of blue results. He spent just ten months in | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
The longer it goes on, the more men lose their jobs. It is not a nice | :00:00. | :00:21. | |
thing to vote to put your workmates on the dole. But UK Coal still needs | :00:22. | :00:25. | |
its investors to back the plan. We'll be live in Kellingley with the | :00:26. | :00:29. | |
latest. Also tonight: Day two of a large industrial fire in Leeds ` | :00:30. | :00:32. | |
fire crews say it's the biggest they've dealt with this year. And | :00:33. | :00:36. | |
dumped in a bin ` a litter of newborn kittens is rescued by a | :00:37. | :00:43. | |
passer`by in Sheffield. A lovely blue sky of the bank holiday weekend | :00:44. | :00:47. | |
disappeared today, but tomorrow is looking more promising. Join me for | :00:48. | :00:49. | |
the detailed forecast. Good evening and welcome to | :00:50. | :00:57. | |
Tuesday's Look North. Miners at Kellingley Colliery have voted | :00:58. | :01:00. | |
overwhelmingly to accept a managed closure of the pit. UK Coal sent a | :01:01. | :01:04. | |
postal ballot to more than 700 miners to seek their views. Nearly | :01:05. | :01:08. | |
80% of them voted in favour of closing the pit. The deal will see | :01:09. | :01:13. | |
gradual job losses over an 18`month period, with the site finally | :01:14. | :01:18. | |
closing in December 2015. Our reporter Ian White has spent the day | :01:19. | :01:23. | |
outside Kellingley Colliery. Ian ` what is the mood there | :01:24. | :01:28. | |
tonight? Good evening. The sun is now | :01:29. | :01:35. | |
shining, but it has been a pretty dark, damp and wet day and indeed it | :01:36. | :01:39. | |
is still very dark and damp inside there, where people are feeling very | :01:40. | :01:43. | |
sad about the prospect of Kellingley pit closing. With me is Chris | :01:44. | :01:48. | |
Kitchen, leader of the NUM. It was just after midday that the ballot | :01:49. | :01:52. | |
closed. Reminder is what the ballot result was? The ballot result was | :01:53. | :01:57. | |
80% in favour of keeping Kellingley open and working to the managed | :01:58. | :02:01. | |
closure plan. For the NUM that does give us an option to try and | :02:02. | :02:05. | |
persuade private investors or government to step in and keep | :02:06. | :02:08. | |
Kellingley open long`term. We know there is a market for the fuel that | :02:09. | :02:12. | |
is mined here just down the road at tracks. `` Drax. But your members | :02:13. | :02:26. | |
have voted for it to close? Without a yes vote, Kellingley would have | :02:27. | :02:30. | |
been shipped within days, so they have voted to keep it open to | :02:31. | :02:34. | |
campaign for longer to keep it open in the longer term. Are you in a | :02:35. | :02:39. | |
better position than 24 hours ago? We are in the `` in that the | :02:40. | :02:44. | |
stakeholders were looking for a decisive decision and 80% should be | :02:45. | :02:48. | |
decisive. We have to wait until Thursday for the stakeholders to | :02:49. | :02:52. | |
make up their mind. Andrew Mackintosh from UK Coal, if there | :02:53. | :02:56. | |
had been a youth `` if there had been a no vote, it would have | :02:57. | :03:00. | |
affected Thoresby in Nottinghamshire? Yes, 2000 jobs in | :03:01. | :03:06. | |
total. A good result today. What happens now? The ballot result has | :03:07. | :03:10. | |
gone to the investors. Three different ones are putting in ?20 | :03:11. | :03:15. | |
million. It will be weak `` it will be with those, and hopefully mulling | :03:16. | :03:19. | |
it over and looking at it as a good result and we can move forward. | :03:20. | :03:24. | |
People want to know quickly. Yes, it has been a long time getting here. | :03:25. | :03:29. | |
We are getting towards the end of this phase, so hopefully in with the | :03:30. | :03:33. | |
next two weeks we should have a response and know if the deal is | :03:34. | :03:37. | |
