Good evening. Welcome to NorthWest Tonight with Annabel Tiffin and | :00:00. | :00:07. | |
Graham Liver ` our top story. Jailed for attacking their sister's | :00:08. | :00:10. | |
gay partner, a judge condemns a kidnap attempt by a Muslim family in | :00:11. | :00:18. | |
Blackburn. The judge said it was a carefully planned ambush about power | :00:19. | :00:21. | |
and control. Also tonight: Anti`fracking activists allege | :00:22. | :00:23. | |
police brutality, but the police accuse protestors of intimidating | :00:24. | :00:35. | |
residents. Stop the police cuts urges Greater Manchester's crime | :00:36. | :00:38. | |
commission after a rise in thefts. Britain is building again, the news | :00:39. | :00:44. | |
for the guys at this required, back in business after losing their jobs | :00:45. | :00:48. | |
four years ago. Sky high ` the skier who learnt the | :00:49. | :00:52. | |
sport in Kendal is heading for the Olympics in Sochi. I just want to | :00:53. | :00:57. | |
come home crowd and do my country proud. | :00:58. | :01:12. | |
Six members of a Muslim family who attacked a gay woman because she was | :01:13. | :01:17. | |
in a relationship with her sister have been jailed for a total of 29 | :01:18. | :01:21. | |
years. Shocking footage shows the members of the family from black | :01:22. | :01:24. | |
than trying to kidnap their sister's gay partner. We will be | :01:25. | :01:29. | |
showing those images. We warn you some of them might find the picture | :01:30. | :01:33. | |
is distressing. Our chief reporter was at Preston Crown Court. The | :01:34. | :01:42. | |
judge said that this was a case of power and control, it was about | :01:43. | :01:47. | |
striking terror into the heart to control not just the body but also | :01:48. | :01:51. | |
the will. The claim could not accept the fact of a younger sister had | :01:52. | :01:55. | |
formed a same`sex relationship so they set out to wreck that | :01:56. | :01:59. | |
relationship using violence. The video images are shocking. Our | :02:00. | :02:05. | |
family vent their fury on their sister's gay partner. It is | :02:06. | :02:09. | |
happening in broad daylight in a Blackburn Street and has been caught | :02:10. | :02:14. | |
on camera. Their victim is told you have messed with the wrong Muslims, | :02:15. | :02:19. | |
we are going to kill you. It is vicious assault, born out of a | :02:20. | :02:25. | |
desire to make their sister adhere to their ways. The woman and attack | :02:26. | :02:31. | |
was Sarah Jane Harrison. She had begun a relationship with a Muslim | :02:32. | :02:38. | |
woman. But the Muslim woman was concerned about what a family would | :02:39. | :02:42. | |
think when her family realised she was gay. She moved out of the family | :02:43. | :02:45. | |
home and moved in with Miss Harrison, but her family were | :02:46. | :02:50. | |
determined to find her. Six of her siblings hatched a plot to beat and | :02:51. | :02:54. | |
then kidnap Miss Harrison in the hope of tracing their sister. They | :02:55. | :02:59. | |
ambushed her on the street in Blackburn as she was leaving work. | :03:00. | :03:01. | |
This camera caught what happened next. Three of the women are seen | :03:02. | :03:09. | |
kicking and punching Miss Harrison and trying to bundle her into a car. | :03:10. | :03:15. | |
Their brother is just off`camera. He is threatening a colleague of Miss | :03:16. | :03:19. | |
Harrison who were tried to help her. Another of the sisters, seen here | :03:20. | :03:24. | |
covering her face, encouraged the attack in a text. She told her | :03:25. | :03:26. | |
siblings: she admitted conspiracy to cause | :03:27. | :03:38. | |
actual bodily harm as did her sister. The judge said he was | :03:39. | :03:50. | |
satisfied his group had been motivated by their hostility towards | :03:51. | :03:53. | |
people of a lesbian sexual orientation. He jailed the brother | :03:54. | :04:00. | |
for six years, three of the women seen on the CCTV got five years and | :04:01. | :04:04. | |
four months each and the other two women got three and a half years | :04:05. | :04:09. | |
each. Well the case is likely to raise | :04:10. | :04:12. | |
