0:00:03 > 0:00:05dip overnight. The full forecast shortly.
0:00:14 > 0:00:17New figures show there's been a big rise in the number of winter deaths
0:00:17 > 0:00:27in our area over last year.
0:00:31 > 0:00:35In the area covering Lincolnshire, the rise was 60%. In the Yorkshire
0:00:35 > 0:00:38and Humber, a big rise as well.
0:00:38 > 0:00:41The peak for the higher death rate was in January and was linked
0:00:41 > 0:00:44to victims of a dominant strain of flu, coupled with lower
0:00:44 > 0:00:45than average temperatures.
0:00:45 > 0:00:47Campaigners for the elderly say fuel poverty is partly to blame
0:00:47 > 0:00:50and demanding more action to keep old people warm in the winter.
0:00:50 > 0:00:52Our health correspondent, Vicky Johnson reports.
0:00:52 > 0:00:54Most of these tap dancers are in their seventies and eighties,
0:00:54 > 0:00:57but they say keeping active keeps them well and, importantly during
0:00:57 > 0:00:59the winter, it keeps them warm.
0:00:59 > 0:01:04They say too many older people fall victim to the cold.I think it is
0:01:04 > 0:01:08probably because they can't afford to put the heating on. This is why I
0:01:08 > 0:01:12come out, you can't have it on all day and if you sit at home and
0:01:12 > 0:01:15stagnate, your mind goes. Got to keep your mind active as well as
0:01:15 > 0:01:15your body.
0:01:15 > 0:01:19Age UK runs lunch clubs like this one in Hull and is urging older
0:01:19 > 0:01:21people to ensure they do everything they can to protect themselves
0:01:21 > 0:01:22against the cold weather.
0:01:22 > 0:01:28But they fear fuel poverty is still an issue.
0:01:28 > 0:01:32People aren't turning the heating up when it gets cold and when we have a
0:01:32 > 0:01:38cold snap, they worry, because it's been very mild and they know what
0:01:38 > 0:01:41their bills are and then you get a cold snap and they'll really worried
0:01:41 > 0:01:47about how much that is going to add to what they have to pay.
0:01:47 > 0:01:49Nationally, there were almost 32,000 excess winter deaths among
0:01:49 > 0:01:51the over-65s from cold-related illnesses such as heart attacks
0:01:51 > 0:01:53and strokes.
0:01:53 > 0:01:56In Yorkshire and the Humber, there were 3,500 winter deaths -
0:01:56 > 0:02:00up from the previous year, which was just over 2,000.
0:02:00 > 0:02:02In the East Midlands, which covers Lincolnshire,
0:02:02 > 0:02:06there were 3,000 deaths - again up from the previous year,
0:02:06 > 0:02:11which was 1,700.
0:02:11 > 0:02:13Flu can be a killer, especially on older people or those
0:02:13 > 0:02:15experiencing other illnesses.
0:02:15 > 0:02:18This is why there's such a drive to get the most vulnerable
0:02:18 > 0:02:24vaccinated each year.
0:02:24 > 0:02:27It's not actually a live vaccine, so it can't actually give you the flu.
0:02:27 > 0:02:29More than 1,000 frontline staff at Hull's city health care
0:02:29 > 0:02:32partnership have had the flu jab this year to help stop
0:02:32 > 0:02:36the spread of the virus.
0:02:36 > 0:02:39Obviously, if you prevent yourself having the flu, then you prevent
0:02:39 > 0:02:42your loved ones and other people actually catching the flu as well,
0:02:42 > 0:02:47so it can have a knock-on effect. If someone has an underlying chest
0:02:47 > 0:02:51condition or hard condition, it can worsen the condition, they can
0:02:51 > 0:02:52become extremely poorly.
0:02:52 > 0:02:55The advice then is that we should all be doing everything possible
0:02:55 > 0:02:59to protect ourselves - and to keep ourselves warm
0:02:59 > 0:03:09and well this winter.
0:03:09 > 0:03:12Planned changes to Minor Injuries units in East Yorkshire will not be
0:03:12 > 0:03:15reviewed by the Government.
