Welcome to the programme. In the programme tonight: Don't leave us | :00:05. | :00:09. | |
in a lay-by in labour. Opposition mounts to plans to reduce maternity | :00:09. | :00:13. | |
services in North Yorkshire. Also tonight: Copycat rioters are | :00:13. | :00:16. | |
spared jail after attacking a police station. | :00:16. | :00:19. | |
Have you been chugged? Calls for regulation of so-called charity | :00:20. | :00:25. | |
muggers. And a little too real for comfort. | :00:25. | :00:28. | |
A new simulation training unit for health staff gives a hairy biker | :00:28. | :00:32. | |
more than he thought he had signed up for. | :00:32. | :00:36. | |
Nothing quite so dramatic in sport but plenty to look forward to. We | :00:36. | :00:39. | |
will meet the students on the FA Cup trail and find out why the | :00:39. | :00:49. | |

Black Cats and the Boro aren't the 300 people packed a public meeting | :00:55. | :00:58. | |
in North Yorkshire last night in protest at plans to slash maternity | :00:58. | :01:02. | |
and children services at a hospital. Some expectant mothers might have | :01:02. | :01:05. | |
to travel nearly 70 miles if changes are made at the Friarage | :01:05. | :01:10. | |
Hospital in Northallerton. The South Tees Hospital Trust says the | :01:10. | :01:12. | |
moves are necessary due to recruitment problems and new | :01:12. | :01:18. | |
standards demanded by the Royal College. | :01:18. | :01:22. | |
It has never been straightforward having babies in a rural area. | :01:22. | :01:26. | |
Vicky is expecting hers in July. The maternity ward is nearly 40 | :01:26. | :01:34. | |
miles away but at least they are expecting her. And down as high | :01:34. | :01:38. | |
risk this time because of what happened in the previous pregnancy | :01:38. | :01:43. | |
so again, at the moment, everything is fine but I'm only in the early | :01:43. | :01:48. | |
stages of pregnancy so later on, conditions could happen. | :01:48. | :01:53. | |
But the Friarage Hospital may not be available for much longer. | :01:53. | :01:56. | |
Vicky's a high risk pregnancy and the trust which runs the hospital | :01:56. | :01:59. | |
is proposing that those would-be mums are sent elsewhere. The plan, | :01:59. | :02:01. | |
together with others to make children's services day-care only, | :02:01. | :02:04. | |
has caused an uproar. There were more than 300 people at a public | :02:04. | :02:07. | |
meeting in Northallerton last night. It's all up for consultation but | :02:07. | :02:10. | |
that hasn't stopped it being the talk of small communities all over | :02:10. | :02:13. | |
the Dales. From here in Hawes, it could mean expectant mums | :02:13. | :02:15. | |
travelling much further to hospitals on Teesside in York, | :02:15. | :02:24. | |
Harrogate and Leeds. The anxiety, the peace of mind of young, | :02:24. | :02:28. | |
expectant mothers having to travel that sort of distance means that I | :02:28. | :02:32. | |
think it would completely upset their joyful experience of having a | :02:32. | :02:38. | |
birth. Quite clearly, we are going to be entering into the land of | :02:38. | :02:41. | |
lay-by births because many will not make it. Mums like Natasha know how | :02:41. | :02:45. | |
close things can be even under the existing arrangements. Huffing and | :02:45. | :02:50. | |
puffing in the back seat over the hills and dales expert trying not | :02:50. | :02:55. | |
to give birth in the car or and I just needed to A&E. And then | :02:55. | :03:02. | |
there's the kids. 30 minutes makes a lot of difference if your child | :03:02. | :03:08. | |
is having difficulties. I think we could lose out on services like | :03:08. | :03:18. | |
:03:18. | :03:18. | ||
that. Last August you might remember riots and widespread | :03:18. | :03:21. | |
looting of shops occurred in London and some other cities around the | :03:21. | :03:26. | |
country. The North escaped apart from one incident on Wearside. | :03:26. | :03:28. | |