concerns over the attitudes of some muslims towards homosexuality. | :04:13. | :04:15. | |
Earlier I spoke to Dr Usama Hasan, from the Quilliam Foundation ` a | :04:16. | :04:18. | |
think tank set up to challenge extremism and asked him his reaction | :04:19. | :04:27. | |
to the case. It's a hurricane in case, and I'm glad that the judge | :04:28. | :04:33. | |
has agreed that this is a premeditated hate crime `` a | :04:34. | :04:37. | |
horrifying case. It simply cannot be defended in UK law. We know that in | :04:38. | :04:41. | |
some countries, under sharia law ` homosexuality is seen as a crime, as | :04:42. | :04:50. | |
a sin. In other Muslim countries it isn't, and it is legal. How common | :04:51. | :04:54. | |
is it that it is thought of as a scene in this country? | :04:55. | :04:58. | |
Traditionally, taking a literal list view, like other faiths from the | :04:59. | :05:05. | |
days of Abraham, it would seem that sexuality is a scene. However this | :05:06. | :05:12. | |
is only one interpretation of the Faith and there is no such thing as | :05:13. | :05:18. | |
one definitive sharia law. In this country, we have our own rule of | :05:19. | :05:25. | |
law, it is this law that exists and not a sharia law instead or in | :05:26. | :05:32. | |
parallel to. Would you say we need to have caution here? This is one | :05:33. | :05:36. | |
criminal case and it shouldn't be thought that there are similar cases | :05:37. | :05:41. | |
going on throughout the country and the North West? Absolutely, this is | :05:42. | :05:48. | |
one case. A very upsetting case but it is certainly not reflective of | :05:49. | :05:52. | |
all 5 million as limbs in the UK. It is certainly not reflective of the | :05:53. | :05:57. | |
Muslim majority or minority countries in the world and it | :05:58. | :06:03. | |
shouldn't be seen as that. However, the debate that is going on between | :06:04. | :06:06. | |
religious rights and human rights is very important, also in Islam. The | :06:07. | :06:14. | |
role of sexual orientation has to come into this, to achieve a | :06:15. | :06:21. | |
solution to tyrants that would tackle some of these issues. `` | :06:22. | :06:31. | |
tyrants. `` tolerance. The Mental Health tribunal, which | :06:32. | :06:34. | |
last year refused Ian Brady permission to return to prison from | :06:35. | :06:37. | |
hospital, has today revealed the reasons for its decision. The | :06:38. | :06:40. | |
tribunal said the Moors Murderer was still mentally ill, and Ashworth | :06:41. | :06:43. | |
Hospital on Merseyside was the best place for him to be treated. It also | :06:44. | :06:47. | |
said his notoriety would put him at significant risk in prison. | :06:48. | :06:51. | |
The Ribble Valley MP Nigel Evans has denied allegations of sexual | :06:52. | :06:54. | |
offences against seven men. During a hearing at Preston Crown Court, he | :06:55. | :06:57. | |
pleaded not guilty to two counts of indecent assault, six of sexual | :06:58. | :07:02. | |
assault, and one of rape. Mr Evans is due to stand trial in March. It | :07:03. | :07:11. | |
has been two months since the anti`fracking camp was set up. But | :07:12. | :07:15. | |
in the last few days tensions appear to be growing between police and | :07:16. | :07:20. | |
protesters. One demonstrator is making claims as police brutality, | :07:21. | :07:25. | |
an allegation police deny. They accuse activists of deliberately | :07:26. | :07:29. | |
seeking confrontation. The protesters say that is untrue. | :07:30. | :07:36. | |
Another day, another protest at the Barton Moss camp. This is a | :07:37. | :07:41. | |
demonstration against fracking, but tensions are rising between | :07:42. | :07:43. | |
protestors and police. One demonstrator, known as Kris, posted | :07:44. | :07:47. | |
this video online. The pictures eventually go black but he goes on | :07:48. | :07:50. | |
to allege he was assaulted by officers. Police deny the claims but | :07:51. | :08:00. | |
have referred the matter to its professional standards branch as a | :08:01. | :08:03. | |
matter of course, despite the fact Kris hasn't lodged a complaint. I | :08:04. | :08:11. | |
