Welcome. BBC Look North has learned that more than 7 tonnes of rubbish | :00:10. | :00:13. | |
has been cleared from one of East Yorkshire's busiest roads in the | :00:13. | :00:16. | |
last two weekends. East Riding of Yorkshire council, which is | :00:16. | :00:18. | |
responsible for the A63, says amongst the rubbish are hundreds of | :00:19. | :00:21. | |
bottles of urine, which have been thrown from vehicles. Kate Sweeting | :00:21. | :00:26. | |
reports. It's been called the gateway to | :00:26. | :00:30. | |
Hull and East Yorkshire, the A63 is one of the areas busiest roads, but | :00:30. | :00:32. | |
many businesses are claiming the increasing amount of litter is | :00:32. | :00:37. | |
giving visitors the wrong impression. It's a problem local | :00:37. | :00:43. | |
MPs are now keen to solve. If you get off the ferry, it looks | :00:43. | :00:46. | |
unsightly, rubbish blowing around, it has been mentioned by businesses | :00:46. | :00:56. | |
that are interested in investing. It needs to be tidied up. It looks | :00:56. | :01:00. | |
as if we don't care about the area. We are promoting the area. It is | :01:00. | :01:07. | |
not just this road but rural roads people have raised it with me. A | :01:07. | :01:17. | |
:01:17. | :01:17. | ||
big increase in litter. 40 tons of rubbish is cleared, it costs | :01:18. | :01:27. | |
:01:28. | :01:32. | ||
taxpayers �45,000. Nationally, the bills come in at nearly �10 million. | :01:32. | :01:35. | |
We want businesses to be placed in the best possible light. My | :01:35. | :01:39. | |
business is based on tourism and family attractions. People expect | :01:39. | :01:46. | |
more. The biggest problem is people are lazy. Passengers chucking stuff | :01:46. | :01:56. | |
out. It is not a good impression. Amongst the rubbish are hundreds of | :01:56. | :01:58. | |
bottles of urine thought to have been discarded by lorry drivers, | :01:58. | :02:01. | |
and even syringes. Some residents have called for community payback | :02:01. | :02:04. | |
workers to be used to pick up litter - something the council says | :02:04. | :02:07. | |
isn't safe. It's a dangerous road, a high-speed vehicles and we have | :02:07. | :02:10. | |
to have restrictions. The staff need to be trained, highly trained, | :02:10. | :02:14. | |
using the equipment. We need to ensure everything is done safely | :02:14. | :02:18. | |
and motorists are not distracted. The council is now calling for more | :02:18. | :02:21. | |
people to report littering in the hope of encouraging drivers, to | :02:21. | :02:27. | |
clean up their act. An elderly care hospital ward in | :02:27. | :02:29. | |
Lincolnshire which was strongly criticised by the Care Quality | :02:29. | :02:34. | |
Commission in February is to close. The Clayton Ward at Lincoln County | :02:34. | :02:40. | |
hospital will shut as part of a so called site reconfiguration. It was | :02:40. | :02:43. | |
criticised for unacceptable levels of care of patients and problems | :02:43. | :02:48. | |
with staffing. Hundreds of people have been on the | :02:48. | :02:52. | |
streets of Beverley today for the re-enacting of the Easter Story. | :02:52. | :02:55. | |
The event took place in the open air as costumed actors presented | :02:55. | :03:00. | |
"The Beverley Passion". The drama ended in a crucifixion scene in the | :03:00. | :03:10. | |
:03:10. | :03:13. | ||
town's Market place. Our reporter There were seven dramatic events in | :03:13. | :03:17. | |
the last week of Jesus's life and this morning each one was played | :03:17. | :03:27. | |
:03:27. | :03:29. | ||
This is the third passion play to be staged in the town. It marks for | :03:29. | :03:32. | |
Christians regard as the most important date in the religious | :03:32. | :03:38. | |
calendar. It's a huge reminder and refined as we move through the town, | :03:38. | :03:43. | |
the public ask meaningful questions about what it is all about and what | :03:43. | :03:49. | |
we're witnessing. It is quite an amazing way of being an evangelist. | :03:49. | :03:54. | |
With dramatic impact, Jesus was played by Mark, a role which could | :03:54. | :04:00. | |
not be more different from his day- job as a flooring contractor. | :04:00. | :04:04. | |
appearance plays a big part. The first year we did it I was the only | :04:04. | :04:09. | |
one in Beverly with a beard and long hair. They asked me to play | :04:10. | :04:15. | |
the part of Jesus. It's a privilege. Beverley passion was performed by | :04:15. | :04:19. | |
members of seven local churches, a realistic portrayal which was to | :04:19. | :04:25. | |
move many to tears. It breaks my heart. It is as real today as it | :04:25. | :04:31. | |
was then. The passion play could be a biannual event in Beverley, a | :04:31. | :04:36. | |
moving reminder of what Easter is all about. | :04:36. | :04:39. | |
Hull FC remain second in Super League tonight thanks to a big | :04:39. | :04:43. | |
derby day win over rivals Hull Kingston Rovers. Robins coach Craig | :04:43. | :04:48. | |
Sandercock said his team had fallen into a hole. Our sports reporter | :04:48. | :04:57. | |
Simon Clark was there. This was the 215th running of | :04:57. | :05:07. | |
:05:07. | :05:08. | ||
rugby's most enduring Derby. It was a cagey first half until this. This | :05:08. | :05:12. | |
is a fairy-tale. He rushed out of retirement, scoring against the old | :05:12. | :05:17. | |
enemy. Into the second half and Jordon Turner was on the end of | :05:17. | :05:22. | |
this. The first of three tries for him. As the half wore on, the black | :05:22. | :05:32. | |
and white Rovers hit time and time again. Hull FC 36, Hull KR 6. | :05:32. | :05:38. | |
think we were beaten by the better team today. To be fair, Rovers | :05:38. | :05:44. | |
looked tired. Rovers went to sleep in the second half! Those last 20 | :05:45. | :05:52. | |
minutes, we fell into a whole. Hull played outstanding rugby league. | :05:52. | :05:57. | |
gave away a lot of weight and height to the opposition. A bigger | :05:57. | :06:03. | |
forward pack. I would not swap my blokes anything. You might think | :06:03. | :06:08. | |
Craig has most to think about, there is work to do. Peter gentle | :06:08. | :06:11. | |
reminded France this is a typical month coming up for the club | :06:11. | :06:17. | |
starting with one of their main rivals, Huddersfield on Monday. | :06:17. | :06:20. | |
Scunthorpe United have gone a long way to securing League One survival | :06:20. | :06:24. | |
thanks to a victory over Exeter City. Striker Jon Parkin came off | :06:24. | :06:27. | |
the substitutes bench to score the only goal of the game and fire | :06:27. | :06:31. | |
United up to 14th in the table. They're now seven points clear of | :06:31. | :06:35. | |
the relegation zone with five games to go. | :06:35. | :06:39. | |
It's been an overcast start to the Easter weekend - but will it stay | :06:39. | :06:48. | |
that way? Lisa Gallagher has the We are looking at cloudy skies | :06:48. | :06:52. | |

rein. -- cloud. The wind is moderate. Temperatures dropping to | :06:58. | :07:07. | |
45 degrees. Maybe a drizzly start today, the cloud will thicken. | :07:07. | :07:10. | |
