:00:30. > :00:31.The scale of modern slavery in Britain is much bigger

:00:57. > :01:02.as he spells out the consequences of any plans to attack.
:01:03. > :01:12.Because things will happen to them like they never thought possible.

:02:12. > :02:16.That's the warning from the National Crime Agency.
:02:17. > :02:18.It says the number of people affected by modern slavery
:02:19. > :02:21.across Britain is thought to be in the tens of thousands,
:02:22. > :02:25.and people may encounter victims in everyday life without realising.
:02:26. > :02:28.More than 300 police operations are currently targeting

:03:24. > :03:26.Those dedicated to stopping the traffickers know the road
:03:27. > :03:33.Some of the individuals have been through horrific experiences.
:03:34. > :03:39.They're living in horrendous conditions and all this is to keep
:03:40. > :03:44.them in line so that they don't even think about escaping.
:03:45. > :03:47.The police and Hope For Justice investigators find trafficking
:03:48. > :03:51.and slavery across the country, from building sites to brothels,
:03:52. > :03:57.What's happened to you is not OK and it's actually a crime.
:03:58. > :04:02.An ancient crime, in Britain, in 2017.
:04:03. > :04:05.Filthy living conditions, long hours, slave wages.
:04:06. > :04:12.I do, yeah, just purely from what's happening to them.
:04:13. > :04:17.They're getting limited finances, they're controlled by the boss.
:04:18. > :04:19.Their living accommodation is controlled by the boss
:04:20. > :04:21.and the boss has taken their ID and passport documents,
:04:22. > :04:25.so they have no means of leaving even if they wanted to.
:04:26. > :04:29.Some victims are constantly on the move, used as objects
:04:30. > :04:33.for backbreaking work, controlled by fear.
:04:34. > :04:36.This man is being supported by the Palm Cove charity
:04:37. > :04:42.after suffering four months of hard labour, for ?140.
:04:43. > :04:44.It's just horrible, I tell you, it's just horrible.
:04:45. > :04:49.Even now I just feel like my heart starts beating a little bit.
:04:50. > :05:01.You could have opened the door and walked out.
:05:02. > :05:09.I don't know, I don't know, I was scared, scared.
:05:10. > :05:12.What was going to happen if he comes after me.
:05:13. > :05:14.So they've got the pin code and the card.
:05:15. > :05:19.Back in Bradford our Polish couple are finally into safety,
:05:20. > :05:21.just beginning to find the confidence to tell the team
:05:22. > :05:30.Of his long hours on the building sites, of her endless shifts.
:05:31. > :05:40.It's the traffickers, tracking them down.
:05:41. > :05:52.When we're going to see each other, we're going to have a talk.
:05:53. > :05:58.I'm giving you my word of honour that we will see each other
:05:59. > :06:01.and when we see each other we're going to talk.
:06:02. > :06:06.We've heard them making indirect threats to them over the phone.
:06:07. > :06:09.What we're doing today is recovering human beings.
:06:10. > :06:15.And for those who can't run, the best hope is rescue.
:06:16. > :06:28.Simultaneous raids on two backstreet brothels.
:06:29. > :06:30.The modern slavery unit, acting on intelligence that young,
:06:31. > :06:35.Eastern European women are being exploited as prostitutes.
:06:36. > :06:39.The priority is to get to the women, to reassure them.
:06:40. > :06:43.We can help safeguard you and see if there's anything else we can do.
:06:44. > :06:46.And then they're led away to a place of safety,
:06:47. > :06:51.perhaps to the beginning of something better than this.
:06:52. > :06:52.This is people's lives that it's affecting,
:06:53. > :06:55.so it's essential that we get it right in how we investigate
:06:56. > :07:00.We have seen an increase in these offences.
:07:01. > :07:04.We're not afraid to tackle it and go and take it on.
:07:05. > :07:07.I'm arresting you now on suspicion of modern slavery...
:07:08. > :07:12.Taking it on means that as well as rescues there are arrests.
:07:13. > :07:14.So a successful operation, arrests have been made and victims
:07:15. > :07:21.But in many ways all of this is just the beginning.
:07:22. > :07:25.The women from the brothel have now arrived at a safe location,
:07:26. > :07:28.specialists from the Palm Cove charity piecing
:07:29. > :07:34.They can choose to enter the national referral
:07:35. > :07:39.mechanism, which offers safe housing and support.
:07:40. > :07:41.But it only lasts 45 days and there are warnings that victims
:07:42. > :07:46.emerge still vulnerable, at risk of re-trafficking.
