Good evening and welcome to BBC Look North. The headlines tonight: Calls | :00:00. | :00:12. | |
for the government to do more to protect the supply of drugs for | :00:13. | :00:19. | |
seriously ill patients. Drugs that are vital to people's | :00:20. | :00:23. | |
well`being and in some cases keeps people alive, why is there ` | :00:24. | :00:27. | |
shortage? A Lincolnshire wildlife park steps | :00:28. | :00:30. | |
in to save two tigers that were about to be destroyed. | :00:31. | :00:36. | |
A hero's welcome ` hundreds line the streets to greet the star of the | :00:37. | :00:40. | |
Winter Paralympics. And the big surprise that prompted | :00:41. | :00:43. | |
this reaction from Hull's fundraising Bee Lady. | :00:44. | :00:51. | |
I could cry. We don't want xou crying! We will have the we`ther | :00:52. | :01:02. | |
later in the programme. The government is being askdd to | :01:03. | :01:11. | |
step in and help a man from Lincolnshire who's been told a | :01:12. | :01:14. | |
shortage means he won't get his usual heart medication. For ten | :01:15. | :01:20. | |
years Colin Culpitt has takdn the same drug after having a he`rt | :01:21. | :01:23. | |
attack but that drug, Valsartan is now in short supply. He's bden | :01:24. | :01:28. | |
offered an alternative but hs worried about potential sidd | :01:29. | :01:33. | |
effects. Many thousands of patients across the country are affected by | :01:34. | :01:37. | |
similar shortages every year. Caroline Bilton reports. Colin | :01:38. | :01:44. | |
Culpitt suffered a heart attack over ten years ago. Since then, he's | :01:45. | :01:46. | |
taken a drug everyday called Valsartan. For him, it's wh`t keeps | :01:47. | :01:51. | |
him alive but it's in short supply and this week, Colin has bedn told | :01:52. | :01:55. | |
he'll have to take a drug stbstitute with no explanation as to why there | :01:56. | :01:59. | |
is a shortage or indeed how long it will last and he's concerned it will | :02:00. | :02:10. | |
come with new side effects. My concern is that drugs that `re vital | :02:11. | :02:14. | |
to people's well`being and hn some cases keeps them alive, why is there | :02:15. | :02:21. | |
a shortage? Is anybody doing anything about it? NHS Engl`nd, the | :02:22. | :02:27. | |
secretary of health, do thex know about this and if they do, what are | :02:28. | :02:32. | |
they doing about it? But Valsartan is one of many drugs that are | :02:33. | :02:36. | |
currently in short supply in the UK. Pharamcies say stock shortages are | :02:37. | :02:38. | |
becoming common place. According to the latest survey in which lore than | :02:39. | :02:41. | |
100 pharmacists were questioned they're spending at least two | :02:42. | :02:44. | |
working days a month chasing manufacturers and wholesalers to | :02:45. | :02:48. | |
source out of stock medicinds. It's affecting 700,000 patients ` year. | :02:49. | :02:52. | |
Manufacturers and wholesalers licensed to trade in the UK do have | :02:53. | :02:56. | |
a legal duty to ensure patidnt needs are met. And government guidelines | :02:57. | :03:01. | |
were published in 2011 setthng out standards for them to follow. But | :03:02. | :03:05. | |
those dispensing medicines say these measures aren't working. It has been | :03:06. | :03:16. | |
going on so long, it has become part of the job. This started about five | :03:17. | :03:24. | |
years ago and it is now becoming ingrained with the way pharlacies | :03:25. | :03:29. | |
and pharmacists run. The buck stops here. I am the guy that somdbody | :03:30. | :03:34. | |
brings the prescription to `nd they want it now. If they can't get it | :03:35. | :03:38. | |
now, they go out of the door and they go somewhere else. In ` | :03:39. | :03:42. | |
statement, the Department of Health denied there was a problem. | :03:43. | :03:53. | |
Thousands of people rely on them. In fact, they are something we take for | :03:54. | :04:02. | |
granted but it would seem there s no guarantee all patients will receive | :04:03. | :04:04. | |
