:00:00. > :00:07.Tonight: Did a Derbyshire woman die because of a painkiller

:00:08. > :00:09.Kymberley Holden had multiple sclerosis.

:00:10. > :00:18.She collapsed at home after visiting her doctor.

:00:19. > :00:26.Living with depression, the campaigners tackling the stigma

:00:27. > :00:29.surrounding mental health. Plus, how scientists are Nottingham are using

:00:30. > :00:38.the rents to help crack down on fly-tipping. A moment he will never

:00:39. > :00:39.forget, as Leicester City reached the quarterfinals of the Champions

:00:40. > :00:51.League. An inquest has heard that

:00:52. > :00:54.a Derbyshire woman was prescribed ten times the dosage she should have

:00:55. > :00:56.been of a strong painkiller 27-year-old Kymberley Holden had

:00:57. > :01:05.been diagnosed with multiple sclerosis and had been

:01:06. > :01:07.to see her doctor for The court heard that there

:01:08. > :01:11.was a high level of the painkiller in her blood when she died due

:01:12. > :01:26.to a prescription error. She had a smile for everyone, that

:01:27. > :01:31.is how Kymberley Holden's dad described her daughter today at the

:01:32. > :01:38.inquest into her sudden death two and I years ago. Temp two, a

:01:39. > :01:41.dispatch officer for an Ambulance Service, was diagnosed with multiple

:01:42. > :01:47.sclerosis a year before she died. Her father and boyfriend described

:01:48. > :01:53.her purse condition was so severe that she needed a wheelchair after

:01:54. > :01:56.using the usurper right leg. They told the inquest that he had been

:01:57. > :02:04.feeling unwell in the days leading up to her death. Her boyfriend said

:02:05. > :02:08.that he woke in the middle of the night finding his girlfriend

:02:09. > :02:13.unconscious. She died later in hospital. We also heard from

:02:14. > :02:20.Kymberley's nurse and a toxicologist. From their evidence we

:02:21. > :02:26.learned about a strong painkiller that was said to be a cause of her

:02:27. > :02:29.death, one of the causes per death. Kymberley had been prescribed ten

:02:30. > :02:34.times the dosage that you should have been. In the hours before she

:02:35. > :02:38.died, Kymberley had taken three doses to cope with the tax of pain

:02:39. > :02:48.in her right leg. The postmortem report get the cause of death as

:02:49. > :02:52.debit disease, and an overdose of the painkilling medicine. Tomorrow,

:02:53. > :02:57.the inquest will hear from Kymberley's GP, who prescribed the

:02:58. > :03:03.The son of a man who took his own life is campaigning to highlight

:03:04. > :03:05.what he says is the secrecy, shame and stigma that still

:03:06. > :03:11.It's a particular issue here in the East Midlands among some

:03:12. > :03:14.Kal Singh Dhindsa's father, Mohinder, struggled

:03:15. > :03:20.Kal says attitudes are changing, but not fast enough.

:03:21. > :03:24.Our Health correspondent Rob Sissons reports.

:03:25. > :03:27.My father took his own life, died by suicide on March 1st, 2006.

:03:28. > :03:39.He is never out of my mind, never out of my memory.

:03:40. > :03:44.His shed, he jokingly calls it his 'Man Cave',

:03:45. > :03:48.is a place where he has done plenty of thinking about mental health.

:03:49. > :03:50.He has also written about his dad's depression.

:03:51. > :03:54.He wants to challenge the stigma of mental illness.

:03:55. > :03:58.The question that kept stirring in my mind was, "Why did he do it?

:03:59. > :04:03.As soon as you can accept that someone has done this

:04:04. > :04:07.because their mind was corrupted and they had a mental illness,

:04:08. > :04:10.you can accept that what they did, they did because they were not

:04:11. > :04:13.Mental health is to be subject for many groups,

:04:14. > :04:15.but that Leicestershire's mental health trust, this psychiatrist says

:04:16. > :04:22.there are some particular challenges in Asian communities.

:04:23. > :04:25.When you have high blood pressure or diabetes,

:04:26. > :04:28.people understand that your body has a problem.

