Good evening you're watching Tuesday's Look North. | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
On the programme tonight, making their voices heard - | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
The mother whose two boys were deliberately killed | :00:07. | :00:08. | |
by their father takes her campaign to Downing Street, to put children | :00:09. | :00:11. | |
and there's always hope because without hope we have nothing. And if | :00:12. | :00:24. | |
you have nothing, nothing can change. And were not going to just | :00:25. | :00:26. | |
sit by and let that happen. We'll also hear from the charity | :00:27. | :00:28. | |
Women's Aid, which says there's still work to be done to make family | :00:29. | :00:31. | |
courts safer for children. Also tonight, driven | :00:32. | :00:34. | |
to distraction - We're on patrol with | :00:35. | :00:39. | |
South Yorkshire Police who're clamping down on motorists | :00:40. | :00:42. | |
using their mobiles at the wheel Fighting Yorkshire's biggest cause | :00:43. | :00:47. | |
of premature deaths - more than ?5 million is to be spent | :00:48. | :00:49. | |
on a new lung cancer And the polar with the molar - | :00:50. | :00:53. | |
what happens when this big bear has And we started today on a foggy | :00:54. | :01:11. | |
note. Less overnight tonight but after a fine start we will see more | :01:12. | :01:13. | |
cloud tomorrow. I'll be back later. First tonight, one's mother's | :01:14. | :01:23. | |
campaign to protect children Claire Throssell's two sons | :01:24. | :01:26. | |
were killed in a fire at their home It was started deliberately by their | :01:27. | :01:31. | |
father, as an act of revenge. Claire had warned the authorities | :01:32. | :01:36. | |
that their father posed a danger, but he was still allowed | :01:37. | :01:40. | |
unsupervised access to them. Today, she delivered a petition | :01:41. | :01:43. | |
to Downing Street urging the Government to change the way | :01:44. | :01:46. | |
courts handle cases like hers. A simple but urgent message, laid on | :01:47. | :02:03. | |
the Prime Minister's doorstep, delivered by someone who never | :02:04. | :02:06. | |
wanted to make this journey. Her two sons were killed when her father, -- | :02:07. | :02:18. | |
their father, her ex-husband, set fire to their home. It is a powerful | :02:19. | :02:25. | |
image. When you think that each of those is a child and their lives | :02:26. | :02:30. | |
have been taken. The boys were lured into the attic. One's body was found | :02:31. | :02:50. | |
there. The other died in hospital. A serious case review found Paul had | :02:51. | :02:54. | |
told social workers he fears his father, describing him as, pure | :02:55. | :03:01. | |
nicety. Today, with the charity Women's Eight, she asked for a | :03:02. | :03:07. | |
change in the law. No one would ever choose to follow the path that she | :03:08. | :03:11. | |
has been forced on for the last few years. But her absolute belief in | :03:12. | :03:15. | |
the cause that children's voices should be at the heart of the family | :03:16. | :03:21. | |
court process has seen her campaign with dignity and poison the most | :03:22. | :03:26. | |
horrendous circumstances. My two children were not listen to, I was | :03:27. | :03:30. | |
not listen to, we need to stop that happening. No other parent should | :03:31. | :03:35. | |
have two holds that child in their arms as they die, knowing is it at | :03:36. | :03:40. | |
the hands of someone who should cherish and protect them the most. | :03:41. | :03:45. | |
Family courts are not run the same way as Crown Court. It's just the | :03:46. | :03:52. | |
last straw that people have to go through. We are not giving up on all | :03:53. | :03:57. | |
the parents out there. There is or was hope, because without hope we | :03:58. | :04:00. | |
have nothing, and if we have nothing, nothing can change. We're | :04:01. | :04:04. | |
not going to just sit by and let that happen. If anyone is out there, | :04:05. | :04:09. | |
in despair, don't. There is hope and change on the web. The Government | :04:10. | :04:14. | |
