:01:28. > :01:31.She was found guilty earlier this month of disseminating a terrorist
:01:32. > :01:32.publication on the social media website Twitter.
:01:33. > :01:35.That publication was a speech written by the leader of so-called
:01:36. > :01:40.At 6:20am on 21st October 2015, police from the north-east
:01:41. > :01:46.counterterrorism unit burst into Mary Kaya's home
:01:47. > :01:49.They arrested her, her husband and took her three children
:01:50. > :01:53.Then her computer was seized to find out exactly
:01:54. > :02:02.During the four-day long trial, the court had heard that Kaya
:02:03. > :02:05.retweeted a link to the IS speech and that her computer had also
:02:06. > :02:08.been used to research radical Islamic preachers,
:02:09. > :02:12.IS supporters, people who travelled to Syria and footage of explosions.
:02:13. > :02:18.But viewing such footage is not the same as disseminating it.

:02:34. > :02:37.Immediate custody would not serve any purpose."
:02:38. > :02:39.But he warned others who did the same in the future

:03:09. > :03:11.Well, earlier I spoke to Nick Robinson, a Social Media
:03:12. > :03:13.Radicalisation expert at the University of Leeds.
:03:14. > :03:17.I asked him how the police could prove that the women
:03:18. > :03:19.were intending to encourage terrorism.
:03:20. > :03:24.There are two fundamental questions, I guess.
:03:25. > :03:28.One is, what is the nature of the content itself?
:03:29. > :03:30.And is that content seem to be highly damaging,
:03:31. > :03:38.ethically problematic, excessively violent or what have you?
:03:39. > :03:41.And is also the very act of using social media in and of
:03:42. > :03:45.Quite often at the moment in the conversation about
:03:46. > :03:49.social media, we see social media not just as a place in which
:03:50. > :03:51.information is exchanged, but as a place where
:03:52. > :03:52.people come together and
:03:53. > :03:54.create communities, which build affinities for certain kinds of
:03:55. > :03:57.viewpoints, and that is where the conversation about social media
:03:58. > :04:05.Where do we draw the line between radicalisation
:04:06. > :04:09.That I think is the fundamentally thorniest question of all.
:04:10. > :04:12.With social media at the moment, I think we've decided that it's
:04:13. > :04:18.So, in other words, it's free to move material around
:04:19. > :04:20.and the post office, or the postal service,
:04:21. > :04:24.isn't responsible for what that material is.
:04:25. > :04:27.That, I think, is the position we're at at the moment,
:04:28. > :04:29.but it raises incredibly complicated ethical and moral questions.
:04:30. > :04:31.So, is the message then, think before you tweet?
:04:32. > :04:34.Or are you putting the onus on the actual company,
:04:35. > :04:47.Well, on a purely personal level, I do think there is a balance here.
:04:48. > :04:50.At the moment your viewers may well be aware that the Government has
:04:51. > :04:53.introduced law in December 2016 to put an onus on the Internet
:04:54. > :04:56.service providers to retain records of all of our social media
:04:57. > :05:03.So that the police can get access to that. They are very unhappy about
:05:04. > :05:08.that. But I do think at the moment it is absolutely imperative that
:05:09. > :05:12.people do take responsibility for their own behaviour. I mean, if you
:05:13. > :05:16.were to shout or at tax on the industry, you could be prosecuted
:05:17. > :05:20.for that. So to shout or attack somebody on social media could be
:05:21. > :05:23.seen as exactly the same kind of action. OK, Nick Robinson, thank you
:05:24. > :05:26.very much for your time this evening.
:05:27. > :05:29.Smokers under the age of 50 are more than eight times as likely
:05:30. > :05:32.as non-smokers to suffer a major heart attack, according to research
:05:33. > :05:40.The study found that all smokers are at increased risk
:05:41. > :05:43.but younger ones are particularly vulnerable compared to those
:05:44. > :05:46.Our health correspondent Jamie Coulson reports.
:05:47. > :05:49.Until a couple of months ago, Trevor Rossall thought he was fit
:05:50. > :05:57.and reasonably healthy, despite being a smoker
:05:58. > :05:59.the 39-year-old exercise, ate healthily and drink in moderation.
