:00:08. > :00:13.The headlines: a grieving mother believes a hospital's financial

:00:13. > :00:17.problems could have caused her baby's death. He would have

:00:17. > :00:20.survived, given the right medical attention. People need to learn

:00:20. > :00:24.from their mistakes. It is not good enough.

:00:24. > :00:29.A detective sergeant is in court. He and his wife are accused of

:00:29. > :00:32.buying and selling cocaine. How hard are you working? A survey

:00:32. > :00:36.suggests that a fifth of the workforce are clocking up long

:00:36. > :00:40.hours. Going nowhere - �5,000 spent on a

:00:40. > :00:43.new shelter on a road which has not seen buses for two years.

:00:43. > :00:48.In sport, Middlesbrough are back in action after being frozen out of

:00:48. > :00:58.the weekend. And back to school for a couple of Newcastle United stars

:00:58. > :01:02.

:01:02. > :01:06.as they bring a new look to language lessons.

:01:06. > :01:10.A grieving mother believes financial problems at Scarborough

:01:10. > :01:13.Hospital might have led to her son's death. Sarah Wallace says she

:01:13. > :01:17.was told she could not see her newborn baby before he died because

:01:17. > :01:20.of staff shortages. She claims hospital staff failed to follow

:01:20. > :01:25.procedures that might have helped him survive. Harry Wallace was

:01:25. > :01:28.delivered eight weeks early by Caesarean section and taken to the

:01:28. > :01:34.special care baby unit. He died before his mother had a chance to

:01:34. > :01:38.hold him. The hospital has now settled a medical negligence case.

:01:38. > :01:42.I never met him. Briefly, when he was brought around the curtain

:01:42. > :01:48.after my C-section, I gave him a kiss. Then he was whisked off. I

:01:48. > :01:52.never saw his little toes or his hands. I never saw his just move,

:01:52. > :01:57.and I was not given him the opportunity to bond. Harry was

:01:57. > :02:01.eight weeks premature when born in Scarborough Hospital at 10pm one

:02:01. > :02:06.night. He was fine. There was nothing wrong with him at first. It

:02:06. > :02:10.was due to the hospital not carrying out tests and not

:02:10. > :02:15.intervening sooner to get him to the nearest neonatal unit. It is in

:02:15. > :02:21.their report that he would have survived, given the right medical

:02:21. > :02:27.attention. He was not intubated until after four in the morning. He

:02:27. > :02:31.should have been worked on at 12:30PM. Our evidence is clear that

:02:31. > :02:36.had he received the appropriate Respiratory Support, his death

:02:36. > :02:40.would have been avoided. Sarah says that at no point was the family

:02:40. > :02:43.told that Harry was in crisis. He was born at 10 and after the

:02:43. > :02:48.effects of her epidural wore off towards midnight, she repeatedly

:02:48. > :02:55.asked to be taken to see him in the special care baby unit. From

:02:55. > :02:58.11:40pm until 6:15am, I beg to see my son. What were you told? They

:02:59. > :03:08.were short staffed. That was the only reason, not because of your

:03:08. > :03:16.welfare? No. Short staffed. In a meeting six days later at the

:03:16. > :03:25.hospital, it was said they were short staffed. In a statement, the

:03:25. > :03:29.Harry's brother and mum have had to have counselling after his death.

:03:29. > :03:34.All Sarah wanted was a letter of apology. The financial settlement

:03:34. > :03:39.cannot, she says, ever compensate for their loss. A catalogue of

:03:39. > :03:43.errors. Huge mistakes made by various people contributed to my

:03:43. > :03:50.son's death. People need to learn from their mistakes. It is not good

:03:50. > :03:53.enough. A detective has appeared in court

:03:53. > :03:57.charged with buying and selling Class A drugs. Detective Sergeant

:03:57. > :04:01.Paul Thompson from Northumbria Police is also accused of ensuring

:04:01. > :04:05.that his criminal friends stayed ahead of the law by accessing

:04:05. > :04:09.confidential police records. He and his wife, who was described in

:04:09. > :04:15.court as a high-flying Housing Executive, allegedly supplied their

:04:15. > :04:19.friends with cocaine. They deny all charges.

