:00:47. > :00:50.Warburton, who was from Whitefield, became ill after surfacing near to

:00:51. > :00:53.the Sugarloaf Rocks. An investigation's been launched after

:00:54. > :00:58.it's thought a woman's body could have been at a house in Oldham for

:00:59. > :01:01.up to a year. Police were called to a house on South Hill Street and

:01:02. > :01:05.found the body of a 96`year`old woman. A man's been arrested on

:01:06. > :01:10.suspicion of failure to notify a death. Four of the five monkeys

:01:24. > :01:31.monkeys were recovered from an address in Brighouse late last

:01:32. > :01:38.night. When I got to the police station, were in some small metal

:01:39. > :01:41.cages, they looked in good conditions. They were quite scared.

:01:42. > :01:44.One of the babies was cuddling their father. The others were whingeing.

:01:48. > :01:50.they were used to. Firefighters across the region are on strike

:01:51. > :01:54.again this evening in a long`running dispute over pensions. Members of

:01:55. > :01:56.the FBU walked out for 12 hours at 2pm this afternoon. The Government

:01:57. > :01:58.says this weekend's industrial action is unnecessary and damaging.

:01:59. > :02:07.Suzanne Hailey reports. Fighting fire with fire. Another

:02:08. > :02:13.round of protests, and still no nearer a resolution. The change in

:02:14. > :02:16.the terms and conditions means it will be very likely we will not

:02:17. > :02:20.receive a full pension. The government wants to raise the age

:02:21. > :02:24.firefighters can retire from 55 to 60, and increase pension

:02:25. > :02:29.contributions. You've got to be fit for purpose, from the age of 50

:02:30. > :02:33.you're not. 80% of firefighters will not make it to the pensionable age

:02:34. > :02:39.with the standards the government are setting for fitness. The union

:02:40. > :02:45.says without a revised scheme they will be forced to take action again.

:02:46. > :02:48.Is the public prepared to have 60`year`olds kicking doors down and

:02:49. > :02:53.rescuing them from burning buildings? You possibly have to go

:02:54. > :02:58.eight or nine flights of stairs and fight a fire, it is unrealistic. The

:02:59. > :03:04.government says the deal on the table is generous. Under the current

:03:05. > :03:07.proposal is a firefighter earning ?29,000 can retire aged 60 on a

:03:08. > :03:15.pension of ?19,000 per year, ` rising to 26,000 with the state

:03:16. > :03:22.pension. The government say they are still looking to find a solution.

:03:23. > :03:28.Lots of football today. Manchester United lost at home to Sunderland.

:03:29. > :03:36.There is a crucial goal right now. Manchester City are leading 3`1

:03:37. > :03:39.against Everton. It was the final day of the Championship season.

:03:40. > :03:42.Blackburn Rovers beat Wigan 4`3 at Ewood Park. Wigan finish in fifth

:03:43. > :03:46.place and will play QPR in playoffs, with the first leg of the semifinal

:04:17. > :04:20.points to 22. Now the weather. We started off the bank holiday weekend

:04:21. > :04:26.reasonably well but it is changing now, with temperatures changing,

:04:27. > :04:29.there will be an increase in cloud cover overnight, and across parts of

:04:30. > :04:34.Lancashire it will start to produce some patchy rain. It will not be as

:04:35. > :04:36.cold as last night, there is no worry about frost. Minimum

:04:37. > :04:43.temperature of eight or nine Celsius. Cloudy or slightly damp

:05:25. > :05:26.to see changes, the first of those changes spilling across Scotland and

:05:27. > :05:29.Northern Ireland as outbreaks of rain drifting through the night.

:05:30. > :05:33.Getting into parts of northern England as well. With the cloud and

:05:34. > :05:37.rain it will not be as cold as last night, temperatures staying in

:05:38. > :05:41.double figures in many cities. In the south, clear skies once more.

:05:42. > :05:46.Like last night, it is going to be cold. Parts of the countryside will

:05:52. > :05:56.Generally a fine day was quite a bit of sunshine. Elsewhere, sunshine in
