SNEAK PEEK: What inside this week's Chad...?

In news we have the latest on the aftermath of the devastating fire which has gutted a Mansfield Church, plus dramatic photos of the blaze itself, as well as how a quick-thinking teen saved his mum after their house went up in flames.

There’s a look at how police have vowed to crackdown on shoplifters with a zero-tolerance policy which could see crooks booted out of the town centre completely.

We also have a special investigation into shocking figures which reveal that almost £2 million worth of debt owed to the district councils in Mansfield and Ashfield has been written off.

We’ve some great competition prizes to give away, including a £250 makeover and shopping spree at the Four Seasons centre, tickets to the national pet show and free Nixie kids books.

We talk to legendary singer Tony Christie as he prepares for a show at Mansfield’s Palace Theatre, while in sport we look at how derby delight could be a turning point for the Stags.
