:00:06. > :00:09.In Look East tonight: The weekend winter really bit. Snow

:00:09. > :00:14.and ice caused disruption on road and rail, though the main routes

:00:14. > :00:16.did stay open. Hello from Susie and me. Also

:00:16. > :00:23.tonight: After yesterday's fun, it was

:00:23. > :00:31.another day off for many schoolchildren across the region.

:00:31. > :00:39.We have had complete blocks that are under 2 ft of snow.

:00:39. > :00:44.A new operator, but the same old problems for rail commuters. And

:00:44. > :00:54.the Queen meets power people on the 60th anniversary of her accession

:00:54. > :00:55.

:00:55. > :01:01.to the throne. After a weekend of snow, it has

:01:01. > :01:05.been a day of disruption on road and rail. Children were given it a

:01:05. > :01:11.day at home as schools were forced to close. The major routes stayed

:01:11. > :01:17.open, but ice and snow made driving conditions difficult. In a moment,

:01:18. > :01:23.it we are in a critic -- gritting centre.

:01:23. > :01:28.This is a riverside park in Huntington. This is where people

:01:28. > :01:34.spontaneously gathered to enjoy the snow. In the gloom, it is an army

:01:34. > :01:38.of snowmen, but it causes big problems others. Many schools were

:01:38. > :01:43.forced to close, and in the rush hour, there was also a lot of

:01:43. > :01:49.trouble. After Saturday night's snowfall,

:01:49. > :01:54.the region was on the move again. In dense freezing fog, a school bus

:01:54. > :02:01.and two cars were involved in this accident. A passenger had to be cut

:02:01. > :02:06.free, but there were no serious injuries. Schools were closed. In

:02:06. > :02:12.Suffolk are, six schools turned pupils away, and in Haven Hill

:02:12. > :02:17.though headteacher said the school closure was due to an unsafe --

:02:17. > :02:27.unsafe site and parking conditions. In Cambridgeshire, 12 schools were

:02:27. > :02:30.

:02:30. > :02:35.closed. They rang me this morning and said, "can you help us out?".

:02:35. > :02:38.It was very difficult to turn it down. They could have done with a

:02:38. > :02:43.snow plough at Stevenage Football Club, where the pitch was being

:02:43. > :02:49.cleared with good old-fashioned elbow grease. I could have joined a

:02:49. > :02:53.gym or do this! Is a small community spirited. The midweek

:02:53. > :03:00.match subject to a pitch inspection tomorrow. In Northampton, the main

:03:00. > :03:07.routes were Clare, and a fault was the problem for drivers, one at

:03:07. > :03:11.this hospital, a consultant has told pedestrians to take care.

:03:11. > :03:18.the warnings go out to motorists. But they don't say anything about

:03:18. > :03:23.being careful on your doorstep, on pavements, in car parks. That is

:03:23. > :03:28.where people fall. With elderly patients, it is often a life-

:03:28. > :03:37.changing issue. They lose their independence, confidence. As the

:03:37. > :03:41.forecasters predicted 6 inches of snow, -- 6 inches of snow fell on

:03:41. > :03:48.Saturday night. In Sunday morning, this lorry driver was struggling to

:03:48. > :03:53.make progress. Some drivers simply abandoned their cars and walked

:03:53. > :03:58.home. The East of England and villains service say calls were up

:03:58. > :04:03.20% over the weekend. Megan was delivered by dad. The midwife

:04:03. > :04:09.couldn't make it because of bad weather. Neighbours stuck a path

:04:09. > :04:13.through the snow to get mum and baby to Basildon hospital. I am so

:04:13. > :04:20.glad mum and baby are doing well. I would like to shake the hands of my

:04:20. > :04:24.neighbours and buy them a drink for helping out. While the snow may

:04:24. > :04:29.have caused inconvenience for some, others, it was a chance to wrap up

:04:29. > :04:39.warm and have some fun. And with temperatures hovering above

:04:39. > :04:39.

:04:39. > :04:44.freezing, scenes like this may last for most of the week.

