for the news where you are. Goodbye.

:00:07.:00:15.

Good evening and welcome to BBC London News.

:00:16.:00:19.

I'm Louisa Preston. A woman believed to be

:00:20.:00:22.

in her 40s has died following a fire at a house in Harrow.

:00:23.:00:25.

14 firefighters were called to the blaze on St Margaret?s Avenue

:00:26.:00:29.

in the early hours of this morning. The woman's death is being treated

:00:30.:00:31.

as unexplained by police, as Gareth Furby reports.

:00:32.:00:39.

South Harrow, where a woman came home to find a house where it is

:00:40.:00:49.

believed she lived was on fire. Inside was a housemate. Me

:00:50.:00:59.

immediately, she ran for help. She ran across to my neighbour who

:01:00.:01:03.

called the fire brigade, and I dragged this girl out. She was just

:01:04.:01:11.

lifeless. Emergency crews tried to resuscitate the woman, but they were

:01:12.:01:15.

not successful. Was believed she was in her 40s, and some say that the

:01:16.:01:25.

house was rented by several people. Row they started pumping the heart,

:01:26.:01:33.

the ambulance. Then after 1.30 at night, they put the red blanket on.

:01:34.:01:40.

So they tried for a very long time? Three quarters of an hour, they

:01:41.:01:46.

tried. Firefighters with breathing apparatus rescued a woman from the

:01:47.:01:53.

first floor who sadly later died. Under way now is an investigation

:01:54.:01:56.

into the cause of this fire, and then there will be in inquest into

:01:57.:02:01.

the cause of death. Enquiries are also continuing to confirm the

:02:02.:02:04.

woman's identity and trace her next of kin.

:02:05.:02:07.

as Gareth Furby reports. A man from south London has died

:02:08.:02:10.

after taking part in the Great North Swim.

:02:11.:02:12.

The 52-year-old from Wallington who hasn't been identified,

:02:13.:02:15.

was taken by air ambulance to hospital yesterday following

:02:16.:02:16.

the incident on Windermere. Police say the man suffered

:02:17.:02:21.

a medical emergency. 100 extra buses will be put on

:02:22.:02:24.

in the capital to help ferry fans who stay out to watch England's

:02:25.:02:27.

first game tonight in the World Cup against Italy.

:02:28.:02:29.

Transport for London say that in total there will be more than

:02:30.:02:32.

a thousand buses running, which will be flexible enough to cope with

:02:33.:02:36.

any changes to the time the match ends and demand from passengers

:02:37.:02:38.

The tube won't be staying open later.

:02:39.:02:43.

Well, a Premier League footballer is spearheading a campaign to

:02:44.:02:46.

tackle truancy in London schools. Queen's Park Rangers midfielder

:02:47.:02:49.

Jermaine Jenas set up the foundation which gives pupils the chance to

:02:50.:02:53.

train with some of the country's top football coaches, but the students

:02:54.:02:55.

must give something back in return. Emilia Papadopoulos went

:02:56.:02:56.

to find out how it works. It is not just about having a

:02:57.:03:08.

kickabout with a football. And this isn't your average school football

:03:09.:03:14.

team. They have a Premier league start overseeing their training The

:03:15.:03:21.

project was set up to tackle the growing problem in London schools.

:03:22.:03:25.

These students in Hammersmith are the first in the capital to get

:03:26.:03:30.

involved. A common thing we kept coming across was truancy, and kids

:03:31.:03:33.

not applying themselves and not making it. With the odd incentive

they are there, they enjoyed school school and they start to progress

:03:45.:03:47.

from point. Most of these year nine pupils have any trouble at school,

:03:48.:03:51.

and somewhat facing exclusion, but it is hoped courses like this can

:03:52.:03:55.

help turn things around, and here is the deal. They get to train with

:03:56.:04:01.

some of the top coaches at QPR, and in return, they can't miss a day of

:04:02.:04:05.

school. If they start to give teachers

:04:06.:04:09.

problems, they won't be allowed the luxury of the sport and the

:04:10.:04:14.

incentives that go with it. It has already worked for 40 new odd

Taylor. I got in a lot of trouble. He was first expelled at primary

:04:22.:04:26.

school, but now things are changing. I have turned it around. I hardly

ever get into trouble now. The foundation plans to implement

:04:34.:04:38.

similar courses in schools across London, and Jermaine focused on

keeping true ands in the classroom. to find out how it works.

:04:44.:04:47.

Right, let?s take a quick look at the

:04:48.:04:49.

and spells of warm sunshine. It'll feel similar to today with

:04:50.:04:51.

a top temperature of 20 degrees Celsius.

:04:52.:04:55.

That's it. We'll be back tomorrow.

:04:56.:04:59.

But from all of us on the team, goodbye.

:05:00.:05:12.

Good evening. We don't have any of the sultry heat they have in Brazil,

:05:13.:05:23.

but it is a warm evening for many. A few showers in eastern parts of

:05:24.:05:32.

Wales. Most having a dry night, partly clear skies. The breeze

:05:33.:05:36.

slightly fresher across parts of eastern England. Further west, we

start again on another muddy
