:01:02.:01:22.

Hello, good evening. Scotland Yard has released more details in the

:01:23.:01:28.

case of alleged slavery in south London. Police say the couple

:01:29.:01:30.

arrested on suspicion of detaining three women for more than 30 years

:01:31.:01:35.

are of Tanzanian and Indian origin and came to Britain in the 1960s.

:01:36.:01:40.

The women apparently lived with the man as part of a so-called

:01:41.:01:42.

collective after meeting through a shared political ideology. Daniela

:01:43.:01:49.

Relph has more. Peckford Place in Brixton in south

:01:50.:01:53.

London, the focus of police activity today, knocking on doors, talking to

:01:54.:01:57.

locals who lived close to where the women are said to have been held.

:01:58.:02:01.

But the police presence here has caused amusement. We don't expect

:02:02.:02:06.

something like that in this day and age, who knows what goes on behind

:02:07.:02:11.

closed doors? I was shocked that something like that could happen,

:02:12.:02:16.

unfortunately right here. Really shocking, we have not seen anybody

:02:17.:02:23.

there ever. There is more detail on the police investigation. The couple

:02:24.:02:27.

arrested in this case are of Indian and Tanzanian origin and came to the

:02:28.:02:32.

UK in the 1960s. Detectives believe a shared political ideology brought

:02:33.:02:38.

two of the victims and the male suspect together, and they lived for

:02:39.:02:43.

a time in a collective. The police say the investigation will move at

:02:44.:02:48.

the victims' pace as they remain emotionally fragile and highly

:02:49.:02:52.

vulnerable and need protecting. Right now, they are very concerned

:02:53.:02:56.

about media attention, focusing on them that they will be found. I am

:02:57.:03:00.

quite confident that the charity has housed them so they will not be

:03:01.:03:03.

found and they are very safe. They need time and space to get their

:03:04.:03:08.

thoughts together and understand what is going on. Police say they

:03:09.:03:12.

understand there is huge public interest in this case and a desire

:03:13.:03:16.

for information, but they also believe the women involved suffered

:03:17.:03:21.

years of emotional and physical abuse and their welfare is the

:03:22.:03:29.

priority. The Government's chief legal

:03:30.:03:31.

adviser, Dominic Grieve, has apologised tonight for any offence

:03:32.:03:35.

caused by remarks he made about levels of corruption in some ethnic

:03:36.:03:38.

minority communities. In an interview with the Daily Telegraph,

:03:39.:03:42.

the Attorney General said that politicians needed to wake up to the

:03:43.:03:47.

issue. His comments angered many in the Pakistani community, as

:03:48.:03:49.

political correspondent Vicki Young reports.

:03:50.:03:54.

The impact of immigration on communities across Britain is a

:03:55.:03:57.

sensitive subject for politicians, but more and more they are joining

:03:58.:04:02.

the debate. The government's most senior legal advisor is a man who

:04:03.:04:06.

chooses his words carefully, but speaking about conduct in public

:04:07.:04:09.

life he said that some migrants came from countries where corruption is

:04:10.:04:12.

endemic and they may have been brought up to believe you can only

:04:13.:04:16.

get certain things through a favour culture and that is not acceptable.

:04:17.:04:21.

Asked if he was referring to the Pakistani community, he replied,

:04:22.:04:25.

yes, it is mainly the Pakistani community, although he added, I

:04:26.:04:28.

would be wary of saying it is just a Pakistani problem. His comments were

:04:29.:04:33.

criticised by Labour. Scapegoating one particular community, blaming

:04:34.:04:38.

one community on an issue which needs to be addressed, needs to be

:04:39.:04:42.

addressed across all communities isn't fair and isn't a right to do

:04:43.:04:48.

that. Dominic Grieve is particularly concerned about electoral fraud, and

:04:49.:04:52.

senior Tories have been quick to try to clarify his comments. The most

:04:53.:04:59.

important thing is that we do not criticise any particular community.

