A couple describe their terrifying earthquake ordeal.

:00:00.:00:13.

Their house in Italy was buried in snow and then the tremors hit. Our

:00:14.:00:24.

family pet got killed. Animals got killed. Also tonight, more NHS

:00:25.:00:33.

services are offered at home and paste into question whether they

:00:34.:00:38.

will get the same pain treatment. You need qualified staff. How can

:00:39.:00:41.

you set up a mini theatre in the home. Plus, the battle for this

:00:42.:00:51.

beauty spot. Could it chest to mean the end of views like this. And we

:00:52.:00:57.

are going to go back in time to find out about the buildings of

:00:58.:00:58.

Leicester's past. Good evening and welcome to Friday's

:00:59.:01:03.

programme with Anne Davies First tonight, a couple from Derby

:01:04.:01:06.

say they've lost everything after their home in Italy

:01:07.:01:12.

was buried snow. Peter Fletcher and his partner Clair

:01:13.:01:17.

passed a terrifying few days in the recent heavy snowfalls

:01:18.:01:19.

and earthquakes that convulsed They were living close to the hotel

:01:20.:01:21.

that was buried in an avalanche Trapped for four days as the snow

:01:22.:01:41.

slowly buried their home, Claire and Peter were meant to be starting a

:01:42.:01:45.

new life when they move to Italy, but as the weather got worst their

:01:46.:01:52.

dream house became president, then the earthquake struck. We were

:01:53.:01:56.

petrified, that is probably an understatement. You have got no

:01:57.:02:01.

choice you have to go, you cannot stop. When it is chest height and

:02:02.:02:06.

falling to the snow you can't do it. If we got stuck on the drive no one

:02:07.:02:10.

would have known we were there. If we had made to the road no one would

:02:11.:02:14.

have known we were there. What you do when you're in that situation,

:02:15.:02:20.

where whatever way you tend that could be it? The couple and their

:02:21.:02:25.

13-year-old son were caught in the extreme weather that has devastated

:02:26.:02:28.

the region. A few miles away from their village rescuers have been

:02:29.:02:34.

pulling bodies out as the F quick cause an avalanche. -- as the

:02:35.:02:41.

earthquake caused an avalanche. They know they are lucky to be alive.

:02:42.:02:47.

There were four inches of water in the bedroom coming from somewhere.

:02:48.:02:51.

That was the night before we left the house. Then, we walked up the

:02:52.:02:55.

drive and we saw that the chimney had fallen into the house. The

:02:56.:03:00.

earthquake 's, the water that came from the melted snow. When they came

:03:01.:03:04.

to rescue us from the house they didn't come on the drive. They

:03:05.:03:08.

couldn't get down the drive. We literally had to make our way to the

:03:09.:03:14.

top of the drive. How did you do it? We crawled. Hands and need. We

:03:15.:03:20.

crawled. -- hands and knees. The family put their life savings into

:03:21.:03:26.

the move and I'm not holding out much hope after a traumatic

:03:27.:03:31.

experience. Our family pet got killed, we had animals that got

:03:32.:03:40.

killed. Everything we own is in that house in Italy, we came away in what

:03:41.:03:45.

we were standing up in. Now the family is living with relatives that

:03:46.:03:49.

they try to work out their next move, but they say after the events

:03:50.:03:53.

of the last few weeks they are reluctant to go back. We thought we

:03:54.:03:58.

had bought a piece of paradise and at that particular moment when the

:03:59.:04:01.

earthquake was shaking the house and renewed couldn't get out, that was

:04:02.:04:03.

our worst nightmare. A woman's been found guilty

:04:04.:04:05.

of the manslaughter of her seven Chaunfang Zheng had been accused

:04:06.:04:09.

of violently shaking She died in hospital

:04:10.:04:12.

three days later. Our reporter Giles Taylor

:04:13.:04:15.

can tell us more. Well, the trial at Leicester's

:04:16.:04:25.

Crown Court followed a two year investigation

:04:26.:04:29.

by Leicestershire Police - to determine just what

:04:30.:04:30.

happened to Phoebe. It all took place on

:04:31.:04:32.

the 22nd of March 2015, at a flat on Linden

:04:33.:04:35.

