earlier this evening. There will be more on that and any | :00:00. | :00:11. | |
Last week he was a star on the pitch when Sunderland took on Chelsea. | :00:12. | :00:16. | |
Last night he was a guest of honour at the BBC's | :00:17. | :00:18. | |
Sports Personality of the Year event. | :00:19. | :00:21. | |
Bradley Lowery is the County Durham boy with a rare form of cancer who's | :00:22. | :00:24. | |
received lorryloads of Christmas cards from wellwishers. | :00:25. | :00:27. | |
The five-year-old from Blackhall was diagnosed | :00:28. | :00:30. | |
Our first report is from Ian Reeve reports. | :00:31. | :00:37. | |
Bradley Lowery's story has seen an outpouring of affection. | :00:38. | :00:40. | |
The five-year-old with a rare cancer, a | :00:41. | :00:44. | |
guest at last week's Sunderland match and today more evidence of how | :00:45. | :00:47. | |
Tens of thousands of cards and parcels | :00:48. | :00:53. | |
passing through Hartlepool's sorting office. | :00:54. | :00:57. | |
A wave of warmth destined for Bradley. | :00:58. | :00:59. | |
Bradley has 200,000 and it has added to the | :01:00. | :01:11. | |
It has been really good and he has reached everybody's | :01:12. | :01:23. | |
We have had them from all over the world, from China, | :01:24. | :01:31. | |
On top of the cards, ?850,000 has been raised. | :01:32. | :01:33. | |
Its original aim was to send Bradley to America for treatment. | :01:34. | :01:37. | |
That may yet happen but the New Year will see | :01:38. | :01:40. | |
him start a new course of treatment here in the UK and if his tumour | :01:41. | :01:44. | |
shrinks, he could yet be America bound. | :01:45. | :01:48. | |
For now, it is a Christmas like any other for Bradley. | :01:49. | :01:52. | |
Born up on a compassion that transcends the | :01:53. | :01:54. | |
A message willing him to be in festive good health and beyond. | :01:55. | :02:10. | |
Thank you everybody for the cards and presents. Merry Christmas. | :02:11. | :02:25. | |
Olivia and Georgia have written countless songs together but Bradley | :02:26. | :02:28. | |
has inspired them to write an extra special tune for Christmas. | :02:29. | :02:38. | |
Christmas Eve, stands next to the fireplace. Somehow it just all came | :02:39. | :02:51. | |
together and it felt right. It was about Bradley and super heroes. He | :02:52. | :03:00. | |
inspires us. He's so brave. And the sisters will perform their song for | :03:01. | :03:05. | |
Bradley live at the Middleton Grange shopping Centre on Thursday between | :03:06. | :03:19. | |
12 and one. # because you are the definition of a superhero. When it | :03:20. | :03:23. | |
came into the charge we were so excited. The nation is behind badly. | :03:24. | :03:28. | |
We could get him to number one if everybody downloaded it. | :03:29. | :03:30. | |
Newcastle University says it will investigate the death | :03:31. | :03:32. | |
of a 20-year-old student who died after drinking too much alcohol. | :03:33. | :03:36. | |
Ed Farmer, who was in his first term at the university, | :03:37. | :03:39. | |
died in the Royal Victoria Infirmary on Wednesday. | :03:40. | :03:44. | |
Police say he arrived at the hospital in a life-threatening | :03:45. | :03:47. | |
condition after drinking an excessive amount of alcohol. | :03:48. | :03:50. | |
The University says it's saddened by the news and says once | :03:51. | :03:53. | |
the Coroner establishes the facts, it'll take any appropriate action. | :03:54. | :03:57. | |
Four people are being held by police investigating the murder | :03:58. | :04:00. | |
He's been named as 29-year-old Mark Shaw. | :04:01. | :04:06. | |
His body was discovered in a house in Grange Villa | :04:07. | :04:09. | |
near Chester-le-Street on Saturday night. | :04:10. | :04:13. | |
Four people in their late teens and early twenties were arrested | :04:14. | :04:15. | |
in connection with his murder, all of whom knew the victim. | :04:16. | :04:20. | |
Today's the last day of consultation on drastic changes to health | :04:21. | :04:23. | |
More than three thousand people have had their say on controversial | :04:24. | :04:27. | |
proposals which could see a downgrading of services | :04:28. | :04:29. | |
at the West Cumberland Hospital, and changes to the running | :04:30. | :04:33. | |
It's been a year of firey meetings, public protests and fear | :04:34. | :04:40. | |
about the future of health care in Cumbria. | :04:41. | :04:46. | |
This has to be everybody's number one priority in fighting those | :04:47. | :04:49. | |
changes because it is going to cost lives. | :04:50. | :04:53. | |
This document is at the centre of the debate. | :04:54. | :04:56. | |
With a focus on making services safer, most of the preferred options | :04:57. | :05:01. | |
would see a downgrading of services at the West Cumberland hospital. | :05:02. | :05:05. | |
Services like childrens and maternity, meaning some mums | :05:06. | :05:07. | |
could have to travel 40 plus miles in labour. | :05:08. | :05:15. | |
with the loss of inpatient beds suggested in Alston, | :05:16. | :05:26. | |
We are in dire circumstances and our lives matter | :05:27. | :05:31. | |
as much as anybody in | :05:32. | :05:32. | |
Penrith or Carlisle or Manchester or London. | :05:33. | :05:35. | |
