Hello and welcome to Look East with Susie and me. | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
The government confirms plans for a new tunnel under the Thames. | :00:07. | :00:11. | |
They say it will boost the economy, but local people | :00:12. | :00:13. | |
These houses have been here for less than two years, | :00:14. | :00:18. | |
I was actually moved into a new-build home | :00:19. | :00:20. | |
months, I received notification that I could potentially be facing my | :00:21. | :00:26. | |
Travellers tell a judge they didn't realise they were breaking planning | :00:27. | :00:29. | |
laws when they developed their camp site. | :00:30. | :00:34. | |
We've been given exclusive access behind the scenes at one | :00:35. | :00:36. | |
of Britain's's major nuclear bases from the old Cold War. | :00:37. | :00:42. | |
And I've been to a major new exhibition by the | :00:43. | :00:45. | |
On show, some pieces of artwork that have never been seen | :00:46. | :00:49. | |
The region was promised an economic boost today when the government | :00:50. | :01:06. | |
confirmed plans for a new tunnel under the River Thames, | :01:07. | :01:09. | |
For 50 years the Dartford Crossing has provided the only road | :01:10. | :01:15. | |
link across the Thames, east of London. | :01:16. | :01:19. | |
The chosen option for the new Lower Thames Crossing | :01:20. | :01:23. | |
will be a tunnel under the river from Tilbury to Gravesend. | :01:24. | :01:26. | |
A new road will link the M25 near North Ockendon in Essex | :01:27. | :01:31. | |
The government says the scheme will cost ?4.4 billion and create | :01:32. | :01:35. | |
Let's go live to Simon Dedman at the Dartford Crossing. | :01:36. | :01:42. | |
Simon. Well, the crossing is falling well | :01:43. | :01:50. | |
at the moment, but do not be fooled, the surrounding roads are still a | :01:51. | :01:54. | |
dreadlocked and motorists from the East and holler us from our region | :01:55. | :01:57. | |
have been frustrated behind the real today as there has been eagerly 45 | :01:58. | :02:01. | |
minutes from Essex crossing the Thames. After years of talk, a new | :02:02. | :02:07. | |
crossing is coming. Crawling to the crossing in Essex | :02:08. | :02:12. | |
late this afternoon. Moving, barely. A nightmare for businesses and | :02:13. | :02:18. | |
commuters. When the Dartford Tunnel closed recently, tailbacks from the | :02:19. | :02:22. | |
bridge snaked all the way to this chart. Lorries were stuck for hours. | :02:23. | :02:27. | |
The new crossing further east is expected to take more than 12,000 | :02:28. | :02:31. | |
freight vehicles each day. For one local haulier and cannot come soon | :02:32. | :02:37. | |
enough. We are delighted, it is the only option that will see this Del | :02:38. | :02:41. | |
Boy the congestion and destruction that we have on a daily basis trying | :02:42. | :02:47. | |
and and from Kent. 15 miles down the Thames from London... Half a century | :02:48. | :02:52. | |
ago the first Dartford Tunnel was built followed by a bridge when the | :02:53. | :02:57. | |
Queen opened it in 1991. It was meant to relieve congestion but | :02:58. | :03:03. | |
today it is often gridlocked, hence the call for a new crossing. Well, | :03:04. | :03:06. | |
we now know there will be another one of these further down the | :03:07. | :03:10. | |
Thames, a tunnel from Kent coming up at East Tilbury and rejoining the | :03:11. | :03:14. | |
M25, it is designed to alleviate traffic here and on the eighth 13, | :03:15. | :03:19. | |
happy news for hauliers but not for some homeowners. Around 300 homes | :03:20. | :03:27. | |
will be demolished, including these in Essex, built just two years ago. | :03:28. | :03:31. | |
Many people in South XX are angry that the new link road to the tunnel | :03:32. | :03:38. | |
will tarmac over the green belt. -- south Essex. Disasters, it will | :03:39. | :03:44. | |
carve up the entire borough, 495,000 square metres of the ball land which | :03:45. | :03:48. | |
you cannot get back again. The local MP supports those who do not want | :03:49. | :03:52. | |
another crossing here. I will stand with my constituents and make sure | :03:53. | :03:57. | |
that they are supported at every step and whether that is if they | :03:58. | :04:01. | |
need to move home or whatever, we will be there to make sure that they | :04:02. | :04:06. | |
