and on BBC One, we now join the BBC's news teams where you are. | :00:00. | :00:07. | |
Tonight on BBC London News: Trapped for four minutes in smoke | :00:08. | :00:11. | |
filled carriages ` the report into the handling of an electrical | :00:12. | :00:14. | |
fault on the underground. The report found senior staff | :00:15. | :00:18. | |
weren't immediately aware of the seriousness of the incident. | :00:19. | :00:20. | |
Also tonight: It worked in New York, | :00:21. | :00:23. | |
but will it be work here? The Met unveils its latest | :00:24. | :00:26. | |
efforts to tackle West End crime. Plus streets turned to rivers, flash | :00:27. | :00:34. | |
floods and torrential downpours. A swathe of London is battered | :00:35. | :00:47. | |
by freak weather conditions. After 20 years busking | :00:48. | :00:49. | |
on the streets, the Croydon singer who's about to hit the big time. | :00:50. | :01:09. | |
Good evening and welcome to the programme. | :01:10. | :01:11. | |
Locked on a tube train as smoke filled the carriages ` | :01:12. | :01:17. | |
the terrifying moment passengers tried to escape from | :01:18. | :01:19. | |
A report into the electrical fault at Holland | :01:20. | :01:23. | |
It revealed that, although those onboard weren't at risk, it took | :01:24. | :01:27. | |
In their report, accident investigators found | :01:28. | :01:30. | |
that the driver had a lack of training to deal with such incidents | :01:31. | :01:33. | |
and that senior station staff weren't immediately aware of the | :01:34. | :01:35. | |
Our Transport Correspondent Tom Edwards reports. | :01:36. | :01:42. | |
Mass panic as passengers find themselves trapped in carriages | :01:43. | :01:49. | |
filling with smoke. There are no announcements, the alarms are pulled | :01:50. | :01:55. | |
and travellers desperately tried to get themselves out of the train | :01:56. | :01:59. | |
themselves. Many said they felt forgotten. I've literally kept my | :02:00. | :02:06. | |
knee wedged into the door so that I could get some air because I suffer | :02:07. | :02:10. | |
from panic attacks. The report highlights concerns around the | :02:11. | :02:14. | |
incident last August, it found there were no members of station staff | :02:15. | :02:19. | |
visible on the platform for about two and a half minutes. | :02:20. | :02:34. | |
An investigation only launched after managers saw this footage in the | :02:35. | :02:41. | |
media. Unions say this highlight other issues. You will be aware that | :02:42. | :02:49. | |
London Underground are planning to reduce staff by nearly 1000. We | :02:50. | :02:53. | |
believe the presence of properly trained staff on the stations and on | :02:54. | :02:59. | |
the trains and in the control room is greatly assists passengers in the | :03:00. | :03:04. | |
event of emergency situations. Tube bosses say priority is safety. The | :03:05. | :03:11. | |
smoke came from a faulty motor. Could it happen again? It is | :03:12. | :03:17. | |
something that occurs on the line, we occasionally have dragging brakes | :03:18. | :03:24. | |
on the line, but the action we have continued to implement, I think the | :03:25. | :03:28. | |
panic that ensued as a result of the incident would be highly unlikely to | :03:29. | :03:33. | |
occur again. This report makes it clear that although they were in no | :03:34. | :03:38. | |
danger, this was a distressing incident for many passengers who | :03:39. | :03:42. | |
were stuck on the train. London Underground says it is reviewing the | :03:43. | :03:48. | |
training of drivers and staffing levels at its stations during the | :03:49. | :03:52. | |
carnival. London Underground says safety is always a priority but with | :03:53. | :03:57. | |
big changes planned, these chaotic scenes will concern many Londoners. | :03:58. | :04:02. | |
Why this London rabbi has taken part in an Islamic tradition | :04:03. | :04:06. | |
It's been dubbed saturation policing and is the latest tactic to be | :04:07. | :04:16. | |
Now a dedicated force of an extra hundred officers will be | :04:17. | :04:21. | |
They will patrol the areas with high crime rates | :04:22. | :04:26. | |
