:00:00. > :00:00.in Ukraine. That is all from the BBC News at six. It is goodbye from me

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

:00:09. > :00:09.programme tonight: A medical breakthrough.

:00:10. > :00:17.Millions suffering from diabetes could benefit from advances made by

:00:18. > :00:19.scientists at Sheffield University. We talk to the patients who will

:00:20. > :00:25.benefit. Also tonight: A peaceful protest.

:00:26. > :00:28.Dozens protest over plans to build a new motorway service station on the

:00:29. > :00:32.site of ancient woodland in South Yorkshire.

:00:33. > :00:34.Could a bit of lane discipline be on the cards for inpatient consumers at

:00:35. > :00:38.Meadowhall? And I promise you its no yolk! We

:00:39. > :00:48.meet the woman who's hung onto this Easter egg for 65 years. I looked

:00:49. > :00:52.inside and saw what it was like and I just did not have the heart to

:00:53. > :00:57.destroy the egg. It was so beautiful.

:00:58. > :01:01.The return to fine weather in the next few days. I will be back later

:01:02. > :01:09.in the programme with all the details of the Easter weekend.

:01:10. > :01:14.Our top story: A breakthrough by scientists at Sheffield university

:01:15. > :01:16.could signal new hope to the millions of people who suffer from

:01:17. > :01:20.diabetes. Two thirds of people who have the

:01:21. > :01:23.condition get nerve damage and that can cause crippling pain which stops

:01:24. > :01:27.them doing ordinary every day tasks. But this breakthrough could change

:01:28. > :01:38.all that. Amy. Diabetes is a common condition. It

:01:39. > :01:45.is caused when your body is unable to break down sugars into energy.

:01:46. > :01:47.Around one in five of you watching the programme tonight will suffer

:01:48. > :01:50.from it. That's almost three million people

:01:51. > :01:51.around the country, with hundreds of thousands more remaining

:01:52. > :01:54.undiagnosed. With numbers predicted to reach five

:01:55. > :01:57.milliion by 2025, the need for new treatments and better understanding

:01:58. > :02:00.is urgent. Diabetes is caused when your body is unable to break down

:02:01. > :02:03.sugars into energy. Many sufferers need injections of insulin to

:02:04. > :02:07.regulate the condition. Kate Bradbrook has been to meet one woman

:02:08. > :02:08.whose life has been torn apart by the condition.

:02:09. > :02:14.For the past five years Tracey has been in constant agonising pain. She

:02:15. > :02:20.suffers from a form of diabetes that causes nerve damage and it affects

:02:21. > :02:25.almost all aspects of everyday life. I suffer with it in my hands and my

:02:26. > :02:32.arms and my feet and legs. There is a continuous deep rooted pain which

:02:33. > :02:36.never goes away. Then there is added pain like pins and needles,

:02:37. > :02:43.numbness, burning and shooting pains. Tracey's legs are often so

:02:44. > :02:48.sensitive they cannot come into contact with her bed. She has a

:02:49. > :02:54.cradle to make night`time more bearable but life is not easy. In

:02:55. > :02:59.the beginning, because I did not know anything about it and I did not

:03:00. > :03:05.understand, I was very depressed. At 1.I felt suicidal. I think it is

:03:06. > :03:12.because I have tried many different types of medication and I tried to

:03:13. > :03:17.feel normal and I wanted a cure but I have come to accept it now, they

:03:18. > :03:23.cannot cure it and I have to live with it. Experts here at Sheffield

:03:24. > :03:27.hospitals say they have had a breakthrough. By using MRI scanning

:03:28. > :03:33.equipment they have revealed for the first time the impact the condition

:03:34. > :03:37.as on the nervous system. We found that not only does it affect the

:03:38. > :03:41.nerves in the feet and the legs but it also seems to have an impact on

:03:42. > :03:48.the spies all caught in the brain as well. `` the spinal`cord. The

:03:49. > :03:54.involvement of the nervous system is more extensive than previously

:03:55. > :03:58.thought. MRI scanners are not new technology. It is the way they are

