supporters of the ousted Egyptian president. More than 50 people on | :00:12. | :00:17. | |
dead. The interim government urges | :00:17. | :00:21. | |
restraint as followers of Muhammad Morsi call on Egyptians to rise up | :00:21. | :00:29. | |
against the army. Our cause is just. It is a military coup. The | :00:29. | :00:33. | |
supporters say it was a massacre. The military say they acted in self | :00:33. | :00:37. | |
defence. Also tonight, a special celebration for Wimbledon winger | :00:37. | :00:41. | |
Andy Murray at number ten, as the prime minister says he deserves a | :00:41. | :00:45. | |
knighthood. More challenging maths, science and | :00:45. | :00:47. | |
history. The government publishes its new | :00:47. | :00:57. | |

feel-good factor created by Andy Murray and the Lions. | :01:33. | :01:37. | |
Good evening and welcome to the BBC News at six. More than 50 supporters | :01:37. | :01:42. | |
of the deposed Egyptian President Mohammad Morsi have been killed in a | :01:43. | :01:45. | |
confrontation outside the barracks in Cairo, where it is believed he is | :01:45. | :01:50. | |
being held after last week's coup. His party, the Muslim Brotherhood, | :01:50. | :01:54. | |
accused the army of a massacre. The military said they acted in self | :01:54. | :02:01. | |
defence. Yes, shocking events for judging is | :02:02. | :02:10. | |
to. They happened just a short distance from here is where those 50 | :02:10. | :02:14. | |
people were killed and over 400 injured, apparently by their own | :02:14. | :02:19. | |
security forces. A lot of supporters of the Muslim Brotherhood and the | :02:19. | :02:22. | |
deposed president are heading here to offer their prayers for those who | :02:22. | :02:29. | |
died. It has plunged families into grief and Egypt even further into | :02:29. | :02:32. | |
crisis. While accounts of what happened to | :02:32. | :02:37. | |
differ, we do know that dozens of supporters of the deposed Morsi, | :02:37. | :02:42. | |
were left dead. Mobile phone footage appears to show police and soldiers | :02:43. | :02:48. | |
firing at a crowd. It is outside a building where many believe the Army | :02:48. | :02:54. | |
is detaining the former president and it is where, at dawn, pro-Morsi | :02:54. | :02:58. | |
supporters were staging a sit in. Victims were first taken to a field | :02:58. | :03:08. | |
:03:08. | :03:12. | ||
clinic close to the site. This is my documentation. Police opened | :03:12. | :03:21. | |
gunfire, and then, without any objection from them, the military | :03:21. | :03:28. | |
forces were just observing. They did nothing. In chaotic scenes, the dead | :03:28. | :03:31. | |
and the hundreds of wounded were then moved to hospitals that could | :03:31. | :03:38. | |
barely cope. This hospital close to the scene is filled with casualties | :03:38. | :03:43. | |
like this, with gunshot wounds, even spilling out into the corridor. | :03:43. | :03:47. | |
Emotions are running very high. Everyone we have spoken to insist | :03:47. | :03:52. | |
that the firing was unprovoked. It is not the way Egypt's dangerous | :03:52. | :03:59. | |
rifts are going to be healed. We got a call this morning to say my | :04:00. | :04:06. | |
brother was shot. I came here. Turns out he was shot in the left side of | :04:06. | :04:12. | |
his chest. Absolutely outraged. This was a peaceful sit in. But the | :04:12. | :04:17. | |
military insists that its soldiers were shot at first and that an armed | :04:17. | :04:23. | |
group had tried to infiltrate their compound. Egyptian state TV has been | :04:23. | :04:26. | |
broadcasting State video, apparently showing some of the demonstrators | :04:26. | :04:32. | |
firing weapons. At the spot where the killings took place, there | :04:32. | :04:35. | |
remains a stand-off between soldiers and supporters of Mohammed Morsi. | :04:35. | :04:40. | |
The army has warned them to leave. Muslim Brotherhood supporters, | :04:40. | :04:44. | |
though, have gone from the shock of losing their leaders to utter Furia | :04:44. | :04:50. | |
at what has happened since. Their party has called for an uprising. | :04:50. | :04:55. | |
