:00:19. > :00:22.There are people who are afraid to leave their own home.

:00:23. > :00:26.They would, um, kill us if they could, I think.

:00:36. > :00:44.There are just two more evenings left to see this spectacle

:00:45. > :00:49.that has stirred the emotions of the people of Hull.

:00:50. > :00:52.There is a buzz in Lincoln as the city's football team head off

:00:53. > :00:57.And the campaign for a knighthood for the last

:00:58. > :01:01.living British Dambuster gets celebrity backing.

:01:02. > :01:05.He's one of the most charming people you could ever wish to meet,

:01:06. > :01:08.and if anybody has given a public service to this country,

:01:09. > :01:19.And a quiet and largely dry weekend to come. I will be back later with

:01:20. > :01:25.the details. Farmers in Lincolnshire say

:01:26. > :01:28.they are having to take the law into their own hands in order

:01:29. > :01:32.to stop hare coursing. They claim criminal gangs

:01:33. > :01:35.are trespassing on their land on an almost daily basis to take

:01:36. > :01:39.part in the illegal blood sport, and are becoming increasingly

:01:40. > :01:44.violent when confronted. The latest figures show that 19

:01:45. > :01:47.people have been arrested or reported so far this season

:01:48. > :01:51.for hare coursing in Lincolnshire. Seven dogs have been seized

:01:52. > :01:57.and two vehicles taken. Police say dealing with

:01:58. > :02:00.the activity, which sees dogs used to chase hares through fields,

:02:01. > :02:04.is at the top of their agenda. Here's our rural affairs

:02:05. > :02:08.correspondent, Paul Murphy. Chasing and killing hares

:02:09. > :02:11.with dogs has been banned But you wouldn't know it

:02:12. > :02:18.from looking at social media. It is awash with footage of those

:02:19. > :02:22.who continue to break the law. What is changing, though,

:02:23. > :02:25.is the level of violence that hare coursers mete out to those

:02:26. > :02:29.who try to stop them. They came at me because my vehicle

:02:30. > :02:34.was blocking their exit and they immediately started

:02:35. > :02:37.to throw rocks at me, with me in the vehicle,

:02:38. > :02:40.and hammered the side of my vehicle so that they could get

:02:41. > :02:44.past and escape. These hare coursers escaped,

:02:45. > :02:47.leaving their vehicle behind. They came back later to set it

:02:48. > :02:51.alight, possibly to destroy any These actions are creating

:02:52. > :02:57.fear in this community. This woman would only talk

:02:58. > :03:01.if we didn't show her face. They have become aggressive, nasty,

:03:02. > :03:09.uncontrollable and intimidating. There are people who are afraid

:03:10. > :03:13.to leave their own home. I've spoken to several farmers

:03:14. > :03:18.here on the Lincolnshire fens today, and although a lot of them have very

:03:19. > :03:22.strong opinions, none of them wanted to appear on camera,

:03:23. > :03:27.or to be identified, and that's simply because they are

:03:28. > :03:30.afraid, they are afraid of the consequences for them

:03:31. > :03:33.and for their families, the reprisals that could come

:03:34. > :03:37.from the hare coursers. We know, as a police service,

:03:38. > :03:41.we've got to up our game and make best use of our resources,

:03:42. > :03:44.but the farming community needs to work with us,

:03:45. > :03:48.it needs to keep itself safe and it needs to assist proactively

:03:49. > :03:52.when we can prosecute. But hare coursing posts on social

:03:53. > :03:56.media make a mockery of the law. In fact, some coursers take a thrill

:03:57. > :04:02.from being chased themselves. The vehicle in pursuit

:04:03. > :04:09.is being driven by a landowner. It's thought the injured hare

:04:10. > :04:12.in the footwell was being taken away because it might have been

:04:13. > :04:15.used as evidence. This is a stinger,

:04:16. > :04:18.we put it in a gateway... This farmer says he's done

:04:19. > :04:22.with relying on the police. He is making police style stingers

:04:23. > :04:24.to puncture the tyres Other landowners are using drones

:04:25. > :04:31.to monitor the fields. This farmer can only

:04:32. > :04:34.watch as two cars drive Fields across this area show

:04:35. > :04:41.signs of car damage. They would, um, kill us

:04:42. > :04:45.if they could, I think. They've got no scruples, they have

:04:46. > :04:52.got no respect for anybody. What we'd like to do is help

:04:53. > :04:57.the police catch the culprits, but the police seem very reluctant

