Hello, and welcome to Monday's Look North. | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
Jailed, the fake builders who cheated elderly | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
Meanwhile, police hunt three men who attacked a pensioner | :00:07. | :00:13. | |
and stole his life savings in a quiet County Durham village. | :00:14. | :00:16. | |
How one in five children in the north-east is brought up | :00:17. | :00:20. | |
in a home struggling to pay energy bills. | :00:21. | :00:22. | |
Why plans to re-introduce a wild cat into the countryside | :00:23. | :00:30. | |
In sport, we'll round-up all the weekend's football | :00:31. | :00:36. | |
And we'll bring you winners from around the world, | :00:37. | :00:40. | |
both with a pretty strong Cumbrian connection! | :00:41. | :00:54. | |
A judge called them despicable, a gang of fake builders who targeted | :00:55. | :00:57. | |
elderly people in our region, conning them out of | :00:58. | :01:00. | |
Another, an 87-year-widow, was pushed to the ground | :01:01. | :01:08. | |
In most cases, the gang took money without doing any work at all. | :01:09. | :01:16. | |
Tonight, three of them are in prison. | :01:17. | :01:18. | |
Well, our news correspondent Mark Denten is outside | :01:19. | :01:21. | |
The judge here today called it a despicable case of criminal conduct, | :01:22. | :01:40. | |
a gang of men who operated throughout our region targeting | :01:41. | :01:44. | |
deliberately vulnerable people, especially pensioners, and then | :01:45. | :01:49. | |
effectively robbing then, in some cases, of their life savings. | :01:50. | :01:53. | |
Far from being ashamed, they had celebrated, taking photos of one of | :01:54. | :01:59. | |
their victims to zest money, filming themselves celebrating. | :02:00. | :02:03. | |
The judge said they had a warped sense of achievement. Tonight, three | :02:04. | :02:04. | |
of them are locked up. Sunderland's suburbs, | :02:05. | :02:08. | |
many of the elderly One criminal gang called | :02:09. | :02:10. | |
it an opportunity. These men were part of it, | :02:11. | :02:12. | |
they posed as builders pressurising vulnerable | :02:13. | :02:15. | |
people into handing over thousands of pounds | :02:16. | :02:16. | |
for work that wasn't needed | :02:17. | :02:17. | |
and rarely carried out. Often using this red van, | :02:18. | :02:23. | |
they targeted pensioners including a former miner, | :02:24. | :02:31. | |
75-year-old George Metcalfe who, over a period of weeks, | :02:32. | :02:32. | |
withdrew ?30,000 from his bank account, | :02:33. | :02:34. | |
his The gang turned up here | :02:35. | :02:35. | |
on Newlands Avenue in Sunderland at the home | :02:36. | :02:39. | |
of Joan was knocked over | :02:40. | :02:43. | |
and fractured her hip A neighbour found her | :02:44. | :02:47. | |
but it was ten hours later. She had lain in this little | :02:48. | :02:51. | |
kitchen for ten hours screaming for help, and it was only | :02:52. | :02:55. | |
by chance somebody overheard her She died three months | :02:56. | :02:58. | |
later in hospital. Today, three members of the gang | :02:59. | :03:01. | |
were sent to prison, Lee Davidson for five years, | :03:02. | :03:10. | |
Philip Orton for three years and nine months, | :03:11. | :03:20. | |
The judge said the three men could not be held | :03:21. | :03:26. | |
criminally responsible for Mrs Barnett's death. | :03:27. | :03:27. | |
Another man, Levi Gales, 44, was charged with her | :03:28. | :03:29. | |
A statement by one of the neighbours with read out by a police officer | :03:30. | :03:34. | |
We've visited her in hospital but she seemed to have lost all interest | :03:35. | :03:48. | |
in life. One member of the gang is still on | :03:49. | :03:53. | |
the run, the judge adjourned his sentencing until he is recaptured. | :03:54. | :03:57. | |
Well, meanwhile, Durham Police are hunting three men who attacked | :03:58. | :03:59. | |
