North. The headlines tonight: Millions of pounds for Lincolnshire | :00:09. | :00:12. | |
as a major oil company invests in fracking in the county. | :00:13. | :00:21. | |
This has been going on and has been done safely. It is not hugely | :00:22. | :00:25. | |
impacting in terms of the local community. | :00:26. | :00:27. | |
David Cameron visits Lincolnshire to give his support to fracking. | :00:28. | :00:35. | |
People can already see this is a safe and successful industry, | :00:36. | :00:38. | |
employing a local people. An inquest into the death of a Red | :00:39. | :00:42. | |
Arrows pilot hears an engineer who worked on his plane wasn't properly | :00:43. | :00:44. | |
authorised. The residents campaigning for the | :00:45. | :00:47. | |
removal of this eyesore in the Humber. | :00:48. | :00:50. | |
Two games from Wembley ` non`league North Ferriby reach the quarter | :00:51. | :00:58. | |
finals of the FA Trophy. And the forecast will follow later | :00:59. | :01:00. | |
in the programme. The major French oil company Total | :01:01. | :01:12. | |
has today announced it will invest ?28 million in Lincolnshire to carry | :01:13. | :01:17. | |
out fracking. To show his support for the industry, the Prime Minister | :01:18. | :01:20. | |
visited Lincolnshire this morning. On a trip to Gainsborough, he told | :01:21. | :01:24. | |
BBC Look North that fracking, which is the extraction of shale gas from | :01:25. | :01:27. | |
underground will bring huge benefits to the local economy. We'll hear | :01:28. | :01:32. | |
from David Cameron in a moment, but first let's look at how widespread | :01:33. | :01:35. | |
the impact of fracking could be for us here. The geology of our area | :01:36. | :01:39. | |
means large parts of East Yorkshire and Lincolnshire have already been | :01:40. | :01:41. | |
licensed for fracking, the black areas. In the red areas, more | :01:42. | :01:46. | |
licences will be auctioned in the summer. So what does fracking | :01:47. | :01:49. | |
involve? It means drilling down and then injecting a mix of water, sand | :01:50. | :01:53. | |
and chemicals into the earth under high pressure. This then releases | :01:54. | :01:59. | |
the shale gas which flows back to ground level. Supporters say it will | :02:00. | :02:03. | |
mean cheap energy bills but environmental campaigners say the | :02:04. | :02:05. | |
process could cause contamination and lead to earth tremors. Our first | :02:06. | :02:12. | |
report tonight comes from our political editor, Tim Iredale. | :02:13. | :02:18. | |
We have nothing to fear from fracking. That was the Prime | :02:19. | :02:20. | |
Minister's message today, as he toured an oil depot near | :02:21. | :02:24. | |
Gainsborough. This is one of the areas earmarked by the French energy | :02:25. | :02:27. | |
giant Total which has announced the biggest ever investment in the UK | :02:28. | :02:35. | |
shale gas industry. We are promised lower energy bills. Here on the | :02:36. | :02:43. | |
Lincolnshire and Nottinghamshire border, where we have oil and gas | :02:44. | :02:46. | |
extraction taking place right now, people can already see this is a | :02:47. | :02:49. | |
safe and successful industry, employing local people. It will be | :02:50. | :02:55. | |
even more so when they moved to exploiting shale gas opportunities | :02:56. | :02:57. | |
as well. But some remain sceptical about this new potential energy | :02:58. | :03:07. | |
source. The health impacts of methane in the water courses are of | :03:08. | :03:18. | |
a huge concern. Most importantly, it is local communities. They watch how | :03:19. | :03:23. | |
we function and operate every day. Their right to ask the questions, | :03:24. | :03:27. | |
but she'll gas... However, those already involved with shale gas | :03:28. | :03:29. | |
exploration say that risk is minimal. The Government accepts his | :03:30. | :03:34. | |
country as # this process is controversial, but he says people | :03:35. | :03:38. | |
will come to see the economic benefits of shale gas exploration. | :03:39. | :03:50. | |
I do apologise. That is a slight problem there with the film. I spoke | :03:51. | :03:57. | |
to the group that interest `` represents the interests of the oil | :03:58. | :04:00. | |
