into the directors of the collapsed
company Carillion. That is all from | 0:00:00 | 0:00:00 | |
the BBC News | 0:00:00 | 0:00:14 | |
Good afternoon.
the BBC News | 0:00:14 | 0:00:16 | |
I'm Asad Ahmad.
the BBC News | 0:00:16 | 0:00:17 | |
A woman from east London,
who underwent a gall bladder | 0:00:17 | 0:00:19 | |
operation which she says went wrong,
has made a commitment to return any | 0:00:19 | 0:00:22 | |
compensation she gets
to the health service. | 0:00:22 | 0:00:26 | |
Nicola Jane Cook is suing the NHS
for hundreds of thousands of pounds | 0:00:26 | 0:00:29 | |
and Sarah Harris has been
to meet her. | 0:00:29 | 0:00:37 | |
After years of operations,
Nicola Jane Cook needs a mobility | 0:00:37 | 0:00:39 | |
scooter to get around even
at home in Barking. | 0:00:39 | 0:00:42 | |
She says it was a gall bladder
operation that went wrong | 0:00:42 | 0:00:44 | |
that was the start of her troubles. | 0:00:44 | 0:00:46 | |
She's had surgery at several
different hospitals in and around | 0:00:46 | 0:00:51 | |
London including, she claims,
a lung procedure | 0:00:51 | 0:00:53 | |
that was unnecessary. | 0:00:53 | 0:01:00 | |
It's absolutely destroying. | 0:01:00 | 0:01:01 | |
I mean it stops you from working. | 0:01:01 | 0:01:03 | |
It stops everything. | 0:01:03 | 0:01:04 | |
It stops relationships
with your family. | 0:01:04 | 0:01:05 | |
You shut yourself away. | 0:01:05 | 0:01:06 | |
I never left the house
for four years. | 0:01:06 | 0:01:08 | |
I slept on the sofa for two
and a half because I couldn't move. | 0:01:08 | 0:01:12 | |
It's absolutely disgraceful. | 0:01:12 | 0:01:13 | |
She claims she's been told
by her legal team she's owed | 0:01:13 | 0:01:15 | |
hundreds of thousands of pounds
in compensation from the NHS | 0:01:15 | 0:01:18 | |
which she is determined to give
to the charity at her local | 0:01:18 | 0:01:21 | |
hospital, the Queens in Romford,
which she says has done everything | 0:01:21 | 0:01:25 | |
to support her health. | 0:01:25 | 0:01:27 | |
The King George and Queens hospitals
charity raises thousands of pounds | 0:01:27 | 0:01:30 | |
every year to supplement
what the NHS does. | 0:01:30 | 0:01:35 | |
It raises money for things
like toys for children | 0:01:35 | 0:01:37 | |
who are having invasive surgery,
and mobility scooters for patients | 0:01:37 | 0:01:40 | |
who have had a stroke. | 0:01:40 | 0:01:43 | |
NHS insiders say off the record
this doesn't help them, | 0:01:43 | 0:01:46 | |
as it will rack up large legal bills
but Nicola believes it will raise | 0:01:46 | 0:01:51 | |
standards and benefit patients
and doctors in her own area. | 0:01:51 | 0:01:56 | |
They are the ones that
are on the front line, you know. | 0:01:56 | 0:01:59 | |
They are a national treasure
and we have to look after them. | 0:01:59 | 0:02:02 | |
I want to give it back because it's
a legacy for my children and it's | 0:02:02 | 0:02:06 | |
a health care that they can rely on. | 0:02:06 | 0:02:09 | |
All Nicola really wants is to get
well and to support medical staff | 0:02:09 | 0:02:12 | |
at her local hospital. | 0:02:12 | 0:02:15 | |
Sarah Harris, BBC London News. | 0:02:15 | 0:02:18 | |
Two men have been charged
with the murder of a man | 0:02:18 | 0:02:21 | |
who was stabbed in the heart in west
London on Thursday. | 0:02:21 | 0:02:24 | |
25-year-old Harry Uzoka worked
as a model and was attacked in broad | 0:02:24 | 0:02:27 | |
daylight in Shepherd's Bush. | 0:02:28 | 0:02:30 | |
George Koh, from Camden
and Jonathan Okigbo, | 0:02:30 | 0:02:31 | |
from Kentish Town, will appear
