:00:00. > :00:00.forces and protestors. That is all from BBC News. It is goodbye
:00:00. > :00:07.Welcome to Thursday's Look North. In tonight's headlines: A major
:00:08. > :00:11.development in the Nikki Allan murder case. Police make an arrest.
:00:12. > :00:14.We'll have the latest. Campaigners lose their battle to stop cuts in
:00:15. > :00:20.maternity and children's services at a North Yorks hospital. Pothole
:00:21. > :00:30.promise. A council leader makes an ambitious pledge to rid his county
:00:31. > :00:36.of every dreaded hole in the road. We have whittled it down this year
:00:37. > :00:38.considerably and we are content that we will eliminate potholes by the
:00:39. > :00:41.end of June. And we're live at Shildon's railway museum to see the
:00:42. > :00:46.mighty steam engines that have brought thousands flocking to the
:00:47. > :00:50.town. In sport, the man who led his side to three Wembley appearances in
:00:51. > :00:54.a row has left his job. And ten days before Sunderland's grand day out in
:00:55. > :01:07.the capital we take a trip back in time to their last major Cup final.
:01:08. > :01:13.Police have arrested a 43`year`old man on suspicion of the murder of a
:01:14. > :01:18.seven year old girl more than 21 years ago. Nikki Allan was found
:01:19. > :01:22.dead in the Wear Garth area of Sunderland in 1992. Since then her
:01:23. > :01:26.mother has fought a long battle to keep the investigation alive and a
:01:27. > :01:37.renewed appeal was made on the BBC's Crimewatch programme in September.
:01:38. > :01:41.Sharuna Sagar reports. The Nikki Allan murder is a case
:01:42. > :01:47.which has never gone away for Northumbria Police. The
:01:48. > :01:58.circumstances of her death appalled officers and the public alike. A
:01:59. > :02:01.seven` year`old girl, playing near her home in the Wear Garth area of
:02:02. > :02:04.Sunderland, found dead in the then derelict Old Exchange building. It
:02:05. > :02:10.has been redeveloped into a vagrant but back then it was used by
:02:11. > :02:16.vagrants and drug addicts. Police want to speak to anybody who was
:02:17. > :02:21.around here in those days to help them with the case. There was an
:02:22. > :02:26.arrest and trial but the defendant was cleared. The investigation has
:02:27. > :02:41.continued over the decades but for her mother, the impact is still raw.
:02:42. > :02:48.I have lost that much weight, I am on drugs from the doctor. I still
:02:49. > :02:52.have that strength to carry on. Crimewatch stepped in to give a
:02:53. > :02:58.further impotence to the efforts of the crime team. It was hoped a
:02:59. > :03:04.reconstruction of events might jog a memory, to provide the vital snippet
:03:05. > :03:10.of information. This evening, as a man arrested on suspicion of murder
:03:11. > :03:20.is bailed pending enquiries, the fresh call for witnesses is as
:03:21. > :03:23.important as ever. A controversial plan that would see big changes to
:03:24. > :03:25.how children's and maternity services are provided at the
:03:26. > :03:29.Friarage Hospital in Northallerton IS to go ahead. Under the proposals
:03:30. > :03:32.published today all sick children who need overnight care and mothers
:03:33. > :03:37.having high risk births would have to go elsewhere. Doctors say it's
:03:38. > :03:40.the only way to provide sustainable care ` while campaigners believe it
:03:41. > :03:50.could threaten patient safety. Jamie Coulson reports. In the peaceful
:03:51. > :03:54.Yorkshire Dales village, there is anger brewing. These mothers have
:03:55. > :03:59.relied on the Friarage Hospital in the past and are upset about plans
:04:00. > :04:05.to seek children's and maternity services scaled back stop I had my
:04:06. > :04:09.third child, the cord was around his neck and he was blue. If we had to
:04:10. > :04:15.have gone to James Cook, the chances are he would not be here. It is a
:04:16. > :04:21.long way to the Friarage anyway and to know you might have to go
:04:22. > :04:26.further, it is a scary situation. Today, NHS managers confirmed that
:04:27. > :04:31.they want a maternity unit run by midwives, not doctors. High risk
:04:32. > :04:35.births would go elsewhere. There will be an end to overnight
:04:36. > :04:42.children's care, although an assessment unit would run from 10am
:04:43. > :04:47.until 10pm. The plans have led to protests but
:04:48. > :04:52.doctors leaders say current services are not sustainable with too few
:04:53. > :05:02.patients to support the doctors needed to provide said care. Here,