are looked after. The hope is that the new crossing will end congestion | :04:07. | :04:10. | |
over the Thames, then again, they said that about the crossing is that | :04:11. | :04:15. | |
came before. Well, in the last hour I have spoken | :04:16. | :04:20. | |
to the Transport Secretary, ironically Chris Grayling was | :04:21. | :04:22. | |
delayed because of the traffic but he has said it would take the best | :04:23. | :04:26. | |
part of the decade to build the new crossing down the Thames but has | :04:27. | :04:29. | |
said he expects it to within budget. Simon, thank you very much. | :04:30. | :04:36. | |
Train passengers have been experiencing serious delays this | :04:37. | :04:38. | |
evening after an incident at Chelmsford railway | :04:39. | :04:39. | |
British Transport Police say the main Greater Anglia line | :04:40. | :04:43. | |
was closed after a man was killed when he was hit by a train. | :04:44. | :04:46. | |
Our chief reporter Kim Riley is here. | :04:47. | :04:47. | |
Officers were called to the station at around 3.50pm this afternoon. | :04:48. | :04:52. | |
The ambulance service attended but the man hit by the train | :04:53. | :04:55. | |
British Transport Police say they are working to identify him | :04:56. | :04:59. | |
They say the incident in not currently being | :05:00. | :05:02. | |
Needless to say, this is causing huge problems for commuters. | :05:03. | :05:05. | |
Greater Anglia says it will giving out as much information as possible | :05:06. | :05:08. | |
to travellers affected by the disruption. | :05:09. | :05:09. | |
London-bound services from East Anglia are being | :05:10. | :05:11. | |
terminatied at Witham or Colchester and trains out of London are getting | :05:12. | :05:14. | |
Rail replacement buses were being arranged to serve | :05:15. | :05:17. | |
stations between Witham and Shenfield, and up to Braintree. | :05:18. | :05:20. | |
We understand First Essex Bus is accepting Greater Anglia | :05:21. | :05:22. | |
The disruption is likely to continue till at least 7 o'clock. | :05:23. | :05:36. | |
I have just been told that that will now be until eight o'clock this | :05:37. | :05:38. | |
evening. Thank you for that. A family of travellers have been | :05:39. | :05:41. | |
in the High Court today, telling a judge they didn't know | :05:42. | :05:44. | |
they were breaking planning laws when they developed | :05:45. | :05:46. | |
their site in Essex. They were giving evidence | :05:47. | :05:48. | |
after Basildon Council claimed that touring caravans were being replaced | :05:49. | :05:50. | |
by static mobile homes. Some local people are worried | :05:51. | :05:53. | |
the site could become What got the travellers into trouble | :05:54. | :06:00. | |
and anywhere this box at the High Court was this, replacing touring | :06:01. | :06:03. | |
caravans with bigger, static mobile homes, five or six feet longer, a | :06:04. | :06:09. | |
couple of feet wider and their lawyer Paul Clarke explains to the | :06:10. | :06:12. | |
judge why they had done it. He said that the mobile homes had toilets | :06:13. | :06:17. | |
and showers inside. He said of the travellers, misguided they may be, | :06:18. | :06:21. | |
but not Mayweather met. A traveller paid ?150,000 for the | :06:22. | :06:28. | |
sports at Silver Lodge, last October a court injunction was issued, | :06:29. | :06:32. | |
banning and -- unauthorised vehicles from the ports. Travelers ignored | :06:33. | :06:36. | |
that and replaced touring caravans with bigger static mobile homes. | :06:37. | :06:40. | |
During the hearing the lawyer for the travellers said that they had | :06:41. | :06:43. | |
apologised for breaching any injunction but they did not realise | :06:44. | :06:46. | |
they had done anything wrong. Today the judge, Mr Justice care, said a | :06:47. | :06:50. | |
prison sentence would be disproportionate and wrong. He said | :06:51. | :06:53. | |
he was going to give the five travellers who were in contempt of | :06:54. | :06:59. | |
court a chance to put things right. He postponed sentencing them until | :07:00. | :07:04. | |
the 5th of May. This is less than two miles from Dale Farm, one of the | :07:05. | :07:09. | |
biggest illegal traveller sites in Europe, years of legal wrangling | :07:10. | :07:13. | |
