Tributes have been paid to the woman who was killed in Wolverhampton, | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
29-year-old Tahnie Martin, from Stafford, died | :00:00. | :00:16. | |
after she was hit by a piece of falling debris. | :00:17. | :00:19. | |
She worked at the University of Wolverhampton. | :00:20. | :00:20. | |
Colleagues described her as a "shining star" | :00:21. | :00:22. | |
At the spot where she collapsed, passers by genuinely shocked, | :00:23. | :00:27. | |
bewildered by the death so sudden and violent at a moment | :00:28. | :00:29. | |
so simple and commonplace, walking along a street with friends. | :00:30. | :00:32. | |
It is a shame for her and her family. | :00:33. | :00:37. | |
Just looking at her face, you could cry, couldn't you? | :00:38. | :00:43. | |
There is a lot of community spirit and more the Hampton and she is | :00:44. | :00:47. | |
You can see by all the flowers there. | :00:48. | :00:51. | |
29-year-old Tahnie Lee Martin from Stafford was killed instantly, | :00:52. | :00:54. | |
struck on the head by a wooden panel whipped from a building | :00:55. | :00:57. | |
Tahnie was on with two colleagues from the University | :00:58. | :01:08. | |
of Wolverhampton where she worked, they were treated in hospital | :01:09. | :01:10. | |
"She was one of our shining stars, a talented and creative marketing | :01:11. | :01:16. | |
professional with an enthusiasm and smile which were infectious." | :01:17. | :01:23. | |
In Smethwick destruction but relief no-one was hurt when a poplar tree | :01:24. | :01:26. | |
80-feet tall crashed into the roof of a leisure centre. | :01:27. | :01:29. | |
Six people using the gym at the time were at the other end of the room. | :01:30. | :01:33. | |
It is almost certain we're going to have to crane | :01:34. | :01:35. | |
that off and it'll take some time to sort that out. | :01:36. | :01:38. | |
We also had some trees come down in the borough yesterday alone, | :01:39. | :01:42. | |
so we will need to prioritise the ones that we need to sort first. | :01:43. | :01:59. | |
In Birmingham's jewellery quarter another casualty of Doris, | :02:00. | :02:01. | |
the top of this Victorian building caught on CCTV crashing | :02:02. | :02:03. | |
The second day of disruption for passengers on the train as works | :02:04. | :02:21. | |

'My role will be to stand up for Stoke on Trent". | :02:26. | :02:28. | |
The words of the city's newest MP Gareth Snell, after Labour | :02:29. | :02:30. | |
won the Stoke Central by-election, keeping | :02:31. | :02:32. | |
But the party's majority was halved, with UKIP coming in second place, | :02:33. | :02:36. | |
just 79 votes ahead of the Conservatives. | :02:37. | :02:46. | |
BBC Radio Stoke's political reporter, Emma Thomas, | :02:47. | :02:48. | |
So sighs of relief all round for Labour then? | :02:49. | :02:51. | |
Sighs of relief combined with tears and celebratory high fives among | :02:52. | :02:54. | |
the Labour team as the result was announced in the early | :02:55. | :02:56. | |
A different outcome would have seen 67 successive years of the party | :02:57. | :03:00. | |
But with a majority of 2,600, Gareth Snell will now | :03:01. | :03:04. | |
progress from his seat at Newcastle-under-Lyme Borough | :03:05. | :03:05. | |
He's explained the issues at the top of his agenda. | :03:06. | :03:09. | |
My priorities will be making sure we get a Brexit deal for Stoke | :03:10. | :03:12. | |
on Trent that we need and deserve by focusing on issues of education, | :03:13. | :03:15. | |
homes, we've got lots of brownfield sites on Stoke on Trent that | :03:16. | :03:35. | |
are ripe for development but also challenging | :03:36. | :03:37. | |
The Labour Leader Jeremy Corbyn was also present for a victory lap | :03:38. | :03:44. | |
But Stoke Central's result is not entirely easy reading | :03:45. | :03:48. | |
for Mr Corbyn with the majority just one tenth of that enjoyed | :03:49. | :03:50. | |
The UKIP leader Paul Nuttall must face tough questions too? | :03:51. | :03:54. | |
His plea to people to vote for "change" ended in second place | :03:55. | :03:58. | |
