:00:08. > :00:12.Good evening and welcome to BBC Look North. The headlines tonight:
:00:12. > :00:21.More flood victims come forward as families are told it may be months
:00:21. > :00:26.before they can go home. �10,000 is needed just to basically get the
:00:26. > :00:30.building work done. Some of the worst broadband coverage in England.
:00:30. > :00:33.Now millions are to be spent improving internet access. A rush
:00:33. > :00:37.for the first tickets as Scunthorpe United prepare for battle against
:00:37. > :00:47.Newcastle. And a road trip with a difference. We find out how this
:00:47. > :00:51.Fourteen-year-old is driving his car across the country. And it has
:00:51. > :00:57.brightened up nicely for the end of the day, there is more sunshine
:00:57. > :01:02.tomorrow and I will have the full forecast later in the programme.
:01:02. > :01:05.Insurers will make us pay, now it's proved that Goole can flood. That's
:01:05. > :01:10.the fear of residence two weeks after heavy rain caused flooding in
:01:10. > :01:13.parts of the town. The full extent of the damage is still emerging.
:01:13. > :01:19.Fire crews received more than 130 calls in just three hours following
:01:19. > :01:24.the flash flooding. Yorkshire Water later admitted that its pumps
:01:24. > :01:28.failed. 50 properties are known to have been affected but the local
:01:28. > :01:38.council now wants to hear from everyone who's been flooded.
:01:38. > :01:43.Lindsay Smith has spent the day in Goole. A cooked breakfast and
:01:43. > :01:48.service with a smile, but it's no holiday staying in a hotel for
:01:48. > :01:52.these flood victims, they are displaced and displeased. Everyone
:01:52. > :01:59.thought it was like being on a holiday at first with the meals put
:01:59. > :02:04.in front of you but we have all had enough now and we want to go home.
:02:04. > :02:09.I would expect that Yorkshire Water should and would give us
:02:10. > :02:12.compensation. It's almost a fortnight since two weeks of rain
:02:12. > :02:15.fell in one afternoon in Goole. 20 properties were initially damaged.
:02:15. > :02:23.Yorkshire Water admitted three of its pumps failed at the Car Lane
:02:23. > :02:28.Pumping Station. The pumping operation did continue, we had
:02:28. > :02:33.emergency pumps but they were down for a 45 minutes. Surely these
:02:33. > :02:39.pumps are not good enough if they can go down? We have put everything
:02:39. > :02:47.right. That's little comfort to the Taylor family. With two children,
:02:47. > :02:54.they decided to stay in the house until it's repaired. It is going to
:02:54. > :03:04.run into �10,000 to get this repaired. Some members of the
:03:04. > :03:09.family are grateful the important things were saved. He was under the
:03:09. > :03:18.risk of drowning and then he would die. We had to lift his hutch up to
:03:18. > :03:28.there. Water was knee deep in the cellar of the Viking pub. Although
:03:28. > :03:38.
:03:38. > :03:43.the beer is flowing again, there are still concerns. More people are
:03:43. > :03:47.now coming forward to found secondary flooding, water beneath
:03:47. > :03:56.the floorboards, it may be some time before we know the full
:03:56. > :04:04.effects of the floods. Joining me in the studio is the Conservative
:04:04. > :04:09.MP for Brigg & Goole. You have met the agencies looking into what has
:04:09. > :04:17.happened, what are the priorities? They have to establish what has
:04:17. > :04:20.happened. They have now initiated an investigation. Yorkshire Water
:04:20. > :04:27.are co-operating with that trying to establish what happened and how
:04:27. > :04:31.we can avoid this happening again. The first report will not be ready
:04:31. > :04:36.until November, is there anything that can be done short term to make
:04:36. > :04:42.sure they are more prepared? have got to have some short time
:04:42. > :04:44.measures, Yorkshire Water have already changed some of the
:04:44. > :04:49.programming of the pumps at the Car Lane Pumping Station so that they
:04:50. > :04:56.will not switch off in the same circumstances again. Really, that
:04:56. > :05:00.is not much comfort to local people who are watching the programme now.
:05:00. > :05:06.I did not think their comments were helpful in the slightest but we
:05:06. > :05:12.have got to establish what happened. Seeing that we would flood again is
:05:12. > :05:17.not good enough, we have got to be sure we are careful with our words.
