This is East Midlands Today with Dominic Heale and me, Anne Davies. | :00:10. | :00:13. | |
Our top story tonight. Jailed. A 79-year-old paedophile who abused | :00:13. | :00:16. | |
boys over two decades. A cunning predator, Peter Holland | :00:16. | :00:21. | |
used his position at church to groom young boys. When researchers | :00:21. | :00:31. | |
:00:31. | :00:33. | ||
house, we found a suitcase full of photographs. | :00:33. | :00:38. | |
Derby City Council announces �20 million of a savings, 500 jobs are | :00:38. | :00:43. | |
to go. The man at badly injured in a crash | :00:43. | :00:47. | |
who did not want the man responsible to be jailed. I could | :00:47. | :00:56. | |
get pretty miserable, but I do not intend to do that. | :00:56. | :01:01. | |
And on occasion, we get the low- down behind the scenes of the | :01:01. | :01:11. | |

First tonight. A 79-year-old pensioner has been jailed for six | :01:30. | :01:33. | |
years for the sexual abuse of children spanning almost two | :01:33. | :01:35. | |
decades. Peter Holland admitted crimes against 12 schoolboys in | :01:35. | :01:37. | |
Nottingham. But detectives believe there could | :01:37. | :01:43. | |
have been hundreds of victims. And it's emerged that Holland had | :01:43. | :01:46. | |
already been jailed for similar sex offences over 50 years ago. Our | :01:46. | :01:53. | |
Social Affairs Correspondent, Jeremy Ball, reports. Justice | :01:53. | :01:56. | |
finally caught up with Peter Holland today as he was sentenced | :01:56. | :01:59. | |
for crimes going back to 1970s. Crimes that ruined a string of | :01:59. | :02:02. | |
young lives. Let me show you some of the photographs. The police | :02:02. | :02:05. | |
knocked on Holland's doors after a former victim finally came forward | :02:05. | :02:08. | |
last year. They found thousands of catalogued photographs with details | :02:08. | :02:11. | |
that helped them trace several others. Men who are now in their | :02:11. | :02:15. | |
30s and 40s. I was probably the first person they told. There was a | :02:15. | :02:20. | |
lot of silence. I think there was a lot of relief that it had now come | :02:20. | :02:25. | |
out. These people had never disclosed to anybody the extent of | :02:25. | :02:30. | |
the abuse, not even to their wives, to their parents. I think the | :02:31. | :02:37. | |
victims run into hundreds. The photographs speak for themselves. | :02:37. | :02:40. | |
Holland groomed some of his victims by volunteering at church and in | :02:40. | :02:43. | |
Scout groups. Earning their parents' trust and then taking them | :02:43. | :02:48. | |
on trips to the fair and on holidays. That shows him on holiday | :02:48. | :02:53. | |
with one of the victims. This other shot here is taken at Center Parcs | :02:53. | :03:00. | |
and it shows one of the victims swimming in the pool. Holland even | :03:00. | :03:03. | |
used workmates at the Plessey factory to meet some of his victims. | :03:03. | :03:09. | |
But to his neighbours, he presented a very different face. He was very | :03:09. | :03:14. | |
kind. He always comes round if we are not very well or anything and | :03:14. | :03:19. | |
does shopping, or runs people to the doctors, all that sort of thing. | :03:19. | :03:22. | |
Detectives say when they came here to arrest Peter Holland last year, | :03:22. | :03:26. | |
he was not at all surprised. In fact, it was the knock on the door | :03:26. | :03:29. | |
he had been expecting for decades. That is because he had a long track | :03:29. | :03:33. | |
record of sexual abuse. These blurry photographs were taken more | :03:33. | :03:39. | |
than 50 years ago when he was jailed the first time. Church of | :03:39. | :03:41. | |
England authorities say that conviction would have showed up | :03:41. | :03:44. | |
with the safeguards now in place. We are deeply sorry that this has | :03:44. | :03:47. | |
happened in the context of his membership of one of our churches. | :03:47. | :03:50. | |
We apologise unreservedly to the victims who are out there, some we | :03:50. | :03:59. | |
know and some we do not know. We would join the police in urging | :03:59. | :04:05. | |
others to come forward. Detectives say he was a cunning sexual | :04:05. | :04:09. | |
predator and they say it beggars belief that he got away with it for | :04:09. | :04:19. | |
:04:19. | :04:20. | ||
so long. Jeremy Ball's with us in the studio. | :04:20. | :04:23. | |
These crimes happened several years ago. So how did the police find | :04:23. | :04:26. | |
