:00:20. > :00:22.I think that frankly a three-month study of this issue is nothing more

:01:51. > :01:51.Here's our Business Correspondent Joe Lynam.
:01:52. > :01:54.How much we pay for our energy, to run our households and companies
:01:55. > :02:01.Policies like capping energy prices to support working families.
:02:02. > :02:04.That's why Theresa May promised a price cap and an independent probe
:02:05. > :02:08.into the energy sector before the general election.
:02:09. > :02:11.The cap may have been shelved but this Oxford University
:02:12. > :02:13.professor, Dieter Helm, has only three months to find out
:02:14. > :02:17.where any fat can be trimmed from our energy bills.
:02:18. > :02:20.He says he will sort all the facts from the myths
:02:21. > :02:25.This review will look at all the costs that make up your bill.
:02:26. > :02:27.The main ones include buying gas and electricity
:02:28. > :02:32.That accounts for 36% of a typical bill.
:02:33. > :02:34.Moving it through pipes and cables, known as distribution,
:02:35. > :02:41.But 13% of our bill includes subsidies for poorer households,
:02:42. > :02:46.and the cost of developing renewable - or green - energy supplies.
:02:47. > :02:50.The rest is made up by operational costs and VAT.
:02:51. > :02:52.And, for some households, it's not clear whether this review
:02:53. > :02:56.will be the green light for lower bills.
:02:57. > :02:59.They've gone up so much and I find I'm paying a lot of money.
:03:00. > :03:07.Like, it can't just happen at the click of a finger.
:03:08. > :03:14.It's a case of they have to go away, review it, and come back.

:03:20. > :03:22.He says there's not much that Dieter Helm can do in three months.
:03:23. > :03:24.I think a review this short is essentially headline management.
:03:25. > :03:26.I don't think Dieter, heroic though he is,
:03:27. > :03:29.is going to be ale to come up with something that isn't
:03:30. > :03:31.already widely discussed inside the energy community.
:03:32. > :03:39.Where we know that the quickest and cheapest way to drive bills down
:03:40. > :03:41.is to improve the efficiency of our buildings.
:03:42. > :03:46.After British Gas said it would be raising its standard electricity
:03:47. > :03:49.prices by 12.5% - this energy probe would allow the Government
:03:50. > :03:52.to say it's not tone deaf in the face of rising prices.
:03:53. > :03:58.And our political correspondent Vicki Young is here.
:03:59. > :04:06.Consumers obviously want lower prices. Is that the point of this
:04:07. > :04:09.review question is that what is likely to happen? Theresa May has
:04:10. > :04:14.talked about helping the just about managing. Cheering the election
:04:15. > :04:20.campaign the Conservatives promised something pretty bold, a price cap.
:04:21. > :04:24.That is off the agenda because some conservatives do not like the idea
:04:25. > :04:28.of intervening in the market even though customers feel the market is
:04:29. > :04:32.not working for them. The bit that has survived is the wide review of
:04:33. > :04:36.the industry. It is an independent review, always worth looking at the
:04:37. > :04:40.person in charge of it. Deta Hedman has taken against green subsidies.
:04:41. > :04:46.He does believe that solar and wind power have all role to play back he
:04:47. > :04:50.feels they are too expensive. If you're looking at immediate action
:04:51. > :04:54.on bringing the bill down, ministers say they are urging Ofgem to use
:04:55. > :04:57.powers it already has two protect those particularly on the lowest
:04:58. > :05:02.incomes. The advice remains the same does that if you want to bring the
:05:03. > :05:04.bills down immediately, the best advice is to switch.
:05:05. > :05:07.The American sprinter Justin Gatlin, who won the 100m
:05:08. > :05:09.at the World Athletics Championships in London, was given a mixed

:05:44. > :05:48.with bated breath their -- head of the awarding of the gold medal. He
:05:49. > :05:52.was spared the torrent of booze and rancour that were witnessed after
:05:53. > :05:53.the race last night but that victory has exposed some awkward questions
:05:54. > :05:58.for the world of track and field. It was the sight and the sound that
:05:59. > :06:03.athletics had feared. The American, twice banned for drug
:06:04. > :06:06.offences, crowned world champion Some booed, some applauded,
:06:07. > :06:10.others did not seem to know Instead, the cheers were reserved

