And, a piece of silverware for one of our rugby league clubs already, | :00:42. | :00:48. | |
but what will happen when the season proper starts? | :00:49. | :01:06. | |
First tonight, a teenager from Tyneside who dressed up | :01:07. | :01:08. | |
as a clown and brandished an axe at a pregnant woman has been | :01:09. | :01:11. | |
sentenced to six months at a young offenders' institution. | :01:12. | :01:13. | |
Newcastle Crown Court heard that it happened during the "killer | :01:14. | :01:15. | |
clown craze" last year, when police across the UK received | :01:16. | :01:18. | |
hundreds of complaints about people dressing up and frightening members | :01:19. | :01:20. | |
Mark Mcalindon is live for us at the court now. | :01:21. | :01:28. | |
Yes, Carol, this was a short lived by terrifying period during late | :01:29. | :01:39. | |
summer and autumn last year when a number of incidents were reported | :01:40. | :01:42. | |
across the country of people donning clown masks and jumping out at | :01:43. | :01:46. | |
others in order to terrify them. A number in our region which you will | :01:47. | :01:50. | |
probably remember. It left young children terrified and afraid to go | :01:51. | :01:55. | |
out. In some cases, weapons were brandished, the craze was blamed on | :01:56. | :01:59. | |
an epidemic of this type in America being reported across the Atlantic. | :02:00. | :02:06. | |
This was the case of the young man by the name of Michael March from | :02:07. | :02:08. | |
Gateshead. He decided he would take part in this grace after having been | :02:09. | :02:12. | |
chased by a man dressed as a clown himself -- in this craze. He decided | :02:13. | :02:15. | |
when he went on to the streets of South Shields the night before | :02:16. | :02:18. | |
Halloween last year he would take an axe and look for people to scare. In | :02:19. | :02:23. | |
the car park of a local pub he and a friend noticed a couple, they jumped | :02:24. | :02:27. | |
out of them and banged the axe on the ground. The woman was 22 weeks | :02:28. | :02:33. | |
pregnant at the time. The police were called, Mr Marsh was arrested | :02:34. | :02:37. | |
and charged with possession of a bladed article which took him to | :02:38. | :02:41. | |
court today. He certainly wasn't laughing today. The judge said this | :02:42. | :02:45. | |
offence was so serious that only custody would do, and he sent him to | :02:46. | :02:49. | |
a Young offenders Institute for six months. What else did the judge say | :02:50. | :02:54. | |
to Michael March? They had listened to the mitigation made on his behalf | :02:55. | :03:05. | |
that he had been 17 at the time of the offence and is now 18 and he had | :03:06. | :03:09. | |
never been in trouble before. But he said, carrying a real axe and | :03:10. | :03:11. | |
threatening innocent people in the street goes way beyond what is | :03:12. | :03:13. | |
acceptable at any time of the year. The young woman was 22 weeks | :03:14. | :03:15. | |
pregnant and by definition vulnerable. Whatever enjoyment you | :03:16. | :03:17. | |
were getting, they would never have regarded this as a joke, nor would | :03:18. | :03:22. | |
anybody else. Tonight, Michael March is beginning a six-month sentence. | :03:23. | :03:27. | |
The former garden of a loner jailed for life for planning a mass murder | :03:28. | :03:30. | |
at his former college is being searched by bomb | :03:31. | :03:32. | |
Officers are investigating a report that two potentially harmful items | :03:33. | :03:39. | |
may have been buried in the garden where Liam Lyburd used to live | :03:40. | :03:42. | |
Sharuna Sagar has just sent us this report from the scene. | :03:43. | :03:53. | |
Specialist officers arrived here at Hamilton Crescent in the West End of | :03:54. | :03:58. | |
Newcastle at around 4pm this afternoon. They were acting on a | :03:59. | :04:02. | |
tip-off and they have been digging up the garden and using metal | :04:03. | :04:06. | |
detectors at an address he just behind me behind this cordon. It is | :04:07. | :04:10. | |
understood that the address is the former home of Liam Lyburd, who was | :04:11. | :04:17. | |
jailed in 2015 for plotting a massacre at Newcastle College for | :04:18. | :04:21. | |