Drive in Lutterworth. 31-year-old Chaunfang Zheng

:04:36.:04:40.

was babysitting 4 children, The baby fell unconscious, and died

:04:41.:04:42.

in hospital three days later. Leicester Crown Court was told

:04:43.:04:48.

the baby had suffered a catastrophic and fatal brain injury,

:04:49.:04:51.

which could only have been But Zheng denied harming

:04:52.:04:53.

the baby, saying she treated her like her own child,

:04:54.:04:56.

and even tried to resuscitate her. The jury wasn't convinced,

:04:57.:05:02.

and following almost a week of deliberations this morning

:05:03.:05:04.

they unanimously found Today the NSPCC has described

:05:05.:05:06.

the incident as a horrific attack on a defenceless child by someone

:05:07.:05:14.

trusted to look after her. Zheng has been remanded

:05:15.:05:18.

in custody, and will be back in court next month

:05:19.:05:20.

when the judge has warned she is likely to face a long

:05:21.:05:23.

custodial sentence. If you love football, I think you

:05:24.:05:37.

will love this. There's a fantastic FA Cup tie

:05:38.:05:41.

coming up, and Colin's It has a little bit of everything.

:05:42.:05:53.

It is an all East Midlands clash. It is at night, under the lights and

:05:54.:05:58.

there is a chance of an upset. We will build up to it in full, later

:05:59.:06:00.

on. Patients in Nottingham say

:06:01.:06:04.

they're worried about plans to close their specialist pain

:06:05.:06:09.

clinic, under proposals to move more NHS services

:06:10.:06:10.

into the community. Is it about better care or saving

:06:11.:06:17.

cash? it's no secret they need

:06:18.:06:19.

to save money and several hospital-based services

:06:20.:06:23.

are being reviewed. But some pain sufferers fear a worse

:06:24.:06:25.

service if those changes happen. Our Health Correspondent

:06:26.:06:30.

Rob Sissons has more. This woman suffers chronic pain

:06:31.:06:47.

after a road accident. She fears the move will wreck a brilliant service.

:06:48.:06:53.

They aren't my lifeline, I'm sincere in this, I would become a permanent

:06:54.:07:03.

will check user. She fears something special will be lost. We still don't

:07:04.:07:10.

know what causes it. This team has got the skills comic years of

:07:11.:07:16.

experience... Tablets don't really torch Caroline's upper back pain but

:07:17.:07:22.

she says group sessions at Nottingham City Hospital helps and

:07:23.:07:27.

is worried about the service changing, as well. I think we are in

:07:28.:07:31.

danger of knowing the cost of everything and the value of nothing.

:07:32.:07:38.

Having honed this specialist programme, I don't see how any other

:07:39.:07:44.

organisation could deliver it with the same ability and cost

:07:45.:07:47.

effectiveness and with the trained professionals that are in the NHS.

:07:48.:07:50.

The NHS managers who hold those particular purse strings insist

:07:51.:07:52.

they can move the pain management service to places like GP

:07:53.:07:55.

surgeries without affecting the standard of care.

:07:56.:08:02.

The man known as the clinical lead at the clinical commissioning group

:08:03.:08:08.

told us the hospital was raising the cost of services like the pain

:08:09.:08:15.

clinic and it could not be afforded any more. I can't hide from the fact

:08:16.:08:20.

that price is part of this, it is important that we are aware we are

:08:21.:08:24.

working in a financially challenging environment. There is not enough

:08:25.:08:28.

money for us to carry on spending at the rate we're spending. You said

:08:29.:08:32.

the service might be cheaper, but how can it be better if that is so?

:08:33.:08:37.

