Good evening. If only they had been wearing seatbelts. The coroner | :00:08. | :00:12. | |
delivers his verdict on the Keswicks school bus crash. | :00:12. | :00:17. | |
He is keeping a tight rein on spending at Newcastle United but | :00:17. | :00:26. | |
Mike Ashley's sportsdirect.com's staff have a �48,000 gift to smile | :00:26. | :00:29. | |
about. And the doctors making a difficult | :00:29. | :00:39. | |
:00:39. | :00:42. | ||
decision about cancer. -- doctors. Lovely people here. | :00:42. | :00:46. | |
In sport, proof that the new football season is around the | :00:46. | :00:52. | |
corner and, just to make life confusing, it will ALloyd lookalike | :00:52. | :00:58. | |
caddying for one of our risings bars. -- in Lorraine battle royal | :00:58. | :01:08. | |
:01:08. | :01:09. | ||
Their deaths were accidental but 15-year-old Kieran Goulding and 16- | :01:10. | :01:13. | |
year-old Chloe Walker would probably still be alive today if | :01:13. | :01:18. | |
they had been wearing seatbelts. Those were the conclusions of the | :01:18. | :01:23. | |
coroner into the inquest of the Keswick school bus crash. He said | :01:23. | :01:29. | |
the most likely cause was that the driver of a car had fallen asleep | :01:29. | :01:34. | |
at the Biel. An officer described this as the | :01:34. | :01:39. | |
worst accident he had seen in 20 years. It busload of children from | :01:39. | :01:43. | |
the Keswick School involved in a crash on the way home. A car drove | :01:43. | :01:50. | |
head-on into them on May 24th last year. Two children were killed, | :01:50. | :01:55. | |
Kieran Goulding and Chloe Walker. At the inquest, the coroner said | :01:55. | :01:58. | |
that their lives could have been saved if they were readings seat | :01:58. | :02:07. | |
belts. -- wearing seatbelts. Neither could brace themselves and | :02:07. | :02:12. | |
were thrown through the window and crushed beneath the bus as it | :02:12. | :02:17. | |
tipped over. We need to get the message to | :02:17. | :02:22. | |
everyone, specifically young people on school transport, if there is a | :02:22. | :02:32. | |
:02:32. | :02:33. | ||
seat belt available, with it. -- wear it. The coroner said that the | :02:33. | :02:38. | |
bus driver did everything he could and that the culture of not wearing | :02:38. | :02:42. | |
seatbelts was to blame, not the legislation. | :02:42. | :02:45. | |
The inquest focused on why the driver was on the wrong side of the | :02:45. | :02:51. | |
road as he headed home from work. Today, the coroner said he believed | :02:51. | :02:58. | |
he has -- he was falling asleep at the wheel. It was a hot, sunny day. | :02:58. | :03:05. | |
After the inquest, Mr Short's family would have been shattered by | :03:05. | :03:09. | |
the consequences. Above all, I want to express our | :03:10. | :03:14. | |
peace -- deepest sympathy for the families of the children who died | :03:14. | :03:19. | |
and those who were injured and the driver of the coach. Patrick, more | :03:19. | :03:23. | |
than anyone, would be devastated at what happened. | :03:23. | :03:28. | |
Kieran Goulding's Mother was present throughout the inquest. In | :03:28. | :03:35. | |
a statement afterwards, she said, All I Want Is My beautiful boy home. | :03:35. | :03:42. | |
Chloe Walker's family said they had decided not to attend because she | :03:42. | :03:46. | |
was there happy, beautiful daughter and they did not want that | :03:46. | :03:52. | |
memorably tarnished. We have a lot of memories of that | :03:52. | :04:00. | |
day and of Cuban and Chloe. Their friends have felt that great loss. | :04:00. | :04:07. | |
-- Kieran and Chloe. In his closing comments, the | :04:07. | :04:12. | |
coroner said, the loss of bright, young talented people is a loss to | :04:12. | :04:22. | |
:04:22. | :04:28. | ||
us all. He recorded three verdicts Football fans might think he is | :04:28. | :04:31. | |
tight-fisted but those who work for him probably have a different | :04:31. | :04:37. | |
opinion. Mike Ashley, owner of Newcastle United. His company, | :04:37. | :04:43. | |