The potential for more violence is clear, and today's events have made | :04:55. | :04:59. | |
it even harder to see a way out of Egypt's descent into civil | :04:59. | :05:05. | |
conflict. A lot of the Morsi supporters say they are upset that | :05:05. | :05:10. | |
the army has not expressed regret for what happened, only issued more | :05:10. | :05:13. | |
threats. The Muslim Brotherhood as an term | :05:13. | :05:16. | |
called for an intifada, an uprising. A political solution to | :05:16. | :05:23. | |
the crisis seems out of the question for now. | :05:23. | :05:27. | |
Now, it has been a whirlwind 24 hours for the new Wimbledon | :05:27. | :05:30. | |
champion, Andy Murray. He says he did not want to go to sleep last | :05:30. | :05:33. | |
night, for fear that he would wake up and find that his victory had | :05:33. | :05:38. | |
been a dream. This afternoon, you went to Downing Street to be met by | :05:38. | :05:41. | |
the prime minister, who said he could not think of anyone more | :05:41. | :05:50. | |
deserving of a knighthood. It is an image we will never tire of | :05:50. | :05:54. | |
seeing, the golden moment when Andy Murray ended Britain's agonising | :05:55. | :06:01. | |
wait for a Wimbledon champion. Nearly 24 hours after rewriting | :06:01. | :06:05. | |
history, it was off to Downing Street for an audience with the | :06:05. | :06:09. | |
prime minister, with talk of a knighthood already in the air. This | :06:09. | :06:14. | |
outsider from Dunblane is well on his way to becoming a part of the | :06:14. | :06:18. | |
sporting establishment. So what does winning the Wimbledon title mean? | :06:18. | :06:22. | |
Back at the scene of his triumph today, he said he was still | :06:22. | :06:28. | |
struggling to come to terms with it. Such a big event for British | :06:28. | :06:34. | |
court, something I had heard about for a long time. Over 70 years since | :06:34. | :06:42. | |
any Brit had won Wimbledon. That will take a while to sink in. Did | :06:42. | :06:47. | |
you get much sleep last night? slept for about an hour, Max. | :06:47. | :06:51. | |
feel Okada this morning. Just happy to be sitting down. With Wimbledon | :06:51. | :07:00. | |
conquered, his future has never looked brighter. The waiting is | :07:00. | :07:06. | |
over! Even before this, Murray was a multimillionaire. Now his earnings | :07:06. | :07:12. | |
could be set to soar, especially if he can go on to win more titles and | :07:12. | :07:19. | |
become the world number one. But how far does he think he can go? I want | :07:19. | :07:23. | |
to keep doing better. I want to win another Grand Slam. But I am not | :07:23. | :07:27. | |
going to put numbers on it, because it took me so long to win my first | :07:27. | :07:33. | |
one. I know how hard these tournaments are to win. Inevitably, | :07:33. | :07:37. | |
Murray's success has prompted a debate about legacy. What Andy | :07:37. | :07:40. | |
Murray achieved here on Centre Court yesterday will live long in the | :07:40. | :07:44. | |
memory, but the challenge for British tennis is to use this moment | :07:44. | :07:51. | |
of history to create something lasting for the future. The awkward | :07:51. | :07:55. | |
truth for British tennis is that Murray's rise to the top disguises | :07:55. | :08:00. | |
an alarming lack of depth. At grassroots level, the picture is | :08:00. | :08:04. | |
even more worrying, with authorities facing criticism for failing to | :08:04. | :08:08. | |
drive up participation. Tennis in this country has a bad reputation, | :08:08. | :08:16. | |
so I hope yesterday helps with that. I hope we can get more kids playing | :08:16. | :08:21. | |
and see some more grand slam champions in the future. That is the | :08:21. | :08:25. | |
challenge facing British tennis now, how to use Andy Murray's | :08:25. | :08:30. | |
breakthrough moment to create a new generation of winners. David is with | :08:30. | :08:36. | |
me now. How can tennis capitalise on this? | :08:36. | :08:39. | |
There are two issues which the lawn tennis Association, the governing | :08:39. | :08:48. | |