Peter Holland's victims? A lot of them were traced through | :04:26. | :04:29. | |
Facebook. By searching for names that Holland had written on the | :04:29. | :04:33. | |
back of those old photos. He left dates too, so detectives had a good | :04:33. | :04:37. | |
idea of how old those men would have been now. And they simply | :04:37. | :04:39. | |
compared the photos with their profile pictures. And if the two | :04:39. | :04:43. | |
seemed to match, then officers sent them a message, asking them to get | :04:43. | :04:45. | |
in touch. We heard the police there saying | :04:45. | :04:47. | |
Holland's victims had kept this abuse quiet. How were they | :04:47. | :04:49. | |
affected? It's been traumatic for some of | :04:49. | :04:52. | |
them. The youngest victims were only 8 years old. Three of the boys | :04:52. | :04:56. | |
were brothers. And one was abused in chuch. Today the judge told | :04:56. | :05:04. | |
Holland he was a manipulative, predatory paedophile. | :05:04. | :05:14. | |
:05:14. | :05:15. | ||
We heard the police there saying Derby City Council today announced | :05:15. | :05:19. | |
it was to make hundreds more staff redundant. It said it was being | :05:19. | :05:26. | |
forced to make �20 million of savings to balance the budgets. | :05:26. | :05:29. | |
Unions have called the cuts a tragedy for staff, services and the | :05:29. | :05:33. | |
city of Derby, as Sarah Teale reports. | :05:33. | :05:36. | |
These were the scenes earlier this year when Derby City Council | :05:36. | :05:40. | |
announced the largest cuts in its history. There were widespread | :05:40. | :05:49. | |
protests them. 465 staff took voluntary redundancy. Unions warned | :05:49. | :05:56. | |
that more would follow. Today, the council announced it has to make a | :05:56. | :06:00. | |
further �20 million of savings to balance the budget for next year. | :06:00. | :06:08. | |
It said the money would be found by losing 500 full-time posts from its | :06:08. | :06:14. | |
6100 strong workforce. That is a lot of jobs. What the expecting | :06:14. | :06:20. | |
people to do? They should be creating jobs, not cutting them. | :06:20. | :06:25. | |
People try very hard, but the often complain that they are the only one | :06:25. | :06:30. | |
so there. It is the reaction amongst the people of Derby. They | :06:30. | :06:36. | |
should see this as a tragedy for their services. Staff morale is low. | :06:36. | :06:40. | |
You have people trying to provide good quality service on a reduced | :06:40. | :06:46. | |
the workforce and budget. All that creates pressure and unmanageable | :06:46. | :06:52. | |
workloads. In a statement, the council said it was unfortunate | :06:52. | :06:57. | |
there had to be job losses, but there was no alternative. The | :06:57. | :07:01. | |
council said that it was committed to getting as many voluntary | :07:01. | :07:06. | |
redundancies as possible. So they would be offering an enhanced | :07:06. | :07:12. | |
packaged to any staff the volunteered to leave. Staffing | :07:12. | :07:17. | |
costs are only a percentage of the savings which need to be made. More | :07:17. | :07:22. | |
cuts in services are inevitable. The council has not said where they | :07:22. | :07:31. | |
will be yet. Still to come on the programme - | :07:31. | :07:34. | |
going nowhere. Forest boss Steve McClaren tells us frustrations have | :07:34. | :07:39. | |
been vented by both him and the board. But he's not quitting. | :07:39. | :07:43. | |
And we have an ex hurricane on the way as we head towards the weekend. | :07:43. | :07:46. | |
It is skipping the States and crossing the pond and working its | :07:46. | :07:49. | |
way towards us bringing some strong winds and potentially heavy rain. I | :07:49. | :07:59. | |

Next tonight, the many thousands of patients rushed to hospital only to | :08:02. | :08:06. | |
face delays when they get there. East Midlands Today has uncovered | :08:06. | :08:08. | |
more evidence of the strain that our accident and emergency units | :08:08. | :08:13. | |
are under. A freedom of information request by | :08:13. | :08:16. | |
the BBC has revealed huge increases in the number of patients having to | :08:16. | :08:19. | |
wait longer to be handed over by ambulance staff to hospital medical | :08:19. | :08:28. | |
teams. Live now to our Health Correspondent Rob Sissons. | :08:28. | :08:33. | |
Those delays are not just act at the un -- the queue and see, right | :08:33. | :08:42. | |