including Leicester square, Coventry Street and Piccadilly Circus. | :04:27. | :04:30. | |
Our Home Affairs Correspondent Guy Smith is in the West End | :04:31. | :04:32. | |
I am in one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world | :04:33. | :04:46. | |
and with that unfortunately comes pickpocketing, assaults and | :04:47. | :04:51. | |
robberies. Last year there were more than 4300 reported crimes so it | :04:52. | :04:55. | |
seems to make sense to have a much bigger police presence. Many more, | :04:56. | :05:04. | |
100 extra officers will be on patrol from today. Tourists and Londoners | :05:05. | :05:08. | |
seeing more than a doubling of the number already in the West End, but | :05:09. | :05:13. | |
these will be dedicated to just three locations ` Piccadilly Circus, | :05:14. | :05:17. | |
Leicester Square and Coventry Street. Is it really needed? | :05:18. | :05:27. | |
Absolutely, given that the West End attracts so many people, it is | :05:28. | :05:31. | |
needed so that people can feel safe and we can deal with any | :05:32. | :05:36. | |
criminality. It is an idea apparently from New York, a police | :05:37. | :05:41. | |
model the NYPD has used in Times Square that has led to dramatic | :05:42. | :05:46. | |
falls in crime. We have seen it working in New York, the tone of the | :05:47. | :05:52. | |
city changes with this policing so we are delighted. These policemen | :05:53. | :05:58. | |
are part of the new team, their presence is expected to be | :05:59. | :06:02. | |
reassuring. It is hoped this kind of policing will have the same impact | :06:03. | :06:07. | |
as it has had in New York, saturating the area with very | :06:08. | :06:11. | |
visible police officers. They will although `` also be a mobile police | :06:12. | :06:18. | |
station, and some will be on show on a podium to see and be seen. This is | :06:19. | :06:24. | |
not taking officers away from other areas, it is adding officers in the | :06:25. | :06:30. | |
real tourist activity zone so when you have that bumpy area of the | :06:31. | :06:35. | |
mattress you can push it down with more officers. A real opportunity or | :06:36. | :06:40. | |
just a photo opportunity, the new scheme will be evaluated and if | :06:41. | :06:44. | |
successful we could be seeing more of this in crime hotspots around the | :06:45. | :06:48. | |
capital. It is a six`month trial, there will | :06:49. | :06:53. | |
be a minimum of 18 officers during the day and a minimum of 23 officers | :06:54. | :07:00. | |
during the night. It is part of a massive recruitment campaign The Met | :07:01. | :07:05. | |
is undergoing at the moment. You heard the mayor saying that it is | :07:06. | :07:10. | |
hoped this new tactic will help smooth out that lumpy mattress, in | :07:11. | :07:14. | |
other words help reduce crime in the West End. | :07:15. | :07:19. | |
An NHS employee is facing jail after siphoning ?642,000 from | :07:20. | :07:21. | |
the Royal Marsden Hospital, which was meant to buy cancer drugs. | :07:22. | :07:24. | |
Southwark Crown Court heard that Stacey Tipler, who's 32 and | :07:25. | :07:27. | |
from Carshalton in Surrey, was part of a gang which spent the money | :07:28. | :07:30. | |
The High Court will rule in the morning whether a legal | :07:31. | :07:45. | |
challenge to the election results in Tower Hamlets can go ahead. | :07:46. | :07:48. | |
Four local political activists claimed | :07:49. | :07:49. | |
in court today that elections that saw Lutfur Rahman hold on to | :07:50. | :07:52. | |
his job as mayor of the borough were subject to widespread fraud. | :07:53. | :07:55. | |
But the mayor's legal team described the claims as woeful and devoid | :07:56. | :07:58. | |
London is well known for its high cost of living, | :07:59. | :08:05. | |
so it's no surprise that those in rented accommodation pay the most. | :08:06. | :08:08. | |
Now it's been revealed that for the first time ever, rents in London are | :08:09. | :08:12. | |
And as Tarah Welsh reports, that means that an increasing number | :08:13. | :08:16. | |
of Londoners are going to ever greater lengths to keep costs down. | :08:17. | :08:19. | |
