East Midlands Today. First tonight - cyclists beware! | :00:12. | :00:19. | |
Three men say they have been goosed from their bikes by a passing car. | :00:19. | :00:26. | |
-- pushed. They will kill somebody if they don't get caught. | :00:26. | :00:31. | |
Cashing in on the Ashes. 500 million people watched the semi-final in | :00:31. | :00:38. | |
2009. If you can imagine, you cannot buy that sort of coverage. Fantastic | :00:38. | :00:44. | |
for us. Plus, bearing fruit. The new organ donation campaign that | :00:44. | :00:52. | |
is helping people like Jeff. And E heady mix. The brewer who has | :00:52. | :00:57. | |
resurrected a long lost there. a traditional bitter. It is very | :00:57. | :01:07. | |
:01:07. | :01:18. | ||
clean. He has done a brilliant job. That's the warning from three men | :01:18. | :01:20. | |
tonight, who say they've been knocked off their bikes by a | :01:21. | :01:23. | |
passenger in a car. One man was left with a broken | :01:23. | :01:26. | |
collar-bone after he was pushed from his bike, at the weekend. Speaking | :01:26. | :01:30. | |
exclusively to the BBC, the men say they think the car involved was a | :01:30. | :01:40. | |
:01:40. | :01:41. | ||
silver BMW. This man has been cycling since he was living. He lets | :01:41. | :01:44. | |
and breeze the sport he wrecked his shop. Last week, whilst out | :01:44. | :01:48. | |
training, a car pulled up beside him. Someone pushed me from the car. | :01:48. | :01:57. | |
He pushed me onto grass. I was going at quite some speed, 30 mph. I don't | :01:57. | :02:00. | |
think they realised how serious what it is, what could happen. I could | :02:00. | :02:06. | |
have had a broken neck. My good script -- my kids could have awaken | :02:06. | :02:10. | |
up with no dad. They need to be found and stopped. The wheels go | :02:10. | :02:15. | |
over the handlebars. Martin was left with bad bruises and graces. It | :02:15. | :02:21. | |
seems he is not the only one. One week ago, Colin was cycling. He was | :02:21. | :02:25. | |
also approached by a car and pushed from his bike. On Thursday, the | :02:25. | :02:30. | |
incident with Martin happened and on Saturday, and the, about to cycle to | :02:30. | :02:36. | |
the Tour de France, was forced on his bike -- of his bike. He was left | :02:36. | :02:40. | |
with a broken collarbone. Shocked that somebody could maliciously run | :02:40. | :02:45. | |
me off the road. Why? If I hadn't been wearing the helmet, I would | :02:46. | :02:54. | |
have hit the road headfirst. Dead. A broken leg, broken back. I have | :02:54. | :03:01. | |
severe bruising on my ribs. I have quite a nastily scratch down my arm | :03:01. | :03:05. | |
and left side. I can't believe somebody would do that. You know? | :03:05. | :03:13. | |
They could have killed somebody. three men say the car was an old | :03:13. | :03:19. | |
silver BMW. They will kill somebody very soon. They need to get caught. | :03:19. | :03:24. | |
It is going to happen. Well, it's been a fantastic weekend | :03:24. | :03:27. | |
for sport with Andy Murray's amazing win at Wimbledon and the Lions Test | :03:27. | :03:31. | |
Victory. The question is, will it continue? | :03:31. | :03:34. | |
Well, tens of thousands of cricket fans from all over the world will | :03:34. | :03:37. | |
descend on Nottingham, from this week, to watch the opening Ashes | :03:37. | :03:42. | |
test match at Trent Bridge. It's a multi-million pound boost for | :03:43. | :03:47. | |
tourism. And thanks to a global TV audience | :03:47. | :03:50. | |
of hundreds of millions, the city will enjoy a priceless marketing | :03:50. | :03:56. | |
campaign. This from Sarah Teale - the first of a series of special | :03:56. | :04:06. | |
:04:06. | :04:11. | ||
reports on the Ashes 2013. The Ashes has always attracted a | :04:11. | :04:17. | |
mass audience. Back in 1926, even torrential rain did not put off | :04:17. | :04:22. | |
these 20,000 fans from packing into Trent Bridge. Almost 90 years later, | :04:22. | :04:25. | |
the appetite for the most tantalising of test matches remains | :04:25. | :04:30. | |
a huge. Such is the excitement for the Ashes, this Test match sold out | :04:30. | :04:36. | |
in just a matter of hours. Trent Bridge holds some 17,000 people. The | :04:36. | :04:41. | |
