Hello, welcome to the first Look East of a new week. | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
?100 million to spend on social housing in Cambridgeshire. | :00:07. | :00:09. | |
But who will benefit most, the cities or the countryside? | :00:10. | :00:12. | |
A murder update as Crimewatch helps in the hunt for the | :00:13. | :00:14. | |
No overtaking - why lorries are being banned from the fast lane | :00:15. | :00:19. | |
And how working dogs trained here are helping | :00:20. | :00:25. | |
keep a watchful eye over Africa's endangered wildlife. | :00:26. | :00:38. | |
First tonight - it's the first day of spring | :00:39. | :00:42. | |
and the dawn of a new political era for Cambridgeshire. | :00:43. | :00:44. | |
The new devolved authority met officially for the first time today | :00:45. | :00:52. | |
in Wisbech, it'll make decisions on transport, | :00:53. | :00:54. | |
This morning it received 100 million pounds in its bank | :00:55. | :01:01. | |
But as Mousumi Bakshi reports, the needs of city dwellers | :01:02. | :01:05. | |
are markedly different to those living in the Fens. | :01:06. | :01:07. | |
Seven years after her search began, Katie Phillips finally has the home | :01:08. | :01:14. | |
Priced out of Cambridge, the mother of two moved | :01:15. | :01:19. | |
into this affordable housing scheme in Caxton near Camborne last month. | :01:20. | :01:24. | |
We went on a list to hopefully get given a house, bid every week, every | :01:25. | :01:29. | |
month, any time we could on anything because we couldn't afford to move | :01:30. | :01:33. | |
out because we were paying so much and private renting. | :01:34. | :01:40. | |
Then after seven years, we got this opportunity | :01:41. | :01:43. | |
and it has been amazing, I just feel so lucky to get given it. | :01:44. | :01:46. | |
Katie lives in South Cambridgeshire, one of the most expensive places in | :01:47. | :01:50. | |
the UK and so it makes sense that devolution money will be | :01:51. | :01:53. | |
But concerns that other parts of the county will | :01:54. | :01:59. | |
We don't just want to build a lot of affordable | :02:00. | :02:03. | |
housing in one place, we | :02:04. | :02:04. | |
want to build the infrastructure that will enable people in key | :02:05. | :02:07. | |
roles, key jobs such as, you know, nurses | :02:08. | :02:09. | |
and hospital workers and | :02:10. | :02:11. | |
teachers perhaps even, that they can have an affordable house in one part | :02:12. | :02:16. | |
of the county and they can quickly get to work in an economic hotspot. | :02:17. | :02:20. | |
So if you want to get on to the housing ladder, | :02:21. | :02:22. | |
how far do you have to leap just to get onto the first rung? | :02:23. | :02:27. | |
New figures suggest people working in Fenland take home an | :02:28. | :02:30. | |
In South Cambridgeshire, the weekly wage is around ?200 more. | :02:31. | :02:39. | |
But when it comes to buying power, people in | :02:40. | :02:42. | |
South Cambridgeshire are relatively worse off, | :02:43. | :02:45. | |
with the average price of a detached house | :02:46. | :02:46. | |
of a similar property in Fenland. | :02:47. | :02:54. | |
Today, the authority that will be headed up by the new mayor agreed on | :02:55. | :03:01. | |
a ?170 million affordable housing package with at least ?70 million | :03:02. | :03:06. | |
concentrate in Cambridge. The governments of the rest of the money | :03:07. | :03:08. | |
was filtered through to the part of the county that need it most. | :03:09. | :03:13. | |
It is not about Cambridge, it is about not be areas that most people | :03:14. | :03:17. | |
have heard of, it is about the areas that perhaps in the past have not | :03:18. | :03:20. | |
got the support they needed and now it's a real opportunity for powers | :03:21. | :03:24. | |
