:00:00. > :00:08.Good evening. Welcome to North West Tonight with Annabel Tiffin and
:00:09. > :00:12.Roger Johnson. Our top storx... Economic boost or election gimmick?
:00:13. > :00:20.The Government calls for high`speed rail from Manchester to Leeds. They
:00:21. > :00:27.say it'll create a global chty of the north. Also tonight...
:00:28. > :00:30.Tributes to a teenager drowned at a Lancashire reservoir as a w`rning
:00:31. > :00:36.goes out on the dangers of open water.
:00:37. > :00:38.As the BBC's World War 12 at home comes to Blackpool, I will be
:00:39. > :00:45.looking at how they help to train people for the front line. `` World
:00:46. > :00:49.War I at home. And climb every mountain. Wd hear
:00:50. > :00:50.from the Cumbrian Fell runndr who conquered Wainwright's peaks in
:00:51. > :01:00.record time. The Government says it wants a high`
:01:01. > :01:03.speed rail link between Manchester and Leeds to help close the
:01:04. > :01:06.north`south divide. The Chancellor and Cheshire MP, George Osborne
:01:07. > :01:14.believes it will turn northdrn England into a second global city
:01:15. > :01:19.for the UK. He unveiled the idea today at Manchester's science and
:01:20. > :01:22.industry Museum, but critics say it is just reinventing plans it has
:01:23. > :01:26.already scrapped. Roger has more details.
:01:27. > :01:31.The Industrial Revolution h`d its roots here. And now the Govdrnment
:01:32. > :01:34.wants the North to become an economic powerhouse once ag`in.
:01:35. > :01:39.Closing the gap with London. And they have three ideas to do it.
:01:40. > :01:42.Firstly, elected mayors, like Joe Anderson in Liverpool or London s
:01:43. > :01:47.Boris Johnson. Several citids have already rejected these. But this
:01:48. > :01:52.time, as an incentive, they'll be offered even greater powers to run
:01:53. > :01:55.larger Metropolitan areas. Secondly, new investment in innovation will,
:01:56. > :01:58.the Government hopes, bring a new science centre to the north. Our
:01:59. > :02:01.universities will be encour`ged to bid for these new funds. And,
:02:02. > :02:07.crucially, that high`speed rail link between Manchester and Leeds. Dubbed
:02:08. > :02:12.HS3, this will link to the proposed HS2 from London, improving
:02:13. > :02:15.connectivity across the north. It will use the existing rail corridor
:02:16. > :02:20.across the Pennines, with a high`speed section between
:02:21. > :02:23.Manchester and Leeds. But critics say this is all a pre`electhon
:02:24. > :02:24.gimmick aimed at winning northern votes. This from our Economhcs
:02:25. > :02:36.Correspondent Jayne McCubbin. So high speed for the Pennines, not
:02:37. > :02:44.a promise, just an idea, enough to get Northerners excited? It would be
:02:45. > :02:50.great. If they could cut thd journey, it would encourage
:02:51. > :02:54.commuting between the two. H am all for investment in really services,
:02:55. > :03:00.but because of high`speed r`il are ridiculous. That minor cost issue.
:03:01. > :03:03.An issue for another day. Today was all about getting the North moving
:03:04. > :03:07.faster. About picking up thd pace of economic growth. This bit of kit is
:03:08. > :03:10.about to set off on a journdy across the Pennines.
:03:11. > :03:14.What other motorways like? Nightmare! HS3 wouldn't just move
:03:15. > :03:17.people faster. But product too. The high`speed argument has alw`ys been
:03:18. > :03:20.about taking commuters off the traditional lines and freeing up
:03:21. > :03:24.more space for this. Freight. We have several suppliers on the other
:03:25. > :03:29.side of the Pennines, and it is up to 20 miles away, but that could
:03:30. > :03:36.make a difference, especially with meetings, which we have to set at
:03:37. > :03:42.times, such as half passed then because of the snarl at rush hour.
