Hello. This is or outside Soares. At the age of just 23, Great Britain's | :00:12. | :00:20. | |
Joe Clarke wins gold to bring in the kayak K1. In Chris Froome, winner of | :00:21. | :00:26. | |
the Tour de France, takes bronze in the time trial. The gold went to | :00:27. | :00:36. | |
FabianCancellera. The lease on the city of Baltimore | :00:37. | :00:54. | |
have been accused of routinely discriminating against black people. | :00:55. | :00:56. | |
There were riots there last year after Freddie Grey died in police | :00:57. | :01:00. | |
custody. Firefighters in Madeira say they are finally getting control of | :01:01. | :01:04. | |
a wild wire around the capital, but holiday-makers heading home early. | :01:05. | :01:06. | |
And allegations of assault, child abuse and self-harm among refugees | :01:07. | :01:08. | |
and asylum seekers held at the Australian immigration centre and | :01:09. | :01:11. | |
now rue. The UN says it gravely concerned. | :01:12. | :01:18. | |
Hello. That go straight to Rio. Day five of the Olympic Games is | :01:19. | :01:24. | |
underway. Plenty of medals up for grabs today in the men's and women's | :01:25. | :01:29. | |
cycling time trials and the slalom canoeing, where Great Britain | :01:30. | :01:32. | |
claimed its second gold. More on that in a moment. Let's take another | :01:33. | :01:36. | |
look at the medals table. It is constantly changing, of course. This | :01:37. | :01:40. | |
is how it looks at the moment. The United States still up there at the | :01:41. | :01:46. | |
top, ten gold medals. China, and the Republic of Korea now sneaking up to | :01:47. | :01:50. | |
third place, with four gold-medal. Let's speak to Chris Mitchell, who | :01:51. | :01:55. | |
is in Rio for us. It took about Joe Clarke, amazing performance in the | :01:56. | :02:00. | |
K1 kayaking. -- let's talk about Joe Clarke. | :02:01. | :02:03. | |
Yes, an amazing performance from him. A little unexpected as well. | :02:04. | :02:07. | |
Here's a junior champion who has been kayaking for a long time. He | :02:08. | :02:12. | |
took it up when he was 11, and is 23 now. There is an interesting back | :02:13. | :02:16. | |
story that. When he took up kayaking, he went to his local club | :02:17. | :02:20. | |
because he enjoyed it so much and they said he could not join because | :02:21. | :02:24. | |
he was not old enough. They have got egg on their faces now. And UK sport | :02:25. | :02:28. | |
will be pleased, as they have invested a lot of public money into | :02:29. | :02:32. | |
this young man, and he has repaid handsomely. I think he was surprised | :02:33. | :02:37. | |
as well, that this has been his focus for four years since London, | :02:38. | :02:42. | |
which inspired him. He was not there, but he said he wanted to be | :02:43. | :02:46. | |
there. He could be an Olympian, and he has done very well for himself. | :02:47. | :02:50. | |
Excellent performance with him, and unexpected gold medal, and if I can | :02:51. | :02:55. | |
quickly update you, Britain could have a third unexpected gold-medal | :02:56. | :02:58. | |
in just a few moments. They are doing very well, Jack Law, in the | :02:59. | :03:04. | |
synchronised diving. I have one eye on that, and I will let you know if | :03:05. | :03:07. | |
they have managed to get the gold ahead of the Chinese. That really | :03:08. | :03:12. | |
would be a surprise, Britain's first gold medal in the Olympics in that | :03:13. | :03:16. | |
diving event. Britain's success is probably down | :03:17. | :03:19. | |
to the legacy of the London Olympics. They probably have good | :03:20. | :03:23. | |
training facilities now, and the same for the cycling. Not a | :03:24. | :03:26. | |
particularly good day for Britain in the cycling, though? | :03:27. | :03:30. | |
That is unfair! I know where you are saying. We are used to titles, and | :03:31. | :03:34. | |
we! You are absolutely right, it is just | :03:35. | :03:40. | |
hard on these competitors. Chris Froome has just come from climbing | :03:41. | :03:45. | |
the Alps and cycling around France and winning the Tour de France for | :03:46. | :03:49. | |
the third time, and then you expect him with no break whatsoever to come | :03:50. | :03:53. | |
to Rio and when the time trial. To be fair, he did say that this is | :03:54. | :03:57. | |
what he had his heart set on. He didn't perform particularly well in | :03:58. | :04:02. | |
