:00:44. > :00:50.world record ` for the longdst ever hug.
:00:51. > :01:06.We've had a few dodgy looks, but mostly smiles.
:01:07. > :01:09.Millions of airline passengdrs may be able to claim compensation for
:01:10. > :01:13.flight delays ` thanks to a man from Stockport. Ron Huzar has won his
:01:14. > :01:18.case against Jet2 at the Cotrt of Appeal, after a delay of 27 hours,
:01:19. > :01:23.getting home from Malaga. Jdt2 claimed it was an "extra`ordinary
:01:24. > :01:26.circumstance" caused by a whring defect, but the judges didn't
:01:27. > :01:30.accept that and ruled in Mr. Huzar's favour. We're joined now
:01:31. > :01:45.Thank you for coming in. He's won ?526, but it could have
:01:46. > :01:50.ramifications, this case, if it s upheld. The Court of Appeal said
:01:51. > :01:55.unanimously what the test is today. They have said that for a tdchnical
:01:56. > :01:59.defect, such as a wiring error, in this particular case, that hsn't an
:02:00. > :02:01.extraordinary circumstance. That means potentially millions of people
:02:02. > :02:05.should have the confidence to make a claim for the inconvenience of
:02:06. > :02:09.delay, where previously, thd airlines have said technical defect
:02:10. > :02:14.is their defence. This was ` wiring issue inside a valve and thd airline
:02:15. > :02:17.presumably were saying routhne maintenance won't spot something
:02:18. > :02:21.encased inside a valve. We can't see it, therefore it's extraordhnary.
:02:22. > :02:24.It's not a fault`based systdm. Nobody is saying they were `t fault,
:02:25. > :02:29.but they are saying they ard responsible. The Court of Appeal
:02:30. > :02:33.said today unanimously, somdthing like a technical defect that runs
:02:34. > :02:36.out of the inherent running of an airline is not extraordinarx and
:02:37. > :02:40.therefore not a This could defence. Affect thousands of people over I
:02:41. > :02:44.think the last six years, is that right? You have 15,000 posshble
:02:45. > :02:48.cases on your books.. Yes, thousands, millions. There hs a
:02:49. > :02:52.danger that this won't actu`lly be upheld in the air. Jet2 will going
:02:53. > :02:56.to take it to the Supreme Court Jet2 made an application to appeal
:02:57. > :03:00.the appeal today. That applhcation was refused. They say they're going
:03:01. > :03:03.to make an application to the Supreme Court, to appeal ag`in. But
:03:04. > :03:08.that's no simple task to actually get leave to appeal. At this point
:03:09. > :03:12.in time, what we have is very clear decision from the Court of @ppeal `
:03:13. > :03:15.three Law Lords said the sale thing, unanimously. They upheld thd
:03:16. > :03:18.decision that Europe has made that the Dutch courts have made `nd the
:03:19. > :03:23.German courts have made. Thdre's clarity. There's no lack of clarity.
:03:24. > :03:26.It appears from a station that Jet2 have given us that the European
:03:27. > :03:33.national enforcement bodies are looking to bring clarity to this.
:03:34. > :03:37.They say that they regret any inconvenience to their passdngers.
:03:38. > :03:41.We hope this will not be jeopardised by today's ruling. Is there a risk
:03:42. > :03:45.that airline fares could now go up because of this? The EC comlission
:03:46. > :03:50.looked at this point and worked out that if everybody claimed and if
:03:51. > :03:53.everyone was successful, who is eligible for compensation, that
:03:54. > :03:57.would lead to an increase of fares across the board of three etros
:03:58. > :04:02.We're not talking about a htge amount. The amount of claims that
:04:03. > :04:06.there could be is only 2% of all of the airline flights in the first
:04:07. > :04:12.place. Again, I think this hs scaremongering by the airlines. Has
:04:13. > :04:16.Mr Huzar had his ?500? He h`s. Thank you very much.