fans will be coming from far and wide. In fact, over half of them | :04:41. | :04:45. | |
will come from outside of the region. The Australian is, they will | :04:45. | :04:52. | |
be here in full force also. They have bagged over 7000 tickets. Like | :04:52. | :04:57. | |
the Grant family from Melbourne. They are getting a cracking views | :04:58. | :05:03. | |
from the dressing room! The streams will come up here and come down | :05:03. | :05:11. | |
here. The family or enjoying a tour of the ground. They planned their | :05:11. | :05:14. | |
trip around this Test match. talked about coming this time, last | :05:14. | :05:22. | |
year, but thought we might as well come for the Ashes. Absolutely! | :05:22. | :05:26. | |
excited are Australians for the Ashes? It is huge. It is all | :05:26. | :05:33. | |
everybody is talking about. grants will be talking about -- | :05:33. | :05:39. | |
making up the huge contingent of Australians coming here. This man's | :05:39. | :05:44. | |
business is booming because of the Ashes. Everybody tunes in to watch | :05:44. | :05:48. | |
the Ashes series. To have it in Nottingham, and Trent Bridge on the | :05:48. | :05:52. | |
map, the local hotels will be full and the bars and restaurants. | :05:52. | :05:57. | |
Everyone is going to benefit from that, locally, which is great news. | :05:57. | :06:02. | |
It is not just about the number of tourists. It is about the priceless | :06:02. | :06:06. | |
TV marketing also. We have visitors from all over the world. When you | :06:06. | :06:13. | |
put that with the global TV coverage, it is a fantastic chance | :06:13. | :06:17. | |
to showcase our county. It will be shown all over the world. In terms | :06:17. | :06:21. | |
of global audience, how valuable is that? You could not buy it. We had | :06:21. | :06:27. | |
500 million people watch the semi-final here in 2009. If you can | :06:27. | :06:31. | |
imagine, you could not buy that sort of coverage, if you were trying to! | :06:31. | :06:36. | |
Fantastic. For the whole five days of test, Nottingham is going to be | :06:36. | :06:40. | |
on show to the outside world. To the best of my knowledge, every hotel in | :06:40. | :06:45. | |
the city is full for each day of the Ashes. How important is that? | :06:45. | :06:50. | |
Hugely. We know that people are staying here in the area and will | :06:50. | :06:55. | |
spend over �200. That compares with ED visitor who will spend around | :06:55. | :07:04. | |
�30. The impact and economic benefit of people staying over is amazing. | :07:04. | :07:08. | |
The Ashes delivers a winning formula for tourism. Now, we just need to | :07:08. | :07:13. | |
hope for a similar result on the pitch. | :07:13. | :07:16. | |
Later in the programme, we'll be meeting some of the volunteers who | :07:16. | :07:19. | |
will help direct the thousands of cricket fans expected in Nottingham | :07:19. | :07:22. | |
this week. And we'll find out what the weather has in store for them | :07:22. | :07:30. | |
and us. It's the start of the Ashes this | :07:30. | :07:34. | |
week and that is normally be key for the rain but I think that is the | :07:34. | :07:40. | |
only water we will see this week! Another week of drive weather. -- | :07:40. | :07:45. | |
dry weather. The Leicester City captain, Wes | :07:45. | :07:48. | |
Morgan, has been found guilty of careless driving. He was fined | :07:48. | :07:52. | |
�2,000 and narrowly missed an automatic driving ban. | :07:52. | :07:55. | |
A trial heard the former Nottingham Forest player had dozed off at the | :07:55. | :07:59. | |
wheel after not sleeping for almost 24 hours. Our chief news reporter, | :07:59. | :08:09. | |
:08:09. | :08:11. | ||
Quentin Rayner, was in court. He arrived an hour late for his trial, | :08:11. | :08:15. | |
having got the date mixed up. His barrister told the district judge | :08:15. | :08:19. | |
that his client made an apology to the court. In May last year, the | :08:19. | :08:25. | |
player was driving back from an awards function in Leicester. At | :08:25. | :08:30. | |
around 5am, he dozed off while driving on a flyover. He crashed his | :08:30. | :08:35. | |
BMW into a roadside barrier on the bridge over the A52. He had not | :08:36. | :08:39. | |