good for the next 18 months. That is the latest from Kellingley this | :03:38. | :03:40. | |
evening. It's the biggest fire West Yorkshire | :03:41. | :03:43. | |
Fire Service have dealt with this year. Today firefighters were still | :03:44. | :03:46. | |
tackling the flames on an industrial estate near Leeds City Centre. | :03:47. | :03:49. | |
Demolition crews have been helping them reach the fire. It's still not | :03:50. | :03:52. | |
known how it started. Emma Glasbey reports. | :03:53. | :03:58. | |
The fire was still burning late this afternoon, as firefighters spent a | :03:59. | :04:02. | |
second day on this Leeds industrial estate. Demolition teams moved in to | :04:03. | :04:08. | |
help the crews reach pockets of fire underneath the building. West | :04:09. | :04:14. | |
Yorkshire Fire Service say it is the biggest fire they have dealt with | :04:15. | :04:17. | |
this year. At its height around 100 firefighters were tackling the | :04:18. | :04:22. | |
flames. The cause is under investigation. It took a lot of | :04:23. | :04:27. | |
resources to contain the fire. What is pleasing is the amount of | :04:28. | :04:30. | |
premises we have managed to save, due to the hard work and commitment | :04:31. | :04:35. | |
of the firefighters. But for this fire to break out in the early hours | :04:36. | :04:39. | |
of Easter Monday morning suggests perhaps it was started deliberately? | :04:40. | :04:43. | |
I would not like to comment at this stage. There will be a cause | :04:44. | :04:46. | |
determined in due course over the next couple of days. Around 20 | :04:47. | :04:51. | |
firefighters remained at the scene today. Staff from the Environment | :04:52. | :04:55. | |
Agency were also there, with concerns about fish in the nearby | :04:56. | :05:00. | |
canal. They have announced they will be opening a lock gate so distressed | :05:01. | :05:03. | |
fish can swim to fresh water in the River Aire. The air is still thick | :05:04. | :05:11. | |
with smoke here in Armley, more than 36 hours after the fire broke out. | :05:12. | :05:15. | |
You can really feel the smoke at the back of your throat. This smoke is | :05:16. | :05:20. | |
not thought to contain only any chemicals but the people working | :05:21. | :05:23. | |
later by are still being told to keep their doors and windows closed. | :05:24. | :05:31. | |
The fire engulfed Tradpak wee cycling and Hazel Products. Today, | :05:32. | :05:35. | |
some neighbouring businesses were able to open as normal after the | :05:36. | :05:40. | |
Easter break. I was nervous all day and did not get much sleep | :05:41. | :05:45. | |
yesterday. I am relieved the building is in one piece and my vans | :05:46. | :05:48. | |
were unaffected. All I can say is praised the Fire Brigade. An | :05:49. | :05:53. | |
excellent job, saving the surrounding buildings. Tonight, | :05:54. | :05:57. | |
firefighters are damping down. It is possible they will still be here | :05:58. | :06:01. | |
tomorrow. Later on Look North ` one of the | :06:02. | :06:05. | |
Tour de France's top teams has arrived in Yorkshire to try out the | :06:06. | :06:08. | |
route. And it seems even the professionals make heavy weather of | :06:09. | :06:12. | |
our steepest climbs. We'll get their thoughts. A month from today, the | :06:13. | :06:18. | |
polling stations will be open for the European elections. Do you know | :06:19. | :06:23. | |
how you're going to vote? Do you even know who you'll be voting for ` | :06:24. | :06:27. | |
and what they do once elected? Harry has a handy guide. | :06:28. | :06:33. | |
We'll be voting for our MEPs ` that stands for Members of the European | :06:34. | :06:36. | |
Parliament. We get six of them to represent Yorkshire and the Humber. | :06:37. | :06:40. | |
These are the people we have at the moment. There's Edward | :06:41. | :06:42. | |
