:00:00. > :00:07.Welcome to Tuesday's Look North. In tonight's headlines: No criminal

:00:08. > :00:11.charges. The latest twist in the case of

:00:12. > :00:15.Cumbria's Police Commissioner and a controversial expenses claim made

:00:16. > :00:18.public. Excitement mounts in a seaside town

:00:19. > :00:22.as it prepares to welcome World Cup Rugby League.

:00:23. > :00:25.He's one of the oldest working farmers in Britain but 100`year`old

:00:26. > :00:40.Walter says he has no plans to retire. I don't feel old. I feel

:00:41. > :00:43.like I did when I was 50. And the story of a Tyneside boy band

:00:44. > :00:46.member turned composer who caught the attention of Sir Tim Rice.

:00:47. > :00:50.In sport, bye`bye, Boro. Another one bites the dust as Middlesbrough sack

:00:51. > :01:06.Mowbray after almost three years in charge at the Riverside.

:01:07. > :01:18.He's one of... I beg your pardon. It was a case that caused an outcry.

:01:19. > :01:21.The arrest earlier this year of three civilian police staff after

:01:22. > :01:23.the leaking of details about Cumbria's crime commissioner's

:01:24. > :01:27.travel expenses. Well, after a long police inquiry, the last person to

:01:28. > :01:34.be investigated over the leaks has been told she too won't face

:01:35. > :01:37.prosecution. Mark McAlindon reports. When this row broke, though

:01:38. > :01:44.accusations this was the silencing of free speech. The heavy hands of

:01:45. > :01:46.the law had been used to punish legitimate whistle`blowers. The

:01:47. > :01:50.Police and Crime Commissioner says that he and his officer it behaved

:01:51. > :01:55.impeccably, played by the rules, throughout.

:01:56. > :01:58.It was a local newspaper that revealed Richard Rhodes had taken

:01:59. > :02:03.two chauffer driven trips at a cost of ?700. Some thought that an

:02:04. > :02:05.extravagance, but the storm would really start when a police

:02:06. > :02:14.investigation was launched and three people arrested. Today, one local MP

:02:15. > :02:22.condemned the whole episode. The fact that it then took so long for

:02:23. > :02:29.this to be investigated and no charge to be made, it wasted so much

:02:30. > :02:33.police time and resources but in the end I hope this is a reminder that

:02:34. > :02:37.the people who blow the whistle on important things like this about

:02:38. > :02:40.expenses should be celebrated and not arrested. A complaint had come

:02:41. > :02:46.from Mr Rhodes' office, but he says police decisions are nothing to do

:02:47. > :02:52.with him. That complaint was passed to the service provider, the

:02:53. > :02:57.constabulary. The constabulary then made the decision not to pursue the

:02:58. > :03:00.matter. Earlier this year, two people were told they would not face

:03:01. > :03:03.charges. And now the third, a 50`year`old woman, has been informed

:03:04. > :03:23.she won't face prosecution. In a statement, the police said.

:03:24. > :03:28.It comes after the Crown Prosecution Service told police there was

:03:29. > :03:33.insufficient evidence of any possible conviction and that any

:03:34. > :03:38.defendant would be able to argue in court that revealing those expenses

:03:39. > :03:41.was in the public interest. It is being interpreted as whistle`blowing

:03:42. > :03:44.but what I'm saying is I accept the idea that there must be some

:03:45. > :03:47.whistle`blowing in the public sector because that's the only way

:03:48. > :03:57.sometimes that corrupt practice comes to light. Having said that,

:03:58. > :04:00.the constabulary, it has a `` it has a whistle`blowing policy which

:04:01. > :04:04.wasn't followed in this case. The upshot is no one will be prosecuted

:04:05. > :04:08.for this leak but in the last half`hour, the temporary chief

:04:09. > :04:16.constable has issued a statement. He says he is aware that Commons have

:04:17. > :04:21.been made to conduct an investigation. He can confirm that

:04:22. > :04:25.this is not the case and that there will be an independent investigation

:04:26. > :04:31.and that is his duty to do so. That is just in the last half an hour.

