Hello and welcome to Thursday's Look North. Tonight: Anger and | :00:03. | :00:06. | |
disgust from a dead soldier's family over newspaper phone hacking | :00:06. | :00:14. | |
allegations. Brace yourself for change. The warning that children's | :00:14. | :00:17. | |
dental services could be hit by reforms to the NHS. Millionaire's | :00:17. | :00:20. | |
row. We join an exclusive gathering of some of the North's biggest | :00:20. | :00:26. | |
lottery winners. And the extraordinary shrine to the Chuckle | :00:26. | :00:30. | |
Brothers. Why this man is such a big fan of the popular children's | :00:30. | :00:33. | |
entertainers. In sport, more new signings for Sunderland, on and off | :00:33. | :00:38. | |
the pitch. And a big weekend for cricket fans as Durham and | :00:38. | :00:48. | |
:00:48. | :00:51. | ||
Yorkshire go head to head in back to back Twenty20s. "If it's true, | :00:51. | :00:59. | |
they're the lowest of the low." That was the reaction of the father | :00:59. | :01:03. | |
of a murdered soldier, after claims the News of the World may have | :01:03. | :01:06. | |
hacked the phones of servicemen's From Washington, was killed by a | :01:06. | :01:12. | |
mob in Iraq. And while's there's no evidence his family were targeted, | :01:12. | :01:16. | |
it's alleged others in the military might have been. A Tyneside | :01:16. | :01:18. | |
survivor of the London bombings has confirmed police investigating the | :01:18. | :01:24. | |
hacking claims have been in contact with her. Peter Harris reports. Six | :01:24. | :01:27. | |
years go today. The day that changed Lisa's life. She survived | :01:27. | :01:36. | |
the bombing of a London bus. Now it's emerged some victims' families | :01:36. | :01:39. | |
were targeted by newspaper phone hackers. The police have written to | :01:39. | :01:47. | |
her, too. I peel angry that those born numbers have been found and | :01:47. | :01:51. | |
that data, whether or not the they were listened to they should never | :01:52. | :01:57. | |
have been in the position of the use of the world. It is possible | :01:57. | :02:03. | |
that Lisa's fallen there was hacked, but like others, just the | :02:03. | :02:08. | |
suggestion is distressing. Among the fresh allegations is that the | :02:08. | :02:12. | |
families of dead servicemen and women have also had their | :02:12. | :02:15. | |
telephones hat, although there is no proof of that. More than 40 | :02:15. | :02:18. | |
soldiers from the north-east and Cumbria have died in Iraq and | :02:18. | :02:22. | |
Afghanistan. The families of those concerned say that if it was proved, | :02:22. | :02:32. | |
it would add to their distress. this happens, every other person is | :02:32. | :02:37. | |
going through, and we were a huge crutch to each other, so if you | :02:37. | :02:43. | |
think, somebody was listening in to that emotional trauma that you're | :02:43. | :02:49. | |
going through, it does not bear thinking about. John's son Simon | :02:49. | :02:57. | |
was among three army Redcaps from this region killed by a mob in Iraq. | :02:57. | :03:00. | |
Mr Miller stresses the police investigating hacking have not | :03:00. | :03:03. | |
spoken to him and he's unaware of other families in this region being | :03:03. | :03:08. | |
potential targets. Those are the local media are appalled by the | :03:08. | :03:12. | |
hacking scandal. One of the things that makes me sad about this affair, | :03:12. | :03:16. | |
is that we all get tarred with the same brush, because people talk | :03:16. | :03:21. | |
about the press, but 95% of the press are newspapers like the | :03:21. | :03:31. | |
:03:31. | :03:32. | ||
Northern Echo, that are embedded in their communities. Dictums like bus | :03:32. | :03:38. | |
storm victim these are unlikely to Mr News of the World when it closes. | :03:38. | :03:44. | |
-- people like bus bomb victim least are unlikely to miss the News | :03:44. | :03:54. | |
of the World when it closes. Thousands of children, receiving | :03:54. | :03:57. | |
dental work to correct crooked, teeth may have to change dentist in | :03:57. | :04:01. | |
