:00:13. > :00:16.It's already been blamed for thousands of birth defects

:00:21. > :00:23.The virus is spead by mosquitoes and the World Health Organisation
:00:24. > :00:38.The explosive spread of the virus to a geographical areas is another
:00:39. > :00:42.cause for concern. We'll be reporting from Brazil
:00:43. > :00:45.and we'll be looking at the latest scientific evidence
:00:46. > :00:47.about the Zika virus. Also tonight: At the Hillsborough
:00:48. > :00:50.inquest the coroner tells the jury they must ask whether the 96 victims
:00:51. > :00:52.were killed unlawfully. A British explorer has died just 30

:01:44. > :02:00.the road open. The World Health Organisation has
:02:01. > :02:05.issued a warning that the zika virus, which is being blamed
:02:06. > :02:09.for thousands of birth defects in Brazil, is likely to spread
:02:10. > :02:12.to almost every country in South, There's no vaccine against the virus
:02:13. > :02:17.and pregnant women have been advised to avoid travelling to countries
:02:18. > :02:23.where it's present. The virus is carried by mosquitoes,
:02:24. > :02:25.but experts admit they know very For the latest, let's
:02:26. > :02:38.join our South America In just over a year this
:02:39. > :02:42.little-known virus has arrived here in Brazil, it's out of control
:02:43. > :02:47.taking root here in Brazil and across the Americas. The Zika virus
:02:48. > :02:48.has been linked to debilitating birth defects in children, and as
:02:49. > :02:52.we've been finding out in Rio de birth defects in children, and as
:02:53. > :02:56.Janeiro and in the worst hit areas of northern Brazil, the authorities
:02:57. > :02:58.here are not very well placed to deal with it.
:02:59. > :03:03.Cared for and loved as much as any other child but an increasing number
:03:04. > :03:07.of babies in Brazil are being born with a condition that will affect
:03:08. > :03:13.them for the rest of their lives. Chris Ivory is driving fear into the
:03:14. > :03:16.hearts of thousands of resilient families -- microcephaly. And in
:03:17. > :03:23.many cases mothers may not be aware of it until their baby is born.
:03:24. > :03:25.Linked to the mosquito borne Zika virus the virus is having worldwide
:03:26. > :03:33.repercussions. The explosive spread of Zika virus
:03:34. > :03:36.to new geographical areas with little population immunity is
:03:37. > :03:41.another cause for concern. Especially given the possible link
:03:42. > :03:48.between infection during pregnancy and baby is born with small heads.
:03:49. > :03:52.In the Brazilian city of Salvador, gentle physiotherapy helps ease the
:03:53. > :03:57.pain of muscular problems associated with microcephaly. In addition to
:03:58. > :04:01.smaller than average head size zika may be responsible for a range of
:04:02. > :04:08.debilitating conditions affecting a generation of children and their
:04:09. > :04:11.families. TRANSLATION: It's really hard, he's our first child and we
:04:12. > :04:16.never expected to have a baby that needs special care. His father was
:04:17. > :04:19.still shocked and wanted to remain anonymous and added it was not his
:04:20. > :04:24.fault and the doctors still don't know how the condition will develop.
:04:25. > :04:28.Such is the scale of the problem in the city of Recife, the Army has
:04:29. > :04:33.been deployed to battle the mosquito borne virus. Going door-to-door,
:04:34. > :04:40.soldiers check homes and water supplies amid fears that zika may
:04:41. > :04:43.already be out of control. Indeed, zika has spread like wildfire. Here
:04:44. > :04:48.in Colombia there have been thousands of reported cases and the
:04:49. > :04:52.outbreak covers more than 20 countries. Colombia is even advising
:04:53. > :04:57.women to delay any plans they may have to get pregnant. But it's in
:04:58. > :05:00.Brazil where the health system is already under strain and the added
:05:01. > :05:05.pressure of thousands of visitors coming for this year's Olympics that
:05:06. > :05:09.zika is having the biggest impact. While some countries have issued
:05:10. > :05:13.very strict travel advice, the real question is whether Brazil itself
:05:14. > :05:16.can cope with the scale of the zika out-braked. This is the favela on
:05:17. > :05:20.the edge of the Olympic Park with open sewers and lots of stagnant
:05:21. > :05:26.water, perfect mosquito breeding ground. But all the authorities have
:05:27. > :05:30.said they might do so far as fumigate these areas in the run-up
:05:31. > :05:34.to the Games. This house was demolished and now I'm stuck with