:04:58. > :05:04.to talk to us and to work with us. It was in this same community

:05:05. > :05:08.that Lincolnshire Police launched its anti-hare coursing

:05:09. > :05:12.strategy last September. But the hare coursers,

:05:13. > :05:14.like the ones seen here speeding through a farm shop car park,

:05:15. > :05:20.are continuing to blight local life. I can see the lengths that farmers

:05:21. > :05:24.have gone to, with trenches dug, with bollards in place,

:05:25. > :05:29.massive rocks to try and deter them. It's not the farmers that

:05:30. > :05:32.need to try and do more, As a resident, what I would like to

:05:33. > :05:40.see is a greater police presence. But the hare coursers

:05:41. > :05:43.are undeterred, even filming In a police force where resources

:05:44. > :05:50.are stretched, these criminal gangs know they currently

:05:51. > :06:09.have the upper hand. Some strong feelings from people in

:06:10. > :06:13.South Lincolnshire. What have the police had to say? This is at the

:06:14. > :06:17.top of the Lincolnshire Police agenda, the question is whether they

:06:18. > :06:21.are capable of dealing with. They say they are facing two judges,

:06:22. > :06:25.firstly the geography of linkage, and the second is the difficulty of

:06:26. > :06:29.bringing prosecutions against hare coursers because you have to catch

:06:30. > :06:34.them in the act and find witnesses who are courageous enough to stand

:06:35. > :06:36.up and testify against them and that is proving challenging. The

:06:37. > :06:39.Lincolnshire Police and Crime Commissioner has button to us and

:06:40. > :06:42.says he will be meeting with the new Chief Constable when he starts work

:06:43. > :06:46.in the coming weeks but certainly the force has a long way to go to

:06:47. > :06:51.win back the confidence of those people in South Lincolnshire who are

:06:52. > :06:56.being terrorised on a daily basis. As I say, we would like to hear your

:06:57. > :07:00.views on this. Are the police doing enough to protect immunities? Here

:07:01. > :07:14.are the details. -- protect communities.

:07:15. > :07:17.I look forward to hearing from you on that subject and we will have

:07:18. > :07:18.some before we finish. The new boss at Hull City,

:07:19. > :07:21.Marco Silva, says it would be a miracle if they avoid relegation

:07:22. > :07:24.from the Premier League. The Tigers sit bottom of the table,

:07:25. > :07:27.and Silva also admits there isn't After arriving from Portugal,

:07:28. > :07:48.he'll take charge of his first game As first meetings go, it was a short

:07:49. > :07:52.debut from Marco Silva, who was introducing himself to supporters

:07:53. > :07:55.after Mike Phelan's sacking. Many needed the introduction and most had

:07:56. > :07:59.not even heard of the Portuguese when he was appointed, but the

:08:00. > :08:02.39-year-old, who has coached in Greece and in his man, feels he is

:08:03. > :08:12.the man to point Hull City in the right direction. -- in his homeland.

:08:13. > :08:16.When you get a question about working in the Premier League or

:08:17. > :08:30.working in Hull, it is not an easy decision. But it is a good club. The

:08:31. > :08:37.Premier League is a fantastic step. Mourinho is Mourinho. He is a

:08:38. > :08:52.friend, also. He is a great ambassador for the Portuguese

:08:53. > :08:58.people. We want a lot of money to spend, but we have had to do what is

:08:59. > :09:08.the best weather team, and for sure, we need to improve our team. We need

:09:09. > :09:14.to do what is possible. How do you rate your prospects of surviving in

:09:15. > :09:23.the Premier League? We need a miracle to remain in the Premier

:09:24. > :09:28.League. Sometimes they happen. Maybe in May, it might happen. We will

:09:29. > :09:32.see. But not everyone will see his first game against Swansea tomorrow

:09:33. > :09:34.as some are planning to boycott it input -- in protest at the club's

:09:35. > :09:35.owners. A big day for Hull City,

:09:36. > :09:38.and we will be hearing about Lincoln City's big day

:09:39. > :09:40.in the FA Cup tomorrow A man has admitted murdering a woman

:09:41. > :09:44.whose body was found at a house in Lincolnshire.

