And now the news for the East Midlands, I'm Anne Davies. | :00:11. | :00:15. | |
Families whose homes were damaged by a dramatic water pipe explosion | :00:16. | :00:18. | |
in Derby yesterday have been warned it could be months before | :00:19. | :00:20. | |
And a road in Chester Green, ripped up by the blast, will also be | :00:21. | :00:28. | |
2am yesterday and a huge fountain of water and rubble explodes. | :00:29. | :00:40. | |
It flooded and damaged nearby homes in Mansfield Road. | :00:41. | :00:43. | |
Most people have not been able to return them properly, | :00:44. | :00:46. | |
She will be overseeing repairs, but will have to rent elsewhere. | :00:47. | :00:56. | |
There are thousands of tonnes of water literally | :00:57. | :00:58. | |
Every room is gone, furniture ruined, everything. | :00:59. | :01:12. | |
The water surged into the reception area of a local church. | :01:13. | :01:22. | |
This line shows how much water came in here. | :01:23. | :01:25. | |
When I got down here, I was amazed to see the amount | :01:26. | :01:28. | |
of water that was flooding around, all of the debris on the road | :01:29. | :01:31. | |
and around, in some ways, it looked a bit like a war zone | :01:32. | :01:36. | |
Severn Trent Water plan to permanently fix | :01:37. | :01:44. | |
the pipe rather than temporarily repairing it. | :01:45. | :01:56. | |
It could be a long time before life returns to normal | :01:57. | :01:59. | |
Bob Stear is from Severn Trent - a little earlier, I asked him | :02:00. | :02:03. | |
if they were any closer to figuring out what caused the burst... | :02:04. | :02:11. | |
Firstly, I continue to apologise to the residents. It has been a | :02:12. | :02:23. | |
traumatic event. Our focus has been to keep customers safe, to restore | :02:24. | :02:28. | |
the supplies which we have done to the 7500 customers and behind me, we | :02:29. | :02:33. | |
are starting to fix the main which we are halfway through. This is a | :02:34. | :02:39. | |
dramatic water burst, we seem to have a lot of them in this region, | :02:40. | :02:48. | |
what does it say about the system? Well, we have 46,000 kilometres of | :02:49. | :02:52. | |
water pipes and of different conditions, we do a lot of modelling | :02:53. | :02:56. | |
work to keep on top of the maintenance but the next few days, | :02:57. | :03:01. | |
we will look at this area because we have had two bursts in the last few | :03:02. | :03:05. | |
years. Can you tell when something like | :03:06. | :03:08. | |
this will happen because it was like an explosion? | :03:09. | :03:14. | |
If we have known, we would not have allowed it to happen. These things | :03:15. | :03:18. | |
do go suddenly. We have to monitor the network and there was no | :03:19. | :03:22. | |
indication. If this happens now, how likely | :03:23. | :03:26. | |
could it happen again? As I say, in a typical area we do | :03:27. | :03:33. | |
not get these very often, we have 8 million customers and only have a | :03:34. | :03:38. | |
few of these incidents a year. When it happens, it causes devastation | :03:39. | :03:41. | |
and that has been a priority, to look after the customers that have | :03:42. | :03:46. | |
had a pretty traumatic time and we have had teams out making sure they | :03:47. | :03:50. | |
are not out of pocket and to re-home people. | :03:51. | :03:50. | |
Many thanks. Next tonight, up to 200 | :03:51. | :03:53. | |
people are out of a job following the sudden closure | :03:54. | :03:56. | |
of a national apprenticeship "Positive Outcomes" ran | :03:57. | :03:58. | |
the training courses from its headquarters in South | :03:59. | :04:01. | |
Normanton. But last week it lost | :04:02. | :04:04. | |
a crucial multi-million pound Our Social Affairs Correspondent, | :04:05. | :04:07. | |
Jeremy Ball, reports. Tonight we had confirmation of 170 | :04:08. | :04:23. | |
redundancies here, positive outcomes was in the process of restructuring | :04:24. | :04:28. | |
to sell part of the business when the skills funding agency pulled its | :04:29. | :04:33. | |
funding. If you look at the website tonight, you can see it was one of | :04:34. | :04:36. | |
the largest apprenticeship programmes with thousands of | :04:37. | :04:40. | |
placements up-and-downer country in industries from property sales to | :04:41. | :04:45. | |
hospitality to warehouses. The Department of Education says it is | :04:46. | :04:49. | |
talking to employers so the apprenticeships can be transferred | :04:50. | :04:55. | |
so young people training do not get disrupted. We heard from the | :04:56. | :04:57. | |
administrators but have not spoken to anyone today because the officers | :04:58. | :05:02. | |
have been closed on the blinds are down. The business has spoken to a | :05:03. | :05:08. | |
trade publication where it thanks all of the staff who worked here | :05:09. | :05:13. | |
over 20 years or so and it would not be drawn on wider skills funding | :05:14. | :05:18. | |
agency was so concerned about finances. We have heard from a | :05:19. | :05:21. | |
member of staff who said they found out about their job going through an | :05:22. | :05:27. | |
e-mail last Friday and had them positive outcomes will sound like a | :05:28. | :05:30. | |
cool -- cruel irony tonight. 37 drivers have been caught not | :05:31. | :05:33. | |
