:00:00. > :00:09.threatening the United States with a pre-emptive nuclear strike

:00:10. > :00:15.if the US plans military action against it.

:00:16. > :00:18.The comments came as the US Vice President, on a trip to South Korea,

:00:19. > :00:20.warned the North not to test the United States.

:00:21. > :00:22.We'll be asking what Washington can do

:00:23. > :00:30.Also tonight, Prince Harry opens up about the grief he suffered

:00:31. > :00:33.after the death of his mother, Princess Diana.

:00:34. > :00:36.I can safely say that losing my mum at the age of 12,

:00:37. > :00:41.and therefore shutting down all of my emotions for the last 20 years,

:00:42. > :00:45.has had a quite serious effect on not only my personal life

:00:46. > :00:51.Turkey's President Erdogan brushes off criticism by election observers

:00:52. > :00:56.of a referendum giving him sweeping new powers.

:00:57. > :01:00.And after over 30 years away from top-flight football,

:01:01. > :01:25.earn a place in next season's Premier League.

:01:26. > :01:30.North Korea has stepped up its hostile language

:01:31. > :01:32.against the United States, warning there will be

:01:33. > :01:35.all-out war if the US uses military force against it,

:01:36. > :01:39.and that it would be willing to use a pre-emptive nuclear strike.

:01:40. > :01:42.The comments to the BBC by the North Korean Vice Foreign Minister

:01:43. > :01:45.came as the US Vice President, Mike Pence, who's visiting South Korea,

:01:46. > :01:49.warned the North not to test President Trump's resolve.

:01:50. > :01:51.John Sudworth reports now from Pyongyang in North Korea,

:01:52. > :01:59.where his movements are being monitored and tightly controlled.

:02:00. > :02:04.North Korea is all about shows of strength.

:02:05. > :02:09.The first today came in this taekwondo demonstration.

:02:10. > :02:13.The next, in Kim Il-sung Square, close to the centre of power,

:02:14. > :02:21.TRANSLATION: If the US is reckless enough to use military means,

:02:22. > :02:26.it would mean, from that very day, an all-out war.

:02:27. > :02:29.Our nuclear weapons protect us from that threat.

:02:30. > :02:32.We will be conducting more missile tests

:02:33. > :02:35.on a weekly, monthly and yearly basis.

:02:36. > :02:39.Today, the US Vice President, Mike Pence,

:02:40. > :02:42.was in South Korea, visiting the demilitarised zone

:02:43. > :02:46.that separates the two halves of this divided peninsula.

:02:47. > :02:51.There was a period of strategic patience,

:02:52. > :02:54.but the era of strategic patience is over.

:02:55. > :02:57.President Trump has made it clear that the patience

:02:58. > :03:02.of the United States and our allies in this region has run out.

:03:03. > :03:07.But despite the posturing on both sides, the risks are limited.

:03:08. > :03:12.For the US and its allies, war would be far too costly.

:03:13. > :03:15.And North Korea's threats, although deeply alarming,

:03:16. > :03:21.If you could send one message to Donald Trump today,

:03:22. > :03:31.that if the US encroaches on our sovereignty,

:03:32. > :03:34.then it will provoke an immediate counter reaction.

:03:35. > :03:37.If the US is planning a military attack against us,

:03:38. > :03:41.we will react with a nuclear pre-emptive strike

:03:42. > :03:51.Tonight, although all options apparently remain on the table,

:03:52. > :03:55.the US appears to be signalling that diplomacy and toughened sanctions

:03:56. > :04:02.It's yet unclear how, having failed before,

:04:03. > :04:08.they will persuade this most totalitarian of states to disarm.

:04:09. > :04:14.beyond the gloom of this city lie vast political prisons,

:04:15. > :04:19.gulags in which all dissent, however mild, is crushed.

:04:20. > :04:29.the vice minister called that accusation a lie.

:04:30. > :04:31.Militarised, isolated and repressive,

:04:32. > :04:34.North Korea has the right to follow its own path

:04:35. > :04:36.and, he insisted, no-one will be able to stop it.

:04:37. > :04:51.Our correspondent Gary O'Donoghue is outside the White House.

