freezing cold and wet. But I am on Scarborough seafront to see a love

:00:59.:01:09.

Good evening ` and welcome to Look North. York College has been ordered

:01:10.:01:15.

to pay ?225,000 over the death of a three`year`old at their nursery.

:01:16.:01:18.

Lydia Bishop died when she became caught in a rope left on the slide

:01:19.:01:22.

in the playground on her first full day at the nursery. Last week a

:01:23.:01:26.

worker was cleared of Lydia's manslaughter, but today the judge

:01:27.:01:29.

criticised the nursery for falling" a long way below standard" in

:01:30.:01:32.

failing to enforce safety measures. John Cundy has the story.

:01:33.:01:44.

Lydia Bishop died on her first day at the nursery. She was unsupervised

:01:45.:01:49.

and she was strangled by a rope someone had left on the playground

:01:50.:01:53.

slide. It was 20 minutes before nursery staff even realise she was

:01:54.:01:59.

missing. Last week, is jury at Leeds Crown Court cleared a nursery

:02:00.:02:04.

assistant of any blame for the death of Lydia that she had been looking

:02:05.:02:08.

after. Your college were found guilty of breaches of health and

:02:09.:02:14.

safety legislation. `` York College. The trial judge said that York

:02:15.:02:18.

College had a hike up ability for the death of Lydia Bishop. Such an

:02:19.:02:25.

accident, was both foreseeable and foreseen in both `` for not

:02:26.:02:32.

protecting children on the slide in the playground. The judge continued

:02:33.:02:36.

and said that he considered that your college were guilty of two

:02:37.:02:40.

Syria's failings. They were the more tragic because they took place

:02:41.:02:43.

against the backdrop of the generally careful and thoughtful

:02:44.:02:47.

approach to health and safety matters at the college. The nursery

:02:48.:02:54.

never reopened after Lydia's death. Your college say they remain deeply

:02:55.:02:59.

saddened by the events of 17th of September 2012. We are truly sorry

:03:00.:03:03.

it has happened and we remain committed to learning from these

:03:04.:03:07.

tragic events. The fines imposed on your college is the final chapter in

:03:08.:03:13.

the 18 month saga since the tragic death of Lydia Bishop. Nursing

:03:14.:03:17.

assistant Sophie redhead, cleared of blame, but the college found wanting

:03:18.:03:22.

as they fail to protect the little girl who had been in their care.

:03:23.:03:28.

Tricia Pritchard is from The Voice, a union which represents early years

:03:29.:03:34.

and childcare workers. Good evening. The college has been fined more than

:03:35.:04:04.

?200,000, is that enough? I I don't know that any of us would believe

:04:05.:04:07.

that would any amount would reflect what had happened. Parents and

:04:08.:04:13.

guardians would want to know what procedures should be in place so

:04:14.:04:17.

that a child should not be left unsupervised for 20 minutes.

:04:18.:04:21.

Children should not be left unsupervised for any length of time.

:04:22.:04:25.

Policies and procedures are to protect the children and the

:04:26.:04:30.

practitioners. We should have health and safety procedures in place, risk

:04:31.:04:34.

assessments done on a regular basis and everybody working in that

:04:35.:04:40.

nursery must be familiar with what is expected of them, what they are

:04:41.:04:44.

expected to do since they `` if they see anything going on. It is

:04:45.:04:50.

everybody's responsibility, from bottom up. We are there to care for

:04:51.:04:53.

the children and we must all be accountable. Last week, the Serb ``

:04:54.:05:00.

the nursery worker was cleared of manslaughter, where should the

:05:01.:05:06.

responsibility lies? Ultimately, it is the responsibility of the owner

:05:07.:05:12.

of the nursery. It is up to them on a to put the policies in place. On a

:05:13.:05:20.

daily basis, it is up to the senior team. It does not stop there. It is

:05:21.:05:26.

everybody's responsibility. They must make sure that the policy and

:05:27.:05:31.

procedures are in place and they are adhered to. Even students on

:05:32.:05:34.

placements must know what is expected of them, what they are

:05:35.:05:40.

responsible for. And also, that there is a consequence of not

:05:41.:05:45.

following policies and procedures. It does not stop at the owners, it

:05:46.:05:50.

is responsibility from top to bottom and back`up.