the drugs they want. Neal Patel is from the Royal | :04:05. | :04:07. | |
Pharmaceutical Society, the body which represent pharmacists. He | :04:08. | :04:13. | |
joins me from our studios in London. Why other companies not producing | :04:14. | :04:16. | |
enough drugs for pharmacies in the UK? We don't deny that the system | :04:17. | :04:22. | |
is, located at the bottom lhne is that pharmacists are really | :04:23. | :04:25. | |
concerned now that even medhcine that are quite common like Valsartan | :04:26. | :04:31. | |
are now becoming in short stpply. What we really need is an entire | :04:32. | :04:38. | |
look at the supply chain. Wd need to make sure patients to get the | :04:39. | :04:41. | |
medicines they need when thdy need them. Are some of these drugs | :04:42. | :04:47. | |
companies selling abroad and as a consequence, we are suffering and | :04:48. | :04:52. | |
missing out? the system is complex. We have issues with European exports | :04:53. | :04:58. | |
and imports which can somethmes run out of balance. There was a | :04:59. | :05:00. | |
consolidation in the market as well so there is less manufacturhng at | :05:01. | :05:05. | |
less sites so if there is a problem with one manufacturer, that can have | :05:06. | :05:09. | |
a big impact. Previously, there were ten or 15 manufacturers and now | :05:10. | :05:17. | |
there are only one or two. Do we need to accept that we cannot take | :05:18. | :05:21. | |
it but wanted that drugs whhch are prescribed for us are necessarily | :05:22. | :05:27. | |
going to be there for us? Pharmacies are working really hard to lake sure | :05:28. | :05:30. | |
patients to get their medichnes when they need them. Unfortunately, that | :05:31. | :05:33. | |
is taking valuable time awax from pharmacists when they should be | :05:34. | :05:38. | |
looking at patient care, rather than try to get hold of medicines. We | :05:39. | :05:43. | |
want the system looked at in its totality and brought back to a state | :05:44. | :05:47. | |
where we were a few years ago, when medicines were available whdn | :05:48. | :05:51. | |
patients needed them. Is an alternative is prescribed, Like is | :05:52. | :05:59. | |
if somebody more side`effects? When patients are stabilised on ` | :06:00. | :06:01. | |
medicine, we don't want to change it if it suits them and that is an | :06:02. | :06:05. | |
important thing to consider. Also, if there is a problem with that | :06:06. | :06:09. | |
medicine, there are alternatives available. Pharmacists can work | :06:10. | :06:15. | |
collaboratively with GPs but it is far from ideal. We want to see the | :06:16. | :06:19. | |
supply chain working effecthvely so pharmacists can get medicinds within | :06:20. | :06:26. | |
24`hour Sunset is by the nedds of patients and get the right ledicine | :06:27. | :06:29. | |
at the right dose at the right time. Have you ever been refused xour | :06:30. | :06:32. | |
first choice medicine because it wasn't available? Do you thhnk | :06:33. | :06:35. | |
people should have to make do with an alternative to their usu`l drugs | :06:36. | :06:39. | |
if there aren't enough? Or should the government do more to protect | :06:40. | :06:40. | |
the supply chain? In a moment: Accused of proloting | :06:41. | :07:06. | |
the politics of hate, now a controversial Yorkshire Htmber | :07:07. | :07:07. | |
Euro MP is to stand down. A pair of tigers that were hours | :07:08. | :07:17. | |
away from being put down have been saved by a wildlife park in | :07:18. | :07:22. | |
Lincolnshire. 18`year`old T`ngo and eight`year`old Julia are settling in | :07:23. | :07:25. | |
to their new home at the Woodside Wildlife and Falconry Park near | :07:26. | :07:31. | |
Lincoln. They arrived last night from a Belgium rescue centrd after | :07:32. | :07:35. | |
the park agreed to pay a qu`rter of a million pounds to save thdm. Sarah | :07:36. | :07:37. | |
Corker reports. After a 12 hour, 400 mile journey, | :07:38. | :07:46. | |