0:03:15 > 0:03:16In March, the East Riding of Yorkshire
0:03:16 > 0:03:18Clinical Commissioning Group announced it would shut the unit
0:03:18 > 0:03:20at Hornsea Cottage Hospital and downgrade the units

0:03:24 > 0:03:27An independent panel of experts have told Health Secretary Jeremy Hunt
0:03:27 > 0:03:29that a Government review is unnecssary and any issues should
0:03:29 > 0:03:30be addressed locally.
0:03:30 > 0:03:32An emergency meeting between the east Riding clinical commissioning
0:03:32 > 0:03:36group and local MPs will take place tomorrow.They need to think again
0:03:36 > 0:03:41because they haven't got the support of local doctors, all of the
0:03:41 > 0:03:45Holderness GPs say no to this, they haven't got the support of the
0:03:45 > 0:03:48Council, who strongly oppose it and they don't have the support of the
0:03:48 > 0:03:51elected representatives in terms of members of Parliament and certainly
0:03:51 > 0:03:55don't have the support of the people. They need to think again and
0:03:55 > 0:03:58we will tell them that in a straightforward way as we can
0:03:58 > 0:04:01tomorrow afternoon.And we will let you know what happens tomorrow.
0:04:01 > 0:04:04A child has been hit by a car in Hull this morning.
0:04:04 > 0:04:06The accident happened close to the junction of Marfleet Lane
0:04:07 > 0:04:10and Preston Road.
0:04:10 > 0:04:11A 13-year-old was treated by the ambulance service,
0:04:11 > 0:04:14although the extent of the injuries is not yet known.
0:04:14 > 0:04:15An investigation is underway.
0:04:15 > 0:04:19An East Yorkshire biofuel plant on has halted production
0:04:19 > 0:04:21An East Yorkshire biofuel plant has halted production

0:04:30 > 0:04:37Vivergo in Dewars Hull say they need further assurances that green fuels
0:04:37 > 0:04:38have a future. -- in Hull.
0:04:38 > 0:04:40The Government says it's committed to cutting emissions,
0:04:40 > 0:04:44but hasn't yet said when or if it will pass a law meaning more
0:04:44 > 0:04:45bioethanol goes into fuel.
0:04:45 > 0:04:53Katie Austin is at the Virgo at the moment. How many people work there?
0:04:53 > 0:04:55150 people work here, and Vivergo says 3,000 jobs
0:04:55 > 0:05:01are in its supply chain.
0:05:01 > 0:05:05But no production of bio ethanol, a fuel that is essentially very strong
0:05:05 > 0:05:08alcohol made from wheat, no production is going on at the
0:05:08 > 0:05:11moment, only maintenance and we don't know when production will
0:05:11 > 0:05:15start again. Vivergo is in trouble for a peculiar reason, not just
0:05:15 > 0:05:19because market conditions are challenging, which is true and
0:05:19 > 0:05:23something all businesses face, but also because the business's entire
0:05:23 > 0:05:25business model relies on a commitment from government that
0:05:25 > 0:05:27hasn't yet materialised.
0:05:27 > 0:05:37Opened in 2013, this £350 million plant near Hedon is Europe's
0:05:37 > 0:05:40Opened in 2013, this £350 million plant near Hedon is one of Europe's
0:05:40 > 0:05:41biggest bioethanol plant.
0:05:41 > 0:05:43Wheat from local farms is brewed and distilled into fuel.
0:05:43 > 0:05:46Normally, I couldn't be standing here because this is where 120
0:05:46 > 0:05:49lorries come to deliver wheat and these eight fermenting tanks are
0:05:49 > 0:05:54normally full of wheat beer ready to be turned into bio ethanol but at
0:05:54 > 0:05:56the moment, production has almost ground to a halt.
0:05:56 > 0:05:58Vivergo partly blames the Government for its shutdown.
0:05:58 > 0:06:00Bioethanol is mixed into petrol, making up 5%
0:06:00 > 0:06:02of the fuel you buy at the pump.
0:06:02 > 0:06:05Vivergo wants that bioethanol content to rise to 10% -
0:06:06 > 0:06:07a mixture called E10.
0:06:07 > 0:06:12It expected that to happen, as the Government wants more
0:06:12 > 0:06:20transport fuel to come from renewable sources
0:06:20 > 0:06:21by 2020 - 10% in fact.
0:06:21 > 0:06:24But a full roll-out of E10 has been delayed, with no
0:06:24 > 0:06:25introduction date set.
