:12:50. > :12:50.are totally inappropriate. and it should stay in
:12:51. > :13:00.the middle of fields. We know we need the housing but
:13:01. > :13:03.it's got to be in the right place. Green field sites are
:13:04. > :13:06.not the right place. It's recently been restored

:14:31. > :14:33.and many residents say it's a far more suitable area

:14:38. > :14:40.planning to build a quarter of a million homes per year,
:14:41. > :14:44.this is the kind of controversy set to befall communities up

:14:57. > :15:01.Bob, battle lines have been drawn. How long do we have before a
:15:02. > :15:06.decision is made? Welcome Solihull council hasn't put a timescale on
:15:07. > :15:11.this, yet, Nick. This is a draft local plan so it hasn't been
:15:12. > :15:14.approved, and has to go before a government planning Inspectorate
:15:15. > :15:17.before it can be passed. Residents say it is not just the landscape
:15:18. > :15:21.around the windmill that they are concerned about but they say that
:15:22. > :15:25.the village was an infrastructure just can't cope with more houses
:15:26. > :15:28.already the schools are full and they said that the doctor's surgery
:15:29. > :15:35.also struggles as well. Best when Bell has overlooked the village for
:15:36. > :15:39.two centuries now and this has certainly been a contentious chapter

:16:24. > :16:25.and to refurbish empty homes. He's been talking to our political
:16:26. > :16:30.editor, Patrick Burns. First they campaigned,
:16:31. > :16:32.successfully, to get in to the European Parliament,
:16:33. > :16:36.in order to get out of it. Now they're campaigning again for
:16:37. > :16:41.a role they strongly disapprove of. They say regional devolution means
:16:42. > :16:43.devolving power away from the people The Metro Mayor is happening
:16:44. > :16:49.and what I'm saying is actually lets get in there and make
:16:50. > :16:52.sure the combined authority worked as efficiently as possibly can,
:16:53. > :16:55.and ultimately a Ukip mayor will keep tight control on it
:16:56. > :17:00.and will actually make sure that it works as
:17:01. > :17:02.the most efficient He's not the first candidate
:17:03. > :17:06.to single out the M6 Toll road He wants to get more lorries to use
:17:07. > :17:10.it, instead of the main M6. I'd like to try and do that
:17:11. > :17:14.with some subsidies because currently at ?11 per HGV, it's not
:17:15. > :17:17.economic to get on there, so let's try and make it
:17:18. > :17:20.economic for them to get And he's joined calls for the mayor
:17:21. > :17:25.to be paid around ?30,000 a year: that's over ?100,000
:17:26. > :17:28.less than the new mayor Why is ours worth so
:17:29. > :17:32.much less than theirs? I don't think it's an issue
:17:33. > :17:35.of what it's worth, I'm saying that from my point of view I think
:17:36. > :17:38.that it should be all about passion and commitment
:17:39. > :17:41.and wanting to help and drive your region forward not about the amount
:17:42. > :17:44.of money that you can get. It's a party political
:17:45. > :17:45.contest, of course. But the nature of the job makes this
:17:46. > :17:48.much more about the personalities Pete Durnell is one of five
:17:49. > :17:56.candidates so far declared for this first Midlands Metro mayoral
:17:57. > :17:59.election on May fourth. You'll find more

:18:41. > :18:42.to be demolished as part of a ?300 million City Centre
:18:43. > :18:47.South redevelopment. Previous schemes like the ambitious
:18:48. > :18:50.Jerde project failed but this time What is different here is,
:18:51. > :18:55.the money is in place, ?200 million from the private sector
:18:56. > :18:58.for the developer, who has done We've got ?100 million
:18:59. > :19:04.from the combined authority. The permission is in place.
:19:05. > :19:07.Now we want to see it happen. Coventry is already
:19:08. > :19:10.seeing a building boom. This former Royal Mail sorting
:19:11. > :19:13.office site will soon be The first time I came
:19:14. > :19:18.here, the sorting office We acquired it from the Royal Mail
:19:19. > :19:23.when they vacated it. It was a derelict site
:19:24. > :19:27.and it is great to be investing in the site and bringing it
:19:28. > :19:31.back to life. And there are plenty
:19:32. > :19:33.of cranes on the skyline, with numerous similar
:19:34. > :19:35.projects under way. This is a sign of regeneration

:19:44. > :19:49.converted into a boutique hotel, This used to be
:19:50. > :19:53.the newsroom, I think. There's photographers,
:19:54. > :19:54.sub editors... It's the brainchild of Coventry

:21:28. > :21:33.1st Coventry's players needed a special performance even to beat
:21:34. > :21:35.League Two Wycombe. They took a 2-nil half-time
:21:36. > :21:40.lead against Wycombe. First, Stuart Beavon's deflected

