Welcome to Monday's Look North. More families come forward to | :00:09. | :00:15. | |
complain about standards of care at a County Durham hospital. You feel | :00:15. | :00:22. | |
guilty because you are leaving them and leaving them to look after | :00:22. | :00:27. | |
people that I care about. And they treat them like that. Five people I | :00:27. | :00:31. | |
treated in hospital after taking contaminated drugs. | :00:31. | :00:36. | |
Bad sign, councillors plan to scrap the number 13 thanks to | :00:36. | :00:41. | |
superstitious house buyers. And life after football, Steve Howe | :00:41. | :00:44. | |
speaks candidly about his struggle to deal with retirement. | :00:44. | :00:49. | |
He is from Sunderland but played for Newcastle, so he will have been | :00:49. | :00:55. | |
glued to yesterday's Tyne and Wear derby. Olympic delight as two of | :00:55. | :01:05. | |
:01:05. | :01:11. | ||
our swimmers qualify for this Three weeks ago, the BBC reported | :01:11. | :01:16. | |
on concerns over basic standards of care at the County Durham hospital. | :01:16. | :01:21. | |
The University Hospital of North Durham was at the centre of an | :01:21. | :01:26. | |
investigation after complaints from patients' relatives. Dozens more | :01:26. | :01:29. | |
people have come forward to complain about what they say were | :01:29. | :01:33. | |
poor care standards at the same hospital. Last week at commission | :01:33. | :01:37. | |
called for changes in the wake older people are treated in | :01:37. | :01:42. | |
hospitals and in care homes. The BBC Inside Out investigation | :01:42. | :01:45. | |
centred around elderly former patients in the University Hospital | :01:45. | :01:49. | |
of North Durham. Patients and their families complained about basing | :01:49. | :01:55. | |
care, feeding and washing. Since their concerns were aired, many | :01:55. | :01:59. | |
more have contacted the BBC. Patients were sitting waiting for a | :01:59. | :02:04. | |
whole load of stuff to happen. Medicines, bedpans and all this | :02:04. | :02:10. | |
sort of thing. George wrote to the hospital several times, so when he | :02:10. | :02:14. | |
saw the investigation he felt they had not been listening. Nothing has | :02:14. | :02:19. | |
changed. The point is nobody has learnt a Darnah thing from all the | :02:19. | :02:24. | |
letters I wrote, all the complaints I now understand they are getting, | :02:24. | :02:29. | |
and the process is getting worse. David Hamilton was admitted to the | :02:29. | :02:33. | |
University Hospital in November. His teeth were not brash, his face | :02:33. | :02:38. | |
was not was, he did not go to the toilet in six days and they are | :02:38. | :02:43. | |
basic needs. You feel guilty because you are leaving these | :02:43. | :02:48. | |
people, you I leaving these people to look after people I care about | :02:48. | :02:54. | |
and they are treating them like that. Other families with a recent | :02:54. | :02:58. | |
experience also got in touch. This is an e-mail, a diary said to the | :02:59. | :03:02. | |
hospital by a nurse who says her father was denied a dignified death | :03:02. | :03:08. | |
earlier this year. This is bomb an elderly patient discharged 10 days | :03:08. | :03:14. | |
ago. She said she saw an old lady, 80 years old, ringing her buzzer | :03:14. | :03:18. | |
for 10 minutes, she was desperate for the toilet. When the nurse | :03:18. | :03:23. | |
finally arrived, she had wept herself. An inspection by the Care | :03:23. | :03:28. | |
Quality Commission last August reported a hospital was not | :03:28. | :03:32. | |
compliant in nutrition and dignity. But inspectors have returned | :03:32. | :03:36. | |
recently and found it to be fully compliant. County Durham and | :03:36. | :03:42. | |
Darlington NHS Foundation Trust declined our offer of an interview, | :03:42. | :03:52. | |
:03:52. | :04:02. | ||
They are encouraging anyone who is unhappy about their treatment to | :04:02. | :04:09. | |
contact the trust. You can see more on that on Inside | :04:09. | :04:15. | |
Out tonight at 7:30pm. It also contains a report on the unusual | :04:15. | :04:19. | |
