That's all from the BBC News at Six, so it's goodbye from me, and on BBC

:00:00.:00:00.

Hello, welcome to Look North. The programme tonight, Yorkshire's only

:00:00.:00:12.

female Tory MP, ousted by her own party. Anne McIntosh pays the price

:00:13.:00:17.

for falling out with local party officials but she won't go quietly.

:00:18.:00:22.

I do not intend to be thrown aside by a small group. It is for my

:00:23.:00:25.

constituents as a whole to dismiss me, if they wish to do so. We live

:00:26.:00:30.

from Westminster where her fate was decided. Also tonight, in limbo, the

:00:31.:00:35.

Yorkshire residents who can't sell their houses while plans for a

:00:36.:00:39.

high`speed rail link are finalised. We'll Labour them? We will ask let

:00:40.:00:46.

Wash we will ask Ed Miliband, who joins us live. Could this be the new

:00:47.:00:51.

owner of Leeds United? An Italian with two fraud convictions. School

:00:52.:00:57.

dinners, who will be crowned the School Chef Of The Year? And after

:00:58.:01:00.

wet and windy weather this evening our attention turns to the risk of

:01:01.:01:05.

ice. We have a Met Office weather warning. I have the details later in

:01:06.:01:07.

the programme. Good evening and welcome to the

:01:08.:01:17.

programme. The Conservative MP for Thirsk and Malton, Anne McIntosh,

:01:18.:01:20.

has lost her battle against deselection. Her local party called

:01:21.:01:23.

a ballot of members after they were concerned she hadn't done enough to

:01:24.:01:27.

represent her own constituents. But Ms McIntosh has vowed to stand as an

:01:28.:01:30.

independent at the next election ` saying she won't be "thrown aside by

:01:31.:01:35.

a small cabal". Our political editor Len Tingle joins us live now from

:01:36.:01:43.

Westminster. You have been following the twists and turns. Describe what

:01:44.:01:48.

happened at the ballot. It was nail`biting stuff. There are 560

:01:49.:01:53.

members of the Conservative Party in Thirsk and Malton. All of them

:01:54.:01:58.

potentially had a vote. At midday, Anne McIntosh turned up at Central

:01:59.:02:02.

office here in London. We expected a little while to be taken to verify

:02:03.:02:06.

the votes, to make sure that every single vote was from a genuine

:02:07.:02:10.

member of the Conservative Party and then the count would begin. We

:02:11.:02:13.

expected the result about 2:30pm. But clearly it was really tough

:02:14.:02:20.

going inside because it was all 4pm that we got some kind of indication

:02:21.:02:25.

that she had rather historically lost that ballot, so she will not be

:02:26.:02:29.

the candidate at the 2015 election as far as the constituency

:02:30.:02:34.

association is concerned. But, as you say, she will not go down

:02:35.:02:39.

fighting. She came out and this is what she had to say. I do not intend

:02:40.:02:45.

to be thrown aside by a small group. It is for my constituents as a whole

:02:46.:02:49.

to dismiss me, if they wish to do so. It is my intention to stand and

:02:50.:02:54.

represent Thirsk, Malton and finally constituency at the next general

:02:55.:03:00.

election and I shall continue to fulfil my duties including helping

:03:01.:03:03.

candidates who are starting `` standing this year and next year.

:03:04.:03:10.

Fighting talk. What happens in her constituency? This is one of the

:03:11.:03:13.

safest Tory seats in the country, and 11,000 majority at the last

:03:14.:03:17.

election. They will be queueing up to become a candidate here. What

:03:18.:03:21.

starts now is the selection process. There will be an open invitation for

:03:22.:03:26.

people to apply, a short list drawn up and sometime towards the middle

:03:27.:03:29.

of the year the association will decide exactly who is going to

:03:30.:03:34.

represent them in 2015. But if Anne McIntosh decides to go ahead and

:03:35.:03:38.

stand herself, presumably as an independent, that could split the

:03:39.:03:43.

vote. That could lead to a very, very interesting time. Remember,

:03:44.:03:47.

North Yorkshire is an area that has been targeted by UKIP, so it could

:03:48.:03:52.

be that the 11,000 majority might perhaps not be as safe as it used to

:03:53.:03:59.

be. Len Tingle, thank you very much. People living along the line of the

:04:00.:04:03.

proposed High Speed 2 railway in Yorkshire have told Look North their

:04:04.:04:06.

lives are in limbo until the route is agreed. The consultation ended at

:04:07.:04:10.

