The headlines tonight: news teams where you are. | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
Controversy after a man disrupts Morris dancers with painted faces, | :00:00. | :00:09. | |
Even in the 21st-century, can't we all dance together? | :00:10. | :00:16. | |
Can't we all get on together and respect everybody's traditions? | :00:17. | :00:19. | |
An ancient tradition that needs explaining, | :00:20. | :00:21. | |
An inquest finds a 10-year-old boy from Hereford hung | :00:22. | :00:28. | |
200 rare posters from the Golden Age of cinema - | :00:29. | :00:35. | |
up for auction right here in the Midlands. | :00:36. | :00:39. | |
So close, and yet so far - Non-league Stourbridge head out | :00:40. | :00:42. | |
of the FA-Cup after defeat to Wycombe Wanderers | :00:43. | :00:45. | |
Proud of the way the boys played, and, as you have seen, | :00:46. | :00:49. | |
And it's a week of two halves - mild to begin with but cold | :00:50. | :00:58. | |
and windy from midweek onwards, bringing the chance of some snow, | :00:59. | :01:01. | |
I'll have full details in the forecast later. | :01:02. | :01:14. | |
A group of Morris dancers were forced to abandon a performance | :01:15. | :01:19. | |
in the centre of Birmingham this weekend after being | :01:20. | :01:21. | |
Several of the troop from Worcestershire, | :01:22. | :01:26. | |
had blackened their faces, in line with some Morris dancing traditions. | :01:27. | :01:29. | |
But a number of onlookers took exception and disrupted the dance. | :01:30. | :01:32. | |
One posted a video on the internet, but the Morris dancers say | :01:33. | :01:35. | |
the practise dates back centuries, and is not linked to race. | :01:36. | :01:39. | |
It was supposed to be thoroughly Haydn Leiva and dust dose Tesche | :01:40. | :01:54. | |
traditional Morris dance to entertain shoppers and celebrate the | :01:55. | :02:01. | |
start of the agricultural year. Is this not racist? | :02:02. | :02:08. | |
No, it's not. That was the idea, anyway. But at | :02:09. | :02:12. | |
the Birmingham Bullring, a young, dark skinned man interrupted the | :02:13. | :02:16. | |
group. Some of them had blackened their faces. He angrily and | :02:17. | :02:21. | |
repeatedly called them racist. This is a form of racism. | :02:22. | :02:25. | |
According to one account, hats were not from heads, and abuse was | :02:26. | :02:29. | |
Harold. Do not think you will not hurt | :02:30. | :02:32. | |
someone's feelings! The dancers received such abuse, | :02:33. | :02:39. | |
they decided to abandon their performance. I have spoken to the | :02:40. | :02:43. | |
treasurer of the group, they are still deciding whether to comment | :02:44. | :02:47. | |
publicly. I'm told one of the members were so upset by the | :02:48. | :02:50. | |
experience coming he considered reporting it to the police. At the | :02:51. | :02:55. | |
Bullring today, it is not hard to find others who agreed with the | :02:56. | :02:58. | |
racism claim. Never seen a Morris dancers were | :02:59. | :03:03. | |
black face before. And why now? I would think, if ice other now, why | :03:04. | :03:08. | |
now? That is racist. It's nonsense. They're just having | :03:09. | :03:14. | |
fun. It's our tradition. If people | :03:15. | :03:19. | |
bothered to look into why they've got their faces blacked up, it's | :03:20. | :03:25. | |
nothing to do with race. We're model control society, we don't do that. | :03:26. | :03:30. | |
It's not something that should have have done, and I don't know who gave | :03:31. | :03:33. | |
them license to do that in a cosmopolitan city like Birmingham. | :03:34. | :03:39. | |
Shropshire-based Mike Rust has been a Morris dancer for nearly 30 years. | :03:40. | :03:45. | |
