:00:45. > :00:57.It isn't so much the paintings themselves which I want to consider,

:00:58. > :01:02.as the way we now see them. The influential art critic and

:01:03. > :01:15.writer, John Berger has died at the age of 90.

:01:16. > :01:21.The so-called Islamic State group claims one of its followers

:02:21. > :02:31.I said my last goodbyes to one of my friends,

:02:32. > :02:42.And I thought, because the gun shooting stopped, and I was

:02:43. > :02:47.thinking myself, he is going to, I think he is going to explode himself

:02:48. > :02:51.and we're going to die in the toilet, in the bathroom.

:03:36. > :03:38.The Islamic State group said they were behind it, in

:03:42. > :03:46.Most of the dead and injured were tourists.

:04:13. > :04:15.Perched on the Bosphorus, Reina had a prime location.

:04:16. > :04:23.From here, you can see how high profile, how

:04:24. > :04:28.Reina was a symbol of the high life side of Istanbul,

:04:29. > :04:30.where alcohol flowed and parties ran late.

:04:31. > :04:33.It's an element of the city many Turks and foreigners cherish.

:04:34. > :04:40.It is now an urgent race to catch the

:04:41. > :04:44.man who destroyed so many lives and to try to reassure a nation that

:04:45. > :04:52.And our security correspondent, Frank Gardner, is with me.

:04:53. > :04:57.Frank, yet another terror attack on Turkish soil, this time claimed by

:04:58. > :05:01.IS. What's your view of the situation there? Well, this was a

:05:02. > :05:05.double target for so-called Islamic State. This was a form of

:05:06. > :05:09.retaliation for them because they're coming under military pressure,

:05:10. > :05:13.daily pressure from Turkish warplanes and ground incursions in

:05:14. > :05:18.Syria. Turkey is fighting IS on the ground. It was also a way to grab

:05:19. > :05:21.international attention by hitting an international group, that they

:05:22. > :05:24.call defenders of Christianity or something, because they were

:05:25. > :05:29.celebrating New Year's Eve, which they consider to be a Pagan

:05:30. > :05:32.festival. It was a double target. For Turkey there were a number of

:05:33. > :05:37.reasons why this is particular tough for them. Turkey's been shaken by

:05:38. > :05:43.three big events really, ongoing events. It's had the falled coup in

:05:44. > :05:46.the summer, which has led to the sacking of 100,000 people, many of

:05:47. > :05:50.whom are in the security and intelligence apparatus. It's

:05:51. > :05:54.weakened Turkey's security. They're now fully at war with so-called

:05:55. > :05:59.Islamic State and they're fully at war with the PKK, the Kurdish

:06:00. > :06:02.workers party, gorilla group. They're fighting several --

:06:03. > :06:03.guerrilla groups. They're fighting several battles. It's not easy for

:06:04. > :06:06.Turkey. Frank, thank you. And the so-called Islamic State

:06:07. > :06:09.group has also claimed responsibility for a series of bomb

:06:10. > :06:11.attacks in Iraq. In one incident 35 people died,

:06:12. > :06:14.when a suicide bomber detonated a device at an outdoor market

:06:15. > :06:16.in the Shi'ite neighbourhood A British soldier has died,

:06:17. > :06:24.while serving in Iraq. The Ministry of Defence says

:06:25. > :06:27.it happened in Taji, 17 miles north of Baghdad,

:06:28. > :06:29.and isn't the result Our correspondent Simon Jones is at

:06:30. > :06:42.the Ministry of Defence tonight. Simon, just bring us up to date with

:06:43. > :06:46.the latest on this. There are currently 650 British soldiers in

:06:47. > :06:50.Iraq, but not in a combat role. Their task is to train members of

:06:51. > :06:54.the Iraqi Defence Forces in the fight against so-called Islamic

:06:55. > :06:59.State. There is a training camp just north of Baghdad. We know that

:07:00. > :07:03.Iraqis have been trained how to deal with improvised explosive devices

:07:04. > :07:07.and basic weapons handling by their British counterparts. The Ministry

