:00:07. > :00:10.Tonight - millions of pounds compensation. A legal victory for

:00:10. > :00:17.the student who'll need lifelong care after being paralysed in a car

:00:17. > :00:19.crash. Also on tonight's programme: Caught by the clampers - the

:00:19. > :00:27.motorist who says she was wheelclamped - even though she

:00:27. > :00:37.still had the engine running. And sweet memories - Smarties

:00:37. > :00:38.

:00:38. > :00:48.And an overcast start of the working week. Some brakes are

:00:48. > :00:53.

:00:53. > :00:56.possible later tomorrow, if so, it Welcome to the programme. A student

:00:56. > :00:58.from Sheffield, left paralysed from the chest down after a car crash,

:00:58. > :01:01.is set to receive millions of pounds after being awarded lifelong

:01:01. > :01:04.care costs. Rosie Mayes was injured just before

:01:04. > :01:08.Christmas two years ago when she was a passenger in a car that

:01:08. > :01:11.overturned. Despite suffering catastrophic injuries, she has

:01:11. > :01:17.fought back and resumed her studies - and now has won a legal battle to

:01:17. > :01:25.ensure she is looked after for the rest of her life. Joe Inwood has

:01:25. > :01:30.been to meet her. They told me that I would be in a

:01:30. > :01:33.wheelchair for the rest of my life, and it wasn't until then that I

:01:33. > :01:37.really understood the full extent of what had happened to me. She had

:01:37. > :01:41.been a passenger in a car, driven by her then boyfriend, when it

:01:41. > :01:46.crashed into an embankment and overturned. It cost Rosie 10 months

:01:46. > :01:56.in hospital and almost all movement below the chest. I can't do

:01:56. > :01:56.

:01:56. > :02:02.anything on my own, I always need help. And... I think it has

:02:02. > :02:06.affected my life and my family and friends. Ever since the car she was

:02:06. > :02:11.in hit that Burdge, Rosie has needed care 24 hours a day. That

:02:11. > :02:16.does not come cheap. At first the insurance and driver were covering

:02:16. > :02:21.the costs, but seven months ago, they changed their mind and it

:02:21. > :02:25.wasn't the driver's fault, and that is how it ended up in court.

:02:25. > :02:30.decision by the insurance company to contest liability back in July

:02:30. > :02:38.it was really a body blow for all of us, and under Bairbre think

:02:38. > :02:44.Rosie has had to go through, to add the and 78 and the stress this has

:02:44. > :02:52.caused us all, was outrageous -- of the uncertainty and the stress.

:02:52. > :02:57.judge agreed. The final figure has yet to be decided, but so titters -

:02:57. > :03:05.- solicitor's aim she could get an eight-figure settlement. As far as

:03:05. > :03:14.the future is concerned, I'm not sure what career I want to do, but

:03:14. > :03:18.there is a lot of things that now, since I have had this injury, I

:03:18. > :03:23.want to change. For Rosie, no amount of money can give her back

:03:23. > :03:29.the life she once had. But it can make the one she now has just but

:03:29. > :03:33.that will bit easier. -- just that little bit easier.

:03:33. > :03:39.I'm joined now by Neil Whiteley, Rosie's solicitor. This seems an

:03:39. > :03:45.incredible amount of money, why is it so high? As we have just heard,

:03:45. > :03:51.Rosie had a life-changing injury, and relieve with the compensation,

:03:51. > :03:56.what we can now trying do is restore some quality of life. Her

:03:56. > :04:00.care needs will be substantial, at she will need adapted housing,

:04:00. > :04:04.equipment, and most of all, she will need support with the

:04:04. > :04:07.rehabilitation, just to try and get her able to do as much as she can.

