:00:00. > :00:10.Good evening and welcome to BBC Look North. The headlines tonight.
:00:11. > :00:23.Exercise more or risk an early death ` the warning to thousands of women
:00:24. > :00:24.classed as inactive. There will be more likely to be active as an

:00:59. > :01:04.Women in Hull risk dying young because they don't exercise enough,
:01:05. > :01:08.according to scientists. Figures show six out of ten women and five
:01:09. > :01:12.out of ten men in the city are classed as inactive. Today, the City
:01:13. > :01:16.Council started a four`year plan to improve fitness. It coincides with
:01:17. > :01:24.research that's found inactivity is a bigger risk to health than
:01:25. > :01:27.drinking and smoking. And it's a growing problem that is already
:01:28. > :01:34.costing the NHS more than ?1 billion a year. Jill Archbold reports.
:01:35. > :01:39.Separated by age, but United by exercise. Those in Hull who do it
:01:40. > :01:43.often are reducing their risk of disease or premature death. But the
:01:44. > :01:53.City Council is concerned about two thirds of their population not doing
:01:54. > :01:56.the recommended amount. Clearly, we need to invest, but we also need to
:01:57. > :02:02.make best use of the things we have already got. And that is part of
:02:03. > :02:09.this strategy. We have got some fantastic leisure facilities, and
:02:10. > :02:13.green spaces, in Hull, we want to see that used more often. In Hull,
:02:14. > :02:16.62% of women and 50% of men are classed as inactive, with more than
:02:17. > :02:19.a quarter of the population described as clinically obese.
:02:20. > :02:24.That's 4% higher than the national average. In a four year plan, the
:02:25. > :02:27.council have pledged to increase the number of people taking part in
:02:28. > :02:37.sport, starting with children like these. But do their families follow
:02:38. > :02:47.suit? My parents are quite lazy sometimes. My mum and dad are quite
:02:48. > :02:51.sporty. My dad plays golf. If you instil it from an early age, they
:02:52. > :02:56.will go on to be more likely to be active as an adult. The families had
:02:57. > :02:59.to be massively on board because they are the ones that are going to
:03:00. > :03:02.take the children to the activities and take time out. An aspiration
:03:03. > :03:06.too, to close a gender divide, and in a video which champions the
:03:07. > :03:13.plans, women who have made a career from sport. Thanks to the active
:03:14. > :03:17.women project, I am now in all`time paid implement, I have made lots of
:03:18. > :03:21.new friends and helped lots of people lose weight. There are signs
:03:22. > :03:23.of positive change. 70% of those who rode in the Sky Ride continued to
:03:24. > :03:26.cycle. But can increasing participation in Hull help reduce
:03:27. > :03:33.the ?10 billion cost of England's inactivity?
:03:34. > :03:38.Earlier, I spoke to Hull West and Hessle MP Alan Johnson, who was the
:03:39. > :03:44.Health Secretary between 2007 and 2009. I asked him if there was any
:03:45. > :03:48.evidence to show councils could get people active.
:03:49. > :03:50.Well, councils have now taken over responsibility for public health,
:03:51. > :03:53.and being active is really important because you do not want to devote
:03:54. > :03:58.everything to hospital care, which is too late, because people are ill.
:03:59. > :04:01.You want to stop them being ill in the first place, and local
:04:02. > :04:05.authorities are well placed to help with that. Six out of ten women,
:04:06. > :04:08.five out of ten men, never exercise in Hull, does that matter? It
:04:09. > :04:13.matters a lot, because physical activity, along with diet, are
:04:14. > :04:16.crucial in this. People who are physically active are 50% less
:04:17. > :04:20.likely to get one of the major chronic diseases like cancer or
:04:21. > :04:24.cardiovascular disease. Won't people think, "It's up to me"? I am one of
:04:25. > :04:30.the five out of ten men there. Should people be told by their
:04:31. > :04:34.council to go and exercise? If they want to join a gym, they will join a
:04:35. > :04:37.gym. This is the Director of Public Health, and councils are now
:04:38. > :04:41.responsible for public health, saying, look, we're going to make it
:04:42. > :04:44.easier for you to be active. That is a long way from ordering people to
:04:45. > :04:48.be active. It sounds very similar to me. In other words, get out there
:04:49. > :04:52.and do something! The Council Leader will not be knocking on the door
:04:53. > :04:55.saying, "You haven't done your ten minute walking today!" That is not
:04:56. > :04:58.going to happen, Peter. Your leader, Ed Miliband, says physical activity
:04:59. > :05:01.and us living healthier lives is going to be one of his priorities.
