A vision for the UK outside the EU - the Leave campaign calls it | :00:00. | :00:08. | |
Michael Gove says we could still trade freely with Europe and not | :00:09. | :00:22. | |
have to abide by EU rules and regulations. | :00:23. | :00:31. | |
There is a free trade zone stretching from Iceland to Turkey, | :00:32. | :00:33. | |
which all European nations have access to, regardless | :00:34. | :00:35. | |
of whether they are in or out of the euro or the EU. | :00:36. | :00:39. | |
But those fighting for the UK to remain in the EU | :00:40. | :00:41. | |
condemned Mr Gove's claims as unfounded and untenable. | :00:42. | :00:43. | |
The father jailed for assaulting his baby daughter. | :00:44. | :00:46. | |

With just over two weeks to election day, we're in the chamber | :01:07. | :01:10. | |
of the Scottish Parliament - which is fast becoming one | :01:11. | :01:13. | |
of the most powerful devolved bodies in the world - | :01:14. | :01:15. | |
And we have the latest on the campaign. | :01:16. | :01:18. | |
We'll be reporting on how Scotland spends its money - | :01:19. | :01:21. | |
and what the parties have to say about taxation - one of the main | :01:22. | :01:24. | |
And coming up in Sportsday, Newcastle's fight to beat | :01:25. | :01:32. | |
the drop continues - a win against Manchester City | :01:33. | :01:34. | |
tonight will take them out of the relegation zone. | :01:35. | :01:58. | |
Good evening. Welcome to the BBC News at six o'clock. Michael Gove | :01:59. | :02:05. | |
has outlined how he believes the UK's economy could thrive outside | :02:06. | :02:10. | |
the EU. One of the leading figures in the Vote Leave group, Mr Gove | :02:11. | :02:21. | |
suggests the UK could be part of what is known as the European free | :02:22. | :02:25. | |
trade zone and struck a unique deal which lets Britain trade with Europe | :02:26. | :02:29. | |
but not abide by EU laws such as the free movement of people. Yet those | :02:30. | :02:34. | |
arguing to stay in the EU claim he is labouring under serious | :02:35. | :02:36. | |
misunderstanding of Filling in the blanks, those who | :02:37. | :02:49. | |
have been campaigning to remain in the UK are mocked. The man with a | :02:50. | :02:55. | |
slightly more detailed plan and ridiculed for his colleagues Martyn | :02:56. | :03:01. | |
warnings, cabinet list Michael Gove. The idea that if Britain voted to | :03:02. | :03:05. | |
leave the European Union we would suddenly become some sort of hermit | :03:06. | :03:09. | |
kingdom, and north Atlantic North Korea and without that country's | :03:10. | :03:14. | |
fund of international goodwill! It's a fantasy. A phantom. A great | :03:15. | :03:20. | |
grotesque patronising and preposterous Peter Mandelson type | :03:21. | :03:29. | |
conceit. The suggestion is that the people of this country are children | :03:30. | :03:34. | |
frightened of the bogeyman. If you can banish the bogeyman by being as | :03:35. | :03:38. | |
clear as clear as you can about what the future would be like if we | :03:39. | :03:43. | |
leave. In the simplest of terms can you describe our trading | :03:44. | :03:47. | |
relationships? We would be part of a free-trade zone that extends from | :03:48. | :03:53. | |
Iceland to Turkey. By being part of that free trade zone we would have | :03:54. | :03:57. | |
access to the European market but we would be freed from EU regulation. | :03:58. | :04:04. | |
They love those ambitions here, outside the single market, but | :04:05. | :04:09. | |
trading freely without EU migration. The message coming out of Vote | :04:10. | :04:14. | |
Leave's anonymous headquarters is a goal of hope versus fear. They are | :04:15. | :04:18. | |
being a bit more explicit about how the economy might look if we leave | :04:19. | :04:23. | |
the EU but there is precious little detail of how it would actually | :04:24. | :04:27. | |
work. And over there, they say it just won't wash. The In the campaign | :04:28. | :04:34. | |
scoffed, we trade in a similar fashion to contract Albania and we | :04:35. | :04:39. | |