He says the practice of backing up data on the 17th century, when they | :03:46. | :03:49. | |
dance was banned, and the dancers sought to hide their identities. | :03:50. | :03:55. | |
It come from the rural parts of the Midlands, Herefordshire, Shropshire | :03:56. | :04:00. | |
and a bit of Worcester. Multicultural Birmingham seems to be | :04:01. | :04:03. | |
in a little dome of itself, and what happens there is separate what | :04:04. | :04:09. | |
happens out here. We have been unable to contact the | :04:10. | :04:14. | |
young man who confronted the dancers. The police say they are | :04:15. | :04:17. | |
aware of the incident and are reviewing information research, but | :04:18. | :04:20. | |
have not started a formal investigation. | :04:21. | :04:22. | |
The Health Secretary says he's more concerned | :04:23. | :04:24. | |
about the Worcestershire Royal, than any other hospital | :04:25. | :04:26. | |
Jeremy Hunt's comments come after the deaths of two patients, | :04:27. | :04:29. | |
who were waiting in corridors in A and another who was found dead | :04:30. | :04:33. | |
Speaking in the House of Commons this afternoon, | :04:34. | :04:37. | |
the Health Secretary said the problem of patients waiting | :04:38. | :04:39. | |
on trolleys was mainly down to two West Midlands hospitals. | :04:40. | :04:47. | |
The most recent statistics show that nearly three quarters of trolley | :04:48. | :04:50. | |
In Worcestershire in particular, there have been a number | :04:51. | :04:53. | |
of unacceptably long trolley waits, and in the media, two reported | :04:54. | :04:56. | |
We're also aware of ongoing problems in north Midlands, | :04:57. | :05:03. | |
with extremely high numbers of 12-hour trolley waits. | :05:04. | :05:09. | |
In response, the Shadow Health Secretary, Jonathan Ashworth, | :05:10. | :05:11. | |
asked Mr Hunt if the Government would take action over the deaths. | :05:12. | :05:15. | |
One of the most upsetting reports to come out of hospitals last week | :05:16. | :05:18. | |
was the death of two patients at Worcestershire Royal who had | :05:19. | :05:20. | |
Can I ask the Secretary of State if he will commit to personally lead | :05:21. | :05:26. | |
Well, in our Westminster studio is the MP for Redditch, | :05:27. | :05:35. | |
Karen Lumley, who earlier this afternoon held an urgent meeting | :05:36. | :05:38. | |
with the Health Secretary to talk about the problems | :05:39. | :05:40. | |
at the Worcestershire Acute Hospitals NHS Trust. | :05:41. | :05:42. | |
First of all, where you happy with what Mr Hunt had to say? | :05:43. | :05:47. | |
We talked about the situation that has been ongoing in both the | :05:48. | :05:52. | |
Worcester royal and Alexandra Hospital over the last few weeks. | :05:53. | :05:57. | |
And what the Health Secretary could do to alleviate some of those | :05:58. | :06:01. | |
problems. More importantly, what he could do to make sure this doesn't | :06:02. | :06:06. | |
happen again. I'm very keen that we put a bit in the expanded capacity | :06:07. | :06:10. | |
at both hospitals. I want him to look at that bid very seriously. I | :06:11. | :06:15. | |
was in that debate this afternoon, and I specifically asked him about | :06:16. | :06:19. | |
that. He said he would lick sympathetically on that bid. | :06:20. | :06:24. | |
With the idea of expansion in mind at the moment is, the Alex in | :06:25. | :06:28. | |
Redditch is looking at having its A downgraded, is this not an | :06:29. | :06:33. | |
opportunity to say to the Health Secretary, we need that A | :06:34. | :06:38. | |
apartment? We have a department... | :06:39. | :06:42. | |
It's being downgraded? 85 % of people can go to that A I | :06:43. | :06:49. | |
was there talking to the staff, making sure they were OK. We owe | :06:50. | :06:54. | |
