:00:00. > :00:00.power cuts to thousands of homes. Now we can join the news teams where
:00:00. > :00:10.you are. Good evening and welcome to BBC Look
:00:11. > :00:13.North. The headlines tonight. Passengers are stranded as rail
:00:14. > :00:22.services are disrupted by the storm that's surged across Britain. They
:00:23. > :00:27.have set that buses will be laid on but I will believe that when I see
:00:28. > :00:30.it. Hopefully we will get to King's Cross. There's revolt against
:00:31. > :00:38.cameras as motorists say new speed restrictions make this road more
:00:39. > :00:41.dangerous. It was billed as a through road to keep the traffic
:00:42. > :00:45.flowing. Fans from halfway across the world come to Hull for the Rugby
:00:46. > :00:55.League World Cup. Is the Strictly bug doing strange things to people
:00:56. > :00:57.in Grimsby? I will be back later in the programme with your full
:00:58. > :01:08.forecast for the week ahead. Rail services to and from London
:01:09. > :01:11.cancelled. Surface water on the roads made driving hazardous and
:01:12. > :01:15.heavy rain brought the threat of flooding to homes. The storm
:01:16. > :01:19.disruption wasn't as severe as further South but it was certainly
:01:20. > :01:23.one Monday morning that many will want to forget. Tonight there's
:01:24. > :01:27.still no indication of when train services on the East Coast mainline
:01:28. > :01:30.will be back to normal. But East Yorkshire and Lincolnshire DID
:01:31. > :01:39.escape the worst of the damage as Simon Spark reports. The storm
:01:40. > :01:44.battered the South has predicted that the most significant disruption
:01:45. > :01:51.from the storm here was the knock`on effects to travel. Commuters from
:01:52. > :01:56.Grantham saw cancellation after cancellation for anyone trying to
:01:57. > :02:01.head south. Might train has been cancelled. I will be late for work.
:02:02. > :02:10.I have been told it would be hours before trains get down to London. My
:02:11. > :02:23.husband is going to give me a lift. In whole, there was expected delay.
:02:24. > :02:31.They have half said that there will be buses laid on but I will believe
:02:32. > :02:41.it when I see it. It affected mainline stations including Hull,
:02:42. > :02:55.Grantham and Peterborough. We have had trains that have failed as they
:02:56. > :02:59.have travelled down. Many coming from London were stranded. A limited
:03:00. > :03:03.service did begin again late in the afternoon. In Skegness, those came
:03:04. > :03:10.as close as it gets to being flooded. It was raining hard and I
:03:11. > :03:14.kept watching and looking. Then it was coming over there and it was
:03:15. > :03:23.coming out here and flooding all of this up. I started panicking because
:03:24. > :03:28.it has been in before. For emergency services staff in Lincoln were they
:03:29. > :03:33.had a relatively quiet night. We have been prepared for anything.
:03:34. > :03:38.Fortunately the storm has tracked elsewhere. We may have got off
:03:39. > :03:45.lightly but it has little been a day of delay and disruption for many
:03:46. > :03:48.rail travellers. What is the latest picture on the trains? Well Peter we
:03:49. > :03:51.mentioned there that a limited service has resumed between
:03:52. > :03:56.Peterborough and Kings Cross but the advise remains not to travel by
:03:57. > :04:01.train tonight if you can. Long delays are still expected throughout
:04:02. > :04:05.the evening. They've obviously had a huge amount of work to do to clear
:04:06. > :04:08.the tracks and repair power lines and while that work was ongoing
:04:09. > :04:11.scenes like this at York Station, where no trains were arriving or
:04:12. > :04:14.departing, were typical across the country today The advise again is to
:04:15. > :04:22.travel tomorrow where tickets from today will still be valid.