and gas industry and I asked what financial incentive Gainsborough | :04:01. | :04:04. | |
would get. It is difficult to say at this | :04:05. | :04:08. | |
process in time. In terms of funding, we have said five `?10 | :04:09. | :04:12. | |
million per site over the lifetime of the asset. Most of it will come | :04:13. | :04:16. | |
in the first ten years. In terms of local communities, the Government | :04:17. | :04:20. | |
has talked about business rates being 1.7 million for each council. | :04:21. | :04:27. | |
This is a bribe, isn't it, to accept something that people do not want on | :04:28. | :04:34. | |
their back door. Now, it is not a bribe. It is an award for hosting | :04:35. | :04:38. | |
sites on behalf of others in the country. Secondly, it is a | :04:39. | :04:41. | |
commonplace scheme in terms of business rates and committee funds. | :04:42. | :04:46. | |
It comes from the onshore wind and give. Total is French. I gather fans | :04:47. | :04:57. | |
do not want it and have come knocking here. Total's announcement | :04:58. | :05:05. | |
today is very good in terms of energy security and economic | :05:06. | :05:10. | |
benefits. France have made a political decision not to do | :05:11. | :05:14. | |
hydraulic fracturing for this moment in time. That could change. We have | :05:15. | :05:18. | |
heard the earthquake story in Blackpool. We have seen frightening | :05:19. | :05:23. | |
pictures of tap water in America. We do not know if this is safe, do we? | :05:24. | :05:30. | |
We have a highly regulated industry in the UK. We have four different | :05:31. | :05:36. | |
regulators looking at this over a long period of time. We have been | :05:37. | :05:39. | |
chilling in this country for over 100 years. We have hydraulically | :05:40. | :05:45. | |
fractured very safely and environmentally sensitive way. But | :05:46. | :05:49. | |
we have seen what happened in Blackpool. It is untested. Our | :05:50. | :05:54. | |
broadcast area map almost identically is covered by the | :05:55. | :05:59. | |
fracking map. What you say to people who are concerned? There was a study | :06:00. | :06:07. | |
last year about induced seismicity. A situation like that will not | :06:08. | :06:16. | |
happen again. Is it a gamble? No. The fracking process has caused | :06:17. | :06:19. | |
widespread controversy, with environmental campaigners organising | :06:20. | :06:21. | |
protests whenever it has been tested in other parts of the country. But | :06:22. | :06:25. | |
supporters say it will mean more money for councils to spend on local | :06:26. | :06:31. | |
services. Our reporter has been to the village of Laughton near | :06:32. | :06:34. | |
Gainsborough to find out what people living there think of fracking in | :06:35. | :06:36. | |
the area. Laughton, a quiet Lincolnshire | :06:37. | :06:41. | |
village surrounded by fields. It is exactly the type of place companies | :06:42. | :06:44. | |
think could be perfect to explore for shale gas. Last year, plans were | :06:45. | :06:48. | |
approved to allow drilling on this field just outside the village. | :06:49. | :06:52. | |
There was local opposition back then and villagers I've spoken to today | :06:53. | :06:55. | |
say cash incentives wouldn't have made any difference. I would rather | :06:56. | :07:05. | |
not have the fracking and not have any facilities that are likely to be | :07:06. | :07:09. | |
provided by any so`called intervention money. Now, it is | :07:10. | :07:16. | |
bribery. Out and out bribery. What we need here is not right money. So | :07:17. | :07:22. | |
why such negativity towards fracking? Reports of | :07:23. | :07:24. | |
mini`earthquakes, water contamination and environmental | :07:25. | :07:26. | |
damage and the effect on the environment has worried many. Joy | :07:27. | :07:33. | |
has lived here for 40 years. She believes any drilling nearby would | :07:34. | :07:37. | |
change the nature of the village. I do worry quite a lot about the | :07:38. | :07:41. | |
possibility of tremors. I am also annoyed about the aspect of | :07:42. | :07:47. | |
wildlife. This is an area with a tremendous variety of wildlife. How | :07:48. | :07:52. | |
that is good to be affected, I cannot begin to think. We will go | :07:53. | :07:56. | |
