:00:00. > 3:59:59Jakonson on his novel about Donald Trump. Here on BBC One, it's time

:00:00. > :00:00.for Hello and welcome to

:00:00. > :00:00.the Look East late news. In the programme tonight: Relief

:00:00. > :00:09.as our free range poultry producers are told bird flu restrictions

:00:10. > :00:13.will be lifted on Thursday. Fire crews at full stretch

:00:14. > :00:15.after the hottest weekend of the year brings a spate

:00:16. > :00:22.of fires. I will have the Easter forecast and

:00:23. > :00:31.the weather for the week ahead. Free range poultry farmers and egg

:00:32. > :00:34.producers have welcomed the news that restrictions

:00:35. > :00:38.following the outbreak of bird flu

:00:39. > :00:41.are to be lifted. Poultry in high-risk

:00:42. > :00:42.areas, including parts have had to be housed

:00:43. > :00:54.indoors since December. In February, 20,000 chickens

:00:55. > :00:56.were culled following an outbreak Last month, a precautionary cull

:00:57. > :00:59.of 55,000 ducks took place But late this afternoon Defra

:01:00. > :01:07.announced that the restrictions For four months farmers have

:01:08. > :01:13.lived on thier nerves. The H5N8 strain of avian flu

:01:14. > :01:16.is so deadly that any poultry that The risk comes from wild birds,

:01:17. > :01:20.and with the arrival of spring many have migrated,

:01:21. > :01:22.and other wild waterfowl are now breeding, and so the biggest

:01:23. > :01:24.threat has passed. There was only one official bird flu

:01:25. > :01:27.outbreak in the region, at this farm in Redgrave,

:01:28. > :01:32.20,000 chickens were culled. Days later, ducks at a unit nearby

:01:33. > :01:37.were culled after avian flu Since then it has been quiet

:01:38. > :01:44.and so within three days poultry But Defa warn that this doesn't

:01:45. > :01:52.mean business as usual. Poultry keepers will still have

:01:53. > :01:54.to observe strict bio-security measures, and a ban on poultry

:01:55. > :02:00.gatherings and remains The risk is diminished but not gone

:02:01. > :02:04.away, and poultry producers can only hope next time

:02:05. > :02:07.round it is not as severe. Mark Gorton is the regions biggest

:02:08. > :02:09.free range poultry producer, I asked him what impact

:02:10. > :02:12.the restrictions have This is a situation that has

:02:13. > :02:23.not been of our making I think it is fair to say

:02:24. > :02:31.the general public have also supported us and continue

:02:32. > :02:35.to buy our products. Do you think Defra have dealt

:02:36. > :02:38.with this in the correct way? Because when those restrictions

:02:39. > :02:40.were first imposed there It is understandable

:02:41. > :02:50.what they have done, but of course wild birds don't

:02:51. > :02:56.recognise zones, and as far as our business is concerned,

:02:57. > :02:59.we have had the birds at farms inside the zone and outside

:03:00. > :03:01.the zones, so the decision that Defra made to create these different

:03:02. > :03:04.zones did cause a lot of confusion and misunderstanding

:03:05. > :03:05.amongst everybody. Defra has interestingly said today

:03:06. > :03:11.even though the restrictions will be lifted on Thursday this does not

:03:12. > :03:15.mean business as usual. Just because we have let the birds

:03:16. > :03:23.out or we will let the birds out, it does not mean we can relax

:03:24. > :03:26.and say that is it. You know, bird flu is a constant

:03:27. > :03:29.threat to our business and at all times we have to be

:03:30. > :03:32.vigilant of that, and so that is Are you saying that bird flu is just