:09:45. > :09:47.Casey Scott, who is 29 and from Skegness, pleaded guilty

:09:48. > :09:50.at Lincoln Crown Court to killing 28-year-old

:09:51. > :09:54.Lenuta Ioana Haidemac in July. Her body was found at a house

:09:55. > :09:59.in Drummond Road in Skegness. A jury's heard how two men accused

:10:00. > :10:02.of smuggling Class A drugs into the UK by ferry were secretly

:10:03. > :10:08.filmed talking in a Hull pub. A team of undercover officers

:10:09. > :10:11.targeted P ship steward Edward Tron and cook Mark Quilliam

:10:12. > :10:15.in June 2015. The pair deny charges

:10:16. > :10:19.of conspiring to import cocaine, and Mr Tron's wife, Susan,

:10:20. > :10:21.denies money laundering. The number of people attending A

:10:22. > :10:28.departments in Lincolnshire rose by 11% in the week

:10:29. > :10:30.between Boxing Day Just over 2800 people went

:10:31. > :10:35.into hospitals in Lincoln, That's 300 more

:10:36. > :10:42.than the week before. More than 150,000 people have been

:10:43. > :10:46.to visit Hull during the first week A giant light show called

:10:47. > :10:51.Made in Hull has drawn visitors to the city centre

:10:52. > :10:54.every night this weekend. Organisers say they are delighted

:10:55. > :10:57.with how it's been received. Caroline Bilton is live in Queen

:10:58. > :11:11.Victoria Square for us tonight. Did they expect this many people?

:11:12. > :11:15.Well, it is state they have been pleasantly surprised. Just take a

:11:16. > :11:19.look at these cries this evening. The bad weather has not put people

:11:20. > :11:24.off. This amazing spectacle is what they are here to see. It has been

:11:25. > :11:29.like this every night of this week. To see this many people in the

:11:30. > :11:34.centre of Hull on a series of weekday evenings is unprecedented.

:11:35. > :11:36.It is not just here in Queen Victoria Square. Over at The Deep

:11:37. > :11:41.just five minutes away from where I am, crowds are gathering to watch

:11:42. > :11:48.more amazing projections that tell the story of Hull. We know from

:11:49. > :11:51.talking to local businesses that there has been an increase in

:11:52. > :11:59.footfall, they have been telling us it has been the busiest ever start

:12:00. > :12:04.to a year. Today we got the official figures that confront that. 150,000

:12:05. > :12:07.people have been coming to the city from Sunday to Wednesday and of

:12:08. > :12:12.course, that figure will increase when we get the final figure on

:12:13. > :12:16.Monday. It has been amazing, people have been in tears here tonight,

:12:17. > :12:19.Peter. This is what they have been telling me.

:12:20. > :12:30.Just everything, really. Absolutely brilliant. It was brilliant. I have

:12:31. > :12:34.come all the way from Nottingham to see it because I come from Hull. My

:12:35. > :12:40.mum is very into theatre things in placement. It is so amazing, I have

:12:41. > :12:41.never seen anything like it. I have heard about it but I am gobsmacked.

:12:42. > :12:53.Wonderful. All of this has helped to catapult

:12:54. > :12:57.the city into the spotlight. Not all of it has been positive media

:12:58. > :13:03.coverage. Earlier this week, the Sun paper faced criticism for running an

:13:04. > :13:07.article referring to the city as the "Scrapital of Culture", alluding to

:13:08. > :13:12.the violence in the city on New Year's Eve. But today, the paper has

:13:13. > :13:16.published a more positive article in response to that criticism. On the

:13:17. > :13:22.invite of Apprentice star Michelle Dewberry, they have to at the city

:13:23. > :13:24.and they have delivered a report that gives a more fair

:13:25. > :13:29.representation of the city's culture. So, there are just two more

:13:30. > :13:34.nights to see this spectacle, this most amazing spectacle here in Hull.

