:00:07. > :00:14.Fire crews at full stretch after the hottest weekend
:00:15. > :00:17.of the year so far brings a spate of fires.
:00:18. > :00:21.And devastating, we have nothing left. Everything is water damage and
:00:22. > :00:24.smoke damaged. Drivers are urged to be patient
:00:25. > :00:28.as the new ring road for Norwich using flickering
:00:29. > :00:41.memories from the past I am in Cardington where this
:00:42. > :00:50.airship is preparing to take to the skies once again.
:00:51. > :00:56.Residents and businesses have today been counting the cost
:00:57. > :00:58.of a weekend of fires across the region.
:00:59. > :00:59.Some were accidental, some were suspicious.
:01:00. > :01:02.In Newmarket 23 people, Including seven children,
:01:03. > :01:12.were left homeless after a fire last night in a block of flats.
:01:13. > :01:14.And at the roundabout at Barton Mills in Suffolk,
:01:15. > :01:17.praise for staff at a service station for preventing a major
:01:18. > :01:21.This is from our chief reporter Kim Riley.
:01:22. > :01:28.The view from a car on this roundabout as a blaze took hold of
:01:29. > :01:32.the petrol station on Saturday morning. Last October the owner
:01:33. > :01:38.reopened after a major refurbishment and this afternoon the damage was
:01:39. > :01:41.being assessed. By the time the Fire Service arrived the fire was well
:01:42. > :01:46.established and broke through into the roof and spoke was a billowing
:01:47. > :01:52.across the A11 and the road was closed for a couple of hours. Five
:01:53. > :02:05.fire crews brought the blaze under control, believed to have been
:02:06. > :02:08.caused by a -- an electrical fault. On Saturday night six fire crews
:02:09. > :02:11.tackled a barn fire, the barn was destroyed but they stop the flames
:02:12. > :02:13.spreading to a nearby cottage and no one was hurt. In Newmarket families
:02:14. > :02:17.were returning to an evacuated block of flats this morning but only to
:02:18. > :02:24.pick up possessions. Exterior damage appeared minimal but smoke spread
:02:25. > :02:31.between the walls. The residents did the right thing and got out of the
:02:32. > :02:35.building. Ireland 23 people were evacuated and six flats involved --
:02:36. > :02:39.around 23 people. Many evacuees spent the night in a local hotel and
:02:40. > :02:46.were shocked by what they found when return. Devastating, nothing left,
:02:47. > :02:52.everything is water damaged and smoke damaged. You were pretty
:02:53. > :02:58.shaken? Yeah. That is my home and we have nothing left. We saw a fire on
:02:59. > :03:03.the floor so ran downstairs and there -- got water and put it out
:03:04. > :03:07.but by that point it was in the ventilation system and we saw smoke
:03:08. > :03:13.coming out from other people's flats and their windows so that is when we
:03:14. > :03:17.realised the fire was not out and we phoned the emergency services. With
:03:18. > :03:21.some flats likely to be out of bounds for weeks the official
:03:22. > :03:25.investigation continues. It is a highly unusual set of circumstances,
:03:26. > :03:38.with no firm conclusions but the clause does not appear to be arson.
:03:39. > :03:40.Meanwhile, people living on Mersea Island in Essex called
:03:41. > :03:43.for a bigger police presence today after a row of beach huts
:03:44. > :03:56.2am Sunday morning and residents raised the alarm after spotting fire
:03:57. > :04:05.on the beach. Later on the scale of the damage was seen. Ten hearts were
:04:06. > :04:10.burned to the ground totally. Owners returning were devastated. -- ten
:04:11. > :04:16.huts. I was not quite prepared for how bad it looks. A lot of people
:04:17. > :04:21.will lose a lot of memories and emotional things this. 15
:04:22. > :04:25.firefighters worked to stop it from spreading. Inside they found gas
