there are major concerns about the spread of disease. That is all from | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
us. Hello and welcome. Tonight: Killed | :00:00. | :00:14. | |
inside a military base. This soldier was not wearing body armour when he | :00:15. | :00:18. | |
died but an inquest hears it would not have saved him. | :00:19. | :00:22. | |
Dramatic footage of a fire that destroyed shops and brought a town | :00:23. | :00:25. | |
centre to a standstill. It was a very scary because it was loads and | :00:26. | :00:33. | |
loads of smoke. It was covering everything. Shameful statistic ` the | :00:34. | :00:41. | |
North is named as the worst place for birds of prey being killed. | :00:42. | :00:44. | |
And a teenager charts her journey through painful treatment to help | :00:45. | :00:49. | |
others. Hartlepool prepares to announce its | :00:50. | :00:56. | |
new manager. We announce the winner of our Unsung Hero Award. And find | :00:57. | :01:00. | |
out what former Sunderland he Nile Quinn thinks about the Black Cats' | :01:01. | :01:07. | |
troubles since he left the boardroom. | :01:08. | :01:17. | |
He was serving his country in Afghanistan but he died not on the | :01:18. | :01:23. | |
battlefield but inside a military base where he thought he was safe. | :01:24. | :01:28. | |
Sapper Richard Walker, from Washington, was killed by a member | :01:29. | :01:31. | |
of the Afghan National Army serving beside him in January. He was not | :01:32. | :01:36. | |
wearing body armour but an inquest today heard protect clothing would | :01:37. | :01:40. | |
not have saved his life. Sapper Richard Walker was 23. A | :01:41. | :01:43. | |
member of 28 Royal Engineers Regiment, his funeral in Washington | :01:44. | :01:46. | |
in January saw large parts of the community come out to pay tribute to | :01:47. | :01:52. | |
him. This was a soldier shot not by insurgents but by a member of the | :01:53. | :01:55. | |
Afghan National Army, inside a secure military base. Today an | :01:56. | :01:59. | |
inquest in Sunderland examined the facts of his death. The inquest | :02:00. | :02:09. | |
heard that suddenly tracer fire lit up the darkness. He had been shot. | :02:10. | :02:15. | |
Crucially, he was not wearing body armour but a Ministry of Defence | :02:16. | :02:19. | |
expert told the inquest that even if he had been wearing body armour, | :02:20. | :02:24. | |
that would not have saved his life. That is because the high velocity | :02:25. | :02:27. | |
round kicking in the shoulder, an area not covered by body armour. | :02:28. | :02:30. | |
Giving evidence to the inquest, Sergeant Jonathan Barton, who was | :02:31. | :02:32. | |
with Sapper Walker that night, said he was definitely hit by the second | :02:33. | :02:36. | |
or third round by the Afghan soldier, who was subsequently shot | :02:37. | :02:39. | |
dead. A Royal Military Police officer told the inquest there had | :02:40. | :02:43. | |
been no perceived threat at the base that night, but Sapper Walker's | :02:44. | :02:46. | |
father Richard, seen here on the right, told the inquest that as a | :02:47. | :02:49. | |
father, he thought any position inside or outside a military base | :02:50. | :02:54. | |
should be seen as a threat area. Sapper Walker's troop commander paid | :02:55. | :03:03. | |
tribute to him. Richard was a professional and dedicated, with a | :03:04. | :03:07. | |
larger`than`life personality. He worked extremely hard and formed | :03:08. | :03:10. | |
close friendships. He is still missed ID troops, his colleagues and | :03:11. | :03:17. | |
his friends. The coroner concluded that Sapper Walker had been | :03:18. | :03:22. | |
unlawfully killed out of service overseas. He said he was satisfied | :03:23. | :03:25. | |
that close to his death and afterwards the Ministry of Defence | :03:26. | :03:31. | |
kept the matter of soldiers' protection including the use of body | :03:32. | :03:35. | |
armour under close review. Can any lessons be learned by this case? | :03:36. | :03:41. | |
Giving evidence today, wing Amanda Li Taylor said the forces clearly | :03:42. | :03:47. | |
