The war in Yemen - the UN accuses both sides of killing and maiming | :00:00. | :00:10. | |
children. The smallest are the most vulnerable to famine, even in | :00:11. | :00:13. | |
All the oxygen has stopped, and this happens all the time. | :00:14. | :00:29. | |
The Saudi-led coalition is blockading a port | :00:30. | :00:31. | |
in a rebel-held area, stopping food coming in. | :00:32. | :00:38. | |
If something isn't done soon, literally hundreds of thousands | :00:39. | :00:41. | |
of children will die in the next four to five months. | :00:42. | :00:45. | |
We have a special report tonight, a rare glimpse inside what the UN is | :00:46. | :00:51. | |
calling the world's worst humanitarian crisis. | :00:52. | :00:51. | |

tonight on the desperate crisis in Yemen and the ongoing suffering | :01:32. | :01:58. | |
of its people. In two leaked reports, | :01:59. | :02:01. | |
obtained by the BBC, the UN accuses both sides in the war | :02:02. | :02:04. | |
there of killing and maiming children and says that the Saudi-led | :02:05. | :02:08. | |
coalition is blocking the delivery Yemen is now in its third | :02:09. | :02:11. | |
year of war, which has created the world's | :02:12. | :02:16. | |
worst humanitarian crisis. 17 million people don't | :02:17. | :02:19. | |
know where their next And seven million more | :02:20. | :02:21. | |
are facing famine. The war is between a | :02:22. | :02:26. | |
Saudi-led coalition, It includes many of the Gulf states | :02:27. | :02:28. | |
and is backed by the US and the UK - on the other side Houthi rebels, | :02:29. | :02:34. | |
with some support from Iran. Nawal Al Maghafi's report is from | :02:35. | :02:38. | |
the Houthi-held area of Hudaydah. You may find her | :02:39. | :02:42. | |
report distressing. Many of Yemen's children have | :02:43. | :02:46. | |
only ever known war. And Hudaydah Central | :02:47. | :02:51. | |
Hospital is full of them. Victims of a conflict that has | :02:52. | :02:59. | |
left their country battered, I first met Dr Abdullah | :03:00. | :03:04. | |
Al Zuhayri a year ago. He tells me things | :03:05. | :03:09. | |
are now much worse. TRANSLATION: We have | :03:10. | :03:14. | |
started to see so many more Now, it's not only | :03:15. | :03:17. | |
the poor bringing their children here, we are seeing cases | :03:18. | :03:23. | |
of severely malnourished children He takes me to meet boy, | :03:24. | :03:26. | |
just three years old, He needs intensive care | :03:27. | :03:32. | |
but there are no beds available. As we talk, the doctor | :03:33. | :03:39. | |
interrupts us. A bed has been freed | :03:40. | :04:03. | |
and he is rushed This is one of the area's | :04:04. | :04:06. | |
last functioning All these people have spent all | :04:07. | :04:16. | |
the money they have to get this far. Now the electricity | :04:17. | :04:28. | |
is off, so all the machines are off, all be incubators | :04:29. | :04:32. | |
are off, all the oxygen has stopped. The war between the Saudi backed | :04:33. | :04:38. | |
government and the Houthi rebels The region's richest nation - | :04:39. | :04:46. | |
bombing its poorest. It's killed thousands | :04:47. | :04:55. | |
and left millions homeless. Where ever you go, displaced | :04:56. | :04:57. | |
people line the streets. With all borders closed, | :04:58. | :05:04. | |
there's no escape. Even the refugee camp offered no | :05:05. | :05:09. | |
protection for Mohammed and Hudaydah is Yemen's main port city, | :05:10. | :05:14. | |
it should be a lifeline, but now it's barely operating, | :05:15. | :05:44. | |
after the Saudi coalition bombed the cranes | :05:45. | :05:49. | |
and blocked their replacements. Food should not be | :05:50. | :05:52. | |
a weapon of war, food 95% of all the food | :05:53. | :05:55. | |
that we need to feed the innocent people comes | :05:56. | :06:00. | |
through this sport. If this port is bombed | :06:01. | :06:03. | |
and completely made useless, literally hundreds of thousands | :06:04. | :06:07. | |
of children will die and millions of But it's not just | :06:08. | :06:11. | |
starvation that the Yemen now faces the worst cholera | :06:12. | :06:19. | |
outbreak in the world This 13-year-old caught it | :06:20. | :06:23. | |
along with 18 members of In the intensive care unit we get | :06:24. | :06:29. | |
