Stepping up the fight against internet paedophiles. Leading search | :00:08. | :00:12. | |
engine companies agree measures to make it harder to find child abuse | :00:13. | :00:17. | |
images online. After months of mounting pressure, Microsoft and | :00:18. | :00:20. | |
Google say they will act, preventing searches and triggering warnings | :00:21. | :00:27. | |
that child abuse imagery is illegal. Google are rolling out these search | :00:28. | :00:31. | |
blocks across the world, so people right across the globe will be safer | :00:32. | :00:34. | |
as a result of the action that Britain is taking today. Will be | :00:35. | :00:38. | |
assessing the impact that this will have. Also... At least six people | :00:39. | :00:49. | |
die as powerful tornadoes carve a path of destruction across the US | :00:50. | :00:54. | |
midwest. The cost of independence. The leading economic think tank says | :00:55. | :00:57. | |
taxes might have to rise and spending cut if Scottish voters say | :00:58. | :01:03. | |
yes. New pictures of the devastation caused by Typhoon Haiyan. Ten days | :01:04. | :01:07. | |
on, we're with British forces taking aid to those most in need. And | :01:08. | :01:17. | |
return to the TARDIS, as the 50th anniversary approaches. We meet | :01:18. | :01:23. | |
Doctor Whos old and new. If the call comes to come and celebrate the | :01:24. | :01:29. | |
150th -- 50th anniversary, it would be churlish to turn it down. | :01:30. | :01:36. | |
The Surrey MP embroiled in a battle to save his parliamentary career. | :01:37. | :01:58. | |
Good afternoon. Google and Microsoft are to introduce changes to their | :01:59. | :02:06. | |
internet search engines which will block access to images of child sex | :02:07. | :02:11. | |
abuse. They have developed technology that will prevent more | :02:12. | :02:15. | |
than 100,000 search terms associated with child pornography from | :02:16. | :02:19. | |
producing any results. Earlier this year, David Cameron said internet | :02:20. | :02:23. | |
companies have a moral duty to act. The restrictions will be rolled out | :02:24. | :02:26. | |
over the next six months, but critics warn that most internet | :02:27. | :02:29. | |
paedophiles do not use ordinary search engines. Mark Bridger and | :02:30. | :02:39. | |
Stuart Hazell, both child killers, both known to have searched the | :02:40. | :02:43. | |
internet for child abuse images. In the summer the government told | :02:44. | :02:47. | |
search companies they needed to stop this happening. Now Google and | :02:48. | :02:52. | |
Microsoft have taken action. Type in any one of thousands of search terms | :02:53. | :02:55. | |
and you will get a warning that child abuse imagery is illegal. The | :02:56. | :02:59. | |
results are being cleaned up to make sure they can't provide a pathway to | :03:00. | :03:04. | |
illegal material. In a rare show of unity, the two firms outlined their | :03:05. | :03:08. | |
measures. This change to our search engine, which covers 100,000 terms, | :03:09. | :03:13. | |
should make it much more difficult to find this content online. With | :03:14. | :03:27. | |
both been working in this space for a long time, but we welcome the | :03:28. | :03:29. | |
additional attention that has been brought to the issue. We are | :03:30. | :03:32. | |
passionate and committed to this and will continue to work very hard on | :03:33. | :03:34. | |
it collaboratively -- elaborate of league going forward. But the Prime | :03:35. | :03:36. | |
Minister believes that without his intervention, this would not have | :03:37. | :03:38. | |
happened. He is meeting the internet companies in Downing Street, and | :03:39. | :03:41. | |
warning if they don't deliver on their promises he will bring in new | :03:42. | :03:46. | |
laws. But the Government says much has been achieved. The great news is | :03:47. | :03:50. | |
that Google are rolling out these search blocks across the world. So | :03:51. | :03:53. | |
people right across the globe will be safer as a result of the action | :03:54. | :03:58. | |
that Britain is taken today. It's widely accepted that most of these | :03:59. | :04:02. | |
