Tonight: Hopes are high that the former Majestyk nightclub in Leeds | :00:10. | :00:19. | |
The Grade II listed buildling had just undergone refurbishment. The | :00:20. | :00:37. | |
fire service described it as a massive incident and all ro`ds | :00:38. | :00:57. | |

Hopes are high that the former Majestyk nightclub in Leeds | :01:19. | :01:21. | |
can be saved, despite the fhre which ripped through its roof last night | :01:22. | :01:24. | |
The Grade II listed buildling had just undergone refurbishment. The | :01:25. | :01:28. | |
fire service described it as a massive incident and all ro`ds | :01:29. | :01:31. | |
around it were closed causing chaos for commuters. While some are | :01:32. | :01:35. | |
re`opening tonight they may have to close for more work tomorrow. Ian | :01:36. | :01:38. | |
Rush hour this morning was horrendous so the emergency services | :01:39. | :01:53. | |
were very keen to get the roads open by tea`time and they have done that. | :01:54. | :02:00. | |
This was a logistical nightlare for the emergency services last night. | :02:01. | :02:06. | |
This building is right in the middle of Leeds city centre so it was a | :02:07. | :02:10. | |
logistical nightmare. If ovdr my shoulder you can see the extent of | :02:11. | :02:13. | |
the damage which became app`rent this morning. We have some pictures | :02:14. | :02:20. | |
from the Fire Service is short time ago which shows the extent of the | :02:21. | :02:24. | |
damage inside the building. You can see just how bad it is. The | :02:25. | :02:31. | |
devastation is horrendous inside. Here is the story of last nhght | :02:32. | :02:45. | |
Flames light up the night sky in Leeds city centre as firefighters | :02:46. | :02:48. | |
battled to save one of the lost iconic buildings in the citx. Some | :02:49. | :02:54. | |
caught the drama on their mobile phones. Fire crews worked through | :02:55. | :02:57. | |
the night to bring the blazd under control in a busy part of thme close | :02:58. | :03:01. | |
to the railway station, hotdls, restaurants and shops. | :03:02. | :03:08. | |
It is sad to see such an icon go up into flames. | :03:09. | :03:10. | |
It is sad to see such an iconic building in flames. | :03:11. | :03:13. | |
It wasn't until this morning that the true extent of the fire can be | :03:14. | :03:30. | |
iwith some fires inside. Thdy tell us that the building is strtcturally | :03:31. | :03:33. | |
safe. We have got structural engineers | :03:34. | :03:34. | |
going up into our aerial appliances to assess the structural st`bility | :03:35. | :03:40. | |
of the building. Once we have decided it is safe we might consider | :03:41. | :03:43. | |
opening the roads but at thd moment, we are in no position to opdn them. | :03:44. | :04:09. | |
The building was unoccupied but had recently undergone refurbishment. | :04:10. | :04:46. | |
of city square with the post office of the Queens hotel and the cinema | :04:47. | :04:51. | |
itself. It is so recognisably Leeds city centre. | :04:52. | :04:53. | |
It is a sad loss for the city because it has been reduced to | :04:54. | :04:56. | |
ruins. What now? I just hope it isn't | :04:57. | :04:58. | |
completely demolished. Police say a 32`year`old man was | :04:59. | :05:00. | |
arrested in the area but sax it is too early to say whether thd cause | :05:01. | :05:03. | |
You can imagine people coming into Leeds to go to the cinema and they | :05:04. | :05:19. | |
went to untold luxury, a fantasy world of film which would'vd been at | :05:20. | :05:24. | |
America's evening afternoon out for them and Leeds had seen nothing like | :05:25. | :05:32. | |
it when it opened. In the l`te 960s the Majestyk became a bingo hall and | :05:33. | :05:41. | |
in the 1990s it became a super club for Leeds. It traded on its sheer | :05:42. | :05:49. | |
size as an ideal space for the burgeoning band scene. When acid | :05:50. | :05:55. | |
house took off and Leeds was the capital of dance music, it tsed to | :05:56. | :06:01. | |
attract everybody. That was sometimes his downfall becatse it | :06:02. | :06:06. | |
was the only big club in town. Some nights all of Leeds was in there. It | :06:07. | :06:14. | |
closed as a nightclub in 2006 and was waiting for a new occupher. The | :06:15. | :06:19. | |
listed structure remains so it seems as 93`year`old masterpiece lay still | :06:20. | :06:30. | |
have a future. If you leave outside Leeds you know know why this | :06:31. | :06:33. | |
building is so important for the city. The owners say they are | :06:34. | :06:41. | |
devastated but they are detdrmined the building will rise from the | :06:42. | :06:42. | |
ashes. Lots of you have been getting in | :06:43. | :06:56. | |
touch to share you memories of the Majestyk. Roy Dexter contacted us | :06:57. | :07:04. | |
to say he met his wife Ruth at the Majestyk 56 years ago when ht was a | :07:05. | :07:07. | |
ballroom, today is their 54th wedding anniversary. He says 'We had | :07:08. | :07:12. | |
some absolutely super nights there, it was a lovely place and wd are so | :07:13. | :07:15. | |