Today three teenagers who attacked Washington police station and | :03:29. | :03:37. | |
torched a police car with petrol bombs walked free from court. | :03:37. | :03:40. | |
Walking away with his family. 17 year-old Jordan Dixon from | :03:40. | :03:43. | |
Washington leaves Newcastle Crown Court. Together with 19 year-old | :03:43. | :03:46. | |
Jamie Nolan and 17 year-old Nicky Schofield, also of Washington, he | :03:46. | :03:51. | |
was convicted of attacking the town's police station. A brick | :03:51. | :03:54. | |
thrown through a window showered a PC working inside who suffered eye | :03:54. | :03:58. | |
injuries from broken glass. At least two petrol bombs were thrown | :03:58. | :04:08. | |
:04:08. | :04:09. | ||
and a squad car destroyed. The prosecutor said this was an attack | :04:09. | :04:12. | |
on an arm of the state, an attack on police officers who were | :04:12. | :04:16. | |
involved in maintaining law and order needed at this time. The | :04:16. | :04:21. | |
intention was extremely bad and foolish but the physical injury was | :04:21. | :04:24. | |
limited to one police officer and the cost to the state, less than | :04:24. | :04:31. | |
�15,000. The court heard it was a copycat attack from the London at | :04:31. | :04:37. | |
riots last year. The judge said there were city's that had | :04:37. | :04:41. | |
widespread looting of shops but in this region, it did not occur which | :04:41. | :04:48. | |
the people of it should take pride. There was one exception when the | :04:48. | :04:51. | |
copybook was blotted and it was plotted by a new three and others. | :04:51. | :04:56. | |
That said, it must be kept in two proportion added peeled into | :04:56. | :05:01. | |
insignificance when compared with what else was going on. Because the | :05:01. | :05:04. | |
defendants had spent time in custody awaiting trial, Dixon and | :05:04. | :05:06. | |
Schofield were sentenced to youth offending orders and three-month | :05:06. | :05:12. | |
night-time curfews. Nolan was given a 12 month suspended jail sentence. | :05:12. | :05:16. | |
They're known as chuggers or charity muggers. The people who | :05:16. | :05:20. | |
stop you on the high street and ask you to sign up or send a text to | :05:20. | :05:23. | |
make a donation to charity. They are usually employed by agencies | :05:23. | :05:26. | |
which are then paid by the charity according to how many donations | :05:26. | :05:30. | |
they get. But one of our councils now wants to introduce a bylaw to | :05:30. | :05:32. | |
control what it says can sometimes be an intimidating experience for | :05:32. | :05:42. | |
:05:42. | :05:44. | ||
shoppers. 30 seconds after parking the car | :05:44. | :05:54. | |
and did I know about the snow leopard? Cut to the chase! To help | :05:54. | :05:57. | |
say that the snow leopard, I needed to send a text to a number and the | :05:57. | :06:01. | |
money would go from my mobile account. I would rather give it to | :06:01. | :06:06. | |
my favourite charity, does that bother you? It does not bother me. | :06:06. | :06:11. | |
In Newcastle, the council things this operation is exploiting at | :06:11. | :06:14. | |
legal loophole because it that chuggers were collecting cash, they | :06:14. | :06:18. | |
would need a permit but because no cash is actually changing hands | :06:18. | :06:24. | |
here, they don't. My picture there was polite. The council says there | :06:24. | :06:29. | |
are those who are not. The chuggers used some extremely aggressive | :06:29. | :06:33. | |
techniques, quite manipulative. There can be very emotional about | :06:33. | :06:37. | |
the way they present the case to people and I think they often take | :06:37. | :06:41. | |
advantage of people's good natures. Here, we give a lot of money to | :06:41. | :06:45. | |
charity and I would be worried that local charities would be | :06:45. | :06:50. | |
disadvantaged by these techniques. Just around the corner, more | :06:50. | :06:57. | |
