Good evening. | 0:00:13 | 0:00:14 | |
More than ?185,000 has been raised for the children of a couple | 0:00:14 | 0:00:17 | |
from Wirral who had cancer and died within days of each other. | 0:00:17 | 0:00:20 | |
The family of Julie and Mike Bennet shared a picture on social media | 0:00:20 | 0:00:24 | |
of the couple in their last moments at St John's Hospice. | 0:00:24 | 0:00:26 | |
Their dying wish was that their three children should | 0:00:26 | 0:00:29 | |
continue their education. | 0:00:29 | 0:00:30 | |
The poignant photograph that they posted and that was shared | 0:00:30 | 0:00:33 | |
around the world has helped make sure that will happen, | 0:00:33 | 0:00:35 | |
as Andy Gill explains. | 0:00:35 | 0:00:37 | |
Mike and Julie Bennet with their children Luke, | 0:00:37 | 0:00:39 | |
who's 21, 18-year-old Hannah and Oliver, who's 13. | 0:00:39 | 0:00:41 | |
Three children who lost both parents within a week. | 0:00:41 | 0:00:47 | |
They're coming to terms. | 0:00:47 | 0:00:49 | |
It's Monday morning and they are facing the reality | 0:00:49 | 0:00:52 | |
of what has to be done and they are in doing mode, | 0:00:52 | 0:00:55 | |
so they are getting all the affairs in order and they are making | 0:00:55 | 0:00:58 | |
their plans for mum and dad to say their farewells. | 0:00:58 | 0:01:01 | |
Mike Bennet had been diagnosed with cancer three years ago. | 0:01:01 | 0:01:04 | |
His wife's diagnosis came last May. | 0:01:04 | 0:01:06 | |
Their children shared a photograph of their parents' | 0:01:06 | 0:01:09 | |
last moment together at Arrowe Park Hospital in Wirral. | 0:01:09 | 0:01:13 | |
When the couple were admitted earlier this month, staff | 0:01:13 | 0:01:15 | |
realised both were nearing the end of their lives, | 0:01:15 | 0:01:19 | |
so arranged for them to be put in a side room together. | 0:01:19 | 0:01:23 | |
I am really proud of the staff on the ward realising | 0:01:23 | 0:01:26 | |
they needed to do something and quite quickly. | 0:01:26 | 0:01:28 | |
They took their own initiative, they made those plans themselves, | 0:01:28 | 0:01:31 | |
they knew I'd agree with that, we do everything we can to make | 0:01:31 | 0:01:34 | |
the best care for our patients but also in this case | 0:01:34 | 0:01:37 | |
for the three children. | 0:01:37 | 0:01:38 | |
Shortly after the photo was taken, Mr and Mrs Bennet were moved | 0:01:38 | 0:01:40 | |
to a local hospice. | 0:01:40 | 0:01:41 | |
He died a week ago. | 0:01:41 | 0:01:43 | |
Mrs Bennet died on Saturday. | 0:01:43 | 0:01:44 | |
The hospice says it's unusual to have two members of the same | 0:01:44 | 0:01:48 | |
family pass away within such a short space of time, but all patients | 0:01:48 | 0:01:51 | |
are offered the same level of care. | 0:01:51 | 0:01:55 | |
For certain families it might be | 0:01:55 | 0:01:57 | |
things to do with the environment that really matter to them, | 0:01:57 | 0:02:00 | |
so replicating a home environment for them, | 0:02:00 | 0:02:04 | |
music that might be really important to them, photos on the walls, | 0:02:04 | 0:02:07 | |
looking after patients' spirituality and so what keeps them going, | 0:02:07 | 0:02:11 | |
what's important to them as a person. | 0:02:11 | 0:02:15 | |
The couple's final wish was for their children to stay | 0:02:15 | 0:02:17 | |
