Good evening. Welcome to NorthWest Tonight with Roger Johnson and | :00:05. | :00:08. | |
Annabel Tiffin. Our top story... Forgiven by his victim, but not the | :00:08. | :00:12. | |
law - a man is jailed indefinitely for an unprovoked knife attack on a | :00:12. | :00:17. | |
pensioner. I said it and I meant it, I forgive | :00:17. | :00:21. | |
him. I won't forget. David Walters stabbed Maria | :00:21. | :00:24. | |
Morrison six times in a frenzied attack after rowing with his | :00:24. | :00:26. | |
girlfriend. Also tonight... 3D theatre - the country's first | :00:26. | :00:28. | |
operation using new visual technology was done in Manchester | :00:28. | :00:36. | |
today. A wide Adi travelling at high speed | :00:36. | :00:39. | |
along Chester Road, he has moved across the road. | :00:39. | :00:42. | |
Deadly roads - police plan a crack down after traffic deaths rise | :00:42. | :00:46. | |
sharply in Greater Manchester. And may the financial force be with | :00:46. | :00:49. | |
you - the sci-fi film makers raising funds to finish their | :00:49. | :00:59. | |
:00:59. | :01:05. | ||
latest feature. Also tonight, Stuart Flinders has | :01:05. | :01:09. | |
all the sports news live from Ewood Park ahead of a big night in the | :01:09. | :01:15. | |
Premier League. Yes, it's all about pressure | :01:15. | :01:23. | |
tonight. There is pressure on Manchester United, pressure on | :01:23. | :01:27. | |
Blackburn. 10 Lee Byrne -- is Kenny Dalglish under pressure at | :01:27. | :01:31. | |
Liverpool? Join me later. Maria Morrison was simply waiting | :01:31. | :01:34. | |
for a bus when she became the victim of a frenzied knife attack. | :01:34. | :01:37. | |
The 75-year-old was stabbed six times by David Walters who screamed | :01:37. | :01:42. | |
at her, "Die, die!" A judge today praised the bravery and indomitable | :01:43. | :01:46. | |
spirit of the pensioner as he jailed her attacker indefinitely. | :01:46. | :01:50. | |
But for Maria, the terror of the attack just won't go away. Stuart | :01:50. | :01:54. | |
Politt reports. Maria Morrison went out to catch | :01:54. | :02:04. | |
her normal bus. Minutes later, she was fighting for her life. I was | :02:04. | :02:14. | |
:02:14. | :02:14. | ||
sitting at the. -- at the bus stop. He smashed and my face and I | :02:14. | :02:18. | |
covered my face with my hand. needed plastic surgery after | :02:18. | :02:21. | |
injuries to her lip, hand, shoulder, elbow and abdomen. The attacker | :02:21. | :02:24. | |
David Walters later told his girlfriend on Facebook that he had | :02:24. | :02:26. | |
committed a murder. He hadn't, thanks mainly to Mrs Morrison's | :02:26. | :02:32. | |
bravery, but she's still paying the price for what happened. | :02:32. | :02:38. | |
independence is gone. I can't open a tin, anything. I can be given to | :02:38. | :02:41. | |
joke, I can't do washing up or anything. I can't even have a bath | :02:41. | :02:50. | |
on my own. What it never it -- what has never explained why he attacked | :02:50. | :02:54. | |
Mrs Morrison. It was this CCTV footage taken moments before the | :02:54. | :02:56. | |
attack which caught Walters. An officer watching the camera noticed | :02:56. | :02:59. | |
Walters spat on the ground just before he attacked Mrs Morrison | :02:59. | :03:02. | |
beyond the view of the cameras. The officer radioed colleagues who came | :03:02. | :03:05. | |
here and retrieved a sample of the spit. Police matched it to Walters' | :03:05. | :03:08. | |
DNA and he was arrested. Today, the 23-year-old was sentenced to a | :03:08. | :03:12. | |
minimum of seven years in jail, but will only be released when he is no | :03:12. | :03:15. | |
longer considered a danger to the public. Walters' family left court | :03:15. | :03:18. | |
with their heads covered and bowed. In contrast the judge, Andrew | :03:18. | :03:21. | |
Gilbart, said he had the highest admiration for how Mrs Morrison had | :03:21. | :03:23. | |
acted. A devout Catholic, she has forgiven her attacker. It is hard | :03:24. | :03:30. | |
to say. I forgive him, I said did and I made that. I will not forget | :03:30. | :03:34. | |
