:01:50. > :01:55.Good evening. Those fighters still loyal to Colonel Gaddafi have been
:01:56. > :01:58.warned to surrender by Saturday or face all-out assault. The National
:01:58. > :02:03.Transitional Council says talks for a peaceful resolution are going on,
:02:03. > :02:09.but time is running out for the remaining Gaddafi loyalists mainly
:02:09. > :02:13.in his home town of Sirte. The Council's military chief said zero
:02:13. > :02:21.hour was quickly approachingment for the latest tonight we join
:02:21. > :02:24.Jermey Bowen in Tripoli. The -- thanks. Anti-Gaddafi forces
:02:24. > :02:27.say they have a good idea about where the Colonel may be hiding.
:02:27. > :02:32.They're not saying whether or not they think he's in Sirte, which is
:02:32. > :02:36.a town of about 100,000 people, but it is their next big military
:02:36. > :02:39.target. They're advancing on two fronts from the east and from the
:02:39. > :02:45.west. Our correspondent, Paul Wood is with them and he's just sent
:02:45. > :02:53.this report. Village by village, the rebels
:02:53. > :02:56.advance towards Sirte. They plan to be there by Saturday to back up the
:02:56. > :03:02.leadership's ultimatum. Thousands of Gaddafi loyalists there have
:03:02. > :03:07.until then to surrender. Or the rebels will attack.
:03:07. > :03:11.This settlement still flies the old regime's flags. The rebels soon see
:03:11. > :03:16.to that. This is the Western approach to Sirte, there's a
:03:16. > :03:19.pinscher movement, they're coming from the east too.
:03:19. > :03:24.The rebels have been leapfroging forward, another 20 or so miles
:03:24. > :03:29.over the past day. This is the most forward position they have. If they
:03:29. > :03:34.go over the brow of the hill behind me, they say, they invite incoming
:03:34. > :03:39.fire from the Loyalist forces. And though the loyalists are abandoning
:03:39. > :03:45.their possessions, there seems to be no panicky flight. NATO even
:03:45. > :03:52.believes Colonel Gaddafi is directing things. The Gaddafi
:03:52. > :03:57.troops that we see are not in total disarray. They are retreating in an
:03:57. > :04:03.ordererly -- orderly fashion. It's the ability that he still displays
:04:03. > :04:07.to command and control troops' movement and weapon movements and
:04:08. > :04:12.the deployment of these weapons. The rebels aren't sure that Colonel
:04:13. > :04:18.Gaddafi's really in charge. Members of his family have already fled to
:04:18. > :04:22.Algeria. His whereabouts are unknown. Even so, they worry that
:04:22. > :04:26.die-hardz in Sirte will never give up, because they have blood on
:04:26. > :04:32.their hands. We don't expect that Gaddafi has soldiers any more. It's
:04:32. > :04:39.some of the troops that have no way, unless they fight. They know that
:04:39. > :04:43.they killed a lot of civilian peoples. In villages which have
:04:43. > :04:48.just changed hands, they're preparing for the Muslim feast of
:04:48. > :04:52.Eid. Over the holiday, there'll be more talks with Sirte's tribal
:04:52. > :04:56.leaders. The rebels say a deal is being blocked by Loyalist troops
:04:56. > :05:01.and perhaps, if NATO's right, by Colonel Gaddafi himself. What's the
:05:01. > :05:09.truth, there are just a few days left to avoid a bloody battle for
:05:09. > :05:13.Sirte. Those events around Sirte show this
:05:13. > :05:18.is not over and it won't be until Colonel Gaddafi is off the scene.
:05:18. > :05:22.Here in Tripoli, it was calm most of the day. It's getting lively now.
:05:22. > :05:25.A lot of traffic on the streets. People getting excited about the
:05:25. > :05:32.impending Eid festival tomorrow and even a bit of celebratory fire
:05:32. > :05:36.going up into the air from heavy weapons down there near martyrs
:05:36. > :05:42.square. Ordinary people here have, I think, been trying to work out
:05:42. > :05:50.just what exactly normal life could be without the dominating presence
:05:50. > :05:55.of Colonel Gaddafi and his family. Suspicion and insecurity are never
:05:55. > :06:05.far away in Tripoli, so it's remarkable how calm the city seems
:06:05. > :06:05.