:06:26. > :06:30.with the world's most senior This is unfortunate in the current
:06:31. > :06:35.debate at the moment, and it is unfortunate mainly
:06:36. > :06:39.because he was a two-time offender. In many ways I wish it had not
:06:40. > :06:43.happened but it has, and we have to abide by the rules
:06:44. > :06:46.of the game. At the last World Championships
:06:47. > :06:48.in Beijing, athletics breathed a sigh of relief
:06:49. > :06:53.when Boltnarrowly beat Gatlin. But two years on, Gatlin has become
:06:54. > :07:05.one of the sport's most controversial winners and some now
:07:06. > :07:08.want track and field to get tougher. Is it his fault he is
:07:09. > :07:10.allowed to run again? It is the people
:07:11. > :07:13.that make the rules. Yes, we should be disgruntled
:07:14. > :07:15.with the people that make the rules and go,
:07:16. > :07:18.it is time for change When you're caught for drugs,
:07:19. > :07:21.you're banned for life. It is something that clean athletes
:07:22. > :07:25.have been saying for 15, 20 years. The shadow cast by cheating
:07:26. > :07:31.extends well beyond Gatlin. World champion hurdler
:07:32. > :07:34.Sergey Shubenkov is one of just 19 Russians allowed to compete here,
:07:35. > :07:37.but only as neutral athletes, because the country is banned
:07:38. > :07:43.for state-sponsored doping. But it is Gatlin who is athletics'
:07:44. > :07:46.pantomime villain and the sport's most powerful man admitted
:07:47. > :07:49.it is a result he could do without. I am hardly going to sit
:07:50. > :07:55.here and tell you I am eulogistic that somebody who has served two
:07:56. > :07:58.bans in our sport would walk off with one of our glittering prizes,
:07:59. > :08:01.but he is eligible to be here. Last night, I asked Gatlin
:08:02. > :08:04.whether the sport could be proud I faced all the rules
:08:05. > :08:10.and the penalties, and I have inspired other athletes,
:08:11. > :08:13.you know, to be better, I have done so much
:08:14. > :08:19.in the community back home. I want them to know that mistakes
:08:20. > :08:22.can happen but you cam come back and work hard for them,
:08:23. > :08:24.and you can be accepted Many in the sport had hoped

:08:49. > :08:50.Here is Natalie Pirks with the rest of the news, including another
:08:51. > :08:53.significant medal ceremony. The moment felt familiar,
:08:54. > :08:56.nostalgic even. Jessica Ennis-Hill topped the podium
:08:57. > :08:58.in London once more. This time she was finally
:08:59. > :09:00.getting her hands on what was Cheated out of gold in 2011
:09:01. > :09:07.by Russian Tatyana Chernova, she wasn't sure if this moment
:09:08. > :09:10.would ever come. My husband said to me,
:09:11. > :09:16."You're not going to cry, are you?" But I'd forgotten that feeling
:09:17. > :09:23.when you step out in an arena like this and actually hear
:09:24. > :09:25.the crowd cheering for you. It was just really special to be
:09:26. > :09:33.on the podium for one last time. Katarina Johnson-Thompson has long

:18:50. > :18:51.These days, the greatest threat to these elephants is not
:18:52. > :18:57.the locals but criminal gangs, who operate across the border.
:18:58. > :19:03.We are faced with organised crime cartels, heavily armed.
:19:04. > :19:15.And now we're in a situation where, in some of our national

:19:41. > :19:52.Good evening. We are starting with cricket.
:19:53. > :19:54.England's batsmen have been struggling in the gloom
:19:55. > :19:59.in Manchester - they've been losing wickets aplenty on this third
:20:00. > :20:02.day of the final Test against South Africa but they do
:20:03. > :20:04.have a healthy lead, despite the rain.
:20:05. > :20:14.Pulses of energy moving the game onto England's and table with South
:20:15. > :20:18.Africa left on the platform. England were 136 runs further down the track
:20:19. > :20:27.in the first innings but soon hit the buffers. The game finally
:20:28. > :20:33.slowed. For a time it revolved around Jennings. Fighting for the
:20:34. > :20:37.runs that might keep him in the team against the flaws that might condemn
:20:38. > :20:45.him. He could not help himself. Test cricket is a ferocious beast.
:20:46. > :20:50.England four damn. For reassurance they looked to the still angelic
:20:51. > :20:54.face of their captain, Joe Root. Right now the nearest there is to
:20:55. > :21:06.guarantee of runs. Look at the expression. This on 49. Say it ain't
:21:07. > :21:08.so, Joe. Moeen Ali dropped once, no South African was catching this.
:21:09. > :21:16.Jonny Bairstow fielding several laws up. He may have put England out of
:21:17. > :21:22.reach. The weather has finally caught up with us at Old Trafford
:21:23. > :21:27.but not before an entertaining day's Test cricket. England in charge. Two
:21:28. > :21:30.scheduled days remaining. We may not need all of them. Looking at the
:21:31. > :21:32.forecast, we may not get all of them.
:21:33. > :21:35.The Premier League starts in just a week's time,
:21:36. > :21:37.and today Chelsea and Arsenal met in the Community Shield.
:21:38. > :21:40.So it's time to leave the room if you don't want to know
:21:41. > :21:43.the results as Match of the Day follows on BBC One.
:21:44. > :21:45.The game finished 1-1, with Arsenal winning 4-1
