:00:00. > :00:10.This is East Midlands Today. continues. The dream shall never

:00:11. > :00:21.Tonight, could the Scottish No vote change our political landsc`pe?

:00:22. > :00:34.Is it time for English citids like Leicester to have more powers?

:00:35. > :00:45.The new breathalyser which xou take before driving.

:00:46. > :00:46.And one of the country's oldest police dogs is retiring aftdr more

:00:47. > :00:57.than ten years work. First tonight,

:00:58. > :01:01.after the big referendum decision north of the border, there have been

:01:02. > :01:04.calls today for a touch The Prime Minister has alre`dy

:01:05. > :01:09.hinted at more powers And Leicester's City Mayor has

:01:10. > :01:16.pitched in, Our Political Editor has bedn to

:01:17. > :01:21.Leicester to gauge reaction to the referendum vote that's kept

:01:22. > :01:34.Scotland in the United Kingdom. Even the weather and Leicester felt

:01:35. > :01:37.Scottish today. For many, working out referendum repercussions for

:01:38. > :01:45.cities like Leicester made heavy weather indeed. Does England lose

:01:46. > :01:50.out in all this? It may well do We will be worse off. They havd their

:01:51. > :01:54.parliament and we don't. It's not fair, but life isn't fair. @ny

:01:55. > :02:04.powers given to other cities is good. Hopefully other cities will be

:02:05. > :02:10.able to progress from that. The Prime Minister hinted at devolution

:02:11. > :02:15.for English cities. We will see more about empowering our cities in the

:02:16. > :02:21.coming days. What should be on offer? I believe that in Brhtain we

:02:22. > :02:25.should have the same range of powers to raise revenues that our

:02:26. > :02:30.continental cousins and American friends have. That I think would

:02:31. > :02:39.enable us to really empower local democracy. But it will be up to

:02:40. > :02:42.English MPs to shape those powers. I have views about more powers for

:02:43. > :02:47.Leicester, Nottingham, Derbx and county councils, but we really have

:02:48. > :02:53.to listen to what people in the East Midlands won't. I have an open mind.

:02:54. > :03:00.I am concerned about the practicalities, when cities like

:03:01. > :03:16.Nottingham have 1`party states. I don't believe they are incltsive.

:03:17. > :03:23.Even before the political dtst from all of this has settled, thd debate

:03:24. > :03:25.over the extent of devolution for English cities has already begun.

:03:26. > :03:29.So when will we get the det`ils of the Prime Minister's plans

:03:30. > :03:41.I think this is the big unknown this evening. The Prime Minister has

:03:42. > :03:46.spoken of some changes to Parliament. This whole issud of

:03:47. > :03:52.English votes for English l`ws. That is designed to keep the Torx MPs on

:03:53. > :04:01.board. We haven't had any ddtails in terms of what he is talking about. I

:04:02. > :04:04.suspect that David Cameron's policy team are working at fleshing out

:04:05. > :04:09.these policy issues this wedkend. It wouldn't surprise me if we start to

:04:10. > :04:13.get a formal announcement when the Conservatives gather in Birlingham

:04:14. > :04:16.for their annual conference in a weeks time. Birmingham in a way

:04:17. > :04:22.would be the perfect location to make such an announcement about more

:04:23. > :04:25.powers for English cities. This is kind of unchartered territory. Is

:04:26. > :04:34.there any consensus across the parties? Labour have signed up to

:04:35. > :04:42.the English cities, but I think the consensus is starting to brdak down

:04:43. > :04:51.for English votes for English law. Labour fear that would mean a Tory

:04:52. > :05:06.majority in the House of Colmons. Graham Allen, the MP, has floated

:05:07. > :05:11.the idea for constitutional reform from a Labour point of view. I think

:05:12. > :05:13.there will be more to come hn the party conferences.

:05:14. > :05:16.Well, to coin a Scottish phrase it has been a bit dreich today.

:05:17. > :05:19.Are things going to improve for the weekend?

:05:20. > :05:29.All change for this weekend. We gradually lose the Mark. By Sunday,

:05:30. > :05:32.it will feel like autumn has arrived.

:05:33. > :05:34.If you are heading into Loughborough tonight for a drink,

:05:35. > :05:36.you may be breathalysed before being allowed into certain bars.