through an extremely rigorous planning process. The council says | :07:57. | :08:00. | |
the money offered by the Government won't influence decisions on whether | :08:01. | :08:03. | |
to grant planning applications, but in principle it has welcomed the | :08:04. | :08:08. | |
idea. It is nice that they are there, but it will not alter what we | :08:09. | :08:12. | |
have to do to check and make sure that the application is safe. There | :08:13. | :08:17. | |
has not been drilling here so far. After today's endorsements, it is | :08:18. | :08:21. | |
likely many villages in this area could see applications for gas apple | :08:22. | :08:25. | |
take `` gas exploration beneath them. | :08:26. | :08:29. | |
We would be very keen to hear yours. `` hear your thoughts on | :08:30. | :08:38. | |
this. Would you welcome fracking if it means bringing jobs and | :08:39. | :08:41. | |
investment to the area? How worried are you about the environmental | :08:42. | :08:44. | |
impacts, not just to Lincolnshire, but East Yorkshire as well? If you | :08:45. | :08:49. | |
want to get in touch, follow the details on screen. | :08:50. | :09:10. | |
An inquest into the death of a Red Arrows pilot has heard that a senior | :09:11. | :09:16. | |
engineer had warned about a risk to life because of a lack of manpower | :09:17. | :09:20. | |
and training of engineers working on his aircraft. Sean Cunningham died | :09:21. | :09:22. | |
when his ejection seat activated while his plane was on the ground at | :09:23. | :09:28. | |
RAF Scampton in November 2011. Today the inquest heard that the | :09:29. | :09:31. | |
authorisation for one of the engineers had lapsed shortly before | :09:32. | :09:33. | |
the accident. Jake Zuckerman has been in court. What was said about | :09:34. | :09:36. | |
the lapse in authorisation? Today, the inquest has focussed on | :09:37. | :09:39. | |
the maintenance undertaken on the ejection seat in Flight Lieutenant | :09:40. | :09:42. | |
Cunningham's aircraft prior to the incident which led to his death. | :09:43. | :09:45. | |
Cunningham's aircraft prior to the incident which led The inquest heard | :09:46. | :09:47. | |
from Sergeant Michael Poultney, an armourer working at RAF Scampton. | :09:48. | :09:51. | |
Prior to the incident, he had carried out work on the ejection | :09:52. | :09:55. | |
seat. He said he wasn't aware that over`tightening a particular bolt | :09:56. | :09:57. | |
could potentially lead to the seat failing to operate properly. | :09:58. | :10:01. | |
It also emerged that his authorisation to carry out the work | :10:02. | :10:04. | |
had lapsed, and that he should have undertaken a refresher course. The | :10:05. | :10:14. | |
inquest here from senior officers about the laps and authorisation? | :10:15. | :10:19. | |
The inquest also heard from Wing Commander Ross Priday, who was the | :10:20. | :10:22. | |
senior engineering officer for the Red Arrows. He said, the fact that | :10:23. | :10:25. | |
an authorisation had expired concerned me greatly. It was | :10:26. | :10:29. | |
unacceptable. The inquest was told that an audit of Sergeant Poultney's | :10:30. | :10:33. | |
work was carried out by the RAF, but no problems were highlighted. Wing | :10:34. | :10:35. | |
Commander Priday said, the conclusion of that is that the lapse | :10:36. | :10:38. | |
in authority posed no airworthiness or safety threat whatsoever and | :10:39. | :10:41. | |
therefore wasn't a factor in this accident. In the course of evidence, | :10:42. | :10:48. | |
it emerged that prior to the accident the Wing Commander had | :10:49. | :10:51. | |
raised concerns about the risk to life posed by a lack of manpower and | :10:52. | :10:55. | |
training issues on the engineering side at the Red Arrows. But he said | :10:56. | :11:00. | |
that he didn't believe that either of these issues had contributed to | :11:01. | :11:04. | |
the accident that killed Sean Cunningham. The inquest continues | :11:05. | :11:19. | |
tomorrow. Police have named a man from Louth who was found murdered | :11:20. | :11:22. | |
over the weekend. Richard Samuel Woods ` who was 32 ` was found at a | :11:23. | :11:26. | |
house on Spring Terrace in the early hours of Sunday morning. A | :11:27. | :11:29. | |
23`year`old man arrested at the scene remains in police custody. | :11:30. | :11:32. | |
