:00:09. > :00:12.Tonight at 10pm, female stars at the BBC, call on the corporation

:00:13. > :00:14.to sort out its gender pay gap, now.

:00:15. > :00:18.In an open letter, more than 40 personalities

:00:19. > :00:21.call for urgent action, to ensure women get the same as men,

:00:22. > :00:35.It is not about getting whacking great pay rises for women who are

:00:36. > :00:36.already well paid, it's about pay parity and getting fairness for

:00:37. > :00:38.everybody. The BBC's Director General

:00:39. > :00:40.Tony Hall, says work is already under way,

:00:41. > :00:42.to tackle pay inequality. Princes William and Harry,

:00:43. > :00:45.speak candidly about their mother, Princess Diana, 20 years

:00:46. > :00:47.after her death. All I can hear is her laugh

:00:48. > :00:51.in my head and that sort of crazy laugh where there was just pure

:00:52. > :01:01.happiness shown on her face. England's women, win

:01:02. > :01:05.cricket's World Cup, in a nail-biting victory,

:01:06. > :01:11.over India at Lord's. Chris Froome toasts victory,

:01:12. > :01:16.as he wins the Tour de France The Director General

:01:17. > :01:39.of the BBC, Tony Hall, says work is already under way,

:01:40. > :01:42.to tackle the gender pay His comments come after some

:01:43. > :01:46.of the BBC's best known female personalities,

:01:47. > :01:48.signed an open letter The presenters Claire Balding,

:01:49. > :01:54.Fiona Bruce and Jane Garvey, are among the more than 40

:01:55. > :01:55.signatories. Our Media Correspondent

:01:56. > :02:00.David Sillito reports. More than 40 of the most famous

:02:01. > :02:09.female presenters at the BBC are calling on the

:02:10. > :02:13.Corporation to act now to end its Good morning, friends,

:02:14. > :02:17.and thanks for tuning in. The trigger for today's letter, that

:02:18. > :02:23.list published this week of the pay deals for the BBC's

:02:24. > :02:26.highest-paid stars. In the top 20 names,

:02:27. > :02:30.there was only one woman. The best paid men were

:02:31. > :02:32.being paid twice what the This open letter to

:02:33. > :02:39.the papers says that this week's annual report

:02:40. > :02:41.confirmed what many have long suspected,

:02:42. > :02:42.that women were being paid less

:02:43. > :02:48.than men for the same work. On the whole I think it's

:02:49. > :02:53.fantastic that so many wonderful women have been prepared

:02:54. > :02:55.to stick their head above We've got stick, we knew we were

:02:56. > :02:59.going to get stick, that's why we knew it was never going to be

:03:00. > :03:03.an easy thing to do, but it isn't just about,

:03:04. > :03:05.in fact it's not about getting whacking great pay rises

:03:06. > :03:08.for women who are already well paid. It's about pay parity and getting

:03:09. > :03:10.fairness for everybody. Today's letter says

:03:11. > :03:12.the BBC has known about We all want to do

:03:13. > :03:19.on the record to call Indeed, when programmes such

:03:20. > :03:31.as Woman's Hour first went on air 60 years ago equal pay for equal work

:03:32. > :03:33.was a pressing issue. The fact it remains

:03:34. > :03:35.an issue despite law changes in the 60s and 70s after

:03:36. > :03:38.pressures from the women's movement is perhaps a sign of how tough

:03:39. > :03:41.it is to find quick solutions. Attitudes about age,

:03:42. > :03:44.experience and authority It's also worth noting

:03:45. > :03:48.in the top 20 there's not a single black

:03:49. > :03:50.or Asian presenter. And this also comes at a time

:03:51. > :03:53.when the BBC is facing opposition over its plans to change

:03:54. > :03:57.the terms and conditions for the rest of the staff who are paid

:03:58. > :04:01.a fraction of what any star gets. The Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn says

:04:02. > :04:05.this taps into a wider issue of We would insist

:04:06. > :04:13.on a strong gender pay audit of every organisation,

:04:14. > :04:16.and we would also look at a 20:1 ratio between the Chief Executive

