:00:04. > :00:08.Welcome to Tuesday's Look North. On the programme tonight: Top flight
:00:09. > :00:12.Rugby League stays in West Yorkshire.
:00:12. > :00:15.It is good news for Castleford and Wakefield who win their fight to
:00:15. > :00:19.stay in Super League. We will also be getting reaction
:00:19. > :00:26.from Halifax, the team who lost out. Spending cuts start to bite.
:00:26. > :00:29.Opposition grows to police plans to close cells at a Worksop station.
:00:29. > :00:39.And as rugby star Mike Tindall prepares for his royal wedding
:00:39. > :00:45.
:00:45. > :00:50.,what do students at his old school think? If he can get a lot over
:00:50. > :00:57.jewels but I do not want him to play them -- wear them if he plays
:00:57. > :01:07.for England because he might break them. The Sun did come out in some
:01:07. > :01:10.
:01:10. > :01:15.southern areas today. More details or later.
:01:15. > :01:17.Tonight, the joy and the anger from a day of drama in rugby league. Two
:01:17. > :01:21.of our teams, Castleford and Wakefield, learned that they will
:01:21. > :01:25.be allowed to continue playing at the game's top level for the next
:01:25. > :01:29.three years. But one of our other teams, Halifax, is furious that
:01:29. > :01:39.they missed out on a place in Super League. Let's go over to our sports
:01:39. > :01:45.
:01:45. > :01:52.reporter who is in Wakefield for us tonight. There is a sense of relief
:01:52. > :02:00.here at Wakefield. It is all down to criteria. You get issued a
:02:00. > :02:05.licence. This has not been one of Wakefield's strongest suits. It is
:02:05. > :02:11.also about player development and results. Today Wakefield and Castle
:02:11. > :02:19.third estate in but Halifax were not allowed in. -- Castle third.
:02:19. > :02:22.was absolutely agonising. -- it was absolutely agonising.
:02:22. > :02:26.That is what it is like to watch the future of your club announced
:02:26. > :02:29.on TV. As their name was being read out we were locked out of the
:02:29. > :02:32.ground. This was not just about what division Wakefield would be
:02:32. > :02:37.playing in, but people's livelihoods as well, and they had
:02:37. > :02:47.feared the worst. What is your reaction? At the one
:02:47. > :02:50.is ecstatic. Surprised? -- everyone is ecstatic. Surprised? Yes. We
:02:50. > :02:55.know the history of the club has not been the greatest in the last
:02:55. > :03:01.few years and months. We had to do everything we possibly could to
:03:01. > :03:09.prove that if they did back as we would deliver. The sense of relief
:03:10. > :03:16.around the ground was palpable, from the staff to the fans. Were
:03:16. > :03:21.you fearing the worst? Yes. I am happy. We have a happy future ahead
:03:21. > :03:28.of us. Over at Castleford they were a bit more confident, but their
:03:28. > :03:33.spot was not guaranteed till their name was read out. I will have a
:03:33. > :03:38.little glass of champagne. There is a lot of hard work to do. This has
:03:38. > :03:44.been part of the process. This has never been the endgame of anything.
:03:44. > :03:47.This is part of the process and another tick in the box. As for
:03:47. > :03:56.Halifax, their best chance probably went when they lost out to Widnes
:03:56. > :04:00.earlier this year. We expected to get credit for the fact that our
:04:00. > :04:05.ground is finished and we have complied with all of the rules of
:04:05. > :04:12.the game for the last three years. Our fans deserve to be there and
:04:12. > :04:17.the town deserves to be there. None of that has happened. I do not know
:04:17. > :04:18.what the grounds are because they what the grounds are because they
:04:18. > :04:25.what the grounds are because they what the grounds are because they
:04:25. > :04:27.haven't had the courtesy to tell us. Grounds
:04:27. > :04:30.Grounds will be uppermost now for Wakefield and Castleford. They
:04:30. > :04:33.cannot afford to be in this position in three years time. And
:04:33. > :04:37.for the Wildcats coach a chance to look forward and start recruiting a
:04:37. > :04:43.team for next season. Now we can look them in the eyes and that will
:04:43. > :04:48.help the club massively. It will be a good change for you. Yes. We have
:04:48. > :04:53.got foundations and we can build up words rather than having our backs
:04:53. > :05:03.of against the wall and feeling that everyone is against us. It is
:05:03. > :05:10.