:04:07. > :04:12.The compensation will allow her to do that, so it is vitally important

:04:12. > :04:16.to Rosie that she has secured this victory. It clearly is going to be

:04:16. > :04:23.millions. Why did she have to go through a court case in the first

:04:23. > :04:29.place? It is a great shame, and the judge was emphatic in the judgment

:04:30. > :04:33.that the insurance company should really have accepted that the

:04:33. > :04:38.driver was to blame. The Great Train here is that the first few

:04:38. > :04:41.months after an injury as to be as this are the most important to

:04:41. > :04:46.focus on rehabilitation, and unfortunately, Rosie had to go

:04:46. > :04:51.through a court battle that she could have done without. So it is a

:04:51. > :04:55.great shame, and we wish they had cut to the chase two years ago and

:04:55. > :04:58.enabled her to move on. Is this the end of it or is there likely to be

:04:58. > :05:04.an appeal about the figure that will be decided in the next few

:05:04. > :05:10.days or so? Well, there is no suggestion of the insurance company

:05:10. > :05:14.appealing the actual decision of the court. But we know from our own

:05:14. > :05:18.experience, from representing seriously injured people like Rosie,

:05:18. > :05:22.but unfortunately, these disputes to go one in the sense that

:05:22. > :05:29.insurance companies do make climates fight for every penny and

:05:29. > :05:35.really prove their case. -- claimants. But hopefully, we will

:05:35. > :05:40.get the right result for Rosie at the end of the day. Thank you.

:05:40. > :05:43.Later on Look North: Was this the goal that saved Gary Megson's job?

:05:43. > :05:52.We look at the fallout from yesterday's tumultuous Steel City

:05:52. > :05:57.York is one of our most affluent and popular cities - and one of the

:05:57. > :05:59.most expensive. But there are fears that the city will be off-limits to

:05:59. > :06:05.residents on low incomes or benefits because of recent changes

:06:05. > :06:07.in housing benefit. Rents in the city start at

:06:07. > :06:13.substantially more than the maximum amount of money the government will

:06:13. > :06:16.pay out. Here's Danni Hewson. It's quite a complicated equation,

:06:16. > :06:20.but to put it as simply as I can, rents on a fairly basic two-bedroom

:06:20. > :06:24.flat start at an average of �615 a month - the maximum amount that can

:06:24. > :06:26.be claimed toward - that rent in York is now just �500, and that's

:06:26. > :06:36.leaving people like single mum Naomi with massive shortfalls that

:06:36. > :06:38.

:06:38. > :06:44.they can't meet. I just can't afford to be there. I am struggling

:06:44. > :06:48.as it is because it is so high. When I was trying to find where we

:06:48. > :06:53.are now, that was one of the cheapest, but that is expensive, so

:06:53. > :06:56.trying to find somewhere cheaper, I don't know how you can! The changes

:06:56. > :06:59.are hitting people in York harder than almost anywhere else in the

:06:59. > :07:05.country outside of London because of the way in which the

:07:05. > :07:09.Let's compare York's maximum of �500 a calendar month with the �595

:07:09. > :07:13.you could qualify for if you rent in Harrogate, where the market is

:07:13. > :07:16.broadly the same. The reason for the gap is that York's rate is

:07:16. > :07:21.calculated looking at a rental map which takes in areas like Selby

:07:21. > :07:24.where rents are much cheaper. Now if you're thinking it's just people

:07:24. > :07:26.who are unemployed who are taking a hit, consider that the shortfall is

:07:26. > :07:30.pushing people like Naomi onto social housing waiting lists and

:07:30. > :07:40.that means low income workers are falling to the back of the queue

:07:40. > :07:41.

:07:41. > :07:45.Know, it is not even on the equation to move out of York. I

:07:45. > :07:50.need my job to be able to provide for my kids, and my husband works

:07:50. > :07:56.in and around York and covers a wide area, so we need to be in York

:07:56. > :08:00.to be able to provide a roof over our children's heads. All this is

:08:00. > :08:02.bad news for an economy like York's, which relies on its low income

:08:02. > :08:05.workers to staff bars, shops and tourist attractions. Now it's hoped

:08:05. > :08:08.the changes will not only bring down the governments benefits bill

:08:08. > :08:17.but also drive down rents in the private sector to make things more

:08:17. > :08:20.affordable to all of us. We did ask the government for a

:08:20. > :08:28.housing minister to talk to us about the issues in York - but no

:08:28. > :08:35.one was available. Instead they And you can see more about that

:08:35. > :08:37.story on Inside Out at 7.30pm tonight on BBC1.