:03:59. > :04:02.now being used to research this condition that has provided the

:04:03. > :04:08.breakthrough. Although much more still needs to be learned about

:04:09. > :04:12.diabetic uropathy, by understanding its effects, researchers say they

:04:13. > :04:15.are one step closer to better treatment for Tracey and millions

:04:16. > :04:18.more like her. We're joined now by the man whose

:04:19. > :04:33.led this research Professor Solomon Tesfaye. He's in our Sheffield

:04:34. > :04:40.studio. Did we know much about nerve damage before this research? We have

:04:41. > :04:47.been researching it in Sheffield for many years and what we considered

:04:48. > :04:51.initially was that the disease was confined only to the peripheral

:04:52. > :04:59.nerves in the legs and hands. However over the past three years we

:05:00. > :05:04.now think that in fact it is not only confined to the nerves in the

:05:05. > :05:08.legs and hands but also involves the central nervous system, the

:05:09. > :05:12.spinal`cord and the brain. Will this research allow you to help

:05:13. > :05:16.patients? Absolutely. We have identified key areas of the brain

:05:17. > :05:23.that are affected and we are now going to develop perhaps new drugs

:05:24. > :05:26.in the next few years to try and stop the disease because we have a

:05:27. > :05:35.keyhole to look at how the disease is progressing noninvasively, using

:05:36. > :05:42.MRI imaging technology. Someone like Tracy could get help fairly

:05:43. > :05:47.quickly? Absolutely. At the moment Tracey, who I know very well, is

:05:48. > :05:53.cotton baying `` plagued by this condition and in constant pain. And

:05:54. > :05:57.the treatments we have for her at the moment only work partially

:05:58. > :06:02.because we do not understand the disease very well but now with this

:06:03. > :06:06.breakthrough we have a better understanding of the disease and we

:06:07. > :06:12.are going to, in the next few years, trying to develop new

:06:13. > :06:16.compounds to mitigate the effect of diabetes on the nervous system. That

:06:17. > :06:19.is encouraging news for millions of people. Thank you for joining us.

:06:20. > :06:22.The owner of a long`established family`run business in West

:06:23. > :06:25.Yorkshire has appeared at Crown Court charged with the murder of his

:06:26. > :06:28.estranged wife. John Butler, who runs a well`known furniture store in

:06:29. > :06:31.Yeadon, which recently featured in the reality TV series The Fixer has

:06:32. > :06:41.been remanded in custody. Our Crime Correspondent John Cundy reports.

:06:42. > :06:47.This furniture shop is a family business and has been here for 68

:06:48. > :06:51.years. The store and its sister funeral business closed today

:06:52. > :06:56.because of what happened on Monday. 61 you wrote Pauline Butler was

:06:57. > :07:00.found dead from multiple stab wounds at a property nearby. Her estranged

:07:01. > :07:06.husband and fellow company director was arrested on suspicion of her

:07:07. > :07:13.murder. John Butler came to national attention two years ago in a BBC Two

:07:14. > :07:17.TV series, The Fixer. It is a family business but I do not think it

:07:18. > :07:21.really works. A business expert was called in to advise companies on how

:07:22. > :07:27.to do better. There is a lever on the side here, pull the lever and

:07:28. > :07:30.the rest comes out. Fantastic. John Butler appeared at Leeds

:07:31. > :07:35.Magistrates' Court yesterday charged with the murder. His case was

:07:36. > :07:40.switched to the Crown Court today. John Butler appeared in court for

:07:41. > :07:46.just six minutes. No application for bail was made on his behalf and the

:07:47. > :07:52.case was adjourned until April the 28th. Meanwhile the store is shut to

:07:53. > :07:56.mark the family bereavement this week and it is expected to reopen

:07:57. > :08:03.next Tuesday. Later on Look North: a final mercy

:08:04. > :08:07.mission. A medical field hospital makes ready

:08:08. > :08:13.`` gets ready to make its final trip to Afghanistan.

