15 minutes. The city of Hull has played host

:01:03.:01:12.

to a Royal visit today, just six weeks into its City

:02:00.:02:05.

the millions of pounds it been spent to improve the city. There were five

stops today and they were met with a warm welcome at all of them. My

report contains flash photography. My report contains

:02:16.:02:16.

flash photography. It wasn't the best weather

:02:17.:02:21.

for a Royal visit that once the motorcade had arrived no one

:02:22.:02:23.

seemed to mind The Duke and Duchess of Cornwall

:02:24.:02:25.

to the time to thank the I was gobsmacked,

:02:26.:02:29.

she was really lovely. It might be a cold,

:02:30.:02:39.

wet day, but that has not discouraged hundreds

:02:40.:02:44.

of people took coming This is the only engagement

:02:45.:02:46.

they will carry out today together. They will first call

:02:47.:02:57.

in and inspect the ?5.2 million refurbishment of the

:02:58.:02:59.

Ferens Art Gallery before going on Once inside they took

:03:00.:03:01.

a closer look at the exhibits and met potential

artists of the future. Next for Prince Charles

:03:05.:03:06.

it was a visit to Holy Trinity Church,

:03:07.:03:08.

soon to be renamed Hull Minster. There he saw some of the ?4

:03:09.:03:11.

million regeneration spot of crocheting

:03:12.:03:14.

without great success. For the Duchess it was a visit

:03:15.:03:16.

to homelessness charity She even bought a teapot for

:03:17.:03:27.

the cause and met those who had been She was asking me what

:03:28.:03:32.

was the reason I came to Emmaus and what did

:03:33.:03:38.

I think of the place? And generally just

:03:39.:03:40.

asked me about myself. The final stop on the Duchess'

:03:41.:03:45.

visit was The Deep. There she presented prizes to five

:03:46.:03:47.

young writers on behalf of the First Story charity, of

:03:48.:03:50.

which she is patron. She told to keep on writing

:03:51.:03:52.

and to never give up. I was nervous about reading

:03:53.:03:55.

it and nervous about I don't do crowds in the first place

:03:56.:03:57.

so just being in front The final billing of the day

:03:58.:04:03.

for Prince Charles was a visit to Hull Truck Theatre where

:04:04.:04:13.

he met some fellow famous faces, is in rehearsal for

:04:14.:04:16.

the co-production with the Royal There was then just enough

:04:17.:04:19.

time to thank a few more well-wishers before

:04:20.:04:26.

the visit ended but it will be

:04:27.:04:29.

a memorable day for all those The play is about rebellion against

:04:30.:04:41.

Charles the first and it will be interesting to hear what he thought

:04:42.:04:44.

about that. The organisers hope the visit deal will encourage people

:04:45.:04:50.

from all backgrounds to come and visit Hull.

:04:51.:04:52.

We'd love to hear from you if you were in Hull this

:04:53.:04:55.

If you saw Prince Charles and the Duchess of Cornwall

:04:56.:04:58.

or if you spoke with them, what did you think of them.

:04:59.:05:01.

Are you pleased they've been to your city?

:05:02.:05:07.

We will have some more royal pictures before the programme is

:05:08.:05:25.

finished. In a moment: The chalet owners

:05:26.:05:26.

worried about the future as their council talks

:05:27.:05:28.

behind closed doors. The new Chief Constable

:05:29.:05:35.

of Lincolnshire says he's 'reasonably optimistic'

:05:36.:05:37.

about the future of the force. Bill Skelly, who was previously

:05:38.:05:42.

the Deputy Chief Constable of Devon and Cornwall,

:05:43.:05:46.

took over the role last week following

:05:47.:05:49.

the retirement of Neil Rhodes. Mr Skelly says there

:05:50.:05:51.

are still challenges surrounding finance but says

:05:52.:05:53.

the service is sustainable. He's been speaking to our

:05:54.:05:56.

reporter Jake Zuckerman. Lincolnshire's new chief

:05:57.:05:58.

constable is getting to know Bill Skelly takes over at a time

:05:59.:06:00.

when the force faces challenges on many fronts.

:06:01.:06:05.

