:00:00. > :00:00.BBC News channel. Now Good evening and welcome to

:00:00. > :00:00.BBC Look North. Anti`wind farm campaigners say

:00:00. > :00:25.East Yorkshire has reached We are concerned about the

:00:26. > :00:29.encroachment of these monstdrs on the horizon.

:00:30. > :00:32.A yachtsman feared missing in the North Sea has been found

:00:33. > :00:37.Final flight ` is this the last time the Vulcan will be seen

:00:38. > :00:45.On the buses ` How drivers from East Yorkshire

:00:46. > :01:05.It has been a warm and humid day. How is it looking tomorrow?

:01:06. > :01:09.An East Yorkshire MP has told Look North that he would put a stop to

:01:10. > :01:13.any more wind turbines being built on shore, despite his Government

:01:14. > :01:18.David Davis, who represents Haltemprice `nd

:01:19. > :01:23.Howden, will speak with anth`wind farm protestors who are org`nising

:01:24. > :01:29.They're calling on the Government to halt the `pproval

:01:30. > :01:32.of further wind farm development, and say that the county has reached

:01:33. > :01:37.We'll be hearing from David Davis in a moment, but first this report

:01:38. > :01:41.from our Environment Correspondent Paul Murphy.

:01:42. > :01:44.In Ellerker village hall, preparations for tomorrow's protest.

:01:45. > :01:47.This is one of many communities earmarked for wind turbine

:01:48. > :01:52.development, an industry with an increasingly controversi`l

:01:53. > :02:00.It's got the highest densitx and our communities are being decim`ted

:02:01. > :02:05.There are already 62 turbinds over 50 metres high in the countx.

:02:06. > :02:14.In addition to the large machines, more than 80 smaller turbinds,

:02:15. > :02:18.less than 50 metres in height, have already been given planning

:02:19. > :02:26.What started here on the proposition to put thred

:02:27. > :02:30.turbines just behind the village has actually expanded now,

:02:31. > :02:34.due to the fact these things are proliferating all over the county,

:02:35. > :02:38.and we have a lot of parishds that have joined in with us.

:02:39. > :02:41.More than 90 turbine applic`tions have been rejected by local

:02:42. > :02:45.councillors, only to be uphdld by national government planners

:02:46. > :02:49.I've lost count of the numbdr of times our decisions, reftsals,

:02:50. > :02:53.have been turned around and have been allowed.

:02:54. > :02:56.That has been deeply frustr`ting for the council and quite costly for

:02:57. > :03:00.the east riding council taxpayer because they are paying to take

:03:01. > :03:07.You only need to walk up into east Yorkshire a bit to get a sense of

:03:08. > :03:13.They are dotted across the landscape.

:03:14. > :03:16.It is fair to say that in the communities where thdy are

:03:17. > :03:21.sited, wind turbines continte to divide opinion.

:03:22. > :03:25.That's because developers offer money as

:03:26. > :03:29.It can run into many millions of pounds and here at Sancton it

:03:30. > :03:33.has included a new village hall and children's play area.

:03:34. > :03:36.If wind farm are going to affect the public greatly,

:03:37. > :03:46.But certainly if not, as we can see, as it has been proved,

:03:47. > :03:51.there can be a lot of benefhts for the community, the vast majority

:03:52. > :03:56.The government says the UK needs onshore wind f`rms

:03:57. > :04:00.in order to reduce carbon elissions and the threat of global warming.

:04:01. > :04:04.But these protesters believd that mission has gone too far in

:04:05. > :04:12.Earlier I spoke to the MP for Haltemprice and Howden David Davis,

:04:13. > :04:16.who'll be talking to protestors tomorrow, and asked if he agrees

:04:17. > :04:24.We've had huge numbers of approvals on wind farms hn

:04:25. > :04:27.East Yorkshire, most of thel over the heads of the council.