lead to a costly eviction. That is why this is so significant, | :07:14. | :07:18. | |
Councillor Phil Turner, the leading of Basildon borough Council, has | :07:19. | :07:20. | |
gone on record saying he was worried that this area could become a second | :07:21. | :07:25. | |
Dale Farm, but I spoke to one of the travellers today and he assured me | :07:26. | :07:29. | |
there was no way that all fields could have become a second Dale | :07:30. | :07:33. | |
Farm, he said Dale Farm had got out of control with families converging | :07:34. | :07:37. | |
there from all over the country. He said it is just one family on this | :07:38. | :07:41. | |
there is there and there is no plan for other families to arrive. | :07:42. | :07:45. | |
Basildon Borough Council will be hoping that what has been happening | :07:46. | :07:49. | |
here sent out a strong message that planning decisions will be enforced. | :07:50. | :07:54. | |
Gareth George, BBC Look East, at the High Court. | :07:55. | :07:57. | |
The number of people out of work in our region has fallen to 137,000. | :07:58. | :08:00. | |
That's a drop of 8,000 on the previous quarter. | :08:01. | :08:02. | |
In the East, 4.3% of the workforce is unemployed. | :08:03. | :08:04. | |
The renewables sector is one of those continuing to recruit, | :08:05. | :08:08. | |
as our business correspondent Richard Bond reports. | :08:09. | :08:20. | |
The seafront at Great Yarmouth has seen some memorable | :08:21. | :08:22. | |
sights over the years, but never this - an area next | :08:23. | :08:25. | |
to the outer harbour has been transformed into a construction yard | :08:26. | :08:28. | |
The towers are here, so too are the blades, | :08:29. | :08:31. | |
The job of the workforce is to assemble them for shipment | :08:32. | :08:38. | |
to the Galloper wind farm, being constructed offshore. | :08:39. | :08:40. | |
We ran an advert locally, we had over 1500 responses to the advert, | :08:41. | :08:43. | |
interviewed 250 people, as a result of which we have | :08:44. | :08:45. | |
We have been able to utilise some of the guys who were made redundant | :08:46. | :08:52. | |
in oil and gas and bring through some good college learners, | :08:53. | :08:55. | |
and also transition into military people, so it has come at a good | :08:56. | :08:58. | |
time when there are people available in the market with the right skills. | :08:59. | :09:01. | |
Galloper is a ?1.5 billion scheme 17 miles off the coast of Suffolk. | :09:02. | :09:05. | |
It's in two parts next to the existing Greater Gabbard field. | :09:06. | :09:10. | |
The construction phase of Galloper is creating 700 jobs. | :09:11. | :09:15. | |
Visitors to Yarmouth are used to looking out to the turbines | :09:16. | :09:18. | |
of the Scroby Sands windfarm, which opened 13 years ago. | :09:19. | :09:21. | |
It shows how much technology has moved on when I tell | :09:22. | :09:24. | |
you that the turbines being assembled here | :09:25. | :09:25. | |
Galloper's foundations on the sea bed have all been installed | :09:26. | :09:34. | |
and power cables laid to an onshore substation at Sizewell. | :09:35. | :09:38. | |
Crew transfer vessels are now regularly leaving Lowestoft | :09:39. | :09:40. | |
The renewables industry now allows offshore services | :09:41. | :09:48. | |
companies like 3sun to employ hundreds of people. | :09:49. | :09:52. | |
We started off in oil and gas, we are now 90% renewable, | :09:53. | :09:55. | |
so we have transitioned well into the renewables sector | :09:56. | :09:57. | |
and renewables, I think, is the industry to be | :09:58. | :09:59. | |
Green energy is changing the region's skyline. | :10:00. | :10:02. | |
It is also creating pathways to work for local people. | :10:03. | :10:04. | |
Richard Bond, BBC Look East, Great Yarmouth. | :10:05. | :10:15. | |
The booming biosciences sector in Norfolk has | :10:16. | :10:17. | |
with a Government grant of ?78 million. | :10:18. | :10:25. | |
which will be resistant to climate change. | :10:26. | :10:34. | |
The research also includes using plants to improve medicines. | :10:35. | :10:40. | |
The John Innes Centre already has a global reputation for excellence. | :10:41. | :10:42. | |
It is home to some of the world's best plant and food scientists. | :10:43. | :10:45. | |
This latest investment will help retain their position and build | :10:46. | :10:48. | |
