:00:16. > :00:19.Two braish soldiers are among -- British soldiers are among six dead

:00:19. > :00:24.in Afghanistan. The soldiers from 3rd Battalion The Yorkshire

:00:25. > :00:27.Regiment died at the hands of men in Afghan Police uniform. As Duke

:00:27. > :00:32.and Duchess of Cambridge arrive in the Solomon Islands, palace lawyers

:00:32. > :00:36.prepare to go to court in Paris to make a criminal complaint over the

:00:36. > :00:44.topless photos. Tributes are paid to a rising rugby star who died

:00:44. > :00:49.with his father and his brother in a farm accident in Northern Ireland.

:00:49. > :00:59.And a jubilant return for Andy Murray as the new Grand Slam

:00:59. > :01:09.

:01:09. > :01:14.champion is welcomed home to Good evening. Two British soldiers

:01:14. > :01:18.killed at a checkpoint in Helmand were shot by a man in Afghan Police

:01:18. > :01:21.uniform, apparently pretending to be injured. The troops were from

:01:21. > :01:25.3rd Battalion The Yorkshire Regiment. Another incident also

:01:25. > :01:30.involving attackers in Afghan Police uniform killed four American

:01:30. > :01:34.soldiers this weekend. It means more than 50 coalition troops have

:01:34. > :01:39.now been killed in insider attacks this year.

:01:39. > :01:43.Two more names will now be added to this memorial that stands in

:01:43. > :01:47.Helmand. Two more members of three Yorks who have lost their lives

:01:47. > :01:50.trying to help secure a country far from home. Their part of

:01:50. > :01:55.Afghanistan is now the most dangerous. Nahr-e Saraj, where one

:01:55. > :02:00.in ten of all insurgent attacks take place. The soldiers were

:02:01. > :02:04.working with members of the Afghan local police like these. Out on a

:02:04. > :02:10.patrol one of the policemen said he was injured. The British soldiers

:02:10. > :02:14.came to help him. He then opened fire. There are reports that the

:02:14. > :02:18.attacker was also mentally ill. In a separate incident, four American

:02:18. > :02:24.soldiers were killed by another rogue policeman. There's been a

:02:24. > :02:29.dramatic rise in so-called green- on-blue killings - Afghans in

:02:29. > :02:36.uniform targeting NATO soldiers. In 2007 just two NATO troops as a

:02:36. > :02:40.result of these attacks. By 2011, that figured jumped to 35. This

:02:40. > :02:48.year, NATO has lost 51 troops, seven of them British. So what is

:02:48. > :02:52.the motive for these attacks? have about 25% insurgency. Many

:02:52. > :02:56.others, we simply don't know because they have been killed or

:02:56. > :03:01.they escape after they did this attack. Here at NATO headquarters,

:03:01. > :03:06.there is increasing concern about the number of insider attacks. Not

:03:06. > :03:11.just because of its impact on trust between NATO soldiers and their

:03:11. > :03:15.Afghan partners, but also its effect on support back home. Just

:03:15. > :03:19.last week the Defence Secretary raised his concerns about these

:03:19. > :03:27.attacks with President Karzai. Philip Hammond said he was

:03:27. > :03:31.reassured that the problem was being addressed. There's the

:03:31. > :03:35.promise of tougher vetting and better intelligence. With 7,000 raw

:03:35. > :03:41.recruits passing out each month, and that is just for the Army, it

:03:41. > :03:45.is a massive challenge. Thank you. They are supposed to be working

:03:45. > :03:50.side by side. Even before these latest killings, the head of the

:03:50. > :03:55.Afghan Army admitted these attacks are damaging relations. We live

:03:55. > :04:04.together, we fight together. We say we are partners, shoulder-to-

:04:04. > :04:10.shoulder. If anybody is hurting you, and somebody uses you, of course

:04:10. > :04:17.it's embarrassing for me. Tonight NATO had to apologise when nine

:04:17. > :04:23.women were killed as they collected firewood.Ed a to that the assault

:04:23. > :04:29.on Camp Bastion which left two US Marines killed, you get a sense of

:04:29. > :04:33.what is facing NATO. Just two years before most of their troops leave.

