:00:08. > :00:11.In the programme tonight, house prices in Luton soar
:00:12. > :00:15.Now, estate agents are predicting they will go even higher this year.
:00:16. > :00:17.The family agony of early-onset dementia.
:00:18. > :00:19.The father and daughter diagnosed in their thirties.
:00:20. > :00:26.The cyclist whose jaw was rebuilt with the help of a 3-D printer.
:00:27. > :00:29.And over here in the cooling station is a 3-D printing
:00:30. > :00:36.It's a pretty exciting time for surgery.
:00:37. > :00:38.And it is FA Cup third round weekend.
:00:39. > :00:41.I am at Peterborough, who have one of the glamour ties
:00:42. > :00:42.and a money-spinning match against Premier League
:00:43. > :00:58.House prices in Luton are rising faster than anywhere else
:00:59. > :01:01.They have gone up by nearly 20% in the last year,
:01:02. > :01:03.making it the biggest proportional increase.
:01:04. > :01:05.According to the Halifax, the average price of a house
:01:06. > :01:09.an increase of ?41,000 in the last year.
:01:10. > :01:12.And estate agents say this year, prices are likely to go even higher,
:01:13. > :01:31.as Kate Bradbrooke has been finding out.
:01:32. > :01:38.What we are looking at here is your typical two-bedroom house for a
:01:39. > :01:46.first-time buyer. Houses like this one in demand. Compact, but
:01:47. > :01:51.affordable. Affordable compared to other areas. This is one of the
:01:52. > :01:56.reasons the tone is so popular looking to settle down. This house
:01:57. > :02:04.has been on the market for just one week and already has had ten people
:02:05. > :02:10.viewing it. For estate agents, it is a busy time of year. According to
:02:11. > :02:18.the Halifax, host places here last year rose faster than anywhere else
:02:19. > :02:22.in the country. Appointments to view houses are already putting up fast.
:02:23. > :02:28.You could be even more growth this year. We should see a spectacular
:02:29. > :02:32.year again, with house prices continuing to rise, purely because
:02:33. > :02:42.there is a demand. This has a lot to offer in Luton. It has put it back
:02:43. > :02:48.on the map. The attraction is very high and they continue to see that
:02:49. > :02:56.there will be growth. The average pr cis of around ?250,000. It is a
:02:57. > :03:03.more affordable option compared to some other surrounding areas. We
:03:04. > :03:07.used to love the name field. We could not quite afford to stay there
:03:08. > :03:13.are so decided to look further afield. We bought this house two
:03:14. > :03:17.years ago. It has got amazing transport links to London. We have
:03:18. > :03:26.the motorway and the train station nearby. I also have good transport
:03:27. > :03:30.links and also, it is good for me to live near the airport, because I
:03:31. > :03:39.come from Hungary and I can fly back home quickly. There are plans to
:03:40. > :03:46.build hundreds of new homes in the town. If you want a place that is
:03:47. > :03:50.going on the up and you want a place there is a lot of community spirit
:03:51. > :03:56.and lots of things to do, come here. We will be pleased to see you. If
:03:57. > :04:00.prices continue to rise, the fear could be that it will close the door
:04:01. > :04:04.on first-time buyers looking for an affordable place live.
:04:05. > :04:07.A short while ago, I asked Reuben Young from campaign group
:04:08. > :04:09.Priced Out whether he was surprised prices had risen so steeply.
:04:10. > :04:11.Home ownership has become unobtainable for average people.
:04:12. > :04:13.Key workers like nurses, teachers, junior doctors,
:04:14. > :04:21.simply can't find any way to buy a home in many areas of England.
:04:22. > :04:24.They are increasingly finding themselves in a
:04:25. > :04:26.broken private rented sector, spending over half their income on a
:04:27. > :04:29.property in which they could be evicted at two months'
:04:30. > :04:36.For those who are lucky enough to buy, London is,
:04:37. > :04:42.Even those people who are living and working in London at the moment.