a pensioner and stole his life savings over the weekend. | :04:00. | :04:02. | |
It happened in the village of Coronation near Bishop Auckland. | :04:03. | :04:04. | |
Alison Freeman joins us from there now. | :04:05. | :04:06. | |
Police are calling this a horrific and terrifying attack on an elderly | :04:07. | :04:21. | |
man in his own home. Police were called after 8:30pm on | :04:22. | :04:28. | |
Saturday, the 77-year-old had gone to his coal shed when three men with | :04:29. | :04:33. | |
face coverings tackled him. They hit him over the head with a coal | :04:34. | :04:38. | |
shovel, dragged him inside, and searched his belongings. | :04:39. | :04:45. | |
They left with his life savings. The man did need hospital treatment but | :04:46. | :04:49. | |
fortunately his injuries were not serious. | :04:50. | :04:53. | |
We spoke to one of the victims's relatives who lives in the same | :04:54. | :04:55. | |
street and he described how quickly it all happened. | :04:56. | :05:00. | |
He said he didn't know, he said they were over the wall | :05:01. | :05:03. | |
The man is 77 years old with three young lads on top of him, | :05:04. | :05:09. | |
They took him to hospital and he stayed overnight. | :05:10. | :05:15. | |
I've lived here al lmy life and used to know every one in every house. | :05:16. | :05:21. | |
Do we know how much money was stolen? | :05:22. | :05:34. | |
Durham Police won't give the exact figure but say it is substantial, | :05:35. | :05:40. | |
his life savings, and are warning people not to keep large sums of | :05:41. | :05:45. | |
cash in their home. The officer in charge told us the impact it had had | :05:46. | :05:47. | |
on the victim. He is alone in his own | :05:48. | :05:49. | |
home, the one place you're supposed to feel safe | :05:50. | :05:52. | |
and comfortable in and this type of He's too old to put up much | :05:53. | :05:55. | |
of a fight and there were So, it's an absolutely | :05:56. | :06:00. | |
terrifying ordeal and something which no one | :06:01. | :06:03. | |
should have to go through. I've spoken to him every day | :06:04. | :06:05. | |
since this has taken place, several times, and he is just | :06:06. | :06:08. | |
devastated at the moment. He is just really struggling | :06:09. | :06:10. | |
to come to terms with it. He has a great family | :06:11. | :06:13. | |
behind him, though. The police say they need as much | :06:14. | :06:21. | |
information as possible to catch the three men responsible. | :06:22. | :06:22. | |
Back to you. A woman's died following a crash | :06:23. | :06:28. | |
involving a coach and a car It happened just off | :06:29. | :06:31. | |
the northbound side of the A19 The woman was taken | :06:32. | :06:36. | |
to the James Cook Hospital The driver of the coach, | :06:37. | :06:39. | |
which was empty at the time, You've probably heard of food banks, | :06:40. | :06:43. | |
but what about fuel banks? One-off payments are now being given | :06:44. | :06:51. | |
to families struggling One in five children | :06:52. | :06:53. | |
in the north-east is brought up in a home struggling | :06:54. | :06:57. | |
with fuel poverty. Kirsten O'Brien has been looking | :06:58. | :06:58. | |
at the problem for tonight's Jacqui and Michael Turnbull | :06:59. | :07:01. | |
live in Sacriston. Michael works as a security guard | :07:02. | :07:16. | |
at Durham University, and Jacqui is a student | :07:17. | :07:19. | |
and full time mum. Because you're trying | :07:20. | :07:25. | |
to provide for your family, and it just gets to the stage | :07:26. | :07:30. | |
where you just can't do it. How aware do you think | :07:31. | :07:33. | |
the kids are about it? Yes, my little girl definitely | :07:34. | :07:36. | |
does, my little boy I mean the first thing she says | :07:37. | :07:41. | |
to me in a morning is, Mummy, can we have toast today or do | :07:42. | :07:47. | |
we have to have cereal A four-year old shouldn't know | :07:48. | :07:50. | |
about that, they shouldn't 100,000 children are living in | :07:51. | :07:54. | |
