The funeral of Neil Dalton, one of the two Newcastle Unhversity | :01:02. | :01:04. | |
medical students murdered in Malaysia, took place tod`y. | :01:05. | :01:08. | |
Hundreds attended the service in Neil's home town of Belpdr | :01:09. | :01:10. | |
Neil and fellow medical student Aiden Brunger, whose funeral took | :01:11. | :01:13. | |
place in private last week, were killed in Kuching, where thdy had | :01:14. | :01:16. | |
Staff and students from Newcastle University were among the mourners. | :01:17. | :01:23. | |
It was a response that showdd just how popular this young man had been. | :01:24. | :01:35. | |
As many as 500 people arrivdd at the church in Belper to say | :01:36. | :01:43. | |
The 22`year`old student was killed in Borneo earlier this month. | :01:44. | :01:46. | |
He was working in a hospital, on placement from Newcastle Unhversity. | :01:47. | :01:50. | |
Many others fellow students attended the funeral, along with old school | :01:51. | :01:53. | |
friends and his cricket teal, who wore their whites. | :01:54. | :01:59. | |
He was very popular, he made people laugh, he was fun to | :02:00. | :02:02. | |
be with, but at the same tile he really cared about people. | :02:03. | :02:06. | |
Even his family saw him as an inspiration to them, | :02:07. | :02:08. | |
so that is what I hope is the message that we get out. | :02:09. | :02:12. | |
After his family arrived and the coffin was carried hn, | :02:13. | :02:14. | |
Two of his best friends spoke and some | :02:15. | :02:18. | |
There may still be questions over who ended his life | :02:19. | :02:25. | |
and exactly why they did it, but today was about remembering | :02:26. | :02:28. | |
On the first page of the order of service, it simply says "Don t | :02:29. | :02:48. | |
be sad that it's gone, be h`ppy that it happened." | :02:49. | :02:54. | |
Even though it has been a short`lived | :02:55. | :02:57. | |
life, it has been well lived and I want people to go away and say, | :02:58. | :03:01. | |
It is such a shame that his life has ended so suddenly, | :03:02. | :03:05. | |
The impression I want to give is that he is a young man who wanted to | :03:06. | :03:11. | |
change the world and did evdrything he could to achieve that. | :03:12. | :03:13. | |
Joanne Milne, who was thrust into the global spotlight after `n online | :03:14. | :03:16. | |
video appeared of her hearing for the first time, has been asked to | :03:17. | :03:19. | |
become an ambassador for a charity for deaf people, set up by lembers | :03:20. | :03:23. | |
And this week she met Merrill Osmond and his son Justin, who's ddaf. | :03:24. | :03:27. | |
The group set up the Hearing Fund UK. | :03:28. | :03:29. | |
The much`anticipated meeting took place here at the BBC studios | :03:30. | :03:32. | |
Stephanie Cleasby has tonight's Look North Report. | :03:33. | :03:38. | |
They may live thousands of miles apart, but Joanne `nd the | :03:39. | :03:46. | |
Merrill and his son Justin, who is deaf, got in touch with Joanne after | :03:47. | :03:53. | |
It's all right, it is a big, big life changing day. | :03:54. | :04:08. | |
Five months ago, she was overcome with emotion when | :04:09. | :04:10. | |
her cochlear implants were switched on, ending her life of silence. | :04:11. | :04:13. | |
My whole family was emotion`l, anyway, but when we saw what | :04:14. | :04:28. | |
The Osmonds were one of the biggest bands of the 70s | :04:29. | :04:33. | |
and are still entertaining `udiences all over the world. | :04:34. | :04:36. | |
Behind all the showbiz glitz and glamour, | :04:37. | :04:41. | |
We have the same situation in our family. | :04:42. | :04:46. | |
In fact, a lot of people don't know this, but the reason why we got | :04:47. | :04:50. | |
started was because we wantdd to raise money to buy hearing `ids | :04:51. | :04:53. | |
That is why the Osmonds got started singing | :04:54. | :04:58. | |
Justin, who lives with a 90% hearing loss, is conthnuing | :04:59. | :05:08. | |
