:00:09. > :00:11.Hello, I'm Philippa Thomas, this is Outside Source.
:00:12. > :00:13.We'll start with the historic European Space Agency
:00:14. > :00:19.This is the moment that scientists received confirmation
:00:20. > :00:21.that their probe has entered the planet's atmosphere,
:00:22. > :00:28.but there's still no confirmation that it landed safely.
:00:29. > :00:30.The exodus from Mosul has started, with civilians trying to escape.
:00:31. > :00:33.We have the latest on the fight to retake the Iraqi city,
:00:34. > :00:36.and the people trapped in the middle.
:00:37. > :00:39.We'll be live in Las Vegas, where Donald Trump and Hillary
:00:40. > :00:42.Clinton are meeting in the final Presidential debate.
:00:43. > :00:45.And if you want to get in touch at any time,
:00:46. > :01:06.you can email on os@bbc.co.uk or on Twitter.
:01:07. > :01:09.Scientists at the European Space Agency are waiting anxiously to find
:01:10. > :01:12.out whether they've successfully landed a small robot
:01:13. > :01:22.Let me bring up some copy coming into the newsroom on this.
:01:23. > :01:24.A senior European Space Agency official says that the signal
:01:25. > :01:26.from the experimental Schiaparelli probe cut off
:01:27. > :01:30.before its landing on Mars, which he says isn't a good sign.
:01:31. > :01:35.We're now expecting the next update on Thursday.
:01:36. > :01:37.Mark McCaughrean is one of the scientists waiting
:01:38. > :01:49.The BBC's Pallab Ghosh has been watching events unfold in Damstadt,
:01:50. > :02:09.Let's go to him now. We saw that celebration, then glum faces, and we
:02:10. > :02:15.are still on a knife edge. Well, the celebrations were for the orbiting
:02:16. > :02:18.spacecraft entering orbit. What we don't know is about the other half
:02:19. > :02:24.of the mission, in some ways the more important part of the mission,
:02:25. > :02:27.the lander. What we know is that the Schiaparelli Lander is on the
:02:28. > :02:32.Martian surface. What we don't know is whether it's in one piece not
:02:33. > :02:36.because, as you said, the signal cut-off one minute before landing.
:02:37. > :02:42.So, scientists don't know what happened. But it is worrying that
:02:43. > :02:47.they haven't been able to confirm the safe landing from two separate
:02:48. > :02:50.sources. So there are a lot of gloomy faces here, a lot of
:02:51. > :02:56.scientists think that they are fearing the worst but we won't have
:02:57. > :03:00.absolute confirmation until tomorrow or a few days' time. It is in great
:03:01. > :03:04.news in terms of the lander at the moment. Just remind us why that
:03:05. > :03:12.last-minute mattered so much as make it would've been going at tremendous
:03:13. > :03:18.speeds. Mars does not have much of an atmosphere. So the lander had a
:03:19. > :03:24.parachute but in order to slow down sufficiently in the last few parts
:03:25. > :03:29.of the dissent, it needed to fire thrusters. Possibly, those thrusters
:03:30. > :03:34.either didn't fire at or properly. The worry as it might have gone down
:03:35. > :03:40.too fast and hit the ground very fast which is why we didn't get that
:03:41. > :03:44.signal at that time. Equally, it might just be a communications
:03:45. > :03:49.failure. They haven't got the data to make the call just yet. They will
:03:50. > :03:52.be poring over more data that will be gathering from the orbiting
:03:53. > :03:55.spacecraft overnight. There will be a press conference tomorrow morning,
:03:56. > :04:01.and they will explain what they think might have happened. But most
:04:02. > :04:06.people in the know don't imagine that there could be very many
:04:07. > :04:11.optimistic scenarios. They fear that this test of the landing system
:04:12. > :04:16.hasn't gone completely to plan. That's important because it was a
:04:17. > :04:20.test for emission in four years' time whether European Space Agency
:04:21. > :04:26.planned to land a rover on Martian surface. Its job is to go along and
:04:27. > :04:35.drill under the surface to try to find signs of life. The landing
:04:36. > :04:39.didn't work today, it puts a little? -- a little question about whether
:04:40. > :04:43.scientists will get their mission funded in four years' time. We are
:04:44. > :04:46.getting ahead of ourselves, we will find out more tomorrow morning but
:04:47. > :04:51.there is a lot of pessimism around right now. Thank you. We will keep
:04:52. > :04:53.across that story. The battle for the White House
:04:54. > :04:56.is barrelling toward the end, with the candidates set for a final
:04:57. > :04:59.head to head encounter in Las Vegas. The primetime showdown
:05:00. > :05:01.is an opportunity for Donald Trump to reverse losses he's had
:05:02. > :05:04.in the polls. This is the BBC poll
:05:05. > :05:08.of polls, currently giving Part of the sideshow
:05:09. > :05:16.for tonight's debate is guests. Donald Trump is bringing
:05:17. > :05:20.Malik Obama, the president's half-brother who said he'd
:05:21. > :05:25.support the Republican. Meg Whitman is a guest
:05:26. > :05:28.on the Democrat side, Chief Executive of Hewlett Packard,
:05:29. > :05:33.one of the highest-profile people to switch support to Hillary Clinton
:05:34. > :05:39.from the Republican camp. Let's talk to Katty Kay,
:05:40. > :05:52.there for us in Vegas I want to look at Hillary Clinton
:05:53. > :05:57.because we've talked so much about Donald Trump. Where do you think
:05:58. > :06:04.she's vulnerable? I think she is vulnerable to all these accusations,
:06:05. > :06:08.the drip trip accusations about e-mail server, that she was somehow
:06:09. > :06:12.corrupt, that she was secretive, that she isn't telling the American
:06:13. > :06:16.public the truth, that she is old news, she's too political,
:06:17. > :06:20.calculated and cautious, driven by focus groups. Those are the
:06:21. > :06:24.reservations American voters have about her and we are in this
:06:25. > :06:29.remarkable position where people are still making up their mind this late
:06:30. > :06:32.in the game with 20 days to go, thank goodness, until the election.
