:00:14. > :00:19.Up In The programme tonight: Three party goers are left fighting for
:00:20. > :00:25.their lives after an event at a Bedfordshire farm turns violent
:00:26. > :00:29.Shot on the way to work. Tonight in his first TV interview victim Atif
:00:30. > :00:39.Ali talks of the moment that almost cost him his life. I was told by a
:00:40. > :00:43.doctor `lost something like 18 bags of blood.
:00:44. > :00:45.East to east. The local companies working hard to build export links
:00:46. > :00:47.to China. And the village that's been going
:00:48. > :01:01.bonkers for conkers. Good evening. First tonight: It
:01:02. > :01:02.began as a party and ended with three people fighting for their
:01:03. > :01:05.lives. A major police investigation is
:01:06. > :01:10.under way this evening after a series of stabbings which detectives
:01:11. > :01:13.are treating as attempted murder. It happened in the early hours of
:01:14. > :01:17.Sunday morning after hundreds of people turned up at a party in a
:01:18. > :01:20.rural barn in Begwary, a village near St Neots on the
:01:21. > :01:32.Bedfordshire`Cambridgeshire border. Neil Bradford is there for us this
:01:33. > :01:36.evening. Behind the police cordon, the aftermath of a party that has
:01:37. > :01:41.come to an abrupt end is clear to see. The ground is strewn with beer
:01:42. > :01:50.cans and beer bottles, deflated balloons. This marquee is partially
:01:51. > :01:54.collapsed. Things turned sour around 2:30am in Sunday morning. Four young
:01:55. > :01:59.men were stabbed. In their dozens, they came here to
:02:00. > :02:03.party. Hours after arriving, many found themselves at the centre of a
:02:04. > :02:07.crime scene. Four men in their 0s were stabbed in the early hours of
:02:08. > :02:11.Sunday morning. Police were only alerted more than an hour after the
:02:12. > :02:16.attacks. Three of the young men are fighting for their lives in
:02:17. > :02:21.hospital. The organised event was advertised on social media sites. It
:02:22. > :02:27.is not the farmer was not aware it was taking place. Over 200 people
:02:28. > :02:33.turned up to the isolated location. Detectives want all partygoers to
:02:34. > :02:38.come forward. We want to speak to anybody who was there. If you were
:02:39. > :02:42.at that event, please talk to us. We don't mind the reason you whether
:02:43. > :02:49.what you were doing, but if you have any information, please get in
:02:50. > :02:53.touch. Tonight, police remain at the scene as they continue their
:02:54. > :02:59.investigation into why this apparent celebration turned so violent.
:03:00. > :03:02.Two men have been arrested on suspicion of attempted murder, but
:03:03. > :03:08.police believe there may be three offenders, all in their late 20s.
:03:09. > :03:13.They are keen to trace a blue Vauxhall Vectra car that was seen
:03:14. > :03:17.here at the party and later at Bedford Hospital. There were more
:03:18. > :03:20.than 200 people at this party on Saturday night into Sunday morning.
:03:21. > :03:23.Police say they are not interested in whether the people should have
:03:24. > :03:29.been here why they were here, they just need them to come forward. They
:03:30. > :03:35.can do so ominously through the number.
:03:36. > :03:38.` ` through the Crimestoppers number.
:03:39. > :03:41.A man seriously injured in a shooting as he travelled to work has
:03:42. > :03:44.given his first television interview for the BBC Crimewatch programme.
:03:45. > :03:48.27``year`old Atif Ali from Luton needed seven operations after he was
:03:49. > :03:51.shot in the leg in May. It's still not clear why he was targeted, but
:03:52. > :03:55.detectives hope a reconstruction broadcast tonight will give them new
:03:56. > :04:01.leads. Jo Black reports. It began M any other morning
:04:02. > :04:06.commute, but for Atif Ali, it nearly cost him his life. Five months ago,
:04:07. > :04:15.the trainee accountant was shot in his leg. In his first television
:04:16. > :04:25.interview on Crimewatch tonight the 27`year`old recalls the events of
:04:26. > :04:29.that day. I just went to rob the bumper to save there was any damage.