the middle of their treatment - because of a shake-up in NHS | :04:01. | :04:03. | |
contracts. Orthodontic work - which involves fitting braces to | :04:03. | :04:07. | |
straighten children's front teeth - is free on the NHS, if the patient | :04:07. | :04:10. | |
is under 18. But dentists who provide the service will have to | :04:10. | :04:14. | |
compete for new contracts from September. And if they fail to win | :04:14. | :04:17. | |
one, the children they work with may have to travel many miles for | :04:17. | :04:20. | |
treatment. Young people can be painfully conscious of their | :04:20. | :04:23. | |
appearance. Which is why they're prepared to endure the discomfort | :04:23. | :04:26. | |
and discipline of wearing braces to give them that perfect smile. The | :04:26. | :04:30. | |
course of treatment can last for two years or more. But three out of | :04:30. | :04:33. | |
the four specialist orthodontists north of the Tyne have NHS | :04:33. | :04:36. | |
contracts that expire in just nine months time. You are seeing the | :04:36. | :04:38. | |
patient or the best part of two- and-a-half years. You have only got | :04:39. | :04:41. | |
one year of treatment being paid for. What do you do for the next | :04:41. | :04:45. | |
few months? Whatever way you are seeing the patient, you always come | :04:45. | :04:49. | |
out as the fall-guy. So why are established orthodontists, | :04:49. | :04:51. | |
including this practice in Newcastle which has been treating | :04:51. | :04:54. | |
children and teenagers for more than 20 years, having to compete | :04:54. | :04:57. | |
for NHS cash now? Well, new dental contracts were introduced five | :04:57. | :05:01. | |
years ago. Five years on, each practice got a new contract - but | :05:01. | :05:05. | |
only for a year Because the local NHS is putting three five-year | :05:05. | :05:08. | |
contracts out to tender in September. They will start in April | :05:08. | :05:10. | |
2012, and any qualified orthodontist can bid for the work. | :05:10. | :05:13. | |
Which means that big dental companies could tender the lowest | :05:13. | :05:17. | |
prices per patient and win those three contracts for north of the | :05:17. | :05:20. | |
Tyne. This company, NEO, won the other five-year contract for north | :05:20. | :05:24. | |
of Tyne last September. Its main practice is in Ashington, so the | :05:24. | :05:27. | |
future for young patients from Tyneside could be lengthy trips up | :05:27. | :05:30. | |
to Northumberland every six weeks, if their current orthodontist does | :05:30. | :05:34. | |
not win a new contract. The new body that awards NHS contracts to | :05:34. | :05:41. | |
dentists is called the North East Primary Care Services Agency. They | :05:41. | :05:46. | |
would not provide an interviewee but they did give me a statement. | :05:46. | :05:50. | |
They said: "We would like to strongly reassure patients | :05:50. | :05:52. | |
currently receiving orthodontic treatment that their treatment will | :05:52. | :05:55. | |
continue, either with their current provider or with a new | :05:55. | :06:02. | |
orthodontist." Earlier I spoke to Richard Jones of the British | :06:02. | :06:08. | |
Orthodontic Society. I asked him if it really mattered that young | :06:08. | :06:13. | |
people might have to change dentist in the middle of their treatment. | :06:13. | :06:19. | |
All orthodontists in the UK are highly trained but use different | :06:19. | :06:24. | |
types of braces. It is difficult treating a patient who has been | :06:24. | :06:27. | |
used -- who has been treated by someone else, perhaps using a brace | :06:27. | :06:32. | |
that you would not have used. So moving is not ideal for the | :06:32. | :06:37. | |
orthodontist, or or the patient. Should orthodontics still be | :06:37. | :06:41. | |
available only better under the 18s? It has been restricted in the | :06:41. | :06:49. | |
last five years to patients who have a demonstrable health need. | :06:49. | :06:52. | |
There is an index through the country to identify those cases | :06:52. | :06:58. | |
