How record casualties amongst road workers can be avoided, Pete Postlethwaite's gift to a budding film director, and the rising popularity of second-hand wedding dresses.
There are record numbers of casualties amongst workers fixing our roads. Carl Stephenson works on the roads in Norfolk. He was almost killed when the safety vehicle he was in was hit by an HGV.
Road workers often operate behind an impact protection vehicle, designed to act as a cushion. It should absorb the impact of a crash and is the best protection available to workers, but is it enough? We ask the Highways Agency whether the roads should be closed altogether when roadworks are in place.
A chance meeting led to Pete Postlethwaite making one of his last films in north Norfolk. Budding director Sean Crotty bumped into the actor in a pub, showed him his script and Pete Postlethwaite agreed to be in his movie - for nothing.
Inside Out has discovered a growing number of women are now prepared to buy a second-hand, or 'pre-loved', wedding dress in order to save cash. We hear from the Essex businesswoman who is encouraging brides to give her their bridal gowns to help raise money for their chosen charity.
