War Dog

I had a thoroughly enjoyable morning visiting Lawns Park Primary School in Leeds. They invited in a children's author who's written a book about the remarkable Second World War dog called Judy. 'War Dog' is the first picture book written by Leeds author Tom Palmer.

Grimethorpe Trial

A man who’s accused of rigging his Barnsley house with traps to stop people stealing drugs he and his wife grew and stored inside was inspired by the film, ‘Home Alone’. Ian Claughton has gone on trial alongside his wife Lesley Claughton at Doncaster Crown Court. A hundred homes were evacuated in Grimethorpe in May last year when police raided the houses and arrested the pair.
