Fairer funding for schools but many in our region | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
There is just not enough money in the pot for the basic | :00:00. | :00:11. | |
The government has not looked at what it actually costs to | :00:12. | :00:15. | |
Corby's urgent care centre which treats over | :00:16. | :00:26. | |
Battle on ice as MK Lightning fight to | :00:27. | :00:30. | |
And rain lingering this evening and overnight. | :00:31. | :00:33. | |
It's designed to make education funding fairer - | :00:34. | :00:48. | |
but the government's new system for allocating money | :00:49. | :00:51. | |
to schools has been criticised by headteachers in our region. | :00:52. | :00:55. | |
It's a complex formula - but it'll mean just over nine | :00:56. | :01:03. | |
-- 900 schools in our patch get more money, and just over five | :01:04. | :01:12. | |
Broadly speaking schools in Bedford would be the biggest winners - | :01:13. | :01:15. | |
but those in Luton will lose the most. | :01:16. | :01:17. | |
And, as Anna Todd reports, even the schools getting a bigger | :01:18. | :01:20. | |
slice of the budget say they'll be worse off. | :01:21. | :01:22. | |
Underline the part that you think needs improvement. | :01:23. | :01:24. | |
An English lesson, how to improve your work. | :01:25. | :01:28. | |
Something headteachers in Cambridgeshire and | :01:29. | :01:29. | |
13 other counties are asking the government to do. | :01:30. | :01:31. | |
They say the new national funding formula may give | :01:32. | :01:33. | |
historically underfunded schools some extra money but doesn't take | :01:34. | :01:35. | |
into account the non-negotiable and rising costs that all schools face. | :01:36. | :01:42. | |
Swavesey Village College has 1270 pupils on its books | :01:43. | :01:48. | |
and it has an annual budget of ?6 million. | :01:49. | :01:53. | |
Now, under the new funding formula, it's going to get | :01:54. | :01:56. | |
But with the non-negotiables, like inflation, | :01:57. | :02:02. | |
salary increases, national insurance, pensions | :02:03. | :02:06. | |
and the apprenticeship levy, they're going to lose | :02:07. | :02:09. | |
And that ?10,000 becomes small change. | :02:10. | :02:20. | |
The Government has not looked at what it actually costs to run | :02:21. | :02:23. | |
a school on, you know, at the basic level. | :02:24. | :02:26. | |
And if you're not in an area of deprivation or have high levels | :02:27. | :02:29. | |
of deprivation which will enhance the budget to absolutely rightly | :02:30. | :02:34. | |
allow you to meet those additional pressures, then the amount | :02:35. | :02:36. | |
that is being proposed is not enough to run a school. | :02:37. | :02:41. | |
In their joint letter to the government, headteachers | :02:42. | :02:43. | |
Criticising the government for spending in areas like | :02:44. | :02:50. | |
grammar school expansion and for assuming schools all | :02:51. | :02:53. | |
Most schools that I know are working to the bone | :02:54. | :02:59. | |
in terms of financial efficiency, many schools have made redundancies, | :03:00. | :03:01. | |
they're looking at their courses they're running, | :03:02. | :03:04. | |
they're looking at the opportunities they can | :03:05. | :03:06. | |
offer their children because at the end of the day, | :03:07. | :03:09. | |
they have to manage and balance their budgets. | :03:10. | :03:11. | |
In our region, many areas, including Bedford Borough and | :03:12. | :03:13. | |
Milton Keynes, would see a significant rise in their funding. | :03:14. | :03:16. | |
But Luton, which is historically well funded, would see all | :03:17. | :03:18. | |
The Prime Minister this afternoon was | :03:19. | :03:24. | |
trying to justify it to say that this will really be the most | :03:25. | :03:29. | |
But this isn't because you're hitting the | :03:30. | :03:33. | |
poorest families and the poorest areas of the towns and that's | :03:34. | :03:38. | |
what I think is the total unfairness of whole, | :03:39. | :03:40. | |
The extra ?10,000 for Swavesey Village College could pay | :03:41. | :03:48. | |
But with so many other costs in the next few years, | :03:49. | :03:54. | |