body for the sport are facing. first is at elite level. The | :08:48. | :08:51. | |
statistics are damning. Andy Murray is only -- the only man in the world | :08:51. | :08:55. | |
top 100. For the women, there are two, Heather Watson and Laura | :08:55. | :08:59. | |
Robson. The LTA say the signs at junior level are promising, but it | :08:59. | :09:03. | |
could be many years before we get another player of Andy Murray's | :09:03. | :09:07. | |
quality coming through. The second point is about participation at | :09:08. | :09:17. | |
grassroots level. Participation numbers among adults are down. The | :09:17. | :09:22. | |
LTA does not seem to be making progress with that. So this is the | :09:22. | :09:25. | |
opportunity that British tennis has been waiting for the 77 years. They | :09:26. | :09:32. | |
have to make the most of it. Children from five to 14 are to be | :09:32. | :09:37. | |
taught a new national curriculum in schools in England from September | :09:37. | :09:40. | |
next year. The revisions mean a greater focus on grammar and | :09:40. | :09:44. | |
science, with more challenging maths. The prime minister has | :09:44. | :09:49. | |
described the plans as rigorous and tough. Teaching unions say the | :09:49. | :09:59. | |
:09:59. | :10:01. | ||
changes are being brought into fast. Make one more fold, and then make it | :10:01. | :10:04. | |
into quarters. Fractions for five-year-olds is the new plan, | :10:04. | :10:09. | |
although at this school, yeah one already get to grips with quarters. | :10:09. | :10:12. | |
The national curriculum is the body of learning that all pupils must be | :10:12. | :10:22. | |
:10:22. | :10:23. | ||
taught. The government says schools in England have fallen behind | :10:23. | :10:27. | |
international competitors, and it wants them to be more ambitious. | :10:27. | :10:30. | |
Children should be taught how to write computer code, how to use 3-D | :10:30. | :10:31. | |
printers, how to handle complex mathematical processes, how to | :10:31. | :10:34. | |
appreciate a wider than ever range of literature. Expectations of what | :10:34. | :10:37. | |
children should achieve will change. In maths, nine-year-olds | :10:37. | :10:42. | |
will have to learn that 12 times table. At present, it is up to the | :10:42. | :10:46. | |
ten times table for 11-year-olds. In science, evolution will be taught in | :10:46. | :10:52. | |
primary school for the first time. But in history, pupils will only be | :10:52. | :10:55. | |
taught up to 1066 after criticism that going further would overload | :10:55. | :11:00. | |
young minds. I expect you to set straight throughout my lesson, with | :11:00. | :11:06. | |
your hands in your lap. A taste of a Victorian classroom at a London | :11:06. | :11:12. | |
museum as part of a history trip. They all enjoy the subject. But how | :11:12. | :11:17. | |
do they feel about plans to make them learn more dates? Last year, we | :11:17. | :11:23. | |
were learning about the Tudors, and I don't remember any dates. I just | :11:23. | :11:30. | |
remember what happened. It is important to know the basics. | :11:30. | :11:36. | |
all the main parts of history that might be important. Back in the | :11:36. | :11:42. | |
modern classroom, the head is worried by the plans. And elements | :11:42. | :11:47. | |
of the national curriculum, but keep what we have got. It works. It was | :11:47. | :11:51. | |
improving. Teachers have got used to it, and suddenly we are having to | :11:51. | :11:57. | |
change it again. Lessons here the year after next will be very | :11:57. | :11:59. | |
different, with harder topics earlier on and more to get through. | :11:59. | :12:06. | |
Some say the timetable is too rushed. Changes in England are due | :12:06. | :12:10. | |
in September 2014, and while Wales is reviewing its arrangements, in | :12:10. | :12:14. | |
other nations there is no change. But England's academies and free | :12:14. | :12:18. | |
schools can choose not to follow this curriculum, which will lead to | :12:18. | :12:26. | |
some questioning its relevance. One of Britain's most wanted | :12:26. | :12:30. | |
