Islamist extremists seize another town in Iraq as new evidence

:00:00.:00:10.

emerges of more atrocities. Unverified pictures appear to show

:00:11.:00:13.

ISIS gunmen carrying out a summary execution on an Iraqi soldier.

:00:14.:00:18.

America sends an aircraft carrier to the Gulf and says it will consider

:00:19.:00:21.

working with its age-old enemy, Iran, to combat the growing threat.

:00:22.:00:24.

Here, the Government says the conflict in the region is the number

:00:25.:00:35.

one security threat facing Britain. Six months after his skiing

:00:36.:00:38.

accident, the former racing champion Michael Schumacher is out of a coma

:00:39.:00:42.

and out of intensive care. A new law makes forcing someone

:00:43.:00:45.

into marriage in England and Wales a criminal offence.

:00:46.:00:48.

The Archbishop of Canterbury joins with the Pope to

:00:49.:00:51.

stop people trafficking, and urges the UK to accept more immigrants.

:00:52.:00:56.

And England back in training for the first time since defeat against

:00:57.:00:57.

Italy, and looking ahead to Uruguay. A Green Party politician demands

:00:58.:01:09.

answers from the Met, and will London cash in as visa rules for the

:01:10.:01:12.

Chinese continues to be relaxed? Good evening and welcome to the

:01:13.:01:31.

BBC News at Six. Tonight the crisis in Iraq has

:01:32.:01:40.

taken another sinister turn. Disturbing new pictures have emerged

:01:41.:01:43.

which again appear to show Islamist extremists from

:01:44.:01:45.

the ISIS group killing on camera. The images can't be independently

:01:46.:01:50.

verified, but they appear to show an Iraqi soldier being subjected to

:01:51.:01:52.

a summary execution. In a move that would have been

:01:53.:01:55.

previously unthinkable, America has signalled it might be willing

:01:56.:01:58.

to work with its old foe, Iran, on confronting the new threat, which

:01:59.:02:01.

grew again today as ISIS took over another town, Tal Afar,

:02:02.:02:03.

after seizing Mosul and Tikrit in recent days.

:02:04.:02:19.

ISIS is continuing its reign of terror in northern Iraq. It has

:02:20.:02:24.

already boasted of executing hundreds of Iraqi troops. These

:02:25.:02:29.

latest images appear to show more being interrogated after their

:02:30.:02:33.

capture. One is told to state that ISIS is in control. We can't

:02:34.:02:37.

independently verify the pictures, nor can we show the images that

:02:38.:02:46.

follow when he refuses and is shot. The Iraqi military say they are now

:02:47.:02:49.

taking the fight to ISIS. Today the Ministry of Defence released more

:02:50.:02:54.

video of ago, on enemy positions. They deny they are losing, even

:02:55.:02:59.

though ISIS has captured another town in the north. There's been a

:03:00.:03:03.

lot of false information about the number of soldiers and volunteers

:03:04.:03:09.

killed by ISIS. He says. These reports have been denied by military

:03:10.:03:15.

command and I am denying them too. In Baghdad, Shia militia are still

:03:16.:03:19.

responding to their religious leader's call to arms. They want

:03:20.:03:26.

revenge on the Sunni extremists. Tensions were already high in parts

:03:27.:03:30.

of the city. We filmed the barriers that have separated the Sunni

:03:31.:03:34.

community since the fall of Saddam Hussein, the military watch towers

:03:35.:03:39.

to check whos in and leaves. Life in Baghdad is getting harder. Prices

:03:40.:03:44.

for some items have already tripled. One of the ironies of the current

:03:45.:03:48.

crisis is though Iraq is a country rich in oil and gas, queues are

:03:49.:03:53.

forming for propane gas. Some of the people here have been waiting for

:03:54.:03:58.

ten hours to fill their propane canisters in the blazing sun. This

:03:59.:04:01.

old woman complained about the wait and the rising price us. Some in the

:04:02.:04:06.

queue blamed ISIS, but one man told me it was the Government that's

:04:07.:04:11.

failed. The gas station manager tried to stop us filming but

:04:12.:04:16.

suddenly changed his mind when fresh deliveries arrived. Help may have

:04:17.:04:23.

arrived in the shape of a US carrier loaded with warplanes now positioned

:04:24.:04:27.

in the Gulf. Tonight it was joined by another American warship. The US

:04:28.:04:32.

embassy in Baghdad has been reinforced. It points to the US

:04:33.:04:37.

edging towards a decision. When you have people murdering,

:04:38.:04:43.

assassinating, in these mass massacres you have to stop that and

:04:44.:04:49.

you need to do what you need to do, from the air or otherwise. These

:04:50.:04:56.

discarded Iraqi uniforms tell us of a Government not prepared for the

:04:57.:04:58.

threat from ISIS. a Government not prepared for the

:04:59.:05:05.

