:00:04. > :00:08.Good evening and welcome to Thursday's Look North. On the

:00:08. > :00:12.programme tonight: From waste land to work place, thousands of new

:00:12. > :00:18.jobs promised as the Government announces enterprise zones for

:00:18. > :00:21.Yorkshire. Also tonight, making a stand - why a Leeds pensioner

:00:21. > :00:26.refuses to obey council orders to remove flowers and ornaments from

:00:26. > :00:36.outside her home. And the 13-year- old paraplegic swimmer who dreams

:00:36. > :00:50.

:00:50. > :00:54.Cooler tomorrow, all the details First tonight, thousands of rail

:00:54. > :01:00.passengers in Yorkshire face rush- our delays, after a power cut in

:01:00. > :01:06.Leeds. At one point this evening no, trains were able to move in or out

:01:06. > :01:09.of the city's main straigs. Emma Glasbey is in the newsroom. The

:01:09. > :01:13.signalling problems may be over, but severe disruption continues

:01:13. > :01:17.this evening for people who are trying to get home. At one point

:01:17. > :01:22.there were no trains moving through Leeds station for more than an hour

:01:22. > :01:25.at the height of rush hour, causing real problems for thousands of

:01:25. > :01:29.commuters. Now although services are now back up and running, there

:01:29. > :01:33.is, of course, a back log that needs to be cleared. Still a very

:01:33. > :01:36.frustrating time tonight for the people who have been crowding into

:01:36. > :01:40.Leeds City station. Network Rail say they apologise to the many

:01:40. > :01:48.passengers who have been delayed. We've mentioned a power cut, but

:01:48. > :01:52.what happened exactly? It was this power cut at around 4. A15pm, we're

:01:52. > :01:58.told in the area around Leeds City station. We don't know exactly what

:01:58. > :02:03.caused that cut. That is now being investigated. But tonight, East

:02:03. > :02:07.Coast told us it's not likely to have been a result of cable theft.

:02:07. > :02:11.The power outage was outside the station area. The power was out for

:02:11. > :02:17.a couple of minutes that. Caused signalling fault at Leeds station.

:02:17. > :02:20.Engineers managed to fix that problem before 5.30pm. By that time,

:02:21. > :02:25.the crowds of commuters had already built up. Can you broadcast any of

:02:25. > :02:29.the things that people are saying about it? It is a very frustrating

:02:29. > :02:33.time tonight for all those commuters crowding into Leeds City

:02:33. > :02:38.station. This is what some of them told us. Trains are coming into

:02:38. > :02:41.Leeds, none of them's going out of Leeds, so basically, we're just

:02:41. > :02:51.stuck here and trying to find a way to get home. I haven't heard

:02:51. > :02:52.

:02:52. > :02:57.anything. I might just go home and try again. You can just wait. It's

:02:57. > :03:01.frustrating. But the only thing can you do is wait. For the latest

:03:01. > :03:06.information about the situation on the railways your BBC local radio

:03:06. > :03:10.station will have regular updates. Now thousands of new jobs and

:03:10. > :03:14.hundreds of new businesses could be create add cross Yorkshire under a

:03:14. > :03:19.scheme announced by the Government today. Ministers have unveiled

:03:19. > :03:25.details of two new enterprise zones. Jobs are promised in the Sheffield

:03:25. > :03:33.zone. That's about key sites along the M1 motorway. They say it could

:03:33. > :03:38.create nearly 13,000 jobs in the next four years. And in Leeds,

:03:38. > :03:44.there could be 4,000 jobs. They could have discounted business

:03:44. > :03:47.rates, superfast Broadband and relaxed planning rules. First Emma

:03:47. > :03:51.Blackburn reports on the south Yorkshire plan.

:03:51. > :03:55.Designing for the future, it's pioneering technology like this

:03:55. > :03:59.that's the focus for Sheffield's new enterprise zone. Already based

:03:59. > :04:03.and working at Rotherham's advanced manufacturing park, the idea is to

:04:03. > :04:07.build on this and create hundreds of advanced technology businesses

:04:07. > :04:11.along the M1 corridor of south Yorkshire. Chosen to promote maid

:04:11. > :04:16.in Sheffield brand, today the Communities Secretary paid a visit

:04:16. > :04:20.to a proposed site to confirm his belief in south Yorkshire.

