Welcome to Monday's Look North. In tonight's headlines: Searching for | :00:03. | :00:07. | |
Ian. Rescue workers and the public are looking for an eight-year-old | :00:07. | :00:11. | |
boy who fell in the River Wear. Police are given more time to | :00:11. | :00:16. | |
question James Allen - suspected of two murders and a sexual assault. | :00:16. | :00:19. | |
500 workers across three counties fear for their jobs, as the future | :00:19. | :00:24. | |
of a major food company is thrown into doubt. | :00:25. | :00:29. | |
And, meet Matt. He's now half the man he was, after shedding 17 | :00:29. | :00:34. | |
stones! In sport - no promotion for Middlesbrough next season, but | :00:34. | :00:37. | |
Carlisle are still in with a shout of making the play-offs. And we're | :00:37. | :00:41. | |
down Wembley Way looking ahead to a big day out for three of our local | :00:41. | :00:51. | |

A search and rescue team from Derbyshire, equipped with a special | :00:58. | :01:02. | |
underwater camera, has joined the hunt for eight year-old Ian Bell. | :01:02. | :01:05. | |
The youngster fell into the River Wear on Friday evening, after | :01:05. | :01:11. | |
playing with friends. More than 50 local people have been working with | :01:11. | :01:13. | |
the police in the search along the riverbanks, downstream from | :01:13. | :01:21. | |
Willington, near Crook. Adrian Day four of the hunt for Ian Bell | :01:21. | :01:24. | |
and reinforcements from Derbyshire arrived this morning to join the | :01:24. | :01:27. | |
search. They have an underwater camera on a pole that can be used | :01:27. | :01:34. | |
to check all the tree roots where a body might snag. The river is still | :01:35. | :01:37. | |
in spate after the heavy rain of recent days and visibility below | :01:38. | :01:41. | |
the surface is only possible in an area roughly a foot in diameter so | :01:41. | :01:48. | |
it's painstaking work checking out the riverbed, foot by foot. The | :01:48. | :01:52. | |
arrival of the search team has added a vital new tool in the | :01:52. | :01:56. | |
search for Ian Bell. Police have praised the community effort. | :01:56. | :01:59. | |
Nearly 100 volunteers every day have been a long the river banks | :01:59. | :02:05. | |
trying to help find the missing boy. We would like to thank everyone for | :02:05. | :02:07. | |
been involved and thank the community for taking part and | :02:07. | :02:11. | |
assisting where they can. We just hope we can find Ian for their | :02:12. | :02:20. | |
family. The feeling of being able to help in some way, there is | :02:20. | :02:25. | |
something there that each and every person feels when a tragedy like | :02:25. | :02:32. | |
this happens. I suppose everybody just wants to feel that they can | :02:32. | :02:36. | |
maybe help. The search for Ian has extended downriver to Durham City | :02:36. | :02:39. | |
and Chester-le-Street, 10 miles downstream from Willington. But the | :02:39. | :02:41. | |
initial visual inspection of the riverbanks has drawn a blank. Now | :02:41. | :02:51. | |
:02:51. | :02:53. | ||
the underwater team will work their It's been one of the biggest | :02:53. | :02:55. | |
manhunts the region has seen in recent years, stretching from | :02:55. | :02:58. | |
Teesside in the North, across to Whitby and Scarborough on the coast, | :02:58. | :03:02. | |
then down to Leeds - drawing in police from three forces. Double | :03:02. | :03:05. | |
murder suspect James Allen, who was arrested yesterday in Leeds, is now | :03:05. | :03:08. | |
in police custody in Middlesbrough. Stephanie Lloyd joins us now from | :03:08. | :03:17. | |
Middlesbrough police headquarters Double murder suspect James Allen | :03:17. | :03:20. | |
is being questioned by police in Middlesbrough, after being moved | :03:20. | :03:24. | |
here from Yorkshire in the early hours. Detectives have been given | :03:24. | :03:27. | |
more time to question the 36-year- old in connection with two murders | :03:27. | :03:32. | |
