Documents shredded by the Met Police, the same year | :00:16. | :00:23. | |
they're accused of destroying files relating to a Green Party peer. | :00:24. | :00:25. | |
Damp, mould and visits to hospital - the estate in Rainham | :00:26. | :00:28. | |
Objects spanning it many years of history have been unearthed by | :00:29. | :00:44. | |
Crossrail. The old and new, the raw | :00:45. | :00:45. | |
and the refined - we catch up with the pop artist Lhouette | :00:46. | :00:48. | |
to discuss his new exhibition. Good evening and welcome | :00:49. | :00:57. | |
to the programme. Several people were injured this | :00:58. | :00:59. | |
morning after a rush-hour train Witnesses described scenes of "sheer | :01:00. | :01:05. | |
terror and panic" and passengers were forced to "jump on the tracks" | :01:06. | :01:10. | |
after smoke filled a carriage on an overground train | :01:11. | :01:13. | |
near Dalston Kingsland Station. London Fire Brigade said | :01:14. | :01:17. | |
it was caused by an overheating battery on a drill which was being | :01:18. | :01:23. | |
carried by a passenger. Our transport correspondent | :01:24. | :01:26. | |
Tom Edwards has the story. You can still view the anxiety and | :01:27. | :01:38. | |
panic from these commuters, just moments earlier they saw smoke and | :01:39. | :01:43. | |
used an emergency lever to open the doors. They left the carriages and | :01:44. | :01:47. | |
ran down the platform and some went on to the nearby tracks. It all | :01:48. | :01:57. | |
happened at just after 7am. It is at Dalston King's Lynn overburden | :01:58. | :02:04. | |
station. People looked very scared. It looked as though they were | :02:05. | :02:08. | |
running away from someone. I thought that somebody is attacking us | :02:09. | :02:14. | |
something. It was very serious. This man was on the train and Gypsy | :02:15. | :02:21. | |
footage. He witnessed the shooting confusion and stampede. -- and Gypsy | :02:22. | :02:25. | |
footage. I worried that there was another train coming but we just had | :02:26. | :02:30. | |
to get off. I thought that somebody was attacking 's movie with a gun | :02:31. | :02:34. | |
because the whole train was running and everybody was running. It | :02:35. | :02:40. | |
sounded very, very serious. In the rush to get from the train, a number | :02:41. | :02:46. | |
of passengers were injured. This man has a head wound. Others suffered | :02:47. | :02:51. | |
miner injuries. This was the unlikely cause, a battery from a | :02:52. | :02:56. | |
drill overheated and started to smoke. Three off-duty police | :02:57. | :03:02. | |
officers helped to fainted. Transport for London says that all | :03:03. | :03:07. | |
the trains in the area have been sent to a standstill. When we have | :03:08. | :03:11. | |
an incident like this, people become nervous and people wanted to get | :03:12. | :03:16. | |
away from the event and onto the platform. They did so safely and we | :03:17. | :03:20. | |
were happy that the outcome worked well. Full of those injured were | :03:21. | :03:27. | |
taken to hospital. The police say that this incident was not | :03:28. | :03:31. | |
suspicious. Transport bosses will review what happened and how so many | :03:32. | :03:35. | |
passengers ended up on potentially dangerous tracks. | :03:36. | :03:37. | |
The Independent Police Complaints Commission says there is evidence | :03:38. | :03:39. | |
that a large number of documents were shredded in May 2014 relating | :03:40. | :03:43. | |
to a Metropolitan Police unit that investigates domestic | :03:44. | :03:45. | |
Danny Shaw is with me now and can tell us more. | :03:46. | :03:56. | |
To understand the significance, we have to go back to March 2000 and | :03:57. | :04:04. | |
40. That is when the review reported into alleged corruption in the | :04:05. | :04:07. | |
Stephen Lawrence case. It said that there was a mass shredding of | :04:08. | :04:13. | |
documents. That prompted the Metropolitan Police remission to | :04:14. | :04:16. | |
instruct officers not to shed any more documents until he investigated | :04:17. | :04:25. | |