:13:35. > :13:39.Tonight and tomorrow are expected to be incredibly busy, the advice is to

:13:40. > :13:44.come early if you can or indeed later. It runs from 4pm until nine

:13:45. > :13:49.p.m.. And traffic is a lot busier than normal. Questions are being

:13:50. > :13:53.asked as to whether or not this could run later in the year and I'm

:13:54. > :13:57.afraid the organisers have told us that the answer is no, but they do

:13:58. > :14:02.say that there are a lot more exciting things coming our way over

:14:03. > :14:08.the next year and if this is anything to go by, beta, we have got

:14:09. > :14:12.an awful lot to look forward to. -- Peter.

:14:13. > :14:18.There's a buzz in Lincoln as the city's football team head off

:14:19. > :14:23.And the campaign for a knighthood for the last British Dambuster

:14:24. > :14:47.BBC One, tonight's photograph and keep those coming in. This was taken

:14:48. > :14:54.by Nick Hedges of Beverley. Lots of people took photos of the contrails

:14:55. > :15:03.yesterday. It would be nice if we could have a forecast for Christmas

:15:04. > :15:06.night or Christmas Day. You are very cheeky! I suppose I

:15:07. > :15:10.should be pleased you are listening and watching me!

:15:11. > :15:15.I was watching the graphics very carefully. I wouldn't mind, but you

:15:16. > :15:20.made the big mistake and I get all the grief of highlighting it, so I

:15:21. > :15:26.can't win. Thanks a bunch! Lots going on this

:15:27. > :15:32.weekend. The weather does not look too bad. There is not to be lots of

:15:33. > :15:36.sunshine, there will be quite a lot of cloud, but at least it will be

:15:37. > :15:39.generally dry. The best of any sunshine should be tomorrow. High

:15:40. > :15:45.pressure dominating, but it is quite cloudy. Underneath the cloud it will

:15:46. > :15:50.feel chilly. But we are frost free. A lot of cloud across our part of

:15:51. > :15:55.the world and it has been producing rain through the afternoon. That

:15:56. > :16:01.rain is now starting to move away. Followed by a few showers and quite

:16:02. > :16:04.a lot of cloud. A bit of a grey night to come but I think it will

:16:05. > :16:12.become dry overnight and temperatures will fall around -- to

:16:13. > :16:17.around three four Celsius. The sun will rise at 17 minutes past eight,

:16:18. > :16:22.setting again just before four p.m.. Here are the times of high water.

:16:23. > :16:27.Tomorrow, there will be a lot of cloud, particularly to start. But we

:16:28. > :16:31.should see an improvement. We will keep quite a lot of cloud but we

:16:32. > :16:36.should get some break if not sunny spells. Across parts of East

:16:37. > :16:39.Yorkshire, north-eastern part of Lincolnshire, we get the best of the

:16:40. > :16:43.brightness later on in the afternoon. And it will be a dry

:16:44. > :16:48.afternoon, like south-westerly breeze, temperatures getting up to

:16:49. > :16:52.around eight Celsius. On Sunday, there will still be a lot of cloud,

:16:53. > :16:59.so another fairly cloudy day to come. Rather blustery on Monday. On

:17:00. > :17:03.Monday, a band of rain will sink southwards, perhaps some heavy

:17:04. > :17:07.spells and blustery winds. Sunshine and blustery showers later in the

:17:08. > :17:12.day. The rest of the week will be quite unsettled.

:17:13. > :17:16.You can do no wrong, you make no mistake, I highlight it and I have

:17:17. > :17:20.the deal with the grief! There were a lot of people who

:17:21. > :17:23.highlighted it to me as well. Although Paul said it was an easy

:17:24. > :17:24.mistake to make because he makes quite a few as well.

