described as one of the biggest But this evening, David Camdron has | :01:00. | :01:02. | |
his new ministerial team in place. Two days of hiring and firing has | :01:03. | :01:08. | |
resulted in significant movds both up ` and down ` for some of our | :01:09. | :01:11. | |

Cameron's ministerial changds were full of surprizes today. I suspect | :01:57. | :02:01. | |
no`one, not even Nicky Morg`n herself expected to be moved to the | :02:02. | :02:06. | |
Department of Education. Here her constituency staff were mord than | :02:07. | :02:09. | |
pleasantly surprised. They weren't the only ones welcoming a change at | :02:10. | :02:11. | |
the top. Little wonder Niki Morgan | :02:12. | :02:15. | |
was smiling in her way into Downing Street. Education Sdcretary | :02:16. | :02:17. | |
is a big, high`profile job `nd after a last week's national strike by | :02:18. | :02:20. | |
many teachers, the Prime Minister may want some fence`mending with the | :02:21. | :02:23. | |
teaching profession. Only a few months ago, Michael Gove was | :02:24. | :02:25. | |
visiting a school in her Loughborough constituency. Perhaps | :02:26. | :02:28. | |
someone should have warned him ` look behind you. And this praise | :02:29. | :02:30. | |
from another minister on thd move. Nicky Morgan is a great belhever | :02:31. | :02:34. | |

Anna Soubry, up the Ministry of Defence, where she is | :02:45. | :02:47. | |
now second to the new Defence Secretary. Moving on and out of | :02:48. | :02:53. | |
Government is Rushcliffe's Ken Clarke, | :02:54. | :02:56. | |
today he explained his reasons. Minister. I have been a minhster for | :02:57. | :03:01. | |
several decades. I have been a minister for longer than anx man now | :03:02. | :03:05. | |
living. They are things I normally don't stress because it makds you | :03:06. | :03:09. | |
sound as old as the hills. @lso gone, Alan Duncan, the Rutl`nd and | :03:10. | :03:12. | |
Melton MP. He had been International Development Minister since the 010 | :03:13. | :03:15. | |
general election. Also gone, is Andrew Robeson, the MP for South | :03:16. | :03:17. | |
Leicestershire. He was the Northern Ireland minister. Keeping fht. So | :03:18. | :03:20. | |
what type of Education Secrdtary Morgan make? She likes the running. | :03:21. | :03:22. | |
The education establishment may find Well, Nicky Morgan had little time | :03:23. | :03:25. | |
to say goodbye to her former colleagues at the Treasury, | :03:26. | :03:47. | |
where she was a minister. On Monday, she faces the Hotse | :03:48. | :03:50. | |
of Commons for her first Qudstion Maybe that explains why she hasn't | :03:51. | :04:04. | |
been able for interviews to talk about her early priorities. | :04:05. | :04:05. | |
So what do the teachers expdct from her? | :04:06. | :04:09. | |
I'd say to her ` get around a table. Talk to the teaching professionals. | :04:10. | :04:16. | |
Talk to leaders of the teaching trade unions and really think about | :04:17. | :04:20. | |
where our education system hs going. Is it the right thing that ht should | :04:21. | :04:24. | |
be privatised into academies and free schools or should we h`ve a | :04:25. | :04:27. | |
national system which is about the children and their education, first | :04:28. | :04:28. | |
and foremost. Unlike Ken Clarke's Rushcliffe, | :04:29. | :04:35. | |
Loughborough is one of the lost That Cabinet seat will be | :04:36. | :04:40. | |
politically worthless, if Nhcky Ken Clarke has freely admitted he | :04:41. | :04:45. | |
was feeling a little "demob happy" prior to being | :04:46. | :04:54. | |
reshuffled out of office. He told me earlier that he won't | :04:55. | :04:58. | |
miss the endless stream of ministerial red boxes ` | :04:59. | :05:01. | |
but will still play an active role I enjoyed being a backbenchdr when I | :05:02. | :05:15. | |
last left the front bench, `fter we left office in 1997 when he declined | :05:16. | :05:22. | |
the chance to be on the shadow bench. I enjoyed the last ydars in | :05:23. | :05:28. | |
Government in opposition. Think I shall enjoy being a backbench | :05:29. | :05:34. | |
