:00:00. > :00:13.The hospital says they have to put a line somewhere.

:00:14. > :00:20.But Mike I am very frustrated and I am worried. I worried that they are

:00:21. > :00:26.good and leave me like this for a lot longer. TRANSLATION:

:00:29. > :00:35.And following the pleas at the clamp-down on people using their

:00:36. > :00:37.mobile phones whilst driving. The Liverpool player whose first

:00:38. > :00:38.appearance at Anfield Getting up close with the new

:00:39. > :00:47.generation of Northern Soul fans. And after a few very chilly days,

:00:48. > :00:50.finally a change is on the way, but although we'll see the back

:00:51. > :00:53.of the frosty scenes, Just some of the reaction

:00:54. > :01:11.to plans to restrict hip and knee replacements

:01:12. > :01:15.to those in severe pain. The proposal by three clinical

:01:16. > :01:17.commissioning groups in Worcestershire is aimed at saving

:01:18. > :01:21.around ?2 million a year. But critics say that remaining

:01:22. > :01:25.mobile is fundamental for people's Here's our health

:01:26. > :01:31.correspondent Michele Paduano. Severe arthritis makes a normal

:01:32. > :01:34.walking and agonising punishment 72-year-old Susan Morris believes

:01:35. > :01:39.the current waiting list is She had been trying for

:01:40. > :01:43.a new replacement for a year, and has been on the waiting

:01:44. > :01:45.list since September. Now she worries her wait

:01:46. > :01:47.will count against her. They just don't seem to understand

:01:48. > :01:51.exactly what the patients I would go anywhere, I said

:01:52. > :01:58.I would go anywhere to have this operation done, I don't

:01:59. > :02:01.even mind going up to Russell Hall or somewhere

:02:02. > :02:03.like that. In future, most hip

:02:04. > :02:11.and knee replacements in Worcestershire will be carried out

:02:12. > :02:14.at the Alexandra Hospital. There is a scoring

:02:15. > :02:17.system to qualify. Those paying for the

:02:18. > :02:19.operations have made The Royal College of

:02:20. > :02:22.surgeons say the arbitrary decision to restrict NHS care

:02:23. > :02:25.on the basis of pain The commission hopes to save money

:02:26. > :02:31.but says that ignores the potential impact of delayed

:02:32. > :02:36.treatment, prolonged pain and But with the ?9 million deficit,

:02:37. > :02:41.and more and more elderly needing more treatment,

:02:42. > :02:44.commissioners here say they are This sits in a very difficult place

:02:45. > :02:50.with the clinical I have responsibilities

:02:51. > :02:58.to my individual patients, but we've also got responsibilities in terms

:02:59. > :03:02.of the amount of money we have, and we are being told that we have to

:03:03. > :03:06.bring down the deficit that we have We asked people in Worcester

:03:07. > :03:15.their thoughts on rationing care. If people need hip operations,

:03:16. > :03:18.they should be given hip operations. And I think they could

:03:19. > :03:21.make savings in It is not really what we grew up

:03:22. > :03:25.to understand what the But I don't see that there

:03:26. > :03:31.is a lot that we can do There should be more money

:03:32. > :03:37.in the health service, but there is a fundamental

:03:38. > :03:40.question about whether it is going to the right places

:03:41. > :03:42.and is being allocated fairly. If the British public wants

:03:43. > :03:47.to spend more on the NHS, and it looks like they do,

:03:48. > :03:50.then we will continue to do that. We are doing that at the moment,

:03:51. > :03:53.but maybe the message For Mrs Morris, restricting her

:03:54. > :03:57.movement feels like restricting her And Michele joins us now from

:03:58. > :04:05.the Alexandra Hospital in Redditch. Is Worcestershire alone

:04:06. > :04:20.in taking this action? No, not at all. Shropshire took this

:04:21. > :04:24.action sometime last year, and their situation was even more draconian.