:05:51.:05:53.

Two young brothers from Doncaster have undergone a pioneering

:05:54.:05:55.

operation at Leeds General Infirmary this morning. Ethan and Kyle Roper

:05:56.:05:59.

have had the UK's first miniature heart monitors fitted as an implant.

:06:00.:06:04.

The monitor can wirelessly transmit any unusual heart rhythms direct to

:06:05.:06:06.

the hospital, which will help diagnose any problems. Cathy

:06:07.:06:10.

Killick's report contains some surgical footage.

:06:11.:06:20.

Brothers Ethan and Kyle Roper are clearly enjoying making medical

:06:21.:06:25.

history. The boys are full of life and healthy outwardly but both have

:06:26.:06:29.

had an extreme collapses recently. Very worrying, perhaps indicative of

:06:30.:06:35.

a heart problem. With Kyle, I remember got out of the bath and we

:06:36.:06:39.

got to the third step on the stairs, and he blacked out. He remembers

:06:40.:06:43.

waking up on the bottom of the stairs, on the floor. And what about

:06:44.:06:50.

even? He was upstairs, going to the toilet. I went up when I heard a

:06:51.:06:57.

thud and I found him on the landing floor. The boys have been fitted

:06:58.:07:02.

with a monitor just under their skin. They can be sent ``

:07:03.:07:06.

information can be sent to the hospital wirelessly. The technology

:07:07.:07:12.

has been around since 2006 but this is the one that the boys are going

:07:13.:07:16.

to get. Much smaller and more appropriate for a child. Right, do

:07:17.:07:22.

you know what this is? Yes, that monitors your heart. Where does it

:07:23.:07:32.

go? About there. There. The procedure is done under general

:07:33.:07:35.

anaesthetic and takes just a few minutes. You are injecting it like

:07:36.:07:41.

the chips they using horses and dogs. There were children at the

:07:42.:07:49.

moment who have finally turned and you try to capture those of on

:07:50.:07:57.

recordings. This can remain active for 23 years. Something will happen

:07:58.:08:07.

`` active for up to three years. In those three years, you can record

:08:08.:08:12.

it. I am impressed. I think he will be. The boys will soon be up and

:08:13.:08:18.

about. The monitors will show if their hearts need any treatment. If

:08:19.:08:23.

so, the new technology might just have saved their lives. Wonderful.

:08:24.:08:28.

Later on Look North, the Steel City still with a chance of the

:08:29.:08:31.

silverware as both Sheffield sides prepare for their latest FA Cup

:08:32.:08:34.

ties. Some news in brief now. And a

:08:35.:08:38.

maintenance worker has been jailed for four years after a toddler fell

:08:39.:08:42.

from the fourth floor of a block of flats in Sheffield. Robert Warner

:08:43.:08:45.

was found guilty of manslaughter by gross negligence at Sheffield Crown

:08:46.:08:50.

Court. He was responsible for maintenance at the flats, where

:08:51.:08:53.

Ryaheen Banimuslem fell through a gap in the safety barrier in 2012.

:08:54.:08:58.

Today police paid tribute to the two`year`old girl and her family. It

:08:59.:09:09.

is a good time to pay tribute to her family, who have displayed

:09:10.:09:14.

tremendous strength and dignity throughout these months. I think the

:09:15.:09:20.

verdict from the jury identified that this is unavoidable incident

:09:21.:09:26.

and it should not have resulted in the death of eight two`year`old.

:09:27.:09:30.

34`year`old Rotherham man David Sindall is due to appear at

:09:31.:09:33.

Sheffield Crown Court on Monday charged with the murder of haulage

:09:34.:09:36.

company boss Dean Armitage. Mr Armitage suffered serious injuries

:09:37.:09:39.

in an incident outside his home on Skiers View Road in Hoyland near

:09:40.:09:43.

Barnsley in August. He died nearly three weeks later in hospital. Mr

:09:44.:09:47.