government MP. You advise you will be happy to offer advice from the | :05:35. | :05:40. | |
backbenches. Will you be a back seat driver? You represent your | :05:41. | :05:43. | |
constituents and give what xou think is the right advice in the national | :05:44. | :05:47. | |
interest. That's what I reg`rd Parliament for, actually. I quite | :05:48. | :05:51. | |
enjoy doing that. Obviously for most of my life I have enjoyed bding in | :05:52. | :05:54. | |
Government, actually contributing and doing a proper job of work and | :05:55. | :05:58. | |
do something about some serhous problems, trying to help make a | :05:59. | :06:01. | |
small contribution to the bdtter Government of the country. Hn terms | :06:02. | :06:06. | |
of the reshuffle what is yotr view of the cull of the middle`aged men | :06:07. | :06:14. | |
in suits and bringing in more women? No Prime Minister I have worked for | :06:15. | :06:20. | |
has had a reshuffle where I have agreed with every bit. I am sorry | :06:21. | :06:25. | |
for some of my friends and delighted or others. What he is trying to put | :06:26. | :06:29. | |
together is the Government he would like to form after the next | :06:30. | :06:32. | |
election, here is an indication of what it would look like, and these | :06:33. | :06:36. | |
people have ten months to show they are up to the job, which by in large | :06:37. | :06:41. | |
they undoubtedly are. More time for you, to indulge your hobbies? Joy of | :06:42. | :06:46. | |
jazz, and bird`watching and so on? I don't neglect them when I w`s in | :06:47. | :06:51. | |
office. It was tricky when H was the Chancellor of the Exchequer and when | :06:52. | :06:54. | |
I was at the Department of Health because it is fairly lively, but, | :06:55. | :06:58. | |
yes, I do think it is quite important to have something to relax | :06:59. | :07:01. | |
at outside. The things I enjoy are things which I'm so absorbed in I | :07:02. | :07:05. | |
take my mind all away from politics and Government. It is all rhght for | :07:06. | :07:09. | |
a bit and then I'm actually, as much an addict of politics and Government | :07:10. | :07:14. | |
as I was when I started. I dnjoy the House of Commons as mucheses as I | :07:15. | :07:18. | |
did the first day when I walked through the job. I will keep a | :07:19. | :07:22. | |
balance but a bit more cricket will be welcome, particularly with the | :07:23. | :07:24. | |
weather stays like this. Th`nk you for talking to us and good luck | :07:25. | :07:37. | |
Critics have been invited inside to challenge county council's plans but | :07:38. | :07:43. | |
left unsatisfied. Derbyshird people need those resources and thdy have | :07:44. | :07:44. | |
been stolen. One of our police forces is | :07:45. | :08:01. | |
testing powerful new technology It's able to identify suspects ` | :08:02. | :08:04. | |
who've been caught on camer` ` Leicestershire Police say it could | :08:05. | :08:09. | |
transform Our Social Affairs Correspondent, | :08:10. | :08:11. | |
Jeremy Ball, reports. CCTV has become a vital part of | :08:12. | :08:18. | |
police investigations. Foot`ge that shows who is at the scene of a crime | :08:19. | :08:21. | |
but identifying the suspects can take weeks of detective work. Now, | :08:22. | :08:27. | |
though, Hilary can find a m`tch in seconds using this new faci`l | :08:28. | :08:29. | |
recognition software. This demonstration shows how polhce | :08:30. | :08:33. | |
employee is picked out from a data base of every suspect whose picture | :08:34. | :08:38. | |
is on the force computer system T can even spot family members with | :08:39. | :08:43. | |
similar facial features. It is amazing of sorting through 82,0 0 | :08:44. | :08:47. | |
images in a matter of moments. It will be such a useful tool for | :08:48. | :08:53. | |
office out on the beat T cotld be low level shoplifting to murder | :08:54. | :08:58. | |
scenes. They are checking footage from these | :08:59. | :09:03. | |
new body`worn cameras, as wdll as shops, buses and sports grotnds The | :09:04. | :09:07. | |
results can't be used as evhdence in court but the trial has alrdady | :09:08. | :09:11. | |
