Tonight at ten, all options are on the table, says President Trump,

:00:12.:00:14.

after North Korea fires a missile over Japan.

:00:15.:00:15.

Sirens sounded in northern Japan warning people to take cover

:00:16.:00:19.

America's UN ambassador said enough was enough.

:00:20.:00:24.

It's unacceptable, they have violated every single

:00:25.:00:26.

UN Security Council resolution that we've had,

:00:27.:00:28.

and so I think something serious has to happen.

:00:29.:00:34.

It was the latest missile test fired by North Korea,

:00:35.:00:38.

in defiance of the international community.

:00:39.:00:40.

We'll be asking what more, if anything,

:00:41.:00:42.

the international community can do to rein in North Korea.

:00:43.:00:45.

Also tonight, President Trump flies into Texas

:00:46.:00:49.

to assess for himself the damage done by the devastating

:00:50.:00:51.

This is historic, it's epic, what happened, but you know what?

:00:52.:00:56.

It happened in Texas, and Texas can handle anything.

:00:57.:01:01.

Record rainfall, more than four foot of water has fallen since Friday,

:01:02.:01:04.

Here, the Government's accused of being too timid in its plans

:01:05.:01:11.

for greater transparency on corporate pay.

:01:12.:01:17.

They've finally done it - drama at Headingley,

:01:18.:01:19.

as West Indies win a Test in England for the first time in 17 years.

:01:20.:01:28.

And coming up in Sportsday on BBC News, defending champion

:01:29.:01:31.

Angelique Kerber has been knocked out of the US Open,

:01:32.:01:33.

beaten by Japanese teenager by Naomi Osaka.

:01:34.:01:55.

President Trump says all options are now on the table

:01:56.:01:59.

after North Korea fired a ballistic missile over Japan last night.

:02:00.:02:03.

his country is now facing an unprecedented threat.

:02:04.:02:08.

China has warned that the crisis is now at a tipping point.

:02:09.:02:10.

The missile, which potentially has the power to carry

:02:11.:02:14.

a nuclear warhead, was fired eastward from near Pyongyang

:02:15.:02:16.

It flew over Japan's Hokkaido island

:02:17.:02:22.

before crashing into the sea 700 miles off the Japanese coast.

:02:23.:02:26.

Sirens blared out, and text messages were sent across northern Japan,

:02:27.:02:28.

warning people in the missile's flight path to take cover.

:02:29.:02:32.

Our first report tonight is from Rupert Wingfield-Hayes in Tokyo.

:02:33.:02:41.

This is how people in northern Japan were awoken

:02:42.:02:46.

"A missile is passing," the announcer says.

:02:47.:02:50.

"A missile is passing, please find shelter immediately."

:02:51.:02:55.

At city hall, there are frantic phone calls.

:02:56.:03:00.

This is not a practice, this is real.

:03:01.:03:06.

A North Korean missile has just flown overhead.

:03:07.:03:10.

Suddenly, it started ringing with alerts.

:03:11.:03:17.

"We have nowhere to escape to," says this man,

:03:18.:03:33.

The missile that flew over Japan is thought to be one of these,

:03:34.:03:38.

It was first seen at this huge parade in Pyongyang in April.

:03:39.:03:42.

A month later, North Korea shocked the world by successfully firing

:03:43.:03:45.

Today it has gone much further, forcing a grim-faced

:03:46.:03:52.

Japanese Prime Minister, Shinzo Abe, to address the nation.

:03:53.:03:55.

TRANSLATION: This missile flown over Japan is an outrageous act,

:03:56.:03:58.

and a critical threat that we have not seen before.

:03:59.:04:05.

There will be many who say this North Korean missile launch

:04:06.:04:08.

is all about politics, that it's North Korean brinkmanship,

:04:09.:04:11.

But it's not much consolation if you live here, underneath it.

:04:12.:04:16.

