Good evening and welcome to BBC Look competence and confusion. We can | :00:00. | :00:05. | |
Good evening and welcome to BBC Look North. The headlines tonight: The | :00:05. | :00:09. | |
man threatening to sue his son's school if teachers go on strike. If | :00:09. | :00:19. | |
I knew the teachers aren't here to educate my child, I will be fining | :00:19. | :00:23. | |
the school £50. The Prime Minister promises to | :00:23. | :00:26. | |
investigate jobs with no guaranteed hours. For some, organisations, | :00:26. | :00:34. | |
these contracts can increase that ability, but there are questions in | :00:34. | :00:39. | |
the ways they can be used, which is why we are having a review. | :00:39. | :00:41. | |
The children's play areas which could soon become no smoking zones. | :00:41. | :00:45. | |
And showing off his steps at an early age — now this Grimsby dancer | :00:45. | :00:52. | |
is limbering up for Strictly. And we have a fine weekend in store. Join | :00:52. | :00:58. | |
me later in this programme for the forecast. | :00:58. | :01:03. | |
me later in this programme for the As hundreds | :01:03. | :01:07. | |
close during a national teachers strike on Tuesday, one parent is | :01:07. | :01:09. | |
threatening his children's school with legal action. Unions say the | :01:09. | :01:16. | |
strike is about their pay and pensions, as well as Government | :01:16. | :01:21. | |
changes to the way they work. But some working parents say schools | :01:21. | :01:24. | |
aren't giving them enough notice to make alternative arrangements for | :01:24. | :01:26. | |
the care of their children. Sarah Corker reports. | :01:26. | :01:32. | |
For many, it's a highly rewarding profession, but the list of | :01:32. | :01:35. | |
grievances from teachers has been growing. And Tuesday's strike will | :01:35. | :01:41. | |
see Chris Fletcher's son's school in Barton shut. And as a tanker driver, | :01:41. | :01:45. | |
for him, that means paying for child care or losing a day's pay. If any | :01:45. | :01:54. | |
of the teachers are not here to educate my child, I will find the | :01:54. | :02:00. | |
school £50, and we will also be going for compensation due to lost | :02:00. | :02:06. | |
revenue. This is due to child care we make have to take on. You will | :02:06. | :02:12. | |
sue the school? I will be suing the school. The head teacher here says | :02:12. | :02:16. | |
he has little choice but to shut — 80% of staff are expected to walk | :02:16. | :02:21. | |
out. Trying to provide a safe environment, which we do every day, | :02:21. | :02:26. | |
that unfortunately, and with great reluctance, it is necessary to close | :02:26. | :02:33. | |
the school. If we have children in school and not enough staff, it is | :02:33. | :02:41. | |
hard to plan for this dull —— and is working day. In Lincolnshire, 77 | :02:41. | :02:50. | |
will be closed. In North Lincolnshire, 18 around half, could | :02:50. | :02:56. | |
close. Emma Hardy is one of those teachers striking. This dispute | :02:57. | :02:59. | |
centres on pensions, workload and performance—related pay. This isn't | :02:59. | :03:06. | |
just about teachers wanting more money. This is about education as a | :03:06. | :03:10. | |
hall and the type of education we want children in this country to | :03:10. | :03:16. | |
have, and performance related pay is one of those things that teachers | :03:16. | :03:20. | |
face. We are having to make her children jump through hoops to pass | :03:20. | :03:24. | |
tests. But the Government maintains reforms are needed to improve | :03:24. | :03:27. | |
standards at a time when other countries are outpacing us. This is | :03:27. | :03:30. | |
the second strike in two years by teachers. | :03:30. | :03:35. | |
Our firm has six full—time employees, and 50% are working | :03:35. | :03:46. | |
parents, so we cannot lose them for one day. Chris has instructed a | :03:46. | :03:54. | |
strongly worded letter. Many people will not know until next week if the | :03:54. | :04:02. | |
school is striking. I asked this representative of the National Union | :04:02. | :04:07. | |
