:01:48. > :01:51.Good evening. The biggest ever independent
:01:51. > :01:55.investigation into police conduct is to be carried out following the
:01:55. > :01:58.damning report into the Hillsborough disaster. The police
:01:58. > :02:01.watchdog, the IPCC, will investigate what went wrong on the
:02:01. > :02:07.day in 1989 when 96 Liverpool fans died, and the alleged cover-up
:02:07. > :02:11.afterwards. A report last month revealed more than 100 police
:02:11. > :02:13.statements had been altered. The Director of Public Prosecutions
:02:13. > :02:23.will investigate whether there are grounds to bring criminal charges
:02:23. > :02:27.against officers, such as manslaughter. Judith Moritz reports.
:02:27. > :02:31.Ever since 96 Liverpool fans were fatally crashed at Hillsborough,
:02:31. > :02:35.the families of the people who died have wanted those responsible to be
:02:35. > :02:40.held to account. South Yorkshire police were blamed but no one has
:02:40. > :02:44.ever faced criminal charges. Today, the Director of Public Prosecutions
:02:44. > :02:48.said legal action could now follow. He will investigate whether there
:02:48. > :02:50.is enough new evidence to bring charges, which could include
:02:50. > :02:56.manslaughter. The Independent Police Complaints Commission has
:02:56. > :02:59.also announced its biggest ever investigation. Justice demands that
:02:59. > :03:05.we do whatever is possible to investigate culpability for any
:03:05. > :03:09.offence that may have been committed. And to do so thoroughly
:03:09. > :03:13.and fairly. The wheels of justice are moving slowly, but campaigners
:03:13. > :03:18.are prepared to wait. Britain's worst ever sporting disaster may
:03:18. > :03:23.have happened here more than two decades ago, but it is still
:03:23. > :03:27.playing out today. The bereaved families have been through inquests,
:03:27. > :03:32.inquiries and investigations, but they say it is only now they feel
:03:32. > :03:37.they are getting close to achieving justice. The IPCC will concentrate
:03:37. > :03:43.its investigation on the following points. The amendment of police
:03:43. > :03:47.statements. 116 were changed to remove negative comments about the
:03:47. > :03:50.South Yorkshire force. Who ordered the changes, and he was involved?
:03:50. > :03:55.The supply of misleading information. The allegation that
:03:55. > :03:59.lies were told to the media and MPs in an attempt to shift the blame
:03:59. > :04:01.from the police to the fans. And the actions of police officers
:04:01. > :04:06.immediately after the disaster, including why they checked the
:04:07. > :04:09.blood alcohol levels of the dead and injured. The bereaved, and
:04:09. > :04:14.survivors of Hillsborough, are hopeful that these and other
:04:14. > :04:19.questions will finally be answered. We have had the truth. This is the
:04:19. > :04:23.start of the justice. I believe this is our start of the
:04:23. > :04:27.accountability now. Retired and current police officers could be
:04:27. > :04:32.prosecuted. Around 200 who were working at the match are still
:04:33. > :04:36.serving today. Many more are retired. The IPCC acknowledge that
:04:36. > :04:40.any disciplinary matters cannot apply to anyone who has retired.
:04:40. > :04:44.However, any criminal matters are equally applicable to someone who
:04:44. > :04:48.has retired as to someone who is serving. The Chief Constable of
:04:48. > :04:52.West Yorkshire, Sir Norman Bettison, denies being part of a police
:04:52. > :04:54.cover-up but has announced he will step down early. His role will be
:04:54. > :04:57.examined, along with a new allegation that he tried to
:04:57. > :05:02.interfere with the handling of complaints against him following
:05:02. > :05:07.the recent independent report. The two investigations announced today
:05:07. > :05:10.may not be the only consequence of that report. Some families also
:05:10. > :05:17.want new inquests to be held. The Attorney General is still
:05:17. > :05:22.considering that. Mark Easton is here. These are two
:05:22. > :05:25.massive investigations. Why now? The IPCC, in a way, has gone
:05:25. > :05:35.further than many might have expected, both in the remit of the
:05:35. > :05:38.inquiry, very broad, and also in the tone of what they said today.