Those in charge say they've listened to the views expressed | :05:36. | :05:38. | |
they insist decisions haven't been made and the changes discussed | :05:39. | :05:40. | |
Instead we're told this is about making sure services | :05:41. | :05:45. | |
The public consultation hasn't been a referendum, | :05:46. | :05:51. | |
There are some underlying problems with the | :05:52. | :05:57. | |
The inability to recruit specialist staff. | :05:58. | :06:01. | |
That problem is not going to go away. | :06:02. | :06:06. | |
It is a national problem affecting lots of | :06:07. | :06:08. | |
parts of the country and we have to look | :06:09. | :06:10. | |
services as well as the immediate opinion of the public. | :06:11. | :06:14. | |
online with postal submissions being accepted until Friday. | :06:15. | :06:17. | |
The decisions will be announced in March next year. | :06:18. | :06:20. | |
The bells at York Minster will remain silent this Christmas, | :06:21. | :06:27. | |
despite last ditch attempts by the church authorities to recruit | :06:28. | :06:30. | |
The thirty bell ringers at the Minster were sacked | :06:31. | :06:36. | |
in October and told they had to re-apply for their jobs - | :06:37. | :06:39. | |
over concerns about safeguarding issues. | :06:40. | :06:41. | |
The bells have been heard since 1361. | :06:42. | :06:50. | |
In October, the Dean stopped its 30 volunteer workers from | :06:51. | :06:54. | |
working over concerns about safeguarding and vetting procedures. | :06:55. | :06:59. | |
The BBC understands bell-ringers from elsewhere | :07:00. | :07:01. | |
were asked to stand in, and that finding trained | :07:02. | :07:05. | |
It depends on the willingness of other | :07:06. | :07:09. | |
ringers to come forward when they have their | :07:10. | :07:12. | |
own responsibilities to | :07:13. | :07:14. | |
fulfil at their own churches and how the Minster approaches it and | :07:15. | :07:18. | |
whether they are willing to get some of their own ringers back in as part | :07:19. | :07:22. | |
One experienced bell-ringer told look | :07:23. | :07:31. | |
North it is likely anybody would take up what he described as a | :07:32. | :07:34. | |
They are not commenting about the latest developments in | :07:35. | :07:42. | |
they would be prepared to come in and ring the bells if the Minster | :07:43. | :07:50. | |
Unless there is a quick resolution to the dispute, it seems the | :07:51. | :08:24. | |
Minster's famous appeal will not be heard over the city for the first | :08:25. | :08:27. | |
That's it from me, and it's time for our Christmas Week weather | :08:28. | :08:34. | |
Less than a week to go until the big day and the question on everyone's | :08:35. | :08:40. | |
lips is whether we have a white Christmas or not. | :08:41. | :08:42. | |
We'll get to that, but this week is looking unsettled. | :08:43. | :08:49. | |
It's going to be a breezy weaker times. | :08:50. | :08:52. | |
We are going to see some spells of rain. | :08:53. | :08:55. | |
Overnight tonight it is cloudy and dull. | :08:56. | :08:58. | |
We start tomorrow morning on a fairly chilly note with no | :08:59. | :09:01. | |
That cloud is going to break up and we see Sunny spells, | :09:02. | :09:10. | |
A strong southerly winds picking up so it will turn | :09:11. | :09:19. | |
As we go through Tuesday and into Wednesday we start seeing | :09:20. | :09:25. | |
the cloud thickening from the West ahead of a weather front | :09:26. | :09:27. | |
which is going to bring smart bricks of rain overnight. | :09:28. | :09:30. | |
By the time we get to Wednesday that should have cleared away. | :09:31. | :09:35. | |
Temperatures dropping down to around four or 5 degrees. | :09:36. | :09:39. | |
So for Wednesday this is how things are looking. | :09:40. | :09:42. | |
You can see those isobars are still squeezed together. | :09:43. | :09:45. | |
So Wednesday look something like this, we start off on a breezy | :09:46. | :09:50. | |
note, but we have some bright sunny spells. | :09:51. | :09:54. | |
Between those sunny spells we are going to see a fair | :09:55. | :09:57. | |
Some of the showers could be on the side with wintry | :09:58. | :10:01. | |
Further into the week, Wednesday and Thursday, | :10:02. | :10:05. | |
once we've got those fronts out of the way we see a ridge of high | :10:06. | :10:10. | |
Thursday looks dry and settled before the next area of low | :10:11. | :10:19. | |
Some showery rain, but things brighten up later on in the day. | :10:20. | :10:26. | |
Winds will be lighter and temperatures around | :10:27. | :10:29. | |
Friday, things look windier and more unsettled. | :10:30. | :10:35. | |
Lots of cloud to start with, rain is going to be | :10:36. | :10:38. | |
There will be plenty of rain and it is going to be very windy. | :10:39. | :10:57. | |
Stay tuned for the forecast over the next few days. | :10:58. | :11:02. | |
The rest of the weekend, some rain around, windy, but with dry and | :11:03. | :11:04. | |
bright spells. Heavy weather is brewing, it will | :11:05. | :11:16. | |
not reach us just yet. It will take a good few days before the stormy | :11:17. | :11:21. | |
weather reaches us. At the moment, it's just potential, nothing is | :11:22. | :11:25. | |
certain, but it will be different to what we've had over | :11:26. | :11:26. |