Iraq can't defeat ISIS on its own. We can talk now to Nick Robinson at

:05:06.:05:10.

Iraq can't defeat ISIS on its own. Westminster and Nick Bryant in

:05:11.:05:13.

Washington. A America is considering working with Iran Iran to combat the

:05:14.:05:18.

threat from Iraq, this would have been inconceivable until recently?

:05:19.:05:22.

You are right, Fiona. For America to consider acting with Iran militarily

:05:23.:05:27.

is not (Inaudible) it is the coalition of the the unthinkable.

:05:28.:05:31.

But John Kerry, the US Secretary of State, offered heavy qualifiers to

:05:32.:05:36.

his remarks. He said this was a step by step process. It would begin with

:05:37.:05:41.

talks with Iran, possibly, probably on the sidelines of the nuclear

:05:42.:05:44.

talks that are going on in Vienna at this time. I think what America

:05:45.:05:50.

wants from Iran right now isn't military co-operation, but political

:05:51.:05:53.

co-operation. It wants it to exert its influence on the Government of

:05:54.:05:59.

Prime Minister Maliki, to have an inclusive Iraqi Government not

:06:00.:06:03.

dominated by the Shi'ite population but includes the Sunnis and Kurds as

:06:04.:06:07.

well. That's what America is looking for and it is making that, political

:06:08.:06:11.

reform in Baghdad, a precondition of any military action it will take.

:06:12.:06:16.

Nick Robinson in Westminster, the Foreign Secretary, William Hague,

:06:17.:06:19.

saying he believed there could be as many as 400 people linked to the UK

:06:20.:06:24.

fighting in Iraq and Syria now. This is the highest number we've had so

:06:25.:06:28.

far. How worried is he about this? They are worried enough because they

:06:29.:06:31.

are trying to answer the question that is being asked I suspect in

:06:32.:06:35.

many homes up and down the country. This looks bad in Iraq, but what an

:06:36.:06:39.

earth has it got to do with us? Nick Clegg, the Deputy Prime Minister,

:06:40.:06:43.

said it was the number one security concern. Ministers were ard of at

:06:44.:06:46.

the moment. He said that was because there was a direct threat to British

:06:47.:06:51.

citizens coming from those 400 fighters in Syria, in Iraq, who

:06:52.:06:56.

might come home with the same ideology, with the same hatred, with

:06:57.:07:02.

the same tactics. The British Government made clear today there

:07:03.:07:08.

will not be boots on the ground or any military involvement. But Nick

:07:09.:07:12.

Clegg made he and the Liberal Democrats, the coalition as a whole,

:07:13.:07:16.

wouldn't get in America's way for what he called properly targeted

:07:17.:07:20.

action. One last sign of the rapid change brought about, Britain, too,

:07:21.:07:23.

is going to change its diplomatic stand to Iran. We are expecting a

:07:24.:07:28.

statement from the Foreign Secretary tomorrow for the beginning of the

:07:29.:07:32.

restoration of the process of having links between London and Tehran.

:07:33.:07:41.

Thank you. The seven times Formula One champion

:07:42.:07:43.

Michael Schumacher is out of a coma and out of the intensive care unit

:07:44.:07:48.

where he's been treated since suffering severe head injuries last

:07:49.:07:53.

December. He's now been moved to a hospital in Switzerland near his

:07:54.:07:58.

home. Michael Schumacher, as relaxed and

:07:59.:08:02.

comfortable on skis as he often appeared behind the wheel. But in

:08:03.:08:08.

Meribel in December at a much slower speed he crashed into a rock. For

:08:09.:08:13.

six months he's battled massive brain injuries at this hospital in

:08:14.:08:17.