This was an extremely aggressive act by Pyongyang,

:04:17.:04:20.

and it sends a very disturbing message to people here in Japan.

:04:21.:04:26.

It can now hit Tokyo with nuclear weapons,

:04:27.:04:28.

it can hit Okinawa with nuclear weapons.

:04:29.:04:31.

You know, if you don't want to keep this game of escalation,

:04:32.:04:34.

we might want to sit down and start talking to each other.

:04:35.:04:38.

But right now, talking is the last thing on anyone's mind here.

:04:39.:04:42.

Today, South Korea sent F-15 fighter jets

:04:43.:04:45.

to bomb targets just south of the demilitarised zone.

:04:46.:04:49.

American heavy bombers could follow next.

:04:50.:04:51.

Each side now feels compelled to flex its military might,

:04:52.:04:56.

and so the spiral of tension is wound up yet again.

:04:57.:05:00.

Rupert Wingfield-Hayes, BBC News, in Tokyo.

:05:01.:05:03.

Tonight, an emergency meeting of the UN Security Council

:05:04.:05:06.

is getting under way in New York, with America calling for serious

:05:07.:05:09.

action to deal with North Korea's nuclear missile programme.

:05:10.:05:13.

The Prime Minister, Theresa May, is on her way to Japan tonight

:05:14.:05:16.

She condemned the missile firing as reckless provocation.

:05:17.:05:19.

Our diplomatic correspondent James Landale

:05:20.:05:21.

looks at the options left for the international community.

:05:22.:05:28.

This is a crisis showing little sign of resolution.

:05:29.:05:31.

North Korea has now tested more than 20 missiles this year alone,

:05:32.:05:34.

and the aim of the country's leader is simple -

:05:35.:05:37.

to be able to fire a nuclear weapon wherever he wants.

:05:38.:05:44.

when it tested two long-range intercontinental ballistic missiles,

:05:45.:05:50.

potentially able to reach the US mainland, prompting this.

:05:51.:05:55.

They will be met with fire and fury like the world has never seen.

:05:56.:06:02.

In response, North Korea threatened to strike Guam,

:06:03.:06:05.

the US island territory in the Pacific.

:06:06.:06:08.

After today's test, the now familiar words of condemnation.

:06:09.:06:12.

These are illegal tests, we strongly condemn them,

:06:13.:06:14.

and we will be working with Japan and other international partners

:06:15.:06:21.

to ensure that pressure is put on North Korea

:06:22.:06:23.

This evening, diplomats are meeting in emergency session

:06:24.:06:26.

at the United Nations, once again asking what can be done

:06:27.:06:29.

President Trump said all options were on the table.

:06:30.:06:35.

No country should have missiles flying over them,

:06:36.:06:41.

like those 130 million people in Japan.

:06:42.:06:44.

It's unacceptable, they have violated every single UN

:06:45.:06:47.

Security Council resolution that we've had,

:06:48.:06:49.

and so I think something serious has to happen.

:06:50.:06:52.

There could be more diplomacy, with the tough talk in public

:06:53.:06:56.

matched with quieter discussions in private.

:06:57.:06:59.

But North Korea shows no sign it's ready to listen.

:07:00.:07:04.

The international community could impose stricter sanctions,

:07:05.:07:07.

but experts say these will bite only if they stopped the

:07:08.:07:10.

And the least likely option is military action,

:07:11.:07:15.

as any attempt to destroy North Korea's nuclear capability

:07:16.:07:18.

could lead to massive retaliation against South Korea.

:07:19.:07:19.

I think the bottom line is there is no magic bullet,

:07:20.:07:22.

no one of these options is going to deliver

:07:23.:07:27.

We will need some sort of coordinated, combined response.

:07:28.:07:34.

The US and South Korea are carrying out military exercises

:07:35.:07:42.

that presume invasion from the North.

:07:43.:07:43.

China and Russia say it is this that has provoked

:07:44.:07:46.