How much do you get for your money living here? Not much. We pay ?1650 | :08:20. | :08:31. | |
between us. The rent on this flat share is almost ?20,000 per year. | :08:32. | :08:37. | |
This is one of the bedrooms, which would have been our living room so | :08:38. | :08:42. | |
we don't have any communal space. Our bathroom, second bedroom, and | :08:43. | :08:48. | |
this is my bedroom. Liam has recently helped write a report about | :08:49. | :08:52. | |
the cost of renting in Tower Hamlets. People are paying up to two | :08:53. | :08:58. | |
thirds of their income just on rent so they couldn't go on holiday, they | :08:59. | :09:02. | |
were cutting down on food, electricity and gas. A survey by a | :09:03. | :09:10. | |
company that checks references from tenants shows the national average | :09:11. | :09:13. | |
salary is ?37,800, the average rent is almost ?17,000, 45% of their | :09:14. | :09:25. | |
salary. We are now seeing something like an 11% rise year on year which | :09:26. | :09:30. | |
is well ahead in what we are seeing in the rest of the UK. An affordable | :09:31. | :09:34. | |
rent is one that doesn't take up more than 35% of your take`home pay | :09:35. | :09:40. | |
so the Green party and the London Assembly came up with this map. You | :09:41. | :09:47. | |
select where you want to live, say a one`bedroom, and how much you earn, | :09:48. | :09:54. | |
and it will show you where is affordable. You can see the | :09:55. | :09:57. | |
outskirts are affordable. If you said you were on the minimum wage, | :09:58. | :10:02. | |
all of London becomes unaffordable, even if you said you want to flat | :10:03. | :10:08. | |
share. Most landlords we work with our ordinary people putting their | :10:09. | :10:13. | |
own money into providing homes. The market is the market and there were | :10:14. | :10:17. | |
fewer landlords, there would be fewer homes available. It seems many | :10:18. | :10:22. | |
are still willing to sacrifice space to stay in the capital. | :10:23. | :10:26. | |
Roads became rivers in parts of north`west London this morning | :10:27. | :10:29. | |
following torrential downpours and flash flooding. | :10:30. | :10:30. | |
The London Fire Brigade had to rescue several motorists who'd been | :10:31. | :10:33. | |
And this evening a yellow weather warning remains | :10:34. | :10:36. | |
Waterlogged, the clear up in Ruislip after the rain. This homeowner says | :10:37. | :10:59. | |
the freak storm flooded her home in just one hour. Shockingly, because | :11:00. | :11:05. | |
last night we had a lovely barbecue and I watered the garden, I never | :11:06. | :11:13. | |
expected that! The Met Office says two weeks' worth of rain fell in | :11:14. | :11:19. | |
just one hour in parts of the south`east. I could see the wet | :11:20. | :11:23. | |
weather rising first in the garden and on the street so I started to | :11:24. | :11:28. | |
panic a little bit. It didn't stop, I bath towels around the door to | :11:29. | :11:33. | |
stop the water coming in. It was just coming in, I couldn't stop it. | :11:34. | :11:39. | |
The London Fire Brigade pumped out water and provided sandbanks, and | :11:40. | :11:45. | |
also rescued two women stranded in a car. The freak weather meant travel | :11:46. | :11:51. | |
chaos on the nearby A40 and at Ruislip Manor Tube station with | :11:52. | :11:55. | |
suspension of parts of the Metropolitan line, and a clean`up | :11:56. | :12:00. | |
operation for local homeowners. The water rose up, and once it gets past | :12:01. | :12:06. | |
the damp proof level it just comes inside. We only had a couple of | :12:07. | :12:11. | |
inches inside but it is enough to mess us up completely. You can see | :12:12. | :12:18. | |
the damage in this garage, but what came down in a matter of minutes | :12:19. | :12:22. | |
took many hours to get rid off with the help of the Fire Brigade and | :12:23. | :12:25. | |
homeowners are still dealing with the aftermath. | :12:26. | :12:29. | |
And Wendy joins me now to talk us through just how | :12:30. | :12:31. | |
In places, more than two weeks' worth of rain fell in an hour. | :12:32. | :12:37. | |