would be lonelier and poorer outside EU. The Leave campaign have said and | :04:40. | :04:45. | |
being outside the single market, this means a risk of tariffs, | :04:46. | :04:49. | |
services would not be included and that is a real threat to jobs, | :04:50. | :04:54. | |
investment and trade. Whatever Michael said is right! They agree | :04:55. | :04:59. | |
and a powerful minority of ministers believe the obstacles to Brexit | :05:00. | :05:06. | |
could be hurdled over. There's a lot of scaremongering. Even if it is | :05:07. | :05:11. | |
desirable is it feasible for us to be outside yet get the benefits of | :05:12. | :05:17. | |
being in? Anything will involve trade-offs, the closer to the market | :05:18. | :05:20. | |
you want to get them all exceptions it will have to accept. In what was | :05:21. | :05:26. | |
described as the definitive speech Michael Gove made the boldest claim | :05:27. | :05:31. | |
yet. Voting to leave will be a powerful galvanising moment of | :05:32. | :05:35. | |
patriotic renewal. Yet for Europe written voting to leave will be the | :05:36. | :05:38. | |
beginning of something even more exciting, the Democratic liberation | :05:39. | :05:43. | |
of the continent. Voters crossing their fingers that if we vote to | :05:44. | :05:47. | |
leave the whole of the EU might crumble. Their rivals hope that luck | :05:48. | :05:49. | |
and logic will end up on their side. With me is our business editor. Tell | :05:50. | :06:00. | |
us more about this free trade zone and how the campaign's suggestion | :06:01. | :06:04. | |
that we could be part of it would work. The lots of free trade | :06:05. | :06:08. | |
agreements around the world, one of the most relative is the European | :06:09. | :06:12. | |
free trade Association which includes Iceland, Norway, | :06:13. | :06:16. | |
Switzerland. Of those three, two of them are in the European economic | :06:17. | :06:21. | |
area, which is like EU light. All the EU rules apply, it covers | :06:22. | :06:26. | |
fisheries which are important to us with and away Switzerland which does | :06:27. | :06:32. | |
have access to the single market although it cannot for example sell | :06:33. | :06:35. | |
financial products directly and what have you. The Switzerland idea is | :06:36. | :06:39. | |
probably closest to what Mr Gove is presenting. Yet at the same time | :06:40. | :06:43. | |
they have free movement of people so that might not match up either. So | :06:44. | :06:48. | |
what he proposes by his own admission is unique deal. It doesn't | :06:49. | :06:52. | |
exist anywhere at the moment. He says, with the fifth largest economy | :06:53. | :06:57. | |
in the world, we would get that special deal. Salmon, thank you. | :06:58. | :07:03. | |

the BBC website, Of reality Check. A father who was convicted | :07:06. | :07:11. | |
of assaulting his six week old daughter, but whose conviction | :07:12. | :07:14. | |
was then quashed, is now accused Ellie Butler died from | :07:15. | :07:17. | |
a "catastrophic" head injury allegedly inflicted by her father | :07:18. | :07:20. | |
Ben at their home in south-west He and Ellie's mother are accused | :07:21. | :07:23. | |
of staging an elaborate cover up Our social affairs correspondent | :07:24. | :07:27. | |
Alison Holt has been following the trial | :07:28. | :07:30. | |
at the Old Bailey. The Battler home on the upper level | :07:31. | :07:39. | |
of these south London maisonettes was, said the prosecution, toxic | :07:40. | :07:44. | |
environment. Behind the front door, the Old Bailey jury was told that | :07:45. | :07:50. | |
then battler was an angry, violent man who dominated family life. The | :07:51. | :07:54. | |
court was told he had a short fuse. It is claimed that in October 2013 | :07:55. | :08:01. | |
in a violent outburst he murdered his six-year old daughter Ellie. She | :08:02. | :08:04. | |
suffered severe head injuries. The jury also heard that in 2007, the | :08:05. | :08:10. | |
father was found guilty of harming Ellie. She was just six weeks old | :08:11. | :08:15. | |
and was taken into care but on appeal that conviction was quashed | :08:16. | :08:19. | |
