I just think it's a cash cow, basically.

:00:00.:00:15.

Drivers in Birmingham and Wolverhampton have received more

:00:16.:00:19.

fines than almost anywhere else in the country.

:00:20.:00:21.

We speak to an anorexia sufferer who says NHS

:00:22.:00:25.

I went to the adult services, but straightaway they said

:00:26.:00:32.

we're not going to help you because you weigh too little.

:00:33.:00:35.

The shocking reality of acid attacks on women -

:00:36.:00:37.

a former beauty queen goes behind the camera to meet the victims.

:00:38.:00:40.

In the heat of the kitchen with the Birmingham man

:00:41.:00:43.

who could tonight become school chef of the year.

:00:44.:00:48.

And in the cool of the night, heavy rain arrives from the south

:00:49.:00:52.

but is it a trend that's likely to last into the weekend?

:00:53.:00:55.

Motorists in two of the region's major cities have received more

:00:56.:01:11.

fines for driving in bus lanes than almost anywhere

:01:12.:01:15.

A BBC investigation has found that drivers in Birmingham

:01:16.:01:19.

and Wolverhampton are among the top five to fall foul

:01:20.:01:21.

Birmingham issued nearly 55,000 fines in the year 2015-16,

:01:22.:01:34.

with 21,000 of those on one road alone.

:01:35.:01:36.

Income from all those fines was almost ?1.7million.

:01:37.:01:38.

In the corresponding period in Wolverhampton,

:01:39.:01:54.

over 57,500 fines were handed out, with 25,000

:01:55.:01:55.

Local authorities have denied claims by one motoring organisation that

:01:56.:02:00.

they're effectively overseeing a 'cash bonanza'.

:02:01.:02:01.

?3 million - that's how much Wolverhampton

:02:02.:02:04.

and Birmingham Councils made between them from bus

:02:05.:02:06.

It's a figure that horrifies taxi driver Garry Aldridge.

:02:07.:02:11.

He received a demand for ?30 after driving into a bus lane

:02:12.:02:15.

But because he's not paid, the fine has now come up to over ?400.

:02:16.:02:25.

I just think it's a cash cow, basically.

:02:26.:02:30.

This bus lane in Wolverhampton's Victoria Square made more money

:02:31.:02:38.

through fines than any other bus lane in Newcastle.

:02:39.:02:48.

Birmingham was number five in the fines league table.

:02:49.:02:50.

It didn't take long for our cameras to spot cars

:02:51.:02:53.

Nearly half of the 55,000 fines issued by Birmingham City Council

:02:54.:02:56.

in one year were incurred by motorists driving down this bus

:02:57.:03:02.

lane at St Martin's Queensway next to the Bullring shopping centre.

:03:03.:03:05.

Motorists we spoke to said they felt it was too easy to make a mistake.

:03:06.:03:10.

If I came up this way with my car, I wouldn't have thought this

:03:11.:03:13.

I don't think there's another warning at all.

:03:14.:03:25.

They are making a lot of money out of it, aren't they?

:03:26.:03:30.

Birmingham City Council insists the signs are adequate.

:03:31.:03:32.

It says the money raised pays for improvements

:03:33.:03:33.

And labelling bus lanes as lucrative is wrong.

:03:34.:03:36.

Is this fining people for going in bus lanes simply a cash

:03:37.:03:39.

That's not what bus lanes are for at all.

:03:40.:03:42.

They are there to maximise the capacity of our roads.

:03:43.:03:45.

If people break the law and get in the way of that,

:03:46.:03:48.

they would expect the full force to come down on them like it

:03:49.:03:52.

would if they were driving and texting at the same time.

:03:53.:03:57.

Some drivers have successfully appealed against fines after taking

:03:58.:04:01.

Campaigners say such motorists are in the minority.

:04:02.:04:06.

They will continue to fight against the bus lanes.

:04:07.:04:14.

Earlier I spoke to Simon Williams of the RAC who joined us

:04:15.:04:17.

