:00:09. > :00:15.Hello. Welcome to the programme. Tonight, jobs boost for the North-
:00:15. > :00:18.East as Nissan prepares to build another car model in Wearside.
:00:18. > :00:23.news that Nissan is building another hatchback at Sunderland is
:00:23. > :00:31.going to create thousands of jobs in this country. Remembering
:00:31. > :00:34.Caroline Stuttle Row, the backpacker murder - to area 10
:00:34. > :00:37.years ago. She was a very special young lady and she did a lot of
:00:37. > :00:42.good in a short life. We want people to remember what sort of
:00:42. > :00:50.person she was and not think about the tragic way she died. Has the
:00:50. > :00:57.Royal Mail missed the boat with his new first class stamp? And can you
:00:57. > :01:04.write new words for a old song? The challenge to bring the Blaydon
:01:04. > :01:14.races up to date. And a wonder goal from this man edges the Magpies
:01:14. > :01:19.
:01:19. > :01:23.closer to the impossible dream of First tonight, another new model is
:01:23. > :01:27.to be built at the Nissan car plant in Sunderland. It could lead to
:01:27. > :01:33.more than 200 new jobs at the factory and a further 900 in the
:01:33. > :01:36.supply chain over the next two years. Nissan is investing �127
:01:36. > :01:40.million in the project, and by 2014, more than 6,000 people will be
:01:40. > :01:43.employed at the plant. The Nissan story began, here in the North,
:01:43. > :01:47.back in 1986, when Phase 1 of the company's Wearside plant was
:01:47. > :01:52.completed, and the first Bluebird produced. In 1998, Nissan became
:01:52. > :01:56.the UK's biggest car maker. In 2008, night shifts were introduced to
:01:56. > :02:01.meet demand for the Qashqai - the first Nissan UK car to be exported
:02:01. > :02:06.to Japan. The following year, 1,200 redundancies were announced as the
:02:06. > :02:10.recession hit car sales. But, in 2010, production of Nissan's new
:02:10. > :02:13.electric car, the Leaf, was announced. And, just last month,
:02:13. > :02:18.the company revealed plans for a new compact car to go into
:02:19. > :02:24.production from 2013. Well, Gerry Jackson is live for us at the
:02:24. > :02:30.Nissan plant tonight. Gerry, this is big news for Wearside, isn't it?
:02:30. > :02:34.It just keeps on coming. As thousands of people are looking for
:02:34. > :02:40.jobs here in the north-east and, Ayr, this could not have come at a
:02:40. > :02:45.better time and in two years' time they will be making a revamped
:02:45. > :02:50.Nisha and -- Nissan Qashqai, the Nissan Juke, the Nissan Invitation
:02:50. > :02:54.and a new hatchback, as yet unnamed. It is going to be a direct
:02:54. > :02:58.competitor for the likes of the Ford Focus and Vauxhall Astra. That
:02:58. > :03:06.will be a tough market but you will not find anyone at Nissan who is
:03:06. > :03:09.worried about that. Where did it all go right? For a generation, one
:03:09. > :03:13.of the biggest modern UK manufacturing success stories.
:03:13. > :03:16.Nearly half a million cars are expected to be made here this year
:03:16. > :03:21.- a record output for the plant - and for Britain. The next two years
:03:21. > :03:27.will see those records broken again. It is a big vote of confidence from
:03:27. > :03:30.the parent company. We have a record of delivering difficult
:03:30. > :03:38.programmes and the have four cars launching in the next two years, so
:03:38. > :03:41.it is testament to what the staff are able to do. With this new model
:03:41. > :03:45.added to the all-electric Leaf and the new Invitation model next year,
:03:45. > :03:47.the plant's workforce will stand at more than 6,200 - another UK record.