:04:30. > :04:39.As I was getting back to my car I heard a bang. A CCTV camera records
:04:40. > :04:44.the silver Audi. He is being followed by a black Audi and the
:04:45. > :04:48.silver Mondeo. Police are yet to trace the car or a man seen leaving
:04:49. > :04:54.the area. They have released these images in the hope of tracing them.
:04:55. > :04:57.Atif Ali is at a loss as to why his journey to work ended in such a
:04:58. > :05:05.dramatic fashion. He hence family have offered a ?15,000 reward for
:05:06. > :05:09.information. I am confident that there are people out there who know
:05:10. > :05:19.who has done this, and why. I would ask those people to come forward and
:05:20. > :05:25.contact the police. Detectives say Atif is lucky to be alive, but he is
:05:26. > :05:29.left with life changing injuries. I was told I lost something
:05:30. > :05:37.approximately around 18 bags of blood. Atif is making good progress
:05:38. > :05:40.in his recovery. He hopes detectives can soon say the same about their
:05:41. > :05:43.hunt for those responsible. Officers investigating the murder of
:05:44. > :05:49.Micah Urqhart from Luton have launched a new appeal for
:05:50. > :05:51.information. The 19`year`old was found with fatal injuries on
:05:52. > :05:56.Hastings St on Friday September 13th. He died at the scene.
:05:57. > :06:00.Bedfordshire Police are trying to discover where the teenager was in
:06:01. > :06:04.the hours leading up to his death. He was last captured on CCTV at a
:06:05. > :06:12.corner shop on Chapel Street, close to where his body was found.
:06:13. > :06:16.Opponents of a big new housing development in Cambridgeshire handed
:06:17. > :06:20.in their official objections today. They're against plans for 3,500 new
:06:21. > :06:23.homes on Bourn Airfield, homes that South Cambridgeshire district
:06:24. > :06:26.council says are needed. In the next 20 years, up to 40,000 new homes
:06:27. > :06:29.could be built across Cambridge and South Cambridgeshire. In addition to
:06:30. > :06:34.the 3,500 homes planned at Bourn Airfield, 9,000 houses could be
:06:35. > :06:37.built at Waterbeach. And there's already a plan in place to create
:06:38. > :06:49.Northstowe, a whole new town, with up to 10,000 homes there. Behind the
:06:50. > :06:54.smiles, serious concerns. Objections to the plans for a new development
:06:55. > :07:02.of homes. The counsellor in charge of planning that some of the
:07:03. > :07:07.protesters today. If this is ` ` is this a familiar cry of not in my
:07:08. > :07:17.backyard. That is unfair. We are saying, draw the line somewhere
:07:18. > :07:22.10,000 houses is effectively in Newtown, in a row. Much of the
:07:23. > :07:26.opposition is from people in the surrounding villages. There is a
:07:27. > :07:29.shortage of homes in Cambridgeshire, and with thousands
:07:30. > :07:33.of new jobs being created, there will be an even greater demand in
:07:34. > :07:41.future. That is the site all the fuss is about. People opposed to say
:07:42. > :07:45.look up close cities hear. They fear that the two will expand and
:07:46. > :07:50.eventually merge, and effectively create a new town. The other
:07:51. > :07:59.proposal is to create a new town of 9000 homes on disused barracks. Many
:08:00. > :08:02.people are opposed to that. Their opinions are important to was, but
:08:03. > :08:07.we have to get the balance. We need houses. They have got to go
:08:08. > :08:15.somewhere. We are going to upset some people, we know that, but we
:08:16. > :08:18.are listening. The public consultation has now closed. The
:08:19. > :08:25.council says it will consider all the responses and make any changes
:08:26. > :08:27.to it plans over the next year. They've spent decades fighting to
:08:28. > :08:34.protect services and tonight campaigners in Royston say they ve
:08:35. > :08:38.finally saved their local hospital. Last summer, wards at the site on
:08:39. > :08:41.London Road were closed and a question mark hung over the future
:08:42. > :08:44.of outpatient facilities. But after a meeting with MPs on Friday, the
:08:45. > :08:48.NHS has said it's drafting new plans for the site. It's likely that it
:08:49. > :08:59.will include clinics, NHS beds, a care home and a GP surgery. This is
:09:00. > :09:03.good news. It is a step forward in the right direction. There is a good
