18/12/2016 Look North (East Yorkshire and Lincolnshire)

we are back with the late news at 11.00pm.

It's understood there's been minor disorder at Hull Prison,

after the transfer of inmates from Birmingham.

15 prisoners were moved to Hull following the riots at Birmingham

It's understood one wing was closed for a couple of hours this morning,

with the prisoners unhappy about being moved.

Prison officers are very nervous about going to work.

You shouldn't be frightened of it going to work.

The Government have got to do something about this crisis.

I expect a statement from the Justice Secretary tomorrow in the

House of Commons and I'll be making clear to her that I expect her to

get a grip, especially of Hull Prison.

A protection zone is still in place around a farm in Lincolnshire,

The disease was found in turkeys at a farm in Austen Fen,

Some had died already, while others were culled.

Officials from Defra have been assisting with the clean up.

Senior politicians have called for the North to get a greater share

With two weeks to go until Hull becomes UK City of Culture,

some claim it's unfair that London receives around 15 times more

per head of the population than other parts of the country.

Here's our political editor Tim Iredale.

The North has always been the poor relation when it comes to funding

In 2014, the Government-funded Arts Council gave projects in London

the equivalent of ?69 per head of the population, compared

So will Hull's status as UK City of Culture make a difference?

The Arts Council have put currently ?4-5 million into this city for City

of Culture and it's part of a legacy programme.

We need to be very careful with this national arts argument.

It's turned into an either or conversation and it cannot be.

It must be an as well as conversation.

No-one's saying that London should have less education

Why should it have less arts so we can have more?

But should taxpayers' money be spent on arts and culture at a time

when many public services are facing a financial squeeze?

Culture cannot regenerate a city by itself but it's a very powerful

tool along with the Siemans investment, along with C4DI.

This city is attracting more investment as was pointed on Monday

So will culture provide a long-term economic boost?

We'll find out after the sun has set on 2017.

The latest computer technology is being used to teach one

of the oldest crafts to a new generation.

It says it wants to encourage more people to get involved in trades

At Chainbridge Forge in Spalding, one of the world's oldest

Here, blacksmiths with a lifetime of experience bend,

But as those who have the skill and knowledge get older,

a new generation needs to enter the trade.

And that's where the latest virtual reality technology comes in.

So if you look on the floor to your left, you should

If you pick that up, you can pour that coal onto the pile.

At the University of Lincoln, they have built a virtual

You can get younger people more interested in the history

and heritage but through modern technology that they understand.

Users can understand the basic principles between blacksmithing

and the hope is that young people go on to take it up for real.

The Heritage Arts Alliance says there is a shortage of workers

for these skills and this technology could help.

We need at least 4,000 young people to be trained each year to replace

the ones that are retiring and we haven't got enough.

To my mind, it's a great opportunity to break that ice.

Blacksmith Chris Hammond says the virtual forge

Young people can have a go and see what they think.

The main thing is, as opposed to coming in and doing the real

thing, it's not costing for material and time to do it.

Eventually the university hopes to develop a virtual village that

will allow users to experience a whole range of traditional crafts

and even receive one-to-one training from experts all over the world.

Grimsby's Joanne Clifton has won this year's Strictly Come Dancing

final, along with her partner, Ore Oduba.

They were competing against two other couples, including Joanne's

brother Kevin and his partner Louise Redknapp.

Their final dance, a jive, earned them maximum points

and a viewer's vote saw them crowned this year's champions.

One or two patches of fog to look out for through the night tonight.

I think we'll stay largely dry but plenty of cloud around,

allow there is just the chance of catching the odd spot

of light rain into the early hours on the east coast.

Temperatures falling to an overnight low of between 5 and 7 Celsius.

Tomorrow is looking similar to today.

We'll start off with plenty of cloud around and just the chance

of catching the odd spot of rain through the day.

Some brighter intervals in the mix as well.

Temperatures reaching a maximum of nine Celsius,

Hello. Exactly a week to Christmas but it did not feel that way in

north-east Scotland today with
