Another attack in south Germany, a suicide bombing outside a music | :00:00. | :00:07. | |
festival, the third attack in that part of the country in a week. | :00:08. | :00:11. | |
A failed Syrian asylum seeker blew himself up last night, | :00:12. | :00:14. | |
He's believed to have supported so-called Islamic State. | :00:15. | :00:20. | |
I saw one older gentleman laying on the floor with blood on his head. | :00:21. | :00:23. | |
I was able to push past the security who were trying to tell me to go | :00:24. | :00:30. | |
away, saying, "My sister is still in there. | :00:31. | :00:32. | |
The spate of attacks in such a short time has left Germany questioning | :00:33. | :00:36. | |
questioning why it has become a target for violence. | :00:37. | :00:38. | |
An MPs' report into the collapse of BHS criticises its former | :00:39. | :00:42. | |
One MP calls for him to pay back the pension deficit. | :00:43. | :00:48. | |
If he values his knighthood, wants any chance of keeping it, he ought | :00:49. | :00:55. | |
to stop messing around, get off his boats, get back | :00:56. | :00:57. | |
to the pension regulator and sign a whacking huge cheque. | :00:58. | :01:00. | |

Alistair Cook's men beat Pakistan by 330 runs with a day to spare. | :01:20. | :01:46. | |
Germany is to step up security across airports, | :01:47. | :01:52. | |
railway stations and other public places after three violent attacks | :01:53. | :01:55. | |
in the south of the country in the space of a week, | :01:56. | :01:57. | |
all of which have targeted innocent bystanders. | :01:58. | :01:59. | |
According to the police, the Syrian man who blew himself up | :02:00. | :02:04. | |
yesterday outside a music festival in Ansbach, injuring 15 people, had | :02:05. | :02:07. | |
left a video pledging his allegiance to so-called Islamic State. | :02:08. | :02:11. | |
The three attacks appear unrelated but they've led to further questions | :02:12. | :02:14. | |
in Germany over its open-door policy for refugees. | :02:15. | :02:17. | |
Our correspondent Chris Buckler is in Ansbach. | :02:18. | :02:19. | |
His report contains some flash photography. | :02:20. | :02:25. | |
In a courtyard of one of Bavaria's most picturesque towns is the chalk | :02:26. | :02:28. | |
And the drinks abandoned by people when he blew himself up. | :02:29. | :02:40. | |
He tried to enter this square, which was packed with people | :02:41. | :02:43. | |
When he was stopped by security, he detonated the bomb | :02:44. | :02:47. | |
he was carrying just outside its gates. | :02:48. | :02:50. | |
I ran back towards the concert entrance. | :02:51. | :02:52. | |
I saw one older gentleman, laying on the floor | :02:53. | :02:54. | |
I was able to push past the security were trying to tell me | :02:55. | :02:59. | |
to go away, saying, "My sister is still in there. | :03:00. | :03:02. | |
I think I heard that there were six or seven people on the floor | :03:03. | :03:06. | |
The explosion caused panic in a country already on edge. | :03:07. | :03:13. | |
The last week in Germany has seen a mass shooting in Munich, | :03:14. | :03:18. | |
a machete attack and a teenage asylum seeker injure five people | :03:19. | :03:21. | |
And this bombing, like that last attack, has been linked | :03:22. | :03:27. | |
to the so-called Islamic State terror group. | :03:28. | :03:33. | |
TRANSLATION: On the bomber's mobile phone, there's a video of him | :03:34. | :03:38. | |
issuing an attack in Arabic, for which we have now received | :03:39. | :03:40. | |
According to this, he pledges in the name of Allah his allegiance | :03:41. | :03:46. | |
to the well-known IS leader, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, | :03:47. | :03:49. | |
and expressly announces an act of revenge against the Germans. | :03:50. | :03:56. | |
He was staying in temporary accommodation. | :03:57. | :04:01. | |
Detectives found more bomb-making material in his room. | :04:02. | :04:05. | |
He had recently been told he was being deported to Bulgaria, | :04:06. | :04:09. | |
People who lived alongside him at this old hotel said he had mental | :04:10. | :04:16. | |
health problems and that he tried to kill himself before. | :04:17. | :04:19. | |
He always said that, you know, "I'm not with them, | :04:20. | :04:26. | |
The German government has made a point of welcoming refugees | :04:27. | :04:37. | |
But in the conservative and mainly Catholic state of Bavaria, unease | :04:38. | :04:46. | |
is growing with their numbers, and that is partly | :04:47. | :04:48. | |
