Welcome to Look East. Coming up in the next 30 minutes: Cambridge or

:00:14.:00:17.

pledges �30 million to bring up all residents are up to speed on the

:00:17.:00:26.

Internet. Banned for one year for driving with two mobile phones.

:00:26.:00:29.

Baylis get ready to go into the biggest illegal travellers' site in

:00:29.:00:35.

the country. The Canaries get off to a flying start in the Premier

:00:35.:00:45.
:00:45.:00:48.

League. Every household in Cambridgeshire

:00:48.:00:54.

is tonight been promised a high- speed broadband connection with in

:00:54.:00:57.

four years. It is the most ambitious move planned in this

:00:57.:01:02.

region. The idea is to boost business and cut the difference

:01:02.:01:07.

between town and country. It will cost �70 million, with the money

:01:08.:01:14.

from him -- the money coming from the county council. 90 % of homes

:01:14.:01:24.

should get 25 megabyte. Now the details. Super-fast broadband for

:01:24.:01:29.

nearly every household and company by 2015. That was the promise of

:01:29.:01:34.

the county council. They say it will be good for business because

:01:34.:01:39.

it will attract companies and create jobs. The house walls as

:01:39.:01:43.

well, because whether you live in the City or the country, you will

:01:43.:01:53.
:01:53.:01:54.

have broadband. Broadband is a moderate they internet. -- a modern

:01:54.:01:59.

day Internet. For many of us, it is essential. It is part of life. It

:02:00.:02:07.

is vital. I would wanted faster, yes. It is very slow. -- I want it

:02:07.:02:16.

faster. Faster broadband is the goal in Cambridgeshire. Up to 25

:02:16.:02:21.

megabytes is enough for online gaming and downloading. Better for

:02:21.:02:26.

our households and businesses. lot of evidence suggests that

:02:26.:02:31.

faster broadband and economic growth goes hand in hand. We do not

:02:31.:02:35.

have that in Cambridge. We have any in this county to stay ahead of

:02:35.:02:41.

competitors, not just in this country but worldwide. For many of

:02:41.:02:44.

us the speed of our broadband depends on how close we are to

:02:44.:02:49.

telephone exchanges. If you live close by you will get full speed,

:02:49.:02:53.

miles down the road, it could be half the speed. If you live in the

:02:53.:02:57.

countryside it could be a fraction of that speed. In recent tests,

:02:57.:03:04.

these were the average speeds. Hertfordshire was the fastest. In

:03:04.:03:08.

Cambridgeshire, faster broadband means spending money on fibre-optic

:03:08.:03:15.

cable. Technology demands even faster speeds. The future of the

:03:15.:03:20.

Internet, with interconnected devices and live streaming, you are

:03:20.:03:29.

looking at more than 25 next. -- 25 megabytes. The upgrade it should

:03:29.:03:35.

happen by 2015. Super-fast broadband at the cost of �70

:03:35.:03:40.

million. Paint Borwick is another thing, 20 million will come from

:03:40.:03:44.

the council, 8 million from government, but �42 million will

:03:44.:03:51.

come from the private sector. -- paying for it.

:03:51.:03:56.

A motorist who used two mobile phones while driving has received a

:03:56.:04:01.

ban for I hear today. David Secker was chatting on one and set and

:04:01.:04:05.

looking at the other when he was stopped by the police. -- banned

:04:05.:04:11.

for one year. Due to a misunderstanding, David Secker did

:04:11.:04:17.

not turn up the court last month and was found guilty in his absence.

:04:17.:04:22.

He was found using two phones at the wheel. He was driving his box

:04:22.:04:28.

all on this stretch of the A47. -- died in his car on this stretch. He

:04:28.:04:35.

was spotted by an unmarked car policeman. In his absence, it was

:04:35.:04:39.

said that some details had been misreported. It was said that his

:04:39.:04:44.

client had been driving with his knees, but warned that each year.

:04:45.:04:49.