McMillan`Scott, a Liberal Democrat. Linda McAvan for Labour. Godfrey | :06:43. | :06:46. | |
Bloom is an Independent. Timothy Kirkhope is a Conservative. Andrew | :06:47. | :06:50. | |
Brons represents the British National Party, and Rebecca Taylor | :06:51. | :06:54. | |
is another Liberal Democrat. They each represent the whole region and | :06:55. | :06:57. | |
when you vote, it's for a party rather than an individual candidate. | :06:58. | :07:03. | |
So what do MEPs actually do for us? James Vincent's been finding out. | :07:04. | :07:13. | |
From Yorkshire, to Europe. These six of the MEPs that represent us in the | :07:14. | :07:17. | |
European Parliament. But does anybody know what they are or what | :07:18. | :07:22. | |
they do? Let's be honest, when most people are making decisions on | :07:23. | :07:26. | |
Europe it is Tenerife or Malaga. But this may we are sending our | :07:27. | :07:34. | |
politicians to Brussels. Do you know what an MEP is? A member of | :07:35. | :07:38. | |
Parliament. But for where? I don't know. I've no idea. It is a member | :07:39. | :07:47. | |
of Parliament. But for where? European. There are six Yorkshire | :07:48. | :07:51. | |
MEPs. There are 73 for the whole of the UK. In total there are 766 for | :07:52. | :08:01. | |
the whole of Europe. They serve over 500,000 `` over 500 million people | :08:02. | :08:07. | |
across the continent. One of the big questions is in or out, are we | :08:08. | :08:12. | |
better together all on our own? In or out, should we be in Europe or | :08:13. | :08:19. | |
out of Europe? I think we should be out, or in if it did not cost us as | :08:20. | :08:25. | |
much. I think we pay over the odds. You for coming out? Yes. I will take | :08:26. | :08:31. | |
Brussels sprouts. I want you to get Brussels sprouts and put it back in. | :08:32. | :08:39. | |
Shall we stay in or out? Out. Should we be in or out? In. Has it been a | :08:40. | :08:48. | |
good thing for us? Yes, but long`term it will be better. The | :08:49. | :08:53. | |
Parliament has reformed fish stocks, farming and the financial sector but | :08:54. | :08:55. | |
one of the most popular things it has done is put a cap on the costs | :08:56. | :09:00. | |
of using your mobile phone abroad. It has cut the cost of chatting on | :09:01. | :09:05. | |
holiday. I will phone you back, I in the middle of something. Where you | :09:06. | :09:10. | |
`` whether you like sprouts or not, everyone will soon get to have their | :09:11. | :09:15. | |
say on Brussels. I look forward to seeing those | :09:16. | :09:17. | |
sprouts on your expenses! Well, over the course of the next few weeks, | :09:18. | :09:21. | |
we'll be speaking to the party leaders ahead of the European and | :09:22. | :09:24. | |
local elections in May. Today the UK Independence Party launched their | :09:25. | :09:27. | |
campaign in Sheffield. Our Political Editor, Len Tingle, caught up with | :09:28. | :09:32. | |
their leader, Nigel Farage. It was not by accident that Nigel | :09:33. | :09:35. | |
Farage chose Sheffield to unveil the poster that is going to launch their | :09:36. | :09:39. | |
campaign across the country. That is because he believes that even here | :09:40. | :09:43. | |
in Labour's heartlands they can pick up enough votes that will eventually | :09:44. | :09:46. | |
give them more than the onesie they already have in the European | :09:47. | :09:51. | |
Parliament. And the evidence for that, he says, is because in the two | :09:52. | :09:55. | |
by`elections in Rotherham and Barnsley since the last general | :09:56. | :09:58. | |
election, UKIP has come second both times. We have the biggest, most | :09:59. | :10:04. | |
professional campaign this party has ever fought. That is not surprising | :10:05. | :10:09. | |
because in the crowd today was Barnsley multimillionaire Paul | :10:10. | :10:12. | |
Sykes, whose money is paying for this poster campaign. But can UKIP, | :10:13. | :10:16. | |