the officer. -- the matter. The Met had a duty to conserve all documents | :04:26. | :04:31. | |
relevant to the enquiries. Now we learn that a two months later, in | :04:32. | :04:38. | |
2014 May. A large number of documents were shredded. These | :04:39. | :04:42. | |
documents were held in a unit operated by Scotland Yard out of the | :04:43. | :04:48. | |
National Domestic Extremism And Disorders Unit the IPC is now | :04:49. | :04:56. | |
investing this. They are trying to find out why it was done and who | :04:57. | :05:00. | |
authorised it. Some electronic copies might have been in existence. | :05:01. | :05:09. | |
The IPC C is also looking into claims that documents relating to | :05:10. | :05:15. | |
the Green party peer were shredded as well. These are saved his claims | :05:16. | :05:20. | |
and are now under investigation. The response from Scotland Yard is that | :05:21. | :05:25. | |
they committed to providing the fullest possible cooperation into | :05:26. | :05:28. | |
undercover policing. Thank you very much. | :05:29. | :05:29. | |
The Romford barber hoping to change not just hairstyles but lives, too. | :05:30. | :05:46. | |
A man has died after the car he was driving collided a lorry | :05:47. | :05:49. | |
whilst being pursued by police in Kempton Park this morning. | :05:50. | :05:51. | |
It happened just before 4:30 on the southbound | :05:52. | :05:53. | |
Police say the driver had failed to stop. | :05:54. | :05:57. | |
The police watchdog is appealing for witnesses. | :05:58. | :06:04. | |
All front-line Thames Valley Police officers are to be equipped | :06:05. | :06:06. | |
with "spit hoods" to protect them being bitten or spat at. | :06:07. | :06:09. | |
The mesh hoods - which are placed over the suspect's head - | :06:10. | :06:12. | |
have also been trialled by the Metropolitan Police. | :06:13. | :06:14. | |
But their use has been condemned by human rights organisations | :06:15. | :06:16. | |
and rejected by some other police forces. | :06:17. | :06:24. | |
We reported yesterday on Surrey County Council's abandoned | :06:25. | :06:26. | |
plans for a 15% rise in council tax to help pay for social care. | :06:27. | :06:30. | |
And as we've been hearing today, the Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn has | :06:31. | :06:34. | |
accused ministers of agreeing "a sweetheart deal" | :06:35. | :06:36. | |
So where does that leave other Councils who are strapped for cash | :06:37. | :06:40. | |
Our political editor Tim Donovan is at Westminster. | :06:41. | :06:53. | |
What happened in the two weeks, forthright goal the leader of the | :06:54. | :07:00. | |
campaign was saying that he needed to put the tax up by 50% and then | :07:01. | :07:05. | |
now he is saying that he can do it with just 5%. David Hodge was saying | :07:06. | :07:10. | |
that there had been discussions in that period between his cancer and | :07:11. | :07:15. | |
Government officials. -- Prydie tax up by 15%. He was a little bit quiet | :07:16. | :07:17. | |
on the details. Oh, how would we look | :07:18. | :07:19. | |
at our budgets in those days? We've now had greater assurances | :07:20. | :07:22. | |
that the Government is clearly understanding adult social | :07:23. | :07:24. | |
care is a major issue in the We are working with the Government | :07:25. | :07:27. | |
on various ideas as to So you've had assurances | :07:28. | :07:31. | |
in this short space of time that there will be | :07:32. | :07:35. | |
more money towards social funding? No, I wouldn't say we've had | :07:36. | :07:38. | |
assurances, we've had conversations and I think the Government | :07:39. | :07:41. | |
recognises that adult social care is a national issue and we need to look | :07:42. | :07:46. | |
for some alternative To date, within a few overs, he | :07:47. | :08:00. | |
finds itself at the centre of a political storm over some texts that | :08:01. | :08:05. | |
he seems to have sent to the wrong person and his critics say that | :08:06. | :08:09. | |
there was a kind of sweetheart deal. It was cooked up between Government | :08:10. | :08:13. | |
officials that means that he will get more money from -- in the | :08:14. | :08:19. | |
