Good evening and welcome to BBC Look North.

It has been a dreary day today, the promise of brighter skies tomorrow.

:00:51.:00:57.

I will be back later with the details.

:00:58.:01:03.

A community in Lincolnshire is calling on the Government to

:01:04.:01:07.

intervene over plans to build two large power stations near to

:01:08.:01:09.

Villagers in Sutton Bridge claim their local council isn't being

:01:10.:01:24.

helpful enough and so last night held a referendum to

:01:25.:01:26.

But, as our Environment Correspondent,

:01:27.:01:29.

Paul Murphy, reports, there's no guarantee they'll be listened to.

:01:30.:01:33.

Savouring a victory, despite a late night organising the poll,

:01:34.:01:39.

campaigners were back at work this morning. They believe the result

:01:40.:01:43.

will send a clear message to the government that nothing less than a

:01:44.:01:47.

public inquiry is now needed into the proposed power stations for

:01:48.:01:51.

Sutton Bridge. We have already sent over 200 odd

:01:52.:01:55.

letters to the Secretary of State asking for the public inquiry, so

:01:56.:02:00.

the poll has now to add more weight to it. I don't see how they can

:02:01.:02:07.

actually refuse it now. This is an unusual event.

:02:08.:02:11.

On a 17% turnout, 600 people voted for the Secretary of State to

:02:12.:02:14.

intervene in the power station proposals.

:02:15.:02:18.

Seven against. One of the proposed plants is a ?300 million biomass

:02:19.:02:23.

power station near the village. It will needed to bring in thousands of

:02:24.:02:28.

tonnes of wood pellets by road and will be sited near to an existing

:02:29.:02:30.

facility. The other proposed plant facility. The other proposed plant

:02:31.:02:35.

is a gas`fired power station and it would mean this small Lincolnshire

:02:36.:02:38.

village would have three power stations on its doorstep, prompting

:02:39.:02:42.

fears about traffic, emissions and noise.

:02:43.:02:49.

In a statement, energy park Sutton Bridge, behind the wood`burning

:02:50.:02:51.

power station, said it would be subject to the very strictest

:02:52.:02:54.

controls from the Environment Agency and a comprehensive and positive

:02:55.:02:59.

independent assessment has already been undertaken by professional

:03:00.:03:04.

experts. The gas powered station EDF said if the station was to go ahead

:03:05.:03:09.

it would involve a peak of around 1005 had people during construction

:03:10.:03:13.

and a further 1200 indirect roles. It would involve the use of local

:03:14.:03:17.

companies and Labour were ever practicable.

:03:18.:03:20.

Campaigners believe the District Council does not have the necessary

:03:21.:03:24.

technical understanding to make the decision about these plans. They do

:03:25.:03:28.

not know where the fuel stop is coming from.

:03:29.:03:31.

They do not know what roads are going to be used. They know really

:03:32.:03:36.

nothing about the incinerator. The District Council has said it

:03:37.:03:40.

will not meant on a life planning matter. The government has told us

:03:41.:03:45.

it cannot intervene, but local people believe the results of last

:03:46.:03:48.

night's referendum cannot be ignored.

:03:49.:03:54.

I spoke to Vicky Ellis from Energy Live News and asked her why

:03:55.:04:02.

decisions on power stations are left to local politicians.

:04:03.:04:06.

Often they are left to local politicians because the powers that

:04:07.:04:10.

be think it may be easier for them to smooth the way with local

:04:11.:04:14.

communities they don't want it to seem like it is being rammed down

:04:15.:04:17.

the throats of the people who will end up with it in their back garden.

:04:18.:04:23.

I do think there has to be more strategy and talking to people

:04:24.:04:27.

directly so they feel involved... Who should make this decision? They

:04:28.:04:32.

feel it is too big for local councillors to rule on.

:04:33.:04:37.

Really, this might even be something the energy secretary might have two

:04:38.:04:45.

have a look at, or certainly the Department of energy have to have a

:04:46.:04:48.

strategy for renewable energy. If it is something we needed to power the

:04:49.:04:52.

country and that area, maybe they have two have a think about getting

:04:53.:04:56.

involved. How do you sell a power station to any rule or community?

:04:57.:05:00.

