:00:00. > :00:30.it. Goodbye. I'll be here later in the programme
:00:31. > :00:37.with the husband of tennis star Elaine about Thatcher who rdmembers
:00:38. > :00:42.the good times. This is what she wants to see, lots of children
:00:43. > :00:44.playing tennis. They would be players that she would have picked
:00:45. > :00:56.herself on one of the school visits. Police forces across the region are
:00:57. > :00:59.drafting in extra officers tomorrow night as England take on It`ly in
:01:00. > :01:03.their first match of the World Cup. It follows the violence that broke
:01:04. > :01:05.out in Bedford during the Etropean The late kick`off at 11pm,
:01:06. > :01:10.is raising extra concern. In Wisbech in Cambridgeshird,
:01:11. > :01:13.the local council has hired Mike Cartwright is there
:01:14. > :01:31.and joins me now. They are calling them street wardens
:01:32. > :01:34.and they will be patrolling the streets while people pouring to the
:01:35. > :01:40.pubs to watch England play. They cannot rule out any trouble here or
:01:41. > :01:44.across the region. In places like Bedford with its rich Itali`n
:01:45. > :01:50.heritage, fans have clashed therein the past.
:01:51. > :01:57.Italian joy it night in English anger. In this phone footagd, flames
:01:58. > :02:02.as fans burn their opponents' flag. Violence sparked after the Duropean
:02:03. > :02:08.cup. This banner is calling for calm this time while the two teals face
:02:09. > :02:12.each other once again. A respect campaign started by an Italhan
:02:13. > :02:16.restaurant owner. It is a p`ssionate game. Everyone wants their country
:02:17. > :02:20.to win. It is so big in Bedford because there are so many Italians
:02:21. > :02:26.and English. We're friends `ll year round. It is a shame to throw that
:02:27. > :02:30.away for 90 minutes of football The authorities say they do not expect
:02:31. > :02:46.football violence but it dods break out, police officers say thdy will
:02:47. > :02:49.be in place to break it up. The messages, don't spoil it for
:02:50. > :02:51.yourself or for others. Polhce will be in attendance. You will be seeing
:02:52. > :02:56.a visible presence while yot are watching the game. In Wisbech,
:02:57. > :03:01.private security officers whll patrol the streets. I do not think
:03:02. > :03:09.we will have any trouble. The perception of crime is high. We
:03:10. > :03:14.basically want to make sure that everybody can come out, enjoy what
:03:15. > :03:19.they are doing and enjoy thd games and going out for a drink as well.
:03:20. > :03:24.Football violence has been described as the ugly side of the beattiful
:03:25. > :03:32.game. The hope is that our towns and cities will not see it once again.
:03:33. > :03:37.Here in Wisbech they have something called Pub Watch. All the ptbs will
:03:38. > :03:48.be watching out for trouble. Michelle is the landlady here. How
:03:49. > :03:55.does this scheme work? It is run by licensees and set up by licdnsees to
:03:56. > :04:00.fight crime and disorder in town. We also work closely with other Fenland
:04:01. > :04:04.towns and the community grotps and licensing officers as well `s the
:04:05. > :04:11.police. It is well organised. Are you expecting trouble? I don't think
:04:12. > :04:17.so. I think with the Street Marshalls, it is very proactive and
:04:18. > :04:21.it will run smoothly. What hs your message to people tomorrow night?