images aren't available for our searches but are hidden on what is | :04:03. | :04:20. | |
known as the dark web. One former senior police chief isn't convinced | :04:21. | :04:23. | |
the measures will make a big difference. Let's not think that we | :04:24. | :04:25. | |
have really achieved something that will make children safer, because we | :04:26. | :04:27. | |
haven't. Paedophiles do not go online and search out the images on | :04:28. | :04:29. | |
Google, Bing or Yahoo. The hard-core paedophile lives in the deepest, | :04:30. | :04:31. | |
darkest recesses of the internet. The National Crime Agency will now | :04:32. | :04:34. | |
use Google and Microsoft technology to help trace child abuse material | :04:35. | :04:36. | |
and those behind it in the dark corners of the web. Nobody expects | :04:37. | :04:41. | |
that task to be simple. How much impact will this move have? | :04:42. | :04:47. | |
Everybody agrees this only tackles part of the problem. This will | :04:48. | :04:50. | |
tackle the people who are coming across this imagery, they might say | :04:51. | :04:56. | |
accidentally, stumbling across it and perhaps showing curiosity. It | :04:57. | :04:58. | |
will make it much harder for them to get access to it. But as you heard, | :04:59. | :05:04. | |
most of this imagery is believed to be held probably on American sites | :05:05. | :05:09. | |
that are hidden from the general web searches. The fight goes on to track | :05:10. | :05:13. | |
down the people putting that material online and then sharing it. | :05:14. | :05:21. | |
Powerful tornadoes and thunderstorms have left a trail of destruction | :05:22. | :05:25. | |
across five American States, from Kentucky Tomic again. At least six | :05:26. | :05:29. | |
people have been killed, as buildings were destroyed, vehicles | :05:30. | :05:32. | |
overturned, trees uprooted and power lines brought down. Our Father who | :05:33. | :05:44. | |
art in heaven... What else to do but pray when you see this ripping up | :05:45. | :05:53. | |
everything in its path? In Illinois they are used to tornadoes, but | :05:54. | :05:56. | |
there was little defence against such a giant. This thing is getting | :05:57. | :06:02. | |
really wide. Storm system moved fast, triggering dozens of so-called | :06:03. | :06:08. | |
twisters across the midwest. This was four separate ones and now it's | :06:09. | :06:14. | |
turned into one big one. Those who could left their homes and fled its | :06:15. | :06:18. | |
destructive path. This is as close as I ever want to get. Go, go, go! | :06:19. | :06:25. | |
And in the wake of the vortex of wind, the torrential rain. Then | :06:26. | :06:33. | |
hailstones added to the swathe of damage. After the storm, people | :06:34. | :06:40. | |
emerged to find whole neighbourhoods flattened. Washington, in Illinois, | :06:41. | :06:44. | |
was the worst hit. Many had thought tornadoes this late in the season | :06:45. | :06:48. | |
wouldn't be so serious and they'd taken shelter in their houses. It's | :06:49. | :06:53. | |
like a loud train. I said, this isn't right, it's not thunder. It | :06:54. | :06:58. | |
kept coming and getting louder. Then we went in the basement. About ten | :06:59. | :07:02. | |
seconds later I felt the house shaking. I waited about a minute and | :07:03. | :07:08. | |
then came back up. I saw what you are seeing here. My husband came | :07:09. | :07:12. | |
back and I said, I don't know what to do. We stood in the hallway, | :07:13. | :07:15. | |
where there were no windows, and just held each other. It was that | :07:16. | :07:21. | |
quick. The storm weakened as it moved east, but its impact is far | :07:22. | :07:25. | |
from over for these shattered communities. There is no power and | :07:26. | :07:28. | |
there are fears that many may still be trapped under the rubble. A woman | :07:29. | :07:35. | |
has pleaded guilty to murdering three men whose bodies were found | :07:36. | :07:40. | |
dumped in remote ditches in Cambridge. Joanna Dennehy, who is | :07:41. | :07:45. | |
30, also admitted attempting to murder two other men. What happened | :07:46. | :07:51. | |