:09:04. > :09:09.way to go yet. We have had meetings with the NHS. There have been very
:09:10. > :09:16.good. They have listened to what we said and reconsidered the original
:09:17. > :09:22.plan. They are willing to change. They could mean the difference
:09:23. > :09:26.between life and death. Every year 60,000 people in the UK have a heart
:09:27. > :09:31.attack while going about their daily business. For many, a defibrillator
:09:32. > :09:34.is used to revive them. Now Bedfordshire Fire Service has become
:09:35. > :09:42.the first in the country to install the life`saving equipment in public
:09:43. > :09:50.buildings across the county. In Bedfordshire, every firefighter is
:09:51. > :09:56.shown how to use defibrillators An automated voice takes them through
:09:57. > :10:01.it step`by`step. Now the service is helping the public at their hands on
:10:02. > :10:06.the machines as well. Placed in boxes outside village halls, fire
:10:07. > :10:12.stations and even inside their old telephone box. If people needed it
:10:13. > :10:16.for heart conditions, it could definitely be helpful. There
:10:17. > :10:24.reconstructions with it and people to ring, so yes, you would give it a
:10:25. > :10:27.go. In these times, I am sure there are other things it would be
:10:28. > :10:34.worthwhile for the money to be spent on. Once you dial 999, the operator
:10:35. > :10:41.will give you the location of the nearest box. The Fire Service is
:10:42. > :10:50.doing this because we have focused for the last decade on saving lives.
:10:51. > :10:58.Why would we not want to do something about our nation's biggest
:10:59. > :11:03.killer? The Fire Service and Borough Council have spent ?80,000
:11:04. > :11:10.installing them. You have around 5% chance of surviving a cardiac arrest
:11:11. > :11:14.without a defibrillator. Chest compression is raised up to 12%
:11:15. > :11:25.With a defibrillator, it is raised to 50%.
:11:26. > :11:28.Will people use it? I think so. Nearly 13 have been installed. The
:11:29. > :11:38.yellow boxes will appear in more public places soon.
:11:39. > :11:42.The Olympic javelin thrower Goldie Sayers from Cambridgeshire is one of
:11:43. > :11:45.a number of high`profile GB athletes to lose their lottery funding for
:11:46. > :11:48.next season. Sayers came fourth at the Beijing Games in 2008 but
:11:49. > :11:51.struggled with injury at London 2012. UK Sport, the body which
:11:52. > :11:53.distributes the funding, has narrowed its criteria. That means
:11:54. > :11:56.only athletes considered medal contenders for the Rio 2016 Olympics
:11:57. > :11:57.are eligible. Previously, the emphasis had been on the likelihood
:11:58. > :12:01.of making a final. summing up the case tomorrow
:12:02. > :12:19.morning. There is a lot more to come on Look
:12:20. > :12:26.East tonight. We will have all the action from the world conker
:12:27. > :12:29.Championships. As you may have seen, the Chancellor
:12:30. > :12:32.George Osborne is leading a delegation of political and trade
:12:33. > :12:35.figures to China. The visit is designed to encourage more trade
:12:36. > :12:41.between the UK and the world's second biggest economy. Here in the
:12:42. > :12:45.east, we're the main route for Chinese goods into the UK through
:12:46. > :12:47.the port of Felixstowe. But as our business correspondent Richard Bond
:12:48. > :12:53.reports, the challenge now is to sell British products back to China.
:12:54. > :12:57.We think of China as a source of cheap imports, it is and they flow
:12:58. > :13:05.into the UK through Felixstowe on their way to our shops, but China
:13:06. > :13:10.also buys from Britain. Ransomes Jacobson in Ipswich makes commercial
:13:11. > :13:14.mowers for golf courses. The growth of the sport in China has opened up
:13:15. > :13:18.a whole new market for this long established business. We already
:13:19. > :13:24.sell millions of pounds worth of machines into China. It is predicted
:13:25. > :13:29.to be a growth market with over 1000 courses in the next ten years,
:13:30. > :13:33.potentially. We think we are well positioned to capitalise on that so
:13:34. > :13:38.China could become one of our largest markets. Exports to China
:13:39. > :13:54.from the Eastern region are growing fast, up 9% in the last year.