Lincolnshire's newest residdnts were enjoying a well earned rest today. | :07:47. | :07:59. | |
This is tango. He is the older one. And just next door is eight`year`old | :08:00. | :08:03. | |
Julia. The pair were rescued from a circus troupe ` and were just hours | :08:04. | :08:07. | |
away from being shot. It's taken the owner of this wildlife park near | :08:08. | :08:10. | |
Lincoln ` six months of negotiations with three different countrhes to | :08:11. | :08:17. | |
save them. If we would not have stepped in, they would have been | :08:18. | :08:22. | |
euthanised quite quickly. They are frightened of brooms, sticks, if we | :08:23. | :08:26. | |
bring those things in, they are quite frightened. We can only had a | :08:27. | :08:31. | |
`` hazard a guess as to thehr true history. Tango was bred in the UK. | :08:32. | :08:35. | |
The animal then worked in the circus in Germany with his partner Julia. | :08:36. | :08:44. | |
And they were seized by the authorities in Belgium after being | :08:45. | :08:50. | |
mistreated. It has cost the park a lot of money to bring them here | :08:51. | :08:52. | |
This is their new purpose`btilt home. Staff have had special | :08:53. | :09:00. | |
training on how to look aftdr them. They will be eating six kilos of me | :09:01. | :09:10. | |
today. 50 beefburgers each per day. We don't want them to think that is | :09:11. | :09:17. | |
it. Earlier this year, a Danish Sue provide `` provoked worldwide | :09:18. | :09:25. | |
outrage when it killed giraffe. Then, last month, it killed a family | :09:26. | :09:30. | |
of four lines to make way for a new animal. Here, plenty of work has | :09:31. | :09:34. | |
gone in to make these new animals feel at home. To have him so close | :09:35. | :09:43. | |
to home as good. In parts of Europe, the days of performing an old `` | :09:44. | :09:51. | |
animals are finally over. Btt for Tango and Julia ` they can now enjoy | :09:52. | :09:57. | |
their retirement. The road under an historic Roman | :09:58. | :10:00. | |
Arch in Lincoln has reopened after repairs. Newport Arch was shut to | :10:01. | :10:04. | |
traffic three weeks ago to `llow stonemasons to rebuild parts of it. | :10:05. | :10:09. | |
It was built in the third cdntury and was damaged by recent cold | :10:10. | :10:13. | |
winters. The ticket office at Lincoln railway | :10:14. | :10:16. | |
station has reopened after ` quarter of a million pound face`lift. East | :10:17. | :10:19. | |
Midlands Trains says it will make queueing easer, and help improve | :10:20. | :10:30. | |
customer services. This is ` listed station and the teams that we have | :10:31. | :10:34. | |
worked with from our surveys is dashed surveyors through to | :10:35. | :10:39. | |
designers and contractors, we have had a lot of heritage work to | :10:40. | :10:42. | |
consider. We have constructdd and designed a new ticket officd which | :10:43. | :10:46. | |
gives a modern twist on the original features of the station. | :10:47. | :10:49. | |
Thanks for the response aftdr the Chief Constable of Humberside Police | :10:50. | :10:52. | |
defended her decision to cut 20 officers in the next four ydars | :10:53. | :10:56. | |
Lots of e`mails and texts. Thank you very much for all the | :10:57. | :11:35. | |
e`mails and texts. Communities around the Humbdr could | :11:36. | :11:38. | |
face catastrophic flooding tnless extra money is spent on defdnces. | :11:39. | :11:42. | |
That's the conclusion of a new flood strategy group which has just | :11:43. | :11:45. | |
finished meeting for the first time tonight. It comes four months after | :11:46. | :11:49. | |
a tidal surge caused extenshve damage to the East Coast. Otr | :11:50. | :11:53. | |
correspondent Paul Murphy is in Hessle, Paul, their conclushons seem | :11:54. | :12:04. | |
pretty clear, don't they? And who can forget the catastrophic events | :12:05. | :12:10. | |
of last December? Certainly not the people here, some of whom are still | :12:11. | :12:16. | |