Jamie Coulson reports. The family of this girl havd | :08:10. | :08:21. | |
campaigned to keep services at the hospital. It is hard to explain what | :08:22. | :08:29. | |

Darlington. Parents are told not to bring their children and if it is an | :09:22. | :09:27. | |
emergency. We have had to m`ke these changes with a heavy heart but we | :09:28. | :09:31. | |
believe it will improve chances for survival of children who ard very | :09:32. | :09:36. | |
sick in the local area. We do appreciate it will bring problems | :09:37. | :09:39. | |
for local families who have to travel further. The changes lead to | :09:40. | :09:45. | |
a protest march through Northallerton. Campaigners see this | :09:46. | :09:53. | |
as a loss of local care. Thdy destroy the centre of excellence and | :09:54. | :09:56. | |
destroy the peace of mind of communities. This wonderful hospital | :09:57. | :10:00. | |
has served so faithfully ovdr many years and I do not think thhs should | :10:01. | :10:05. | |
happen. Later on Look North: Currying favour | :10:06. | :10:18. | |

excellence. We are going to work on the wellness agenda which is a real | :13:29. | :13:35. | |
challenge to most industrial societies and that is what we will | :13:36. | :13:38. | |
be doing with the Universitx and the teaching hospital and with the local | :13:39. | :13:43. | |
authority and with the people of Sheffield and the elite sport people | :13:44. | :13:48. | |

your 40 million requests. 10 million will come from the technical college | :13:58. | :14:01. | |
and 70 million will come from the National educational budget and 10 | :14:02. | :14:05. | |
million will come from the private sector and we hope that will be | :14:06. | :14:09. | |
match funded through the Regional Growth Fund and we have had a very | :14:10. | :14:14. | |
good indications that will provide the capital for the advanced | :14:15. | :14:19. | |
well`being research Centre. On top of that, we will meet next week with | :14:20. | :14:28. | |
some of the big names in thhs industry who are coming to Sheffield | :14:29. | :14:38. | |

A senior police officer on duty at the Hillsborough Stadium disaster | :15:12. | :15:13. | |
said today it remained in hhs mind that, if he had not asked for an | :15:14. | :15:17. | |
exit gate to be opened to rdlieve serious congestion outside, the 96 | :15:18. | :15:20. | |
Liverpool fans would not have died. Now retired, Superintdndent | :15:21. | :15:24. | |
Roger Marshall was in chargd of policing the Liverpool fans at the | :15:25. | :15:27. | |
1989 Cup semi`final. He hss told the Hillsborough inquests he pldaded for | :15:28. | :15:30. | |
a gate to be opened because he'd feared a death outside the stadium. | :15:31. | :15:33. | |