:04:43. > :04:45.That is why, in places like Luton, the house prices are rocketing
:04:46. > :04:48.Should we have foreseen this situation, given how
:04:49. > :04:55.All around the Home Counties and the South East,
:04:56. > :04:58.they are experiencing high house price rises and Luton is
:04:59. > :05:08.I suppose the reason it may be rising faster than others
:05:09. > :05:14.Would you class Luton on affordable any more?
:05:15. > :05:17.Well, it is a very tricky question to answer, because everything
:05:18. > :05:20.Like most of London and the South East, the
:05:21. > :05:22.average person cannot afford to buy the home
:05:23. > :05:25.they would like to buy in Luton. So, no.
:05:26. > :05:27.Luton has been earmarked by the government as an area that
:05:28. > :05:30.will be given money to build new homes specifically
:05:31. > :05:40.Is the government now getting to grips with the housing shortage?
:05:41. > :05:42.No, the government is not unfortunately.
:05:43. > :05:44.They have taken some steps in the direction,
:05:45. > :05:46.but starter homes are not one of them.
:05:47. > :05:52.Ostensibly, it is a 20% discount on a home for a first-time buyer.
:05:53. > :05:58.If these homes are in high demand because they are cheaper,
:05:59. > :06:00.then more people will be willing to pay more for them,
:06:01. > :06:04.so developers ar just going to mark up the price in the first instance.
:06:05. > :06:14.A 38-year-old man has been charged with dangerous driving,
:06:15. > :06:17.after two men were killed in Yaxley near Peterborough.
:06:18. > :06:19.Best friends Thomas Fletcher and Thomas Northam were
:06:20. > :06:21.walking along the road when they were hit by a car
:06:22. > :06:28.Richard Frost, of Dorset Avenue in Chelmsford, appeared before
:06:29. > :06:36.magistrates this afternoon and has been remanded in custody.
:06:37. > :06:39.A 15-year-old boy accused of killing a Polish man in Harlow last summer
:06:40. > :06:40.has appeared at Chelmsford magistrates court.
:06:41. > :06:43.Arek Yoshvik died after becoming involved in a violent confrontation
:06:44. > :06:52.with a group of youths. Ben Ando was in court.
:06:53. > :06:55.The 40-year-old Polish national was sitting outside
:06:56. > :06:57.a pizza takeaway in this shopping precinct in Harlow late last August
:06:58. > :06:59.when he was involved in a violent confrontation
:07:00. > :07:09.He was knocked to the ground and died two days later in hospital.
:07:10. > :07:11.The killing generated national media interest and Polish dignitaries
:07:12. > :07:15.were among many who attended a memorial in the town.
:07:16. > :07:19.A Polish police officer was sent to assist the investigation.
:07:20. > :07:25.Five were later told they would face no further action,
:07:26. > :07:33.but one appeared in court today to face the charge of manslaughter.
:07:34. > :07:35.During the short ten-minute hearing the slightly-built teenager,
:07:36. > :07:38.wearing a black puffer jacket and grey shirt, was told this case
:07:39. > :07:42.is too serious for a youth court and had to be sent to the Crown
:07:43. > :07:45.He was asked if he understood and he nodded.
:07:46. > :07:48.He was also told he had to continue to observe bail conditions,
:07:49. > :07:56.The boy did not enter a plea today and must appear
:07:57. > :08:03.Next tonight, Alzheimer's is often considered to be
:08:04. > :08:05.a disease of the elderly, but one mother-of-two
:08:06. > :08:08.from Northamptonshire has been diagnosed at the age of just 36.
:08:09. > :08:11.Carla Bramall from Rushden, is now bed-bound and lives in a care home.
:08:12. > :08:14.She is one of just 450 people in the world with a rare genetic
:08:15. > :08:25.form of the disease. Stuart Ratcliffe reports.
:08:26. > :08:29.For the last year to 14-15 months, she has got to the point where she
:08:30. > :08:35.is unable to move or care for herself to any degree.
:08:36. > :08:39.Carla is a mother of two young children.
:08:40. > :08:42.Now, it is her mother Rita who cares for them.
:08:43. > :08:44.Rita's husband, Carla's dad, also died from Alzheimers
:08:45. > :08:50.It was hard when it was my husband, but
:08:51. > :08:53.when it is your flesh and blood, it is 100 times harder.