criminals has been arrested in southern Spain. Mark Lilley, who is | :12:30. | :12:35. | |
41 and from Warrington in Cheshire, was found in a secret room concealed | :12:35. | :12:38. | |
behind a wardrobe in a villa in Malaga. He went on the run in 2000 | :12:39. | :12:43. | |
during a trial for drug have a king. He was convicted and sentenced to 23 | :12:43. | :12:46. | |
years in prison in his absence. A man accused of the murder of a | :12:46. | :12:51. | |
four-year-old boy has told a court that his mother was prone to violent | :12:51. | :12:53. | |
outbursts. Daniel Pelka was allegedly starved | :12:53. | :12:58. | |
and murdered by his mother and partner. Both admit child cruelty, | :12:58. | :13:05. | |
but denied murder and causing or allowing Daniel's death. The plane | :13:05. | :13:08. | |
that crashed at San Francisco airport on Saturday was travelling | :13:08. | :13:12. | |
slower than it should have been as it made its final approach, | :13:12. | :13:18. | |
according to investigators. Two people died, although there are | :13:18. | :13:21. | |
reports that one of them may have been killed by an emergency vehicle | :13:21. | :13:28. | |
at the scene of the crash. Look at that one. The final moments | :13:28. | :13:33. | |
of flight 214, caught by an amateur cameraman across the San Francisco | :13:33. | :13:43. | |
:13:43. | :13:48. | ||
Bay. Oh, my God. This was where it ended up, a smoking wreck, fire | :13:48. | :13:52. | |
still burning inside. There was no warning for the passengers. They | :13:52. | :13:56. | |
jumped from what was left of the plane using emergency slides, | :13:56. | :14:06. | |
desperate to get away. Bang! The impact was so powerful. The captain | :14:06. | :14:16. | |
:14:16. | :14:17. | ||
was screaming, emergency evacuation. Two schoolgirls were killed. They | :14:17. | :14:20. | |
were Chinese students coming to California to pack test their | :14:20. | :14:25. | |
English over the summer. One of the girls may have been killed by an | :14:25. | :14:30. | |
emergency vehicle on the runway. Flying into San Francisco too low | :14:31. | :14:37. | |
and too slow, the Asiana flight hit a sea wall. Its landing gear and its | :14:37. | :14:42. | |
tail were ripped off. The body of the plane skidded almost 2000 feet | :14:42. | :14:50. | |
before it came to rest and burst into flames. There is no sign yet of | :14:50. | :14:54. | |
any mechanical failure. The pilot had not landed this kind of plane at | :14:54. | :14:59. | |
this airport before. Just seven seconds before the crash, an alarm | :14:59. | :15:04. | |
went off. The pilot tried to pull up just moments before impact, but by | :15:04. | :15:14. | |
then it was too late. Our top story this evening: Chaos in | :15:14. | :15:17. | |

:15:27. | :15:36. | ||
More than 50 people are dead. Still to come... Andy Murray's | :15:36. | :15:42. | |
victory has lifted our spirits - says the Prime Minister - we'll be | :15:42. | :15:52. | |
:15:52. | :15:55. | ||
asking where it fits in British sporting history. | :15:55. | :15:59. | |
A report on a scandal at children's homes in North Wales in the 1970s | :15:59. | :16:02. | |
and '80s has been published - 17 years after it was suppressed for | :16:02. | :16:06. | |
fear that the adults named, might sue for libel. The Jillings report, | :16:06. | :16:08. | |
which has now been published online, concluded that abuse was extensive | :16:08. | :16:11. | |
and took place over a substantial number of years. Our Wales | :16:11. | :16:20. | |
correspondent Hywel Griffith reports. To be used where they | :16:20. | :16:24. | |
should have been protected. What happened to children in care homes | :16:24. | :16:29. | |
across North Wales is now the subject of two major investigations, | :16:29. | :16:37. | |
but attempts to expose the scale of abuse 17 years ago were suppressed. | :16:37. | :16:47. | |
:16:47. | :16:47. | ||
The Jillings inquiry report was suppressed, but today it has been | :16:47. | :16:53. | |
released with sections blocked out. It warns the interest of children | :16:53. | :16:58. | |
have almost invariably been sacrificed. There have been | :16:58. | :17:03. | |
