:00:05. > :00:12.Hello and welcome to Thursday's Look North. Tonight - a sign of the

:00:12. > :00:20.times at St. James's Park. But it's a moment in the club's history

:00:20. > :00:25.that's gone down badly with the fans. It's like changing the name

:00:25. > :00:28.of the Queen or Buckingham Palace to Pizza Hut. Ridiculous. The Duke

:00:28. > :00:30.of York comes north to open a �53 million college of education.

:00:30. > :00:34.Remembering a County Durham pit disaster which claimed the lives of

:00:34. > :00:41.74 men and boys. And - get ready to rock and rap. The line-up for one

:00:41. > :00:44.of the north's big summer music festivals is unveiled. In sport,

:00:44. > :00:53.one of Boro's top stars is on his way this summer. Will Arsenal's

:00:53. > :01:03.mauling in Milan help the Black Cats reach a cup quarter-final?

:01:03. > :01:04.

:01:05. > :01:08.Will Wells bow out in style at his fourth and final Olympics? They

:01:08. > :01:11.said they would do it and they have. Newcastle United today began

:01:11. > :01:16.removing the signs outside St. James's Park to make way for the

:01:16. > :01:20.stadium's new name - the Sports Direct Arena. And, unsurprisngly,

:01:20. > :01:23.it hasn't gone down well with the fans. The move was widely condemned

:01:23. > :01:25.when it was announced back in November. But today came the moment

:01:25. > :01:35.many had been dreading. Let's join our Chief Reporter, Chris Stewart,

:01:35. > :01:39.

:01:39. > :01:43.who's outside the stadium now for us now. St James' Park since 1892,

:01:43. > :01:48.but tonight it no longer carries the name. You say it hasn't gone

:01:48. > :01:51.down well with the stans. I think that's an understatement. -- with

:01:52. > :01:56.the fans. I think that's an understatement. Lunch time today.

:01:56. > :02:00.Our cameraman spotted this. He wasn't the only one. What's going

:02:00. > :02:05.on there? Disgrace. You think it's wrong? Of course I do. I think

:02:05. > :02:09.everybody does, don't they? It's just like changing the name of the

:02:09. > :02:13.Queen or changing Buckingham Palace's name to Pizza Hut. It's

:02:13. > :02:16.that ridiculous. What about the men doing the work? They were having to

:02:16. > :02:24.deal with a number of lively comments, let's say. Time to try to

:02:24. > :02:29.talk to them. 120 years of history gone and the chaps, who have been

:02:29. > :02:34.doing this work, now they've seen us, they've decided to go as well.

:02:34. > :02:37.Not surprising really. They've come under all kinds of abuse from taxi

:02:37. > :02:45.drivers. It isn't their fault. It wasn't their decision, but they've

:02:45. > :02:50.borne the brunt of it. Those observing their handiwork weren't

:02:50. > :02:56.so reticent. Not going to change it despite the name on there. It's in

:02:56. > :03:02.here that matters. I don't think it will catch on. It won't catch on

:03:02. > :03:10.with the fans. As for official comment, the club had this to say -

:03:10. > :03:18.nothing. Chris, you are going to get stick for calling it that on

:03:18. > :03:21.company look km north, aren't you? -- Look North? I suppose that is

:03:21. > :03:28.inevitable and other parts of the media are campaigning to keep the

:03:28. > :03:31.name, but we are BBC News and we can't do that. Chris, the poor guys,

:03:31. > :03:37.I feel sorry for them because they are the ones taking the sign down

:03:37. > :03:42.and they might be fans themselves? Yeah, you have to feel sorry for

:03:42. > :03:46.them. While we were standing here, they were getting all kinds of

:03:46. > :03:49.abuse from taxi drivers and others, but as we say, it isn't their fault.

:03:49. > :03:53.One of them said to me actually that if this job was going to have

:03:53. > :03:57.to be done, he would rather it had been done at night. Chris, thank

:03:57. > :04:00.you. The Duke of York was in Hartlepool today to officially open

:04:00. > :04:02.the town's new �53 million College of Education. Hartlepool

:04:02. > :04:08.specialises in the training of engineers for the automotive and

:04:08. > :04:11.aerospace industries. Part of the new complex includes a full-size

:04:11. > :04:18.aircraft hanger thought to be the only one of its kind in educational

:04:18. > :04:23.use in the country. The Duke of York inspects the fuselage of a

:04:23. > :04:26.helicopter. He once flew Sea Kings while serving in the Royal Navy.

