That is all from the BBC News at Six. Goodbye. | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
On Monday's Look North: A damning report reveals "serious | :00:00. | :00:07. | |
concern" about the protection given to victims of child sexual | :00:08. | :00:15. | |
exploitation in South Yorkshire. The Crime Commissioner calls for | :00:16. | :00:18. | |
immediate action as it emerges that officers in Doncaster and Rotherham | :00:19. | :00:21. | |
are struggling to cope with their workloads. Wee one to be delivering | :00:22. | :00:32. | |
high`quality, consistent approach to this crime across South Yorkshire | :00:33. | :00:35. | |
and I am determined this will be delivered quickly that we want to. | :00:36. | :00:38. | |
We hear how more detectives are now working on child grooming more than | :00:39. | :00:41. | |
any other crime. Also tonight: LAST POST PLAYS. | :00:42. | :00:44. | |
Yorkshire falls silent to honour those who've lost their lives since | :00:45. | :00:46. | |
the First World War. It can take 30 years to become a | :00:47. | :01:02. | |
master at Lishi. I have metered met Bill... | :01:03. | :01:08. | |
And after a grey day, it is going to be brighter tomorrow. I will be back | :01:09. | :01:10. | |
later with all of the details. Thank you for joining us. | :01:11. | :01:20. | |
First to our main story and the "serious concern" about the | :01:21. | :01:23. | |
protection given to victims of child sexual exploitation by South | :01:24. | :01:26. | |
Yorkshire Police. The criticism comes in a report by Her Majesty's | :01:27. | :01:29. | |
Inspectorate of Constabulary, which was commissioned by South Yorkshire | :01:30. | :01:32. | |
Police and the Crime Commissioner, Shaun Wright. | :01:33. | :01:37. | |
The report found: There's been "a failure of management" at the force. | :01:38. | :01:42. | |
Chief Constable David Crompton has now been told to act immediately. | :01:43. | :01:45. | |
It also found officers had focused more on offences such as burglary | :01:46. | :01:49. | |
and vehicle crime, rather than child sexual exploitation. | :01:50. | :01:50. | |
Inspectors also said there was inconsistency across the force. | :01:51. | :01:54. | |
Staff in Doncaster and Rotherham were struggling with stress and | :01:55. | :01:59. | |
heavy workloads. Here's our political editor Len Tingle. | :02:00. | :02:05. | |
The years, police across the country fail to recognise the danger to | :02:06. | :02:09. | |
vulnerable young girls who had been groomed and sexually exploited by | :02:10. | :02:13. | |
criminal gangs. Bashir, MPs criticised South Yorkshire police in | :02:14. | :02:17. | |
particular by having one of the worst records ``last year. Slow to | :02:18. | :02:21. | |
react and not giving enough priority to protecting the victims or | :02:22. | :02:25. | |
prosecuting the criminals. Today was Mike report by Her Majesty is | :02:26. | :02:33. | |
Inspectorate, the standards watchdog, essentially, says there | :02:34. | :02:39. | |
has been a failure to improve, not enough training for all front line | :02:40. | :02:44. | |
staff and more resources needs been put into front line protection, but | :02:45. | :02:48. | |
it also pointed that implementation has been at best patchy and its | :02:49. | :02:53. | |
cause for concern. What we found was in the Sheffield division, they had | :02:54. | :02:57. | |
very good arrangements, where staff on both the police and its partner | :02:58. | :03:02. | |
agencies were working well together in one office and were able to | :03:03. | :03:05. | |
provide a good level of service. When we looked at the other three | :03:06. | :03:09. | |
districts, Rotherham, Doncaster and Barnsley, the picture was less | :03:10. | :03:14. | |
clear, not as well integrated, and the level of service provided, | :03:15. | :03:17. | |
particularly to the victims of child sexual exploitation, were not | :03:18. | :03:22. | |