:05:35. > :05:38.this standing pool of water, risking zika and dengue fever, says this
:05:39. > :05:42.woman who has lived here for 20 years. Haven't given us any
:05:43. > :05:47.information about how to prevent zika, except to put on insect
:05:48. > :05:51.repellent. Would-be mothers across Latin America are scared. If they
:05:52. > :05:56.have contracted zika it's not until late in a pregnancy that any foetal
:05:57. > :06:00.deformities will show, so it's a race against time. A vaccine for
:06:01. > :06:02.zika may not be found for three years and this is developing into a
:06:03. > :06:06.major health crisis. As we heard, the zika virus
:06:07. > :06:09.is carried by mosquitoes, and there's currently no vaccine
:06:10. > :06:16.or treatment available. So what causes it, how does
:06:17. > :06:19.it spread, and who's Here's our medical
:06:20. > :06:22.correspondent Fergus Walsh. When infected with the zika virus,
:06:23. > :06:30.it can pass it to humans which also spreads dengue
:06:31. > :06:36.fever. The zika virus was identified way
:06:37. > :06:42.back in 1947 in Uganda. But until a few months ago the zika
:06:43. > :06:46.virus was not thought to be a public 80% of those infected
:06:47. > :06:50.have no symptoms. In the rest it can cause a mild
:06:51. > :06:52.fever and headaches, In less than a year it's spread
:06:53. > :07:09.from Mexico, the Caribbean, to South America, 21 countries
:07:10. > :07:11.in all, most notably There doctors believe it represents
:07:12. > :07:16.a major health threat to women infected in the early
:07:17. > :07:22.stages of pregnancy. They think zika may cause a normally
:07:23. > :07:25.rare condition in infants born with unusually small
:07:26. > :07:31.heads and damaged brains. The only serious risk
:07:32. > :07:44.to public health is to pregnant women and pregnant women,
:07:45. > :07:46.if they get infected, they could have babies
:07:47. > :07:47.with microcephaly. So pregnant women should
:07:48. > :07:54.consider very seriously whether to travel to places where
:07:55. > :07:59.there is zika infection going on. Zika is quite unlike the deadly
:08:00. > :08:02.Ebola virus, which has killed more Ebola is highly contagious,
:08:03. > :08:13.whereas Zika does not pass This is not Ebola, this
:08:14. > :08:17.is a disease that is transmitted from mosquitoes so it
:08:18. > :08:23.will only be a problem in areas where there is this
:08:24. > :08:25.the same mosquito that But like Ebola it is an emerging
:08:26. > :08:32.infectious disease, It's too cold in the UK
:08:33. > :08:36.for the mosquito that carries the zika virus,
:08:37. > :08:38.so it's not a public But global health officials believe
:08:39. > :08:43.in time it will spread to many more countries, including parts
:08:44. > :08:44.of the United States. At the inquests into the deaths
:08:45. > :08:50.of 96 football fans at the Hillsborough Stadium
:08:51. > :08:53.in Sheffield in 1989, the coroner has started summing up
:08:54. > :08:56.260 days of evidence. He's asked the jury to answer
:08:57. > :08:59.a series of questions, including whether the Liverpool
:09:00. > :09:00.supporters who died Our north of England correspondent
:09:01. > :09:07.Judith Moritz has more details. Hillsborough took away
:09:08. > :09:11.the lives of 96 men, They were mothers and fathers,
:09:12. > :09:17.brothers and sisters, The youngest was just ten,
:09:18. > :09:23.the oldest a pensioner of nearly 70. Their families have spent more
:09:24. > :09:25.than a quarter of a century For the last two years they have sat
:09:26. > :09:30.through hours of harrowing The coroner's speech today marks
:09:31. > :09:35.the beginning of the end. I don't know what I am
:09:36. > :09:41.going to do when this is over, I really, truly don't know
:09:42. > :09:45.what I am going to do. Hillsborough is all
:09:46. > :09:47.I have ever known. The inquests have examined every
:09:48. > :09:50.aspect of what happened at Britain's worst stadium disaster,
:09:51. > :09:52.when the fans were crushed Now the jurors have been given
:09:53. > :09:57.a questionnaire based Amongst the 14 questions they'll
:09:58. > :10:04.have to answer is whether the 96 people who died were
:10:05. > :10:05.unlawfully killed. They will also be asked
:10:06. > :10:07.whether the police and ambulance services made any errors
:10:08. > :10:09.which contributed to And they will consider topics
:10:10. > :10:15.including the design of the stadium Former Chief Superintendent David