:05:17. > :05:23.But the actually set that. We do not know why the pumping station
:05:23. > :05:33.was not working, that is what we have got to establish. Four years
:05:33. > :05:43.ago they said it was a one thin 100 geer event. -- and once in 100 deer
:05:43. > :05:44.
:05:44. > :05:49.event. We do not expect it again. We are looking into the reasons why
:05:49. > :05:53.this happened. There have been improvements since 2007, a lot of
:05:53. > :05:57.residents have reported very good relationships with their insurers.
:05:57. > :06:02.There are always good and bad examples and if anybody is having
:06:02. > :06:12.problems they must get in touch with me or the council and they
:06:12. > :06:14.
:06:14. > :06:19.will do what we can. Get in touch with me if you are affected. If you
:06:19. > :06:29.are in pool and you have a story get in touch in the usual ways. --
:06:29. > :06:44.
:06:44. > :06:51.In a moment, the new beer being brewed by women, four women, in
:06:51. > :06:58.Lincolnshire. Talks have been held to find out why student nurses were
:06:58. > :07:03.withdrawn from the Pilgrim Hospital in Boston. Last week students were
:07:03. > :07:10.told to leave the hospital because of serious concerns over training.
:07:10. > :07:16.The Trust in charge said it did not know the concerns that caused this
:07:16. > :07:20.and there are fears it has affected staff morale. It is deeply
:07:20. > :07:26.unsettling, if that happens in your workplace you want to know what the
:07:26. > :07:34.problem is. The fact it has gone on for so long without any further
:07:34. > :07:38.explanation means that things have declined in the meantime. We're
:07:38. > :07:43.expecting a whole new wave of students in September, I cannot
:07:43. > :07:46.imagine that will happen in the current circumstances. That is a
:07:46. > :07:54.whole new bunch of people who are wondering what will happen to their
:07:54. > :07:58.training and their couriers. Money will be spent improving broadband
:07:58. > :08:03.connection in Lincolnshire. The county has some of the worst
:08:03. > :08:10.broadband coverage in England which, according to many businesses, bits
:08:10. > :08:15.Lincolnshire at a disadvantage to other parts of the UK. High-speed
:08:15. > :08:20.broadband is no longer seen as a luxury in many homes and workplaces.
:08:20. > :08:25.But in some media's, it is sadly lacking. This Lincolnshire
:08:25. > :08:31.transport firm has been struggling with sluggish internet access for
:08:31. > :08:38.years. It is like a blocked pipe. Any business like ours, a logistics
:08:38. > :08:41.business, or any rural business competing with businesses in town
:08:41. > :08:51.on in an industrial area and at a disadvantage because of the broad
:08:51. > :08:57.
:08:57. > :09:07.bands we'd -- Rob and speed. These people used homing pigeons to
:09:07. > :09:10.
:09:10. > :09:14.transport a desk which was quicker than using the internet. If we take
:09:14. > :09:17.�40 million and we looked at encouraging big IT companies to
:09:17. > :09:21.allocate their money to it plus be put some money in from local
:09:21. > :09:25.Government, together we start to build up a significant amount of
:09:25. > :09:31.money that really should help us to make a difference to broadband
:09:31. > :09:34.speeds across the county. A new generation of hi-tech firms based
:09:35. > :09:42.in Lincolnshire and East Yorkshire are hoping to benefit from the
:09:42. > :09:47.extra funding. The rat initiatives going on with the smaller villages
:09:47. > :09:57.and initiatives like ours where recover wide area as while asleep.
:09:57. > :10:01.
:10:01. > :10:06.Not one solution will fit all the problems. For the time being, many
:10:06. > :10:14.computer users in the rural parts must pay -- play a patient waiting
:10:14. > :10:21.game. What you think about broadband? If you have a comment on
:10:21. > :10:24.that you can get in touch. Rail commuters in East Yorkshire and
:10:24. > :10:27.Lincolnshire are facing the rail fare increases of an average 8%
:10:28. > :10:35.next year. It will mean an annual season ticket from Hull to Leeds
:10:35. > :10:42.will go up by �281 to �3,801. A season ticket from Lincoln to
:10:42. > :10:48.Skegness will rise by �203 to �2,747. For commuters travelling
:10:48. > :10:58.from Hull to London, their season ticket will cost �968 more. They'll
:10:58. > :11:00.
