:01:07. > :01:11.First tonight, there has been a dramatic twist in the hunt for
:01:11. > :01:14.Caroline -- the hunt for the killer of Caroline Coyne.
:01:14. > :01:19.Nottinghamshire Police have released CCTV images which appear
:01:19. > :01:22.to show her trying to flag down a bus yards from where her body was
:01:22. > :01:25.found. The question is whether the mother
:01:26. > :01:31.of two was desperately trying to escape her killer.
:01:31. > :01:37.A young woman standing in the road, apparently to call a -- apparently
:01:37. > :01:42.trying to call for hope -- for help. This at the last known sighting of
:01:42. > :01:47.Caroline Coyne alive but what was she trying to do just after 1am on
:01:47. > :01:52.Saturday morning? The 28-year-old had earlier left a family parter in
:01:52. > :01:58.the town centre sometime after midnight. At 12:30PM officers say
:01:58. > :02:05.that she was seen on Brick Hill Road before she was caught half-an-
:02:05. > :02:11.hour later on the bus CCTV. By 8:45am, she was dead, a body
:02:11. > :02:15.discovered on a garden path on four -- Thorneywood Mount. Police say
:02:15. > :02:21.that the siting is significant, so close to Thorneywood Mount. What is
:02:21. > :02:25.not clear is when exactly she died, why was her body left where it was
:02:25. > :02:32.and why was she killed. We know that one of her trainer's
:02:33. > :02:37.was missing, a size 3 whiten paint -- white and pink Nike trainer. If
:02:37. > :02:41.anybody was in the area and they have seen it, picked it up, please
:02:41. > :02:46.let us know. Caroline died from head injuries.
:02:46. > :02:51.She leaves a partner and two young sons as well as a shocked community
:02:51. > :02:55.which could hold some answers. A member of the public has told us
:02:55. > :03:00.better at about 1 o'clock in the morning they heard shouting,
:03:00. > :03:04.perhaps an argument. We want to know if Caroline was involved, was
:03:04. > :03:09.it somebody else in the area at the time he may have seen her or
:03:09. > :03:13.somebody fitting her description. Friends of Caroline and the police
:03:13. > :03:18.say they still don't understand why she was in this area of the city
:03:18. > :03:21.but they say there were plenty of buses, taxis and partygoers on the
:03:21. > :03:28.streets at the time. They hope they can help them piece together the
:03:28. > :03:32.details surrounding this young woman's death.

:04:06. > :04:11.what drives him. Next tonight, the new generation of
:04:11. > :04:15.pensioners going into retirement caring for a loved one. New figures
:04:15. > :04:21.released from the last census shows there has been a dramatic rise in
:04:21. > :04:25.the number of carers aged over 65. It is a growing issue for families,
:04:25. > :04:30.with many elderly people having to look after loved ones well into old
:04:30. > :04:33.age, but with more people needing support there are fears that cuts
:04:33. > :04:38.in social care funding could put more pressure on carers.
:04:38. > :04:43.One of the old as Carys in the country lives in the East Midlands.
:04:43. > :04:47.-- oldest carers. Alf Winter is 90 years old, at a
:04:47. > :04:52.time in his life when you would imagine he needs looking after, but
:04:52. > :04:57.in fact he is the carer for his 55- year-old son Keith, who has
:04:57. > :05:01.cerebral palsy. The pair live together in sheltered housing in
:05:01. > :05:11.Leicestershire. There is nobody else to do it. I
:05:11. > :05:13.
:05:13. > :05:17.have to do it. It is just perseverance. I get on and do it.
:05:17. > :05:22.Alf does the shopping himself, still drives, cleans the house and
:05:22. > :05:26.does the washing, and astonishingly he does not even rely on meals-on-
:05:26. > :05:33.wheels. He manages to cook a full meal every day.
:05:33. > :05:38.I think he is absolutely phenomenal, but he is not aware of it. He is so
:05:38. > :05:46.humble and he just carries on every day, does what he has to do.
:05:46. > :05:53.Normally we have children to do it. Alf has been dedicated to Kiefer 55
:05:53. > :06:03.years. If I did not do it it would put my
:06:03. > :06:09.age on! This keeps you young? The number of carers over fit --
:06:09. > :06:17.over 65 has risen by 15 % over recent years. In the East Midlands
:06:17. > :06:22.there are 430,000 carers and of those 77,000 are raged over 65 and
:06:22. > :06:26.26,000 are raged over 75. With that rise of the age of carers, there
:06:27. > :06:31.comes the pressure up what will happen when the carer needs caring
:06:31. > :06:36.for themselves. Alf says, despite feeling young at heart, he still
:06:36. > :06:44.does worry what will happen to his son when he can't care for him any
:06:44. > :06:49.more. Earlier I spoke to Steve McIntosh
:06:49. > :06:53.from Carers UK. He said Alf is an unusual case but it is a growing
:06:53. > :06:57.issue. We have an ageing population and
:06:57. > :07:02.people are living far longer with serious illness and disability. It
:07:02. > :07:07.is something to celebrate but it means there is increasing pressure
:07:07. > :07:12.on family members to provide care. What kind of problems does that
:07:12. > :07:16.present? We hear from carers to face ill health as a result of
:07:16. > :07:22.caring as well as financial hardship because of the costs of
:07:22. > :07:26.providing support. Also, caring can be extremely isolating when carers
:07:26. > :07:32.are not getting the support they need. There are cuts planned to
:07:32. > :07:35.care services. Are you concerned about that? Very concerned.
:07:35. > :07:40.Directors of social services across England have said that there would
:07:40. > :07:45.be about �1 billion of cuts this year and we are worried this will
:07:45. > :07:49.put additional pressure on all sorts of carers, but we are
:07:49. > :07:54.particularly concerned about carers who may have ill health problems
:07:54. > :08:00.themselves, including older carers. You mentioned earlier that there
:08:00. > :08:05.are people with severe disabilities living longer. That must add
:08:05. > :08:10.pressure. Yes, people with learning difficult -- difficulties or
:08:10. > :08:14.illnesses are living longer. That means that family members are
:08:14. > :08:17.providing care for much longer and many of them are obviously
:08:17. > :08:23.delighted that they have much longer with their loved ones but it
:08:23. > :08:27.does mean that, because social care fund -- services have not been
:08:27. > :08:34.funded to support the increase in the elderly population, the
:08:34. > :08:39.pressure is only growing. Thank you. There is some hope tonight for rail
:08:39. > :08:47.workers in Derby campaigning to sit -- saved Lombardy. The National