:08:14. > :08:16.Dozens of Woodland Trust campaigners have been taking part in a peaceful

:08:17. > :08:19.protest today over plans to build a new service station on the M1 in

:08:20. > :08:22.South Yorkshire. Developers say the ?40 million

:08:23. > :08:25.scheme, at junction 35, north of Sheffield, would create around 400

:08:26. > :08:28.construction jobs and up to 300 permanent posts. But opponents say

:08:29. > :08:46.it would destroy ancient woodland. Shamir Masri was at today's protest.

:08:47. > :08:49.Protesters came out this morning to express their concerns over a

:08:50. > :08:55.planned motorway services development on the site of ancient

:08:56. > :08:59.woodland near Sheffield. Campaigners argue that Smithy Wood is part of

:09:00. > :09:03.the green belt and has been designated as a local wildlife site.

:09:04. > :09:07.There are lots of areas you can look at to build this thing, it doesn't

:09:08. > :09:10.have to be in the middle of an ancient wood which the local

:09:11. > :09:16.community value and is home to a lot of wildlife. It does not need to

:09:17. > :09:28.happen. For the developer the site has Smithy Wood is an ideal location

:09:29. > :09:30.for a new motorway service area. It overlooks junction 35 of the M1

:09:31. > :09:34.between Sheffield and Barnsley. Locals and campaigners fear that

:09:35. > :09:37.this 800`year`old wood and the tranquillity it provides for the

:09:38. > :09:43.people and its wildlife could be lost for ever if this development

:09:44. > :09:52.goes ahead. The developers want to build these motorway services on 27

:09:53. > :09:57.acres of woodland. They will plant 60,000 trees, creating 39 acres of

:09:58. > :10:03.new woodland on three nearby sites. There is also an offer to fund a

:10:04. > :10:08.trust that would manage 172 acres of privately owned woodland for

:10:09. > :10:12.community use. This afternoon campaigners delivered a letter to

:10:13. > :10:17.the developer in Rotherham, detailing reasons why these plans

:10:18. > :10:21.should not go ahead. There are a lot of people, the silent majority I

:10:22. > :10:26.would argue are supportive of the investment and jobs that does not

:10:27. > :10:30.always come across. I really hope that he reconsiders and thinks about

:10:31. > :10:36.the loss of ancient woodland. I am not totally convinced that the jobs

:10:37. > :10:40.outweigh the loss. People have another month to declare

:10:41. > :10:43.their opposition over the plans. The campaigners will not know until the

:10:44. > :10:52.summer if their voices will save Smiddy would. `` if their voices

:10:53. > :10:55.will save Smithy Wood. A Sheffield man who beheaded his

:10:56. > :10:59.teenage girlfriend with a kitchen knife has been jailed for life for

:11:00. > :11:02.her murder. 18`year`old Reema Ramzan's body was found at Aras

:11:03. > :11:05.Hussein's flat in Shire`cliffe in June last year. Hussein, who's 21,

:11:06. > :11:13.had admitted the killing on the grounds of diminished responsibility

:11:14. > :11:16.but denied murder. He was sentenced to a minimum of 20 years in prison.

:11:17. > :11:20.Police who've been searching the River Ouse in York for a missing

:11:21. > :11:23.soldier have found a man's body. Tyler Pearson is thought to have

:11:24. > :11:26.tried to swim across the river in the early hours of Thursday third

:11:27. > :11:30.April. The 18`year`old has not been seen since. The identity of the body

:11:31. > :11:33.is not yet known but Mr Pearson's family have been informed.

:11:34. > :11:36.Two of our museums ` the National Railway Museum in York and the

:11:37. > :11:40.National Media Museum in Bradford ` are said to be among the most

:11:41. > :11:42.accessible in the country for disabled visitors.

:11:43. > :11:45.A nationwide study looked at how 100 museums accommodated disabled people

:11:46. > :11:49.and also rated facilities such as toilets, wheelchair access and

:11:50. > :11:52.parking. The National Railway Museum was ranked fourth best in the

:11:53. > :11:59.country and the National Media Museum came 15th.