:04:23. > :04:28.The start of a new direct air link to Denmark from Humberside Airport
:04:29. > :04:32.has tonight become another victim of the storm. The first flight has been
:04:33. > :04:37.cancelled due to bad weather in Copenhagen. The flights operated by
:04:38. > :04:40.SAS airlines are being seen as another sign of the growing business
:04:41. > :04:45.links between Scandinavia and the Humber. Anne Marie Tasker is at the
:04:46. > :04:53.airport for us tonight, so Anne Marie how significant is this new
:04:54. > :04:57.service? You can tell from the volume of people here tonight, there
:04:58. > :05:06.is 100 people on here for the launch. The guest of honour hasn't
:05:07. > :05:13.arrived. The first plane from Scandinavia, the bad weather has
:05:14. > :05:16.moved across to Denmark. There are hundreds of flights in the coming
:05:17. > :05:21.months and the businesses here hope it will build strong links between
:05:22. > :05:24.the two regions. Danbrit have been operating out of Goole for almost 30
:05:25. > :05:27.years transporting cargo across the UK and Europe. They know plenty
:05:28. > :05:31.about Denmark. It's where the company's founder Peter Aarosin is
:05:32. > :05:38.from. He says these new flights will make it easier to get customers
:05:39. > :05:43.there. That is where the real difference will be made. We can talk
:05:44. > :05:46.to our Scandinavian customers and bring them across to the area, we
:05:47. > :05:53.can show them exactly what we have to offer, with them able to get the
:05:54. > :05:56.`` get here very easily. And it's hoped it could encourage future
:05:57. > :06:00.business too. Denmark is a hub for green energy. It's the home of Dong
:06:01. > :06:03.Energy who are building a huge wind farm off the East Yorkshire coast.
:06:04. > :06:06.And it's where Siemens build turbines. It's hoped these new
:06:07. > :06:16.flights will allow stronger links with that industry. It shows that
:06:17. > :06:20.other organisations are recognising the activity that is going off in
:06:21. > :06:27.this area for the renewables sector. The Scandinavians are taking us
:06:28. > :06:31.seriously and what a direct link. SAS will fly in and out of
:06:32. > :06:43.Humberside Airport five times a week. It gives us great job security
:06:44. > :06:47.and provides a lot of service industries within the area, another
:06:48. > :06:52.reason to do business with us and it will drive extra traffic through the
:06:53. > :06:55.airport and they will look to spend money in the local area. SAS fly
:06:56. > :06:58.into just six UK airports. Humberside will be the seventh. The
:06:59. > :07:07.airport hopes it will help business with Scandinavia take off.
:07:08. > :07:11.It looks like that may be the case. Earlier I spoke to a representative
:07:12. > :07:15.from Scandinavia Airways and he said they had spent a year researching
:07:16. > :07:20.this route because companies in Denmark were asking to come to this
:07:21. > :07:22.region. The people in this room here tonight are certainly hoping they
:07:23. > :07:25.will come. Hundreds of motorists in Grimsby
:07:26. > :07:29.have signed a petition calling for average speed cameras only switched
:07:30. > :07:32.on this month to be scrapped. North East Lincolnshire Council says the
:07:33. > :07:36.cameras, on the 30 miles per hour Peaks Parkway, increase safety. But
:07:37. > :07:40.some drivers claim they've made surrounding roads more dangerous,
:07:41. > :07:46.and say the speed limit should be higher.
:07:47. > :08:03.Average speed cameras work using automatic number plate recognition.
:08:04. > :08:11.Some drivers have been inundated with tickets. Jason Davis got three
:08:12. > :08:17.in as many days and said the road was designed for faster travel. It
:08:18. > :08:20.is not a high risk road. There is not pedestrians and kids running
:08:21. > :08:26.around, balls flying across the road. It was built as a through road
:08:27. > :08:38.to keep the traffic flowing. I don't think that happens now. They work
:08:39. > :08:44.using recognition. A computer works out if the cars that passed between
:08:45. > :08:49.`` if the cars passed between the two cameras too quickly. It is a
:08:50. > :08:54.direct route in and out of Grimsby. There are no footpaths and there are
:08:55. > :09:01.crash barriers behind the wall. These cameras and force a 30 mile an
:09:02. > :09:04.hour speed limit. In contrast, this is a residential street. There are
:09:05. > :09:26.houses, driveways and footpaths. There's even a school in the, the ``
:09:27. > :09:29.yet this is a 40 mile an hour road. Hundreds of names have now been
:09:30. > :09:33.added to a petition calling for the cameras to be scrapped and the speed
:09:34. > :09:36.limit increased as was proposed by North East Lincolnshire Council in a
:09:37. > :09:39.2009 study. A local Councillor agrees. Today the council says the
:09:40. > :09:46.cameras have been installed in partnership with Safer Roads Humber
:09:47. > :09:49.after a number of casualties. If there is an accident and somebody
:09:50. > :09:57.gets killed, it will be their responsibility. Why because there is
:09:58. > :10:03.cameras there, is it an issue? It has always been 30 mph. The cameras
:10:04. > :10:08.are there for a reason to make sure people stick to the speed limits and
:10:09. > :10:16.to make Peaks Parkway a safe stretch of road. They hope to present the
:10:17. > :10:26.councillors with their petition by the end of the year.