identified around 100 suspects. That has potentially saved us tens of | :09:12. | :09:15. | |
thousands of hours sifting through photographs. It may well have found | :09:16. | :09:19. | |
individuals who might never have been brought to justice before. It | :09:20. | :09:22. | |
makes a huge difference. Sole people will be worried, won't they, that it | :09:23. | :09:29. | |
is a bit big brother? Powerful technology that can affect people's | :09:30. | :09:34. | |
lives. It is an important qtestion and one which I'm glad you have | :09:35. | :09:40. | |
asked. Searching the data b`se of people we have arrested and we have | :09:41. | :09:43. | |
lawfully got their photograph. Nothing else. Leicestershird police | :09:44. | :09:47. | |
think this is more advanced than anywhere else in the world `lthough | :09:48. | :09:51. | |
it is only a trial. It is already attracting interest from other | :09:52. | :09:54. | |
forces as far afield as France and Romania. | :09:55. | :09:58. | |
In recent days council leaddrs in Derbyshire have been spelling out | :09:59. | :10:01. | |
where the axe will have to fall if they're to complete ?150 million | :10:02. | :10:04. | |
worth of cuts within the next three years. | :10:05. | :10:07. | |
The cuts have been described as the toughest in the county's history. | :10:08. | :10:11. | |
But today protestors got thdir chance to challenge those who will | :10:12. | :10:15. | |
make the final decision. Here's our Chief News Reporter, Quentin Rayner. | :10:16. | :10:26. | |
Before their meeting Derbyshire s Cabinet was left in no doubt about | :10:27. | :10:31. | |
the passionate opposition to the cuts Across housing`related support | :10:32. | :10:35. | |
aLen, ?9 million over the ndxt few years, which effectively is | :10:36. | :10:39. | |
two`thirds of the budget of those services. For our service, we are | :10:40. | :10:43. | |
look ing at 85% cuts. What this means in real terms is going with | :10:44. | :10:48. | |
working from 400 young people to over a year to actually 40 for the | :10:49. | :10:52. | |
whole of Derbyshire. What a contrast in the corridors of power in the | :10:53. | :10:56. | |
county council headquarters N this room schoolchildren from across the | :10:57. | :11:00. | |
county promoting what they say is the brilliance of Derbyshird. Across | :11:01. | :11:04. | |
the corridor here, in committee room 1, the Cabinet is holding a public | :11:05. | :11:10. | |
meeting to explain ?157 million of cuts. | :11:11. | :11:16. | |
Out of all the 64 councillors to take this seriously. How will | :11:17. | :11:22. | |
Derbyshire County Council ftlfil their responsibilities? We have | :11:23. | :11:25. | |
very, very little money left now to run council services. So, what do | :11:26. | :11:30. | |
the protesters think about what they were told? There was nothing | :11:31. | :11:34. | |
entirely that was reassuring. I think they will be going ahdad with | :11:35. | :11:39. | |
these cuts. At the moment it is 50% cuts, which is significant. I would | :11:40. | :11:45. | |
like them all to do a lot more and to show how you angry they `re and | :11:46. | :11:52. | |
protect our services. Peopld need to understand the constraints we have | :11:53. | :11:55. | |
to work within as well and H hope they have managed to take away the | :11:56. | :12:00. | |
work we are doing to limit the pain caused by the cuts. Now the | :12:01. | :12:02. | |
consultation begins before final decisions in the autumn. | :12:03. | :12:13. | |
Police discovered a cannabis farm as a result of a public campaign using | :12:14. | :12:16. | |
The cards were recently handed out so people could discover wh`t | :12:17. | :12:20. | |
cannabis smells like. A member of the public tipped off the police | :12:21. | :12:22. | |
about a house in Mansfield. Today officers raided it and found 40 | :12:23. | :12:25. | |
plants with an estimated street value of just under ?250,000. | :12:26. | :12:29. | |
A Derbyshire man was today jailed for 16 months for tax fraud. | :12:30. | :12:32. | |
30`year`old Danny Peat, previously known as Daniel Twells, | :12:33. | :12:34. | |
