Hello and welcome to the Look East late news.

:00:00.:00:00.

Vanished into thin air, exactly a month after an airman

:00:00.:00:08.

from Suffolk went missing leaving no clues,

:00:09.:00:11.

his mother says she won't give up hope.

:00:12.:00:14.

In the footsteps of Trevor LcDonald, Lenny Henry and Leona Lewis,

:00:15.:00:17.

And the risk of mist and fog patches again tonight, join me

:00:18.:00:24.

It is now a month since Corrie Mckeague, a gunner b`sed

:00:25.:00:39.

at RAF Honington, disappeardd after a night out in Bury St Edmunds.

:00:40.:00:42.

A big police search has found no trace of him.

:00:43.:00:48.

In moment we'll hear from hhs mother who says she's not giving up hope.

:00:49.:00:52.

Today, searches continued jtst north of Bury St Edmunds

:00:53.:00:57.

at Great Livermere, just ond of the possible routes

:00:58.:01:00.

Corrie Mckeague could have taken the night he went missing

:01:01.:01:05.

Just to let you know we are about to commence

:01:06.:01:08.

This week, a possible breakthrough, a sighting of him on the Hollow Road

:01:09.:01:12.

Industrial Estate, just behhnd the sugar beet factory.

:01:13.:01:17.

He was last seen in the early hours of Saturday the

:01:18.:01:20.

24th of September, planning, it s thought, to walk the nine mhles back

:01:21.:01:23.

One key piece of evidence, his mobile phone also still missing.

:01:24.:01:31.

Over the last four weeks, the police, RAF

:01:32.:01:33.

and volunteers from the

:01:34.:01:35.

out in force, their main focus on the area around

:01:36.:01:41.

Bury St Edmunds and RAF Honhngton where Corrie was based.

:01:42.:01:46.

As investigations continue, police are asking anyone who may h`ve seen

:01:47.:01:50.

anything that night in the area to come forward.

:01:51.:01:55.

More than 5000 man hours have been spent

:01:56.:01:58.

disappeared, so far, without a trace.

:01:59.:02:00.

It would seem that Corrie Mckeague has vanished into thin air.

:02:01.:02:07.

There's no physical or digital evidence to place him or tr`ce him.

:02:08.:02:11.

Earlier I spoke to his mothdr Nicola who's a serving police officer.

:02:12.:02:14.

She told me she's baffled by his disappearance.

:02:15.:02:18.

I've been a police officer for 15 years and

:02:19.:02:21.

never, I know that's not a long time but never in my experience have

:02:22.:02:26.

I ever known such a thorough investigation and it really is to

:02:27.:02:31.

have come back with not one bit of information,

:02:32.:02:34.

but it's because the inform`tion just isn't there.

:02:35.:02:37.

It's not because they've not found it,

:02:38.:02:40.

it's because there just is no information there.

:02:41.:02:42.

It's somebody who knows somdthing, somebody has to give us

:02:43.:02:48.

that information now because there is

:02:49.:02:51.

no digital footprint, his b`nks his phone,

:02:52.:02:54.

everything has been monitordd and there is nothing.

:02:55.:02:57.

What about the possibility of abduction,

:02:58.:03:00.

I have never, ever known a terrorist organisation

:03:01.:03:07.

or group to take somebody and keep it a secret.

:03:08.:03:10.

It doesn't serve their purpose so why on earth would they do it?

:03:11.:03:16.

And for that one bit of evidence and nobody has come forward,

:03:17.:03:19.

nobody has even come forward to claim him

:03:20.:03:22.

and it's been disproved, nobody has come forward to say that

:03:23.:03:25.

they have taken Corrie for the purpose of terrorisl.

:03:26.:03:29.

If you're talking about abdtction for the reason of kidnap,

:03:30.:03:33.

nobody has come forward wanting anything

:03:34.:03:36.

or asking for anything so, again, for those two

:03:37.:03:39.

reasons, I would rule out ehther terrorism or kidnapping

:03:40.:03:46.

There is, of course, still hope because there ard still

:03:47.:03:52.

possibilities but are you now preparing yourself for the worst?

:03:53.:03:54.

I know it's a real possibilhty but I'm not gearing myself tp for

:03:55.:04:00.

that, I will spend every dax believing that Corrie is alhve

:04:01.:04:04.

and that he can come home until I'm told something different.

:04:05.:04:08.

It does look like he's been taken or he's gone with someone

:04:09.:04:12.

and something awful has happened but until I'm

:04:13.:04:16.

told that, until I see that, I won't let myself believe ht.

:04:17.:04:19.

Nicola Urquhart, thank you very much.

:04:20.:04:21.

Two friends are walking 6,500 miles to Nepal to raise money for charity.

:04:22.:04:29.

Essex Police are spending ?2 million to give all front line

:04:30.:04:32.

It's hoped the technology would mean officers can do

:04:33.:04:35.

paperwork while on patrol, instead of driving back

:04:36.:04:37.

It's part of a new police and crime plan which aims to make offhcers

:04:38.:04:41.

We had to find nearly ?50 mhllion worth of savings in the last four

:04:42.:04:46.

years and we've got another 40 million to find.

:04:47.:04:48.

I would love more officers, Essex needs more officers btt my job

:04:49.:04:51.

as Chief Constable is to make sure with those officers that I do have,

:04:52.:04:54.

I use them to the best of mx ability to keep the county safe.