:07:47. > :07:50.If we are not breaking that cycle then all that work goes to waste,
:07:51. > :07:53.so it's really crucial to concentrate on the long-term
:07:54. > :07:57.sustainable support for victims and survivors of human trafficking
:07:58. > :08:07.It's that vicious cycle which can be so damaging.
:08:08. > :08:10.In a secret location we meet a young woman who's escaped a life
:08:11. > :08:14.of prostitution several times - only to be re-trafficked.
:08:15. > :08:18.The life now, this time it's much better.
:08:19. > :08:21.The charity which runs this place knows the danger
:08:22. > :08:24.and unlike the official programme it offers refuge for as
:08:25. > :08:32.Finally the support she needs - counselling, a vital
:08:33. > :08:38.The way she's been treated is like she's not a human.
:08:39. > :08:43.Physically being used and physically assaulted, sexually abused,
:08:44. > :08:47.being used like she's a piece of meat - and repeatedly,
:08:48. > :08:52.you know, day in, day out, multiple times throughout the day.
:08:53. > :08:56.When you think about those people who did that to you and may be doing
:08:57. > :08:59.that to other people today, what do you think of them?
:09:00. > :09:11.All of the painstaking police work is about bringing
:09:12. > :09:16.Any particular reason why you have their passports?
:09:17. > :09:21.The Prime Minister calls it the greatest human
:09:22. > :09:29.Modern slavery, a widespread crime, behind closed doors,
:09:30. > :09:39.And if you want to contact the Modern Slavery Helpline,
:09:40. > :09:48.the number is at the bottom of the screen now.
:09:49. > :09:51.President Trump has again ramped up his warnings
:09:52. > :09:53.to North Korea tonight, saying his threat to unleash "fire
:09:54. > :09:56.and fury" if Pyongyang threatened the United States may not have
:09:57. > :10:00.He said North Korea should "very, very nervous" if it attacked
:10:01. > :10:04.the United States, or any of its allies.
:10:05. > :10:07.His latest warning came after North Korea said
:10:08. > :10:10.it was working on plans to fire four missiles over Japan
:10:11. > :10:13.which would land off the coast of the US territory of Guam.
:10:14. > :10:19.From Washington, our North America correspondent Nick Bryant reports.
:10:20. > :10:22.It's from his golf club in New Jersey during his working
:10:23. > :10:26.vacation that Donald Trump is managing this stand-off.
:10:27. > :10:30.And this afternoon he was back in his trademark suit and tie,
:10:31. > :10:33.and using his trademark tough talk, his response to the latest
:10:34. > :10:40.I will tell you this, if North Korea does anything
:10:41. > :10:44.in terms of even thinking about attack, of anybody
:10:45. > :10:48.that we love or we represent or our allies or us,
:10:49. > :10:55.And they should be very nervous, because things will happen to them
:10:56. > :11:01.Earlier this week he warned North Korea of fire and fury,
:11:02. > :11:04.raising the chilling spectre of nuclear confrontation.
:11:05. > :11:10.Maybe that fiery rhetoric wasn't incendiary enough.
:11:11. > :11:13.The people that were questioning that statement, was it too tough,
:11:14. > :11:18.They've been doing this to our country for a long time,
:11:19. > :11:20.for many years, and it's about time that somebody stuck up
:11:21. > :11:23.for the people of this country and for the people of other
:11:24. > :11:25.countries, so if anything, maybe that statement
:11:26. > :11:32.Earlier, on news bulletins in North Korea, the customary
:11:33. > :11:40.martial music and also an unusually specific military threat.
:11:41. > :11:43.The Hwasong 12 rocket will be launched by the North Korean
:11:44. > :11:49.People's Army and will cross Japan and fly 3356 kilometres for 1065
:11:50. > :11:55.seconds, before hitting the waters 30 to 40 kilometres away from Guam.
:11:56. > :11:59.This is the Hwasong 12 missile on parade in Pyongyang in spring.
:12:00. > :12:03.Kim Jong-un can back his fiery words with weaponry.
:12:04. > :12:06.Today, on the tropical island of Guam, it wasn't so much
:12:07. > :12:09.a case of fire and fury, as wet and wild.
:12:10. > :12:11.The news crews converging there producing what looked
:12:12. > :12:14.like tourist advertisements, people heading to the beach
:12:15. > :12:19.Locals not particularly concerned at the threat that North Korea
:12:20. > :12:27.We're used to the whole ebb and flow of hearing that we're going to be
:12:28. > :12:30.bombed and then it not happening, and hearing about it again, so it's
:12:31. > :12:38.He never follows through, so I wasn't really concerned.
