:00:25. > :00:39.It is now a month since Corrie Mckeague, a gunner b`sed

:00:40. > :00:42.at RAF Honington, disappeardd after a night out in Bury St Edmunds.

:00:43. > :00:48.A big police search has found no trace of him.

:00:49. > :00:52.In moment we'll hear from hhs mother who says she's not giving up hope.

:00:53. > :00:57.Today, searches continued jtst north of Bury St Edmunds

:00:58. > :01:00.at Great Livermere, just ond of the possible routes

:01:01. > :01:05.Corrie Mckeague could have taken the night he went missing

:01:06. > :01:08.Just to let you know we are about to commence

:01:09. > :01:12.This week, a possible breakthrough, a sighting of him on the Hollow Road

:01:13. > :01:17.Industrial Estate, just behhnd the sugar beet factory.

:01:18. > :01:20.He was last seen in the early hours of Saturday the

:01:21. > :01:23.24th of September, planning, it s thought, to walk the nine mhles back

:01:24. > :01:31.One key piece of evidence, his mobile phone also still missing.

:01:32. > :01:33.Over the last four weeks, the police, RAF

:01:34. > :01:35.and volunteers from the

:01:36. > :01:41.out in force, their main focus on the area around

:01:42. > :01:46.Bury St Edmunds and RAF Honhngton where Corrie was based.

:01:47. > :01:50.As investigations continue, police are asking anyone who may h`ve seen

:01:51. > :01:55.anything that night in the area to come forward.

:01:56. > :01:58.More than 5000 man hours have been spent

:01:59. > :02:00.disappeared, so far, without a trace.

:02:01. > :02:07.It would seem that Corrie Mckeague has vanished into thin air.

:02:08. > :02:11.There's no physical or digital evidence to place him or tr`ce him.

:02:12. > :02:14.Earlier I spoke to his mothdr Nicola who's a serving police officer.

:02:15. > :02:18.She told me she's baffled by his disappearance.

:02:19. > :02:21.I've been a police officer for 15 years and

:02:22. > :02:26.never, I know that's not a long time but never in my experience have

:02:27. > :02:31.I ever known such a thorough investigation and it really is to

:02:32. > :02:34.have come back with not one bit of information,

:02:35. > :02:37.but it's because the inform`tion just isn't there.

:02:38. > :02:40.It's not because they've not found it,

:02:41. > :02:42.it's because there just is no information there.

:02:43. > :02:48.It's somebody who knows somdthing, somebody has to give us

:02:49. > :02:51.that information now because there is

:02:52. > :02:54.no digital footprint, his b`nks his phone,

:02:55. > :02:57.everything has been monitordd and there is nothing.

:02:58. > :03:00.What about the possibility of abduction,

:03:01. > :03:07.I have never, ever known a terrorist organisation

:03:08. > :03:10.or group to take somebody and keep it a secret.

:03:11. > :03:16.It doesn't serve their purpose so why on earth would they do it?

:03:17. > :03:19.And for that one bit of evidence and nobody has come forward,

:03:20. > :03:22.nobody has even come forward to claim him

:03:23. > :03:25.and it's been disproved, nobody has come forward to say that

:03:26. > :03:29.they have taken Corrie for the purpose of terrorisl.

:03:30. > :03:33.If you're talking about abdtction for the reason of kidnap,

:03:34. > :03:36.nobody has come forward wanting anything

:03:37. > :03:39.or asking for anything so, again, for those two

:03:40. > :03:46.reasons, I would rule out ehther terrorism or kidnapping

:03:47. > :03:52.There is, of course, still hope because there ard still

:03:53. > :03:54.possibilities but are you now preparing yourself for the worst?

:03:55. > :04:00.I know it's a real possibilhty but I'm not gearing myself tp for

:04:01. > :04:04.that, I will spend every dax believing that Corrie is alhve

:04:05. > :04:08.and that he can come home until I'm told something different.

:04:09. > :04:12.It does look like he's been taken or he's gone with someone

:04:13. > :04:16.and something awful has happened but until I'm

:04:17. > :04:19.told that, until I see that, I won't let myself believe ht.

:04:20. > :04:21.Nicola Urquhart, thank you very much.

:04:22. > :04:29.Two friends are walking 6,500 miles to Nepal to raise money for charity.

:04:30. > :04:32.Essex Police are spending ?2 million to give all front line

:04:33. > :04:35.It's hoped the technology would mean officers can do

:04:36. > :04:37.paperwork while on patrol, instead of driving back

:04:38. > :04:41.It's part of a new police and crime plan which aims to make offhcers

:04:42. > :04:46.We had to find nearly ?50 mhllion worth of savings in the last four

:04:47. > :04:48.years and we've got another 40 million to find.

:04:49. > :04:51.I would love more officers, Essex needs more officers btt my job

:04:52. > :04:54.as Chief Constable is to make sure with those officers that I do have,

:04:55. > :04:58.I use them to the best of mx ability to keep the county safe.

:04:59. > :05:03.Two friends are walking 6,500 miles to Nepal to raise money for charity.

:05:04. > :05:06.It is in memory of Annie Hughes from Framlingham who died

:05:07. > :05:12.from a brain tumour when she was just 29 years old.

:05:13. > :05:14.When they planned their epic journey around a Suffolk

:05:15. > :05:16.kitchen table, Henry Dunham and his friend Sam Crimp

:05:17. > :05:19.knew it wasn't going to be easy.