12 teachers could actually be made redundant. | :03:55. | :03:57. | |
Headteachers say to make this formula work, the education pot | :03:58. | :04:00. | |
Anna Todd, BBC Look East, Cambridgeshire. | :04:01. | :04:08. | |
We were hoping to put some of those points to one of our MPs, | :04:09. | :04:11. | |
but obviously Westminster remains in lockdown tonight due | :04:12. | :04:14. | |
We do have a statement from the Department for Education. | :04:15. | :04:18. | |
They say, "School funding is at its highest level on record. | :04:19. | :04:22. | |
We are consulting schools, governors, local authorities | :04:23. | :04:26. | |
and parents to make sure we get this formula right, so that every pound | :04:27. | :04:30. | |
of the investment we make in education has the | :04:31. | :04:32. | |
And from money for schools to money for health care, | :04:33. | :04:37. | |
it's been announced that Corby's Urgent Care Centre | :04:38. | :04:40. | |
is to close next week because, managers say, | :04:41. | :04:41. | |
But the group that pays for the services says | :04:42. | :04:47. | |
to run the service which treats over 76,000 patients a year, | :04:48. | :04:54. | |
It was championed as a beacon of care in an NHS that's struggling to | :04:55. | :05:01. | |
keep up with patient demand at nearby Kettering Hospital. | :05:02. | :05:06. | |
But is that beacon about to be extinguished? | :05:07. | :05:11. | |
Corby's Urgent Care Centre keeps patients out of A | :05:12. | :05:13. | |
by treating urgent but not critical conditions like fractures. | :05:14. | :05:17. | |
The number of patients we should be seeing and we're kind of geared | :05:18. | :05:24. | |
to see is about 140, 147 patients per day | :05:25. | :05:26. | |
but it has been increasing and that increase has been a steady rise | :05:27. | :05:29. | |
over a long period of time, with sort of peaks | :05:30. | :05:32. | |
It is not unusual for us to be seeing in excess | :05:33. | :05:36. | |
But now a row over funding threatens the service. | :05:37. | :05:41. | |
Doctors say they're running the centre at a loss, | :05:42. | :05:44. | |
receiving around ?44 per patient when the NHS | :05:45. | :05:46. | |
Lakeside, the company that staffs the centre, is adamant its doors | :05:47. | :05:54. | |
Not so, say local health care bosses. | :05:55. | :05:58. | |
All we're asking for is the legally accepted minimum tariff | :05:59. | :06:19. | |
We're not asking for anything else, we're asking for the minimum. | :06:20. | :06:24. | |
It's a bit like asking for the minimum wage. | :06:25. | :06:26. | |
I think people who use the service would say it's definitely | :06:27. | :06:31. | |
Today, patients gave their reaction to the news. | :06:32. | :06:42. | |
This is the best place they ever opened, | :06:43. | :06:44. | |
I suffer with a long-term illness anyway so it's handy for me | :06:45. | :06:48. | |
if I am ill to come down here rather than go to Kettering. | :06:49. | :06:51. | |
It does serve a good purpose to a lot of people in general, | :06:52. | :06:55. | |
With just days to resolve this situation, there is | :06:56. | :06:58. | |
confusion, not only for staff but the estimated 73,000 people | :06:59. | :07:00. | |
The mother of a baby who died at the Luton and Dunstable Hospital | :07:01. | :07:10. | |
has told an inquest into his death that had he been given competent | :07:11. | :07:13. | |
and timely care he would have survived. | :07:14. | :07:17. | |
Nathalie Aubry-Stacey heard ten month old Leo died | :07:18. | :07:18. | |
after suffering from a bowel condition which needed surgery. | :07:19. | :07:23. | |
He was due to be transferred to Great Ormond Street hospital | :07:24. | :07:26. | |
One of the doctors who treated him told the court his death | :07:27. | :07:31. | |
was unexpected, and they did all they could to save his life. | :07:32. | :07:34. | |
A hospital has apologised after it missed opportunities to correctly | :07:35. | :07:41. | |
diagnose a Wellingborough father who's now dying of bone cancer. | :07:42. | :07:45. | |
A scan carried out on 34-year-old David Kinnie two years ago, | :07:46. | :07:55. | |