checked with our professional standards Branch, no complaint had | :08:12. | :08:14. | |
been registered by the gentleman. We will look into the matter and we | :08:15. | :08:20. | |
will thoroughly investigated but honestly get that complaint in the | :08:21. | :08:24. | |
detail of the allegation, it is difficult to get to the bottom of | :08:25. | :08:32. | |
the facts. The protester posted this photo of himself online. He has been | :08:33. | :08:36. | |
charged with wilful obstruction and resisting arrest. But the claims and | :08:37. | :08:39. | |
counter claims on both sides go on. This week police said there had ben | :08:40. | :08:43. | |
a change in mood at the camp and a growing number of protestors were | :08:44. | :08:46. | |
arriving to antagonise officers and intimidate the local community. Some | :08:47. | :08:50. | |
residents have said they feel intimidated when they drive past the | :08:51. | :08:53. | |
tents. One agreed to speak to us, but said she didn't want to be | :08:54. | :09:00. | |
identified fear of reprisals. We can't get out of our access road. | :09:01. | :09:04. | |
Stopping us, blocking us, delaying us, and hurling abuse at us, dirty | :09:05. | :09:08. | |
looks. The protestors strongly deny claims. In a statement the Barton | :09:09. | :09:10. | |
Moss camp said: The daily stand`off between police | :09:11. | :09:25. | |
and the anti`fracking protestors has now becoming a war of words on both | :09:26. | :09:39. | |
sides. The Conservatives have selected a 26`year`old vicar to be | :09:40. | :09:44. | |
there candidate in the wood assure by`election, which will be held in | :09:45. | :09:49. | |
just under three weeks. Mr Critchlow says the Tories will do the most to | :09:50. | :09:54. | |
support the local economy. I am a vicar, I have a tight budget, a junk | :09:55. | :09:58. | |
family, money matters are important to me. The things the Conservatives | :09:59. | :10:06. | |
are strong on is the strong economy. They are building a strong | :10:07. | :10:10. | |
foundation. Cumbria's only Children's Hospice is | :10:11. | :10:13. | |
hoping it'll be able to support more families with the help of BBC Radio | :10:14. | :10:17. | |
Cumbria. Over the next year, the radio station's hoping to raise up | :10:18. | :10:20. | |
to ?80,000. Among other things, it'll pay for equipment which can be | :10:21. | :10:23. | |
taken to homes or community centres to create temporary sensory units. | :10:24. | :10:30. | |
We have a lovely sensory room here but we would like to be able to take | :10:31. | :10:35. | |
sensory equipment out, and hold sessions out in the community as | :10:36. | :10:41. | |
well, or in children's homes. The government is being urged to | :10:42. | :10:45. | |
reconsider police budget cuts which would lead to the loss of 300 | :10:46. | :10:48. | |
officers in greater Manchester. The commissioner says he is worried | :10:49. | :10:53. | |
because although crimes overall going down, specific offences like | :10:54. | :10:56. | |
burglary and theft are on the increase. Tony Lloyd believes he | :10:57. | :11:00. | |
thinks it is because of cuts in welfare benefit. | :11:01. | :11:08. | |
The figures cover the year between September 2012 and September 20 3. | :11:09. | :11:11. | |
Overall, crime in Greater Manchester was down year on year by 6.7%. But | :11:12. | :11:16. | |
domestic burglaries are up 2.1% Theft from the person's risen by | :11:17. | :11:20. | |
almost 19%. And sexual offences up by over 16% ` but it's thought that | :11:21. | :11:24. | |
might be the effect of the Jimmy Savile scandal. Worried that he s | :11:25. | :11:29. | |
losing 300 police this year, Greater Manchester's Police and Crime | :11:30. | :11:32. | |
Commissioner says more recent crime figures suggest the trend is | :11:33. | :11:39. | |
reversing. These suggest that there are people who feel themselves | :11:40. | :11:45. | |
abandoned in our society, with those benefits cuts, whether it is around | :11:46. | :11:49. | |
things like the bedroom tax, it is not a justification but it is a | :11:50. | :11:54. | |
