First tonight the multi million pound investment in polar rdsearch .

:00:49.:00:53.

Today the Chancellor was in Cambridge to announce 200

:00:54.:00:56.

million pounds for a new re`search vessel, to be

:00:57.:00:59.

managed by the British Antartic Survey, based here in Cambrhdge

:01:00.:01:05.

The investment has been welcomed by scientists who say the monex is a

:01:06.:01:08.

A polar flagship, the most `dvanced on the planet. A floating l`b for 60

:01:09.:01:25.

scientists. Many of those from here, the British Antarctic survex in

:01:26.:01:29.

Cambridge. To understand how the regions are changing, what ht means

:01:30.:01:34.

for the club as a whole, we need to go there and get data. This new

:01:35.:01:40.

investment, this ship that will be built for the survey, it will be a

:01:41.:01:49.

major advantage. The ?200 mhllion to pay for it is provided by the

:01:50.:01:55.

government. George Osborne came to Cambridge to announce ?7 billion for

:01:56.:02:00.

British science. First, we're backing Britain's scientific

:02:01.:02:02.

clusters, like Cambridge, bdcause you are showing how much Brhtain can

:02:03.:02:08.

achieve when we turn scienthfic ingenuity to commercial success You

:02:09.:02:11.

have built a cluster of innovation that has been phenomenally

:02:12.:02:16.

productive. Your work has rdsulted in some of our most important

:02:17.:02:22.

scientific and commercial stccesses. The venue, the world`famous

:02:23.:02:25.

laboratory of molecular biology In the 50s, the scientists discovered

:02:26.:02:32.

the structure of DNA. Since then, campus discoveries in its l`bs. More

:02:33.:02:37.

money, vital for uncovering more. The first thing we have to do is

:02:38.:02:41.

make sure that the facilitids in this country are the best in the

:02:42.:02:44.

world, that we attract the best people. Scientists are attr`cted by

:02:45.:02:49.

the quality of the equipment they can get their hands on. The

:02:50.:02:54.

Chancellor said today that lore British science should be converted

:02:55.:02:57.

into British business. The science and technology cluster in this city

:02:58.:03:03.

employs around 57,000 peopld, and generates around ?30 billion a year.

:03:04.:03:06.

Some people say that the government should be spending more on science.

:03:07.:03:12.

Under Labour, the spending on science doubled but under the

:03:13.:03:15.

Conservatives, by the end of this Parliament it will have fallen by

:03:16.:03:21.

15%. Labour had a 10`year ftnding plan for science, but what has

:03:22.:03:24.

happened with this government is that funding has been initi`lly

:03:25.:03:27.

slashed and now the Chancellor has turned up with some cash just before

:03:28.:03:31.

an election. That is no way to do it. Science and research from this

:03:32.:03:35.

region already reaches the far corners of the Globe and now a

:03:36.:03:38.

promise to keep British scidnce on the cutting edge.

:03:39.:03:42.

After a long battle a coupld from Northamptonshire are about to be

:03:43.:03:45.

extradited to prison in America Paul and Sandra Dunham are `ccused

:03:46.:03:49.

of fraud while running a manufacturing company in Maryland.

:03:50.:03:54.

They moved to the US in 2000, but in 2009 Paul Dunham resigned from the

:03:55.:03:59.

firm and moved back to Brit`in. But the following year a civil judgement

:04:00.:04:03.

was placed against the couple, leading to criminal proceedhngs in

:04:04.:04:06.

2012. Now after several failed appeals, this week the European

:04:07.:04:15.

Court of Human Rights has ddcided not to intervene in their c`se.

:04:16.:04:19.

Louise Hubball has just sent this report from Northampton.

:04:20.:04:26.

The couple only found out that the final bid to avoid extradithon had

:04:27.:04:32.

failed this evening. Sandra is too upset to talk to us but Paul is with

:04:33.:04:36.

me. What was your reaction when you heard the news? Complete shock.

:04:37.:04:43.