:04:25. > :04:29.It was five points more serious before you have a hip operation. We

:04:30. > :04:33.will be seeing more of this. If you look at the NHS five-year plan, they

:04:34. > :04:39.look at cutting operations. Sometimes up to 20%. Many hospitals

:04:40. > :04:45.have said it. It is not just hips and knees, back operations are also

:04:46. > :04:50.going to be reduced. Henne has agreed to be reduced as well. We're

:04:51. > :04:53.going to see less IDF being available, and the big issue is we

:04:54. > :05:00.have an ageing population which require more care and we need

:05:01. > :05:05.funding to provide. Could some people be waiting longer just

:05:06. > :05:09.because of where they'll? This is one of the fundamental questions

:05:10. > :05:16.about the NHS, because the idea is where ever you are, wherever you

:05:17. > :05:21.are, you get the same treatment. This is not necessarily going to be

:05:22. > :05:25.the case now. Wheels the issue of funding. Some areas do receive more

:05:26. > :05:29.funding than others. We have elderly people who are deciding to leave

:05:30. > :05:33.their houses in the city, liquidate their money, getting the countryside

:05:34. > :05:37.and that is putting pressure on those rural areas like

:05:38. > :05:41.Herefordshire, Worcestershire and Shropshire.

:05:42. > :05:43.Despite several national campaigns, some motorists continue to break

:05:44. > :05:45.the law by using their mobile phones while driving,

:05:46. > :05:50.Between 2014 and 2015, West Midlands Police issued over

:05:51. > :05:53.2,000 penalty notices, while in the West Mercia force

:05:54. > :06:03.The lowest figure in our region was recorded by Gloucestershire Police,

:06:04. > :06:06.Elizabeth Glinka has spent the day on patrol with police

:06:07. > :06:08.in Staffordshire where 1,800 notices were issued

:06:09. > :06:21.There can't be many people who don't realise that holding or talking on

:06:22. > :06:27.your mobile phone while driving is illegal. And yet people still do it.

:06:28. > :06:34.She is talking to somebody. Her phone is in her hand. We are on

:06:35. > :06:37.patrol with Staffordshire police. They have just stopped a woman who

:06:38. > :06:45.was talking on her phone using the loudspeaker. Any use of a phone

:06:46. > :06:49.other than hands-free constitutes an offence. Is that a popular

:06:50. > :06:54.misconception that the loudspeaker is OK? A little bit of that and a

:06:55. > :06:59.little bit of our just habit on and people won't notice. Amongst the

:07:00. > :07:06.people we stopped, there seems to be a mix of confusion and those who

:07:07. > :07:14.admit to a momentary lapse. It is against the law. You see as a fair

:07:15. > :07:18.cop. Yeah, I understand. The typical penalty for this offence is three

:07:19. > :07:22.points on your license and a fine of about ?100. These forces also have

:07:23. > :07:28.discretion with some operating safety courses as an alternative.

:07:29. > :07:31.All of that look set to change. The Government is introducing a new

:07:32. > :07:38.system which would mean an automatic six points on your license and fines

:07:39. > :07:42.of ?200. The aim is to create a deterrent in a world where we had a

:07:43. > :07:49.big key to our phones. This young driver was paying a bill. Mobile

:07:50. > :07:56.phone in hand. When we talk to him, it is clear that sometimes the

:07:57. > :08:01.temptation is too much. It makes you want to pick the phone up and look

:08:02. > :08:04.at it. Leave your phone alone concentrate on driving. That is what

:08:05. > :08:10.is important. Because prices are serious. Including four other

:08:11. > :08:14.members of the public. The battle for hearts and minds continues.

:08:15. > :08:17.A 25-year-old man from Birmingham has appeared in court charged

:08:18. > :08:20.with murdering a man on a bus on Monday night.

:08:21. > :08:23.36-year-old Leon Barrett-Hazle from Smethwick was stabbed

:08:24. > :08:26.and killed as he rode on the top deck of the 11A in Handsworth .

:08:27. > :08:32.Kieran Gillespie who lives in Handsworth denies the charge.

:08:33. > :08:35.Staffordshire Police are investigating a cannabis factory

:08:36. > :08:38.discovered in a series of basements in Burton on Trent.

:08:39. > :08:41.Around 800 cannabis plants have so far been recovered,

:08:42. > :08:46.with a possible street value estimated at ?400,000.

:08:47. > :08:51.The police say it's one of the largest cannabis factories

:08:52. > :08:58.It is a massive basement area underneath a large premises where

:08:59. > :09:01.several rooms, all large, have been utilised to grow the cannabis,

:09:02. > :09:05.including water supply and electricity.

:09:06. > :09:08.It is so large that a tractor and trailer was utilised in

:09:09. > :09:12.order to remove the goods from here, and that was obviously noted by

:09:13. > :09:18.members of the public who called it into us.