recognition, if you put people down and down, sometimes they will find | :11:55. | :12:00. | |
ways of making their own decisions that we don't like. The government | :12:01. | :12:03. | |
has repeatedly said that crime has been consistently falling despite | :12:04. | :12:07. | |
the reduction in police numbers But on the day the figures show a slight | :12:08. | :12:11. | |
rise in burglaries in Greater Manchester, we hear the Chorlton | :12:12. | :12:14. | |
district has a higher rate of insurance claims for break`ins than | :12:15. | :12:17. | |
anywhere else. It has more than 42 claims per thousand people. Some | :12:18. | :12:20. | |
residents weren't surprised by the figures. We were burgled a couple of | :12:21. | :12:27. | |
months ago, they broke into the garden shed at the back, we lost two | :12:28. | :12:33. | |
bikes. We were burgled through the front window. I think they were | :12:34. | :12:38. | |
opportunists, they saw two laptops, and then they opened the window and | :12:39. | :12:43. | |
then out again. After recent allegations crime figures have been | :12:44. | :12:46. | |
massaged by the Metropolitan Police in London, Greater Manchester's are | :12:47. | :12:53. | |
going to be independently audited. I have got to make sure that I have | :12:54. | :12:58. | |
got confidence, the public got confidence, that police and other | :12:59. | :13:02. | |
agencies are accurate in recording. That's the beginning and end of the | :13:03. | :13:07. | |
conversation, giving people confidence that we're not try to | :13:08. | :13:12. | |
people the figures. Do you trust the figures? I trust figures. Tony Lloyd | :13:13. | :13:17. | |
says the audit should be completed by the end of next month. Still to | :13:18. | :13:25. | |
come on North West Tonight. Flying the Olympic flag for the North West. | :13:26. | :13:28. | |
Meet the skier who learned to spin and jump right here in Kendal. And | :13:29. | :13:36. | |
the end of an era for this historic lab where. | :13:37. | :13:40. | |
Bricks were first made in Claffton in 1898. But at the height of the | :13:41. | :13:47. | |
last recession the historic site was mothballed, 28 men made redundant. | :13:48. | :13:52. | |
But today 20 of those men were back in work, back making bricks as the | :13:53. | :13:55. | |
yard officially re`opened. Here s Jayne McCubbin with a good news | :13:56. | :13:58. | |
story not just about them, but about the shape of the UK economy. Back | :13:59. | :14:13. | |
making bricks. It's good to be back! For most of the last century, these | :14:14. | :14:17. | |
buckets could be seen carrying clay from the Moorside. Rogue police | :14:18. | :14:22. | |
bringing them into Claffton brickworks, and then the recession | :14:23. | :14:26. | |
hit. The house`building sector tumbled from our high in 2005 to a | :14:27. | :14:35. | |
in 2009. That is when the plant was mothballed. A harsh reminder of | :14:36. | :14:42. | |
recession, worse still, the loss of livelihood. This has been going on a | :14:43. | :14:53. | |
long time. Glad to be back? I am, yet. We need to introduce some | :14:54. | :14:58. | |
younger employment, get more people trained up, the next generation of | :14:59. | :15:07. | |
workers. 100 plus! These are some of 32 million bricks they expect to | :15:08. | :15:13. | |
make this year. We made 28 people redundant four years ago and now we | :15:14. | :15:17. | |
are in a position where we can take 20 people back, ex employees have | :15:18. | :15:23. | |
come back to their job. The Dennis, who fires the kiln, it is a huge | :15:24. | :15:28. | |
deal. He, his son and brothers, all back in their old jobs. It feels | :15:29. | :15:33. | |
really good, it is about the next generation. Claffton bricks will | :15:34. | :15:38. | |
help build 20,000 new homes in the next year. In 2013 the North West | :15:39. | :15:45. | |
won the third biggest share of new construction projects. The Northwest | :15:46. | :15:50. | |
is getting back in business. And our political editor Arif Ansari | :15:51. | :15:54. | |
will be debating the state of the North West economy with local MPs | :15:55. | :15:57. | |