:07:08. > :07:12.of Defence is not saying very much about how soldier died. He was a

:07:13. > :07:16.member of the Duke of Lancaster's Regiment. The MoD stress that's was

:07:17. > :07:19.not the result of enemy activity. The family of the soldier has been

:07:20. > :07:22.informed. They've asked for a period of grace before the name is

:07:23. > :07:24.released. Simon Jones, at the Ministry of

:07:25. > :07:27.Defence, in Central London, thanks. Here, a girl injured in a fatal

:07:28. > :07:29.hit-and-run in Oldham Zaneta Krokova, who was 11,

:07:30. > :07:33.had been in a critical Her 12-year-old cousin

:07:34. > :07:38.Helina Kotlarova died At the scene, tributes

:07:39. > :07:46.continue to build. This now a shrine

:07:47. > :07:50.to two young girls. 11-year-old Zaneta Krokova lost her

:07:51. > :07:55.fight for life this morning. Her 12-year-old cousin,

:07:56. > :07:58.Helina Kotlarova, died soon after being struck by the car

:07:59. > :08:02.on New Year's Eve. Respects were being paid

:08:03. > :08:07.by classmates and teachers. Very popular, they had

:08:08. > :08:09.a lot of friends. From all at Oasis Academy, Oldham,

:08:10. > :08:16.our thoughts and prayers are with the family throughout

:08:17. > :08:20.this sad time. The police believe the girls

:08:21. > :08:24.were struck by a Peugeot 807 car Officers say information provided

:08:25. > :08:33.by the local community has proved vital in moving

:08:34. > :08:38.this investigation forward. Officers released images

:08:39. > :08:41.of the car, and are trying They also want to trace

:08:42. > :08:46.the driver of a white Citroen Dispatch seen in the area,

:08:47. > :08:48.who they believe might Four men are tonight being held

:08:49. > :08:55.on suspicion of causing death One of Jeremy Corbyn's closest

:08:56. > :09:05.allies has suggested the Labour leader could step down,

:09:06. > :09:08.if the party's fortunes don't The leader of Unite, Len McCluskey,

:09:09. > :09:14.says Mr Corbyn should be given time to prove himself,

:09:15. > :09:17.and he wouldn't try to Here's our political

:09:18. > :09:22.correspondent, Ben Wright. He's one of Jeremy Corbyn's most

:09:23. > :09:26.important, powerful backers. And Len McCluskey, the leader

:09:27. > :09:28.of Unite, is hoping to be re-elected the union's

:09:29. > :09:31.General Secretary in April. But, in an interview today,

:09:32. > :09:35.Mr McCluskey suggested the Labour Leader had a sell-by-date,

:09:36. > :09:38.and was blunt about the party's Len McCluskey later tweeted that

:09:39. > :10:08.Jeremy Corbyn continued Jeremy Corbyn was re-elected

:10:09. > :10:14.Labour Leader in September, but many of his own MPs remain

:10:15. > :10:17.in despair at the party's performance, and the tussle going

:10:18. > :10:20.on within the Unite union reflects arguments going on within Labour

:10:21. > :10:24.about Mr Corbyn's competence and where the party should stand

:10:25. > :10:28.on immigration and Brexit - We have to refocus

:10:29. > :10:34.our union's activity. Campaigning against Len McCluskey

:10:35. > :10:36.is this man, Gerard Coin, who accused the current

:10:37. > :10:39.General Secretary of being Not playing Westminster

:10:40. > :10:43.power politics... He said union members wanted

:10:44. > :10:46.Brexit to mean an end Control of borders is

:10:47. > :10:51.very important to them. It was one of key issues as to why

:10:52. > :10:56.they voted exit in the referendum. And actually, they would feel very

:10:57. > :11:00.betrayed if that promise Len McCluskey also said Labour must

:11:01. > :11:06.get it right on immigration or risk The contest for Unite's

:11:07. > :11:11.future will have a bearing Several Syrian rebel groups say

:11:12. > :11:21.they've suspended discussions For a planned Peace Conference in

:11:22. > :11:26.Kazakhstan later this month. They say it's in the light of Syrian