and a sexual assault. It was a week ago today that the body of Colin | :03:32. | :03:37. | |
Dunford was found in his house in Middlesbrough. Two days later, | :03:37. | :03:42. | |
Julie Davison's body was found in Whitby. When police linked the | :03:42. | :03:50. | |
deaths, it sparked a huge police James Allen was arrested in Leeds | :03:50. | :03:53. | |
at around 7:30am on Sunday morning after an off-duty police officer | :03:53. | :03:58. | |
saw a man fitting his description. It brought to an end a major three- | :03:58. | :04:04. | |
day hunt involving hundreds of officers and several police forces. | :04:04. | :04:07. | |
Allen was moved from West Yorkshire to a police station in | :04:07. | :04:10. | |
Middlesbrough in the early hours of this morning for further | :04:10. | :04:12. | |
questioning in connection with the murders of 81-year-old Colin | :04:12. | :04:14. | |
Dunford in Middlesbrough and 50- year-old Julie Davison in Whitby. | :04:14. | :04:22. | |
They'd both suffered serious head injuries. Flowers continued to be | :04:22. | :04:28. | |
left near the home of Colin Dunford. The family of Mrs Davison released | :04:28. | :04:31. | |
a statement, saying Julie was one of the kindest people you could | :04:31. | :04:35. | |
ever wish to know and went out of her way to help others. She did not | :04:35. | :04:41. | |
deserve to die in such terrible circumstances. We are so very sad | :04:41. | :04:44. | |
that her hopes of building a new life in her home town of Whitby | :04:44. | :04:49. | |
ended so tragically. The first appeal for James Allen was made on | :04:49. | :04:52. | |
Thursday. Then the hunt moved to Scarborough where it emerged he'd | :04:52. | :04:58. | |
had spent the night in a guesthouse. If he was very pleasant. An | :04:58. | :05:03. | |
intelligent bloke. He made a lot of conversation. Just like an ordinary | :05:03. | :05:08. | |
holiday maker. He said he was doing business on the seafront and | :05:08. | :05:13. | |
planning some amusement arcades. You had no idea the police were | :05:13. | :05:16. | |
seeking him in connection with the murders of two people? Not an | :05:16. | :05:20. | |
inkling. Then CCTV images showed he'd moved on to Leeds, where he | :05:20. | :05:24. | |
was finally arrested. The police said there was no evidence of | :05:24. | :05:26. | |
further victims but appealed for people to check on vulnerable | :05:26. | :05:34. | |
friends, relatives and neighbours. We are investigating two deaths, | :05:34. | :05:40. | |
and without a doubt this is a dangerous man. I think it is | :05:40. | :05:45. | |
prudent to ensure that everyone is safe and well. Now detectives are | :05:45. | :05:48. | |
trying to piece together the double murder suspect's movements while he | :05:48. | :05:51. | |
was on the run and find out whether anyone's been helping him. As the | :05:52. | :05:53. | |
double murder investigation continues, detectives are asking | :05:53. | :05:56. | |
people to check gardens and outbuildings for signs of anyone | :05:56. | :05:59. | |
living rough, and to get in touch if they find any discarded clothing | :05:59. | :06:02. | |
or footwear in the Whitby and Scarborough areas as they continue | :06:02. | :06:05. | |
to try to piece together James Allen's movements over the past | :06:05. | :06:15. | |
:06:15. | :06:21. | ||
A mother and son, found shot dead in a car at a golf club in County | :06:21. | :06:26. | |
Durham, have been named by police. The bodies of Ian Blakey, who was | :06:26. | :06:29. | |
34, and a woman believed to be his mother, Jean Blakey, who was 55, | :06:29. | :06:32. | |
were discovered at Crook Golf Club on Saturday morning. It's thought | :06:32. | :06:34. | |
she was suffering from multiple sclerosis. Police aren't looking | :06:34. | :06:38. | |
for anyone else in connection with the deaths. | :06:38. | :06:42. | |
An 18-year old has become the second woman in a week to be | :06:42. | :06:47. | |