5pm today ` but it'll be the end of the year before a definite route is

:04:11.:04:13.

confirmed. There's also a growing campaign in South Yorkshire to have

:04:14.:04:17.

a station in Sheffield city centre rather than at Meadowhall. We'll get

:04:18.:04:20.

the thoughts of the Labour leader, Ed Miliband, in a moment ` but first

:04:21.:04:27.

Spencer Stokes reports. Where exactly should the high`speed line

:04:28.:04:31.

go and where should the stations be built? The government has proposed a

:04:32.:04:36.

railway from London, to Birmingham, Manchester and Yorkshire but the

:04:37.:04:39.

route is not yet definite and for the last year people have been

:04:40.:04:43.

making their voices heard. Here it would run along concrete viaduct but

:04:44.:04:49.

residents say as things stand only six properties would be entitled to

:04:50.:04:53.

compensation. I live at this house here, Spencer, and the proposed line

:04:54.:04:57.

is going to run between the canal and the River and it is on the green

:04:58.:05:04.

strip of land here and it would be the viaduct. This man would be

:05:05.:05:08.

obviously the viaduct from his home, so he is trying to sell. But he has

:05:09.:05:13.

had no viewing. Time is marching on, I want to get on with my life and do

:05:14.:05:16.

other things but I can't do anything. HS2 limited so you have to

:05:17.:05:24.

live within 60 metres of the planned railway to get compensation and they

:05:25.:05:28.

reiterate the route may change. One way of reducing the visual impact

:05:29.:05:31.

would be to bury the railway and Tim the South of England HS2 has

:05:32.:05:35.

announced it will hold more tunnels but tunnels cost huge amounts of

:05:36.:05:41.

money. This government, or any future government, doesn't want to

:05:42.:05:46.

see the price tag for HS2 rise any higher. Further north in Church

:05:47.:05:50.

Fenton residents would like to see HS2 cancels completely and one local

:05:51.:05:53.

estate agent says until people know for certain what is happening the

:05:54.:05:58.

village is in limbo. People have lost control of their own destiny.

:05:59.:06:03.

It is very hard at this stage to put a figure on it. You could see

:06:04.:06:10.

between 20 and 30% wiped off values. Colmcille `` councils have been

:06:11.:06:14.

consulted. Wakefield has voted against HS2 and in Sheffield there

:06:15.:06:20.

is a campaign for us it is `` for a city centre station rather than an

:06:21.:06:25.

interchange at Meadowhall. There would be more jobs. There is a jobs

:06:26.:06:29.

target of 70,000 jobs in the next decade. This would make a huge

:06:30.:06:33.

contribution towards that so surely it has to be in the centre. But

:06:34.:06:38.

Sheffield Central Station would cost ?1 billion more on the idea is not

:06:39.:06:43.

popular in Barnsley or rather. The consultation has now closed. HS2's

:06:44.:06:47.

planners have plenty to think about. But it will be the end of the year

:06:48.:06:50.

before we definitively know the precise route of the new railway.

:06:51.:06:57.

Listening to that was the leader of the Labour Party in `` and Doncaster

:06:58.:07:03.

North MP Ed Miliband. Are you in favour of HS2? We are supporters of

:07:04.:07:07.

HS2 and I am very sympathetic to the residents we heard on your film. We

:07:08.:07:11.

have to make sure it is value for money. We have been concerned about

:07:12.:07:15.

the costs seeming to rise and go up and up over the last few months. The

:07:16.:07:19.

government is supposed to be coming forward with new plans to show how

:07:20.:07:22.

they can get the costs down and we are waiting that because I have a

:07:23.:07:26.

responsibility to make sure that if a labour government is elected in

:07:27.:07:30.

2015, we can pay our way in the world, we get our deficit down and

:07:31.:07:35.

we have got to make sure that HS2 is affordable. That does not help these

:07:36.:07:39.

residents. They cannot sell their homes. For 20 years, they are

:07:40.:07:44.

blighted unstuck. I am sympathetic to that, that is why the government

:07:45.:07:48.

has to get on with it. They must have their new plans in terms of

:07:49.:07:52.

costs and a definitive view on what the cost is going to be. Your

:07:53.:07:56.

Chancellor, Ed Balls, a neighbouring MP, Alec Shell Brooke, a

:07:57.:08:02.