across the region. -- QM see. The fear is that hold-ups are reducing | :08:42. | :08:52. | |
:08:52. | :08:53. | ||
the fire poor power of ambulance crews our A&E units are under | :08:53. | :08:58. | |
strain. After being stretchered and, the handover to the hospital team | :08:58. | :09:04. | |
typically involves a brief consultation and the transfer of | :09:04. | :09:08. | |
information. The target is to do this within 15 minutes of arrival. | :09:08. | :09:16. | |
Increasingly, it is being missed. We have a spike in demand, activity | :09:16. | :09:20. | |
increases and lots of patience, do the hospital at the same time. | :09:20. | :09:26. | |
we can reveal the extent of the handover hold ups. Last year, | :09:26. | :09:30. | |
across the East Midlands, over 98,000 patients had to wait longer | :09:31. | :09:39. | |
than the target time of 15 minutes. And Nottingham's QMC had the | :09:39. | :09:44. | |
biggest delays. Leicester's handover doubled. The ambulance | :09:44. | :09:50. | |
service say improvements are needed. We are under strain, but for the | :09:50. | :09:54. | |
vast majority of the time, the system works very well. It is when | :09:55. | :10:00. | |
they get peaks in demand, and they are often unpredictable, that we | :10:00. | :10:07. | |
struggle. This patient was taken in with chest pains. His handover was | :10:07. | :10:15. | |
up two minutes. He was impressed, but it was quiet. It is good when | :10:15. | :10:25. | |
:10:25. | :10:27. | ||
it has been like that. They do a lot here. The hospital stresses | :10:27. | :10:32. | |
that that the more seriously ill patients are always prioritise. | :10:32. | :10:34. | |
Hospitals across the East Midlands are putting together action plans | :10:34. | :10:39. | |
to sort this out. The problems, if they carry on, may get worse over | :10:39. | :10:47. | |
the winter. Maybe the fact that this barrier spiralling demand and | :10:47. | :10:57. | |
:10:57. | :11:03. | ||
finite resources, solutions may be more competent | :11:03. | :11:05. | |
British detectives who are reviewing the search for Madeleine | :11:05. | :11:08. | |
McCann have travelled to Portugal for formal meetings with the | :11:08. | :11:10. | |
authorities there. Scotland Yard says its officers have conducted | :11:10. | :11:12. | |
face-to-face discussions with police who led the massive hunt | :11:12. | :11:15. | |
when Madeleine disappeared. She was nearly four when she went missing | :11:15. | :11:18. | |
from Praia da Luz in the Algarve in 2007. The Metropolitan Police has | :11:18. | :11:21. | |
begun to review the original investigation after a request from | :11:21. | :11:23. | |
the Home Secretary. A 45-year-old man who was assaulted | :11:23. | :11:26. | |
in Nottingham just over a week ago has died. Rajkumar Thurairajah was | :11:26. | :11:29. | |
found with serious injuries on Lawson Street in Radford. A man has | :11:29. | :11:32. | |
been charged with causing grievous bodily harm with intent and actual | :11:32. | :11:34. | |
bodily harm. A man seriously injured in a road | :11:34. | :11:38. | |
crash involving a drunk driver says he wishes the motorist had not been | :11:38. | :11:40. | |
sent to prison. 69-year-old Peter Small from Sileby in Leicestershire | :11:40. | :11:43. | |
suffered head injuries and now uses a wheelchair. But he asked the | :11:43. | :11:46. | |
courts to order the driver and passenger to carry out voluntary | :11:46. | :11:52. | |
service instead of going to jail. Helen Astle reports. | :11:52. | :11:55. | |
Peter Small is still recovering from the crash which happened in | :11:56. | :11:59. | |
October last year. He suffered multiple injuries including a | :11:59. | :12:04. | |
smashed leg which may still have to be amputated. He had a fractured | :12:04. | :12:09. | |
pelvis, a broken arm and cracked ribs. It hit a had happened when I | :12:09. | :12:17. | |
was 40, I might have had a different attitude because of my | :12:17. | :12:22. | |
responsibilities. But it did not. Peter was travelling along here | :12:22. | :12:27. | |
when he was involved in a head-on clash. The driver of the other car | :12:27. | :12:32. | |
was drunk, was not insured and did not have a driving licence. After | :12:32. | :12:36. | |
the accident, Peter road to the Crown Prosecution Service asking | :12:36. | :12:42. | |
for the drunk driver and his passenger not to be sent to prison. | :12:42. | :12:46. | |
