Welcome to North West Tonight with Roger Johnson and Annabel Thffin. | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
As video of a second British hostage is released, | :00:07. | :00:09. | |
more than 100 Muslim groups call on Islamic State to release Salford | :00:10. | :00:13. | |
We'll talk live to one of the Muslim leaders pleading for Alan Hdnning's | :00:14. | :00:25. | |

huge exercise to make sure the emergency services work togdther as | :00:56. | :01:01. | |
The Muslim community in the North West has united to express hts | :01:02. | :01:09. | |
revulsion at the kidnapping of the Salford aid worker Alan Henning and | :01:10. | :01:13. | |
Leaders from different secthons of the Islamic faith have shgned | :01:14. | :01:19. | |
a letter condemning Islamic State, the group who've threatened to | :01:20. | :01:22. | |
We'll be talking to one of the 100`plus signatories to | :01:23. | :01:26. | |
the letter in a moment, but first Clare Fallon reports. | :01:27. | :01:42. | |
Filmed during Alan Henning's last hours of freedom. | :01:43. | :01:46. | |
But travelling to Syria with the friends who called him Gadget | :01:47. | :01:53. | |
Held hostage for the last 9 months and whth a | :01:54. | :02:03. | |
video posted by his captors at the weekend threatening to kill him | :02:04. | :02:07. | |
The response here is one of condemnation. | :02:08. | :02:14. | |
It looks very clear that whoever kills a human being... | :02:15. | :02:24. | |
Anjum Anwar works at Blackburn Cathedral. | :02:25. | :02:25. | |
She's one of the many Muslil leaders in the UK who've signed a ldtter | :02:26. | :02:29. | |
He is an innocent human being who was out there doing good work, | :02:30. | :02:37. | |
helping people. It is painftl but someone like me, I can only imagine | :02:38. | :02:45. | |
A new hostage video released today makes no reference to Alan Henning. | :02:46. | :02:50. | |
It shows another British man being held by IS. | :02:51. | :02:52. | |
But it's not just the militants using social ledia. | :02:53. | :02:54. | |
With the hashtag Not in My name more and more people are hoping | :02:55. | :02:57. | |
their message is heard and that it might just help. | :02:58. | :03:20. | |
Do you think Islamic State will take any notice of people like this? | :03:21. | :03:29. | |
Firstly I think they should be called an Islamic State. We hope it | :03:30. | :03:35. | |
will make a difference for @lan Henning. That is very important for | :03:36. | :03:44. | |
us. Given how extreme their behaviour has been shown to be, | :03:45. | :03:47. | |
could this make them even more resolved? We hope that the text of | :03:48. | :03:54. | |
the letter and the appeal from the Muslims of the UK will make a | :03:55. | :04:00. | |
difference. What is the perception of the Muslim community herd to what | :04:01. | :04:05. | |
is deemed done in your name in Syria and Iraq? They are saying not in our | :04:06. | :04:14. | |
name. I have signed at this letter and all the mosque council have | :04:15. | :04:18. | |
signed it. It has been signdd on behalf of over 27,000 Muslils. Their | :04:19. | :04:24. | |
perception is that this is `n an Islamic State who are going around | :04:25. | :04:30. | |
pretending to be Islamic. What is the perception that a Muslil people | :04:31. | :04:35. | |
in this country are finding from the broader community in the wake of | :04:36. | :04:39. | |
what is being done by Islamhc State to the Western hostages who have | :04:40. | :04:44. | |
already been executed? We h`ve been here a very long time. Indigenous | :04:45. | :04:52. | |
people here are very tolerant. There are a few exceptions and yot would | :04:53. | :04:59. | |
get that in any community. But are you finding people are antagonistic | :05:00. | :05:04. | |
towards you? You find that lore in cyberspace than in face`to`face | :05:05. | :05:08. | |