:17:25. > :17:26.Have a nice weekend. Almost 5000 supporters will be

:17:27. > :17:29.backing Lincoln City tomorrow as the Imps aim to cause a shock

:17:30. > :17:31.in the FA Cup. They will play at Ipswich,

:17:32. > :17:35.a team three divisions above them, and City are one of just five

:17:36. > :17:38.non-league sides left If they were feeling nervous,

:17:39. > :17:47.they didn't show it as they boarded the bus to Ipswich this morning

:17:48. > :17:49.for one of their It was a surprise win over

:17:50. > :17:54.League One team Oldham last month But they are feeling good

:17:55. > :17:57.about the next round. There's definitely a buzz

:17:58. > :18:01.about the lads and they're looking We're the underdogs

:18:02. > :18:06.at the end of the day, So I think there's been a good

:18:07. > :18:10.feeling about the place. The Imps' FA Cup run

:18:11. > :18:12.comes as they sit top of the National League,

:18:13. > :18:14.so with their current success, there's plenty of support

:18:15. > :18:17.in the city, with around 5,000 fans expected to make the trip to Ipswich

:18:18. > :18:20.for the match tomorrow. That's more than normally attend

:18:21. > :18:23.a Lincoln City home game, which average crowds

:18:24. > :18:28.of just 3,500 people. And in the morning, at least

:18:29. > :18:30.25 coaches will carry those fans the 150 miles

:18:31. > :18:35.from Lincoln to Ipswich. But there, they will

:18:36. > :18:38.face tough opposition. Ipswich Town are three

:18:39. > :18:40.divisions above, So, the manager says

:18:41. > :18:45.they will need their fans. The connection between the players

:18:46. > :18:48.and supporters is really strong. I think the reason why is

:18:49. > :18:52.because there is natural chemistry. Lincoln as a city is full of honest,

:18:53. > :18:57.hard-working, down-to-earth we would like to think our group

:18:58. > :19:04.has similar traits. And even non football fans here say

:19:05. > :19:07.they are backing the local team. You do feel that

:19:08. > :19:09.it's something good. I think sport in general makes

:19:10. > :19:14.a difference to people, and when you're on the winning side,

:19:15. > :19:19.it lifts the spirit. Well, I would have thought the whole

:19:20. > :19:22.city is feeling good about it. I can remember when I was a boy

:19:23. > :19:25.and supported Lincoln City, it was a good football club,

:19:26. > :19:28.the feeling was good and I think A win against Ipswich tomorrow

:19:29. > :19:33.could take Lincoln's cup earnings to well over ?250,000,

:19:34. > :19:36.but for the fans heading to the game, it is worth

:19:37. > :19:40.so much more than money. Sarah Walton,

:20:11. > :20:13.when the sides meet in Last January, Hull won by 60 points

:20:14. > :20:20.to 20 on the eve of the season. The two sides face each other

:20:33. > :20:37.than 160,000 people. George "Johnny" Johnson

:20:38. > :20:41.was part of 617 Squadron, which was formed at

:20:42. > :20:44.RAF Scampton near Lincoln. TV presenter Carol Vorderman

:20:45. > :20:47.is backing the campaign and I will be talking

:20:48. > :21:00.to her in a moment, but first, The campaign surrounding a

:21:01. > :21:04.knighthood for George "Johnny" Johnson, the last remaining British

:21:05. > :21:07.Dambuster, continues to gather momentum like a bouncing bomb

:21:08. > :21:11.itself. With campaigns and thinning he has been snubbed from this year's

:21:12. > :21:15.honours list. But what evidence is there to show he could have been

:21:16. > :21:21.snubbed, and is it that simple to be awarded a knighthood for being a

:21:52. > :21:54.But there are rules which make things more complicated for today.

:21:55. > :21:59.The rules state you have to be active in the areas for which you

:22:00. > :22:05.are being nominated, so Strictly speaking, Johnny's achievements,

:22:06. > :22:10.certainly with regard to the Dambusters, happened many years ago.

:22:11. > :22:19.But he is still active within the community and doing charity work, so

:22:20. > :22:22.it just depends house straight the Cabinet Office want to enforce that.

:22:23. > :22:26.The nomination can take up to two years. One campaigner we spoke to

:22:27. > :22:31.officially nominated Mr Johnson in November of 2015. An application

:22:32. > :22:37.that does not expire until June. But it did not make this new years list.

:22:38. > :22:43.Size ambassador for the RAF Air Cadets, Carol Vorderman, who has

:22:44. > :22:47.also met Johnny Johnson, has also submitted a nomination and started a

:22:48. > :22:52.petition which has gained over 150,000 signatures so far. But if he

:22:53. > :23:07.got it, what then? If it comes off, I shall ask with due humility and

:23:08. > :23:09.majesty, if I can dedicate it to the 55,000 Bomber Command aircrews who

:23:10. > :23:16.gave their lives to their countries during the war. I think she would

:23:17. > :23:18.agree and that is the way I think it should go.