:12:39. > :12:40.I think it's probably like a distraction maybe,
:12:41. > :12:45.maybe a political kind of move on the US and Korea,
:12:46. > :12:50.Guam is in the firing line because it is American territory
:12:51. > :12:52.that is home to two big US military bases.
:12:53. > :13:01.An attack here would be an attack on America.
:13:02. > :13:08.As well as refusing to back down from the threat of fire and fury,
:13:09. > :13:11.Donald Trump did say that he would consider negotiations with North
:13:12. > :13:22.Korea. He also spoke of his ambition, as he put it, to de-nuke
:13:23. > :13:25.the world. But there is this fear of a terrible miss calculation that
:13:26. > :13:28.could turn this war of words into a military confrontation. Nick Bryant
:13:29. > :13:30.in Washington, thank you. A number of supermarkets have taken
:13:31. > :13:33.products containing eggs - like sandwiches and salads -
:13:34. > :13:35.off the shelves, after it emerged that 700,000 eggs,
:13:36. > :13:37.potentially contaminated with pesticide, have made their way
:13:38. > :13:39.into the UK's food chain. But officials say any risk to public
:13:40. > :13:42.health is very unlikely. The eggs came from Holland, where
:13:43. > :13:45.police raids were carried out today. This Belgian farmer has had
:13:46. > :13:54.to destroy not just his The produce contaminated
:13:55. > :14:00.with Fipranol, an insecticide which is banned for use
:14:01. > :14:06.in the food chain. But that's where it's ended up,
:14:07. > :14:11.on a potentially massive scale. TRANSLATION: You cannot put your
:14:12. > :14:14.eggs on the market for three months. And so I took the decision
:14:15. > :14:16.to kill the animals, More than 100 farms are affected
:14:17. > :14:23.in the Netherlands too, And millions of eggs have now been
:14:24. > :14:27.pulled from supermarket The reason - Fipranol may be popular
:14:28. > :14:36.for getting rid of fleas on pets, Here in the UK, we produce our own
:14:37. > :14:55.eggs, but also import them. Here in the UK, we produce our own
:14:56. > :14:58.eggs, ubt also import them. And some of the eggs from affected
:14:59. > :15:01.farms have ended up here too. We're not talking about the kind
:15:02. > :15:04.of fresh eggs like these, The affected eggs went
:15:05. > :15:07.into processed foods, Just a few days ago
:15:08. > :15:11.the Food Standards Agency said Sounds a lot, but that's just 0.007%
:15:12. > :15:20.of all the eggs we eat every year. There's no reason why people
:15:21. > :15:23.should avoid eating eggs. Our assessment is, it is very
:15:24. > :15:25.unlikely there is any But we think people deserve food
:15:26. > :15:32.they can trust, and that means not having food that has in it
:15:33. > :15:35.a substance that simply Four supermarkets are
:15:36. > :15:37.withdrawing a limited number But others will already
:15:38. > :15:42.have been consumed. Yet another food scare,
:15:43. > :15:46.highlighting just how complex supply chains can be,
:15:47. > :15:48.and how easily problems can spread. Two months after the devastating
:15:49. > :15:57.fire at Grenfell Tower in West London, it has emerged that
:15:58. > :16:01.only a small amount of the ?18 million raised to help survivors
:16:02. > :16:03.has been handed out. The figures have come
:16:04. > :16:05.from the Charity Commission. Our news correspondent
:16:06. > :16:17.Frankie McCamley is here. well want the Charity commission say
:16:18. > :16:21.is that this is one of the most complex fundraising operations and
:16:22. > :16:26.has had to deal with. It is working with a number of charities that have
:16:27. > :16:31.raised more than ?18 million. Audits figures have shown today is that of
:16:32. > :16:35.that amount just 2.5 million has been distributed. Speaking to local
:16:36. > :16:39.residents, people who lived in the tower, there is anger and
:16:40. > :16:43.frustration building. People questioning whether money is, why
:16:44. > :16:46.they haven't seen it. The charities commission does say there were
:16:47. > :16:56.initial teething problems. They couldn't identify some of the people
:16:57. > :16:58.who needed this money. Say that some people haven't come forward yet,
:16:59. > :17:01.perhaps because they are traumatised and they want to respect that. It
:17:02. > :17:04.also says it wants to look at a long-term plan and that is what some
:17:05. > :17:07.of the charities are doing, they are holding some money back. They want
:17:08. > :17:08.to speak to the local community to plan for the future. Frankie