:10:27. > :10:29.First, Sean Corker from the Association of British Drivers and
:10:30. > :10:38.asked him if the drivers in Grimsby had a point? They have a very good
:10:39. > :10:44.point. It is not right that the everyday actions of people should be
:10:45. > :10:47.criminalised. Clearly the road limit has been set at an inappropriate
:10:48. > :10:54.level and now the council are intent in enforcing that. You say you don't
:10:55. > :10:59.have a problem with enforcement of the speed limit and this is all it
:11:00. > :11:01.is. I have a problem with the enforcement of the wrong speed limit
:11:02. > :11:08.which clearly drivers have been saying that this is. It is a main
:11:09. > :11:13.thoroughfare into Grimsby with very little chance of coming into contact
:11:14. > :11:19.with other types of road users. A 40 mile an hour limit is probably more
:11:20. > :11:23.appropriate. The council says they are needed because of a high number
:11:24. > :11:28.of accidents. This will stop when people can't speed. The council
:11:29. > :11:30.hasn't said what has caused this will stop when people can't speed.
:11:31. > :11:33.The council hasn't said what has caused these accidents. This will
:11:34. > :11:35.stop when people can't speed. The council hasn't said what has caused
:11:36. > :11:43.this accident is. Normally we find less than 7% of accidents are caused
:11:44. > :11:46.by exceeding the speed limit. These are exasperated by artificially low
:11:47. > :11:51.speed limits. So you think this big emitters wrong and should be
:11:52. > :11:58.higher? If people are breaking this speed limit, the chances are that
:11:59. > :12:04.the speed limit is wrong. Labelling them as speeders is inappropriate.
:12:05. > :12:12.They are ordinary people wanting to get to work. They are not `` they
:12:13. > :12:17.are ordinary people. There are accidents and people are getting
:12:18. > :12:21.injured. It depends on what is causing those accidents. A lot of
:12:22. > :12:26.the time, it is not speed that is causing accidents. It has to be
:12:27. > :12:36.analysed and it is something the council have not been forthcoming
:12:37. > :12:39.with. His argument is radical. Do you welcome the introduction of the
:12:40. > :12:48.average speed cameras to keep the roads safe? Do you think they are
:12:49. > :12:51.right. Should they be increased from 30 to 40. Do you use the Peaks
:12:52. > :13:16.Parkway? More than ?1 million will be spent
:13:17. > :13:21.on new street lighting in Hull City Centre to cut council energy costs.
:13:22. > :13:24.The move from sodium to cheaper, longer`lasting, white LEDs like
:13:25. > :13:30.these is against a national trend for turning street lights off. The
:13:31. > :13:40.council says adopting the new technology will also help guard
:13:41. > :13:44.against crime. Saving money by reducing the electricity by having
:13:45. > :13:48.more efficient lamps is a more efficient way forward. There is the
:13:49. > :13:53.added benefit that the lights will produce much better lighting for
:13:54. > :13:57.CCTV images and the like. The quality of light will be better and
:13:58. > :14:01.there will be a cheaper cost. Money from the government will be
:14:02. > :14:04.used to expand a Lincolnshire power station. The company Siemens has won
:14:05. > :14:08.the contract to extend the site at West Marsh Road in Spalding. It's
:14:09. > :14:11.hoped it will be up and running by 2018.
:14:12. > :14:15.A silent movie is to be projected onto the side of the Deep in Hull
:14:16. > :14:18.this week telling the story of a sculpture made in the city that is
:14:19. > :14:21.to greet passengers at Heathrow's new terminal. Slipstream will be the
:14:22. > :14:29.longest permanent structure in Europe when it takes up residence at
:14:30. > :14:32.the airport. It's been created using precision engineering by a Hull
:14:33. > :14:36.company. The film telling the story of how it was made will be projected
:14:37. > :14:40.onto the Deep from Thursday evening for three nights. It's part of
:14:41. > :14:43.Hull's bid to become a city of culture.
