This is East Midlands Today with Dominic Heale and me, Kylie | :00:02. | :00:07. | |
Pentelow. Our top story tonight: the cities | :00:07. | :00:13. | |
scrambling for Government cash. Nottingham, Derby and Leicester all | :00:13. | :00:19. | |
want money to promote growth but how big is the pot? �1.3 billion | :00:19. | :00:23. | |
for the whole of the country which has one third of what used to be | :00:23. | :00:27. | |
given. Also: other parents pleading for | :00:27. | :00:31. | |
help to solve the mystery of their son's death. It absolute nightmare. | :00:31. | :00:35. | |
I never thought I would lose my baby boy. He should not die before | :00:35. | :00:39. | |
your kids. Six months after the tsunami, how | :00:39. | :00:44. | |
students are helping to rebuild Japan. | :00:44. | :00:50. | |
And a man down and a goal behind. Derby celebrate a remarkable big | :00:50. | :01:00. | |

Good evening and welcome to Monday's programme. First tonight, | :01:04. | :01:07. | |
the race to bring in the investment millions that'll create thousands | :01:07. | :01:11. | |
of jobs in our region. Nottingham, Derby and Leicester are | :01:11. | :01:13. | |
all chasing private and public sector cash to kick-start the | :01:13. | :01:22. | |
economy. All three are putting in bids for help, to the Government's | :01:22. | :01:26. | |
regional growth fund. Today though there was a warning | :01:26. | :01:29. | |
that the fund isn't big enough and more taxpayers' cash is needed. | :01:29. | :01:33. | |
Mike O'Sullivan's in Nottingham to tell us more. | :01:33. | :01:40. | |
Good evening. This is what's called the island site in Nottingham. | :01:40. | :01:43. | |
Parts of it derelict for years. Supposed to be used for homes and | :01:43. | :01:48. | |
commercial use. And this site was one of around a dozen or so | :01:48. | :01:51. | |
showcased to potential investors in Nottingham today. Nottingham trying | :01:51. | :01:54. | |
to convince them they should come here instead of elsewhere in our | :01:54. | :01:56. | |
region. It is not every day you meet a | :01:56. | :01:59. | |
passenger on a bus tour of Nottingham with �25 million to | :01:59. | :02:04. | |
spend. But this tour is taking potential investors around key | :02:04. | :02:11. | |
sites like the Broad Marsh Centre which could create 6000 jobs. And | :02:11. | :02:15. | |
the birds Enterprise Zone, creating �10,000. More investors are still | :02:15. | :02:23. | |
needed. We are looking to provide about 250 homes, associated shops | :02:23. | :02:28. | |
and restaurants. You are probably looking at a build cost of �25 | :02:28. | :02:32. | |
million, which we would have to raise in that the City and possibly | :02:32. | :02:38. | |
as many as 200 jobs. They even named a train. All three of our big | :02:38. | :02:42. | |
cities are trying to win backing from the public and private sectors. | :02:42. | :02:48. | |
Government cash is on offer from the regional growth fund. Not him | :02:48. | :02:58. | |
:02:58. | :02:59. | ||
once �200 million for the Brits enterprise zone. -- Boots. Derby | :02:59. | :03:04. | |
once around �50 million for things like a hi-tech business park near | :03:04. | :03:08. | |
Rolls-Royce and and Innovation Centre. There is a lot of | :03:08. | :03:12. | |
investment... Even as the Tour showed off Nottingham's highlights, | :03:12. | :03:15. | |
there was a warning that there is not enough government cash for | :03:15. | :03:20. | |
everybody. We will get something out of it but it is not to kick -- | :03:20. | :03:24. | |
not enough to kick-start the economy. The other towns named miss | :03:24. | :03:29. | |
out, we will not all be winners of stop Leicester's high cross centre | :03:29. | :03:37. | |
is part of investment in the City over the last 10 years. In at the | :03:37. | :03:43. | |
fight for investments in jobs, you can never stand still. | :03:43. | :03:46. | |
Well, the government has defended the �1.4 billion in its regional | :03:46. | :03:49. | |
growth fund, due to last until 2014/15, saying it ensures that | :03:49. | :03:51. | |
