Hello and welcome to Wednesday's Look North. Tonight: One of the | :00:08. | :00:11. | |
North's top police officers faces a vote of no confidence. | :00:11. | :00:15. | |
Please slow down - the message to motorists from the mother of a | :00:15. | :00:20. | |
teenager killed in a road accident. You walk into the room and there is | :00:20. | :00:25. | |
all the machines and tubes, and you hold his hand and you hope that he | :00:25. | :00:28. | |
will show signs that he is OK, but he never did. | :00:28. | :00:31. | |
All our yesterdays - a nostalgic look back at the early days of | :00:31. | :00:35. | |
regional television. We once had a letter from a lady, following a | :00:35. | :00:39. | |
breakdown in the programme, and I was filling in. And she wrote and | :00:39. | :00:45. | |
said she was laughing so much that she burnt her husband's tea. | :00:45. | :00:48. | |
And sacked - the police dog that was too "softly softly" to catch | :00:48. | :00:51. | |
criminals in the act. In sport, tough new rules for | :00:52. | :00:54. | |
Newcastle away fans after those pitch invasions at the Darlington | :00:54. | :00:57. | |
Arena. And aiming high, but this Olympic | :00:57. | :01:07. | |

hopeful will have to be patient One of the north's top police | :01:16. | :01:20. | |
officers came under the politician's microscope today. | :01:20. | :01:22. | |
North Yorkshire's Chief Constable Graham Maxwell faced a vote of no | :01:22. | :01:26. | |
confidence from Lib Dem county councillors. But unlike his police | :01:26. | :01:30. | |
colleagues in London, he remains in post tonight. Mr Maxwell was | :01:30. | :01:32. | |
recently given a final written warning after a �300,000 | :01:32. | :01:37. | |
investigation. He'd admitted "gross misconduct" by helping a relative | :01:38. | :01:42. | |
in a police recruitment drive. Lib Dems said taxpayers had suffered | :01:42. | :01:44. | |
badly because Mr Maxwell should have admitted the allegations | :01:44. | :01:49. | |
earlier. But the ruling Conservatives backed the Chief | :01:49. | :01:56. | |
Constable and told him to get on with his job. John Cundy reports. | :01:56. | :02:00. | |
The man behind the vote of no confidence. Liberal Democrat leader | :02:00. | :02:04. | |
on the Council for Geoff weather. It is not a discrepancy and talking | :02:04. | :02:09. | |
about. It is the way that he, for six months, as he flitted around, | :02:09. | :02:15. | |
trying to avoid answering the charges and wasted public money. | :02:15. | :02:20. | |
Think of the public perception of Mr Maxwell, said his opponents. | :02:20. | :02:26. | |
is so disappointing bad people in these positions locally, it is | :02:26. | :02:32. | |
throughout the country. When I read about the fellow, it sounds like he | :02:32. | :02:36. | |
has his head screwed it the right way. You think he is all right to | :02:36. | :02:42. | |
carry on? Yes I do. He has still got his job secure and safe, even | :02:42. | :02:46. | |
though he has been in the wrong. is certainly unanimous across the | :02:46. | :02:50. | |
general public, who cannot understand why a man who has | :02:50. | :02:53. | |
effectively wasted hundreds of thousands of pounds of public funds | :02:53. | :02:58. | |
can still sit on a comfortably-off salary, closing police stations or | :02:58. | :03:02. | |
reducing hours and reducing the number of policemen on the beat. | :03:02. | :03:06. | |
But only eight people voted for the motion. Graham Maxwell will shrug | :03:07. | :03:11. | |
off today's failed attempt to bring a vote of no confidence against him, | :03:11. | :03:15. | |
despite being the first Chief Constable in 35 years to admit | :03:15. | :03:20. | |
gross misconduct. Mr Maxwell told Look North recently that he fully | :03:20. | :03:25. | |
intends to carry on. It is time to put this behind us. I have a force | :03:25. | :03:30. | |
that needs to be led and I am the right person. Graham has said that | :03:30. | :03:33. | |
he will rebuild his reputation and he wants to move on and the | :03:33. | :03:38. | |
authority will support him. apparent son North Yorkshire County | :03:38. | :03:42. | |