the fuel poverty in the north-east. That's one in five of our children, | :07:55. | :08:01. | |
it's totally unacceptable. Fuel poverty is the inability to pay | :08:02. | :08:08. | |
for your fuel bills and having It's closely linked to general | :08:09. | :08:15. | |
poverty, but additionally there is inequality in the way | :08:16. | :08:18. | |
people are asked to In, Durham there is now a fuel bank | :08:19. | :08:20. | |
organised through the county's ?49 in the winter and ?30 | :08:21. | :08:27. | |
in the summer is available for people on pre- | :08:28. | :08:31. | |
payment meters who've run out It came about because we found that | :08:32. | :08:33. | |
people who were coming to the food bank weren't just in crisis | :08:34. | :08:39. | |
for food, they also In some cases, couldn't even cook | :08:40. | :08:41. | |
the food that we gave them We are able to put them forward | :08:42. | :08:47. | |
for a voucher so they've got fuel to heat and cook the food | :08:48. | :08:57. | |
that we give them. When they turned around and said, | :08:58. | :09:00. | |
we can give you ?49 for your electricity, | :09:01. | :09:02. | |
I cried and said, how do I pay it And they explained and they said, | :09:03. | :09:05. | |
no, it's a gift, you don't But in our region, the scheme just | :09:06. | :09:10. | |
operates in County Durham, That's because only one | :09:11. | :09:13. | |
energy supplier, NPower, is prepared to fund the vouchers, | :09:14. | :09:16. | |
leaving thousands of Kirsten O'Brien, BBC | :09:17. | :09:18. | |
Look North, Durham. And you can hear from Energy UK, | :09:19. | :09:25. | |
the organisation representing energy suppliers, on whether or not it's | :09:26. | :09:28. | |
prepared to roll out the scheme nationally, | :09:29. | :09:30. | |
on tonight's Inside out A leisure centre closed by council | :09:31. | :09:32. | |
cuts in the deprived West End of Newcastle could re-open | :09:33. | :09:43. | |
this summer and be run The Friends Of Elswick Pool have | :09:44. | :09:45. | |
presented a business plan to the city council and hope | :09:46. | :09:49. | |
to become a successful trust. It's only been closed for 15 months, | :09:50. | :09:52. | |
but green algae already clouds However, a community group plans | :09:53. | :10:00. | |
to clean up the pool and re-open it by the end of the summer, | :10:01. | :10:08. | |
if the city council There is so much about the pool | :10:09. | :10:10. | |
that was really great before. So, we had the steam room, sauna, | :10:11. | :10:14. | |
swimming lessons, women only, but there is so much more | :10:15. | :10:16. | |
that the building could be. When we did community consultation, | :10:17. | :10:22. | |
people overwhelmingly said that they wanted things | :10:23. | :10:27. | |
like a soft-play area, So, we are really listening | :10:28. | :10:29. | |
to the community, and we want to be In an area with few | :10:30. | :10:34. | |
amenities, the pool and gym are hugely important for local | :10:35. | :10:44. | |
people's health and well-being. My son has had | :10:45. | :10:46. | |
swimming lessons here. I'd love my daughter | :10:47. | :10:48. | |
to have swimming lessons. It is not feasible to | :10:49. | :10:50. | |
get to any other pool. For people with disabilities, | :10:51. | :11:00. | |
it is a good pool. For young people with young | :11:01. | :11:04. | |
families, excellent. That is why I feel it is a great | :11:05. | :11:06. | |
loss to the community if we can't The man who has helped community | :11:07. | :11:11. | |
groups in both Jesmond and Fenham to run their own pools is now | :11:12. | :11:15. | |
advising the Elswick group. And he sees a bright | :11:16. | :11:18. | |
future for the site. It's a very, very good | :11:19. | :11:20. | |
building, Elswick Pool. And if I think of the ones I have | :11:21. | :11:22. | |
looked at around the country, It's a modern pool, has | :11:23. | :11:25. | |