:03:33. > :03:38.something the industry is now It will not go away and it

:03:39. > :03:45.will be back next year, perhaps with a different form,

:03:46. > :03:49.but it is something we're going to have to work together

:03:50. > :03:52.to come up with a plan as to how we will tackle this next year

:03:53. > :03:55.and going forward for the future. The police in Essex say

:03:56. > :04:12.they are very concerned for the welfare of a three

:04:13. > :04:15.year-old-girl who has gone missing in the area around Clacton

:04:16. > :04:18.and Jaywick Peggie Happer was last seen

:04:19. > :04:23.on the 4th of April. The police believe Peggie may not be

:04:24. > :04:27.receiving the care she needs because Lisa Douglas

:04:28. > :04:31.and James Happer are believed to be

:04:32. > :04:34.involved with drugs. The lifestyle Peggy's mum and dad

:04:35. > :04:37.lead is what leaves me We need to make sure

:04:38. > :04:41.she is receiving the care and We believe that Peggy

:04:42. > :04:44.is in the Jaywick area of Clacton-on-Sea

:04:45. > :04:46.with both her mum and her dad, and I appeal to

:04:47. > :04:52.the tight community of Jaywick

:04:53. > :04:56.to call 101 and tell us One of the region's leading fire

:04:57. > :05:03.officers is warning people to take Some of them are being

:05:04. > :05:13.treated as suspicious, but others are thought to be

:05:14. > :05:15.the result of carelessness The view from a car

:05:16. > :05:18.on this roundabout as an intense blaze took hold

:05:19. > :05:20.of the petrol station shop

:05:21. > :05:22.on Saturday morning. Last October the owner reopened

:05:23. > :05:25.after a major refurbishment, and this afternoon the damage

:05:26. > :05:30.was being assessed. By the time the Fire Service

:05:31. > :05:33.arrived the fire was well established and broke

:05:34. > :05:34.through into the roof and smoke was billowing across

:05:35. > :05:38.the A11, and the road was Five fire crews eventually

:05:39. > :05:42.brought the blaze under control, which was believed

:05:43. > :05:45.to have been caused by an electrical fault

:05:46. > :05:46.in a refrigeration unit. On Saturday night six

:05:47. > :05:48.fire crews tackled destroyed but they managed to stop

:05:49. > :05:55.the flames spreading to a nearby thatched cottage,

:05:56. > :05:57.and no I think some of the major fires

:05:58. > :06:05.in fact, and we have had three major fires

:06:06. > :06:11.over the weekend, are unconnected with

:06:12. > :06:19.However, some of our minor fires, and we had two

:06:20. > :06:20.substantial gorse fires, I

:06:21. > :06:22.think can be attributed to people getting out

:06:23. > :06:23.there and enjoying the

:06:24. > :06:25.weather and perhaps carelessly discarding smoking materials or,

:06:26. > :06:26.sadly, deliberately setting fire to some areas

:06:27. > :06:30.In Newmarket families were returning to an evacuated block

:06:31. > :06:32.of flats this morning, but only to pick up possessions.

:06:33. > :06:34.Exterior damage appeared minimal, but smoke spread

:06:35. > :06:36.between the walls to flats in the front on the building.

:06:37. > :06:39.Devastating, I've got nothing left, all the walls have been pulled down,

:06:40. > :06:41.everything is water damaged and

:06:42. > :06:47.That is my home and we have nothing left.

:06:48. > :06:52.With some flats likely to be out of bounds for weeks,

:06:53. > :07:01.It is a highly unusual set of circumstances,

:07:02. > :07:04.with no firm conclusions yet, but the cause does not

:07:05. > :07:13.People diagnosed with dementia are being helped by football.

:07:14. > :07:16.Not as a sporting activity, but as a way of recalling

:07:17. > :07:19.Norwich City Football Club is the only place in England

:07:20. > :07:23.Our Health Reporter Nikki Fox has been to Carrow Road

:07:24. > :07:28.Thousands of moments have been made on this ground over the years.

:07:29. > :07:37.One of those made by Terry Allcock in 1959 when Norwich reached

:07:38. > :07:50.Fast forward half a decade and Terry's memories are helping

:07:51. > :07:54.Run once a month and called Still On The Ball, the sessions use

:07:55. > :07:56.memorabilia and talks by former players to trigger

:07:57. > :08:02.I do get very frustrated when all of a sudden I have

:08:03. > :08:05.got a name and I think, yeah, got it, and a short

:08:06. > :08:07.time after, maybe the next day, it is gone.

