Hello, welcome to Friday's Look North. | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
Tonight: as campaigners prepare to march between hospitals tnder | :00:07. | :00:08. | |
There are claims the NHS here could be over budget | :00:09. | :00:14. | |
Also tonight: The postcode lottery for cannabis convictions. | :00:15. | :00:19. | |
One force says it's no longdr pursuing small-time users. | :00:20. | :00:21. | |
The police do not arrest evdry drunk. We could not rest evdryone | :00:22. | :00:34. | |
who is smoking cannabis. It doesn't mean we are condoning cannabis use | :00:35. | :00:36. | |
or drunkenness, absolutely not. Why horse owners have becomd | :00:37. | :00:39. | |
the target of thieves in ond And on the mend, the K9 | :00:40. | :00:43. | |

Newcastle make it five wins in row? And at the bottom of | :00:48. | :00:51. | |
the Premier League, can Moyds and Middlesbrough relieve some | :00:52. | :00:53. | |
pressure with a capital Within five years the NHS | :00:54. | :00:55. | |
across the North East and Ctmbria could be over budget by mord | :00:56. | :01:17. | |
than ?1 billion if nothing And tomorrow, a group of calpaigners | :01:18. | :01:19. | |
will begin a march between hospitals in County Durham and Teesside | :01:20. | :01:27. | |
to draw attention to what they claim are plans to cut | :01:28. | :01:30. | |
services as a result. NHS bosses in the region adlit | :01:31. | :01:32. | |
they're having to make efficiency savings, but argue they'll `lso | :01:33. | :01:34. | |
deliver better care for pathents by changing how, and from where | :01:35. | :01:37. | |
services are delivered. Jo and other campaigners have become | :01:38. | :01:39. | |
so concerned about what might happen to the service where they lhve | :01:40. | :01:53. | |
they're marching from hospital All services in our NHS footprint | :01:54. | :01:56. | |
area, which is the area that we re We know we could end up with only | :01:57. | :02:00. | |
one A in this area. What Jo and other campaigners | :02:01. | :02:07. | |
are worried about are what's known as Sustainability and Transformation | :02:08. | :02:09. | |
Plans. These have been drawn up | :02:10. | :02:12. | |
for each health region, or "footprint", across the country, | :02:13. | :02:14. | |
and have now been In the North East and Cumbrha, | :02:15. | :02:17. | |
draft plans and other documdnts this programme has seen say the NHS | :02:18. | :02:26. | |
here will be more than ?1 bhllion over budget by 2021 if it doesn t | :02:27. | :02:29. | |
make efficiency savings and change On Teesside this might mean | :02:30. | :02:32. | |
the downgrading of A units at either or both North Tees | :02:33. | :02:38. | |
Hospital in Stockton, or here And across the wider Teesside | :02:39. | :02:42. | |
area, other services We asked those behind the NHS | :02:43. | :02:52. | |
Sustainability and Transforlation plans for Durham and Teesside | :02:53. | :02:55. | |
for an interview. And the Health Secretary sahd this | :02:56. | :02:57. | |
week that a more efficient heath What I don't accept is that in order | :02:58. | :03:32. | |
to make those efficiency savings you have to make changes th`t will | :03:33. | :03:39. | |
impact negatively on patient care. Well, a short time ago | :03:40. | :03:46. | |
I asked Fergus what critics The governor pledged to spend an | :03:47. | :04:01. | |
extra baked billion pounds on the NHS by Twenty20 at the last election | :04:02. | :04:05. | |
which means that if the NHS keep spending at the current ratd will | :04:06. | :04:08. | |
exceed its budget by about ?22 billion, more than a billion of that | :04:09. | :04:12. | |
from this region. It is happening for fried arrow and freedoms | :04:13. | :04:16. | |
including rising demand and an ageing population. -- a varhety of | :04:17. | :04:24. | |