has already said it will review and revise policy in family courts. | :04:15. | :04:18. | |
Claire says she will not stop campaigning until it delivers. | :04:19. | :04:20. | |
The charity Women's Aid campaigns on issues around domestic violence. | :04:21. | :04:23. | |
I asked their chief executive whether they'd already had some | :04:24. | :04:26. | |
success in getting the Government to change its policy. | :04:27. | :04:30. | |
Definitely, we have had some success. | :04:31. | :04:32. | |
The Government have promised have already put best that they are to | :04:33. | :04:38. | |
ensure that perpetrators of domestic abuse can no longer cross-examine | :04:39. | :04:41. | |
their victims in the family court, and that's a major victory for | :04:42. | :04:44. | |
survivors of domestic abuse, but also for their | :04:45. | :04:48. | |
children who depend ontheir mothers being able to give | :04:49. | :04:50. | |
who depend on their mothers being able to give | :04:51. | :04:56. | |
evidence in full and not being silenced. | :04:57. | :04:57. | |
So what more could you actually achieve them, if you've got | :04:58. | :05:00. | |
What would you like to actually achieve | :05:01. | :05:03. | |
Well, perhaps the biggest issue that we face is the | :05:04. | :05:07. | |
lack of understanding of domestic abuse on the part of judges. | :05:08. | :05:13. | |
So what we need is comprehensive training - | :05:14. | :05:19. | |
ideally judges should have to meet with survivors of domestic abuse so | :05:20. | :05:22. | |
that they understand what domestic abuse actually is and what it does | :05:23. | :05:24. | |
And that training should be regularly refreshed. | :05:25. | :05:29. | |
It's no good having kind of just an hour on | :05:30. | :05:31. | |
domestic abuse when you first become a judge. | :05:32. | :05:33. | |
And yet there is a really difficult balancing act in this as well, | :05:34. | :05:48. | |
because many fathers, if it is fathers we're | :05:49. | :05:50. | |
mainly talking about, will defend their right to see their | :05:51. | :05:53. | |
First of all, parents don't have rights. | :05:54. | :05:57. | |
And so yes, it's very important for a child to see both | :05:58. | :06:04. | |
their parents if neither of those parents poses a danger. | :06:05. | :06:07. | |
The issue with perpetrators of domestic abuse | :06:08. | :06:08. | |
is that they may well pose a danger to their child. | :06:09. | :06:11. | |
And at the moment, in fact, perpetrators are getting | :06:12. | :06:14. | |
contact with children when that is putting children at risk. | :06:15. | :06:17. | |
Would it help at all if family courts were | :06:18. | :06:20. | |
We don't think that public family courts is | :06:21. | :06:26. | |
When children and young people have ever been surveyed | :06:27. | :06:33. | |
about this issue, which they have repeatedly, they've always said that | :06:34. | :06:43. | |
they really do not want their family's private business to be made | :06:44. | :06:46. | |
public and I think we have to respect that. | :06:47. | :06:48. | |
So I'm not sure that making the family courts public is | :06:49. | :06:51. | |
I think what's really important is that judges have a | :06:52. | :06:54. | |
proper understanding of what they are dealing with. | :06:55. | :06:56. | |
Thank you very much indeed. Thank you. | :06:57. | :06:58. | |
The UK's largest lung cancer screening trial is to be | :06:59. | :07:01. | |
The ?5 million project hopes to increase early diagnosis | :07:02. | :07:04. | |
Nationally, breast cancer and prostate cancer are more | :07:05. | :07:09. | |
common, but in Yorkshire it's lung cancer which affects most | :07:10. | :07:12. | |
people, with around 4,500 people diagnosed annually. | :07:13. | :07:16. | |
Survival chances are low, and the disease claims 3,500 lives | :07:17. | :07:25. | |
Now funding from Yorkshire Cancer Research is to be used | :07:26. | :07:30. | |
to target parts of Leeds, where most people are at risk. | :07:31. | :07:33. | |