0:06:25 > 0:06:29If E10 isn't rolled out across the UK and more broadly across Europe,
0:06:29 > 0:06:34the industry is not viable in its current state, so there will
0:06:34 > 0:06:39inevitably be casualties. Investors and others have put their money
0:06:39 > 0:06:43behind policy ideas and legislation set by government. What we are
0:06:43 > 0:06:45calling for is them to follow through on those commitments.
0:06:45 > 0:06:47Vivergo's entire business model is now under threat.
0:06:47 > 0:06:51Some local farmers are also concerned.
0:06:51 > 0:06:52Most of our wheat goes to Vivergo.
0:06:52 > 0:06:55It will have an effect on us.
0:06:55 > 0:06:59It will have an affect mostly on price, it does mean our wheat,
0:06:59 > 0:07:02because it is so close to the factory, it is worth more than
0:07:02 > 0:07:04almost anywhere else in the country at the moment.
0:07:04 > 0:07:06In a statement, the Government's Department
0:07:06 > 0:07:07for Transport told us:
0:07:13 > 0:07:21But it has concerns about vehicles being compatable with E10 -
0:07:21 > 0:07:25and that it could cost customers more.
0:07:25 > 0:07:29The Government has to do what is politically correct and at the
0:07:29 > 0:07:32moment, E10 does cost more than a conventional fuel and it is a matter
0:07:32 > 0:07:37of people have rising costs and it is what is politically acceptable.
0:07:37 > 0:07:42The Virgo insists cutting emissions should come before cutting costs.
0:07:42 > 0:07:50The Virgo fears that the Government's focus when it comes to
0:07:50 > 0:07:57reducing production means the focus has changed to electric cars. The
0:07:57 > 0:08:03company says that is nowhere near ready but this is when it comes to
0:08:03 > 0:08:06producing for vehicles and transport. It wants E10 produced in
0:08:06 > 0:08:10early 2018 and is lobbying the Government to commit to that,
0:08:10 > 0:08:13pointing out not only can it help the environment but jobs in East
0:08:13 > 0:08:16Yorkshire are at risk as well.
0:08:16 > 0:08:18Home owners in one part of Bridlington will have to apply
0:08:18 > 0:08:25for planning permission if they want to paint the outside
0:08:25 > 0:08:30of their property in bright colours.
0:08:30 > 0:08:32East Riding Council wants to introduce an approved colour
0:08:32 > 0:08:34palette of pastel shades for the seaside town.
0:08:34 > 0:08:38Some owners say they should be able to paint their houses
0:08:38 > 0:08:39whatever colour they like.
0:08:39 > 0:08:41Victoria Holland reports.
0:08:41 > 0:08:43They're a British seaside quirk - brightly painted houses,
0:08:43 > 0:08:45a splash of colour, lining the seafront.
0:08:45 > 0:08:47But on these streets in Bridlington, owners may soon be restricted
0:08:47 > 0:08:53on the colours they want to use.
0:08:53 > 0:08:57We have drawn up a colour palette pastel shades. If they pick
0:08:57 > 0:09:01something off the list, they can do that, fine, no permission. If they
0:09:01 > 0:09:05wanted a different colour, they would have to seek planning
0:09:05 > 0:09:08permission. That is not to say we would say no, it would give the
0:09:08 > 0:09:11Council the opportunity to think how it fits in the conservation area.
0:09:11 > 0:09:13Traditionally this crescent in Bridlington's old town
0:09:13 > 0:09:15was all the same colour when it was built in
0:09:15 > 0:09:16the late Victorian era.
0:09:16 > 0:09:19But since then, some coloured houses have been introduced.
0:09:19 > 0:09:21And some places have made brightly coloured houses a tourist
0:09:21 > 0:09:22attraction in their own right.
0:09:22 > 0:09:25Tobomory on the Isle of Mull became the setting
0:09:25 > 0:09:27for the children's TV series Balamory, thanks
0:09:27 > 0:09:32to its bright houses.
0:09:32 > 0:09:35The houses on these streets are part of a conservation area, which
0:09:35 > 0:09:39already means they have restrictions on them. Now the council wants to
0:09:39 > 0:09:41introduce a limited palette of colours they can be painted, but
0:09:41 > 0:09:44some owners I spoke to said they should be able to paint their houses
0:09:44 > 0:09:50whatever colour they like.When they start going, you know, read and
0:09:50 > 0:09:53alumina screen and shocking thing, no. No. They just look silly, don't
0:09:53 > 0:10:00they?I'd rather they were painted than just fall to ruin, absolutely.