in court? This was a plea that no one was expecting. It was supposed | :07:52. | :07:55. | |
to be just a standard court appearance before trial, and the | :07:56. | :07:58. | |
trial date is still fixed for later this year. Suddenly, when asked how | :07:59. | :08:04. | |
she plead, she stood up and said she pleaded guilty to the 11 charges | :08:05. | :08:11. | |
against her. That of the murder of a 31-year-old man, a 56 heir man and a | :08:12. | :08:16. | |
48-year-old man. Their bodies were found dumped in ditches in | :08:17. | :08:20. | |
Cambridgeshire in March and April this year. Each had suffered | :08:21. | :08:24. | |
multiple stab wounds. She was also charged with and has pleaded guilty | :08:25. | :08:28. | |
to two counter the tented murder. It was something which took her | :08:29. | :08:33. | |
barristers by surprise. The court adjourned briefly and the barristers | :08:34. | :08:37. | |
will be coming back to the old baby necks -- the Old Bailey next Monday. | :08:38. | :08:44. | |
After entering the pleas, Joanna Dennehy said to the judge, I don't | :08:45. | :08:48. | |
have any wish to say anything else, I've already pleaded guilty. No date | :08:49. | :08:56. | |
has been set for sentencing. An independent Scotland would have to | :08:57. | :09:00. | |
cut public spending by as much as 80% or significantly raise taxes. | :09:01. | :09:04. | |
That is according to a report published by the Institute for | :09:05. | :09:07. | |
Fiscal Studies. They say an independent Scotland would face more | :09:08. | :09:10. | |
than double the size of the challenge of big UK as a whole in | :09:11. | :09:15. | |
bringing its debts down. James Cooke is in Edinburgh for us. This report | :09:16. | :09:23. | |
here really gets to the heart of the independence debate, considering one | :09:24. | :09:27. | |
of the key questions. How does any state afford to pay for the services | :09:28. | :09:31. | |
and benefits that its people want and expect from it? It has to be | :09:32. | :09:36. | |
said, it is campaigners against independents who are giving this | :09:37. | :09:41. | |
report and enthusiastic welcome. What would the future hold for the | :09:42. | :09:45. | |
people of an independent Scotland? Where would they find their money, | :09:46. | :09:50. | |
what would their Government spend it on? The Institute for Fiscal Studies | :09:51. | :09:54. | |
has been trying to predict, and it concludes that Scotland would face a | :09:55. | :09:59. | |
tougher future outside the UK. The ISS says that last year government | :10:00. | :10:03. | |
spending was 11% higher per person in Scotland than the UK average. To | :10:04. | :10:07. | |
begin with, an independent Scotland's oil revenues would make | :10:08. | :10:13. | |
up the shortfall. But the long-term, the ISS says Scotland would need to | :10:14. | :10:16. | |
save ?6 billion. That's the equivalent in a 9% rise in the basic | :10:17. | :10:23. | |
rise of income tax or at 6% cut in public spending. Is independence a | :10:24. | :10:30. | |
daft idea? It's not. Scotland wouldn't be that small and economy | :10:31. | :10:34. | |
by international standards. It could thrive as an independent country but | :10:35. | :10:37. | |
there are many challenges it could face. They could need a combination | :10:38. | :10:41. | |
of bigger tax rises or deeper spending cuts than the UK over the | :10:42. | :10:45. | |
long term to deal with the challenge of an ageing population. In essence, | :10:46. | :10:51. | |
the ISS is saying oil flatters the Scottish economy, but the Scottish | :10:52. | :10:55. | |
government disagrees. John Swinney says that even without oil and gas, | :10:56. | :10:59. | |
Scotland has strong financial and economic foundations. He adds, this | :11:00. | :11:05. | |
report actually underlines the case for an independent Scotland with | :11:06. | :11:08. | |
full control of its own economy and the ability to take decisions that | :11:09. | :11:13. | |
can secure a stronger and more prosperous future. Either way, this | :11:14. | :11:17. | |
document seems certain to be cited time and again as Scotland prepares | :11:18. | :11:20. | |
