:00:03. > :00:06.Welcome to Thursday's Look North. In tonight's headlines. A lucky

:00:06. > :00:15.escape for pupils when THIS happened on the bus journey to

:00:15. > :00:19.school. Eyes saw it and I thought my house are blown up. It was a

:00:19. > :00:23.shock. When I saw that are so it was a bigger shock.

:00:23. > :00:27.Teachers walk out over a row to turn one of the country's largest

:00:27. > :00:30.schools into an academy. Beating the blues. A new drugs

:00:30. > :00:35.trial could help people in the North struggling with depression.

:00:35. > :00:39.And rare footage from the glory days of the Tyne-built cruise ships.

:00:39. > :00:42.In sport, we take one of our best- known ex-footballers back to one of

:00:42. > :00:52.his famous old grounds. So why does David Hodgson look like he's just

:00:52. > :01:00.

:01:00. > :01:04.A bus-load of teenagers on their way to school had a remarkable

:01:04. > :01:08.escape when their double decker bus hit a low bridge - shearing the

:01:08. > :01:11.roof clean off. 11 pupils and the driver were taken to hospital after

:01:11. > :01:16.this morning's crash in Darlington. Fortunately none were seriously

:01:16. > :01:20.injured. Emergency services say it could have been so much worse. Mary

:01:20. > :01:30.Askew joins us live from outside the pupils' school, the Queen

:01:30. > :01:30.

:01:30. > :01:35.Elizabeth Sixth Form College. Having seen the wreckage of the

:01:35. > :01:39.past this morning and the metal and glass strewn across the road it is

:01:39. > :01:42.easy to understand why members of the emergency services and the

:01:42. > :01:46.staff at the college are talking about the people's having a

:01:46. > :01:53.miraculous escape. That does seem to best sum up what happened here

:01:53. > :02:00.today. Everyone of the 50 children on board this bus was able to walk

:02:00. > :02:04.off. 12 were taken to hospital with minor injuries. The most serious, a

:02:04. > :02:10.suspected fractured collarbone. Looking at the wreckage it is

:02:10. > :02:14.difficult to understand how so many children escaped without injury.

:02:14. > :02:20.That area on the bridge is solid steel and it sliced through the

:02:20. > :02:26.carbon fibre of the top deck of the bus. 11 were taken to hospital with

:02:26. > :02:31.minor injuries. The most serious casualty was a 17 year old who

:02:31. > :02:37.fractured her collarbone and cut her head. She spoke to the BBC.

:02:37. > :02:42.did not realise at all that it was a double Decker bus and sped for it

:02:42. > :02:46.and a few people were saying we are not going to fit under but Jo King,

:02:46. > :02:52.expecting him to stop. He did not stop and the next thing I knew the

:02:52. > :02:55.route was coming into the bus. these to be a proper investigation

:02:55. > :03:01.from the proper authorities but I am surprised the bus was on the

:03:01. > :03:04.road it was on. It is not the normal route. Clearly a buzz of

:03:04. > :03:08.that height should not have been attempting to pass under that

:03:08. > :03:13.bridge. This could have been a tragic accident here today. I'm

:03:13. > :03:16.really pleased that only 11 children have gone to hospital with

:03:16. > :03:19.minor injuries. The rest of the children have gone off to school

:03:19. > :03:24.and we will be liaising with the school to make sure that they are

:03:24. > :03:27.supported. Every single individual there was on the bars has literally

:03:27. > :03:32.walked away from the scene, although some have been taken to

:03:32. > :03:36.hospital. They are incredibly relieved because if you have a look

:03:36. > :03:41.at the scene it is quite remarkable that so many students had been

:03:41. > :03:47.involved and yet had not sustained serious injury. Neighbours were on

:03:47. > :03:51.the scene moments after the crash. I was walking back from school and

:03:51. > :03:55.I saw the man for my house had blown up. It was a shock but when I

:03:55. > :03:59.saw the bus it was a bigger shock. Within 90 minutes of the accident

:03:59. > :04:04.happening, the road was cleared and some of the children were even back

:04:04. > :04:10.at their desks. The police were left pondering just what could have

:04:10. > :04:14.been. The children and the bus driver

:04:14. > :04:17.have now been released from hospital. In interviews with the

:04:17. > :04:23.police, the children have said that those people sitting at the top

:04:23. > :04:27.front of the past salt the bridge coming and actually shouted duck.