And the crisis is now at a tipping point,

:07:47.:07:49.

so the missiles keep flying, North Korea's capability grows,

:07:50.:07:52.

and the international community struggles for a meaningful response.

:07:53.:07:57.

Rupert Wingfield-Hayes in is Tokyo now.

:07:58.:08:07.

That is the big question, how the international community response.

:08:08.:08:14.

Yes, Sophie, and I agree with what James said there. I mean, we will

:08:15.:08:19.

see the normal noises and processes that we have come to be familiar

:08:20.:08:23.

with, UN Security Council resolutions, more sanctions against

:08:24.:08:27.

North Korea, more pressure from America and its allies on China to

:08:28.:08:31.

do something. But I think, realistically, as James said, there

:08:32.:08:35.

are no good options, and it is not what people want to hear, but the

:08:36.:08:44.

only thing the international community really has to fall back on

:08:45.:08:47.

is the thing that has worked for the last 65 years, since the end of the

:08:48.:08:50.

Korean War. Of course, there will be things like more missile defence,

:08:51.:08:53.

but it comes down to deterrence, the US and its allies, Japan and South

:08:54.:08:57.

Korea, sticking together and sticking to this promise to North

:08:58.:09:01.

Korea that if you attack any of us, you attack all of us, and that if

:09:02.:09:06.

you do so, there will be an overwhelming military response from

:09:07.:09:09.

the United States in particular. That is what has kept the peace in

:09:10.:09:13.

this region on the Korean Peninsula for 65 years, and it is the thing

:09:14.:09:18.

that underpins stability in this region today. But as James said,

:09:19.:09:23.

these missile tests are testing those alliances, and they are making

:09:24.:09:27.

the situation more and more difficult each time there is an

:09:28.:09:30.

escalation. Rupert, in Tokyo, thank you.

:09:31.:09:32.

to meet officials dealing with the devastating flooding

:09:33.:09:35.

in the wake of Tropical Storm Harvey.

:09:36.:09:37.

More than four foot of rain has now fallen in Houston, Texas

:09:38.:09:40.

More than 30,000 people have been forced

:09:41.:09:45.

which has set a new record for rainfall in the state.

:09:46.:09:49.

Two dams near the city have begun overflowing,

:09:50.:09:51.

The dark blue areas on this map show when the rain has been falling most

:09:52.:10:00.

heavily. The authorities are warning that

:10:01.:10:02.

water levels will continue to rise. Our correspondent

:10:03.:10:04.

James Cook is in Houston. Yes, Sophie, I am standing between

:10:05.:10:15.

the two reservoirs which are flooding more than 3000 homes in

:10:16.:10:19.

this area alone. At least 11 people are now known to have died, and

:10:20.:10:24.

incredibly, Harris county, which includes Houston and 4.5 million

:10:25.:10:26.

people, is said to be 30% flooded. He's not the only one

:10:27.:10:29.

finding it tough. It's now four days

:10:30.:10:34.

since the hurricane, and still the rescues

:10:35.:10:36.

roll on and on. We're trying to get

:10:37.:10:39.

to a safer, drier place so... How's the baby doing?

:10:40.:10:42.

Oh, he's fine, he's just scared. Are you scared?

:10:43.:10:44.

Just a little bit, yeah. In the chaos, though,

:10:45.:10:47.

there is some order. The boats have come

:10:48.:10:50.

from all over the United States, There are a lot of people,

:10:51.:10:52.

they need help, and I'm thankful for these people,

:10:53.:10:58.

really am, I've never been Police, soldiers, civilians,

:10:59.:11:01.

all working together. From above, they can see the

:11:02.:11:11.

problem, and it's a big one. A reservoir a few blocks

:11:12.:11:14.

away is overflowing. It was built 80 years ago to protect

:11:15.:11:17.

the young city of Houston, The pool of the reservoir

:11:18.:11:20.

is still rising, so flooding is going to continue along

:11:21.:11:30.

the structures and the homes that are against the western

:11:31.:11:33.

edge of the pool. New streets will continue to flood,

:11:34.:11:35.

new homes will continue to flood. This is now what much

:11:36.:11:45.

of Houston and It's eerie here.