:09:19. > :09:20.Today is Holocaust Memorial Day, and there have been events

:09:21. > :09:22.across the Midlands to remember the atrocities.

:09:23. > :09:25.Originally created as a remembrance day for the mass murder of Jews

:09:26. > :09:29.at the hands of Nazi Germany, the day also commemorates more

:09:30. > :09:33.recent genocides such as Rwanda, Darfur and Cambodia.

:09:34. > :09:38.You may find some of the pictures in Kevin Reide's report, disturbing.

:09:39. > :09:40.In wolverhampton today, many gathered to remember those

:09:41. > :09:44.who perished for no other reason than for who they were.

:09:45. > :09:47.A service was held and wreath layed at the Cenotaph

:09:48. > :09:49.in St Peter's Square, then a statement of

:09:50. > :10:03.But about Holocaust Memorial Day is a chance for us to stop and remember

:10:04. > :10:07.the horrors of the Second World War, and the Nazi regime, as well as all

:10:08. > :10:09.those other places since then where other genocides have taken place.

:10:10. > :10:11.The day was created to remember the six million Jews

:10:12. > :10:14.who were exterminated in death camps across Nazi Germany and Poland.

:10:15. > :10:16.Susi Bechofer who lives in Rugby survived when she and her twin

:10:17. > :10:19.were amongst 10,000 Jewish children rescued from Germany

:10:20. > :10:26.She's written a book about her Mum, Rosa, who had to stay in Germany

:10:27. > :10:29.before being taken to Auschwitz's gas chambers, all

:10:30. > :10:46.This is a tribute to browser, and all the parents who relinquished

:10:47. > :10:48.their children to be safe. The majority of parents perished in gas

:10:49. > :10:49.chambers. Today National Holocaust Day

:10:50. > :10:51.is also about remembering all genocides such as Rwanda,

:10:52. > :10:55.Cambodia and Darfur. At the Hive in Worcester, Jewish,

:10:56. > :11:10.Muslim and Christian communities As well as children from five

:11:11. > :11:13.schools. I think it is important for young people to be educated about

:11:14. > :11:20.what happened, so we can pay our respects. What happened to people's

:11:21. > :11:21.grandparents, parents and great-grandparents, it shouldn't be

:11:22. > :11:21.forgotten. And for Susi, it's about

:11:22. > :11:31.turning horror to hope. I think valuing other people for who

:11:32. > :11:33.they are, whatever their race or creed, is paramount.

:11:34. > :11:37.Kevin Reide, BBC Midlands Today, Warwickshire.

:11:38. > :11:39.Thanks for joining us on Midlands Today, this is our top

:11:40. > :11:42.story tonight: Plans to restrict knee and hip operations

:11:43. > :11:47.in Worcestershire to those in severe pain.

:11:48. > :11:49.You've been getting in touch with us on this story.

:11:50. > :11:52.Rosalie Daubney says "If they don't agree to do my husband's knee soon,

:11:53. > :11:55.it's going to cost them more in the end, because it's

:12:49. > :12:55.in student intake. More than 8000 students were accepted places across

:12:56. > :12:57.the university group. The future of farming and the Brexit is still

:12:58. > :12:58.uncertain. As with the referendum itself,

:12:59. > :13:00.some in agriculture are optimistic, while others fear

:13:01. > :13:02.for their livelihood. Joanne Gallacher has been to meet

:13:03. > :13:05.two farmers who have a very different take on the future

:13:06. > :13:07.of farming after we leave Newborn lambs - a sign of fresh

:13:08. > :13:11.starts and new beginnings, but for this Oswestry farmer,

:13:12. > :13:14.the future's a worry. Malcolm Roberts exports his produce

:13:15. > :13:19.to France, Italy Spain and Germany. In fact, 40% of UK

:13:20. > :13:21.lamb goes to Europe. He voted to remain in

:13:22. > :13:23.the European Union and is concerned Brexit could make things

:13:24. > :13:37.difficult down on the farm. Our business needs sound economic

:13:38. > :13:40.growth, and my time of life I hate to say it, but if we are messing

:13:41. > :13:42.around with our business for the next 15 or 20 years, that is

:13:43. > :13:43.probably going my career done. The message from the Government

:13:44. > :13:57.is everything will be fine, Can see the concern. And join it

:13:58. > :14:00.will still be subsidies but the devil is in the detail. Every

:14:01. > :14:02.individual farmer gets a different subsidy depending on the size and