and the right leadership to make a difference. The challenge of dealing | :03:25. | :03:32. | |
with Cambridge will be one of the challenges for the new map. We have | :03:33. | :03:37. | |
been with beach today, when the most underfunded up deprived part of the | :03:38. | :03:40. | |
country. What matters to people here is transport. As well as transport, | :03:41. | :03:44. | |
the combined authority will have responsibility for boosting economic | :03:45. | :03:47. | |
growth but it is low-cost housing that has made a difference to people | :03:48. | :03:49. | |
like Katie. So will everyone get a fair share | :03:50. | :03:50. | |
of attention and funding? I asked the leader of | :03:51. | :03:55. | |
Fenland District Council, John Clark, what he wants | :03:56. | :03:57. | |
from the new authority to deliver. I think first of all it has | :03:58. | :04:02. | |
got to be transport. We want to be connected | :04:03. | :04:04. | |
to Cambridge and Peterborough, which we are connected | :04:05. | :04:08. | |
to Peterborough but Cambridge is the main thing that we feel | :04:09. | :04:13. | |
it would improve this area by being under an hour | :04:14. | :04:19. | |
to get to Cambridge. And is it train lines or roads | :04:20. | :04:21. | |
you want investment in? We would like to see it go | :04:22. | :04:24. | |
from Thorney directly with a river crossing all the way to Wisbech, | :04:25. | :04:30. | |
but we would also like to see buses improved and we would also like to | :04:31. | :04:33. | |
see the rail link direct from So how will you ensure | :04:34. | :04:36. | |
that your voice is heard as loudly as, say, | :04:37. | :04:40. | |
Cambridge City Council's voice? How will you make sure | :04:41. | :04:42. | |
that there is a fair allocation I think first of all it | :04:43. | :04:44. | |
will be down to lobbying the mayor, the mayor will have a lot | :04:45. | :04:48. | |
of the ultimate decisions to make on But today we have had | :04:49. | :04:52. | |
the allocation for the 100 million for housing, | :04:53. | :05:01. | |
all the councils have talked, it's all been allocated and it's | :05:02. | :05:03. | |
all been agreed. So what's politics like in | :05:04. | :05:05. | |
a meeting like that? Because obviously you have got | :05:06. | :05:07. | |
politicians from cities, from more rural areas, different | :05:08. | :05:09. | |
political backgrounds as well. I don't think there has been any | :05:10. | :05:12. | |
conflict whatsoever. As we say, we know | :05:13. | :05:20. | |
the city is under a Labour administration and the rest are | :05:21. | :05:26. | |
Conservatives and we have got the But up until yet, | :05:27. | :05:28. | |
sitting around the table, politics hasn't entered | :05:29. | :05:31. | |
into it at all. It's what is best for Cambridgeshire | :05:32. | :05:35. | |
and Peterborough and how do we deliver it | :05:36. | :05:38. | |
and I am really pleased that politics, | :05:39. | :05:41. | |
at the moment, is not taking | :05:42. | :05:42. | |
a part in that. And if you want to join the debate - | :05:43. | :05:44. | |
the BBC Cambridgeshire bus will be in Ely market tomorrow, | :05:45. | :05:48. | |
Cambridge Market on Wednesday and St John's Square | :05:49. | :05:50. | |
in Peterborough on Friday. Detectives investigating the murder | :05:51. | :05:55. | |
of a woman from Milton Keynes are due to release new CCTV images | :05:56. | :05:58. | |
on Crimewatch later, Hang Leung died 11 days | :05:59. | :06:03. | |
after she was attacked at home during a burglary | :06:04. | :06:08. | |
on the 31st of January. Police are searching for six men | :06:09. | :06:12. | |
involved in the break in. A former police officer, | :06:13. | :06:15. | |
wife and mother. 64-year-old Hang Leung left | :06:16. | :06:22. | |
