0:00:00 > 0:00:01That's all from the BBC News at Six.
0:00:04 > 0:00:05Hello and welcome to Look East.
0:00:05 > 0:00:10In the programme tonight - Tears and Cheers.
0:00:10 > 0:00:14DIY SOS and teams of volunteers transform the life of a man left
0:00:14 > 0:00:19disabled after an attack.
0:00:19 > 0:00:28The fact that sees essentially got a life sentence himself, and so his
0:00:28 > 0:00:39wife who has become a wife and carer rather than the daughter that her
0:00:39 > 0:00:40father wishes she had.
0:00:40 > 0:00:41Hospital appointment letters appealing for donations -
0:00:41 > 0:00:47An MP says it's a form of begging and it's unacceptable.
0:00:48 > 0:00:48I'm
0:00:52 > 0:00:55I at the fayre Bury St Edmunds as security is stepped up.
0:00:55 > 0:00:58And a dramatic 24 hours as Look East witnesses more than 200 migrants
0:00:58 > 0:00:59including a newborn baby rescued in the Mediterranean.
0:01:04 > 0:01:05Hello.
0:01:05 > 0:01:08The lives of a disabled man and his family have been transformed
0:01:08 > 0:01:11thanks to a team of volunteers in Suffolk and a BBC TV programme.
0:01:11 > 0:01:16Simon Dobbin was left brain damaged after being attacked by a gang
0:01:16 > 0:01:21of hooligans after a football match in Southend.
0:01:21 > 0:01:24For more than two years his wife has been his fulltime carer
0:01:24 > 0:01:26but their home in Mildenhall hasn't been able to
0:01:26 > 0:01:29accommodate his complex needs.
0:01:29 > 0:01:35This morning though, that changed.
0:01:35 > 0:01:37Day ten of the big build and some last-minute touches.
0:01:37 > 0:01:39More than 100 volunteers have gutted then
0:01:39 > 0:01:46transformed the small terraced house in Mildenhall for Simon Dobbin.
0:01:46 > 0:01:49The Cambridge United fan was left with severe brain injuries
0:01:49 > 0:01:51after being attacked by football hooligans in Southend in 2015.
0:01:51 > 0:01:54After leaving hospital, his bed has been in the dining room,
0:01:54 > 0:01:55a wet room part of the makeover.
0:01:55 > 0:01:58We can't show you the end result, that must wait
0:01:58 > 0:02:00until the programme shown next year.
0:02:00 > 0:02:06But presenter Nick Knowles led the way, as Simon's wife
0:02:06 > 0:02:08Nicole and daughter Emily, eyes firmly shut, had
0:02:08 > 0:02:09their first glimpse.
0:02:09 > 0:02:11This family's plight has been very widely publicised
0:02:11 > 0:02:12by yourself and other media.
0:02:12 > 0:02:21So I think that the whole of Suffolk has taken it to the heart
0:02:21 > 0:02:24and we have had enormous goodwill, not least in things like scotch eggs
0:02:24 > 0:02:27and cakes and things and people cooking and baking for us.
0:02:27 > 0:02:29So it's very lovely that 100-110 volunteers per day has
0:02:29 > 0:02:30been well looked after.
0:02:30 > 0:02:32Here come the heroes that have made it all happened.
0:02:32 > 0:02:34Firms have donated materials, builders, plumbers,
0:02:34 > 0:02:35electricians and others, giving the labour free.
0:02:36 > 0:02:38I do it all again in a heartbeat.
0:02:38 > 0:02:39The feel on the build was absolutely fantastic.
0:02:40 > 0:02:44I'm privileged to be a part of it.
0:02:44 > 0:02:46The amount of people you get here is unreal.
0:02:46 > 0:02:49What's going on in the world today, you still get all those
0:02:49 > 0:02:50good-hearted people, it's great.
0:02:50 > 0:02:51Great bunch of lads.
0:02:51 > 0:02:53Good camaraderie, and banter like you never know anywhere else.
0:02:54 > 0:03:02So I'm going to miss them.
0:03:02 > 0:03:04Clive Morris, who worked alongside Simon in the RAF
0:03:04 > 0:03:06regiment, part of a team from Hollington and Marham.
0:03:06 > 0:03:09I think it's one of those things you couldn't have missed,
0:03:09 > 0:03:10knowing Simon before.
0:03:10 > 0:03:15A lot of the younger lads don't know him
0:03:15 > 0:03:16a connection, with the regiment.
0:03:16 > 0:03:19So yeah, we just needed to come up and do it.
