The British Islamic State militant notorious | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
for beheading western hostages is believed to have been killed. | :00:07. | :00:11. | |
Known as Jihadi John, it's claimed he almost certainly | :00:12. | :00:16. | |
died in a US airstrike with close co-operation from UK intelligence. | :00:17. | :00:19. | |
He posed an ongoing and serious threat to innocent civilians, not | :00:20. | :00:22. | |
Some of the relatives of his victims have greeted news of | :00:23. | :00:31. | |
his likely death with mixed feelings of relief and renewed sorrow. | :00:32. | :00:37. | |
In the last few minutes there are reports that Abe Ritt -ish fellow | :00:38. | :00:43. | |

trying to pin down his location. Verifying | :04:06. | :04:08. | |
his death has been taking time. We are reasonably certain that | :04:09. | :04:09. | |
we killed the target that we It will take some time as it always | :04:10. | :04:20. | |
does for us to formally declare success. | :04:21. | :04:22. | |
Elsewhere in the region a Kurdish offensive has begun pushing | :04:23. | :04:29. | |
Islamic State forces out of the town of Sinjar, | :04:30. | :04:32. | |
Mohammed Emwazi was never a front-line soldier. | :04:33. | :04:36. | |
Now, if this former London student's death is confirmed, there | :04:37. | :04:40. | |
will be some who will regret that he can never be brought to trial. | :04:41. | :04:45. | |
Today families of some of the victims of Mohammed Emwazi gave | :04:46. | :04:48. | |
The daughter of David Haines spoke of an 'instant sense of relief' | :04:49. | :04:52. | |
Others described the development as 'too little too late'. | :04:53. | :04:59. | |
Here's our Special Correspondent Lucy Manning. | :05:00. | :05:04. | |
They were Britons who had gone to Syria to help, unlike Mohammed | :05:05. | :05:07. | |
Alan Henning and David Haines were aid workers, but not even their | :05:08. | :05:13. | |
The daughter of David Haines said today: | :05:14. | :05:36. | |
Travelling on the aid convoy to Syria with | :05:37. | :05:52. | |
Alan Henning two years ago when he was captured was Majid Freeman. | :05:53. | :05:58. | |
Really and truly they should have gone down on the ground. | :05:59. | :06:00. | |
They should have tried him as a war criminal. | :06:01. | :06:08. | |
By killing him in a drone strike, he is going to be seen by | :06:09. | :06:12. | |
And the impact of Hallen Alan Henning's murder does not diminish | :06:13. | :06:15. | |
as his daughter made clear in an interview recorded just before | :06:16. | :06:18. | |
I just try and get everybody to remember, like, | :06:19. | :06:30. | |
When people say, you have lost your dad. | :06:31. | :06:37. | |
Yeah, I know, but there are kids over there who lost loads | :06:38. | :06:41. | |
of other family in one day and they are stuck there on their own. | :06:42. | :06:44. | |
In America the family of murdered journalist James Foley he said | :06:45. | :06:47. | |
It is just so sad that our precious resources have been, | :06:48. | :06:55. | |
you know, concentrated to seek revenge, | :06:56. | :06:57. | |
When if a bit of them had been utilised to save | :06:58. | :07:05. | |
The teenage Emwazi, at school here in North London, | :07:06. | :07:20. | |
was described as a quiet, reasonably hard-working pupil. | :07:21. | :07:22. | |
Yet he went on to become one of the world's most wanted men. | :07:23. | :07:24. | |
From this ordinary background, radicalised, | :07:25. | :07:26. | |
still no one is sure how, to the masked executioner in Syria. | :07:27. | :07:29. | |
He moved to the UK from Kuwait when he was six. | :07:30. | :07:32. | |
And after school went to the University of Westminster. | :07:33. | :07:36. | |
In 2009 he was deported from Tanzania and questioned by MI5. | :07:37. | :07:41. | |
But two years ago he travelled to Syria and appeared on videos | :07:42. | :07:44. | |
He was named as Mohammed Emwazi by the BBC this year. | :07:45. | :07:52. | |
This, his real voice, recorded some years ago complaining | :07:53. | :07:54. | |
They are still suggesting that I am an extremist. | :07:55. | :08:02. | |
And he just started going on, trying to put words | :08:03. | :08:05. | |
into my mouth saying, no, you are doing this, this, and this. | :08:06. | :08:08. | |
And we are going to keep a close eye on you, Mohammed. | :08:09. | :08:11. | |