have opened a walk`in facilhty on the town's high street. Last year | :15:52. | :15:54. | |
the education secretary said Doncaster Council would be stripped | :15:55. | :15:56. | |
of children's services after what the government called a "legacy of | :15:57. | :15:59. | |
failure" following a number of preventable deaths. Their sdrvices | :16:00. | :16:14. | |
need to be classed as 'outstanding' by Ofsted by 2019. | :16:15. | :16:22. | |
A 20`year`old student drowndd in the river after drinking spirits and | :16:23. | :16:28. | |
cocktails all evening, an inquest has heard. Megan Roberts from | :16:29. | :16:31. | |
Wetherby, disappeared in January. Her friends says they'd nevdr seen | :16:32. | :16:33. | |
Her body was discovered in Larch ` on the same day Ben Clarkson, a York | :16:34. | :16:41. | |
sales assistant, disappeared. Today a coroner highlighted the d`ngers of | :16:42. | :16:43. | |
drinking too much near water. Charlotte Leeming has been `t the | :16:44. | :16:46. | |
inquests and is in York for us this evening. | :16:47. | :16:51. | |
The coroner said this verdict had to be left open because he could not | :16:52. | :17:00. | |
say how Megan and Ben ended up in the rivers and York. ``in York. The | :17:01. | :17:21. | |
information was quite distrdssing. Megan was out in January with | :17:22. | :17:24. | |
friends from university and there was a lot of heavy drinking such as | :17:25. | :17:29. | |
triple vodkas and cocktails and shots. At one stage in the dvening a | :17:30. | :17:35. | |
friend told she seemed drunk and asked if she wanted to go home but | :17:36. | :17:39. | |
she was having a good time `nd didn't want to leave. A pathologist | :17:40. | :17:44. | |
found through blood tests that are levels of alcohol were thred times | :17:45. | :17:49. | |
the drink`driving limit which would be enough to make anybody | :17:50. | :17:53. | |
disorientated and unstable on their feet. It is a similar case for Ben | :17:54. | :18:01. | |
who was quite tall chap and could handle his drink but nevertheless he | :18:02. | :18:07. | |
did have a lot to drink that night and was twice the drink`driving | :18:08. | :18:10. | |
limit. The pathologist said that would disagree them and makd him | :18:11. | :18:15. | |
unsteady on his feet and st`gger around. The sad thing today is that | :18:16. | :18:21. | |
the family will never reallx know the final moments in the lives of | :18:22. | :18:25. | |
their children and how they came to be in these rivers. The coroner | :18:26. | :18:30. | |
really wanted to raise awardness of dangerous particularly to students. | :18:31. | :18:34. | |
He said it was such a tragic end to these young lives. | :18:35. | :18:41. | |
Before seven o'clock: A Yorkshire legend ` as David Cameron c`lls | :18:42. | :18:44. | |
William Hague the greatest living Yorkshireman we look at who you | :18:45. | :18:46. | |
Staying with South Yorkshird, sport and Rotherham United brought | :18:47. | :19:03. | |
a six`game winless run to an end last night. | :19:04. | :19:06. | |
The Millers got off to a great start when Kari Arn`son s | :19:07. | :19:08. | |
That was followed by a bizarre second goal. | :19:09. | :19:12. | |
Striker Luchiano Beckio didn't know much about it but they all count | :19:13. | :19:15. | |
Sheffield Wednesday also made a flying start thanks to | :19:16. | :19:18. | |
Atdhe Nuhiu's powerful headdr direct from a corner. | :19:19. | :19:20. | |
But controversy followed whdn the Owls had two goals disallowed. | :19:21. | :19:25. | |
Then Ipswich equalised after Jonny Williams appeared to handle | :19:26. | :19:27. | |
It finished 1`1 and Wednesd`y stay ninth in the Championship. | :19:28. | :19:46. | |
There's nothing like a warm meal on a cold night ` and the Bradford | :19:47. | :19:50. | |
Curry Circle is providing thousands of them. Since its launch in | :19:51. | :19:52. | |
last year it's provided almost 000 meals to those who are homeless or | :19:53. | :19:56. | |
vulnerable. The Circle, set up by a group of Muslim women from Bradford, | :19:57. | :19:59. | |
invited our Communities Correspondent Jhangir Ahmed along. | :20:00. | :20:04. | |
A warming curry is a welcomd sight when you're living on the streets | :20:05. | :20:14. | |
are struggling to pay for food. It is good for the homeless and people | :20:15. | :20:20. | |
in need and they are really helpful. You feel nervous in places like this | :20:21. | :20:24. | |
when you feel out of place but the people are so warm and welcoming | :20:25. | :20:26. | |
they make you feel part of something. It was set up in when the | :20:27. | :20:37. | |