Sindall entered a not guilty plea in October and the trial is set to last

:09:48.:09:52.

for ten days. An increasing number of families in

:09:53.:09:55.

Yorkshire are choosing to take their children out of school and to

:09:56.:09:59.

educate them at home. So what makes a family decide to go down this

:10:00.:10:03.

route? Joe Inwood has been to meet two families who have given up on

:10:04.:10:13.

mainstream education. Today is the last day this little

:10:14.:10:16.

girl will go through this routine. No uniforms, no more being dropped

:10:17.:10:24.

off. She will be home`schooled. Just picking your home topic and learning

:10:25.:10:29.

as much as you want and not having to stop. It was that desire that led

:10:30.:10:35.

her mum to remove her from the system. When she is into something,

:10:36.:10:44.

she can carry on. I realise it may sound indulgent, but by the same

:10:45.:10:48.

token, she is a small child and you are fostering a love of learning. At

:10:49.:10:54.

the Skinners' house in Sheffield, they have been home`schooling for

:10:55.:11:00.

three years. Today it is maths. An example of how the education, if not

:11:01.:11:04.

the setting, is some fun `` is sometimes traditional. We get one

:11:05.:11:09.

thing that we don't understand, we go over it as much as we want to.

:11:10.:11:16.

English, science. It is not about getting out of school, it is about

:11:17.:11:20.

doing more things than school. But there is a cost. Jackie had to give

:11:21.:11:26.

up a full`time job to become an unpaid teacher. The payback is that

:11:27.:11:34.

the girls get a good education. At an expense, but it is more than

:11:35.:11:39.

worth it. Maybe that is the reason that more and more people opt for

:11:40.:11:44.

home`schooling. In South Yorkshire, 706 children are registered. In the

:11:45.:11:49.

author Yorkshire, 105, and West Yorkshire has 542 children. So why

:11:50.:11:56.

the rise? One expert thinks that the reasons may not be entirely

:11:57.:12:00.

positive. Some people think they could do a better job at home, but

:12:01.:12:05.

for a lot of parents, it is because they feel absolutely desperate and

:12:06.:12:08.

in some cases, it would have been suggested by the school. But as

:12:09.:12:14.

maths turned into a soggy art lesson, the decision for the

:12:15.:12:19.

Skinners has been a positive one. A choice to move outside the system, a

:12:20.:12:22.

choice more and more families seem to be making.

:12:23.:12:33.

Before seven o'clock, I am on Scarborough seafront to see the

:12:34.:12:38.

story of Orpheus the Mariner retold. There are giant puppets and 1000

:12:39.:12:42.

performers. It is a howling gale, what could possibly go wrong!

:12:43.:12:52.

My name is Paul Appleby. I'm also known as Munchie man. You will find

:12:53.:12:58.

out why on look North. `` on Look North.

:12:59.:13:02.

Sport now, and Tanya's here with all the weekend sport and the latest

:13:03.:13:07.

from Sochi. I have been glued to it. A fantastic

:13:08.:13:13.

afternoon on the day that we got a gold in the skeleton bob,

:13:14.:13:17.

Sheffield's Shelley Rudman ended up 16. She started the day in 11th, but

:13:18.:13:26.

slipped down to 13th after her third run and ended up 16th after her

:13:27.:13:29.

fourth and final run. The silver medallist from eight years ago was

:13:30.:13:33.

aiming for a top ten finish, but it was a tough course for her.

:13:34.:13:36.

Shelley's partner, Kristan Bromley, got his campaign under way today.

:13:37.:13:39.

Lying tenth after his first run, he moved up to joint eighth after his

:13:40.:13:43.

second. He was much quicker right from the start, and but for a slight

:13:44.:13:47.

bump might have moved up even further. His final two runs are

:13:48.:13:49.

tomorrow. Football now, and Yorkshire really

:13:50.:13:52.

has got two serious candidates for this season's FA Cup Quarter Finals.

:13:53.:13:55.