Conservative MP, has tabled a motion for an all `` alternative route but

:08:03.:08:06.

Mr balls says the problem is they plan would increase the cost. Or

:08:07.:08:11.

read deep it is hugely over budget. The priority would be to reduce the

:08:12.:08:14.

cost. He is hugely over budget. The priority would be to reduce the

:08:15.:08:18.

cost. Here's Rick difficult financial situation. We have to pay

:08:19.:08:22.

down the deficit and make sure that HS2 is affordable. Ed Balls is

:08:23.:08:27.

right. They have to find a way to get the costs under control. You

:08:28.:08:31.

have been at a housing development in Pudsey which is nearing

:08:32.:08:34.

completion. Figures show that Yorkshire, 17% house`building has

:08:35.:08:40.

gone up in this part of the world and you are calling for more houses

:08:41.:08:44.

to be built if you get into power. In that region, in Pudsey, a few

:08:45.:08:48.

miles down the road, loads of protests about building on

:08:49.:08:52.

greenfield sights. If you get into power are you going to build on

:08:53.:08:56.

green belt? We think it should be brown field first. That should be

:08:57.:08:59.

the priority for new building. We have been talking about our plan to

:09:00.:09:04.

get 200,000 homes a year built by the end of the next Parliament

:09:05.:09:07.

across the country because the reality is what we are falling

:09:08.:09:11.

behind with the demand for new homes. We have a problem, we are not

:09:12.:09:16.

building enough houses. How do we build more? First of all we cannot

:09:17.:09:19.

let developers sit on land in the way they do. When it has planning

:09:20.:09:23.

permission they wait until it accumulates in value. We say

:09:24.:09:28.

councils should have the power to say use it or lose it, don't sit on

:09:29.:09:33.

the land. Secondly, we have to take seriously the issue of councils who

:09:34.:09:36.

want to expand, like York, who find there are barriers in their way. A

:09:37.:09:41.

lot of places people do want the homes to be built and councils are

:09:42.:09:46.

finding big obstacles in their way. Places like Pudsey and Manston

:09:47.:09:51.

nearby, they are seeing hundreds of homes being built on land that they

:09:52.:09:55.

want protected. They want it to be green spaces. You will not win votes

:09:56.:09:58.

if you start building on the green belt, will you? There are plans to

:09:59.:10:02.

make sure that if any building takes place on greenfield land that you

:10:03.:10:05.

preserve the amount of greenfield land there is Ulster we have a

:10:06.:10:08.

problem in this country which is we are not building enough homes and

:10:09.:10:13.

that young families can't afford to rent or buy homes. People stay

:10:14.:10:16.

living with their parents much longer than they used to. We have to

:10:17.:10:21.

make progress. It is what parts `` it is part of what Labour has been

:10:22.:10:24.

talking about, the cost of living crisis. I am determined whether it

:10:25.:10:30.

is on housing, and energy price freeze or better childcare to take

:10:31.:10:33.

action and that is what Labour government would do. I want to talk

:10:34.:10:38.

about immigration. We will ask your views in a moment. I want you to

:10:39.:10:42.

look at this. This is what we asked people on the streets of Barnsley

:10:43.:10:46.

today. The town centre has got more immigrants in it than actual people

:10:47.:10:51.

shopping. I think they should be more like Australia and other

:10:52.:10:55.

countries and limit it and let them come in if they have money and jobs.

:10:56.:11:00.

When people go into classrooms, there are 40 and it is the worst

:11:01.:11:05.

education anywhere. Things need to get better, not worse. What are you

:11:06.:11:08.

going to do about immigration? You got it wrong during your term in

:11:09.:11:13.

power, didn't you? I have changed Labour's view on immigration. I am

:11:14.:11:18.

the son of immigrants and we have to welcome people in if they make a

:11:19.:11:21.

contribution and it has to be fair. Proper control of our borders,

:11:22.:11:25.

incredibly important. People integrated into our country,

:11:26.:11:29.

learning English. Thirdly, this is really important and in my

:11:30.:11:32.

constituency it is a concern, we can't have people coming in and

:11:33.:11:36.

undercutting the wages of people here, British citizens, because

:11:37.:11:39.

people come in and are paid less than the minimum wage, 15 people put

:11:40.:11:44.

in a house. We have to stop those abuses of the system. I will not

:11:45.:11:47.

make false promises on immigration because people are fed up of

:11:48.:11:52.

politicians doing that but there are things we can do and it is a changed

:11:53.:11:56.