:04:19. > :04:22.This case at Newcastle Crown Court is the result of months of

:04:23. > :04:27.undercover surveillance. Officers keeping watch on a fellow policeman,

:04:27. > :04:31.his wife and their associates. Detective Sergeant Paul Thompson

:04:31. > :04:35.and Susan Thompson from Dipton in County Durham deny conspiracy to

:04:35. > :04:40.supply Class A drugs. Mr Thompson denies separate misconduct in

:04:40. > :04:45.public office and cocaine possession charges.

:04:45. > :04:48.The prosecuting QC said that this is the extraordinary situation of a

:04:49. > :04:53.successful business executive source in the supply of Class A

:04:53. > :04:58.drugs via her husband, a serving police officer, via a criminal

:04:58. > :05:03.network whose back he is covering by checking the police computer

:05:03. > :05:06.system. The Crown says it was a criminal network headed by a man

:05:06. > :05:10.from Northumberland who invested half a million pounds in stocks and

:05:10. > :05:17.shares when he previously sold a few second-hand cars. The drugs

:05:17. > :05:20.were distributed by his brother using safe houses and low-level

:05:20. > :05:25.dealers like Brian Thompson, who supplied his half brother Paul and

:05:25. > :05:29.Susan Thompson, who in turn supplied their friends. The family

:05:29. > :05:37.admit conspiracy to supply a class A drug, but deny conspiracy to

:05:37. > :05:40.commit misconduct in public office. The prosecuting QC continued that

:05:40. > :05:44.all the time Paul Thompson, in flagrant contravention of his role

:05:44. > :05:54.in the police, is acting as the eyes and ears of the organisation.

:05:54. > :05:56.

:05:56. > :05:59.The trial is expected to last six weeks.

:05:59. > :06:04.Prosecutors have recovered more than half a million pounds from the

:06:04. > :06:09.wife of back from the dead canoeist on Darwin. Darwin fake to her own

:06:09. > :06:12.death in a canoeing accident in 2002 so that his wife Anne could

:06:12. > :06:16.claim on insurance policies and pension schemes. The couple, from

:06:16. > :06:20.Seaton Carew, were jailed at Teesside Crown Court in 2008 for

:06:20. > :06:24.the swindle. A long awaited City bypass opened

:06:24. > :06:30.this afternoon in Cumbria. The Carlisle bypass has been 12 years

:06:30. > :06:34.in the making and cost �170 million to build. The Northern Development

:06:34. > :06:43.rig should ease congestion through the city by diverting traffic from

:06:43. > :06:49.the M6 heading for West Cumbria. Our reporter is there.

:06:49. > :06:53.Yes, there have been plenty of cars using the bypass since two p and

:06:53. > :06:56.this afternoon. Everyone we have spoken to is delighted that it is

:06:57. > :07:01.finally opened. People who live in the City say they are glad that

:07:01. > :07:04.congestion will be used. Those who just want to get from the M6 to the

:07:04. > :07:10.rest of the county say they are happy that they will get a faster

:07:10. > :07:14.route. It was a relatively slow start to

:07:14. > :07:20.the opening of the road which aims to speed things up in and around

:07:20. > :07:25.Carlisle. The not so snappily named Carlisle northern development which

:07:25. > :07:29.will send traffic from junction 44 of the M6 to the west of Cumbria,

:07:29. > :07:33.avoiding the city centre. It will open up the avenues of transport

:07:33. > :07:36.links into West Cumbria, which will give businesses the chance to

:07:37. > :07:41.increase turnover, improve the economy and employment

:07:41. > :07:46.opportunities. It will be good for our business for us but we do

:07:46. > :07:52.transport a lot of materials into white heaven, so it will help us on

:07:52. > :07:57.that side and reduce our cost base by saving time. It will also free

:07:57. > :08:05.up the traffic going into Carlisle. The bypass is just over five miles

:08:05. > :08:11.long. It cost �176 million to build, and took 15 years to create from

:08:11. > :08:16.designed to today's opening. The road is made up of nine roundabouts.

:08:16. > :08:20.It turns into Weybridge in two places. But it is not just about

:08:20. > :08:25.the motor vehicles. It has a foot and cycle path which runs the

:08:25. > :08:31.entire length of it. It is safer for us, because it gives us a nice,

:08:31. > :08:35.easy route from the north to the West, hopefully traffic-free now.

