chris ellis reports from nottingham.tmas market, hundreds of people enjoying the stalls, but the crowd caused concerns. people were milling around together, no social distancing at all. people defecating in doorways, which was totally unacceptable, but with hospitality closed, there are no toilets for people to go to, and they weren't wearing masks. today, the shutters we re wearing masks. today, the shutters were down as stallholders were told a temporary closure was put in place. it's a massive blow, and we haven't done any markets. every one has been cancelled apart from this, so we we re has been cancelled apart from this, so we were relying on this. i'll manage, but it's going to be a big struggle, yeah, bickle a big struggle, yeah, bickle a big struggle for us all. a decision will be taken later as to when the market will reopen. it was due to run until christmas eve. chris ellis, bbc east today, nottingham. thousands of turkeys are to be culled after a second outbreak of highly contagious bird flu in norfolk. the

let's end and oh dear this is as the nottingham post puts it what were they thinking?is the story of they thinking? this is the story of the weekend. this is a very odd story. nottingham is in tier 3 which means pubs and restaurants cannot open it can only do take away limited as that in so you have a public event spending thousands of pounds ensuring that their menus are covered secure but not having the ability to open but wondering why their local council organises a christmas market and inevitably huge numbers turn out. the shops during the england wide lockdown were closed but now only a couple of weeks away from christmas and if you open up the shops you will get people coming along and if you open up people coming along and if you open upa people coming along and if you open up a christmas market, even more difficult to control the inflow of people into, i think it was inevitable this was going to happen. i think nottingham council did have a little bit of a think though i'm told that that has been cancelled until the end of the year. just in time for christmas.

nottingham is in tier 3 which means pubs and restaurants

nottingham has the most small businesses per square mile of any city.n was because the city was hiving. earlier in the week, i warned on behalf of businesses in the city and 400 businesses contacted me to say they were really unhappy with this proposed market. they foresaw the issues that were going to happen, and they asked me to arbitrate on behalf of the council, on behalf of them and the council, but the council want listening to the businesses, and the impact it had on the city has been hugely negative, all the bad pr and press we have received as a result of putting this market on, when actually it should have been halted and could have been. a lot of people speaking to the media said they were flabbergasted that this was allowed to go ahead, bearing in mind it is tier 3. what reason is with the council have given for signing this one off, though? presumably they we re one off, though? presumably they were expecting social distancing rules to be followed, and clearly they weren't. absolutely. the council said the safety advisory group had reviewed

professor evans, a question from an in nottingham, she wants from anne in nottingham, she wants to know virus to other people? thank you very much. really good question. when we say ensure, the answer is no. reduce the likelihood, the answer is almost undoubtedly yes. it's very difficult to measure the transmission to other people and so the best we can do is measure the virus levels and those who have been vaccinated and in the pfizer trials they have only measured the virus levels in those who have symptoms. in the oxford astrazeneca trials they measured asymptomatic people and it was clear there was reduction in the virus level in those who are asymptomatic. so, the answer is, it will reduce the transmission but it won't make it zero. so it doesn't mean we can get rid of the distancing and masks, even if people have been vaccinated, ourselves and those around us. very interesting. dr pankhania, andy from sheffield wants to know is it safe to have the vaccine if you have epilepsy? a very specific question there. i think so. my answer to andy is there is no reason why that vaccine, the

and that's not to say that when leicester went into tighter restrictions, or nottingham or liverpool or greater manchester, those were also big news stories for bbc news. and i would say that we covered those in great detail using our specialist correspondents and those correspondents based around the country to reflect the regional nature. but this week, the decision that london was to go into the tightest of restrictions just as we approached london was a big, big news story. 20 minutes of a 30 minute bulletin, as one of our viewers noticed? all those people have to do is look at our coverage in the round. this week alone those two there was an extremely compelling reports from thomas in burnley. we've had a whole panorama on liverpool — just on liverpool — so i don't dispute that this week has been a big week for london. but i would say that if you look at the coverage that we've done over the course of this pandemic, i think we have reflected the changes and the restrictions that people around the country — and frankly, we are uniquely placed to do that and we have a responsibili