I think it is good that Germany does this, to take these guys | :04:49. | :04:55. | |
into our country and give them a safer life. | :04:56. | :04:58. | |
But if more things happen like this one, here, then, | :04:59. | :05:05. | |
sorry that I am saying this but it needs to stop now. | :05:06. | :05:11. | |
In Ansbach, there is sympathy and help for asylum seekers, | :05:12. | :05:14. | |
but even among those who have fled countries like Syria, | :05:15. | :05:17. | |
TRANSLATION: In the future, you will have to be careful | :05:18. | :05:24. | |
when you welcome everybody because some are messed up | :05:25. | :05:28. | |
As police searched through the debris of the bombing, | :05:29. | :05:35. | |
detectives will continue to look for the reason he killed himself | :05:36. | :05:38. | |
There must be a real sense of tension there in the town. | :05:39. | :05:56. | |
Naturally, people are fearful. That is because of the series of attacks | :05:57. | :06:00. | |
we have seen in the last seven days. But as you can probably hear, people | :06:01. | :06:04. | |
on the streets of Ansbach tonight, out at some of the bars that were | :06:05. | :06:07. | |
behind the police called in today. They are determined to show that | :06:08. | :06:11. | |
this will not change their way of life but of course, there will be an | :06:12. | :06:15. | |
impact. The German and Bavarian authorities have orgies spoken about | :06:16. | :06:18. | |
extra police on the streets and extra security at airports. But | :06:19. | :06:23. | |
their greatest concern will be about the suggestions, the claims of a | :06:24. | :06:26. | |
link between the man responsible for the suicide bombing here and IS. Of | :06:27. | :06:32. | |
course, that has not been proven. Certainly, there are other issues. | :06:33. | :06:36. | |
But that also raises another question for Germany. It is worth | :06:37. | :06:40. | |
pointing out that the attacker here and the teenager who was involved in | :06:41. | :06:43. | |
the shooting in Munich on Friday both had mental health problems. Yet | :06:44. | :06:48. | |
somehow, they got access to deadly weapons and were able to bring onto | :06:49. | :06:52. | |
the street. That is a real concern for Germany. Chris Buckler in | :06:53. | :06:54. | |
Ansbach, thank you. The "unacceptable face | :06:55. | :06:56. | |
of capitalism" - that's the scathing verdict of a parliamentary report | :06:57. | :06:58. | |
into the collapse of BHS. MPs said the role of the former boss | :06:59. | :07:01. | |
Sir Philip Green was a major factor in the demise of what was once | :07:02. | :07:04. | |
a high street giant and called on him to pay back some | :07:05. | :07:07. | |
or all of the company's ?571 million Sir Philip Green has hit back, | :07:08. | :07:11. | |
saying the report is not a fair Here's our business | :07:12. | :07:17. | |
editor Simon Jack. After countless hours of evidence | :07:18. | :07:28. | |
and thousands of documents reviewed, the story of BHS showed the | :07:29. | :07:35. | |
unacceptable face of capitalism, a parliamentary report described a | :07:36. | :07:39. | |
country run as a -- company run as a personal fiefdom by one owner after | :07:40. | :07:43. | |
collapsing under his incompetent and self-serving successor. The co-chair | :07:44. | :07:47. | |
of the report committee said one person alone is really responsible | :07:48. | :07:51. | |
for the BHS disaster. And that person is Sir Philip green. He comes | :07:52. | :07:55. | |
in for savage criticism for extracting hundreds of millions of | :07:56. | :07:59. | |
pounds to fund a lavish lifestyle, unrestrained by any independent | :08:00. | :08:05. | |
oversight. The Napoleon of this that directed all the operations was | :08:06. | :08:08. | |
Philip green. Although he pointed the finger at everybody else, all | :08:09. | :08:13. | |
the fingers really point to him. BHS was sold for just ?1 last year and | :08:14. | :08:17. | |
the details were settled on this handwritten note, a deal that helped | :08:18. | :08:23. | |
seal the fate of up to 10,000 workers. Like staff in South | :08:24. | :08:26. | |
Shields, putting a brave face on their last day. I feel like I have | :08:27. | :08:30. | |
been a loyal employee for 11 years because he owned the company when I | :08:31. | :08:34. | |
took it on and I've given my best, given everything to British home | :08:35. | :08:37. | |
stores and I feel like he just does not care about any of us. He just | :08:38. | :08:41. | |
sits with that smug look on his face. He does not care about us. | :08:42. | :08:51. | |