the road race. Better than URI could have done, but this was his focus. | :04:03. | :04:07. | |
He came third, and afterwards, said he was really happy with his | :04:08. | :04:09. | |
performance, that he couldn't have done any better, and couldn't have | :04:10. | :04:14. | |
beaten Fabian Cancellera. What a performance from that man. He won | :04:15. | :04:18. | |
this in 2008, and in 20s well, he was the favourite in London. He | :04:19. | :04:23. | |
crashed in the road race, broke bones, was badly bruised, went into | :04:24. | :04:27. | |
the time trial, is spectacularly well despite his injuries but did | :04:28. | :04:31. | |
not get a medal. This is his last year as a professional rider, came | :04:32. | :04:34. | |
here as an excellent athlete, and has performed out of his skin | :04:35. | :04:38. | |
together gold-medal, citing his story is wonderful, a gold medal. So | :04:39. | :04:45. | |
in, and a very exciting time trial. In the women's as well, Kristin | :04:46. | :04:49. | |
Armstrong, the American, going in the women's race, 42 years old, she | :04:50. | :04:55. | |
gets the travel. Beijing, London, Rio. Phenomenal. She celebrates her | :04:56. | :05:00. | |
43rd birthday sometime this week. I mean, it is brilliant. | :05:01. | :05:05. | |
Well done to them, and well done to Chris Froome, because he is | :05:06. | :05:09. | |
brilliant. I just want to show our viewers this. We were talking about | :05:10. | :05:13. | |
Michael Phelps, who one another gold-medal yesterday. If you were | :05:14. | :05:16. | |
watching a couple of nights ago, you would have heard me saying that if | :05:17. | :05:20. | |
he were a country, he would be 35th on the overall medal table. He is | :05:21. | :05:24. | |
now up to 32nd, tied with Ethiopia. That is quite astonishing. Is there | :05:25. | :05:30. | |
another opportunity there for him to win maybe another gold? | :05:31. | :05:37. | |
Oh, yes! He is going to do it! He is swimming very well. He won in the | :05:38. | :05:41. | |
200 individual medley heats earlier today, and is in the semifinals | :05:42. | :05:46. | |
later. I expect him to get to the final tomorrow. I think the | :05:47. | :05:49. | |
interesting thing about Michael Phelps and that victory last night | :05:50. | :05:53. | |
is, the 200 metres butterfly, which he won, was his signature event. I | :05:54. | :06:00. | |
think I'm right in saying he had not lost in front 2001 until 2012, when | :06:01. | :06:04. | |
he was beaten by Chandler Clive, and then after the London games, he went | :06:05. | :06:10. | |
out with a bit of a whimper, and after that, retired. He has come | :06:11. | :06:15. | |
back from retirement, he has got a Beyonce, he has been in rehab after | :06:16. | :06:18. | |
a second driving under the implement 's arrest. Lots of things have | :06:19. | :06:22. | |
happened, basically, and he has come back here and regain his title. As | :06:23. | :06:26. | |
we know, he is the greatest Olympian that has ever walked the earth. Mark | :06:27. | :06:31. | |
Spitz got nine gold-medal than April. Ian Poulter got five, and we | :06:32. | :06:37. | |
talk about them. Spitz and Thorpe are great, but Phelps has got 21 | :06:38. | :06:45. | |
gold medals. He has got to work -- he is so far ahead of everybody | :06:46. | :06:50. | |
else. The expression on his face last night was, I can't believe it, | :06:51. | :06:54. | |
I am so happy I have done it. It was a real sporting moment. The | :06:55. | :06:58. | |
International Olympic Committee will be very pleased indeed. | :06:59. | :07:01. | |
Keepers at the speed with the diving. We will keep up with that. | :07:02. | :07:05. | |
An investigation into police arresting the US city of Baltimore | :07:06. | :07:11. | |
found routine discrimination against black people in the use of excessive | :07:12. | :07:15. | |
force. The US Justice Department ordered the enquiry after a young | :07:16. | :07:18. | |
black man, Freddie Grey, died in police custody last April. Here is | :07:19. | :07:23. | |
some of a press conference that was held just a few hours ago. We | :07:24. | :07:28. | |
conclude that there is reasonable cause to believe that BPD engages in | :07:29. | :07:33. | |
a pattern of practice and convert them violates the constitution and | :07:34. | :07:37. | |