:08:35. > :08:41.We have family that lived in the west of the city. It will be so

:08:41. > :08:45.much quicker and safer to get across. It will be great! It is

:08:45. > :08:50.half-term this week, so it might be another seven days before we see

:08:50. > :08:57.how much good the new bypass is doing. But today the road got

:08:57. > :09:01.plenty of visits from first-time users. One person I spoke to this

:09:01. > :09:06.morning said she believed this route could revolutionise her life,

:09:06. > :09:09.cutting one of her regular journeys from 30 minutes to 10. Early

:09:09. > :09:16.indications are good. There were far fewer cars in Carlisle this

:09:16. > :09:20.evening. It is 20 years to be based in

:09:20. > :09:24.Sunderland became a city. It was an honour bestowed on it by the Queen

:09:24. > :09:29.to mark her 40th year on the throne. She will create another city to

:09:29. > :09:32.mark her 60th, and among the town's hoping to get the not this time are

:09:32. > :09:37.Middlesbrough and Gateshead. They both believe the prestige will mean

:09:37. > :09:41.greater prosperity, but has that happened to Sunderland? Our chief

:09:41. > :09:46.reporter found something of a surprise in Wearside.

:09:46. > :09:50.Within view of the bridge is the story of how this city has changed.

:09:50. > :09:55.They used to be a colliery. There is now a football stadium. There

:09:55. > :10:00.was a shipyard. There is now a university. There was a brewery.

:10:00. > :10:04.There is now a big gap. But jobs lost have been replaced by jobs won

:10:04. > :10:09.and the council will tell you more than 60 foreign companies have been

:10:09. > :10:13.brought here, which together employ nearly 18,000 people. There is a

:10:13. > :10:18.long list of countries keen to invest on Wearside. The United

:10:18. > :10:23.States, France, Germany, Spain, Sweden. This lot are from

:10:23. > :10:30.Luxembourg. But were they attracted here because Sunderland is a city?

:10:30. > :10:34.We don't know. Astonishingly, nobody thought to find out.

:10:34. > :10:38.city has changed immeasurably over the last 20 years. Can you put it

:10:38. > :10:44.down to city status? Is in to do with the University becoming a

:10:44. > :10:50.university? Is it the general economy? Nobody has done the

:10:50. > :10:56.research. It would be a challenging piece to do if you did. There was a

:10:56. > :11:00.lot of euphoria in that year, 1992. We had city status and the

:11:00. > :11:06.Polytechnic became a university. It was a great year. Perhaps there was

:11:06. > :11:11.a case of, what next? A lot of it was down to individuals to drive

:11:11. > :11:15.their own positive agendas. Back to the brewery. It was making money,

:11:15. > :11:20.but those pulling the financial strings in London decided that they

:11:20. > :11:25.want to concentrate on hotels instead, so the brewery was closed.

:11:25. > :11:28.It's hard broken manager there was Frank Nicholson, a man who lives

:11:28. > :11:33.and breathes Sunderland. His grandfather was the aldermen who

:11:33. > :11:39.oversaw the building of where mouth Bridge. What does he think city

:11:39. > :11:43.status has meant? It is harder to say that city status, nationally or

:11:43. > :11:47.regionally, has particularly helped. Perhaps internationally. If you go

:11:47. > :11:53.to Japan, people would talk with huge pride about the City of

:11:53. > :11:58.Sunderland on the back of the great Nissan. Is Nissan more important

:11:58. > :12:05.than city status will ever be? course city status is a matter of

:12:05. > :12:15.civic pride. But for civic prosperity, Nissan is commercial

:12:15. > :12:16.

:12:16. > :12:21.pride and prosperity, and it is the latter that matters. Oh ye, O ye.

:12:21. > :12:26.The Borough of Sunderland shall have the status of a city. That

:12:26. > :12:30.Sunderland got city status in 1992 was perhaps a surprise. Look at the

:12:30. > :12:37.sign. It looks as if it was made that morning. The next 20 years

:12:37. > :12:41.could bring equally dramatic changes. What will stay the same,

:12:41. > :12:49.they say, is the spirit to deal with whatever those changes might

:12:49. > :12:52.A north-east council has been left red-faced after it build a new bus

:12:52. > :12:57.shelter on a road which judges thought has not seen any buses for

:12:57. > :13:01.two years. Durham County Council spent over �5,000 on the shelter at

:13:01. > :13:07.Framwellgate Moor in Durham following a mix-up between the

:13:07. > :13:12.council and the bus company Arriva. At a time when people are skint and

:13:12. > :13:17.councils are being squeezed, spending �5,000 on a new bus

:13:17. > :13:22.shelter where no buses run seems a bit extravagant, to say the least.