:11:46.:11:47.

Everyone seems to have fled. And although the scale of this

:11:48.:11:54.

disaster is striking, Much of this water will eventually

:11:55.:11:56.

work its way downstream to the city itself where they are already

:11:57.:12:00.

struggling to cope. This shelter ran out

:12:01.:12:02.

of beds yesterday. Since then,

:12:03.:12:04.

4000 more people have arrived. Even that is just a fraction

:12:05.:12:08.

of the number looking for a haven. When it's raining outside, some

:12:09.:12:11.

people can't imagine a sunny day. We need more physicians,

:12:12.:12:14.

more doctors, more health care, For Houston, and for the US,

:12:15.:12:22.

this is a wake-up yell. A giant of global commerce

:12:23.:12:30.

has been paralysed. Should the city have been evacuated?

:12:31.:12:35.

The mayor says no. You can't put 6.5 million people on

:12:36.:12:38.

the road two days before a storm when you don't know

:12:39.:12:41.

where it's going. But the fabric of this

:12:42.:12:43.

city is now tearing. Even motorways are giving way,

:12:44.:12:51.

and as more deaths are reported, including one police officer,

:12:52.:12:54.

the strain is beginning to show. it was too treacherous

:12:55.:12:59.

to go under and look for him. So we made the decision

:13:00.:13:04.

to leave officers there Because as much as we wanted

:13:05.:13:08.

to recover him last night, we couldn't put more

:13:09.:13:17.

officers at risk for what we knew in our hearts

:13:18.:13:19.

was going to be a recovery mission. Every hour brings news

:13:20.:13:23.

of more rescues, more people trapped,

:13:24.:13:26.

and more damage. With nearly 50 inches of rain, this

:13:27.:13:29.

is now a record-breaking disaster. Well, President Trump flew

:13:30.:13:32.

into Texas a few hours ago to assess for himself the damage caused

:13:33.:13:40.

by the massive storm. He has been meeting emergency

:13:41.:13:43.

workers in Corpus Christi where the storm first hit,

:13:44.:13:46.

dumping record amounts of rain Donald Trump said he wanted

:13:47.:13:48.

the relief effort to stand as an example of how to respond

:13:49.:13:52.

to a storm. Our North America editor,

:13:53.:13:54.

Jon Sopel, reports from Texas. A Commander-in-Chief determined

:13:55.:13:59.

to show that he is in command. President Trump arrived

:14:00.:14:04.

in Corpus Christi this lunchtime, the city where Hurricane Harvey

:14:05.:14:08.

made landfall, and the crowds had gathered outside

:14:09.:14:11.

the fire station to hear him. He'd come to offer

:14:12.:14:15.

comfort and support. Though it sounded more

:14:16.:14:19.

like a campaign rally. This is historic, it's

:14:20.:14:25.

epic, what happened. it happened in Texas,

:14:26.:14:27.

and Texas can handle anything. And with a flourish,

:14:28.:14:31.

he produced the flag Earlier he met the Texas

:14:32.:14:38.

governor, Greg Abbott, and praised the co-operation

:14:39.:14:50.

between state and We don't want to do that.

:14:51.:14:54.

We don't want to congratulate. We'll congratulate each other

:14:55.:14:59.

when it's all finished. Contrast that with 12 years ago,

:15:00.:15:02.

and the disastrous handling of Hurricane Katrina and

:15:03.:15:07.

this utterly tone-deaf comment from then President Bush

:15:08.:15:08.

to his emergency relief coordinator. And, Brownie, you're

:15:09.:15:11.

doing a heck of a job. and in New Orleans

:15:12.:15:14.

it was particularly bad. but it seemed that all those

:15:15.:15:24.

who left behind were black. President Bush's reputation

:15:25.:15:28.

wouldn't recover. The response to Harvey has been

:15:29.:15:33.

more sure-footed, so far. Across this vast state,

:15:34.:15:37.

damage is being assessed. So how far has it moved?

