Hello, I'm Tom Williams. for the team for

:00:00.:00:15.

The first privately-funded search operation for the missing airman

:00:16.:00:18.

Corrie McKeague has taken place today

:00:19.:00:20.

near to RAF Honington in Suffolk where he was based.

:00:21.:00:24.

Corrie went missing after a night out in Bury St Edmunds

:00:25.:00:26.

Today's search was paid for by the McKeague family,

:00:27.:00:31.

and was nothing to do with Suffolk Police.

:00:32.:00:33.

Corrie's mum gathered her army of volunteers together to set out

:00:34.:00:39.

in search of Corrie, a search entirely paid for by donations.

:00:40.:00:44.

The amount of people that have contacted me,

:00:45.:00:48.

hundreds of people have contacted me saying they wanted to come out

:00:49.:00:52.

and search and hundreds more have said they can't do it this time

:00:53.:00:55.

but they want to come another time and it absolutely blows me away.

:00:56.:01:00.

Today's search covered an area of 50 square miles,

:01:01.:01:04.

locations not yet searched by the police.

:01:05.:01:08.

There are around 60 people out looking for Corrie this morning

:01:09.:01:13.

and so they can cover as much ground as possible, they've now split up

:01:14.:01:16.

It's now been 12 weeks since Corrie Mckeague went missing

:01:17.:01:23.

and despite sightings on CCTV, officers are no nearer discovering

:01:24.:01:26.

So today's search is testing one theory about his disappearance.

:01:27.:01:33.

The scenario we are working out today is that he has been hit

:01:34.:01:37.

by a car, somebody has put him in a car and maybe quite genuinely

:01:38.:01:42.

thought he was injured but unfortunately it has

:01:43.:01:45.

turned out worse than that and they've dumped him somewhere.

:01:46.:01:48.

They are all areas throughout the Kings Forest that you can get

:01:49.:01:52.

to with a vehicle that you could quite easily get rid

:01:53.:01:56.

But there is no evidence to support any theory

:01:57.:02:01.

Corrie's family admit hope is fading but while there is hope,

:02:02.:02:08.

On to the football today and David McGoldrick came off

:02:09.:02:16.

the bench to score the winner for Ipswich at Wigan.

:02:17.:02:20.

McGoldrick's goal came two minutes from time.

:02:21.:02:23.

Brett Pitman scored Town's other goals to lift them to 15th

:02:24.:02:26.

Meanwhile Norwich manager Alex Neil insists he won't quit despite a 7th

:02:27.:02:31.

defeat in nine Championship games last night.

:02:32.:02:34.

Huddersfield took an early lead but Jonny Howson made it 1-1 before

:02:35.:02:38.

the visitors wrapped up the points before half-time.

:02:39.:02:40.

Neil was booed by sections of fans at the final whistle.

:02:41.:02:43.

In League One today, victory for Peterborough

:02:44.:02:47.

maintained their place in the play-offs.

:02:48.:02:48.

Hot on their heels are in-form Southend,

:02:49.:02:51.

The Blues are up to 7th are beating Oldham.

:02:52.:02:55.

Elsewhere MK Dons and Northampton were both beaten.

:02:56.:02:58.

And in League Two it'll be a merry Christmas

:02:59.:03:00.

Luton are 5th after winning at Blackpool.

:03:01.:03:06.

Cambridge, who were in the relegation zone not long ago,

:03:07.:03:09.

have roared into a play-off place after a 2-1 win over Crewe.

:03:10.:03:13.

Colchester saw off Notts County, also 2-1.

:03:14.:03:17.

On to rugby, in a couple of hours Northampton will kick off

:03:18.:03:19.

in Dublin against Leinster in the European Champions Cup,

:03:20.:03:24.

hoping to make amends after last week's thrashing.

:03:25.:03:26.

Saints lost 37-10 last Friday at home.

:03:27.:03:30.

They also lost Dylan Hartley to a six-week ban after his dismissal,

:03:31.:03:33.

so the boss is under the microscope.

:03:34.:03:35.

It's challenging, lots of pressure, lots of different

:03:36.:03:37.

And the main one is we are not winning games and that is

:03:38.:03:49.

what I have to try to address to really get those lads getting out

:03:50.:03:53.

there, improving the way that we are playing.

:03:54.:03:57.

And one result, defeat for Bedford in the British and Irish Cup.

:03:58.:04:00.

They lost to Ealing by 40 points to 23.

:04:01.:04:05.

It has been dry so far this weekend and we are expecting it to be dry

:04:06.:04:11.

Overnight we will see some fog forming.

:04:12.:04:14.

Through this evening and overnight, some patches of fog already

:04:15.:04:17.

starting to form and that fog becomes dense by the early

:04:18.:04:19.

That could make for some very tricky driving conditions first thing,

:04:20.:04:25.

so do take care if you're out and about on the roads.

:04:26.:04:28.

Fog will lift through the day, we will see a little bit

:04:29.:04:31.

On balance, it will certainly feel a little bit chillier than recently

:04:32.:04:35.

and highs of no more than 7 or 8 Celsius.

:04:36.:04:39.

Over the next couple of days, we do actually hang onto a lot

:04:40.:04:42.

of dry weather, but it always stays on the chilly side.

:04:43.:04:45.

On Sunday we see highs of 8 Celsius, on Monday highs of just 6 Celsius

:04:46.:04:49.

and as we head towards the middle of the week,

:04:50.:04:51.

we can see those night-time temperatures starting to drop

:04:52.:04:53.

OK, that's it. We're back tomorrow at 5:30pm and 11:20pm, enjoy your

:04:54.:05:04.

Saturday night, goodbye.