:08:37. > :08:42.Friends and family of the murdered Doncaster schoolgirl Casey Kearney

:08:42. > :08:45.have raised around �3,500 for her family. Hundreds of people took

:08:45. > :08:48.part in a six-mile memorial walk yesterday from Casey's home in

:08:48. > :08:58.Rossington, to Elmfield Park in the centre of Doncaster where she was

:08:58. > :08:59.

:08:59. > :09:03.stabbed nearly a fortnight ago. Casey's funeral will take place on

:09:03. > :09:06.Friday. Dutch national Edwin van Winsen has

:09:06. > :09:10.become the fourth and final man to be jailed in Britain's largest

:09:10. > :09:13.cannabis importation racket. He received four years for his part in

:09:13. > :09:19.�150 million worth of the drug being brought into the Leeds area

:09:19. > :09:22.from Holland in flower boxes. An actor from Leeds who shot to

:09:22. > :09:26.international stardom in the new version of Wuthering Heights has

:09:26. > :09:29.been sectioned under the Mental Health Act. 24-year-old James

:09:29. > :09:36.Howson from Burmantofts was due to be sentenced by Leeds magistrates

:09:36. > :09:41.today for the racially aggravated harassment of a former girlfriend.

:09:41. > :09:44.The hearing's been adjourned. We've all heard stories of cars

:09:44. > :09:49.being clamped and the penalties charged for parking where you

:09:49. > :09:52.shouldn't. But did you know you can be clamped - even if your engine is

:09:52. > :09:56.running? That's what happened to Dales

:09:56. > :09:59.couple Brian and Naomi Reid this weekend. They handed over �150 to

:09:59. > :10:09.free their car - even thought Brian says he wasn't actually parking.

:10:09. > :10:10.

:10:10. > :10:14.Cathy Killick reports. Brian and his wife Naomi were last

:10:14. > :10:19.in this Skipton car-park on Saturday afternoon. Brent is he

:10:19. > :10:26.pulled up to drop his wife of, kept the engine running while retuned

:10:26. > :10:29.his radio, and was about to drive off when this Land Rover hemmed him

:10:29. > :10:36.in. He could hardly believe what happened next. I could hardly

:10:36. > :10:39.believe it, next thing, I saw him fly under the car, and I saw it

:10:39. > :10:45.rattling about, I got out that he was put in a clamp on the wheel.

:10:45. > :10:48.Never spoke to me. Brain called the police and two community support

:10:48. > :10:57.offices turned up. The police know him, they pleaded with him not to

:10:57. > :11:04.put a clamp on. They said, let him go, that is that. But no, he said.

:11:04. > :11:08.It is parked illegally. The clamper was Gareth Evans. He runs a company

:11:08. > :11:13.which has already earned quite a reputation in Haworth for its over-

:11:13. > :11:18.zealous use of clamps and its insistence on high release fees.

:11:19. > :11:23.Back in Skipton, Naomi was sent to the cash machine to get �150. She

:11:23. > :11:28.was told that be would double. was shaking uncontrollably, because

:11:28. > :11:32.I kept thinking, if somebody was at the ATM machine and I cannot get

:11:32. > :11:38.this money out, I might come back down the alley weight and it might

:11:38. > :11:42.be 300, 600. He was just calling the shots. Mr Evans didn't want to

:11:42. > :11:46.be interviewed on camera, but this did to me on the phone and said he

:11:46. > :11:51.acted within the law at all times. And he can prove it, because he was

:11:51. > :11:54.wearing concealed CCTV at the time. He says the Data Protection Act

:11:54. > :12:00.prevents him from showing me the footage but that he has it should

:12:00. > :12:05.the case come to court. And it made. Naomi claims she was pushed by

:12:05. > :12:08.Gareth Evans as he was removing the clamp. He denies the assault. The

:12:08. > :12:15.police are investigating her allegation, in the meantime, the

:12:15. > :12:18.couple will be sticking to council- run car-parks in future.

:12:18. > :12:20.The Government says it would "not hesitate" in ending its commercial

:12:20. > :12:27.relationship with Sheffield based A-4-E if there's proven evidence of

:12:27. > :12:30.fraud. A police investigation's underway. The chair of the company,

:12:30. > :12:34.Emma Harrison, resigned last week. The company has government

:12:34. > :12:37.contracts to get the long-term unemployed back to work.