federal and I discrimination laws. BPD engages in a patina practice of | :07:38. | :07:46. | |
making unconstitutional stocks, searches and arrests, using | :07:47. | :07:48. | |
enforcement strategies that produce severe and unjust disparities in the | :07:49. | :07:53. | |
rate of stops, searches and arrests for African-Americans. Using | :07:54. | :07:57. | |
excessive force, retaliating against people engaging in constitutionally | :07:58. | :07:59. | |
protected expression. Plenty of reaction to that. A limp | :08:00. | :08:04. | |
Maqbool in Washington gave as the police reaction. | :08:05. | :08:06. | |
The Police Commissioner said it was the fog of a few bad officers -- | :08:07. | :08:11. | |
default only bad officers, and he promised there would be change along | :08:12. | :08:13. | |
the lines of the recommendations this report, that there should be | :08:14. | :08:18. | |
better training complete opposites, and also better accountability. Some | :08:19. | :08:22. | |
of the things highlighted in this report are extraordinary, including | :08:23. | :08:24. | |
the fact that there were many cases where officers were accused of | :08:25. | :08:33. | |
racially abusing residents of the city and that were never | :08:34. | :08:36. | |
investigated fully. Those are things the Police Commissioner said would | :08:37. | :08:39. | |
happen now, and he said it was for the good of police officers as well | :08:40. | :08:44. | |
as the community to make these reforms. The mayor has actually a | :08:45. | :08:47. | |
lesbian on board when it comes to changing the way the police and | :08:48. | :08:51. | |
community interact. She was actually one of those who called for this | :08:52. | :08:55. | |
investigation in the first place, but this is a report which certainly | :08:56. | :08:59. | |
does vindicate what a lots of people in Baltimore have said, but on the | :09:00. | :09:05. | |
other hand, they would like to see action, because this has been an | :09:06. | :09:07. | |
erosion of this relationship that has taken place over decades. | :09:08. | :09:13. | |
Is this specific just a Baltimore, or does it have implications for | :09:14. | :09:17. | |
other police forces as well? We have to see if it has | :09:18. | :09:20. | |
implications for the police force even in Baltimore, aside from just | :09:21. | :09:26. | |
being a very damning report. Of course, it is something that is | :09:27. | :09:30. | |
reflected elsewhere. This is not the first report like this in the city, | :09:31. | :09:34. | |
nor the first one has come out with findings like this. A very similar | :09:35. | :09:38. | |
report happened and Ferguson after, of those, Michael Brown, that | :09:39. | :09:43. | |
unarmed black teenager was shot down there, his body left in the street | :09:44. | :09:47. | |
for four hours before it was taken away. That was a couple of years | :09:48. | :09:51. | |
ago, of course, which started this whole process of the Black Lives | :09:52. | :09:56. | |
Matter movement, taking things to the street, and the knock-on impact | :09:57. | :10:01. | |
elsewhere. So it has certainly been reflected elsewhere. There have been | :10:02. | :10:06. | |
reports like this in Cleveland and Albuquerque and other cities. But in | :10:07. | :10:10. | |
the case of Ferguson, for example, the Department of Justice then had | :10:11. | :10:14. | |
to follow up and Sue or threaten to sue the city because they did not | :10:15. | :10:16. | |
make the changes that were seen to be necessary, and that's what people | :10:17. | :10:20. | |
in Baltimore will want to avoid. They will want to see these changes | :10:21. | :10:25. | |
quickly, but of course, this is a problem across America. We have seen | :10:26. | :10:29. | |
that this summer with some of the incidents that have been going on, | :10:30. | :10:34. | |
some that at least have been caught on camera, and there will be | :10:35. | :10:37. | |
African-Americans who really don't feel that there will be any change | :10:38. | :10:42. | |
unless there is a change in mindset among the police and wider | :10:43. | :10:47. | |
population across the country. Now, we are keeping our ion this. | :10:48. | :10:51. | |
Russia has accused Ukraine of trying to mount an armed incursion into | :10:52. | :10:57. | |
Crimea, a territory which you will remember was seized and annexed by | :10:58. | :11:00. | |