need to learn from each and every incident. `` Wing Commander Li | :03:48. | :03:52. | |
Taylor said the forces clearly need to learn from each and every | :03:53. | :03:58. | |
incident. But we also heard much about the difficult balance between | :03:59. | :04:01. | |
protecting troops and letting them do their job. A total body armour | :04:02. | :04:05. | |
kit weighs up to 23kg. For tasks like Trooper Walker and his | :04:06. | :04:08. | |
colleagues were doing, moving a 250kg gate, we were told body armour | :04:09. | :04:11. | |
would severely have affected their movement. Tonight, Sapper Walker's | :04:12. | :04:13. | |
mother, Kathryn, told Look North, "He loved the Army. They were like | :04:14. | :04:18. | |
his family. Richard may be gone," she said, "but I still love and care | :04:19. | :04:22. | |
about all the men and women serving in the Army. I wish we could keep | :04:23. | :04:26. | |
them all safe, but it's a dangerous job. He wasn't the first and he | :04:27. | :04:28. | |
won't be the last." Thank you. 73 jobs are going at a plastics | :04:29. | :04:49. | |
factory in West Cumbria. The company was bought by 8`in 2008 and now says | :04:50. | :04:54. | |
it cannot compete with others in the Far East. Factory owners have been | :04:55. | :04:59. | |
consulting about the plant's future. Demolition work begins tomorrow on | :05:00. | :05:02. | |
part of Stanley town centre after a huge fire badly damaged buildings. | :05:03. | :05:05. | |
Many roads were still cordoned off today and a school was closed as a | :05:06. | :05:09. | |
precaution. Firefighters say they will stay on site to stop the fire | :05:10. | :05:13. | |
reigniting when work starts on the unsafe structure. Alison Freeman | :05:14. | :05:16. | |
reports. The intense heat took its toll on | :05:17. | :05:26. | |
the buildings. It caused the far end to collapse. The fire had started in | :05:27. | :05:29. | |
the kitchen of a Chinese takeaway in Stanley, and rapidly spread, sending | :05:30. | :05:33. | |
flames 30ft high into the air. A neighbouring care home on Front | :05:34. | :05:36. | |
Street and St Joseph's school were evacuated. The flames started to | :05:37. | :05:43. | |
come over the top of our school and when we were standing, we could hear | :05:44. | :05:47. | |
the crackling and see the heat on our faces. The flames became quite | :05:48. | :05:52. | |
scary at one point, and then the buildings started to cave in. It was | :05:53. | :05:58. | |
very scary because there was loads and loads of smoke coming all over, | :05:59. | :06:02. | |
covering everything. Eight fire engines and 40 firefighters battled | :06:03. | :06:11. | |
to control the blaze at its peak. We had large volumes of smoke issuing | :06:12. | :06:14. | |
out under pressure and that was due to the design of the building. The | :06:15. | :06:18. | |
building behind me was all hoarded up. There were shuttered doors on | :06:19. | :06:28. | |
every door except for the Chinese restaurant. It was difficult for the | :06:29. | :06:32. | |
firefighters because it was dense black smoke coming out under | :06:33. | :06:35. | |
pressure, due to the heat building up inside the building. Today | :06:36. | :06:38. | |
firefighters were trying to make this warren of buildings safe. | :06:39. | :06:40. | |
Because these 100`year`old Edwardian buildings are made mainly of stone, | :06:41. | :06:44. | |
they retain the heat, and with the thick smoke hanging in the air, it's | :06:45. | :06:48. | |
going to be a while before the buildings are cool enough for | :06:49. | :06:51. | |
investigators to go in to work out what started the fire. It's down to | :06:52. | :06:55. | |
the building surveyors now to work out when it's safe for people to | :06:56. | :06:59. | |
return to their homes and businesses. | :07:00. | :07:05. | |
North Yorkshire, Cumbria and Northumberland have been named as | :07:06. | :07:09. | |
the three worst counties in England for birds of prey being killed. | :07:10. | :07:15. | |
Animal welfare campaigners say the birds have been shot, poisoned and | :07:16. | :07:18. | |
