:01:07. > :01:10.Mass rallies have been held in Turkey to mark the first

:01:11. > :01:13.anniversary of the failed military coup which resulted in the deaths

:01:14. > :01:20.Turkey's President Erdogan said the defeat of the plot was a victory

:01:21. > :01:23.for democracy and promised to punish his enemies.

:01:24. > :01:29.His government has, in the past 12 months,

:01:30. > :01:32.dismissed or arrested 200,000 people, with 7,000 arrested today.

:01:33. > :01:47.They returned to the nightmare began, seized by the tanks one year

:01:48. > :01:51.ago, it has been renamed the 15th of July marked's Bridge. Tens of

:01:52. > :01:56.thousands celebrating victory today. They call a turkey's second

:01:57. > :02:03.independence. Joy and relief clear and he remembered the 260 killed as

:02:04. > :02:09.the people stood up to the plotters. Last year, that line was the Turkish

:02:10. > :02:18.nation, it was strangled by the Kurds. The federal militia tanks,

:02:19. > :02:23.F-16s, bullets and rifles. But they could not strangle the line. It was

:02:24. > :02:27.the greatest ever attack on the Turkish state, rogue soldiers

:02:28. > :02:34.bombing buildings, blocking roads and driving tanks into civilians. By

:02:35. > :02:39.dawn it had failed. Then came the purge, 50,000 arrested and 150,000

:02:40. > :02:43.sacked or suspended. One year ago there was unity against the military

:02:44. > :02:47.coup button at the opposition says it is not coming here, deep cracks

:02:48. > :02:51.have opened up over the arrests and dismissals. This half of the nation

:02:52. > :02:56.believes the 15th of July marked the rebirth of Turkey and the other side

:02:57. > :03:00.says it is killing of what was left of Turkish democracy. As night fell,

:03:01. > :03:03.their hero arrived. He was almost captured in the coup but President

:03:04. > :03:08.Erdogan emerged stronger and tightened his grip. I would like to

:03:09. > :03:16.thank all of our citizens who protected and defended their

:03:17. > :03:20.freedom, democracy, religion, state, government and the future and

:03:21. > :03:28.independence. I thank each and every individual member of our nation.

:03:29. > :03:32.Elsewhere, they are fighting back against the purge, protests in

:03:33. > :03:36.support of two academics on hunger strike for four months since they

:03:37. > :03:40.were fired. Alongside the human rights monument is now sealed off,

:03:41. > :03:45.public metaphor for the plight of Turkey. TRANSLATION: One day their

:03:46. > :03:49.name is on the list and you are struck off, your life is turned

:03:50. > :03:57.upside down, you are killed off by the system, they are political state

:03:58. > :04:01.I cannot think of any alternative. The celebrations went on beside the

:04:02. > :04:07.new markers monument, the 15th of July edged into this country, for

:04:08. > :04:08.better or worse. One year since the national trauma and Turkey is still

:04:09. > :04:10.torn. And Mark is live in

:04:11. > :04:14.Istanbul for us now. What signs are there

:04:15. > :04:30.that the president will be able Frankly, there are very few signs at

:04:31. > :04:34.all. One week ago, 1 million people rallied here in Istanbul against the

:04:35. > :04:38.government, against the mass dismissals, chanting the word

:04:39. > :04:42.justice, President Erdogan labelled them terrorism supporters and over

:04:43. > :04:46.the past year both sides have grown dramatically further apart. Another

:04:47. > :04:50.development is that Turkey has grown dramatically further apart from the

:04:51. > :04:55.West and the EU, a chasm has opened up to the extent that a few months

:04:56. > :04:58.ago President Erdogan labelled Dutch and German leaders Nazis and

:04:59. > :05:01.fascists. Turkey's government believes there was a lack of

:05:02. > :05:05.solidarity from Western allies on the night of the crew. It is a

:05:06. > :05:10.dangerous moment, the West needs this country, it is a vital Nato

:05:11. > :05:14.member and a candidate for European Union membership and a crucial

:05:15. > :05:18.pillar of stability previously in the east. The West cannot afford to

:05:19. > :05:22.lose this country but one year on from the failed coup, Turkey feels

:05:23. > :05:24.like it has lost its way. Mark, thank Lowen.