:05:02. > :05:06.He has been accused of wanting to nanny people, even by some MPs in
:05:07. > :05:09.your own party. I think all that criticism of the nanny state went a
:05:10. > :05:13.long time ago. If we hadn't taken action to try to discourage people
:05:14. > :05:16.from smoking, the NHS would have probably been unaffordable by now.
:05:17. > :05:19.And there is a realisation that you cannot go on spending money on the
:05:20. > :05:22.outcome of poor health, without trying to do something about
:05:23. > :05:28.stopping that situation in the first place. One of these inactive people
:05:29. > :05:34.watching telly tonight, what do you say? I say you will have a 20 to 30%
:05:35. > :05:37.greater chance of dying prematurely and a 50% better chance of
:05:38. > :05:40.contracting a serious chronic illness if you don't get out and
:05:41. > :05:47.have some physical activity in your life. Do you belong to a gym? I
:05:48. > :05:51.don't belong to a gym. I run, it is much cheaper! You do not have to
:05:52. > :05:55.belong to a gym, it is about getting off the bus, stopping early and
:05:56. > :05:58.walking the rest of the way, etc. Mr Johnson, good to see you, thank you
:05:59. > :06:02.very much indeed. So, is it up to councils to try to
:06:03. > :06:07.make us active, if it improves health and saves the NHS money? Or
:06:08. > :06:13.is it up to the individual? Do you feel you are being now need into
:06:14. > :06:21.doing activity? Here are the contact details.
:06:22. > :06:31.What do you think of those figures you have heard ayes `` heard?
:06:32. > :06:39.A lorry driver has had an incredible escape after his lorry crashed on
:06:40. > :06:42.the M18 in East Yorkshire. The lorry slid out of control on the
:06:43. > :06:47.southbound carriageway after a tyre burst, causing it to fall off the
:06:48. > :06:50.Rawcliffe Bridge and set on fire. Crispin Rolfe is live in the
:06:51. > :06:52.newsroom. Crispin, how is the driver?
:06:53. > :06:56.He escaped without serious injuries, but as we saw in that picture, it
:06:57. > :06:59.could have been a different story. Humberside Police were called just
:07:00. > :07:02.after 3:30pm yesterday afternoon to the M18 southbound motorway, just
:07:03. > :07:09.after where it branches off from the M62. As you can see on this map,
:07:10. > :07:14.it's just where the road crosses a series of waterways. The area is
:07:15. > :07:19.called Rawcliffe Bridge. Officers say a tyre on the lorry burst. That
:07:20. > :07:23.caused the driver to lose control and his lorry strayed across the
:07:24. > :07:29.road, crashed over a bridge and fell some distance, stopping just short
:07:30. > :07:34.of a canal. It got worse because the vehicle, which was carrying
:07:35. > :07:38.fertiliser, then set on fire. The driver, who is 61, was taken in an
:07:39. > :07:43.Air Ambulance to Leeds General Infirmary. He was treated for cuts,
:07:44. > :07:49.bruises and a dislocated shoulder. The junction was closed for 12
:07:50. > :07:59.hours. We don't know who he is, but it's a routine work journey he won't
:08:00. > :08:03.forget. Amazing story, thank you very much.
