:04:01. > :04:08.famous boulevard, in panic. On Spain's most famous boulevard, in
:04:09. > :04:16.panic. This white van mounted the pavement and ploughed into
:04:17. > :04:22.pedestrians. Bodies were left lying on the street. Those who were
:04:23. > :04:26.nearby, rushed to help the injured. Emergency services arrived quickly.
:04:27. > :04:31.And the hunt for those responsible began. The city's Metro and train
:04:32. > :04:38.stations were closed down. The nearby streets quickly deserted, as
:04:39. > :04:45.people were told to stay inside. I saw a white van with the side door
:04:46. > :04:52.open. We heard gunshots. Whether it was the police or from the van, I
:04:53. > :04:58.don't know. I didn't hang around for that. We ran into the Burger King to
:04:59. > :05:03.get shelter. REPORTER: What was going through your mind when it was
:05:04. > :05:10.going on? Are we going to survive? We were just scared they were going
:05:11. > :05:15.to get in there. They pulled all the shutters down. Just kept us safe and
:05:16. > :05:19.that was it. It. I saw people falling to the ground and that
:05:20. > :05:23.struck my eyes, rather than the car. I immediately sensed it was a
:05:24. > :05:27.Nice-like event. And people around it ran away, fled away in panic.
:05:28. > :05:30.Authorities say the vehicle was driven half a kilometre down Las
:05:31. > :05:34.Ramblas boulevard, reportedly at up to 80 kilometres an hour. Police
:05:35. > :05:40.have released a photo of this man, Driss Oubakir, said to have rented
:05:41. > :05:44.the van. He is understood to have been known to police, a former
:05:45. > :05:46.prisoner, released five years ago. Police say two people have been
:05:47. > :05:50.arrested tonight but investigators are still working to get to the
:05:51. > :05:58.bottom of how this happened and who was behind it. Right now, people are
:05:59. > :06:03.being told to stay well away from the city. But this attack has
:06:04. > :06:07.happened in the middle of summer. There are locals, tourists,
:06:08. > :06:12.thousands of people here, unsure of where to go and whether it is safe
:06:13. > :06:16.and whether there are more people out there, planning another attack.
:06:17. > :06:20.You cannot be sure to go anywhere else, anything can happen. Wherever
:06:21. > :06:23.we go, we will still be exposed to something. Tonight, as people start
:06:24. > :06:26.to comprehend the brutality of what's happened, they are being told
:06:27. > :06:34.to stay awane indoors, as police try -- away and indoors I as police try
:06:35. > :06:36.to co-ordinate who carried out the attack and if any threat remains.
:06:37. > :06:38.Well, today's attack using a vehicle to mow down pedestrians is one
:06:39. > :06:41.of at least seven to have been carried out in Europe
:06:42. > :06:45.And, as ever, the problem for the authorities is that such
:06:46. > :06:46.attacks are extremely difficult to prevent.
:06:47. > :06:48.Our security correspondent, Gordon Corera, has been
:06:49. > :06:51.looking at what more - if anything - can be done.
:06:52. > :07:00.Barcelona is just the late nest a series of vehicle attacks, leaving a
:07:01. > :07:06.terrible but almost familiar scene on the streets of Europe. The first
:07:07. > :07:12.major Ince detective dent was in Nice when a lorry ploughed into a
:07:13. > :07:16.crowd just over a year ago. It was a target and moment to maximise the
:07:17. > :07:20.casualties and impact. Then a alreadiy attack on auto Christmas
:07:21. > :07:27.market in Berlin -- then a lorry attack and a van driven into the
:07:28. > :07:36.city centre in Stockholm. Britain has not immune. In March, a man
:07:37. > :07:44.ploughed into a Westminster Bridge. Three men drove down London Bridge
:07:45. > :07:49.in June before attacking people with knives and feignsbury park mosque,
:07:50. > :07:52.people were struck by a car. Stopping these attacks is hard. Here
:07:53. > :07:55.at Westminster Bridge they have stopped the barriers to stop
:07:56. > :08:00.vehicles ramming into pedestrians on the bridge but an attacker could
:08:01. > :08:05.just pick a different crowded place. The authorities are also looking at
:08:06. > :08:08.more checks on people making short-notice rentals of vans but the
:08:09. > :08:14.problem is, these attacks require just every day items, just a car, no
:08:15. > :08:19.guns or explosives and with so little planning required, it can be
:08:20. > :08:24.hard to spot them, and stop them. New shock absorbing barriers, like
:08:25. > :08:26.this one, shown in a test, may offer some protection but
:08:27. > :08:32.counter-terrorism experts caution they cannot stop all attacks
:08:33. > :08:37.happening. It's an almost impossible thing to prevent completely but you
:08:38. > :08:43.can try to make it a little bit more difficult for terrorists and that,
:08:44. > :08:47.to some extent is all we can do. The way we stop this from happening is
:08:48. > :08:51.by preventing people from becoming radicalised or by people willing to
:08:52. > :08:59.come forward to say - I know someone who might do this. This is how we
:09:00. > :09:03.stop it. This is one of the men police believe it is responsible and
:09:04. > :09:06.tonight Islamic State, so-called said it was responsible. But this
:09:07. > :09:11.does not always mean there was a direct link with the group and one
:09:12. > :09:16.major concern for security forces around the world, is that these kind
:09:17. > :09:18.of attacks can be carried out with little or no training, direction or
:09:19. > :09:25.coordination. Back to Gavin Lee in Barcelona now.
