:00:24. > :00:25.for lewd comments he made about women in a video
:00:26. > :00:31.Mr Trump talked about using his celebrity status to grope women
:00:32. > :00:36.Those comments have been strongly condemned by senior
:00:37. > :00:47.Donald Trump called it "locker room banter".
:00:48. > :00:49.Two men are on a bus, their microphones are switched
:00:50. > :00:51.on but they don't know they are being recorded.
:00:52. > :01:32.They are about to meet the female star of a Hollywood soap opera.
:01:33. > :01:35.In her campaign ads, Hillary Clinton has often attacked
:01:36. > :01:41.A person who is flat chested is very hard to be a ten.
:01:42. > :01:44.In response to this latest video she tweeted, "This is horrific,
:01:45. > :01:47.we cannot allow this man to become president."
:01:48. > :01:50.A few hours later Donald Trump issued this apology.
:01:51. > :01:54.I have never said I am a perfect person, nor pretended to be someone
:01:55. > :01:58.I have said and done things I regret and the words released today on this
:01:59. > :02:02.more than a decade old video are one of them.
:02:03. > :02:07.Anyone who knows me knows that these words do not reflect who I am.
:02:08. > :02:11.I said it, I was wrong and I apologise.
:02:12. > :02:15.Let's be honest, we are living in the real world, this is nothing
:02:16. > :02:18.more than a distraction from the important issues
:02:19. > :02:23.The backlash against Trump from his own party is growing.
:02:24. > :02:26.It is sad, really, but I can't endorse Donald Trump for President
:02:27. > :02:29.after those comments and the way he said them.
:02:30. > :02:32.There is no way I'm voting for Hillary Clinton,
:02:33. > :02:35.but I can no longer endorse Donald Trump for president,
:02:36. > :02:39.The most senior elected Republican official, Paul Ryan,
:02:40. > :02:42.said he was sickened by what he had heard.
:02:43. > :02:45.Trump has cancelled his engagements for today, saying he is preparing
:02:46. > :02:49.for tomorrow's second televised debate with Hillary Clinton.
:02:50. > :02:52.He says he wants to discuss her husband's abuse of women and how

:02:57. > :03:02.Hurricane Matthew, which struck Haiti killing nearly 900 people,
:03:03. > :03:04.is now weakening as it moves along the eastern edge
:03:05. > :03:07.of the United States. The storm triggered mass evacuations
:03:08. > :03:11.on the Atlantic coast but the damage is nowhere near as bad as that
:03:12. > :03:14.which hit Haiti on Tuesday, leaving more than 60,000
:03:15. > :03:26.For almost a week now, Matthew has been an unwanted guest,

:03:35. > :03:41.In South Carolina, people have battened down the hatches,
:03:42. > :03:45.bracing themselves for what Matthew will bring.
:03:46. > :03:47.We understand the situation that is before us,
:03:48. > :03:53.This is the last time you will see me before
:03:54. > :03:56.we are actually in storm mode, so please evacuate,
:03:57. > :04:05.State officials are going door-to-door, advising
:04:06. > :04:20.I can rebuild the motel, I have insurance, but I can't
:04:21. > :04:22.I'm going 70 miles inland - better be safe than sorry.
:04:23. > :04:25.A choice to leave that so many in Haiti didn't have.
:04:26. > :04:28.Matthew hit the island on Tuesday, but the United Nations has warned,
:04:29. > :04:30.it could take several days for the full extent
:04:31. > :04:44.Many hundreds have lost their lives and those who are left have been
:04:45. > :04:51.left with nothing. TRANSLATION: The wind took the roof and it was
:04:52. > :04:55.completely gone. This town, home to 30,000, has been cut off for days.
:04:56. > :05:04.Much-needed aid has started to arrive. The closer we got to Port O
:05:05. > :05:09.Prince it was complete devastation, it was flattened. Haiti was already
:05:10. > :05:14.one of the world's poorest countries, hit hard by the
:05:15. > :05:19.earthquake in 2010 and in the grip of a cholera epidemic. But the
:05:20. > :05:22.damage hurricane Matthew has brought means it will take the country years
:05:23. > :05:25.to recover from this latest disaster.
