This shop in Hull looks pretty ordinary, but if you visit the store it's likely you will get more than you bargained for... It's all down to the shop owner who is putting 'cheerful' into cheap and cheerful! @peterofthelane paid a visit.

It's been over 20 years since the taser was introduced to police forces, but it's still a controversial tool that splits opinion. With volatile situations becoming more frequent, do officers feel they need this additional layer of protection more than ever? @peterofthelane has

Two men have been sentenced to four years and three months in prison for illegally cutting down the world famous tree at the Sycamore Gap. In court, the judge said Daniel Graham and Adam Carruthers "revelled" in their notoriety. @peterofthelane reports.

And this is the remaining stump at Hadrian’s Wall today. You can see new growth sprouting and seeds have been used to grow new saplings from the original 150 year old tree. @5_News

4 years in jail for the pair who chopped down the world famous Sycamore Gap tree. The judge said it was “bravado and thrill seeking”. Daniel Graham, on the left, filmed their crime while Adam Carruthers felled the tree. Today we heard they both finally admit their guilt. @5_News

The Netherlands has the world's highest rate of assisted dying, after making it legal in 2002. But are there lessons for MPs voting on the law in England and Wales? In a special report @peterofthelane has been speaking to families and experts. @WaardigSterven | @amsterdamumc