council offers. He says that there is no deal and that dinner has been. | :08:20. | :08:25. | |
-- and that there never has been. Tim, what implications could this | :08:26. | :08:31. | |
have for London councils Can you imagine how they would be | :08:32. | :08:39. | |
reacting to this when they have been saying that they will have a big | :08:40. | :08:45. | |
black hole over many years? One MP said that he would be surprised | :08:46. | :08:50. | |
because the other councillors will be up in arms. Labour councils have | :08:51. | :08:55. | |
been weighing in saying that this suggests sheer political | :08:56. | :09:03. | |
favouritism. I am as honest to see that backroom deals going on with | :09:04. | :09:07. | |
the national Government about this. You should not be doing sweetheart | :09:08. | :09:12. | |
deals. If there is extra money for adult social care, we needed in | :09:13. | :09:16. | |
Lambeth. It is a national crisis that is response from national | :09:17. | :09:20. | |
Government. You should not have to have friends in high places to get | :09:21. | :09:26. | |
proper treatment when you're old, disabled or sick. Truth is, we will | :09:27. | :09:32. | |
have to watch with interest when the revised budget proposals are put out | :09:33. | :09:36. | |
in Surrey. You can imagine what they think in Downing Street. Thank you, | :09:37. | :09:41. | |
Tim. HS2, the Northern line | :09:42. | :09:47. | |
tube extension and the major infrastructure projects that | :09:48. | :09:49. | |
are fuelling a building A report out today has found that | :09:50. | :09:52. | |
London's construction sector is set to grow by nearly 60% over | :09:53. | :09:56. | |
the next three years. But with a large number of workers | :09:57. | :10:00. | |
coming from the European Union, there's uncertainty over how Brexit | :10:01. | :10:03. | |
could affect the capital's ability Alex Bushill has been | :10:04. | :10:05. | |
at a construction site Does Brexit mean boom | :10:06. | :10:11. | |
or bust for our builders? Well, the forecast was gloomy | :10:12. | :10:21. | |
but today new figures from one respected source say things | :10:22. | :10:23. | |
are looking up. The construction sector in the | :10:24. | :10:25. | |
capital is holding up really well. It's underpinned by big | :10:26. | :10:28. | |
infrastructure projects, things like High Speed Two | :10:29. | :10:30. | |
the Thames highway tunnels and housing projects, like this, | :10:31. | :10:32. | |
which are going forward. Even though there are some areas | :10:33. | :10:42. | |
which are a bit more vulnerable to Brexit, | :10:43. | :10:45. | |
like the commercial sector, office building, overall we're | :10:46. | :10:47. | |
looking at strong growth over In fact, the sector is expected | :10:48. | :10:49. | |
to grow an annual average rate That means, in terms of jobs, | :10:50. | :10:53. | |
over the same period 19,000 The outlook may be rather optimistic | :10:54. | :10:59. | |
in terms of London's construction sector but there are still inhabit | :11:00. | :11:21. | |
risks to do with Brexit. If you speak to the foreman here, | :11:22. | :11:24. | |
he will tell you it's all about how he keeps | :11:25. | :11:27. | |
and maintains his workforce, And he is far from alone, | :11:28. | :11:29. | |
on this site two thirds Across the sector in London, around | :11:30. | :11:33. | |
40% of builders come from abroad. That's way with Brexit | :11:34. | :11:38. | |
and the threat of strict migration controls this developer is investing | :11:39. | :11:40. | |
much more intriguing, training local London | :11:41. | :11:42. | |
graduates like Conor. There's a lot of uncertainties | :11:43. | :11:43. | |
and it's all about being pro-active. I mean, you can wait and see | :11:44. | :11:46. | |
what tomorrow brings or you can act If others follow and invest more | :11:47. | :11:49. | |
and more in training, it'll make a significant change | :11:50. | :11:53. | |
to an industry that has enjoyed a constant stream of cheap | :11:54. | :11:56. | |
and skilled labour from abroad. It will also represent | :11:57. | :11:58. | |