:05:03. > :05:07.many people fear what they see as the loss of some services at their
:05:08. > :05:11.local hospital. They got it wrong. They were not prepared to listen to
:05:12. > :05:16.anything other than their own solution. Their solution came
:05:17. > :05:21.forward two years ago and has not been changed. They have not done the
:05:22. > :05:29.legwork necessary to find alternatives. The hospital serves
:05:30. > :05:33.120,000 people, but, under the changes, high risk births and very
:05:34. > :05:39.sick children would have to go to Middlesbrough, Darlington,
:05:40. > :05:43.Harrogate, or, York. Evidence tells us children should be looked after
:05:44. > :05:49.in big units, when they are poorly, with well`trained staff who do
:05:50. > :05:53.amazing stuff every day. When people think that the Friarage is a
:05:54. > :05:57.world`class service, you are saying it is not? I think it has been, but
:05:58. > :06:04.other services have improved and increase standards. People would be
:06:05. > :06:08.better off going elsewhere? Yes. They hope to implement the changes
:06:09. > :06:17.by October, but campaigners say they will fight on.
:06:18. > :06:23.A man accused of biting off a large part of a television actor's ear
:06:24. > :06:31.says he apologised to police for his behaviour. Philip McGilvray said he
:06:32. > :06:36.lost count how much he'd drunk and could not recall the details of the
:06:37. > :06:39.incident involving Clive Mantle. The jury heard interviews recorded
:06:40. > :06:43.following the incident. Philip McGilvray and Alan French, from
:06:44. > :06:50.Scotland, deny wounding with intent. The trial continues. Hartlepool
:06:51. > :06:53.building firm Yuill Homes has gone into administration. The house
:06:54. > :06:56.builder, which was originally established in 1927, employs more
:06:57. > :06:59.than 50 staff. It's currently working on a single development in
:07:00. > :07:03.Brierton Lane and owns a number of other sites for future building. The
:07:04. > :07:07.company will continue to trade while efforts are made to try and find a
:07:08. > :07:10.buyer. Thousands of them have been plaguing Northumberland's drivers
:07:11. > :07:13.for years. Damaging cars and causing disruption. But today the leader of
:07:14. > :07:17.the County Council pledged that each and every pothole on the county's
:07:18. > :07:22.roads will be filled by the end of June. It's an ambitious goal ` some
:07:23. > :07:30.say unachievable. But, as Richard Moss reports, he insists it can be
:07:31. > :07:38.done. Suspension`wrecking, tyre` bursting, anger`inducing. Potholes
:07:39. > :07:42.are part and parcel of driving in Northumberland. But if you believe
:07:43. > :07:51.the leader of the County Council, not for much longer. He says they'll
:07:52. > :07:57.all be gone by the end of June. When we got to the administration we have
:07:58. > :08:01.35,000 potholes. We whittled it down to just over 12000 and believe over
:08:02. > :08:07.the next 18 weeks, by adding the additional money from the insurance
:08:08. > :08:13.fund, we can eliminate them by that time. The council says it can make
:08:14. > :08:16.that pledge because it has invested in kit like this jet patcher which
:08:17. > :08:21.can fill holes quickly. And because it's putting a further ?600,000 in
:08:22. > :08:25.to the roads budget. We have seen potholes repaired only for the rain
:08:26. > :08:28.and frost to get in and they reappear later. The council said
:08:29. > :08:31.repairs like this should last years, rather than weeks. But some are
:08:32. > :08:34.deeply sceptical. They say Northumberland's roads need ?100
:08:35. > :08:44.million of radical surgery, not a quick fix. As the Conservative group
:08:45. > :08:49.on the council, we could not believe when he came out with those words
:08:50. > :08:54.the other day. What it does portray is the lack of understanding of the
:08:55. > :09:01.need for long`term investment in our roads, just sticking a few potholed
:09:02. > :09:10.plasters will not fix the problem. To think the problems can be fixed
:09:11. > :09:16.by June is cloud cuckoo land. Will you have a day of celebration when
:09:17. > :09:19.you fill in the last one? We will introduce a meter on the web page
:09:20. > :09:24.and people will see the numbers drop. I am sure they will put a
:09:25. > :09:28.smiley face at the bottom when they are done. And the challenge to
:09:29. > :09:38.achieve that smiley face ` fill the small matter of 100 holes a day for
:09:39. > :09:44.the next four months. God luck to them.
