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 | :28:59. | :28:59. |
