It was the moment he thought he was going to die. Paul Stephenson, the | :00:17. | :00:20. | |
double`decker driver left trapped in the wreckage of the Stanley | :00:21. | :00:22. | |
school bus crash, has been re`living what happened for Look North. | :00:23. | :00:25. | |
Paul, who's 54, is just out of hospital. | :00:26. | :00:28. | |
He's been praised for putting the safety of his passengers first, | :00:29. | :00:31. | |
even though he was inches from being killed in Tuesday's crash | :00:32. | :00:34. | |
Paul's been talking to our Chief Reporter Chris Stewart. | :00:35. | :00:38. | |
I've got a big cut on my right knee because I had | :00:39. | :00:41. | |
I've got fracture ribs, grazes on my hands and elbows. | :00:42. | :00:49. | |
On the top of my head, I've got stitches where a big gash w`s. | :00:50. | :00:54. | |
And it could, perhaps should, have been much worse. | :00:55. | :00:57. | |
I thought, I'm lucky to be `live, basically. | :00:58. | :01:05. | |
I shouted out to the kids, we're going to hit something, | :01:06. | :01:08. | |
The bus was coming through the screen, everything shattered, | :01:09. | :01:13. | |
I was leaning back, but obvhously I was trapped in the cab. | :01:14. | :01:19. | |
Then it stopped and it was, like, six inches off my face, | :01:20. | :01:27. | |
Then there was an eerie sildnce and the kids just went, "Aaaaaa`argh!" | :01:28. | :01:35. | |
They all came rushing to thd front, but they couldn't get off | :01:36. | :01:39. | |
the front, so I had to tell them, you need to go up the back of the | :01:40. | :01:44. | |
bus and get off the back of the bus as quickly and safely as yot can. | :01:45. | :01:50. | |
I was covered in blood becatse of the cut on my head. | :01:51. | :01:53. | |
And this young lassie came `nd looked at me and she just started | :01:54. | :02:01. | |
The first night I was in thd hospital I had the vision of the bus | :02:02. | :02:09. | |
You've got to think positivd about things. | :02:10. | :02:17. | |
And odd twist is that the children on your bus were | :02:18. | :02:20. | |
from St Bede's of Lanchester, which is your old school. | :02:21. | :02:23. | |
30 victims altogether and a 12`year`old boy still in hospital. | :02:24. | :02:33. | |
The investigation by Durham police into just what went | :02:34. | :02:35. | |
Two people were treated in hospital after | :02:36. | :02:45. | |
It happened at a recycling plant on McMullen Road. | :02:46. | :02:50. | |
They went to the town's Memorial Hospital suffering skin irrhtation | :02:51. | :02:54. | |
The hospital was closed to `ll but emergency cases while | :02:55. | :02:59. | |
It's thought they'd spilt the substance on themselves. | :03:00. | :03:03. | |
The injuries were not seriots and the hospital has now reopened. | :03:04. | :03:09. | |
It was the highest tide Teesside had seen in 150 years | :03:10. | :03:13. | |
Six months ago today the cldar up operation was beginning in Port | :03:14. | :03:18. | |
Clarence after hundreds of people were forced to leave their homes. | :03:19. | :03:21. | |
The Environment Agency is now working on | :03:22. | :03:23. | |
a ?9 million flood defence scheme for the area and 50 residents | :03:24. | :03:26. | |
and businesses are being helped to apply for government grants. | :03:27. | :03:30. | |
This was Port Clarence last December. | :03:31. | :03:36. | |
Record flooding, hundreds forced to leave their homes. | :03:37. | :03:38. | |
It's awful. The smell is disgusting. It's not nice. I feel like crying. | :03:39. | :03:51. | |
Stephen showed up his mums shaking floor. | :03:52. | :03:58. | |
You're walking across it and it just breaks. You're falling throtgh the | :03:59. | :04:01. | |
floorboards. We spoke to Billy six months ago | :04:02. | :04:04. | |
as he trudged back to Today his property and garddns have | :04:05. | :04:07. | |
been repaired, but he's now nervous when he hears there's going to be | :04:08. | :04:12. | |
a another high tide. You just keep praying and hope not | :04:13. | :04:28. | |
going to happen. I couldn't handle that again. | :04:29. | :04:31. | |
Around 50 families and businesses are now being helped to apply | :04:32. | :04:34. | |
for a ?5,000 government grant to protect them from future flooding. | :04:35. | :04:39. | |
It's flooding of both floorboards level. They might not be able to | :04:40. | :04:54. | |
claim under the screen. It hs very restricted. The environment agency | :04:55. | :05:07. | |
is developing a new scheme here and work is expected to start in March. | :05:08. | :05:12. | |
Some people are sceptical. They say they have heard this before. They | :05:13. | :05:17. | |
say they will only believe ht's going to happen when the work | :05:18. | :05:18. | |
actually starts. A veteran of the D` Day landings who | :05:19. | :05:22. | |
should have been in Normandx today was guest of honour at a melorial | :05:23. | :05:26. | |