:05:00.:05:03.

We want to root out any corruption, but the Pakistani community has

:05:04.:05:06.

contributed a huge amount to this country, and we will make sure that

:05:07.:05:11.

we treat every community absolutely fairly. And today people in Bradford

:05:12.:05:17.

agreed. In each community there is people who are of that nature, they

:05:18.:05:22.

may be corrupt, but to generalise in the Pakistani community is very

:05:23.:05:26.

wrong. There is corruption in banks, corruption everywhere.

:05:27.:05:30.

Tonight Dominic Grieve has apologised, saying that he does not

:05:31.:05:34.

believe there is a particular problem in the Pakistani community

:05:35.:05:37.

and he is sorry if he has caused any offence. But the episode

:05:38.:05:40.

demonstrates just how carefully politicians need to tread when they

:05:41.:05:47.

enter the debate on immigration. Talks are continuing in Geneva to

:05:48.:05:52.

try to reach agreement over Iran's nuclear programme. The BBC has been

:05:53.:05:56.

told that the next few hours will be decisive. Earlier, the Iranian

:05:57.:06:01.

foreign minister said any agreement must respect what he called their

:06:02.:06:05.

inalienable right to enrich your a new. Middle East editor Jeremy

:06:06.:06:08.

Bowen's report contains flash photography.

:06:09.:06:12.

Not long after dawn, the American Secretary of State arrived in

:06:13.:06:15.

Switzerland for one more push out an agreement. Two weeks ago, John

:06:16.:06:21.

Terry's tactic of clearing his diary and flying into not work and they

:06:22.:06:25.

left without a deal. -- John Kerry. It is doubtful that he and William

:06:26.:06:29.

Hague and their counterparts would have come here again if they did not

:06:30.:06:35.

think they were closer to a deal. The Iranian Foreign Minister has

:06:36.:06:38.

been full of smiles, in public at least, during the last few days of

:06:39.:06:42.

negotiations. Those who believe Iran still cannot be trusted, especially

:06:43.:06:46.

Israel and Saudi Arabia, say he is looking cheerful because he is

:06:47.:06:49.

preserving their option of developing a nuclear weapon. But

:06:50.:06:53.

Iran has always said it does not want the bomb and the EU and the

:06:54.:06:56.

others he insists an agreement would make the world a safer place. Back

:06:57.:07:02.

in January, plenty of people in the Middle East were predicting that

:07:03.:07:05.

this could be the year when negotiations failed and the

:07:06.:07:09.

Israelis, with or without the Americans, attacked Iran's nuclear

:07:10.:07:13.

facilities. Diplomatic progress that has been made in the last couple of

:07:14.:07:17.

months as not, though, made the Israelis or the Saudis, their rivals

:07:18.:07:23.

on the other side of the Gulf, feel any more safe. When William Hague

:07:24.:07:26.

arrived at the hotel in Geneva where the talks are being held, he tried

:07:27.:07:32.

to reassure the doubters. It is understandable that people have

:07:33.:07:34.

concerns, remember the whole history of much of the recent history of

:07:35.:07:41.

this nuclear programme is of concealment, and is of defiance of

:07:42.:07:44.

international agreements and resolutions. So, of course, that is

:07:45.:07:50.

why it is important that any agreement is thorough and detailed

:07:51.:07:55.

and comprehensive and covers all aspects of the nuclear programme.

:07:56.:08:01.

The American Secretary of State took a break to go out to buy his wife

:08:02.:08:04.

and family Swiss chocolate for Thanksgiving. Then back to the

:08:05.:08:07.

hotel, where it was too early to give thanks, in closed rooms had

:08:08.:08:13.

diplomatic work continued. An agreement here on Iran's nuclear

:08:14.:08:16.

programme could eventually start a new cycle of change in the Middle

:08:17.:08:20.

East. That is why it would be a big prize, and why some fear it.

:08:21.:08:30.