:04:28. > :04:30.Most of them were given an appeal and it is pretty clear,

:04:31. > :04:33.so far, until last year, thd appeal authority were given enough credit,

:04:34. > :04:45.As a general question, do you think turbines are a good and relhable

:04:46. > :04:56.Once I was told by somebody who advises the ministry,

:04:57. > :05:00.he said what they needed most on the coldest days of the xear you

:05:01. > :05:07.So, they don't work when we need them.

:05:08. > :05:10.What do you say to the people watching who say these things are

:05:11. > :05:17.You just don't want them in the posh countryside of east Yorkshire.

:05:18. > :05:22.Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

:05:23. > :05:30.One of my constituents is on antidepressants because

:05:31. > :05:35.Not all the time the wind comes in from that direction.

:05:36. > :05:49.People come there for the qtiet understated...

:05:50. > :05:54.Frankly I wouldn't build anx more at the moment.

:05:55. > :05:56.We have got more than enough to meet the requirements

:05:57. > :06:02.90, I think, is the figure that has gone to government,

:06:03. > :06:10.If you look at the statistics for this year, the first quarter of the

:06:11. > :06:13.year, from about one in six being turned down, it is now a half.

:06:14. > :06:18.Now the government have clocked onto the fact we need to put

:06:19. > :06:25.Because you are a troublemaker, aren't you?

:06:26. > :06:28.I'd been described that way sometimes.

:06:29. > :06:32.I'll be there to speak to them, encourage them.

:06:33. > :06:40.We've got around loads of wind farms,

:06:41. > :06:52.Let us know what you think about this story.

:06:53. > :06:55.Will the campaigners have any success by protesting?

:06:56. > :06:57.Do the Government need to change their policy on allowing wind

:06:58. > :07:28.You can see more on that story on Sunday Politics this Sunday

:07:29. > :07:37.The moment a yachtsmen knew he was safd after

:07:38. > :07:57.Five people who are part of a gang selling illegal red diesel have been

:07:58. > :08:02.sentenced to a total of 19 xears in prison. The conspiracy organised by

:08:03. > :08:10.a pensioner evaded an estim`ted ?5 million in duty and tax.

:08:11. > :08:18.This pensioner of 72 in bad health, carer for those elderly wifd, now

:08:19. > :08:23.facing a sentence of seven xears in prison. The punishment for `

:08:24. > :08:28.ringleader who used his connections in farming to organise the hllegal

:08:29. > :08:34.selling of red diesel and sdtting up companies to hide VAT fraud. During

:08:35. > :08:38.sentencing, he kept his eyes at his feet while his honour Judge Jackson

:08:39. > :08:44.described the conspiracy as sophisticated and that he h`d been

:08:45. > :08:48.at the very centre of it. Hd criticised his attempts to pass

:08:49. > :08:55.blame during the trial, describing him as the controller and prime

:08:56. > :08:59.mover. It was a sophisticatdd and persistent crime that went on over a

:09:00. > :09:07.number of years. I think it justified the sentences givdn on a

:09:08. > :09:11.given it mattered towards ?4 million defrauded. Diesel is used in

:09:12. > :09:16.agricultural machinery and hs cheaper than ordinary diesel found

:09:17. > :09:29.in forecourts. It is estimated that the cost around six in ?1 mhllion a

:09:30. > :09:32.year in lost taxes. `` ?600 million. Two other people were sentenced as

:09:33. > :09:39.well. They were doing four xears each. His stepson and anothdr

:09:40. > :09:45.serving lesser sentences for their involvement. The red diesel was at

:09:46. > :09:51.times cleverly hidden using adapted fuel tanks which appeared to contain

:09:52. > :09:56.regular diesel but when checked contained both. As we startdd to

:09:57. > :10:01.look at the different tanks we were initially thinking it was going to

:10:02. > :10:07.be a small`scale operation, very locally and had no concept of what

:10:08. > :10:11.was going to come. The investigation lasted into three years and we were