0:10:00 > 0:10:05It depends on the colour. If it is a nice colour, yeah, it is a good
0:10:05 > 0:10:12idea, might make it a bit brighter, a bit more jazzy.
0:10:13 > 0:10:14But others disagree.
0:10:14 > 0:10:16Andrew and Cyndi, who own The Carlton B&B, think
0:10:16 > 0:10:17the houses should all match.
0:10:17 > 0:10:23I think it is a good idea, fit keeps everybody in similar paints and
0:10:23 > 0:10:25colours, it will brighten up the area and just make it look better.
0:10:25 > 0:10:28If the plans are approved, The council says it wouldn't make
0:10:28 > 0:10:31owners change any of the existing colours, but any new paint
0:10:31 > 0:10:33jobs that don't fit into the approved palette would have
0:10:33 > 0:10:39to get planning permission.
0:10:39 > 0:10:44You just know that people are going to be discussing this one. Your
0:10:44 > 0:10:48views, then, is it right to limit the shades of paint on these houses
0:10:48 > 0:10:53or should owners be able to use whatever colours they like or would
0:10:53 > 0:10:55it affect the area where you live?
0:10:55 > 0:10:56whatever colours they like or would it affect the area where you live?
0:10:56 > 0:11:00It could be anywhere. Are you happy to get your colour checked from the
0:11:00 > 0:11:06chart, like a colour chart and some properties Gordie, not just in the
0:11:06 > 0:11:10resort but in other places? Where? Which is the worst? Your views on
0:11:10 > 0:11:18this one, the colour chart is there. The addresses...
0:11:24 > 0:11:31Last week, she dined with Her Majesty the Queen.
0:11:31 > 0:11:34Today, Hull's Bee Lady, Jean Bishop, has once again been in the limelight
0:11:34 > 0:11:36as she was handed the Freedom of the City of Hull.
0:11:36 > 0:11:39It's come in recognition of her remarkable efforts raising
0:11:39 > 0:11:41money for charity for more than quarter of a century.
0:11:41 > 0:11:42Laura Foster has more.
0:11:42 > 0:11:46She's raised more than £100,000 for charity,
0:11:46 > 0:11:49carried the Olympic Torch, met the Queen and won
0:11:49 > 0:11:51a pride of Britain award.
0:11:51 > 0:11:55This morning, Jean Bishop was dressed up for today's ceremony
0:11:55 > 0:11:57but hadn't quite twigged the significance of
0:11:57 > 0:11:58what she was off to.
0:11:58 > 0:11:59Are you excited?
0:11:59 > 0:12:04Yes, when I get home for a cup of tea.
0:12:04 > 0:12:06The Freedom of the City is the highest accolade
0:12:07 > 0:12:08a local council can give.
0:12:08 > 0:12:09Previous winners in Hull include Nelson Mandela,
0:12:09 > 0:12:11politician John Prescott, activist Helen Suzman
0:12:11 > 0:12:16and the actor sir Tom Courtney.
0:12:16 > 0:12:20It doesn't give her the powers to herd sheep through the city,
0:12:20 > 0:12:23but the council says if Jean wants to, they won't stop her.
0:12:23 > 0:12:28I think she sets a real example to people in this city.
0:12:28 > 0:12:30She's gone out there in all sorts of weather
0:12:30 > 0:12:32and people just warm to her.
0:12:32 > 0:12:37They are drawn to her.
0:12:37 > 0:12:43It's an honour to say how we respect and admire Jean Bishop.
0:12:43 > 0:12:46After a long-anticipated cup of tea, Jean told me this award
0:12:46 > 0:12:48is beyond her wildest dreams.
0:12:48 > 0:12:50I was choked.
0:12:50 > 0:12:52I couldn't look at them because I think tears
0:12:52 > 0:12:57would fall down my face, but I was so grateful.
0:12:57 > 0:13:01I never expected anybody to know me like that.
0:13:01 > 0:13:05I mean, you don't think of people knowing you all over, do you?
0:13:05 > 0:13:07Well, I don't.