:11:00. > :11:04.be paying for �13,080 a year. 200 workers at an East Yorkshire
:11:04. > :11:08.Building manufacturer have been told their jobs could be saved if a
:11:08. > :11:13.buyer is found for business. Staff were sent home yesterday after this
:11:13. > :11:21.company ran out of money. The ministers say they are confident a
:11:21. > :11:24.buyer can be found for Britspace and redundancies avoided. We are
:11:24. > :11:29.going through things with interested parties to show them
:11:29. > :11:34.what potentially they could buy. We have invited them to come down and
:11:34. > :11:40.visit us, you will chat them through it and be will be pushing
:11:40. > :11:44.hard on expressions of interest over the next few days. I rely on
:11:44. > :11:48.that job to keep us going, to pay for our house and our bells.
:11:48. > :11:53.Without that job I will have nothing coming in to do that so it
:11:53. > :11:56.will be very hard. An investigation in Thailand into the deaths of two
:11:56. > :11:58.Lincolnshire tourists suggests they were most likely poisoned by an
:11:58. > :12:01.unidentified toxin. George and Eileen Everitt from Boston were
:12:01. > :12:04.among five people visiting the northern city of Chiang Mai who
:12:04. > :12:07.died earlier this year. The Thai government says it hasn't found the
:12:07. > :12:17.exact cause of the deaths but it would tighten regulations on anti-
:12:17. > :12:24.
:12:24. > :12:28.mosquito sprays. Thank you for watching tonight's programme. Later
:12:28. > :12:34.we will find out where this Fourteen-year-old is going in his
:12:34. > :12:44.toy car. And join me to find out why you may need to retune your TV
:12:44. > :12:46.
:12:46. > :12:55.to get this programme and others Tonight's photograph is taken from
:12:55. > :13:02.a viewer. Waltham Windmill near Grimsby, by Phil Ramsden. Good
:13:02. > :13:08.evening, Lisa. I shall put you at ease and hide
:13:08. > :13:15.the papers. A viewer said she saw Peter in the last of the Summer
:13:15. > :13:24.Wine. If he would like acting lessons I can offer them. I cannot
:13:24. > :13:34.argue with that. It was pathetic. It has turned out quite nice to end
:13:34. > :13:36.
:13:36. > :13:43.the day. A lovely day tomorrow. Dry Weather systems are staying away
:13:43. > :13:48.from us, a lovely day. Cloud increasing later. We are ending the
:13:48. > :13:53.day with sunshine but the risk of catching isolated shower has, for
:13:53. > :14:03.most of us it will be dry. It will stay dry with clear skies. It will
:14:03. > :14:04.
:14:04. > :14:14.be cooler than last night. Temperatures down to 10 or 11.
:14:14. > :14:18.
:14:18. > :14:23.Looking at the sun times. The high Tomorrow, a caller start, a
:14:23. > :14:28.beautiful start, clear blue skies and plenty of sunshine. It will
:14:28. > :14:35.stay dry in the afternoon, cloud starting to increase and a general
:14:35. > :14:44.increase across Lincolnshire later in the afternoon. Still a fine day.
:14:44. > :14:49.Coolest on the coast because of an onshore breeze. 19 or 20 degrees.
:14:49. > :14:56.Thursday it will be Chambery, sunny spells in the morning and scattered
:14:56. > :15:02.showers. The risk the showers could merge into longer spells of rain.
:15:02. > :15:06.We're not sure where the rain will be but hopefully it could be sunny
:15:06. > :15:16.spells and scattered showers. The sunshine returns on Friday.
:15:16. > :15:17.
:15:17. > :15:21.Temperatures around 20 degrees. acting treat you missed, Lisa. See
:15:21. > :15:23.you tomorrow. There's been a rush for the first
:15:23. > :15:26.tickets available for Scunthorpe United's League Cup tie against
:15:26. > :15:29.Newcastle next week. The Premier League side visit Glanford Park
:15:29. > :15:39.next week and as our sports reporter Simon Clark explains, it
:15:39. > :15:40.