Next Friday I will be meeting with some of our farming community

:06:06.:06:11.

to talk about issues such as hare coursing and the things which really

:06:12.:06:15.

affect them in terms of anti-social Will we see more arrests,

:06:16.:06:18.

more convictions for I'm very keen to listen

:06:19.:06:23.

to and understand the problem before I really commit to where we need

:06:24.:06:32.

to put the resources. It may not be necessarily clear

:06:33.:06:35.

at the outset, for me, as to where the best effect of that

:06:36.:06:37.

resource could be. How will you get more money out

:06:38.:06:40.

of central Government? Two big things we want to see

:06:41.:06:43.

in the new arrangements that have not featured too much in the past

:06:44.:06:46.

are rurality, the sparse geography area that we have to cover

:06:47.:06:51.

and seasonal population increases. I'm optimistic this time around

:06:52.:06:55.

those two arguments, of rurality and seasonal increases

:06:56.:07:03.

in population, Whether or not they will actually

:07:04.:07:05.

translate into increased funding, that is my challenge over

:07:06.:07:09.

the next three months. Boston has been described

:07:10.:07:11.

as England's most segregated town. You have been there,

:07:12.:07:13.

you have seen it for yourself. How are you going to deal

:07:14.:07:16.

with the tensions that that I've also heard Boston described

:07:17.:07:18.

as a vibrant and multicultural town. I understand that have been historic

:07:19.:07:27.

tensions and it is my role to work with communities and with local

:07:28.:07:30.

authorities and partner agencies to intervene where we can

:07:31.:07:33.

to reduce those tensions. It may be early days

:07:34.:07:35.

but the Chief Constable says he is optimistic about the outlook

:07:36.:07:37.

for policing in the county. Jake Zuckerman, BBC

:07:38.:07:40.

Look North, Nettleham. We wish all the best with his as

:07:41.:08:03.

Chief Constable. What is the one area you think they should tackle as

:08:04.:08:07.

a matter of urgency? That is a reminder of the e-mail address and

"inadequate" by the Care Quality He left his chief executive post

:08:22.:08:24.

in Hull in 2014 just weeks before a highly critical

:08:25.:08:28.

report was published. Two teenagers have died

:08:29.:08:31.

in a crash in East Yorkshire. A 16-year-old girl from Selby

:08:32.:08:33.

and a 17-year-old boy from Goole died when the car

:08:34.:08:36.

they were travelling in hit a tree The driver, a 19-year-old man,

:08:37.:08:39.

sustained minor injuries and has been arrested on suspicion

Rolfe is at the scene. What more do we know

:08:48.:08:52.

about the accident? Police are appealing for witnesses

:08:53.:09:06.

after the death of these two teenage passengers which happened round this

:09:07.:09:11.

corner here. You can probably see a slow in the road sign and also

warnings of sharp bend. The car struck a tree. The precise location

:09:37.:09:39.

police are still with the families trying to help them come to terms

:09:40.:09:44.

with what has tragically happen. Floral tributes have been left at

:09:45.:09:48.

the scene. Police are warning people not to continue to do so in feeling

like or walking to the scene which is in many ways the older we can get

:09:53.:09:58.

it to it. They say in doing so you are a danger to yourself but also

:09:59.:10:03.

other road users. That is very much the warning from police tonight and

:10:04.:10:08.

tomorrow. Tributes have come from a nearby college which one of the

:10:09.:10:12.

deceased attended. In a statement they said it was with great sadness

:10:13.:10:17.

that staff learned of this tragic accident. He was a popular student.

:10:18.:10:24.

Tonight police investigations are continuing and a 19-year-old man has

:10:25.:10:27.

been arrested on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving.

A man's died after a crash on a Lincolnshire road.

:11:06.:11:07.

It happened on the A18 near Ludborough at around 11

A car and a lorry were involved, and the road was closed for several

The inquests into the murder of 30 British holiday-makers in Tunisia

:11:22.:11:25.

in 2015, including three from East Yorkshire

:11:26.:11:27.

and Lincolnshire, has heard that armed police guards in the area

:11:28.:11:30.

could have stopped the attack at the very beginning.

:11:31.:11:32.

Claire Windass from Hull, Bruce Wilkinson from Goole

:11:33.:11:34.

and Carly Lovett from Gainsborough died when a gunman attacked

:11:35.:11:36.

Today the inquest at the Royal Courts of justice heard

:11:37.:11:40.

that the police's refusal to intervene was down

:11:41.:11:42.

A decision could be made tonight on the future of a chalet park

:11:43.:11:47.