:10:12. > :10:17.amazed at the scale that was revealed. This six years th`t hid

:10:18. > :10:24.behind a carousel of fraudulent companies, evading an estim`ted ?5

:10:25. > :10:25.million in duty and tax. Denied they leave York Crown Court to sdrve a

:10:26. > :10:30.total of 19 years in prison. The engineering firm Siemens is

:10:31. > :10:32.starting to recruit for its new multi`million pound

:10:33. > :10:34.development in Hull. The company announced

:10:35. > :10:37.in March it would be building a wind turbine manufacturing plant at two

:10:38. > :10:39.separate sites in East Yorkshire. Two posts have been advertised

:10:40. > :10:42.for the team to start developing It's expected one thousand

:10:43. > :10:47.jobs will be created. Earlier today a yachtsman from

:10:48. > :10:50.East Yorkshire ` who it was feared had gone missing in the North Sea `

:10:51. > :10:54.was found safe and well 69`year old Charles Pickering,

:10:55. > :10:59.from Wetwang, set out from Germany last wdek in

:11:00. > :11:02.his 17`foot yacht Equinox and was These pictures show

:11:03. > :11:07.his rescue earlier today. His wife alerted

:11:08. > :11:10.the coastguards after she h`dn't An appeal even went out on the

:11:11. > :11:15.BBC Radio Four's Shipping Forecast. Eventually Mr Pickering set

:11:16. > :11:17.off a distress beacon on his yacht this morning

:11:18. > :11:24.and was picked up shortly afterwards I'm pleased to say Charles

:11:25. > :11:35.joins me now from his home. How much trouble were you in? The

:11:36. > :11:42.electrics on the boat had gone dead so I couldn't do anything about it.

:11:43. > :11:50.It took me four hours to an`lyse. Were you not worried? No. I wasn't

:11:51. > :11:54.worried. It is a good boat `nd the thing is a boat always takes care of

:11:55. > :12:01.you. It never lets the crew down, it is the crew who let the bow down. I

:12:02. > :12:10.gather you didn't get any sleep No, not for six days. That is

:12:11. > :12:18.extraordinary. This morning, this begin. What did you do? I attempted

:12:19. > :12:22.to start the boat, because ly master had broken which I couldn't

:12:23. > :12:30.replace. I had nothing for ht. Quite simply, ie attempted to started so I

:12:31. > :12:37.thought, this is silly. In embarrassment I activated its and

:12:38. > :12:46.went to work on the housebo`t which is hard. What did you think this

:12:47. > :12:57.morning when and helicopter approached you? Total surprhse

:12:58. > :13:04.because I didn't know who it was. Were you embarrassed or surprise?

:13:05. > :13:12.Totally embarrassed. I never expected to happen to rely on the

:13:13. > :13:19.emergency services. How do xou feel tonight? When you got home, did your

:13:20. > :13:28.wife give you a ticking off? A bending would not be the right word.

:13:29. > :13:37.I will sleep in the spare room. Your message to fellow yachtsmen. Always

:13:38. > :13:41.take time to think. If I had thought, I would have got that ended

:13:42. > :13:49.working. Unbeknown to me, they were looking for me already. A vdry

:13:50. > :13:57.honest answer. It is good to see you back, Charles. You need to get some

:13:58. > :14:03.speed, but you look quite wdll. I haven't shaved either. You look in

:14:04. > :14:07.good shape. Good night, Charles We salute the rescue services who did a

:14:08. > :14:11.great job. Leaving Lincolnshire `

:14:12. > :14:16.is this the final flight And the East Yorkshire bus drivers

:14:17. > :14:29.becoming stars of the small screen. Tim Paulus took this

:14:30. > :14:51.of a Steam loco at the Lincolnshire Let's get the forecasts. Many things

:14:52. > :14:56.on this weekend. It has been quite humid today, much is the sale

:14:57. > :15:01.tomorrow. Tomorrow morning we start off on a cloudy note, but it will

:15:02. > :15:10.brighten up as we had Thursday, because of this week 's front. In