:04:44. > :04:50.Elie -- Ely college say they will be open tomorrow. Many other

:04:50. > :04:55.schools will be working to do the same. As this no turned to slush,

:04:55. > :05:01.and temperatures fall, icy conditions will make many roads and

:05:01. > :05:06.pavements are very slippery indeed. As we have seen, conditions have

:05:06. > :05:11.made driving hazardous, and that means more work for the police.

:05:11. > :05:17.Michael Spender's morning with Norfolk Police traffic officers.

:05:17. > :05:27.It is 7am and cold, but the major roads have been gritted, and the

:05:27. > :05:28.

:05:28. > :05:38.traffic is moving. But traffic cops are in a hurry. There is an

:05:38. > :05:40.

:05:40. > :05:45.obstruction on the A47. A vehicle has broken down. How why you, Paul?

:05:45. > :05:54.We cannot move it any further unfortunately. But recovery is

:05:54. > :05:57.coming out. Bob and Andy cannot take any risks. The lane is closed.

:05:57. > :06:02.They are looking for drivers who have not played this know from

:06:02. > :06:12.their cars. All right, Madam? Can you clean your car a bit better,

:06:12. > :06:12.

:06:12. > :06:17.please? The light, front and back, get this off. The front of your

:06:17. > :06:21.wipers start to win screened means you cannot see. Safety is paramount.

:06:21. > :06:27.Clear all this know of your car before you move. You could risk

:06:27. > :06:31.getting a ticket if you don't, or imprisonment if you kill someone.

:06:31. > :06:36.As the sun comes up, it road conditions improve. The car has

:06:36. > :06:43.taken away by the RAC, and Bob and Mandy, who were expecting a busy

:06:43. > :06:47.morning, know the rush hour could have been it much worse.

:06:47. > :06:53.The good news is that the major routes were kept open, despite

:06:53. > :06:59.third snow. That was because the gritters were out early doing their

:06:59. > :07:06.work. Let us go to Kevin in at Ipswich. It has been non-stop at

:07:06. > :07:12.this centre. There is no let up. The teams have been going out here.

:07:12. > :07:21.They will be out again in the early hours. At us talk to Matthew. You

:07:21. > :07:26.will be going out on the roads in early hours? We well. We will go to

:07:26. > :07:36.our priority one, followed by it our priority two network. Supplies

:07:36. > :07:42.a good. You are learning all the time as well. Yes, many of our

:07:42. > :07:47.roots are pre- gritted. We use of brine with the sort. It allows the

:07:47. > :07:52.sort to stick better to the road. It seems to be plaudits all round

:07:52. > :08:00.further work of your team. It is satisfying. There is a lot of hard

:08:00. > :08:05.work and preparation. We are pleased to have positive feedback.

:08:05. > :08:12.How other teams bearing up? They are exhausted, but raring to go and

:08:12. > :08:18.committed to dealing with this. other warning: Just because they

:08:18. > :08:25.road has been treated, don't go crazy.

:08:25. > :08:33.We can't say we were not warned - this was one they have forecasters

:08:33. > :08:40.predicted. A lot of snow fell We will start off with some amazing

:08:40. > :08:48.pictures. This was the snow falling at in a garden. He recorded 15

:08:48. > :08:52.centimetres, which is six inches! What exactly happened? On Saturday,

:08:52. > :08:58.we had the ongoing battle of mild edge under pressure from the West,

:08:58. > :09:03.and cold air from the east. But ours, it was the cold air which one.

:09:03. > :09:13.And as this rain pushed him from the West, it fell to snow. It was a

:09:13. > :09:23.wide band of snow that crossed. On Sunday, the main band had cleared.

:09:23. > :09:33.

:09:33. > :09:35.Is there more snow on the way? I We will be seeing some of your

:09:35. > :09:39.pictures later. Still to come tonight:

:09:39. > :09:41.How what you post on your social media sites could affect your job

:09:41. > :09:48.prospects. And Kim's been with the Queen on a

:09:48. > :09:52.very special anniversary. It has been a bittersweet day for the

:09:52. > :10:02.Queen, on the 60th anniversary on the day she came to the throne, she

:10:02. > :10:11.

