This evening on BBC Midlands Today we'll hear from an inquest into the deaths of five men who were killed after a wall collapsed on them.

A stretch of the M6 between Rugby and Coventry was closed for several hours earlier following a crash. The fire service has detail on this morning's collision between Junctions 2 and 1 - since reopened.
A spokesperson for Warwickshire Fire and Rescue service said: "The vehicle had left the northbound carriageway and rolled several times onto the southbound carriageway. Two people were trapped in the vehicle.
"Crews from Nuneaton and Bedworth used hydraulic cutting equipment to rapidly extricate the casualties. One casualty was taken via land ambulance and one via air ambulance.
"Crews from Fire, Ambulance, Air Ambulance, Police and Highways worked extremely hard as a multi-agency team in very hot and difficult conditions to save the lives of those involved in the incident."
The sunshine's brought out plenty of great pictures from our BBC Weather Watcher volunteers.
Here's a couple from user On the Moor in Biddulph and Shane's place in Fazeley, Staffordshire.

West Midlands MEP and UKIP leadership candidate Bill Etheridge says there should be a referendum on the death penalty and he would back its reintroduction.
He said: “For my part I believe that the very worst crimes deserve the ultimate penalty and I propose that those who murder and rape children, those that commit sadistic acts of murder and torture and those that commit acts of murder through terrorism against our country or our people should be subject to the death penalty at the discretion of the presiding judge."
The MEP, who stood in 2012 as UKIP’s Police & Crime Commissioner candidate in the West Midlands Police force area, also said three strikes should mean "life behind bars for violent criminals".
The death penalty is opposed by the UK government, Amnesty International, the UN, the European Union and 16 US states.

England's longest aqueduct has been praised as it celebrates its 200th birthday.
The Edstone aqueduct in Warwickshire is almost 500 feet (152m) long and Grade II listed.
A lack of money and competition from railways meant it was almost never built.
But canal experts say the cast iron structure has become a jewel in the West Midlands' crown - and i'll have a report on this wonder of the region on BBC One from 18:30 on Midlands Today.

An ambulance taking a patient to hospital came to the aid of a woman seriously injured in a crash on the M6 earlier.
The crew stopped at the scene and helped the woman, who had been inside a car that went across the central reservation.
She suffered many serious injuries, the ambulance service said, and was taken to hospital along with a man in the same car who hurt his shoulder and arm.
The crash happened between junctions one and two, temporarily closing a stretch of the motorway both ways between Rugby and Coventry.
A Royal Shakespeare Company performance of Hamlet had to be cancelled due to soaring temperatures.
To be or not to be - that was the question bosses asked about the show when the cooling system was hit by a technical problem. The decision was then taken to cancel last night's performances of both Hamlet and The Alchemist, which was set for the Swan Theatre adjoining the Stratford-upon-Avon venue.
This evening's performances will go ahead.
Red hot Shakespeare?
A spokesperson said: "We have been able to increase the cooling capacity and continue to work on improvements, but please note that the auditoria will be warmer than usual, as a result of the extraordinary external temperature."

The parents of a former Warwickshire county cricketer - found to have taken his own life - told an inquest he had been through "several tough months" leading up to his death.
Tony and Beverley Allin said son Tom's personal problems began when his brother was seriously ill.
The court also heard that Tom had been in a road accident and had to be cut from his car, and while he was "recovering well physically" he had told a nurse his mood was "up and down".