and she returned home. Inside court eight at the Old Bailey today the | :08:20. | :08:23. | |
prosecution painted a picture of life with Ben Butler and the mother | :08:24. | :08:34. | |
of Ellie, Jenny Gray. She denies manslaughter. Texts between them in | :08:35. | :08:38. | |
the months before the death were read out, those from Ben Butler were | :08:39. | :08:42. | |
often angry. In one come he says, I cannot cope any more, woke up, I am | :08:43. | :08:47. | |
in a rage already, one more mystic and I will lose it. He was | :08:48. | :08:51. | |
frequently abusive to his partner, in another message he says, you are | :08:52. | :08:55. | |
dead when I come home, I will kill you later. She would try to calm | :08:56. | :09:00. | |
him, saying, I want you more than anything I ever wanted, even more | :09:01. | :09:01. | |
than my kids. Yet the court searches give an insight | :09:02. | :09:36. | |
into what was happening, and with a bloody man who beats me and says I | :09:37. | :09:39. | |
am ugly and fat and beats me all the time. Prosecuting, Edward Bryant QC | :09:40. | :09:41. | |
said that on the day that Ellie died Ben Butler made four quick calls to | :09:42. | :09:45. | |
his partner who was at work in the centre of London. The court was told | :09:46. | :09:47. | |
that within minutes of Jenny getting the phone calls from him she was | :09:48. | :09:50. | |
here just around the corner from her work, trying to get a taxi home. The | :09:51. | :09:53. | |
prosecution say it was part of a frantic reaction to what she had | :09:54. | :09:55. | |
heard. It is claimed that at home they staged things to make it | :09:56. | :09:58. | |
because of Ellie had had an accident and then made a desperate man and | :09:59. | :10:01. | |
I'm called. The jury heard that Ellie had died two hours before | :10:02. | :10:03. | |
that. Ben Butler denies murder, the case is expected to last at least | :10:04. | :10:04. | |
six weeks. Alison Holt, BBC News. The number of people known to have | :10:05. | :10:06. | |
died in the earthquake that struck Ecuador on Saturday has risen | :10:07. | :10:09. | |
above four hundred. Rescue teams - searching | :10:10. | :10:11. | |

in a Taliban suicide bomb and gun assault on a government security | :10:21. | :10:25. | |
building in the Afghan More than three hundred people | :10:26. | :10:27. | |
were wounded in the attack A car bomb was detonated | :10:28. | :10:30. | |
near a security headquarters, and there was a gun | :10:31. | :10:34. | |
battle with police. The police said most of those | :10:35. | :10:36. | |
killed were civilians. Emergency officials in the US state | :10:37. | :10:38. | |
of Texas are warning of further severe flooding in the city | :10:39. | :10:41. | |
of Houston as floodwaters flow | :10:42. | :10:42. | |
down into the city. Five people have been killed | :10:43. | :10:50. | |
and 1,200 had to be rescued after extreme rainfall | :10:51. | :10:53. | |
hit Houston yesterday. Some areas had seen the equivalent | :10:54. | :10:54. | |
of nearly sixteen inches It's been described | :10:55. | :10:57. | |
by the Prime Minister as 'one of the greatest | :10:58. | :11:00. | |
enemies of humanity'. And yet the growth of dementia | :11:01. | :11:02. | |
in the UK may not be Research, published in the journal | :11:03. | :11:05. | |
Nature, suggests new cases of dementia are up to a fifth lower | :11:06. | :11:09. | |
than might have been Our Health Correspondent Dominic | :11:10. | :11:12. | |
Hughes reports. A diagnosis of dementia | :11:13. | :11:19. | |
changes lives forever. Each year tens of thousands | :11:20. | :11:24. | |
of families join those who have That will give her a break and be | :11:25. | :11:27. | |
company for you... Walking groups like these one | :11:28. | :11:45. | |
are a really important way of giving people with dementia, | :11:46. | :11:50. | |
and their carers who look after And there's no doubt that | :11:51. | :11:52. | |
with a growing, ageing population, But the key question is - | :11:53. | :11:56. | |
exactly how many? Research, conducted over two | :11:57. | :11:59. | |