:10:11. > :10:16.has attended two low key events in It has been it has been a difficult

:10:16. > :10:22.start for the newest rail operator in the region. Snow and ice have

:10:22. > :10:26.brought delays and cancellations. A new dawn on the railways - a

:10:26. > :10:32.Dutch company is now running the trains. Thousands of commuters head

:10:32. > :10:36.here, to Liverpool Street station in London. They complain of

:10:36. > :10:40.overcrowding and delays, and are desperate to see improvements.

:10:40. > :10:46.don't think it represents good value for money. If I want to get a

:10:46. > :10:52.fast train to London, we need a change. What are you hoping for for

:10:52. > :10:56.the new operator? Cleaner trains. This seeds and floors are filthy.

:10:57. > :11:05.It is OK most of the time, but when it is bad, it is bad. What do you

:11:05. > :11:11.think of the rail service? Is that a serious question?! I have to put

:11:11. > :11:16.up with the trials and tribulations every day. The trains a slow, they

:11:16. > :11:23.are uncomfortable and old fashioned. This is the man commuters hope will

:11:23. > :11:30.turn things around. He could have done without the weather. It is a

:11:30. > :11:38.challenging weekend, but today when very well. Most people came in with

:11:38. > :11:44.a reasonable delays. What difference can you make? What

:11:44. > :11:49.people will see is that we have 70 additional people on platforms and

:11:49. > :11:57.trains to provide customer-service to make a save and pleasant journey.

:11:57. > :12:01.Her Abellio's performance will be a monitored. Punctuality and

:12:01. > :12:06.reliability are paramount. Value- for-money it is about having a good,

:12:06. > :12:08.punk short journey, and getting a seat. Abellio said it would do

:12:08. > :12:12.everything it can to make short trains run on time during the

:12:12. > :12:15.Olympics. Essex Police say a schoolboy has

:12:15. > :12:18.been charged with attempting to rob a woman in Westcliff near Southend.

:12:19. > :12:23.A 38-year-old suffered a stab wound to her back during the incident in

:12:23. > :12:27.Balmoral Road on 30 January. A 15- year-old boy has been charged with

:12:27. > :12:31.attempted robbery and possession of an offensive weapon.

:12:31. > :12:34.The leader of the UK Independence Party has been in Norfolk today.

:12:34. > :12:38.Nigel Farage spoke to students at a local sixth form college in Great

:12:38. > :12:41.Yarmouth and had lunch with members of the local business community.

:12:41. > :12:49.He's addressing a meeting in the town tonight where he will claim

:12:49. > :12:53.that public opinion is moving in UKIP's direction. We have been it

:12:53. > :12:58.is saying, clearly and consistently, that the European question will

:12:58. > :13:02.impact on people's everyday lives, and beat open-door immigration

:13:02. > :13:09.policy will have implications for unemployment. Many people are

:13:09. > :13:11.saying, "you kept were right". Norwich City Council have started

:13:11. > :13:14.legal action today against anti capitalist protestors who have set

:13:14. > :13:17.up camp in Hay Hill. The Occupy Norwich campaigners have been given

:13:17. > :13:23.a deadline of Friday evening to leave or face eviction. They say

:13:23. > :13:33.they will not move. If they give us somewhere else to go, maybe we

:13:33. > :13:33.

:13:33. > :13:38.would consider it. Week might erect more tense or maybe a warehouse so

:13:38. > :13:40.we can do good for the community. Abnormalities in the brain may make

:13:40. > :13:43.some people more likely to become drug addicts, according to

:13:43. > :13:46.scientists at Cambridge University. Experts wanted to find out if drugs

:13:46. > :13:48.change the wiring of the brain, or if drug addicts are wired

:13:48. > :13:57.differently in the first place. They studied addicts and their

:13:57. > :14:01.siblings, and results suggest the condition can be inherited.

:14:01. > :14:08.Brothers and sisters who do not have addiction problems can tell us

:14:08. > :14:18.how they can overcome these problems. How do they manage self-

:14:18. > :14:21.