:15:11. > :15:15.between the two fronts, tomorrow we should see some good spells of

:15:16. > :15:20.sunshine. Today has been fine. It has been mostly dry. There has been

:15:21. > :15:24.some spells of warm sunshind but it has been humid. There has bden some

:15:25. > :15:31.cloud roll in from the codes. It will continue to do so this evening

:15:32. > :15:37.and overnight. A muggy feelhng too tonight. Temperatures no lower than

:15:38. > :15:48.14 degrees. Tomorrow morning the sun will rise at 4:46am, setting at

:15:49. > :15:53.9:30am. So, a bit of early start, feeling uncomfortable tonight.

:15:54. > :15:59.Tomorrow morning we start to get a break from the west, so we will see

:16:00. > :16:03.clouds breaking with warm spells of sunshine. As it comes, it could

:16:04. > :16:10.trigger some showers. They will be few and far between but there is

:16:11. > :16:16.that risk. Temperatures tomorrow we'll get to 24 degrees. Just ever

:16:17. > :16:21.so slightly cooler along thd coasts. You can see the front furthdr out to

:16:22. > :16:26.the west. That will show its hand as we head through tomorrow evdning.

:16:27. > :16:31.Cloud will increase from thd west as we head through tomorrow. Wd have

:16:32. > :16:38.the rain tomorrow and into Sunday. It will brighten up and it will be

:16:39. > :16:43.highs of 21. Have a good wedkend if you have something planned. If you

:16:44. > :16:48.have any pictures you are proud of, send them in.

:16:49. > :16:51.It's three inches long but the time it saves is eqtivalent

:16:52. > :16:53.to 24 nursing shifts each d`y across three local hospitals.

:16:54. > :16:56.A new digital key being used to get at the drugs at Goole, Grimsby

:16:57. > :16:59.and Scunthorpe hospitals is saving hours of nurses' time every day

:17:00. > :17:05.They are the first in country to trial the system which

:17:06. > :17:08.Our Health Correspondent Vicky Johnson has more.

:17:09. > :17:11.In most hospitals when nurses need to get into

:17:12. > :17:14.the drug cupboards they havd to find the person in charge of the keys.

:17:15. > :17:18.This means hours of nurses' time is wasted every day.

:17:19. > :17:21.But in Scunthorpe it's a different story.

:17:22. > :17:25.These electronic keys have revolutionised the way staff gain

:17:26. > :17:47.Every nurse who's going to need one during their shift is alloc`ted one,

:17:48. > :17:50.across the wards that will give us the equivalent of having 24 extra

:17:51. > :17:54.Nurses can be going to the drugs cupboards up to 50 times

:17:55. > :18:00.a shift, so easy access is benefiting them and their p`tients.

:18:01. > :18:04.You get quality time with your patience rather than jtst

:18:05. > :18:10.Now we have our own it is life changing.

:18:11. > :18:14.The new system has improved drug security too because each kdy

:18:15. > :18:18.generates its own computerised audit trail, detailing who ht is

:18:19. > :19:45.assigned to, which cupboards have been opened and how long.

:19:46. > :19:48.Hundreds of people have been at RAF Waddington today, for what could be

:19:49. > :19:53.the last time that a Vulcan bomber ever takes off from the station

:19:54. > :19:57.Waddington's runway will be out of service for the next year, while the

:19:58. > :20:02.Vulcan's engines are due to reach the end of their lives in 2015.

:20:03. > :20:05.Our reporter Jake Zuckerman was there.

:20:06. > :20:10.For RAF Waddington and the Vulcan bomber it was a historic morning.

:20:11. > :20:13.At the viewing area crowds began to gather, many had travelled

:20:14. > :20:18.For some their connection to the Vulcan goes back more than half

:20:19. > :20:27.I used to see it flying abott all of the time, and I suppose ht is

:20:28. > :20:35.We have come down from Pontdfract so it was an early morning.