slept for more than 24-hour 's. The footballer said he briefly nodded | :08:39. | :08:45. | |
off and swerved. No other vehicles were involved. Despite admitting | :08:45. | :08:51. | |
that he had drunk throughout the evening, and officer reporting -- | :08:51. | :08:54. | |
and officers reporting a slight smell of alcohol on his breath, the | :08:54. | :09:01. | |
court ruled that he had no reason to answer another charge. He was fined | :09:01. | :09:06. | |
and given five penalty points. He already has six points. | :09:06. | :09:09. | |
An extra 10,000 people have joined the NHS organ Donor Register since | :09:09. | :09:16. | |
Nottingham's hospitals started a campaign, six months ago. And at the | :09:16. | :09:18. | |
start of National Transport Week, they're urging even more people to | :09:18. | :09:23. | |
talk about signing up. The Be a Hero campaign has been | :09:23. | :09:26. | |
particularly supported by people whose lives have been saved by | :09:26. | :09:31. | |
transplants, both young and old. With more details, here's our health | :09:31. | :09:36. | |
correspondent, Rob Sissons. In the East Midlands, many people | :09:36. | :09:40. | |
carry one of these, a donor card, or have signed up online - expressing | :09:40. | :09:44. | |
their wish to give someone a new lease of life, in the event of their | :09:44. | :09:47. | |
death. 1.3 million people are now on the Donor Register from our part of | :09:47. | :09:50. | |
the Donor Register from our part of the world. That number isn't enough. | :09:50. | :09:54. | |
Why? Well, only a very small number of people die in circumstances where | :09:54. | :09:56. | |
they are able to donate their organs. | :09:56. | :09:59. | |
It means 850 people in the east midlands are waiting for a | :09:59. | :10:05. | |
transplant - be it kidney, lung or liver. And the number of people who | :10:06. | :10:09. | |
die while waiting has reached six, so far this year. The Be a Hero | :10:09. | :10:13. | |
so far this year. The Be a Hero campaign is all about changing that. | :10:13. | :10:23. | |
:10:23. | :10:26. | ||
An independent review is to be On dialysis for years, he never | :10:26. | :10:31. | |
thought he would get one. Three years ago, when the call came, he | :10:31. | :10:36. | |
was the oldest recipient in Nottingham, at 75. It was a dead | :10:36. | :10:40. | |
donor and he gave two. There was a young man in the morning and I was | :10:40. | :10:46. | |
done and afternoon. Inspiring stories like Jeff's have helped the | :10:46. | :10:50. | |
campaign. They began spreading the message in January, getting more | :10:50. | :10:56. | |
people to sign the online register or carry a donor card -- donor card. | :10:56. | :11:00. | |
They are hoping more people will still join full stop it is something | :11:00. | :11:03. | |
that people support. They know that they believe in organ donation but | :11:03. | :11:07. | |
haven't got round to joining the register. We do ask people to join | :11:07. | :11:10. | |
the register if that is their wish and talk to their families. Young | :11:10. | :11:16. | |
and old back the campaign. Nicole, 15, was one of the youngest people | :11:16. | :11:22. | |
to have received in organ, back in 2001. When I was three, I had a | :11:22. | :11:29. | |
transplant. Someone donated their kidney to me. I think it has really | :11:29. | :11:33. | |
changed my life for the better. More people should be in courage to do it | :11:33. | :11:39. | |
because it does change people 's' lives. I think it is vital. As | :11:39. | :11:42. | |
families, you need to get together and talk about these things. Get it | :11:42. | :11:48. | |
out in the open. Might think it, but if you have not make wishes known, | :11:48. | :11:52. | |
and we know first hand what a difference this has made. The family | :11:53. | :12:02. | |
is helping spread the word in this National Transport Week. | :12:02. | :12:05. | |
An independent review is to be carried out into death rates among | :12:05. | :12:08. | |
patients in a large part of Nottinghamshire. The clinical | :12:08. | :12:10. | |
commissioning groups which organise services in Newark and Sherwood, and | :12:10. | :12:13. | |
Mansfield and Ashfield have ordered the inquiry. There's been public | :12:13. | :12:15. | |