:05:10. > :05:14.great. Joining me is the club chairman. How do you feel this
:05:14. > :05:20.evening? Are you going to have to do some work in the next three
:05:20. > :05:26.years? Just outline what you will have to do. We have got the perfect
:05:26. > :05:31.opportunity to do everything that needs doing. We will sort this
:05:31. > :05:40.ground out and make it more compliant. You need the new stadium,
:05:40. > :05:45.did you? Definitely. Now, it has been difficult with administration
:05:45. > :05:51.and he did not have an owner and tell you got a hundred. What has it
:05:51. > :05:58.been for you as the -- and tell you got a Andrew. What has it been like
:05:58. > :06:04.for you? We have had some fantastic performances from our squad. We
:06:04. > :06:10.have built up the franchises. But today it has been all cleared for
:06:10. > :06:16.us. We are ecstatic that we have three more years. What does this
:06:16. > :06:21.mean for Wakefield? It means everything. This is a rugby city.
:06:21. > :06:25.We have been here for years and years. The club does a lot of
:06:25. > :06:33.community work. The club reaches all sorts of people. To lose that
:06:33. > :06:38.would have been a travesty. I know you have been answering lots of
:06:38. > :06:48.phone calls, Andrew. Is it true that you are going to shave off the
:06:48. > :06:48.
:06:49. > :06:52.Beard now that you have got in? it is not! The irony is that
:06:52. > :06:59.Whitbread will be -- Wake field will be celebrating but their match
:06:59. > :07:01.is against the Crusaders. The good news for Wakefield meant
:07:01. > :07:11.disappointment for another of our clubs, Halifax. You have been
:07:11. > :07:33.
:07:33. > :07:36.getting in touch with us on Earlier I spoke to Ralph Rimmer
:07:36. > :07:39.from the game's governing body the Rugby Football League and I asked
:07:39. > :07:42.him why Halifax were not considered for Super League. They were
:07:42. > :07:51.considered. They were considered because their application was put
:07:51. > :07:56.in. The application itself is across a balanced scorecard. It is
:07:56. > :08:04.purely delivered and driven by the applications we received. What was
:08:04. > :08:08.wrong with Halifax? They would like to know. I spoke with Tony Alberts
:08:08. > :08:12.30 minutes after the announcement today so he knows. Can the fans
:08:12. > :08:16.know? They want to know what was wrong. It is a straightforward
:08:16. > :08:21.question. It is a straightforward question and I will tell this
:08:21. > :08:26.directly to the club. What I could say is that we met with the Halifax
:08:26. > :08:30.club on a few occasions recently and pointed out to them their
:08:30. > :08:36.weaknesses, as we did with other clubs as well, and we have brought
:08:36. > :08:40.in and upended people to judge these applications. They have
:08:40. > :08:45.judged what has been put in front of them. The best applications went
:08:45. > :08:52.through. Halifax were not good enough? Their application was not
:08:52. > :08:56.as strong as the applications from others. We always welcome your
:08:56. > :09:05.comments. There has been a major breakthrough
:09:05. > :09:08.into investigations surrounding the Hillsborough disaster. 96 Liverpool
:09:08. > :09:11.fans were crushed to death before an FA cup semi-final there in 1989.
:09:11. > :09:13.Now the government has been ordered to publish documents revealing
:09:13. > :09:21.discussions involving Margaret Thatcher and her cabinet. For the
:09:21. > :09:26.very latest let us go over to our reporter.