lengths been taken to avoid paying business rates on one of the | :04:19. | :04:23. | |
queen's properties in Harrogate. Five people have been treated in | :04:23. | :04:28. | |
hospital in Teesside suffering from the effects of contaminated drugs. | :04:28. | :04:34. | |
Four men and a woman had been taken to North Tees Hospital. | :04:34. | :04:38. | |
Delors makes drugs like heroin with cement, baking soda and talc, | :04:38. | :04:44. | |
anything to bulk them out. Greater quantities mean greater profits. | :04:44. | :04:48. | |
Now, five people in Stockton have been treated in hospital after | :04:48. | :04:53. | |
taking the drug methadrone. It is believed the drugs were | :04:53. | :04:59. | |
contaminated. We have got a lot of us cheap drugs on the street, | :04:59. | :05:05. | |
coming from abroad, bought off the Internet. One person who uses drugs | :05:05. | :05:09. | |
said to me, it is a ticking time bomb, you do not know what you are | :05:09. | :05:14. | |
taking, but you take it. This evening, two men remain in hospital | :05:14. | :05:18. | |
while tests are taking place to find that what substances were | :05:18. | :05:23. | |
mixed with the drugs. These are being sold illegally, so there is | :05:23. | :05:28. | |
no control over those drugs, so you do not know the short-term and | :05:28. | :05:32. | |
long-term effects. Three people have been arrested and are now | :05:33. | :05:38. | |
being questioned on suspicion of supplying controlled drugs. People | :05:38. | :05:41. | |
love taken methadrone and are feeling unwell have been told to go | :05:41. | :05:49. | |
to hospital as soon as possible. Stewart joins us now from our BBC | :05:49. | :05:55. | |
Tees newsroom. What is the latest? This evening the man leading the | :05:55. | :05:59. | |
investigation said the priority was to get the contaminated drugs off | :05:59. | :06:03. | |
the street. They have already sees a small batch of methadrone which | :06:03. | :06:08. | |
has been sent away for testing. A number of searches have taken place | :06:08. | :06:13. | |
today in Stockton and more are expected over the next 24 hours. | :06:13. | :06:17. | |
But since last night there have been no new reports of people | :06:17. | :06:20. | |
feeling the ill-effects after taking these drugs and they hope | :06:20. | :06:30. | |
:06:30. | :06:31. | ||
the problem has been contained to these five people. A cricket coach | :06:31. | :06:35. | |
has been jailed for six years at Newcastle Crown Court for abusing | :06:35. | :06:39. | |
youngsters in his charge. Michael Strange was a scout for Durham | :06:39. | :06:43. | |
County Cricket Club and a coach at Bill Quay Cricket Club in Gateshead. | :06:43. | :06:49. | |
He was convicted of seven charges of indecent assault. A baby girl | :06:49. | :06:53. | |
from County Durham has died a month after she made medical history by | :06:53. | :06:58. | |
becoming the youngest patient to undergo heart surgery. Jasmine Carr | :06:58. | :07:02. | |
from Newton Aycliffe was just hours old when the doctors carried out | :07:02. | :07:09. | |
open-heart surgery. Her funeral will take place tomorrow. | :07:09. | :07:13. | |
controversial head teacher of a flagship High School has quit after | :07:13. | :07:17. | |
the half-term holiday. Dr Paul Cairney was a pioneer at Monkseaton | :07:17. | :07:23. | |
High School in Tyneside. He resigned after 17 years in the post, | :07:23. | :07:29. | |
but it is not clear why he left. It is a futuristic school with | :07:29. | :07:33. | |
futuristic teaching methods, pioneered by the American head | :07:33. | :07:38. | |
teacher Dr Paul Cairney. Innovations included learning where | :07:38. | :07:42. | |
students alternate tuition and activities like basketball. Then | :07:42. | :07:47. | |
there was the 10 o'clock start soap teenage pupils could have a lie-in | :07:47. | :07:52. | |
and optimise their learning later in the day. This is much more | :07:52. | :07:57. | |
positive in the sense that some of the worst features of teenagers may | :07:57. | :08:00. | |
begin to be mitigated through managing things around their body | :08:01. | :08:06. | |
clock and not hours. Dr Kelly was courted by politicians of all | :08:06. | :08:10. | |