:06:00. > :06:02.But at the end of January, he developed severe chest pains,
:06:03. > :06:08.which turned out to be a life-threatening heart attack.
:06:09. > :06:11.I went to hospital with severe indigestion, never for one minute
:06:12. > :06:13.thought that it was anything other than severe indigestion.
:06:14. > :06:28.To be told that I'd had a heart attack was very scary.
:06:29. > :06:30.Every time you smoke, blood that's thick and dirty
:06:31. > :06:33.with toxins circulates through your body in seconds,
:06:34. > :06:35.increasing your chances of a heart attack.
:06:36. > :06:38.There are plenty of warnings that make it fairly clear that smoking
:06:39. > :06:40.is bad for your health, but now researchers have been able
:06:41. > :06:43.to quantify exactly how much of a risk smoking has
:06:44. > :06:50.on your chances of having a heart attack.
:06:51. > :06:52.So, this is a left coronary angiogram...
:06:53. > :06:54.The study, which was led by Sheffield teaching hospitals,
:06:55. > :06:57.looked at the admission data for more than 1700 patients who had
:06:58. > :06:59.experienced a classic type of heart attack,
:07:00. > :07:01.where one of the major arteries becomes blocked.
:07:02. > :07:03.The information was then compared to local populations' smoking
:07:04. > :07:10.Research has found that smokers are more than three times
:07:11. > :07:15.as likely as nonsmokers to have a heart attack.
:07:16. > :07:21.At in the under 50s, who tend not to have other
:07:22. > :07:22.contributory factors, smokers were more than
:07:23. > :07:27.However, the risk of a heart attack in ex-smokers was similar to those
:07:28. > :07:34.I think if you're a smoker, you're at significant risk
:07:35. > :07:37.These heart attacks are preventable, and by abstaining you can

:08:18. > :08:19.reports that schoolgirls in Leeds are playing truant because they
:08:20. > :08:25.The issue was raised by Paula Sheriff in the House
:08:26. > :08:32.of Commons this afternoon, and this morning, tens of thousands
:08:33. > :08:35.of packs of sanitary towels were donated to a charity to hand
:08:36. > :08:47.A delivery of essentials, over 1000 boxes of sanitary towels for girls
:08:48. > :08:50.who can't afford them, donated by a charity and delivered to a food
:08:51. > :08:54.distribution centre in Leeds, they will be sent out to schools along
:08:55. > :09:01.with cereal for breakfast clubs. So these are sample packs, most of them
:09:02. > :09:05.that have been delivered. This is just one day's worth. It's going to
:09:06. > :09:11.make a huge difference, I think, to the girls who need it. Obviously not
:09:12. > :09:16.all girls need it, people can afford sanitary protection. But the ones
:09:17. > :09:21.who don't, can't afford it or are struggling, we can now supply them,
:09:22. > :09:25.and that's great. The donation was prompted after some teenagers in
:09:26. > :09:29.Leeds admitted staying at home when they had a period because they
:09:30. > :09:32.didn't have or couldn't afford sanitary products. Their stories
:09:33. > :09:36.were first reported by radio Leeds and then Radio 4's women's hour.
:09:37. > :09:39.I wrapped a sock around my underwear just to stop the bleeding,
:09:40. > :09:41.because I didn't want to get shouted at.
:09:42. > :09:43.And I wrapped a whole tissue roll around my underwear just
:09:44. > :09:48.to keep my underwear dry til I got home.
:09:49. > :09:56.They can be expensive. For a pack like this, you're looking at about
:09:57. > :10:00.?1. The prices vary enormously and I just been checking online and you
:10:01. > :10:04.can get a supermarket own brand for just 30p, so it is possible to do it
:10:05. > :10:08.cheaper. But whichever way you look at it, if you have a couple of
:10:09. > :10:15.daughters in one family, the monthly bill will add up. This afternoon the
:10:16. > :10:20.MP for Dewsbury raised the issue in the House of Commons. I would urge
:10:21. > :10:27.the government to raise the question of how period poverty can be tackled
:10:28. > :10:32.in schools, including education and looking at the possibility of
:10:33. > :10:40.providing eligibility for free school meals to provide sanitary
:10:41. > :10:42.towels to young girls. Now, this batch of donated sanitary ware will
:10:43. > :10:46.go some way to helping those in need.