:04:17. > :04:18.and the lowest paid staff in every public

:04:19. > :04:23.sector organisation. Meanwhile, the Government's

:04:24. > :04:27.Equalities Minister said that if anything showed

:04:28. > :04:31.the value of their new regulations requiring firms to reveal

:04:32. > :04:36.pay gaps, it was this. I think it's impossible not to be

:04:37. > :04:39.shocked, to be honest, at just how different some

:04:40. > :04:41.of those differentials were. And, of course, this

:04:42. > :04:44.is the whole reason why we brought forward these regulations,

:04:45. > :04:46.because as much as anything else, transparency is demonstrating

:04:47. > :04:48.to organisations that it's a In response, the BBC said

:04:49. > :04:54.today its overall pay gap is 10%, less than the national

:04:55. > :04:58.average of 18%, but it needed to go further and faster

:04:59. > :05:03.to close the pay gap. The Corporation's Director General

:05:04. > :05:04.says he's confident next year's figures will

:05:05. > :05:06.look very different. Let's speak to our political

:05:07. > :05:21.correspondent, Alex Forsyth. The politicians are getting involved

:05:22. > :05:25.in all this, Alex. What do you think are the possible wider ramifications

:05:26. > :05:31.of this BBC row? Several senior politicians have now

:05:32. > :05:34.condemned the difference between what the highest-paid man women at

:05:35. > :05:39.the BBC earned and you heard Justine Greening, the equalities minister,

:05:40. > :05:42.call it staggering and the Prime Minister said last week the BBC had

:05:43. > :05:46.to look at this whole question of what it pays men and women who are

:05:47. > :05:49.doing the same job. This has implications beyond the BBC. In

:05:50. > :05:53.April this year the government introduced a requirement for any

:05:54. > :05:58.company which employs more than 250 people to publish details of this

:05:59. > :06:04.gender pay gap. They have to do that by April next year. In the next few

:06:05. > :06:07.months we will see a spotlight on other organisations across different

:06:08. > :06:10.sectors. The Government's hope is that transparency and possibly the

:06:11. > :06:13.public sector Dummett pressure that will follow will force companies to

:06:14. > :06:18.address this. Labour wants the government to take more direct

:06:19. > :06:21.action, not just on gender pay but equality more broadly, particularly

:06:22. > :06:24.on the difference between what the highest and lowest paid people in an

:06:25. > :06:29.organisation own. I think what is clear is that the BBC's revelations

:06:30. > :06:33.have sparked a much wider and longer running debate, one that is likely

:06:34. > :06:35.to continue for some time. Alex, thank you for that. Alex Forsyth

:06:36. > :06:37.there. Prince William and Prince Harry,

:06:38. > :06:39.have spoken candidly about their relationship

:06:40. > :06:42.with their mother, Princess Diana, in a documentary marking

:06:43. > :06:44.the 20th anniversary They describe her sense of fun,

:06:45. > :06:48.but also speak of their regret, that their last conversation

:06:49. > :06:51.with her, was a rushed phone call. Our Royal Correspondent

:06:52. > :06:52.Nicholas Witchell's report, To the watching world,

:06:53. > :06:57.she was the princess whose image It was a glamorous

:06:58. > :07:01.but necessarily limited Now nearly 20 years after Diana's

:07:02. > :07:08.death in the car accident in Paris, her sons William and Harry have