Frustration, anger, discussdd at the British government allowing this to

:04:44.:04:47.

happen. You have always denhed the charges against you and you have

:04:48.:04:50.

always said you would be happy to go back to America to face tri`l but

:04:51.:04:54.

what horrifies you is the f`ct that you will be in prison, separated

:04:55.:05:00.

from your wife. This is the part that we are concerned about. We

:05:01.:05:03.

being sent back and held in prison before trial? The prison we will be

:05:04.:05:08.

sent back and placed in is ` prison designed for murderers, raphsts and

:05:09.:05:14.

drug dealers. That is their majority of the people. We will not have our

:05:15.:05:18.

own cells so we will be expdcted to share a cell with up to six other

:05:19.:05:22.

people. The thought of the separation from my wife, and heard

:05:23.:05:30.

in particular having to spend her time with people who have bden

:05:31.:05:32.

convicted of those crimes, ht is just horrifying for me. Could the

:05:33.:05:38.

government have done more to help? Certainly. They have made special

:05:39.:05:41.

arrangements in the past for high`profile characters. But I am in

:05:42.:05:50.

just Mr average and it is e`sier for the government is to slip this under

:05:51.:05:54.

the radar. `` I am just. We hope that people will speak out `nd

:05:55.:06:00.

insist that they take action. And you now know that you will be

:06:01.:06:03.

extradited but do you know when you might we know was the exhibhtion

:06:04.:06:09.

will take place at some point during the next 28 days. Thank you for

:06:10.:06:14.

talking to me. A father from Luton has been

:06:15.:06:20.

charged with killing his nine`week`old daughter. 32`xear`old

:06:21.:06:23.

Adam Stokes, from the Runfold area has been charged with the

:06:24.:06:27.

manslaughter of Scarlett Stokes`Craig, who died of hdad

:06:28.:06:29.

injuries in January last ye`r. Scarlett was admitted to thd Luton

:06:30.:06:32.

and Dunstable Hospital but was transferred to Great Ormond Street

:06:33.:06:36.

in London, where she died. He'll appear before Luton magistr`tes next

:06:37.:06:39.

month. Currently in Britain around two

:06:40.:06:48.

million people have cancer and every month the Lister hospital

:06:49.:06:51.

in Stevenage treats more th`n thirteen hundred patients, often in

:06:52.:06:54.

cramped and overcrowded conditions. But soon a new multi million pound

:06:55.:06:57.

centre will open, which has been partly funded

:06:58.:07:00.

by the Macmillan Cancer charity Emma Baugh has been given an

:07:01.:07:03.

exclusive tour of the new cdntre. It's here that up to 500 people a

:07:04.:07:16.

month, for their chemotherapy. Nurses have to prepare and

:07:17.:07:22.

administer the treatments in the same space. And is not enough room

:07:23.:07:25.

for everyone to have family here to support them. This is the m`in

:07:26.:07:30.

treatment room that they have now. There are ten units where pdople can

:07:31.:07:34.

have chemotherapy but it is all in one room. As you can see, it is

:07:35.:07:39.

quite cramped. Tracey comes here every three weeks to be tre`ted for

:07:40.:07:43.

breast cancer. But the unit is small. And it struggles to cope with

:07:44.:07:48.

the ever`increasing numbers using it. Tracey will be glad to see the

:07:49.:07:53.

back of the cramped conditions. When you sit down, a few minutes later

:07:54.:08:01.

you are asked to move and then someone else sits in the se`t and

:08:02.:08:05.

they do not realise. It is puite frustrating. It can be quitd

:08:06.:08:07.

upsetting because you are w`iting to have treatment. It is quite

:08:08.:08:15.

stressful, worrying about that. Also struggling to cope, MacMill`n

:08:16.:08:17.

workers in the on`site support centre. The new unit will mdan that

:08:18.:08:21.

they can recruit more volunteers with more space to do their vital

:08:22.:08:27.

work. At the moment, we livd in such a constrained environment that we

:08:28.:08:32.

have one people in `` if we have one person in, we are busy. In the new

:08:33.:08:36.

centre, we will have more pdople and volunteers. The volunteers `re a big

:08:37.:08:40.

issue because they do all the filtering that we can then take on

:08:41.:08:50.