But that's if Sheffield United and Sheffield Wednesday get through

:13:56.:13:58.

their fifth round ties this weekend. And there is one primary school in

:13:59.:14:02.

the Steel City, where "cup fever" really is taking hold. Paul Ogden

:14:03.:14:09.

reports. The city of Sheffield has in fact

:14:10.:14:14.

already secured this year's FA Cup for itself this week. For a few

:14:15.:14:19.

hours, anyway. But don't jump to any conclusions about these ribbons. The

:14:20.:14:27.

famous old trophy was on display at the very blue dominated Hillsborough

:14:28.:14:33.

Primary School, down the road from Sheffield United `` Sheffield

:14:34.:14:38.

Wednesday's ground. The FA Cup, every teen dreams of winning it.

:14:39.:14:43.

Every person wants to see and hold it. Teacher Rob Jackson must have a

:14:44.:14:51.

tough time at work. He is a lifelong blade in a school full of Sheffield

:14:52.:14:57.

Wednesday fans. But he is more than happy to predict the results for

:14:58.:15:04.

both Sheffield teams. I will go for a United victory 2`1 and a Wednesday

:15:05.:15:14.

lost 2`1. Never in a million years! Sheffield United will win. Wednesday

:15:15.:15:20.

will get a draw or when, and United will definitely win. That is what it

:15:21.:15:29.

means to everyone. The last few rounds of the FA Cup, everyone loves

:15:30.:15:36.

the FA Cup. The kits have been working hard to show how the city of

:15:37.:15:42.

Sheffield can make its mark on the football world again. Wednesday and

:15:43.:15:47.

United could do worse than copy the supporters' refreshing self belief

:15:48.:15:50.

to get through to the quarterfinals. Halifax fell to a late Chester goal

:15:51.:15:54.

to see them lose 2`1 in the Conference. Twice they've been on TV

:15:55.:15:58.

this season and so far they've had three players sent off. This looked

:15:59.:16:03.

very harsh on Josh Wilson. But having gone behind to Chester, they

:16:04.:16:06.

levelled it in injury time through James Bolton, only for Jamie Menagh

:16:07.:16:10.

to score right at the death to give the home side the victory.

:16:11.:16:22.

I don't generally do statistics, but three times since Halifax have been

:16:23.:16:26.

on telly, they have yet to end the game with 11 men! Anyone want to put

:16:27.:16:30.

a bet on? Now, if you're anywhere near

:16:31.:16:33.

Scarborough this weekend and are happy to brave the wet and the wind,

:16:34.:16:37.

then don't miss the Winter Festival. A giant puppet parade and

:16:38.:16:40.

performance is taking place along the town's South Bay over the next

:16:41.:16:43.

two nights. Hundreds of performers, giant puppets, live music and a

:16:44.:16:46.

lantern procession will tell the story of Orpheus the Mariner ` a

:16:47.:16:50.

young man trying to save his lover from creatures of The Deep. It's one

:16:51.:16:54.

of the most tragic tales of lost love in literature and art. Olivia

:16:55.:16:57.

Richwald is live in Scarborough for us tonight, where it's already under

:16:58.:17:06.

way. Where better to be on a Friday night

:17:07.:17:11.

than here on Scarborough seafront. The story is now well underway. You

:17:12.:17:16.

can see one of the puppets behind me. That is a sailor. We can expect

:17:17.:17:23.

one `` more of these puppets to rise out of the water on boats. It is the

:17:24.:17:29.

story of Orpheus the Mariner. It started about one hour ago. It

:17:30.:17:34.

started half a mile away at the spa complex and it has wound its way to

:17:35.:17:38.

the harbour where it is reaching its conclusion. There are more than 1000

:17:39.:17:42.

performers involved including these guys who are getting ready to sing.

:17:43.:17:46.

They are one of dozens of choirs involved. I filmed some of the

:17:47.:17:52.

preparations a few weeks ago. Let's have a look at that.

:17:53.:17:59.

This is not a vicious form of torture, it is the final rehearsals.

:18:00.:18:05.