sentenced for falsely claiming she'd been raped in Carlisle. The | :06:47. | :06:49. | |
city's magistrates heard how Takara Harding told police she'd been | :06:49. | :06:52. | |
attacked on West Walls last October during a spate of alleged sex | :06:52. | :06:58. | |
attacks. She was given a four-month suspended sentence. Last week 20- | :06:58. | :07:01. | |
year-old Chloe Fox also admitted lying about being raped in an alley | :07:01. | :07:03. | |
near Warwick Road. The journalism student also received a four-month | :07:03. | :07:11. | |
suspended term. Might detectives were actually | :07:11. | :07:15. | |
taken off other cases and could not investigate other cases like | :07:15. | :07:20. | |
burglaries and thefts and all the resources were actually put into | :07:20. | :07:23. | |
addressing this investigation. That is the biggest headache, more than | :07:23. | :07:28. | |
anything else. Also on top of that is the public perception and fear. | :07:28. | :07:31. | |
That was a headache and we had to put out a lot of messages to | :07:31. | :07:36. | |
reassure the public. More importantly, we had to tell people | :07:36. | :07:40. | |
that they had to try and be safe. Hundreds of workers, at three | :07:40. | :07:43. | |
separate seafood factories in our region, are tonight anxiously | :07:43. | :07:46. | |
awaiting news of their fate. Young's Seafoods said in January | :07:46. | :07:50. | |
that more than 500 jobs were at risk at sites in Seaham, in County | :07:50. | :07:52. | |
Durham, Amble in Northumberland and Whitehaven in Cumbria. A | :07:52. | :07:55. | |
consultation period was due to finish by now. But, as Peter Harris | :07:55. | :08:01. | |
Its future in doubt for months, this factory has been a major | :08:01. | :08:11. | |
employer. Few expect good news. years ago, the company was booming. | :08:11. | :08:15. | |
They were supporting local sport, they had done everything. They have | :08:15. | :08:18. | |
come in and joined in the community and unfortunately we are losing a | :08:18. | :08:23. | |
good company, but sadly we are losing a lot of jobs. There are a | :08:23. | :08:26. | |
lot of young people in their who have taken mortgages out for their | :08:26. | :08:32. | |
new houses and I fear for them. Cumbrian Seafoods went into | :08:32. | :08:35. | |
administration in December and its contracts taken over by its rival | :08:35. | :08:39. | |
Young's. A review started, with the company warning 550 jobs were at | :08:39. | :08:49. | |
:08:49. | :08:50. | ||
risk. Still there is no word at the end of a 90-day consultation period. | :08:50. | :08:56. | |
The company says all options are in play but it leaves more than 360 | :08:56. | :09:01. | |
jobs at risk here, and more than 100 at Whitehaven in Cumbria and | :09:01. | :09:04. | |
another 80 in Northumberland. With the uncertainty continuing, Look | :09:04. | :09:12. | |
North has been told some workers have already gone. We have been | :09:12. | :09:19. | |
haemorrhaging private sector jobs throughout Easter and actually | :09:19. | :09:23. | |
since before Christmas. It is really concerning for the people | :09:23. | :09:29. | |
affected and for the economy of the north-east and East Durham. Young's | :09:29. | :09:32. | |
says it can't say when any announcement on the future might | :09:32. | :09:39. | |
come. For the workers, the wait It was a photograph on Facebook | :09:39. | :09:43. | |
that changed his life. Matt Briggs from York weighed 31 stones putting | :09:43. | :09:47. | |
his life in danger. He started to put weight on following the death | :09:47. | :09:51. | |
of his mother, when he was 15. But he was so shocked by a photograph | :09:51. | :09:56. | |
of himself, he vowed to take drastic action. Now Matt's been | :09:56. | :09:58. | |
named Slimming World's Greatest Loser 2012 after shedding a | :09:58. | :10:07. | |
staggering 17 and half stones. It was this unflattering picture | :10:07. | :10:16. | |
that made Matt change his life. I knew I wasn't happy. I was getting | :10:17. | :10:23. | |