Labour party when it comes to immigration. We have learned our

:11:57.:12:00.

lesson. We allowed too many people to come in in 2004, when Poland came

:12:01.:12:05.

into the European Union, and we have learned our lesson on that and of

:12:06.:12:08.

course we need to welcome people who can make a contribution but it has

:12:09.:12:13.

to be fair as properly controlled. You are talking about what you would

:12:14.:12:16.

do if you got into power. The opinion poles are not great. One

:12:17.:12:21.

points ahead, not long to the general election. Your party seems

:12:22.:12:25.

popular but are you a liability? I don't spend my time looking at the

:12:26.:12:35.

opinion poles. I'd look at what has happened to people's living

:12:36.:12:37.

standards and they have been falling. I am talking about how we

:12:38.:12:40.

can make a difference. You face ups and downs, the main thing is to talk

:12:41.:12:43.

about the issues people are concerned about because too much of

:12:44.:12:47.

is focused on the ins and outs of Westminster and we need to be

:12:48.:12:50.

focused on the issues of people's lives and that is where Labour's

:12:51.:12:55.

focus will be. Thanks for coming in. Thank you. Later on Look North,

:12:56.:13:01.

could this be the future owner of Leeds United? Massimo Cellino is

:13:02.:13:04.

rumoured to be ahead in the club's takeover battle but he comes with

:13:05.:13:10.

two convictions for fraud. A 25`year`old former soldier Jeremy

:13:11.:13:13.

Green has accepted the unlawful killing of an estate agency worker

:13:14.:13:16.

and the unlawful injuring of her colleague in York last October. The

:13:17.:13:21.

body of Nicole Waterhouse, who was 32, was found in her flat off Leeman

:13:22.:13:27.

Road. Her colleague, 23`year`old Karen Browne, was also found there

:13:28.:13:32.

with serious injuries. Jeremy Green, who lives in Popeshead Court in the

:13:33.:13:36.

centre of York, has yet to answer to charges of murder and attempted

:13:37.:13:40.

murder. The case in Leeds has been adjourned. Almost 150 jobs are at

:13:41.:13:45.

risk in Bradford ` as Thomas Cook announces plans to close its

:13:46.:13:48.

remaining office there. A site in the city centre has already closed

:13:49.:13:51.

and now its office in Birkenshaw could also shut. Back office work

:13:52.:13:55.

carried out there could be moved to Peterborough. A consultation on the

:13:56.:13:59.

idea will now take place, before a final decision is made. An air

:14:00.:14:03.

steward has been jailed for five years for trying to smuggle heroin

:14:04.:14:06.

through Leeds Bradford Airport. Syed Shahrukh Shah, who worked for

:14:07.:14:09.

Pakistan International Airways, was caught with almost ?650,000 worth of

:14:10.:14:13.

heroin, as he came off a flight from Islamabad last November. He pleaded

:14:14.:14:20.

guilty to importation of a class A drug and was today sentenced to five

:14:21.:14:26.

years in prison. Ambulance staff are to go on strike from midnight

:14:27.:14:29.

tonight for 24 hours and for four hours on Monday. It's in a dispute

:14:30.:14:34.

over changes to shift patterns. The Yorkshire Ambulance Trust says about

:14:35.:14:37.

eight per cent of its emergency workforce, those who are members of

:14:38.:14:40.

the Unite union, are involved. The union says the changes to shifts are

:14:41.:14:44.

not family friendly and will lead to an overtired workforce. The

:14:45.:14:47.

Ambulance Trust says patients will be safe. I don't think members of

:14:48.:14:55.

the public will see any significant difference on Saturday and Monday.

:14:56.:14:59.

As I have said I think the vast `` the vast majority of our staff will

:15:00.:15:03.

work. We have the contingencies in place to make sure we move our

:15:04.:15:06.

resources to where the greatest need is. I would ask members of the

:15:07.:15:11.

public if it is not a life`threatening emergency, go to

:15:12.:15:15.

your local walk`in centre, the minor injury unit or ring NHS 111. A

:15:16.:15:18.

massive land and sea search has been taking place off the North Yorkshire

:15:19.:15:22.

coast to find a missing angler. The man had been angling at Hundale

:15:23.:15:25.