those staff a great deal of our gratitude. In that debate this | :06:55. | :07:01. | |
afternoon, there was over 100 members of Parliament, across the | :07:02. | :07:06. | |
country, who have stories to tell that - | :07:07. | :07:09. | |
not as bad as ours - but tale of difficult times ahead. | :07:10. | :07:16. | |
Staffer under very huge pressure, did he give you any assurances about | :07:17. | :07:19. | |
additional staff, support, more funding? | :07:20. | :07:24. | |
There were assurances that they are putting additional support in now. | :07:25. | :07:29. | |
They are also opening another ward to alleviate some of these problems. | :07:30. | :07:35. | |
As I said to you, in the short term, that is what is needed. In the | :07:36. | :07:38. | |
longer term, we need to make sure that this doesn't happen again next | :07:39. | :07:43. | |
year, and that we have these plans in place that make sure our | :07:44. | :07:48. | |
hospitals are equipped to deliver what we should be delivering for our | :07:49. | :07:53. | |
residents. I don't want to have to be looking at that again. My | :07:54. | :07:56. | |
condolences go out to those families today who have lost relatives. | :07:57. | :08:05. | |
Thank you very much. In a statement, the trust told us as they are | :08:06. | :08:09. | |
currently holding internal reviews into all three of those deaths, and | :08:10. | :08:13. | |
how they are completed, they cannot comment borough. They say they are | :08:14. | :08:18. | |
working hard to reduce the times that patients are waiting on | :08:19. | :08:22. | |
trolleys, but they accept that some are waiting longer than the like, | :08:23. | :08:24. | |
and they apologise for that. A coroner has recorded | :08:25. | :08:27. | |
a verdict of accidental death after a 10-year-old boy | :08:28. | :08:29. | |
from Hereford was found hanged It had been suggested that | :08:30. | :08:32. | |
Alfie Hyett had been taking part But the police told today's | :08:33. | :08:36. | |
inquest they could find no Alfie Hyett, described | :08:37. | :08:40. | |
by his teacher at today's inquest as a very | :08:41. | :08:51. | |
happy ten-year-old. Yet, last March his mother Louise | :08:52. | :08:55. | |
found him hanged by a school scarf on his | :08:56. | :08:58. | |
bedroom door handle. He could not be revived | :08:59. | :09:03. | |
and was pronounced dead at hospital. This is Alfie's room, | :09:04. | :09:07. | |
as you can tell, very, very tidy. In the summer, Alfie's mum | :09:08. | :09:10. | |
Louise told Midlands Today she was convinced her son had been | :09:11. | :09:16. | |
taking part in a web craze, a so-called choking game - | :09:17. | :09:20. | |
starving the brain of oxygen cause Detective Sergeant Mark | :09:21. | :09:24. | |
Jinks from West Mercia Police told the inquest that he had | :09:25. | :09:30. | |
investigated suggestions that Alfie might have been taking part in some | :09:31. | :09:34. | |
sort of choking game when he died. The youngster's Xbox and laptop | :09:35. | :09:40. | |
were examined but there was no evidence to suggest he had been | :09:41. | :09:43. | |
researching the game. Several classmates were | :09:44. | :09:47. | |
also interviewed but there was no suggestion | :09:48. | :09:51. | |
that the choking game had been a talking point before | :09:52. | :09:53. | |
Alfie's death. Alfie's family did not | :09:54. | :10:03. | |
want to talk to camera convinced her son | :10:04. | :10:05. | |
was playing a game. The coroner said he was satisfied | :10:06. | :10:08. | |
Alfie had tied the scarf around his neck but not satisfied | :10:09. | :10:12. | |
he intended to take his life. Recording of verdict of accidental | :10:13. | :10:15. | |
death, he said he believed this was an accident of childish | :10:16. | :10:20. | |