:05:26. > :05:27.Supporters of the Labour Leader Jeremy Corbyn today
:05:28. > :05:29.have been defending him over his cabinet reshuffle.
:05:30. > :05:32.Mr Corbyn's been criticised for failing to act constructively
:05:33. > :05:36.in talks about giving MPs a greater say on who sits on the front bench.
:05:37. > :05:37.Straight now to Westminster and our Correspondent
:05:38. > :05:51.Another day, another Labour row? On the face of it this is about who is
:05:52. > :05:56.in the shadow cabinet because the chair of the Parliamentary Labour
:05:57. > :06:00.Party says he was having conversations with Jeremy Corbyn
:06:01. > :06:04.about having these elections and he was not informed at the time that
:06:05. > :06:08.Jeremy Corbyn was planning to select people himself. But the reality is
:06:09. > :06:13.it is a row about who leads the Labour Party and the direction it is
:06:14. > :06:17.going in. There are those who think this reshuffle titles dashed Titans
:06:18. > :06:25.Jeremy Corbyn's grip on the Labour Party. The shadow Foreign Secretary
:06:26. > :06:30.has said Labour MPs cannot have it both ways. They cannot complain of
:06:31. > :06:38.him not to link people and being seen as too weak. Leaders have to
:06:39. > :06:40.lead. Whenever there is a reshuffle, there will be disappointment.
:06:41. > :06:43.In the end, Jeremy has decided that he needs to make sure he has
:06:44. > :06:45.a full team ready to take on the government
:06:46. > :06:49.The negotiations in relation to how we make the party more democratic
:06:50. > :06:52.is something which is ongoing and the National Executive Committee
:06:53. > :06:55.is meeting in a few weeks in order to be able to discuss that.
:06:56. > :07:02.The division does not stop there because Alan Johnson, the former
:07:03. > :07:05.Home Secretary, has said today that he thinks that Jeremy Corbyn is not
:07:06. > :07:15.fit to be the Leader of the Opposition. He said somebody who was
:07:16. > :07:16.supposed to unify the Labour Party is dividing it.
:07:17. > :07:20.With all the sport here's Mike Bushell at the BBC Sport Centre.
:07:21. > :07:22.It's not been the best week for Lewis Hamilton.
:07:23. > :07:24.He's 23 points behind team-mate Nico Rosberg in the world
:07:25. > :07:26.championship standings, so he was desperate to get pole
:07:27. > :07:28.position for tomorrow's Japanese Grand Prix, but
:07:29. > :07:31.in qualifying he was pipped by, you know who,
:07:32. > :07:50.Nico Rosberg is in the group off, and more importantly, on the track.
:07:51. > :07:53.As F1 heads towards the defining point of the season,
:07:54. > :07:55.Lewis Hamilton has been left trailing in the German's wake.
:07:56. > :07:57.Rosberg dominated practice, but missed out in qualifying.
:07:58. > :07:59.Mistakes are challenging at the Suzuki circuit,
:08:00. > :08:02.but despite this one, he was still quicker than Hamilton.
:08:03. > :08:03.The world champion slipped up on a track
:08:04. > :08:09.Hamilton eventually found his rhythm in the final session,
:08:10. > :08:12.sneaking ahead by almost two tenths of a second.
:08:13. > :08:14.But that could not disrupt the championship
:08:15. > :08:24.All that separated them was a tenth of a second,
:08:25. > :08:29.That is not beyond Hamilton, as he has won the last two
:08:30. > :08:35.Japanese Grand Prix from second on the grid.
:08:36. > :08:38.Johanna Konta is the first British woman to break into the world's top
:08:39. > :08:41.ten in tennis for over 30 years, after she reached the final
:08:42. > :08:46.It took more than two-and-a-half hours for her to beat
:08:47. > :08:50.the American Madison Keys in three sets.
:08:51. > :08:57.The last British woman to reach the top ten was Jo Durie in 1984.
