A man's been arrested in connection with the death of a man who's body

:00:10.:00:14.

was found by the side of a Lincolnshire road

:00:15.:00:16.

23-year-old Chase Tate was found on the A1104 at Ulceby

:00:17.:00:22.

A 56-year-old man from the Peterborough area has been

:00:23.:00:27.

arrested on suspicion of causing death by careless driving,

:00:28.:00:30.

and failing to stop after a road traffic collision.

:00:31.:00:35.

Hull City Council has admitted it got it wrong by closing the city's

:00:36.:00:38.

Visitors to the UK City of Culture said they were disappointed to find

:00:39.:00:43.

places like the Maritime Museum and the Ferens Art Gallery shut.

:00:44.:00:47.

They will be able to see the attractions for the rest

:00:48.:00:49.

of the Easter weekend, but the council says

:00:50.:00:51.

it is likely to open them on Good Friday from next year.

:00:52.:00:54.

In Hull, the UK City of Culture, there is plenty to see and do.

:00:55.:01:00.

But for those wanting to visit the museums and art gallery today,

:01:01.:01:03.

Obviously I work full-time and I've come today to see the museums,

:01:04.:01:08.

thought I'll take in Hull City of Culture on a bank holiday

:01:09.:01:11.

We were expecting to go to the Maritime Museum and other

:01:12.:01:15.

museums in Hull at the present time so, yes, we were disappointed

:01:16.:01:19.

Yeah, it was really a shame, I was hoping to go in

:01:20.:01:25.

Hull City Council says that Hull's museums and art gallery are closed

:01:26.:01:30.

every Good Friday but they'll reopen tomorrow for the rest

:01:31.:01:32.

In fact, they're open 360 days a year and for longer

:01:33.:01:38.

But it's admitted that having them closed today was a mistake.

:01:39.:01:45.

Obviously it's Good Friday today and they're shut

:01:46.:01:46.

so probably we got that wrong, we need to look at

:01:47.:01:49.

But I think the thinking was that probably there's both rugby

:01:50.:01:53.

teams are at home today, there's lots of other things going

:01:54.:01:56.

But what fantastic news that people were so desperate

:01:57.:02:00.

to use our cultural facilities so we'll learn the lesson and we'll

:02:01.:02:03.

So while families still have the rest of Easter to enjoy the city's

:02:04.:02:08.

attractions, many feel let down to have a wasted trip today.

:02:09.:02:12.

Staff at one of Lincoln's oldest shops say they feel

:02:13.:02:19.

like they are grieving as the store prepares to close for good.

:02:20.:02:23.

Ruddocks has been run by the same family

:02:24.:02:25.

It'll shut it's doors for good this weekend blaming poor trade because

:02:26.:02:57.

of Brexit, internet shopping and a lack of parking.

:02:58.:02:58.

It's been in the same place on the high street

:02:59.:02:58.

A music festival is taking place in Hull next month which celebrates

:02:59.:03:03.

The two countries were at loggerheads over fishing

:03:04.:03:03.

rights for many years, in a dispute known as the Cod Wars.

:03:04.:03:04.

But they also have a positive shared history.

:03:05.:03:04.

Kofi Smiles has been to Iceland to find out more.

:03:05.:03:04.

Home of fjords, trolls and an unexpectedly good football team.

:03:05.:03:06.

But what has it got to with Hull, the UK City of Culture?

:03:07.:03:09.

Well, for one thing, Reykjavik is one of Hull's sister cities.

:03:10.:03:13.

Through the fishing industry, they've traded with each

:03:14.:03:15.

other for 700 years, sometimes peacefully, sometimes

:03:16.:03:18.

They were both listed in the world's top ten cities to visit

:03:19.:03:24.

It's even said that the cobblestones in Hull's old town were brought

:03:25.:03:29.

But there's cultural links too and that's what I'm here for.

:03:30.:03:34.

Voyage by Steinunn Thorarinsdottir leads proudly out to sea

:03:35.:03:38.

What many people don't realise though is that it has a sister

:03:39.:03:43.

statue 1,000 miles away in Vik, Iceland.

:03:44.:03:46.

North Atlantic Flux, one of the major music festivals

:03:47.:03:50.

of the City of Culture programme will celebrate Hull's

:03:51.:03:52.

I think you're going to be seeing a good mixture of what Hull has

:03:53.:04:03.

to offer but also things from the North Atlantic, you know,

:04:04.:04:09.

it's quite Scandinavian and then just some of my favourite things

:04:10.:04:12.

from around Britain because Britain has been instrumental,

:04:13.:04:16.

pun intended, I guess, in forming my musical DNA

:04:17.:04:21.

and my musical vocabulary throughout my life so it's a very,

:04:22.:04:24.

The sea separates us but it also gives us this shared history

:04:25.:04:31.

and this natural understanding of each other's heritage.

:04:32.:04:34.

Historically, men from both cities would trawl for fish in these waters

:04:35.:04:39.

which led to overfishing and a breakdown in relations

:04:40.:04:42.

But now through music and art, there's a friendship that

:04:43.:04:46.

thrives on so many levels, that's what John Grant

:04:47.:04:49.

and his friends will be celebrating in Hull at North Atlantic Flux.

:04:50.:04:59.

And the second episode is on the BBC News Channel at 2:30pm.

:05:00.:05:04.

And now a look at the weather forecast with Paul Mooney.

:05:05.:05:07.

Well, any showers will tend to die away as we head through the night.

:05:08.:05:11.

Long, clear spells developing, the winds a bit lighter, as well.

:05:12.:05:14.

Things turning fairly chilly, temperatures down

:05:15.:05:15.

A chilly start tomorrow and then it's a day of sunshine and showers.

:05:16.:05:20.

I think most places will hang onto some decent sunny spells,

:05:21.:05:23.

just the odd shower coming through on that brisk,

:05:24.:05:25.

That wind will make it feel quite cool as temperatures peak

:05:26.:05:35.

That's the way it's looking for tomorrow after another cold

:05:36.:05:40.

Easter Sunday looks like a cloudy one with outbreaks of rain

:05:41.:05:42.

for many of us and a cool north to northwesterly breeze as well.

:05:43.:05:43.

So that's the way it's looking as we head through the Easter weekend.

:05:44.:05:45.

I'll leave you with the summary for tomorrow and the national

:05:46.:05:48.

That is all from Look North we are back tomorrow at 6:20pm. Goodbye for

:05:49.:05:57.

now. Good evening. I don't think

:05:58.:06:11.

everybody was a happy bunny today with the weather. We had some rain.

:06:12.:06:14.

Some of it was

:06:15.:06:16.