to vote on independence ten months today. It is already being cited by | :11:21. | :11:30. | |
Alistair Darling, the leader of the better together campaign against | :11:31. | :11:34. | |
independents, who says this is a sober and impartial analysis which | :11:35. | :11:39. | |
leaves the SNP's economic case for independence in tatters. The SNP get | :11:40. | :11:43. | |
a chance to respond in more detail later. They are publishing a White | :11:44. | :11:50. | |
Paper next week. The former Labour MP Denis McShane has pleaded guilty | :11:51. | :11:54. | |
at the Old Bailey to making bogus expense claims of nearly ?13,000. He | :11:55. | :12:00. | |
was accused of producing 19 invoices for a search and translation service | :12:01. | :12:03. | |
in the name of the company called EPI, which were false or misleading. | :12:04. | :12:09. | |
He's been bailed until December 19, when he will be sentenced. A British | :12:10. | :12:14. | |
woman was among the 50 people killed in a plane crash in Russia. Donna | :12:15. | :12:19. | |
Bull, who worked at Bellerby 's College in Cambridge, was on a | :12:20. | :12:23. | |
10-day marketing trip when she died. The Boeing 737 was attempting a | :12:24. | :12:27. | |
second landing when it hit the ground and caught fire. Fresh | :12:28. | :12:34. | |
pictures have emerged of the moment Typhoon high and hit the Philippines | :12:35. | :12:39. | |
ten days ago. The footage shows the storm surge caused by the extremely | :12:40. | :12:43. | |
high winds, sweeping into the town on the island of someone. The | :12:44. | :12:48. | |
pictures were shot by a charity worker from the top story of a | :12:49. | :12:51. | |
boarding house, where six people were taking shelter. More than 4000 | :12:52. | :12:57. | |
people are now thought to have been killed by the typhoon and more than | :12:58. | :13:02. | |
18,000 injured. The Royal Navy's HMS Daring arrived in the Philippines at | :13:03. | :13:06. | |
the weekend, bringing food, medicine and temporary shelters. A British | :13:07. | :13:16. | |
warship joining the massive international effort to get help to | :13:17. | :13:22. | |
places flattened by the typhoon. HMS Daring was on a training exercise of | :13:23. | :13:26. | |
Malaysia when the call came. It headed at full speed to the | :13:27. | :13:31. | |
Philippines. The helicopter on board has been key to finding which remote | :13:32. | :13:37. | |
islands are most in need of help. This is the view they had from | :13:38. | :13:41. | |
on-board will stop here, a boat washed ashore. And along the coast, | :13:42. | :13:47. | |
villages destroyed by the high winds. They took photographs of the | :13:48. | :13:53. | |
coastal communities. Badly hit but not yet receiving the kind of aid | :13:54. | :13:57. | |
now being seen elsewhere. We've been shocked by some of the damage that | :13:58. | :14:01. | |
has been caused. Towards the north-eastern areas, there are some | :14:02. | :14:04. | |
islands there that have been severely damaged. Houses flattened, | :14:05. | :14:12. | |
yes, some really bad damage. The path of the typhoon... The captain | :14:13. | :14:17. | |
of HMS Daring explained where that was, and how Britain's limited | :14:18. | :14:22. | |
resources can help. We can make a vast amount of difference in the | :14:23. | :14:25. | |
initial stages of this kind of operation. We can bring things in | :14:26. | :14:30. | |
such as water and food come to establish the needs and communicate | :14:31. | :14:33. | |
them back to the government and non-government organisations who can | :14:34. | :14:37. | |
provide the longer term assistance these communities require. The | :14:38. | :14:41. | |
mission is for HMS Daring to get back up to those areas it has | :14:42. | :14:44. | |
identified as needing help. The helicopter will continue to make | :14:45. | :14:49. | |
assessments and the age -- which they've brought on board will be | :14:50. | :14:52. | |
taken out of those people who most need it. Extra supplies have been | :14:53. | :14:59. | |
brought abroad. Top all in, food, medicines and containers to deliver | :15:00. | :15:02. | |