:04:52. > :05:00.in the face of this apparent defiance from Pyongyang?

:05:01. > :05:06.Well, Reeta, there was a previous president to use to say he liked to

:05:07. > :05:11.speak softly but carry a big stick. Donald Trump likes to speak very

:05:12. > :05:14.loudly and still carry a big stick, and so he has been upping the

:05:15. > :05:18.rhetoric today, telling North Korea that it has got to behave, he has

:05:19. > :05:23.already sent that aircraft carrier and two destroyers to sail up and

:05:24. > :05:27.down the Korean Peninsula. His vice president standing on the border

:05:28. > :05:31.today, going eyeball to eyeball with those North Korean guards. But the

:05:32. > :05:36.monetary options are limited for the US. They know that if they hit North

:05:37. > :05:40.Korea, the South Korean capital, Seoul, with its 10 million

:05:41. > :05:44.inhabitants, just 30 miles from those North Korean artillery

:05:45. > :05:48.positions. So they aren't lying on China to put new, renewed pressure,

:05:49. > :05:52.economic and political pressure on the North, to stop taking its coal

:05:53. > :05:59.and starts taking its oil. The problem is that China is still not

:06:00. > :06:02.very keen on doing that, so for President Trump, the moment of the

:06:03. > :06:06.test will come in the North Koreans decide whether or not to detonate a

:06:07. > :06:09.six nuclear weapon. When they do that, the rhetoric will be tested,

:06:10. > :06:14.and we will see whether he is prepared not to carry but to use

:06:15. > :06:16.that big stick in these circumstances. Gary O'Donoghue,

:06:17. > :06:18.thank you. Prince Harry has revealed

:06:19. > :06:20.that he has had counselling to help him come to terms

:06:21. > :06:22.with the death of his The Prince, who was 12

:06:23. > :06:26.when she died in a car crash, told the Daily Telegraph that

:06:27. > :06:29.he'd spent 20 years not thinking about her death and eventually

:06:30. > :06:31.got help after two years Mental-health charities have

:06:32. > :06:34.welcomed the Prince's decision Our royal correspondent

:06:35. > :06:40.Peter Hunt has the story. Prince Harry, who's embraced

:06:41. > :06:44.his mother's humanitarian causes, like landmines, is behaving in a way

:06:45. > :06:47.that's rare for royals. He's the most

:06:48. > :06:49.high-profile person yet to talk about the mental

:06:50. > :06:53.anguish he's suffered. In 1997, as the world

:06:54. > :06:57.quite literally watched, the child Prince walked behind the

:06:58. > :07:01.coffin of Diana, Princess of Wales, who was killed in

:07:02. > :07:04.a car crash in Paris. about the devastating impact

:07:05. > :07:11.of his mother's death. I can safely say that losing my mum

:07:12. > :07:15.at the age of 12, and therefore shutting down all of

:07:16. > :07:18.my emotions for the last 20 years, has had a quite serious effect

:07:19. > :07:22.on not only my personal life My way of dealing with it was

:07:23. > :07:28.refusing to ever think about my mum, It's only going to make you sad,

:07:29. > :07:37.it's not going to bring her back. Harry's failure to confront

:07:38. > :07:40.the loss of his fun-loving mum has meant he suffered from anxiety

:07:41. > :07:45.and came close to a breakdown. who encouraged him

:07:46. > :07:49.to see a counsellor. All of a sudden, all of this grief

:07:50. > :07:52.that I'd never processed I was like, "There's actually a lot

:07:53. > :07:57.of stuff here I need to deal with." It was 20 years

:07:58. > :07:59.of not thinking about it And as I'm sure you know, some of

:08:00. > :08:05.the easiest people to speak to is a shrink or whoever,

:08:06. > :08:09.the Americans call them shrinks, someone you've never met before,

:08:10. > :08:12.you sit down on the sofa and say, "Listen, I don't actually need

:08:13. > :08:15.your advice, can you just listen?" And you just let it all rip.

:08:16. > :08:18.And you've done that, have you? I've done that a couple of times.

