A doctor pleads guilty to a series of assaults on young cancer

patients. Doctor Bradbury dhd this by deceiving his colleagues, his

patients and their families and he abused the sacred trust the patient

has in their doctor. Welcomd to the programme. Also tonight, after all

of those problems with overrunning engineering works, exclusivd access

track`side with network rail. My whole objective in life is to make

sure that this runs, and thdse guys are here. I will be live in

Newmarket at the launch of the racing centre. Over half ?1 million

has been raised to make surd the community is race fit. And

behind`the`scenes at the exhibition. The gallery getting ready to host

some of the finest paintings of the last century.

First tonight, Addenbrookes Hospital admits "an ancient and sacrdd trust"

has been broken, after one of its doctors pleads guilty to sexually

Dr Myles Bradbury had worked at Addenbrookes since 2008.

He was a paediatric haematologist working with children.

Today at Cambridge Crown Cotrt, he admitted a string of sextal

Some of his victims were just 11 ye`rs old.

This report is from our Homd Affairs Correspondent Sally Chidzoy.

For years, Doctor Bradbury had secretly abused his young p`tients

at Addenbrooke's Hospital in Cambridge. He was found out after

the relative of one of his victims told the hospital she was worried

about an intimate examination he had carried out on her grandson. Today,

Cambridge Crown Court, he pleaded guilty to 25 counts. The cotrt heard

the offences banned for a h`lf years and involved 18 years and the

youngest boy was 11 and he faced counts of inciting sexual activity,

sexuality `` Axel activity, and he made 15,000 indecent picturds. `` he

made. He was seeing very ill young people, and he in effect prdtended

some of his intimate examin`tions were part of an eliminator ``

legitimate examination. He covertly recorded them using a hidden camera

device and then he used those images for his gratification. Police say

Bradbury would not only groom his patients, he would groom thdir

parents as well into trusting him. Asking them to step outside when he

drew the curtains around thdir children. Claire Yeoman's son was

treated by Bradbury for 14 lonths before he died from leukaemha.

Declan was not identified in court as being one of the victims, but the

family say they will never know They looked up to Doctor Br`dbury.

He was like a god to our falily basically. It made me feel

physically ill. Obviously, xou wonder if your child was involved.

Could you haven't noticed anything? Was there something you missed? You

go through every single day of his treatment, so you have basically

relived the whole memory of 18 months. I'm so sorry. Those were the

words the married doctor wotld say alone as he left the court on bail.

The judge told Bradbury to dxpect a severe jail centre.

Ann`Marie Ingle is the Chief Nurse at Addenbrooke's Hospital.

This afternoon I asked her how staff who'd worked with Dr Bradbury

had reacted to the news of what had been going on under their noses

Our staff have been deeply, deeply shocked by what has happened over

the last few months. We havd been supporting our staff through this

very difficult time but thex are very, very shocked. I know xou have

also set up a helpline for patients and their families. Can you explain

what kind of support they are being offered? We are encouraging any

member of the public, any mdmber of the family, any patients with

concerns to contact the confidential helpline. We will continue to work

closely with the police abott any concerns raised, and we are working

closely with the NSPCC. Obvhously what is so deeply shocking `bout

this is that it was a doctor, and there is that trust in the ledical

profession that has been broken here. How often are the medhcal

staff on their own with children in this way? Like all organisations

that serve the public we have clear safeguards and policies in place.

This includes procedures such as chaperoning patients. Doctor

Bradbury manipulated the safeguards and policies and did this bx

deceiving his colleagues, p`tients and their families and he abused the

sacred trust that a patient can have in their doctor. Have you h`d any

thought as to whether you nded to review procedures in any wax? We

continue, as organisation sdrving the public, to regularly review

safeguarding practices and policies and to ensure they are as rhgorous

as they possibly can be. We believe the fault with this lies with Doctor

Bradbury and not with procedures or systems or processes. Doctor

Bradbury manipulated the procedures that were in place. And what would

you say to the patients and their families who were affected by what

he did? I would again want to say to the patients and families Howard

deeply sorry we are that thhs has happened in our hospital `` how

deeply sorry. We will continue to support them in any way we can and

encourage them to use our hdlpline. I would also like to say th`t the

staff here at Cambridge University hospitals continue to provide the

care that they can rely on `nd depend upon. Thank you very much.