:04:20. > :04:27.thing about the enterprise zones, are just something to get things

:04:27. > :04:29.moving. They'll have an effect wider than the seeds sewn

:04:30. > :04:32.themselves. In talking to the leader of Council and the chief

:04:32. > :04:37.executive, and I'm convinced that we've made the right decision to

:04:37. > :04:42.come to Sheffield. Over 400,000 square metres of land is expected

:04:42. > :04:46.to be used across the sites, including this one, to hold 250

:04:46. > :04:51.businesses by 2015. And it's expected that will generate over

:04:51. > :04:55.12,000 jobs. But the idea of creating this site isn't new. 15

:04:55. > :05:01.years ago, we were reporting about the former mining area of the

:05:01. > :05:07.Dearne Valley being transformed into an enterprise zone. Today, the

:05:07. > :05:10.site has businesses there, but how successful has it been? It's a car-

:05:10. > :05:16.based area. Many of the jobs are taken by people outside, call

:05:16. > :05:20.centre jobs, which are important, but not a sense of a new economy.

:05:20. > :05:25.Gordon is a professor of urban regional studies and has researched

:05:25. > :05:29.tools used for strengthening the economy. The enterprise zone is not

:05:29. > :05:33.an answer to the wider economic problems of the cub tri. There's a

:05:33. > :05:37.lot of uncertainty in business areas, if this is sufficient

:05:37. > :05:40.investment, is there wider operating environment supported

:05:40. > :05:43.more generally? Those are more important issues. Work has started

:05:43. > :05:46.on the site in Rotherham. Because of the relaxed planning regulations

:05:46. > :05:55.it's expected that it won't be too long before other businesses start

:05:55. > :06:01.to move in. The Lower Aire Valley, once a part

:06:01. > :06:06.of industrial Leeds, soon to be put back to work. It's a perfect

:06:06. > :06:10.location, a brand new road divides it and leads straight to the M1.

:06:10. > :06:15.Plans are already well advanced for its development and enterprise zone

:06:15. > :06:18.status will give it advantages with business rates and planning. One of

:06:18. > :06:22.the reasons for choosing this site rather than any other is that it's

:06:22. > :06:26.ready to go. Developers have told me they can make a start within

:06:26. > :06:32.months, creating hundreds of new jobs. Within four years, that could

:06:32. > :06:34.be thousands of new jobs. Instant growth, all in time for the next

:06:35. > :06:39.election. It's good to see the economy is

:06:39. > :06:42.growing. But it's not growing as fast as we would like it to. This

:06:42. > :06:46.initiative helps get that acceleration in growth. I wouldn't

:06:46. > :06:49.be too cautious. I think our manufacturing base, especially in

:06:49. > :06:52.Yorkshire and elsewhere, has been doing really well in the last 12

:06:52. > :06:58.months. They need our support and encouragement. They're going to get

:06:58. > :07:02.it. Site is in Leeds, but its supporters are keen to stress the

:07:02. > :07:06.benefits will eventually be felt throughout Yorkshire. The rates

:07:06. > :07:11.that are generated from here will not go to Leeds city. So to a

:07:11. > :07:17.degree there is a loss there for Leeds City. It goes into the pool

:07:17. > :07:21.for the benefit of the whole region. But there is still some unease.

:07:21. > :07:25.Bradford missed out. The zone would spread from behind the back of the

:07:25. > :07:30.university all the way across to the top end of town. The need is

:07:30. > :07:33.obvious. The benefit, they say, would be long-term. But now they'll

:07:33. > :07:37.have to wait years to benefit from spin-off investment generated in

:07:37. > :07:41.Leeds. That is a clear concern, which is

:07:41. > :07:45.why we're trying to look at other avenues for attracting in both

:07:45. > :07:48.private sector investment and public sector investment. Clearly

:07:48. > :07:52.the enterprise zone would have been great benefit to the City centre

:07:52. > :07:56.and the people of Bradford. As a council we're getting on with the

:07:56. > :08:06.job. They'll just have to wait and see if the enterprise zone down the

:08:06. > :08:06.