:04:32. > :04:36.It's emerged that a woman murdered in York was an estate agent in the

:04:37. > :04:39.city. She's been named locally as 32`year`old Nicole Waterhouse, who

:04:40. > :04:43.worked at Hunters Estate Agents and was the daughter of a partner in the

:04:44. > :04:46.business. Police were called to an apartment in Phoenix Boulevard in

:04:47. > :04:49.York on Sunday evening, where they found the body of the victim and

:04:50. > :05:01.another 23`year`old woman who'd been seriously injured. A 25`year`old man

:05:02. > :05:04.has been arrested. A north`east MP has raised concerns some of the

:05:05. > :05:08.region's patients are being ferried the treatments on the back`seat of

:05:09. > :05:12.police cars. On last night's Look North we told you about the claims

:05:13. > :05:15.that, in some cases, police cars were being used because of delays

:05:16. > :05:17.affecting ambulance crews at hospitals. The north`east Ambulance

:05:18. > :05:20.Service admits there's a problem but has denied that critically ill

:05:21. > :05:23.people have been involved. Darlington's Labour MP Jenny Chapman

:05:24. > :05:27.raised the issue with Jeremy Hunt in the Commons earlier today. How can

:05:28. > :05:33.the public have confidence in their health service when police officers

:05:34. > :05:38.are taking patients who are sick and injured to AMD instead of an

:05:39. > :05:45.ambulance because they are backed up outside of a and E. They can have

:05:46. > :05:50.confidence because compared to three years ago on broadly the same budget

:05:51. > :05:55.the NHS is doing 800,000 more operations, year in, year out, MRSA

:05:56. > :06:00.rates have halved, and patients waiting a year or longer for their

:06:01. > :06:03.operations have gone down from 18,000 to less than 400.

:06:04. > :06:07.A week tonight, Workington hosts the first of two matches in the Rugby

:06:08. > :06:10.League World Cup. And the town and the wider community are hoping to

:06:11. > :06:13.cash in on the potential economic benefits of the prestigious event. A

:06:14. > :06:17.combined total of more than 12,000 fans are expected to travel to West

:06:18. > :06:20.Cumbria to watch the matches. Scotland against Tonga and then

:06:21. > :06:22.Scotland against Italy the following Sunday. And as Graham Moss found

:06:23. > :06:38.out, the excitement is building. Preparations for the Rugby League

:06:39. > :06:42.World Cup are under way in the most unexpected places. Children at this

:06:43. > :06:48.primary School in Harrington just outside Workington are rehearsing

:06:49. > :06:57.especially composed and them. `` a specially composed anthem. We got

:06:58. > :07:02.the whole school to sing. They sounded great this morning. It's a

:07:03. > :07:09.great opportunity for us. It's really exciting. It is a fantastic

:07:10. > :07:19.thing. I think everyone here is at peak fan of it. Me and my dad always

:07:20. > :07:22.go every year to see England and Australia play. It's a fantastic

:07:23. > :07:27.thing for the town and area, and it's so exciting for the children

:07:28. > :07:34.and people in the area to have the Rugby League World Cup. Bell

:07:35. > :07:39.Telewest Cumbria has built up coal, iron ore, steel and the league. It's

:07:40. > :07:44.in the DNA. Rugby League is not the powerhouse it once was here but it's

:07:45. > :07:48.hoped that hosting the World Cup will boost the sport and economy. It

:07:49. > :07:53.puts us on to the world arena because it is the World Cup, it

:07:54. > :07:59.sells the area. When these teams go back to their original homes, they

:08:00. > :08:04.will come back and visit West Cumbria because they will get a

:08:05. > :08:11.fantastic welcome. And they will be looked after. We have 1700 kids