what has gone on. Although the physical scars are beginning to | :03:34. | :03:41. | |
fade, Mrs Morrison knows the mental ones will take much longer. | :03:42. | :03:44. | |
The country's first fully 3D keyhole surgery has taken place at | :03:44. | :03:50. | |
a North West hospital. Using special glasses and state-of-the- | :03:50. | :03:52. | |
art cameras, surgeons at the Manchester Royal Infirmary carried | :03:52. | :03:57. | |
out the operation for prostate cancer. They say the new techniques | :03:57. | :04:04. | |
give them more control. Other hospitals are said to be watching | :04:04. | :04:11. | |
the results with interest. The surgical team here are for the | :04:11. | :04:14. | |
first time using 3D technology and robotics to carry out keyhole | :04:14. | :04:17. | |
surgery. The operation is performed as normal, but the 3D cameras and | :04:17. | :04:20. | |
glasses give the surgeons and other staff here a clearer way of seeing | :04:20. | :04:30. | |
:04:30. | :04:31. | ||
inside the body. With the rotation of the instrument and depth | :04:31. | :04:35. | |
perception, they enhance each other to make surgery more precise and | :04:35. | :04:38. | |
that is what we are looking at today. The technology works using | :04:38. | :04:42. | |
two small cameras to get the 3D image in the same way that you get | :04:42. | :04:47. | |
a 3D picture for TV. It is really helping us with the depth, the | :04:47. | :04:49. | |
rotation of the instruments is really helping us in the right | :04:49. | :04:57. | |
position. The operation is being trialed in Manchester and if | :04:57. | :05:03. | |
successful could be rolled out across the country. It allows us | :05:03. | :05:06. | |
more accurately to preserve nerves, to preserve the muscles, to | :05:06. | :05:12. | |
hopefully get a better result with a better engine -- with a better | :05:12. | :05:19. | |
cancelled -- cancer result. It has to be affordable to the NHS. John | :05:19. | :05:22. | |
Green is the first to have this type of surgery for treatment for | :05:22. | :05:26. | |
cancer, which he was diagnosed with earlier this year. Something that | :05:26. | :05:29. | |
actually gives the surgeon more opportunities, because that of the | :05:29. | :05:39. | |
:05:39. | :05:44. | ||
3D camera, a-quiver with salt, then definitely. -- quicker as well, | :05:44. | :05:49. | |
then definitely. The hospital hopes to carry out more of these trial | :05:49. | :05:52. | |
procedures and the technology being used could help shape the future of | :05:52. | :05:54. | |
all different types of keyhole surgery. | :05:54. | :05:58. | |
A 12-year-old boy's been left trapped in his home after thieves | :05:58. | :06:00. | |
stole his wheelchair. Jake Wynne's specially adapted wheelchair was | :06:00. | :06:03. | |
taken from his front garden in Northwich on Saturday and it's not | :06:03. | :06:07. | |
been seen since. He has cerebral palsy and epilepsy and can only | :06:07. | :06:11. | |
walk a few yards unaided. His mother says his Easter holidays | :06:12. | :06:21. | |
:06:22. | :06:23. | ||
have been ruined and is appealing to those who stole it to return it. | :06:24. | :06:28. | |
It is disgusting for a disabled child. He does not look disabled | :06:28. | :06:32. | |
but he has cerebral palsy and epilepsy. Just leave it in the | :06:32. | :06:36. | |
garden, we just want his chair back. A 17-year-old who drowned off the | :06:36. | :06:41. | |
Blackpool coast on Friday has been named as David Sagar. He was swept | :06:42. | :06:45. | |
into the sea off the lower walk near Gynn Square at high tide. The | :06:45. | :06:48. | |
inshore lifeboat was launched, but the teenager was dead when he was | :06:48. | :06:51. | |
recovered from the water. Four men from Bolton, Rais Atcha, | :06:51. | :06:54. | |
Fahim Kola, Mohammed Asif Khan and Barber Khan, have been jailed for a | :06:54. | :06:58. | |
total of 42 years. The men pleaded guilty to their part in conspiring | :06:58. | :07:01. | |
to commit a series of armed robberies. This incredible CCTV | :07:01. | :07:04. | |
footage shows the moment the gang were caught robbing a jewellers in | :07:04. | :07:06. | |