:12:00. > :12:02.The landmark tower at the former Yorkshire Post and Evening Post

:12:03. > :12:05.building in Leeds is to be saved from demolition. The tower has

:12:06. > :12:11.displayed the time and temperature since it was built in 1970.

:12:12. > :12:14.Demolition work started on the Wellington Street site this week,

:12:15. > :12:17.but the developer wants to retain the tower to provide a lasting

:12:18. > :12:20.memory of the building. This weekend a team of medics

:12:21. > :12:23.trained at the Army's 34 Field Hospital at Strensall York will be

:12:24. > :12:28.deployed to Afghanistan to provide treatment and care at Camp Bastion

:12:29. > :12:32.Hospital. The unit follows in the footsteps of many others, but this

:12:33. > :12:35.time it's different. The team will be the last sent to

:12:36. > :12:39.Afghanistan. When British troops withdraw at the end of the year a

:12:40. > :12:47.field hospital will no longer be needed there. Olivia Richwald

:12:48. > :12:51.reports. It is an emergency at the field

:12:52. > :12:57.hospital. The casualties might be acting but the training here is very

:12:58. > :13:02.real. There are 300 in the team, doctors, nurses, paramedics and

:13:03. > :13:05.support staff. The British Army will leave Afghanistan by the end of this

:13:06. > :13:10.year and these soldiers will be the last medical team to be deployed. We

:13:11. > :13:14.are there to provide medical care for coalition forces but we also

:13:15. > :13:18.supply support to the Afghan National Army and they are injured

:13:19. > :13:22.in the vicinity. They are developing their own medical services and part

:13:23. > :13:28.of our role is to mental that as well. This is a hospital on a

:13:29. > :13:32.smaller scale, there is an accident and emergency and the latest

:13:33. > :13:36.diagnostic equipment. This is the only field hospital training centre

:13:37. > :13:40.in Europe and every medic in the British Army will come through here

:13:41. > :13:45.at some point in their career. It is almost almost an exact replica of

:13:46. > :13:49.the hospital in camp Bastian. The team training now is lucky enough to

:13:50. > :13:55.be based here and in Afghanistan they will not just be saving lives.

:13:56. > :13:59.They are also tasked with closing down the hospital. I am excited. I

:14:00. > :14:03.have orders wanted to go on tour and I have been here for five years and

:14:04. > :14:07.I have been dying to go for that times are now it is the last one so

:14:08. > :14:19.it is an honour to pack up after. Not many people can say they were

:14:20. > :14:22.there to close the hospital. I am pretty nervous. It is fear of the

:14:23. > :14:24.unknown at the moment. We do not know what to expect when we're out

:14:25. > :14:27.there. There was a good group of people going out so we will be fine.

:14:28. > :14:30.The hospital at camp Bastian is among the best in the world. So many

:14:31. > :14:37.soldiers owe their lives and limbs to the medics trained in North

:14:38. > :14:40.Yorkshire. It is so interesting to get an

:14:41. > :14:42.insight into what is going on out there.

:14:43. > :14:46.What annoys you most about shopping? Queues? High prices? Or dawdling

:14:47. > :14:50.shoppers? I am adored love myself. I stop in

:14:51. > :14:53.my tracks when I see a bargain. I am looking for a bargain.

:14:54. > :15:00.You are one of those annoying people! You are one of those people

:15:01. > :15:03.that one girl got so frustrated about it, she wrote a letter of

:15:04. > :15:05.complaint. And offered a suggestion. Rather than her letter being

:15:06. > :15:09.ignored, one shopping centre has taken her up it. Ian White has been

:15:10. > :15:12.to see if the next Mary Portas's ideas are a shopping success!