:07:09. > :07:12.spoken in an ITV documentary about Diana, the mother who did

:07:13. > :07:15.so much to shape their childhood. We felt, you know, incredibly

:07:16. > :07:19.loved, Harry and I. And I'm very grateful that that

:07:20. > :07:26.love still feels there. It was that love that

:07:27. > :07:30.even if she was on the other side of a room, as a son

:07:31. > :07:35.you could feel it. The person who emerges from William

:07:36. > :07:38.and Harry's description is a woman When everybody says to me,

:07:39. > :07:44.you know, "So, she was fun, All I can hear is her

:07:45. > :07:51.laugh in my head. And that sort of crazy laugh

:07:52. > :07:54.where there was just pure One of her mottos to me was that

:07:55. > :08:05.you can be as naughty as you want, And they talk about

:08:06. > :08:12.their mother's death. They recall the last time they spoke

:08:13. > :08:15.to her and they reflect on the overwhelming public reaction

:08:16. > :08:20.and how they coped with the week As William himself has said,

:08:21. > :08:25.it is a tribute to Diana from her sons in which they recall

:08:26. > :08:27.the woman they hope A 20-year-old man has

:08:28. > :08:36.died in East London, after a confrontation in a shop

:08:37. > :08:39.with a policeman. CCTV footage has emerged,

:08:40. > :08:42.of the officer wrestling the man to the floor,

:08:52. > :08:54.into his local late-night shop At first the arrest

:08:55. > :08:59.was calm but then the officer threw him

:09:00. > :09:00.to the floor and grabbed him

:09:01. > :09:04.around the neck. Later he was joined by what appears

:09:05. > :09:07.to be a plainclothes Just over an hour later

:09:39. > :09:43.morgue waiting for an autopsy and The community's got

:09:53. > :09:54.the shop and the neighbouring barber's

:09:55. > :09:56.shop were clearly upset. I'm angry, I'm sad, I feel

:09:57. > :09:59.for his family, his mother. I know him personally

:10:00. > :10:06.and it's disgusting. Rashan Charles's death follows

:11:02. > :11:06.statement put out last night in which they said both doctors and

:11:07. > :11:10.nurses have been subjected to what it called a shocking and disgraceful

:11:11. > :11:15.tide of abuse both online and verbal abuse in the street, some of them

:11:16. > :11:19.death threats. Tonight, Charlie's parents, and Chris, responded to

:11:20. > :11:23.that statement and said they are extremely upset by the backlash they

:11:24. > :11:26.say they have received since that statement was put out, by backlash

:11:27. > :11:31.we understand that to be online comments directed towards them. They

:12:41. > :12:42.an Israeli, were wounded. It's unclear what motivated

:12:43. > :12:44.the attack, but regional tensions have been heightened,

:12:45. > :12:51.after recent violence in Jerusalem. The number of migrants arriving

:13:09. > :13:10.and the slow process of investigating cases,

:13:11. > :13:12.has led to a bottleneck in Greece, and on the island

:16:43. > :16:47.after taking six wickets. David Ornstein reports. There was a time

:20:27. > :20:30.Our Sports Correspondent Andy Swiss reports from Royal Birkdale.

:20:31. > :20:32.The history books will show he won comfortably.

:20:33. > :20:40.For most of his round, Jordan Spieth seemed a man in meltdown.

:20:41. > :20:44.His overnight lead, unlike his putts, soon vanished.

:20:45. > :20:49.COMMENTATOR: He doesn't miss too many of them.

:20:50. > :20:52.But at the 13th, it was head-in-hands time.

:20:53. > :20:55.A drive so bad, he ended up playing it from the practice ground.

:20:56. > :20:57.He now trailed Matt Kuchar but having seemingly

:20:58. > :20:59.thrown the Open away, Speith sensationally seized it back.

:21:00. > :21:02.Three birdies and an eagle, the worst to the best in barely

:21:03. > :21:12.Finally, he could relax, as at just 23, he became

:21:13. > :21:14.the Open's youngest winner in nearly four decades.

:21:15. > :21:15.COMMENTATOR: It's a royal performance at Birkdale.

:21:16. > :21:18.But talk about doing it the hard way.

:21:19. > :21:20.A dramatic and at times chaotic finale then,

:21:21. > :21:22.but it for Jordan Spieth, eventually the perfect result.

:21:23. > :21:36.Andy Swiss, BBC News, Royal Birkdale.

:21:37. > :21:39.There were more medals today for Great Britain in the World Para

:21:40. > :21:43.Sammi Kinghorn won her second gold, in the T53 100 metres to leave

:21:44. > :21:45.Britain third overall, in the medal tables - as

:21:46. > :21:49.The greatest Championships to date, with record-breaking performances

:21:50. > :21:51.and the usual suspects topping the podium but for some

:21:52. > :21:58.Sammi Kinghorn had never won a world title but this morning she raced

:21:59. > :22:00.to her second victory of the Championship

:22:01. > :22:09.I literally had no idea when I crossed over the line.

