:00:09. > :00:14.One simple word - Pies - has mystified many
:00:15. > :00:16.drivers in the north-west of England for years.
:00:17. > :00:21.Our correspondent Colin Paterson has been to investigate
:00:22. > :00:28.For three decades, it's been a motoring mystery to many.
:00:29. > :00:31.Up to 200,000 cars a day go under this bridge over the M6 in Cheshire.
:00:32. > :00:41.We were talking about it on the way down and on the way back.
:00:42. > :00:46.We use it as a reference, coming up and down the motorway,
:00:47. > :00:52.So many people in the vehicles below on the M6 driving underneath this
:00:53. > :00:55.bridge look up and see the word pies and wonder what it's all about.
:00:56. > :01:01.The answer is it's a band, one that has been about for a very long time.
:01:02. > :01:03.The Pies from Liverpool have finally released their debut album,
:01:04. > :01:06.30 years after they formed and their name first appeared
:01:07. > :01:13.The M57, that was the famous one, the Pies, the Pies.
:01:14. > :01:17.That was basically because we got stuck on the bridge and we didn't
:01:18. > :01:19.know what to do so we wrote the Pies.
:01:20. > :01:25.Alexei Sayle used to say the council painted around it.
:01:26. > :01:27.There are people who don't like graffiti and there
:01:28. > :01:30.are people who have to pay for their bridges to be repainted.
:01:31. > :01:34.There possibly is people who don't like it but I certainly haven't
:01:35. > :01:37.Year after year their name kept appearing.
:01:38. > :01:41.They didn't put out a record and they performed in the strangest
:01:42. > :01:45.You would have thought the marketing men would have got
:01:46. > :01:49.hold of them and said, now everyone knows what the Pies is,
:01:50. > :01:51.you've got a brand there, let's make albums, let's do
:01:52. > :01:54.something, but in fact they haven't worked like that at all.
:01:55. > :01:56.In 1993, the Pies almost made the big time.
:01:57. > :02:01.They toured the US but turned down a record deal.
:02:02. > :02:03.Instead Ash brought up his son and sold pottery in Wales,
:02:04. > :02:08.What gave you the confidence to finally release the debut album?
:02:09. > :02:12.You know, there was no ifs or buts, this is the time to put
:02:13. > :02:25.They're celebrating with a hometown gig on Saturday and don't expect
:02:26. > :02:27.the Pies to disappear from motorways any time soon.
:02:28. > :02:30.Even if the people don't like us, we are mosquitoes on
:02:31. > :02:55.So we will carry on, like, regardless!
:02:56. > :02:58.The Turkish President has announced a state of urgency for three months
:02:59. > :03:03.after the attempted coup last week. If you're outside of the UK,
:03:04. > :03:07.it's World News America next. They'll be live from the Republican
:03:08. > :03:09.party national convention - the third day willl get underway
:03:10. > :03:12.shortly with the theme 'make Here in the UK, the
:03:13. > :03:15.News at Ten is next. They've got a report
:03:16. > :03:18.from South Sudan, where 500 people are thought to have been killed this
:03:19. > :03:20.month after rival factions in the army turned their
:03:21. > :03:43.guns on each other. President Erdogan declaring a
:03:44. > :03:48.three-month state of emergency after the attempted coup on Friday night.
:03:49. > :03:52.With me as an author who lived in Turkey for ten years, you listen to
:03:53. > :03:56.all of his address on TV, what did you make of it? This is President
:03:57. > :04:02.Erdogan clearly showing everyone he is firmly in control and that he is
:04:03. > :04:06.stronger than he has ever been. He declared a state of emergency for
:04:07. > :04:15.three months, what does this mean? It means it will allow him ways of
:04:16. > :04:21.implementing his agenda which now they are purging, there have been
:04:22. > :04:26.service, lots of purchase within the service, lots of purchase within the
:04:27. > :04:30.military, and ongoing crackdown, basically, on any opposition to him.
:04:31. > :04:34.In the light of what has been going on in the last few days, tens of
:04:35. > :04:39.thousands of people arrested or removed from their positions. To
:04:40. > :04:45.hear him repeatedly say this is in defence of democracy, the freedoms
:04:46. > :04:48.of our citizens, very interesting. He was quick to congratulate
:04:49. > :04:56.everybody that supported him, he said my citizens have been heroic in
:04:57. > :05:01.the face of the coup plot. He said my citizens from all political
:05:02. > :05:07.parties but he also said those who criticise us should stay out of our
:05:08. > :05:09.way, but was a very clear message to anybody that would like to criticise
:05:10. > :05:14.what's happening in the country now, what's happening in the country now,
:05:15. > :05:18.that they should be very cautious. A show of strength, trying to show to
:05:19. > :05:22.the outside world, he talked about investment in Turkey, don't abandon
:05:23. > :05:27.us and talk is down, effectively. What will it mean in practice, the
:05:28. > :05:30.three-month state of emergency, how will it affect daily life, do we
:05:31. > :05:36.know? That's not clear but it could open the way... It would make it
:05:37. > :05:40.easier for him to implement a curfew, let's say, if he wanted to.