The prosecution and defence agreed this was not the case was not -- a

:04:49.:04:57.

mobile phone at each ear. He accepted he had not been in proper

:04:57.:05:03.

control of the car. David Secker, who is unemployed, had been driving

:05:03.:05:07.

without insurance. He was given 14 points on his licence, banned from

:05:07.:05:16.

driving, and given a monetary fine. I did not realise my case was

:05:16.:05:22.

called in. We all see people using the mobile phones, lighting

:05:22.:05:27.

cigarettes, eating apples. We see all sorts of things. It was

:05:27.:05:32.

unfortunate that he was using two mobile phones. He was not

:05:32.:05:36.

communicating with two separate people. That would have been more

:05:36.:05:41.

serious. The police campaign against those who use bones is

:05:41.:05:48.

continuing. Court finds it is -- court fines can reach �1,000. --

:05:48.:05:54.

against those who use mobile phones. Late this afternoon I spoke to

:05:54.:06:04.
:06:04.:06:04.

chief inspector Chris Spinks. quite pleased with the sentence, 12

:06:04.:06:08.

months' disqualification get him off the road for 12 months, I did

:06:08.:06:11.

send out a clear message that this sort of behaviour will not be

:06:11.:06:17.

tolerated. -- and it also sends out a clear message. There were some

:06:17.:06:21.

other motoring matters connected with this, but it is the same sort

:06:21.:06:26.

of sentence someone could expect to get for drink and driving. You will

:06:26.:06:29.

know as you drive around you still see a lot of people using mobile

:06:29.:06:36.

phones as they try. The message is not getting through. I think it is.

:06:36.:06:40.

The more opportunities we get to get that message across, there is

:06:40.:06:44.

less people using their mobile phones. But you are quite right,

:06:44.:06:49.

people still do it. As a result, my officers will deal with people they

:06:49.:06:55.

seem. -- deal with people they see. We run campaigns where we focus on

:06:55.:06:58.

mobile phones, because they are a major contribution to collisions on

:06:58.:07:05.

the roads of Norfolk and the UK. You hear people say they do not

:07:05.:07:11.

know why they should not use their mobile phone. That is clearly wrong.

:07:11.:07:15.

In terms of scientific statistical evidence, it is shown that using

:07:15.:07:21.

your mobile phone, you are not in a position to physically control the

:07:21.:07:28.

vehicle. You are not able to control the vehicle whilst driving

:07:28.:07:32.

normally, or able to react to something that may happen in front

:07:32.:07:36.

of you. The message from you is you will catch as many people as you

:07:36.:07:41.

possibly can. Indeed, we will be using unmarked vehicles, but

:07:41.:07:48.

clearly people on their mobile phones you risk getting caught. --

:07:48.:07:52.

do risk. By the time they see their marked police vehicle, they will

:07:52.:07:58.

put the phone down, but we will have seen the man stop them. --

:07:58.:08:05.

seen them and stop them. Still to come, the goals from the Football

:08:05.:08:10.

League. Our special report comes from Essex, where landowners are

:08:10.:08:14.

introducing new security methods. And that cloudy day for tomorrow,

:08:14.:08:24.
:08:24.:08:25.

but the summer is not ready over -- the summer is not over.

:08:25.:08:29.

A businessman from Essex has become the latest victim of a telephone

:08:29.:08:33.

fraud at sweeping the region. Computer hackers get into the

:08:33.:08:36.

internal phone system of the company and make international

:08:36.:08:43.

calls. This company in Basildon thought phone hacking was something

:08:43.:08:51.

that happened to others. Those with sloppy telephone security have

:08:51.:08:56.

found it difficult. When they discovered �1,600 worth of

:08:56.:09:03.

unauthorised calls to Papua New Guinea, they knew something was up.

:09:03.:09:07.