:08:06. > :08:11.road delivers. The mother of a soldier, killed in

:08:11. > :08:15.Afghanistan s, calling for greater support for bereaved families.

:08:15. > :08:18.Private James Backhouse died two years ago this month. His mum

:08:18. > :08:21.Sharon says she doesn't feel that the Ministry of Defence has given

:08:21. > :08:24.his family the help that they've really needed. She's planning to

:08:25. > :08:33.set up a group to support other families who find themselves in the

:08:33. > :08:38.same terrible situation. Two years ago, rifleman James

:08:38. > :08:41.Backhouse was flown home from Afghanistan in a coughin. He was 18,

:08:41. > :08:49.for his family memories of the day they learned of his death remain

:08:49. > :08:54.vivid. I just thought no, he's still in Afghanistan. They've got

:08:54. > :08:59.the wrong person. They've got the wrong one. It's not him. And I

:08:59. > :09:03.couldn't get it in my head. I kept saying, "I need to see him. Please

:09:03. > :09:09.let me see him." They said, we can't, until we've seen him Sharon,

:09:09. > :09:16.we have to know. And I think if they hadn't let me seen him, I

:09:16. > :09:21.still think to this day that he probably weren't dead. James, known

:09:21. > :09:25.to his friends as Jimmy, was buried in his home town of Castleford. His

:09:25. > :09:32.mother said initial support from the MoD was good, but she now feels

:09:32. > :09:38.let down. We've got after care now, which is a joke, because she's from

:09:38. > :09:44.Wales and if you've got a problem, you have to ring Wales and get in

:09:44. > :09:50.touch with them and say whatever your problem is and get them to

:09:50. > :09:53.assist you on the phone. In a statement, the MoD says, "When a

:09:53. > :09:57.soldier dies, the family is appointed a military visiting

:09:57. > :10:00.officer for practical support. Then they're put in kuch with the Army

:10:00. > :10:03.welfare service who provide bereavement support and are visited

:10:03. > :10:08.by a local welfare manager. Then they're given the details of

:10:08. > :10:13.charities and support groups, but it's up to them to make contact.

:10:13. > :10:17."Direct support from the MoD is usually only available to next of

:10:17. > :10:23.kin. Sharon says James's three brothers have no support. She now

:10:23. > :10:27.plans to set up a group for all family members. James would have

:10:27. > :10:37.been 21 this year. For Sharon, memories of the man he was will

:10:37. > :10:41.

:10:41. > :10:50.always remain. Absolutely beautiful kid and amazing. Watching that

:10:50. > :10:54.report is a bereavement counsellor. Looking at Sharon it's really

:10:54. > :10:57.upsetting two. Years on, she clearly needs help. Yes. There

:10:57. > :11:03.isn't a cut-off time, how long it takes for people to greefr.

:11:03. > :11:07.Everybody's different. And it can take up to five, six, seven, you

:11:07. > :11:12.know it will never go away, it gets a bit easier to live with. I think

:11:12. > :11:16.that Sharon saying that she's trying to set up this group, we've

:11:16. > :11:19.known her for the two years since her lovely son James died, I

:11:19. > :11:24.suppose talking to other people in the same situation is so important,

:11:24. > :11:27.isn't it? Yes, it does help to compare what each other are going

:11:27. > :11:32.through and to see people a little bit further down the line, that

:11:32. > :11:38.you're not on your own and how they're coping with it. But also,

:11:38. > :11:43.it's important to have somebody for yourself, like a counsellor or

:11:43. > :11:47.supporter to talk to. In that report it was suggested there was

:11:47. > :11:49.help available, if she would answer the phone and so on. That in itself

:11:49. > :11:53.is difficult when you've been through and are still going through

:11:53. > :11:57.what she is. Yes, it's often difficult to ask for help at a time

:11:57. > :12:01.when you are very low. It's difficult to pick up the phone and

:12:01. > :12:05.a lot of the local organisations you have to pick up the phone and

:12:05. > :12:11.refer yourself, your neighbour or friend can't refer you. Wales seems

:12:11. > :12:14.a long way away. They were the numbers she was given. Sharon has

:12:14. > :12:18.done wonderful things, amazing fundraising and brought people

:12:18. > :12:23.together. I suppose what she's going through is entirely natural.