:04:26. > :04:31.cylinders that were extremely flammable. Propane cylinders were
:04:32. > :04:36.removed from the fire and cooling jets were applied to reduce the
:04:37. > :04:40.temperature and reduce the risk. There are over 500 beach huts here
:04:41. > :04:45.on Mersea Island and residents tell me of vandalism and break-ins are
:04:46. > :04:51.not unusual but never to this scale. Local councillors are pushing for a
:04:52. > :04:57.deterrent. We need something. Either resident policeman on the island,
:04:58. > :05:04.like in the old days or we need CCTV patrol or something because this is
:05:05. > :05:10.not acceptable and we should not be seen to not be doing something.
:05:11. > :05:13.Residents groups feel a -- fear this will affect summer tourism. It is
:05:14. > :05:20.such a nice holiday season at this time of the year and we have sought
:05:21. > :05:24.many people on what is our most important beach and they are faced
:05:25. > :05:28.with complete devastation. The area has been cordoned off to allow
:05:29. > :05:31.investigators to work out how the fire was started.
:05:32. > :05:36.We've heard the Fire Service in Suffolk was
:05:37. > :05:39.Late this afternoon I spoke to Area Commander Ian Bowell,
:05:40. > :05:42.and asked if people could expect to get back into the flats
:05:43. > :05:50.No, I think the 18 properties that were evacuated have been
:05:51. > :05:52.substantially damaged and the structure supporting
:05:53. > :05:53.the building needs to be properly assessed.
:05:54. > :05:55.The fire spread rapidly between the brick cladding
:05:56. > :05:58.and the timber structure and it was difficult for us to get
:05:59. > :06:01.to them and we had to do a significant amount of damage
:06:02. > :06:03.to some of the properties to actually get into the fire,
:06:04. > :06:08.The fire at the filling station on the A11, was there ever
:06:09. > :06:10.any danger of the fuel itself catching alight?
:06:11. > :06:14.No, those storage tanks are underground, the fire
:06:15. > :06:19.was quickly identified by staff members and a member of the public
:06:20. > :06:21.who isolated the petrol pumps, which minimised the risk.
:06:22. > :06:25.The fire spread quickly within the building but firefighters
:06:26. > :06:28.were there very quickly to bring it under control and there was never
:06:29. > :06:30.any danger of the petrol tanks becoming involved.
:06:31. > :06:33.But it was thanks to the quick thinking of staff and members
:06:34. > :06:37.of the public that stop it spreading further?
:06:38. > :06:50.Two staff members heard a bang and subsequently saw smoke coming
:06:51. > :06:54.A member of the public was there as well and they cleared
:06:55. > :06:56.the shop called the fire brigade very quickly.
:06:57. > :06:59.You have said you were very busy this weekend.
:07:00. > :07:09.I think some of the major fires we have had, and we have had three
:07:10. > :07:11.significant fires over the weekend, are unconnected with the nice
:07:12. > :07:13.weather, however some of the more minor fires,
:07:14. > :07:18.and we had two substantial gorse fires, I think can be attributed
:07:19. > :07:20.to people getting out there and enjoying the weather
:07:21. > :07:23.and perhaps carelessly discarding smoking materials or sadly
:07:24. > :07:28.deliberately setting fire to some areas of grass and gorse land.
:07:29. > :07:33.And of course everything is very dry at the moment, so you're warming
:07:34. > :07:39.We would just ask people to be very vigilant and careful
:07:40. > :07:47.Enjoy the weather and lovely Suffolk countryside but please be careful
:07:48. > :07:55.if you are having an outside barbecue or smoking,
:07:56. > :08:07.Drivers were urged to be patient today after one of the main arterial