:06:05. > :06:09.now. This is a way into Tajoura. Sorry mop-head say the children,
:06:09. > :06:13.using a nickname inspired by Colonel Gaddafi's hair, that might
:06:13. > :06:17.have put their parents in jail two weeks ago. So the Libyans are now
:06:17. > :06:25.ready to be part of the world? are all the time part of the world.
:06:25. > :06:31.We never been out, but someone left us out. But not everyone's happy.
:06:31. > :06:37.This woman wants her salary. There's two million in there, she
:06:37. > :06:42.says. We need a good system. We're tired. Everyone else queuing at the
:06:43. > :06:52.bank, all state employees, want to get paid. Her impatience angers the
:06:52. > :06:59.men. "shut up. Don't talk like that. We'll get everything in the end."
:06:59. > :07:02.He says. "I won't shut up. I'm hungry. I want my money." She
:07:03. > :07:10.retreating to an alleyway. It's been three months since we were
:07:10. > :07:15.paid. The women were sympathetic. "I'm divorced. My salary's 400.
:07:15. > :07:19.I've got three children. They can't wait." The men said they were happy
:07:19. > :07:23.with a diet of revolutionary euphoria. We don't need money. We
:07:23. > :07:28.don't need water, just freedom. Other Arab revolutionaries in
:07:28. > :07:32.Tunisia and Egypt were just as happy when they toppled their
:07:32. > :07:37.dictators. More than six months later their excitement about the
:07:37. > :07:41.future has been lost in life's daily struggle. Freedom from fear
:07:41. > :07:47.makes you feel rich if you're just out of prison like Mahmoud Abdullah
:07:47. > :07:49.Al-Tarhouni. He was arrested in early March after organising the
:07:49. > :07:55.first anti-Gaddafi demonstrations here. He doesn't want Colonel
:07:55. > :08:00.Gaddafi dead. He wants him to see their triumph. I want him to see
:08:00. > :08:07.how Libya will be without him, without his sons. We will building
:08:07. > :08:10.this country. I want him see that. During the last six months, these
:08:10. > :08:14.streets were always tense, sometimes frightening, and
:08:14. > :08:18.sometimes very violent. Now you can feel the relief that the Colonel
:08:18. > :08:22.has gone. But they face really big challenges, because for 40 years
:08:22. > :08:27.Colonel Gaddafi has taken away all the conventional institutions of
:08:27. > :08:32.government and that means that in many ways, they have to start again
:08:32. > :08:36.from scratch. That is going to be difficult. I don't think those
:08:36. > :08:40.strains are too far below the surface, as we saw today. There
:08:40. > :08:45.could be some relief in sight for those people who at least want
:08:45. > :08:49.their salaries paid. The UN has announced that nearly �1 billion of
:08:49. > :08:52.Libyan dinars, which were printed in Britain, but never sent because
:08:52. > :08:55.of sanctions, will now be delivered to this country.
:08:55. > :08:59.Jeremy, the day's brought some interesting news, interesting
:08:59. > :09:07.details about how some members of the Gaddafi family made it to
:09:07. > :09:10.Algeria. Yes. It seems that there were six armoured Mercedes
:09:10. > :09:14.limousines that sped through the central part of this country. They
:09:14. > :09:19.came from an area which was controlled by one of the biggest
:09:19. > :09:23.tribes. They drove down to the Algeria border and there they were
:09:23. > :09:27.given sanctuary and there Colonel Gaddafi's daughter gave birth
:09:27. > :09:33.shortly after, to a baby daughter. I think that what is significant
:09:33. > :09:36.about all of that is the fact that they were able to move in such a
:09:36. > :09:41.conspicuous convoy through a large chunk of the central part of Libya
:09:41. > :09:45.and going down to the frontier, which shows that the rebel forces
:09:45. > :09:49.here still have quite a bit to do, before they can control this very
:09:49. > :09:52.large country. Jeremy, thank you very much. Jermey
:09:52. > :09:56.Bowen, our Middle East editor in Tripoli.