which need treatment on a health basis rather than a cosmetic basis | :06:58. | :07:02. | |
postop about one-third of their tour of year-olds would be deemed | :07:02. | :07:08. | |
to have a health issue as well as a cosmetic issue, so it is a | :07:08. | :07:18. | |

worthwhile use of NHS funds. woman's in hospital with head | :07:21. | :07:24. | |
injuries, after she was attacked near a school by a man, armed with | :07:25. | :07:28. | |
a hammer. Officers were called to the car park area outside Burradon | :07:28. | :07:31. | |
Primary School in North Tyneside around midday. The 21 year-old | :07:31. | :07:34. | |
woman's injuries are not said to be life threatening. A 23 year-old | :07:34. | :07:37. | |
man's been arrested. And a man has appeared in court in connection | :07:37. | :07:40. | |
with the discovery of a suspect package in County Durham. Police | :07:41. | :07:44. | |
carried out a controlled explosion after the package was found at | :07:44. | :07:47. | |
Coral Betting in Annfield Plain on Tuesday. Daniel Staples, who's 20 | :07:47. | :07:50. | |
and from Stanley, was remanded in custody by Consett Magistrates on | :07:50. | :07:57. | |
blackmail and bomb hoax charges. Her professionals have been | :07:57. | :08:01. | |
highlighting advice a bill to dementia sufferers in Cumbria. It | :08:01. | :08:10. | |
is part of a week of events raising awareness. All this week, Look | :08:10. | :08:16. | |
North is marking "Transplant Week." We've filmed exclusively inside the | :08:16. | :08:19. | |
country's first transplant hospital here in the North. We've heard from | :08:19. | :08:23. | |
a father who donated his wife and daughter's organs after a tragic | :08:23. | :08:26. | |
car accident. And we've seen a transplant surgeon at work. Today | :08:26. | :08:30. | |
we meet one of the most important people in the transplant world, the | :08:30. | :08:32. | |
Transplant Co-ordinator. Our health reporter Sharon Barbour joins us | :08:32. | :08:37. | |
now live from the Freeman Hospital in Newcastle. Yes, I am here in war | :08:37. | :08:43. | |
23 at Freeman Hospital, and very busy it is, too. I have some | :08:43. | :08:48. | |
youngsters behind me, I'll have a quick word with them later. First, | :08:48. | :08:53. | |
we can find out more about the transplant co-ordinator. She is | :08:53. | :08:57. | |
extremely busy, getting or gives to those desperately ill patients who | :08:57. | :09:07. | |
:09:07. | :09:14. | ||
need them. This is it being the life of a transplant co-ordinator. | :09:14. | :09:24. | |
:09:24. | :09:24. | ||
-- day in the life. Lynne's day starts with a bittersweet task. A | :09:24. | :09:29. | |
gift has arrived for a little girl who's had a heart transplant. | :09:29. | :09:34. | |
mentioned that he would like for this little most to dance again, | :09:34. | :09:44. | |
:09:44. | :09:48. | ||
this boy, I think it is always on his mind but now even more so. So, | :09:48. | :09:56. | |
he wants you to have this. Overnight the news came in that | :09:56. | :09:59. | |
someone else has donated their loved one's organs.. And a man | :09:59. | :10:03. | |
dying of lung disease has just heard the news that he may be about | :10:03. | :10:09. | |
to undergo a double lung transplant. Hello, my darling. Did you wake him | :10:09. | :10:19. | |
:10:19. | :10:22. | ||
up? Not a very donor is perfect, so if there are any questions you have | :10:22. | :10:31. | |
about the donor, and we do take smokers' lungs. She also spends | :10:31. | :10:35. | |
time on the ward with children - waiting to hear a vital organ has | :10:35. | :10:38. | |
arrived to give them a future, too. For the Rainbow, you have to have | :10:38. | :10:45. | |
the sunshine and the rain. They are the Sunshine on the side of this | :10:45. | :10:55. | |
:10:55. | :10:56. | ||
rainbow. Take care. Appears a day filled with highs and lows - was | :10:56. | :11:00. | |
that an ordinary day? Yes, we never know what we're going to find when | :11:01. | :11:09. | |
we walked in the door, in the morning. I was moved by the gift | :11:09. | :11:15. | |
from the father of that daughter who died to the other chair. It is | :11:15. | :11:20. | |