0:03:19 > 0:03:24115 people per day has turned up here to get the house
0:03:24 > 0:03:26back for Simon and make the house work.
0:03:26 > 0:03:28It's pretty amazing because they haven't turned up
0:03:28 > 0:03:30with hammers just to smash a house about.
0:03:30 > 0:03:32They turned up here for a reason.
0:03:32 > 0:03:35They came here with a heart, they built this house with love.
0:03:35 > 0:03:37After their first viewing of the new look home,
0:03:37 > 0:03:39Nicole and Emily emerged to wild applause.
0:03:39 > 0:03:40The designer of the new abode?
0:03:40 > 0:03:43Laurence Llewellyn Bowen, looking on.
0:03:43 > 0:03:46Everything is perfect, nothing is going to be changed.
0:03:46 > 0:03:47Good old Laurence?
0:03:47 > 0:03:51Good old Lawrence.
0:03:51 > 0:03:54You know, he's done a cracker of a job in there, he's really
0:03:55 > 0:03:56made us feel very proud.
0:03:56 > 0:04:01They've listen to our likes and dislikes and they've made a home
0:04:01 > 0:04:04they've listened to what we wanted and they've put it into place.
0:04:04 > 0:04:06Simon is in Addenbrooke's Hospital, recovering from a chest infection.
0:04:06 > 0:04:09But DIY SOS and hundreds of good people have ensured his home
0:04:09 > 0:04:11is somewhere he can live with dignity.
0:04:14 > 0:04:16The family are staying in another house while
0:04:16 > 0:04:22the transformation is underway.
0:04:22 > 0:04:25Simon's wife Nicole is there now.
0:04:25 > 0:04:29You are quite emotional as he came out, what was the reveal like?
0:04:30 > 0:04:38It was amazing. We didn't know what to expect, it's at a small house
0:04:38 > 0:04:41that going in there and looking around, they've made it look so
0:04:41 > 0:04:46large and Simon's bedroom is just like a posh hotel room with ensuite.
0:04:46 > 0:04:51It meets his needs, everything is there that we need. He will be able
0:04:51 > 0:04:55to come into the lounge area. He'll be able to see the whole downstairs
0:04:55 > 0:05:00of the house but he wasn't able to do before. The garden is easy for
0:05:00 > 0:05:05him to access and it's just stunning.How much and Pat did you
0:05:05 > 0:05:11have to what they did because you said they listen to your likes and
0:05:11 > 0:05:15dislikes?Not a great deal, we were telling them what kind of colours we
0:05:15 > 0:05:20like and I might. That was basically it. Laurence Llewellyn Bowen, I
0:05:20 > 0:05:23spoke to him last week and he was taking the Mickey, saying the whole
0:05:23 > 0:05:27house was blue because blue is not my favourite colour. Actually what
0:05:27 > 0:05:33they've done is so stylish.Simon obviously is in hospital at the
0:05:33 > 0:05:37moment, how is he?He's doing well. He's getting ready for discharge.
0:05:37 > 0:05:49His been -- unable to the control his own secretions. The thing going
0:05:49 > 0:05:52into his lungs and be kept out of hospital for three long but
0:05:52 > 0:05:57unfortunately, because of the brain damage, he had to have a tracheotomy
0:05:57 > 0:06:05fitted. But I will go in and then he will be home.I know he understand
0:06:05 > 0:06:09exactly what's going on, what will his reaction be when he sees the
0:06:09 > 0:06:14transformation?I think the plan is to have a few people there when he
0:06:14 > 0:06:17does come home. He missed the big reveal today and the amount of
0:06:17 > 0:06:21people there was amazing. I think salmon will get quite tearful, he
0:06:21 > 0:06:26will love being centre of attention that he will also, it not a clinical
0:06:26 > 0:06:31room he's going into he will be overwhelmed but more relaxed in that
0:06:31 > 0:06:37room.What difference will it make to all of your lives?It's going to
0:06:37 > 0:06:41make our lives so much easier. We have the equipment in there that we
0:06:41 > 0:06:46didn't have before. We have an overhead ceiling hoist. Simon has
0:06:46 > 0:06:51his wet room. The things we were doing before, having to get a bowl
0:06:51 > 0:06:54of water, we won't have to do this any more and it will make life a
0:06:54 > 0:06:59much easier. To have Simon sitting at the lounge with us. The lounge,
0:06:59 > 0:07:02dining and kitchen is always a plant in a matter where we are in the
0:07:02 > 0:07:07living area, Simon Bull be with us. When are you moving in yourself?I'm
0:07:07 > 0:07:12going back tomorrow morning. Fantastic. We wish you all the best
0:07:12 > 0:07:17for your move back in. So happy for you all, thank you, Nicole.Thank
0:07:17 > 0:07:19you very much.