:03:43. > :03:44.`` half past ten. Just look at what happens in rush hour across the
:03:45. > :03:47.country. The population in well`connected London booms. All
:03:48. > :03:50.that economic activity. Cre`ting all of that wealth. Manchester barely a
:03:51. > :03:53.blip in the distance. So wh`t if High`speed meant that peopld would
:03:54. > :03:56.think nothing of living in Manchester and working in Ldeds
:03:57. > :03:59.What if the M62 corridor cotld work as one? Those meeting at thd
:04:00. > :04:02.International Festival of Btsiness today felt that killer idea had one
:04:03. > :04:06.thing missing. Liverpool. Mdrseyside is one of the fastest`growing
:04:07. > :04:12.economies. I cannot believe this is not coming to Liverpool. I think
:04:13. > :04:21.they make sense, but George Osborne does not. You are an economhst, do
:04:22. > :04:24.they have a point? These pl`ces are interconnected and have been his
:04:25. > :04:28.doggedly, so making connecthons between two does not make sdnse we
:04:29. > :04:33.need all the northern cities connected more effectively hf we are
:04:34. > :04:40.going to have more bang for buck. But remember, the buck has not even
:04:41. > :04:44.been found by a HS2. Our Political Editor is at
:04:45. > :04:50.Manchester station, this is more about a railway link? It is, you can
:04:51. > :04:55.see some of the work taking place at the Tory behind me, part of
:04:56. > :05:01.upgrading the railway network. `` at Victoria behind me. This is not just
:05:02. > :05:06.economics, but political power as well. For many years, city leaders
:05:07. > :05:11.have been saying to governmdnt to give more powers and and thdy will
:05:12. > :05:15.be able to create more jobs and give better cities, and today, I think
:05:16. > :05:19.the government moved in that direction, George Osborne
:05:20. > :05:23.essentially saying more powdrs would be given over planning, polhcing and
:05:24. > :05:30.transport, in exchange for creating city regional mayors. Not jtst the
:05:31. > :05:37.maid of Liverpool, but of Mdrseyside and greater Merseyside. `` layor of.
:05:38. > :05:43.Joe Anderson, the male Liverpool, called there is a bold plan. Five
:05:44. > :05:49.much is this about appealing to voters before the general election?
:05:50. > :05:55.I do not think you can take politics out of this. They said they wanted
:05:56. > :05:59.to cut the North`South the guide, and no major evidence of th`t
:06:00. > :06:05.happening, and today, the L`bour Party pointed that out and `lso said
:06:06. > :06:08.it was the Tories that got rid of the North West development `gency,
:06:09. > :06:14.but the Conservatives have lanaged to take the Labour Party and Liberal
:06:15. > :06:17.Democrats by surprise to cole in with their proposals first `nd when
:06:18. > :06:25.I caught up with the Prime Linister, I asked him for the vision.
:06:26. > :06:28.I'm in favour of elected maxors I think great cities need gre`t
:06:29. > :06:31.leaders. Look, you see it in Liverpool. He's a Labour maxor, but
:06:32. > :06:34.he's giving the city great leadership. You see it with Boris
:06:35. > :06:38.Johnson in London. You see ht in Bristol. I think it is time to have
:06:39. > :06:42.another go at moving towards mayors. But let's put on the table lore
:06:43. > :06:45.powers, more money. More thhngs that city regions could have. City
:06:46. > :06:49.regional mayors? Well, thesd will be set out in our manifesto. Btt what
:06:50. > :06:53.we are putting on the table today is a big shift in terms of polhtical
:06:54. > :06:55.power. In terms of science `nd universities. And in terms,
:06:56. > :06:58.absolutely crucially, of tr`nsport. To create a great Northern
:06:59. > :07:01.powerhouse by linking up our great cities. I am glad you mentioned
:07:02. > :07:04.that. Because some people whll very much welcome the idea of thd fast
:07:05. > :07:08.train. But there is still no timetable and still no budgdt? Well,
:07:09. > :07:12.what I would say is, over the last four years, what we have done is put
:07:13. > :07:16.in place a long`term economhc plan that means this country is getting
:07:17. > :07:20.up off its knees and can now afford to make these sorts of investments.
:07:21. > :07:23.And if you look at what we have done over the last four years, wd have
:07:24. > :07:27.put money into electrificathon. In turn, built new motorways. @nd here
:07:28. > :07:29.we are, with this great station in Manchester. ?44 million going in,
:07:30. > :07:33.not done by previous governlents. Done under this government. Yeah,
:07:34. > :07:35.but will it happen? Yes, all these things are happening in terls of
:07:36. > :07:39.electrification, HS2, new motorways. And this great vision for bdtter
:07:40. > :07:42.East`West links, to link up our great Northern cities. I thhnk could
:07:43. > :07:49.help to create a real econolic powerhouse. It's a great vision
:07:50. > :07:54.we've set out today. We have David Cameron's and so, will
:07:55. > :08:00.it happen? Do you think it hs likely? Labour had a plan, ht was
:08:01. > :08:07.called the Northern Way by John Cryer Scott `` by John Prescott And
:08:08. > :08:12.with high`speed rail, the Conservatives have not come up with
:08:13. > :08:16.the timetable, let alone anx money, but this does matter and th`t is
:08:17. > :08:22.because all the political p`rties are moving towards opposition where
:08:23. > :08:26.they agree that devolving power financial and political, to the big
:08:27. > :08:31.cities in the North of Engl`nd is really important, so we will see a
:08:32. > :08:35.lot more of this in the manhfesto, and I think everyone is travelling
:08:36. > :08:38.in the same direction, just maybe not in the same carriage or
:08:39. > :08:47.travelling at the seams need. Thank you very much. `` at the sale speed.
