0:00:20 > 0:00:21Good evening.
0:00:21 > 0:00:25A man has appeared in court charged with the murder of a woman working
0:00:25 > 0:00:27at an Aldi supermarket in North Yorkshire.
0:00:27 > 0:00:29Neville Hord, who's 44, was remanded in custody
0:00:29 > 0:00:32by magistrates in York.
0:00:32 > 0:00:35Jodie Willsher was stabbed to death in Skipton on Thursday.
0:00:35 > 0:00:44Our correspondent Sarah Walton sent this report.
0:00:44 > 0:00:48Arriving at York Magistrates' Court, 44-year-old Neville Hord appeared in
0:00:48 > 0:00:52the dock charged with murder. He is accused of attacking 30-year-old
0:00:52 > 0:01:00Jodie Willsher at the Aldi store in Skipton where she was working on
0:01:00 > 0:01:03Thursday afternoon. She received serious injuries and died at the
0:01:03 > 0:01:08scene. There were no relatives in court this morning, and Neville
0:01:08 > 0:01:11Hord, dressed in a blue T-shirt and grey shorts, spoke only to confirm
0:01:11 > 0:01:15his name, age and address. He didn't enter a plea and was remanded in
0:01:15 > 0:01:21custody. In a statement, Mrs Wilshire's husband Malcolm said his
0:01:21 > 0:01:26wife always had an amazing smile on her face and was a doting mother and
0:01:26 > 0:01:31loving wife. At the store where Jodie Willsher work, colleagues have
0:01:31 > 0:01:35described her as much loved and popular. Staff returned to the store
0:01:35 > 0:01:39tonight, but the store remains closed. People have been arriving to
0:01:39 > 0:01:45meet flowers and messages for Jodie Willsher, a popular member of staff.
0:01:45 > 0:01:48One regular shopper delivered a card for the workers who lost a loved
0:01:48 > 0:01:55colleague.People who shop here shop regularly, and they know the star.
0:01:55 > 0:02:05The staff are so good. The manager is always so helpful. -- they know
0:02:05 > 0:02:08the staff. Neville Hord will next appear at Leeds Crown Court on the
0:02:08 > 0:02:1328th of December.
0:02:13 > 0:02:15At least 200 people have died after a tropical storm
0:02:15 > 0:02:16struck the southern Philippines.
0:02:16 > 0:02:18The country's second largest island - Mindanao -
0:02:18 > 0:02:20bore the brunt of the storm, which caused flash
0:02:20 > 0:02:21floods and landslides.
0:02:21 > 0:02:23One entire village has been completely buried.
0:02:23 > 0:02:26Andy Moore reports.
0:02:26 > 0:02:28Clinging to the neck of his rescuer, a young
0:02:28 > 0:02:29boy is carried across the
0:02:29 > 0:02:31floodwaters.
0:02:31 > 0:02:33There was little sign of official help here, just
0:02:33 > 0:02:36villagers doing their best to rescue each other with fragile ropes.
0:02:36 > 0:02:38In a country used to devastating storms,
0:02:38 > 0:02:43this took many by surprise.
0:02:43 > 0:02:44The authorities said too many people had
0:02:44 > 0:02:47ignored warnings to leave coastal areas and river banks.
0:02:47 > 0:02:49Many of the casualties were on the main southern
0:02:49 > 0:02:54island.
0:02:54 > 0:02:57This man said houses were getting flooded but people couldn't
0:02:57 > 0:02:59escape, so they got caught in the strong
0:02:59 > 0:03:01currents and swept away.
0:03:01 > 0:03:04Many places were hit by landslides.
0:03:04 > 0:03:07Flimsy houses were buried beneath tonnes of debris.
0:03:07 > 0:03:09The Red Cross is helping coordinate the relief
0:03:09 > 0:03:17effort.
0:03:17 > 0:03:20We have already provided water and food, and we have been
0:03:20 > 0:03:23distributing non-food items, blankets, mosquito nets and hygiene
0:03:23 > 0:03:28kits for those who are in the evacuation
0:03:28 > 0:03:30centres to alleviate the
0:03:30 > 0:03:36suffering of many of the folks there.