up, going to work, going to sleep and just getting into a cycle. You | :10:23. | :10:26. | |
have in your head what sort of size you think you are, and I had | :10:26. | :10:32. | |
deluded myself, thinking I was about seven or eight stone smaller | :10:32. | :10:38. | |
than I was. The Facebook photograph shocked him and inspired by his | :10:38. | :10:41. | |
mother in law he joined a slimming class. But it was a challenge set | :10:41. | :10:44. | |
by his father that provided the encouragement he needed. My dad | :10:44. | :10:49. | |
gave me a bet saying that he would pay for my first 12 weeks and if I | :10:49. | :10:52. | |
didn't lose two stone, I would have to give him the money back. Being a | :10:52. | :10:56. | |
Yorkshireman, getting money out of him is always amazing any way and | :10:56. | :11:00. | |
to get money without having to pay him back is even better. So the | :11:00. | :11:05. | |
first week I went to Slimming World, and after that first week, I knew | :11:05. | :11:09. | |
he would not see the money again. After two years of healthy food and | :11:10. | :11:12. | |
regular exercise Matt lost a staggering 17 stone and has now | :11:12. | :11:19. | |
being crowned Slimming World's Greatest Loser. It is the whole | :11:20. | :11:24. | |
thing. By will be turning 30 years old and a week, and thankfully not | :11:24. | :11:31. | |
30 stone. It is a complete 180 degree turn from where I was two | :11:31. | :11:35. | |
years ago. A lot of my friends are dreading turning 30, but I just | :11:35. | :11:40. | |
want to bring it on. It is a brand new start for me. For all the | :11:40. | :11:42. | |
success and celebrations Matt has been left with one big problem. | :11:42. | :11:52. | |
:11:52. | :11:53. | ||
What does he do now with all his A fantastic effort. Plenty more to | :11:53. | :11:57. | |
come in tonight's Look North: Coming up next: Celebrating Boro's | :11:57. | :12:00. | |
spiritual home. And later, the fishnets that are bringing big | :12:00. | :12:07. | |
money into Whitby. Weather wise we got off relatively lightly today, | :12:07. | :12:10. | |
but joined later to find out what is in store for the next few days. | :12:11. | :12:20. | |
:12:21. | :12:21. | ||
Exactly 17 years ago, Middlesbrough Football Club played their final | :12:21. | :12:25. | |
game at best some Park. To mark the occasion they have had a ceremony | :12:25. | :12:29. | |
at the last remaining piece of the old stadium, the wall that stood at | :12:29. | :12:32. | |
the back of the home fans' favourite terrace and was restored | :12:32. | :12:42. | |
:12:42. | :12:45. | ||
last year with money from The Holgate End where the most | :12:45. | :12:49. | |
passionate of human emotions flowed, where people fell head over heels | :12:49. | :12:53. | |
in love. The wall behind the terrace is the only bricks and | :12:53. | :12:57. | |
mortar as left, and although the paintwork has faded, the memories | :12:57. | :13:04. | |
never did. I only ever stood in one place, the Holgate End, so that is | :13:04. | :13:08. | |
a nice memory. I think it is very important for the people of | :13:08. | :13:13. | |
Middlesbrough. The older generation in particular. I could think of | :13:13. | :13:18. | |
going there, buying a Bovril at the stand, climbing the steps and I can | :13:18. | :13:22. | |
think of the first sights and sounds as I went over the top into | :13:22. | :13:26. | |
the terrace. Those are the sort of memories that come surging through | :13:26. | :13:30. | |
as I walk past the wall. commemorate the 17th anniversary of | :13:30. | :13:36. | |
the last match here, today there was a prayer from a local priest. | :13:36. | :13:40. | |
May the Lord bless all the gatherers here and made this remain | :13:40. | :13:44. | |
in the hearts of so many people forever. Together with the slightly | :13:44. | :13:51. | |
more orthodox football tradition. Anyone for Bovril? The wall was | :13:51. | :13:55. | |