clearing up. That conclusion from MPs was driving towards a strategy | :12:17. | :12:20. | |
that will ask the government for further funding to protect the whole | :12:21. | :12:27. | |
of the Humber from flooding. There is insufficient money at thd moment. | :12:28. | :12:31. | |
We have to use the opportunhty, all the flooding this winter, to make | :12:32. | :12:35. | |
the case for a new look at the budget around flood protecthon | :12:36. | :12:40. | |
because not to do so will ptt us at risk. Who else was at the mdeting? | :12:41. | :12:49. | |
The Environment Agency and local councils were involved as wdll. The | :12:50. | :12:55. | |
Environment Agency have described the events of last year as ` game | :12:56. | :12:59. | |
changer. They said there ard still tough decisions about which areas | :13:00. | :13:02. | |
they protect and which areas they don't even if they do get extra | :13:03. | :13:09. | |
funding. It is a hugely important, very unusual, very extreme dvent we | :13:10. | :13:12. | |
have seen which will certainly change the nature of what wd do It | :13:13. | :13:17. | |
will mean that we need to change our priority is a bit. It is dohng that | :13:18. | :13:23. | |
sort of thing. It is changing the look of what we now need to do. This | :13:24. | :13:29. | |
is a cross`party strategy group involving people from all around the | :13:30. | :13:32. | |
Humber and I get their main objective is to change the lindset | :13:33. | :13:35. | |
of government, to get them to realise that extra funding hs needed | :13:36. | :13:42. | |
to protect this bowl rural `rea `` vulnerable area. Thank you for | :13:43. | :13:53. | |
watching. Still ahead. Find out what prompted this reaction from whole's | :13:54. | :14:00. | |
famous B ladies, Jean Bishop. I could cry. We don't want yot crying! | :14:01. | :14:11. | |
Looking forward to seeing that in a moment. This is tonight's | :14:12. | :14:14. | |
photograph. I saw you last night on the telly, | :14:15. | :14:30. | |
looking scared of a snake. H thought you were a real man. It was just | :14:31. | :14:43. | |
acting. I'm sure. I'm just saying you are a hero. This weekend, | :14:44. | :14:48. | |
Saturday is the better day of the weekend. However, tomorrow, there | :14:49. | :14:54. | |
will be a lot of cloud around so a cloudy day tomorrow but a dhfferent | :14:55. | :14:59. | |
kind of cloudy day. We have had a southeasterly through this week and | :15:00. | :15:05. | |
it has brought low cloud and missed and Merck. We saw some spells of | :15:06. | :15:19. | |
sunshine through the course of this afternoon and it looks like a | :15:20. | :15:23. | |
largely fine night. As we h`d through this evening and ovdrnight, | :15:24. | :15:28. | |
staying dry. The cloud will be broken in a few spots and this will | :15:29. | :15:33. | |
allow a few fog patches to develop. A few patches of mist and fog to | :15:34. | :15:37. | |
wake up to tomorrow morning, a low of around seven or eight degrees. | :15:38. | :15:46. | |
These are the times of high waters. Tomorrow morning, first thing we | :15:47. | :15:54. | |
will have the brightest of the conditions. We will see mord cloud | :15:55. | :15:57. | |
spreading in from the West through the course of the day. It could | :15:58. | :16:02. | |
squeeze out some light rain and drizzle but I think, for thd vast | :16:03. | :16:05. | |
majority of us, for most of the day, it will be dry or both cloudy. | :16:06. | :16:11. | |
Temperatures have struggled this week. It will feel milder over the | :16:12. | :16:19. | |
next few days. On Sunday, a band of rain will spread in, some hdavy | :16:20. | :16:23. | |
spells of rain for a time, gradually turning more showery in nattre. | :16:24. | :16:28. | |
Monday, more unsettled weather, rain and drizzle and a ridge of high | :16:29. | :16:32. | |
pressure builds so settling down for Tuesday and Wednesday. And xou look | :16:33. | :16:39. | |
so sweet. I should be used to working with feminist creattres `` | :16:40. | :16:45. | |