:05:37. > :05:39.It is to help bouncers gaugd how much alcohol people havd

:05:40. > :05:49.The trial is backed by Leicestershire Police and runs

:05:50. > :05:54.To find out more we can cross live now to our reporter who is hn one

:05:55. > :06:06.Yes, good evening to you both. As you can see, I am on the water

:06:07. > :06:13.because I am working. Come later on, plenty of people in Loughborough

:06:14. > :06:16.will have had too much to drink and frankly causing harm to thelselves

:06:17. > :06:20.or even other people. But if they are wrote in Loughborough tonight,

:06:21. > :06:21.they might be asked to take a breathalyser tests so that bouncers

:06:22. > :06:32.can see whether they have already had too much. It is being rtn in

:06:33. > :06:39.five bars. Tell us exactly how this test will work. We have givdn the

:06:40. > :06:43.devices to five venues in Loughborough. Door staff will be in

:06:44. > :06:46.charge and they will do thehr normal job. They already make decisions

:06:47. > :06:51.about whether is someone is suitable to come into the venue. This device

:06:52. > :06:58.will give them more information to help them make their decision. There

:06:59. > :07:02.is no definition as to what to drunk is. You and I could have thd same

:07:03. > :07:07.amount of alcohol and be at different levels. This is a

:07:08. > :07:17.screening device which will act as a guide. They will be told thd drink

:07:18. > :07:22.drive limit. In a previous study, they found that twice the drink

:07:23. > :07:29.drive limit was about reasonable in terms of where to cut off the amount

:07:30. > :07:32.people could have before coling in. We have reduced alcohol`rel`ted

:07:33. > :07:37.crime in Loughborough, but we want to build on that. We are trxing this

:07:38. > :07:44.out as a new idea. Will you be turfing very drunk people ott onto

:07:45. > :07:48.the streets? I don't anticipate there will be any more from people

:07:49. > :08:01.on the streets and I don't suppose many more people will be turned

:08:02. > :08:03.away. We will be filming thhs evening and will have a full report

:08:04. > :08:06.on Monday. A Leicester teenager has bedn found

:08:07. > :08:08.guilty of killing his eight`year`old The accident happened on Gipsy Lane

:08:09. > :08:12.in Leicester in July 2012. Abhay Jadeja had been travelling

:08:13. > :08:15.in the boot of the car. His brother, Chirag Jadeja, who was

:08:16. > :08:20.16 at the time, has been fotnd guilty of three offences, including

:08:21. > :08:23.death by dangerous driving. He will be sentenced at

:08:24. > :08:27.Birmingham Crown Court next month. Muslims

:08:28. > :08:30.in Leicester have come together for a national day of prayer

:08:31. > :08:33.for victims of the Islamic State. They gathered this afternoon

:08:34. > :08:38.at the city's Central Mosqud to pray for the safety of all volunteers

:08:39. > :08:40.and charity workers, includhng They also remembered the murdered

:08:41. > :08:56.aid worker, David Haines. We would like to offer our tnanimous

:08:57. > :09:03.condemnation for this act of absolute evil, terrorism. It is

:09:04. > :09:08.disgraceful and ugly. And it is not an act of Islam. It is indedd an act

:09:09. > :09:14.of the devil. Asian children with asthma `re five

:09:15. > :09:17.times more likely to end up in accident and emergency than

:09:18. > :09:19.white children according to A big study in the city involving

:09:20. > :09:28.De Montfort and Leicester Universities found the NHS

:09:29. > :09:44.is sometimes failing to meet This baby had asthma. There were

:09:45. > :09:54.delays diagnosing and. Last weekend, he went off to university. But his

:09:55. > :10:00.family are concerned others in the Asian community are not accdpting

:10:01. > :10:04.help. Sadly there is still ` stigma. This is seen as something ndgative

:10:05. > :10:12.and you should not make people aware of asthma. People are not always

:10:13. > :10:26.able to react because of a lack of knowledge. The study found @sian

:10:27. > :10:33.children were more likely to end up in accident and emergency bdcause of

:10:34. > :10:36.asthma. Children are sitting silently and suffering. We need to

:10:37. > :10:41.help those children and makd their lives better. If your child is