with its anti`immigration policies, really take the votes it needs in | :10:17. | :10:23. | |
staunchly Labour areas like this? We will transform and change the whole | :10:24. | :10:26. | |
national debate in this country, particularly here in Yorkshire. The | :10:27. | :10:32. | |
majority of seats in Westminster are held by Labour MPs. At the moment, | :10:33. | :10:35. | |
Miliband is holding a position where he is saying if he becomes prime | :10:36. | :10:39. | |
minister he will not give us a referendum. We will put maximum | :10:40. | :10:42. | |
pressure on Labour in this part of the world. But can UKIP regain pride | :10:43. | :10:50. | |
`` credibility after its high profile parting with its | :10:51. | :10:53. | |
increasingly eccentric Yorkshire MEP Godfrey Bloom. You have checked the | :10:54. | :11:00. | |
colour of people's faces, disgraceful! It was unfortunate. We | :11:01. | :11:07. | |
have Jane Collins, who became known in the Barnsley by`election where | :11:08. | :11:09. | |
from no where she came second. We have an Asian businessman second. A | :11:10. | :11:15. | |
guy that grew up in Bradford, has been successful and is very | :11:16. | :11:19. | |
passionate about our cause. I think we are putting forward a good team | :11:20. | :11:24. | |
of people. The UKIP top brush `` brass launch across the country this | :11:25. | :11:29. | |
week, confident they will grab half the six seats up for grabss in the | :11:30. | :11:35. | |
region at next month's elections. In other news now, and newspaper | :11:36. | :11:38. | |
adverts have been published to encourage victims of the late Jimmy | :11:39. | :11:41. | |
Savile to apply for compensation. So far more than 140 people have come | :11:42. | :11:44. | |
forward, who claim they were assaulted by the disgraced Leeds | :11:45. | :11:48. | |
presenter. The ads were ordered by the High Court, which has sanctioned | :11:49. | :11:51. | |
a compensation scheme, with payments capped at ?60,000. Those who come | :11:52. | :11:57. | |
forward will have to prove what contact they had with him. | :11:58. | :12:01. | |
Postmortem tests are being carried out on the bodies of a man and | :12:02. | :12:05. | |
woman, found dead at a house in Worksop. Police were called to | :12:06. | :12:08. | |
Hardwick Road East yesterday morning. A 28`year`old man is being | :12:09. | :12:11. | |
questioned on suspicion of murdering the couple, who are believed to be | :12:12. | :12:14. | |
his parents. Neighbours say the residents were a Polish couple who | :12:15. | :12:18. | |
lived with their son. He is being treated in hospital. | :12:19. | :12:22. | |
Care workers in Doncaster are to stage a further two`week strike in a | :12:23. | :12:25. | |
row over pay and conditions. Unison members will walk out in May for 14 | :12:26. | :12:29. | |
days after talks ended without an agreement being reached. It's the | :12:30. | :12:36. | |
latest in a series of strikes. The workers claim their employer ` Care | :12:37. | :12:40. | |
UK ` wants to cut wages by up to ?7,000 a year. Care UK says it's | :12:41. | :12:44. | |
pledged to protect the basic levels of pay. A South Yorkshire charity | :12:45. | :12:50. | |
which cares for abandoned cats says there's no excuse for people who | :12:51. | :12:54. | |
dump kittens. It's after a litter of newborns was discovered in a bin in | :12:55. | :12:58. | |
Sheffield. Luckily, they were rescued by a passer`by. They're now | :12:59. | :13:02. | |
being cared for by the Sheffield Cats Shelter in Broomhall. But | :13:03. | :13:05. | |
workers there say cases like this are becoming all too common. Kate | :13:06. | :13:21. | |
Bradbrook reports. Just six weeks old and crying for | :13:22. | :13:25. | |
their mother. These tiny bundles of fluff are some of the newest | :13:26. | :13:29. | |
arrivals here at the Sheffield Cats Shelter. They may look healthy | :13:30. | :13:34. | |