The service could be better in lots of different ways, when we took

:08:38.:08:43.

about value, I include patient experience and the outcomes that

:08:44.:08:48.

patients can get a minute that patients' experiences better when

:08:49.:08:55.

these things are delivered in the community. Patients we have spoken

:08:56.:09:01.

to the it will be a worse service. I can understand that fear and I

:09:02.:09:06.

strongly believe that we can improve the service. We are expecting the

:09:07.:09:12.

same level of staff, consultants, and therapists to be involved. The

:09:13.:09:16.

main difference will be the geography about where it will be

:09:17.:09:17.

provided. A former clergyman who was the first

:09:18.:09:20.

in the Church of England to marry his same-sex partner

:09:21.:09:23.

is to lead a campaign of protest of protest to change church

:09:24.:09:26.

doctrine on marriage. Today, the Church of England

:09:27.:09:28.

published a report that underlined its concept of marriage

:09:29.:09:30.

as the union of one man and one Canon Jeremy Pemberton fought a long

:09:31.:09:35.

legal battle against the Church when he was refused a licence

:09:36.:09:42.

to practice as a hospital chaplain. A new report but not on newsstands,

:09:43.:09:53.

bishops say that marriage in the church should be between a man or

:09:54.:09:58.

woman. It is a conclusion that this man says is disappointing. There is

:09:59.:10:02.

a lovely bears in the Bible that says "God is love and those that

:10:03.:10:11.

live in love..." I think that is true for gay people as well as

:10:12.:10:15.

straight people. The report also suggests that anyone wanting to join

:10:16.:10:19.

the clergy whether straight or gay will be asked about their sexual

:10:20.:10:23.

conduct. This has been a controversial subject for the church

:10:24.:10:29.

was some this report represents two years worth of the ports on the

:10:30.:10:34.

subjects of human sexuality. Whether teaching when change it cause for a

:10:35.:10:39.

fresh tone and a culture of welcome and support for gay and lesbian

:10:40.:10:44.

people. The trouble is, they are still saying that they think of

:10:45.:10:48.

relationships are sinful and wrong and that we are second-class

:10:49.:10:58.

citizens. Our test is to uphold the gospel and the Scriptures and

:10:59.:11:01.

tradition as we have received it, but also to make certain that this

:11:02.:11:07.

is a church in which all lesbian and gay people who are made in the image

:11:08.:11:12.

and likeness of God like everyone else has a welcome place. I would be

:11:13.:11:18.

in favour of same-sex marriage honoured by the church, because as

:11:19.:11:23.

far as I'm concerned love is love. They should have their own Church if

:11:24.:11:29.

they want to change anything. I can't fault them for not wanting to

:11:30.:11:35.

change a tradition. In the past he has been refused to work as a

:11:36.:11:45.

hospital chaplain, he now works as a civil servant and chairs charity

:11:46.:11:49.

campaigning for a more inclusive Church. With the lesbian and Gay

:11:50.:11:54.

Christian movement he plans to campaign for change. I want to see

:11:55.:12:01.

the theology change, we had a theology 25 years ago that said that

:12:02.:12:04.

divorced people couldn't be remarried in the church and we

:12:05.:12:11.

changed it, you can do it. The report will be debated next month.

:12:12.:12:17.

A man has been arrested on suspicion of murder following the killing

:12:18.:12:19.

Aqib Mazhar was stabbed to death on Russell Road

:12:20.:12:23.

A 19-year-old is in custody, and is being held in

:12:24.:12:27.

Four men have already been sentenced for the manslaughter of Mr Mazhar.

:12:28.:12:34.

A Leicester MP is calling for European prisoners to be

:12:35.:12:36.

returned to their countries as soon as possible, before

:12:37.:12:39.

Labour's Keith Vaz was speaking at a debate

:12:40.:12:45.

in Westminster about how Brexit would affect law enforcement.

:12:46.:12:47.

He says there are more than 4,000 from the EU

:12:48.:12:49.

currently being held here, costing ?169 million a year.

:12:50.:12:55.

A Leicester man's been jailed for more than six and a half years

:12:56.:12:58.

for stealing a taxi at gunpoint, after threatening children

:12:59.:13:01.

32-year-old James Blockley used the fake gun last August

:13:02.:13:09.

to intimidate motorists on Groby Road - one of whom had

:13:10.:13:11.

He then robbed a taxi driver and stole his vehicle

:13:12.:13:15.

People living close to a popular beauty spot say it'll be ruined

:13:16.:13:30.

if a viaduct for HS2 is allowed to run through it.

:13:31.:13:33.

They've been expressing their concerns

:13:34.:13:34.

about the plans at a consultation event today.