:08:04. > :08:05.The police have detained four suspected illegal immigrants,
:08:06. > :08:08.including two children aged ten and two, after they were heard banging
:08:09. > :08:15.from the inside of a refrigerated lorry in Spalding. They were all
:08:16. > :08:19.from Iran. The two`year`old was taken to hospital, suffering from
:08:20. > :08:23.the effects of the cold. A man who killed his mother at her
:08:24. > :08:26.home in Dunholme near Lincoln while suffering a violent epileptic fit
:08:27. > :08:31.has been cleared of murder. A jury at Lincoln Crown Court decided Nigel
:08:32. > :08:36.Constable was insane. He now faces being detained indefinitely in a
:08:37. > :08:39.secure hospital. The new Bishop of Grimsby has been
:08:40. > :08:43.announced. The Reverend Canon Dr David Court is currently a vicar in
:08:44. > :08:46.Norfolk. The 55`year`old says he's honoured and excited to be working
:08:47. > :08:58.in Lincolnshire. He'll start work in September. We wish all the very
:08:59. > :09:01.best. When politicians climbed on a stage
:09:02. > :09:04.in the Lincolnshire town of Horncastle this morning for an
:09:05. > :09:08.hour`long BBC radio debate, there was only one subject they wanted to
:09:09. > :09:11.talk about. Immigration. It's a big issue in the run`up to the European
:09:12. > :09:13.elections in two weeks. Our political editor, Tim Iredale, was
:09:14. > :09:15.there. On a damp and drizzly day in
:09:16. > :09:19.Horncastle's Market Place, the candidates hoping to become Euro MPs
:09:20. > :09:22.for the East Midlands region were trying to offer the voters of
:09:23. > :09:25.Lincolnshire some blue sky thinking. Are there too many EU citizens
:09:26. > :09:26.coming to the UK? Listening in Boston was Jurate,
:09:27. > :09:56.immigration by other. We dealing with that problem. We have nothing
:09:57. > :09:59.against migrant workers coming into Lincolnshire on a four`month work
:10:00. > :10:05.permit or whatever is appropriate. What we do not want is people who
:10:06. > :10:09.come here, drift around and end up sleeping in doorways. As I fear they
:10:10. > :10:14.do in Boston. Other candidates offered a more positive view on the
:10:15. > :10:16.impact of migration on Lincolnshire. I have spoken to farmers here
:10:17. > :10:18.saying, why do you employ with Iranians and Latvians to bring the
:10:19. > :10:44.not have any expectation of migrant workers, they need to be paid the
:10:45. > :10:49.Minimum Wage. We need to stop the gangmaster is exploiting them. I am
:10:50. > :10:53.an immigrant. I think working `` I have been working here, I am
:10:54. > :10:58.integrated and I take offence. Iron and people are worried, I completely
:10:59. > :11:02.do. But it is not the immigrants who are the problem. It is a banking
:11:03. > :11:05.crisis that caused the recession. In Boston, Lithuanian teacher Jurate
:11:06. > :11:14.wasn't impressed with the tone of the debate. We are the same people
:11:15. > :11:20.as all other people. We work honestly, until we work hard and pay
:11:21. > :11:30.taxes, why did we have to be called migrants? Why does everybody speak
:11:31. > :11:34.about us as if we are different? The men and women hoping to become east
:11:35. > :11:42.midlands MEPs have had their say. You can see a full list of
:11:43. > :11:52.candidates on the BBC website. Those elections are in a couple of weeks.
:11:53. > :11:56.Still ahead, for 50 years, they have been waiting to passers`by, but
:11:57. > :12:02.could the end be in sight for the Leven bears? Everybody waves as they
:12:03. > :12:14.go past. What would it be like if they were not there? No fun.
:12:15. > :12:20.Tonight's photograph is of linking to, with some big clouds in the
:12:21. > :12:26.background. Taken by Brian Jeffery. Thank you for the picture. Every
:12:27. > :12:31.week, I go to the same petrol station and the sky pesters me, will
:12:32. > :12:41.you come in with me one week? That is all he wants. `` the sky. `` this
:12:42. > :12:46.man. Give and take! Some news about some big white clouds.