at the Old Bailey on Thursday. | 0:02:31 | 0:02:41 | |
An elderly cancer patient
who was attacked outside his home | 0:02:47 | 0:02:49 | |
in east London for
his watch has died. | 0:02:49 | 0:02:51 | |
82-year-old Ahmet Dobran
was on life-support | 0:02:51 | 0:02:53 | |
following the attack by three
men in August. | 0:02:53 | 0:02:54 | |
One man has been charged
but police are still trying | 0:02:54 | 0:02:57 | |
to identify two men seen on CCTV
running away from the scene. | 0:02:57 | 0:03:00 | |
Lawyers have put a figure on how
much thieves managed to steal | 0:03:00 | 0:03:03 | |
in the Hatton Garden safety deposit
box theft in London three years ago. | 0:03:03 | 0:03:06 | |
They say it was around 13
and a half million pounds, | 0:03:06 | 0:03:09 | |
which is less than some estimates
had put the total. | 0:03:09 | 0:03:11 | |
A judge will now decide how
much five of the gang, | 0:03:11 | 0:03:14 | |
all of whom are in
prison, will pay back. | 0:03:14 | 0:03:17 | |
Much of what was stolen has
never been recovered. | 0:03:17 | 0:03:19 | |
One of the robbers
is still on the run. | 0:03:19 | 0:03:21 | |
The BBC and Premier League have
started a campaign called | 0:03:21 | 0:03:24 | |
Super Movers to help primary school
teachers encourage children | 0:03:24 | 0:03:27 | |
to become more active. | 0:03:27 | 0:03:30 | |
The scheme intends to
enhance their learning | 0:03:30 | 0:03:32 | |
through the activities
and Tim Muffet has been finding out | 0:03:32 | 0:03:34 | |
more at the Ashmount
Primary in Crouch Hill. | 0:03:34 | 0:03:37 | |

more at the Ashmount
Primary in Crouch Hill. | 0:03:40 | 0:03:43 | |
We've just pushed back the desks
slightly in this classroom | 0:03:43 | 0:03:45 | |
and everyone is getting active. | 0:03:45 | 0:03:46 | |
You might rescue recognise one
of the super movers here. | 0:03:46 | 0:03:49 | |
It's Gabby Logan. | 0:03:49 | 0:03:50 | |
A supermove ambassador. | 0:03:50 | 0:03:51 | |
Can you dance and talk
at the same time? | 0:03:51 | 0:03:53 | |
Can I do it without dancing? | 0:03:53 | 0:03:54 | |
Is that all right? | 0:03:54 | 0:03:55 | |
You're allowed to stop briefly. | 0:03:55 | 0:03:57 | |
Explain to us how
Super Movers works. | 0:03:57 | 0:03:58 | |
It's a brilliant resource
and it's online for teachers | 0:03:58 | 0:04:00 | |
and families to access. | 0:04:01 | 0:04:02 | |
50 videos we've made and this
is the one we've got on now | 0:04:02 | 0:04:05 | |
which is a numeracy video. | 0:04:05 | 0:04:06 | |
Dance moves with a song
that was also educational so you've | 0:04:06 | 0:04:08 | |
got the cognitive ability improving
because they're having to think | 0:04:08 | 0:04:11 | |
about the words and the moves. | 0:04:11 | 0:04:12 | |
There are literacy videos as well,
and people that the kids know | 0:04:12 | 0:04:15 | |
who made these videos. | 0:04:15 | 0:04:16 | |
I would love every kid to do an hour
of PE every day but that's just not | 0:04:16 | 0:04:20 | |
always possible at these schools. | 0:04:20 | 0:04:22 | |
I'll let you carry on your dancing. | 0:04:22 | 0:04:23 | |
Thank you. | 0:04:23 | 0:04:24 | |
You might recognise another super
mover here, Alex Scott, | 0:04:24 | 0:04:26 | |
Arsenal football and former England
player as well. | 0:04:26 | 0:04:29 | |
Why did you decide to
get involved in this? | 0:04:29 | 0:04:32 | |
Because it's so important to let
the children know that physical | 0:04:32 | 0:04:35 | |
activity has so many benefits,
health benefits as well, | 0:04:35 | 0:04:37 | |
but most importantly that you can
have fun whilst you're working out. | 0:04:37 | 0:04:40 | |