reasons. The government says the NHS must make efficiency savings and | :04:25. | :04:28. | |
change the way they care for patients. The sustainabilitx and | :04:29. | :04:32. | |
transformation plans are all part of the mix and part of how it light be | :04:33. | :04:37. | |
done. We heard that means dhfficult and unpopular choices are h`ving to | :04:38. | :04:40. | |
be made about health servicds and who gets what and from wherd. The | :04:41. | :04:45. | |
Labour Party disputes the idea that the scale of savings being demanded | :04:46. | :04:51. | |
from the NHS can be deliverdd without adversely affecting | :04:52. | :04:56. | |
patients. This will have massive impact in my area. The north-east is | :04:57. | :05:00. | |
one of the areas in the country with the lowest life expectancy `nd the | :05:01. | :05:05. | |
poorest health and to cut, these are not savings or efficiencies, these | :05:06. | :05:09. | |
are cuts to the NHS budget `t a time when an ageing population whth her | :05:10. | :05:13. | |
complex health needs means we need more spent on the NHS in thd | :05:14. | :05:18. | |
north-east. It will have a devastating blow. Strong words from | :05:19. | :05:21. | |
labour there but the governlent continues to insist it has protected | :05:22. | :05:26. | |
the NHS budget while other `reas of NHS spending have been cut back | :05:27. | :05:30. | |
And you can see more on this, on Sunday Politics this | :05:31. | :05:33. | |
Sunday morning at 11.00am, here on BBC One. | :05:34. | :05:38. | |
An inquest's ruled a decision to terminate a prisoner's hospital | :05:39. | :05:43. | |
visits to see her new-born baby probably contributed to her death. | :05:44. | :05:56. | |
33-year-old Michelle Barnes from Cumbria was found hangdd | :05:57. | :05:58. | |
in her cell at Low Newton Prison in Durham last December. | :05:59. | :06:00. | |
She had wanted to keep her child in jail with her, but Cumbrha Social | :06:01. | :06:04. | |
Services decided it was in the best interests for the baby to bd | :06:05. | :06:07. | |
Our reporter Stuart Whincup's been at the inquest in Crook tod`y | :06:08. | :06:11. | |
So Stuart, give us the background to the case. | :06:12. | :06:14. | |
Well, back in June 2015 Michelle Barnes was sent to prison for two | :06:15. | :06:18. | |
years for drugs offences. At the time she was pregnant and w`nting to | :06:19. | :06:20. | |
be transferred to another prison with a mother and baby unit and she | :06:21. | :06:23. | |
wanted to take care of the child. Cumbria social services dechded it | :06:24. | :06:26. | |
was in the best interests of that child when it was born that it | :06:27. | :06:29. | |
should be taken into care. She was told this by a social worker and she | :06:30. | :06:34. | |
replied that if they take mx baby I will go to. Last December she was | :06:35. | :06:40. | |
found hanged in her prison cell The coroner had great concerns about | :06:41. | :06:45. | |
the treatment of Michelle B`rnes? Yes, he said he had rarely had so | :06:46. | :06:48. | |
many major concerns about so many issues. He said clearly the prison | :06:49. | :06:53. | |
had no clear plan in place of what they would do when she was | :06:54. | :06:59. | |
discharged from hospital. Hdr birthing plan was described as | :07:00. | :07:02. | |
confusing and inadequate and simply not fit for purpose. Some whtnesses | :07:03. | :07:06. | |
had told the inquest that she would be able to visit her baby in the | :07:07. | :07:09. | |
hospital but other witnesses said she would have no chance wh`tsoever | :07:10. | :07:13. | |
of visiting her baby. There were clear concerns about the birthing | :07:14. | :07:17. | |
plan for pregnant women at the prison and he said he felt those | :07:18. | :07:22. | |
needed to be addressed to present -- prevent future fatalities. | :07:23. | :07:26. | |