:08:54. > :08:59.Now, Carla's brother is living with the knowledge that he has a 50%
:09:00. > :09:04.It is something I have known about since I was nine.
:09:05. > :09:14.that it was a possibility it could happen.
:09:15. > :09:16.As I grew older, it became more apparent and, obviously,
:09:17. > :09:36.I had to think I was probably going to be me. How have you managed to
:09:37. > :09:42.cope with that? Our condition is extremely rear. Work is ongoing to
:09:43. > :09:50.raise awareness and to support the supported families. It is a genetic
:09:51. > :09:59.mutation passed down the generations through a family. It is very rear.
:10:00. > :10:06.Maybe only 500 families worldwide. But obviously, with others
:10:07. > :10:08.associating dementia with the older age group, it is particularly
:10:09. > :10:17.harrowing when it is people saw young who are affected. Every day,
:10:18. > :10:25.the gore of to the hospital, a visit that Carla will not even remember.
:10:26. > :10:29.It is just important to others for us to know that we have been near.
:10:30. > :10:31.A cyclist who smashed his jaw in a road accident
:10:32. > :10:33.is being helped back to fitness by 3-D printing technology.
:10:34. > :10:36.Doctors have used the special printers to help them build
:10:37. > :10:37.a replacement jaw more cheaply and quickly.
:10:38. > :10:39.And for George Boden, who lives near Stansted,
:10:40. > :10:42.it has meant a faster recovery and a better end result.
:10:43. > :10:50.Kate Silver's report contains some graphic images of surgery.
:10:51. > :10:53.George Boden was a keen cyclist when, in 2011, he had an accident
:10:54. > :11:02.I was out for a training spin and I slammed into a piece
:11:03. > :11:14.Not a good idea to hit something with your chin at 30 miles an hour,
:11:15. > :11:20.Doctors used bone from his shoulder and a metal
:11:21. > :11:23.They then covered it with a skin flap.
:11:24. > :11:25.But two issues remained, he had no bottom teeth
:11:26. > :11:33.It's very difficult to speak when you have the opening
:11:34. > :11:42.At a centre in north London, this team put in a CT
:11:43. > :11:50.This is basically an oven, filled with nitrogen and powdered nylon.
:11:51. > :11:54.It is already at a very hot temperature, but when the laser hits
:11:55. > :11:57.the nylon it pushes it to melting point.
:11:58. > :11:59.Here there are making an engineering product, layer by layer.
:12:00. > :12:02.And here in the cooling station is a 3D printing
:12:03. > :12:09.It is a pretty exciting time for surgery.
:12:10. > :12:11.George's doctor, Ian Hutchinson, says 3D printing has
:12:12. > :12:24.We use it to actually design exactly what we're going to take.
:12:25. > :12:30.Apart from planning the operation, George's doctors also used the model
:12:31. > :12:38.to make bespoke teeth implants, perfectly fitted for his new jaw.
:12:39. > :12:44.The technology helps to maintain a sense of hope.
:12:45. > :12:48.First of all, if you know there's a solution you keep
:12:49. > :12:50.going and secondly, red wine helps enormously.
:12:51. > :12:53.There is also that passion for cycling, which survives in spite
:12:54. > :13:04.Plans for a series of rush-hour road closures in Cambridge
:13:05. > :13:07.That is the decision from the Greater Cambridge City Deal Board.
:13:08. > :13:09.They had proposed the idea to tackle congestion,
:13:10. > :13:12.They will now be looking at pollution charging
:13:13. > :13:21.and ideas to make the city a Clean Air Zone.
:13:22. > :13:24.And finally, from us it is 20 years since we began broadcasting this
:13:25. > :13:27.local version of the Look East news service from Cambridge.
:13:28. > :13:30.Back in 1997, we were covering the cold snap, including this gas
:13:31. > :13:33.explosion blamed on a frozen water pipe, and these narrow boat owners
:13:34. > :13:35.whose boats became frozen in the canal in Northampton.
