Shops affected by New Ferry explosion begin to reopen

Shops affected by the suspected gas explosion in Wirral last month have begun to reopen their doors to customers.

A fund has been set up aiming to raise ten thousand pounds to help New Ferry get back on its feet.

But, nine days on, there's still no word from investigators as to the exact cause of the blast, and some remain without access to their homes and businesses, as our Merseyside correspondent Andy Bonner reports.