:09:26. > :09:30.Two arrests made and huge parts of the city cordoned off. What is the
:09:31. > :09:34.latest on the police operation there? Some people still being moved
:09:35. > :09:37.back now. We are talking about thousands of people who cannot get
:09:38. > :09:42.back to either their holiday hotels or local lives here. The police are
:09:43. > :09:46.saying this developed after the car that drove half a kilometre, just
:09:47. > :09:51.further down on Las Ramblas. The chase took to the streets, there
:09:52. > :09:55.were two men hiding in bars. This is why at the same time police very
:09:56. > :10:00.quickly at the scene managed to hide, we are thinking, we are told
:10:01. > :10:04.hundreds of people inside the museum and other bars. Both those men were
:10:05. > :10:10.arrested. Another man, a third man was shot dead. 500m from here there
:10:11. > :10:16.was a car chase a man went through three small checkpoints as they
:10:17. > :10:20.tried to stop him. We are also being told that this is an investigation
:10:21. > :10:22.that involves more people. So tonight, five hours into the
:10:23. > :10:27.investigation, this is just starting to start as to how big the plot was
:10:28. > :10:29.and how it was co-ordinated. Thank you for now. Back to you later in
:10:30. > :10:29.the programme. The number of teenagers achieving
:10:30. > :10:30.top A-level grades has increased for the first time in six years

:10:32. > :10:37.received their grades today. For the first time in 17 years,
:10:38. > :10:40.boys were ahead of the girls Here's our Education Editor,
:10:41. > :10:46.Branwen Jeffreys. I'm on the way to get my
:10:47. > :10:49.A-level results now. Yeah, I'm starting
:10:50. > :10:52.to feel a bit nervous. I don't know, I guess
:10:53. > :10:55.it's a good thing. It's all going to be
:10:56. > :10:57.over in literally, like, For Sarah, Alex and Georgia,
:10:58. > :11:07.a day of reckoning. Two years of hard work,
:11:08. > :11:10.results riding on one set of exams. So, how do they feel
:11:11. > :11:14.about the new A-levels, where AS exams no longer count
:11:15. > :11:21.in some subjects? I personally found
:11:22. > :11:24.it really stressful. The idea that everything
:11:25. > :11:27.all of a sudden is at the end of two years, is very intimidating,
:11:28. > :11:30.I think, for many of us. It really is, like you have got
:11:31. > :11:33.to remember things from two years ago and you sit there in the exam
:11:34. > :11:36.and you are like - With the old system,
:11:37. > :11:46.if you did badly in your AS results you would have to resit that
:11:47. > :11:48.but at least it gives you a chance to redeem yourself
:11:49. > :11:51.if you have done bad. Despite the stress, exam
:11:52. > :11:54.results have held up. Just a tiny dip in the new A-levels
:11:55. > :11:57.and for boys, the best top grades for decades,
:11:58. > :12:00.getting more A and A* All their hopes and fears
:12:01. > :12:09.compressed into a few hours And in England this year, the stakes
:12:10. > :12:18.have felt particularly high, with students road testing
:12:19. > :12:25.a new system of exams. With more new-style A-levels next
:12:26. > :12:27.year, headteachers say We know where we want to get our
:12:28. > :12:36.students but we haven't had a map, we haven't had directions
:12:37. > :12:38.and when we have had these, they've So we've had to muddle through that
:12:39. > :12:42.and use our experience to get That's an incredibly
:12:43. > :12:49.stressful situation. For those who missed out on grades,

:12:59. > :13:00.than ?9,000 a year. No sign yet it's putting
:13:01. > :13:07.young people off. But at the top of universities,
:13:08. > :13:10.they know the debate has shifted. It has opened up and I think the key
:13:11. > :13:15.issue for universities is that the funding that we have
:13:16. > :13:18.for higher education must have the confidence
:13:19. > :13:20.and trust of young people. It's important that young

:22:39. > :22:42.someone said to me, "You are a loser and if I were you I wouldn't have

:22:46. > :22:53.of that word "loser." The Islamic State was formed

:22:57. > :23:08.warped and stalled the future Repairing that damage will be
:23:09. > :23:12.an even greater task than rebuilding The education watchdog Ofsted has
