News International denies claims that e-mails in relation to the | :00:10. | :00:14. | |
phone hacking scandal at the News of the World were deliberately | :00:14. | :00:18. | |
destroyed. As journalists work on the last ever edition, the Labour | :00:18. | :00:23. | |
has called for a start to the inquiry. | :00:23. | :00:28. | |
A review into the Mull of Kintyre helicopter crash 17 years ago | :00:28. | :00:33. | |
concludes that the pilots should not have been blamed for gross | :00:33. | :00:37. | |
negligence. And South Sudan formerly declares its independence. | :00:37. | :00:41. | |
The Duke and the Duchess of Cambridge arrive in Los Angeles and | :00:41. | :00:45. | |
see some familiar faces as they continue their Royal Tour. | :00:45. | :00:49. | |
In Formula One, Mark Webber is to start in poll position at | :00:49. | :00:59. | |

Good evening. Downing Street has insisted it is | :01:07. | :01:12. | |
working as quickly as possible to set up a judicial inquiry into the | :01:12. | :01:15. | |
allegations of phone hacking at the News of the World. Labour says that | :01:15. | :01:19. | |
the judge leading the investigation should be apointed to preserve | :01:19. | :01:25. | |
evidence. It follows claims that millions of e-mails relating to the | :01:25. | :01:29. | |
inquiry have been deleted. Staff the in order are preparing the | :01:29. | :01:33. | |
final edition of the paper. Our correspondent is at News | :01:33. | :01:35. | |
International headquarters in Wapping now. | :01:35. | :01:41. | |
Collette? Yes, well a short time ago Rupert Murdoch, the chairman of | :01:41. | :01:43. | |
News Corporation said that the decision to close the News of the | :01:43. | :01:47. | |
World was a collective one. He is to fly to the UK tomorrow to try to | :01:47. | :01:52. | |
sort out this mess, but it will not come as comfort for the staff | :01:52. | :01:56. | |
nationwide there as they are paying a high price for the shameful | :01:56. | :02:01. | |
behaviour of a few. He used to be their editor. Today | :02:01. | :02:05. | |
he esent them a message. I think that this is a very sad day | :02:05. | :02:11. | |
for the News of the World. More importantly for the staff. | :02:11. | :02:19. | |
They are brilliant, to my mind brilliant professional people. | :02:19. | :02:23. | |
Coulson himself has been swept up by the phone hacking scrappedal, | :02:23. | :02:27. | |
arrested and questioned by the police yesterday, he said he knew | :02:27. | :02:31. | |
nothing about the practise when he was in charge here. No matter, the | :02:31. | :02:35. | |
avalanche of revelations has brought down the paper. These | :02:35. | :02:38. | |
journalists today were working their last shift. | :02:38. | :02:41. | |
We are pulling together, I think that we have so much personal pride | :02:41. | :02:46. | |
in what we do and that will definitely come across in the | :02:46. | :02:49. | |
newspaper. Rupert Murdoch is not leafing | :02:49. | :02:54. | |
anything to chance. Flying into London this weekend to take charge | :02:54. | :02:58. | |
of the biggest crisis 6 his company's News Corporation's | :02:58. | :03:02. | |
history. He has a lot to deal with. Already the Prime Minister has | :03:02. | :03:05. | |
announced two inquiries, to untangle the web of deceit at the | :03:05. | :03:10. | |
News of the World. One to be led by a judge to investigate why phone | :03:10. | :03:13. | |
hacking spread and why the police failed to uncover it. The other to | :03:13. | :03:17. | |
look into the ethics and the regulations of the media, but | :03:17. | :03:21. | |
Labour is demanding a judge is appointed today in case evidence | :03:21. | :03:25. | |
destroyed. We need a proper inquiry, it will | :03:25. | :03:30. | |
be I measurably more difficult for the judge if the staff have all | :03:30. | :03:34. | |
been dispersed and he cannot get in touch with them to give evidence to | :03:34. | :03:39. | |
the inquiry and to -- and if all of the computers have disappeared. | :03:40. | :03:49. | |
:03:50. | :03:53. | ||
And News International denied the allegations that it had destroyed | :03:53. | :03:57. | |
some evidence. So, today is the final chant fer the News of the | :03:57. | :04:02. | |
World's long history. A tabloid that uncovered many scandals, | :04:02. | :04:06. | |
ultimately brought down by one of its own making. | :04:06. | :04:10. | |
Well, here is the irony, tomorrow, although it is the last edition of | :04:10. | :04:14. | |