:03:47. > :03:51.A pity is good for the region because I am getting made redundant,
:03:51. > :03:59.so I am going to apply for a job, as well. The more money, more jobs
:03:59. > :04:04.to bring into the shopping centre, and to the town. It is great news,
:04:04. > :04:11.it is keeping Sunderland alive. More cars, more future money, more
:04:12. > :04:15.jobs for everybody. It just shows how the reinvention of the
:04:15. > :04:18.economies since the demise of heavy industry has helped Sunderland
:04:18. > :04:28.weather the storm and bring us out of recession quicker than in the
:04:28. > :04:29.past. So you have to ask, can it last? A little over three years ago
:04:29. > :04:32.things were very different. Redundancies, production line
:04:32. > :04:38.shutdowns. Thousands of jobs here and in the supply chain looked at
:04:38. > :04:42.risk. So what's changed? Since then we have had a 25% depreciation in
:04:42. > :04:47.pounds sterling so it is more competitive to make cars in the UK
:04:47. > :04:52.and 80% of the cars made in the UK are exported. My big concern about
:04:52. > :04:55.the state of the car industry as that at some point in the future we
:04:55. > :05:03.will have another downturn and other companies -- other countries
:05:03. > :05:05.do more to support their manufacturing base. For now of
:05:05. > :05:09.course, it's the brightest star in the region's manufacturing sector
:05:09. > :05:12.and as long as the good times roll so will these production lines, 24
:05:12. > :05:18.hours a day. As it happens there are no cars being made you write
:05:18. > :05:20.down because it is the Easter holiday shutdown, but in an --
:05:20. > :05:26.announcement like this are very carefully timed, in this case, to
:05:26. > :05:31.coincide with David Cameron's visit to Japan, to drum up trade with
:05:31. > :05:37.Britain. We need to get the economy moving. We need to make more, sell
:05:37. > :05:41.more, export more, and Japan as the third largest economy in the world,
:05:41. > :05:44.a huge customer for British goods and a massive investor, back into
:05:44. > :05:49.Britain, and the news that Nissan are going to be making a new
:05:49. > :05:52.hatchback in Sunderland is going to create thousands of jobs in our
:05:52. > :05:58.country so I am here to encourage investment in Britain, but also, to
:05:58. > :06:01.sell things to Japan. I am told by Nissan that recruitment for these
:06:01. > :06:07.new jobs will start immediately after the Easter holidays, that is
:06:07. > :06:13.next week. They, like all car makers, have been making these
:06:13. > :06:19.plans for several years. You do not invest all these money -- this
:06:19. > :06:25.money unless you ask confident that the market will support it. Almost
:06:25. > :06:29.80% of the cars you will go for global export and then, you're at
:06:29. > :06:32.the mercy of the global economy. We have to hope that Nissan have got
:06:32. > :06:42.their sums right and that there will be no nasty shocks for this
:06:42. > :06:45.
:06:45. > :06:47.plant, years down the lane. -- line. Ten years ago today, York student
:06:48. > :06:50.Caroline Stuttle was murdered while she was backpacking in Australia.
:06:51. > :06:53.The 19 year-old was robbed and pushed off a bridge in the
:06:53. > :06:56.Queensland city of Bundaberg. Round about now, to mark the anniversary,
:06:56. > :06:59.Caroline's family and friends are attending a service in York Minster
:06:59. > :07:02.to celebrate her life. Before the service, they spoke to our reporter,
:07:02. > :07:05.Stuart Whincup. We will not see her we have to be married, have family,
:07:05. > :07:08.and all of the things that you expect from your children. You do
:07:08. > :07:12.not expect them to go, before you, she is never out of Airtours, but
:07:12. > :07:18.you have to do something positive, so you have to try and tell other
:07:18. > :07:23.people, and that is what we have focused on. Caroline was
:07:23. > :07:26.backpacking in Australia when she was robbed in the Queen's answer to
:07:26. > :07:29.Bundaberg. A drug addict was imprisoned for her mother.
:07:29. > :07:33.Carling's father said there have been many dark moments in the last
:07:33. > :07:37.10 years but he is determined to honour his daughter's memory by
:07:38. > :07:41.living his life to the full. was full of fun and full of
:07:41. > :07:47.ambition and when I get down I always think, Caroline would not
:07:47. > :07:52.want us to be like this. Get on and enjoy life. Following her
:07:52. > :08:00.daughter's death, Marjorie set up Carling's charity Mac, which
:08:00. > :08:04.advises young -- Caroline's Rainbow Foundation. They are free can help
:08:04. > :08:07.young people to travel in is safe environment and stop something
:08:07. > :08:13.nasty happening to another family, then we have done our job.
:08:13. > :08:17.Everybody wants to travel. The information is out there, and if
:08:17. > :08:20.people take the time to look at the information and become aware of
:08:20. > :08:28.their surroundings, then they will have a fantastic and more
:08:28. > :08:33.fulfilling experience. Today's service was billed as a celebration
:08:33. > :08:37.of Caroline's shortly. She was a young woman full of energy and
:08:37. > :08:44.accuse us and who dazzled all around her. They white people to
:08:44. > :08:54.remember that, and not the tragic way that she died -- Indian -- they
:08:54. > :08:57.
