Milton Keynes disguised as Metropolis, its futuristic buildings

:00:11.:00:26.

selected to double as Clark Kent's home city but 30 years on from

:00:27.:00:30.

Superman's flying visit and Milton Keynes has become its own mini

:00:31.:00:35.

metropolis even getting its own edition of monopoly. Over 70% of

:00:36.:00:42.

businesses in Milton Keynes started up in the town and over 60% of them

:00:43.:00:50.

employed no war than five people and by 2013 the latest estimates show

:00:51.:00:52.

that over ?30,000 as the average salary. The rear of Milton Keynes in

:00:53.:00:58.

the early days was good road and rail links by transport he was about

:00:59.:01:03.

to get the first, the government has already thrown its weight behind the

:01:04.:01:06.

new east-west rail link connecting Oxford to Milton Keynes and on to

:01:07.:01:14.

Cambridge. The next step will be airing details about the work and

:01:15.:01:18.

consulted on routes, we will do it in a sensitive away as possible and

:01:19.:01:20.

we will also deliver the connectivity we need in the heart of

:01:21.:01:25.

England here. This family run a haulage firm and had humble

:01:26.:01:30.

beginnings, the company is growing by the day. Today they are taking

:01:31.:01:34.

delivery of the first of 47 new trucks, expanding the footprint of

:01:35.:01:39.

this business across country. We investing ?3 million on the site,

raising the roof, so be from 6000 ballot spaces to 15,000 pallets

:01:46.:01:49.

pieces so watch this space, Milton Keynes is growing. Warehouses here

:01:50.:01:56.

are super size, among them is this business, its Reach global. It is a

:01:57.:02:03.

shop window to our customers, many people come from across the globe to

:02:04.:02:06.

see us so it is important we are in a dynamic working environment. It is

:02:07.:02:12.

a great backdrop to a operation. It is not just manufacturing jobs in

:02:13.:02:17.

Milton Keynes attracts, it has become a successful technology hub

:02:18.:02:19.

attracting digital and creative jobs, too. Jobs that have inspired

:02:20.:02:26.

structural reality work. Here at the visualisation lab at the transport

:02:27.:02:30.

Systems catapult designers are working on ways to help us navigate

:02:31.:02:36.

our towns and cities in the future than one method is by using virtual

:02:37.:02:44.

reality. They made fun of its roundabout -- of the roundabouts but

:02:45.:02:47.

today it is one of the fastest-growing towns in the country

:02:48.:02:50.

with the business pedigree to match but most here regarded a city. Will

:02:51.:02:55.

it ever get the status to match its ideals and exhilarating growth?

:02:56.:02:58.

Pam Gosal is head of Corporate Economic Development

:02:59.:03:01.

and Inward Investment for Milton Keynes Council.

:03:02.:03:03.

I asked her what the secret was of Milton Keynes business success?

:03:04.:03:11.

You have that busy city centre jobs, you have the countryside feel as

:03:12.:03:19.

well and second would-be location, the fact that we have the north and

:03:20.:03:23.

south moving, East and West hopefully, the knowledge with the

:03:24.:03:27.

connectivity and location we have, that there is a good skills pool. It

:03:28.:03:31.

is important for businesses looking to Milton Keynes, the fact that you

:03:32.:03:35.

know our business has a lawyer and accountant there, a printer, we have

:03:36.:03:39.

so many diverse businesses that we have that in one place and last but

:03:40.:03:45.

not least Milton Keynes has much wind, we have a lot of development

:03:46.:03:49.

sites, commercial and residential, which work with our partners include

:03:50.:03:56.

the PB work with partners and make sure that is an investment. With the

:03:57.:03:59.

growing workforce echoes pressure on housing and infrastructure, how are

:04:00.:04:05.

you coping with that? We have the MK futures commission report which is

:04:06.:04:10.

looking at six key priorities, all the challenges we have moving

:04:11.:04:13.

forward whether it is infrastructure or to do with housing or basically

:04:14.:04:24.