:13:22. > :13:28.I am from Mississippi in the States. It is good to be here. What do you

:13:28. > :13:34.think of this luxurious bus shelter? It seems all right. It is

:13:34. > :13:39.lacking one important thing. What is that? Bosses. Really? Yes, you

:13:39. > :13:45.will not get a bus here. The council have put this bus shelter

:13:45. > :13:49.up, and this is not a bus route. But his says bus stop. It does say

:13:49. > :13:57.that and this is a bus shelter, but no buses come down this road and

:13:57. > :14:01.haven't for some time. This cost �5,000. Someone did not get a deal.

:14:01. > :14:04.Identifying the precise timetable of this sequence of events has been

:14:04. > :14:08.impossible to date, but Darren council says before it built the

:14:08. > :14:12.shutter, it checked with bus company Arriva and was told the

:14:12. > :14:17.writ was still in place. Arriva subsequently confirmed that that

:14:17. > :14:20.was not the case. Arriva says there seems to have been a

:14:20. > :14:25.misunderstanding, as it has not used this stop for some time.

:14:25. > :14:30.According to some local people, it has not been used for two years.

:14:30. > :14:34.You might think this business has been an embarrassing waste of time.

:14:34. > :14:37.And taxpayers' money. But Durham council said that because they can

:14:37. > :14:41.relocate the shelter to a route that does carry buses, the cost to

:14:42. > :14:51.the taxpayer will just be the cost of picking this up and putting it

:14:51. > :14:54.somewhere else, in the region of �600.

:14:54. > :14:59.Now, at this time of high unemployment, you might count

:14:59. > :15:03.yourself lucky to have a job. But are you working too hard to keep

:15:03. > :15:09.yourself in work? In the north, more than 200,000 people are

:15:09. > :15:16.working more than 45 hours a week. This week, our big question is, how

:15:16. > :15:20.hard are we working? In Britain, we work on average

:15:20. > :15:26.nearly 43 hours a week, one of the highest figures in Europe. Let's

:15:26. > :15:29.compare it with Denmark. The Danes' average working week is just 39

:15:29. > :15:34.hours. Although the North East has the highest unemployment in the

:15:34. > :15:39.country, nearly 66% of us still have a job and many of us worked

:15:39. > :15:49.long hours to keep it. 21% of us in the north-east would more than 45

:15:49. > :15:53.

:15:53. > :15:58.hours every week. So how hard it are we really working?

:15:58. > :16:03.A squeezed economy. Budgets are tight, redundancy a threat to the

:16:03. > :16:07.many of us. But a million people in the north-east still have a job. If

:16:07. > :16:11.you have one, are you working too hard to hang on to it? Paul runs

:16:11. > :16:18.his own front -- printing firm near Gateshead. It has faced tough

:16:18. > :16:24.economic times. Paul is working 60 to 80 hours a week. Typical hours -

:16:24. > :16:28.probably start at eight-9 on a Monday morning. And I would finish

:16:28. > :16:33.at seven or 8 o'clock that night. That continues for five days.

:16:33. > :16:37.Usually on Saturday, a work in the morning. And sometimes on Sunday.

:16:37. > :16:42.It has caused a few problems, especially when my wife was

:16:42. > :16:46.pregnant with twins. I got half a day off for the birth, and then

:16:46. > :16:51.back to work! But for the 200 and they juju 1000 people like Paul,

:16:51. > :16:58.working long hours in the region, there could be a price to pay.

:16:58. > :17:06.Working too hard could damage your health. For a lot of people in fear

:17:06. > :17:10.of losing their job, in those circumstances, work may have

:17:10. > :17:14.adverse effects on their health. Are we working longer to compensate

:17:14. > :17:20.for the fact that in any particular how we are working, our

:17:20. > :17:26.productivity is less? Working longer to combat the fact that we

:17:26. > :17:29.do not work as smartly as some of our European colleagues? Council

:17:29. > :17:33.library and Rachel is convinced that she is a smart worker, but

:17:33. > :17:38.when we caught up with her, she was at home, finding her own books.