0:03:36 > 0:03:39The Philippines is battered by about 20 typhoons every year.
0:03:39 > 0:03:44This particular storm is not over yet.
0:03:44 > 0:03:49It's now heading towards the popular tourist island of Palawan.
0:03:49 > 0:03:52As it passes over warm, tropical waters, its winds are set to grow
0:03:52 > 0:03:53again in strength.
0:03:53 > 0:03:56Andy Moore, BBC News.
0:03:56 > 0:03:58The Transport Secretary, Chris Grayling, says the Government
0:03:58 > 0:04:00is consulting on a new system of road charging for
0:04:00 > 0:04:01heavy goods lorries.
0:04:01 > 0:04:04Drivers would be charged per mile, in a move that replaced
0:04:04 > 0:04:07some existing taxes.
0:04:07 > 0:04:09There are no plans for a similar system for private cars.
0:04:09 > 0:04:10Our transport correspondent, Richard
0:04:10 > 0:04:12Westcott, is here.
0:04:12 > 0:04:16What's the thinking behind this?
0:04:16 > 0:04:20The Government argues it might make things more fair, so they get a lot
0:04:20 > 0:04:25of complaints from British hauliers saying, foreign companies can come
0:04:25 > 0:04:28over with a full tank of fuel and they won't have paid a lot of duty
0:04:28 > 0:04:31on it, work for a couple of days and go home, and they are not
0:04:31 > 0:04:34contributing enough to the upkeep of the roads, because lorries do a lot
0:04:34 > 0:04:39of damage to the road. They suggest this could be a fairer way of doing
0:04:39 > 0:04:43it - get rid of all the other taxes and charge per mile. The hauliers
0:04:43 > 0:04:50argue it is an excuse to charge them. The bigger question is, is
0:04:50 > 0:04:54this the tip of the iceberg? People are thinking, if it goes well for
0:04:54 > 0:04:58trucks, maybe they will bring in toll roads for ordinary people, cars
0:04:58 > 0:05:01and vans. I can't see that happening, and the Government flatly
0:05:01 > 0:05:07deny they are looking at that today. People watching this will think that
0:05:07 > 0:05:11ten years ago, Tony Blair tried to do that, try to bring in toll roads
0:05:11 > 0:05:15and nearly 2 million people signed a petition against it. There were News
0:05:15 > 0:05:19campaigns and outrage. It is a brave Government that will talk about toll
0:05:19 > 0:05:20roads for ordinary drivers.
0:05:20 > 0:05:23London Zoo has been closed today after a fire in the early
0:05:23 > 0:05:24hours of the morning.
0:05:24 > 0:05:27A number of staff were treated at the scene for smoke
0:05:27 > 0:05:29inhalation and shock, as the blaze was brought under
0:05:29 > 0:05:30control by 70 firefighters.
0:05:30 > 0:05:37Adina Campbell reports.
0:05:37 > 0:05:41Rising flames and large plumes of smoke were captured on social media
0:05:41 > 0:05:44just before dawn. The fire started in the animal adventure cafe and
0:05:44 > 0:05:50then spread to a nearby shop. At its height more than 70 firefighters
0:05:50 > 0:05:57dealt with the fire and brought it under control just after 9am. One
0:05:57 > 0:06:01person was taken to hospital and eight others were treated at the
0:06:01 > 0:06:07scene for smoke inhalation and minor injuries.This is quite a complex
0:06:07 > 0:06:13site, and we've had to put certain cordons in place for safety, because
0:06:13 > 0:06:18the building has been so seriously damaged.Vets at the zoo confirmed
0:06:18 > 0:06:25that a nine-year-old aardvark called Misha died in the fire. Four missing
0:06:25 > 0:06:30meerkats are also thought to have been killed.We are all really upset
0:06:30 > 0:06:33by this incident, because this is one of our most loved animals in the
0:06:33 > 0:06:41zoo, Misha and the meerkats are also held in great affection by all of us
0:06:41 > 0:06:46who work here run by those who love London zoo.For those who turned up
0:06:46 > 0:06:50today, it wasn't the Christmas visit they had hoped for.We travelled
0:06:50 > 0:06:55down from Nottingham today.That must be disappointing.It is a bit,
0:06:55 > 0:07:00but as long as the animals are OK. We are very disappointed, we came
0:07:00 > 0:07:06from a long way, from Brazil, to see it. And sad. Poor animals.Some of
0:07:06 > 0:07:10the staff who live on site here were called to the scene immediately and
0:07:10 > 0:07:14started moving the animals to safety. Today, the zoo has been
0:07:14 > 0:07:22closed. It would normally have been a very busy day, being so close to
0:07:22 > 0:07:25Christmas. Tonight, staff have confirmed that the zoo will be open
0:07:25 > 0:07:28tomorrow. Three quarters of the cafe and shop has been affected by the
0:07:28 > 0:07:33fire, as well as have the roof. The cause is still unclear.