of Teachers how many parents are struggling to get childcare. And | :04:07. | :04:14. | |
sympathy with parents, but what I would say is that the strike doesn't | :04:14. | :04:20. | |
have to take place. If Mr —— Michael Gove offered to sit down with us, | :04:21. | :04:28. | |
the strike would be. I have an e—mail here, which mentions no | :04:28. | :04:37. | |
backing for it straight. The messages we have had shows a high | :04:37. | :04:44. | |
degree of support from parents. Our people behind you? I be sympathetic? | :04:44. | :04:50. | |
That's a experience I have had in Hull. I had a taxi driver wish me | :04:50. | :04:58. | |
all the best today. The turnout for the strike ballot, 73% of your | :04:58. | :05:01. | |
members did not think it was worth voting on. That is hardly a ringing | :05:01. | :05:05. | |
endorsement. That's roughly commensurate with those who turnout | :05:05. | :05:11. | |
in local government elections. I'm not talking about elections. But we | :05:11. | :05:17. | |
have had similar turnouts before, and you have made similar points | :05:17. | :05:23. | |
before, but on the day, huge numbers have come out. 73% of teachers did | :05:23. | :05:27. | |
not think the issue was worth 14 on? Now, it would be better if Moore | :05:27. | :05:34. | |
had faulted, but if the vote was legitimate and properly carried | :05:34. | :05:37. | |
out, children's pool probably be taking strike action on Tuesday. You | :05:37. | :05:44. | |
are unhappy about pension changes. Michael Gove says | :05:44. | :05:52. | |
people in the public and private sector. Why do you not accept that? | :05:52. | :05:59. | |
Because it is not true. Mr Gove is wrong on this. He is effectively | :05:59. | :06:04. | |
taking thousands of pounds of teachers, hundreds of thousands of | :06:04. | :06:10. | |
pounds, actually for a young teacher starting out if they continued to | :06:10. | :06:14. | |
pensionable age. He will lose hundreds of thousands of pounds in | :06:14. | :06:18. | |
terms of contributions. What percentage of parents watching now | :06:18. | :06:23. | |
do you think sympathetic? From what I am picking up, the majority of | :06:23. | :06:30. | |
patients I have —— parents I have spoken to are sympathetic. Thank you | :06:30. | :06:44. | |
very much indeed. Do you support the teachers' strike? Have working | :06:45. | :06:47. | |
parents been given enough notice to find alternative care for their | :06:47. | :06:50. | |
children? Email us at [email protected]. | :06:50. | :07:08. | |
In a moment: Burial land in parts of Lincolnshire could run out in just | :07:08. | :07:18. | |
four years' time. The Prime Minister has told BBC Look | :07:18. | :07:21. | |
North the Government will investigate | :07:21. | :07:26. | |
contracts are being abused by some employers. A growing number of | :07:26. | :07:29. | |
workers in East Yorkshire and Lincolnshire are believed to be | :07:29. | :07:32. | |
employed on the contracts, where staff are given no guarantee about | :07:32. | :07:35. | |
how many hours they'll work or how much they'll get paid. David Cameron | :07:35. | :07:40. | |
said the contracts offered flexibility for some, but insisted | :07:40. | :07:42. | |
workers should not be exploited. He's been speaking to our political | :07:42. | :07:47. | |
editor Tim Iredale. The Government insists that more | :07:47. | :07:50. | |
jobs are being created in our part of the world, yet some question the | :07:50. | :07:54. | |
type of jobs that are available to those seeking work. In particular, | :07:54. | :08:01. | |
zero—hour contracts. Kevin Jones from East Yorkshire lost his job in | :08:01. | :08:05. | |
the caravan industry and says he can't afford to take a job where | :08:05. | :08:13. | |
there's no guaranteed weekly income. All I can say with zero—hour | :08:13. | :08:20. | |
contracts is you will have to ask if you have a job to come into the next | :08:20. | :08:27. | |
week. They can just say, no, we don't need you any more. Zero—hour | :08:27. | :08:30. | |
contracts are flexible contracts where employees are given no | :08:30. | :08:33. | |