Russia in 2014. The artist the intelligence agency claims to | :11:01. | :11:03. | |
attempted incursions took place over the weekend, and that a Russian | :11:04. | :11:08. | |
soldier and FSB employee were killed in clashes with Ukrainian special | :11:09. | :11:12. | |
forces. There has been a particularly strong statement from | :11:13. | :11:14. | |
the Russian president Bud Amir Putin. -- Vladimir Putin. | :11:15. | :11:24. | |
For its part, Ukraine has rubbished the allegations. The country's | :11:25. | :11:29. | |
representative to the council of Europe said this. | :11:30. | :11:41. | |
Tom Burridge has been looking into the story for us. | :11:42. | :11:46. | |
One thing we know from sure is that one of the main crossing points from | :11:47. | :11:51. | |
Crimea into mainland Ukraine was temporarily closed on Saturday. The | :11:52. | :11:56. | |
Ukrainians then said that Russia had carried out a build-up of military | :11:57. | :12:00. | |
hardware and troops in the northern part of Crimea, close to the | :12:01. | :12:04. | |
dividing line with mainland Ukraine. Of course, Crimea was annexed by | :12:05. | :12:12. | |
Russia two years ago. We have now had the FSB, the Russian federal | :12:13. | :12:16. | |
security service, coming out with a statement accusing Ukrainian special | :12:17. | :12:20. | |
forces of carrying out a sabotage mission on infrastructure. It claims | :12:21. | :12:28. | |
a sabotage mission was attempted on Saturday. It says in a fight, and | :12:29. | :12:33. | |
FSB agent was killed, and it claims there was fighting the following day | :12:34. | :12:37. | |
between the Russian military and the Ukrainian military, and that one | :12:38. | :12:42. | |
Russian soldier was killed. The Ukrainians have come out and said | :12:43. | :12:46. | |
this whole story is a nonsense, a fake, in the words of the Ukrainian | :12:47. | :12:50. | |
government. One Ukrainian official said that the Ukrainian government | :12:51. | :12:53. | |
has no desire to take back Ukraine by military means. But the language | :12:54. | :13:00. | |
from Vladimir Putin that we have now had is extremely strong, saying that | :13:01. | :13:08. | |
Ukraine, and accusing Ukraine of choosing terror over peace, and | :13:09. | :13:12. | |
saying that Russia will take serious security measures to ensure the | :13:13. | :13:15. | |
safety of Crimea. Tom Burridge in Kiev. More on that | :13:16. | :13:20. | |
story on the BBC News app. Stay with us. | :13:21. | :13:24. | |
Coming up... Delete files and show serious abuse in Australia's | :13:25. | :13:27. | |
offshore migrant retention centre on the island of Nauru. | :13:28. | :13:34. | |
A former care worker in the UK who later became a Catholic priest has | :13:35. | :13:40. | |
been jailed for 12 years for sexually assaulting children in | :13:41. | :13:44. | |
London in the 1970s and 1980s. The judge at Woolwich Crown Court said | :13:45. | :13:48. | |
Philip Temple, who is 66, was a wolf in shepherds clothing. | :13:49. | :13:54. | |
Some of Philip Temple's victims were in court to hear him sentenced to 12 | :13:55. | :13:59. | |
years in prison. The judge told them that his offending had spanned two | :14:00. | :14:03. | |
distinct phases in his life, firstly, when he worked in care | :14:04. | :14:07. | |
homes. The judge said he had exploited that employment to abuse | :14:08. | :14:11. | |
young and highly vulnerable children in his care. As to his actions as a | :14:12. | :14:15. | |
priest, he described him as a Will Phil Shepherd's clothing. He said | :14:16. | :14:21. | |
that the scale of Temple's offending was huge. He observed that some of | :14:22. | :14:24. | |
the victims had since died and so could not see him brought to | :14:25. | :14:29. | |
justice, and he said his remorse had come far too late for those who have | :14:30. | :14:30. | |
suffered at his hands. This is Outside Source. Our lead | :14:31. | :14:47. | |
story: A good day for Great Britain at the Olympic Games. At just 23 | :14:48. | :14:52. | |
years of age, Joe Clarke wins gold in the kayak K1. And in cycling, | :14:53. | :14:56. | |
Chris Froome, winner of the Tour de France, takes bronze in the time | :14:57. | :14:59. | |
trial. The gold went to the Swiss rider. | :15:00. | :15:04. | |
Penny share with you what the language services are covering the | :15:05. | :15:06. | |
newsroom. 12 newborn babies are reported to | :15:07. | :15:10. | |
