Huddersfield is a particularly hard place to find an NHS dentist.

The watchdog Healthwatch Kirklees did a test and of 105 dentists on the NHS Choices website within a 10-mile radius of the centre of Huddersfield, only nine were listed as accepting new NHS patients. When contacted, all nine were full.

As winter approaches the NHS faces its busiest time. This week the BBC is focusing on one town - Huddersfield - to look into people's experiences when getting healthcare:

Jurors at the Old Bailey have retired to consider their verdicts in the trial of Thomas Mair, who's been charged with murdering Batley and Spen Labour MP Jo Cox.

Mrs Cox's parents, Gordon and Jean Leadbeater, her sister, Kim Leadbeater, and her husband, Brendan Cox, were all in court as the judge, Mr Justice Wilkie, finished summing up.

After giving the jurors his final directions, he thanked them for their patience before they retired to consider their verdicts just after 10:50.

The top stories from Leeds and West Yorkshire so far this morning include:

• The judge at the trial of the man accused of murdering West Yorkshire MP Jo Cox is expected to finish summing up the case later
• The husband of murdered Leeds schoolteacher Ann Maguire criticises a review into her death
• The row over fracking in part of Yorkshire goes into a second day at the High Court in London

More on the news that the husband of murdered Leeds teacher Ann Maguire has criticised a review into her death.

Mrs Maguire, 61, was stabbed by student Will Cornick at Corpus Christi Catholic College in Leeds in 2014.

Her husband, Don Maguire, has told the Victoria Derbyshire programme that the review has left no-one any better informed about what had happened.

Until all the the circumstances which led to his wife's death are known, he says, "it's possible that lives could be at risk in British schools".

"This shouldn't be about trying to make everything seem okay and hoping it doesn't happen again," he adds.

Mrs Maguire, 61, was stabbed by student Will Cornick at Corpus Christi Catholic College in Leeds in 2014.

Her husband Don said an investigation published this month, which said the killing could not have been prevented, "felt like the bare minimum".

The Leeds Safeguarding Children Board said its report was conducted by a well-qualified independent reviewer.

Mr Maguire has told the Victoria Derbyshire programme that the review left no-one any better informed about what had happened.