guarantee about many hours they'll work. Many of our biggest named | :08:33. | :08:37. | |
companies use them, as do some councils and hospitals. Former | :08:37. | :08:42. | |
University of Lincoln student Katie Griffith says her zero—hour contract | :08:42. | :08:45. | |
in a hotel fitted—in with her studies. I had a zero—hour contract | :08:45. | :09:00. | |
from 16, and it was brilliant, because for five years, I knew I had | :09:00. | :09:05. | |
a job to go back to, whereas friends with contracts would have their jobs | :09:05. | :09:10. | |
end. I had my employer bringing me asking when I was coming in. While | :09:10. | :09:15. | |
some argue that zero—hour contracts offer a large degree of flexibility | :09:15. | :09:18. | |
for staff and their employers, others claim that, in some cases, | :09:18. | :09:21. | |
the contracts are little more than exploitation. I asked the Prime | :09:21. | :09:30. | |
Minister for his view. Can you understand why people with think | :09:30. | :09:34. | |
that this kind of contract exploits workers? I absolutely understand the | :09:34. | :09:40. | |
issues here, and we have to get this right. For some people and | :09:40. | :09:44. | |
organisations, these contracts coming peace flexibility, but there | :09:44. | :09:47. | |
are questions in the weave can be used, which is why we are having a | :09:47. | :09:55. | |
review. I think it's right to have a proper look at this. Is it fear for | :09:55. | :10:03. | |
example that someone in Grimsby wouldn't be guaranteed how many | :10:03. | :10:10. | |
hours they would work? If these contracts are more used in the | :10:10. | :10:15. | |
public sector, we have to ensure that we have a flexible labour | :10:15. | :10:22. | |
market, and we have 1.4 million extra jobs since 2009, which we | :10:22. | :10:27. | |
don't want to use, but we must look at these contracts and see if they | :10:27. | :10:32. | |
are being abused. The Government now faces a battle to convince its | :10:32. | :10:33. | |
critics contracts. | :10:33. | :10:39. | |
You can see Tim Iredale's full interview with David Cameron on the | :10:39. | :10:42. | |
Sunday Politics. He'll also be talking to Godfrey Bloom and the | :10:42. | :10:45. | |
Labour MP for Hull North, Diana Johnson. | :10:45. | :10:52. | |
A man has been charged with the murder of his 79—year—old mother in | :10:52. | :10:56. | |
Lincolnshire. Betty Constable was taken to Lincoln County Hospital | :10:56. | :10:59. | |
from her home in Dunholme on Sunday morning, but died on Tuesday. Nigel | :10:59. | :11:08. | |
Constable, who's 51, will appear before Lincoln Magistrates' Court | :11:08. | :11:09. | |
tomorrow. North Lincolnshire health officials | :11:09. | :11:12. | |
say at least ten people have been to hospital after taking drugs | :11:13. | :11:15. | |
described as legal highs. The youngest was 14. They say some | :11:15. | :11:18. | |
substances are not meant for human consumption, and they're worried | :11:18. | :11:23. | |
someone could die. The trust that runs NHS hospitals in | :11:23. | :11:26. | |
Grimsby, Scunthorpe and Goole will be getting help from health chiefs | :11:26. | :11:29. | |
in Sheffield to try to reduce death rates. | :11:29. | :11:33. | |
The Government's agreed to pay half the cost of upgrading this road in | :11:33. | :11:39. | |
Lincoln. More than £3 million is to be spent on Canwick Road, which is a | :11:39. | :11:42. | |
main road through the city. Parents are being urged to stub out | :11:42. | :11:46. | |
their cigarettes in two play parks. Health officials worry that, by | :11:46. | :11:49. | |
watching adults smoke, children are more likely to start when they're | :11:49. | :11:52. | |
older. Boston Borough Council is not putting a ban in place, but hopes | :11:52. | :11:55. | |
adults will take notice of smoke—free zones in its parks when | :11:55. | :11:58. | |
they are introduced. At Central Park in Boston, children | :11:58. | :12:01. | |
play in the fresh air. Moves are now underway to make sure that air stays | :12:01. | :12:05. | |
fresh. Boston Borough Council is going to ask | :12:05. | :12:10. | |