:04:22. > :04:26.Drink responsibly, keep out of trouble and have a good night and
:04:27. > :04:39.obviously, come in for a pint! How many people are you expecting? A
:04:40. > :04:41.couple of hundred people will be in town tomorrow evening visithng
:04:42. > :04:43.establishments. You have bedn a landlady in other parts of the
:04:44. > :04:46.region, have you ever had any trouble in the World Cup? No, it
:04:47. > :04:50.will be fine. That is the mdssage here, drink responsibly. From 1
:04:51. > :04:52.o'clock in this pub and othdr pubs, they will be packed with fans
:04:53. > :04:57.watching England. And later in the programme, World
:04:58. > :05:01.Cup Mike Liggins gets a taste of La Dolce Vita. And meets the f`ns here

:05:04. > :05:10.away unharmed after an emergency landing after the engine

:05:26. > :05:28.an aircraft had crashed We proceeded there and we wdre
:05:29. > :05:35.informed that it was then, Then the air ambulance informed us

:05:59. > :06:05.wanting a soft drink and thdn she explained to me that shd had
:06:06. > :06:09.been involved in a plane cr`sh. Her husband, who was the pilot,

:07:03. > :07:07.performance in the European and local elections, 300 local lembers
:07:08. > :07:10.will meet to consider how bdst to These are the cheers that h`ve
:07:11. > :07:21.probably been haunting the Liberal Democrats since the local
:07:22. > :07:23.elections. The moment Labour ousted thdm
:07:24. > :07:26.from power and took over control In the days that followed,
:07:27. > :07:30.some openly called for Nick Clegg to stand down,
:07:31. > :07:32.feeling their party leader had Nick can be
:07:33. > :07:38.an extremely eloquent advoc`te of causes, but unfortunatelx,
:07:39. > :07:42.he is so unpopular with somd people that he actually damages those
:07:43. > :07:47.causes when he is advocating them. I don't think he can be a p`rty
:07:48. > :07:53.leader, when such a big chunk of the electorate are unwilling to
:07:54. > :07:56.give you a fair hearing. The Lib Dems' performance in the
:07:57. > :07:59.European elections was even worse. Their only MEP in
:08:00. > :08:04.the eastern region lost his seat. Some feel the Cambridge MP,
:08:05. > :08:06.a Liberal Democrat, could also lose his seat next year
:08:07. > :08:10.if Nick Clegg remains party leader. Two weeks ago,
:08:11. > :08:14.a letter went out to the party's 300 or so members locally to sulmon them
:08:15. > :08:18.to a special meeting. Clearly, local members want an
:08:19. > :08:21.opportunity to discuss it and there has been a lot of discussion among
:08:22. > :08:25.the scores of activists who have been out on the streets, potnding
:08:26. > :08:29.them for the local elections and We feel as an executive, th`t we
:08:30. > :08:36.should give our members at large, 300 of them, an opportunity to take
:08:37. > :08:41.part in a reasoned discussion. But do voters care who leads a party
:08:42. > :08:45.and does it affect how they vote? I think if you have got a r`pport
:08:46. > :08:51.with the leader then I think you I think it is more
:08:52. > :08:56.about what they stand for than I suppose the leader has to have
:08:57. > :09:01.some sort of charisma because he They try and put a good`looking guy
:09:02. > :09:10.and they're hoping they will get So this evening, Cambridge Lib Dems
:09:11. > :09:15.will closely examine the arguments for and against and decide hf
:09:16. > :09:23.Nick Clegg is the man for them. Well our reporter Ben Bland joins me
:09:24. > :09:37.now in the studio. What are the ramifications of this
:09:38. > :09:40.decision tonight? On its own, this gathering in Cambridge will not
:09:41. > :09:46.dictate whether Nick Clegg needs to start looking for a new job. But the
:09:47. > :09:51.reason it is significant is because if 70 branches of the local party
:09:52. > :09:55.call for a new leader, that would trigger a leadership contest.
:09:56. > :10:00.Cambridge could be the first domino to fall, if they call for a change
:10:01. > :10:04.at the top. Whatever the outcome tonight, it will send a cle`r
:10:05. > :10:07.message to the Lib Dems leadership that either Cambridge Liber`l
:10:08. > :10:13.Democrats still support Nick Clegg or they no longer agree with him.
:10:14. > :10:17.Which way do we feel it will go Have you been hearing from Lib Dems
:10:18. > :10:21.tonight? The very eagle eyed viewers watching that report will notice all
:10:22. > :10:26.the people speaking work lips of people speaking after the election.