a desperate call from As his father says goodbye, | :06:30. | :06:57. | |
the family asks us to carry on filming, to show the world | :06:58. | :07:21. | |
these heartbreaking images. A three-year-old boy, | :07:22. | :07:24. | |
starved and broken. Another child born into a war that | :07:25. | :07:29. | |
has now taken his life. Our Middle East editor, | :07:30. | :07:36. | |
Jeremy Bowen, is here. Images distressing beyond words, | :07:37. | :07:42. | |
the scale of the suffering in Yemen Yeah, it's absolutely horrendous. | :07:43. | :07:54. | |
I've got some figures actually about that area, where that report was | :07:55. | :07:58. | |
filmed. I've got the figures from Save the Children, who are very busy | :07:59. | :08:03. | |
in that part of town. They've got a lot of information. It's one of the | :08:04. | :08:10. | |
hardest areas, areas hardest hit by cholera and malnutrition. 27% of | :08:11. | :08:18. | |
under fives have malnutrition. Almost 94,880, they say, are at | :08:19. | :08:22. | |
imminent risk of death from starvation. Don't forget as well | :08:23. | :08:26. | |
that malnourished children are three times more likely to die from | :08:27. | :08:29. | |
cholera than otherwise healthy children. The figures are terrible. | :08:30. | :08:33. | |
We heard the UN representative there pointing the figure of plain at the | :08:34. | :08:40. | |
Saudis, who are leading a coalition for amongst other things blockading | :08:41. | :08:44. | |
the port. The Saudis see it very differently, though. Yes, they will | :08:45. | :08:51. | |
also point to, in that leaked report, there were information there | :08:52. | :08:55. | |
about grave violations carried out by Houthis as well, including | :08:56. | :09:00. | |
recruiting child soldiers, but the Saudis see the Houthis very much as | :09:01. | :09:04. | |
tools of Iran. When all this started, I sat with a senior Saudi | :09:05. | :09:09. | |
diplomat and he said, "We are going into Yemen and we're going to sort | :09:10. | :09:14. | |
this out once and for all. We cannot have the Iranians active on our | :09:15. | :09:17. | |
doorstep." Now there are many analysts who say the Iranians are | :09:18. | :09:22. | |
not as active as the Saudis say. But that is the big motivation why | :09:23. | :09:26. | |
they're there. The UK is involved. It is supporting the Saudi-led | :09:27. | :09:30. | |
coalition. Yes, Britain over the years has done some absolutely | :09:31. | :09:34. | |
massive arms deals with the Saudis. We continue to maintain as well | :09:35. | :09:38. | |
through various contracts some of their equipment. So, yeah, we're a | :09:39. | :09:43. | |
major supplier. Britain is a major supplier to the Saudi armed forces | :09:44. | :09:47. | |
and the Air Force. The Air Force has carried out a lot of killings, | :09:48. | :09:53. | |
according to this UN information, of children in the area, these grave | :09:54. | :09:57. | |
violations, as they're called. Now there's pressure inside the UN and | :09:58. | :10:02. | |
from other players outside as well to say that this Saudi-led | :10:03. | :10:05. | |
coalition, which is all the countries in it are strong allies of | :10:06. | :10:09. | |
the West, including Britain, that they should be put, the pressure | :10:10. | :10:15. | |
says, on a blacklist of countries that carry out grave violations of | :10:16. | :10:19. | |
human rights against kids particularly. Jermey Bowen, thank | :10:20. | :10:21. | |
you. The four Moroccan men, | :10:22. | :10:23. | |
suspected of the attacks in and around Barcelona last week, | :10:24. | :10:26. | |
have appeared in court. One of them admitted that another | :10:27. | :10:29. | |
bigger attack was being planned. But in the last hour, | :10:30. | :10:31. | |
one of the men has been The latest now from Tom | :10:32. | :10:34. | |
Burridge in Barcelona. In the wake of the deadliest terror | :10:35. | :10:39. | |
attack in Spain in years, four men One by one they were led into a high | :10:40. | :10:44. | |
security prison outside Madrid. The four men in court | :10:45. | :10:52. | |
today are all linked in different ways to last week's | :10:53. | :10:58. | |
attacks and a wider plot. Mohamed Houli Chemlal this morning | :10:59. | :11:02. | |