:15:38.:15:41.

Moved across there. So your home has moved

:15:42.:15:45.

across the street? Uh-huh. This mother, too, shows her children

:15:46.:15:48.

where their house once stood. This is just one small

:15:49.:15:52.

town in Texas, and it's estimated that some 500

:15:53.:15:54.

homes have been destroyed here. At this trailer park,

:15:55.:15:57.

you can see that particular house has been uprooted,

:15:58.:16:01.

fallen on top of a car. And if we just move across,

:16:02.:16:04.

you can see the water That's because there is a cracked

:16:05.:16:06.

gas line underneath and for the emergency services,

:16:07.:16:12.

it means it is still too We're still in the foothills

:16:13.:16:15.

of this disaster. Thousands will remain

:16:16.:16:21.

homeless for months to come. There's an economic

:16:22.:16:24.

reckoning to be had. Will Congress agree

:16:25.:16:26.

to fund the rebuilding? And the biggest question

:16:27.:16:30.

of them all, as Louisiana stands next in the path,

:16:31.:16:34.

has Tropical Storm Harvey done his worst, or is there more

:16:35.:16:36.

devastation to come? Well, Jon Sopel is now in Austin

:16:37.:16:38.

where President Trump has just been All eyes on how the President deals

:16:39.:16:52.

with this. How much is riding on it for him? Well, Sophie, you started

:16:53.:16:56.

your bulletin tonight with the situation in North Korea. That is

:16:57.:17:00.

undoubtedly the biggest international challenge that Donald

:17:01.:17:03.

Trump faces, but if you look at the domestic scene, well, this is

:17:04.:17:08.

undoubtedly the biggest thing he has yet to deal with since he took

:17:09.:17:12.

office? January. So far you'd have to say he's handling it very well.

:17:13.:17:16.

In terms of the immediate aftermath of the storm, he was pulling all the

:17:17.:17:20.

levers of government that he could to make sure that the Federal rescue

:17:21.:17:25.

effort was in harmony with what was happening at state level as well.

:17:26.:17:29.

You say he's been here today. He is due to leave from this airport very

:17:30.:17:33.

shortly. He was also very careful to avoid the criticism that he was

:17:34.:17:39.

diverting resources away from where the rescue and recovery effort was

:17:40.:17:42.

under way. He went to Corpus Christi, where the situation is not

:17:43.:17:47.

too bad he's come here to Austin, which is where the rescue is being

:17:48.:17:51.

co-ordinated from without getting in the way and diverting resources. He

:17:52.:17:57.

has been sensitive to that as well. He says he's coming back on Saturday

:17:58.:18:02.

to revisit and see the progress that's been made. As I said, there

:18:03.:18:08.

is an awful long way to do. There is a recognise reckoning to be had

:18:09.:18:11.

about the economic and human cost of this disaster. He seems to have

:18:12.:18:16.

avoided some of the pit Walls false that George W Bush George W Bush

:18:17.:18:20.

George W Bush fell into there's a long way to go to. Donald Trump

:18:21.:18:25.

knows the favourable reports he's getting now might not last if things

:18:26.:18:30.

go wrong. Jon Sopel, in Texas, thank you.

:18:31.:18:34.

Here, Theresa May has been accused of "watering down" plans to tackle

:18:35.:18:37.

From next June, Britain's biggest firms will have to reveal how much

:18:38.:18:41.

more their chief executives are paid compared with the average worker.

:18:42.:18:43.

But critics have called the Government's attempt to make

:18:44.:18:45.

boardrooms more transparent and accountable "feeble" and not

:18:46.:18:48.

Here's our business editor, Simon Jack.

:18:49.:18:52.