chuggers. This one is having success. �two for a cancer charity. | :06:57. | :07:07. | |
:07:07. | :07:07. | ||
Was the person polite enough? he seemed like a nicer bloke. | :07:07. | :07:15. | |
donated to reward politeness. have been up to speak to Newcastle | :07:15. | :07:21. | |
in a toga and had a meeting and Newcastle has always been reticent | :07:22. | :07:25. | |
to work with us and I am not entirely sure why that should be | :07:25. | :07:29. | |
because we can offer solutions they want. There are times when the | :07:29. | :07:34. | |
chugger will not go or perhaps it is the case that this one knows a | :07:34. | :07:42. | |
skinflint when she sees one kicks Mark! The government's bailing out | :07:42. | :07:45. | |
the North Cumbria Hospitals Trust to help pay debts built up after | :07:45. | :07:47. | |
the construction of the �87 million Cumberland hospital under a PFI | :07:47. | :07:51. | |
contract. It will share in a �1.5 billion fund set up for seven | :07:51. | :07:54. | |
trusts across the country that are struggling with the financial | :07:54. | :07:58. | |
burden of the Private Finance Initiative. Earlier this week the | :07:58. | :08:00. | |
North Cumbria Trust announced a takeover by the neighbouring | :08:00. | :08:04. | |
Northumbria Healthcare Trust. Two men who were seriously injured | :08:04. | :08:06. | |
in a microlight crash in Northumberland have each been | :08:07. | :08:11. | |
awarded a six-figure sum in compensation. Jim Martin and Jon | :08:11. | :08:13. | |
Kerr crash-landed in trees near Morpeth after their aircraft's tail | :08:13. | :08:19. | |
snapped off mid-flight in 2007. The aircraft's French manufacturer | :08:19. | :08:21. | |
denied liability but an air accident investigation found that | :08:21. | :08:28. | |
aluminium bolts used to attach the tail fin to the plane had corroded. | :08:28. | :08:30. | |
Solicitors have now successfully argued that the bolts were | :08:30. | :08:35. | |
defective. A new children's drama for the CBBC | :08:35. | :08:39. | |
channel is being made in the North East. It is called Wolfblood and | :08:39. | :08:42. | |
will be filmed in and around Rowlands Gill. It follows in the | :08:42. | :08:45. | |
footsteps of a number of successful children series including Tracy | :08:45. | :08:49. | |
Beaker and Byker Grove which were also shot in the North East. | :08:49. | :08:52. | |
Wolfblood will be a series of 13 half-hour episodes and will air | :08:52. | :08:59. | |
later this year. Schools in West Cumbria are in dire | :08:59. | :09:04. | |
need of investment according to the Labour MP for Copeland, Jamie Reed. | :09:04. | :09:07. | |
Head teachers in Cumbria and the north-east say that since the | :09:07. | :09:09. | |
government scrapped the Building Schools for the Future scheme, | :09:09. | :09:12. | |
there has been no extra cash to replace outdated buildings, leaving | :09:12. | :09:22. | |
some areas neglected. Netherhall School in Maryport. | :09:22. | :09:26. | |
Built in the 1950s and in need of an upgrade. The school missed out | :09:26. | :09:29. | |
when the coalition cancelled Labour's Building Schools for the | :09:29. | :09:38. | |
Future programme. Yes, it was very disappointing. It was very much for | :09:38. | :09:41. | |
us have not just about the condition of the building. Our | :09:41. | :09:45. | |
building is in good condition. It is about suitability of the | :09:45. | :09:49. | |
learning environment, are really key thing for the west coast of | :09:49. | :09:57. | |
Cumbria. That our students can have access to cutting edge facilities. | :09:57. | :10:00. | |
The situation for schools in west Cumbria is getting attention at | :10:00. | :10:05. | |
Westminster. They are in dire need of significant investment and that | :10:05. | :10:10. | |
is why the last government pledged over �60 million through the | :10:10. | :10:12. | |
programme and it was tragic when it was taken whether the government | :10:12. | :10:17. | |