:13:55. > :14:00.China's new rich want to buy cars like Jaguars and land Rovers, good
:14:01. > :14:04.news for staff in this factory who make suspension units. They have
:14:05. > :14:08.just introduced a night shift to keep up with demand. I think in the
:14:09. > :14:12.Western countries we have heard for a long time there was a growing
:14:13. > :14:16.middle class in China and that market would be opened up and the
:14:17. > :14:21.middle class would be able to afford some of the products we have enjoyed
:14:22. > :14:26.in the west for quite a while. I think that is driving sales growth
:14:27. > :14:32.now. It is not just suspension units that end up in Jaguars and land
:14:33. > :14:37.Rovers bought by prosperous consumers in China. This British
:14:38. > :14:41.factory in Linton is owned by the Chinese as well. Chinese investors
:14:42. > :14:47.owned quite a few of our regional assets. UK power networks which
:14:48. > :14:54.distribute electricity to our homes, the port of Felixstowe, Essex
:14:55. > :15:00.and Suffolk water. In trading terms, China holds the advantage
:15:01. > :15:08.over us, they sell a lot more to us than we sell to them. This mower is
:15:09. > :15:19.going to Felixstowe to be shipped to China.
:15:20. > :15:22.Just to let you know, Look East is planning its own broadcast from
:15:23. > :15:25.China to report on that growing trade link. If you are currently
:15:26. > :15:30.doing business with China and you'd like to tell us about it, do get in
:15:31. > :15:33.touch. You can phone, send an email or contact us through social media.
:15:34. > :15:36.We look forward to hearing from you. Churches in Essex are to help
:15:37. > :15:39.villagers get better access to the Internet by having transmitters put
:15:40. > :15:42.on their steeples. Up to 100 churches in the Diocese of
:15:43. > :15:44.Chelmsford could be used to boost broadband speeds. For hundreds of
:15:45. > :15:48.years, village churches have given solace and sanctuary. Now some are
:15:49. > :15:55.about to provide something thoroughly modern as well. This is a
:15:56. > :15:59.village near Colchester and the Internet connection here is
:16:00. > :16:08.painfully slow but the church could be about to bring the village
:16:09. > :16:16.superfast broadband. The Government aims to get superfast broadband to
:16:17. > :16:23.90% of us, but more raw rural areas might miss out. This company aims to
:16:24. > :16:29.put transmitters on the steeples of churches making it available to
:16:30. > :16:32.everyone. The equipment we use is about the size of a child's pencil
:16:33. > :16:39.case. It should not have any impact on the church and in some instances
:16:40. > :16:43.we even pop facades around the equipment so it will blend. I think
:16:44. > :16:49.this is a case of the church keeping in step with modern times. The
:16:50. > :16:54.church warden here says the village's broadband signal does need
:16:55. > :16:58.to be improved. I always call it narrowband and that is what we have
:16:59. > :17:03.got. A lot of people in the village are running businesses, very often
:17:04. > :17:11.small businesses from home. There is also the farmers and these people
:17:12. > :17:17.desperately need broadband. Up to 106 churches could eventually have a
:17:18. > :17:20.transmitter on the steeple. Next tonight: Food. And, more to the
:17:21. > :17:23.point, just how safe are the products we buy from the
:17:24. > :17:25.supermarkets? It's a subject being covered on tonight's Inside Out
:17:26. > :17:36.programme. Simon Newton's been looking at the findings.