A leadership and an election pitch to a party and a public that had

:18:53.:18:55.

We all know that in recent years the reputation of business

:18:56.:19:05.

That when a minority of businesses and business figures appear to game

:19:06.:19:09.

the system and work to a different set of rules.

:19:10.:19:12.

I'm putting you on warning, this can't go on any more,

:19:13.:19:15.

a change has got to come and this party is going to make it.

:19:16.:19:18.

Since then, promises have been gradually shelved.

:19:19.:19:26.

A pledge to put workers on company boards was dropped,

:19:27.:19:29.

as was a plan to give shareholders a binding annual vote

:19:30.:19:31.

However, by forcing companies to publish the difference

:19:32.:19:39.

between its top earner and its average earner,

:19:40.:19:41.

this Government has gone further than previous ones.

:19:42.:19:48.

When boards are setting pay, and when they're disclosing pay,

:19:49.:19:53.

they shouldn't do it with an eye on pay in the board,

:19:54.:19:56.

but they should look at pay across the company and be prepared

:19:57.:19:59.

to set out publicly how they can justify boardroom pay,

:20:00.:20:02.

in the context of the pay that the rest of the workforce get.

:20:03.:20:05.

Those numbers could prove embarrassing.

:20:06.:20:10.

Last year the average boss of a top 100 company made

:20:11.:20:12.

That's a 129 times as much as his or her average employee

:20:13.:20:20.

and that's compared to 20 years ago, when the boss earned only 47 times

:20:21.:20:24.

We haven't been able to track the gap between top pay and the rest

:20:25.:20:33.

without these pay ratios based on good data.

:20:34.:20:35.

No government has put this through before and the truth is,

:20:36.:20:38.

if you want to know how much a fat cat weighs, you do have to put them

:20:39.:20:42.

There's already some evidence that the pay gap between the top

:20:43.:20:47.

floor and the shop floor is beginning to narrow and this

:20:48.:20:50.

extra transparency can only help that, but for many today's package

:20:51.:20:54.

of reforms falls a long way short of the big business shake-up

:20:55.:20:57.

that was promised by a leader trying to portray the Conservatives

:20:58.:20:59.

as the party of the worker, not just of the boss.

:21:00.:21:03.

The Prime Minister has broken repeated promises

:21:04.:21:06.

to tackle boardroom greed, to put workers on the board

:21:07.:21:09.

and shake-up corporate culture and instead she's delivered a feeble

:21:10.:21:12.

Business groups were generally supportive of today's proposals,

:21:13.:21:20.

perhaps glad that promises made in the bubble of campaigning

:21:21.:21:23.

can often be hard to deliver in the real world.

:21:24.:21:25.

A brief look at some of the day's other news stories.

:21:26.:21:35.

Investigations are continuing into the death

:21:36.:21:37.

The youngster's body was found in the swimming pool

:21:38.:21:41.

of an activity centre after he had been reported missing.

:21:42.:21:47.

The head of Network Rail has apologised after passengers

:21:48.:21:51.

travelling into London Waterloo, the UK's busiest railway station,

:21:52.:21:53.

The station had reopened today after three weeks

:21:54.:21:59.

of engineering works, but rush hour services on several

:22:00.:22:01.

lines into Waterloo this morning were cancelled

:22:02.:22:03.

The president of the European Commission, Jean-Claude Juncker,

:22:04.:22:12.

has told the British Government that none of its Brexit position papers

:22:13.:22:15.

is "satisfactory" and an "enormous" amount needs to be settled before

:22:16.:22:18.

One of the key issues Brussels wants to agree on first is the status

:22:19.:22:23.

of more than 3.5 million EU nationals who live

:22:24.:22:25.

Our correspondent, Emma Simpson, has been talking to some of them

:22:26.:22:29.

David Lenehan runs a small family business in Blackburn repairing

:22:30.:22:37.

and revamping old industrial parts, he says his foreign

:22:38.:22:39.