raised in the 1966 World Cup to stop local kids getting in for free. | :13:55. | :13:59. | |
But one fact you won't read about is that part of the wall formed the | :13:59. | :14:03. | |
back of the open-air gents urinal. It was a different era, and match | :14:03. | :14:13. | |
days were such a different Some great memories. | :14:13. | :14:17. | |
When you think of Whitby, and you probably thinks his side, fishing | :14:17. | :14:22. | |
ships and maybe the TV show Heartbeat, but twice every year | :14:22. | :14:28. | |
strange things are afoot, enough to drain the colour from your face. | :14:28. | :14:33. | |
Bram Stoker was inspired to write Dracula when he came to Whitby in | :14:33. | :14:39. | |
1890. His influence has turned it into a modern day Mecca for Goths. | :14:39. | :14:44. | |
17 years ago, just 200 people came for the first ever Goth Weekend in | :14:44. | :14:50. | |
the town. Today there are thousands. It started off as a very small | :14:50. | :14:56. | |
event in a local pub. It has just exploded. It is very diverse. If | :14:56. | :15:02. | |
you get under-18s with their mums and dads, you get what we call Goth | :15:02. | :15:06. | |
spotters, you village couple coming to spot up -- soak up the | :15:06. | :15:10. | |
atmosphere, we get a lot of costume dressers now and they can spend | :15:10. | :15:15. | |
�1,000 on an active. For them it is all about promenading. Fishing used | :15:15. | :15:18. | |
to be the major industry for Whitby but now they say the fishnet | :15:18. | :15:23. | |
stockings worn by the Goths brings a far more -- brings in far more | :15:23. | :15:30. | |
cash than the fishing net themselves. Whitby is based on | :15:30. | :15:35. | |
tourism now. 25 % of the people work in tourism and therefore shops, | :15:35. | :15:43. | |
cafes, restaurants are all busy and grit. It is fantastic. And with two | :15:43. | :15:47. | |
Goth Weekends taking place here annually, that means more than �1 | :15:47. | :15:51. | |
million are injected into Whitby's economy each year, so if you missed | :15:51. | :15:56. | |
this one it is -- there is a second chance to get Gothic at the next | :15:56. | :16:02. | |
event, over Halloween. Nothing quite so frightening now, | :16:02. | :16:05. | |
unless you're a Newcastle United fan, because it is time for | :16:05. | :16:12. | |
Teamtalk. Lots to get through tonight. Not | :16:12. | :16:16. | |
least the shocking end to the Magpies' six-match winning streak | :16:16. | :16:20. | |
at Wigan. Wigan had meat and Liverpool, Arsenal and Manchester | :16:21. | :16:25. | |
United in recent weeks so they were always going to be tricky. But no | :16:25. | :16:29. | |
one bought it would be 4-0. An astonishing result when you think | :16:29. | :16:34. | |
again hacked scored just 15 goals in front of their home fans this | :16:34. | :16:39. | |
season. But they have played some good football this season. Roberto | :16:39. | :16:44. | |
Di Matteo has done a good job. When you are fighting for your Premier | :16:44. | :16:48. | |
League lives it is difficult for Newcastle to match Basil de passion. | :16:48. | :16:56. | |
There certainly did turn on some fantastic stuff in the half -- | :16:56. | :17:01. | |
first half, Wigan. When you get a goal like that your heart must sink | :17:01. | :17:08. | |
but Newcastle, to be fair to them... Look at the fans at half-time. This | :17:08. | :17:12. | |
young lad is obvious is saying, Dad, can it get any worse in the second | :17:12. | :17:19. | |
half? They did get better in the second half. CSA on another day | :17:19. | :17:27. | |
would have put some of those in. -- cypresses say. The strange thing is, | :17:27. | :17:31. | |
it is not the first time they had been thumped the season. They have | :17:31. | :17:35. | |
not lost too many. They still write up there, there, which may be says | :17:35. | :17:39. | |
something for the character of the team. But that will be tested to | :17:39. | :17:44. | |