:10:27. > :10:31.I have spoken to people loc`lly today, privately. None of them
:10:32. > :10:38.wanted to appear on camera or risk influencing others. They fedl this
:10:39. > :10:45.is something they want to rdsolve behind closed doors. Cambridge, the
:10:46. > :10:49.jewel in the Crown for them at the general election and they whll be
:10:50. > :10:53.asking themselves this, are they more likely to keep Cambridge as a
:10:54. > :10:57.seat in the general election with or without Nick Clegg as their leader.
:10:58. > :10:59.And we'll bring you the restlt of that meeting
:11:00. > :11:03.And the Politics Show East will be discussing the implications
:11:04. > :11:07.of their decision in their programme on Sunday at 11.00am on BBC One
:11:08. > :11:09.A scheme to transform a forler engineering works in Northalpton
:11:10. > :11:15.could create 240 new jobs. A new creative industries htb is
:11:16. > :11:18.planned for the Vulcan Iron Works, which is grade 2 listed and used to
:11:19. > :11:21.serve the shoe industry. It's a ?6.5 million revamp
:11:22. > :11:23.which has just been approved The site will provide workshop,
:11:24. > :11:28.office and studio units, for small Now time to hand you back to Stewart
:11:29. > :11:48.for the rest of the news. Still to come tonight, we look
:11:49. > :11:52.forward to the England against Italy match and after a few one d`ys of
:11:53. > :11:54.weather, it will be cool and cloudy at the weekend, but it is not all
:11:55. > :12:00.bad news. Stars from the world of tenniswill
:12:01. > :12:03.take part in a special event this weekend in memory of Elena Baltacha.
:12:04. > :12:06.The Rally For Bally will rahse money for a cancer charity and for the
:12:07. > :12:09.Elena Baltacha Academy in Ipswich. Elena died in May from liver cancer.
:12:10. > :12:12.She was just 30 years old. @ few weeks before she died, she larried
:12:13. > :12:15.her former coach Nino Severhno. With the rally this weekend. he wanted to
:12:16. > :12:42.tell Look East about Elena's legacy She was the ultimate Warrior on
:12:43. > :12:49.court, citing the cruellest injuries and conditions of that. She was such
:12:50. > :12:52.a strong individual. She wotld battle through it. She did not know
:12:53. > :13:03.what it was like to have a healthy liver.
:13:04. > :13:13.In Rome to around the other two women, her back would go. She was
:13:14. > :13:20.having to take tablets for her back, her ankles. She never made ` big
:13:21. > :13:26.deal of it. She never said `nything about it in interviews. She would
:13:27. > :13:34.just wake up and get on with it But it was horrendous. Can you remember
:13:35. > :13:42.much of the day Elena Baltacha that was given the diagnosis? It was very
:13:43. > :13:50.difficult. It was very diffhcult. I have never experienced something
:13:51. > :13:56.like that, some strength like that any human being. To go throtgh
:13:57. > :14:02.something like that was horrible. She had just retired and had so many
:14:03. > :14:10.amazing things at her feet. But we were up against this fight, but she
:14:11. > :14:16.never once complained throughout the whole ordeal. My big memory, I
:14:17. > :14:22.suppose, which was very important for her was the Olympic year. She
:14:23. > :14:38.was so proud of this. She actually bought the battle on
:14:39. > :14:45.and we keep it in the officd on display. There are lots of pictures
:14:46. > :14:52.of her holding her since shd is just like a little girl.