fantastic facilities, but it needs a little bit of work | :11:26. | :11:28. | |
to get it back, before we can open Newcastle City Council says it's | :11:29. | :11:32. | |
worked with the Friends for a year now, and is committed to the pool's | :11:33. | :11:36. | |
reopening, but only when a long-term Adrian Pitches, BBC | :11:37. | :11:40. | |
Look North, Elswick. An MP wants a plan to re-introduce | :11:41. | :11:47. | |
a wild cat into Northumberland to be scrapped, because he says local | :11:48. | :11:50. | |
people don't want it to happen. Hexham's Guy Opperman says a survey | :11:51. | :11:53. | |
he carried out suggests nine in ten people in the Kielder area | :11:54. | :11:56. | |
are opposed to the lynx But those behind the plan insist it | :11:57. | :11:59. | |
does have local backing. Here's our political | :12:00. | :12:03. | |
editor Richard Moss. For solitude, a winter's day | :12:04. | :12:15. | |
in Kielder is ideal. How about shareing these forests | :12:16. | :12:19. | |
with the Eurasian lynx? It has been extinct in Britain | :12:20. | :12:22. | |
since the Middle Ages but a wildlife group wants to release at least ten | :12:23. | :12:25. | |
of them here. If I was to encounter | :12:26. | :12:28. | |
a lynx now, number one, What I'd be seeing is a cat 70 | :12:29. | :12:30. | |
centimetres high to its shoulders, one metre in length, | :12:31. | :12:36. | |
weighing in at 20-40 kilos, a quarter to a half | :12:37. | :12:38. | |
of my body weight. Lynx Trust UK which is behind | :12:39. | :12:44. | |
the plans say the cats will control Local farmers feel they might | :12:45. | :12:47. | |
also fancy a nibble I cannot see the fact that they will | :12:48. | :12:50. | |
live entirely on deer. If there is a lamb a little bit slow | :12:51. | :12:58. | |
getting up onto its feet, You can't tell me that they aren't | :12:59. | :13:01. | |
going to say, I'm not It's a hard enough job eking | :13:02. | :13:05. | |
a living out of this landscape without the added problem | :13:06. | :13:17. | |
of another predator. The trust's stats suggest | :13:18. | :13:19. | |
only a handful of lambs will be taken each year, | :13:20. | :13:21. | |
and compensation is promised. A local MP says a survey he has done | :13:22. | :13:25. | |
shows the lynx will not be welcome. I went to the 400 residents | :13:26. | :13:29. | |
of the villages of the local area, and had a response from 96 houses, | :13:30. | :13:32. | |
a 25% response is actually very good Out of 96, 93 were | :13:33. | :13:36. | |
unequivocally against. There are enthusiasts, Michael Brown | :13:37. | :13:38. | |
runs Kielder's only pub. He said the lynx effect is something | :13:39. | :13:46. | |
the businesses desperately need. It is a dying area, | :13:47. | :13:53. | |
it's time for change. It will bring tourists | :13:54. | :13:55. | |
into rural areas with Curiosity will get the best | :13:56. | :13:57. | |
of people and will want to see them. I promise I didn't set this up, | :13:58. | :14:04. | |
propping up the bar is someone who has seen the lynx's | :14:05. | :14:07. | |
North American cousin. Canadian forester Zachary | :14:08. | :14:10. | |
is in Kielder to plant trees. To see one is rare, six | :14:11. | :14:24. | |
years back in Canada, and this past summer, | :14:25. | :14:27. | |
I've seen one. Not this dangerous and wild | :14:28. | :14:28. | |
creature, that would be the wolf. If you introduced wolves, | :14:29. | :14:32. | |
I'd be more worried. Those behind the plans insist | :14:33. | :14:34. | |
they are winning support well beyond the odd Canadian, | :14:35. | :14:36. | |
especially among the businesses. I have seen the survey done by Guy | :14:37. | :14:38. | |
and it is farcical, highly biased, the preamble is factually | :14:39. | :14:44. | |
inaccurate and misleading. Guy is in danger of damaging local | :14:45. | :14:48. | |
businesses and employment The lynx are a huge driver | :14:49. | :14:50. | |
for ecotourism, almost every business we spoke to in Kielder | :14:51. | :14:54. | |