:04:17. > :04:19.The manager of a Blackpool hotel, where fire exits were nailed shut,
:04:20. > :04:22.has been jailed for 18 months. Peter Metcalfe, who ran the now`closed
:04:23. > :04:25.Kimberley Hotel, broke 15 fhre regulations. His sentence is
:04:26. > :04:28.thought to be the longest ever imposed for breaching the ndw rules.
:04:29. > :04:32.Preston Crown Court heard that not only were fire`doors chained or
:04:33. > :04:36.nailed shut, the hotel also had no working fire alarm. Peter M`rshall
:04:37. > :04:47.It was once a Blackpool establishment, but by 2013, the
:04:48. > :04:52.Kimberly Hotel appeared frol the outside to have closed. But unknown
:04:53. > :04:57.to the authorities, its man`ger Peter Metcalfe, was taking hn
:04:58. > :05:00.tenants. A tip`off alerted authorities. The Kimberly w`s raided
:05:01. > :05:06.by police, fire and council officers in March of last year. The 80`bed
:05:07. > :05:09.hotel wasn't used by holidaxmakers, but had four tenants. Inspectors
:05:10. > :05:14.were so shocked by what thex found inside, they close today down
:05:15. > :05:18.immediately. They labelled ht a potential death trap. All btt one of
:05:19. > :05:22.the building's fire exits wdre either blocked, nailed shut with
:05:23. > :05:27.batons or even chained. The only useable exit had a gas canister
:05:28. > :05:33.right next to it. Fire alarls didn't work or were disconnected. Dlectric
:05:34. > :05:36.circuits had been bypassed hllegally and dangerously. There's no doubt
:05:37. > :05:40.that the breaches in fire s`fety presented a serious risk to injury
:05:41. > :05:43.and indeed loss of life. Our officers who compiled the
:05:44. > :05:47.prosecution case with experhenced and indeed, the Kimberly Hotel and
:05:48. > :05:51.what they were faced with is as serious as they've ever found. The
:05:52. > :05:55.court heard Peter Metcalfe told investigators residents werd adults
:05:56. > :05:59.who should be able to recognise any risk. He was found guilty l`st month
:06:00. > :06:02.of 15 breaches of fire safety legislation. Representing hhmself,
:06:03. > :06:06.he said nothing in terms of mitigation.
:06:07. > :06:10.Jailing Mr Metcalfe for 18 lonths, the judge said that he'd shown a
:06:11. > :06:13.callous disregard for the s`fety of people living inside the hotel where
:06:14. > :06:17.the conditions had been app`lling. He said the sentence had to be
:06:18. > :06:22.immediate imprisonment. Fird officers say it's the longest
:06:23. > :06:23.custodial sentence handed down since new legislation was introduced in
:06:24. > :06:29.2006. An elderly man, arrested after
:06:30. > :06:35.giving his wife a pain relidf patch in a care home, has finally been
:06:36. > :06:38.told he won't face any charges. 83`three`year`old Walter Crompton
:06:39. > :06:42.says he's been through 12 wdeks of hell. He was arrested and hdld in a
:06:43. > :07:01.police cell for seven hours. They'd been married for almost 0
:07:02. > :07:05.years before the past three months, Walter Crompton hasn't been allowed
:07:06. > :07:09.to be alone with his wife. On a visit to Eileen's care home in
:07:10. > :07:12.April, he put a pain killing patch on her arm because she was hn
:07:13. > :07:16.discomfort. To his shock and surprise, he was later arrested
:07:17. > :07:21.Today, he told me how relieved he was to be finally cleared of any
:07:22. > :07:26.wrongdoing. It's been a nightmare the last 12 weeks, absolute
:07:27. > :07:31.nightmare. I've not slept properly. I've lost a bit of weight, which I
:07:32. > :07:37.can't really afford to do, but I'm still, I have my spirit. I'l
:07:38. > :07:41.thankful it's all over. Eilden Crompton has acute arthritis and
:07:42. > :07:44.early onset of dementia and was admitted to this care home hn March
:07:45. > :07:51.because the couple were finding it difficult to cope at home. Once
:07:52. > :07:55.here, staff say they're reqtired to follow established safeguarding
:07:56. > :07:59.procedures and they did that by contacting Social Services. It was
:08:00. > :08:04.Social Services and not thel who called the police. Why couldn't they
:08:05. > :08:07.get hold of me and say, you don t do this, it's something we do.
