:00:57. > :01:01.Good evening. Welcome to the start of the weekend. A comeback for car-
:01:02. > :01:07.making in Coventry. Jaguar's former Browns Lane plant
:01:07. > :01:11.is partially reopening. Automotive specialist CPP Global Holdings is
:01:11. > :01:15.moving in with a potential investment of at �75 million. That
:01:15. > :01:22.could create up to 1000 jobs. The same number lost when Jaguar
:01:22. > :01:26.stopped production in 2005. A year later, 2000 jobs went as Peugeot
:01:26. > :01:33.left Ryton. Different to the days when up to 80,000 people and their
:01:33. > :01:37.living from car-making and Coventry was known as Britain's Motor City.
:01:37. > :01:42.The Browns Lane plant in Coventry, once the envy of the world, it
:01:42. > :01:47.produced iconic sought-after cars but since 2005, this is what most
:01:47. > :01:51.of the site has been reduced to. Today was a turning-point. CPP
:01:51. > :01:55.Global Holdings plans to start production of high quality
:01:55. > :01:58.components and specialist cars including the Spyker on the site.
:01:58. > :02:03.We should not underestimate the history of the site. Around the
:02:03. > :02:09.world, people know the names. I think it adds to our story of which
:02:09. > :02:15.adds to our project. -- product. I think Coventry will be the centre
:02:15. > :02:19.for low-volume vehicle design many factoring. Come to re-already has
:02:19. > :02:23.five sites across Coventry employing 250 people. By bringing
:02:23. > :02:28.all production to Browns Lane plant, it plans to create hundreds more
:02:28. > :02:33.jobs. What do those who worked in the city's car industry make of
:02:33. > :02:39.this new chapter in its motoring heritage? Of course it is good news,
:02:39. > :02:46.provided you can get the skilled people. More work for people. I
:02:46. > :02:50.wish it well but it is perhaps the car for the Times, but it is not as
:02:51. > :02:58.I remember it. A it is 50 years ago since this classic a chap Europe
:02:58. > :03:02.was first produced at Browns Lane plant. -- classic Jaguar. The city
:03:02. > :03:07.council says it is prove that Coventry's future as well as its
:03:07. > :03:12.past is synonymous with cars. That is in a city currently with an
:03:12. > :03:16.unemployment rate 2% higher than the national average. I am hoping
:03:16. > :03:20.that when CPP Global Holdings take over the 23 acres on this side and
:03:20. > :03:25.start manufacturing, that will encourage other manufacturers to
:03:25. > :03:30.move on to other parts of the side. If all goes to plan, the multi-
:03:30. > :03:33.million-pound redevelopment project will start next spring.
:03:33. > :03:38.With us now is of Professor David Bailey from Coventry University
:03:38. > :03:42.Business School. I suppose we should not get too excited but it
:03:42. > :03:46.sounds like good news? Let us remember that when Jaguar left,
:03:46. > :03:50.there were over 1000 job losses. CPP Global Holdings will not create
:03:50. > :03:54.anything like that but they have taken a big chunk of the site and
:03:54. > :04:00.it could lead to more engineering jobs. Why are CPP Global Holdings
:04:00. > :04:07.doing this at this time? They have built up a portfolio of businesses
:04:07. > :04:10.and they are expanding. In making the Spyker sports car, there is big
:04:10. > :04:15.overseas opportunities there for growth potential. The what does it
:04:15. > :04:20.mean for Coventry and the motor industry? Symbolically it is hugely
:04:20. > :04:25.important. It also shows that there is a great skilled engineering
:04:25. > :04:30.based in Coventry and a lot of Nis producers in things like low carbon
:04:30. > :04:35.vehicles. A small scale renaissance. The thing we will be able to call
:04:35. > :04:41.it the Motor City again? A niche producer in the future. It is it is
:04:41. > :04:45.all good news. Meanwhile, the annual motoring fast
:04:45. > :04:48.one is moving to Stoneleigh Park. A celebration of British car-making
:04:48. > :04:52.was cancelled this year for the first time but next year's's
:04:52. > :04:56.festival will be at the former Royal Showground. The we will be
:04:56. > :04:59.linking up with universities and colleges in Coventry and
:04:59. > :05:03.Warwickshire are so they can show off their developments. That does
:05:03. > :05:07.the same for automotive companies in Coventry and Warwickshire, of
:05:07. > :05:13.which there are many, they can show off their latest of elements.