:22:10. > :22:12.I heard the crowd scream so I thought - I've won a medal.

:22:13. > :22:15.I saw my name popping up and I was like - really?

:22:16. > :22:18.I got off really hard, my start was good.

:22:19. > :22:21.I knew that was the biggest thing I had to work on from Rio.

:22:22. > :22:23.I'm really glad it has all worked out.

:22:24. > :22:25.Ten months on from Britain's most successful Paralympic Games,

:22:26. > :22:29.the pressure was on the athletes to do it all over again

:22:30. > :22:32.here in London and thanks to a little help from the home

:22:33. > :22:35.crowd, they certainly didn't disappoint.

:22:36. > :22:39.There is no doubt at all, when you have the home support,

:22:40. > :22:47.There may not have been sell-out crowds but it has far exceeded any

:22:48. > :22:50.previous Para Championships and for many of the British

:22:51. > :22:52.athletes it has been the highlight of their careers,

:22:53. > :23:02.creating new memories of London that will be hard to beat.

:23:03. > :23:03.At the women's European Championships England

:23:04. > :23:12.This late strike from Jodie Taylor sealed the win.

:23:13. > :23:16.They are top of Group D and need just one point from their final game

:23:17. > :23:21.Erin Cuthbert scored as Scotland lost 2-1 to Portugal,

:23:22. > :23:23.but they can still reach the last eight with victory

:23:24. > :23:30.That is it for a very busy day of sport and it looks like it will be a

:23:31. > :23:35.long night for England's cricketers who are still celebrating in the pub

:23:36. > :23:37.next to me, and quite right too. Thank you, Natalie Pirks at Lord's.

:23:38. > :23:39.The world's first floating wind farm will soon be in place,

:23:40. > :23:45.One of its five huge turbines arrives at midnight,

:23:46. > :23:47.with the revolutionary technology, allowing the generation

:23:48. > :23:49.of power from strong sea winds, while it floats.

:23:50. > :23:52.It'll provide energy for 20,000 homes.

:23:53. > :24:00.Our Environment Analyst Roger Harrabin, has been

:24:01. > :24:04.following the vast turbines' journey from Norway to Scotland.

:24:05. > :24:07.In the half-light of a summer night in Norway, a landmark in the history

:24:08. > :24:11.of energy floats upright in the chilly water.

:24:12. > :24:15.These five towering turbines will cross the North Sea to Scotland,

:24:16. > :24:21.to form the world's first large-scale floating wind farm.

:24:22. > :24:23.This is engineering on an absolutely gargantuan scale.

:24:24. > :24:28.What you can see is taller than Big Ben.

:24:29. > :24:32.But that's only part of it - there's a third more under

:24:33. > :24:34.the water, weighted heavily at the bottom with iron ore,

:24:35. > :24:37.to keep the thing floating stable in the water.

:24:38. > :24:40.The turbines will be tethered to the sea bed with thick

:24:41. > :24:47.mooring lines 15 miles off the coast of Peterhead.

:24:48. > :24:50.Being able to use floating offshore wind farms gives us much more

:24:51. > :24:53.flexibility when it comes to locating these farms

:24:54. > :24:59.But a note of caution among the enthusiasm.

:25:00. > :25:02.Scientists warn that far more investment in additional

:25:03. > :25:05.new technologies is needed to combat climate change.

:25:06. > :25:11.This monumental kit comes dear, but the price should fall.

:25:12. > :25:13.We think that this is a game changer, this project,

:25:14. > :25:18.for enabling us in the future to reduce the cost and develop wind

:25:19. > :25:26.The first turbine is hauled from the fjord by tugs.

:25:27. > :25:30.It's nearly 12,000 tonnes of steel and ballast.

:25:31. > :25:34.Each blade is as wide as the wingspan of an Airbus.

:25:35. > :25:37.The power of engineers to capture wind energy at sea is growing far