meetings. If people are sayhng this face`to`face, then I feel it is a | :05:09. | :05:13. | |
good thing because it is an opportunity to engage. | :05:14. | :05:23. | |
An inquest in Kendal today heard how a zoo`keeper was mauled to death | :05:24. | :05:26. | |
by a tiger as she worked in the animal's enclosure | :05:27. | :05:28. | |
After the jury's conclusion this afternoon, | :05:29. | :05:32. | |
Sarah McClay's mother and p`rtner reacted to the end of the inquest. | :05:33. | :05:37. | |
Beccy Meehan was at the inqtest and joins us now. | :05:38. | :05:41. | |
The family has sat through four days of gruelling testimony. The | :05:42. | :05:57. | |
coroner, after his summing tp, praised the dignified and sdnsible | :05:58. | :05:59. | |
manner in which the family conducted themselves. They heard in some | :06:00. | :06:07. | |
detail about the attack. Earlier the jury came back with a narrative | :06:08. | :06:19. | |
verdict. A wildlife lover whth a dream job she was working as a zoo | :06:20. | :06:24. | |
keeper in Cumbria when she was mauled to death by a tiger last | :06:25. | :06:29. | |
year. An inquest in Kendal this week heard how the 24`year`old from | :06:30. | :06:34. | |
Glasgow was working inside ` cat enclosure in May 2013 when she was | :06:35. | :06:38. | |
killed. Today the jury concluded that the tiger walked through a door | :06:39. | :06:44. | |
that had been left open in the enclosure and smacked Sarah from the | :06:45. | :06:49. | |
keepers corridor where she worked. She loved animals and it ironic that | :06:50. | :06:51. | |
she should've been killed an animal. Much of the testimony focusdd on how | :06:52. | :07:07. | |
the safety door came to be open No responsibility was apportioned. | :07:08. | :07:12. | |
Earlier this week zookeeper David Gill told how he fired a | :07:13. | :07:18. | |
tranquilliser at the tiger. Sarah was a dedicated and valued lember of | :07:19. | :07:25. | |
the staff. Her enthusiasm and friendly character were appreciated | :07:26. | :07:29. | |
by everyone she met. A separate investigation into the zoo hs | :07:30. | :07:35. | |
ongoing. But Sarah's partner, the trauma is ongoing. It is quhte | :07:36. | :07:44. | |
simply no future, and what could've been. As we had, the coroner | :07:45. | :07:51. | |
recorded a narrative verdict. This isn't the end of the story? That's | :07:52. | :07:58. | |
right. The GRE was asked to come to some conclusions about the facts. | :07:59. | :08:04. | |
That is what they did. The family has said there are some unanswered | :08:05. | :08:09. | |
questions. They have their own ideas on who is responsible for what | :08:10. | :08:14. | |
happened to Sarah. They are keeping silent on their theories until there | :08:15. | :08:17. | |
is a conclusion to another investigation which is being carried | :08:18. | :08:21. | |
out. We are led to believe that is coming close to its conclushon. | :08:22. | :08:31. | |
There is still some distancd to run on the story. | :08:32. | :08:38. | |
Manchester Dogs Home has begun to put up temporary kennels next to the | :08:39. | :08:41. | |
buildings destroyed by last week's fire, although no stray dogs are | :08:42. | :08:43. | |
The kennels have been lent by Battersea Dog's Home. | :08:44. | :08:55. | |
Six dogs have returned to the kennels. More than ?1 million has | :08:56. | :09:03. | |
been raised to rebuild the home Judy, six dogs are back but still a | :09:04. | :09:11. | |
lot of work to do. There is yes Behind me is the block that was | :09:12. | :09:15. | |
destroyed by the fire. We c`n't go in at the moment because of health | :09:16. | :09:20. | |
and safety reasons but we c`n show you some extent of this fird. As you | :09:21. | :09:24. | |
can see, the roof was made of timber and fibreglass. Everything hs | :09:25. | :09:29. | |
banned. The fire spread quickly sending debris crashing to the | :09:30. | :09:35. | |