:23:13. > :23:17.published a damning report into one of the UK's largest adult training
:23:18. > :23:21.and apprenticeship providers - Ofsted rated the company -
:23:22. > :23:24.which has received hundreds of millions of pounds of public
:23:25. > :23:29.money - as inadequate. That's the worst rating
:23:30. > :23:31.the watchdog can give. The Department for Education has
:23:32. > :23:34.said it will withdraw Cricket now - and there
:23:35. > :23:40.were centuries for both Alastair Cook and Joe Root
:23:41. > :23:43.as England began the first day-night Test with the West
:23:44. > :23:46.Indies at Edgbaston. And all eyes were on the pink ball,
:23:47. > :23:50.which is being used for the first time in a Test match
:23:51. > :23:53.in this country. Our sports correspondent
:23:54. > :24:00.Joe Wilson reports. If you came to Birmingham this week,
:24:01. > :24:03.you knew about the cricket. Arrive in the sun,
:24:04. > :24:12.to leave after dark. You're in lovely green
:24:13. > :24:14.shorts, you've got short Is there another couple
:24:15. > :24:18.of layers in there? Some waterproofs and layers along
:24:19. > :24:21.with the provisions, yeah. Mark Stoneman, on debut,
:24:22. > :24:24.lasted six balls. Tom Westley also fell quickly,
:24:25. > :24:33.LBW, given after review. But Alastair Cook was seeing this
:24:34. > :24:36.ball as clearly as ever. Remember, entertainment is the point
:24:37. > :24:45.of this whole exercise. Well, the ball could be red,
:24:46. > :24:48.pink, or polka dot. That had four written all over it
:24:49. > :24:52.and Root, the captain, The 100 for Alastair Cook came
:24:53. > :25:00.shortly before 7:30pm and it all seemed a bit easy,
:25:01. > :25:05.but Joe Root fell for 136, and did Remember, the whole point
:25:06. > :25:11.about the new pink ball is that it can be used after dark,
:25:12. > :25:14.and finally, at about 8:30pm, the floodlight
:25:15. > :25:19.was coming into its own. A shiny pink ball under lights
:25:20. > :25:22.is what batsmen had feared. See you in the morning -
:25:23. > :25:32.or rather, the afternoon. Pupils at a school in West London,
:25:33. > :25:39.which sits in the shadow of Grenfell Tower, were among those
:25:40. > :25:41.who received their Many of them lived in
:25:42. > :25:44.or around the tower block. Four students and one former
:25:45. > :25:47.pupil died in the fire. Others lost their homes
:25:48. > :25:50.as they were preparing The head teacher of the Kensington
:25:51. > :25:54.Aldridge Academy has been telling our education correspondent,
:25:55. > :25:56.Gillian Hargreaves, how proud Their school lies at the foot
:25:57. > :26:04.of the burned out tower. They haven't been able to use
:26:05. > :26:07.it for three months. This is the first time
:26:08. > :26:14.the headteacher has spoken It was very, very difficult
:26:15. > :26:20.and very, very challenging. There was the emotion
:26:21. > :26:22.of the situation and the deep concern that we had for the members
:26:23. > :26:25.of our school community, but there was also a whole load
:26:26. > :26:29.of practical challenges in place. You know, children have one chance
:26:30. > :26:33.in life at an education. Today, at least, there were results
:26:34. > :26:40.to celebrate at their temporary I think that the fact that we can
:26:41. > :26:48.walk in here and get our results and have smiles on our faces,
:26:49. > :26:51.I think it's part of remembering, and it's part of celebrating
:26:52. > :26:56.the people who lived in Grenfell. Our strength brings strength
:26:57. > :27:02.to the community, and strength in the community I think
:27:03. > :27:06.is everything we can hope for. We're sticking together,
:27:07. > :27:08.rather than getting angry. We're still trying to,
:27:09. > :27:15.like, obviously move on, but we will never move
:27:16. > :27:17.on from what happened. And although we don't
:27:18. > :27:19.want to mention it, we'll Although barely touched by the fire,
:27:20. > :27:24.the school remains shut until next Easter, as it's
:27:25. > :27:28.within the police cordon. To lose five pupils,
:27:29. > :27:34.four all at once, two in one year group, that is immense
:27:35. > :27:37.for a school to endure. I'm incredibly proud of my staff