trapped, making them a rare sight in some parts of the region. Phil | :07:19. | :07:22. | |
Connell has tonight's Look North report. | :07:23. | :07:31. | |
According to the RSPB, these pictures, filmed by covert cameras, | :07:32. | :07:35. | |
show the hidden crimes taking place in our countryside. Here, a | :07:36. | :07:40. | |
gamekeeper from Cumbria is seen using a stick to beat two buzzards | :07:41. | :07:45. | |
to death, which he had trapped in a cage. He was prosecuted through the | :07:46. | :07:49. | |
courts this year and received a suspended jail sentence. It is a | :07:50. | :07:55. | |
rogue element. Most modern gamekeepers are not stupid. They | :07:56. | :08:02. | |
know that there are many better ways of protecting game birds and other | :08:03. | :08:07. | |
creatures than going around knocking off the odd bird of prey. Across | :08:08. | :08:13. | |
your Yorkshire, the North East and Cumbria, there has been a feud tween | :08:14. | :08:17. | |
gamekeepers and animal welfare groups. `` a feud between some | :08:18. | :08:25. | |
gamekeepers and animal welfare groups. In the past, gamekeepers | :08:26. | :08:30. | |
have been frustrated by birds of prey, who they say killed the grouse | :08:31. | :08:35. | |
and pheasants they breed. The RSPB claims that because of art, birds of | :08:36. | :08:38. | |
prey have become targets themselves, with species like is virtually | :08:39. | :08:43. | |
nonexistent in our area. The latest figures show that last year, North | :08:44. | :08:48. | |
Yorkshire was the worst county in England for birds of prey being | :08:49. | :08:51. | |
killed, followed by Cumbria and Northumberland. Across the three | :08:52. | :08:56. | |
counties, there were 35 reported incidents of birds being shot, | :08:57. | :09:03. | |
dropped or poisoned. Just 15 of were confirmed that the RSPB leads it is | :09:04. | :09:08. | |
the tip of the iceberg. The legal traps that trap birds by their feet | :09:09. | :09:17. | |
are one of their worst concerns. `` the illegal traps. Just a black the | :09:18. | :09:25. | |
bird will land on the trot, trigger it. `` the bird of prey will land on | :09:26. | :09:32. | |
the track and trigger it. North Yorkshire Police say they will | :09:33. | :09:46. | |
be watching closely. This is a Victorian attitudes towards birds of | :09:47. | :09:52. | |
prey and gamekeepers, not all of them but just a feud that give | :09:53. | :09:54. | |
everyone a bad name, should just think again. Police say they will | :09:55. | :10:03. | |
actively prosecute anyone caught breaking the law and they said there | :10:04. | :10:08. | |
covert operations mean they are watching closely, even in the moat | :10:09. | :10:12. | |
parts of the countryside. `` remote parts. A new ?90 million | :10:13. | :10:16. | |
hospital for West Cumbria is gradually taking shape on a | :10:17. | :10:19. | |
construction site in Whitehaven. The existing West Cumberland Hospital | :10:20. | :10:21. | |
has faced a series of highly critical reports, with patient | :10:22. | :10:24. | |
concerns about the future of services. But a year from now, the | :10:25. | :10:28. | |
new hospital will be ready for final fitting`out, and today was an | :10:29. | :10:32. | |
opportunity to inspect progress. Graham Moss went for a look. | :10:33. | :10:41. | |
When it was opened in 1964, the West Cumberland Hospital was | :10:42. | :10:43. | |
state`of`the`art. The first others built hospital to be built by the | :10:44. | :10:49. | |
NHS. Half a century on, it no longer meets modern needs, but alongside | :10:50. | :10:54. | |
the existing building, the new hospital is taking shape. The hope | :10:55. | :10:57. | |
is it will signal a new chapter and confidence in health care on the | :10:58. | :11:03. | |
West Coast of Cumbria. It will be a world`class facility and from a | :11:04. | :11:07. | |
clinical point of view, it has all the things that are missing in the | :11:08. | :11:14. | |
existing block together. One of the concerns here in West Cumbria is | :11:15. | :11:23. | |
that although the hospital will be replacing the new, it may not | :11:24. | :11:26. | |
