:00:00. > :00:07.This is East Midlands Today with Dominic Heale and Anne Davids.
:00:08. > :00:18.Our troubled Ambulance Servhce is under fire again.
:00:19. > :00:23.Welcome to Wednesday's programme. Police investigate reports of
:00:24. > :00:30.gunfire on a city street. Plus fire engulfs a chapel where the
:00:31. > :00:37.family of D.H Lawrence is btried. Hello. I'm Warwick Davis. Fhnd out
:00:38. > :00:42.why I'm treading the boards here with the Reduced Height The`tre
:00:43. > :00:49.Kyoto protocol. `` Theatre Company.
:00:50. > :00:54.Good evening. Welcome to Wednesday's programme.
:00:55. > :00:59.First tonight more criticisl of the East Midlands Ambulance Service
:01:00. > :01:01.Inspectors from the Care Qu`lity Commission inspected the troubled
:01:02. > :01:07.trust and found a number of essential standards are not being
:01:08. > :01:10.met. Against a backdrop of tight finances and ever increasing demand,
:01:11. > :01:15.staff spoke of being overworked and under`resourced. More improvements
:01:16. > :01:19.have been ordered. In a momdnt we'll hear from the woman with possibly
:01:20. > :01:28.the unenviable task of turnhng the organisation around. But first our
:01:29. > :01:31.Health Correspondent Rob Sissons reports on the challenges f`cing the
:01:32. > :01:34.service. Year after year thd control room answers record numbers of 99
:01:35. > :01:39.calls, but how in control is the service? It is not rocket science,
:01:40. > :01:44.it seems it can be a diffictlt art though to get there quickment here
:01:45. > :01:48.is just three examples. First tonight, the ambulancd and
:01:49. > :01:53.hospital delays that led to the death of a Nottinghamshire lan.
:01:54. > :01:57.Brady Watson was playing football last month in Nottingham whdn a
:01:58. > :02:01.tackle left him face down on the ground with a broken leg thd he
:02:02. > :02:04.would be there for almost three hours before ambulance crews
:02:05. > :02:10.arrived. It was a low priority case, but it
:02:11. > :02:14.left an East Midlands woman waiting for an ambulance for hours. The
:02:15. > :02:18.inspectors looked at six care standards. Now the East Midlands
:02:19. > :02:22.Ambulance Service missed fotr of them. The reasons, well minhmum
:02:23. > :02:28.response times to life thre`tening calls were not met. Inspectors also
:02:29. > :02:32.found there were not enough vehicles and insufficient staff suit`bly
:02:33. > :02:36.qualified, skilled and experienced. Standards hit, infection control and
:02:37. > :02:42.a good complaints system was recognised, but this reveals the big
:02:43. > :02:46.improvements still needed. We recognise that the trust has made
:02:47. > :02:49.some improvements. They havd got a long way to go in terms of leeting
:02:50. > :02:52.the essential standards of puality and safety.
:02:53. > :02:58.Staff told inspectors what ht is like. We put other peoples voices to
:02:59. > :03:02.their comments. I can spend half my shift looking for a spare vdhicle.
:03:03. > :03:06.We don't have enough resources on the road. We are short of staff it
:03:07. > :03:12.is horrendous. Sometimes we have three people to do the same job Now
:03:13. > :03:21.some 999 calls, the less serious ones are getting advice rather than
:03:22. > :03:25.an ambulance. It eases frontline pressure, but patients don't like
:03:26. > :03:30.it. Their first argument maxbe I wanted an ambulance, that's why I
:03:31. > :03:35.rang for an ambulance. After so many changes, Sue Noyes is the ndw woman
:03:36. > :03:39.filling in at top. If she h`s ambitions for the job permanently,
:03:40. > :03:44.it is likely sustained improvement will have to be delivered.
:03:45. > :03:48.Sue is with us. Can sustaindd improvement be delivered?
:03:49. > :03:52.We are focussed on improving and sustaining the service that we have.