:09:26. > :09:31.This goes back to a Freedom of Information request made by the BBC
:09:31. > :09:34.in 2009. It was immediately after the 20th anniversary of the
:09:34. > :09:40.terrible events at Hillsborough that cost many football fans their
:09:40. > :09:45.lives. The BBC has asked for many documents, including briefings that
:09:45. > :09:49.Margaret Thatcher received at the time, 1989. She visited the stadium
:09:49. > :09:54.herself to see the scale of the devastation. The other documents
:09:54. > :09:58.that we understand are included are the minutes of meetings held with
:09:58. > :10:02.the Home Secretary and what the Cabinet was saying. We do not know
:10:02. > :10:05.what precisely will be in those documents but the information
:10:05. > :10:11.commissioner has said that they will contribute to public knowledge
:10:11. > :10:17.and understanding about the event. It is fair to say that the
:10:17. > :10:24.Government was ordered to release these -- had to order these
:10:24. > :10:27.documents to be released. The Government has one month to comply
:10:27. > :10:35.with the Freedom of Information request.
:10:35. > :10:42.Later on Look North: We get behind the wheel of this old beauty ahead
:10:42. > :10:45.of the Croft Circuit Nostalgia Weekend.
:10:45. > :10:47.More than 1,000 people have signed a petition protesting against plans
:10:47. > :10:51.which would leave a third of the county of Nottinghamshire without
:10:51. > :10:53.any police cells to hold prisoners. It's part of the massive cuts faced
:10:53. > :10:56.by police forces throughout England and Wales. But objectors say
:10:56. > :11:06.closing the ten cells at Worksop police station could leave the
:11:06. > :11:11.
:11:11. > :11:15.whole of Bassetlaw in the north of the county at risk.
:11:15. > :11:20.What we have in this building is part of the original Victorian
:11:21. > :11:28.police station and these cells date back as far as that. The 10 police
:11:28. > :11:38.cells condemned at Worksop. These will cost hundreds of thousands of
:11:38. > :11:38.
:11:38. > :11:44.pounds. Future prisoners from the Worksop area might have to be taken
:11:44. > :11:50.to Mansfield, new work or Doncaster. It does not wash with these
:11:50. > :11:55.protesters. They say that police must save �42 million over the next
:11:55. > :12:03.few years and they say that �2 million can be saved here simply by
:12:03. > :12:08.shutting down Worksop's police cells. Today's protest position was
:12:08. > :12:14.taken to the police a party. It does not save money when it takes
:12:14. > :12:19.place off the streets and into cars and moving prisoners to and from
:12:20. > :12:24.here and from the courts to Mansfield. That is false economy.
:12:24. > :12:29.What it does is put police in cause as courting people who had been
:12:29. > :12:34.arrested rather than making those arrests and getting people off the
:12:34. > :12:38.streets. It is a disaster for the local community. We have got proper
:12:38. > :12:45.plans in place to make sure that when we are transporting prisoners
:12:45. > :12:50.that there are other officers there. There if the G7 officers less on
:12:50. > :13:00.the streets in Nottinghamshire. - record 37. For me it is tough but
:13:00. > :13:05.
:13:05. > :13:09.straightforward. The cells are spas and old but the police authority
:13:09. > :13:12.thinks that money needs to be saved. Investigations are continuing after
:13:12. > :13:14.a fire broke out at a disused fire station in South Yorkshire. People
:13:14. > :13:18.living near the building in Brampton were moved from their
:13:18. > :13:27.homes or told to keep doors and windows closed while the fire was
:13:27. > :13:30.Drivers across Yorkshire are being warned of the increased risk of
:13:30. > :13:33.motorway accidents over the summer holidays as more people take to the
:13:33. > :13:35.roads. To press home the message, West Yorkshire fire officers are
:13:35. > :13:45.demonstrating a simulated accident involving a young child who isn't
:13:45. > :13:50.wearing a seatbelt. They are also offering this advice to motorists.

:14:06. > :14:09.that time. Nostalgia weekends are fast becoming a feature of the
:14:09. > :14:12.English summer. And one of the biggest is being planned for the
:14:12. > :14:17.Croft racing circuit in North Yorkshire. On show, almost every
:14:17. > :14:27.type of vehicle you could imagine from the 1940s onwards. Peter Lugg

:14:35. > :14:41.took a spin down memory lane to It is retro motor heaven. If you
:14:41. > :14:47.can drive it, played or where it, and it was made before 1970, you
:14:47. > :14:55.will fit in well. Today was a chance for drivers to get to know
:14:55. > :15:05.the circuit. It was designed and built in 1951. Yet it still has
:15:05. > :15:06.