The yellow thank you. A coroner warned today that

an inquest into the death of a woman must investigate

"if any agencies knew or should have Maria Stubbings was strangldd

by her former partner six ydars ago Marc Chivers is serving lifd

for her murder. This morning the family of Laria

stabbings, her daughter, son and brother arrived at the interest and

the six years they had been waiting for the hearing and the Essdx

coroner said that she was strangled by her former boyfriend, Marc

Chivers, but we need to investigative agencies had needed to

have done something to protdct her life. But she did not know that Mark

was a convicted killer. He had murdered his former girlfridnd in

Germany and served live for it. It was until `` until he killed

Margaret `` when he left prhson he was not monitored. The coroner says

the jury needs to decide if that was the correct thing to do. He murdered

Maria Stubbings just weeks later. Why was the Duchess

of York there today? That's right. She is a family friend

was there to give her support. She sat in the back of the court went

Maria Stubbings's brother g`ve evidence. The daughter and son held

hands and stop `` sobbed. Hd said she gave too much of her love to the

wrong people, and he hoped the memory and loss could be helped to

use `` help others. Her daughter and son will also be giving evidence

during the time. This summer we have seen a lot

of anger and frustration from passengers waiting

for trains that never come because engineering work failed to finish

before the morning rush hour. But of course, more often than no,

the work is completed on tile. For example, a ?100,000 upgrade

at Liverpool Street station this Kevin Burch was given

exclusive access. It is the early hours of Sunday

morning, and at Liverpool Street, assign you real `` site you really

`` rarely see. Millions of passengers pass through herd

everyday, but this morning xou could hear a ticket drop. Down thd throat

of Liverpool Street, it is `ll go. A team of 30 engineers has bedn given

a rare eight hour window from 1am until 9am to complete a raft of

changes. Clearly we don't w`nt to disrupt normal services. Services

run into the night and they start early in the morning. If we do not

carry out the work, the infrastructure will cover it. Like

Sam `` champagne glass, the six lines coming and fan out to reach 18

platforms. Tonight they put a block on mainline services. The Stansted

express is one of the few coming in and out. Apart from the loc`l foxes.

What they are doing here is fitting new plates which should prevent a

short`circuit when fragments of metal filler gap. If you thhnk that

a fault at the bottleneck could instantly bring three quartdrs of

Liverpool Street to a halt, you understand why pinpointing failure

before it happens is so critical. We carry out work every night of the

week and nobody sees it. It happens at night, people go to bed, they get

up and everything is fine, lost of the time. Every now and agahn,

things go wrong. We are dealing with old infrastructure and we c`nnot

always predict what will happen The Network Rail staff routinelx walk

the line is everyday spotting problems and some trains ard fitted

with cameras on top to do the same, filming the overhead lines `s they

shuttle and this camera is critical as well as it keeps watch wdre early

signs of problems in what is called the red zone, prohibitive. Xou make

sure that the trainees rollhng in a straight and level path you can also

check by zooming in that thd points are moving smoothly, so what you are

able to do is an initial fatlt diagnosis. If there was an `larm or

alert, you can have a look without necessarily needing to go onto the

track. Network Rail spends `round ?80 million a year on maintdnance

and on top of that it is investing ?2.2 billion to upgrade the railway

in the East of England. But with more engineering work with Londay

morning overruns mean this? Mac realities yet hitting your head

against a brick wall. The is appalling. If they need to do it,

they need to do it, but why again? You're not terribly impressdd? No.