0:07:33 > 0:07:35Leon Bernicoff, one of the stars of the TV show
0:07:35 > 0:07:38Gogglebox has died at the age of 83.
0:07:38 > 0:07:40The retired teacher and his wife June were one
0:07:40 > 0:07:42of the first couples to join the Channel 4 programme
0:07:42 > 0:07:44when it launched in 2013.
0:07:44 > 0:07:50The broadcaster said he died in hospital after a short illness.
0:07:50 > 0:07:52California's deadly wildfire has now become the largest
0:07:52 > 0:07:54in the state's recorded history.
0:07:54 > 0:07:56The blaze, which has been burning for more
0:07:56 > 0:07:57than two weeks, has scorched
0:07:57 > 0:08:01an area greater than New York City, Brussels and Paris combined.
0:08:01 > 0:08:03Among those tackling the flames are thousands of prisoners,
0:08:03 > 0:08:06some of whom have been given a new sense of purpose by the work,
0:08:06 > 0:08:12as our correspondent James Cook reports.
0:08:12 > 0:08:14It's pretty challenging.
0:08:14 > 0:08:18Sometimes we're right there, right next to the fire.
0:08:18 > 0:08:21Compared to being in prison and being here, it's
0:08:21 > 0:08:24completely different.
0:08:24 > 0:08:24Here you feel free.
0:08:24 > 0:08:28You're out in the world.
0:08:28 > 0:08:31The biggest change for me is mental, because I've never pushed myself
0:08:31 > 0:08:39as hard, ever in life.
0:08:39 > 0:08:49California has 4,000 inmate firefighters, men and women.
0:08:49 > 0:08:52Cutting firebreaks is risky work - two have died this year.
0:08:52 > 0:08:59But there are rewards too in reduced sentences and a sense of purpose.
0:08:59 > 0:09:02After being in this programme, I feel like I've been rehabilitated,
0:09:02 > 0:09:05and I feel like I can go out there and achieve anything
0:09:05 > 0:09:06I want to because I've done this.
0:09:06 > 0:09:09This is so hard.
0:09:09 > 0:09:11We were allowed inside this prison camp in Malibu.
0:09:11 > 0:09:14There are no walls or fences here.
0:09:14 > 0:09:16Violent or volatile prisoners are not allowed
0:09:16 > 0:09:20to join the programme.
0:09:20 > 0:09:24With a job like this, there is only time to think about the work.
0:09:24 > 0:09:26Latoya Najar is serving four years for causing the death
0:09:26 > 0:09:28of her seven-year-old son in a drunken car crash.
0:09:28 > 0:09:32The attraction for me was because of my crime,
0:09:32 > 0:09:35I could come out here and do something positive.
0:09:35 > 0:09:39It's challenging mentally to get over something.
0:09:39 > 0:09:43I'm never going to get over it, but to try to ease my mind
0:09:43 > 0:09:46and this has helped.
0:09:46 > 0:09:49With California facing more frequent and more destructive fires,
0:09:49 > 0:09:54some critics call this slave labour.
0:09:54 > 0:09:56But the project is voluntary, it may reduce re-offending and it
0:09:56 > 0:09:59provides some measure of redemption.
0:09:59 > 0:10:01Everyone is like, "We love you firefighters."
0:10:01 > 0:10:05We all wave back and we wave to the kids.
0:10:05 > 0:10:12It's amazing, yes.