from Alfreton, had attempted to claim ?120,000 | :12:35. | :12:36. | |
He made false claims in onlhne Self Assessment tax returns. | :12:37. | :12:50. | |
It's not even opened yet ` but around 800 tickets have already | :12:51. | :12:56. | |
been sold for the new King Richard III visitor centre in Leicester | :12:57. | :13:00. | |
The old Leicester Grammar School building at St Martin's Place is | :13:01. | :13:03. | |
being transformed into two floors of exhibition space, | :13:04. | :13:05. | |
telling the story of the King who was found in the nearby car park. | :13:06. | :13:08. | |
It's a global phenomenon in the cycling community th`t's now | :13:09. | :13:15. | |
What's believed to be the rdgion's first white`painted "ghostbhke" | :13:16. | :13:23. | |
has been left at the scene of a crash in which a cyclist died. | :13:24. | :13:26. | |
People working nearby say it highlights the need | :13:27. | :13:28. | |
From Nottingham, Mike O'Sullivan reports. | :13:29. | :13:35. | |
Traffic passes by a ghostbike left anonymously at a busy road zblunges | :13:36. | :13:43. | |
Nottingham. Painted white, ` tribute to a cyclist who died in a road | :13:44. | :13:48. | |
collision at the junction of Lower Parliament Street and Penniford | :13:49. | :13:53. | |
Street earlier this month. Ht'll remind people of how unsafe the | :13:54. | :13:58. | |
roads are for cyclists. It hs really bad. It is a nice memorial. There is | :13:59. | :14:03. | |
a lot of dangerous roads around here for cyclists. It is a tragedy what | :14:04. | :14:08. | |
happened but I think it is laking a good statement towards people riding | :14:09. | :14:12. | |
a bike and the attitude of when they are using the roads. 29`year`old | :14:13. | :14:16. | |
Louise Wright was fatally injured after being in collision with a | :14:17. | :14:24. | |
Greene King delivery lorry `t 8 30 am. She was a robe of the Nottingham | :14:25. | :14:30. | |
Roller Girls Roller Derby tdam and worked for Paul Smith in thd City. | :14:31. | :14:33. | |
The business, right next to the accident scene has also left a | :14:34. | :14:37. | |
tribute. Staff would like to see road safety improvements at the | :14:38. | :14:41. | |
junction. Some had mixed fedlings about the ghostbike. I dare say most | :14:42. | :14:46. | |
people were touched. There were a few mixed reactions about whether it | :14:47. | :14:50. | |
was tasteless or not. Personally I think it is a good idea to raise | :14:51. | :14:54. | |
awareness of what is happenhng at that junction. Louise's boyfriend | :14:55. | :14:59. | |
James Faulkner told the BBC he hopes the ghostbike will help to prevent | :15:00. | :15:04. | |
another tragedy. The City Council says it'll have to consider whether | :15:05. | :15:08. | |
it is creating an obstacle for pedestrians. | :15:09. | :15:21. | |
Next a woman has told us how she spent ?5,000 on health care | :15:22. | :15:25. | |
needlessly because of anxieties with her health. She looked up hdr | :15:26. | :15:36. | |
symptoms on the internetted. It is called cyberchoondria. | :15:37. | :15:41. | |
Paul Bradshaw has had report. Recognition for a job well done | :15:42. | :15:48. | |
These two nurse has exceeded all expectations in the treatment of | :15:49. | :15:51. | |
health anxiety at Kingsmill Hospital during a recent study into the | :15:52. | :15:56. | |
illness. Some people become house bound actually because of these | :15:57. | :16:01. | |
fears and, of course, it is baying cost to the health service `s well. | :16:02. | :16:06. | |
`` a big cost. There needs to be provision for them. This sttdy has | :16:07. | :16:09. | |
shown this works, it is cost effective and easy to delivdr and we | :16:10. | :16:12. | |
need to proviewed services. Health anxiety has been recognised for | :16:13. | :16:16. | |
years but now, it seems, patients using the internet to diagnose | :16:17. | :16:21. | |
themselves is making the problem far worse. Whereas with the doctor you | :16:22. | :16:26. | |
have to make an appointment for you don't have to make an appointment at | :16:27. | :16:30. | |
the internet. You can look `t it for hours every day. Unfortunatdly in | :16:31. | :16:34. | |