:09:56. > :10:01.Some of the day's other news: A shortage of new homes, rising
:10:01. > :10:05.prices and tough lending conditions are likely to leave a generation
:10:05. > :10:08.locked out of the property market, according to the National Housing
:10:08. > :10:12.Federation. It predicts offer the next decade, homeowner shn in
:10:12. > :10:18.England will fall to the lowest level since the 1980s. Hue pim has
:10:19. > :10:23.the details. Building homeownership, some would
:10:23. > :10:26.see that as a cornerstone of the economy N England, at least, there
:10:26. > :10:30.are predictions a downward trend will continue. Ten years ago, more
:10:30. > :10:35.than 70% of householders owned their own home. Now the figure has
:10:35. > :10:39.fall ton 67%. Today it was forecast that would slide below 64% in ten
:10:39. > :10:45.years' timement There are two key questions which have been raised
:10:45. > :10:49.again in the housing debate: The first one focuses on prices and
:10:49. > :10:55.access to mortgages, are homes affordable? House prices have
:10:55. > :10:59.fallen, 18% since the end of the boom in 2007. Whereas the average
:10:59. > :11:06.first time buyer deposit was 10% then, nowadays 20% is the average
:11:06. > :11:10.required by lenders. That's proved to be a nightmare for grant and
:11:10. > :11:14.Megan. With a young family they're December froit buy a home W high
:11:14. > :11:18.rents and other bills to pay, they can't save enough for a deposit.
:11:18. > :11:23.Everything is too expensive for us to allow that extra bit of money to
:11:23. > :11:26.not be used on everything that we've already got. So it's all
:11:26. > :11:34.needed, every penny. It's just gone before we even think about putting
:11:34. > :11:38.something away. What -- one of Mrs Thatcher's aims was to boost
:11:38. > :11:42.homeownership. This presentation marked the millionth Council house
:11:42. > :11:45.sale. After Labour came to power Tony Blair and John Prescott set
:11:45. > :11:49.ambitious targets for house building, which proved hard to meet.
:11:49. > :11:53.The question is still being asked - are we building enough new housing?
:11:53. > :11:57.In the year before the banking crisis, nearly 170,000 homes were
:11:57. > :12:01.built in England. But in the latest financial year, that had slumped to
:12:01. > :12:05.not much more than 100,000. Planning regulations have come
:12:05. > :12:09.under scrutiny. Rural campaigners say you need them to protect the
:12:09. > :12:12.green belt, but house builders say they've slowed up new development.
:12:12. > :12:15.The sector as a whole has sufficient land on which to build
:12:15. > :12:18.at current levels. If the Government wish us to step up
:12:18. > :12:23.activity, to meet the demand that's out there, then the land supply
:12:23. > :12:26.coming through the planning process will have to increase. So are we
:12:26. > :12:31.becoming too obsessed with homeownership and building more
:12:31. > :12:34.just so people can own their own house or flat? Is it sensible to
:12:34. > :12:37.expand mortgage borrowing? There are some countries, France and the
:12:37. > :12:42.Netherlands, for example, where a smaller proportion of people than
:12:42. > :12:46.the UK own their own home and more are happy to rent. We need people
:12:46. > :12:49.to be more accepting of renting. For that to happen, we need rented
:12:49. > :12:53.accommodation to be better suited to people looking for a long-term
:12:53. > :12:57.home, more security and higher quaplt of both the property and the
:12:57. > :13:00.management of the property. Ministers say they are trying to
:13:00. > :13:10.boost house building, but it's clear there are deep-set problems
:13:10. > :13:11.
:13:11. > :13:14.A Royal Marine from 42 Commando has been killed in Afghanistan. The
:13:14. > :13:19.marine was hit by a roadside bomb while on foot patrol in the Nahr-e-
:13:19. > :13:21.Saraj District of Helmand Province. His family has been informed.