sportsdirect.com, has made profits in the last year of �200 million so | :04:43. | :04:47. | |
he has decided to share it is 7 million with the people that work | :04:47. | :04:57. | |
:04:57. | :04:59. | ||
in the company's shops. On average, they will receive �48,600. | :04:59. | :05:06. | |
The customers keep coming. Tennis racket and tennis balls. �13 | :05:06. | :05:12. | |
for BOP. I have bought shares for my friend's Dr. | :05:12. | :05:18. | |
Star Fun under instructions not to talk to reporters. -- staff are | :05:18. | :05:25. | |
under instruction. If the staff wanted footballs, they | :05:25. | :05:35. | |
:05:35. | :05:43. | ||
could buy 8722 of these. When we told the customers about the bonus | :05:43. | :05:48. | |
share payments, they thought we were talking rubbish. | :05:48. | :05:57. | |
You do not believe me? No. It is the truth. That is incredible. | :05:57. | :06:06. | |
you believe me. Know. It is the truth. How many people does he have | :06:06. | :06:14. | |
working for him? 2,000 people. On a visit to the region, the | :06:15. | :06:21. | |
deputy secretary of the TUC who took some convincing. I always | :06:21. | :06:24. | |
encourage the workers to read the small print and checked the detail | :06:24. | :06:29. | |
but by all accounts this is good news for those workers. But you | :06:30. | :06:34. | |
still find this hard to believe? These are tough times for working | :06:34. | :06:38. | |
people in Britain today so if there there is some good news, we should | :06:38. | :06:45. | |
celebrate. Of course this bonus is for | :06:45. | :06:50. | |
sportsdirect.com, not the football club. | :06:50. | :06:53. | |
In a tough retail world where figures have not been good this | :06:53. | :06:59. | |
week, it is great that Mike has posted those. Is it time to knock | :06:59. | :07:04. | |
on the door and ask? It might be. | :07:04. | :07:08. | |
The staff cannot cash in their shares for a year by which time | :07:08. | :07:18. | |
they might be worth more. The Darlington based care home | :07:18. | :07:22. | |
company Southern Cross has withdrawn plans to make 3,000 staff | :07:22. | :07:26. | |
redundant. The company announced earlier this week it was being | :07:26. | :07:36. | |
wound up. It is aiming to see all 750 homes transferred to other | :07:36. | :07:41. | |
landlords. It postman who was allegedly bitten | :07:41. | :07:45. | |
by a dog owned by a top jobs has been told there would be no | :07:45. | :07:52. | |
prosecution because it happened on private land. The 57-year-old | :07:52. | :07:57. | |
cannot be prosecuted under the dangerous Dogs Act because the | :07:57. | :08:01. | |
incident took place in a private garden. | :08:01. | :08:11. | |
In 1987, Julia Booth, in BBC presenter, had a double mastectomy. | :08:11. | :08:18. | |
Her doctors are now aiming to find out if they also have the mutated | :08:18. | :08:22. | |
gene and if they would opt to have the operation. | :08:22. | :08:29. | |
Julia Booth lost her mother at 18 years old. Many years later, a test | :08:29. | :08:35. | |
suggested she had and 85% chance of developing the disease as well. She | :08:35. | :08:42. | |
had both breasts removed. I feel fantastic about everything. | :08:42. | :08:47. | |
I really do. 14 years later, another documentary is following | :08:47. | :08:53. | |
her daughter's. Have they also inherited the role Jean? | :08:53. | :09:01. | |
I wish they were older. It is a world of difference. I feel sad for | :09:01. | :09:04. | |
her that she should have to think about these kind of things when she | :09:04. | :09:12. | |
should just be having a good time. I have done a fair bit of partying. | :09:12. | :09:22. | |
:09:22. | :09:23. | ||
But she has had to grow up a bit. In the film, Lucy takes the test to | :09:23. | :09:30. | |
find out her likelihood of developing the cancer. | :09:30. | :09:34. | |
This stands for the breast cancer gene number one... | :09:34. | :09:39. | |
They come across very well in the film, very emotionally open. I am | :09:39. | :09:47. | |
