In an online statement, external, Jan Sobieraj, chief executive of United Lincolnshire Hospitals Trust, says that following the attack the trust closed down all its systems.

Because of that, only a handful of devices and servers were infected with the virus, says Mr Sobieraj.

He added that he also wanted to say "a huge public thank you" to all trust staff who had worked "tirelessly" to get services and IT systems up and running: "Everyone has been amazing."

One of the men who climbed 500ft up the Humber Bridge without ropes or safety gear has told BBC Look North he was fully in control of his actions, and has denied putting himself and others at risk.

Ryan Taylor was among a group of men who breached security and climbed to the top of the South Tower in the early hours of Monday.

Security arrangements at the bridge are now being reviewed, but police say no crime has been committed.

BBC Look North's Peter Levy asked Mr Taylor why he'd decided to go up the Humber Bridge:

The defender (pictured), who's seen as one of the heroes of the team's promotion back to the Football League, wasn't available for the last game at Southport.

Nor was he on the bus for the open-topped tour of the city following the club's promotion and he wasn't mentioned in the retained list released yesterday, external.

Cowley has told BBC Radio Lincolnshire: "We've been advised by the FA that we're not allowed to discuss any matters regarding Bradley Wood.

"Unfortunately, as a consequence, I can't communicate any more on his situation and I have to respect their request."

Today's event in Leeds follows last weekend's cyber attacks where several NHS hospitals and surgeries across the region, including many in Lincolnshire, had their computers hacked.

Staff were unable to access patient records, appointments and prescriptions.

It looks like you're going to need at least a coat - and maybe take an umbrella.

The arch was built in AD200 and was a gate on the London to York road.

A drink-driver, who had to be rescued after crashing her car through a barrier and plunging into a river, has been banned from driving for 12 months.

Alison Rossiter, 58, of Sutton St Edmund, Spalding in Lincolnshire, ended up in the 12ft (3.6m)-deep North Level Drain in Parson Drove, near Wisbech in Cambridgeshire, after crashing into the water at 21:15 BST on 30 April.

She was pulled from the car by Stephen Jones, who heard her screams from his parents' house nearby.

Mr Jones, from Woking, Surrey, jumped into the pitch-black, icy water and "felt around" until he located Mrs Rossiter in her vehicle, and pulled her free.

The 34-year-old said his heroics were "what anyone would do".

Mrs Rossiter was unhurt and later admitted drink-driving.

She was found to have 40 micrograms of alcohol in 100 milli-litres of breath - the legal limit is 35 micrograms, external.

As well as the year's driving ban, Rossiter was fined £140 plus costs when she appeared before magistrates in Peterborough.

Nine seals which have been nursed back to health at a wildlife centre in Norfolk have been released back into the wild in Lincolnshire.

Image source, PA

The seals, six males and three females, were rescued as sick or orphaned pups and were cared for at an RSPCA centre near King's Lynn before being judged healthy enough to be released.

They were seriously underweight or suffering from wounds or lungworm when they were rescued.

They've since all been named by RPSCA staff after brands of beer including Waggle Dance (pictured left), Jimmy Riddle (right), Skull Splitter and Pickled Santa.

Alison Charles, RSPCA centre manager, says: "We are so happy to see these gorgeous creatures returning to the wild after having such difficult starts in life.

"We always release seals into the River Nene at Sutton Bridge in Lincolnshire on a receding tide. This takes them out to the exposed sandbanks in the Wash, where there are other wild seals."

A leading Liberal Democrat is campaigning in Lincoln today ahead of next month's general election.

Lord Newby leads the party in the House of Lords and is in Lincoln to press home the party's message and to support candidate Caroline Kenyon.

This is a constituency which put the Liberal Democrats fourth in the 2015 general election and which voted in favour of leaving the EU.

But when I met Lord Newby at Lincoln Cathedral, he told me he believes people in Lincolnshire will respond to the Lib Dems' idea of a second referendum on the Brexit deal.