a real roller-coaster of being part of that transplant team, and for | :11:20. | :11:25. | |
all of the families. How is that patients who was having their lung | :11:25. | :11:32. | |
transplant? He's getting ready for theatre. He is now being starved, | :11:32. | :11:36. | |
and he is ready but we still don't know if belongs are going to be | :11:36. | :11:42. | |
good for him. What is the message that you as a transplant co- | :11:42. | :11:47. | |
ordinator would like to get across to people watching at home? If they | :11:47. | :11:51. | |
can stop and have that conversation after the programme and say to | :11:51. | :11:57. | |
their family, when I go, if it is before you, let them use my organs | :11:57. | :12:07. | |
:12:07. | :12:07. | ||
and then, more lives will be saved. I want to introduce you to two | :12:07. | :12:11. | |
little ones who would benefit from a transplant. What are you waiting | :12:11. | :12:17. | |
for? A heart transplant. How are you getting on? Very well, thank | :12:17. | :12:25. | |
you. Are you beating Brad us at this game? I think Paris does not | :12:25. | :12:35. | |
:12:35. | :12:37. | ||
want to start -- of his game, but we have got more on Pavis tomorrow. | :12:37. | :12:41. | |
For most of us winning the lottery is a dream that will never become a | :12:41. | :12:45. | |
reality. But somebody's got to win, and today, more than 20 Lotto | :12:45. | :12:48. | |
millionaires gathered at an exclusive garden party in County | :12:48. | :12:51. | |
Durham to celebrate their good fortune. More than �700 million has | :12:51. | :12:54. | |
been paid out in big money prizes since the Lottery started in 1994. | :12:54. | :13:02. | |
Julie Smith reports. Who wants to be a millionaire? Well they are | :13:02. | :13:04. | |
already, and that's why they're here. They're celebrating being | :13:05. | :13:08. | |
lottery millionaires. Mark Broodnell from Stockton won 14 | :13:08. | :13:16. | |
years ago. It changes your lifestyle one give you an | :13:16. | :13:19. | |
opportunity to do things you want to do with your life, holidays, | :13:19. | :13:29. | |
:13:29. | :13:29. | ||
houses, everything we all dream of, just trumpeting �1 on. -- just from | :13:29. | :13:33. | |
putting �1 on. And life's easier for these two friends. Their small | :13:34. | :13:37. | |
syndicate won over �10 million last January. Pat is building a house. | :13:37. | :13:41. | |
And Julie has bought a villa in Spain. Sometimes you just look and | :13:41. | :13:45. | |
pink, I have got this much money in the bank, but I have gone back to | :13:45. | :13:55. | |
:13:55. | :14:01. | ||
work. You got one, you've got two, three, four. Norma and Michael | :14:01. | :14:05. | |
Eggleston won four years ago in March 2007. It is nice talking to | :14:05. | :14:09. | |
people who have been through what we have been through who understand | :14:09. | :14:18. | |
it. No fancy cars? No. Have you got the yacht? No, we did not win that | :14:18. | :14:22. | |
much! Nothing too fancy then, but they do enjoy not working. And for | :14:22. | :14:32. | |
:14:32. | :14:35. | ||
the rest of us, well we can still dream. Now - I hope you've got your | :14:35. | :14:39. | |
walking boots handy for this next film. For Grundy's North this week, | :14:39. | :14:42. | |
we've sent John on a climbing expedition. And it's quite a tough | :14:42. | :14:46. | |
climb into a town's history - up the famous 199 steps of the | :14:46. | :14:56. | |
:14:56. | :14:59. | ||
headland at Whitby on the North Yorkshire coast. 199 steps up of me, | :14:59. | :15:08. | |
here, but I am going to climbdown. I have heard about people trying to | :15:08. | :15:14. | |
cycle up them, but I am going to walk up very slowly, stopping at | :15:14. | :15:19. | |
regular intervals to try and enjoy the view. And what a view it is. | :15:19. | :15:25. | |
Climbing up through the houses, you see that Whitby is a tightly packed | :15:25. | :15:29. | |
medieval town with the houses huddled together and clinging to | :15:29. | :15:32. | |