curiosity or experimentation. Two people died in a burning car | :10:21. | :10:29. | |
after a crash that shut part of the M6 in Warwickshire | :10:30. | :10:33. | |
in the early hours of this morning. Their vehicle hit a barrier | :10:34. | :10:37. | |
on the motorway near Corley Services A man and a woman were | :10:38. | :10:40. | |
confirmed dead at the scene. The road was closed for several | :10:41. | :10:45. | |
hours causing lengthy hold-ups on many surrounding roads | :10:46. | :10:48. | |
during the morning rush hour. Rail passengers in Gloucestershire | :10:49. | :10:52. | |
faced long delays today after a boulder fell onto a railway | :10:53. | :10:55. | |
line during a landslip. The mass of rock tumbled | :10:56. | :10:59. | |
onto the line near Chalford. Engineers have spent the day | :11:00. | :11:02. | |
breaking it up into smaller pieces, but Network Rail says the line may | :11:03. | :11:05. | |
not reopen before the morning. This is an area of known | :11:06. | :11:10. | |
disturbance, and we have had some minor falls from time to time, | :11:11. | :11:13. | |
which is why netting is there, to help the cutting | :11:14. | :11:16. | |
wall stay in place. It was not designed | :11:17. | :11:19. | |
to cope with anything of the size that we saw fall | :11:20. | :11:21. | |
onto the track today. So that's one of the questions | :11:22. | :11:24. | |
were going to have to ask ourselves about the geological knowledge | :11:25. | :11:27. | |
we have that particular cutting - do we urgently need to update that | :11:28. | :11:32. | |
and put some resilient The Reverend Georgina Byrne, | :11:33. | :11:37. | |
a Canon at Worcester Cathedral, has been appointed to serve | :11:38. | :11:41. | |
as a chaplain to the Queen. She'll become one of just 34 members | :11:42. | :11:44. | |
of the clergy to take up Chaplains to the Queen preach | :11:45. | :11:47. | |
occasionally in the Chapel Royal A planned trial using a former | :11:48. | :11:52. | |
London Underground train, to run between Nuneaton | :11:53. | :11:59. | |
and Coventry, has been scrapped. It follows a fire on board | :12:00. | :12:02. | |
the Vivarail two weeks ago. The train was to have | :12:03. | :12:06. | |
stopped at the Ricoh Arena Our transport correspondent | :12:07. | :12:08. | |
Peter Plisner is at Coventry Peter, how much of blow | :12:09. | :12:12. | |
is this decision? The biggest blow is for passengers, | :12:13. | :12:25. | |
because this train was due to relieve overcrowding on that line. | :12:26. | :12:30. | |
This is the trainer currently runs on it, pretty noisy as well. There | :12:31. | :12:36. | |
is a national shortage in the UK of diesel trains at the moment. It's a | :12:37. | :12:42. | |
blow to Vivarail, the Warwickshire-based company. Their | :12:43. | :12:46. | |
test train caught fire on December 30. They had been due to start a | :12:47. | :12:52. | |
trial in February. A partnership of councils, including the West | :12:53. | :12:56. | |
Midlands Combined Authority and London Midland have effectively | :12:57. | :12:59. | |
pulled the plug. With me from London Midland is Francis Thomas, why have | :13:00. | :13:06. | |
they made that decision? Vivarail tell as their programme | :13:07. | :13:09. | |
goes back three months, that means we do not have time to run the | :13:10. | :13:13. | |
programme before the change of franchise in the summer. | :13:14. | :13:17. | |
Regrettably, we have had to stop the programme now. | :13:18. | :13:19. | |
How much difference with the strains have made? | :13:20. | :13:23. | |
There is a national shortage of diesel trains. Nobody else is | :13:24. | :13:28. | |
building them. We are seeing demand growing all the time for trains in | :13:29. | :13:32. | |