ground. The smell of smoke `nd burned wood is still very strong. | :09:36. | :09:40. | |
And of course, around 50 dogs died in the fire. Lisa Graham is the | :09:41. | :09:47. | |
manager of the home. I'm sure you've not had much sleep this week. How | :09:48. | :09:54. | |
are these this week? Not too bad we are looking forward. Obviously, we | :09:55. | :09:58. | |
still have the devastation to deal with but we have been able to gain | :09:59. | :10:03. | |
access to a kennel area and bring some of the dogs back to st`rt their | :10:04. | :10:09. | |
rehabilitation. Yes we have some shots. You can only take a handful | :10:10. | :10:19. | |
of dogs at the moment. Our temporary kennels are going to be used for the | :10:20. | :10:23. | |
strays that will start coming into us. We will hold them temporarily. | :10:24. | :10:28. | |
We will still be sending thdm over to our Cheshire side. | :10:29. | :10:34. | |
People have been very generous. When will the new dogs can be buhlt here? | :10:35. | :10:45. | |
We don't have that on a timdline yet. We are dealing with dogs who | :10:46. | :10:53. | |
are in an emergency stay. Wd only had the site released to us in the | :10:54. | :10:57. | |
past 24 hours. We are just starting. Thank you very much. Most of the | :10:58. | :11:03. | |
dogs who did survive have bden fostered. | :11:04. | :11:15. | |
A former Merseyside police hnspector has denied he 'accentuated | :11:16. | :11:17. | |
the negative and eliminated the positive' in statements about | :11:18. | :11:19. | |
the behaviour of Liverpool fans before the Hillsborough dis`ster. | :11:20. | :11:21. | |
Keith Wilkinson was one of 14 mounted officers | :11:22. | :11:23. | |
The inquests heard how a second report he made contained | :11:24. | :11:27. | |
more references to fans drinking which hadn't appeared in his first. | :11:28. | :11:37. | |
A train derails in Liverpool, crashing into several cars | :11:38. | :11:39. | |
and a school, killing and injuring hundreds of people | :11:40. | :11:41. | |
But don't panic, it's an imaginary scenario for a massive | :11:42. | :11:43. | |
Nearly 1,000 people from the emergency services, local | :11:44. | :11:47. | |
councils, NHS and utility companies are taking part in the exercise | :11:48. | :11:52. | |
The idea is get them working together more effectively | :11:53. | :11:56. | |
The "injured" trapped in cars, trains and buildings. | :11:57. | :12:10. | |
And as realistic as possibld to test how the emergency services | :12:11. | :12:17. | |
The pressure that the firefhghters feel in responding to this scenario | :12:18. | :12:31. | |
is as intense as it would bd if it were real incident. | :12:32. | :12:34. | |
The RAF are also involved in the exercise. | :12:35. | :12:38. | |
After real disasters like the London bombings in 2005, | :12:39. | :12:40. | |
a number of enquires concluded the services did work well together | :12:41. | :12:44. | |
Which is why training like this is vital. | :12:45. | :12:54. | |
We've done 31 exercises across the country. This is by far the biggest | :12:55. | :13:00. | |
will stop it the finale for the programme. We are seeing sole 1 00 | :13:01. | :13:15. | |
players. The people who takd the decisions here don't know in detail | :13:16. | :13:18. | |
what is going to happen beforehand and the scenario can change many | :13:19. | :13:19. | |
times during the day. Communication is one of the | :13:20. | :13:43. | |
important things. Local students volunteered to be casualties. It was | :13:44. | :13:48. | |
emotionally draining. Reallx quite scary. It's been one of the most | :13:49. | :13:56. | |
horrific yet I opening experiences. The exercise runs until midnight. | :13:57. | :14:06. | |
The UKIP leader Nigel Faragd arrived in Heywood | :14:07. | :14:08. | |
and Middleton today to launch his party's by`election campaign. | :14:09. | :14:10. | |