But his tumour was mistaken for a blood clot. | :07:56. | :08:01. | |
Experts are now warning of the dangers of late diagnoses. | :08:02. | :08:03. | |
Throughout his life, Daddy has been ill. | :08:04. | :08:07. | |
It was only in October last year when it | :08:08. | :08:11. | |
was too late that doctors found the tumour. | :08:12. | :08:12. | |
I want to be here to watch my little boy grow up. | :08:13. | :08:15. | |
I don't want him to look at pictures and not know | :08:16. | :08:19. | |
For seven years, David has been under the care of the | :08:20. | :08:32. | |
He was given physiotherapy for a irregular | :08:33. | :08:37. | |
hip for a year and had two operations cancelled. | :08:38. | :08:39. | |
Having been together all that time, he and Vikki are planning a wedding. | :08:40. | :08:43. | |
I want the hospital to recognise that they | :08:44. | :08:45. | |
It's happening too much, they are missing, they're | :08:46. | :09:05. | |
For people with cancer and it's not fair. | :09:06. | :09:08. | |
Documents seen by the BBC indicate an MRI | :09:09. | :09:10. | |
in January 2015 found the | :09:11. | :09:11. | |
tumour but it was thought to be a blood clot. | :09:12. | :09:14. | |
Bone cancers are typically slower growing and | :09:15. | :09:22. | |
metastasise later on so obviously if we are looking at | :09:23. | :09:24. | |
possibly, you know, certainly we would hope that David's life | :09:25. | :09:27. | |
The hospital has apologised unreservedly for the | :09:28. | :09:30. | |
The trust medical director Professor Meghana Pandit said a full | :09:31. | :09:33. | |
investigation had looked into the opportunities to find the cancer | :09:34. | :09:36. | |
She wanted to talk to the family about this and the actions | :09:37. | :09:40. | |
taken to improve care for all patients. | :09:41. | :09:42. | |
Bone cancer is rare, only 600 cases a year, | :09:43. | :09:45. | |
but experts say too often it's diagnosed too late. | :09:46. | :09:51. | |
A survey showed nearly one in four visited their GP | :09:52. | :09:53. | |
One in three saw more than four health care | :09:54. | :10:07. | |
Late diagnosis is quite common for bone cancer patients. | :10:08. | :10:12. | |
We hear it from our patients and affected family members | :10:13. | :10:15. | |
quite frequently, unfortunately they could be misdiagnosed | :10:16. | :10:17. | |
This leads to them being treated incorrectly or prolongs the time | :10:18. | :10:20. | |
they have to wait for the correct treatment | :10:21. | :10:22. | |
David is determined to fight for as long as he can to stay | :10:23. | :10:26. | |
A charity from the region, which works to turn around the lives | :10:27. | :10:31. | |
of severely bullied children, has won a top national award. | :10:32. | :10:39. | |
Red Balloon, which has a centre in Cambridge, | :10:40. | :10:41. | |
was praised for its work helping bullied children recover | :10:42. | :10:44. | |
Started around a kitchen table 20 years ago, to date, the Red Balloon | :10:45. | :10:49. | |
charity has helped over 400 children bullied | :10:50. | :10:54. | |
so badly they are forced to leave school. | :10:55. | :10:56. | |
This is one of two centres in our region where 11 to | :10:57. | :10:59. | |
15-year-olds receive specialist teaching and therapy | :11:00. | :11:00. | |
to rebuild their self-confidence and get back into | :11:01. | :11:02. | |
Now those lending a helping hand have been | :11:03. | :11:05. | |
Founded by former Work and Pensions Secretary | :11:06. | :11:14. | |
the Centre for Social Justice have awarded Red Balloon its | :11:15. | :11:17. | |
Education, Employment And Skills Award. | :11:18. | :11:20. | |
It really gives us the credibility to continue. | :11:21. | :11:23. | |
We know what we're doing, we know we do well | :11:24. | :11:26. | |
and suddenly somebody has said well done. | :11:27. | :11:30. | |
And the impact of the centres is clear. | :11:31. | :11:33. | |
Prior to joining Red Balloon, over 80% of parents | :11:34. | :11:39. | |
described their child's mental health as very poor. | :11:40. | :11:42. | |
After enrolment in its recovery programme, that figure fell to 6%. | :11:43. | :11:44. | |