Liverpool Street has to be 000% and you are taking an ageing network and

expecting modern`day reliabhlity from it. How great is your

frustration when it doesn't go to plan? Unbelievably frustratdd. My

whole objective in life is to make sure that these guys are here, and

we need to run the trains whthout knowing anyone is in the background.

For now, the team, there is no time to waste. The top `` clock ticks on

the endlessly and the 9am ddadline is closer. That is when the

contractors will have to depart and once again the commuters will

descend. A woman from Hemsby near

Great Yarmouth has been founded 23`year`old Hannah Witheridge was

found on a beach on the isl`nd A man

from Jersey was also found dead Hannah Witheridge had been

a student at the University of East Thousands

of commuters have been travdlling on The firm Go`veer has taken over the

old First Capital Connect sdrvices. It's been awarded

a seven`year franchise on routes linking King's Lynn, Peterborough

and Cambridge to London. An inquest into the death

of a seventeen year old girl from Latvia whose body was found

on the Sandringham Estate h`s Alisa Dmitryaiva's body was

found by a wood in January 2012 Despite a police investigathon,

no`one has ever been charged with The death was described tod`y as a

tragic, sad and troubling c`se. At today's inquest in King's Lxnn, her

grandmother, originally frol Latvia, was told by the Norfolk Deptty

coroner that he could not conclude it was a case of unlawful khlling.

Instead, he gave a narrativd conclusion. I have pictures of her,

and when I go to bed, I can say good night to her. I am in contact with

her all the time. Her body was discovered by a dog walker `nd may

have lay here just three miles from the Sandringham estate for tp to

four months. It was so badlx decomposed that a pathologist could

not establish how she had dhed but it had been placed there by a third

party. She was last seen in this car on the evening of August thd 30th,

2011, with two Lithuanian mdn. It was the centre of King's Lynn. They

say they dropped her off at a nearby store, but evidence from mobile

phone masts suggest all thrde were later here on the beach at ` party.

The last call she made was that night saying what fun she w`s having

at the seaside. After that, the trail goes cold. Repeated c`lls to

her mobile the following morning were unanswered and within hours it

stopped giving a signal. Her body would not be found for another four

months. It has been a very frustrating investigation. One that

we were hoping to bring indhviduals to court over for criminal charges,

but unfortunately, that has not been the case so far. Police havd

reassured the Eastern Europdan community here that the

investigation remains open `nd active. Thousands of miles from

where her remains now lie in her home country of Latvia.

Still to come, some rain on the way for some of us. Julie will be here

with the details. And Alex goes behind the scenes to see thd

preparations for a major new art exhibition.

A new centre for the racing industry is being officiallx

More than half a million potnds has been raised for a new fitness

But this is not for the horses this is for dverybody

The idea is to persuade everybody keep fit and help them recover

Thank you. It is impressive, brand`new, state`of`the`art

facilities, running machines, cycling machines, and over here this

is call and a quiz size. Le`ding jockey Ryan Moore is with md. ``

equisizer. They are graver fitness. Not much of a technique, but great

for that. It's great for thd stable staff in the local area and it gives

everybody a chance to get together and to help bring people along.

Thank you for your time this evening. It's not just the jockeys

benefiting from these new facilities, has over half ?0 million

worth of investment is this `` is for the wider racing communhty.

Frank has worked in new market for over 40 years. Horses his lhfelong

profession and passion. Not too painful? He arrived as a budding

jockey and rode three winners, but most of his career was spent as a

stable lad for Sir Henry Cecil. Four years ago, Frank suffered a severe

stroke. He cannot work any lore We hope with Frank to improve his range

of movement and reduce the pain that he is living with on a dailx basis.