Hong Kong in the early 90s and settled here in Milton Keynes where | :06:23. | :06:28. | |
she ran a Chinese takeaway business At around six o'clock | :06:29. | :06:31. | |
on the 31st of January, she was home alone when a man | :06:32. | :06:37. | |
knocked on the door. When she went to answer it, | :06:38. | :06:41. | |
the man and five others forced their way into her home before | :06:42. | :06:44. | |
stealing cash and designer goods. Mrs Leung was pinned down | :06:45. | :06:48. | |
while they ransacked the house. Police released this image to show | :06:49. | :06:51. | |
the extent of the damage. The next day, still | :06:52. | :06:56. | |
traumatised, Mrs Leung was She died from her injuries 11 | :06:57. | :06:57. | |
days after the ordeal. For me, when I think | :06:58. | :07:05. | |
of burglary, I think of someone Objects, things that | :07:06. | :07:07. | |
can be replaced. But for my family, this burglary | :07:08. | :07:18. | |
has meant we have had a Police are trying | :07:19. | :07:21. | |
to track down several personal items, including this gold | :07:22. | :07:27. | |
Rolex Oyster watch and Mrs Leung's long service police | :07:28. | :07:30. | |
medal from Hong Kong. Detectives have described this | :07:31. | :07:35. | |
as a despicable crime Some of her neighbours who I have | :07:36. | :07:38. | |
spoken to and didn't want to appear on camera have expressed their shock | :07:39. | :07:47. | |
and sadness at what happened in Detectives are keen to speak | :07:48. | :07:50. | |
to anyone who may have seen six men acting suspiciously in a car | :07:51. | :07:55. | |
travelling between Milton Keynes and Aylesbury on the evening of Tuesday | :07:56. | :07:58. | |
the 31st of January. Katharine Da Costa, BBC | :07:59. | :08:02. | |
Look East, in Milton Keynes. A multi-million pound refurbishment | :08:03. | :08:07. | |
of Peterborough's main shopping ?8 million is being spent | :08:08. | :08:13. | |
on improving lighting, doors A further 30 million | :08:14. | :08:21. | |
will be spent later on a multi-screen cinema, | :08:22. | :08:26. | |
plus new shops and restaurants. The work will take place overnight | :08:27. | :08:28. | |
when the centre is shut. Work on the cinema complex | :08:29. | :08:31. | |
is expected to start next year, Our trade at this moment in time | :08:32. | :08:34. | |
has been very buoyant. This will just add to it | :08:35. | :08:37. | |
and this will add to the experience of the customer and | :08:38. | :08:40. | |
therefore it changes the perception of what Queensgate has | :08:41. | :08:43. | |
been looking like. As I said, we're over 34 years | :08:44. | :08:45. | |
old now so it's about time Lorry drivers are facing a ban | :08:46. | :08:48. | |
on overtaking along stretches Highways England is introducing | :08:49. | :08:51. | |
the restrictions next week to improve traffic flow, | :08:52. | :08:55. | |
especially near Stansted Airport. But, perhaps unsurprisingly, | :08:56. | :08:59. | |
some truckers aren't happy, Long stretches of the M11 are just | :09:00. | :09:03. | |
two lanes, that means when lorries overtake each other, a big tailback | :09:04. | :09:11. | |
can build up behind them. So Highways England | :09:12. | :09:15. | |
is going to restrict lorries overtaking during the day on uphill | :09:16. | :09:21. | |
stretches of the motorway. Signs are going to go | :09:22. | :09:29. | |
up saying any vehicle over seven and a half tonnes can't | :09:30. | :09:31. | |
use lane two between seven and the morning and seven | :09:32. | :09:34. | |
in the evening. The lorry overtaking restriction | :09:35. | :09:36. | |
would be in place between junction eight at Bishop's | :09:37. | :09:38. | |
Stortford near Stansted Highways England believes it | :09:39. | :09:39. | |
will ease congestion. But at a nearby service station, | :09:40. | :09:47. | |