the West Midlands. On this line, we only have one carriage per hour on a | :13:33. | :13:35. | |
route that has seen two new stations open in the last 18 months. | :13:36. | :13:41. | |
My kind you find any other diesel trains? | :13:42. | :13:44. | |
Every train company in the country is playing the same game, chasing | :13:45. | :13:47. | |
those diesel trains as they become available. We're already looking for | :13:48. | :13:52. | |
one to run from here to Leamington, there is big demand for diesel | :13:53. | :13:55. | |
trains, and affords a no-one is making them. So they class 230 could | :13:56. | :14:04. | |
be the solution in the future. Vivarail told us night they are | :14:05. | :14:11. | |
investigating the cause of the fire, but their London Underground trains | :14:12. | :14:12. | |
are still being converted. Thanks for joining us | :14:13. | :14:14. | |
on Midlands Today, this Controversy after a troop of Morris | :14:15. | :14:16. | |
dancers with painted faces Your detailed weather | :14:17. | :14:21. | |
forecast to come shortly. Ashley Giles back at Edgbaston, | :14:22. | :14:26. | |
but this time it's not Don't get mad, get even - | :14:27. | :14:31. | |
The mystery woman from Warwick who paid for posters to get back | :14:32. | :14:37. | |
at her cheating partner. A rare collection of more | :14:38. | :14:49. | |
than 200 classic Hollywood film posters is being auctioned | :14:50. | :14:52. | |
in the the Midlands this week. The collection, which is expected | :14:53. | :14:56. | |
to raise thousands of pounds, was amassed by a man from Dudley | :14:57. | :14:59. | |
when he worked in RAF Cinema. The 1950s and 60s were | :15:00. | :15:03. | |
a golden age in cinema. Promotional posters | :15:04. | :15:16. | |
capturing the classics. Now, more than 200 collected | :15:17. | :15:21. | |
by Dudley man Brian O'Connor Brian was in the RAF, | :15:22. | :15:26. | |
and worked in their cinemas, saving each poster from the skip | :15:27. | :15:31. | |
and consolidating a shildhood Saturday morning | :15:32. | :15:38. | |
pictures, loved them. I have his pass from | :15:39. | :15:40. | |
when he was small. And his love continued | :15:41. | :15:44. | |
right until he died. The auction's being held | :15:45. | :15:50. | |
in Dudley on Friday, and they could fetch up to tens | :15:51. | :15:53. | |
of thousands with this War Of The World poster thought | :15:54. | :15:57. | |
to be the most valuable. We saw one sell in America, a film | :15:58. | :16:00. | |
poster for The War Of The Worlds, This particular film | :16:01. | :16:05. | |
poster, this British one, Not only are there posters | :16:06. | :16:08. | |
about the classics, but also some of the B-movies, | :16:09. | :16:23. | |
like here The Blob, this film was about a huge lump of slime | :16:24. | :16:26. | |
they kept growing and engulfing neighbourhoods | :16:27. | :16:31. | |
somewhere in the states. In fact, you could say | :16:32. | :16:33. | |
it was so bad it was good. And, to be honest, if I think | :16:34. | :16:37. | |
about it too much, I want to cry. Brian's family now live in Kent, | :16:38. | :16:46. | |
but they're keeping his four most favoured posters, | :16:47. | :16:57. | |
along with hundreds of photos It's time for the sport, and Dan is | :16:58. | :17:17. | |
here. It was a case of close but not quite. Rich? | :17:18. | :17:20. | |
Yes, if only Tom Tonks' late strike hadn't bounced off the crossbar, | :17:21. | :17:23. | |
then Stourbridge could have been looking forward to a replay, | :17:24. | :17:26. | |
and a place in tonight's fourth round draw. | :17:27. | :17:27. | |
Instead, they bowed out of the FA Cup with their heads held high. | :17:28. | :17:31. | |
More than 2000 fans made the trip from the Black Country, | :17:32. | :17:33. | |