concern about death rates following the downgrading of Newark's Accident | :12:15. | :12:22. | |
and Emergency unit. NHS managers say they want to sort out confusion. A | :12:22. | :12:24. | |
separate inquiry is ongoing into death rates at Sherwood Forest | :12:24. | :12:28. | |
Hospitals. Police in Nottinghamshire are still | :12:28. | :12:32. | |
questioning a man on suspicion of murder. It follows the death of | :12:32. | :12:35. | |
Denise Williamson, who was found with stab wounds at a house in | :12:35. | :12:39. | |
Hazelwood, at Hucknull, on Friday night. She died shortly afterwards, | :12:39. | :12:44. | |
in hospital. Detectives want to hear from anyone who may have had contact | :12:44. | :12:49. | |
with her in the last few weeks. Police are appealing for further | :12:49. | :12:52. | |
witnesses to come forward after the body of a man was found in a | :12:52. | :12:55. | |
burnt-out car in a Leicestershire village. Emergency services were | :12:55. | :12:58. | |
called to Frisby on the Wreake, in the early hours of yesterday | :12:58. | :13:01. | |
morning, where the body was discovered. Officers believe those | :13:01. | :13:04. | |
who attended Fristock, a local festival nearby, may have | :13:04. | :13:09. | |
information that could help the inquiry. They are continuing to | :13:09. | :13:16. | |
question three teenagers in connection with the incident. | :13:16. | :13:19. | |
While the Ashes test takes place at Trent Bridge, tens of thousands of | :13:19. | :13:22. | |
spectators will be coming to the city, many for the first time, and | :13:22. | :13:28. | |
many from all over the world. So, to help promote Nottingham and | :13:28. | :13:30. | |
give the best impression possible, a band of volunteers has been | :13:30. | :13:33. | |
recruited - very much like the hugely successful scheme that took | :13:33. | :13:35. | |
place in London during the Olympic games. | :13:35. | :13:45. | |
:13:45. | :13:47. | ||
With the next of her special reports on the Ashes, here's Sarah Teale. | :13:48. | :13:53. | |
During the Olympics, an 8000 strong band of volunteers were the | :13:53. | :13:57. | |
welcoming face of the games and helped visitors navigate their way | :13:57. | :14:01. | |
around. The idea was such a success that similar ambassadors have been | :14:01. | :14:07. | |
recruited for the Ashes, to meet and greet and get tourists and | :14:07. | :14:10. | |
spectators any help they need. June last month's one-day international | :14:10. | :14:16. | |
at Trent Bridge, the team were given their first test run. -- during. | :14:16. | :14:22. | |
These are our volunteers. Don't let us enter up to! Obviously, we have | :14:22. | :14:25. | |
trained volunteers. Today, they are having a trial run. There are nicely | :14:26. | :14:30. | |
dressed. They are getting a briefing so that they are able to do exactly | :14:30. | :14:34. | |
what they want to. The volunteers will be at the train | :14:34. | :14:38. | |
station, the streets and around the ground, making sure everyone who | :14:38. | :14:42. | |
comes to Nottingham gets the best impression of the city. Seven | :14:42. | :14:47. | |
seconds as a rule. Seven seconds will make an impression. We never | :14:47. | :14:50. | |
underestimate the power of volunteering. To be involved in the | :14:50. | :14:55. | |
Ashes, in Nottingham, is just marvellous. I volunteered at the | :14:55. | :15:00. | |
Paralympics and thought it was very worthwhile and enjoyable. As I live | :15:00. | :15:03. | |
in Nottingham, it would be nice to give something back to the | :15:03. | :15:07. | |
community. It is already public coming in, having a great time and I | :15:07. | :15:12. | |
want to be part of that and making sure they enjoy themselves. -- all | :15:12. | :15:18. | |
about the public. Community projects help Trent Bridge secure Ashes | :15:18. | :15:28. | |
matches, not just this year but, in 2015 also. | :15:28. | :15:38. | |
:15:38. | :15:39. | ||
More to come in sport. And, a blast from the past! | :15:39. | :15:49. | |
:15:49. | :15:56. | ||
This brew contains a heady dose of nostalgia. | :15:56. | :16:00. | |
Our sports team have been limbering up for the big clash for weeks now. | :16:00. | :16:03. | |