Yes, and if you travelled ten minutes up the road there would have | :12:38. | :12:46. | |
been nothing. It is unusual, we are used to these thunderstorms now, it | :12:47. | :12:50. | |
has been a particularly active month. Normally we get the heat and | :12:51. | :12:55. | |
humidity building up through the day, it goes pop in the evening, but | :12:56. | :13:00. | |
these developed in the early hours of the morning. We have low`level | :13:01. | :13:04. | |
temperatures easing off, but in the atmosphere there is latent heat and | :13:05. | :13:09. | |
humidity, then you just need low pressure and that is what we had | :13:10. | :13:13. | |
over the continent yesterday night and through the first part of today | :13:14. | :13:17. | |
and that triggered off those showers. The yellow bits you can see | :13:18. | :13:22. | |
are the most torrential rain. Within just over an hour, the Ruislip area | :13:23. | :13:33. | |
had had 44 millimetres of rain. In Sussex they have similar values and | :13:34. | :13:37. | |
of course it was rush hour so that made it even more difficult for | :13:38. | :13:40. | |
people. This evening we still have weather warnings in place. Police | :13:41. | :13:54. | |
are appealing for witnesses after a bus driver was stabbed in the eye. | :13:55. | :14:04. | |
The bus driver was attacked with a Stanley knife through an open | :14:05. | :14:08. | |
window. A new genetic test is being used | :14:09. | :14:13. | |
which not only diagnose is serious medical conditions in IVF embryos | :14:14. | :14:18. | |
much faster but also picks up dozens of diseases. The doctors say that | :14:19. | :14:23. | |
so`called karyomapping will lead to healthier babies and save the NHS | :14:24. | :14:27. | |
millions in the longer term but critics say it is taking genetic | :14:28. | :14:34. | |
testing too far. Carmen knows that the little girl or boy she is | :14:35. | :14:37. | |
expecting will be free of serious muscle and nerve condition that | :14:38. | :14:43. | |
affected herself and her father. When she had IVF, only the embryos | :14:44. | :14:49. | |
without the disease were implanted. My only other option was to have the | :14:50. | :14:54. | |
baby tested around week 16 and having to deal with whatever comes | :14:55. | :15:01. | |
back after the test. Carmen's pregnancy is the first in Europe to | :15:02. | :15:05. | |
go through so`called karyomapping, a genetic test done when the embryo is | :15:06. | :15:12. | |
a mere bundle of cells. Just one single cell needs to be taken. The | :15:13. | :15:18. | |
test only takes two weeks instead of the usual six months, great for | :15:19. | :15:22. | |
older women who want to conceive quickly, and it tests for lots of | :15:23. | :15:26. | |
conditions including diseases that might develop in the future. It can | :15:27. | :15:32. | |
be available to some NHS patients. Prevention is better than cure. | :15:33. | :15:40. | |
These are the doozies `` diseases that need long`term management. It | :15:41. | :15:48. | |
is the test's ability to catch so many conditions that some find so | :15:49. | :15:54. | |
worrying. We must not let this technology be used to encourage | :15:55. | :15:58. | |
parents of prospective parents to just say, well we wouldn't want any | :15:59. | :16:05. | |
experience of disability. The ethics of IVF and genetic screening have | :16:06. | :16:09. | |
always provoked hard`fought argument. This test will only lift | :16:10. | :16:11. | |
the lid on a new set of questions. We're live in Glasgow as rising star | :16:12. | :16:17. | |
Adam Gemili goes for gold in the 100 Over a million Muslims | :16:18. | :16:21. | |
in London are celebrating the Festival of Eid today, to mark the | :16:22. | :16:27. | |
end of Ramadan, a month of fasting. An orthodox Rabbi from Edgware | :16:28. | :16:31. | |
has decided to observe the Islamic Rabbi Natan Levy says he's saddened | :16:32. | :16:33. | |
by the situation in the Middle East and he spoke during one | :16:34. | :16:40. | |
of his fasts to Asad Ahmad. This might not sound like a message | :16:41. | :16:55. | |
of peace. The sun is out, the 25th day of Ramadan. That is how many | :16:56. | :16:59. | |