wearing seat belts during a four day Police officers patrolled | :05:34. | :05:36. | |
the motorway and the A1 It's part of the Fatal four | :05:37. | :05:40. | |
campaign, which targets drink-driving, speeding, | :05:41. | :05:47. | |
not wearing a seat belt and using A young award-winning musician has | :05:48. | :05:49. | |
returned to his roots in Nottingham inspiring more young musicians | :05:50. | :05:56. | |
to follow their dreams. Sheku Kanneh-Mason won the BBC's | :05:57. | :06:00. | |
prestigious Young Musician Over the weekend he performed one | :06:01. | :06:03. | |
more time with the Nottingham Youth Nothing can beat the experience of | :06:04. | :06:19. | |
playing with an orchestra and meeting other young musicians. I was | :06:20. | :06:24. | |
so inspired by the first rehearsal, the sound of the orchestra. And I | :06:25. | :06:30. | |
have learned so much. It is inspiring because he is such a good | :06:31. | :06:34. | |
musician. It is cool to play with him. | :06:35. | :06:35. | |
And finally from me tonight the Leicester City supporter | :06:36. | :06:37. | |
who suffered three heart attacks after collapsing during last week's | :06:38. | :06:39. | |
game against Sevilla has today been able to thank the off-duty | :06:40. | :06:42. | |
firefighter who helped save his life. | :06:43. | :06:45. | |
An emotional reunion with the firefighter who helped | :06:46. | :06:57. | |
to save his life after Jim Blockley became ill during the match. | :06:58. | :07:03. | |
I went to a steward and told him I was fine. | :07:04. | :07:07. | |
I walked along with him and we got to the halfway line | :07:08. | :07:10. | |
Kaz Whitener, South Yorkshire firefighter | :07:11. | :07:21. | |
I saw him and he was being held up as soon afterward, | :07:22. | :07:32. | |
a couple of the on site medics came and started to give him CPR, | :07:33. | :07:37. | |
something I've received a lot of training in. | :07:38. | :07:42. | |
I was sat quite close to the end of the aisle | :07:43. | :07:45. | |
so I managed to get quickly there and help him at the front. | :07:46. | :07:54. | |
He died 451 minutes on three separate occasions. They told us to | :07:55. | :07:58. | |
kissing goodbye at A If it wasn't for her, | :07:59. | :08:02. | |
I wouldn't be here. That is what the doctor said. She | :08:03. | :08:17. | |
was brilliant. Not just that he is alive, | :08:18. | :08:22. | |
but that's it is sat up and talking. Leicester City football club's | :08:23. | :08:27. | |
ambassador has been to visit with a signed shirt | :08:28. | :08:33. | |
from all the players. It is fitting that Jim's first words | :08:34. | :08:36. | |
were about the results. I knew I was in hospital, and I laid | :08:37. | :08:41. | |
there and asked what the score was. As for the next Leicester City | :08:42. | :08:50. | |
match, he says he plans to take it So, it's goodbye from me - | :08:51. | :08:56. | |
but with your weather After a mild week last week, things | :08:57. | :09:17. | |
are turning cooler. Temperatures dropping back down into single | :09:18. | :09:22. | |
figures. There will be outbreaks of rain as we move to the week, low | :09:23. | :09:27. | |
pressure so quite unsettled. Things will become more settled towards the | :09:28. | :09:31. | |
end of the week and weekend. And improving picture. This is what was | :09:32. | :09:39. | |
going on today, some cold air from the north-west as we move through | :09:40. | :09:42. | |
the day and the band of rain we saw this morning was on the front edge | :09:43. | :09:48. | |
so as we move tonight -- through tonight, a cold night, some clear | :09:49. | :09:52. | |
spells and scattered showers, the showers could be slightly wintry on | :09:53. | :09:58. | |
high ground forming sleet or snow. An overnight low of two or three | :09:59. | :10:03. | |
Celsius. Some ice on untreated surfaces and a touch of frost. A | :10:04. | :10:08. | |
cold starts tomorrow, brightness around first thing, more cloud in | :10:09. | :10:14. | |
the afternoon, sunny spells and scattered showers which could be | :10:15. | :10:17. | |
wintry on high ground. Temperatures struggling. It will not be feeling | :10:18. | :10:26. | |
particularly pleasant. Wednesday, a dry start further east but a band of | :10:27. | :10:31. | |
rain making its way slowly across as we move through the day. A few heavy | :10:32. | :10:39. | |
bursts and temperatures not to warm, nine Celsius. We will see a breeze | :10:40. | :10:46. | |
easing slightly. Thursday, things become increasingly settled, still | :10:47. | :10:51. | |
cloudy, outbreaks of rain further south, temperatures reaching nine | :10:52. | :10:56. | |
Celsius. Friday, we start to see high pressure taking charge so | :10:57. | :10:59. | |
becoming increasingly settled. I leave you with the outlook. | :11:00. | :11:02. | |
outlook for Saturday and Sunday is for something dry and settled, sunny | :11:03. | :11:04. | |
spells but a bit on the cool side. This week we are starting off with a | :11:05. | :11:18. | |
taste of winter. This is Paul and maritime air, it has come from a | :11:19. | :11:21. | |
long way north and will push in lots of showers. The last of any mild air | :11:22. | :11:27. | |
gets swept away with the cloud. Tonight we have showers mostly | :11:28. | :11:28. | |
across the | :11:29. | :11:32. |