And finally, the teams have arrived. Colin's been at Trent Bridge with | :16:03. | :16:06. | |
England and Australia. This is wonderful. Its been a wait | :16:06. | :16:09. | |
of nearly eight years but at last Trent Bridge can welcome another | :16:09. | :16:15. | |
Ashes test and everything that goes with it. Surely the most beautiful | :16:15. | :16:18. | |
test ground in England. Don't you think? The England boys will all | :16:18. | :16:22. | |
think that if they can come up with a big first day on Wednesday and | :16:22. | :16:25. | |
then take the first test here in what promises to be glorious | :16:25. | :16:32. | |
weather. They arrive at this game with Britain riding a wave of | :16:32. | :16:35. | |
sporting glory. Nottinghamshire and England's Graeme Swann in a positive | :16:35. | :16:43. | |
mood today. The rugby was followed, you know, intently by all of us. And | :16:43. | :16:47. | |
then Andy Murray yesterday winning it for England, not just for | :16:47. | :16:50. | |
Scotland, but for the whole of the British Isles! It is fantastic and | :16:50. | :16:55. | |
we hope to do the same. There is a feel-good factor that comes from a | :16:55. | :16:58. | |
nation's sporting team doing well. We hope to tap into that and | :16:58. | :17:03. | |
hopefully, in six weeks' time, we can be beside those guys as | :17:03. | :17:10. | |
victorious English teams. Nottinghamshire's other hero will be | :17:10. | :17:15. | |
walking down these steps later. A man who has cricket in his blood. | :17:15. | :17:19. | |
His Dad played for England, his sister is an analyst for them. Not | :17:19. | :17:21. | |
only are they the country's most famous cricketing family, they also | :17:21. | :17:26. | |
run a charity very close to their Hearts. Kirsty Edwards reports. | :17:26. | :17:32. | |
The past few years have seen Stewart become a household name. The poster | :17:32. | :17:37. | |
boy of English cricket. It is a far cry from the days of playing in his | :17:37. | :17:45. | |
garden. I always had this big wall, my sister's -- outside my sister's | :17:45. | :17:49. | |
bedroom all. I used to throw a ball against it and hit it. Over the | :17:49. | :17:53. | |
years, it got a huge cracks in the middle so my mum banned me from | :17:53. | :18:00. | |
doing it. He was out there for hours. It was one of those things, | :18:00. | :18:04. | |
it was better to have him out of the house in the garden so he was not | :18:04. | :18:09. | |
disturbingly! On the field, Stewart has been living the dream. Three | :18:09. | :18:13. | |
years ago, the family was hit by tragedy with the death of their | :18:13. | :18:20. | |
stepmum. My wife was diagnosed with motor neuron disease in 2009, none | :18:20. | :18:25. | |
of us knew anything about it at that time. Following her death, they | :18:25. | :18:28. | |
launched an appeal, raising money for research and awareness of the | :18:28. | :18:35. | |
disease. When she was diagnosed, it is one of those diseases that really | :18:35. | :18:38. | |
affects you and want to have seen it, you don't ever want to stop | :18:38. | :18:42. | |
helping people with that. appeal's a huge part of the | :18:42. | :18:49. | |
family's life, as is cricket. What a summer for them with the Ashes. | :18:49. | :18:54. | |
Stewart's already had Ashes success, just like his dad before him. | :18:54. | :19:00. | |
Ashes memories are... A video he used to play me. It was him scoring | :19:00. | :19:04. | |
his runs! He says I forced into Watchet. There was none of it. He | :19:04. | :19:09. | |
was the one who wanted to watch it, more often than not. You can see the | :19:09. | :19:14. | |
pride when the Ashes come up. You can see him, the things you remember | :19:14. | :19:21. | |
for your whole life. The Ashes is always in my family. It has always | :19:21. | :19:26. | |
been huge. It's been built up, now, for | :19:26. | :19:31. | |
everyone. More Ashes talk in a moment but the first test here means | :19:31. | :19:34. | |
that Nottinghamshire must play away for quite a while. They started | :19:34. | :19:37. | |
their County Championship game at Surrey today needing points to keep | :19:37. | :19:39. | |
close to the leaders. Meanwhile, Derbyshire are at Durham, | :19:39. | :19:42. | |