:10:42. > :10:45.having lots of night`time coughs, wheezing or finding it diffhcult to

:10:46. > :10:56.breathe, please take them to the doctor. This expert says thd

:10:57. > :11:02.investigation is a wake`up call We need to diagnose asthma sooner. We

:11:03. > :11:05.need to look at how we manage these patients. With the right trdatment,

:11:06. > :11:10.most asthma deaths are prevdntable. Volunteers who were told to stop

:11:11. > :11:12.picking up litter until they had been given training

:11:13. > :11:20.have handed back their equipment to But the group from Normanton

:11:21. > :11:24.in Derby say they are now rdsuming their clear`up thanks to sponsorship

:11:25. > :11:33.from local landlords. They are used to backing up rubbish,

:11:34. > :11:37.but today they bagged up thdir litter pickers. They had bedn

:11:38. > :11:42.provided by the City Council, which then decided the volunteers needed

:11:43. > :11:52.training. Instead, they havd taken them back to the cancel. Yot would

:11:53. > :11:57.believe this is an April fool. But we have moved on. The reason we

:11:58. > :12:03.could not embark on the trahning is because we want other peopld to join

:12:04. > :12:13.us every week. The story made the national papers. The council said it

:12:14. > :12:17.was a health and is a issue. The Health and Safety Executive have

:12:18. > :12:24.said the action from the cancel was disproportionate. At the volunteers

:12:25. > :12:30.have said they will carry on using equipment donated by local

:12:31. > :12:36.landlords. I donated the high visibility jackets to support this

:12:37. > :12:44.campaign. I often find rubbhsh piled up outside my properties. What

:12:45. > :12:49.training do they really need to This is spreading across our city.

:12:50. > :12:54.Without volunteers helping, this will get worse. The council says it

:12:55. > :13:07.has a duty of care to anyond carrying out work on its behalf

:13:08. > :13:12.Still to come, memories of Brian Clough who died ten years ago

:13:13. > :13:16.today. He took Forest and Ddrby to the glory and transformed the role

:13:17. > :13:18.of the football manager. Tonight, we will hear from the fans who adored

:13:19. > :13:22.him. The parents of the only identical

:13:23. > :13:25.twins to be diagnosed with Battens Disease have become the first to

:13:26. > :13:28.commission research to find a cure. Andrew Dawkins and Sarah Finney have

:13:29. > :13:50.raised nearly ?40,000 to pax for These nine`year`old twins h`ve

:13:51. > :14:00.Battens Disease. It is one of the rarest forms of the disease, known

:14:01. > :14:07.as C L five. They were registered blind at the age of three. But

:14:08. > :14:12.Battens Disease is a life debilitating illness. It is not

:14:13. > :14:23.good. At present, there is no cure. The parents have raised mondy for

:14:24. > :14:30.research. Money is holding back the research. But we are fighting back.

:14:31. > :14:36.We are making a difference for our children and all other children who

:14:37. > :14:42.have Battens Disease. Andrew ran the London Marathon in April. Hd is

:14:43. > :14:48.currently training for the Robin Hood half marathon. We have had cake

:14:49. > :14:53.sales. A lady had her head shaved. You name it, we have done it. The

:14:54. > :15:01.local community has been fantastic. More than we could dream of. It is

:15:02. > :15:18.just amazing. The twins are the face of the campaign to battle B`ttens

:15:19. > :15:19.Disease. Their parents hope that there will be more research carried

:15:20. > :15:24.out in December. A village in Derbyshire tod`y

:15:25. > :15:26.re`dedicated its Great War Lemorial Cross as an act of commemor`tion to

:15:27. > :15:29.the men who volunteered to fight Barrow`upon`Trent was dubbed the

:15:30. > :15:32.most patriotic village in England due to the high proportion of men

:15:33. > :15:35.who served in the First World War. Today, thousands of people got

:15:36. > :15:38.the chance to learn more about World War One with a giant family

:15:39. > :15:41.friendly roadshow in Nottingham The BBC's World War One at Home

:15:42. > :15:44.event shows how the conflict touched In one tent, a rather gruesome

:15:45. > :15:48.demonstration of the rudimentary person to person blood transfusions

:15:49. > :15:50.carried out on the battlefidld. There was a demonstration too

:15:51. > :15:53.of how pigeons were used to send And there's a recruiting st`tion

:15:54. > :15:57.where you can get your own The event in Nottingham's Old

:15:58. > :16:03.Market Square continues tomorrow. I have the evidence here. I would

:16:04. > :16:03.say you looked even younger when you are older!

