:19:49. > :19:54.I mostly have abdominal pain on my right or my left side.
:19:55. > :19:58.It feels like a needle is inside your stomach.
:19:59. > :20:06.So then you don't want to do anything, you just want to have,
:20:07. > :20:10.you just want to rest and hope it goes away.
:20:11. > :20:15.Come for your medication, sweetheart.
:20:16. > :20:19.Around 300 children are born with sickle cell every year
:20:20. > :20:22.and a stroke is more than 300 times more common in a child
:20:23. > :20:27.That's one of the worries for Matthew's mum, who's been
:20:28. > :20:31.dealing with his illness since he was six months old.
:20:32. > :20:35.He's a little fighter, like I always said.
:20:36. > :20:44.You know, it is emotionally breaking him down.
:20:45. > :20:51.In a healthy person, red blood cells are usually smooth and round.
:20:52. > :20:58.But when you have sickle cell, some cells are abnormally shaped.
:20:59. > :21:03.They are stiff and sticky and can clump together.
:21:04. > :21:07.That then blocks blood flow, restricting oxygen
:21:08. > :21:13.20-year-old university student Daniel has survived five strokes
:21:14. > :21:24.I couldn't push myself to do anything, even if I tried.
:21:25. > :21:28.So I just sort of stayed in bed and then I think my mum found
:21:29. > :21:33.She lifted up my hand and it would completely drop down,
:21:34. > :21:38.The next thing I remember is just my brother carrying
:21:39. > :21:43.So what hope is there for Daniel, Matthew, and thousands of others?
:21:44. > :21:45.Doctors are hopeful that gene therapy will eventually
:21:46. > :21:54.But it is still in the early stages of development and there are talks
:21:55. > :21:58.The exciting thing that's happened recently is that one child in France
:21:59. > :22:02.has been successfully treated with gene therapy, where the bone
:22:03. > :22:05.marrow is taken from the child and then the bone marrow is repaired
:22:06. > :22:11.But it is hopeful that, having done it successfully once,
:22:12. > :22:14.this will then expand quite quickly to be more widely available.
:22:15. > :22:18.For Matthew, those are hopes to hold onto for a chance of a healthy life.
:22:19. > :22:26.Cricket now and England have won the fourth and final Test
:22:27. > :22:27.against South Africa at Old Trafford.
:22:28. > :22:30.They won by 177 runs, meaning they win the series 3-1.
:22:31. > :22:35.Patrick Gearey reports from Old Trafford.
:22:36. > :22:38.Day four, the morning after the downpour before.
:22:39. > :22:44.Hard to predict how long Old Trafford would stay dry
:22:45. > :22:47.but England knew one day like this that's clear could see them right.
:22:48. > :22:50.Last orders for South Africa in this series.
:22:51. > :22:54.Rain offered them temporary protection but when it cleared,
:22:55. > :22:59.Heino Kuhn and Temba Bavuma could also sit down early for lunch.
:23:00. > :23:03.But in Hashim Amla, South Africa have a rare endurance batsman.
:23:04. > :23:06.For a while, England could see no way past him
:23:07. > :23:11.He was safe if his bat had touched the ball.
:23:12. > :23:14.The third umpire thought it hadn't - out.
:23:15. > :23:17.Was that the moment South Africa knew they were done?
:23:18. > :23:21.De Kock, De Bruyne, departed, sent on their way by Moeen Ali.
:23:22. > :23:23.Captain Du Plessis could only watch and eventually follow.
:23:24. > :23:28.The game was finished by the Man of the Match
:23:29. > :23:35.It had taken a while but it was now looking like a beautiful day.
:23:36. > :23:37.So all done before tomorrow's predicted rain.
:23:38. > :23:40.England are not perfect but Joe Root's first series
:23:41. > :23:42.as captain has finished with an impressive win
:23:43. > :23:48.and with the Ashes coming, Australia will have been watching.
:23:49. > :23:51.It's the start of something. It's going to take time to develop.