:05:38. > :05:43.What is really at stake here is the credibility and the legitimacy of
:05:43. > :05:46.both the police and the body that oversees it, the IPCC. And I think
:05:46. > :05:51.there is an awareness that unless they can do something to restore
:05:51. > :05:56.public confidence, there really is a significant risk are there. I
:05:56. > :05:59.think it is almost broader than that, actually, because the
:05:59. > :06:02.Independent Hillsborough report, in a way, was a criticism of the
:06:02. > :06:06.checks and balances that are supposed to be there to keep our
:06:06. > :06:09.institutional house in order. We had a judicial inquiry,
:06:09. > :06:14.parliamentary scrutiny, supposedly independent oversight, and yet we
:06:14. > :06:19.know that the truth did not come out. There is the smell of a cover-
:06:19. > :06:24.up. There is the ghastly fact that the innocent were defiled. We see
:06:24. > :06:28.that again and again in recent times, with the press, police, the
:06:28. > :06:32.City, and now the Jimmy Savile affair as well. It is almost as
:06:32. > :06:36.though Britain is needing to cleanse itself. It is digging
:06:36. > :06:41.around in the mud of its recent history, trying to expose
:06:41. > :06:43.wrongdoers who perhaps the thought they were going to get away with it
:06:43. > :06:47.because of the passage of time. And they are about to discover that
:06:47. > :06:50.they are not. The police are now pursuing 340
:06:50. > :06:54.separate lines of enquiry relating to the Jimmy Savile scandal. They
:06:54. > :06:57.are also talking to 40 people who allege they were abused by him. The
:06:57. > :07:00.BBC has announced it is launching two inquiries, one into why a BBC
:07:00. > :07:04.Newsnight investigation into Savile was shelved last year, and another
:07:04. > :07:07.into whether the culture and practice at the BBC at the time
:07:07. > :07:15.enabled Savile to carry out the sexual abuse of children. Here's
:07:15. > :07:18.David Sillito. Hundreds of lines of inquiry,
:07:18. > :07:23.dozens saying they were abused by Jimmy Savile, and others now seeing
:07:23. > :07:27.events in a new light. In 1990, Jim fixed it for a young Julie
:07:27. > :07:32.Fernandez. 22 years later, she recalls how uncomfortable she felt
:07:32. > :07:37.when she met Jimmy Savile. He is a predator, so it was done very
:07:37. > :07:42.cleverly. It was in a studio, a room full of busy people. His hand
:07:42. > :07:47.was on my leg, my arm, my back. It was too intimate and lingered for
:07:47. > :07:52.too many seconds. It felt wrong. response, the head of the BBC
:07:52. > :07:57.appeared before the cameras today. The first thing he had to say...
:07:57. > :08:02.profound and heartfelt apology on behalf of the BBC to every victim.
:08:02. > :08:07.It is the victims, these women who were subject to criminal actions,
:08:07. > :08:10.who must be central in our thoughts. They are now going to be two
:08:10. > :08:14.separate inquiries. One into the culture and practices at the BBC
:08:14. > :08:19.over the last few decades. Another more specifically looking at
:08:19. > :08:24.Newsnight. It was investigating Jimmy Savile. Why did not broadcast
:08:24. > :08:29.the report? After Jimmy Savile died, I was part of a Newsnight team that
:08:29. > :08:32.investigated claims of sexual abuse. In a report last night, a reference
:08:32. > :08:35.to that investigation, saying they had simply set out to look at the
:08:35. > :08:40.allegations. No mention of the matter of proving institutional
:08:40. > :08:44.failure, a key reason it was said to have been dropped. Had George
:08:44. > :08:48.Entwistle, head of TV at the time, influenced the decision? He had
:08:48. > :08:52.been told of the investigation but he says he did not ask questions.