0:07:19 > 0:07:22The Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital has been criticised
0:07:22 > 0:07:24for including an appeal for charitable donations
0:07:24 > 0:07:25on its appointment letters.
0:07:25 > 0:07:27The N and N is the only hospital in Norfolk,
0:07:27 > 0:07:30Suffolk and Essex to appeal for money in this way.
0:07:30 > 0:07:32Patients are being asked to donate to 'provide
0:07:32 > 0:07:34the highest quality service'.
0:07:34 > 0:07:37This is Belinda with an appointment letter from the Norfolk
0:07:37 > 0:07:44and Norwich University Hospital.
0:07:44 > 0:07:47When she received it recently, Belinda was surprised to see
0:07:47 > 0:07:49a paragraph asking her to make a donation to the
0:07:49 > 0:07:52hospital's charity.
0:07:52 > 0:07:54The appeal says, with restrictions on public funding,
0:07:54 > 0:07:56voluntary donations can make a difference in supporting...
0:08:03 > 0:08:06I appreciate the NHS is short of funds and I know that they do get
0:08:06 > 0:08:09a lot of money from fundraising, often when people have
0:08:09 > 0:08:11had the treatment.
0:08:11 > 0:08:15But I think to actually get a letter saying that they are short of money
0:08:15 > 0:08:18and for high-quality treatment, could you consider making a donation
0:08:18 > 0:08:21when you haven't even been to the hospital yet, I think is just
0:08:21 > 0:08:24totally inappropriate.
0:08:24 > 0:08:27The hospital has a JustGiving page and people have long donated
0:08:27 > 0:08:29money to its charity.
0:08:29 > 0:08:33Last year, the charity raised over £1 million but the appeal for funds
0:08:33 > 0:08:36on every outpatient letter is raising eyebrows.
0:08:36 > 0:08:38I think many people be asking themselves this question.
0:08:38 > 0:08:41Today, we are putting at the bottom of patient letters,
0:08:41 > 0:08:44a begging bowl, in effect, asking for charitable
0:08:44 > 0:08:50funds for basic hospital equipment and services.
0:08:50 > 0:08:53Today, it is an ask but tomorrow, I think some people may
0:08:53 > 0:08:55think it can be a demand.
0:08:55 > 0:08:57It is a slippery slope that we are heading towards.
0:08:57 > 0:09:00So I think a lot of people will be worried about this.
0:09:00 > 0:09:04What to the public think of this idea?
0:09:04 > 0:09:07We did an unscientific straw poll in Norwich city centre.
0:09:07 > 0:09:09I don't think that should be on an official letter.
0:09:09 > 0:09:14Why?The health service is funded through taxation.
0:09:14 > 0:09:18We shouldn't have to rely on donations for our health service.
0:09:18 > 0:09:24Is it a sign of desperation?It's desperate times.
0:09:24 > 0:09:26The government isn't going to provide that money then
0:09:26 > 0:09:28I suppose there's got to get it from somewhere.
0:09:28 > 0:09:30The hospital has turned down our request for an interview
0:09:30 > 0:09:33but in a statement, a spokesperson told us, "Donations
0:09:33 > 0:09:35to the charity make a difference and we are incredibly grateful
0:09:35 > 0:09:39for the support we receive."
0:09:39 > 0:09:43Administrators who are running one of the region's biggest furniture
0:09:43 > 0:09:49firms say they're hopeful of finding a buyer.
0:09:49 > 0:09:54Multiyork collapsed last night, putting hundreds of jobs at risk.
0:09:54 > 0:09:58The group's 50 stores are remaining open for the time being.
0:09:58 > 0:09:59Multiyork headquarters today, the Thetford-based
0:09:59 > 0:10:01company continues to trade but with a workforce
0:10:01 > 0:10:06fearing the worst.
0:10:06 > 0:10:08About 300 people work here, most assembling furniture.
0:10:08 > 0:10:09But for how much longer?
0:10:09 > 0:10:11The administrators attributed company's collapse to weak
0:10:11 > 0:10:13consumer confidence, and a fall in the value
0:10:13 > 0:10:14of the pound.
0:10:14 > 0:10:18That has pushed up the cost of Multiyork's imported raw materials.
0:10:18 > 0:10:24The company has 50 stores nationwide including this one in Norwich.
0:10:24 > 0:10:26It has proved difficult to pass on price rises with so much
0:10:26 > 0:10:29competition on the high Street.