strong. Chief Constable David Crompton says the report is not | :03:23. | :03:27. | |
entirely critical. I have over 60 detectives working on child sexual | :03:28. | :03:31. | |
exploitation and that is significantly more than other types | :03:32. | :03:34. | |
of serious crime. So everybody wants their children to be safe, everyone | :03:35. | :03:37. | |
wants to feel they are doing as much as they can. No matter what you do, | :03:38. | :03:42. | |
you can always do more and I do accept the comments made in the | :03:43. | :03:46. | |
report but what I also say is that we have significantly increased the | :03:47. | :03:49. | |
number of prosecutions we have got the child sexual exploitation. This | :03:50. | :03:54. | |
whole issue is a major test for Police and Crime Commissioner is, | :03:55. | :03:57. | |
elected exactly a year ago to hold local forces to account. South | :03:58. | :04:02. | |
Yorkshire is a big place but we don't want to be deliver one part of | :04:03. | :04:06. | |
it, we want to be delivering a consistent, high quality approach to | :04:07. | :04:10. | |
tackling this crime across South Yorkshire. This will not be the end | :04:11. | :04:14. | |
of the matter. How majesties Inspectorate is coming back again to | :04:15. | :04:19. | |
look at the progress in six months time `` Her Majesty's Inspectorate. | :04:20. | :04:23. | |
Communities across the whole of Yorkshire came together this morning | :04:24. | :04:27. | |
to mark Armistice Day. A two`minute silence 11 o'clock commemorated the | :04:28. | :04:30. | |
end of the First World War. It's a time to pay respect to those | :04:31. | :04:34. | |
who've died and reflect on the value of peace. Cathy Killick reports. | :04:35. | :04:45. | |
LAST POST PLAYS. Old and young, town and country, | :04:46. | :04:51. | |
military and civilian. Armistice Day unites us all in remembrance of the | :04:52. | :04:55. | |
dead and the cost of war. On the going down of the sun and in the | :04:56. | :05:02. | |
morning, we will remember them. In York, around 150 service personnel | :05:03. | :05:06. | |
gathered at the age of a parade square to observe the two`minute | :05:07. | :05:10. | |
silence. The poppy is a potent symbol here. Many of these troops | :05:11. | :05:14. | |
have seen conflict at first and lost friends. I think that when I was out | :05:15. | :05:22. | |
in Afghanistan last time, I went out to other bases and met a few people | :05:23. | :05:25. | |
who unfortunately did not make it to the end of the tour, so that is what | :05:26. | :05:30. | |
I was thinking about. It is the past generations as well, but for me, | :05:31. | :05:36. | |
that is what I was thinking about. Add the military cemetery in | :05:37. | :05:38. | |
Catterick Garrison, soldiers also came together to remember those who | :05:39. | :05:45. | |
had fallen. While in Barnsley, young and old stood side`by`side outside | :05:46. | :05:51. | |
the town hall. In Wakefield, residents at Sycamore nursing home, | :05:52. | :05:54. | |
many with direct experience of war, took time to reflect, and the | :05:55. | :05:59. | |
lessons they learned were passed to the younger generations in schools | :06:00. | :06:02. | |
across the region. St Fagans in Harrogate paused in lessons, and | :06:03. | :06:08. | |
Filey Academy took time out to stage a simple ceremony. We are proud | :06:09. | :06:15. | |
about that. We all have a laugh and a joke but it is nice that we have | :06:16. | :06:20. | |
that serious side where we can think about these things and we were quite | :06:21. | :06:23. | |
happy to do that. Per serving troops, the services demonstrated | :06:24. | :06:32. | |
today makes a big difference. What is heartening is to see how it has | :06:33. | :06:35. | |
become higher profile in recent years, whether it is the judges on | :06:36. | :06:39. | |