:22:08. > :22:09.and the Sky Blues fans. But Coventry survived and will head
:22:10. > :22:14.to Wembley at the end of April. Coventry City are still a club
:22:15. > :22:17.with many problems. All the more reason then
:22:18. > :22:26.to savour this success. Motorbike enthusiasts from

:23:02. > :23:10.Norton into iconic brand. And I thought that's a job that

:23:15. > :23:18.still treasure their Nortons - as I found out when
:23:19. > :23:26.I went to his shed. I was road testing the north
:23:27. > :23:30.commando -- Norton Commander in the late cities that got me hooked on
:23:31. > :23:32.Northern's top left engineering for many years but it was always in your
:23:33. > :23:33.blood, like malaria. James Lansdowne Norton -
:23:34. > :23:39.the founder of the company. He set up Norton originally to make
:23:40. > :23:41.bicycle parts but in 1902 Some of them are on display
:23:42. > :23:54.in the National Motorcycle Museum. Absolute towering industry figure.
:23:55. > :23:56.One of the most people -- important people I suppose in the British
:23:57. > :24:07.motorcycle industry certainly in the early days. This is the place where
:24:08. > :24:11.these bikes were first built. Sadly the factory is long gone, but the
:24:12. > :24:12.legacy of Norton continues. The latest Norton bikes
:24:13. > :24:14.are still made in the Midlands But enthusiests haven't been
:24:15. > :24:18.so impressed at the state of the Norton founder's grave -
:24:19. > :24:21.which Barry took me to in a cemenrty It does need a bit of TLC, there's
:24:22. > :24:28.no doubt about that. Now Barry's leading a campaign
:24:29. > :24:31.to have the memorial restored - and he even tracked one
:24:32. > :24:38.of Norton's grand-daughters. When we spoke about doing the
:24:39. > :24:42.growing up she said I would talk to the surviving family and we will get
:24:43. > :24:50.it done and yeah, we are going ahead with it. But what would Norton
:24:51. > :24:51.himself make about the fast? I have a feeling he would be chuffed about
:24:52. > :24:55.it will So to the weather after a decidedly
:24:56. > :25:07.cooler day across the region. Leeds yesterday we had clout to
:25:08. > :25:10.start off with men and beautiful sunshine to look forward to but
:25:11. > :25:16.unfortunately the cloud is sticking and lingering through the day. We
:25:17. > :25:19.had mist and fog as well that was stubborn to lift about this is how
:25:20. > :25:25.it goes for the next few days, the theme I'm afraid. We have a pretty
:25:26. > :25:27.light easterly winds, easterly winds drawing in colder air but because
:25:28. > :25:32.they are like there is nothing to churn up the cloud and break it up,
:25:33. > :25:34.I'm afraid. Of course that will also holds temperatures down and you will
:25:35. > :25:38.notice that the easterly wind will also draw in a few wintry showers
:25:39. > :25:45.along the spine of the country, some of those they just cross into the
:25:46. > :25:49.Midlands as well. But for tonight, we've got showers about the region
:25:50. > :25:53.but they are mainly of rain, just a flicker of snow here and there
:25:54. > :25:56.because the air is not cold enough, yet, but will become colder later on
:25:57. > :26:00.tonight. Lots of clout but where we get some breaks we see temperatures
:26:01. > :26:07.nearing freezing, and in the rural spot that value may be -1 or minus
:26:08. > :26:13.two Celsius. Widespread frost on the cards, best and fog in the morning
:26:14. > :26:16.tomorrow as well, but they gradually clears but in some spots lingering
:26:17. > :26:21.because temperatures struggled to get much above two Celsius tomorrow.
:26:22. > :26:26.That is because of all of the cloud sitting right across us. As we can
:26:27. > :26:29.see the winds are light to moderate, from the easterly director on and
:26:30. > :26:33.because they are moderate that may add a bit of a wind chill as well.
:26:34. > :26:38.They bitterly cold day tomorrow, feeling raw, and feeling raw into
:26:39. > :26:41.tomorrow night as well. That cloud persists again and where it breaks
:26:42. > :26:44.in the western half of the region, always getting the best of any
:26:45. > :26:51.brightness that is on offer, we will see the temperatures again -- once
:26:52. > :26:56.again falling into the negative. Frosty on Friday, but Friday itself
:26:57. > :26:58.will be a cloudy day, again, Friday night into Saturday, some frost on
:26:59. > :27:01.the cars buzz temperatures during the day not really very much
:27:02. > :27:08.different during the night. I'll be back at 10.30
:27:09. > :27:21.with your late update. We are going to leave you with some
:27:22. > :27:23.images from the funeral of somebody who I was proud to call a friend.
:27:24. > :28:14.The much loved Rachael Heyhoe Flint. when farmers leave
:28:15. > :28:17.their daily routines behind... Right, here we come, Dorset!