the Osmond family's work, raising money for deaf children | :05:09. | :05:10. | |
He has asked Joanne to becole an ambassador for his charity. | :05:11. | :05:15. | |
We are just excited and honoured and very privileged to have you be | :05:16. | :05:20. | |
a hearing ambassador with our family and the Osmonds. | :05:21. | :05:25. | |
And to help spread the mess`ge of hope. | :05:26. | :05:30. | |
Back at home, Joanne, whose condition is also claiming her | :05:31. | :05:37. | |
Since becoming an Internet sensation, people all over the world | :05:38. | :05:44. | |
have got in touch, some havd composed music especially for her. | :05:45. | :06:01. | |
And to think someone took the time to do that. | :06:02. | :06:14. | |
It's just absolutely beautiful, what the general public are doing, | :06:15. | :06:23. | |
the messages of support and well wishing. | :06:24. | :06:34. | |
After 40 years of silence, she has now entered a world of noise. | :06:35. | :06:40. | |
The best noise is definitely laughter. | :06:41. | :06:50. | |
And the most moving sound of all, her own voice. | :06:51. | :07:05. | |
I had speech therapy from the age of two. | :07:06. | :07:07. | |
With lip`reading, you can still pick up how you would | :07:08. | :07:11. | |
I remember when I heard my `ccent for the first time, it was very .. | :07:12. | :07:22. | |
I didn't realise that I would have this sort of dialect. | :07:23. | :07:25. | |
And listen to BBC Newcastle tomorrow morning with Alfie and Charlie | :07:26. | :07:35. | |
from 7am, when Joanne makes a bit of a confession about The Osmonds. | :07:36. | :07:45. | |
Police are investigating after pills were found on a production line | :07:46. | :07:48. | |
Staff spotted the tablets on the line at the Nestle f`ctory | :07:49. | :07:52. | |
A spokesman for Nestle said the pills were a standard prescription | :07:53. | :07:58. | |
tablet, commonly prescribed to both adults and children. | :07:59. | :08:03. | |
The incident was spotted before the sweets were pack`ged | :08:04. | :08:08. | |
There are concerns that the Pacer rail buses which operate on many | :08:09. | :08:11. | |
of the region's local lines might stay in use longer than expdcted. | :08:12. | :08:14. | |
The trains, which are around 30 years old, | :08:15. | :08:16. | |
The Department for Transport says they could be modernised to keep | :08:17. | :08:21. | |
Around 70 jobs are being crdated in West Cumbria | :08:22. | :08:27. | |
after a ?3.5 million investlent in a manufacturing company. | :08:28. | :08:30. | |
TIS Cumbria makes items for use in the nuclear decommissioning process. | :08:31. | :08:33. | |
Two local men started the btsiness from scratch 20 years ago. | :08:34. | :08:38. | |
Today their new plant was opened and Alison Freeman was therd. | :08:39. | :08:42. | |
James and Danielle were among workers at TIS that helped build | :08:43. | :08:49. | |
They are just two of the apprentices being given opportunities hdre | :08:50. | :08:57. | |
There aren't that many opportunities for youngsters these days. | :08:58. | :09:10. | |
I probably would have gone down the University route, | :09:11. | :09:13. | |
but I would have had a lot of debt and perhaps not a job. | :09:14. | :09:16. | |
When I set off, there were 05 to 20 applicants, now we get | :09:17. | :09:19. | |
The 4000 square metre manuf`cturing wall is where TIS makes the | :09:20. | :09:24. | |
components it has designed for the nuclear decommissioning process | :09:25. | :09:28. | |
The company has been built up over the past 20 years. | :09:29. | :09:34. | |
Their commitment to local staff and businesses in | :09:35. | :09:36. | |
the supply chain has attracted more than ?700,000 of investment. | :09:37. | :09:44. | |
There is up to 50, 60, 100 xears work to come off the plant. | :09:45. | :09:49. | |
Companies like we have built up at the moment, | :09:50. | :09:52. | |
have to be ready for that and the only people that really need to | :09:53. | :09:56. | |
Manufacturing is 25% of our economy, which is twice the national | :09:57. | :10:04. | |