Burnley during which �30,000 of traditional Asian jewellery was | :07:06. | :07:09. | |
stolen. An agreement has been reached to | :07:09. | :07:12. | |
finally transform Buxton's historic Crescent into a spa hotel. The | :07:12. | :07:15. | |
town's natural baths will form part of the �35 million revamp, creating | :07:15. | :07:20. | |
the first original spa in nearly a century. The Crescent and nearby | :07:20. | :07:29. | |
Pump Room will be refurbished to create a five star hotel. | :07:29. | :07:35. | |
It looks like it will be great. You will probably need a big wallets to | :07:35. | :07:37. | |
go there! If you're a regular motorist you'll | :07:37. | :07:39. | |
have seen examples of bad driving almost anywhere. Speeding, drivers | :07:39. | :07:43. | |
using mobile phones, not wearing seat belts etc. Well, the police | :07:43. | :07:46. | |
believe that's all contributing to an increase in the number of fatal | :07:46. | :07:48. | |
accidents on our roads. In Greater Manchester, they've just launched a | :07:49. | :07:51. | |
new campaign to target the drivers putting others at risk. Our Chief | :07:52. | :07:59. | |
Reporter Dave Guest has been out on patrol with the traffic police. | :07:59. | :08:04. | |
John Williams is on the lookout for speeding drivers and it is not long | :08:04. | :08:10. | |
before he spots one. A white Audi is travelling on long if the | :08:10. | :08:13. | |
Chester Road at half speed -- high speed. He has just moved across the | :08:13. | :08:20. | |
road. You were a bit quick. The need to be mindful. This driver | :08:20. | :08:25. | |
gets off with a warning. John can only hope in future he thinks more | :08:25. | :08:29. | |
carefully. John and his colleagues are currently mounting a major | :08:29. | :08:32. | |
campaign to try and cut the number of accidents and deaths in the | :08:32. | :08:36. | |
roads. The number of deaths on Greater Manchester's roads would up | :08:36. | :08:43. | |
work -- 42%. 75 people lost their lives in 2011, compared to 53 the | :08:43. | :08:48. | |
previous year. The police are at a loss to explain why, but they said | :08:48. | :08:52. | |
they are determined to make it -- make sure it does not happen again. | :08:52. | :08:55. | |
They campaign is to remind people of the dangers of speeding, using | :08:55. | :09:01. | |
mobiles and not win a seat belt. John has just spotted a driver not | :09:01. | :09:05. | |
wearing a seatbelt. He has made no attempt to put it on. We will have | :09:05. | :09:11. | |
a word with him. He was not happy. He did not understand why he had to | :09:12. | :09:16. | |
wear a seatbelt. I pointed out we are trying to reduce the people | :09:17. | :09:25. | |
injured on the roads. He was given a fixed penalty. | :09:25. | :09:30. | |
Camera cars like this aim to cash drivers wearing seatbelts or using | :09:30. | :09:38. | |
mobile phones while striving. -- catch drivers not wearing seatbelts. | :09:38. | :09:42. | |
The police said this is not about hassling innocent motorists but | :09:42. | :09:47. | |
educating them and maybe even saving their lives. | :09:47. | :09:51. | |
A Lymm rugby union player who broke his neck during a match at the end | :09:51. | :09:54. | |
of February says he hopes his ordeal won't put others off the | :09:54. | :09:57. | |
sport. Alex Bennett, a former England and Saracens player, | :09:57. | :09:59. | |
underwent eight hours of surgery after clashing heads during the | :09:59. | :10:04. | |
game against Sandal. He's still receiving treatment and says he's | :10:04. | :10:14. | |
:10:14. | :10:16. | ||
determined to walk again. Any movement, however small, is a | :10:16. | :10:19. | |
sign of the progress that Alex Bennett is making. He was left with | :10:19. | :10:25. | |
an injured spine after a clash of heads in a game at the end of | :10:25. | :10:31. | |
February. I knew I was going to get het just as I got the ball, and I | :10:31. | :10:36. | |
did. I think my head went down and back and then I was lying on the | :10:36. | :10:44. | |
floor, physically not being able to feel anything below my neck. | :10:44. | :10:49. | |