immensely proud of them. They are wonderful. I think they are brave. | :09:47. | :09:52. | |
Whatever they have to face, they will say sit in a loving family | :09:52. | :09:59. | |
environment. You make it sound like the Waltons! | :09:59. | :10:08. | |
You can find out the result of the tests on tonight's programme. | :10:08. | :10:15. | |
That documentary is on BBC Three tonight at 9pm. | :10:15. | :10:21. | |
The company that had been in Darlington since 1874 but the up | :10:21. | :10:26. | |
market conservatory maker Amdega went bust earlier this year. | :10:26. | :10:30. | |
Observatories that would have cost tens of thousands of Pounds went | :10:30. | :10:37. | |
for hundreds but there has also been good news for the workers. | :10:37. | :10:43. | |
The last remnants of Amdega awaiting auction. The final sale of | :10:43. | :10:46. | |
work from the world's oldest Conservative a company that was | :10:46. | :10:53. | |
brought down by a lack of sales. A company that has acquired the stock | :10:53. | :10:58. | |
has had no lack of interest. We have had a lot of interest in | :10:58. | :11:08. | |
:11:08. | :11:10. | ||
this auction. We had people on side, generally interested in the name. | :11:10. | :11:15. | |
Amdega represents craftsmanship that might not be repeated. So much | :11:15. | :11:21. | |
for the stock, what about the workers? 200 have lost their jobs. | :11:21. | :11:29. | |
20 have been -- 20 have been taken on by this timber company. | :11:29. | :11:33. | |
They have adapted very well and they are used to working with | :11:33. | :11:36. | |
timber which is important for us so it has not been a difficult | :11:36. | :11:42. | |
transition for them. We have gained additional skills to help her | :11:42. | :11:47. | |
existing team. For these people the new job is a | :11:47. | :11:52. | |
big relief. I was worried because I was struggling to find a team | :11:52. | :11:56. | |
leadership role. It was more operators and production workers | :11:56. | :12:00. | |
but with the opportunity to come here, and see the new products they | :12:00. | :12:06. | |
have, it was a massive opportunity for myself. | :12:06. | :12:11. | |
While Amdega might have gone, although they have been Bob's in | :12:12. | :12:21. | |
:12:22. | :12:23. | ||
name, at least these trade skills will move on. -- bought. Still to | :12:23. | :12:28. | |
come, the Antiques Roadshow and antique fish and chips. And the | :12:29. | :12:33. | |
novel way to keep an eye on your sheep. | :12:33. | :12:38. | |
There have been sunglasses on a cross Northumbria today. But soon | :12:38. | :12:48. | |
:12:48. | :12:48. | ||
you might need one of these again. I will have the weather forecast. | :12:48. | :12:53. | |
In television terms, it is an antique itself but the BBC's | :12:53. | :12:57. | |
Antiques Road Show draws the crowds wherever it goes. Hundreds of | :12:57. | :13:01. | |
people turned up a Northumberland today to have their heirlooms | :13:01. | :13:07. | |
valued by some of Britain's leading experts and of course to meet the | :13:07. | :13:15. | |
The subtle build up of anticipation. They eager excitement. The chance | :13:15. | :13:18. | |
to find out whether that old painting your Aunt Gertrude left | :13:18. | :13:22. | |
you is actually worth more than your house. It is the bread and | :13:22. | :13:26. | |
butter of the Antiques Roadshow and the ingredients that has made it a | :13:26. | :13:35. | |
TV classic. I have seen quite a few interesting things, but our hearts | :13:35. | :13:40. | |
the most interesting thing is a box of religious relics. | :13:40. | :13:43. | |
Today's show was filmed at Seaton Deleval Hall in Northumberland. It | :13:43. | :13:46. | |
is the fourth series to be fronted by BBC newsreader and presenter | :13:46. | :13:56. | |
:13:56. | :13:57. | ||
Fiona Bruce. She has seen some pretty unsual things in that time. | :13:57. | :14:00. | |
Some of the things are a bit gruesome to actually mention on | :14:00. | :14:10. | |