Hull Crown Court has heard today how a 28`year`old woman died in a crash | :11:33. | :11:36. | |
after her car was hit by another vehicle driven in a tragic | :11:37. | :11:39. | |
coincidence by her younger sister. Rosie Ann Stone, who is 20, denies | :11:40. | :11:42. | |
causing the death of her sister Jennie Stone by careless driving on | :11:43. | :11:45. | |
the A165 near Fraisthorpe. The collision last February happened | :11:46. | :11:48. | |
just months after their soldier brother, Greg, was killed in | :11:49. | :11:50. | |
Afghanistan. The case continues. Hull City Council's cabinet has | :11:51. | :11:53. | |
backed a report recommending the closure of Endeavour High School | :11:54. | :11:58. | |
next year. The school, which opened in 2003, has been placed in special | :11:59. | :12:02. | |
measures three times and has seen a yearly fall in student numbers. | :12:03. | :12:10. | |
Railway services between Sleaford and Lincoln have returned to normal | :12:11. | :12:13. | |
today. The lime has been closed since Tuesday due to landslip. | :12:14. | :12:19. | |
Network Rail see that work to stabilise the bank has been | :12:20. | :12:20. | |
completed. It is claimed that a disused tidal | :12:21. | :12:24. | |
power generator in the Humber is an eyesore and is affecting house | :12:25. | :12:28. | |
prices in the area. Now a campaign has begun to have it removed. The | :12:29. | :12:32. | |
Neptune was built to provide power to The Deep, but the project was | :12:33. | :12:35. | |
scrapped when the company behind it went into liquidation. Emma Massey | :12:36. | :12:37. | |
reports. This is the Neptune, the result of | :12:38. | :12:42. | |
seven years of private investment. Its job ` to harness the power of | :12:43. | :12:45. | |
the River Humber to generate electricity. The project was | :12:46. | :12:49. | |
abandoned nearly a year ago, and so too was this yellow contraption. Now | :12:50. | :12:58. | |
we have got a pile of junk overlooking all the residents. | :12:59. | :13:02. | |
Phillip Gittens, who had enjoyed the views from his house for seven years | :13:03. | :13:05. | |
before it arrived, says his neighbours in Victoria Dock feel the | :13:06. | :13:08. | |
same way. It's an eyesore and they want it removed. If you were looking | :13:09. | :13:14. | |
at the window before that came, you looked onto the river. It was a nice | :13:15. | :13:21. | |
view. Now you look onto that monstrosity. For this house | :13:22. | :13:24. | |
particularly, it looks directly onto it. Neptune Renewable Energy | :13:25. | :13:28. | |
deployed it in January 2012 but despite testing and modifications | :13:29. | :13:30. | |
they were unable to achieve enough electricity. The company then went | :13:31. | :13:41. | |
into liquidation. It is not being maintained because the company | :13:42. | :13:44. | |
behind it has gone past. There is a problem with noise from it. We're | :13:45. | :13:47. | |
worried about vandalism on the site. We were promised when it first went | :13:48. | :13:52. | |
in that the area would be returned to the stated was before it went in, | :13:53. | :13:56. | |
and that is what we want to see happen. The Crown now owns the land | :13:57. | :14:00. | |
the device is on. They have to maintain it but they don't have to | :14:01. | :14:03. | |
remove it. That's the job of the Department for Energy and Climate | :14:04. | :14:07. | |
Change. It's says it's in "active discussions with partner agencies | :14:08. | :14:09. | |
for the safe and expedient decommissioning of the facility | :14:10. | :14:11. | |
following the owners going into liquidation". But this won't be a | :14:12. | :14:20. | |
quick process. You have got to think about the environment, navigational | :14:21. | :14:24. | |
safety. It is not just the case of killing of the bulldozer and taking | :14:25. | :14:30. | |
it away. It is a very complicated process that has to be going through | :14:31. | :14:34. | |
to decommission it. I would imagine the decommissioning process would | :14:35. | :14:36. | |
have been thought about when the original licence for the facility | :14:37. | :14:38. | |
was granted. There were high hopes for this | :14:39. | :14:41. | |