A man's been charged with the murder of Jodie Wilkinson. | :07:27. | :07:29. | |
The 27-year-old was stabbed in Stanhope Street, | :07:30. | :07:30. | |
David Waterston, who's 43 and of Hamilton Place | :07:31. | :07:36. | |
in the city, will appear at Magistrates Court tomorrow. | :07:37. | :07:42. | |
Eight other people arrested in connection with the investigation | :07:43. | :07:47. | |
A man's died after falling from a height on board one | :07:48. | :07:58. | |
of the cargo ships anchored off the coast of Tynemouth. | :07:59. | :08:00. | |
The seaman from Ukraine was working on board the 590 | :08:01. | :08:02. | |
The ship is one of three whhch have been there since July. | :08:03. | :08:06. | |
The vessel has been taken into the Port of Tyne while police | :08:07. | :08:09. | |
Two men have been arrested on suspicion of causing anilal | :08:10. | :08:13. | |
cruelty after a dog was found with severe injuries | :08:14. | :08:15. | |
The men are aged 60 and 59 and are from the Redcar are`. | :08:16. | :08:19. | |
Police say they'll be interviewed by the RSPCA officer | :08:20. | :08:21. | |
Planners in Copeland are recommending approval | :08:22. | :08:24. | |
for a ?300 million pipeline to supply water to west Cumbria | :08:25. | :08:26. | |
United Utilities needs to fhnd an alternative to its current | :08:27. | :08:32. | |
The pipe also needs the support of Allerdale council and thd Lake | :08:33. | :08:39. | |
A postcode lottery, that's how cannabis users are describing | :08:40. | :08:45. | |
the way the law is enforced in the North. | :08:46. | :08:52. | |
Durham Police are no longer actively pursuing | :08:53. | :08:53. | |
Police and Crime Commissiondr Ron Hogg has called | :08:54. | :08:57. | |
But in tonight's Inside Out, opponents say the law shouldn't | :08:58. | :09:01. | |
change and that Mr Hogg is wrong, as Chris Jackson explains. | :09:02. | :09:11. | |
Trevor Coleman prepares to face the day, by rolling a joint. First thing | :09:12. | :09:19. | |
is always the worst, pain shooting down my back and write down my | :09:20. | :09:24. | |
thigh. I want to cry at timds. If I had any air left I would te`r it | :09:25. | :09:29. | |
out. Trevor was a cable installer by back problems and depression meant | :09:30. | :09:33. | |
he had to give up work. Aftdr taking cannabis oil on a piece of bread and | :09:34. | :09:37. | |
smoking a joint, he claims the virtual transformation. There you | :09:38. | :09:43. | |
go. I can move around quite freely and happily. I can still fedl it, | :09:44. | :09:48. | |
don't get it wrong, there w`s tension to my waist and back. The | :09:49. | :09:52. | |
law says possessing more cannabis without a licence is illegal but for | :09:53. | :09:57. | |
more than a year Durham Polhce have been saying they will not go after | :09:58. | :10:01. | |
small-time personal users who break the law. Data released to the BBC | :10:02. | :10:05. | |
under the Freedom of Inform`tion Act shows that under the last four years | :10:06. | :10:09. | |
charges for cannabis possession in Durham fell by 32%. Cautions fell by | :10:10. | :10:18. | |
66%. Dorrans police and Crile Commissioners, Ron Hogg, has even | :10:19. | :10:21. | |
called for medicinal use to be legalised. Opponents say he should | :10:22. | :10:25. | |
shut up. I think he should shut up, yes, if no one is listening to him. | :10:26. | :10:30. | |
He represents all of the people in Durham and not all of those people | :10:31. | :10:34. | |
will want cannabis normalisdd and legalised. I have critics, H | :10:35. | :10:38. | |
understand that, but that is not to say I should be silent. I rdpresent | :10:39. | :10:43. | |
the views of many people in our communities and I have had no | :10:44. | :10:46. | |
adverse reaction from members of our community. Even cannabis usdrs say | :10:47. | :10:53. | |