:12:23. > :12:28.It is, yes. Whether it's a traumatic or an expected death, the

:12:28. > :12:31.things and the feelings that people go through and experience are very

:12:31. > :12:37.similar - shock and anger and disbelief, but because it's a

:12:37. > :12:40.traumatic and sudden death, then the feelings are intensified.

:12:40. > :12:44.played out in the national media. Then they get a lot of attention

:12:44. > :12:48.from the media and they're not allowed the privacy to be

:12:48. > :12:53.themselves and to feel the grief. Thank you very much. We hope your

:12:53. > :12:57.words help Sharon as well. Sharon, if you're watchling, -- watching,

:12:57. > :13:02.our thoughts go out to you. We can't thank you for all the work

:13:02. > :13:07.you've done. Solving a puzzle - could these

:13:07. > :13:13.bones actually be the remains of a Roman gladiator? We think we have

:13:13. > :13:17.the proof. A Leeds pensioner is making a

:13:17. > :13:23.stands, after the council told her and her neighbours to remove all

:13:23. > :13:26.pictures, plants and carpets from the communal areas of their

:13:26. > :13:30.sheltered housing complex. Leeds Council designated the hallways at

:13:30. > :13:38.their home as sterile areas, that's their words, raising concerns about

:13:38. > :13:43.fire safety. Sylvia is making a stand. Once all the halls of

:13:43. > :13:47.Midland house looked like hers. Sheltered housing, but home. But

:13:47. > :13:51.look at what most have turned into. A letter from the council

:13:51. > :13:56.designated the halls sterile areas and any personal belongings had to

:13:56. > :13:59.go. Coming in at the door, you're at home. All the way through the

:13:59. > :14:05.building you're at home. You don't just come in and then you're home

:14:05. > :14:11.when you go through the door. But they're calling it a sterile public

:14:11. > :14:16.area, as if it's not part of your home. It's sort of taking it away

:14:16. > :14:19.from us. It's not just the space is outside their front doors. The

:14:19. > :14:26.notice also said carpets, wall hangings and curtains in communal

:14:26. > :14:31.areas must go. Card making club suddenly would seem a somewhat less

:14:31. > :14:36.cosy affair. We like it tos bright and cheerful. We like flowers. We

:14:36. > :14:40.like pictures. And the way the letter read, it said that all

:14:40. > :14:45.artificial flowers would have to go. We decide today would look like a

:14:45. > :14:48.work house if we did that. That upset everybody. If you're an older

:14:48. > :14:53.person and you've had to go into sheltered accommodation, you still

:14:53. > :14:57.want to make sure that your home is personalised that you can offer a

:14:57. > :15:02.welcome to guests that are knocking on your front door. To call them

:15:02. > :15:07.sterile areas and ask people to remove any aspect of personality

:15:07. > :15:11.from their doorstep, I feel, is a bit of a hammer to crack a nut. Yes,

:15:11. > :15:14.there needs to be health and safety, but let's be sensible about it.

:15:15. > :15:19.a statement the council said "We appreciate these requests may seem

:15:19. > :15:23.over the top, but it would be unforgivable if a serious accident

:15:23. > :15:26.occurred because we'd not followed professional advice. But we

:15:26. > :15:31.appreciate that these residents are proud of their homes and we'll see

:15:31. > :15:35.what can be allowed to make communal areas more homely." Sylvia

:15:35. > :15:38.and her friends say they've always been very happy with the council

:15:38. > :15:46.and Midlands house, but without their personal touches, it just

:15:47. > :15:53.wouldn't feel like home. Lots of passion there. Actually, if

:15:53. > :15:58.anyone wants to knit Joe another scarf, he did come from the south,

:15:58. > :16:03.he feels the cold obviously. Six Roman Skeltons found buried in a

:16:03. > :16:06.York garden, are put on display for the first time. Apparently it's

:16:06. > :16:10.incredible. The exhibition in Coppergate opens on Saturday and

:16:10. > :16:14.will allow people to see the remains which are described as a

:16:14. > :16:20.really unique find. Theories are raging as to how the Romans died.