:05:13. > :05:18.ahead, we may be into September, but there's still a chance to catch
:05:19. > :05:23.a summer music festival this weekend. Details later.
:05:23. > :05:27.A controversial drama about the Gloucester serial killer Fred West
:05:27. > :05:30.is to be screened this weekend. It is called "Appropriate Adult"
:05:30. > :05:37.and it tells the story of the relationship between Fred West and
:05:37. > :05:43.a housewife who was asked to sit with him during police interviews.
:05:43. > :05:47.I love Rose and I love... But Anna was the one. "Appropriate Adult",
:05:47. > :05:51.Fred West is played on the screen with unnerving realism by Dominic
:05:51. > :05:55.West. The drama explores how the mass murderer manipulated this
:05:55. > :06:01.woman, Janet Leach, who sat in on police interviews but crucially
:06:01. > :06:10.West told her things he would not tell detectives. She called me to
:06:10. > :06:16.warn me. When I got home, we have five minutes together and we agreed
:06:16. > :06:19.we would tell them it was all me. With the case nearly 20 years old,
:06:19. > :06:23.Fred West's daughter has reportedly criticised the producers for making
:06:23. > :06:27.the drama but it is a decision they defend. That is something that we
:06:27. > :06:31.have registered very strongly but the thing is that if you say that
:06:31. > :06:36.you can never discuss any difficult subject because somebody directly
:06:36. > :06:40.affected does not want you to, that could mean, for example, we do not
:06:40. > :06:44.discuss the Holocaust or the Vietnam war the Second World War
:06:44. > :06:48.where as we know atrocious things happened. The worst case is of
:06:48. > :06:51.course the story that will never go away. Hilary Allison was the press
:06:51. > :06:55.officer for the police at the time and says there is a place for
:06:55. > :07:00.dramas like this. Lots of aspects of the investigation have been
:07:00. > :07:05.looked at and used elsewhere. It is really important that other aspects
:07:05. > :07:09.of the inquiry, including the role of Janet Leach should be looked
:07:09. > :07:14.back. As long as it is treated sensitively, it is a positive thing
:07:15. > :07:18.to happen. This is the focal point of the West murders. The house was
:07:18. > :07:22.demolished soon after the investigation. It was a dark
:07:22. > :07:25.chapter in Gloucester's history but the hope is that as time has gone
:07:25. > :07:30.on the perception of the city has changed. We have achieved a lot
:07:30. > :07:35.since then. We have got plans for the future. It is a lot different
:07:35. > :07:39.than it was then. It is going to be even greater in the future. Janet
:07:39. > :07:43.Leach admits that she made mistakes in her dealings with Fred West and
:07:43. > :07:50.work with producers on "Appropriate Adult" to ensure the real story of
:07:50. > :07:53.the crucial relationship could finally be told.
:07:53. > :07:57.Fred West could never be tried for his crimes because he killed
:07:57. > :08:01.himself while on remand in prison in Birmingham. "Appropriate Adult"
:08:01. > :08:04.is being shown on ITV won on Sunday evening.
:08:04. > :08:08.A thousand people have signed a petition calling for better safety
:08:08. > :08:11.outside a school after the death of a 12-year-old who was knocked down
:08:11. > :08:19.by a bus. Since Courtney Holdcroft died in
:08:19. > :08:22.June, there has been a concerted campaign for a road crossing patrol.
:08:22. > :08:28.The bus-stop outside the Ormiston Sir Stanley Matthews Academy is
:08:28. > :08:32.quiet today. Once term starts, it will be thronging. This is where
:08:32. > :08:36.12-year-old Courtney Holdcroft died. She was crossing the road after a
:08:36. > :08:40.school concert practice. 1000 people have called on the local
:08:40. > :08:44.council to make this road safer for children. This petition sadly was
:08:44. > :08:47.raised by the death of Courtney but it is not just about that, it is
:08:47. > :08:51.about the future of the children who come to the school and to make
:08:51. > :08:54.sure that we never used another child on this road. Following her
:08:54. > :09:00.death in June, there were many tributes laid outside the school
:09:00. > :09:05.and her family spoke of their loss. She was so confident. Everything
:09:05. > :09:09.that I could ever dream of. She wanted something, she would do it.