To call Orpheus the Mariner ambitious is like calling this

:18:06.:18:11.

winter damp. The weather is sopping, Orpheus is giant. 1000 performers

:18:12.:18:18.

are involved tonight. Organisers had hoped the enormous profits would be

:18:19.:18:22.

more mobile. But better safe than blown into the sea. They are like

:18:23.:18:28.

big wind socks, so if they catch the wind, we are in trouble. They are

:18:29.:18:33.

quite robust. The clothes were made and ripped `` of nylon, so they will

:18:34.:18:41.

dry out. The faces are covered in latex. They are ready for the

:18:42.:18:48.

weather, they are all sorted. Work on the project started more than one

:18:49.:18:52.

year ago. 5000 volunteers were recruited to help with props,

:18:53.:18:55.

puppets, painting, sewing and staging. It is going to look

:18:56.:19:06.

fabulous! Story of whether, when the wind blows, we all pull together! I

:19:07.:19:16.

am making some trumpet horn things. Trumpets will be played by a band,

:19:17.:19:24.

luckily she is not one of them! I can do it. This is one of 14

:19:25.:19:31.

puppets. He will be a drunken sailor when fully operational and finished.

:19:32.:19:36.

It's Blair has to be `` each puppets has to be coated in waterproof

:19:37.:19:47.

paint. It is traditionally a quiet time of year in Scarborough and we

:19:48.:19:51.

wanted a large event of this sort to bring people to the town and show it

:19:52.:19:55.

off. To show that it is a great place to visit even in the winter.

:19:56.:20:09.

Communities all over North Yorkshire have been involved in the

:20:10.:20:14.

preparations. This choir has been learning C shanties. They were all

:20:15.:20:18.

lined the US `` they were all lined the route and sing their C shanties

:20:19.:20:27.

in unison. Finally, if you were wondering what to do with a drunken

:20:28.:20:32.

sailor, Odyssey, you lash into a fence and leave him to sober up.

:20:33.:20:39.

This show has been two years in the planning. Despite the freezing cold

:20:40.:20:43.

weather, the wind and rain, there are hundreds of people who have come

:20:44.:20:49.

down to see the story. It is part of the coastal festival and Wendy

:20:50.:20:55.

Holroyd joins me. Tell me about it. It is a three`day festival, it runs

:20:56.:21:02.

till Sunday. There are several events, 80 of which are free. It is

:21:03.:21:09.

a mixture of music and dance. Comedy and visual, and of course we have

:21:10.:21:12.

this fantastic Orpheus the Mariner performance tonight. I have to ask,

:21:13.:21:19.

Wendy, everyone is asking why do this in February, it is freezing! I

:21:20.:21:25.

ask myself that every year. We do it in February because we want to bring

:21:26.:21:31.

tourists to the town at a time when it is usually very quiet. We also

:21:32.:21:35.

want to bring arts and fun and entertainment to the residents of

:21:36.:21:40.

Scarborough borough. It also has an economic impact for the town. What

:21:41.:21:46.

are the highlights? The brand`new heavies tonight. And really quirky

:21:47.:21:52.

stuff around the town. A sound installation `` a sound installation

:21:53.:21:57.

at the Rotunda. Orpheus the Mariner has been going on tonight but the

:21:58.:22:03.

story has been going on `` will be told in two parts. The second part

:22:04.:22:07.

will be told tomorrow night on Saturday night. There will be a

:22:08.:22:11.

world record`breaking puppet, which will be enormous. That will be

:22:12.:22:15.

unveiled. It is well worth coming down to watch that tomorrow night.

:22:16.:22:20.

Even in the middle of winter, Scarborough has something to offer.

:22:21.:22:22.

Now, do you ever fancy a takeaway, but can't be bothered to go and

:22:23.:22:26.

collect one? Well, if you live in Barnsley, help is at hand in the

:22:27.:22:30.

form of a superhero. Paul Appleby, otherwise known as Munchie man, set

:22:31.:22:33.

up his own business just ten days ago. He delivers from fast food

:22:34.:22:37.

outlets around the town. And he's already been inundated with orders.

:22:38.:22:41.

He's here now. Paul, you look like banana man axeman you are certainly

:22:42.:22:54.