have died in a fire at a maternity unit at one point with a's biggest | :15:11. | :15:14. | |
hospitals. Firefighters took three hours to put out the fire. Initial | :15:15. | :15:17. | |
investigations suggested an electrical fault was to blame. | :15:18. | :15:23. | |
600 Ferraris will be recalled in China because they have defective | :15:24. | :15:28. | |
airbags, according to China's state media. Earlier this month, Ferrari | :15:29. | :15:32. | |
said it was doing better than predicted in China as sales of | :15:33. | :15:36. | |
supercars in the country was rising. BBC Chinese has much more on that. | :15:37. | :15:42. | |
Thousands of documents have been leaked from Australia's offshore | :15:43. | :15:47. | |
detention centre on Nauru. The centre houses asylum seekers who | :15:48. | :15:51. | |
sought refuge in Australia. The Guardian newspaper release the | :15:52. | :15:53. | |
documents this morning. You can view them on their web by, and there are | :15:54. | :15:58. | |
plenty of them. Here are some quotes from their reporter, which were | :15:59. | :16:02. | |
written by members of staff at the detention centre. -- their report. | :16:03. | :16:20. | |
There are plenty more like that. I wanted some background on this | :16:21. | :16:27. | |
detention centre, so his boat to our correspondent Paul Adams. | :16:28. | :16:32. | |
It is one of two places that have been part of an evolving Australian | :16:33. | :16:37. | |
policy really designed to keep would-be refugees and migrants at | :16:38. | :16:40. | |
arms length. Partly informed by the need to prevent people from risking | :16:41. | :16:45. | |
their lives making risky journeys and see, but also, I think, in | :16:46. | :16:49. | |
response to a growing sense in Australia that Australia is not as | :16:50. | :16:54. | |
welcoming as it once was. If you think back to the 1970s, it was a | :16:55. | :16:57. | |
place where Vietnamese boat people, as they were called, were very | :16:58. | :17:01. | |
welcome. That position has hardened overtime to the point where since | :17:02. | :17:04. | |
that which successive Australian governments have now felt the need | :17:05. | :17:09. | |
to restrict the ability of people to arrive. So around 2001, following a | :17:10. | :17:13. | |
big episode with a Norwegian freighter with 450 Afghans on board, | :17:14. | :17:17. | |
a decision taken to try to put them somewhere else, and that is why you | :17:18. | :17:21. | |
had these deals struck with a tiny island nation of now Nauru, and also | :17:22. | :17:28. | |
with Papua New Guinea, where people would be processed. The government | :17:29. | :17:31. | |
changed the prose is a few years later, but in the past two years, | :17:32. | :17:34. | |
both camps have been reopened, and they are both now absolutely stuffed | :17:35. | :17:39. | |
full of people, 450 and Nauru, around 900 and Papua New Guinea, and | :17:40. | :17:43. | |
really, people with no prospects, because they are not wanted by the | :17:44. | :17:46. | |
government of ton-macro, nor by the stray liens, even though an | :17:47. | :17:49. | |
overwhelming number of migrants in these camps are bona fides refugees. | :17:50. | :17:55. | |
-- nor by the Australians, who should find some haven. They are not | :17:56. | :18:02. | |
going anywhere, and we are seeing camps run by a mixture of | :18:03. | :18:07. | |
Australians and local officials, really, as you see, descending into | :18:08. | :18:10. | |
a degree of vanity. The reason this is so interesting is | :18:11. | :18:14. | |
that information had previously been so hard to come by because of the | :18:15. | :18:18. | |
reasons you just explain. So why are people not talking about what is | :18:19. | :18:22. | |
happening right now? Partly because the Australian | :18:23. | :18:25. | |
government has passed a law making it illegal for unauthorised 's | :18:26. | :18:30. | |
closure of the practices in the camps. -- unauthorised disclosure. | :18:31. | :18:35. | |
We are seeing human rights organisations resorting to pretty | :18:36. | :18:40. | |
extraordinary lengths, Amnesty International sending people in | :18:41. | :18:43. | |
undercover to examine the situation. Journalists don't go very often. It | :18:44. | :18:46. | |
is a hard to get permission to go there. It is a little bit like | :18:47. | :18:52. | |
