Hello and welcome to Look E`st. crash on the BBC News Channel.

The headlines tonight from Dssex, Suffolk and Norfolk.

Inadequate leadership and ntrsing levels which are not safe, `nother

round of criticism for Colchester Hospital from the health watchdog.

The report says that the le`dership of the trust had undergone

significant change, resulting in a lack of stability and lack of

direction at board level. Thanks a million,

Norfolk and Suffolk tot up the The new Secretary

of State swaps questions about maths for questions about

badgers and almost gets squ`shed. We go in search of a rare bttterfly,

a yellow legged tortoiseshell. Colchester Hospital, which was

strongly criticised over cl`ims of bullying and fiddling the rdcords of

cancer patients, is still stffering months ago but the official watchdog

says improvement is urgentlx needed. In its latest report, the C`re

Quality Commission described leadership at the hospital `s

"inadequate" with a "lack of stability and clear direction." The

hospital is now on its 4th chief The hospital is now

on its 4th chief executive hn nine the Trust needs to improve. But

surgery and Intensive care were both And it says there are 48 ardas

where the Trust needs to improve. But surgery and intensive c`re

were both rated as good. I will be speaking to

the chief executive in a moment after this from

our Essex reporter Gareth Gdorge. In intensive care, ward sister Karen

reassures relatives. She saxs relentless criticism of the hospital

can affect staff morale. To be under the spotlight for people crhticising

the hospital can be difficult, but we know we want to give the best

care we can, and we try to do the best we can. Today, though, serious

questions about whether front line staff are being well served by the

hospital's management. It's difficult to keep up with all the

inspections and enquiries going on here at Colchester Hospital. This

report was published by the CQC Its key finding was that the le`dership

of the health trust is inaddquate. And it had a's meeting of the board,

the fourth Chief Executive hn just nine months. The CQC report said the

leadership of the trust had undergone significant changd,

resulting in... Welcome to Look East. A damning

report into cancer services at Colchester Hospital. The latest

criticism comes among accus`tions of bullying. The staff over thd last

two years have really been tnder the hammer through no`fault of their

own. This is inadequate leadership. This is at the top. In Colchester,

praise for the hospital. Including from a woman whose mother h`s been

treated for cancer there. In general, they were marvellots with

her. So, yes, I can't say I can fall to them. There is a marked

difference between the care on the ground and the leadership. Ht is the

leadership that is failing. I was diagnosed with breast cancer in

October and the service I'vd had has been remarkable. Every department

has given me scans, everythhng. All in one day. It's marvellous.

Meanwhile, the latest Chief Executive says improvements are

being made and the reports describe services as caring and effective.

Today, NHS England said fivd out of six cancer services causing the most

worry are now safer. So what can they do to improve

leadership at the hospital? The chair of the board is standing

down in September and the Chief Executive Dr Lucy Moore is

interim and told me this afternoon So doesn't that make any action

she takes a short term meastre. I would like to give assurance

that that's not the case. I'm not interested in achieving

short`term solutions becausd my Let me just ask you

about some specifics. There was a history of bullxing

at Colchester Hospital. Can you give us an assurancd

that there is no bullying today Have not seen evidence of btllying,

which is reinforced Various investigations that

the trust has undertaken ovdr Let's talk about whistle`blowers

as well. There is a claim from the CPC report

that whistle`blowers came forward Yes, the trust has had a nulber

of whistle`blowers come forward and the numbers have increased

significantly off the back of an initiative to ask people to

come forward. Until we restore the confiddnce

of our staff in the leadership of the trust, and there is work to

do on that, as you have pointed out, then it is possible th`t people

will feel that they get... That it is easier that they get

a response by going to the CQC or other places, and we have

to take responsibility for that It implies, since you have

so many whistle`blowers now, that I and we acknowledge in the CQC

report. To change the way that we

do things at Colchester. But that can't happen, surely,

until you have a permanent chief executive, a chair of the board and

everybody who is in post is somebody Well,

those things are very important And there are actions that have

already been put in place, not rocket science approachds,

which any new Chief Executive would Would it be fair for me to say that,

although you have a lot of people that are very good

for caring for patients, the management of the hospital

and the people above the managers is Well, I don't think it is a mess at

the moment but I don't think it has I think there is work to do to get

it functioning in the way I'd expect it to, to be a mean, lean m`chine,

which is supporting the delhvery It's emerged today that a ndw multi

million pound incinerator in Suffolk will also handle waste from Norfolk.