:04:33. > :04:37.The Ministry of Defence has named a soldier who was killed in

:04:37. > :04:42.Afghanistan on Friday. 32-year-old Lance Corporal Duane Groom served

:04:42. > :04:48.with the 1st Battalion Grenadier Guards. He was killed in an

:04:48. > :04:52.explosion in Helmand province. Lawyers for Duke and Duchess of

:04:52. > :04:56.Cambridge will make a criminal complaint to prosecutors tomorrow

:04:56. > :05:01.over topless photos taken of the Duchess. A St James's Palace

:05:01. > :05:05.spokesman said damages would be sought as well as an injunction

:05:05. > :05:09.against further publication. The couple are now on tour in the

:05:09. > :05:13.Solomon Islands. This report contains flash photography.

:05:13. > :05:16.Keep smiling and carry on - that's very much the motto of this tour

:05:16. > :05:19.now and when you receive a welcome as warm as the one William and Kate

:05:19. > :05:25.were give no-one the Solomon Islands, it would be hard not to

:05:25. > :05:28.smile. The furry of Friday, when they

:05:28. > :05:32.first saw the paparazzi photographs has softened, although not their

:05:32. > :05:36.determination to hold fully to account the French magazine which

:05:36. > :05:41.published them. William and Kate travelled from the airport into the

:05:41. > :05:45.centre of the main town, Honiara n a week fashioned to look like a

:05:46. > :05:51.canoe. Thousands of islanders came out to

:05:51. > :05:55.greet them. Perhaps this was just what the couple needed - warmth and

:05:55. > :06:01.enthusiasm. Half a world away, literally, from the cynicism of

:06:01. > :06:04.editors in Europe. Behind the scenes, officials are

:06:04. > :06:09.very focused ond identifying the photographer who took the pictures

:06:09. > :06:14.and to pursue the legal action in France. In public, the couple are

:06:14. > :06:17.very focused on making this visit a success.

:06:17. > :06:21.They attended a service of thanksgiving for the Diamond

:06:21. > :06:26.Jubilee of the Queen, who is the Solomon Islands' head of state.

:06:26. > :06:33.Later, at an open-air dinner, William tried to local dialect, to

:06:33. > :06:37.thank the Solomon Islands for being such a place of tranquillity.

:06:38. > :06:43.The message of the day has been very clear - William and Kate are

:06:43. > :06:46.as one in wanting to seek the maximum legal redress against the

:06:46. > :06:50.paparazzi photographer and the French magazine. That could be a

:06:50. > :06:55.civil or a criminal remedy. Meanwhile, tomorrow, lawyers for

:06:55. > :07:00.the couple will seek an injunction in a Paris court to prevent any

:07:00. > :07:06.further publication of the pictures in France.

:07:06. > :07:10.Details of the new exam to GCSEs in England will be unveiled tomorrow.

:07:10. > :07:14.The new single qualification will be introduced in 2015w the first

:07:14. > :07:17.students sitting it in 2017. There have been disagreements within the

:07:17. > :07:21.coalition over the planned changes. Let's join our political

:07:21. > :07:25.correspondent, who is in Westminster. So, will it be a

:07:25. > :07:30.United Front when these details are unveiled tomorrow? It will. Both

:07:30. > :07:34.men will be there, Nick Clegg and Michael Gove, side by side, to

:07:34. > :07:39.unveil a landmark change to the way that 16 year olds are assessed in

:07:39. > :07:43.schools. GCSEs are going. With it coursework assessment - in its

:07:43. > :07:47.place comes something similar to the old O-level, with the emphasis

:07:47. > :07:51.on a single exam at the end of the year. Both sides of the coalition

:07:51. > :07:56.hope this will mean a more rigorous regime. In particular for the

:07:56. > :08:01.Conservatives a tougher regime. For Nick Clegg, what has he got? It

:08:01. > :08:06.does not come in until 2015. For them, what they have got from this

:08:06. > :08:12.deal is an insistence that there will not be a marginallisation of

:08:12. > :08:16.children. Some wanted a two-tier system, where the more able set one

:08:16. > :08:21.exam, the less able sat another. That will not happen. Nick Clegg

:08:21. > :08:25.can go to his conference and say, we can ensure some children will

:08:25. > :08:29.not be marginallised. The Conservatives hope it will mean a

:08:29. > :08:34.return to an exam gold standard. Thank you. Tributes have been paid

:08:34. > :08:39.to a 22-year-old star of the Ulster Rugby Club, who died in an accident

:08:39. > :08:43.on his family farm in County Down. Nevin Spence, aiz father and

:08:43. > :08:48.brother all fell into a slurry tank at their home near Hillsborough.

:08:48. > :08:53.The family farm where a father and his two sons died in a tragic

:08:53. > :08:58.accident. They were found in a slurry tank. Among the dead was one

:08:58. > :09:08.of the rising stars of Irish rugby, Nevin Spence. The 22-year-old

:09:08. > :09:11.