decades, suggests dire predictions of a dementia tsunami may | :12:00. | :12:01. | |
be wide of the mark. Today's study has found a 20% | :12:02. | :12:04. | |
reduction in the proportion of people developing dementia, | :12:05. | :12:06. | |
driven largely by This report suggests across the UK | :12:07. | :12:08. | |
there are just under 210,000 cases a year - | :12:09. | :12:11. | |
74,000 men and 135,000 women. Dementia remains a very | :12:12. | :12:15. | |
important condition, but it hasn't increased as much | :12:16. | :12:18. | |
as we would have expected. We do have an increased number | :12:19. | :12:21. | |
of people developing dementia because of the ageing | :12:22. | :12:23. | |
of the population, So that's 40,000 less | :12:24. | :12:25. | |
than we would have expected. Singing For The Brain is one | :12:26. | :12:33. | |
way of trying to slow Why there's been a proportional fall | :12:34. | :12:36. | |
in new cases is not clear. It could be healthier lifestyles, | :12:37. | :12:44. | |
such as a decline in smoking. Charities say this is good news, | :12:45. | :12:47. | |
but dementia remains There are still over 200,000 | :12:48. | :12:50. | |
new cases of dementia each year, according to this new research, | :12:51. | :12:58. | |
and therefore we need to invest in research and we need to find | :12:59. | :13:00. | |
better care and support. Dementia is a particularly cruel | :13:01. | :13:03. | |
disease, robbing us of loved But while there is still no | :13:04. | :13:06. | |
cure or even a really effective treatment, | :13:07. | :13:11. | |
it now seems we are doing something right - | :13:12. | :13:12. | |
we just don't know exactly what. The time is coming up to a quarter | :13:13. | :13:26. | |
past six. In a moment we will be live in Scotland as voters prepare | :13:27. | :13:30. | |
for the Scottish elections. First, a reminder of the top story. Michael | :13:31. | :13:34. | |
Gove has outlined how he believes the UK will be able to trade freely | :13:35. | :13:37. | |
with Europe even outside the EU. In the next 15 minutes on BBC News | :13:38. | :13:47. | |
will have the latest from the crucible where John Higgins looked | :13:48. | :13:49. | |
in brilliant form to reach the second round of the World | :13:50. | :13:51. | |
Championship. We've been given special | :13:52. | :14:01. | |
access to the chamber of the Scottish Parliament, | :14:02. | :14:06. | |
one of the most powerful devolved bodies anywhere in the world, | :14:07. | :14:09. | |
and it's going to get even more powerful in the years ahead, | :14:10. | :14:12. | |
with more powers over taxation That's the all-important context | :14:13. | :14:15. | |
to this year's elections which take Scottish voters will be | :14:16. | :14:23. | |
electing 129 members to sit in this chamber, | :14:24. | :14:27. | |
a chamber dominated by Scottish National Party | :14:28. | :14:30. | |
for much of the past decade. Our Scotland editor | :14:31. | :14:36. | |
Sarah Smith reports now on one of the main talking points | :14:37. | :14:38. | |
of the campaign so far. The famous Forth Bridges - | :14:39. | :14:42. | |
road and rail - are being joined Here, Scots can see what their taxes | :14:43. | :14:44. | |
are being spent on. Before this bridge is finished, | :14:45. | :14:52. | |
Scottish voters have a choice to Whoever wins this election will, | :14:53. | :14:55. | |
for the first time, have the power to set income tax rates and that's | :14:56. | :15:03. | |
what's dominating the debate. The Scottish Labour leader | :15:04. | :15:07. | |
is making a bold pitch, Proposing to put a penny | :15:08. | :15:09. | |
on the basic rate and higher rates of tax, while putting the top rate | :15:10. | :15:16. | |
up to 50p. It is a very clear and simple | :15:17. | :15:20. | |
message that we have for the Scottish electorate, | :15:21. | :15:24. | |
if you want to stop the cuts and end austerity, invest | :15:25. | :15:26. | |
in your children's future, you have to use the powers | :15:27. | :15:28. | |
of the parliament to make different The SNP leader is playing | :15:29. | :15:31. | |