:04:26. > :04:28.Here at Hartlepool College they're in the business of training

:04:28. > :04:38.engineers.There are 8,000 students, 700 of them with jobs in local

:04:38. > :04:40.

:04:40. > :04:44.industry. At the minute we and Kieron are taking off the tale

:04:44. > :04:48.ready for service and checking all the logs first. It's all

:04:48. > :04:52.interesting. I just love working with cars. Me and my grandad

:04:52. > :04:57.started and I wanted to do a qualification. The Duke will

:04:57. > :05:01.remember these as the basic trainer with the RAF in the 70s and 80s.

:05:01. > :05:06.Today in this extraordinary hanger, they're being used to inspire the

:05:06. > :05:11.engineers of the future. According to local employers, job prospects

:05:11. > :05:18.nor those with the right skills are steadily improving. We are seeing

:05:18. > :05:23.great prospects for expansion. As a business, we have expanded by over

:05:23. > :05:27.20% in the last two years and employed another 150 people into

:05:27. > :05:34.the plant in Stockton-on-Tees. Duke had these words of

:05:34. > :05:39.encouragement. The challenge that we face is to reduce as best we can,

:05:39. > :05:46.the number of young unemployed in this country. It's really hardening

:05:46. > :05:56.to see a college like this committed to -- heartening, to see

:05:56. > :05:57.

:05:57. > :06:02.a college like this doing that. are making sure that people are

:06:02. > :06:08.coming out with the rightical quaitions, background, to actually

:06:08. > :06:14.take -- qualifications, background to actually take people on to

:06:14. > :06:17.further qualifications. A 40-year- old man, whose body was found in a

:06:17. > :06:20.burning flat in Northumberland, has been named by police. Father-of-two,

:06:20. > :06:23.Jason Lockwood, was discovered in his flat in Nordale House, in Blyth,

:06:23. > :06:26.on Tuesday morning. Police say he'd been brutally murdered. Two men,

:06:26. > :06:28.aged 23 and 28, have been arrested on suspicion of murder. Detectives

:06:28. > :06:38.say they've received several anonymous calls providing crucial

:06:38. > :06:42.

:06:42. > :06:46.information and they need those callers to get back in touch. There

:06:46. > :06:50.are a number of people who have provided crucial information, but

:06:50. > :06:54.have chosen to do it anonymously. I would appeal to those people,

:06:54. > :06:59.please contact us again. Please let us know who you are, we'll send

:06:59. > :07:02.detectives out to speak to you in confidence, but you have got, I'm

:07:02. > :07:05.confident, the information out there within the community which

:07:05. > :07:08.could have a massive impact on the conclusion of this case Petitions

:07:08. > :07:10.containing thousands of signatures against plans to close care homes

:07:10. > :07:13.in West Cumbria have been handed to the County Council today..

:07:13. > :07:18.Campaigners are fighting proposals to shut Richmond Park Care Home in

:07:18. > :07:24.Workington Park Lodge in Aspatria and Woodlands in Distington. A

:07:24. > :07:28.final decision's expected next month. A Workington road will

:07:28. > :07:31.remain closed until tomorrow, at least, following a gas leak. Murray

:07:31. > :07:34.Road was shut on Tuesday, and while most shops have re-opened, two

:07:34. > :07:37.remain closed because of residual traces of gas. Northern Gas

:07:37. > :07:47.Networks says it's waiting to confirm there's no second leak

:07:47. > :07:59.

:07:59. > :08:02.before restoring the road. Today marked the 130th anniversary of the

:08:02. > :08:05.Trimdon Grange Colliery disaster in which 74 men and boys lost their

:08:05. > :08:07.lives. It was an explosion underground that caused the tragedy

:08:07. > :08:10.on February 16th 1882. This afternoon a memorial service was

:08:10. > :08:20.held in the County Durham pit village, in the cemetery where 44

:08:20. > :08:33.