:08:12. > :08:16.playing Rugby League. I hope they will come back to the sport. And we

:08:17. > :08:20.hope they will be fans to come back and support the professional and

:08:21. > :08:28.amateur game. Whilst there are no official figures on how much there

:08:29. > :08:33.is to be expected `` on how much is going to generate, people are

:08:34. > :08:39.excited. It is West Cumbria, we've got local activities, cultural

:08:40. > :08:44.performances, fireworks, a lot more than the games and there will be

:08:45. > :08:54.lots of spectacles. In the first match, Scotland versus Tonga next

:08:55. > :08:58.week. We will be live at a civic reception to welcome Scotland's

:08:59. > :09:00.National Rugby League squad later in the programme.

:09:01. > :09:04.He's turned 100, but jokes that he has no idea what he'll do when he

:09:05. > :09:07.gets old. Walter Bainbridge is one of the oldest farmers in Britain,

:09:08. > :09:12.having started out in the early 1930s. He still drives and goes to

:09:13. > :09:14.livestock auctions three times a week. But despite celebrating his

:09:15. > :09:26.century, the great`great`grandfather says there's no chance he'll retire.

:09:27. > :09:31.Peter Harris went to meet him. He's had the cards, the party and

:09:32. > :09:34.the message from the Queen, but passing his century was no reason

:09:35. > :09:44.for water to start slacking. 80 years as a farmer and counting. I

:09:45. > :09:49.don't feel old! I feel better now than I did at 50. Always something

:09:50. > :09:57.to do, whether I am at home on the farm, or at the market. I'm

:09:58. > :10:02.interested in anything. Today, he's at an auction in Northallerton. He's

:10:03. > :10:08.a regular here. He first came in 1927. This is where water to be. He

:10:09. > :10:13.will do this two or three times a week, at Carlisle, XM,

:10:14. > :10:18.Northallerton, and, incredibly, he is still driving his own car. He

:10:19. > :10:25.doesn't miss a trick! As soon as his cattle coming, he's waving his arms,

:10:26. > :10:32.and making sure everyone knows. Have you come across anyone older? Not an

:10:33. > :10:38.older farmer. He is very sharp. These days, the family farm is run

:10:39. > :10:42.by water's sons but the old man is always around to keep things

:10:43. > :10:47.straight. Mentally, still got it all. He knows when I'm buying

:10:48. > :10:56.cattle, if I'm in, when I'm out, he will be watching. He always clued

:10:57. > :11:02.up. He still keeps you straight. Yes, he keeps me strict! Water as a

:11:03. > :11:07.family man at heart with 11 great great grandchildren and he will keep

:11:08. > :11:17.busy. I don't know what I'm going to do when I get old. I've no plans for

:11:18. > :11:19.retirement. No plans whatsoever. Healthy eating, you see!

:11:20. > :11:23.Plenty more to come in tonight's programme. Jeff's here with more on

:11:24. > :11:26.Tony Mowbray's departure from the Boro and who might replace him.

:11:27. > :11:33.Autumn leaves in all their glory. Collecting them could help

:11:34. > :11:37.scientists monitor climate change. And as the typically changeable

:11:38. > :11:42.autumn weather continues, join me later for your full forecast.

:11:43. > :11:45.A new musical based on the 1950s novel and film From Here To Eternity

:11:46. > :11:51.opens tomorrow night in London's West End. With a former Pop Idol

:11:52. > :11:54.star in the lead role, it marks the debut for Tyneside composer Stuart

:11:55. > :11:58.Brayson who wrote it. Theatre legend Sir Tim Rice was so impressed, he

:11:59. > :12:03.decided to stage it as his first new production in more than a decade.

:12:04. > :12:05.Just as Stuart's long`awaited dream is finally coming true, he's

:12:06. > :12:08.returned home to the north`east to share his success. Here's our

:12:09. > :12:23.entertainment reporter Sharuna Sagar.