the X Factor wearing poppies, Robbie Williams wearing his last night, | :06:40. | :06:43. | |
that is hugely important to all of us. The Armistice prey is called the | :06:44. | :06:49. | |
justice, peace and reconciliation. After their two minutes remembrance, | :06:50. | :06:54. | |
that is the mission that these troops is no business resumes `` the | :06:55. | :06:55. | |
Armistice preys. Later on Look North: | :06:56. | :07:02. | |
Making a difference ` we meet the young carers getting a well earned | :07:03. | :07:05. | |
rest, thanks to your Children In Need donations. | :07:06. | :07:07. | |
Former miners who've been told they will no longer receive their | :07:08. | :07:12. | |
concessionary fuel allowances have been protesting outside the | :07:13. | :07:16. | |
headquarters of UK Coal today. The protest was led by Bassetlaw MP | :07:17. | :07:19. | |
John Mann, who's been campaigning for the allowance to be reinstated. | :07:20. | :07:25. | |
Ex`miners and widows were entitled to free coal until the firm went | :07:26. | :07:28. | |
into administration in the summer, and they say the allowance was part | :07:29. | :07:31. | |
of their wages and redundancy package. Emma Glasbey reports. | :07:32. | :07:39. | |
They say they were promised call for live, but now things have changed. | :07:40. | :07:46. | |
UK Coal is in administration and fuel allowances for these retired | :07:47. | :07:50. | |
miners have stopped. Today, they campaigned in the rain outside UK | :07:51. | :07:57. | |
Coal's headquarters near Doncaster. These are minors, miners widows who | :07:58. | :08:01. | |
are being hit, people who do not have access to gas, don't have | :08:02. | :08:06. | |
access to oil, they rely on coal to heat their homes. They are going to | :08:07. | :08:10. | |
be going short on heating this winter. That, in today's society, is | :08:11. | :08:14. | |
dangerous, it is not right, it is unfair. And the coal that they have | :08:15. | :08:23. | |
add storage is running low. That will probably last five or six | :08:24. | :08:27. | |
weeks, if I am quite sparing with it. John Dean worked underground in | :08:28. | :08:34. | |
North Yorkshire. He relied on his coal allowance and no could face a | :08:35. | :08:41. | |
bill of thousands of fans to install a gas boiler. I have had this fuel | :08:42. | :08:46. | |
allowance for 30 years. It runs the central heating, hot water | :08:47. | :08:50. | |
everything. We received it with 20 years when it was privatised and I | :08:51. | :08:54. | |
don't see why it is stopped now. I believe it is the Government's | :08:55. | :08:58. | |
responsibility. UK Coal says the fuel allowances had to be stopped to | :08:59. | :09:04. | |
protect jobs. We fully understand the upset caused amongst pensioners, | :09:05. | :09:07. | |
it is not what we intended at all and other groups were affected but | :09:08. | :09:11. | |
regrettably, that is what happens in administration. The critical thing | :09:12. | :09:17. | |
was saving 2,000 jobs. The chancellor George Osborne has said | :09:18. | :09:20. | |
he is personally looking into this matter and hopes to have good news. | :09:21. | :09:24. | |
Bad news cannot come soon enough for the hundreds no longer receiving | :09:25. | :09:29. | |
coal. `` that news. The Bradford`based shoe chain | :09:30. | :09:31. | |
Barratts has gone into administration for a third time. The | :09:32. | :09:35. | |
company employs just over 1,000 people in the UK and Ireland. It | :09:36. | :09:38. | |
previously went into administration in 2009 and 2011, but has since been | :09:39. | :09:44. | |
through a major restructure. The administrators say they're seeking | :09:45. | :09:47. | |
to sell the business as a going concern, but that redundancies and | :09:48. | :09:52. | |
store closures cannot be ruled out. The Education Secretary Michael Gove | :09:53. | :09:55. | |