:08:52. > :08:58.The key thing was to be absolutely clear about not being in a position
:08:58. > :09:03.of looking in any sense as if I was trying to put any pressure on a
:09:03. > :09:06.proper BBC News investigation. Meanwhile, speaking on 5 Live, the
:09:06. > :09:11.Deputy Prime Minister expressed what many are thinking. I just
:09:11. > :09:14.cannot understand how this remained hidden for so long. They're just
:09:14. > :09:20.must have been so many people who knew what was going on, in
:09:20. > :09:25.hospitals, the BBC, maybe in the police. I keep asking myself, why
:09:25. > :09:28.did this remain buried for so long? The police say the facts about
:09:28. > :09:33.Jimmy Savile now speak for themselves. The questions that
:09:33. > :09:36.arise from that are only just beginning to be addressed.
:09:36. > :09:39.Two energy companies have announced an increase in the cost of gas and
:09:39. > :09:43.electricity from next month. 11.5 million customers will have to pay
:09:43. > :09:47.more. NPower says its bills will go up by around 9% and British Gas,
:09:47. > :09:56.the UK's biggest supplier, will raise its prices by 6%. Here's Hugh
:09:56. > :09:59.Pym. First it was British Gas, with an
:09:59. > :10:05.�80 increase next month for the average gas and electricity bill.
:10:05. > :10:09.And then NPower with a �109 price hike, burning another hole in
:10:09. > :10:13.customers'' wallets. The companies blame the rising cost of gas
:10:13. > :10:18.supplies and the need to invest more in new sources of energy.
:10:18. > :10:21.could say, why not sell energy at a loss through the winter? If we did,
:10:21. > :10:25.we would not be able to invest in jobs, would not be able to bring
:10:25. > :10:29.new sources of energy to Britain, would not be able to help customers
:10:29. > :10:33.in their homes with energy efficiency. The explanations are no
:10:33. > :10:37.consolation for this retired couple who are in poor health. They have
:10:37. > :10:43.been struggling with the bills, so news of next month's price rise has
:10:43. > :10:47.not gone down well. The pills keep going up. I think the companies are
:10:47. > :10:52.greedy anyway. They made a lot of profit. It is profit, profit,
:10:52. > :10:56.profit, but they do not give anything back to the people. So how
:10:56. > :11:01.do consumer prices relate to the cost of energy? The regulator,
:11:01. > :11:05.Ofgem, published this chart. A few years ago household bills tracked
:11:05. > :11:09.wholesale costs. More recently, the gap has widened, with critics
:11:09. > :11:12.claiming that prices never fall as much as they should. Ministers said
:11:12. > :11:15.today's announcements were very unwelcome and they would press on
:11:15. > :11:20.with plans to reform the energy market. The Chancellor urged
:11:20. > :11:23.companies to think again about the increases. The companies say one
:11:23. > :11:27.reason for raising consumer prices is the need to cover the future
:11:27. > :11:31.cost of upgrading Britain's ageing energy infrastructure. They will
:11:31. > :11:36.need to pay their share of the bills for modernising gas and
:11:36. > :11:39.electricity transmission networks. The industry also says the cost of
:11:39. > :11:43.Government green energy policies has to be passed on to consumers.
:11:43. > :11:46.The push for a lower carbon economy, as far as the energy sector is
:11:47. > :11:50.concerned, is certainly a reason for the increase is that we have
:11:50. > :11:54.seen and we are seeing. That is a combination of legislation from the
:11:54. > :11:58.UK and also from the EU, all of which is adding to the overall
:11:58. > :12:02.costs the industry faces. Households will be trying to work
:12:02. > :12:06.out how to cope with their energy costs. British Gas and NPower have
:12:06. > :12:10.Scott -- followed Scottish & Southern bid price hikes and other
:12:10. > :12:13.suppliers seem certain to follow. There's news tonight that Royal
:12:13. > :12:17.Bank of Scotland's proposed sale of more than 300 branches is off. The
:12:17. > :12:26.buyer, Santander, has pulled out of the deal. Hugh Pym is now with us.
:12:26. > :12:31.Hugh, what happened? The deal was first agreed more than two years
:12:31. > :12:35.ago, RBS agreed to sell the branches to Zentan dare for 1.6 �5
:12:35. > :12:38.billion. It had to do so under the use state aid rules because it had
:12:38. > :12:43.to cut its size because it had received a government bail out.