No one will choose to have won on their doorstep. Don't the energy

:05:01.:05:04.

companies have to do more and offer an incentive?

:05:05.:05:09.

Yes, often the offer incentives. `` often they do. In Cornwall, they

:05:10.:05:15.

offer a cheaper energy tariffs for people nearby the Della Baldwin

:05:16.:05:20.

farm. That is an option to get more buy in

:05:21.:05:26.

from the local community. Is it hard for local Conservative MPs to speak

:05:27.:05:28.

up when rule areas on this issue crash marked `` in rural areas?

:05:29.:05:36.

I don't think they have a public speaking up at all.

:05:37.:05:39.

Good to talk with you tonight, thank you.

:05:40.:05:43.

We would be keen to get your views on this one if you are in Sutton

:05:44.:05:47.

Bridge or elsewhere. Do you agree with the villagers that decisions

:05:48.:05:51.

like this should be made at a national level? Do you think that

:05:52.:05:56.

incentives would change your mind? What should they be? Do you trust

:05:57.:05:59.

local politicians to make the right decision?

:06:00.:06:12.

We look forward to hearing from you. Later on tonight's programme, how

:06:13.:06:21.

the residents of East Marsh in Grimsby reacted on being ranked the

:06:22.:06:26.

worst place to live in the country. Just because you do not own a house

:06:27.:06:31.

it does not mean it is a bad place to live.

:06:32.:06:34.

Honestly, I think it has gone down in the past few years. I have lived

:06:35.:06:37.

here all my life, if I thought it was that bad I would go elsewhere.

:06:38.:06:41.

Pupils across our area have been finding out their GCSE results.

:06:42.:06:44.

It's the first set of results since the Government reformed

:06:45.:06:46.

In Hull, the number of students receiving five grades of

:06:47.:06:51.

A* to C including Maths and English is 44% ` down from 49% last year `

:06:52.:06:55.

In the East Riding 60% of pupils got the grades.

:06:56.:07:01.

It was also 60% in Lincolnshire, and 57% in North and

:07:02.:07:07.

None of these authorities saw a significant change.

:07:08.:07:12.

Tolu Adeoye went to see how students did at a school in East Yorkshire.

:07:13.:07:22.

Nervous faces, trembling hands. Time to sneak a peek at the grades

:07:23.:07:28.

achieved after 11 years of full`time compulsory education.

:07:29.:07:33.

At Beverley high school, typical scene is reflected in schools across

:07:34.:07:40.

the area. There was joy... I got a lot of Bs and I am really

:07:41.:07:45.

happy. There was a relief... She was convinced she had failed

:07:46.:07:48.

quite a few, I am really proud of. There was some frustration...

:07:49.:07:54.

I just got degrades, worse than inspected.

:07:55.:07:57.

This morning has been about individuals, a chance to celebrate

:07:58.:08:03.

success or comfort to those who have not done as well as expected. The

:08:04.:08:08.

focus for staff now will turn to the school performance as a whole.

:08:09.:08:11.

Last year, Beverley high school was one of 15 in East Riding inspected

:08:12.:08:17.

after falling standards. Teachers believe today's results

:08:18.:08:21.

show progress. We are confident Ofsted will come

:08:22.:08:24.

back and judge us to be good. I am proud of the girls, they have worked

:08:25.:08:28.

ever so hard and they have been bombarded with changes from external

:08:29.:08:32.

sources and have coped really well with the demands. This years GCSE

:08:33.:08:37.

results are in the first following tinges to the exam system.

:08:38.:08:41.

Fewer pupils are sitting exams early because only the first result will

:08:42.:08:45.

count. All exams are taken at the end of two years instead of in

:08:46.:08:50.

modules and there have been changes in the assessment of certain

:08:51.:08:52.

subjects. In English, speaking and listening

:08:53.:09:00.

tests no longer count. I am not disappointed, I knew there

:09:01.:09:04.

would be a difference. We felt results would be depressed because

:09:05.:09:07.

of the system of marking that would be brought into place. But I do

:09:08.:09:12.

trust that head teachers and principals and teachers generally

:09:13.:09:14.

know their children, nor what is best for them and are in coding them

:09:15.:09:20.

to do what suits them. But not all schools have seen a

:09:21.:09:23.

negative impact. This school says results have gone

:09:24.:09:27.

up. There is talk about the volatility in the system at the

:09:28.:09:28.

moment. It is the first time we have had

:09:29.:09:32.

this new style examination, which makes it even more pleasing we have

:09:33.:09:38.

been able to increase our results. At least I have got my Cs to get

:09:39.:09:43.

into college. Pupils must now choose between sixth form, college,

:09:44.:09:48.

training or an apprenticeship. Whatever they choose, today's

:09:49.:09:51.

results are a significant step towards building their future.