I was trying to work out how the hackers had got into the phone

:09:07.:09:12.

systems. We thought they were bullet proof. It is Muratti times

:09:13.:09:21.

are annual phone use. -- it is four times. This phone hacking scam

:09:21.:09:25.

originate overseas usually. Computers are used to hack into the

:09:25.:09:31.

phone system. Criminals sell access to the phone lines. So that they

:09:31.:09:37.

are not have tracked, be routed through other countries. Each

:09:37.:09:43.

company picks up a separate bill. This Telecom security company

:09:43.:09:48.

specialises in software that prevents such fraud. They believe

:09:48.:09:51.

many organisations are simply unaware they are being hacked until

:09:51.:09:58.

it is too late. They are obliged to pay it because the phone calls came

:09:58.:10:05.

from their system. With schools and local authorities also falling

:10:05.:10:09.

victim to such attacks, the advice is to be vigilant and security-

:10:09.:10:17.

conscious. If your business is affected by that fraud, get in

:10:17.:10:24.

touch. You can phone or e-mail. A man appeared in court today over

:10:24.:10:28.

the death of a 43-year-old man in Norwich Jail. The attack happened

:10:28.:10:32.

at the Prince of Wales Road early on Friday. The man died from head

:10:32.:10:36.

injuries at the weekend. 27-year- old Ion Lacatus, who lives in

:10:36.:10:40.

London, was charged with manslaughter and has been remanded

:10:40.:10:44.

in custody. Later this week, the A- level results come out, and there

:10:44.:10:49.

has been a big increase in the application that universities. This

:10:49.:10:55.

is the last year before fees go up to a maximum �9,000 a year. It

:10:55.:11:00.

means competition for places will be stiff. The admissions office was

:11:00.:11:09.

busy at the University of Essex. On Thursday, the real rush will begin.

:11:09.:11:16.

They have had more applicants than in 2010. Obviously if they got

:11:16.:11:20.

their first choice, that is good, but they should become if they did

:11:20.:11:25.

not get the results, bring up the institution. Think about other

:11:25.:11:33.

courses, do your research. Across the East, over 4,000 people applied

:11:33.:11:40.

-- over 48,000 people applied. Some of the individual universities and

:11:40.:11:44.

paint a different picture. There has been a 17 % rise in the

:11:44.:11:49.

University of East Anglia. The University of Bedfordshire is up

:11:49.:11:58.

15.8 %. At Cambridge University, applications are down by 4.5 %.

:11:58.:12:04.

think it is a result of asking for the �9,000 per year. When the

:12:04.:12:11.

results came out, the students we made offers to were very successful.

:12:11.:12:16.

We think it was the results, we raised the bar on the results, and

:12:16.:12:22.

the entry standards were very high. The universities already have the

:12:22.:12:25.

A-level results, and they are working on the right now. The

:12:25.:12:28.

people who really want to know their grades will not find out

:12:28.:12:34.

until Thursday. A pensioner has been describing her ordeal after

:12:34.:12:39.

hanging upside down by one leg for more than a day. The 86-year-old,

:12:39.:12:43.

who lives in Suffolk, fell from a step ladder in her home. She was

:12:43.:12:53.

left hanging for 27 hours. Doctors in Ipswich Hospital saved her leg.

:12:53.:12:58.

I have seen on the news people in poor countries carrying babies to

:12:59.:13:03.

safety, and I thought if they can walk for days, I can wait here a

:13:03.:13:09.

while. But it did seem a long time. In the sport of trampolining, some

:13:09.:13:14.

of the world's best have been in our region. Japan's men's team have

:13:14.:13:20.

been trying out the facilities in preparation for the London Olympics.

:13:20.:13:25.

Whatever you do, do not try this at home, you will break your bed. This

:13:25.:13:35.
:13:35.:13:36.

is the Japanese No. 1. He helps to be in London next year.

:13:36.:13:44.

Trampolining is my life, the Olympics is my life. I have to

:13:44.:13:49.

compete at the London Olympic Games, and I have to win. The Japanese

:13:49.:13:54.

have brought three of their top men to Lowestoft. The are trying out

:13:54.:14:04.
:14:04.:14:06.

the facilities. -- they are. wanted his team to come and see how

:14:06.:14:15.

we would look after them. This gem is very clean and beautiful, good

:14:15.:14:21.

for training and trampolining. -- this gymnasium. The Japanese team

:14:21.:14:24.

impressed the crowd and looks certain to be among the medals in

:14:24.:14:28.

London. In case you thought they never make mistakes, sometimes they

:14:28.:14:38.
:14:38.:14:44.