:04:29. > :04:30.When you have a mental health problem, people may actually take

:04:31. > :04:36.Some people may think it is punishment from God,

:04:37. > :04:43.or the effect of karma or past life, and sometimes it is

:04:44. > :04:53.This project in Leicester aims to challenge myths.

:04:54. > :04:56.Mina suffers depression, and says she was a recluse at home

:04:57. > :05:02.You are scared to go out because, you know, they might

:05:11. > :05:17.Everybody is with me, friendly and I like all the activities.

:05:18. > :05:19.After 30 years of work, the project senses attitudes

:05:20. > :05:22.are changing, moving in the right direction, albeit slowly.

:05:23. > :05:32.Rob Sissons, BBC East Midlands today, Leicester.

:05:33. > :05:34.Police have formally identified the 25-year-old man found dead

:05:35. > :05:38.from stab wounds at a house in Ashby in Leicestershire.

:05:39. > :05:41.Warren Hall was found at a bungalow in Holland Crescent last Thursday,

:05:42. > :05:50.along with a seriously injured woman and an unharmed two-year-old child.

:05:51. > :05:52.The woman, named locally as 25-year-old Sandie Rayne,

:05:53. > :05:54.had suffered stabbed wounds and was airlifted to hospital.

:05:55. > :05:58.The child is being cared for by relatives.

:05:59. > :06:00.Police have named the 52-year-old man who died in a collision

:06:01. > :06:06.Ian Newell, from Grantham, was driving one of the six vehicles

:06:07. > :06:10.Nottinghamshire police are continuing to investigate

:06:11. > :06:12.the accident, which shut the road in both directions

:06:13. > :06:16.A 38-year-old man, arrested on suspicion of causing death

:06:17. > :06:22.by dangerous driving, has been released on police bail.

:06:23. > :06:23.Derbyshire police have been suspended from the Government's

:06:24. > :06:31.It has become the only force in the country to lose

:06:32. > :06:33.the new accreditation, which requires more

:06:34. > :06:38.Inspectors have ruled that it failed to reach agreed standards.

:06:39. > :06:40.Senior officers say they are disappointed by the suspension.

:06:41. > :06:43.They say new mobile recording equipment will be brought into use

:06:44. > :06:49.Still to come this evening: How forensic science is cracking

:06:50. > :06:57.And the Navy club that wants you to join up,

:06:58. > :07:00.and there is always a tot of rum on offer!

:07:01. > :07:12.Next tonight, we're being told major work to repair a railway bridge

:07:13. > :07:25.in Leicestershire which collapsed eight months ago causing travel

:07:26. > :07:27.chaos across the country is finally close to completion.

:07:28. > :07:30.Village life in Barrow Upon Soar has been disrupted since the bridge

:07:31. > :07:32.crumbled onto the Midland Mainline at the beginning of August.

:07:33. > :07:36.It will now re-open at the end of March, but there's a warning

:07:37. > :07:45.Well, yes, this is the bridge that sparked chaos for rail passengers up

:07:46. > :07:50.and down the country at the beginning of August.

:07:51. > :07:52.You may remember this Victorian crossing, which spans

:07:53. > :07:55.the busy Midland Mainline, crumbled onto the tracks

:07:56. > :07:59.during an overnight inspection, stopping trains to and from London.

:08:00. > :08:03.Well, since then, Network Rail engineers have been here working day

:08:04. > :08:06.and night to repair it, removing 200 tonnes of debris,

:08:07. > :08:08.restoring the brick parapet, reconnecting gas and water mains

:08:09. > :08:14.running through the bridge as well as resurfacing the road.

:08:15. > :08:17.All that, as you can imagine, has led to diversions and disruption

:08:18. > :08:18.for those living and working in this community.

:08:19. > :08:26.Here's what villagers told me earlier.

:08:27. > :08:39.The noise led to a lot of sleepless nights. For us not too bad because

:08:40. > :08:43.we can catch up, but for others it must be horrendous. They have got to

:08:44. > :08:49.go to work. So it has affected your quality-of-life? Yes. We have had

:08:50. > :08:54.noise at weekends of people working on the bridge, Scrabble has not been

:08:55. > :08:59.particularly quiet. For me it is the noise and the fact they have these

:09:00. > :09:01.great big trucks and things, you can't even get out of your driveway.