:18:01. > :18:04.dependence on the service sector, which makes up about four-fifths
:18:05. > :18:09.of the UK's economic output. The number of people
:18:10. > :18:18.waiting for routine surgery in England in June, was
:18:19. > :18:21.at its highest for nearly ten years. NHS England has admitted that more
:18:22. > :18:23.than 4 million people Other key targets missed include
:18:24. > :18:27.urgent referrals for cancer care, as our Health Editor Hugh Pym
:18:28. > :18:29.reports. He's had his operation but he had
:18:30. > :18:32.to wait a long time for it. Andy waited more
:18:33. > :18:37.than 40 weeks before going in for surgery on his foot
:18:38. > :18:40.to relieve serious arthritis. During that long delay,
:18:41. > :18:44.everyday life became I couldn't walk great
:18:45. > :18:48.distances, and it was to sort of try and keep
:18:49. > :18:55.the pain down. And although I do IT
:18:56. > :18:58.work and sit at a desk all day, I was finding
:18:59. > :19:00.the middle of the afternoon I had to stop, lie down,
:19:01. > :19:03.and put my feet up just because it was too painful
:19:04. > :19:05.to sit any longer. The total waiting list
:19:06. > :19:08.for routine surgery in England fell back a decade ago
:19:09. > :19:10.after government investment. But in recent years,
:19:11. > :19:12.it's crept back up again, and in June, it's estimated to have
:19:13. > :19:15.gone above 4 million. Most worrying of all
:19:16. > :19:18.perhaps is that this is the sign of a trend that is going
:19:19. > :19:21.in the wrong direction. Progressively we are seeing
:19:22. > :19:23.more and more people And with continuing
:19:24. > :19:27.austerity there is no end Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn,
:19:28. > :19:36.campaigning at a hospital today, said the NHS could not go