:12:47. > :12:51.There will be a fair few of them as we go through the week. Unsettled is
:12:52. > :12:56.certainly the theme. Some inkling it might settle down towards the end of
:12:57. > :12:59.next week. It will not be a wash`out, there will be some
:13:00. > :13:04.sunshine, but there will be a fair few showers. Some of them will be
:13:05. > :13:09.heavy, possibly thundery. All down to low pressure dominating. Also, a
:13:10. > :13:12.band of rain overnight tonight. Today we have had some heavy
:13:13. > :13:18.showers. They have now by and large fizzled out. A dry evening with
:13:19. > :13:22.spells of sunshine. Any show is dying out, it will be dry into this
:13:23. > :13:26.evening and fine. Later, a band of rain will spread from the South
:13:27. > :13:30.West. There could be some heavy rain, but not a cold night,
:13:31. > :13:39.temperatures down to around nine or ten. But it will be fairly blustery.
:13:40. > :13:45.The sun will rise at 5:09am. Here are the times of high water.
:13:46. > :13:50.Tomorrow morning, it will get off to a sunny start. Lots of rain around.
:13:51. > :13:53.Outbreaks of rain will clear the way northwards and it will brighten up
:13:54. > :13:57.with spells of sunshine. But we will also see a few showers, cropping up
:13:58. > :14:01.through the course of the day. Some of them will be slow`moving, heavy
:14:02. > :14:08.and thundery. Some faces may get quite a lot of rain. Temperatures
:14:09. > :14:17.are doing quite well, 16 or 17 Celsius. A gentle breeze from the
:14:18. > :14:21.South West. More breezy as we head into Sunday. Sunday, another day of
:14:22. > :14:26.bright and sunny spells but also a scattering of what could be heavy
:14:27. > :14:28.and thundery showers. The unsettled theme lasts into next week, sunny
:14:29. > :14:36.spells and scattered showers. spells and scattered
:14:37. > :14:40.I think you are on for a discount their! I cannot believe that.
:14:41. > :14:43.See you on Monday. Wheelie bins are one of the most
:14:44. > :14:48.complained about issues in modern Britain. And in one part of Hull,
:14:49. > :14:50.people are so sick of them permanently being left on the
:14:51. > :14:58.street, blocking pavements, they've started a petition demanding action
:14:59. > :15:01.from the council. Some cities trialled fines for people who don't
:15:02. > :15:05.return their bin to their property, but in this area there is no
:15:06. > :15:09.penalty. I've been speaking to an expert on good manners, who says
:15:10. > :15:15.leaving out your bin is symptom of a "me, me, me generation". First,
:15:16. > :15:18.Leanne Brown reports. From the street and back onto your
:15:19. > :15:23.property ` that's what you're supposed to do when your bins have
:15:24. > :15:32.been emptied. But it's claimed many residents in the Avenues area of
:15:33. > :15:37.Hull aren't doing that. There `` it can be a bit messy if they are not
:15:38. > :15:44.emptied often. Do you always take away your bin? Always, taken in the
:15:45. > :15:50.same day they come. You put it in your back way. A local campaign
:15:51. > :15:56.group wants action and they say they not only look unsightly, but they
:15:57. > :16:00.are unsafe. We are concerned they are causing a hazard to people in
:16:01. > :16:04.the street. So imagine if you are a mother trying to push a pram down
:16:05. > :16:07.the street or someone who uses a wheelchair or something like that,
:16:08. > :16:10.it must be terrible to weave your way in and out. Elsewhere in the
:16:11. > :16:14.country ` take Leicester, for example ` they issue fines of ?110
:16:15. > :16:17.to people who leave their bins in the street. In parts of Lancashire,
:16:18. > :16:21.like Preston, your bin could be confiscated. And in London last
:16:22. > :16:31.year, a man had to pay ?15,000 in legal costs after blocking his
:16:32. > :16:37.neighbour's driveway with his bin. But at this blind institute, they
:16:38. > :16:40.say fining people is not the answer. It is much more about educating
:16:41. > :16:45.people and people having more thought and awareness. We have used
:16:46. > :16:49.something like simulation spectacles, where people can
:16:50. > :16:52.simulate various eye conditions. It really is quite opposing when you
:16:53. > :16:56.put those on and you realise how difficult it is. Harry is one of the
:16:57. > :17:02.members who booked into a bend this morning. I have cut myself on a bin
:17:03. > :17:06.and on a wing mirror, there is too much of it. Especially along the
:17:07. > :17:12.side streets, where the pavements are particularly narrow. They are a
:17:13. > :17:15.menace. At the moment with no reprimand for leaving your bin out,
:17:16. > :17:20.it is hoped people will put them back where they belong. We will be
:17:21. > :17:23.asking for your thoughts on this in a moment.