Bailiffs could be just days away from evicting travellers from the

:14:44.:14:48.

big illegal site near Basildon. The operation is costing the local

:14:48.:14:51.

council and police millions of Pounds.

:14:51.:14:54.

The travellers are camped illegally and Dale Farm. They have been

:14:54.:14:58.

served with eviction notices and everything is now in place to make

:14:58.:15:03.

them move on. But, with the prospect of a forced removal, many

:15:03.:15:08.

landowners have decided to make their property more secure.

:15:08.:15:15.

Dale Farm - in just over three weeks' time, bailiffs could start

:15:15.:15:19.

evicting travellers from illegal pitches here. An estimated 100

:15:19.:15:22.

families could be looking for someone else to live. But where

:15:22.:15:26.

will they go? Councillors and farmers are worried that, if they

:15:26.:15:29.

do not protect their land, they could end up with Dale Farm on

:15:29.:15:35.

their doorstep. New padlocks and gates are appearing in our towns

:15:35.:15:41.

and countryside as the eviction edges ever closer. This farm is

:15:41.:15:45.

near Colchester, a good 25 miles or so from Dale Farm. The farmer is

:15:45.:15:49.

still worried because trouble has moved on to a nearby field

:15:49.:15:52.

illegally earlier this year. She explained what she has been doing

:15:52.:16:01.

to try to stop it happening again. We bar to the front of the field in

:16:01.:16:05.

an attempt to stop them coming through. There are so many of them

:16:05.:16:10.

that they have got to go somewhere. You see travellers coming round to

:16:10.:16:17.

look at the fields and others around here every weekend. We will

:16:17.:16:21.

not go! At Dale Farm, the travellers say

:16:21.:16:26.

they will not leave without a fight and, at if they are forced back on

:16:26.:16:30.

the road, they will find somewhere to pitch their caravans. They say

:16:30.:16:33.

there is a simple solution - let them stay at Dale Farm. It seems to

:16:33.:16:37.

wait for that. The council is adamant that the travellers have

:16:37.:16:40.

broken planning law and must be evicted, even if it will cost

:16:40.:16:48.

millions. Across the East Anglia, the gates are going up. We have a

:16:48.:16:52.

padlock and chain that have been welded and reinforced. We have a

:16:52.:16:58.

security device to make it more difficult to take the lock off.

:16:58.:17:03.

There is a hybrid stricter that will stop any vehicle or two metres

:17:03.:17:09.

high from coming on site. After August 31st, the bailiffs

:17:09.:17:15.

will move in. We will, of course, keep you fully

:17:15.:17:17.

up to date with developments at Dale Farm. If anything happens we

:17:17.:17:26.

will let you know. Tom Williams was amongst the vast

:17:26.:17:29.

away support at Wigan and he is here now.

:17:29.:17:32.

If you wondered what the manager goes through on match days, have a

:17:32.:17:36.

look at this. To say that Paul Lambert was animated would be a

:17:36.:17:41.

serious understatement. On show, just about every emotion. It is

:17:41.:17:45.

tiring even just watching him. Only another 37 Premier League games to

:17:46.:17:55.
:17:56.:18:02.

It is Saturday, it is match-day, a new season, new and challenging

:18:02.:18:11.

destinations. Don't there is Liverpool and Anfield. Norwich

:18:11.:18:21.
:18:21.:18:21.

kick-off in Wigan and this is Wigan Pier. On the Leeds and Liverpool

:18:21.:18:26.

Canal, in the last century and industrial Wharf, today Canary

:18:26.:18:30.

Wharf. We have got nothing to lose. We're not here to make up the

:18:30.:18:36.

numbers. We are looking forward to great away-days. As long as we come

:18:36.:18:40.

forth from the bottom, I am happy. I just hope that we stay above the

:18:40.:18:45.

relegation zone and survive for one year. They have never been to

:18:45.:18:48.