He's made me very angry. Emotions are high at the minute, a lot of | :08:52. | :08:53. | |
different emotions. We are hoping he gets his comeuppance. That he will | :08:54. | :08:56. | |
get what is coming to him. As stores begin closing down across the UK, | :08:57. | :08:59. | |
Sir Philip Rooney 's many miles away in the Mediterranean. When I asked | :09:00. | :09:03. | |
him when he was coming back, he joked, hopefully never but he knows | :09:04. | :09:06. | |
he's got unfinished business here, particularly with the pensions | :09:07. | :09:09. | |
regulator. How he chooses to deal with that may tell us about how much | :09:10. | :09:13. | |
he likes being called Sir Philip green. Do you might not looking at | :09:14. | :09:19. | |
me like that all the time? It's really disturbing. The government | :09:20. | :09:22. | |
has confirmed his knighthood is under review in the decision-making | :09:23. | :09:26. | |
job whether he delivers on a promise to tackle a ?500 million hole in the | :09:27. | :09:31. | |
pension fund. It is resolvable, can be sorted, we will sort it, we will | :09:32. | :09:36. | |
find a solution and I can give an assurance to the 20,000 pensioners | :09:37. | :09:42. | |
that I'm there to sort this. Others were also condemned. Dominic | :09:43. | :09:46. | |
Chappell, who brought the Company from Sir Philip green, was described | :09:47. | :09:50. | |
as manifestly unsuitable and out of his depth. Some of the biggest names | :09:51. | :09:53. | |
in financial services were also criticised for their role. But it | :09:54. | :09:56. | |
was Sir Philip green was the unwitting star of the show and a | :09:57. | :09:59. | |
night, he issued a statement calling the report the predetermined and | :10:00. | :10:03. | |
inaccurate output of a biased and unfair process. He said he was still | :10:04. | :10:12. | |
working on a pension deal and added, "I'm sad and sorry for all the BHS | :10:13. | :10:15. | |
people caught up in this horrid story but I don't believe that this | :10:16. | :10:18. | |
story is being in any way fairly portrayed". It is too early to know | :10:19. | :10:21. | |
whether that proves enough to save his reputation and possibly his | :10:22. | :10:22. | |
knighthood. Simon, thousands of BHS employs who | :10:23. | :10:29. | |
stand to risk losing some all of their pensions and meanwhile, Sir | :10:30. | :10:32. | |
Philip green is writing a threatening legal letter. What is | :10:33. | :10:37. | |
likely to happen next? In the last few arms, a war of words has erupted | :10:38. | :10:41. | |
with Sir Philip green threatening to sue one of the report's co-authors, | :10:42. | :10:45. | |
Frank Field, for comparing him in a broadcast of the late Robert | :10:46. | :10:49. | |
Maxwell, who, if you remember, removed money from the pension funds | :10:50. | :10:53. | |
of the Mirror group, something he's not accused of doing in this report | :10:54. | :10:57. | |
and also suggesting illegality in the manner in which Philip green | :10:58. | :11:01. | |
took money out of BHS. Again, that is something the report does not | :11:02. | :11:05. | |
acknowledge. Frank Fields says he has no intention of apologising. So | :11:06. | :11:09. | |
those two are on a legal collision course again, and I say that because | :11:10. | :11:13. | |
Frank Field called for Sir Philip green to be stripped of his | :11:14. | :11:16. | |
knighthood before the evidence had even been given which is one of the | :11:17. | :11:19. | |
reasons why Sir Philip green says this was the product of a biased | :11:20. | :11:23. | |
process. Those two are on a collision course again and that is | :11:24. | :11:25. | |
no comfort to 10,000 workers and 20,000 pensioners who are facing big | :11:26. | :11:30. | |
cuts to their pension income as things stand. He says that he is | :11:31. | :11:33. | |
talking to the pension regulator so we may found out -- find out exactly | :11:34. | :11:40. | |
how much Sir Philip Green thinks his knighthood is worth. | :11:41. | :11:43. | |
Theresa May has held talks in Belfast with senior political | :11:44. | :11:45. | |
leaders to discuss the consequences of the UK's decision | :11:46. | :11:47. | |
Northern Ireland is the only part of the UK to share a land border | :11:48. | :11:52. | |
with the EU and at the moment, people can move unrestricted | :11:53. | :11:55. | |
The Prime Minister said no one wanted a return to the barriers | :11:56. | :11:59. | |
From Stormont, here's our political correspondent Alex Forsyth. | :12:00. | :12:04. | |