:27:38. > :27:50.and what they've done. What I saw after Grenfell
:27:51. > :27:56.was incredible, because, you know, they had the bravery and the courage
:27:57. > :28:00.to come back in, feeling very confused and uneasy
:28:01. > :28:04.about what had happened. And they had the maturity to listen
:28:05. > :28:09.to us about what we were saying was important, and then
:28:10. > :28:11.they supported each So, you know, you should assume
:28:12. > :28:17.the best about children and in a challenge like this we saw
:28:18. > :28:22.that they could rise to it. After all of that, today's
:28:23. > :28:25.a good day for you. Mm, today is a really
:28:26. > :28:30.good day for us. The head teacher of
:28:31. > :28:32.the Kensington Aldridge Academy, David Benson, speaking
:28:33. > :28:34.to our education correspondent, Let's go back to our main story
:28:35. > :28:49.tonight, and the terror 13 people have been killed and at
:28:50. > :28:53.least 100 have been injured, after a van was driven into crowds at one of
:28:54. > :28:56.the city's most popular tourist sites and there are warnings that
:28:57. > :29:02.the death toll may rise. Gavin Lee is there with the latest.
:29:03. > :29:07.The police press conference has just finished in the past few minutes.
:29:08. > :29:11.The latest details we know, more than 100 people injured, 13 people
:29:12. > :29:15.dead, 15 people in a critical condition in hospital. Behind me
:29:16. > :29:20.this is the stretch of last Rambus, the most famous promenade in Spain,
:29:21. > :29:23.where police are going from house to house right now -- the stretch of
:29:24. > :29:27.last Rambus. They are investigating exactly who is in because they
:29:28. > :29:31.believe there's a bigger plot, more men involved. They say two men have
:29:32. > :29:36.been arrested. They were hiding in bars about 500 metres down the
:29:37. > :29:40.street. There were about 200 people inside a museum, inside some of the
:29:41. > :29:47.shops, hiding out. They are being told to stay, take cover. There's
:29:48. > :29:53.been two men a third has an shot about 500 metres from here, shot
:29:54. > :29:57.dead. Two men fled on foot, a third man appears to have tried to escape
:29:58. > :30:02.500 metres away. I can bring in an eyewitness here, Aamer Anwar, from
:30:03. > :30:07.Scotland. You were amongst the people who were told to stay away
:30:08. > :30:12.and all the tourists around us cannot go back into the city. Tell
:30:13. > :30:18.me what you saw this evening? I literally had come onto Las Ramblas,
:30:19. > :30:24.I was about to stop there, it was too busy, there were families, young
:30:25. > :30:28.people, it was too busy so I decided to walk on. Just as I walked on,
:30:29. > :30:32.literally ten seconds, I heard the sound of a crash, screams at the
:30:33. > :30:36.same time and thousands of people started to run. I turned around,
:30:37. > :30:40.looked, and started to run. I didn't know why I was running, I could hear
:30:41. > :30:45.the screaming. After ten seconds I stopped. The man behind me was in
:30:46. > :30:52.tears, a Bengali man who was crying, I could hear him speaking and he
:30:53. > :30:55.said he had seen a car mounted the pavement, go into a crowd of people
:30:56. > :30:58.and he thought five or six people were dead. Instantaneously the
:30:59. > :31:03.police arrived, the emergency services response was amazing.
:31:04. > :31:08.Within 30 seconds, hundreds of police, ambulances and fire brigade.
:31:09. > :31:11.What about you tonight? Nobody has told me to do anything. The
:31:12. > :31:16.emergency response was brilliant but there are thousands of people not
:31:17. > :31:20.quite knowing what to do, trying to get to my hotel which is only five
:31:21. > :31:23.minutes from where this happened and people are standing about, not
:31:24. > :31:28.knowing where to go. They don't know the addresses, they don't know how
:31:29. > :31:31.to get there. Thank you for talking to me. Amongst hundreds of people
:31:32. > :31:35.around me now the police investigation continues, for what
:31:36. > :31:39.has been the biggest terrorist attack here in Spain in more than a
:31:40. > :31:43.decade. Gavin Lee with the latest from