Guantanamo Bay. A very different set of circumstances, but a very | :18:53. | :18:55. | |
controlled environment in which it is very difficult for information to | :18:56. | :18:59. | |
get out, except the migrants and refugees themselves occasionally | :19:00. | :19:01. | |
send out the sorts of stories we have been reporting, very much at | :19:02. | :19:07. | |
the heart of the files and The Guardian. | :19:08. | :19:10. | |
Now, our worldview as will have to indulge me for a second. I was | :19:11. | :19:12. | |
talking about Joe Clarke, the British paddler, Hague gold medal in | :19:13. | :19:18. | |
the K1. Now, look at this. If you are looking there were -- if you are | :19:19. | :19:26. | |
a British viewer, you will be pleased to hear that Britain has won | :19:27. | :19:29. | |
a gold medal in the men's synchronised three metre | :19:30. | :19:32. | |
springboard. That's go back to Chris. These gold medals are like | :19:33. | :19:35. | |
buses! You will prolong time, and along come to! | :19:36. | :19:38. | |
They said they wanted to shock the world, the pair, Jack Laugher and | :19:39. | :19:46. | |
Chris Mears, and they have done just that. They came into this with | :19:47. | :19:49. | |
really good adult cancers, but no one really expected them to get the | :19:50. | :19:53. | |
gold, because the Chinese pair were so good, one of them going through | :19:54. | :19:57. | |
travel here, one in Beijing, one in London. They did look really good. | :19:58. | :20:00. | |
The wonderful thing about this victory as the pair really went for | :20:01. | :20:04. | |
it, the British pair. There is no need to apologise for the world. The | :20:05. | :20:07. | |
world needs to know. They saved their most difficult dives to last, | :20:08. | :20:12. | |
and perform them brilliantly, Valley execution and the synchronicity | :20:13. | :20:17. | |
right, and there is a wonderful back story to all of this, especially | :20:18. | :20:21. | |
concerning Chris Mears. In 2009, Chris Mears was close to death, I | :20:22. | :20:28. | |
think it is fair to say. He was rushed to hospital with the | :20:29. | :20:31. | |
Epstein-Barr virus. He lost his spleen, and it looked like life was | :20:32. | :20:35. | |
going to be hard enough for him to live, let alone reaching these | :20:36. | :20:38. | |
heights that he has done here in Rio in the last few moments. The diving | :20:39. | :20:44. | |
pool, just a few metres from here. They have not only one Briton's | :20:45. | :20:48. | |
first-ever diving gold, they have done it in really tough conditions. | :20:49. | :20:53. | |
You can see for yourself, it is windy, it is wet, the pressure is | :20:54. | :20:57. | |
on, they were facing a Chinese team going for a clean sweep of eight | :20:58. | :21:01. | |
medals. That will happen now. They were facing an American team there | :21:02. | :21:05. | |
were also diving very well but could not quite reached their height. And | :21:06. | :21:09. | |
to interesting subplots here, the Russians clearly unhappy with the | :21:10. | :21:13. | |
way they were being marked, but I must say, to me, they're dives did | :21:14. | :21:19. | |
look good and the Mark Sleboda shade low. The Brazilians were awful in | :21:20. | :21:23. | |
terms of their diving, really, when you consider the standard out there, | :21:24. | :21:27. | |
and the local fans were not happy with the low marks they received, | :21:28. | :21:30. | |
but the story tonight, and it is worthy of it being a global story, | :21:31. | :21:34. | |
is that Great Britain have their first ever gold medal, and in Jack | :21:35. | :21:39. | |
Laugher and Chris Mears, have stars that will be around for a long time. | :21:40. | :21:44. | |
They will certainly be in Tokyo, all being well. | :21:45. | :21:46. | |
Anyone who can beat the Chinese must be something special. The green | :21:47. | :21:50. | |
waters of the diving pool obviously suit them! We were talking earlier | :21:51. | :21:54. | |
about legacy. We have dandruff and Tom Daley in the pool. -- Dan | :21:55. | :22:03. | |
Goodfellow and Tom Daley. And this, another gold, so certainly the | :22:04. | :22:07. | |
diving team benefiting from those resources they got in London? | :22:08. | :22:10. | |
Yes, they are absolutely benefiting from them, and I think what they are | :22:11. | :22:16. | |
