Welcome to Monday's Look North. Tonight: Heartbreak for the family | :00:09. | :00:14. | |
who thought they had found their missing daughter after 30 years. A | :00:14. | :00:18. | |
suspended jail sentence for the man who racially abused footballers on | :00:18. | :00:22. | |
Twitter. I am staying put says the | :00:22. | :00:26. | |
campaigner who is staging a sit-in on the wreck of an historic ship. | :00:26. | :00:32. | |
And how London 2012 has hit Cumbria's summer tourist trade. | :00:32. | :00:37. | |
In sport not much to celebrate unless you are a Carlisle fan. The | :00:37. | :00:47. | |
:00:47. | :00:53. | ||
Blues are back in the play-off It is a heartbreaking story with a | :00:53. | :00:58. | |
cruel twist. Katrice Lee was just two years old when she disappeared | :00:58. | :01:02. | |
from a supermarket in Germany 30 years ago. Her family never gave up | :01:02. | :01:07. | |
hope of finding her, so you can imagine how they felt when just two | :01:07. | :01:12. | |
weeks ago a woman came forward claiming to be Katrice. But it | :01:12. | :01:18. | |
turned out to be a false alarm. Katrice disappeared on her second | :01:18. | :01:23. | |
birthday. Her family were in a shop buying things for her party when | :01:23. | :01:27. | |
she vanished. For the last 30 years her father remained convinced she | :01:27. | :01:32. | |
was still alive, then they were contacted by a woman claiming to be | :01:32. | :01:37. | |
Katrice. You get a tingle at the back of your neck. You are hoping, | :01:37. | :01:43. | |
is this it? But you have learnt to control those emotions and you are | :01:43. | :01:50. | |
frightened to let yourself go and believe 100% this is it. That is | :01:50. | :01:55. | |
how you feel. There were a number of similarities and the woman said | :01:55. | :02:00. | |
she never felt right in her own family, but she was not Katrice. | :02:00. | :02:04. | |
The claim comes after the Royal Military Police promised to re- | :02:04. | :02:09. | |
examine the case. Katrice's mother returned to Paderborn in Germany | :02:09. | :02:13. | |
and went to the place where her daughter went missing. Standing | :02:14. | :02:20. | |
there I am back in November 1981 and I have a small child in my arms. | :02:20. | :02:27. | |
That small child is my daughter. I know she will be a grown woman now. | :02:27. | :02:34. | |
But to me and my memory she is still that small two-year-old child. | :02:34. | :02:40. | |
Sorry. The German police had claimed Katrice had left the busy | :02:40. | :02:46. | |
supermarket without being noticed, then walked 250 yards down the road | :02:46. | :02:49. | |
and despite being terrified of water headed for the river and | :02:49. | :02:55. | |
drowned, but nobody was ever found. Our belief is as strong as it was | :02:55. | :03:02. | |
on day one. We have always believed she was taken as a substitute child, | :03:02. | :03:08. | |
somebody took her, stole her, she is now living another life. | :03:08. | :03:12. | |
Computer technology has been used to show how she may look now, but | :03:12. | :03:17. | |
30 years after their daughter's disappearance the family are still | :03:17. | :03:21. | |
fighting the authorities. They have been denied the files from the | :03:21. | :03:25. | |
original investigation because the MoD says it would have a | :03:25. | :03:30. | |
prejudicial effect on any subsequent trial. | :03:30. | :03:35. | |
A Sunderland football fan who racially abused Newcastle United | :03:35. | :03:39. | |
players on Twitter has been given a suspended jail sentence. Peter | :03:40. | :03:47. | |
Copeland, 29, from West Rainton, pleaded guilty to two offences | :03:47. | :03:52. | |
under the Malicious Communications Act. He was ordered to do 150 hours | :03:52. | :03:59. | |
of community service as well. Newcastle United's success this | :03:59. | :04:04. | |
season has sparked rival reek from Sunderland fans, but banter on | :04:04. | :04:08. | |