:08:57. > :09:00.It's one of the defining symbols of the North East. The Tyne Bridge is
:09:00. > :09:03.one of the most recognisable bridges in the world - and now it's
:09:03. > :09:05.to appear on a first-class stamp. Royal Mail's releasing the final
:09:05. > :09:08.batch of an alphabet of stamps, representing the UK's favourite
:09:08. > :09:12.tourist attractions. The Tyne Bridge represents the letter T. But
:09:12. > :09:16.the image is causing a bit of a stir, as Stephanie Lloyd reports.
:09:16. > :09:19.The Tyne Bridge - one of the most iconic images of the North East.
:09:19. > :09:27.But the eagle-eyed amongst you will have spotted something that's not
:09:27. > :09:30.quite right. The Tuxedo Princess nightclub is on the stamp. It was a
:09:30. > :09:36.feature on the River Tyne for many years, but it floated off four
:09:36. > :09:46.years ago. And the Millennium Bridge doesn't feature either. So
:09:46. > :09:47.
:09:47. > :09:55.does it get the stamp of approval? The boat is there. I prefer it
:09:55. > :10:05.without it! It is a bit off her. You have got some spectacular views
:10:05. > :10:06.
:10:06. > :10:09.of it now. It is a reminder of past times, isn't it? I have memories of
:10:10. > :10:15.dancing the night away their and meeting many handsome young man, I
:10:15. > :10:21.think I might have met my husband on there! But that is history now.
:10:21. > :10:31.It is history, for me, seeing that bout. In a statement, the Royal
:10:31. > :10:46.
:10:46. > :10:52.So what does a professional photographer make of it? It is
:10:52. > :11:00.ancient. It is at least take on nine years old. The tuxedo Princess
:11:00. > :11:04.is there. The Hanover Bridge is not let up. It is not as it should be.
:11:04. > :11:11.If you are trying to celebrate the region for a wider audience, at
:11:11. > :11:14.least use images that are relevant. The Tyne Bridge joins another
:11:14. > :11:17.iconic landmark in the region - York Minster - which represents the
:11:17. > :11:22.letter Y. The previous set featured the Angel of the North and
:11:22. > :11:29.Lindisfarne Priory. Stamp prices rise at the end of the month - so
:11:29. > :11:32.it will cost 60 pence for a piece of this postal portrait of Britain.
:11:32. > :11:41.Five people have been arrested in connection with the theft of
:11:41. > :11:43.valuable artefacts from Durham University's Oriental Museum. Two
:11:44. > :11:46.Qing Dynasty pieces, worth almost �2 million, were stolen from the
:11:46. > :11:49.museum in what police are calling: "a well planned, highly-organised"
:11:49. > :11:53.break-in last Thursday night. The five people arrested are from the
:11:53. > :11:59.West Midlands. You're watching Look North. Still to come, we have team
:11:59. > :12:04.talk, plus a pop superstar, as she were found this until we why she's
:12:04. > :12:08.hosting a Eurovision Charity Show here in the north. And what does
:12:08. > :12:18.the weather hold? I will be back with all the details in the
:12:18. > :12:18.
:12:18. > :12:21.forecast. I went to Blaydon races, it was on 9th June. Everybody knows
:12:21. > :12:28.the first line. But could you do any better rating the rest of it?
:12:28. > :12:38.To mark the 158 anniversary of the song, we want suggestions for new
:12:38. > :12:41.lyrics for the legendary song. To many people, this song is almost a
:12:41. > :12:47.hymn to the heritage of the north- east, so changing the lyrics was
:12:47. > :12:52.always going to be potentially touchy. But nobody is suggesting
:12:52. > :12:57.writing it out of existence. BBC Newcastle wants to hear your
:12:57. > :13:02.suggestions of an alternative version, just for fun. There are so
:13:02. > :13:07.many things when you look in the lyrics that are not there any more.
:13:07. > :13:13.How many of those races could you recite? Why not bring it up to
:13:13. > :13:17.2012? Local songwriter Pete Scott will compile the best suggestions
:13:17. > :13:23.into a finished song that will be sung by North East-born opera
:13:23. > :13:30.singer, Graeme Danby. It is an incredible song. We need to promote
:13:30. > :13:40.the song. As with lots of heritage, it needs to be, not just a rare,
:13:40. > :13:45.
:13:45. > :13:51.but promoted. -- not just preserved. Can the people of lead and sing the
:13:51. > :13:58.song? I know some of it but up all that. You cannot sing it for me?
