:07:39. > :07:40.reporter Emma Thomas So does this mean the party

:07:41. > :07:49.is confident about winning? The party leader might speak

:07:50. > :07:51.confidently about why she believes the Conservatives are best party

:07:52. > :07:54.to represent what is largely a working class constituency,

:07:55. > :07:56.but election history Stoke Central has never

:07:57. > :08:00.had a Conservative MP. The seat has been held by Labour

:08:01. > :08:05.throughout its existence since 1950. In the 2015 General Election,

:08:31. > :08:34.I lead will be a government that ensures we have a country that

:08:35. > :08:36.works for everyone. The people in Stoke on the 23rd

:08:57. > :09:00.big guns to woo the voters? You know there's a nationally

:09:01. > :09:01.significant by-election looming when the Leader of the Opposition

:09:02. > :09:04.starts spending his We've seen plenty of Jeremy Corbyn

:09:05. > :09:08.and his predecessor Ed Miliband As was Tim Farron, the leader of the

:09:09. > :09:18.Liberal Democrats. As for Ukip, their leader

:09:21. > :09:25.for his campaign as two senior party I expect this to continue to be

:09:26. > :09:28.a closely fought contest right Now, we all know that good diet

:09:29. > :09:42.and exercise can help prevent a range of health problems,

:09:43. > :09:45.such as diabetes, strokes and falls. But did you know that if children

:09:46. > :09:48.don't reach a certain level of physical fitness by the age

:09:49. > :09:51.of 11, they're more likely to be Researchers have been

:09:52. > :09:53.gathering valuable data at Coventry University today,

:09:54. > :09:56.about the skills children need, if they're to carry

:09:57. > :09:58.on exercising when they grow up. You'd usually find elite athletes

:09:59. > :10:07.using this equipment here at Coventry University,

:10:08. > :10:09.but for the next two days these children's running,

:10:10. > :10:11.jumping and catching skills are being analysed

:10:12. > :10:12.By researchers studying If they do not learn the we tend

:10:13. > :10:23.to find there's a cut-off they tend to withdraw

:10:24. > :10:28.from those activities. They drop out of sport and become

:10:29. > :10:31.less active and long term suffer on a programme to identify

:10:32. > :10:39.those children who need help With child and adult

:10:40. > :10:42.obesity at worrying levels, research into early

:10:43. > :10:55.interventions is welcomed. if you are sitting watching the

:10:56. > :11:03.television all the time, you will get fat. You need to get active,

:11:04. > :11:09.healthy and drink water. It is about exercising and eating healthily. The

:11:10. > :11:14.message seems to be getting through and making a difference. The

:11:15. > :11:18.children who know how to jump and catch transition into being more

:11:19. > :11:20.active. We believe that will lead to them being physically active for

:11:21. > :11:22.longer, and having a longer life. Although academics go

:11:23. > :11:24.into schools quite often to teach children about science and sport,

:11:25. > :11:37.it's quite rare that children The university hopes this work will

:11:38. > :11:40.inspire these children and others to stay active.

:12:08. > :12:29.If you have a story you think we should

:12:30. > :12:32.It's an increasingly common sight - a homeless person sheltering

:12:33. > :12:36.Birmingham is in the top ten of cities with high

:12:37. > :12:37.numbers of rough sleepers, according to latest

:12:38. > :12:44.But many hostels don't have the facilities to take

:12:45. > :12:46.in animals at night, so new efforts are being made

:12:47. > :12:48.to accommodate the homeless with their canine companions.

:12:49. > :12:51.Joan Cummins has spoken to one man who only came off the streets,

:12:52. > :13:04.when he was told his dog could be homed, too.

:13:05. > :13:06.Chris ended up sofa surfing and sleeping rough

:13:07. > :13:16.to a life on the streets with just his pet dogs

:13:17. > :13:25.for company, preferring to put their needs before his own.

:13:26. > :13:31.If you have no one to go, the dogs are all you have left.

:13:32. > :13:33.There are all I have, so I cherish them.

:13:34. > :13:39.To many rough sleepers, their dogs are there only family.

:13:40. > :13:41.Outreach workers say they are worried that,

:13:52. > :13:54.rough sleepers off the streets and into safe accomodation.

:13:55. > :13:56.The scheme to get people back on their feet is funded

:13:57. > :13:59.by Birmingham City Council, and they're now opening their doors

:14:00. > :14:02.The dogs are there as their friend and companion.

:14:03. > :14:09.So we look to offer a provision of accommodation to a

:14:10. > :14:17.It's good that they are giving the people

:14:18. > :14:27.I know a lot of people that have dogs going into hostels and things.

:14:28. > :14:30.It's hard to estimate how many people are sleeping rough

:14:31. > :14:33.with their pets, but it's hoped schemes that allow animals

:14:34. > :14:43.into hostels will help start to reduce the homeless figures.

:14:44. > :14:48.You've been sharing your views about this story.