:17:24. > :17:27.Leanne is on a street where bins have been left out. Will the council
:17:28. > :17:32.listen to the campaigners who want the bins moved?
:17:33. > :17:37.Well, Hull City Council say they are happy to meet with the action group
:17:38. > :17:40.to discuss their concerns. But they say they have already introduced
:17:41. > :17:44.several schemes, like the identification and numbering of
:17:45. > :17:51.beans. To put this into context, last year they received 378
:17:52. > :17:55.completes about bins, but with 7.8 Lee and collections, they say it is
:17:56. > :18:00.a small issue for them. `` 7.8 million. But they say they are
:18:01. > :18:01.including more people to put `` encouraging more people to put back
:18:02. > :18:04.their bins. I've been speaking to William
:18:05. > :18:08.Hanson, who's an expert in etiquette and good manners. I asked him what
:18:09. > :18:11.he thought about people who leave their bins out. I think these people
:18:12. > :18:15.are being very selfish. We are living in quite a "me, me, me"
:18:16. > :18:18.society and good manners are selfless, they are about other
:18:19. > :18:21.people. Taking your bins in and looking after your part of the road
:18:22. > :18:25.is part of your responsibility. What do you think about these people who
:18:26. > :18:30.think it is fine just to leave the bins out, not put them away? It is a
:18:31. > :18:34.little bit arrogant of them to think they can do what they want. If they
:18:35. > :18:37.don't like the rules that come with suburban living, don't live in
:18:38. > :18:41.suburbia, go and live in the middle of the sticks! OK, you are the
:18:42. > :18:44.master. How do we go about telling our neighbours, somebody we might
:18:45. > :18:48.not actually know or somebody who might be selfish, how do we go about
:18:49. > :18:51.telling them to put the bins away and get their act together? Well,
:18:52. > :18:55.don't go in with all guns blazing. Go in and be perfectly pleasant and
:18:56. > :18:59.charming, a nice, big smile to them, ask them if they could possibly move
:19:00. > :19:02.them and point out the rules in a nice, unpatronising way. Hopefully,
:19:03. > :19:17.they will do that. If needs be, the homeowners' association needs to get
:19:18. > :19:19.in contact with them. Do you have some bad bin neighbours? There is
:19:20. > :19:25.the e`mail address to get in touch with. You can also text us.
:19:26. > :19:29.New penguins have attracted huge crowds to The Deep aquarium in Hull
:19:30. > :19:34.since their arrival in March. There have been regular long queues to get
:19:35. > :19:41.in, with visitor numbers up by 50%. Now The Deep has picked up more
:19:42. > :19:44.penguins. You have to be old to get that one! Caroline Bilton met their
:19:45. > :19:50.keepers to see how they are settling in to a life thousands of miles from
:19:51. > :19:53.their natural home. Settling into their new home, the new Penguins
:19:54. > :20:01.were certainly showing no signs of jet lag today after their 5000 mile
:20:02. > :20:08.journey from Texas. You are still playing with the ball. Somewhere in

:20:52. > :20:57.We have been to see them before. But we thought we would come back again
:20:58. > :21:03.to see them. They are adorable! We spent about ?600,000 and we have
:21:04. > :21:06.made that back already and raised ?40,000 for the Penguin
:21:07. > :21:12.conservation. So, that has been a great payback. On average, they get
:21:13. > :21:16.a couple of feeds a day. About 20 of these each feed.
