Here, on BBC One, it's time for the news where you are.

:00:00.:00:00.

The headlines from BBC Look North this Wednesday night.

:00:07.:00:09.

The research in Lincoln that could mean people with Parkinson's

:00:10.:00:13.

And a Yorkshire whisky - farmers here set up a distillery

:00:14.:00:18.

and claim it can rival the traditional Scottish brands.

:00:19.:00:28.

Hull City me that the Premier League relegation zone with a massive win

:00:29.:00:41.

over Middlesbrough. Join me for the updated weather forecast.

:00:42.:00:46.

New research at the University of Lincoln could GREATLY

:00:47.:00:48.

improve our understanding of Parkinson's disease.

:00:49.:00:50.

There's currently no cure for the condition,

:00:51.:00:51.

which affects the brain and can lead to severe muscle

:00:52.:00:54.

But scientists studying eye movement in people with the disease

:00:55.:01:00.

believe their findings could lead to an earlier diagnosis and help

:01:01.:01:02.

Here's our Health Correspondent Vicky Johnson.

:01:03.:01:15.

Karen, from Lincoln, was only in her 40s when she was first diagnosed

:01:16.:01:23.

with Parkinson's. It can be horrendous, to the point of how many

:01:24.:01:26.

medications you have to take to control the symptoms, get out and

:01:27.:01:31.

about in public. People assume you're walking funny because you can

:01:32.:01:34.

be shabbily, they assume you are drunk. Every hour someone in the UK

:01:35.:01:40.

is told they have Parkinson's. High-profile sufferers include Billy

:01:41.:01:44.

Connelly, Bob Hoskins and of course Muhammad Ali. Parkinson's affects

:01:45.:01:51.

people differently. The main symptoms are shaking, and stiff

:01:52.:01:55.

muscles. People develop the condition when they don't produce

:01:56.:01:58.

enough of the chemical dopamine. Some of the nerve cells in their

:01:59.:02:03.

brain have died. As of yet there is no cure, but symptoms can be

:02:04.:02:06.

controlled through a combination of drugs, physiotherapy and

:02:07.:02:12.

occasionally surgery. This is why Karen has agreed to take part in

:02:13.:02:15.

research carried out at the University of Lincoln. They are

:02:16.:02:23.

using computerised eye trackers to analyse how people with Parkinson's

:02:24.:02:28.

control their eye movements. You can measure movements very precisely.

:02:29.:02:33.

Picking up subtle differences in people with Parkinson's, than those

:02:34.:02:37.

without. One potential benefit for that, maybe then made the sign to

:02:38.:02:42.

pick up early diagnosis and the condition. Part of the reason it is

:02:43.:02:46.

important, when symptoms of Parkinson's become obvious there may

:02:47.:02:51.

be up to half, more than half of the brain cells are affected. If we can

:02:52.:02:57.

catch it earlier, and accurately we will be in a better position to

:02:58.:03:02.

treat earlier and potentially slow, stop or reverse the condition. The

:03:03.:03:09.

last significant drugs discovery was 50 years ago for Parkinson's. While

:03:10.:03:13.

Karen has recently had brain surgery to ease symptoms, what she and other

:03:14.:03:16.

sufferers are looking for now is a breakthrough.

:03:17.:03:18.

People facing eviction from a chalet park in East Yorkshire say

:03:19.:03:26.

the council has treated them without compassion.

:03:27.:03:30.

Yesterday a judge threw out the case against William Flannigan -

:03:31.:03:33.

the owner of Lakeminster Park near Beverley - who had been

:03:34.:03:35.

accused of mis-selling homes for year-round use.

:03:36.:03:37.

People living on the site have been served an eviction notice

:03:38.:03:40.

by East Riding of Yorkshire Council, which say it'll help

:03:41.:03:42.

Coming in 2010, we have paid full continue their fight to stay.

:03:43.:03:52.

Coming in 2010, we have paid full council tax, had our bins emptied,

:03:53.:03:56.

voted. None of those things you do if you live in holiday home.

:03:57.:03:59.

Police say they've received 'a lot of information' following yesterdays

:04:00.:04:01.

appeal to missing mum Samantha Baldwin.

:04:02.:04:04.

The 40-year-old, who's from Newark, went

:04:05.:04:05.

It's believed she's with her two boys, six-year-old Lewis and nine

:04:06.:04:09.

Police say their inquiry is focussing on Nottinghamshire

:04:10.:04:12.

Genius Foods - which makes gluten-free food -

:04:13.:04:18.

is making more than half of its staff in Hull redundant.

:04:19.:04:21.

78 jobs will go at the bakery in the city.

:04:22.:04:24.

It was taken over by the company four years ago.

:04:25.:04:28.

Staff have been asked to take either voluntary or compulsory redundancy.

:04:29.:04:33.

