it's goodbye from me and on BBC One it's goodbye from me and on BBC One | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
we join the BBC's news teams where Good evening and welcome to BBC Look | :00:00. | :00:14. | |
North. The headlines tonight: An inquest into the death of a Red | :00:15. | :00:17. | |
Arrows pilot hears how his team mates watched in horror as he was | :00:18. | :00:20. | |
ejected from his aircraft. Spiralling debts at a failing health | :00:21. | :00:23. | |
trust ` patient groups fear services may have to go to balance the books. | :00:24. | :00:31. | |
They have to reduce services to counteract the huge deficit. | :00:32. | :00:37. | |
Could Lincolnshire beef be heading to China ` the county farmers | :00:38. | :00:40. | |

What goes bang in the night? The mystery noise that woke hundreds of | :00:43. | :00:53. | |
people around the Humber. It got gradually louder and louder, walkers | :00:54. | :00:58. | |
all up. It woke me up from a deep sleep, so it was quite loud. Your | :00:59. | :01:02. | |
details forecast in ten minutes. Hello. An inquest into the death of | :01:03. | :01:17. | |
a Red Arrows pilot has heard how his team mates watched in horror as he | :01:18. | :01:20. | |
was ejected from his aircraft. Flight Lieutenant Sean Cunningham | :01:21. | :01:23. | |
died when his ejector seat activated, while his plane was on | :01:24. | :01:26. | |
the ground at RAF Scampton in November 2011. His family say they | :01:27. | :01:36. | |
hope the inquest will provide much needed answers. Caroline Bilton's | :01:37. | :01:38. | |
report contains some flash photography. They arrived today | :01:39. | :01:45. | |
looking for answers. Two years ago, their son, brother, friend, fell 200 | :01:46. | :01:53. | |
feet to his death. 35`year`old red arrows pilot Sean Cunningham died | :01:54. | :02:00. | |
after the ejector seat of his jet fired as the plane sat on the timer | :02:01. | :02:07. | |
at RAF Scampton. `` sat on the tarmac. His parachute also failed to | :02:08. | :02:12. | |
open. His death was the second in three months for the red arrows | :02:13. | :02:15. | |
display team. Flight Lieutenant John egging died in the August. His | :02:16. | :02:26. | |
family issued a statement saying: Caroline is in Lincoln tonight. | :02:27. | :02:47. | |
What was said at today's inquest? The inquest heard from some of the | :02:48. | :02:55. | |
most experienced pilots. The red arrows themselves. They spoke of | :02:56. | :03:00. | |
their horror as they could only stand by and watch as their friend | :03:01. | :03:07. | |
felt of the ground. One man gave evidence of how he saw Sean | :03:08. | :03:14. | |
Cunningham's arms flailing around. His best friend described how he ran | :03:15. | :03:20. | |
to be by his side, he desperately tried to cut him free but his | :03:21. | :03:27. | |
efforts to save him were in vain. What did the leader of the team say? | :03:28. | :03:33. | |
Hector Montsegur this afternoon, we heard from the boss `` well, Peter, | :03:34. | :03:41. | |
this afternoon, we heard from the boss. Sean had taken the medication | :03:42. | :03:50. | |
night nurse the night before, and that can have an effect on people. | :03:51. | :04:01. | |
He said: He asked if he could speak to the family directly. He said, it | :04:02. | :04:05. | |
has been a nightmare two years: Caroline, thank you. | :04:06. | :04:23. | |
In a moment: The Lincolnshire man who's battling stormy weather to row | :04:24. | :04:28. | |
the Atlantic. Hospitals in Lincolnshire say they | :04:29. | :04:31. | |
must save ?6 million by the end of March. Even if they do they'll still | :04:32. | :04:43. | |
have a deficit of 26 million. Managers say front line services | :04:44. | :04:52. | |
won't be cut. Today an independent patients group has told Look North | :04:53. | :04:55. | |
it has no confidence that the management of Lincolnshire's | :04:56. | :04:58. | |
hospitals will be able to stop its debts spiralling out of control. | :04:59. | :05:00. | |
Vicky Johnson reports. Who would be a hospital manager ` | :05:01. | :05:04. | |
having to balance the need to provide safe patient care with tight | :05:05. | :05:07. | |