:21:17. > :21:21.Attention is not just paid to their diet. Time is also spent every day
:21:22. > :21:26.providing them with entertainment. Eleanor is in there at the moment
:21:27. > :21:33.with actor. It is like a little Red Bull on a piece of string. `` with
:21:34. > :21:36.Hector. `` red ball. Some of the penguins really enjoy. So the family
:21:37. > :21:40.is complete and the penguins will spend the next 30 days in
:21:41. > :21:45.quarantine. The next adventure will be the opening of the doors to their
:21:46. > :21:50.personal balcony, overlooking the River Humber. They did not have that
:21:51. > :21:53.in Texas! Back to last night's story on the
:21:54. > :21:57.mother who says benefit changes mean she's now being charged for the
:21:58. > :22:04.spare room in her council house that is used by her son when he's not
:22:05. > :22:08.away with the RAF. A large response. Carole says, "As an ex`Forces wife
:22:09. > :22:11.and a mother of a serviceman, this annoys me. Service personnel should
:22:12. > :22:14.be exempt from the bedroom tax. The accommodation when they're away is
:22:15. > :22:18.not home." Rachel says, "I work in housing for
:22:19. > :22:22.a local authority and the bedroom tax is the best idea this Government
:22:23. > :22:26.has had. A spare room costs about ?11 a week and if you are on full
:22:27. > :22:29.housing benefit, that is the only rent you have to pay."
:22:30. > :22:33.Chris says, "The bedroom tax does not make better use of the council
:22:34. > :22:37.housing stock. We have been on the waiting list for a smaller property
:22:38. > :22:43.for two years. But we are forced to pay for spare bedrooms that we are
:22:44. > :22:47.willing to give up." Reference thereto the fact there are
:22:48. > :22:50.not enough properties. Thank you very much for all of those.
:22:51. > :22:54.The Hull FC coach, Lee Radford, says he's had a tough week "picking up
:22:55. > :22:57.his players" after their defeat by Wakefield on Sunday. His side host
:22:58. > :23:00.last season's Super League champions Wigan at the KC Stadium this
:23:01. > :23:04.evening. There's currently a four point difference between the two
:23:05. > :23:08.teams in the table. And there'll be commentary of that
:23:09. > :23:14.game on BBC Radio Humberside. That's Hull FC v Wigan tonight. And
:23:15. > :23:20.tomorrow evening it's Hull KR at Salford, where kick`off is at 6pm.
:23:21. > :23:23.The Hull City manager, Steve Bruce, admits his players have taken their
:23:24. > :23:27.eye off the ball as they look forward to the FA Cup final. In a
:23:28. > :23:29.rare outspoken moment, Bruce admitted recent performances, like
:23:30. > :23:32.this defeat to Manchester United, had been affected by the prospect of
:23:33. > :23:37.meeting Arsenal next week. That's even though Premier League safety
:23:38. > :23:42.has been secured. The big thing I've got to stress is that we still want
:23:43. > :23:45.to make sure we get a result against Everton. Because as I've said
:23:46. > :23:48.repeatedly, a couple of places up the division can mean another player
:23:49. > :23:52.next year, so it's still all to play for.