people are seeing it. The mornings are definitely the hardest. During | :17:00. | :17:07. | |
his Muslim Ramadan fast, the rabbi of his normal morning press at his | :17:08. | :17:12. | |
synagogue in Edgware, North London. `` morning prayers. He is trying to | :17:13. | :17:21. | |
do symbolise unity, but the idea was closer to home for fasting. We had a | :17:22. | :17:26. | |
Muslim woman who wanted to come to the synagogue for Friday night | :17:27. | :17:29. | |
prayers. She was wearing a veil, but the Jewish woman sat next to it took | :17:30. | :17:35. | |
one look at her, saw what she was wearing, closed the book and ran out | :17:36. | :17:38. | |
the back door, running home. When I heard about this it made me realise | :17:39. | :17:42. | |
that our two communities are so far apart. The Israeli offensive on Gaza | :17:43. | :17:49. | |
has led to hundreds of deaths, which has only fuelled interest in the | :17:50. | :17:53. | |
Rabbi's Ramadan fast, particularly in the Middle East. Despite the | :17:54. | :17:56. | |
occasional threat received on social media, the support from both faiths | :17:57. | :18:03. | |
has been overwhelmingly positive. There is a natural short distance | :18:04. | :18:07. | |
between the faiths, and a bridge should be an easy way to get across | :18:08. | :18:11. | |
the message that we have so much in common and we would like to work | :18:12. | :18:14. | |
together with the Muslim community on things we naturally have in | :18:15. | :18:18. | |
common. The University of London has been hosting a Ramadan tent where | :18:19. | :18:21. | |
anyone, including the homeless, is welcome to a free meal at sunset. | :18:22. | :18:27. | |
The Rabbi says he has been flooded with information `` invitations from | :18:28. | :18:30. | |
Muslims and has been asked to attend. I truly believe that our | :18:31. | :18:34. | |
faith, our religion speaks to hope always. Always says, what can I do? | :18:35. | :18:45. | |
What can I do for hope and peace? It is abnormal to see a Rabbi fasting, | :18:46. | :18:50. | |
and it is a commendable act. It's fantastic, and that leaves the onus | :18:51. | :18:56. | |
on up to return the favour. `` on us. I think it's a really good | :18:57. | :19:01. | |
symbol to bring different faiths together. One rabbi in London has | :19:02. | :19:07. | |
got people here thinking about and talking about why is it that two | :19:08. | :19:11. | |
major world faiths with so much in common appear so divided on the | :19:12. | :19:15. | |
world stage, particularly in the Middle East? One Muslim student told | :19:16. | :19:18. | |
me a short time ago that this one rabbi has got him feeling hopeful | :19:19. | :19:20. | |
for his future. It's day five of the | :19:21. | :19:29. | |
Commonwealth Games in Glasgow. Tonight the men's 100 metres final | :19:30. | :19:31. | |
takes place, with a young man from the capital | :19:32. | :19:33. | |
among the favourites to take gold. Let's get more from Chris Slegg, | :19:34. | :19:37. | |
who's in Glasgow. What a couple of years Adam Gemili | :19:38. | :19:48. | |
has had, and could tonight be the night that the 20`year`old from | :19:49. | :19:51. | |
Dartford truly arrives with his first senior title? He has won gold | :19:52. | :19:56. | |
medals at junior level, and there is, of course, knew `` no Usain Bolt | :19:57. | :20:02. | |
who is only running in the relay, but it is thought Gemili would still | :20:03. | :20:05. | |
have to go below ten seconds for the first time in his career if he's | :20:06. | :20:11. | |
going to take gold medal. He was the fastest qualifier yesterday, running | :20:12. | :20:16. | |
10.15, one tenth of second shy of his personal best. An incredible | :20:17. | :20:19. | |
transformation because two and a half years ago he was playing | :20:20. | :20:25. | |
football for Dagenham Redbridge, and he is truly relishing the Hamden | :20:26. | :20:29. | |
Park atmosphere. I came in here yesterday to train and I'm Hamden | :20:30. | :20:35. | |
Park, and it's great for me to experience this atmosphere and a | :20:36. | :20:40. | |