And finally Lisa, who moved here two years ago, from France.

:22:40.:23:02.

Am I allowed to stay or shall I have to go back to France?

:23:03.:23:05.

My future is between the hands of the politicians,

:23:06.:23:17.

they decide, not me, and so that's quite stressful.

:23:18.:23:19.

If an EU national has lived for more than five years in the UK,

:23:20.:23:24.

they'll be able to apply for what's called "settled status."

:23:25.:23:26.

They'll be able to live, work and access benefits.

:23:27.:23:28.

If they've lived here for fewer than five years,

:23:29.:23:32.

they can apply to stay to reach settled status.

:23:33.:23:38.

The cut-off date will be no later than March 29th 2019,

:23:39.:23:41.

It's not clear, though, what'll happen in the long-term to any EU

:23:42.:23:46.

For the EU, the UK's proposals need more than just

:23:47.:23:55.

They want EU nationals in the UK to have the same protection

:23:56.:24:00.

There are worries over eligibility, the cut off date, they want

:24:01.:24:13.

The big stumbling block, though, is over who will

:24:14.:24:17.

The UK says - look, these are, basically, UK immigration law rights

:24:18.:24:22.

and should be enforced by British courts and the British courts

:24:23.:24:25.

EU says - actually, these EU nationals have moved under EU law

:24:26.:24:29.

and their rights should be protected through the EU mechanisms, the

:24:30.:24:32.

So what's the view from this factory floor?

:24:33.:24:37.

Most EU staff here don't seem phased by the uncertainty.

:24:38.:24:45.

The Brexit won't change my plans because I know I can provide

:24:46.:24:48.

here a better future for my daughter.

:24:49.:24:52.

They're selling more stuff abroad thanks to the fall in the pound,

:24:53.:24:55.

Last year we did 132 countries and language is a key

:24:56.:25:02.

If we can speak the local language, we can get a sale.

:25:03.:25:08.

Blackburn's not really that inundated with language speaking

:25:09.:25:12.

So since Brexit, we've found it hard to find people, really.

:25:13.:25:20.

One Italian employee has already left, the rest

:25:21.:25:22.

They just want to know what the deal is going to be.

:25:23.:25:26.

Well, the latest round of Brexit talks are continuing in Brussels,

:25:27.:25:30.

let's talk to our Europe correspondent, Damian Grammaticas.

:25:31.:25:32.

EU nationals is one key area, another big one is money,

:25:33.:25:35.

Sophie, yes. This is the issue I think that could be most likely to

:25:36.:25:44.

scupper the entire process. The one about which tensions are really

:25:45.:25:48.

starting to rise. The EU believes it has an agreement on how the talks

:25:49.:25:54.

should happen. Currently they should Coe foe focus on the legacy issue,

:25:55.:25:58.

citizens right, money and things like, that moving to the trade deal

:25:59.:26:02.

later. David Davies and Number Ten are impatient they want to get on

:26:03.:26:05.

with the trade talks immediately saying there are issues that need to

:26:06.:26:12.

be sorted out now. The EU side has produced payers laying out how the

:26:13.:26:17.

bills can be calculated. The UK side hasn't produced papers. David Davies

:26:18.:26:21.

doesn't want to be tied down. The UK negotiators have been going through

:26:22.:26:26.

challenging the EU to provide legal justifications for those sums. That

:26:27.:26:30.

I think is leading to tensions on the EU side and, remember,

:26:31.:26:36.

Jean-Claude Juncker says, he repeated it today, there will be no

:26:37.:26:43.

move to trade talks unless the EU is satisfied on all of these legacy

:26:44.:26:47.

issues. So the stakes are really rising. Indeed. Damian, thank you.

:26:48.:26:52.

Cricket, and the West Indies have won a Test in England for the first

:26:53.:26:56.

time in 17 years in a dramatic final day at Headingley.

:26:57.:26:58.