benefiting from, in actual truth, is not so much the work may be that UK | :22:17. | :22:22. | |
Sport have done, and the lottery funding they have received, although | :22:23. | :22:25. | |
they have received millions of pounds. But this is the Tom Daley | :22:26. | :22:31. | |
effect. Isn't it nice - no disrespect to Tom Daley gas but to | :22:32. | :22:36. | |
be able to talk about diving and diving success without mentioning | :22:37. | :22:38. | |
his name? Even though I have just done it. Reason people were inspired | :22:39. | :22:45. | |
with diving was because Tom Daley became a world champion, and being | :22:46. | :22:48. | |
such a well spoken public figure, not only in popular culture as well, | :22:49. | :22:55. | |
taking part in TV shows, really embracing his role as an ambassador | :22:56. | :23:00. | |
for the sport. So the money has been invested, they invested it in Tom, | :23:01. | :23:04. | |
Tom did not let them down, and I guess what you are seeing now is the | :23:05. | :23:08. | |
harvest of that, and it is our first Olympic gold medal for Great | :23:09. | :23:14. | |
Britain. So, again, UK Sport will be very pleased indeed. A good day for | :23:15. | :23:16. | |
them. I think I called Tom Daley tom | :23:17. | :23:21. | |
Brady. I certainly will not get the gold for that! | :23:22. | :23:26. | |
Let's turn to business. American burger chain Wendy's has been hit by | :23:27. | :23:30. | |
falling sales and earnings. Despite a drop in food costs, restaurants | :23:31. | :23:34. | |
are struggling to keep prices low and comply with minimum wage | :23:35. | :23:41. | |
increases. Let's talk to Samira Hussain in New York. We don't talk a | :23:42. | :23:46. | |
lot about Wendy's and US burger joint, but how big is this fast food | :23:47. | :23:50. | |
market in the US? It is absolutely huge. Think about | :23:51. | :23:53. | |
some of the household names here in America, you have got Wendy's, | :23:54. | :24:02. | |
McDonald's, Burger King, Dunkin doughnuts, and there is a trend | :24:03. | :24:05. | |
within the fast-food industry that many of the companies I have just | :24:06. | :24:08. | |
mentioned have been seeing some slower sales, and that is very | :24:09. | :24:12. | |
variety of reasons. One, it is the advent of something we call "Fast | :24:13. | :24:17. | |
casual", these newer kind of restaurants that show healthier | :24:18. | :24:22. | |
options which are really becoming popular with the millennial 's. So, | :24:23. | :24:27. | |
one company, actually, a burger joint that just reported its | :24:28. | :24:32. | |
earnings, is Shake Shack. They also fall into this fast casual round, | :24:33. | :24:35. | |
because they offer healthier options, even though it is a burger | :24:36. | :24:41. | |
joint. Their meat is made free of antibiotics. Unfortunately, they are | :24:42. | :24:44. | |
also plagued by some of the problems we are seeing in the fast-food | :24:45. | :24:48. | |
industry, that there is stiffer competition coming from grocery | :24:49. | :24:51. | |
store chains that are now offering ready-made foods. | :24:52. | :24:54. | |
A similar thing happening here in the UK as well. I wonder, do they | :24:55. | :24:58. | |
get swamped by the Giants? I think we can mention Burger King and | :24:59. | :25:02. | |
McDonald's. Everyone knows who they are. Do they swamped the market? | :25:03. | :25:06. | |
Well, if you are comparing them to fast casual restaurants, not | :25:07. | :25:11. | |
necessarily. Of course, they are still absolute giants, but what | :25:12. | :25:14. | |
investors want to see is growth and growth ten shall, and where they are | :25:15. | :25:20. | |
seeing a lot of that happening is in companies like Chipotle or Shake | :25:21. | :25:27. | |
Shack, and so you are seeing a big giants like even McDonald's are | :25:28. | :25:31. | |
having to change, bringing on new menu items, things that are | :25:32. | :25:34. | |
seemingly more healthy, having discussions about their meat being | :25:35. | :25:38. | |
hormone free or antibiotic free, so a real sense that the changes within | :25:39. | :25:42. | |
customers is really pushing the change in these big giants. | :25:43. | :25:49. | |
Samira, thank you. Good to see you. Plenty more to come, including | :25:50. | :25:52. | |
reactions to things that Donald Trump has been saying. Stay with us | :25:53. | :25:53. | |
for that. | :25:54. | :25:58. |