These two las Arab the beginning of their lives, they are both young. I | :12:46. | :12:56. | |
:12:56. | :12:58. | ||
would hate to think that something, for me which is not as bad as all | :12:58. | :13:03. | |
that would turn into something very unfortunate for them. Despite his | :13:03. | :13:08. | |
pleas, the pair were jailed yesterday. I do not want this to | :13:08. | :13:13. | |
last on my conscience too long. If they wish to see be, I would be | :13:13. | :13:18. | |
very happy to talk to them about it. What do you hope to achieve? | :13:18. | :13:24. | |
would hope that they can continue their lives and rebuild their lives. | :13:24. | :13:32. | |
The sad thing is I think that prison sentences I'll of Richard | :13:32. | :13:38. | |

The mother of a 3-year-old boy has spoken about the support she has | :13:50. | :13:53. | |
received since he was killed just over a week ago. Dylan Crean from | :13:53. | :13:56. | |
Albert Village near Swadlincote was airlifted to hospital but died from | :13:56. | :14:06. | |
:14:06. | :14:06. | ||
his injuries. A 21-year-old man has been charged with his murder. | :14:06. | :14:12. | |
Consultation on a review of school terms in Nottinghamshire has closed. | :14:12. | :14:14. | |
The city council is deciding whether to bring in a five-term | :14:14. | :14:17. | |
school year with four weeks holiday in the summer. The authority | :14:17. | :14:20. | |
believes this would enable pupils to achieve higher standards. Next | :14:20. | :14:22. | |
month the council will start considering the opinions it has | :14:22. | :14:24. | |
gathered. Next tonight, police in parts of | :14:24. | :14:27. | |
Leicester have begun a crackdown on muggers. Operation Harvest has been | :14:27. | :14:30. | |
prompted by a rise in burglaries and street robberies in the east of | :14:30. | :14:33. | |
the city. Paul Bradshaw has been to meet one of the victims who says | :14:33. | :14:40. | |
she will never get over it. Mary Adams was mobbed at a bus-stop | :14:40. | :14:46. | |
earlier this year. Her thieves stole and necklace bought by her | :14:46. | :14:56. | |
:14:56. | :14:59. | ||
has been the day before he died. She says she will never get over it. | :14:59. | :15:05. | |
It was dreadful. Her story is not unique. Police are now taking form | :15:05. | :15:15. | |
:15:15. | :15:17. | ||
were action. There were two a muggings in the area. Two remember | :15:17. | :15:25. | |
were robbed by the same man. Both burglaries and muggings have shot | :15:25. | :15:28. | |
up in the first six months of this year compared with the same period | :15:28. | :15:38. | |
:15:38. | :15:44. | ||
Police and are spending �50,000 to put more officers on the streets to | :15:44. | :15:51. | |
try to make communities feel safer. Every victim of a crime, it causes | :15:51. | :15:55. | |
distress and upset. If we can prevent attacks from taking place, | :15:55. | :16:01. | |
it is better for everybody. We are trying to help people from becoming | :16:01. | :16:08. | |
victims of that type of crime and also to identify offenders. | :16:08. | :16:12. | |

Coming up. Notts County's big night at Juventus, but first Nottingham | :16:36. | :16:38. | |
Forest manager Steve McClaren insists he is bemused about stories | :16:39. | :16:41. | |
he wants to quit. McClaren was speaking publically for the first | :16:41. | :16:44. | |
time today since headlines were plastered all over the tabloids and | :16:44. | :16:48. | |
broadsheets about his desire to leave the the club. | :16:48. | :16:53. | |
Steve McClaren was all smiles here at training today, but it has been | :16:53. | :17:03. | |
:17:03. | :17:05. | ||
a turbulent few weeks at the city Ground. What happened last Friday? | :17:05. | :17:12. | |
That is a good question. I was away went all that was going on back | :17:12. | :17:18. | |
home. Frustrations were vented and points were made. Things have | :17:18. | :17:26. | |
settled down. We know the parameters we are working with them. | :17:26. | :17:29. | |
Did you ever think of quitting? do not know with a story has come | :17:29. | :17:37. | |
from. My commitment is to the players, to the players in that | :17:37. | :17:42. | |
dressing room. But it was not all paper talk. Three months after | :17:42. | :17:52. | |
:17:52. | :17:54. | ||
joining, he the board were at loggerheads. It is frustrating, the | :17:54. | :17:59. | |
players we have not been able to get. It must all seem it so | :17:59. | :18:07. | |
familiar to Forest fans. Another transfer window has come and gone | :18:07. | :18:17. | |