:03:53. > :03:55.We were able to demonstrate in March that we delivered close to the
:03:56. > :04:02.national response targets, but clearly, we are not complacdnt, we
:04:03. > :04:05.know we have to improve. March was on improvement, but if Febrtary
:04:06. > :04:09.nearly all the targets were missed. It is not much of an improvdment, is
:04:10. > :04:11.it? It isn't, but it is a significant improvement for the
:04:12. > :04:15.trust. They hadn't delivered previously in March on some of the
:04:16. > :04:19.key targets, but I would stress we are in no way complacent. Wd
:04:20. > :04:22.recognise and it is mentiondd in the report, we are in the middld of a
:04:23. > :04:26.quality improvement programle. I was asked to come to the trust to do
:04:27. > :04:29.just that and that's what wd're in the middle doing. With respdct, we
:04:30. > :04:33.have heard these promises of improvements and the pledges before.
:04:34. > :04:37.You can point to individual monthly improvements, but overall, for years
:04:38. > :04:42.now, the trust has failed to hit all of its targets. You are not keeping
:04:43. > :04:47.the plates spinning, are yot? This is some long`standing issues that we
:04:48. > :04:52.have and we are addressing. The improvement programme is not about
:04:53. > :04:56.the frontline response times, it is about every bit of the organisation
:04:57. > :04:59.working as best it can. There are a number of comments in the rdport. I
:05:00. > :05:04.have been open and talked about the fact that we need to improvd morale
:05:05. > :05:09.and improve opportunities for our staff to progress. The report says
:05:10. > :05:12.morale is rock bottom? When I joined the trust and I was clear and I
:05:13. > :05:15.talked about this openly th`t we need to do more. We are listening to
:05:16. > :05:20.our staff. We are wanting to engage with them. And we want to ptt the
:05:21. > :05:25.opportunities in there for them to develop, but there is more for us to
:05:26. > :05:28.do. This report, one of the central conclusions could not be worse given
:05:29. > :05:32.that you run an Ambulance Sdrvice. The bottom line is that according to
:05:33. > :05:36.the inspectors, minimum response standards to life threatening calls
:05:37. > :05:40.are not being met. People c`nnot be assured they will receive c`re in a
:05:41. > :05:45.timely and effective manner. What is the point of an ambulance sdrvice if
:05:46. > :05:49.they That can't be guarantedd? We are clear that's what I'm hdre to
:05:50. > :05:54.do. It is what the new team will be here to do. We want to deliver. When
:05:55. > :05:58.do you think you are going to be able to deliver this? We have heard
:05:59. > :06:03.this so many times before. Ht will be delivered, but nobody saxs it
:06:04. > :06:07.will be by then? Our contract, with our commissioners, demonstr`tes that
:06:08. > :06:10.we have to deliver and we are tied to deliver on that contract. We want
:06:11. > :06:14.to deliver. The whole organhsation, when I have been in there h`s said
:06:15. > :06:18.to me, we don't want to be where we are, we want to make the
:06:19. > :06:21.improvements. When? We have to deliver from this month. We have to
:06:22. > :06:25.start delivering at a trust wide level and through the coursd of this
:06:26. > :06:28.next year, we need to start delivering on individual cotnty wide
:06:29. > :06:31.levels as well. One of the things you have to look
:06:32. > :06:36.at is the issue of vehicles and equipment. In the report, you will
:06:37. > :06:41.have seen it, one staff member recounted how an ambulance developed
:06:42. > :06:43.a flat battery on a call out. The family of the person they wdre
:06:44. > :06:48.called to had to use their jump leads to restart the ambulance.
:06:49. > :06:51.Clearly, that's a poor standard of care and a poor standard of
:06:52. > :06:55.experience and I wouldn't w`nt us to have that. I recognise that and we
:06:56. > :06:59.do apologise to people when we get it wrong. They mention very often,
:07:00. > :07:02.all the staff say there is not enough staff. How many more staff
:07:03. > :07:08.have you recruited and by that, I mean net staff? Actually dpra
:07:09. > :07:12.numbers? `` extra numbers? We have rdcruited
:07:13. > :07:16.over 110 new staff. There is a mix of par med UK's and emergency care
:07:17. > :07:20.assistants. I want to ask you about the emergency care assistants.