has criticised schools in Bradford, saying standards have been appalling | :09:56. | :10:01. | |
for years. He was responding to a House of Commons question about the | :10:02. | :10:04. | |
city's Kings Science Academy from Bradford South MP Gerry Sutcliffe. | :10:05. | :10:11. | |
The school was visited by David Cameron when it was opened as part | :10:12. | :10:15. | |
of the free schools programme in 2011. But West Yorkshire Police are | :10:16. | :10:18. | |
investigating the school after it was forced to repay almost ?77,000 | :10:19. | :10:25. | |
when a grant was misused. It is certainly the case that there are | :10:26. | :10:28. | |
questions to be answered responsible for the academy, but one of the | :10:29. | :10:33. | |
things that I would stress is that all academies and free schools are | :10:34. | :10:37. | |
more rigourously audited and held accountable for local authority | :10:38. | :10:40. | |
schools. I would also stressed that the quality of education in Bradford | :10:41. | :10:43. | |
for many years has been appalling. Now, this Friday on BBC One, it's | :10:44. | :10:48. | |
Children In Need, of course. Last year, you helped raise ?46 million. | :10:49. | :10:51. | |
But where did the money go? All this week, we'll feature some of | :10:52. | :10:54. | |
the charities which benefitted. The Leeds Children's Charity offers | :10:55. | :10:57. | |
short breaks to children who really need them. From young carers to | :10:58. | :11:01. | |
children from very disturbed backgrounds, the holiday centre in | :11:02. | :11:04. | |
Silverdale gives much needed respite and a chance to just be children | :11:05. | :11:06. | |
again. Shirley Henry reports. Games, fun and laughter. A short | :11:07. | :11:24. | |
break for children from a difficult background. These youngsters are all | :11:25. | :11:31. | |
carers. Some of the young carers, they are really stressed out and | :11:32. | :11:34. | |
they really need a holiday. Sometimes their parents cannot go or | :11:35. | :11:38. | |
it is too much money, so Silverdale provided that for free. It is a | :11:39. | :11:43. | |
chance to forget. To relax and forget about everything. | :11:44. | :11:54. | |
I had taken care of my mum and stuff. It is just a struggle | :11:55. | :12:01. | |
sometimes. I can do stuff that most people my age can't really do. | :12:02. | :12:12. | |
We get to go swimming. You are never bored. And you get biscuits. Leeds | :12:13. | :12:23. | |
Children's Charity, also known as Silverdale, has been providing | :12:24. | :12:26. | |
holidays for young people for 100 years. We are not sending them to | :12:27. | :12:32. | |
Disneyland you know, or giving them an out of world experience. They are | :12:33. | :12:38. | |
children who just need to be lifted out of very difficult situations and | :12:39. | :12:42. | |
given a very simple break, and for that, we don't need millions of | :12:43. | :12:46. | |
pounds, but we do need a few thousand just to help them, and to | :12:47. | :12:51. | |
help those children see there is a different way of life. The charity | :12:52. | :12:57. | |
helps 500 children from Leeds every year and plans to continue. | :12:58. | :13:07. | |
Every penny is well spent. It is Children In Need day big`time on | :13:08. | :13:10. | |
Friday. We're having our very own event at the National Media Museum | :13:11. | :13:14. | |
in Bradford. It's free to come along. Just turn up between 5:30pm | :13:15. | :13:17. | |
and 9:30pm. Ian White and Keeley will be there. | :13:18. | :13:22. | |
We will be live on BBC One throughout the night. In the | :13:23. | :13:26. | |
meantime, you can help us by telling us what amazing things you're doing | :13:27. | :13:29. | |
to raise funds this year Before seven o'clock: | :13:30. | :13:31. | |
Never too old to learn. We meet the 89`year`old who's gone | :13:32. | :13:34. | |