the play areas both here, and at Woodville Road in the town. Would | :12:10. | :12:20. | |
you go for a ban? I think there is a very strong place for —— case for | :12:20. | :12:27. | |
doing that, because children are a vulnerable group, and you're talking | :12:27. | :12:35. | |
about small radius. This is surely not a health risk, being an open | :12:35. | :12:38. | |
area, so why do it? I agree second—hand smoke would be limited | :12:38. | :12:44. | |
here, but I don't want to promote normalising smoking. We don't want | :12:44. | :12:48. | |
children to think it is acceptable behaviour. Parents we spoke to said | :12:48. | :12:55. | |
they support the ban. It is a good idea, because children are not | :12:55. | :12:58. | |
really supposed to be breathing smoke. Really, parents should not be | :12:58. | :13:08. | |
smoking on it —— in a counterpart. Andrew Britton, ex—smokers outnumber | :13:08. | :13:18. | |
smokers, —— in Great Britain, X numbers out number smokers. Boston | :13:18. | :13:22. | |
isn't the first town to address this issue. In New York's Central Park, | :13:22. | :13:26. | |
there's a mandatory ban with hefty fines. Here in Boston, though, the | :13:26. | :13:30. | |
smoke—free area is purely voluntary. But some people worry it's a form of | :13:30. | :13:38. | |
discrimination. There is no evidence whatsoever that smoking in the | :13:38. | :13:43. | |
outdoors harms anybody. This is a spiteful move. Councillors still | :13:43. | :13:47. | |
have to vote on the plans, but if they decide it's time for a change | :13:47. | :13:50. | |
of attitude, the no smoking areas will come into force early next | :13:50. | :13:55. | |
year. Is Boston Council right to encourage | :13:55. | :13:59. | |
smokers not to light up in parks? Should they have gone further and | :13:59. | :14:14. | |
imposed a ban? Friday night on BBC One. Still ahead: The time getting | :14:14. | :14:24. | |
behind their dancer, as the battle of the ballroom gets underway. Kevin | :14:24. | :14:30. | |
is all right! He has it tonight 's photograph is a stunning | :14:30. | :14:46. | |
picture. This is the River Humber at sunset. Thank you for your pictures. | :14:46. | :15:02. | |
Good evening to you! I have had a bad week! I have heard about the | :15:02. | :15:10. | |
innuendos! Anyway, some sympathy for you here. Lynn has e—mailed seems | :15:10. | :15:16. | |
she felt sorry for you, she saw you shopping on your own. Don't worry, | :15:16. | :15:21. | |
Lynn, he spent two hours talking to me over tea and biscuits! That is a | :15:21. | :15:30. | |
lie! There was no tea and biscuits! On with a forecast. A pleasant | :15:30. | :15:35. | |
week. High pressure will dominate, and a lot of settled weather over | :15:35. | :15:42. | |
the weekend. Tomorrow, sunny but breezy, and the pressures chart | :15:42. | :15:45. | |
shows a region of settled weather, but the ice bars are tightly pact, | :15:45. | :15:51. | |
so it could change. Plenty of sunshine, with temperatures in the | :15:51. | :15:56. | |
high teens, we quite warm in the sunshine, and it is a fine enter the | :15:56. | :16:01. | |
day. It will stay settled and fine, dry as well, as we head to the | :16:01. | :16:11. | |
evening. Just a light breeze, and the values are these in the towns | :16:11. | :16:14. | |
and cities. In the countryside, it will be cooler, with temperatures | :16:14. | :16:17. | |
falling back. The sun will rise just before 7am, and setting around 745 | :16:17. | :16:25. | |
PM. We start the day tomorrow with perhaps the odd Mr patch, but we | :16:25. | :16:36. | |
will see a fine day developing, a long sunny spell, with a dry day. | :16:36. | :16:39. | |
Enjoy the sunshine, and get out and about. There will be quite a breeze | :16:39. | :16:42. | |
off the sea, which will make things feel chilly. Right along the | :16:42. | :16:45. | |
coastline, temperatures will struggle, but it will feel pleasant | :16:45. | :16:51. | |
out of the breeze. Inland, it could get to 19 or | :16:51. | :16:58. | |
for this time of year is around 16 degrees. On Sunday, another fine day | :16:58. | :17:03. | |