Grenoble. Twice they operated. Today more positive news from the driver's

:08:18.:08:23.

manager. Michael has left Grenoble, she said, to continue his long phase

:08:24.:08:27.

of rehabilitation. He is not in a coma any more.

:08:28.:08:32.

And amid thanks to doctors, she mentioned the first responders who

:08:33.:08:36.

saved his life. This year I skied the area between the two pistes

:08:37.:08:41.

where Michael Schumacher had fallen. It is not steep but there are

:08:42.:08:46.

(Inaudible) and in December only a thin covering of snow. On impact the

:08:47.:08:52.

helmet shattered. He was bleeding profusely. Help arrived just four

:08:53.:08:58.

minutes later but he was already in trouble. Even as the helicopter was

:08:59.:09:04.

flying down the valley, Michael Schumacher was unconscious. In

:09:05.:09:08.

Grenoble a surgical team was on standby. They knew that with every

:09:09.:09:13.

passing minute the pleading in the Britain and the pressure inside the

:09:14.:09:16.

skull could make a bad situation even worse. It is not clear just how

:09:17.:09:21.

far Michael Schumacher has come since January, but neurosurgeons say

:09:22.:09:25.

even in the most severe cases they treat, recovery can be remarkable.

:09:26.:09:34.

One connection because there is a lesion there, sometimes you can use

:09:35.:09:40.

a narrow circuit to do the same thing, even the circuit which was

:09:41.:09:45.

initially not for doing. This You retrain the brain? Yes. But that is

:09:46.:09:52.

a long process? Absolutely. The optimism that Ferrari and everyone

:09:53.:09:56.

connected to Formula One will want to share. He is a very nice person

:09:57.:10:00.

and now with the news he's been moved to another hospital, we just

:10:01.:10:04.

have to hope that it is all for the best. The new hospital is in

:10:05.:10:09.

Lausanne, closer to his wife, who can visit more easily. It could be

:10:10.:10:12.

months or possibly years of treatment still ahead.

:10:13.:10:18.

From today forcing someone to marry becomes a criminal offence in

:10:19.:10:22.

England and Wales. Anyone found guilty could face a jail term of up

:10:23.:10:26.

to seven years. The law also applies to people who send people abroad to

:10:27.:10:30.

get married against their will. Around 8,000 young people in Britain

:10:31.:10:37.

are coerced into marriages each year by their families. It has been

:10:38.:10:41.

called an appalling abuse of human rights. Every year thousands of

:10:42.:10:44.

women, men and children from different cultures are forced to

:10:45.:10:47.

marry, often pressured by their families into a life of submission,

:10:48.:10:54.

seems violence. This woman whose identity we've protected for legal

:10:55.:10:57.

reasons was promised to a man she had never met when she was 12 and

:10:58.:11:02.

married at 16. Not wanting to shame her family, she stayed in an unhappy

:11:03.:11:06.

relationship for 14 years. I stopped dreaming at the age of 12. My life

:11:07.:11:09.

was all planned and sorted. relationship for 14 years. I stopped

:11:10.:11:13.

dreaming at I believed my parents knew what was best for me. No human

:11:14.:11:18.

being should be put in a situation where another, where their lifer is

:11:19.:11:23.

at risk or somebody else is rule their life. It's your life.

:11:24.:11:27.

Currently those who are threatened with forced marriage can seek

:11:28.:11:31.

protection orders from the civil courts. They'll still be able to do

:11:32.:11:34.

that, but from today in England and Wales, breaching these orders will

:11:35.:11:38.

be a criminal offence, with a maximum five-year sentence. There's

:11:39.:11:42.

also a new crime of forcing someone to marry against their will, which

:11:43.:11:47.

carries a jail term of up to seven years. At this refuge for young

:11:48.:11:51.

mothers fleeing forced marriage it is hoped it will help them

:11:52.:11:54.

understand that they are victims. A lot of them feel as though they've

:11:55.:12:00.

let society down, their culture down, that they've got no respect

:12:01.:12:05.

for themselves. A lot of them feel as though they have done wrong. The

:12:06.:12:09.