:13:58. > :14:03.certainly cannot. What would you include if you were writing your
:14:03. > :14:11.lyrics? I do not think that it is a good idea. I went to Blaydon races,
:14:11. > :14:15.it was on at 9th June. I sing it when I have had a few drinks but I
:14:15. > :14:25.cannot remember it. Have you had a drink this morning, can you sing it
:14:25. > :14:31.
:14:31. > :14:41.for us? No thank you! Give it a try. You are joking! Haway me lads,
:14:41. > :14:41.
:14:41. > :14:51.something like that. You could put Greg's in, and McDonald's! Thank
:14:51. > :14:55.
:14:55. > :14:58.If you would like to submit a new verse, you can consult our Facebook
:14:58. > :15:01.page. The address is on the screen now.
:15:01. > :15:03.Now, it's being billed as a Eurovision extravaganza. A show
:15:03. > :15:06.featuring acts who've performed at the Eurovision Song Contest over
:15:06. > :15:10.the last 40 years. It's being held at The Sage, Gateshead, tomorrow
:15:10. > :15:13.night and it's all in aid of The Toma Fund, a charity which works to
:15:13. > :15:15.help children, teenagers and young people and their families affected
:15:15. > :15:18.by a diagnosis of childhood cancer. Hosting the event with Christopher
:15:18. > :15:22.Biggins is Sheila Ferguson, one of the Three Degrees, of course, and
:15:22. > :15:30.earlier she came into Look North to tell me a little bit about why
:15:30. > :15:34.she's involved. Interestingly by living here, I
:15:34. > :15:41.have lived here for almost 30 years, and I had never heard of the
:15:41. > :15:45.contest before then because it is to be visioned in Europe. Then I
:15:45. > :15:49.got caught up in the English culture and you wind up looking up
:15:49. > :15:57.-- forward to every year and pulling for your country. A lot of
:15:57. > :16:01.people find it too easy, but it is a big event. I think people could
:16:01. > :16:05.call pop idol and X-factor cheesy as well. At least you have
:16:05. > :16:10.countries competing in a nice way, there is no wall about it. There
:16:10. > :16:15.are so few things that bring people together and that is one of them.
:16:15. > :16:20.The whole point of the event is to race a lot of money for The Toma
:16:20. > :16:29.Fund, dedicated to children who died from cancer. It is an
:16:29. > :16:33.important cause Jimmy because I met his mother at the airport. I got a
:16:33. > :16:38.lot of empathy because I feel for her and what she went through. Also
:16:38. > :16:42.it appeals to me to help out. The help they give to the families and
:16:42. > :16:48.to what I know Andrea has explained to me, she has been to hell and
:16:48. > :16:52.back. The fact that she is going so far and has the drive to push it
:16:52. > :16:57.and to make it, to help other families, it is something I admire
:16:57. > :17:04.her for. Where they you are a big fan of the contest or not, great
:17:04. > :17:07.cause. It is. If you have as many winners of Eurovision as many do
:17:07. > :17:13.you can fly in, doing it in chronological order, that will make
:17:13. > :17:18.it easy for us to announce them. It will almost be like a historical
:17:18. > :17:23.event. I like that. Will we get a tune from you as well? I didn't
:17:23. > :17:28.think so, but I suspect how sneaky these people are, they might ask,
:17:28. > :17:31.so we will see. Thank you very much. My pleasure.
:17:31. > :17:41.Lovely lady! And "Toma's Eurovision Reunited" is at the Sage, Gateshead,
:17:41. > :17:41.
:17:41. > :17:44.at 7.30pm tomorrow night. Now Newcastle in the Champions League?
:17:44. > :17:47.Even the Match of the Day pundits were writing them off on Saturday
:17:47. > :17:49.night. They're having second thoughts now though, Dawn?
:17:49. > :17:53.They certainly are! Hardly surprising, because the Magpies
:17:53. > :17:56.have timed their run to perfection, just when some of the teams above
:17:56. > :17:59.them seem to be falling off the pace.
:17:59. > :18:02.Spot on. Let's look at the Premier League table. The Magpies are now
:18:02. > :18:06.below Spurs only on goal difference, in the race for that fourth
:18:06. > :18:09.Champions League spot. And they'll have their sights set on Arsenal,
:18:09. > :18:13.who are third. It's now five wins in a row for Newcastle, and when
:18:13. > :18:16.you look at their last five games of the season, a couple of tricky
:18:16. > :18:19.ones but you can see them winning three, or possibly even four, of
:18:19. > :18:23.those! Two wins out of two, over Easter.