:10:16. > :10:19.Dukinfield was in charge More than 25 years later,
:10:20. > :10:23.he came to the new inquests Was he responsible for manslaughter
:10:24. > :10:33.by gross negligence? The jury have to be sure of that
:10:34. > :10:37.if accepting the fans It is nearly two years since
:10:38. > :10:42.the jurors came to Hillsborough. They saw for themselves
:10:43. > :10:44.where the crowd built up here outside the ground
:10:45. > :10:51.and they went through the tunnel, under the Sheffield Wednesday
:10:52. > :10:55.sign, towards the pitch. Since then, they have sat
:10:56. > :10:59.through many months of often very harrowing evidence and their task
:11:00. > :11:02.will be to find answers She is pleased the jury
:11:03. > :11:11.is being asked for more than just What the narrative does is give
:11:12. > :11:26.the opportunity to expand on what is ultimately going out
:11:27. > :11:29.to the public so it isn't just a finding and a one line
:11:30. > :11:32.statement that the people can The coroner is expected to take
:11:33. > :11:37.three weeks to sum up the evidence. The jury will be
:11:38. > :11:39.sent out next month. Tributes have been paid
:11:40. > :11:44.to the British explorer Henry Worsley, who's died
:11:45. > :11:47.in his attempt to become the first person to cross the Antarctic
:11:48. > :11:50.without support. The former army officer had walked
:11:51. > :11:54.more than 900 miles and was only 30 miles from his goal
:11:55. > :11:57.when he was taken ill and airlifted He was attempting a 1,000-mile
:11:58. > :12:02.unsupported trek across the continent, following in
:12:03. > :12:06.the footsteps of Sir Ernest Shackleton a century ago,
:12:07. > :12:08.as our science editor Nowhere on Earth is more
:12:09. > :12:16.hostile to human life. So crossing the icy,
:12:17. > :12:18.vast and dangerous continent of Antarctica alone and unaided
:12:19. > :12:20.was always going to be Henry Worsley was trying something
:12:21. > :12:26.no one had managed before, and he nearly did it,
:12:27. > :12:28.but ill and exhausted I have run out of time,
:12:29. > :12:47.physical endurance, and simple sheer ability to slide
:12:48. > :12:49.one ski in front of the other to travel the distance required
:12:50. > :12:54.to reach my goal. After a trek of 900 miles with just
:12:55. > :13:00.30 to go he called for a pick-up. He was flown to Chile
:13:01. > :13:02.and after complete Henry Worsley was someone who knew
:13:03. > :13:11.the dangers of the Polar world. Before a previous expedition
:13:12. > :13:13.to Antarctica he trained in Greenland and seemed to remain
:13:14. > :13:15.calm, whatever happened. Henry?
:13:16. > :13:22.Yes? How are you?
:13:23. > :13:26.Are you OK? Yeah, I'm all right.
:13:27. > :13:28.You crack on. And last year he told us
:13:29. > :13:32.what worried him most. The biggest threat really
:13:33. > :13:34.will be from the weather, and possibly from crevasses
:13:35. > :13:36.on the final 100 miles as I come down the
:13:37. > :13:38.Shackleton Glacier. His hope was to follow
:13:39. > :13:41.in the footsteps of the great polar explorer Ernest Shackleton,
:13:42. > :13:43.who tried and failed to cross the captain of the expedition ship
:13:44. > :13:51.Endurance. Travelling alone was the ultimate
:13:52. > :13:55.test. Going solo with no resupply
:13:56. > :14:00.and being unassisted in all shapes and forms is the purist form
:14:01. > :14:03.and the hardest form of travel quite possibly on the surface
:14:04. > :14:06.of the Earth. Only a week ago he believed
:14:07. > :14:09.he was still on course. I'm jolly hungry, I'm
:14:10. > :14:17.jolly tired and I've got a deadline to meet for a pick-up
:14:18. > :14:21.on somewhere around the 24th. He never made it,

:24:20. > :24:28.in 2011, when people power swept away Hosni Mubarak and
:24:29. > :24:34.freedom was in the air. Some who were in the square then

:25:13. > :25:16.is a risk to both of us. Noor knows the risks

:25:21. > :25:24.of his time in Tahrir Square Both he and his brother have been
:25:25. > :25:30.detained in recent years. Noor says he himself was held

:26:24. > :26:27.of a Grand Slam tournament. And with Andy Murray also winning,
:26:28. > :26:30.it means that for the first time in 39 years Britain is represented
:26:31. > :26:34.in the men's and women's quarterfinals of a Grand Slam,
:26:35. > :26:36.as our sports correspondent A place in the quarterfinals
:26:37. > :26:43.and her best ever performance For a player who was ranked 150th
:26:44. > :26:50.in the world just over a year ago I'm just incredibly happy