:09:45. > :09:48.`` good luck. It was five years ago today that Sir
:09:49. > :09:51.Bobby Robson opened the clinical drug trials centre paid for by his
:09:52. > :09:54.foundation at the Northern Centre for Cancer Care in Newcastle. Sadly,
:09:55. > :09:57.Sir Bobby died of melanoma just over six months later but the drugs
:09:58. > :10:00.developed at the Freeman Hospital centre are now treating thousands of
:10:01. > :10:03.patients every year. Adrian Pitches reports. Two days after his 76th
:10:04. > :10:06.birthday, Sir Bobby Robson celebrated the opening of the
:10:07. > :10:14.clinical trials centre named after him in the company of the great and
:10:15. > :10:17.good of English football. Look what we have at the reception desk. His
:10:18. > :10:27.oncologist can point to five years of success since that day. We have
:10:28. > :10:32.put 3000 new patients onto studies, which is thousands of patient visits
:10:33. > :10:37.across the trials. We have had a lot of new trials open and we have new
:10:38. > :10:43.drugs where we have done research and they are licensed and given to
:10:44. > :10:46.patients as standard treatments. Theresa was diagnosed with terminal
:10:47. > :10:50.pancreatic cancer a year and a half ago but her drug trial has halted
:10:51. > :10:55.the cancer and she cannot praise the trials centre and its staff too
:10:56. > :11:01.highly. There is no fear at all coming to the unit. You could not be
:11:02. > :11:09.treated any better than if you are members of your own family. `` if
:11:10. > :11:14.they are. The cancer is still in the pancreas, it has not spread. It is
:11:15. > :11:21.not in my bones. They pulled out all the stops. That is amazing. But the
:11:22. > :11:24.bulk of the work at the cancer care centre is treatment by radio therapy
:11:25. > :11:27.and chemotherapy. This newly installed machine can dramatically
:11:28. > :11:33.reduce the number of radiation treatments by intelligent targeting
:11:34. > :11:37.of tumours. We have just gone clinical with the first of two new
:11:38. > :11:45.machines and each has cost around ?3 million. It is going to be able to
:11:46. > :11:49.deliver radiotherapy more accurately, quicker, so that there
:11:50. > :11:53.are patients who come for seven and a half weeks of radiotherapy, when
:11:54. > :11:58.we start with this service in the next few months, they will be
:11:59. > :12:05.treated with five treatments rather than 37. The Northern Centre for
:12:06. > :12:09.Cancer care now treats 5000 new patients a year from across the
:12:10. > :12:13.North East and Cumbria will stop with state`of`the`art facilities
:12:14. > :12:17.that are arguably the best in the UK, it is no exaggeration to say we
:12:18. > :12:21.are fortunate to have the centre in the region.
:12:22. > :12:25.Plenty more to come in tonight's programme. It's just over a week to
:12:26. > :12:30.go until Sunderland fans are Wembley bound. A trip down memory lane
:12:31. > :12:39.coming up. Stopping the brain drain. A scheme to keep Cumbria's young
:12:40. > :12:43.talent in the county. It has been a mild stay, but what does the rest of
:12:44. > :12:54.the week have installed? I will have the details in the weather forecast.