taken to court in his Last Wednesday he was badly | :11:03. | :11:05. | |
injured in an explosion He admitted in court the group | :11:06. | :11:10. | |
was planning a larger attack. He will remain in prison | :11:11. | :11:14. | |
and faces terrorism charges. Driss Oukabir's passport | :11:15. | :11:17. | |
was found in the rented van, which was driven | :11:18. | :11:20. | |
with such deadly effect He has also been in | :11:21. | :11:23. | |
prison and charged. The man driving the van, Younes | :11:24. | :11:34. | |
Abouyaaquob, was shot dead by police yesterday in countryside outside | :11:35. | :11:38. | |
bars loanament another suspect, he owned an internet cafe. Tonight he | :11:39. | :11:41. | |
remains in custody pending further inquiries. There have been police | :11:42. | :11:46. | |
raids tonight in Ripoll and elsewhere. The fourth man in court, | :11:47. | :11:51. | |
Mohammed Allah denied being owner of the Audi A 3 used in the attack in | :11:52. | :11:55. | |
Cambrils on Friday morning. Today he has been released without charge. | :11:56. | :11:58. | |
It's now been confirmed a speed camera clocked four of the attackers | :11:59. | :12:02. | |
as they drove to Paris in that very car the week before the attacks. | :12:03. | :12:07. | |
Police in Catalonia say their investigation is far from over. On | :12:08. | :12:11. | |
Las Ramblas, five days on, there is a palpable sense of defiance. Spain | :12:12. | :12:17. | |
is a country where much of life is lived outdoors and no amount of | :12:18. | :12:21. | |
terror will change that. But of course, many lives have been cruelly | :12:22. | :12:28. | |
touched forever. Brave British tourist Harry Athwell, held a young | :12:29. | :12:31. | |
boy, after he had been hit by the van. I was afraid for the boy at | :12:32. | :12:35. | |
that point, when I looked at his injuries. They were severe. I was | :12:36. | :12:40. | |
actually quite emotional as well. Because I knew straight away this | :12:41. | :12:44. | |
boy, had to be seven or eight years old, that's the same age as my son. | :12:45. | :12:48. | |
Like I said, due to the injuries, I was quite upset. The first thing I | :12:49. | :12:52. | |
tried to do was just to check his pulse to see if he was alive. His | :12:53. | :12:56. | |
hair was similar to my son's hair. It was a bit shorter than my son's | :12:57. | :13:03. | |
now, but the hair was the same, beautiful, thick, brown hair. I | :13:04. | :13:06. | |
stroked it, I tried to talk to him. As more facts are revealed about the | :13:07. | :13:10. | |
perpetrators of this, questions hang in the air. | :13:11. | :13:18. | |
President Trump has gone back on his often repeated calls for US | :13:19. | :13:21. | |
troops to come out of Afghanistan and announced that instead he'll be | :13:22. | :13:23. | |
In a speech, he made a rare admission that he had | :13:24. | :13:28. | |
changed his mind and that the US would stay in Afghanistan | :13:29. | :13:31. | |
not to nation build, but to attack its enemy | :13:32. | :13:33. | |
America's 16-year involvement in the war has seen over 2,300 | :13:34. | :13:39. | |
troops killed and more than 20,000 injured. | :13:40. | :13:42. | |
But as our North America editor, Jon Sopel, reports, there was no | :13:43. | :13:45. | |
detail about how many extra troops will be deployed and for how long. | :13:46. | :13:52. | |
Donald Trump on his way a rally in Phoenix, Arizona, | :13:53. | :13:56. | |
with a tricky sales job on his hands. | :13:57. | :13:59. | |
The man who likes to be a crowd pleaser, and who throughout | :14:00. | :14:02. | |
the campaign delighted audiences with his promise to pull US | :14:03. | :14:06. | |
forces out of Afghanistan, "a gigantic waste of money | :14:07. | :14:09. | |
But last night, as the band played Hail to the Chief, | :14:10. | :14:16. | |
he was preparing to hit the reverse thrust button on that policy. | :14:17. | :14:21. | |
My original instinct was to pull out, and historically, I like | :14:22. | :14:26. | |
But all my life I've heard that decisions are much different | :14:27. | :14:34. | |
when you sit behind the desk in the Oval Office. | :14:35. | :14:38. | |
But what this flip-flop means in practical terms is hard to assess. | :14:39. | :14:42. | |
The president would not say how many additional troops he would send, | :14:43. | :14:45. | |
