People living in a Lincolnshire village say the only way | :00:09. | :00:12. | |
to save their pub is to buy it themselves. | :00:13. | :00:15. | |
The Sebastapol Inn in Minting closed last August, but it is now hoped | :00:16. | :00:19. | |
the community can raise more than ?250,000 to buy it. | :00:20. | :00:24. | |
The Campaign for Real Ale says there are now around 70 pubs | :00:25. | :00:27. | |
across the UK that are owned and run by their local community. | :00:28. | :00:31. | |
For six months, this pub in Minting near Horncastle has been closed. | :00:32. | :00:38. | |
But now, locals are being encouraged to buy shares, with the aim | :00:39. | :00:42. | |
of raising enough money for the community to buy it. | :00:43. | :00:46. | |
To have it closed, with a sign across, with a red sign | :00:47. | :00:49. | |
You know, it's a village, and there are surrounding villages, | :00:50. | :00:53. | |
that really don't have, you know, a lot of services, | :00:54. | :00:57. | |
and we think it's really important to maintain this service. | :00:58. | :01:00. | |
Because I want the pub to stay open in this village, I want a centre | :01:01. | :01:07. | |
I think the village feel it needs to be a village pub again. | :01:08. | :01:13. | |
You know, the hub of the village, maybe a shop, something like that, | :01:14. | :01:16. | |
you know, that's what we're looking forward to it being. | :01:17. | :01:20. | |
But Minting isn't the only community to want to run its local. | :01:21. | :01:24. | |
This pub in Hainton on the edge of the Lincolnshire Wolds was taken | :01:25. | :01:27. | |
over by a community group five years ago, to save it from closure. | :01:28. | :01:34. | |
The Campaign for Real Ale says around 21 pubs a week | :01:35. | :01:37. | |
The Chairman of the community group here told me he is glad | :01:38. | :01:43. | |
they have managed to save this one. | :01:44. | :01:46. | |
Our primary aim was to keep the place open for community events. | :01:47. | :01:50. | |
And we've done so well that we, you know, we can do that, | :01:51. | :01:57. | |
and hopefully we can keep it going for a lot more years. | :01:58. | :02:01. | |
Back in Minting, the current owners of the Sebastapol Inn told me | :02:02. | :02:04. | |
they would be delighted if the community could buy it. | :02:05. | :02:08. | |
There are now around 70 pubs across the UK that are owned and run | :02:09. | :02:11. | |
by the local community, and some here are hoping | :02:12. | :02:15. | |

An investigation is under way into the cause of a large fire | :02:23. | :02:25. | |
It broke out at an abattoir on Heath Road last night. | :02:26. | :02:32. | |
People living close to the site were told to keep their windows | :02:33. | :02:37. | |
and doors shut because of burning plastic and possible | :02:38. | :02:39. | |

A piece of music specially commissioned for | :03:03. | :03:03. | |

Six Thousand Pipes was written by Sir Karl Jenkins, | :03:09. | :03:11. | |
whose pieces are performed across the world. | :03:12. | :03:14. | |
The composition celebrates the locally made organ | :03:15. | :03:16. | |
at Hull's City Hall and took inspiration from the city's history. | :03:17. | :03:22. | |
Well, it was a fantastic opportunity, yes. | :03:23. | :03:25. | |
I mean, the City of Culture is an amazing thing. | :03:26. | :03:27. | |
And to be part of it was wonderful, that I was asked to write | :03:28. | :03:31. | |
an organ piece for Jonathan Scott, for this organ. | :03:32. | :03:35. | |

While Lincoln City won 2-0 against Boreham in the FA Trophy. | :04:20. | :04:27. | |
Let's take a look at the weather - here's Abbie with the forecast. | :04:28. | :04:30. | |
Just a couple of showers, really, spreading into the far north | :04:31. | :04:34. | |
Something a little more persistent as we head | :04:35. | :04:37. | |
through to the early hours, but then easing, so we should | :04:38. | :04:40. | |
Quite cloudy overnight though, with those temperatures | :04:41. | :04:43. | |
not dropping too low, to about five or six Celsius. | :04:44. | :04:45. | |
And a better start to the day tomorrow, dry and bright for most | :04:46. | :04:49. | |
with some sunny spells during the morning. | :04:50. | :04:50. | |
But then, we will see a band of rain arriving through the afternoon. | :04:51. | :04:53. | |
The winds will pick up once this rain arrives. | :04:54. | :04:56. | |
It will be quite heavy and persistent | :04:57. | :04:57. | |
Hope you can join us then, goodbye for now. | :04:58. | :05:12. | |
Good evening. Starting with a quick look at the satellite sequence from | :05:13. | :05:21. | |
earlier. We started under a big blanket of cloud but Scotland and | :05:22. | :05:24. | |
Northern Ireland brightened up as the day went off. Underneath the | :05:25. | :05:28. | |
cloud in England and Wales, quite a bit of rain at the moment, drifting | :05:29. | :05:34. | |
southwards and East. It will continue to do so. In the small | :05:35. | :05:38. | |
hours the rain will become patchy, and most will give way to the | :05:39. | :05:42. | |
continent. There will be some breaks, particularly to the East of | :05:43. | :05:46. | |
Scotland, where there could be a touch of frost. Next batch of rain | :05:47. | :05:51. | |
into the western side of Scotland first thing, moving east with a | :05:52. | :05:56. | |
little snow over higher ground. Another pulse of rain | :05:57. | :05:57. |