The Latvian President has described the collapse of a supermarket in the

:08:31.:08:33.

capital, Riga, on Thursday as murder.

:08:34.:08:39.

Rescue teams searching through the rubble for bodies have suspended

:08:40.:08:44.

their operation this evening when the rest of the building's roof fell

:08:45.:08:51.

in. At least 54 people have died. To the sport now, and Lizzie

:08:52.:08:55.

Greenwood-Hughes joins us from the BBC Sport Centre.

:08:56.:08:57.

Thank you very much, a heartbreaking ending to the Rugby League World Cup

:08:58.:09:02.

for England as they were beaten in the semifinals by New Zealand with

:09:03.:09:06.

the last kick of the match. 20-18, the final score, and New Zealand

:09:07.:09:09.

will play Australia in next week's final. Olly Foster reports from

:09:10.:09:13.

Wembley. In union or league, New Zealand

:09:14.:09:19.

owned the rugby world. Intimidated? England tried not to show it, Sean

:09:20.:09:25.

O'Loughlin went over to stun the world champions, but they let an

:09:26.:09:29.

8-point lead slip. This wizardry kept the ball alive, and the Kiwis

:09:30.:09:37.

went over for their first drive. Another after the break, this a test

:09:38.:09:42.

of England's character. They have plenty. Kallum Watkins found a gap.

:09:43.:09:49.

Man of the match Sam Burgess barrelled over, and that looked to

:09:50.:09:53.

have won it, but when his brother George was penalised in the final

:09:54.:09:58.

minute for a high tackle, the Kiwis made them pay. Shaun Johnson

:09:59.:10:01.

levelled the scores, England breached, then broken by the same

:10:02.:10:10.

man's boot. This is desperate for England, who cannot quite believe

:10:11.:10:13.

what has just happened to them, losing this World Cup semifinal to

:10:14.:10:19.

the last kick of the match. They have improved with every match at

:10:20.:10:23.

this tournament, but there will be no final for them. That final next

:10:24.:10:27.

weekend at Old Trafford will be a repeat of the last two, Kiwis

:10:28.:10:32.

against Kangaroos. The second semifinal was not as the Matic as

:10:33.:10:36.

the first, Australia ran in 11 tries against PG. -- dramatic.

:10:37.:10:46.

Plenty of drama in today's Barclays Premier League, Match Of The Day

:10:47.:10:51.

follows the news, so this is your chance to leave the room.

:10:52.:10:57.

At Goodison Park, the first Merseyside derby of the season was a

:10:58.:11:01.

six goal thriller, Daniel Sturridge scoring a late equaliser for

:11:02.:11:06.

Liverpool to draw 3-3 with Everton. Arsenal four points clear at the top

:11:07.:11:10.

of the table, Olivier scoring both goals in their two - zero win over

:11:11.:11:13.

in four Southampton. -- 2-0. Celtic claimed a late victory over

:11:14.:11:42.

Aberdeen to stay top of the Scottish premiership.

:11:43.:11:48.

And the Welsh women have beaten Montenegro 3-0 in their World Cup

:11:49.:11:55.

qualifier, Northern Ireland lost by the same scoreline to Poland.

:11:56.:11:59.

England's cricketers will walk out at the Gabba in less than two powers

:12:00.:12:08.

two hours time facing an almost impossible task. They need 561 to

:12:09.:12:14.

win. From Brisbane, here is Joe Wilson.

:12:15.:12:18.

England are scouring the sky. Is. Look up for weather when you are

:12:19.:12:23.

rock bottom in the match. Saturday's rain only skimmed the

:12:24.:12:28.

ground, nothing to stop the brash advance Australia fair. Against

:12:29.:12:30.

bowlers in general and as one in particular, the tactic was simple

:12:31.:12:36.

and brutal. A partnership between one and Clarke crushed England. Not

:12:37.:12:40.

long ago, Warner tried to engage Joe Root, but he guided his bowling

:12:41.:12:44.

towards the boundary too reaches first Ashes century. Broad

:12:45.:12:47.

eventually got one, but only after he whacked him back into the screen.

