:00:24. > :00:27.security officials are acquitted. A British aid worker and three of her

:00:27. > :00:35.colleagues kidnapped in Afghanistan are rescued in a pre-dawn raid by

:01:06. > :01:08.the festivities with a day at the Good evening to you. The former

:01:08. > :01:11.Egyptian president, Hosni Mubarak, has been sentenced to life in

:01:11. > :01:16.prison over the killing proof testers during the uprising that

:01:16. > :01:21.forced him from power last year. The 84-year-old remained silent as

:01:21. > :01:23.the verdict was read, but tens of thousands of Egyptians are now

:01:23. > :01:29.gathered in Tahrir Square in central care owe to protest

:01:29. > :01:35.following the acquittal of the former President's two sons and six

:01:35. > :01:39.senior officials. Rupert Wingfield- Hayes reports. Today, all of Egypt

:01:39. > :01:45.has been waiting for and the one many here thought would never come.

:01:45. > :01:50.The man who ruled over this country for 30 years is wheeled into court

:01:50. > :01:55.to hear his fate. Outside the families of some of those killed in

:01:55. > :02:05.last year's protests wait for news. Hoping for justice, but fearful of

:02:05. > :02:07.

:02:07. > :02:17.disappointment. As the judge begins to read the verdict, Mubarak sits

:02:17. > :02:22.grim faced behind his dark glasses. Beside him in the cage are his sons.

:02:22. > :02:25.The court has decreed nrbgts presence of all the accused, to

:02:25. > :02:32.punish Muhmmad Hosni El Sayyid Mubarak with life imprisonment for

:02:32. > :02:37.the charges leveled against him of committing pre-mediated crimes.

:02:37. > :02:41.can see, they have just heard the news, Mubarak has been given a life

:02:41. > :02:48.sentence. Here outside the court is jubilation from the families of the

:02:48. > :02:58.people who were killed in last year's protests. Do you feel now

:02:58. > :03:00.

:03:00. > :03:07.you have justice for your son? I have a... He slept. Rest. He's

:03:07. > :03:12.very happy. Inside the court house there is a dramatic change of mood.

:03:12. > :03:21.Mubarak's two sons have been found not guilty. The lawyers and

:03:21. > :03:26.families of their protesters react with outrage. Outside the court the

:03:26. > :03:30.mood has changed too. Some of the young men now try to storm the

:03:30. > :03:35.police lines. TRANSLATION: Mubarak, his sons, we

:03:35. > :03:39.will kill them, I swear. I'm saying this is a message to the military

:03:39. > :03:47.council and the dog Mubarak. the people here, who lost children

:03:47. > :03:52.in the protests, only death for Mubarak and his sons will be enough.

:03:52. > :03:57.This afternoon, the 84-year-old, ex-president, was driven off to

:03:57. > :04:01.start a 25 year prison sentence. For many Egyptians, justice has

:04:01. > :04:09.been done. As we said, thousands of people have been gathering in

:04:09. > :04:13.Tahrir Square. Rupert is there for us now with more. Rupert. We have

:04:13. > :04:18.seen thousands and thousands of people in the square behind me this

:04:18. > :04:22.afternoon and into this evening. There is a great deal of anger here

:04:22. > :04:25.in Tahrir Square at the fact that, in particular, that the top

:04:25. > :04:29.security officials, from the Mubarak regime, have been let off.

:04:29. > :04:33.Have been allowed to go free after this trial. Also, many people

:04:33. > :04:38.wanting to see a much tougher sentence, perhaps death sentence

:04:38. > :04:42.for President Mubarak. There is a dse of electioneering going on here.

:04:42. > :04:44.A lot of people out here are supporters of the Muslim

:04:44. > :04:49.Brotherhood. Their presidential candidate was down here earlier. He

:04:49. > :04:52.said if he was elected he will order a re-trial. The Muslim

:04:52. > :04:54.Brotherhood wants to use this verdict today to drum up support

:04:54. > :05:00.for its candidate in the presidential election, which is

:05:00. > :05:03.just two weeks' away. Thank you. A British aid worker, freed after

:05:03. > :05:07.being taken hostage in Afghanistan, has thanked all of those involved

:05:07. > :05:11.in her rescue. Helen Johnston, and three colleagues, who work for a

:05:11. > :05:15.Swiss charity, were freed in a pre- dawn raid. They had been held

:05:15. > :05:19.captive for 12 days. Five kidnappers were killed in the

:05:19. > :05:25.rescue by American and British forces in Badakhshan province. This

:05:25. > :05:29.report from Quentin Sommerville. After 12 days in captivity, Helen

:05:29. > :05:33.Johnston returns to Kabul and freedom. The British deputy

:05:33. > :05:37.ambassador welcomed her back. The medical worker was kidnapped in

:05:37. > :05:40.eastern Afghanistan last monthment she had been working for a Swiss

:05:40. > :05:45.charity, Medair, in alleviating malnutrition in this poor and

:05:45. > :05:49.remote part of the country. Also freed were Kenyan medic, Moragwa

:05:50. > :05:54.Oirere, and two Afghan colleagues. David Cameron personally authorised

:05:54. > :05:58.the rescue mission. All five kidnappers were killed. I think the

:05:58. > :06:03.most important message is to terrorists around the world. They

:06:03. > :06:09.should know, if they take British citizens as hostage, we do not pay

:06:09. > :06:19.ransoms. We do not trade prisoners. They can expect a swift and brutal

:06:19. > :06:26.