The contest is taking place following the death of | :14:11. | :14:12. | |
A UKIP leaflet has accused Labour of ignoring years of child sextal abuse | :14:13. | :14:16. | |
But Labour have hit back saxing Nigel Farage's party is exploiting | :14:17. | :14:21. | |
the suffering of abuse victhms for political ends. | :14:22. | :14:25. | |
For Nigel Farage, today was about persuading the people of Hexwood | :14:26. | :14:34. | |
There were a lot of people out there who are looking for something | :14:35. | :14:46. | |
different. I think in UKIP what they see is a political party made about | :14:47. | :14:50. | |
people are not career polithcians. They are from all walks of life | :14:51. | :14:54. | |
But UKIP have already caused a big row here. | :14:55. | :14:56. | |
The party is being accused of exploiting the scandal of sexual | :14:57. | :14:58. | |
The parties by`election leaflet blames the abuse | :14:59. | :15:02. | |
of white girls mainly by Asian men on Labour's reluctance | :15:03. | :15:05. | |
Every single case where large`scale sexual grooming and molestation of | :15:06. | :15:19. | |
young girls has happened, every single case, there are Labotr | :15:20. | :15:23. | |
run... The Rochdale MP Simon Danzctk says | :15:24. | :15:26. | |
UKIP are exploiting the isste He's on holiday but spoke to us | :15:27. | :15:28. | |
from abroad. I've examined this issue very | :15:29. | :15:39. | |
closely. During that time UKIP have never had anything to say about it. | :15:40. | :15:44. | |
They are quite clearly trying to get votes on the back of this awful | :15:45. | :15:55. | |
crime. I think that's despicable. Someone shouted racist to you. Any | :15:56. | :16:02. | |
known politician walking down any high street will get abuse of some | :16:03. | :16:06. | |
kind. Racist is a strong word isn't it? Yes it is. So do the people that | :16:07. | :16:16. | |
live here want change? I am not a racist yet I want to support UKIP. I | :16:17. | :16:28. | |
won't vote UKIP. I want my country back. I voted Labour all thd time. I | :16:29. | :16:38. | |
won't vote UKIP. The big qudstion is will UKIP overturn Labour's big | :16:39. | :16:43. | |
majority of 6000 here. In exactly three weeks time we will find out | :16:44. | :16:45. | |
when voters go to the polls. We will be talking to all | :16:46. | :17:00. | |
the parties Both the Conservatives and the | :17:01. | :17:01. | |
Green Party said they didn't want to comment on the row about | :17:02. | :17:05. | |
the Rochdale grooming scand`l. We're still awaiting a statdment | :17:06. | :17:08. | |
from the Liberal Democrats. You can see a full list | :17:09. | :17:10. | |
of all the candidates The man in charge of Salford Reds | :17:11. | :17:12. | |
explains how he hopes to improve on And the author of warhorse dxplains | :17:13. | :17:30. | |
how he will be bringing the curtain down in Salford. It's a fantastic | :17:31. | :17:40. | |
privilege to walk on the st`ge with these people. | :17:41. | :17:45. | |
Sport now and Richard, an old favourite is back to try and turn | :17:46. | :17:48. | |
Yes Stanley, fifth bottom of League Two, have appointed John Coleman | :17:49. | :17:55. | |
He certainly won't need to be shown around. | :17:56. | :17:59. | |
John was manager there for 13 years from the late 0990s and | :18:00. | :18:02. | |
took the club all the way up from the lower reaches of non le`gue | :18:03. | :18:05. | |
He replaces James Beattie who left the club last week | :18:06. | :18:09. | |
When you've been in a club so long, and the feeling that you have, you | :18:10. | :18:24. | |
can't describe it. I am really looking forward to this. | :18:25. | :18:32. | |
Everton kick off their Europa League campaign tonight at home to German | :18:33. | :18:35. | |
It'll be their first Europe`n campaign in five seasons and manager | :18:36. | :18:39. | |
Roberto Martinez is excited by their group stage opponents. | :18:40. | :18:42. | |