0:13:07 > 0:13:10Her family says they're also very touched by the award.
0:13:10 > 0:13:11So proud, you know?
0:13:11 > 0:13:13It was so emotional.
0:13:13 > 0:13:15Everyone was saying good words about my mother.
0:13:15 > 0:13:18It was really very good.
0:13:18 > 0:13:22We see it every day and you tend to take things for granted
0:13:22 > 0:13:25but what she's actually achieved is incredible.
0:13:25 > 0:13:29To be only the second lady in 130 years to receive
0:13:29 > 0:13:34this award is, well, it's mind-boggling, really.
0:13:34 > 0:13:37You'd think that now she's turned 95 and received
0:13:37 > 0:13:40the highest honour possible, she might give fundraising a rest.
0:13:41 > 0:13:42No, nothing stops me.
0:13:42 > 0:13:46It's just one of those things.
0:13:46 > 0:13:52I go collecting,
0:13:52 > 0:13:53and go collecting again.
0:13:53 > 0:14:01It's just in my life.
0:14:01 > 0:14:04She is fantastic, Bee Lady Jean Bishop, who has received the
0:14:04 > 0:14:04She is fantastic, Bee Lady Jean Bishop, who has received the freedom
0:14:04 > 0:14:11of the city today, well done to Jean, if you are watching. I'm sure
0:14:11 > 0:14:13she is. Thank you the tuning in.
0:14:13 > 0:14:14Still ahead tonight:
0:14:14 > 0:14:15Service cuts in the countryside -
0:14:15 > 0:14:18calls to bring forward cash bonuses to tempt GPs to rural areas.
0:14:18 > 0:14:22A replica of Amy Johnson's plane Made in Hull by prisoners
0:14:22 > 0:14:23for City of Culture -
0:14:23 > 0:14:33now there's anger as it will be taken down and sent to York.
0:14:38 > 0:14:43Tonight's photo was taken by Perry and it is Hornsea. Another picture
0:14:43 > 0:14:49tomorrow at the same time. Good evening, Alan Robson writes in,
0:14:49 > 0:15:00we'll away Marwin Evans get the high water times correct tonight? -- will
0:15:00 > 0:15:02Owain. I'm going to blame Paul Hudson and
0:15:02 > 0:15:05you know why? He is not here to defend himself.
0:15:05 > 0:15:09He put them together and they were wrong!
0:15:09 > 0:15:12That's absolutely right. I'm sure they'll ride tonight. I
0:15:12 > 0:15:17have double checked them and they are perfect. Yesterday, I was
0:15:17 > 0:15:17talking about the surface
0:15:17 > 0:15:18are perfect. Yesterday, I was talking about the surface winds,
0:15:18 > 0:15:21which you quite like. It looks like we have westerly winds across our
0:15:21 > 0:15:25region but if you pull out, you can see they are not really westerlies,
0:15:25 > 0:15:30you can chase them back up to the north. If I shimmied the camera out
0:15:30 > 0:15:34further and switch on the air mass, you can see it is colder coming from
0:15:34 > 0:15:38the north and there is a sharp contrast well below us, a
0:15:38 > 0:15:41temperature contrast. These cold winds sort of moving down towards
0:15:41 > 0:15:47the south and will stay with us over the next few days. Tomorrow, it will
0:15:47 > 0:15:51feel colder but for us, it will be largely dry and it's a very similar
0:15:51 > 0:15:55story to what we could use for a headline tonight. Looking at the
0:15:55 > 0:15:59map, not very much going on, a lot of dry weather around, the winds
0:15:59 > 0:16:02continuing to ease as we head through the evening and temperatures
0:16:02 > 0:16:07going down for nearly two or three Celsius around town. Outside of
0:16:07 > 0:16:09town, colder than that and I think we will see a frost tomorrow
0:16:09 > 0:16:18morning. The accurate and correct tide times... So a cold start to the
0:16:18 > 0:16:22day, we could see a bit of ice on surfaces, where we have wet surfaces
0:16:22 > 0:16:27after today's showers. Look at that, gorgeous, plenty of sunshine. It is
0:16:27 > 0:16:31going to be a good-looking day if you're looking out of the window but
0:16:31 > 0:16:36if you are outside, a cold feeling day, temperatures more than likely
0:16:36 > 0:16:40getting to about six Celsius only tomorrow. Lighter winds, it will
0:16:40 > 0:16:43certainly feel colder if you are out and about but a good day if you
0:16:43 > 0:16:49chuck an extra layer arm. Let's have a look at the Magic Numbers, six,
0:16:49 > 0:16:53five, six, seven, that is where we are going to get as far as daytime
0:16:53 > 0:16:57highs are concerned. So colder feel but hopefully a lot of blue sky with
0:16:57 > 0:16:59but hopefully a lot of blue sky with just a few showers in the mix.