The idea is to get children ready to return to mainstream | :11:45. | :11:47. | |
education or take up apprenticeships. | :11:48. | :11:48. | |
It's about 50% academic work, maths, science, | :11:49. | :11:51. | |
English, that sort of thing and 50% well-being and therapy set in the | :11:52. | :11:58. | |
community, our children need to belong. | :11:59. | :12:02. | |
Locally the charity has seen high demand for its centres | :12:03. | :12:04. | |
because of the number of young people absent | :12:05. | :12:06. | |
Now, along with their award, Red Balloon | :12:07. | :12:09. | |
It's hoped this will allow them to help even more children | :12:10. | :12:15. | |
Luton-based Easyjet has become the first airline in the UK | :12:16. | :12:24. | |
to confirm how a cabin baggage ban on laptops and tablets | :12:25. | :12:27. | |
Passengers coming from Turkey and Egypt will have to put large | :12:28. | :12:33. | |
They'll also be subject to extra security checks | :12:34. | :12:38. | |
and are being advised to arrive early at the airport. | :12:39. | :12:44. | |
That is it from me. Let's join Stewart and Susie. | :12:45. | :12:59. | |
You are watching Look East with Susie and me. | :13:00. | :13:01. | |
We are an slightly later tonight because of the terrorism | :13:02. | :13:04. | |
Stay with us for Alex's regional weather | :13:05. | :13:06. | |
forecast, and Camilla comes face-to-face with King Charles. | :13:07. | :13:20. | |
There are fears the number of rough sleepers in Southend could increase. | :13:21. | :13:22. | |
It's because 20 emergency beds made available through the winter | :13:23. | :13:25. | |
20 emergency beds for the homeless in Southend, which are available | :13:26. | :13:29. | |
during the winter, will be withdrawn next week. | :13:30. | :13:36. | |
That is raising concerns that the situation could get worse. | :13:37. | :13:38. | |
The highs the resort, the day-trippers know | :13:39. | :13:42. | |
Homeless charities say they have seen an increase in demand | :13:43. | :13:48. | |
in the last few years, and at the last count, | :13:49. | :13:50. | |
back in November, there were just under 50 rough sleepers. | :13:51. | :13:53. | |
Freezing temperatures can put lives at risk | :13:54. | :14:03. | |
in Southend, in the winter, 20 extra | :14:04. | :14:07. | |
emergency beds are set up each night in local churches. | :14:08. | :14:10. | |
But from next week, those beds won't be available. | :14:11. | :14:12. | |
Are some of them worried about the fact that those beds are going? | :14:13. | :14:15. | |
It has been the last two weeks, some of them have been a bit jumpy | :14:16. | :14:20. | |
We have been trying to reassure them that they would get | :14:21. | :14:24. | |
Southend Council say the extra beds have been used by more than 140 | :14:25. | :14:29. | |
How many of those do you think are going to end | :14:30. | :14:34. | |
I'd say about 25 of them will go back on the street. | :14:35. | :14:40. | |
And, as I say, the people in the winter night shelters deal | :14:41. | :14:43. | |
that they have failed when that happens because they are | :14:44. | :14:45. | |
trying to get them to be integrated into society. | :14:46. | :14:47. | |
But there are a group of them that really don't want to be part | :14:48. | :14:51. | |
It is their life choice, if you like. | :14:52. | :14:55. | |
Last summer, squatters occupied a former department | :14:56. | :14:57. | |
Some predict there will be more squats if homelessness rises. | :14:58. | :15:00. | |
The town's homeless charity is called Harp. | :15:01. | :15:02. | |
And it showed me a new centre it is building for women. | :15:03. | :15:05. | |
The centre has 20 beds, boosting the number Harp can provide to 170. | :15:06. | :15:08. | |
This is a new facility that will be opened in April this year. | :15:09. | :15:11. | |
It will be an extension to an existing 18 bedroom night shelter. | :15:12. | :15:16. | |
Without these guys, that would never have happened. | :15:17. | :15:23. | |
I can't thank them enough, to be perfectly honest. | :15:24. | :15:25. | |
Harp, the council and church volunteers say if the number | :15:26. | :15:34. | |