making pipe bombs and ownership of explosive devices. The current | :04:22. | :04:25. | |
occupant of that address has been moved temporarily while the search | :04:26. | :04:28. | |
continues, and it's thought the search might continue throughout the | :04:29. | :04:35. | |
night and possibly morning. -- possibly tomorrow morning. | :04:36. | :04:39. | |
They've been described as a popular and devoted couple. | :04:40. | :04:42. | |
Tonight though, their sudden deaths on a farm in North | :04:43. | :04:44. | |
The couple, named locally as Andrew and Jenny Robinson, | :04:45. | :04:47. | |
ran a turkey farm in the village of Dalton near Thirsk. | :04:48. | :04:50. | |
Phil Connell is live in Thirsk for us tonight. | :04:51. | :04:52. | |
Well, behind me, Carol, is idle Beck farm, a turkey farm four all five | :04:53. | :05:05. | |
miles from first. It is here where this couple had worked and lived. We | :05:06. | :05:10. | |
know their bodies were found inside the property last Wednesday. But | :05:11. | :05:13. | |
details of this have only just emerged. We believe that they were | :05:14. | :05:18. | |
found in two separate rooms of this property, and tonight police have | :05:19. | :05:21. | |
described their deaths as unexplained. They have been telling | :05:22. | :05:25. | |
us it could still be several more weeks before they know exactly why | :05:26. | :05:26. | |
this happened. And what more can you tell | :05:27. | :05:28. | |
us about the couple? Well, there has been no formal | :05:29. | :05:35. | |
identification as yet, but locally we know they have been named as | :05:36. | :05:40. | |
Andrew and Jenny Robinson, who were both in their early 50s. There are | :05:41. | :05:44. | |
reports that Mrs Robinson had recently been seriously ill. But in | :05:45. | :05:48. | |
the village of Dalton just down the road from here they have today been | :05:49. | :05:52. | |
described as a devoted couple who were well liked and well-known. He | :05:53. | :06:00. | |
used to run the youth club years ago when my boys were the full, they've | :06:01. | :06:04. | |
grown up now, and, yeah, he was part of the village -- when they were | :06:05. | :06:09. | |
little. I'll miss them. You don't know what's happened. They were a | :06:10. | :06:12. | |
lovely couple, loved by everyone and liked by everyone in the village. | :06:13. | :06:18. | |
Happy and chatting, just really well liked, everybody knew them. It is a | :06:19. | :06:24. | |
real shock? Definitely. I just feel for, you know, their daughter and | :06:25. | :06:25. | |
their son. So where does the police | :06:26. | :06:28. | |
investigation go from here? Well, forensic teams have already | :06:29. | :06:38. | |
been out this property. And it's expected that police searches will | :06:39. | :06:43. | |
continue here as well. We know that the Health and Safety Executive have | :06:44. | :06:46. | |
been here as well, surging, looking at the gas at the property. But that | :06:47. | :06:51. | |
seems to have been working properly. Tonight, in mystery here as the | :06:52. | :06:53. | |
investigation continues. Thanks. Police sealed off a street | :06:54. | :06:56. | |
in South Shields earlier today after reports that an man | :06:57. | :07:02. | |
was making threats. The operation was centered | :07:03. | :07:03. | |
on a house on Moreland Road. Fire and ambulance crews were also | :07:04. | :07:11. | |
sent out to the property. The negotiator spoke to a man who was | :07:12. | :07:14. | |
arrested and escorted from the premises. Officers have recovered | :07:15. | :07:18. | |
what they believe to be a loaded crossbow from the house. | :07:19. | :07:21. | |
A court has heard how a wealthy businessman abused a boy | :07:22. | :07:24. | |
Colin Gregg, from Gosforth in Newcastle, denies a string | :07:25. | :07:27. | |
of sexual assaults on boys over three decades. | :07:28. | :07:29. | |
Today, a trial heard from a man who claims Gregg attacked him | :07:30. | :07:32. | |
Peter Harris reports from Leeds Crown Court. | :07:33. | :07:43. | |
Today, Colin Gregg faced in court one of those who said the | :07:44. | :07:48. | |
businessman sexually assaulted him as a boy. He is now a pensioner. He | :07:49. | :07:54. | |