:14:44. > :14:52.Still ahead tonight: Hull plays host to a bruising Rugby League World Cup
:14:53. > :14:55.encounter. How the Strictly Bug is doing
:14:56. > :15:06.strange things to the people of Grimsby.
:15:07. > :15:24.Keep your photos coming in. This is a photo of Bridlington beach. His
:15:25. > :15:31.Lordship is on holiday. Every night last week, I heard from the Keeley
:15:32. > :15:38.Donovan fan club. Every night, you always looked radiant. What are you
:15:39. > :15:45.after? Look at this. How did you get that?
:15:46. > :15:50.A journalist doesn't ruin `` reveal his sources.
:15:51. > :15:58.I will be finding a better picture of you, Peter. We have a mixed bag
:15:59. > :16:04.of sunny spells and there will be a few blustery showers being blown
:16:05. > :16:08.through. Many places will avoid them and stay dry. It is Wednesday that
:16:09. > :16:12.we will see the next area of low pressure sweeping in from the
:16:13. > :16:17.Atlantique bringing a spell of wet and windy weather. You can see that
:16:18. > :16:20.storm that tracked across as during the day bringing disruption to parts
:16:21. > :16:32.of the south`east. We now have winds of up to 80 miles an hour over parts
:16:33. > :16:34.of Denmark. It will be dry with clear spells tonight and
:16:35. > :16:39.temperatures will drop back to single fingers `` single figures.
:16:40. > :16:53.The sun will rise in the morning. Tomorrow morning, we start the day
:16:54. > :16:58.with one or two showers. As we go through the course of the day, there
:16:59. > :17:01.will be the risk of showers. It is very hit and miss and many places
:17:02. > :17:10.will stay dry. There will be some decent spells of sunshine. Tomorrow,
:17:11. > :17:21.it will be cooler than today. They will be around 10 Celsius. Looking
:17:22. > :17:26.further ahead, a frosty start of the day on Wednesday and fine for a good
:17:27. > :17:30.deal of the day. It will cloud over from the West with outbreaks of rain
:17:31. > :17:32.spreading eastwards. We have wet and windy weather into Thursday. There
:17:33. > :17:51.could be more cloud around. There was no make`up up a
:17:52. > :17:56.photograph. That was worrying me. I will be watching my back.
:17:57. > :17:59.We have seen today how the weather has been making the headlines. Well
:18:00. > :18:02.although Paul is off this week, he's been investigating how the weather
:18:03. > :18:05.in the future could really change. On tonight's Inside Out Paul speaks
:18:06. > :18:08.to scientists about recent research which shows that North Western
:18:09. > :18:18.Europe, including the UK, could be heading towards a mini Ice Age. I
:18:19. > :18:22.asked him about the research. What have you found in this
:18:23. > :18:30.investigation? Solar activity is increasing. The sun is in its
:18:31. > :18:37.weakest state for over 100 years. It is thought that in the past, during
:18:38. > :18:42.a period through the 1600s, in the early 1800s, very low solar activity
:18:43. > :18:49.went hand`in`hand with harsh winters and poor summers. Professor Lockwood
:18:50. > :18:53.actually told me that the decline in solar activity, the activity on the
:18:54. > :18:58.sun that is so crucial is falling at a rate not seen in 10,000 years of
:18:59. > :19:03.records. What would that mean to our winters? It doesn't mean every
:19:04. > :19:07.winter will be harsh and every summer will be poor, in general,
:19:08. > :19:12.harsh winters will become more frequent. We will see pictures of
:19:13. > :19:19.the wind of 62. It was the coldest winter of the last century and it
:19:20. > :19:23.went on for three months. The implications are quite profound. Are
:19:24. > :19:32.we talking about soon or is it a long way off? The last seven years,
:19:33. > :19:38.winters have been getting colder and he thinks we are on a slippery slope
:19:39. > :19:44.that over the coming decades, we are reverting back to a climate we saw
:19:45. > :19:51.in the 1600s. Wind turbines are built based on milder and wetter
:19:52. > :19:55.winters, winters will be lest `` less windy and the transport
:19:56. > :20:01.infrastructure would become under enormous strain.