:11:07. > :11:08.were found guilty of failing to adequately asses
:11:09. > :11:14.Since 2011, we have implemented a robust risk assessment related
:11:15. > :11:18.to windows in our care homes, and will learn any lessons from this
:11:19. > :11:20.case to ensure we continue to put residents and their safety
:11:21. > :11:23.and well-being at the heart of what we do.
:11:24. > :11:26.We want to reassure our residents and families in all our care homes
:11:27. > :11:29.that they are safe and will continue to receive high-quality care.

:12:07. > :12:10.The MP for Elmet and Rothwell, Alec Shelbrooke, told the Commons
:12:11. > :12:12.the man responsible will soon be freed from jail.
:12:13. > :12:16.Those who cause death by drink-driving should face a
:12:17. > :12:20.manslaughter charge rather than the current charge which carries a
:12:21. > :12:25.maximum sentence of ten years. Callum's killer just got seven years
:12:26. > :12:29.and will serve only three and a half years before returning to his home
:12:30. > :12:30.country of Bulgarian, where he will be free to drive unrestricted once
:12:31. > :12:35.again. Hundreds of jobs could be
:12:36. > :12:37.created at a new theme park Gulliver's, who already run
:12:38. > :12:40.a park at Matlock Bath, It will be built on land
:12:41. > :12:53.near the Rother Valley country park, And Ian White can tell us about it
:12:54. > :12:58.now. Soon a theme park similar to this one will be up and running in
:12:59. > :13:01.South Yorkshire. Eight site next to the Rother Valley country Park near
:13:02. > :13:05.Rotherham has been identified and after much toing and froing been
:13:06. > :13:09.given planning permission to be home to the new Gulliver's Kingdom. We've
:13:10. > :13:12.been looking for a site where we can bring all the best bits of Gulliver
:13:13. > :13:22.'s together in one site and for that we need area. 250 acres in Rother
:13:23. > :13:26.Valley have allowed us to do that. Many of Rotherham's traditional
:13:27. > :13:29.industries are long gone, so a new theme park will bring around 250 two
:13:30. > :13:37.jobs to an area which desperately needs them. It's a classic example
:13:38. > :13:41.of the private sector and public sector working hand in glove. We
:13:42. > :13:45.have a tanning team that are very focused on delivery and we work very
:13:46. > :13:51.closely with the company to make this project come to fruition. The
:13:52. > :13:55.company promises a wide range of jobs, with the chance for young
:13:56. > :13:59.people to make a real career in the industry. People like Scott who
:14:00. > :14:03.works in the leisure, legs at Matlock Bath. I didn't realise there
:14:04. > :14:08.would be such a variety of careers and such a chance to progress within
:14:09. > :14:11.the company. I came with the chance to earn some money over the summer
:14:12. > :14:15.antennae as late I have worked my way up. We really believe in growing
:14:16. > :14:18.organically. We will start relatively small and as people get
:14:19. > :14:21.used to us and we see what the reaction is, we will then keep
:14:22. > :14:24.increasing and putting that money back into the same project and
:14:25. > :14:30.increasing it as we have done for the last 40 years. With signatures
:14:31. > :14:33.barely dry on all the documentation, there have already been 300
:14:34. > :14:35.inquiries for local people looking to work at the new leisure Park.