It really helps us develop our research and maintain | :10:49. | :10:52. | |
and develop our position globally, I think. | :10:53. | :10:53. | |
But at the same time, besides the basic research | :10:54. | :10:56. | |
and discoveries that we will be able to make with this money, | :10:57. | :10:59. | |
we very much hope that the products of what we do will contribute | :11:00. | :11:02. | |
And if you had not got this money, what would have happened? | :11:03. | :11:10. | |
There would have been job losses, I think. | :11:11. | :11:12. | |
The John Innes Centre is at the heart of the Norwich Research Park. | :11:13. | :11:15. | |
Its neighbour is the new food and health hub, | :11:16. | :11:18. | |
the Quadram Institute - the purple building currently | :11:19. | :11:20. | |
under construction - all working together to improve | :11:21. | :11:22. | |
Instead of living in fear of antibiotic resistance, | :11:23. | :11:33. | |
we can discover new antibiotics to tackle any infection. | :11:34. | :11:35. | |
Instead of being at the mercy of climate change and pests, | :11:36. | :11:38. | |
we can tailor crops to thrive in any environment. | :11:39. | :11:40. | |
And as this promotional video shows, the plan is to break down | :11:41. | :11:43. | |
the barriers merging the expertise of scientists, chemists and | :11:44. | :11:45. | |
Growing a world-leading bioscience hub... | :11:46. | :11:54. | |
This is one of the key areas the funding will help over the next | :11:55. | :12:00. | |
five years as scientists rise to the challenge of increasing | :12:01. | :12:02. | |
our wheat yields by 60% across the world by the year 2050, | :12:03. | :12:05. | |
and that is because of climate change and the increase | :12:06. | :12:07. | |
We can all use the funding we have received to address key issues | :12:08. | :12:16. | |
regarding how crops perform in the environment, how | :12:17. | :12:20. | |
crops react to changes in temperature, for instance. | :12:21. | :12:24. | |
And in that way, meet the challenges that are facing us regarding food | :12:25. | :12:28. | |
security and producing food crops in a sustainable manner. | :12:29. | :12:32. | |
The centre, which moved to Norwich 50 years ago this year, | :12:33. | :12:35. | |
It is now bidding for a multi-million pound investment | :12:36. | :12:38. | |
Debbie Tubby, BBC Look East, Norfolk. | :12:39. | :12:53. | |
You're watching Look East, with Susie and me. | :12:54. | :12:55. | |
A rare glimpse inside a Cold War nuclear shelter. | :12:56. | :13:00. | |
Alex looks ahead to the Easter weekend weather. | :13:01. | :13:02. | |
And a new exhibition celebrating the artistic genius | :13:03. | :13:04. | |
the American Secretary of State has been in Moscow | :13:05. | :13:15. | |
for talks with the Russians about the tension in the Middle East. | :13:16. | :13:20. | |
It will bring back memories for lots of us | :13:21. | :13:23. | |
about the friction between the two super powers | :13:24. | :13:25. | |
American airbases here were very much focused | :13:26. | :13:31. | |
Today, we were given a rare opportunity to look | :13:32. | :13:35. | |
round an old nuclear bomb shelter at RAF Alconbury | :13:36. | :13:39. | |
A structure designed withstand atomic attack. | :13:40. | :13:41. | |
And there are 1094 to film the last aircraft leave for good. And like | :13:42. | :13:57. | |
the spy planes which operated here, the American base itself is shrouded | :13:58. | :14:02. | |
in secrecy. 23 years on we have been given an opportunity to unlock some | :14:03. | :14:04. | |
of the mysteries about exactly what went on there. It is almost deserted | :14:05. | :14:11. | |
now but during its Aidy this last 11,000 acre base was home to almost | :14:12. | :14:15. | |
2000 personnel. Where I am standing right now on top of this hardened | :14:16. | :14:20. | |
concrete bunker, they used to store nuclear missiles. As well as | :14:21. | :14:23. | |
component parts for nuclear bombs, it was home to the U2 or Dragon lady | :14:24. | :14:30. | |
from 1982. It was a high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft whose | :14:31. | :14:33. | |
primary mission was to spy on the soviet Union. As Cold War tensions | :14:34. | :14:39. | |
escalated, so that investment in the base, ?70 million avionic building | :14:40. | :14:44. | |