the steep sides of the valley, which makes for some very exciting | :15:33. | :15:40. | |
says. The wonderful piers, and the White House - I wonder if any pound, | :15:40. | :15:50. | |
:15:50. | :15:52. | ||
anywhere, has got a better view? -- Light House. Climbing higher, I am | :15:52. | :15:57. | |
looking down on the ropes, all made of bright, orange Pantiles, | :15:57. | :16:04. | |
originally brought from Holland, and only used in Britain along a | :16:04. | :16:10. | |
narrow strip of the East Coast. Usually when you us -- exploring an | :16:10. | :16:15. | |
ancient town you have to dig deep downwards to get to the oldest | :16:15. | :16:20. | |
parts, but in Whitby, the opposite is the case, you have to rise up a | :16:20. | :16:26. | |
of the town to reach their head land at one which the police | :16:26. | :16:31. | |
started. In the 17th century a shepherd live in the Anglo-Saxon | :16:31. | :16:36. | |
monastery here, and he was the first pope in the English language. | :16:36. | :16:45. | |
He began, a man must praise the guardian of heaven's built. And St | :16:45. | :16:50. | |
Hilda is crushing snakes behind -- beneath her feet. In those days, | :16:50. | :16:56. | |
people did not understand fossils and thought they was Max makes. And | :16:56. | :17:01. | |
St Hilda got the reputation as the one who destroyed them. If I had | :17:01. | :17:07. | |
about a week I might have a chance to do justice to all of the things | :17:07. | :17:12. | |
that are up here, I could enthuse about St Mary's Church, for example. | :17:12. | :17:17. | |
It is unlike any other in England. The insiders very odd. Some people | :17:17. | :17:21. | |
disapproved of it. I have a book at home that says there is nothing | :17:21. | :17:27. | |
beautiful about it - it is just a museum, a hotchpotch, and it is a | :17:27. | :17:32. | |
jumble of things that have been thrown away in other judges, | :17:32. | :17:36. | |
because there are box pews with little doors, and the pulpit is | :17:36. | :17:42. | |
astonishing, towering above everything. It is just a mish-mash, | :17:42. | :17:47. | |
but it is also lovable, and I cannot imagine anybody not liking | :17:47. | :17:55. | |
it. And then there is the Abbey, at the top of the hill. It was the | :17:55. | :17:59. | |
success of to the monastery of St Hilda. It was built in the 14th | :17:59. | :18:04. | |
century. If he ended a have not got rid of the monasteries, we would | :18:04. | :18:09. | |
not have any room judges, and England would be a poorer place, | :18:09. | :18:15. | |
because this is sublime. It is just so beautiful. A glorious run on a | :18:15. | :18:25. | |
:18:25. | :18:26. | ||
wonderful headland, up of a charming medieval town. -- up of -- | :18:26. | :18:36. | |
:18:36. | :18:36. | ||
above. Now, when does being a fan of something go a bit too far? For | :18:36. | :18:40. | |
example, how would you feel if your husband or wife turned one of your | :18:40. | :18:44. | |
bedrooms into a shrine? And what if it was a shrine to the Chuckle | :18:44. | :18:48. | |
Brothers? One man in County Durham has done just that, and Damian | :18:48. | :18:51. | |
O'Neil has been along to meet him. Here we are, welcome to the Chuckle | :18:51. | :18:59. | |
run. How long have you been doing this? I have been collecting | :18:59. | :19:04. | |
chuckle Brothers memorabilia are for about 10 or 11 years. Round the | :19:04. | :19:12. | |
bend, good old slapstick, custard pie, all good, family fund. Have | :19:12. | :19:17. | |
you got anything strange? I have got the chuckle Brothers browsers, | :19:17. | :19:22. | |
the original trousers from chuckle vision, from the 1980s. These are | :19:22. | :19:26. | |
the trousers they used to wear. They will not fit me. Have you | :19:26. | :19:33. | |
tried them on? I can only get one leg in! Is this an obsession? Do | :19:33. | :19:40. | |
you feel that you need help? It is just a daft hobby. Some people take | :19:40. | :19:50. | |
:19:50. | :19:50. | ||

up to you for having this hobby? has taken us for a weekend away, a | :20:11. | :20:15. | |
romantic weekend away, in Scarborough, and then I would have | :20:15. | :20:23. | |