enough, but after being dumped in a dustbin they are lucky to be alive. | :13:35. | :13:41. | |
If they had gone another 12 hours or more, I doubt that we would have | :13:42. | :13:45. | |
been able to save them. It was a cold night that night and they can't | :13:46. | :13:51. | |
go that long. They were so young. They would have died, definitely. | :13:52. | :13:56. | |
They are now being treated for cat flu, which, much like the human | :13:57. | :14:01. | |
equivalent, causes itchy eyes and runny noses. But the good news is | :14:02. | :14:04. | |
today is the day they meet their foster mum. She will look after them | :14:05. | :14:10. | |
until they are old enough to be adopted. These five are going to | :14:11. | :14:14. | |
need quite a lot of care, because they are quite poorly and they have | :14:15. | :14:18. | |
no money. It will be every three or four hours with medication and | :14:19. | :14:22. | |
trying to get them to eat and fluids down them. Hopefully then have them | :14:23. | :14:30. | |
until they are about 13 weeks old. As Ruby and her brothers and sisters | :14:31. | :14:34. | |
start their new life, many others may not be so lucky. The message | :14:35. | :14:39. | |
from stuff here is for owners to get their animals spayed so this story | :14:40. | :14:47. | |
is not repeated. They are so cute! I could hear even | :14:48. | :14:53. | |
the male cameraman commentingBefore 7:00pm, you don't need us to tell | :14:54. | :14:57. | |
you that God's own county is a work of art. ! But now there's proof ` as | :14:58. | :15:01. | |
a new exhibition celebrates the famous artists inspired by our | :15:02. | :15:10. | |
coastline, countryside and cities. Sport now. It is always said that | :15:11. | :15:14. | |
Easter weekend decides things, but that is not always the case, is it? | :15:15. | :15:18. | |
It is crunch time. In football, after a busy bank holiday weekend, | :15:19. | :15:21. | |
we still don't know for certain which of our teams will be promoted | :15:22. | :15:25. | |
or relegated. Some did find out that they're going nowhere for now, | :15:26. | :15:28. | |
whilst others took a step closer to their fate. Ian Bucknell reports. | :15:29. | :15:33. | |
After Jeff Hendrick put Derby in front, Barnsley never looked like | :15:34. | :15:37. | |
getting anything out of the game. It was 2`0 by half`time and the goal | :15:38. | :15:43. | |
was too little too late. The Tykes must win their last two games if | :15:44. | :15:46. | |
they are to have a realistic chance of avoiding the drop. Doncaster can | :15:47. | :15:50. | |
count themselves lucky after Abdoulaye Meite was harshly sent off | :15:51. | :15:56. | |
at Millwall. `` unlucky. They picked up a point for a scoreless draw but | :15:57. | :16:00. | |
are not out of relegation trouble yet. To a man they have shown | :16:01. | :16:05. | |
everyone why I still believe we will stay in this division, because they | :16:06. | :16:09. | |
are a fantastic bunch to work with and they give me everything they | :16:10. | :16:12. | |
have got, every single day and they have a good chance. A big sigh of | :16:13. | :16:16. | |
relief for Huddersfield. Adam Clayton's late strike sealed a 2`1 | :16:17. | :16:19. | |
win at Yeovil and a place in the Championship. York City's revival is | :16:20. | :16:24. | |
almost complete. Keith Lowe scored in their 1`0 win over Bury and the | :16:25. | :16:27. | |
team that looked like relegation fodder at Christmas are now inches | :16:28. | :16:36. | |
away in s play`off place. `` from a play`off place. And finally | :16:37. | :16:38. | |
Chesterfield are closing in on automatic promotion, Doyle got the | :16:39. | :16:41. | |
only goal of the game at Dagenham and the Spireites need just one more | :16:42. | :16:45. | |
win to be almost certain of going up. You can see highlights from all | :16:46. | :16:51. | |
