A local charity is using music, including a banana piano, to engage adults with learning difficulties.

Electric Umbrella, based in Watford, works with people to encourage them to make music, work in groups and perform.

The banana piano is one of many musical instruments the charity uses - the "makey-makey" technology can turn anything conductive into an instrument, including people.

Bradley Cresswell spoke with police before he was assaulted during a night out in Watford.

"I want to say I always gave everything I had here at Watford. I've been working 15 hours a day every day so I'm very tired.

"Sometimes, even though it doesn't look like it, I am a person who keeps a lot of things inside. I do tend to be emotional. Also, it will be my last game and the thought of it is something I didn't imagine so it will be very emotional."

At today's sentencing hearing for John Jamieson and Graham King for the murder of Peter Shickle, judge Richard Foster said: "There was a significant degree of premeditation to find Peter Shickle with the intention of inflicting really serious bodily harm in what was a revenge attack.

"The jury must have been satisfied that you entered his flat intending to inflict really serious bodily harm or death. You were both the aggressors throughout - this was not a case of excessive self defence."

Luton Crown Court heard the pair went to Mr Shickle's flat planning revenge after he had been involved in an altercation with Jamieson's mother outside a pub in Stevenage a week earlier, on 28 October.

Insp Pushpa Guild from Hertfordshire Police said: "Jamieson and King carried out a vicious and sustained attack on Peter in his own home, which they had planned after hearing about the incident involving Jamieson's mother.

“They will now both serve long sentences in prison where they will have time to reflect on the consequences of their actions."

Today I've met Sue Greaves and her mother Margery King, who has dementia.

Sue feels the new Dementia Support Worker set up by Bedfordshire Police is a really "important role".

She told me it meant officers would now have a database on patients that could or have gone missing, saying "the quicker you can get them out there to look for them, that valuable time you can have to find them and bring them home safely".

She thinks the idea will work like "insurance", saying "hopefully you never have to use it, but it's there if you need it".

The biggest thing she believes it will bring her and others is "peace of mind".

In Bedfordshire almost 7,000 people are living with dementia and every year about 100 of them go missing.

So to deal with this, Bedfordshire Police has become the first force in the country to have a Dementia Support Worker.

Catherine Bishop (left) works for the Alzheimer's Society and is based at the force's headquarters in Kempston.

Her role is to improve the way the police respond when someone goes missing, and in many cases to stop it from happening in the first place.

She says it's an "innovative" idea.

I'm at St Albans Station where things are slowly getting back to normal on East Midlands and Thameslink trains into London, but some problems remain.

After signalling problems first thing this morning a number of trains were cancelled and delayed.

The very latest is there will now be disruption until about 16:00.

A 14-year-old girl suffered leg injuries after being hit by a car in Bletchley, external on Wednesday.

Police said the girl was struck by a silver car that looked like a Renault Clio at about 15:35 near the junction of Clifford Avenue and Duncombe Street.

They say the female driver of the car did stop, but after checking on the teenager drove off.

Police now want to speak to her. She's described as an Asian woman, in her 30s and was wearing a hijab.

Walter Mazzarri has his final pre-match press conference today and it's set to be an awkward one.

The Italian was sacked on Wednesday and he's since spoken to Spanish media saying Watford lacked the ambition and mentality of some of his former clubs. How will he respond to some no-doubt uncomfortable questions today?

The search for his successor continues.

Hull boss Marco Silva is thought to be the number one choice.

Former Russia national manager Leonid Slutsky, ex Leicester boss Claudio Ranieri and former Italy manager Cesare Prandelli are also being mentioned.

Many Watford fans would also be happy to see the return of Fulham boss Slavisa Jokanovic, who led the Hornets to the Premier League two years ago.

Dorrel Haynes, who was there, said: "It was a privilege that such an upcoming star came to Hitchin, it was so well attended too.

"We already knew all about The Wailers from Jamaica before he came here, so it was really exciting."

She added: "It was about the same time that Desmond Decker and Stevie Wonder also came to Hitchin to play - as it was quite a small town then, it really put Hitchin on the map."

The boss of the company taking over the Charles Wells brewery in Bedford says some job losses are likely, but it won't be "hundreds".

Charles Wells announced yesterday that it's selling its Bedford brewery and some of its brands to rival Marston's, but it will keep its chain of pubs and open another smaller brewery in the town.

Marston's managing director, Richard Westwood, said most brewery staff were safe, but there would be fewer jobs in either Bedford or at Marston's in areas that overlap - like sales, marketing, admin and finance.

He added that by about 22:30 last night the company spoken to about 330 members of staff.

He made it clear the company would "continue to invest in the brewery".