to go and see the chuckle Brothers! You have filled this room. Spread | :20:23. | :20:31. | |

Sports news now Last night we exclusively revealed there'd been | :21:04. | :21:07. | |
Board room changes at Sunderland: Margaret Byrne was confirmed as the | :21:07. | :21:11. | |
club's new chief executive today. The legendary Bryan "Pop" Robson is | :21:11. | :21:14. | |
their new chief scout. And Steve Bruce is making more changes to the | :21:14. | :21:17. | |
playing staff. New signings, and those very close to joining the | :21:17. | :21:21. | |
Black Cats, could take his summer purchases to 11. Enough to form a | :21:21. | :21:24. | |
new team. Keith Akehurst reports. The latest player to commit to | :21:24. | :21:26. | |
Steve Bruce's revolution is Manchester United defender Wes | :21:26. | :21:30. | |
Brown. He signed today after he passed a medical last night. His | :21:30. | :21:32. | |
Old Trafford team-mate and Republic of Ireland international John | :21:32. | :21:38. | |
O'Shea had his today. He signed half an hour ago. The club is still | :21:38. | :21:41. | |
working on bringing in United midfielder Darron Gibson. The three | :21:41. | :21:44. | |
players were the subject of a combined �12 million bid last month | :21:44. | :21:48. | |
accepted by Sir Alex Ferguson. It's the latest in a long line of links | :21:48. | :21:54. | |
between the clubs. Of course, Bruce used to play for the Red Devils and | :21:54. | :21:56. | |
in recent seasons they've loaned Danny Welbeck, Fraizer Campbell and | :21:57. | :22:00. | |
Jonny Evans. Enough to make some people call them Man U on Wear | :22:00. | :22:03. | |
perhaps? In addition, it's thought Sunderland maybe close to | :22:03. | :22:05. | |
completing a move for Blackpool midfielder David Vaughan. That | :22:05. | :22:08. | |
would bring incomings to 11, if we include Ahmed Elmohamady, whose | :22:08. | :22:14. | |
loan last season has become a permanent move. Nottingham Forest | :22:14. | :22:22. | |
have made an approach to Newcastle for Wayne Routledge. The winger was | :22:22. | :22:25. | |
with the rest of the Newcastle squad as they returned to pre- | :22:25. | :22:29. | |
season training this morning, but new Forest boss Steve McClaren is | :22:29. | :22:32. | |
keen to add him to his team as they push for promotion next season. | :22:33. | :22:36. | |
Speculation over the future of a number of players, including Jose | :22:36. | :22:44. | |
Enrique and Joey Barton, continues. They both took part in this | :22:44. | :22:47. | |
morning's session though along with Alan Pardew's quartet of new French | :22:47. | :22:50. | |
signings. The north east weather giving them a taste of what they'll | :22:50. | :22:54. | |
have to get used to. Over in the North West, Carlisle have confirmed | :22:54. | :22:57. | |
that Wembley winner Peter Murphy has taken the option of another | :22:57. | :23:00. | |
year on his contract. Next season will be the defender's testimonial | :23:00. | :23:03. | |
year. There's a treat in store for the region's cricket fans this | :23:03. | :23:07. | |
weekend as Durham and Yorkshire play eachother in back to back | :23:07. | :23:13. | |
Twenty20 games - Chester le Street tomorrow and Scarborough on Sunday. | :23:13. | :23:16. | |
Championship leaders Durham are hoping they can make their mark in | :23:16. | :23:19. | |
a competition they've traditionally done badly in, and get through to | :23:19. | :23:21. | |
the quarter-finals. But for struggling Yorkshire, their | :23:21. | :23:25. | |
priorities lie elsewhere. Durham have beaten Yorkshire twice in the | :23:25. | :23:28. | |
County Championship this season and have home advantage in the first | :23:28. | :23:31. | |
Twenty20 match tomorrow. After years of under achievement in the | :23:31. | :23:34. | |
competition, this year could see a breakthrough and their lack of an | :23:35. | :23:37. | |
overseas specialist may have had a positive effect. This team has | :23:37. | :23:40. | |
stuck together. We have had more or less the same squad. We have not | :23:40. | :23:43. | |