From a young schoolboy to a sadistic killer, for his victims' families, | :08:12. | :08:16. | |
Let's talk to our North America editor Jon Sopel who's in Washington | :08:17. | :08:28. | |
Canellas queue about the breaking news that an associate of his has | :08:29. | :08:39. | |
been captured in Turkey? This is a British-born militant who converted | :08:40. | :08:44. | |
to Islam. Leslie Davis. He was reported to be someone who had been | :08:45. | :08:50. | |
tasked with guarding foreign prisoners in Syria. And therefore a | :08:51. | :08:56. | |
close associate of the man people referred to as Jihadi John. Turkish | :08:57. | :09:00. | |
sources have confirmed his arrest but we don't know whether it was | :09:01. | :09:04. | |
coincidental to the killing of Emwazi or whether it was part of a | :09:05. | :09:11. | |
wider operation. Let's talk about Mohammed Emwazi or Jihadi John. How | :09:12. | :09:16. | |
significant a target was he for US intelligence? As a battlefield | :09:17. | :09:19. | |
commander he was irrelevant but as the public face, the recruiting | :09:20. | :09:26. | |
Sergeant, he was massively important. Arguably his appearance | :09:27. | :09:33. | |
in those grotesque videos where we saw Steven Sotloff and James Foley | :09:34. | :09:36. | |
murdered at what changed American policy towards Islamic State. The | :09:37. | :09:40. | |
other thing that is striking is how closely they had been monitoring him | :09:41. | :09:44. | |
for the past few days. We have also learned in the past short time that | :09:45. | :09:50. | |
the British drone was also involved. There were three drones, an American | :09:51. | :09:54. | |
drone that fired but the British were also involved. Iraq Obama said | :09:55. | :10:00. | |
a year ago that the mission was to degrade and destroy Islamic State, | :10:01. | :10:04. | |
destroy, not yet, but the degradation seems to be underway. | :10:05. | :10:07. | |
Thank you. The step brother of the Bristol | :10:08. | :10:10. | |
schoolgirl Becky Watts has been jailed for a minimum of 33 years | :10:11. | :10:12. | |
for her kidnap and murder. His girlfriend, | :10:13. | :10:16. | |
Shauna Hoare will serve 17 The judge in | :10:17. | :10:18. | |
the case was reduced to tears as he paid tribute to Becky's family for | :10:19. | :10:23. | |
their dignity throughout the trial. Jon Kay is at Bristol Crown Court - | :10:24. | :10:26. | |
desperately sad case but even so, very unusual to see such emotion | :10:27. | :10:29. | |
from a judge. Yes. Many tears have been shared in | :10:30. | :10:40. | |
this court over the past five weeks but it was the last five seconds of | :10:41. | :10:45. | |
the judges sentencing that where perhaps the most surprising. A | :10:46. | :10:49. | |
senior judge of many years standing, overcome with emotion after | :10:50. | :10:55. | |
everything he has seen and heard. After all of the chilling evidence | :10:56. | :10:59. | |
they have heard, the family of Becky Watts came to court hoping her | :11:00. | :11:04. | |
killers would get lengthy prison terms. Statements from her parents | :11:05. | :11:08. | |
were read to the judge. Describing what they described the unbearable | :11:09. | :11:14. | |
nightmare of the teenager's murder. Betty's man said that knowing Nathan | :11:15. | :11:17. | |
Matthews and Shauna Hoare dismembered her body after killing | :11:18. | :11:21. | |
her made it worse than a horror film. Nathan Matthews looked down at | :11:22. | :11:25. | |
the floor as the judge sentenced him to a minimum of 33 years in prison | :11:26. | :11:32. | |
for murder. Shauna Hoare showed no emotion as she was given 17 years | :11:33. | :11:38. | |
for manslaughter. As he paid tribute to the family, the judge suddenly | :11:39. | :11:44. | |
paused, his voice faltered and tears well then his eyes. At the end of | :11:45. | :11:49. | |
such a disturbing trial the judge seemed overwhelmed. You can imagine | :11:50. | :11:56. | |
that our emotions are faltered a. Betty's grandad said it had been | :11:57. | :11:59. | |
extraordinary to see the reaction from a senior judge. I don't know if | :12:00. | :12:05. | |
he is a family man himself but he moved everyone to tears, he has seen | :12:06. | :12:10. | |
many things during his life and he can actually have sympathy for our | :12:11. | :12:16. | |
family. As the sentences given to Matthews and Shauna Hoare, Betty's | :12:17. | :12:22. | |