venomous creatures. A controversial Euro MP who was | :16:46. | :16:49. | |
elected as a member of the British National Party has announced he s | :16:50. | :16:51. | |
stepping down. Five years ago, Andrew Brons became the first BNP | :16:52. | :16:54. | |
politician to represent the Yorkshire and Humber region. He | :16:55. | :16:57. | |
later left the party after falling out with its leader Nick Grhffin. | :16:58. | :17:00. | |
Critics have accused Andrew Brons of promoting the politics of h`te. | :17:01. | :17:03. | |
Here's our Political Editor Tim Iredale. | :17:04. | :17:08. | |
For the past five years, people in Yorkshire and Lincolnshire have been | :17:09. | :17:15. | |
represented in Europe by thhs man. He was one of two the MP Euro MPs | :17:16. | :17:21. | |
elected in 2009, a result that rocked the political establhshment. | :17:22. | :17:28. | |
who speaks for White, manual working`class parts of the | :17:29. | :17:33. | |
population? The BNP were thd beneficiaries of those disillusioned | :17:34. | :17:38. | |
voters. In the European elections five years ago, the BNP sectred the | :17:39. | :17:44. | |
support of almost one in ten voters in Yorkshire and the Humber. But | :17:45. | :17:48. | |
that support wasn't to last and the party soon became divided over an | :17:49. | :17:55. | |
internal power struggle. Wrhtten must get out of the Common Larket | :17:56. | :18:04. | |
and rebuild up relationship. Cube was a member of the National front | :18:05. | :18:11. | |
and later joined the BNP. In 20 2, left the BNP following a dispute | :18:12. | :18:14. | |
with its leader Nick Griffin. He followed her new group calldd the | :18:15. | :18:21. | |
British Democratic party but has given few interviews about his | :18:22. | :18:26. | |
record as an MEP. I said I would serve for five years, do my best | :18:27. | :18:30. | |
during those five years and at the end of it, retire. you only need to | :18:31. | :18:37. | |
see the people he surrounds himself with and his politics, the politics | :18:38. | :18:40. | |
of hate and the politics of division. He claims to have given | :18:41. | :18:49. | |
money to give `` to good catses but he declines to go into detahl about | :18:50. | :18:54. | |
which groups have received loney. Any group that has received money | :18:55. | :19:06. | |
from Aspel then be demonised. `` from this group will then bd | :19:07. | :19:12. | |
demonised. The mainstream political parties are hoping to defeat the BNP | :19:13. | :19:18. | |
at next month's European eldctions but that, as always, will bd a | :19:19. | :19:22. | |
decision for the voters. And that will be one of the big | :19:23. | :19:25. | |
talking points on this weekdnd's Sunday Politics from 11am on BBC | :19:26. | :19:33. | |
One. Hundreds of people lined thd streets | :19:34. | :19:36. | |
of Lincoln today to pay tribute to the winter paralympian Jade | :19:37. | :19:39. | |
Etherington. Jade toured thd city in an open top bus after winning four | :19:40. | :19:43. | |
medals in Sochi last month. She became the most successful British | :19:44. | :19:48. | |
woman in the history of the games. Jessica Lane reports. | :19:49. | :19:52. | |
An open top bus parade of Lhncoln lasting three hours can even take | :19:53. | :20:01. | |
its toll on a Paralympic athlete. My hands hurt from waving. Although | :20:02. | :20:04. | |
Lincolnshire's medal winner managed to keep going. This is the first | :20:05. | :20:12. | |
time I have been on an open top bus so it is ridding nice to have it for | :20:13. | :20:17. | |
me. It is really good to wax that all the schools and see everybody | :20:18. | :20:21. | |
come out. It is not the best day of the best weather. We are all a bit | :20:22. | :20:24. | |
windswept but it has been rdally fun so far. It was skiing like this | :20:25. | :20:27. | |
which won Jade Etherington three silvers and one bronze medal in the | :20:28. | :20:31. | |
Winter Games and the title of the most successful British wom`n in | :20:32. | :20:38. | |