some HGV drivers are saying not being able to overtake | :09:48. | :09:50. | |
would hold them up. If you get stuck behind a massive | :09:51. | :09:53. | |
queue of trucks that are all going 40 mph, when you could be doing, | :09:54. | :09:56. | |
especially when I'm empty, 56, it makes quite an impact | :09:57. | :10:03. | |
on what time you can get there. Some of the trucks, you know, | :10:04. | :10:09. | |
they're weighted at 44 plus tonnes, they are going to take a long time | :10:10. | :10:12. | |
to get up them hills. They could be down | :10:13. | :10:15. | |
to anything, 20 mph? All lorries do 56 mile an hour | :10:16. | :10:17. | |
and some are a bit slower and it's and, you know, it's going | :10:18. | :10:21. | |
to make it even worse. You've got vehicles with odd weights | :10:22. | :10:25. | |
and loads and if it is a slight incline, it is surprising how much | :10:26. | :10:30. | |
it can slow you down. And then you are stuck probably | :10:31. | :10:33. | |
behind 20, 30 lorries. A daytime overtaking ban for lorries | :10:34. | :10:35. | |
is already in force on this stretch of road, the A14 | :10:36. | :10:40. | |
in Northamptonshire. Highways England says lorry | :10:41. | :10:48. | |
speeds haven't changed but Lorry drivers caught | :10:49. | :10:50. | |
overtaking where they Back on the M11, the | :10:51. | :10:52. | |
overtaking restriction is expected to start | :10:53. | :10:56. | |
at the end of this month. One lorry driver told Look East | :10:57. | :10:58. | |
the best way of tackling congestion here would be widening | :10:59. | :11:03. | |
this section of the M11 to three A bit of sport now - | :11:04. | :11:06. | |
and in ice hockey, MK Lightning are celebrating winning | :11:07. | :11:13. | |

in their 15-year history. who has played for the club since | :11:19. | :11:19. | |

regional weather forecast. We have the latest news off the | :11:50. | :11:53. | |
pitch from Norwich city, and how working dogs trained here are | :11:54. | :11:56. | |
helping to protect Africa's wildlife against poachers. | :11:57. | :12:02. | |
Next tonight, we're back on the road for our Brexit roadtrip - | :12:03. | :12:04. | |
nine months after the EU Referendum, we are finding out if people | :12:05. | :12:07. | |
have changed their minds about leaving the EU... | :12:08. | :12:11. | |
Today we were told the Prime Minister will start the Brexit | :12:12. | :12:19. | |
process on March 29th, when she triggers Article 50. | :12:20. | :12:21. | |
Our Brexit Mini is on the final straight | :12:22. | :12:29. | |
and is heading into Suffolk, where the Port of Felixstowe | :12:30. | :12:31. | |
is the UK's container gateway to Europe and the rest | :12:32. | :12:34. | |
Careful manoeuvring by the Estelle Maersk brings it | :12:35. | :12:37. | |
At 175,000 tonnes, carrying 15,000 containers, it's not an easy task. | :12:38. | :12:42. | |
Free-flowing freight through our ports is critical to the economy. | :12:43. | :12:46. | |
Containers are opened, the good see the light of day, | :12:47. | :12:57. | |
Containers are opened, the goods see the light of day, | :12:58. | :12:59. | |
There are no further inspections necessary. | :13:00. | :13:08. | |
A clear road ahead to the rest of the UK or the EU. | :13:09. | :13:13. | |
Felixstowe Port has expanded in the last decade. | :13:14. | :13:15. | |
This has allowed it to manage 44% of the country's container traffic, | :13:16. | :13:18. | |
coming from over 400 ports around the world. | :13:19. | :13:20. | |
One quarter of the trade comes from the EU. | :13:21. | :13:28. | |
When you are driving here at the quayside | :13:29. | :13:32. | |
at the Port of Felixstowe, you can't ignore the size | :13:33. | :13:35. | |
of the ships or the massive scale of the operation here. | :13:36. | :13:37. | |