back to the classroom to learn the ancient art of Lishi. | :13:35. | :13:44. | |
And I am at the White Rose to restore awards, which will be | :13:45. | :13:46. | |
celebrating the very best of the Yorkshire tourist industry. `` to | :13:47. | :13:52. | |
restore awards. That is a lovely dress she is | :13:53. | :13:56. | |
wearing. We will see it a bit later. Now, sport. | :13:57. | :13:59. | |
One of the most`high profile figures in Yorkshire football dramatically | :14:00. | :14:03. | |
stepped down at the weekend. John Ryan resigned as chairman of | :14:04. | :14:06. | |
Doncaster Rovers just before his team took on Barnsley in a South | :14:07. | :14:08. | |
Yorkshire derby. After 15 years at the helm of the | :14:09. | :14:15. | |
club he's supported since he was a boy, Ryan has walked away after | :14:16. | :14:18. | |
falling out with the other directors. Ian Bucknell reports. | :14:19. | :14:23. | |
The crowd sang his name and queued to shake his hand after which time | :14:24. | :14:33. | |
to say goodbye. John Ryan's time with Doncaster ended the way it | :14:34. | :14:39. | |
started, on the terraces with the fans. Just before kick`off on | :14:40. | :14:42. | |
Saturday, he resigned as chairman over a disagreement over a possible | :14:43. | :14:47. | |
takeover. I only want what is best for the club. I brought a great deal | :14:48. | :14:54. | |
to the club, which has been rejected by some of the shareholders. I | :14:55. | :14:59. | |
improved it, people went behind my back and I thought that was totally | :15:00. | :15:04. | |
out of order. And over to them, no. Let's see what they can do. It seems | :15:05. | :15:08. | |
the relationship between John Ryan and the other major shareholders has | :15:09. | :15:15. | |
broken down. In the summer, Ryan attracted a takeover bid from an | :15:16. | :15:19. | |
Irish consortium. He believed the deal would bring in new investment | :15:20. | :15:22. | |
to push the club into the top flight of English football. His fellow | :15:23. | :15:28. | |
directors turned it down. I only regret that I didn't get that chance | :15:29. | :15:31. | |
to get the club in the Premier League. They say we haven't got the | :15:32. | :15:36. | |
fan base. If we were in the Premier League playing Manchester United, | :15:37. | :15:38. | |
believe me, we would have a full house. John Ryan leaves a legacy of | :15:39. | :15:44. | |
success. For promotions, victory in the Wembley play`off, a major trophy | :15:45. | :15:50. | |
and a place in the championship. He says he will remain with the | :15:51. | :15:54. | |
supporters in the stands but leaves the boardroom concerned about the | :15:55. | :15:57. | |
club's ambitions. Ian Bucknell joins us in the studio | :15:58. | :16:03. | |
now. I wasting John Ryan is Mr Doncaster Rovers. How can it have | :16:04. | :16:07. | |
come to this? He clearly not. He is. That he is clearly angry. He | :16:08. | :16:12. | |
is. It is hard to imagine Doncaster | :16:13. | :16:18. | |
Rovers without him, but while he has been the figurehead, he has not | :16:19. | :16:23. | |
wholly owned the club since 2007, when he sold the majority of the | :16:24. | :16:26. | |
shares to Terry Bramall and Dick Watson. So they had shared ownership | :16:27. | :16:30. | |
and the money at the club, and that is ultimately where it has broken | :16:31. | :16:33. | |
down. These two gentlemen have a bit of | :16:34. | :16:36. | |
money between them, so it is not as if they are going cap in hand to the | :16:37. | :16:39. | |
bank. Exactly. John Ryan says he is | :16:40. | :16:47. | |
leaving the club in good health. They don't have any debts, they have | :16:48. | :16:49. | |
two very wealthy men on the board who are still there and there is | :16:50. | :16:52. | |
still the possibility of a deal with the Irish consortium. What they do | :16:53. | :16:55. | |
lose is John Ryan's enthusiasm. He is a dreamer and he dreamt John | :16:56. | :17:04. | |