I go for another checkup tomorrow, I have another CT scan tomorrow. | :07:34. | :07:37. | |
68-year-old Val Sykes from Leeds found out she had | :07:38. | :07:40. | |
lung cancer last year, and that was quite by accident. | :07:41. | :07:43. | |
A former smoker who hadn't had a cigarette in 20 years, | :07:44. | :07:46. | |
she actually went to the GP after straining her chest helping to move | :07:47. | :07:49. | |
As a precaution, she was sent to hospital for an x-ray. | :07:50. | :07:54. | |
It was there doctors saw a nodule on her lung. | :07:55. | :07:58. | |
Val then had an operation to remove it. | :07:59. | :08:00. | |
So it was quite a shock when they did find it and the | :08:01. | :08:06. | |
No breathlessness, we go for long walks. | :08:07. | :08:18. | |
Val is very lucky, but her case is unusual. | :08:19. | :08:25. | |
Lung cancer is so common and serious because there | :08:26. | :08:27. | |
are usually no signs or symptoms in the early stages of the disease. | :08:28. | :08:31. | |
In fact, you could have a large tumour | :08:32. | :08:33. | |
But now, here in Leeds, they are launching a | :08:34. | :08:37. | |
multi-million pound investment in screening, which they hope will | :08:38. | :08:41. | |
At the moment, you are screened using a CT | :08:42. | :08:46. | |
scanner in hospital, but this ?5 million project | :08:47. | :08:49. | |
will take the scanner out into the community. | :08:50. | :08:52. | |
Similar to the ones used to detect breast cancer, | :08:53. | :08:54. | |
the lung cancer vans will be about the size of a single-decker | :08:55. | :08:57. | |
The project is being led by Doctor Matt Callister. | :08:58. | :09:04. | |
The target age for our study will be people between the | :09:05. | :09:06. | |
ages of 55 and 80 who have ever smoked - either current smokers | :09:07. | :09:11. | |
or smokers who have given up in the past. | :09:12. | :09:14. | |
That's because 86% of lung cancers are caused by smoking, and | :09:15. | :09:17. | |
Yorkshire has one of the highest rates in England. | :09:18. | :09:19. | |
If doctors can get to people before the disease is too advanced, | :09:20. | :09:22. | |
The problem with lung cancer is that, by the | :09:23. | :09:26. | |
time most patients present to us, they have advanced disease and | :09:27. | :09:29. | |
We know that by screening patients we | :09:30. | :09:33. | |
can pick up cancer at a much earlier stage, when it is hopefully suitable | :09:34. | :09:36. | |
for curative treatment, either with surgery | :09:37. | :09:38. | |
If it is successful it could become a | :09:39. | :09:43. | |
national screening programme, and more people like Val will be | :09:44. | :09:47. | |
We'll have more on this story on our late programme, | :09:48. | :09:58. | |
as part of the BBC News at Ten - join us then. | :09:59. | :10:01. | |
The Paralympic gold medallist from Skipton who's launched | :10:02. | :10:06. | |
a project to help disabled children compete alongside | :10:07. | :10:09. | |
Police in South Yorkshire say they're growing increasingly | :10:10. | :10:18. | |
concerned about the number of people using mobile phones while driving. | :10:19. | :10:23. | |
The law gets tougher in a few weeks time - | :10:24. | :10:25. | |
offenders will get six points and a bigger fine. | :10:26. | :10:28. | |
Over 900 people were caught in South Yorkshire last year. | :10:29. | :10:31. | |
Today we were invited out with officers | :10:32. | :10:32. | |
to see how they're tackling the problem. | :10:33. | :10:35. | |
Hello, mate. Hello, mate. | :10:36. | :10:43. | |
Hang on, Danny - I'll ring you back in two minutes. | :10:44. | :10:47. | |
That'll be ?100 fine and three points, then. | :10:48. | :10:52. | |
We've been invited out with South Yorkshire Police. | :10:53. | :10:59. | |
They're driving around Barnsley, spotting | :11:00. | :11:08. | |
people on the mobile phones while they're also driving. | :11:09. | :11:11. | |
They are out all week, to try to convince the | :11:12. | :11:13. | |
public not to call or text or post when they are in charge of a heavy | :11:14. | :11:17. | |