Winter Paralympic history. Ht was an incredible achievement. Just to say | :20:39. | :20:44. | |
well done to her. It is fantastic. Because of Jade's visual impairment, | :20:45. | :20:51. | |
she did all her skiing with her guide Caroline Powell. Everxone is | :20:52. | :20:56. | |
saying that her guide is here in spirit and she is also here on the | :20:57. | :20:59. | |
back of this bus and people in Lincoln will be able to see the | :21:00. | :21:05. | |
special Jade and Caroline bts as it will be driving around the city on | :21:06. | :21:09. | |
certain Brits for the next xear As a country, we are reticent `t | :21:10. | :21:15. | |
celebrating success but she is a Lincolnshire girl, she had done | :21:16. | :21:19. | |
well, we have to celebrate where we have success in this county. Jade | :21:20. | :21:24. | |
qualifies as a teacher soon but says she still hasn't decided whdther to | :21:25. | :21:27. | |
keep skiing competitively. For now, she's enjoying being back in | :21:28. | :21:29. | |

to her. This is the surprisd. The big reveal of a well kept | :24:25. | :24:28. | |
secret. The cafe at Hull's @ge UK Centre designed to honour Jdan | :24:29. | :24:31. | |
Bishop, the queen bee of fundraising. Not a clue! Not | :24:32. | :24:45. | |
anything! I thought they wotld show me how nice things were. Pl`ns were | :24:46. | :24:50. | |
already afoot for the cafe to be dedicated to Jean when several feet | :24:51. | :24:53. | |
of water flooded Hull City centre in December, forcing the centrd to | :24:54. | :24:56. | |
close. After months of hard work, staff say Jean's reaction to the | :24:57. | :24:59. | |
surprise was well worth all the effort. It was lovely watchhng her | :25:00. | :25:07. | |
face. She has raised so much money for us. It is not just the loney, it | :25:08. | :25:12. | |
is the fact that she is such a lovely person. There are bed clues | :25:13. | :25:15. | |
everywhere you look ` from the menus to the staff uniforms and | :25:16. | :25:21. | |
decorations. And this is a whole wall of fame. And of course, last | :25:22. | :25:25. | |
year's ride of Britain award. Jean is well used to attention bx now. | :25:26. | :25:29. | |

checked she wasn't going to be the MP here but that would be the end of | :25:39. | :25:45. | |
me so I am safe for now. Shd doesn't think she is an amazing person but | :25:46. | :25:50. | |
everybody else does. She is a real inspiration to everybody, she is | :25:51. | :25:56. | |
tremendous. She is fantastic, lovely, I think she deserves it as | :25:57. | :26:02. | |
well. I can't take it in. Yds, it is lovely. Well done to Jean. She | :26:03. | :26:13. | |
should be on every night, a great tonic! | :26:14. | :26:15. | |

Calls for the government to do more to protect the supply of drtgs for | :26:25. | :26:27. | |
seriously ill patients. Tomorrow's weather: A bright start | :26:28. | :26:30. | |
but becoming largely cloudy. Mostly dry but there could be the odd spot | :26:31. | :26:34. | |
of rain. A light to moderatd breeze. Highs of 14 degrees Celsius, 57 | :26:35. | :26:42. | |
degrees Fahrenheit. And that film in the discussion about the | :26:43. | :26:49. | |
availability on drugs. Janet says, the trouble is patients do not know | :26:50. | :26:53. | |
which side effects they will get from new medication, especi`lly when | :26:54. | :26:56. | |
they have been one tab for ` time. Another person says these drugs are | :26:57. | :27:03. | |
cheaper. The GPs tell you they can no longer get them they are no | :27:04. | :27:07. | |
longer allowed to prescribe them and instead, they give you cheaper | :27:08. | :27:11. | |
versions. Someone else says, every month, I don't get a certain month | :27:12. | :27:15. | |
for my daughter. The essenthal drug is always out of stock. It hs a | :27:16. | :27:23. | |
constant worry. And Tracey says my son takes medicine daily for severe | :27:24. | :27:26. | |
allergies. We can only obtahn from one chemist in Hull. And finally, | :27:27. | :27:33. | |
