0:01:38 > 0:01:43News at Six. One of the UK's eight oil refineries has gone bust,
0:01:43 > 0:01:48prompting fears that it could lead to a disruption in fuel supplies.
0:01:48 > 0:01:52More than 800 jobs at the plant in Coryton, Essex are now at risk. The
0:01:52 > 0:01:55refinery supplies a tenth of all the fuel in Britain. Industry
0:01:55 > 0:02:01experts are already predicting a hike in the price at the pump. Our
0:02:01 > 0:02:05industry correspondent John Moylan has the story.
0:02:05 > 0:02:09This huge complex is a key part of our energy infrastructure. But
0:02:09 > 0:02:14tonight it's in the hands of administrators, its future and that
0:02:14 > 0:02:18of its 1,000 employees is now uncertain. A lot of apprehension.
0:02:18 > 0:02:23People don't know what's going to happen, insecure about their future.
0:02:23 > 0:02:29But I think there's a little bit of quiet optimism that people do
0:02:29 > 0:02:33believe that they are a viable concern, as a refinery, and very
0:02:33 > 0:02:38hopeful that something can be done to solve the situation and a buyer
0:02:38 > 0:02:42may be found. The problems here were triggered by the bankruptcy of
0:02:42 > 0:02:48the plant's Swiss parent company. Coryton is one of the UK's eight
0:02:48 > 0:02:52refineries. The plant can refine around 17 ra,000 -- 175,000 barrels
0:02:52 > 0:02:57a day, around 10% of UK fuel needs. Should we be worried about
0:02:57 > 0:03:02supplies? Supplies in the UK should be absolutely fine. Our reserves
0:03:02 > 0:03:06exceed two months' work at any given time, so even if every
0:03:06 > 0:03:09refinery closed simultaneously we would have adequate. The realish
0:03:09 > 0:03:13sue a logistics issue, those supplies are around the country in
0:03:13 > 0:03:18reserve, they've all to be moved to the right places at the right time.
0:03:18 > 0:03:22But Coryton also provides around 20% of the fuel in London and the
0:03:22 > 0:03:28south-east. BP is its biggest customer, today the company
0:03:28 > 0:03:32insisted it had no supply problems across its network. But there were
0:03:32 > 0:03:36problems elsewhere. In Lincolnshire around 100 tanker drivers started
0:03:36 > 0:03:42seven days of strike action. It's all led some to warn of higher
0:03:42 > 0:03:46prices on the forecourts in the days to come. With the petrol plus
0:03:46 > 0:03:50refinery in some doubt, we have tanker drivers striking, all of
0:03:50 > 0:03:57that is going to mean further pressure on price as we have to
0:03:57 > 0:04:02import more product. I can see a new record for diesel within days.
0:04:02 > 0:04:06At Coryton's refinery this is how... Once refineries were owned by the
0:04:06 > 0:04:09big oil giants, but in recent years they've been sold to smaller
0:04:09 > 0:04:12independent firms, which don't have such deep pockets when times get
0:04:12 > 0:04:16tough. Tonight some petrol companies are
0:04:16 > 0:04:21seeking other sources of supply, and the search for a buyer for this
0:04:21 > 0:04:26plant continues. And John is at the refinery now.