:12:37. > :12:42.Calderdale Council is meeting now to decide how to find savings in

:12:42. > :12:51.its annual budget. These were the scenes of protest over cuts last

:12:51. > :12:53.year. The council needs to find �7 million of savings this year.

:12:53. > :12:56.Around 100 jobs are at risk under the proposals.

:12:56. > :12:58.The owners of Wentworth Woodhouse near Rotherham are suing for

:12:58. > :13:02.compensation because they say the house is suffering from mining

:13:02. > :13:05.subsidence. Owners say they're seeking �100 million in

:13:05. > :13:10.compensation from the coal authority.

:13:10. > :13:13.Before 7pm - is Doncaster really part of Scotland? We look at claims

:13:13. > :13:18.that the South Yorkshire town really belongs to England's

:13:18. > :13:28.northern neighbours. And we celebrate 75 years since

:13:28. > :13:36.

:13:36. > :13:40.Smarties were first invented in If it is the birthplace of a well-

:13:40. > :13:49.known small suite, it is the birthday of a small bow the

:13:49. > :13:53.presenter as well. Interesting that. Tanya, what have you got for us?

:13:53. > :13:57.You were at Hillsborough for the Derby, cracking and the sphere.

:13:57. > :13:59.Despite victory in the Steel City derby, the future of the Sheffield

:13:59. > :14:03.Wednesday manager, Gary Megson, still seems uncertain. Chris

:14:03. > :14:06.O'Grady's goal gave them the win over United. The Blades remain

:14:06. > :14:13.second, the Owls close the gap in third. After the match, the

:14:13. > :14:19.Wednesday fans certainly seemed to be behind their manager. I am

:14:19. > :14:25.totally behind Kerry makes him, I would be gutted if he went. I had

:14:25. > :14:31.my doubts about him, but he has got the motoring today. He got it right,

:14:31. > :14:35.he got the team right. It is a great result for us and it is

:14:35. > :14:40.against our local neighbours. That is the only two things we were

:14:40. > :14:43.concerned with. Not only is it a great result, it is a great

:14:43. > :14:50.performance given the magnitude of a Sheffield derby. Rob Staton, who

:14:50. > :14:54.covers Sheffield Wednesday for Radio Sheffield, joins me now. Is

:14:54. > :14:58.this just paper tour, is there really a rift? You have just seen a

:14:58. > :15:01.clip of the goalscorer sprinting to the manager once he has scored,

:15:01. > :15:06.which suggests that the players feel like there's something going

:15:06. > :15:10.on. We saw the captain giving the manager at big bear hug and

:15:10. > :15:17.afterwards Gary makes and says he pills he has taken Sheffield

:15:18. > :15:21.Wednesday on in the last 18 months. If Wednesday are not interested in

:15:21. > :15:25.his services, they would just go somewhere else and be a success.

:15:25. > :15:30.When you put all that together, I think there is something in those

:15:30. > :15:34.and it is something we will monitor. There have been rumours of the

:15:34. > :15:39.chairman talking to other potential managers which is never a good sign.

:15:39. > :15:46.It is not, and there has been talking the National newspapers

:15:46. > :15:51.that the owner has met with David Jones and Paul Ince. There were

:15:51. > :15:59.also reports that carried medicine has reported me than mandarins to

:15:59. > :16:04.the League managers' Association. We will follow that up on BBC Radio

:16:04. > :16:09.Sheffield. But certainly it is an interesting story and slightly

:16:09. > :16:13.strange, given how Sheffield Wednesday are doing in the lead. It

:16:13. > :16:18.is no shame to be behind top athletic and Sheffield United in

:16:18. > :16:24.the table, but it is all about promotion. Do you think he is going

:16:24. > :16:28.to stay or go? It is such a tough question. We are in a position that

:16:28. > :16:33.it could be in the next few days there we see it change even though

:16:33. > :16:37.Wednesday defeated Sheffield United. It could be a case of a few more

:16:37. > :16:40.weeks, we could be looking at the end of the season.

