A permanent tribute was unveiled today in Mansfield for a former | :00:19. | :00:22. | |
soldier. Lee Bonsall took his own life. His family believe he suffered | :00:23. | :00:26. | |
from post`traumatic stress disorder. Amy Harris reports. | :00:27. | :00:30. | |
On a sunny spring morning, family and friends of Lee Bonsall gathered | :00:31. | :00:36. | |
at Mansfield Heroes Memorial. Two years to the month after the former | :00:37. | :00:40. | |
soldier took his own life, a stone has been laid here to remember him. | :00:41. | :00:45. | |
It means everything. It's just lovely, just really, really nice. | :00:46. | :00:50. | |
Makes me feel so proud. Private Bonsall served in Afghanistan but | :00:51. | :00:53. | |
was discharged from the Army in 2007. His family believe he suffered | :00:54. | :00:58. | |
from post`traumatic stress disorder after a friend he fought alongside | :00:59. | :01:04. | |
was shot dead. It's really, really important that we remember people | :01:05. | :01:08. | |
like Lee, because there are far too many people that are coming home | :01:09. | :01:11. | |
from serving their country in war`torn places like Iraq and | :01:12. | :01:17. | |
Afghanistan and taking their lives. This ceremony was an opportunity for | :01:18. | :01:21. | |
those who knew Lee Bonsall best to say a final farewell, and in this | :01:22. | :01:25. | |
quiet corner of Carr Bank Park, he will for ever be honoured alongside | :01:26. | :01:26. | |
Mansfield's fallen heroes. Lincolnshire police say they are | :01:27. | :01:40. | |
treating as "unexplained" the death of a man in Grantham this weekend. | :01:41. | :01:45. | |
He was found dead inside a house on Oxford Street. Police believe the | :01:46. | :01:49. | |
44`year`old suffered a head injury. It will be decided this week if | :01:50. | :01:52. | |
buses will be allowed into Loughborough's newly revamped town | :01:53. | :01:56. | |
centre, even on a trial basis. Jo Healey reports. | :01:57. | :01:59. | |
Buses are welcome into Loughborough, just not through its marketplace. | :02:00. | :02:04. | |
The town is undergoing a ?20 million face`lift, and most people living | :02:05. | :02:07. | |
here want the centre to be fully pedestrianised. We've got the old | :02:08. | :02:12. | |
side over here, which is Churchgate, who are complaining there's not | :02:13. | :02:15. | |
enough business for them, and then you've got buses running through | :02:16. | :02:18. | |
here, 49 an hour, which are trundling down the high street at a | :02:19. | :02:23. | |
rate of knots. So we're trying to make the town centre a better, | :02:24. | :02:26. | |
safer, more beautiful place to live in. Their bid is backed by retail | :02:27. | :02:30. | |
guru Mary Portas, and 1,300 people answered a county council survey. | :02:31. | :02:36. | |
The responses showed that just over 35% of people would prefer the road | :02:37. | :02:40. | |
to stay as it is, with buses going up and down here. But more than 54% | :02:41. | :02:46. | |
of people want the town centre to be a bus`free zone. There has to be | :02:47. | :02:54. | |
some way that we can find it that meets what the county council needs | :02:55. | :02:57. | |
to have as its duty as highways authority and what people in the | :02:58. | :03:01. | |
town want. The decision on the bus trial will be made on Tuesday. | :03:02. | :03:08. | |
Former Nottingham rugby star David Jackson led a charity cycle today | :03:09. | :03:12. | |
ahead of afternoon's game. The group cycled 80 miles from Leeds to | :03:13. | :03:16. | |
Nottingham before the two sides met at Meadow Lane. Money was being | :03:17. | :03:19. | |
raised for Headway. It's after serious concussion on the pitch saw | :03:20. | :03:25. | |
him leave the sport. I had to retire through a brain injury, and I wanted | :03:26. | :03:28. | |
to do something for people in far worse situations than I am. I can | :03:29. | :03:34. | |
complain about getting the odd headache and seeing stars when I'm | :03:35. | :03:37. | |
cycling over 80 miles, but for some people, it's devastating for their | :03:38. | :03:43. | |
life. In the game, Nottingham lost to Leeds 20`27. | :03:44. | :03:46. | |
Nottingham Panthers crashed out of the Elite League play`offs this | :03:47. | :03:50. | |
weekend after a mauling at the hands of Braehead Clan. Panthers were 4`0 | :03:51. | :03:53. | |
down after the first leg of the quarterfinals then lost 5`1 last | :03:54. | :03:57. | |
night in the second leg. It saw them finish 9`1 on aggregate. | :03:58. | :03:59. | |
Discussing the weekend's Football League action, Late Kick Off is here | :04:00. | :04:02. | |
on BBC One tomorrow. Stan Collymore and Eric Steale, Derby County's | :04:03. | :04:05. | |
goalkeeping coach, join Manish in the studio at 11:20. | :04:06. | :04:10. | |
Now the weather, with Charlie. Good evening to you. Well, we start | :04:11. | :04:15. | |
the night dry, but unfortunately we're probably not going to end the | :04:16. | :04:19. | |
night dry, because as you can see, although it's clear at the moment, | :04:20. | :04:23. | |
the cloud starts to move up from the south and in behind it some showers. | :04:24. | :04:27. | |
Now, the majority of them are light and drizzly, but there is a chance | :04:28. | :04:30. | |
that we might get the odd little slightly heavier pulse mixed up in | :04:31. | :04:34. | |
there in those showers. But as you can see there from those | :04:35. | :04:37. | |
temperatures, it is certainly going to be a mild night. As we go through | :04:38. | :04:41. | |
into Monday, then, we have to put up with those showers through the | :04:42. | :04:44. | |
morning. It's generally a drying theme as we go into the afternoon. I | :04:45. | :04:48. | |
wouldn't want to guarantee a completely dry afternoon. There | :04:49. | :04:51. | |
might be the odd spot of drizzle around, but it is mainly dry in the | :04:52. | :04:54. | |
afternoon, if not overly bright, and that is reflected there in those | :04:55. | :04:57. | |
temperatures. But thankfully, don't worry, things will get better as we | :04:58. | :05:01. | |
go through the rest of the working week. | :05:02. | :05:10. | |
The southerly winds of this weekend will maintain some warmth into next | :05:11. | :05:19. | |
week. The air pollution index in England and Wales is set to reach | :05:20. | :05:20. |