Do think it's harder and harder
for kids to stay active | 0:04:40 | 0:04:43 | |
and keep moving around? | 0:04:43 | 0:04:45 | |
It is but it's so important
and that's why I wanted to be part | 0:04:45 | 0:04:48 | |
of this because if you engage
the children at this age | 0:04:48 | 0:04:51 | |
and they realise it's fun
they will carry on with that. | 0:04:51 | 0:04:54 | |
Let's talk to some of them now. | 0:04:54 | 0:04:55 | |
Guys, are you enjoying it? | 0:04:55 | 0:04:56 | |
Yes. | 0:04:56 | 0:04:59 | |
What's the best bit about doing
this in the classroom? | 0:04:59 | 0:05:02 | |
If it's a rainy day then you can
go inside and if it's | 0:05:02 | 0:05:05 | |
not a rainy day... | 0:05:05 | 0:05:07 | |
And you don't have to get changed. | 0:05:07 | 0:05:10 | |
You can incorporate it
into your normal day. | 0:05:10 | 0:05:11 | |
You don't have to go outside. | 0:05:11 | 0:05:13 | |
What's it like being active
and getting your brain working? | 0:05:13 | 0:05:17 | |
It relieves your mind
from all the hard stuff you've done. | 0:05:17 | 0:05:20 | |
If you've been writing a lot,
and if you do super movers, | 0:05:20 | 0:05:26 | |
it will de-stress you. | 0:05:26 | 0:05:29 | |
You know what, let's
carry on dancing. | 0:05:29 | 0:05:31 | |
Thanks very much indeed. | 0:05:31 | 0:05:34 | |
Tim Muffet reporting. | 0:05:34 | 0:05:37 | |
A new outdoor gym has
opened in Tower Hamlets. | 0:05:37 | 0:05:40 | |
What's the big deal? | 0:05:40 | 0:05:42 | |
Well, it's constructed
from the metal of recycled knives. | 0:05:42 | 0:05:45 | |
It's in Poplar and its
hoped to draw young | 0:05:45 | 0:05:47 | |
people away from crime. | 0:05:47 | 0:05:49 | |
Amelia Martyn-Hemphill
went to take a look. | 0:05:49 | 0:05:52 | |
This gym is made from melted knives
taken off the streets of London | 0:05:52 | 0:05:56 | |
to try to change attitudes
about knife crime. | 0:05:56 | 0:06:00 | |
Knife crime in the capital is
at its highest level in seven years. | 0:06:00 | 0:06:05 | |
Every month the police seize
about a tonne of knives off | 0:06:05 | 0:06:08 | |
the streets of London. | 0:06:08 | 0:06:10 | |
A charity called Steel Warriors
wanted to transform all that metal | 0:06:10 | 0:06:14 | |
into a positive symbol. | 0:06:14 | 0:06:18 | |
For many young people it's not seen
as a shocking thing to carry | 0:06:18 | 0:06:22 | |
a knife and we want to get
people rethinking that. | 0:06:22 | 0:06:26 | |
We feel like there aren't enough
spaces across the city | 0:06:26 | 0:06:29 | |
and across the country where young
people can build more | 0:06:29 | 0:06:32 | |
physical confidence. | 0:06:32 | 0:06:34 | |
So they melted down the knives
and built a steel gym. | 0:06:34 | 0:06:38 | |
Snap chat QR codes generate mobile
videos showing people how | 0:06:38 | 0:06:41 | |
to use the equipment. | 0:06:41 | 0:06:44 | |
So they won't even need to pay
for a personal trainer, | 0:06:44 | 0:06:46 | |
they won't need to pay
for a gym membership. | 0:06:46 | 0:06:49 | |
They'll have a free gym and a free
trainer there for them. | 0:06:49 | 0:06:51 | |
One of the online trainers is Derek. | 0:06:51 | 0:06:55 | |
He spent ten years in jail
for knife-related crime in the US. | 0:06:55 | 0:07:00 | |
Why do young people feel
they need to carry knives? | 0:07:00 | 0:07:03 | |
One of the main things
is to feel protected. | 0:07:03 | 0:07:06 | |
Once you start building that muscle
and feeling more kind | 0:07:06 | 0:07:09 | |
of confident about yourself,
you don't feel the need | 0:07:09 | 0:07:12 | |
to carry weapons. | 0:07:12 | 0:07:14 | |
It's too early to say
