Five policemen in America are shot dead during a peaceful protest | :00:00. | :00:07. | |
in Dallas against black men being killed by officers. | :00:08. | :00:12. | |
Automatic gunfire rang out in downtown Dallas. | :00:13. | :00:16. | |
At first it was thought there were several | :00:17. | :00:18. | |
Hundreds of protestors fled in panic. | :00:19. | :00:22. | |
Seven police officers and two civilians were also injured. | :00:23. | :00:26. | |
I was walking, they started shooting. | :00:27. | :00:29. | |
All of the cops were getting shot, I saw cops bending over man, | :00:30. | :00:32. | |
like there had to be five or six cops all getting shot down. | :00:33. | :00:38. | |
This is the man now thought to be the lone gunman - | :00:39. | :00:41. | |
a former army reservist who'd served in Afghanistan. | :00:42. | :00:45. | |
The suspect said he was upset at white people. | :00:46. | :00:50. | |

Five police officers in America have been killed and seven others injured | :01:40. | :02:06. | |
after a gunman opened fire on them in Dallas during a protest. | :02:07. | :02:09. | |
The man suspected of carrying out the attacks is a 25-year-old former | :02:10. | :02:12. | |
army reservist who'd served in Afghanistan. | :02:13. | :02:16. | |
During a stand-off police say he told negotiators he wanted | :02:17. | :02:19. | |
to kill white people - especially white officers - | :02:20. | :02:22. | |
because he was upset about recent police shootings of black people. | :02:23. | :02:26. | |
The attack happened in downtown Dallas, near a college building, | :02:27. | :02:30. | |
as hundreds protested about the fatal shootings of two | :02:31. | :02:33. | |
After a long stand-off, the suspect was finally | :02:34. | :02:37. | |
killed by police - who deployed a bomb, | :02:38. | :02:40. | |
Our correspondent James Cook joins us now from Dallas. | :02:41. | :02:52. | |
Yes, police here are calling this an anti-police, anti-white, effectively | :02:53. | :03:00. | |
racist attack, perpetrated as you say by the US Army reservist, a man | :03:01. | :03:04. | |
who served time for his country in Afghanistan. Now, we understand | :03:05. | :03:07. | |
within the last couple of hours President Obama has spoken to the | :03:08. | :03:12. | |
police chief here in Dallas to get more details about this attack and | :03:13. | :03:17. | |
has also spoken to America's senior prosecutor, the Attorney General. As | :03:18. | :03:21. | |
the United States tries to make sense of another senseless attack. | :03:22. | :03:26. | |
In downtown Dallas, this is the moment a peaceful protest turned | :03:27. | :03:40. | |
into terror. THE crowd was demonstrating against policeman when | :03:41. | :03:43. | |
one man apparently decided to seek his own bloody revenge. There was | :03:44. | :03:49. | |
panic as the crowd and police tried to figure out who was shooting. | :03:50. | :03:54. | |
There's a cop down! There's four cops down. For? It's a sniper, from | :03:55. | :04:04. | |
up here. And as ever in the America of 2016... Somebody is really armed | :04:05. | :04:10. | |
to the teeth. The horror was documented minute by minute. Michael | :04:11. | :04:13. | |
was in the thick of it. They are shooting right now and there's an | :04:14. | :04:17. | |
officer down. It's coming from the right over there, from around these | :04:18. | :04:22. | |
buildings. He's started shooting, all of the cops were getting shot, | :04:23. | :04:29. | |
man. They had to be five or six cops all getting shot down. Police | :04:30. | :04:34. | |
sprinted towards the danger, heavily armed but at the same time suddenly | :04:35. | :04:38. | |
exposed and fragile. As police radio calls back to their control room | :04:39. | :04:45. | |
revealed. We've got a man, we don't know where he's at. He's in the | :04:46. | :04:50. | |
building right there. This footage seems to capture the gunman on the | :04:51. | :04:54. | |
street by now, murdering at point-blank range. In scenes that | :04:55. | :04:58. | |
are too distressing to show. Eventually, after a shoot out | :04:59. | :05:02. | |