Manchester, Liverpool or Chelsea. It will be good fun taking them

:18:48.:18:54.

down. Have they been to Wigan? but we're looking forward to that,

:18:54.:19:02.

too. No doubt the orders were to keep

:19:02.:19:07.

things tight. Early on, Norwich managed that. After 20 minutes,

:19:07.:19:17.
:19:17.:19:22.

disaster. A far owl, a penalty and then Watson made no mistake. -- a

:19:22.:19:29.

foul. As Wigan had punished Norwich, on the stroke of half-time the

:19:29.:19:35.

Premier League newcomers did the same. Norwich rode their luck in

:19:35.:19:45.
:19:45.:19:47.

the second half. Watson came close. It was 1-1. I thought it was

:19:47.:19:51.

important not to get turned over here. We had to prove that we could

:19:51.:19:57.

compete. That is all you can ask for. We will do our best to try and

:19:57.:20:00.

stay in the league. First day, first journey, first

:20:00.:20:06.

point. Next Sunday, first home game against Stoke.

:20:06.:20:11.

Ipswich manager Paul Jewell says he has rejected a bid from Portsmouth

:20:11.:20:16.

for Grant Ledbitter. He has said he is happy to commit his future to

:20:16.:20:23.

the club. After a bright start away at

:20:23.:20:32.

Bristol, it switched had been brought back to earth at home. The

:20:32.:20:36.

first team conceded late on against Hull on Saturday. The difference

:20:36.:20:43.

was in defence, as Matty Fryatt shot past the keeper. A narrow

:20:43.:20:51.

defeat in a difficult and competitively. You cannot call any

:20:51.:20:56.

results with confidence this year. The teams are evenly matched and it

:20:56.:20:59.

is going to be like that, I feel, right through the season.

:20:59.:21:04.

After losing out on penalties in the Carling Cup during the week,

:21:04.:21:14.

Colchester were keen to make amends in their own back yard. They could

:21:14.:21:20.

not apply the killer instinct in not apply the killer instinct in

:21:20.:21:30.
:21:30.:21:33.

the second half. Colchester's unbeaten league run continues.

:21:33.:21:38.

The first goal came from the penalty spot. Accrington equalised

:21:38.:21:48.
:21:48.:21:57.

just before half-time after Glenn Ba Norwich and Peterborough, a full

:21:57.:22:01.

programme of action tomorrow. Coverage on your local BBC radio

sport website. In the UK we love our crisps. We

:22:11.:22:17.

munch our way through 9 billion packs every year. That is 150 bags

:22:17.:22:27.
:22:27.:22:28.

per person. The first recipe was created by George Crum in New York

:22:28.:22:32.

in 1853. He called them Sarat ogre chips. Did you know that some of

:22:33.:22:37.

the most popular crisps are made in Norwich? For our latest Made In The

:22:37.:22:47.
:22:47.:22:47.

East, Mike Liggins explains how Kettle make their chips.

:22:47.:22:56.

This is where the story begins, on this farm in North Norfolk. Kettle

:22:56.:23:01.

chips used about 500 million potatoes per year. This farm

:23:01.:23:06.

produces about half of that number. There are six different varieties

:23:06.:23:10.

and become out of the ground between July and October. They are

:23:10.:23:19.

highly specialised. There is a pretty tight specification we have

:23:19.:23:23.

to add here too. They are washed in water in these

:23:23.:23:33.

drums. In one of two cooking rooms, giant slicers cut the potatoes into

:23:33.:23:41.

16 frying machines. We are allowed to film some parts of the process

:23:41.:23:51.

but not a part of the process that kettled invented. The temperature

:23:51.:23:59.

of the friar will be around 150 degrees centigrade. After the chips

:23:59.:24:03.

are cooked, they are discharged and chant -- and transported through to

:24:03.:24:06.

the parking hall where the seasoning is added before the

:24:06.:24:14.

crisps are put in packets. The crisps them go through to

:24:14.:24:24.
:24:24.:24:26.

sorters. I camera spots the rejects and a jet of air blows them out. --

:24:26.:24:31.

a camera. In this department new flavours are

:24:31.:24:39.

invented. The company Canley has 13 seasonings. We have always been

:24:39.:24:42.

innovative as a business and it is coming up with those new things,

:24:42.:24:50.

coming up with the things that are now iconic, like balsamic vinegar.
