00:00 Hi, I'm Laura Reed, the Deputy Features Editor at the Yorkshire Post.

00:04 I just thought I'd come on to talk you through some of the features that we've had online and in print this week.

00:09 So there's lots of long reads that you can go back and have a look at if you've missed them.

00:14 And we've of course got our Yorkshire Post magazine coming out as part of the weekend edition on Saturday,

00:21 which will have lots more features in there too.

00:25 So at the start of the week, we looked back at 50 years of Chatsworth farmyards at the Chatsworth Estate in Bakewell.

00:33 Those behind the popular farm reflected on half a century in operation and also look to the future,

00:40 urging people to buy local and support British farming.

00:45 Meanwhile, Wakefield-born Jane MacDonald revealed what viewers can expect from her new travel series, Lost in Japan.

00:52 She claims part of that she saw Mount Fuji while sitting naked in a hot spa.

00:58 We heard from Hull creative prop maker Natasha Nichols about her participation in the televised Ultimate Wedding Planner competition

01:06 and how she ended up getting into the business.

01:09 And we also spoke to the Leeds doctor who's at the forefront of trialling artificial intelligence within the NHS's breast screening service.

01:18 Dr. Nita Sharma is preparing for the start of a landmark study in the city over the coming weeks.

01:25 We looked at how a new campaign aims to make the Yorkshire coastline the number one destination to visit in the UK at all times of the year.

01:32 And that's got a particular focus on what's on offer in autumn and winter.

01:38 And we featured two Yorkshire contestants who are taking part in TV competition alone,

01:43 which sees them challenge themselves to get by in the wilderness.

01:47 In Arts and Culture, we looked at the National Theatre's streaming service and how it saves Yorkshire audiences a journey to London.

01:54 And we looked ahead to next month, when an exciting new immersive theatre piece about climate change and climate migration

02:00 will be performed by over 100 young people in a co-production between the National Youth Theatre and Leeds 2023.