:13:36. > :13:37.They did manage to make the most of it,
:13:38. > :13:48.However long you have been watching, thank you for you company,
:13:49. > :13:50.I am back at 10.30pm, but here is David and Suzie
:13:51. > :14:05.If you're an Ed Sheeran fan, you'll love his new song dedicated
:14:06. > :14:13.And the Posh players heading to Stamford Bridge to take
:14:14. > :14:20.This week on Look East we've been reporting on the problems disabled
:14:21. > :14:22.people have using lavatories on trains and at railway stations.
:14:23. > :14:24.You've been contacting us in large numbers.
:14:25. > :14:33.And the overwhelming message is that the service isn't good enough.
:14:34. > :14:36.Away from trains, there is one small crumb of comfort
:14:37. > :14:38.in the shape of what are called Changing Places toilets.
:14:39. > :14:41.They're bigger than normal disabled loos ...and they can be particularly
:14:42. > :14:42.useful for parents looking after disabled youngsters.
:14:43. > :14:56.Vela Morrison and her six-year-old daughter Eilidh are on a shopping
:14:57. > :14:58.trip to the grand Arcade in Cambridge.
:14:59. > :15:00.Ailey sometimes needs changing when the family are out.
:15:01. > :15:02.But an ordinary disabled toilet doesn't meet their needs.
:15:03. > :15:04.A Changing Places toilet is much better.
:15:05. > :15:06.What makes this different from a ordinary disabled toilet?
:15:07. > :15:13.The main difference is a changing bench.
:15:14. > :15:15.For people who have continence issues.
:15:16. > :15:18.And a hoist for people who can't self transfer between wheelchair and
:15:19. > :15:28.The Changing Places campaign was started in 2006 to help
:15:29. > :15:30.an estimated 250,000 people who, like Eilidh,
:15:31. > :15:45.The only way we could use a standard disabled
:15:46. > :15:48.would be on the floor, and that would mean lifting her
:15:49. > :15:52.The older she gets, the harder that becomes for both of us.
:15:53. > :15:55.Across the country, there are 909 changing
:15:56. > :16:01.Nicole looks after her seven-year-old grandson Gabriel.
:16:02. > :16:03.She is frustrated that there is not one changing
:16:04. > :16:12.People don't realise the frustration I have sometimes.
:16:13. > :16:18.If you go into a shop and say, can I change him?
:16:19. > :16:22.A lot of places have been very accommodating and
:16:23. > :16:25.I've changed him on a folding table somewhere.
:16:26. > :16:31.From the city centre, it is a ten minute
:16:32. > :16:33.walk to find the nearest Changing Places toilet in Norwich.
:16:34. > :16:35.Through a park, across a busy road and follow
:16:36. > :16:38.As conveniences go, it's not very convenient.
:16:39. > :16:40.People are actually just not going places, not
:16:41. > :16:45.They are being excluded from things because it is too awkward and
:16:46. > :16:51.Changing Places toilets are changing things slowly.
:16:52. > :16:55.But for many disabled people and their carers,
:16:56. > :16:57.getting access to good toilet facilities remains a
:16:58. > :17:05.And thanks to all of you who got in touch.
:17:06. > :17:07.If there's a story you think we need to investigate,
:17:08. > :17:19.Next tonight, the last of our films looking at the year ahead.
:17:20. > :17:21.So far we've covered business, Brexit and council devolution.
:17:22. > :17:25.And for athletes this year's focus is the World Athletics Championships
:17:26. > :17:27.and the accompanying Para Athletics Championships.
:17:28. > :17:29.It's the biggest event to be held in London
:17:30. > :17:34.Among those hoping to reach new heights,
:17:35. > :17:38.Jonathan Broom-Edwards from Colchester.
:17:39. > :17:41.This from our Sports Editor, Jonathan Park.
:17:42. > :17:49.A New Year, but for a high jumper, the same old
:17:50. > :17:53.Working on the basics is essential to take on the world in
:17:54. > :17:55.I'm expecting the atmosphere to be huge.
:17:56. > :18:01.I know how huge it was as a spectator in
:18:02. > :18:05.2012, so to be in there with people watching,
:18:06. > :18:12.Jonathan Broom-Edwards, a Paralympian with added spring
:18:13. > :18:17.London is calling now and the World Championships.