NHS budgets? Last year, Lincolnshire's hospitals were put in | :05:08. | :05:13. | |
special measures. Too few staff to look after patients properly was an | :05:14. | :05:18. | |
issue. Since more than ?4 million have been invested recruiting nurses | :05:19. | :05:22. | |
from here and abroad. But now they need to save ?6 million | :05:23. | :05:33. | |
before the end of March. In many of our nonclinical areas, we put a hold | :05:34. | :05:40. | |
on recruitment. Regrettably, we are having to put a hold on some | :05:41. | :05:46. | |
training and education. The Hospital Trust is certainly no | :05:47. | :05:54. | |
stranger to debt. Three years ago, it was ?14 million in deficit. But | :05:55. | :05:58. | |
by making savings of 15.5 million, they'd managed to break even by the | :05:59. | :06:01. | |
following year. But they're now firmly back in the red. Even if they | :06:02. | :06:05. | |
hit this year's total savings target, they'll still have debts of | :06:06. | :06:12. | |
26 million. We responded to a discussion we had. | :06:13. | :06:14. | |
Healthwatch, the lincolnshire patients group, say they're now | :06:15. | :06:16. | |
losing confidence in the Trust's ability to manage the finances. The | :06:17. | :06:26. | |
original deficit was misreported. They have come back at least twice | :06:27. | :06:32. | |
with additional deficits, which is making the situation worse each | :06:33. | :06:36. | |
time. It reduces the confidence anyone will have. | :06:37. | :06:42. | |
As a former chair of the trust, David Bowles knows how hard it is to | :06:43. | :06:47. | |
balance the books. For a range of reasons, Lincolnshire is badly | :06:48. | :06:54. | |
treated. This could be a recurring thing. | :06:55. | :06:55. | |
The financial future for Lincolnshire's hospitals looks red | :06:56. | :06:58. | |
rather than rosy, and it's unlikely to improve any time soon. | :06:59. | :07:05. | |
We'd like to hear your thoughts on this story. | :07:06. | :07:32. | |
Lincolnshire Police say the two schoolgirls seriously injured in a | :07:33. | :07:37. | |
collision on the A15 are still in a critical but stable condition. The | :07:38. | :07:43. | |
11`year`olds are being treated at the Queens Medical Centre in | :07:44. | :07:50. | |
Nottingham. They were hit by a minibus at Thurlby near Bourne on | :07:51. | :07:53. | |
Tuesday. Lincolnshire County Council says the speed limit is to be | :07:54. | :07:57. | |
reduced on the stretch of road where the collision happened, although | :07:58. | :08:00. | |
that decision was made before the incident occurred. | :08:01. | :08:02. | |
Yorkshire ambulance staff are being balloted for strike action over | :08:03. | :08:04. | |
plans to change their shift patterns. The Unite union claims the | :08:05. | :08:07. | |
changes could mean paramedics having to work ten hours without a meal | :08:08. | :08:13. | |
break. They also say the new shifts are not "family friendly and will | :08:14. | :08:16. | |
lead to an overtired workforce". The Yorkshire Ambulance Trust says | :08:17. | :08:19. | |
Unite's claims are misleading and factually incorrect. | :08:20. | :08:22. | |
The Environment Secretary Owen Paterson says it was "astonishing" | :08:23. | :08:25. | |
to see the aftermath of the tidal surge which hit East Yorkshire and | :08:26. | :08:28. | |
Lincolnshire in December. He was responding in the Commons to a | :08:29. | :08:32. | |
question from Martin Vickers, the MP for Cleethorpes, who said local | :08:33. | :08:35. | |
people need urgent action to protect their homes. It was astonishing to | :08:36. | :08:49. | |
see that was a 500 year incident. I endorse his few there should be | :08:50. | :08:53. | |
involvement of local people. I am happy for him to write to me and we | :08:54. | :08:57. | |
can negotiate with the Environment Agency. I would encourage them to | :08:58. | :09:05. | |
get local councils involved. A disabled women from Hull says she | :09:06. | :09:08. | |
fears eviction because changes to housing benefits are pushing those | :09:09. | :09:11. | |
with disabilities deeper into debt. Sandra Dove says her family need | :09:12. | :09:14. | |