renewable energy device to power business and homes along the Humber. | :14:42. | :14:45. | |
Now the only hope is that it is removed. And while as yet there's no | :14:46. | :14:48. | |
frame for that, residents should feel safe in the knowledge that the | :14:49. | :14:52. | |
lease cannot be sold on. So once this eyesore has gone, it's gone for | :14:53. | :15:01. | |
good. We will let you know what happens on that one. | :15:02. | :15:04. | |
Still ahead tonight: Smoking allowed ` the fish producers who say their | :15:05. | :15:08. | |
protected status has been a waste of time. | :15:09. | :15:12. | |
The best and the worst ` one train spotter's journey around all of the | :15:13. | :15:14. | |
country's stations. Tonight's photograph is taken by | :15:15. | :15:31. | |
Terry Wilde in East Park Lake. Stunning picture. Thank you very | :15:32. | :15:42. | |
much. Send your photograph in. I thought we did a train anorak | :15:43. | :15:47. | |
piece last week? This is very embarrassing. Let's have a look at | :15:48. | :15:54. | |
the weather over the next 24 hours. There is a warning of is in place. | :15:55. | :16:00. | |
We have not seen that too often this winter. But we will have is for the | :16:01. | :16:05. | |
commute fostering in the morning. Tomorrow, a lovely winter's day, try | :16:06. | :16:12. | |
with sunshine. A ridge of high pressure before this weather system | :16:13. | :16:18. | |
brings rain in from the South West. In mild day to come on Wednesday. | :16:19. | :16:25. | |
This is the line of showers. This arm of showers came through | :16:26. | :16:27. | |
Birmingham with hailstones and torrential rain. It is heading | :16:28. | :16:30. | |
towards Lincolnshire in the next couple of hours. It will slowly | :16:31. | :16:34. | |
cloud over and there will be a scattering of showers, erratically | :16:35. | :16:37. | |
spreading north eastwards. We will see clearer skies developing right | :16:38. | :16:42. | |
towards the end of the night. That is when temperatures will take a dip | :16:43. | :16:46. | |
and there is a risk of icy patches on untreated surfaces. Lows in the | :16:47. | :16:53. | |
range of 1`3 Celsius. The sun will rise in the morning at 12 minutes | :16:54. | :16:56. | |
past eight. Your next high water time, there we are. Patchy fog and | :16:57. | :17:06. | |
icy patches. It will brighten up fairly steadily through the | :17:07. | :17:09. | |
first`half of the morning. It is a winter's day, that high insuring a | :17:10. | :17:14. | |
dry day with sunshine and just like West Southwest wind. Despite the | :17:15. | :17:19. | |
fact it will be a light wind, it will feel quite chilly with highs | :17:20. | :17:25. | |
below average of five Celsius. Rain to come on Tuesday night. Wednesday, | :17:26. | :17:30. | |
rain at fast and again late on. In between, mild and drive but cloudy | :17:31. | :17:35. | |
with, at the moment, Thursday and Friday looking dry with some | :17:36. | :17:36. | |
sunshine. That is the forecast. I tell you what, I will send you the | :17:37. | :17:54. | |
invoice for that one. See you tomorrow. | :17:55. | :17:57. | |
Four years ago, traditional Grimsby smoked fish joined the likes of | :17:58. | :18:00. | |
champagne and Wensleydale cheese, winning EU protected status. But | :18:01. | :18:03. | |
while it has led to increased sales for other foods, Grimsby's | :18:04. | :18:06. | |
smokehouses say they haven't seen the benefit at all, and the local | :18:07. | :18:09. | |
council isn't doing enough to promote them. Jill Archbold reports. | :18:10. | :18:19. | |
Here in Grimsby, they have been smoking fish to the traditional | :18:20. | :18:22. | |
recipe for more than 100 years. We have the salmon at the bottom, the | :18:23. | :18:27. | |
other biggest Sony do most smoke. They will be in for 24 hours. The | :18:28. | :18:31. | |
haddock is higher up in the smokers. Four years ago, Grimsby's | :18:32. | :18:38. | |
traditionally smoked fish won an award. But they say the council is | :18:39. | :18:44. | |
not supported industry enough. It is simple things like seeing this is | :18:45. | :18:49. | |

trick. Grimsby is a lot larger than ours and the opportunity for them is | :19:30. | :19:34. | |
enormous. Not just an smoked fish, but also using other seafood | :19:35. | :19:38. | |