:14:36. > :14:40.We will keep you updated as that story progresses over the weeks and
:14:41. > :14:44.months ahead. It's been 70 years since
:14:45. > :14:46.the nationalisation of the coal industry and we've had a sneak peak
:14:47. > :14:49.at a new exhibition "By the People For the People" opens
:14:50. > :15:00.at the National Coal The subject of nationalisation has
:15:01. > :15:05.long been a political hot potato and the curators say this
:15:06. > :15:07.exhitibiton is already Our correspondent Danni Hewson
:15:08. > :15:14.has been for a look. These are key men in Britain's key
:15:15. > :15:17.industry. The Second World War was over and Britain was trying to get
:15:18. > :15:23.back on its feet. Coal meant power and power meant progress. So the
:15:24. > :15:27.struggling mining industry was brought into public ownership. The
:15:28. > :15:32.output that was needed to rebuild Britain couldn't have happened under
:15:33. > :15:37.private ownership. So nationalisation allowed that massive
:15:38. > :15:45.influx of investment to be made and it certainly wrought huge, positive
:15:46. > :15:48.changes. These changes deliberately romanticise the newly nationalised
:15:49. > :15:53.coal industry. They are a snapshot of history. But even in the present,
:15:54. > :15:57.debates about the pros and cons of nationalisation keep recurring. And
:15:58. > :16:02.this exhibition seeks to provoke debate. There's even a fantasy
:16:03. > :16:05.Question Time panel featuring figures who have impacted one way or
:16:06. > :16:10.another on industries from coal to rail. For the artist, it's been a
:16:11. > :16:14.unique challenge. It's trying to get under the skin of them as well. And
:16:15. > :16:20.understand the road evasion or the stories behind even the famous
:16:21. > :16:26.people, I think, and show maybe a bit of a hidden if possible. Here,
:16:27. > :16:29.it was hard not to go too far on Margaret Thatcher.
:16:30. > :16:33.CHUCKLES There's no way you can push politics
:16:34. > :16:38.aside here. While clearly nationalisation wasn't a panacea,
:16:39. > :16:41.many former miners say it brought the kind of security that vanished
:16:42. > :16:45.when the industry returned to private hands. The problem we had
:16:46. > :16:49.over the last 20 years is that we didn't have the security that we had
:16:50. > :16:53.before and people were for ever looking over their shoulder and
:16:54. > :16:57.wondering when was their job going to go next? Whereas when I first
:16:58. > :17:03.started in 1971, you didn't have that problem. You went to the pit,
:17:04. > :17:05.you had a job for life. Deep mining's story may be over but this
:17:06. > :17:09.chapter at least is being remembered.
:17:10. > :17:20.Four lucky schoolgirls from Wakefield were chosen to do
:17:21. > :17:22.some intercontinental star-spotting on the BBC's Stargazing Live
:17:23. > :17:27.Wakefield, did you know this, is one of the most light-polluted
:17:28. > :17:32.But the girls were able to access the pristine dark skies
:17:33. > :17:35.of Australia and New Mexico using the latest online technology.
:17:36. > :17:37.It meant that they could remotely access huge eye telescopes
:17:38. > :17:41.to get some amazing views, like this, of the night sky.
:17:42. > :17:49.Before I start talking to you, I just have to show you where I am.
:17:50. > :17:56.The roof opened up just a couple of minutes ago for you,
:17:57. > :18:00.So, have you decided which object you're going to try
:18:01. > :18:05.We've had a look at the Horsehead nebula, the Tarantula nebula
:18:06. > :18:07.and the Orion nebula, and we think we're going to go
:18:08. > :18:15.I feel like I should challenge you to try that one!
:18:16. > :18:25.Well, I tell you something, they have come down to earth with a bunch
:18:26. > :18:36.tonight, because the girls are here the night! Georgia, Francoise, Emma
:18:37. > :18:40.and Himaja. It was a great experience for us, we learned so
:18:41. > :18:44.much. In the run-up to taking the images, we were very fortunate we
:18:45. > :18:47.had some training from Doctor Christian and that was really good
:18:48. > :18:53.because he explained to us how the telescopes work. Himaja, this was
:18:54. > :18:56.one of the most explains -- space amazing week spirits is you could
:18:57. > :19:00.have come how come you were chosen to do it? We were all brilliant
:19:01. > :19:04.wristed in physics at school and enjoy the lessons and we were
:19:05. > :19:08.interested in astronomy as well, there is astronomy club, which we
:19:09. > :19:12.attended. Emma, let me ask you first of all, there's always this great
:19:13. > :19:15.hope that you might just find something new out there. What is the
:19:16. > :19:19.main thing that you were looking for last night or hoped to find, really?