:14:03. > :14:03.efficiency of the farm. Farming accounts for about ?1

:14:04. > :14:16.billion worth of business a year On farms like these, farmers receive

:14:17. > :14:19.around ?70 an acre in EE subsidies, but with Brexit that money is likely

:14:20. > :14:19.to go. Leave campaigner Owen Paterson

:14:20. > :14:22.is the MP for this area. He says farmers like Malcolm have

:14:23. > :14:32.nothing to fear from Brexit. They have a wonderful opportunity to

:14:33. > :14:35.help design a completely new rural policy tailored around their

:14:36. > :14:36.industry and our environment. Just 50 miles away in Staffordshire,

:14:37. > :14:38.the atmosphere on this 500-acre beef and arable farm

:14:39. > :14:41.is one of excitement. He wants to take back

:14:42. > :14:56.control and he has no We're still in Europe, we still farm

:14:57. > :14:59.in Europe, we still trade with Europe. I still think in the future

:15:00. > :15:00.we will be trading in Europe. They need us, we need them.

:15:01. > :15:03.There may be a stand-off for now, but it's inevitable there'll be

:15:04. > :15:07.a locking of horns as ministers try to get right the terms of Brexit

:15:08. > :15:15.And you can see more on that story on Sunday politics

:15:16. > :15:26.The RSPB's big garden birdwatch starts this weekend.

:15:27. > :15:29.The charity's asking us to record the birds that visit our gardens

:15:30. > :15:32.over the course of an hour, so they can work out

:15:33. > :15:35.which species are doing well, and which ones are struggling.

:15:36. > :15:38.So for some top garden bird-watching tips we sent environment

:15:39. > :15:41.correspondent David Gregory-Kumar to meet Springwatch star

:15:42. > :15:43.Kate MacRae, who took these amazing pictures

:15:44. > :15:52.Last year in the RSPB's Big Garden Birdwatch,

:15:53. > :15:59.So let's get some tips for this weekend.

:16:00. > :16:01.What are your top tips for how to feed birds,

:16:02. > :16:03.how to get more birds into your garden?

:16:04. > :16:07.Well, I think you have to think of it a bit like a

:16:08. > :16:10.The more different kinds of food you can put out

:16:11. > :16:13.and different kinds of ways you can feed them, then the more

:16:14. > :16:16.different species you're going to attract because not all birds like

:16:17. > :16:20.the same food and not all like feeding in the same way.

:16:21. > :16:31.Kate has spotted over 50 different bird species

:16:32. > :16:37.But about a lot of the cheap stuff is bowled out with wheat, and the

:16:38. > :16:41.only species that are going to like the plea by the pigeons. It isn't

:16:42. > :16:45.worth saving up spending a little bit more and having a bit more of a

:16:46. > :16:50.gourmet mix, you will get a better selection of species. Cake has

:16:51. > :16:51.bodied many different species. The Midlands gardenwatch top five:

:16:52. > :16:53.sparrow, blue tip, starling, blackbird and wood pigeon have

:16:54. > :16:56.all been caught by her cameras. But she records less

:16:57. > :16:57.common visitors, too, Well, one that is always

:16:58. > :17:01.really exciting to get is the woodpecker, and Great Spotted

:17:02. > :17:04.Woodpeckers were another species that have taken advantage

:17:05. > :17:09.of our changing in the way we feed. And this year the whole

:17:10. > :17:11.event has been extended by a day

:17:12. > :17:13.to cover the Monday as well as the weekend,

:17:14. > :17:14.and that means you don't

:17:15. > :17:16.have to do a whole hour in your garden,

:17:17. > :17:18.you could Garden Birdwatch is our largest

:17:19. > :17:23.citizen science experiment, providing vital information on how

:17:24. > :17:27.all our garden birds are doing. David Gregory-Kumar,

:17:28. > :17:31.BBC Midlands Today, Lichfield. And for more details on how

:17:32. > :17:34.to take part in the garden FA Cup fourth round weekend -

:17:35. > :17:49.always a treat, if your It's only a two-horse race,

:17:50. > :17:58.but Wolves are the 10-1 outsiders to pull off a shock

:17:59. > :18:01.victory against Liverpool. Anyone who saw them cruise past

:18:02. > :18:04.Stoke City in round three might But one former Liverpool player

:18:05. > :18:08.knows exactly how tough He was born in the red half

:18:09. > :18:16.of Merseyside, joined Liverpool's Academy aged six,

:18:17. > :18:20.spent 15 years with the club, played twice for the first team,

:18:21. > :18:36.But never at Anfield ... How are you? 24 hours before the big

:18:37. > :18:38.game. But Mac I can't wait. It is good to be a great occasion.