a different game. Last year she too was arguing | :15:32. | :15:38. | |
for a 50p top rate, now she is proposing far | :15:39. | :15:41. | |
more modest changes. Saying only that she would not pass | :15:42. | :15:45. | |
on the tax cut for higher earners The real difference | :15:46. | :15:49. | |
between the SNP's tax proposals in this election and Labour's tax | :15:50. | :15:53. | |
proposals, it is not at the top end, but how we are propsing to treat | :15:54. | :15:56. | |
people on low and average incomes. Labour wants to increase tax | :15:57. | :16:00. | |
on everybody, even if they earn We want to protect those | :16:01. | :16:02. | |
on lower incomes - It is a curious feature of this | :16:03. | :16:07. | |
election that the SNP, the party who have always argued | :16:08. | :16:15. | |
for more powers for the Scottish Parliament, | :16:16. | :16:18. | |
are taking a remarkably cautious approach to using the powers over | :16:19. | :16:19. | |
taxation the parliament What is quite clear now with the SNP | :16:20. | :16:23. | |
is despite the rhetoric - the wild rhetoric - | :16:24. | :16:31. | |
condemning everybody else from the left, they are not prepared | :16:32. | :16:32. | |
to do anything far too cautious and timid and not | :16:33. | :16:36. | |
ambitious for Scotland. The Lib Dems, like Labour, | :16:37. | :16:39. | |
propose a penny on the basic and higher rates of tax, | :16:40. | :16:42. | |
with a top rate of 46p. The Greens want to go further, | :16:43. | :16:50. | |
with a 60p top rate, and a tax cut We do think it is absurd that very, | :16:51. | :16:53. | |
very high earners, people on astronomical incomes, | :16:54. | :17:00. | |
way beyond what most people will ever earn, | :17:01. | :17:03. | |
are being undertaxed. We see an incredible gulf | :17:04. | :17:06. | |
between rich and poor. The Tories had hoped to squeeze some | :17:07. | :17:11. | |
tax cuts into their platform, but have decided Scotland can't | :17:12. | :17:16. | |
afford that right now. They are enjoying being the only | :17:17. | :17:19. | |
major party that does not We don't believe that you should | :17:20. | :17:22. | |
have to pay more tax in Scotland We think it is bad for individuals, | :17:23. | :17:27. | |
the money in their pocket, and we also think it's bad | :17:28. | :17:33. | |
for the Scottish economy, to make us the highest | :17:34. | :17:35. | |
taxed part of the UK. The new bridge, the Queen's Ferry | :17:36. | :17:38. | |
Crossing has cost almost ?1.5 billion of public money | :17:39. | :17:41. | |
and will open later this year. All the political parties | :17:42. | :17:45. | |
who propose higher taxes, are now making pledges | :17:46. | :17:48. | |
to spend the money raised Giving voters in Scotland a choice | :17:49. | :17:50. | |
about whether they are prepared to pay more for the promise | :17:51. | :17:58. | |
of increased public spending. Sarah Smith, BBC News, | :17:59. | :18:00. | |
North Queensferry. If we believe the polls, we know now | :18:01. | :18:15. | |
that the SNP will be dominating this chamber for another five years, so | :18:16. | :18:20. | |
what is at stake? Whoever wins the election, the next Government will | :18:21. | :18:24. | |
have far greater powers than any previous administration, taking | :18:25. | :18:31. | |
control of income tax as well as some benefits, and the Scottish | :18:32. | :18:36. | |
parliament will be in charge of raising a lot of the money they | :18:37. | :18:39. | |
spend, so if they want to make promises on what they will spend, | :18:40. | :18:41. | |
they will also have to explain where the money will come from, and that | :18:42. | :18:44. | |
could have a profound effect on Scottish politics. It is just 18 | :18:45. | :18:51. | |
months or so since the Scottish National party and its allies lost | :18:52. | :18:54. | |
that referendum, so what is happening next? Although this | :18:55. | :18:59. | |
election is not about whether or not Scotland should be an independent | :19:00. | :19:02. | |