sea water purified on the ship. It's a small but significant part of a | :15:03. | :15:06. | |
huge effort to help at least 3 million people whose homes have been | :15:07. | :15:17. | |
destroyed. Our top story. Google and Microsoft are to introduce changes | :15:18. | :15:20. | |
to their internet search engines, which will block access to images of | :15:21. | :15:31. | |
child sex abuse. Later on BBC London, the fire brigade's new | :15:32. | :15:38. | |
exercise. And the research centre calling for hands-free phones to be | :15:39. | :15:45. | |
banned in cars. It was a planet which scientists | :15:46. | :15:48. | |
believe had flowing w0ater and the ability to support life. Mars was | :15:49. | :15:53. | |
once warm and wet. But something happened to its atmosphere, and the | :15:54. | :15:57. | |
Red Planet turned into a cold, dry, and inhospitable place. As our | :15:58. | :16:06. | |
science correspondent Pallab Ghosh explains, the Maven spacecraft will | :16:07. | :16:09. | |
orbit 4,000 miles above Mars to try to find out why. All set and ready | :16:10. | :16:17. | |
for launch. NASA's latest mission to Mars. Its aim is to discover how it | :16:18. | :16:22. | |
ended up the dry, dead planet we see today. This is what it was probably | :16:23. | :16:28. | |
like 4 billion years ago - a beautiful, habitable world, with | :16:29. | :16:32. | |
flowing water and a thick, cloudy atmosphere. Something clearly | :16:33. | :16:39. | |
happened. Water was abundant on early Mars. The environment was | :16:40. | :16:43. | |
capable of supporting liquid water, yet today we see an environment | :16:44. | :16:48. | |
unable to support water. We want to understand the reasons for the | :16:49. | :16:54. | |
change in that climate. NASA's Maven spacecraft will spend a year | :16:55. | :16:58. | |
studying the Martian atmosphere. Much of what we currently know comes | :16:59. | :17:04. | |
from meteorites fallen to earth. This is a meteorite fallen from | :17:05. | :17:08. | |
Mars. Locked inside it is the Martian atmosphere as it was in the | :17:09. | :17:12. | |
distant past. It suggests that it was once like the Earth's and | :17:13. | :17:18. | |
capable of supporting life. The aim of the new mission is to find out | :17:19. | :17:23. | |
what the Red Planet was really like billions of years ago. The great | :17:24. | :17:27. | |
mystery was how Mars lost its once rich atmosphere. It is thought that | :17:28. | :17:33. | |
particles from the Sun, called solar wind, ripped it away. The solar wind | :17:34. | :17:38. | |
has been tugging away at the atmosphere causing it to escape into | :17:39. | :17:42. | |
space. We want to measure the current rate that is happening, and | :17:43. | :17:47. | |
to extrapolate back to see what the atmospheric pressure might have been | :17:48. | :17:50. | |
like 4 billion years ago. The mission may well show that Mars was | :17:51. | :17:55. | |
one similar to the Earth, and help solve the mystery of how it became a | :17:56. | :18:02. | |
desolate world we know today. Police in Paris are on high alert | :18:03. | :18:08. | |
after gun attacks at the newspaper Liberation and the banks Asir Tage | :18:09. | :18:15. | |
in a row. French media ordered a hostagetaking -- reported a | :18:16. | :18:18. | |
hostagetaking on the Champs Elysees. What has been happening? We | :18:19. | :18:23. | |
have a huge manhunt under way here in Paris. The Interior Minister says | :18:24. | :18:28. | |
he has been called by the president, who is out of the country at the | :18:29. | :18:33. | |
moment, and make available every need -- every available means to | :18:34. | :18:37. | |
capture this man. He shot a reporter this morning twice in the chest, and | :18:38. | :18:44. | |
he is said to be in a critical condition. Further to that, the man | :18:45. | :18:49. | |
appeared in the business district and seem to be firing into the air | :18:50. | :18:56. | |
or into the Windows of buildings. Police said he then commandeered a | :18:57. | :19:00. | |
vehicle and made that man drive him to the Champs Elysees, the main | :19:01. | :19:04. | |
