BBC Lincolnshire Live

Here's Peter Levy with a look at what's on the programme at 18.30 on BBC1

• Headlines from our Lincolnshire newsroom this evening:
• Woman who was trapped under a lorry in Lincoln earlier remains in a 'serious condition'
• Man jailed for nine years after 'nearly blinding' uncle in row over cash in Gainsborough
• Roads closed near Louth and Boston after separate serious road collisions

There's been another accident on the county's roads this afternoon - you're being asked to avoid the area. More details as we get them.

Grantham and Stamford MP Nick Boles has been reacting to the news that a firm in his constituency has placed hundreds of jobs at risk.

Totemic is one of Grantham's largest private-sector employers and says up to 500 jobs are under threat because of changes in market conditions.

Mr Boles told the BBC: "It is very disappointing that Totemic is having to contemplate making redundancies. 

"I have been working very closely with senior management in the last two years to help them secure changes in the regulation of the debt advice and debt management sector." 

There's now a diversion via the A151 to avoid the scene of an accident which has closed the road between the A16 junction in Fosdyke and the Manor House Road junction in Saracen's Head. The A17 remains closed and there's heavy traffic in the area.

More details now on that accident on the A17 at Fosdyke. 

It involves a jack-knifed lorry and another accident. 

The road remains closed in both directions between the A16 junction in Fosdyke and the Manor House Road junction in Saracen's Head.

Here's a lovely picture of Tattershall Castle - the National Trust property in the county is opening for free on Sunday as part of this week's programme of Heritage Open Days.

It's one of many attractions which you can visit during the festival which starts tomorrow and ends on Sunday. More details of other venues opening their doors can be found here.  

A drug addict who almost blinded his uncle in a row over £20 in Lincolnshire has been jailed for nine years. 

Lincoln Crown Court heard that Matthew Leachman attacked his 58-year-old relative at his home in Gainsborough. 

At one point he pressed his eye ball with a thumb. 

Leachman 41,who lives in Northampton, admitted three charges. 

Post mortem examinations are due to take place today on a man and woman whose bodies were found at a house in North East Lincolnshire. 

The couple were discovered at the home in New Waltham after the alarm was raised in the early hours of yesterday morning.

Police say they aren't looking for anyone else in connection with the deaths.

Here are the top stories from our Lincolnshire newsroom:

• Man charged after five-hour firearms standoff in Immingham on Monday
• Staff at Grantham debt advice firm face redundancy consultation in "reorganisation"
• Blitz nurse buried in unmarked grave for 76 years finally given headstone by villagers

Here's a lovely story... Our reporter Alex Rhodes has been in Stow near Lincoln, where a nurse has finally been given the headstone she deserves.

Agatha Credland was killed in the London Blitz, and was buried in an unmarked grave.

But today villagers have honoured her finally with a headstone - after using old parish plans to find the exact location of her grave.

It's even more poignant because today marks the 76th anniversary since her death.

It's all for a good cause Karl - but the feather boa does not match that tie!

A man's been charged with eight offences after a stand-off with police in a residential street in Immingham earlier this week.

Richard Jackson, 37, of Ancholme Avenue, is due to appear before Grimsby magistrates today.