You can imagine that one slight change will have | :13:38. | :13:40. | |
At the moment, the security checks are enough. | :13:41. | :13:50. | |
If the government, after Brexit, says that they need to increase | :13:51. | :13:52. | |
the security checks by 25%, they must make sure | :13:53. | :13:54. | |
that they have the funds and people in place to do those. | :13:55. | :14:01. | |
It is not just the port that will have to put extra | :14:02. | :14:05. | |
resources into the business, it is the customs and excise that | :14:06. | :14:08. | |
will have to increase their staff to make sure they have people | :14:09. | :14:11. | |
in place to check the containers and the cargo, and the paperwork. | :14:12. | :14:19. | |
Those importing goods are feeling the pressure too. | :14:20. | :14:25. | |
In Ipswich, Miguel and his wife, Olga, opened their Portuguese | :14:26. | :14:28. | |
cafe last September, just two months after the UK decided | :14:29. | :14:31. | |
I'm concerned with how difficult it would be in the negotiations, | :14:32. | :14:43. | |
to the products that come from the EU into the UK. | :14:44. | :14:50. | |
But it could have a detrimental affect on the consumer, | :14:51. | :14:59. | |
but I hope it will not be that harsh. | :15:00. | :15:01. | |
He is optimistic for the future and has plans | :15:02. | :15:04. | |
This area of Ipswich has a long history of welcoming communities, | :15:05. | :15:08. | |
That is despite the local MP campaigning to remain. | :15:09. | :15:16. | |
Although I was disappointed, my job is to make sure that Ipswich | :15:17. | :15:20. | |
prospers and Suffolk prospers, and East Anglia prospers, | :15:21. | :15:23. | |
My vote is the same as everyone else's, and I promised people | :15:24. | :15:30. | |
when I was campaigning that this is what I believe in. | :15:31. | :15:33. | |
But if you vote the other way, I will make sure I do my very best | :15:34. | :15:37. | |
which is what I'm completely focused on at the moment. | :15:38. | :15:41. | |
There are opportunities and we have to make them happen. | :15:42. | :15:43. | |
There is optimism and uncertainty here in Suffolk, over | :15:44. | :15:45. | |
Tomorrow we'll be in Essex on our last stop on the Brexit minitour, | :15:46. | :15:53. | |
and we will be seeing if they are embracing | :15:54. | :15:55. | |
the opportunities, or driving for the hills. | :15:56. | :15:57. | |
A year ago, we met a former military dog trainer from Norfolk. | :15:58. | :16:11. | |
For the first time, he was training dogs in the UK, | :16:12. | :16:13. | |
Daryll Pleasants believes if the poachers aren't stopped, | :16:14. | :16:16. | |
elephants and rhinos will be extinct in less than a decade. | :16:17. | :16:21. | |
The three dogs are now fully operational in Africa. | :16:22. | :16:23. | |
But over the last 12 months they've been trained to sniff out ivory, | :16:24. | :16:26. | |
to stop a poacher in his tracks, and have come face | :16:27. | :16:30. | |
This special report from Debbie Tubby. | :16:31. | :16:39. | |
Polaris is one of the three dogs trained in the UK | :16:40. | :16:42. | |
by Darryl Pleasants, sitting on the back of this truck | :16:43. | :16:44. | |
in Zimbabwe, being chased by one of the animals | :16:45. | :16:46. | |
Perhaps not quite the welcome he was expecting, but their | :16:47. | :16:51. | |
How successful have your dogs been so far in Africa? | :16:52. | :16:56. | |
We've seen a definite downward turn in poaching. | :16:57. | :17:00. | |
Because, there is an inherent fear of dogs in Africa. | :17:01. | :17:03. | |
We sent out a very clear message to everyone else that if you come | :17:04. | :17:06. | |
onto the Conservancy and you intend to poach, you're not going to leave. | :17:07. | :17:10. | |
It was in April last year we filmed Polaris's brothers Bo and Rogue | :17:11. | :17:13. | |