:11:27. > :11:29.government ceasefire violations. A British-based monitoring group

:11:30. > :11:31.said Syrian warplanes had carried out more aid raids

:11:32. > :11:33.in the Wadi Barada The authorities in Brazil say around

:11:34. > :11:37.60 inmates have died, Families rushed to the jail

:11:38. > :11:41.in Manaus in the north of the country, to check if friends

:11:42. > :11:44.or relatives were among the dead, after the battle

:11:45. > :11:47.between rival drug gangs. Prison staff are now

:11:48. > :11:53.back in control. Police, investigating

:11:54. > :11:56.the murder of a man, who died in an arson attack

:11:57. > :11:59.on a house in Mill Guy near Glasgow, have named him as

:12:00. > :12:02.Cameron Logan, who was 23. His body was found

:12:03. > :12:04.yesterday morning. His girlfriend was also seriously

:12:05. > :12:06.injured in the blaze and is in a critical condition

:12:07. > :12:11.in hospital. A couple who went missing,

:12:12. > :12:13.while walking in the Cairngorms, The man and woman in their

:12:14. > :12:18.50s failed to return They'd been forced to spend

:12:19. > :12:22.the night in freezing conditions on the mountains,

:12:23. > :12:25.after bad weather closed in. Rescuers say the bivvy bag

:12:26. > :12:27.they used for shelter Their dog - a black collie -

:12:28. > :12:35.was also rescued. Rail fares have gone up today,

:12:36. > :12:38.with campaigners calling the 2.3% increase in England,

:12:39. > :12:40.Scotland and Wales a "kick The Government says the rise

:12:41. > :12:46.is below average wage increases, and the money

:12:47. > :12:48.is needed to pay for Our business correspondent,

:12:49. > :12:54.Joe Lynam, reports. If you have to pay out thousands

:12:55. > :12:58.of pounds for a rail season ticket, your New Year hasn't

:12:59. > :13:00.very started well. With the exception

:13:01. > :13:02.of Northern Ireland, the average ticket will be 2.3% more

:13:03. > :13:05.expensive from today. Season tickets, which are set

:13:06. > :13:08.by the Government, go up by 1.9%, still considerably more

:13:09. > :13:14.than inflation at the moment. Even allowing for inflation,

:13:15. > :13:17.fares have risen by a quarter I don't think the train workers

:13:18. > :13:26.are getting paid more money. I think it's a disgrace,

:13:27. > :13:31.particularly as the railways It's going to make me feel

:13:32. > :13:37.disappointed, angry. These latest fare rises

:13:38. > :13:46.will especially sting commuters, who've had to put up with industrial

:13:47. > :13:49.strike action, on top of punctuality problems,

:13:50. > :13:51.insufficient seating and the impact But the Government says

:13:52. > :13:57.it's on an unprecedented Around the rail network,

:13:58. > :14:01.there's a lot happening. And yes, of course, nobody wants

:14:02. > :14:05.to see a fare increase. And right now, fares are rising

:14:06. > :14:10.less fast than wages, so at least that's a step

:14:11. > :14:13.in the right direction. But passenger groups say

:14:14. > :14:16.new investment shouldn't There's a huge amount of money

:14:17. > :14:21.coming into the industry from us passengers -

:14:22. > :14:23.about ?9 billion a year. That should be buying

:14:24. > :14:25.lots of improvement While passengers may baulk at this

:14:26. > :14:34.latest fare increase, That's because taxpayers are now

:14:35. > :14:38.shouldering proportionately less of the cost of running the railways

:14:39. > :14:41.than they were. It means of course that

:14:42. > :14:44.commuters are shouldering And campaigners are calling

:14:45. > :14:49.for a total freeze in rail fares, which they say has become totally

:14:50. > :14:51.disconnected from the One of the biggest school campuses

:14:52. > :15:03.in the UK is being built in County Tyrone, as part of a push

:15:04. > :15:06.to encourage shared education The overwelming majority of pupils