former rugby player had eight hours of emergency surgery. According to | :10:49. | :10:54. | |
the RFU, last season, there were 746 injuries that Premiership clubs, | :10:54. | :10:58. | |
a 16% increase on the previous year. That, he said, should not put | :10:58. | :11:05. | |
anyone off, including his rugby- playing son. It is his choice and I | :11:05. | :11:10. | |
hope he wants to stay in the game. His family say the support of the | :11:10. | :11:14. | |
club and the sport has given them stride. They're so much out of his | :11:14. | :11:24. | |
control but the way he approaches everything just inspires us all. | :11:24. | :11:27. | |
genuinely believe I will walk again and I will take the advice of | :11:27. | :11:37. | |
everybody here and work as hard as I can. | :11:37. | :11:41. | |
It goes without saying that we wish Alex all the best. | :11:41. | :11:42. | |
Still to come on North West Tonight... | :11:42. | :11:45. | |
Remembering Titanic - a survivor's descendents prepare to visit the | :11:45. | :11:50. | |
spot where she sank. And Kenny's crisis - Liverpool lose | :11:50. | :12:00. | |
:12:00. | :12:04. | ||
yet again and their keeper gets banned for the FA Cup semi-final. | :12:04. | :12:07. | |
Sport coming up in a moment. The Cheshire descendents of a man | :12:07. | :12:10. | |
who survived the sinking of the Titainic are retracing the voyage | :12:10. | :12:12. | |
to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the disaster. | :12:12. | :12:16. | |
William Wright was one of the 705 survivors. Now, three of his great- | :12:16. | :12:21. | |
granddaughters are sailing to the exact spot for a memorial service. | :12:21. | :12:31. | |
:12:31. | :12:36. | ||
Kate Simms went to meet them. A log book and the Telegraph, | :12:36. | :12:38. | |
William Wright's great granddaughters know little about | :12:38. | :12:45. | |
him save for his role on what was the most infamous of ships. As far | :12:45. | :12:49. | |
as we know, he was the wish you would to the stewards. We thought | :12:49. | :12:57. | |
he was the toilet cleaner but we don't know. What happened on the | :12:57. | :13:02. | |
night of April 1519 12 has been reinterpreted many times. -- kibble | :13:02. | :13:08. | |
15, 1912. William Wright's testimony has been recorded. It was, | :13:08. | :13:13. | |
he said, the blackest of nights. said it was a very cold night, like | :13:13. | :13:20. | |
being in an iceberg. He also described here -- hearing the cries | :13:20. | :13:25. | |
of the other passengers in the seat and that he never wished to go | :13:25. | :13:30. | |
through that again. Now armed with the two scraps they have of their | :13:30. | :13:33. | |
great-grandfather's life, the sisters will embark on their own | :13:34. | :13:38. | |
voyage aboard a modern day cruise liner with other descendants of the | :13:38. | :13:48. | |
:13:48. | :13:49. | ||
Titanic's crew and passengers. will lay everything arrests. | :13:49. | :13:54. | |
will be a complete circle for us, won't it? It will finish her | :13:54. | :13:58. | |
journey. The sisters have no picture of their great-grandfather. | :13:58. | :14:02. | |
They are hoping to meet someone who may have them put a face to the | :14:02. | :14:12. | |
:14:12. | :14:12. | ||
name they know so well. Loads more about the Titanic earned its | :14:12. | :14:17. | |
anniversary on North West Tonight in the coming weeks. If you want is | :14:17. | :14:23. | |
the more, you can go to the BBC News side. | :14:23. | :14:29. | |
There is loads of interesting stuff on there. | :14:29. | :14:32. | |
Now, sport, and Manchester City are in danger of throwing away their | :14:32. | :14:35. | |
chance of winning the Premier League title. Manchester United | :14:35. | :14:38. | |
could take advantage tonight. They play Blackburn at Ewood park. | :14:38. | :14:48. | |
:14:48. | :14:53. | ||
Stuart Flinders is there. A big night for both teams? | :14:53. | :14:56. | |
Blackburn are under pressure with Bolton, Wigan and QPR winning at | :14:56. | :15:02. | |
the bottom of the league. But talk about pressure, what about | :15:02. | :15:07. | |