:15:40. > :15:45.They were queuing out of the door as season ticket-holders waited to
:15:45. > :15:50.claim the seats for the tie against Newcastle. A Thursday fixture does
:15:50. > :15:55.not seem to have dampened enthusiasm. I was here last time we
:15:55. > :16:01.played them at home and beat them. I am looking forward to it. We hope
:16:01. > :16:08.we can beat them like last time. beat them last time. This is how. A
:16:08. > :16:14.championship game which Scunthorpe United claimed a victory in. United
:16:14. > :16:19.are no strangers to big-name Cup opponents. They have played Chelsea,
:16:19. > :16:25.Manchester City, three times and also in 2010 Manchester United.
:16:25. > :16:29.They lost them all. Asked the Scunthorpe boss and he will tell
:16:29. > :16:34.you the game against Oldham and the three points at stake are more
:16:34. > :16:39.important than the game against Newcastle. From the fans' point of
:16:39. > :16:44.view, it gives you a beast playing a Premier League side, especially
:16:44. > :16:49.after you have suffered a season or relegation. Last year we played
:16:49. > :16:53.fantastic teams and great opposition. Some of big-name clubs.
:16:53. > :16:59.This year, we are further down the pecking order. Playing Newcastle
:16:59. > :17:02.gives everyone a lift. As they there'd be ground, the first league
:17:03. > :17:06.win is vital but the victory against Newcastle would put a gloss
:17:06. > :17:09.on it. And there'll be commentary of
:17:09. > :17:12.United's game against Oldham Athletic on medium wave while on FM
:17:12. > :17:20.it's Hull City's derby visit to Leeds United at Elland Road, and
:17:20. > :17:24.Meanwhile you can keep across Grimsby Town's progress at
:17:24. > :17:29.Braintree tonight on DAB and the web. And Lincoln City play
:17:29. > :17:39.Kidderminster Harriers. The BBC Lincolnshire team are on air from 7
:17:39. > :17:42.with all the build up. Kick off is I will be asking questions later!
:17:42. > :17:44.Thanks for your response to our story about Boston Borough Council
:17:44. > :17:48.launching a 'name and shame' campaign to try and combat
:17:49. > :17:52.littering. The authority has teamed up with the local newspaper, and
:17:52. > :18:00.will soon be putting the faces of those caught on camera on the front
:18:00. > :18:03.page. Many of you got in touch on this one. Miss Cooper texted from
:18:03. > :18:09.Grimsby: Using cameras to catch people dropping litter is a step
:18:09. > :18:12.too far and a waste of resources. Get your act together councils.
:18:12. > :18:15.Deborah in Boston tweeted: Watch this space to see whether Boston's
:18:15. > :18:21.CCTV plan actually makes a difference to us residents plagued
:18:21. > :18:24.daily by litter. And finally June in Burstwick texted: l think that
:18:24. > :18:28.it is not just people who litter who should be named and shamed, but
:18:28. > :18:38.also dog owners who think it's ok to let their dogs foul and then
:18:38. > :18:41.
:18:41. > :18:45.leave it. That opens another can of worms! Thank you for those.
:18:45. > :18:50.Tonight's last Look North is the one you can watch on analogue. The
:18:50. > :18:55.area is going digital. Hopefully you already know that. You need to
:18:55. > :19:00.be watching us digitally and even if you have switched to a digital
:19:00. > :19:10.system, you will still have to do retuning to arrive. Crispin we
:19:10. > :19:11.
:19:11. > :19:16.explain all. This is a bit of a landmark moment. Very much at the
:19:16. > :19:20.end of an era. It is freaky to see yourself played across so many
:19:20. > :19:22.tepees. Not just a change of channel, but the end of an era.
:19:22. > :19:25.Tonight sees analogue services across East Yorkshire and
:19:25. > :19:32.Lincolnshire go for good and that's because they're making way for new
:19:32. > :19:38.high powered digital transmitters, more channels, and a better picture.
:19:38. > :19:47.Even if you have digital ready TB, you will have to retune some time
:19:47. > :19:52.tomorrow afternoon. The end of an era. Tonight sees analogue services
:19:52. > :19:58.across the area go for good. They are making way for a new high-
:19:58. > :20:06.powered digital service more channels and a better picture.