Government's forced marriage team helped shape the law, which gives

:12:10.:12:12.

police the power to trace those who take victims abroad. This unit dealt

:12:13.:12:17.

with 1,300 cases of possible forced marriage last year in the UK and

:12:18.:12:21.

overseas. Here it is hoped the new criminal law will act as a deterrent

:12:22.:12:26.

to perpetrators. But there are some with concerns. Some charities say it

:12:27.:12:30.

could stop victims coming forward. A lot of work needs to be done making

:12:31.:12:35.

it clear that civil remedies are available. My worry if is if they

:12:36.:12:39.

think at crime, they might be too scared to tell parents or relatives.

:12:40.:12:43.

Some believe education, not the law, is key. But those who backed the

:12:44.:12:48.

legislation say it is another tool to help future generations speak out

:12:49.:12:54.

against what is now a crime. The Scottish Government has laid out

:12:55.:12:57.

how a new constitution will be set up in the event of a "yes" vote in

:12:58.:13:03.

the independence referendum in assessment the Deputy First

:13:04.:13:09.

Minister, Sturgeon surges said if Scotland -- Nicola Sturgeon, said if

:13:10.:13:13.

Scotland left the UK it would be nuclear-free. An independent

:13:14.:13:18.

Scotland would break with a much-revered British tradition of an

:13:19.:13:22.

unwritten constitution and like the United States and republican France

:13:23.:13:29.

build its new state on a codified single doubt. Most countries have a

:13:30.:13:36.

constitution. Scotland, is SNP says, will include

:13:37.:13:42.

a constitutional ban on nuclear weapons, requiring a move of the

:13:43.:13:49.

submarines from the Clyde. A written constitution provides certainty and

:13:50.:13:51.

security for the citizens of any state. It defines and constrains

:13:52.:13:57.

organs of the state. It describes where powers lie and how those who

:13:58.:14:00.

wield powers are chosen and scrutinised. As is well no-one, that

:14:01.:14:06.

is not always clear in the UK. Much of this has popular appeal, so the

:14:07.:14:11.

leaders of the three pro-union parties in you knighted front today

:14:12.:14:14.

have to respond. For the opinion polls which have given them a clear

:14:15.:14:20.

lead for weeks show the yes campaign closing the gap again. The challenge

:14:21.:14:25.

for Better Together is to stop the traditional flow of Labour voters

:14:26.:14:29.

crossing to the pro-independence camp. That's why it is a risk for

:14:30.:14:33.

the Labour leader in Scotland to share a platform with the

:14:34.:14:36.

Conservative Party, which remains deeply unpopular here. All three now

:14:37.:14:41.

say they'll strengthen the powers of the Scottish Parliament after the

:14:42.:14:46.

next UK general election. For Scottish Labour standing shoulder to

:14:47.:14:49.

shoulder with the Conservatives nodding in agreement is a risk worth

:14:50.:14:53.

taking. The choice isn't between Scotland and the Tories or Scotland

:14:54.:14:57.

and England. That's a hugely important debate about Scotland's

:14:58.:15:01.

future, so I won't stand asides from those who greed with me and pretend

:15:02.:15:04.

we don't agreement we can agree those who greed with me and pretend

:15:05.:15:10.

build a consensus. The pro-union parties say they'll bring the change

:15:11.:15:16.

Scotland wants. The SNP say only a written constitution in an

:15:17.:15:17.

independent state can guarantee it. Our top

:15:18.:15:28.

town in Iraq as more video emerges which appears to show ISIS gunmen

:15:29.:15:31.

mistreating captured soldiers. And still to come.

:15:32.:15:37.

Kate and Gerry McCann talk of their frustration over a libel case in

:15:38.:15:40.

Portugal. Could property prices in parts of

:15:41.:15:44.

the capital have reached their peak? And, the champion racehorse that

:15:45.:15:48.

a cooling in the housing market. And, the champion racehorse that

:15:49.:15:58.

More than five years tonight.

:15:59.:16:02.

More than five years after the banking crisis sent the UK

:16:03.:16:06.

economy and the pound tumbling in value, there are signs sterling

:16:07.:16:09.

is slowly clawing its way back. Today, it hit a level not seen

:16:10.:16:12.

since the height of the banking crisis, with the pound worth $1.70

:16:13.:16:17.

on the currency-exchange markets. But although that can be an

:16:18.:16:20.

indicator of a healthier economy, it's not always helpful for

:16:21.:16:21.

businesses trying to sell abroad. The last time a British pound bought

:16:22.:16:37.

