:00:08. > :00:28.Lisa Burbidge was killed along with 29 other British

:00:29. > :00:31.people in 2015. Today, the judge at the inquests into their deaths in

:00:32. > :00:32.London, ruled they were unlawfully killed.

:00:33. > :00:35.Lisa's best friend Jen McDine survived by locking herself in a

:00:36. > :00:38.toilet as the killer roamed their hotel. She's been speaking to Peter

:00:39. > :01:00.she was very loyal and hard-working. Her family were like. When the

:01:01. > :01:07.shooting started, Lisa and her friend Jen on the sun lounges. I

:01:08. > :01:13.thought for the sun lounge and hid behind it for some stupid reason.

:01:14. > :01:16.Then I looked up and I saw him. Unlike its said, we have to get out

:01:17. > :01:21.of here, we are getting shot at. That was the last time I saw. You

:01:22. > :01:27.just ran. It was just blind panic. I've heard people say, blind panic,

:01:28. > :01:30.but I have never actually done it. It's just, you are not seeing

:01:31. > :01:42.anybody, you are just running and not looking where you are going.

:01:43. > :01:46.There was gunfire in the corridor. There was a corridor behind, and it

:01:47. > :01:49.was loud, and that was shortly after getting into the toilet. Then it

:01:50. > :01:55.went quite quiet for a while. Then, went quite quiet for a while. Then,

:01:56. > :02:03.somebody came in and tried to get in the the toilet. Tried to open it.

:02:04. > :02:09.Didn't say anything, then went out, then there was no noise at all. Lisa

:02:10. > :02:13.had hidden in an office by the indoor pool, that was where she was

:02:14. > :02:16.cornered. It was just luck for anybody who survived, because he was

:02:17. > :02:25.firing indiscriminately across the areas we were in. He went to see if

:02:26. > :02:30.we were in there. So it was just really luck that, who survived and

:02:31. > :02:38.who didn't. Jen and other friends had to go to the mortuary to

:02:39. > :02:46.identify Lisa's body. By the time we went back in and out to try and ID

:02:47. > :02:54.home, we finally did that about three o'clock in the morning. Lisa

:02:55. > :02:57.is remembered here in Whickham. One of the focus of the inquest was

:02:58. > :03:03.whether the tourists were given a proper warning about the risks in

:03:04. > :03:09.Tunisia. Her friend, Jen, said there were not. If there was a risk of

:03:10. > :03:12.terrorism and kidnapping on the terrorism and kidnapping on the

:03:13. > :03:17.government website, we wouldn't have gone. How do you remember Lisa as

:03:18. > :03:20.personal? As a lovely friend. We had some good times on holiday. She was

:03:21. > :03:25.just a genuine person. Well, Lisa's inquest and that

:03:26. > :03:28.of the 29 other British victims certainly helped to clarify

:03:29. > :03:30.many of the horrific But legal questions about possible

:03:31. > :03:34.compensation still remain As our reporter Jim Knight

:03:35. > :03:47.told me earlier. Many of the families

:03:48. > :03:49.were anxiously waiting to hear the coroners' findings today -

:03:50. > :03:52.with a view to taking some kind of legal action to get compensation

:03:53. > :03:55.for the loss of their loved ones. But though Judge Nicholas

:03:56. > :03:57.Loraine-Smith concluded that all 38 victims had been "unlawfully killed"

:03:58. > :04:00.- he rejected any finding of neglect Though highly critical

:04:01. > :04:08.of the immediate response of the Tunisian police,

:04:09. > :04:10.which he described as "at best shambolic and at worst cowardly",

:04:11. > :04:13.he fell short of criticising He ruled that the law

:04:14. > :04:19.regarding "neglect" could not be applied to tourists who had

:04:20. > :04:24."voluntarily chosen The only thing that might have made

:04:25. > :04:28.any difference, he said, was if the hotel guards had been

:04:29. > :04:32.armed - but given the gun law in Tunisia - he said this

:04:33. > :04:35.was not a realistic option. Even so, it seems 22 families

:04:36. > :04:37.have already announced their intention to take

:04:38. > :04:40.civil proceedings against the travel firm TUI,

:04:41. > :04:42.and i've had it confirmed tonight that Lisa Burbidge's

:04:43. > :04:50.family is one of them. A nine-year-old boy's in a crticial

:04:51. > :04:54.condition after he was hit It happened on Marina Way at around

:04:55. > :04:59.a quarter to six and off-duty police officers gave him first aid before

:05:00. > :05:01.ambulance crews arrived. He was taken by air ambulance

:05:02. > :05:04.to James Cook Hospital Police say they think

:05:05. > :05:08.he was with several other A senior executive of Nissan says

:05:09. > :05:14.the company may "adjust" its business in the UK,

:05:15. > :05:17.depending on the outcome of Brexit. The car manufacturer announced

:05:18. > :05:22.in October that it would build two new models at Sunderland

:05:23. > :05:25.after receiving Government assurances that EU withdrawal

:05:26. > :05:27.would not affect But senior vice-president

:05:28. > :05:33.Colin Lawther has told MPs that Nissan would "constantly

:05:34. > :05:38.review" its decision. A charity for the homeless says

:05:39. > :05:42.hundreds of young people could be CentrePoint says it'll have to close