:09:09. > :09:15.If I could swap places with her, I would give anything to, anything at
:09:15. > :09:22.all. A new academy has been built here and as the school at -- school
:09:22. > :09:26.prepares for the beginning of term, there is much wilful improve road
:09:26. > :09:30.safety. A you cannot put a price on the life of a child. Anything that
:09:30. > :09:34.we can do around schools, that would be a great way of making sure
:09:34. > :09:38.that we can protect other children in the future. Moving the bus-stops
:09:38. > :09:43.is one option under consideration. Campaigners would also like to see
:09:43. > :09:47.a crossing installed. This road safety petition will be presented
:09:47. > :09:53.to Stoke City councillors when they meet next week. The hope is that
:09:53. > :09:59.the weight of public support will lead to changes.
:09:59. > :10:03.Other news, you pay online retailer Amazon is expecting a flood of job
:10:03. > :10:08.seekers after inviting applications for 900 posts at its new
:10:08. > :10:11.Staffordshire distribution centre. The company is moving in to raise
:10:11. > :10:15.700,000 square foot warehouse in Rugeley. The building has been
:10:15. > :10:20.empty for two years. There is a rethink on a decision to
:10:20. > :10:26.cut services for deaf children in Stoke-on-Trent. It comes after a
:10:26. > :10:30.National Deaf Children's charity took court action accusing the city
:10:30. > :10:36.council of being back less. Only three teachers would have been left
:10:36. > :10:39.for a 200 deaf children in the city. Back to lessons next week and for
:10:39. > :10:40.pupils at a school devastated by fire earlier this year, the new
:10:41. > :10:45.term brings something quite different.
:10:45. > :10:52.They are moving into part of a stately home which has brought a
:10:52. > :10:56.touch of class into the classrooms. Welcome, and interesting 18th
:10:57. > :11:00.century mansion just a couple of miles from Birmingham city centre.
:11:00. > :11:06.One-time home to injured soldiers in the First World War, it has also
:11:06. > :11:10.been home to a group of nuns. Now it is home to 360 schoolchildren. A
:11:10. > :11:17.devastating fire last April which caused �1.8 million worth of damage
:11:17. > :11:21.was the catalyst to them ending up here. The city council has paid
:11:21. > :11:25.�50,000 for alterations over the summer. We have got storage rooms
:11:25. > :11:29.which is something that we did not have before and we have got
:11:29. > :11:33.adequate classroom space as well. We have had an improved playground
:11:33. > :11:38.area, a tarmac area which is now a sports court so we have got netball
:11:38. > :11:42.courts and football courts. We are very happy with the improvements.
:11:42. > :11:46.Even with a portable toilet block to one side, it is an inspirational
:11:46. > :11:52.place for the children to learn. They love the environment. They
:11:52. > :11:59.have actually rebranded the school to call it a Hogwarts. There is a
:11:59. > :12:03.beautiful wooden staircase here. They have even named the teachers
:12:03. > :12:08.characters from Harry Potter as well. Staff volunteered to come in
:12:08. > :12:11.today to help get everything ready for the new terms. It is -- it will
:12:11. > :12:16.be nice to see it full of happy children. It is interesting to see
:12:16. > :12:21.how well the school has adapted and fits into the building. This term
:12:21. > :12:31.at Hogwarts then, they hope to be back at their old school by next
:12:31. > :12:36.
:12:36. > :12:40.It is a lovely quiet corner. This is perhaps a pertinent
:12:40. > :12:44.question after last month's riots. Can music turn around the lives of
:12:44. > :12:49.young people? Children had been taking part in a programme in
:12:49. > :12:51.Birmingham which uses music to make them think about choices in their
:12:51. > :13:00.lives. They will work with teenagers who had been excluded
:13:00. > :13:04.from mainstream education. These boys have both been expelled
:13:04. > :13:09.from their mainstream schools. They are now pupils of Creating Higher
:13:09. > :13:14.Heights in Birmingham. It is a non- profit community organisation that
:13:14. > :13:18.provides an alternative education service using music. Meeting the
:13:18. > :13:22.wrong people on the street. I was kicked out of school. Them I got
:13:22. > :13:29.invited to come to Creating Higher Heights. I had been behaving much
:13:29. > :13:34.better and doing more staff with music. That is what I like to do.