:23:53. > :24:00.You can hear the game on BBC Radio Humberside's FM frequency this
:24:01. > :24:04.Sunday. For 50 years, two stuffed bears who
:24:05. > :24:08.sit at the window of a house at Leven in East Yorkshire have
:24:09. > :24:12.attracted a small army of fans. It was a tradition for children to wave
:24:13. > :24:17.at the bears on car journeys to the seaside, and people even sent them
:24:18. > :24:26.Christmas cards. But now their house is up for sale and their future is
:24:27. > :24:30.uncertain, as Sarah Walton reports. Held up with a piece of string `
:24:31. > :24:37.these bears have been waving their fluffy paws from the landing window
:24:38. > :24:43.for 48 years. Teddy bears were originally put in the window in
:24:44. > :24:47.1966, when this House was built. As the children were travelling with
:24:48. > :24:51.their parents after the coast, you would notice them in the window and
:24:52. > :24:54.they would wave to them. It is not just the children, it is their
:24:55. > :25:00.parents as well, and grandparents. They are still waiting! This was
:25:01. > :25:02.Christmas 1991. They've captured the imagination of children everywhere.
:25:03. > :25:09.They've even received letters and cards addressed to them. When they
:25:10. > :25:14.first came, one of my sons had a small bear and we put that in the
:25:15. > :25:18.window. We got a card, congratulating us on our expanding
:25:19. > :25:21.family. One time, we took them down when we were decorating and we got a
:25:22. > :25:26.card welcoming them back. They really have become a part of village
:25:27. > :25:30.life. They have just always been there. They are lovely. Everybody
:25:31. > :25:36.waves as they go past. I cracked what would it be like if they were
:25:37. > :25:40.not there? It would be awful. My children and grandchildren have
:25:41. > :25:44.grown up with the teddy bear house. I have distorted that has been the
:25:45. > :25:48.teddy bear house. `` I have always thought of that. But their future is
:25:49. > :25:52.in jeopardy, because the house is up for sale So if the right buyer is
:25:53. > :25:56.found for the house, the bears will be still be waving back at drivers
:25:57. > :25:59.for many years to come and stay in what has been their home for five
:26:00. > :26:02.decades. I hope they will keep them because it is a tradition, don't
:26:03. > :26:04.interfere with anybody's rules or bedrooms or anything. I hope they
:26:05. > :26:07.do. We will try and talk them into keeping it because it would upset a
:26:08. > :26:10.lot of people if they went. So if the right buyer is found, the Bears
:26:11. > :26:13.will still be waving back at drivers for many years to come, and stay in
:26:14. > :26:19.what has been their home for five decades.
:26:20. > :26:23.The producer just told me he used a wave at the teddy bears as well. He
:26:24. > :26:30.was 28 at the time! If you have a story you think we should know
:26:31. > :26:33.about, send us an e`mail. Let's get a recap of the national
:26:34. > :26:36.and regional headlines. Rolf Harris goes on trial for
:26:37. > :26:39.alleged sexual offences against young girls.
:26:40. > :26:42.Exercise more or risk an early death ` the warning to thousands of women
:26:43. > :26:45.classed as inactive. Tomorrow's weather ` a cloudy, wet
:26:46. > :26:48.and breezy start. Sunny spells developing, but a showery day, some
:26:49. > :27:00.of which could be thundery. Top Temperature 13 Celsius.
:27:01. > :27:04.Response on the subject of fitness and whether we should join the gym
:27:05. > :27:09.and get active. Margaret Spalding says, I walk a fair bit, I would
:27:10. > :27:14.love to go to a gym but living on pension credit, it is impossible.
:27:15. > :27:18.From Peter, too many people do not exercise enough. The council should
:27:19. > :27:21.have a free gym at weekends to encourage young and old to go to the
:27:22. > :27:26.gym. We were also talking about bins. Phil says, it should be the
:27:27. > :27:29.duty of the dustbin men to take the bins out around the back and not
:27:30. > :27:34.that of the customers. They used to collect and return to the back door.
:27:35. > :27:43.Finally, this is from Mark, who is a bin man and he says, a tenor, we get
:27:44. > :27:47.the blame for the bins left out. `` ?10. See you on Monday, take care.
