on the BBC News Channel. I'm back with the News at Ten. Now it's time | :00:00. | 3:59:59 | |
for the latest where you Good evening. The police in Cumbria | :00:00. | :00:19. | |
have named a man who died in a house fire in Ambleside as Richard Durkin. | :00:20. | :00:23. | |
He was 58. The blaze broke out in a terraced house in the centre of the | :00:24. | :00:35. | |
town early today. Fire crews were called to the house | :00:36. | :00:40. | |
on Bridge Street at 7:30am. There was a severe fire in the kitchen | :00:41. | :00:44. | |
which spread to other parts of the property. You can see fire damage to | :00:45. | :00:47. | |
the window at the rear of the house. Fire officers recovered the | :00:48. | :00:50. | |
man from the fire but despite receiving medical attention, he | :00:51. | :00:54. | |
died. His partner escaped unharmed. Fire crews from across the South | :00:55. | :01:01. | |
Lakes help. Crews from the area were mobilised. They got here quickly. | :01:02. | :01:04. | |
The Ambleside crew were just over the road. They started tackling the | :01:05. | :01:09. | |
fire using breathing apparatus and hose reel jets. They had to remove a | :01:10. | :01:16. | |
casualty, unfortunately, a fatality from the premises. The fire was in a | :01:17. | :01:22. | |
house just if you yards from the centre of Ambleside. Thousands of | :01:23. | :01:29. | |
visitors are preparing for New Year holidays. We understand his partner | :01:30. | :01:31. | |
was asleep upstairs when the fire alarm went off. She tried to get him | :01:32. | :01:35. | |
out of the property but was unable to do so. Neighbours say he had | :01:36. | :01:40. | |
lived here for about seven years. They described him as kind and even | :01:41. | :01:45. | |
tempered. Many are clearly extremely shocked at what has happened. This | :01:46. | :01:49. | |
afternoon, men were carrying out repairs at the house. Cumbria Fire | :01:50. | :01:53. | |
Service say a full investigation into the cause of the blaze is now | :01:54. | :01:56. | |
underway but they say it was accidental and not malicious. The | :01:57. | :02:01. | |
BBC understands that a faulty heater may have been to blame. | :02:02. | :02:15. | |
The 60`year`old Labour MP was running with his son yesterday when | :02:16. | :02:21. | |
he was taken ill. He was taken to Salford Royal was little by anglers. | :02:22. | :02:26. | |
His family has released a statement and have asked for prayers and | :02:27. | :02:33. | |
privacy. He is a fighter. With the skills of the surgeons, at one of | :02:34. | :02:39. | |
the best hospitals in the country, he will pull through. My thoughts | :02:40. | :02:45. | |
are with his wife and his family. Hopefully we will get some good news | :02:46. | :02:47. | |
in the next few days. A stand`off between armed police and | :02:48. | :02:50. | |
a man, who it's alleged was holding a woman against her will in Burnley, | :02:51. | :02:54. | |
has ended. Officers were called to the property in Escott Gardens at | :02:55. | :02:57. | |
4.30 yesterday afternoon. Within the last hour police say the woman was | :02:58. | :03:01. | |
released unharmed. A 20`year`old man and a 15`year`old boy have been | :03:02. | :03:04. | |
arrested on suspicion of false imprisonment and are currently in | :03:05. | :03:08. | |
police custody. A minute's silence is to be held in | :03:09. | :03:11. | |
memory of Adam pick`up whose body was found yesterday after he went | :03:12. | :03:15. | |
missing on a night out in Manchester. The organisers of the | :03:16. | :03:17. | |
city's New Year celebrations will ask revellers to remember the | :03:18. | :03:22. | |
17`year`old from Stockport. A large sinkhole's appeared in part | :03:23. | :03:25. | |
of the Peak District in Derbyshire. The hole, on farmland near the | :03:26. | :03:28. | |
village of Foolow, is over 150 feet wide. It's thought the earth | :03:29. | :03:33. | |
movement could be connected to underground caverns and mining | :03:34. | :03:41. | |
activity in the area in the past. The broadcaster Geoffrey Wheeler has | :03:42. | :03:44. | |
died in Cheshire aged 80. He was best known for presenting BBC shows | :03:45. | :03:50. | |
including songs of praise. He died yesterday after a long illness. | :03:51. | :04:04. | |
Now, humbled, ecstatic and close to tears. The reactions of a host of | :04:05. | :04:08. | |
names from the North West who've been recognised in the New Year's | :04:09. | :04:09. | |
been recognised in the New Year s honours list. Among them is the | :04:10. | :04:12. | |
chief executive of Salford Royal Hospital, who's the only person in | :04:13. | :04:16. | |
the region to receive a Knighthood and a couple from Oldham who have | :04:17. | :04:19. | |