:14:49. > :14:49.St Anne's accommodation, in Birmingham, for example,

:14:50. > :14:51.has pointed out they've been providing shelter for homeless

:14:52. > :14:53.people and their dogs within their hostel

:14:54. > :14:58.While Gill Roberton posted on Facebook that it is

:14:59. > :15:16."obviously brought about by someone with a sense of humanity."

:15:17. > :15:20.Thank you to all of you who got in touch.

:15:21. > :15:23.For more than 850 years, the same ancient church bell has

:15:24. > :15:26.rung out across a tiny isolated community in Shropshire.

:15:27. > :15:28.As one of the oldest bells in the country,

:15:29. > :15:30.experts believe it's of national importance.

:15:31. > :15:33.This afternoon, for the first time in centuries, villagers in Myndtown

:15:34. > :15:39.got the chance to see it when it was removed

:15:40. > :15:59.Watching over this remote spots, supporters say the church has...

:16:00. > :16:06.With scaffolding up for important restoration work, today history was

:16:07. > :16:11.made as they spell dating back to 1150 one is removed from the first

:16:12. > :16:14.time ever to be repaired. They have a beautiful sound. We want them back

:16:15. > :16:21.up there. We want people under supervision, to bring them and to

:16:22. > :16:27.say they rang a 12th century bell. This is the third oldest bell in the

:16:28. > :16:30.country. The other Bell at Myndtown Church, a mere 600 years old, was

:16:31. > :16:38.also brought down for conservation work. A ?200,000 grant from the

:16:39. > :16:42.Heritage lottery fund is paying for the restoration. Although sparse and

:16:43. > :16:47.remarked today, this community would want something much more

:16:48. > :16:52.significant. The village of Myndtown, where a much larger

:16:53. > :16:58.settlement in the Domesday book we paid three times as much as

:16:59. > :17:05.Birmingham in rates, something like ?3 to their ?1. A good reason to

:17:06. > :17:12.preserve Myndtown's heritage, then. And with care came to mind as the

:17:13. > :17:18.bells were moved back down to earth. After being run countless times, the

:17:19. > :17:24.bell is safely down. Once the repairs are finished, at a secret

:17:25. > :17:25.location, the fully restored bells will return to this isolated spot in

:17:26. > :17:30.May. Time for sport.

:17:31. > :17:32.Dan Pallett's here. And Wolves' Wembley dream may

:17:33. > :17:35.be over in the FA Cup, but it's very much alive

:17:36. > :17:37.for Coventry City fans Yes, more on Wolves defeat

:17:38. > :17:41.against Chelsea in a moment. But first to Coventry,

:17:42. > :17:43.where season tickets from six o'clock this morning

:17:44. > :17:47.to book their Wembley tickets. The club's been allocated

:17:48. > :17:50.just under 40,000 seats for the Checkatrade Trophy

:17:51. > :17:53.final in April. And Ian Winter joined the early

:17:54. > :17:56.birds this morning. Coventry City are not used to people

:17:57. > :18:03.queueing for tickets. But today, the owners

:18:04. > :18:05.got a timely reminder about the passionate support

:18:06. > :18:08.that is crying out for success. And if that means the Checkatrade

:18:09. > :18:13.Trophy final, then bring it on. They may be rock bottom

:18:14. > :18:16.of League One, they may be staring relegation in the face,

:18:17. > :18:18.but there is nothing quite appearance to bring these

:18:19. > :18:22.long-suffering Coventry City supporters out in

:18:23. > :18:25.force this morning. We're going to go there

:18:26. > :18:29.and have a fantastic day. And I've always wanted to see

:18:30. > :18:37.Coventry City go to Wembley, It is all part of the

:18:38. > :18:41.experience, queueing. I could have bought tickets

:18:42. > :18:44.online, but I like being So it was busy, busy

:18:45. > :18:51.at Coventry Rugby club, where sky blues season-ticket

:18:52. > :18:53.holders where able to choose Many with fond memories of winning

:18:54. > :18:57.the FA Cup back in 1987. Terry, did that hat to go

:18:58. > :19:00.to Wembley 30 years ago? And I'm going to take

:19:01. > :19:07.my grandchildren. But will Terry's children also

:19:08. > :19:13.experience the pain of relegation? On Saturday, two goals in five

:19:14. > :19:15.minutes from Kwame Thomas, and then George Thomas,

:19:16. > :19:17.helped Coventry to their first league win since

:19:18. > :19:20.the 1st of November. And they are still ten

:19:21. > :19:35.points adrift of safety. One of their relegation rivals won

:19:36. > :19:38.also. Walsall grabbed two goals

:19:39. > :19:40.in stoppage time, including through Kyren Morris,

:19:41. > :19:42.to beat Peterborough and move But today belongs to the sky blues,