:15:07. > :15:12.in Northern Ireland go to schools based on religious denomination,

:15:13. > :15:15.but the sharing of facilities on one site is seen as a way of breaking

:15:16. > :15:18.down barriers and fostering Our Ireland correspondent,

:15:19. > :15:27.Chris Buckler, reports. In Northern Ireland, there

:15:28. > :15:30.is a clear divide in education. More than 90% of pupils

:15:31. > :15:32.are taught separately in what are broadly seen

:15:33. > :15:39.as Protestant and Catholic schools. There are many who believe that only

:15:40. > :15:42.reinforces the idea of two distinct Now there is a push to bring schools

:15:43. > :15:52.a little closer together. Like obviously there is a division

:15:53. > :15:55.in Protestants and Catholics. Obviously now, we are now

:15:56. > :15:57.leading into the future. These pupils are from some

:15:58. > :16:00.of the six schools that will soon sit side by side on Omagh's first

:16:01. > :16:10.share education campus. It will make a big

:16:11. > :16:11.difference, especially Where I'm from, there's not as much

:16:12. > :16:16.familiar background. The six different schools

:16:17. > :16:18.will have separate buildings This land housed an Army base

:16:19. > :16:22.during the many years The notorious Omagh bombing happened

:16:23. > :16:31.just a mile away from where Shared education is part of attempts

:16:32. > :16:35.to create what politicians call a shared future and escape those

:16:36. > :16:39.decades of division. There are even proposals

:16:40. > :16:41.for schools that will The difference will be that,

:16:42. > :16:45.whenever Protestant and Catholic pupils walk in, they will be wearing

:16:46. > :16:47.different uniforms. One group will turn left

:16:48. > :16:51.and the other turn right, to be taught in their different

:16:52. > :16:54.wings of the building. There are people

:16:55. > :16:56.who believe that only That's what Catholic and Protestant

:16:57. > :17:05.pupils are taught together. I think shared education is helping

:17:06. > :17:07.but I think integrated education is the actual,

:17:08. > :17:12.ultimate aim that our education system should

:17:13. > :17:15.be working towards. But the vast majority of parents

:17:16. > :17:18.in Northern Ireland still choose to send their children

:17:19. > :17:23.to state or Catholic schools. What our school offers

:17:24. > :17:25.is a separate experience, a separate identity,

:17:26. > :17:28.a separate tradition within that This is a unique opportunity

:17:29. > :17:34.to bring us all onto one campus so that we still maintain our

:17:35. > :17:38.own identity and ethos but have that ability to share

:17:39. > :17:44.when we need to share. Arvalee recently became the first

:17:45. > :17:49.school to open on the Strule campus. It's for pupils with learning

:17:50. > :17:52.difficulties and it's hoped the relationships will be developed

:17:53. > :17:54.with it and its eventual But the true test of this project

:17:55. > :18:00.won't be how close the schools physically are to each

:18:01. > :18:02.other, but how close the The highly influential art critic,

:18:03. > :18:10.writer and painter, John Berger, His pioneering TV series Ways

:18:11. > :18:16.of Seeing was turned He also won the Booker Prize

:18:17. > :18:21.for literature in 1972. Our arts editor, Will Gompertz,

:18:22. > :18:25.look back at his life. The process of seeing paintings

:18:37. > :18:44.of the assumptions usually made about the tradition

:18:45. > :18:48.of European painting. He argued that the

:18:49. > :18:50.advent of mass media fundamentally altered our perception

:18:51. > :18:54.and appreciation of art. Take this original painting

:18:55. > :19:05.in the National Gallery. Only what you are seeing

:19:06. > :19:07.is still not the original. The programme was to become iconic

:19:08. > :19:14.and highly influential but would not, he told me a couple

:19:15. > :19:20.of months ago, be made today. We had four months to

:19:35. > :19:41.television, which could never occur again, and which were

:19:42. > :19:47.miraculous for us. John Berger challenged convention,

:19:48. > :19:51.the establishment, and us. He had the eye of an

:19:52. > :19:53.artist, the intellect of an academic, and the