and Ian Winter travelled with the Stourbridge team to Wycombe. | :17:34. | :17:36. | |
They've never made a journey like this since the club | :17:37. | :17:39. | |
They were determined to enjoy every minute. | :17:40. | :17:43. | |
Overnight stay in a four-star hotel, a luxury coach, and a moment | :17:44. | :17:51. | |
of quiet reflection on their way to the biggest game of their lives. | :17:52. | :17:56. | |
Clearly, this Stourbridge lads weren't suffering | :17:57. | :17:58. | |
We know it's going to be very tough, we know it'll be one of the shocks | :17:59. | :18:07. | |
But we have prepared as well as we can. | :18:08. | :18:12. | |
As I say, if we get beat by a better side on the day, so be it. | :18:13. | :18:16. | |
Just before we get there, I want to wish all the lads good luck! | :18:17. | :18:23. | |
It's 40 years now since a team from the Northern Premier League | :18:24. | :18:26. | |
last reached the fourth round of the FA Cup, | :18:27. | :18:28. | |
so now is the moment for Stourbridge to make FA Cup history. | :18:29. | :18:31. | |
And waiting for them outside the Wycombe ground, | :18:32. | :18:34. | |
Lucky hats, silly suits, and optimistic betting slips. | :18:35. | :18:38. | |
More than 2000 had made the trip from the Black Country. | :18:39. | :18:42. | |
# We are Stourbridge, we are Stourbridge!# | :18:43. | :18:45. | |
Stourbridge fell behind soon after the break, | :18:46. | :18:47. | |
Dan Scarr, man of the match, levelled the score at 1-1, | :18:48. | :18:53. | |
It might even had been a victory, if only Tom Tonks' effort had | :18:54. | :18:58. | |
But seven minutes from time, the unmistakable figure of Akinfenwa | :18:59. | :19:04. | |
popped in the winner to break Stourbridge hearts. | :19:05. | :19:08. | |
I am so disappointed that it's ended in the way it has. | :19:09. | :19:11. | |
But as I said, I'm proud of the way the boys played. | :19:12. | :19:14. | |
And as you have seen, the support today was breathtaking. | :19:15. | :19:17. | |
Very fine margins in football, and unfortunately, we've lost | :19:18. | :19:24. | |
Well done, Gary, you've done the Black Country proud. | :19:25. | :19:29. | |
It's certainly been an FA Cup journey the Glass Boys | :19:30. | :19:33. | |
Such a shame for a stammer rage. But not a great weekend for any of our | :19:34. | :19:51. | |
teams? A great result for will steam from the championship, they beat | :19:52. | :19:57. | |
Stoke City 2-0. The only other team from her area still involved in the | :19:58. | :20:05. | |
FA Cup is Birmingham city, they drew 1-1, Lukas Jutkiewicz with the | :20:06. | :20:10. | |
equaliser. We have another cup draw taking | :20:11. | :20:12. | |
place today? The women's FA Cup draw took place | :20:13. | :20:19. | |
at Perry Barr, two pupils did the draw, Sana Kazi and Leya Hussain. | :20:20. | :20:26. | |
Aston Villa, commentary are all at home in round three. | :20:27. | :20:33. | |
In rugby, Wasps at the top, but oh, Wester! | :20:34. | :20:39. | |
Almost 28,000 people at the Ricoh Arena, they are now three points | :20:40. | :20:42. | |
clear at the top of the Premiership. On Saturday, Gloucester beat | :20:43. | :20:47. | |
Worcester, they scored seven tries, there are now eight, Worcester are | :20:48. | :20:50. | |
bottom but one. Cricket and Ashley Giles | :20:51. | :20:52. | |
says his new role at Warwickshire means he's taking a step back | :20:53. | :20:55. | |
from frontline coaching. Giles has won the County | :20:56. | :20:57. | |
Championship as both But he says that Jim Troughton will | :20:58. | :20:59. | |
be in charge of the first team. Ashley Giles has spent almost all | :21:00. | :21:08. | |
of his working life at Edgbaston, but he stressed this time | :21:09. | :21:13. | |