average, so it is a strength for us in Cumbria, we should build on it. | :10:05. | :10:10. | |
We often struggle for capachty and work sometimes goes out | :10:11. | :10:12. | |
of the county, so it is fantastic to open a new capacity in Cumbria. | :10:13. | :10:17. | |
TIS has opened this warehouse where companies that are working out how | :10:18. | :10:23. | |
to decommission Sellafield can build replicas | :10:24. | :10:25. | |
That also means they can pr`ctice the work they have to carry out in a | :10:26. | :10:33. | |
The parts they will use in the work are made just metrds away, | :10:34. | :10:38. | |
meaning modifications can bd easily made and the company's relationships | :10:39. | :10:41. | |
with clients stays strong, demonstrating the foresight of the | :10:42. | :10:43. | |
Alison's in our Carlisle newsroom now. | :10:44. | :10:55. | |
Alison, how significant is this development? | :10:56. | :11:03. | |
It is to be the largest new manufacturing build in West Cumbria | :11:04. | :11:12. | |
for the past 30 years and it is hoped other businesses will follow | :11:13. | :11:17. | |
suit. Big projects like the decommissioning of Sellafield often | :11:18. | :11:23. | |
find it hard to find capacity and local businesses for work that needs | :11:24. | :11:27. | |
doing. That work then leaves the county. There are more projdcts | :11:28. | :11:31. | |
coming to the county in the coming years. It is hoped local businesses | :11:32. | :11:38. | |
will be able to harness somd of the investment and put it back hnto the | :11:39. | :11:40. | |
local economy. As we saw in Alison's report, | :11:41. | :11:47. | |
companies like TIS are creating a dem`nd | :11:48. | :11:49. | |
for young engineering apprentices. And a new free school that `ims to | :11:50. | :11:51. | |
get young people in the North East into engineering is | :11:52. | :11:55. | |
about to open its doors. Discovery School in Newcastle will | :11:56. | :11:57. | |
try to address a skills shortage in industry, and, it's clailed, | :11:58. | :11:59. | |
help drive the economy. Our Business Correspondent Han Reeve | :12:00. | :12:02. | |
reports. A year late, but, | :12:03. | :12:03. | |
as the cliche has it, better late than never, bec`use this | :12:04. | :12:05. | |
new school in Newcastle, wahting for the new term to get young | :12:06. | :12:08. | |
people into engineering and science, Very much so, | :12:09. | :12:11. | |
we need people to fill the skills gap across the North East, `cross | :12:12. | :12:14. | |
our country and the world, too. They are part | :12:15. | :12:41. | |
of the first intake that will total It offers more than the average | :12:42. | :12:48. | |
school and it hopefully means I will have more experience if I do want to | :12:49. | :12:56. | |
go to university, the school can It was a dream pad and was put up | :12:57. | :13:00. | |
evening, there was something that It was a dream pad and was put up | :13:01. | :14:40. | |
for sale two years ago for 6.5 million pounds. What does this by | :14:41. | :14:46. | |
you? Is soothing pool, seven bedrooms, a bar, a cinema. @ nine | :14:47. | :14:51. | |
car garage. Every detail is the spoke. But it is a buyer 's' market | :14:52. | :14:59. | |
and without a sale the owners dropped the price. We had e`rly bids | :15:00. | :15:08. | |
that are higher than what it sold for, but they did not transpire The | :15:09. | :15:14. | |
client said they had to sell it so we took it down to a level that the | :15:15. | :15:21. | |
markets would react to. The family that bought the house wants to | :15:22. | :15:25. | |
remain anonymous. But it is a bargain. Apparently, you cotld not | :15:26. | :15:30. | |
build this house for the money. Timing is everything. If yot get the | :15:31. | :15:35. | |
timing right, you're done wdll. Further up the road, another mansion | :15:36. | :15:39. | |
for sale. This was is in thd millions. With confidence ldvel is | :15:40. | :15:49. | |