is massively supportive Guy Opperman stands by his survey | :14:55. | :14:56. | |
but the trust hopes to get a license After more than 1,000 years away, | :14:57. | :15:05. | |
there are still divisions over whether this a cat Northumberland | :15:06. | :15:09. | |
wants to welcome back. Richard Morse, BBC | :15:10. | :15:11. | |
Look North, Kielder. Now, it was built in 1770 to produce | :15:12. | :15:19. | |
flour for families in York. Now, 247 years later, | :15:20. | :15:22. | |
Yorkshire's only working windmill And the team of people | :15:23. | :15:24. | |
who've restored the mill But they need more volunteers, | :15:25. | :15:28. | |
as Phil Connell reports. It was once one of hundreds of mills | :15:29. | :15:36. | |
in Yorkshire but today it is the only one left | :15:37. | :15:39. | |
that is working, found in the middle of Windmill Rise, | :15:40. | :15:42. | |
a residential street in York. Lots of orders this week, | :15:43. | :15:44. | |
we will have to do some milling. For a small team of volunteers, | :15:45. | :15:50. | |
the windmill has become Before they arrived, | :15:51. | :15:52. | |
it was derelict. In 2012 it was restored | :15:53. | :16:01. | |
to its former glory thanks to ten There were times we thought | :16:02. | :16:03. | |
we would never get that work done Yes, there were some real | :16:04. | :16:10. | |
heart in mouth periods. The mill now makes and sells around | :16:11. | :16:21. | |
30 bags of flour a week. To secure its long-term future | :16:22. | :16:24. | |
an appeal is being made A chance to learn skills that | :16:25. | :16:27. | |
have been passed down We have done the hard work | :16:28. | :16:30. | |
by getting the mill restored, but it is almost harder to keep it | :16:31. | :16:41. | |
in a decent condition. It is one thing getting the money | :16:42. | :16:44. | |
to do it in the first place but continuing the income is crucial | :16:45. | :16:48. | |
and volunteers are key. We would love anybody who has | :16:49. | :16:50. | |
the time and physical energy. It is quite a physical | :16:51. | :16:53. | |
job, to get involved. And take over from us old ones | :16:54. | :16:55. | |
who are beginning to see the end For anyone interested | :16:56. | :16:58. | |
in volunteering, there are two open days at the mill this weekend, | :16:59. | :17:01. | |
a chance to learn something Newcastle back on top | :17:02. | :17:04. | |
of the Championship, a win for Hartlepool's caretaker | :17:05. | :17:32. | |
boss, but more misery for our two As if they weren't short of enough | :17:33. | :17:35. | |
players, Sunderland defender Papy Djilobodji is facing | :17:36. | :17:45. | |
a four-match ban, having today been charged with violent | :17:46. | :17:47. | |
conduct for swiping out the referee had a good view, it was | :17:48. | :18:03. | |
an aggressive shove, I still think he will be banned. | :18:04. | :18:05. | |
He has already been sent off this season. | :18:06. | :18:12. | |
Victor Annatjie be has picked up a knee injury. Just back from another | :18:13. | :18:18. | |
injury. Opening that ligament, that will be | :18:19. | :18:22. | |
if you weeks. And this one as well. | :18:23. | :18:27. | |
A direct hit, not happy. Even before kick-off, | :18:28. | :18:29. | |
the Black Cats were back at the foot of the table | :18:30. | :18:31. | |
following Swansea's any great | :18:32. | :18:33. | |
response at the Hawthorns. And there was some pretty awful | :18:34. | :18:37. | |
defending for both goals. 11 players back here. Any set piece, | :18:38. | :18:49. | |
you have to look to win the first context. | :18:50. | :18:52. | |
Third, fourth, back in the net. What about this from the left back, | :18:53. | :18:56. | |
forcing a throw in. Good pressure, then you need to | :18:57. | :19:00. | |
react but he is facing the wrong place, ball still in play. West Brom | :19:01. | :19:06. | |
attacked the space left. A good ball into the box. They are unfortunate, | :19:07. | :19:15. | |