:05:43. > :05:48.all its hostels on Wearside because Sunderland Council plans

:05:49. > :05:51.to end its ?900,000 Sunderland - City of Culture

:05:52. > :06:03.candidate for 2021 - a place largely without the grim

:06:04. > :06:06.hallmark of other large cities - But actually, 600 young people were

:06:07. > :06:20.homeless and needed help here sleeping on friends' sofas,

:06:21. > :06:23.moving from house to house. Night after night,

:06:24. > :06:24.they are hugely vulnerable. And, until recently, Tom,

:06:25. > :06:27.who's just 17, was one of them. You need to think, how am

:06:28. > :06:31.I going to keep myself safe? And that is difficult,

:06:32. > :06:35.even for an adult, never mind us. For the last two months Tom's been

:06:36. > :06:38.living at a hostel famously supported

:06:39. > :06:45.by Princess Diana. Prince William is now also a patron

:06:46. > :06:47.and visited the charity We're working with 180

:06:48. > :06:54.people and that number By the end of this year

:06:55. > :07:02.there will be young people sleeping Across the city, as nine-month-old

:07:07. > :07:11.his mum, Abby, who's also been homeless, reflects on how

:07:12. > :07:15.CentrePoint's helped her too. In all honesty, I would

:07:16. > :07:29.not have Caden today. Previously to CentrePoint I was

:07:30. > :07:32.off the rails, I just would drink I just would not have

:07:33. > :07:35.been very nice. But CentrePoint now faces

:07:36. > :07:37.losing all its council That means all its centres

:07:38. > :07:43.in the city will close. We're talking about the risk

:07:44. > :07:45.of sexual exploitation, People are being exploited

:07:46. > :07:49.in this city, as we speak. Sunderland Council, which needs

:07:50. > :07:51.to save ?46 million from its budget in the next financial year, says

:07:52. > :07:54.it's setting up a new service to help homeless people

:07:55. > :07:56.and stop issues escalating, while moving away from hostel

:07:57. > :07:58.or refuge-based support towards getting people back

:07:59. > :08:06.into their own accomodation. Onto football now, and Newcastle

:08:07. > :08:08.United took a giant stride towards promotion tonight

:08:09. > :08:10.after they beat Brighton led for much of the game

:08:11. > :08:13.after an early penalty But in the 81st minute Mohamed Diame

:08:14. > :08:19.equalised for the Magpies And with just minutes to go, Perez

:08:20. > :08:27.put Newcastle in the lead Also tonight in League 2... And in

:08:28. > :08:47.the National League... Recipes last baked by women

:08:48. > :08:50.during the Civil War era have been given a new lease of life by school

:08:51. > :08:53.pupils from Northumberland. The students from Bedlingtonshire

:08:54. > :08:59.Community High School have been given unique access to recipe

:09:00. > :09:01.books from the Special Collections

:09:02. > :09:03.Library at Newcastle University. The archive programme aims to bring

:09:04. > :09:05.historical documents to life for around 400 pupils

:09:06. > :09:13.across the north east. I want kids to enjoy making food.

:09:14. > :09:22.That's the most important thing. I want them to look back at the

:09:23. > :09:25.history of it and see that the foods we eat today were around in the 17th

:09:26. > :09:29.century and earlier and that they are still relevant for them today

:09:30. > :09:35.and still access a ball for everybody. That's it from me this

:09:36. > :09:38.evening. Time to take a look at the weather with Paul. Good evening.

:09:39. > :09:45.Some chilly conditions to come tonight. A mostly dry picture with a

:09:46. > :09:48.broken cloud and fairly light winds. A touch of Frost and some icy

:09:49. > :09:55.patches as well. Temperatures hovering around freezing in that

:09:56. > :10:01.light, westerly breeze. Mostly fine and dry start in eastern areas

:10:02. > :10:07.tomorrow. Some showers the West, wintry over the Cumbrian Fells and

:10:08. > :10:10.the North Pennines, for a time. Hanging onto that sunshine in the

:10:11. > :10:14.east in the afternoon with temperatures climbing back up to

:10:15. > :10:21.around eight Celsius. In that westerly breeze, remaining fairly

:10:22. > :10:24.light. A fairly quiet start to the month of March but there are some

:10:25. > :10:29.weather fronts lingering over the next few days, bringing rain, with

:10:30. > :10:33.the wind is picking up, so some unsettled spells as we head through

:10:34. > :10:39.the latter part of the working week. Tomorrow, mostly dry with some

:10:40. > :10:44.bright spells. A similar picture for Thursday, with temperatures up to

:10:45. > :10:48.around seven Celsius at best. The wind and the cloud will be picking

:10:49. > :10:53.up and we will see more rain at times by Friday, as we head into the

:10:54. > :10:57.weekend. Similar temperatures but with those stronger winds, it will

:10:58. > :11:09.feel colder if you're out and about. You can keep up-to-date with the

:11:10. > :11:10.Good evening. We are about to head into March, the days are