he is in a new role, The Academy, sports | :21:14. | :21:16. | |
science, recruitment. It's a lot of areas that | :21:17. | :21:25. | |
I have really not had It keeps me more in a suit than | :21:26. | :21:28. | |
a tracksuit for most of the year. A very different role, | :21:29. | :21:35. | |
but one I'm looking forward to. The team were back in training today | :21:36. | :21:38. | |
for the first time since Christmas, and now the direct | :21:39. | :21:42. | |
responsibility of Jim Troughton, It's going to be an organic process | :21:43. | :21:45. | |
in the first couple of weeks, we need to figure out whose | :21:46. | :21:52. | |
responsibilities are where. But I'm focusing on the cricket, | :21:53. | :21:54. | |
making sure I get in that indoor school and get the guys as prepared | :21:55. | :21:57. | |
as possible for our For Giles, this | :21:58. | :22:00. | |
is a real homecoming. He spent 14 seasons as a first-class | :22:01. | :22:03. | |
cricketer at Warwickshire, He was lured away by England before | :22:04. | :22:06. | |
a two-year spell at Lancashire, and the 43-year-old says a big | :22:07. | :22:12. | |
plus about the new job will be living at home | :22:13. | :22:16. | |
with his family in Worcestershire. That was a crucial | :22:17. | :22:19. | |
part of the decision. I was spending too many | :22:20. | :22:22. | |
days in a hotel room. It's an important time | :22:23. | :22:24. | |
in my children's development, none of us are getting any younger, | :22:25. | :22:31. | |
and before I know it, But he's been hired | :22:32. | :22:35. | |
to bring success. The Bears last won the County | :22:36. | :22:42. | |
Championship in 2012, with Giles as coach | :22:43. | :22:45. | |
and Troughton as captain. The pair are now reunited, | :22:46. | :22:49. | |
and they'll be hoping for Feels a long way away from sunshine | :22:50. | :23:03. | |
and champagne today. Certainly does at the moment! | :23:04. | :23:05. | |
If you live in Warwickshire then you may have spotted some of these | :23:06. | :23:08. | |
They were apparently paid for by a woman | :23:09. | :23:11. | |
revenge against her cheating partner "Graham". | :23:12. | :23:13. | |
Well, mystery continues to surround the identity of the couple, | :23:14. | :23:16. | |
with some claiming it could be a publicity stunt. | :23:17. | :23:19. | |
It was a simple but powerful sign - is scorned woman trying to publicly | :23:20. | :23:34. | |
shame her ex-by advertising his alleged in fidelity on lamp posts. | :23:35. | :23:40. | |
Around 50 of the signs appeared in Warwick, and have the town talking. | :23:41. | :23:45. | |
I think she feels humiliated by Graham, so she has he related him. I | :23:46. | :23:50. | |
don't think it's revenge. It's very boldly. | :23:51. | :23:56. | |
Do you think it is my it mean? No. | :23:57. | :24:01. | |
Yes. She's properly hanging him out to | :24:02. | :24:05. | |
dry. If he has been paying away from | :24:06. | :24:09. | |
home, he has only himself to blame. I think Linda should come in and | :24:10. | :24:14. | |
have a chat and a copy about Graham! With the images going viral on | :24:15. | :24:19. | |
social media, the poster company are refusing to comments, but had told | :24:20. | :24:23. | |
friends that Linda is a genuine customer, and this is not a PR | :24:24. | :24:29. | |
stunt. But hasn't it gone too far? Just be very careful what you say, I | :24:30. | :24:33. | |
don't think Linda made for it to be shared in America and be on the BBC, | :24:34. | :24:39. | |
but it's out there now for everyone to see. It's and anti-love story, | :24:40. | :24:43. | |
but it is so intriguing, who is she, why has he done this? Can we help | :24:44. | :24:50. | |
out? I think it's great. Through this entries, Warwick Castle | :24:51. | :24:53. | |