Council Saudi rebuff, -- his opponents on. Today was one of the | :03:42. | :03:47. | |
better days for Graham Maxwell been a difficult year. | :03:47. | :03:50. | |
A mother from Sunderland, whose teenage son was killed after being | :03:50. | :03:54. | |
hit by a car, is supporting a major summer road-safety campaign. 14- | :03:54. | :03:57. | |
year-old Daniel Evans died after he ran into the road and was knocked | :03:57. | :04:01. | |
over outside his school. Now his mum is calling on drivers to cut | :04:01. | :04:09. | |
their speed to 20mph in all built- up areas. Lyttanya Shannon reports. | :04:09. | :04:11. | |
It's been three and half years since Karen's 14-year-old son | :04:11. | :04:16. | |
Daniel was knocked down. But the memories of seeing him in hospital | :04:16. | :04:23. | |
for the first time are still as vivid. It was horrible, I wouldn't | :04:23. | :04:26. | |
want anybody else to go through it. You walk into the room and there is | :04:27. | :04:32. | |
all the machines and tubes, and you hold his hand and you hope that he | :04:32. | :04:35. | |
will just grip it and start coming round, and shows signs that he is | :04:35. | :04:39. | |
OK, but he never did. Karen is now supporting the road- | :04:39. | :04:41. | |
safety charity Break in their campaign to ask drivers to slow | :04:41. | :04:50. | |
down to 20mph in residential areas. It is the start of the summer | :04:50. | :04:55. | |
holidays, so they will be venturing out during the day more and more. | :04:55. | :04:59. | |
Just keep your speed slow. When you are driving through a built-up area. | :04:59. | :05:04. | |
You never know when a child is going to just pop in front of you. | :05:04. | :05:07. | |
According to the Department of Transport, in the north-east in | :05:07. | :05:09. | |
2009, 163 children were killed or seriously injured on the region's | :05:09. | :05:15. | |
roads. In Cumbria, 22 children were killed or seriously injured. | :05:16. | :05:23. | |
For bereaved parents like Karen, those figures are hard to stomach. | :05:23. | :05:28. | |
People are not getting the message and they still think they can drive | :05:28. | :05:32. | |
down at speed without consequence. There is a consequence. You are | :05:32. | :05:38. | |
going to take some body's live and devastate a family. Think of other | :05:38. | :05:44. | |
people, not just what you want to do and way you are getting too. | :05:44. | :05:54. | |
:05:54. | :05:57. | ||
Think of the consequences that Teachers at a Gateshead school have | :05:57. | :06:02. | |
been on strike in protest at plans to turn it into an academy. | :06:02. | :06:05. | |
Whickham School and Sports College closed, as more than 100 members of | :06:05. | :06:09. | |
the NAS/UWT walked out. The school's governing body wants it to | :06:09. | :06:13. | |
leave council control. The union says it could affect jobs, pay and | :06:13. | :06:16. | |
conditions. The headteacher Steve Haigh claims the strike is | :06:16. | :06:18. | |
politically motivated, and says the school will gain financially from | :06:18. | :06:26. | |
academy status. Police in County Durham say they're | :06:26. | :06:29. | |
dealing with thousands of hoax, silent or frivolous 999 calls each | :06:29. | :06:32. | |
year. Response times are going up, and it's preventing officers from | :06:32. | :06:35. | |
dealing with genuine emergencies. Officers are urging people not to | :06:35. | :06:40. | |
abuse the service. On one occasion, a teenager rang 999 over a minor | :06:40. | :06:50. | |
:06:50. | :07:10. | ||
A thief who was caught on camera as he tried to disable CCTV and cover | :07:11. | :07:14. | |
up his tracks has been let off with a caution from police. The 19-year- | :07:14. | :07:17. | |
old climbed up a pole to tamper with the security equipment at a | :07:17. | :07:21. | |
boatyard in Blyth, in Northumberland. After just hours of | :07:21. | :07:24. | |
his picture being released by the police in June, people began | :07:24. | :07:28. | |
ringing in with the teenager's name. He has has now been cautioned for | :07:28. | :07:31. | |
criminal damage. They've been the subject of much | :07:31. | :07:35. | |
