In Look East: This woman died seven hours after being discharged from | :00:12. | :00:17. | |
Milton Keynes hospital. Now more consultants are being recruited. | :00:17. | :00:21. | |
Hello from Susie and me. Also tonight: Petrol stations see | :00:21. | :00:25. | |
massive queues but they say it's not time to panic. | :00:25. | :00:28. | |
The mystery of maths. Why we need more students who will study it | :00:28. | :00:33. | |
longer. And, I am in the Olympic stadium in | :00:33. | :00:37. | |
Barcelona with the Essex athlete Sally Gunnell reliving golden | :00:37. | :00:47. | |
:00:47. | :00:50. | ||
Olympic memories. First tonight, the death of a woman | :00:50. | :00:53. | |
just seven hours after she was discharged from hospital. | :00:53. | :00:59. | |
Tina Bilen, who was 52, had a ruptured aorta. Now a report into | :00:59. | :01:02. | |
her death has called for more accident and emergency consultants | :01:02. | :01:08. | |
at Milton Keynes Hospital. At an inquest today the coroner recorded | :01:08. | :01:18. | |
:01:18. | :01:18. | ||
a narrative verdict. # When there's no getting over... | :01:18. | :01:21. | |
Born in Basildon, Tina and her husband travelled the world | :01:21. | :01:25. | |
entertaining before finally coming back to be with family in Milton | :01:25. | :01:31. | |
Keynes. She was a very fun-loving girl. Bubbly, amazing, a beautiful | :01:31. | :01:35. | |
singer. We haven't got no closure, they're saying about this won't | :01:35. | :01:39. | |
happen to anyone else, but why didn't they give my daughter a | :01:39. | :01:45. | |
chance? They never did. Late on Tuesday evening last November Tina | :01:45. | :01:54. | |
suddenly collapsed and was taken to A&E. She was sent home at 1.00am. | :01:54. | :01:57. | |
Around 9.00am the next morning she was found unresponsive, rushed back | :01:57. | :02:00. | |
to hospital. She was declared dead a few hours later. | :02:00. | :02:06. | |
Here on the left the junior locum doctor who discharged here. Because | :02:06. | :02:09. | |
the ECGs didn't change he thought they were normal for her, he failed | :02:09. | :02:13. | |
to recognise her neck pain as a symptom of her underlying heart | :02:13. | :02:17. | |
problem. Tina had suffered a tear in a major artery to her heart,over | :02:17. | :02:22. | |
night blood had leaked out around it, literally preventing it beating. | :02:22. | :02:26. | |
A consultant in charge was never called. He says he doubts he could | :02:26. | :02:31. | |
have saved her. In my experience in Milton Keynes, last nine years or | :02:31. | :02:37. | |
so, I have seen about three or four, so it's fairly rare. Even if you | :02:37. | :02:43. | |
had gone off to a unit to have fairly complex surgery, her chances | :02:43. | :02:49. | |
of survival was not actually - not a long, 30% mortalality rate even | :02:49. | :02:53. | |
with surgery for this this condition. As clinical director the | :02:53. | :02:56. | |
doctor's own report into what happened calls for more consultants | :02:56. | :03:00. | |
and for all high risk patients to be signed off by a consultant | :03:00. | :03:03. | |
before they can be discharged from A&E. | :03:03. | :03:10. | |
The hospital says it's accepted the findings. There is another post | :03:10. | :03:13. | |
being advertised, consultant, at the moment, with the aim we will go | :03:13. | :03:19. | |
to ten consultants which will give 18-20-hour cover each day, seven | :03:19. | :03:22. | |
days a week. For the family the appointments come too late. They | :03:23. | :03:32. | |
:03:33. | :03:33. | ||
say she was denied her chance no matter how slim. | :03:33. | :03:36. | |
The threat of a strike by tanker drivers has led to growing concern | :03:36. | :03:39. | |
over fuel supplies in this region. The message from the industry is | :03:39. | :03:43. | |
clear - there is no need to panic buy. But there is evidence the | :03:43. | :03:45. | |
message is being ignored, with queues and shortages at some | :03:45. | :03:48. | |
filling stations. Our chief reporter Kim Riley is at a petrol | :03:48. | :03:54. | |
station near Norwich airport. I am actually at Drayton, and this | :03:54. | :03:57. | |
independent station here is particularly busy tonight, people | :03:57. | :04:02. | |