a significant cost. For us, this is about | :11:59. | :12:00. | |
investing in the future We've talked a lot about the skilled | :12:01. | :12:02. | |
labour shortage and how the uncertainty Brexit | :12:03. | :12:06. | |
is going to affect us. For us, this is the right | :12:07. | :12:08. | |
thing to do, we need to invest in the future | :12:09. | :12:10. | |
of the construction industry. So, for now there is plenty of work | :12:11. | :12:12. | |
about and as they get their heads down with the job at hand it'll be | :12:13. | :12:16. | |
for others to answer the many Which big projects will replace | :12:17. | :12:19. | |
the current ones once How much of a skills shortfall | :12:20. | :12:25. | |
Brexit will cause and will more From prehistoric tools | :12:26. | :12:29. | |
to the skeletons of plague victims - Just some of the incredible | :12:30. | :12:41. | |
discoveries by archaeologists during Now there's a chance for Londoners | :12:42. | :12:43. | |
to have a closer look at the hundreds of artefacts | :12:44. | :12:47. | |
being unearthed, which are going on display at the Museum | :12:48. | :12:50. | |
of London Docklands. Digging deep beneath | :12:51. | :12:52. | |
the capital's busiest streets - as Crossrail's tunnels have been | :12:53. | :13:00. | |
created, layers of London's history Now, hundreds of these artefacts | :13:01. | :13:02. | |
are going on display at the Museum This exhibition is telling | :13:03. | :13:07. | |
the story of what's been going on behind the Crossrail works | :13:08. | :13:14. | |
for the last few years. We have over 2000 years | :13:15. | :13:16. | |
of human habitation here. There are layers and layers | :13:17. | :13:19. | |
of history and a construction project like the Crossrail one | :13:20. | :13:23. | |
will produce huge 200 archaeologists have been working | :13:24. | :13:25. | |
across 40 different sites. Among their finds, fragments | :13:26. | :13:33. | |
from a bison bone and reindeer antler thought to be | :13:34. | :13:36. | |
68,000 years old. Dentures from the 17th century | :13:37. | :13:38. | |
Bedlam burial ground at Liverpool Street and a piece | :13:39. | :13:41. | |
of jaw from a woolly They are animal bones but they've | :13:42. | :13:45. | |
been worked just a little bit about the toe area | :13:46. | :13:52. | |
and they would have been tied to people's feet | :13:53. | :13:55. | |
in the early medieval times. This unfortunate victim | :13:56. | :13:58. | |
of the Black Death was found buried Tests had to be carried out to check | :13:59. | :14:04. | |
the plague hadn't survived We think each individual was wrapped | :14:05. | :14:10. | |
in a cotton shroud or linen shroud. We can tell that from the tiny | :14:11. | :14:20. | |
shroud pins that would The shroud material is disintegrated | :14:21. | :14:22. | |
but these were very careful burials Some of what we now consider | :14:23. | :14:30. | |
precious treasures were actually found in 18th-century cesspits, | :14:31. | :14:33. | |
thrown out as rubbish. What we see is a lot | :14:34. | :14:44. | |
of Chinese porcelain. Probably merchant class people | :14:45. | :14:46. | |
living in the City of London, very Also salvaged, this 19th-century | :14:47. | :14:51. | |
chamberpot from Stepney Green. It seems the Victorians | :14:52. | :14:57. | |
did have a sense of humour. This whole project has | :14:58. | :15:00. | |
taken a lot of close co-oporation between Crossrail | :15:01. | :15:08. | |
engineers and archaeologists. Despite its taking extra | :15:09. | :15:10. | |
time and care, they say We are always intrigued to stop | :15:11. | :15:12. | |
and find out what it is. Anyone digging in London | :15:13. | :15:16. | |
is expecting to find something but maybe not quite as significant | :15:17. | :15:18. | |
as the things we found It always makes the day more | :15:19. | :15:21. | |
exciting when you come across something unusual that | :15:22. | :15:24. | |
you never expected. Let's hope visitors | :15:25. | :15:26. | |
will feel the same way The housing estate in Rainham which | :15:27. | :15:28. | |