2-0 after 36 minutes, a mountain to climb. | :19:16. | :19:16. | |
David Moyes was not impressed. We are doing everything | :19:17. | :19:19. | |
we can to eradicate it but it is a disease | :19:20. | :19:23. | |
at the moment. I take responsibility | :19:24. | :19:25. | |
for that, I pick the That is what we have to tackle | :19:26. | :19:27. | |
at this moment in time. We have to hope that | :19:28. | :19:31. | |
our turn for results Well, like Sunderland, Middlesbrough | :19:32. | :19:33. | |
are in a bit of a rut right now, without a Premier League win | :19:34. | :19:39. | |
since before Christmas. And the home defeat to West Ham saw | :19:40. | :19:41. | |
head coach Aitor Karanka criticising fans as they urged the team | :19:42. | :19:44. | |
to attack more in the later stages. Always dangerous to have a go | :19:45. | :19:47. | |
at your own supporters, Steve? Newly promoted side, four points | :19:48. | :19:59. | |
clear of the relegation sign -- so, but the fans are unhappy with their | :20:00. | :20:04. | |
style of play. Andy Carroll getting a couple of | :20:05. | :20:10. | |
goals. You can't give him a run and leave him unmarked. Middlesbrough | :20:11. | :20:13. | |
got themselves back in the game, a good goal. | :20:14. | :20:19. | |
They have success in wide areas. But not getting on the end of it. | :20:20. | :20:23. | |
Apparently, we have heard this. And the Northern Echo reporting | :20:24. | :20:27. | |
chairman Steve Gibson has turned down a ?50 million offer | :20:28. | :20:29. | |
from a Chinese consortium The money he has put in, I think he | :20:30. | :20:39. | |
is entitled to more than that, and with his emotional attachment. | :20:40. | :20:49. | |
Patrick Bamford came on. But the manager wasn't happy after the game. | :20:50. | :20:52. | |
The last minutes, we weren't in the way that the crowd demanded. | :20:53. | :20:54. | |
Even last season, there were moments, we didn't score, | :20:55. | :21:01. | |
we didn't create one chance playing in that style. | :21:02. | :21:04. | |
Because we must decide to win more games. | :21:05. | :21:13. | |
A bit of leapfrogging going on in the Championship. | :21:14. | :21:16. | |
Brighton reclaiming top spot on Friday night, | :21:17. | :21:17. | |
before Newcastle beat bottom club Rotherham to retake | :21:18. | :21:19. | |
And, while it turned into a bit of a rout, | :21:20. | :21:23. | |
the Millers didn't make it easy for the Magpies, particularly | :21:24. | :21:25. | |
They nearly took the lead here, fortunate with that. | :21:26. | :21:41. | |
Clark came in and made an incredible save, straight off the training | :21:42. | :21:43. | |
ground. Darren Murphy is the man of the | :21:44. | :21:48. | |
moment. Great vision. Very difficult to turn with your back to goal. | :21:49. | :21:54. | |
After that, Newcastle ran away with it. They have had if you wobble is, | :21:55. | :21:59. | |
but they are strong enough to get through. | :22:00. | :22:02. | |
There was in a lot of consistency from the packs to catch them. | :22:03. | :22:08. | |
Shelvey dictating the plate, finding space. Good run from Ritchie. | :22:09. | :22:16. | |
A comfortable win. Brighton go back to the top of the championship if | :22:17. | :22:18. | |
they beat Cardiff. In League Two, caretaker boss | :22:19. | :22:24. | |
Sam Collins guided Hartlepool to victory over Stevenage, | :22:25. | :22:26. | |
as new boss Dave Jones Is Jones the right man | :22:27. | :22:28. | |
for the Pools job, Steve? I worked for Dave Jones at Scott | :22:29. | :22:39. | |
Port, a good appointment -- at Stockport. He is a good appointment. | :22:40. | :22:55. | |
Jason Kennedy here. It is not happening for Carlisle. | :22:56. | :23:11. | |
Two points from four games. Thank youth that can see you again | :23:12. | :23:13. | |
next week. -- thanking you for that. And Durham have signed South African | :23:14. | :23:20. | |
batsman Stephen Cook for the first But Ben Stokes was once again | :23:21. | :23:24. | |