of our teams on the Football League Show, available on the BBC iPlayer. | :16:52. | :16:54. | |
The managing director of the Bradford Bulls has apologised to the | :16:55. | :16:58. | |
fans for what he called the woeful and embarrassing performance of the | :16:59. | :17:00. | |
team yesterday. They were beaten 84`6 by Wigan, which was the Bulls' | :17:01. | :17:04. | |
worst ever Super League defeat. Steve Ferres said it was "without | :17:05. | :17:07. | |
doubt the worst performance I have seen by a Super League side". At the | :17:08. | :17:12. | |
other end of the scale, the Leeds Rhinos are top of the table after | :17:13. | :17:15. | |
back`to`back wins over Easter. They beat Salford 28`4 yesterday. | :17:16. | :17:18. | |
Castleford are second, while Huddersfield have moved up to | :17:19. | :17:21. | |
seventh after both boasted a perfect record Easter record as well. And | :17:22. | :17:27. | |
you can see highlights from all 14 matches over the Easter weekend on | :17:28. | :17:30. | |
the Super League Show, which is available now on the BBC iPlayer. | :17:31. | :17:38. | |
It's been a rain`affected day up at Headingley, which has slowed | :17:39. | :17:40. | |
Yorkshire's progress somewhat. It's day three of their game against | :17:41. | :17:43. | |
Northants who, having been made to follow`on, are 118`2 in their second | :17:44. | :17:52. | |
innings. `` they were 145`4 a few minutes ago. Paul assures me it's a | :17:53. | :17:55. | |
better forecast for tomorrow so hopefully Yorkshire can wrap up the | :17:56. | :17:59. | |
win. Have you managed to get any cricket caught yet? | :18:00. | :18:04. | |
With just over a couple of months to go till the Tour de France starts | :18:05. | :18:07. | |
here in Yorkshire, the best riders in the world are following in our | :18:08. | :18:11. | |
footsteps, Amy, by cycling the route. No, not yet. One of the teams | :18:12. | :18:15. | |
to watch is Giant`Shimano, which has riding the second stage today. And | :18:16. | :18:18. | |
we know all about those hills, don't we, Harry? Our Tour de France | :18:19. | :18:21. | |
Correspondent Matt Slater has spent the day with them. He's now at | :18:22. | :18:25. | |
Weetwood Hall in Leeds, where they've been holding a press | :18:26. | :18:28. | |
conference. So Matt, what did they make of the route? | :18:29. | :18:36. | |
Actually, I am in the car park outside we would hall where the | :18:37. | :18:40. | |
mechanics of team Giant`Shimano are getting ready to work on the bikes. | :18:41. | :18:44. | |
After a pretty challenging day for the team. They are the first of the | :18:45. | :18:49. | |
big teams to come over and have a proper look at the two Yorkshire | :18:50. | :18:52. | |
stages of the Grand Depart and it is fair to say they found it pretty | :18:53. | :18:56. | |
tough. Their big star is Marcel Kittel, who burst onto the scene | :18:57. | :19:00. | |
last year, winning four stages at the tour, including the first and | :19:01. | :19:05. | |
last day. That marks him out as Mark Cavendish's biggest rival for the | :19:06. | :19:08. | |
first stage into Harrogate, where the prizes the yellow jersey. Marcel | :19:09. | :19:14. | |
Kittel did not like Jenkin Road and had some interesting things to say | :19:15. | :19:18. | |
about the state of Yorkshire's roads. I think the roads are in some | :19:19. | :19:24. | |
parts very dangerous for appellate on of the Tour de France. On the | :19:25. | :19:37. | |
descent, when you ride through lonely roads in the middle of | :19:38. | :19:40. | |
nowhere, they are very narrow one very small with stonewalls on both | :19:41. | :19:44. | |
sides. There will be a nervous Tour de France Balaton fighting for the | :19:45. | :19:52. | |
yellow jersey. They can be very dangerous situations. Wanted he make | :19:53. | :19:59. | |
of Yorkshire customs? We heard him talk about Christ done walls, he was | :20:00. | :20:05. | |