:16:41. > :16:44.It was also a significant weekend for Leeds United and Huddersfield

:16:44. > :16:51.Town. Both teams played their first match under their new managers.

:16:51. > :16:54.Shamir Masri brings you the action from the rest of our teams.

:16:55. > :16:59.Neil Warnock's first game in charge of Leeds turned out be a

:16:59. > :17:04.frustrating trip to Portsmouth. The talking point was this effort from

:17:04. > :17:09.Ross McCormack. Was it over the line? Leeds had the chances to take

:17:09. > :17:13.that lead but could not and of four points off the play-offs. Doncaster

:17:13. > :17:17.were hoping for a win to lift them off the bottom. It was going well

:17:17. > :17:22.with Giles Barnes putting them ahead before half-time. Despite

:17:22. > :17:26.chances to extend their lead, an injury-time equaliser from

:17:26. > :17:31.Peterborough is Doncaster bottom. Barnsley could not do themselves or

:17:31. > :17:35.Doncaster any favours. They could any loose against relegation-

:17:35. > :17:38.threatened Coventry. Simon Grayson enjoyed his quick return to

:17:38. > :17:45.management with a win for promotion-chasing Huddersfield.

:17:45. > :17:50.Jamie McCombe with the opener and Jordan Rhodes marked his return to

:17:50. > :17:55.the scoresheet with a measured chip come shot. It took Chesterfield 45

:17:55. > :18:02.minutes to get going and not county. Fortunately, Jonathan Forte scored

:18:02. > :18:08.the only goal for a win for Chesterfield. It means they are

:18:08. > :18:13.bottom from League One and five. From settee. Bradford City er

:18:13. > :18:19.attracted a record lead to crowd of over 17,000 having slashed ticket

:18:19. > :18:27.prices to just �1. They salvage what could be a vital point keeping

:18:27. > :18:32.them five points clear of the drop zone. Rotherham's four-game

:18:32. > :18:35.unbeaten run was beaten. On to Super League, and Castleford

:18:35. > :18:38.took the opportunity to remember Robbie Millward ahead of their

:18:38. > :18:41.match against Wigan. There was a minute's applause at the Colliseum

:18:41. > :18:45.for the son of head coach, Ian Millward. Robbie died suddenly,

:18:45. > :18:48.aged just 19, last weekend. Castleford went on to lose heavily

:18:48. > :18:50.to Wigan but there were wins for Leeds, Huddersfield and Bradford

:18:50. > :18:56.over the weekend and some spectacular tries, including this

:18:56. > :18:59.one from the Rhinos. It was a team effort, finished off under the

:18:59. > :19:06.posts by Ben Jones-Bishop, and was their opener in the comprehensive

:19:06. > :19:09.victory over Widnes. And you can catch all the weekend's action on

:19:09. > :19:14.the Super League Show tonight at 11.35 - and, trust me, there are

:19:14. > :19:18.some incredible tries to see. In diving, Leeds' Hannah Starling

:19:18. > :19:22.rounded off a wonderful week for our divers at the world cup event

:19:22. > :19:25.in London by winning the dive off in the 3m springboard. It means

:19:25. > :19:28.she's qualified fr the final place for the Olympics, so Great Britain

:19:28. > :19:31.will have a full compliment at the Games.

:19:31. > :19:38.And Leeds boxer Nicola Adams won gold at the Strandja cup in

:19:38. > :19:40.Bulgaria and was awarded best boxer of the tournament. And finally, in

:19:40. > :19:44.squash, Pontefract's James Willstrop is back to number one in

:19:44. > :19:47.the world after beating Egypt's Ramy Ashour in the final of the

:19:47. > :19:57.Davenport North American Open. He replaces Sheffield's Nick Matthew,

:19:57. > :19:58.

:19:58. > :20:02.of course, as the rivalry goes on. That is it from me, it is lovely to

:20:03. > :20:07.have you back. A host of women have tried to keep him company, but we

:20:07. > :20:11.are not just the same. I'm glad be back, especially on a

:20:11. > :20:14.momentous day like Paul's birthday. Next tonight, hold on to your

:20:14. > :20:17.sporrans, because it turns out that Doncaster might belong to Scotland.