but the need for investment grows, it has not lessened. It is greater | :10:17. | :10:20. | |
than it has ever been. But the local authority says they always | :10:20. | :10:22. | |
doubted Labour's scheme would deliver. They're hoping for money | :10:22. | :10:24. | |
from the government's replacement programme, due to be announced | :10:24. | :10:31. | |
shortly. As far as Building Schools for the Future is concerned, | :10:31. | :10:36. | |
expectations were far beyond the ability to produce the benefits to | :10:36. | :10:40. | |
the schools on that list. The fact that the government have come along | :10:40. | :10:46. | |
with this money, hopefully on, more of our schools will be on that list. | :10:46. | :10:49. | |
The government is being blamed for taking so long to come up with a | :10:49. | :10:52. | |
new plan for school buildings. Even when they do, the rules will be | :10:52. | :10:56. | |
tighter and the money far less plentiful. | :10:56. | :10:59. | |
There's more on the story on Sunday Politics at the earlier time of | :10:59. | :11:04. | |
11am on Sunday morning here on BBC One. | :11:04. | :11:08. | |
Coming up next, a hairy biker gets more than he bargained for. And we | :11:08. | :11:11. | |
meet the unpaid volunteer preparing to sooth troubled limbs at her | :11:11. | :11:20. | |
third Olympics. Get set for snow, it is going to be | :11:20. | :11:28. | |
a really wintry weekend. A new medical training facility | :11:28. | :11:33. | |
costing more than �360,000 has been opened in Gateshead by a hairy | :11:33. | :11:40. | |
biker. The Queen Elizabeth is a chef Simon King's local hospital. | :11:40. | :11:44. | |
He was given at tour of the clinical schools simulation area | :11:44. | :11:48. | |
where people are used to train doctors on replica wards and it is | :11:48. | :11:58. | |
:11:58. | :12:03. | ||
fair to say that Simon found some World apart from chef, Simon King, | :12:03. | :12:12. | |
usual demeanour. It is a remarkable experience. Everything should be as | :12:12. | :12:22. | |
:12:22. | :12:22. | ||
real as possible year. The hard treating creases. Adrenalin is a | :12:22. | :12:29. | |
healthy thing. When you deal with this, you were used to the feeling. | :12:29. | :12:39. | |
:12:39. | :12:41. | ||
Just because it is a dummy does not mean it is less dramatic. I was | :12:42. | :12:46. | |
slightly traumatised. So it is wonderful because it is so | :12:46. | :12:56. | |
:12:56. | :12:57. | ||
realistic. I found myself holding her hand. The facility cost around | :12:57. | :13:05. | |
�360,000. In this training run someone is always watching. | :13:05. | :13:15. | |
:13:15. | :13:17. | ||
Students can be monitored and spoken to three this guy a. They | :13:17. | :13:26. | |
have their limits. We can adjust the blood-pressure, heart rate and | :13:26. | :13:36. | |
:13:36. | :13:40. | ||
speak from another room. Does he have any net? I have lost some | :13:40. | :13:48. | |
weight. It is expected hundreds of students will be trained. For Simon, | :13:48. | :13:58. | |
:13:58. | :14:00. | ||
the reality stops here. You should have seen your face | :14:00. | :14:09. | |
during that. It is very realistic. Here is something sporty. She has | :14:10. | :14:15. | |
cared for some other top athletes at Olympic Games. Julie Sparrow is | :14:15. | :14:21. | |
looking forward to doing the same this year. She is a physiotherapist. | :14:22. | :14:27. | |
She has successfully volunteered for 10 weeks unpaid work at this | :14:27. | :14:37. | |
:14:37. | :14:40. | ||
year's Olympics. A bit faster. The most moving | :14:40. | :14:46. | |
parties watching the plane being let. To be part of the support team | :14:46. | :14:50. | |
and be part of the procession of nations is probably the most | :14:50. | :15:00. | |
:15:00. | :15:02. | ||
exciting thing. Olympic experience -- experienced expert in Julie | :15:02. | :15:08. | |
Sparrow is keen. I am in an environment that Sir Chips what I | :15:08. | :15:18. | |
:15:18. | :15:20. | ||
