Secret is out in your Star

Neil Thomas looks at some of the highlights of the past week and at what’s in store next week, in the latest Shropshire Star podcast.

During the week there were mixed results for Shropshire’s hospitals in the latest league tables while we also revealed the secret county connection with hit TV show The Apprentice.

Looking ahead, Neil looks at two high-profile court cases and - on a lighter note - at the annual Wrekin barrel race.

Business Editor Amy Bould profiles the new chairman of the Southwater events group which is working on the £1 billion development scheme for Telford Town Centre as well as looking at small and medium-sized enterprises in the county which seem to be beating the credit crunch.

Sports writer Chris Hudson looks at a busy week for Shropshire sport, with cricket success, plenty of comings and goings at AFC Telford United.

He also considers the latest transfer moves at Shrewsbury Town, as well as a national hockey final to look forward to for Shropshire men’s hockey team.
