First tonight, it's emerged that the organhsers

:00:13.:00:15.

of a cancelled music festival in Colchester

:00:16.:00:17.

are seeking legal advice amid a clamour for refunds.

:00:18.:00:21.

The event was due to take place in the town's Castle Park

:00:22.:00:24.

but was cancelled at the last minute over safety fears.

:00:25.:00:29.

In Colchester today, there were hundreds of people feeling just the

:00:30.:00:32.

same as Rosie and her mum, Sandra ` frustrated, disappointed and angry.

:00:33.:00:38.

I just cannot believe that they d see kids disappointed like this

:00:39.:00:44.

and I know there was people coming from

:00:45.:00:46.

a long way away to watch the concert.

:00:47.:00:48.

Rosie, who is 15, had been rehearsing since June

:00:49.:00:50.

with other youngsters from the Debbie Miller School Of Dance.

:00:51.:00:54.

More than half a dozen other local dance groups have done the same

:00:55.:00:57.

But, late on Thursday, there came news that the evdnt,

:00:58.:00:59.

which would have featured acts such as Scouting For Girls, was off.

:01:00.:01:03.

It is something to do in the holidays as well.

:01:04.:01:07.

Like, our holiday is seven weeks, so it is a really nice day

:01:08.:01:10.

and lots of people and getting to listen to music

:01:11.:01:13.

and, yeah, the atmosphere would have been great.

:01:14.:01:16.

The event's organiser was the community group

:01:17.:01:18.

called I Am Music, which says on its website

:01:19.:01:20.

that it creates "unique platforms for the performing arts".

:01:21.:01:24.

The dance groups were told they each had to sell 70 tickets

:01:25.:01:27.

if they wanted to take part and that ticket money, it appears,

:01:28.:01:30.

This morning, we call at the home of the director of I Am Mushc.

:01:31.:01:38.

He instantly try to close it but then relented.

:01:39.:01:42.

I said I needed to ask some questions.

:01:43.:01:44.

He said he didn't know if or when the concert would be reorganised.

:01:45.:01:47.

He didn't and if or when people who had paid money

:01:48.:01:50.

He said the matter was in the hands of the solicitor.

:01:51.:01:53.

When I asked for the name of that solicitor,

:01:54.:01:56.

The borough council stepped in to stop the event,

:01:57.:02:00.

worried it would be neither safe nor secure.

:02:01.:02:02.

Also, there were no toilets being laid on for the crowds.

:02:03.:02:06.

The event had a licence for 8,500 people.

:02:07.:02:08.

and it is understood around 3,000 were sold.

:02:09.:02:19.

after being charged with a rape in Essex.

:02:20.:02:23.

The victim, in her 20s, was attacked in an underpass

:02:24.:02:25.

near the Broadmayne area of Basildon town centre just over a week ago

:02:26.:02:30.

has appeared before Chelmsford Magistrates' Court.

:02:31.:02:37.

The police watchdog has been called in

:02:38.:02:38.

after a crash in Ipswich Town Centre in which a biker died.

:02:39.:02:43.

It happened near the University Campus Suffolk

:02:44.:02:45.

He's been named as 20`year`old Rees Lungley.

:02:46.:02:49.

the Independent Police Complaints Commission,

:02:50.:02:52.

as officers were close to the scene of the crash.

:02:53.:02:57.

A 26`year`old man is critical in hospital

:02:58.:03:00.

after being hit by a car on the A140 in Suffolk.

:03:01.:03:04.

after the man had been dropped off by another car at Stoke Ash.

:03:05.:03:09.

He was taken to Ipswich Hospital then transferred to Addenbrooke s.

:03:10.:03:14.

Two former RAF jets put up for auction in Northamptonshire

:03:15.:03:18.

A 1976 Harrier jump`jet has been bought by a man from Essex

:03:19.:03:24.

A woman pilot bought a 1988 Tornado F3

:03:25.:03:32.

Silverstone Auctions said the sale was a "unique opportunity"

:03:33.:03:41.

We've had a couple of showers around today,

:03:42.:03:56.

nothing like the ones we will see tomorrow.

:03:57.:03:58.

But not all of us will see showers through the day tomorrow.

:03:59.:04:01.

We all run the risk of them and they will be quite heavx

:04:02.:04:04.

This evening is pretty fine and settled.

:04:05.:04:08.

Start to see a few showers just developing

:04:09.:04:10.

as we go through the night but a lot of dry weather.

:04:11.:04:13.

15 or 16 Celsius, temperatures down a notch

:04:14.:04:16.

on what we have seen, with slightly cooler, fresher whether arotnd.

:04:17.:04:19.

We do have a Met Office weather warning in force

:04:20.:04:21.

Not all of us in line for that warning but because we are likely to

:04:22.:04:27.

see some slow`moving and potentially torrential showers developing as we

:04:28.:04:30.

go through the afternoon, we do have that weather warning

:04:31.:04:33.

particularly towards the east and south.

:04:34.:04:37.

The key about the showers is that not only will they have lightning

:04:38.:04:43.

But there will be plenty of sunshine either side

:04:44.:04:47.

and that sunshine returns to us on Tuesday as well.

:04:48.:04:50.

Wednesday, as you can see, a bit cloudy

:04:51.:04:52.

We're back at 10:20pm tonight with all your late news and weather.

:04:53.:05:01.

I will be back at 10:25pm. Have a good evening.

:05:02.:05:10.

Topped temperatures down 5 degrees on yesterday and much lower humidity

:05:11.:05:15.

so the second part of the weekend has been much more comfortable. The

:05:16.:05:19.

coming few days, if we get sunshine it will be pleasantly warm. It's not

:05:20.:05:22.

a completely dried story because they will be showers dotted around

:05:23.:05:24.

and

:05:25.:05:25.