0:04:26 > 0:04:29Presumably there are talks going on, what's the latest? Well, today the
0:04:29 > 0:04:33plant has been continuing to operate. It's refining crude oil
0:04:33 > 0:04:37and that's sort of the plan. So they're talking to the companies
0:04:37 > 0:04:41who take fuel out of here, the likes of BP and talking to giants
0:04:41 > 0:04:44who bring crude oil in here to try and ensure those contracts continue,
0:04:44 > 0:04:48and that fuel continues to flow through and that hopefully supplies
0:04:48 > 0:04:52could start coming out of the plant in the next few days. Of course,
0:04:52 > 0:04:55longer-term what they really need here probably is a new buyer. The
0:04:55 > 0:04:58good news on that front is that this is a profitable plant, whereas
0:04:58 > 0:05:01many across Europe are not, and there are reports tonight that
0:05:01 > 0:05:05there have been some expressions of interest in the plant. But all of
0:05:05 > 0:05:08that will take sometime. You have to say that tonight the future of
0:05:08 > 0:05:16this really important part of our energy infrastructure still looks
0:05:16 > 0:05:18uncertain. New figures on Britain's economic
0:05:18 > 0:05:21prospects have been released today and they make for some gloomy
0:05:21 > 0:05:24reading. The International Monetary Fund has revised down its forecast
0:05:24 > 0:05:26for growth here. It comes on the day that Britain's debt topped a
0:05:26 > 0:05:31trillion pounds. As our economics editor, Stephanie Flanders, reports,
0:05:31 > 0:05:35we are not alone. The IMF is warning of a tough road ahead for
0:05:35 > 0:05:39the eurozone. The International Monetary Fund
0:05:39 > 0:05:45doesn't know what's going to happen to the global economy in 2012, but
0:05:45 > 0:05:49it's not looking good. Its latest forecast say the global recovery
0:05:49 > 0:05:55has stalled, down side risks are intensifying and the financial
0:05:55 > 0:05:59systems deep into the danger zone. It's all thanks to the crisis
0:05:59 > 0:06:06across the Channel. The epicentre of the danger is Europe, but the
0:06:06 > 0:06:11rest of the world is increasingly affected. There's an even greater
0:06:11 > 0:06:16danger, namely that the European crisis intensifies, in this case
0:06:16 > 0:06:21the world could be plunged into another recession. Where do we fit
0:06:21 > 0:06:26into this gloomy picture? The answer is somewhere in the middle.
0:06:26 > 0:06:29The funds still expects the US economy to grow in 2012, that's not
0:06:29 > 0:06:35what President Obama would be hoping for, but it's a lot better
0:06:35 > 0:06:39than most. The forecast for the UK this year has been cut to just 0.6%,
0:06:39 > 0:06:44slightly less than the official forecast. And even that's better
0:06:44 > 0:06:50than the eurozone, which is expecting to shrink slightly in
0:06:50 > 0:06:542012, with much sharper downturns for countries like Spain and Italy.
0:06:54 > 0:07:00European finance Ministers disappointed the markets today by
0:07:00 > 0:07:04failing to reach a deal on Greek debt, but it's not just Greece, the
0:07:04 > 0:07:07IMF says debt, private and public, is weighing on all of the advanced
0:07:07 > 0:07:14economies, and so are Government efforts to get the debt under
0:07:14 > 0:07:19control. Increasing debt is a marathon, not a sprint. Going too
0:07:19 > 0:07:24fast will kill growth and further derail the recovery. It is useful
0:07:24 > 0:07:28to remember that it took more than two decades to successfully
0:07:28 > 0:07:32decrease debt from its World War II levels.
0:07:32 > 0:07:42Does that mean the fund wants the Government to ease up on cutting
0:07:42 > 0:07:45
0:07:45 > 0:07:49our deficit? Well, yes. Today the UK Government's debt rose
0:07:49 > 0:07:55to over a trillion pounds, believe it or not that's below average for
0:07:55 > 0:08:00an economy of our size, but it's still the equivalent of �16,000 for
0:08:00 > 0:08:03everyone in the country. It has hit a new high but that was expected.
0:08:03 > 0:08:06The positive news is the monthly figures are starting to come down
0:08:06 > 0:08:11and down considerably. So if that does offer the Government more room
0:08:11 > 0:08:15to offer a fiscal stimulus that's good news for the UK. The message
0:08:15 > 0:08:19from the IMF today is he shouldn't expect a lot more good news on
0:08:19 > 0:08:28borrowing or the economy, if the world can't put the eurozone crisis
0:08:28 > 0:08:31hyped it -- behind it. Police are investigating the death
0:08:31 > 0:08:33of a sixth person which they think may be linked to saline drip
0:08:33 > 0:08:36contamination at Stepping Hill Hospital in Stockport. Detectives
0:08:36 > 0:08:39believe 73-year-old John Beeley was among the 21 people poisoned with
0:08:39 > 0:08:45insulin last July. A 46-year-old nurse has been arrested and bailed
0:08:45 > 0:08:48in connection with the investigation.