nor commit to how long they would be there. | :14:46. | :14:48. | |
The mission would be judged by results, not timelines. | :14:49. | :14:51. | |
And although Kabul may be a long way from Charlottesville, | :14:52. | :14:54. | |
recent events in Virginia were clearly on his mind | :14:55. | :14:57. | |
Loyalty to our nation demands loyalty to one another. | :14:58. | :15:03. | |
Love for America requires love for all of its people. | :15:04. | :15:08. | |
When we open our hearts to patriotism, | :15:09. | :15:11. | |
there is no room for prejudice, no place for bigotry, | :15:12. | :15:17. | |
And some of his harshest words were aimed at the Pakistani | :15:18. | :15:22. | |
government, whom he accused of harbouring terrorists, | :15:23. | :15:25. | |
while taking billions of dollars in US aid money. | :15:26. | :15:29. | |
He called his new policy strategic realism, and summed it up this way. | :15:30. | :15:34. | |
In Phoenix long lines have formed ahead of the president's rally this | :15:35. | :15:51. | |
evening. What do his supporters make of the Afghanistan U-turn? I think | :15:52. | :15:54. | |
Mr Trump has received new information. I'm reluctantly going | :15:55. | :15:58. | |
to follow his lead. He's been listening and he knows exactly what | :15:59. | :16:03. | |
he needs to do now. So that's why I am for his decision. I don't like | :16:04. | :16:07. | |
what I'm seeing in Afghanistan. But I'm going to reserve judgment until | :16:08. | :16:10. | |
I see the fruits of what's actually going to come out of this. The | :16:11. | :16:14. | |
fruits right now are my money's being wasted. We're creating more | :16:15. | :16:17. | |
terrorists going over there and I don't like it. Though Donald Trump | :16:18. | :16:21. | |
has tried to dress this speech up as marking a significant shift in | :16:22. | :16:25. | |
policy, the most striking thing about it is the sense of continuity | :16:26. | :16:30. | |
with the Obama White House. And one other thing - now that this major | :16:31. | :16:34. | |
policy announcement has come, this is Donald Trump's war in Afghanistan | :16:35. | :16:41. | |
not Barack Obama's, not the generals'. Now he has ownership of | :16:42. | :16:43. | |
something he never wanted to buy. In that speech, President Trump | :16:44. | :16:47. | |
declared there would be more onus on the Afghan government | :16:48. | :16:53. | |
to perform better, in civilian But the Afghan government barely | :16:54. | :16:55. | |
controls just over half of all the districts in Afghanistan, | :16:56. | :17:01. | |
and the Taliban are gaining ground. It's estimated 31 Afghan | :17:02. | :17:05. | |
security force soldiers are being killed every day - | :17:06. | :17:08. | |
along with civilian deaths. From Kabul, here's | :17:09. | :17:10. | |
Secundar Kermani. This is the Kabul military training | :17:11. | :17:16. | |
centre, one of the largest In a few months many of the young | :17:17. | :17:19. | |
men here will be on the front lines For the past two and a half years | :17:20. | :17:30. | |
it's been Afghan soldiers, as opposed to international forces, | :17:31. | :17:34. | |
that have taken the lead There's no doubt that | :17:35. | :17:36. | |
they've sacrificed a lot, thousands upon thousands have | :17:37. | :17:48. | |
lost their lives. Yet they've been unable to stop | :17:49. | :17:50. | |
the level of violence In the first half of this | :17:51. | :17:52. | |
year alone, over 1600 Whilst the government only controls | :17:53. | :17:56. | |
just over half of the country. So the commitment by President Trump | :17:57. | :18:01. | |
not to allow Afghanistan to fall to the Taliban, has been widely | :18:02. | :18:05. | |
welcomed by authorities here. TRANSLATION: The message | :18:06. | :18:08. | |
is that the US will stand The tougher stance on Pakistan | :18:09. | :18:20. | |
was also well received. TRANSLATION: Our neighbour has been | :18:21. | :18:25. | |
given a clear message - Afghan security forces have long | :18:26. | :18:28. | |
claimed that attacks like this one are masterminded in neighbouring | :18:29. | :18:46. | |
Pakistan. That's always been flatly | :18:47. | :18:47. | |
denied by authorities in the Pakistani capital Islamabad, | :18:48. | :18:49. | |