``Doncaster Rovers all the way to the championship. He wants to go to | :17:05. | :17:07. | |
the premiership and some people do not think they can do it, they want | :17:08. | :17:10. | |
to consolidate in the lower leagues, so how will they fare | :17:11. | :17:13. | |
without Jon driving them forward? Does it mean the only way out of the | :17:14. | :17:17. | |
championship is now via relegation? Now for some action from the | :17:18. | :17:20. | |
weekend's football, here's Danny Carpenter. | :17:21. | :17:27. | |
Break the league action for most of this weekend, but Jorg's FA Cup | :17:28. | :17:32. | |
opponents were fellow League two strugglers Bristol Rovers. `` | :17:33. | :17:38. | |
York's opponents. Ryan Jarvis mopped up a bit of a mess but Elliot | :17:39. | :17:42. | |
Richards equalised as for defenders failed to make a challenge. And then | :17:43. | :17:48. | |
this happened. An absolute belter in anybody's league. Or cup for that | :17:49. | :17:52. | |
matter. Bristol then scored twice to take the lead, but with three | :17:53. | :17:56. | |
minutes left, an equaliser by Wes Fletcher meant there was to be | :17:57. | :18:00. | |
another meeting. These two could be sick at the sight of each other by | :18:01. | :18:04. | |
the end of the season. The draw also throughout the Yorkshire derby but | :18:05. | :18:08. | |
it wasn't much of a contest. Kieran a guard had rather ahead and | :18:09. | :18:13. | |
by half`time, it should have been three, but it took until 62 minutes | :18:14. | :18:21. | |
for Alex Revel to double the lead. Then it was three, and a bit of a | :18:22. | :18:26. | |
sorry day for Bradford. Sheffield United faced a tricky trip to | :18:27. | :18:30. | |
Colchester but were two up by half`time. Harry Maguire got the | :18:31. | :18:35. | |
first, it is anybody's Guess who got the second. Fortunes changed at | :18:36. | :18:40. | |
half`time, with Colchester drawing level before Chris Porter scored | :18:41. | :18:46. | |
from the spot and Sheffield United were through. Halifax poked their | :18:47. | :18:51. | |
heads above the Conference parapet, only to be battered by MK Dons. Lee | :18:52. | :18:56. | |
Gregory's goal was the only high point in their day. Chesterfield | :18:57. | :19:01. | |
welcome to the part`timers of Daventry, but only to a point. Gary | :19:02. | :19:04. | |
Roberts with the first, Jimmy Ryan with the clincher. The most | :19:05. | :19:09. | |
noteworthy performance in the league was Ross McCormack's who scored all | :19:10. | :19:15. | |
four believes as they won away at Charlton. To catch up on the rest of | :19:16. | :19:19. | |
the action, it is on the BBC iPlayer. `` who scored all four for | :19:20. | :19:26. | |
a crispest Leeds. It's been quite a year for Yorkshire | :19:27. | :19:30. | |
as a tourist destination and tonight, the best of the best are | :19:31. | :19:33. | |
being celebrated at a glitzy awards do. The industry now brings around | :19:34. | :19:37. | |
?7 billion to the region's economy each year and with the prospect of | :19:38. | :19:41. | |
the Tour de France for 2014, that's expected to sky rocket. | :19:42. | :19:43. | |
So who are this year's hotly tipped nominees and what have they done to | :19:44. | :19:47. | |
stand out from the crowd? Danni Hewson is at the ceremony and joins | :19:48. | :19:49. | |
us now. each year and with the prospect of | :19:50. | :19:50. | |
the Tour de France for 2014, Yes, what a difference a year makes. This | :19:51. | :19:56. | |
time last year, I was here at the awards, which are about to start, | :19:57. | :19:59. | |
and we web owning the weather, which had brought some our attractions to | :20:00. | :20:04. | |
their knees. `` we were bemoaning the weather. We have had the | :20:05. | :20:09. | |
third`best region to visit in the Lonely Planet Guide, and there is a | :20:10. | :20:16. | |