checking into Norwich Airport to acclimatise to | :17:14. | :17:15. | |
Similar to the one they'll use while working in the African bush. | :17:16. | :17:26. | |
Three months later, and Joshua Kobal steps into the shoes of a poacher. | :17:27. | :17:29. | |
He is volunteering to be chased and bitten by the dogs | :17:30. | :17:32. | |
Do you train the dog to bite, or do you train it to just hold? | :17:33. | :17:37. | |
All of the dogs target the arms, so we do inside bites | :17:38. | :17:42. | |
What we try and teach the dogs to do is target what they are offered. | :17:43. | :17:58. | |
At 30 mph, the momentum lifts the dog off the ground | :17:59. | :18:01. | |
and with a bite like a hydraulic press, there's no chance of escape. | :18:02. | :18:04. | |
They are wearing armour, whereas a human being, | :18:05. | :18:06. | |
as he's moving through the ground, you have a front profile. | :18:07. | :18:08. | |
With the armour as well, we've never had a problem. | :18:09. | :18:15. | |
We've never had a dog that's even been injured operationally | :18:16. | :18:17. | |
Maria wasn't so lucky, shot 17 times by poachers. | :18:18. | :18:21. | |
Her horn was hacked off while she was still alive. | :18:22. | :18:23. | |
Maria died in Zimbabwe two years before Darryl's dogs arrived here. | :18:24. | :18:27. | |
That's why he is so desperate no more animals lose their lives. | :18:28. | :18:32. | |
It is the height of the summer, and Rogue and Polaris | :18:33. | :18:35. | |
get a trip to the zoo, a chance to meet the animals | :18:36. | :18:43. | |
they will see in Africa, but hopefully they | :18:44. | :18:45. | |
These dogs have got to find out exactly what their position | :18:46. | :18:48. | |
They must know because dogs will generally react | :18:49. | :18:51. | |
We want the dogs to be stable under pressure, | :18:52. | :18:54. | |
we don't want dogs that will run off, suddenly chasing wildlife. | :18:55. | :18:57. | |
After months of hard work, Rogue and Polaris finally | :18:58. | :18:59. | |
Their new home is this Conservancy, and it is also home to 200 | :19:00. | :19:06. | |
I think it's quite an irresponsible attitude, to turn around and say, | :19:07. | :19:13. | |
I want to save the world and make a difference. | :19:14. | :19:15. | |
As a team, across the broard spectrum of conservation, | :19:16. | :19:27. | |
It's making a difference to future generations. | :19:28. | :19:32. | |
I have to say, I don't want my grandchildren to look | :19:33. | :19:34. | |
Darryl's dogs continued training, even though | :19:35. | :19:37. | |
With man and dog working together to save animals that could otherwise | :19:38. | :19:41. | |
Some brilliant pictures there. You can see more of those dogs as young | :19:42. | :19:51. | |
puppies at the start of their journey in | :19:52. | :19:57. | |
Ed Balls, the chairman of Norwich City football club, | :19:58. | :20:06. | |
has told Look East the club is close to appointing a new | :20:07. | :20:09. | |
The club have outlined a new behind-the-scenes structure - | :20:10. | :20:12. | |
this involves scrapping the Chief Executive's | :20:13. | :20:13. | |
The Sporting Director will also lead the search for a new head coach | :20:14. | :20:17. | |
Fans on Saturday came to watch the same team but a different looking | :20:18. | :20:22. | |
club. The manager and Chief Executive both gone, seemingly gone | :20:23. | :20:27. | |
for good and seem to be replaced by a sporting director, Head Coach and | :20:28. | :20:32. | |
new managing director. Do you think the previous Chief Executive's role | :20:33. | :20:37. | |
is a most too big for one person to do effectively? It is challenging in | :20:38. | :20:43. | |
the timescale, you have one person with a lot of responsibility, | :20:44. | :20:46. | |