forums can turn abusive and when Sunderland fan Peter Copeland | :04:08. | :04:12. | |
posted racist comments on the social network Twitter he was | :04:12. | :04:17. | |
reported to the police. He admitted the offences under the | :04:17. | :04:21. | |
Malicious Communications Act. Since then, Newcastle United has | :04:21. | :04:26. | |
commented and said they were appalled by the comments. The | :04:26. | :04:31. | |
magistrate presiding said they were grossly offensive and justified a | :04:31. | :04:36. | |
prison sentence and he sentenced him to four months in prison, | :04:36. | :04:42. | |
suspended for 18 months. This is not an isolated case. | :04:42. | :04:47. | |
Newcastle striker Sammy Ameobi has been subjected to racist tweets and | :04:47. | :04:50. | |
Sunderland striker Fraizer Campbell has also been racially abused on | :04:50. | :04:56. | |
Twitter. Meanwhile, I Newcastle student is back in court on April | :04:56. | :05:06. | |
:05:06. | :05:10. | ||
charged with racist comments directed at Stan Collymore. | :05:11. | :05:16. | |
Some breaking news and Hartlepool's mayor, Stuart Drummond, has sacked | :05:16. | :05:19. | |
six Labour members of his own Cabinet because they did not attend | :05:19. | :05:24. | |
a full council meeting to support the budget proposals. Richard | :05:24. | :05:30. | |
Thomas is in our Teesside newsroom now. What has gone on? This is all | :05:30. | :05:35. | |
about money and what is a difficult time for local authorities. Last | :05:35. | :05:41. | |
Thursday was that time to rubber- stamp the Budget, but these six | :05:41. | :05:45. | |
councillors did not turn up to that meeting. That meant amendments put | :05:45. | :05:50. | |
forward by the Labour Party, which these six party members belong to, | :05:50. | :05:56. | |
they were pushed through instead, and the mayor Stuart Drummond, who | :05:56. | :06:01. | |
is independent, and he was left with a budget he did not want. | :06:01. | :06:04. | |
has been the reaction from the councillors who have been sacked? | :06:04. | :06:09. | |
They are entitled to an opinion. course and that is why they are | :06:09. | :06:13. | |
elected to the council, but they are members of the Cabinet as well | :06:13. | :06:16. | |
and are bound by collective responsibility to act on important | :06:17. | :06:22. | |
decisions. Stewart Drummond said he did what he did with a heavy heart | :06:22. | :06:25. | |
and he was disappointed. He said all the Cabinet members were | :06:25. | :06:31. | |
extremely good at their jobs, but when they join the Cabinet he asks | :06:31. | :06:34. | |
for loyalty and to put party politics at arm's length and he | :06:34. | :06:39. | |
said he had no choice. We have spoken to one of the six | :06:39. | :06:44. | |
councillors, Chris Simmons, and he says he is sad at what happened. | :06:44. | :06:51. | |
What happens to those six vacant positions now? Some things do not | :06:51. | :06:56. | |
move very fast and it will be a few months before anything is decided. | :06:56. | :07:01. | |
There are local elections in May and none of these positions will be | :07:01. | :07:06. | |
filled until after these elections and the slack has been left and it | :07:06. | :07:10. | |
will be filled by the existing Cabinet members and the mayor | :07:10. | :07:15. | |
himself. A man has been arrested on suspicion of murder after a woman's | :07:15. | :07:21. | |
body was found in Brough in Cumbria this morning. Police were called to | :07:21. | :07:25. | |
Black Bull Lane just before 8 o'clock. Police are questioning a | :07:25. | :07:29. | |
local man on suspicion of murder. We are trying to establish the | :07:29. | :07:34. | |
movements of this lady and this gentleman was taken into custody | :07:34. | :07:38. | |
last night and this morning we are trying to piece together the | :07:38. | :07:42. | |
movements of the individuals and to sort them. The Independent Police | :07:42. | :07:45. | |
Complaints Commission is investigating after a woman was | :07:45. | :07:50. | |