:15:13. > :15:16.You know what it is like. You have an hour for your lunch break and you

:15:17. > :15:21.do not have much time and you want to get your shopping done and people

:15:22. > :15:25.are in the way everywhere! It is so frustrating! A ten`year`old girl has

:15:26. > :15:31.come up with a clever idea to solve the problem. Chloe shows me her

:15:32. > :15:37.invention being trialled at Meadowhall shopping centre. A slow

:15:38. > :15:42.lane and a fast loan. If you are stuck behind a slow person you can

:15:43. > :15:49.go on the fast lane. Who do you think would use the slow line? Older

:15:50. > :15:53.people and people with prams. At peak times it is incredibly busy

:15:54. > :15:56.here and some shoppers come here and they want is a very quick experience

:15:57. > :16:01.and they want to flash around the place so they might want to use the

:16:02. > :16:08.fast lane and other people are here for a full day so they might want to

:16:09. > :16:13.use the slow lane. The idea behind the letter was good so we want to

:16:14. > :16:17.trial it. People walk slow here and you can get to shops quicker if you

:16:18. > :16:23.are faster. Which lane would you choose? I would be in the fast lane?

:16:24. > :16:28.What about the wife? She'd be in the slow lane. Is it a good idea? Yes,

:16:29. > :16:33.it is really good, you get stuck behind people. If you can get your

:16:34. > :16:38.wife around the shopping centre more quickly without spending the money,

:16:39. > :16:42.I will be stopping her using the slow lane. Meadowhall will introduce

:16:43. > :16:47.the idea across the whole shopping centre if people say that they like

:16:48. > :16:55.it. It is a brilliant idea. I used to be adored love but now I have a

:16:56. > :17:00.baby I smash and grab. 3000 of you liked this story on our

:17:01. > :17:04.Facebook page. Jamie Peters got in touch to say, I for one hate getting

:17:05. > :17:07.stuck behind a group of slow people with no way round them, hopefully

:17:08. > :17:10.this will take off! However, Andrea Allan wrote, It's a

:17:11. > :17:13.ridiculous idea. Patience and manners would be a far simpler idea.

:17:14. > :17:16.Some insight here from Rachel Orchard, she said, I'm disabled and

:17:17. > :17:20.walk slower than most people. I'm OK with that and this way I'm less

:17:21. > :17:22.likely to be knocked over by people going faster.

:17:23. > :17:25.That is a really good point. Finally this comment from Eleanor

:17:26. > :17:29.Barnes, It's an ace idea. I don't need to feel guilty that I'm on

:17:30. > :17:31.toddler speed and holding up other people now!

:17:32. > :17:34.And you can still join in the debate. Just head to Facebook and

:17:35. > :17:38.search for Look North Yorkshire to find our page.

:17:39. > :17:50.Before 7:00pm: One of Yorkshire's most successful bands breaks its

:17:51. > :17:53.eight year silence. Embrace gives Look North exclusive

:17:54. > :17:58.access to rehearsals for their brand new single.

:17:59. > :18:12.And for goodness sake, don't drop it! Why this 65`year`old Easter egg

:18:13. > :18:14.has never been nibbled. That would last two minutes in my house!

:18:15. > :18:18.One minute in mind! Football now, and a quick glance at

:18:19. > :18:22.the bottom of the Championship table is enough to tell us how much is at

:18:23. > :18:25.stake this Easter weekend ` for Barnsley, Doncaster Rovers and even

:18:26. > :18:28.Huddersfield Town. Those three names in particular are nowhere near safe

:18:29. > :18:30.from the threat of relegation. Barnsley host Leeds United on

:18:31. > :18:35.Saturday. Huddersfield play Brighton tomorrow afternoon. And Rovers?

:18:36. > :18:38.Well, they really need to pick up some points tomorrow night against

:18:39. > :18:45.Derby, and especially at Millwall on Monday. We could get three points on

:18:46. > :18:49.Friday night and everybody else could win. We could lose both games

:18:50. > :18:54.and still be the situation we are in now. But is how crazy the leaders.

:18:55. > :18:57.We have to get back to getting points on the board just because we

:18:58. > :18:59.can. On the performances we are far away.