:08:48. > :08:50.Friends of a teenage boy who drowned in a Lancashire reservoir s`y
:08:51. > :08:53.everyone wanted to be around him. James Goodship was 17 and from
:08:54. > :08:58.Colne. He disappeared in Fotlridge Reservoir last night. Divers
:08:59. > :09:01.recovered his body this morning The tragedy comes as United Utilities
:09:02. > :09:04.and the mother of another drowning victim launch a campaign about the
:09:05. > :09:06.dangers of outside swimming. Andy Gill reports.
:09:07. > :09:10.This afternoon, James Goodship's friends gathered at the edgd of the
:09:11. > :09:15.water where he lost his lifd. To talk about him and bring flowers in
:09:16. > :09:19.his memory. One of his friends who was on the raft with him pahd this
:09:20. > :09:23.tribute. Everyone liked him, as you can tell. There's loads of people.
:09:24. > :09:28.Just everybody wanted to be around him. They all had a good tile when
:09:29. > :09:33.they were with him. He was just James. James and his friends were on
:09:34. > :09:36.a raft which drifted away from the shore. He and another youngster
:09:37. > :09:39.tried to pull it back towards the bank. But both got into
:09:40. > :09:42.difficulties. One was rescudd. But James disappeared.
:09:43. > :09:46.The tragedy here in Lancashhre comes on the same day that a camp`ign is
:09:47. > :09:49.launched across the North Wdst, with the school holidays coming tp, to
:09:50. > :09:55.alert young people about thd dangers of swimming in reservoirs and open
:09:56. > :09:57.water. At Prescott Reservoir on Merseyside, the Fire and Rescue
:09:58. > :10:03.Service demonstrate a reservoir rescue. It is to highlight `
:10:04. > :10:09.campaign by the water company and the mother of Dylan Ramsay. He was
:10:10. > :10:14.13 when he drowned in a quarry in Chorley three years ago. His mum
:10:15. > :10:20.said tonight her thoughts are with the family of the latest drowning
:10:21. > :10:23.victim. It is just heartbre`king. Every time I hear of anything, any
:10:24. > :10:28.incidents that happen in outside water, especially deaths. It just
:10:29. > :10:34.brings it all home to me. What happened on the 3rd of July to me
:10:35. > :10:37.and my family. Among the dangers of swimming in outside water are unseen
:10:38. > :10:43.currents, and water machinery and something called cold water shock.
:10:44. > :10:47.`` underwater machinery. Normally, you can go to a swimming pool and
:10:48. > :10:49.you can swim a mile, mile and a half, as a decent swimmer. Xou enter
:10:50. > :11:23.cold water after being in the sun included checking how many people
:11:24. > :11:26.were in the stadium. It's almost inevitable that some
:11:27. > :11:31.homes on Walney Island will be claimed by the sea within 20 years.
:11:32. > :11:34.That's according to the Chidf Executive of Barrow Council, who
:11:35. > :11:36.says changes in the weather will lead to more flooding and erosion. A
:11:37. > :13:08.report before the council this week other before colliding with the
:13:09. > :13:14.Corsa. Aaron was pronounced dead here at the scene. Amy died later in
:13:15. > :13:18.hospital. The two Audi drivdrs also required medical attention. One of
:13:19. > :13:21.them was detained in hospit`l for treatment to an injured back. Both
:13:22. > :13:26.men have now been arrested on suspicion of causing death by
:13:27. > :13:29.dangerous driving. The police say they are keen to hear from `nyone
:13:30. > :13:33.who witnessed what happened here yesterday afternoon. In particular,
:13:34. > :13:36.their investigation will be trying to establish the speed at which the
:13:37. > :13:39.Audis were travelling when the impact happened. And they whll try
:13:40. > :13:44.to establish whether the two vehicles were racing one another at
:13:45. > :13:47.the time. At the sixth form college from where Aaron graduated last
:13:48. > :13:51.summer, there was shock at what s happened. The staff are dev`stated.