:20:06. > :20:12.have to do a full retuning because you will find the not BBC channels
:20:12. > :20:18.will have disappeared. If you are struggling, there is an advice line
:20:18. > :20:24.number and also if you are eligible for help, you can still get help.
:20:24. > :20:29.We can converge or TV's. The BBC's services have a new higher power.
:20:29. > :20:34.The remainder of the services are low-powered. Tonight, the remainder
:20:34. > :20:37.of the analogue and low powered Freeview is switched off and the
:20:37. > :20:41.high-powered service starts. That is the reason for asking everyone
:20:41. > :20:45.to retune. If you've got satellite or cable, then just sit back and
:20:45. > :20:49.relax. But if you haven't got a digibox or a digital ready TV then
:20:49. > :20:52.as they say, "now's the time". One man, who's left it to the last
:20:52. > :20:55.minute in Spalding is William Bates. A late convert to digital, he's
:20:55. > :21:04.discovered some of the new channels, and should get more when he retunes
:21:04. > :21:10.tomorrow afternoon. We are pleased with what we get. We get extras,
:21:10. > :21:13.BBC Three, BBC Four, CBBC, BBC Parliament. But if you're still
:21:13. > :21:16.unsure what to do, then tomorrow and Thursday there's help available
:21:16. > :21:19.at roadshows in most of our major town's and cities. Hopefully though
:21:19. > :21:28.it should be as simple as grabbing your digital remote and just
:21:28. > :21:38.remembering to retune. And just to tell you the number for
:21:38. > :21:47.
:21:47. > :21:51.Those are the details you need if you're not sure. Technically,
:21:51. > :21:59.tonight is the last ever broadcast after all those years on analogue
:21:59. > :22:03.Just to rub it in! At least I have not got a soft toy on top of my TV.
:22:03. > :22:08.Now when it comes to beer it's safe to say men are traditionally more
:22:08. > :22:10.likely to drink it than women. But a new beer has been launched in a
:22:11. > :22:13.Lincolnshire town which is targeting both the male and female
:22:14. > :22:19.market. Grantham is also now home to two breweries owned and managed
:22:19. > :22:22.by women. Phil Connell reports. It is a world long dominated by men.
:22:22. > :22:29.But at Brewster's Brewery in Grantham, Sara Barton is changing
:22:29. > :22:35.some old preconceptions. Have a little sniff. They are really
:22:35. > :22:44.fruity. The name for a female brewer is a brewster and here in
:22:44. > :22:48.Grantham, beer is being made by On the other side of town, Kathy
:22:48. > :22:54.Britton runs the Oldershaw Brewery. So what is it about Grantham, beer
:22:54. > :22:58.and women? If you go back to medieval times, it is something
:22:58. > :23:02.women did as part of the daily chores. They made the bread and the
:23:02. > :23:11.beer as a side product, which was the safest thing to drink in those
:23:11. > :23:16.days. The female palate is different. It is less sensitive to
:23:16. > :23:22.the astringent flavours. We may prefer those beers but that's not
:23:22. > :23:25.true for everyone. A group called Project Venus was started in
:23:25. > :23:28.Grantham this year to promote beer amongst women. This week they have
:23:28. > :23:32.launched a brand new beer, one it is hoped will appeal to women as
:23:32. > :23:35.much as to men. They have to come up with new thinking and new ideas.
:23:35. > :23:42.As a consequence of that, there have been some fantastic new beers
:23:42. > :23:50.by women which male brewers might not have come up with. Ironically,
:23:50. > :23:53.tonight, the beer launch is being held here in a wine bar. 8 the
:23:53. > :23:56.venue where beer is not normally popular. Can female drinkers here
:23:56. > :24:00.be persuaded? Hops or grapes? Different drinks for different
:24:00. > :24:05.palates. I think it is fantastic. Everyone seems to associate beer-
:24:05. > :24:13.drinking with men. I think ladies have been drinking it for a long
:24:13. > :24:16.time. Men keep suppressing us! So is a quiet revolution taking place
:24:17. > :24:26.in Grantham, a town fast being remembered not just for its beer