:13:21. > :13:23.A cabinet minister has been photographed leaving Downing Street
:13:23. > :13:29.holding a confidential document welcoming the decision by President
:13:29. > :13:30.Karzai of Afghanistan not to seek re-election. The briefing paper,
:13:30. > :13:33.carried by International Development Secretary, Andrew
:13:33. > :13:43.Mitchell, said the UK should publicly and privately approve the
:13:43. > :13:44.
:13:44. > :13:47.decision. His department said the paper was not highly classified.
:13:47. > :13:50.Violence is continuing in Syria, despite President Assad's recent
:13:50. > :13:53.pledge at the United Nations that the crackdown had ended. Government
:13:53. > :13:58.forces are reported to have killed at least seven people in the latest
:13:58. > :14:01.protests, including a 13-year-old boy. A report by Amnesty
:14:01. > :14:08.International claims that at least 88 people have died in detention in
:14:08. > :14:10.the past four months and that torture is widely used. Our special
:14:10. > :14:17.correspondent Allan Little has the story, which does contain some
:14:17. > :14:25.strong images. Despite the danger the protests go
:14:25. > :14:30.on. This is Damascus today, the Muslim holy day of Ei d but that
:14:30. > :14:35.did not stop the killing. In the city of deria security forces
:14:35. > :14:40.opened fire. Opposition groups say four were killed. Three others died
:14:40. > :14:45.elsewhere in Syria. But there is also killing in secret.
:14:45. > :14:50.Amnesty International say 88 have died in police detention, often
:14:50. > :14:55.after torture. This was a 43-year- old doctor, he was arrested in May
:14:55. > :15:04.after a visit to America. A fellow doctor saw him in detention. Three
:15:04. > :15:12.days later he was dead. His eyes were gouged. His genitals were
:15:12. > :15:17.mutilated. Electrical shocks over his legs and feet. This was one of
:15:17. > :15:21.seven men who denounced the regime at this demonstration in May. He
:15:21. > :15:25.was arrested the next day. He was dead ten days later. His face was
:15:25. > :15:30.so badly disfigured that his family recognised him only from a tattoo
:15:30. > :15:34.on his arm. Amnesty International's obtained video and photographic
:15:34. > :15:38.evidence taken by the families of the dead after the bodies were
:15:38. > :15:41.returned to them. We have seen some of it, too. It shows mutilations
:15:42. > :15:48.and injuries so graphic, so appalling, that we can't broadcast
:15:48. > :15:50.them. We have at least 3,000 names, said to be 12-15,000 detained in
:15:50. > :16:00.the country at the moment, we know torture has been widespread over
:16:00. > :16:00.
:16:00. > :16:04.years and it's got much, much worse. Most people are held in detention
:16:04. > :16:09.incommunicado. It's likely more people, sadly, have died in custody
:16:09. > :16:14.as well. Ten of the 88 in today's report were under 18. This was a
:16:14. > :16:19.15-year-old, he was arrested in April. A fellow detainee later
:16:19. > :16:22.released saw him beaten by security officials, and covered in blood.

:16:27. > :16:30.loudly and pleading for help they hit him with a gun on the back of
:16:30. > :16:35.his neck and he collapsed. Afterwards he was hit with a sharp
:16:35. > :16:40.metal sword. He was hit repeatedly on his back. The boy fell
:16:40. > :16:46.unconscious from the severity of the beating.
:16:46. > :16:50.His body was returned to his family in June. His funeral stirred grief
:16:50. > :16:54.and rage, despite western condemnation and strengthening

:17:56. > :18:00.The storm left destruction in its wake, and massive delays, too.
:18:00. > :18:04.Nearly 14,000 flights were cancelled. All New York's airports
:18:04. > :18:06.were closed and now airlines are trying to reschedule two days of
:18:06. > :18:12.cancelled flights at a time when planes are already full because
:18:12. > :18:16.it's the end of the summer holidays. Teachers Daniel and Sian have been
:18:16. > :18:20.stuck in New York since their flight was cancelled on Sunday,
:18:20. > :18:25.packing and repacking their bags. Now they've missed the first day of
:18:25. > :18:32.school. We were very anxious and frustrated and we have spent the
:18:32. > :18:35.last few days on the telephone to Virgin, filling in appeal forms
:18:35. > :18:38.online, desperately trying to get an earlier flight. It's a real pain
:18:38. > :18:47.not not being there on the first day when everything gets up and
:18:47. > :18:51.running. But overall, the fact that we are going back soon means that
:18:51. > :18:55.relatively speaking it should be OK. New York is a favourite destination
:18:55. > :18:59.for British holiday-makers. There could be up to 10,000 here right
:18:59. > :19:04.now. The airlines are putting on extra flights back to the UK to
:19:04. > :19:10.clear the backlog, but for those stranded by Irene the wait feels
:19:10. > :19:14.too long. Lyn Spencer is moving hotels in Manhattan yet again.