England's hero as they beat India And he laid some demons | :23:25. | :23:28. | |
to rest in the process. Stokes hit an unbeaten 57 off just | :23:29. | :23:32. | |
39 balls and took three wickets, including key man Virat Kohli, | :23:33. | :23:35. | |
in a man of the match performance. A contrast to his nightmare | :23:36. | :23:38. | |
at Eden Gardens nine months ago, when Carlos Brathwaite hit him | :23:39. | :23:41. | |
for four successive sixes in the final over, | :23:42. | :23:43. | |
as the West Indies beat England There was a bit of banter | :23:44. | :23:45. | |
flying around leading up Yes, it's nice to come back | :23:46. | :23:52. | |
here and get rid of any of the bad It was another game | :23:53. | :23:58. | |
of cricket to focus on, In basketball, Newcastle Eagles | :23:59. | :24:01. | |
have been knocked off Ahead of the home game | :24:02. | :24:05. | |
with Worcester Wolves, they paraded the BBL Cup they'd won | :24:06. | :24:08. | |
five days earlier. But in a repeat of last | :24:09. | :24:10. | |
year's result, Worcester spoiled the party with a shock win | :24:11. | :24:13. | |
by 112 points to 103, as Leicester Riders pushed | :24:14. | :24:15. | |
the Eagles into second place. But we'll end with a winner, | :24:16. | :24:18. | |
because M Sport, run by Malcolm Wilson and based | :24:19. | :24:20. | |
in Cockermouth, yesterday won the world famous Monte Carlo Rally, | :24:21. | :24:22. | |
in the snow with Sebastien Ogier A huge achievement | :24:23. | :24:25. | |
for the Cumbrian team. And M Sport's first | :24:26. | :24:28. | |
World Rally win since 2012. Fantastic stuff, a bit of snow | :24:29. | :24:44. | |
there. We've heard the warning for really | :24:45. | :24:56. | |
severe cold. There is scope for some optimism. | :24:57. | :25:02. | |
Some optimistic weather pictures. A bit of frost in the Lake District | :25:03. | :25:10. | |
but sunshine as well the second picture, will leave Spaniel | :25:11. | :25:15. | |
delighted to see the sun rising. And a bit of optimism in the third | :25:16. | :25:19. | |
picture, as the snowdrops begin to appear in North Yorkshire. | :25:20. | :25:25. | |
It will get colder. A cold night tonight but not everywhere will see | :25:26. | :25:31. | |
a frost. Some cloud drifting in from the North west overnight. The | :25:32. | :25:35. | |
further south and east, the cold and you will be with dense and freezing | :25:36. | :25:40. | |
fog patches. Temperatures by the end of the night, subzero in those | :25:41. | :25:45. | |
colder clearer areas, just above freezing further north and west | :25:46. | :25:50. | |
where the breeze picks up as well. Tomorrow morning, that early frost | :25:51. | :25:54. | |
and fog will slowly lift and clear to be replaced by these cloudy | :25:55. | :26:00. | |
skies. Not as much blue sky as today, the classic enough in the | :26:01. | :26:04. | |
north and west Apache and light rain. Further east, the drier it | :26:05. | :26:11. | |
will stay. A range of textures after a frosty start. Only tomorrow | :26:12. | :26:17. | |
afternoon -- a range of temperatures. Eight Celsius in | :26:18. | :26:23. | |
Carlisle. The winds, a noticeable southerly breeze tomorrow. The winds | :26:24. | :26:29. | |
will be a feature of the weather. You can see the lines tightening up, | :26:30. | :26:33. | |
fairly windy conditions through the middle part of the week. Thursday, | :26:34. | :26:38. | |
we picked up a South easterly from the continent bringing in some | :26:39. | :26:44. | |
really cold air, bitterly cold. By the end of the week, the winds | :26:45. | :26:47. | |
swinging background to a south-westerly. -- Swinging back | :26:48. | :26:56. | |
around. Wednesday, temperatures up to eight Celsius but cooler in the | :26:57. | :27:01. | |
breeze. Thursday, temperatures much cooler in the east. | :27:02. | :27:11. | |
Wrap up warm. I was just checking, those pictures of that rally, it was | :27:12. | :27:15. | |