:07:21. > :07:23.Again, they say, one of thel speaking to on the report, ht says
:07:24. > :07:30.that it is frightening becatse people expect experts, ie p`ramedics
:07:31. > :07:37.turn up, they turn up and they can't give paracetamol. The clock stops
:07:38. > :07:43.when they get there. The emdrgency care assistants, an important role.
:07:44. > :07:45.They support the paramedics in the traditional ambulances such as you
:07:46. > :07:48.see behind me, but their role is to support. We have opened up
:07:49. > :07:52.opportunities for them to do increased training. But we `re also
:07:53. > :07:57.recruiting more paramedics `nd clearly, this is something that we
:07:58. > :08:01.keep under review and we look and say what else do we need? Vhewers
:08:02. > :08:06.watching you at home maybe wondering what will happen tonight if I fall
:08:07. > :08:10.seriously ill or if I am in a bad accident? Will I be able to rely on
:08:11. > :08:13.an ambulance turning up in time You will be. We are strengthening a
:08:14. > :08:21.number of areas. We are in the middle of an improvement programme
:08:22. > :08:25.and we k recognise this is going to take sometime. We are not complacent
:08:26. > :08:30.and we know what we need to do. Sue, thank you very much indeed for
:08:31. > :08:36.coming in and speaking to us. Still to come: The Premier League
:08:37. > :08:39.party that fell a little fl`t. After the highs of promotion, it is
:08:40. > :08:47.back down to earth with a btmp for Leicester.
:08:48. > :08:51.Detectives investigating a shooting in Nottingham are asking for help
:08:52. > :08:56.from hospitals across the E`st Midlands. They're trying to trace a
:08:57. > :09:00.man who's believed to have been shot in the foot. Let's cross to St Ann's
:09:01. > :09:05.and our Social Affairs Correspondent, Jeremy Ball. Good
:09:06. > :09:09.evening. What more can you tell us? Well, it is more than 24 hotrs now
:09:10. > :09:15.since the police were called here after a fight outside this takeaway.
:09:16. > :09:18.Some people heard a loud bang, but it is far from clear what h`ppened
:09:19. > :09:21.here. Throughout the day, officers have been scouring the scend here.
:09:22. > :09:26.We are told they have found evidence that a gun was fired. So far though,
:09:27. > :09:30.no damage and no victim. Tonight, they are investigating CCTV
:09:31. > :09:34.recordings. Some of that footage appears to show a man being shot in
:09:35. > :09:38.the foot and now, officers `cross the region are being asked to help
:09:39. > :09:45.them trace that man. Detecthves want to trace a group of men who were
:09:46. > :09:49.seen arriving here in a blud Ford Focus. That was around the same
:09:50. > :09:53.time, around 4pm yesterday `fternoon and finding that car and its
:09:54. > :09:56.passengers are a priority tonight. Thank you.
:09:57. > :09:59.The Loughborough MP Nicky Morgan is to become the new Financial
:10:00. > :10:03.Secretary to the Treasury. Lorgan will also attend Cabinet in the role
:10:04. > :10:06.of Minister for Women. The reshuffle has been sparked by the reshgnation
:10:07. > :10:12.of Culture Secretary, Maria Miller. The Conservative MP for Loughborough
:10:13. > :10:16.was elected in 2010. The owner of a care home has denied
:10:17. > :10:19.breaching health and safety rules after an elderly resident w`s killed
:10:20. > :10:22.by a falling wardrobe. 80`ydar`old Ena Bennett is thought to h`ve
:10:23. > :10:27.suffocated underneath the w`rdrobe when it toppled onto her. It
:10:28. > :10:34.happened at this care home `t Milford in Derbyshire, two xears
:10:35. > :10:37.ago. Owner Gerald Hudson today pleaded
:10:38. > :10:40.not guilty before Derby magistrates'. He'll now facd a trial
:10:41. > :10:43.at the city's crown court. @ A former chapel in Nottingh`mshire
:10:44. > :10:47.may have to be demolished after a fire. The blaze broke out in the
:10:48. > :10:50.early hours of this morning. No one was injured, but it took several
:10:51. > :10:53.hours to bring under control. The building is in the grounds of
:10:54. > :10:57.Eastwood Cemetery where somd members of the writer D.H Lawrence's family
:10:58. > :11:01.are buried. Helen Astle reports Through the trees, you can see the
:11:02. > :11:08.flames and smoke of the fird lighting up the night sky. By day,
:11:09. > :11:12.it is a bleak picture. The former chapel has been severely dalaged.
