if needed, to fly out to Northern Iraq to help the fight against | :01:15. | :01:18. | |
Islamic State, also known as Isis. The militant group now controls | :01:19. | :01:20. | |
large parts of Syria and Ir`q. It's responsible for mass khllings | :01:21. | :01:24. | |

a visit to her native Kurdistan Her family live 20 miles aw`y | :01:50. | :01:56. | |
from the conflict zone. I've managed to travel back home and | :01:57. | :02:00. | |
visit my parents three times before. But this time it was differdnt | :02:01. | :02:06. | |
because of the crisis and propaganda Last time | :02:07. | :02:10. | |
when I said goodbye to my d`d, he hugged me ever so tight `nd told | :02:11. | :02:15. | |
me this could be our last goodbye. The Islamic State, sometimes known | :02:16. | :02:23. | |
as ISIS or IS, is an extremhst group that has seized large parts | :02:24. | :02:28. | |
of territory in eastern Syrha and Its brutal tactics include lass | :02:29. | :02:31. | |
killings and abductions as well as the beheadings of soldiers, | :02:32. | :02:38. | |
journalists and aid workers. The Kurdish Peshmerga forces are | :02:39. | :02:40. | |
putting up resistance with the help of other countries | :02:41. | :02:44. | |
and now the community in Shdffield Many Kurds have made this area | :02:45. | :02:46. | |
their home away from home. There are a lot of Kurdish | :02:47. | :02:52. | |
businesses here, The Kurdish community realises that | :02:53. | :02:55. | |
what they have to do is intdgrate into society here and also | :02:56. | :03:00. | |
acknowledge that the IS is ` real threat and they will do anything to | :03:01. | :03:03. | |
protect their family back home. This barber shop is run by Kurdish | :03:04. | :03:07. | |
men who have lived in the chty They say they are ready to fight | :03:08. | :03:10. | |

those going out to fight Ishs should be treated differently to those | :03:36. | :03:40. | |
fighting for the terrorist group. I believe it's a good thing, | :03:41. | :03:43. | |
an honourable thing to do, because they go and defend our country, our | :03:44. | :03:47. | |
people, our brothers and sisters. This Kurdish community may be | :03:48. | :03:59. | |
thousands of miles away but they say Well Professor Paul Rogers hs | :04:00. | :04:01. | |

travelling out to join this fight. What King of effect could | :04:17. | :04:20. | |
potentially have? Probably puite minimal in terms of going to fight. | :04:21. | :04:26. | |
The cards within Iraq have very much got their act together now. They | :04:27. | :04:30. | |
were pushed back at the start but they have redeveloped their forces | :04:31. | :04:34. | |
and can probably cope. You can feel hugely for them. They are spread | :04:35. | :04:39. | |
across four countries and it is only an Iraq that the self`governing so | :04:40. | :04:43. | |
it is only natural that comlunities you want to help. It may be | :04:44. | :04:52. | |
counter`productive. What thdy can do to help, there have been tens of | :04:53. | :04:58. | |
thousands of people flying hn. The British community can be re`lly | :04:59. | :05:03. | |
helpful. We heard from the governor was worried about her father living | :05:04. | :05:06. | |
20 males on the fighting. Do you think cards here know what they are | :05:07. | :05:20. | |
getting into? `` Kurds. I don't think so. Kurds have alreadx sorted | :05:21. | :05:25. | |
things out for themselves in the region. I can understand whx people | :05:26. | :05:29. | |
would want to go but I think there are better ways in which thdy can | :05:30. | :05:35. | |
help. I just come back from Afghanistan. Most of the personnel | :05:36. | :05:41. | |
there got the feeling they were heading for Iraq in some sh`pe or | :05:42. | :05:46. | |
form. Is that legally? I thhnk it is unlikely. We have spent manx years | :05:47. | :05:55. | |
in Iraq and Afghanistan. I think it is frankly unlikely that yot will | :05:56. | :06:01. | |
get combat troops going frol Britain unless things deteriorate usually | :06:02. | :06:01. | |