also desperate for first division points - in their case, to try and | :19:42. | :19:45. | |
lift themselves off the bottom of also desperate for first division | :19:45. | :19:55. | |
:19:55. | :19:56. | ||
points Behind does Windows, or where the sports Rod Kassar 's work, | :19:56. | :20:06. | |
:20:06. | :20:06. | ||
including the Test match special legends. -- the sports broadcasters. | :20:06. | :20:08. | |
Including BBC Test match special's legendary commentator, Jonathan | :20:08. | :20:10. | |
Agnew, will be here. The broadcasting favourite lives in | :20:10. | :20:13. | |
Leicestershire and on the morning of the first test, how does he prepare | :20:13. | :20:16. | |
to broadcast to millions across the world? With a walk with his dogs. | :20:16. | :20:19. | |
Natalie and her greyhound Rosie went to join in. | :20:19. | :20:23. | |
How are you doing? I hope you have your walking Boots on. Kind of!Here | :20:23. | :20:33. | |
:20:33. | :20:38. | ||
is my dog. Here is the other one. Dutiful here. They can here you go. | :20:38. | :20:42. | |
On the morning of the first Ashes test at Trent Bridge, this is where | :20:42. | :20:47. | |
you will find Jonathan Agnew. Is this what you do to relax and take | :20:47. | :20:52. | |
your mind off it? Yes. An hour today, come up here. There are some | :20:52. | :20:56. | |
lovely walks. It is a bit of fun and the dogs run and swim and we throw | :20:56. | :21:06. | |
:21:06. | :21:07. | ||
sticks. Yes, this and mowing! It is a bit soggy. It is a question of | :21:07. | :21:15. | |
perspective, isn't it? Cricket is nonstop, these days. I am not too | :21:15. | :21:18. | |
thrilled about back-to-back Ashes. You can have too much of a good | :21:18. | :21:27. | |
thing. What are you doing in there? I am happy for Trent Bridge that | :21:27. | :21:31. | |
they have got this. This will put them on the map. Everyone is talking | :21:31. | :21:35. | |
about this match. We have had all the preamble in New Zealand. That is | :21:35. | :21:39. | |
all very interesting but is done and dusted. Now the real stuff is | :21:39. | :21:44. | |
coming. While England win?I think they're expecting them to do well. | :21:44. | :21:49. | |
Some people are expecting them to win 10-0! I don't think that'll | :21:49. | :21:54. | |
happen. It rarely happens. Australia are not great but they are not that | :21:54. | :21:58. | |
bad! You have covered getting on for 60 Ashes test series, do you ever | :21:58. | :22:08. | |
get bored? Never. In the first test of any series, it is a the best. | :22:08. | :22:11. | |
Listening on the radio as a kid, I remember jumping out of bed and | :22:11. | :22:21. | |
:22:21. | :22:22. | ||
leaping into a taxi. I said to him, the gamma! And he recognised me. He | :22:22. | :22:30. | |
said I was less handsome than I found of the radio! -- sound on the | :22:30. | :22:37. | |
radio. If this dog was like a cricketer, who would she be? I'm not | :22:37. | :22:41. | |
sure. She moves well. Legs like that, it would have to be Stuart | :22:41. | :22:51. | |
:22:51. | :22:51. | ||
Hall. The place is bubbling with excitement. Trent Bridge has enjoyed | :22:52. | :22:55. | |
welcoming the two teams for the practice sessions today. There is | :22:55. | :23:00. | |
lots more to come tomorrow. We have a special from here at Trent Bridge. | :23:00. | :23:04. | |
You won't want to miss it. We will be giving you the best seat in the | :23:04. | :23:08. | |
house. Excellent, can't wait. Next, I'll have a Shippo's. Say that | :23:08. | :23:11. | |
to anyone of a certain age in Nottingham and chances are they'll | :23:11. | :23:14. | |
get a little bit misty-eyed. A Shippo was a Shipstone's, a | :23:14. | :23:17. | |
locally made beer which was the pint of choice for generations of | :23:17. | :23:24. | |
drinkers. The ale was axed in 1990. But now, it's back. | :23:24. | :23:28. | |
All of which seemed the perfect excuse, not that I needed one, to | :23:28. | :23:38. | |
:23:38. | :23:38. | ||
visit a brewery. The Star Brewery in Nottingham was | :23:38. | :23:42. | |
once the biggest in the East Midlands. If a all was well known | :23:42. | :23:47. | |
throughout the city and beyond. It made its Victorian founder very | :23:47. | :23:53. | |
wealthy. Now, after a hiatus of 20 years, the beer is back. The | :23:53. | :23:57. | |