who point of the country's losses It has suffered casualties, | :18:50. | :18:51. | |
30-40,000, and I think wounded is over 100,000, | :18:52. | :18:57. | |
and we've lost manpower and we are We have lost civilians, | :18:58. | :19:03. | |
and they say we haven't done enough. President Trump today seemed | :19:04. | :19:11. | |
to recognise there was no military solution to the conflict and instead | :19:12. | :19:18. | |
there would be some kind For the moment, though, | :19:19. | :19:20. | |
many more young men like these will go out to fight, | :19:21. | :19:26. | |
and many will never return. The former boss of the retail chain | :19:27. | :19:28. | |
BHS, Dominic Chappell, is to be prosecuted by the Pensions Regulator | :19:29. | :19:37. | |
for failing to provide information BHS went into administration last | :19:38. | :19:40. | |
year, causing 11,000 people to lose their jobs, | :19:41. | :19:44. | |
and leaving a 571 million This time last year | :19:45. | :19:46. | |
and everything must go - the end of an era of a once great | :19:47. | :20:00. | |
high street name. Dominic Chappell, its former owner, | :20:01. | :20:03. | |
he had no retail experience, but he bought the loss-making | :20:04. | :20:09. | |
chain for ?1. Just over a year later, | :20:10. | :20:11. | |
BHS collapsed into administration. This used to be BHS' flagship store, | :20:12. | :20:16. | |
here on Oxford Street. The shutters are still down | :20:17. | :20:21. | |
on what's coming next. What was revealed today, though, | :20:22. | :20:27. | |
is that Dominic Chappell is being prosecuted by the pension | :20:28. | :20:30. | |
regulator for failing to provide information and documents | :20:31. | :20:34. | |
about a reasonable excuse. It wants this material | :20:35. | :20:37. | |
because the regulator is still pursuing Mr Chappell over | :20:38. | :20:41. | |
whether he avoided his responsibilities | :20:42. | :20:45. | |
to the BHS pension scheme. I want to give an assurance | :20:46. | :20:49. | |
to the 20,000 pensioners, Sir Philip Green sold | :20:50. | :20:53. | |
BHS to Mr Chappell. After that promise to MPs, | :20:54. | :21:02. | |
he eventually paid more than ?350 million in a settlement | :21:03. | :21:05. | |
with the pension regulator. For this MP, BHS is still | :21:06. | :21:09. | |
unfinished business. There is going to be a search | :21:10. | :21:13. | |
for truth and justice, even if it takes a long time, | :21:14. | :21:19. | |
and the select committee will help play its part in that | :21:20. | :21:23. | |
great unfolding drama. Many stores still lie | :21:24. | :21:26. | |
empty as Mr Chappell He's previously pledged | :21:27. | :21:28. | |
to fight any legal action, denying he was responsible | :21:29. | :21:34. | |
for the hole in the pension scheme. An end to the north-south divide | :21:35. | :21:37. | |
in investment in transport has been called for by two lobby groups, | :21:38. | :21:44. | |
representing thousands of companies More than 70,000 people | :21:45. | :21:46. | |

more outside London The high speed rail line HS2 | :21:54. | :21:55. | |
will provide a faster link - between London and Birmingham - | :21:56. | :22:00. | |
then on to Manchester, But businesses want a commitment | :22:01. | :22:02. | |
to HS3, which would cut journey times across the country | :22:03. | :22:08. | |
from west to east. Jon Kay has been speaking | :22:09. | :22:12. | |

Manchester Victoria, Huddersfield... Heading across northern | :22:20. | :22:21. | |
England tonight, the 17.10 On time, but for some | :22:22. | :22:27. | |
it's just too slow. Yeah, it's terrible, | :22:28. | :22:30. | |
it's absolutely terrible. Rona has spent six hours today | :22:31. | :22:31. | |
commuting between Yorkshire and Merseyside and it's only 70 | :22:32. | :22:33. | |
miles each way. So for me, I left home at 6:30am | :22:34. | :22:38. | |
this morning and I'll get home at 7:30pm tonight, | :22:39. | :22:46. | |
so that's a very long day. So for my productivity, | :22:47. | :22:49. | |
it impacts me tomorrow While she is recovering, | :22:50. | :22:51. | |
tomorrow the north of England's politicians and business leaders | :22:52. | :22:59. | |
will be holding a summit to discuss building a high-speed | :23:00. | :23:02. | |
link across the region. It could cut the journey | :23:03. | :23:05. | |