:13:34. > :13:41.It gives me something to do. I like music, and if I did not have music
:13:41. > :13:47.I would be out stealing other stuff. But now the service is under threat.
:13:47. > :13:52.Unfortunately, on the two young people that we do have, it is not
:13:52. > :13:57.enough to sustain. These young people from mainstream schools have
:13:57. > :14:00.had their confidence boosted this summer. But during term-time, this
:14:00. > :14:06.service is one of 70 projects across Birmingham where pupils can
:14:06. > :14:09.be referred to if they are excluded from school. The city council says
:14:09. > :14:13.budgets in alternative education are not being squeezed, but it is a
:14:13. > :14:17.competitive industry. It is important to use music and sports
:14:17. > :14:22.as a place where young people can develop, if they do not have that
:14:22. > :14:25.they will be suppressed. And suppressed young people means
:14:25. > :14:30.writing young people. If you give them a place where they can grow,
:14:30. > :14:34.her career, they will become the founders of tomorrow's companies in
:14:34. > :14:37.arts and music. Although many of the students have talked about the
:14:37. > :14:47.benefits of the service, the reality is that is more pupils are
:14:47. > :14:47.
:14:47. > :14:52.not referred in the new academic year, this facility could close.
:14:52. > :14:56.We will have more on music a bit later.
:14:56. > :15:02.At the festival season draws to a close, I will be finding out how
:15:02. > :15:05.events like this manage to survive in such an overcrowded market.
:15:05. > :15:09.But what will the weather be like for people going to Festival? Ben
:15:09. > :15:13.Rich can tell us. It has been unbeatable start to
:15:13. > :15:17.September. There will be changes over the weekend, with some rain
:15:17. > :15:27.and it will be a bit cooler. You can join me for the details and a
:15:27. > :15:29.
:15:29. > :15:34.Sport now a. The big day is nearly here for fans of the Worcester
:15:34. > :15:41.Warriors, he returned to rugby's Premiership tomorrow. Nothing is
:15:41. > :15:43.being left to chance. The ground will be sparkling, and the players
:15:43. > :15:53.had been giving their all in preparation for life back in the
:15:53. > :15:58.Premiership. It is a World Cup here, so some of these big teams have
:15:58. > :16:01.their stars missing, so it is a great opportunity. To come up in
:16:01. > :16:11.the World Cup here is the best -- the best pop bridge --
:16:11. > :16:15.opportunities. Good luck to the Warriors. There will be full
:16:15. > :16:19.commentary on BBC Hereford and Worcester tomorrow from 3pm.
:16:19. > :16:22.If you are a football fan you may be as a loose end this weekend,
:16:22. > :16:26.with so many players are away on international duty there are no
:16:26. > :16:31.games in the Premier League for the championship. But there is life
:16:31. > :16:38.beyond the top two divisions. Tomorrow has been designated a non-
:16:38. > :16:45.League day. Friday's fun day here. It is time
:16:45. > :16:48.to unwind before it Saturday's big game. Everything has been decided
:16:48. > :16:53.the day before by the boss, Steve Bauer. It is good to see him
:16:53. > :16:56.smiling again. That Harriers might not have much money, but at least
:16:56. > :17:01.the club is alive and kicking in the Blue Square Premier are. The
:17:01. > :17:05.last time we met, in February, Kidderminster were on the brink of
:17:05. > :17:10.administration. But the fans rallied round, disaster was averted,
:17:10. > :17:15.and now with six games gone, they are third in the table. Was there a
:17:15. > :17:19.point when you feared the worst? was pretty grim, I must admit,
:17:19. > :17:29.round about Christmas time. But we got through that, and hopefully it
:17:29. > :17:29.
:17:30. > :17:34.is behind us now a. I was at Wrexham for 13 years. That is the
:17:34. > :17:39.only team I have ever played for up apart from this one. So it is a big
:17:39. > :17:42.game for me personally, but also for the team. Tomorrow has been
:17:43. > :17:46.dubbed non-League day, when clubs like Kidderminster take centre-
:17:46. > :17:51.stage and supporters of high profile teams can experience life
:17:51. > :17:58.at the low end of the football pyramid. Some of the teams are
:17:58. > :18:08.offering cut-price admission. Or you could win 100 pints in every
:18:08. > :18:08.