:08:19. > :08:20.I'm not surprised. More than a couple of times,

:08:21. > :08:22.but it's great. For somebody in the public

:08:23. > :08:24.eye like Prince Harry, who has such a big reach,

:08:25. > :08:27.to do that and feel comfortable doing that, this is

:08:28. > :08:29.a significant step forward in terms of tackling the stigma

:08:30. > :08:32.around mental health. when she spoke about self-harming

:08:33. > :08:37.and her eating disorder. A generation on, the stiff upper lip

:08:38. > :08:42.is once again being abandoned. Harry is a privileged prince who

:08:43. > :08:45.lives here, at Kensington Palace. His position didn't protect him

:08:46. > :08:48.from ill-health. He now wants to use his status

:08:49. > :08:51.to encourage others suffering in silence to follow his example

:08:52. > :08:56.and seek help. It's a campaign championed

:08:57. > :08:59.by Kate, William and Harry. it's being supported

:09:00. > :09:04.by the London Marathon. The racing royals

:09:05. > :09:05.with influence hope it'll be

:09:06. > :09:08.a mental-health marathon. Peter Hunt, BBC News,

:09:09. > :09:13.Kensington Palace. International election monitors

:09:14. > :09:15.have strongly criticised Turkey's referendum,

:09:16. > :09:18.which gave the country's They've condemned

:09:19. > :09:23.last-minute changes to the way the vote was counted,

:09:24. > :09:27.and said there was state interference and media bias

:09:28. > :09:28.against the No campaign. But President Erdogan has

:09:29. > :09:30.dismissed the criticism, telling the monitors

:09:31. > :09:32.to know their place. Our world affairs editor,

:09:33. > :09:37.John Simpson, reports. Mr Erdogan was out in the streets

:09:38. > :09:41.of Istanbul this morning, of some of his more

:09:42. > :09:46.fervent supporters. He only won yesterday's

:09:47. > :09:49.referendum by a whisker, after staging the most expensive

:09:50. > :09:52.electoral campaign In Ankara, the capital,

:09:53. > :09:59.leaders of the OSCE, the international monitoring team

:10:00. > :10:05.who had observed the election, about the way the No campaign

:10:06. > :10:12.had been treated. The campaign rhetoric was tarnished

:10:13. > :10:15.by some senior officials equating No supporters

:10:16. > :10:20.with terrorist sympathisers. In numerous cases, No sympathisers

:10:21. > :10:24.faced police intervention and violent scuffles

:10:25. > :10:29.at their events. What effect is the referendum result

:10:30. > :10:33.going to have on Turkey? We went to the magnificent

:10:34. > :10:37.Grand Bazaar in Istanbul, Let me sell you something

:10:38. > :10:44.that you don't need. But, jokes aside, there is one

:10:45. > :10:49.important thing missing here - Wandering round,

:10:50. > :10:57.I couldn't spot a single one. The reason there are no

:10:58. > :11:00.Western tourists, says this businessman from the bazaar,

:11:01. > :11:04.is the terrorist attacks during the last one and a half

:11:05. > :11:07.years, and after that the crisis between Turkey and Europe over

:11:08. > :11:12.the referendum campaign. And given that tourism makes up 12%

:11:13. > :11:27.of Turkey's economy, that's serious. But these are worries

:11:28. > :11:29.for the future. For now, huge crowds greeted

:11:30. > :11:31.Mr Erdogan as he headed back to his capital,

:11:32. > :11:35.Ankara. Then, at the presidential palace,

:11:36. > :11:37.with his wife beside him, he didn't trouble to be diplomatic

:11:38. > :11:40.when he spoke to the crowd about the OSCE's criticisms

:11:41. > :11:47.of the referendum. "We won't accept their report,"

:11:48. > :11:49.he says, "We won't hear it,

:11:50. > :11:52.you can't convince us." He goes on, "The EU are threatening

:11:53. > :11:56.us with a freeze on negotiations." "It's not important to us,

:11:57. > :12:01.let them do it." But defiance alone doesn't make

:12:02. > :12:08.for a strong economy. Here, two men are in a serious

:12:09. > :12:18.but stable condition in hospital this evening,

:12:19. > :12:20.and ten others have suffered burns after a suspected acid attack