For Northern Ireland, the consequences of Brexit could be | :12:05. | :12:06. | |
Most people here opted to Remain, but the overall vote to Leave means | :12:07. | :12:14. | |
this border with the Republic of Ireland will soon separate the UK | :12:15. | :12:19. | |
from the rest of the EU, raising questions for thousands who lived | :12:20. | :12:22. | |
Theresa May, visiting Stormont for the | :12:23. | :12:29. | |
first time as Prime Minister, had suggested before the referendum that | :12:30. | :12:32. | |
there could be border controls, but today offered reassurance. | :12:33. | :12:35. | |
Nobody wants to return to the borders of the past. | :12:36. | :12:39. | |
We want to find a way through this that is going to work | :12:40. | :12:42. | |
and deliver a practical solution for everybody | :12:43. | :12:44. | |
as part of the work we are | :12:45. | :12:51. | |
doing to ensure that we make a success of | :12:52. | :12:53. | |
the United Kingdom leaving the European Union and that we come | :12:54. | :12:56. | |
out of this with a deal in the best interests of the whole | :12:57. | :12:59. | |
Memories of security during the Troubles. | :13:00. | :13:04. | |
There were customs checks in the past, too. | :13:05. | :13:06. | |
None here now, but Brexit could mean tariffs | :13:07. | :13:08. | |
on trade, or restrictions on migration. | :13:09. | :13:09. | |
Politically, there is a stated desire to keep movement | :13:10. | :13:11. | |
But practically, there could be challenges in managing the flow of | :13:12. | :13:18. | |
goods and people when this becomes the border between the UK and the | :13:19. | :13:21. | |
People in border areas like Newry are already | :13:22. | :13:28. | |
For travel, we had such freedom before. | :13:29. | :13:38. | |
I would hate to think that that would end. | :13:39. | :13:40. | |
I think a lot of people are concerned about it, because you | :13:41. | :13:43. | |
just don't know what's going to happen. | :13:44. | :13:47. | |
Back at Stormont Castle, the | :13:48. | :13:49. | |
First Minister said there would be no return to hard borders. | :13:50. | :13:51. | |
We want to see free movement of people in | :13:52. | :13:56. | |
terms of the common travel area, but dealing with the other issue of | :13:57. | :13:59. | |
But Sinn Fein has warned that Brexit could be reason for Northern Ireland | :14:00. | :14:08. | |
to consider leaving the UK and uniting with the Republic of | :14:09. | :14:11. | |
The Deputy First Minister today said those who wanted to | :14:12. | :14:14. | |
remain in the EU shouldn't be ignored. | :14:15. | :14:18. | |
I made it clear to the British Prime Minister that the democratically | :14:19. | :14:22. | |
expressed wishes of the people of the north, who see | :14:23. | :14:26. | |
their future in Europe and who voted to remain in Europe, should be | :14:27. | :14:29. | |
What happens here, like elsewhere, will depend on the deal | :14:30. | :14:35. | |
the UK strikes on immigration and the single market. | :14:36. | :14:38. | |
There is determination to maintain stability, | :14:39. | :14:40. | |
but the impact of Brexit could stretch beyond the border. | :14:41. | :14:43. | |
Alex Forsyth, BBC News, Northern Ireland. | :14:44. | :14:46. | |
With 11 days to go until the Olympic Games in Rio, | :14:47. | :14:49. | |
individual sports associations are under pressure to decide | :14:50. | :14:52. | |
whether or not Russian athletes can take part, | :14:53. | :14:55. | |
following a decision yesterday not to impose a blanket ban over doping. | :14:56. | :15:00. | |
So far, the Russian tennis and archery teams have been | :15:01. | :15:04. | |
told they can compete, as have Russian swimmers, | :15:05. | :15:09. | |
although swimming's governing body has declared seven ineligible. | :15:10. | :15:12. | |
That's because they've been found to have doped in the past. | :15:13. | :15:15. | |
Russian athletes have now begun arriving in Rio unclear | :15:16. | :15:18. | |
about whether they'll be allowed to compete or not, | :15:19. | :15:20. | |
as our correspondent Wyre Davies reports. | :15:21. | :15:23. | |
Russian gymnasts arriving in Rio, bleary eyed after the long flight | :15:24. | :15:28. | |
from Moscow and still not sure if they'll be allowed | :15:29. | :15:30. | |
Gymnastics, a sport in which they'd expect to win a hatful of medals. | :15:31. | :15:44. | |
I can't imagine the Olympic games without Russia. | :15:45. | :15:46. | |
But there are mixed feelings about Russia's participation | :15:47. | :15:48. | |
Joice Silva's sport, freestyle wrestling, has been | :15:49. | :15:51. | |