:12:43. > :12:46.Tonight, dealers off, leaving customers up in the air. They
:12:46. > :12:50.thought they were moving to Santander and now they are not. And
:12:50. > :12:53.the same with over 200,000 small business customers. It leaves RBS
:12:53. > :12:58.with a big challenge, to find another buyer before the deadline
:12:58. > :13:02.at the end of next year. Why has it happened? Well, a bit of confusion
:13:02. > :13:04.over that. Santander has said there were delays and should have
:13:04. > :13:12.happened last year, should have happened this year, and then
:13:12. > :13:15.another delay until next year. So they are pulling out. RBS are
:13:15. > :13:19.saying probably not too many IT problems, as has been suggested.
:13:19. > :13:29.They were surprised and disappointed by the timing.

:13:33. > :13:39.The Nobel Peace Prize has been awarded to the EU. The commission

:14:18. > :14:21.morning, I did not expected to be such a good day. It was with great
:14:21. > :14:27.emotion that I received the news, the award of the Nobel Peace Prize
:14:27. > :14:31.to the European Union. The idea of European Union's grew out of the
:14:31. > :14:34.barbarism of World War II. Shared institutions, open borders and a
:14:34. > :14:40.single market were intended to prevent war from ever returning to
:14:40. > :14:42.the Continent. When the Berlin Wall came down in 1989, the EU acted as
:14:42. > :14:47.a beacon for democracy for countries that had been under
:14:47. > :14:53.Soviet rule. But the Nobel committee's decision will puzzle
:14:53. > :14:57.some. In the Balkans, the EU failed to act effectively to save lives.
:14:57. > :15:02.think they are making a political statement that they think that the
:15:02. > :15:08.EU has produced peace in Europe. Many would argue that NATO, the
:15:08. > :15:13.presence of US troops kept the Soviet Union at bay in a much more
:15:13. > :15:16.efficient way. Today, European unity is being challenged by a debt
:15:16. > :15:21.crisis that is causing you tensions between northern and southern
:15:21. > :15:28.Europe, with almost daily protests against austerity. Spain today
:15:28. > :15:31.observed its national day. It was in sombre mood. Recession and
:15:31. > :15:37.unemployment brought protesters onto the streets. Many questioned
:15:37. > :15:44.whether this was the right moment for a peace prize. Actually, I was
:15:44. > :15:52.surprised. It is nice to support peace, but it's not the best time
:15:52. > :15:57.for Europe to win this Nobel Prize. The European Union, it is great
:15:57. > :16:00.news, but surprising. The Norwegian jury seemed to be trying to bolster
:16:00. > :16:05.Europe in its hour of need, reminding Europeans of what had
:16:05. > :16:08.been achieved. Opinion polls suggest that the EU is unloved by

:20:35. > :20:39.communities were preparing for the worst. In Stonehaven they were
:20:39. > :20:43.doing all they could to stop the rising waters. They have been
:20:43. > :20:48.flooded here before, so they knew the threat was real. It comes
:20:48. > :20:51.through the front of the street, to the back of the street. Then it
:20:51. > :20:55.comes and other houses. The River empties into the sea just a few
:20:56. > :21:00.hundred yards from these homes. As high tide approached at lunchtime,
:21:00. > :21:03.the levels crept up and up. By now, there were more than 30 flood
:21:03. > :21:08.warnings in place across Scotland. Although the rain is now easing,
:21:08. > :21:11.for some communities the danger has not yet passed. That is because
:21:11. > :21:16.there is still a lot of water to come off the hills, which means
:21:16. > :21:20.that the warnings in force tonight apply to the low-lying farmland in
:21:20. > :21:28.Perthshire and Angus. As for Pierre, the next high tide is due around

:21:31. > :21:35.President Obama and the first televised debate in the US
:21:35. > :21:38.elections, it has been the turn of his vice-president to make the
:21:38. > :21:43.latest picture for votes. Joe Biden clashed repeatedly with his
:21:43. > :21:52.Republican challenger, Paul Ryan, over issues including Syria,
:21:52. > :21:56.Afghanistan and the state of the US Kentucky, the home of American
:21:56. > :22:01.thoroughbreds, knows all about neck and neck contests. The race for the
:22:01. > :22:05.White House narrowed after the President's poor form last week.