Two North East Lincolnshire libraries have employed security

:04:34.:04:34.

guards to help them cope with disruption caused

:04:35.:04:36.

The council says groups of between 15 and 20 youngsters have

:04:37.:04:40.

been causing problems in Grimsby and Immingham -

:04:41.:04:42.

and that the security staff are a temporary measure.

:04:43.:04:50.

The Polish Ambassador to the United Kingdom says he's

:04:51.:04:52.

worried about what will happen to Polish people living

:04:53.:04:54.

in Boston as the Brexit process gets under way.

:04:55.:04:58.

He made the comments on a visit to the town today.

:04:59.:05:01.

Fifteen percent of people living in Boston were born outside the UK.

:05:02.:05:05.

The Prime Minister, Theresa May, says the free movement of people

:05:06.:05:07.

from the EU to the UK could be extended after Brexit.

:05:08.:05:10.

Seventy five percent of people in Boston voted to leave the EU.

:05:11.:05:17.

I hope that during negotiations it will be one of the first points,

:05:18.:05:26.

because the future of families, individuals, the future of companies

:05:27.:05:32.

of businessmen, and businesses from a very important. Uncertainty is a

:05:33.:05:34.

bad thing. Yorkshire's first whisky

:05:35.:05:36.

distillery has been built by farmers near Bridlington,

:05:37.:05:38.

who say they can compete with Farmers have been sending barley

:05:39.:05:40.

north of the border for years but have now decided to keep it

:05:41.:05:50.

closer to home, in hopes of creating a drink that'll one day

:05:51.:05:53.

be as popular as Scotch. The barley that's just starting

:05:54.:05:56.

to sprout in these fields on the Yorkshire Wolds used to end

:05:57.:06:00.

up in Scotland, used to make a drink The Yorkshire Wolves are the Premier

:06:01.:06:20.

barley growing area in the UK. 90% is grown in this area. We felt we

:06:21.:06:22.

had to keep summer that here. Whiskey is distilled beer like

:06:23.:06:34.

cognac brand wine. You are taking barley, you mail it. When mulled

:06:35.:06:42.

barley, grist and water meet something magical happens. Enzymes

:06:43.:06:46.

transmit starch and sugar. When used in each you get alcohol. The alcohol

:06:47.:06:52.

rises up, through the pipes, then convinces down. What you are left

:06:53.:06:57.

with is this clear and milky coloured liquid. I know what you are

:06:58.:07:01.

thinking, that does not look like whiskey. It is from the barrels that

:07:02.:07:04.

whiskey gets Keller. In fact it has to be in these

:07:05.:07:06.

barrels for at least three years before you can officially call

:07:07.:07:09.

it a whisky. They won't know how it tastes

:07:10.:07:11.

for another couple of years. We have Yorkshire barley, Yorkshire

:07:12.:07:19.

water from the farm. The people from Yorkshire running the distillery.

:07:20.:07:24.

The distilleries operating in Scotland, you can count on one hand

:07:25.:07:27.

the ones that have a similar ethos to us. We we can to make sure we

:07:28.:07:32.

create something bloody good to drink.

:07:33.:07:33.

The team also hope the distillery will become a must-see attraction

:07:34.:07:40.

with tourists holidaying on the Yorkshire coast.

:07:41.:07:49.

Hull City moved out of the Premier League relegation

:07:50.:07:52.

zone tonight with a vital win over Middlesbrough.

:07:53.:07:54.

The Tigers won 4-2 at the KCOM Stadium to go

:07:55.:07:57.

Hull City needed to get the job done, and in some style, too. 4-2

:07:58.:08:15.

win over strugglers Middlesbrough. Three goals in 20 minutes in the

:08:16.:08:17.

first half, and another one in the first half, and another one in the

:08:18.:08:20.

second half to make things say. That led to some very happy supporters

:08:21.:08:23.

coming out of the ground at full-time. Yes, I have started to

:08:24.:08:29.

believe it could be yet. We could be staying up. Fingers crossed with the

:08:30.:08:31.

next few matches. Really good feeling. Super. Right on the ball

:08:32.:08:38.

tonight, really quick. Never been more excited, better than my wedding

:08:39.:08:44.

day. Fantastic stuff. Get ready Manchester City, we're coming on

:08:45.:08:49.

Saturday. Manchester City better be ready, they're the next opponents

:08:50.:08:53.

for Hull City this weekend. This team will be really fired up. This

:08:54.:08:57.

result takes them out of the bottom three, out of the relegation zone,

:08:58.:09:02.

for the first time in five months. With seven games left to play, I

:09:03.:09:06.

would not bet against them doing it, staying in the Premier League next

:09:07.:09:07.

season. Great night for Hull City, I season. Great night for Hull City, I

:09:08.:09:15.

hope that chap's wife was not watching tonight. You can see the

:09:16.:09:18.