queuing up. I guess this region of all regions really is utterly | :04:02. | :04:04. | |
dependent on road travel, there isn't the infrastructure to keep us | :04:04. | :04:08. | |
off the roads. We have to travel by car or bus to live our daily lives | :04:08. | :04:12. | |
and the very thought of a petrol shortage has been enough to push up | :04:12. | :04:16. | |
demand for unleaded by 45% yesterday according to independent | :04:16. | :04:21. | |
retailers and for diesel by over 20%. That was enough to run some | :04:21. | :04:29. | |
petrol stations dry. At this Esso station in Norfolk bus | :04:29. | :04:33. | |
brisk today, -- business brisk today. Yesterday they ran out of | :04:33. | :04:38. | |
fuel altogether. Customers this lunchtime told me they certainly | :04:38. | :04:42. | |
weren't panic-buying. I have actually come here to get petrol | :04:42. | :04:50. | |
for my mower, to be honest! If people keep it, take it steady, we | :04:50. | :04:54. | |
should be fine. I fill up once a week and this is my day, I thought | :04:54. | :04:59. | |
I would carry on as normal. I am only here because I want some. | :04:59. | :05:07. | |
are not going to fill the tank? I just got �20, it should last the | :05:07. | :05:14. | |
week. You are not panic buying today? No, no. If everybody do that, | :05:14. | :05:19. | |
everybody will lose out, I think. People not to use it, two of them | :05:19. | :05:24. | |
now filling up tanks. That don't help people, filling up the gallon | :05:24. | :05:28. | |
cans, stupid. At Morrisons supermarket in independence long | :05:28. | :05:32. | |
queues were snaking back from the petrol station, with mixed messages | :05:32. | :05:36. | |
coming from Government spokesman lots of people keen to top up their | :05:36. | :05:42. | |
tanks. At the much smaller service station outside independence they | :05:42. | :05:46. | |
were checking levels in their underground tanks. Demand at the | :05:46. | :05:52. | |
pumps has been up on normal. It's been busier than usual. People are | :05:52. | :05:57. | |
filling up as opposed to putting usual five or ten pounds in. We are | :05:57. | :06:03. | |
running low, but we have a delivery today, so that isn't kasing niqab | :06:03. | :06:08. | |
great problems at the problem -- isn't causing us any great problems | :06:08. | :06:13. | |
at the problem. I don't expect that they will end | :06:13. | :06:18. | |
up being action, but if there is action then the rules are that | :06:18. | :06:21. | |
Unite would have to notify us and give us a minimum of seven days' | :06:21. | :06:25. | |
notice and in that period of time I think there will be emergency | :06:25. | :06:29. | |
procedures brought in to ensure that fuel flows and the country | :06:29. | :06:34. | |
isn't stopped. Back at the Washbrook service station a tanker | :06:34. | :06:39. | |
arrives to replenish stocks. Talks may yet avert a strike, but there | :06:39. | :06:43. | |
is nervousness with the Easter holidays looming the pumps could | :06:43. | :06:47. | |
run dry. Back here at Drayton let's talk to | :06:47. | :06:53. | |
Andrew Lawrence, regional chairman of RMI petrol. You operate a number | :06:53. | :06:57. | |
of garages here, what's the sort of messages coming back about the | :06:57. | :07:02. | |
state of the fuel supplies? state at the moment is that we are | :07:02. | :07:07. | |
extremely busy. The deliveries are just about coping with this supply, | :07:07. | :07:11. | |
but obviously if the more the panic happens, the more problems we are | :07:11. | :07:15. | |
going to get in running out of stock. You told me about one you | :07:15. | :07:20. | |
have problems. Sheringham, we have had a lot of volume through there | :07:20. | :07:23. | |
the last couple of days. A tanker isn't due until Friday. Therefore, | :07:23. | :07:28. | |
I am afraid tomorrow we are going to run dry. You have had clear | :07:28. | :07:32. | |
evidence of panic buying, you have seen it? Yes, indeed. We are | :07:32. | :07:38. | |
running up, certainly over 45% on unleaded and diesel is over 25%. | :07:39. | :07:43. | |
This is constituting a problem with our supply. We have a pattern of | :07:43. | :07:47. | |
delivering and obviously if we are increasing the volume prior to | :07:47. | :07:49. | |