:04:27. > :04:33.Fortunately everybody on the top deck did just that and that is why

:04:33. > :04:36.nobody was more seriously injured. As to why the crash happened in the

:04:36. > :04:43.first place, the bus company are carrying out their own

:04:43. > :04:45.investigation which will run alongside that of the police. The

:04:45. > :04:48.families evacuated from their homes in Newcastle's West End after

:04:48. > :04:51.yesterday's suspected gas explosion have been told they can't go back

:04:52. > :04:55.to the properties. Newcastle City Council has cordoned off six

:04:55. > :04:58.Tyneside flats in Sceptre Road in Elswick after a blast ripped the

:04:58. > :05:02.roof off one of the properties. All the families have been given

:05:02. > :05:06.alternative accommodation. A 38- year-old man was taken to hospital.

:05:06. > :05:09.His condition is critical but stable.

:05:09. > :05:12.One of the country's largest and most successful schools has been

:05:13. > :05:17.heavily disrupted by strike action today. Some teachers at Newcastle's

:05:17. > :05:21.Kenton School walked out over plans to turn it into an academy. They

:05:21. > :05:26.fear that could lead to lower pay and longer hours. But the school

:05:26. > :05:30.says that's nonsense. Richard Moss reports.

:05:30. > :05:33.Out of the classroom, and on the picket line. Teachers are striking

:05:33. > :05:43.because Kenton School plans to leave council control to become an

:05:43. > :05:44.

:05:44. > :05:48.academy. Unions say their members' working conditions would suffer.

:05:48. > :05:53.Kenton School is an outstanding school. We believe it is not broken,

:05:53. > :05:56.why fix it? The staff are committed to taking the school further and

:05:56. > :06:00.higher but what they do not want is the governors to reward them with a

:06:00. > :06:04.threat to the longer term stability and security of their terms and

:06:04. > :06:07.conditions. And there is some support from the community. Local

:06:07. > :06:13.councillor Margaret Carter has resigned from the board of

:06:13. > :06:17.governors after 20 years. It has been very painful to make his

:06:17. > :06:21.decision to leave the school and I do hope they will have a rethink.

:06:21. > :06:29.But the head insists academy status would help the school. And he says

:06:29. > :06:32.strikers are being misled by their unions. We gave them absolute

:06:32. > :06:37.insurance well before there was any question of industrial action to

:06:37. > :06:40.our staff that we would not under any circumstances that pay and

:06:40. > :06:46.conditions deteriorate or fall below national standards for any

:06:46. > :06:50.member of staff, and that is an absolute guarantee. And around half

:06:50. > :06:55.of staff did come in, allowing the school to stay open for Year 11s

:06:55. > :07:00.and sixth formers. But more disruption lies ahead. Two more

:07:00. > :07:04.days of action are planned next week and with these people

:07:04. > :07:08.implacably opposed to the idea of academies, other schools may face

:07:08. > :07:11.action in the future. The body of a North East soldier

:07:11. > :07:14.who was killed in Afghanistan was flown home this afternoon. Lance

:07:14. > :07:18.Corporal Jonathan McKinlay, from Darlington, was serving with the

:07:18. > :07:21.1st Battalion, The Rifles. He was 33. He died in a firefight in

:07:21. > :07:24.Helmand Province and his body was flown into RAF Brize Norton in

:07:24. > :07:29.Oxfordshire before the cortege passed through the nearby town of

:07:29. > :07:33.Carterton. The North East has the worst

:07:33. > :07:35.recovery rate from depression in the country. But a new drug trial