the jewel in the Crown. The spy footage was placed in a truck, then | :14:45. | :14:50. | |
driven into here, as was the pilot. Essentially, the talks would drive | :14:51. | :14:53. | |
right up here and from their unknown straightaway. The pilots would go | :14:54. | :14:59. | |
into this room first, dropped their initial kit and take their helmets. | :15:00. | :15:05. | |
The series was so strategically important that even in the event of | :15:06. | :15:08. | |
a nuclear attack here, all pilots flying through, business had to go | :15:09. | :15:15. | |
on. The pilots would come in here, take a shower and fly again. If you | :15:16. | :15:21. | |
come down here, you can see some of the kit that kept the area safe and | :15:22. | :15:25. | |
they power going during the event of a nuclear bomb. Why was this base | :15:26. | :15:31. | |
not in the public eye as much as C, others? It was to do with the | :15:32. | :15:35. | |
connections and where the storage happened on the site, that meant it | :15:36. | :15:40. | |
was more discreet, less visible. New development is very much the focus | :15:41. | :15:43. | |
here but the structures of the past hold their own, unique importance as | :15:44. | :15:48. | |
well. The list of buildings and the stories that the kelp are crucial | :15:49. | :15:52. | |
part of that future, so whilst we have houses being built and | :15:53. | :15:56. | |
residents moving in and businesses, we are developing a plan to open up | :15:57. | :15:59. | |
some of this history and be able to tell the story of the Cold War as it | :16:00. | :16:07. | |
continued in this area. Joseph Hall, BBC Look East. | :16:08. | :16:12. | |
Just some news, we spoke about the secretary of state being in Russia, | :16:13. | :16:20. | |
the Russian Foreign Secretary has said that talks with his American | :16:21. | :16:23. | |
counterpart Rex Tillerson have been frank and fear and they have managed | :16:24. | :16:29. | |
to cover issues relevant to both sides. Now time for the sport. | :16:30. | :16:35. | |
The Ipswich Town manager Mick McCarthy | :16:36. | :16:37. | |
has told the BBC he won't walk away from his job. | :16:38. | :16:43. | |
The club is looking at its worst finish in the Championship | :16:44. | :16:46. | |
since he joined just over 4 years ago. | :16:47. | :16:48. | |
But he says he has no intention of standing down. | :16:49. | :17:00. | |
No, because I enjoy my job. All the suggestions that I am ruling the | :17:01. | :17:06. | |
cob, what a load of nonsense. I have had to the top ten finishes. The one | :17:07. | :17:10. | |
time I have a bad season, people have turned their backs on the | :17:11. | :17:16. | |
widget is a prize and is disappointing. I am not walking away | :17:17. | :17:20. | |
from it, I have my contract left to run and unless something else is | :17:21. | :17:23. | |
done, I am not walking away. I will be here and planning for next | :17:24. | :17:30. | |
season. I am looking forward to it. I am looking to get enough points to | :17:31. | :17:34. | |
stay in this league, go and have a break and come back with lots of | :17:35. | :17:36. | |
them and vigour. When he took over they were in | :17:37. | :17:46. | |
trouble. He has a point. Yes, they were bottom of the championship, he | :17:47. | :17:49. | |
has had the top ten finishes but the problem this season is that he has | :17:50. | :17:52. | |
not spent any money, computer Norwich City which has had a | :17:53. | :17:55. | |
parachute payments from the Premier League. They were still outside the | :17:56. | :17:59. | |
top six and they will finish there. That is where the real problem has | :18:00. | :18:06. | |
been and the fans are not happy. Do you get the sense it might not be | :18:07. | :18:09. | |
his decision. In most cases it is really the manager that walks. It is | :18:10. | :18:13. | |
all was the top brass that ends up firing someone. Those jeers that | :18:14. | :18:17. | |
have been coming in the background, he might put his fingers in his ears | :18:18. | :18:22. | |
but if the chairman is bustling, you do not know what might happen in the | :18:23. | :18:24. | |
summer. Thank you very much. | :18:25. | :18:26. | |
Next week, the squad for the Lions tour of New Zealand is announced. | :18:27. | :18:29. | |
A handful of Northampton Saints are expected to be included | :18:30. | :18:32. | |