cost ?31 million of public money was initially hailed a beacon | :15:29. | :15:40. | |
for new developments. But since 2014 when it was finished, | :15:41. | :15:42. | |
problems with the build and maintenance of the Orchard Village | :15:43. | :15:45. | |
state have become so bad that there are calls for the whole | :15:46. | :15:48. | |
thing to be flattened. Residents living there say | :15:49. | :15:50. | |
the the place is making them ill. Ever since this man moved on to his | :15:51. | :16:07. | |
new home at 1.5 years ago, he has had no end of problems. He has two | :16:08. | :16:13. | |
young children, his daughter has cystic fibrosis. She was exposed to | :16:14. | :16:18. | |
more than stamp and if there is gas coming in then there is that as | :16:19. | :16:23. | |
well. -- she was exposed to mould and tab. In the end, the exposure | :16:24. | :16:31. | |
meant that she contracted a bacterium infection. It is one of a | :16:32. | :16:38. | |
long list of problems. There are Greeks and installation. This is his | :16:39. | :16:43. | |
neighbour's property and there is widespread mould. There are | :16:44. | :16:49. | |
proliferated fights, -- there are proliferated fights. There are more | :16:50. | :16:58. | |
than 380 homes you. It cost 80 million to build and more than 30 | :16:59. | :17:05. | |
million is taxpayers money. But residents blame the housing groups | :17:06. | :17:07. | |
that are now responsible for the site. Only since last November have | :17:08. | :17:15. | |
they been in charge along with the other company. The housing | :17:16. | :17:21. | |
association blamed the boulders. We want to find out what is wrong with | :17:22. | :17:26. | |
the entire estate. We want to do the job right. It is unfair for people | :17:27. | :17:30. | |
to be living like this, including the elderly and children. What will | :17:31. | :17:35. | |
you do to rectify these substantial problems? I couldn't agree more. | :17:36. | :17:41. | |
They have had a truly awful time. We have done some good players but we | :17:42. | :17:44. | |
want to go back and do the repairs that are needed. -- we have done | :17:45. | :17:52. | |
some repairs. The builders said that they take their responsibilities | :17:53. | :17:55. | |
very seriously and give their absolute commitment to make things | :17:56. | :18:01. | |
right. They say that before they could complete the repairs the | :18:02. | :18:04. | |
housing association took over responsibility for the work. Colin | :18:05. | :18:10. | |
says, unlike other residents, who doesn't want to see the development | :18:11. | :18:17. | |
pulled down and rebuilt. But he does want a decent home to raise his | :18:18. | :18:24. | |
family in as soon as was full. -- as soon as possible. | :18:25. | :18:27. | |
And in the last few minutes we have had a response | :18:28. | :18:30. | |
from Havering Council about this story. | :18:31. | :18:32. | |
They've told us that during their numerous inspections, | :18:33. | :18:33. | |
they did not find any issues that breached buildings regulations | :18:34. | :18:36. | |
From leaving the Navy to following his passion, I will be talking to | :18:37. | :18:49. | |
this artist about working with youth in Brixton and showcasing his latest | :18:50. | :18:53. | |
work in a hotel. Securing and attending | :18:54. | :18:55. | |
an interview these days can be difficult for any job-seeker, | :18:56. | :18:59. | |
but for the unemployed with little work experience | :19:00. | :19:01. | |
it can be intimidating. Now, a Romford barber has teamed up | :19:02. | :19:03. | |
with the local YMCA and Jobcentre to offer free haircuts for young | :19:04. | :19:06. | |
men seeking employment. What difference can a haircut make? | :19:07. | :19:20. | |
This barber had started to offer them to free two young men that have | :19:21. | :19:25. | |
job interviews. I think that it's a case of knowing what potential they | :19:26. | :19:28. | |
have and the potential that they have within them and what they can | :19:29. | :19:32. | |
give to the world. To see them at the stumbling block saddens me. I | :19:33. | :19:38. | |