to come and breezy on Sunday. Even those Saturday will be blustery, | :17:03. | :17:07. | |
Sunday will have a brisk breeze to the south—east. On Monday, a little | :17:07. | :17:12. | |
bit workload, ball stay settled until the middle or the end of the | :17:12. | :17:20. | |
week. Peter, what are you up to this weekend? | :17:20. | :17:22. | |
The best advice I have is to say nothing and move on! | :17:22. | :17:29. | |
New research shows many areas are running out of space in cemeteries. | :17:29. | :17:33. | |
For some people, it means their wish to be buried next to family members | :17:33. | :17:37. | |
can't be met. While Hull has 80 years worth of burial land, Spalding | :17:38. | :17:41. | |
in Lincolnshire could run out in four years. There is growing | :17:41. | :17:44. | |
pressure for a change in the law to allow local authorities to re—use | :17:44. | :17:47. | |
existing graves. Phil Connell reports. | :17:47. | :17:49. | |
four years. There is growing pressure for Winston has three | :17:49. | :17:52. | |
generations of his family buried in the cemetery. Like many across the | :17:52. | :17:58. | |
country, though, this cemetery is overflowing. Now, when Leicester | :17:58. | :18:07. | |
councillor —— Leicester council buys extra land, his dream to be buried | :18:07. | :18:12. | |
with his relatives looks unlikely. I want to be worried in my time. I | :18:12. | :18:17. | |
find it very frustrating that the local authorities have not found | :18:17. | :18:20. | |
another suitable plot, and I don't see why I should be taken elsewhere. | :18:20. | :18:28. | |
Despite Winston's experience, East Riding Council says | :18:28. | :18:33. | |
county, there is 112 years of burial space available. In place may, there | :18:34. | :18:39. | |
is between 70 and 80 years. But in Lincolnshire, Boston Borough Council | :18:39. | :18:45. | |
has only 12 or 15 years. South Holland Council has four or five | :18:45. | :18:49. | |
years. For residents here, of a certain age, it is the topic of | :18:49. | :18:58. | |
conversation that is causing concern. I would not have thought of | :18:58. | :19:01. | |
it. We are all from Austin originally, and the cemetery is fill | :19:01. | :19:07. | |
off. The growing faith in this country would expect there is more | :19:07. | :19:13. | |
space available. In certain parts of the country, councils are moving | :19:13. | :19:17. | |
benches to make space. Others are even using car parks to deal with | :19:17. | :19:25. | |
what is described as a looming crisis. Calls are now being made for | :19:25. | :19:29. | |
the law to be changed, allowing family graves to be lifted, deep | :19:29. | :19:32. | |
end, and three years. A more would be to consider some of Sefton reuse. | :19:32. | :19:46. | |
—— grave reuse. It would bring people back into our cemeteries. For | :19:46. | :19:52. | |
many, thinking to the future, reassurances are being sought. There | :19:52. | :19:55. | |
are no guarantees they will be buried with their family members. | :19:55. | :20:01. | |
Fellas in the studio with us now. What is being suggested to create | :20:01. | :20:05. | |
more space? This BBC investigation shows this is a problem not only in | :20:05. | :20:11. | |
towns and cities. As we have seen, in rural parts of Lincolnshire, just | :20:11. | :20:19. | |
for five years of burial space. It is hoped the government will bring | :20:19. | :20:23. | |
in changes to the law, which will allow them to open graves and place | :20:23. | :20:28. | |
more graves on top. It is a practice already in place in other countries. | :20:28. | :20:34. | |
In Germany, graves there are reused after every 30 years. Tonight, the | :20:34. | :20:45. | |
government has said this is clearly a sensitive issue, and one on which | :20:45. | :20:49. | |
no decisions have been made. Thank you very much indeed. Thank you for | :20:49. | :20:51. | |
this response to our story yesterday. We heard concerns it | :20:51. | :20:54. | |
could actually lead to worse services on the East Coast Main | :20:54. | :20:59. | |
Line. Amanda in Grimsby says, "Provincial lines need upgrading. | :20:59. | :21:04. | |