says in 1967 when he was 15 and a pupil at a school in County Durham, | :07:55. | :07:59. | |
Colin Baker invited him to help build an adventure playground in | :08:00. | :08:02. | |
Northumberland during the summer holidays -- Colin Gregg. Whilst | :08:03. | :08:06. | |
there, he says Mr Gregg asked him if he wanted to drive his car. He says | :08:07. | :08:11. | |
he was impressed by that as a teenager, he was interested in cars. | :08:12. | :08:17. | |
He recalls squeezing in front of Colin Gregg on the drivers seat | :08:18. | :08:20. | |
holding the steering wheel. He says Colin Gregg then assaulted him, and | :08:21. | :08:24. | |
he described his shock at what was happening. The witness told the | :08:25. | :08:28. | |
jury, I just jumped out of the car and ran off, and didn't speak to | :08:29. | :08:29. | |
anyone about it for many years. ... Under cross-examination, the | :08:30. | :08:49. | |
witness, who is separate to the four people Gregg is charged with | :08:50. | :08:53. | |
assaulting, denied cooking up the claim. He said Colin Gregg assaulted | :08:54. | :08:58. | |
him, no shadow of the doubt. Colin Gregg, described in court as a | :08:59. | :09:02. | |
wealthy man who helped build up the Greggs bakery chain, has also worked | :09:03. | :09:07. | |
as a teacher and a social worker. He denies nine assaults on four boys | :09:08. | :09:08. | |
and the trial continues. Health managers have | :09:09. | :09:12. | |
refused to explain why they rejected a bid to run | :09:13. | :09:14. | |
Hartlepool Hospital's The Care Fertility Group operates 15 | :09:15. | :09:16. | |
units across the country, Licensed fertility treatment | :09:17. | :09:20. | |
will now end in the town, and patients will be forced | :09:21. | :09:25. | |
to travel as far as Newcastle. Today, members of the local | :09:26. | :09:28. | |
Clinical Commissioning Group were summoned by councillors | :09:29. | :09:30. | |
to explain themselves. Here's our News Correspondent, | :09:31. | :09:32. | |
Mark Denten. This is what health managers look | :09:33. | :09:41. | |
like facing the music - they've ended licensed fertility | :09:42. | :09:45. | |
services in Hartlepool. Little Eliza wouldn't | :09:46. | :09:47. | |
be here without them. This is a product of 4.5 years of | :09:48. | :09:56. | |
kind, caring compassionate romper staff at the Department, -- from the | :09:57. | :10:03. | |
staff at the Department. I'm distraught to think that others will | :10:04. | :10:04. | |
not get that care and compassion. to councillors, members | :10:05. | :10:07. | |
of the Clinical Commissioning group I think it's deplorable that people | :10:08. | :10:16. | |
found this information out by the media. It's not acceptable in any | :10:17. | :10:23. | |
way, shape or form. We are working with the Trust to make sure that | :10:24. | :10:24. | |
happened in advance. Hartlepool Hospital's | :10:25. | :10:26. | |
fertility unit. In January last year, | :10:27. | :10:35. | |
health managers announced it was closing because of | :10:36. | :10:37. | |
staff recruitment problems. But in April, Hartlepool Council | :10:38. | :10:40. | |
went to the High Court to A judge ruled it | :10:41. | :10:43. | |
couldn't shut without It finished in July - | :10:44. | :10:49. | |
the unit would stay open the Clinical Commissioning group | :10:50. | :11:02. | |
announced no bidder had met the Care Fertility Group - | :11:03. | :11:08. | |
it runs 15 fertility clinics across Britain, | :11:09. | :11:15. | |
was already helping provide Hartlepool | :11:16. | :11:21. | |
fertility services it said So would those health managers | :11:22. | :11:23. | |
explain why..it turns out Which may have left Scarlett, | :11:24. | :11:27. | |
who's three and another Hartlepool We have just been through IVF again. | :11:28. | :11:46. | |
We have had embryology as from Care, the company wanting to take over who | :11:47. | :11:50. | |
have been denied, and it has been affected. | :11:51. | :11:52. | |
The meeting was adjourned until a later date, with both | :11:53. | :12:00. | |
the CCG and Council saying they'll take legal advice. | :12:01. | :12:02. | |
So, the Council not getting the answers they wanted. | :12:03. | :12:06. | |
