Tomorrow marks a notable anniversary in Norwich - of something that didn't happen, rather than did.

On 3 December 1976, the Sex Pistols were due to play the first date of their Anarchy in the UK tour at the University of East Anglia.

But the gig never took place. University vice-chancellor Dr Frank Thistlethwaite banned them from playing "on the grounds of protecting the safety and security of persons and property" following their controversial TV appearance with Bill Grundy, two days earlier.

The incident happened at the Burger King branch on Westgate Street, when Michael Firth, 18, was injured by hot oil as he was clearing up, and was off work for five weeks.

The prosecution described the protective garments provided for the staff as being so large that they resembled a circus clown's outfit.

At an earlier hearing at Ipswich Magistrates Court, the branch franchise owner, KFG Quickserve Ltd, external, admitted two counts of breaching the Health and Safety at Work Act, external, by not keeping its employees safe.

Tendring District Council says a meeting is being held on Monday with the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) regarding the Legionella bacteria found at Lifestyles in Walton-on-the-Naze.

Police are appealing for witnesses to a collision on the A149 Dersingham by-pass at Snettisham yesterday afternoon.

The drivers of the Suzuki and the Jaguar were taken to the Queen Elizabeth Hospital where they remain in a critical but stable condition.

The third driver was treated at the scene and discharged.

The 27-year-old, who recently agreed a new contract at tomorrow's opponents Bristol City, scored twice against the Blues at Ashton Gate last season in a 2-1 win for the home team.

"We'll keep an eye on him, although it's hard to miss him given that he's about six foot seven," McCarthy joked.

"It's pretty hard to stop him though unfortunately, especially if the set-piece delivery is good and he times his run right."

We've been covering the story of a Norfolk harvest mouse which has a star role in Sunday's BBC1's Planet Earth II programme. 

Producer and director Chadden Hunter told us they're "very gentle and easy-to-work-with animals" that weigh the same as a two pence piece.

He said: "What we wanted to do was capture this amazing acrobatic display that they do, as they climb from one grass blade to another - they really do climb between the grass stems like a monkey through trees."

Here's some of the footage:

The body which overseas fishing along the Norfolk coast says a proposal to restrict the catching of shrimp in The Wash will protect the environment and keep the area sustainable. 

The Inshore Fisheries and Conservation Authority, external (IFCA) was criticised in Parliament yesterday by West Norfolk MP Sir Henry Bellingham who described the proposal as a "potential crisis" for the industry and claimed it was being forced through by the European Union. 

But the local boss of IFCA, Julian Gregory, said the British government has made a commitment to protect the waters around the coast and limiting the places where shrimp can be caught will help.

"We absolutely must meet the conservation objectives for a marine protected area," he said.

"We believe our proposals will enable us to do that in a way that still enables fishing activity to continue." 

Under the proposals, 14% of The Wash will be closed to shrimp fishing, but Mr Gregory said there would still be enough space for fishermen to catch elsewhere. 

The Walton-on-the-Naze Lifestyles leisure centre has been closed indefinitely this afternoon after Legionella bacteria was found.

A group of disabled people have protested outside a disability assessment centre in Norwich, which they say isn't fit for purpose.

Offices in St Francis House, in Queens Road, are used by the company Atos - which assesses disabled people for the government to see if they're entitled to financial support under the Personal Independence Payments scheme.

There's no on-site parking and the ramp at the back leads to a door which hasn't been widened to accommodate wheelchairs (see below).

Mark Harrison from the campaign group Equal Lives said he thought it was a disgrace.

"We have been on at Atos and the Department for Work and Pensions for the last 18 months, but they have refused to budge," he said.

"They even sent somebody done here to assess it. They accepted it is not accessable, but they are not going to do anything about it."

Atos said it recognises the parking at the centre could be improved and said an intercom is going to be installed to make it easier for people to use the back door.

An Essex care home that received an "inadequate" rating, external by the Care Quality Commission (CQC) last week is to close down.

Bupa, the company which runs the home, said Carnarvon in Clacton will shut its doors once new homes for residents have been found.

Bosses added the facility was closing due to issues of adapting the building and not because of the recent CQC report.