:09:52.:09:58.

There've been no more reported cases of legionnaires disease in Grimsby

:09:59.:10:00.

Four people have been treated for the disease.

:10:01.:10:03.

The source of the infection hasn't been

:10:04.:10:05.

identified and doctors surgeries have been on alert for other cases.

:10:06.:10:08.

All those with the disease are responding to the treatment.

:10:09.:10:11.

There has been criticism of a report claiming the East Marsh

:10:12.:10:14.

area of Grimsby is the worst place to live in the country.

:10:15.:10:17.

The Daily Telegraph newspaper ranked it bottom in a list based on things

:10:18.:10:20.

And, though some say it deserves to be there, others think it doesn't

:10:21.:10:26.

take paint an accurate picture of life on East Marsh.

:10:27.:10:29.

According to the Daily Telegraph, this is the worst place to live in

:10:30.:10:45.

Britain, but standing in the garden of this block of flats you would not

:10:46.:10:51.

think it. Cathy has lived here in East Marsh for almost 40 years and

:10:52.:10:53.

says she can think of worst places to be.

:10:54.:10:57.

There are good places and bad places, good people and bad people

:10:58.:11:01.

in it. We all joining together year`round support each other.

:11:02.:11:05.

Where would you get that? Not in a big time because you would not know

:11:06.:11:12.

so many people. This is lovely. The report is based on five factors

:11:13.:11:15.

including health, income and whether people own their own houses. Some

:11:16.:11:20.

question whether that is an accurate way of deciding whether this is a

:11:21.:11:24.

good place to live. Some of the statistics used are up to eight

:11:25.:11:28.

years old. East Marsh Councillor Steve Beasant

:11:29.:11:30.

says there are other things they do not take into account. They do not

:11:31.:11:34.

say whether residents get on well together.

:11:35.:11:36.

They have a great deal of pride in their local community. In the

:11:37.:11:41.

future, East Marsh will be a very prosperous place because of course

:11:42.:11:44.

we have the renewable energy sector growing rapidly. There will be a

:11:45.:11:50.

great deal of jobs and employment in the area.

:11:51.:11:54.

Some streets have had a make over. Tortured drive now looks like this.

:11:55.:11:59.

There are new community facilities like the open door centre, too.

:12:00.:12:03.

Inside there were mixed views on whether this was the worst place to

:12:04.:12:06.

live. I would not choose to live there. I have no choice, really.

:12:07.:12:11.

This place and many other places like it are helping people in the

:12:12.:12:15.

area and that is a good thing and baby things will start to improve.

:12:16.:12:19.

I have lived here all my life, so if I thought it was that bad I would go

:12:20.:12:22.

elsewhere. There is no escaping the fact East

:12:23.:12:27.

Marsh has high on climate and a lower than average life expectancy,

:12:28.:12:31.

but people here see those numbers do not reflect their community spirit.

:12:32.:12:40.

The East Marsh area of Grimsby, voted the worst place in the country

:12:41.:12:43.

by the Daily Telegraph. If you live there or in Grimsby you

:12:44.:12:47.

may have a view on this, we would be keen to have your thoughts.

:12:48.:12:56.

Although we cannot read all of your messages out, we do read them here.

:12:57.:13:03.

Thanks to everyone who got in touch about signs being put up in Lincoln

:13:04.:13:06.

George in Hull says, "Students should have more consideration

:13:07.:13:12.

They can stay in bed until lunch time,

:13:13.:13:17.

These are signs, by the way, are quite small and high up on the post.

:13:18.:13:48.