:08:14. > :08:19.Let's get the details now from Debbie Tubby.
:08:20. > :08:31.This is the whole road, a key road into Norwich and it has been closed
:08:32. > :08:37.for four days while they start to build a roundabout that will link
:08:38. > :08:37.the road. The closure has already caused frustration for local
:08:38. > :08:40.businesses and motorist. The first day of the road closure
:08:41. > :08:42.is creating confusion. Even this ambulance responding
:08:43. > :08:45.to an emergency is turned around. Many drivers also ignore
:08:46. > :08:48.the diversion signs, unsure exactly It is also affecting Charlie Taylor,
:08:49. > :08:53.who has a window tinting It is taking me longer
:08:54. > :08:57.to get to work, customers People are holding off coming
:08:58. > :09:09.in now, so this week Marie and her son James
:09:10. > :09:14.are beef and arable farmers. The road closure is costing
:09:15. > :09:21.them time and money. It is a six mile extra radius,
:09:22. > :09:24.which is taking us well over an extra half an hour each trip
:09:25. > :09:28.and when we have two or three trips It is costing us more money in fuel,
:09:29. > :09:35.time and making our life very This is a bird's eye

:10:08. > :10:11.for the delays. There will be a lot of pressure
:10:12. > :10:17.in the area as this is a major project and we have got to press
:10:18. > :10:20.on and get it finished and one of the key parts
:10:21. > :10:23.to that is the big road junction. We already have the bridge
:10:24. > :10:25.established there and the beams on and people can see it coming
:10:26. > :10:28.into shape but there It is a controversial road
:10:29. > :10:35.costing ?178 million, but the council says it will bring
:10:36. > :10:50.huge economic benefits This section of road will open again
:10:51. > :10:56.on Friday but by the end of May it will close for never and will become
:10:57. > :11:00.a service road for farmers and local businesses. The whole thing is just
:11:01. > :11:06.the start of what will be long delays and longer versions until the
:11:07. > :11:09.divergent road is completed next March.
:11:10. > :11:11.The police in Essex say they are very concerned
:11:12. > :11:14.for the welfare of a three-year-old girl who has gone missing
:11:15. > :11:15.in the area around Clacton and Jaywick
:11:16. > :11:19.Peggie Happer was last seen on the 4th of April.
:11:20. > :11:23.The police believe Peggie may not be receiving the care she needs

:13:00. > :13:03.in Bedfordshire over the weekend It's hoped the airship could be
:13:04. > :13:08.airborne by the end of the week. After seven long months
:13:09. > :13:15.Airlander is back outside. At almost 92-metres long,
:13:16. > :13:18.containing enough helium to fill 15 Olympic swimming pools,
:13:19. > :13:22.it is an impressive sight. For safety reasons today this
:13:23. > :13:25.is as close as we can get to the Airlander
:13:26. > :13:28.because although it is tethered, it is now floating and moving
:13:29. > :13:35.around its moorings circle. This is the reason why
:13:36. > :13:37.it has been repaired. That nosedive landing on its second
:13:38. > :13:44.test flight back in August. Last week I revealed these
:13:45. > :13:49.new inflatable landing feet, which stow away in flight,
:13:50. > :13:51.have been fitted to stop Technology the pilots
:13:52. > :13:54.are keen to test. We have used that time to analyse
:13:55. > :13:57.all of our data from the last two flights and we have had the real
:13:58. > :14:00.luxury of having about six months to look at two
:14:01. > :14:03.flights worth of data, Some are visible stuff
:14:04. > :14:07.like the auxiliary landing system, the inflatable feet forward
:14:08. > :14:10.at the main skids, and they will allow us to test and push

:14:15. > :14:18.apprentices who grew up in the area, proud Airlander is back out
:14:19. > :14:21.and almost ready to go. I went to Shortstown Lower School
:14:22. > :14:29.and the logo on the uniform was an airship, and now working
:14:30. > :14:32.with an airship on the famous Garden Hangers is just
:14:33. > :14:34.a brilliant feeling. Seeing it back out and rebuilt
:14:35. > :14:36.is an amazing feeling. Airlander could be back in the skies
:14:37. > :14:41.as early as the end of the week and the company has big
:14:42. > :14:43.plans beyond that. During the summer we hope to become
:14:44. > :14:45.a familiar sight throughout We'll look for some big events
:14:46. > :14:50.to visit so people can see us, and by the end of the summer
:14:51. > :14:53.hopefully look to go abroad, perhaps If this is a prototype,
:14:54. > :15:01.when will you look to be We look at the end of this year
:15:02. > :15:05.being the start of production We have got a couple of customers

:15:34. > :15:38.the English Premier League They may not be the best
:15:39. > :15:46.known team in MK, but they are certainly its most
:15:47. > :15:49.successful professional sports club. Now they've won promotion
:15:50. > :15:50.to Elite League, where they will play

:24:46. > :24:52.the average. It was still a cracking day with a blue sky and sunshine.
:24:53. > :24:58.And you can see from the satellite picture where we had the best of the