lasting several hours, police sent in a robot to blow up a suspect. We | :05:03. | :05:09. | |
cornered one suspect and we tried to negotiate for several hours, | :05:10. | :05:15. | |
negotiations broke down. We had an exchange of gunfire with the | :05:16. | :05:23. | |
suspects. We saw no other option but to use our bomb robot. Police also | :05:24. | :05:28. | |
arrested two men and a woman but the chief says the suspects who died had | :05:29. | :05:32. | |
told negotiators he was working alone. He has been identified by US | :05:33. | :05:37. | |
media is 25-year-old Micah Xavier Johnson, a former US Army reserve is | :05:38. | :05:42. | |
seen here in pictures on his Facebook page. The suspect said he | :05:43. | :05:48. | |
was upset at white people. The suspect stated he wanted to kill | :05:49. | :05:51. | |
white people, especially white officers. And now the faces of the | :05:52. | :05:56. | |
dead are beginning to emerge. Brent Thompson was 43 years old and had | :05:57. | :06:00. | |
just got married. 40-year-old Michael Cole that his brother-in-law | :06:01. | :06:05. | |
was a big guy with a big heart, a man who always wanted to be a police | :06:06. | :06:11. | |
officer. Patrick said he was addicted to the thrill of the job. | :06:12. | :06:14. | |
His family said they were mourning a hero, remarks echoed by their | :06:15. | :06:17. | |
president. The entire city of Dallas is grieving. Police across America, | :06:18. | :06:25. | |
it's a tight-knit family, feels this -- feels this lost their call and we | :06:26. | :06:29. | |
are grieving with them. I would ask all Americans to say a prayer for | :06:30. | :06:32. | |
these officers and their families, to keep them in your thoughts. Some | :06:33. | :06:37. | |
of the police officers here have told me that they had friends who | :06:38. | :06:41. | |
didn't make it last night. And yet they are out here in force again | :06:42. | :06:45. | |
today, protecting a crime scene which sprawls for several blocks | :06:46. | :06:49. | |
around the building here where the shooting began. Father, we thank you | :06:50. | :06:56. | |
for the safety you have given to us everyday... Across Texas, across the | :06:57. | :07:00. | |
United States, they are praying. This was the deadliest attack on US | :07:01. | :07:05. | |
law enforcement since 9/11 macro. It reveals a country in turmoil, | :07:06. | :07:09. | |
convulsed by controversy about guns, race and criminal justice. James | :07:10. | :07:11. | |
Cook, BBC News, Dallas. The shooting took | :07:12. | :07:19. | |
place during a protest against the killings by police | :07:20. | :07:21. | |
of two black men in Louisiana The incidents have reignited debate | :07:22. | :07:23. | |
about excessive police force, gun control, and racism | :07:24. | :07:27. | |
within the criminal justice system. Our North America correspondent | :07:28. | :07:29. | |
Nick Bryant sent this This week, America celebrated | :07:30. | :07:31. | |
its national birthday, July the 4th, but what seems to be uniting this | :07:32. | :07:38. | |
country right now is not an idea, an aspiration, a dream, | :07:39. | :07:42. | |
but rather feelings St Paul, Minnesota, started | :07:43. | :07:45. | |
as a focal point last night for vigils and demonstrations | :07:46. | :07:52. | |
which unfolded in New York, No words can express the way | :07:53. | :07:55. | |
that we feel. And here the main speaker | :07:56. | :08:00. | |
was the mother of Philando Castile, the school cafeteria worker shot | :08:01. | :08:03. | |
dead by a policeman. Or yours the next day, | :08:04. | :08:07. | |
or your grandmother, You told him to get his ID sir, | :08:08. | :08:14. | |
his driver's license. The aftermath of her son's death | :08:15. | :08:37. | |
at the hands of a police officer streamed live on Facebook - | :08:38. | :08:40. | |
the cause of so much anguish. 50 years after the landmark civil | :08:41. | :08:45. | |
rights reforms of the 1960s, many African-Americans still feel | :08:46. | :08:54. | |