:18:23. > :18:25.The first, at Swansea, on Good Friday. But we have to start with
:18:25. > :18:28.that goal. Yes, Hatem Ben Arfa with an
:18:28. > :18:38.incredible solo effort, against a Bolton team who'd actually been the
:18:38. > :18:40.
:18:40. > :18:48.better side up until then. Another contender for goal of the season.
:18:48. > :18:58.To go with the one he scored Not such a good Easter weekend for
:18:58. > :19:21.
:19:21. > :19:26.Sometimes it comes down to how bad What a find he has turned out to be.
:19:26. > :19:32.You have to credit the scout for that. He has done some great work
:19:32. > :19:34.this season. In the weekend of the US Masters golf, a little chip shop
:19:34. > :19:39.there. Beautiful golf.
:19:39. > :19:43.How many people can do that? last 10 games are the most
:19:44. > :19:47.important games of any season. We have been in the top six all season
:19:47. > :19:53.the so it is no mystery, but we have really hit a better form at
:19:53. > :19:58.the right time. With a five to go, we will enjoy it. It is a bit of
:19:58. > :20:01.fun for us now. It is Champions League staff.
:20:01. > :20:04.Just the one point from two tough games, and hardly a decent shot on
:20:04. > :20:07.target. In fact, this was probably the highlight of a pretty dull
:20:07. > :20:12.goalless draw with Spurs on Saturday - a fabulous, game-saving
:20:12. > :20:15.tackle from Craig Gardner, to stop Gareth Bale in his tracks.
:20:15. > :20:18.And then it was on to Goodison yesterday, and this was about as
:20:18. > :20:21.close as they came - an overhead kick from Stephane Sessegnon which
:20:21. > :20:29.flew just past the post. After that, it was the same old
:20:29. > :20:32.story! Four second-half goals against Everton.
:20:32. > :20:38.Everton have been a tough nut to crack for Sunderland because they
:20:38. > :20:43.have played them four at times, drawn twice and lost twice. It is
:20:43. > :20:47.Martin O'Neill's first defeat as a player or a manager for 13 games.
:20:48. > :20:52.Amazing. But the goals were flying in towards the end. Some great
:20:52. > :20:56.finishers. O'Neill said the players look -- look a bit tired. He stuck
:20:56. > :20:59.with the same team. Should you be giving your players
:20:59. > :21:06.an excuse like that at this point of the season? I don't know.
:21:06. > :21:10.Into the Championship now, and if Easter was bad for Sunderland it
:21:10. > :21:16.was a nightmare for Middlesbrough. Yes, beaten by two of their play-
:21:16. > :21:19.off rivals. It's now eight games without a win for the Boro, just
:21:19. > :21:22.four points out of the last 24. They couldn't have picked a worse
:21:22. > :21:25.time to lose form. That's right, Cardiff beat them 2-0
:21:25. > :21:29.at the Riverside on Saturday, a couple of goals inside the first 20
:21:29. > :21:32.minutes, and City hadn't won in six, so this was a big result for them.
:21:32. > :21:35.They climbed above Boro after that. Things seemed to be going better
:21:35. > :21:38.for them at Hull yesterday, though, Marvin Emnes putting Tony Mowbray's
:21:38. > :21:42.side ahead. But how many times have they gone in front and then failed
:21:42. > :21:45.to hold on to the lead? Funny you should ask that, Dawn!
:21:45. > :21:49.Cos I checked it out this afternoon - nine times by my reckoning - this
:21:49. > :21:52.is the first time they've been in front and not come out with
:21:52. > :21:55.anything. Eight times they were held to a draw, Matty Fryatt's late
:21:55. > :22:05.goal for Hull means, this season, Boro have left 19 points slip away
:22:05. > :22:07.
:22:07. > :22:12.from a winning position. I couldn't see them scoring. Very poor goal to
:22:12. > :22:15.concede. It get them a bit of relief on the terraces and on the
:22:15. > :22:18.pitch. They got the rewards very late on.
:22:18. > :22:21.And what that means is that Boro drop out of the play-off zone.
:22:21. > :22:28.Yes, they're down to eighth now, two points behind Cardiff, with
:22:28. > :22:32.just six games to play. They need to find a win from somewhere!
:22:32. > :22:35.Yes, by any means possible. Into League One now and Carlisle
:22:35. > :22:38.and Hartlepool drew all their games over Easter, Dawn? Yes, they both
:22:38. > :22:41.kicked off the long weekend by taking the lead away from home.