persuasions. Under Labour Monkseaton High became the first | :08:10. | :08:14. | |
trust school in England with Microsoft as its partner. It was | :08:14. | :08:18. | |
one of the last to be built before Labour lost power. | :08:18. | :08:23. | |
It opened in September 2009, but the first exam results were not | :08:23. | :08:30. | |
promising. Only a third of pupils got good GCSEs in 2010. Results | :08:30. | :08:36. | |
improved dramatically last year and now in February 2012, Dr Kelley has | :08:36. | :08:40. | |
gone. The council issued a statement and said they are now | :08:40. | :08:44. | |
seeking a successor to Dr Kelley and in the interim the executive | :08:44. | :08:48. | |
head teacher from Whitley Bay High School is overseeing Monkseaton | :08:48. | :08:58. | |
:08:58. | :09:00. | ||
High School. 2300 pupils in total. Now, some think of black cabs are | :09:00. | :09:04. | |
lucky, others refused to walk under a ladder, but now one of the | :09:04. | :09:08. | |
region's councils looks set to act against superstition by scrapping | :09:08. | :09:16. | |
the number 13 for all new housing developments. | :09:16. | :09:21. | |
If the credit crisis does not thwart your house sale, maybe | :09:21. | :09:27. | |
superstition well. A few, it seems, will hesitate on a dream home if it | :09:27. | :09:33. | |
is at an lucky number 13. November last year the survey came | :09:33. | :09:39. | |
out that number 13 was �6,500 less than number 14. We do not see that | :09:39. | :09:43. | |
locally. If somebody likes a property, they will buy that | :09:44. | :09:48. | |
property, irrespective of the number. They can apply to a local | :09:48. | :09:54. | |
authority to change the number. in County Durham the figure is set | :09:54. | :09:58. | |
to vanish from new buildings. On Wednesday a Street naming and | :09:58. | :10:03. | |
numbering policy goes before councillors. If we are | :10:03. | :10:08. | |
superstitious, few of us admit it. I do not think number 13 would put | :10:08. | :10:16. | |
me off. I would buy a house as long as I wanted a house. What is wrong | :10:16. | :10:21. | |
with number 13. People who are superstitious with think something | :10:21. | :10:27. | |
is wrong with it, but it would not bother me. Many councils got rid of | :10:27. | :10:33. | |
number 13 many years ago. Do not walk under a ladder, do not put a | :10:33. | :10:38. | |
black umbrella up when the sun is shining. What is the worst that can | :10:38. | :10:44. | |
happen? I am not going to be hit by a meteor, am I? | :10:44. | :10:51. | |
He was never seen again. Plenty more to come tonight: We are live | :10:51. | :10:54. | |
with the Women's Institute group which took on the might of a power | :10:54. | :10:57. | |
company and one. And meet the professionals who | :10:57. | :11:02. | |
drink beer for a living. We are in for another frosty nights | :11:02. | :11:10. | |
and join me later for the full details for the next few days. | :11:10. | :11:14. | |
Today is a double cause for celebration for one of the oldest | :11:14. | :11:18. | |
women's institutes in the country. The head and on the wall branch is | :11:18. | :11:24. | |
not only toasting its 95th anniversary, it is also raising a | :11:24. | :11:28. | |
glass to mark victory over Npower in the battle over a huge | :11:28. | :11:38. | |
:11:38. | :11:38. | ||
electricity bill. Look at all these smiling faces. It | :11:38. | :11:42. | |
was a very different story three weeks ago. The last time I was here | :11:43. | :11:50. | |
it was all doom and gloom. The ladies basic fleet did not know if | :11:50. | :11:54. | |
they would serve five. They had been landed with a �5,000 energy | :11:54. | :11:58. | |
bill and they did not know if they could pay it, but there have been | :11:58. | :12:03. | |
developments. Last week we had a phone call from Npower saying they | :12:03. | :12:08. | |
had cancelled the whole bill and we were absolutely delighted. But not | :12:08. | :12:14. | |
only that, they cancelled the last bill we paid to them for our last | :12:14. | :12:20. | |
quarter's electricity and we are absolutely delighted. If it is | :12:20. | :12:26. | |