Alison McGovern and David Rutley on this week's Sunday Politics. That's | :15:58. | :16:05. | |
at 11 o'clock, Sunday on BBC One. Well Richard is here now ahead of | :16:06. | :16:09. | |
the weekend's sport and we're still waiting for Manchester United's big | :16:10. | :16:17. | |
move into the transfer market. What is the matter with this deal? ! I | :16:18. | :16:21. | |
see what you did there! Yes, it s all a bit frustrating for United | :16:22. | :16:26. | |
fans now. They know that Chelsea midfielder Juan Mata is the target, | :16:27. | :16:30. | |
that a fee of ?37 million has been agreed and even that the Londoners | :16:31. | :16:34. | |
would allow him to travel for a medical, but there's still no deal | :16:35. | :16:37. | |
done. Should United fans be concerned? They'll be jittery but I | :16:38. | :16:40. | |
don't think they should be too worried. My understanding is that | :16:41. | :16:43. | |
the deal is being held up by Chelsea's efforts to sign Mata's | :16:44. | :16:46. | |
replacement Mohamed Salah from Basel, a target for Liverpool. With | :16:47. | :16:54. | |
you expect the move to be completed in the next couple of days. Taking | :16:55. | :17:05. | |
centre stage tomorrow is the FA Cup. At Rochdale where Sheffield | :17:06. | :17:08. | |
Wednesday are the visitors. And after Dale's win over Leeds United | :17:09. | :17:11. | |
in the last round the whole town is talking about it. With Dale second | :17:12. | :17:15. | |
in League Two, manager Keith Hill insists the priority is promotion, | :17:16. | :17:18. | |
but has a simple message for his players when it comes to the Cup. | :17:19. | :17:21. | |
Enjoy it. We have got level`headed characters, we have honesty in our | :17:22. | :17:24. | |
side. I think it has been reflected in the Games we have played since | :17:25. | :17:28. | |
the FA Cup. The players realise that this is a break from our priority, | :17:29. | :17:33. | |
our priority is the league but it's a great break to have. | :17:34. | :17:37. | |
There's also a big game in the Championship tomorrow where Barry | :17:38. | :17:39. | |
Ferguson makes his managerial debut in temporary charge of Blackpool. | :17:40. | :17:42. | |
The Scotland midfielder replaces the sacked Paul Ince and has drafted in | :17:43. | :17:45. | |
reinforcements for the visit of Doncaster, signing Blackburn striker | :17:46. | :17:48. | |
David Goodwille and Middlesbrough winger Andy Halliday on loan. But | :17:49. | :17:53. | |
what is the stand`in manager's message for The Seasiders' fans | :17:54. | :17:59. | |
Just get behind us, simple as that. We know it has been a difficult | :18:00. | :18:02. | |
period this last eight or nine Games, I think they will get behind | :18:03. | :18:08. | |
us, no problem. Forget about me it's the boys in the dressing room, | :18:09. | :18:11. | |
wants to go on the pitch, I'm sure the fans will get behind them. | :18:12. | :18:15. | |
We know in the men's game that Manchester City's riches have turned | :18:16. | :18:18. | |
the club into one of the Premier Leagues powerhouses. And now women's | :18:19. | :18:21. | |
football might be taking a similar shape. Today City launched their new | :18:22. | :18:24. | |
Women's Football Club as they prepare for the new season in the | :18:25. | :18:28. | |
Superleague. Yunus Mulla was at the launch for us. The word ladies was | :18:29. | :18:37. | |
dropped and it is Manchester City women's football club from now on. | :18:38. | :18:42. | |
The blues manager Manuel Pellegrini and head coach of development were | :18:43. | :18:47. | |
among the assembled guests. The club are trying to integrate both sides | :18:48. | :18:53. | |
of the game. This club has a shared vision and methodology, from the | :18:54. | :18:57. | |
Academy and younger teams at nine and ten to the men's first team and | :18:58. | :19:02. | |
women's first thing. We want one identity, whoever you come and watch | :19:03. | :19:06. | |
here. Although there has been a women's size since 1988, the new | :19:07. | :19:09. | |
look club will compete in the expanded women's super league in | :19:10. | :19:16. | |