People think it will never happen to them. | :11:18. | :11:20. | |
When you've been and had to pick up the pieces, both | :11:21. | :11:23. | |
physically at the scene and then deal with the families that have | :11:24. | :11:26. | |
been left behind after, you have very little sympathy for people | :11:27. | :11:29. | |
It's not just calling, this driver says he was connecting | :11:30. | :11:32. | |
his phone to his car's Bluetooth - a fine and points for him as well. | :11:33. | :11:36. | |
I don't know if you've heard, but points and the fine go up | :11:37. | :11:39. | |
So, in a way, he's lucky - if he was stopped later this | :11:40. | :11:43. | |
year those penalties would have been double. | :11:44. | :11:44. | |
New rules are coming in - if you are stopped with your mobile | :11:45. | :11:48. | |
phone while driving you'd get six points on your licence. | :11:49. | :11:50. | |
There will be a ?200 fine, and if you are caught | :11:51. | :11:53. | |
twice you could be banned for six months. | :11:54. | :11:55. | |
You are four times more likely to be involved in a crash if you are | :11:56. | :11:58. | |
using your mobile phone when driving. | :11:59. | :12:00. | |
Especially if you are a novice, inexperienced driver. | :12:01. | :12:03. | |
The thing is that even if you present | :12:04. | :12:05. | |
this information to people, they might think these risks apply | :12:06. | :12:07. | |
to the average driver and they are just | :12:08. | :12:09. | |
Back in Barnsley, Sergeant Jones has spotted another. | :12:10. | :12:14. | |
He still on it - he's not even seen me come up the road, look. | :12:15. | :12:18. | |
Some people are so distracted by their phones they | :12:19. | :12:20. | |
don't even spot flashing lights and sirens behind them. | :12:21. | :12:22. | |
Yeah, this gentleman in front of us was on his | :12:23. | :12:25. | |
I've followed him for maybe 200 metres or so now, and he's only just | :12:26. | :12:31. | |
A fine and three points for this chap as well. | :12:32. | :12:37. | |
Do us a favour, mate - just come round the corner | :12:38. | :12:41. | |
So the law is toughening up and, if you | :12:42. | :12:46. | |
know somebody about to pass their driving test, the new rules mean | :12:47. | :12:48. | |
teenagers caught once go straight back to being a learner. | :12:49. | :12:57. | |
The trial has begun of a Bradford taxi driver, who fled to Pakistan | :12:58. | :13:01. | |
after the alleged murders of two men in May five years ago. | :13:02. | :13:04. | |
Mohammed Zubair, who's 36, denies the killings. | :13:05. | :13:08. | |
The prosecution allege that the bodies of Ahmedin Khyel | :13:09. | :13:11. | |
and Imran Khan were dumped in a secluded country lane | :13:12. | :13:14. | |
after they'd been murdered in Mr Zubair's house, in Bradford. | :13:15. | :13:18. | |
Mr Zubair was said to have beaten Mr Khyel, who he accused of having | :13:19. | :13:23. | |
Mr Khan was said to have probably been in the wrong | :13:24. | :13:28. | |
A former dental lecturer at the University of Leeds | :13:29. | :13:33. | |
has been struck off by the General Dental Council, | :13:34. | :13:35. | |
A disciplinary tribunal was told that Doctor Alec High had been | :13:36. | :13:41. | |
overheard by fellow staff - and warned on several | :13:42. | :13:43. | |
occasions about his conduct - but a stream of women were seen | :13:44. | :13:46. | |
Doctor High's name will now be erased from the register. | :13:47. | :13:53. | |
The trust which runs Dewsbury Hospital has written | :13:54. | :13:56. | |
an open letter to two MPs asking them to clear up confusion | :13:57. | :14:05. | |
about the future of it's A department. | :14:06. | :14:07. | |
The Mid Yorkshire Hospitals NHS Trust contacted Tracey Brabin | :14:08. | :14:09. | |
and Paula Sherrif - over concerns the community | :14:10. | :14:11. | |
The letter says the A department is not closing and it | :14:12. | :14:21. | |
will continue to run 24 hours a day, seven days a week. | :14:22. | :14:24. | |
Two police officers have been praised for their bravery | :14:25. | :14:26. | |
