Good evening. at a quarter past ten -

:00:07.:00:07.

Hundreds of people have marched through Worksop to protest

:00:08.:00:09.

about the overnight closure of the children's ward

:00:10.:00:12.

The trust says it's due to staff shortages and it's

:00:13.:00:17.

the safest option, but campaigners fear

:00:18.:00:19.

Signs of protest in Worksop today, a demonstration of people's worry

:00:20.:00:28.

and anger at the closure of overnight care

:00:29.:00:32.

on Bassetlaw Hospital's children's ward.

:00:33.:00:34.

Save our children's ward, save our children's ward!

:00:35.:00:37.

After seven at night, the nearest alternative is now

:00:38.:00:39.

Around 500 people took part in today's rally,

:00:40.:00:46.

including Michael and his son Midge, who has lung disease.

:00:47.:00:50.

If anything happens through the night,

:00:51.:00:52.

You have to go to Doncaster, presumably.

:00:53.:00:56.

That's probably Doncaster, yeah, which is

:00:57.:00:57.

I've been hearing reports about other children

:00:58.:01:00.

being shipped over to Doncaster in the early hours of the morning

:01:01.:01:03.

really poorly and it frightens me to death.

:01:04.:01:06.

And the whole of the surrounding area is with us...

:01:07.:01:08.

One vocal critic has been the local Labour MP, John Mann.

:01:09.:01:12.

He is worried this is the thin end of the wedge

:01:13.:01:15.

If this situation continues, sadly, then there will be lives lost.

:01:16.:01:22.

and they shouldn't be prepared to take that risk.

:01:23.:01:27.

While hundreds of protesters assembled outside the

:01:28.:01:29.

hospital today, it's the number of people working

:01:30.:01:32.

These campaigners say those staff shortages have been

:01:33.:01:57.

They intend to keep on campaigning until

:01:58.:02:04.

the children's ward here at Bassetlaw Hospital behind me

:02:05.:02:07.

A new report says Bradford is the most affordable place

:02:08.:02:12.

Lloyds Bank looked at prices and earnings in 61

:02:13.:02:17.

They found homes in Bradford cost

:02:18.:02:20.

only around four times average earnings.

:02:21.:02:23.

Meanwhile, York is in the top twenty list of the most

:02:24.:02:26.

Football now and in the the first of two Yorkshire derbies,

:02:27.:02:33.

an important home victory for Leeds against Sheffield Wednesday.

:02:34.:02:39.

The only goal came 23 minutes into the first half.

:02:40.:02:42.

Gaetano Berardi swung a ball in for Chris Wood who tucked home

:02:43.:02:45.

The Owls had a chance to equalise in the second half when Dukara

:02:46.:02:49.

fouled Hutchinson, but Jordan Rhodes saw his penalty

:02:50.:02:51.

Yeah, I thought it was a very good game.

:02:52.:03:05.

I was very pleased with the way that we had our game plan.

:03:06.:03:08.

We managed that game plan really well

:03:09.:03:10.

First-half, I thought we looked really much on the front foot,

:03:11.:03:13.

we were the team were creating and pushing and we got our goal

:03:14.:03:17.

the second half, playing against a very good side

:03:18.:03:20.

in Sheffield Wednesday, for them to put some pressure on,

:03:21.:03:23.

even throughout that pressure, I felt we dealt with it

:03:24.:03:25.

In the other Yorkshire derby, Huddersfield could only manage

:03:26.:03:30.

And Rotherham remain rooted to the bottom of the Championship

:03:31.:03:35.

In League One, Chesterfield's winless run was extended

:03:36.:03:40.

to seven games by visitors Oxford United who won 4-0.

:03:41.:03:44.

But Bradford beat Port Vale 2-1 to move fifth and Sheffield United

:03:45.:03:48.

extended their lead at the top by beating Bolton Wanderers 2-0.

:03:49.:03:56.

And in League Two Doncaster Rovers drew 2-2 with Accrington Stanley.

:03:57.:04:00.

Sporting history was made at Siddal today when the first transatlantic

:04:01.:04:03.

Toronto Wolfpack won their third round Challenge Cup tie

:04:04.:04:09.

against the amateur side, but only just.

:04:10.:04:12.

Siddal did themselves proud narrowly losing by 14 points to six.

:04:13.:04:17.

The match was shown worldwide by the BBC -

:04:18.:04:19.

with many viewers tuning in in North America.

:04:20.:04:25.

Quite a cloudy night on the cards for parts of Yorkshire

:04:26.:04:32.

and we will see some rain tracking down towards the south-east.

:04:33.:04:35.

Easing as we head through the early hours of tomorrow morning,

:04:36.:04:37.

so just a few showers to wake up to first thing.

:04:38.:04:40.

Temperatures only dropping to five or six Celsius

:04:41.:04:43.

Drier and brighter with sunny spells, particularly

:04:44.:04:47.

I think the east coast should fare quite well.

:04:48.:04:51.

Before some rain arrives during the afternoon,

:04:52.:04:53.

That's all we have time for this evening.

:04:54.:04:59.

Charlotte's here just before six on Sunday.

:05:00.:05:07.

Good evening. Starting with a quick look at the satellite sequence from

:05:08.:05:20.

earlier. We started under a big blanket of cloud but Scotland and

:05:21.:05:24.

Northern Ireland brightened up as the day went off. Underneath the

:05:25.:05:27.

cloud in England and Wales, quite a bit of rain at the moment, drifting

:05:28.:05:33.

southwards and East. It will continue to do so. In the small

:05:34.:05:37.

hours the rain will become patchy, and most will give way to the

:05:38.:05:41.

continent. There will be some breaks, particularly to the East of

:05:42.:05:45.

Scotland, where there could be a touch of frost. Next batch of rain

:05:46.:05:50.

into the western side of Scotland first thing, moving east with a

:05:51.:05:53.

little snow over higher ground. Another pulse of rain coming towards

:05:54.:05:57.

the Irish Sea area and with that comes really strong

:05:58.:05:59.
