You can see more on all of today's stories on the BBC News Channel. | :00:00. | :00:13. | |
With your news now for the East Midlands, I'm Emily Anderson. | :00:14. | :00:15. | |
First tonight, Severn Trent has apologised to thousands of customers | :00:16. | :00:21. | |
in Derby who've been affected by a huge water main burst. | :00:22. | :00:24. | |
At its height, 7,500 homes and businesses were affected. | :00:25. | :00:28. | |
Dozens of properties have been damaged in Chester Green | :00:29. | :00:33. | |
This dramatic footage was captured at around 2:30am, | :00:34. | :00:39. | |
At 10am, the water burst was much reduced but the houses directly | :00:40. | :00:46. | |
affected showed damage to windows, the roof, the doors, | :00:47. | :00:52. | |
Inside one of them, Dawn, too upset to be shown on camera, | :00:53. | :00:57. | |
I was woken up with a horrendous noise of crashing, glass breaking. | :00:58. | :01:03. | |
I couldn't comprehend what was happening. | :01:04. | :01:06. | |
It was so ferocious, it's took them 6.5 hours to close it down. | :01:07. | :01:15. | |
Meanwhile, dozens of other houses had also been flooded, | :01:16. | :01:17. | |
It's literally just destroyed everything. | :01:18. | :01:22. | |
It's destroyed the washing machine, the kitchen. | :01:23. | :01:26. | |
I mean, we've got a dog and cat upstairs. | :01:27. | :01:28. | |
Moved our cars down the road, and we were slowly watching it | :01:29. | :01:32. | |
rise and rise and rise and ruin everything. | :01:33. | :01:35. | |
My kitchen's flooded, the whole garden's flooded. | :01:36. | :01:37. | |
But that is the extent of it, so, hopefully, it'll be OK | :01:38. | :01:42. | |
Tonight, Severn Trent say they've now closed the burst off fully | :01:43. | :01:47. | |
and they've restored water to most houses locally. | :01:48. | :01:49. | |
But it could be several days before the road is fully repaired. | :01:50. | :01:58. | |
Two people have been charged with the murder | :01:59. | :02:00. | |
Timothy Smith, who was 45 and from Tamworth was found dying | :02:01. | :02:05. | |
in a car on the Gelders Hall industrial estate on Thursday night. | :02:06. | :02:08. | |
A 20-year-old man from Shepshed, and a 17-year-old, will appear | :02:09. | :02:13. | |
It's being claimed some people affected by HS2 in Nottinghamshire | :02:14. | :02:20. | |
are unfairly missing out on compensation. | :02:21. | :02:24. | |
The high speed rail line will go through Trowell, | :02:25. | :02:26. | |
but some residents may not get as much as others. | :02:27. | :02:31. | |
It's a village already split in half by the M1, | :02:32. | :02:36. | |
and now looks set to be sliced again by HS2. | :02:37. | :02:41. | |
Despite this, Trowell Parish Council says it should be seen not only | :02:42. | :02:45. | |
as one village but wholly as a rural village. | :02:46. | :02:49. | |
HS2, however, has classified much of Trowell as an urban village. | :02:50. | :02:54. | |
Which means people affected by the line in the urban part, | :02:55. | :02:58. | |
the area not surrounded by these multicoloured lines, | :02:59. | :03:01. | |
Trowell village on the map is an area which is slightly | :03:02. | :03:08. | |
to the west of the motorway, and the other half of the village | :03:09. | :03:19. | |
And my belief is they just hadn't realised we are actually part | :03:20. | :03:23. | |
Sport now and it was a great afternoon for the Leicester Tigers. | :03:24. | :03:44. | |
The Tigers beat Exeter Chiefs by 16-12 to win the Anglo-Welsh cup. | :03:45. | :03:52. | |
Onto basketball, and success for the Leicester Riders men's team today. | :03:53. | :03:55. | |
They beat Plymouth Raiders 82-67 in the BBL Trophy final | :03:56. | :04:01. | |
Bad news for the women though, they lost to the Sevenoaks Suns. | :04:02. | :04:09. | |
Time for a look at the weather now, here's Alex. | :04:10. | :04:11. | |
Well, I'd grab your brollies for tomorrow because we've got some | :04:12. | :04:17. | |
These fronts coming towards us, the isobars squeezing together | :04:18. | :04:22. | |
as well, so we are expecting some breezy conditions, too. | :04:23. | :04:24. | |
Looking at the detail tonight, dry for a time, a few showers | :04:25. | :04:27. | |
working their way across the region, and a mild night tonight | :04:28. | :04:30. | |
Now, watch out tomorrow morning, there could be some spray | :04:31. | :04:33. | |
and standing water on the roads as this wet weather | :04:34. | :04:36. | |
We are expecting highs of 12 Celsius and slightly drier | :04:37. | :04:40. | |
and brighter weather as we go through the afternoon. | :04:41. | :04:43. | |
Sunshine and showers on the way, noticeably cooler, though, | :04:44. | :04:49. | |
We're back tomorrow morning from 6:25am. | :04:50. | :04:55. | |
Good evening. There is some rain coming into the southern half of the | :04:56. | :05:15. | |
UK as we speak. I think by the end of the night it will have got into | :05:16. | :05:19. | |
the Midlands and much of East Anglia as well. A bit of a breeze here as | :05:20. | :05:24. | |
well. Some gusty winds and snow on the hills of Scotland. With all of | :05:25. | :05:32. | |
that going on, it is not particularly cold overnight. | :05:33. | :05:34. | |
Southern areas will hang on to double figures in many towns and | :05:35. | :05:38. | |
cities. A bit of a messy picture for the start of the new week. The rain | :05:39. | :05:41. | |
moves quickly eastwards across Scotland. For Northern England, | :05:42. | :05:46. | |
Wales, the Midlands and South West it is a miserable start to the day. | :05:47. | :05:52. | |
Brighter skies do follow along behind but with some showers. Wintry | :05:53. | :05:56. | |
showers across the hills of Scotland. The cold Iraq continues to | :05:57. | :06:04. | |
filter its way in. Through the evening, once the sun goes | :06:05. | :06:08. |