alarmed by how close they were `` dry stone walls. Also a chance to | :20:06. | :20:11. | |
explore stereotypes. We got back a bit of German sense of humour! Has | :20:12. | :20:18. | |
anyone called you love, pet, or dock, and have you been offended? | :20:19. | :20:24. | |
No, not yet. What other strange things have you noticed about | :20:25. | :20:30. | |
Yorkshire? Any strange things? The raindrops came from the side! There | :20:31. | :20:38. | |
is one of the bit of news, that is rather's Ben Swift, we were hoping | :20:39. | :20:41. | |
he would be lining up in the Tour de France. It looks like he has been | :20:42. | :20:45. | |
picked by Team Sky at the Giro d'Italia, which means we have to get | :20:46. | :20:51. | |
against `` we have to get behind Mark Cavendish because he has | :20:52. | :20:57. | |
Yorkshire links. Jenkin Road was a killer. We did it like the pros! A | :20:58. | :21:04. | |
breeze. There we are, going up! That is us! 2.3 miles an hour, I think. | :21:05. | :21:10. | |
And we see the pros going up now? Do we have them? Never mind. No, we | :21:11. | :21:15. | |
haven't, but we were quicker than them. There we are, look, we were | :21:16. | :21:19. | |
quicker than they were! That was our last day. You are being funny, but | :21:20. | :21:25. | |
never mind! Now, the Tour de France isn't all about elite riders and | :21:26. | :21:29. | |
gruelling climbs. In the run up to Le Grand Depart, a cultural festival | :21:30. | :21:32. | |
is also taking place, called the Yorkshire Festival. One of the | :21:33. | :21:35. | |
highlights is an exhibition at the Mercer Gallery in Harrogate, which | :21:36. | :21:38. | |
showcases some of the best known Yorkshire artists. The collection | :21:39. | :21:40. | |
includes JMW Turner's familiar landscapes, Atkinson Grimshaw's | :21:41. | :21:42. | |
moonlit Victorian scenes, and rarely`seen work by Bradford`born | :21:43. | :21:45. | |
David Hockney. Faith Wilkinson has been for a look. | :21:46. | :21:55. | |
The beauty of Yorkshire's landscape reportedly moved the great British | :21:56. | :22:02. | |
painter JMW Turner to tears. His work is currently on display in | :22:03. | :22:05. | |
Harrogate as part of a new exhibition which demonstrates the | :22:06. | :22:08. | |
influence of Yorkshire on some of the world's finest artists. The | :22:09. | :22:14. | |
great draw, particularly for the landscape artists like Turner at the | :22:15. | :22:18. | |
end of the 18th century, was this tremendous diversity of the | :22:19. | :22:22. | |
landscape. You've got on the one hand where the Industrial Revolution | :22:23. | :22:25. | |
began, you've got this fantastic coastline, you've got Staithes, | :22:26. | :22:27. | |
Robin Hood Bay and Scarborough, the Dales and the great cities and it | :22:28. | :22:31. | |
rolls on and on with engaging subjects for artists, whatever they | :22:32. | :22:39. | |
work in. This collection cleverly places past masters and contemporary | :22:40. | :22:44. | |
artists together. Moonlit scenesby Atkinson Grimshaw sit alongside iPad | :22:45. | :22:45. | |
art by David Hockney. It's something to be very proud of. | :22:46. | :23:06. | |
It shows the diversity of the county and it makes people like Elwell and | :23:07. | :23:13. | |
others stand out really well. They haven't decayed with time, I think. | :23:14. | :23:17. | |
It substantiates their skill and talent. The range of artists they've | :23:18. | :23:24. | |
covered is just amazing and the work is of such high quality. It is not | :23:25. | :23:28. | |
the bottom rung of the products of those particular artists. I am | :23:29. | :23:32. | |
really impressed, it is food for the eyes for me. Fantastic. I like the | :23:33. | :23:35. | |
paintings that don't have glass on them because the painting comes to | :23:36. | :23:42. | |
life. The exhibition is part of the Yorkshire Festival, a programme of | :23:43. | :23:45. | |