0:08:48 > 0:08:51The source of a deadly infection that has claimed the lives of three
0:08:51 > 0:08:56babies at the Royal Maternity Hospital in Belfast has been traced
0:08:56 > 0:08:59to the taps in the neo-natal unit. All of the taps and connecting
0:08:59 > 0:09:05pipework are to be removed to eliminate all trace of the pseudo-
0:09:05 > 0:09:08monas bacterium. A �10,000 reward for information is
0:09:08 > 0:09:11being offered by police investigating the escape of a
0:09:11 > 0:09:14murder suspect from a prison van. John Anslow, who is 31, got away
0:09:14 > 0:09:19when the vehicle taking him to court was ambushed near Bromsgrove,
0:09:19 > 0:09:22in Birmingham on Monday. Let's get the latest from Daniel Boettcher
0:09:22 > 0:09:28who joins us now from outside Staffordshire Police headquarters.
0:09:28 > 0:09:33Are the police any closer to finding this man, Daniel? Well,
0:09:33 > 0:09:36it's almost 36 hours since he escaped. Police have not found him
0:09:37 > 0:09:41but they say their investigation continues to move quickly, they're
0:09:41 > 0:09:45following several lines of inquiry. He escaped yesterday morning when
0:09:45 > 0:09:50the van that was taking him from prison near Redditch to Stafford
0:09:50 > 0:09:52Crown Court was stopped by a gang of masked men armed with sledge
0:09:52 > 0:09:59hammers. Police are interested in the movement of two cars they
0:09:59 > 0:10:02believe were used by the gang in the escape, one was later found
0:10:02 > 0:10:07abandoned and a silver Mercedes. Police have offered a �10,000
0:10:07 > 0:10:12reward for information that leads to the arrest of John Anslow and
0:10:12 > 0:10:17this afternoon we got an update on the latest in this inquiry from the
0:10:17 > 0:10:21detective superintendent. Last night search warrants were
0:10:21 > 0:10:26executed at five homes in the West Midlands area. We have recovered
0:10:26 > 0:10:32some property following the searches and this is now being
0:10:32 > 0:10:38further examined. We also arrested a 44-year-old man from the Tipton
0:10:38 > 0:10:42area last night on suspicion of assisting an offender.
0:10:42 > 0:10:46They give -- to give you a sense of the scope of the inquiry police are
0:10:46 > 0:10:48liaising with other forces in the UK, also with the UK Border Agency
0:10:48 > 0:10:56and with authorities in other countries, too.
0:10:56 > 0:10:59Thank you. The trial of the Spurs manager,
0:10:59 > 0:11:02Harry Redknapp, has been told that he failed to declare his offshore
0:11:02 > 0:11:05bank account for six years, only registering it with tax officials
0:11:05 > 0:11:07two months after he'd been arrested. Mr Redknapp denies two charges of
0:11:07 > 0:11:10tax evasion. From Southwark Crown Court, here's our sports

0:11:39 > 0:11:42by Redknapp and Mandaric, the former Portsmouth owner, about why
0:11:42 > 0:11:46the money was put there in the first place. The prosecution have
0:11:46 > 0:11:53pointed to the transfer of Peter Crouch, they claim that Harry
0:11:53 > 0:11:56Redknapp was unhappy about his 5% share of the profit, demanding 10%.