:05:25. > :05:27.Tony Blair has suggested the UK could win concessions

:05:28. > :05:29.on immigration to try to keep it within the European Union.

:05:30. > :05:32.The former Prime Minister said European leaders might be prepared

:05:33. > :05:34.to offer a compromise on the free movement of people.

:05:35. > :05:36.His comments, though, have been dismissed by senior

:05:37. > :05:42.Our political correspondent, Eleanor Garnier, reports.

:05:43. > :05:46.Balancing the needs of the UK economy at the same time as getting

:05:47. > :05:52.control of Britain's borders is a key issue in the Brexit debate

:05:53. > :05:55.but a former Labour Prime Minister has suggested political change

:05:56. > :05:59.in France has opened the path to compromise.

:06:00. > :06:02.Tony Blair claims the EU could be willing to make concessions

:06:03. > :06:05.on the free movement of people to allow the UK to stay

:06:06. > :06:11.Britain benefits enormously from that freedom of movement.

:06:12. > :06:16.However the question is, where there are changes to it,

:06:17. > :06:21.not alteration in the visibility of the printable but qualifications

:06:22. > :06:25.to it, around the things that concern people.

:06:26. > :06:28.But these claims directly contradict what those in Brussels are saying,

:06:29. > :06:33.that the UK must accept free movement without

:06:34. > :06:41.I'm not going to disclose conversations I had within Europe,

:06:42. > :06:44.but I'm not saying this on the basis of a whim.

:06:45. > :06:47.Some of those who campaigned to leave the EU says there is no

:06:48. > :06:53.The EU has made it absolutely clear that the four freedoms

:06:54. > :06:55.including freedom of movement are indivisible.

:06:56. > :07:03.They took four minutes to agree these guidelines,

:07:04. > :07:08.It's complete nonsense, another attempt to undermine Brexit.

:07:09. > :07:12.Campaigning in Southampton, the current Labour leader rejected

:07:13. > :07:14.the position of his predecessor and says his party respects

:07:15. > :07:24.Anyone is entitled to give their views and I listen to all of them.

:07:25. > :07:29.The views we have are that we want to see tariff free access

:07:30. > :07:30.to the European market, protection of EU nationals

:07:31. > :07:33.and of the rights and consumer rights we achieved through

:07:34. > :07:38.This latest intervention from Tony Blair will not

:07:39. > :07:48.change the government's approach to negotiations.

:07:49. > :07:50.Ministers say the former Labour Prime Minister

:07:51. > :07:54.that he is out of touch with voters yet Mr Blair has reopened the debate

:07:55. > :07:57.on the central issue of Brexit, a decision he says is the biggest

:07:58. > :07:59.country has faced since the Second World War.

:08:00. > :08:01.Once he helped determine Britain's place in the world.

:08:02. > :08:04.Now this former Prime Minister must settle with commenting

:08:05. > :08:10.One of two teenagers arrested by police after a series of acid

:08:11. > :08:12.attacks in north London on Thursday night has been charged

:08:13. > :08:18.Among the charges the 16-year-old faces are five counts of grevious

:08:19. > :08:20.bodily harm with intent, three counts of robbery and four

:08:21. > :08:30.The second teenager has been released on bail.

:08:31. > :08:33.A 15-year-old girl has died after suffering an adverse reaction

:08:34. > :08:34.to a psychoactive substance, commonly referred

:08:35. > :08:40.The teenager was found unconscious in the early hours of this morning

:08:41. > :08:48.Two other girls were also taken to hospital as a precaution.

:08:49. > :08:51.It is important for me to make sure that people don't misuse the term

:08:52. > :08:55.legal highs, as has often been talked about.

:08:56. > :08:57.It tends to give it some sort of legitimacy.

:08:58. > :08:59.These are all illegal drugs and, in fact, they

:09:00. > :09:03.are very dangerous because we don't know what goes into making them up.

:09:04. > :09:06.Time and time again we hear locally, regionally and nationally, people

:09:07. > :09:13.It is not worth experimenting with your life.