:19:00. > :19:02.And in Boxing, Leeds Featherweight Josh Warrington is into his final

:19:03. > :19:06.preparations for what he describes as the biggest fight of his young

:19:07. > :19:08.career so far on Saturday night in Manchester. Warrington will be

:19:09. > :19:11.defending his Commonwealth Featherweight title against Rendall

:19:12. > :19:18.Munroe, in front of his largest audience yet at the Manchester

:19:19. > :19:24.Arena. He is by far the biggest name on the record. He has boxed four

:19:25. > :19:28.world titles vamping Commonwealth champion before and European

:19:29. > :19:33.champion before. If I can beat the likes of him it shows that I am at a

:19:34. > :19:36.good level and I know that to progress onto the European level

:19:37. > :19:42.which I want to go want to do and maybe world one day, I need to be

:19:43. > :19:45.beating the likes of Rendall Munroe. Good luck. Now let us talk music.

:19:46. > :19:49.One of Yorkshire most successful bands are about to go back on the

:19:50. > :19:52.road with a new album after an eight year break.

:19:53. > :19:55.In their day Embrace had three number one albums and a number one

:19:56. > :19:57.single. Just days before the album is released and as they prepared for

:19:58. > :20:08.their tour, they gave look North exclusive

:20:09. > :20:13.access to their rehearsals. We were riding on the crest of a wave and we

:20:14. > :20:16.had never been more popular but we felt like puppets rather than

:20:17. > :20:20.puppeteers so we went away for while and rediscovered what it was about

:20:21. > :20:27.being in a band that made us all this `` that made us all excited in

:20:28. > :20:30.the first place. We needed time to find out about a normal life and

:20:31. > :20:36.know it was not as much fun as being in a band. We worked on and off to

:20:37. > :20:40.start with but we have been full`time for the last few years.

:20:41. > :20:45.Our manager said we had been away for so long now it didn't matter how

:20:46. > :20:46.long it took us as long as the record was right and that was really

:20:47. > :21:05.encouraging. We just wanted to make a record that

:21:06. > :21:09.was a bit more up and Qatari and not all ballots because we got sick of

:21:10. > :21:16.writing ballads. The new album is darker than anything we have done

:21:17. > :21:19.before but it also has the epic and euphoric choruses. We have been

:21:20. > :21:22.trying to write an album that is better than our first album for the

:21:23. > :21:28.last 15 years and I do not think we managed down till now. We all think

:21:29. > :21:44.that this is the first time we have managed to do it.

:21:45. > :21:51.There will be people who love it and people who will not. We are all

:21:52. > :21:54.massively proud of it so as far as we are concerned it has done the job

:21:55. > :21:59.already. We are very proud of the record so we want a lot of people to

:22:00. > :22:04.hear it. Playing in front of crowns of people even if it is small clubs

:22:05. > :22:08.in Germany or massive festival it is what we are really fired up to do

:22:09. > :22:11.now. Being away for so long you assume everyone has forgotten about

:22:12. > :22:15.you but it does not seem like that now, it seems they have really

:22:16. > :22:17.missed us which is good. If it goes to number one I will take my top off

:22:18. > :22:36.and run down the street. That is a good tune. They still have

:22:37. > :22:39.got it! Will you take your top off and land on the street?

:22:40. > :22:42.If it gets to number one, I promise you that! If you want to see more

:22:43. > :22:45.from them you can see it on Facebook.

:22:46. > :22:48.And still on a musical theme, Girls Aloud singer Kimberley Walsh has

:22:49. > :22:51.been filming the video to the official Tour de France anthem. The

:22:52. > :22:54.anthem, called The Road, has been specially written by North Yorkshire

:22:55. > :22:57.singer songwriter Alistair Griffin. It's to coincide with Le Grand

:22:58. > :23:01.Depart which takes place in Yorkshire in July. As well as

:23:02. > :23:08.Bradford born Kimberley, the anthem also features the Grimethorpe

:23:09. > :23:11.Colliery Band. Now it's the last working day before

:23:12. > :23:15.the Bank Holiday weekend, for some at least. And we couldn't mark the

:23:16. > :23:19.occasion without an Easter egg. But this is a very special one. It's

:23:20. > :23:24.vintage and has survived 65 years without being nibbled. Shirley Henry

:23:25. > :23:34.has been to meet the Doncaster pensioner who'se will power is

:23:35. > :23:40.second to none! Yours has got a hole in. Mine has not. There are a few

