Good evening. One of the youngest babies to undergo open heart surgery

:00:14.:00:17.

has died two months short of her second birthday. By the age of five

:00:18.:00:20.

months, Jessica Muse from Newcastle had spent her whole life in

:00:21.:00:23.

hospital. She'd had nine operations, two lots of open heart surgery ` the

:00:24.:00:27.

first within just 30 minutes of her being born. She survived against the

:00:28.:00:30.

odds and was allowed home for her first Christmas. But around six

:00:31.:00:34.

weeks ago, she was rushed back to the Freeman hospital where she died

:00:35.:00:41.

yesterday. A car has crashed into a busy

:00:42.:00:44.

supermarket in York. Witnesses say they saw the vehicle ` which was

:00:45.:00:48.

being driven by an elderly woman ` reversing at speed into a glass

:00:49.:00:51.

window at the Waitrose store at Foss Island. Nobody inside the store was

:00:52.:00:55.

hurt. Police say the driver was taken to hospital with minor

:00:56.:01:01.

injuries. One of the region's most popular

:01:02.:01:03.

tourist attractions has been celebrating its fifth birthday

:01:04.:01:06.

today. The Great North Museum in Newcastle marked the occasion with a

:01:07.:01:09.

party amongst the weird and wonderful exhibits. Stuart Whincup

:01:10.:01:13.

reports. Celebrating a special day. There

:01:14.:01:19.

were free treats for the first 150 children through the doors.

:01:20.:01:26.

Originally known as the Hancock, the Great North Museum re`opened in 2009

:01:27.:01:29.

` incorporating artefacts from three of the city's existing museums. And

:01:30.:01:36.

since the ?26 million refit, nearly three million people have visited. I

:01:37.:01:42.

think the museum has a special place in the hearts of the people of

:01:43.:01:49.

Newcastle. Most of our visits are repeat visits. The life`size T`Rex

:01:50.:01:52.

dinosaur replica skeleton remains one of the museum's favourites. But

:01:53.:01:56.

its success ` staff say ` is its ability to provide something for

:01:57.:01:59.

everyone, from under fives to students, to academics carrying out

:02:00.:02:08.

research. The museums are a great asset ` on campus, and staff and

:02:09.:02:15.

students really benefit. The museum has received more than 20 awards and

:02:16.:02:18.

commendations since its reopening, including making the short list for

:02:19.:02:29.

the European Museum of the Year. It's described as one of the

:02:30.:02:32.

highlights of the British dance calendar. The annual festival of hip

:02:33.:02:36.

hop comes to Whitley Bay tonight and features a group of extraordinary

:02:37.:02:39.

street dancers who've all overcome a range of disabilities. Phil Connell

:02:40.:02:50.

has been to rehearsals. Cool moves and a cool beat ` hip hop

:02:51.:02:55.

is a form of dance from the streets. Tonight, this company brings it's

:02:56.:03:03.

festival to the Playhouse. `` brings its festival. One of the acts is a

:03:04.:03:07.

group of disabled dancers from all over the world. It's a play on

:03:08.:03:17.

words. In hip hop, what's bad is good. Sick means amazing and

:03:18.:03:24.

incredible. At rehearsals, children got the chance to polish their

:03:25.:03:36.

moves! It's become a growing craze! I like the showmanship. The

:03:37.:03:44.

possibility to explore adult ideas. It's not childish. It's an art form

:03:45.:03:55.

a lot of adults are doing now. Tonight's performance will move and

:03:56.:03:56.

inspire. Looks like is going to be a typical