:08:33. > :08:38.of the victims were buried. Peter Brown, 50. James Buoyed McDonald,

:08:38. > :08:42.13. It was a gas explosion underground that caused the

:08:42. > :08:48.disaster. Among the dead were a rescue party entering the mine from

:08:48. > :08:52.the neighbouring pit. 74 men and boys died in the disaster at the

:08:52. > :08:55.colliery. The youngest were just 12 years old. Among the stories that

:08:55. > :09:01.emerged, the mother who lost all three of her sons and the young

:09:01. > :09:05.woman who was due to be married on the Saturday. But instead attended

:09:05. > :09:10.a funeral. People had to go down the mine to work, because that was

:09:10. > :09:13.the only jobs. Eventually you got miners saying, I don't want my son

:09:13. > :09:20.to go down the mine. It's the remembrance of the great things

:09:20. > :09:23.done for us in the past. constituency agent, John Burton was

:09:23. > :09:27.a familiar figure during Tony Blair's years as the MP. This was

:09:27. > :09:32.the memorial service in 1989. Tony Blair's successor laid the wreath

:09:32. > :09:37.today. He grew up in Trimdon. remember the colliery being opened.

:09:37. > :09:40.My father was a miner for 40 years, so I really feel I have a close

:09:40. > :09:43.bond with the community around here. It's important to continue to

:09:43. > :09:47.remember what has gone before, because this whole area has been

:09:47. > :09:51.built on coal. A folk song to commemorate the explosion was

:09:51. > :10:01.written the night of the disaster. It's a haunting reminder of that

:10:01. > :10:10.dreadful day. # Let's think of Mrs Burnett, once

:10:10. > :10:18.her sons, but now has none # By the Trimdo Grange explosion,

:10:18. > :10:22.Joseph George and James are gone... # Memories of a terrible tragedy.

:10:22. > :10:25.It could mean tens of thousands of jobs for the north and now the

:10:25. > :10:28.Government's being urged to spend the money to make it a reality.

:10:28. > :10:30.Northern Hub is a plan to massively upgrade the railways to allow more

:10:31. > :10:33.trains with faster journey times. And today councils across northern

:10:33. > :10:43.England joined forces in support, claiming it would provide a vital

:10:43. > :10:43.

:10:44. > :10:47.boost to our economy. Peter Harris reports. The train, we love them.

:10:47. > :10:51.When you think about the system, it's terrible. We travel in Europe

:10:51. > :10:54.and it's a breeze and clean and affordable. Britain is the worst.

:10:54. > :10:58.think the biggest problem is the amount of people using the trains.

:10:58. > :11:03.Particularly at peak times, the trains seem to be congested, and

:11:03. > :11:08.standing room only. There's so many people using them now, that I have

:11:08. > :11:16.got no other means of travel, I have to use them. It might get

:11:16. > :11:20.better in nerl gets its way. -- Network Rail gets its way. It says

:11:20. > :11:26.if we can better and faster trains it could be worth �4 billion to the

:11:26. > :11:30.north's economy. And by 2020 it wants to see 700 extra trains

:11:31. > :11:37.running across the north every day. There are those who say it needs to

:11:37. > :11:40.happen. If you invest in one area, the benefits ripple out from town

:11:40. > :11:43.and city and obviously we need access into Manchester and through

:11:43. > :11:47.Manchester to different places too. There's going to be real benefits

:11:47. > :11:50.for businesses up here, but investment in the likes of

:11:50. > :11:53.Newcastle as well. It sends a message to investors that we are

:11:53. > :11:57.open for business and we have the connections that are needed.

:11:57. > :12:02.Network Rail claims more of us want to travel by train, so unless we

:12:02. > :12:05.get more of them fares and overcrowding will keep rising.

:12:05. > :12:09.Today, Newcastle joined other northern councils in asking the

:12:09. > :12:12.Government for the cash. Some claim a journey from Newcastle to

:12:12. > :12:17.Manchester could end up half an hour shorter. Most of the work,

:12:17. > :12:21.though, is for the big north-west cities. If the Government does

:12:21. > :12:31.provide the money, Network Rail says work could start in two years'

:12:31. > :12:34.

:12:34. > :12:37.time. Is the road ready -- is the north ready for the electric car?

:12:37. > :12:41.Our reporter has been driving an electric car and relying on public

:12:41. > :12:47.charging stations to keep him on the road. He's just given it back,

:12:47. > :12:52.so is he missing it already? Or glad to see the back of it? A car

:12:52. > :12:57.that you plug into the mains instead of filling up with petrol

:12:57. > :13:02.is science fiction made real. No exhaust fumes, silent running and

:13:02. > :13:07.cheap power, but if it was that good, surely weighed all do it? --

:13:07. > :13:12.we would all do it? The Nissan Leaf claims 100 miles in range, but

:13:12. > :13:14.that's only if you don't put the heating on. Even the biggest

:13:14. > :13:18.proponents acknowledge that electric vehicles aren't for

:13:18. > :13:24.everyone. Initially most of the car companies are look ing to get 10%

:13:24. > :13:30.of the market, so it's infrequent users and city users. They are the

:13:30. > :13:34.main market. People who do 300 miles a week, it's not for them.