feel compelled to do something about it. He teamed up with his local | :19:39. | :19:44. | |
Jobcentre to help. A lot of unemployed people have not very much | :19:45. | :19:49. | |
money and even the smallest things like a haircut can help to get | :19:50. | :19:53. | |
through an interview. If you are looking your best and feeling your | :19:54. | :19:56. | |
best, you are more likely to give your best. It is not only because he | :19:57. | :20:05. | |
offers, he gives advice as well. When you answer the phone, he says | :20:06. | :20:12. | |
you have to say, hello, frankly speaking, instead of just bringing | :20:13. | :20:17. | |
buyers in the shop and just do what you're doing. He tripped teaches us | :20:18. | :20:22. | |
life skills. We go over topics like,... We got over topics like | :20:23. | :20:32. | |
posture, but duration. From an employer's standpoint, these things | :20:33. | :20:35. | |
make the difference. They may not give this advice in other areas of | :20:36. | :20:40. | |
their life. It costs me laughing together to them so I give it to | :20:41. | :20:45. | |
them. It costs me nothing to get it to them. | :20:46. | :20:48. | |
Now he went from a marine in the Royal Navy to artist | :20:49. | :20:51. | |
Kieran Robinson's career change has taken him | :20:52. | :20:55. | |
to the Houses of Parliament and to Brixton, where | :20:56. | :20:58. | |
he shared his love of street art with young people. | :20:59. | :21:00. | |
Our arts correspondent Brenda Emmanus caught up | :21:01. | :21:02. | |
Away from the traditional white gallery walls and taking residence | :21:03. | :21:14. | |
in a retro-inspired contemporary Mayfair hotel, pop-artist Lhouette | :21:15. | :21:16. | |
exhibits his latest work, entitled Post-urban Glamour. | :21:17. | :21:26. | |
Quite a coup having the liberty of a really plush hotel | :21:27. | :21:29. | |
It comes down to being able to show your work in lots | :21:30. | :21:35. | |
To be able to show it in 45 is great but it's takes you out | :21:36. | :21:40. | |
of your comfort gallery zone to get to show artwork in | :21:41. | :21:43. | |
Since his first foray into the commercial art world five years ago, | :21:44. | :21:50. | |
the artist has made a name for themselves and with his unique | :21:51. | :21:54. | |
signature fusion of pop and street art. Before committing to yard, who | :21:55. | :22:00. | |
spent significant time in the Navy, how did it influenced your work? | :22:01. | :22:07. | |
Being exposed to the cultures that I was has influenced my work. Also | :22:08. | :22:12. | |
having the military work ethic has helped. People are like the idea of | :22:13. | :22:18. | |
it being a premium lifestyle as an artist but it's quite a lot of hard | :22:19. | :22:23. | |
work. -- it's been a perfume unit lifestyle. This show is a | :22:24. | :22:29. | |
combination of the artist's most innovative pieces. It's his ambition | :22:30. | :22:34. | |
to showbiz his work in eclectic spaces. He has showcased his work in | :22:35. | :22:41. | |
the Houses of Parliament. He has also worked on a estate in Brixton. | :22:42. | :22:46. | |
I grew up in a similar environment. I thought there might be some | :22:47. | :22:50. | |
similarities between our experiences. We set up a big | :22:51. | :22:55. | |
workshop and went through some of the techniques and shirt some ideas | :22:56. | :23:00. | |
and things and how I've got to make a beer. -- and shared some ideas. -- | :23:01. | :23:09. | |
and how I got through my career. World would be good? Take modern | :23:10. | :23:16. | |
would be critical. It comes down to the next. I led showing different | :23:17. | :23:21. | |
places. I would be happy with a myriad. -- I like showing. | :23:22. | :23:25. | |
It's all change for Great Britain's Fed Cup tennis team | :23:26. | :23:27. | |
as Anne Keothavong takes over the reins from Judy Murray. | :23:28. | :23:29. | |
In day one of the tournament, Heather Watson got off to a flying | :23:30. | :23:32. | |
start with a straight sets win over Portuguese opponent | :23:33. | :23:35. | |
Our sports reporter Emma Jones went to meet the new captain | :23:36. | :23:38. | |
