Good evening. More than 2000 people have now been | :01:14. | :01:18. | |
arrested and over 1000 charged in connection with last weeks riots. | :01:18. | :01:21. | |
Courts in London and Manchester have held special weekend sessions | :01:21. | :01:24. | |
to deal with the numbers and police have published more images of | :01:24. | :01:28. | |
suspects. The Chancellor, George Osborne, today said the violence | :01:28. | :01:38. | |
showed how 'deep-seated problems in society' had to be tackled. | :01:38. | :01:41. | |
Today, police in London released more pictures of people they want | :01:42. | :01:47. | |
to trace in connection with the violence, disorder and looting were | :01:47. | :01:52. | |
the rioting flared. The round of continues. Tonight, 33-year-old man | :01:52. | :01:56. | |
has been arrested on suspicion of causing the fire which destroyed | :01:56. | :02:00. | |
the House of Reeves in Croydon. In the capital, the Metropolitan | :02:00. | :02:03. | |
Police say they have arrested more than 1,200 people in connection | :02:04. | :02:09. | |
with the riots. As a result, a court sat until 8pm this evening. | :02:09. | :02:13. | |
There will also sit Samarra to process the defendants as they come | :02:13. | :02:18. | |
to the system. One of those in court was accused of robbing a | :02:18. | :02:21. | |
student in Barking. These pictures caused an outcry when they were | :02:21. | :02:26. | |
broadcast. The Prime Minister said he felt disgusted when he saw them. | :02:26. | :02:30. | |
21-year-old Reece Donovan is accused of taking a phone and a | :02:30. | :02:34. | |
portable PlayStation from a bleeding and days Ashraf Rosli. He | :02:34. | :02:40. | |
was remanded in custody. A week after the trouble began, the | :02:40. | :02:42. | |
Chancellor has reiterated the Government's point, but the | :02:42. | :02:46. | |
underlying cause of the riots was not about a lack of money for the | :02:46. | :02:51. | |
police or the public. It is not just a question of money. If it was | :02:51. | :02:55. | |
just a question of money this would have been solved years ago. It is a | :02:55. | :02:58. | |
more deep-seated cultural change we need to bring about in the | :02:58. | :03:03. | |
community. The Labour leader, Ed Miliband, was out on the streets | :03:03. | :03:07. | |
talking to people in Hackney. Also pointing to problems at a social | :03:07. | :03:12. | |
level in an area hit by the trouble. We owe people duty to make sure we | :03:12. | :03:17. | |
learn lessons from what happened. That means having a proper, what I | :03:17. | :03:20. | |
call a national conversation, a Commission of inquiry that comes to | :03:20. | :03:26. | |
places like Hackney. Now, the American policeman famed for his | :03:26. | :03:31. | |
zero-tolerance approach to crime is going to advise the Government. | :03:31. | :03:35. | |
assignment is to focus more on the issues of the American experience | :03:35. | :03:40. | |
dealing with gangs and what we may be able to share with them. | :03:40. | :03:45. | |
tonight, a special vigil has been held in Ealing. The reflections on | :03:45. | :03:49. | |
a bad week continue. The families of three men, who died | :03:49. | :03:52. | |
after being hit by a car in Birmingham during the riots, today | :03:52. | :03:55. | |
called for justice to be done. The men were killed as they tried to | :03:55. | :03:58. | |
protect their properties from looters. Five people are now being | :03:58. | :04:08. | |
:04:08. | :04:12. | ||
held on suspicion of murder. They arrive with flowers, prayers | :04:12. | :04:22. | |
:04:22. | :04:23. | ||
and tears. The bus stop crime scene which has become a shrine. People | :04:23. | :04:29. | |
want justice for Haroon Jahan and the brothers, Shahzad Ali and Abdul | :04:29. | :04:34. | |
Musavir. All three died after a car ran them down as they tried to | :04:34. | :04:41. | |
protect their community from looters. Behind the practicalities | :04:41. | :04:45. | |
of this afternoon's news conference, where the families once again | :04:45. | :04:50. | |
appealed for calm and information, the trauma was still sinking in. | :04:50. | :04:58. | |