:09:02. > :09:05.This bridge has been open to pedestrians for much of the last

:09:06. > :09:10.eight months and will finally reopen to vehicles on 27th March.

:09:11. > :09:13.But there's more to do, which is why 'finishing-off' work

:09:14. > :09:14.will have to continue later this year.

:09:15. > :09:17.Network Rail has told me there simply isn't enough room

:09:18. > :09:28.on site for all the work to be carried out at once.

:09:29. > :09:36.This is a very constrained site, it is a very narrow road. They have had

:09:37. > :09:40.to face the work in order to make sure we minimise disruption to

:09:41. > :09:44.people. We are sorry for the disruption. We have done everything

:09:45. > :09:46.we can to shorten the time scale, but make sure this old Bridget safe

:09:47. > :09:51.and secure for everybody. Network Rail has been discussing

:09:52. > :09:54.the work it's going to do and the work already done

:09:55. > :09:56.with villagers at a public I'm told that, in total,

:09:57. > :10:02.all the work here will come to around ?1 million and that future

:10:03. > :10:04.work will take place on four Saturday nights,

:10:05. > :10:19.but we don't yet know when. Now that railway bridge

:10:20. > :10:21.in Barrow may be Victorian, but it's a mere baby compared

:10:22. > :10:23.with Swarkestone Bridge The famous causeway

:10:24. > :10:27.running up to the bridge Not surprisingly, a road designed

:10:28. > :10:35.for horses and carts back in the 13th century gets damaged

:10:36. > :10:37.regularly by modern traffic, but now there are plans to put up

:10:38. > :10:40.signs to stop the largest lorries getting anywhere near it,

:10:41. > :10:54.as James Roberson reports. Traffic heading towards and away

:10:55. > :10:57.from Swarkestone Bridge in Derbyshire. The bridge over the

:10:58. > :11:01.River Trent itself is old enough, but the causeway across the flood

:11:02. > :11:06.plain is medieval. Nonetheless, they both get 20,000 vehicles a day over

:11:07. > :11:11.them. There are signs to stop the biggest lorries crossing but there

:11:12. > :11:15.are quite close to the structure. One of the problems is if they

:11:16. > :11:19.haven't read signs a couple of miles away warning of the impending

:11:20. > :11:24.problem, it is too late for them to turn around. You can see the traffic

:11:25. > :11:28.coming up and dine here, there is no work for them to turn around, so how

:11:29. > :11:35.can we preserve the bridge? There are plans to put up flashing signs

:11:36. > :11:40.to give time for a lorries to divert either north or south of the bridge.

:11:41. > :11:46.Linda would like to see an entirely new road across the flood plain.

:11:47. > :11:51.Numerous plans and boots were suggested in 2010. The last costs

:11:52. > :11:55.mentioned in a few years ago were in the region of 20 million. I imagine

:11:56. > :12:00.that would be 50 million night because they always come in more

:12:01. > :12:05.expensive plan for. I am all for preserving it, but it is not fit for

:12:06. > :12:08.purpose in the 21st century. It was not built for cars and people are

:12:09. > :12:14.complaining incessantly about it. The only option is to have another

:12:15. > :12:18.bypass. The council says that because of budgetary constraints

:12:19. > :12:19.those plans have not advanced since 2010, but the new warning lights

:12:20. > :12:21.should go up in May. but the new warning lights should go

:12:22. > :12:23.up in May. A team of Nottingham scientists

:12:24. > :12:25.is using forensic techniques There's been a big rise in illegal

:12:26. > :12:30.waste removal operators Now the Environment Agency is having

:12:31. > :12:33.to spend millions of pounds Fly-tipping costs councils

:12:34. > :12:42.in our region around ?1 million a year to clear up,

:12:43. > :12:49.and, depending on the type of waste, Here at the Environment Agency