they are second-class citizens. It's fuelled the Black | :08:55. | :08:57. | |
Lives Matter campaign. Why, in 2016, we're still | :08:58. | :09:03. | |
talking about "I'm a man"? Just like back in the '50s, | :09:04. | :09:16. | |
'40s, '60s. Why do we have to keep | :09:17. | :09:21. | |
saying we're human? His life matters, her | :09:22. | :09:28. | |
life matters, right? The mood this morning | :09:29. | :09:31. | |
in St Paul was very different. A handful of people where yesterday | :09:32. | :09:34. | |
thousands had gathered. But fury quickly came to the surface | :09:35. | :09:39. | |
over the events here and in Dallas. And I'm sorry to their families, | :09:40. | :09:44. | |
because you feel what we feel. But I'm going to tell you something | :09:45. | :09:49. | |
and don't think this is insensitive Many hoped that the election | :09:50. | :09:59. | |
of the country's first African-American president | :10:00. | :10:05. | |
could heal the breach in race relations, that it would | :10:06. | :10:07. | |
usher in what was called Let's go back to our correspondent | :10:08. | :10:09. | |
James Cook, in Dallas. What more are we learning about the | :10:10. | :10:30. | |
man suspected of being behind these attacks in Dallas? Yes, we're just | :10:31. | :10:37. | |
learning a little more in the past few seconds, actually, from the | :10:38. | :10:41. | |
police here in Dallas about Micah Johnson. Police have been at his | :10:42. | :10:44. | |
house, they've been searching his house in Texas, and we are told now | :10:45. | :10:49. | |
that they believe he had no criminal record and that in that house they | :10:50. | :10:52. | |
have found what they call a ballistics best, that is to say a | :10:53. | :10:56. | |
bullet-proof vest, rifles and ammunition, that they have been | :10:57. | :11:00. | |
found in the house of the suspect. They have also formally confirmed | :11:01. | :11:04. | |
for the first time his identity as Micah Johnson, this 25-year-old US | :11:05. | :11:08. | |
Army veteran who served in Afghanistan. At this stage police | :11:09. | :11:12. | |
have been saying that there are no known links to any known extremist | :11:13. | :11:16. | |
groups, so you can decide for yourself if you want to call this a | :11:17. | :11:20. | |
terrorist attack or not but what police are saying is they are | :11:21. | :11:23. | |
steering away from that kind of language and talking about an | :11:24. | :11:26. | |
individual. Still unclear whether he acted with any support from others, | :11:27. | :11:31. | |
and what is really extraordinary and tragic as well is that 50 years ago, | :11:32. | :11:37. | |
half a century ago now, just a couple of blocks from here an | :11:38. | :11:42. | |
American president, John F. Kennedy, was assassinated, shot by a sniper | :11:43. | :11:46. | |
high up in a building and yet 50 years on the United States is still | :11:47. | :11:51. | |
grappling with these issues, still struggling with so many of the | :11:52. | :11:54. | |
issues that divided the country in that time. It is not yet a united | :11:55. | :11:59. | |
States. Women will now be allowed to serve | :12:00. | :12:03. | |
in close combat roles in the UK The Prime Minister confirmed | :12:04. | :12:06. | |
the move after a government review There are around 7000 women | :12:07. | :12:10. | |
in British Army currently, but some research suggestions only | :12:11. | :12:13. | |
a small proportion would pass the physical tests | :12:14. | :12:15. | |
required for the new roles. Our defence correspondent | :12:16. | :12:18. | |
Jonathan Beale has more. Women have already served and died | :12:19. | :12:23. | |
on the front line in Afghanistan. But only in support roles | :12:24. | :12:27. | |
like medics and bomb disposal experts, and not in the infantry | :12:28. | :12:30. | |
or armoured units. But ministers say it's now | :12:31. | :12:35. | |
time to lift that ban. We are not lowering any | :12:36. | :12:39. | |
of the standards. We are just recognising that | :12:40. | :12:41. | |