Manchester City? 3-1 down at home to Sunderland, they win a free kick | :15:07. | :15:10. | |
and Mario Balotelli and Aleksander Kolarov have a very public argument | :15:10. | :15:13. | |
over who should take it. Balotelli made up for it by scoring two goals | :15:14. | :15:16. | |
in a three-three draw. But Roberto Mancini told the BBC afterwards he | :15:17. | :15:25. | |
can't trust Balotelli. I wonder if he will still be there next season. | :15:25. | :15:27. | |
Advantage Manchester United, but Alex Ferguson's expecting a tough | :15:27. | :15:33. | |
game here tonight. The game with Blackburn over the years has always | :15:33. | :15:42. | |
been a difficult match for the local derby feeling at times it's a | :15:42. | :15:50. | |
bit feisty. -- get a bit feisty. Last season we were lucky enough to | :15:50. | :15:57. | |
come back and when. We expect a very difficult game. | :15:57. | :16:00. | |
Here's a sobering thought - if the Premier League season had started | :16:00. | :16:06. | |
on January 1st, Liverpool would be in the bottom three. Yesterday's | :16:06. | :16:09. | |
defeat at Newcastle was the Reds' 6th in seven Premier League matches, | :16:09. | :16:12. | |
with the glory of last months Carling Cup win a fast fading | :16:12. | :16:22. | |
memory. Where now for Liverpool? Another defeat to confirm the | :16:22. | :16:25. | |
club's worst league run since 1954. All in all, a day to forget for | :16:25. | :16:27. | |
Kenny Dalglish on Tyneside. Not surprisingly, today's newspapers | :16:27. | :16:30. | |
wouldn't have made the most pleasant reading for the club or | :16:30. | :16:34. | |
its fans. Rarely has a managerial appointment seemed to fit the bill | :16:34. | :16:38. | |
as much as Kenny Dalglish's return last year did. Unpopular manager | :16:38. | :16:43. | |
Roy Hodgson out, club legend in, feel-good factor back. Or at least | :16:43. | :16:53. | |
:16:53. | :16:55. | ||
it was. The optimism is starting to wane. They started well enough | :16:55. | :16:58. | |
yesterday but against his old club, Andy Carroll blew the chance to | :16:58. | :17:01. | |
make it 1-0, and was booked for diving. He could have put us in | :17:01. | :17:05. | |
front but he made a stupid mistake. Instead it was Papis Cisse who | :17:05. | :17:09. | |
opened the scoring, and then made it two in the second half, before | :17:09. | :17:12. | |
Carroll made clear to his Manager just how he felt about being | :17:12. | :17:20. | |
substituted. He has disappeared straight down the tunnel... That | :17:20. | :17:23. | |
was totally disrespectful. To make things even worse, Liverpool will | :17:23. | :17:26. | |
be without Goalkeeper Pepe Reina for the all Merseyside FA Cup semi | :17:26. | :17:29. | |
final against Everton, after reacting to Newcastle's James Perch. | :17:29. | :17:31. | |
For the moment at least, King Kenny's third coming isn't going to | :17:31. | :17:39. | |
plan. There is no point in feeling sorry for ourselves. We have got to | :17:39. | :17:45. | |
stick together. We trust that we have won to get it right and we | :17:45. | :17:52. | |
have got a better chance. Just wait for Kenny and he would get it right. | :17:52. | :17:56. | |
I think they are trying to get rid of him. One thing's certain, though | :17:56. | :18:01. | |
- his side needs to rediscover the winning feeling quickly. | :18:01. | :18:04. | |
Worrying times for Liverpool. We've talked about what tonight's | :18:04. | :18:07. | |
game here means to United, but the last time these two teams met, | :18:07. | :18:16. | |
Blackburn were the winners and it definitely gave them a lift. | :18:16. | :18:19. | |
They've lost just four of their last ten Premier League games and | :18:19. | :18:28. | |
now sit just above the relegation zone. With the exception of the | :18:28. | :18:35. | |
Bolton game and the Sunderland game, we are positive and we are playing | :18:35. | :18:42. | |
good stuff and we have to give back a matter of a form. -- on that type | :18:42. | :18:44. | |
of form. Results elsewhere at the weekend | :18:44. | :18:47. | |
could hardly have been worse for Blackburn. Wins for both Bolton and | :18:47. | :18:50. | |