:12:24. > :12:33.From Here To Eternity, an epic story of love and desire, particularly for

:12:34. > :12:36.Stuart Brayson. His musical adaptation of the James Jones novel

:12:37. > :12:40.is making its long awaited world premiere. Growing up in Gateshead in

:12:41. > :12:44.the '70s, with a burning ambition to make it big, he left at 18 for the

:12:45. > :12:50.bright lights of London. His journey from Windy Nook to the West End has

:12:51. > :12:54.been long and hard. My dream as a child was to be a pop star or a rock

:12:55. > :13:00.'n' roll star. And I pursued that with vigour in the 80s. The new

:13:01. > :13:06.romantic thing was happening and it was great, it was glamorous, it was

:13:07. > :13:16.colourful and fun. So you were in a band called Pop? Yes, it didn't go

:13:17. > :13:24.too well after a while. Secretly I will always wanted to do what I'm

:13:25. > :13:28.doing now. So when Pop went pop, Stuart started writing musical after

:13:29. > :13:33.musical. I've written a lot, but it's not easy to take things off the

:13:34. > :13:38.ground. I tend to take matters that are quite big, cost a lot of money

:13:39. > :13:41.and take a lot of time. It's now two decades on, and this is the one

:13:42. > :13:51.that's persuaded Sir Tim Rice to stage his first new show in 13

:13:52. > :13:56.years. I met him back in the days when I had my pop and. I'd always

:13:57. > :14:00.kept in contact with him and went I `` when I first started to write

:14:01. > :14:04.musicals, he was the first one I sent them to. When I gave him From

:14:05. > :14:09.Here To Eternity, he just was over the moon. He phoned me, and said,

:14:10. > :14:12.this is the one. It's fantastic! Unlike the classic film which was

:14:13. > :14:16.subject to 1950s censorship, this version of From Here To Eternity is

:14:17. > :14:25.much truer to the James Jones novel it's based on. We do have all of the

:14:26. > :14:34.things that maybe you don't expect in the West End. Nudity, swearing,

:14:35. > :14:37.violence. But, hey... Homosexuality? It's all in the!

:14:38. > :14:40.Well, that's musical theatre for you. It's the world premiere of the

:14:41. > :14:49.production at the Shaftesbury Theatre, and the perfect moment to

:14:50. > :14:52.return to his roots and reflect. I've had a lot of support and love

:14:53. > :14:58.and I've had a great family upbringing. I made a special effort

:14:59. > :15:01.to get here, literally days before the opening night. I really wanted

:15:02. > :15:05.to come here and get away from London, and get a taste of where I

:15:06. > :15:10.came from. It means a lot to me to be here. It's a full circle for me.

:15:11. > :15:15.It may have seemed like it's taken an eternity to get here for Stuart,

:15:16. > :15:18.but with the man behind some of the highest grossing musicals of all

:15:19. > :15:27.time by his side, it looks like this Geordie's boat has finally come in.

:15:28. > :15:32.Lovely dream to have come true. Now, if you're thinking about a

:15:33. > :15:35.lovely autumn walk this week, you could also help scientists looking

:15:36. > :15:38.at climate change. A project called Nature's Calendar wants people to

:15:39. > :15:41.get involved. Helpers have already established it's been a bumper year

:15:42. > :15:54.for berries, as Cathy Killick explains.