:07:35. > :07:39.at Newcastle University could dramatically improve people's

:07:39. > :07:42.mental health. The drug being tested on 200 volunteers blocks the

:07:42. > :07:51.stress hormone cortisol and allows anti-depressants to work much more

:07:51. > :07:54.effectively. Katrina Allcroft has struggled with

:07:54. > :08:02.depression since she was 10. She's now 21, cannot work, and welcomes

:08:02. > :08:08.the drug trial which could end her misery. Over the years it has

:08:08. > :08:13.gradually got worse. I want to try and stop it now. I have just turned

:08:13. > :08:18.21 someone to have a new change in life, I want to do something better

:08:18. > :08:22.with myself. That is why when my doctor suggested this test I agree

:08:22. > :08:26.to it. I read all the material on it and it does sound something

:08:26. > :08:31.viable to myself. Depression is an illness which affects one in 12 of

:08:31. > :08:36.us and it can strike without warning. There have been some

:08:36. > :08:39.prominent sufferers, such as Winston Churchill. The television

:08:39. > :08:45.presenter Stephen Fry and Bill waddy have both written about their

:08:45. > :08:50.personal struggles with depression. We do know that anti-depressant

:08:50. > :08:54.prescribing has increased in the north-east. It is a high as part of

:08:54. > :09:01.the UK for prescribing and it is also an area where recovery seems

:09:01. > :09:06.to be less good. So it is an important question for us because

:09:06. > :09:09.depression is such a big public health issue. So, making anti-

:09:09. > :09:15.depressants more effective will benefit our region more than

:09:15. > :09:19.anywhere else. Campaigners have vowed to fight any

:09:19. > :09:21.decision to sell off Rose Castle, the 13th century former home of the

:09:21. > :09:27.Bishop of Carlisle. Church Commissioners have been meeting in

:09:27. > :09:29.London today to decide the stately home's future. But they say they

:09:29. > :09:33.won't reveal their recommendations until the Board of Governors meets

:09:33. > :09:38.next week. People fighting to save the castle say they'll oppose any

:09:38. > :09:42.private sale. The family of a Darlington boy who

:09:42. > :09:46.suffered a brain haemorrhage after an incident in a play park are

:09:46. > :09:48.calling for a change in the law to force schools to take bullying more

:09:48. > :09:51.seriously. "Kieran's Rule", named after 12-year-old Kieran Snee,

:09:52. > :09:56.would require teachers to log and record such incidents on a child's

:09:56. > :10:01.report card. At the moment, Kieran's family say bullies just

:10:01. > :10:05.think they can get away with it. Peter Lugg's been to meet them.

:10:05. > :10:08.Just an ordinary lad kicking a ball around, but that in itself is an

:10:08. > :10:14.achievement for 12-year-old Kieran Snee, who five months ago was

:10:14. > :10:17.fighting for his life in a Teesside Hospital. Kieran had been injured

:10:17. > :10:23.in a bullying incident at his local park, his head banged against the

:10:23. > :10:28.metal frame of a ride called a witches cauldron. A 14-year-old

:10:28. > :10:32.girl subsequently admitted causing grievous bodily harm. When Look

:10:32. > :10:42.North first met him he'd just spent nine days in a coma caused by a

:10:42. > :10:43.

:10:43. > :10:49.massive blood clot on the brain. How are you doing these days?

:10:49. > :10:55.doing fine. The last time we saw DU had big stitches all over you.

:10:55. > :11:01.have gone now. I had big tube in my nose as well to help me feet.

:11:01. > :11:05.has the recovery Kong since then? It has gone quite fine. I'm quite

:11:05. > :11:10.disappointed about things I'm not allowed to do, like playing

:11:10. > :11:14.football, heading the ball, and I'm not allowed to do contact sport.