:09:11. > :09:14.played more than 40 times for Ulster. He was tipped as a future

:09:14. > :09:18.Irish international. Yesterday evening he died, along with his

:09:18. > :09:23.father, Noel, and his brother, Graham at their family farm 15

:09:23. > :09:28.miles from Belfast. The emergency services tried to rescue them from

:09:28. > :09:32.the slurry pit, but it was too late. Because of the size of the pit - it

:09:32. > :09:36.was not that deep and it would appear, as would be the case

:09:36. > :09:41.normally, in incidents such as this, that the fumes overcame the people

:09:41. > :09:47.who got into it very, very quickly. At the home of Ulster rugby, fans

:09:47. > :09:50.paid their respects, including old school friends. It feels like it's

:09:50. > :09:57.some strange, horrible joke and someone will turn around and say,

:09:57. > :10:01.it's a mistake, it's not Nevin, it's... I cannot believe it! Ulster

:10:01. > :10:05.rugby is in mourning. He was born in Ulster. He came through school

:10:05. > :10:08.in Ulster. He played rugby for Ulster. All he wanted to do for the

:10:09. > :10:13.remainder of his career was stay here, win trophies and be

:10:13. > :10:19.successful with Ulster. He was part of the Ulster squad which reached

:10:19. > :10:24.the final of the European Heineken Cup last season. Rugby players

:10:24. > :10:29.across the world have paid tribute to Nevin Spence. Here his Ulster

:10:29. > :10:32.team-mates described him as a wonderful player and a wonderful

:10:33. > :10:40.person. This evening, supporters are gathering to remember the young

:10:40. > :10:45.rugby player and his family. Families of the 96 Liverpool fans

:10:45. > :10:47.killed in the Hillsborough disaster say they will seek new inquests.

:10:48. > :10:51.They met following this week's report which unveiled the full

:10:51. > :10:57.extent of the cover-up. The relatives want the original

:10:57. > :11:01.verdicts of accidental death overturned. In Lebanon, the leader

:11:01. > :11:08.of Hezbollah has called for nationwide protests over the US-

:11:08. > :11:14.produced amateur film which has caused uproar because of its

:11:14. > :11:23.portrayal of the Prophet Mohammed. Pope Benedict prayed for Middle

:11:23. > :11:27.Eastern leaders to work for Around one-third of Lebanese are

:11:27. > :11:33.Christians. It felt as if most of them were packing into Beirut for

:11:33. > :11:35.the papal mass. This was a celebration. Lebanon has

:11:35. > :11:40.the region's strongest Christian population.

:11:40. > :11:45.These are hard times for Christians across the Middle East, as

:11:45. > :11:52.political Islam changes the landscape. In Lebanon, we think we

:11:52. > :11:58.are very much more protected because we lived in the war and now

:11:58. > :12:04.it's only peace. We only think of peace. The mass was a relaxed event,

:12:04. > :12:12.at a moment of great tension in the region. Pope Benedict appealed for

:12:12. > :12:15.peace and reconciliation and for an end to the war in Syria. "I call on

:12:15. > :12:20.the international community, especially the Arab countries, as

:12:20. > :12:26.brothers, to find a viable solution that respects, dignity, rights and

:12:26. > :12:29.religion." Not just Christians, Lebanese of

:12:30. > :12:37.all religions fear violence spilling over the border. They live

:12:37. > :12:40.on the same sectarian fault lines as their neighbours. Lebanon is a

:12:40. > :12:45.small, country with a history of getting caught newspaper the storms

:12:45. > :12:49.that rage through the Middle East. What it does have though is a

:12:50. > :12:56.collective memory of the horrors of sectarian civil war. At the moment,

:12:56. > :13:00.that might be its best insurance policy. But the Syrian war has

:13:00. > :13:04.sharpened sectarian tensions here. This was fighting in Tripoli,

:13:04. > :13:11.northern Lebanon, at the end of August. There's also rage about the

:13:11. > :13:17.US-made film that insults the Prophet Mohammed. American symbols

:13:17. > :13:21.have already been targeted. On TV tonight, Hassan Nasrallah t leader

:13:21. > :13:29.of Hezbollah said the film tried to divide Christians and Muslims and

:13:29. > :13:34.told his people to respond with anger on their faces and fists.

:13:34. > :13:41.He spoke just after the Pope left Lebanon. Pope Benedict made

:13:41. > :13:46.Christians feel stronger. Most Lebanese of all faiths know

:13:46. > :13:52.sectarian violence here is possible and want to avoid it.