:11:13. > :11:17.Simon Taylor lives nearby and filmed the fire. I woke up when my little
:11:18. > :11:20.boy woke up and I could smell smoke and I looked out the door and I
:11:21. > :11:26.could see a big orange glow in the sky over there. There is fl`mes all
:11:27. > :11:30.coming up which, it was massive you could tell it wasn't a garddn fire.
:11:31. > :11:34.The roof was aplays. You can `` ablaze. You can hear the rafters
:11:35. > :11:38.burning and clattering away and falling into the church. It was a
:11:39. > :11:46.fireball to be honest. The Fire Brigade were called at around 1
:11:47. > :11:51.50am. 30 firefighters tackldd the blaze including some who were called
:11:52. > :11:57.from neighbouring Derbyshird to help. It was large enough and
:11:58. > :12:01.significant enough to not commit crews inside the building. There is
:12:02. > :12:04.significant structural damage. There is risk of collapse now.
:12:05. > :12:08.Investigations have been continuing throughout the day to find out
:12:09. > :12:15.exactly how this fire startdd. It seems likely that this formdr chapel
:12:16. > :12:19.that was built in 1888 will have to be demolished.
:12:20. > :12:24.A refugee from Somalia has told a murder trial that he stabbed the
:12:25. > :12:28.football coach Antoin Akpom in self`defence. He said it was after
:12:29. > :12:31.he and another teenager werd threatened with a dumbbell on a
:12:32. > :12:35.Leicester street. 19`year`old Hussain Hussain said it was a
:12:36. > :12:39.split`second decision. He fdared for his life after Mr Akpom and a group
:12:40. > :12:42.of men confronted him and Abdul Hakim. From Stafford Crown Court
:12:43. > :12:51.here's Quentin Rayner. Hussain Hussain came to the UK as a
:12:52. > :12:58.refugee when he was seven. Last June, he shared a prison cell with
:12:59. > :13:02.his co accused Abdul Hakim. The Somalian's conviction include
:13:03. > :13:06.carrying a knife. He said the pair of them were watchdogging along Kent
:13:07. > :13:11.Street when Antoin Akpom ch`llenged Abdul Hakim for being in his area.
:13:12. > :13:16.Moments later, he returned with six other well`built men from a nearby
:13:17. > :13:20.gym and swung a dumbbell at them. Hussain Hussain described how Abdul
:13:21. > :13:26.Hakim produced a knife, but it dropped to the ground. He s`id, " I
:13:27. > :13:34.made the decision to pick it up and strike Abdul Hakim." The st`bbing
:13:35. > :13:41.was a split second decision." Zblefs He was asked by his QC if hd
:13:42. > :13:46.intended to stab Abdul Hakil? No, sir. Was asked how he felt `bout the
:13:47. > :13:58.football coach dying. He sahd pretty bad. My actions caused his death.
:13:59. > :14:00.Antoin Akpom's mother left the court in distress. Hours after thd
:14:01. > :14:08.stabbing, four members of the same family were killed in a fird at a
:14:09. > :14:12.house two doors down from Abdul Hakim's mother's home.
:14:13. > :14:23.Both teenagers deny murder. Next the third in our series on this
:14:24. > :14:26.region's links with Brazil. Hundreds of Brazilian students are now
:14:27. > :14:29.studying in our universities. Their Government pays for many of them to
:14:30. > :14:32.go overseas to be educated. De Montfort University in Leicdster
:14:33. > :14:37.says it's a new and important market and it has set up a partnership with
:14:38. > :14:42.a university in the City of Sao Paulo. Mike O'Sullivan reports.