some private sector cash comes in as well. Economic development and | :03:51. | :03:54. | |
jobs have been the key themes of the Liberal Democrats' annual | :03:54. | :03:56. | |
conference. Over to the International Convention Centre in | :03:56. | :04:02. | |
Birmingham and our Political Editor John Hess. | :04:02. | :04:05. | |
The conference today heard the Business Secretary Vince Cable talk | :04:05. | :04:08. | |
of the need for investment to boost exports, green technology and | :04:08. | :04:12. | |
manufacturing. Then this afternoon, the reality for one of our | :04:12. | :04:18. | |
struggling manufacturers, train makers Bombardier of Derby. In a | :04:18. | :04:21. | |
question and answer session with delegates, the Lib Dems' leader | :04:21. | :04:27. | |
Nick Clegg was put on the spot. am very annoyed that we were | :04:27. | :04:32. | |
totally tied up, tied in knots by the legal requirements of the | :04:32. | :04:34. | |
tendering process drafted by the previous government. We could not | :04:34. | :04:39. | |
get out of it. Philip Hammond and Vince Cable are working to make | :04:39. | :04:43. | |
sure that doesn't happen again, that British companies had given a | :04:43. | :04:51. | |
fair crack of the whip. But it was a Nottingham delegate who earlier | :04:51. | :04:54. | |
told the conference the quickest way to boost the economy and the | :04:54. | :04:56. | |
infrastructure was to build new homes. I cannot stress enough how | :04:56. | :05:00. | |
many people in this city of Nottingham and elsewhere in the | :05:00. | :05:03. | |
country find themselves trapped in sub-standard housing that they | :05:03. | :05:13. | |
:05:13. | :05:16. | ||
cannot afford to get themselves out of. But new housing, roads, | :05:16. | :05:18. | |
industrial estates, key ingredients of local infrastructure projects | :05:18. | :05:21. | |
are not cheap. I asked the leader of the Liberal Democrats on | :05:21. | :05:23. | |
Leicestershire county council Simon Galton, how much money we're | :05:23. | :05:28. | |
talking about. Leicester identified a shortfall of �2 billion. If there | :05:28. | :05:35. | |
is a huge gap to fill. Can it be filled? That depends upon whether | :05:35. | :05:38. | |
the government is going to make some more money available to kick- | :05:38. | :05:46. | |
start those sorts of projects. Clegg said today, the Department | :05:46. | :05:49. | |
for Transport alone has �8 billion to spend on infrastructure projects | :05:49. | :05:52. | |
and he's determined, in his words, to get the money out of doors of | :05:52. | :06:02. | |
Whitehall and spent. Well, the East Midlands Development | :06:02. | :06:08. | |
Agency is on the island site. The organisation that used to hand out | :06:08. | :06:11. | |
lots of development cash being wound up by the Government and | :06:11. | :06:21. | |
:06:21. | :06:26. | ||
replaced by the regional growth fund. And to discuss the chances | :06:26. | :06:29. | |
for investment in the region, I'm joined by Professor Baback Yazdani, | :06:29. | :06:31. | |
from Nottingham Trent University and regional chairman of the CBI. | :06:31. | :06:36. | |
It doesn't sound like a lot for the entire country but it is unlikely | :06:36. | :06:41. | |
to change. Perhaps we need to concentrate our efforts to give the | :06:41. | :06:45. | |
project that are going to have the biggest impact. How difficult is it | :06:45. | :06:49. | |
to get the private sector to invest in places like the East Midlands? | :06:49. | :06:55. | |
The private sector requires a good planning and tax environment to | :06:55. | :06:59. | |
want to invest. In that regard, the little things to matter. The | :06:59. | :07:03. | |
Investment announced today in Wolverhampton and the �10 million | :07:03. | :07:10. | |
investment in the regional growth fund has brought in �350 million | :07:10. | :07:14. | |
from Jaguar Land-Rover into that region. This is the second round of | :07:14. | :07:18. | |
birds in the regional growth fund and the results will be announced | :07:18. | :07:28. | |
:07:28. | :07:30. | ||