have always wanted to do. It is phenomenal. Who could forget this? | :15:20. | :15:24. | |
Sydney 2000, one of the greatest moments of with the greatest | :15:24. | :15:33. | |
Olympic suburb. The rowing team in Sydney, when so Steve Redgrave | :15:33. | :15:43. | |
:15:43. | :15:45. | ||
competed. I did not look after them but I looked after them in training. | :15:45. | :15:49. | |
She was closer than others and she will never forget. I have fabulous | :15:49. | :15:55. | |
pictures of them coming off the water. It is the complete converse | :15:55. | :16:02. | |
of every chink -- everyone watching them get medals. To see them coming | :16:02. | :16:10. | |
off with their medals, that special moments when you have the picture | :16:10. | :16:20. | |
:16:20. | :16:22. | ||
no one else has. This year, she will work from the Olympic village. | :16:22. | :16:32. | |
:16:32. | :16:32. | ||
I can court with his York. I am all flushed. | :16:32. | :16:39. | |
Life is going to borrow her teens. Newcastle and Sunderland are in the | :16:39. | :16:49. | |
:16:49. | :16:51. | ||
top eight. On Sunday, the Magpies and their new signing Papiss Cisse. | :16:51. | :16:57. | |
Many have left it late but Sunderland have never looked back. | :16:57. | :17:02. | |
The Green Nell Gwyn Bevan orach underlined how far the Black Cats | :17:02. | :17:12. | |
:17:12. | :17:16. | ||
have come. They got into tomorrow's game in eight police. We have done | :17:16. | :17:25. | |
very well. There are a group of teams there which are separated by | :17:25. | :17:35. | |
:17:35. | :17:35. | ||
just a few points. That is the most important thing. We would be | :17:35. | :17:41. | |
delighted but there is a distance to gawp. If the season ended now, | :17:41. | :17:51. | |
:17:51. | :17:54. | ||
Demba Ba and Papiss Cisse would find him in the Europa League. The | :17:54. | :17:57. | |
boss has his feet on the ground. are not looking further than where | :17:57. | :18:06. | |
we are. We are realistic enough to know that for us to break-up into | :18:06. | :18:14. | |
the top four, it would be something extraordinary. There will be a | :18:14. | :18:23. | |
tough decision whether to start with Demba Ba and Papiss Cisse. | :18:23. | :18:29. | |
This will be held for all for everyone. Whether the start, | :18:29. | :18:39. | |
whether they come off the bench. I am looking forward to it. | :18:39. | :18:43. | |
Middlesbrough goal looking for their first league win of 2012 | :18:43. | :18:53. | |
:18:53. | :18:59. | ||
against at Crystal Palace tomorrow. This called from Marvin Emnes. | :18:59. | :19:06. | |
Carlisle hammered for nine from Hartlepool. The planned trip to | :19:06. | :19:11. | |
Bari was called off this afternoon. It will not have escaped your | :19:12. | :19:17. | |
notice but we have four survivors in the Cup. Two of them are from | :19:17. | :19:27. | |
:19:27. | :19:28. | ||
Sunderland. The Black Cats play next week in round five. Sunderland | :19:28. | :19:35. | |
are in with the wild cats. On a very cold day, the warm glow | :19:36. | :19:45. | |
:19:46. | :19:47. | ||
all media attention for the women's football team. It is their reward | :19:47. | :19:53. | |
for dispatching another name, Sheffield Wednesday. Everyone wants | :19:53. | :20:02. | |
to win. We have the belief we could come this far. Other people might | :20:02. | :20:10. | |
not have thought that. The belief within the squad is excellent. If | :20:10. | :20:13. | |
we go out there and play our game, there is no reason why we cannot | :20:13. | :20:23. | |
:20:23. | :20:28. | ||
win. They warmed up for the tie-up -- Cup tie. They're proud coach has | :20:28. | :20:36. | |
been trying to keep their feet on the ground. We're very proud. The | :20:36. | :20:42. | |
secret of this team is hard work and they want to succeed. When the | :20:42. | :20:50. | |
ball out, they will give 110 %. the Edinburgh again, will they be | :20:50. | :20:59. | |
focused? It's the first 20 minutes of them go behind. They sorted it | :20:59. | :21:08. | |