:20:02. > :20:04.And you can read more about Paul's findings in his blog which you can
:20:05. > :20:08.find at bbc.co.uk/blogs/paulhudson and Paul's full report will be on
:20:09. > :20:16.Inside Out on BBC One at 7.30 this evening. 7,500 rugby league fans
:20:17. > :20:20.from Hull and beyond descended on Craven Park for the city's debut as
:20:21. > :20:25.a host city for the Rugby League World Cup. They were entertained by
:20:26. > :20:28.a close fought match between Papua New Guinea and France. Our sports
:20:29. > :20:40.reporter Simon Clark was there. They like their rugby in these parts
:20:41. > :20:45.and they showed up in great numbers. Some from near and far. We
:20:46. > :20:53.really excited. That is why we have the trip from London. We are
:20:54. > :21:01.supporting the team. Great to see a decent sports match bonus time. They
:21:02. > :21:08.were treated by the French. Later on, by the team most in the ground
:21:09. > :21:15.were back. Papua New Guinea. Two dynamic tries put them ahead. This
:21:16. > :21:23.outstanding cake from the French put them back in front. Papua New Guinea
:21:24. > :21:29.dreams were blown away by this missed penalty. We knew it was going
:21:30. > :21:38.to be a tough game but that will make us even hungrier for next week.
:21:39. > :21:45.It is like playing against trees. You get one and then another one
:21:46. > :21:54.comes at you. I think we deserved the game. It is a great opportunity
:21:55. > :21:58.to see a World Cup match here. It is a good facility and very well
:21:59. > :22:07.organised. It is a pity they missed that last one. It was really good
:22:08. > :22:13.and I am coming to the other game as well. Officials from Rugby league
:22:14. > :22:18.World Cup 2013 should be delighted with the crowd of 17000 and will be
:22:19. > :22:24.hoping from similar numbers when Papa New Guinea back to play Samoa.
:22:25. > :22:28.It will be well worth watching. Fans groups from Hull City will meet
:22:29. > :22:30.owner Assem Allam on Friday to express their dissatisfaction with a
:22:31. > :22:37.potential name change to Hull Tigers. On the pitch the side went
:22:38. > :22:41.down to a disputed penalty in the Premier League against Tottenham
:22:42. > :22:47.Hotspur. Roberto Solado scored it and game finished 1`0. A second half
:22:48. > :22:50.goal from Sam Winnall against Hartlepool United kept up Scunthorpe
:22:51. > :22:54.United's chances of fighting for promotion this season. Tomorrow the
:22:55. > :22:58.Iron face the short trip to York City.
:22:59. > :23:03.Football fans in Lincolnshire have got a dream tie in the first round
:23:04. > :23:06.of the FA Cup. Non`league Grimsby Town have a chance to be giant
:23:07. > :23:11.killers against their League Two neighbours Scunthorpe United. And
:23:12. > :23:21.Lincoln City will play Plymouth Argyle if they can beat Worcester in
:23:22. > :23:26.a replay tomorrow at Sincil Bank. Every Saturday night on BBC One,
:23:27. > :23:29.Grimsby has been on the Mac national spotlight on strictly come dancing.
:23:30. > :23:35.9 million viewers have been following the progress of Kevin

:24:14. > :24:16.is different from Kevin's hometown. Sometimes it can feel like Grimsby
:24:17. > :24:20.is a long way from the ballroom but I am here to find out if any of
:24:21. > :24:33.that's showbiz magic is rubbing off on the town. `` that showbiz magic.
:24:34. > :24:40.I do try to bust some moves. Grimsby and Cleethorpes, it doesn't get
:24:41. > :24:46.mentioned that often. It has always been related to fish and the
:24:47. > :24:52.football. It makes a change for somebody flying the flag for

:25:37. > :25:44.Grimsby. We don't get much credit at Grimsby. I have seen one or two
:25:45. > :25:49.people who have been following it. I know it has been quite good for 12
:25:50. > :25:56.of the dance academies in the area. What about the ladies? While there