later in the autumn. -- bids. Still to come on the programme: the big | :07:30. | :07:33. | |
clean up in Japan. Six months after the Tsunami a student from | :07:33. | :07:35. | |
Derbyshire returns from a country that's slowly re-building its | :07:36. | :07:43. | |
The parents of a Leicester man who died after collapsing with serious | :07:43. | :07:46. | |
head injuries say they're living an absolute nightmare as they try to | :07:46. | :07:50. | |
find out how he died. Jason Jelley was married with five | :07:50. | :07:56. | |
children. How he got his injuries is a mystery. His family are | :07:56. | :08:04. | |
appealing for anyone with information to help them. In | :08:04. | :08:09. | |
morning and struggling to accept the death of their son. The parents | :08:09. | :08:13. | |
of the father of five say they are utterly devastated. Absolute | :08:13. | :08:21. | |
nightmare. Never thought I would be losing My baby boy. Here he was, | :08:21. | :08:26. | |
captured on CCTV on Wednesday morning in Leicester. Just an hour | :08:26. | :08:30. | |
later, he arrived home with terrible head injuries. Police say | :08:30. | :08:36. | |
they do not know whether he felt or if he was assaulted. His family | :08:36. | :08:42. | |
there are certain he was attacked. He told his wife when he got him | :08:42. | :08:46. | |
that he had been attacked from behind. Somebody saw him holding | :08:46. | :08:51. | |
his face with blood coming out of his face. Officers have been | :08:51. | :08:54. | |
carrying out house-to-house inquiries in the area to try to | :08:54. | :08:58. | |
find anyone who might have seen something. Police particularly want | :08:58. | :09:04. | |
to trace a man who may have helped him across Strasbourg drive, a | :09:04. | :09:09. | |
round the corner from his home. Based say he is described as black, | :09:09. | :09:14. | |
between 5 ft 6 and 6 ft 4 -- Paul. Meanwhile, Jason's family say they | :09:14. | :09:19. | |
are desperately waiting for someone to come forward with information | :09:19. | :09:26. | |
which might help them solve the mystery of their son's death. | :09:26. | :09:32. | |
appeal to people who are parents themselves, how would you feel if | :09:32. | :09:42. | |
:09:42. | :09:43. | ||
you had lost your son? The pain we feel is unbearable. | :09:43. | :09:46. | |
Firefighters have been dealing with a large blaze at a Transport Yard | :09:46. | :09:55. | |
in Sutton in Ashfield. Officers have set up a 200-metre exclusion | :09:55. | :09:58. | |
zone around the site on Prospect Close. Local businesses have been | :09:58. | :10:01. | |
affected. The Fire Service says it's expected to be on site for 24 | :10:01. | :10:04. | |
hours. Officers are concerned about the danger from gas cylinders on | :10:04. | :10:09. | |
the site. Network Rail is to monitor the | :10:09. | :10:11. | |
timing of barriers at a level crossing in Nottinghamshire after | :10:11. | :10:14. | |
two people were trapped on the tracks. The incidents happened at | :10:14. | :10:17. | |
the crossing on Carey Road in Bulwell. On two occasions people | :10:17. | :10:20. | |
with mobility problems were trapped between the barriers because they | :10:20. | :10:25. | |
closed too quickly. Network Rail is also upgrading the monitors used by | :10:25. | :10:32. | |
signallers to observe the crossing. This is East Midlands Today. Coming | :10:32. | :10:39. | |
up in sport: a tale of two cities. At one end of the A52, jubilation. | :10:39. | :10:43. | |
At the other, disbelief. All the highlights of an epic local derby | :10:43. | :10:52. | |
The police say they're becoming increasingly concerned for the | :10:52. | :10:55. | |
well-being of a vulnerable woman who's been missing for more than | :10:55. | :11:01. | |
four days. Janet Bacon was last seen when she | :11:01. | :11:04. | |
was dropped off for a bus in Mansfield. But she left home | :11:04. | :11:13. | |
without her bank cards and has switched her mobile off. At her | :11:13. | :11:17. | |
Mansfield bungalow where she lives with one of her sons, a police | :11:17. | :11:20. | |
search team was looking for clues. They were going through her | :11:20. | :11:24. | |