0:10:29 > 0:10:33What do shoppers make of Multiyork's demise?
0:10:33 > 0:10:37Seems quite sad, over the years that's been a big company.
0:10:37 > 0:10:41I believe it was opened one day and I was at Thetford
0:10:41 > 0:10:44with the factory and such but it seems quite sad, yeah.
0:10:44 > 0:10:46That's just another thing of the high street going.
0:10:46 > 0:10:47Disappointing really, because look at the places
0:10:47 > 0:10:51that are closing down.
0:10:51 > 0:10:58But some furniture firms are working flat out.
0:10:58 > 0:11:00Warings, near Attleborough, supplies large chains such
0:11:00 > 0:11:01as Costa and Center Parcs.
0:11:01 > 0:11:05So it's not exposed to the high street.
0:11:05 > 0:11:10We are always looking for upholsterers so the office
0:11:10 > 0:11:13stuff, there's plenty of opportunity here, and we are
0:11:13 > 0:11:14continually recruiting, we could probably add another 20
0:11:14 > 0:11:17plus people to the workforce straightaway and maybe a bit more.
0:11:17 > 0:11:21Back in Thetford, Multiyork is one of the mainstays of the economy.
0:11:21 > 0:11:27The town depends on manufacturing and last year, another big employer,
0:11:27 > 0:11:30Baxter Healthcare, was saved from closure by a £2 million
0:11:30 > 0:11:32grant from a public body.
0:11:32 > 0:11:35Just lately, there has been a spate of worrying announcements
0:11:35 > 0:11:38about major employers in Norfolk.
0:11:38 > 0:11:44The Coleman's and Britvic factories in Norwich face possible closure.
0:11:44 > 0:11:45The construction industry training board may move away
0:11:45 > 0:11:49from its base in West Norfolk.
0:11:49 > 0:11:53Now Multiyork could close unless the administrators can save it.
0:11:54 > 0:11:55Richard is here.
0:11:55 > 0:12:00So what are the chances of a deal to save jobs?
0:12:00 > 0:12:04The administrators say they are really hopeful of finding a buyer
0:12:04 > 0:12:08given the reputation for quality that Multiyork has. They also
0:12:08 > 0:12:11believe that the highly skilled workforce at the factory which is
0:12:11 > 0:12:16right beside the M11 in Thetford is also an asset that will attract
0:12:16 > 0:12:24buyers. They cannot do it until Christmas at the earlier.What about
0:12:24 > 0:12:33people that have ordered furniture? They have an looking at orders
0:12:33 > 0:12:37placed up until yesterday. They say they will all be honoured and
0:12:37 > 0:12:39customers will be contacted with further updates. Customers going
0:12:39 > 0:12:45into the shops from now on can basically buy furniture off the
0:12:45 > 0:12:49shelf. Furniture that is in the shop. But they can't it apparently,
0:12:49 > 0:12:55is ordered furniture to be made to order. And also no finance options
0:12:55 > 0:12:57are available, now.Richard, thank you very much.
0:12:57 > 0:13:01A grandfather- accused of killing his stepson
0:13:01 > 0:13:05almost fifty years ago has admitted shaking
0:13:06 > 0:13:10the toddler on the night he died.
0:13:10 > 0:13:11David Dearlove -
0:13:11 > 0:13:13who's 71 - and from Great Yarmouth -
0:13:13 > 0:13:15told the court it was 'playfully' done.
0:13:15 > 0:13:18He's accused of murdering 19 month old Paul Booth when he lived
0:13:18 > 0:13:19in the North East in 1968.
0:13:19 > 0:13:21He denies murder and says Paul fell out of bed.
0:13:21 > 0:13:24A driver arrested in connection with a fatal crash in Suffolk has
0:13:24 > 0:13:25been released pending further enquiries.
0:13:26 > 0:13:27A 23 year old man died
0:13:27 > 0:13:30in Addenbrooke's after the car he was travelling in hit a wall
0:13:30 > 0:13:31in Long Melford early yesterday morning.
0:13:31 > 0:13:34A man from Ipswich was arrested on suspicion of drug driving and
0:13:34 > 0:13:36causing death by dangerous driving.
0:13:42 > 0:13:45Still to come on the programme tonight - Alex will be
0:13:45 > 0:13:47here with news of a chilly weekend.
0:13:47 > 0:13:50And we are live at the Bury Christmas Fayre where armed police
0:13:50 > 0:13:52are on patrol after a year overshadowed by terrorist
0:13:52 > 0:13:55attacks at public events.
0:14:00 > 0:14:04This week we've been telling the story of Paul Chamberlain.
