Aussies and Americans top the list as the county attracts a record | :00:00. | :00:09. | |
We look at where they are spending their money. | :00:10. | :00:13. | |

Friday's Look North. Tourism bosses | :00:47. | :00:48. | |
in Yorkshire have something to smile And it's got nothing to do with | :00:49. | :00:50. | |
the weather. Figures out today show there were | :00:51. | :00:53. | |
a record number of foreign visitors to Yorkshire | :00:54. | :00:55. | |
last summer and that's before The latest tourism figures | :00:56. | :00:58. | |
for Yorkshire show record breaking The figures, from Visit Britain, | :00:59. | :01:03. | |
look at July, There were 168,000 holiday visits | :01:04. | :01:06. | |
to Yorkshire in that time. It's a record high and up 38% | :01:07. | :01:12. | |
on the previous Summer. When it comes to overseas visitors | :01:13. | :01:17. | |
they spent ?68 million And the figures show we're | :01:18. | :01:20. | |
very popular with Australians. And they were followed by American | :01:21. | :01:27. | |
tourists. In fact, those two groups alone | :01:28. | :01:31. | |
spent ?28 million in the region. But as Danni Hewson reports, | :01:32. | :01:34. | |
it's not all good news. It is no surprise the city of York | :01:35. | :01:47. | |
approves the biggest draw for foreign visitors. Last year, numbers | :01:48. | :01:53. | |
choosing to four key for its culture saw a major and the lucrative bump. | :01:54. | :01:58. | |
At trendy hoteliers have been watching closely. We seem to be seen | :01:59. | :02:03. | |
Americans coming back now and Europeans, what more Italians and | :02:04. | :02:07. | |
French people staying with us know. Do you think the tour had an | :02:08. | :02:11. | |
impact? At the time it had a very big impact. We had telephone call to | :02:12. | :02:16. | |
three days after the event from a French family who had seen is on the | :02:17. | :02:20. | |
television and they are coming to stay with us at the end of this | :02:21. | :02:25. | |
month. 12 months, all this was just talk. But was enough to kick`start | :02:26. | :02:30. | |
the world's interest in Yorkshire. Not just its heritage, but its | :02:31. | :02:34. | |
countryside. But it was not all good news. The number of foreign visitors | :02:35. | :02:40. | |
raised `` dendrites but was offset by a fall in their thousands from | :02:41. | :02:50. | |
domestic tourist. This weekend, attractions at the walled garden | :02:51. | :02:58. | |
linkup to help each other. Profits at this chip shop are up from last | :02:59. | :03:03. | |
year. Many of those dining are British. That is not just about the | :03:04. | :03:07. | |
individual business any more. It is about the town and how we can | :03:08. | :03:13. | |
promote ourselves as a vibrant attraction was in Yorkshire and the | :03:14. | :03:18. | |
country. And that is the key. Last year set the stage for 2014, his | :03:19. | :03:24. | |
figures we expect to be through the roof. But what about those that | :03:25. | :03:26. | |
missed out your Mac there are a lot missed out your Mac there are a lot | :03:27. | :03:31. | |
of things that have to happen. We have to get a customer service high | :03:32. | :03:34. | |
and keep investing in businesses. We have to make sure that people | :03:35. | :03:40. | |
capitalise on the tour of Yorkshire and that it will go to the places | :03:41. | :03:44. | |
where the true difference did not call. We had to get together over | :03:45. | :03:49. | |
the next few months, do a big marketing campaign for Yorkshire. | :03:50. | :03:54. | |
Our profile has never been higher and we must capitalise on that. It | :03:55. | :03:55. | |
appeared as on the map and the appeared as on the map and the | :03:56. | :04:02. | |
Chequers to keep us there. `` it put us on the map and the trick is to | :04:03. | :04:04. | |
keep us there. Next tonight, a graffiti vandal has | :04:05. | :04:10. | |
been sentenced to 18 months in prison for causing widespread damage | :04:11. | :04:13. | |
to South Yorkshire's railways. Simon Sunderland daubed graffiti | :04:14. | :04:15. | |
around the rail network in Sheffield, | :04:16. | :04:17. | |
Rotherham and Chesterfield, Police say they have been trying | :04:18. | :04:18. | |
to catch Bloodaxe for five years. Today, Simon Sunderland, | :04:19. | :04:22. | |
the man behind the paint can, You may recognise some | :04:23. | :04:24. | |
of Sunderland's earlier work. In the 90s, the tag "Fista" was all | :04:25. | :04:27. | |
over South Yorkshire at railways, At that time he was called Britain's | :04:28. | :04:30. | |
most prolific graffiti vandal. He was jailed for five years | :04:31. | :04:44. | |
in 1996, his sentence later cut to I think it is generally two fingers | :04:45. | :04:51. | |
up to authority, if I can put it In a rail environment, | :04:52. | :04:56. | |
it is against the law. It's trespassing on Network Rail | :04:57. | :04:59. | |
land. It is | :05:00. | :05:00. | |
a dangerous environment to work Reported graffiti in our part of the | :05:01. | :05:02. | |
world has actually dipped slightly. In 2012`13, | :05:03. | :05:07. | |
there were 79 tags reported, In the last year, there were | :05:08. | :05:08. | |
66 reported cases of repeated. Important to remember that this | :05:09. | :05:18. | |
is only what has been reported. Of course, there is graffiti all | :05:19. | :05:24. | |
over South Yorkshire's railways. British Transport Police says | :05:25. | :05:29. | |
the Bloodaxe tag on its own cost The cost of cleaning that is | :05:30. | :05:32. | |
passed on to the passenger. The cost to Network Rail to clean | :05:33. | :05:36. | |
this runs to the tens When the operation started in 2009, | :05:37. | :05:39. | |
I had an estimate from Network Art or vandalism is | :05:40. | :05:46. | |
the usual argument. It is pretty clear what side | :05:47. | :05:55. | |
of that debate Later, we are live at Wembley, which | :05:56. | :06:16. | |
is all set for the old Yorkshire final. The players have had a | :06:17. | :06:21. | |
training session inside, we'll be hearing from them and some of the | :06:22. | :06:22. | |
fans. The Chief Constable of South | :06:23. | :06:26. | |
Yorkshire Police , David Crompton, has accused the BBC of a | :06:27. | :06:38. | |
cover`up over its reporting of the He's reported to have made | :06:39. | :06:40. | |
the comments to the Chair of the Home Affairs Select Committee | :06:41. | :06:45. | |
and MP, Keith Vaz. Mr Vaz wants to know how the BBC | :06:46. | :06:47. | |
knew to be at Sir Cliff's home in Berkshire | :06:48. | :06:51. | |
when it was searched last Thursday. He says Mr Crompton's claims are | :06:52. | :06:53. | |
a matter of deep concern. The BBC's Director`General Lord Hall | :06:54. | :06:55. | |
says his journalists acted Sir Cliff is being investigated over | :06:56. | :06:58. | |
an allegation of a sex attack Both Lord Hall and Mr Crompton are | :06:59. | :07:02. | |
to be questioned further next month. The Home Secretary Theresa May has | :07:03. | :07:06. | |
warned South Yorkshire's Police Commissioner Shaun Wright she'll cap | :07:07. | :07:09. | |
the grants she's awarded to the force for legal bills | :07:10. | :07:12. | |
at the Hillsborough inquests. Costs for eight former police | :07:13. | :07:15. | |
officers including David Duckenfield, the match commander | :07:16. | :07:16. | |
on the day of the 1989 disaster, The Home Secretary says the level | :07:17. | :07:20. | |
of reimbursement for the police must not exceed the | :07:21. | :07:25. | |
sum being given to the families of the 96 Liverpool fans who died in | :07:26. | :07:29. | |
the crush at the FA Cup semi`final. The family of a Bradford man who | :07:30. | :07:38. | |
was stabbed to death two years ago have made a fresh appeal for | :07:39. | :07:41. | |
information to find his killers. Clement Desmier, who was also known | :07:42. | :07:44. | |
as Butch, was found dead at In a statement his family said they | :07:45. | :07:47. | |
were struggling with the fact that Detectives believe his killers | :07:48. | :07:53. | |
have links to the local community. We appeal to anybody who has any | :07:54. | :07:59. | |
information to come forward. I'm still particularly keen to | :08:00. | :08:02. | |
identify and trace the man who was seen with Butch | :08:03. | :08:04. | |
the day before his murder at 4:30pm in the afternoon, entering Butch's | :08:05. | :08:10. | |
house together with him. And also the people who were seen | :08:11. | :08:13. | |