:13:34. > :13:37.With over 340 charging stations and seven fast chargers to top you up

:13:37. > :13:41.in 30 minutes, the north-east is the best-connected region in the

:13:41. > :13:46.country. We also have a huge amount of investment and research tied up

:13:46. > :13:50.in the future of electric vehicles. I'll miss the Leaf, I really will.

:13:50. > :13:53.I'll miss the whole experience of driving an electric vehicle around

:13:53. > :13:56.the north-east. But what I won't miss is the sense of anxiety that I

:13:56. > :14:01.often felt about whether I had enough charge to get to where I

:14:01. > :14:05.wanted to go and I won't miss having to make a choice between

:14:05. > :14:09.getting to my destination or having the heating on in the car. Now I'll

:14:10. > :14:15.have a full report for you on the network and the car in the next few

:14:15. > :14:24.weeks, but for the moment, I'll say goodbye to the Nissan Leaf. We look

:14:25. > :14:29.forward to the report. Still to come this Thursday evening -

:14:29. > :14:33.unveiled - the line-up for one of the north's top, summer music

:14:33. > :14:40.festivals. In the forecast, it looks like spring in the moment,

:14:40. > :14:43.but winter's on its way back for the weekend. Now, many of us have

:14:43. > :14:46.collected autographs of the rich and famous at some time in our

:14:46. > :14:50.lives, but for one man in Scarborough, it's been something of

:14:50. > :14:54.a life's work. Paul Bradley now has an astonishing collection of

:14:54. > :15:02.signatures and pictures and some of them have been published in a new

:15:02. > :15:07.book. Danny Carpenter reports. We all have photo albums, but none

:15:07. > :15:13.like these. Paul Bradley is in nearly every shot and so are some

:15:13. > :15:18.of the most famous people on the planet. Living or dead. Sadly, we

:15:18. > :15:24.lost Amy Winehouse, who I had the pleasure of meeting. I have met

:15:24. > :15:29.McFly and managed to get my picture with JLS and Alexandra Burke and

:15:29. > :15:36.working my way through the pop stars, from Paul Anchor and Frank

:15:36. > :15:40.Sinatra, one of the big names. Bradley has managed to get pictures

:15:40. > :15:47.and autographs with people that most people would never dream of

:15:47. > :15:51.meeting. Here we have Russell Crowe. I met him on his film set in

:15:51. > :15:56.Piccadilly Circus. Paul has asspergeers syndrome, a form of

:15:56. > :16:02.autism, his condition has driven the collection. There are more than

:16:02. > :16:05.6,000 pictures and he remembers every single one. The bodyguard

:16:05. > :16:10.said you don't approach Mr Spielberg like that. When he came

:16:10. > :16:15.out of the hotel I gave him a full explanation and apologised for my

:16:15. > :16:20.hissityness and he just patted me on the shoulder and said, "Don't

:16:20. > :16:25.worry." He puts you totally at your ease and he chatted to me and let

:16:25. > :16:31.me have the photograph and an autograph. It was one of most

:16:31. > :16:35.memorable things I've ever done in my entire autograph career. Part of

:16:35. > :16:39.this remarkable collection has now been collected itself. It's into a

:16:39. > :16:49.book. Who knows, if it succeeds maybe Paul will get a taste of fame

:16:49. > :17:02.

:17:02. > :17:05.and fortune himself. The line-up has been announced for the

:17:05. > :17:15.Evolution festival. It's on 3rd and 4th June. That is going to be busy.

:17:15. > :17:21.Stephanie Lloyds reports. Evolution's returning to the north-

:17:21. > :17:27.east, bringing some of the most exciting names in music to the area.