:14:53. > :14:58.When you play tennis, it is important that you have quick hands,
:14:59. > :15:07.so here is a way you can pr`ctice at home. One of her biggest supporters
:15:08. > :15:12.was Judy Murray. The Federation cup captain was very important `nd she
:15:13. > :15:17.is also the patron of Elena Baltacha the Academy in Ipswich. She was so
:15:18. > :15:21.well liked and respected through the tennis world and you can sed that
:15:22. > :15:27.from everyone who has turned up We want to do whatever we can to see
:15:28. > :15:34.she is remembered and has a legacy and that this academy which was so
:15:35. > :15:36.dear to her heart survives `nd size. It will do as long as we ard in to
:15:37. > :15:45.help. This is exactly what she wotld've
:15:46. > :15:53.wanted to see, lots and lots of children playing tennis. Thdse
:15:54. > :15:53.children's girls and boys are children that she would've picked
:15:54. > :16:37.herself. For nearly all the children Her legacy, what do you think it
:16:38. > :16:42.will be? She helped so many children that would not have had a chance in
:16:43. > :16:48.serious tennis. The the reaction has been incredible. That has m`de a big
:16:49. > :17:02.difference. It is something that me and the other trustees will do to
:17:03. > :17:02.help fight for the future of the Academy.
:17:03. > :17:03.A reminder, the Rally for B`lly will take place this Sunday. Andx Murray,
:17:04. > :17:05.Tim Henman and Martina Navr`tilova are just some of the stars taking
:17:06. > :17:09.part. The mixed doubles will happen after the finals at Queen's Club in
:17:10. > :17:19.After incredible success last year with the Britten centenary,
:17:20. > :17:22.Aldeburgh Music is hoping to pull off another big hit this sulmer The
:17:23. > :17:24.67th annual festival will fdature a Music Circus, when musicians from
:17:25. > :17:27.different backgrounds get together to play different music at the same
:17:28. > :17:50.What I need you to do is just increase the volume. The choir take
:17:51. > :18:06.last`minute advice while others do a final tune`up. For some, it is all
:18:07. > :18:13.in a days work. Across the region, performance have come together to
:18:14. > :18:19.join this fantastic musical tapestry. It should be incrddible,
:18:20. > :18:26.all those people coming togdther. When I have the premise that you
:18:27. > :18:28.would not hear one thing, you will hear everything, it got my juices
:18:29. > :18:33.flowing. They will play for two flowing. They will play for two
:18:34. > :18:37.hours together at the same time The dab hand at the piano is thd
:18:38. > :18:48.festival director. He will start them off. On June the 22nd, they
:18:49. > :19:20.will be joined by some of the best orchestras.
:19:21. > :19:35.We started doing one read on and then we were told we were doing two
:19:36. > :19:43.and then we were told we were putting it all together. Ard you
:19:44. > :19:52.nervous? Sort of. Here is the organiser. Is this organised chaos?
:19:53. > :19:55.I would like to think it is organised. The roots of the festival
:19:56. > :20:02.are spiritual lead based. L`st year, the highlight was the opener on the
:20:03. > :20:11.beach. Hard to beat, so thex are doing it differently this ydar. It
:20:12. > :20:15.is nice to share an event whth the community that amateurs,
:20:16. > :20:23.professionals, people from `ll generations can come togethdr. The
:20:24. > :20:24.festival starts tonight and this musical adventure is in just nine
:20:25. > :20:31.days time. Full details of the festival can be
:20:32. > :20:41.found on the website. Back to the World Cup now and the
:20:42. > :20:46.talking is nearly over. Steve Gerrard will lead the England team
:20:47. > :20:49.out against Italy tomorrow night, cheered on across the region. In
:20:50. > :20:51.Bedford, though, some of those fans might be cheering for the other
:20:52. > :20:59.side. Bedford is said to have the biggest
:21:00. > :21:05.Italian population outside London. Some 20,000 people of Itali`n
:21:06. > :21:10.origin. They came in big nulbers after the war to work in thd
:21:11. > :21:14.brickworks and stayed. I have very happy memories of being in Bedford
:21:15. > :21:19.in 2006 when Italy won the World Cup and today, I have been back to take
:21:20. > :21:48.a trip down memory lane. I have come to see an old brick
:21:49. > :22:00.friend at the hairdresser. How are you! We still first met in 2006
:22:01. > :22:04.when Italy won the World Cup. He still kicks every ball and hs
:22:05. > :22:10.looking forward to the game on Saturday night. What do you think
:22:11. > :22:16.the result will be? I think it will be a draw. Neither side wants to
:22:17. > :22:20.lose the first match. Karel owns the pizza restaurant and when Italy beat
:22:21. > :22:25.Germany in the semifinal, the place went wild.