:13:52. > :13:54.Students are devastated. He was formally a pupil at Albion @cademy.
:13:55. > :13:59.That is one of our partner academies. And I know the staff
:14:00. > :14:02.there are also devastated. He was a lovely young man. And very dxcited
:14:03. > :14:04.actually about going out into the world of work. Meanwhile,
:14:05. > :14:10.investigations into exactly what happened continue.
:14:11. > :14:19.Still to come on North West Tonight... Finally in the rtns.
:14:20. > :14:22.Ashwell Prince makes a double hundred as Lancashire make hay in
:14:23. > :14:26.the sunshine. And on top of the world. Thd man who
:14:27. > :14:37.ran Wainwright's peaks in rdcord time.
:14:38. > :14:41.A century ago, soldiers destined for the battlefields of the First World
:14:42. > :14:45.War were being trained by sdnding them to Blackpool. An elaborate
:14:46. > :14:50.train system was dug in one of the parks to teach troops how to cope on
:14:51. > :14:54.the front line. The trenches have been hidden beneath Watson Road Park
:14:55. > :14:58.burn nearly a century, but @cura legit are now preparing to dxcavate
:14:59. > :15:04.the system. Peter Marshall hs in Blackpool night. `` but
:15:05. > :15:10.archaeologists are preparing. I am at the festival we havd the
:15:11. > :15:14.BBC's World War I at home to is here, and you can find out `bout
:15:15. > :15:18.your family history as it rdlates to the great War, and go through a mock
:15:19. > :15:28.recruitment process, you can see if you would measure up, even getting
:15:29. > :15:32.your eye `` get your identification permits sign. I have been fhnding
:15:33. > :15:37.out how a local park trained many of for the front line.
:15:38. > :15:40.There is little sign of Watson Road Park's wartime past to the
:15:41. > :15:44.uneducated eye. But experts can paint a vivid picture of how it
:15:45. > :15:49.looked back in 1950. So, im`gine from where we're standing, `ll the
:15:50. > :15:54.way to the sea. That we havd sand dunes, no houses. And all the way
:15:55. > :15:58.from where we're standing, `ll the way to the Bowling Green, bdhind the
:15:59. > :16:06.fence over there. We have front`line trenches.
:16:07. > :16:09.MUSIC: "Adagio for Strings". The trench system was creatdd to
:16:10. > :16:12.help train the large number of volunteers who had signed up
:16:13. > :16:17.following the outbreak of the First World War. They were trying to give
:16:18. > :16:23.the training soldiers the bdst experience of what they werd going
:16:24. > :16:31.to encounter. And not send the troops out into some complete
:16:32. > :16:35.unknown. In June 1916, when the troops had left for the front`line,
:16:36. > :16:39.the trench system under the ground here was opened up to the ptblic.
:16:40. > :16:43.Offering what the Blackpool Herald at the time said was an objdct
:16:44. > :16:47.lesson in how war was conducted on the fields of Flanders. Anyone
:16:48. > :16:52.wearing the King's uniform was given free admission. Next month, between
:16:53. > :16:58.the seventh and 19th of Julx, excavation will take place.
:16:59. > :17:03.Volunteers who want to take part can sign up on Blackpool Council's
:17:04. > :17:07.website. Just because it is 100 years, it is nice to be doing this.
:17:08. > :17:13.But we mustn't forget ever what people did for us. I think ht brings
:17:14. > :17:15.it home to people in Britain, and in this area particularly, that
:17:16. > :17:25.contribution that Blackpool made to the First World War.
:17:26. > :17:28.This too is only here for one day tomorrow, starting at ten o'clock in
:17:29. > :17:33.the morning and told for o'clock in the afternoon, BBC Radio Lancashire
:17:34. > :17:39.broadcasting throughout the day and Roger, you will be here too?
:17:40. > :17:47.I will be, for a couple of hours at around midday, and I shall see if I
:17:48. > :17:56.would have been tall enough. I know where you are going with thhs. I
:17:57. > :18:00.cannot imagine? Not very fahr. But you were at the sunshine to make up
:18:01. > :18:04.for it today. And you were `t the cricket?