this condition, you actuallx have people who do spend hours on the | :16:35. | :16:38. | |
internet and it magnifies their symptoms because the worst | :16:39. | :16:41. | |
conditions are always the ones they see first. Mary Wyatt suffered from | :16:42. | :16:49. | |
cyber chondria for years. She said the illness made her feel she was | :16:50. | :16:55. | |
wasting her GPs' time. I was paying privately to see consultants. I | :16:56. | :16:58. | |
thought I would be draining the NHS. Also, you feel guilty. Becatse | :16:59. | :17:05. | |
doctors say ` there is nothhng wrong with you, but you feel diffdrently. | :17:06. | :17:08. | |
You get reassurance, which doesn't work. I must have spent abott | :17:09. | :17:12. | |
?5,000, I think in private health care. There is no provision for | :17:13. | :17:18. | |
treating health anxiety in the health service at present btt it is | :17:19. | :17:21. | |
hoped, following the results of this study, that will soon changd. | :17:22. | :17:28. | |
Sport now and a big event, this week is the Open from golf. Todax is | :17:29. | :17:40. | |
practice day and Colin has gone to Liverpool to see if former world | :17:41. | :17:43. | |
number one, Lee Westwood can recapture his form. Lee Westwood is | :17:44. | :17:49. | |
the question. The answer cotld, maybe be the Royal Liverpool | :17:50. | :17:53. | |
Hoylake, the scene of the Open. Magnificent today in the sunshine. | :17:54. | :17:58. | |
He has to play amidst of all this talent. At the moment he is not the | :17:59. | :18:04. | |
man in form. Not making the cut in the build`up and the final two | :18:05. | :18:06. | |
rounds. Looking for inspiration here. Can he do it? Let's ask the | :18:07. | :18:12. | |
BBC's golf correspondent. Lde Westwood? Can he rejuvenate things?. | :18:13. | :18:17. | |
If you don't get inspired hdre, you are struggling. But it has been a | :18:18. | :18:22. | |
tough year for him. Around the time of the Masters he was showing prop | :18:23. | :18:27. | |
Issing signs with his new coach and felt things were working. `` | :18:28. | :18:33. | |
promising signs. That brings frustration and erodes confhdence. | :18:34. | :18:36. | |
We will see him on the practice round. One man in form is Jtstin | :18:37. | :18:41. | |
Rose, winner of the Scottish Open. In a way we saw him first. 21 years | :18:42. | :18:50. | |
ago he was a junior winning the mow Tringous junior open at Radcliffe. | :18:51. | :18:56. | |
This event stwarted this morning. `` winning the prestigious. Back in | :18:57. | :19:02. | |
1993 Justin Rose was 12, thd youngest competitor at the | :19:03. | :19:05. | |
tournament but already playhng off five. Two years later at 14, he won | :19:06. | :19:10. | |
it. Now he is doing rather well for himself, winning the Scottish Open | :19:11. | :19:14. | |
at the weekend. He is one of England's top players, now looking | :19:15. | :19:19. | |
forward to the Open. Today's McGregor trophy features 40 overseas | :19:20. | :19:24. | |
players out of 144. There is a strong international field but are | :19:25. | :19:30. | |
there any budding Roses? Thdy put on a fantastic event. Parents `re | :19:31. | :19:37. | |
supporting them. No doubt you will find a Major winner here. | :19:38. | :19:43. | |
One has come from China to compete. Others have had a shorter trip. The | :19:44. | :19:50. | |
dream is to try to make it. On the tee, Joshua Taylor from Mill Green | :19:51. | :19:56. | |
golf club. The McGregor Trophy started in | :19:57. | :20:00. | |
Radcliffe in 1982 and now it returns here every five years. It's note a | :20:01. | :20:06. | |
Birkdale or a Hoylake but it has a heart that cares about this event | :20:07. | :20:11. | |
and as long as it does that, I'm sure England Golf will keep coming | :20:12. | :20:17. | |
back. It has grown and grown, it is now recognised as the worldwide | :20:18. | :20:22. | |
event for boys of this age to play in. This is where it starts at small | :20:23. | :20:27. | |
clubs, they go to their counties, they develop and next thing we say | :20:28. | :20:32. | |
them in the Ryder Cup. It is great to see them at the peak of their | :20:33. | :20:37. | |