low, houses like this, once known for being the most expensivd in the | :15:50. | :15:54. | |
area, could be named the most discounted. | :15:55. | :15:58. | |
Now let's go to the other end of the "housing" market. | :15:59. | :16:02. | |
Earlier this year we reportdd on the plight of the Cleveland Juniors | :16:03. | :16:05. | |
The club, which once produced stars lhke | :16:06. | :16:07. | |
England player Jonathan Woodgate, had been reduced to using a shipping | :16:08. | :16:10. | |
But the club's been given a new lease of life. | :16:11. | :16:17. | |
And earlier today the former Middlesbrough and England | :16:18. | :16:19. | |
manager Steve McClaren officially opened new facilities. | :16:20. | :16:20. | |
When Frank Rush started Cleveland Juniors in 1985, | :16:21. | :16:32. | |
the dream was to build a football club that would be at the hdart | :16:33. | :16:35. | |
of the community and make top`class coaching available to everyone. | :16:36. | :16:37. | |
But following his death, Frank's dream went into decline | :16:38. | :16:40. | |
and the club ended up calling this rusting cargo container homd. | :16:41. | :16:45. | |
And that was when Frank's d`ughter Michelle stepped | :16:46. | :16:47. | |
It was my life. It was the best years of my life, even though I did | :16:48. | :17:06. | |
not play long for myself. When my dad passed, the idea of loshng the | :17:07. | :17:11. | |
club was too much to lose all at once, so my only option was to do | :17:12. | :17:16. | |
something about it and kind people came along and wanted to help. | :17:17. | :17:21. | |
Today, with the help of a football charity, the Football Found`tion and | :17:22. | :17:23. | |
Sport England, the club now has the facilities Frank had dreamed of | :17:24. | :17:27. | |
And even Steve McClaren was on hand to open the new clubhouse. | :17:28. | :17:33. | |
What impresses me is the fact that they have 42 volunteer coaches who | :17:34. | :17:43. | |
give up their time and energy to coach these boys and that is the | :17:44. | :17:51. | |
most important factor. It is fantastic. I think my dad would be | :17:52. | :18:00. | |
proud and he would be grateful to everyone that has helped us get to | :18:01. | :18:04. | |
this point. I think he would be taken aback by it, but I know he is | :18:05. | :18:10. | |
seeing it and he will be just as happy as we are. | :18:11. | :18:17. | |
Sunderland reached the final of the Capital One Cup back in March. | :18:18. | :18:23. | |
Tonight they're at 2011 winners Birmingham City | :18:24. | :18:25. | |
Already through to this evening s draw are Newcastle | :18:26. | :18:28. | |
Both avoided upsets against League One opposition last night. | :18:29. | :18:33. | |
It's a tried and trusted clhche but goals really can be rather | :18:34. | :18:37. | |
like buses ` you wait 50 minutes for one to turn up and four come | :18:38. | :18:40. | |
along at once, well within a quarter of an hour at least. | :18:41. | :18:44. | |
Lee Tomlin's good start to the season continues. | :18:45. | :18:46. | |
He put Boro in front against Preston. | :18:47. | :18:49. | |
Just three minutes later, a Teessider, Jordan, | :18:50. | :18:51. | |
But when Albert Adomah's te`sing cross was turned into his own net | :18:52. | :18:56. | |
by Tom Clarke under pressurd from Bradley Fewster, you sdnsed a | :18:57. | :19:01. | |
Boro side with half the teal made up of fringe players still had enough | :19:02. | :19:04. | |
Tomlin completed the scoring to make it 3`1 after Preston had wasted | :19:05. | :19:09. | |
He could be an important pl`yer for Boro if they're to launch | :19:10. | :19:14. | |
The League is also Newcastld's priority, although these so`king | :19:15. | :19:18. | |
They haven't had too much to cheer in the knockout competitions lately. | :19:19. | :19:25. | |
Mind you, Alan Pardew's dechsion to field a pretty strong te`m | :19:26. | :19:28. | |
It was one of his more frustrating fringe players, | :19:29. | :19:31. | |
Ex`Sunderland defender John Egan turning the ball into his own net. | :19:32. | :19:36. | |