protest and controversy. But now the Mayor of Hartlepool has | :07:35. | :07:38. | |
promised there'll be no more landfill sites created in the town | :07:38. | :07:42. | |
for the next 15 years at least. He says for too long the town's been | :07:42. | :07:46. | |
seen as "a soft touch" for landfill developers. There are currently | :07:46. | :07:50. | |
three sites in Seaton Carew alone. Stuart Whincup reports. | :07:50. | :08:00. | |
:08:00. | :08:01. | ||
Every morning, Anne Wise wakes up She's been here for seven years and | :08:01. | :08:08. | |
this what living next door to a landfill site is like. The smell, | :08:08. | :08:15. | |
the stench, the seagulls. The lorries. The noise. This is five | :08:15. | :08:18. | |
days a week. The area has been an easy target for landfill, according | :08:19. | :08:22. | |
to the town's mayor. He says they've listened to the protests | :08:22. | :08:28. | |
and there'll be no new ones built for the next 15 years at least. | :08:28. | :08:31. | |
message is out there now that people know that Hartlepool isn't a | :08:32. | :08:35. | |
soft touch. Some of the smells and the noises then there have been | :08:35. | :08:39. | |
disgusting. I have the utmost sympathy with the people who live | :08:39. | :08:43. | |
there. We have been trying to work with the site owners to try and | :08:43. | :08:48. | |
minimise any disruption. But all of this doesn't mean an end to | :08:48. | :08:51. | |
landfill. While the council is against all new applications, it is | :08:52. | :08:57. | |
in talks with Able UK, who owned this side, and are looking to | :08:57. | :09:02. | |
extended. Back at home, Anne says many of her neighbours have tried | :09:02. | :09:08. | |
to move but can't. People can't sell their houses because of that | :09:08. | :09:16. | |
over there. We are not even going to try for a couple of years. | :09:16. | :09:18. | |
Still to come on tonight's Look North - Wednesday's Sportsdesk. | :09:18. | :09:21. | |
Plus: the man who's giving his right arm to help protect wildlife | :09:22. | :09:30. | |
in Turkey. We have had more than a fair share of summer rain today, | :09:30. | :09:35. | |
things do look right for the Cup -- next couple of days, I will have | :09:35. | :09:41. | |
Every parent wants the best education for their children. And | :09:41. | :09:44. | |
getting them into the best school is a priority for many. But gone | :09:44. | :09:48. | |
are the days when your son or daughter was guaranteed a place at | :09:48. | :09:51. | |
the secondary school of their choice. These days, schools can | :09:51. | :09:54. | |
choose who they admit - leading to claims that it's a lottery. In | :09:54. | :09:57. | |
tonight's Look North report, Richard Thomas examines how the | :09:57. | :10:04. | |
system is working in the north-east and Cumbria. | :10:04. | :10:08. | |
What are the effects of exercise? The heart rate increases. | :10:08. | :10:12. | |
They are said to be the best years of your life. But choose the wrong | :10:12. | :10:15. | |
school and they could be anything but. In Stockton, for example, | :10:15. | :10:18. | |
there are a dozen secondary schools. With hundreds of places on offer, | :10:18. | :10:25. | |
some schools will be more popular than others. Penny and her brother | :10:25. | :10:28. | |
Tom have managed to get a place at oversubscribed Egglescliffe School | :10:28. | :10:32. | |
near Yarm. It's actually outside their primary school's catchment | :10:32. | :10:39. | |
area and has an excellent reputation. I love the fact that we | :10:39. | :10:43. | |
have got a choice, that you can go around the schools and see what is | :10:43. | :10:48. | |
best. You have that position, really. I think we are quite lucky | :10:48. | :10:53. | |
here, in that we had a good choice of schools. Almost all of the | :10:53. | :10:56. | |
schools that we could have chosen you would say are good schools. | :10:56. | :11:02. | |
There are some areas where you don't quite have back. Parents | :11:02. | :11:06. | |
really have the power, they can shop around. I know people look at | :11:07. | :11:10. | |
fiscal and compare it to different schools, not just in Stockton but | :11:10. | :11:13. | |