has seen a few acts of revenge, and this is nothing new to this town. On | :24:54. | :24:57. | |
the 14th century, prisoners will be held in a cell where sewage would be | :24:58. | :25:01. | |
poured upon them, and they would be left to die. Today, there's no sign | :25:02. | :25:08. | |
of grain here. The identities of both Graham and Linda remain a | :25:09. | :25:12. | |
mystery, although this bar owner claims he knows Linda's true | :25:13. | :25:16. | |
identity, and has even offered her a bottle of champagne. | :25:17. | :25:22. | |
All I know is who Linda is, I am not quick to say any more. If she wants | :25:23. | :25:26. | |
to lay low, I'm not going to change that. | :25:27. | :25:29. | |
There could be a final twist in this sad love story, flyposting is | :25:30. | :25:34. | |
illegal, and guilty parties could be fined. | :25:35. | :25:39. | |
Oh, Graham! There are rumours of snow, search Farley is here to give | :25:40. | :25:51. | |
us the forecast. Our cameraman, Joe, over there has confirmed some big | :25:52. | :25:54. | |
fat flakes of snow at Edgbaston earlier today. There could be more | :25:55. | :26:00. | |
substantial snow later this week, but lets concentrate on the | :26:01. | :26:04. | |
miserable conditions today. But this picture looks quite nice. We should | :26:05. | :26:12. | |
title this, And Then The Heavens Opened. This was the reality of this | :26:13. | :26:16. | |
situation once the rain got going, it was miserable, very wet. Just | :26:17. | :26:22. | |
three hours ago, this was the situation across Staffordshire, | :26:23. | :26:24. | |
things drying up with some breaks in the cloud. This is how the rest of | :26:25. | :26:29. | |
the week is shaping up. At the moment, it has been wet and cloudy, | :26:30. | :26:34. | |
by the time we get to midweek, the colder hair and windier conditions | :26:35. | :26:40. | |
start to move in. Those will be with us right until the end of the week. | :26:41. | :26:47. | |
At this stage, for the Midlands, just wintry showers, nothing to | :26:48. | :26:49. | |
substantial. This is what is bringing in the colder air, and | :26:50. | :26:56. | |
northwesterly breeze from the Arctic, that is what's going to | :26:57. | :27:01. | |
cover the entire country. That is going to bring in some substantial | :27:02. | :27:04. | |
snow to parts of the north of the country, Wales as well, and also the | :27:05. | :27:09. | |
East Midlands. That's weather warnings are. For us, it looks like | :27:10. | :27:14. | |
we have no snow at all for most areas, certainly at lower levels. | :27:15. | :27:18. | |
Actor this evening, write out there as a result of the rain earlier. | :27:19. | :27:24. | |
That is clearing to the southeast, and we're left with a few showery at | :27:25. | :27:30. | |
pix of rain, some drizzle and rain towards the north and north west. A | :27:31. | :27:34. | |
lot of that give Mr averages above freezing, Aranda four Celsius. | :27:35. | :27:39. | |
Tomorrow will be cloudy to begin with. Miles of tomorrow. | :27:40. | :27:43. | |
Mild! That was the Panorama investigates | :27:44. | :27:59. | |
the deadly terrorist attack and should British tourists | :28:00. | :28:02. | |
have been warned about the risks? but it's not always | :28:03. | :28:13. | |
the right thing for one person. we've run at almost | :28:14. | :28:14. | |
completely 100% capacity. We've got lots of patients | :28:15. | :28:19. | |
now competing. There's no beds. I do the right thing | :28:20. | :28:22. | |
all the time in this job, but it's not always | :28:23. | :28:27. | |
the right thing for one person. I do the right thing | :28:28. | :28:31. | |
for the hospital. Sometimes I stop | :28:32. | :28:33. | |
things happening, yeah. | :28:34. | :28:38. |
