A murder investigation is underway in Lancashire after a man was

:00:00.:00:15.

The local man, believed to be in his late teens,

:00:16.:00:20.

was found on St Stephen's Road in Deepdale with what police say appear

:00:21.:00:23.

A 20`year`old man from Preston has been arrested

:00:24.:00:28.

Police patrols have been stepped up in the area.

:00:29.:00:34.

We came out and loads of people were around him and then the police

:00:35.:00:38.

and ambulance came and the ambulance was there all night, didn't move.

:00:39.:00:41.

It is a quite nice neighbourhood, so we are really surprised that

:00:42.:00:46.

I'm a bit shook up, really, now that something like this has happened.

:00:47.:00:55.

A motorcyclist has been killed on the Isle of Man during a qualifying

:00:56.:01:00.

The police in Cumbria are appealing for information after a child

:01:01.:01:02.

suffered facial injuries after being bitten by a dog in Kendal.

:01:03.:01:05.

Officers say the nine`year`old was badly hurt

:01:06.:01:07.

in the incident while playing in a field near Broad Ing Crescent

:01:08.:01:09.

The dog's described as brown, medium`sized, with possibly

:01:10.:01:14.

Police want to speak to anyone with information.

:01:15.:01:23.

A memorial service has been held at Tatton Park this afternoon to

:01:24.:01:26.

remember soldiers from the Cheshire Regiment who were killed

:01:27.:01:28.

The commemoration is to mark the centenary of the Battle of Mons

:01:29.:01:32.

where the 1st battalion of the 22nd Regiment suffered severe casualties.

:01:33.:01:37.

Over 700 men lost their lives in one day of fighting.

:01:38.:01:43.

A big event today, lots of local people on board, lots

:01:44.:01:45.

of people from all over Cheshire coming in, dignitaries from all

:01:46.:01:49.

around the world and some fantastic performances to commemorate it.

:01:50.:01:53.

We say it is important to remember and commemorate this

:01:54.:01:57.

event seriously and I think we've done it tastefully.

:01:58.:02:03.

Sport now and Southport swimmer Fran Halsall has this afternoon

:02:04.:02:06.

clinched a third gold medal at the European Championships in Berlin.

:02:07.:02:08.

She won the 50m freestyle in 24.32 seconds following victories

:02:09.:02:14.

in the mixed medley relay finals and the 50m backstroke.

:02:15.:02:21.

To get in races where it's close and get your hand on the wall first is

:02:22.:02:27.

something that you've got to try and make a habit of and you've got to

:02:28.:02:30.

want to do, especially in a 50 and to win the 50 backstroke by such a

:02:31.:02:34.

close margin and to get up tonight and win the 50 freestyle so close

:02:35.:02:38.

Football and Manchester United drew 1`1 away at Sunderland.

:02:39.:02:48.

Juan Mata in the end left`footed a shot from very close range to

:02:49.:02:51.

Soon after though, 29 minutes in, Sunderland equalised.

:02:52.:03:00.

An iconic Cumbrian image depicting a flock of sheep being driven

:03:01.:03:04.

through the streets of Kendal has been brought back to life today.

:03:05.:03:08.

Kendal Rush Hour which was taken over 60 years ago by photographer

:03:09.:03:11.

Joseph Hardman was re`created, complete with the release

:03:12.:03:14.

When this image was taken in 1953, running sheep through

:03:15.:03:24.

Six decades on and the tradition has been recreated.

:03:25.:03:31.

The scene was set, the crowds were ready and it was

:03:32.:03:35.

Kendall rough fell sheep, great temperament.

:03:36.:03:47.

There was a lot of worry, a lot of panic, they came down like lambs,

:03:48.:03:50.

Joseph Hardman photographed Lakeland scenes between 1930 and 1960.

:03:51.:03:59.

He was born in Radcliffe in Manchester,

:04:00.:04:01.

The recreated image aims to help promote the town's links to

:04:02.:04:06.

Agriculture is hugely important in this area, sheep are

:04:07.:04:12.

the mainstay of farming in this area, so to re`enact such a historic

:04:13.:04:16.

The question now, though, is how do they compare?

:04:17.:04:22.

We've got one of their photos at home, so we'll go home

:04:23.:04:26.

and have a look at it now to see if it's the same as this morning.

:04:27.:04:31.

The shops and vehicles may have changed,

:04:32.:04:34.

but the sheep follow timelessly in the footsteps of their ancestors.

:04:35.:04:43.

Here's the weather for rest of the bank`holiday weekend with

:04:44.:04:45.

It's been nice to have a dry day today, but the weather is changing

:04:46.:04:52.

We've got just a few showers moving up from the south and then we will

:04:53.:04:58.

start to see signs of a weather front coming in during the early

:04:59.:05:01.

hours, so with all the cloud cover, it will be mild overnight, the

:05:02.:05:05.

temperatures dropping to a minimum of nine Celsius. Through tomorrow

:05:06.:05:08.

morning, there's first signs of that weather front coming up

:05:09.:05:11.

from the south, which will produce some patchy rain for a time.

:05:12.:05:14.

There's another front waiting quite close behind, that one's going to

:05:15.:05:17.

start to merge with it, and we will see more persistent rain into

:05:18.:05:20.

the afternoon, some heavy rainfall likely, certainly through the

:05:21.:05:22.

afternoon and evening, and quite a breezy southeasterly wind.

:05:23.:05:26.

That's going to make it feel a lot colder on bank holiday Monday.

:05:27.:05:29.

We gradually start to see the weather improving again by Tuesday.

:05:30.:05:33.

Low pressure is controlling the weather through the early part of

:05:34.:05:36.

this week, but drier and brighter conditions returning, a little bit

:05:37.:05:38.

A dry day on Wednesday too, but a bit more cloud around

:05:39.:05:44.

and certainly a fresh feel to this coming week, turning quite wet again

:05:45.:05:47.

We are back at 10:15 with your late news, hope you can join us. Goodbye.

:05:48.:06:08.

After that cold start this morning, it has been quite a nice day for

:06:09.:06:13.

most of us. We have seen cloud amounts increasing but it is this

:06:14.:06:16.

cloud that is coming in from the Atlantic which is going to bring

:06:17.:06:21.

change in weather. Not too much rain from it, further patchy rain across

:06:22.:06:24.

Northern Ireland overnight, some rain at times across Wales and the

:06:25.:06:29.

south-west, shovelling further east. Far north of England and

:06:30.:06:32.

particularly Scotland, saying drive. Clearer skies, still quite cold,

:06:33.:06:36.

elsewhere, not as cold as it was last night. Cloudy day tomorrow

:06:37.:06:41.

across England and Wales, some rain at times, heavy rain, brighter

:06:42.:06:44.

colours coming into the south-west, through the morning, pushing into

:06:45.:06:48.

the Midlands, towards the south-east and parts of Northern Ireland as

:06:49.:06:52.

well. Further north, Scotland may well stay dry, the North West of

:06:53.:06:55.

Scotland is the place to be, quite a bit of sunshine. Cool breeze off the

:06:56.:07:00.

North Sea, picking up for eastern Scotland, may be gusty

:07:01.:07:01.
