again. Something to look forward to. That is all from the BBC News at

six. Good evening and welcome to BBC Look

North. The headlines tonight. Health experts say new smoking rules

could protect local children, but there is opposition to a change in

the law. I believe banning smoking at home is

an infringement of personal liberties.

Hull City fans say they will welcome supporters from Belgium despite

trouble at last week's match. Campaigners in Goole say there are

too many people renting rooms in the town and fight to stop another

development. The '50s movie star being remembered

in the east coast town where she was born.

I've detailed forecast follows shortly. `` A detailed forecast.

Ineffective and unenforceable ` that's how one Conservative MP from

our area has described plans to ban smoking in cars carrying children. A

consultation on the idea closed today with experts saying it could

improve the health of young people in Hull ` a city with one of the

highest smoking rates in the country. In a moment I'll be

speaking to Andrew Percy ` the MP for Brigg and Goole. But first our

Health Correspondent Vicky Johnson has this report.

well known but ARE children at particular risk when it comes to

breathing in cigarette fumes, especially in a car?

Deborah Parkinson is a senior stop`smoking specialist, working in

Hull. Their lungs are smaller, their

breathing rate is a lot more rapid and their immune system is much

more, needs much more development and that means they are a lot more

susceptible to things like respiratory disorders and also

things like ear infections, as well. Previous public health campaigns

have highlighted the hidden dangers. Over 80% of cigarette smoke is

invisible. No matter how careful you are, they

still breathe in the harmful poisons.

The toxins in smoke, things like arsenic, formaldehyde, carbon

monoxide, those become breathed in. In some areas of Hull, almost 50% of

people smoke but even here most of the ones we

spoke to say children in cars should not have to breathe in toxic fumes.

If it is made illegal then drivers who smoke, or allow others to smoke

when children are in their car, could face hefty fines.

Smokers' groups insist such a ban is Andrew Percy is the Conservative MP

for Brigg and Goole, he voted against the ban when it was debated

by MPs earlier this year. Why did you vote against this man?

``this ban. I asked my constituents and a narrow majority said that I

should oppose this band. ``this ban. This is because it is unenforceable.

Do you agree that smokers should have the right to choose and should

not be told what to do by the government, even though they are

subjecting their children to smoke? I think it was more about weather

this is enforceable or not. People see people driving at excessive

speeds and on mobile phones. Those lows are not being enforced. I

remember when we all drove around without seat belts on and when it

became law suddenly everybody had seat belts on. That was difficult to

enforce but it made us change our way of life. It is easier to enforce

seat belt. Spotting someone smoking can be very difficult and to spot

that they have children in the car. They can often be very small

children so to is a difficult thing to enforce. It should not take the

government to tell people they should not be smoking in cars. Let's

enforce what we have already. Some people do drive around with children

in cars. These levels are comparable with her smoke`filled pub. It is a

terrible thing and adapter thing to do but I would wonder if people who

are doing it now, this irresponsible behaviour, will do it because a

government says it has to be enforced.

Lots of you have been debating this story on our Facebook page, Don't

forget to like us on Facebook and you can have your say, too. Jackie

says, "They banned mobile phones in cars but certain people think it

doesn't apply to them! What makes the government think that type of

person will take any notice of this ban!?" Robert says, "People won't

adhere to it. Peter, "Like mobile phones in cars it won't be policed."

Janie says, "If you smoke in the car whilst your children are with you,

then you deserve to be fined. There is NO excuse."

Do you agree that smoking in cars with children in them should be

banned? Or is Andrew Percy right, is it impossible to police? Do you

think it should be a priority for officers? Or is it a law too far?

The headstones of those who fell during the First World War are

A murder investigation is under way after the death of a 39`year`old man

in Bridlington. He was found unconscious by police in Sewerby

Road just before 4.30 this morning and died shortly after at the scene.

Four men were arrested near Hornsea and are being questioned by police.

Yorkshire ambulance staff have voted to go on strike again as part of a

long running dispute over changes to shift patterns. The strike by

members of the Unite union will to start on Friday. Managers say there

are "robust contingency plans in place."

Roads in part of Lincoln, which were upgraded last year, are being

repaired after a fault was found. The County Council says it's found

some "minor issues" on sections of Newark Road. Work will start at the

beginning of September. It is always frustrating when things

don't go right first time. Sometimes it happens, unfortunately.

We need to get the material right for

the longer term so it will last as long as possible and value for money

for Lincolnshire County Council. Supporters of Hull City say visiting

European fans should be given a warm welcome to East Yorkshire despite

trouble after last week's game. The first leg against Lokeren last week

was marred by violence from banned Belgian hooligans following the

final whistle. Police here say they've reassessed their approach to

tomorrow's match but it will still be low`key. The Hull City manager,

Steve Bruce, says he wants fans from both sides to enjoy the game.

Phillip Norton reports. Hull City and Sporting Lokeren fans

enjoying Belgian hospitality together last week.

These pictures sum up the overall warm, friendly

atmosphere that surrounded the Tigers' 1`0 defeat in the first leg.

The Lokeren people have been fantastic.