celebrations... All around. They think is it was always a David and | :12:26. | :12:34. | |
Goliath battle, wasn't it? Yes. What kind of a mad person takes on | :12:34. | :12:39. | |
the WI? A very foolish person. We are a strong force to be reckoned | :12:39. | :12:43. | |
with and we do not like to see injustice and we felt we had to | :12:43. | :12:48. | |
fight for this and we did. You were always going to make a stand and | :12:48. | :12:53. | |
you were never going to back down? No, we had a tremendous amount of | :12:53. | :12:59. | |
support behind us from everybody, the locals, the press and the media, | :12:59. | :13:04. | |
so we had that support and we were not going to back down. These | :13:04. | :13:09. | |
ladies definitely know how To Make A Stand and they also know how to | :13:09. | :13:13. | |
make a rather nice spread, as you can see it. Congratulations come a | :13:13. | :13:19. | |
ladies, happy anniversary, and here is still another 95 years. I think | :13:19. | :13:25. | |
this party is going to go on Fashion model, pop star. Some would | :13:25. | :13:29. | |
consider them to be dream jobs. But what about this select group of | :13:29. | :13:31. | |
workers in North Yorkshire? If their posts were ever advertised, | :13:31. | :13:34. | |
then surely, applications would run into the hundreds. They drink beer | :13:34. | :13:44. | |
:13:44. | :13:44. | ||
for a living. Peter Lugg has been looking for a vacancy. | :13:44. | :13:47. | |
We all know the feeling, the start of another early shift at work. | :13:47. | :13:50. | |
Reluctantly, we join our fellow band of stragglers as they wend | :13:50. | :13:57. | |
their way along chilly streets and through the factory door. So | :13:57. | :14:01. | |
dedicated is this group of workers that holidays are rarely taken bus- | :14:01. | :14:11. | |
:14:11. | :14:12. | ||
stop sickness is unheard of. Have I missed something? Mystery solved. | :14:12. | :14:15. | |
But don't be too hard on this lot. They're actually working | :14:15. | :14:23. | |
conscientiously at what they're paid to do. Beer tasting it is a | :14:23. | :14:31. | |
serious business. We are all fully qualified and trained up. In a | :14:31. | :14:37. | |
tough week, how many pints the have to drink? Like the wine industry, | :14:37. | :14:41. | |
you do not have to drink it. Upstairs in the brewery, less | :14:41. | :14:44. | |
fortunate members of staff are hard at work producing the beers Black | :14:44. | :14:47. | |
Sheep has become famous for. It's 20 years since Paul Theakston broke | :14:47. | :14:50. | |
away from the family firm to set up his own business. It can't have | :14:50. | :14:54. | |
been a bad decision. Production is now running at 20 million pints a | :14:54. | :15:04. | |
:15:04. | :15:04. | ||
year and Black Sheep are one of the largest employers in the Dales. | :15:04. | :15:10. | |
Initially, we were in Scottish and Newcastle's hands. That evolved and | :15:10. | :15:13. | |
now that Simon and his part of the family have got back control of the | :15:13. | :15:19. | |
business again, that is great for us because we have a real focus now | :15:19. | :15:24. | |
with the brewing capital of the North. | :15:24. | :15:27. | |
Both and you brew is being launched by Christopher Timothy and part of | :15:27. | :15:34. | |
the sale price will support a local hospice. And you can count on it | :15:34. | :15:38. | |
that the flavour of every pint will have been thoroughly tested. | :15:38. | :15:41. | |
He was the boy from Sunderland who became a Newcastle United hero. | :15:41. | :15:45. | |
Steve Howey was a black and white for 11 years and retired from the | :15:45. | :15:48. | |
game in 2005. Now, Steve has been talking candidly to Late Kick Off | :15:48. | :15:52. | |
about his long struggle to come to terms with life after football. And, | :15:52. | :15:55. | |
as Katie Gornall reports, he believes that, following the death | :15:55. | :15:58. | |
of Gary Speed, it's time for the game to address one of its biggest | :15:58. | :16:08. | |
:16:08. | :16:09. | ||
taboos - mental health. He was the defensive rock for Kevin | :16:09. | :16:13. | |
Keegan's team. An England international who later played for | :16:13. | :16:18. | |