provide all the services currently available. It will have all the | :11:27. | :11:33. | |
facilities with the exception of some very high risk surgery. Those | :11:34. | :11:38. | |
patients will need to go to Carlisle. The rest of the people | :11:39. | :11:41. | |
will receive their care here in the local hospital, including bringing | :11:42. | :11:46. | |
people back to currently have to go elsewhere for orthopaedic | :11:47. | :11:50. | |
operations. The people of West Cumbria will have a hospital fit for | :11:51. | :11:53. | |
purpose and they will fit their needs, what they are going to need | :11:54. | :11:58. | |
in the next few years. Some of the existing hospital will be | :11:59. | :12:01. | |
refurbished, the rest demolished. So plenty of work still to come. The | :12:02. | :12:06. | |
first patient is due to be treated in the new building early in 2015. | :12:07. | :12:10. | |
There's plenty more to come in tonight's Look North. Jeff's here | :12:11. | :12:13. | |
with the sport and our newly crowned Unsung Hero. Find out how your | :12:14. | :12:17. | |
donations to Children In Need are making a difference to these young | :12:18. | :12:25. | |
people in Cumbria. And as today's sunny skies give way | :12:26. | :12:31. | |
to a year, cold night, I will be here with the full weather forecast. | :12:32. | :12:38. | |
A man from Durham has become a global hit on Twitter after tweeting | :12:39. | :12:42. | |
the Bible in more than 1,000 daily instalments. Chris Juby has | :12:43. | :12:45. | |
condensed every chapter of the Bible into a message of 140 characters, a | :12:46. | :12:49. | |
project that has taken him three years to complete. The discipline of | :12:50. | :12:59. | |
really sticking to what I set out to do, to summarise every single day, | :13:00. | :13:04. | |
has really had the biggest effect on me personally. It is the way it has | :13:05. | :13:09. | |
become just part of my life and such a deep habit. | :13:10. | :13:16. | |
She's been described as an inspiration to all. 15`year`old | :13:17. | :13:19. | |
Jacqueline Jaskowitz from Great Ayton was diagnosed with scoliosis | :13:20. | :13:24. | |
earlier this year. She had two curves in her spine, but struggled | :13:25. | :13:27. | |
to find information about the condition. So the teenager made a | :13:28. | :13:30. | |
film following her emotional journey from treatment to surgery, to help | :13:31. | :13:33. | |
others facing the same battle. Stuart Whincup reports. | :13:34. | :13:42. | |
A collection of photographs capture Jacqueline's story. From a happy, | :13:43. | :13:47. | |
healthy teenager ` who loved karate... She went to hospital after | :13:48. | :13:51. | |
complaining of headaches and was eventually diagnosed with scoliosis. | :13:52. | :13:59. | |
We really did not know what it was to begin with but when we found out, | :14:00. | :14:05. | |
I was in a lot of shock. I nearly burst out crying. So Jacqueline made | :14:06. | :14:10. | |
a list of the things she wanted to do before her surgery. | :14:11. | :14:21. | |
Then she decided to make a film about her treatment and recovery. | :14:22. | :14:33. | |
When I was first diagnosed, we went on to YouTube to find some other | :14:34. | :14:37. | |
videos but they were all Americans, so I could not really relate to it. | :14:38. | :14:42. | |
Thought if we made one for people with scoliosis in the UK to watch, | :14:43. | :14:46. | |
they could relate to it, so they could get help. Now Jacqueline's | :14:47. | :14:48. | |
courage has been recognised by her school. And last night she won its | :14:49. | :14:57. | |
Triumph Over Adversity Award. Inspired of the treatment and the | :14:58. | :15:00. | |
pain, she has come back on she does not make excuses, and she just gets | :15:01. | :15:07. | |
on with it. `` in spite of. So now happy and healthy ` Jacqueline has | :15:08. | :15:10. | |
high hopes for the future. I just want to get through school and pass | :15:11. | :15:15. | |
all my GCSEs. I just want a good future. | :15:16. | :15:27. | |
Now the sport, and news of another name we have to learn how to | :15:28. | :15:29. | |
