That is all of the sport. Thank you. That's it from us, we are back | :00:00. | :00:10. | |
Good evening. Tributes are being paid | :00:11. | :00:12. | |
to the Labour MP for Heywood and Middleton Jim Dobbin, | :00:13. | :00:15. | |
who's died suddenly at the age of 73. | :00:16. | :00:18. | |
He'd represented the constituency since 1997. | :00:19. | :00:21. | |
In my view, that's absolutely outrageous. Jim Dobbin was on a trip | :00:22. | :00:33. | |
to Poland with the parliamentary committee when he died. He was due | :00:34. | :00:38. | |
to fly home today. The 73`ydar`old is a microbiologist by thred decades | :00:39. | :00:43. | |
before becoming a Rochdale Council, and eventually securing the Heywood | :00:44. | :00:45. | |
and Middleton seat of the 1897 election. He was a forthright man, | :00:46. | :00:51. | |
never afraid there were afr`id to speak his mind. On occasion, he had | :00:52. | :00:57. | |
to take on the party itself, but he did what he believed was right that | :00:58. | :01:00. | |
the people of Heywood and Mhddleton, and he was a fantastic honotr | :01:01. | :01:05. | |
outstanding local MP. The MP was a committed Roman Catholic, and in | :01:06. | :01:09. | |
2008, he was made a Papal Knight by Pope Benedict. | :01:10. | :01:12. | |
Mr Dobbin with the local MP for Fusilier Lee Rigby, the soldier who | :01:13. | :01:16. | |
was murdered in bullets last year. One of the first phone calls I | :01:17. | :01:19. | |
received after the tragic ddath of Lee was from Jim Dobbin, expressing | :01:20. | :01:23. | |
his sorrows for the family. He was always there for me, and he made | :01:24. | :01:28. | |
great inroads into making the family feel secure in their outcomds in the | :01:29. | :01:35. | |
future. He was a great supporter of the family. MPs and colleagtes from | :01:36. | :01:39. | |
both sides have been paying tribute today. | :01:40. | :01:41. | |
The Labour leader Ed Miliband said Jim Dobbin was a dedicated public | :01:42. | :01:44. | |
servant with a passion for helping others. The Foreign Office `re | :01:45. | :01:46. | |
providing assistance to his family. Thousands of people cheered | :01:47. | :01:51. | |
on some of the best cyclists in the world as the Tour of Britain | :01:52. | :01:54. | |
got underway in Liverpool today More than 100 riders did | :01:55. | :01:57. | |
eight laps of the city, starting at the Liver Buildhng, | :01:58. | :01:59. | |
then out to Sefton Park and back. Claire Fallon was there | :02:00. | :02:02. | |
for the 'Grand Depart'. It might not have the profile | :02:03. | :02:06. | |
of its French counterpart. The streets of Liverpool packed | :02:07. | :02:09. | |
for the first stage I love cycling, the kids love | :02:10. | :02:30. | |
cycling, so it is great. Wh`t is the atmosphere like? Who have you been | :02:31. | :02:35. | |
looking out for? Mark Cavendish and we go. , secondly. You make it sound | :02:36. | :02:43. | |
like he is a consolation prhze! He is, really. | :02:44. | :02:44. | |
Sir Bradley Wiggins, mobbed by fans as he arrived. | :02:45. | :02:49. | |
Do you guys cheering on tod`y? It's a bit hard, because he loves | :02:50. | :02:57. | |
Cavendish. He is 47, his hero is half his age! I am with the Team Sky | :02:58. | :03:01. | |
boys all the way, so badly. With eight laps around Liverpool, | :03:02. | :03:03. | |
that at least meant eight goes But come the end, | :03:04. | :03:05. | |
it wasn't Wiggo or Cavendish... ..but Marcel Kittel who madd | :03:06. | :03:12. | |
the best of the sprint finish. And, of course, | :03:13. | :03:14. | |
there is another winner. The crowds have come out in their | :03:15. | :03:22. | |
thousands as usual, and to see the images of the city, right across the | :03:23. | :03:25. | |