together at their home in Irby and complete their education. | 0:02:17 | 0:02:21 | |
People have donated to an online fundraising page | 0:02:21 | 0:02:24 | |
to allow them to do that. | 0:02:24 | 0:02:26 | |
Well-wishers have raised more than three times | 0:02:26 | 0:02:28 | |
the original target. | 0:02:28 | 0:02:30 | |
Andy Gill, BBC North West Tonight, Wirral. | 0:02:30 | 0:02:36 | |
Manchester gangster Stephen Akinyemi died | 0:02:36 | 0:02:38 | |
after he was shot through the head. | 0:02:38 | 0:02:40 | |
The man who did it Arran Coghlan said he acted in self defence | 0:02:40 | 0:02:43 | |
after Akinyemi attacked him in his Cheshire home. | 0:02:43 | 0:02:48 | |
Today, a second inquest opened into the killing | 0:02:48 | 0:02:50 | |
after Mr Coghlan said he was unhappy with the original | 0:02:50 | 0:02:52 | |
inquest's open verdict. | 0:02:52 | 0:02:53 | |
Dave Guest reports. | 0:02:53 | 0:02:56 | |
Violence was part and parcel Stephen Akinyemi's life | 0:02:56 | 0:02:59 | |
and he met a violent death. | 0:02:59 | 0:03:01 | |
He was shot and killed during a fight at this luxury home | 0:03:01 | 0:03:03 | |
in Alderley Edge in January 2010. | 0:03:03 | 0:03:05 | |
Arran Coghlan lived there. | 0:03:05 | 0:03:07 | |
He has always insisted Akinyemi was trying to kill him and says | 0:03:07 | 0:03:11 | |
he acted in self defence. | 0:03:12 | 0:03:13 | |
Mr Coghlan was initially charged with the murder | 0:03:13 | 0:03:16 | |
but the charge was later dropped. | 0:03:16 | 0:03:18 | |
He's no stranger to court proceedings. | 0:03:18 | 0:03:20 | |
He's twice faced courts accused of murder. | 0:03:20 | 0:03:23 | |
In 1996 he was cleared of shooting dead Chris Little and seven years | 0:03:23 | 0:03:27 | |
later was cleared of murdering drug dealer David Barnshaw. | 0:03:27 | 0:03:31 | |
In 2011, in an inquest into the death of Stephen Akinyemi, | 0:03:31 | 0:03:35 | |
a coroner recorded an open verdict and expressed doubts | 0:03:35 | 0:03:39 | |
over Arran Coghlan's account of what happened. | 0:03:39 | 0:03:41 | |
Mr Coghlan was not happy. | 0:03:41 | 0:03:43 | |
He launched a legal fight to get a new inquest. | 0:03:43 | 0:03:46 | |
He says the police could have arrested Mr Akinyemi before he went | 0:03:46 | 0:03:50 | |
to his home on that fateful night because they had evidence he'd | 0:03:50 | 0:03:53 | |
committed a violent rape. | 0:03:53 | 0:03:54 | |
Mr Coghlan says they chose not to, even though they knew | 0:03:54 | 0:03:58 | |
there was potential for trouble between the two men. | 0:03:58 | 0:04:01 | |
Arran Coghlan has now got that new inquest. | 0:04:01 | 0:04:05 | |
He arrived in London this morning for the start of what's likely | 0:04:05 | 0:04:07 | |
to be a two week hearing. | 0:04:08 | 0:04:09 | |
Here we are, seven years down the line, two judicial reviews | 0:04:09 | 0:04:13 | |
I have had to fight, we are on our third coroner, | 0:04:13 | 0:04:16 | |
the's see if we can get some truth. | 0:04:16 | 0:04:26 | |
-- let's see if we can get some truth. | 0:04:26 | 0:04:28 | |
The coroner, Bernard Richmond QC, has said that he will consider | 0:04:28 | 0:04:31 | |
whether the police had any prior knowledge or suspicion that events | 0:04:31 | 0:04:34 | |
were going to unfold in the way that they did. | 0:04:34 | 0:04:36 | |
This afternoon, he heard from Stephen Akinyemi's brother, John. | 0:04:36 | 0:04:38 | |
