  4. Audience for EU debate 'small but passionate'

    Andrew Sinclair

    BBC Look East political correspondent

    It may have been a small audience, but the 30 or so people who came along to BBC Radio 5 live's EU debate in Ipswich today were certainly passionate.

    5 Live EU debate

    After questions about immigration, whether human rights would be eroded by leaving the EU, and how there was very little "light" coming from both sides, the debate really came alive when June Mummery, from Lowestoft, raised the plight of the region's fishing industry.

    Other members of the audience barracked her as she accused people of not caring about the industry. 

    The panelists struggled to make themselves heard above the din. Presenter Nicky Campbell cut to the news headlines but the shouting continued. When 5 live rejoined us five minutes later they were still arguing.

    If we learnt nothing else today, we learnt that the public are now getting in this debate and some of them feel very passionate about it.

  8. Peregrine falcon chicks due to fly off tallest building within a fortnight

    The five newly-ringed peregrine falcon chicks at the top of The Mill in Ipswich are very close to fledging.

    David Lowe, a surveyor whose idea it was to incorporate a nesting box/shelf at the top of the building, said: "The chicks are almost fully feathered now and we would expect them to fly in a week to 10 days' time."

    The Mill, at 233ft (71m) high, is believed to be the tallest residential building in East Anglia.

  9. Peregrine falcon chicks 'show their true colours'

    Last time we saw these peregrine falcon chicks, as they were being ringed, they were almost completely white.

    Now, as this image from their nest at the top of The Mill on the Ipswich Waterfront shows, they're literally taking on their "true colours".