:18:08. > :18:12.raffle by supporting Romulus in their FA Cup tie. -- �100. For the
:18:12. > :18:16.Harriers, every day is non-League day. For everyone else, tomorrow is
:18:16. > :18:20.a great reminder that not every club on Planet Football is mega
:18:20. > :18:25.rich. He is good to see Kidderminster
:18:25. > :18:28.getting strong, after that tough time.
:18:28. > :18:33.Birmingham's Hannah England has received the silver medal -- medal
:18:33. > :18:36.she won yesterday. It was a proud moment for the former University of
:18:36. > :18:41.Birmingham student he was an unexpected medallist in the 1,500
:18:41. > :18:48.metres. And there was a personal best for Emma Jackson, in the semi-
:18:48. > :18:53.final of the 800 metres. But it was not enough to qualify for the final.
:18:54. > :18:59.Everywhere you look, there seems to be a festival. Book, -- books, art,
:18:59. > :19:05.film, dance, music. And it seems every taste is catered for, from
:19:05. > :19:09.superstar Rihanna to smaller events attracting just a few hundred. Ben
:19:09. > :19:14.Sidwell is live at the Moseley Folk Festival in Birmingham. Is there a
:19:14. > :19:19.danger that the market is becoming saturated?
:19:19. > :19:24.Your are right. If you look at the UK this year, more than 400
:19:24. > :19:28.festivals. That is a lot of festivals. And the West Midlands is
:19:28. > :19:33.one of the most popular areas. We have had more than 15 here in the
:19:33. > :19:36.last couple of months. But running your own festival is a huge
:19:36. > :19:42.financial risks. Despite that, they have been popping up across the
:19:42. > :19:49.Midlands in all shores of -- sorts of shapes and sizes.
:19:49. > :19:54.Glastonbury. Reading and Leeds. V Festival. And now, Snodfest. It
:19:54. > :19:58.seems everyone these days is putting on a music festival.
:19:58. > :20:03.have a local barrister who is in charge of security. We have a local
:20:03. > :20:06.solicitor who is in charge of stage management. The picturesque village
:20:06. > :20:10.of Upton Snodsbury does not seem the sort of place where a music
:20:10. > :20:15.festival would be held. But for the past four years, villagers have
:20:15. > :20:20.come together to hold a one-day festival which attracted over 1000
:20:20. > :20:23.people last year. What is more amazing, it costs just �8,000 to
:20:23. > :20:28.put on and any profit goes towards giving their local park and
:20:28. > :20:32.playground open. The reason it does not cost that much compared to the
:20:32. > :20:40.other festivals is that it is based on a huge amount of goodwill. Not
:20:40. > :20:46.just from the people who help, but also from the bans. We have 19 bans
:20:46. > :20:50.this year, and they are all playing for nothing. Moseley Folk Festival
:20:50. > :20:54.in Birmingham is now in its 6th year, attracting 2000 people per
:20:54. > :20:58.day to the three day event. But with so many festivals to choose
:20:58. > :21:07.from, and many of them not pulling the crowds, why do festival-goers
:21:07. > :21:14.choose this one? It has a nice atmosphere. With this one, you can
:21:14. > :21:19.can down and so that the vibe. he wants to go for more than one,
:21:19. > :21:24.especially for three days. It is worth it. Over in Tamworth, they
:21:24. > :21:29.are making for -- final preparations for a new festival,
:21:29. > :21:34.Ultrasound. With Tiny Tempah and Madness investing, organisers have
:21:34. > :21:37.had to invest big money to make it a success. We are conscious of the
:21:37. > :21:41.situation in the market, and with some festivals that have not
:21:41. > :21:46.managed to sustain themselves. But from what we have looked at, a lot
:21:46. > :21:48.of them were small events that will make a jump on the bandwagon. And
:21:48. > :21:53.they have overstretched themselves this year, and they have suffered
:21:54. > :21:57.because of it. All three festivals intends to be back next year. The
:21:57. > :22:03.chances are by then, there will be even more competing for the same
:22:03. > :22:10.audience. As you can see behind me, lots of people already enjoying
:22:10. > :22:15.Moseley Folk Festival. We have said festivals are a massive financial
:22:15. > :22:19.risk. How do people managed to put so many on across the country?