but surprisingly, Dylan Hartley is not guaranteed a place. | :18:33. | :18:34. | |
There is one game left to make an impression. | :18:35. | :18:37. | |
Northampton play the defending champions Saracens at Stadium MK. | :18:38. | :18:39. | |
Dylan Hartley, the player used to the limelight whose career is often | :18:40. | :18:49. | |
caught on camera. Before the shoot today was in his club colours ahead | :18:50. | :18:53. | |
of the huge game for Rockhampton against Saracens at the Stadium MK. | :18:54. | :18:57. | |
Will he be doing something similar for the British and Irish Lions in | :18:58. | :19:02. | |
seven days' time? To be selected would be a great honour. I have | :19:03. | :19:07. | |
grievously been selected so it is a great honour but to tour, that would | :19:08. | :19:11. | |
be a great experience as well. I am not counting my chickens, I want to | :19:12. | :19:22. | |
build myself up. I am taking it as it comes. I am happy where I am at | :19:23. | :19:26. | |
the moment. There are three positions at hooker up for grabs and | :19:27. | :19:33. | |
format in contention and yet, this 66 Nations winning captain might not | :19:34. | :19:37. | |
make the trip. He has only lasted 50 minutes in Test matches for England | :19:38. | :19:42. | |
and Warren Gatland will look for a player capable of playing longer. In | :19:43. | :19:47. | |
2013, he was called up for the tour against Australia for the Lions. But | :19:48. | :19:52. | |
a colourful backchat Aire River beat put paid to that. His ill discipline | :19:53. | :19:56. | |
cost them a place in the World Cup. But there's the disappointment of | :19:57. | :20:03. | |
four years ago still linger? I missed out in 2013 with the Lions | :20:04. | :20:10. | |
and it does not motivate me to get up every morning but I know what | :20:11. | :20:15. | |
Warren Gatland once, I know what Eddie Jones warns of me and he makes | :20:16. | :20:20. | |
it pretty clear. For now, Hartley must help the scenes finds and | :20:21. | :20:24. | |
steel, they badly need a win against the premiership champions on Sunday. | :20:25. | :20:30. | |
The top teams at the moment are the teams with the momentum and leave | :20:31. | :20:33. | |
with the points. We have not been the best at doing that. This not | :20:34. | :20:41. | |
completely done for us, there is a character there for us. Three games | :20:42. | :20:44. | |
left for scenes to rescue their season, just one for Hartley. In one | :20:45. | :20:50. | |
week's time he will know that he has the north of the Lions or not. James | :20:51. | :20:52. | |

The former home and studios of the sculptor Henry Moore re-opens | :20:57. | :20:59. | |
with a special exhibition charting his rise as an artist. | :21:00. | :21:03. | |
His iconic work is showcased in seventy acres of | :21:04. | :21:05. | |
and will include works which have never been on display before. | :21:06. | :21:23. | |
It opens on Good Friday and Katherine Nash has been to see it. | :21:24. | :21:26. | |
Pieces of artwork rarely placed on display by one of Britain's | :21:27. | :21:28. | |
Born in 1898, Henry Moore's new exhibition at his studios | :21:29. | :21:32. | |
in Hertfordshire charts his coming-of-age as an artist | :21:33. | :21:34. | |
Sebastiano Barassi is the curator here. | :21:35. | :21:36. | |
He has been working on this exhibition for years, | :21:37. | :21:38. | |
sourcing artwork, not only from across the country, | :21:39. | :21:42. | |
Well, this is a small piece from circa 1922, 1924, | :21:43. | :21:49. | |
when Henry Moore was a student in London at the Royal | :21:50. | :21:52. | |
So this is a plasticine maquette which he made on the subject | :21:53. | :22:00. | |
I understand that this has never been seen by the public | :22:01. | :22:04. | |
The reason is because these pieces are quite experimental, | :22:05. | :22:12. | |
they are ideas in development rather than finished work, and therefore | :22:13. | :22:16. | |
they do not necessarily have that wide appeal and they do not | :22:17. | :22:19. | |
necessarily look like the work of Moore. | :22:20. | :22:21. | |
There are five studios here at the foundation | :22:22. | :22:23. | |
in Hertfordshire, this one is called the Maquette Studio, | :22:24. | :22:27. | |
which means model in French, and this is where Henry Moore | :22:28. | :22:31. | |