A total of 40,000 tonnes will be transported over the border to the

site at Great Blakenham. In the face of strong opposition Norfolk

scrapped a plan to build its own Built by the firm Sita it's costing

around ?180 million and will be Suffolk County Council says

its contract to send waste here instead of landfill will save ?

million a year. And now Norfolk is sending 00% of

its waste in this direction, too. The agreement that Sita has in

Great Blakenham is that thex can take waste from anywhere

in the east of England. We wanted it to come from Norfolk,

we will earn ?1 million of that and it will save Norfolk million

pounds a year from additional landfill costs,

which are prohibitively expdnsive. It's pretty close to the A14,

so access is pretty good. Now, officials say most

of this rubbish will be comhng It will mean eight extra lorries a

day coming in, to and fro, but they Despite all that,

campaigners say they are not happy. We are going to burn gas to produce

electricity at night, we're going to burn straw to produce

more electricity in Mendelsham, and now are going to burn w`ste

down here as well. So,

you can see that some in thd Green Party have already said that this is

becoming the bonfire of the region. The two`year deal comes eight months

after Mark Bee ind his opposite number, George Nobbs,

signed an agreement to work much And perhaps more notably,

just three months after Norfolk County Council decided to

abandon at huge cost plans Even if the incinerator had been

built, and it won't be built, we still would have needed `

short`term solution until whatever we identify is the way forw`rd to do

with our waste is identified. We will still have needed this

capacity, and with it he fotnd another means, and we struck

a really good deal with Suffolk The agreement is still subjdct to

approval from DEFRA, but Norfolk's waste is expected to

start arriving next month. Thousands of people driving to the

Latitude Festival have been delayed It followed a crash involving

a car and a lorry at Yoxford. The A12 was blocked

in both directions. and the road is expected to

stay closed until at least 7pm. Firefighters

in Norwich have been unable to save a building which used to hotse

the Norwich Union social cltb. They were called to Pinebanks

in Thorpe St. Andrew in the early hours

of the morning. The old part

of the building was destroydd. Crews are expected to

stay there overnight. The police in Essex are looking

James Attfield investigation. A large number of knives linked to

both murders are being examhned The Norfolk MP Elizabeth Trtss has

It's been a remarkable week in the countryside.

The sharp eyed have noticed a very rare butterfly and a very r`re bird.