$1.70 was in 2008, when written's banks were almost bust. Stirling

:16:38.:16:45.

plummeted to $1 36 the next January, and since then it has been a long,

:16:46.:16:52.

meandering clime. One reason why it has strengthened its because the

:16:53.:16:55.

Canadian who works here, the governor of the Bank of England, has

:16:56.:16:59.

said the interest rates may rise fairly soon, and one of those credit

:17:00.:17:05.

rating agencies, which became notorious during the crisis, has

:17:06.:17:11.

said the UK's triple-A rating is not in danger of being taken away. All

:17:12.:17:15.

of which means, if you are looking for a bit of return in a safe place,

:17:16.:17:23.

the UK looks a pretty good bet. We have seen a lot of positive economic

:17:24.:17:27.

data from the UK, unemployment has dropped, employment -- production

:17:28.:17:33.

has boosted, and investors want to get in on the act. Opening the door

:17:34.:17:39.

to foreigners in the UK's great tourist destinations has tended to

:17:40.:17:44.

require a weak pound sterling. You can see the water is coming directly

:17:45.:17:49.

out of the ground. This is from deep down in the earth? Three kilometres.

:17:50.:17:55.

Is this owner of an historic spa sweating? Where the risks lie that

:17:56.:18:07.

because of the strength of the ? UK residents may take their holidays

:18:08.:18:12.

overseas, and overseas residents may be put off coming to the UK, because

:18:13.:18:18.

their currency may not be able to buy quite as much in the future. But

:18:19.:18:22.

at this moment, nothing too detrimental. The strengthening of

:18:23.:18:27.

the pound sterling means British exports become pricier, putting the

:18:28.:18:32.

squeeze on exporters, like this engineer of stadiums and other

:18:33.:18:36.

projects. A 10% shift the wrong way for us towards the dollar means we

:18:37.:18:41.

are more expensive in the eyes of our customers, that we are a strong

:18:42.:18:48.

band -- brand, so we are always in demand. We can cope with it to a

:18:49.:18:52.

degree, but you cannot do that forever. All is green, pleasant and

:18:53.:18:58.

growing, but if there is the odd cloud, a further rise in price

:18:59.:19:02.

exporters out of important overseas markets.

:19:03.:19:05.

In Kenya, at least 48 people have been killed in attacks on hotels

:19:06.:19:09.

and a police station near a popular tourist resort.

:19:10.:19:11.

The Islamist militant group al-Shabab, from neighbouring

:19:12.:19:14.

Somalia, have said they carried out the attack on the town of Mpeketoni,

:19:15.:19:16.

just 30 miles from Lamu. This is what remained of the police

:19:17.:19:32.

station, the scene of the first attack. More than 30 men raided,

:19:33.:19:36.

court officers off guard and the gun battle lasted over three hours. The

:19:37.:19:40.

attackers were well armed and organised. While the attack was

:19:41.:19:46.

coming on and keeping the officers busy, another group of gunmen was in

:19:47.:19:52.

town, burning whatever they could find and shooting at people. We

:19:53.:19:57.

understand that gunmen went into people's homes, and they put tests

:19:58.:20:04.

to the mend their about the Conran and the Somali language. This man

:20:05.:20:14.

witnessed the attack. In that conversation, he said, can you say

:20:15.:20:27.

some praise -- prayers? He did. Unfortunately, a motorist was

:20:28.:20:32.

called, he came closer and he was shot. The al-Shabab militants

:20:33.:20:37.

claimed responsibility, they said it is retaliation for killing off

:20:38.:20:40.

radical sheiks in Mombasa. The Archbishop of Canterbury Justin

:20:41.:20:46.

Welby says the Government must be willing to accept immigrants who've

:20:47.:20:49.

been trafficked into the UK, rather than have them deported.

:20:50.:20:52.

