:00:12. > :00:14.Good evening. That's all from us.

:00:15. > :00:17.First tonight the amazing project made in Derby to

:00:18. > :00:21.A quarter of a million ceramic poppies have

:00:22. > :00:26.Almost 900,000 are being planted at the Tower of London,

:00:27. > :00:28.each one symbolising a fallen serviceman or woman.

:00:29. > :00:31.Today, the artist behind the project said he'd been

:00:32. > :00:51.A work of art, a memorial but also a fundraising effort. Pouring out of

:00:52. > :00:54.the tower of London, last week the first instalment of poppies were

:00:55. > :00:58.officially revealed to the public and put on sale. The hope is to

:00:59. > :01:03.raise millions of pounds for charity, but no one predicted just

:01:04. > :01:10.how quickly the poppies would sell. At a studio in Derby, the artist has

:01:11. > :01:15.been amazed at how the public have embraced the project. With 250,000

:01:16. > :01:18.poppies sold within seven days. It's quite a shock that so many people

:01:19. > :01:22.have got behind it. It's not a fun thing I have produced. It's

:01:23. > :01:26.something that has a meaning behind it. It has a really big meaning for

:01:27. > :01:31.lots of people. I am really happy that people are actually wanting

:01:32. > :01:37.them. Each poppy is sold for ?25 with a net proceeds split between

:01:38. > :01:43.six military charities. ?2. 50 from every poppy goes to charity. So if

:01:44. > :01:47.we sell all that's 2. ?2.2 million. If we sell all, all the Ned proceeds

:01:48. > :01:50.will go to charity. We are being coy about that because we are still

:01:51. > :01:53.making them, still building at the moment but that could be many

:01:54. > :01:57.millions of pounds by the time we are finished. The team in Derby

:01:58. > :02:00.continue to produce poppies around the clock. The last poppy will be

:02:01. > :02:05.planted on Remembrance Day. Next, how people here are helping

:02:06. > :02:08.victims of the conflict in Gaza. Hospitals

:02:09. > :02:10.in the East Midlands are collecting thousands of items of medical kit to

:02:11. > :02:13.send to the war`torn region. They're appealing for equipment

:02:14. > :02:15.the NHS says it no longer needs. The first consignment went out today

:02:16. > :02:18.from hospitals in Derby and Nottinghamshire, as our health

:02:19. > :02:31.correspondent Rob Sissons reports. This is like all the airways. You

:02:32. > :02:36.have the tubes in. They say it's kit the NHS no longer wants, but Gaza

:02:37. > :02:41.needs. We have seen it on the television with the children, with

:02:42. > :02:45.their eyes, I have found eye shields. At kings Mill they've

:02:46. > :02:49.collected hundreds of items in a couple of days. We are told it's

:02:50. > :02:55.things the NHS would either throw away, past the expiry date or use

:02:56. > :03:00.Father training. We are diligent in what we acquire and how we use it.

:03:01. > :03:05.It's only those stuff which have gone past the time or times opened

:03:06. > :03:10.up and not used during surgery. They hope this will save lives. I was

:03:11. > :03:14.really thinking we are not going to have that much but when I searched

:03:15. > :03:19.around we have expired things, things that reps have given us over

:03:20. > :03:23.the years and never used them. Nightly TV images of the devastation

:03:24. > :03:28.and injuries in Gaza prompted a surgeon in Derby to do something. He

:03:29. > :03:31.set about getting Derby hospitals to gather unwanted equipment and

:03:32. > :03:36.encouraged other hospitals like Kings Mill to get involved. This is

:03:37. > :03:39.not about politics at all. It's purely us as medical caring

:03:40. > :03:43.professionals with a duty of care trying to aleave ate the suffering

:03:44. > :03:48.of fellow `` alleviate the suffering of fellow human beings. Here, 35,000

:03:49. > :03:52.items collected are off on the first leg of the journey to Gaza. It's

:03:53. > :03:55.hoped international charities will get the aid through. And for the

:03:56. > :03:59.children, some toys. The parents of a Derbyshire medical

:04:00. > :04:02.student stabbed to death last week in Borneo have described him as

:04:03. > :04:05.caring, thoughtful and witty and say 22`year`old Neil Dalton from Belper