created models of the sculptures before working on the real thing. | :22:32. | :22:35. | |
This latest exhibition coincides with the opening of a new visitor | :22:36. | :22:38. | |
centre and the 40th anniversary of the Henry Moore Foundation. | :22:39. | :22:45. | |
Well aware of financial struggles, he set up the trust to give grants | :22:46. | :22:48. | |
This is a very special time for the foundation, | :22:49. | :22:52. | |
it is our 40th birthday and we have just invested in new facilities | :22:53. | :22:55. | |
We have built a fabulous new visitor centre, we have developed an amazing | :22:56. | :23:06. | |
archive to store all of Moore's papers, letters and photographs, | :23:07. | :23:08. | |
and what better than to go back to Henry Moore's early career | :23:09. | :23:11. | |
and look at the way that he became the great artist | :23:12. | :23:14. | |
Becoming Henry Moore opens to the public on Good Friday | :23:15. | :23:19. | |
An opportunity to catch a glimpse of artwork never seen before by such | :23:20. | :23:23. | |

Some of it is stunning, isn't it? The temperatures at the weekend seem | :23:38. | :23:46. | |
longer we now! Yes, it will be cooler for the | :23:47. | :23:50. | |
Easter weekend. But there should be quite a lot of dry weather around, | :23:51. | :23:53. | |
that is the good news but did not expected to be as warm as last | :23:54. | :23:56. | |
weekend. Photographs from across the region today. There has not been a | :23:57. | :24:00. | |
lot of cloud but there has been sunshine and some of these | :24:01. | :24:04. | |
photographs more sunshine and cloud, such as in Suffolk. More sunshine in | :24:05. | :24:10. | |
Essex. This is the satellite picture, quite a ride cold front | :24:11. | :24:14. | |
introducing cooler area but also putting a lot of cloud across the | :24:15. | :24:17. | |
region. As it clears to the South East, it is starting to Brighton, so | :24:18. | :24:21. | |
you could see some sunshine before the end of the day. Some light and | :24:22. | :24:25. | |
patchy rain as well. The chance of a splash of rain for parts of the | :24:26. | :24:32. | |
region. During the night, increasing Keir Starmer is right across and | :24:33. | :24:35. | |
that will mean a colder night and last night. There is the risk of | :24:36. | :24:38. | |
some ground frost as temperatures in some areas could fall to as low as | :24:39. | :24:45. | |
two, three degrees. Those places could get colder than that. We start | :24:46. | :24:50. | |
the day tomorrow on a chilly note. The pressure Parton is showing | :24:51. | :24:54. | |
predominantly High pressure, still a cool, North-Westerly breeze. That | :24:55. | :24:58. | |
should ease through the day. Lots of sunshine for the morning. As they go | :24:59. | :25:02. | |
through the day, the card will tend to increase from the North West, it | :25:03. | :25:06. | |
will cloud over and there is the chance of a light shower somewhere. | :25:07. | :25:10. | |
Foremost, it was the guy throughout the day. Cooler under the cloud, | :25:11. | :25:15. | |
perhaps 11, 12 degrees, if there is any brightness through the morning, | :25:16. | :25:18. | |
it might lift the temperatures higher, but it looks dry for the | :25:19. | :25:23. | |
bulk of the day but patchy rain. That means a little bit of a damp | :25:24. | :25:29. | |
start to the weekend to Good Friday certainly. This is the Easter | :25:30. | :25:32. | |
weekend pressure Parton, you can see High pressure is the predominant | :25:33. | :25:35. | |
feature. Some weather features are floating around and that could bring | :25:36. | :25:40. | |
us some rain at times. The main message is that it will be largely | :25:41. | :25:42. | |
dry with some good spells of sunshine. Having said that, Friday | :25:43. | :25:46. | |
could be a little bit cloudy with some rain to clear first thing, | :25:47. | :25:50. | |
brightening up through the day, Saturday and Sunday look as though | :25:51. | :25:53. | |
they could be cooled diesel of sunshine but a cool breeze from the | :25:54. | :25:57. | |
North West. The chance of one or two showers but for most places it | :25:58. | :26:00. | |
should stay dry. Thank you for that, Alex. | :26:01. | :26:07. | |
Wrap up warm! That is it, see you tomorrow. Good night. | :26:08. | :26:37. | |