out to one former-1. Newcastle Falcons were given a | :21:08. | :21:14. | |
major boost with news that Jimmy Gopperth has signed a three-year | :21:14. | :21:20. | |
extension. He has had offers from many clubs and has decided to | :21:20. | :21:27. | |
commit his future to the Balkans. Newcastle are we to Leicester at | :21:27. | :21:34. | |
times tomorrow. And basketball, the leader's head to the Midlands to | :21:34. | :21:40. | |
plague was to Wolves. Que may have won seven and a rope since | :21:40. | :21:50. | |

Christmas. If you're hoping to take part in this year's Great North Run, | :21:52. | :21:59. | |
hurry up. The ballot closes on Monday. I knew there would be a | :21:59. | :22:08. | |
comment. We are more than a month into a 2012 and that means it is | :22:08. | :22:14. | |
time to reveal the first picture and the calendar. Our January | :22:14. | :22:24. | |
:22:24. | :22:25. | ||
weather picture... He is a painter of Clyde Stakes and a member of the | :22:25. | :22:34. | |
Cloud Appreciation Society. caught up with iron. I am Malcolm | :22:34. | :22:44. | |
:22:44. | :22:45. | ||
Wilson. We run a private architectural practice. I paint | :22:45. | :22:53. | |
more than I used to. I have a wonderful life. Skies have always | :22:53. | :23:03. | |
:23:03. | :23:07. | ||
been a passion. Particularly clouds. This was quite atmospheric. It is | :23:07. | :23:16. | |
where my grandparents came from. It is hard to pick a short list. I | :23:16. | :23:26. | |
:23:26. | :23:26. | ||
have got it down to three. They all had different characteristics. I | :23:26. | :23:32. | |
picked three and all them were in Cumbria. This was a very | :23:32. | :23:39. | |
traditional photograph. You had this lovely for groaned. It | :23:40. | :23:49. | |
:23:50. | :23:51. | ||
habitable range of covers -- colours. I picked this one. It had | :23:51. | :24:01. | |
:24:01. | :24:05. | ||
a lovely geometric shot. Everything was there. You can see the dawn. It | :24:05. | :24:10. | |
was beautifully shot. After looking at all the photographs, it was | :24:10. | :24:18. | |
difficult to pick a winner. But whether his this one. It captured | :24:18. | :24:28. | |
:24:28. | :24:28. | ||
geometry, drama, that while factor. It is a picture I would have picked | :24:28. | :24:37. | |
every single time. Congratulations. Thanks to Malcolm foreseeing that. | :24:37. | :24:47. | |

My favourite was the water shot. I can tell you that temperatures | :24:53. | :25:02. | |
:25:03. | :25:03. | ||
are dropping this evening. We start with pictures taken this morning. | :25:03. | :25:10. | |
The pond here is frozen solid. Spare a thought for Alan. He has | :25:10. | :25:18. | |
been out all day. That ice will stay with us. Temperatures from | :25:18. | :25:28. | |
:25:28. | :25:34. | ||
last night were minus nine. We start with a warning of its know | :25:34. | :25:39. | |
from the Met Office. It will creep end tomorrow. It may cause | :25:39. | :25:47. | |
disruption. Why is it coming in? You will have seen on the national | :25:47. | :25:54. | |
news pictures of Europe. The air has been brought in on an easterly | :25:54. | :26:00. | |
wind. There is mild, moist air coming in and when the two meet, | :26:00. | :26:07. | |
that moisture will turn to snow. On Saturday afternoon into Saturday | :26:07. | :26:17. | |
:26:17. | :26:18. | ||
evening, it will clear southwards. Ice will be a problem on Sunday | :26:18. | :26:25. | |
morning. Meantime, this guy has some clear spells and temperatures | :26:25. | :26:32. | |
are dipping away. We could match the temperatures from last night. | :26:32. | :26:42. | |
:26:42. | :26:45. | ||
Tomorrow, a dry start every where. Cumbria also has cloud in place. | :26:45. | :26:54. | |
Morse know will come in later. It will drive away eastwards. It will | :26:54. | :27:04. | |
:27:04. | :27:10. | ||
be patchy in Northumberland. On the tops of hills, 10 centimetres. With | :27:10. | :27:20. | |