:06:33. > :06:36.Not because they don't know enough about these candidates but because
:06:37. > :06:41.they don't like either of them and Hillary Clinton is definitely
:06:42. > :06:44.somebody who some voters are saying reluctantly I will vote for her
:06:45. > :06:49.because Donald Trump isn't acceptable but then not enthusiastic
:06:50. > :06:53.about her. So we have these two historically unpopular candidates
:06:54. > :06:56.and she's one of them. Let me throw in another calculation. They
:06:57. > :07:00.thinking not just about the presidential campaign but who will
:07:01. > :07:05.control Congress. Democrats are very keen on their chances improving
:07:06. > :07:09.there. Well, particularly in the Senate, which is close at the
:07:10. > :07:14.moment. The Democrats have a stronger chance of picking up enough
:07:15. > :07:18.Senate races on November the 8th that they could swing the Senate
:07:19. > :07:22.from Republican to Democrat. There has been some talk here recently of
:07:23. > :07:27.the idea of what we call a wave election, an election that's just
:07:28. > :07:30.sweeps through the White House, the Senate and the House of
:07:31. > :07:34.Representatives, and would switch the House of Representatives from
:07:35. > :07:38.being solidly Republican to being democratic. That is a scenario that
:07:39. > :07:44.might take place of Donald Trump proves so unpopular that people vote
:07:45. > :07:50.for their congressman based on Donald Trump's unpopularity. It's
:07:51. > :07:53.hard to see that happening, it's hard to see the House of
:07:54. > :07:56.Representatives becoming democratic. If it did and Hillary Clinton was
:07:57. > :08:02.elected to the presidency, that would give an enormous amount of
:08:03. > :08:06.power, power not seen since Barack Obama took over in 2008. Let's go
:08:07. > :08:15.back to Donald Trump and what he has to do tonight. He either has to go
:08:16. > :08:19.nasty or presidential. Yes, his last debate, he went nasty. The first
:08:20. > :08:23.debate, he tried the presidential route. His supporters like it when
:08:24. > :08:28.he goes nasty. If his tactic is to keep on rallying his base, which is
:08:29. > :08:32.what he's saying in his rallies and in his Twitter feed and Thai raids
:08:33. > :08:35.against Hillary Clinton and the system and establishment, even
:08:36. > :08:42.against his own party, his priority seems to be to talk to those people
:08:43. > :08:45.who are his die-hard supporters, the Donald Trump base, you can call
:08:46. > :08:52.them. If that is what he wants to do, why would he go presidential?
:08:53. > :08:55.His tactic is fence, attack Hillary Clinton, go after Bill Clinton, and
:08:56. > :09:00.the people who have accused Bill Clinton of sexual harassment, go
:09:01. > :09:04.after the media, talk about the rigged system. You're more likely to
:09:05. > :09:07.see that Donald Trump than one that emerges at this late stage in the
:09:08. > :09:13.game with a much more presidential demeanour. Thank you very much, live
:09:14. > :09:17.from Las Vegas. The debates are already having a real impact in the
:09:18. > :09:27.States where early voting is under way. Here's one I made earlier. The
:09:28. > :09:30.influence any individual state has as measured by the number of
:09:31. > :09:35.electors it is allocated, which is tied to the number of people who
:09:36. > :09:40.live there. Take a popular state like California. It has 55 electoral
:09:41. > :09:45.votes. South Dakota, with its population of less than 1 million,
:09:46. > :09:49.has just three. If a candidate wins a state, even by just one vote, they
:09:50. > :09:54.gain all the electoral college votes in that state. The only exceptions
:09:55. > :10:01.to the rule our main and Nebraska, where the electoral College votes
:10:02. > :10:08.are split proportionately. In total, you have 588 -- 538 electors to gain
:10:09. > :10:13.the majority, to win the election, you have to win 270 votes. That is
:10:14. > :10:21.the all-important number to keeping your mind on election night. So,
:10:22. > :10:23.votes secured, rest easy for the President-elect? Not exactly.
