Hello, its Peter here and welcome to Fridays Levy Letter. I hope your day is going well and I hope youll be able to join me tonight on BBC One at 6.30pm. Ill have all the days news, including the latest on the murder on Park Lane in Hull. Detectives continue their investigation over the death of an elderly woman, believed to be from the Chinese community. Ill have the very latest on that.
Also tonight, we'll be looking at the troubled United Lincolnshire Hospital Trust over new claims of staff bullying and intimidation. And we'll be investigating claims that women over the age of forty-five are the main cause for a rise in the number of sexually transmitted diseases in Lincolnshire. Im sure that comes as a surprise to you. Normally experts blame young people and suggest its their sexual behaviour, which is to blame. But new figures are out, which suggest that women over forty-five are to blame for a rising epidemic of sexually transmitted diseases. Ill have the full story on that. Look North will have an exclusive report on an anti-bullying campaign, which is being aided by the Big Brother star from Hull, Dan Bryan. And we'll be behind the scenes of a new art exhibition, which is opening in London. It's by one of the greatest living artists, David Hockney, and features scenes from the East Riding. So thats tonight on Look North. And Lisa Gallagher will have the forecast for us as well. Ipod All the trendies have their Ipods at the moment, but things are changing. Shortly we will be able to watch movies on the new Ipods. You can download them straight onto the computer and then transfer them to your Ipod. The Ipod revolution is about to spread its wings from music to movies. Apple have unveiled a new movie download service, which will allow users to watch films on their Ipods or home PCs. Or you can have them beamed wirelessly to your TV! The company also revealed a new generation of Ipods with brighter screens and extended memory and battery life to make the service possible. Soon you can download movies straightaway and put them on your Ipod and then go out and watch the film wherever you are. The films, by the way, will cost about £8.40 for a brand new movie and £5.60 for some of the older ones. Quiz Shows I see that a fifth person has won the TV show, Who Wants To Be A Millionaire. This guy, whos won this time, is being called The King of the Quizzes. Hes been on Countdown and triumphed on that. Hes also had winning rounds on Mastermind and Fifteen To One. Yesterday Ingram Wilcox was celebrating his best TV victory yet winning Who Wants To Be A Millionaire. Good news for him! His quiz career spans twenty-six years and he first appeared in 1980 on Mastermind. It seems a little bit unfair that somebody whos been on so many quizzes should have won a million pounds, but then I suppose hes done a lot of work for it. That show will be on the telly in two parts and is coming up shortly. Political Correctness As you know, you keep me up to date with stories on political correctness. But this story, I actually read for myself. Its about a council in Bristol and theyve ordered that thousands of residents remove doormats from outside their homes, because its claimed that they are a tripping risk. And Bristol City Council also says that if the mats are not removed voluntarily, then they will come and seize them and take them away. So there you are! Be very careful, if youve got a doormat. They are a tripping risk! TV We were talking a few weeks back about the return of Extras. It was back last night on BBC One with Ricky Gervais. I hope you enjoyed it. I see that Strictly Come Dancing is coming back. Amongst the dancers this time around is somebody, who Im a big fan of, and thats the former Spice Girl, Emma Bunton. Shes hot-footing her way back on our TV screens. Shes amongst fourteen TV celebrity contestants. Also taking part and dancing is the TV newsreader, Nick Owen, whos fifty-nine and Jimmy Tarbuck! Can you believe this? Hes sixty-six. The programme once again will be hosted by Tess Daly and Bruce Forsyth and hes now seventy-eight and still doing live TV. The programme is coming back shortly on BBC One for a twelve week run. Emails Dont forget, if you fancy dropping me an email, then it would be great to have some when I get back from holiday. If youve got a problem or an issue that you think we could deal with on the programme, then give me the details. Drop me a line. Also, over the next week or so, if youve got any pictures of a view that you think we could show on the Big Screen, then let me take a look. Id love to hear from you. Get in touch to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Do nothing and dont panic, but I am away for a weeks holiday. So no Levy Letters next week, but the next Letter will fall into your inbox on Monday 25th September. So thats a week on Monday. Have a very good week and take care. Dont forget about me and look out for you letter again a week on Monday!