the present situation is untenable. Just a joint in your hand c`n result | :10:54. | :10:57. | |
in a fine or caution or it could result in nothing just depending on | :10:58. | :11:03. | |
the area you live in and th`t police force that police officer that stops | :11:04. | :11:09. | |
you. Some drugs users say you have left them in limbo now? How many | :11:10. | :11:14. | |
drugs are rest on a Friday `nd Saturday night, the police cannot | :11:15. | :11:18. | |
arrest every drunk and we c`nnot arrest everyone who smokes cannabis. | :11:19. | :11:21. | |
Does that mean we are condoning cannabis and drunkenness? Absolutely | :11:22. | :11:27. | |
not. If the government says it has no plans to legalise medicinal use | :11:28. | :11:28. | |
of raw cannabis. Do you think Ron Hogg should shut | :11:29. | :11:30. | |
up, or does he have a point? Watch Inside Out tonight | :11:31. | :11:34. | |
at 7.30pm on BBC One. Ten months after it was wrecked | :11:35. | :12:03. | |
by Storm Desmond, a major (oov? play area in Carlisle | :12:04. | :12:06. | |
re-opened to the city's Two hundred thousand pounds has | :12:07. | :12:09. | |
been spent restoring the Bitts Park playground, | :12:10. | :12:12. | |
next to the castle, Some of it's been designed to be | :12:13. | :12:13. | |
used by children with disabhlities. This is an important playground and | :12:14. | :12:20. | |
people have been asking us when we would get it reopened. We w`nted to | :12:21. | :12:21. | |
get it right. For now, though, you're | :12:22. | :12:22. | |
watching Look North, Dawn will be here to preview | :12:23. | :12:24. | |
the weekend football. Plus: We join tourists | :12:25. | :12:27. | |
on the Farne Islands, hoping to catch a glimpse | :12:28. | :12:29. | |
of the first seal pups of the year. The weather is looking largdly | :12:30. | :12:34. | |
settled this weekend with plenty of dry and fine weather. Join le later | :12:35. | :12:37. | |
in the programme for the full forecast. | :12:38. | :12:38. | |
The police have warned horsd owners to mark their equipment, | :12:39. | :12:40. | |
after a spate of raids targdting North Yorkshire stables | :12:41. | :12:43. | |
Over the last few weeks a wdalth of expensive equestrian | :12:44. | :12:47. | |
items have been stolen, particularly in the Harrogate area. | :12:48. | :12:53. | |
20 horse owners at a single yard were left devastated after dvery one | :12:54. | :12:56. | |
Jama and 19 other horse owndrs at this yard near Harrogate each lost | :12:57. | :13:11. | |
thousands of pounds worth of equipment on one night, one of a | :13:12. | :13:16. | |
series of break-ins recentlx crops North Yorkshire. There are 20 of us | :13:17. | :13:19. | |
that this yard on we all received a phone call to say that the xard had | :13:20. | :13:23. | |
been absolutely ransacked. We came in to find out what had been taken | :13:24. | :13:27. | |
and, as you can see, there hs absolutely nothing left in the air. | :13:28. | :13:31. | |
They have ripped out the Saddlebacks on the wall. Each of us compete in a | :13:32. | :13:36. | |
different discipline so there were numerous items per person t`ken we | :13:37. | :13:45. | |
think in excess of ?30,000 hn total. Physically it was horrendous and | :13:46. | :13:48. | |
emotionally I was crying in the middle of a field at 6am. It is just | :13:49. | :13:51. | |
something that I would want anyone with authors not to go throtgh. | :13:52. | :13:58. | |
Horses are expensive enough as they are and it is just another dxpense | :13:59. | :14:02. | |
to deal with and is not needed. People work hard to have horses We | :14:03. | :14:09. | |
have had delivery in yards, large and small, having tax stolen and | :14:10. | :14:13. | |
here we had 20 victims of crime who each had a lot of items takdn and it | :14:14. | :14:18. | |
had a devastating effect so we are encouraging all the North Yorkshire | :14:19. | :14:22. | |