from Manchester to Leeds from 48 minutes to 26, | :23:06. | :23:08. | |
and the 90 minute journey from Just the section between Manchester | :23:09. | :23:11. | |
and Leeds across the Pennines can cost up to ?7 billion, | :23:12. | :23:18. | |
so do rail users What do you think the money should | :23:19. | :23:20. | |
be spent on instead, Spent it on education, | :23:21. | :23:30. | |
spent it on health. It's always been the south, | :23:31. | :23:34. | |
so why not the north for a change? I don't think it's a big deal | :23:35. | :23:37. | |
getting somewhere ten I think if they're more efficient, | :23:38. | :23:40. | |
on time, better services, cleaner, With a house on the Wirral | :23:41. | :23:44. | |
and a business in Newcastle, Herb would love a faster line | :23:45. | :23:50. | |
but he thinks they are cheaper and more realistic ways | :23:51. | :23:54. | |
of getting business moving. To make sure anywhere along any | :23:55. | :24:00. | |
of the Northern Rails you would never drop a phone call, | :24:01. | :24:03. | |
you would always be able to have high-speed mobile | :24:04. | :24:06. | |
data available to you, ideally Wi-Fi, but even just 4G | :24:07. | :24:08. | |
would be a huge step forward. But Raman thinks a new railway | :24:09. | :24:14. | |
is the only solution and would help him expand | :24:15. | :24:17. | |
from the north-east For us, better links | :24:18. | :24:19. | |
towards Manchester and Liverpool, that would make it easier for us | :24:20. | :24:26. | |
to do business in those regions. It could actually lead | :24:27. | :24:29. | |
to the opening of an office in those regions, because at the minute | :24:30. | :24:32. | |
we are quite restricted, in terms But this could be a long | :24:33. | :24:34. | |
and slow journey. It's about politics | :24:35. | :24:38. | |
as well as the price, and the north of England is not | :24:39. | :24:41. | |
the only region raising its voice and demanding urgent | :24:42. | :24:45. | |
investment in infrastructure. A brief look at some of the day's | :24:46. | :24:47. | |

next week, the broadcaster will be relying on it to bring in increased | :25:32. | :25:37. | |
revenue through advertising. But as our Media Editor Amol Rajan | :25:38. | :25:41. | |
reports, the media landscape is changing, and the the way | :25:42. | :25:43. | |
we watch TV is being transformed. Nobody wants to be the first | :25:44. | :25:51. | |
person to leave... Great British Bake Off, | :25:52. | :25:57. | |
poached from the BBC The winner of the 2015 | :25:58. | :25:58. | |
Great British Bake Off is... Watched by 13 million | :25:59. | :26:05. | |
people on BBC One. Channel 4 paid a reported | :26:06. | :26:14. | |
?75 million for three years. According to the man who ran both | :26:15. | :26:19. | |
Channel 4 and the BBC, Bake Off Personally, I think Channel 4 | :26:20. | :26:22. | |
were out of their minds. Buying a show like that, | :26:23. | :26:27. | |
using a cheque book to buy ready-made BBC show, | :26:28. | :26:30. | |
the most popular show on British television, | :26:31. | :26:33. | |
it's not what Channel 4 It's there to be a nursery | :26:34. | :26:34. | |
for talent and ideas, VOICEOVER: Islamic State is | :26:35. | :26:38. | |
the state of the Muslims and we... But this is why it is happening - | :26:39. | :26:44. | |
though a public broadcaster, Channel 4 is commercially funded | :26:45. | :26:48. | |
and believes only big audiences can generate the revenues necessary | :26:49. | :26:52. | |
to fund shows that push boundaries. It's not going to jump, | :26:53. | :26:59. | |
they can't jump. And the competition for eyeballs | :27:00. | :27:01. | |
has become ferocious. Four of the five biggest | :27:02. | :27:04. | |
companies in the world - Google, Apple, Facebook and Amazon - | :27:05. | :27:07. | |
are moving dramatically Meanwhile, streaming services | :27:08. | :27:09. | |
like Netflix and Disney are investing billions in original | :27:10. | :27:14. | |
programming to broadcast directly to hundreds | :27:15. | :27:16. | |
of millions of customers. The marketing body for Britain's | :27:17. | :27:20. | |
commercial networks says This is a time of great | :27:21. | :27:22. | |
commercial opportunity The internet is often pitted | :27:23. | :27:31. | |