:12:21. > :12:23.at a nightclub in east London. Police believe the men,

:12:24. > :12:25.in their 20s, were targeted

:12:26. > :12:27.in the Mangle club in Hackney. This summer, some GCSE grades

:12:28. > :12:32.in England are changing, with A*-G being replaced by grades

:12:33. > :12:36.9-1 - a move that's creating "huge uncertainty", according

:12:37. > :12:41.to the teachers' union the NASUWT, who are holding their annual

:12:42. > :12:44.conference in Manchester. The Government says standards

:12:45. > :12:46.will go up because the content is more rigorous, and that bright

:12:47. > :12:48.pupils will have Our education editor

:12:49. > :12:55.Branwen Jeffreys reports. The new system has more grades

:12:56. > :12:57.and replaces letters with the numbers 9 to 1 -

:12:58. > :13:00.with 9 being the highest grade. It's all change for GCSE maths

:13:01. > :13:04.and English this year. Numbers, not letters,

:13:05. > :13:06.for grades, and new, tougher

:13:07. > :13:12.content for the exams. So Umi is getting extra help

:13:13. > :13:16.from her tutor, something many

:13:17. > :13:19.families can't afford. Even so, she's anxious

:13:20. > :13:21.about the exams. It's quite daunting,

:13:22. > :13:25.because lots of my teachers don't... They've never taught it before,

:13:26. > :13:28.so they're not used to the new syllabus

:13:29. > :13:31.that's coming in. Her mum, Kelly, is trying

:13:32. > :13:34.to get her head round it all. A grade 4 will be the

:13:35. > :13:38.same as a C or above, and a top grade of 9

:13:39. > :13:41.will be higher than an A*. She doesn't mind the exams'

:13:42. > :13:46.content being made harder. But to bring in a new grading system

:13:47. > :13:52.and make the whole exam structure tougher as well means that there's

:13:53. > :13:56.a lot that people have to deal Teachers have been debating

:13:57. > :14:04.the changes today. Their union, Nasuwt, says ministers

:14:05. > :14:08.are moving the goalposts. Headteachers move goalposts

:14:09. > :14:10.for yourself individually. But I think the Government

:14:11. > :14:13.have just taken them away. And we might actually

:14:14. > :14:16.be playing snooker. Generally, we are just very,

:14:17. > :14:18.very confused about and, actually, were they even

:14:19. > :14:22.necessary in the first place? In a system where everyone

:14:23. > :14:24.understands, A* to G, It's only England

:14:25. > :14:31.that's making these changes, starting with maths and English

:14:32. > :14:33.this year. Wales and Northern Ireland

:14:34. > :14:38.are sticking with letters. GCSEs are an important milestone

:14:39. > :14:42.in students' lives... Ministers say that's

:14:43. > :14:44.why high standards matter. They insist the new

:14:45. > :14:48.system will be fair, a grade 4 just as good as a grade C,

:14:49. > :14:53.but all that takes some explaining. It's one of France's

:14:54. > :14:59.most closely-contested Presidential elections ever -

:15:00. > :15:02.and candidates have just a few days The first round of

:15:03. > :15:07.voting is on Sunday. If - as expected -

:15:08. > :15:10.no candidate wins a majority, there'll be a run-off election

:15:11. > :15:13.between the top two contenders. And for the first time there

:15:14. > :15:15.are four candidates who Centrist Emmanuel Macron

:15:16. > :15:21.and far-right leader Marine Le Pen remain the front runners,

:15:22. > :15:24.but only narrowly. Conservative Francois Fillon

:15:25. > :15:27.is following closely behind. And now, after a last minute surge

:15:28. > :15:30.in support, far-left politician Jean-Luc Melenchon

:15:31. > :15:33.could make it too. Our correspondent Lucy

:15:34. > :15:37.Williamson sent this report. Jean-Luc Melenchon has been enjoying

:15:38. > :15:42.a different kind of political party, the kind which comes with a big