:08:08. > :08:11.Medication is our responsibhlity. You're no longer career for your
:08:12. > :08:16.wife. The care home has told us today they received death threats
:08:17. > :08:21.and Walter, who's 84, is also bitter at his treatment. I spent sdven
:08:22. > :08:25.hours in a cell without so luch as a drink of water. I wouldn't do that
:08:26. > :08:31.to a dog, put it in a cell for seven hours and no water. But why do it to
:08:32. > :08:35.an old man? He's waiting for an apology but he's looking into ways
:08:36. > :08:39.his wife can move back home. I want her home so I can take care, with
:08:40. > :08:44.help from other people as wdll, care workers, which I do realise at my
:08:45. > :08:55.age she needs extra help. So I just want her home.
:08:56. > :08:57.Yunus joins us now. Interesting ly, it wasn't the care home that
:08:58. > :09:02.contacted the police about this It was Social Services. So what are
:09:03. > :09:05.Social Services saying? It's probably not Walter wants to clear.
:09:06. > :09:09.They're clear what their role was here, as far as they're concerned,
:09:10. > :09:12.when they discovered Walter was giving his wife medication, they had
:09:13. > :09:16.to act. In a statement he add that reports of this nature requhre
:09:17. > :09:20.Manchester City Council to work with partner agencies and the police to
:09:21. > :09:22.protect vulnerable people. @s with any serious allegations, thd
:09:23. > :09:26.information was passed onto the police to investigate. Now `s we
:09:27. > :09:30.heard, Walter was held in a cell for seven hours. He's criticised the
:09:31. > :09:34.police for this. He's criticised them and he wants an apologx. But
:09:35. > :09:39.unfortunately he's not going to get this this evening. What thex've said
:09:40. > :09:42.today is that this was a potentially serious incident in which a
:09:43. > :09:45.vulnerable elderly woman with significant health issues could have
:09:46. > :09:48.come to serious harm. As such, people would expect the polhce, as
:09:49. > :09:53.always, to conduct a thorough investigation. His bail conditions
:09:54. > :09:56.seemed really quite strong. He wasn't allowed to see his whfe
:09:57. > :10:00.without being in the presence of a social worker. On that point they
:10:01. > :10:04.say it was an integral part of the inquiry to safeguard the potential
:10:05. > :10:06.victims and while the investigation was ongoing bail conditions were
:10:07. > :10:10.necessary to ensure this happened. Of course, now that the casd has
:10:11. > :10:17.been dropped, Walter can sed his wife whenever he wants. Thank you
:10:18. > :10:28.very much. A man whose partner and daughter
:10:29. > :10:32.died on a boat in Windermerd as been charged with manslaughter bx gross
:10:33. > :10:36.negligence. Kelly Webster and her ten`year`old daughter, Laurdn
:10:37. > :10:42.Thornton were both found unconscious on a privately owned boat in April
:10:43. > :10:49.last year. Matthew Eteson whll appear before Magistrates' Court
:10:50. > :10:53.next week. Aimths you are to see are disturbing. Greater Manchester
:10:54. > :10:57.Police are appealing for information to help them catch two knifd wielder
:10:58. > :11:00.robbers who attacked a couple who tried to defend their shop hn den
:11:01. > :11:06.ton. The robbery happened on May 30th. The men went into the
:11:07. > :11:12.Stockport Road newsagents and held a large knife with the shop kdeper's
:11:13. > :11:17.throat and demanded cash. The Passport Office says it's coping
:11:18. > :11:21.with applications. The PCS tnions say job cuts have led to a staffing
:11:22. > :11:25.crisis. Photographs which are apparently taken by a member of
:11:26. > :11:29.staff show tens of thousands of application forms being stored at
:11:30. > :11:32.the Passport Office in Liverpool. However, the Home Office saxs the
:11:33. > :11:39.improving conMitch has led to an increase in work load and more staff
:11:40. > :11:43.have been deployed. The fashion designer, Dame Vivienne
:11:44. > :11:48.Westwood, has taken part in a debate about fracking in Frank. Shd's one
:11:49. > :11:51.of `` fracking. She's one of a number of high`profile people to
:11:52. > :11:57.stop the controversial method of gas traction. The `` extraction. The
:11:58. > :11:59.organiser of the debate is disappointed that no`one from the
:12:00. > :12:06.Government or energy industry is going to be at the debate.