:05:41. > :05:44.He did not go that far today but that would be something that would
:05:45. > :05:48.be possible, he did also addressed the economy. There is obviously been
:05:49. > :05:53.concerns about what will happen now in terms of Turkey's economy,
:05:54. > :05:59.tourism is down, a lot of people leaving the country, we are in
:06:00. > :06:02.speaking to people who have been stuck in Turkey under wondering what
:06:03. > :06:07.will happen on their holidays. He said standard on poor has downgraded
:06:08. > :06:12.Turkey's economy and he addressed the credit agencies when he said
:06:13. > :06:16.this is a political move and they shouldn't meddle in the Turkish
:06:17. > :06:21.economy, he said the central bank will take rational decisions and
:06:22. > :06:25.that there is no problem with liquidity in the market so he was
:06:26. > :06:32.trying to reassure investors that Turkey is still strong. Thank you
:06:33. > :06:42.very much. Let's go back to the screen. Let's turn our attention to
:06:43. > :06:46.It appears as though England has its new football manager -
:06:47. > :06:49.Confirmation is expected in the next 24 hours.
:06:50. > :06:51.Allardyce will leave Sunderland after nine months at
:06:52. > :06:53.the Premier League club and replace Roy Hodgson,
:06:54. > :06:55.who resigned after the shocking defeat by Iceland at this
:06:56. > :07:00.Hugh Ferris is in the BBC Sport Centre following this - Hugh -
:07:01. > :07:12.He was the favourite ever since he was interviewed last Tuesday by the
:07:13. > :07:17.English Football Association and from what we understand in the last
:07:18. > :07:22.hours it had become a two horse race between him and Hull city manager
:07:23. > :07:27.Steve Roos, another quintessentially English boss. He will be appointed
:07:28. > :07:30.in the next 24 hours after the full FA board meeting tomorrow at which
:07:31. > :07:35.the three-man panel who have been passed with finding Roy Hodgson's
:07:36. > :07:39.replacement will make the recommendation that the 61-year-old
:07:40. > :07:43.Sam Allardyce who has managed five Premier League clubs during his
:07:44. > :07:46.career, never been relegated from the English top flight, most
:07:47. > :07:53.recently yelping Sunderland stay in the Premier League, will get the
:07:54. > :07:57.job, ratified by the FA board and so, Sam Allardyce, the man known
:07:58. > :08:02.affectionately as big Sam has the big job in English football and his
:08:03. > :08:05.first matter will be the World Cup qualifying away to Slovakia at the
:08:06. > :08:12.start of September. Judging from the successes listed, what is the
:08:13. > :08:16.thinking about his likelihood of success? If you are an English with
:08:17. > :08:22.all find your cynicism would suggest no one would get any success in that
:08:23. > :08:25.particular job, he'd be the 15th permanent manager of the English
:08:26. > :08:28.side and like every other one before him he will have supporters and
:08:29. > :08:33.style, his perceived as someone who style, his perceived as someone who
:08:34. > :08:38.plays long ball football which is not necessarily the most attractive
:08:39. > :08:42.but he has supporters likes Alex Ferguson, the former Manchester
:08:43. > :08:45.United manager, he and others say he has the ability to get the best out
:08:46. > :08:54.of his players, whether they are underperforming players like the
:08:55. > :08:58.England players who earn up to ?150,000 a week. He has embraced
:08:59. > :09:02.sports science and just to finish, managing the best of English
:09:03. > :09:05.football might appeal to him because he once said he'd be better suited
:09:06. > :09:10.rather than the likes of Alton, Blackburn in the north-west of
:09:11. > :09:14.England to the likes of Real Madrid and Inter Milan and he might have
:09:15. > :09:25.actually got those jobs instead of being plain old Sam Allardyce, if he
:09:26. > :09:36.had actually called the rather more fantastically titled Sam Alla DJ! He
:09:37. > :09:37.will and could deliver the long-awaited England trophy! Keep
:09:38. > :09:40.the positivity going. Thank you. Sport and religion often
:09:41. > :09:42.have an uneasy relationship. As a modern pentathlete,
:09:43. > :09:44.Aya Medany has faced some difficult choices ever
:09:45. > :09:45.since the International Swimming The Egyptian has had to balance
:09:46. > :09:50.the needs of her sport