What did he make of these figures concerning bus lanes?

:04:18.:04:22.

Something must be investigated here, because it's just too large a number

:04:23.:04:27.

for it to be motorists deliberately flouting the bus lane regulations.

:04:28.:04:33.

To be fair, Birmingham City Council say they think the signage

:04:34.:04:36.

They're obviously making a lot money.

:04:37.:04:44.

They are perhaps too busy counting the money as opposed to trying

:04:45.:04:47.

Bus lanes presumably do a good job, don't they?

:04:48.:04:51.

Bus lanes are there for a reason, obviously.

:04:52.:04:54.

Motorists shouldn't drive in them because they are there to make sure

:04:55.:04:57.

the buses run on time and they've got a clear run at the traffic.

:04:58.:05:00.

Interestingly, in Liverpool they had a trial where they did away

:05:01.:05:03.

with 26 other bus lanes and after a while they

:05:04.:05:10.

And actually found the traffic moved perfectly well and the buses

:05:11.:05:14.

Obviously it's the latest kind of cash bonanza, if you like.

:05:15.:05:18.

We've got parking charges, councils seem to do very well at all.

:05:19.:05:28.

Bus lanes shouldn't be about raising money,

:05:29.:05:31.

they should be about making sure people don't drive at them.

:05:32.:05:34.

But perhaps we need to look at where the cameras are positioned.

:05:35.:05:37.

Sometimes the cameras may be positioned at the very

:05:38.:05:39.

start of the bus lane, so if you make an honest mistake

:05:40.:05:42.

it's too late by the time you realise it and correct yourself.

:05:43.:05:44.

The councils are obviously making an enormous amount of money

:05:45.:05:47.

In their defence, they do say that that money is ploughed back

:05:48.:05:51.

into transportation of one sort or another.

:05:52.:05:53.

It's good to hear that, but the RAC carried out research

:05:54.:05:57.

for its annual report on motoring said that the state

:05:58.:06:02.

of the roads, some of the worst condition we have seen.

:06:03.:06:05.

Motorists are constantly fed up with pothole ridden roads

:06:06.:06:07.

and we are constantly found to be faced with reporting them or just

:06:08.:06:10.

And we'll bring you some of the many comments we've

:06:11.:06:15.

received on this subject, later in the programme.

:06:16.:06:19.

Anorexia is responsible for more deaths than any other

:06:20.:06:22.

mental health condition, but there's concern that GPs aren't

:06:23.:06:25.

recognising it and youngsters aren't getting the treatment they need.

:06:26.:06:29.

Claire McKenzie claims that she is currently

:06:30.:06:32.

receiving no NHS treatment at all and it's her family

:06:33.:06:34.

Here's our Health Correspondent, Michele Paduano.

:06:35.:06:40.

At this point now, I'm more worried about dying.

:06:41.:06:43.

Claire's in her final year at university.

:06:44.:06:50.

In the future, she wants to help children with mental health

:06:51.:06:54.

problems, and she wants GPs to have better training because of her own

:06:55.:06:57.

They said, "Oh, well, bring her to McDonald's

:06:58.:07:04.

because all kids love McDonald's, I'm sure she'll eat there."

:07:05.:07:07.

In the meantime, I was just getting more and more ill,

:07:08.:07:10.

Week after week, I was going back and they just kept

:07:11.:07:14.

It was her teachers who realised how ill she was.

:07:15.:07:18.

When I go to the hospital, they took my blood sugar

:07:19.:07:25.

levels and it was like, I think it was one or something,

:07:26.:07:28.

and they said I was going to go into a coma.

:07:29.:07:31.

So they quickly put me on drips and tubes and things like that.

:07:32.:07:35.

With the help of her family, she is improving.

:07:36.:07:41.

But she only eats the same things at the same time every day

:07:42.:07:45.

you just don't know what to do next or what's going to come next.

:07:46.:07:54.

And you don't know where to go to get help.

:07:55.:07:57.