:16:20. > :16:24.Strong evidence points to their being gladiators.

:16:24. > :16:30.Nearly 2,000 years after his death, the bones of this man are the cause

:16:30. > :16:35.of much fascinating discussion. He's one of 80 Skeltons found

:16:35. > :16:40.buried in a York garden seven years ago. All but one were men and half

:16:40. > :16:44.had been decapitated. Now six are going on display for the first time

:16:44. > :16:50.in York. Visitors can decide for themselves how these men might have

:16:50. > :16:53.met their grisly deaths. Theory number one is that these men were

:16:53. > :16:57.glatiators and this is the single bone that gives rise to that

:16:57. > :17:03.interpretation, it's a pel vision, which is in pieces, but it has bite

:17:03. > :17:09.marks on it, possibly from a large carnivore, maybe a lion, a tiger or

:17:09. > :17:14.even a bear. You can see them really clearly. This man would have

:17:14. > :17:21.been trained in the art of animal combat and he was called a

:17:21. > :17:25.bestiarious. He would have fought in an arena armed with just a spear

:17:25. > :17:30.or knife with basic leather armour. And despite appearances, fighting

:17:30. > :17:37.animals was less risky than fighting a fellow gladiator, that

:17:37. > :17:43.was brutal. There's a huge amount of trauma that's evidenced on the

:17:43. > :17:47.Skeltons in terms of sword cuts, decap taigs, lots of brutality

:17:47. > :17:52.involved around the time of death. Theory number two is that the bones

:17:52. > :17:57.belonged to soldiers killed in battle, but decapitated after death,

:17:57. > :18:01.because Romans believed that would stop them haunting the living. The

:18:01. > :18:03.third theory is that they were executed criminals or victims of a

:18:03. > :18:07.political massacre. We want to get people involved in the discussion

:18:07. > :18:10.really, who these people were, so we want them to enjoy it. We want

:18:10. > :18:14.them to learn something and want them to think about it as well I

:18:14. > :18:19.think. That's for everybody, from children right through to adults.

:18:19. > :18:22.Perhaps not surprisingly, the gladiator theory is most people's

:18:22. > :18:27.favourite and even better, it raises the possibility of an arena

:18:27. > :18:30.yet to be discovered, under the streets of modern Europe.

:18:30. > :18:33.expecting about two weeks after we finish the report on this, that

:18:33. > :18:43.we'll find the arena and we'll have to write something completely new

:18:43. > :18:48.

:18:48. > :18:52.about it. In your dreams. Oh, yes! In rugby league the Bradford Bulls

:18:52. > :19:01.have snapped up Jarrod Sammut. The 24-year-old Australian moves from

:19:01. > :19:05.the troubled Welsh side to Odsal next season. The Bulls say the move

:19:05. > :19:09.was sorted out before crusaders withdrew from Super League.

:19:09. > :19:13.We love this story. We like people who are really inspirational. We're

:19:13. > :19:17.about to meet another. A teenager from otly has take ton a new sport

:19:17. > :19:22.like a duck to water. She's absolutely brilliant. It's not been

:19:22. > :19:26.easy for Danielle Bailey. She's had all four limbs amputated when she

:19:26. > :19:30.was young. But she's skill excelling at swimming. People are

:19:30. > :19:36.talking big things, Paralympics, not London 2012, that might be too

:19:36. > :19:41.soon. We're pretty sure four years later she could do it. ( nine years

:19:41. > :19:45.ago, Danielle Bailey from otly was left fighting for her life. She'd

:19:45. > :19:49.been diagnosed with meningitis. She had to have all four limbs

:19:49. > :19:52.amputated. Doctors were not even sure she'd live. But now just a

:19:52. > :19:56.year after learning to swim, she's well on her way to sporting glory.

:19:56. > :20:02.The whole thing about it is about teaching the same as you teach

:20:02. > :20:06.anyone else. I've taught Danielle exactly the same as I'd teach any

:20:06. > :20:11.other person who comes through the scheme, exact lit same and we just