:08:08. > :08:10.Once you get involved in the sort of meeting you realise the benefits.

:08:11. > :08:15.It is not just fans affected by dementia.

:08:16. > :08:23.A burly defender in the '70s, Duncan Forbes was diagnosed

:08:24. > :08:28.Now being looked after in a Norwich care home,

:08:29. > :08:35.He retired from football at 60 and we were going to travel

:08:36. > :08:40.about and go on holidays and things like that and it just stopped.

:08:41. > :08:43.When people say to me, "I went out for lunch

:08:44. > :08:47.with my husband," that gets me because I think, "I cannot do that."

:08:48. > :08:50.Both Jeannette and City legend Terry Allcock support

:08:51. > :08:59.They seem to go away in such a happy manner and they do respond,

:09:00. > :09:01.where if you speak to them one-on-one they are very

:09:02. > :09:06.Sharing stories and creating flashbacks from faces.

:09:07. > :09:09.As one of the members said, she drives there with a person

:09:10. > :09:19.with dementia, she takes home her husband.

:09:20. > :09:22.And if you want to be involved in the Still on the Ball project

:09:23. > :09:24.you can log on to the Age UK Norwich website.

:09:25. > :09:27.Coming up now the weather with Julie.

:09:28. > :09:34.But from the rest of the late team, goodnight.

:09:35. > :09:41.Still the chance of isolated shower but for most it is a dry night with

:09:42. > :09:51.clear spells and will be a chilly one. Some sports could drop closer

:09:52. > :09:58.to freezing. And we could get some ground frost, the morning. A cold

:09:59. > :10:02.start but fine and dry with some cloud and spells of sunshine. The

:10:03. > :10:09.wind picking up three moderate westerly by the afternoon. Blustery

:10:10. > :10:16.end to the day with more in the way of cloud for the evening. Wednesday,

:10:17. > :10:21.this cold front pushing down from the north and so after a fine and

:10:22. > :10:28.dry start some thicker cloud and outbreaks of mainly light and patchy

:10:29. > :10:32.rain for some. Another blustery day on Wednesday. Towards the end of the

:10:33. > :10:37.week our influenced by this weather front moving erratically towards us

:10:38. > :10:41.watch is proving a headache when it comes to working out what will

:10:42. > :10:45.happen over the Easter weekend. One or two showers and quite a lot of

:10:46. > :10:50.cloud and Good Friday will be drive from most of the day with some

:10:51. > :10:56.spells of sunshine, the rain is not expected to spread down until later

:10:57. > :11:00.on. I will leave you with the outlook for Easter weekend, and we

:11:01. > :11:04.could have some rain frosting on Saturday but that should clear truly

:11:05. > :11:04.scattered showers on Saturday, Sunday

:11:05. > :11:17.Good evening. Let's cut to the chase the first big holiday weekend of the

:11:18. > :11:21.year is on the horizon and if you consider last weekend as a taster

:11:22. > :11:25.for the summer, this weekend is not looking too bad. It will be a bit

:11:26. > :11:28.cooler, temperatures this week and closer to where they should be at

:11:29. > :11:33.this time of the year thanks to the north-west breed and the reason for

:11:34. > :11:37.that, if we look at the jet stream, coming across the Atlantic pushing

:11:38. > :11:43.from north to south -- north-west breeze. It separates the high

:11:44. > :11:47.pressure and low price and it allows the northerly airflow to develop. It

:11:48. > :11:52.means there will be some showers going into Easter weekend but they

:11:53. > :11:55.will only be a small portion of the weekend wherever you are and there

:11:56. > :11:57.will be some dry weather and when the sun is out, it is getting

:11:58. > :11:59.stronger so it will