:19:43. > :19:54.who have sold almost 15,000 of their allotted 40,000

:19:55. > :19:56.Wembley tickets. So plenty of positives

:19:57. > :19:59.in League One and Two. But extremely worrying

:20:00. > :20:00.times for Birmingham City It's one win in 14 games now

:20:01. > :20:07.since the popular Gary Rowett was sacked and replaced

:20:08. > :20:10.by Zola in December. And Saturday's 4-1

:20:11. > :20:12.defeat at home to QPR There were reports afterwards

:20:13. > :20:18.that Zola was set to Apparently, that's not the case,

:20:19. > :20:23.and the club continues to back him. But you do wonder where

:20:24. > :20:26.he goes from here. On Friday, they've got a trip

:20:27. > :20:31.to Wolves for a Midlands derby. Wolves' FA Cup run came

:20:32. > :20:36.to an end on Saturday. They lost nothing in defeat to

:20:37. > :20:39.the Premier League leaders Chelsea. But we did have a winner

:20:40. > :20:43.in the Championship. That's given them a four point

:20:44. > :20:51.cushion above the relegation zone. Villa are away to

:20:52. > :20:59.Newcastle this evening. We will have the result of that on

:21:00. > :21:07.our late Billiton. Fashion And we've got two teams

:21:08. > :21:09.into the FA Vase semifinals. Bromsgrove Sporting face

:21:10. > :21:13.Cleethorpes Town and Coleshill Town So we could have an

:21:43. > :21:48.for the city of Birmingham. And we can't finish

:21:49. > :21:50.without a mention of Gloucester's They beat last season's Premiership

:21:51. > :22:03.champions Saracens 31-23. Worcester had beat Saracens the week

:22:08. > :22:11.for seven hours a day? Well that's what's on offer

:22:12. > :22:14.for a lucky candidate, applying to be a taster

:22:15. > :22:16.at the confectionary But you'd have to be prepared

:22:17. > :22:21.to travel for your chocolate fix - Ben Moore's been along to see

:23:00. > :23:07.won't be a piece of cake. It was advertised on social media,

:23:08. > :23:10.so there have been more We are not looking to see

:23:11. > :23:17.whether they like the sample or not. We are looking for them to taste it,

:23:18. > :23:20.and to basically say what they see, say what they taste

:23:21. > :23:23.from the product. Through the tasting hatch,

:23:24. > :23:25.there is a change of mood. We use a red light

:24:33. > :24:42.talking my way round it. But I suppose, for times like these,

:24:43. > :24:48.there is always chocolate. A Birmingham Professor believes

:24:49. > :24:50.that the rainbow in a Constable painting was added by the artist

:24:51. > :24:55.later, as tribute to a friend. John Thornes who is an expert

:25:08. > :25:09.of Constable's friend, as well as pointing

:25:10. > :25:16.to the cottage where he lived. Doesn't feel like February -

:25:17. > :25:19.let's find out if the mild weather is going to be with us all week,

:25:20. > :25:29.Shefali has the forecast. Knots to this degree. But there

:25:30. > :25:34.could be some rainbows. Let us concentrate and celebrated a's

:25:35. > :25:40.weather. We have Spring flowers in Coventry. To part of the region that

:25:41. > :25:51.saw the highest temperatures today at 16 Celsius. The cloud was

:25:52. > :25:55.breaking for the South, but it is now starting to thicken up and bring

:25:56. > :26:00.in rain across the north of the region. This is a sign of things to

:26:01. > :26:03.come. We have unsettled conditions this week, changeable weather fronts

:26:04. > :26:09.moving in from the Atlantic. The wind strengthening as well. You can

:26:10. > :26:17.see some snow there to the north of the country. Low pressure dominating

:26:18. > :26:21.and winds turning north-westerly by Thursday. In summary, this is what

:26:22. > :26:25.it looks like this week. Mild conditions to begin with, but then

:26:26. > :26:29.wet and windy at times. Possibly turning my other into the weekend

:26:30. > :26:34.once again. That is something to look forward to, I suppose, but not

:26:35. > :26:38.to the degree that we see today with highs of 16 Celsius. Incidentally,

:26:39. > :26:44.that is double the sorts of highs you would normally see at this time

:26:45. > :26:49.of year. This event, a few spits and spots of rain. Not much, but more

:26:50. > :26:55.travelling in from the north later on tonight. Covering the region,

:26:56. > :26:58.heavy bursts possible. I of the cloud, some ministers well. Quite a

:26:59. > :27:04.mild night with temperatures dropping to a minimum of nine or 10

:27:05. > :27:08.Celsius. Mild, wet, cloudy, et al, into tomorrow. That's rain will

:27:09. > :27:13.eventually start to clear away leaving drizzly bits and pieces.

:27:14. > :27:17.Another band threatening to move in from the West. Better brightness

:27:18. > :27:20.perhaps, but top temperatures of around 13 Celcius. Wet tomorrow

:27:21. > :27:23.night, sunshine and showers on Wednesday.