0:16:59 > 0:17:03A good-looking day on the way, is that right?
0:17:03 > 0:17:07That is correct. Thank you for more surface winds, we don't have to have
0:17:07 > 0:17:10them every night, just because I liked it.
0:17:10 > 0:17:13There are calls for the Government to bring forward cash incentives
0:17:13 > 0:17:15to encourage GPs to come to the Lincolnshire countryside.
0:17:15 > 0:17:18Villagers who have seen the closure of shops,
0:17:18 > 0:17:22post offices and banks say their way of life is already suffering,
0:17:22 > 0:17:25and the difficulty they're having seeing their GPs is now adding
0:17:25 > 0:17:26to the pressure.
0:17:26 > 0:17:35Here's our Rural Affairs Correspondent, Linsey Smith.
0:17:35 > 0:17:38Quaid, quiet, peaceful. Neither the countryside may sound idyllic but
0:17:38 > 0:17:42with a host of services closing, it's not always easy.
0:17:42 > 0:17:45The latest challenge can be getting a GP appointment.
0:17:45 > 0:17:47This man recently promised the answer.
0:17:47 > 0:17:49Next year, he'll offer
0:17:49 > 0:17:51a £20,000 handshake to tempt practitioners
0:17:51 > 0:17:56to rural spots.
0:17:56 > 0:18:00We are going to do that for 200 doctors every year and that will
0:18:00 > 0:18:01make a real difference.
0:18:01 > 0:18:03Councillor Sheila Bibb
0:18:03 > 0:18:04was a key campaigner for Mr Hunt's handshake.
0:18:04 > 0:18:09But says the scheme should happen sooner for her constituents.
0:18:09 > 0:18:15They are saying that they are having to wait quite a while to get an
0:18:15 > 0:18:20appointment, in some instances, up to three or four weeks. I know it is
0:18:20 > 0:18:24different depending on where you go. Some surgeries don't have a major
0:18:24 > 0:18:25problem that some of them do.
0:18:25 > 0:18:29And this is why they do.
0:18:29 > 0:18:32NHS England uses a safe figure of one GP to 1,750 patients.
0:18:32 > 0:18:38The average ratio in Lincolnshire is one GP to 1,900 patients
0:18:38 > 0:18:44and in some practices, this is as high as one GP to 2,400.
0:18:44 > 0:18:54Not all doctors think a cash injection is the answer.
0:18:54 > 0:18:56Educating the public is very important in the way of self
0:18:56 > 0:18:59management. If one feels a little bit unwell and under the weather,
0:18:59 > 0:19:04they don't need to rush an appointment with their GP. They can
0:19:04 > 0:19:12take advice from 111, NHS Choices, community pharmacists, who will help
0:19:12 > 0:19:17them with self-management and self remedies.In a statement, the
0:19:17 > 0:19:18Department of
0:19:18 > 0:19:19remedies.In a statement, the Department of Health says change
0:19:19 > 0:19:22won't happen overnight but they are committed to the plans they have put
0:19:22 > 0:19:27in place. They say there were more than 3,000 GPs in training and 500
0:19:27 > 0:19:31additional medical school places, which
0:19:31 > 0:19:34additional medical school places, which means no magic solution to the
0:19:34 > 0:19:3840 GPs needed in Lincolnshire all the waiting times.
0:19:38 > 0:19:43A replica of the aircraft that Hull pioneer Amy Johnson flew
0:19:43 > 0:19:46to Australia is being removed from her home city.
0:19:46 > 0:19:54A campaign has been launched to keep the model of the Gypsy Moth in Hull.
0:19:54 > 0:19:56Its been hanging at Paragon Station after being built by inmates
0:19:56 > 0:19:59at Hull Prison and is now destined for the Elvington air
0:19:59 > 0:20:03museum in North Yorkshire.