belongings in the hope that a piece of paper, a receipt or note might | :11:24. | :11:29. | |
tell them where she was heading and what he plans were four days ago. | :11:29. | :11:32. | |
74 year-old Janet became a great great grandmother six weeks ago but | :11:32. | :11:35. | |
last weekend was the 9th anniversary of her husband's death. | :11:35. | :11:39. | |
Her sons and daughter described their mother as sociable but are | :11:39. | :11:43. | |
concerned about the pain she is in a former water disability. She has | :11:43. | :11:46. | |
taken a large quantity of painkillers with her and her family | :11:46. | :11:54. | |
is worried about her frame of mind. Very worried. There is only so much | :11:54. | :12:04. | |
:12:04. | :12:04. | ||
pain people can take. We are very concerned as regards the number of | :12:04. | :12:10. | |
tablets she has with her. Passengers at Mansfield bus station | :12:10. | :12:14. | |
are also being asked if they've seen Janet. She enjoys using her | :12:14. | :12:16. | |
bus pass and regularly travels around the East Midlands. She was | :12:16. | :12:22. | |
dropped off by taxi at 1:30pm last Thursday. For Janet to catch a bus | :12:22. | :12:26. | |
was not unusual but for her not to be in contact with her family for | :12:26. | :12:29. | |
so long is out of character. At the time she went missing, she was | :12:29. | :12:34. | |
wearing a blue top and carrying a red metal walking-stick and a black | :12:34. | :12:41. | |
leather handbag. We are not saw -- we are not sure of what is state of | :12:41. | :12:45. | |
minders. We are really concerned. Jags family is pleading with her to | :12:45. | :12:53. | |
get in touch and tell them she is safe. -- Janet says family. | :12:53. | :13:03. | |

If you have any information, call Well, there is only one place to | :13:11. | :13:14. | |
start tonight, the fall out and analysis after the explosive Forest | :13:14. | :13:19. | |
Derby game. Team Rams have had the day off today after victory, | :13:19. | :13:21. | |
meanwhile the Reds have been sweating out defeat on the training | :13:21. | :13:25. | |
field. In a moment we'll be looking at what's going wrong at the City | :13:25. | :13:28. | |
Ground but first Natalie Jackson reports on a Derby day win for | :13:28. | :13:37. | |
Derby. The East Midlands derby is all | :13:37. | :13:47. | |
:13:47. | :13:56. | ||
about the fans, about pride and These players have experienced | :13:56. | :14:01. | |
games like this before. But they will need strong hearts and minds | :14:01. | :14:06. | |
in this game today. The fixture is always dramatic but few expected | :14:06. | :14:16. | |
this! 66 seconds gone, Derby down to 10 men. The goalie sent-off, his | :14:16. | :14:20. | |
stand-in had barely taken his seat. Was it a minute or something like | :14:20. | :14:26. | |
that? I was eating my banana, getting ready for the game. Read | :14:26. | :14:34. | |
funded in the penalty. -- thundered in a. It did not take long before | :14:34. | :14:39. | |
there was more controversy. He has lost his footing and there is the | :14:39. | :14:44. | |
referee, no foul. Off we go, carry on. Nigel Clough is telling derby | :14:44. | :14:54. | |
:14:54. | :14:55. | ||
to carry on. Carry on, he says, it It is a great run and he has | :14:55. | :15:05. | |
:15:05. | :15:11. | ||
Derby showed incredible character and team spirit. Hendrick missed a | :15:11. | :15:21. | |
sitter and then at the 19 year-old turned from a villain to hero. | :15:21. | :15:27. | |
knew it was going in. I didn't know what to do and all the lads came | :15:27. | :15:32. | |
over and jumped on me. It was a great feeling. We have huge belief | :15:32. | :15:37. | |
in their character and spirit. We hope that when we look back in six | :15:37. | :15:41. | |
months, it will BAA season defining moment. He is probably the proudest | :15:41. | :15:51. | |
manager in the season at the moment. -- in the the lead at the moment. | :15:51. | :15:54. | |
So the Forest fans are angry not just because of the defeat, but | :15:54. | :15:58. | |