:15:55. > :16:05.It's that time of year when nature puts on a show. When the sun comes

:16:06. > :16:10.out, what a bonus. I'm walking to these words. The Woodland trust

:16:11. > :16:24.needs your help to monitor will the woods this winter. The woods are

:16:25. > :16:29.constantly changing with the seasons but were here to chart those

:16:30. > :16:37.changes. Time to do some work? We probably should. I've printed some

:16:38. > :16:46.survey forms from Nature's Calendar's website and now we are

:16:47. > :16:52.looking for berries. Fantastic crop of berries up there. Shall we fill

:16:53. > :16:59.in the survey? You could record a score for the amount of fruit,

:17:00. > :17:05.recorder three for that one, maybe. Great, let's see what else we can

:17:06. > :17:09.find. Survey results so far have revealed an abundance of berries. We

:17:10. > :17:13.are having the most bumper crop of berries we've had in ten years so

:17:14. > :17:21.it's a fantastic year to all kinds of berries. And it's just because

:17:22. > :17:24.we've had such a lovely summer. The data helps scientists monitor

:17:25. > :17:29.climate change but they need as much of it is possible, so they need your

:17:30. > :17:40.help gathering it. The woods are a pleasure, only enhanced by helping

:17:41. > :17:44.to save the planet, too. Hopefully be doing something like that at the

:17:45. > :17:48.weekend. First, we have a lot of support to get through.

:17:49. > :17:50.We've lost another football manager, I'm afraid.

:17:51. > :17:53.Tony Mowbray has become the region's third league manager to be sacked

:17:54. > :17:56.this season. After almost three years in charge at the Riverside,

:17:57. > :17:59.Middlesbrough announced his departure last night following

:18:00. > :18:05.defeat at the hands of bottom club Barnsley at the weekend. Dawn

:18:06. > :18:10.Thewlis reports. Tony Mowbray was the man every Boro

:18:11. > :18:12.fan wanted as manager. And if goodwill alone could have ensured

:18:13. > :18:16.his success, Middlesbrough would have been promoted in his first

:18:17. > :18:20.season in charge. He was a Boro supporter as a boy and a club legend

:18:21. > :18:23.as captain, leading them back to the top flight in 1988 just two years

:18:24. > :18:26.after the club almost folded. Unfortunately, he couldn't repeat

:18:27. > :18:29.the feat as boss. He had to contend with the mess left by Gordon

:18:30. > :18:33.Strachan's disastrous period in charge which lasted less than a year

:18:34. > :18:36.and saddled the club with a host of highly`paid Scottish imports.

:18:37. > :18:41.Mowbray had to try to get Boro promoted while also cutting the wage

:18:42. > :18:44.bill. Championship finishes of 12th, seventh and 16th followed with the

:18:45. > :18:50.team fading badly in the last two seasons after promotion form early

:18:51. > :18:53.on. Such is Mowbray's stature at the club, he was perhaps given more time

:18:54. > :19:03.to turn things around than others would have been. Even a week ago, he

:19:04. > :19:08.was confident of a positive outcome. Without any excuses, there have been

:19:09. > :19:13.a few new players, and things are starting to come together. Hopefully

:19:14. > :19:18.when it all clicks into gear, we will find a string of results which

:19:19. > :19:22.will prepare us `` propel cars. But the statistics for 2013 don't make

:19:23. > :19:25.happy reading. Of the 33 games played in the Championship so far,

:19:26. > :19:28.Middlesbrough have won five, drawn nine, and lost 19. The weekend's

:19:29. > :19:32.defeat to bottom side Barnsley was the final straw for Chairman Steve

:19:33. > :19:37.Gibson and the fans had run out of patience, too. I know he is well

:19:38. > :19:43.liked in Middlesbrough but he's not doing the business. Well, it was a

:19:44. > :19:48.long time coming. You know, sad to see him go, like, art at the same

:19:49. > :19:52.time, we weren't getting anywhere. The news is particularly hard to

:19:53. > :19:56.take for the man who was inspired to set up the Boro fanzine Fly Me To

:19:57. > :20:00.The Moon by Tony Mowbray. He is a hero to many of us from his playing

:20:01. > :20:06.days as captain. That continued to him being a manager, so you don't

:20:07. > :20:11.want that day to happen when you part company like that, and part of

:20:12. > :20:14.me never expected it to happen. Assistant Mark Venus is in charge

:20:15. > :20:15.until a permanent manager's appointed and Middlesbrough

:20:16. > :20:18.commentator Alistair Brownlee reckons there'll be no shortage of