0:20:03 > 0:20:06Leonard Brown is the Artist behind the Model of the Gipsy Moth.
0:20:06 > 0:20:09I asked him how he feels about his work being taken out of Hull.
0:20:09 > 0:20:12I'm very disappointed about the Gipsy Moth leaving Hull.
0:20:12 > 0:20:15I wouldn't necessarily describe it as being my work
0:20:15 > 0:20:18as the prisoners of Hull built it and the City of Culture
0:20:18 > 0:20:21supplied the funds.
0:20:21 > 0:20:23People feel it should stay here.
0:20:23 > 0:20:26Absolutely, everybody I've spoken to feels it should stay here.
0:20:26 > 0:20:29It's part of Hull and I would love to keep it in Hull.
0:20:29 > 0:20:32Can you not believe that there is somewhere with room for it?
0:20:32 > 0:20:36Well, I've asked around a few places and nobody seems to have any space
0:20:36 > 0:20:42or finances to cover it, to cover the insurance of it,
0:20:42 > 0:20:45when it is hung somewhere and things like that.
0:20:45 > 0:20:48I think that is mainly one of the big bugbears.
0:20:48 > 0:20:50It's going to the Air Museum at York.
0:20:50 > 0:20:53I mean, it is the home of flight there, isn't it,
0:20:53 > 0:20:56and it's only just outside of Hull, so I suppose it doesn't
0:20:56 > 0:20:57matter that much, does it?
0:20:57 > 0:20:59Yes, it does, because schoolchildren, parties
0:20:59 > 0:21:02of schoolchildren, come into the station and do
0:21:02 > 0:21:03projects on the thing.
0:21:03 > 0:21:09They are not take them on our's drive away to do that.
0:21:09 > 0:21:12They are not take them an hour's drive away to do that.
0:21:12 > 0:21:13That will be lost.
0:21:13 > 0:21:15What would you say, then, maybe to a businessman,
0:21:15 > 0:21:18somebody who runs an organisation in the city who has
0:21:18 > 0:21:19got space for it?
0:21:19 > 0:21:20What would you say?
0:21:20 > 0:21:22Because we need to act quick on this.
0:21:22 > 0:21:24We need to say, come on board, let's hear from you,
0:21:24 > 0:21:26let's find out who is out there.
0:21:26 > 0:21:29Up to now, nobody knows about it, as far as I know.
0:21:29 > 0:21:31It would have came down, would have been taken down
0:21:31 > 0:21:33and we would have known nothing about it.
0:21:33 > 0:21:36So if someone has got the space, they are watching tonight,
0:21:36 > 0:21:37get in touch with us.
0:21:37 > 0:21:38Absolutely, let's find out.
0:21:38 > 0:21:39Let's find out who's out there.
0:21:39 > 0:21:41It's ironic that we're having this conversation
0:21:41 > 0:21:43tonight because a week ago, you introduced to the Queen.
0:21:43 > 0:21:46tonight because a week ago, you were introduced to the Queen.
0:21:46 > 0:21:47How did it go, briefly?
0:21:47 > 0:21:49Absolutely fantastic and the Queen was extremely well briefed.
0:21:49 > 0:21:52She knew about the Gipsy Moth and she asked me about
0:21:52 > 0:21:54the Gipsy Moth when she came up.
0:21:54 > 0:21:56She shook hands with me, she said, hello, you've been working
0:21:56 > 0:21:59in the prison and I was taken aback a bit.
0:21:59 > 0:22:00And she knew that?
0:22:00 > 0:22:03She knew that when she spoke to me and I was taken aback a bit.
0:22:04 > 0:22:05Did you say look up there?
0:22:05 > 0:22:07I said, this is it, this is the Gipsy Moth,
0:22:07 > 0:22:09and pointed and the people who were stood behind,
0:22:09 > 0:22:11the volunteers, parted like this, like the waves.
0:22:11 > 0:22:12That's a fantastic story.
0:22:12 > 0:22:16And can you believe a week later, you are here and the plane
0:22:16 > 0:22:17is going to leave.
0:22:17 > 0:22:19Yes, very sad and I'll be disappointed if it
0:22:19 > 0:22:20goes away from Hull.
0:22:20 > 0:22:21Let's see what can be done.