:12:50. > :12:52.labs in Nottingham, they are using forensic science

:12:53. > :12:54.to identify if abandoned waste We take a small portion

:12:55. > :13:04.of the sample, place it on this instrument,

:13:05. > :13:06.which is an infrared... This sample was taken

:13:07. > :13:10.from a canister in a warehouse. The computer programme

:13:11. > :13:12.analyses the substance The position of the peaks on this

:13:13. > :13:21.chromatogram tell us what atoms are present in the substance

:13:22. > :13:24.and what their intensity is. From the type of substance that

:13:25. > :13:27.you find you can characterise the process that it comes from,

:13:28. > :13:30.and that might lead to where And it's that chemical fingerprint

:13:31. > :13:35.that allows investigators In particular, the Environment

:13:36. > :13:42.Agency has seen a big rise The Environment Agency estimates

:13:43. > :13:50.that waste crime diverts around ?1 billion a year from legitimate

:13:51. > :13:53.waste disposal businesses and from the Treasury,

:13:54. > :14:13.and they have spent ?65 million And number of companies that are

:14:14. > :14:15.really criminal gangs, that are not complying with the waste

:14:16. > :14:18.legislation. They are telling people they have permits when they don't.

:14:19. > :14:20.They are telling people they have permits when they don't.

:14:21. > :14:25.What we want to do is catch those people and stop them

:14:26. > :14:29.Those responsible can face an unlimited fine and/or up

:14:30. > :14:32.The forensic analysis is playing a vital part

:14:33. > :14:40.The unemployment rate in the East Midlands

:14:41. > :14:43.is at its lowest for more than a decade.

:14:44. > :14:46.Between November last year and January this year the number

:14:47. > :14:49.of people out of work in our region dropped by more than 9,000 compared

:14:50. > :14:54.Despite this, the number of people claiming Jobseekers Allowance rose

:14:55. > :15:00.by almost 2,000 to more than 31,000 claimants.

:15:01. > :15:03.More than ?600,000 is being made available to independent shops

:15:04. > :15:07.in Leicester to help improve their properties.

:15:08. > :15:10.Leicester City Council is offering the funds so that retailers can

:15:11. > :15:12.smarten up their shop fronts and help create attractive

:15:13. > :15:27.Still to come: It's been a wonderful Wednesday weather-wise,

:15:28. > :15:31.Yes, it has been a gorgeous day in the East Midlands,

:15:32. > :15:35.so I have stepped out to enjoy a few of the last rays because it

:15:36. > :15:47.I'll have your details at the end of the programme.

:15:48. > :15:53.Leicester City - officially one of the eight best sides in Europe.

:15:54. > :15:57.Last night, a win up there with their triumphs of last

:15:58. > :15:59.season sent Leicester through to the quarterfinals

:16:00. > :16:04.They beat Sevilla, who are serious contenders for the Spanish title,

:16:05. > :16:09.A display of control, all watched by Nikesh Rughani

:16:10. > :16:18.The atmosphere at the King Power Stadium was electric

:16:19. > :16:20.for arguably the biggest game in Leicester City's history.

:16:21. > :16:22.Once the nerves settled, it didn't take too long

:16:23. > :16:25.for the Foxes to take the lead through Captain Wes

:16:26. > :16:30.A 1-0 win would have sent Leicester through to the quarterfinals on away

:16:31. > :16:33.goals, but they continued to push forward and they sent the crowd

:16:34. > :16:36.into a frenzy when Marc Albrighton made it 2-0 nine minutes

:16:37. > :16:46.Albrighton has just possibly scored the biggest goal

:16:47. > :16:52.15 minutes from the end, Sevilla's Samir Nasri was sent off

:16:53. > :16:55.after head-butting Jamie Vardy and the tie looked to be safe,

:16:56. > :16:58.but the Spanish side won a penalty that could have sent the tie

:16:59. > :17:04.Kasper Schmeichel, though, had other ideas.

:17:05. > :17:14.The Foxes held on for the last ten minutes and secured one

:17:15. > :17:19.of the most famous victories in the club's history.

:17:20. > :17:21.I think it would be memorable for everybody at the football

:17:22. > :17:27.But I think the supporters who got behind us from the first minute.

:17:28. > :17:32.Especially the players, who I thought were outstanding tonight.

:17:33. > :17:34.So, the fairytale continues for Leicester City Football Club.

:17:35. > :17:36.Just a couple of weeks ago things look very bleak indeed.