different atmosphere to football. I am loving it. Good luck to Adam | :20:41. | :20:45. | |
Gemili. He has to get through the semifinals first. We have another | :20:46. | :20:50. | |
London in the Semel finance `` semifinals, and two women in the | :20:51. | :20:57. | |
women's semifinals, and Asha Philip, born in Leyton, and in the heat | :20:58. | :21:00. | |
yesterday she did enough to make it through. She was a British | :21:01. | :21:03. | |
trampoline `ist until recently, until a serious injury meant she had | :21:04. | :21:07. | |
to give up that sport. She will have been put in the performance of her | :21:08. | :21:11. | |
life if she is going to get a medal position but she is determined to | :21:12. | :21:18. | |
make it beyond the semifinals. I am here to qualify for the final. I've | :21:19. | :21:21. | |
been competing against these girls through the whole season, so it's no | :21:22. | :21:26. | |
different. When I am in that final, it's an ordinary race to me, so I | :21:27. | :21:31. | |
will get there. A big night ahead on the track, but what other highlights | :21:32. | :21:36. | |
have we had today? We have had a bronze medal on the squash court, | :21:37. | :21:41. | |
and squash being played way down the other end of the Clyde, and | :21:42. | :21:45. | |
congratulations to Peter Barker, the 30`year`old from Upminster who took | :21:46. | :21:51. | |
the bronze medal, beating the Indian layer on a stroke penalty, which | :21:52. | :21:55. | |
repeated his achievement at Delhi four years ago when he won a bronze | :21:56. | :21:59. | |
and we have also had a bronze in the shooting. Well done to all of them, | :22:00. | :22:07. | |
and of course it will top it all off if Adam Gemili manages to get a gold | :22:08. | :22:13. | |
tonight. It certainly would. Thank you, Chris. | :22:14. | :22:14. | |
It's been a long time coming, and now after 20 years busking on | :22:15. | :22:18. | |
the capital's streets, Si Cranstoun is about to hit the big time. | :22:19. | :22:21. | |
The South Londoner landed a record deal after being spotted by | :22:22. | :22:23. | |
a major record label and is due to release his solo album this autumn. | :22:24. | :22:27. | |
Our entertainment correspondent Brenda Emmanus took him | :22:28. | :22:29. | |
As a former busker, the streets of London were Si Cranstoun's training | :22:30. | :22:46. | |
ground and stage for 20 years and passers`by in Croydon clearly | :22:47. | :22:48. | |
recognised and appreciated his talent. I think he's really good. He | :22:49. | :22:54. | |
can dance as well. He sings modern songs, old songs, everyone to enjoy, | :22:55. | :23:01. | |
it's good. Were there time she wanted to give up? Never. When I | :23:02. | :23:06. | |
first came onto the streets 20 years ago I performed because I enjoyed | :23:07. | :23:10. | |
and the fact there was money going in the case was a bonus and it | :23:11. | :23:14. | |
remains a bonus to this day. I will always play nothing. Is it true that | :23:15. | :23:20. | |
Tony Blair gave you 30 bequest it was a 20p piece and a 10p piece. I | :23:21. | :23:24. | |
will never forget it because I watch it fall from his mighty hand. I | :23:25. | :23:28. | |
thought, OK, 30p, that's cool, it's money. | :23:29. | :23:35. | |
From 30p from a former Prime Minister, things have looked at. | :23:36. | :23:41. | |
Years spent basking with his brother and then performing on the vintage | :23:42. | :23:45. | |
underground scene helped him build a sizeable following and land a | :23:46. | :23:50. | |
recording deal. His single from his forthcoming album is a hint of what | :23:51. | :23:53. | |
pop and soul fans have do look forward to. Is it a lot more | :23:54. | :23:59. | |
business and pleasure? When the pressure is on? At the moment there | :24:00. | :24:04. | |
is pressure, but I enjoy it and I love getting up in the morning and | :24:05. | :24:08. | |
having this stuff to do. It's an amazing thing to have it all | :24:09. | :24:11. | |
official rather than me getting out of bed and thinking I hope it's not | :24:12. | :24:15. | |
raining so I can get out on the streets. What makes it unique? I | :24:16. | :24:22. | |