:11:14. > :11:17.so concerned are the family about the distress Kieran has been

:11:17. > :11:23.through that they do not want any other family to go through the same

:11:23. > :11:28.thing. They launched a campaign to get the government to do something

:11:29. > :11:33.about bullying nationally. If the parent goes into a school and says

:11:33. > :11:37.their child has been bullied, it should be recorded. This is what we

:11:37. > :11:41.are hoping to get, because I think if a child knows that if they

:11:41. > :11:45.believe it is going to go on their record they will think twice about

:11:45. > :11:49.doing it. Nearly 2,500 people have now signed up to the Kieran's Rule

:11:49. > :11:52.petition, which the family are planning to take to Downing Street.

:11:52. > :11:57.Well - there's plenty more to come in tonight's programme. Including

:11:57. > :12:05.the Japanese woman who claims she's Wor Jackie's number one fan. Handle

:12:05. > :12:09.with care - an unusual way of nursing a sick hedgehog.

:12:09. > :12:14.In the forecast, as the weekend approaches it looks like it is

:12:14. > :12:19.going to warm up. A man's preparing to spend a third

:12:19. > :12:23.night up a tree, to try to stop it being felled. Mark Snow says he has

:12:23. > :12:26.no plans to climb down the hundred- year-old beech tree at Irton near

:12:26. > :12:36.Scarborough. Villagers have been turning out to show their backing

:12:36. > :12:51.

:12:51. > :12:55.for Mr Snow and say they'll continue to support him.

:12:55. > :12:58.A hedgehog whose spikes were covered in hot tar - it's thought

:12:58. > :13:01.deliberately - has been rescued in North Tyneside. Hedgehogs are now

:13:01. > :13:04.an endangered species and could disappear in just 10 years. This

:13:04. > :13:08.autumn, a woman who has turned her home into a hedgehog sanctuary is

:13:08. > :13:11.urging people in our region to watch out for them as they tidy up

:13:11. > :13:14.their gardens. Hannah Bayman reports, but we should say you

:13:14. > :13:17.might find some of the images in her report upsetting.

:13:17. > :13:23.Tinker the hedgehog has a hydrotherapy session at Moira

:13:23. > :13:27.Simpson's Pricklepad Hedgehog Hospital. This gets the muscles

:13:28. > :13:30.going and builds up her strength. Finally getting her strength back,

:13:30. > :13:34.just five months ago Tinker was found horribly injured. The

:13:34. > :13:37.juvenile hedgehog was caught on these CCTV pictures by a friend of

:13:37. > :13:43.Moira's staggering under the weight of a coating of tar, which it's

:13:43. > :13:48.believed could only have been poured on her deliberately. You can

:13:48. > :13:52.see the horrific infection that she had underneath. He started to curl

:13:52. > :13:55.under the edges and it was like love that. Now her spines have

:13:55. > :14:05.almost grown back, Tinker is having regular massages to restore her

:14:05. > :14:11.

:14:11. > :14:16.damaged muscles. A whole idea is to get this muscle working again so

:14:16. > :14:26.that she can bend properly and curl up to protect a winches back in the

:14:26. > :14:27.

:14:27. > :14:31.wild. We need every head chock that we can get back into the wild. --

:14:31. > :14:37.hedgehog. The skeletons go back been into of years and yet here we

:14:37. > :14:40.are with the threat that they will be extinct within 10 years. Check

:14:40. > :14:47.the area you're going to stream in the garden before you do it. They

:14:47. > :14:51.are the friend of the garden. the spring, Tinker should be strong

:14:51. > :14:54.enough to go back into the wild - one tale of survival against the

:14:54. > :15:04.decline of our native hedgehog. To follow her progress you can Google

:15:04. > :15:07.Pricklepad Hedgehog Hospital. It was an era of glamour and luxury.