:14:21. > :14:24.He described it as the best performance since he became manager,

:14:24. > :14:28.Paul Lambert's at the same one despite both -- despite great

:14:28. > :14:32.injury problems. Despite the be shovel, City claimed their second

:14:32. > :14:36.green -- second clean sheet of the campaign.

:14:36. > :14:40.Norwich have rarely disappointed since he took charge. Last week's

:14:40. > :14:45.loss at Sunderland is as much a surprise as anything. To restore

:14:45. > :14:50.self-belief, a response was needed. The fans got it. The winner was

:14:50. > :14:57.crucial, but? They cost. The first man down suffered a hamstring

:14:57. > :15:02.injury. -- the when was crucial, but came at a cost.

:15:02. > :15:08.Another defender also got injured. No wonder Paul Lambert looks

:15:08. > :15:14.concerned. Widespread left the field, and Norwich boasted

:15:14. > :15:20.incredible spirit and talent. Grant hold should have put the game to

:15:20. > :15:26.bet, no matter, Anthony Pilkington reacted first to make it 2-0.

:15:26. > :15:32.Pilkington has made the game safe for Norwich City!

:15:32. > :15:40.We have two full backs to play centre half. They are not the

:15:40. > :15:44.tallest of lad. That puts them on the back foot. The desire and the

:15:44. > :15:48.weight they played the game was great. Fans return to Harrow Road

:15:48. > :15:52.today hunting for tickets, still buzzing from Saturday. It was

:15:52. > :15:58.absolutely fantastic. One of the best games I have ever seen at

:15:58. > :16:03.Harrow Road. The players they brought on did a fantastic job.

:16:03. > :16:07.think that is the one that really put us into the Premiership. Eight

:16:07. > :16:12.more points needed, that is all. And you are confident they can

:16:12. > :16:18.survive? Easily. It may not be too easily, but

:16:18. > :16:22.Norwich are certainly on track. Breathing space at last for Ipswich

:16:22. > :16:27.in the championship. There win over Coventry means they are 19th, 10

:16:27. > :16:31.points clear of the relegation zone. Coventry are rooted to the bottom.

:16:31. > :16:38.Jay Emmanuel-Thomas put town in front, before Coventry hit back and

:16:38. > :16:43.took the lead. Buoyed by last week's 5-1 win over West Ham. We

:16:43. > :16:47.Maarten's penalty was saved, and Michael Chopra scored the rebound.

:16:47. > :16:51.At which's won from chopper came five minutes into stoppage time.

:16:51. > :16:59.came back in the second half and I thought we were the best team in

:16:59. > :17:02.the second half. We dominated and had the best opportunities.

:17:02. > :17:06.League 2, Paul Sturrock was critical of his Southend players.

:17:06. > :17:12.Michael Timlin had put them in front in the first minute. David

:17:12. > :17:17.Martin then doubled the lead, but they all make managed a draw after

:17:17. > :17:20.their opponents scored twice in the second half. I am gutted for the

:17:20. > :17:25.supporters who travelled. We dominated the first half and then

:17:25. > :17:29.change their ideas in how we should play the game. Passing the ball in

:17:29. > :17:35.difficult conditions in the second half. We came off the pace and paid

:17:35. > :17:40.steely for it. We dropped points before the end of the season. We

:17:40. > :17:45.need to make sure that our home form improves. Our away form has

:17:45. > :17:48.not been the best. Add in Late Kick Off tonight, there is a special

:17:49. > :17:54.look at the role of sponsorship place in football. He can learn

:17:54. > :18:04.about its history and how it has changed the face of the game. BBC 1

:18:16. > :18:18.

:18:18. > :18:22.If you use Facebook or Twitter, are you worried about the amount of

:18:22. > :18:26.information you may have shared on them? And does it matter?

:18:26. > :18:29.sister programme Inside Out has been finding out if what you say

:18:29. > :18:35.about yourself and your internet footprint could stop you getting a

:19:07. > :19:10.on Twitter, as Laura concern over how what she shares may affect the

:19:10. > :19:14.career prospects? I have not really thought about it that much. I do

:19:14. > :19:18.think that I am fairly positive on all of the social media networks

:19:18. > :19:23.that I am on. I would not think that it would detract from the