think it is his boys. His personality, the lyrics of his | :24:23. | :24:30. | |
songs. Generally his personality. Now married with two children to a | :24:31. | :24:37. | |
fan he met basking it might be less time on the streets and more time in | :24:38. | :24:39. | |
the charts when his album is released in October. | :24:40. | :24:43. | |
He put a smile on my face. A look at the weather with Wendy. | :24:44. | :24:50. | |
Not the best start this morning and some of us really interesting | :24:51. | :24:55. | |
weather, but this week will sort itself out a bit. It will be mostly | :24:56. | :25:01. | |
dry for the beginning part and there will be warm sunny spells to enjoy. | :25:02. | :25:05. | |
I will just show you the latest radar picture because some showers | :25:06. | :25:09. | |
have gone up this afternoon, mainly in the west of London and they are | :25:10. | :25:14. | |
also tailing away, and in the next couple of hours we have weather | :25:15. | :25:18. | |
warnings across parts of Berkshire and Buckinghamshire, but if we do | :25:19. | :25:21. | |
see any showers they won't be quite as interesting as the ones we saw | :25:22. | :25:24. | |
first thing this morning. As we continue through the night we are | :25:25. | :25:28. | |
expecting one or two showers to trickle through in the south`east, | :25:29. | :25:32. | |
mainly affecting parts of Kent but it could get into parts of London | :25:33. | :25:36. | |
and Surrey. Not quite as torrential as we had in the early hours of this | :25:37. | :25:40. | |
morning but there could be one or two heavy bursts here and there | :25:41. | :25:44. | |
through the night. Temperatures will be between 12 and 15 degrees. I | :25:45. | :25:49. | |
suppose one or two of those showers could be with us first thing | :25:50. | :25:52. | |
tomorrow morning and there will be a fair amount of cloud. A bit breezy | :25:53. | :25:57. | |
the day will improve, and I think we the day will improve, and I think we | :25:58. | :26:02. | |
will see some pretty decent sunny spells from lunch time edging their | :26:03. | :26:05. | |
way in which will lift the temperature. Many places will be | :26:06. | :26:10. | |
heading up towards the mid`20s through tomorrow afternoon across | :26:11. | :26:13. | |
the Home Counties with London itself likely to hit 27 degrees in the | :26:14. | :26:18. | |
afternoon. And pretty straightforward on Wednesday. There | :26:19. | :26:22. | |
will be dry weather, maybe a bit of cloud drifting from time to time but | :26:23. | :26:25. | |
we will see sunny spells and temperatures will be at a pleasant | :26:26. | :26:27. | |
and fairly temperatures will be at a pleasant | :26:28. | :26:31. | |
and normal 23 degrees with London seeing it a touch higher. As we go | :26:32. | :26:37. | |
through the week the settled weather will come along and there will be | :26:38. | :26:41. | |
brightness on Thursday and maybe some showers, but largely a decent | :26:42. | :26:45. | |
day. It's when we get to Friday and the weekend there is a bit more | :26:46. | :26:47. | |
instability and there could be further showers but it is a long way | :26:48. | :26:49. | |
off and `` yet. Health officials in Gaza say that | :26:50. | :26:55. | |
at least ten people, including eight children, have been killed | :26:56. | :26:58. | |
by a missile that hit a playground. Gaza's main hospital | :26:59. | :27:01. | |
compound was also hit. Palestinian officials blamed Israeli | :27:02. | :27:03. | |
air strikes, but Israel said both explosions were caused | :27:04. | :27:05. | |
by misfired Palestinian rockets. More than half of the UK could be | :27:06. | :27:10. | |

ten o'clock news, but from everyone on the team, have a lovely evening. | :27:39. | :27:39. | |
Goodbye. I leave the ashram, travel halfway | :27:40. | :27:55. | |
across the world to find my father, Oh, well. As Vashrati says, | :27:56. | :27:59. | |
gotta keep smiling! We don't tend to use the bathroom | :28:00. | :28:07. | |
together here. All right, well, | :28:08. | :28:10. | |
I'll catch you later. This ashram of yours, | :28:11. | :28:11. | |
it might be a cult. I take it back, | :28:12. | :28:15. | |