these deliveries, obviously we are going to be running short between | :07:49. | :07:56. | |
that period. Very briefly, your advice to people, motorists? Don't | :07:56. | :08:02. | |
panic. There is plenty of supply, if everyone works with a | :08:02. | :08:07. | |
responsible attitude towards the filling of their cars. Keep calm. | :08:07. | :08:11. | |
Keep calm. That's the advice. We shall have to see if that's what | :08:11. | :08:15. | |
happens. Back to you. If you are likely to be affected by | :08:15. | :08:19. | |
the fuel strike, we would like to hear from you. You can get in touch | :08:19. | :08:23. | |
via phone, e-mail, Facebook or Twitter. | :08:23. | :08:28. | |
Still to come tonight: An Olympic gold medallist goes back to the | :08:28. | :08:32. | |
scene of her greatest triumph and Jonathan Park with an pike hopeful | :08:32. | :08:37. | |
of the future. I am with one of the country's most | :08:37. | :08:41. | |
exciting equestrian talents and the secret to her success is Austin | :08:41. | :08:51. | |

Powers. Find out more after the news where you live. | :08:52. | :08:56. | |
Four men have been jailed for a total of 15 years for conning two | :08:56. | :08:59. | |
elderly people out of most of their life savings. The man and woman | :08:59. | :09:02. | |
from Essex handed over almost �160,000 for work on their homes, | :09:02. | :09:05. | |
which should have cost a fraction of the price. Alex Dunlop joins us | :09:05. | :09:12. | |
live from Essex. Well, both victims are described as | :09:12. | :09:15. | |
elderly. They're housebound and they're vulnerable and that's why | :09:15. | :09:21. | |
they were targeted. Christopher Barns was the main beneficiary from | :09:21. | :09:26. | |
this deception and fraud and Daniel Tutor, among six men to be | :09:26. | :09:29. | |
sentenced today. Seven years ago they approached the first victim, a | :09:29. | :09:34. | |
man in his 70s and demanded thousands of pounds to cut his | :09:34. | :09:38. | |
hedge. That was work he didn't ask to be done. He was described as a | :09:39. | :09:42. | |
man by his neighbour as a prime candidate to be conned. He came to | :09:42. | :09:49. | |
dread the arrival of the men's vans and that he was too infirm to even | :09:49. | :09:53. | |
get to the door to inspect the work, if any was done. Over five years he | :09:53. | :09:58. | |
handed over �113,000 to Barns and Tutor and it was established in | :09:58. | :10:02. | |
court they overcharged by 94%. The second victim was a woman who is | :10:02. | :10:07. | |
now in her 90s, just to give you an example, she was charged �15,000 | :10:07. | :10:13. | |
just to have a small path laid. Over seven months she handed over | :10:13. | :10:18. | |
cheques totalling �43,000. Very few friends and family that are | :10:18. | :10:24. | |
immediately available to them to help them. They're very vulnerable. | :10:24. | :10:31. | |
The fact that people have preyed on these people over a long period of | :10:31. | :10:37. | |
time persistently, well, it's des pickible is the -- despicable. | :10:37. | :10:40. | |
defendants seemed relaxed during the hearing. The judge told them | :10:40. | :10:44. | |
that they had taken advantage of these two people. He said they had | :10:44. | :10:48. | |
fleeced them and when one was sucked dry they moved on to the | :10:48. | :10:53. | |
next. Barnes was sentenced to five years and nine months, his assets | :10:53. | :10:58. | |
seized. Tudor sentenced to four and Logan. Two others were given | :10:58. | :11:08. | |
:11:08. | :11:08. | ||
suspended sentences. Nearly 1,000 jobs are under threat | :11:08. | :11:11. | |
after a food supply company went into administration. DBC | :11:11. | :11:13. | |
Foodservice, which has a base in Newmarket, is a privately owned | :11:14. | :11:16. | |
company. It sells leading brands and its own range of products and | :11:17. | :11:23. | |
has 12 centres across the UK. A man who was working 60 feet up a | :11:23. | :11:26. | |
church tower in the centre of Ipswich has been hit in the back of | :11:26. | :11:30. | |
the head by an air rifle pellet. It happened at St Mary Le Tower Church | :11:30. | :11:33. | |
earlier this afternoon. Dan Appleby, who was treated in hospital, says | :11:33. | :11:38. | |