whether the gym will change | 0:07:14 | 0:07:16 | |
attitudes to knife crime,
but the team is hoping | 0:07:16 | 0:07:18 | |
to build more. | 0:07:18 | 0:07:20 | |
Hopefully this will play a part
in not only getting people talking | 0:07:20 | 0:07:23 | |
about the issue of knife crime,
but also play a part in giving | 0:07:23 | 0:07:27 | |
people more of a positive way
of spending their time. | 0:07:27 | 0:07:36 | |
Ben Wintour ending that report
from Amelia Martyn-Hemphill. | 0:07:43 | 0:07:45 | |
The new American Embassy has
opened its doors in Battersea. | 0:07:45 | 0:07:47 | |
With a price tag
of a billion dollars, | 0:07:47 | 0:07:49 | |
it's one of the most expensive US
Embassy's anywhere in the world. | 0:07:49 | 0:07:52 | |
But it's already become
famous for being snubbed | 0:07:52 | 0:07:54 | |
by President Donald Trump
who said he wouldn't come | 0:07:54 | 0:07:56 | |
to London to open it
because he didn't like the location | 0:07:56 | 0:07:59 | |
and was unhappy about the cost. | 0:07:59 | 0:08:00 | |
Now the weather with Kate. | 0:08:00 | 0:08:01 | |
Good afternoon. | 0:08:01 | 0:08:02 | |
Well, it's not been
a bad day all in all. | 0:08:02 | 0:08:05 | |
Near enough a cloudless sky
for much of the morning. | 0:08:05 | 0:08:07 | |
Blue sky, sunshine, but we have had
quite a cold wind and that's | 0:08:07 | 0:08:10 | |
going to stay with us
into the afternoon. | 0:08:10 | 0:08:12 | |
Now there is more cloud
around so sunny spells | 0:08:12 | 0:08:14 | |
in general, and, yes,
it is still going to | 0:08:14 | 0:08:16 | |
feel rather chilly. | 0:08:16 | 0:08:17 | |
Now it's a westerly wind. | 0:08:17 | 0:08:19 | |
One or two isolated showers. | 0:08:19 | 0:08:20 | |
Many of us avoiding them though. | 0:08:20 | 0:08:22 | |
We'll get some sunny spells
through the afternoon. | 0:08:22 | 0:08:24 | |
If you do get a shower later on,
could turn a little bit | 0:08:24 | 0:08:27 | |
wintry on higher ground,
the Chilterns for example. | 0:08:27 | 0:08:29 | |
Maximum temperature in the meantime
at five Celsius so still some | 0:08:29 | 0:08:31 | |
showers whizzing through overnight. | 0:08:31 | 0:08:33 | |
The breeze staying quite brisk
as well so they won't last for long, | 0:08:33 | 0:08:36 | |
and again higher ground,
they could fall a little bit wintry. | 0:08:36 | 0:08:39 | |
To lower levels, probably
just falling as rain. | 0:08:39 | 0:08:42 | |
Minimum temperature, 1-2 Celsius,
which could lead to maybe one | 0:08:42 | 0:08:45 | |
or two icy stretches first
thing tomorrow morning. | 0:08:45 | 0:08:47 | |
Now for Wednesday,
plenty of sunshine. | 0:08:47 | 0:08:49 | |
Yes, we've still got that breeze
so it's going to feel quite chilly | 0:08:49 | 0:08:53 | |
but less showers around,
maximum temperature | 0:08:53 | 0:08:55 | |
up at seven Celsius. | 0:08:55 | 0:08:57 | |
It probably is not going
to feel that warm though. | 0:08:57 | 0:09:00 | |
Now, as we head into Wednesday
night, all eyes towards that, | 0:09:00 | 0:09:02 | |
a storm tracking across the north
towards the UK and the Met Office | 0:09:02 | 0:09:06 | |
has issued a yellow weather warning
for the strong winds, | 0:09:06 | 0:09:08 | |
coupled with some heavy rain
and that will continue | 0:09:08 | 0:09:10 | |
through to Thursday morning,
so some disruptive weather | 0:09:10 | 0:09:13 | |
potentially over night Wednesday. | 0:09:14 | 0:09:17 | |
That's it. | 0:09:17 | 0:09:20 | |
Riz will be back at 6.30
with our next news on BBC One. | 0:09:20 | 0:09:23 | |
From me, for now,
have a lovely afternoon. | 0:09:23 | 0:09:25 | |
Bye bye. | 0:09:25 | 0:09:28 |