:23:52. > :23:58.If we want to be more consistent and make sure that we, you know,
:23:59. > :24:01.we keep challenging the best teams in the world, then we are going
:24:02. > :24:03.to have to continue to look to improve and develop individually
:24:04. > :24:10.Will this be the side that faces Australia in Brisbane?
:24:11. > :24:13.But they have just lifted above them in the world rankings.
:24:14. > :24:24.Athletics, and a frustrating day for Team GB.
:24:25. > :24:28.At the World Championships, short on ago, Laura Muir agonisingly missed
:24:29. > :24:30.out on a medal in the women's 1500 metres.
:24:31. > :24:33.Earlier, Sophie Hitchon finished seventh in the women's hammer.
:24:34. > :24:37.From the London Stadium, Natalie Pirks reports.
:24:38. > :24:43.Scotland's very own Laura Muir, running for Great Britain. The odds
:24:44. > :24:48.and talented field were stacked against her. Britain has never had a
:24:49. > :24:52.champion in the women's's 1500 metres so going out hard and fast
:24:53. > :24:57.was the clear decision. Only one tactic here, run for gold. But the
:24:58. > :25:02.second lap was slow, giving others the chance to get in the game. On
:25:03. > :25:05.the bell, Laura Muir made her move. With grit and determination etched
:25:06. > :25:11.on her face, she dug deep with bronze well within her grasp the
:25:12. > :25:14.final straight but from nowhere, 800 metres specialist Caster Semenya
:25:15. > :25:21.found speed and perfect timing to snatch it away. 0.07 seconds
:25:22. > :25:25.separated Laura Muir from her first global medal. I gave it everything I
:25:26. > :25:29.could but the last 15 metres, I tied up and before I knew it, she went
:25:30. > :25:33.past me but I gave everything I could. I think considering the
:25:34. > :25:38.disruptions I've had this year, you know, I gave it all I could and that
:25:39. > :25:42.was all I could do. Sophie Hitchon's jubilation at her surprise bronze in
:25:43. > :25:45.Rio was one of the highlights of the Games and the former ballerina got
:25:46. > :25:51.off to a great start in the hammock age. But Poland's Anita Wlodarczyk
:25:52. > :25:57.was setting the gold standard and Sophie Hitchon's Forth throw went
:25:58. > :25:59.nowhere. She never recovered. British tears are unfortunately
:26:00. > :26:06.becoming a familiar image at these championships. Could not quite find
:26:07. > :26:12.the rhythm I had in qualification. I knew I was in better shape and just
:26:13. > :26:16.disappointed. Not producing it tonight. World record-holder and
:26:17. > :26:19.Olympic 400 metres champion Wayde van Niekerk is attempting to emulate
:26:20. > :26:24.Michael Johnson this week by doubling up in the 400 and 200
:26:25. > :26:31.metres. It means he will race six times in six days. With no Usain
:26:32. > :26:36.Bolt in the 200, there will be a new world champion but there are a
:26:37. > :26:38.number of British athletes hoping to crash the party. Daniel Talbot
:26:39. > :26:42.tracked Wayde van Niekerk all the way in the first heat to make it
:26:43. > :26:46.through to Wednesday's semifinal and Zharnel Hughes made it through as a
:26:47. > :26:51.fastest loser. The trio is completed by Mitchell Blake, Britain's second
:26:52. > :26:54.fastest 200 metres runner of all time. Natalie Pirks, BBC News at the
:26:55. > :27:01.Let's speak to our Sports Editor Dan Roan, who's at the London Stadium.
:27:02. > :27:08.Desperately disappointing for Laura Muir. She was so close and it has
:27:09. > :27:13.been a frustrating day the Team GB. It has, ever since Laura Muir broke
:27:14. > :27:16.Kelly Holmes' British 1500 metres record, she's been regarded as the
:27:17. > :27:22.best chance the country has of a medal, outside of Sir Mo Farah.