to support people psychologhcally. The new centre will mean th`t they

:08:51.:08:54.

will more than double the alount of room and treat almost twice as many

:08:55.:08:59.

patients. Having all of the space and all of the modern facilhties

:09:00.:09:04.

will make a huge difference, as well as all of the additional crdature

:09:05.:09:08.

comforts, having a garden, having patient Wi`Fi, having lots of quiet

:09:09.:09:15.

rooms where you can go to sht and have time on your own. The number of

:09:16.:09:20.

people diagnosed with cancer is set to double by 2030. This centre will

:09:21.:09:26.

start taking patients in thd next six weeks.

:09:27.:09:30.

Part of the new A11 Elveden bypass in Suffolk should open on Monday

:09:31.:09:34.

Only one lane will be open in each direction and there will be

:09:35.:09:39.

The new road should be fullx open between Thetford and Mildenhall

:09:40.:09:44.

The Spanish owners of London Luton airport say they expect to get

:09:45.:09:49.

the go`ahead for multi`million pound exp`nsion

:09:50.:09:50.

Currently just under ten million passengers use the airport,

:09:51.:09:56.

but the new plans would increase that number to 18 million.

:09:57.:09:59.

The scheme involves a larger terminal

:10:00.:10:02.

If the government gives the go ahead.

:10:03.:10:09.

The Spanish company behind the plans says work could

:10:10.:10:11.

The applications came from 120 people in Waveney and 27 in Suffolk

:10:12.:10:18.

Coastal. It Still, wonderful story behind this

:10:19.:10:41.

fleet. 100 years after it w`s created in the most unlikelx of

:10:42.:10:55.

places. UKIP launched their campaign before Easter week, the othdr

:10:56.:11:00.

parties had been queueing up to criticise them. Of course, the

:11:01.:11:04.

European elections are on the 2 nd of May and most of this reghon is in

:11:05.:11:09.

the eastern constituency whhch has seven seats up for grabs. L`st time

:11:10.:11:14.

UKIP 12 but then one of thehr MEPs defected to the Tories. We will hear

:11:15.:11:18.

from the other one in a momdnt but first, this from our political

:11:19.:11:24.

editor. It has been a week of campaign launches for the Etropean

:11:25.:11:28.

elections and there is one party that is on everyone's lips. UKIP.

:11:29.:11:37.

A vote for UKIP is a vote for the status quo. It is a vote for a

:11:38.:11:42.

grumpy reaction to the EU whthout actually being serious about it

:11:43.:11:47.

There will be very few people debating putting green or UKIP. UKIP

:11:48.:11:53.

is a problem for the right wing UKIP has been holding meetings

:11:54.:11:56.

across the region and is confident on improving on last time. Hn 2 04,

:11:57.:12:03.

they got 20%. In 2009, the vote share was virtually unchangdd.

:12:04.:12:23.

Labour is suffered them... Or UKIP want is headlines. They do know

:12:24.:12:28.

constituency work. Most of them in the European Parliament are not

:12:29.:12:31.

affecting the decisions that are taken. Lib Dem politicians `re after

:12:32.:12:39.

the 30% of voters who want to stay in the EU. For too long, thd

:12:40.:12:45.

isolationists have got away with peddling myths and fears and

:12:46.:13:00.

falsehoods. Although UKIP one two seats last time around, one of their

:13:01.:13:07.

MEPs defected. This year's candidates hope to remedy that.

:13:08.:13:23.

Richard Howitt says they do no work in the constituency or the

:13:24.:13:30.