as the great competitor to TV. In fact, exactly the | :27:32. | :27:36. | |
opposite is the case. The internet is the future of TV, | :27:37. | :27:38. | |
it's how TV is expanding, Technological innovation | :27:39. | :27:42. | |
is changing both the supply On the supply side, the choice | :27:43. | :27:47. | |
for audiences is greater than ever, and in terms of demand, | :27:48. | :27:54. | |
many young viewers increasingly consume TV across multiple devices, | :27:55. | :27:57. | |
ignore TV schedules and in some Finally we called at the Clarks, | :27:58. | :28:00. | |
and although it was Saturday Time was when families | :28:01. | :28:05. | |
across the country would come together to watch a limited | :28:06. | :28:09. | |
range of channels. That still happens, | :28:10. | :28:12. | |
but on fewer applications. This family in Kent illustrate | :28:13. | :28:16. | |
the changing way parents Is this a normal family scene, | :28:17. | :28:21. | |
of how you guys watch TV together? When I come home it's the news | :28:22. | :28:29. | |
that everybody watches, and they join in and then | :28:30. | :28:32. | |
after that they watch Do you guys watch TV with your | :28:33. | :28:35. | |
parents most of the time or not? I live away from home most | :28:36. | :28:39. | |
of the time, so my access to TV is very different, | :28:40. | :28:42. | |
it's through my laptop I'm usually spending my time | :28:43. | :28:45. | |
on Nickelodeon or even watching the Food Network, | :28:46. | :28:48. | |
Good Food. To quote the late Sir Bruce Forsyth, | :28:49. | :28:52. | |
television is today While broadcasters from the BBC | :28:53. | :28:54. | |
to Channel 4 compete ever harder for the flagship shows that can | :28:55. | :29:02. | |
bring a nation together, technology is pulling | :29:03. | :29:05. | |
audiences and families England are through to the final | :29:06. | :29:06. | |
of the Women's Rugby World Cup. They beat France by 20 points | :29:07. | :29:14. | |
to three in Belfast tonight, to set up a meeting | :29:15. | :29:17. | |
with New Zealand on Saturday. Our Sports Correspondent Katherine | :29:18. | :29:19. | |
Downes was watching the action. Sarah Harding lot, rugby fans. | :29:20. | :29:33. | |
Brightening a great Belfast date with all the sparkle a World Cup | :29:34. | :29:38. | |
semifinal deserves. Come to add their voices to the roar of the | :29:39. | :29:45. | |
crowd, however small. England, defending world champion tonight, | :29:46. | :29:48. | |
faced a familiar foe, France, who proved a thorn in the side of the | :29:49. | :29:53. | |
red roses over recent Six Nations campaigns, and so it would prove. By | :29:54. | :29:57. | |
half-time there were only six points on the board shared between the | :29:58. | :30:10. | |
boots of Emily 's carrot and Izar. 40 minutes of crunching tackles, | :30:11. | :30:14. | |
this was perhaps even more of a battle than expected. England opened | :30:15. | :30:19. | |
up a slight lead at the start of the second half, another three points | :30:20. | :30:23. | |
hard earned, ground up French mistake. Even that try when it came | :30:24. | :30:29. | |
to was inched over. England's battering ram finally puncturing a | :30:30. | :30:36. | |
hole in France's defence. 20-3 disco. But also rendered finally by | :30:37. | :30:41. | |
a French Bumble at the final whistle. So relieved for England and | :30:42. | :30:45. | |
the realisation that the World Cup double is still possible, but if | :30:46. | :30:50. | |
France were tough to beat, four times champions New Zealand who beat | :30:51. | :30:56. | |
the US is a earlier, wait in the final two claim the trophy they | :30:57. | :30:57. | |
think is rightfully theirs. And so it is a fairy tale final for | :30:58. | :31:05. | |
this World Cup, the two best sides in the women's game going | :31:06. | :31:08. | |
head-to-head for the title, here in Belfast on Saturday. At the end of | :31:09. | :31:11. | |
the summer of sport that has seen women contest that cricket World | :31:12. | :31:16. | |
Cup, the football championship, the Solheim cup to name just a few, in | :31:17. | :31:20. | |
front of the television audience of millions, this is another chance to | :31:21. | :31:24. | |
showcase the very best of women's sport to an ever expanding audience. | :31:25. | :31:27. | |