the pellet went 4cm into his head. A court in Poland has withdrawn an | :11:39. | :11:41. | |
arrest warrant on a single mother from Thetford. Natalia Gorchovska | :11:41. | :11:44. | |
was facing extradition over a minor drugs offence in Poland six years | :11:44. | :11:48. | |
ago. She is now waiting for final | :11:48. | :11:55. | |
confirmation from British police. The turkey producer Bernard | :11:55. | :11:57. | |
Matthews has announced a big investment in Norfolk and Suffolk. | :11:57. | :12:00. | |
It will safeguard more than 2,000 jobs. Last year, the company made a | :12:00. | :12:05. | |
loss after the cost of turkey feed rose by 50%. It's now back in | :12:05. | :12:11. | |
profit. It's been a rocky road for Bernard | :12:11. | :12:17. | |
Matthews, five years ago an outbreak of birdflu at its factory | :12:17. | :12:21. | |
knocked sales for six. In the aftermath jobs had to be cut across | :12:21. | :12:25. | |
the operation. Then two years ago Bernard Matthews, the company | :12:25. | :12:30. | |
founder, died. More recently, the price of Turkey feed has risen by | :12:30. | :12:34. | |
50%. One reason why the company made a loss last year. But under | :12:34. | :12:39. | |
new manager director Rob Meres, Bernard Matthews is now in profit. | :12:39. | :12:42. | |
Turkey consumption is rising and new investment is to be made in | :12:42. | :12:46. | |
Norfolk and Suffolk. We just announced plans for �3 million of | :12:46. | :12:50. | |
investment here at our facilities. We also have planned investment for | :12:50. | :12:54. | |
another �4 million subject to planning, at our facilities in | :12:54. | :12:58. | |
Holden and that with our ongoing levels of investment is �10million | :12:58. | :13:02. | |
increase versus prior years. That investment will safeguard more than | :13:02. | :13:06. | |
2000 jobs at farms and processing plants in the region. And while the | :13:06. | :13:10. | |
company is still having to pay dearly for its animal feed, there | :13:10. | :13:13. | |
is a a silver lining for local farmers. The group buys nearly all | :13:13. | :13:23. | |
its wheat from local growers. MPs from Norfolk, Suffolk and | :13:23. | :13:26. | |
Cambridgeshire met the Prime Minister last night to push for | :13:26. | :13:29. | |
better road and rail links. They want improvements to the A14 and | :13:29. | :13:32. | |
the A47. They told David Cameron it would help unlock the economic | :13:32. | :13:39. | |
potential of the region. The former Norwich City football | :13:39. | :13:42. | |
director, seen here on the right, who used to run the Great Yarmouth | :13:42. | :13:45. | |
Pleasure Beach, has died. Jimmy Jones, who was 73, died in hospital | :13:45. | :13:49. | |
last night. He was awarded the MBE for services to sport in 2009. He | :13:49. | :13:52. | |
also invested heavily in Norwich City when he was a director and | :13:52. | :14:01. | |
vice-chairman between 1985 and 1995. In Football, in the Championship | :14:01. | :14:04. | |
Ipswich finally played their game with Middlesbrough last night. The | :14:04. | :14:14. | |
:14:14. | :14:15. | ||
game was abandoned earlier this year when the pitch became frozen. | :14:15. | :14:21. | |
Second half sublooked taeupbg rows for Boro. | :14:21. | :14:28. | |
When Thomas was brought down in the box leadbeter stepped up to take | :14:28. | :14:32. | |
the penalty but the power was matched by the goalie. Within five | :14:32. | :14:38. | |
minutes Boro went in front. Leadbeter was keen to make amends. | :14:38. | :14:43. | |
This This stunning strike earned Ipswich a draw to go 15th. | :14:43. | :14:47. | |
In league one after five draws on the bounce it looked like | :14:47. | :14:51. | |
Colchester might take all three points. Thefrp in front after 11 | :14:51. | :15:01. | |
:15:01. | :15:06. | ||
minutes. But the saddlers hit back Through the second half the hosts | :15:06. | :15:11. | |
sealed their win, inflicting Colchester's first defeat in ten. | :15:11. | :15:21. | |
:15:21. | :15:25. | ||
3-1 it finished. Coming up: Back to Barcelona with | :15:25. | :15:33. | |
Sally Gunnell. Nice and sunny in Barcelona. | :15:33. | :15:37. | |
Now how good are you at maths? Most of us aren't good enough, according | :15:37. | :15:39. | |