the fore at Chelsea on Wednesday night. Away from the Premier League, | :17:44. | :17:46. | |
Middlesbrough did not making to the Championship play-offs but there | :17:46. | :17:50. | |
was still has plenty to celebrate last night at end-of-season awards. | :17:50. | :17:54. | |
Goalkeeper Jason Steele won the Young Player award and Rhys | :17:54. | :17:57. | |
Williams picked up the trophy for the players' player. Barry Robson, | :17:57. | :18:01. | |
now off to join Vancouver Whitecaps in character, was Player of the | :18:01. | :18:05. | |
Year. There was also an emotional speech by manager Tony Mowbray. He | :18:05. | :18:09. | |
was so disappointed they did not make it. There were a few Seabridge | :18:09. | :18:18. | |
euros needed at Watford. Sadly, Scott Loach was a super hero. Boro | :18:18. | :18:22. | |
had to win and Cardiff had to lose at Crystal Palace for the | :18:22. | :18:25. | |
Teessiders to finish in the top six but Oddie came from behind to pick | :18:25. | :18:28. | |
up the points that meant that whatever Boro did they could not | :18:28. | :18:35. | |
catch up. Barry Robson said in this one up for Martin Emnes. But what | :18:35. | :18:39. | |
that pitched been Burnett later on. Not Brayshaw what Stephen Moffit is | :18:39. | :18:43. | |
going to do with a panda in pink pyjamas but there you go. The boss | :18:43. | :18:47. | |
was magnanimous in defeat. thought we played well enough to | :18:47. | :18:52. | |
get a result. The bigger picture, we have to congratulate Cardiff. I | :18:52. | :18:58. | |
got the job done. That is what they needed to done today. We have to | :18:58. | :19:04. | |
brush ourselves down and get ready to go again next season. | :19:04. | :19:07. | |
A mite Boro Carlisle could still make the play-offs in League 1 but | :19:07. | :19:13. | |
they will have to win at Oldham next week. And Hague Stevenage and | :19:13. | :19:18. | |
Notts County slip up. These are actually Exeter fans before the | :19:18. | :19:22. | |
game at Brunton Park. Carlisle hacked to win this one to keep in | :19:22. | :19:25. | |
the play-off chase. Francois Zoko put them ahead. What about this | :19:25. | :19:28. | |
very fabulous finish from Jordan Cook on loan from Sunderland? This | :19:28. | :19:36. | |
sort of game, poll, that might make Martin O'Neill take notice. Liam | :19:36. | :19:39. | |
Noble, a former Sunderland midfielder, had his Twitter account | :19:39. | :19:43. | |
closed by the club last week after four-letter comments about Black | :19:43. | :19:48. | |
Cats and their fans. The FA are investigating. If Francois Zoko's | :19:48. | :19:53. | |
agent has a video of his best gulls on YouTube. I do not think he will | :19:53. | :19:59. | |
have this one on quite yet. On to the teams with only a final | :19:59. | :20:09. | |
:20:09. | :20:10. | ||
place to play for. Sunderland, 77 hours without -- seven hours of | :20:10. | :20:15. | |
football without a goal. A very nice second goal as well, by James | :20:15. | :20:22. | |
McClean. A while since we have seen this. Maerdy -- Martin O'Neill | :20:22. | :20:26. | |
budget the end. No one spotted Hartlepool's Evan Horwood out on | :20:26. | :20:32. | |
the brink or on his own. Pass to me! But he still got the ball, | :20:32. | :20:36. | |
across from Ryan Noble on loan from Sunderland, the to head his home. | :20:37. | :20:40. | |
He has been practising that in the garden with his dad! | :20:40. | :20:46. | |
Two champions at the weekend, a Sunderland won the Women's Premier | :20:46. | :20:50. | |
League and Hetton Lyons from County Durham won the FA Sunday Cup. Three | :20:50. | :20:55. | |
teams from our region are heading for Wembley. | :20:55. | :21:02. | |
A case of the big time. Suddenly players from West Auckland Town in | :21:02. | :21:12. | |
Dunston UTS are being treated like stars. And I desire not to take in. | :21:12. | :21:22. | |
:21:22. | :21:27. | ||
So many different games people have sat here. It is very overwhelming. | :21:27. | :21:37. | |