residents to be extra vigil`nt and report suspicious activity `nd we | :14:23. | :14:25. | |
are encouraging everyone to get their tack mark. The police will be | :14:26. | :14:31. | |
offering free tax marking sdssions in Harrogate, Richmond and Xork | :14:32. | :14:38. | |
between now and Christmas. Something a bit more uplifthng now. | :14:39. | :14:39. | |
A baby boom is underway in Northumberland, and it | :14:40. | :14:41. | |
The pupping season for grey seals on the Farne Islands lasts | :14:42. | :14:45. | |
from October until December, and this year there could bd | :14:46. | :14:48. | |
The National Trust wardens `ttempt to find them all, as they cdnsus | :14:49. | :14:52. | |
Autumn on the Farne Islands means pupping season for one | :14:53. | :15:02. | |
of the biggest Grey Seal colonies in the country. | :15:03. | :15:09. | |
The seals will start popping usually late September we see one or two but | :15:10. | :15:19. | |
it really gets going in Novdmber so our earliest time is early `nd | :15:20. | :15:26. | |
mid-November, and a pup mainly in the outer group so we had over a | :15:27. | :15:31. | |
thousand pups born here last year on the main islands that the sdals use. | :15:32. | :15:37. | |
Of course most people come to the final islands in the summer when | :15:38. | :15:41. | |
they are teeming with sea bhrds but all the birds have gone now and the | :15:42. | :15:44. | |
islands are devoted to the seals. The rages are out between now and | :15:45. | :15:50. | |
December, counting them. Thdre could be up to 2000 grey seal pups born on | :15:51. | :15:55. | |
the Farne Islands this year. They are born with this fluffy white coat | :15:56. | :15:59. | |
on and they have that for a region of 21 days and they lose th`t coat | :16:00. | :16:03. | |
as the mother stops feeding them. They spend another couple of weeks | :16:04. | :16:06. | |
out on the land before they eventually feel the need to go off | :16:07. | :16:08. | |
to see and start hunting. The newborn pups don't | :16:09. | :16:10. | |
keep their white coats for long The wardens spray them with harmless | :16:11. | :16:13. | |
dye to keep a count of the new Every four days a different colour | :16:14. | :16:16. | |
is used so the wardens can keep The total number of pups born so far | :16:17. | :16:24. | |
this autumn stands at 36, most of whom have a big orange | :16:25. | :16:28. | |
blotch on their fluffy whitd coats. Their protective mothers give birth | :16:29. | :16:31. | |
in the autumn because they need to be at maximum weight after spending | :16:32. | :16:34. | |
the summer fattening up. They lose 60 kilograms of around | :16:35. | :16:46. | |
three weeks when they are fdeding their pups, it is another lot of | :16:47. | :16:50. | |
weight so they have to put the weight on in the peak fish season | :16:51. | :16:53. | |
during the summer which is when they get most of their food. Seals are | :16:54. | :16:57. | |
very good at surviving in cold weather as well and in the summer | :16:58. | :17:00. | |
there is quite a risk that the pups could overheat because it would be | :17:01. | :17:02. | |
too warm for them. The Northumberland coast | :17:03. | :17:03. | |
in winter is rarely too warl. And this winter there could be | :17:04. | :17:05. | |
record numbers of young seals born. Our Premier League clubs | :17:06. | :17:15. | |
are in the capital tomorrow. Middlesbrough take on Arsen`l just | :17:16. | :17:20. | |
days after the Gunners scordd six Bottom club Sunderland, | :17:21. | :17:23. | |
on paper at least, face a more winnable fixture at fellow | :17:24. | :17:30. | |
strugglers West Ham, whose only victory | :17:31. | :17:32. | |
at their new home was But, although the injury situation's | :17:33. | :17:34. | |
easing for Black Cats boss David Moyes, the pressure | :17:35. | :17:38. | |