stabbed to death in Newcastle. Sarah Gosling, 41, was found | :07:50. | :07:57. | |
stabbed to death inside the house in Tewkesbury Road on Saturday. Ian | :07:57. | :08:01. | |
Hope, 52, has been charged with her murder. | :08:01. | :08:05. | |
At campaigner from Sunderland has once again occupied the wreck of an | :08:05. | :08:09. | |
historic ship and this time Peter Maddison says he is prepared for a | :08:09. | :08:14. | |
lengthy sit-in to stop HMAS Adelaide being transported to | :08:14. | :08:19. | |
Australia. He has spent years fighting to have the world's oldest | :08:19. | :08:23. | |
surviving clipper returned to Sunderland. | :08:23. | :08:28. | |
At first glance it is hard to see why this is worth fighting for. | :08:28. | :08:33. | |
HMAS Adelaide may have been rotting in a Scottish yard for 20 years, | :08:34. | :08:39. | |
but now she is the centre for a tug of war. Sport by the Australians, | :08:39. | :08:45. | |
she is due to be transported, but last night Sunderland campaigner | :08:45. | :08:49. | |
Peter manners and staged a last ditch bid to have her returned to | :08:49. | :08:53. | |
the Weir instead. He has occupied the ship and says he will stay | :08:53. | :08:58. | |
there. Peter Maddison has been fighting for 20 years to have HMAS | :08:58. | :09:02. | |
Adelaide brought back to Sunderland and there are good reasons to do so. | :09:02. | :09:09. | |
It was built here in 1864, it is older than the Cutty Sark and there | :09:09. | :09:13. | |
could be tourism potential from having the ship back on the Weir. | :09:13. | :09:17. | |
am sorry to say I think what he has done is too little and too late, | :09:17. | :09:23. | |
but I have sympathy for him. Money will count, the Australians have | :09:23. | :09:28. | |
got the money to take this and I can understand why they want it. | :09:28. | :09:35. | |
Perhaps it is a sad reflection on what will be seen as a lack of | :09:35. | :09:41. | |
vision on the part of Wearside. Peter Maddison has staged a sit-in | :09:41. | :09:45. | |
on the ship before. She is due to leave port Australia in around one | :09:45. | :09:54. | |
month. He says he will stay put to make sure that never happens. | :09:54. | :09:59. | |
More on that tomorrow. It was always hoped the Olympic Games | :09:59. | :10:04. | |
would be a welcome boost for every part of the UK, not just London. | :10:04. | :10:09. | |
But that one not be the case for parts of Cumbria. Businesses in the | :10:09. | :10:12. | |
Lake District have said tens of thousands of pounds of bookings | :10:12. | :10:16. | |
have already been lost because of the Games this summer is because | :10:16. | :10:20. | |
some of its biggest fans are staying away. | :10:20. | :10:26. | |
Hill Top Farm near Hawkshead, the home of Beatrix Potter. It is a | :10:26. | :10:30. | |
must-see destination for some of the 15,000 Japanese tourists who | :10:30. | :10:34. | |
come to the Lakes to see Peter Rabbit and Friends. But this year | :10:34. | :10:40. | |
it could be different. It is an unintended consequence of the | :10:40. | :10:46. | |
Olympics. It has direct impact on other parts of the country. | :10:46. | :10:51. | |
Japanese tourists come on organised tours of the UK, ending their trip | :10:51. | :10:55. | |
in London, but hotel prices there this summer are six times the | :10:55. | :11:00. | |
normal price, so it tour operators are cancelling and that means a | :11:00. | :11:08. | |
knock-on for the Lakes. So since the start of 2012, I would say it | :11:08. | :11:14. | |
is in excess of �10,000. We can always fill the weekends with | :11:14. | :11:18. | |
weddings, but when you start getting cancellations in the week, | :11:18. | :11:23. | |
it is more difficult to fill the empty rooms. On the lake it is the | :11:23. | :11:27. | |
same story. The slots that clash with the Olympics have been | :11:27. | :11:32. | |
cancelled. At the moment it is in the small number of thousands of | :11:32. | :11:38. | |