Well, in a word, frustration, certainly as far as the council is | :12:07. | :12:14. | |
concerned. The chair of the committee told me after the meeting | :12:15. | :12:18. | |
that his scrutiny committee couldn't do one important thing today, which | :12:19. | :12:24. | |
is scrutinised. There are actually concerns beyond whether fertility | :12:25. | :12:28. | |
unit actually is. The wider concern from campaigners is that they fear | :12:29. | :12:32. | |
that services at Hartlepool hospital are being gradually taken away, | :12:33. | :12:37. | |
making it ripe for closure. That is utterly denied by health managers, | :12:38. | :12:41. | |
who say there is absolutely no closure agenda. Thank you, Mark. | :12:42. | :12:44. | |
Still to come: Tonight's sports news from Dawn Thewlis. | :12:45. | :12:46. | |
Romancing the stone - the mystery of the marriage | :12:47. | :12:49. | |
proposal carved in a rock on a Northumberland hillside. | :12:50. | :12:55. | |
Another mystery, what's in the weather forecast? And who has won | :12:56. | :13:01. | |
our January weather picture competition. I'll have the results | :13:02. | :13:02. | |
shortly. Now, what did you do with the toys | :13:03. | :13:05. | |
from your childhood? Are they still well-loved, | :13:06. | :13:08. | |
or gathering dust in your loft? Or perhaps they were simply | :13:09. | :13:10. | |
thrown out years ago? Well, a Cumbrian auctioneer's been | :13:11. | :13:12. | |
overwhelmed by the number of vintage Around 650 lots will be on sale | :13:13. | :13:15. | |
at Mitchell's Auction House It's only the second time a toy | :13:16. | :13:20. | |
sale's been held there since 1873. Once loved, now packed away - | :13:21. | :13:25. | |
this is a holding room for toys Some have been well played with, | :13:26. | :13:41. | |
others preserved with care. 650 lots, all ready | :13:42. | :13:46. | |
for adventures with new owners. And the auctioneer | :13:47. | :13:52. | |
has his favourites. And Steiff teddy bears | :13:53. | :13:54. | |
are particularly valuable. You can tell it's Steiff | :13:55. | :13:58. | |
because it's got that It probably dates | :13:59. | :14:01. | |
from about 1910-1920. The shape of the face, the way | :14:02. | :14:04. | |
Steiff is written on the button. Because of that, I'd probably put | :14:05. | :14:07. | |
about ?400 to ?600 on it. Down here we've got a Clinker-built | :14:08. | :14:12. | |
open launch, with a Trojan And what I like about it as well | :14:13. | :14:14. | |
is this little figure. It adds a bit of | :14:15. | :14:22. | |
character to the piece. That's it, perfect | :14:23. | :14:26. | |
for the Lake District. In terms of cost-wise, | :14:27. | :14:31. | |
do you have any idea? ?400 to ?600, but I think it should | :14:32. | :14:33. | |
make a little bit more than that. From lots worth hundreds to those | :14:34. | :14:38. | |
that'll sell for much less, there's money to be made | :14:39. | :14:40. | |
in the vintage toy market, and the attraction for sellers | :14:41. | :14:43. | |
in Cumbria seems to be growing People who think that | :14:44. | :14:46. | |
their toys are worth ?2 or ?3 could end up | :14:47. | :14:50. | |
making ?50, ?60. So that's really good, | :14:51. | :14:53. | |
seeing people bidding the toys up. It's just really exciting, | :14:54. | :14:55. | |
I think, that's the general auction sort of process, | :14:56. | :14:57. | |
it's just a really exciting sort And you can get involved | :14:58. | :15:00. | |
in the bidding at Michtell's Auction Megan Paterson, BBC | :15:01. | :15:05. | |
Look North, Cockermouth. With less than a week | :15:06. | :15:17. | |
to Valentine's Day, the Northumberland National Park | :15:18. | :15:21. | |
is looking for help to unravel Nestled 402 metres up a craggy | :15:22. | :15:23. | |
hill near Rothbury lies a marriage proposal - | :15:24. | :15:27. | |
very public, yet strangely It's been carved into a rock | :15:28. | :15:28. | |
off the beaten track, and anyone who knows | :15:29. | :15:32. | |
about the couple involved Even on the days, the boulders are | :15:33. | :15:57. | |
pierced with toothache... It digests its antipasto of spider and | :15:58. | :16:01. | |