was excited and was looking forward to the birth of his first child. A | :04:58. | :05:03. | |
father who will never hold his child and a child who will never be | :05:03. | :05:09. | |
held by his father. A wife without a husband, parents who have lost | :05:09. | :05:17. | |
two sons. We are still looking for witnesses to come forward. And the | :05:17. | :05:21. | |
police need as much help as possible. There were times this | :05:21. | :05:25. | |
week when people felt they had lost control of their streets. But the | :05:25. | :05:30. | |
two families who lost their sons to the violence refused to retreat. As | :05:30. | :05:34. | |
they continue to grieve and call for peace, there has been an open | :05:34. | :05:38. | |
invitation for the whole of Birmingham to join them in this | :05:38. | :05:47. | |
Park tomorrow to try and ensure pieces kept. -- piece is kept. | :05:47. | :05:50. | |
Rebels in western Libya say they've advanced towards the port city of | :05:50. | :05:53. | |
Zawiyah, around 20 miles from Tripoli. It follows a push by | :05:53. | :05:56. | |
rebels on the town of Tawargha, east of the city of Misrata where | :05:56. | :05:59. | |
Colonel Gaddafi's forces had been launching rocket attacks. From | :05:59. | :06:08. | |
there, Orla Guerin sent this report. Closing in on Tawargha. The rebels | :06:08. | :06:13. | |
pushed across the desert and film their advance. They say it was | :06:13. | :06:19. | |
closely co-ordinated with NATO. This town was a key target. From | :06:19. | :06:25. | |
here, Colonel Gaddafi's men have been terrorising Misrata with long | :06:25. | :06:30. | |
range rocket. This man is convinced his home town will now be safe. | :06:30. | :06:36. | |
am so happy. I can sleep well and the children can sleep well. They | :06:36. | :06:43. | |
can play every work, not be afraid. They can do anything. After taking | :06:43. | :06:48. | |
control, the rebels rounded up suspects for interrogation. Both | :06:48. | :06:52. | |
Libyans and foreign workers. They told us they were not afraid, but | :06:52. | :06:59. | |
there were anxious faces. Where are the weapons, this fighter | :06:59. | :07:05. | |
asks? You can go home, but where are the weapons? The men protest | :07:05. | :07:11. | |
their innocence. A we have been working here for years, they say. I | :07:11. | :07:16. | |
am just earning a living, says this man, an Egyptian. I am not with | :07:16. | :07:20. | |
Gaddafi and I am not with the fighters. | :07:20. | :07:27. | |
The commander who led the battle, led me to some of the spoils. Heavy | :07:27. | :07:32. | |
artillery which was hidden in the palm trees. The martyr's blood | :07:32. | :07:37. | |
isn't shared in vain, he chance. The commander last 12 men here, | :07:37. | :07:42. | |
four from his own brigade. After freeing Tawargha, our martyrs | :07:42. | :07:48. | |
can rest in peace, he said. And the children can sleep easy in their | :07:48. | :07:50. | |
bed. For the rebels, this is a key | :07:50. | :07:54. | |
victory, but they are already planning their next move. They want | :07:54. | :07:58. | |
to press on from here to a strategic junction about 20 | :07:58. | :08:03. | |
minutes' drive a wake. The say if they can capture that they can | :08:03. | :08:09. | |
block the last remaining supply route to Colonel Gaddafi's's home | :08:09. | :08:14. | |
city. Rebel advances have been slow in coming. They have made gains on | :08:14. | :08:19. | |
three fronts in recent days, but they may struggle to hold this new | :08:19. | :08:29. | |
:08:29. | :08:31. | ||
ground and press ahead. A minute's silence has been held in | :08:31. | :08:34. | |
Germany to mark 50 years since the building of the Berlin Wall. Trains | :08:34. | :08:37. | |
and traffic came to a standstill in the capital to commemorate those | :08:37. | :08:41. | |
who died trying to cross the wall, which stood for 28 years, and came | :08:41. | :08:48. | |
to symbolise the Cold War. At the Berlin Chapel of | :08:48. | :08:54. | |
reconciliation, there was a simple ceremony. This building replaced | :08:54. | :08:56. | |
the Church of reconciliation demolished by the East German | :08:56. | :09:01. | |