The council has recommended that its preferred bidder takes over

:11:48.:11:50.

the Humberston Fitties site saying it represents the best

:11:51.:11:52.

But chalet owners, a group of whom put forward their own bid

:11:53.:11:56.

to run the park, are urging the council to think again.

:11:57.:11:59.

The Humberston Fitties - for many a place for holidays

:12:00.:12:02.

and fun, for some, it s as good as home.

:12:03.:12:04.

There are around 300 chalets in this conservation area -

:12:05.:12:09.

but soon it could all pass into private hands.

:12:10.:12:11.

The council is selling the Fitties off - the community of chalet owners

:12:12.:12:15.

want to run it themselves, tabling an offer worth

:12:16.:12:17.

We are capable of looking after this properly as it should be and

:12:18.:12:27.

retaining its history and heritage. We have all the facilities available

:12:28.:12:32.

on here to run this as it should be run.

:12:33.:12:37.

But councillors at North East Lincolnshire Council have already

:12:38.:12:40.

said theyre in favour of one of four other bids.

:12:41.:12:43.

Chalet owners fear it may be a large holiday company -

:12:44.:12:45.

it will be decided at a full council meeting tonight -

:12:46.:12:48.

I do feel that has been a complete lack of transparency and I feel

:12:49.:12:57.

frightened for the future of this community and our holiday chalets

:12:58.:13:01.

and airfield that decisions are being made and I have no input. -- I

:13:02.:13:06.

feel. The Fitties - which comes

:13:07.:13:07.

from a word meaning 'salt marsh', first began life

:13:08.:13:10.

during the First World War, housing soldiers who

:13:11.:13:12.

manned the Humber forts. During peacetime, holiday-makers

:13:13.:13:14.

began setting up their own accommodation, and when it passed

:13:15.:13:16.

into council hands, it was stipulated that the chalets

:13:17.:13:18.

couldn't be lived in during January In recent years, the

:13:19.:13:22.

Fitties was connected to electricity, and there have been

:13:23.:13:25.

challenges over the closed here is that big money talks -

:13:26.:13:28.

which has prompted an impassioned plea by chalet owners to think

:13:29.:13:33.

again about what s best North East Lincolnshire Council says

:13:34.:13:36.

tonight s meeting is not public and chalet owners can t attend

:13:37.:13:39.

as details within it In a statement the council said in

:13:40.:13:56.

making a decision we were interested to understand the social economic

:13:57.:14:00.

and environmental benefits of all the offers. We believe the preferred

:14:01.:14:04.

bidder we have chosen represents the best deal for the council and the

:14:05.:14:09.

people of North Lincolnshire. We hope the council recognised that

:14:10.:14:13.

best value for this site is not necessarily the biggest number on a

:14:14.:14:17.

spreadsheet that also includes what is best for the tourism economy of

:14:18.:14:22.

Cleethorpes and for the tourists and the unique environment here. The

:14:23.:14:26.

special meeting of the council begins in the next half hour. There

:14:27.:14:37.

is always a lot of interest in the story and we will continue to follow

:14:38.:14:40.

it. Still ahead tonight: The dogs

taken by Andy Day. This photo of the

Duchess of Cornwall They kept to 70 miles away. It looks

:15:32.:15:52.

pretty grave for the next 24 hours and there will be a keen easterly

:15:53.:15:56.

wind. We have talked about this Scandinavian bloc for some time. Low

:15:57.:16:02.

pressure from Spain and Portugal and high pressure from Sweden and

:16:03.:16:08.

Norway. Although there will be some winter showers, perhaps a slight

:16:09.:16:10.

covering of snow in places over the next few days it will not amount to

:16:11.:16:15.

much at all. Next week we will be back to the south-westerly 's. It

:16:16.:16:19.

does not look as if it will last that long. You can see what is

:16:20.:16:22.

happening on the satellite picture. A massive extent of cloud. That will

:16:23.:16:26.

be the way of it for the next few days. For this evening and overnight

:16:27.:16:32.

that flowed thick enough at times for a few scattered showers, mainly

:16:33.:16:37.

of rain at first but increasingly perhaps of some sleet and snow. A

:16:38.:16:42.

slight covering possible mainly over the walls. -- Wolds. Watch for ice

:16:43.:16:56.

patches on untreated surfaces. It looks fairly uneventful tomorrow but

:16:57.:17:03.

there will be a scattering of sleet and snow showers in places. A lot of

:17:04.:17:08.

cloud and some brighter spells. It will feel cold as the easterly

:17:09.:17:10.

breeze picks up during the second half of the day. The top afternoon

:17:11.:17:17.

temperatures will average around three which is below the average of

:17:18.:17:25.

seven. Perhaps as sleet and snow showers are more frequent through

:17:26.:17:30.