extra space for her wheelchair and a carer. But since April, people who | :09:15. | :09:23. | |
get housing benefit have been charged extra for every spareroom. | :09:24. | :09:31. | |
One charity is warning thousands of disabled people are living in fear | :09:32. | :09:35. | |
of losing their homes. Sarah Corker reports. | :09:36. | :09:38. | |
Sandra Dove's home on the Bransholme estate has been specially adapted so | :09:39. | :09:44. | |
she can get around. 18 years ago, the family say they | :09:45. | :09:47. | |
got permission to knock two box rooms into one so they could fit a | :09:48. | :09:58. | |
wheelchair around the bed. The war went across here. You could not get | :09:59. | :10:00. | |
through the door with the wheelchair. | :10:01. | :10:02. | |
And they've got two other rooms for their son and a carer. But now the | :10:03. | :10:06. | |
family say they've been told to pay back hundreds of pounds in so`called | :10:07. | :10:10. | |
bedroom tax, because they have two spare rooms. The financial worries | :10:11. | :10:21. | |
it is causing, you are paying your utility bills and all that. | :10:22. | :10:27. | |
The problem is there's no record of permission from the council to | :10:28. | :10:30. | |
convert the room, so it's deemed as a four`bed house. It is affecting | :10:31. | :10:37. | |
disabled groups as well as other groups. We are finding it very | :10:38. | :10:43. | |
difficult to try and meet needs or individuals. | :10:44. | :10:53. | |
The Government has set aside extra money to help the most vulnerable | :10:54. | :10:56. | |
residents. Hull City Council was given ?707,000 pounds, which so far | :10:57. | :10:59. | |
has helped 3854 households. There's now ?30,000 left in the pot. The | :11:00. | :11:03. | |
council has been allocated a further ?180,000. Whatever the arguments | :11:04. | :11:08. | |
about number of bedrooms, are not a sufficient number of adapted | :11:09. | :11:13. | |
properties for disabled people to move to. The Government says it | :11:14. | :11:22. | |
needs to free up larger houses for families stuck on a waiting list. | :11:23. | :11:29. | |
The government has said anybody who lives in the same house since the | :11:30. | :11:34. | |
1st of January 1996 and continually received housing benefit since then | :11:35. | :11:38. | |
should not have to pay extra for any spare rooms. | :11:39. | :11:45. | |
And the council say that could apply to the Doves ` they've lived here | :11:46. | :11:48. | |
for 30 years. For many others in adapted homes, they must find the | :11:49. | :11:52. | |
extra money find a smaller home. We'd like to hear your thoughts on | :11:53. | :11:55. | |
this story. Still ahead tonight: And the rugby | :11:56. | :12:04. | |
star delivering aid to families in need ` 8,000 miles away. | :12:05. | :12:10. | |
Thunder, an aircraft, or something more sinister? What caused the big | :12:11. | :12:17. | |
bang that woke hundred along the banks of the Humber last night? | :12:18. | :12:26. | |
I heard a high`pitched whine, but that was about 6:45pm. | :12:27. | :12:31. | |
James Barlow took this of North Leverton Windmill south of | :12:32. | :12:40. | |
Gainsborough. Another picture tomorrow night. Good evening. | :12:41. | :12:46. | |
If that ban was us understand, I did not forecast that, did I? Somebody | :12:47. | :12:51. | |
says, Peter goes red when he thinks you are going to see something rude, | :12:52. | :12:55. | |
my wife June seem to see that every night. `` my wife tunes in to see | :12:56. | :13:07. | |
that every night. Tomorrow, dry with some sunshine. It will cloud over | :13:08. | :13:17. | |
from the West with patchy rain. Once it clears, the weekend is looking | :13:18. | :13:20. | |
promising with plenty of sunshine, all parts dry. Last night, allegedly | :13:21. | :13:31. | |
a thunderstorm that I did not forecast. As we head through this | :13:32. | :13:38. | |
evening and overnight, I think it is going to be dry with good, clear | :13:39. | :13:44. | |
periods. The wind will ease later. Lowest temperatures down to one | :13:45. | :13:55. | |
Celsius. The sun will rise at around 8:15am. Tomorrow looks pleasant. | :13:56. | :14:19. | |
