A Norfolk Fire and Rescue Service spokesman says crews called to a building blaze in Gorleston couldn't see the property when they arrived due to the amount of smoke in the area. 

The blaze, in a terraced house on Lower Cliff Road, was believed to have been burning for several hours before emergency services were alerted and arrived at about 04:45 GMT.

It had burnt through the roof to the flat above a neighbouring fish and chip shop, whose owner had been unaware of the fire until crews banged on his door. 

The blaze was brought under control and nobody was injured.  

Two brothers who died following a fatal collision on the A140 to the north of Norwich have been described as "fun loving... living life to the max" by their mother.

Shane Nobbs, 23, and his 22-year-old brother Sam, had been travelling in a black Honda Civic when the collision took place at Horsham St Faith around 08:00 on Saturday, 19 November.    

Paying tribute to her sons, Lisa Nobbs says "they will always be in my heart, my two little rays of sunshine".  

Their father Mark says he's "lost his little bodyguards".

Shane (pictured celebrating his birthday with Sam last month), will "always be in my heart" says girlfriend Lauren Gooch. 

Jasmine Colk, the girlfriend of Sam, says he "changed my life... he melted my heart and still does now".

Norwich City boss Alex Neil has the board's backing despite four straight Championship defeats, says chairman Ed Balls.

There have been calls of late from some fans for Norwich City manager Alex Neil to be sacked after a poor run of games.

The Canaries had a good start to life back in the Championship following relegation, but have recently lost four games in a row, and dropped to sixth.

At last night's Annual General Meeting, City's board made it clear to shareholders they think Neil is the man to turn the club's fortunes around.

Fans gave a mixed reaction:

This season has seen the 21-year-old break into the Canaries' first-team and he is currently joint top-scorer with six goals.

Murphy is a graduate from the club's academy and played a part in winning the FA Youth Cup in 2013.

Fire crews have been tackling a blaze at a property in Gorleston.

At least five appliances were called to Lower Cliff Road at about 04:45 after the fire broke out in a terraced house. Flames spread to adjoining properties, including a flat above a fish and chip shop.

Norfolk Fire and Rescue Service said the blaze may have been burning for some time without anyone noticing, allowing the fire to spread into the roof space.

It is now under control, and there are no casualties.

Norwich City chief executive Jez Moxey has been reflecting on his first AGM with the club.

He backs Alex Neil to help the Canaries get back to the Premier League, despite the poor recent run of form.

Moxey told shareholders last night he was aware he needed to "build some bridges" with people related to the club.

He said he plans to unveil new measures to hear more from fans on a regular basis.

Norwich City chairman Ed Balls has backed Alex Neil to turn round the club's abysmal form.

City have lost four Championship matches in a row and have slipped from top of the league to sixth.

After the meeting, Balls told me "he's somebody we know can do this job, the players are with him, we just need to start winning some games in the next few weeks".