pronounce. Yes, Middlesbrough look set to | :15:30. | :15:40. | |
appoint Aitor Karanka as their new manager. The Spaniard was Jose | :15:41. | :15:45. | |
Mourinho's right`hand man at Real Madrid, and it's reported he's | :15:46. | :15:47. | |
signed a two`and`half`year contract at the club. Mark Venus has been | :15:48. | :15:50. | |
caretaker`manager at the Riverside since Tony Mowbray was sacked three | :15:51. | :15:53. | |
weeks ago. The club's holding a press conference tomorrow morning. | :15:54. | :15:56. | |
Well, last night we spoke to Niall Quinn before he was given the | :15:57. | :16:00. | |
Freedom of the City of Sunderland. The Black Cats' former player, | :16:01. | :16:03. | |
manager and chairman picked up his award for the huge contribution he's | :16:04. | :16:06. | |
made to the city ` not just in footballing terms, but for his | :16:07. | :16:10. | |
charity and community work as well. After Martin O'Neill's comments | :16:11. | :16:12. | |
about Paolo di Canio being a "managerial charlatan", we took the | :16:13. | :16:15. | |
opportunity to ask Quinn for his thoughts on O'Neill, Di Canio and | :16:16. | :16:18. | |
what he makes of the apparent turnaround under new boss Gus Poyet. | :16:19. | :16:27. | |
It is back on target, and football does that. You cannot predict | :16:28. | :16:33. | |
football and anybody who can say outside of Sunderland that they were | :16:34. | :16:36. | |
going to beat Manchester City again, they would have laughed. I | :16:37. | :16:43. | |
did think that Niall Quinn was the man and I thought it would go from | :16:44. | :16:48. | |
strength to strength. `` Martin O'Neill was the man. The | :16:49. | :16:53. | |
relationship disappeared so and I could not understand that. Paolo | :16:54. | :16:58. | |
DiCaprio, we now know it was Ada Barco in many respects. I do not | :16:59. | :17:10. | |
know to my three that if I had been at the club, I do not think he would | :17:11. | :17:14. | |
have hit my radar. I am more than pleasantly surprised. `` I did not | :17:15. | :17:23. | |
know Gus Poyet. He is buying into the region though like I did all | :17:24. | :17:26. | |
season ago, and I like that. He has a team down the bottom of the | :17:27. | :17:31. | |
league, supposedly doomed to relegation. All the fears in the | :17:32. | :17:34. | |
world should be there but they have played some beautiful football. Wes | :17:35. | :17:39. | |
Brown is an inspiring leader, to come back in and do what he did | :17:40. | :17:43. | |
after 12 months. Something very good is happening. So having made | :17:44. | :17:48. | |
difficult choices and got perhaps one or two of them wrong, this man | :17:49. | :17:56. | |
deserves a pat on the back for doing what he did so quickly. The future | :17:57. | :18:00. | |
bodes well. I can watch it a little more relaxed. I want them to win | :18:01. | :18:06. | |
badly every time and certainly in the last couple of weeks, you think | :18:07. | :18:10. | |
that the impetus is there a game. It has been one of the biggest things | :18:11. | :18:16. | |
that have happened at the club for many years. | :18:17. | :18:19. | |
It's a busy week for Hartlepool, who are in cup action again tonight. The | :18:20. | :18:24. | |
League Two side beat League One Notts County in the FA Cup on | :18:25. | :18:28. | |
Saturday, and face more League One opposition tonight when they take on | :18:29. | :18:31. | |
Rotherham in the Johnstone's Paint Trophy. Pools are on a roll after | :18:32. | :18:34. | |
winning seven of their last eight games in all competitions, but Colin | :18:35. | :18:38. | |
Cooper ` who was named League Two's Manager of the Month for October ` | :18:39. | :18:42. | |
says his side mustn't start to take winning for granted. | :18:43. | :18:47. | |
Guarding against complacency is a massive thing. Once you go past | :18:48. | :18:50. | |
confidence into overconfidence, that is when you might think, OK, we just | :18:51. | :18:56. | |
have to turn up and things will fall into place. We get results from | :18:57. | :18:59. | |
working very hard as a group of players. I want to play nice | :19:00. | :19:06. | |