:12:55. > :12:59.It is known as the brain drain with talented youngsters leaving the
:13:00. > :13:02.region for jobs in London, but a new scheme aims to entice the best young
:13:03. > :13:09.brains to consider a career in the county. The Dream Placement
:13:10. > :13:12.programme has been created by the leadership of the performance with
:13:13. > :13:19.16 to 18`year`olds being put through a rigorous process to be selected. A
:13:20. > :13:22.step into the world of international industry. The Dream Placement scheme
:13:23. > :13:26.has been set up to show teenagers what it's like to work at a high
:13:27. > :13:29.level in some of Cumbria's top businesses. Iggesund paperboard mill
:13:30. > :13:32.in West Cumbria selected two young students from the county to shadow
:13:33. > :13:42.senior managers in every department on the Mill floor through to board
:13:43. > :13:48.meetings. I would like to be up at the top. I want to tell people what
:13:49. > :13:53.to do, I want to be in charge, I'd like that position. Has this giving
:13:54. > :13:57.you a flavour of that? Definitely. I have seen how the managers work here
:13:58. > :14:01.and I like it. Iggesund is one of Europe's leading manufacturers in
:14:02. > :14:07.its field, but it can still find it hard to get the brightest local
:14:08. > :14:13.talent through the doors. Is it hard to keep people? I would say so,
:14:14. > :14:17.definitely. The brightest students want to go to the best universities
:14:18. > :14:23.and it is difficult to get them back. But, schemes like this are
:14:24. > :14:28.opening their eyes to think maybe there are more opportunities here.
:14:29. > :14:34.It is a great place to work and hopefully they will think that. 14
:14:35. > :14:38.businesses initially agreed to take one student each. But the standard
:14:39. > :14:40.was so high they took more and 33 won their week`long placement.
:14:41. > :14:44.Youngsters went through a rigorous selection process. Robyn was chosen
:14:45. > :14:52.by Wigton's Innovia films. She's seen how this world leader operates
:14:53. > :15:01.at all levels. Yesterday I went to research and development, which took
:15:02. > :15:06.my interest. I would like to make a discovery, which sounds heroic, but
:15:07. > :15:11.that is my dream. It has just occurred to me now, without
:15:12. > :15:17.realising, you take a fancy to a particular area. The point of the
:15:18. > :15:22.scheme is to let people know there are good jobs to be had in industry
:15:23. > :15:28.in West Cumbria and, if they choose to stay, they could be part of the
:15:29. > :15:31.international market. There are massive opportunities with
:15:32. > :15:36.international companies across West Cumbria and we do not shout loud
:15:37. > :15:41.enough. The Dream Placement allows us to link future bright young
:15:42. > :15:47.things with job opportunities and if they like it, they will stay, if not
:15:48. > :15:50.they will go away. The key thing is to give them opportunity. The scheme
:15:51. > :15:54.is now looking for more young people to take part next year. And Alison
:15:55. > :16:02.joins me now. So what else are these businesses doing to make young
:16:03. > :16:06.Cumbrians stay? This is a way of showing them they can get up high in
:16:07. > :16:11.a company without studying for a degree first. Many firms offer the
:16:12. > :16:15.chance to study while they work for them on a day release. This can save
:16:16. > :16:22.students tens of thousands of pounds in fees, while still offering the
:16:23. > :16:26.chance to progress. There is another dimension. It lets them see what
:16:27. > :16:32.career they might like to follow and that difficult decision is important
:16:33. > :16:40.when they think about spending thousands of pounds on costly
:16:41. > :16:48.further education. The railway museum in Shildon has been packed
:16:49. > :16:51.for half`term week. An exhibition of six mighty A4 Pacific class steam
:16:52. > :16:54.locomotives has attracted over 60,000 people. As we reported on
:16:55. > :16:58.Look North yesterday it has caused some fairly major traffic problems `
:16:59. > :17:05.but as the week goes on it's been great news for the local economy.
:17:06. > :17:10.Jonathan Swingler is there. It is an amazing sight. If you have
:17:11. > :17:14.not been before you have until Sunday. This could be the last time
:17:15. > :17:22.you see the six altogether. The traffic has been chock a block. I
:17:23. > :17:28.spoke to people who had a long journey to get here. The museum
:17:29. > :17:35.predicted 68,000 visitors over nine days. They went through that target
:17:36. > :17:40.yesterday. Entry is free. A train enthusiasts from China landed at
:17:41. > :17:44.Heathrow this morning. I did know it was a unique gathering. I thought it
:17:45. > :17:52.was a once`in`a`lifetime opportunity. John is happy. He sold
:17:53. > :17:56.his painting. A gentleman came from Ipswich for the exhibition and saw
:17:57. > :18:01.it. His father drove the engine and wanted it for his collection. The
:18:02. > :18:06.owners of this pub are amazed people are coming from all over with one
:18:07. > :18:10.customer coming in from America. Somebody came from Los Angeles?