:16:04. > :16:06.And if you can't get to Nottingham tomorrow you can catch up whth

:16:07. > :16:08.the roadshow at BBC Radio Derby's Derbyshird Day

:16:09. > :16:19.Tributes to Brian Clough and some stories from one

:16:20. > :16:29.But we start with the unquestioned big game of the weekend.

:16:30. > :16:31.Leicester City playing host to Manchester United.

:16:32. > :16:34.Of course, the game is a total sell`out and Angela has been

:16:35. > :16:56.Last season, the foxes under fans could only dream of games lhke this.

:16:57. > :17:06.This is underground. We cannot wait. Really looking forward to Stnday.

:17:07. > :17:11.Lee Miller has been at Leicdster as man and wife. He believes they have

:17:12. > :17:24.earned their place in the elite of football. I personally chosd the

:17:25. > :17:31.team that I saw on television when I was younger. It is a big occasion.

:17:32. > :17:36.Money is no object for Manchester United. ?150 million spent the

:17:37. > :17:53.summer, almost 60 million on one player alone. But the foxes say they

:17:54. > :17:59.are in the Premier League so they need to be successful this season.

:18:00. > :18:09.They are a good team. We will respect them. But it is all about

:18:10. > :18:16.what we can do on the day. Hf we produce what we can produce, we will

:18:17. > :18:22.cause them problems. Leicester can more than cut it in the top flight.

:18:23. > :18:25.Vote in the brave. These pl`yers are more than ready.

:18:26. > :18:28.Ten years ago today, we all lost a very special football man.

:18:29. > :18:31.Brian Clough took not one, but two, unfashionable clubs to leagte

:18:32. > :18:40.He transformed what it meant to be a football club manager.

:18:41. > :18:53.This evening, it is the turn of the people of Derby and Forest.

:18:54. > :19:06.The man was a legend, an absolute genius. Brian Clough was thd

:19:07. > :19:09.greatest manager in the world. They thought I was going to take over the

:19:10. > :19:16.football Association if I h`d got the job. And they were right!

:19:17. > :19:26.Tremendous man. Has done a lot for this club and others. A gre`t man.

:19:27. > :19:33.To win the title at both cltbs is unbelievable. It will never be

:19:34. > :19:37.repeated. He got the best ott of people. Even though he was really

:19:38. > :19:47.harsh with them, he brought the best out of them. Get in there! That is

:19:48. > :20:01.what I pay you for! He is everything to me. In other words, I love

:20:02. > :20:10.you... The whole package th`t Ryan Clough is and was, we are vdry

:20:11. > :20:19.fortunate to touch these football clubs. There will never ever be

:20:20. > :20:25.anyone like him. He lives on forever in peoples memories. He will never

:20:26. > :20:35.be forgotten. Football is on the game. It is a game to be pl`yed

:20:36. > :20:48.enjoyed and one. Still my hdart with song... Android by John McGovern.

:20:49. > :20:59.Did you know you were dealing with someone who is going to be regarded

:21:00. > :21:08.in this way so far on? They frighten beta deaths at first. `` he

:21:09. > :21:13.frightened me to death at fhrst As far as the footballers are

:21:14. > :21:18.concerned, he told as things that were common sense. It is a simple

:21:19. > :21:23.game and as long as you didn't complicated and had some abhlity,

:21:24. > :21:36.you would do well. That was true for me and lots of players. If H had not

:21:37. > :21:42.been successful, there would been something wrong with me. I this year

:21:43. > :21:54.bash I was one of the youngdst players in the side bash.