:09:04. > :09:08.over a rocky ledge at a Derbyshire country park. It happened yesterday

:09:44. > :09:49.Apparently the royal wedding was a bad thing. Who says? Financial
:09:49. > :09:54.experts, who reckon it hit the country's economic growth.
:09:54. > :09:59.There is a different view in Derby, where one famous company says the
:09:59. > :10:04.big day resulted in a massive increase in sales.
:10:04. > :10:09.The royal wedding, a celebration and an extra bank holiday day off,
:10:09. > :10:13.but was it good or bad for business. The royal wedding has been blamed
:10:13. > :10:18.for slowing down the economy in figures released today, but here at
:10:18. > :10:22.the Royal Crown Derby it has had the opposite effect, generating
:10:22. > :10:28.�400,000 of business at a time when the company really needed it.

:10:47. > :10:52.princes and princesses now. The best seller was this heart

:10:58. > :11:02.came from the UK market. Japan ordered the most of the export
:11:02. > :11:08.orders. On the day of the Wedding there was a massive spike of orders
:11:08. > :11:11.over the internet from America. A film crew came and took a long

:11:16. > :11:20.day they showed it in America in the morning and we had a massive

:12:19. > :12:24.cards, you might think a helicopter is something of a luxury but the
:12:24. > :12:30.police chiefs reckon it saved as many as four -- at least four lives
:12:30. > :12:36.last year. It is good for spotting and chasing and controlling crowds.

:13:18. > :13:23.2500 arrests directly attributed to be helicopter. It has located over
:13:23. > :13:29.1,000 vehicles, without the risks involved in chasing them in police
:13:29. > :13:32.cars. And it has found more than 500 people who have gone missing.
:13:32. > :13:36.Why have these figures come out now?
:13:36. > :13:41.They have been produced because the Nottinghamshire police authority is
:13:41. > :13:45.considering more savings tomorrow. It is expected to confirm the
:13:45. > :13:50.closure of front counters at several Nottinghamshire Police

:14:26. > :14:31.industrial action, the question is can be forced afford to spend

:15:18. > :15:23.When the waiting room is empty, the practice is often at its busiest,
:15:23. > :15:26.because so much work is done on the phone. Everyone talks to the
:15:26. > :15:33.receptionist and then has a telephone consultation when the GP
:15:33. > :15:39.brings them back. The GP reassure us, advisers and diagnoses on the
:15:39. > :15:45.phone. Only one-third of patients comment. On average, a telephone
:15:45. > :15:51.consultation between -- takes between two and three minutes. You
:15:51. > :15:55.can easily help three people in 10 minutes. In person, it takes 10
:15:55. > :16:04.minutes per consultation. So you can obviously help three times as
:16:04. > :16:10.many people. Today, Sarah Jane has a rash. Mum is worried. The GP is
:16:10. > :16:15.able to phone her back straightaway. What does the rash look like?
:16:15. > :16:22.blistery looking and it seems to be getting worse. Sounds like we need
:16:22. > :16:24.to have a look at it. It is very efficient and people as the two are
:16:24. > :16:33.so impressed we can get a doctor's appointment on the same day we

:17:00. > :17:03.better time to reveal the cast of this year's Christmas panto at the
:17:03. > :17:07.Derby Theatre? The show, Dick Whittington And His Cat, stars Paul
:17:07. > :17:11.Nicholas and Linda Robson. But it was Mike McLean, playing Idle Jack,
:17:11. > :17:16.who zipped - somewhat slowly - onto the stage in front of dozens of
:17:16. > :17:26.excited onlookers in the Market Place. The show runs from the
:17:26. > :17:30.seventh of December right through Christmas. I have never played it
:17:30. > :17:36.before. I have actually never worked in Derby before. I love