:19:39. > :19:44.were being let down, with sharp increases in waiting
:19:45. > :19:48.times for treatment. But NHS England argued that more

:19:52. > :19:56.than nine out of ten patients We're working hard to
:19:57. > :20:02.cut long waits and the number of patients waiting over
:20:03. > :20:04.a year for treatment has dropped." Key waiting time performance targets
:20:05. > :20:07.have been missed again but NHS England's leaders are stressing
:20:08. > :20:10.today that in an important aspect of emergency care,

:20:24. > :20:32.Ireland have also seen rising waiting lists
:20:33. > :20:34.for surgery, though with Andy's 10-month wait

:21:13. > :21:20.report distressing. It's probably only a 20, 30-second
:21:21. > :21:26.thing, but it feels like an hour. This was Robbie Potter
:21:27. > :21:33.with his girlfriend, Leonora, after the Manchester Arena
:21:34. > :21:36.explosion. They stood next to the attacker
:21:37. > :21:46.and lived to tell the tale. I actually looked at
:21:47. > :21:48.the idiot, the bomber. I will never ask his name,
:21:49. > :21:55.I don't want to know his name. There's no point hating a man
:21:56. > :21:57.that's already dead. They had gone to collect
:21:58. > :22:03.their kids from the concert. The children were safe inside,
:22:04. > :22:05.but their parents were in the lobby The brightest flash I have
:22:06. > :22:10.ever seen in my life. It was like a cloud
:22:11. > :22:13.of mercury exploding. You see bits of silver flying
:22:14. > :22:15.everywhere, which was obviously the bolts and nuts he'd packed
:22:16. > :22:18.into his bag and his body. My girlfriend went
:22:19. > :22:19.flying, hit the floor. There was a group of four or five
:22:20. > :22:24.kids, I think there were. I just jumped in front of them
:22:25. > :22:27.and told them to follow me, She dived, where she obviously
:22:28. > :22:33.collapsed and fell on the floor, but I found out I'd punctured my
:22:34. > :22:37.lung and had a couple of bolts You came very close
:22:38. > :22:40.to not surviving. The doctor called me
:22:41. > :22:49.the miracle lad. Even after the operation,
:22:50. > :22:51.I don't think they thought. This bolt fired from the bomb
:22:52. > :22:55.straight into Robbie's heart. He cheated death
:22:56. > :22:57.by a hair's breadth. You can see the two ribs here,
:22:58. > :23:01.that's the back of the ribs... The bolt was removed with incredible
:23:02. > :23:03.precision by this surgeon It was wedged between the back
:23:04. > :23:13.wall and the front wall of the two blood vessels,
:23:14. > :23:15.so a millimetre either way Thankfully it didn't,
:23:16. > :23:19.but we wouldn't be having this One, two, three, four,
:23:20. > :23:28.I declare a thumb war. Robbie's daughter Tegan
:23:29. > :23:31.was separated from her dad Next time she saw him,
:23:32. > :23:34.he was in a coma. She called him names
:23:35. > :23:38.to try and wake him up. It's just hard to see, with him just
:23:39. > :23:42.lying there, not talking. Tegan said "Come on
:23:43. > :23:53.Fathead, it's Peahead." Obviously that's our names
:23:54. > :23:55.we call each other. And as soon as that happened,
:23:56. > :23:59.the eyes just lifted. Robbie's girlfriend Leonora was also
:24:00. > :24:07.badly hurt and sedated in hospital. Waking up, she didn't know
:24:08. > :24:11.what had happened to him. The first question I asked was,
:24:12. > :24:13.where is he, and they said Leonora has multiple fractures
:24:14. > :24:22.to both of her legs. She and Robbie each face many
:24:23. > :24:26.months of rehabilitation. We want to look after each other
:24:27. > :24:33.but we can't do that. We can't do that because we
:24:34. > :24:35.are both on the mend. Before the blast,
:24:36. > :24:40.Robbie played rugby. Now every step is an effort,
:24:41. > :24:57.but he says he's determined that Now there was no fairy tale ending
:24:58. > :25:01.for Isaac Makwala of Botswana, the star sprinter, in the final of the