actually there are a lot of women in the Armed Forces that can do | :12:42. | :12:44. | |
these combat roles, do them perfectly well, | :12:45. | :12:47. | |
and at the moment they are not allowed to simply | :12:48. | :12:49. | |
because they are women. We join the Army's new intake | :12:50. | :12:53. | |
of officer recruits on their final Here, the barriers have already been | :12:54. | :12:56. | |
broken down, with women now But even among these future Army | :12:57. | :13:08. | |
leaders, there are still questions about the physical demands that | :13:09. | :13:12. | |
will be required of women in the infantry, such | :13:13. | :13:15. | |
as carrying heavy loads, Physically, I wouldn't be able to do | :13:16. | :13:18. | |
it, because of the weight. Not because I still wouldn't | :13:19. | :13:26. | |
want to do it. But I just know that physically | :13:27. | :13:29. | |
I wouldn't be able to. The infantry carry 25 kilos, | :13:30. | :13:32. | |
and the corps carry 15. So females would normally | :13:33. | :13:34. | |
only carry 15. And some people do | :13:35. | :13:36. | |
struggle with that. If you up that weight, | :13:37. | :13:38. | |
they find it a lot more There are some males who have not | :13:39. | :13:40. | |
hit the fitness standard here, so they are not going | :13:41. | :13:46. | |
to go infantry. There are some females that won't | :13:47. | :13:48. | |
hit it but there are some that will, and I think they should have just | :13:49. | :13:52. | |
the same opportunity The reality is few are | :13:53. | :13:54. | |
likely to join. Even the Army's own figures show | :13:55. | :13:58. | |
that fewer than 5% of those women already in the Army would meet | :13:59. | :14:02. | |
the physical demands needed It's being done purely | :14:03. | :14:05. | |
for political correctness. The Army, the infantry, is the last | :14:06. | :14:12. | |
bastion of non-gender equality. I'm not saying that's a good thing | :14:13. | :14:14. | |
in society in general. But I think this is one area | :14:15. | :14:17. | |
where we should make that distinction and I think we will come | :14:18. | :14:22. | |
to regret what I consider to be But those fears have been pushed | :14:23. | :14:25. | |
to one side. The head of the Army says he wants | :14:26. | :14:31. | |
to maximise opportunities And by lifting the ban, | :14:32. | :14:34. | |
Britain is now falling into line There's further uncertainty | :14:35. | :14:40. | |
for British steel workers tonight, after the Indian company Tata Steel | :14:41. | :14:50. | |
announced it's to postpone plans to sell some of its UK operations, | :14:51. | :14:52. | |
including the Port Talbot plant. The firm had been considering | :14:53. | :14:57. | |
several bids for its British assets but instead it's to seek | :14:58. | :15:00. | |
a partnership with a From Port Talbot, our industry | :15:01. | :15:02. | |
correspondent John Moylan reports. When Tata announced its intention to | :15:03. | :15:18. | |
sell its UK steel business in March, it sent shock waves through the | :15:19. | :15:22. | |
industry. Today, that sale appeared to have gone up in smoke, as Tata | :15:23. | :15:28. | |
confirmed it was in talks to combine its European steel interests with | :15:29. | :15:30. | |
those of one of the biggest conglomerates in Europe. It is a | :15:31. | :15:37. | |
German powerhouse with 600 and businesses worldwide. It owns the | :15:38. | :15:41. | |
biggest steel plant in Europe and its steel activities employ 27,000 | :15:42. | :15:46. | |
workers. But how does the UK steel industry fit into the plan? Today, | :15:47. | :15:52. | |
the Business Secretary was in Mumbai to meet Tata's chief executive. I am | :15:53. | :15:58. | |
confident that Tata is doing all it can, we are providing all the | :15:59. | :16:02. | |
support we can, and I am in courage by the news that they are talking to | :16:03. | :16:07. | |
a partner and thinking about forming this joint venture. Because having | :16:08. | :16:11. | |
another option is just the kind of news we need. But in Port Talbot, | :16:12. | :16:16. | |