0:14:04 > 0:14:05He's from Norfolk
0:14:05 > 0:14:07but spends his time in charge of a boat called
0:14:07 > 0:14:09Mission Lifeline helping migrants who are in danger
0:14:09 > 0:14:10off the coast of Libya.
0:14:10 > 0:14:13He and his team have had a dramatic 24 hours.
0:14:13 > 0:14:15Yesterday we showed you how they rescued 43 men, women
0:14:15 > 0:14:17and children from a leaky boat.
0:14:17 > 0:14:19Now they've picked up a total of 262 people,
0:14:19 > 0:14:21including a baby born at sea.
0:14:21 > 0:14:26Our cameraman Shaun Whitmore and reporter Debbie Tubby
0:14:26 > 0:14:36are travelling with the rescue crew.
0:14:39 > 0:14:4133 degrees, 25, 012082, that's what we've got isn't it?
0:14:41 > 0:14:43Another group of migrants, this time identified from the air,
0:14:43 > 0:14:45spotted on a flimsy boat.
0:14:45 > 0:14:49On the so-called deadliest migration route in the world.
0:14:49 > 0:14:52The good weather and calm seas has encouraged them to risk their lives
0:14:52 > 0:14:54before the winter storms set in.
0:14:54 > 0:14:56Take our time, no rush.
0:14:56 > 0:14:58Let's make sure we count people on.
0:14:58 > 0:15:08Let's make sure we count people on.
0:15:08 > 0:15:10Paul briefs his crew on the latest situation.
0:15:10 > 0:15:13It's a simple humanitarian act and now to die at sea, really.
0:15:13 > 0:15:14For me, it's as simple as that.
0:15:14 > 0:15:16This is the second rescue in as many days.
0:15:16 > 0:15:20This time, we think there are about 80 people on board,
0:15:20 > 0:15:23we're not sure at this stage if it is wooden
0:15:23 > 0:15:24boat or an inflatable.
0:15:24 > 0:15:25There are in fact 95 on board.
0:15:25 > 0:15:28They've been unable to move from here for nine hours.
0:15:28 > 0:15:31Tensions are running high.
0:15:31 > 0:15:36Many of these are from Ghana and Libya.
0:15:36 > 0:15:40Fleeing persecution and civil war, looking for a better life.
0:15:41 > 0:15:44My baby, my mama.
0:15:44 > 0:15:46Silent, the baby is crying.
0:15:46 > 0:15:48They can only be rescued if the Italian maritime rescue
0:15:48 > 0:15:54coordination centre gives permission to do so.
0:15:54 > 0:16:04We've just been informed by MRCC in Rome there was another boat that
0:16:08 > 0:16:10and we are making speed, to save time when we get
0:16:10 > 0:16:11there, we've kept our
0:16:11 > 0:16:13rescue boat in the water.
0:16:13 > 0:16:15This time, they are from Gambia, Nigeria and Morocco.
0:16:15 > 0:16:17They welcome the helping hand and the friendly faces.
0:16:17 > 0:16:19For one man, it is just too much.
0:16:19 > 0:16:20He falls unconscious.
0:16:20 > 0:16:21Sean, my cameraman, puts his camera down,
0:16:22 > 0:16:23he helps to bring him round.
0:16:23 > 0:16:25Good work, Sean, good work.
0:16:25 > 0:16:30Many have travelled hundreds of miles to be here.
0:16:30 > 0:16:34They suffer from a lot of pain so the man usually suffers
0:16:34 > 0:16:38from malnutrition so they all have abdominal pain and because they
0:16:38 > 0:16:41haven't eaten for a long time, they haven't had a shower for a long
0:16:41 > 0:16:42time, so they have infections.
0:16:42 > 0:16:48I'm from Gambia.
0:16:48 > 0:16:49And you've been travelling for three years?
0:16:49 > 0:16:50Yeah.
0:16:50 > 0:16:54I want to work in this place.
0:16:54 > 0:16:56And the suffering in my country is too much.
0:16:56 > 0:16:58Are you hoping for a better life?
0:16:58 > 0:16:59Yeah.
0:16:59 > 0:17:01I need to have a better life.
0:17:01 > 0:17:03There are many children on board.
0:17:03 > 0:17:05This baby boy, literally born overnight on one
0:17:05 > 0:17:07of the inflatable boats.
0:17:07 > 0:17:10Oblivious to the world he would have had at home
0:17:10 > 0:17:13or the one that he now faces.
0:17:13 > 0:17:20The boats are destroyed, slashed or set on fire to stop
0:17:20 > 0:17:25the people smugglers from everusing them again.