to the Norfolk MP Elizabeth Truss. That's why she's calling for | :15:39. | :15:42. | |
changes to the way the subject is taught in our schools. | :15:42. | :15:51. | |
Here's a problem to try. It's a quadratic equation from a GCSE exam. | :15:51. | :15:56. | |
Here it is: What is the value of X? And here's | :15:56. | :16:02. | |
a clue - there are two answers. We'll let you know if you're right | :16:02. | :16:05. | |
in a moment, but first this from Mike Liggins. | :16:05. | :16:09. | |
All right, today we are doing an investigation into the wing span | :16:09. | :16:16. | |
and the height of a human. This teacher is teaching a year ten | :16:16. | :16:21. | |
GCSE maths class at Thetford. The school recently advised forever a | :16:21. | :16:24. | |
maths teacher but the application wasn't up to standard, so the | :16:24. | :16:29. | |
school went abroad to Canada. your wing span is larger than your | :16:29. | :16:33. | |
height, then what are you going to be classified as? A monkey. You are | :16:33. | :16:37. | |
going to be a monkey. There is a shortage of maths teachers across | :16:37. | :16:43. | |
the country. That's only part of a complex equation. What I see a lot | :16:43. | :16:50. | |
of in Norfolk is employers who are appeals for engineering looking for | :16:50. | :16:53. | |
those with that ability. There is a strong need for it in the jobs | :16:53. | :16:57. | |
market. At Thetford there was a good deal of measuring and | :16:57. | :17:03. | |
recording. And it did look like fun. It's good, because with maths it's | :17:03. | :17:06. | |
always one answer you have to work towards. I like that because you | :17:06. | :17:12. | |
know what what you have to get to. I like maths because it's fun. I am | :17:12. | :17:20. | |
good with numbers. I want to be an accountant. If we are not great at | :17:20. | :17:27. | |
maths what's the answer? Schools being given the inventive to make | :17:27. | :17:31. | |
that happen. We should give a premium for students studying maths | :17:31. | :17:35. | |
to the school to enable them to afford to recruit new maths | :17:35. | :17:41. | |
teachers. From friends of mine who I studied with, quite a few went | :17:41. | :17:44. | |
into safety type jobs or accountancy, and so we need to get | :17:44. | :17:48. | |
more people to come and enthuse our students. Back with year ten the | :17:48. | :17:52. | |
results of the measuring confirmed that none of the students are | :17:52. | :17:57. | |
monkeys. Indeed, all of them are humans. What's more, all of them | :17:57. | :18:01. | |
quite like maths and are thinking of going on to study the subject at | :18:01. | :18:09. | |
A-level. And the answer so that equation? X | :18:09. | :18:14. | |
can be four or minus three. We put the full workings on our Facebook | :18:14. | :18:17. | |
page. Although they do it differently these days to the way I | :18:17. | :18:23. | |
remember! There's been lots of scribbling in | :18:23. | :18:33. | |
:18:33. | :18:34. | ||
the newsroom this afternoon, lots of sums, some right, most wrong! | :18:34. | :18:38. | |
All the talk at the moment is about London 2012, which is 121 days away. | :18:38. | :18:41. | |
But for some of our young athletes the focus is four years ahead to | :18:41. | :18:45. | |
2016. Alex Hardwick is 21 years old, she lives in Essex and has just | :18:45. | :18:48. | |
been named as Young Pprofessional of the Year in the sport of | :18:48. | :18:51. | |
dressage. She's one of our big hopes for Rio. Jonathan Park has | :18:51. | :19:01. | |
:19:01. | :19:06. | ||
Its origins are on the battlefield when horse and rider needed to be | :19:06. | :19:11. | |
at one or they didn't come home. These days dressage is an Olympic | :19:11. | :19:15. | |
sport where victory matters but your life doesn't depend on it. | :19:15. | :19:19. | |
try to blank everything else out and concentrate on the moment. You | :19:19. | :19:23. | |
are dealing with another living, breathing thinking creature, so you | :19:23. | :19:27. | |
can prepare as much as possible and imagine every possible situation, | :19:27. | :19:33. | |
but you have to do it in the moment. You can put him into halt. When | :19:33. | :19:36. | |
