:04:22. > :04:24.of the medical profession have urged junior doctors in England to cancel
:04:25. > :04:27.plans for a series of five-day strikes between now and Christmas,
:04:28. > :04:29.in protest at the Government's The Academy of Medical Royal
:04:30. > :04:34.Colleges said the action was not proportionate and
:04:35. > :04:37.would harm patients. The doctors' union, the BMA, says it
:04:38. > :04:40.has been left with no choice. Our health editor,
:04:41. > :04:51.Hugh Pym, reports. For each and every doctor in
:04:52. > :04:54.England, this bitter dispute has raised difficult choices. The
:04:55. > :05:00.central question: Should junior doctors be stepping up their strike?
:05:01. > :05:04.They say we stand together. But is that really the case? Leaders of the
:05:05. > :05:09.profession, who together form the acam my of medical royal colleges,
:05:10. > :05:12.acknowledge their junior colleagues concerns about new conditions, but
:05:13. > :05:18.they say the action is going too far. Patient safety and well being
:05:19. > :05:22.is paramount that. Is why we, as doctors and surgeons, went into the
:05:23. > :05:25.medical profession. We are here to look after patients. We are
:05:26. > :05:30.concerned that a series of strikes of five days in length will actually
:05:31. > :05:36.impact on patient well being and their care. But two out of the 20
:05:37. > :05:40.medical college leaders didn't agree with the sament. One of them told me
:05:41. > :05:44.what she thought of the proposed strikes. We are not taking sides in
:05:45. > :05:48.this argument. We're here to support our members and to speak on behalf
:05:49. > :05:53.of children. So do you think it is a reasonable action to take? I think
:05:54. > :05:56.it's a decision for every individual doctor to make. And I know very well
:05:57. > :05:59.that each and every one of our members will have thought long and
:06:00. > :06:04.hard about whether or not they will strike or they will not strike. On
:06:05. > :06:08.the doctors' agenda some items have been resolved in recent months, such
:06:09. > :06:14.as preventing excessive hours and protecting whistle-blowers. But they
:06:15. > :06:17.say issues like weekend pay and provisions for women and part-time
:06:18. > :06:21.workers are not resolved. The British Medical Association says the
:06:22. > :06:24.strikes could be halted if the Government stopped imposing a new
:06:25. > :06:29.contract, which had been rejected by members. Junior doctors planning to
:06:30. > :06:35.strike say they have no alternative but to go ahead with the walkout. We
:06:36. > :06:40.feel that we've had no choice but to escalate and up the ante. Weave had
:06:41. > :06:43.a day of -- we've had a day of strikes, two days of strikes and
:06:44. > :06:48.it's not worked. Out of a desperate act, we've had to do five days.
:06:49. > :06:53.Another doctor, though, told us of his doubts about the BMA's right to
:06:54. > :06:58.organise such extensive action. The BMA seems to be committed to further
:06:59. > :07:02.industrial action and a lengthy process of industrial action. I did
:07:03. > :07:08.not vote for that process, when I voted to reject the contract. My
:07:09. > :07:12.preference would be to reballot members about a lengthy process of
:07:13. > :07:17.further industrial action. The Patients' Association said with
:07:18. > :07:21.thousands of operations set to be postponed, the scale of the action
:07:22. > :07:24.was unforgiveable. Late today, organisations, representing
:07:25. > :07:28.hospitals and other trusts in England, NHS providers and the NHS
:07:29. > :07:32.confederation have called on the BMA to suspend the strikes, arguing
:07:33. > :07:36.they'll cause major disruption and risk patient safety. The debate on
:07:37. > :07:39.the merits of this dispute across the health world is certainly
:07:40. > :07:42.intensifying. Hugh Pym, BBC News. A Church of England bishop
:07:43. > :07:44.has become the first to reveal that he is gay
:07:45. > :07:46.and in a relationship. The Right Reverend Nicholas
:07:47. > :07:49.Chamberlain, who is bishop of Grantham, made the disclosure
:07:50. > :07:51.tonight in an interview Caroline Hawley joins
:07:52. > :07:56.us from the Archbishop of Canterbury's official residence,
:07:57. > :07:59.Lambeth Palace. Why has he chosen to
:08:00. > :08:08.make this public now? Well, Nicholas Chamberlain said it
:08:09. > :08:11.wasn't his decision to make what he called "a big thing" about coming
:08:12. > :08:15.out. He was essentially pushed into it because a Sunday newspaper was
:08:16. > :08:17.planning to reveal his sexuality. Now he told the Guardian that
:08:18. > :08:22.everyone involved in his appointment last year knew that he was gay, that
:08:23. > :08:26.he is in a committed, long-term relationship and that he is abiding
:08:27. > :08:30.by church guide lines that bishops have to be celibate. He has made it
:08:31. > :08:38.public now, what's the reaction been so far? He said himself that it
:08:39. > :08:42.would cause ripples. As you know the issue of sexuality has been devicive
:08:43. > :08:47.both in the Church of England and even more so the worldwide Anglican
:08:48. > :08:51.communion in. Lambeth Palace the Archbishop said tonight that he was
:08:52. > :08:55.appointed on the basis of his skills and that his sexuality was
:08:56. > :08:58.completely irrelevant to his office. Thank you.