Manchester City and Bolton before retiring at the age of 33. It is a | :16:18. | :16:22. | |
huge shock coming into football and you do not realise how much you | :16:22. | :16:25. | |
miss it. You sometimes wake up because you have nothing to do and | :16:25. | :16:30. | |
you wonder what the point is in getting out of bed. There was a | :16:30. | :16:35. | |
point where I was really a law and could not find a way out. You're in | :16:35. | :16:39. | |
the sport and looking at yourself and you just think, this is going | :16:39. | :16:45. | |
to go one of two ways here. You're looking at had are talking to | :16:45. | :16:49. | |
somebody and getting some help or there is the other route. We all | :16:49. | :16:57. | |
know what that is. Steve's life is back on track. I have children I | :16:57. | :17:02. | |
absolutely adore her and for me, it was all about them. Also, my | :17:02. | :17:07. | |
parents as well. Did not want them to suffer any more. Now, personally | :17:07. | :17:13. | |
and professionally, everything is going really well. I have a great | :17:13. | :17:16. | |
job and a great personal life and things are going from strength to | :17:16. | :17:21. | |
strength. He is speaking now about his past Troubles because after the | :17:21. | :17:25. | |
death of Gary Speed, he wants to address the stick back around | :17:25. | :17:30. | |
mental health than the game. It is a really serious illness and I | :17:30. | :17:34. | |
think it needs to be addressed. We need to have some sort of action | :17:34. | :17:38. | |
plan where we have something for players in football as well as out | :17:38. | :17:45. | |
of football. Fascinating. And you can see more | :17:45. | :17:48. | |
of that interview with Steve Howey on Late Kick Off on BBC 1 tonight | :17:48. | :17:57. | |
Time for Team Talk and a fairly fiesty Tyne-Wear derby. All the | :17:57. | :18:00. | |
goalmouth action in a moment but there was plenty more going on, all | :18:00. | :18:03. | |
over the pitch, Dawn? Newcastle won the yellow card count, 5-4, but the | :18:03. | :18:06. | |
two reds went to Sunderland, who've now had four players sent off in | :18:07. | :18:12. | |
the last three derbies between the two. It was a bit tasty and you | :18:12. | :18:16. | |
sensed it would be as more than 52,000 fans from both sides of the | :18:16. | :18:19. | |
derby divide converged on the stadium. It kicked off, so to speak, | :18:19. | :18:29. | |
:18:29. | :18:32. | ||
right after kick-off. In fact, it took less than 40 seconds. The foul | :18:32. | :18:39. | |
here set the tone for the whole game. 97 minutes later, asked great | :18:39. | :18:49. | |
:18:49. | :18:49. | ||
read. Possibly the longest gap between cards in any game. A three- | :18:49. | :18:54. | |
match ban for that backhander. He made a bit of a backhander of it | :18:54. | :18:58. | |
but there was stuff going on all over the pitch. Both sides steaming | :18:58. | :19:03. | |
in there and the referee it, I think, had a pretty decent game of | :19:03. | :19:08. | |
a all. This, of course. The managers | :19:08. | :19:12. | |
getting involved as well. Alan Pardew admitted it was not his | :19:12. | :19:17. | |
finest hour. I have not covered myself and glory | :19:17. | :19:22. | |
but I felt a little bit of injustice. I was really angry that | :19:22. | :19:28. | |
so many physical challenges were going and which were unnecessary. I | :19:28. | :19:31. | |
was a little bit disappointed with our first half because they got | :19:31. | :19:37. | |
wrapped up in the attempt to unsettle her game planned. I | :19:37. | :19:46. | |
thought it was ugly. The played splendidly forests. It was rather | :19:46. | :19:49. | |
foolish and I think he should leave that for me if there is going to be | :19:49. | :19:54. | |
a word to the referee. You could say mitigating circumstances but I | :19:54. | :19:56. | |
think Newcastle were very lucky themselves to finish with 11 | :19:56. | :19:59. | |
players. Contrasting views there, as you | :19:59. | :20:01. | |
might expect, from the two managers. And Newcastle had their goalkeeping | :20:01. | :20:04. | |
