Northants Beacons mark the Jubilee + MP says no to wind farms incentives

Duration:
3 hours
First broadcast:

Around thirty Jubilee Beacons were lit across Northamptonshire as part of a chain of four thousand across the globe. We hear what happened in Brafield-on-the-Green and Staverton.

Marion Porter from Thrapston talks about her 14-year old daughter Emma who is playing cello in the National Children's Orchestra of Great Britain when they perform for the Queen.

The Conservative MP for Daventry, Chris Heaton-Harris, talks to Stuart about proposals to sweeten people who face having wind farms built near to them and about a proposal of Lincolnshire County Council to presume against applications to build wind farms.

Mark Buckingham, a physio with Northampton firm Witty, Pask and Buckingham, tells Stuart about the dangers of athletes and footballers taking painkillers to help them compete, while Peter Johns from Waterways World magazine talks about the 13th Crick Boat Show and Waterways Festival.