:09:14. > :09:15.With all the sport - here's Lizzie Greenwood Hughes

:09:16. > :09:22.There was a stunning and surprisingly swift victory

:09:23. > :09:24.for Spain's Garbine Muguruza in the Wimbledon Ladies

:09:42. > :09:43.14 years between the players, would you have

:09:44. > :09:45.experience be decisive, the

:09:46. > :09:57.20 Three Rd Garbine Muguruza and Venus Williams. That is fair.

:09:58. > :10:03.Beneath the roof, amplified rallies, longer and longer. And the growth

:10:04. > :10:10.was getting better. The first set 7-5. The second set started with a

:10:11. > :10:15.double fault and venous unravelled. Even when she threw everything into

:10:16. > :10:21.her shots, there was Garbine Muguruza, strong and certain. A new

:10:22. > :10:26.champion Andoni Iraola? The match settled by a computer. The final

:10:27. > :10:32.Williams era but there have been many, second set 6-0, Muguruza had

:10:33. > :10:37.beaten the player and reputation. The hardest match today, against

:10:38. > :10:40.Venus, she is such an incredible player, I grew up watching her play

:10:41. > :10:46.so it was incredible to play her in the final! Mark Venus experience

:10:47. > :10:50.today was what the Williams sisters inflicted on so many opponents here.

:10:51. > :10:55.But neither done? Venus had this message for Serena. I tried my best

:10:56. > :10:57.to do the same things you do but I think there will be other

:10:58. > :11:03.opportunities. I do. APPLAUSE.

:11:04. > :11:07.There is a new champion. Changed out of tennis gear and surrounded by old

:11:08. > :11:11.friends and plenty of new ones as well. This occasion always stays the

:11:12. > :11:16.same but Wimbledon always need somebody to handle it a bit

:11:17. > :11:20.differently. It is the new take on tradition. It keeps us enthralled.

:14:33. > :14:37.Now, it's the school known for launching the careers of some

:14:38. > :14:39.of our biggest names in music and film.

:14:40. > :14:42.The BRIT School in south London is celebrating 25 years since it

:14:43. > :14:56.Our correspondent Colleen Harris has this report.

:14:57. > :15:08.Before they became household names... Their talents were honed

:15:09. > :15:13.here. The BRIT School. Britain's answer to the American music school

:15:14. > :15:18.fame, where dreams came alive and Grammy award winners nurtured. I

:15:19. > :15:24.suppose I just want to get back, it really helped me out, it was a Free

:15:25. > :15:31.School and I had some amazing times here and it really set me up. It was

:15:32. > :15:35.great for my career. It became the first free state funded performing

:15:36. > :15:38.arts school in 1991 with the help of Sir Richard Branson, Sir George

:15:39. > :15:45.Martin and the British record industry trust. Today, former

:15:46. > :15:51.students have returned to inspire the next generation with their own

:15:52. > :15:54.success. I just felt instantly wagons in a place where I belonged

:15:55. > :15:57.because it would fill its kids from all over the country that are so

:15:58. > :16:02.talented but didn't have the money to go to a specialist school and

:16:03. > :16:05.because of that we were quite an ambitious, hungry crowd. Coming

:16:06. > :16:08.through the doors has opened up opportunities for thousands of

:16:09. > :16:11.students. But like many state schools across the country, there

:16:12. > :16:17.are funding challenges ahead for the BRIT School. All political parties

:16:18. > :16:21.do not appreciate the arts. And their importance. The amount of

:16:22. > :16:25.income that the arts generates for this country and what gets given

:16:26. > :16:28.back in return is peanuts. The government are quite willing to

:16:29. > :16:33.praise success in theatre and everything else but they are not

:16:34. > :16:39.willing to support it. I vision that started 25 years ago. And new

:16:40. > :16:40.students are hoping they can keep the dream alive. Colin Harris, BBC

:16:41. > :16:42.News, the BRIT School. You can see more on all of today's

:16:43. > :17:06.stories on the BBC News Channel. If today was a little cloudy for

:17:07. > :17:09.your liking, in most places there is something brighter on the way

:17:10. > :17:12.tomorrow, things brightened up a little for the end of the day in