The draw has been really kind in the way of bringing two | :18:43. | :18:45. | |
phenomenal teams of the quality of Lille and Wolfsburg to Goodison. | :18:46. | :18:51. | |
And then a real surpise with Krasnodar beating Real Sociddad | :18:52. | :18:55. | |
in the previous play`offs, so in terms of group stages it is | :18:56. | :18:59. | |
Despite holding their own against the five time winners, | :19:00. | :19:07. | |
Manchester City still lost their opening Champions League match | :19:08. | :19:10. | |
at Bayern Munich as their continental wobbles continudd. | :19:11. | :19:12. | |
The Blues are desparate to lake their mark in Europe this sdason | :19:13. | :19:15. | |
and while they remain heavily fancied to progress | :19:16. | :19:17. | |
from the group stage, there's plenty of hard work ahead after thdy went | :19:18. | :19:20. | |
down to Jerome Boateng's last minute goal in Bavaria. | :19:21. | :19:39. | |
With the regular season proving to be one of the tightest and lost | :19:40. | :19:42. | |
thrilling in years, excitemdnt levels are through the roof | :19:43. | :19:44. | |
for Super League's play`offs which get underway tonight when Whgan | :19:45. | :19:47. | |
While the winners progress, the losers get a second chance next | :19:48. | :19:50. | |
week but the Warriors have no intention of relying on the | :19:51. | :19:53. | |
We approach it in a special way We have to win this game. We w`nt that | :19:54. | :20:00. | |
weekend. That's how the plaxers approach it. Training has bden | :20:01. | :20:04. | |
intense. The players know it is an important time of year and they want | :20:05. | :20:06. | |
to get back to Old Trafford. Salford Red Devils owner Dr Marwan | :20:07. | :20:13. | |
Koukash says frustrations at the way rugby league is run might c`use him | :20:14. | :20:16. | |
to reconsider how much he invests. The multi`millionaire, who `lso owns | :20:17. | :20:19. | |
a string of racehorses , wants clubs to be able to spend more on players | :20:20. | :20:22. | |
than the current salary cap. On top of that his plans to build | :20:23. | :20:25. | |
a stadium for Swinton Lions were submitted this week and as we | :20:26. | :20:28. | |
reported yesterday he's also close I started by asking him | :20:29. | :20:31. | |
about a disappointing bottol`half Overall, the season has been | :20:32. | :20:35. | |
very disappointing for us. But the calibre | :20:36. | :20:39. | |
of players we have had in the team we should have been at the | :20:40. | :20:41. | |
very least been in the top dight. You mention that you | :20:42. | :20:45. | |
accept you made mistakes. What are those mistakes, | :20:46. | :20:47. | |
in your mind? I'm usually somebody who | :20:48. | :20:50. | |
is careful in what I do. I made others make decisions | :20:51. | :20:56. | |
for me and we ended up prob`bly with Is there not | :20:57. | :21:00. | |
a counter`argument that you employ experts, rugby league experts, | :21:01. | :21:07. | |
to do the playing side and xou are But then I might have emploxed | :21:08. | :21:10. | |
the wrong experts to advise me. What about the crowds here | :21:11. | :21:21. | |
at Salford? We are potentially losing, dvery | :21:22. | :21:24. | |
game, about 2,000 to 3,000 people. If being here keeps fans aw`y | :21:25. | :21:31. | |
then we need to ask why. If you can't get people to | :21:32. | :21:35. | |
work with you then you have Just explain | :21:36. | :21:38. | |
the overall strategy then You've been linked with all sorts | :21:39. | :21:42. | |
of clubs. It will end up with a decent | :21:43. | :21:48. | |
stadium for Swinton to play in. Once we are given the green light | :21:49. | :21:55. | |
then I'll go ahead and complete As for the Australian link, yes I am | :21:56. | :21:59. | |
getting frustrated by the w`y things I might have to reconsider | :22:00. | :22:07. | |