:17:27. > :17:33.This year's main acts are local lads Maximo Park,Ariesle Kicks,

:17:33. > :17:37.noia and the whale andariesy rascal, plus many more. Thanks to the Queen,

:17:37. > :17:42.there is an extra Bank Holiday the day after, so it promises to be a

:17:42. > :17:49.real party weekend in Newcastle and Gateshead. The festival attracts

:17:49. > :17:54.nearly 30,000 people per day, with a stellar line-up of contemporary

:17:54. > :17:59.acts and DJs. Evolution by the nature and the ethos of the

:17:59. > :18:02.festival is about keeping the music going. We are just always putting

:18:02. > :18:05.on a lot of acts that we are discovering that we have great

:18:05. > :18:09.confidence are going to be big and we've done a lot of successful

:18:09. > :18:18.things like that in past, so it's a little more of that alongside

:18:18. > :18:26.bigger names. It's living up to its reputation for highlighting some of

:18:26. > :18:32.the best emerging artists in the north-east. Performers like Lulu

:18:32. > :18:42.James. It's great I'm on a local stage and it's massive. It's known

:18:42. > :18:45.

:18:45. > :18:54.all over the country. I'm dead excited. It's always popular. Do

:18:54. > :18:58.you think you'll be going? Probably not me. Maybe my daughter. The

:18:58. > :19:03.Queen's probably more my age. her in 1977. We have a little

:19:03. > :19:07.football. He was one of the more successful signings, but Barry

:19:07. > :19:13.Robson is leaving Middlesbrough in the summer. Robson, who is 33 and

:19:13. > :19:19.with 18 goals to his name, has signed a pre-contract agreement to

:19:19. > :19:24.join Vancouver White Caps. In just 48 hours, Sunderland will bid to

:19:24. > :19:29.reach their first FA Cup quarter final since 2004. Their opponents

:19:29. > :19:39.are Arsenal, who snatched an injury-time winner last weekend by

:19:39. > :19:39.

:19:39. > :19:43.Thierry Henry. He set up their best chance in a 4-0 defeat last night.

:19:43. > :19:47.His lone spell end -- loan spell ended today. Will Arsenal's

:19:47. > :19:56.confidence be shattered or will they be even more dangerous? It

:19:57. > :20:02.will be a blast from the past for Gary Gold. He used to be in charge

:20:02. > :20:06.at London Irish and although his new team are at the bottom of the

:20:06. > :20:10.Premiership, he is encouraging a bold approach and telling the

:20:10. > :20:15.players to give away fewer penalties which cost them victory

:20:15. > :20:18.against Bath. They are a class outfit. Premiership finalists a

:20:18. > :20:24.couple of years ago. European contenders. Well coached. I know

:20:24. > :20:30.them well. They'll come here with a lot to play for. They are fighting

:20:30. > :20:35.for European honours and to climb the table. There isn't going to be

:20:35. > :20:39.a game left in the rest of the Premiership that will be easy.

:20:39. > :20:49.many of our athletes just making it to London 2012 will be an

:20:49. > :20:50.

:20:50. > :21:00.achievement in its sls, but for Hexham's Matt Wells this will be

:21:00. > :21:03.

:21:03. > :21:13.more poignant and he will be retiring after this. He's been a

:21:13. > :21:17.

:21:17. > :21:21.mainstay in the rowing team for nearly 13 years. A bronze medal

:21:21. > :21:31.winner in Beijing, Hexham's Matt Wells is preparing for his fourth

:21:31. > :21:33.

:21:33. > :21:38.Olympic Games. London 2012 is even more significant for Wells as it's

:21:38. > :21:42.set to be his last outing in a GB shirt. I think my time's done. This

:21:43. > :21:49.will be my fourth. It's a long time to stay in this sport with training

:21:49. > :21:54.up to seven hours a day every day. We'll have a day off one day in

:21:54. > :22:00.three weeks. It's quite an intense, gruelling training regime and a lot

:22:00. > :22:04.of the time you are just walking around really, really tired. To

:22:04. > :22:07.keep that going is something that is very difficult and I think if I

:22:07. > :22:17.looked at myself and said could I do another four years I physically

:22:17. > :22:19.

:22:19. > :22:23.could. Mentally, I don't know. dream is to retire in 2012 with a

:22:23. > :22:27.gold medal around his neck and then return to where it all started in

:22:27. > :22:32.Hexham on the River Tyne when he was just 13. He comes into school

:22:32. > :22:37.when he's up and he's been into school and talked to the kids and

:22:37. > :22:45.obviously the ones in the rowing club know of him and know what he's

:22:45. > :22:54.done. He is an inspiration to them that it is achievable from a boy

:22:54. > :23:01.from the north. There are some big plans to celebrate Matt's career

:23:01. > :23:06.ones the Games are over. That's what Matthew was really keen to do,

:23:06. > :23:12.to come full circle and the way we are hoping to do that is by having

:23:12. > :23:17.a special regatta, to have some exciting sprint racing and to bring

:23:17. > :23:20.eight Olympic rowers here to row against each other and bring a

:23:20. > :23:25.taste, a tiny taste, of what has been going on in the Olympics to

:23:25. > :23:29.people in Hexham. People there put a lot of time into me and if I

:23:29. > :23:32.hadn't - if it hadn't have been for them I wouldn't have had the

:23:32. > :23:42.opportunities so I feel it's really important for me to go back and

:23:42. > :23:54.