2014. With added New Zealand international on`board as well as | :19:17. | :19:20. | |
for England players, they include step out from Arsenal. For us as | :19:21. | :19:27. | |
footballers, to help us improve it is something I cannot turn it down, | :19:28. | :19:33. | |
I'm excited about the new season. This follows the investment earlier | :19:34. | :19:38. | |
this week in a football club at Melbourne and the creation of a New | :19:39. | :19:42. | |
York side last year. Manchester City is hoping to make its presence felt | :19:43. | :19:47. | |
in every part of the game. They will move to the city Academy, they will | :19:48. | :19:51. | |
be a new builds community coaching programme. People were saying, you | :19:52. | :19:57. | |
don't look like a footballer, you read Barbie doll! Other people have | :19:58. | :20:01. | |
a perception of women's football, and with people coming on board we | :20:02. | :20:07. | |
can change that. The Masters in Abu Dhabi seem intent on making the club | :20:08. | :20:12. | |
of force in the super league in the same way their male counterparts | :20:13. | :20:19. | |
have become in the yearly. A freestyle skier from the North | :20:20. | :20:23. | |
West is preparing to take on the best in the world at the Winter | :20:24. | :20:26. | |
Olympics in Sochi. Emma Lonsdale is what's known as a a half`pipe | :20:27. | :20:30. | |
skiier. That's the event where they do the jumps and tricks. But as I | :20:31. | :20:34. | |
found out she didn't start out on the slopes of the Alps but on a | :20:35. | :20:37. | |
piste in Cumbria. Meet Emma Londsdale. On skis since | :20:38. | :20:43. | |
she was two and now off to the Winter Olympics.In the thrilling | :20:44. | :20:44. | |
freestyle event of halfpipe skiing. Very, very proud. It's a new event | :20:45. | :21:01. | |
in the Olympics. So it's quite a privilege to be one of the first | :21:02. | :21:05. | |
athletes to ever compete in half pipe skiing in the Olympics. As one | :21:06. | :21:10. | |
of the world's best, Emma has of course skied and won events around | :21:11. | :21:13. | |
the world. But she learnt the tricks of her trade much closer to home. On | :21:14. | :21:17. | |
this dry slope in Kendal. And her local club couldn't be prouder. Emma | :21:18. | :21:24. | |
is just the most bubbly, laid`back person you could ever imagine. A | :21:25. | :21:28. | |
real character, but totally dedicated to what she is doing. | :21:29. | :21:33. | |
Don't know who is more excited, the club or! , really proud of her. | :21:34. | :21:42. | |
My ambitions are to ski the best I can ski. I want to make the finals, | :21:43. | :21:49. | |
which is top 12, but I just want to come home proud, do my country proud | :21:50. | :21:56. | |
and ski the best I can. I'm sure your family are very proud of you. | :21:57. | :22:01. | |
Yeah, I'm sure people are getting sick of hearing about it, my mum and | :22:02. | :22:05. | |
dad are very proud parents! Emma will fly out to Russia at the start | :22:06. | :22:13. | |
of next month. Finally from me, a reminder that you | :22:14. | :22:17. | |
can get all the best coverage and commentary from this weekend's | :22:18. | :22:20. | |
Football League and FA Cup ties on your BBC local radio station. And it | :22:21. | :22:24. | |
all starts at eight o'clock tonight with commentary of Preston's tie at | :22:25. | :22:27. | |
Nottingham Forest on BBC Radio Lancashire. Didn't realise you were | :22:28. | :22:38. | |
such a Winter Olympics expert! You know I am not! Half pipe is because | :22:39. | :22:46. | |
of the shape? It's like the skateboard thing, where they do the | :22:47. | :22:51. | |
tricks. You didn't watch it, did you? You see! They weren't paying | :22:52. | :22:58. | |
attention. We were! Moving on quickly. Sir John Charnley was a | :22:59. | :23:04. | |
surgeon whose work has transformed the lives of hundreds of people | :23:05. | :23:08. | |
around the world, from the early 1960s he pioneered hip replacement | :23:09. | :23:14. | |
surgery. The lab and workshop where he developed his metal and plastic | :23:15. | :23:18. | |
joints are now a museum and still standing, but building work at the | :23:19. | :23:21. | |