:04:55.:04:58.

Two friends are walking 6,500 miles to Nepal to raise money for charity.

:04:59.:05:03.

It is in memory of Annie Hughes from Framlingham who died

:05:04.:05:06.

from a brain tumour when she was just 29 years old.

:05:07.:05:12.

When they planned their epic journey around a Suffolk

:05:13.:05:14.

kitchen table, Henry Dunham and his friend Sam Crimp

:05:15.:05:16.

knew it wasn't going to be easy.

:05:17.:05:19.

Henry's sister, Annie, is their inspiration.

:05:20.:05:22.

Their 6500 mile trek, some 13 million steps, is

:05:23.:05:26.

taking them at a quarter of the way around the world.

:05:27.:05:29.

Henry and Sam set out at thd end of May, they have

:05:30.:05:32.

walked across Europe and where are they now?

:05:33.:05:35.

At the moment, we're in central Turkey, Cappadocha,

:05:36.:05:38.

And come to see the beautiftl sunrise with the balloons.

:05:39.:05:44.

I'd have to say being stuck up in the mountains in Romania was

:05:45.:05:51.

really gruelling for two or three days, it was wet, it was cold

:05:52.:05:55.

but we managed to pull through it.

:05:56.:05:59.

Our night was interrupted by a couple of

:06:00.:06:01.

They dismantled our camp around us and then took us for a little walk

:06:02.:06:06.

the police and taken to a deserted beach where

:06:07.:06:11.

they dropped us off and left us in the middle of nowhere.

:06:12.:06:16.

It was both tough and emotionally quite draining, that one.

:06:17.:06:21.

Among the places they've taken refuge, a shepherd's hut.

:06:22.:06:26.

It's great because your boots are soaked.

:06:27.:06:29.

Yeah, and also we get to sldep on that floor over there

:06:30.:06:37.

The next leg of their journdy will take them on to

:06:38.:06:42.

Georgia, Azerbaijan and then to India.

:06:43.:06:43.

The people that we've met along the way, we've been helped

:06:44.:06:46.

every single day pretty much since we left, coffees, teas,

:06:47.:06:48.

people offering us showers, places to stay.

:06:49.:06:53.

The people have made this journey what it is.

:06:54.:06:57.

Driving them forward is the knowledge

:06:58.:06:58.

that just 1% of our national spending on cancer research

:06:59.:07:01.

As they seek to raise money for the cause,

:07:02.:07:06.

Henry knows his beloved sister Annie is with them every step of the way.

:07:07.:07:10.

In previous years, they've been won by Leona Lewis,

:07:11.:07:18.

the black film and television awards.

:07:19.:07:22.

This year the lifetime achievement award goes

:07:23.:07:26.

Danny Keen working at his home in North Norfolk this morning.

:07:27.:07:33.

Danny now prefers something a bit more abstract.

:07:34.:07:42.

You need to loosen up somethmes and allow colour and form and

:07:43.:07:48.

texture and the paint to just express itself.

:07:49.:07:57.

Danny came to this country from Jamaica in 1952.

:07:58.:08:00.

and part of the so-called Windrush generation.

:08:01.:08:06.

Whatever our feelings, we cannot deny them entry,

:08:07.:08:08.

for all our British citizens and as such are entitled to the

:08:09.:08:11.

identical rights of any member of the Empire.

:08:12.:08:16.

His mother, Leah, came first, she was single.

:08:17.:08:18.

We lived, four of us, in ond room in Notting Hill Gate.

:08:19.:08:28.

And we had no bathroom, shared a sink on the

:08:29.:08:34.

landing with everybody else, one ring gas burner in the room

:08:35.:08:39.

I think that that whole generation, by and large,

:08:40.:08:42.

of West Indian immigrants worked hard, they didn't have

:08:43.:08:45.

and they rolled their sleevds up and they got on with the hard work.

:08:46.:08:52.

but earned a living for manx years as a chef.

:08:53.:08:57.

He went on to own his own restaurants and a jazz cafe,

:08:58.:08:59.

Now a young-looking 68, Danny goes to London on Friday

:09:00.:09:05.

to receive a lifetime achievement award

:09:06.:09:09.

at the Black Film, TV and Arts Awards.

:09:10.:09:12.

I think as an immigrant from the West Indies,

:09:13.:09:18.

a lot of doors were closed to us, I mean,

:09:19.:09:21.

And receiving this award is like one of

:09:22.:09:27.

these doors being flung wide open at last.

:09:28.:09:31.

His biggest work to date is currently being displayed at

:09:32.:09:34.

Cromer Library, three big c`nvases full of life and colour.

:09:35.:09:39.

And what a life that puzzled little boy from Jam`ica

:09:40.:09:44.

Like so many from the Caribbean Danny Keen grew up

:09:45.:09:48.

and made a huge contribution to this country,

:09:49.:09:51.

now recognised in a lifetime achievement award

:09:52.:09:58.

We'll have more in breakfast from 6.30, but I'll say goodnight

:09:59.:10:02.

and leave you in the hands of Alex with the weather.

:10:03.:10:08.

Good evening. Some close gux out there and the risk of mist `nd fog

:10:09.:10:13.

patches developing as we go through the night. Some of the vote could be

:10:14.:10:17.

dense in places but not gre`t visibility out on the rates.

:10:18.:10:23.

Temperatures tonight, seven and 10 Celsius. A light south westdrly