chief executive of the Muslhm Women's Council. We saw two people | :20:38. | :20:47. | |
looking in the dustbin outshde for food and that the stubbornndss and | :20:48. | :20:50. | |
also raised a question about humanity. How can we watch our | :20:51. | :20:58. | |
neighbours go hungry? Some of the food is deleted from local residents | :20:59. | :21:04. | |
and restaurants and some is donated by fundraising. There is also a | :21:05. | :21:09. | |
doctor on hand to offer medhcal advice. It is good food and good | :21:10. | :21:15. | |
people. The doctor services really good. With the winter season just | :21:16. | :21:22. | |
around the corner, the organisers know this sort of service whll | :21:23. | :21:25. | |
attract more people wanting a warm and cooked meal. The main fdar is | :21:26. | :21:34. | |
whether they can cook the M`c cope with the demand. People are more | :21:35. | :21:40. | |
vulnerable so they are lookhng for that hot meal and a warm environment | :21:41. | :21:46. | |
and support which can be through volunteering and also financial | :21:47. | :21:49. | |
donations and things like blankets and so on. It is hoped that this | :21:50. | :21:55. | |
service can continue and not be a victim of its own success. | :21:56. | :22:02. | |
Now who would you say is Yorkshire's greatest living Yorkshireman? | :22:03. | :22:18. | |
Obviously you, Harry! But ottside this studio let's think. Well, the | :22:19. | :22:21. | |
Prime Minister gives his vote to William Hague. The Richmond MP is | :22:22. | :22:24. | |
standing down from the commons next year and at the Conservativd Party | :22:25. | :22:27. | |
Conference David Cameron pahd tribute, as Emma Glasbey reports. | :22:28. | :22:32. | |
He led the Conservative Party and mixed with world leaders and even | :22:33. | :22:41. | |
became friends with Hollywood stars. David Cameron thinks he is the | :22:42. | :22:46. | |
greatest living Yorkshireman. Our greatest living Yorkshireman and | :22:47. | :22:51. | |
someone to whom I an enormots rectum that it should ``an enormous debt of | :22:52. | :23:14. | |
gratitude. It seems that David Cameron remembers an earlier woody | :23:15. | :23:20. | |
Hague speech. But can he colpete with these Yorkshire legends? Who is | :23:21. | :23:25. | |
really the greatest living Yorkshireman? William Hague is up | :23:26. | :23:38. | |
there in terms of political influence and possibly Geoffrey | :23:39. | :23:48. | |
Boycott. I would say Sean Bdan. I would say Jessica Ennis. No doubt | :23:49. | :23:57. | |
about it, Geoffrey Boycott. I would say it is probably Dickie Bhrd. It's | :23:58. | :24:09. | |
inspired a huge debate on twitter. It probably was not the talking | :24:10. | :24:13. | |
point that David Cameron had in mind. The Prime Minister should | :24:14. | :24:19. | |
probably know by now you cannot tell Yorkshire folk who is the greatest. | :24:20. | :24:48. | |
Tomorrow looks like another pleasant day after fog in the morning. The | :24:49. | :24:54. | |
weather will stay fairly settled in the morning but the first storm of | :24:55. | :25:00. | |
the autumn is coming in frol the Atlantic which will bring whndy | :25:01. | :25:09. | |
conditions by Saturday. You can see this band of cloud has been nothing | :25:10. | :25:14. | |
more than that, really, just a few spots of rain which will cldar in | :25:15. | :25:18. | |
the next few hours. Clear spells spreading from the North West. It | :25:19. | :25:24. | |
will be quite a cool night. There will be a frost out in the | :25:25. | :25:28. | |
countryside. The sun will rhse in the morning at nine minutes past | :25:29. | :25:47. | |
seven and set at six .4 1pm. ``at 6.41pm. There will be some or a | :25:48. | :25:54. | |
cloud in the afternoon and temperatures will be around the | :25:55. | :25:59. | |
normal for the year of around 1 degrees or 17 degrees. It w`s the | :26:00. | :26:07. | |
driest September on record for the UK as a whole because the jdt stream | :26:08. | :26:12. | |
has been to the north of us, leaving us with a lot of fine and sdttled | :26:13. | :26:17. | |
weather. That will graduallx trundle site over the next few days and | :26:18. | :26:21. | |
start to steer weather systdms are away, the first of which will be the | :26:22. | :26:25. | |
storm I was talking about on Friday night. There will be brightdr spells | :26:26. | :26:30. | |
but a freshening breeze and then heavy rain which will leave things | :26:31. | :26:35. | |
more changeable and typically a tunnel. ``autumnal. | :26:36. | :27:19. | |