:19:14. > :19:19.She's been told she can't get a flight to the UK until September
:19:19. > :19:25.10th. Lyn's far from home and feeling isolated. I've been a
:19:25. > :19:29.little bit tearful two or three occasions because when you are not
:19:29. > :19:32.sure, when you can't get through to people, when you are waiting for e-
:19:32. > :19:36.mails or waiting for a phone call and it doesn't necessarily come,
:19:36. > :19:42.then you do get a little - you start to panic a little bit. First
:19:42. > :19:48.of all you think it will be OK, but as time passes and then you think
:19:48. > :19:54.you might be here for another ten days, it becomes a little bit
:19:54. > :19:57.worrying. Along the east coast Americans are still reeling from
:19:57. > :20:07.Irene's impact. Cancelled flights are among the many consequences of
:20:07. > :20:07.
:20:07. > :20:10.the storm's wrath. Police searching for a registered sex offender,

:21:15. > :21:18.has been reflecting on her failure to win gold at the World Athletics
:21:18. > :21:22.Championships in South Korea. She failed to retain her heptathlon
:21:22. > :21:25.title after what she called a big disaster in the javelin. Team GB
:21:25. > :21:33.had been set a target of seven medals at the championships. Our
:21:33. > :21:39.sports editor David Bond considers how realistic that now looks.

:21:46. > :21:51.to be a formality, another step on the road to Olympic gold next
:21:51. > :21:56.summer. This could decide the gold medal... It didn't work out that
:21:56. > :21:59.way. Having failed to build up a big enough lead on day one, she
:22:00. > :22:08.produced a poor performance in the javelin, throwing way short of her
:22:08. > :22:13.best. That gave Tatyana Chernova a huge lead going into the 800 metres.
:22:13. > :22:17.Ennis needed to beat the Russian by nine seconds to win gold. Despite a
:22:17. > :22:25.brave run, Ennis had to settle for silver. I am not going to beat
:22:25. > :22:31.myself up too much. It was a strong performance and it was just one -
:22:31. > :22:34.unfortunately I ran poor in it. With expectations high for Britain
:22:34. > :22:38.coming into these championships, Jessica Ennis was one of the firm
:22:38. > :22:43.favourites to win gold. But her silver medal is the latest setback
:22:43. > :22:48.for a team who have so far proved a little disappointing.
:22:48. > :22:53.At the halfway mark of the World Championships Britain are 14th in
:22:53. > :22:57.the medal table, with two silvers and a bronze. But the target was to
:22:57. > :23:05.bring home seven medals and although Britain could yet have a
:23:05. > :23:09.strong finish, it's not going according to plan. That's left
:23:09. > :23:13.coach feeling the heat. Mo Farah narrowly missed out on gold while
:23:13. > :23:18.other strongly tipped athletes have failed to live up to expectations.
:23:18. > :23:26.It's not all bad news, though. Andy Turner won bronze despite finishing
:23:26. > :23:30.fourth because the winner of the the 110 metres hurdles was
:23:30. > :23:34.disqualified. I wouldn't write off our hopes. I think we are going to
:23:34. > :23:39.do well. It's people you don't expect to get the medals here will
:23:39. > :23:43.get the medals. No one talked about me to win a medal out here. So I
:23:43. > :23:47.think we should expect the unexpected. Jessica Ennis didn't
:23:47. > :23:53.take too long to put her disappointment behind her. With the
:23:53. > :24:01.pressure mounting on track Anfield ahead of 2012 they'll hope they'll