He said his brother routinely wore body armour because he'd | 0:04:38 | 0:04:41 | |
been shot in the past. | 0:04:41 | 0:04:42 | |
But he said he did not know whether his brother | 0:04:42 | 0:04:44 | |
could easily access weapons or whether he carried | 0:04:44 | 0:04:46 | |
them routinely. | 0:04:46 | 0:04:47 | |
could easily access weapons or whether he carried | 0:04:47 | 0:04:49 | |
them routinely. | 0:04:49 | 0:04:50 | |
When asked directly whether his brother was a member | 0:04:50 | 0:04:52 | |
of a gang in Cheetham Hill, he said simply, "he lived | 0:04:52 | 0:04:55 | |
in Cheetham Hill." | 0:04:55 | 0:04:56 | |
Dave Guest, BBC North West Tonight, London. | 0:04:56 | 0:04:58 | |
A police investigation is underway after a suspected arson attack | 0:04:58 | 0:05:00 | |
destroyed a Grade Two listed church in Salford. | 0:05:00 | 0:05:03 | |
The Church of the Ascension had just undergone a refurbishment costing | 0:05:03 | 0:05:06 | |
?250,000 before fire broke out late yesterday evening, | 0:05:06 | 0:05:11 | |
devastating the building. | 0:05:11 | 0:05:12 | |
Parts of the church will now have to be demolished. | 0:05:12 | 0:05:15 | |
Police have released CCTV footage showing a man leaving the scene | 0:05:15 | 0:05:17 | |
around the time the fire broke out and are appealing for information. | 0:05:17 | 0:05:24 | |
So many people's lives are enmeshed in the story of this Church | 0:05:24 | 0:05:30 | |
Church of the Ascension, where they have been | 0:05:30 | 0:05:32 | |
christened, where they have | 0:05:32 | 0:05:34 | |
been married and where funerals have taken place and it has served this | 0:05:34 | 0:05:37 | |
community for nearly 150 years and to lose it in this way | 0:05:37 | 0:05:40 | |
is tragic beyond words. | 0:05:40 | 0:05:46 | |
Meanwhile, officers investigating a fatal house fire | 0:05:46 | 0:05:48 | |
in Withington have found there were no suspicious | 0:05:48 | 0:05:52 | |
circumstances. | 0:05:52 | 0:05:53 | |
Police were called to the house on Parsonage road in the early | 0:05:53 | 0:05:56 | |
hours of Friday morning. | 0:05:56 | 0:05:57 | |
A man and woman, Mohammed and Hasma Awad, sadly died at the scene. | 0:05:57 | 0:06:00 | |
Their children, three girls and a boy all aged under 17, | 0:06:00 | 0:06:02 | |
and a man, remain in hospital in a stable condition. | 0:06:02 | 0:06:08 | |
Overuse of one of our most common medicines is killing thousands | 0:06:08 | 0:06:11 | |
of people in the country every year. | 0:06:11 | 0:06:14 | |
That's the warning from doctors as a new campaign is | 0:06:14 | 0:06:16 | |
launched about antibiotics. | 0:06:16 | 0:06:18 | |
And more of them are prescribed here than anywhere else. | 0:06:18 | 0:06:22 | |
It's claimed around 5,000 people die each year in England | 0:06:22 | 0:06:25 | |
because antibiotics no longer work for some infections. | 0:06:25 | 0:06:29 | |
Earlier, I talked to Dr Rob Barnett, who represents Liverpool GPs, | 0:06:29 | 0:06:32 | |
and asked him what are the dangers of taking antibiotics | 0:06:32 | 0:06:35 | |
when you don't need them? | 0:06:35 | 0:06:38 | |
People use antibiotics for coughs and colds, | 0:06:38 | 0:06:40 | |
which are basically viral infections when they're not needed. | 0:06:40 | 0:06:45 | |
We are going to end up with resistance to antibiotics | 0:06:45 | 0:06:47 | |