:12:48.:12:53.

Lee building, morale sapping. There has been much discussion of Michael

:12:54.:12:59.

Clarke's perceived weaknesses, making 100 off 115 balls suggests he

:13:00.:13:04.

is doing OK. When the lead reached 560, the captain declared. England

:13:05.:13:10.

have made 516 in their second innings at this ground, but that was

:13:11.:13:15.

a one-off, wasn't it? England will resume on the fourth day two wickets

:13:16.:13:20.

down, Carbery out for zero, and Australia set a trap for Jonathan

:13:21.:13:24.

Trott which he fell into headfirst. England are on the back foot, the

:13:25.:13:30.

way they got Trott out was pretty weak. Defeat looms, England know

:13:31.:13:35.

they must at least show some sign of a fight.

:13:36.:13:41.

Scotland's rugby union side put up a brave and much improved performance

:13:42.:13:45.

against Australia in their final autumn international at Murrayfield,

:13:46.:13:48.

but their lack of tries meant they were beaten 21-15. The Wallabies

:13:49.:13:54.

have won all three of their matches. And world champion Sebastian Vettel

:13:55.:13:57.

is on pole position for the season-ending Brazilian Grand Prix.

:13:58.:14:00.

That is the sport, back to you, Kate.

:14:01.:14:07.

Finally tonight, it was one of the most hotly anticipated television

:14:08.:14:10.

programmes of the year, shown simultaneously in more than 90

:14:11.:14:16.

countries on six continents. But did the 50th anniversary special of

:14:17.:14:20.

Doctor Who live up to expectations, and was not one but three

:14:21.:14:25.

incarnations of the Doctor enough to satisfy the most ardent Whovians?

:14:26.:14:28.

For those who have not watched, this report does give away some of the

:14:29.:14:34.

episode's secrets. Just a few of the many millions

:14:35.:14:38.

watching tonight's broadcast, this group of fans gathered in a local

:14:39.:14:42.

pub to watch the latest instalment of a story that began half a century

:14:43.:14:49.

ago. Good afternoon! I am looking for the Doctor. Well, you have

:14:50.:14:54.

certainly come to the right place. The show, which many had been

:14:55.:14:58.

anticipating for months, featured multiple Time Lord! , Matt Smith,

:14:59.:15:04.

predecessor David Tennant and John Hurt in a mystery spanning several

:15:05.:15:10.

centuries. For thousands of fans old and young, tonight was the

:15:11.:15:13.

culmination of a day that for them began with a special event in

:15:14.:15:19.

London. Attended by some of the show's familiar faces. The Doctor

:15:20.:15:24.

Who team were careful not to give away any of the unexpected surprises

:15:25.:15:28.

in the episode, including an appearance by the fourth Doctor, Tom

:15:29.:15:35.

Baker. If I were you... Oh, perhaps I was you! Or perhaps you are me.

:15:36.:15:44.

And a very brief glimpse of the next Doctor, Peter Capaldi. Everybody

:15:45.:15:49.

kept cheering at the right moments, because there were all these things

:15:50.:15:53.

that resonated and went right back. An amazing throw forward to the

:15:54.:15:56.

future and what we can expect, a whole new story line opening up, all

:15:57.:16:03.

our Christmases come at once. The episode was also screened in cinemas

:16:04.:16:08.

not just here but also in more than 90 countries simultaneously around

:16:09.:16:13.

the world. A global celebration of a very British institution.

:16:14.:16:21.

If you are a Whovian, I hope you did enjoy it! The rest of the day's

:16:22.:16:27.

stories are on the BBC News Channel, that is all from me and the

:16:28.:16:31.

team here. Good night to you, bye-bye.

:16:32.:16:41.

Hello, if you thought today's weather fell into the half decent

:16:42.:16:46.

category, there is little to fend in this

:16:47.:16:48.