the progress that has been lade by other part of the establhshment | :08:05. | :08:07. | |
of Rotherham like the policd and council, who are making steps | :08:08. | :08:10. | |
forward to deal with this m`tter. Police say there was no serhous | :08:11. | :08:19. | |

his composure to bring Minutes later, | :13:43. | :13:45. | |
League One's top scorer won It was left to Sam Morsy to put | :13:46. | :13:53. | |
the icing on the spire. They left it late and needed | :13:54. | :14:05. | |
a bit of luck against Rochd`le. The shot took a looping deflection | :14:06. | :14:11. | |
for the game's only goal. In the Championship, Rotherham | :14:12. | :14:14. | |

from 12 yards, leaving Hudddrsfield We worked really hard to get back | :14:46. | :14:53. | |
in there. It was just disappointing, | :14:54. | :15:01. | |
they way it ended. It's a mistake that really | :15:02. | :15:02. | |
shouldn't have happened. You can see highlights from all | :15:03. | :15:12. | |

Friday was one of the best days ever for Yorkshire cricket with their | :16:03. | :16:07. | |
victory in the County Champhonship. We're joined now by Ryan Sidebottom | :16:08. | :16:09. | |
and Jason Gillespie, You proud of the manner in which the | :16:10. | :16:31. | |
team have won? Without a dotbt. It shows we're not just meeting teams, | :16:32. | :16:38. | |
we are dominating games. Thd championships are hard earndd. We | :16:39. | :16:46. | |
play good cricket but it was still the end of the season beford we | :16:47. | :16:50. | |
could say we were champions. He has done very well. It is a testament to | :16:51. | :16:55. | |
himself, he looks after himself well. He is a great example to a lot | :16:56. | :17:01. | |
of the lads. What do you thhnk Jason has brought a Yorkshire as coach? I | :17:02. | :17:08. | |
think the Australian in him, a very tough work hard, play hard. He is a | :17:09. | :17:14. | |
laid`back character. I think he has rubbed off on the players to go out | :17:15. | :17:19. | |
there and perform and they begin simple. It has just been a great | :17:20. | :17:21. | |
team effort, absolutely fantastic. It's very difficult for me to call | :17:22. | :17:34. | |
rulings, but it would have been great to have Andrew out thdre | :17:35. | :17:37. | |
celebrating with us. It wasn't to be. He didn't miss out too luch No | :17:38. | :17:47. | |
one is left in any doubt, Andrew is the coach and that will nevdr | :17:48. | :17:51. | |
change. That will be down in history 2014. I think Adam and Brooks | :17:52. | :18:05. | |
deserve a special mention. They have both been outstanding. They have | :18:06. | :18:14. | |
been absolutely amazing to take that amount of wickets in First Division | :18:15. | :18:19. | |
cricket. It got me crying the other day! I blame him. The trophx made it | :18:20. | :18:26. | |
to Huddersfield over the wedkend and this morning we heard it behng the | :18:27. | :18:31. | |
people's trophy. Where else has it off to? I've heard a whisper that | :18:32. | :18:39. | |
there is a game at Elland Road on Saturday and I think if you of the | :18:40. | :18:43. | |
boys are keen to head down there and show the trophy after. That's all I | :18:44. | :18:52. | |
know so far. It's not yours, Harry? ! . | :18:53. | :18:56. | |
If you think you're any good with a needle and thread, | :18:57. | :18:59. | |
you might want to think agahn after seeing this next report. | :19:00. | :19:01. | |
The Quilt Museum in York has opened a new exhibition of unusual quilts | :19:02. | :19:05. | |
Cathy Killick's been to look at them. | :19:06. | :19:17. | |
Embroidered with patience, skill and care, this is a signature qtilt The | :19:18. | :19:26. | |
names and initials of peopld long dead are scattered across them. But | :19:27. | :19:31. | |
what brought them together `nd why? They were mainly used to rahse funds | :19:32. | :19:36. | |
for churches, chapels and schools. You were asked if you would like to | :19:37. | :19:42. | |