:21:37. | :21:38. | ||
It is awesome. What dreams are made of. I am gobsmacked. West Auckland | :21:38. | :21:42. | |
captain Matty Moffatt is finding life tough being out of work but | :21:42. | :21:46. | |
he's back to graze possibly the greatest stage in world football. | :21:46. | :21:55. | |
You dream of it, growing up as a kid. To be part of it, or words | :21:55. | :21:58. | |
cannot describe. Some professional footballers do not make Ghiggia. | :21:58. | :22:03. | |
York City, meanwhile, are more used to the surroundings but they have | :22:03. | :22:08. | |
lost their last two finals at Wembley. One play-off and the last | :22:08. | :22:13. | |
in the FA Trophy. I would like to think we can put it right this time. | :22:13. | :22:16. | |
We have a chance to get to the play-off finals as well so it would | :22:16. | :22:21. | |
be a great achievement. Just being here once is already enough for | :22:21. | :22:25. | |
Dunston and West Boldon. When you're used to playing in front of | :22:25. | :22:30. | |
150 people, suddenly being in a stadium which seeds 90,000 is a big | :22:30. | :22:33. | |
deal. But there is a question about where they ate the events will be | :22:33. | :22:39. | |
held here in the future, and it is because of this. Then deceits. | :22:39. | :22:45. | |
9,000 people saw Whitley Bay a win the bars last year. It is the the | :22:45. | :22:50. | |
attendance will be lower this yet for at all North East final. So | :22:50. | :22:55. | |
fans are being urged to make the trip down. It is important to come | :22:55. | :23:01. | |
back in numbers to support the occasion. Their team might get the | :23:01. | :23:06. | |
chance next year or the year after. What is more certain for the bras | :23:06. | :23:12. | |
in the immediate future is going back to the North East. -- Pool B | :23:12. | :23:18. | |

The organisers of the 21st Pirelli International Rally rally which | :23:26. | :23:30. | |
began in Carlisle on Friday reckon it will have contributed more than | :23:30. | :23:35. | |
�1 million to the local economy. More than 100 drivers took on trial | :23:35. | :23:39. | |
stages in Kielder Forest at the weekend, with the best won by Keith | :23:39. | :23:48. | |
Cronin along with co-driver Marshall Cole. -- Marshall Clarke. | :23:48. | :23:58. | |

It is the wettest drought I have We have got off fairly lightly -- | :23:59. | :24:04. | |
lightly today. The Met Office to have meant for 2012 as the wettest | :24:04. | :24:09. | |
on record. No shortage of April showers. An East-West kit -- split | :24:09. | :24:19. | |

These should see more brightness tomorrow and then some rain | :24:27. | :24:31. | |
spreading up from the south later in the day. As we headed to the | :24:31. | :24:34. | |
evening and overnight tonight a couple of flood warnings in force | :24:34. | :24:39. | |
for parts of North Yorkshire. You can get the latest information on | :24:39. | :24:46. | |
this bloodline or the Environment Agency website. A lot of cloud this | :24:46. | :24:50. | |
evening. Most places will stay dry but rarely flouted through the | :24:50. | :25:00. | |
:25:00. | :25:03. | ||
night. A bit more in the way up brightness tomorrow than many | :25:03. | :25:08. | |
places saw today. The cloud Figgins up again from the South later. At | :25:08. | :25:15. | |
the cloud brings some rain. By teatime many places will have seen | :25:16. | :25:23. | |
showery rain. The north-easterly wind again quite as the times | :25:23. | :25:30. | |
tomorrow. Most eastern areas should make it into double figures, which | :25:30. | :25:36. | |
they did not to today. As we head through the next few days, a fairly | :25:36. | :25:41. | |
messy pressure chart. Later in the week the cold front comes down from | :25:41. | :25:46. | |
the North, introducing cold air as well. If you are out and about on | :25:46. | :25:50. | |
Wednesday, or western areas are more likely to see showery rain. | :25:50. | :26:00. | |