of rough sleepers here does rise, and they all accept there | :15:35. | :15:37. | |
is the danger it could, they say they will be doing | :15:38. | :15:39. | |
everything they can to get them back of the streets. | :15:40. | :15:42. | |
It's a big night in the ice hockey season, with two | :15:43. | :15:45. | |
Peterborough Phantoms are at home to Sheffield Steeldogs, | :15:46. | :15:52. | |
and Milton Keynes Lightning are at home to Swindon Wildcats. | :15:53. | :15:56. | |
Let's go to Milton Keynes now, and our sports | :15:57. | :15:58. | |
We are on the ice. It is very noisy. The players are going through their | :15:59. | :16:12. | |
warm up preparations for the game tonight. It is the start of their | :16:13. | :16:17. | |
play-off campaign. Things are on the up for the Milton Keynes Lightning. | :16:18. | :16:21. | |
They won the League Cup final for the first time in their history at | :16:22. | :16:24. | |
the weekend. When this place gets going, they really raised the roof, | :16:25. | :16:29. | |
there were 3000 fans here at the weekend and there is a another | :16:30. | :16:31. | |
late-night tonight. -- weeknight. It is a good time to be a fan | :16:32. | :16:37. | |
of Milton Keynes Lightning. With their hands on the cup, | :16:38. | :16:40. | |
it is onto the play-offs. And another chance to win some | :16:41. | :16:43. | |
precious silverware. It's very, very difficult | :16:44. | :16:45. | |
to win anything. In this league now, | :16:46. | :16:47. | |
because it is so competitive. They are giving 110% | :16:48. | :16:49. | |
on the ice and off the ice. The Lightning have been | :16:50. | :16:53. | |
on the ice for 15 years now. But never before have | :16:54. | :16:57. | |
they won the League Cup. That all changed on Sunday | :16:58. | :17:00. | |
when they beat local rivals It is the trophy we have | :17:01. | :17:02. | |
never won before. I just wanted to keep the nerves | :17:03. | :17:15. | |
in the penalty shoot out. It was a nice feeling to score such | :17:16. | :17:18. | |
an important goal for the club. Last night, supporters | :17:19. | :17:24. | |
of the Lightning not only A lot of people who see other sports | :17:25. | :17:37. | |
don't really do this type of thing. It's important for the fans to get | :17:38. | :17:40. | |
close to the players. It makes you feel more | :17:41. | :17:43. | |
part of the community. Inside Lightning's dressing room, | :17:44. | :17:45. | |
mostly British players. And when they are on the ice, | :17:46. | :17:47. | |
they can hit speeds of 30 mph. Ahead of them, Swindon, Basingstoke | :17:48. | :17:55. | |
and Hull in the playoffs. With finals weekend in Coventry, | :17:56. | :17:58. | |
the target next month. We have been following | :17:59. | :18:00. | |
for five seasons. You know, towards the top | :18:01. | :18:02. | |
of the table and winning We've got a lovely rink, | :18:03. | :18:05. | |
a great team, so, yeah, The Lightning have | :18:06. | :18:10. | |
already struck once. Now, they are charging | :18:11. | :18:13. | |
for their next piece of silverware. The speed of these players is | :18:14. | :18:24. | |
something. Let's have a chat to the head coach, Pete Russell. You have | :18:25. | :18:29. | |
had a great season, haven't you? You need to finish it off in the | :18:30. | :18:33. | |
play-offs. How easy will it be to win? It is tough. Six games in 12 | :18:34. | :18:41. | |
nights. Wednesday, Saturday, Sunday and repeat. We are playing pretty | :18:42. | :18:46. | |
good, so hopefully we can keep going. Peterborough are also in the | :18:47. | :18:49. | |
players. You might meet them in the finals? If both teams get there, | :18:50. | :18:54. | |
there is a good chance of that. We played them, beat them in the final. | :18:55. | :18:59. | |
I don't think they wed like to play us again. Good luck to the Sheffield | :19:00. | :19:06. | |
Steeldogs also. The Duchess of Cornwall got | :19:07. | :19:08. | |
a taste of the future today She came face-to-face | :19:09. | :19:11. | |
with King Charles. But this was a statue, | :19:12. | :19:14. | |
and of a King Charles who lived a long time ago - | :19:15. | :19:17. | |
Charles II. The monarch was known as Old Rowley | :19:18. | :19:20. | |