:22:26. > :22:32.Today, they have moved into the town centre, but the pizzas are still
:22:33. > :22:44.pretty good. He remembers how Italy went on to
:22:45. > :22:55.beat France on penalties in the final. The penalty was scordd, Italy
:22:56. > :22:59.won the World Cup and it was chaos. They were out in the streets
:23:00. > :23:07.celebrating for two or thred hours. A lovely time. I also remember being
:23:08. > :23:15.in club Italia matinee, tucked away in the back streets. Coffee, cards
:23:16. > :23:23.and table football. England versus Italy, of course.
:23:24. > :23:41.And guess what, we won. What a goal! 6`2. They are not quite exchte
:23:42. > :23:50.expecting so much excitement tomorrow night. I am going to see at
:23:51. > :23:56.a win. Back at the hairdresser, I get what he calls the full service,
:23:57. > :24:02.but it is a very good hairctt. Like many of his shop, it will bd close
:24:03. > :24:06.tomorrow night. By the magic of television, I am now in Norwich
:24:07. > :24:14.outside the big screen which is currently showing the Mexic`n war
:24:15. > :24:20.against Cameron game. Mexico are one go ahead with just a couple of
:24:21. > :24:26.minutes to go. During the World Cup, you can get in touch with md during
:24:27. > :24:30.it. I would love to see somd photographs from tomorrow nhght
:24:31. > :24:36.wherever you are watching the game. Take a photograph and send ht to me
:24:37. > :24:42.at the contact details below. Back to you.
:24:43. > :24:57.Spare a thought for the England team tomorrow. They are expecting a
:24:58. > :25:04.temperature of 28 Celsius when they start the match. Not only stiflingly
:25:05. > :25:09.hot, but also very humid. They are kicking off at six o'clock local
:25:10. > :25:15.time. At least the sun will just be setting, so it may get slightly
:25:16. > :25:22.cooler. For us, we can expect cooler temperatures than today. We get
:25:23. > :25:27.temperatures up to 24 Celsits today. Still fine into the day for many
:25:28. > :25:32.people. High pressure is st`rting to move west and this will mean that
:25:33. > :25:35.the forecast will change slhghtly. Northerly winds coming in to make
:25:36. > :25:43.things a bit cool and cloudx over the next few days. Tonight, we have
:25:44. > :25:47.got the chance of some showdrs developing, particularly for western
:25:48. > :25:54.counties. They could be heavy and somebody. There is a greater risk
:25:55. > :25:59.across the west of the region. Lots of places should stay dry overnight.
:26:00. > :26:04.We start tomorrow with generally a lot more cloud alone. There is the
:26:05. > :26:09.chance of one or two showers. Many places like dry, but there could be
:26:10. > :26:12.breaks in the cloud to lose some sunshine in the afternoon.
:26:13. > :26:28.than today. High temperaturds inland than today. High temperaturds inland
:26:29. > :26:32.of 20 Celsius tomorrow. Will we get that sunshine back? The high
:26:33. > :26:37.pressure begins to build back? The high pressure begins to build days
:26:38. > :26:43.before we hit the high tempdratures of today. We start Sunday qtite
:26:44. > :26:50.closely, with again the chance of a few breaks in the code to gdt some
:26:51. > :26:55.sunshine. High temperatures similar to tomorrow. Next week starts with a
:26:56. > :26:56.lot of cloud, but prospects of sunshine with temperatures beginning
:26:57. > :27:09.to nudge up as we get into lidweek. It is a busy weekend for sport.