the News of the World, a double print run has been ordered. Coppice | :04:14. | :04:20. | |
of the paper are selling on e-mail. What story will lead the final | :04:20. | :04:24. | |
edition, if it is a story at all, not just a goodbye, we don't know | :04:24. | :04:28. | |
yet, but we only have a few hours to wait until we find out. | :04:28. | :04:33. | |
Thank you very much. Now we can cross to Westminster and | :04:33. | :04:37. | |
our Political Correspondent eCarole Walker. So, Labour are getting | :04:37. | :04:42. | |
mileage out of keeping the pressure on David Cameron? Yes, I think that | :04:42. | :04:45. | |
this is an attempt to keep the political pressure on the Prime | :04:45. | :04:49. | |
Minister. As you heard, Labour's Deputy Leader, Harriet Harman | :04:49. | :04:54. | |
saying that the clock is ticking. That once the paper is closed and | :04:55. | :04:58. | |
the staff dispersed for an inquiry it will be difficult to get to the | :04:58. | :05:01. | |
bottom of what has happened. Downing Street has asked -- been | :05:01. | :05:06. | |
asked to come up with names of a judge. It wants to consult with the | :05:06. | :05:11. | |
alleged victims of the phone hacking and get legal advice for | :05:11. | :05:15. | |
the right remit. This is to be discussed with Ed | :05:15. | :05:18. | |
Miliband on Wednesday. Privately, Conservative sources are saying it | :05:18. | :05:21. | |
is ridiculous for Labour to make political capital out of this. | :05:21. | :05:27. | |
Thank you very much. The BBC has learned that an | :05:27. | :05:32. | |
official review into an RAF helicopter crash on the Mull of | :05:33. | :05:36. | |
Kintyre 17 years ago that killed all 29 people on board is expected | :05:36. | :05:42. | |
to say that the two pilots should not have been accused of gross | :05:42. | :05:46. | |
negligence. The independent report, is expected to come out next week. | :05:46. | :05:54. | |
It was presided over by Lord Philip. It was the RAF's worst peace time | :05:54. | :06:02. | |
accident. The RAF Chinook Special Forces aircrew were taking 25 | :06:02. | :06:06. | |
senior intelligence and security officers from Northern Ireland to | :06:06. | :06:11. | |
Inverness. It hit a cloud-covered Mull of Kintyre, killing all on | :06:11. | :06:16. | |
board. The two pilots flying the Chinook | :06:16. | :06:19. | |
were Flight Lieutenant Jonathan Tapper and Flight Lieutenant | :06:19. | :06:24. | |
Richard Cook N 1995, an RAF inquiry found no conclusive evidence to | :06:24. | :06:29. | |
determine the cause of the crash, but a review by two marshals found | :06:29. | :06:34. | |
the pilots goesly negligent for flying too fast and low in thick | :06:34. | :06:41. | |
fog N 1996, it was left open the question of blame. In 2000, a | :06:41. | :06:45. | |
public accounts Committee report said that the pilot error could not | :06:45. | :06:50. | |
be proved beyond doubt. Last year, the current inquiry opened by Dr | :06:50. | :06:54. | |
Liam Fox and he asked Lord Philip to conduct a review of the evidence. | :06:54. | :06:58. | |
We had all expected that the verdict from the original board of | :06:58. | :07:01. | |
inquiry that said that there was gross negligence was wrong, that it | :07:01. | :07:08. | |
was probably immorale. That they had to find in some way a way of | :07:08. | :07:13. | |
listening for that cupability, but it does not take away that the | :07:13. | :07:17. | |
aircrew flew into a hill when they probably did not need to. | :07:17. | :07:22. | |
An odd odd spokesperson said that an announce -- an Ministry of | :07:22. | :07:26. | |
Defence spokesperson said that an announcement would be made shortly. | :07:26. | :07:31. | |
Tens of thousands of people have attended a ceremony in South Sudan | :07:31. | :07:34. | |
to mark its formal Declaration of Independence. The birth of the | :07:35. | :07:39. | |
world's newest nation comes after two decades of Civil War that has | :07:39. | :07:45. | |
cost the lives of some 2 million people. A peace deal paved the way | :07:45. | :07:50. | |
for autonomy, but there are fears of a new conflict between the north | :07:50. | :07:55. | |
and the south. From Juba, we have this report. | :07:55. | :07:59. | |
The moment that the clucks -- clocks turned midnight, the party | :07:59. | :08:02. | |
began. Euphoria on the streets of Juba. | :08:03. | :08:07. | |
Then for the official ceremony to mark the birth of this new nation, | :08:07. | :08:11. | |
