The research will speed up the diagnosis of more than 200 rare diseases, so that children can be treated sooner. 13 hospitals in england have begun offering the test. Our medical Editor Fergus Walsh reports. Just a day old. Amelia is among the first babies to have their entire Genetic Code sequenced to look for rare diseases. Her mum didnt hesitate when offered the test at birmingham womens hospital. It was a No Brainer because amelia will be tested for 200 different genetic conditions, so she will benefit but also will contribute to the wider research population, which will affect other children. Amelias blood sample, taken from her umbilical cord, is being sent to labs in cambridge where her entire Genetic Code, or genome, will be sequenced. Faulty genes in our dna can cause thousands of rare diseases, but only treatable conditions will be identified. The 200 conditions which have been selected for the Programme Cause substantial Health Problems early in childhood and the treatments and interventions which are available for all of these conditions can have a dramatic impact on that child. They can reduce the symptoms and in some cases they represent a cure. Im still standing yeah, yeah, yeah this isjoshua two years ago, bright and active. And this is him now.

Our business correspondent, emma simpson, reports. A murder at the Post Office in a quiet yorkshire village. Diana garbutt had been beaten to death with a Metal Bar in the Upstairs Flat she shared with her husband, robin. He always maintained she was killed by an Armed Robber who had broken in and forced him to hand over the cash from their Post Office safe. He said, dont do anything stupid. Weve got your wife. But thejury didnt believe him. The prosecution said hed faked the robbery. Hed been stealing money from the Post Office, then killed his wife to cover it up. Today, theres no Post Office or shop. It never reopened. The biggest thing that ever happened here was maybe a bike got stolen or something like that. To have a murder in your village . Absolutely unheard of. Barry and vanessa were close friends with Robin And Diana. I still believe that he l didnt do it, you know. I think you have to knowl Robin And Di to knowjust how close and what sort of people they were. Yeah, never stopped believing. And i wont stop believing till hes out. We tried contacting Dianas Mother but were unable to reach her. However, in an interview earlier this year, she made it clear she believes her Son In Law is guilty. Over the years, Robin Garbutt has tried three times to get his case referred back to the Court Of Appeal as new information has been uncovered. They all failed, but his lawyers say the Post Office inquiry has now cast a new light on his conviction. Theft was the key motive. Two Post Office investigators testified against him, relying on Horizon Computer data. They said the amount of cash that he was holding at his branch was suspicious and indicative of fraud. Garbutt s lawyers are now arguing that none of the key Post Office evidence in his case can now be trusted because of whats emerged about the organisations widespread failings. The former Post Office minister, kevin hollinrake, is supporting the review. He went to the same school as garbutt but told me thats not why hes got involved. I cant speculate whether Robin Garbutt is guilty or innocent, but i think we all want to make sure people, when they go through the justice system, get a fair hearing. And thats what were keen to ensure. Because of my experience of the Post Office in terms of the wider scandal, but also the the culture that existed within the Post Office at that time, i think we just want to make sure that its properly considered. A complex case thats now back in the spotlight. I think this is the final roll of the dice, really. You know, hes fought long and hard and were all, you know, really hoping that this will be the one that gives him a breakthrough. Now with sort of the impetus of the Post Office scandal and the information thats now coming forward from that, i think that sort of hopefully adds a little bit of weight to what robin always said, that he wasnt, you know, stealing money from the Post Office, which was one of the accusations. Dianas mother has accused Garbutt Ofjumping on the horizon bandwagon, but his supporters say he never had a fair trial and its time for a wider look at his case. Emma simpson, bbc news, melsonby. Old graves could be reused, and Closed Burial Grounds reopened to help manage a shortage in england and wales. Currently, only some sites are allowed to reuse graves and it must be after at least 75 years, with permission from relatives of those buried. Our correspondent Graham Satchell reports. Highgate cemetery, north london. Its the final Resting Place of some of the most significant writers, artists and thinkers like karl marx. But theres a problem. Theyre running out of space. Like a lot of cemeteries across the country, highgate is all but full. So, the Law Commission is now examining a set of proposals to see what can be done to free up space. One idea is to reuse graves. Its something theyve been able to do here since 2022. It can only be done after 75 years and if the right permissions are obtained. If the Owner Objects to grave re use, it doesnt happen. And if relatives of the people who are buried in the grave object to reuse, it doesnt happen either. If the permissions are in place, a solemn process begins. I dig the grave down deeper and then re inter them at the bottom of the grave, and then the new burials would go on top. Right, so youre notjust throwing Away Bones or remains . Absolutely not, no. We would know where all the remains were, and ideally theyd be in their original location, Just A Little Bit further underground. The Law Commission is now consulting on Whether Reusing Graves should be allowed across england and wales. Its also examining where crematoria can be built, Whether Ashes Unclaimed by relatives can be scattered by funeral directors, and whether Closed Burial Grounds could be reopened and graves reused. A lot of people like to visit the grave of a loved one, and its something that they like to do regularly, perhaps on family occasions, and its a place to remember them after theyve died. And so to have a place of their choosing is something that can be really important to bereaved people. The Consultation Runs Untiljanuary next year. The government says its keen to find a solution to the chronic lack of burial spaces. Graham satchell, bbc news.