:08:58. > :09:01.Andy Murray sailed through to the men's final
:09:02. > :09:04.with a straight sets victory over Spain's David Ferrer, dropping only
:09:05. > :09:15.Murray will face either Milos Raonic or Grigor Dimitrov for the title.
:09:16. > :09:18.The Olympics and Paralympics may have come and gone,
:09:19. > :09:21.but the next target for British athletes is the Winter Games
:09:22. > :09:28.While Great Britain have made big strides in winter sports,
:09:29. > :09:30.the key to future success could lie with a new,
:09:31. > :09:32.slightly surprising piece of equipment.
:09:33. > :09:45.In a warehouse 15 miles from Glasgow, this oversized trampoline
:09:46. > :09:51.may not look like anything special, but this is a super Tramp, imported
:09:52. > :09:57.from America and costing ?25,000. It is the first of its kind in Europe
:09:58. > :10:02.and could be the new power tool for British ski and snowboarding. It is
:10:03. > :10:06.invaluable. Normal Olympic trampoline are seven by 15 and these
:10:07. > :10:13.are 15 by 15 and the recall is a lot slower so we can go higher and
:10:14. > :10:18.reduce the risk environment before we think about taking them onto the
:10:19. > :10:23.snow. In a few weeks and another snow sports season begins and jobs,
:10:24. > :10:29.twists and turns the bigger the better can bring medals. On this
:10:30. > :10:32.occasion they visited the summer Olympics to share acrobatic ideas.
:10:33. > :10:38.The new kit gets the thumbs up from him. It is so much fun being on a
:10:39. > :10:43.super tram. It is so different to what I am used to and it is great to
:10:44. > :10:51.enjoy it and have some fun really instead of a strict regimented,
:10:52. > :10:57.daily schedule. In 2014 Jenny Jones won Britain's first ever Winter gold
:10:58. > :11:03.medal on snow and with the next game is less than 500 days away, could
:11:04. > :11:07.this training aid help translate to more sports success then? We have
:11:08. > :11:11.athletes who are capable of being on the podium. It will not detract from
:11:12. > :11:16.our likelihood and it will support the athletes to learn the tricks
:11:17. > :11:20.they need to put them in the medal contention group. Although not
:11:21. > :11:25.high-tech, the super Tramp is certainly giving high hopes. A big
:11:26. > :11:33.You can see more on all of today's stories on the BBC News Channel.
:11:34. > :11:36.The next news on BBC One is at twenty five to six.
:11:37. > :11:58.Good afternoon. This gives a sense of the mishmash of whether on offer
:11:59. > :12:04.across the British Isles and the weather watchers have captured that.
:12:05. > :12:09.If this gets thicker and lower, that is what you get on your window
:12:10. > :12:17.panes. It is not all doom and gloom. This is what it looks like from top
:12:18. > :12:21.down. There is some sunshine in the mix. But there is no getting away
:12:22. > :12:28.from the fact that as you drift, as a general rule, down towards East
:12:29. > :12:33.Anglia and the fact is, you increase your chances of seeing some showers.
:12:34. > :12:42.We have had one in central London. In the West as a rule of thumb, the
:12:43. > :12:46.drier your prospects are. The north-western parts of England and
:12:47. > :12:50.Wales as well. In Northern Ireland a bit of brightness will come through.
:12:51. > :12:57.The greatest part of Scotland is dry. The weather should not
:12:58. > :13:02.interrupted Warrington versus Wigan in the grand final at Trafford.
:13:03. > :13:05.There are also a number of international is going on as well
:13:06. > :13:11.and I do not think that weather will get under way and affect them. When
:13:12. > :13:19.a fall at Hamdan as the evening goes on. In the evening there may be some
:13:20. > :13:24.showers in the eastern areas. Even in towns and cities we go down to
:13:25. > :13:30.single figures and quite widely across the British Isles under those
:13:31. > :13:35.clear skies. Come Dawn it converts into a bright start. Still some
:13:36. > :13:40.showers in eastern parts. They will have a tendency, some of them, to
:13:41. > :13:42.drift further towards the West. There will be dry