after rescuing a mother and child from freezing water this morning. | :14:27. | :14:28. | |
The woman's car left the road and ended up on its side in a water | :14:29. | :14:32. | |
filled ditch in South Milford near Selby. | :14:33. | :14:34. | |
The officers jumped into the icy water to free the woman and child, | :14:35. | :14:37. | |
who were taken to hospital as a precaution. | :14:38. | :14:40. | |
The Police and Crime Commissioner Mark Burns Williamson has applauded | :14:41. | :14:43. | |
Double paralympic gold medallist Danielle Brown has launched | :14:44. | :14:49. | |
a project that helps disabled children compete alongside | :14:50. | :14:52. | |
Danielle - who's an archer from Lothersdale near Skipton - | :14:53. | :15:00. | |
became the first disabled person to represent England | :15:01. | :15:02. | |
in an able-bodied event at the Commonwealth Games. | :15:03. | :15:04. | |
She's now backing the 4 All Games, as Mark Ansell explains. | :15:05. | :15:09. | |
Billy has learning difficulties and is on the autistic spectrum. | :15:10. | :15:13. | |
He rarely gets the chance to play sports, even though he enjoys it and | :15:14. | :15:16. | |
It's just good to see children doing sports and getting fit. | :15:17. | :15:28. | |
The inaugural 4 All Games is just that - for all. | :15:29. | :15:33. | |
Whether the child is disabled, able-bodied or | :15:34. | :15:36. | |
has special educational needs, everyone can take part in | :15:37. | :15:39. | |
James Swallow came up with the idea after struggling to find | :15:40. | :15:46. | |
sporting opportunities for his son, who is autistic. | :15:47. | :15:50. | |
Unfortunately, he went to some sports clubs and some | :15:51. | :15:53. | |
games, and some coaching businesses kind of struggle to work with | :15:54. | :15:58. | |
So, through Liam's point of view, he'd tried his | :15:59. | :16:02. | |
football, the rugby, the cricket, and kind of didn't quite fit | :16:03. | :16:05. | |
in which then obviously knocked his self-confidence a bit. | :16:06. | :16:09. | |
So we had to find different sports to get | :16:10. | :16:11. | |
involved with and fencing was one of the ones he kind of took to. | :16:12. | :16:15. | |
And there's no-one better to support the | :16:16. | :16:17. | |
event than Yorkshire's Danielle Brown - the double Paralympic | :16:18. | :16:20. | |
At the Commonwealth Games in 2010 she won team gold and became | :16:21. | :16:26. | |
the first disabled athlete to represent England in an | :16:27. | :16:30. | |
Danielle is determined for children to have the opportunities | :16:31. | :16:35. | |
I was excluded from PE at school - I spent two hours a week | :16:36. | :16:41. | |
And I didn't know what sports to do, so | :16:42. | :16:46. | |
the reason I ended up doing archery was because | :16:47. | :16:48. | |
I wanted to take part in | :16:49. | :16:50. | |
sport and I didn't know about Paralympic sport. | :16:51. | :16:53. | |
And so many people, at that time in my life, could have | :16:54. | :16:56. | |
told me about all the different inclusive sports there were, but I | :16:57. | :16:58. | |
So, for me, it's something that I'm really passionate about, and it's | :16:59. | :17:03. | |
great working with all these young kids, trying to teach them about | :17:04. | :17:06. | |
inclusivity and get them to take part in sport. | :17:07. | :17:09. | |
The challenge in the afternoon session was | :17:10. | :17:11. | |
playing goal ball, which is blindfolded, seated football. | :17:12. | :17:16. | |
And it's not just about having a go at | :17:17. | :17:19. | |
new sports, they are also taught to be sportsmanlike - sport for | :17:20. | :17:21. | |
A man from Yorkshire is celebrating victory in one of the world's | :17:22. | :17:34. | |
Tom Hollins - who is an anaesthetist at Airedale Hospital raced almost | :17:35. | :17:44. | |
nonstop for 99 hours along the Pennine Way. | :17:45. | :17:46. | |
With the support of his wife Sara, Tom ran through snow, ice, mud, | :17:47. | :17:49. | |
At the finish, he fell asleep almost as soon as a blanket was around him. | :17:50. | :17:55. | |