fostered more than 150 children. For 30 years, fostering children has | :04:20. | :04:22. | |
been a career and a pleasure for Glenys and Harold Cockroft from | :04:23. | :04:25. | |
Oldham. They've even spent weeks living in hospital to care for sick | :04:26. | :04:28. | |
children. They're to be rewarded with an MBE. It is nice. It is a | :04:29. | :04:32. | |
shock. We are very proud, aren't we? We don't do it for no reward, just | :04:33. | :04:35. | |
for the children. The reward is seeing those children happy. Just | :04:36. | :04:44. | |
happy. Also collecting an MBE will be the founder of the Kinder | :04:45. | :04:47. | |
Children's Choir of the High Peak, Joyce Ellis from Derbyshire. The | :04:48. | :04:51. | |
choir takes children of all abilities, regardless of cost. I am | :04:52. | :05:01. | |
conscious that children are typecast in many way if they cannot sing by | :05:02. | :05:05. | |
the time they are eight, then they don't sing at all. We don't | :05:06. | :05:10. | |
audition. I think that is really important. Auditioning is not | :05:11. | :05:17. | |
appropriate all the time. Staying with music, the Liverpool born world | :05:18. | :05:20. | |
famous conductor Sir Simon Rattle is awarded an Order of Merit. And Sir | :05:21. | :05:22. | |
Peter Maxwell`Davies, the Queen s Peter Maxwell`Davies, the Queen's | :05:23. | :05:24. | |
official composer who was born in Salford, will be made a Companion of | :05:25. | :05:27. | |
Honour. Restaurant owners, sisters Lisa and Helen Tse from Oldham, will | :05:28. | :05:32. | |
collect an MBE. Becoming a knight is David Dalton, the Chief Executive of | :05:33. | :05:35. | |
Salford Royal Hospital, which was recently named the north of | :05:36. | :05:40. | |
England's Trust of the Year. While in Lancashire, Blackpool nightclub | :05:41. | :05:43. | |
entrepreneur Basil Newby gains an MBE. For him, and all the others on | :05:44. | :05:48. | |
the honour's list, it's a New Year to celebrate. | :05:49. | :05:57. | |
Manchester's big wheel has returned to the city. Piccadilly Gardens will | :05:58. | :06:01. | |
be the new home for the wheel which offers rides in 42 boards. It will | :06:02. | :06:08. | |
host tonight 's fire display and `` firework display and will remain | :06:09. | :06:09. | |
there until 2015. Good evening. We started New Year's | :06:10. | :06:18. | |
Eve with a huge band of rain and we have two flood warnings from the | :06:19. | :06:22. | |
Environment Agency in force. But if you are out and about in the next | :06:23. | :06:25. | |
few hours, you can expect to see some hefty showers. The work `` they | :06:26. | :06:30. | |
are working their way in from the West. The wind is also picking up, | :06:31. | :06:37. | |
near gale force by Dawn. Fewer showers and temperatures will be | :06:38. | :06:40. | |
down to two or three Celsius by Dawn. For the first day of 2014 I'm | :06:41. | :06:43. | |
Dawn. For the first day of 2014, I'm afraid we are going to started with | :06:44. | :06:47. | |
a yellow weather warning from The Met office. We do start off fairly | :06:48. | :06:52. | |
dry and fairly cloudy. That rain begins to work in from the | :06:53. | :06:59. | |
south`west. Some heavy pulses of rain through the afternoon and the | :07:00. | :07:02. | |
winds will continue to pick up, particularly around the Isle of Man, | :07:03. | :07:05. | |
where we could see winds close to gale force. By late afternoon, we | :07:06. | :07:10. | |
are left with heavy showers. Temperatures close to nine or 10 | :07:11. | :07:12. | |
Temperatures close to nine or 1 Celsius. On Thursday, it is drier, | :07:13. | :07:17. | |
hopefully sunnier of the first week of the New Year will bring lots of | :07:18. | :07:22. | |
rain and strong winds. BBC Radio Cumbria, Lancashire, Manchester and | :07:23. | :07:25. | |
Merseyside will keep you regularly updated. That's our last programme | :07:26. | :07:32. | |
for 2013. We are back at one o'clock tomorrow. Happy New | :07:33. | :07:39. | |
Good evening. It looks like mother nature may provide her own | :07:40. | :07:44. | |
pyrotechnics in the run-up to bid night tonight. We have some heavy | :07:45. | :07:49. | |
showers in western parts, starting to ease a bit across Scotland and | :07:50. | :07:55. | |
Northern Ireland. But the showers further south are heavier, with some | :07:56. | :07:59. | |
flashes of lightning as they move eastwards. They do get a bit more | :08:00. | :08:03. | |
hit and miss as we head towards midnight, but a greater chance of | :08:04. | :08:08. | |
getting wet in the south as we move into 2014. Cardiff and London could | :08:09. | :08:13. | |
see heavy downpours. Further north, you could be greeting the New Year | :08:14. | :08:19. | |
on a dry note. A touch of | :08:20. | :08:20. |
