00:00 Good morning everyone, I'm Darren Burke, one of your live team and digital reporters for
00:04 the Doncaster Free Press, bringing you some of the main headlines in Doncaster this Wednesday.
00:09 Starting today with the news that peacocks are continuing to divide residents of a Doncaster
00:13 village. The birds, which have been resident in Finanley for more than 40 years, have split
00:19 opinion right down the middle of the village with some fans and some haters, and it comes
00:23 after a car was recently damaged by the birds. We've got details of that story on our Facebook
00:29 page and our website. Also in the news today, plans are back in the pipeline for a new £5
00:35 million restaurant and cafe complex at Doncaster's Sandal Park. The long-running saga has been
00:40 now dragging on for more than eight years, and we've got details of the latest update.
00:45 And there are also plans to bring a dramatic knife angel sculpture to Doncaster. The sculpture,
00:51 which is made of 100,000 knives, which were used in stabbings and murders across the UK,
00:57 is touring the UK to highlight the issue of knife crime, and it will be coming to Doncaster.
01:01 We've got details of that. Stay in touch with our Facebook page and our website for everything
01:06 else that's going on in Doncaster throughout the day, and have a great day. And come on
01:10 England as the Lionesses go for glory against Australia in this morning's Women's World
01:15 Cup semi-final.
