An American surgeon has told a Teesside family that he believes | :00:12. | :00:17. | |
he's destroyed 90% of their son's rare brain tumour. | :00:18. | :00:25. | |
Five-year-old Finley Ingles underwent groundbreaking | :00:26. | :00:34. | |
Laser Ablation Surgery in Houston yesterday after a fundraising | :00:35. | :00:36. | |
campaign saw his family raise ?200,000 to pay for the treatment. | :00:37. | :00:39. | |

he destroyed 90% of the tumour by burning it with a laser. | :00:48. | :00:50. | |
The hope now is that that will end Finley's seizures. | :00:51. | :00:52. | |
Now, remember, he can suffer up to 15 seizures in a single day. | :00:53. | :00:55. | |
Now his family spent last night by his bedside | :00:56. | :00:57. | |
and he is recovering from the surgery. | :00:58. | :01:01. | |
Remarkably, because this technique involves making just a small hole | :01:02. | :01:05. | |
in the skull the size of a pen top, some patients are actually | :01:06. | :01:09. | |
And we will have all the reaction from Finley's family and the surgeon | :01:10. | :01:15. | |
who carried out that successful operation on Monday's programme. | :01:16. | :01:20. | |
Stewart Whincup, BBC Look North, at a Texas children's | :01:21. | :01:23. | |

A 35-year-old man from Stockton died last Saturday. | :01:36. | :01:37. | |

The mass planting of snowdrops has begun again at Wallington Hall | :02:11. | :02:13. | |
The National Trust's encouraging volunteers to give | :02:14. | :02:17. | |
And over the next few days, they're planning to plant more | :02:18. | :02:23. | |
than over 100,000 bulbs as Jim Knight reports. | :02:24. | :02:27. | |
And among the families getting down and dirty among | :02:28. | :02:33. | |
the snowdrop bulbs today, some very young helpers. | :02:34. | :02:41. | |
I helped Grandpa stick the snowdrops in and then he helped me crumple | :02:42. | :02:44. | |
the soil that came out of the back of these. | :02:45. | :02:47. | |
Wallington already has a national reputation | :02:48. | :02:56. | |
for its snowdrop displays - but after this third year of mass | :02:57. | :03:10. | |
planting, it will soon be in a league of its own. | :03:11. | :03:15. | |
If like me, you enjoy walking through the trees and admiring | :03:16. | :03:18. | |
the huge sprays of these delicate white flowers. | :03:19. | :03:19. | |
If we were to let them spread naturally, it | :03:20. | :03:22. | |
So if we do it this way and just give things a little bit of a push, | :03:23. | :03:29. | |
we can get at how we want it a lot more quickly and we get | :03:30. | :03:33. | |
And, of course, when you come across into the East Wood, | :03:34. | :03:38. | |
you can really see the fruits of the labour. | :03:39. | :03:40. | |
These snowdrops were planted here about two years ago and now | :03:41. | :03:42. | |
there are some magnificent sprays among the trees. | :03:43. | :03:44. | |
Jim Knight, BBC Look North, Wallington. | :03:45. | :03:46. | |
Onto football now - and in the FA Cup at | :03:47. | :03:48. | |

finals with a late goal from Christian Stuani securing a 3-2 | :03:52. | :03:54. | |

In the National League - York drew 1 each with Boreham Wood. | :04:04. | :04:06. | |
But Gateshead kept their play-off hopes alive with a 3-1 win over | :04:07. | :04:09. | |
And in Scottish League Two - Berwick Rangers beat Forfar | :04:10. | :04:12. | |
Dare I say it, it's feeling a tad milder. | :04:13. | :04:19. | |
Let's find out what is happening with the weather. | :04:20. | :04:21. | |
Well we are ending the day with patchy, light rain and drizzle | :04:22. | :04:26. | |
Overnight there will be some clear spells on the east of the Pennines, | :04:27. | :04:31. | |

Tomorrow again we're looking at variable, | :04:39. | :04:41. | |
The cloud will always be thickest across Cumbria where there could be | :04:42. | :04:45. | |
The best of any bright spells in the east of the Pennines | :04:46. | :04:49. | |
and temperatures around 11, maybe 12 degrees. | :04:50. | :04:51. | |
Look North is back at ten to six tomorrow. | :04:52. | :04:59. | |

sunshine. Blue skies and sunshine here above the River Thames. It has | :05:26. | :05:29. | |
not been sunny everywhere, though. We have got more cloud around across | :05:30. | :05:33. | |
more northerly parts of the country. Some rain to come tonight across | :05:34. | :05:37. | |
Scotland and northern England, all clearing away by the time we get to | :05:38. | :05:41. | |
Sunday morning. And it will be quite chilly start to Sunday, particularly | :05:42. | :05:44. | |
in the south-east corner, where there could be some mist and fog | :05:45. | :05:48. | |
first thing. Away from the south and south-east, it is a milder start to | :05:49. | :05:53. | |