:15:07. > :15:11.But only the wealthiest and most privileged could afford to cruise

:15:11. > :15:14.at the turn of the last century. Many of the great passenger liners

:15:14. > :15:18.were built here in Tyneside shipyards. Which is why this

:15:18. > :15:22.Saturday visitors can take a step back in time and experience life on

:15:22. > :15:28.board a cruise ship. Never before seen home videos from the 1930s and

:15:28. > :15:31.1950s are being shown at an event at Segedunum. "Ocean Dreams" has

:15:31. > :15:40.been organised as part of the BBC Reel History of Britain events

:15:40. > :15:44.programme. Joanne Carter reports. It's Tuesday June 27th. 1961.

:15:44. > :15:48.Launch day for The Northern Star. Hundreds are here to share her

:15:48. > :15:52.special day. For the shipyard - a celebration. For the thousands of

:15:52. > :16:02.men who built her - pride. A reminder that Newcastle

:16:02. > :16:04.

:16:04. > :16:10.shipbuilding still rules the waves. I mean it this ship The Northern

:16:10. > :16:14.Star. May God bless her and all who sail in her. This archive is just

:16:14. > :16:21.one of the films being shown this Saturday at a special event called

:16:21. > :16:27.Ocean Dreams at Segedunum. I am not from this area but I know I am

:16:27. > :16:32.surrounded by many people who have fathers, grandfathers, uncles and

:16:32. > :16:36.brothers, sisters as well, who work in the shipyards, and can remember

:16:36. > :16:41.really well to launches, the fitting out and the pride of seeing

:16:42. > :16:44.a new ship sailed down the Tyne. The real focus of the event is

:16:44. > :16:48.about recreating the glory days of the passenger liners. What would

:16:48. > :16:58.someone pack in their trunk and what was it like to be on board

:16:58. > :17:02.

:17:02. > :17:07.during that glorious era before airline travel became king? Films

:17:07. > :17:14.like this are very rarely seen. Mainly because they are amateur

:17:14. > :17:22.film, people of quarter every middle-class and upper-class people.

:17:22. > :17:25.It is reminiscent of an industry that Tyneside was world famous for.

:17:25. > :17:31.It is an opportunity to see colour pictures of a particular moment in

:17:31. > :17:34.time. If you'd like to find out more about Ocean Dreams or other

:17:34. > :17:40.showings of archive film in your area, then please go to

:17:40. > :17:42.bbc.co.uk/handsonhistory. Not many people in this part of the

:17:42. > :17:47.world need telling about the legendary footballer Jackie Milburn,

:17:47. > :17:51.and his exploits for Newcastle in the '40s and '50s. But it seems one

:17:51. > :17:55.of his biggest fans is from the other side of the world. She's 27,

:17:55. > :17:58.and from Japan. Today, she came to Jackie's home turf in

:17:58. > :18:03.Northumberland, to pay homage and to meet the great man's wife and

:18:03. > :18:08.son. Gerry Jackson reports. Alnmouth Railway station - an

:18:08. > :18:18.unlikely setting for a football fan's pilgrimage. But this is no

:18:18. > :18:20.

:18:20. > :18:25.ordinary pilgrimage - and no ordinary fan. The lady just to ride

:18:25. > :18:29.on platform two has flown 10,000 miles to meet the Milburn family.

:18:29. > :18:33.Yuki Furuichi has come all this way to see Laura, wife of the great

:18:33. > :18:37.Jackie Milburn, his son Jack junior, and his wife, Julie. Yuki's a

:18:37. > :18:42.devotee of all things football, but not today's. She's only interested

:18:42. > :18:48.in the greats of an age long gone. We're in Longhirst, a few miles

:18:48. > :18:51.from Jackie Milburn's Ashington birthplace. The family wants their

:18:52. > :18:57.special guest to see this statue of the great man that used to stand

:18:57. > :19:06.outside St James's Park.. Now in the garden of the sculptor who

:19:06. > :19:13.created it. I think he is one of the greatest footballers in the

:19:13. > :19:17.history of British football. Because I believe that the old

:19:17. > :19:24.footballers were the real truth footballers. I really think that I

:19:24. > :19:29.wanted to see him. But it is not just about memories of Jackie, who

:19:29. > :19:33.died when she was only four. She wants to feel a connection to the

:19:33. > :19:41.people who were closest to him. feel something mysterious because I

:19:41. > :19:44.cannot believe she is the wife of that gentleman. Yes, he would have

:19:44. > :19:49.made a fuss of her. He would have thought it was a lovely story,

:19:49. > :19:57.which it is, when you think a young girl like that taking an interest.