Earlier this year, several Russian wrestlers were exposed as drugs | :15:52. | :15:58. | |
cheats, and Joice does not want them in Rio. | :15:59. | :16:00. | |
"Doping is completely unfair", says the Brazilian medal hopeful. | :16:01. | :16:07. | |
"When you are fighting and losing to an opponent who's on drugs, | :16:08. | :16:10. | |
it's soul destroying and feels like you are being robbed". | :16:11. | :16:13. | |
Russia's track and field squad was the first to be banned from Rio, | :16:14. | :16:16. | |
but the IOC sidestepped the thorny issue of whether to ban | :16:17. | :16:18. | |
the entire Russian delegation, despite accusations | :16:19. | :16:21. | |
The governing bodies of individual sports now deciding | :16:22. | :16:29. | |
It all means a critical role for Brazil's new anti-doping lab, | :16:30. | :16:39. | |
which will test 450 samples daily during the Games. | :16:40. | :16:41. | |
But it's only just recovered its licence to operate | :16:42. | :16:43. | |
after being accused of failing to meet international | :16:44. | :16:45. | |
The laboratory will be the most technically efficient | :16:46. | :16:53. | |
laboratory during the Games, with all the expertise the world has | :16:54. | :16:56. | |
So this will be a message for those athletes that would maybe dare | :16:57. | :17:02. | |
to cheat for the Games or before the Games that they will be caught. | :17:03. | :17:08. | |
The Olympic movement has rarely come under such scrutiny, | :17:09. | :17:11. | |
But with doping such a big issue, it's vital that Rio 2016 is seen | :17:12. | :17:19. | |
Pedro Solberg was denied a place at London 2012 | :17:20. | :17:25. | |
when he was wrongly declared a drugs cheat. | :17:26. | :17:27. | |
He says the eagerness to defeat doping runs | :17:28. | :17:30. | |
the risk of inadvertently stigmatising honest athletes. | :17:31. | :17:34. | |
People who didn't use drugs, who didn't do anything wrong, | :17:35. | :17:39. | |
they should not be out of the Olympics | :17:40. | :17:41. | |
because of other people's mistakes. | :17:42. | :17:45. | |
I know exactly how is this feeling, you know? | :17:46. | :17:50. | |
How many Russians will win medals in Rio? | :17:51. | :17:52. | |
with so many athletes so late in the day still unsure | :17:53. | :17:58. | |
A brief look at some of the day's other news stories. | :17:59. | :18:08. | |
Two teenagers have been killed and 17 others injured in a shooting | :18:09. | :18:11. | |
The shooting erupted in the car park of the club in Fort Myers, | :18:12. | :18:16. | |
as parents were picking up their children from a teen party. | :18:17. | :18:19. | |
Three people are being questioned by police, who say it wasn't | :18:20. | :18:23. | |
A man who's accused of drugging and murdering four men in east | :18:24. | :18:29. | |
Stephen Port, who's 41 and from Barking, | :18:30. | :18:33. | |
denies killing the men, who he met on gay websites, | :18:34. | :18:35. | |
as well as a series of attacks on eight other men. | :18:36. | :18:40. | |
Two people have been arrested in connection with a fatal shooting | :18:41. | :18:44. | |
A 34-year-old man was killed and a woman shot | :18:45. | :18:47. | |
in the leg at the event in the village of Headley. | :18:48. | :18:50. | |
The weapon used, thought to be a handgun, | :18:51. | :18:52. | |
The Democratic Party Convention, which will officially nominate | :18:53. | :18:58. | |
Hillary Clinton as its presidential candidate, has got under way. | :18:59. | :19:01. | |
On day one of the Convention in Philadelphia, key speakers | :19:02. | :19:04. | |
include Mrs Clinton's former rival, Bernie Sanders and the first | :19:05. | :19:06. | |
But a row over leaked emails threatens to overshadow | :19:07. | :19:14. | |
proceedings, with the chair of the Democratic National Committee | :19:15. | :19:16. | |
being forced to resign, as our North America | :19:17. | :19:19. | |
These aren't cheers for the DNC chair | :19:20. | :19:25. | |
Debbie Wasserman Schultz, they're boos. | :19:26. | :19:31. | |
furious at leaked e-mails which show that the party machine | :19:32. | :19:39. | |
in its handling of the primary campaign between Sanders | :19:40. | :19:44. | |
I can see there's a little bit of interest in my being here, | :19:45. | :19:50. | |
But such has been the intensity of interest that she's been | :19:51. | :19:55. | |
and will play no further role in the convention. | :19:56. | :20:02. | |
Hillary Clinton was today meeting veterans in North Carolina | :20:03. | :20:04. | |
But in an interview which aired last night, | :20:05. | :20:09. | |