with what possessed you to do this? I've been asked that so many times | :17:56. | :18:10. | |
and the only answer is it was there. I've done shorter events leading up | :18:11. | :18:14. | |
to this and then just keep going for the next level. Haven't found | :18:15. | :18:18. | |
anything to stop me yet. What was the hardest point? Definitely the | :18:19. | :18:28. | |
finish. Very hilly, foggy, bleak, and I just past the front runners | :18:29. | :18:32. | |
just before that. I was absolutely exhausted. I didn't stop to sleep. | :18:33. | :18:38. | |
The pictures we are seeing now, you're going like a train. How long | :18:39. | :18:43. | |
did you actually run? About 90 hours a think. What were you doing with | :18:44. | :18:52. | |
all this? How you support? I was haring round the Pennine Way in a | :18:53. | :18:58. | |
friend's camper van. Meeting at checkpoints and places in between. | :18:59. | :19:04. | |
Did you get any sleep at all? Nine hours. It must be difficult. Yeah, | :19:05. | :19:16. | |
but I just did. Partly you want to keep progressing, and partly pain. | :19:17. | :19:21. | |
Takers through what you could see at night. The navigation at night time | :19:22. | :19:28. | |
is interesting. Part of the reason why they have some footage here is | :19:29. | :19:32. | |
because it was clear. Most nights it was incredibly foggy. I had a | :19:33. | :19:37. | |
electronic navigation with GPS and a map and compass if that fails. | :19:38. | :19:41. | |
Fortunately I did not have to use them. We should mention a lady who | :19:42. | :19:48. | |
also did this. Carol. We used to work with her. We tried to get in | :19:49. | :19:54. | |
touch with her but she was a bit shy. Can I show you pictures of the | :19:55. | :19:59. | |
finish now? This must have been a moment! Yeah, I loved that wall! | :20:00. | :20:09. | |
What were you feeling at this point? I was already bent double so it was | :20:10. | :20:14. | |
easy for him to put the medal on! Literally all I wanted to do was go | :20:15. | :20:19. | |
to sleep. Were there any point or you thought he wouldn't face? I knew | :20:20. | :20:24. | |
he would finish, without a doubt. At a second to last checkpoint I could | :20:25. | :20:31. | |
tell you was in its to win it. It's funny, he was saying the person who | :20:32. | :20:34. | |
won last year did not actually finish this time around. Is that a | :20:35. | :20:40. | |
warning to you next year? I've got a free place for next year. As the | :20:41. | :20:48. | |
champ? And it's quite expensive to enter because there's a lot of | :20:49. | :20:53. | |
organisation and safety support. Well, best of luck. Let us know how | :20:54. | :20:54. | |
you get on with the next one. The Yorkshire Sculpture park - | :20:55. | :20:57. | |
it's renowned for showcasing the work of artist and sculptors | :20:58. | :20:59. | |
from all over the world but their latest exhibition | :21:00. | :21:04. | |
is accessing art in a different way. Breaking boundaries: Art by email | :21:05. | :21:06. | |
exhibits the work of artists from the Middle East | :21:07. | :21:13. | |
and North Africa who are unable to travel to UK due to political | :21:14. | :21:16. | |
unrest and immigrations conditions. It thought to be the first display | :21:17. | :21:18. | |
of it's kind and I've This is beautiful. The colours are | :21:19. | :21:42. | |
incredible. Tell me about it. I love the fact that this girl could be any | :21:43. | :21:47. | |
girl in any country. The look on her face is so natural. We were keen | :21:48. | :21:52. | |
with this show that we would see inside lives that were not just on | :21:53. | :21:58. | |
the news in war zones. The real positivity and creativity and | :21:59. | :22:03. | |
hopefulness. Responding to an open call, artists from across the world | :22:04. | :22:08. | |
submitted work via e-mail. They cannot travel to the UK due to | :22:09. | :22:12. | |
political unrest and immigration conditions but their work can. We | :22:13. | :22:17. | |
can work with partners all over the world in a way that we had not been | :22:18. | :22:23. | |