0:11:56 > 0:12:00Mandaric told a reporter from the News of the World who got hold of
0:12:00 > 0:12:04some of this information that the transfer was nothing to do with
0:12:04 > 0:12:08bonuses, not money from football. But Harry Redknapp told the same
0:12:08 > 0:12:10reporter that the money was paid to me as a bonus for selling Peter
0:12:10 > 0:12:15Crouch. The prosecution told the jury that
0:12:15 > 0:12:19Harry Redknapp had kept quiet about his Monaco account, in fact he
0:12:19 > 0:12:22hadn't told his own accountant for four and a half years. Later in
0:12:22 > 0:12:25interviews with the police Harry Redknapp said that was because he
0:12:25 > 0:12:29didn't realise there was any money still left in the account. He
0:12:29 > 0:12:36claimed that Mandaric had told him that the investment there had been
0:12:36 > 0:12:41a disaster, totally wiped out. Harry Redknapp and Mandaric both
0:12:41 > 0:12:50deny using the account in Monaco to avoid paying taxes. The trial is

0:13:44 > 0:13:47embryoes in the treatment of eye disease, the experts say helping
0:13:47 > 0:13:51the blind to see again is a long way off, but two patients who
0:13:51 > 0:13:54received stem cell injections into their retinas had slight
0:13:55 > 0:13:57improvement in their sight. Our medical correspondent Fergus Walsh
0:13:57 > 0:14:01is here. How important are these latest trials?
0:14:01 > 0:14:05Well, we have to be cautious because the trial involved just two
0:14:05 > 0:14:09people and and its aim was to see whether the treatment was safe, not
0:14:09 > 0:14:13if it was effective. A newly fertilised human embryo has the
0:14:13 > 0:14:17potential to turn into any tissue, that's why many scientists believe
0:14:17 > 0:14:22the stem cells inside offer potential to treat a vast range of
0:14:22 > 0:14:27diseases. But the destruction of embryoes just a few days old has
0:14:27 > 0:14:31made it controversial. American scientists manipulated embryo stem
0:14:31 > 0:14:37cells to become become specialised eye cells and injected them into
0:14:37 > 0:14:41the back of the eye of two patients. Their vision is so poor their
0:14:41 > 0:14:46registered blind and the hope was the treatment might restore some of
0:14:46 > 0:14:50their damaged eye cells. Both patients noticed a slight
0:14:50 > 0:14:55improvement in vision, that might be down to chance, but importantly,
0:14:55 > 0:14:59they suffered no ill-effects. Marcus Hilton, who runs a bar in

0:19:11 > 0:19:17Why not have special beaches for women to swim and we can also have
0:19:17 > 0:19:22special beaches for men. It may not be what Egypt's liberals and its
0:19:22 > 0:19:27Western friends want to hear, but out here, such friends -- views are
0:19:27 > 0:19:30extremely common and can no longer be ignored.
0:19:30 > 0:19:33A British soldier serving with the 200 Signals Squadron has died at a
0:19:33 > 0:19:37patrol base in the Nahr-e Saraj district of Helmand province. The
0:19:37 > 0:19:41Ministry of Defence said the death was not thought to be the result of
0:19:41 > 0:19:44hostile action. The soldier's family has been informed.
0:19:44 > 0:19:49Divers searching the wreck of the Costa Concordia cruise liner have
0:19:49 > 0:19:52found another body. It brings to 16 the number of bodies found on the
0:19:52 > 0:19:55ship which ran aground on the island of Giglio 11 days ago.
0:19:55 > 0:20:00Salvage operators have attached a platform to the hulk and are
0:20:00 > 0:20:03working on ways of draining the fuel from the wreck.
0:20:03 > 0:20:07The Sunday Times has handed police emails linked to the investigation
0:20:07 > 0:20:10into the Energy Secretary Chris Huhne. There have been allegations
0:20:11 > 0:20:16that Mr Huhne asked his wife to take penalty points after he was

0:20:20 > 0:20:23Academy Awards have been announced in Los Angeles. The Martin Scorsese
0:20:23 > 0:20:28children's film, Hugo, is leading the field with 11 Oscar nominations,
0:20:28 > 0:20:38just ahead of the silent offering, The Artist, with ten. Alistair

0:20:40 > 0:20:44Leithead joins us live from Los Yes, those other two films that
0:20:44 > 0:20:49stand out from the crowd. The French silent-movie The Artist and
0:20:49 > 0:20:53Hugo. Brad Pitt and George Clooney go head to head in Best actor,
0:20:53 > 0:20:57along with British hopeful Gary Goldman, who has also been
0:20:57 > 0:21:04nominated for the first time. As you would expect, it was a very
0:21:05 > 0:21:09This morning, we will share the news we have all been waiting for.
