The closure of Shrewsbury's Quarry swimming pool has been extended by three weeks and won't be open in time for half term.

Shropshire Council has apologised for the delay, but says it's better to get the work done now, rather than having to close the main pool again in the future.

It closed last month after a glass panel broke and fell in the pool and workmen have taken the opportunity to give the tiles a thorough clean while it is empty.

The revised opening date is now 26 February.

A witness says the helicopter pilot was asked to move by a building site worker in Leamington Spa.

Telford's accident and emergency unit may have to close overnight next month because of safety concerns, after one of the trust's emergency consultants resigned.

The trust which runs the Shrewsbury and Telford hospitals should have around 20 consultants but has been operating with nine, with fewer than half of those working on-call.

Now, a letter from NHS Improvement says they need to recruit another staff doctor to replace the one who's resigned by 1 March.

Otherwise, it says the likely result will be the overnight closures of the Princess Royal's emergency department due to safety concerns.

The trust told the BBC they are trying to fill vacant posts but have had to put contingencies in place, just in case.