:18:11. > :18:16.Yes, he flew in and out the next day, just to see the trains. Did he
:18:17. > :18:22.come in here? He did, half an hour, we had to push it through and out
:18:23. > :18:27.and we did. We generally have 100 people on Thursday, and at the
:18:28. > :18:33.moment it is up to 300 people. It is fantastic. Visitor numbers today did
:18:34. > :18:39.not disappoint with people queueing for 45 minutes to stand on the
:18:40. > :18:45.footplate. It is fantastic there is a gathering and seeing the young
:18:46. > :18:48.children, as well. It is great. Very unusual and probably the last time
:18:49. > :18:56.they are together. They are here for another three days and staff can
:18:57. > :19:01.expect to be busy. Joining me now is the manager, George. This could be
:19:02. > :19:07.the last time we see them together? I do not think we will see it again
:19:08. > :19:12.in our lifetime. Amazing in terms of visitor numbers, are you surprised?
:19:13. > :19:21.They exceeded expectations. How many over the last few days? By the end
:19:22. > :19:25.of the day over 70,000. We predicted 68,000 for the nine days and so we
:19:26. > :19:33.have exceeded the target. The staff must be tired. Aching feet and sore
:19:34. > :19:36.legs, but everybody enjoys it. You have until Sunday to visit. In terms
:19:37. > :19:42.of the best time to come along, when is the best time? Come early, or
:19:43. > :19:49.after 3pm, there is less traffic them. What happens to the trains?
:19:50. > :19:55.They disperse. The American locomotives stay here and the mall
:19:56. > :20:01.aren't goes back to York and operational locomotives go out to
:20:02. > :20:06.earn a living `` Mallard. I like the dominion of Canada, that is my
:20:07. > :20:13.favourite, because we painted it here. People can get lovely images.
:20:14. > :20:19.Yes, it is a lovely night for photographing locomotives. Well
:20:20. > :20:24.worth a visit and taking the children this weekend.
:20:25. > :20:28.Even I can appreciate they are beautiful machines, and I am no
:20:29. > :20:35.expert. I saw them on Sunday, very pleased I went.
:20:36. > :20:38.The Sunderland head coach was an interested observer as Saturday's
:20:39. > :20:40.opponents Arsenal lost the home leg of their Champions League tie
:20:41. > :20:44.against holders Bayern Munich last night. Gus Poyet says if there are
:20:45. > :20:48.any tired legs in the Arsenal camp at the Emirates this weekend, his
:20:49. > :20:50.side will need to take advantage. Perhaps surprisingly, though, Poyet
:20:51. > :20:53.thinks this toughest of away matches will be perfect preparation for next
:20:54. > :20:59.Sunday's League Cup final at Wembley. It will be a massive test.
:21:00. > :21:04.As well I think there is no better game to prepare for the final. The
:21:05. > :21:15.stadium is similar. The trip is the same. The pitch is in `` is
:21:16. > :21:16.incredibly big. There are similarities and it is good
:21:17. > :21:20.preparation. It's 16 years since Sunderland were
:21:21. > :21:24.last at Wembley ` 22 since they last appeared in a major Cup final. That
:21:25. > :21:27.was in 1992, when a side that had underachieved in the Second
:21:28. > :21:30.Division, that season met First Division Liverpool in an era just
:21:31. > :21:33.before the launch of the cash`rich Premier League. Andrew Hartley looks
:21:34. > :21:45.back at a day when Wembley turned red. There was no stopping
:21:46. > :21:49.Sunderland. The town had just become a city. And the football club was
:21:50. > :22:03.going to Wembley with a song. It was May 1992. # Ain't no stopping us
:22:04. > :22:12.now! It was May, 1992. Wearside was beside itself with excitement. Pay
:22:13. > :22:15.will score? I will, tonight. Sunderland, then a struggling team
:22:16. > :22:20.in the second tier of English football, were in the FA Cup final.
:22:21. > :22:23.The Wearsiders were rank outsiders. The opposition were one of the
:22:24. > :22:29.giants of World football ` Liverpool. And it was a day when a