:10:24. > :10:29.Whoever wins the White House will have to work with Congress. And that
:10:30. > :10:33.is the Senate and House of Representatives. At the moment, both
:10:34. > :10:36.houses are controlled by the Republicans but with the entire
:10:37. > :10:42.house and one third of the seats in the Senate up for election, both
:10:43. > :10:47.could change hands. So, this time, everything is at stake in
:10:48. > :10:52.Washington's balance of power. Stay with us. We will bring you the
:10:53. > :10:54.latest on some of the new arrivals from the Calais jungle camp.
:10:55. > :10:57.Age checks on child migrants arriving in the UK will be carried
:10:58. > :11:04.Downing Street has said it would have been "inappropriate"
:11:05. > :11:07.for Theresa May to have acted on stories about tensions
:11:08. > :11:10.within the child sexual abuse inquiry when she was Home Secretary.
:11:11. > :11:16.Dame Lowell Goddard stepped down this summer amid allegations she had
:11:17. > :11:20.But concerns about her conduct were raised months beforehand.
:11:21. > :11:27.Political Correspondent Vicki Young has more.
:11:28. > :11:32.But we were told Theresa May only knew at the end of July there had
:11:33. > :11:36.been problems. Today we were told she knew earlier about tensions
:11:37. > :11:42.between panel members and Dame Lowell Goddard. There were stories
:11:43. > :11:47.around about the inquiry and about individuals related to the inquiry.
:11:48. > :11:53.But the Home Secretary cannot intervene on the basis of suspicion,
:11:54. > :11:56.rumour or hearsay. Downing Street insists there's no way the Home
:11:57. > :12:00.Secretary could have intervened as there had been a formal complaint or
:12:01. > :12:09.clear evidence of wrongdoing, which they say there wasn't in this case.

:13:37. > :13:38.The BBC's Danny Vincent has this update, and just a warning,
:13:39. > :13:47.there is some flash photography in his report.
:13:48. > :13:54.Another week, another Hong Kong swearing-in ceremony. Last week,
:13:55. > :13:57.three lawmakers oaths to the government rejected. Today was their
:13:58. > :14:03.second chance to pledge their allegiance. Instead, more chaos
:14:04. > :14:10.ensued. This time from the pro-Beijing camp. A mass walk-out
:14:11. > :14:16.triggering an end to the session. Inside, a mini parliament paralysed.
:14:17. > :14:24.These two colleagues were prevented from swearing-in. I am not the one
:14:25. > :14:34.who should apologise to the lawmakers. The lawmakers are the one
:14:35. > :14:37.who are betraying Hong Kong. Last week, the newly elected activists
:14:38. > :14:49.used the swearing-in ceremony as a stage for protest. Today, a protest
:14:50. > :14:54.against the would-be lawmakers. TRANSLATION: They can't be our
:14:55. > :15:00.legislators because they are the running dogs of Japan. It is an
:15:01. > :15:08.insult to Chinese people living in Hong Kong. It is an insult to 1.3
:15:09. > :15:14.billion Chinese people. Hong Kong is moving into new political territory.
:15:15. > :15:20.Some want more independence from the China government. Others see this as
:15:21. > :15:26.an opportunity. They have gone too far and they owe us an apology. They
:15:27. > :15:32.actually provoke a lot of Hong Kong people because... And, also, they
:15:33. > :15:41.are also provoking all Chinese people. So they do owe us an
:15:42. > :15:45.apology. For now, Hong Kong is in the middle of a political deadlock.
:15:46. > :15:48.Two weeks, two suspensions of the Council and the future of two

:15:57. > :15:58.The UK government has ruled out using dental checks to verify
:15:59. > :16:00.the age of child migrants arriving from Calais.
:16:01. > :16:03.There is concern that some of those entering Britain are adults.
:16:04. > :16:06.The most recent statistics show that during the past 12 month period,
:16:07. > :16:09.there were just over 2,000 decisions involving claims from

:17:51. > :17:55.I am not in favour of allowing people in their 20s to say I'm

:19:22. > :19:25.In the three months to September the Chinese economy grew
:19:26. > :19:28.at 6.7%, the same rate as the two previous quarters.