0:17:25 > 0:17:27The ship is almost at full capacity, the crew
0:17:27 > 0:17:29working night and day.
0:17:29 > 0:17:31262 migrants safe, for now, believing Europe opened
0:17:31 > 0:17:35them a better life.
0:17:38 > 0:17:42We hope to have more from Debbie tomorrow.
0:17:42 > 0:17:45Armed Police are on patrol at the Christmas Fayre in
0:17:45 > 0:17:49Bury St Edmunds for the first time.
0:17:49 > 0:17:52Organisers say it's not in response to a specific threat
0:17:52 > 0:17:54but it follows a year overshadowed by terrorist
0:17:54 > 0:17:58attacks at public events.
0:17:58 > 0:18:00Bury Fayre attracts more than 100,000 people
0:18:00 > 0:18:02and was named the best in the country in an
0:18:02 > 0:18:03online poll last year.
0:18:03 > 0:18:09Alex Dunlop is there now.
0:18:09 > 0:18:16In the last 14 years, this Christmas Fayre has grown from 30 stalls to
0:18:16 > 0:18:20more than 300, it really is that popular. But with that comes huge
0:18:20 > 0:18:25crowd as you can see. In a very densely packed area, which does make
0:18:25 > 0:18:29it a potential target and so the decision to step up security in a
0:18:29 > 0:18:33very physical way.
0:18:33 > 0:18:35The front line against terrorism in the heart of Suffolk.
0:18:35 > 0:18:37A ring of steel and concrete installed around
0:18:37 > 0:18:40the centre of Bury St Edmunds to stop anyone using a vehicle as a
0:18:40 > 0:18:43weapon.
0:18:43 > 0:18:45Great shame.
0:18:45 > 0:18:47Particularly in a lovely market town that we live.
0:18:47 > 0:18:50To see these precautions that the authorities had to take.
0:18:50 > 0:18:53Just before 2pm, a final security briefing.
0:18:53 > 0:19:00And then the barriers are closed around Angel Hill.
0:19:00 > 0:19:03As one of the country's biggest Christmas Fayres gets underway.
0:19:03 > 0:19:05For the next three days, colour and carnival take over
0:19:05 > 0:19:07the town, attracting more than 100,000 visitors.
0:19:07 > 0:19:17And for the first time, this.
0:19:17 > 0:19:21Suffolk Police patrol openly with guns and sidearm.
0:19:21 > 0:19:26Out of sight, undercover officers mingle with the crowd.
0:19:26 > 0:19:29Among the 300 market stalls, Dennis and Theresa from Hertfordshire.
0:19:29 > 0:19:32We do over 100 shows a year up and down the country.
0:19:32 > 0:19:33Definitely this year, there has been a higher
0:19:33 > 0:19:36presence of security since all the terror alerts, really.
0:19:36 > 0:19:37Armed police?
0:19:37 > 0:19:38Definitely, armed police.
0:19:38 > 0:19:42Behind-the-scenes, Martin heads up the team that monitors everything.
0:19:42 > 0:19:44We've got the hostile vehicle mitigation that's going on in three
0:19:44 > 0:19:46locations to protect the higher crowd density areas.
0:19:47 > 0:19:48How's the operation shaping up?
0:19:48 > 0:19:49It's early yet, we've built everything, everything
0:19:49 > 0:19:50is up and running.
0:19:50 > 0:19:54Everything is operational.
0:19:54 > 0:19:59Last year, a lorry smashed into a crowded market place in Berlin
0:19:59 > 0:20:04killing 12 and injuring 50 more. The threat is even closer to haul
0:20:04 > 0:20:05killing a good home,
0:20:09 > 0:20:16-- from this pop concert, it is becoming more normal.We are taking
0:20:16 > 0:20:22even more trouble than normal to make sure people feel so to enjoy
0:20:22 > 0:20:26the Christmas Fayre.As the traditional lantern parade gets
0:20:26 > 0:20:31away, visitors except heightened security is set to stay.We saw
0:20:31 > 0:20:35police as he went out, but it makes you feel more secure.We know it's
0:20:35 > 0:20:40our safety so it's good.Its hometown, still got to come out, you
0:20:40 > 0:20:45can't let anybody get away with what they are getting away with.A few
0:20:45 > 0:20:51minutes ago, I had a chat with the local police chief inspector who
0:20:51 > 0:20:55assured me that Bury St Edmunds is not a specific
0:20:55 > 0:21:00target for terrorists but with the international thread at severe, the
0:21:00 > 0:21:04second-highest level, they say they cannot afford to take chances.