:26:51. > :26:55.to still be here in the tournament. The fact that it's the quarterfinal
:26:56. > :26:58.of the Australian Open Johanna Konta was carrying the hopes
:26:59. > :27:03.of British women's tennis At first there were nerves
:27:04. > :27:11.as she handed the opening set to her Russian opponent,
:27:12. > :27:13.Ekaterina Makarova, However, Konta's surge
:27:14. > :27:17.through the rankings has coincided And then, after three hours and four
:27:18. > :27:25.minutes of attrition, For Australian tennis,
:27:26. > :27:35.Konta was the one that got away. Born in Sydney to Hungarian parents,
:27:36. > :27:39.she moved to Eastbourne at the age of 14, and became
:27:40. > :27:43.a British citizen in 2012. Her win brings to an
:27:44. > :27:46.end a 32-year wait. The last British woman to reach
:27:47. > :27:50.a grand slam quarterfinal was Jo Durie back in 1984,
:27:51. > :27:54.who beat a 15-year-old Steffi Graf That was seven years
:27:55. > :28:01.before Konta was born. It's great for the game,
:28:02. > :28:04.it's great for British tennis, it's great for the girls' game
:28:05. > :28:07.in Great Britain because we now have somebody in the back end of slams,
:28:08. > :28:10.and that gets them talking Konta will now meet Chinese
:28:11. > :28:15.qualifier Zhang Shuai for a place So far she's gone under the radar
:28:16. > :28:19.in Melbourne but now the world is waking up to the
:28:20. > :28:27.name Johanna Konta. One of the most eagerly-anticipated
:28:28. > :28:31.art exhibitions of recent years opens later this week
:28:32. > :28:33.at the Royal Academy in London. It will bring together some
:28:34. > :28:36.of the world's best-known works, examining the role that gardens have
:28:37. > :28:38.played in the development of art The work of Monet will be
:28:39. > :28:43.the starting point, and the exhibition will include
:28:44. > :28:46.all three panels of the famous water lily work displayed together
:28:47. > :28:49.in public for the first time in Europe, as our arts editor
:28:50. > :29:04.Will Gompertz reports. A vast landscape without land. Or
:29:05. > :29:08.sky. A view not so much from Monet's Japanese bridge but floating
:29:09. > :29:13.somewhere in his famous water garden. You are immersed in and
:29:14. > :29:19.disoriented by the artist's sensory world. Here we have Monet's great
:29:20. > :29:23.Agapanthus Triptych, one of the major works that preoccupied him for
:29:24. > :29:27.the last ten years of his life. Apparently he would sit for long
:29:28. > :29:32.hours almost every day by his water lily Pond, looking at the shifts of
:29:33. > :29:36.light, reflection, the movement of these rafts of water lilies on the
:29:37. > :29:42.surface of the water, and then go away and distil it all in the
:29:43. > :29:47.studio. Monet created gardens to enjoy and paint wherever he lived.
:29:48. > :29:51.He saw himself as an artist gardener, as did his friends, like
:29:52. > :29:56.when well, who depicted him at work. It was when he moved to northern
:29:57. > :30:01.France that he made a garden to equal one of his paintings. He
:30:02. > :30:08.treated the garden as an artwork in itself. Yes, he designed it with an
:30:09. > :30:12.artist's eye. He went around with pots of paint to work out the colour
:30:13. > :30:19.harmonies in the garden. Perhaps not everyone knows what an extraordinary
:30:20. > :30:24.knowledgeable gardener Monet was. He knew a tremendous amount about
:30:25. > :30:31.horticulture and botany. So does this man. How do these paintings
:30:32. > :30:36.make you feel as a gardener? They make me feel like I want to be
:30:37. > :30:43.painting. They are just so beautifully observed. The colour is
:30:44. > :30:47.so rich, being able to get very close to these paintings and see the
:30:48. > :30:54.colour come out of one thing over the next over the next, it's a very
:30:55. > :30:58.similar process to planting. Sometimes there is moments of
:30:59. > :31:05.incandescents. It's marvellous. There are over 120 paintings in this
:31:06. > :31:10.show, made by late 19th and early 20th century avant-garde artists who
:31:11. > :31:14.studied light effects and colour relationships. Matisse and Kandinsky
:31:15. > :31:21.feature, but for me it is Monet's flowers that stand out.
:31:22. > :31:23.Newsnight is coming up over on BBC Two.
:31:24. > :31:32.Is it wrong for Google to try and Payless, we ask Labour's Shadow
:31:33. > :31:35.Chancellor about it in the studio. Here on BBC One, it's time
:31:36. > :31:37.for the news where you are.