nation and internationally, is just great for us. | :03:26. | :03:27. | |
Tomorrow the Tour moves on `s they race from Knowsley to North Wales. | :03:28. | :03:32. | |
And you can get the best coverage of the second stage of | :03:33. | :03:37. | |
the Tour of Britain as it ldaves Merseyside tomorrow | :03:38. | :03:41. | |
from Tony Snell at Breakfast and throughout the day | :03:42. | :03:43. | |
700 people have re`created the mass enlisting of workers | :03:44. | :03:51. | |
from a Wirral factory at the start of the First World War. | :03:52. | :03:55. | |
In 1914, the staff at Lever Brothers in Port Sunlhght | :03:56. | :03:58. | |
travelled from the village to Chester to sign up for | :03:59. | :04:01. | |
the 13th Battalion of the Cheshire Regiment. | :04:02. | :04:04. | |
It was the biggest contingent from a single workplace in the country and | :04:05. | :04:08. | |
Those 700 men signed up to the 3th Battalion, which was very mtch a | :04:09. | :04:21. | |
Powles' battalion. They worked together in the factory, thdy lived | :04:22. | :04:26. | |
together in the village, and they also socialise together, so the | :04:27. | :04:29. | |
removal of that significant number of people must have had enormous | :04:30. | :04:33. | |
effect on both factory life and also village life, and, of coursd, many | :04:34. | :04:35. | |
never came back. The last two remaining airborne | :04:36. | :04:36. | |
Lancaster bombers were in the skies over the Lake District | :04:37. | :04:38. | |
this afternoon. The flypast over Brockhole near | :04:39. | :04:40. | |
Windermere was in memory of local man Archie Johnston, who was in the | :04:41. | :04:43. | |
original 'Dambusters' 617 Spuadron. He passed away in April and today | :04:44. | :04:47. | |
would have been his 100th bhrthday. In Superleague this afternoon, | :04:48. | :04:51. | |
Widnes won away at Bradford 32` 2, and Salford beat bottom`of`the`table | :04:52. | :04:57. | |
London Broncos by 58 points to 6 Let's get to K Forster, now, who has | :04:58. | :05:02. | |
the weather. Good evening. A fabulous dax today. | :05:03. | :05:21. | |
Blue skies that of Britain, and we are in for Simla weather for the | :05:22. | :05:25. | |
next stage. It looks like another fine day. Not a lot changes for the | :05:26. | :05:29. | |
rest of the day and overnight. We stay dry, clear skies for a time, | :05:30. | :05:33. | |
and temperatures will be falling quite quickly. Blows down to around | :05:34. | :05:37. | |
four or 5 degrees in some rtral spots by the morning. Some list and | :05:38. | :05:41. | |
fog around first thing as wdll, but that clears quite quickly through | :05:42. | :05:44. | |
the morning, and it will be another fine day. Fairweather cloud here and | :05:45. | :05:49. | |
there, but many of us stayed right and sunny all day, and with light | :05:50. | :05:54. | |
winds, temperatures around 06 or 17 Celsius. Shouldn't feel too bad at | :05:55. | :05:55. | |
all. We stay dry, but fairly cloudy, for the rest | :05:56. | :06:00. | |
of the week. That is it frol the. Goodbye. | :06:01. | :06:07. | |
Good evening. Most of us had a lovely end to the weekend but the | :06:08. | :06:12. | |
exception was the north-east of Scotland. It was cold, wet and windy | :06:13. | :06:16. | |
but the low responsible is now moving away and we have high | :06:17. | :06:19. | |
pressure moving its way in from the West. The pressure is rising all the | :06:20. | :06:22. | |
while over the next few days which will settle things down nicely and | :06:23. | :06:25. | |
it will be dry pretty much all week. But the forecasting headache will be | :06:26. | :06:31. | |
the amount of cloud. The next few hours will still be pretty wet and | :06:32. | :06:34. | |
windy in the north-east of Scotland but through | :06:35. | :06:35. |
