A 51-year-old man has been charged with the murder of a man

:00:09.:00:13.

34-year-old Craig Guy was found stabbed to death on Thursday

:00:14.:00:16.

night at The Beacon, a centre for homeless veterans

:00:17.:00:18.

The man accused is due in court tomorrow.

:00:19.:00:24.

The family of a seriously ill girl from Newcastle,

:00:25.:00:26.

have turned to social media to locate a vital piece

:00:27.:00:29.

Seven year old Molly Grace was in desperate need

:00:30.:00:32.

of a special feeding tube after a national shortage left

:00:33.:00:35.

This is Molly and she'd like to say thank you to

:00:36.:00:45.

everybody for all the likes and shares of my Facebook appeal...

:00:46.:00:51.

Molly Grace has severe cerebral palsy and last week

:00:52.:00:53.

a feeding tube attached to her bowel was too short and the RVI

:00:54.:00:57.

in Newcastle, where Molly's being treated,

:00:58.:01:01.

Increasingly concerned, her parents decided to embrace

:01:02.:01:04.

by putting the appeal out we felt like we were doing something

:01:05.:01:13.

in the meantime, not expecting at all that it was going to work.

:01:14.:01:17.

At a hospital in Glasgow the right sized tube was found

:01:18.:01:23.

and a charity volunteered to drive it to Newcastle.

:01:24.:01:27.

We don't often get to see the long-term impact of what we have

:01:28.:01:30.

achieved so yesterday, yeah, it was something really special.

:01:31.:01:36.

The RVI says the problem was caused by a national shortage

:01:37.:01:39.

of feeding tubes and was not specific to Newcastle.

:01:40.:01:41.

they were grateful to NHS colleagues who acted so positively.

:01:42.:01:50.

My phone's sort of pinging and pinging and

:01:51.:01:52.

pinging with all of these messages and shares and requests to help.

:01:53.:01:55.

She's just really, like, happy, I think she likes all the attention.

:01:56.:02:02.

Molly's family now hopes to raise ?1000 for the charity

:02:03.:02:06.

that helped, overwhelmed by the public support

:02:07.:02:08.

Phil Connell, BBC Look North, Newcastle.

:02:09.:02:16.

The Archbishop of York has spoken about courage and hope this Easter.

:02:17.:02:19.

But it wasn't exactly a traditional sermon.

:02:20.:02:27.

Dr John Sentamu was addressing a packed congregation at York Minster.

:02:28.:02:32.

He surprised worshippers by playing the Tyneside band

:02:33.:02:34.

The whole thing of that song for me is saying never,

:02:35.:02:41.

never see death or trouble or problems

:02:42.:02:43.

And I have seen this so much in my own life that

:02:44.:02:49.

that song really did tell me, yeah.

:02:50.:02:51.

So you've got to get out of here, babe,

:02:52.:02:53.

Cricket, and Yorkshire are on the brink of victory

:02:54.:03:00.

at Edgbaston, where Warwickshire collapsed to 85 for nine

:03:01.:03:02.

in their second innings, still 131 runs short of the Tykes

:03:03.:03:04.

Meanwhile, rain disrupted much of the day at Chester le Street,

:03:05.:03:10.

in Durham's first match of the County Championship season

:03:11.:03:12.

With a day left, Durham lead the visitors by 58 runs

:03:13.:03:18.

with three wickets of their second innings remaining.

:03:19.:03:19.

In snooker, a battling Crucible debut from Wallsend's Gary Wilson

:03:20.:03:25.

came to an end when he was beaten by former champion Ronnie O'Sullivan

:03:26.:03:28.

in the first round of the World Championships.

:03:29.:03:31.

The former taxi driver fought back from 5-1 down, to 9-7.

:03:32.:03:35.

But O'Sullivan clinched the match in the 17th frame.

:03:36.:03:40.

A disappointing Easter Day outdoors for many today.

:03:41.:03:43.

Hope you've had a good Easter weekend so far.

:03:44.:03:50.

You know the weather hasn't been too bad.

:03:51.:03:52.

Tomorrow we're switching gives a bit.

:03:53.:04:00.

It'll be cloudy and we will see showers.

:04:01.:04:03.

What will be different compared to today is

:04:04.:04:04.

some of the showers will be quite heavy and a

:04:05.:04:07.

We lose that weather front that brought us rain and

:04:08.:04:11.

thicker cloud earlier and things are mostly dry.

:04:12.:04:13.

A couple of showers creeping into parts of Northumberland,

:04:14.:04:16.

maybe the Cheviots where they could be a touch wintry,

:04:17.:04:18.

It's a bright start across North Yorkshire, parts

:04:19.:04:23.

of Cumbria but really wherever you are, you may be affected by this

:04:24.:04:26.

kind of pipeline of showers flooding down from the north.

:04:27.:04:28.

But look between them, you could see there is room

:04:29.:04:31.

for improvement, brightening up, highs of 11 or 12 Celsius but

:04:32.:04:33.

we do have air from the north, a colder source region.

:04:34.:04:36.

Let's get technical, here's the pressure chart, high

:04:37.:04:38.

pressure in charge over the next few days so it's a pretty settled story

:04:39.:04:41.

and mostly dry but what you will notice are some pretty chilly nights

:04:42.:04:44.

and I think we could see a frost as well.

:04:45.:04:50.

Colin Briggs is here with Bank Holiday breakfast updates.

:04:51.:04:53.

But from the Easter bunnies here, have a peaceful night.

:04:54.:05:06.

If today's conditions were great and stamp, tomorrow's weather offers

:05:07.:05:16.

more promise, clear skies and some flower -- cloud showers compared to

:05:17.:05:21.

today. The cloud reducing rain through the south-east overnight

:05:22.:05:23.

although some rain will be welcome in a garden and mostly dry later

:05:24.:05:29.

along with the clearest conditions for Scotland and Northern Ireland

:05:30.:05:33.

and the coldest weather meaning a touch of frost for the morning of

:05:34.:05:37.

the brightest weather to start eastern Monday. Showers developing

:05:38.:05:41.

through the day, particularly for northern Scotland, they will be

:05:42.:05:44.

wintry over the hills with rain at lower levels

:05:45.:05:47.
