But now on BBC One it's time for the news where you are.

:00:00.:00:09.

Around 75 workers who lost their jobs in Brookenby three days before

:00:10.:00:13.

Christmas have been told that the company won't be able

:00:14.:00:16.

Fishgate, which made meals for supermarkets,

:00:17.:00:21.

Staff have received a letter saying they'll have to apply

:00:22.:00:25.

to a government fund for wages and anyone wanting redundancy

:00:26.:00:29.

payments will have to apply to the administrators along

:00:30.:00:32.

People living near a building in Grimsby which was at the centre

:00:33.:00:37.

of a safety scare say they're disappointed that it's

:00:38.:00:40.

Flats next to the Victoria Mills building in the town had to be

:00:41.:00:45.

evacuated earlier this year because it was moving in high winds.

:00:46.:00:49.

North East Lincolnshire Council, which has been unable to trace

:00:50.:00:55.

the owner, says work should be finished in the spring.

:00:56.:00:58.

Veterans from around Europe have praised a support

:00:59.:01:00.

group which started in an East Yorkshire garage.

:01:01.:01:03.

The Barkers Breakfast Club began in Hull in 2007.

:01:04.:01:06.

But it's been copied across Britain and the Continent.

:01:07.:01:13.

in six European countries and even in Australia.

:01:14.:01:15.

This is where it all started - the Barker's garage

:01:16.:01:19.

A simple idea - a bacon butty, a brew and a chance to talk.

:01:20.:01:25.

Pull jokes on each other and just have a good laugh, you know.

:01:26.:01:34.

And it's a scene being replicated across the country

:01:35.:01:38.

Brittany tends to be an awful lot of British people living out here.

:01:39.:01:49.

The majority of people actually are ex-forces.

:01:50.:01:53.

If we have information that helps out veterans,

:01:54.:01:59.

it becomes a very good meeting place to try and disseminate

:02:00.:02:02.

We currently have 77 members ranging from 80 years old to 40 years old.

:02:03.:02:12.

We have people who suffer from depression and PTSD.

:02:13.:02:15.

We support one another with general banter

:02:16.:02:18.

that they would have been used to when they were in the forces.

:02:19.:02:21.

The Hull branch showed World War II RAF veteran Ted Fullerton

:02:22.:02:24.

And the Market Rasen branch has welcomed this man, Horst Jackson,

:02:25.:02:29.

who served on a German U-boat in the same war.

:02:30.:02:33.

Whether you are in a submarine, air force or army, it doesn't matter.

:02:34.:02:38.

Once you have been in, you have seen some things you don't like,

:02:39.:02:42.

So what does the man who started it all make of its success?

:02:43.:02:50.

It's kind of humbling, because the amount of people

:02:51.:02:53.

the breakfast clubs are helping, veterans it is helping...

:02:54.:02:55.

We have heard for years about the disadvantages that

:02:56.:03:00.

veterans have when they come back to civvy street.

:03:01.:03:02.

Because they don't know their way around.

:03:03.:03:05.

And Dereck now hopes that every serviceman leaving

:03:06.:03:07.

the forces will be signposted to a breakfast club.

:03:08.:03:15.

In football, Hull City face one of the toughest games of the season

:03:16.:03:18.

on Boxing Day when they meet Manchester City at the Kcom Stadium.

:03:19.:03:21.

The Tigers are bottom of the Premier League

:03:22.:03:23.

and are overwhelming favourites to be relegated, but there

:03:24.:03:26.

is belief that they can stay in the top flight.

:03:27.:03:30.

Sadly, our last three games, it has been fine margins.

:03:31.:03:36.

Certainly another five points and it would have been that we would have

:03:37.:03:39.

been right in the mix, three points off it.

:03:40.:03:41.

We will do what we have always done and that is,

:03:42.:03:54.

:03:55.:03:57.

A very mild day to come for Christmas Day.

:03:58.:04:10.

It is blustery at the moment, perhaps a little dampness

:04:11.:04:14.

but our part of the world should stay largely dry.

:04:15.:04:17.

Very overcast and it will get milder overnight.

:04:18.:04:18.

Look at these temperatures for Christmas Day.

:04:19.:04:20.

Fairly cloudy but the main feature of the weather will be

:04:21.:04:34.

Looking to Boxing Day, it will still be breezy but cooler,

:04:35.:04:40.

so bright and breezy, a refreshing day

:04:41.:04:41.

The theme for the rest of the Christmas week -

:04:42.:04:45.

lots of settled weather, it will be much cooler,

:04:46.:04:47.

the breeze will be lighter and we may start to have problems

:04:48.:04:50.

That's all from us. Look North is back on Boxing Day. Have a lovely

:04:51.:05:01.

Christmas. Hello. Nice and toasty both inside

:05:02.:05:21.

and out. It even struggling to snow across the Scottish hills, it's so

:05:22.:05:26.

mild outside, whether you like it or not. It's all thanks to this storm,

:05:27.:05:30.

big windstorm in the North Atlantic. It is drawing up warm air from the

:05:31.:05:35.

southern climes. You can see the Azores, warm air moving in our

:05:36.:05:40.

direction. It's here to stay. Just in time for Christmas. Cloudy with

:05:41.:05:44.

bits of rain in the centre pushing through across parts of Scotland,
