:00:12. > :00:15.Appointments and planned operations due to take place tomorrow have been

:00:16. > :00:17.cancelled at two of the region's hospitals affected

:00:18. > :00:20.There'll be no surgery or clinic appointments

:00:21. > :00:23.at the James Paget in Gorleston, and Colchester Hospital has

:00:24. > :00:25.Computer systems at Broomfield in Chelmsford have also

:00:26. > :00:28.been hit by the virus, which encrypts files and demands

:00:29. > :00:41.From the outside, all appeared calm at Colchester Hospital this

:00:42. > :00:43.afternoon, but staff have been using pen and paper,

:00:44. > :00:44.and the hospital did cancel some operations.

:00:45. > :00:54.It's also asked people not to use A unless absolutely necessary.

:00:55. > :00:56.We have contingency plans for these major events,

:00:57. > :01:08.As you say, Sally, we've had to cancel some non-elective work.

:01:09. > :01:09.We will bring those patients back in a timely manner,

:01:10. > :01:17.but it's a credit to the staff and indeed to the patience

:01:18. > :01:17.of our patients that we've been able to manage this crisis

:01:18. > :01:26.Some patients we spoke to were annoyed but most

:01:27. > :01:28.If it's x-rays or breakages or what have you, they're

:01:29. > :01:31.going to send you home, but if it's only minor things

:01:32. > :01:35.But we sat in the waiting room for another 15, 20 minutes,

:01:36. > :01:38.and they came out and said "We're very sorry," and they just

:01:39. > :01:46.Basically now, patients' details can be hacked, can't they? Sold.

:01:47. > :01:47.There is no evidence at this stage that there's been any compromise

:01:48. > :01:49.of patient sensitive data so we will be looking as we recover

:01:50. > :01:52.over the weekend to be absolutely sure of that.

:01:53. > :01:54.Tonight the James Paget Hospital at Gorleston, also hit

:01:55. > :01:57.by the cyber attack, told us there will be no surgery

:01:58. > :02:00.Hospital staff are working without computers to contact

:02:01. > :02:12.patients with appointments to arrange new dates.

:02:13. > :02:15.The Health Secretary Jeremy Hunt has been at the Princess Alexandra

:02:16. > :02:18.During his visit, he promised to make the building

:02:19. > :02:30.The A department was originally designed for 60,000 people but now

:02:31. > :02:33.This from our Health Reporter, Nikki Fox.

:02:34. > :02:34.A hospital described by its previous chief executive

:02:35. > :02:38.Built in the '60s, staff even complained about raw sewage

:02:39. > :02:49.Campaigning is not allowed within the hospital,

:02:50. > :02:51.so the photocall took place outside the local chemist.

:02:52. > :02:53.There is a real need for a new hospital here.

:02:54. > :02:56.I want to make a commitment now because, you know,

:02:57. > :02:59.it depends on future funding settlements but what I'd say

:03:00. > :03:01.is that it would be a high priority for a future

:03:02. > :03:07.So, just how badly does Harlow need a new hospital?

:03:08. > :03:19.In December it was the fullest in England, up to 100 beds short.

:03:20. > :03:21.A attendances rose by 27% in five years.

:03:22. > :03:23.And the maintenance backlog, ?50 million.

:03:24. > :03:25.It's about finding the right site for the hospital,

:03:26. > :03:28.it's about getting the funding, which will need to come not just

:03:29. > :03:34.from developers but also from central government.

:03:35. > :03:36.Part of the problem is the growing population.

:03:37. > :03:41.Designed for 60,000, 85,000 now live there.

:03:42. > :03:43.It's something we pointed out here in Harlow from Ukip.

:03:44. > :03:46.If we stopped giving so much money to the EU,

:03:47. > :03:51.within a couple of weeks we would have enough money

:03:52. > :03:54.to build the new hospital that we need here in Harlow.