0:21:09 > 0:21:14It seems nothing matters more in Hollywood than this. The Oscars
0:21:14 > 0:21:20have always been the most formal award ceremony, as well as the most
0:21:20 > 0:21:26prestigious. And in the melee of names, if you stood out. Hugo.
0:21:26 > 0:21:30Their descendants. The Artist. all, The Artist picked up 10
0:21:30 > 0:21:36nominations, including best film, director and actor. The Descendants
0:21:36 > 0:21:41took five, it is also a favourite for best picture, as is Hugo,
0:21:41 > 0:21:44nominated in 11 categories, most of them technical. For best actor,
0:21:44 > 0:21:48George Clooney in The Descendants goes up against Brad Pitt for
0:21:48 > 0:21:53Moneyball. And the best British hope lies with Gary Oldman and and
0:21:53 > 0:21:57his role in tinker tailor soldier Spy. His first Oscar nomination.
0:21:57 > 0:22:01Meryl Streep's portrayal of Margaret Thatcher in the Iron Lady
0:22:01 > 0:22:08is a favourite for Best actress category, up against Michelle
0:22:08 > 0:22:11Williams in My Week With Marilyn and viola Davies in the help. The
0:22:11 > 0:22:15entertainment reporter has managed to rev up their excitement. Right
0:22:15 > 0:22:22now it is all about Hugo and The Artist. Despite the announcement
0:22:22 > 0:22:27being made before dawn in LA. It hit the American breakfast shows.
0:22:27 > 0:22:33If The Artist wins Best Film, it will be only the second time a
0:22:33 > 0:22:38silent movie has won the top prize since Wings won at the first ever
0:22:38 > 0:22:42Academy Awards in 1929. The Artist is the No. 1 contender right now
0:22:42 > 0:22:46because everybody has a crush on it. They are delighted with it. But
0:22:46 > 0:22:51there are big reservations about whether it is really an Oscar
0:22:51 > 0:22:55winner for best picture. George Clooney has never won an Oscar for
0:22:55 > 0:23:00best leading actor. His Golden Globe has tipped the odds in his
0:23:00 > 0:23:04favour for The Descendants. And it would be Brad Pitt's first gong for
0:23:05 > 0:23:11best actor if he won. Tinker tailor soldier Spy was ignored by the
0:23:11 > 0:23:15Golden Globes. If you're caught... The film gives Gary Oldman his
0:23:15 > 0:23:19first ticket to the awards, which will be held on the last Sunday in
0:23:19 > 0:23:27February. Everybody seems to be talking about The Artist. Do you
0:23:27 > 0:23:31think it will do it? Oh dear. I'm sorry. We seem to have lost
0:23:31 > 0:23:33Alastair. Now, �41 million - how would you
0:23:33 > 0:23:36spend it? Well, for one Nottinghamshire couple, that's
0:23:36 > 0:23:38reality not fantasy tonight. Gareth and Catherine Bull hit the
0:23:38 > 0:23:48EuroMillions jackpot and they've been speaking about their new life
0:23:48 > 0:23:50
0:23:50 > 0:23:53as the Mansfield millionaires, as This contains flash photography.
0:23:53 > 0:23:57This is Mansfield, home to Britain's newest multi-millionaires,
0:23:57 > 0:24:02the whole town has been guessing who they might be until this
0:24:02 > 0:24:06afternoon. Gareth and Catherine Ball collected their lottery
0:24:06 > 0:24:10winnings and a much bigger cheque than they were expecting. You're
0:24:10 > 0:24:18looking at the numbers and trying to comprehend things. It must be �4
0:24:18 > 0:24:26million, maybe. So how do you tell the family? I said I need to tell
0:24:26 > 0:24:32you we have won a raffle. Then your mum said, do you mean the lottery?