called on any big names. The players have responded to that. We | :23:43. | :23:49. | |
have got a nice pattern going. It is important that we put together | :23:49. | :23:59. | |
:23:59. | :24:01. | ||
two of the victories, and we do Yorkshire's chances of making it | :24:01. | :24:04. | |
through to the quarter finals are slim but yesterdays announcement | :24:04. | :24:07. | |
that Jacques Rudolph their leading runscorer for the past four years | :24:07. | :24:11. | |
is returning to the club will give everyone a boost. It wont come in | :24:11. | :24:14. | |
time for this weekend but their priority is the championship where | :24:14. | :24:17. | |
Martyn Moxon's young side are in a real relegation scrap. Jack would | :24:17. | :24:20. | |
all will be joining us in time for the Lancashire County Championship | :24:20. | :24:23. | |
game on 20th July and then for the rest of the season so that is good | :24:23. | :24:26. | |
news from our point of view. He is a class player, as we know, and we | :24:26. | :24:30. | |
hope that will give us a boost for the rest of the season as we | :24:30. | :24:37. | |
attempt to stay in the past edition of the county championships. -- in | :24:37. | :24:43. | |
the First Division of the County Championship. Paul Collingwood is | :24:43. | :24:46. | |
expected to be fit for Durham. He The all rounder has managed to put | :24:47. | :24:50. | |
his shock at losing the England t20 captaincy behind him to put in some | :24:50. | :24:53. | |
top performances for his county including a century against | :24:53. | :24:55. | |
Yorkshire last month. Paul Collingwood to kick on the chin, he | :24:55. | :24:58. | |
was disappointed that the time, but he has come back really strongly. | :24:58. | :25:03. | |
He is a good, positive influence in the dressing room. Now we just have | :25:03. | :25:06. | |
to keep our fingers crossed for the weather. I am not sure that | :25:06. | :25:10. | |
crossing fingers is going to do any good! Time now for the weather | :25:10. | :25:20. | |
:25:20. | :25:22. | ||
First, thank you to David Lindsay, who snapped this rainbow and those | :25:22. | :25:28. | |
shower clouds in Sunderland. For tomorrow, more showers and the risk | :25:28. | :25:35. | |
of more thunder. That showery activity concentrating itself along | :25:35. | :25:39. | |
the North East Coast with 12 like thing strikes between South Shields | :25:39. | :25:44. | |
and Sunderland and a real barrier the triangle around North Yorkshire, | :25:44. | :25:53. | |
between dusk, Northallerton and Ripon. --Thirsk. It will become dry | :25:53. | :25:58. | |
for a time overnight. Dry and clear for most of the North Yorkshire | :25:58. | :26:04. | |
coast. And it does not last. Mild, to start the morning, with some | :26:04. | :26:07. | |
sunshine, but then that rain bridges up from the south, and once | :26:07. | :26:12. | |
again, it is heavy and intense enough to bring us a rumble of | :26:12. | :26:17. | |
thunder and more lightning flashes as well. There will be some drier | :26:17. | :26:22. | |
spells and a lot of thunder and lightning around. Temperatures into | :26:22. | :26:27. | |
the high teens, so feeling cool, compared with the July average. | :26:27. | :26:32. | |
Those temperatures are below the 60s in Fahrenheit. What is the | :26:32. | :26:37. | |
reason for this instability? It is this low-pressure sitting over the | :26:37. | :26:43. | |
UK. That starts to clear as we head through the weekend, then we have | :26:43. | :26:49. | |
some high-pressure, and by Monday, it is starting to calm things down. | :26:49. | :26:55. | |
For the next three you mights, showery on Saturday, with some of | :26:55. | :27:02. | |
them heavy, but by Sunday, less of arrest or thunder, and by Monday, | :27:02. | :27:06. | |
looking fine and dry in Cumbria, with a similar story in the North | :27:06. | :27:11. | |
East. Sunday sees those showers become lighter and temperatures | :27:11. | :27:17. | |
rise as well, then on Monday, fine and dry, with temperatures rising | :27:17. | :27:24. | |
to 21 Celsius. We like to see you were the pictures, so here is the | :27:24. | :27:31. |