Shai Hope led the way to a five-wicket win as he became

:26:59.:27:01.

the first batsman to score hundreds in both innings of a first-class

:27:02.:27:04.

At Headingley they take history seriously, it stares back

:27:05.:27:08.

Who would be next to make their mark?

:27:09.:27:12.

England began the day as big favourites, but this is the Test

:27:13.:27:15.

And he was again here, but Stuart Broad inadvertently

:27:16.:27:23.

condemned the other batsmen, Kyle Hope.

:27:24.:27:26.

Two down, the moment Hope ran out, or not.

:27:27.:27:31.

West Indies were mocked before this Test, written off even last night,

:27:32.:27:34.

but were making a point with every run.

:27:35.:27:37.

Shai Hope and Brathwaite were taking this away from England,

:27:38.:27:39.

England need seven wickets to win, the West Indies 122 runs,

:27:40.:27:50.

A time for heroes, even unlikely ones.

:27:51.:27:56.

What about substitute fielder, Mason Crane, what a catch.

:27:57.:27:58.

England couldn't get the important one.

:27:59.:28:10.

Shai Hope made 100 for the second time in the match,

:28:11.:28:12.

Others helped, but it was fitting that he scored the runs

:28:13.:28:16.

which secured victory before time ran out.

:28:17.:28:18.

on a day of hope and history at Headingley.

:28:19.:28:20.

Finally, she starred as Queen Victoria in the critically

:28:21.:28:26.

Now two decades later, Dame Judi Dench is playing

:28:27.:28:30.

Victoria once again, this time as the ageing monarch

:28:31.:28:33.

Victoria and Abdul tells the true story of the close,

:28:34.:28:37.

but controversial friendship which grew between the Queen

:28:38.:28:39.

and an Indian clerk who'd been sent to present her with a gift

:28:40.:28:42.

Our arts editor, Will Gompertz, reports.

:28:43.:28:44.

On set for the filming of Victoria and Abdul...

:28:45.:28:49.

..director Stephen Frears latest movie, starring Judi Dench

:28:50.:28:55.

as the oxygenarian Queen and Ali Fazal as a young Indian

:28:56.:28:58.

clerk with whom she develops a surprisingly special relationship.

:28:59.:29:01.

You're playing Victoria at the age she was.

:29:02.:29:20.

Yes, so the age you are now - That she was, that I am.

:29:21.:29:25.

So you're the age she was, that's what I'm trying to say.

:29:26.:29:30.

Can you relate to that relationship she's having with Abdul,

:29:31.:29:32.

Then I've always been a rather susceptible person.

:29:33.:29:40.

So I understand that very much indeed.

:29:41.:29:42.

I think she was looking for somebody that she didn't

:29:43.:29:44.

But whatever you do, you must not look at Her Majesty.

:29:45.:29:48.

Do you think she fell in love with him?

:29:49.:29:50.

Could you fall in love with, I mean, what is he -

:29:51.:29:58.

Of all the things you've done, of all the parts you've played,

:29:59.:30:28.

I loved playing Cleopatra because, when I said

:30:29.:30:38.

I was going to do it, people were openingly quite rude.

:30:39.:30:41.

You know, they said - "Cleopatra, is that your part?"

:30:42.:30:43.

I never thought that I'd be in a Bond film, and I had the most

:30:44.:30:47.

glorious time bossing him about and sitting behind that desk.

:30:48.:30:49.

Victoria and Abdul is based on a true, if little-known story.

:30:50.:30:56.

A slice of Victorian history about class,

:30:57.:30:58.

race and religious intolerance that speaks to today's

:30:59.:31:00.

And I'm the Queen of England, I will have whatever help I require.

:31:01.:31:06.

Tonight, Hurricane Harvey becomes a test for the President.

:31:07.:31:17.

Donald Trump lands in Texas as the floodwaters rise.

:31:18.:31:19.

And we ask if the knives are now out for Boris Johnson.