:14:10. | :14:15. | ||
television. We actually saw some body parts once. They were used for | :14:15. | :14:19. | |
medical experiments, but some people actually keep them for | :14:19. | :14:26. | |
parlour games. I suspect the have too much time on their hands. | :14:26. | :14:29. | |
But some come out with better news than others and some of those will | :14:29. | :14:36. | |
walk away potentially richer than when they came. There is a | :14:36. | :14:41. | |
photograph of Charles Darwin in here, which by itself is very | :14:41. | :14:48. | |
interesting. I think this one is worth about �500 and this one about | :14:48. | :14:52. | |
�500. This new series will be on air in | :14:52. | :15:01. | |
the autumn. From Easter year, we are coming bang up-to-date. | :15:01. | :15:04. | |
It is a technological advance that could send shivers through | :15:04. | :15:06. | |
sheepdogs. Farmers in the North Pennines are testing a remote | :15:06. | :15:09. | |
controlled drone that can spy on their sheep from the skies. And | :15:09. | :15:12. | |
there are hopes the Flying Shepherd could also help the emergency | :15:12. | :15:15. | |
services. It is wild, beautiful and remote in | :15:15. | :15:19. | |
the Pennines around Alston. The moors stretch for miles. But there | :15:19. | :15:28. | |
can be a savage kick in the winters here for hard-pressed hill farmers. | :15:28. | :15:31. | |
The last couple of years have been extremely bad, because there has | :15:31. | :15:39. | |
been so much snow. It snowed for about two months last year, which | :15:39. | :15:43. | |
made getting around very difficult. It was more difficult to see the | :15:43. | :15:50. | |
animals. When the weather is bad, it does make are always much more | :15:50. | :15:53. | |
difficult. So could futuristic technology in | :15:53. | :16:03. | |
:16:03. | :16:05. | ||
the shape of a drone solve an old problem? If farmers to find it that | :16:05. | :16:13. | |
this technology is affordable and works, the Joan will fly for about | :16:13. | :16:17. | |
40 minutes, giving them plenty of time to discover lost animals. | :16:17. | :16:21. | |
And this is how the Flying Shepherd works. Pictures beamed back to a | :16:21. | :16:30. | |
laptop. You still cannot beat the dog and respect for finding lost | :16:30. | :16:35. | |
animals, but for farmers on very big estates, it could be very | :16:35. | :16:39. | |
useful. Cost is a problem, but it is | :16:40. | :16:49. | |
:16:50. | :16:53. | ||
believed the emergency services could also use it. What a clever | :16:53. | :17:00. | |
idea. Now, time for sport and football is back! | :17:00. | :17:03. | |
Believe it or not, in only a month's time the new Premier League | :17:03. | :17:07. | |
season will be underway. And last night in the York sunshine, the | :17:07. | :17:10. | |
first visible signs that football, to the delight of some and the | :17:10. | :17:15. | |
horror of others, is just round the corner. | :17:15. | :17:18. | |
They were not exactly feeding the 5,000 at Bootham Crescent last | :17:18. | :17:21. | |
night, but that is how many fans there were for York City's pre- | :17:21. | :17:24. | |
season friendly with Sunderland. A nice little earner for a Conference | :17:24. | :17:31. | |
club desperate for a return to the Football League. A it is the best | :17:31. | :17:34. | |
squad we have since we were relegated to the conference the | :17:34. | :17:38. | |
years ago. We had a decent team last year, but I think we will | :17:38. | :17:43. | |
score more goals this season, which is what we need. | :17:43. | :17:45. | |
Sunderland fans seemed generally pleased with Steve Bruce's nine | :17:45. | :17:55. | |
:17:55. | :17:57. | ||
summer signings. There is a lot of experience there. I hope Gaga will | :17:57. | :18:01. | |
chip in with a few midfield goals, which is where are problems where | :18:01. | :18:09. | |
on show last night, although several experienced players | :18:09. | :18:11. | |
returned from long-term injuries. Sunderland went ahead through Phil | :18:11. | :18:14. | |