country, Scottish voters are divided now into yes and no supporters, and | :19:03. | :19:06. | |
that hasn't big impact on what part you are likely to vote for, so the | :19:07. | :19:11. | |
SNP could expect most people, the 45% who voted for independence, | :19:12. | :19:15. | |
devote them in this election, and that leaves Labour, the Tories and | :19:16. | :19:19. | |
the Liberal Democrats fighting over the remaining unionist vote, which | :19:20. | :19:23. | |
goes some way to explain why they are so far behind. Sarah Smith, | :19:24. | :19:24. | |
thank you very much. Sarah and I will be back with more | :19:25. | :19:26. | |
from Edinburgh at Ten tonight, and I'll be visiting the magnificent | :19:27. | :19:29. | |
old Parliament House in the heart of the capital in the company of two | :19:30. | :19:32. | |
of Scotland's political experts. We'll be asking if, 18 months | :19:33. | :19:36. | |
after the referendum, Scotland is nonetheless | :19:37. | :19:38. | |
on a path towards independence. But for now it's back | :19:39. | :19:43. | |
to Fiona in London. The General Medical Council has | :19:44. | :19:47. | |
urged junior doctors in England to rethink plans to take part | :19:48. | :19:52. | |
in next week's first ever strike involving A, | :19:53. | :19:54. | |
intensive care and maternity units. Junior doctors have taken part | :19:55. | :19:58. | |
in a series of strikes as part of a bitter dispute | :19:59. | :20:01. | |
with the Government over Let's talk to our health editor | :20:02. | :20:03. | |
Hugh Pym, who's outside St Thomas' How significant is this intervention | :20:04. | :20:08. | |
by the GMC? I think it is significant, that the | :20:09. | :20:19. | |
doctors regulator feels the need to put out this guidance. It does say | :20:20. | :20:23. | |
it understands what it calls the anger and frustration felt by junior | :20:24. | :20:26. | |
doctors after the Government decided to impose the contract in England, | :20:27. | :20:30. | |
but it goes on to say that some hospitals may well be struggling to | :20:31. | :20:33. | |
cope, and that at those hospitals, doctors will have to think very hard | :20:34. | :20:38. | |
and possibly not take any action if that resulted in services being | :20:39. | :20:42. | |
withdrawn from patients. The doctors union, the BMA, have said that | :20:43. | :20:47. | |
services will be covered next week by senior doctors, consultants, and | :20:48. | :20:52. | |
patients should be reassured, and it says there will be local | :20:53. | :20:54. | |
arrangements at managers so that if there is a major unforeseen | :20:55. | :20:58. | |
incident, doctors would go back in. One thing that seems clear, there is | :20:59. | :21:01. | |
no sign of any further talks happening, so it does seem as though | :21:02. | :21:05. | |
these unprecedented strikes will go ahead next week. Hugh Pym, thank | :21:06. | :21:07. | |
you. The Queen turns 90 this week, | :21:08. | :21:09. | |
and her passion for horses and racing shows little | :21:10. | :21:12. | |
sign of fading. She has owned and bred horses | :21:13. | :21:13. | |
throughout her reign, earning her considerable respect | :21:14. | :21:16. | |
for her expertise. And some of her most | :21:17. | :21:17. | |
unguarded moments have been Sarah Campbell went to meet her | :21:18. | :21:19. | |

who has worked with her Look at the delight | :21:24. | :21:25. | |
there, the sheer joy... The Gold Cup at Ascot, | :21:26. | :21:30. | |
the Queen's horse Estimate Next to her, and putting royal | :21:31. | :21:32. | |
protocol aside, her long-time racing The foal was born at | :21:33. | :21:39. | |
1.45 last night... Breeding horses to produce | :21:40. | :21:47. | |
winners is far from easy, and the Queen is involved | :21:48. | :21:49. | |
at every stage. She has roughly 15 foals a season, | :21:50. | :21:53. | |
so she will want the photography, she will want all the detail, | :21:54. | :22:00. | |
and that's done on a daily basis. Within the horsing fraternity, | :22:01. | :22:05. | |
how is she viewed? Well, everyone in the whole racing | :22:06. | :22:12. | |