:15:06. > :15:14.that desirable shape. It is all curves, like a female! She does not
:15:14. > :15:22.like the drag Path's! What was that they used to say
:15:22. > :15:27.about Yanks? Overpaid? Still today, everyone is working. Everyone has
:15:28. > :15:37.their own interpretation of their own car. But to me, it is worth it.
:15:37. > :15:47.It really fascinates me. It is a boy's toys time for us. What is it
:15:47. > :15:49.
:15:49. > :15:57.to meet -- what is it to be for me then? It has to be a classic. A
:15:57. > :16:06.bus! I went to school on one of these for 10 years! It is from 1963.
:16:06. > :16:13.The only problem is, you have to keep stopping. Move on, please! If
:16:13. > :16:20.it was good enough for Sir Cliff Richard, the Nostalgia Weekend is
:16:20. > :16:30.over the sixth and seventh August. First family car? All I can
:16:30. > :16:34.remember is walking in front of it with a flag! Mind was a Morris
:16:34. > :16:44.Minor. Before 7pm: How much did you pay for your dream wedding? We meet
:16:44. > :16:44.
:16:44. > :16:47.the vicar who says you can get married for just �100.
:16:47. > :16:51.He was born in Otley, went to school in Wakefield and this
:16:51. > :16:53.weekend he will join the royal family. England rugby star Mike
:16:53. > :16:58.Tindall is preparing to tie the knot with the Queen's granddaughter
:16:58. > :17:05.Zara Phillips. Emma Glasbey has been back to his old school to see
:17:05. > :17:10.just how excited the staff and pupils are getting.
:17:10. > :17:17.A West Yorkshire lad, a World Cup winner, and soon to be part of the
:17:17. > :17:22.Boyle family. It all started for Mike Tindall here in Wakefield, at
:17:22. > :17:28.Queen Elizabeth Grammar School. A school renowned for producing good
:17:28. > :17:33.rugby players. So could his old teachers ever have imagined Mike
:17:33. > :17:40.Tindall joining the royals? would never associate him with
:17:40. > :17:45.anything hoity-toity! That was not him. He was so down to earth and a
:17:45. > :17:51.real Yorkshire lad. Royal Family? That is just fate. We know that
:17:51. > :17:57.that has been coming for the last year or two. The ladies take a lot
:17:57. > :18:03.more interest in that side of Mike Tindall. This is the current crop
:18:03. > :18:10.of rugby players here, and this seemed proud of all of Mike
:18:10. > :18:14.Tindall's achievements. It is nice. I would like to emulate Mike
:18:14. > :18:18.Tindall, on and off the field, both in the position he plays, and the
:18:18. > :18:23.woman he married! And for the younger pupils, there
:18:23. > :18:31.is even more excitement: Mike Tindall is about to get his hands
:18:31. > :18:34.on the crown jewels. He can get lots of the jaws. When he gets them,
:18:35. > :18:42.I don't want him to wear them when he plays for England, because he
:18:42. > :18:50.might break them. That is the first person we have ever had going into
:18:50. > :18:56.the Royal Family! A few months ago, there was a royal wedding: Kate
:18:56. > :19:01.Middleton and William. What his second name? The staff and pupils
:19:01. > :19:08.will be watching proudly as Mike joins the oldest establishment of
:19:08. > :19:12.all. They will be even prouder if he helps us when another World Cup,
:19:12. > :19:14.though. The best of luck to them both of course and even though they
:19:14. > :19:17.are hardly having a Beckham-style wedding they will certainly be
:19:17. > :19:21.spending a few quid. But does getting wed really mean you have to
:19:21. > :19:24.spend a fortune? In a moment we will be hearing from the Leeds
:19:24. > :19:34.Baptist Minister who says he can sort your entire wedding for just
:19:34. > :19:37.
:19:37. > :19:44.one hundred pounds. First this from Charlotte Leeming.