If I was to be at home on my own, I wouldn't eat it.

:07:58.:08:01.

I would just pretend that I've had it and I haven't.

:08:02.:08:03.

Even though in your head, you know this is wrong,

:08:04.:08:08.

you would still not be able to deal with it on your own, you need

:08:09.:08:11.

I can't allow myself to do it, I need somebody to tell me

:08:12.:08:17.

that I've got to eat, and then it makes the guilt a bit

:08:18.:08:20.

Specialist beds in hospitals are in short supply.

:08:21.:08:23.

Treatment is intensive and expensive.

:08:24.:08:25.

I was told one organisation yesterday had one bed in Glasgow.

:08:26.:08:29.

Experts say the government has recognised that GPs are under

:08:30.:08:32.

pressure and says a report into eating disorders is out in May.

:08:33.:08:37.

Think it is a significant problem for all communities,

:08:38.:08:40.

and the draft report does highlight that not only general practitioners

:08:41.:08:43.

but also paediatricians and mental health services need to work

:08:44.:08:46.

together in order to manage this problem.

:08:47.:08:49.

She no longer wqualifies for children's services and says

:08:50.:08:53.

They said I would have to go straight to hospital,

:08:54.:08:58.

and there was no way I was going to go back to hospital.

:08:59.:09:01.

So I've just been kind of left on my own.

:09:02.:09:08.

Staffordshire Police must do more to oversee the quality

:09:09.:09:10.

of its investigations, according to the Police watchdog.

:09:11.:09:14.

HMIC says the force 'requires improvement' but praised the way

:09:15.:09:16.

Meanwhile, inspections found Gloucestershire Police also 'require

:09:17.:09:23.

improvement' but West Midlands, Warwickshire and West Mercia

:09:36.:09:38.

who was from Stafford, opened today at the Black

Drivers in Birmingham and Wolverhampton have been fined

:10:04.:10:08.

more than almost any others in the country for entering bus

:10:09.:10:11.

And this is a topic that's certainly sent our social media into meltdown:

:10:12.:10:19.

Jonty Edward from Coventry says his sat nav took him up a road

:10:20.:10:23.

with no markings or signs to say it was a bus lane.

:10:24.:10:26.

The next thing he knew a ?40 fine came his way!

:10:27.:10:29.

Amy Rennocks was caught in Wolverhampton.

:10:30.:10:33.

She says "The road was blocked off with ply board and the only route

:10:34.:10:36.

Wendy Bayliss says "It's confusing in Coventry as they've suspended

:10:37.:10:41.

Once you've sussed out which they are, it does

:10:42.:10:48.

But the last word, for now, goes to Jen Walker who says

:10:49.:10:58.

"Don't drive in a bus lane unless the active times are clearly

Rugby competition, starting in September, and watch the England

:16:42.:16:46.

rugby's governing body says will be a world-class domestic tournament.

:16:47.:16:50.

Thus was a real blow. Let us find out what it means to the club. How

:16:51.:16:58.

big a blow has this been? Firstly, what the treble trying to do is

:16:59.:17:01.

fantastic. As a club, we have worked so hard, -- the RFU. To have it

:17:02.:17:10.

pulled away from us like this is devastating, as you can imagine. We

:17:11.:17:15.

feel that we are there, we are the best club in the country at the

:17:16.:17:19.

minute. We have two fantastic squad that are doing exceptionally well.

:17:20.:17:23.

And under 18 squad going into cup final at the weekend, so we are

:17:24.:17:27.

immensely proud of where we are the moment about the season ahead holds

:17:28.:17:34.

for us. What do think there could be a rethink? I hope so. I think it is

:17:35.:17:39.

deserved. I think we deserve it. But it's out of our hands. Joining me is

Justine Henin Gus. We have all worked so hard this year. And put so

:17:51.:17:57.

much into our rugby. For the bigger picture, RFU investing in women's

rugby is fantastic, but it's a real blow for Lichfield. Your back over

tournament? Our second team are playing more to go away, a big match

:18:10.:18:15.

for them. They are our top of the league clash, then Scotland next

:18:16.:18:21.

week and Ireland the after. The RFU in their statement said that they

:18:22.:18:25.

will work with clubs who have been unsuccessful in their initial

:18:26.:18:29.

application to help them with potentially future chance to get

:18:30.:18:33.

into the league. Also in rugby, in the premiership, the men's league,

:18:34.:18:37.

was still fighting hard to stay in the top flight.