authorities because it stood in the wake of a wall. Flowers were laid | :09:01. | :09:06. | |
at a memorial to those who were killed trying to flee. 128 people | :09:06. | :09:12. | |
who simply wanted their freedom were shot. He says, based system | :09:12. | :09:17. | |
locked in its own people. It is a bitter memory of this day in which | :09:17. | :09:22. | |
Berlin was in a state of shock. It started on that morning exactly 50 | :09:22. | :09:27. | |
years ago when East German soldiers laid first Bach Choir, and then | :09:27. | :09:32. | |
built at the wall with its death strip, on which guards opened fire | :09:32. | :09:37. | |
on their own citizens trying to leave. Berlin became the focus of | :09:37. | :09:42. | |
the Cold War stand-off. At the ceremony, the country's leaders | :09:42. | :09:46. | |
remembered. Chancellor Angela Merkel grew up and the East and | :09:46. | :09:51. | |
rose to lead her united country when the Wall fell. Germany's | :09:51. | :09:56. | |
President spoke for many. The war worked against its own people, he | :09:56. | :10:01. | |
said. But in the end freedom is unconquerable. Today, virtually | :10:02. | :10:06. | |
none of the Berlin Wall is still standing. This is one of the few | :10:06. | :10:11. | |
remaining sections which wasn't demolished. There is no nostalgia | :10:11. | :10:17. | |
in this city for the brutality and the division which it represented. | :10:17. | :10:20. | |
Now with news of a historic day for England's cricketers and the rest | :10:20. | :10:23. | |
of the sport, it's over to Sean Fletcher. | :10:23. | :10:27. | |
England are officially the best test cricket side in the world. | :10:27. | :10:30. | |
That's after they comprehensively beat India in the third Test, by an | :10:30. | :10:40. | |
:10:40. | :10:43. | ||
innings and 242 runs at Edgbaston. On top of the cricketing world, a | :10:43. | :10:48. | |
decade ago England were officially the worst Test side. How things | :10:48. | :10:54. | |
change. The fans flocked in fancy dress, a blend of the strange and | :10:54. | :10:58. | |
even stranger, but there was only one decent impression of a cricket | :10:58. | :11:03. | |
team. Jimmy Anderson blowing away the Indian batting with three early | :11:03. | :11:09. | |
wickets. When Sachin Tendulkar was run out for 40, India's hopes of | :11:09. | :11:14. | |
any respectability seemed to go with him. Some good hitting gave | :11:14. | :11:18. | |
them something to cheer about, but it still could not dampen England's | :11:18. | :11:23. | |
party, as they sealed their moment of history. A country once a byword | :11:24. | :11:30. | |
for mediocrity, now the best in the business. I am very proud over the | :11:30. | :11:34. | |
way they have played under pressure. This is a big series and you either | :11:34. | :11:38. | |
come and smelling of roses or it does not work out. Thankfully we | :11:38. | :11:43. | |
have been in the ascendancy. England just use a India as the No | :11:44. | :11:48. | |
1, this was a walloping and the fans could only applaud. We have | :11:48. | :11:53. | |
had the bad times, now we have the good times. It England have been | :11:53. | :11:59. | |
awesome, they deserve to be No 1. England have blended skill and | :11:59. | :12:03. | |
spirit, talented individuals playing as a team, whose best could | :12:03. | :12:07. | |
be yet to come. I think what the squad they have | :12:07. | :12:11. | |
got there will dominate Test match cricket for a period. The strength, | :12:11. | :12:16. | |
their attitude and fitness levels, they are hungry. And the | :12:16. | :12:21. | |
professionalism off the field is so impressive. English cricket has | :12:21. | :12:26. | |
seen some lows, but today it scaled the heights. No. 1 in the world and | :12:26. | :12:35. | |
on this form, a richly deserved. Well it's the start of the Premier | :12:35. | :12:38. | |
League season and that means one thing - Match of the Day follows | :12:38. | :12:42. | |
the news, so if you don't want to know the scores, now's the time to | :12:42. | :12:44. | |
leave the room. Newcastle and Arsenal drew 0-0, but the match | :12:44. | :12:47. | |
will be remembered for a second half confrontation, which led to a | :12:47. | :12:51. | |