I am sure that starts a whole new debate! Thank you very much indeed

:13:49.:13:54.

for all of those, we will have to wait and see if that works and is a

:13:55.:13:55.

success after freshers week. Eyes on the sky ` how

:13:56.:13:58.

the A15 was brought to a standstill And the football club paying fans to

:13:59.:14:03.

come through its turnstiles. Tonight's photograph was taken by

:14:04.:14:25.

John Bevan. That is a nice view, I think that is the first thing that

:14:26.:14:29.

area has been on the programme. Let me draw your attention to the

:14:30.:14:32.

saddest picture and e`mail of the year or of the last five years.

:14:33.:14:42.

This is of Mark's home and that is his fridge, and look what he has got

:14:43.:14:45.

pinned on his fridge door. It would be interested `` I would be

:14:46.:14:50.

interested to know what his wife thinks about that.

:14:51.:14:55.

What about that wall you have with all of the pictures of me?

:14:56.:14:56.

Yes, thank you! Paul will be returning during the

:14:57.:15:06.

week, he might give you less hassle. He will not know what to do with me.

:15:07.:15:12.

Tomorrow we have a brighter skies and a few showers, fairly hit and

:15:13.:15:16.

miss particularly in hand. On Saturday, a few showers in the east,

:15:17.:15:20.

otherwise dry and bright. Sunday is the same, a very chilly

:15:21.:15:25.

start. This area of low pressure will be bringing wet and windy

:15:26.:15:29.

conditions through Monday. We can see all the cloud earlier that

:15:30.:15:34.

spread down from the North. Still producing showers in places and will

:15:35.:15:37.

continue to do so though we should also see clear spells developing in

:15:38.:15:40.

the North, as well. Showers will tend to die out towards the end of

:15:41.:15:44.

the night as temperatures fall back to around tell `` ten or 11 in towns

:15:45.:15:51.

and cities. Not quite as low as last night because of the cloud cover.

:15:52.:15:57.

Sun will rise in the morning at 5:52am.

:15:58.:16:03.

Tomorrow there will be the odd shower now and again particularly

:16:04.:16:09.

later in the day but overall a good deal of dry weather and an

:16:10.:16:11.

improvement on today. Plenty of bright or sunny spells. It will feel

:16:12.:16:17.

cool, particularly out of the sunshine, but generally a warmer

:16:18.:16:22.

feel compared with today. Showers likely later in the day and the odd

:16:23.:16:28.

sharp one. It will feel pleasant in the sunshine but temperatures really

:16:29.:16:31.

disappointing for the time of year, 17 or 18 Celsius. Saturday and

:16:32.:16:39.

Sunday, very cold start, Matthew showers on Sunday, and settled for

:16:40.:16:41.

Monday. I am expecting a rush of pictures

:16:42.:16:48.

from people's fridge doors, but we are shutting up shop, I am sorry.

:16:49.:16:51.

Wright, see you tomorrow. It was a once`in`a`lifetime moment

:16:52.:16:55.

for thousands of aviation enthusiasts and veterans who

:16:56.:16:57.

witnessed this historic flypast over The Vulcan in the centre was flanked

:16:58.:16:59.

by the last two flying Lancasters. The planes had come together to mark

:17:00.:17:09.

a symbolic moment in the development of a new memorial

:17:10.:17:11.

centre to Bomber Command. Our reporter, Jake Zuckerman,

:17:12.:17:15.

is on the site just outside Lincoln How important was this fly`past?

:17:16.:17:27.

This was a very significant day for the team behind Lincolnshire Bomber

:17:28.:17:29.

Command memorial because it marks the beginning of the process of

:17:30.:17:32.

turning the dream of a memorial into a solid reality.

:17:33.:17:36.

As you can see from the view behind me it will be pretty spectacular, a

:17:37.:17:42.

Spire 102 feet tall will stand on this site where it could be seen for

:17:43.:17:46.

miles around, a fitting tribute to the men who gave their lives and

:17:47.:17:51.

died with Bomber Command. Two Lancasters and a Vulcan. A

:17:52.:18:00.

unique combination, one day that aviation enthusiasts will remember

:18:01.:18:00.

for years to come. As crowds gathered at RAF Waddington

:18:01.:18:06.

this morning, it quickly became clear that this once in a lifetime

:18:07.:18:08.

event was attracting far more spectators than had been expected.