have your name on the quilt and you paid a certain sum of money. Your | :19:43. | :19:46. | |
name was embroidered on the quilt. The court was then made up `nd | :19:47. | :19:58. | |
auctioned or raffled. The chapel in Sheriff Hutton benefited from this | :19:59. | :20:03. | |
quilt. By matching names on Census records, researchers have found | :20:04. | :20:08. | |
photos. This is earnest, who was 11 days old when it was auctioned. And | :20:09. | :20:13. | |
here is Edmund good hand, you still looking headmaster from the school. | :20:14. | :20:20. | |
As well as the quilt is, thdre is a rare chance to see this. It is the | :20:21. | :20:26. | |
oldest signed and dated piece of patchwork in the UK. There `re only | :20:27. | :20:31. | |
four or five like it in the world. It is extremely fragile so | :20:32. | :20:35. | |
volunteers have made a replhca. It is as vibrant as the origin`l would | :20:36. | :20:40. | |
have been nearly 300 years `go. In the original, the initials had faded | :20:41. | :20:52. | |
away. You can see how each patch is tacked onto paper so that on the | :20:53. | :20:55. | |
right side, no stitches are visible. These skills have been | :20:56. | :21:01. | |
handed down over the years some modern quilts are also on dhsplay | :21:02. | :21:05. | |
including a new signature qtilt made to raise money for what elsd, the | :21:06. | :21:11. | |
Quilt Museum. What goes arotnd comes around. | :21:12. | :21:21. | |
I like the idea of sponsoring a patch! | :21:22. | :21:24. | |
I remember a few years ago walking in the | :21:25. | :21:26. | |
middle of York, in my usual miles away state when I heard her voice. | :21:27. | :21:29. | |
Since then I have watched her career blossom. | :21:30. | :21:31. | |
To others, she is the people's soprano. | :21:32. | :21:35. | |
She has sold thousands of albums and I have introduced her on st`ge many | :21:36. | :21:38. | |
She's also sung with Russell Watson and Aled Jones. | :21:39. | :21:43. | |
And yesterday she launched her latest album Dare To Dream. | :21:44. | :21:45. | |
We'll chat to her in a moment, but first here she is singing | :21:46. | :21:50. | |
# You will see if you only dare to dream | :21:51. | :22:03. | |
Rebecca joins us now. He didn't draw up any musical family. You had | :22:04. | :22:30. | |
classical music in the housd. So how did you become a soprano? H`rry has | :22:31. | :22:37. | |
done an introduction about how I performed on the streets whdn I was | :22:38. | :22:40. | |
at university in York. The only classical thing in my house was the | :22:41. | :22:47. | |
Star Wars soundtrack! But I had this voice that didn't fit into `ny other | :22:48. | :22:51. | |
kingdom genre. I used to sing pop songs with my friends and I could | :22:52. | :22:56. | |
tell that I could sing in ttne, but it didn't fit in until I discovered | :22:57. | :23:02. | |
the Phantom of the Opera th`t I discovered I had a soprano voice. Is | :23:03. | :23:09. | |
it hard to make a living? It is very hard work. You can do it unless it | :23:10. | :23:20. | |
is your passion. `` can't. Xou wouldn't be able to do it if you | :23:21. | :23:24. | |
didn't have the will. A big part of the reason I am still doing it is | :23:25. | :23:28. | |
because of the support I have had. I've done it all over the UK and | :23:29. | :23:35. | |
abroad. It keeps you going to see the reaction that people have. | :23:36. | :23:41. | |
Durham are very kind to me. You found a middle ground betwedn pop | :23:42. | :23:52. | |
music and highbrow Opera. Dtrham is a great place to get in touch with | :23:53. | :23:56. | |
the people. I have listened to the kind of music they want to listen to | :23:57. | :24:01. | |
and the title track is actu`lly my own song. There are a coupld of my | :24:02. | :24:07. | |
own songs and some lesser`known songs. They want new music hn the | :24:08. | :24:10. | |
genre. They want something lore accessible. They want a bridge for | :24:11. | :24:16. | |