able to. This piece is clever. It is by an Iranian artist. He's admitted | :22:24. | :22:28. | |
the instructions for the sculpture to be printed, via e-mail, and here | :22:29. | :22:32. | |
I can see it being created from the other side of the world. People | :22:33. | :22:41. | |
wrote down their thoughts on their environment and their culture. | :22:42. | :22:43. | |
Visitors here are asked to do the same and the notes are displayed. It | :22:44. | :22:49. | |
is an idea by an artist. How does it feel to have your work displayed in | :22:50. | :22:52. | |
the UK even though you cannot be here? It is great feeling. If you're | :22:53. | :23:02. | |
artwork is in a different country, you've heard about, there is artwork | :23:03. | :23:10. | |
from Henry Moore, it will be a great feeling. And that feeling history at | :23:11. | :23:17. | |
3000 miles away in Yorkshire. It's fantastic, is showing art where we | :23:18. | :23:24. | |
can't access it. These pieces here, you have the contrast of the | :23:25. | :23:29. | |
conflict and European Western culture. I think those two pieces | :23:30. | :23:33. | |
are quite symbolic. It is hoped this will be the first of many | :23:34. | :23:37. | |
exhibitions where ideas and art can travel even if people cannot. | :23:38. | :23:43. | |
And it is open until the 5th of March. | :23:44. | :23:45. | |
What do you do when your polar bear needs his teeth checked? | :23:46. | :23:49. | |
Yes, it was a big operation for the Yorkshire Wildlife Park | :23:50. | :23:53. | |
when Victor had a visit from the dentist. | :23:54. | :23:56. | |
They needed five vets, 11 rangers, and 11 Fire Service staff | :23:57. | :24:55. | |

Very foggy this morning. In the first picture you can see a bit of | :25:12. | :25:32. | |
Mr Ness. A pretty nice morning. Then you can see a bit of missed in the | :25:33. | :25:38. | |
field. It has been very foggy and in some places it has not lifted all | :25:39. | :25:43. | |
day. We'll so had a widespread frost. I don't think there will be | :25:44. | :25:47. | |
as much fog or frost as we go into tomorrow. Keep the pictures coming | :25:48. | :25:56. | |
in. Not as many problems with frost or fog this coming night. | :25:57. | :26:03. | |
Brightening up with some sunshine after a bit of a grey start | :26:04. | :26:07. | |
tomorrow. Through the afternoon we will see cloud increasing. It will | :26:08. | :26:12. | |
get chilly over the next few days. On Thursday the breeze off the | :26:13. | :26:16. | |
continent will make it very cold. Temperatures in some places will | :26:17. | :26:20. | |
struggle to get above two or three degrees. This afternoon we seen some | :26:21. | :26:27. | |
misty nurse and foggy lingering. Elsewhere more cloud has spread | :26:28. | :26:31. | |
across and we could get more misty nurse in the short time but apart | :26:32. | :26:35. | |
from the Vale of York there will be too much breeze that any problems | :26:36. | :26:39. | |
like that. Perhaps even a little drizzle across the Dales. Otherwise | :26:40. | :26:43. | |
dry night to come. Temperatures to freezing. A little cooler than this | :26:44. | :26:50. | |
as we go through the next few hours. The sun will rise in the morning | :26:51. | :26:59. | |
just after eight o'clock. Will start the day with a mixture, a bit of | :27:00. | :27:06. | |
cloud but some brighter spells developing for a time at least, | :27:07. | :27:11. | |
across north and west Yorkshire, before this thick cloud spreads | :27:12. | :27:17. | |
across. First into South and East Yorkshire before spreading westwards | :27:18. | :27:21. | |
across the rest of the region. The West and North will hang on to the | :27:22. | :27:25. | |
best of the brightness. Temperatures will get up to four or 5 degrees | :27:26. | :27:27. | |
under the cloud. Don't forget, Our Dancing Town - | :27:28. | :27:29. | |
based in Huddersfield this week - That's it from us. We'll be back as | :27:30. | :27:43. | |
part of the ten o'clock News. Hope you can join us then. By both an | :27:44. | :27:44. | |
hour. | :27:45. | :27:48. |