she said this particular e-mail saga | :20:10. | :20:11. | |
I don't have any information about this, | :20:12. | :20:16. | |
I can't speak to what people who were not working for me, | :20:17. | :20:21. | |
who were saying whatever they were saying, | :20:22. | :20:23. | |
I can't speak to that, I can only speak to my campaign. | :20:24. | :20:29. | |
All of which has been a gift wrapped in a ribbon | :20:30. | :20:31. | |
and a bow for Donald Trump, tweeting delightedly: | :20:32. | :20:42. | |
And in Virginia, he seemed to relish going back to his old job as host | :20:43. | :20:45. | |
Bernie Sanders addressed his loyal supporters here in Philadelphia | :20:46. | :20:58. | |
Listen to the reaction of the crowd when he tells them | :20:59. | :21:03. | |
And we have got to elect Hillary Clinton | :21:04. | :21:07. | |
And it's the same story on the streets of Philadelphia. | :21:08. | :21:18. | |
The slogan of this convention is United Together. | :21:19. | :21:29. | |
That seems more aspiration than reality at the moment. | :21:30. | :21:33. | |
And in the past few moments, the Democratic National Committee have | :21:34. | :21:45. | |
issued a statement of apology to Bernie Sanders on behalf of everyone | :21:46. | :21:51. | |
at the DNC. "We Want to offer an apology to Bernie Sanders, his | :21:52. | :21:54. | |
supporters and the entire Democratic party for the inexcusable remarks | :21:55. | :22:01. | |
made over e-mail. " Here in the hall, every mention of Hillary | :22:02. | :22:10. | |
Clinton gets boos and chants of Bernie. There is a mutinous | :22:11. | :22:12. | |
atmosphere here. Thanks very much. It's a mystery that has perplexed | :22:13. | :22:17. | |
parents since time immemorial - why do teenagers behave | :22:18. | :22:19. | |
the way they do? Now scientists at Cambridge | :22:20. | :22:21. | |
University have gained some insight into the huge personality | :22:22. | :22:25. | |
and behavioural changes teenagers undergo, using brain scanning | :22:26. | :22:27. | |
techniques and genetics. And they are also gaining clues | :22:28. | :22:29. | |
about why some develop mental illnesses in late teens | :22:30. | :22:32. | |
and early adulthood. Here's our science | :22:33. | :22:33. | |
correspondent Pallab Ghosh. It changes so much as we grow, | :22:34. | :22:36. | |
shaping how we think and feel, most Ruby Burbage is 22 now, | :22:37. | :22:42. | |
but like many of us, felt powerful feelings | :22:43. | :22:50. | |
during her adolescence. When I was younger, | :22:51. | :22:53. | |
I was just horrible, just mean and shouting, | :22:54. | :22:56. | |
and as I developed into an adult and came out of the adolescent | :22:57. | :23:02. | |
stage, I had more and would take time | :23:03. | :23:04. | |
in thinking about about That was lost during | :23:05. | :23:07. | |
the time I was adolescent. To understand these changes, | :23:08. | :23:11. | |
scientists scanned the brains of 300 healthy volunteers between the ages | :23:12. | :23:18. | |
of 14 and 24. They were looking at the network | :23:19. | :23:21. | |
of nerve centres that direct messages from one part | :23:22. | :23:24. | |
of the brain to another. You can think of this | :23:25. | :23:27. | |
like the global airline network. That's made up of small, | :23:28. | :23:31. | |
infrequently used airports and huge hubs like Heathrow, | :23:32. | :23:34. | |
where there is very high traffic. The brain uses a similar | :23:35. | :23:38. | |
setup to coordinate They found that during adolescence, | :23:39. | :23:41. | |
the bigger hubs, used for complex thought, | :23:42. | :23:48. | |
get consolidated and strengthened, a bit like how Heathrow or JFK have | :23:49. | :23:51. | |
expanded over the years. These are the nodes | :23:52. | :23:56. | |
in the brain network. The real prize for the team | :23:57. | :23:58. | |
in Cambridge is to understand Some, like schizophrenia, | :23:59. | :24:01. | |
where patients have hallucinations, The researchers have shown | :24:02. | :24:09. | |
that the genes involved in rewiring the brain | :24:10. | :24:13. | |
during the teenage years are also involved in many | :24:14. | :24:16. | |
mental health disorders. As we understand more | :24:17. | :24:19. | |
about what puts people at risk from schizophrenia, | :24:20. | :24:23. | |
that gives us an opportunity to try and identify individuals | :24:24. | :24:26. | |
that are at risk of becoming schizophrenic in the foreseeable | :24:27. | :24:30. | |
future, over the next two or three years, and perhaps offering some | :24:31. | :24:34. | |