:18:39. > :18:39.Everyone is looking forward to it. No wonder Conor Coady was chuffed

:18:40. > :18:42.to bits when Liverpool Because he'd already set his heart

:18:43. > :18:46.on playing for Wolves at the home If only Wolves can repeat the sort

:18:47. > :19:01.of form they showed three weeks A little bird tells EU went bananas

:19:02. > :19:04.when the draw was made. Yak, to draw them was fantastic. It is massive

:19:05. > :19:06.for everybody. Everybody was to be on the best team.

:19:07. > :19:09.If only Wolves can repeat the sort of form they showed three weeks

:19:10. > :19:11.ago to beat Stoke City, they must have a chance.

:19:12. > :19:13.Ok, so the bookies disagree and make Liverpool

:19:14. > :19:18.But few people know the Reds manager Jurgen Klopp better

:19:19. > :19:23.They go back a long way, and share a strong connection

:19:24. > :19:36.Very nice guy, but even when he is nice, I would like to send him home

:19:37. > :19:38.with empty hands. Tomorrow lunchtime,

:19:39. > :19:40.Klopp's got the Kop, but Lambert's got lots of very loud

:19:41. > :19:51.Wolves fans, more Labour's support has been fantastic

:19:52. > :19:55.since I have been here. We're going to have two weather a storm at

:19:56. > :19:59.Anfield, but the supporters will help us. If the sport is the winning

:20:00. > :20:07.normally do it will be a great atmosphere. Will you touch the

:20:08. > :20:09.Anfield sign? ' no, I play for Wills. It is the other way around,

:20:10. > :20:20.maybe. Not this weekend. Good luck. But today an apology

:20:21. > :20:25.from Saido Berahino to Albion fans. Yes we heard from Berahino

:20:26. > :20:27.today for the first time since making his ?12 million move

:20:28. > :20:31.from Albion to Stoke City. Now Berahino has been

:20:32. > :20:34.agitating for a move away from the Hawthorns

:20:35. > :20:37.for the past two seasons. But today the 23-year-old

:20:38. > :20:53.said that the Albion I have got regrets, I could have

:20:54. > :20:57.handled it better. I was still a young lad, I was in a situation

:20:58. > :21:01.where most footballers ever BN. You live and learn. We are here now, and

:21:02. > :21:06.I'm just glad to be here. The Birmingham Bears were given

:21:07. > :21:15.a civic reception this afternoon. That's to recognise their victory

:21:16. > :21:17.in the One Day Cup They were at Lords on the 29th

:21:18. > :21:23.of August last year. But for cricket-lovers the good news

:21:24. > :21:30.is that it's only 70 days Nick will be delighted it is only 70

:21:48. > :21:49.in a new exhibition. We sent out Arts Reporter Satnam

:21:50. > :22:04.Rana to see them in action. The next generation

:22:05. > :22:06.of Northern Soul Lovers. The Northern Soul first

:22:07. > :22:08.emerged over 50 years ago, orginating from the Tamala

:22:09. > :22:10.and Mowton Studios But it was unkown singers that

:22:11. > :22:25.defined the music of the movement. it is all about as young people,

:22:26. > :22:30.which highlight, because it comes from an older generation and it is

:22:31. > :22:33.nice that we are taking over. 18 years old and they're going out on

:22:34. > :22:38.knees all night is and are still dancing. It is fantastic. It is

:22:39. > :22:40.never going to die. Good looking round, people bouncing, music

:22:41. > :22:41.playing, nothing like it. Also on the dance floor,

:23:18. > :23:20.the young soulies as their work goes public in a free exhibition

:23:21. > :23:30.at Birmingham City university's A lot of the books and films and

:23:31. > :23:34.adverts are about the older generation, and the young generation

:23:35. > :23:36.are as passionate. I think it is important to look at that side and

:23:37. > :23:37.how it affects their lives. Northern Soul is still dominated

:23:38. > :23:40.by its orginal fans but new followers are determined

:23:41. > :23:49.to keep the faith, too. After a cold week, how's the weather