:23:54. > :23:58.I would like to bring some sort of Olympic spirit up to Hexham and in

:23:58. > :24:03.doing that give everyone the opportunity to meet some Olympic

:24:03. > :24:07.medallists and guys who are competing and see what we do. It

:24:07. > :24:10.will be really emotional to finish the same place I started on the

:24:10. > :24:17.little bit of the river. There will be plenty of people back home

:24:17. > :24:21.hoping he can finish his career hoping he can finish his career

:24:22. > :24:25.with a flourish. You do a bit? know. Indoors on a machine. Nothing

:24:25. > :24:30.like that. I could get outside and try it one day. It's mild at the

:24:30. > :24:33.moment, but I won't try it yet. would hold your horses, because

:24:33. > :24:37.things will change weather-wise as we head to the weekend. It will get

:24:37. > :24:41.cooler and also going to bring rain our way, so I thought before we

:24:41. > :24:47.head into the wet weather we'll recap on some of the brightest

:24:47. > :24:53.spells just recently. Bob Turner was here. Calm reflections there. A

:24:53. > :24:56.bit of blue sky and by the time Mark was out looking over, the

:24:56. > :25:00.clouds were gathering. We'll have rain over the next couple of days.

:25:00. > :25:05.It's going to be wet at first as we head to the weekend and then it's

:25:05. > :25:09.going to turn a lot colder. Let's see how it all fits together. This

:25:09. > :25:15.is the scene today. Through the whole week we have been in the mild

:25:15. > :25:18.air. Today's high 11 once again. As we head into the weekend through

:25:18. > :25:22.Friday, that front starts to move across and eventually as we come

:25:22. > :25:26.into Saturday, this cold front will plunge down across us, bringing

:25:26. > :25:31.some rain and then in the wake of that rain, as it clears, the plunge

:25:31. > :25:36.of cold air coming down across us, so much cooler. Brighter, but

:25:36. > :25:40.chilly. By the time sunned comes, highs of just 4. A frosty night

:25:40. > :25:45.ahead on Saturday too. Not such problems tonight. Frost free around

:25:45. > :25:51.the region. Mostly dry. Just one or two little outbreaks of rain around

:25:51. > :26:00.southern and western Cumbria. Clear spells overhead, but enough cloud

:26:00. > :26:03.to keep the temperatures above zero. It's not going to be a chilly start.

:26:03. > :26:09.Through Friday, we'll squeeze in one or two little bright spelds,

:26:09. > :26:13.but I think it won't be long -- spells, but I think it won't be

:26:13. > :26:17.long before the rain moves into Cumbria and it will start to push

:26:17. > :26:20.up and over the Pennines and head east. It will be more light and

:26:20. > :26:26.patchy on the east of the hills. The breeze tomorrow, that will help

:26:26. > :26:30.that rain up and over the hills. Coming from the south-west, so it

:26:30. > :26:34.continues to feed in the mild air and temperatures looking resilient.

:26:34. > :26:38.Between eight on the coast and maybe nine or ten, still in double

:26:38. > :26:43.figures in February, on the north- eastern side. It's all looking good

:26:43. > :26:47.as far as the end of the week. It's into the weekend we start to get

:26:47. > :26:52.the change. You can see how temperatures fall towards Saturday

:26:52. > :26:56.and sunned. Saturday is an interesting one for Cumbria. They

:26:56. > :27:02.could turn a little sleety and snowy on the tops of the hills on

:27:02. > :27:05.Saturday night. A frosty night. For the north-east, a similar pattern

:27:05. > :27:11.of decline and a chilly night to watch out for on Saturday. Thank

:27:11. > :27:15.you very much. A last look at the headlines - the Prime Minister says

:27:15. > :27:21.he would consider devolving more power to Scotland so long as there

:27:21. > :27:27.is a no vote in a future independence referendum. It's the

:27:27. > :27:30.day 120 years of history ended as the name St James's park was