:18:09.:18:11.

For many of those onlookers it had been an early start,

:18:12.:18:12.

but all agreed it was worthwhile. We travelled all the way down from

:18:13.:18:19.

Rochdale to see this. We set off at 5am this morning. Fairly tired, but

:18:20.:18:24.

it was well worth it. I finished work at 6am this morning,

:18:25.:18:30.

had two hours in bed and straight here. It is a once`in`a`lifetime

:18:31.:18:33.

opportunity to see this happen. It will not happen again in my

:18:34.:18:35.

lifetime, that is for sure. but all agreed it was worthwhile.

:18:36.:18:38.

Police warned drivers to avoid the A15 as all designated car parks

:18:39.:18:42.

filled up. As two distinctive shapes

:18:43.:18:44.

appeared in the sky, the road became an impromptu viewing area.

:18:45.:18:57.

At a site in nearby Canwick, veterans, fundraisers and serving

:18:58.:19:00.

airmen gathered to cut the first turf at what is to become the

:19:01.:19:02.

international Bomber Command Centre. A spire 102 feet tall

:19:03.:19:05.

representing the wingspan of a Lancaster Bomber will be surrounded

:19:06.:19:07.

by panels commemorating all those who died serving with Bomber Command

:19:08.:19:09.

during the Second World War. Nobody until quite recently had

:19:10.:19:18.

recognised the suffering and the contribution which was made by all

:19:19.:19:22.

of those guys who got up in an aeroplane.

:19:23.:19:25.

The last two flying Lancasters joined forces with the only flying

:19:26.:19:29.

Vulcan to over`fly the ceremony. It was an emotional moment

:19:30.:19:31.

for the veterans present, who included Jonny Johnson,

:19:32.:19:33.

the last surviving british veteran of the famous Dambusters raid.

:19:34.:19:39.

I think it is terrific. It is one of the best dedications, I think, to

:19:40.:19:53.

the 55,500 crew, air crew, that we lost during the war.

:19:54.:19:58.

Irrespective of the losses we were suffering, the boys still went up.

:19:59.:20:03.

When I saw those two Lancasters, over I shall remember it.

:20:04.:20:06.

It was a sight that's never likely to be repeated,

:20:07.:20:10.

a day like no other for the thousands who stopped to watch and a

:20:11.:20:13.

fitting tribute to those who served and died with bomber command.

:20:14.:20:17.

Of course, the reason this site was chosen for the memorial was because

:20:18.:20:23.

of the towers of Lincoln Cathedral that you can see behind me. Those

:20:24.:20:27.

were used as a navigational aid by crews finding their way back to base

:20:28.:20:31.

during the war. When they saw them they knew they were nearly home and

:20:32.:20:36.

pretty soon this site will be a memorial to those incredibly brave

:20:37.:20:39.

men. Again, thank you for all of the

:20:40.:20:43.

pictures that were sent during the afternoon on a very important day.

:20:44.:20:52.

In less than an hour, Hull city will be playing in the latest European

:20:53.:20:55.

adventure which is a trip to Belgium.

:20:56.:20:59.

The manager, Steve Bruce, says the demands of competing in the Europa

:21:00.:21:01.

League will not distract them from the Premier League.

:21:02.:21:05.

Our reporter is there and this report contains some flash

hour, brilliant so far, soaking it up.

:21:34.:21:36.

Everyone is having a good luck. Come on, the Tigers.

:21:37.:21:42.

Then there were those who went the extra mile.

:21:43.:21:46.

This man left on Monday on his bicycle. I cycled to Peterborough,

:21:47.:21:50.

Tuesday I cycled to Kent, Wednesday I came over there with the

:21:51.:21:55.

opportunity to see Hull city away in Europe was good and I am on to try

:21:56.:21:58.

and take it. He has not got a lot of money, that

:21:59.:22:01.

is why he has done it. I take my hat off to him.

:22:02.:22:08.

All 1200 way tickets were sold out for this match.

:22:09.:22:13.