:20:19. > :20:22.applications for the job. Middlesbrough will still be a very

:20:23. > :20:27.attractive proposition. They've got a ground that is Premier League

:20:28. > :20:31.standard, and if the new manager gets it right, they could get up to

:20:32. > :20:37.30,000 with a promotion push. And the chairman axe his managers. Tony

:20:38. > :20:41.Mowbray was at the club for three years, though. It is a very

:20:42. > :20:47.attractive proposition and there will be no shortage of CV is on his

:20:48. > :20:50.desk. Their next test is a six pointer against fellow strugglers

:20:51. > :20:53.Doncaster at the Riverside on Friday night. And manager or not, one Boro

:20:54. > :20:56.legend will be keeping his fingers crossed for three points.

:20:57. > :20:59.So, who's in line to be the next Middlesbrough manager? Well, these

:21:00. > :21:01.are some of the contenders, according to the bookies, the

:21:02. > :21:05.favourite is Tony Pulis, although it's been reported that chairman

:21:06. > :21:08.Steve Gibson isn't too keen on the former Stoke boss. Mark Venus, who

:21:09. > :21:11.has the job at the moment, is 11/2. Behind him come the likes of

:21:12. > :21:14.ex`Sunderland manager Martin O'Neill. Nigel Clough, whose dad,

:21:15. > :21:19.Brian was, of course, born in the town. Former England under`21 coach

:21:20. > :21:24.Stuart Pearce. And ex`Boro defender Colin Cooper, who's only just taken

:21:25. > :21:27.over at Hartlepool. There's more football action

:21:28. > :21:29.tonight. In League One Carlisle, who've signed Ghanaian international

:21:30. > :21:33.midfielder Prince Buaben, are away at MK Dons, while in League Two

:21:34. > :21:37.Hartlepool go in search of their fourth win in a row at home to

:21:38. > :21:40.Wimbledon and York are away at Chesterfield. He's not eligible for

:21:41. > :21:48.today's game, but they hope have international clearance by Thursday.

:21:49. > :21:51.Well, as we've been hearing, the Rugby League World Cup gets under

:21:52. > :21:55.way at Cardiff's Millennium Stadium on Saturday with England taking on

:21:56. > :21:58.Australia. Several Cumbrian players will be representing the home

:21:59. > :22:01.nations, and three of them could feature for Scotland at Workington's

:22:02. > :22:05.Derwent Park, which has been awarded two of the group matches, the first

:22:06. > :22:13.of which is a week tonight. Mark Tulip is there for us now.

:22:14. > :22:16.Well, you join me right in the middle of a civic reception put on

:22:17. > :22:19.by Allerdale Council for the Scotland squad, who'll play Tonga

:22:20. > :22:26.here a week tonight, and Italy a week on Sunday. These matches were

:22:27. > :22:29.originally due to have been played in Whitehaven but problems over the

:22:30. > :22:33.proposed venue led to a switch to Workington. Of course, West Cumbria

:22:34. > :22:37.already has a proud Rugby League heritage, even though it doesn't

:22:38. > :22:42.boast a Super League team and it was felt that hosting World Cup games

:22:43. > :22:46.here would help grow the sport. With me now are a couple of the Scotland

:22:47. > :22:58.players and Mark Fryer, who's on the Workington Town board and Allerdale

:22:59. > :23:02.Council. How big is this? It's huge. Huge economic clique, it gives an

:23:03. > :23:09.absolutely mega used for the sport, the foundation, it grows the

:23:10. > :23:15.foundation wider. We've got 40 schools, we've got 1700 kids coming,

:23:16. > :23:23.we've got kids practising a new anthem in the sports centre. It is

:23:24. > :23:30.fantastic. A few teething problems with the trains, other than that,

:23:31. > :23:39.how is it going? We don't do problems, we do solutions. There is