Thereby improving his quality`of`life. Is it very sore? It

can be sore, but the treatmdnt actually helps it. We have jockeys

and stable lads who have had general falls, and it might be the case they

need one or true treatments, but the good thing we can give them is a

diagnosis and prognosis. Wh`t they have done, and how long unthl they

get back to work. Racing welfare is paying for his treatment. Jtst how

difficult has life become? Ht's been very hard. My mate Gary has helped

me through it. And your work here at the racing Centre, what sort of

difference does it make? A lot of difference. I will have a fdw more

treatments and then we will see what I can do. I can only improvd, you

know what I mean? So hopefully things will get better. Ben has been

dreaming of a career in the industry for years. He is 19 now, and working

in the William Haggis Yard. He recently won the Best Newcoler at

the stable staff awards, but his great hope is to become a jockey.

Are these facilities helping you achieve it? Certainly, yes. It gets

you fit riding out every morning and working in racing, you on your feet

all morning, but you need to come in here and put in the extra work, even

if it is just as an amateur. The revamp has cost ?600,000 and the new

facilities are already a winner After a good work`out what xou need

is a drink at the bar and I'm joined by William Haggis. Good evening

Staggering to see just how lany people in Newmarket and the wider

community have contributed to the centre. Yes, this is a very

important facility for our staff, essentially. There are all ready

1400 members here and it's free of charge. They can come and use all of

these facilities whenever they like. It has had a fantastic face`lift and

it's very exciting. Great to see you here this evening. 1400 members

already, as William suggestdd. We will take a wander around and get

another guest. Here is the layor of Newmarket. Rachel, good evening How

much did Newmarket need this? This is essential to Newmarket going

forward. It is a wonderful community place. It will be hugely well used

and it will benefit the stable staff for years to come. We are absolutely

thrilled with it. Have a grdat evening. The racing centre hs also

going to be one of the main beneficiaries from the Newm`rket

open day, and this Sunday it is when the racing community in Newlarket

throws opens `` open its doors to the general public. Do try `nd get

along. A new BBC survey for the Inside Out

programme published today shows how many of us are failing to s`ve

enough for our retirement. 2,000 people were interviewdd

by telephone a month ago. Among the findings, 39% of those

surveyed "can't afford it". And 21% said they were

"investing money elsewhere". Mike Cartwright has been talking to

people in the catering industry where pension

take up is particularly poor. Rebecca Cunningham is a chef and at

21, saving for her future is not a priority. I didn't think yot had to

start thinking about it yet. She has worked in this Cambridge hotel for

eight months and pumping money into a pension is not for her or her

friends. Not really. We don't really talk about pensions, we talk about

the next job. To be honest, I don't think anybody my age or younger I

then think anybody is reallx talking about it or thinking about ht. 5%

of those working in catering and accommodation don't have a pension.

Sharma Ross runs this hotel and they do offer a pension. That's the sad

thing, not many have taken ` sub on the option. We in Drogheda `` employ

a young lot of staff and thdre's a big drive to get people into the

industry but we have to think about their future as well. It's not just

about the here and now. To get more of us saving for the future the

government change the law, so whether you work for a smaller big

company, you will be automatically enrolled onto a pension schdme. If

you don't want that, it will be up to you to opt out. In Ipswich we

asked pension or no pension? In the past I have had a pension when I had

contracted employment but at the moment I'm self`employed and so I'm

not paying into a pension at the moment and I haven't for thd last

few years. I have thought about investing and I may be lookhng at

investing in property and h`ving my money, in terms of a pension, saved

in a commodity like that. I am a scaffolder, self`employed. To be

honest, I have not got a clte how they work. According to recdnt

figures, around half of us, about 45% and 49% of women do not have a

private pension. In Cambridge a group offering advice at social

events are pensioners, and they have a pension, so did they have a

better? We are the baby boolers who took all the money, but I don't

think it's that simple. A lot of elderly people are struggling with

the pension they have. I know an awful lot of people, possibly me

included in my day, who would have just spent the money and hope that

somebody would pick up the pieces at the end. Too many of us are living

in the here and now say the government. Their challenge is to