:23:41. > :23:44.cracks and the colour is faded and one has a hole in the middle but for

:23:45. > :23:49.their age they look good. These Easter eggs are 65 years old and

:23:50. > :23:59.they are owned by two sisters. It is so beautiful inside. There are

:24:00. > :24:04.little cardboard children playing with little lambs. Their uncle gave

:24:05. > :24:09.them the eggs in 1949 when they were both children but the girls were

:24:10. > :24:17.never tempted to take a nibble. I just had not the heart to destroy

:24:18. > :24:23.BA. It was so beautiful. I said, that is something I will keep. And I

:24:24. > :24:27.have kept it. All of these years. Probably because it was all sugar,

:24:28. > :24:33.that is probably why I didn't eat it because I would have rather had some

:24:34. > :24:40.chocolate that have sugar! The white sugary eggs were made in the 1940s

:24:41. > :24:46.and it cost one guinea which is ?1 and it cost one guinea which wages.

:24:47. > :24:53.They have now attracted the attention of a Japanese TV company.

:24:54. > :24:58.I thought, no, I am dreaming! I am dreaming! The monetary value of

:24:59. > :25:03.these eggs is of no concern for these sitters because in their eyes

:25:04. > :25:08.they are priceless. These eggs are our pride and joy. Yes, definitely.

:25:09. > :25:13.We will keep them for the rest of our lives. They are beautiful, they

:25:14. > :25:16.do not make them like that any more! Any Easter eggs for you yet?

:25:17. > :25:21.What about you? I have a rabbit and that is all. A

:25:22. > :25:23.second on the lips and a second on the lips underlie from the hips.

:25:24. > :25:29.Do not forget that! I will forget it on Easter!

:25:30. > :25:30.I'm glad they did not send me on that bits I could have dropped the

:25:31. > :25:34.egg and it would have that bits I could have dropped the

:25:35. > :25:41.egg been in a million pieces. Let us look at some photographs. The

:25:42. > :25:45.first two are quite cloudy. The first is of Ripon and the second one

:25:46. > :25:57.is Marston Moor. There is a promise of brighter skies tomorrow. You can

:25:58. > :26:02.keep your photographs coming in. Easter weekend is one of two halves.

:26:03. > :26:06.Friday and Saturday looked good but Sunday and Monday not so good.

:26:07. > :26:11.Tomorrow has a frosty start and it will be brighter than today. I

:26:12. > :26:16.pressure has reasserted itself. Light wind as well. Chile along the

:26:17. > :26:20.coast. A lot of clouds today, as you can see. We are starting to see a

:26:21. > :26:23.brightening up with cloud breaks filtering down from the north which

:26:24. > :26:28.will continue to spread southwards during the evening and overnight. A

:26:29. > :26:32.final night with long and clear spells but Chile one. Temperatures

:26:33. > :26:47.falling back to two four or five degrees.

:26:48. > :26:56.Tomorrow morning a nippy start to the day but it will be a lovely day.

:26:57. > :27:00.Dry and fine with plenty of sunshine. A lovely day to come on

:27:01. > :27:05.Good Friday. It will be quite chilly out there. Not as breezy as it has

:27:06. > :27:07.been some days this week but particularly along the coast I think

:27:08. > :27:12.you will struggle with temperatures and coastal spots could stay in

:27:13. > :27:22.single figures. Inland we will merely get up to the average for the

:27:23. > :27:28.time of year. I nearly fell over there, a broken ankle for Easter

:27:29. > :27:32.weekend will be nice! Outbreaks of rain spreading up from the south on

:27:33. > :27:39.Sunday. I promise I have not had a drink. I couldn't balance on those!

:27:40. > :27:43.And enjoy your Easter weekend. I will be on tonight with Keely if she

:27:44. > :27:46.can stand up straight. I will see you next week.

:27:47. > :27:46.Do not eat too much chocolate. Do,

:27:47. > :27:47.you next week. Do not eat too much chocolate.

:27:48. > :27:51.Do, eat it!