:06:26. > :06:30.end. The Johnston family said in a Badakhshan, in the east of the

:06:30. > :06:35.country, is hostile terrain. The kidnappers were armed to the teeth.

:06:35. > :06:39.They demanded �7 million ransom, and that all foreign aid workers

:06:39. > :06:44.leave the province. British troops marched in, undercover of darkness.

:06:44. > :06:49.They had to cover the ground rapidly. They had to get on to the

:06:49. > :06:53.target undiscovered. The terrain was incredibly difficult terrain.

:06:54. > :06:58.Very rocky, with scrub, in a deep gully. It was about the most

:06:58. > :07:02.testing target you could imagine. Military commanders here in Kabul

:07:02. > :07:06.knew it was a risk operation. Previous attempts to release

:07:06. > :07:10.British hostages had ended in failure. A contractor in Nigeria

:07:10. > :07:17.was killed by his captors before British special force cos reach him.

:07:17. > :07:21.Here in Afghanistan, Linda Norgrove died when her rescue attempt went

:07:21. > :07:26.wrong. The threat to the workers was so great and ind creasing it

:07:26. > :07:31.was thought there was little aterntive but to go-ahead with the

:07:31. > :07:34.operation. Her kidnappers had threatened to start killing,

:07:34. > :07:40.triggering the rescue operation. Helen Johnston is being cared for

:07:40. > :07:42.now at the British Embassy. A British soldier has been killed in

:07:42. > :07:45.southern Afghanistan. The serviceman, serving with 1st

:07:45. > :07:49.Battalion, The Royal Welsh, was part of a foot patrol that came

:07:49. > :07:53.under attack from small arms fire in the Nahr-e-Saraj district of

:07:53. > :07:57.Helmand province. His family have been informed. In Lebanon, at least

:07:57. > :08:02.seven people have been killed in Tripoli, in clashes linked to

:08:02. > :08:06.unrest across the boreder in Syria. Supporters and opponents of

:08:06. > :08:09.President Bashar al-Assad clashed with rocket-propelled grenades on

:08:09. > :08:15.Saturday evening. Tension in the northern port city has mounted

:08:15. > :08:20.since Syria's uprising began. Four days of celebrations are officially

:08:20. > :08:22.underway to mark the Queen's Diamond Jubilee. Gun salutes echoed

:08:22. > :08:27.across London, Edinburgh, Cardiff and Belfast. The Queen attended

:08:27. > :08:31.Derby Day at Epsom, one of the highlights of the racing calendar.

:08:31. > :08:37.Nicholas Witchell watched as Her Majesty presented the winning

:08:37. > :08:41.prizes in the renamed Diamond Jubilee Coronation Cup A Derby Day

:08:41. > :08:47.with a difference. An event which is always one of the favourite

:08:47. > :08:50.moments of the Queen's year, acting this year as the launch pad for the

:08:50. > :08:54.Diamond Jubilee weekend. She was driven down the course from

:08:54. > :08:58.Tattenham Corner, a journey she's made in virtually every one of the

:08:58. > :09:02.60 years of her reign. This was Derby Day in 1953. It was a couple

:09:02. > :09:11.of days after the core nation. It was also the year that the Queen

:09:11. > :09:15.came closest to owning a Derby winner. Her horse finished second.

:09:15. > :09:21.Now, in the Diamond Jubilee year of her reign, the crowds were there to

:09:21. > :09:25.show their gratitude. She just brings so much into our country, I

:09:25. > :09:30.say. A time to enjoy and celebrate being British. Dress code for the

:09:30. > :09:36.Derby is a matter for the individual. In the Royal enclosure

:09:36. > :09:41.it's formal. For sopranos singing the National Anthem it's probably

:09:41. > :09:46.rather more relaxed. The Queen went off to look at the horses. Her

:09:46. > :09:50.interest in blood stock needs no underlining here. The Derby gives

:09:50. > :09:55.her the chance to inspect some of the finest. So to the big race

:09:55. > :10:00.itself. This year, with a red hot favourite, Camelot. As they came

:10:00. > :10:05.into the final furlongs of the Derby, it was that favourite who

:10:05. > :10:13.came storming through. COMMENTATOR: Camelot takes the lead

:10:13. > :10:17.from Astrology. He starts to pull away. The first father/son trainer

:10:17. > :10:22.jockey combination to win the Derby. A bad day for the bookies, a

:10:22. > :10:31.thrilling start to the Jubilee. So the Derby has been run and the

:10:31. > :10:37.Diamond Jubilee weekend is underway. Ahead, three more days of Jubilee

:10:37. > :10:41.celebrations. Well, the highlight, I guess, for many will be the 1,000

:10:41. > :10:46.boat flotilla on the River Thames. Despite the damp weather, thousands

:10:46. > :10:50.of spectators are expected. Crews are putting the finishing touches

:10:50. > :10:56.to their vessels. This was the moment that marked the anniversary

:10:56. > :10:59.of the Queen's core nation. A 41- gun Royal Salute at the Tower of

:10:59. > :11:03.London which coincided with gun salutes fired from official points

:11:03. > :11:08.from around the country. On the water below, boats taking part in

:11:08. > :11:12.the pageant had been putting the final touches to their vessels

:11:12. > :11:16.before heading off ready for the start of tomorrow's flotilla.

