00:00Good morning, it's Steph at the Doncaster Free Press on Tuesday, September the 9th, bringing you some of our headlines today.
00:08I put a piece out yesterday that had come from the police.
00:12The officers who were investigating the disappearance of Andrew Gosden, who went missing from Doncaster 18 years ago this week,
00:21have sent out a warning.
00:24There's apparently quite a lot of disinformation circulating on social media with regards to Andrew,
00:30which is obviously causing quite a lot of distress for the family, who have no idea where he got.
00:37He was last seen at London King's Cross.
00:41He was only aged 14 years old at the time.
00:45So that piece is online now for you to have a look at.
00:48Then we have some things that's actually going to be coming out today.
00:54The next step in the reopening of Doncaster Sheffield Airport.
00:59We shall have some information on that later today.
01:04The Stouty Auction Mayor, Oliver Coppard, has confirmed he will vote in favour of approving funding for the airport to be reopened.
01:13Leaders of Doncaster, Rotherham, Barnsley and Sheffield Councils, plus the Mayor, will be announcing the final decision at some point today.
01:22So keep your eyes peeled for that.
01:24There will be a story going on the website and obviously we'll put something out on our social media as well.
01:32And then finally, we've got some environmental news.
01:36Doncaster Councils let us know that they're now celebrating a milestone in what they've referred to as the ecological recovery of the River Don.
01:46As some wild salmon have been found, which is absolutely amazing news.
01:53Salmon have to have clean, well oxygenated water to successfully lay their eggs.
02:00But owing to pollution and other factors, they've not been found in the River Don for many centuries now, but they are now back.
02:10So that is great news for the river and for wildlife.
02:14Fantastic.
02:15The full story is on our website today.
02:17That's www.doncasterfreepress.co.uk
02:21And like I say, we'll keep you updated throughout the day on Facebook and X.
02:26It looks like it's going to be a lovely sunny day, so have a lovely one.