cultural events ahead of the Tour de France in July. It is on display at | :23:46. | :23:49. | |
the Mercer Gallery in Harrogate until October. | :23:50. | :23:58. | |
Fantastic works of art. We will point you in the right direction of | :23:59. | :24:01. | |
some of the other events taking place over the next 100 days. The | :24:02. | :24:07. | |
most `` the most important thing is a decent day at Headingley. I can | :24:08. | :24:11. | |
almost promise you a full day's plate, there might be one or two | :24:12. | :24:16. | |
showers later. A nice day at Headingley. Let me show you pictures | :24:17. | :24:19. | |
from the glorious bank holiday weekend. | :24:20. | :24:24. | |
That was bumped and cliffs. This is a long shot towards Ingleborough | :24:25. | :24:30. | |
hill, beautiful. Lovely colours. We don't show Staithes that much, but | :24:31. | :24:40. | |
that is lovely. Keep your pictures coming in. A big improvement coming | :24:41. | :24:45. | |
through for tomorrow. It may be a great start in places but there will | :24:46. | :24:48. | |
be warm sunshine developing. This weather front should hold off until | :24:49. | :24:53. | |
tomorrow evening and tomorrow night. At Headingley, it should be a much | :24:54. | :24:58. | |
better prospect. It could not be much worse. You can see the cloud on | :24:59. | :25:02. | |
today's satellite picture. It gave quite a bit of rain across northern | :25:03. | :25:06. | |
and western areas. It has brightened up. It triggered sharp showers this | :25:07. | :25:12. | |
evening. At least it is brighter. Overnight the showers moved | :25:13. | :25:14. | |
northwards. We will be left with low cloud and missed. Perhaps the odd | :25:15. | :25:20. | |
shower drifting up from the south. Lowest temperatures around eight | :25:21. | :25:26. | |
Celsius. The sun will rise at 5:48am. | :25:27. | :25:32. | |
A slow start in places. A bit of low cloud, missed, but the cloud will | :25:33. | :25:42. | |
break up. There will be decent sunny spells coming through. There will be | :25:43. | :25:47. | |
sharp showers developing later in the afternoon. Very hit and miss. | :25:48. | :25:52. | |
Many places will stay dry until later tomorrow evening. Let's look | :25:53. | :25:55. | |
at the top temperatures. A dreadful day along the coast. 13 or 14 | :25:56. | :26:03. | |
Celsius in Scarborough. Inland, 16 or possibly 17 degrees across | :26:04. | :26:06. | |
eastern parts of South Yorkshire. That is 63 degrees Fahrenheit in old | :26:07. | :26:11. | |
money. A wet Wednesday night. Thursday, a great, damp start, | :26:12. | :26:15. | |
brightening up later with sunny intervals and one or two showers. It | :26:16. | :26:21. | |
is nice to see you back, you look refreshed. Thank you, a week in | :26:22. | :26:24. | |
Bridlington has done me the world of good. Enjoy the rest of your | :26:25. | :26:26. | |
evening. Good night. Some people don't think real change | :26:27. | :26:51. | |
in Europe is possible. Some people don't think real change | :26:52. | :26:56. | |
is necessary. Some people don't think | :26:57. | :26:59. | |
it's worth fighting for. But we want to make Europe work | :27:00. | :27:03. | |
for Britain, and give you the final say | :27:04. | :27:06. | |
with an in-out referendum in 2017. have made Britain's economy | :27:07. | :27:11. | |
stronger and more competitive. a record number of people in work. | :27:12. | :27:16. | |
And we're predicted to be the fastest-growing economy | :27:17. | :27:21. | |
in the G7 this year. We're working through | :27:22. | :27:25. | |
our long-term economic plan at home and we'll work through our plan | :27:26. | :27:29. | |
to deliver real change in Europe too. David Cameron, backed by | :27:30. | :27:34. | |
a strong team of Conservative MEPs, has taken action | :27:35. | :27:37. | |
to stand up for Britain. Vetoing a new EU fiscal treaty | :27:38. | :27:40. | |
that didn't guarantee | :27:41. | :27:44. |