:25:02. > :25:04.men's 200 metres in the World Championships in London, he had
:25:05. > :25:08.fought hard to get there after being banned from the stadium this week
:25:09. > :25:15.after an oral virus outbreak. In the end it wasn't to be, as our sports
:25:16. > :25:20.correspondent Andy Swiss reports. He has become the and heralded hero of
:25:21. > :25:24.these championships so after beating illness could Isaac Makwala Beatties
:25:25. > :25:31.rivals, among them Wayde van Niekirk of South Africa following his 400
:25:32. > :25:34.metres victory? Isaac Makwala burst out of the blocks but would the
:25:35. > :25:40.extraordinary last couple of days catch up with him? Berdych hopes lay
:25:41. > :25:45.with Mitchell- Blake but as they rented the bend it was too close to
:25:46. > :25:48.call. Wade fan Nick charged but it was an unexpected name that grabbed
:25:49. > :25:55.the headlines. COMMENTATOR: It's Guliyev! Turkey's Guliyev taking
:25:56. > :26:00.gold ahead of Wayde van Niekirk with Mitchell- Blake Forth and Isaac
:26:01. > :26:07.Makwala six. For the Botswana runner after such hope, disappointment. I
:26:08. > :26:17.had a good day yesterday, I think it boosted me a lot. Earlier there had
:26:18. > :26:22.been hopes of a British medal for Eilidh Doyle, that Carter of America
:26:23. > :26:27.took gold, while Doyle, the British team captain, came last. In the
:26:28. > :26:32.women's 5000 metres Laura Miller is back on track after just missing a
:26:33. > :26:37.medal in the 1500 -- Laura Muir. It's a chance to make a mark. She
:26:38. > :26:41.seemed to be cruising in her heat but by the end Laura was struggling,
:26:42. > :26:47.trailing in seventh, exhausted. She's scraped through to the final
:26:48. > :26:54.but has a disappointment in the 1500 metres taken its toll? The might
:26:55. > :27:02.ultimately to this man. Isaac Makwala may have taken the pundits
:27:03. > :27:07.but it is Guliyev who has the title. Andy Swiss, BBC news.
:27:08. > :27:12.Our Sports Editor Dan Roan is in the London Stadium.
:27:13. > :27:19.So it wasn't to be for Isaac Makwala. That's right, but I think
:27:20. > :27:23.it will still be the greatest story of this Championships, he came here
:27:24. > :27:28.relatively unheralded and by tonight he is one of the worst won most
:27:29. > :27:33.well-known athletes in the world. It has become a saga, visitors forced
:27:34. > :27:37.withdrawal through illness and then this remarkable scenes when he was
:27:38. > :27:42.denied access to the stadium by the IAAF officials and then his
:27:43. > :27:46.reinstatement. He's received great sympathy and affection. A shame he
:27:47. > :27:50.could not finish with a win. A rather embarrassing episode for the
:27:51. > :27:55.IAAF, the way it was handled. Wayde van Niekirk was also denied an
:27:56. > :27:58.historic double gold. It just underlines that once again the
:27:59. > :28:03.scripts which perhaps the organisers would like to see happen don't
:28:04. > :28:05.always come to pass in sport. Dam, thank you.

:28:32. > :28:44.It was, I think, an attempt by me to bridge my ageing writing
:28:45. > :28:48.personality to a younger generation, and the way to do that, I thought,
:28:49. > :28:50.was through the medium of science fiction.
:28:51. > :29:01.It gives you an even playing field, where you say to your younger
:29:02. > :29:04.audience, "Now this is a world that I don't know but I have
:29:05. > :29:06.created, and you don't know, and you can inhabit it."

:29:25. > :29:29.Is it a concern of yours that the theatre is failing
:29:30. > :29:46.If you look in the average audience, maybe because of money but they seem
:29:47. > :29:57.The sort of people I want in there...
:29:58. > :30:00.You can get the very young, you can catch them before they are

:30:12. > :30:13.How do you make sure, you know, after all these plays
:30:14. > :30:15.you don't find yourself repeating past ideas?
:30:16. > :30:22.That is a real problem, because I keep thinking I must have