They've welcomed us with open arms. We had a fantastic time. But the

authorities in Belgium now admit that a police escort forced

1200 Hull City fans past a pub full of known Lokeren troublemakers.

Bottles and chairs were thrown at Hull supporters,

a number were injured. The real welcome but not by an army

of riot police. We want to get the message out that we welcome a

friendly fans from Europe to enjoy the football match. Some supporters

feel similar facilities would help tomorrow. We want them to share and

enjoy our city when they come here and we had those privileges when we

went there. They made us feel very welcome and it was a very friendly

atmosphere and that is no doubt that they should be entitled to exactly

the same reception here and we hope that the Belgians feel very happy

and welcome here. a number were injured.

It soured what had been a great occasion but fans here want the city

to welcome their opponents and fans. A call backed by manager Steve

Bruce. The one thing you don't want to be

doing is having those ugly scenes we all saw on the TV.

doing is having those ugly scenes we all saw on the TV.

From what I'm hearing, we did nothing wrong,

the Hull supporters, and they kept their calm very, very well.

Let's hope there's no nonsense and any repeat of anything like that.

Let's enjoy the match and the game and enjoy

the occasion without any trouble. Humberside Police says it supports a

celebratory atmosphere, but will deal with any offences committed by

either set of fans proportionately and without discrimination.

Phillip is at the Port of Hull. When are the majority of the supporters

Hundreds of fans are getting on to ferries at European airports. They

will arrive first thing in the morning. The chances of any trouble

to model seen as a relatively low. It was a minority of Belgian fans

that instigated this trouble but Humberside Police say they are ready

for anything. They do not want to be seen to be over policing the event

that say they have enough resources on hand should anything happen to

guarantee everyone's safety. I met some of the Belgian fans in town

today. Tomorrow night we will be at the stadium.

The town of Goole is being turned into a ghetto by landlords who

convert rooms in family homes into bed`sits. That's the claim from a

leading councillor who says there needs to be a halt to similar

developments in the future. Hundreds of people in Goole live in single

rooms, but neighbours say they bring with them extra noise, rubbish and

parking problems. Jill Archbold reports. In this residential street

in Goole a number of homes are rented by the room. There are more

than 100 in the town ` known as Houses in Multiple Occupation. On

this street plans for one more ` and residents who describe these as

family homes ` are lining up to object.

CLIP. In planning documents To put nine people in the house is

too many. CLIP. In planning documents

In planning documents the developer says ` "it is the

landlord's ultimate objective to be selective with the choice of tenants

whilst providing good quality alternative essential housing for

professional multiple occupancy tenants who are employed within the

local community..." One local councillor says there are

too many multi`tenancy properties. It is not good for anybody in the

town when the town is in part being turned into a ghetto.

too many multi`tenancy properties. Meanwhile in Lincoln the

council may take steps to limit the number of multi`tenancy homes after

1000 objectors signed a petition.

Back in the East Riding, a decision is yet to be made over the plans for

this house ` but when it comes to licensing such homes for tenancy,

the council say they are working within legislation set by the

Government. Government.

Work is under way to repair headstones across East Yorkshire and

Lincolnshire which commemorate the lives of men who died in the First

their lives in the Great War are given a proper memorial. Damaged and

difficult to read, this headstone is one of more than

50 at Gainsborough Cemetery with inscriptions commemorating men who

died in the First World War. Many, like this one, are in a poor

state of repair. state of repair.

we could not read the memorial and it was in 23 pieces to be a fax to

pin it together and clean it so that we were able to read it. The project

is helping local people rediscover their family history. This woman had

no idea that her great uncle had died in the war. It is like finding

a long lost brother that you did not know existed. I come from quite a

large family and there are six of us and we are all very close so it is

the fact that family is important. state of repair.

The work in Gainsborough is just one of many restoration projects being

carried out across East Yorkshire and Lincolnshire to mark

the centenary of World War I. Memorials in North Ferriby and

Bempton in East Yorkshire and Glentham and Wootton in Lincolnshire

are among those under going repair. Lottery funding has provided

?10,000 to carry out the Gainsborough restoration.

Gainsborough does have its own war memorial, though there

are no names inscribed on it. The only places men are commemorated

in this their hometown is on headstones in the cemetery and

that is why, say volunteers, this project is so important.

of the Capital One Cup last night. The Iron lost 1`0 at home to

Reading ` who are managed by their former boss Nigel Adkins. The draw

for round three ` which will include Hull City ` takes place tonight.

An arts group in Holbeach St Marks is performing a play on the back of

a lorry. It's hoped by taking the theatre into parks and town centres

of Lincolnshire it will get children and some adults watching plays and

enjoying theatre for the first time. Here's our arts correspondent,

Anne`Marie Tasker. This may look like any other lorry but take few

steps backwards and you'll see it's been transformed

into an open air theatre to host the very first production of

a play called Fen Boy. This is the auditorium, a row

Of deckchairs. You do not have too rely on the language to understand

what is going on. I love it and it is really nice. We probably would

not have gone to the theatre but we have enjoyed it. Around 200 people

are watching this performance which has many more than if this had been

performed in the theatre. I love the fight will be nothing here in 15

minutes but it will be in the memory of the people.