0:21:04 > 0:21:07Certainly the message tonight is that Bury St Edmunds is a safe town
0:21:07 > 0:21:13in a safe county and as you can see, anyone and everyone is welcome to
0:21:13 > 0:21:19visit this really spectacular Christmas Fayre. Alex, thank you.
0:21:21 > 0:21:23When Jared Carpenter joined City College Norwich five years ago
0:21:23 > 0:21:26he was so anxious he couldn't go into classrooms or walk
0:21:26 > 0:21:27around on his own.
0:21:27 > 0:21:29The college helped him through Phoenix Purple,
0:21:29 > 0:21:31its specialist centre for people with autism.
0:21:31 > 0:21:32And he flourished.
0:21:32 > 0:21:34He's currently doing his Masters in Mathematics at the University
0:21:34 > 0:21:38of East Anglia and has been chosen as a finalist in the National
0:21:38 > 0:21:39Student of the Year Awards.
0:21:39 > 0:21:41This afternoon Jared came into the studio
0:21:41 > 0:21:43with one of his teachers, Gemma Burton.
0:21:43 > 0:21:49I asked him how he felt about getting this recognition.
0:21:50 > 0:21:51Gobsmacked.
0:21:51 > 0:21:52Totally, utterly gobsmacked.
0:21:52 > 0:21:56I was speechless when I first heard.
0:21:56 > 0:21:59Let's see your certificate, hold that up to the camera so we can
0:21:59 > 0:22:08see.
0:22:08 > 0:22:09You've achieved so much at City College.
0:22:09 > 0:22:12What difference has it made, how they helped you?
0:22:12 > 0:22:13It's changed my life, really.
0:22:13 > 0:22:14Not just academic of course, emotionally.
0:22:14 > 0:22:17Before I attended there, I couldn't really do anything on my own.
0:22:17 > 0:22:20I was stuck at home a lot of the time, I didn't interact
0:22:20 > 0:22:23with many people so when I first arrived at the college,
0:22:23 > 0:22:26I was only in one day a week and had to be constantly supervised.
0:22:26 > 0:22:28By members of staff.
0:22:28 > 0:22:31I was too frightened even walk to the classroom down the hall.
0:22:31 > 0:22:33I can now navigate a whole university by myself.
0:22:33 > 0:22:34Fantastic.
0:22:34 > 0:22:37And Gemma, you are part of the course that help
0:22:37 > 0:22:38these young people.
0:22:38 > 0:22:41What do you do to make that difference, that
0:22:41 > 0:22:42you have made to Jared?
0:22:42 > 0:22:47It's very much about giving young people a fresh start for education.
0:22:47 > 0:22:54A lot of the students who come to us have had a very negative
0:22:54 > 0:22:56experiences at school, they've struggled to
0:22:56 > 0:22:59communicate, deal with the social interaction and some of them
0:22:59 > 0:23:00have been quite bullied.
0:23:00 > 0:23:02So when they come to us, it's very much about creating
0:23:02 > 0:23:05an environment which is nurturing, so we do things like developing
0:23:05 > 0:23:07independence skills, we do things link to understanding
0:23:07 > 0:23:10autism, actually where you are coming from, and celebrating
0:23:10 > 0:23:16it and being comfortable with that fact.
0:23:16 > 0:23:18When you see a success story like Jared, how
0:23:18 > 0:23:19does that make you feel?
0:23:19 > 0:23:20It's highly rewarding.
0:23:20 > 0:23:24We have lots of students who come through our particular course.
0:23:24 > 0:23:27It's really great to see how far someone can travel from day one,
0:23:27 > 0:23:31when we were escorting students to get lunch and even
0:23:31 > 0:23:35entering the building, right through to several years down
0:23:35 > 0:23:38the line, going on to university and studies and things
0:23:38 > 0:23:41they want to do in the future.
0:23:41 > 0:23:49And Jared, you found that you have a particular ability for maths?
0:23:49 > 0:23:52Was that something that you knew before you went to City College?
0:23:52 > 0:23:55No, really.
0:23:55 > 0:23:59I found that and developed it.
0:23:59 > 0:24:03As Gemma said, the timetable was based on what you want so I wanted
0:24:03 > 0:24:06to do a couple of GCSEs, so English and Maths,
0:24:06 > 0:24:09but while doing it I found I loved it.
0:24:09 > 0:24:13Thanks to my teachers I was able to get onto a full-time A-level
0:24:13 > 0:24:16programme and I could not have done that straight from my
0:24:16 > 0:24:17last specialist school.
