:00:00. > :00:15.Thank you very much. That is it from both of us for

:00:16. > :00:21.With your news now for the East Midlands, I'm Maurice Flynn. #n A

:00:22. > :00:24.two`year`old girl fighting a rare form of cancer is to undergo

:00:25. > :00:27.specialist treatment overseas. It's hoped it'll not only save young

:00:28. > :00:30.Bethany's life, but also her face. The family from Nottingham leave for

:00:31. > :00:45.America on Tuesday, as Tom Brown reports.

:00:46. > :00:50.Four`year`old Kano is high `` this four`year`old boy knows how

:00:51. > :00:58.important family is, especially since his sister has cancer. I was

:00:59. > :01:01.scared when Bethany was sick. Bethany has a rare muscle tumour in

:01:02. > :01:05.her left cheek. If she had it removed here she could lose most of

:01:06. > :01:10.the left side of her face and an eye. Now, the NHS is flying Bethany

:01:11. > :01:13.and her parents to America. There they offer proton beam radiotherapy

:01:14. > :01:19.for a more controlled and more effective treatment. You can almost

:01:20. > :01:24.see the light at the end of the tunnel. Hopefully this is the bit

:01:25. > :01:31.that will finish it off and we will come back and that is hopefully

:01:32. > :01:34.done. And her brother will be there to after a charity and the local

:01:35. > :01:40.community chipped in to pay for his flight. Will you be happy to there

:01:41. > :01:47.with her? Yes, because I am her brother. Because I keep an eye on

:01:48. > :01:51.her, like my mummy said. The family leave on Tuesday to begin the 12

:01:52. > :01:55.weeks of treatment that could begin the end of Bethany's cancer ordeal.

:01:56. > :01:59.#n Police have been investigating what's been going on in Leicester to

:02:00. > :02:05.leave three people in need of hospital treatment. Three men were

:02:06. > :02:09.found with injuries in Rowan Street late last night. Two had been

:02:10. > :02:11.stabbed, one had a fractured rib. All three were arrested.

:02:12. > :02:14.The owner of Britain's largest private aquarium says the cost of

:02:15. > :02:18.electricity is forcing him to get rid of his exotic fish. After a

:02:19. > :02:21.mistake on his metre reading, Jack Heathcote was faced with an ?11,000

:02:22. > :02:28.arrears bill, as Quentin Rayner reports.

:02:29. > :02:33.Few of us will forget Jack swimming with his tropical fish in the

:02:34. > :02:37.basement of his home. It is Britain's biggest private aquarium

:02:38. > :02:41.but heating and filtering the water costs ?6,000 a year. The exotic

:02:42. > :02:45.fish, some of which weigh five stone, have to be sold or given away

:02:46. > :02:53.and replaced with cold water river fish to slash the bill. It is a

:02:54. > :02:55.tremendous blow. It has cut me up. I went to great lengths to provide a

:02:56. > :03:00.suitable home for these creatures and now I have got to get rid. Jack

:03:01. > :03:08.thought he was budgeting correctly but a misreading of the meter

:03:09. > :03:13.suggested he faced an 11th thousand pounds arrears bill, which has been

:03:14. > :03:17.revised to 4000. The way they have behaved has been atrocious. This

:03:18. > :03:22.should have recognised they made the mistake and been apologetic for it,

:03:23. > :03:29.and not been trying to charge me this enormous bill. British Gas say

:03:30. > :03:32.Mr Heathcote has not paid anything for months despite offers of help,

:03:33. > :03:36.and they seldom accurate meter readings. He is appealing against

:03:37. > :03:40.the arrears bill. British Gas is threatening disconnection.

:03:41. > :03:43.In Championship football tomorrow, fourth placed Derby host second

:03:44. > :03:49.place QPR ` the very side that brought McClaren back to English

:03:50. > :03:57.football. I could not say a bad word about

:03:58. > :04:03.him. Hopefully, the respect is there. The respect will be there in

:04:04. > :04:06.a matter what the result is. And to the weekend's ice hockey,

:04:07. > :04:09.which saw Nottingham Panthers beat Sheffield 5`2 last night. But a

:04:10. > :04:11.short while ago saw them defeated 4`3 at Hull, when it went to

:04:12. > :04:19.penalties. After a wet and windy weekend, more

:04:20. > :04:24.settled conditions tomorrow. Tonight, the concern is nice, which

:04:25. > :04:29.is why there is a weather warning in place. `` the concern is ayes. The

:04:30. > :04:35.skies are clearing and temperatures are dropping away. They will be

:04:36. > :04:38.close to freezing and some places. We are expecting frosts. Tomorrow, a

:04:39. > :04:42.settled day on the cards. The wind is much lighter. There will be like

:04:43. > :04:49.charmers around which may turn Widgery, particularly over higher

:04:50. > :04:54.ground. `` light showers around. Highs of five or six degrees. More

:04:55. > :04:57.wet and windy weather to come on Tuesday, unsettled and cold this

:04:58. > :05:00.week. Carol Hinds will have more for you

:05:01. > :05:08.in BBC Breakfast tomorrow, for now from your weekend team ` good night.

:05:09. > :05:15.Good evening. A little welcome news in this forecast, unfortunately As

:05:16. > :05:21.we have seen today the number of severe flood warnings has risen

:05:22. > :05:25.dramatically. We are fearful with more rain and

:05:26. > :05:31.gales forecast for the week ahead that will compound the problems