:17:38. > :17:43.Why? She is on a zero hours contract, meaning she has no set

:17:43. > :17:49.hours and could get no work at all. She is only paid when she works. It

:17:49. > :17:53.is all legal. It keeps you at a very insecure level where you do

:17:53. > :17:58.not know what money you have got coming in. It seems that employers

:17:58. > :18:02.want to do that more and more. They do not give you different hours. It

:18:02. > :18:06.is all temporary, part term contracts. People take what they

:18:06. > :18:12.can get. Zero hours contracts and agency workers are becoming the

:18:12. > :18:17.norm. The unions say contracts like this are on the increase. These

:18:18. > :18:24.contracts are now coming into the public sector to a large extent,

:18:24. > :18:29.including in local government, has -- health, universities and the

:18:29. > :18:34.police service. These days, with unemployment and a squeezed economy,

:18:34. > :18:38.work feels more fragile. Many of us will do anything to keep in work.

:18:38. > :18:44.If we have a job, we may count our blessings, but should we also be

:18:44. > :18:49.counting the cost? In tomorrow's Look North, we will

:18:49. > :18:58.hear from the Tyneside factory boss who only provides sick-pay when his

:18:58. > :19:03.staff have been ill for a fortnight. Time for the sport now. Some

:19:03. > :19:08.Newcastle players have been back in the classroom? Yes. Not sure how

:19:08. > :19:11.much work got done. With English spoken by so many

:19:11. > :19:16.people around the world, we are often accused of not taking foreign

:19:16. > :19:19.languages seriously enough. Two members of Newcastle United's

:19:19. > :19:29.foreign legion have been back to school to spread the word about

:19:29. > :19:32.

:19:32. > :19:36.their mother tongues, Spanish and French.

:19:36. > :19:40.Meet one of the Magpies' French- speaking midfielders here at the

:19:40. > :19:45.Newcastle School for Boys. And in the Spanish class, the Argentinian

:19:45. > :19:49.famous for his spider Max -- Spider-Man mask goal celebration,

:19:49. > :19:55.Gutierrez. But what were the youngsters keen to ask? We asked,

:19:55. > :20:03.do you like PlayStation or Xbox? What is your favourite food? Do you

:20:04. > :20:10.like the atmosphere at St James's Park? I was asked a question in

:20:10. > :20:14.French. What would you have been if he had not been a footballer?

:20:14. > :20:22.have been playing football since I was young. If I had not played

:20:22. > :20:28.football, I don't know what I could do. It was a good question. And the

:20:28. > :20:38.message from Gutierrez is, whatever your foreign language, start

:20:38. > :20:39.

:20:39. > :20:44.learning early. I studied when I was young at school. When you start

:20:44. > :20:50.to learn a language, practice and start talking. It gives you more

:20:50. > :20:53.vocabulary. And you can speak more. On the pitch, it is a busy

:20:53. > :20:58.programme of League and non-League football tonight. For Middlesbrough,

:20:58. > :21:08.there is a chance to regain some lost ground after Saturday's wasted

:21:08. > :21:09.

:21:09. > :21:13.trip to Ipswich. All that way for nothing, and now

:21:13. > :21:18.Boro need to take something from Nottingham Forest because they have

:21:18. > :21:24.not won in the League since Boxing Day. The boss says it is not as bad

:21:24. > :21:29.as it sounds. It is not the end of the world. In context, we have lost

:21:29. > :21:38.six league matches out of the 20- odd we played this year. We need to

:21:38. > :21:44.be positive. I am sure we will finish Gong Li. In League One, a

:22:04. > :22:09.that would be a big thing to build on. As well tonight, two of our

:22:38. > :22:41.just the one for. I am talking about a card. You can hardly escape

:22:42. > :22:47.from Valentine's Day and ladies, if you are feeling romantic, your

:22:47. > :22:51.chance to pop the question is just around the corner. 2012 is a leap

:22:51. > :22:56.year, so traditionally, women can propose to their sweethearts on

:22:56. > :23:03.February 29th. I am spoken for already. But where is the most

:23:03. > :23:07.romantic place in the north to propose?