football but the work ethic has to be number one. | :19:07. | :19:09. | |
Now, last night we brought the last of our three contenders for this | :19:10. | :19:12. | |
year's Unsung Hero Award. We've been looking for someone who makes a | :19:13. | :19:15. | |
major contribution to the sporting life of the region ` without looking | :19:16. | :19:19. | |
for any reward. And from that short list, we're delighted to announce | :19:20. | :19:22. | |
the winner is... Syd Robson, a coach with Gateshead Harriers, who joined | :19:23. | :19:25. | |
me in the studio earlier this afternoon. | :19:26. | :19:29. | |
Congratulations. If you have not guessed, you are our Unsung Hero | :19:30. | :19:42. | |
Award win four `` the 2013. That is a surprise. I did not want to be in | :19:43. | :19:48. | |
it. Somebody else put me in. You have been involved in athletics | :19:49. | :19:52. | |
since 1945. How do you keep the enthusiasm going? I have always | :19:53. | :19:59. | |
found it enjoyable. I have never thought, oh, I have got to go | :20:00. | :20:06. | |
training. Not even on a cold, wet Tuesday night in November? I see my | :20:07. | :20:19. | |
neighbours at work about 6:15pm and they are sitting watching the telly | :20:20. | :20:22. | |
and when I come back at 9pm, they are still sitting watching the telly | :20:23. | :20:27. | |
and that would drive me mad. You are missing look North X `` Look North! | :20:28. | :20:37. | |
Have you ever sat down and calculated all the hours you put | :20:38. | :20:45. | |
in? You never think about it. You give people lifts. I taken from | :20:46. | :20:53. | |
about 11 up to about 14 or 15. John said to me years ago, does it not | :20:54. | :20:57. | |
bother that when they get to 14 or 15, they move into his group? I said | :20:58. | :21:05. | |
no, as long as I see them improving. Fantastic. Well done. We should also | :21:06. | :21:12. | |
say well done to our other nominees, Keith Wilcox and Michele Weedy. But | :21:13. | :21:19. | |
this is your trophy. You will be officially presented with it in the | :21:20. | :21:22. | |
North East Sports Awards in the New Year. Until then, you will be at the | :21:23. | :21:30. | |
BBC Sports Personality of the Year Awards on the 15th of December. The | :21:31. | :21:36. | |
day after the Cross country Championships. He's always thinking | :21:37. | :21:42. | |
about training! And it is training night to night so he has missed | :21:43. | :21:46. | |
seeing himself on the telly. Friday is the BBC's annual | :21:47. | :21:48. | |
fundraising extravaganza for Children In Need. And this week, | :21:49. | :21:52. | |
we've been looking at where the ?1.3 million raised last year in the | :21:53. | :21:55. | |
North East and Cumbria is being spent. And thanks to your donations, | :21:56. | :21:59. | |
Carlisle Mencap is helping some of the region's most vulnerable | :22:00. | :22:01. | |
youngsters enjoy some of the things others take for granted. Like making | :22:02. | :22:05. | |
a racket on the drums! Hannah Bayman reports. | :22:06. | :22:17. | |
Making music together. Children at Mencap's centre in Carlisle are | :22:18. | :22:20. | |
having a go at playing Indonesian instruments. Today we are | :22:21. | :22:24. | |
introducing them to this set of instruments from Anthony share. `` | :22:25. | :22:32. | |
from Indonesia. This is teamwork, it is about sticking together, using | :22:33. | :22:36. | |
your head. Nobody feels out on a limb and isolated when you are doing | :22:37. | :22:52. | |
group music. Perfect. One more time, a little bit quicker. These children | :22:53. | :22:55. | |
have disabilities including autism, Down's syndrome, cerebral palsy and | :22:56. | :23:00. | |
sensory loss. Children In Need funding pays for Mencap to take more | :23:01. | :23:04. | |
than 40 children from Cumbria on one holiday in the UK each year. Are | :23:05. | :23:13. | |
holidays are special. We do not just take them on holiday. We take them | :23:14. | :23:17. | |
on a cultural holiday, doing something like this, a theatre | :23:18. | :23:21. | |
school when they will do a performance at the end. We take them | :23:22. | :23:28. | |