0:24:17 > 0:24:19And now you're doing a Masters in maths at
0:24:19 > 0:24:20the University of East Anglia.
0:24:20 > 0:24:21I might quite like it though.
0:24:21 > 0:24:30You must be very good at it as well!
0:24:30 > 0:24:33I love spending time with academics and you get to have these wonderful
0:24:33 > 0:24:35conversations about maths, and uncapped level, you must say.
0:24:35 > 0:24:42I want to see which area of maths really takes my fancy so it could be
0:24:42 > 0:24:43scientific, I've always been interested in whether,
0:24:43 > 0:24:44that kind of thing.
0:24:44 > 0:24:46I've also always been interested in financial stuff.
0:24:46 > 0:24:48So maths could take you anywhere, really.
0:24:48 > 0:24:54I'll go anywhere they will take me.
0:24:54 > 0:24:56Well, huge congratulations, what a fantastic award to get.
0:24:56 > 0:24:58And thank you both so much for coming on the programme.
0:24:58 > 0:24:59Thank you for having us.
0:24:59 > 0:25:03Thank you.
0:25:03 > 0:25:06Jared needs to come in and talk to you.
0:25:06 > 0:25:09Jared needs to come in and talk to you. We are now starting to swap
0:25:09 > 0:25:13mild and windy weather for colder conditions and it will continue into
0:25:13 > 0:25:16the weekend. But at the pressure pattern, you can see we've got this
0:25:16 > 0:25:20weather front of the scene. That will bring some outbreaks of rain
0:25:20 > 0:25:24tonight. We are starting to bring a cold northerly wind in and you can
0:25:24 > 0:25:30see from the chart, all this cold air mass waiting to push down from
0:25:30 > 0:25:34the north, that mild air squeezed out the way. By the tomorrow, it
0:25:34 > 0:25:38will be blue by the cold air establishing itself across the
0:25:38 > 0:25:43country. -- this part of the country. Fantastic photographs today
0:25:43 > 0:25:48because there was lots of fine weather and windy. A good photograph
0:25:48 > 0:25:52with the leaf on the lens. The blogs are go and sunshine, clear sky to
0:25:52 > 0:25:55start this evening but as we go through the evening and night, more
0:25:55 > 0:25:58cloud from the south and the weather front will bring some outbreaks of
0:25:58 > 0:26:04rain. Not for everyone, some parts will stay dry, parts of North
0:26:04 > 0:26:09Norfolk and Cambridgeshire, and parts of Suffolk and Essex will see
0:26:09 > 0:26:13some of this rain. It will clear quite swiftly. It will be quite a
0:26:13 > 0:26:19chilly night though so colder than last night, three or four Celsius
0:26:19 > 0:26:23potentially, coldest temperatures across the region tonight. Into
0:26:23 > 0:26:27tomorrow, we have largely high pressure dominating, that
0:26:27 > 0:26:31north-westerly wind establishing itself in a cold fail to things,
0:26:31 > 0:26:35reasonably light winds that they will freshen by the weekend. Long
0:26:35 > 0:26:39spells of sunshine but there could be some showers. These are more
0:26:39 > 0:26:42likely to affect southern parts of the region that they could be a
0:26:42 > 0:26:45little bit further north sake you might get a shower but also sunshine
0:26:45 > 0:26:53around. It will fill quite chilly, 6-8dC are expected high. On the
0:26:53 > 0:26:56afternoon, they will fade away so it looks like it will stay dry to end
0:26:56 > 0:27:01the day then a sharp frost follows. Tomorrow night, many parts of the
0:27:01 > 0:27:05region below freezing. A sharp frost for Saturday morning. The pressure
0:27:05 > 0:27:07pattern is bringing high-pressure income and low pressure in the North
0:27:07 > 0:27:11grating is squeezed on the ice above, the north-westerly wind will
0:27:11 > 0:27:16make things really feel quite cold. During the weekend. There will be
0:27:16 > 0:27:21some swells of sunshine for our part of the country, a chilly wind and
0:27:21 > 0:27:26some frosty nights back. The outlook is looking a little bit like this.
0:27:26 > 0:27:305-7dC are expected high over the weekend, factor in that
0:27:30 > 0:27:33north-westerly wind, feeling colder and it looks like it might start to
0:27:33 > 0:27:33get a little milder
0:27:33 > 0:27:34and it looks like it might start to get a little milder to start next
0:27:34 > 0:27:38week again. I love that picture of the falling leaves, it was
0:27:38 > 0:27:43beautiful. That's all from us. Have a good evening, goodbye.