:23:07. > :23:12.OK, ladies, love is in the air and you want to find the perfect place

:23:12. > :23:18.to pop the question. Yes, there are posh restaurants and flash hotels,

:23:18. > :23:22.but the great outdoors have a lot going for them romance-wise, even

:23:22. > :23:27.in winter. And a stroll around the snowy tops of the Lake District is

:23:27. > :23:34.guaranteed to melt a few hearts. If you are rusty on the flirting front,

:23:34. > :23:39.some of the local ladies can give you tips. And if we're there seems

:23:39. > :23:44.a bit chilly, remember, ladies, the colder it is, the closer you will

:23:44. > :23:49.have to cuddle up to keep warm. It saves on the bills, too. The

:23:50. > :23:55.classic romance, you can't beat the subtle and delicate displays of

:23:55. > :23:59.winter. Many of the region's stately homes, including here, have

:23:59. > :24:03.carpets of these little winter Jules, just bursting out. If you

:24:03. > :24:09.fancy a different way of saying it with flowers, it does not get much

:24:09. > :24:13.more romantic than this. But if your sweetheart does not respond to

:24:13. > :24:16.subtlety, baps the sound of wedding bells will be the helpful hint he

:24:16. > :24:21.needs. The region's judges and cathedrals are some of the finest

:24:21. > :24:30.in the country, and there is no harm in trying a few on for size

:24:30. > :24:34.while you are out. If he does not run screaming, he is a keeper! Or

:24:34. > :24:39.perhaps you need to bring out the really big guns. It may not be the

:24:39. > :24:43.most subtle approach, but propose at one of the region's windswept

:24:43. > :24:48.castles, and he is bound to come over all Heathcliff. And I think

:24:48. > :24:52.you can take that as a yes. At the end of the day, if your budget does

:24:52. > :24:56.not stretch to flash restaurants, don't worry - what man will turn

:24:56. > :25:05.you down if you give him chips, especially with a killer view of

:25:05. > :25:11.the seaside? Exactly. See, it works! So don't be shy, ladies,

:25:11. > :25:17.make your move. The 29th is not far away.

:25:17. > :25:27.And you can tell that was not set up, because she is all embarrassed!

:25:29. > :25:33.And he was not bad! He was lovely, It has been a very mild Valentine's

:25:33. > :25:37.Day Today, but I have been saved in this weather picture for you.

:25:37. > :25:42.Apparently, the arts and the laughter about ten minutes.

:25:42. > :25:51.Tomorrow, it will be even milder. But there will be sunny spells

:25:51. > :26:01.around. It will be generally cloudy around the region. That makes for a

:26:01. > :26:05.really mild night. Tonight it is all in positive figures. Nice and

:26:05. > :26:09.quiet for a change. Tomorrow morning, we start with the cloud.

:26:09. > :26:13.Most of us will stay dry through the day tomorrow. And the cloud

:26:13. > :26:16.will start to break up through the afternoon. We will get bright and

:26:16. > :26:23.sunny spells, particularly in central and eastern parts of the

:26:23. > :26:29.region. Temperatures are in double figures just about everywhere. Very

:26:29. > :26:36.mild for this time of year on Wednesday. On Thursday, we start to

:26:36. > :26:39.see this lovely high pressure system collapse a bit. Some rain

:26:39. > :26:46.will come across us on Thursday. But it will keep heading south and

:26:46. > :26:50.we should be dry in most places for the end of the week on Friday. But

:26:50. > :26:54.Cumbria, tomorrow will be the brightest day and the warmest,

:26:55. > :26:59.before the rain comes in on Thursday. It might be slow to clear

:26:59. > :27:04.from your patch on Friday. But temperatures are staying up right

:27:04. > :27:09.the way through the week. Further east, the daytime temperatures are

:27:09. > :27:14.mild, but in the night time, we also have positive figures. We

:27:14. > :27:17.should stay frost-free. Apart from a bit of rain on Thursday, it is

:27:17. > :27:22.not looking bad for the next few days. If you are out and about,

:27:22. > :27:26.send us your weather pictures. Some of you still have snow. Some of you
