As employers in Suffolk are urged to take on ex-offenders, Terry Baxter hears a former prisoner's story. New figures show only 55% of employers in the East of England would consider interviewing a candidate with a criminal record for a job.

There are fresh calls for greater investment in Suffolk's main railway line. All of Suffolk and Norfolk's MPs have signed a letter which has been sent to the secretary of state for transport.

Terry hears from the cast of Dick Turpin's last ride, which premieres at the Theatre Royal in Bury St Edmunds tonight. It tells the story of the poacher, thief and murderer who finally swung from the York gallows in 1739.