:09:31. > :09:37.Findings are that two persons, the girl's father and her
:09:38. > :09:41.ex-husband, they have been charged with murder.
:09:42. > :09:44.There were also reports of rape, that she was raped.
:09:45. > :09:52.We took the suspect for DNA test, Shakeel, and he later

:11:24. > :11:36.At Europe's biggest technology show, it's Samsung who makes the biggest
:11:37. > :11:42.noise. Its star product this year is the Galaxy Note 7. This supersize
:11:43. > :11:46.smartphone has won rave reviews in the US and Asia. It was due to be on
:11:47. > :11:56.sale in the UK today. Then this happened. This American man posted a
:11:57. > :12:02.video on YouTube claims his Galaxy Note 7 had caught fire. Becareful
:12:03. > :12:06.out there everyone rocking the new Note 7, it might catch fire. Samsung
:12:07. > :12:11.announced a radical move, the company was halting sales and
:12:12. > :12:16.recalling the Note 7. A battery issue was behind the fires, though
:12:17. > :12:22.just 35 out of 2. 5 million customers reported problems. 35 is a
:12:23. > :12:26.big number. I think that Samsung is doing the right thing and siding on
:12:27. > :12:29.caution and taking the devices off the market, figuring out why there's
:12:30. > :12:33.an issue with the cells in the battery, which seems to be the
:12:34. > :12:39.problem. This news could hardly come at a worse time for Samsung. Not
:12:40. > :12:43.only does it overshadow this launch, it comes just a week before its
:12:44. > :12:51.deadly rival has its own phone launch. At an event in California

:12:56. > :12:59.have disappointed lately, allowing Samsung to pull ahead in the
:13:00. > :13:03.smartphone race. Samsung is the biggest player in smartphones. In
:13:04. > :13:09.the first half of this year, it had just under 23% of the market. Its
:13:10. > :13:15.nearest rival, Apple had 13%, though a new iPhone might close the gap.
:13:16. > :13:18.But will such bad publicity affect the way the Samsung brand is seen?
:13:19. > :13:23.We asked some phone owners in Leicester? You don't know if it
:13:24. > :13:29.could happen again or to any other phone. Still put me off. I'm not
:13:30. > :13:32.opposed to Samsung products, until I read that their batteries are
:13:33. > :13:38.exploding. I think that would put me off purchasing it for sure. It
:13:39. > :13:41.probably wouldn't put me off. Large companies tend to put things right.

:13:58. > :13:59.one of the world's most brutal and repressive
:14:00. > :14:01.dictators, has died. The news was confirmed
:14:02. > :14:02.by state television, after days of speculation
:14:03. > :14:07.that his 26-year rule was over. Islam Karimov came to power
:14:08. > :14:10.as a Communist leader, while Uzbekistan was still part
:14:11. > :14:13.of the Soviet Union. Under his rule, all political
:14:14. > :14:15.opposition and independent Human rights groups say as many
:14:16. > :14:20.as 12,000 political prisoners are in jail and many others
:14:21. > :14:23.have been murdered. There are even claims that
:14:24. > :14:26.some were boiled alive. Despite that, Uzbekistan became
:14:27. > :14:29.an ally of the United States and Britain, in the war
:14:30. > :14:32.in neighbouring Afghanistan. Our correspondent Steve Rosenberg
:14:33. > :14:40.reports from Moscow. He was the archetypal dictator,
:14:41. > :14:44.all-powerful, brutal. Islam Karimov ruled Uzbekistan
:14:45. > :14:49.with an iron fist for 27 years. He even put his own daughter
:14:50. > :14:55.under house arrest. But tonight, state television ended
:14:56. > :14:58.nearly a week of rumours "Our dear President has died",
:14:59. > :15:04.said the announcer, "a great Karimov created a police state,

:15:40. > :15:42.to Uzbekistan believes the West Undoubtedly, the West turned
:15:43. > :15:49.a blind eye to human rights Initially, this was because of
:15:50. > :15:54.Afghanistan, the fact that the Americans and the Germans
:15:55. > :16:00.both had airbases in Uzbekistan, But the strategic position
:16:01. > :16:09.of Uzbekistan has led to the West really being shamefully neglectful
:16:10. > :16:13.of the human rights position in Uzbekistan, and at
:16:14. > :16:18.times lying about it. And President Karimov continued
:16:19. > :16:23.to be courted, both Russia, competing with China
:16:24. > :16:31.and America for influence The reason that Moscow and Beijing
:16:32. > :16:37.and the West will be watching very closely what happens next
:16:38. > :16:40.in Uzbekistan is not only to do If there's a power struggle over

:16:50. > :16:53.in region will exploit that to destabilise the whole
:16:54. > :16:59.of central Asia. But Karimov's critics say he used

:25:38. > :25:42.my dad had a football at my feet. As a youngster, he'd seemed

:25:46. > :25:48.for his home club Liverpool and then At 17 years old, the big time

:26:05. > :26:07.was left in a coma with a bleed on the brain
:26:08. > :26:12.and a catalogue of injuries. My right knee was ruptured,
:26:13. > :26:18.broke my ankle, broke my neck. When I was in hospital,
:26:19. > :26:25.Jamie Carragher came in to see me. To see someone like him,
:26:26. > :26:28.he's one of my heroes, And then Steven Gerrard,
:26:29. > :26:34.my idol, I was all excited. So my mum and dad took me down
:26:35. > :26:38.and I had my dinner with them and had a good chat with Steven
:26:39. > :26:41.and then from that, it gives It was two years before
:26:42. > :26:45.I could even run. Highdale's professional
:26:46. > :26:47.career never recovered, but his skills have now found
:26:48. > :26:52.a new stage. The 7-a-side football in Rio
:26:53. > :26:55.is for athletes with cerebral palsy, or who have experienced a brain
:26:56. > :26:59.injury, as Highdale did. And the British team face some