is rising. While one national newspaper | :17:39. | :17:44. | |
was speculating about a mooted takeover of the club | :17:45. | :17:46. | |
during the summer, the mess`ge coming out of the Sunderland | :17:47. | :17:48. | |
boardroom this week was one According to its new chief | :17:49. | :17:50. | |
executive, the Black Cats nded to embrace their regional roots | :17:51. | :17:54. | |
be more strategic with their buying and selling of players, | :17:55. | :17:57. | |
and end the cycle of chop We have a football club herd that | :17:58. | :18:12. | |
has to be very synonymous whth its north-east identity. The fans, I | :18:13. | :18:16. | |
think, one that from a football club and without being disparaging to | :18:17. | :18:19. | |
anything that has gone before I think it has probably lost hts | :18:20. | :18:23. | |
identity and tried at somethmes to be a club that it is not. Therefore | :18:24. | :18:29. | |
it is very much a case of ldt's just do the basics correct, let's build | :18:30. | :18:32. | |
and then take a more longer term approach. | :18:33. | :18:34. | |
Of course, patience can wear thin among supporters, even thosd | :18:35. | :18:36. | |
sympathetic to a long-term plan especially when the club's once | :18:37. | :18:38. | |
again winless after eight g`mes the fifth-worst start by anx team | :18:39. | :18:41. | |
I think the bigger pressure is from you boys, the questions that you are | :18:42. | :18:50. | |
asking, that is probably more where the pressure comes from. Thd | :18:51. | :18:54. | |
supporters are excellent, they understand we have been through a | :18:55. | :18:57. | |
barrel with the managers and they are going to have to get a bit of | :18:58. | :19:01. | |
stability. Sometimes it is the media that are not so keen on hearing that | :19:02. | :19:02. | |
word. Tomorrow Moyes takes his side | :19:03. | :19:04. | |
to the former Olympic Staditm, a new home that West Ham | :19:05. | :19:06. | |
are struggling to adapt to. Middlesbrough boss Aitor Karanka | :19:07. | :19:09. | |
managed a draw there but Boro have a tougher ask in the c`pital | :19:10. | :19:11. | |
when they take on joint Premier League leaders, | :19:12. | :19:14. | |
Arsenal, who knocked them ott We do not care if they won xesterday | :19:15. | :19:23. | |
6-0 the previous game. We know they have experience and they have an | :19:24. | :19:28. | |
amazing squad and amazing players and once again we have been working | :19:29. | :19:34. | |
for two and a half years to play this kind of games. The plaxers are | :19:35. | :19:41. | |
really good their attitude for a few moments on the games have bden | :19:42. | :19:45. | |
really amazing. We can trust ourselves in my work. | :19:46. | :19:48. | |
The Spaniard has had to defdnd himself against accusations that | :19:49. | :19:50. | |
he's too negative and too inflexible tactically, | :19:51. | :19:52. | |
only bringing on a second striker against Watford last Sunday | :19:53. | :19:54. | |
in the dying minutes of another home defeat. | :19:55. | :19:56. | |
Perhaps one of our clubs can spring a surprise this weekend. | :19:57. | :19:59. | |
Newcastle United go into tolorrow's game at St James Park sitting top | :20:00. | :20:03. | |
of the Championship for the first time this season. | :20:04. | :20:05. | |
Ipswich boss and former Sunderland Manager Mick McC`rthy | :20:06. | :20:11. | |
is out to stop them and won't make it easy, but the Magpies will feel | :20:12. | :20:15. | |
confident, with striker Dwight Gayle scoring for fun! | :20:16. | :20:25. | |
Dwight Gayle 's brace against Barnsley has taken his tallx to 11 | :20:26. | :20:30. | |
goals in as many games. The striker may be on fire, so to speak, but | :20:31. | :20:36. | |
Rafer Benitez does not want a single out for prize. -- praise. Wd score | :20:37. | :20:41. | |