:19:44. > :19:49.When the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge married, no expense was
:19:49. > :19:55.spared. And Kate, Pooh's Yorkshire roots go back for generations,
:19:55. > :20:01.became an international style icon. But when Mike Tindall gets married,
:20:02. > :20:05.it will be a more low-key affair. After all, this relaxed pose was
:20:05. > :20:09.their official engagement photograph. James Blakeley plans
:20:09. > :20:14.weddings for a living. He is used to dealing with big budgets, but of
:20:14. > :20:24.the past few months he has seen couples making savings. We see more
:20:24. > :20:24.
:20:24. > :20:28.people making their own sweet tea bags. Also, we see people making
:20:28. > :20:33.their own place names and table names and taking their own
:20:33. > :20:36.photographs. You do not have to go to the extreme. Those things also
:20:36. > :20:41.make it more personal to people on their wedding day. Weddings are
:20:41. > :20:45.becoming more DIY, especially when it comes to the cake, flowers and
:20:45. > :20:51.venue. But when it comes to that dress, it seems to be an area that
:20:51. > :20:56.still carries a hefty price-tag. Our dresses start at �2,500. But
:20:56. > :21:01.then they are designed and made exclusively. For any bride who was
:21:01. > :21:08.to come to ours, they will get a bespoke dress that is designed for
:21:08. > :21:11.them, and made in Leeds. The Trust does not have to cost a fortune. At
:21:12. > :21:15.this second-hand store, they are bagfuls of wedding dresses and
:21:15. > :21:22.every star you can imagine. While they may not be made to Measure,
:21:22. > :21:27.none of these will cost you more than �20. I think it tears would
:21:27. > :21:34.ever a monster spending money on, so I would want a dress more than
:21:34. > :21:38.�100. I want to spend thousands of pounds! The reason behind it is
:21:38. > :21:41.important, not the actual money you spend on it.
:21:41. > :21:47.He it is meant to be a fairy-tale day, but the cost of the whole
:21:47. > :21:57.thing can be unbelievable as well. So maybe you do not need to pay a
:21:57. > :21:58.
:21:58. > :22:01.king's ransom to have a good time. I think the average is �11,000. So
:22:01. > :22:04.what about spending lots of money on a wedding.Earlier we asked David
:22:04. > :22:14.Newton, a baptist minister from Leeds, if he thought we should all
:22:14. > :22:18.
:22:18. > :22:24.tone things down a little bit? People who cannot afford a full
:22:24. > :22:33.scale wedding, it can have something simple. We are Yorkshire
:22:33. > :22:40.folk. We wanted cheap! What can you do it for? �100. For all I get for
:22:41. > :22:48.100 quid?! You get everything you would expect at the wedding. But,
:22:48. > :22:56.you would have friends taking part and joining in. You would find ways
:22:56. > :23:02.of getting things for free, that you would expect to do. I would beg
:23:02. > :23:09.your cake, that kind of thing? one will bake your cake for you.
:23:09. > :23:16.Someone said the reception is a big expense. But they can get their
:23:16. > :23:25.friends, instead of bringing a gift, to pay for their own meal at the
:23:25. > :23:30.reception. I would feel cheap doing that. Are you saying that we are
:23:30. > :23:34.expected to conform? And we have not thought about the fact it is
:23:34. > :23:39.two people coming together to get married for the right reasons?
:23:39. > :23:44.People know that a wedding is two people committing themselves to one
:23:44. > :23:49.another. And the two families come together. Very often, the families
:23:49. > :23:54.will help and make sure that if you want have a reception in a
:23:54. > :23:59.community room, it will be a fabulous spread, better than in a
:23:59. > :24:06.hotel, and made with love. How do you already done this? I have got
:24:06. > :24:13.so many people who have said to me, David, when we got married, we used
:24:13. > :24:19.Clubcard points to buy our wedding ring! Or, we borrowed the bride's
:24:19. > :24:24.dress from somebody we knew who was the same size as the lady. You are
:24:24. > :24:34.a minister. You want people to get married. What you are saying, it is