treatment then that could be helpful in preventing the onset | :24:35. | :24:38. | |
of clinical symptoms. Alice has lived with a condition | :24:39. | :24:43. | |
similar to schizophrenia She's a photographer | :24:44. | :24:46. | |
and teaches art at university. But she still has occasional | :24:47. | :24:55. | |
delusional episodes. To describe it, it's like being | :24:56. | :24:57. | |
awake while you're in a nightmare. I would ride a bus and it would seem | :24:58. | :25:00. | |
as if everyone on the bus was talking directly to me | :25:01. | :25:04. | |
and saying nasty things about me. And that was quite | :25:05. | :25:08. | |
frightening to experience. The research shows just how fragile | :25:09. | :25:12. | |
the developing brain is, at its most vulnerable | :25:13. | :25:14. | |
during the crucial teenage years. The new England football manager | :25:15. | :25:17. | |
Sam Allardyce has described the job as the "greatest challenge" | :25:18. | :25:26. | |
of his career. Speaking for the first time | :25:27. | :25:30. | |
since being appointed, he said he wanted to create | :25:31. | :25:33. | |
a feel-good factor in his squad, but wouldn't be drawn | :25:34. | :25:36. | |
on whether Wayne Rooney You've not seen this one before, | :25:37. | :25:37. | |
have you? Eh? Sadly for England fans, | :25:38. | :25:45. | |
what they have seen before is plenty of managers | :25:46. | :25:50. | |
come and go in recent years - the latest to try his hand, | :25:51. | :25:52. | |
Sam Allardyce, and confident he can succeed where | :25:53. | :25:55. | |
so many others have failed. To sit here, obviously, | :25:56. | :26:02. | |
is a huge thrill for me. I think that... | :26:03. | :26:05. | |
I think I fit the chair. I think I've got the | :26:06. | :26:08. | |
experience to pass on, and not only challenge the England | :26:09. | :26:14. | |
team, but challenge myself. And I think I'm tough enough | :26:15. | :26:18. | |
to take it. Allardyce made his name | :26:19. | :26:21. | |
turning round the fortunes of Bolton Wanderers, | :26:22. | :26:27. | |
getting the best out of players and narrowly missing out | :26:28. | :26:29. | |
on the England job in 2006. He then managed Newcastle, | :26:30. | :26:33. | |
Blackburn, West Ham and Sunderland - but having never won anything, | :26:34. | :26:36. | |
can he do so now with England? Will it require some | :26:37. | :26:41. | |
adjustment on your part? When it comes to winning no trophies | :26:42. | :26:43. | |
or winning no cups, well, unfortunately, me, as an English | :26:44. | :26:48. | |
manager, never really got the chance to go right to the very top | :26:49. | :26:54. | |
of the Premier League. You look at what I've achieved | :26:55. | :26:58. | |
over the years, like I said, you save a club, | :26:59. | :27:02. | |
you've not been relegated - they're big achievements, | :27:03. | :27:04. | |
they're difficult to do. Sam Allardyce finally has the job | :27:05. | :27:07. | |
that he's always coveted. But his task now | :27:08. | :27:12. | |
is to revive England and to confound those who say | :27:13. | :27:14. | |
that this is sport's impossible job. Having been knocked out of the Euros | :27:15. | :27:21. | |
by minnows Iceland, breathing new life | :27:22. | :27:23. | |
into England won't be easy, but one of those responsible | :27:24. | :27:26. | |
for choosing Allardyce is convinced that Big Sam | :27:27. | :27:28. | |
is the right man. Sam's track record at all | :27:29. | :27:32. | |
the clubs he's been at, I think it's difficult to argue | :27:33. | :27:34. | |
that he hasn't made each one of those teams better, | :27:35. | :27:36. | |
so we're very confident he'll come and do the same | :27:37. | :27:39. | |
for England seniors. Allardyce refused to say | :27:40. | :27:42. | |
whether Wayne Rooney would continue as his country's | :27:43. | :27:44. | |
captain, that's for the future, but with less than six weeks until | :27:45. | :27:47. | |
an opening World Cup qualifier, into a team the nation can be | :27:48. | :27:51. | |
proud of begins here and now. This is the good part | :27:52. | :27:56. | |
of the job, you know! England's cricketers have | :27:57. | :27:59. | |
won their second test against Pakistan at Old Trafford | :28:00. | :28:03. | |
by 330 runs. Pakistan, set a mammoth 565 to win, | :28:04. | :28:06. | |
were bowled out for 234 in their second innings with more | :28:07. | :28:10. | |
than a day left in the match. It levels the four-match | :28:11. | :28:15. | |
series at 1-1. Back to the Olympics now, | :28:16. | :28:20. | |