abseiling and rock climbing. We also do a really nice city break. So that | :23:29. | :23:33. | |
they can go and chill out. What do you like best about coming here? | :23:34. | :23:40. | |
Seeing friends. Being able to do stuff and it feels like home. There | :23:41. | :23:53. | |
is... The swings and roundabouts. The holidays are great and the kids | :23:54. | :23:57. | |
get the opportunity to go and experience things that they might | :23:58. | :24:01. | |
not otherwise experience. Climbing, abseiling, canoeing... Seen the | :24:02. | :24:07. | |
enjoyment on their faces and their confidence improve makes a big | :24:08. | :24:12. | |
difference. I can see that their social skills and communication | :24:13. | :24:16. | |
skills are really coming along. They really come out of their shells. A | :24:17. | :24:23. | |
little bit of money goes a long way for these children. If you do not | :24:24. | :24:26. | |
pick up the phone these children will not get the opportunity | :24:27. | :24:30. | |
anywhere else. Another way Pudsey's favourite charity is making children | :24:31. | :24:33. | |
smile. Hannah Bayman, BBC Look North, in Carlisle. | :24:34. | :24:38. | |
One ways you can keep the penny is coming in is by buying our calendar. | :24:39. | :24:46. | |
And lots of people have been already. | :24:47. | :24:51. | |
Thousands sold. And Pudsey Bear is out and about promoting and selling | :24:52. | :24:56. | |
the look North weather calendar this week. He always causes a stir, | :24:57. | :25:02. | |
especially when he arrives on his special bus. Him and hammer were | :25:03. | :25:07. | |
kept easy this afternoon signing calendars. And the Roman soldiers | :25:08. | :25:14. | |
were there to lend a hand. That links into some nonsense that is | :25:15. | :25:22. | |
going on on Friday night in aid of Children In Need in Hexham. | :25:23. | :25:27. | |
Come along if you can tomorrow in Middlesbrough and buy a calendar | :25:28. | :25:37. | |
while they last. If you live in some of the high ground in our region, | :25:38. | :25:39. | |
winter is already here. Overnight tonight, a feel of winter. | :25:40. | :25:50. | |
No snow expected but certainly a dry picture and clearing skies as we | :25:51. | :25:55. | |
head through the evening. The light wind and a touch of frost in many | :25:56. | :26:01. | |
places. Today, most places stayed dry and the broken cloud gave us | :26:02. | :26:05. | |
some sunny spells. This evening the sunny spells are replaced by clear | :26:06. | :26:12. | |
skies. The heat will drop away and there will be quite a range of | :26:13. | :26:16. | |
temperatures overnight. A westerly breeze on the Cumbrian coast. A | :26:17. | :26:25. | |
little bit of cloud will keep the temperature `` temperatures up. | :26:26. | :26:30. | |
Outlying areas in the countryside could well have temperatures closer | :26:31. | :26:34. | |
to freezing and some of us will need the de`icer first in tomorrow. A | :26:35. | :26:42. | |
dry, bright one tomorrow. The cloud gradually building up through the | :26:43. | :26:45. | |
West. That thick cloud eventually spreading with outbreaks of rain | :26:46. | :26:50. | |
through the West through the afternoon and tomorrow evening. And | :26:51. | :26:55. | |
which is just into double figures. The cloud and rain accompanied by a | :26:56. | :26:59. | |
strengthening south`westerly wind. This frontal system is breaking the | :27:00. | :27:04. | |
wet and windy weather. It moves in through West to East. It brings a | :27:05. | :27:09. | |
mild night. The ridge of high pressure tends to keep things fairly | :27:10. | :27:13. | |
dry as we head towards the tail end of the week. If you are out and | :27:14. | :27:17. | |
about on Thursday, no warmer than recently. Temperatures only just | :27:18. | :27:25. | |
making double figures. A bit more cloud around on Friday. You can keep | :27:26. | :27:29. | |
eyeing up to day with the forecast on the go with the BBC weather app. | :27:30. | :27:37. | |
Have you put my three calendar aside? | :27:38. | :27:43. | |
Yes. No discount, mind! Good night. | :27:44. | :27:46. |