:18:38.:18:47.

On Sunday Worcester host Bristol in the Premiership.

:18:48.:18:49.

They're the bottom two and the loser faces a real struggle

:18:50.:18:52.

None of those who wear their will forget it.

:18:53.:18:56.

Two years ago, Worcester were promoted in dramatic style,

:18:57.:18:58.

It was an incredible night, but now they must do it all again.

:18:59.:19:03.

It's very memorable for me, up against the odds and pulling it

:19:04.:19:06.

You look back at it fondly, but it's all about the here and now.

:19:07.:19:13.

The squads of both teams have evolved in the two years since,

:19:14.:19:16.

Worcester and Bristol want to play in the premiership.

:19:17.:19:22.

It's why the South African coach Gary Gold has been

:19:23.:19:24.

He has simple job: keep Worcester in the top-flight.1 And he wants

:19:25.:19:31.

I feel we've got a responsibility to them.

:19:32.:19:35.

They pay their hard earned money to come and support the team,

:19:36.:19:38.

I want them to see a team who are massively passionate about the club

:19:39.:19:44.

And I really want us to come out and prove that to them this weekend.

:19:45.:19:50.

Bristol might be bottom but they're improving as shown by last

:19:51.:19:56.

Worcester are now just two points above them.

:19:57.:20:00.

The players know there is a lot at stake.

:20:01.:20:02.

Relegation will see budgets cut, players moved on,

:20:03.:20:04.

But Sunday's Sixways sell-out is also an occasion to be savoured.

:20:05.:20:12.

Games like this is why we play the game.

:20:13.:20:14.

Obviously the pressure mounts as we go on, but moments like this,

:20:15.:20:18.

They'll be heading to Sixways in great numbers again on Sunday.

:20:19.:20:25.

But only the Worcester fans will hoping for the same result.

:20:26.:20:39.

Big weekend for Worcester. At Lichfield, they are preparing for

:20:40.:20:45.

the final game of the season against Richmond, which could see them

:20:46.:20:48.

finishing top of the regular season and going to the play-offs as number

:20:49.:20:54.

one seed. Coventry City now know who they will play in the final of the

:20:55.:21:00.

Czech trade trophy. Meet Oxford United.

:21:01.:21:05.

Before we leave sport, work's nearing completion

:21:06.:21:09.

McCoy - which will be unveiled during the Cheltenham Festival

:21:10.:21:13.

It'll be seen by the public on the opening day of

:21:14.:21:18.

The 20 times former champion is arguably the greatest jockey that

:21:19.:21:22.

Spiced lamb with chick peas followed by a frangipane

:21:23.:21:29.

made from mashed potato, not my words - obviously,

:21:30.:21:31.

It was our region's entry in the national School Chef

:21:32.:21:35.

of the Year competition, which was held at

:21:36.:21:37.

It was created by Jose Kochakkadan, who's a former professional chef.

:21:38.:21:43.

He joined Marston Green Infants Academy in Birmingham

:21:44.:21:45.

to work as a school cook, so he could spend more time

:21:46.:21:48.

School dinners grown up and gone gourmet.

:21:49.:21:59.

But Jose from Solihull has all the credentials to become

:22:00.:22:02.

For the past two years, he's been feeding 300 four

:22:03.:22:07.

to seven-year-olds at this academy in Birmingham, and he has

:22:08.:22:11.

I would say, if you can please children, you can please

:22:12.:22:17.

They are hard, it's very hard to make them try foods.

:22:18.:22:26.

