Hi there, its Caroline this morning. I cant believe its the last day that Crispin and I will be with you for Look North at 6.30pm. Many thanks for all your wonderful comments welcoming me and Crispin to the show. Weve both really enjoyed it, despite the occasional stressful moments!
On tonight's programme, well be looking at whether or not private door staff should be allowed to use plastic handcuffs to restrain troublesome night clubbers. This is aiming to give door staff new powers to help tackle those clubbers, who cause a nuisance to the rest of us trying to enjoy a night out. We'll be getting the police reaction to this new initiative and finding out what clubbers in Stamford think to this new scheme. But what do you reckon? Theres lots of time today for you to get in touch with us on this one. Do you think door staff need help in controlling drunk and disorderly members of the public or do you think that on occasion door staff are responsible for inciting further trouble by aggravating the situation? Well, get in touch. What experience have you had with bouncers? Get in touch with our newsroom. The address to email is [EMAIL PROTECTED] I look forward to reading your views. Also tonight, well be finding out more about Hull City Council's new scheme to turn the city centre into a 24 hour Covent Garden style area. Im sure people, who live and work in Hull, are aware that the city centre becomes a bit of a ghost town when the shops shut. So well be listening to the councils new plan to bring people in the centre in the evening. Im sure wed all appreciate that but will it work? Im sure youve got a view on that. So tune in tonight to find out how theyre going to rejuvenate the town. Theres the sad news today that another whale has been washed up in the River Humber today. Rescue workers have been unable to save the animal, but well be asking why this keeps happening in our area. Its an awful sight isnt it? When youre driving along and you see some rubbish thrown out of a car on the side of the road. Well, tonight, Ill have the latest in our Grimewatch series looking at plans to tackle graffiti and flytipping. And as you know I love the theatre and love being on stage and of course Ill be auditioning again for this years Radio Humberside pantomime shortly! Well, I got the cushy job today of going for a sneaky peak behind the scenes at a play at Hull New Theatre. Its a wonderful children's play, called The Gruffalo and its opening in Hull shortly. Last night on the programme, we had a very heated debate about wind turbines. We had both sides of the argument on the programme with Richard Mardon from Your Energy, who is behind the plans for this wind turbine site and also Allan Hilton in the studio from the Wind Turbine Action Group. Their interview has got you all emailing in with your views about wind turbines. Heres just a few from the inbox! Nick from Lincoln is very angry. He says, I think its utterly ridiculous! Does nobody realise that wind power and power from other natural resources is the answer? And whats more of an eye sore? A power station, or a group of wind turbines?... It makes me so angry that people choose to complain about something so positive, that is an obvious step in the right direction. And Mike from Willerby writes in to say, If you covered the entire country with wind turbines, they would not generate a fraction of a per cent of the country's energy needs. How many would be built if they were not subsidised? And then Mike goes on to ask Can anyone tell me how long it takes a wind turbine to generate enough energy to make another one? Well, do you know? Im sure I cant do the maths to figure that one out! Thanks for all your comments. Keep them coming in to the Look North inbox [EMAIL PROTECTED] Take care, and make the best of our rainy Friday!