Friday, the weekend looks cloudy and those showers will return to rain

:17:31.:17:33.

and sleet. Slightly less cold by then. If you carry on being that

:17:34.:17:42.

cheeky you will get a Scandinavian bloc, whatever that is. Have a nice

evening. A charity dog training centre

:17:48.:17:51.

in East Yorkshire says it's in desperate need of more

volunteers, or their operation Hearing Dogs for the Deaf trains

around 160 puppies a year, with one of their biggest

:18:01.:18:04.

centres near Bielby. But with hearing problems

:18:05.:18:06.

increasing, demand for the special dogs is higher than ever,

:18:07.:18:08.

and waiting times can The charity have now

launched a campaign to get Joey the miniature poodle is

:18:33.:18:38.

he interacts with me. What does it mean to have a dog

:18:39.:18:47.

like Joey for you and the family? A hearing dog makes a huge

:18:48.:18:50.

difference, no matter what. But when it comes to giving

:18:51.:18:57.

you self-confidence, Joey was trained here

:18:58.:19:00.

at the Hearing Dogs for the Deaf centre near Bielby

:19:01.:19:08.

in East Yorkshire. But the charity says

:19:09.:19:10.

they're in desperate need of volunteers, like Karen,

:19:11.:19:13.

who's a puppy socialiser. I really enjoy having

:19:14.:19:16.

a dog in my life. And just the joy of

:19:17.:19:19.

watching them learn. What I do just means that the supply

:19:20.:19:29.

of dogs is constant. The charity couldn't function in any

:19:30.:19:32.

way without our volunteers. Deafness is on the rise

:19:33.:19:34.

and there is always more people in need of a hearing dog

:19:35.:19:39.

and so we need more volunteers to help us,

:19:40.:19:41.

to help dogs on their journey, Over the coming months the team

:19:42.:19:44.

here will hold special open days It's hoped it'll mean

:19:45.:19:48.

more people like Jo can benefit from a hearing dog,

:19:49.:19:51.

as she says he's changed her life. Victoria Holland,

:19:52.:19:55.

BBC Look North, Bielby. Let's hope that the plug tonight on

:19:56.:20:09.

the telly will help them out. They need more volunteers. If you think

he could be one of those get in touch with them.

:20:16.:20:19.

Thanks to everyone who got in touch after last night's story

:20:20.:20:21.

We told you about people living in Sandilands near Mablethorpe

:20:22.:20:25.

who say they've been left fearing for their safety since

:20:26.:20:27.

the County Council decided to switch street lights off overnight

:20:28.:20:30.

I was talking to the leader of Lincolnshire County Council about

:20:31.:20:41.

this one last night. Martin Hell. Thank you for all of your tweets and

:20:42.:20:43.

e-mails. This first e-mail says Even in Victorian times

:20:44.:20:48.

there were gaslights Of course there's a correlation

:20:49.:20:57.

between the increased number of burglaries

:20:58.:21:00.

and turning out streetlights." Martin Hell says there was no

:21:01.:21:17.

correlation. -- Martin Hell. -- Hill.

:21:18.:21:25.

does encourage burglary, but councils have to save money.

:21:26.:21:28.

If people are worried they could put lights up

:21:29.:21:30.

It is a total waste having lights on all night."

:21:31.:21:34.

While Martin asks "What about fitting street lights

:21:35.:21:36.

Is that something that might be worth thinking about,

:21:37.:21:39.

Today's Royal visit to Hull has been all about the Prince of Wales

:21:40.:21:45.

They're the latest members of the Royal Family to visitthe City

:21:46.:21:52.

But, as Katy Austin reports, that's not always been the case.

:21:53.:21:57.

It's not every day you get a royal visit.

:21:58.:21:59.

Today crowds in Hull made the most of it.

:22:00.:22:01.

But we couldn't let an appearance by the first in line

:22:02.:22:04.

to the throne go by, without mentioning the quite

:22:05.:22:06.

different welcome given to that other royal Charles.