IT related to higher education, or mobility with the ground. It is

:04:25.:04:27.

important we are looking at it not just in 50 years but looking 50

:04:28.:04:32.

years ahead. That all costs money at a time when the councils are

:04:33.:04:36.

strapped for cash. You're right, all councils are strapped for cash but

:04:37.:04:41.

this is where it is important that we are in the private sector, Milton

:04:42.:04:46.

Keynes Council has many partnerships not just with public bodies but we

:04:47.:04:49.

have good partnerships with the private sector and it is about

:04:50.:04:52.

enabling the private sector to help deliver our priorities whether it is

:04:53.:04:56.

apprenticeships are looking at tech hubs. Wave back the Prime Minister

:04:57.:05:01.

has been outlining how the economy might work post Brexit, how do you

:05:02.:05:07.

think Milton Keynes will fear? Milton Keynes is an extremely

:05:08.:05:10.

successful place in the fact that after the vote we are still getting

:05:11.:05:15.

a high level of enquiry from international and international

:05:16.:05:19.

businesses are not to forget our businesses are growing a lot one as

:05:20.:05:24.

well so I think to be honest at this moment I could say that it had

:05:25.:05:25.

affected body Keynes. whose body was found in a septic

:05:26.:05:27.

tank at her home in Royston has told a court her daughter had

:05:28.:05:32.

complained of feeling in the weeks before

:05:33.:05:34.

she went missing. also said she felt "uneasy"

:05:35.:05:37.

about her daughter's He denies drugging her with sleeping

:05:38.:05:40.

pills and murdering her. Bailey had suffered from memory

:05:41.:05:58.

lapses and felt dizzy and spaced out in the weeks and months before her

:05:59.:06:01.

disappearance in April. The jury heard from Helen's mother through

:06:02.:06:09.

video link. She said on one occasion Helen was left traumatised after

:06:10.:06:12.

realising she had left her beloved dog on the beach and had returned

:06:13.:06:18.

home without him. We have just one week before she went missing that

:06:19.:06:21.

Helen had called her mother sending anxious, after waking from a file or

:06:22.:06:24.

sleep in the middle of the day. Eileen Bailey broke down in tears

:06:25.:06:30.

were giving evidence, she also said she felt uneasy about Helen's

:06:31.:06:34.

relationship with Ian Stewart due to her state of mind. A police

:06:35.:06:38.

interview with the defendant was played in court and we have in one

:06:39.:06:44.

of the officers involved. This officer said I often found him rude,

:06:45.:06:48.

temperamental, uncooperative and dismissive of us. After the first

:06:49.:06:53.

interview she said he asked and I still suspect? I must be, I must be

:06:54.:06:59.

a suspect. Helen Bailey's body was found in a cesspit under her home

:07:00.:07:03.

three months after she vanished in April last year. The prosecution

:07:04.:07:06.

claimed Ian Stewart sedated his fiancee with sleeping pills before

:07:07.:07:12.

killing her for her money. Ian Stewart denies murder, averting the

:07:13.:07:16.

course of justice of fraud and preventing a lawful burial. The case

:07:17.:07:17.

will continue on Wednesday. Police divers have been searching

:07:18.:07:23.

a lake in Northamptonshire today trying to track down

:07:24.:07:26.

the killer of a pensioner. David Brickwood was murdered

:07:27.:07:28.

in his own home in Northampton So far no one has been

:07:29.:07:30.

charged with his murder, and police are yet to

:07:31.:07:34.

find the murder weapon. Searching the icy water, more than a

:07:35.:07:49.

year after David Brookwood was murdered in his own home. Police

:07:50.:07:54.

today looking for any clue to help track down his killer. We never

:07:55.:07:59.

located the weapon that killed David, and we don't not exactly what

:08:00.:08:03.

was stolen from his address so we are looking for anything that might

:08:04.:08:09.

have been the weapon that has harmed her that anything that could have

:08:10.:08:12.

come from his address. David was described as an honest and caring

:08:13.:08:15.

man and was asleep in his own bed when he was stabbed five times in

:08:16.:08:19.

what police described as a dreadful and violent attack. Despite appeals

:08:20.:08:24.

including one on the BBC's Crimewatch programme, questions

:08:25.:08:29.

remain about exactly what happened. Police say they will continue to do

:08:30.:08:33.

all they can to try and bring his killers to justice.