:19:20. > :19:27.We were just looking for the Horsehead nebula, that was what we
:19:28. > :19:30.want to define but we also saw the tarantula dealer and the Orion
:19:31. > :19:34.nebula, so that has been really interesting. There is a programme
:19:35. > :19:37.looking for the ninth planet and that is something viewers can do on
:19:38. > :19:42.the Internet. Georgia, was this something you had looked into before
:19:43. > :19:45.is this really a new interest? This is a new interest, I'd not really
:19:46. > :19:49.done anything like this before. But having taken part in the programme,
:19:50. > :19:53.I will try to get more involved in future. I've got a telescope at home
:19:54. > :20:01.and I do my level best virtually every night to try to find a star
:20:02. > :20:05.out there but I can't even find the bloomin Moon! Do you need a special
:20:06. > :20:12.telescope or could someone like me actually do it? Come on, tell me. It
:20:13. > :20:18.depends. For us, we're quite lucky, the telescopes that we used, there
:20:19. > :20:23.was a lot of software that does it for you. See, that is not any kind
:20:24. > :20:27.of telescope is it? We're not going to see that! These telescopes are
:20:28. > :20:32.special because they are very big and the refraction is less, so it
:20:33. > :20:36.will fix onto a guiding star, it will follow the turning of the
:20:37. > :20:41.Earth. That is a lot easier than just using a manual telescope. It's
:20:42. > :20:45.funny because Paul Hudson, our Web man, is a bit of a planned three
:20:46. > :20:49.expert. He will be fascinated by this. I know there is a search going
:20:50. > :20:54.on at the moment for a hidden planet, is that right? Have I got
:20:55. > :21:02.that right? The age of the solar system. I think so, I think it is in
:21:03. > :21:06.the Kuiper Belt. I know it well! Geld, I don't want to sound sexist
:21:07. > :21:11.here, but isn't it more likely that boys tend to be more interested in
:21:12. > :21:17.astronomy, or has all that changed? I think it can be seen as more of a
:21:18. > :21:20.boys thing, but particularly at our school it's not like that and there
:21:21. > :21:25.are plenty of girls interested in physics, so I think things are
:21:26. > :21:30.changing for the better. Do you think this has got your duty as so
:21:31. > :21:33.much that you will go on with this for years now? Our physics teacher
:21:34. > :21:37.at school has really encouraged us to try to get involved, so we will
:21:38. > :21:44.try to keep it up. Future Christmas presents, are we looking at
:21:45. > :21:45.telescopes? Yeah! Well done, keep that enthusiasm going. It's been
:21:46. > :21:55.lovely to talk to you. Thank you. Cue bunnies, eggs and all
:21:56. > :21:58.things chocolatey. In York they really know a thing
:21:59. > :22:01.or two about chocolate. The city is still the home of Nestle
:22:02. > :22:04.and used to employ thousands in the confectionery
:22:05. > :22:05.trade at Terry's. It's prompted the Castle Museum
:22:06. > :22:08.to celebrate York's sweet links. Cathy Killick's been
:22:09. > :22:35.for a look round. # And your name
:22:36. > :22:42.# Does the same for years # By coincidence... We have indulged
:22:43. > :22:45.our taste for sweets since the 15 hundredths, but now the Castle
:22:46. > :22:50.Museum in York is celebrating all things sweet. Mr Joseph Rowntree and
:22:51. > :22:55.Mr Terry established chocolate factories in York in Victorian
:22:56. > :22:59.times. There is a new sweet shop in town full of delicious looking
:23:00. > :23:04.goodies in but careful, these are decades old. Here is Terry 's desert
:23:05. > :23:09.chocolate apple, the forerunner of the chocolate Orange. It wasn't
:23:10. > :23:14.chocolate flavoured but it would be delivered to guess that the end of
:23:15. > :23:18.the meal. This item here is his round cocoa tin Kameni took this on
:23:19. > :23:24.an expedition to the Arctic in 1910 but brought it back I'm used. These
:23:25. > :23:31.lozenges were stamped with little flirty messages, are you in love,
:23:32. > :23:37.will you marry me? The lozenges can tell old tales. I want a wife... Ask
:23:38. > :23:46.mama... Oh, you vixen! Over these dollar days we will be
:23:47. > :23:49.demonstrating making chocolate eggs and the outlook will be able to come
:23:50. > :23:53.in and try some of their home. I see you've been very busy, they look
:23:54. > :24:00.great. And also some conversation lozenges. Very nice, just for us.