:20:17. > :20:21.No, it isn't April 1st, but instead a serious possibility that the town

:20:21. > :20:24.was given to the Scots as a peace token hundreds of years ago and

:20:24. > :20:34.never formally reclaimed. Tom Ingall crosses the border to

:20:34. > :20:34.

:20:55. > :21:00.interesting swearing allegiance to the flag of Scotland? Know. We are

:21:00. > :21:04.proud be Yorkshire in Yorkshire is not in Scotland. From a purely

:21:04. > :21:08.geographical view, the Scottish claim looks tenuous. But consider

:21:08. > :21:16.the history. Contemporary chronicles show the town was to be

:21:16. > :21:21.a way to the Scots to pacified King David. What we have of the set of

:21:21. > :21:25.surviving royal charters to the town. Bike 1194, this document

:21:25. > :21:31.shows Doncaster is paying money to the English game. In other words it

:21:31. > :21:36.is back under old management. not aware of any formal rescinding

:21:36. > :21:41.of the gift. I can think of no formal document which says

:21:41. > :21:47.Doncaster is no longer the property of the King of the Scots. With a

:21:47. > :21:50.bit of imagination you can see how this might work. The stage and

:21:59. > :22:04.should fancy a summer holiday. And it will be easy enough to get the

:22:04. > :22:09.chip shop selling deep-fried haggis. It would bring a lot of changes to

:22:09. > :22:15.Doncaster. To be Scottish? Definitely. You'd get funny bank

:22:15. > :22:21.notes. We get them anyway! He would bring more stuff to the market for

:22:21. > :22:25.a start. Haggis, black pudding. Outside the council house, the

:22:25. > :22:30.flight is blown one way, but you never know. I think I would rather

:22:30. > :22:34.be pulled by Alex Salmond than the three pretenders in England at the

:22:34. > :22:40.moment. Even if that meant you were no longer mayor? But Alex and I

:22:40. > :22:45.would come to some sort of agreement! He would be deputy First

:22:45. > :22:55.Minister! But any real claim to Doncaster may stand on shaky ground.

:22:55. > :23:01.The dream will probably fade. I had been away for four weeks and

:23:01. > :23:10.a lot has changed. It is Paul's birthday and for the first time he

:23:10. > :23:13.has bought cakes. We have here a rather special birthday. Smarties

:23:13. > :23:23.up some did five years old this month. We thought we would

:23:23. > :23:27.

:23:28. > :23:32.investigate the background to that. What a lot of fun you get when you

:23:32. > :23:36.ask for a tube of Smarties! Invented in Yorkshire and beaten

:23:36. > :23:40.around the world, Smarties are one of the oldest types of chocolate

:23:40. > :23:44.sweets and there were made in York until a few years ago. The concept

:23:45. > :23:48.of sugar-coated sugar pieces was brought in Yorkshire from French

:23:48. > :23:52.high society but Rowntrees found a very different kind of customer.

:23:52. > :23:57.Over the past eight decades, they unique packaging has only added to

:23:57. > :24:01.the appeal. The use to make them in cartons but I think the factory

:24:01. > :24:06.were a little bit worried that people would eat the carton all in

:24:06. > :24:10.one go so they started putting them in Q to the get fewer and they are

:24:10. > :24:13.more portionable. This is the tube that people will remember best.

:24:13. > :24:23.This is the one that appeared on pencil cases and that we remember

:24:23. > :24:26.

:24:26. > :24:30.from the 1970s and 1980s. This is my personal collection of Smarties

:24:30. > :24:37.lives that are collected in school. Look at all those, that is a lot. I

:24:38. > :24:43.am impressed! Smarties's first customers are now into their golden

:24:43. > :24:47.age. This week celebrates its 75th birthday this month. Did you know

:26:23. > :26:28.is a lot of cloud. Perhaps thick enough cloud for drizzle over the

:26:28. > :26:33.tops of the hills. You can see the extent of the cloud rolling in from

:26:33. > :26:38.the West. It has just about cleared now. But throughout the next few

:26:38. > :26:43.hours there will be drizzle and hill fog. To the east of high