his former comrades at the commemoration servicd in | :05:31. | :05:33. | |
France because his name was misspelt However, the | :05:34. | :05:36. | |
Sedgefield Village Veterans stepped in to make Jim welcome at their own, | :05:37. | :05:42. | |
somewhat smaller, celebrations. The Theatre Royal in Newcastle | :05:43. | :05:54. | |
staged one of its most romantic 180 friends | :05:55. | :05:57. | |
and relatives packed the st`lls to see Louise and Darren, the new Mr | :05:58. | :06:02. | |
and Mrs Kempson, tie the knot. Louise said she chose the Theatre | :06:03. | :06:05. | |
Royal after performing therd herself as an amateur actress and it was the | :06:06. | :06:08. | |
place where Darren had proposed Newcastle United have made | :06:09. | :06:15. | |
their first signing of the summer. Ayoze Perez has completed | :06:16. | :06:17. | |

in Spain's second tier last season Now it's time for the weathdr. It is | :06:21. | :06:41. | |
mostly dry this evening. Ovdrnight, clear spells. The cloud will | :06:42. | :06:49. | |
increase in the West later. It starts up mostly dry tomorrow | :06:50. | :06:54. | |
sunshine in the east. The thicker cloud in the West will spre`d | :06:55. | :07:01. | |
outbreaks of rain in the West. The bright greens and yellow here | :07:02. | :07:06. | |
indicate the risk of some rdally heavy downpours. There could be | :07:07. | :07:11. | |
hail, some thunder and some lightning. It will be hot and humid. | :07:12. | :07:16. | |

scattered shells scattered showers `` scattered | :07:32. | :07:31. | |
improve to some extent. The showers move away and a fresh appeal to | :07:32. | :07:33. | |
things. Good evening. The good news is, | :07:34. | :07:42. | |
there will be some decent dry on a sunny moment to come through the | :07:43. | :07:45. | |
weekend. But over the next 24 hours, the threat of thunderstorms | :07:46. | :07:49. | |
looms large. The ingredients have been coming together today - warm | :07:50. | :07:53. | |
air pushing northwards out of Iberia, cooler air from the Atlantic | :07:54. | :07:57. | |
trying to pushed away. In between the cloud has been building with a | :07:58. | :08:01. | |
lot of energy in the atmosphere sparking off some nasty | :08:02. | :08:04. | |
thunderstorms across parts of northern Spain and south-west | :08:05. | :08:07. | |
France. They will produce most of the rainfall tomorrow. Ahead of it, | :08:08. | :08:13. | |
the cloud is starting to produce thunderstorms itself. We've seen in | :08:14. | :08:17. | |
Cornwall. A few sporadic thunderstorms across central and | :08:18. | :08:20. | |
southern areas and towards Northern Ireland through the | :08:21. | :08:21. |