and as you have already reported, we are seeing more and more strains | 0:06:47 | 0:06:50 | |
of infection, bacteria, that don't respond to antibiotics | 0:06:50 | 0:06:53 | |
and that is going to cause us problems in the years to come. | 0:06:53 | 0:06:56 | |
So is it too much to say that it is killing people, | 0:06:56 | 0:07:01 | |
this resistance to antibiotics? | 0:07:01 | 0:07:04 | |
Well, the report seems to suggest that we are now seeing something | 0:07:04 | 0:07:08 | |
in the region of about 5,000 deaths a year from antibiotic resistance | 0:07:08 | 0:07:15 | |
and what we really need to do is try and make sure that people | 0:07:15 | 0:07:25 | |
and what we really need to do is try and make sure that people only take | 0:07:26 | 0:07:30 | |
them when it is appropriate and they are the for | 0:07:30 | 0:07:32 | |
the length of time they have been described and doses | 0:07:32 | 0:07:35 | |
they have been prescribed. | 0:07:35 | 0:07:36 | |
We are seeing too many patients who take antibiotics | 0:07:36 | 0:07:38 | |
for only two or three days. | 0:07:38 | 0:07:39 | |
They feel better, stop taking antibiotics and that is | 0:07:39 | 0:07:41 | |
when the bacteria will end up developing a resistance | 0:07:41 | 0:07:44 | |
to antibiotics, so when they are needed they won't work. | 0:07:44 | 0:07:46 | |
This new campaign is saying, you know, don't use them | 0:07:46 | 0:07:48 | |
when you should not use them, but presumably they are being | 0:07:48 | 0:07:51 | |
prescribed antibiotics, so do some doctors need to be | 0:07:51 | 0:07:53 | |
educated about when to prescribe them as well? | 0:07:53 | 0:07:55 | |
I think it is partly about reminding doctors when and when they should | 0:07:55 | 0:07:58 | |
not prescribe antibiotics but it is also about | 0:07:58 | 0:08:00 | |
people's expectations. | 0:08:00 | 0:08:02 | |
A lot of people come to see their doctor expecting | 0:08:02 | 0:08:05 | |
antibiotics and get quite upset if they are not prescribed. | 0:08:05 | 0:08:08 | |
They actually think they are being done out of medication that would do | 0:08:08 | 0:08:12 | |
them some good and the campaign is about reminding people that | 0:08:12 | 0:08:15 | |
for simple viruses, for coughs, colds, flu like symptoms, | 0:08:15 | 0:08:17 | |
antibiotics have no part to play, they just do not work. | 0:08:17 | 0:08:27 | |
An announcement is expected tomorrow on the future of a planned nuclear | 0:08:27 | 0:08:30 | |
power plant next to the Sellafield site in West Cumbria. | 0:08:30 | 0:08:34 | |
The Financial Times reports that Toshiba will explain how much money | 0:08:34 | 0:08:37 | |
it is likely to loseon its US nuclear business and the future | 0:08:37 | 0:08:42 | |
it is likely to lose on its US nuclear business and the future | 0:08:42 | 0:08:45 | |
of its overseas investments. | 0:08:45 | 0:08:46 | |
It could lead to the company withdrawing from the | 0:08:46 | 0:08:48 | |
partnership behind Moorside. | 0:08:48 | 0:08:49 | |
A passenger ferry which collided with a pier in strong | 0:08:49 | 0:08:52 | |
winds on the Isle of Man has resumed service. | 0:08:52 | 0:08:54 | |
The Ben MyChree crashed as it came into Douglas Harbour | 0:08:54 | 0:08:57 | |
yesterday evening. | 0:08:57 | 0:08:58 | |
It escaped with minor damage and will sail | 0:08:58 | 0:09:00 | |