in Darlington and Middlesbrough -- at this school. And inevitably | :11:13. | :11:17. | |
where some schools are doing well, there'll be others that lose out. | :11:17. | :11:19. | |
In Stockton Borough, for example, some schools are heavily | :11:19. | :11:21. | |
undersubscribed, leading to accusations that the system is | :11:21. | :11:31. | |
:11:31. | :11:31. | ||
unfair. Certainly in Stockton, we try and work as a collaborative. In | :11:31. | :11:35. | |
an age of falling rolls, that is difficult. Every school in Stockton | :11:35. | :11:40. | |
is doing a good job. The fact that some are more oversubscribed is not | :11:40. | :11:45. | |
a reflection on how good they are. It does create competition. People | :11:45. | :11:49. | |
want the best pupils in their schools so they can be seen to be | :11:49. | :11:53. | |
raising standards. It should be equitable right across the patch, | :11:53. | :11:57. | |
of whatever kind of school it is. These days, selecting a school is a | :11:57. | :12:00. | |
time-consuming job. Prospectuses, form filling, the list goes on. And | :12:00. | :12:04. | |
at the end of it, there's no guarantee you'll get what you want. | :12:04. | :12:07. | |
But here's the good news. Because we live in a part of the world | :12:07. | :12:10. | |
where a lot of parents get the school they want their children to | :12:10. | :12:13. | |
go to. There are 15 local education authorities in the north-east and | :12:13. | :12:20. | |
Cumbria. In 14 of them, more than nine in 10 children are offered | :12:20. | :12:25. | |
their first choice school, an average of 95%. Only Middlesbrough | :12:25. | :12:30. | |
is the exception, at 82%. That is partly because one school, | :12:30. | :12:35. | |
MacMillan college, is oversubscribed by almost 140%. But | :12:35. | :12:38. | |
there are more than 1,000 children who won't get their first choice | :12:39. | :12:44. | |
school. Few people, though, believe there is a better way will stop I | :12:44. | :12:49. | |
think the system we have got is probably the best we can have at | :12:49. | :12:51. | |
the moment. There may be some consultation with the Government, | :12:52. | :12:55. | |
but I think what it does do is it allows children to hopefully get | :12:55. | :12:59. | |
their first preference and it is difficult to actually see whether | :12:59. | :13:03. | |
other systems could do better. These days, schools are not just a | :13:03. | :13:07. | |
place for learning. They are businesses competing in a market | :13:07. | :13:12. | |
environment. Pupils equal money, and the more seats you fill the | :13:12. | :13:17. | |
more cash you get. The first lesson in economics for more than 40,000 | :13:17. | :13:20. | |
children starting secondary school for the first time in the north- | :13:20. | :13:30. | |
:13:30. | :13:30. | ||
How often have you heard someone say they would give their right arm | :13:30. | :13:34. | |
for something they really want? One man has come up with a novel way of | :13:34. | :13:40. | |
doing just that. Tristan Reid is having his entire right and -- | :13:40. | :13:45. | |
right arm and shoulder tattooed with per to compete wiped out if a | :13:45. | :13:51. | |

something about its threatened speeches. All the water ways have | :14:06. | :14:14. | |
been sold off to private companies, and there is a plan to create over | :14:14. | :14:21. | |
1,700 Hydro-Electric power plants. There are a dozen dance being built. | :14:21. | :14:28. | |
This means that a lot of the really important habitats in Turkey would | :14:28. | :14:32. | |
be completely drained. solution? To give literally his | :14:32. | :14:38. | |
right arm, tattooed from the shoulder down with the birds in | :14:38. | :14:42. | |
peril. We took him to a tattoo parlour to talk about what might be | :14:42. | :14:47. | |
involved. I do not like needles at all. But it is something I have | :14:48. | :14:53. | |
thought about having done four years, but I have not really got | :14:53. | :14:59. | |
the build, the big muscles that people have. If I was going to get | :15:00. | :15:04. | |
something, I would want it to mean something. He has asked people to | :15:04. | :15:11. | |