He was speaking to BBC News after meeting Pope Francis in the Vatican,

:20:53.:20:55.

when the two men committed their churches to act together against

:20:56.:20:57.

human trafficking and slavery. There is some flash photography in

:20:58.:21:07.

this report. Joining hands in the fight against

:21:08.:21:11.

slavery, a warm personal relationship between the Pope and

:21:12.:21:15.

the Archbishop. It has inspired a daring project they have called the

:21:16.:21:21.

global Freedom network. They want multinationals to eradicate slave

:21:22.:21:27.

labour from their supply chains. Pope Francis said traffic and an

:21:28.:21:30.

slavery were intolerable crimes against human dignity. The Pope said

:21:31.:21:37.

he and the Archbishop had shared their horror of trafficking and were

:21:38.:21:40.

determined to work together to prevent people becoming slaves and

:21:41.:21:45.

to rescue those who were. Pope Francis said it was a scandal that

:21:46.:21:50.

theological differences between the churches had been allowed to

:21:51.:21:52.

obstruct such cooperation in the past. The two churches have spent

:21:53.:22:00.

centuries discussing their religious differences. Now, for the first time

:22:01.:22:04.

since the Reformation, they are uniting to fight what they call a

:22:05.:22:08.

crime against him and a team. They are taking a risk, but they say the

:22:09.:22:12.

alternative is tolerating cruelty and violence of modern slavery.

:22:13.:22:18.

Justin Welby visited the Anglican church in Rome and its multinational

:22:19.:22:26.

congregation. The Roman Catholic and Anglican churches are a powerful

:22:27.:22:30.

force in many of the African and Asian countries where slavery is at

:22:31.:22:37.

its worst. This man was sold into seven years of forced labour in

:22:38.:22:41.

Ghana, working for fishermen for 15 hours of day. Any time I was caught

:22:42.:22:50.

running away, I had to be subject to it to excruciating work. The

:22:51.:22:58.

Archbishop said the UK must be ready to take more immigrants in the cause

:22:59.:23:03.

of combating modern slavery. In the course of tackling slavery and

:23:04.:23:08.

trafficking, we have to draw on our roots in Europe of compassion and we

:23:09.:23:15.

have to be willing to accept people where to send them back put them

:23:16.:23:18.

back into the hands of the traffickers. He

:23:19.:23:20.

back into the hands of the praying with the Pope. He called on

:23:21.:23:25.

people to ensure that what they consumed was free of slave labour,

:23:26.:23:29.

otherwise they would be colluding in terrible suffering.

:23:30.:23:31.

The parents of Madeleine McCann have spoken of their pain

:23:32.:23:35.

and distress after their libel trial against a former Portuguese police

:23:36.:23:39.

chief was suddenly adjourned today. Kate

:23:40.:23:41.

and Gerry McCann had travelled to Lisbon to give statements in court.

:23:42.:23:43.

They're suing Goncalo Amaral for claims made in

:23:44.:23:46.

his book that they hid Madeleine's body after she died in an accident.

:23:47.:23:55.

This was supposed to be their day in court. Madelyn's parents returned to

:23:56.:24:04.

the country where she vanished to tell the judge about the pain they

:24:05.:24:05.

have suffered. They had come back to tell the judge about the pain they

:24:06.:24:11.

Lisbon to describe the impact his controversial book has had on their

:24:12.:24:16.

life. It is a bestseller in Portugal, written by a former police

:24:17.:24:20.

chief who investigated the disappearance of Madeleine McCann

:24:21.:24:23.

seven years ago. The book suggests she died in the family's holiday

:24:24.:24:29.

apartment that night and there was then a faked ab duction to cover up

:24:30.:24:34.

what had happened. Allegations the couple vehemently deny. They are

:24:35.:24:41.

suing the former police chief for libel. But today, at the last

:24:42.:24:46.

moment, he removed his lawyer from the case. We are exasperated that

:24:47.:24:51.

the hearing has been cancelled again. After already spending five

:24:52.:24:56.

years on this, they now face another delay. Today is a blatant and

:24:57.:25:04.

cynical attempt to wear us down. It is our daughter who is suffering. We

:25:05.:25:10.

will keep going. Thank you. Can I just add, we need to make it clear

:25:11.:25:15.

to people, we took on this case because of the pain and distress

:25:16.:25:21.

that he has brought to us and our children, and every time he

:25:22.:25:24.

postpones it like this, it brings us more pain and distress. The couple

:25:25.:25:29.

said they were encouraged that major searches have taken place in Praia

:25:30.:25:34.

da Luz this month and that several suspects are due to be questioned.