to to Heysham at 8.30am. | 0:09:00 | 0:09:10 | |
-- and set sail at 8.30pm. | 0:09:11 | 0:09:13 | |
In the harbour there was a very strong, prolonged burst of wind | 0:09:13 | 0:09:16 | |
which was way in excess of what was forecast. | 0:09:16 | 0:09:18 | |
There is superficial damage to the vessel. | 0:09:18 | 0:09:20 | |
The railings along deck five, which is the upper car deck, | 0:09:20 | 0:09:22 | |
were damaged and also fire main bursts, which I think is the sort | 0:09:22 | 0:09:25 | |
of spectacular plume of water that everybody is talking | 0:09:25 | 0:09:28 | |
about on the video that was posted. | 0:09:28 | 0:09:29 | |
Manchester City are up to second in the Premier League after a 2-0 | 0:09:29 | 0:09:32 | |
win at Bournemouth tonight. | 0:09:32 | 0:09:33 | |
Raheem Sterling put City ahead just before the half hour mark, | 0:09:33 | 0:09:36 | |
then turned provider for substitute Sergio Aguero, whose touch | 0:09:36 | 0:09:38 | |
was deflected into his own net by Bournemouth defender Tyrone | 0:09:38 | 0:09:41 | |
Tyrone Mings. | 0:09:41 | 0:09:47 | |
That's all the news and sport, but a reminder the Super League Show | 0:09:47 | 0:09:50 | |
is tonight at 11.30pm. | 0:09:50 | 0:09:51 | |
That's it from me now here's Dianne with the weather. | 0:09:51 | 0:09:54 | |
Good evening to you. | 0:09:54 | 0:09:55 | |
Well, it was a bitterly cold, raw day-to-day but there | 0:09:55 | 0:10:00 | |
Well, it was a bitterly cold, raw day today but there | 0:10:00 | 0:10:03 | |
was plenty of sunshine around. | 0:10:03 | 0:10:04 | |
Our weather Watchers pictures really do show the region at its best. | 0:10:04 | 0:10:07 | |
Tonnes of blue sky. | 0:10:07 | 0:10:08 | |
We do see some changes as we head through the next couple of days. | 0:10:08 | 0:10:11 | |
The wind is changing direction pretty much every single day. | 0:10:11 | 0:10:14 | |
It allows much, much milder conditions to come in but I think | 0:10:14 | 0:10:17 | |
from time to time we will see quite a bit of cloud cover. | 0:10:17 | 0:10:20 | |
And that's the story right now. | 0:10:20 | 0:10:21 | |
It is a bit of a 50-50 split. | 0:10:21 | 0:10:23 | |
If you have got clear skies, you will hang onto them for a short | 0:10:23 | 0:10:26 | |
while, but the clouds rolls in rolls out. | 0:10:26 | 0:10:28 | |
Over the highest level routes we could see a little bit of mist, | 0:10:28 | 0:10:31 | |
potentially a little bit of fog. | 0:10:32 | 0:10:33 | |
But the success story tonight, temperatures. | 0:10:33 | 0:10:34 | |
Two and three Celsius rather than anything to much lower | 0:10:34 | 0:10:37 | |
than that I think rurally maybe down to a one or a zero here or there. | 0:10:37 | 0:10:41 | |
Tomorrow morning, some sunshine to start the day. | 0:10:41 | 0:10:43 | |
I don't think it is going to last but here and there | 0:10:43 | 0:10:45 | |
you will see some blue sky. | 0:10:45 | 0:10:47 | |
Not the blue sky that we saw today, you won't see anywhere near as much, | 0:10:47 | 0:10:50 | |
but is still not a bad picture. | 0:10:50 | 0:10:52 | |
However, going through the afternoon, the cloud will build | 0:10:52 | 0:10:54 | |
and towards the tail end of the day one of two places will | 0:10:54 | 0:10:57 | |
will see some light rain. | 0:10:57 | 0:10:59 | |
The temperature is getting better, seven and a Celsius. | 0:10:59 | 0:11:01 |
