Armed Forces Day was officially yesterday - but many towns and cities in our region have made a weekend of the celebrations.
Today, there was a service featuring the Royal British Legion flagbearers, a parade down Coney Street, to Parliament Street where a salute took place, and there will be a whole host of entertainment in St Sampson's Square this afternoon.
This features the Band of The Yorkshire Regiment, the Military Wives Choir, a WWI cinema and even paintballing.
At around 11pm on Friday night police were called to Darley Avenue in Athersley to reports that a man had been stabbed.
This Evening and Tonight: Showers or longer spells of rain are forecast through the evening and night.
