Derby (i/ˈdɑːrbi/ DAR-bi, locally /ˈdɑːrbɛ/ DAR-beh) is a city and unitary authority area in the East Midlands region of England. It lies on the banks of the River Derwent in the south of the county of Derbyshire, of which it is the county town. In the 2011 census, the city had a population of 248,700 and 1,543,000 in the wider metro area.
As home to Lombe's Mill, an early British factory, Derby is considered a birthplace of the Industrial Revolution. With the arrival of the railways in the 19th century, and because of its strategic central location, the city grew to become a centre of the British rail industry.
Today, Derby is an internationally renowned centre for advanced transport manufacturing, home to the world’s second largest aero-engine manufacturer, Rolls-Royce, and Derby Litchurch Lane Works—the UK's only remaining train manufacturer. The Toyota Manufacturing UK's automobile headquarters is south west of the city at Burnaston.
The Roman camp of 'Derventio' was probably at Little Chester/Chester Green (grid reference SK353375), the site of the old Roman fort. Later the town was one of the 'Five Boroughs' (fortified towns) of the Danelaw, until it was captured by Lady Aethelflaed of Mercia in July 917, subsequent to which the town was annexed into the Kingdom of Mercia.

Birmingham residents get an on-the-doorstep lesson in archaeology when Tony Robinson and Mick Aston call in the experts to try and locate one of the most important sites in the history of the Industrial Revolution - Matthew Boulton's 18th century mint. But the task to find the site of the largest coin presser in the world isn't an easy one - given that it is buried beneath the houses and gardens of Soho, Handsworth.

Well, I did it last time, so here it is again. 5 years on from the last redesign at the beginning of their 2010 general election coverage, Sky News takes the opportunity once again to have a major refresh of its on-screen look. This was a scheduled recording, as I hoped to capture a bit more of the last moments of the previous look, but unfortunately all you get is a few frames of the last time the old ticker would be seen. Then it's a 30 second trailer going into an ad break, before a 'Sky News Special Report' that I've cut out here, used to fill up until 9pm. Then at 9pm, a lengthy 90 second promo for Sky News into the Decision Time theme and new graphics at the top of the hour. What follows is 20 or so minutes of the beginning of their coverage, right up until the first advert break.
What does the leadership battle within Britain's Labour Party tell us about socialist politics here and elsewhere in the world? The polls suggest the veteran MP Jeremy Corbyn is set to become the new Labour leader. His left-wing policies include increased public spending and state ownership of major industries. After a huge defeat for Labour in May's general election wouldn't Labour and other similar parties in Europe be more popular with voters by holding to the centre-ground? Zeinab Badawi talks to different wings of the Labour Party: former London Mayor Ken Livingstone and Charles Clarke who served as a Labour cabinet minister under Tony Blair.