:04:06. > :04:11.was killed with a friend. Neil never thought twice

:04:12. > :04:17.about helping others. He achieved so much and made

:04:18. > :04:19.so many friends. Four men have been arrested

:04:20. > :04:22.for murder. Police in Borneo say

:04:23. > :04:27.the four have admitted the crime. Two men who killed an Iraqi refugee

:04:28. > :04:30.have been found guilty of murder. Patryk Strutkowski and

:04:31. > :04:32.Pawel Bugajski carried out the attack in the Meadows area

:04:33. > :04:36.of Nottingham in January. They used a belt to strangle

:04:37. > :04:39.56`year`old Hama Faraj Noori. Archaeologists working on a

:04:40. > :04:46."lost" medieval manor`house in Leicestershire say they've

:04:47. > :04:48.discovered further buildings The 12th century house

:04:49. > :04:57.in the village of Croxton Kerrial disappeared from maps by the 1800s,

:04:58. > :05:07.as Paul Bradshaw reports. This field in Leicestershire has

:05:08. > :05:15.been hiding a secret for more than 800 years. This is the complex.

:05:16. > :05:19.Basically, the Manor House here, beyond that we have the massive

:05:20. > :05:24.barn. Evidence of other buildings going around what we think was a

:05:25. > :05:27.cobbled yard. Again, dating from around the 12th century, we have

:05:28. > :05:30.evidence of that and wonderful pottery from that date. A group of

:05:31. > :05:36.amateur archaeologists have been digging this site since 2012 and

:05:37. > :05:43.have made some remarkable finds. This is the star find which has come

:05:44. > :05:47.out of the well. It's a late 12th century jug, and it's been down

:05:48. > :05:53.there for about 800 years at the bottom of the well. We were the

:05:54. > :06:00.first people to see it for about 8 hunsz years `` 800 years.

:06:01. > :06:04.With all the benefits of medieval mod`cons. The Lord would have had a

:06:05. > :06:08.private chamber at the top. This is a private toilet. Every new and

:06:09. > :06:12.again some peasant would have had to clear this out and spread it on the

:06:13. > :06:14.fields and use it for fertiliser. The dig will continue until next

:06:15. > :06:18.year. In the Capital One Cup it's

:06:19. > :06:23.finished Tranmere 0, Forest 1. Michail Antonio getting the goal

:06:24. > :06:25.for Forest after 11 minutes. And Sheffield Wednesday 3,

:06:26. > :06:37.Notts County 0. That's the news. But we need to know

:06:38. > :06:42.how the weather looks. I will leave you with Kaye.

:06:43. > :06:51.It's been a blustery day today. We are still being influenced by brisk

:06:52. > :06:55.westerly winds. Tomorrow we will get slow improvements through the day.

:06:56. > :06:57.The winds will be easing down and there will be fewer showers. So more

:06:58. > :07:03.in the way of sunshine. We have seen a few showers this

:07:04. > :07:07.evening. One or two will continue through the night. The majority

:07:08. > :07:13.fading through the early hours. It's generally dlie with clear ``

:07:14. > :07:16.generally dry with clear spells. Tomorrow morning there will be some

:07:17. > :07:20.showers around from the word go but they will be fewer and further

:07:21. > :07:25.between and they will be lighter, as well. In general, more sunshine into

:07:26. > :07:29.the afternoon. The winds slowly easing down, so feeling better.

:07:30. > :07:31.Highs of 19 or 20. That's it from us. I will leave you with the

:07:32. > :07:35.outlook. Matt is of a messy couple of days with some

:07:36. > :07:40.heavy rain and showers but here'sing Matt with the national weather.

:07:41. > :07:44.Good evening. Given the recent change in weather conditions I am

:07:45. > :07:48.esure a few of you have mentioned "autumn" who would blame new western

:07:49. > :07:52.Scotland today a mid-August day, driving wind, strong winds,

:07:53. > :07:56.temperatures at one po incompetent were just 13. A better day tomorrow,

:07:57. > :08:00.here, though. The cloud we have had today will work southwards. You will

:08:01. > :08:02.notice still unstable air across England and Wales. Lively

:08:03. > :08:06.thunderstorms through today. They are fading away by in large. One or

:08:07. > :08:10.two showers in the West but longer, clearer periods here. We still have

:08:11. > :08:13.that cloud, pushing through to the Scotland, Northern Ireland, north

:08:14. > :08:17.Wales and the north Midlands by the end of the night. But rather than

:08:18. > :08:18.persistent rain, away from the