cycle race coming next year. So what's bringing people back # Is at | :20:17. | :20:21. | |
the scenery, the food, or that there is now like a Yorkshire man or a | :20:22. | :20:25. | |
woman? I have been touring Yorkshire and | :20:26. | :20:28. | |
seeing some of the nominees for this year's White Rose awards. | :20:29. | :20:40. | |
The In prides itself at going that extra mile for its customers, so | :20:41. | :20:49. | |
when the stove broke during morning breakfast, the chef raced down the | :20:50. | :20:52. | |
road to continue cooking breakfast in his own home. We just had to put | :20:53. | :20:57. | |
the fire out, continue, run home. My partner was saying, blimey, | :20:58. | :21:03. | |
wondering what was happening, and said I was ever so white, but we | :21:04. | :21:06. | |
just cracked on, brought it back again and that is what we did. | :21:07. | :21:12. | |
Everyone was happy. Keeping people happy is top priority for the staff | :21:13. | :21:15. | |
at Doncaster's tourist information office. You may be surprised to | :21:16. | :21:22. | |
learn the town has over 12 million day visitors every year, coming to | :21:23. | :21:28. | |
enjoy spectacles like Saint Leger, and the wildlife park. That is more | :21:29. | :21:31. | |
than baffled Stratford`upon`Avon and staff here are working hard to | :21:32. | :21:34. | |
change misguided opinions that they have nothing to offer. We need to | :21:35. | :21:41. | |
tell people to have a fresh look at Doncaster, the Heritage. People | :21:42. | :21:43. | |
don't realise Doncaster is older than York and how many wonderful | :21:44. | :21:47. | |
buildings thereof. The story that Doncaster has to tell, we are an | :21:48. | :21:52. | |
important Roman town, we are on the oldest road map in the world. A | :21:53. | :22:01. | |
slightly new arrival to the Yorkshire to risk seen is Marco | :22:02. | :22:14. | |
Gabbiadini. `` to tourist scene. He hung up his boots to run a B with | :22:15. | :22:18. | |
his wife. It is a different thing to do, but I come from an era where | :22:19. | :22:22. | |
footballers had to work for a living. It is no hardship, we knew | :22:23. | :22:26. | |
it was going to happen, so you have to find something different to do. | :22:27. | :22:31. | |
Different, rewarding and one of the nominees for B and B of the year. | :22:32. | :22:38. | |
Very briefly, we have the Tour de France coming next year. It is not | :22:39. | :22:43. | |
going everywhere, so how do other places capitalise? It is coming to | :22:44. | :22:48. | |
Yorkshire, that is the main thing. We would not have got the lonely | :22:49. | :22:52. | |
planet award that we talked about in your introduction were it not for it | :22:53. | :23:00. | |
coming to Yorkshire. The cycling legacy will be Pan Yorkshire, the | :23:01. | :23:04. | |
business legacy which his starting already would be Pan Yorkshire and | :23:05. | :23:09. | |
the sporting legacy will be right away rapidly across Yorkshire. If | :23:10. | :23:12. | |
you are running a business in Yorkshire, 2014 will be your year. | :23:13. | :23:17. | |
Thank you very much, we will be back at 10:25pm with some of the awards. | :23:18. | :23:23. | |
They say you're never too old to learn. Tonight, we meet a man who's | :23:24. | :23:27. | |
proved age is no barrier to studying an ancient Chinese culture. | :23:28. | :23:30. | |
Bill Hart is 89 and from Keighley. And he's now Leeds Trinity | :23:31. | :23:34. | |
University's oldest student. Ian White has | :23:35. | :23:38. | |
if proof were needed that you are never too old to learn, then take a | :23:39. | :23:42. | |
look at 89`year`old Bill Hart. Bill is studying at Leeds Trinity | :23:43. | :23:53. | |
University to become a professional coach at the tranquil art of Lishi, | :23:54. | :23:59. | |
a form of Tai Chi. I have been to China many times and I wanted to | :24:00. | :24:07. | |