London's over we will all be talking about Rio and Alex could be | :19:36. | :19:41. | |
one of the names on everyone's lips. Training at home with mum Sally, | :19:41. | :19:45. | |
also her coach. When was the first time you put Alex on a horse? | :19:45. | :19:49. | |
first time on a horse was when she was about four months old on the | :19:49. | :19:53. | |
path behind you and the pony tried to buck her off and luckily her | :19:53. | :19:55. | |
father played rugby for the first team and he managed to catch her. | :19:55. | :20:03. | |
He didn't speak to me for about six hours after but Alex chuckled. | :20:03. | :20:06. | |
Alex's been named Young Professional of the Year, the man | :20:06. | :20:11. | |
in her life is called Casper. He is everything a girl would want. | :20:11. | :20:16. | |
call him my chunky monkey. He is a true gentleman. He was a guy you | :20:16. | :20:19. | |
would want to date him, he would open car doors and buy you flowers. | :20:19. | :20:22. | |
Never expect you to go Dutch or anything like that, you know. But | :20:22. | :20:26. | |
no, he is a typically nice guy and he is more than willing to do the | :20:26. | :20:31. | |
work. Next year is a big year for Alex because she moves up to senior | :20:31. | :20:34. | |
competition but you know what, she's not scared of anyone, and nor | :20:34. | :20:37. | |
is Casper. When it comes to competitions | :20:37. | :20:43. | |
they've got a secret weapon, it's the Austin Powers theme tune. Cue | :20:43. | :20:49. | |
mum. MUSIC. We have gone for light foot | :20:49. | :20:54. | |
tapping, happy music. It fits him so well. He dances along to it. | :20:54. | :20:58. | |
It's really happy. I thought, got to have that one. | :20:58. | :21:02. | |
Coming up for Alex and Casper, the European Championships in | :21:02. | :21:10. | |
Switzerland. Dressage has never been so groovy. | :21:10. | :21:16. | |
Long way away, four years. We will be following her progress. In the | :21:16. | :21:25. | |
distance. Hard work for them. The ultimate goal for any athlete is to | :21:25. | :21:28. | |
win an Olympic Gold medal. One person who knows exactly how that | :21:28. | :21:31. | |
feels and what it really means is Essex athlete Sally Gunnell. Sally | :21:31. | :21:34. | |
won a gold medal in the 400 metre hurdles 20 years ago in Barcelona. | :21:34. | :21:37. | |
Yesterday she went been back to stadium with our Olympic reporter, | :21:37. | :21:45. | |
Shaun Peel. This time they go. Hemmings very | :21:45. | :21:48. | |
slowly away. Sally Gunnell has gone quickly... She had been training | :21:49. | :21:54. | |
for this for 12 years. 53 seconds later in the Olympic stadium in | :21:54. | :21:58. | |
Barcelona Sally Gunnell was a gold medal winner, and a national | :21:58. | :22:02. | |
heroine, a career and life defining moment in time. Sally can't | :22:02. | :22:06. | |
remember too much about what happened here 20 years ago, it's | :22:06. | :22:10. | |
all a bit of a blur, which is why she's back in Barcelona to fill in | :22:10. | :22:20. | |
:22:20. | :22:27. | ||
# This used to be my playground # This used to be my childhood | :22:27. | :22:37. | |
:22:37. | :22:38. | ||
It had to be done, forget the Barcelona tourist trail, the only | :22:38. | :22:43. | |
place Sally really wanted to see was the Olympic stadium. And even | :22:43. | :22:48. | |
though her memory was a little sketchy before, it soon came back. | :22:48. | :22:53. | |
It's weird. It's really weird coming back. Very strange. I | :22:53. | :22:56. | |
actually don't remember any of the race. There was one little key | :22:56. | :23:03. | |
point on the 8th hurdle behind us, a trigger point, if I was up there | :23:03. | :23:06. | |
I knew I would win. That's the only part of the race. I don't remember | :23:07. | :23:11. | |
the gun going but I really remember the lap of honour and trying to | :23:11. | :23:17. | |
take everything in. It was like - I couldn't take everything in. I was | :23:17. | :23:21. | |
on such a high. Sally is the only woman who's managed to hold the | :23:21. | :23:27. | |
European, world, Commonwealth and Olympic 400 metre hurdles titles at | :23:27. | :23:31. | |
the same time. But it's the Olympic one she holds dearest. My whole | :23:31. | :23:36. | |