flight... A poem by Steinman Armitage, inspired by this moody | :16:02. | :16:06. | |
place, the hills. In fact, it can only be heard here, on a phone map | :16:07. | :16:17. | |
triggered by GPS. It has been specially written to lead you to a | :16:18. | :16:22. | |
rock discovered five years ago by a park ranger. A simple proposal | :16:23. | :16:27. | |
failed industry. We don't know much about it. We have a poem written | :16:28. | :16:30. | |
about it because it's such a romantic gesture, but K and J are | :16:31. | :16:39. | |
out there somewhere, I don't know, Keith and Jane? We think it's quite | :16:40. | :16:43. | |
old, though. Handwriting is very neat. It has been here as long as a | :16:44. | :16:47. | |
lot of our staff who have worked here for years and years have been | :16:48. | :16:51. | |
here. We have asked around, of course. Lots of local people would | :16:52. | :16:56. | |
come up here, but we can't get an answer. If you know anything about | :16:57. | :16:59. | |
the proposal, the National Park would love to hear from you. And put | :17:00. | :17:04. | |
a romantic and, hopefully, to this story, started when this man | :17:05. | :17:08. | |
stumbled upon the stone. We were working, doing some part of work on | :17:09. | :17:12. | |
the rich. I came for a one. Off the path. I came upon the stone that | :17:13. | :17:17. | |
I've never seen before -- I went for a wander off the part. The | :17:18. | :17:24. | |
description of, K Will you marry me, J? I was surprised that somebody | :17:25. | :17:27. | |
would go to the lengths to actually do that. It is what it is. You say | :17:28. | :17:36. | |
you are surprised, are you not a romantic man, Ben, Mark? I'm not | :17:37. | :17:41. | |
that romantic, no! It has been known, but generally not. Whoever | :17:42. | :17:46. | |
you are all were, J, I only hope you chose a better day than today to ask | :17:47. | :17:49. | |
your big question. If you know who J or K might be | :17:50. | :17:52. | |
or were, or if you've even heard folklore about the stone, | :17:53. | :17:55. | |
please do tell us about it It might only be February, | :17:56. | :17:58. | |
but we're starting with cricket, because it's looking increasingly | :17:59. | :18:06. | |
likely that England's new captain could come | :18:07. | :18:08. | |
from our part of the world. All the speculation's been | :18:09. | :18:10. | |
about Yorkshire's Joe Root taking over from Alistair Cook, | :18:11. | :18:12. | |
who resigned as skipper on Monday. But Durham's Ben Stokes | :18:13. | :18:15. | |
shouldn't be overlooked, and the pair could be a potent | :18:16. | :18:17. | |
partnership. There's no white smoke from the home | :18:18. | :18:22. | |
of cricket yet, but England travel to the West Indies in two weeks' | :18:23. | :18:25. | |
time, so the announcement Yorkshire's Joe Root, | :18:26. | :18:28. | |
who's been vice-captain, is still favourite to take over, | :18:29. | :18:30. | |
but perhaps it's not quite Durham and ex-England captain | :18:31. | :18:33. | |
Paul Collingwood has thrown Ben Stokes' name into the hat, | :18:34. | :18:37. | |
and Alistair Cook agrees the all-rounder has a vital part | :18:38. | :18:39. | |
to play in the future. I think Ben Stokes has got a leading | :18:40. | :18:43. | |
role no doubt at some stage. I think the way he's improved | :18:44. | :18:47. | |
and matured as a cricketer, and people, you know, | :18:48. | :18:50. | |
he's one of those people who people We're very lucky there's a good | :18:51. | :18:53. | |
group of people pushing it forward. Stokes is most likely to be | :18:54. | :18:58. | |
appointed vice-captain. And, not surprisingly, | :18:59. | :19:01. | |
Yorkshire's Director of Cricket is backing his own man | :19:02. | :19:03. | |
for the top job. Personally, I can't see | :19:04. | :19:05. | |
beyond anyone else, I'll be honest. It is a big job, but, you know, | :19:06. | :19:09. | |
Joe's that kind of person I think he's more than capable | :19:10. | :19:12. | |
of dealing with the pressures And, you know, you say it does | :19:13. | :19:17. | |
affect people detrimentally, but it can also be, you know, | :19:18. | :19:21. | |
something that actually improves him So I think it's probably going to be | :19:22. | :19:25. | |