:14:43. > :14:49.In the heart of the Sao Paulo three university students who havd
:14:50. > :14:52.returned home after spending a year at De Montfort University in
:14:53. > :15:01.Leicester. Something like the snow that they will never forget It
:15:02. > :15:05.strengthened the links betwden two cultures, Brazil and the Brhtish
:15:06. > :15:11.culture. It is important to maintain this link. Like Leicester, no one
:15:12. > :15:19.knows about Leicester. When you say, "I went to Leicester." And they say,
:15:20. > :15:23."Oh, Leicester Square in London " Everybody that was there was doing
:15:24. > :15:27.the same thing as me, studyhng abroad. De Montfort Univershty has
:15:28. > :15:32.signed a partnership deal on research and teaching with LcKenzie
:15:33. > :15:38.University in Sao Paulo. It comes as the Brazilian Government ails to
:15:39. > :15:40.send 100,000 students oversdas in its science without borders
:15:41. > :15:49.programme. On a foggy morning in Leicester two
:15:50. > :15:55.Brazilian students. I wanted to come to England, to the UK, to ldarn
:15:56. > :16:01.about public health because we have a very famous system, the NHS. This
:16:02. > :16:05.knowledge, it will make me ` step ahead of everyone else just for the
:16:06. > :16:09.experience that I had here. Back in Sao Paulo, the head of McKenzie
:16:10. > :16:23.University told me they havd much in common with De Montfort University.
:16:24. > :16:28.Some Some research maybe usdd. This partnership will be very frtitful.
:16:29. > :16:33.De Montfort University describes Brazil as an important markdt as it
:16:34. > :16:40.aims to find new income strdams and become an international university.
:16:41. > :16:48.That's the end of Mike's report from Brazil. It has been fantasthc. He
:16:49. > :16:53.never mentioned coffee once though! Still to come:
:16:54. > :16:57.A towering talent. We catch up with the actor Warwick Davis, st`r of the
:16:58. > :17:09.silver screen and founder of the Reduced Height Theatre Comp`ny. He
:17:10. > :17:13.is great. Another towering tea lent is Natalie.
:17:14. > :17:16.`` talent is Natalie. First tonight Leicester Citx's
:17:17. > :17:20.promotion party didn't exactly go to plan. A 4`1 defeat to Brighton not
:17:21. > :17:22.what anyone was expecting. Lanager Nigel Pearson says they'll lake sure
:17:23. > :17:26.their remaining performances are right in their push for the title.
:17:27. > :17:33.Kirsty Edwards was at the Khng Power Stadium.
:17:34. > :17:42.The fans were ready for a promotion party. Brighton hadn't read the
:17:43. > :17:45.script. When you go into a game and you want to celebrate, you have got
:17:46. > :17:49.to celebrate with a perform`nce first and foremost and that's what
:17:50. > :17:53.we have done all season. Tonight, we didn't get it.
:17:54. > :17:59.It is in. Leicester City ard up against it.
:18:00. > :18:04.If you are going to come back down, you come back with a massivd bump
:18:05. > :18:09.and we did tonight. It is into the Leicester box. It is
:18:10. > :18:13.2`0. Well, someone didn't rdad the invite to this party. That's not the
:18:14. > :18:25.way the celebrations were stpposed to take place! It is mistakd after
:18:26. > :18:32.mistake after mistake. One or two players may have burbt the candle ``
:18:33. > :18:37.burnt the candle at both ends, I don't know. Oh dear, oh dear. This
:18:38. > :18:42.wasn't meant to happen. That's football. Football has a grdat way
:18:43. > :18:45.of levelling one's ego if you have got one. The players tonight were a
:18:46. > :18:50.little bit shell`shocked by what happened.
:18:51. > :18:54.Despite the scoreline, the fans did their best to stay upbeat and
:18:55. > :19:03.finally, they got something to really cheer about.
:19:04. > :19:06.Leicester 1, Brighton 4. Let's not underestimate what we have `chieved
:19:07. > :19:10.so far. We have gained promotion with six games to go. Tonight has
:19:11. > :19:14.not been a very good night for us, but we'll get back to work `nd make
:19:15. > :19:21.sure our performances are rhght from here on in.
:19:22. > :19:30.Five games to go, Leicester are still in the chase for the title.
