00:00 Here's today's Derbyshire Times video bulletin.

00:03 A Derbyshire mom is gifting her terminally ill daughter

00:06 a bucket list of experiences, including zip lining,

00:09 recording a song, and watching a musical

00:11 as she fears it could be her last Christmas.

00:15 Gail Iredale, who is 52, was left distraught

00:18 when her daughter Hannah, 20, was diagnosed

00:21 with glioblastoma, one of the most aggressive types

00:23 of brain tumor in September last year.

00:26 She was given a prognosis of 15 months

00:29 and has undergone a round of chemotherapy

00:30 and radiotherapy in the space of 13 months.

00:34 Doctors are concerned that Hannah's condition

00:36 could deteriorate in the new year,

00:38 so Gail has started a bucket list

00:40 filled with once-in-a-lifetime experiences

00:42 to give Hannah a Christmas to remember.

00:45 Through fundraising like a local Tombola,

00:47 pub quizzes, and a Just Giving page,

00:50 Gail has also managed to raise 250,000 pounds for Hannah

00:54 to hopefully give life-extending treatment in the US.

00:57 For more on this story and how to help

00:59 with the fundraising drive, see the Derbyshire Times website.

01:02 An emotional Danny Webb said it was a dream day

01:06 for Chesterfield FC as they beat Ligue 1

01:09 late in the orient 1-0 in the FA Cup over the weekend.

01:12 The Spyrites have now dumped two Ligue 1 sides

01:15 out of the competition and have a trip

01:17 to championship side Watford to look forward

01:19 in the next round.

01:21 Victory means that the Blues are in the third round

01:23 for the third successive year.

01:25 Webb said, "It shows how much we attack the FA Cup,

01:28 how good we are, and how much it means to the town.

01:31 Hopefully, in a few months, we can look back

01:33 and we will have won the league and had a cup run,

01:36 but the league is the priority

01:37 and there is still a long way to go.

01:39 I don't think the lads will take their foot off the gas,

01:41 but we are in a great position."