they came in their tens of thousands. | :08:11. | :08:17. | |
Every vantage point was taken. Even the old enemy was here. Relations | :08:17. | :08:21. | |
are strained between the north and the south, but the President came | :08:21. | :08:25. | |
with a message of peace. As the President of South Sudan was sworn | :08:25. | :08:30. | |
in, he promised better days ahead for this troubled country. | :08:30. | :08:34. | |
Promote the unity of the people of South Sudan. | :08:34. | :08:39. | |
Today was all about celebrating the end of a long struggle for freedom. | :08:39. | :08:43. | |
Well, this is the moment that so many people have been waiting for, | :08:43. | :08:47. | |
the birth of a new nation. South Sudan has been waiting a long time | :08:47. | :08:54. | |
for this. I feel so happy, really! There are | :08:54. | :08:58. | |
so many people who are really very happy indeed. | :08:58. | :09:02. | |
Dignitaries from around the world were here. They want the aid money | :09:02. | :09:05. | |
spent well. It will be tough love, really, to | :09:05. | :09:11. | |
use that expression. We are giving them a lot of help, support, advice | :09:11. | :09:15. | |
and expertise, but also saying it must be a functioning state. | :09:15. | :09:19. | |
This new nation faces great challenges, but today people here | :09:19. | :09:29. | |
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are in California and tonight they | :09:29. | :09:32. | |
are attending a gala dinner with some of the biggest names in | :09:32. | :09:38. | |
Hollywood, but it is not just about the glitz and the glamour, but a | :09:38. | :09:44. | |
chance to promote some of Britain's brightest talents. | :09:44. | :09:51. | |
Champagne in Tinseltown. After Canada, the Duke and the Duchess of | :09:51. | :09:54. | |
Cambridge will be doubtless be a hit in Hollywood. | :09:54. | :09:58. | |
Here was a chance to meet some of the Brits in Hollywood, but making | :09:58. | :10:02. | |
it here is not always easy, especially in the entertainment | :10:02. | :10:07. | |
industry, but it is something that the royal couple have helped to | :10:07. | :10:11. | |
agree with -- have agreed to help with. | :10:11. | :10:18. | |
The hottest ticket is here for this dinner to see the royal couple. On | :10:18. | :10:23. | |
each of the tables are two spare seats for young, up and coming | :10:23. | :10:26. | |
British talent, the chance of a life time to have the right word in | :10:26. | :10:31. | |
the right ear. One of those with a golden ticket is Sabrina | :10:31. | :10:38. | |
Doyle. A student director. Another is David Buckley. | :10:38. | :10:44. | |
He is a TV and film composer. Obviously, to be with such a small | :10:44. | :10:49. | |
amount of people and in such an impressive and distinguished event, | :10:49. | :10:55. | |
it is very flattering and humbling. Presenter Cat Dealy is already | :10:55. | :11:00. | |
becoming a household name here, she is introducing the young talent. | :11:00. | :11:04. | |
To get them all in one room at one place and time is a great thing. | :11:04. | :11:09. | |
Only good things come from that. If it takes the royal couple to get | :11:09. | :11:17. | |
them together, so be it. So, William and Catherine go to | :11:17. | :11:21. | |
Hollywood. It promises to be a high rolling affair as the couple help | :11:21. | :11:27. | |
to sell Britain in Hollywood. To sport and Red Bull's Mark Webber | :11:27. | :11:32. | |
is to start from poll position at tomorrow's British Grand Prix with | :11:32. | :11:36. | |
Sebastian Vettel beside him. It will be a tough race for Britain's | :11:36. | :11:39. | |
drivers with Jenson Button qualifying highest in fifth place | :11:39. | :11:45. | |
and Mo Mowlam back in tenth. With its new buildings and | :11:45. | :11:51. | |
thousands of expectant fans, the screen was set at Silverstone, but | :11:51. | :11:55. | |
sadly, not for British success. Jenson Button and Mo Mowlam both | :11:55. | :12:01. | |
struggled, they were fifth and tenth and worryingly off the pace. | :12:01. | :12:08. | |
-- Mo Mowlam. -- Lewis Hamilton. | :12:08. | :12:13. | |
Some drivers opted for the seenic route, but no-one could catch the | :12:13. | :12:17. | |
Red Bulls. They shrugged off a technical row, to qualify first and | :12:18. | :12:20. | |
second. Mark Webber edging out Sebastian | :12:20. | :12:24. | |
Vettel. Another great day for the Red Bull | :12:24. | :12:29. |