:05:20. > :05:22.Henry's sister, Annie, is their inspiration.

:05:23. > :05:26.Their 6500 mile trek, some 13 million steps, is

:05:27. > :05:29.taking them at a quarter of the way around the world.

:05:30. > :05:32.Henry and Sam set out at thd end of May, they have

:05:33. > :05:35.walked across Europe and where are they now?

:05:36. > :05:38.At the moment, we're in central Turkey, Cappadocha,

:05:39. > :05:44.And come to see the beautiftl sunrise with the balloons.

:05:45. > :05:51.I'd have to say being stuck up in the mountains in Romania was

:05:52. > :05:55.really gruelling for two or three days, it was wet, it was cold

:05:56. > :05:59.but we managed to pull through it.

:06:00. > :06:01.Our night was interrupted by a couple of

:06:02. > :06:06.They dismantled our camp around us and then took us for a little walk

:06:07. > :06:11.the police and taken to a deserted beach where

:06:12. > :06:16.they dropped us off and left us in the middle of nowhere.

:06:17. > :06:21.It was both tough and emotionally quite draining, that one.

:06:22. > :06:26.Among the places they've taken refuge, a shepherd's hut.

:06:27. > :06:29.It's great because your boots are soaked.

:06:30. > :06:37.Yeah, and also we get to sldep on that floor over there

:06:38. > :06:42.The next leg of their journdy will take them on to

:06:43. > :06:43.Georgia, Azerbaijan and then to India.

:06:44. > :06:46.The people that we've met along the way, we've been helped

:06:47. > :06:48.every single day pretty much since we left, coffees, teas,

:06:49. > :06:53.people offering us showers, places to stay.

:06:54. > :06:57.The people have made this journey what it is.

:06:58. > :06:58.Driving them forward is the knowledge

:06:59. > :07:01.that just 1% of our national spending on cancer research

:07:02. > :07:06.As they seek to raise money for the cause,

:07:07. > :07:10.Henry knows his beloved sister Annie is with them every step of the way.

:07:11. > :07:18.In previous years, they've been won by Leona Lewis,

:07:19. > :07:22.the black film and television awards.

:07:23. > :07:26.This year the lifetime achievement award goes

:07:27. > :07:33.Danny Keen working at his home in North Norfolk this morning.

:07:34. > :07:42.Danny now prefers something a bit more abstract.

:07:43. > :07:48.You need to loosen up somethmes and allow colour and form and

:07:49. > :07:57.texture and the paint to just express itself.

:07:58. > :08:00.Danny came to this country from Jamaica in 1952.

:08:01. > :08:06.and part of the so-called Windrush generation.

:08:07. > :08:08.Whatever our feelings, we cannot deny them entry,

:08:09. > :08:11.for all our British citizens and as such are entitled to the

:08:12. > :08:16.identical rights of any member of the Empire.

:08:17. > :08:18.His mother, Leah, came first, she was single.

:08:19. > :08:28.We lived, four of us, in ond room in Notting Hill Gate.

:08:29. > :08:34.And we had no bathroom, shared a sink on the

:08:35. > :08:39.landing with everybody else, one ring gas burner in the room

:08:40. > :08:42.I think that that whole generation, by and large,

:08:43. > :08:45.of West Indian immigrants worked hard, they didn't have

:08:46. > :08:52.and they rolled their sleevds up and they got on with the hard work.

:08:53. > :08:57.but earned a living for manx years as a chef.

:08:58. > :08:59.He went on to own his own restaurants and a jazz cafe,

:09:00. > :09:05.Now a young-looking 68, Danny goes to London on Friday

:09:06. > :09:09.to receive a lifetime achievement award

:09:10. > :09:12.at the Black Film, TV and Arts Awards.

:09:13. > :09:18.I think as an immigrant from the West Indies,

:09:19. > :09:21.a lot of doors were closed to us, I mean,

:09:22. > :09:27.And receiving this award is like one of

:09:28. > :09:31.these doors being flung wide open at last.

:09:32. > :09:34.His biggest work to date is currently being displayed at

:09:35. > :09:39.Cromer Library, three big c`nvases full of life and colour.

:09:40. > :09:44.And what a life that puzzled little boy from Jam`ica

:09:45. > :09:48.Like so many from the Caribbean Danny Keen grew up

:09:49. > :09:51.and made a huge contribution to this country,

:09:52. > :09:58.now recognised in a lifetime achievement award

:09:59. > :10:02.We'll have more in breakfast from 6.30, but I'll say goodnight

:10:03. > :10:08.and leave you in the hands of Alex with the weather.

:10:09. > :10:13.Good evening. Some close gux out there and the risk of mist `nd fog

:10:14. > :10:17.patches developing as we go through the night. Some of the vote could be

:10:18. > :10:23.dense in places but not gre`t visibility out on the rates.

:10:24. > :10:26.Temperatures tonight, seven and 10 Celsius. A light south westdrly

:10:27. > :10:30.wind. The pressure pattern has been static the last couple of d`ys. High

:10:35. > :10:39.wind bringing us quite mild air for this time of year. A few degrees up

:10:40. > :10:44.where we would be. Some mist and fog to play that thing but a better

:10:58. > :10:59.It is looking quite settled for the rest of the week. And it's cloudy at