Some sunshine, it will cloud over. Not as heavy as the rain was last | :14:20. | :14:23. | |
night. Top temperatures close to average for this time of year. | :14:24. | :14:32. | |
Outbreaks of rain and drizzle on Friday night. The weekend is looking | :14:33. | :14:46. | |
very nice. Monday should be present with sunny spells. | :14:47. | :14:51. | |
Anything else you want to forecast tonight? | :14:52. | :14:57. | |
DVRs move for you, Peter? Good night. | :14:58. | :15:03. | |
Business leaders from China are in Lincolnshire to discuss trading | :15:04. | :15:07. | |
opportunities with farmers and rural industries. The Chinese delegation | :15:08. | :15:17. | |
wants to buy beef from the county. Paul Murphy reports. | :15:18. | :15:21. | |
There's always been a high demand for Tony Lockwood's high quality | :15:22. | :15:25. | |
beef. But now there's interest from one of the biggest markets in the | :15:26. | :15:35. | |
world. The Chinese have taken quite a shine to the cattle on this small | :15:36. | :15:40. | |
Lincolnshire farm. On a personal level, we found them very open and | :15:41. | :15:45. | |
inviting, and very interested in everything we were doing. They seem | :15:46. | :15:50. | |
very open`minded. Would you encourage other farmers to think | :15:51. | :15:54. | |
about this? Oh, definitely, yes. I think we could transfer a lot of | :15:55. | :15:59. | |
what we're doing to help them and sellers to product at the same time. | :16:00. | :16:02. | |
The Chinese are no strangers to Lincolnshire. There are already more | :16:03. | :16:07. | |
than 1,500 Chinese students at Lincoln University, spending ?30 | :16:08. | :16:10. | |
million per year. There's heavy investment in high tech companies | :16:11. | :16:12. | |
like Dynex, which makes components for China's railways. And it all | :16:13. | :16:23. | |
comes as Britain attempts to forge an EU ` China Trade agreement which | :16:24. | :16:27. | |
the Prime Minister believes will be worth tens of billions of pounds. | :16:28. | :16:29. | |
Lincolnshire's farming industry is being urged to get involved in this | :16:30. | :16:35. | |
strengthening relationship. They are trying to improve their own farming | :16:36. | :16:39. | |
industry and are looking to talk to Lincolnshire farmers to see how they | :16:40. | :16:42. | |
do it, and perhaps set up a cooperative project. I think it is | :16:43. | :16:47. | |
an opportunity for Lincolnshire to showcase what they do best, and | :16:48. | :16:51. | |
another at Unity for the Council to be seen on a worldwide stage. | :16:52. | :16:54. | |
The delegation of Chinese investors arrived in Lincoln last this | :16:55. | :16:56. | |
afternoon to talk business. They're thoughts summed up by an | :16:57. | :17:01. | |
interpreter. They are very interested in making friends and | :17:02. | :17:06. | |
also, they are representatives of other cultures, and Lincoln is an | :17:07. | :17:13. | |
agricultural area, so that is why they come here. | :17:14. | :17:15. | |
China is a nation hungry for Western produce and expertise, and if all | :17:16. | :17:18. | |
goes to plan, then Lincolnshire beef will soon be the menu in the Far | :17:19. | :17:25. | |
East. The US Air Force has begun to remove | :17:26. | :17:29. | |
the bodies of four American airmen, who died in a helicopter crash in | :17:30. | :17:36. | |
north Norfolk. British and American investigators are trying to | :17:37. | :17:39. | |
establish what caused the Pave Hawk aircraft to come down at | :17:40. | :17:41. | |
Clye`next`the`Sea during a training exercise on Tuesday night. | :17:42. | :17:44. | |
Debbie Tubby is at Salthouse near the scene. Debbie, this is a | :17:45. | :17:51. | |
delicate operation, what are the police and US Air Force saying? As | :17:52. | :17:59. | |
you can see 48 hours after the crash, the police are still here, | :18:00. | :18:03. | |
the road is still closed and the cord and is still in place. The four | :18:04. | :18:08. | |
dead crew members have been taken away on what has been a very | :18:09. | :18:12. | |
difficult day for those involved. American air force staff have been | :18:13. | :18:16. | |