sport. I love playing golf. Sadly, the only bit I'm any good at is the | :20:38. | :20:42. | |
driving. So, while Rose rises fulfilling | :20:43. | :20:47. | |
potential, Westwood wonders if this is the tournament where he can | :20:48. | :20:52. | |
rejuvenate. This is a huge dvent. The Commonwealth Games is also on | :20:53. | :20:55. | |
the way up in Glasgow. Lots of athletes looking forward to this. | :20:56. | :20:59. | |
Many from the East Midlands and many of whom, who have had for ydars to | :21:00. | :21:05. | |
juggle fulltime job was thehr hobby, looking for galory. Angela has been | :21:06. | :21:11. | |
to meet one of them. So I'm an A doctor, I work at | :21:12. | :21:17. | |
Queens Medical Centre. I'm on a rotation where we r rotate `round | :21:18. | :21:21. | |
different hospitals in the Dast Midlands. I started shooting when I | :21:22. | :21:26. | |
was about 15 or 16. It is something I started to do and enjoyed it. Then | :21:27. | :21:31. | |
I realised in a you could go to the Olympics with shooting. So H thought | :21:32. | :21:36. | |
I would really love to compdte at a high level with my shooting to a | :21:37. | :21:39. | |
persevered and kept practishng and went to the Commonwealth Gales in | :21:40. | :21:45. | |
2006. Melbourne was magic for Rachael Parish. A be incredhble | :21:46. | :21:49. | |
experience. You cannot buy the memories to. Win a gold and silver | :21:50. | :21:54. | |
was fantastic. What followed was years as frustration as womdn's | :21:55. | :21:57. | |
trouble trap was dropped from major events. | :21:58. | :22:01. | |
It's been very frustrating ht was taken out of the Olympics and out of | :22:02. | :22:05. | |
the Commonwealth Games for Delhi, to the point where I had stoppdd | :22:06. | :22:08. | |
shooting completely for abott 1 months. It's very exciting that it | :22:09. | :22:12. | |
is back in again. It's been an eight`year wait for the | :22:13. | :22:16. | |
sharp`shooting doctor, kermdd to do her best. Its a bit of a ugh Joel | :22:17. | :22:22. | |
and struggle occasionally. `` it's a bit of a juggle and struggld. Adding | :22:23. | :22:31. | |
to her medal tally, the medhc has her eyes on the prize. | :22:32. | :22:35. | |
A couple of quick bits of sports news. A new signing for Nottingham | :22:36. | :22:41. | |
Roberts. The captain of Barcelona's xouth | :22:42. | :22:47. | |
team is signed in. Lots of drama in the cricket, too. | :22:48. | :22:52. | |
You can catch up with that on the BBC Sport website. Notts ch`sing the | :22:53. | :22:56. | |
county Championship. I want to show you this before we G this is the | :22:57. | :22:59. | |
media compound here at the Open Half the world's media feels like it | :23:00. | :23:04. | |
is here, as long with what feels like half the world's cranes. You | :23:05. | :23:09. | |
can follow it online and on TV and radio. We, of course will bd | :23:10. | :23:13. | |
watching Lee Westwood. Now, we stay with a sporting theme | :23:14. | :23:17. | |
and these are encouraging d`ys for a firm which began life on a farm in | :23:18. | :23:24. | |
the Derbyshire countryside. . The company has moved to much l`rger | :23:25. | :23:28. | |
premises and doubled its workforce. Believe it or not it is thanks to | :23:29. | :23:33. | |
the recent global recession. For the second in of Made in the East | :23:34. | :23:39. | |
Midlands series, we report now from Belpar. | :23:40. | :23:42. | |
It starts life as a Land Rover but when it leaves here it is a Bowl | :23:43. | :23:50. | |
per. This small factory is one of the biggest names in off`ro`d motor | :23:51. | :23:54. | |
sports. We move the engine further back and lower down for centre of | :23:55. | :23:58. | |
gravity reasons. We put our own suspension on there. We essdntially | :23:59. | :24:03. | |
change everything underneath the car but retain the strength of the | :24:04. | :24:06. | |
original Land Rover chassis. It does its job ` which is to go fast for a | :24:07. | :24:11. | |
long period of time across very inhospitable terrains. Among the | :24:12. | :24:17. | |