:13:35.:13:36.

Campaigners say it will destroy the views around

:13:37.:13:38.

Stanton Gate in Derbyshire - and harm local wildlife.

:13:39.:13:40.

It is a view which has now been under threat. A proposed new 16

:13:41.:13:49.

metre high viaduct to be built as part of the HS to route will go

:13:50.:13:55.

through this green belt land. Campaigners say it will obstruct the

:13:56.:14:01.

view of this beauty spot and disrupt local wildlife I have travelled a

:14:02.:14:04.

lot round the world and I think these are some of the most beautiful

:14:05.:14:08.

views I have ever seen and I would hate them to be lost. This woman is

:14:09.:14:16.

leading the campaign against the plans. She is calling for it to be

:14:17.:14:21.

built on the other side of the canal, making used of the existing

:14:22.:14:28.

railway line. There is lost of existing track 's and we want to see

:14:29.:14:31.

that they can get in there. If it does end up being built on this land

:14:32.:14:36.

around us how you feel? I will be very disappointed. I think we will

:14:37.:14:42.

lose something you cannot replace. At this consultation event there was

:14:43.:14:47.

concern from other residents. Local people go there to enjoy the

:14:48.:14:52.

environment and it is destroying it. We believe that the current route is

:14:53.:14:57.

the right balance in terms of the impact on people and the

:14:58.:15:02.

environment. Is there any hope that the viaduct could be changed? We are

:15:03.:15:06.

not expecting at this stage to move it. We will always, as we go

:15:07.:15:13.

forward, seek to improve the design, if we can, but we don't expect at

:15:14.:15:17.

this stage to remove it because we think we have struck the right

:15:18.:15:23.

balance. I know that event will take place in Nuneaton will stop.

:15:24.:15:33.

Now, Vanished Leicester is an archive of more

:15:34.:15:35.

than a thousand photographs documenting the demolished

:15:36.:15:36.

All the photos have been taken by a man who is now 91. Along with the

:15:37.:15:49.

University of Leicester he is asking people to share their memories of

:15:50.:15:51.

place is gone, but not forgotten. When walking through the centre of

:15:52.:15:59.

Leicester most of us probably don't play much attention to the buildings

:16:00.:16:05.

around us. But, a photographic archive shows is what it was like.

:16:06.:16:10.

Why where many of the buildings knocked down during those decades?

:16:11.:16:18.

The Victorian housing where poor quality and were demolished in slum

:16:19.:16:22.

clearances. In the city centre it was to make way for, what we see

:16:23.:16:27.

behind us today, this shopping centre. The project, available on

:16:28.:16:38.

the University of Leicester website is called vanish Leicester. This

:16:39.:16:49.

hotel had been a landmark. This was controversial. It was an old

:16:50.:16:55.

coaching inn, used by generations of Leicester people and the writer Sue

:16:56.:16:59.

Townsend was livid when it came down, as were other people. We're

:17:00.:17:04.

hoping the photos of that will attract attention and some memories.

:17:05.:17:08.

This former architect took all of the photographs in the archive. He

:17:09.:17:14.

drew up in the west end area where his father had an off-licence shop.

:17:15.:17:23.

The beer came in drawn by horses. And they put at, I the pavement, and

:17:24.:17:30.

pushed the bowels off so they dropped on the mat. It struck me

:17:31.:17:34.

that somebody ought to record it record it. It wasn't of great

:17:35.:17:39.

interest then, they went interest in 19th-century stuff, but I was. I had

:17:40.:17:46.

developed an interest in it so I started. This treasure trove of

:17:47.:17:50.

architectural history will now be preserved ever. The University of

:17:51.:17:53.

Leicester would like people he knew the old buildings to add their

:17:54.:18:01.

memories to the archive. Some wonderful old memories of Leicester.

:18:02.:18:05.

They can all be found on the University of Leicester's website.

:18:06.:18:06.