goals we are at the top of the table because the team creates ch`nces and | :20:42. | :20:45. | |
he takes the chances. He can score goals any time on any ball they put | :20:46. | :20:50. | |
there. He can score and the team play with more confidence, for sure. | :20:51. | :20:54. | |
If Newcastle 's defence has improved this season their midfielder can | :20:55. | :20:59. | |
take a lot of the credit who is happy to play where ever Benitez | :21:00. | :21:03. | |
wants. It is more my style, how this coach plays and the movements that | :21:04. | :21:10. | |
he wants the players to makd is more suitable for me but I am also still | :21:11. | :21:17. | |
a midfielder. I won't forget that position, of course, and if I get a | :21:18. | :21:21. | |
chance to play there I will do my best of course but at the moment I | :21:22. | :21:24. | |
am playing right back and I am enjoying it. Anita is clearly one of | :21:25. | :21:29. | |
the managers go to players but is it the first name on the team sheet? | :21:30. | :21:34. | |
Normally, yes because he is the right full-back because I start with | :21:35. | :21:37. | |
the keeper and then I put the right full-back. But to be fair hd is | :21:38. | :21:40. | |
someone that I appreciate bdcause he is a really good profession`l and | :21:41. | :21:42. | |
everybody loves him. In League Two, third-placed | :21:43. | :21:43. | |
Carlisle United will make it 14 games unbeaten and set a new club | :21:44. | :21:45. | |
record if they can win There'll be live match commdntary | :21:46. | :21:48. | |
on BBC Radio Cumbria. You can hear Hartlepool's g`me | :21:49. | :21:52. | |
against third bottom Leyton Orient And good luck to Berwick Rangers | :21:53. | :21:55. | |
in their Borders derby tomorrow They host Hawick Royal Albert | :21:56. | :22:00. | |
in the Scottish Cup. And it's your last chance | :22:01. | :22:06. | |
to nominate someone Open to all sporting voluntders | :22:07. | :22:08. | |

Sunday, October 23rd. Now, just before the weather, | :22:17. | :22:37. | |
a heartwarming story It's about Scrappy the Firedog, | :22:38. | :22:39. | |
who can sniff out clues to discover Yes, his skills are in such high | :22:40. | :22:43. | |
demand, recently a helicoptdr was put on standby to fly hhm | :22:44. | :22:47. | |
across the country. But unfortunately earlier this | :22:48. | :22:49. | |
week he had an accident, and he's ended up in | :22:50. | :22:52. | |
an animal hospital. Sent in after the fire | :22:53. | :22:54. | |
has cooled down, he's Scrappy is so good at what he does | :22:55. | :23:04. | |
people have gone to prison But he broke a leg, giving | :23:05. | :23:10. | |
a demonstration of his skills at Teesside University and dnded | :23:11. | :23:15. | |
up at this specialist We were doing a training session on | :23:16. | :23:31. | |
a flat lawn and he dashed off to go and get the ball and unforttnately | :23:32. | :23:35. | |
his blessed -- left leg went into a little divot and he twisted his leg. | :23:36. | :23:38. | |
The staff carried out quite a big operation to get Scrappy | :23:39. | :23:41. | |
It is obviously important that he takes things quite steady over the | :23:42. | :23:48. | |
next few weeks but as long `s when we see him back in six weeks for | :23:49. | :23:52. | |
some x-rays everything is looking good and he gradually is | :23:53. | :23:55. | |
rehabilitated and takes things nice and steady over the following couple | :23:56. | :23:58. | |
of months, there is every chance he will go on to make an excellent | :23:59. | :23:59. | |
recovery. The fire service are hoping he'll | :24:00. | :24:00. | |
be returning to active He is a detective, he is thd | :24:01. | :24:08. | |
smallest but the biggest melber of our team in terms of fire | :24:09. | :24:12. | |
investigation. We use him qtite a bit in fire scenes and he c`n get | :24:13. | :24:16. | |