vote for the birds and donate money. He hopes to raise �10,000. To every | :15:12. | :15:16. | |
person is different, and every piece of skin is different. Some | :15:16. | :15:21. | |
bits will be comfortable, and some bits he will have to sit there for | :15:21. | :15:31. | |
A brave man! 50 years ago, regional television programmes like Look | :15:31. | :15:35. | |
North were very new and experimental. Times have moved on, | :15:35. | :15:39. | |
and new technology means that we can bring you the latest news live | :15:39. | :15:43. | |
from anywhere in the north-east and Cumbria. Tonight, BBC for is | :15:43. | :15:51. | |

:16:33. | :16:34. | ||
got the film yet? It has been one of those funny days! We once had a | :16:34. | :16:39. | |
lady on following a breakdown, and I was laughing so much that I'd | :16:39. | :16:47. | |
burnt my husbands to the! I was livid that he missed the break | :16:47. | :16:55. | |

Over in Carlisle, Border Television did not have much of a record in a | :17:01. | :17:08. | |
higher age documentary making. It had more sheep than Dewar's! The | :17:08. | :17:15. | |
rising stock was Derek BT, a local ventriloquist who trained as an | :17:15. | :17:25. | |
:17:25. | :17:31. | ||
accountant. He was a perfect host for an unusual show. He would say, | :17:31. | :17:41. | |
:17:41. | :17:42. | ||
"I saw that programme, what a load of rubbish!" 8 committee of us | :17:42. | :17:50. | |

A local police dog has been fired because he would not bite. Vegas | :18:26. | :18:32. | |
the German shepherd had her employment terminated when she | :18:33. | :18:40. | |
would not tackle criminals. A nervous disposition is not the best | :18:40. | :18:45. | |
qualification for a police dog. It seems Vegas is good at police dog | :18:45. | :18:49. | |
theory, running and jumping, but not so good at a police dog | :18:49. | :18:53. | |
practice, sinking her teeth into criminals. Riper than take the | :18:53. | :18:58. | |

putting the number on our screen He looked far too nice to be a | :19:56. | :20:04. | |
police dog! Time for the sport. Big news at son James's Park. Newcastle | :20:04. | :20:08. | |
fans are very unhappy. Newcastle United have banned non-members and | :20:08. | :20:13. | |
those without season tickets from attending away games after violence | :20:13. | :20:17. | |
erupted at the pre-season friendly game at Darlington at the weekend. | :20:17. | :20:24. | |
Many fans say the club has over- reacted. This was the incident but | :20:24. | :20:28. | |
caused the action. Hundreds of fans flooded onto the pitch after | :20:28. | :20:33. | |
Newcastle United's second goal last Friday. It took 10 minutes to clear | :20:33. | :20:37. | |
up the fans from the pitch. At the club has taken the strongest | :20:37. | :20:42. | |
possible action, and by banning fans who are not members from away | :20:42. | :20:45. | |
games, they have been true to their word. No one was available for | :20:45. | :20:49. | |
comment yesterday, but the news has not gone down well outside St | :20:49. | :20:55. | |
James's Park. Because of a handful of people, you are punishing | :20:55. | :21:01. | |
everyone, and that is not right. They have to try and control it | :21:01. | :21:07. | |
somehow, but people pay good money up front. It is sensible to keep | :21:07. | :21:15. | |
them coming. I feel that some stuff that goes on here isn't worth | :21:15. | :21:24. | |
repeating. I go to away games. Identikit will be much of a problem. | :21:24. | :21:28. | |
Many people feel that it has driven a wedge between fans and the men's | :21:28. | :21:33. | |
-- men at the top. There is a lack of communication with the | :21:33. | :21:36. | |
supporters, and they need to deal with it, because otherwise that is | :21:36. | :21:41. | |
going to happen again and again. It is a class difference. It is saying, | :21:41. | :21:46. | |
if you are not in possession of the season ticket, you cannot go to | :21:46. | :21:50. | |
away games. Nothing surprises me with Newcastle United. The club | :21:50. | :21:56. | |
says that fans who have already bought a ticket against -- a ticket | :21:56. | :22:03. | |