Point, near Scarborough, but failed to return home yesterday evening.

:15:26.:15:28.

Our reporter, Danny Carpenter, sent us this report from Scarborough.

:15:29.:15:35.

The search for Nigel Savage began at first light. His wife reported him

:15:36.:15:40.

missing to Humberside police when he failed to return from a fishing

:15:41.:15:44.

expedition. He had been fishing off rocks along this coast line and that

:15:45.:15:47.

is where the search has been concentrated today. They have found

:15:48.:15:51.

his car, they have found his springer spaniel is and some fishing

:15:52.:15:56.

equipment, but so far no trace of him. The area has been extensively

:15:57.:16:02.

searched by all agencies and we have wrapped it up this afternoon for the

:16:03.:16:06.

time being. Until any further information or anything else comes

:16:07.:16:11.

forward. Mountain rescue teams joined the search and there was

:16:12.:16:14.

drama late this afternoon when one of them had to be winched off the

:16:15.:16:18.

beach. He had fallen and dislocated his shoulder happened had to be

:16:19.:16:22.

taken to hospital in the air sea rescue helicopter. Police will make

:16:23.:16:25.

a decision sometime tomorrow as to whether to resume this search.

:16:26.:16:34.

Before 7pm, it is a game many others remember from school. Maybe not

:16:35.:16:39.

you, Phil! It is one of the UK's fastest`growing sports. We will be

:16:40.:16:42.

talking to a member of the Yorkshire Jets, who is on the England team.

:16:43.:16:46.

And school dinners without the stodge. Three cooks go head`to`head

:16:47.:16:50.

in a bid to be crowned School Chef Of The Year. Sport ` and it seems

:16:51.:16:57.

the Italian Massimo Cellino is on the verge of completing a takeover

:16:58.:17:02.

of Leeds United. However a rival consortium, the one headed by Mike

:17:03.:17:06.

Farnan, have hit back this afternoon ` questioning why this deal is being

:17:07.:17:14.

rushed through. Tanya Arnold is here. What is going on? Let's take

:17:15.:17:19.

you back 36 hours when another group, sports capital, headed by

:17:20.:17:23.

Leeds United's managing director seemed to be the driving seat. They

:17:24.:17:27.

finally accepted they could not do it, they did not have the financial

:17:28.:17:32.

backing. We are up to two others. Massimo Cellino, what the front

:17:33.:17:35.

runner and it increasingly looks like the man who is going to put the

:17:36.:17:40.

bidding to get 75%. This rival bid, the one headed by Mike Farnan, has

:17:41.:17:44.

the likes of Gary Verity from welcome to Yorkshire and Adam

:17:45.:17:48.

Pearson involved well. They say we want to do a deal as well, we can't

:17:49.:17:52.

get to talk to Leeds United, so questioning why the other deal is

:17:53.:17:56.

going so fast. The Italian businessman sounds like a colourful

:17:57.:18:00.

character? He is indeed, I notice you did not say his name! He is

:18:01.:18:05.

colourful, somebody who you either love or hate, they say. He has a

:18:06.:18:11.

slightly chequered past. He has convictions for fraud. Accounting.

:18:12.:18:15.

If this deal does go ahead it will have to go to the football league to

:18:16.:18:19.

be ratified and they have a fit and proper persons test which will be an

:18:20.:18:22.

interesting thing. Also a little twist, the man in charge of the

:18:23.:18:26.

football league is the former chief executive of Leeds United, Shaun

:18:27.:18:30.

Harvey. What will it mean for the team and for the manager? Let's say

:18:31.:18:34.

the Italian does get through, it won't be good news for Brian

:18:35.:18:37.

McDermott. He has made it clear he doesn't want a manager, he wants a

:18:38.:18:42.

coach. On Tuesday he tried to get his own man into the dugout to the

:18:43.:18:48.

game alongside Brian McDermott. He has behaved I think exceptionally

:18:49.:18:50.

well, anybody outside the game would say he has dealt with a huge amount.

:18:51.:18:58.

Today, he was asked about whether tomorrow's game would be his final

:18:59.:19:02.

game, he had this to say. I have no idea. The only thing that matters to

:19:03.:19:07.

me as the game tomorrow. Every time you are a football manager it could

:19:08.:19:10.

be the last time, that is how it works. You make the most of every

:19:11.:19:15.

single game you have got, especially when you are manager of Leeds

:19:16.:19:19.

