:00:00. > :00:14.That is all from us. Don't forget, first look
:00:15. > :00:22.Good evening. A 15`year`old boy has appeared in
:00:23. > :00:25.court charged with the murder of schoolgirl Shereka Marsh at the
:00:26. > :00:30.weekend. Shereka, who was also 15, was shot in the neck at a house in
:00:31. > :00:33.Hackney in East London. Jo Black reports.
:00:34. > :00:41.Shereka Marsh was a typical teenager. Her friends say she was
:00:42. > :00:45.bubbly, fun and loved by everyone. But the 15`year`old was killed after
:00:46. > :00:48.she was shot in the neck at this house in Hackney on Saturday
:00:49. > :00:51.afternoon. Just before 4pm, the emergency services were called to
:00:52. > :00:56.this house. The caller said a female had been shot. When medics arrived
:00:57. > :01:00.they tried to resuscitate Shereka, but she died at the scene. We now
:01:01. > :01:05.know that caller was a 15`year`old boy, the very person charged with
:01:06. > :01:09.her murder. After the shooting, detectives recovered a gun and at
:01:10. > :01:16.court today the boy was remanded into youth detention. He'll appear
:01:17. > :01:19.before a Crown Court on Wednesday. Today at the school where Shereka
:01:20. > :01:26.was studying for her GCSEs, prayers were said at an assembly by teachers
:01:27. > :01:30.and school friends. Shereka was one of our shining stars. She was an
:01:31. > :01:36.engaging, bubbly personality. She would have done really well in her
:01:37. > :01:39.GCSEs this year. She was well liked by everyone in the community and
:01:40. > :01:46.this has just become the most devastating loss for us. Shereka was
:01:47. > :01:49.such a model pupil, she was even chosen to show guests around her
:01:50. > :01:57.school, including the Jamaican High Commissioner. A short life full of
:01:58. > :02:01.promise, tragically cut short. It's emerged the ceiling collapse at
:02:02. > :02:06.the Apollo Theatre which injured nearly 80 people was caused by the
:02:07. > :02:10.deterioration of materials. A letter seen by the BBC reveals the ceiling
:02:11. > :02:14.was held together with 100`year`old hessian sack`cloth and plaster,
:02:15. > :02:17.which had weakened over time. Westminster Council has now written
:02:18. > :02:22.to other venues urging inspections. Here's Tarah Welsh.
:02:23. > :02:26.It was a dramatic scene. But what happened here in December wasn't
:02:27. > :02:30.part of the show. As a packed audience watched a performance,
:02:31. > :02:34.parts of the ceiling fell in. Dozens of people were taken to hospital,
:02:35. > :02:38.even buses were used to take them there. Westminster Council is still
:02:39. > :02:41.investigating but a letter sent from its health and safety team said it
:02:42. > :02:45.appears hessian wadding mixed into the plaster in the ceiling became
:02:46. > :02:49.weak over time and that led to the sudden collapse. Suspended ornate
:02:50. > :02:53.ceilings it said should be inspected at as a matter of urgency by a
:02:54. > :03:03.historic plaster specialist and structural engineer. There are a
:03:04. > :03:06.number of roofs of a similar construction since the late 1800s,
:03:07. > :03:08.this has been the standard model for constructing decorative plaster
:03:09. > :03:11.ceilings. But they are all very different, they are all different
:03:12. > :03:15.sizes spans and numbers of panels numbers are panels and all subject
:03:16. > :03:18.to an inspection both on the part of the owners but also something we
:03:19. > :03:22.require every three years. So there is a high level of confidence these
:03:23. > :03:27.things are being looked at and made sound. And the warning doesn't mean
:03:28. > :03:32.all old ceilings need to be pulled down. People have to remember this
:03:33. > :03:35.material has stood up for a very long period of time and there's no
:03:36. > :03:38.reason to destroy many of our country's heritage assets just
:03:39. > :03:41.because there is a process that needs to be taking place about
:03:42. > :03:44.renewal and strengthening. So there's no reason why sometimes with
:03:45. > :03:49.a limited amount of work, the ceilings can carry on their lives
:03:50. > :03:54.for many hundreds of years in the future. The owner of the Apollo did
:03:55. > :03:57.not want to comment on the letter, but the theatre has now been
:03:58. > :04:01.refurbished and will reopen on Wednesday. The question is will the
:04:02. > :04:04.cost of all this work be added to the price of our theatre tickets. I
:04:05. > :04:08.spoke to one theatre critic earlier and he said it absolutely shouldn't
:04:09. > :04:12.because this is an industry that makes plenty of money. Westminster
:04:13. > :04:15.Council has said this is a safety precaution and people should
:04:16. > :04:21.continue going to theatres in the capital.
:04:22. > :04:26.Thousands of people turned out for the funeral of RMT Union Leader Bob
:04:27. > :04:29.Crow, who died earlier this month. His coffin was carried by a
:04:30. > :04:33.horse`drawn carriage through the streets of east London. Our
:04:34. > :04:45.Transport Correspondent Tom Edwards reports.
:04:46. > :04:50.Thousands lined the road to the cemetery with their flags and
:04:51. > :04:53.banners to pay their respects to one of their most well`known leaders,
:04:54. > :05:02.Bob Crow. They came from all over the country. Bob Crow was many
:05:03. > :05:05.things. He fought for the people, his own people but a lot of other
:05:06. > :05:15.people as well. He was a very nice man. His legacy, he built the union
:05:16. > :05:19.up from 50,000 members to 80,000 plus members and it will carry on
:05:20. > :05:24.after he has gone. Do you think the RMT will still have a strong voice?
:05:25. > :05:30.Absolutely. On the London Underground, many posters at the
:05:31. > :05:34.stations and many workers wore black ties and at 1:30pm there was a
:05:35. > :05:41.minute's silence. The funeral procession started at midday in
:05:42. > :05:44.Woodford Green where he lived. One of the most well`known union
:05:45. > :05:50.leaders, in London his strike tack ticks on the tube were divisive
:05:51. > :05:53.uncontroversial, but his members benefited and today they paid
:05:54. > :05:57.tribute. He was passionate about looking after working people and
:05:58. > :06:01.their families but also about the travelling public. They will miss
:06:02. > :06:08.him. It is not just his own members and the movement, because he is
:06:09. > :06:12.irreplaceable as an union leader, but he was a passionate campaigner
:06:13. > :06:19.for transport, working people and for a decent, safe underground
:06:20. > :06:23.system. The funeral service was this afternoon private. Tributes will be
:06:24. > :06:29.paid to Bob Crow on May Day, with a special event planned for the
:06:30. > :06:34.capital. Just before the weather, quick
:06:35. > :06:40.reminder that late kick`off has a round`up of the football action at
:06:41. > :06:43.1125 p.m.. That's it from me, I will wish you a good night and hand you
:06:44. > :06:53.for the weather. It is spring but it won't always
:06:54. > :06:57.feel like that. There will be a cold wind whipping to the North Sea to
:06:58. > :07:04.the Thames Estuary in the second part of this week. At the moment we
:07:05. > :07:07.have rain edging in. It is just getting onto the M25 at the moment
:07:08. > :07:13.and will dress onto the rest of us as we go through the night, with
:07:14. > :07:16.temperatures down to four or five degrees, but not as cold as last
:07:17. > :07:22.night. As we go through the rush hour tomorrow, there will be
:07:23. > :07:26.moderate bursts of rain. This weather front will recede to the
:07:27. > :07:31.West again so there could use some brightness to the east of London in
:07:32. > :07:32.the second part of the day. Feeling cool with temperatures