suicides, lives severely disrupted undisturbed. At least 12 young | :17:03. | :17:09. | |
people are dead. The treatment of children was peace deal, really. | :17:09. | :17:12. | |
They weren't treated like human beings because they were regarded as | :17:12. | :17:18. | |
delinquents whose behaviour needed to be brought under control. That | :17:18. | :17:22. | |
wasn't necessarily done by reason, it was done by knocking it out of | :17:23. | :17:29. | |
them. As a 12-year-old, Keith Gregory was abused in care, he says | :17:29. | :17:34. | |
the decision to pull the report meant victims were left vulnerable | :17:34. | :17:40. | |
for years. We have this fear, are these people allowed to abuse | :17:41. | :17:45. | |
people? They could have been taken off the road along time ago and how | :17:45. | :17:51. | |
many people have been hurt because of this report being pulped? | :17:52. | :17:57. | |
report also reveals the frustration felt, saying there were serious | :17:57. | :18:01. | |
allegations against officers but no way to be sure they had been | :18:01. | :18:06. | |
properly investigated. The Newsnight report last year which led to a Tory | :18:06. | :18:10. | |
peer being falsely accused of paedophilia returned the spotlight | :18:10. | :18:14. | |
to North Wales, but the council which ran the homes has since been | :18:14. | :18:19. | |
disbanded. Its former leader says it is vital the right people are | :18:19. | :18:25. | |
brought to justice. It is about time the place, the George and the others | :18:25. | :18:29. | |
got together and started to be transparent and I hope at the end of | :18:29. | :18:36. | |
this period that we get to the truth of what happened and nothing is | :18:36. | :18:40. | |
hidden. Today signals a small victory for those who for years have | :18:41. | :18:46. | |
claimed a cover-up, but it is only another chapter in a tragic story | :18:46. | :18:55. | |
which has blighted and destroyed lives. | :18:55. | :18:58. | |
Canada's Prime Minister says the area affected by Saturday's | :18:58. | :19:01. | |
explosion, still looks like a war zone. At least five people are | :19:01. | :19:04. | |
confirmed dead but scores are still missing. More than 70 runaway train | :19:04. | :19:06. | |
cars, carrying pressurised containers of crude oil, exploded in | :19:06. | :19:09. | |
Lac-Megantic. The fires were so intense, some were still raging 36 | :19:09. | :19:15. | |
hours on. Police warn some bodies may never be recovered. The train | :19:15. | :19:18. | |
cars somehow became uncoupled at the small Canadian town of Nantes during | :19:18. | :19:23. | |
an overnight shift change. They then gathered speed, rolled downhill, and | :19:23. | :19:27. | |
derailed in the heart of Lac-Megantic, some four miles away. | :19:27. | :19:36. | |
Paul Adams reports. More than two days after the first | :19:36. | :19:41. | |
explosions, a scene of devastation and lingering danger. Much of | :19:41. | :19:47. | |
Lac-Megantic to hazardous to examine overnight, and death toll that seems | :19:48. | :19:51. | |
destined to rise. Many of the missing are thought to have been | :19:51. | :19:55. | |
drinking in a bar in the early hours of Saturday when the train blew up | :19:55. | :20:02. | |
in the centre of town. We are still talking about around 40 people still | :20:02. | :20:07. | |
reported missing and we don't know their whereabouts. One local likened | :20:07. | :20:16. | |
it to an atomic bomb, a giant fireball as train derailed, and some | :20:16. | :20:22. | |
of its 73 wagons of crude oil exploded. Dozens of nearby buildings | :20:22. | :20:25. | |
flattened or vaporised. The reasons for this are still a mystery. The | :20:25. | :20:31. | |
train travelled out of control for eight miles from a nearby town. | :20:31. | :20:35. | |
Firemen had already put out an engine fire late on Friday minutes | :20:35. | :20:40. | |
before the parked train simply rolled away. Canada's Prime Minister | :20:40. | :20:45. | |
toured the scene on Sunday, saying it was like a war zone. He may find | :20:46. | :20:49. | |
himself answering questions about the rising volumes of crude oil | :20:50. | :20:54. | |