:12:07. > :12:10.Manchester free trade hall, the scene of many an important debate.
:12:11. > :12:14.But tonight's panel, includhng Dame Vivienne Westwood, will be lade up
:12:15. > :12:20.of fracking sceptics. The organiser says that's despite his best
:12:21. > :12:25.efforts. The people that I talk to that are very passionate about these
:12:26. > :12:29.issues are fed up, talking `mongst themselves about it. They w`nt to
:12:30. > :12:34.talk to the industry. We want the questions Fracking, fluid answered.
:12:35. > :12:39.Is injected at high pressurd into shale beds releasing trapped natural
:12:40. > :12:42.gas. The industry says it's safe and will provide economic benefhts for
:12:43. > :12:46.the North West. Tonight's ddbate will hear from an American
:12:47. > :12:49.campaigner. We were sold in the US on this being our energy
:12:50. > :12:54.independence, but these companies are rushing to push through liquid
:12:55. > :13:02.natural gas exports to sell this to Europe, Asia and the highest They
:13:03. > :13:10.have bidder. Pretty high`profile support, Sir Paul McCart anx and his
:13:11. > :13:14.daughter Stella and Yoko Ono. People are frightened putting their head
:13:15. > :13:18.above the parapet to say thdy support it in fear of retribution,
:13:19. > :13:22.like with all the protests `nd that. Do away with the protests, let's
:13:23. > :13:27.look at it, trial it, see if it works. In Lancashire where test
:13:28. > :13:31.drilling caused a small earthquake, there's less enthusiasm. Wh`t was
:13:32. > :13:35.Plan B? Is this the only pl`n the Government has? Is this all we're
:13:36. > :13:41.offered? There must be something else.
:13:42. > :13:48.Is there a chance tonight's debate will be more raucous than the Sex
:13:49. > :13:51.Pistols concert that was once held here?
:13:52. > :13:55.I spoke to Dame Vivienne Westwood a short time ago as she prepared for
:13:56. > :13:59.the meeting. She told me whx she was taking part. We do want to persuade
:14:00. > :14:04.people, because I do not believe in fracking. I want to persuadd people
:14:05. > :14:09.that it is a bad idea. But on the other hand, we do want the public to
:14:10. > :14:14.make up their mind genuinelx and hear all the facts. Is therd a
:14:15. > :14:18.danger that when celebrities become involved in a campaign like this,
:14:19. > :14:25.that the famous faces almost overshadow all the arguments? I
:14:26. > :14:31.think it really doesn't matter, of course. One of the things that I'm
:14:32. > :14:37.so grateful for is that I do have a voice because I've a reputation of
:14:38. > :14:45.credibility as a fashion designer. People will listen to me. So that's
:14:46. > :14:52.wonderful. I'm very passion`te at trying to inform people. Cu`drilla
:14:53. > :14:56.have submitted plans today `nd they say they really have listendd to the
:14:57. > :14:59.public. They've taken into `ccount a lot of the things the public were
:15:00. > :15:02.concerned about. They say that they're reducing the amount of water
:15:03. > :15:10.that will be involved in thd process, that there'll less traffic
:15:11. > :15:13.involved and a reduction in the hours that they're working. They are
:15:14. > :15:18.listening to the public's points of view, they say. Yeah, well, then
:15:19. > :15:22.they should show their face and not just say it. They're obviously not
:15:23. > :15:27.listening to the public's point of view. They're not informed the
:15:28. > :15:31.public, so the public can't really have a proper point of view until
:15:32. > :15:36.they have more information. What's good for the planet is good for the
:15:37. > :15:42.economy. What's good for people is good for the planet. That's what we
:15:43. > :15:48.need to know. Thank you. Th`nk you. Off she went to her meeting.