:19:31. > :19:34.S So not the best night but overall what a season so far and yot can see
:19:35. > :19:38.a ten minute film on the schence of City's success on the BBC sport
:19:39. > :19:42.website. Onto Derby and Fordst. Today the Rams recalled strhker
:19:43. > :19:44.Mason Bennett from his loan spell at Chesterfield. Last night Derby
:19:45. > :19:58.demolished Blackpool to go back up to third. Meanwhile Forest drew 3`3
:19:59. > :20:02.at home to Sheffield Wednesday. What a night, the referee blew the
:20:03. > :20:09.whistle and some of the fans were still getting into their se`ts when
:20:10. > :20:16.seconds in, Blackpool took the lead. But the scam Rams didn't drop and
:20:17. > :20:22.Chris Martin scored his 20th goal of the campaign. He has become the
:20:23. > :20:28.first player to get 20 goals in the season for the Rams since Ddan
:20:29. > :20:34.Sturridge 18 years ago. Bryson was on hand to help with the
:20:35. > :20:40.second before scoring himself. Derby are flying in third spot in the
:20:41. > :20:45.championship. Nottingham Forest haven't won in 11
:20:46. > :20:50.games. They were 1`0 when the half working Jamie Mackie pulled one
:20:51. > :21:02.back. Within an hour, they were 3`1 down. They had it all to do, but
:21:03. > :21:08.they started the comeback. Dven though Danny Collins was sent off,
:21:09. > :21:16.Jamie Patterson earned Forest a point. The Reds are tenth in the
:21:17. > :21:18.championship with five games to go. Cricket and Nottinghamshire have
:21:19. > :21:21.made a winning start to thehr County Championship season, beating
:21:22. > :21:24.Lancashire by 45 runs. Therd's more good news because Australian star
:21:25. > :21:27.Peter Siddle will make his debut in the next match. Jeremy Nicholas
:21:28. > :21:35.reports. A beautiful sunny start herd at
:21:36. > :21:39.Trent Bridge. Nottinghamshire are hoping this could be the se`son that
:21:40. > :21:43.they win the county championship. At the start of any season, when you
:21:44. > :21:46.play for a county like Nottinghamshire, you want to win all
:21:47. > :21:51.three trophies and that's what we will be starting out to do. But this
:21:52. > :21:57.first month is all about crhcket. I think we can achieve it all. It
:21:58. > :22:00.would be nice to get over the T 0 hurdle if we can and championship,
:22:01. > :22:03.we have got a few good signhngs and it could be easier to get the 2
:22:04. > :22:08.wickets we struggled to get last year. In the changing room, there is
:22:09. > :22:13.a lot of experience. A lot of young kids coming through. If we put it
:22:14. > :22:16.together, we should be at the top challenging. One man wearing the
:22:17. > :22:20.Nottinghamshire whites is Pdter Siddle and the coloured kits are
:22:21. > :22:28.perfect for an Aussie, yellow and green, the big name signing is in
:22:29. > :22:31.Notts before being tied up. Siddle should about been leading the
:22:32. > :22:36.bowling attack in this game, but visa problems kept him in Atstralia
:22:37. > :22:40.and he is here now. Bringing someone of international class like Peter
:22:41. > :22:45.Siddle provides us with mothvation and every time we walk`out there, to
:22:46. > :22:50.bowl to the best of our ability we want to stay in the team. L`st year,
:22:51. > :22:54.we didn't take 20 wickets often We felt we needed to strengthen that
:22:55. > :23:00.department. We think we've done that with a world`class bowler. Peter
:23:01. > :23:01.Siddle has three days beford his debut against Middlesex and he will
:23:02. > :23:17.be on our programme tomorrow night. A sunny day at the cricket. The
:23:18. > :23:20.weather soon with Anna. From Star Wars to Harry Potter, the
:23:21. > :23:26.actor Warwick Davis has madd a name for himself on`screen. But now he
:23:27. > :23:29.has taken to the stage in a play at Derby Theatre. It's the first show
:23:30. > :23:32.to be performed by the Reduced Height Theatre Company, set`up by
:23:33. > :23:36.Warwick to give shorter actors more opportunities. Here's our arts
:23:37. > :23:45.reporter, Geeta Pendse. You are an imposter. I beg your pardon. Who are
:23:46. > :23:54.you? I am the Bishop of Lax. The actor Warwick Davis whose the
:23:55. > :23:58.wartime farce See How They Run for the Reduced Height Theatre Company.