trademark and recipe acquired by this man. Richard Nieuwenhuizen | :23:57. | :24:00. | |
worked with the biggest brewers in the business but now, is going back | :24:00. | :24:07. | |
to his roots. -- Richard Newell. Everybody I talk to, has got a | :24:07. | :24:15. | |
story. It is about their first being Shippo's. Whether as themselves, | :24:15. | :24:20. | |
their parents, brothers, somebody has a story about it. The new | :24:20. | :24:23. | |
Shippo's is being made here, in Leicestershire. Colin Brown used to | :24:23. | :24:27. | |
work for the company at the old Brewery and some of the equipment he | :24:28. | :24:30. | |
is using came from there. The ingredients have not changed much | :24:30. | :24:36. | |
either. Have done our research, digging through the archives. I have | :24:36. | :24:39. | |
a good knowledge of what we were doing when the brewery closed. We | :24:39. | :24:42. | |
have combined those things and come up with something that we believe is | :24:42. | :24:46. | |
genuinely as close as we can get. Speciality ales like this are | :24:46. | :24:52. | |
catching on. It is a crowded marketplace now but Richard and | :24:52. | :24:55. | |
Colin wrecking that is a good thing. Then people are discovering locally | :24:55. | :24:58. | |
made there and the older generation are rediscovering a forgotten | :24:58. | :25:01. | |
flavour. If there is a bigger variety to choose from, all well and | :25:01. | :25:06. | |
good. So, the sun is over the yard and it is time to put this new there | :25:06. | :25:11. | |
to the test. I am going to hand it to the cameraman because I am told | :25:11. | :25:16. | |
he has a far more discerning palate than me. They are you are. Have a | :25:16. | :25:24. | |
little sick of that. A little drive. Thank you. -- a little sick. That | :25:24. | :25:32. | |
good? Uden tasty drop? No. Cameramen are | :25:32. | :25:42. | |
:25:42. | :25:47. | ||
always very thirsty. Let's have a will it has been a bit more bearable | :25:47. | :25:52. | |
for those who do not like the heat. The high pressure is in charge so | :25:52. | :25:55. | |
still dry but there is a little bit more moisture and cloud of the North | :25:55. | :25:59. | |
Sea. That small change can make a big difference to the look and feel | :25:59. | :26:03. | |
of the weather. That is how it has been in Lincolnshire, Leicestershire | :26:03. | :26:05. | |
and eastern parts of Nottinghamshire. We have had a lot | :26:05. | :26:09. | |
of crowd and temperatures have struggled to stop just 17 degrees in | :26:09. | :26:14. | |
Lincoln. Further west, were the best of that country and has been, again | :26:14. | :26:18. | |
we have peaked at 25 degrees. I think we are both going to be in the | :26:18. | :26:23. | |
same boat for tomorrow. We are going to see a lot of cloud in the first | :26:24. | :26:26. | |
throes of the morning but that should thin and break and get a blue | :26:26. | :26:30. | |
sky for the afternoon. It is not a bad evening. That cloud is starting | :26:30. | :26:33. | |
to thin and break. It is dry and clear for the first half of the | :26:33. | :26:38. | |
night but we will see that low crowd drifting back into words the end of | :26:38. | :26:41. | |
the night. A lot of cloud around to the end of the night. Temperatures | :26:41. | :26:46. | |
not much more than 13 or 14 degrees. A disappointing start for most of | :26:46. | :26:51. | |
us. A lot of low cloud around. I am quite hopeful that will break up, | :26:51. | :26:54. | |
quite quickly, throughout the morning. We should have that lush | :26:54. | :26:59. | |
blue sky back into the afternoon. Wall-to-wall sunshine. That will | :26:59. | :27:07. | |
last into the evening. As a result, temperatures climbing up. There is a | :27:07. | :27:10. | |
small blip for Wednesday. We have a very weak weather front that will | :27:10. | :27:16. | |
drift its base southwards. It will introduce a lot of cloud. Not many | :27:16. | :27:21. | |
interruptions for the first day Trent Bridge. It will be cooler and | :27:21. | :27:26. | |
a lot cloudier. That forms will be back with a vengeance by the end of | :27:26. | :27:29. | |
the week. The sunshine returns, plenty of other through Thursday and | :27:29. | :27:34. |