:23:19. > :23:20.I asked Carol Vorderman if she was surprised by the reaction

:23:21. > :23:23.to Mr Johnson being overlooked for an honour since we first talked

:23:24. > :23:41.I'm not so much surprised as absolutely overjoyed, really. The

:23:42. > :23:47.response has been tremendous, because he is such an incredible

:23:48. > :23:50.man. Do you know what the latest figure is the number of people that

:23:51. > :23:55.have been signing this petition this week? It is phenomenal. I only

:23:56. > :24:02.launched its two days ago, and within 48 hours, there were 150,000.

:24:03. > :24:09.It is now over 160,000 by this evening, I don't know how many. He

:24:10. > :24:13.has been recognised for his military achievements. Why do think he needs

:24:14. > :24:20.and deserves a knighthood? Johnny Johnson is quite an incredible

:24:21. > :24:23.person. That only was he part of 617 Squadron and the Dambusters crew,

:24:24. > :24:29.which is remarkable in itself, he has worked tirelessly with and for

:24:30. > :24:32.children and charities ever since. He is one of the most charming

:24:33. > :24:37.people you could ever wish to meet and if anybody has given of public

:24:38. > :24:39.service to this country, it is Johnny Johnson. What do you think

:24:40. > :24:47.about the system generally? One thing that has want people up is

:24:48. > :24:51.that civil servants on 106 to ?5,000 a year or Victoria Beckham --

:24:52. > :24:54.Beckham getting awards are people like Johnny. I think it is

:24:55. > :25:00.reasonable for people like Victoria Beckham to get an award, or Andy

:25:01. > :25:03.Murray, they are people who are part of the National culture. But I have

:25:04. > :25:08.a problem with David Cameron's spin doctor been given a knighthood, or

:25:09. > :25:14.certain civil servants, and they are given it for public service. Johnny

:25:15. > :25:19.Johnson has given of himself and of public service more, I believe, than

:25:20. > :25:23.they have, and he absolutely deserves a knighthood. So, do you

:25:24. > :25:27.think now we have got their names on this petition and they are handed to

:25:28. > :25:31.Theresa May or the Cabinet, do you think this decision can be reversed?

:25:32. > :25:36.I am doing a fresh official nomination and within the next two

:25:37. > :25:41.weeks, I want as many people as possible to carry on signing the

:25:42. > :25:45.petition so the number can grow to the highest peak, and then I will

:25:46. > :25:48.take that petition and the official nomination to Downing Street and if

:25:49. > :25:52.they do not let me in, I will go to the Cabinet Office next door and

:25:53. > :26:02.leave it there. We wish you well with that. Carroll, thank you for

:26:03. > :26:08.your time. Thank you. Keep signing! Thank you for all the e-mails and

:26:09. > :26:10.texts. We will follow the story and let you know if there are any

:26:11. > :26:10.developments. Let's get a recap of the national

:26:52. > :26:55.police should deploy resources to stop these thugs taking their --

:26:56. > :26:58.take their cars and dogs and children. Rural communities do not

:26:59. > :27:03.get the resources they should. Ian says, hare coursing is a despicable

:27:04. > :27:06.pastime that is against the law. The police have to prioritise resources

:27:07. > :27:11.and their priority is quietly -- quite rightly the protection of the

:27:12. > :27:14.public. And this one, we had hare coursers on our fields at one

:27:15. > :27:18.o'clock in the afternoon on Wednesday. My son rang the police,

:27:19. > :27:23.we watched them for an hour as one retrieved his dog and walked past

:27:24. > :27:27.me. David says, the police can only do so much. Would it be an idea to

:27:28. > :27:33.seek temporary resources from a neighbouring authority? A big

:27:34. > :27:37.response on the subject of hare coursing from serving as you. Thank

:27:38. > :27:41.you for watching. Have a nice weekend, enjoy Made in Hull if

:27:42. > :27:51.you're going. I will see you on Monday, take care. Good night.