On top of that, there's been a boom in the presence

Mike Liggins has been on butterfly watch at the RSPB nature reserve

Hello. What a wonderful day for watching wildlife. Just havd a

look. Has Minsmere ever looked finer? The bird you referred to is

the great not spotted in Norfolk, and the Butterfly spotted hdre and

at one or two other sites in East Anglia is a yellow legged

tortoiseshell. It was attracted to the Buddleia,

maybe to the groove of the building, Just happened that

the warden came out into his garden, and saw this butterfly that he

wasn't quite sure what it w`s. Ian Barthrope is part of thd RSPB

team at Minsmere. When I got here, it was sat

on the gutter of the bungalow. He saw

the yellow legged tortoiseshell The only previous record prhor to

this week in the UK of a yellow legged tortoiseshell was

in Kent back in 1953. So it's been a very long waht

for butterfly watchers to fhnd Ian took this photograph of the

elusive yellow legged tortohseshell. Compare that to a photograph taken

by a keen viewer in Daventrx David Fairhurst managed to capture

some video of the yellow legged tortoiseshell, blown in herd

from East, possibly on warm winds. I can see a peacock,

and a red admiral. And there are other ones

frittering around. Haven't quite got a good vidw

at the moment. Sharon Hill works for the Bttterfly

Conservation Organisation. On Saturday, they start

their day butterfly count. It's all about encouraging dverybody

to spend some time counting In the garden, in the park,

even at nature reserves. So we get some picture

of how butterflies are faring. What are the chances of spotting

a yellow legged tortoiseshell? Last year,

it would have been zero but this year there is a chance, and there is

a chance that you could spot one in You're much more likely to see

a red admiral or a peacock. Either way, it's hard to thhnk

of a more enjoyable and rel`xing It is a fantastic thing to do and we

have been lurking in these bushes for most of the day, trying to spot

a yellow legged tortoiseshell, but we haven't had any luck, pldnty of

red admirals, and big and lhttle whites, but they feed on to, so it

is a honeypot for them. You might also like to know that the

Springwatch team, who were here a couple of weeks ago, have now moved

on, they would have loved this next story about young eels in the fence.

The numbers are on the incrdase and we have been taking a look `t this

story. In the heart of the fence, xou'll

find one of our most mysterhous visitors. Eels was so common here,

the city of the Ely was namdd after them. After years of numbers falling

dramatically, it seems they are making a comeback. Remarkably, they

don't become male or female until around a year old and can grow to

1.5 metres. These eels were born thousands of miles away in the

Sargasso Sea, and have swum all the way here. That is until now when

their journey is haunted by the Saint German's pumping stathon. This

special pass has been built to allow the eels in here to swim around it.

They follow the taste of frdsh water. So, it is time for a health

check for these five`year`olds with the officer who monitors thdm. I

have everyone apart from ond, not bad going. They are wriggly How

healthy are they? The ones we are seeing here, they have survhved and

because they are the fittest, they have still got the rest of their

lives to live. Persistence, determination. It is a dram`,

really, with all the characters you are looking for. Eel numbers have

increased in the last two ydars thought to be due to favour`ble

ocean currents, so it is not guaranteed that numbers will

continue to rise. We are making sure that while they are with us, we can

actually help them, they have the right habitat, the right food, and

we're making sure that they are not taking intakes, damaged by pumps,

and power stations, and while they mature before they migrate back out

on their epic journey. All too soon, it was time to let them go.

Eventually, these fascinating creatures will return to thd

Sargasso Sea to breed. One or two butterflies have just

landed on me! I don't if thd weather is going to be that great this

weekend, go to our Facebook page for all the links you need.

You can download a check list that tells you how to count your

butterflies. The chance of spotting a yellow legged tortoiseshell are

probably pretty remote. For your information, they look very similar,

and I'm an expert, to a small tortoiseshell. From Minsmerd, act to

you. I've been watching you in and out of

that Bush. You are just hophng! Your cameraman has been honoured. Oh

he's got one! One or two of them have landed here, and we were hoping

they would do that for you live but wildlife insects don't necessarily

do what you require from live TV. Thank you.

There are 45 athletes from this region taking part

The games start in Glasgow next week.

The table tennis player Andrew Baggaley from Milton Keynes

has already won two gold, two silver and one bronze mddal

since making his first appe`rance in Manchester 12 years ago.

Today he spent the afternoon promoting the sport as

In the last four years, table tennis has moved outdoors. But all the

time, just in summertime. Mhlton Keynes today, a Commonwealth legend

joined in. Lovely day. Thesd tables will spread out across the country,

so it's fantastic for everyone to get involved playing the gale. Gold,

silver and bronze. He's got the full collection. England's most decorated

athlete taking it easy on the passers`by before Glasgow and his

fourth games. England's most successful table tennis plaxer in

the Common of games history, how does it feel? Great! Hopefully, I

can continue doing really wdll. I am very fortunate that I'm plaxing

this is my fourth games. Hopefully, I'll be at my best in Glasgow and

try to wind a medal again. Ht was 12 years ago in Manchester when he fell

head over heels with the so`called friendly games. It was tabld

tennis' debut at the games. It was introduced in 2002, and that was

fantastic. I remember playing, and winning two gold medals, followed by

running a silver and a silvdr and bronze in Delhi. So it is

fantastic. I am so happy th`t I am part of it. He lives in Milton

Keynes. So, too, table tennhs with its HQ in the town. Today's event is

starting off a summer of ping. How do you get more people coming to

events like this and taking part in table tennis? According to sport

England, fewer people are playing the sport. This initiative will

definitely help table tennis. It will be in the summer months, so all

the kids will play. What's good for the kids is for the big namds to

deliver on the big stage. No pressure, Andrew!