bookings, but it is a bit difficult to quantify. It is OK to measure | :11:38. | :11:42. | |
the bookings that have been cancelled, but it is harder to | :11:42. | :11:47. | |
estimate the bookings that never materialised. One operator who | :11:47. | :11:51. | |
normally brings 5000 Japanese to the Lakes told me they have no | :11:51. | :11:56. | |
tours planned during the Games. Next month a �4 million TV | :11:56. | :12:01. | |
advertising campaign begins to fill some of the gaps left by the | :12:01. | :12:04. | |
Japanese and the Government believes that the exposure of the | :12:04. | :12:08. | |
Olympics will have positive benefits everywhere. The kinds of | :12:08. | :12:11. | |
people coming here will be different and the reasons they are | :12:11. | :12:17. | |
coming here will be different, but that has huge opportunity in it, as | :12:17. | :12:21. | |
well as some risks. Nobody should be thinking they have got to take a | :12:21. | :12:26. | |
hit. There are big opportunities out there. It will be a nervous few | :12:26. | :12:31. | |
months as the clock ticks down to the opening ceremony. It will be | :12:31. | :12:35. | |
after the Games are over that we will truly know whether there will | :12:35. | :12:42. | |
be celebrations or commiserations in the Lakes. You can see more on | :12:42. | :12:52. | |
:12:52. | :12:52. | ||
that tonight at 7:30pm. Still to come: Dornock joins me for | :12:53. | :12:56. | |
a team talk and temperatures in the teens. We have another mild week | :12:56. | :13:06. | |
:13:06. | :13:18. | ||
Why it there are high hopes for Catterick Garrison. | :13:18. | :13:27. | |
There is something satisfying about making bread. Foreign next | :13:27. | :13:33. | |
infantryman, it represents a significant career change. It is | :13:33. | :13:43. | |
:13:43. | :13:45. | ||
different to what I am used to. I enjoy cooking and Peking. I want to | :13:45. | :13:55. | |
:13:55. | :13:56. | ||
do a professional cookery course. This has been set up in Catterick | :13:56. | :14:03. | |
to give veterans vocational training for a catering career. | :14:03. | :14:09. | |
addition to the vocational training, we give them accredited training. | :14:09. | :14:19. | |
:14:19. | :14:21. | ||
They get customer service training. The professionals have a long | :14:21. | :14:26. | |
bakery tradition, producing law this and the most demanding | :14:26. | :14:36. | |
conditions. It is a challenging environment. It is hot and not very | :14:36. | :14:46. | |
:14:46. | :14:54. | ||
nice to work in. Artisan baking, that is posh bread to me and you. | :14:54. | :15:04. | |
:15:04. | :15:09. | ||
Selling these and an army camp? He looked delicious, but not being of | :15:09. | :15:18. | |
sufficient rank, that is all I can tell you. | :15:18. | :15:23. | |
Paddington Bear has long been a fan but his passion for marmalade is | :15:23. | :15:30. | |
spreading. 1,700 preserve makers made the annual marmalade | :15:30. | :15:40. | |
:15:40. | :15:52. | ||
competition this weekend. Marmalade, as far as I can see. | :15:52. | :15:59. | |
They were sent for the annual celebration and contest. In seven | :15:59. | :16:09. | |
:16:09. | :16:09. | ||
years, their entries have grown from 60 to almost 2000. | :16:09. | :16:17. | |
festival started a renaissance. I do not think people concentrate on | :16:17. | :16:24. | |
it. It used to be a spread but now it it is a key thing in breakfast. | :16:24. | :16:29. | |
The self-sufficiency is a good thing. This is a celebration of | :16:29. | :16:32. | |
self-sufficiency. To take a basic ingredient and turn them into | :16:32. | :16:38. | |
something extraordinary makes you feel in control of life. Entry fees | :16:38. | :16:48. | |
:16:48. | :16:48. | ||
from every category -- category quarter charity. The winner came | :16:48. | :16:57. | |
from across the region and even as far as Singapore. These are | :16:57. | :17:04. | |