today's news did nothing to reassure the 5000 workers. They want to know | :16:17. | :16:22. | |
what to make of that. I do know what to make of that. It creates | :16:23. | :16:27. | |
uncertainty, prolongs the agony of the last few months. They have been | :16:28. | :16:30. | |
told one minute they are not wanted, the next minute that they are | :16:31. | :16:33. | |
wanted, but they are bringing another partner into the scenario. | :16:34. | :16:37. | |
It is an uncertain situation that we now face. Ironically, the prospects | :16:38. | :16:43. | |
for steel making here in the UK have been improving. The price of steel | :16:44. | :16:50. | |
on global markets has been rising, and the weakening pound is also | :16:51. | :16:53. | |
making it easier for us to sell steel abroad. Cutbacks at Port | :16:54. | :16:57. | |
Talbot have also helped to stem losses. Demand has increased, prices | :16:58. | :17:07. | |
have increased. And the losses have reduced. But in the longer term, the | :17:08. | :17:11. | |
Brexit vote means we are very much uncertain about the future of our | :17:12. | :17:15. | |
trading relationships with Europe. And that may be a challenge to Tata. | :17:16. | :17:21. | |
Tata will go ahead with the sale of its specialist steels and pipes | :17:22. | :17:26. | |
business, based in Hartlepool, Stocksbridge and rubber room. As for | :17:27. | :17:29. | |
the rest, and the other 9000 workers, tonight the future is far | :17:30. | :17:32. | |
from clear. There's been another major | :17:33. | :17:34. | |
bomb attack in Iraq. At least 35 people have been killed | :17:35. | :17:36. | |
after gunmen and suicide bombers stormed a Shia | :17:37. | :17:39. | |
shrine outside Baghdad. So-called Islamic State has | :17:40. | :17:40. | |
claimed responsibility. It comes days after nearly 300 | :17:41. | :17:43. | |
people were killed in the worst single bombing in the Iraqi capital | :17:44. | :17:46. | |
since the fall of Saddam Our Middle East editor Jeremy Bowen | :17:47. | :17:49. | |
looks at the mounting security The grief was for the dead, because | :17:50. | :18:15. | |
the future is frightening, and because of what has happened to a | :18:16. | :18:24. | |
much loved shrine. So-called Islamic State says that its men carried out | :18:25. | :18:29. | |
the attack, four of them, witnesses said, using grenades and guns, until | :18:30. | :18:37. | |
they blew themselves up. He pointed out the bullet holes. This is one of | :18:38. | :18:41. | |
the most important Shia Muslims shrines in Iraq, targeted by an | :18:42. | :18:46. | |
Islamic State suicide squad, Sunni Muslim extremists. | :18:47. | :18:57. | |
The atmosphere was sad, rather than angry. Relieved that the tomb was | :18:58. | :19:09. | |
spared. They said, only God has the authority to cut the rope of life. | :19:10. | :19:17. | |
TRANSLATION: Islamic State want to cause sectarian trouble and grab | :19:18. | :19:20. | |
headlines. They are trying to show the world that their state still | :19:21. | :19:25. | |
exists. The more that Shia and Sunni Muslims hate, the more power Islamic | :19:26. | :19:31. | |
State believes it can retain. The jihadists of Islamic State have been | :19:32. | :19:35. | |
hitting back hard because they are under attack and losing ground. They | :19:36. | :19:38. | |
know that if they are beaten in Iraq, it will be much harder for | :19:39. | :19:42. | |
them to hang on to what they have in Syria, and that will be the end of | :19:43. | :19:46. | |
their so-called caliphate. All this, though, leaves the people of Iraq, | :19:47. | :19:50. | |
once again, at a very dangerous crossroads. In Baghdad, Shia and | :19:51. | :19:58. | |
Sunni Muslims prayed together at the site of last weekend's bomb, which | :19:59. | :20:05. | |
killed almost 300 people. But as dusk approached, Shia mourning | :20:06. | :20:12. | |
rituals took over the streets near the bomb site. The question now is | :20:13. | :20:16. | |