hospital means a machine will soon have defined a new home. `` to find | :23:22. | :23:33. | |
a new home. John Charnley was born in Bury in 1911. He pioneered the | :23:34. | :23:38. | |
use of artificial hips using metal and plastic, not just metal on | :23:39. | :23:42. | |
metal. He did it all in a small laboratory at this hospital. | :23:43. | :23:47. | |
Children from a nearby primary school have been finding out about | :23:48. | :23:52. | |
it for a project. He was a very important man who invented hip | :23:53. | :23:57. | |
replacements, and I think he was very clever. As a doctor, he was | :23:58. | :24:03. | |
superb, it's like working with a human dynamo. He is one of those | :24:04. | :24:08. | |
people who never sat still, if you did a walk around, I have longer | :24:09. | :24:11. | |
legs than he had and I have forgot in keeping up because he ran | :24:12. | :24:20. | |
everywhere. He had machines to test how well his artificial joints | :24:21. | :24:23. | |
moved, to see how well different sorts of plastic wore out when | :24:24. | :24:29. | |
rubbed by metal. He says people 's lives. But the hospital is expanding | :24:30. | :24:37. | |
and needs the space where John Charnley's laboratories stand. We | :24:38. | :24:43. | |
are hoping to relocate the whole site to new premises but that will | :24:44. | :24:46. | |
be subject to a successful lottery application. John Charnley made his | :24:47. | :24:52. | |
hip replacement in this workshop and made his trainee surgeons do metal | :24:53. | :24:59. | |
work too. Very big for what they do. He also invented this, some of the | :25:00. | :25:05. | |
exhibits will go on display in the hospital. If he hadn't invented hip | :25:06. | :25:12. | |
replacement, people who needed it would still be in pain. We talked | :25:13. | :25:18. | |
about a bit of snow over Cumbria last night. As I left the office, I | :25:19. | :25:23. | |
could have sworn there was snow along the sides of the road. We had | :25:24. | :25:31. | |
a lot of hail last night, but we also had some slushy snow as well. | :25:32. | :25:34. | |
It just didn't last, luckily for us! We had everything yesterday, a lot | :25:35. | :25:44. | |
of rain, sunshine, I can assure you, plenty in the forecast for | :25:45. | :25:51. | |
Saturday. For the weekend, Saturday we are going to see Buster and | :25:52. | :25:56. | |
showers and some sunshine. On Sunday we will see some very heavy rain, | :25:57. | :26:07. | |
maybe gales in places. Tonight, you can see it will leave lots of | :26:08. | :26:11. | |
showers, maybe some fog patches A bit of a westerly breeze bringing | :26:12. | :26:16. | |
showers in by dawn. Five or six Celsius, maybe some frost patches in | :26:17. | :26:21. | |
places. Tomorrow morning, we start off cloudy but we are going to see | :26:22. | :26:26. | |
some sunshine for a time. Showers continue to feed in from the west, | :26:27. | :26:31. | |
by afternoon, more showers continuing to feed in, some of them | :26:32. | :26:34. | |
quite heavy'. We will see hail tomorrow, some slushy snow once | :26:35. | :26:39. | |
again, the chance of thunder as well through the afternoon, another day | :26:40. | :26:45. | |
of everything but the kitchen sink. Quite breezy as well. Despite highs | :26:46. | :26:52. | |
of eight or nine Celsius, once you factor in the brisk westerly breeze, | :26:53. | :26:58. | |
not going to feel very warm. If you think Saturday is bad, the main | :26:59. | :27:02. | |
event is on its way for Sunday. The huge band of rain works in from the | :27:03. | :27:07. | |
Atlantic, that will stick with us for a time. We could see an inch or | :27:08. | :27:11. | |
two of rain on Sunday, maybe some localised flooding, that rain is | :27:12. | :27:16. | |
falling on saturated ground, and you will notice it could be falling as | :27:17. | :27:21. | |
snow on high ground. A bit of a miserable weekend. | :27:22. | :27:27. | |
Really glad I'm going on a walking weekend in Derbyshire! Perfect! Get | :27:28. | :27:40. | |
your waterproofs and wellies! It's going to rain! Have a lovely | :27:41. | :27:45. | |
weekend. | :27:46. | :27:47. |