0:22:21 > 0:22:23Leonard, very good to speak to you.
0:22:23 > 0:22:25Thank you very much for having me.
0:22:25 > 0:22:26Thank you.
0:22:31 > 0:22:35Maybe you are a businessman or businesswoman who has got room for
0:22:35 > 0:22:40the Gipsy Moth and would like to accommodate it. If so, get in touch.
0:22:40 > 0:22:44It can't remain at the prison and the agreement is it can't stay at
0:22:44 > 0:22:48the railway station, only until the end of the year. There is the e-mail
0:22:48 > 0:22:53and text number.
0:22:53 > 0:22:55Exclusive screenings of the Doctor Who Christmas episode
0:22:55 > 0:22:58and The Highway Rat will be shown in Hull next month.
0:22:58 > 0:23:00The final appearance of Peter Capaldi as the Doctor
0:23:00 > 0:23:02will be shown on BBC One on Christmas Day.
0:23:02 > 0:23:04But those who can't wait can catch a special preview.
0:23:04 > 0:23:07There's also an exclusive preview of an animated version
0:23:07 > 0:23:08of the classic book The Highway Rat.

0:24:03 > 0:24:06Gary Saunt has made a fabulous dreamscape inspired by local
0:24:06 > 0:24:07landscapes and people from the area.
0:24:07 > 0:24:11All year, Hull's children and young people have been hard at work making
0:24:11 > 0:24:12culture of their own.
0:24:12 > 0:24:14The Limitless festival, starting next Wednesday,

0:24:18 > 0:24:23On Saturday, the Hull Philharmonic Orchestra is marking the centenary

0:24:27 > 0:24:30Look out for surprise guest upon the bass drum.
0:24:30 > 0:24:33And also, there is a great selection of festive markets this weekend that
0:24:33 > 0:24:35might take your fancy.
0:24:35 > 0:24:38The Danish Seaman's church hosts a Scandinavian Christmas market.
0:24:38 > 0:24:42Friends of Park Street have put together a Christmas
0:24:42 > 0:24:44fayre full of singing, face painting, crafts and more.

0:25:04 > 0:25:07And if you want to see Kofi's interview with Mayor
0:25:07 > 0:25:09of London Sadiq Khan, go our City of Culture website
0:25:09 > 0:25:10at bbc.co.uk/hull2017.
0:25:10 > 0:25:13Let's get a recap of the national and regional headlines.
0:25:13 > 0:25:16A bleak outlook for the economy amid warnings that the UK is facing
0:25:16 > 0:25:18an unprecedented squeeze on living standards.
0:25:18 > 0:25:22New figures show there's been a big rise in the number of winter deaths
0:25:22 > 0:25:23in our area over last year.
0:25:23 > 0:25:24Tomorrow's weather:
0:25:24 > 0:25:26A widespread early frost.
0:25:26 > 0:25:31A breezy day with plenty of sunny spells.
0:25:31 > 0:25:36Top temperatures, 7 Celsius.
0:25:36 > 0:25:4045 Fahrenheit.
0:25:40 > 0:25:44Now, painting or getting your pain to checked before you paint your
0:25:44 > 0:25:48house, Lynn in Bridlington says I agree, people should be allowed to
0:25:48 > 0:25:52paint it whatever they like. Sandra says of the council want neutral
0:25:52 > 0:25:56colours, can they explain why this bar is bright orange, not really
0:25:56 > 0:26:01neutral. Richard says someone who lives in Bridlington, they will tell
0:26:01 > 0:26:04you anything that stands out and brings people here can only be a
0:26:04 > 0:26:08good thing. John says the council should enforce colour schemes where
0:26:08 > 0:26:12appropriate. John says in Hull in Morpeth Street, they had a common
0:26:12 > 0:26:15colour scheme and it looks really good on the terraced houses, whether
0:26:15 > 0:26:21they are Georgian or Edwardian. And finally, John says I think the local
0:26:21 > 0:26:24authority in Bridlington are doing the right thing. This scheme should
0:26:24 > 0:26:29eventually smarten the frontage of these properties in this area,
0:26:29 > 0:26:32leading to civic pride. Thank you for those, thank you for watching,
0:26:32 > 0:26:36have a nice evening. Join me later if you can add 10:30pm, if not, I
0:26:36 > 0:26:37will
