The RAF Cosford air show has been showing off some of the aircraft due to appear at this summer's event.

Among the display teams this year will be the Red Arrows, a Eurofighter Typhoon and aircraft from the Battle of Britain.

But there will also be a chance to take a look inside the cockpits of a number of planes. 

And as always, there will be a number of static displays, including some classic cars.

Surgery to fuse two vertebrae together is offered to reduce serious back pain and the new procedure involves operating through a person's side, rather than the stomach or back, to reduce the recovery period.  

Going in through the front or back means navigating past a number of organs and muscles and doctors at the Robert Jones and Agnes Hunt Hospital say this causes more trauma.

It has appointed two new spinal surgeons in the past few months, bringing the total to eight.

Ironbridge Gorge Museum Trust will launch its appeal to raise £15m this Easter aims to start the redevelopment of its attractions this autumn.

The first phase will involve the creation of a new cafe and conservation work to protect the Bedlam furnaces, but the trust says it will be a long programme of work stretching over 10 years.

The trusat cares for 10 museums and 36 scheduled monuments and listed buildings and regular running costs are paid for by admission fees and retail sales.

But all major projects like this have to be paid for by fundraising appeals or grants.

A music venue in Wellington has been shortlisted to get a blue plaque on the wall, telling people about the building's history.

Terry Heath's Town House was run by local man called Terry Heath, who brought over a number of well-known American Motown and soul bands during the 1960s and 1970s.

Also on the shortlist, which was put together for BBC Music Day, is a building in Bishop's Castle, associated with the singer, musician and writer Jerry Lordan.

A national panel will announce its decisions in June.

More of Shropshire's council meetings could be streamed online.

Both local authorities are considering the move to try to engage residents in local politics. 

It comes as the Welsh government announced it could make council webcasting a legal requirement.

Telford and Wrekin Council already uses Telford Live to stream its full council meetings and Shropshire Council is looking into the possibility of holding live webcasts of cabinet and full council meetings.   

Ironbridge Gorge Museum Trust is due to reveal its plans for the next decade.

The trust was created 50 years ago and about 500,000 people visit the museums every year.   

Key representatives from the trust are in London to talk about a new £15m fundraising campaign which will pay for a range of things including a new cafe, conservation work on the Bedlam Furnace and the refurbishment of the Enginuity museum.