products. I am committed to getting as much out of tourism for the | :19:39. | :19:44. | |
borrower of knowledge. It is `` if it is through fish processing, we're | :19:45. | :19:48. | |

discovered the current leadership of the National Union of Mineworkers is | :20:05. | :20:07. | |
threatening to sue its former leader Arthur Scargill for just over | :20:08. | :20:10. | |
?100,000. The money was paid to cover legal bills run up by the | :20:11. | :20:13. | |
International Energy and Miners Organisation, of which mist Scargill | :20:14. | :20:18. | |
is president. The NUM has also stopped payments of ?20,000 a year | :20:19. | :20:21. | |
in subscriptions to the organisation. | :20:22. | :20:30. | |
The trouble happened when I was asked to justify paying that amount | :20:31. | :20:38. | |
of money and I asked to look at accounts and was refused to be | :20:39. | :20:43. | |
given. We'll do think that ?20,000 a year has been going? I have no idea. | :20:44. | :20:49. | |
That is why want to see the accounts. | :20:50. | :20:51. | |
In a statement, Mr Scargill told us the NUM had breached a decision of | :20:52. | :20:55. | |
its own conference by stopping the payments. He says the IEMO has | :20:56. | :20:57. | |
always presented accounts in accordance with the instruction of | :20:58. | :21:01. | |
its congress. And there's more on that story in a special Inside Out | :21:02. | :21:04. | |
investigation tonight on BBC One at 7.30pm. | :21:05. | :21:09. | |
A home tie in the quarterfinal of the FA Trophy is North Ferriby | :21:10. | :21:12. | |
United's reward for their 4`0 victory at Lincoln City. They'll now | :21:13. | :21:19. | |
play Gosport in the next round while Grimsby Town also have home | :21:20. | :21:22. | |
advantage. With all the football news, here's our sports reporter | :21:23. | :21:27. | |
Simon Clark. They have been playing on a | :21:28. | :21:31. | |
different planet this season, but a 4`0 victory at Lincoln City must be | :21:32. | :21:36. | |
one of the best in this history of North Ferriby United. It is given a | :21:37. | :21:41. | |
quarterfinal tie against Gosport. Gosport in the conference South. | :21:42. | :21:48. | |
They are not a team that is playing `` plying their trade at a higher | :21:49. | :21:52. | |
level. We have to consider home advantage is a great opportunity to | :21:53. | :21:58. | |
get to the semifinal. The draw for North Ferriby United against Gosport | :21:59. | :22:00. | |
means they have missed some of the bigger guns in the competition, | :22:01. | :22:02. | |
including Grimsby Town, who will play the winners of the Tamworth | :22:03. | :22:12. | |
`trolley replay. Hull City were having a more difficult time against | :22:13. | :22:16. | |
Chelsea in the Premier League. If it wasn't for Allan McGregor, | :22:17. | :22:21. | |
this could have been far worse. Time and again, Scotland's number one | :22:22. | :22:24. | |
came to the rescue with a number of fine saves from excellent Chelsea | :22:25. | :22:28. | |
play. In the end, he was blameless for the Chelsea goals. The first was | :22:29. | :22:36. | |
a splendid effort from Eden Hazard. The second near the end was struck | :22:37. | :22:41. | |
by Fernando Torres. The season will not be defined by games against | :22:42. | :22:46. | |
Chelsea. But over the last couple of months, especially against the big | :22:47. | :22:49. | |
boys, we have kept the ball better and played better as a team. Today, | :22:50. | :22:53. | |
first`half was OK, second`half, we will know will near posing a threat. | :22:54. | :23:00. | |
One of the special goals of the weekend came from Scunthorpe | :23:01. | :23:06. | |
United's Paul Hayes. Sign for a third spell, he kept United top of | :23:07. | :23:11. | |
League Two with the second. Some goal that, from Paul Hayes. Back to | :23:12. | :23:16. | |
the FA Trophy quarterfinals. They will be played on the 1st of | :23:17. | :23:19. | |
February, which could have an impact on the gate here. Just down the road | :23:20. | :23:24. | |
on the same day at the same time, Hull City will be playing Tottenham | :23:25. | :23:29. | |
Hotspur. Well done to them. | :23:30. | :23:38. | |
It Lincolnshire cricketer was one of the top performers as England's | :23:39. | :23:47. | |