with just 79 more ballot papers than the Conservatives, | :03:59. | :04:00. | |
But he's insisting this is still a good outcome. | :04:01. | :04:03. | |
"We've cut their majority in half and we've unified the party | :04:04. | :04:05. | |
like never before and we'll go forward now. | :04:06. | :04:07. | |
UKIP's hopes had been founded on the expectation that in a city | :04:08. | :04:14. | |
where two thirds of people voted Leave in June's EU referendum, | :04:15. | :04:16. | |
Stoke Central could deliver a surprise break from political | :04:17. | :04:19. | |
Ukip they didn't come across as strong as the Labour candidate. | :04:20. | :04:32. | |
Stoke has always been a hot bed of Labour and if a dog had a red | :04:33. | :04:38. | |
The fact that Nuttall thought he could get in and then had | :04:39. | :04:48. | |
the cheek to say oh its only 72nd in our hot list. | :04:49. | :04:55. | |
I mean, how disrespectful of the local people can you be? | :04:56. | :04:58. | |
Because I didnt think any of them deserved it. | :04:59. | :05:01. | |
And that lady actually might speak for the majority | :05:02. | :05:03. | |
of the population in Stoke Central, as there was only a 38% | :05:04. | :05:06. | |
turnout, something Gareth Snell has already pledged to address in time | :05:07. | :05:09. | |
for the next general election in 2020. | :05:10. | :05:11. | |
Police have released shocking images of the moment a 17-year-old girl | :05:12. | :05:13. | |
was hit by a car and left with serious head and neck injuries. | :05:14. | :05:16. | |
She was walking down Bromsgrove street with her mother | :05:17. | :05:18. | |
in Birmingham, on the 28th of January last month, | :05:19. | :05:21. | |
when she was struck by a dark coloured BMW. | :05:22. | :05:23. | |
West Midlands Police have been given more time to question a man they've | :05:24. | :05:27. | |
The 26-year-old was detained at Heathrow Airport yesterday, | :05:28. | :05:30. | |
after arriving on a flight from Turkey. | :05:31. | :05:32. | |
They can hold him until Tuesday evening. | :05:33. | :05:34. | |
Two results to bring you in the Championship tonight. | :05:35. | :05:36. | |
In the local derby, Wolves lost 2-1 at home to Birmingham City. | :05:37. | :05:42. | |
Blues played most of the second half with ten men. | :05:43. | :05:46. | |
Birmingham City's first goal came after 27 minutes, | :05:47. | :05:48. | |
through a mistake from Wolves keeper - Maikel Kieftenbeld | :05:49. | :05:50. | |
They went 2-0 up within 5 minutes, former Wolves midfielder | :05:51. | :05:53. | |
David Davis scoring what proved to be the winner. | :05:54. | :05:55. | |
The home side pulled a goal back with seventeen minutes to go, | :05:56. | :06:00. | |
Burton Albion salvaged a point against second | :06:01. | :06:12. | |
from bottom Blackburn Rovers, Martin Sordell with | :06:13. | :06:14. | |
I'll leave you with the weather from Rebecca. | :06:15. | :06:19. | |
Good evening, well it was a pleasant start to the day considering | :06:20. | :06:34. | |
everything Boris throughout us. I'm afraid for the weekend however it's | :06:35. | :06:39. | |
a eternity wet and windy weather. It's to do with the weather systems | :06:40. | :06:44. | |
in the Atlantic. The first one, coming through tonight. Lifting | :06:45. | :06:48. | |
temperatures in the overnight period, but rain and a strong | :06:49. | :06:53. | |
breeze. We start the day between 5-7 C. For tomorrow, we've got this | :06:54. | :07:02. | |
rain band, really strong gusts of wind with a breezy day. Starting off | :07:03. | :07:07. | |
with rain trying to push in. That will work its way across the | :07:08. | :07:14. | |
country. It will be quite a great day as well. Temperatures ranging | :07:15. | :07:22. | |
from 9-10 Celsius. I will leave you with your outlook for the week. | :07:23. | :07:24. | |
few days it is that the stay miles. Outbreaks of rain at times | :07:25. | :07:26. | |
particularly as we head into Monday. A much calmer day today after the | :07:27. | :07:40. | |
nasty storm yesterday. Let's look at your pictures, tranquil from | :07:41. | :07:43. | |
Hampshire, on the edge of the new Forest. Nice cumulus clouds from | :07:44. | :07:49. | |