:13:53. > :14:00.This is Beirut from the road to Syria, less than an hour away - too

:14:00. > :14:07.close for comfort. Andy Murray has been given a hero's welcome in his

:14:07. > :14:16.home town of dun blame after his -- Dunblane after his success.

:14:16. > :14:21.Thousands of people lined the Today was a rare chance to get up

:14:21. > :14:25.close and personal. Andy Murray returned home to Dunblane an

:14:25. > :14:29.Olympic gold and silver medallist and Britain's first Grand Slam

:14:29. > :14:34.champion for 76 years. I have never really seen him smile before. It

:14:34. > :14:38.was nice to see he was smiling when he came past. This opportunity for

:14:38. > :14:42.those who know Andy Murray best, his friends and neighbours, to

:14:42. > :14:47.congratulate him in person. He spent five hours walking through

:14:47. > :14:53.Dunblane, signing thousands of autographs. The support I have had

:14:53. > :14:56.from here at all times, in tough moments of my career has been the

:14:56. > :15:02.same. Everyone kept believing in me. That was important. Andy Murray

:15:02. > :15:05.ended his parade with where his tennis career began, at Dunblane

:15:05. > :15:11.sports club, a chance to say thank you and perhaps inspire a new

:15:11. > :15:16.generation. Well, now to today's sporting

:15:16. > :15:20.action, let's join Olly. Hello. Many thanks. Bradley Wiggins was

:15:20. > :15:26.the toast of British cycling over the summer, but after his Tour de

:15:26. > :15:29.France and Olympictry trum ofs, Jonathan Tiernan-Locke has --

:15:29. > :15:33.Olympic triumph ofs, Jonathan Tiernan-Locke has won. For the

:15:34. > :15:40.thousands who turned out for the finish in Surrey, there was the

:15:40. > :15:42.bonus of Mark Cavendish winning the final stage as well. An

:15:42. > :15:46.unforgettable summer of sport may be over, but when it comes to

:15:46. > :15:52.cycling there's no end to the enthusiasm. This could have been

:15:52. > :15:56.the Alps rather than the Surrey hills, such as the euphoria. This

:15:56. > :15:59.is the Tour of Britain, not France. More evidence that this is now a

:15:59. > :16:04.cycling nation. Well, it is immensely satisfying. When we

:16:04. > :16:10.started out in this sport, you were lucky to get a man and his dog out.

:16:10. > :16:15.To see the number of people we get now is incredible. Once under way a

:16:15. > :16:19.break-away group built an early lead. The chasing pack was not

:16:20. > :16:23.helped by hold-ups, the leaders were reeled in. Here at the

:16:23. > :16:27.finishing line on Guildford's high street, once again huge support.

:16:27. > :16:31.More than one million supporters have seen the biggest ever Tour of

:16:31. > :16:35.Britain this week - proof that cycling is no longer a minority

:16:35. > :16:40.sport. Back on the course, the contest opened up. This final stage

:16:40. > :16:43.borrowed some of the routes used in the Olympic road race. Mark

:16:43. > :16:47.Cavendish could not manage gold that day. The sprint specialist

:16:47. > :16:52.doing what he does best and claiming a third stage win of the

:16:52. > :16:55.week. On top of that, overnight leader, Jonathan Tiernan-Locke tier,

:16:55. > :16:58.finished high enough to become the win ore the overall event.

:16:58. > :17:03.Wfrpblgts the tour and the Olympics and -- With the tour and the

:17:03. > :17:07.Olympics and all of that, it is amazing, to be able to contribute

:17:07. > :17:11.to that, it is great to be a part of. The sport has never known a

:17:11. > :17:19.year like this. With the World Championships to come, British's

:17:19. > :17:22.cycle of success could continue. There was one game in the Barclays

:17:22. > :17:27.Premier League today. Match Of The Day will have news of Reading

:17:27. > :17:30.gpbslt Tottenham. If you don't want to -- Reading against Tottenham.

:17:30. > :17:35.Tottenham have their first win of the season. They have moved up into

:17:35. > :17:41.the top half of the table. Jermain Defoe scored twice in their 3-1

:17:41. > :17:44.victory at the Madejski Stadium. Gareth Bale scored also for Spurs.

:17:44. > :17:49.African runners dominated the Great North Run today. Wilson Kipsang won

:17:49. > :17:54.the men's race. He was one of four Kenyans in the top five. He won the