whether their leaders choose to retaliate. Shia militants, mostly | :20:17. | :20:20. | |
backed by Iran, have been equal partners in ten years of sectarian | :20:21. | :20:28. | |
killing. At the local hospital, Shia families said they were attacked by | :20:29. | :20:31. | |

killed. These men were distraught about their friend, killed at his | :20:51. | :20:57. | |

future is not a place to look forward to in Iraq any more. It is | :21:04. | :21:08. | |
something to dread, for people of every religious sect. Jeremy Bowen, | :21:09. | :21:12. | |
BBC News. A brief look at some | :21:13. | :21:16. | |
of the day's other news stories. More than 3000 hate crimes | :21:17. | :21:19. | |
and incidents were reported to police forces across the UK | :21:20. | :21:21. | |
in the second half of June That's a 42% rise compared | :21:22. | :21:24. | |
with the same period in 2015. One of those attacks | :21:25. | :21:28. | |
was in Plymouth, where a Polish family had their garden | :21:29. | :21:31. | |
shed set alight. They say they've been subjected | :21:32. | :21:33. | |

a 52-year-old former RAF More than 600 British | :22:22. | :22:23. | |
troops are to be stationed in Eastern Europe, as part | :22:24. | :22:30. | |
of an expanded Nato force designed The deployment, part of a contingent | :22:31. | :22:33. | |
of 4000 troops, was approved by Nato It was the first Nato summit | :22:34. | :22:42. | |
since the Brexit vote and David Cameron today insisted | :22:43. | :22:45. | |
Britain's standing in the world had Last month, British soldiers | :22:46. | :22:48. | |
were among 30,000 Nato troops training in Poland to counter | :22:49. | :23:00. | |
what the Alliance sees Nato leaders at their summit | :23:01. | :23:04. | |
are unsettled by Britain's decision to leave their partner organisation, | :23:05. | :23:09. | |
the European Union. President Obama, meeting EU leaders, | :23:10. | :23:14. | |
called it a critical moment. The vote in the United Kingdom | :23:15. | :23:19. | |
to leave the EU has created uncertainty about the future | :23:20. | :23:21. | |
of European integration. Unfortunately, this has led some | :23:22. | :23:25. | |
to suggest that the entire edifice of European security | :23:26. | :23:27. | |
and prosperity is crumbling. So David Cameron is mounting | :23:28. | :23:32. | |
operation reassurance, telling me Britain's allies have | :23:33. | :23:34. | |
nothing to fear. Britain may be leaving | :23:35. | :23:38. | |
the European Union but we're not turning our back on Europe | :23:39. | :23:40. | |
and we are not turning our back Britain is the second largest | :23:41. | :23:43. | |
contributor to Nato, And Britain is backing words | :23:44. | :23:46. | |
with extra troops, as Nato sends four multinational battalions | :23:47. | :23:54. | |
to the vulnerable Baltic states and to Poland, Britain | :23:55. | :23:57. | |
will contribute 500 troops The message to Russia, the Alliance | :23:58. | :24:00. | |
will defend its eastern borders. There's no question David Cameron | :24:01. | :24:09. | |
really does need to bolster, to reinforce Britain's | :24:10. | :24:12. | |
position within Nato. After all, at the height of the EU | :24:13. | :24:14. | |
referendum campaign, five former Nato Secretary General | :24:15. | :24:17. | |
said this in very stark terms. "Brexit would undoubtedly lead | :24:18. | :24:24. | |
to a loss of British influence, undermine Nato and give succour | :24:25. | :24:27. | |
to the West's enemies". Downing Street hailed that statement | :24:28. | :24:31. | |
at the time. Russia stands to gain from any | :24:32. | :24:33. | |
weakness in the West, as it too steps up military | :24:34. | :24:40. | |
training, accusing Nato If one party deploys certain | :24:41. | :24:43. | |
potentials, the other party And this is the beginning | :24:44. | :24:49. | |
of an arms race. Tonight, a working dinner | :24:50. | :24:53. | |
for the Nato leaders focused The Polish hosts very | :24:54. | :25:03. | |
pointedly chose the same room where in 1955 their Soviet masters | :25:04. | :25:06. | |