also because they haven't won at home yet and are now in the | :15:58. | :16:01. | |
relegation zone. It is early days but why were Forest so bad in such | :16:01. | :16:11. | |
:16:11. | :16:11. | ||
a landmark game for the supporters? Last season, Nottingham Forest's | :16:12. | :16:16. | |
defence was one of the best in the championship but Derby's first goal | :16:16. | :16:21. | |
was barely -- with a daily the hint of a challenge finally shattered | :16:21. | :16:24. | |
that repetition. Steve McLaren admitted the defending was | :16:24. | :16:27. | |
unacceptable but he reckons the problems run deeper. There are a | :16:27. | :16:33. | |
lot of changes gone on in this football club with management, with | :16:33. | :16:36. | |
players and to get teething problems. Sometimes, failure to | :16:36. | :16:41. | |
adapt to each other... That is the problem. We've not found the | :16:41. | :16:46. | |
balance. The defence is a puzzle, four of the current back five | :16:46. | :16:53. | |
helped create a record. They have now conceded nine goals in three | :16:53. | :16:57. | |
games. So, could confidence be an issue? I'm not too sure about lack | :16:57. | :17:01. | |
of confidence. I think it is because we made so individual -- so | :17:01. | :17:07. | |
many individual next -- mistakes since the start of the season. Each | :17:07. | :17:11. | |
mistake keeps costing a sand gets highlighted. And the frustrations | :17:11. | :17:16. | |
of the fans are growing. There were chants of sack the board. A banner | :17:16. | :17:20. | |
also directed at the chief executive of stop the board didn't | :17:20. | :17:25. | |
lose the game, we did. Nigel puts a lot of money into this football | :17:25. | :17:29. | |
club and how he wants to run it is how he wants to run it. We have to | :17:29. | :17:35. | |
work within those parameters. We accept that now. We fight it and we | :17:35. | :17:38. | |
try for things and he can see the fans frighted as well. But at the | :17:38. | :17:44. | |
end of the day, he has put his hard-earned money into this | :17:44. | :17:47. | |
football club and it is still going because of him. The season has a | :17:47. | :17:53. | |
long way to run. Forest are notoriously slow starters. Still, | :17:53. | :18:01. | |
there is plenty to chew on. If you want to see it again, it is | :18:01. | :18:07. | |
all on the BBC website. Over at Leicester City the pressure isn't | :18:07. | :18:10. | |
exactly off but a good performance and a victory over league leaders | :18:10. | :18:13. | |
Brighton makes the Foxes start to the season suddenly look a whole | :18:13. | :18:15. | |
lot better. All smiles at the King Power Stadium. | :18:15. | :18:20. | |
It was a victory built on a storming first half. They were | :18:20. | :18:25. | |
having fun with their pace up front. The fox is even had the ball in the | :18:25. | :18:34. | |
back of the net. -- the Foxes. Any frustration was blown away by the | :18:34. | :18:41. | |
goal and if second half. -- in the second half. No one was getting | :18:41. | :18:49. | |
carried away. Least of all the manager. A couple of weeks ago, | :18:49. | :18:56. | |
Southampton... They were the better team. Today, Brighton were top of | :18:56. | :19:01. | |
the league. We must build on this. The game could have ended up as a | :19:01. | :19:09. | |
draw. Smith was a Leicester target in the summer. He did the club he | :19:09. | :19:15. | |
Neelie joined a massive favour by missing. -- Neelie joined. Notts | :19:15. | :19:18. | |
County have gone one better than Leicester. Their recent record in | :19:18. | :19:23. | |
League One is three wins and a draw. A trip to Turin clearly a tonic. | :19:23. | :19:29. | |
They had a few things to survive to win at Stevenage. This penalty, for | :19:29. | :19:36. | |
example. A great save. Then, this challenge by Charlie Allen. Hard to | :19:36. | :19:43. | |
argue that it should have been a red card. But Nottingham County | :19:43. | :19:51. | |
survived and thrived. When Ben Burgess headed in to seal the win, | :19:51. | :19:55. | |