:22:41. > :22:44.There was an element of good fortune for the Cumbrians as J.P.
:22:44. > :22:46.McGovern's shot went in via the bar and a deflection, although Wycombe
:22:46. > :22:49.equalised late on. Hartlepool also conceded a late
:22:49. > :22:53.equaliser. That after taking the lead at Colchester thanks to
:22:53. > :22:55.Anthony Sweeney's header. By yesterday, though, the goals had
:22:55. > :22:58.dried up for both clubs. And Carlisle's failure to score against
:22:58. > :23:02.Scunthorpe - Lee Miller probably went closest at Brunton Park,
:23:02. > :23:05.allowed Notts County to squeeze them out of the play-off places. At
:23:05. > :23:11.least Hartlepool managed to hold another top six contender Brentford
:23:11. > :23:13.at Victoria Park, although scoring goals at home is becoming a problem.
:23:13. > :23:19.A disallowed effort apart, Ryan Noble, on loan from Sunderland in
:23:19. > :23:27.the orange boots, came closest to breaking the deadlock.
:23:27. > :23:37.13 games they have played this season without a goal. Not great.
:23:37. > :23:38.
:23:38. > :23:41.Sunshine and showers is going to this story after this week. After
:23:41. > :23:45.the record-breaking temperatures and snow, we return to more
:23:45. > :23:52.traditional springtime there for this week. A great weather picture
:23:52. > :23:56.to start us off. Thank you to Simon Elliott for this photo. The
:23:56. > :24:00.headline to go with him: Showers and bright spells over much of this
:24:00. > :24:04.week. April showers through today, turning into April showers this
:24:04. > :24:08.evening for much of the north-east. Dry and clear up for some time in
:24:08. > :24:12.the West, although a couple of showers here as well. Many parts of
:24:12. > :24:16.the North Pennines, dry and cold by dawn. Temperatures down to three
:24:16. > :24:20.degrees. Maybe colder in some countryside locations. The
:24:20. > :24:23.possibility of a touch of frost in rural spots. First thing tomorrow,
:24:23. > :24:27.lots of sunshine for the West and parts of North Yorkshire, but
:24:27. > :24:32.plenty of showers on the coast. Through the late morning and early
:24:32. > :24:37.afternoon, the showers will become more widespread. Things will turn
:24:37. > :24:44.pretty unsettled. Showers over the North Pennines will turn thundery,
:24:44. > :24:46.maybe even with pale and a rumble of thunder as we cross West words.
:24:46. > :24:51.Things are drier and brighter generally here. Everywhere the
:24:51. > :24:56.temperatures are about average for the time of year, around 10 degrees.
:24:56. > :25:01.Tomorrow, it will be in the 40s to know the 50s in Fahrenheit. Pretty
:25:01. > :25:05.pleasant if you were in one of the sunny spells, not so great in the
:25:06. > :25:09.heavy downpours. It continues in the same theme for this week.
:25:09. > :25:13.Further forward, low pressure in charge, keeping things unsettled,
:25:13. > :25:18.for the East in particular. More sunshine and showers for much of
:25:18. > :25:23.the north-east on Thursday. Dry air but cloudy in the West. For parts
:25:23. > :25:28.of the North Yorkshire coast, on Friday, we are forecasting some of
:25:28. > :25:33.their showers fought Tyneside and winning -- where side could have
:25:33. > :25:36.some sleet or hailed mixed in. A bit of a colder day, a northerly
:25:36. > :25:42.breeze on Friday, and we could get more sleep over the hills of the
:25:42. > :25:46.North Pennines and the North York Moors as well. It is very much
:25:46. > :25:51.average, this kind of weather. Bright for many of the mornings and
:25:51. > :25:56.then the relative warmth of the day. They are unleashed their energy in
:25:56. > :26:01.the heavy showers, some of which could be boundary as well tomorrow
:26:01. > :26:04.and Peru to Thursday and Friday. April showers, and if you are out
:26:04. > :26:11.and about in them with your cameras, we would love to see pictures of
:26:11. > :26:17.them. The winner of our mouth where there competition will be announced.
:26:17. > :26:20.You know where to send your pictures. -- March whether
:26:20. > :26:21.competition. And now a final look at tonight's
:26:21. > :26:24.headlines: The European Court of Human Rights
:26:24. > :26:27.has agreed that five terror suspects held in the UK, including
:26:27. > :26:31.the radical cleric Abu Hamza, can be extradited to the United States.
:26:31. > :26:34.And Nissan has unveiled plans for a fifth new model to be produced at