family have mixed feelings. Your T-shirt says justice by Becky, do | :12:23. | :12:28. | |
you feel you have got that? Regarding Nathan, absolutely. I am | :12:29. | :12:33. | |
torn about Shauna because I don't think it was adequate but we have to | :12:34. | :12:38. | |
live with it now. The judge said that sentencing took into account | :12:39. | :12:42. | |
that they planned to kidnap Becky for a sexual purpose and that their | :12:43. | :12:45. | |
lies made things even worse for the family. They have never shown any | :12:46. | :12:51. | |
remorse for their grotesque actions. Today's sentences reflect | :12:52. | :12:55. | |
their refusal to take full responsibility for their callous | :12:56. | :13:02. | |
crimes. The couple were taken to separate prisons, Nathan Matthews | :13:03. | :13:05. | |
will be 61 before he is considered for parole. | :13:06. | :13:08. | |
World athletics chiefs are in talks right now to decide | :13:09. | :13:11. | |
whether Russia should be banned from all international competition | :13:12. | :13:13. | |
- including next year's Olympics in Rio. | :13:14. | :13:16. | |
The meeting - chaired by Lord Coe - follows a report this week | :13:17. | :13:24. | |
from the World Anti-doping Agency which accused Russia of widespread | :13:25. | :13:26. | |
state sponsored doping, and effectively sabotaging London 2012. | :13:27. | :13:33. | |
This report contains flash photography. | :13:34. | :13:37. | |
It has long been a sporting superpower but now we know that they | :13:38. | :13:45. | |
were cheats. Athletics is reeling | :13:46. | :13:46. | |
from the damning report that exposed rampant state-sponsored doping | :13:47. | :13:48. | |
in the country, and now it could be Tonight the sport's most powerful | :13:49. | :13:51. | |
man, Lord Coe, chairs a crisis meeting under intense pressure to | :13:52. | :13:54. | |
get tough and ban Russia. His credibility on the line, | :13:55. | :13:58. | |
as well as track and field's. Despite being a senior figure | :13:59. | :14:03. | |
at the IAAF for the last eight years, the President | :14:04. | :14:06. | |
claims to have been unaware of the alleged cover-ups that have | :14:07. | :14:08. | |
engulfed the governing body. I think it is a pretty disrespectful | :14:09. | :14:11. | |
thing to everyone else in athletics to believe that | :14:12. | :14:22. | |
a vice president did not know what That is his job | :14:23. | :14:25. | |
and he hasn't been doing it. If he believes he did not know | :14:26. | :14:29. | |
what was going on, the hasn't These Russian athletes in Sochi | :14:30. | :14:32. | |
already training for the next Olympics, but it is | :14:33. | :14:35. | |
a dream that is now in doubt. Everyone here denies using drugs, | :14:36. | :14:38. | |
and believes We need to fight doping, maybe, but | :14:39. | :14:51. | |
it does not mean that the whole team should suffer. I don't think all | :14:52. | :14:52. | |
athletes should be banned. President Vladimir Putin has | :14:53. | :14:57. | |
carefully avoided talk of a Western plot and has promised to cooperate | :14:58. | :15:05. | |
with the World Anti-doping Agency. But it may not be enough to avert | :15:06. | :15:07. | |
an unprecedented ban. If Russia is suspended, | :15:08. | :15:10. | |
its athletes may not be able to take part in international events | :15:11. | :15:13. | |
like the Diamond League, Competitions it's due to host | :15:14. | :15:15. | |
like next year's world race walking And any Russian IAAF officials | :15:16. | :15:22. | |
will have to stand aside. In Rio, preparations ahead | :15:23. | :15:31. | |
of next summer's Olympics continue. Robson De Silva is one of the host | :15:32. | :15:37. | |
country's most decorated athletes, so how are the reverberations | :15:38. | :15:40. | |
of sport's most serious doping If you made | :15:41. | :15:42. | |
a mistake you have to pay for it. The Russians, they made a mistake, | :15:43. | :15:47. | |
but, like I always say, you have to find out who is | :15:48. | :15:50. | |
responsible for all of that thing. This was one | :15:51. | :15:53. | |
of the gold medals a Russian doper won at London 2012 - a Games the | :15:54. | :16:06. | |
country stands accused of sabotage. Whether any of | :16:07. | :16:14. | |
its athletes are allowed to compete The British Islamic State militant | :16:15. | :16:17. | |
known as Jihadi John is believed to IM the children in the studio ahead | :16:18. | :16:41. | |