:18:05. > :18:10.A tough job, but someone has to do it. Perfect weather and Lancashire's
:18:11. > :18:13.batsmen hitting the ball to every corner of Old Trafford. And to top
:18:14. > :18:17.it off, Ashwell Prince made a double century. It leaves the red rose men
:18:18. > :18:20.in total control of their m`tch against Northants. But with Lancs
:18:21. > :18:22.second from bottom in Countx Championship Division One, they re
:18:23. > :18:28.still very much in a relegation battle.
:18:29. > :18:35.It was the sort of day to ptt a smile back on the faces of the
:18:36. > :18:40.Lancashire faithful. Obviously, as cricket fans, this is what ht is all
:18:41. > :18:43.about for you. But some people might say this is what summer is `ll
:18:44. > :18:47.about. It certainly is. This is what we have been waiting for. Especially
:18:48. > :18:53.in Manchester, isn't it? Thd day started with a record partndrship,
:18:54. > :18:58.Steven Croft and Ashwell Prhnce shearling 332 runs in a subtrb
:18:59. > :19:04.fourth wicket stand, a sign of things to come? Yes. I think it is
:19:05. > :19:09.just a case of getting hungry for runs. And once we got in, jtst not
:19:10. > :19:15.giving them a chance. The b`d men, and Ashwell Prince in particular,
:19:16. > :19:18.must have been listening. `` batsmen. So that is the double
:19:19. > :19:21.century for Ashwell Prince. Very timely runs as well. Becausd overall
:19:22. > :19:25.this season for Lancashire, putting runs on the board has been ` major
:19:26. > :19:28.issue. Well, it has been disappointing in terms of the
:19:29. > :19:31.batting. I don't think anybody knows why. I think there's too many
:19:32. > :19:34.players out of form. Lack of confidence. Are you still worried
:19:35. > :19:38.that Lancashire are going to go down? I am afraid so, yeah. As a
:19:39. > :19:42.club, Lancashire have plentx to look forward to. Not least an England
:19:43. > :19:47.test against in layer in August and despite losing their head coach
:19:48. > :19:52.they remain confident that hn the County Championship, they whll fight
:19:53. > :19:57.off relegation. It is important to club with 150 years of heritage that
:19:58. > :20:05.we at division club. 20 chalpionship cricket is the test cricketdrs
:20:06. > :20:08.develop. And the hope is thhs is the performance needed to develop that
:20:09. > :20:15.winning momentum. Old Trafford looked fantasthc.
:20:16. > :20:23.They have ended the two verx much on top, at the declaring their first
:20:24. > :20:32.innings on 650`6, they have registered visitors to 100 `nd the
:20:33. > :20:36.`` to 113`7. Glenn Chapple has taken four wickets for 42 runs. Kdep up
:20:37. > :20:38.with day three on your BBC local radio station.
:20:39. > :20:41.Just in case cricket and thd World Cup wasn't enough to keep sports
:20:42. > :20:44.fans happy this summer. Wimbledon started today and there's bden North
:20:45. > :20:47.West success with Manchester's Naomi Broady coming from behind to beat
:20:48. > :20:50.Hungary's Timea Babos in thd Ladies Singles. Tomorrow, it's the turn of
:20:51. > :20:53.Stockport's Samantha Murray, who faces French Open champion Laria
:20:54. > :20:57.Sharapova. The 26`year`old found out about her draw on Friday.
:20:58. > :21:01.I was here around Wimbledon, someone tweeted my draw to me. So ydah, I
:21:02. > :21:05.was really excited. So what was your reaction? A bit surprised to start

:22:56. > :23:03.Thank you. It is the equivalent of running two

:25:53. > :25:59.temperatures over the last few days, high`pressure dealing with things,
:26:00. > :26:04.maybe some showers now and then The high temperatures slip a little a
:26:05. > :26:09.weather front tomorrow moving down, but through the rest of the week,
:26:10. > :26:16.weather front is close to us, showers could be in the a bhg deal,
:26:17. > :26:21.and the gardens do need that. A picture perfect end to the day,

:26:50. > :26:52.places, quite a lot of cloud cover, and we have had that consistently
:26:53. > :26:58.over the last couple of days, but breaking through the morning with

:27:02. > :27:06.other side of the Pennines, possibly with showers, and the cloud moving
:27:07. > :27:12.to the Pennines, then showers drifting inland, many places
:27:13. > :27:17.catching one or two towards the end of the day. The breeze from the
:27:18. > :27:22.North West not particularly strong and temperatures not as good as they
:27:23. > :27:28.have been and pretty perfect for many, not too hot.
:27:29. > :27:36.Some people might think it hs a really nice respite, I have enjoyed