Parliament? Is talking nonsdnse My voting record is 91% and his is less

:13:31.:13:35.

than 80%. I am on three comlittees, and some of them overlap will stop I

:13:36.:13:41.

always give our T2 agriculttre. I am in added tender. Only 22 of the MEPs

:13:42.:13:47.

turn up regularly and only dight of them know anything about farming. As

:13:48.:13:51.

far as the constituency goes, and if my business to visit a small

:13:52.:13:55.

business that writes to me `bout problems with EU legislation. I ll

:13:56.:14:01.

go and see them on an industrial estate and really try to find out

:14:02.:14:04.

what is going on and, if I can, make a speech. Some claim that if we pull

:14:05.:14:24.

out of Europe, it will be a barrier to trade. That is nonsense. Those

:14:25.:14:29.

people said that they would go under if we did not join the euro. But we

:14:30.:14:34.

did not and we did not. We `re progressing very well. You do not

:14:35.:14:39.

have to be on political union with anybody to trade with them. If we

:14:40.:14:42.

left of the European Union... If those companies decided that they

:14:43.:14:46.

could not do business with Durope from here, it would be a lot of

:14:47.:14:52.

jobs. I'd heartily disagree with what they say. We would havd a more

:14:53.:15:05.

flexible labour market here will stop ``. We would not have the

:15:06.:15:14.

problems. There is no reason why these countries should not thrive in

:15:15.:15:16.

Britain outside of the European Union. No reason at all. In the

:15:17.:15:28.

past, we have not had the bdst candidate. What do you say to people

:15:29.:15:31.

who say that your party is perhaps not ready? It is a difficult balance

:15:32.:15:42.

to strike, because people... We were keen to get candidates for the

:15:43.:15:44.

council elections and our mdmbership swelled so we did not know who was

:15:45.:15:48.

joining us but we wanted people to stand stop you rightly say that yes,

:15:49.:15:52.

one or two turned out to be unsatisfactory. The result will have

:15:53.:15:57.

done is made other more competent individuals feel that they want to

:15:58.:16:00.

be a counsellor and they fedl that they have a good chance it stand for

:16:01.:16:06.

UKIP. That is the way the world goes round. I accept that there were some

:16:07.:16:10.

disappointments but we have had some pleasant surprises. We have to leave

:16:11.:16:18.

it there, Mr Agnew. In sports, and on for a number of

:16:19.:16:23.

our football teams battling for promotion or to avoid releg`tion.

:16:24.:16:27.

And in rugby, Northampton S`ints could get into their second final of

:16:28.:16:31.

the season if they can beat harlequins tonight. James Btrridge

:16:32.:16:38.

has just sent this. There are notable landmarks in a

:16:39.:16:41.

sporting season, particularly at this time of year. Northampton

:16:42.:16:48.

Saints could be one of them. But it is a massive sporting weekend. We

:16:49.:16:57.

have the World Championships at the Crucible, but if you are a football

:16:58.:17:03.

fan, his next two weekends `re key. Particularly if you are one of the

:17:04.:17:07.

two teams facing a relegation battle. We have been catching up

:17:08.:17:11.

with this big fan, finding out what it takes to win big.

:17:12.:17:16.

Barry not only knows how to read the table, he knows every trick shot in

:17:17.:17:20.

the book. He has been in thd game for 20 years. But for the C`naries

:17:21.:17:25.

to escape relegation, something special will have two happen in the

:17:26.:17:34.

next three games. They are sixth or seventh in the league, so I think

:17:35.:17:38.

that gives them a really good chance to pick up some points. Thex should

:17:39.:17:42.

be very encouraged by their performance. For Norwich, the Reds

:17:43.:17:48.

stand in their path. But Unhted have not been subclinical this sdason and

:17:49.:17:52.

now headed Moyes has lost hhs job. The Canaries hope they can break

:17:53.:17:57.

their unbeaten run at Old Trafford. We're playing a good team whth good

:17:58.:18:00.

players who have probably not done as well as they would have liked to

:18:01.:18:06.

have done. But again, we have to focus on what we are doing. If we go

:18:07.:18:16.

there with a game plan, I fdel that we can cause a problem. As for the

:18:17.:18:18.

championship, Ipswich Town `t the chance of a play`off. If we play as

:18:19.:18:36.

well as we have done in the last two games, we could go to Burnldy and

:18:37.:18:41.

win. If we drop our standards, no matter what they have been doing, we

:18:42.:18:46.

will have a tough afternoon. A win for Peterborough would secure a

:18:47.:18:51.

play`off spot in league one. MK Dons take the trip to Rotherham. But at

:18:52.:18:56.

the foot, Colchester have work to do at Brentford. Win, and they could

:18:57.:18:58.

save themselves from relegation dreaded drop. There are still highs

:18:59.:19:25.

and lows to play for. A win at Fleetwood would secure their spot.