woman won the Ashes. She scored a total of 103 in the victory. | :23:48. | :23:50. | |
Fantastic news. It has taken him four years and he's | :23:51. | :23:54. | |
covered thousands of miles in that time. Andrew Dowd has visited every | :23:55. | :24:00. | |
one of the 2,548 railway stations in Britain and he says Gainsborough's | :24:01. | :24:04. | |
central station is the worst one he visited. I've been talking to Andrew | :24:05. | :24:12. | |
about his visits and asked him what was wrong with Gainsborough. | :24:13. | :24:18. | |
Quite a lot of things, actually. It is inaccessible and could not give | :24:19. | :24:21. | |
your Friday. It was locked up. Only open on Saturday. It looked very | :24:22. | :24:26. | |
weedy, full of weeds and very unloved. That is not good news, is | :24:27. | :24:32. | |
it? What needs to be done to Gainsborough station, then? Better | :24:33. | :24:38. | |
services, maybe one in the morning and in the evening rather than all | :24:39. | :24:42. | |
on a Saturday. Bit of tell `` a bit of TLC as well. You are an expert. | :24:43. | :24:50. | |
What makes a good station? It would have to be staff, services, access | :24:51. | :24:56. | |
ability. For me personally, and is coughing on the platform. You're | :24:57. | :25:01. | |
going to the train station to train, not a coffee. You do look barrel | :25:02. | :25:11. | |
haven, don't you? Yes, I do. I am a big fan of not just visiting | :25:12. | :25:16. | |
stations, but exploring Britain. When you go a few metres away from | :25:17. | :25:23. | |
the station platform at Barrow Haven, it has the River Humber and | :25:24. | :25:29. | |
Humber Bridge in the background. You have all this information in your | :25:30. | :25:34. | |
bedroom. I do. It is on my computer ready for when they could be | :25:35. | :25:40. | |
published or make a book. You never know. I would love to read it. Very | :25:41. | :25:44. | |
good to have gone the programme. Thank you very much indeed. It has | :25:45. | :25:50. | |
been a pleasure. Andrew has been to every single railway station in the | :25:51. | :25:53. | |
country. Another study might want to comment | :25:54. | :25:58. | |
on. Is Andrew being unkind to Gainsborough station? He thinks it | :25:59. | :26:01. | |
is the worst in the country. Which would you vote as the best or worst | :26:02. | :26:05. | |
railway stations in Lincolnshire and East Yorkshire? The contact details | :26:06. | :26:14. | |
are on screen. Look forward to hearing from you on the subject of | :26:15. | :26:16. | |
railway stations. Let's get a recap of the national | :26:17. | :26:19. | |
and regional headlines. Local councils which back fracking | :26:20. | :26:22. | |
are promised more money despite concerns from green groups. | :26:23. | :26:24. | |
David Cameron visits Lincolnshire to give his support to the exploration | :26:25. | :26:33. | |
for shale gas. People can already see that this is a safe and | :26:34. | :26:35. | |
successful industry, employing local people. The Prime Minister talking | :26:36. | :26:40. | |
on the programme. Tomorrow's weather: Patchy fog | :26:41. | :26:43. | |
clearing then dry and bright with sunny spells, although cloud will | :26:44. | :26:45. | |
increase later with rain spreading east in the evening and overnight. | :26:46. | :26:47. | |
clearing Maximum temperature, five Celsius. | :26:48. | :26:55. | |
A big response on the subject of fracking. Philip on Twitter says, | :26:56. | :26:59. | |
where else will we get gas from when the North Sea is out? I would rather | :27:00. | :27:04. | |
be energy independent and dependent on Russia. Paul says we need things | :27:05. | :27:07. | |
like this in the area. We need the jobs. Barry says | :27:08. | :27:15. | |
fracking is part of the future. Would the naysayers Professor Cole | :27:16. | :27:18. | |
mile or nuclear power station? Fracking is safe and I know what I | :27:19. | :27:22. | |
would prefer. This is small`minded and India is small`minded and | :27:23. | :27:27. | |
India's, get real. `` this is small mindedness. | :27:28. | :27:34. | |
David Cameron knows it is dangerous but all he sees as profit for he and | :27:35. | :27:38. | |
his mates, not the local economy. Lots of messages on this subject. | :27:39. | :27:39. | |