Spend the money on that, rather than ploughing through people's homes, | :21:04. | :21:07. | |
the countryside and other areas where it's not wanted." But Jon in | :21:07. | :21:13. | |
Spalding says, "I'm 100% behind the project. We need to look at the | :21:13. | :21:18. | |
bigger picture. Increased capacity is urgently needed on the East Coast | :21:18. | :21:22. | |
Main Line, not to mention the environmental benefits." And Shirley | :21:22. | :21:25. | |
says, "The railways are now a private concern. Why is HS2 to be | :21:25. | :21:29. | |
funded from the public purse? If it's such a good investment, | :21:29. | :21:32. | |
investors should be queuing up to put their money in." | :21:32. | :21:33. | |
investors should be queuing Hull City boss Steve Bruce has | :21:33. | :21:36. | |
issued a warning to those who think tomorrow's game | :21:36. | :21:39. | |
United is a guaranteed three points. While City were | :21:39. | :21:44. | |
Newcastle, West Ham suffered a home defeat last week. But Bruce says | :21:44. | :21:46. | |
West Ham have the talent to cause problems, as our sports reporter | :21:46. | :21:48. | |
Simon Clark explains. He's probably still dancing after | :21:48. | :21:51. | |
last week's win at Newcastle, but Steve Bruce knows it's strictly | :21:51. | :21:54. | |
football, this. The Tigers served notice to the Premier league that | :21:54. | :21:57. | |
they mean business, but nothing's taken for granted, as Bruce meets | :21:57. | :22:00. | |
old friend, Sam Allardyce in the West Ham dugout. | :22:00. | :22:01. | |
He's probably still dancing after last week's win at Newcastle, I can | :22:01. | :22:03. | |
say this because he's my mate, and we don't have many in football, but | :22:03. | :22:07. | |
for me, he gets unfair, undue publicity for the so—called way they | :22:07. | :22:10. | |
play. If you look at what he's done over the last 10—15 years in the | :22:11. | :22:14. | |
Premier league, you know, playing against one of his teams, you're | :22:14. | :22:18. | |
going to have to be at your best to beat them. The one player the | :22:18. | :22:21. | |
national press has almost swooned in admiration of is City's record—buy, | :22:21. | :22:24. | |
Tom Huddlestone. Many were surprised he chose Hull City and not another | :22:24. | :22:29. | |
of their Premier league rivals. Once I had spoke to Steve Bruce, it was | :22:29. | :22:32. | |
fairly straightforward after that. I liked what he had to say, for my | :22:32. | :22:36. | |
role individually in the team, and the team's style of play generally, | :22:36. | :22:40. | |
to be fair. So that was a fairly simple decision to make, having | :22:40. | :22:43. | |
spoken to him, and once Tottenham had accepted the bid. This is the | :22:43. | :22:47. | |
stage you want to play at, whether you are a coach, a manager, or in | :22:48. | :22:51. | |
particular, a player, because they don't know, but they have the best | :22:51. | :22:55. | |
jobs of their life, playing in the Premier League week—in, week—out. It | :22:55. | :22:58. | |
must be wonderful to be a football again. One of those players, Liam | :22:58. | :23:02. | |
Rosenior, made a Premier League start for the Tigers in a side now | :23:02. | :23:06. | |
rubbing shoulders with some of the well—known names in the table. I | :23:06. | :23:10. | |
don't want it to be a highlight of the season. I don't want us to part | :23:10. | :23:13. | |
ourselves on the back too much. We are in the Premier league, so our | :23:13. | :23:18. | |
job is to win games in the Premier league. So, yeah, it was great to | :23:18. | :23:22. | |
get a result, but not being arrogant saying we should expect to win, but | :23:22. | :23:25. | |
we should aim to win every game. Today, the Tigers bid farewell | :23:25. | :23:28. | |
temporarily to Matty Fryatt, as the player joins Sheffield Wednesday on | :23:28. | :23:32. | |
loan for a month. He couldn't claim a place in a team scoring goals like | :23:32. | :23:39. | |
this. And tomorrow's Football Focus comes | :23:39. | :23:42. | |
live from the KC, when Damian Johnson talks to Tom Huddlestone | :23:42. | :23:45. | |