the amount of money I am investing What about the future then | :22:08. | :22:13. | |
for Salford? Where do you see | :22:14. | :22:20. | |
the team being next season? We've got some very exciting people | :22:21. | :22:24. | |
to come into the team I would be very disappointed | :22:25. | :22:29. | |
if we are not up there. It's been | :22:30. | :22:46. | |
the biggest show ever staged at the Lowry Theatre with some of the | :22:47. | :22:49. | |
biggest puppets in the business The critically acclaimed War Horse | :22:50. | :22:55. | |
has had an 18 weeks sell out run It's a tale of love, loss and | :22:56. | :22:58. | |
overcoming unimaginable obstacles. And the main star is a horsd, | :22:59. | :23:09. | |
a big puppet horse. War Horse was written by | :23:10. | :23:15. | |
Michael Morpurgo in 1982. Since then Joey | :23:16. | :23:19. | |
the War Horse has entertaindd Tonight, Michael is joining his | :23:20. | :23:48. | |
beloved Jerry for one night on stage. Did you see the star on the | :23:49. | :23:56. | |
door outside? Have you rehe`rsed yet? I've been doing nothing else. | :23:57. | :24:04. | |
Duane tear my lines? I'll sde if I can remember them. Nine guineas | :24:05. | :24:09. | |
That's it. Do you only have one line? With more than one line.. | :24:10. | :24:17. | |
Although it is only made of cable, leather and steel, | :24:18. | :24:19. | |
when I met Joey a few mnths ago i was pretty terrified of it. | :24:20. | :24:23. | |
Tonight, Michael is sharing the stage with him, | :24:24. | :24:25. | |
I still don't know what it hs. Three people making an animal, live. It on | :24:26. | :24:41. | |
in Germany as we speak. It on in London as we speak now. 100 years | :24:42. | :24:51. | |
after the First World War bdgan Two of the essential capitals that | :24:52. | :24:56. | |
created this holocaust of the war. It is a play about the love of peace | :24:57. | :25:03. | |
and a longing for a reconciliation. After this, the warhorse wagon will | :25:04. | :25:09. | |
be rolling on to South Africa in time for Christmas. | :25:10. | :25:19. | |
Here is someone who never forgets her lines. | :25:20. | :25:30. | |
The further north you are in the region, the better the weather will | :25:31. | :25:38. | |
be. This is why. We have thhs line of whether coming towards us. That | :25:39. | :25:49. | |
will bring Cherry rain. We will get clear and fresh conditions for | :25:50. | :25:54. | |
Sunday. This is how it looks outside our window now. | :25:55. | :26:02. | |
Getting to the coast, most places are fairly gloomy and grey. Pockets | :26:03. | :26:14. | |
of mist could develop. Keep your eye on the showers. They will ptsh | :26:15. | :26:20. | |
further north. Once again, the wall of this cloud cover means that | :26:21. | :26:29. | |
temperatures would drop too far Tomorrow is all about the showers in | :26:30. | :26:32. | |
the southern part of the region They will work their way through and | :26:33. | :26:37. | |
become heavy. The wind is not very strong so those showers are | :26:38. | :26:41. | |
slow`moving. I can't tell you exactly where they will turn up but | :26:42. | :26:46. | |
hopefully not too many placds will see them. There is a lot of cloud | :26:47. | :26:52. | |
cover to start. That will thin and break with bright disguising the | :26:53. | :26:56. | |
afternoon. It won't be brilliantly sunny. We won't see the samd | :26:57. | :27:01. | |
temperatures that we've had over the last couple of days. The lack of | :27:02. | :27:06. | |
sunshine, even though it will brighten up, I think we will see | :27:07. | :27:10. | |
temperatures around 19 Celshus at best. But the weekend, a we`ther | :27:11. | :27:16. | |
front goes through on Saturday. That could be rain. It's affair, Sunday | :27:17. | :27:23. | |
is better. It was like the summer holidays today. Is there likely to | :27:24. | :27:38. | |
be an Indian summer? Somethhng to look forward to. | :27:39. | :27:44. |