Have a look. Time for sport now -

:18:07.:18:10.

and it's a big all East Midlands Yes - Colin's at Pride Park

:18:11.:18:13.

for the clash between Derby County Good evening. You can see your

:18:14.:18:21.

breath here and you can feel the buzz around the place because it is

:18:22.:18:27.

those two teams. The match of the Day live hammers are in place but a

:18:28.:18:34.

genuine local derby. -- match of the Day live cameras. It has a little

:18:35.:18:38.

bit of everything, the struggling champions of England come to the

:18:39.:18:44.

local rivals. It will have spice, passion and it is yet more evidence

:18:45.:18:48.

that the FA Cup is the heart of football. It's all about playing in

:18:49.:18:56.

FA Cup tie it doesn't get much bigger than this. You top in this

:18:57.:19:05.

competition? Yes, under percent. We must win tomorrow, that is it. Make

:19:06.:19:14.

it a special night. Pan on the floodlights, put it on BBC One after

:19:15.:19:19.

all a trophy with more history in it than ever. We love the FA Cup. They

:19:20.:19:25.

will be bringing 5000, the atmosphere will be brilliant. It is

:19:26.:19:30.

the FA Cup which is always special. Everybody wants to win it. It is

:19:31.:19:35.

everybody's dream. It doesn't matter where you come from in the world,

:19:36.:19:39.

you know it and you probably treasure it. We know our fans and

:19:40.:19:46.

the Derby fans expect a very good match tomorrow and we are ready.

:19:47.:19:52.

Players who have been well round the block find that the cup games bring

:19:53.:19:57.

out something extra in them, sporting brilliance. I always loved

:19:58.:20:05.

watching the FA Cup on the TV. For whatever reason why, I always to do

:20:06.:20:10.

well and it. It would be nice to be a court run all concerned. If we got

:20:11.:20:15.

a good draw it would be good for the team and the chance to green fans or

:20:16.:20:20.

those, find their selves making home debuts. It is the local derby, it is

:20:21.:20:30.

massive for the fans and the club to beat your local rivals, especially

:20:31.:20:34.

in the FA Cup which is such a prestigious tournament. Like the

:20:35.:20:40.

lights, fire up the cameras, this is what the club is all about. -- the

:20:41.:20:44.

cup is all about. More on the cup tie

:20:45.:20:50.

in a moment but we are here at Derby County of course -

:20:51.:20:53.

managed just a few years ago The big question tonight could he be

:20:54.:20:56.

the next Nottingham Forest boss? Forest have made an approach

:20:57.:21:04.

to his current club Clough today has spoken with

:21:05.:21:06.

the Burton chairman about it all - So how do the fans feel

:21:07.:21:11.

about the prospect of Clough coming I couldn't think of anybody better

:21:12.:21:20.

to come back. The club is in turmoil, it needs somebody that has

:21:21.:21:27.

got some ties with the club to come and do his stuff. If he is at

:21:28.:21:35.

quarter as successful as 's father was, he will do well. I am not too

:21:36.:21:40.

sure, but I will obviously give him a chance. I'm not a big fan of his,

:21:41.:21:46.

put it that way. As simple as that. COMMENTATOR: A brilliant save. I

:21:47.:21:52.

think it will put the owner in favour with the fans. I would like

:21:53.:21:57.

to think he would like to come. It would be hard for him to train

:21:58.:22:02.

emulators dad, but who knows. We need somebody. -- to try and emulate

:22:03.:22:09.

his dad. I am not happy, I'm not a big fan of Nigel, a all. You have to

:22:10.:22:14.

give them a chance, he has a big history with the club. I thought the

:22:15.:22:22.

world of his dad. Hopefully he would come and think about what his dad

:22:23.:22:26.

did. There might be too much of an expectation on because of his

:22:27.:22:32.

father. It is a cuddle grandad once. It will put a lot of pressure on

:22:33.:22:37.

him, but we do need a manager. We don't seem to be going anywhere. I

:22:38.:22:42.

think it could only be good for the club, really. There is league

:22:43.:22:46.

football this weekend, as well. The Magpies - against Crawley - find

:22:47.:22:49.

themselves in the relegation zone. The Stags, home to Leyton Orient

:22:50.:22:54.

are pushing for the play offs. In Rugby, Leicester Tigers Welford

:22:55.:22:57.

Road is all but sold out. And extraordinary thing to say

Maybe, Leicestershire and Derbyshire will see some brightness. Still the