especially around some parts of the year, like transfer windows. By | :20:47. | :20:51. | |
splitting the role in two, you can focus on your expertise. The new | :20:52. | :20:54. | |
look structure has the sporting director overlooking the whole | :20:55. | :21:00. | |
operation, including recruitment. And a managing director in Taj of | :21:01. | :21:03. | |
business. They report directly to the board, | :21:04. | :21:07. | |
with a Head Coach responsible to the first team working with the | :21:08. | :21:12. | |
technical director and academy manager. | :21:13. | :21:15. | |
The purpose of the new sporting director is that at an advanced | :21:16. | :21:18. | |
stage, they could be named this week and then they will step up the | :21:19. | :21:23. | |
search for a new head coach. The relationship between the two will be | :21:24. | :21:26. | |
so important for this new structure to work. We want to bring in a | :21:27. | :21:31. | |
sporting director who can, in a long-term way, in body B style and | :21:32. | :21:39. | |
value of play, working with the sporting director and head coach who | :21:40. | :21:42. | |
can deliver for the first team. There will be Head coaches and | :21:43. | :21:45. | |
managers unhappy working in that framework. For our club, recruitment | :21:46. | :21:50. | |
and the Academy is vital in how we plan for the future. It is | :21:51. | :21:54. | |
impossible to have a Head Coach running the football side. What do | :21:55. | :21:58. | |
you make of this new setup gritter at its a joke, absolute joke. It's | :21:59. | :22:04. | |
all right, providing the director and manager can speak as one. You | :22:05. | :22:08. | |
have one person making decisions, not two. Whoever the new sporting | :22:09. | :22:11. | |
director is need someone they have worked with before. You will get a | :22:12. | :22:16. | |
new head coach working with the sporting director, what do you | :22:17. | :22:20. | |
think? Well, I don't know about that, I would rather have a manager. | :22:21. | :22:25. | |
Norwich told me they went rush a decision for either role, with this | :22:26. | :22:29. | |
summer so crucial in achieving their long-term goal of top-flight | :22:30. | :22:32. | |
football. After you see our next item, | :22:33. | :22:36. | |
you might think twice before I do everything before -- I do that | :22:37. | :22:45. | |
with everything before I throw it away! | :22:46. | :22:46. | |
A man who enjoys tinkering with old bits of furniture | :22:47. | :22:48. | |
in his workshop, has just discovered a new line in business - | :22:49. | :22:51. | |
Rob Howard lives in Norwich, and loves anything - | :22:52. | :22:55. | |
from an old TV set to a vintage hoover. | :22:56. | :22:57. | |
Now other people's unwanted rubbish is appearing in some top dramas. | :22:58. | :23:01. | |
Set in the 1950s, this BBC drama Young Hyacinth has been watched by | :23:02. | :23:20. | |
thousands. Part of the charm is the original features, including this | :23:21. | :23:24. | |
television from the time. Behind the scenes, many have had the Rob Howley | :23:25. | :23:28. | |
treatment. What started as a hobby has become the go to place the major | :23:29. | :23:35. | |
television production companies. There are a lot of proper houses | :23:36. | :23:39. | |
that higher stuff, but all of our stuff is fully restored and working. | :23:40. | :23:44. | |
If they want a working TV set, they can come to us and choose from our | :23:45. | :23:49. | |
selection. It is surreal, dealing with massive companies, like the BBC | :23:50. | :23:55. | |
and film companies, sometimes I get to go to film sets, and see things | :23:56. | :24:02. | |
being filmed. He has close to 500 TVs and wireless is, dating back to | :24:03. | :24:10. | |
the mid-1920s. This wireless, or radio, in today's world, is from | :24:11. | :24:15. | |