:08:34.:08:34.

That's how the region is looking tonight.

:08:35.:08:37.

Coming up next the weather with Julie, but from me

:08:38.:08:40.

We'll be back with the Breakfast bulletins from 06.25

:08:41.:08:43.

We might have a little bit of light rain and drizzle to light but be

:08:44.:08:56.

largely dry and under clear skies turning chilly. Temperatures down to

:08:57.:09:01.

-1 or two but we might see some even more, perhaps -5 and we have a

:09:02.:09:05.

yellow warning in place for fog. Some of that will be freezing fog

:09:06.:09:10.

and leads to tricky driving conditions not just an iPod tomorrow

:09:11.:09:14.

morning as well. Some of this fog could linger through the day of or

:09:15.:09:16.

not everywhere, some other should hopefully brighten up with some

:09:17.:09:21.

sunshine coming through. Where that happens highs of around 6 degrees,

:09:22.:09:25.

whether fog lingers temperatures struggling to get above freezing. In

:09:26.:09:29.

finish the day drive but under the clear skies of frost then fog

:09:30.:09:33.

resuming in forming. On Wednesday at cell high-pressure migrating

:09:34.:09:36.

eastwards, the wind picking up little so on Wednesday the frost in

:09:37.:09:42.

the fog should clear more readily if all goes to plan. Then on Thursday

:09:43.:09:47.

we start to drag in much cold air from the continent. After a frosty

:09:48.:09:52.

start plenty of sunshine really feeling very chilly, especially in

:09:53.:09:58.

the wind. Hopefully not quite as cold on Friday, largely dry with

:09:59.:10:02.

brightness and sunshine. We have the

:10:03.:10:03.

For the weekend we will have dry weather with sunny spells and it

:10:04.:10:05.

will be a little bit milder. Good evening. We are continuing to

:10:06.:10:15.

see huge righty in the weather. Getting the detail right is proving

:10:16.:10:23.

to be a challenge. This was in Pembrokeshire and other parts of the

:10:24.:10:28.

UK were gloomy throughout the day. The fog is thickening up right now.

:10:29.:10:34.

Particularly pool on the M5 in south-west England. Very foggy

:10:35.:10:42.

across parts of the West Country. This fog is tending to spread its

:10:43.:10:47.

way further eastwards. Some fog as well across parts of Yorkshire.

:10:48.:10:51.

Northern Ireland and Scotland are mild but damn. This is how we will

:10:52.:10:57.

start the day. At eight o'clock in the morning, quite a lot of fog

:10:58.:11:00.

around which could affect the major airports. What all of us have seen

:11:01.:11:06.

fog. There will be Sunni areas to western fringes of England and

:11:07.:11:12.

Wales. Across Northern Ireland and Scotland it is much milder. Some

:11:13.:11:17.

patchy rain around coming in on the Bruce, particularly over the hills

:11:18.:11:21.

in the West. Much of that will fade away. It will be relatively mild.

:11:22.:11:27.

For England and Wales, much of the fog were clear. Some of it will not

:11:28.:11:32.

sell it will be especially chilly. Quite a contrast in temperatures

:11:33.:11:38.

again. -- so it will be especially chilly. Despite sunshine, it will be

:11:39.:11:43.

on the chilly side. The fog will come back again. On Wednesday

:11:44.:11:48.

morning, Central and eastern parts are particularly prone. Some

:11:49.:11:52.

sunshine will emerge. Rather more cloud for Northern Ireland and

:11:53.:11:56.

Scotland. Most of the rain will be held at bay. Still relatively mild.

:11:57.:12:02.

A real edge to that further south and east. It would be a sign of

:12:03.:12:07.

things to come. On Thursday we will tap into some particularly cold air

:12:08.:12:10.

sitting over the continent for several days now. Europe is frozen

:12:11.:12:17.

at the moment. Some of the freezing cold air will head towards us on a

:12:18.:12:22.

stiffening south-easterly breeze. Some places will not get above

:12:23.:12:28.

freezing, maybe the odd snow flurry. Wherever you are, it will feel cold.