:25:35.:25:40.

Meanwhile, they will return to Portugal in July to continue their

:25:41.:25:41.

fight for damages. England's footballers returned to

:25:42.:25:49.

training this afternoon for the first time

:25:50.:25:52.

since their defeat in their opening World Cup match against Italy.

:25:53.:25:53.

The team is back in Rio de Janeiro. It may look like a luxury holiday

:25:54.:26:06.

resort, but here at the training camp, England are working very

:26:07.:26:10.

hard, because after their defeat to Italy, the stakes could not be

:26:11.:26:16.

higher. Lose to you required in Sao Paulo on Thursday, it could been an

:26:17.:26:21.

abrupt end to their adventure. If Italy and Costa Rica then draw, that

:26:22.:26:26.

would be it, but when, they could be on course for qualification. Despite

:26:27.:26:31.

this, there is still a positive feeling around the camp but --

:26:32.:26:38.

because of the performance against Italy. As Daniel Sturridge explained

:26:39.:26:43.

earlier, the squad are still up date.

:26:44.:26:48.

We take the positives out of the game, we look forward to the next

:26:49.:26:53.

game. I am hungry to play, everybody wants to play and wants to show what

:26:54.:26:59.

they can do. It is a big occasion for us in our careers. Some people

:27:00.:27:05.

will only get one World Cup to play in, you do not want to be going home

:27:06.:27:09.

early from performing well but not getting results.

:27:10.:27:15.

The squad feeling of eight, but an all too familiar dilemma, had to get

:27:16.:27:20.

the best out of their marquee player, Wayne Rooney. The squad

:27:21.:27:24.

trained here at their base earlier today. Wayne Rooney had an

:27:25.:27:30.

interesting game at the weekend, he set up the goal but he looked

:27:31.:27:35.

isolated, and one of the big questions that Roy Hodgson has to

:27:36.:27:38.

deal with is how to deal with him on Thursday.

:27:39.:27:45.

It is glorious for some of us back home. This afternoon, underneath the

:27:46.:27:55.

cloud cover, 14 degrees. In contrast, 25 across the central belt

:27:56.:28:01.

of Scotland. If you want warmth, the chart is turning orange tomorrow for

:28:02.:28:05.

nearly all of us, it will be a warm day. We are not there yet, it is a

:28:06.:28:10.

cloudy evening across eastern England. That will continue for much

:28:11.:28:15.

of the night. It will turn damp for northern Scotland. Otherwise, a

:28:16.:28:21.

nondescript night. No great dramas with the temperatures. It will be a

:28:22.:28:26.

cloudy start across southern and eastern areas, but the sun will

:28:27.:28:31.

break through, turning increasingly bright and sunny across much of

:28:32.:28:35.

southern and central England. A lovely day to come. Blue skies will

:28:36.:28:41.

prevail at a Scot, it will feel very comfortable. That summer races the

:28:42.:28:46.

weather across much of southern England, it is called along the

:28:47.:28:54.

North Sea coast. A Ariz of BC. Cloudier the further north you go,

:28:55.:28:59.

but there will be holes in the cloud. Despite more cloud, Scotland

:29:00.:29:08.

is still quite humid. A few showers breaking out across the borders of

:29:09.:29:13.

Scotland. A little cluster moving down through the spine of England,

:29:14.:29:17.

the odd heavy burst and rumble of thunder on Wednesday morning.

:29:18.:29:22.

Wednesday is different, more cloud, the odd shower, hopefully some

:29:23.:29:30.

brightness. Through the rest of the week, lots of dry weather to come,

:29:31.:29:31.

just the odd shower. A reminder of our main story.

:29:32.:29:38.

Islamist extremists seize another town in Iraq as more video emerges

:29:39.:29:41.

which appears to show ISIS gunmen mistreating captured soldiers.

:29:42.:29:44.

That's all from the BBC News at Six, so it's goodbye from me,

:29:45.:29:47.

and on BBC One we now join the BBC's

:29:48.:29:49.