have a go at Tai Chi, and I looked it up on the web and the first thing | :24:08. | :24:10. | |
that came up was Lishi, and I thought, I will start with that. | :24:11. | :24:15. | |
Bill is now something of an expert, having completed the first year of | :24:16. | :24:19. | |
his junior foundation degree. At the end of it, he could end up teaching | :24:20. | :24:24. | |
classes like this. I do young People's classes and old peoples | :24:25. | :24:28. | |
classes, but what I like in them is people who are still young, and that | :24:29. | :24:32. | |
is the amazing thing about Bill. He does not know how old he is, he is | :24:33. | :24:42. | |
still a young lad. What good does this to me? You are learning | :24:43. | :24:50. | |
sensitivity. You are learning to sense what I'm going to do. | :24:51. | :25:00. | |
Doreen, you won't hit me, will you? No. You have been stretching your | :25:01. | :25:10. | |
arms. Oh, you have to do it right. This is your first time, how are you | :25:11. | :25:14. | |
finding it? It is very therapeutic and relaxing, and stimulating. I | :25:15. | :25:19. | |
want to do it and I want to do to the best of my ability, and I shall | :25:20. | :25:27. | |
keep on until I drop. This is a far cry from the Look North package I | :25:28. | :25:35. | |
usually do, very tranquil, and Bill can do it, you can do it too. | :25:36. | :25:44. | |
Sensitivity. Tranquillity. Words we don't know. | :25:45. | :25:48. | |
He looked a bit like Robin Hood there. OK, let's have the prospects | :25:49. | :25:52. | |
for the weather. Like he had a bow and arrow. On with | :25:53. | :25:58. | |
the forecast. It hasn't been a very nice day, a lot of cloud but it has | :25:59. | :26:02. | |
been mild. Tomorrow, cooler but brighter with spells of sunshine, | :26:03. | :26:06. | |
because a brief ridge of high pressure is going to build through | :26:07. | :26:09. | |
tomorrow and this week, it doesn't look like we will have too bad a | :26:10. | :26:13. | |
deal with the weather. Thursday, there could be a few showers. A lot | :26:14. | :26:17. | |
of tired today and more rain in the forecast before it improves | :26:18. | :26:22. | |
tomorrow. `` a lot of cloud. A lot of drizzle, clearing away south | :26:23. | :26:28. | |
eastwards later in the night, clear spells developing and temperatures | :26:29. | :26:33. | |
dropping to three or four degrees perhaps in the countryside, with the | :26:34. | :26:37. | |
risk of a touch of Frost. The sun will rise in the morning at nearly | :26:38. | :26:45. | |
7:30am, setting at nearly 4:15pm. We start tomorrow on a bright note, any | :26:46. | :26:50. | |
cloud across the South will thin and break and move away south eastwards | :26:51. | :26:53. | |
and we are looking at a fine day. We cannot rule out the odd shower over | :26:54. | :26:58. | |
the hills, but are generally a dry and fine day with plenty of | :26:59. | :27:03. | |
sunshine. Temperatures today reached around 13 or 14 in the Vale of York. | :27:04. | :27:07. | |
It will be cooler tomorrow, so some places will stay in single figures | :27:08. | :27:11. | |
but most of the towns and cities will get up to around ten or 11 | :27:12. | :27:18. | |
degrees, 50 Fahrenheit. Wednesday, a chilly start, probably the coolest | :27:19. | :27:20. | |
morning of the week with variable amounts of cloud but largely drive. | :27:21. | :27:25. | |
The cloud will increase because we have rain and strong winds into | :27:26. | :27:30. | |
Thursday. It will remain windy on Thursday but there will be showers | :27:31. | :27:34. | |
around and 12 improve on Friday. Children In Need will be looking | :27:35. | :27:39. | |
drive. The word I was looking for earlier was cut of all. | :27:40. | :27:42. | |
And you did say drivel instead of drizzle. | :27:43. | :27:46. | |
Thank you very much indeed come and enjoy the rest of your | :27:47. | :27:48. |
