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

:00:11.:00:15.

after the transfer of inmates from Birmingham.

:00:16.:00:20.

15 prisoners were moved to Hull following the riots at Birmingham

:00:21.:00:22.

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

:00:23.:00:27.

with the prisoners unhappy about being moved.

:00:28.:00:31.

Prison officers are very nervous about going to work.

:00:32.:00:33.

You shouldn't be frightened of going to work.

:00:34.:00:35.

The Government have got to do something about this crisis.

:00:36.:00:37.

I expect a statement from the Justice Secretary tomorrow in the

:00:38.:00:40.

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

:00:41.:00:44.

get a grip, especially of Hull Prison.

:00:45.:01:00.

A major road in Lincolnshire is closed tonight following

:01:01.:01:02.

The A180 Eastbound is shut between Barnetby Top

:01:03.:01:05.

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

:01:06.:01:14.

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

:01:15.:01:18.

Some had died already, while others were culled.

:01:19.:01:23.

Officials from Defra have been assisting with the clean up.

:01:24.:01:37.

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

:01:38.:01:40.

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

:01:41.:01:46.

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

:01:47.:01:49.

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

:01:50.:01:53.

More from our political editor Tim Iredale.

:01:54.:01:56.

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

:01:57.:01:59.

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

:02:00.:02:03.

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

:02:04.:02:05.

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

:02:06.:02:16.

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

:02:17.:02:19.

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

:02:20.:02:22.

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

:02:23.:02:26.

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

:02:27.:02:28.

It must be an as well as conversation.

:02:29.:02:32.

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

:02:33.:02:34.

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

:02:35.:02:39.

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

:02:40.:02:45.

when many public services are facing a financial squeeze?

:02:46.:02:50.

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

:02:51.:02:54.

tool along with the Siemans investment, along with C4DI.

:02:55.:02:56.

This city is attracting more investment, as the CBI

:02:57.:02:58.

pointed out on Monday, than any other place in Britain.

:02:59.:03:09.

So will culture provide a long-term economic boost?

:03:10.:03:11.

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

:03:12.:03:14.

The University of Lincoln is using the latest computer

:03:15.:03:25.

technology to train a new generation of blacksmiths.

:03:26.:03:27.

Students can get to grips with the trade and use a virtual

:03:28.:03:30.

reality system to learn the necessary skills.

:03:31.:03:32.

Experts say there's a major shortfall of people taking

:03:33.:03:34.

up traditional crafts, and have welcomed the move.

:03:35.:03:41.

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

:03:42.:03:44.

the ones that are retiring and we haven't got

:03:45.:03:47.

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

:03:48.:03:51.

to give them that little bit of insight and maybe to inspire

:03:52.:03:54.

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

:03:55.:04:02.

final, along with her partner, Ore Oduba.

:04:03.:04:04.

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

:04:05.:04:06.

brother Kevin and his partner Louise Redknapp.

:04:07.:04:11.

Their final dance, a jive, earned them maximum points

:04:12.:04:13.

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

:04:14.:04:19.

There is one or two patches of fog to look out for as we move

:04:20.:04:26.

I think we'll be largely cloudy and mostly dry,

:04:27.:04:29.

although you could see a spot of light rain on the east coast.

:04:30.:04:32.

Temperatures between 5 and 7 Celsius.

:04:33.:04:35.

Tomorrow looking like a similar day to today.

:04:36.:04:37.

We start off with plenty of cloud, just the chance of catching the odd

:04:38.:04:40.

spot of light rain and a few brighter intervals in the mix.

:04:41.:04:43.

Temperatures reaching a maximum of 9 Celsius,

:04:44.:04:45.

We've got a similar day as we move into Tuesday but I think we will see

:04:46.:04:52.

a little bit more in the way of sunny spells.

:04:53.:04:54.

Good evening. It's a big week for pre-Christmas travel plans and the

:04:55.:05:14.

weather can be quite challenging at times, too. We start the week with

:05:15.:05:17.

the issue of fog once again. Just about anywhere on the hills on

:05:18.:05:21.

Monday morning but at its most extensive at lower levels across

:05:22.:05:23.

parts of

:05:24.:05:25.