yellow card for Joey Barton and a red card for Gervinho, on his | :12:51. | :12:53. | |
Arsenal debut. Another debutant, Sebastian Larsson, had a better day. | :12:53. | :12:56. | |
He scored an impressive equaliser for Sunderland in a 1-1 draw at | :12:56. | :12:59. | |
Liverpool. QPR's return to the top flight wasn't a happy one as Bolton | :12:59. | :13:02. | |
won 4-0. Fabrice Muamba scoring the final goal. Elsewhere Wolves beat | :13:02. | :13:04. | |
Blackburn, Fulham drew with Aston Villa, and newly-promoted Norwich | :13:04. | :13:07. | |
fought back from a goal down to draw with Wigan. | :13:07. | :13:09. | |
Motherwell remain top of the Scottish Premier League after | :13:09. | :13:13. | |
scoring a late winner against St Mirren. Celtic are second after | :13:13. | :13:17. | |
their 5-1 victory over Dundee United. And third-placed Rangers | :13:17. | :13:22. | |
benefited from two, second-half penalties at Inverness, to win 2-0. | :13:22. | :13:25. | |
There were also wins for Hearts and Dunfermline. | :13:25. | :13:28. | |
Wales are celebrating a confidence- boosting win over England in | :13:28. | :13:32. | |
Cardiff, as they warm up for next month's Rugby World Cup. England | :13:32. | :13:36. | |
had plenty of possession in the first half, but couldn't capitalise. | :13:36. | :13:41. | |
James Hook made them pay when he scored the only try of the game. | :13:41. | :13:50. | |
Wales won by 19-9 at the Millennium Stadium. | :13:50. | :13:54. | |
Lee Westwood is three shots off the lead in the third round of the | :13:55. | :13:58. | |
USPGA golf in Atlanta. Tributes have been paid to the | :13:58. | :14:00. | |
veteran broadcaster, Robert Robinson, who's died after a long | :14:00. | :14:04. | |
illness at the age of 83. He was probably best known for his role as | :14:04. | :14:07. | |
quizmaster on the shows Ask the Family, Call My Bluff and Brain of | :14:07. | :14:17. | |
:14:17. | :14:18. | ||
Britain. When the BBC wanted someone to | :14:18. | :14:22. | |
presents its first programme devoted to viewers' letters, Robert | :14:22. | :14:27. | |
Robinson was the choice. Witty and deadpan.. Every Monday I will | :14:27. | :14:32. | |
reduce your own letters. I hope they will be highly critical and | :14:32. | :14:36. | |
frightfully disobedience and so helps save television from one its | :14:36. | :14:41. | |
besetting sins which is complacency. He delighted in awkward questions. | :14:41. | :14:46. | |
MS Mansfield, I know you won't think I am rude by saying a visit | :14:46. | :14:50. | |
to you is like a visit to the Tower of London, you are both | :14:50. | :14:54. | |
institutions. What is it like to belong to the public. I guess I | :14:54. | :14:59. | |
feel the same way as the Tower of London seals. The Swan goes into | :14:59. | :15:06. | |
your buttocks. Get up on the couch. He could make fun of himself. He | :15:06. | :15:10. | |
travelled around India starting in the BBC doctor's surgery, getting | :15:10. | :15:16. | |
his injections. On radio, he could give his wit and idiosyncrasy full | :15:16. | :15:22. | |
rein. This is in presenting Radio Four's Today programme in 1973, on | :15:22. | :15:27. | |
the day Britain entered the Common Market? Will the British dates | :15:27. | :15:32. | |
before Frenchman forcing butter on the public at 40 bob a time. | :15:32. | :15:37. | |
Germans pressing eight faults sausage rings through the letter | :15:37. | :15:43. | |
boxes of Anglo's and Saxons. Not really, the little outside world or | :15:43. | :15:47. | |
little evidence of the Sunday bacon and eggs that Dutch cheese will be | :15:47. | :15:52. | |
served in Britain for breakfast. But his style of programme-making | :15:52. | :15:57. | |
went out of fashion and was accused of sneering and was left behind as | :15:57. | :16:02. | |
television became more informal and less respectful. He turned to | :16:02. | :16:06. | |
present English shows, Brain of Britain, Ask the Family, Call My | :16:06. | :16:10. | |
Bluff. People think all of those names is | :16:10. | :16:17. | |
the start of the brain, it is not, that is. He was a polite and genial | :16:17. | :16:22. |