travelling by rail from oilfields in Western Canada. A local secondary | :20:54. | :21:00. | |
school has been turned into an emergency shelter as many as 2000 | :21:00. | :21:04. | |
people forced from their homes. There is uncertainty and dread here, | :21:04. | :21:10. | |
some people are still missing family members. Investigators are looking | :21:10. | :21:14. | |
at whether the train's breaks were somehow switched off. One locomotive | :21:15. | :21:19. | |
was left running to make sure the brakes worked. There were also | :21:19. | :21:23. | |
questions about pollution, an unknown quantity of fuel has spilled | :21:23. | :21:28. | |
into a nearby river and lake. This could turn into Canada's most deadly | :21:28. | :21:38. | |
:21:38. | :21:41. | ||
rail disaster in more than 50 years. The post office has admitted there | :21:41. | :21:45. | |
have been bugs in a computer system at the centre of a bitter dispute | :21:45. | :21:47. | |
with subpostmasters who say they were wrongly prosecuted for fraud. | :21:47. | :21:51. | |
More than 100 subpostmasters may sue the post office after they say they | :21:51. | :21:54. | |
were forced to pay back tens of thousands of pounds after their post | :21:54. | :21:56. | |
office computers created nonexistent shortfalls. Some have lost their | :21:56. | :21:59. | |
livelihoods and homes as a result, and a handful have served prison | :21:59. | :22:06. | |
sentences. The Conservative chairman Grant | :22:06. | :22:10. | |
Shapps has insisted that his party's members do a fantastic job up and | :22:10. | :22:13. | |
down the country. He was speaking after a survey of more than 850 Tory | :22:13. | :22:16. | |
members suggested that more than half felt they were not respected by | :22:16. | :22:19. | |
the party leadership and almost one in five were seriously considering | :22:19. | :22:21. | |
voting UKIP. Our deputy political editor, James Landale, has the | :22:22. | :22:29. | |
story. The Conservative party at play. | :22:29. | :22:34. | |
Grassroots members gathered for a party in Kent, thank you for their | :22:35. | :22:43. | |
work over the year. With the positive economic news, their mood | :22:43. | :22:47. | |
is as sunny as the weather. But dig a little deeper, and there are some | :22:47. | :22:57. | |
:22:57. | :22:58. | ||
worries. What can I say about UKIP? They express a valid concern of many | :22:58. | :23:05. | |
conservative minded people. I think we are wishy-washy at times. I | :23:05. | :23:09. | |
suppose I am saying go back to Margaret Thatcher and say this is | :23:09. | :23:14. | |
what we are going to do. marriage makes no difference to me | :23:14. | :23:20. | |
at all, however in Beckenham some of them feel quite strongly about it. | :23:20. | :23:25. | |
feel you should look after your own before you look after everyone | :23:25. | :23:29. | |
else. David Cameron has to appeal to the country and not just his party | :23:29. | :23:34. | |
to win the next election, but he needs people like these to knock on | :23:34. | :23:38. | |
doors and spread the word. Behind the smiles there are some concerns | :23:38. | :23:48. | |
:23:48. | :23:48. | ||
are echoed in a survey of Tory MPs that suggests that 19% of Tory | :23:48. | :23:52. | |
members are seriously considering voting UKIP. More than half believe | :23:52. | :23:57. | |
they are not respected by the party leadership, and only 19% believe the | :23:57. | :24:05. | |
Conservatives will win an overall majority at the next election. When | :24:05. | :24:13. | |
-- Westminster Tory MPs are less worried. Here is a party that on | :24:13. | :24:17. | |
Friday voted for this EU referendum Bill, enormously popular. People | :24:17. | :24:23. | |
think it is time to have a choice, and nowadays people join a party, | :24:23. | :24:27. | |
not necessarily join but still come out and campaign and there are lots | :24:27. | :24:35. | |
of ways of doing that. Surveys like these suggest people like these are | :24:35. | :24:40. | |
becoming less active. Less than two years from an election, this is a | :24:40. | :24:45. | |