industry is astutely aware The Queen has half a dozen trainers, | :22:13. | :22:15. | |
and the great asset the Queen has, she can get to the quick | :22:16. | :22:23. | |
of the issue very quickly, because she has seen so many issues | :22:24. | :22:25. | |
over her career as Whether riding around Windsor Great | :22:26. | :22:28. | |
Park with her sister... Or cleaning up at the races, | :22:29. | :22:38. | |
horses have always played a big part Seemingly, the Queen just has this | :22:39. | :22:41. | |
affinity with horses, and she can just allow horses | :22:42. | :22:51. | |
to sort of relax around her. That is very evident | :22:52. | :22:54. | |
when you're with her. And she still riding | :22:55. | :22:56. | |
and still as involved 90 years of age, she still riding, | :22:57. | :22:58. | |
weather permitting. And she can't wait to get | :22:59. | :23:02. | |
out and see her horses. I'm sure if the Queen was not bred | :23:03. | :23:06. | |
into being a monarch, she would have found | :23:07. | :23:09. | |
a vocation with horses. Hers has been a life | :23:10. | :23:13. | |
devoted to public duty, but horses continue to be | :23:14. | :23:19. | |
the Queen's private passion. Sarah Campbell, BBC News, | :23:20. | :23:22. | |
Highclere Stud. Star Wars is one of the most popular | :23:23. | :23:34. | |
film franchises ever created, with millions of fans across the world, | :23:35. | :23:44. | |
including Princes William and Harry. S neither could resist trying out | :23:45. | :23:51. | |
the famous light sabres when they visited the studios where the latest | :23:52. | :23:52. | |
Star Wars film is being made. More sunshine to come in the next | :23:53. | :24:06. | |
few days. This one in the Highlands, taken by one of our weather | :24:07. | :24:09. | |
Watchers, and you can season snow dusted the mountains. In Greater | :24:10. | :24:14. | |
London, temperatures reaching as high as 15 Celsius. But temperatures | :24:15. | :24:21. | |
will fall sharply tonight. It will turn cold, and we will find | :24:22. | :24:26. | |
particularly in the countryside, the risk of frost, all the way from mid | :24:27. | :24:33. | |
Wales northwards. Not quite as cold at the far south-west, but here | :24:34. | :24:36. | |
there will be a much stronger wind. From many parts of the country, | :24:37. | :24:40. | |
another lovely day, lots of sunshine on offer. I think we will see cloud | :24:41. | :24:46. | |
tending to build through the day, and a weak weather front which will | :24:47. | :24:51. | |
build a few spots of rain. A fine day for Northern Ireland, sunny | :24:52. | :24:54. | |
spells here, more Sunter come at times. For many places it will be | :24:55. | :25:02. | |
warmer than today, it could hit 16 and 17 in the north and west of | :25:03. | :25:06. | |
Wales, north-west England. But gusty winds across the south-west. A high | :25:07. | :25:10. | |
pressure is getting squeezed away into the Atlantic by the end of this | :25:11. | :25:15. | |
week, week weather fronts brushing the North of Scotland. That will | :25:16. | :25:21. | |
probably not arrive over southernmost parts of England and | :25:22. | :25:25. | |
South Wales until Friday. Some sunshine on Thursday, a little more | :25:26. | :25:28. | |
cloud around on Friday, temperatures some four degrees lower. We are | :25:29. | :25:33. | |
getting a northerly wind, perhaps coming all the way from the Arctic | :25:34. | :25:36. | |
in time for the weekend, a bit like it was last weekend in fact. It will | :25:37. | :25:41. | |
be turning noticeably colder, especially in strong northerly | :25:42. | :25:46. | |
winds. It won't be too bad in the sun, but there will be showers | :25:47. | :25:48. | |
around that could be of a wintry flavour. So enjoy the warm sunshine | :25:49. | :25:51. | |
while we have it. Michael Gove, one of the leading | :25:52. | :26:03. | |
figures of the Leave campaign says the UK out of the EE would still be | :26:04. | :26:07. | |
able to treat Fraley with Europe without having to abide by EU rules | :26:08. | :26:09. | |
and regulations. That's all from the BBC News at Six, | :26:10. | :26:11. | |
