27/01/2017 East Midlands Today

A couple describe their terrifying earthquake ordeal.

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

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

services are offered at home and paste into question whether they

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

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

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

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

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

programme with Anne Davies First tonight, a couple from Derby

say they've lost everything after their home in Italy

was buried snow. Peter Fletcher and his partner Clair

passed a terrifying few days in the recent heavy snowfalls

and earthquakes that convulsed They were living close to the hotel

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

our worst nightmare. A woman's been found guilty

of the manslaughter of her seven Chaunfang Zheng had been accused

of violently shaking She died in hospital

three days later. Our reporter Giles Taylor

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

Crown Court followed a two year investigation

by Leicestershire Police - to determine just what

happened to Phoebe. It all took place on

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

Drive in Lutterworth. 31-year-old Chaunfang Zheng

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

in hospital three days later. Leicester Crown Court was told

the baby had suffered a catastrophic and fatal brain injury,

which could only have been But Zheng denied harming

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

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

and following almost a week of deliberations this morning

they unanimously found Today the NSPCC has described

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

trusted to look after her. Zheng has been remanded

in custody, and will be back in court next month

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

custodial sentence. If you love football, I think you

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

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

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

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

on. Patients in Nottingham say

they're worried about plans to close their specialist pain

clinic, under proposals to move more NHS services

into the community. Is it about better care or saving

cash? it's no secret they need

to save money and several hospital-based services

are being reviewed. But some pain sufferers fear a worse

service if those changes happen. Our Health Correspondent

Rob Sissons has more. This woman suffers chronic pain

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

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

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

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

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

she says group sessions at Nottingham City Hospital helps and

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

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

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

organisation could deliver it with the same ability and cost

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

The NHS managers who hold those particular purse strings insist

they can move the pain management service to places like GP

surgeries without affecting the standard of care.

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

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

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

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

working in a financially challenging environment. There is not enough

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

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

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

about value, I include patient experience and the outcomes that

patients can get a minute that patients' experiences better when

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

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

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

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

main difference will be the geography about where it will be

provided. A former clergyman who was the first

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

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

doctrine on marriage. Today, the Church of England

published a report that underlined its concept of marriage

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

legal battle against the Church when he was refused a licence

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

conduct. This has been a controversial subject for the church

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Aqib Mazhar was stabbed to death on Russell Road

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

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

A Leicester MP is calling for European prisoners to be

returned to their countries as soon as possible, before

Labour's Keith Vaz was speaking at a debate

in Westminster about how Brexit would affect law enforcement.

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

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

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

for stealing a taxi at gunpoint, after threatening children

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

to intimidate motorists on Groby Road - one of whom had

He then robbed a taxi driver and stole his vehicle

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

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

They've been expressing their concerns

about the plans at a consultation event today.

Campaigners say it will destroy the views around

Stanton Gate in Derbyshire - and harm local wildlife.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Now, Vanished Leicester is an archive of more

than a thousand photographs documenting the demolished

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

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

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

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

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

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

The Victorian housing where poor quality and were demolished in slum

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

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

the University of Leicester website is called vanish Leicester. This

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

architectural history will now be preserved ever. The University of

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

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

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

Have a look. Time for sport now -

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

cup is all about. More on the cup tie

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

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

the next Nottingham Forest boss? Forest have made an approach

to his current club Clough today has spoken with

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

about the Anglo Welsh Cup - but then, it is the old enemy

Northampton. Now, back to events here

at Pride Park tonight. Derby fighting for promotion

to the Premier League. Premier League Champions Leicester

beginning to worry about fighting Both thinking that the FA Cup

could be a highlight of the season. Over 120 appearences for Derby,

over 170 for Leicester. So, you played the both teams, here?

What is going to happen tonight? I think we will see goals, a few

cautions, a fantastic atmosphere. 5000 travelling fans. Leicester come

here and they are vulnerable, on they? They are. They're a waveform

isn't great. It is interesting to see what team they picked. -- there

waveform isn't great. I talk to fans at Leicester before the start of the

season and they were targeting this competition thinking, if we don't

win the Premier League we would look to win the FA cup. They have had a

top game in the Champions League. But, if I was a Leicester player I

would want to try and get into the final of the FA Cup. The Derby, is

this the opportunity to show they belong at Premier League level? And

the performance in the last round was fantastic. They want to pitch

themselves against the champions tonight, here. A cup run, I feel,

can only benefit either side. You have enjoyed yourself on some great

games comic you don't usually sit on the fence, where is your heart

tonight? My heart is on both sides. But, my head says, I have a sneaky

feeling the Derby tonight. The atmosphere here, the defensive

record under Steve McClaren, I think Derby might nick it. My heart, is

divided. Well, Bobby was absolutely buzzing when I spoke to him and the

ethics cup is still special, you can keep up with it it is likely this

evening. -- the FA Cup. BBC radio Derby and Leicester also both have

fought match coverage. A big weekend a spot ahead and we will enjoy it

all. Colin's noses tanning a bit pink

there. I hope Bobby has plenty of product in his heart. -- I hope

Robbie Savage. It is not going to be nice there whether wise is it?

It will be a very different start to the day tomorrow compared to what we

experience the best thing this morning. Captured nicely by our

weather watches... One of the Fountains throws in Derby. It was

that cold last night. It will be a wet night, we have this band of rain

working its way in. It is still very cold outside, over high ground it

might the sleet. My other air is coming in all the time so will

revert back to rain. Misty and murky conditions linked as well. The

minimum temperature is around two Celsius. The rain band is still

present first thing tomorrow morning. It will slowly start to

clear and we will hold onto quite a bit of clout in the afternoon.

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

chance of some heavy showers which could contain thunder. The daytime,

quite a contrast to yesterday, and maximum per Saturday at seven

Celsius. Clearest spells on Saturday. On Sunday, more rain

coming in from the south. It could move its position, but at the moment

it shows it is coming to the east Midlands. And maximum temperature of

seven Celsius. Monday, low pressure. I'm out weaker but wet and windy at

times. Thank you, we would like to point

out that there is no bias towards Leicester. Note if the weather

buyers even know it was very blue. We know you understand the risks

associated with your pregnancy. Because I'm smaller, people think

my hopes are not so great. You know what it's like when

help is needed. You just jump in. Are you saying that

he's stalking you now?