the case with Joe that it'll I'd be very surprised | :19:26. | :19:32. | |
if it isn't Joe. Well, as at least one career | :19:33. | :19:38. | |
is about to go to next level, Former European champion | :19:39. | :19:41. | |
and Commonwealth medallist Jemma Lowe has called time | :19:42. | :19:44. | |
on a swimming career that has The 26-year-old from Hartlepool | :19:45. | :19:47. | |
has represented Wales in three Commonwealth Games, | :19:48. | :19:52. | |
two Olympics and four World Championships, | :19:53. | :19:55. | |
and was part of the gold medal-winning 4x100m | :19:56. | :19:58. | |
Mixed Medley Relay team which set Rugby league fans are welcoming | :19:59. | :20:00. | |
the new season, and there'll be plenty of so-called regional derbies | :20:01. | :20:10. | |
to look forward to following the relegation of West Cumbrian | :20:11. | :20:12. | |
rivals Workington and Whitehaven. They'll be up against Barrow, | :20:13. | :20:17. | |
York and Newcastle in League One, as well as Canadian newboys Toronto | :20:18. | :20:21. | |
Wolfpack. Some had a longer journey | :20:22. | :20:23. | |
than others, but representatives of the top three divisions | :20:24. | :20:29. | |
in English Rugby League all converged in this building | :20:30. | :20:31. | |
at Leigh, near Manchester. The home of Super League | :20:32. | :20:33. | |
new boys Leigh Centurions. After the elite clubs' season | :20:34. | :20:36. | |
launch, it was the turn of the Championship | :20:37. | :20:39. | |
and League 1 sides. And if, like me, you thought police | :20:40. | :20:42. | |
officers were looking younger these days, how about the new head coach | :20:43. | :20:44. | |
of relegated Whitehaven, Yeah, it's been all | :20:45. | :20:47. | |
right, to be fair. Obviously I've got a good | :20:48. | :20:51. | |
relationship with the lads And I spoke to them before | :20:52. | :20:53. | |
I took the job, so, well, obviously I need to let them do | :20:54. | :20:58. | |
what they need to do away from me, but also I want to be | :20:59. | :21:02. | |
involved with it as well. So, you know, it's finding | :21:03. | :21:04. | |
that happy medium. We've all got respect for each | :21:05. | :21:06. | |
other, players and coaches, Since relegation, both | :21:07. | :21:09. | |
Whitehaven and Workington Town have been rebuilding, | :21:10. | :21:14. | |
with the recruitment of talented youngsters | :21:15. | :21:15. | |
from the Cumbrian amateur game. In the first of at least four | :21:16. | :21:18. | |
meetings between the two clubs, a pre-season friendly friendly | :21:19. | :21:20. | |
playing for the Ike Southward Trophy, Haven even started well, | :21:21. | :21:23. | |
but Town finished stronger, and will probably feel | :21:24. | :21:25. | |
the more confident. If we can sort of bring in these | :21:26. | :21:27. | |
good amateur players and get them interested in wanting to take | :21:28. | :21:30. | |
the opportunity to play for our club and show them | :21:31. | :21:33. | |
there is a pathway up to the top, But hopefully, yeah, | :21:34. | :21:36. | |
we just need to get Cumbria on the map and just get the interest | :21:37. | :21:42. | |
from elsewhere and just get these lads involved, | :21:43. | :21:45. | |
and hopefully we can build and be Also beginning his testimonial year, | :21:46. | :21:48. | |
a player whose club, since renamed and re-homed, | :21:49. | :21:53. | |
once ended a 64-game run without winning, | :21:54. | :21:58. | |
is now looking forward It's great exposure for League 1, | :21:59. | :22:00. | |
Toronto coming down and exposing the league and showing how good | :22:01. | :22:04. | |
the league is. Because it is a good | :22:05. | :22:06. | |
league, it's competitive. Obviously, you know, | :22:07. | :22:08. | |
Toronto are the favourites, But below that I think | :22:09. | :22:10. | |
there are about five or six teams who are competing for those | :22:11. | :22:14. | |
top five places. Last year was a building | :22:15. | :22:18. | |
year for us, and we've We have strength in the squad | :22:19. | :22:20. | |
and depth in the squad. I think the top four | :22:21. | :22:24. | |
finish is a must. For others, moving from a full-time | :22:25. | :22:26. | |