coach, Andy Woodman, sent to the stands at half-time. But there was | :20:04. | :20:14. | |
:20:14. | :20:17. | ||
some football played, as well! This type of thing you see every week. | :20:17. | :20:21. | |
It was spotted by the referee and are still a penalty. It does not | :20:21. | :20:25. | |
often get spotted. Not his finest moment Penna Sunderland shirt, | :20:26. | :20:35. | |
because Denner. Newcastle had a chance before half-time and it | :20:35. | :20:41. | |
looked like they were not going to get back into it. A fabulous double | :20:41. | :20:47. | |
save and if it had gone in, it would have been game over. An | :20:47. | :20:52. | |
attacker's tackle there. Newcastle got the penalty and mist and a | :20:52. | :21:02. | |
:21:02. | :21:08. | ||
similar style. In typical derby fashion,. Shower is now the top | :21:08. | :21:11. | |
scorer for Newcastle and the derbies and has scored more than | :21:11. | :21:18. | |
any other player that than Jacqui Milburn. Even though I did not feel | :21:18. | :21:24. | |
great, I wanted to be involved and be part of the experience. It is | :21:24. | :21:31. | |
fantastic to be able to score a number of goals against our rivals. | :21:31. | :21:36. | |
He would never have missed that penalty. He is a diamond it in | :21:36. | :21:41. | |
terms of penalties against Sunderland. Unlucky today. I was | :21:41. | :21:48. | |
really disappointed when they got the equaliser. I feel like there | :21:48. | :21:52. | |
are a lot of positives to be taken. You can always say if we kept | :21:52. | :21:56. | |
people on the pitch, we would have had a good win today. | :21:56. | :21:58. | |
Middlesbrough are back in the Championship playoffs after beating | :21:58. | :22:01. | |
troubled Portsmouth at Fratton Park. There was always a concern that | :22:01. | :22:04. | |
with feelings running high in the stadium as Pompey fans tried to | :22:04. | :22:07. | |
raise money for their club it would get the better of Boro, and | :22:07. | :22:10. | |
although it took until the second half to break the deadlock Tony | :22:10. | :22:13. | |
Mowbray needn't have worried as a Barry Robson penalty put the | :22:13. | :22:16. | |
Teessiders ahead. Captain Matthew Bates got on the end of Robson's | :22:16. | :22:19. | |
free kick to double Boro's lead before Pompey pulled one back with | :22:19. | :22:22. | |
a penalty of their own after Lucas Jutkievicz was judged to have | :22:22. | :22:25. | |
handled the ball. Adam Hammill looked dangerous on his debut but | :22:25. | :22:28. | |
it was substitute Marvin Emnes who finally put the ball in the net to | :22:28. | :22:32. | |
make it three. The win takes Boro up to fifth but on the downside | :22:32. | :22:35. | |
they'll be without Rhys Williams who was sent off after a second | :22:35. | :22:45. | |
:22:45. | :22:47. | ||
yellow card. A fairly soft one. Hartlepool have been one of League | :22:47. | :22:51. | |
One's form sides lately and are now ninth in the table, just one place | :22:51. | :22:54. | |
behind Carlisle although the Cumbrians have two games in hand. A | :22:54. | :22:57. | |
successful return to the Pools side for James Poole who's been out | :22:57. | :22:59. | |
injured for two months. With Newcastle's Alan Smith in the squad | :22:59. | :23:02. | |
until the end of the season promotion chasing MK Dons came back | :23:02. | :23:06. | |
into it to grab a point when Jay O'Shea nodded in the equaliser. | :23:06. | :23:09. | |
Carlisle's playoff hopes took a knock against Notts County who won | :23:09. | :23:11. | |
their fourth successive game under new manager Keith Curle. Alan | :23:11. | :23:14. | |
Sheehan's impressive free-kick ensured they move into the play-off | :23:14. | :23:21. | |
places instead. And in the semi-finals of the FA | :23:21. | :23:24. | |
Vase, West Auckland will face Herne Bay away on 24th March with the | :23:24. | :23:27. | |
home leg the following weekend. While Dunston are home and then | :23:27. | :23:36. | |
away to Stavely. Hopefully we'll see them both at Wembley. | :23:36. | :23:39. | |
Well, it wasn't just football where the cards were being brandished | :23:39. | :23:42. | |
this weekend. There were a couple of yellow cards in the Falcons | :23:42. | :23:45. | |