But there could be many more Hull city fans here just to soak up the

:22:14.:22:17.

atmosphere. The team a are playing is no

:22:18.:22:21.

stranger to European football, but the Belgian Premier League side has

:22:22.:22:23.

never bitten an English team. For Hull city the journey began

physically wise, because we will need to be. They are a good side. As

:22:49.:22:52.

Tigers fans arrived at the ground tonight they know a good win could

put them on course for more overseas ties with some of your's elite

footballing sides. `` some of Europe's.

:23:01.:23:08.

You can hear full match commentary on BBC Radio Humberside, the

:23:09.:23:11.

kick`off is at 7:30pm tonight. You will often hear football fans

:23:12.:23:14.

complaining about the cost of going to what their team. 's `` Hull's

:23:15.:23:26.

newest non`league club is actually paying fans to turn up to watch

his team, Hull United AFC, Usually at the gates of a football

:23:33.:23:46.

ground, you have to pay to get in. But the non`league Hull United will

:23:47.:23:52.

pay you ?2 to support their side. I figure a lot of them were expecting

:23:53.:23:54.

it but some of them were surprised they were getting paid and some of

:23:55.:23:57.

those who knew they would refused to take it.

:23:58.:24:02.

Everyone has turned out, obviously for the free ?2, most keen for that.

:24:03.:24:08.

These are the two Michael Jamies. All former footballers who came up

with the idea. They have rebranded as struggling

:24:17.:24:19.

don't have a problem, the more people come, it is not rocket

:24:20.:24:23.

science, then rebuild a fan base and take it from there. Hull deserves a

:24:24.:24:30.

top nominated club. `` non`league club.

:24:31.:24:32.

In terms of the grassroots, people want a different option.

:24:33.:24:38.

At half`time, family members run the cafe and your ?2 goes along way.

:24:39.:24:44.

I go to Hull city all the time so it is nice to get the opportunity to

:24:45.:24:47.

come and see what it is like here. I think I will come again. This was

:24:48.:24:54.

Jamie's vision, even if it came at a cost.

:24:55.:24:56.

Supporters packing the standards and cheering on his footballers who play

for free. We were visiting relatives in the

:25:01.:25:03.

area. We come from the West Midlands but we saw the initiative in the

:25:04.:25:06.

newspaper and thought we would come along.

:25:07.:25:12.

They've got some clean players, they can get the passing round and it is

:25:13.:25:19.

really, really good. I am inspired. It extra supporters boost the

:25:20.:25:27.

morale? A four ` one victory means two wins

:25:28.:25:31.

in two for a team with their sights on promotion whatever the cost.

:25:32.:25:38.

Singer Michael win`win situation, great story, ?2 and you get to meet

Jill, as well. It's thought a puppy in Lincolnshire

thought he won't grow much bigger. He just did not grow. He just

:25:59.:26:11.

stopped growing, really. If you see his brothers comedy is about a

:26:12.:26:15.

quarter of the size. He was actually born with cleft

:26:16.:26:18.

palate, which meant he could not latch onto mum.

:26:19.:26:22.

We came in one day and he had been pushed out of the litter. He was on

CPR on him, got him going again, took him to the vet and said, just

persevered and see what you can do. I don't think he expected he would

survive very long. He has thrived. Finally, let us have recapture the

national and regional headlines. Let's get a recap of the national

:26:49.:26:50.

and regional headlines... New details emerge

about the death of an American journalist in Syria ` he was held

captive by three British jihadis. A community in Lincolnshire calls

stations in their village. Sunny spells and isolated showers, a

:27:01.:27:06.

gentle north`westerly breeze, top temperatures up to 16 Celsius.

:27:07.:27:12.

We have responses on the subject of the power station in Sutton Bridge

:27:13.:27:16.

we were talking about at the start of the programme.

:27:17.:27:19.

Jonathan says, give residents in a ten mile radius of the power station

:27:20.:27:24.

half`price on the energy bills. That will be a pittance to the

:27:25.:27:27.

energy companies and see how many objections there are.

:27:28.:27:30.

Another reviewer says I have lived there all my life, why do we need

:27:31.:27:35.

more power station when the existing one is not working at full power?

:27:36.:27:41.

Another viewer says, we will still end up fighting for it not to

happen. It will literally be in my back

yard. Thank you for watching, have a nice

evening. We're back at 10:25pm,