1939. It now echoes the sounds of 2017. | :24:16. | :24:19. | |
This place certainly takes you back in time for this 1950s television | :24:20. | :24:25. | |
set, which recently featured in a BBC production, to this 1930s | :24:26. | :24:29. | |
Hoover, which, believe it or not, still works! Although, to be fair, | :24:30. | :24:40. | |
it sounds more like a lawn mower than vacuum cleaner! Increasingly, | :24:41. | :24:44. | |
we live in a throwaway society but, before you start clearing out your | :24:45. | :24:49. | |
smartphones and gadgets, just think, it could be valuable vintage in | :24:50. | :24:50. | |
future! I should imagine you have a treasure | :24:51. | :25:00. | |
trove in your garage! We have a trove... I don't know about | :25:01. | :25:04. | |
treasure! That was brilliant, they made them so well in those days and | :25:05. | :25:09. | |
it works! They lasted | :25:10. | :25:09. | |
it works! They lasted for ever! Let's have a | :25:10. | :25:12. | |
look at the weather. It is the spring equinox today, | :25:13. | :25:16. | |
however you look at it, we are well and truly into spring. | :25:17. | :25:19. | |
This morning, not an inspiring scene... | :25:20. | :25:25. | |
Things improved, in April's Garden, more in the way of sunshine and blue | :25:26. | :25:30. | |
skies! This cold front works down across the country. Cloud associated | :25:31. | :25:34. | |
with that. Cold weather behind moves through tomorrow night. On the | :25:35. | :25:41. | |
radar, these lines of intense downpours, lying convection, working | :25:42. | :25:45. | |
downwards. 10-15 minutes of heavy rain were given to parts of the | :25:46. | :25:48. | |
region which have all but cleared. For many it is dry and clear and | :25:49. | :25:53. | |
breezy, carrying a couple of showers from the West. Dry overnight and | :25:54. | :25:58. | |
with cold air coming in, it turns chilly. Temperatures down to one or | :25:59. | :26:03. | |
2 degrees by the morning. A fine start on Tuesday, sunshine in the | :26:04. | :26:08. | |
morning. Cloud bubbles up, Fairweather cloud, bringing a couple | :26:09. | :26:12. | |
of isolated showers in from the West and into the afternoon. It does not | :26:13. | :26:17. | |
last long. Highs of nine or 10 degrees, average for this time of | :26:18. | :26:21. | |
year. No pressure dominates on Wednesday, rotating around each | :26:22. | :26:24. | |
other. It gives headaches when it comes to the forecast. Some | :26:25. | :26:29. | |
uncertainty about how quickly this band of rain comes across the | :26:30. | :26:33. | |
region. Potential of rain on Wednesday. Low pressure on Thursday, | :26:34. | :26:40. | |
slipping southwards. A north-easterly winds develops which | :26:41. | :26:45. | |
pushes rain back westwards, through the day on Thursday. Some | :26:46. | :26:49. | |
uncertainty about the position and timing of that. Subject to change | :26:50. | :26:53. | |
over the next few days. On Friday, potential for rain to creep into | :26:54. | :26:58. | |
southern parts of the region. In the north, dry and bright and at the | :26:59. | :27:02. | |
weekend, this low weakens and pulls away. I pressure builds over the top | :27:03. | :27:07. | |
so things settle at the weekend and it should be dried -- high pressure. | :27:08. | :27:12. | |
Pleasant by David chilly and night. In the early hours of Sunday, the | :27:13. | :27:18. | |
clocks go forward as well. He always brings us good weather! | :27:19. | :27:20. | |
Good night! The 24-year-old man | :27:21. | :27:56. | |
has been charged with murder. You made sure an innocent man | :27:57. | :27:59. | |
is charged! What gives you the right | :28:00. | :28:02. | |
to say that he's innocent? If police wrongdoing | :28:03. | :28:07. | |
is part of this, I want to know. | :28:08. | :28:12. |