of tonight's appeals show. Happening tonight, for the first time without | :16:42. | :16:42. | |
Terry Wogan. A three-mile extension to the tram | :16:43. | :16:56. | |
line has been suggested in the capital. | :16:57. | :17:02. | |
And Andy Murray talks to us exclusively about the | :17:03. | :17:05. | |
World Tour Finals and the upcoming Davis Cup Tie. | :17:06. | :17:07. | |
He may be a controversial and divisive figure - | :17:08. | :17:09. | |
but there aren't many world leaders that can pack out Wembley Stadium. | :17:10. | :17:12. | |
But that's what India's Narendra Modi, on a tour | :17:13. | :17:14. | |
60,000 people from across the country travelled to | :17:15. | :17:17. | |
Reeta Chakrabarti is there for us now. | :17:18. | :17:22. | |
There may have been protests, but he got quite a welcome there. A huge | :17:23. | :17:34. | |
welcome. Modi Has been speaking about an hour with the audience | :17:35. | :17:38. | |
eating out of his hands. This venue is normally thought rock stars and | :17:39. | :17:41. | |
sports stars. Today it is the unlikely figure of Miranda Modi | :17:42. | :17:45. | |
taking centre stage. There are thousands of British Asians packed | :17:46. | :17:50. | |
into the stadium, and they are taking part in what feels like Modi | :17:51. | :18:00. | |
mania. It was a family day out, a political rally and a Diwali | :18:01. | :18:06. | |
celebration all rolled into one. He's a controversial figure back at | :18:07. | :18:10. | |
home, but listening to this audience you would not believe it. Why are | :18:11. | :18:16. | |
here? To show how important it is for me in Britain to be Indian, and | :18:17. | :18:20. | |
what it means to be Indian. Learning more about our culture. I want to | :18:21. | :18:28. | |
support Modi because he is doing a good job and I'm proud of him. He | :18:29. | :18:31. | |
has raised the international image of India to a higher degree. It is | :18:32. | :18:36. | |
an honour to see somebody from your background come to the UK and the | :18:37. | :18:42. | |
diversity. -- and embrace the diversity. The warm up acts of | :18:43. | :18:47. | |
British Indian talents went down well, but the biggest roar of the | :18:48. | :18:50. | |
afternoon was inevitably reserved for Prime Minister Modi himself. His | :18:51. | :18:58. | |
British counterpart, whom with ?10 billion of trade deals had been | :18:59. | :19:05. | |
done, played host. But it was Modi who stole the show. This is an | :19:06. | :19:08. | |
historic day. CHEERING | :19:09. | :19:17. | |
You are the heartbeat. CHEERING | :19:18. | :19:24. | |
Early in the day, a more sedate encounter as he had lunch in | :19:25. | :19:31. | |
Buckingham Palace with the Queen. For a man who in the last decade was | :19:32. | :19:35. | |
banned from the UK it is quite a turnaround in fortunes. Some of the | :19:36. | :19:40. | |
controversy still sticks to him. Protests have dogged his visit. | :19:41. | :19:44. | |
Critics say he champions only the rights of Indian Hindus and is | :19:45. | :19:48. | |
intolerant to minorities. There are people like Modi you're ignoring the | :19:49. | :19:54. | |
rights of minorities, trying to make us all into one big thing. That is | :19:55. | :20:00. | |
nationalism. That is not what we stand for. This is not what Indians | :20:01. | :20:07. | |
stand for. But if Modi came to milk things, you certainly did. He could | :20:08. | :20:13. | |
have wished for nothing more. -- he certainly succeeded. | :20:14. | :20:17. | |
The bodies of eight babies have been discovered in an apartment in a town | :20:18. | :20:23. | |

there is underway. It is believed she may be their mother. Police are | :20:27. | :20:31. | |
conducting friends at tests. They say they don't know how or when the | :20:32. | :20:33. | |
babies died. -- forensic tests. A 70-year-old van driver has died - | :20:34. | :20:41. | |

on behind you. They are just finishing off. This is where it will | :23:22. | :23:26. | |
all be happening in an hour's time. There will be stars here, from East | :23:27. | :23:33. | |

missing tonight. This will be the first time ever that Children In | :23:37. | :23:40. | |
And now some more news from Terry Wogan. | :23:41. | :23:44. | |
From the very beginning, in the 1980s, he has been | :23:45. | :23:46. | |
Presenting appeal after appeal, year after year, | :23:47. | :23:52. | |
Now, less than 24 hours before tonight's show, the BBC has | :23:53. | :24:01. | |