through a house search that would take us three days and about ?1 ,000 | :24:17. | :24:23. | |
worth of cost to the taxpaydr, he can do it in about ten minutes. | :24:24. | :24:25. | |
He looks a happy Scrappy! Get well soon, Scrappy. Indded. Time | :24:26. | :24:42. | |
now for the weather. It is the end of October but it looks likd a | :24:43. | :24:45. | |
reasonable weekend ahead? Is not bad at all. I pressure is in | :24:46. | :24:49. | |
charge this week and said things are looking largely settled with a few | :24:50. | :24:53. | |
caveats to that which I will explain in a moment. This picture from | :24:54. | :24:57. | |
Tynemouth shows the sun pokhng through the clouds. Thank you to | :24:58. | :25:02. | |
Philip. This weekend it is fairly settled with plenty of dry `nd fine | :25:03. | :25:06. | |
bright weather but with an dasterly breeze we are going to see ` few | :25:07. | :25:10. | |
showers pushed in along the north-east coast. Some of the | :25:11. | :25:13. | |
showers have been around thhs afternoon and they will continue on | :25:14. | :25:16. | |
through the night but by and large we are looking at a dry night. | :25:17. | :25:21. | |
Plenty of clear skies as well. The clearest skies across part of | :25:22. | :25:25. | |
Cumbria, and it is here where the temperatures will drop the lost so | :25:26. | :25:28. | |
we are looking at lows of four or 5 degrees across parts of Cumbria | :25:29. | :25:31. | |
slightly milder across the north-east. It will be a chhlly | :25:32. | :25:34. | |
start tomorrow morning with patches of mist and fog and an eastdrly | :25:35. | :25:39. | |
breeze still blowing in somd showers. Most of the showers will | :25:40. | :25:44. | |
hit the coast further inland they will be fewer and further bdtween | :25:45. | :25:49. | |
with plenty of dry a bright weather. By four in the afternoon in Cumbria | :25:50. | :25:52. | |
temperatures will reach 11 or 1 with a chance of a shower across the | :25:53. | :25:57. | |
tops of the fells. Coming across to the north-east there is an dasterly | :25:58. | :26:00. | |
breeze and the temperatures may not climb so high. Here temperatures up | :26:01. | :26:06. | |
to 11 or 12. Saturday night and Sunday has showers keep comhng in | :26:07. | :26:10. | |
along the north-east coast `nd Cumbria once again is in for | :26:11. | :26:14. | |
clearest skies and it is here where temperatures will fall the lost and | :26:15. | :26:19. | |
elsewhere it will be down to five or 6 degrees, I think. A chillx start | :26:20. | :26:22. | |
again to Sunday morning with an easterly breeze still blowing in the | :26:23. | :26:26. | |
showers but generally try and fine day with plenty of spells of | :26:27. | :26:29. | |
sunshine. Cumbria joined thd most of the sunshine and the north-dast say | :26:30. | :26:36. | |
the most of the showers. On Sunday afternoon the temperatures will | :26:37. | :26:39. | |
reach ten or 11 so it will still feel chilly when you factor in the | :26:40. | :26:44. | |
easterly breeze. On Sunday `nd Monday the high pressure is still in | :26:45. | :26:49. | |
charge and we are in between low-pressure systems but it looks | :26:50. | :26:52. | |
like high will bring out for a time so Monday is still going to be | :26:53. | :26:57. | |
fairly dry and settled. We lose the showers on the whole four Monday so | :26:58. | :27:01. | |
plenty of dry and fine weather and the temperatures will once `gain | :27:02. | :27:07. | |
reached ten or 11 degrees. To sum up again on Saturday it is dry and fine | :27:08. | :27:10. | |
and there will be showers whth temperatures around 11 or 12. | :27:11. | :27:14. | |
Thank you very much. That is it Unless you are on the late shift, | :27:15. | :27:19. | |
the weekend starts here. We will see what Monday. Goodbye. | :27:20. | :27:29. |
