Hello and welcome to the Look East late news.

Shock as three teenagers are killed in a crash in Norfolk.

One union says the workers feel betrayed.

And temperatures are hotting up for the weekend. Join me later for all

the details. First, shock and sadness

in a Norfolk village tonight as three teenagers are killed

in a crash. The friends were all in the same car

late last night when they crashed on Tivetshall Road between the A140

and Pulham Market in Norfolk. The road was closed

for much of the day. This from our chief

reporter Kim Riley. Police cars were posted

on all approach roads to the crash scene as the emergency services

concentrated on two vital tasks - recovering the three bodies

from the mangled wreckage of the car and investigating how and why

the teenagers lost their lives. From a distant spot

across the fields, we could see the white forensics tent

and in their white overalls, Firefighters were using cutting

equipment to get access to the car. I would appeal to any members

of the public that may have witnessed the collision or seen

the manner of driving of the vehicle prior to the collision,

if they could contact Norfolk Constabulary serious

investigations team on 101, Our main priority today is to work

hard for the family. Our thoughts are with the family,

their loved ones and friends and communities affected

by this tragic incident. In Pulham Market, shock

at the grim overnight news. I think it was a tragic

loss of young lives and whether that was speed or just

a freak accident, An area in the Church of St John

the Baptist in Harleston has been set aside for people to grieve

and contribute to It is one of those things you do not

expect ever to happen and you hope and pray it never happens

and unfortunately it has happened and it has

happened to three families. I know at least two

of them are in this town. This evening, a private ambulance

left the scene escorted by a police car as tributes to the dead

were posted on social media. This road was finally opened up

at about six o'clock this evening, revealing here the blackened

trees behind me. That is where the car ended up

and burst into flames. The identity of the three,

let's try and confirm that, 17-year-old Kyle Warren

and 18-year-old Dominic O'Neill Basically, tonight, everyone

is saying they died too young and the police

investigations are continuing. Suffolk Police are being asked

to explain why they took no action about a woman who went missing

and was then sexually The woman - who has severe

learning difficulties - was reported missing in 2004,

but only found in a house The Police and Crime Commissioner

for Suffolk says the force has From Suffolk police this morning two

reactions- they promise they will discover whether the force fell

short and a sense of disbelief at the abuse the victim was forced to

enjoy in a property of this estate almost 500 miles from home. I am

shocked and appalled at this level of the property. I have never in all

my experience come across as barbaric as this and I use the word

barbaric properly because that is what it is. For the best part of a

decade, Keith Baker and his wife raped and assaulted the victim. It

was March 15 2004 that the woman was reported missing by the following

day came a call from what appeared to be the woman saying she was on

holiday. Eight years later the alarm holiday. Eight years later the alarm

was raised. The victim was rescued from Baker's home. He was

and sentenced to 15 years in jail. and sentenced to 15 years in jail.

His wife was given three years. This woman was so in the seated she only

had one to the left and the fact that Suffolk police's remission and

failure to properly look at her as a missing woman, the story could have

been very different. She may have experienced abuse but not on the

scale and 48 years. The investigation into how this force

handled the case is likely to be protracted. The passage of time

means the records taken needs to be retrieved from storage but the force

is adamant, once the facts are established, it will be open in

discussing them. It says the priority is making sure lessons are

learned. The father of Corrie McKeague has

told Look East he will maintain his vigil at a landfill site

until his son's body is found. The police have been searching

the site in Cambridgeshire They say they are now almost certain

he ended up in a bin lorry. Corrie, an airman based in Suffolk,

went missing after a night Every time the excavator picks up

a load and brings it out, there is every chance that that is the one

that could, could have Corrie in it. A father, who's lost his High Court

battle over term-time holidays, has called on voters to oust

the leader of Suffolk Jon Platt refused to pay a fine

imposed by the Isle of Wight council Today, after loosing his

case, he singled out Suffolk County Council,

which handed out more than 6,000 Katherine Nash is outside

the council in Ipswich now. Suffolk County Council has faced

this criticism from Jon Platt over the amount of fines issued compared

to other councils. The debate as to whether children can take on a date

during term time has rumbled on with some parents happy to face the

prospect of a find in exchange for a cheaper holiday. After Jon Platt

lost his hearing, he turned his attention to Suffolk County Council

because of the sheer amount of fines it is issuing.