:19:57. > :20:01.He has been gone 24 years now and this interest still. I am stunned.

:20:01. > :20:05.The knowledge she has got his fantastic. Considering she only

:20:05. > :20:10.started taking an interest in football last year, when the World

:20:10. > :20:19.Cup was on, the knowledge is unbelievable. She knows more about

:20:19. > :20:24.my father them what I do! remarked on how good-looking he was,

:20:24. > :20:31.indeed have more like a Hollywood film star than a footballer. Proof,

:20:31. > :20:35.perhaps, that we'll fame never dies. I think she is made up, isn't she?

:20:35. > :20:40.Jackie would have been amazed that someone would travel that far

:20:40. > :20:43.across the world. We have another walk down memory lane tonight.

:20:43. > :20:47.We've some amazing pictures of a famous old sports ground in just a

:20:47. > :20:52.moment - but first, good news for one of the region's newest stadiums.

:20:52. > :20:54.Durham have been awarded a number of top-class cricket matches. In

:20:54. > :20:58.addition to the England/Australia One Day International next year,

:20:58. > :21:01.and Ashes Test in 2013, which were already planned, the county will

:21:01. > :21:04.now also host South Africa, India, Sri Lanka and New Zealand at its

:21:04. > :21:09.Chester le Street ground over the next five years.

:21:09. > :21:13.Now, to the sad story of Feethams. It's eight years since Darlington

:21:13. > :21:16.Football Club said farewell to what had been its home for more than a

:21:16. > :21:20.century. But this Sunday, one of the Quakers' most famous teams will

:21:20. > :21:23.return to the cricket ground next door, for a charity match to raise

:21:23. > :21:26.money for their former landlords. Some of the ex-players might be in

:21:26. > :21:29.for a bit of a shock, though, as Mark Tulip explains.

:21:29. > :21:33.Feethams - home to Darlington Cricket Club and, for 120 years

:21:33. > :21:37.before the controversial move to a swanky new out of town stadium, the

:21:37. > :21:40.football club too. Eight years after the club moved out - this.

:21:40. > :21:44.The North Terrace, affectionately known as the Tin Shed, is all that

:21:44. > :21:47.remains. The land that time forgot is set to re-developed for housing.

:21:47. > :21:50.Quite a shock for this man, David Hodgson, the ex Middlesbrough,

:21:50. > :22:00.Sunderland and Liverpool footballer who managed the Quakers three times

:22:00. > :22:01.

:22:01. > :22:05.over a decade. Treatise bizarre that in the 1999 season, we were

:22:05. > :22:10.stood here in the dug-out and there were 7000 fans in here. He would

:22:10. > :22:15.have thought this stadium would be as it is, believing we were one

:22:15. > :22:19.step away from promotion. Things might have been very different if

:22:19. > :22:23.they had redeveloped. There was the opportunity for the club to get

:22:23. > :22:27.together and take the step forward. George had his dream to build the

:22:27. > :22:30.Arena, believing that the football club would go on through the leaks.

:22:30. > :22:33.On Sunday, Hodgson will be on the touchline managing many of the

:22:33. > :22:40.famous 1999-2000 play-off team in a charity football match to raise

:22:40. > :22:46.funds for their old cricket club neighbours. The last are miles with

:22:46. > :22:51.this group of lads, we got beat! I hope it doesn't happen on Sunday.

:22:51. > :22:59.It was the last game, I was in charge with some of these players.