:23:59. > :24:02.He got his break at the age of 1 playing in Star Wars. He wants to
:24:03. > :24:05.give other shorter actors more opportunities.
:24:06. > :24:09.Give them a platform, a levdl playing field that celebratds them
:24:10. > :24:13.as actors and that's why I have reduced the scale of the set
:24:14. > :24:18.slightly as well so you comd into the theatre and you see the play and
:24:19. > :24:22.you are treated to an illushon at the same time that you totally
:24:23. > :24:27.forget that we're short. I wonder if you could maybe give me
:24:28. > :24:34.say five grand just to live on? Treat it like a charity don`tion. It
:24:35. > :24:39.is not the first time he toxed with audience's perceptions, Lifd Is Too
:24:40. > :24:44.Short followed a fictional version of Warwick. It held a mirror up to
:24:45. > :24:47.society of the a lot of things happened to the Warwick Davhs
:24:48. > :24:51.character have happened to le in real life and Ricky Gervais and
:24:52. > :24:58.Stephen Merchant took those moments and spun them up into a comhc scene.
:24:59. > :25:05.Warwick Davis of Life's Too Short isn't you, but what's it like for
:25:06. > :25:10.you when you are out and about? Whenever I'm Christmas shopping she
:25:11. > :25:17.can trace her presents on Twitter because people have taken a picture
:25:18. > :25:21.of every shop I have been in. See How They Run is on at derby Theatre
:25:22. > :25:23.until Saturday. Warwick hopds it is the first of many productions for
:25:24. > :25:42.the company. We must congratulate the whole of

:25:52. > :25:55.the title. Her success follows Sam Bailey who won The X Factor and
:25:56. > :26:03.Frances Quinn who won the Great British Bake Off. A county of
:26:04. > :26:07.winners. Will it be wet or watery? Not really, Dominic. Look at this
:26:08. > :26:11.beautiful picture, thank yot, Jill for sending it in. Overnight
:26:12. > :26:15.tonight, it looks like it whll be dry and there will be clear skies.
:26:16. > :26:19.The cloud increased through the afternoon, but it has been breaking
:26:20. > :26:22.up to give us lovely evening sunshine and we will see more in the
:26:23. > :26:27.way of clear skies for a tile. That is going to allow the temperatures
:26:28. > :26:31.to drop, but we are looking at lows of six Celsius tonight. It should be
:26:32. > :26:35.frost`free. As we go into Thursday morning, we start to see more in the
:26:36. > :26:39.way of cloud as we go through the morning. It will break at thmes to
:26:40. > :26:44.give bright or sunny interv`ls. One or two showers around, but on the
:26:45. > :26:47.whole, a dry day to be had. Temperatures not bad, out in the
:26:48. > :26:50.sunshine, we are looking at highs of 14 Celsius. You might just start to
:26:51. > :26:54.see the cloud and the rain creeping in here to the north`west and this
:26:55. > :26:59.is a weather front that's going to move its way south through Thursday
:27:00. > :27:04.night. It will give us light, patchy rain. Nothing too significant. Once
:27:05. > :27:08.it clears, the skies clear behind it and we are in for a really lovely
:27:09. > :27:11.day. The high pressure is btilding behind me here and that's going to
:27:12. > :27:14.keep us settled through the day on Friday with sunny spells and
:27:15. > :27:18.temperatures, not as nice as today, we are looking at highs of 01
:27:19. > :27:24.Celsius, but feeling pleasant. The good news is if you are enjoying the
:27:25. > :27:29.settled weather, it stays dry throughout the weekend, but I can't
:27:30. > :27:35.promise you wall to wall sunshine. You can't promise us wall to wall
:27:36. > :27:38.sunshine? We will get somebody who will.
:27:39. > :27:40.We will send out for somebody who will.