it was a model of simplicity. Good news and bad news for | :19:55. | :19:59. | |
Leicester Tigers. The bad is that number eight Thomas Waldrom has | :19:59. | :20:04. | |
been called up by England as cover for Nick Easter. His flight to New | :20:04. | :20:06. | |
Zealand leaves the Tigers with precisely no players dedicated to | :20:06. | :20:09. | |
that position. The good was a dramatic come from behind win at | :20:09. | :20:15. | |
Newcastle. Tigers first win of the season featured three players | :20:15. | :20:17. | |
scoring their first try in Leicester colours, starting with Ed | :20:17. | :20:21. | |
Slater. Then, 15 minutes into the second half, it was Julian Salvi's | :20:21. | :20:24. | |
turn. All before the Steve Mafi late late show stole a one point | :20:24. | :20:31. | |
victory. Off and running. Two other triumphs to mention: | :20:31. | :20:33. | |
Nottingham Panthers did a Scottish double on the road. Demolishing | :20:33. | :20:37. | |
Fife 6-2 and then Edinburgh 8-0. And golfer Mel Reid warmed up | :20:37. | :20:41. | |
wonderfully for the Solheim Cup by winning the Spanish Open. A full | :20:41. | :20:50. | |
report on Mel's progress later in the week. | :20:50. | :20:56. | |
There is also Carling Cup action this week. It's all very busy! | :20:56. | :21:02. | |
15,000 people were killed, 130,000 are still homeless. The earthquake | :21:02. | :21:05. | |
and tsunami in Japan six months ago had a devastating impact both on | :21:05. | :21:09. | |
Japan, its population and global markets. | :21:09. | :21:13. | |
It even affected car production here in the East Midlands. Well, | :21:13. | :21:16. | |
this week one of our universities has offered a helping hand by | :21:16. | :21:25. | |
inviting over a group of students directly affected by the disaster. | :21:25. | :21:32. | |
Lives lost, homes destroyed, family livelihoods devastated. These | :21:32. | :21:36. | |
smiles high personal tragedy. Each student here was affected by the | :21:36. | :21:43. | |
earthquake and tsunami in Japan six months ago. TRANSLATION: My house | :21:43. | :21:48. | |
was completely washed away by the tsunami. My house is only seven | :21:48. | :21:56. | |
kilometres away from the nuclear site. My family has to live apart | :21:56. | :22:03. | |
and I have to worry about when I can move back. TRANSLATION: There | :22:03. | :22:07. | |
are still many people who live in temporary housing, who do not have | :22:07. | :22:13. | |
normal lives. I really wish that those people who are suffering will | :22:13. | :22:20. | |
be recovering physically and mentally as soon as possible. | :22:20. | :22:24. | |
students go to university in the north-east of Japan. They've come | :22:24. | :22:28. | |
to De Montfort University to share their experiences and learn about | :22:28. | :22:31. | |
quirky English traditions. It has been inspirational to have them | :22:31. | :22:36. | |
here. We took them to Leicester City on Saturday and to our great | :22:36. | :22:40. | |
delight, the Japanese international scored the winning goal. Yesterday, | :22:40. | :22:44. | |
we took them to the whole of our archivist and they took them to an | :22:44. | :22:47. | |
allotment which may not sound impressive until you learn that | :22:47. | :22:57. | |
:22:57. | :22:58. | ||
many of them live near toothy Fukushima nuclear site. There have | :22:58. | :23:01. | |
been telling us that they will not be able to grow food there for | :23:01. | :23:05. | |
another 50 years. They were very touched with how people in England | :23:06. | :23:13. | |
think about them. They realise they are not forgotten for loss of | :23:13. | :23:16. | |
light-hearted fun here, imagers different to the ones we saw six | :23:16. | :23:25. | |
months ago of the ones we saw six months ago. One woman from | :23:25. | :23:29. | |
Derbyshire has been helping out with the clean-up operation. All of | :23:29. | :23:33. | |
this used to be houses and it is now rubble of. At home in | :23:33. | :23:38. | |
Derbyshire, a cat tells her father about her voluntary work in Japan. | :23:38. | :23:48. | |
:23:48. | :23:49. | ||