:22:19. > :22:24.it has become quite trendy at the moment for everyone to put
:22:24. > :22:27.festivals on. But the main thing for us, it is their 6th year now,
:22:27. > :22:32.it is steady growth every year, taking it easy and not trying to
:22:32. > :22:35.jump through a gap. I think a lot of people tried to make a massive
:22:35. > :22:40.success straight away. The key thing for us is that we have a
:22:40. > :22:44.diverse line-up. And I think compared the other festivals,
:22:44. > :22:48.sometimes it is the same bands playing and it is quite as generic.
:22:49. > :22:52.Do you think of festival like this, it has its own audience, is that
:22:52. > :22:56.what it is about? Is you will survive you have to be slightly
:22:56. > :23:00.different? Yes, I think the line-up is the main things. That has
:23:00. > :23:06.attracted the ball straight away. And the main thing is the venue
:23:06. > :23:11.itself. We are up in Birmingham city centre but we could be in the
:23:11. > :23:18.middle of a forest, that is one of our main attractions. We were at V
:23:18. > :23:27.Festival St weeks ago, the one act of �1 million for 90 minutes. Most
:23:27. > :23:33.people cannot compete with that. Obviously the garage bands that as
:23:33. > :23:38.a bad Budget. We know our limits now it's. And we know if we sell
:23:38. > :23:42.out, what we can afford. And we just have to budget around that.
:23:42. > :23:45.Hopefully we will be here for the next 10 to 15 years or even longer
:23:45. > :23:51.have all stopped any advice for someone who is thinking of setting
:23:51. > :23:55.up a Festival? Taking the easy. I think that festivals have a
:23:55. > :24:00.successful first year and break even, and then they tried to grow
:24:00. > :24:07.too quickly. I would say take your time. They are sold out tomorrow.
:24:07. > :24:11.And a lot of people are coming down here. So I am sure anyone else who
:24:11. > :24:15.wants to start a festival in the Midlands will have success as well.

:24:41. > :24:45.clouded over quite a lot in the last half-hour or so. But that has
:24:45. > :24:49.not stopped people coming out and enjoying what feels like a summer
:24:49. > :24:53.evening. It feels a lot more like summer than it did at the end of
:24:53. > :24:57.August. Let me take you back to Bank Holiday Monday, temperatures
:24:57. > :25:02.in some parts of our region only reached 11 degrees Celsius.
:25:02. > :25:06.Elsewhere, only into the mid-teens. Today we have had it a good --
:25:07. > :25:10.added a good eight degrees to that. Can it last into the weekend? It
:25:10. > :25:14.looks as though it will be a warm start to the weekend, but things
:25:14. > :25:18.will cool down as we go through, and there will be some rain
:25:18. > :25:22.particularly on Saturday night. You can see there is a lot of cloud out
:25:22. > :25:27.to the West. It is circulating around an area of low pressure, and
:25:27. > :25:32.some of it has already started to move in. It will continue to stream
:25:32. > :25:37.its way in throughout the evening. Quite low and thick cloud, it could
:25:37. > :25:41.thing -- 10 things misty. But it will be mild, temperatures no lower
:25:41. > :25:46.than 12 to 14 degrees Celsius. Tomorrow morning, there will be a
:25:46. > :25:51.lot of cloud around at the start of the day. But it should be in and
:25:51. > :25:55.break through the day. Particularly, the further east you are. In the
:25:55. > :25:57.afternoon, more a thick cloud working its way into the West. Some
:25:57. > :26:03.rain for Shropshire and Staffordshire by the end of the
:26:03. > :26:07.days. But still warm. Temperatures up to 23 degrees Celsius. Tomorrow
:26:07. > :26:11.night, that weather fronts slits eastwards across the region, that
:26:11. > :26:16.will bring wet-weather for all of us. It should Clear slowly through
:26:16. > :26:21.Sunday, some doubts about how quickly that will happen. But much
:26:21. > :26:26.cooler by then as well, highs of 19 or 20 degrees Celsius. Next week,
:26:26. > :26:31.things look quite unsettled and changeable. Windy with showers on
:26:31. > :26:34.Monday, heavy showers on Tuesday, as temperatures well down. A
:26:34. > :26:42.changeable out look, but at least over the weekend the weather should