and was largely responsible for establishing racing | :19:21. | :19:23. | |
on the town's heath. The statue is a replica of one which | :19:24. | :19:26. | |
is at the Old Bailey in London. With a gentle stroke, | :19:27. | :19:31. | |
the Duchess meets a chameleon at Newmarket Academy's | :19:32. | :19:34. | |
annual welfare centre. Reading is important | :19:35. | :19:41. | |
because you wouldn't be able to achieve everyday activities such | :19:42. | :19:43. | |
as driving a car or going to work. Earlier, she had pupils taking part | :19:44. | :19:46. | |
in a literacy activity. Meeting the Duchess was really cool | :19:47. | :19:50. | |
because I've never met In the Forge, she learnt | :19:51. | :19:53. | |
about the school's close links There was no stage fright on show | :19:54. | :19:59. | |
as the Duchess was treated to a stage rehearsal | :20:00. | :20:18. | |
of the forthcoming production She was friendly, she was keen | :20:19. | :20:21. | |
to talk to the students, And to me, actually, | :20:22. | :20:29. | |
because I was a bit nervous as well. Then, in torrential rain, | :20:30. | :20:33. | |
it was onto the Rowley Mile. Where the Duchess unveiled | :20:34. | :20:41. | |
a statue of King Charles II. Commissioned to mark the home | :20:42. | :20:43. | |
of horse racing's 350th anniversary. Racing as we know it | :20:44. | :20:46. | |
wouldn't have started, he was the man who got the rules, | :20:47. | :20:49. | |
and of course the amazing thing is that the town plate | :20:50. | :20:52. | |
where we were celebrating 350 years of last year, he actually won | :20:53. | :20:55. | |
one of the first few It is amazing to think of a monarch | :20:56. | :20:57. | |
actually riding his own horse In the warm, out of the rain, | :20:58. | :21:01. | |
there was time to meet the great She asked if I had some nice | :21:02. | :21:06. | |
horses for the Queen. And as a parting gift, | :21:07. | :21:11. | |
we gave her a copy of the 350th commemorative edition | :21:12. | :21:25. | |
of Newmarket Monopoly. So she says she would very much | :21:26. | :21:27. | |
enjoyed playing that. It was an exciting day | :21:28. | :21:35. | |
for Newmarket, a town owes much but have become an increasingly | :21:36. | :21:38. | |
common sight in this country. They are popular for their meat | :21:39. | :21:50. | |
in countries like Peru. Here they are kept as pets, | :21:51. | :21:53. | |
or for their beautiful, soft wool. Did you know there | :21:54. | :21:58. | |
is a national show? where Alpacas from all over | :21:59. | :22:00. | |
the country compete for things And a small farm in | :22:01. | :22:08. | |
Cambridgeshire has high hopes Louise Hubball is at | :22:09. | :22:14. | |
the farm in Cambridgeshire. I am with these two handsome chaps, | :22:15. | :22:27. | |
very well behaved. They have both entered into the national show. The | :22:28. | :22:33. | |
white one here, Thorn set, has actually won some of the rosettes | :22:34. | :22:38. | |
behind me. High hopes for him. The family who breed the alpacas started | :22:39. | :22:43. | |
reading them because they want to keep the grass down but did not want | :22:44. | :22:45. | |
to have to mow it. With a heart-shaped noses, | :22:46. | :22:47. | |
tiny hooves, and bursting with personality, it is not hard | :22:48. | :22:49. | |
to see the appeal of alpacas. There is the Imperial Thornset, | :22:50. | :22:56. | |
and cheeky ten-month-old Gabriel. Both are in competition this | :22:57. | :22:59. | |
weekend, a gentle walk So this helps with, | :23:00. | :23:05. | |
when we go to the nationals, so that when they go in the ring, | :23:06. | :23:12. | |
hopefully, they will And they will walk | :23:13. | :23:15. | |
nicely for the judges. Nicky left a job in IT and started | :23:16. | :23:17. | |
breeding alpacas three years ago. She now has 11, and this | :23:18. | :23:21. | |
weekend's competition, the British Alpaca Society's | :23:22. | :23:30. | |
national show, we'll of the animals go to Shropshire | :23:31. | :23:32. | |
to vie for top spot. It is just the enjoyment | :23:33. | :23:36. | |
of going and showing them, and knowing that you have done | :23:37. | :23:38. | |