through to his third Wimbledon final after defeating Tomas Berdych | :25:56. | :25:58. | |
in straight sets. He'll now meet the world number | :25:59. | :26:01. | |
seven Milos Raonic in Sunday's final, after the Canadian knocked | :26:02. | :26:04. | |
Roger Federer out of the championships in | :26:05. | :26:07. | |
a dramatic five-set match. Strain and crane to | :26:08. | :26:10. | |
get any view you can. It's worth it, to see and be seen | :26:11. | :26:16. | |
near the great man. Andy Murray practised | :26:17. | :26:19. | |
in public view on Friday. All this clamour is now | :26:20. | :26:22. | |
all so familiar. There he is, in the middle | :26:23. | :26:25. | |
of that, Andy Murray Still, no one else was going | :26:26. | :26:30. | |
to protect him on court against Tomas Berdych, | :26:31. | :26:34. | |
and the players have some recent | :26:35. | :26:36. | |
interesting history. Andy Murray's wife had previously | :26:37. | :26:40. | |
aimed some words at Berdych That was a while ago | :26:41. | :26:49. | |
when the players were anxious All friends now, and the close | :26:50. | :26:53. | |
quarters stuff went Murray's way. Berdych is a powerful man | :26:54. | :26:59. | |
but Murray is no weakling. In the second set, Berdych, | :27:00. | :27:01. | |
the 10th seed, threatened, but Murray may just be in the form | :27:02. | :27:09. | |
of his life. Murray closed it out, | :27:10. | :27:12. | |
6-3, 6-3, 6-3, to reach The older you get, you never know | :27:13. | :27:25. | |
how many chances you're going to have to play in a grand | :27:26. | :27:32. | |
slam final, so you want to make And I'm glad I managed | :27:33. | :27:36. | |
to get through today. Roger Federer, age defier, | :27:37. | :27:42. | |
was perplexed by his own Him, like a White Cliff of Dover | :27:43. | :27:45. | |
tumbling into the sea. To beat him in five sets, | :27:46. | :27:53. | |
Canadian Milos Raonic had to be persistent and he had | :27:54. | :27:57. | |
to be brilliant. Of course, it isn't for Murray, | :27:58. | :27:59. | |
and that could be decisive The Wales football team | :28:00. | :28:04. | |
have received a hero's welcome after they flew | :28:05. | :28:13. | |
into Cardiff this afternoon. Tens of thousands of | :28:14. | :28:16. | |
fans lined the streets, to congratulate their team | :28:17. | :28:18. | |
after their performance Wales reached the semifinals, | :28:19. | :28:20. | |

to wind its way through A special moment for the players | :28:59. | :29:04. | |
singing to fans, whose voices rang out in France for longer | :29:05. | :29:15. | |
than they could have imagined. It's what it means | :29:16. | :29:20. | |
to the whole country. It's nice for us to say a little | :29:21. | :29:23. | |
thank you for supporting us and being there with us | :29:24. | :29:27. | |

we'll all never forget. Thousands walked alongside them | :29:29. | :29:33. | |
as they made their way across the River Taff | :29:34. | :29:36. | |
towards the home of Welsh football. It's extraordinary, how proud | :29:37. | :29:39. | |
a nation we are and we see these people and when we give them | :29:40. | :29:44. | |
something to shout about, Yes, brilliant, | :29:45. | :29:46. | |
absolutely brilliant. The boys have done really | :29:47. | :29:51. | |
well out there in France I think just one of pride | :29:52. | :29:54. | |
really, what the lads To celebrate with the fans like this | :29:55. | :30:02. | |
makes me feel proud. These players have had an amazing | :30:03. | :30:10. | |
connection with their fans and right now you can sense the emotion | :30:11. | :30:13. | |
and excitement in the crowd. A thunderclap in the | :30:14. | :30:17. | |
sunshine and the party A concert with the Manic Street | :30:18. | :30:23. | |
Preachers and then this, the moment the 30,000 fans had been | :30:24. | :30:32. | |
waiting for - their team. The players and the nation | :30:33. | :30:41. | |
dared to dream. They hope this will be the beginning | :30:42. | :30:45. | |
of the journey for Welsh football. Sian Lloyd, BBC News, | :30:46. | :30:48. | |