:23:40. > :23:45.thousands committed to the ticket sales. The community is right behind

:23:46. > :23:49.it. Of course, you are working to an `based, but you've checked in with

:23:50. > :23:52.the rest of your team`mates. You must be the man everybody looks to

:23:53. > :24:00.to find out where the best pubs are! Yes, that's good. There's a

:24:01. > :24:05.couple of lads from Workington to live here, so we have to show the

:24:06. > :24:10.lads around and look after them. And you are actually going for a brewery

:24:11. > :24:15.tour. I don't know how much beer we will be allowed to test, so we will

:24:16. > :24:19.see how that goes. In all seriousness, you did tell me that

:24:20. > :24:23.there's been quite a lot of training and you will be looking for a

:24:24. > :24:26.quarterfinal place. The quality of the squad is unbelievable. The best

:24:27. > :24:31.squad I've ever played on in my life. I've been learning something

:24:32. > :24:37.new everyday. And I the lads have as well. Have a great tournament. These

:24:38. > :24:45.lads haven't yet eaten, so it is back to you.

:24:46. > :24:46.That'll be very exciting. Did you hear about overpaid Scottish

:24:47. > :24:56.imports? Paul, the weather. Oh, you are a card!

:24:57. > :25:03.The showers have aligned themselves to give us some prolonged rain.

:25:04. > :25:10.Things start to improve tomorrow, the showers become less widespread.

:25:11. > :25:15.It will feel a little bit fresher tomorrow. Today, we had frequent

:25:16. > :25:19.showers, the main emphasis for us was western areas, those bright

:25:20. > :25:31.colours show where the heaviest showers world. Again, it is western

:25:32. > :25:35.areas that will see that the heavier showers. It is a mild night with

:25:36. > :25:43.strong winds, and temperatures in double figures. It should be about

:25:44. > :25:47.12. Tomorrow morning, a cloudy start foremost with outbreaks of rain.

:25:48. > :25:54.Again heaviest in the West. That more prolonged rain fizzles out

:25:55. > :25:56.replaced by sunny spells by the afternoon with some showers here and

:25:57. > :26:04.there, but largely drive for the afternoon. As I say, it will feel

:26:05. > :26:08.fresher, the winds strong and gusty, especially east of the Pennines.

:26:09. > :26:14.That westerly wind will make it feel cooler. Tomorrow will be more like

:26:15. > :26:20.13 or 14 at best through the afternoon. We get tomorrow out of

:26:21. > :26:24.the way, and that high pressure starts to build so we will have a

:26:25. > :26:31.cold night tomorrow night with a decent day on Thursday. Make most of

:26:32. > :26:38.it because it is wet and windy. Things quieten down again towards

:26:39. > :26:43.the weekend. For Cumbria, we get tomorrow showers, then it is dry and

:26:44. > :26:49.bread. 13 is cooler than it has been, wet and windy on Friday again.

:26:50. > :26:54.South`easterly winds the cup. Dry up mostly cloudy on Saturday. A similar

:26:55. > :27:01.picture for the north`east. A sunny picture on Thursday, drying up in

:27:02. > :27:11.time for the weekend. Paul, you are an asset, thank you.

:27:12. > :27:14.The former Conservative Prime Minister Sir John Major has called

:27:15. > :27:18.for a one`off profit tax on big an edge companies. The last person to

:27:19. > :27:22.be investigated over the leaking of details concerning the expenses of

:27:23. > :27:25.Cumbria's crime commission has been told she will not face prosecution.

:27:26. > :27:28.And that's it from us. In tomorrow's Look North, we'll be live in Paris

:27:29. > :27:32.as the detailed route of the Grand Depart is revealed. A special report

:27:33. > :27:36.from North Yorkshire as they prepare to welcome cycling's elite next

:27:37. > :27:40.year. That's going to be quite something.

:27:41. > :27:42.Fantastic. That is it for now. Goodbye.
