GCSE students are picking up their results this morning, but because they are the first to be published under a new scoring system, they are hard to compare with previous years.

Nevertheless, Telford and Wrekin Council has congratulated the schools in its area and says results at Hadley Learning Community, Ercall Wood, Burton Borough and Telford Langley have all been "positive".

The Shropshire Federation of Young Farmers is being presented with the Queen's Award for Voluntary Service tonight.

It also suggests turning the Gatehouse into three flats and the former prison kitchen into either shops or a restaurant or cafe.

And the outline planning application proposes turning the gymnasium into a fitness centre and creating for 91 car parking spaces.

A Cleobury Mortimer bookseller is preparing to tour the country, showing people his World War Two Enigma machine.

Mark Baldwin has decided it's time to close his business, saying it's not possible to make money in the second-hand book trade and that he wants to go on the lecturing circuit instead.

Mr Baldwin said his Enigma machine, one of around 300 to survive the war, is a type commonly used on German U-Boats and has heavy, clunky keys.

He explained he got his passion for the devices, along with espionage and counter espionage after reading a book about it.

It's not going to be especially warm tomorrow, but it should be dry, with some sunshine appearing from behind the clouds.

And we are forecast a dry and cloudy night.

Plans to redevelop Shrewsbury's former prison will go before Shropshire councillors next Thursday.

The owner of the Grade II-listed building, The Osborne Group, wants to turn it into a mix of homes and student accommodation.

The plans involve the demolition of some 20th Century buildings on the site, such as the workshops and the education block.

But older parts, like the gate house and some of the cell blocks, which date back to 1787, will be retained.

A previous application from the developers was turned down by councillors in December, but a report by council officers recommends this one for approval.

A nurse from High Ercall has said the NHS was right to reject a donation from a group of men who dressed in drag to collect £2,500 for Ludlow Hospital.

Shell, who didn't want to give her surname, said she had been a nurse for around 30 years and she thought the idea of men dressing as "sexy nurses" was "just so outdated".

She told BBC Radio Shropshire she agreed with the chief executive of the Shropshire Community Health Trust that it was "insulting" to nurses, adding "The NHS needs the money and I appreciate that, but we have to have principles".

A number of nurses have spoken out against the NHS trust's decision on social media, external.

Shrewsbury Town's latest signing is grateful to get the chance at a League One club and has praised manager Paul Hurst for giving lower-league players a chance.

The club has added 13 players this summer, including a number with non-league backgrounds and Omar Beckles said Hurst was showing a real eye for players who can make the step up.

Beckles himself was first spotted by Hurst playing for non-league Aldershot, before he joined Accrington Stanley.

Revised plans to build 120 homes on the outskirts of Newport are being opposed by Telford and Wrekin councillor Eric Carter, who says too many homes are being built in the town.

Mr Carter said he was also unhappy with the proposals because the Station Road site is "one of the very few pieces of green land that is left on the outskirts of the town".

The recommendation going before Telford and Wrekin Council's plans board next week is to approve the application and Mr Carter said he expected them to get the go-ahead, despite his reservations.

But he said he wanted to make sure the plans include a crossing, to help future residents get over Station Road safely.