Suffolk issued more penalty notices then any other county

in England, 6,000 of them, and that is unacceptable to me.

When penalty notices were introduced in 2003,

the legislation that enabled penalty notices to be issued was called

It said that this was a cheap alternative, a cheap

and speedy alternative to prosecution for truancy.

If a child's attendance is of 90%, by definition they are not truant,

What has the council said? It says it has not changed its position on

this matter since the ruling and their children should not be taken

out of school without good reason and if they are, they need to be

authorised by the headteacher. How do Suffolk compare with elsewhere?

Suffolk is ahead in terms of the number of fines it has been issuing,

6008 fines last academic year, can bet that you act six Peshmerga

Essex. The timing of this legal battle comes as some parents are

looking ahead to the summer holidays. The Supreme Court has been

clear today in terms of where it stands on this matter.

128 jobs are to go at the Norfolk turkey producer Bernard Matthews.

The company says it's part of its restructuring process.

The Unite union says workers feel betrayed.

I asked our business correspondent Richard Bond if it

Not entirely because the company warned a couple of months ago that

up to 150 jobs were at risk, so the outcome is 128, broadly

in line with what we expected, though obviously still a blow

What does this mean for Bernard Matthews as a business

because it has gone through some very tricky times, hasn't it?

We know that Bernard Matthews has been making losses

for a number of years, that it went into

It was bought out of that by Ranjit Boparan, who is the owner

of the Two Sisters group, which is Britain's biggest

I think the company basically needs clear and decisive action and it

may be getting that now from its new owner.

A decision has been made to get out of chicken production

at Great Witchingham and to concentrate on Turkey,

which obviously is at the heart of what the business does.

I think it is significant today what the union Unite had to say.

It is obviously disappointed by the number of people

losing their jobs, but it says that the company has suffered

from a lack of business strategy under its previous owners

and that it accepted as a union that difficult decisions have to be made

It is almost as if the union is crying out for the company

to have clear leadership, to get it pointed again

Finally tonight, after weeks of discussions, Stuart Webber has

been officially confirmed as the new sporting director

He joins from Huddersfield Town, who the Canaries lost

His first task will be to find Norwich a new head coach.

Coming up now the weather with Alex, but from the rest

Good evening. Some fine, spring sunshine today, but temperatures

will be warmer by the weekend with a southerly wind. We have clear spas

across some of the region but patchy cloud coming and going. Lows of two

or three Celsius so the risk of ground frost. High pressure still

right across us tomorrow, so we have some fine weather expected. A bright

start with good spells of sunshine. Cloudy at times but lots of fine

weather through the afternoon and temperatures around 14, 15 degrees,

just feeling cooler in that north-westerly breeze but staying

fine for the afternoon. We switch our winds to a southerly for the

weekend, temperatures climbing with long spells of sunshine.

to rise into the weekend. We'll see 22 Celsius on Sunday.

Hello. There was some warm sunshine around today, but it's set to get

even warmer this weekend. 18 Celsius in London this afternoon. This was

the scene in Chiswick, much quieter than it was on Sunday for the boat

race. Under the cloud for example here in Cumbria, temperatures

struggled to make double figures. Through the night we're going to

hang onto a lot of cloud across north-west England, North Wales,

Northern Ireland and western Scotland, where there will be a bit

of drizzle on the breeze. Zero skies across many southern and eastern

parts of England, together with eastern Scotland and in the

countryside again, temperatures won't be far away from freezing.

Just briefly, at the end of the night, because it will warm up in

the sunshine. That's why we have the best of the early sunshine. The

cloud will break up across Wales, the Midlands and North West England.

We may hang onto more cloud in Northern Ireland and