announced that he would not be able to host this evening's telethon. | :24:02. | :24:06. | |
Standing in for him will be presenter | :24:07. | :24:26. | |
Dermot O'Leary, who, earlier this year, raised more than half a | :24:27. | :24:29. | |
million for the charity Comic Relief with a 24-hour dance marathon. | :24:30. | :24:34. | |
Tonight will feature the customary appearances by figures | :24:35. | :24:38. | |
Four of the stars of hit drama Call The Midwife will take to | :24:39. | :24:47. | |
And there will be performances from West End musicals, | :24:48. | :24:51. | |
Across the country, people of all ages have been hard | :24:52. | :25:01. | |
And more money will come from the sales | :25:02. | :25:10. | |
of the official Children In Need single, Jess Glynne's Take Me Home. | :25:11. | :25:17. | |
All to try and help Children In Need raise a record-breaking total. | :25:18. | :25:20. | |
Despite tonight's conspicuous absence. | :25:21. | :25:28. | |
Over the years Children In Need has raised some ?790 million. The money | :25:29. | :25:37. | |
goes to disadvantaged children and youngsters across the UK. Last | :25:38. | :25:41. | |
year's appeal alone raised almost ?50 million. This year, they are, of | :25:42. | :25:48. | |
course, hoping to beat that. They certainly are. Thanks very | :25:49. | :25:48. | |
much. All the latest on the weather | :25:49. | :25:49. | |
in a moment - and you'd be forgiven for thinking it was snowing | :25:50. | :25:53. | |
from these pictures - taken today The white stuff's actually sea foam | :25:54. | :25:55. | |
- washed on shore by strong winds. Drivers were - understandably - | :25:56. | :26:00. | |
taking it easy. Let's have a look at the weekend | :26:01. | :26:09. | |
weather. I know it will be Let's have a look at the weekend | :26:10. | :26:13. | |
weather. I know it will be cold, but that is ridiculous. Stunning | :26:14. | :26:19. | |
pictures. But we saw some disruption to the transport because of it. I do | :26:20. | :26:23. | |
think we will see some disruption because of the rain this weekend. We | :26:24. | :26:26. | |
have at the first snow of the season up in Scotland. That was Perth, sent | :26:27. | :26:33. | |
in by one of our watches earlier today. There will be further snow | :26:34. | :26:37. | |
showers through the night. All eyes again turning out into the Atlantic | :26:38. | :26:45. | |
common looking at this cloud, which is the remains of hurricane Kate. | :26:46. | :26:52. | |
This means there will be lots of energy to give us rain. It can carry | :26:53. | :26:56. | |
a lot of moisture with it. You can see how elongated this area of low | :26:57. | :27:01. | |
pressure is. It will pulse in lots of rain, for some places all | :27:02. | :27:06. | |
weekend. Head of that, particularly over the hills of Scotland. -- ahead | :27:07. | :27:12. | |
of that. We could have our first icy event of the season for Scotland | :27:13. | :27:16. | |
tonight. Foremost, a chilly, blustery night. By morning, the rain | :27:17. | :27:20. | |
is arriving from Northern Ireland and western parts of England and | :27:21. | :27:24. | |
Wales. It will stretch across many parts, except the North of Scotland, | :27:25. | :27:27. | |
as it comes into the cold air it will some snow. But rain is the main | :27:28. | :27:34. | |
story this weekend. I cannot say it enough. Already we have had flooding | :27:35. | :27:38. | |
events. We have had about 150 millimetres already for parts of | :27:39. | :27:46. | |
Cumbria and Wales. Another 150 to 200 millimetres is already predicted | :27:47. | :27:50. | |
for this weekend. Touch and go for parts of south-west Scotland and | :27:51. | :27:54. | |
touches of Northern Ireland. On Sunday, the strong winds will | :27:55. | :27:56. | |
continue to push the rain into similar areas. There is uncertainty | :27:57. | :28:02. | |
as to where the heaviest rain will arise. Do not make this the last | :28:03. | :28:06. | |
forecast you will see because we are expecting some significant flooding | :28:07. | :28:09. | |
from this persistent heavy rain. Thanks very much. Our main story | :28:10. | :28:18. | |
this evening: To Hadi John is believed to have been killed in a US | :28:19. | :28:22. | |
air strike. Some of the relatives of the victims have greeted the news | :28:23. | :28:29. | |
differently. -- Jihadi John. | :28:30. | :28:31. |