firm's biggest fans, the Top Gear presenter, Richard Hammond. | :24:18. | :24:22. | |
! How can anything survive this But it almost didn't survive thd | :24:23. | :24:26. | |
financial crash. When the world changed in 2008/9 we decided that | :24:27. | :24:31. | |
our car was fundamentally good and the engineering was fantasthc but we | :24:32. | :24:34. | |
needed to move into a different direction. So we took what we | :24:35. | :24:38. | |
thought was a great car, thd rally car and decided to make it ` road | :24:39. | :24:46. | |
version. This is the EXRS otr road`going car a version of this | :24:47. | :24:49. | |
rally car, which is built for customers who want a noisy, fast, | :24:50. | :24:53. | |
exciting car. This is a competition car. I had the pleasure of filling | :24:54. | :24:57. | |
this up the other day, it is ?5 00. To fill it up. Not cheap. `` ?5 0. | :24:58. | :25:06. | |
This not cheap it buy. ?1 86,00 . Really? Including VAT It is not | :25:07. | :25:11. | |
unusual for people to spend that. You cannot buy a Ferrari for less | :25:12. | :25:15. | |
that than. Where has this bden racing? Morocco, Tunisia, Algeria. | :25:16. | :25:21. | |
We race in Spain, lit I, Fr`nce Anywhere that there is the | :25:22. | :25:25. | |
opportunity to do high`speed off`road driving. In recent months | :25:26. | :25:30. | |
it has had to move here to keep up with demand. We have doubled our | :25:31. | :25:36. | |
workforce. We'll look at into other disciplines and locations btt we'll | :25:37. | :25:41. | |
keep this as the HQ. Proud to be a brand from the East Midlands. | :25:42. | :25:44. | |
Without a doubt. Tomorrow in the final part of our Made in the East | :25:45. | :25:49. | |
Midlands series we are at the Leicestershire bakery which has won | :25:50. | :25:53. | |
more than 4,000 awards sincd it opened for business in 1906. Now the | :25:54. | :26:01. | |
weather from Kate. Not too bad. Yes but warm and human and thundery | :26:02. | :26:06. | |
weather heading our way latdr this week. Another transient ridge of | :26:07. | :26:10. | |
high pressure across the UK at the moment. We have changes on the way | :26:11. | :26:14. | |
for tonight. A warm front ptshing in from the south`west. This one won't | :26:15. | :26:18. | |
have much rain on it, which will disappoint the gardeners, btt it | :26:19. | :26:23. | |
will it'll introduce much w`rmer, more humid air. Temperatures will be | :26:24. | :26:28. | |
creeping up Kay`by`day up into the high 20s by Friday and that will | :26:29. | :26:33. | |
increasingly gift chance of thundery showers later in the week and into | :26:34. | :26:36. | |
the weekend. For the time bding it is fairly quiet. We day dry for the | :26:37. | :26:42. | |
rest of the night with clouds dispersing. Clear spells. Btt | :26:43. | :26:45. | |
despite that, it won't be mtch cold other. Temperatures down to 13 or | :26:46. | :26:49. | |
146789 a fairly muggy one in store. Tomorrow morning a dry start. | :26:50. | :26:52. | |
Sunshine first thing. We will see the cloud building into the | :26:53. | :26:56. | |
afternoon once again but despite that cloud, temperatures will be | :26:57. | :27:00. | |
higher tomorrow, up to around 2 , possibly 25. There is the chance of | :27:01. | :27:06. | |
that heat that it could spark one or two thundery showers across more | :27:07. | :27:09. | |
northern parts into Derbyshhre and Nottinghamshire later on in the | :27:10. | :27:12. | |
afternoon. Most places stayhng dry. Those showers will be short 46 | :27:13. | :27:17. | |
lived. They will die away on Wednesday night. `` short`lhved | :27:18. | :27:21. | |
Thursday looking decent. Drx, spells of sunshine, fairly warm with | :27:22. | :27:25. | |
temperatures up to 24. By Friday, temperatures are going to bd up into | :27:26. | :27:29. | |
the high 20s, 28. And as I say, there is a chance of these thundery | :27:30. | :27:34. | |
showers sparking off. Watch this space. Crash bang, wallop come | :27:35. | :27:39. | |
Friday or thereabouts. Something to look forward to? Yes, and something | :27:40. | :27:47. | |
else to look forward to. Thd late news, with me and Kate. | :27:48. | :27:48. |
