:00:00. > :00:16.That is all from us. Don't forget there's a first look

:00:17. > :00:22.Good evening. An inquest's been told that a

:00:23. > :00:25.control room mix`up meant an ambulance took five hours to reach a

:00:26. > :00:28.man in need. Further delays in hospital meant it was sever`l hours

:00:29. > :00:31.before Stewart Maltby received treatment for his dehydration. So

:00:32. > :00:47.why did it take so long for the ambulance to arrive? When the GP

:00:48. > :00:51.went round to his house in Nottinghamshire, he said he was very

:00:52. > :00:59.vulnerable and he needed an ambulance within two hours, maximum.

:01:00. > :01:08.There was a mix`up at the Albulance Service, somebody did not thck a box

:01:09. > :01:14.at the centre and it bought it was four hours. In the end it took five

:01:15. > :01:16.hours to reach the house, shx hours into the Queen's Medical Centre and

:01:17. > :01:21.14 hours before the dehydrated patient got fluids. Have thdy made

:01:22. > :01:27.any improvements in the Ambtlance Service? We heard at the inpuest,

:01:28. > :01:33.that there had been improvelents. Arriving today was the family

:01:34. > :01:36.solicitor who cross`examined a lot of the witnesses. He was told there

:01:37. > :01:41.had been improvements and the Ambulance Service had a dedhcated

:01:42. > :01:46.team were dealing with thesd calls, GP urgent referrals to hosphtal and

:01:47. > :01:49.the computer system had been changed to stop this happening again. What

:01:50. > :01:55.about the problems when he finally got to the hospital? The chronology

:01:56. > :02:00.is difficult to follow becatse of gaps in the medical records. Not

:02:01. > :02:05.everything was written down. But a picture emerged today of st`ff being

:02:06. > :02:09.rushed off their feet. We hdard from a nurse who said with hindshght they

:02:10. > :02:16.should have done more checks with fluids but thought the ward was

:02:17. > :02:19.understaffed and this is back in November 2012 and we know the

:02:20. > :02:26.patient died two days after being admitted into hospital. Thank you.

:02:27. > :02:29.Bin the blade and keep out of prison is the message being sent to

:02:30. > :02:32.teenagers at schools across Leicester. The warning is p`rt of a

:02:33. > :02:35.hard`hitting police road show visiting secondary schools hn the

:02:36. > :02:38.city which aims to show the dangers of being involved in knife crime.

:02:39. > :02:55.Victoria Hicks reports. Knife crime isn't a game. The

:02:56. > :03:01.message being taught to teenagers across the city. Leicestershire

:03:02. > :03:04.Police recorded 441 night rdlated offences in the past year. Ht is a

:03:05. > :03:09.crime some students at this community college have experienced

:03:10. > :03:15.first hand. I looked out of my window and saw one guy take out a

:03:16. > :03:19.long knife and stab somebodx. The guy was on the floor bleeding and

:03:20. > :03:22.coughing up road. I know soleone who has carried a knife in school for a

:03:23. > :03:29.friend. They were found with the knife so they were excluded. This

:03:30. > :03:34.young offender was 16 when he was involved in knife crime. We cannot

:03:35. > :03:39.identify him because of his age and his supervision order. He asked in

:03:40. > :03:45.for his phone and then pulldd out a blade. I did not know anythhng was

:03:46. > :03:50.going to happen. So I am associated in knife crime. Before I kndw it, he

:03:51. > :03:55.took the phone off him and was walking away. That was it, H wasn't

:03:56. > :04:03.the begin of person to walk away and say stop. We all know that hs an

:04:04. > :04:10.offensive weapon? This colldge excluded two of its pupils last year

:04:11. > :04:14.for carrying a knife. An attempt is being made to rescue

:04:15. > :04:19.an ambitious project to cut domestic energy bills on one of the country's

:04:20. > :04:22.biggest housing estates. A Nottingham MP is demanding the

:04:23. > :04:30.government reconsiders its decision to scrap a multi`million potnd

:04:31. > :04:34.scheme to make homes much w`rmer. And tonight there is a hint of a

:04:35. > :04:42.change of heart. Here's our Political Editor, John Hess.

:04:43. > :04:45.They have got a lot in common, related and living in simil`r homes

:04:46. > :04:52.on the same state, but when it comes to the cost of heating their homes,

:04:53. > :05:00.there is a big difference. Katrina's domestic fuel bills are

:05:01. > :05:06.rising. She pays ?135 a month. It is really cold inside and the heating

:05:07. > :05:11.bills are increasing. Her sister`in`law's bills this xear of

:05:12. > :05:17.?400 cheaper because they h`ve a government backed scheme. It stays

:05:18. > :05:25.warmer longer and the boiler doesn't run for as long. The Labour MP wants

:05:26. > :05:29.the government to reinstate the project and is raising the hssue in

:05:30. > :05:33.Parliament. It is good for `ll others, not just those living in

:05:34. > :05:40.those homes, but if we can bring down energy for everybody. Hn a

:05:41. > :05:43.Parliamentary debate, Lilli`n Greenwood won this concession from

:05:44. > :05:49.the government. We are workhng closely with Nottingham on ` new bid

:05:50. > :05:54.for our green deal communithes. They have put in a robust propos`l. Far

:05:55. > :05:59.from being dead and over, the scheme has every reason to be optilistic.

:06:00. > :06:03.The government says home insulation costs are coming down rapidly

:06:04. > :06:09.without the need for a levy on domestic fuel bills to warm up those

:06:10. > :06:14.cold homes. We have plenty of football news

:06:15. > :06:31.There's been a full set of latches played this evening.

:06:32. > :06:41.That's your news. So, it's goodbye from me but now the weather.

:06:42. > :06:49.We have had some beautiful sunshine this sat noon. Some others had to

:06:50. > :06:55.wait a little while before we saw the sunshine, but it was worth the

:06:56. > :06:58.wait. Tomorrow we'll start off a misty and murky with fog to content

:06:59. > :07:02.with. But eventually the sunshine will be coming back through for the

:07:03. > :07:06.afternoon. Clear skies at the moment, and cloud will be rolling

:07:07. > :07:09.back in in the early hours `nd we will see this mist and fog forming

:07:10. > :07:14.by the end of the night. Quhte chilly for some, under clearer skies

:07:15. > :07:21.it will be close to freezing. Tomorrow morning, a murky start low

:07:22. > :07:24.cloud around with mist and fog. Eventually the mist will cldar but

:07:25. > :07:29.the cloud will take longer through the day, so it might linger across

:07:30. > :07:30.northern and western parts. The best of the sunshine is in the south and

:07:31. > :07:34.east. But it Thursday. It will brighten up as the

:07:35. > :07:40.day goes on. Here is the UK forecast.

:07:41. > :07:44.Plenty of dry weather over the next few days, especially across southern

:07:45. > :07:51.areas. That is courtesy of high-pressure, keeping the weather

:07:52. > :07:59.fronts at bay to the north-west It was cold and grey across southern

:08:00. > :08:00.areas today. Further north, lots of bustling sunshine after a cold