:20:36. > :20:38.I will be amazed if I don't feel a bit emotional

:20:39. > :20:42.It is the last time it ever goes out of here.

:20:43. > :20:45.Vulcan was delivered to RAF Waddington in 1960

:20:46. > :20:48.and spent much of its operational life in Lincolnshire.

:20:49. > :21:05.It was finally grounded in 0993 becoming the last Vulcan to leave

:21:06. > :21:08.RAF service, but in 2007 the aircraft took to the sky

:21:09. > :21:10.once more after a huge fundraising effort paid for its restoration

:21:11. > :21:13.Since then it has been a highlight on the airshow circuit.

:21:14. > :21:16.But this could well be the last time it takes off from Waddhngton.

:21:17. > :21:20.Next year it will still be flying but Waddington will be shut, so you

:21:21. > :21:23.may see her in the overhead but it certainly won't be landing here

:21:24. > :21:26.Unfortunately at the end of 201 , although we have airframe lhfe left,

:21:27. > :21:32.The engine has cycled out by the end of them.

:21:33. > :21:38.These days nobody services or rejuvenate old vintage jet dngines.

:21:39. > :21:41.As the crowd looked on, 558 taxied to the take`off,

:21:42. > :22:02.The Vulcan returns for one final fly`past.

:22:03. > :22:05.A salute to the crowd and to the station that for

:22:06. > :22:21.Beverley's Kyle Edmund is through to semi final of the

:22:22. > :22:28.Kyle, nearest the camera, beat Luxembourg's Neils Deshgn,

:22:56. > :22:58.It's Chris Chester's second game in charge as the Robins' boss.

:22:59. > :23:10.We just hope we can take thhs confidence and belief into Friday's

:23:20. > :23:27.If you use the buses in Hull, there's

:23:28. > :23:30.a good chance you might see your driver on the television tonight.

:23:31. > :23:35.The staff of East Yorkshire Motor Services will star in a doctmentary

:23:36. > :23:40.following life on the buses around Hull and further afidld.

:23:41. > :23:43.They've been speaking about how the show has been affecting them

:23:44. > :23:50.There are certain things th`t let you know where you are

:23:51. > :23:53.in the world and the colours of the east Yorkshire motor services

:23:54. > :23:57.bus company let you know imlediately you are in Hull and the east Riding

:23:58. > :24:00.But tonight we see their true colours in

:24:01. > :24:13.Of course most of the action and of course the drama comes

:24:14. > :24:23.It is here where we see Rod in action, getting lost.

:24:24. > :24:28.I have a catchphrase now whhch is on the TV programme.

:24:29. > :24:36.I get it from work colleaguds, not just the drivers,

:24:37. > :24:42.but everybody in the garage and from the passengers as well.

:24:43. > :24:51.And George is finding the word is spreading quickly too.

:24:52. > :24:56.The girl in the hairdressers asked me when the programme is gohng on.

:24:57. > :25:00.It is surprising how many people know about it.

:25:01. > :25:03.We were hoping it would be kept under wraps.

:25:04. > :25:07.I can't even go in the kebab shop because they're

:25:08. > :25:13.You get to see everything, the good, the bad and ugly.

:25:14. > :25:17.She thinks I need to lose a bit of weight now.

:25:18. > :25:21.They say it adds pounds on, the camera, it has added kilos to me.

:25:22. > :25:23.Opening such a well`established family business to a TV doctmentary

:25:24. > :25:28.company and a national audidnce is a risk, but owner Peter Ship thinks

:25:29. > :25:36.We run a pretty good ship hdre, if you would pardon the pun.

:25:37. > :25:40.The staff are great, generally speaking.

:25:41. > :25:42.It will show people what sole of the problems are

:25:43. > :25:52.in running a bus company and I don't think we have anything to lose.

:25:53. > :25:54.It is the character of the people that work herd that

:25:55. > :25:58.meant the entire series has been dedicated to the one companx.

:25:59. > :26:15.The question is will they enjoy watching it.
