Transcript
00:00 There's been an outpouring of grief in and around Penwithham today after the tragic death
00:05 of an eight-year-old. The boy has died after being hit by a van in Billsborough Hay near
00:11 Kingsfold at twenty past four on Tuesday the first of August. Police are appealing for
00:16 witnesses. In Blackpool, a new child and dog friendly cafe has opened in Norbrek Road.
00:22 As well as coffees and cakes, Larder, which is the name of the cafe, also sells a range
00:27 of toys and books. Two bronze sculptures made by Lancaster man Alan Ward have arrived at
00:34 their new homes in the Lake District. The life-sized statues of Beatrix Potter sat down
00:39 talking to an upright John Ruskin have gone into the grounds of the Damson Dean Hotel
00:44 near Bowness. In Wigan, a teenager has admitted to dangerously driving a motorbike. Cole Liskovich,
00:52 18, of Mulven Crescent, Ince, has been banned from the roads until he is sentenced on August
00:57 31st. In Burnley, a bride has travelled to her wedding in a tractor. Hannah Louise Ormrod
01:04 took a Fent 936 to join husband Joseph Samuel Lancaster in St John the Divine Church in
01:11 Clivijer. You might have guessed it, both bride and groom are farmers.
01:16 OK, now for the weather across the North West. According to the Met Office, it's going to
01:20 be a mostly dry start to the day, but showers are developing and some of them could be heavy
01:26 and developing into thunderstorms. By the later part of the day, it's going to be drier
01:32 and tonight it's going to be mainly clear, about 20 degrees throughout the day and clear
01:39 overnight. Better places to find the sun are around the coast, but it will be breezier
01:45 there.