:18:18. > :18:20.The biggest sporting event to take place in the city
:18:21. > :18:23.Normally, after an Olympic year, we have a bit more of
:18:24. > :18:31.And that work Championships in terms of
:18:32. > :18:34.preparation for the next Olympic cycle, we would do a lot more work
:18:35. > :18:37.This year, I can't afford to do that.
:18:38. > :18:39.This year, we have had to really keep the screw tight.
:18:40. > :18:42.Jonathan, who is from Colchester, is one of a number of Olympic and
:18:43. > :18:45.Paralympic athletes from our region charing to the Olympic Park.
:18:46. > :18:48.Some, like sprinter Johnny Peacock, are
:18:49. > :18:52.Others, like long jumper Greg Rutherford have a point to prove.
:18:53. > :18:55.Only bronze in the Olympics and work to be done.
:18:56. > :18:57.I'm going to adjust your purpose to try and get you as
:18:58. > :19:01.The moment you feel you are straight, there is a
:19:02. > :19:03.slight forward lean, and that is coming from the pelvis.
:19:04. > :19:05.Back to Jonathan, who combines high jump
:19:06. > :19:07.with his other passion, fixing people's broken bodies.
:19:08. > :19:09.A profession he chose which helps them understand
:19:10. > :19:17.He was born with a club foot, something not always
:19:18. > :19:21.I am the sort of person that I don't like to be told
:19:22. > :19:23.And going into actually being classified
:19:24. > :19:28.It was like a wow, should I be doing something different?
:19:29. > :19:31.I am amongst disabled athletes, you know?
:19:32. > :19:36.I had only just seen it as a gammy foot.
:19:37. > :19:43.The coach has carefully adapted Jonathan's training programme to
:19:44. > :19:48.If I can get 50 or 60% out of that ankle
:19:49. > :19:50.joint, compared to a normal joint, I am doing well.
:19:51. > :19:53.That would have a massive effect on Jonathan's high jumping.
:19:54. > :19:56.The left side, even though he takes off on
:19:57. > :20:00.Jonathan knocked out all but one of his
:20:01. > :20:06.He helps in London to be the undisputed champion.
:20:07. > :20:09.It's a big weekend for football fans.
:20:10. > :20:12.The third round of the FA Cup - the moment the big clubs get
:20:13. > :20:17.involved and the moment the small clubs hope to cause an upset.
:20:18. > :20:20.Here in the East, we've got Peterborough from League One.
:20:21. > :20:24.Heading to Premier League leaders Chelsea on Sunday.
:20:25. > :20:27.Tom Williams has spent the day with the Posh players, gearing up
:20:28. > :20:32.For many of these players, Sunday's tie
:20:33. > :20:34.is not just the match of the
:20:35. > :20:39.Still 48 hours away, important to stay cool, keep loose, before
:20:40. > :20:41.testing themselves against the Premier League's number one team.
:20:42. > :20:52.It is a chance for you to go there, for
:20:53. > :20:56.the players anyway, to be on the same pitch with world-class
:20:57. > :21:06.And it is things you dream of when you are younger.
:21:07. > :21:19.David Farrell and goalkeeper Mark Tyler both
:21:20. > :21:22.Even then, Chelsea's team was brimming
:21:23. > :21:26.That was what I remember about the day.
:21:27. > :21:37.It was probably the only time you to enjoy
:21:38. > :21:43.We came off the pitch proud of ourselves.
:21:44. > :21:46.The fans were proud of as and the management team, so it was a
:21:47. > :21:49.The boys have got to go there and enjoy it.
:21:50. > :21:55.If we can stick it out for an hour, you know what I mean,
:21:56. > :22:00.Peterborough lose money every year, so victory in the last round
:22:01. > :22:03.With teams sharing profits of gate receipts,
:22:04. > :22:10.I spoke to Bradford, who a couple of years ago
:22:11. > :22:19.Roughly, with all the spin offs, hopefully, the club will make
:22:20. > :22:26.Win or lose, it is money that is not in the budget.
:22:27. > :22:28.Money at the manager will help to invest in
