With your news now for the East Midlands, I'm Maurice Flynn. A | :00:15. | :00:18. | |
church congregation has solved a century`old mystery about the fate | :00:19. | :00:22. | |
of a Nottingham man. His name was discovered by chance by his niece on | :00:23. | :00:26. | |
a war memorial, but no`one knew why it was there. James Roberson has | :00:27. | :00:36. | |
more. Recently, Christine from Arnold in Nottingham was visiting St | :00:37. | :00:39. | |
John's Church in Carrington for the first time in decades. During her | :00:40. | :00:44. | |
visit she looked at the great War Memorial inside and stumbled by | :00:45. | :00:49. | |
chance on her uncle's name. The family said she died in Rhodesia, as | :00:50. | :00:53. | |
it was then, and I thought, why was he in Rhodesia? Her father served in | :00:54. | :00:59. | |
the great War so Christine asked the church for help. Investigations by | :01:00. | :01:05. | |
the congregation at the church revealed William had left the family | :01:06. | :01:10. | |
home in Carrington and had served but in Northern Rhodesia, now | :01:11. | :01:17. | |
Zambia, in Africa. He was in the Northern Rhodesian police and | :01:18. | :01:21. | |
unfortunately, the pandemic of the flu in 1918 killed him on Christmas | :01:22. | :01:30. | |
Eve. But he was mentioned twice in dispatches. So on behalf of St | :01:31. | :01:36. | |
John's, I would like to present to you... The Commonwealth War Graves | :01:37. | :01:45. | |
commission presented her with this. I am very happy to know how his life | :01:46. | :01:50. | |
went and I'm sorry he died so early. Thanks to St John's and all of them | :01:51. | :01:54. | |
finding out for me. It's a mystery solved. | :01:55. | :02:02. | |
Derby County took on Nottingham Forest again today ` although this | :02:03. | :02:05. | |
time it was for charity. Former players from both clubs were taking | :02:06. | :02:08. | |
part in the Sport Relief Rivals match. Tom Brown was there. The | :02:09. | :02:11. | |
second time this weekend, local breaking rights up for grabs. Family | :02:12. | :02:17. | |
rivalries were put to the test. Can they get revenge today? Yes. No. | :02:18. | :02:30. | |
Today Long Eaton hosted the match. Unlike yesterday, the Nottingham | :02:31. | :02:34. | |
Forest fans had something to smile about. After going one up in the | :02:35. | :02:38. | |
first half, they got a free kick. They reminded the fans that class is | :02:39. | :02:45. | |
permanent. Another strike sealed the win. But today the real goal was | :02:46. | :02:51. | |
raising money for charity. We have played against each other loads of | :02:52. | :02:55. | |
times, and many other lads I have played with lots of times. It was | :02:56. | :03:04. | |
great, it's been a grey day. The buckets are full to bursting for | :03:05. | :03:09. | |
money. The crowd turnout, fantastic. If Leicester City are promoted next | :03:10. | :03:12. | |
season, their head of recruitment says they already have key playing | :03:13. | :03:15. | |
targets. Steve Walsh was speaking to BBC Late Kick Off, as they were | :03:16. | :03:18. | |
given access`all`areas at the club's training ground. And if Leicester do | :03:19. | :03:24. | |
return to the Premier League for the first time in a decade, do they need | :03:25. | :03:29. | |
new players? I think it's just key areas where we feel either cover all | :03:30. | :03:34. | |
an improvement. But we're going to run with what we have got, and from | :03:35. | :03:39. | |
them, we will try and build in key areas, suppose that. | :03:40. | :03:45. | |
In today's rugby, a six try triumph for Leicester Tigers against Exeter. | :03:46. | :03:49. | |
Manu Tuilangi scored on his first home appearance since his comeback | :03:50. | :03:52. | |
from injury ` seeing Tigers win 45`15. In the championship, | :03:53. | :03:56. | |
Nottingham lost 17`11 at Cornish Pirates. Now a weekend of sunshine | :03:57. | :04:00. | |
and showers can be annoying, or inspiring ` it would seem! Thanks | :04:01. | :04:04. | |
for all your rainbow pictures this weekend. You'll find them on our | :04:05. | :04:07. | |
Facebook page, including this one showing the end of the rainbow which | :04:08. | :04:10. | |
Margaret shot at Carsington Water. No gold, but let's see now from | :04:11. | :04:14. | |
Kaye, what the weather chucking our way next! | :04:15. | :04:19. | |
We have a ridge of high pressure pushing in, helping to kill off the | :04:20. | :04:27. | |
showers and break up the cloud. Clear skies tonight, with the winds | :04:28. | :04:30. | |
easing down, we have a widespread frost on the cards. Look at these | :04:31. | :04:37. | |
temperatures! Definitely a cold start the new working week but lots | :04:38. | :04:41. | |
of lovely sunshine around through the morning. Some higher cloud | :04:42. | :04:47. | |
rolling in, but drier, writer afternoon and it should feel a | :04:48. | :04:50. | |
little warmer as well, with a slightly lighter wind | :04:51. | :04:55. | |
that it from us. Tomorrow good night. | :04:56. | :05:07. | |
Today's showers have almost gone from eastern areas, it will be a | :05:08. | :05:16. | |
classic radiation night, clear skies, light winds, temperatures | :05:17. | :05:20. | |
tumbling. The night could still get down to -6 in rural Scotland and | :05:21. | :05:25. | |
northern England, the coldest it has been for quite a few months. It will | :05:26. | :05:31. | |
not be as cold elsewhere. Cloud arrives ahead of the weather front, | :05:32. | :05:35. | |
which brings rain from the Atlantic to western parts of the UK. Further | :05:36. | :05:41. | |
east, it will be dry. Quite a bit of sunshine, so a good-looking day | :05:42. | :05:46. | |
across Scotland. Western areas tending to cloud over later. It will | :05:47. | :05:50. | |
cloud over quickly in Northern Ireland. For northern England, | :05:51. | :05:56. | |
through the Midlands, eastern England, it will be a bright and | :05:57. | :06:02. | |
sunny day. Hazy for the afternoon, but double figures after the frosty | :06:03. | :06:08. | |
start. But whether for Wales and the south-west of | :06:09. | :06:09. |