:18:17. | :18:18. | ||
Ambleside names. -- and no signings. Steve McClaren is now building | :18:18. | :18:26. | |
bridges with the board. It is something that does take time. If | :18:26. | :18:29. | |
it had come straight away, everybody would have been delighted, | :18:29. | :18:36. | |
but it has to be expected. It has been put to bed. McLaren is moving | :18:36. | :18:46. | |

What an evening yesterday for Notts County. What an honour. At Italian | :18:50. | :18:53. | |
giants Juventus to help them open their new stadium with the first | :18:53. | :18:57. | |
game ever played there. A massive reward for the decision by one man | :18:57. | :19:02. | |
over 100 ago to send Juve an old Notts kit. | :19:02. | :19:06. | |
The replacement for the old and and loved Stadium of Juventus is | :19:06. | :19:16. | |
magnificent. Any team could have been chosen for the ceremony, but | :19:16. | :19:23. | |
instead Notts County for the cells flying out to them. -- found | :19:23. | :19:28. | |
themselves flying out to Italy. had to pinch myself that we were | :19:28. | :19:33. | |
going there. It feels like Christmas Day. For me to be taking | :19:33. | :19:40. | |
the team to Juventus is surreal. Why the honour? It is black and | :19:40. | :19:49. | |
white stripes. Gifted do Juventus in 19 of three by John Savage. -- | :19:49. | :19:59. | |
:19:59. | :20:12. | ||
Make one Notts County against A penalty in the second half. The | :20:12. | :20:18. | |
Italians played their national stereotype by becoming robust. But | :20:19. | :20:24. | |
as a Notts County substitutes help to balance the sides, the Magpies | :20:24. | :20:34. | |
:20:34. | :20:35. | ||
started to irritate. The first visitor to score a goal at | :20:35. | :20:39. | |
Juventus' new stadium was a Notts County player. It was fantastic, I | :20:39. | :20:49. | |
will enjoy it while it lasts. banter with their will not -- the | :20:49. | :20:57. | |
fans who where there will not forget it. | :20:57. | :21:00. | |

after the international break. The characters that came in during | :21:12. | :21:16. | |
the summer have proved it on and off the pitch. We have a good | :21:16. | :21:23. | |
camaraderie. It is a very important moment now. There are five games | :21:23. | :21:33. | |
:21:33. | :21:33. | ||
before the next international break. I think it is important that those | :21:33. | :21:38. | |
five of one. And, as ever, all four clubs have | :21:38. | :21:40. | |
full live coverage on your BBC local radio stations. Brilliant | :21:40. | :21:43. | |
commentators bringing you the games. What more could you want? | :21:43. | :21:46. | |
Before we leave football, I would like to mention Ilkeston FC. They | :21:46. | :21:49. | |
missed out on non-league day last weekend. So they're offering Derby | :21:49. | :21:51. | |
and Forest season ticket holders half price entry to tomorrow's game | :21:51. | :21:54. | |
with Quorn. Just 3.50. Got to be worth a punt. | :21:54. | :21:57. | |
In rugby, it is away games for Leicester Tigers, off to old | :21:57. | :21:59. | |
sparring partners Wasps, and for Nottingham who go to Moseley. | :21:59. | :22:04. | |
Results and action here on Monday. Meanwhile Martin Johnson's England | :22:04. | :22:07. | |
take on Argentina in the World Cup in New Zealand. Good luck to all | :22:07. | :22:10. | |
the Tigers in the squad against the Pumas tomorrow morning. But there's | :22:10. | :22:13. | |
already been an East Midlands player in action. Nottingham | :22:13. | :22:16. | |
Rugby's Sione Kalamafoni played for Tonga in the opening game of the | :22:16. | :22:20. | |
tournament earlier today. He was on the wrong end of a 41-10 defeat to | :22:20. | :22:24. | |
the All Blacks. Finally cricket, and all three of | :22:24. | :22:27. | |
our counties in action. Notts in all sorts of trouble, following on | :22:27. | :22:31. | |
at Edgbaston. An intriguing last day in prospect in Derby. Kent | :22:31. | :22:34. | |
chasing 198 to win. And Leicestershire's collapsed this | :22:35. | :22:44. | |
:22:45. | :22:47. | ||
morning. They're following on too. Football Focus have a full report | :22:47. | :22:57. | |
from the Juventus game, make sure to watch it. | :22:57. | :22:59. | |
Next, a tale of romance and forbidden passion. No, it's not | :22:59. | :23:02. | |
Celebrity Big Brother. It's a real classic. | :23:02. | :23:05. | |
The latest film version of Charlotte Bronte's Jane Eyre is in | :23:05. | :23:08. | |