working on the crash site, coping with the rough terrain and the | :18:17. | :18:22. | |
weather. The service was held in the church and prayers were said. | :18:23. | :18:30. | |
Candles were lit. I thought it was appropriate to contact the wardens | :18:31. | :18:33. | |
and say we would come in here, given the tragedy of the helicopter | :18:34. | :18:40. | |
crash. We met this morning to do morning prayers, but focused on the | :18:41. | :18:46. | |
four aircrew that were killed and their families and friends and | :18:47. | :18:54. | |
colleagues. The investigation does continue. The marshes could be | :18:55. | :19:01. | |
closed for several weeks. The red behind the is due to open on | :19:02. | :19:05. | |
Monday. Staff that have been working here today can go home tonight | :19:06. | :19:08. | |
knowing they have done a very difficult job, but also hopefully | :19:09. | :19:11. | |
giving some comfort to those families involved. Thank you. | :19:12. | :19:15. | |
A proposal to give local authorities greater powers to decide on the | :19:16. | :19:18. | |
types of gambling machines in betting shops has been thrown out in | :19:19. | :19:24. | |
the Commons. The Labour MP for Scunthorpe Nic Dakin wanted councils | :19:25. | :19:28. | |
to be able to restrict the number of "fixed odds machines" that allow | :19:29. | :19:31. | |
people to bet up to ?300 a minute. But last night the Planning Minster | :19:32. | :19:34. | |
and MP for Grantham and Stamford Nick Boles said councils already | :19:35. | :19:36. | |
have the power to intervene. A Lincolnshire man who's trying to | :19:37. | :20:08. | |
row across the Atlantic says he's won't give up despite being battered | :20:09. | :20:11. | |
by 13`foot high waves and nearly capsizing several times. Luke Birch | :20:12. | :20:16. | |
from Doddington and his friend Jamie Sparks are taking part in the | :20:17. | :20:19. | |
Talisker Atlantic Challenge, which is described as the world's toughest | :20:20. | :20:26. | |
rowing race. Several boats have already been forced to give up after | :20:27. | :20:30. | |
severe storms. Jill Archbold takes up the story. | :20:31. | :20:39. | |
It's been their home for 36 days, but these two best friends are now | :20:40. | :20:42. | |
mid`way through an attempt to row their boat across the Atlantic. They | :20:43. | :20:57. | |
are sailing into strong winds. If Luke Birch and Jamie Sparks complete | :20:58. | :21:00. | |
the race ` they will become the youngest pair to row the Atlantic. | :21:01. | :21:04. | |
But weather conditions are making it a dangerous journey. We almost went | :21:05. | :21:10. | |
over twice. It is nerve wracking. Even if we do go over, I know it | :21:11. | :21:23. | |
will be fine. It is just a lot of highs and lows. A long way from home | :21:24. | :21:27. | |
comforts, the pair saw their only matress washed overboard, but say | :21:28. | :21:30. | |
support from family back in Lincolnshire is keeping them going. | :21:31. | :21:37. | |
They don't have access to Facebook, but we will read messages out over | :21:38. | :21:44. | |
the phone. While the laptop was working, we could send e`mails with | :21:45. | :21:46. | |
messages for them. For those watching nervously at home, they can | :21:47. | :21:50. | |
track every stroke of the boat's progress. And victory is in sight ` | :21:51. | :21:53. | |
this duo are currently holding second place in the pairs race. | :21:54. | :22:04. | |
I can't imagine being in that boat in the middle of the Atlantic at the | :22:05. | :22:09. | |
moment. Good luck to them. A rugby star from East Yorkshire has | :22:10. | :22:11. | |
delivered much`needed hospital and schools equipment to his home | :22:12. | :22:14. | |
country of Papua New Guinea. Hull Kingston Rovers' Stanley Gene has | :22:15. | :22:17. | |
lived in England for nearly 20 years but through his own charity he | :22:18. | :22:20. | |
provides aid to remote and deprived areas. Here's Simon Clark. | :22:21. | :22:31. | |
This is how we know Stanley Gene, a Hull Kingston Rovers luminary, who | :22:32. | :22:36. | |
was also played for Hull FC. He returned home to Papa New Guinea | :22:37. | :22:39. | |