and there's less than a fortnight to go before the games get under | :28:21. | :28:23. | |
way in Rio. Team GB will be chasing a target | :28:24. | :28:25. | |
of at least 48 medals. One of those British medal hopefuls | :28:26. | :28:29. | |
is Dina Asher-Smith. She was a volunteer at the last | :28:30. | :28:32. | |
Olympics in London, but is now the fastest British | :28:33. | :28:35. | |
female sprinter ever. In the first of our series looking | :28:36. | :28:38. | |
at the British "ones to watch", our Sports Correspondent Natalie Pirks | :28:39. | :28:41. | |
has been to meet her. If slow and steady | :28:42. | :28:47. | |
wins the race, Dina Asher-Smith | :28:48. | :28:49. | |
didn't get the memo. it's a new British record | :28:50. | :28:53. | |
for Dina Asher-Smith! She is very, very happy, | :28:54. | :28:56. | |
and so she should be. Not content with becoming | :28:57. | :28:59. | |
the fastest British woman in history, she's just been crowned | :29:00. | :29:02. | |
European champion and earlier this month won | :29:03. | :29:04. | |
the national championships to cement her place in Team GB | :29:05. | :29:07. | |
for her first Olympics, the 20-year-old's trademark beaming | :29:08. | :29:11. | |
smile giving way to sheer relief. you tweeted, | :29:12. | :29:17. | |
"I'm going to be an Olympian." Has that sunk in yet? | :29:18. | :29:21. | |
Not at all! Not at all, I mean, it's been | :29:22. | :29:25. | |
such a lifelong dream, and something that I've | :29:26. | :29:27. | |
wanted for so long. I don't think it's | :29:28. | :29:29. | |
going to sink in till probably I remember watching the 2004 | :29:30. | :29:32. | |
Olympics, I remember watching Kelly Holmes going and doing | :29:33. | :29:37. | |
what we thought was impossible, and then to see the relay boys | :29:38. | :29:40. | |
win Olympic gold, as a sprinter as well, that was just | :29:41. | :29:43. | |
absolutely amazing to watch. So I've always, from that moment, | :29:44. | :29:46. | |
decided I wanted to be an Olympian. And you drew a picture | :29:47. | :29:49. | |
for your mum, didn't you? In primary school, we had to draw | :29:50. | :29:51. | |
what we wanted to be, and I remember this was just | :29:52. | :29:54. | |
after the Athens Olympics, so there was lots of Olympian | :29:55. | :29:56. | |
pictures, but it was just like, | :29:57. | :29:58. | |
"I want to be an Olympian," it was me on the podium, | :29:59. | :30:01. | |
with that little headdress. 12 years later, she's studying | :30:02. | :30:03. | |
history at university, but she's not exactly living | :30:04. | :30:05. | |
a normal student life. Most of the sacrifice has come | :30:06. | :30:08. | |
around my social life. My goals and aims, they're not | :30:09. | :30:12. | |
really helped by going out, partying, staying out really, | :30:13. | :30:15. | |
really late, eating bad food. That's just not how I'm going to get | :30:16. | :30:18. | |
to where I want to be. Most people at university your age | :30:19. | :30:21. | |
would not be as focused as you are. I mean, some people are lucky enough | :30:22. | :30:25. | |
when things drop into their lap, "You can't take the chance | :30:26. | :30:28. | |
and see if that is you, you might as well work hard | :30:29. | :30:32. | |
and then make sure that it is." As a kit carrier at London 2012, | :30:33. | :30:35. | |
Dina had front-row seats for Jessica Ennis-Hill's | :30:36. | :30:38. | |
heptathlon gold. It helped fuel the fire | :30:39. | :30:41. | |
of her Olympic ambition. Just watching from the alcove just | :30:42. | :30:44. | |
outside lane eight, it was so close, and being in the stadium | :30:45. | :30:48. | |
when everybody is that happy and that proud of an individual | :30:49. | :30:54. | |
athlete was absolutely incredible. What's your realistic | :30:55. | :30:58. | |
expectation of Rio? For me, focusing on running as fast | :30:59. | :30:59. | |
as I can in the moment that counts I don't know how far | :31:00. | :31:05. | |
that's going to get me. That might be, I don't know, | :31:06. | :31:09. | |
it might be a final place, But as long as I've gone | :31:10. | :31:12. | |
out there and genuinely done the best I can, | :31:13. | :31:15. | |
and fingers crossed, touch wood, run faster than I've ever run | :31:16. | :31:18. | |
before, it would be good, yeah. Dina Asher-Smith, on her hopes | :31:19. | :31:21. | |
for the Rio Olympics. Newsnight's about to begin over | :31:22. | :31:26. | |
on BBC Two in a few moments. Tonight, is the coup against Corbyn | :31:27. | :31:39. | |