United, which is a privilege. He said he did not expect Ross

:19:20.:19:23.

McCormack to be sold, but some others may do. It is transfer

:19:24.:19:33.

deadline day. Yesterday, Sheffield Wednesday side bars `` Arsenal's

:19:34.:19:37.

Benik Afobe. Barnsley have signed Emmanuel Frimpong. The 22`year`old,

:19:38.:19:46.

seen here playing for Wolves, is Danny Wilson's sixth signing since

:19:47.:19:49.

taking over at Oakwell. The Bradford Bulls could be docked points for the

:19:50.:19:53.

second time in two years. This morning they went into

:19:54.:19:55.

administration, though they came straight back out of it under new

:19:56.:19:59.

ownership. They'll now be run by Bradford Bulls 2014 and say they'll

:20:00.:20:02.

continue to work with their creditors. They hope this will

:20:03.:20:04.

persuade the Rugby Football League against a points deduction in a

:20:05.:20:08.

season where two teams will be relegated from Super League.

:20:09.:20:10.

Netball's new Super League season gets underway this weekend and the

:20:11.:20:14.

Yorkshire Jets first game is away to Loughborough Lightening. It's a big

:20:15.:20:17.

year for the sport in this country as it's part of the Commonwealth

:20:18.:20:20.

Games in Glasgow. Joining us is the Jets England international, Natalie

:20:21.:20:29.

Haythornthwaite. You like any other sports person, you have done

:20:30.:20:32.

pre`season and you can't wait for it to get under way? We have been at

:20:33.:20:37.

preseason, so I can't wait for it to get under way. What do you expect to

:20:38.:20:43.

achieve? We want to get into the top four. We have new faces in the team,

:20:44.:20:47.

some new people coming back into the squad, youngsters coming up and we

:20:48.:20:51.

really excited and aiming for the top four by the first half of the

:20:52.:20:56.

season. It is a blend of youth and experience? Yes. You have overseas

:20:57.:21:04.

players? Yes, three from New Zealand and one from Australia. You are part

:21:05.:21:08.

of the England team and the England set`up has gone from strength to

:21:09.:21:11.

strength. We have an intensive netball training centre, there are

:21:12.:21:15.

three of the country. England players can train together

:21:16.:21:20.

throughout the week. It is great. You beat Australia in the test

:21:21.:21:24.

series last year and you have Australia, Jamaica and New Zealand

:21:25.:21:28.

who are the big four. He will be at the Commonwealth Games. How

:21:29.:21:33.

important is that? It is so important to netball because it is

:21:34.:21:36.

not an Olympic sport. The Commonwealth Games is like our

:21:37.:21:39.

Olympics. It is the biggest competition, very important. The

:21:40.:21:48.

uptake is massive. Why has that happened? When you drop out of high

:21:49.:21:51.

school and finish high school you don't tend to continue in sport so

:21:52.:22:00.

the Back To Netball has got people into sport. Do you think you could

:22:01.:22:08.

persuade us back in? I played at school, goal attack, and when you

:22:09.:22:11.

leave school you don't know where to play any more but I love the game.

:22:12.:22:15.

It is great if it is coming back. Definitely. The amount of women who

:22:16.:22:19.

have come back into the sport. A new years resolution, why not give it a

:22:20.:22:24.

go? I was goal defence, so it would be me against you! Maybe we should

:22:25.:22:30.

have a Look North team! This could be tough! Thank you for coming in

:22:31.:22:34.

and good luck for the season. It's one of those things everyone has a

:22:35.:22:40.

story about ` school dinners! Manchester tart was my favourite.

:22:41.:22:45.

Semolina was my favourite. What about the film on the top, the skin?

:22:46.:22:49.

I loved it, a bit of jam as well. Today in Doncaster, three top cooks

:22:50.:22:52.

from Yorkshire schools were stirring up a culinary storm. Each was hoping

:22:53.:22:56.

to be crowned the regional winner of the prestigious School Chef Of The

:22:57.:22:59.

Year competition. Our resident bon vivant of lumpy dumplings is Tom

:23:00.:23:08.

Ingall. Three, two, one, start cooking. Or as we used to say,

:23:09.:23:13.