life it just changed overnight, I crossed that line and that was it. | :23:37. | :23:44. | |
It changed to a whole new life and a very exciting life. I have done - | :23:44. | :23:48. | |
I I wouldn't be standing here, 20 years later, I wouldn't be doing | :23:49. | :23:54. | |
this and that! And how lucky I have been. | :23:54. | :23:59. | |
She's long since retired but is still as fit as a fiddle and given | :24:00. | :24:03. | |
half a chance to turn the clock back what wouldn't she give to hit | :24:03. | :24:07. | |
that kind of high again, but in a London Games just a few hurdles | :24:07. | :24:11. | |
from home. Everyone days do I ever miss it and I have always said no, | :24:11. | :24:15. | |
been there, done that. But seeing everybody preparing now and seeing | :24:15. | :24:18. | |
them getting in shape and little moments, there is part of me for | :24:18. | :24:25. | |
the first time wished I could be in that stadium. | :24:25. | :24:33. | |
# Wishing you were here with me. # It's great. A moment changes your | :24:33. | :24:38. | |
life and you can't remember a thing about it. Just a blur. At least she | :24:38. | :24:45. | |
has the pictures. Last night lots of you phoned to | :24:45. | :24:49. | |
say the Union flag being waved by the easyJet boss Carolyn McCall was | :24:49. | :24:51. | |
upside down. And, of course, you are right. The broader diagonal | :24:51. | :24:57. | |
white stripe should be at the top, on the side nearest the flagpole. | :24:57. | :25:02. | |
What we would say is it wasn't our flag, it wasn't our flagpole and we | :25:02. | :25:07. | |
were not waving it! That's fair, isn't it? Don't blame | :25:07. | :25:13. | |
us is what you are saying. It's been another day of summery | :25:13. | :25:17. | |
conditions, take a look at these temperatures. Across the region | :25:18. | :25:21. | |
from Cambridgeshire, Norfolk, Suffolk, a number of locations | :25:21. | :25:30. | |
getting above 20C. Our winner today though was Milledenhall. | :25:30. | :25:35. | |
Of course it's all down to a huge area of high pressure that's | :25:35. | :25:38. | |
stretching across us out towards Europe at the moment, bringing this | :25:38. | :25:42. | |
fine weather. If we look at our satellite image you will see clear | :25:42. | :25:46. | |
skies above us. The reminder that it's still March, of course, will | :25:47. | :25:51. | |
be it will get quite chilly tonight. We could see mist patches forming | :25:51. | :25:56. | |
in one or two spots. It looks as though most places will hover just | :25:56. | :25:59. | |
above freezing. But it could be in one or two places we get down to | :26:00. | :26:03. | |
freezing itself. A widespread ground frost expected with those | :26:03. | :26:08. | |
values. In terms of the winds they stay light and they'll be west to | :26:08. | :26:11. | |
north-westerly in direction. A fairly chilly start to tomorrow. | :26:11. | :26:15. | |
Early mist to clear but it should soon warm up as the sunshine gets | :26:15. | :26:20. | |
going. It looks like another fine, warm sunny day. At times that | :26:20. | :26:30. | |
sunshine perhaps turning hazy as we get high level cloud moving in. | :26:30. | :26:34. | |
Still well above average. You will notice with that breeze around the | :26:34. | :26:39. | |
coast perhaps a high of 13C. Just slightly cooler, but again still | :26:39. | :26:44. | |
above average. Through the afternoon it could just turn cloudy | :26:44. | :26:51. | |
in parts of north Norfolk. Looking ahead, a little change on the way. | :26:51. | :26:55. | |
That's to do with the positioning of our high pressure. It moves | :26:55. | :26:59. | |
towards the Atlantic to the west. Sets up a northerly flow and it | :26:59. | :27:03. | |
will bring with it some cooler conditions. But I must stress, | :27:03. | :27:08. | |
still above average. Two more days of fine, warm weather. Friday it | :27:08. | :27:12. | |
will turn increasingly cloudy. So, some parts of the region in the | :27:12. | :27:15. | |
north and east particularly, could find you are a bit cloudy. Into | :27:15. | :27:20. | |
Saturday, a shower symbol there, but don't get too excited, we are | :27:20. | :27:25. | |
not out of the drought. Mostly dry, an odd chance of light rain. Cooler | :27:25. | :27:33. |
