Curve Success, Grooming & Future City Trains

Start your day with the latest news and updates, with Jim and Jo at breakfast.

"The most expensive and disastrous project this city has ever seen in its history" - is how Leicester's city mayor Sir Peter Soulsby once described the Curve Theatre.
But just 12 months away from its 10th anniversary, the venue is celebrating a stunning year - a 150 per cent jump in audience numbers plus an impressive annual turnover of over Β£11 million.

Many of this morning's front pages report on a decision by Northumbria Police to pay more than ten thousand pounds to a convicted child rapist to infiltrate a sex grooming gang.

We take a look at how Leicester is future-proofing itself, this morning we focus on transport.