:15:43. > :15:44.group of people Once seen as the protest vote,

:15:45. > :15:52.the communist backed candidate has surged to within a couple of points

:15:53. > :15:57.of the presidential favourite, with his lively way of speaking

:15:58. > :16:00.and his anti-elitist TRANSLATION: This campaign has

:16:01. > :16:08.become more than a campaign, it is huge populist mobilisation

:16:09. > :16:13.which rings in a new dawn. Mr Melenchon wants to pull

:16:14. > :16:20.France out of EU treaties, ramp up public spending

:16:21. > :16:24.and introduce a top rate tax of 90%. Frederick hasn't voted for anyone

:16:25. > :16:28.in more than a decade. TRANSLATION: I am a worker

:16:29. > :16:31.and most workers today vote for the right or the far right,

:16:32. > :16:36.it is not in their interests. Camille says she is 80%

:16:37. > :16:39.sure of voting for him and that her friends are leaning

:16:40. > :16:44.towards him too. All my friends are going to vote

:16:45. > :16:48.Melenchon, all of them. I think there is really a big

:16:49. > :16:52.change among people my age The Trump election made me realise

:16:53. > :17:00.that I need to take a position. Campaigners for the liberal

:17:01. > :17:06.favourite, Emmanuel Macron, are now targeting underprivileged

:17:07. > :17:10.areas where his far-left rival is expected to do well,

:17:11. > :17:14.with specially written leaflets and instructions to target

:17:15. > :17:18.Melenchon supporters, Nobody knows what will happen,

:17:19. > :17:25.that is why we are here today, because we have to convince more

:17:26. > :17:29.and more people to vote for him. This is now becoming a four-way race

:17:30. > :17:32.with three of the candidates seen as political outsiders and a third

:17:33. > :17:38.of voters still undecided. Analysts say France is in uncharted

:17:39. > :17:41.territory and the election Mr Melenchon first drew attention

:17:42. > :17:48.to his campaign by appearing He is planning to appear

:17:49. > :17:53.simultaneously If this election has shown anything,

:17:54. > :17:59.it is that the constraints of one candidate or another,

:18:00. > :18:03.can turn out to be just Brighton and Hove Albion

:18:04. > :18:13.fans are celebrating tonight after making it

:18:14. > :18:16.into the Premier League next season. Their victory over Wigan Athletic -

:18:17. > :18:18.and results elsewhere - mean they will return to the top

:18:19. > :18:21.flight of English football Our correspondent Andy

:18:22. > :18:37.Swiss has the story. A day for the so-called seagulls to

:18:38. > :18:42.make some noise, and when you have waited 34 years, who could blame

:18:43. > :18:47.them? In that time, Brighton have tumbled to the brink of oblivion but

:18:48. > :18:52.when they sealed a 2-1 win, their remarkable rise was complete. At the

:18:53. > :18:58.final whistle, the fans flooded onto the pitch for an impromptu promotion

:18:59. > :19:04.party, in golfing the players and in Lewes dunks' case, removing pretty

:19:05. > :19:07.much all of his clothes. Celebrations on the set, for the

:19:08. > :19:12.fans, the Premier League finally awaits. More money, better players,

:19:13. > :19:17.the whole thing is fantastic, best day ever. We have been waiting 34

:19:18. > :19:23.years and finally we are here now. Unbelievable. It is the best day of

:19:24. > :19:30.my life, apart from my wife and kids. In 1983 Brighton also reached

:19:31. > :19:36.the FA Cup final and might have won it. But after that last blast this,

:19:37. > :19:40.they lost a replay to Manchester United and went into freefall. In

:19:41. > :19:46.1997 they were nearly liquidated. They had to play at a local

:19:47. > :19:49.athletics track. But now with a gleaming new stadium, how those

:19:50. > :19:53.frustrations have faded. An amazing day and one that we will remember

:19:54. > :19:58.for the rest of our lives. To do with this group of players, the

:19:59. > :20:05.chairman and fans, it is an unbelievable football club. For the

:20:06. > :20:07.fans and the players, once again the big time beckons.

:20:08. > :20:10.That's all from me tonight, stay with us on BBC One,