Wigan, but both teams made heavy Wigan, but both teams made heavy | :18:50. | :18:59. | |
weather of it. What a save! Three wins on the trot | :18:59. | :19:03. | |
for the trotters but for an hour, the other Wanderers were well on | :19:03. | :19:09. | |
top. Alton Road this storm and came back from one Doran with three | :19:09. | :19:18. | |
goals in a frenetic final half-hour to win. -- Bolton stormed back. | :19:18. | :19:22. | |
Wigan have scored fewer goals at home than any other Premier League | :19:22. | :19:31. | |
side and you could see why against Stoke. They got it right eventually, | :19:31. | :19:35. | |
winning 2-0. They are a point behind Bolton. One place you will | :19:35. | :19:42. | |
not find sympathy for Liverpool's problems is Goodison Park. Just two | :19:42. | :19:46. | |
defeats in their last 19 and this win over West Brom puts them in 7th | :19:46. | :19:52. | |
above Liverpool. Eddie Howe reckons his team have the best strikers in | :19:52. | :19:55. | |
the Championship and who is arguing after a day put five past | :19:55. | :20:02. | |
Portsmouth? There was still time for a hat-trick at 53 minutes. The | :20:02. | :20:05. | |
Preston chairman Peter Ridsdale has confirmed his team's miner and | :20:05. | :20:11. | |
tactics were leaked to the opposition by his own players | :20:11. | :20:16. | |
before the match in Sheffield -- against Sheffield Wednesday and he | :20:16. | :20:25. | |
says it came without Mannus. It is no way to call forward. | :20:25. | :20:31. | |
Very secured a win against Tranmere. Berry and I have points -- five | :20:31. | :20:35. | |
points above the relegation zone. Well done to Blackpool as well - 3- | :20:35. | :20:44. | |
0 winners away to Championship leaders, Southampton. More on that | :20:44. | :20:47. | |
in Late Kick Off tonight. And the show also celebrates Sir Tom | :20:47. | :20:50. | |
Finney's 90th birthday this week. David Moyes and Jimmy Armfield join | :20:50. | :20:53. | |
Tony to talk about their friendship with the Preston legend. | :20:53. | :20:59. | |
When I got the job, he used to come in on a Friday. He would comment | :20:59. | :21:03. | |
and talk about it and we would say, and talk about it and we would say, | :21:03. | :21:04. | |
I do not know what we are going to do today. Everything was really | :21:04. | :21:09. | |
basic. We would say, we think the full-back is going to shove a line- | :21:09. | :21:15. | |
up today. He say -- he'd say, take him inside were on the outside if | :21:15. | :21:21. | |
he shows you too much on the inside. It was all incredibly simple. | :21:21. | :21:27. | |
Talking about Tom Finney. St Helens temporary coach and staff dark -- | :21:27. | :21:29. | |
Super League and St Helens' temporary coaching staff maintained | :21:29. | :21:32. | |
their 100% record with a 28-16 win at Warrington. Saints scored three | :21:32. | :21:35. | |
times in the opening 15 minutes to knock Wolves off top spot. | :21:35. | :21:38. | |
Elsewhere Wigan beat Salford and Widnes suffered a heavy defeat | :21:38. | :21:41. | |
against the Catalan Dragons. And you can see highlights from all | :21:41. | :21:51. | |
:21:51. | :21:51. | ||
of those matches on tonight's Super League Show at 11:35. The match | :21:51. | :21:58. | |
here restored the Iliad clock. It is going to be a cracker. -- the | :21:58. | :22:02. | |
match here start at 8 o'clock. Ever fancied seeing your name up in | :22:02. | :22:06. | |
lights at the cinema? Star of the latest science fiction blockbuster | :22:06. | :22:15. | |
perhaps? We can't promise that. No, we can't. But we can tell you how | :22:15. | :22:18. | |
you could see your name listed in movie credits. And for not much | :22:18. | :22:23. | |
more than the price of a few cinema tickets.. | :22:23. | :22:27. | |
Over there it's a $10 billion industry. So over here, how do | :22:27. | :22:34. | |
Jamie and Alan tap into a tiny slice of it? Here's the big idea. | :22:34. | :22:39. | |
We are to friends find to get tickets to see a one-off showing of | :22:39. | :22:49. | |

Attack by the suburban Mafia for their tickets. Chaos ensues. | :23:02. | :23:09. | |