0:24:32 > 0:24:36It all clicked. The big one on Friday? Yes. She just cried and
0:24:36 > 0:24:40screamed. We are all encouraged to save for a rainy day, but it was
0:24:40 > 0:24:45the wet weather that stopped Gareth ball from working so he popped in
0:24:45 > 0:24:50here and bought a ticket worth a fortune. There were no set numbers
0:24:50 > 0:24:58or superstitions behind the jackpot. Gareth, a self-employed builder,
0:24:58 > 0:25:04took the lucky dip option. First thing, I will check my ticket! If I
0:25:04 > 0:25:10am not the winner, my brother called me, he's the boss. So happy.
0:25:10 > 0:25:15Good luck to them. Whoever it is. All week I come in here so
0:25:15 > 0:25:21hopefully it is my lucky week! Fingers crossed! When you think
0:25:21 > 0:25:25about the champagne lifestyle they can now accelerate into, they are
0:25:25 > 0:25:30now appearing to have modest plans. Get a box at Old Trafford, football
0:25:30 > 0:25:35ground and cricket. You're a big fan? A big man United fan. I could
0:25:35 > 0:25:39not afford a season-ticket any more. I said a carpet for my landing!
0:25:39 > 0:25:43news is still sinking in for Britain's 7th biggest EuroMillions
0:25:43 > 0:25:52winners. They left here to tell their children, who may have a few
0:25:52 > 0:25:55ideas of their own about what to do with �40 million. Great stuff. We
0:25:55 > 0:26:01with �40 million. Great stuff. We might have lost the line to LA, but
0:26:01 > 0:26:05Alex has showed up. Thank you! �40 million could not buy you any

0:26:09 > 0:26:13Tomorrow should be brighter and it will be a bit warmer because
0:26:13 > 0:26:17tonight, at milder air is spreading across the country. One of foes
0:26:17 > 0:26:22nights where temperatures will rise, particularly in the east. It will
0:26:22 > 0:26:25be a cloudy night, further rain for many in Scotland and parts of
0:26:25 > 0:26:29eastern England. Damp and drizzly almost anywhere. Look at these
0:26:29 > 0:26:34temperatures. This time yesterday they were dropping to freezing.
0:26:34 > 0:26:38Tonight, no hint of a frost. It will be a milder day tomorrow, but
0:26:38 > 0:26:43in the West there will be a brisk wind blowing, particularly across
0:26:43 > 0:26:46western Scotland. Wet and windy here and rain moving across
0:26:46 > 0:26:49Northern Ireland. Slowly approaching Western parts of
0:26:49 > 0:26:55England and Wales, arriving in the afternoon. Look at these

0:26:59 > 0:27:04generally be dry, but it will be cloudy. Today across parts of
0:27:04 > 0:27:09Yorkshire, just one or two Celsius. Tomorrow, nine of ten Celsius. A
0:27:09 > 0:27:13windy day for Northern Ireland and western Scotland. That rain in the

0:27:18 > 0:27:21tomorrow night, bringing all of us a spell of rain and also it
0:27:21 > 0:27:26reintroduces the cold air. Tomorrow night, the frost returns and it
0:27:26 > 0:27:29could turn icy across the North. The rain across the south-east is
0:27:29 > 0:27:33there early on Thursday but it soon moved away and we should see
0:27:34 > 0:27:37brighter skies. But there will be showers developing. By Friday, not
0:27:38 > 0:27:41so many showers and a better chance of sunshine. Further north, a
0:27:41 > 0:27:46mixture of sunshine and showers on Thursday, but those showers will
0:27:46 > 0:27:50turn wintry with the cold air. By Friday, the weather looks like
0:27:50 > 0:27:52coming down, which may continue into the weekend. It turns milder
0:27:52 > 0:27:56tonight and milder tomorrow, but tonight and milder tomorrow, but