shopping street here in Paris. Very busy at the moment with a Christmas | :19:05. | :19:09. | |
market. He was dropped somewhere halfway down the Champs Elysees. At | :19:10. | :19:15. | |
that point, he has disappeared, but he is clearly armed and dangerous. | :19:16. | :19:19. | |
He has already opened fire twice in Paris this morning, and police have | :19:20. | :19:23. | |
helicopters over the city at a moment trying to find him. Thank | :19:24. | :19:26. | |
you. There are warnings today that the | :19:27. | :19:31. | |
legacy of the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games will fall to if | :19:32. | :19:35. | |
the government doesn't do more to support it. A House of Lords" is | :19:36. | :19:39. | |
says that while the Games were an outstanding success, there has been | :19:40. | :19:44. | |
little evidence of change in levels of participation. There are calls | :19:45. | :19:47. | |
for a minister to oversee the legacy. | :19:48. | :19:54. | |
Inspire a generation was the clarion call of London 2012. While the | :19:55. | :19:58. | |
memories of a golden summer for British sport still burn bright, a | :19:59. | :20:02. | |
new report warns that the flames are in danger of flickering out when it | :20:03. | :20:08. | |
comes to London's legacy. We want to see somebody at Cabinet level who | :20:09. | :20:11. | |
has the clear responsibility for making sure that their colleagues | :20:12. | :20:15. | |
across all departments deliver on the legacy of the Olympic Games. The | :20:16. | :20:19. | |
cross-party group of peers are also critical about how the benefits have | :20:20. | :20:25. | |
been geographically spread, with foreign investment as a result of | :20:26. | :20:31. | |
London 2012 resulting in 15,000 jobs in the south-east, but just seven in | :20:32. | :20:36. | |
the north-east. Overall, the report at knowledge is that London 2012 was | :20:37. | :20:41. | |
a success, but it does not see a step change in the number of people | :20:42. | :20:44. | |
participating in sport, a clear pledge leading up to the Games. Now, | :20:45. | :20:49. | |
more needs to be done to keep the Olympic spirit alive. | :20:50. | :20:55. | |
A jury at the Old Bailey has -- Old Bailey has been hearing that Rebekah | :20:56. | :20:59. | |
Brooks was a very demanding editor when she was in charge at the News | :21:00. | :21:03. | |
of the World. A barrister says she wanted high standards. Our | :21:04. | :21:09. | |
correspondent was in court. Justin Wolford, who advised editors and | :21:10. | :21:14. | |
desk editors about the legality of stories, said that Rebekah Brooks | :21:15. | :21:18. | |
was a demanding editor but passionate about her newspaper. Andy | :21:19. | :21:23. | |
Coulson was risk averse, but was somebody who wanted to get stories | :21:24. | :21:27. | |
into the paper. The prosecution says some of those stories were sourced | :21:28. | :21:32. | |
through phone hacking. The lawyer representing Mrs Brooks was asked if | :21:33. | :21:38. | |
he could remember any story sourced by phone hacking. What could he | :21:39. | :21:43. | |
remember advising about the legality of phone hacking? He couldn't | :21:44. | :21:49. | |
remember anything about Glenn Mulcaire. Journalists were very | :21:50. | :21:57. | |
protective, apparently, about their sources. He said he had the | :21:58. | :22:01. | |
lawyers' focus. He said he looked at what was written in the story, | :22:02. | :22:05. | |
rather than the sourcing of it. He was asked to monitored the method | :22:06. | :22:14. | |
you spy -- used by journalists. He said that that was the department | :22:15. | :22:19. | |
heads. The prosecutor asked to monitored the methods of the | :22:20. | :22:22. | |
department heads. He said that that would be the editor and the managing | :22:23. | :22:27. | |
editor. Rebekah Brooks and Andy Coulson deny all the charges they | :22:28. | :22:32. | |
face here at the Old Bailey. Thank you. With only three days to | :22:33. | :22:38. | |
go until the Ashes get started in Australia, England are given -- | :22:39. | :22:41. | |
giving the wicketkeeper Matt prior as long as possible to prove his | :22:42. | :22:47. | |
