:00:24. > :00:25.the city three weeks ago. After his body was found his girlfriend,
:00:26. > :00:28.Rachel Peatfield, issued a statement, on behalf of his family,
:00:29. > :00:35.paying tribute to a wonderftl character who was kind and gentle.
:00:36. > :00:37.Meanwhile, the family of missing County Durham teacher Mark Bushnell
:00:38. > :00:41.are still waiting for forensic officers to put a name to the body
:00:42. > :00:44.found near the spot where hd vanished. Police searching for Mr

:00:55. > :00:58.A coastline battered by the wind and waves. Yesterday near these cliffs
:00:59. > :01:02.at Blackhall Rocks, a walker found the body of a middle`aged m`n, which
:01:03. > :01:07.had apparently been washed tp on the shore. It is two weeks sincd the

:01:17. > :01:21.painstaking process to identify the body, which may have been in the
:01:22. > :01:29.water here for some time. As well as DNA testing, they say they lay need
:01:30. > :01:35.to use dental records. Quitd often in these circumstances, we live
:01:36. > :01:39.you're in forensic techniquds such as fingerprints and DNA. I would
:01:40. > :01:43.like to thank the public because there has been an overwhelmhng
:01:44. > :01:49.amount of information coming in Clearly a lot of people werd
:01:50. > :01:53.concerned and also our thoughts are with the family as well. It is
:01:54. > :01:59.difficult terrain to search over. It is very windy as you can probably
:02:00. > :02:02.see, so not the easiest of circumstances. Police are staying in
:02:03. > :02:06.close contact with Mr Bushndll's wife and three sons.
:02:07. > :02:09.The police are investigating the cause of a fire that destroxed a

:02:14. > :02:17.Meadowfield, broke out at about six o'clock this morning. The h`ll,
:02:18. > :02:19.which is attached to St John's Church, was about to undergo a
:02:20. > :02:29.programme of extensive refurbishment. The proposal was to
:02:30. > :02:37.try to have it up and running as a community hall. We had actu`lly been
:02:38. > :02:42.given donations from a local supermarket to help towards the
:02:43. > :02:44.funding. A lot of disappointment and disbelief.
:02:45. > :02:47.A North Tyneside woman is urging people to make copies of prdcious
:02:48. > :02:50.digital photographs after a laptop containing irreplaceable pictures of
:02:51. > :02:53.her dead father was stolen. Ali s father died only recently, `nd Ali,
:02:54. > :03:00.although a keen photographer, says she had no back`ups of the hmages of
:03:01. > :03:04.him. It was last weekend when Alh, her
:03:05. > :03:10.partner and two small children were asleep upstairs in their Tyneside
:03:11. > :03:19.home. They didn't hear the hntruders break in. And in the morning, Ali's
:03:20. > :03:30.laptop was gone. On it were hundreds of photos of her father, her only
:03:31. > :03:37.copies. My dad was terminally ill for a long time so I was kedn to
:03:38. > :03:40.take as many photos as posshble and he passed away in November last
:03:41. > :03:47.year. Ali had bought a back`up hard drive the day before. Obviotsly
:03:48. > :03:51.meaning to do the back`up and the prints and everything, and H just
:03:52. > :03:55.haven't done it yet and now I haven't got that chance, thdy have
:03:56. > :03:58.just gone. Of all those pictures and home videos she had of her dad, Ali
:03:59. > :04:08.now has just three prints to remember him by.
:04:09. > :04:13.I imagine many people watchhng this will have most of their dightal
:04:14. > :04:18.pictures only on a computer. What I would say to those people as for
:04:19. > :04:26.goodness sake back`up your photos, it takes an hour out of your life.
:04:27. > :04:31.They made everything to me. I don't care how we get them or where they
:04:32. > :04:34.come from, who they are handed into, just please get my photos b`ck.
:04:35. > :04:37.Well, Ali now has a burglar alarm but not those precious photos. If
:04:38. > :04:41.you have them, you know what the decent thing to do is.
:04:42. > :04:43.Onto Rugby League now, and two matches in the Championship this
:04:44. > :04:46.afternoon for our West Cumbrian clubs. And it finished Whitdhaven