:03:55. > :03:57.The Green Party is keen on introducing an NHS reinstatement

:03:58. > :04:00.act, that would repeal the health and social care bill introduced

:04:01. > :04:03.in 2012 because ultimately what we think is that the NHS does

:04:04. > :04:06.need more funding, it does need support, but it doesn't need that

:04:07. > :04:11.The Liberal Democrat candidate wasn't available but the party says

:04:12. > :04:15.1p on income tax will increase the NHS budget.

:04:16. > :04:19.For the Health Secretary, no time to wait around, especially

:04:20. > :04:28.And no promises, just a pledge to look at a new hospital again.

:04:29. > :04:33.There are serious doubts tonight whether a multi-million pound

:04:34. > :04:36.project in Harwich to build a replica of the famous 16th Century

:04:37. > :04:37.ship, the Mayflower, will ever be completed.

:04:38. > :04:40.It was described as a "brilliant audacious project" by

:04:41. > :04:51.Sir Richard Branson and has been mainly funded by public money.

:04:52. > :04:54.The Harwich Mayflower Project set out to raise ?4 million

:04:55. > :04:59.Forget Plymouth - the original ship was actually built in Harwich.

:05:00. > :05:01.Local captain Christopher Jones and his crew took the pilgrims

:05:02. > :05:08.With your valued support, a traditional wooden boat-building

:05:09. > :05:18.A promotional video helped raise ?30,000 from crowdfunding.

:05:19. > :05:22.The aim - to train a new generation of wooden ship-builders in the town.

:05:23. > :05:26.But of the replica, this is all there is to see so far.

:05:27. > :05:29.The keel laid, the stern post, and just one of the ribs in place.

:05:30. > :05:32.Robert is one of a group who call themselves

:05:33. > :05:36.He and other members of his family made ?30 donations to the project.

:05:37. > :05:38.He believes the charity is misleading the public.

:05:39. > :05:44.We think they must stop living in a fantasy world and telling

:05:45. > :05:51.No building has taken place for five years.

:05:52. > :05:53.Graham Richardson is general manager of the project and he's

:05:54. > :05:58.He showed me the new visitor centre, where local school children will

:05:59. > :06:06.The once almost derelict railway station is being

:06:07. > :06:08.converted into a transport and maritime museum.

:06:09. > :06:11.He believes the site will become a major attraction but knows

:06:12. > :06:17.Funding has been difficult, I will agree, but we are

:06:18. > :06:21.We have got a bid in with the Heritage Lottery at the moment.

:06:22. > :06:24.You are still determined this ship will be built?

:06:25. > :06:25.We are. Yes, we're positive.

:06:26. > :06:27.The Charity Commission says concerns have been raised about progress,

:06:28. > :06:31.but it was satisfied with the role of the trustees.

:06:32. > :06:34.With ?1.4 million spent so far, some worry this scale model will be

:06:35. > :06:42.the only Mayflower produced at these workshops.

:06:43. > :06:45.Those are your top stories tonight but I'll leave you with the weather.

:06:46. > :06:57.Tonight it will be largely dry with some clear spells and a few

:06:58. > :07:03.scattered showers. A mild night, most stay in double figures although

:07:04. > :07:08.some spots could drop to eight Celsius. On Saturday, the day of

:07:09. > :07:15.sunny and bright spells and a few showers. Some could be on the heavy

:07:16. > :07:20.side. Temperatures could reach 21 Celsius. On Sunday this cold front

:07:21. > :07:25.rattling through, producing a few millimetres of rain overnight, but

:07:26. > :07:29.that should be gone by the morning, then another day of sunshine and

:07:30. > :07:31.showers. In a moment the national forecast but I will leave you with

:07:32. > :07:42.the outlook. A bit of a mixed bag earlier on

:07:43. > :07:48.today, some of us were cloudy with rain. This is the view from one of

:07:49. > :07:52.our weather watchers in Cornwall. But in the Highlands of Scotland, it

:07:53. > :07:57.was completely different, find, sunny and warm. The satellite and

:07:58. > :07:58.radar picture shows the variety of weather we have