Three, two, one, action. 30 years Afterjim Bergerac hung up his handcuffs, the cameras are rolling again. An 80 strong crew bringing the fictional detective home.<\/a> There hasnt been a lot of Television Production here and certainly not the scale of the sort of production. So, as much as we can do in terms of exteriors, using jersey, all the beautiful bays, all the wonderful locations and scenery, absolutely. There will be an element of work being done in the uk simply because we cannot do that here. But it will be a jersey show.<\/a> Jim bergerac first <\/a>appeared in 1981. A former alcoholic, Police Officer and later private investigator. The man who played him insists his Co Star was the island itself. Take awayjersey,<\/a> proper jersey,<\/a> out of the equation, the film equation,<\/a> and you are left with not very much. You are left with an ordinary cop show.<\/a> What made bergerac special,<\/a> apart of course from my wonderful performance, was the. I always used to think that people got bored of my performance, as they might very well do, they could look over my shoulder and enjoy the sights ofjersey.<\/a> I grew up with bergerac, so, yes, big John Nettles fan, i rememberthe sun,<\/a> the scenery, the car, lots of driving, wonderful big houses.<\/a> Its got a lot of references to bergerac, the original, but i think its reinventing it as well. Its bringing it very Up To date. Shall i give you my interpretation of. Whats going on here . Up to <\/a>date means a neinm bergerac.<\/a> Damien molony <\/a>s screen credits include Ripper Street and suspects. Alongside him, Zoe Wanamaker as charlie hungerford.<\/a> This time, bergerac s <\/a>mother in law. And philip glenister,<\/a> aka Dci Gene Hunt in the Series Life on mars.<\/a> Jersey born actors will also be among bergerac s <\/a>supporting cast. The framework of the story is the same in terms of its about bergerac, its about him coming back to the force and, you know, getting back into investigating crimes, so thats the same. Its still going to have that sort of glamour that i think we remember. Fond memories <\/a>of in the original. But its going to be grittier, stories probably a bit darker. A thousand <\/a>people queued for parts as extras this time around. The lucky ones joined islanders who had already won a place on the crew. I am an assistant directortrainee,<\/a> but i usually do locations. So, its quite nice to try a different department. I havent done any proper work here, so its a bit like my English Kind of working and mixed with home and being around friends, seeing family, seeing people around, its very weird. But what about the man who was bergerac to millions . Did he get a call . I got a lovely letter from them and they said, well, would you come along and do a little cameo at the end and so on .

Theres been some Mist And Fog around this morning as well. And for the next few days, we are looking at the days starting on a chilly note with Mist And Fog, but most of us will have sunny spells. But therell be some patchy Rain Coming in from the west. This afternoon, a lot of dry weather around. Fair Weather Cloud bubbling up. It could produce the odd shower,<\/a> perhaps in the south east, maybe one or two in the west, but that will be the exception rather than the rule. But the Sunshine Turning Hazier from the west in the latter part of the afternoon. Now, into the evening, The Cloud will be accompanied by Strengthening Winds And Rain Across Northern Ireland and western scotland.<\/a> Not particularly heavy rain,<\/a> though. England and wales seeing some Mist And Fog patches forming. And here it will be a chilly night. In rural areas, we could even see a touch of frost.<\/a> But where weve got The Cloud and the patchy rain, here, temperatures holding up, and its courtesy of this Weather Front, which through the course of tomorrow will slowly drift eastwards. Thats a fairly weak feature. So, we start in england and wales with the Mist And Fog, that lifts, then a lot of dry weather, a fair bit of sunshine. The cloud <\/a>spreading across northern ireland, the Isle Of Man and scotland.<\/a> With it, patchy Light Rain and temperatures 13 to about 17 degrees, north to south. Itll feel quite pleasant, that 17, in the sunshine. Then, as we move beyond that, from friday and into the weekend, we say goodbye to this first Weather Front. But then the next area of low pressure comes in with a more potent Weather Front during the course of saturday. So, once again, for england and for wales, we start off on a dry note with some sunshine, but heavier rain and stronger winds come in from the west, gusty winds through the irish sea,<\/a> and that is very slowly pushing eastwards.<\/a> So, many eastern and central areas and also parts of wales will stay dry during the course of saturday. But overnight saturday and into sunday, what Youll Find is the whole lot continues itsjourney, pushing eastwards, taking its cloud and its rain with it. So, later on in the day, it tends to brighten up from the west. But here too were not immune to one or two showers.