on the 268 bus between Cleckheaton The most recent assault was | :08:39. | :08:41. | |
on Tuesday. A unique collection | :08:42. | :08:46. | |
of medical records from West Yorkshire's mental institutions | :08:47. | :08:48. | |
has been recognised by the United Nations, as an irreplaceable | :08:49. | :08:51. | |
source of social history. More than 5,000 photographs | :08:52. | :08:56. | |

we have some records out Today, the McDonagh brothers | :09:37. | :09:38. | |
from Selby are here in Wakefield to find out about their grandmother, | :09:39. | :09:42. | |
who was one such patient. You have the name at the top, | :09:43. | :09:48. | |
and the occupation there, when she She did not want her | :09:49. | :09:51. | |
photograph taken. She was admitted to | :09:52. | :09:59. | |
the hospital with what is now She suffered from a number | :10:00. | :10:10. | |
of illnesses and died there at the age of 41, something Kevin | :10:11. | :10:15. | |
and Ian were unaware of. Never seen a photo of her, | :10:16. | :10:28. | |
so it's a bit emotional, really. But it is excellent that | :10:29. | :10:30. | |
the records are there. We have just been reading through | :10:31. | :10:33. | |
them and I now I feel that I have There are nine miles worth | :10:34. | :10:40. | |

the public. These records have now been | :10:45. | :10:46. | |
recognised by UNESCO as an irreplaceable source | :10:47. | :10:49. | |
of medical and social history. A lot of people from England come | :10:50. | :10:53. | |
to work, but also internationally. We have academics as well | :10:54. | :10:59. | |
as family historians. It is good | :11:00. | :11:01. | |
for it to get that recognition, that For this family it has been | :11:02. | :11:05. | |
an emotional journey, It is hoped others will now | :11:06. | :11:09. | |
be able to do the same. Sheffield's Kell Brook gets a civic | :11:10. | :11:20. | |

year, three games they have lost. They have made six horses and all | :12:50. | :12:53. | |
since the last lifted the trophy in 1999. There is not that much that we | :12:54. | :13:01. | |
get from in preparation. The reality is that there is not that much wrong | :13:02. | :13:06. | |
we get `` we do wrong on game day. We just get beaten by the better | :13:07. | :13:10. | |
team. We are looking forward to getting out on the field and | :13:11. | :13:15. | |

in Australia? They certainly do. There is a lot of people that will | :15:58. | :16:01. | |
be getting up at midnight to watch this, including my boys. It is a | :16:02. | :16:09. | |
little close to call. What will get leads over the link think the XP is | :16:10. | :16:17. | |