So we have to encourage them how to be healthy.

:22:27.:22:29.

Ten chefs from across the UK are competing.

:22:30.:22:39.

It's Jose's second time representing the West Midlands.

:22:40.:22:41.

They have just 90 minutes to prepare a main course and a desert

:22:42.:22:47.

suitable for 11-year-olds, all within the tiny budget

:22:48.:22:49.

Jose's entry is spicy lamb with chickpeas and mango rice,

:22:50.:23:11.

followed by a mango frangipane made not of almonds, but mashed potato.

:23:12.:23:14.

Children's palates are said to be more sophisticated these days.

:23:15.:23:16.

In school dinners, I like the pizza and the spaghetti Bolognese.

:23:17.:23:20.

At school, I like the pizzas and spaghetti Bolognese as well.

:23:21.:23:22.

Out of school, I like steak and fish and chips.

:23:23.:23:25.

15 minutes to go, and there's a simmering tension

:23:26.:23:27.

So I'm going to be starting the plating.

:23:28.:23:35.

According to the plan, so far so good.

:23:36.:23:37.

School dinners were never like this in my day.

:23:38.:23:39.

This is Jose's finished school dinner.

:23:40.:23:45.

And so too was the mashed potato frangipane.

:23:46.:24:06.

Children all over the region have been going to school

:24:07.:24:13.

as their favourite storybook characters today.

:24:14.:24:14.

World Book Day is now in its 20th year and, as ever,

:24:15.:24:17.

there were some brilliant costumes on show.

:24:18.:24:19.

Here are just a few for you to enjoy.

:24:20.:24:25.

Some fantastic costumes there and you can see lots more

:24:26.:24:50.

Thanks to all of you who posted pictures.

:24:51.:24:54.

Even though the official start of spring isn't until later this month,

:24:55.:25:07.

we have already seen signs of it. We have had carpets of spring bulbs

:25:08.:25:10.

breaking through. There was cloud across the northern half of the

:25:11.:25:14.

region this morning, which actually reduced the covering of snow. As the

:25:15.:25:19.

haze slowly lifted, we saw some glorious sunshine breaking through

:25:20.:25:22.

across a large amount of the region. Blue skies and sunshine for the rest

:25:23.:25:28.

of the day. It was quite gusty in Hereford. We saw gusts of 44 mph.

:25:29.:25:34.

Things are changing now as we head into tonight. We have a band of rain

:25:35.:25:38.

coming from the south, producing a more mobile and settled picture as

:25:39.:25:42.

we go into the weekend, low pressure dominating. The weekend, best they

:25:43.:25:48.

will be Saturday. I can't call it the best day, but if you're looking

:25:49.:25:52.

to plan any outdoor events, the best bet will be Saturday. That is the

:25:53.:25:56.

chance of seeing drier weather, but very wet on Sunday. This evening, we

:25:57.:26:01.

have some splinter showers ahead of the main band arriving later

:26:02.:26:07.

tonight. A lot of cloud gathering, keeping temperatures up to four five

:26:08.:26:11.

Celsius. Unlike other nights this week, not as cold. The winds will

:26:12.:26:15.

gradually ease into the morning tomorrow, and the rain starts to

:26:16.:26:19.

cross, moving from south to north, producing heavy bursts in places.

:26:20.:26:23.

Drying up through the central belt in the afternoon. That'll perk up

:26:24.:26:26.

into tomorrow evening once again. Temperatures range from seven in the

:26:27.:26:33.

North to ten in the south, with lighter south-easterly winds.

:26:34.:26:37.

Tomorrow evening, the rain peps up, a fairly wet night before the rain

:26:38.:26:41.

gradually dies away., producing some misty, murky conditions into the

:26:42.:26:46.

morning on Saturday. Saturday is largely dry, with heavy rain on

:26:47.:26:48.

Sunday. It does turn colder by then. I'll be back at 22.30

:26:49.:26:52.

with your late update. WHISTLING: Blue Danube