:22:05. > :22:09.Nervous eyes were on the debate in this state. As it got under way,
:22:09. > :22:15.there was little time for niceties. The veteran Democratic Warrior went
:22:15. > :22:19.in hard, repeatedly swinging at the Republican's young hero. Paul Ryan
:22:19. > :22:23.questioned the wisdom of setting a date to withdraw from Afghanistan.
:22:23. > :22:31.We don't want to embolden our enemies to hold out and take over...
:22:31. > :22:36.That is a bizarre statement. 49 of our allies, Kearney, 49 of our
:22:36. > :22:40.allies signed on to disposition. They argued about jobs, about tax.
:22:40. > :22:45.Paul Ryan singled out the state of the economy in Joe Biden's home
:22:45. > :22:50.town. You know what the employment rate is there? 10%. You know what
:22:50. > :22:54.it was when you guys came in? 8.5%. That is how it is going around
:22:54. > :22:59.America. That is not how it is going, it is going down. Joe Biden
:22:59. > :23:04.more than made up for the President's passivity in his debate.
:23:04. > :23:09.He chortled, he chuckled. He never stopped grinning to hammer home his
:23:09. > :23:16.message that his opponent's arguments were a joke. His contempt,
:23:16. > :23:21.the very strength of his attack, might turn off sum. But he forced
:23:21. > :23:27.his opponent to defend himself. never answers the question. That
:23:27. > :23:32.question was about Syria. We would not refer to the Shah as a reformer
:23:32. > :23:38.when he is killing civilians went using Russian weapons. We would not
:23:38. > :23:44.be outsourcing hour foreign policy to the United Nations, giving
:23:44. > :23:47.Vladimir Putin veto power over our efforts. Spectators seemed divided.
:23:48. > :23:55.Horse races have a clear winner. The same is not true of debates.
:23:55. > :23:59.The important thing is that neither man stumbled, neither man lost. The
:23:59. > :24:06.President needs to put in a flawless performance in the next
:24:06. > :24:10.debate to redeem his reputation as Football, and in the World Cup
:24:10. > :24:13.qualifiers England face San Marino at Wembley. Wales and Scotland met
:24:14. > :24:23.in Cardiff, with the Welsh needing a win after a string of defeats.
:24:23. > :24:27.Fans in Wales can see the Hoping to turn passion into points.
:24:27. > :24:30.Wales and Scotland both knew that only victory could revive their
:24:30. > :24:34.flagging World Cup qualifying campaigns. Wales were particularly
:24:34. > :24:39.desperate. They have lost every game this year. But they spurned
:24:39. > :24:45.early chances. How Scotland made them pay. A swift counter-attack
:24:45. > :24:50.and ruthless finish. James Morrison, sending the Tartan Army into
:24:50. > :24:55.overdrive. But, come the second half, what a turnaround. It was all
:24:55. > :25:00.down to Gareth Bale. First he won and converted a penalty, before, in
:25:00. > :25:08.the dying minutes, a moment of utter genius. From the depths of
:25:08. > :25:13.despair to pure euphoria. Wales had won it. A grim night for Scotland.
:25:13. > :25:17.But a great one for the Wales fans here. Their hopes of qualifying for
:25:17. > :25:20.the World Cup are distant, but still alive. At Wembley, meanwhile,
:25:20. > :25:25.England were hoping to disprove the old adage that there are no easy
:25:25. > :25:30.games at this level. San Marino are officially the joint worst team in
:25:30. > :25:34.international football. But England still had to wait 35 minutes for a
:25:34. > :25:38.breakthrough. Danny Welbeck winning the penalty. Stand-in skipper Wayne
:25:38. > :25:42.Rooney, leading by example. What followed was even better. Danny
:25:42. > :25:47.Welbeck with the nimblest of finishers to put England 2-0 up at
:25:47. > :25:49.the break. From there, they cut loose. Rooney and Welbeck adding to