for the game against Leeds who do not have a season ticket can attend. | :22:03. | :22:08. | |
Last night, Durham beat Hampshire in the Clydesdale Bank 40 match. | :22:08. | :22:13. | |
Begin Bridge their hopes of getting to the semi-final. Paul Collingwood | :22:13. | :22:19. | |
once again showed all his experience. He hit 73 off just 63 | :22:19. | :22:27. | |
balls. He shared a century partnership. The game was rain | :22:27. | :22:37. | |
affected and reduced to 35 overs. Hampshire never had any chance of | :22:37. | :22:45. | |
reaching their target. It can be a spectacular sport to watch. How | :22:45. | :22:50. | |
many of you knew that trampolining was in the Olympics? It is its 4th | :22:50. | :22:57. | |
games. It is a long process, but we have met an athlete with high hopes | :22:57. | :23:07. | |

What would it mean to compete in London 2012? Everything. To compete | :23:10. | :23:18. | |
in front of her home crowd, it can't beat that. Meet Kat Driscoll, | :23:18. | :23:25. | |
who left Kent when she was 18. loved training with pill, and so | :23:25. | :23:34. | |
when I was 18, I moved up here full-time. She is a very confident | :23:34. | :23:38. | |
young lady. It is a mental toughness she has, which is | :23:38. | :23:45. | |
allowing her to be one of the best competitors in the world. Now 25, | :23:45. | :23:47. | |
Catt is based at the Apollo Trampoline Club at Washington | :23:47. | :23:50. | |
Leisure Centre. She has just returned from events in China and | :23:50. | :23:59. | |
Japan with three silver medals, justifying her day job being given | :23:59. | :24:04. | |
up. When others working full-time at HSBC, I was not doing any | :24:04. | :24:10. | |
conditioning work, and when I gave up working full-time, I am doing | :24:10. | :24:17. | |
over 20 hours for time. I am going to to dated stadium a lot, and it | :24:17. | :24:21. | |
is helping. Catt has shown that she has got all the skills to do well | :24:21. | :24:26. | |
in London 2012. Now she needs a lot of patience. The decision will not | :24:26. | :24:36. | |
:24:36. | :24:42. | ||
be made for the Great Britain team I was not expecting that! Time for | :24:42. | :24:51. | |
the weather now. If there was not enough, the great British weather | :24:51. | :25:01. | |

We concentrate on clouds tonight. There has been no shortage of | :25:03. | :25:11. | |
concentration of clouds over Cumbria. You can see this funnel | :25:11. | :25:18. | |
cloud. You can see the bottom of the final here, and that is a | :25:18. | :25:24. | |
tornado not quite touching the ground. This is a picture of the | :25:24. | :25:28. | |
sunshine and showers. Thank you to Stephen for that shot. We have a | :25:28. | :25:33. | |
Met Office warning out for more rain. Things will improve as we | :25:33. | :25:36. | |
head through the night. A quieter spell of weather for the next | :25:36. | :25:41. | |
couple of days. Still some heavy bursts of rain as we head into the | :25:41. | :25:49. | |
later part of the evening. Overnight, still one or two showers | :25:49. | :25:59. | |
:25:59. | :25:59. | ||
around, but it will move away. Ten Celsius the typical temperature. We | :25:59. | :26:04. | |
start off tomorrow with a fairly cloudy picture. One or two showers | :26:04. | :26:09. | |
here old bear. Do the cloud will break up. The showers will be | :26:09. | :26:15. | |
fairly well scattered. There's always a risk of one or two showers. | :26:15. | :26:20. | |
Elsewhere, most reach dry with some brightness. Even some sunshine. It | :26:20. | :26:29. | |
is not going to feel that warm. More like 13 or 14 Celsius way you | :26:29. | :26:33. | |
are more exposed to the north- easterly, somewhere like Berwick, | :26:33. | :26:38. | |
for instance. The low-pressure news a way, and we have a week high- | :26:38. | :26:42. | |
pressure building as we go through Friday ended to the began. It | :26:42. | :26:49. | |
should be drier than it has been. The winds will come from a | :26:49. | :26:57. | |
northerly direction, so tempters will not break any records. Showers | :26:57. | :27:06. | |
left -- less widespread as we move to Friday. Cold wet exposed. | :27:06. | :27:11. | |