Anne Keothavong was once in the world's top 50. | :23:39. | :23:48. | |
Now she's back as captain of Great Britain Fed Cup team. | :23:49. | :23:54. | |
She's taking over from Judy Murray, someone | :23:55. | :23:56. | |
Because, let's face it, I think she's been the most | :23:57. | :24:01. | |
successful tennis coach in this country. | :24:02. | :24:04. | |
She's produced two world number ones in Jamie and Andy, | :24:05. | :24:08. | |
so she knows what she is talking about and she is so passionate | :24:09. | :24:11. | |
about the game and that rubs off on everyone around her. | :24:12. | :24:14. | |
Anne is part of her own tennis dynasty. | :24:15. | :24:27. | |
Her brother, James, recently umpired the men's final | :24:28. | :24:29. | |
at the Australian open and, having recently added to the family, | :24:30. | :24:31. | |
she says, like so many working mums, it can be tough to find a balance. | :24:32. | :24:35. | |
When I was in Australia earlier this year, I must admit for the first | :24:36. | :24:38. | |
week I cried every day because I missed her much. | :24:39. | :24:41. | |
I take comfort in the fact that I'm not the only woman who is working | :24:42. | :24:44. | |
and not the only woman out there who has to occasionally spend | :24:45. | :24:47. | |
British women's tennis seems to be on the up, | :24:48. | :24:55. | |
Johanna Konta is currently ranked tenth in the world. | :24:56. | :24:57. | |
She says one of her main aims is to inspire more people to take up | :24:58. | :25:01. | |
You always want to leave the sport in a better place | :25:02. | :25:04. | |
than when you started, I think that's the aim of every | :25:05. | :25:07. | |
athlete, whatever discipline they do, I'm no different | :25:08. | :25:09. | |
and hopefully I'll encourage a few more girls to pick up a racket. | :25:10. | :25:16. | |
The short-term goal, with Konta playing and Anne Keothavong | :25:17. | :25:21. | |
as captain, is to get further in the Fed Cup than | :25:22. | :25:24. | |
The cold-weather wasn't bothering with the indoor tennis. It is much, | :25:25. | :25:44. | |
much colder today. Every army managed about 5 degrees in the city. | :25:45. | :25:51. | |
This was the work at like that. You can see why. A huge expanse of | :25:52. | :25:57. | |
client. We have seen 11 degrees across the western side of wheels. | :25:58. | :26:03. | |
Temperatures will file away through this evening and overnight. They | :26:04. | :26:10. | |
could be the odd winter we every. That includes the odd icy patch to | :26:11. | :26:15. | |
look out for tomorrow. Scraping the eyes of the cars tomorrow morning. | :26:16. | :26:21. | |
Tomorrow will be similar. Cloudy and cold for the most of us. Some of, | :26:22. | :26:31. | |
cited Les Gray but still a lot of cloud. Mostly to the east of London, | :26:32. | :26:37. | |
some shoulders and the rest staying dry. -- some shoulders. Overnight | :26:38. | :26:46. | |
tomorrow, the show was most actually start to drift further west. You can | :26:47. | :26:51. | |
see a light dusting of snow in if you places towards Friday morning. | :26:52. | :26:56. | |
Treacherous on some untreated roads and pavements. Friday, similar | :26:57. | :27:06. | |
weather. 2-4 C. The cold-weather will continue into the weekend. If | :27:07. | :27:14. | |
you head for the rest, it looks mostly tried but still really cold. | :27:15. | :27:16. | |
Jeremy Corbyn has accused the Government of offering | :27:17. | :27:20. | |
Conservative-run Surrey County Council a sweetheart deal | :27:21. | :27:22. | |
in exchange for dropping a planned council tax rise. | :27:23. | :27:24. | |
A text outlining the deal was allegedly sent to the wrong person. | :27:25. | :27:35. | |
I'll be back later during the ten o'clock news, but for now | :27:36. | :27:41. | |
from everyone on the team, have a lovely evening. | :27:42. | :27:43. | |
when farmers leave their daily routines behind... | :27:44. | :28:17. | |
Right, here we come, Dorset! ..for a show day. | :28:18. | :28:20. | |
When author Sir Terry Pratchett died, | :28:21. | :28:35. | |
They called on Death to give Terry back. | :28:36. | :28:42. |