this year, taking with him a lorry load of goods to remote | :22:40. | :22:43. | |
communities, donated by the people of East Yorkshire. It gives you | :22:44. | :23:01. | |
goose bumps. The container made an eight`hour journey from the port to | :23:02. | :23:12. | |
the villages. The students and people in the villages are so | :23:13. | :23:17. | |
appreciative of things it does seem ordinary here. Stanley delivers to | :23:18. | :23:24. | |
hospitals and schools. Electricity is unreliable. There is one single | :23:25. | :23:28. | |
Rd running through the village. People here do not have a lot. There | :23:29. | :23:37. | |
are library books here. It is a real blessing. Thank you, Stanley. Stan | :23:38. | :23:47. | |
is now carving out a career in England as a coach, but thoughts of | :23:48. | :23:50. | |
helping those at home and never far away. | :23:51. | :23:54. | |
It roused people from their sleep from Cottingham to Cleethorpes. But | :23:55. | :24:00. | |
what was the big bang heard by many at 3.45 this morning? On social | :24:01. | :24:08. | |
media, the speculation's ranged from one big thunderclap to a typhoon | :24:09. | :24:18. | |
going supersonic. It got gradually louder and louder, will close. The | :24:19. | :24:24. | |
cat went crazy. We had a customer who thought it was an explosion. | :24:25. | :24:27. | |
A big bang in the early hours heard by Jim, and then kennel keeper John. | :24:28. | :24:30. | |
But with locals successfully checking to see industry wasn't to | :24:31. | :24:38. | |
blame, the questions started. What caused a loud bang across the Humber | :24:39. | :24:45. | |
at 3.45 this morning? It woke me up from a deep sleep, so it was quite | :24:46. | :24:51. | |
loud, but it was only the ones. When in doubt, turn to Twitter. Jenny | :24:52. | :25:02. | |
Adams said she had e`mailed as well as head. Brilliant bright light, | :25:03. | :25:07. | |
just like a nuclear explosion. It looked all my solar lights. Was it a | :25:08. | :25:17. | |
solar flares? So was the shortest storm in history? Solar flares are | :25:18. | :25:22. | |
silent, so the MoD say no. This was the weather forecast last night. No | :25:23. | :25:28. | |
mention of thunder by the Met Office before or since. There is one other | :25:29. | :25:35. | |
alternative. It could have been a small meteorite bought astroid | :25:36. | :25:40. | |
coming into the atmosphere and grazing through it. Imagine a plate | :25:41. | :25:47. | |
been skimmed across a pond. Bit fanciful, but that's the sort of | :25:48. | :25:55. | |
idea of how you could get it. Possibly a meteor. Problem solved? | :25:56. | :26:02. | |
Hardly, but it is a possibility. The question remains, what will wake you | :26:03. | :26:03. | |
up tomorrow morning? Let's get a recap of the national | :26:04. | :26:09. | |
and regional headlines. The Metropolitan Police says it | :26:10. | :26:12. | |
needs to do better in black communities in the wake of the | :26:13. | :26:15. | |
Duggan inquest. An inquest into the death of a Red Arrows pilot hears | :26:16. | :26:19. | |
how his team mates watched in horror as he was ejected from his aircraft. | :26:20. | :26:36. | |
We were talking about hospitals and Lincolnshire that need to save ?6 | :26:37. | :26:45. | |
million by the end of March. Daniel said, good idea to get rid of | :26:46. | :26:49. | |
overpaid managers, I am sure a matron could run hospitals better | :26:50. | :27:00. | |
and cheaper. Kate said, if they make any more cuts, they were not built | :27:01. | :27:04. | |
to provide the services required. Susan says, we do not need another | :27:05. | :27:08. | |
change in management, we need enough money to bail to run the trust. This | :27:09. | :27:18. | |
one is anonymous. It says, I work at a hospital Lincolnshire, and we have | :27:19. | :27:25. | |
five staff on for 32 patients. We borrow essential equipment from | :27:26. | :27:30. | |
other wards as we do not have any. Finally, Becky says, totally unfair | :27:31. | :27:37. | |
to ask a hospital to cut back. They do a brilliant job. | :27:38. | :27:43. | |
Thank you for those. Have a nice evening. Goodbye. | :27:44. | :27:53. | |