League One Gillingham weren't planning just to make up | :19:37. | :19:38. | |
Massadio Haidara could have doubled the visitors' lead | :19:39. | :19:42. | |
in the second half, but Tim Krul had to be at his sharpest to sed them | :19:43. | :19:46. | |
Now they just need to score a goal for themselves this season. | :19:47. | :19:53. | |
So it's Sunderland's turn tonight, they're playing Birmingham. | :19:54. | :19:55. | |
The Black Cats clearly know what it takes to make it to Wembley, | :19:56. | :19:58. | |
having made the League Cup final last season, but head coach | :19:59. | :20:01. | |
Gus Poyet isn't expecting an easy ride, as we report. | :20:02. | :20:05. | |
When Sunderland take on Birlingham tonight, | :20:06. | :20:07. | |
they will be up against a f`miliar face in Blues manager Lee Clark | :20:08. | :20:11. | |
The former Newcastle midfielder spent two years | :20:12. | :20:14. | |
on Wearside helping the Black Cats get promotion in 1999. | :20:15. | :20:21. | |
But he was forced to leave after being spotted wearing | :20:22. | :20:23. | |
15 years on, that is water tnder the bridge as Sunderland had for their | :20:24. | :20:29. | |
They were talking more about Wembley than anything else. | :20:30. | :20:43. | |
Now, if it is difficult to get to Wembley | :20:44. | :20:49. | |
But to get there you must perform and beat teams. | :20:50. | :20:56. | |
After draws with West Brom and man United, | :20:57. | :20:59. | |
Gus Poyet's team are looking to pick up their first win of the sdason. | :21:00. | :21:04. | |
They are favourites ahead of tonight's tie, but | :21:05. | :21:07. | |
the Uruguayan is not taking another extended cup tie for granted. | :21:08. | :21:16. | |
Sometimes, you get lucky and get tough teams in the beginning and | :21:17. | :21:19. | |
When you win, I think it helps the group. | :21:20. | :21:33. | |
And you can watch highlights of this evening's and last night's | :21:34. | :21:35. | |
Capital One Cup ties here on BBC1 in The League Cup Show. | :21:36. | :21:44. | |
Hoping to play in next season's League Cup are Gateshead. | :21:45. | :21:46. | |
But the Conference play`off finalists will have to achidve | :21:47. | :21:49. | |
promotion without their exchting young forward Marcus Maddison who | :21:50. | :21:52. | |
today joined Peterborough United on a four`year deal. | :21:53. | :21:56. | |
Maddison, seen here after scoring in the first game of the season, was | :21:57. | :21:59. | |
Now, on last night's Look North Brendan Foster joined us here in the | :22:00. | :22:10. | |
studio to announce that Sting would be performing tracks from hhs album | :22:11. | :22:13. | |
The Last Ship at the spectacular opening of the One Millionth runner | :22:14. | :22:16. | |
celebrations before this year's Great North Run. | :22:17. | :22:18. | |
But it's not going to be thd only chance fans have to hear hil. | :22:19. | :22:22. | |
Because next April Sting is to stage two concerts at the Sage, G`teshead. | :22:23. | :22:25. | |
He'll be joined by other North East music stars performing the `lbum, | :22:26. | :22:28. | |
which was inspired by his experiences growing tp in the | :22:29. | :22:31. | |
Proceeds from the two concerts will go towards the Sage | :22:32. | :22:34. | |
Here's our arts reporter Sharuna Sagar. | :22:35. | :22:53. | |
This was in New York in October in aid of the city's Public Thdatre. | :22:54. | :23:00. | |
And that run was the only time he's actually | :23:01. | :23:02. | |
Inspired by the shipbuilding community in Wallsend where he was | :23:03. | :23:07. | |
born and raised, the songs form part of a Broadway | :23:08. | :23:10. | |
The original idea was borne on Tyneside and the intention was | :23:11. | :23:17. | |
It was with local actors originally. It was important is to | :23:18. | :23:41. | |
begin. What I would really like to do is take it back there. T`ke that | :23:42. | :23:43. | |
ship back. And so The Last Ship is comhng | :23:44. | :23:48. | |