fitness ahead of the first test in Brisbane. But the front pages are | :22:48. | :22:53. | |
taken up with Kevin Pietersen, who has tweeted that no one outside of | :22:54. | :22:58. | |
Australia has heard of Brisbane. Matt Prior on Monday came through a | :22:59. | :23:06. | |
session in the nets. For England, putting on his pants was an | :23:07. | :23:09. | |
incorrigible sign. Right now, there's plenty of torque. James | :23:10. | :23:17. | |
Anderson and Graeme Swann on BBC, making use of a cosy studio in | :23:18. | :23:23. | |
Brisbane. Ashes past will not define the future necessarily. One thing we | :23:24. | :23:29. | |
are excited by was that we didn't play our best in England against | :23:30. | :23:33. | |
Australia, but we still ended up winning 3-0. We are hopeful we are | :23:34. | :23:37. | |
going to play better cricket than we did, and we know we will have to | :23:38. | :23:41. | |
play better cricket than we did to have a chance of winning. If England | :23:42. | :23:46. | |
say they have to get better, what about Australia? Across Brisbane, | :23:47. | :23:51. | |
here is their training session. Shane Watson bowled very gingerly, | :23:52. | :23:56. | |
but it is a sign of progress in his fitness battle. David Warner got his | :23:57. | :24:05. | |
famous fighting hands flying. As far as I am concerned from the | :24:06. | :24:08. | |
Australian point of view, we are very up for the final. I don't | :24:09. | :24:15. | |
really care what England is doing. England are in Brisbane. Kevin | :24:16. | :24:18. | |
Pietersen's walk through the airport was deemed front-page news in one | :24:19. | :24:24. | |
newspaper, apparently a display of extreme arrogance. Responding on | :24:25. | :24:28. | |
Twitter, Kevin Pietersen said no one outside of Australia had heard of | :24:29. | :24:33. | |
Brisbane. This was Monday afternoon. Similar weather is | :24:34. | :24:38. | |
predicted later in the week. Take shelter anywhere. For all the | :24:39. | :24:41. | |
aggression, the first test might require plenty of patience. | :24:42. | :24:47. | |
He spent nearly a millennium travelling light years from home, | :24:48. | :24:52. | |
but now the Doctor has reached a special milestone - half a century | :24:53. | :24:57. | |
on our television screens. The occasion is being marked tonight | :24:58. | :25:00. | |
with a special ceremony at Buckingham Palace, the first of a | :25:01. | :25:05. | |
series of events leading up to the 50th anniversary episode of Doctor | :25:06. | :25:15. | |
Who on Saturday. It is a story viewers have been | :25:16. | :25:19. | |
anticipating for years. It is such a significant celebration of Doctor | :25:20. | :25:25. | |
Who, a few things had to be included. There's aliens, a | :25:26. | :25:31. | |
companion, and a Time Lord. Or two. Or three. I'm looking for the | :25:32. | :25:43. | |
Doctor. Well, you've certainly come to the right place. This is the | :25:44. | :25:46. | |
episode people have been talking about for so long. It is a great | :25:47. | :25:52. | |
privilege. It is a thrill. It has been really thrilling to make. There | :25:53. | :25:56. | |
is something extraordinary about all the doctors meeting, which made it | :25:57. | :26:02. | |
very fun to act in and be part of. For the Golden -- anniversary, the | :26:03. | :26:10. | |
show is welcoming back David Tennant's doctor, last seen several | :26:11. | :26:15. | |
years ago. I am none -- I am 904 years old. I am the bringer of | :26:16. | :26:21. | |
darkness. And you are basically just a rabbit. | :26:22. | :26:27. | |
It is completely different and yet weirdly familiar. Lovely to be back. | :26:28. | :26:34. | |
Was it a hard decision? Not really. If the call comes to come and | :26:35. | :26:38. | |
celebrate Doctor Who's 50th anniversary, it would be churlish to | :26:39. | :26:42. | |
turn it down. Joining them is better and actor John hurt, as another | :26:43. | :26:47. | |
incarnation of the Time Lord. He says he jumped at the opportunity to | :26:48. | :26:54. | |
take part. It is irresistible. The enquiry came in, and I thought, I | :26:55. | :26:58. | |