:17:37. > :17:38.Thanks David. The recent horse meat scandal focused attention on where
:17:39. > :17:44.our food comes from. Tonight, Inside Out looks at the growth of so`called
:17:45. > :17:48.food fraud. The team look at how it's on the rise and the East
:17:49. > :17:52.Anglian scientists at the forefront of combating it. We talk to Tesco
:17:53. > :17:55.about the horse meat scandal and the chances of it ever happening again
:17:56. > :17:58.and we discover how even humble honey can be tampered with. There
:17:59. > :18:02.are three different ways you can fraudulently sell horny. One is
:18:03. > :18:06.using imported honey and selling it labelled as British when it is
:18:07. > :18:11.clearly not. You can also mix honey with corn syrup. There have been
:18:12. > :18:17.reports of honey detected with corn syrup and on each so it is actually
:18:18. > :18:22.a mixture. The third way is actually just feeding these sugar syrup,
:18:23. > :18:36.which creates a kind of honey like substance but it has no pollen in
:18:37. > :18:39.it. Well the programme also examines how Trading Standards officers like
:18:40. > :18:42.the one I met today are under increasing pressure to test the
:18:43. > :18:45.provenance of food at the same time as their budgets are being slashed.
:18:46. > :18:48.We have to be intelligence led to make sure we can do more with less
:18:49. > :18:50.resources and that means looking at the intelligence in the
:18:51. > :18:55.marketplace, the history and the trends that we have dealt with. We
:18:56. > :19:00.have liaised with the food standards agency to identify areas where food
:19:01. > :19:06.fraud is likely to be occurring. Commodities markets where there is a
:19:07. > :19:10.big incentive for food fraud to take place and we need to be more
:19:11. > :19:20.effective in making sure the samples are more likely to identify
:19:21. > :19:29.problems. So find out how confident you can be in your food in Inside
:19:30. > :19:32.Out at 7.30. Gareth Southgate, the manager of
:19:33. > :19:35.England's Under 21 side, has today urged clubs in the Championship to
:19:36. > :19:38.reduce their reliance on foreign players. In effect, he would like to
:19:39. > :19:41.see clubs like Ipswich Town introduce a cap on overseas stars.
:19:42. > :19:44.Gareth Southgate was speaking in Colchester where the young England
:19:45. > :19:51.side are training ahead of tomorrow night's international against
:19:52. > :19:54.Lithuania. The match is being played at Portman Road, the home of
:19:55. > :20:02.Ipswich. Our sports editor Jonathan Park reports. This is the future of
:20:03. > :20:07.English football, the under 21s being put through their paces.
:20:08. > :20:13.Tomorrow they face Lithuania in a European championship qualifier at
:20:14. > :20:19.Portman Road followed by the senior team's make or break clash with
:20:20. > :20:23.Poland at Wembley. The impact of qualifying or not qualifying is
:20:24. > :20:27.enormous to every aspect of our society really. I was discussing
:20:28. > :20:31.this with Roy last week. You get a feel of exactly what it means and
:20:32. > :20:36.feel of the pressure the team are under and maybe when I was playing I
:20:37. > :20:42.didn't quite realise that so much, which was a good thing! There is a
:20:43. > :20:58.lot of talk over the new chairman's commission, examining the state of
:20:59. > :21:00.the national game. He has been criticised for lacking punch.
:21:01. > :21:02.Southgate has called for a cap on foreign players in the championship
:21:03. > :21:05.where many are turning to cheap imports at the expense of young
:21:06. > :21:07.British talent being given a chance. We are reviewing how the Academy is
:21:08. > :21:13.wrong, we are reviewing grass roots football, but if at the end of that
:21:14. > :21:20.path there is no game at the weekend and no game under pressure, then
:21:21. > :21:26.that is an experience that 17`23 `year`olds are missing out on. Many
:21:27. > :21:29.of these players are in and out of their prospective club teams,
:21:30. > :21:39.including Redmond who started his career with a flourish. There is a
:21:40. > :21:44.lot of talk recently about how we don't have players from the future
:21:45. > :21:53.and if you look at the under 21 teams, as the list goes down to the
:21:54. > :22:01.under 16`year`olds, this shows he has faith in the players and it is
:22:02. > :22:03.therefore us if we work hard. Nathan Redmond has already been a
:22:04. > :22:08.matchwinner for Norwich this season, and with his England colours
:22:09. > :22:15.on, should get a warm reception tomorrow night at Portman Road. It
:22:16. > :22:24.is said to be an exciting night, starting in Ipswich, ending in
:22:25. > :22:37.Brazil, hopefully. Now as you know we have some world
:22:38. > :22:40.class sporting venues in our region. Silverstone for motor racing,
:22:41. > :22:44.Newmarket for horse racing, and Stadium MK, soon to host World Cup
:22:45. > :22:46.rugby of course. But what about the village of Southwick in
:22:47. > :22:49.Northamptonshire? For the first time yesterday the village played host to
:22:50. > :22:52.the world conker championships. Mike Liggins has been watching the
:22:53. > :23:00.action. Some people even came from Venezuela to take part. Each
:23:01. > :23:05.competitor gets three strikes, and after that it goes to sudden death.