back in April next year. Two concerts on the 23rd and 24th | :23:49. | :23:51. | |
this time to raise money for Sage It is an amazing birthday present. | :23:52. | :24:06. | |
It is a statement. He has sden the work we are doing and I think he has | :24:07. | :24:14. | |
a sense of how important it is. He has generously donated his own time | :24:15. | :24:20. | |
to the project and this is his way of securing our foundation for the | :24:21. | :24:24. | |
long`term and I think it is a very generous thing for him to do. | :24:25. | :24:30. | |
Sting will be performing with many of the region's best loved | :24:31. | :24:32. | |
musicians including a Northtmbrian pipe player AC/DC's Brian Johnson. | :24:33. | :24:34. | |
The price of tickets is expdcted to be high and the demand | :24:35. | :24:37. | |
We have to compete with that finish. Temperatures got to within ` degree | :24:38. | :25:11. | |
of freezing last night. This afternoon, the breeze comes and we | :25:12. | :25:21. | |
saw highs of 19 Celsius. Yot can see to the south`west, a lot of cloud | :25:22. | :25:26. | |
and rain and that is beginnhng to head our way. As we had through this | :25:27. | :25:30. | |
evening and overnight, the cloud will continue to thicken up from the | :25:31. | :25:35. | |
south`west and eventually the cloud will produce rain. Most of the rain | :25:36. | :25:40. | |
will be from main hours. It will move through fairly quickly, much | :25:41. | :25:43. | |
milder than last night, temperatures in double figures for all the coming | :25:44. | :25:52. | |
night. Tomorrow morning, rahn clears North and East and behind it we | :25:53. | :26:00. | |
start to see the cloud break. Before the next band of cloud starts to | :26:01. | :26:04. | |
spreading from the West through the afternoon, somewhere like Whitley | :26:05. | :26:08. | |
might miss the showers, stage right, and it won't be called, to which is | :26:09. | :26:16. | |
up to 20 maybe 21 Celsius. Ht stays unsettled. Friday, low pressure is | :26:17. | :26:23. | |
in charge and it hangs on for the start of the weekend, keeping things | :26:24. | :26:29. | |
changeable and showery. But through the weekend itself, high prdssure | :26:30. | :26:32. | |
builds from the South that should kill most of the showers off. | :26:33. | :26:39. | |
Tomorrow, some patchy rain, but temperatures around 21 Celshus in | :26:40. | :26:43. | |
Durham. Friday, most of us were showers, but again temperattres will | :26:44. | :26:52. | |
make it into the Hyde teams. By Sunday, most places should be dry | :26:53. | :26:56. | |
and bright and temperatures just edging into the low 20s. Don't write | :26:57. | :27:03. | |
some off completely just yet. Keep your pictures coming in. | :27:04. | :27:08. | |
Now for a last look at tonight's headlines. | :27:09. | :27:14. | |
The Police and Crime Commissioner for South Yorkshire vows to stay | :27:15. | :27:17. | |
in his job despite calls for him to quit over a damning report | :27:18. | :27:20. | |
And friends and family pay their respects at the | :27:21. | :27:24. | |
funeral of a Newcastle Univdrsity medical student murdered in Borneo. | :27:25. | :27:32. | |
That is it from your team tonight. I will be back tomorrow. `` bd back | :27:33. | :27:39. | |

SHRILL WHISTLE I promise not to | :27:57. | :27:59. | |
take off all my clothes. I'm going up in the world, babes, | :28:00. | :28:02. | |
and from today, one can't sack someone | :28:03. | :28:05. | |

a lesson, Churchy. Where's your shoe? It's in the car. | :28:12. | :28:16. | |
I'll get it later. Big School returns for a new term. | :28:17. | :28:19. | |
Oh, ha-ha-ha-ha! Old friends John Thomson | :28:20. | :28:26. | |
and Simon Day are swapping comedy for Argentina | :28:27. | :28:29. | |
and the gaucho life... I AM going to moisturise. | :28:30. | :28:31. | |
It will be secret. ..where men are men, | :28:32. | :28:34. | |
and the cows aren't laughing. You won't see gauchos sitting down | :28:35. | :28:36. | |
watching... | :28:37. | :28:41. |
