The planned revamp, which has been given the go-ahead by councillors this afternoon, will take 10 years, although it's hoped much of the work will be completed by the end of 2021.

As part of the scheme, shops in the town centre would be given help and funding to build an online presence.

More would also be done to improve people's job prospects by providing training.

There's been plenty of batter and toppings splashing about in Yorkshire today, it being Shrove Tuesday (also known as Pancake Day).

On the coast in Scarborough, the annual Shrove Tuesday traditions include flipping races on Aberdeen Walk and skipping on Foreshore Road.

The skipping tradition dates back to 1903 when the Shrove Tuesday event was known as "Bell Day".

Local residents, includings servants and apprentices, were assured they'd have a half-day to relax down on Scarborough's seafront.

To this day, the tradition continues, with schoolchildren being given the day off to join in with the fun.

The Mayor still rings the Pancake Bell at noon, which years ago was used to signal to housewives that it was time to begin frying their traditional pancakes.

Hull College says from September it will no longer offer the architecture degree course to new students and is "still in discussion with RIBA regarding the support to be provided to remaining students".

The Reverend Clive, after the "accidental" collision with the Dean, recovered his pancake and gave his all to regain his position:

At the moment, it's unclear who the eventual winner of this fiercely fought contest was...