:15:49. > :15:53.Keen to get away from you! H won't take it personally. We will find out
:15:54. > :16:00.what was said in the meeting a little later on.
:16:01. > :16:03.Still to come: On a wing and a prayer, the rare butterflies

:17:17. > :18:01.you are not able to have a competitive team. Has

:19:52. > :19:56.Nurtured, reared and ready for release, and a re`appearancd like
:19:57. > :20:00.this one demands quite an enterage. Because this is their final flutter
:20:01. > :20:06.to freedom. It's very, very exciting. I personally have been
:20:07. > :20:12.waiting for this day for a couple of years now and our offices h`ve been
:20:13. > :20:15.telling me that the habitat is just not right and the butter flhers
:20:16. > :20:19.haven't been there. Today, ht's such an exciting day. It's fantastic
:20:20. > :20:24.Obviously very, very import`nt for getting a native species back here.
:20:25. > :20:32.The last time the large heath butterfly graced the grounds of

:20:47. > :20:50.through their entire life cxcle from caterpillar to fully fledged
:20:51. > :20:52.butterflies. And it looks lhke it won't be long before that cxcle

:21:08. > :21:17.distinct across Cheshire, Greater Manchester and Merseyside.
:21:18. > :21:21.One location it does exist hs Bowlan Fells and Winmarleigh Moss. What
:21:22. > :21:25.does it mean to see them released today? It's fantastic. It's such a
:21:26. > :21:29.nice day. We keep seeing thdm flying past us. We've just seen two pairs
:21:30. > :21:34.mating. So it's absolutely fantastic news. Hopefully this is good news
:21:35. > :21:42.for the future. For now, thdy're ready to spread their wings and
:21:43. > :21:46.settle into their new home. Beautiful! Good to see them coming
:21:47. > :21:55.back as well. Interesting choice of music in the midful `` middle of

:22:00. > :22:05.colleagues might result in being warmly hugged back ` probably not `
:22:06. > :22:11.it could perhaps get you a faceful of pepper spray. Two work m`tes from

:22:44. > :22:48.continue to a whole new levdl. They've spent hour upon hour locked
:22:49. > :22:50.in the mother of all hugs at Manchester's Picadilly railway
:22:51. > :22:54.station. We looked up the world record for the longest hug `nd
:22:55. > :22:58.thought it would be a great idea to do the world record for the longest
:22:59. > :23:03.hug in a busy area of Manchdster. What was the world record? Ht was 26
:23:04. > :23:08.hours, 26 minutes and 26 seconds. So, they were doing it to break a
:23:09. > :23:13.world record and raise monex for a careers charity. They succedded on
:23:14. > :23:18.both counts. They clocked up 27 hours of solid hugging. We were good
:23:19. > :23:22.friends before, so it was OK. What was the most difficult thing about
:23:23. > :23:29.the challenge? You can get hot and sweaty, especially with the midday
:23:30. > :23:32.sun shining through. It just kept us going knowing we were doing it for a
:23:33. > :23:39.great cause. It was difficult at times, especially 3am. If mx mum
:23:40. > :23:44.were still here, she would want to ask the question, how did you go to
:23:45. > :23:48.the loo? We got a five minute break every hour. We could run to the
:23:49. > :23:52.toilet, sprint Not joined r`ther. Together? No, no. We could separate
:23:53. > :23:57.for five Would you minutes. Do it again? I think we'd like to do
:23:58. > :24:00.something again for charity. We do a lot of that here. Probably not
:24:01. > :24:07.hugging. I'm sure we can thhnk of something else.
:24:08. > :24:12.Best of friends. There's our chief reporter asking the question that we
:24:13. > :24:16.all wanted to know. How do they go to the loo? I'm glad they dhd
:24:17. > :24:20.separate for that. Nothing like a hug to give you that warm, fuzzy
:24:21. > :24:26.feeling. Cuff expect him to come into the office tomorrow morning...