contract with Hull FC to a semiprofessional role | :22:27. | :22:29. | |

and Pictures has featured I make the most of the weather | :23:16. | :23:17. | |
when I'm out doing my pictures. I try and incorporate the weather | :23:18. | :23:36. | |
in my photos, whether it's spring on the north-east coast, | :23:37. | :23:38. | |
big winter storms, There's something about the North | :23:39. | :23:40. | |
of England that has such a vast variety of weather | :23:41. | :23:45. | |
amongst its landscape, it's just... And what would Paul make | :23:46. | :23:47. | |
of your January selection Well, it was indoors | :23:48. | :23:58. | |
for a cuppa to find out. There was a really high standard | :23:59. | :24:07. | |
of pictures that have been sent in, despite not having such a wintry | :24:08. | :24:10. | |
January that we're used to. The lesson I learned when I first | :24:11. | :24:17. | |
started taking pictures was to do it bright, | :24:18. | :24:20. | |
tight, with plenty of depth in the picture, so the picture | :24:21. | :24:22. | |
would tell the story. So my first runner-up is a picture | :24:23. | :24:29. | |
by Eddie from Morpeth. Great depth in this picture | :24:30. | :24:31. | |
from Sheffield Pike, looking north-east up Ullswater | :24:32. | :24:34. | |
towards Pooley Bridge. You can just make out | :24:35. | :24:36. | |
the clouds capping off these And it's of Kirk Carrion, | :24:37. | :24:39. | |
just down the road in Teesdale. It's a gorgeous picture, | :24:40. | :25:00. | |
with the morning light It's such a patchwork of dry stone | :25:01. | :25:02. | |
walls where the sun is just starting to melt the snow, | :25:03. | :25:06. | |
to another great wintry picture My overall winner for January | :25:07. | :25:08. | |
is by Trevor Earthy. What I like about this | :25:09. | :25:21. | |
picture is the contrasting You've got beautiful sunshine | :25:22. | :25:25. | |
shining on the stones And then as you climb up | :25:26. | :25:28. | |
the fells towards the top, you get into the wintry, | :25:29. | :25:33. | |
snowy conditions, with that nice bit It's such a wonderful image to start | :25:34. | :25:36. | |
of the weather calendar. Here here, even Caroline dawn | :25:37. | :25:52. | |
approved! If you have taken a picture this month or are taking one | :25:53. | :25:59. | |
that you think I'd be suitable, you can e-mail them to us. More | :26:00. | :26:03. | |

website. Tomorrow, and East- West split again, it's going to be cold | :26:08. | :26:10. | |
everywhere with an icy start for many and a few wintry flurries in | :26:11. | :26:15. | |
the east. Generally a bit drier and brighter further west. At East - | :26:16. | :26:19. | |
West split theme certainly carries through tonight as well. The risk of | :26:20. | :26:23. | |
icy stretches in the east where these showers have been or will fall | :26:24. | :26:27. | |
through the night, near the coast there will be rain and sleet, other | :26:28. | :26:32. | |
than the tops of the hills we won't put down anything more than a white | :26:33. | :26:35. | |
dusting in places. Drier, clearer further west with a widespread | :26:36. | :26:43. | |
frost, temperatures down to minus two. Tomorrow, the East - West split | :26:44. | :26:48. | |
continues, a lot of cloud in eastern areas, more showers coming in off | :26:49. | :26:53. | |
the North Sea. Again, a wintry flavour to those. Not producing too | :26:54. | :26:58. | |
much settling snow. Further west, Cumbria is dry with a few bright as | :26:59. | :27:02. | |
polls. That's where we will see the higher afternoon temperatures, | :27:03. | :27:06. | |
defies all Sears, more like twos and threes for the north-east. High | :27:07. | :27:12. | |
pressure over Scandinavia feeds in a cold easterly wind towards the | :27:13. | :27:18. | |
weekend. The risk of wintry showers becoming more widespread, you might | :27:19. | :27:22. | |
be trying to see a covering eastern parts through the weekend. It's | :27:23. | :27:26. | |
certainly going to say chilly over the coming few days. I was Chile | :27:27. | :27:33. | |
driving back, I have the car heater up to 25 degrees and I still didn't | :27:34. | :27:43. | |
fall out! Terrible! That's it from us tonight, bye-bye. | :27:44. | :28:15. | |