:22:59. > :23:06.These guys left after that. It was brilliant to see that people have

:23:06. > :23:09.got their name down. Everybody is feeling the pinch, we don't get

:23:09. > :23:16.people in the past like we used to, so it is difficult, but days like

:23:16. > :23:20.this can take us on a lot further unsubstantiated as for next year.

:23:21. > :23:29.They came -- the gates open at 12 for the charity match, with kick-

:23:29. > :23:32.off at 1:30pm. Staying with the history lessons, Middlesbrough

:23:32. > :23:36.manager Tony Mowbray thinks his current side have "the spirit of

:23:36. > :23:40.'86." The boss was captain of the Boro when the club nearly went to

:23:40. > :23:43.the wall, 25 years ago. But, just like they did then - despite being

:23:43. > :23:51.short of cash and short of players - the squad has pulled together,

:23:51. > :23:56.and they're on course to make it back to the top. You can see

:23:56. > :24:01.similarities back to the 1980s. We are a small group, a very young

:24:01. > :24:04.team. The team bonded together and with the decrease in this was this

:24:04. > :24:08.year, the group in the dressing room has got some strong

:24:08. > :24:14.personalities they keep it very tight with the desire not to lose.

:24:14. > :24:19.It has been a positive rather than a negative.

:24:19. > :24:27.We were talking about the glamour of the cruise ships earlier. Trade

:24:27. > :24:37.has one of those hourglass dresses on! We will see what is the weather

:24:37. > :24:37.

:24:37. > :24:46.Today we had plenty of sunshine around the north-east coast. A

:24:46. > :24:50.glorious start to the day. You know that the weather is good when

:24:50. > :24:57.Seathwaite, it the wettest inhabited place in the UK, get some

:24:57. > :25:01.good sunshine as well. As we head into the weekend, it does look like

:25:01. > :25:06.we will stayed mostly dry around the region and we will see

:25:06. > :25:11.temperatures warming up a little bit. Let us look at the

:25:11. > :25:16.temperatures first of all. Today the hype was about 16 Celsius which

:25:16. > :25:22.is about average. As we head into the weekend, look at the

:25:22. > :25:27.temperatures rising, peaking at 20 Celsius in North Yorkshire. This

:25:27. > :25:34.evening, and it is not so warm overnight but we should be mostly

:25:34. > :25:41.dry. There will be one not to clear spells and a bit of drizzle around

:25:41. > :25:47.the hills. Temperatures dropped to around ten Celsius. Tomorrow, we

:25:47. > :25:50.bind up the week in good style. A little bit of drizzle around the

:25:50. > :25:55.Northumberland coast in the morning but by the afternoon most of us

:25:55. > :26:01.will be dry and many of us will see the bright, sunny spells.

:26:01. > :26:09.Temperatures will be up a notch on today. 17-18 as we come into the

:26:09. > :26:13.North East and around Whitby. For the weekend, on Saturday although

:26:13. > :26:18.it looks like a cold front we will keep the temperatures on the Cup

:26:18. > :26:24.and for Saturday there will be like winds from the south-west, bringing

:26:24. > :26:28.the mild air. For Sunday, eventually after fine start, it

:26:29. > :26:33.does eventually started pushing some rain. This weather front shows

:26:33. > :26:40.the sting in the tail with some strong and gusty winds to end the

:26:40. > :26:46.night on Sunday into Monday, along with quite a bit of heavy rain. So

:26:46. > :26:51.a nasty end to what could be a fine weekend on the whole. So, a quick

:26:51. > :26:57.recap for Cumbria. Mostly dry until we get to Sunday with temperatures

:26:57. > :27:03.on the up. You will notice that the breeze starts to pick up later on

:27:03. > :27:13.Sunday. For the north-east, you'll get the crustiest wins on Sunday

:27:13. > :27:13.

:27:13. > :27:18.night but before that a decent Now, at last look at the headlines.

:27:18. > :27:24.Stock markets around the world have taken a hammering as the World Bank