Ready, Steady, Cook. These kings and queens of their canteens have it all

:23:14.:23:16.

to prove. Representing Maltby, Kevin Hardman. What we create today

:23:17.:23:24.

hopefully we'll take it forward and use it in school meals. The home

:23:25.:23:28.

player, from Donny ` Alison Jones. It has been a good experience so

:23:29.:23:33.

far. You still want to win? Definitely, it is And from the wild

:23:34.:23:37.

lands of Whitby, reckon on Katherine Breckon. A competition. The cooking

:23:38.:23:44.

is serious, you have to get it right. This competition is properly

:23:45.:23:48.

serious. I have had to put all this on so I don't shed hair into a

:23:49.:23:52.

souffle or something. We are a long way from the days of soggy semolina.

:23:53.:23:59.

I have been slicing and dicing and doing processes I didn't know about

:24:00.:24:03.

until this morning. Among the judges today two gastronomes to make a

:24:04.:24:06.

superchef crumble. Kian Lee and Emma Marsh from Kirk Sandall Junior

:24:07.:24:14.

School. I saw your presentation upstairs. I really liked it. What

:24:15.:24:18.

will you be looking for today, do you think? The texture, the

:24:19.:24:24.

presentation. What is the chef at your school like? Nice. Yes. She

:24:25.:24:30.

always asks us if we like it or not so she knows whether to do the

:24:31.:24:34.

recipe again. But how's this for making your dinner money stretch?

:24:35.:24:37.

Kevin, Alison and Katherine were only allowed a budget of ?1.60 to

:24:38.:24:41.

make their name ` in a main and dessert. OK, guys, the winner of the

:24:42.:24:49.

Yorkshire Humber regional final, going through to the national final

:24:50.:24:56.

is... Catherine. Absolutely delighted. I am The winning dish `

:24:57.:25:00.

east meets west turkey bites. Chuffed, in shock. The twizzlers

:25:01.:25:03.

have had their chips ` but nobody else has missed having theirs.

:25:04.:25:13.

It looks gorgeous, that. New Low`macro Spam fritters were my

:25:14.:25:19.

favourite! What was your favourite? I had to

:25:20.:25:29.

take a back`up. My children take a packed lunch. I used to put it in

:25:30.:25:33.

the bin and buy a jacket potato for 12p!

:25:34.:25:38.

This picture sums up this week. It is really rainy out there. It has

:25:39.:25:46.

been great and grim all week. The next picture is not of this week, it

:25:47.:25:50.

is this time last year but I put it in because we have not seen blue

:25:51.:25:55.

skies for a while. Remember that, this time last year? A third

:25:56.:25:59.

picture, a bleak picture, but it is stunning come the Ribblehead

:26:00.:26:04.

viaduct. Please keep your pictures coming in.

:26:05.:26:14.

After the wet and windy of today and tonight, we have had snow in

:26:15.:26:20.

places, our concerns turn to tomorrow morning and the risk of

:26:21.:26:24.

ice, cold temperatures overnight. This is the front that is lingering

:26:25.:26:28.

in eastern areas, bringing heavy rain. Behind it, through the course

:26:29.:26:32.

of the weekend, windy conditions. You can see the tightly packed

:26:33.:26:36.

isobars. You can see the cloud, the area of low pressure spreading from

:26:37.:26:40.

the West. It brought snow to higher ground. It brought a lot of rain. It

:26:41.:26:45.

is lingering in the east, it will clear away, followed by a few

:26:46.:26:49.

showers and drier spells. Our concern turns to icy stretches into

:26:50.:26:54.

tomorrow. These are the values in the towns and cities. Cool in the

:26:55.:26:59.

countryside. The risk of ice on untreated surfaces into tomorrow.

:27:00.:27:08.

It is not all doom and gloom for the weekend. Very windy conditions. We

:27:09.:27:15.

have a warning for ice to start but first, some sunshine. Get out and

:27:16.:27:21.

make the most of it. Careful on slippery pavements. Showers become

:27:22.:27:24.

more frequent and persistent and bring health note as they merge into

:27:25.:27:28.

longer spells of rain in the afternoon. Chilly but not as cold as

:27:29.:27:37.

today. Seven Celsius tropical! We lumpy dumplings will be back on

:27:38.:27:44.

Monday at 6:30pm. I will be back at M25 PM with Keely. Good night. `` at

:27:45.:27:48.

10:25pm. Next up in the Den, it is Chris and

:27:49.:28:49.

Alex. Hello, dragons, thank you for having us. I am out. We are not

:28:50.:28:58.

asking for money, we want you to come on The One