:27:23. > :27:26.She's had a fantastic breakthrough season, especially indoors, the
:27:27. > :27:32.24-year-old Scottish athlete but in truth, she was always up against it
:27:33. > :27:37.a highly competitive field in the 1500 final. Faith Kipyegon, as you
:27:38. > :27:40.saw in the report, she won the race and Caster Semenya, the South
:27:41. > :27:43.African who many feel has an unfair advantage because of her naturally
:27:44. > :27:50.elevated testosterone levels are denying Laura Muir a bronze medal
:27:51. > :27:54.and she adds to a growing list of British athletes, the likes of Holly
:27:55. > :27:56.Bradshaw and Sophie Hitchon, Katarina Johnson-Thompson, who have
:27:57. > :27:59.finished just outside the medals and it means after the fourth day of the
:28:00. > :28:04.World Championships, the British team only have one solitary gold
:28:05. > :28:09.medal from Sir Mo Farah. They will hope for a few more, perhaps in the
:28:10. > :28:13.relay and Sir Mo Farah runs again in the 5000 metres at the weekend but
:28:14. > :28:16.when you compare it to the seven medals they won in Beijing two years
:28:17. > :28:21.ago, it is going to be hard for them to match it this time around. Some
:28:22. > :28:25.other News for you, Wayde van Niekerk, the best chance the sport
:28:26. > :28:28.has of replacing Usain Bolt as its biggest star, his chances of success
:28:29. > :28:34.in the 200 and 400 metres have improved because Isaac Makwala,
:28:35. > :28:37.Botswana, as pulled out with illness and it could be rated this statement
:28:38. > :28:41.from the local organising committee which says a number of cases of
:28:42. > :28:44.gastroenteritis have been reported in one of the official hotels for
:28:45. > :28:47.the World Championships and those affected have been supported by
:28:48. > :28:50.medical staff and further advice and guidelines have been issued to team
:28:51. > :28:53.doctors and support staff as a result. Dan Roan, thank you.
:28:54. > :28:55.From bucket and spades at the beach to nipping across the Channel
:28:56. > :29:00.Brits have a long history of seeking out sun or
:29:01. > :29:06.But our holiday habits have changed dramatically over
:29:07. > :29:08.the past couple of decades, according to new figures from
:29:09. > :29:17.The great British holiday. It has changed a lot over the last century.
:29:18. > :29:23.This is Blackpool in the 1920s when huge numbers flocked to the seaside
:29:24. > :29:28.in search of sunshine and sand. By the 1970s, overseas holidays were
:29:29. > :29:31.still mostly reserved for the most affluent of Britons, with Butlins
:29:32. > :29:36.and Brighton remaining popular summer destinations closer to home.
:29:37. > :29:40.But the arrival of low-cost airlines in the 1990s began the boom in
:29:41. > :29:47.foreign travel. 27 million flu overseas in 1996. 20 years later, 45
:29:48. > :29:53.million Britons chose to spend their holidays abroad. Over the past 20
:29:54. > :29:59.years, there's been a revolution in travel and that has been driven by
:30:00. > :30:03.the budget airlines. If you go back to November 1995, when easyJet
:30:04. > :30:06.started up, basically the number of people travelling has doubled and
:30:07. > :30:12.many of them are simply taking advantage of cheap fares to go right
:30:13. > :30:16.across Europe. But while we are flying further afield, we are
:30:17. > :30:19.spending less time there, with a seven night stay proving three times
:30:20. > :30:23.more popular than a fortnight away for Britain's last year. And
:30:24. > :30:28.remember the so-called booze cruises of the 90s, a chance to stock up on
:30:29. > :30:32.alcohol and cigarettes? Those have all but disappeared. In their place,
:30:33. > :30:36.cruises of a different kind have soared in popularity since the 1990s
:30:37. > :30:41.with more than four times as many now being taken. And the top spots
:30:42. > :30:44.for Brits are France and Spain, still, the most popular destinations
:30:45. > :30:49.with Spain topping the poll. The number of visits there are up by 87%
:30:50. > :30:53.in the last 20 years. We could do with a bit about Spanish sunshine
:30:54. > :30:55.here! The weather is coming up soon but that is