about Hull, happiness, and hair. That's on BBC One at noon. | :23:45. | :23:50. | |
And you can hear commentary of Hull City v West Ham on BBC Radio | :23:50. | :23:56. | |
Humberside's FM frequency. Coverage begins at 1.30pm tomorrow afternoon. | :23:56. | :23:58. | |
They'll also have commentary of Scunthorpe United's trip to Burton | :23:59. | :24:03. | |
Albion. That's on AM. While Grimsby Town's game against Tamworth will be | :24:03. | :24:06. | |
on digital and online. And BBC Radio Lincolnshire will have commentary of | :24:06. | :24:10. | |
Lincoln City's match against Hyde. That game kicks off at 3pm tomorrow. | :24:10. | :24:16. | |
Excitement is building among family and friends of our local contestants | :24:16. | :24:21. | |
on Strictly Come Dancing. And in their home towns, people are | :24:21. | :24:24. | |
preparing to watch golfer Tony Jacklin and professional dancer | :24:24. | :24:27. | |
Kevin Clifton take to our screens with their partners tonight. Jill | :24:27. | :24:31. | |
Archbold has been to Scunthorpe and Grimsby to see how much support they | :24:32. | :24:40. | |
have. For years, old Tony Jacklin worked on was his swing. Lately, | :24:40. | :24:45. | |
he's been getting into a different kind of one, and here at Ashby's | :24:45. | :24:50. | |
golf club, his former playing partner said he never shied from | :24:50. | :24:57. | |
practice. We would have lunch, and we would stop down here until it was | :24:57. | :25:06. | |
dark. Tony would carry on when he got home, until he would not stand | :25:06. | :25:12. | |
any more. Whether he's got that determination when it comes to the | :25:12. | :25:15. | |
dancing, I don't know. He could certainly do with losing a bit of | :25:15. | :25:20. | |
weight! It was on these fairways that Tony Jacklin learned his craft | :25:20. | :25:28. | |
as a pro golfer. But when the skills he learned as a sportsman help him | :25:28. | :25:35. | |
to be a dancer? The preamble, I saw, and I don't know how he's going to | :25:35. | :25:39. | |
perform! He has to stick at it. You can't just go out and expect to be | :25:39. | :25:43. | |
good at something. You have to practice. He could probably learn a | :25:43. | :25:48. | |
thing or two from fellow Lincolnshire lad, Kevin Clifton. He | :25:48. | :25:53. | |
started his career learning to dance with his sister in Grimsby. I did | :25:53. | :25:59. | |
people of Grimsby realise they have the Strictly Come Dancing start? I | :25:59. | :26:03. | |
think Kevin is all right! He just about has it, doesn't he? He is | :26:04. | :26:11. | |
pretty fit! I dance where Kevin started dancing, and we know him! | :26:11. | :26:20. | |
What do you think about strictly? I don't know, I hope he winds. | :26:20. | :26:28. | |
Everyone dances from the first time tonight. | :26:28. | :26:30. | |
Good luck to Kevin and to Tony Jacklin. BBC One at 9pm for the | :26:30. | :26:36. | |
first two episodes of Strictly Come Dancing. Let's get a recap of the | :26:36. | :26:41. | |
national and regional headlines. A BBC report says security breaches | :26:41. | :26:44. | |
and confusion helped the terrorists in the Kenyan shopping centre seat. | :26:44. | :26:49. | |
There's parent says he will sue his son's school if teachers go on | :26:49. | :26:55. | |
strike next week. The moral's weather, good spells of sunshine and | :26:55. | :26:57. | |
top temperatures getting up to around 19 Celsius. 19 is 66 | :26:58. | :27:07. | |
Fahrenheit. A huge response on the subject of the teacher's/. Thank you | :27:07. | :27:13. | |
for all of them. Just a few, Margaret says, having a total ban on | :27:13. | :27:19. | |
childcare, Stephen says, some of these patients | :27:19. | :27:28. | |
are struggling financially and are being forced to lose money they do | :27:28. | :27:33. | |
not have. How is that for caring for children? Dave says, I want a good | :27:33. | :27:37. | |
education for my children, and they will not get it if Michael Gove | :27:37. | :27:45. | |
damages morale and cut pay. That's all for now. I'll see you on Monday. | :27:45. | :27:45. |