Premiership rugby clash with top of the table Quins. But Newcastle gave | :23:45. | :23:48. | |
it everything and if fight alone could save their top flight status | :23:48. | :23:50. | |
there'd be no problem. Sometimes when you're scrapping for your life | :23:50. | :23:54. | |
it boils over into indiscipline. The golden boot of Jimmy Gopperth | :23:54. | :23:57. | |
gave Newcastle a lead which they hung onto until the last minute | :23:57. | :24:00. | |
when they gave away a penalty that Quins converted to grab a draw - | :24:00. | :24:07. | |
absolutely gutting! But it's like watching a different team under | :24:07. | :24:09. | |
Gary Gold - amazing transformation, perhaps pushing the boundaries a | :24:09. | :24:15. | |
bit. Before Gold and his team came in the Falcons had six yellow cards | :24:15. | :24:19. | |
in 20 games. Since then they've had eight yellows and one red in just | :24:19. | :24:22. | |
seven games. Sadly a win for Wasps means Falcons are still eight | :24:22. | :24:27. | |
points adrift at the bottom. Finally, congratulations to our | :24:27. | :24:29. | |
swimmers Jo Jackson and Aimee Wilmott who've qualified for the | :24:29. | :24:34. | |
Olympics. Jo from Northallerton has been plagued by illness and injury, | :24:34. | :24:37. | |
but followed home her GB team-mate, Rebecca Adlington, in the final of | :24:37. | :24:40. | |
the women's 400m freestyle, at the Olympic trials in Londons Aquatic | :24:40. | :24:47. | |
Centre last night. And Middlesbrough teenager Aimee | :24:47. | :24:49. | |
Willmott finished second in the 400 metres individual medley in a | :24:50. | :24:53. | |
personal best time. She'll compete at the Olympics 28 years after her | :24:53. | :25:03. | |
dad Stuart flew the flag for Britain in Los Angeles. It has not | :25:03. | :25:07. | |
hit me properly yet. I know I have done it but I cannot wait to tell | :25:07. | :25:17. | |
:25:17. | :25:24. | ||
my friends. Brings a tear to your Maybe not as volatile as a certain | :25:24. | :25:29. | |
derby match but an interesting start. Here are a selection of | :25:29. | :25:33. | |
pictures from the last few days. Showers turned to snow in places | :25:33. | :25:39. | |
and have started settling on their Yorkshire moors. Showery weather | :25:39. | :25:42. | |
means great rainbow weather and not always easy to capture a picture of | :25:42. | :25:52. | |

one. This morning, an extra surprise for Paul who got some | :25:54. | :26:00. | |
missed an some frost throne and. It will be a cold and frosty one for | :26:00. | :26:05. | |
most of us tonight and some mist patches forming as well. Today, | :26:05. | :26:09. | |
more unsettled weather for the weekend clearing the way to leave | :26:09. | :26:14. | |
as some clear skies with most place is getting plenty of sunshine. A | :26:14. | :26:17. | |
little on the chilly side and as we head through the evening, any | :26:18. | :26:22. | |
clouds tend to disappear with mostly clear skies through the | :26:22. | :26:26. | |
night and widespread frost. On the east coast, you might escape the | :26:26. | :26:30. | |
frost with more of a northerly breeze. Most places will see | :26:30. | :26:39. | |
temperatures at Sub Zero. I am sure a few outlying areas will be | :26:39. | :26:43. | |
slightly colder than that. When Black are very light so watch out | :26:44. | :26:47. | |
for some mist patches tomorrow morning which should lift and then | :26:47. | :26:52. | |
a fine and dry and sunny morning. Still some good spells of sunshine | :26:52. | :26:56. | |
through the afternoon particularly in the east. Cloud will come in | :26:56. | :27:00. | |
from the West and by teatime, that thicker cloud may produce some rain | :27:00. | :27:04. | |
on the Cumbrian coast. Temperatures like to date peak at around 10 | :27:04. | :27:09. | |
Celsius. That southerly wind will start to pick up as the thicker | :27:09. | :27:13. | |
cloud approaches later in the day. This is what is bringing the | :27:13. | :27:19. | |
thicker cloud and rain and from the West. Into Wednesday, that clears | :27:19. | :27:22. | |
away eastwards leading as a showery picture for the rest of the day as | :27:22. | :27:28. |