:17:37. > :17:40.They were staring at the relegation zone in the Premier League, but now,

:17:41. > :17:42.under Craig Shakespeare's leadership, they are into the last

:17:43. > :17:46.eight in Europe and it has left the fans jubilant.

:17:47. > :17:54.This is the Leicester City of last year.

:17:55. > :17:57.I remember when we beat Manchester United 5-3,

:17:58. > :18:00.I thought it couldn't really get any better, then we come

:18:01. > :18:22.The best day in this club's history, I think.

:18:23. > :18:25.Where next for the Leicester glory ride?

:18:26. > :18:30.You can see the badges of the potential

:18:31. > :18:33.The huge names are all there - Barcelona, Bayern

:18:34. > :18:38.But equally, it might be Manchester City, who play tonight.

:18:39. > :18:41.We went out and about to find out who Leicester fans want

:18:42. > :18:43.in the draw on Friday, as you'll see, one

:18:44. > :19:01.Real Madrid. Great experience for Leicester, wouldn't it? Bayer

:19:02. > :19:05.Leverkusen. Definitely Barcelona. Beautiful city, pass, lovely weather

:19:06. > :19:10.at this time of year. If we are going to go out I would like to be

:19:11. > :19:18.against a good team, Barcelona. I would like to see them beat the best

:19:19. > :19:19.teams, Lionel Messi and all of them. Let's keep it going, definitely.

:19:20. > :19:25.I wonder, are we now at the point where the achievement is already

:19:26. > :19:27.so huge it simply doesn't matter what comes next?

:19:28. > :19:30.Right now, former England star Trevor Sinclair is on BBC Five Live

:19:31. > :19:32.watching to see if Manchester City can join Leicester

:19:33. > :19:36.A little earlier, I spoke to him about the scale

:19:37. > :19:46.It is an incredible achievement. You look at Manchester United when they

:19:47. > :19:51.first got into the Champions League, they struggled to make any impact.

:19:52. > :19:56.What Leicester have achieved is incredible. The players must be very

:19:57. > :20:01.proud of themselves and the manager, one of his first games in charge,

:20:02. > :20:05.what a way to start! They are all talking appear like they are almost

:20:06. > :20:11.like a League 1 club that is needed a long way in the FA Cup or

:20:12. > :20:16.something. Can they go further? Who would bet against it? Look at what

:20:17. > :20:19.they achieved last year. I think their league form seems to have

:20:20. > :20:29.suffered because of the Champions League. Claudio Ranieri did tinker a

:20:30. > :20:33.lot this season, playing players out of position. In this competition

:20:34. > :20:39.they will play to their strengths, playing on the counterattack. I

:20:40. > :20:48.think they could surprise a few. I wouldn't bet against them. The fans

:20:49. > :20:53.want Barcelona, half are looking forward to it, have terrified. They

:20:54. > :20:57.will all be difficult games, they will sit in against whoever they

:20:58. > :21:04.play against. When you have the players defending like that, Kasper

:21:05. > :21:07.Schmeichel playing out of his skin, getting the rub of the green that

:21:08. > :21:12.they weren't getting at the beginning of the season, those

:21:13. > :21:18.players will need to play well. If they can do this it will be an

:21:19. > :21:22.amazing achievement. Talking about getting to the semifinal of the

:21:23. > :21:25.Champions League! That would be the holy grail for Leicester City.

:21:26. > :21:35.The draw is on Friday at 11 o'clock in the morning.

:21:36. > :21:38.Just finally, Leicester City weren't the only team playing last night,

:21:39. > :21:41.but I'm afraid it was two defeats for our sides in League Two.

:21:42. > :21:43.Mansfield will be the most disappointed after seeing Colchester

:21:44. > :21:45.leapfrog above them in the race for the play-offs.

:21:46. > :21:50.No surprise that Notts County lost at table topping Doncaster.

:21:51. > :21:53.They gave them a scare, though, with this goal from Richard Duffy.

:21:54. > :21:56.All before Rovers took the lead and then polished it off with this

:21:57. > :22:06.goal into an empty net as Notts desperately hunted an equaliser.

:22:07. > :22:11.Not quite that Leicester's level, but still hunting for glory.

:22:12. > :22:13.Now, were you or someone in your family ever in the navy?