Bardsley, but it was one of several youngsters given a run out, French | :18:14. | :18:17. | |
striker Oumare Tounkara, who grabbed the second with a cool | :18:17. | :18:18. | |
finish. After being denied a first half | :18:19. | :18:21. | |
penalty, York deservedly got their consolation from the spot after the | :18:21. | :18:31. | |
:18:31. | :18:38. | ||
It is not so much about the result tonight, but getting us going where | :18:38. | :18:48. | |
:18:48. | :18:50. | ||
we want to be going. Newcastle United seen the cash to buy a top- | :18:50. | :18:57. | |
class striker is still available. The manager is remaining Phyllis | :18:57. | :19:02. | |
was philosophical about the decision by a US authorities to | :19:02. | :19:11. | |
deny a jury Barton a work visa. were weary that he might not get a | :19:11. | :19:16. | |
visa when we were organising the trip. But he knows our game inside | :19:16. | :19:26. | |
:19:26. | :19:27. | ||
out, so he will go on the chat with the development squad to Holland. | :19:27. | :19:30. | |
It is not so much of a major disruption. | :19:30. | :19:33. | |
Golf now and one of our region's rising stars Jack Hermeston, from | :19:33. | :19:36. | |
the City of Newcastle club, is bidding for victory at the England | :19:36. | :19:39. | |
Boys' Under-16 Open at South Moor Golf Club in County Durham this | :19:39. | :19:41. | |
afternoon. Coincidentally, Graeme Storm, the | :19:41. | :19:44. | |
only North East player to win the England Boys Under-16 Open, 17 | :19:44. | :19:52. | |
years ago, is playing in the Open level par, one ahead of Ashington's | :19:52. | :19:55. | |
Ken Ferrie. Best of all was York's Simon Dyson, | :19:55. | :19:57. | |
here with this birdie, carded an impressive round of 68, putting him | :19:58. | :20:07. | |
:20:08. | :20:08. | ||
Ultimate frisbee, free running and street cheer certainly were not | :20:08. | :20:11. | |
part of the sports curriculum when I was a school. But children at a | :20:12. | :20:15. | |
school in North Shields got the chance to try some of them out | :20:15. | :20:18. | |
today. It is all part of a campaign by fashion store Matalan and | :20:18. | :20:26. | |
Britain's greatest Olympian to help our youngsters get more out of PE. | :20:26. | :20:30. | |
Sporty or not, you cannot fail to be impressed by the achievements of | :20:30. | :20:35. | |
Sir Steve Redgrave. The school pupils listened as the five time | :20:35. | :20:40. | |
Olympic champion talk about his life. He wants to help them | :20:40. | :20:50. | |
:20:50. | :20:51. | ||
transform their lives as well. is not about Mrs Sally performing | :20:51. | :20:57. | |
at the sort of level I got to, but it is about participating and | :20:57. | :21:05. | |
having fun. Things like this ultimate frisbee look good fun and | :21:05. | :21:14. | |
it may be my comeback Sport! I will certainly give it a goal. It is | :21:14. | :21:19. | |
good that everyone is learning all together and when she get there has | :21:19. | :21:27. | |
not hang of it, you have got it. Paul flea, they will go on to do a | :21:28. | :21:36. | |
range of different sports that they have not tried before. The emphasis | :21:36. | :21:42. | |
in this is also about training their teachers. Primary-school | :21:43. | :21:52. | |
:21:53. | :21:53. | ||
teachers only get a few hours of training in this respect. While | :21:53. | :21:58. | |
Steve was not top dog at ultimate frisbee, he is the favourite to | :21:58. | :22:03. | |
light the Olympic torch in London next year. But he is not banking on | :22:03. | :22:11. | |
it. I am not banking on it. It is the great honour to even be thought | :22:11. | :22:16. | |
about to be doing that. It would be lovely if I was chosen. | :22:16. | :22:19. | |
Cricket now and Yorkshire have claimed a key victory in the County | :22:19. | :22:21. | |
Championship, beating fellow strugglers Worcestershire at | :22:21. | :22:23. | |
Scarborough for only their second championship win of the season. Joe | :22:23. | :22:27. | |