will have to have a go at that. I've never done anything like this | :26:59. | :27:02. | |
before. Perhaps the luckiest person onset is companion Clara, played by | :27:03. | :27:10. | |
Jenna Coleman. Another companion has been added to the mix. Who is your | :27:11. | :27:17. | |
favourite? You can't do that to me! They are really close. I am spoilt | :27:18. | :27:24. | |
for choice right now. The full details of the plot are still under | :27:25. | :27:30. | |
wraps, but, predict to Billy, expectations for this particular | :27:31. | :27:35. | |
adventure are understandably high. Of course, because of the interest | :27:36. | :27:40. | |
in this story, it has a difficult balancing act. It has to entertain | :27:41. | :27:44. | |
occasional viewers watching because of the special nature of the | :27:45. | :27:49. | |
episode, while at the same time, satisfying long-term fans. Great men | :27:50. | :27:55. | |
are forged in fire. That is what the Doctor Who team is promising - and | :27:56. | :28:01. | |
episode that celebrates the past as well is looking to the future. | :28:02. | :28:07. | |
With the weather, here is Darren. The much heralded cold weather is | :28:08. | :28:17. | |
beginning to arrive. We still have mild conditions across England and | :28:18. | :28:22. | |
Wales, but it isn't lasting, because the colder air is pushing into | :28:23. | :28:26. | |
Scotland and Northern Ireland. You can see the difference on the | :28:27. | :28:29. | |
satellite picture. In the mild area we have flat, layered cloud, and we | :28:30. | :28:35. | |
have speckled cloud in the cold area. A spell of rain is pushing | :28:36. | :28:39. | |
into the Midlands and into the south-west. Behind it, some | :28:40. | :28:44. | |
sunshine. Showers turning increasingly wintry in Scotland and | :28:45. | :28:48. | |
Northern Ireland. Temperatures are milder in the south and south-east. | :28:49. | :28:53. | |
That mild as soon gets pushed away. We are all going to get into the | :28:54. | :28:58. | |
cold conditions overnight. Widespread frost, and maybe some icy | :28:59. | :29:02. | |
roads as well. This band of rain shouldn't last long. Then, the | :29:03. | :29:07. | |
clearer, colder air that follows. Northern winds bringing increasingly | :29:08. | :29:13. | |
wintry showers into Scotland, Northern Ireland, parts of England | :29:14. | :29:18. | |
and Wales. The risk of icy roads is mainly from Wales northwards. A | :29:19. | :29:24. | |
really cold start to tomorrow. There could well be some snow in lower | :29:25. | :29:29. | |
levels in Scotland. Some wintry showers grazing the west Coast of | :29:30. | :29:36. | |
Scotland. For a while, maybe some snow in Northern Ireland as well. | :29:37. | :29:41. | |
The showers feeding over the Irish Sea, maybe coming into western | :29:42. | :29:44. | |
Wales, and one or two in the Midlands and towards the south-west. | :29:45. | :29:50. | |
For many eastern areas of the UK, it will start try and sunny. It will | :29:51. | :29:55. | |
certainly be cold, with a frost in most places. The winds keep the | :29:56. | :30:00. | |
showers going, mainly around western coastal areas here. Later, we will | :30:01. | :30:05. | |
see the Kirk loud and wet weather in the north-west of Scotland, but many | :30:06. | :30:12. | |
will have a dry day tomorrow. But a good few degrees colder than we have | :30:13. | :30:17. | |
had for some time. Frost in the south tomorrow night. We have wet | :30:18. | :30:20. | |
and windy weather around the low pressure coming into the north. For | :30:21. | :30:26. | |
a while, a spell of snow over the Highlands and Grampians, but it is | :30:27. | :30:30. | |
mostly going to be rain that is driven southwards on Wednesday | :30:31. | :30:34. | |
across the whole of the UK by some pretty lively winds. Severe gales in | :30:35. | :30:39. | |
the north. It will feel cold in the wind, and it stays cold through the | :30:40. | :30:46. | |
rest of the week. A reminder of our main story this | :30:47. | :30:51. | |
lunchtime: Google and Microsoft are to introduce changes to their | :30:52. | :30:56. | |
Internet search engines which will block access to images | :30:57. | :30:57. |