national preserve judges and have spent four days judging the entries. | :17:04. | :17:11. | |
I will see what they make of mind. It has not got a label on. It is | :17:11. | :17:21. | |
:17:21. | :17:23. | ||
not too bad. The jar should be filled to the top. Congratulations. | :17:23. | :17:28. | |
Who's to say whether the unsung heroines of the festival were just | :17:28. | :17:38. | |
:17:38. | :17:47. | ||
being nice? It was one of those weekends. We | :17:47. | :17:54. | |
found a silver lining at Brunton Park. | :17:54. | :17:57. | |
We nearly did not have a single winner. | :17:57. | :18:05. | |
The Blues came to the rescue. It is 366 miles from your bill to | :18:06. | :18:10. | |
Carlisle. They were a goal down just past the | :18:10. | :18:20. | |
:18:20. | :18:32. | ||
that one. Top marks to Paddy Madden. | :18:32. | :18:42. | |
:18:42. | :19:02. | ||
Back came the Oval. This was true- There was a reality check for | :19:02. | :19:12. | |
:19:12. | :19:14. | ||
Newcastle fans. The reality is that the Magpies' home ground will be | :19:14. | :19:23. | |
changed to another name. A coffin was carried to the game. | :19:23. | :19:33. | |
:19:33. | :19:44. | ||
When they kicked off, it look like out. | :19:44. | :19:53. | |
This was Wolves' first came under the caretaker manager. It was spot- | :19:53. | :20:03. | |
:20:03. | :20:18. | ||
on. The Magpies still have Europe The most important period is now. | :20:18. | :20:27. | |
We let it slip in the second half. The point could be very important | :20:27. | :20:37. | |
:20:37. | :20:40. | ||
this season. We might get lucky. Elsewhere, possibly dreaming of the | :20:40. | :20:50. | |
:20:50. | :21:12. | ||
not lost a game all season. They were pulverised. | :21:12. | :21:22. | |
:21:22. | :21:25. | ||
This one finished it off. Not the best preparation for Sunday's Derby. | :21:25. | :21:32. | |
Darren Bent and Wayne Rainey and Frazier Campbell could make his | :21:32. | :21:42. | |
:21:42. | :21:47. | ||
international debut. It was nothing really. I changed direction. I | :21:47. | :21:51. | |
remember trying to walk and my knee was going backwards. I thought, | :21:51. | :22:01. | |
:22:01. | :22:17. | ||
Part three, a reality check. Middlesbrough up were beaten up | :22:17. | :22:27. | |
:22:27. | :22:40. | ||
We are just outside the play-offs in goal difference. | :22:40. | :22:50. | |
:22:50. | :22:51. | ||
Some good news for Boro, the Mr Nicky Bailey. | :22:51. | :23:01. | |
:23:01. | :23:01. | ||
Hartlepool were hammered 5 - 0. Manager Neale Cooper called it | :23:02. | :23:11. | |
:23:12. | :23:12. | ||
embarrassing. He said every goal was a gift. | :23:12. | :23:17. | |
What about this one? You are the referee, should this | :23:17. | :23:27. | |
:23:27. | :23:34. | ||
has did? -- look at this. Anthony Sweeny top-scored with five | :23:34. | :23:44. | |
:23:44. | :23:56. | ||
Yorke made it to the semis. They will now meet Luton. In rugby | :23:56. | :24:06. | |
:24:06. | :24:09. | ||
union, congratulations to Katy McLean. | :24:09. | :24:15. | |
Not too surprising, really. The Balkans were completely outplayed | :24:15. | :24:25. | |
:24:25. | :24:45. | ||
by the Tigers. The Balkans lost two players. | :24:45. | :24:55. | |
:24:55. | :24:56. | ||
In Rugby League, there were two derbies yesterday. | :24:56. | :25:06. | |
:25:06. | :25:28. | ||
There will be some bright spells. If you're in the West, you will | :25:28. | :25:38. | |
:25:38. | :25:44. | ||
have to rely on the spring flowers for brightness. We have some idea | :25:45. | :25:54. | |
:25:55. | :25:57. | ||
which is mild coming up from the West. Not much rain getting through | :25:57. | :26:07. | |
:26:07. | :26:10. | ||
this sky. It will be the weekend before this rain makes its way on | :26:10. | :26:20. | |
:26:20. | :26:40. | ||
Saturday. It will be mild night tonight. Tomorrow will be a dry day. | :26:40. | :26:50. | |
:26:50. | :27:07. | ||
The clouds thickening up in the West. Those temperatures will rise | :27:07. | :27:11. |