The 19 year-old is just back from a city 125 miles north of Fukushima, | :23:49. | :23:54. | |
which suffered in the earthquake and tsunami. I was based in a city | :23:54. | :24:01. | |
but we also did satellite projects to other places. I distributed food | :24:01. | :24:05. | |
and temporary homes, dug a lot of pictures, cleared a lot of drains | :24:05. | :24:11. | |
and did some other things. She says a voluntary work has been an | :24:11. | :24:14. | |
unusual but rewarding way to end a gap year. Now she is heading off to | :24:14. | :24:19. | |
Cardiff University to study medicine. The students here are a | :24:19. | :24:23. | |
testimony to how quickly people can recover from such devastating | :24:23. | :24:27. | |
disasters. The effects of the tsunami were far-reaching, even | :24:27. | :24:32. | |
being felt here in Derbyshire. At Toyota's Burnaston plant, staff had | :24:32. | :24:37. | |
to go on reduced hours because of a shortage of car parts but the | :24:37. | :24:40. | |
company is now back on track and they put that down to the | :24:40. | :24:46. | |
extraordinary efforts of their staff. We have returned to normal | :24:46. | :24:51. | |
production, that is since June. We started the recovery of lost | :24:51. | :24:55. | |
production since September. We will have fully recovered all the | :24:55. | :24:59. | |
vehicles which were delayed before the end of the year. In fact, we | :24:59. | :25:03. | |
will finish 2011 with slightly more production than we had originally | :25:03. | :25:07. | |
plan. The production lines are back to normal but for these young | :25:07. | :25:10. | |
people, the past six months have been quite literally a roller- | :25:10. | :25:14. | |
coaster ride. They are certainly optimistic about the future but | :25:14. | :25:17. | |
their messages, they don't want us to forget about the disaster | :25:18. | :25:24. | |
because its effects could be felt for generations to come. | :25:24. | :25:34. | |

Great spirit there, isn't there? I went to Melton Mowbray and a | :25:42. | :25:46. | |
charity car wash, where some firefighters did a good job on my | :25:46. | :25:53. | |
car. Thank you. It was hard work. We have a creative shot tonight of | :25:53. | :25:58. | |
one of the statues we showed on a Friday night at Chatsworth. Thank | :25:58. | :26:04. | |
you to Michael for capturing this. The cloud is starting to increase | :26:04. | :26:08. | |
overnight. We have lost our sunshine this afternoon and that is | :26:08. | :26:11. | |
due to weigh whether fund which is slowly going to be working its way | :26:11. | :26:18. | |
down the country. -- D to a weather front. A small amount of rain is | :26:18. | :26:22. | |
coming across the north-west corner. Quite mild and it has been breezy | :26:22. | :26:26. | |
as well so that temperatures dropping to 13 Celsius. It means | :26:26. | :26:29. | |
that front will be with us first thing tomorrow morning. It depends | :26:29. | :26:35. | |
how much rain is likely to come from it. It will pay a pub during | :26:35. | :26:38. | |
the early part of the morning and again into the afternoon as it | :26:38. | :26:40. | |
works its way southwards. Coming in behind, although still a lot of | :26:40. | :26:44. | |
cloud staying with us, you might as a model -- a bit of pride does | :26:44. | :26:47. | |
coming back to the Peak District. The winds should not be as brisk | :26:47. | :26:51. | |
yesterday. Temperatures not doing too bad either, around what they | :26:51. | :26:56. | |
should be for the time of year at 18 Celsius. That band clears to the | :26:56. | :26:59. | |
site from Wednesday so we've got low-pressure controlling the | :26:59. | :27:02. | |
weather still and the breeze starts to pick up again by the time we get | :27:02. | :27:06. | |
to one said. We are sandwiched between two whether funds. Ones | :27:06. | :27:10. | |
sitting further south and the other coming down from the north. | :27:10. | :27:14. | |
Wednesday should be a day which will remain bright but it will be | :27:14. | :27:17. | |
breezy. Thursday as well, the remnants of a front around on | :27:18. | :27:21. |