:24:01. > :24:05.There's no girl like a Yorkshire girl for dexterity and quickness in
:24:06. > :24:10.squeezing out the swirls of chocolate. At least that's what they
:24:11. > :24:12.say! Chocolate made York rich and famous, so it's a past worth
:24:13. > :24:18.celebrating. BBC Look North, York. Good to see I'm not nearly one who
:24:19. > :24:29.loves you! Paul, you are fascinated by the
:24:30. > :24:33.girls coming in and talking about astronomy. On a Friday night, you
:24:34. > :24:37.love to look through a telescope! I do, most weekends will stop you got
:24:38. > :24:42.a really powerful telescope, I've no idea why you can't see the stars...
:24:43. > :24:44.Me and you could have a Saturday night together with a look at the
:24:45. > :24:52.night sky. I can hardly wait! pictures that came in in the last
:24:53. > :24:56.24-hour is, that is Sheffield. That is the golf course overlooking the
:24:57. > :25:01.city. The second picture that has come in from Cannon Hall, with the
:25:02. > :25:09.flowers looking really nice. Keep the pictures coming in. The BBC
:25:10. > :25:13.weather Watchers website or tweet them to me. Let's have a look at the
:25:14. > :25:16.rooftop camera because it has been an exceptional March day,
:25:17. > :25:20.temperatures in Sheffield at five o'clock reaching 19 degrees, which
:25:21. > :25:23.actually is the average for early June, so it has been exceptionally
:25:24. > :25:27.warm. The next couple of days not looking too bad, a little bit
:25:28. > :25:31.fresher but averages will still be on the warm side. Sunny spells and
:25:32. > :25:34.scattered showers, that is the headline for Friday. Just a heads up
:25:35. > :25:38.for the weekend, Sunday looks to be the best date and that ridge of high
:25:39. > :25:46.pressure means all parts will be dry with some sunshine, one or two
:25:47. > :25:51.showers on Friday but it is not that bad as we head into early April.
:25:52. > :25:55.What a contrast north-west to south-east. Sheffield and Augusta
:25:56. > :26:00.into Lincolnshire, temperatures 19-21 , but it has been very wet at
:26:01. > :26:04.times across the Yorkshire Dales and continuing to see rain pulsing up
:26:05. > :26:09.from the south-west, areas towards Leeming and Topcliffe quite wet for
:26:10. > :26:13.a time. But that is going to push away northwards, so I suspect
:26:14. > :26:16.eastern parts of Yorkshire will be largely dry, just one or two
:26:17. > :26:24.showers, and certainly a very mild night to come and a breezy one with
:26:25. > :26:32.temperatures as low as 11 Celsius. The sun rises in the morning at
:26:33. > :26:36.6:43am. A bit of patchy rain possible in the West first thing,
:26:37. > :26:40.that will relax away northwards. Skies will brighten and then it is a
:26:41. > :26:44.day of variable cloud, some sunshine but always the risk of one or two
:26:45. > :26:47.showers breaking out especially through the afternoon. One or two of
:26:48. > :26:50.those could be on the heavy side, isolated features and then into
:26:51. > :26:54.tomorrow evening it looks like the showers will die away and we will
:26:55. > :26:58.all end up on a fine and sunny note. The temperature is a little down on
:26:59. > :27:03.today's values but not to be sniffed at for the end of March, 16 Celsius
:27:04. > :27:09.the high, that is a very pleasant 61 Fahrenheit. So, the further outlook,
:27:10. > :27:12.Saturday a little bit of instability means we could see one or two
:27:13. > :27:17.showers breaking out and it will be a cooler day as well but some
:27:18. > :27:21.sunshine around. Sunday looks a nice day, dry with some sunshine. Monday
:27:22. > :27:25.looking good too. All in all it is not looking too bad.
:27:26. > :27:30.Sad night for us because we are saying goodbye to Lara, you've got
:27:31. > :27:34.one more programme. Last night together, Harry. You've been
:27:35. > :27:40.fantastic to work with and we all wish you the very best. It's been
:27:41. > :27:53.good fun, hasn't it? Thank you very much, goodbye.
:27:54. > :28:08.For full sets and more from the weekend,
