arm. Someone who witnessed the attack | :13:52. | :13:54. | |
last August, because the moment it happened. | :13:55. | :13:58. | |
To season one job with an axe onto the stage. Everyone was up and | :13:59. | :14:03. | |
running to the stage to see if his Holiness was alive. To see someone | :14:04. | :14:07. | |
singing and act on his Holiness's head was frightening. The whole | :14:08. | :14:11. | |
community was crying. They also the crying. The children started | :14:12. | :14:15. | |
crying. The bank worker claimed he had been | :14:16. | :14:18. | |
strictly abused as HR world in India by the rigidly leader `` religious | :14:19. | :14:25. | |
leader in the 1990s. The guru repeatedly denied this. He said he | :14:26. | :14:31. | |
only intended to hurt him. The CPS said it was a vicious assassination | :14:32. | :14:36. | |
attempt on a defenceless man. Today at Birmingham Crown Court, he was | :14:37. | :14:41. | |
jailed for 17 years, nearly nine months on from the attack many of | :14:42. | :14:45. | |
the temple's conservation are still haunted by what they saw. | :14:46. | :14:56. | |
No one expected it, but it made a lot of young people very happy. | :14:57. | :14:58. | |
Prince Harry made an unannounced visit to a youth centre in | :14:59. | :15:02. | |
inner`city Nottingham. The prince joined children on the music and | :15:03. | :15:07. | |
film project in sedans. `` Saint Anne 's. | :15:08. | :15:14. | |
This is where the prince turned up completely out of the blue. Staff | :15:15. | :15:17. | |
were expected to meet officials from his charity, but Harry decided to | :15:18. | :15:25. | |
join them. He is no stranger here. Last he made an official royal visit | :15:26. | :15:32. | |
here. He was finalising plans to fund three years of youth work year. | :15:33. | :15:38. | |
Today, he came back for a private visit. At the garage across the | :15:39. | :15:42. | |
road, you can imagine how surprised they were. Paul and Anthony managed | :15:43. | :15:45. | |
to get in snaps. It was a bit of a shock. A massive | :15:46. | :15:52. | |
secret. It is not something you would expect to see when you come to | :15:53. | :15:55. | |
work in the morning. It was a bit of a surprise. I am told Harry spent a | :15:56. | :16:02. | |
good couple of hours here. He spent time with youngsters from Huntingdon | :16:03. | :16:05. | |
primary School, sitting on a film course and having a go on a bass | :16:06. | :16:11. | |
guitar. He also delivered on a promise to record some words for a | :16:12. | :16:15. | |
track of some local musicians. It's pretty clear that Harry is taking a | :16:16. | :16:16. | |
real interest in what is happening you tomorrow. McLaren and Redknapp. | :16:17. | :17:14. | |
Buxton, Keogh and grant. Barker and Derby full stop Derby berserker fans | :17:15. | :17:23. | |
too. Steve versus Harry at the world's | :17:24. | :17:30. | |
most famous stadium. The former England manager McLaren is ingrained | :17:31. | :17:35. | |
in Derby berserker history against Redknapp. He is the experienced, | :17:36. | :17:42. | |
wheeler dealer warhorse who need to go up. There is a lot of pressure on | :17:43. | :17:48. | |
Queens Park Rangers. We want to try to get back in the Premier League. | :17:49. | :17:53. | |
We want to win that game. It is the richest game in football. From | :17:54. | :17:56. | |
Sam Oldham, who goes into the team final on Saturday. A real chance of | :17:57. | :19:39. | |
medals there. There is also T20 cricket. | :19:40. | :19:43. | |
This is where the Going back almost 50 years. Johnny | :19:44. | :23:55. | |
Johnson rings the bell at Highfield School. He was a teacher here in the | :23:56. | :24:01. | |
1960s for five years after his wartime and post`war experience in | :24:02. | :24:05. | |
the RAF. He returned the Newark school to answer questions and today | :24:06. | :24:09. | |
berserker pupils. Speaking of his most famous moment in the legendary | :24:10. | :24:17. | |
Dambuster raid in 1943. What was it like being part of the cat must grow | :24:18. | :24:26. | |
`` dambusters? We didn't know what we were going to do all what the | :24:27. | :24:31. | |
target was until the day of the briefing. MUSIC PLAYS | :24:32. | :24:42. | |
Also there, the low flier who took part in the film. | :24:43. | :24:49. | |
60 feet, 30 tonne of aeroplane. That is low, it was exciting and | :24:50. | :24:53. | |
frightening. What it must have been like doing the real thing in the | :24:54. | :24:57. | |
dark and being shot at, I have no idea. | :24:58. | :25:03. | |
Afterward the school, parents and Jenny Johnson's former pupils | :25:04. | :25:05. | |
gathered outside and talked about his future book. Today it will never | :25:06. | :25:12. | |
be anything other than the school for me. It is absolutely awesome. | :25:13. | :25:23. | |
Yes, he is Dambusters a hero but he is my teacher. I have never | :25:24. | :25:29. | |
forgotten him. The highlight, a fly past by two RAF planes. Eight to | :25:30. | :25:34. | |
coat of Johnny's own wartime vintage. `` Dakota. | :25:35. | :25:57. | |
There is something else happening this weekend. There is a certain | :25:58. | :26:03. | |
football match happening. If you are going to support the rams, allow for | :26:04. | :26:07. | |
some extra rain and thundery showers. Even during the game. Full | :26:08. | :26:12. | |
coverage and commentary on the radio. It is of course another bank | :26:13. | :26:19. | |
holiday weekend. As you would expect, there will be some shout was | :26:20. | :26:25. | |
around and some sunshine. It will feel a little bit warm, especially | :26:26. | :26:30. | |
on Sunday. We got away with the fairly dry day today. There has been | :26:31. | :26:32. | |
a little bit of rain edging into parts of Leicestershire and | :26:33. | :26:36. | |
Derbyshire in the last few hours. There is a little bit of rain | :26:37. | :26:40. | |
around. Before that. Tearaway. Then, it would be largely dry. More in the | :26:41. | :26:50. | |
way of cloud pushing in from the south as we headed toward dawn. | :26:51. | :26:54. | |
Those of 10 Celsius. Tomorrow morning there will be heavy | :26:55. | :26:59. | |
rainfall. There is a yellow warning. Potential of 30 millimetres of rain. | :27:00. | :27:05. | |
Seth is what may be an issue. Here's rain arriving. Possibly thundery for | :27:06. | :27:09. | |
a time. It will clear away to the North. Behind it, every thundery | :27:10. | :27:15. | |
showers. Also some dry and bright spells. Feeling a little bit fresher | :27:16. | :27:24. | |
with 15 and 16 degrees. Sunday will be largely dry and bright in the | :27:25. | :27:32. | |
afternoon. Bank holiday Monday, just allow forces gathered to heavy | :27:33. | :27:33. | |
showers. Dry at times. Let's look at the history | :27:34. | :27:43. | |
of BBC TWO with me, Simon Schama. | :27:44. | :28:02. |