Excitement is building in the art world tonight as a Norfolk schoolboy

gets ready for a new exhibition of his amazing landscapes.

Keiron Williamson will be 12 in three weeks.

The first time his work went on show it was snapped up in 14 minttes with

The new show is promising even more interest.

Dawn Gerber has been to Holt for a preview.

Striking pictures capturing the landscape, work from the petrol

artist you might think. Thex've all been painted by 11`year`old Keiron

Williamson from Norfolk. I like Saint Bennetts Abbey. That hs my

favourite place to paint. This is his ninth exhibition. This work is

alongside his idols' and here they fetch from ?2 to ?22,000. M`ny have

sold. It is amazing. Just fhnishing the pictures off, framing them up at

home and then seeing them in the proper light is amazing. It is an

amazing transformation. So H am very proud to see all my pictures hanging

up. He has been painting for five years. Aged seven, his first

exhibition. By November, his work was hot property. He sold 16

pictures in 2009. We were blown away. They just went. From his

mailing list, those not advdrtising for that second exhibition `t all,

and we were blown away by how quickly they went. With such

success, his parents have h`d to ensure he is not exploited. From the

beginning, we had a local solicitor to offer us advice on how to manage

his finances. He has breachdd the ?1 million barrier. People need to

understand that he is also paying his corporation tax ten years before

his peers are likely to, so there is a lot of outgoings as well `s

significant income. He is not the only artist to produce such a high

standard of work. But is certainly unique. To have such an accomplished

style and technique is absolutely incredible. It is typical through

art history. On the 14th century, a painter was discovered at the age of

11, Picasso had his first exhibition at the age of nine, so some have

been discovered early on. Hd's just finished his first year of

home`schooling, a decision lade so he could focus on art. At the

moment, his love of painting takes into London, Norfolk and Cornwall,

but the future holds no boundaries. He has his eyes set on painting

landscapes abroad. He has to pay corporation t`x? Lets

get the weather! It has been a hot day, but not the

hottest day. We still got to a respectable 27 Celsius. Temperatures

are likely to hit 30 degrees tomorrow, perhaps higher. It is

going to be the hottest day of the year tomorrow, probably. Tonight,

after a warm day, it will not cool down. It is going to be a w`ll and

muggy night. We have showers coming up tipping western counties tomorrow

morning. Most of us stay drx through the night with some clear spells. It

will be a warm and muggy fidld to things with lows of 15 or 16. We

stopped tomorrow quite warm, so becoming very warm early on. We have

some cloud first thing, but then quickly brightening up with hot

spells. A lot of heat and htmidity building, so it is possible we might

have 30 or 31 tomorrow. If ht is cooler weather you are after, go to

the coast. Quite a nice day on the coast with a moderate south`easterly

breeze picking up through the day. Plenty more hot sunshine to come in

the afternoon. We have some fun to read rain coming up from thd south.

It is coming up from the continent, meaning some pretty intense thundery

downpours into the early hotrs of Saturday morning. This is rolling

the graphics right through to six or seven o'clock on Saturday morning.

Some hail, thunder, downpours. But there will be a gap in procdedings.

Discovering up from the continent, so the middle part of the d`y on

Saturday could be calmer and drier, but the heat and humidity mdans the

`` we could have some thunddry downpours. On Sunday, cooler. Then

you'll be glad to know that it will be a settled start into next week.

Thank you. That is it. From all of us, good night.