really well, and that the animals that you are reading are actually | :23:39. | :23:41. | |
coming up to what judges expect The main reason that we breed them | :23:42. | :23:44. | |
is because I am really quite I would like to say no, | :23:45. | :23:48. | |
but I'd think it probably He was crowned supreme champion | :23:49. | :23:53. | |
at another show back in October. More and more people | :23:54. | :24:03. | |
are choosing to keep alpacas. And the herd here is due | :24:04. | :24:08. | |
to expansion with two mothers to be grazing peacefully | :24:09. | :24:10. | |
in the spring sunshine. They are beautifully soft. Really | :24:11. | :24:21. | |
lovely animals. When the judges are doing their bit, they will be | :24:22. | :24:26. | |
looking at how the alpacas stands. How it walks. And this lovely soft | :24:27. | :24:31. | |
fleece, the condition of that, and also their teeth. And they will be | :24:32. | :24:35. | |
shown in paddock condition because it -- and this is meaning they will | :24:36. | :24:45. | |
be shown how they are and their hooves will not need to be baffled. | :24:46. | :24:47. | |
Here's the weather. Some bright weather this morning. | :24:48. | :24:58. | |
Some beautiful sunrise photographs. This one in Norfolk. Then it did go | :24:59. | :25:03. | |
downhill with clouds and habits of rain. Over all parts of the region. | :25:04. | :25:07. | |
This is Cambridge and this afternoon. The weather system | :25:08. | :25:12. | |
responsible visited across this part of the country. Bringing the cloud | :25:13. | :25:20. | |
and rain which at the moment is still lingering across Norfolk, | :25:21. | :25:23. | |
Suffolk and Essex. Mainly affecting the East, but pushing westward | :25:24. | :25:28. | |
through the evening and overnight. Much of the rain should have cleared | :25:29. | :25:32. | |
by the end of the night, looking necklace posted anything and was the | :25:33. | :25:35. | |
Magi picture across the region. Temperatures could get lower. | :25:36. | :25:42. | |
Underneath the clear skies. One or two spots going down lower. Most | :25:43. | :25:48. | |
places just above freezing. The weather system gets pushed out the | :25:49. | :25:52. | |
way by high pressure from the north. That will shape our weather for the | :25:53. | :25:55. | |
next few days. Despite the cloudy start of the day, we should should | :25:56. | :25:59. | |
see some brightness through the day and sunshine. Eight kina | :26:00. | :26:03. | |
north-easterly wind will make it feel chilly at times in that wind. | :26:04. | :26:09. | |
Particularly on the coast itself. Temperatures, highs of 11 Celsius | :26:10. | :26:14. | |
tomorrow. The wind feeling noticeable, but easing down as the | :26:15. | :26:17. | |
day goes on. A fine afternoon with some good spells and sunshine. As we | :26:18. | :26:21. | |
look ahead to the weekend, high pressure is going to dominate. It | :26:22. | :26:28. | |
will stay with us into next week, so we can expect fine, settled, | :26:29. | :26:31. | |
springlike weather for the weekend and beyond. Having said that, even | :26:32. | :26:36. | |
though the temperatures will be around 12 degrees by day with good | :26:37. | :26:40. | |
spells of sunshine, under clear skies it will mean chilly nights. In | :26:41. | :26:48. | |
the country so, it could get a bit cooler than that. A brisk breeze | :26:49. | :26:51. | |
tomorrow. But those winds easing as we go through the rest of the week | :26:52. | :26:53. | |
and into the weekend. The Prime Minister is hosting | :26:54. | :26:57. | |
a meeting of the Cobra Committee - the crisis response committee - | :26:58. | :27:01. | |
following a terrorist Four people - including a police | :27:02. | :27:03. | |
officer - have been killed. At least 20 more have been badly | :27:04. | :27:07. | |
injured after a car crashed into pedestrians on | :27:08. | :27:10. | |
Westminster Bridge. And the Assistant Chief Constable of | :27:11. | :27:24. | |
Essex, anti-profit, has sent his condolences. And there will be | :27:25. | :27:29. | |
increased police presence in Essex including armed officers until | :27:30. | :27:30. | |
further notice. | :27:31. | :27:33. |