gap the party will want to narrow. Let's go back to yesterday's | :24:45. | :24:51. | |
triumphant scenes at Wimbledon, where Andy Murray's victory was | :24:51. | :24:55. | |
watched by a peak audience of 17 million viewers. The Prime Minister | :24:55. | :24:59. | |
invited him to Downing Street, saying his win had lifted the | :24:59. | :25:03. | |
spirits of the whole country. Are we feeling more like a nation of | :25:03. | :25:10. | |
winners? Andy Swiss reports. It was a moment that United nation in | :25:10. | :25:14. | |
celebration, from Centre Court to Murray mound, from Hyde Park to | :25:15. | :25:22. | |
Plymouth, at pubs and picnics across the country, rarely has Britain felt | :25:22. | :25:30. | |
quite so deliriously happy. Today, in a sundrenched Wimbledon Village, | :25:30. | :25:34. | |
the players and the fans might have gone, but the feel-good factor | :25:34. | :25:40. | |
certainly hasn't. Andy Murray, Wimbledon champion, how good does | :25:40. | :25:47. | |
that sound? Very good, very proud of him. It was 77 years on the 7th of | :25:47. | :25:53. | |
July in the seven months so it seems to have come together. It was great | :25:53. | :25:57. | |
to see the reactions, everybody putting it up on Facebook, the | :25:57. | :26:03. | |
videos of them watching it. The sheer excitement swept across Tom it | :26:03. | :26:09. | |
was lovely. It was great to see the nation coming together again this | :26:09. | :26:14. | |
year. After last year 's glorious Olympics and Paralympics where | :26:14. | :26:19. | |
Murray himself was among the champions, these are heady days of | :26:19. | :26:23. | |
the sport. Some even believe the national identity is being | :26:23. | :26:28. | |
redefined. His win was really important on building on the | :26:28. | :26:34. | |
Olympics. We have become a nation of expecting our athletes from being | :26:34. | :26:38. | |
merely meant to expecting them to win and that is passing over to the | :26:38. | :26:43. | |
athletes themselves. This British victory is also a Scottish one, and | :26:43. | :26:51. | |
in Dunblane and the pride was clear to see. I can't believe he did it in | :26:51. | :26:54. | |
straight sets, especially against Novak Djokovic, the number one | :26:54. | :26:59. | |
player in the world. Rarely has a tennis player given quite such joy | :26:59. | :27:08. | |
to quite so many. Andy Murray's delight, it seems, is also | :27:08. | :27:12. | |
delight, it seems, is also Britain's. | :27:12. | :27:16. | |
The sunshine definitely helps and in Scotland it has been the hottest day | :27:16. | :27:19. | |
of the year so far. It hasn't been the case everywhere, we have had | :27:19. | :27:28. | |
some stubborn cloud around the Wash. Almost overnight tonight it | :27:28. | :27:35. | |
stays and dry. We will see the return of low cloud drifting in from | :27:35. | :27:39. | |
the North Sea, perhaps becoming quite extensive, and more cloud | :27:39. | :27:44. | |
across northern Scotland as well. Tomorrow morning at eight o'clock, | :27:44. | :27:49. | |
temperatures already sitting at 19 degrees across south-west England. | :27:49. | :27:54. | |
Some sunshine right the way along the coast to Kent and Sussex. More | :27:54. | :27:58. | |
overcast through the east Midlands, and we will see some patchy cloud | :27:58. | :28:06. | |
developing the parts of northern Scotland as well. Here we will see | :28:06. | :28:10. | |
some rain. As we go through the morning, we have that cloud and | :28:10. | :28:17. | |
patchy rain still flirting with northern Scotland, but we are more | :28:17. | :28:22. | |
hopeful that cloud will move away, helping to lift the temperatures. It | :28:22. | :28:27. | |
will be another hot day, up to 27 degrees. Perhaps not quite as warm | :28:27. | :28:33. | |
along the coast of East Anglia, and in northern Scotland underneath that | :28:33. | :28:39. | |
weather front at 16 degrees. This cold front is moving its way south, | :28:39. | :28:42. | |
not bringing much rain but staying fairly cloudy, and temperatures will | :28:42. | :28:49. | |
be tailing off underneath those cloudy skies. Temperatures will be | :28:49. | :28:55. |