:24:27. > :24:30.A big hug. Brilliant. I'll see you at the tribunal.
:24:31. > :24:35.You were sitting on those h`nds weren't you? You could though. If
:24:36. > :24:39.you hug a stranger in your office, not a stranger, but a work late you
:24:40. > :24:44.could get into trouble. You could, think on. Yeah, get on with the
:24:45. > :24:48.weather. Good evening. Well a clean`up is under way across the
:24:49. > :24:54.North West after flash flooding hit us yesterday. It affected homes
:24:55. > :24:58.businesses and even a hospital. Deepdale in Preston badly affected
:24:59. > :25:03.by the flooding. There were hail stones, lightning, thunder, a little
:25:04. > :25:05.bit of everything. Liscard on the whirl as well, also say tricky
:25:06. > :25:10.conditions with the amount of rain that fell in such a short space of
:25:11. > :25:14.time. Homes in St hellths and Ellesmere Port were hit by
:25:15. > :25:19.lightning. You sent dramatic photos. We love your pictures. NWT@bbc.co.uk
:25:20. > :25:24.any time you have something that you'd like us to see. It's been
:25:25. > :25:28.fairly settled through the day today. Nothing really to report in
:25:29. > :25:34.terms of rain. It's been largely dry, a few tiny spots of drhzzle
:25:35. > :25:39.working through. They barelx even touched wind screens. The sky isn't
:25:40. > :25:42.as blue as you might want in many places. That's the story through
:25:43. > :25:46.tomorrow afternoon with mord cloud cover building. But many pl`ces have
:25:47. > :25:49.a fine end to the day. Then through the night quite a bit of th`t cloud
:25:50. > :25:53.cover will start to melt aw`y. As it does, I think rurally, you could see
:25:54. > :25:57.temperatures actually as low as six or seven degrees. For your towns and
:25:58. > :26:02.cities, I can't see there bding problems at all. We'll be in double
:26:03. > :26:06.figures. It's between 10 to 13 degrees. For many places it's a
:26:07. > :26:10.decent start to the day tomorrow. It's all about that combination you
:26:11. > :26:13.have patchy cloud and sunny spells. It depends on how much up gdt of
:26:14. > :26:16.each. Through the morning, there'll be spells of sunshine around. That
:26:17. > :26:19.patchive cloud rolls in herd and there. It's going to block the
:26:20. > :26:24.sunshine out every now and then But it's once we get past lunch time
:26:25. > :26:28.that cloud cover starts to become a little more stubborn here or there.
:26:29. > :26:31.The afternoon is bright rather than brilliantly sunny one. You light not
:26:32. > :26:35.see a huge amount of blue sky. At least the sun is up there and the
:26:36. > :26:40.cloud cover should be thin dnough to allow a decent day. The bredze is
:26:41. > :26:45.from the north`west. I wouldn't be surprise today you saw tempdratures
:26:46. > :26:49.similar to today. 18 to to 20 degrees. Then the picture for the
:26:50. > :26:53.next couple of days, we see subtle changes rather than anything too
:26:54. > :26:56.dramatic. So this area of hhgh pressure, which has done us favours
:26:57. > :27:00.this week, it doesn't reallx slip away. It just moves slightlx.
:27:01. > :27:04.Through Friday you have that weather front which could bring you spots of
:27:05. > :27:08.drizzle. It moves down and clears on Friday night through to Sattrday.
:27:09. > :27:11.The sunshine should return, so all things considered, the high pressure
:27:12. > :27:16.is still influencing the we`ther. It should be largely dry, fairly fine
:27:17. > :27:20.and this chart just about covers it. I should have just left you with
:27:21. > :27:25.that. You can come over, it's I d stay safe. Over there.
:27:26. > :27:31.North West Tonight is offichally a hug`free zone. Until Dave gdts back.
:27:32. > :27:37.We'll all grab him. Enjoy the evening. We will be back later with
:27:38. > :27:39.the late Give someone news. You love a hug. Let's end on that note. Good
:27:40. > :27:44.night.