they have a problem. We don't have any money. The answer? They are not | :23:09. | :23:14. | |
as foolish as they live. We are running a fund-raising campaign for | :23:14. | :23:19. | |
30 days. If you donate $10 or more you get a credit on the film, | :23:19. | :23:25. | |
special thanks at the end. They have raised �300 to fund his | :23:25. | :23:29. | |
trailer. They need just �9,000 more to make the movie. Every donation | :23:29. | :23:33. | |
they get goes straight into the film making pop. Everyone taking | :23:33. | :23:37. | |
part is doing so for free. Cinema- goers might not have heard of fraud | :23:37. | :23:43. | |
funding but they will soon. It is an American export making waves | :23:43. | :23:51. | |
here. Be it is growing in popularity and in America we have | :23:51. | :24:00. | |
seen raging thirst greater success. You are an unpaid cast member? | :24:00. | :24:04. | |
Unpaid, overworked and stressed out. I am very proud that they have got | :24:04. | :24:09. | |
off their backsides and gone out and done something and not just | :24:09. | :24:16. | |
waited around for somebody to come to them. The appeal funds -- for | :24:16. | :24:22. | |
funds starts this Friday. They have 30 days. Two boys with a dream to | :24:22. | :24:26. | |
make a movie but the clock is ticking... They have 30 days to | :24:26. | :24:36. | |
:24:36. | :24:40. | ||
make it happen. You get the idea! I know he will not be getting the | :24:40. | :24:50. | |
:24:50. | :24:54. | ||
job as a voice-over artist! In order to be in the film, you | :24:54. | :25:02. | |
need good weather. Is there snow Yes, there is some snow coming. It | :25:02. | :25:06. | |
is every parent's worst nightmare. Your kids will have heard there is | :25:06. | :25:11. | |
still in the forecast but it is not enough to make a difference. You | :25:11. | :25:18. | |
will have no fun out of this wintry weather. The forecast ahead, we | :25:18. | :25:22. | |
will seek much-needed rain at rather unwelcome wintry weather | :25:22. | :25:25. | |
moves through. The Met Office have issued a yellow warning that there | :25:25. | :25:32. | |
will be snow, mainly for the tops of the Pennines. I say mainly, | :25:32. | :25:36. | |
probably exclusively. The weather front opens the door for a much | :25:36. | :25:40. | |
colder air coming from the north- east. It eventually swings back to | :25:40. | :25:43. | |
a north-westerly, so that temperatures will start to rise | :25:43. | :25:48. | |
again into Thursday and Friday. The next couple of days you will not | :25:48. | :25:51. | |
enjoy, because this time last week we were seeing temperatures of 21, | :25:51. | :25:58. | |
tomorrow, about seven. Tonight, all about the cloud cover and showery | :25:58. | :26:04. | |
rain starts to head through. Over Cumbria and the Isle of Man, rain | :26:04. | :26:08. | |
bringing snow as we head through tomorrow. It only makes its | :26:09. | :26:13. | |
presence felt and the Isle of Man and parts of Cumbria towards dawn. | :26:13. | :26:19. | |
Bristly rain from time to time. Temperatures will that be a problem | :26:19. | :26:22. | |
tonight, six are a disgrace but tomorrow night and the night after, | :26:22. | :26:29. | |
we are back down to zero. The frost will return. Keep track of the rain | :26:29. | :26:34. | |
as it goes across the region. There could be a couple of centimetres of | :26:34. | :26:38. | |
snow and it could stick on a grand but for the rest of us, you can | :26:38. | :26:45. | |
clearly see it is just rain. Pulling away through the afternoon. | :26:45. | :26:49. | |
There could be one or two problems but it will not be widespread | :26:49. | :26:57. | |
enough for anyone to enjoy. The wind is strong and writing in cold | :26:57. | :27:04. | |
air. It is not a good day. Tomorrow night, that will be cold. Of the | :27:04. | :27:09. | |
next couple of days, wintry weather and by Thursday and Friday the | :27:09. | :27:16. | |
settled down again. That was my April Fool's joke on my | :27:16. | :27:26. | |
:27:26. | :27:27. | ||
kids, I told them it was snowing. You can get a bit of everything in | :27:27. | :27:32. |