:11:16. > :11:19.Specialist police have been carrying out searches of London's

:11:19. > :11:26.bridges with no modern precedent for such a huge occasion on the

:11:26. > :11:31.river, security is a challenging task. You can sense the interest

:11:31. > :11:36.and excitement building here at the Thames. Nothing on the scale of

:11:36. > :11:41.tomorrow's pageant has been seen for 350 years. The sheer number of

:11:41. > :11:47.vessels and people taking part. The Thames will become a floating stage

:11:47. > :11:52.and a sight to behold. Some of the boats which haven't been able to

:11:52. > :11:57.join the flotilla are moored in St Katherine's Dock where people have

:11:57. > :12:00.been getting into the festive spirit. Some were so keen to be

:12:00. > :12:05.here that they reserved well in advance. I can't wait. We booked

:12:05. > :12:09.this over a year ago. We sailed down over the last three days. The

:12:09. > :12:14.whole place is buzzing. We booked the mooring two years ago. We have

:12:14. > :12:19.come from Norwich. We came down on Thursday. Over a period of three

:12:19. > :12:23.days. They have been getting into the Jubilee mood in Perth, which is

:12:23. > :12:31.hosting one of the biggest celebrations in Scotland. They

:12:31. > :12:38.began this morning with a parade of 1,000 pipers. In Wales, soldiers

:12:39. > :12:44.marched from Cardiff Castle through the city. There was a 21-gun salute

:12:44. > :12:54.at Hillsborough Fort in Northern Ireland. While many parts of the

:12:54. > :12:56.

:12:56. > :12:59.country will be celebrating all eyes will be on the Thames tomorrow.

:12:59. > :13:03.Time for the sport with Karthi Gnanasegaram at the BBC Sports

:13:03. > :13:07.Centre. Thank you very much. It is two wins outs of two at the start

:13:07. > :13:10.of Roy Hodgson's reign as England manager. His is side completed

:13:10. > :13:14.their preparation force the 2012 European Championship with victory

:13:14. > :13:18.over Belgium. With nine days to go before their first game of the

:13:18. > :13:27.tournament against France in Donetsk, England have yet more

:13:27. > :13:32.injury concerns. Bell begans are famous for their love of chips.

:13:32. > :13:36.Their football team is meant to be tasting as well. For England they

:13:36. > :13:40.had to win, but not at any cost. Roy Hodgson couldn't afford for

:13:41. > :13:48.England's midfield to be holed further by injury. England

:13:48. > :13:54.certainly stuttered at the start. Cahill was fouled by Hart was slow.

:13:54. > :14:00.Cahill leaving for an X-ray on his jaw. At last, a moment of urgency.

:14:00. > :14:07.Danny Welbeck combining with Gerard to steal the ball. This time, an an

:14:07. > :14:12.Englishman showing the Belgians how to chip. Welbeck finishing with

:14:12. > :14:19.relish. In the second-half, England reverted to the old sin of

:14:19. > :14:29.sloppiness, giving the ball away again and again, and again. Belgium

:14:29. > :14:30.

:14:30. > :14:35.couldn't capitalise. The right back came closest. England were sparking

:14:35. > :14:40.more upfront. Walsh -- Walcott and Defoe pinged the post at the other

:14:40. > :14:42.end. France will be similar to tonight. A tough test for us. I

:14:43. > :14:46.think a performance like tonight will be needed if not a little bit

:14:46. > :14:55.better. Roy Hodgson is a month into the job. The upside that he has

:14:55. > :14:59.secured two wins in two games. There are familiar frailties to

:14:59. > :15:05.England. The euros begin in nine days' time. An inexperienced

:15:05. > :15:09.Northern Ireland suffered a 6-0 thrashing from a full-strength

:15:09. > :15:13.Netherlands side. The pick of the six coming from Wesley Sneijder.

:15:13. > :15:18.There were two goals each for Robin Van Persie and Ibrahim Afellai with

:15:19. > :15:24.Ron Vlaar completing the drubbing. Andy Murray booked his place in the

:15:24. > :15:30.last 16 of the French Open. With a straight-sets victory over Santiago

:15:30. > :15:36.Giraldo. Murray had recovered from his back spasm problem to cruise

:15:36. > :15:39.past the world No 50. He faces Richard Gasquet next. Aston Villa