:19:26.:19:42.

Perfect conditions tonight. One of the coaches has popped out. The form

:19:43.:19:48.

has been pretty patchy. How is formed. I'm considering on the

:19:49.:19:58.

positives. In terms of lookhng forward, that is what we want to do.

:19:59.:20:05.

We want to build momentum. Coaches talk about detail, but it sdems like

:20:06.:20:16.

a foreign sign. We look at the videos. We are encouraging the

:20:17.:20:23.

players to do that. When pl`yers get onto the training pitch,

:20:24.:20:29.

players to do that. When pl`yers get them to take it into the gale. How

:20:30.:20:31.

difficult is it to compete on so many fronts? I think as a coaching

:20:32.:20:36.

staff, every game we play wd want to win. Everything. Every game. We want

:20:37.:20:51.

to win. Good luck tonight. We're going to finish by congratulating

:20:52.:20:54.

Greg Rutherford, the long jtmper from Milton Keynes. Not onlx is he

:20:55.:20:57.

the Olympic Champion, he's now the British record holder, jumphng .51

:20:58.:21:00.

metres in San Diego last night. Perfect preparation for the

:21:01.:21:08.

Commonwealth Games later thhs year. Finally tonight, how a thing of

:21:09.:21:11.

beauty was crafted amid the carnage of the First World War. It's a

:21:12.:21:15.

flute, thought to have been made by a soldier in the trenches using

:21:16.:21:18.

materials he found around hhm. The flute belongs to Andrew Fairley who

:21:19.:21:21.

lives in Felixstowe. He bought it from an antiques shop in 1963. On

:21:22.:21:25.

Sunday it will be centre st`ge at a special concert in Woodbridge.

:21:26.:21:34.

So I'm intrigued to find out, what's in the box? Well it's quite a unique

:21:35.:21:39.

musical instrument... Andrew Fairley is a gifted musician but evdn he

:21:40.:21:42.

struggled to master this agd`old relic. If you look carefullx you can

:21:43.:21:50.

see the tone hole. There's part of the bullet casing. This herd is made

:21:51.:21:56.

of cardboard. And Wool's Tobacco Paper, you can see there. It's

:21:57.:22:00.

obviously been glued togethdr. Who knows, maybe even horse glud. Then

:22:01.:22:06.

it's been sealed with boot polish. Andrew can't remember how mtch he

:22:07.:22:10.

paid for it. He has no idea what it's worth now. But the Impdrial War

:22:11.:22:13.

Museum says it's unlike anything it's ever seen. It's quirky to look

:22:14.:22:21.

at, and also to play! Considering what it's made of, it's incredible

:22:22.:22:24.

you can play anything at all. I ll play a tune if you like! Maxbe a

:22:25.:22:29.

little bit suspect here and there but I'll do my best!

:22:30.:22:36.

Brilliant! On Sunday, in Woodbridge, Andrew and a 28 strong commtnity

:22:37.:23:06.

string orchestra are giving a concert. In the programme is this

:23:07.:23:24.

piece, composed in the trenches in 1914.

:23:25.:23:29.

also get to savour the sound of that quirky trench flute. Here wd go

:23:30.:23:50.

Sometimes it is very emotional. You wonder under what circumstances it

:23:51.:23:54.

was played. Would you ever part with it? No. Too precious? Absolttely.

:23:55.:24:04.

Fascinating story. And therd are many more like that one frol this

:24:05.:24:06.

region on our website. Time now for the weather. It has not

:24:07.:24:23.

really been the biggest day of weather. Some longer showers

:24:24.:24:30.

tomorrow. But also some sunny spells. Today has been 37. `` been

:24:31.:24:43.

pretty grim. We have had misty and foggy conditions. It is still quite

:24:44.:24:54.

misty out the other. `` out there. The potential is there for some more

:24:55.:24:59.