:23:06. > :23:13.This year it was Southwark for the first time. We were at the beautiful
:23:14. > :23:20.village green of Ashton but it got a bit small and we were even turning
:23:21. > :23:24.people away from the car park. The way to another venue but it was too
:23:25. > :23:35.windy. Fancy dress plays a big part, here we had the pink Panther.
:23:36. > :23:55.It was decided on this mishit, or quarter snacks for the conquer
:23:56. > :24:00.initiate our `` conquer experts. As the new king of conkers Simon got a
:24:01. > :24:05.crown, he didn't seem all that pleased to be world champion. I am a
:24:06. > :24:10.bit overwhelmed really. I was having a quiet Sunday afternoon and this
:24:11. > :24:15.happens, a very strange feeling. It is quite tense, but as soon as it
:24:16. > :24:20.cracked I went for the kill. There was no practice involved, it was
:24:21. > :24:27.pure luck. Since it started in 1965, the World Conker Championships has
:24:28. > :24:43.raised ?400,000 for charity and much fun had by all. Congratulations to
:24:44. > :24:49.this all conquering Duro. `` duo. I love that, I was having a quiet
:24:50. > :24:56.weekend and this happened! I think next year they should all wear
:24:57. > :25:02.onesies! We have had everything today, a real
:25:03. > :25:08.mixture of cloud but some sunshine as well for some people.
:25:09. > :25:14.Around the centre of this low pressure we have had showers
:25:15. > :25:18.rotating around and they have been pushing into our part of the world.
:25:19. > :25:23.We have a fair few out there as we speak, they will tend to pull away
:25:24. > :25:27.to the east, some of them on the sharp side, and the rest of the
:25:28. > :25:33.night after midnight should be largely dry. If we get any breaks in
:25:34. > :25:37.the cloud, we are likely to see some patchy fog developing and quite a
:25:38. > :25:46.lot of mist and low cloud out there during the second part of the night.
:25:47. > :25:51.In moral sports we could be down to around five degrees, which is really
:25:52. > :25:59.chilly. Tomorrow, and misty, murky start of the day, some of the fog
:26:00. > :26:05.will be slow to clear. We cannot rule out a few showers but it is
:26:06. > :26:11.looking largely dry. Temperatures looking around 13 Celsius at best,
:26:12. > :26:15.and we are looking at mainly light west to north`westerly winds
:26:16. > :26:20.throughout the day. We finished the day with a few showers, but largely
:26:21. > :26:25.dry skies. As we head into the rest of the week, is what ahead?
:26:26. > :26:30.Wednesday will probably have a dry start but then we are expecting some
:26:31. > :26:37.rain to push in from the south`west. On Thursday, probably
:26:38. > :26:42.largely fine and dry, I think. We cannot rule out some showers but
:26:43. > :26:47.hopefully some brightness coming through as well. On Friday, as it
:26:48. > :26:52.stands, it is looking a similar day. A fair bit of fine, dry weather with
:26:53. > :26:57.some showers likely in the afternoon. It looks like most of the
:26:58. > :27:03.rain should stay to the west of us but that is subject to change. On
:27:04. > :27:09.Thursday and Friday, you will notice much milder days. We could see 17
:27:10. > :27:11.Celsius in the sunshine so very mild, and these are your overnight
:27:12. > :27:16.lows.