:21:55. > :22:11.There was some talented plaxers in the side. He made me captain. He

:22:12. > :22:17.knew that I had taken heed of the lessons he had given me in how to

:22:18. > :22:24.play football. At Derby County, I started as a wide player. Eventually

:22:25. > :22:29.I came to play in central mhdfield which suited my ability to pass the

:22:30. > :22:33.ball with both feet. What w`s the one thing he told you that xou will

:22:34. > :22:38.never forget? He top me a ldsson when I was 15 about passing the

:22:39. > :22:48.ball. He gave me a lesson s`ying, you know, it is easy to run without

:22:49. > :22:52.the ball so why don't you try passing it? That stood me in good

:22:53. > :22:59.stead. You can see And you can see people paying

:23:00. > :23:02.their tributes to Brian Clotgh Well, Clough's old teams ard both

:23:03. > :23:06.in action tomorrow with Derby hosting Cardiff and table toppers

:23:07. > :23:08.Forest heading to Millwall. In League One, Oldham are

:23:09. > :23:10.the visitors to Notts Countx. Plus the Notts County Ladies host

:23:11. > :23:12.Chelsea tomorrow evening While in League Two,

:23:13. > :23:15.Mansfield welcome Carlisle. As ever, the very best coverage is

:23:16. > :23:19.on your BBC Local Radio station It is the next best thing to being

:23:20. > :23:21.there. Catch up with all the games here

:23:22. > :23:24.on Monday. In rugby,

:23:25. > :23:26.Leicester Tigers are off to Bath. We heard how much Freddie Btrns is

:23:27. > :23:28.looking forward to it yesterday The Tigers wanting to make

:23:29. > :23:31.it three wins from three. In ice hockey, it is Nottingham

:23:32. > :23:35.Panthers' first crack of thd season That's at home tomorrow

:23:36. > :23:38.in the Challenge Cup. In cricket,

:23:39. > :23:41.a massive well done from all of us It is a county in turmoil btt the

:23:42. > :23:47.boys have managed to win thd treble. One of the East Midlands top

:23:48. > :24:01.crime fighters retired todax. Bodie the Belgian Shepherd has been

:24:02. > :24:03.with Leicestershire Police That makes him one of the longest

:24:04. > :24:08.serving police dogs in the TK. Today,

:24:09. > :24:09.Bodie and his handler were `warded a Chief Superintendents Commendation

:24:10. > :24:19.for their outstanding work. Music.

:24:20. > :24:40.Theme from shaft. Bodie has been involved in lore than

:24:41. > :24:50.200 arrests. They never cease to amaze me. I can't help but smile

:24:51. > :24:55.when I work with police dogs. Recently, Bodie dragged me through

:24:56. > :25:01.an extensive garden to assist someone who had Alzheimer's who did

:25:02. > :25:08.not know where he was or who he was. How the dog phoned him, I don't

:25:09. > :25:15.know. It is things like that. Without a police dog, we probably

:25:16. > :25:22.would never have found him. He has an outstanding service record. He

:25:23. > :25:29.has never been ill for the community love the police dogs. They `ttract

:25:30. > :25:39.attention, provide reassurance and they can do certain things that some

:25:40. > :25:45.people can't do. Police dogs usually retire at the age of nine, but Bodie

:25:46. > :25:53.was so good that he went on until he was aged 12. He is now lookhng

:25:54. > :26:04.forward to putting all his feet up and resting.

:26:05. > :26:16.He looks sweet, but I'm surd he was very intimidating for burgl`rs!

:26:17. > :26:20.It is another day of cloud `nd missed on Saturday. There whll also

:26:21. > :26:25.be some showers around, potdntially quite heavy. An improvement from

:26:26. > :26:29.Sunday. Dry with lots of blte sky and sunshine. You will notice that

:26:30. > :26:34.change as it will feel cooldr and fresher. This evening and tomorrow

:26:35. > :26:39.morning, there is still the risk of some heavy and potentially thundery

:26:40. > :26:48.showers. Some of them will love towards us overnight. A lot of low

:26:49. > :27:00.cloud around. Some isolated showers pushing through. It is the last of

:27:01. > :27:08.the mild nights. 14 degrees. The show was clear way to the E`st

:27:09. > :27:15.tomorrow morning. This is how it will stage in the afternoon. It will

:27:16. > :27:18.eventually brighten up. A cold front row start to push away as wd go

:27:19. > :27:24.through the night on Saturd`y. Behind it, high pressure buhlds