:18:15. > :18:18.friendly away at Kettering and the club are still looking for more new
:18:18. > :18:21.players, but it is not only on the football side that Leicester are
:18:21. > :18:24.making sweeping changes. The new Thai owners have radically reformed
:18:24. > :18:33.the management structure behind the scenes and in the boardroom, as
:18:33. > :18:37.Natalie Jackson reports. Between 30 and 40 % of football
:18:37. > :18:43.fans and now women, and the popularity of the women's game is
:18:43. > :18:51.on the rise. So, if there are more and more female faces in the crowds,
:18:51. > :18:56.why is there a lack of women here, in the boardroom? Karen great wit -
:18:56. > :19:05.- Karren Brady in Delia Smith are among a handful. But now Leicester
:19:05. > :19:12.City is leading the way. I don't feel like a trail blazer. I do feel
:19:12. > :19:16.very honoured. She has worked for the club's new owners for more than
:19:16. > :19:21.12 years at the heart of a duty free shopping empire. Now, they
:19:21. > :19:26.have entrusted her to prepare the club for the Premier League. It is
:19:26. > :19:32.so exciting, it really is. Our ambitions are to get to the Premier
:19:32. > :19:38.League. We're not here for a couple of years, we're not going to
:19:38. > :19:44.disappear. We are really committed to developing the facilities across
:19:44. > :19:50.every area of the business. So far, she has renovated the stadium,
:19:50. > :19:56.training ground and club shop. And there is more on the way. A museum
:19:56. > :19:59.is absolutely on the cards, maybe not for the early part of this
:19:59. > :20:05.season but we hope that you will get it done at some stage in the
:20:05. > :20:13.season. So, big plans and exciting times ahead. Her first game it is
:20:13. > :20:16.this weekend. They take on the nine time European champions Real Madrid.
:20:16. > :20:18.Other news, starting with cricket, where the wickets have been falling
:20:18. > :20:21.like ninepins in Nottinghamshire's game with Lancashire. Notts were 27

:20:59. > :21:03.good World Championship performance to propel him into the US PGA
:21:03. > :21:08.Championship in two weeks. The PGA will be Westwood's 55th attempt at
:21:08. > :21:17.winning a major. He was speaking on a visit to see the children taking
:21:17. > :21:22.part in Golf Academy sessions that bear his name. Literally, a flying

:21:30. > :21:34.the man himself. The more successful you get, the more
:21:34. > :21:37.demands on your time there are. You have to be good at time-management
:21:38. > :21:42.and you get good are watching clocks and fitting it all into a
:21:42. > :21:46.short space of time. No wonder it is busy. In between treating the
:21:46. > :21:50.kids to the finer points of his swing, he was looking ahead after a
:21:50. > :21:57.year at the Open, these championships are the next on the
:21:57. > :22:03.horizon. The expectation goes up and the spotlight is on you. I
:22:04. > :22:13.would like to play well and going to the PGA in good form. Today, the
:22:13. > :22:22.pressure was off a bit. The questions were frank. Have you ever
:22:22. > :22:27.played with Tiger Woods? Many times. Is he good? He has his moments!
:22:27. > :22:32.They are brutally honest, children. You have to be on your toes.
:22:32. > :22:39.kids loved it and ambitions were duly sparked. I think I could be as
:22:39. > :22:45.good as him, but not as good, because he is really good. A once-
:22:45. > :22:52.in-a-lifetime opportunity. I think I can be as good as him one day.

:23:10. > :23:13.before I go, because tomorrow marks one year to go before the Olympics.
:23:13. > :23:15.And we're enjoying the moment in style with live visits to Derby for

:23:32. > :23:36.buildings at the Crich Tramway Village had been looking its age in
:23:36. > :23:39.recent years. But now �1 million has been spent on turning it into
:23:39. > :23:49.an exhibition centre which tells visitors how a Derbyshire hilltop

:23:50. > :23:57.came to be home to the nation's tramway museum. Simon Hare reports.
:23:57. > :24:02.With a slice from some scissors, it gets its first visitor. The

:24:41. > :24:47.under cover. But also this can be a dry, technical subject for families.
:24:47. > :24:51.So the museum explores the social side of tramways as well. To come
:24:51. > :24:56.and see this in the busy world of today is to step back in time. It
:24:56. > :25:00.makes me feel good. It also charts the history of the site. It was
:25:00. > :25:10.previously owned by George Stephenson. The man who gave the
:25:10. > :25:14.world trains helped to provide a home for trams. It is just such a

:25:18. > :25:23.come experience the atmosphere of the place. It is absolutely
:25:23. > :25:27.electric in all senses. Trams have outlasted the 19th century

:25:42. > :25:52.I love it there. I once had a go driving a triumph.

:26:06. > :26:12.much of this week. Cloudy overnight and rather humid as well. Thank you