:19:29. > :19:31.There are some signs that the push towards a consumer driven economy,
:19:32. > :19:35.rather than one driven by government investment, is working,
:19:36. > :19:44.but as Robin Brant explains, it's not an easy transition.
:19:45. > :19:52.Well, it is still growing but still slowing is the overall picture. What
:19:53. > :19:56.we have is an economy where there is evidence that the Chinese
:19:57. > :20:01.government, through its policies, seems to be stabilising the big
:20:02. > :20:08.picture, and managing to shift away from an investment led economy,
:20:09. > :20:12.focusing on exports, and towards a more consumption led domestically
:20:13. > :20:18.driven economy. Consumption accounted for 70% of growth in the
:20:19. > :20:21.last quarter. That is a big jump on the summer period in the year
:20:22. > :20:26.before. So that is something the Chinese government will be very
:20:27. > :20:29.happy about. Dig a bit deeper and it's a familiar story.
:20:30. > :20:33.Infrastructure investment from central government taking up in that
:20:34. > :20:38.same three-month period. That's evidence yet again that perhaps the
:20:39. > :20:42.significant fuel in this engine of growth is still money coming from
:20:43. > :20:46.central government, and being filtered down to provincial
:20:47. > :20:49.government in big infrastructure projects, which is something that
:20:50. > :20:54.China is trying to move away from but not too quickly because, of
:20:55. > :20:55.course, here in Communist China, government spending is still so, so
:20:56. > :20:59.dominant. Hollywood star Leonardo DiCaprio has
:21:00. > :21:01.offered to help US authorities in their corruption probe
:21:02. > :21:03.into Malaysia's state Apparently Leo found out from news
:21:04. > :21:07.reports that both his charitable foundation and the movie The Wolf
:21:08. > :21:11.of Wall Street in which he starred could have used money siphoned
:21:12. > :21:24.from the fund. Let's get more now. Tell us more
:21:25. > :21:29.about this story. Well, as soon as Leonardo DiCaprio found out that it
:21:30. > :21:36.was possible there was a connection between him, the film and his
:21:37. > :21:40.charitable organisation and 1MDB, he quickly contacted authorities to let
:21:41. > :21:45.them know he is cooperating with any sort of investigation and is willing
:21:46. > :21:51.to give back any money or any other gifts that he or his foundation may
:21:52. > :21:55.have received as a result from 1MDB. You will remember this is a fund
:21:56. > :22:02.that was part of a massive financial scandal. There are allegations of
:22:03. > :22:06.money-laundering through this fund. And, apparently, the US Department

:22:34. > :22:35.The main source of that tension, the long disputed
:22:36. > :22:39.More recently it has led to some of the worst fighting between Indian
:22:40. > :22:45.But it shows itself in all sorts of ways,
:22:46. > :22:50.A few weeks ago, the Indian Producers Association banned
:22:51. > :22:55.all Pakistani actors from working in Bollywood.
:22:56. > :23:02.Now, Karan Johar, a popular Indian director has promised not to work

:23:12. > :23:24.Initially, the Indian motion pictures producers association had
:23:25. > :23:28.said that any film shot completely before this ban implemented wouldn't
:23:29. > :23:32.be affected. This video statement released now comes because of
:23:33. > :23:39.political pressure from a right wing political party. They've threatened
:23:40. > :23:45.physical damage on any singer Marks in the state of Marr are struck who
:23:46. > :23:49.show this film starting next Friday. It is a romantic drama, Ae Dil Hai
:23:50. > :23:54.Mushkil, but it is being tangled up in the dispute with Kashmir. Up
:23:55. > :23:58.until now, Karan Johar was adamant he would release the film as it was
:23:59. > :24:02.and wasn't willing to apologise or make any statement about this but
:24:03. > :24:06.there's a lot of finances at stake. If Ae Dil Hai Mushkil doesn't
:24:07. > :24:11.release next week, the big studios like 20th Century Fox will all incur
:24:12. > :24:15.a lot of fines. Presumably, he is very prominent but there will be
:24:16. > :24:20.other directors and films that could be affected. Yes. He has another
:24:21. > :24:27.production next month which features another Pakistani artists, one of
:24:28. > :24:31.the biggest actors in Bollywood. The fear is that if they give into this
:24:32. > :24:34.sort of pressure this time round, those films will face similar
:24:35. > :24:39.complications. What has the public reaction been to this? Does
:24:40. > :24:44.everybody feel he was right to give in or do they think he's fallen foul
:24:45. > :24:48.of bullying? The reaction is next. The political party are not willing
:24:49. > :24:55.to accept this indirect apology. They say it is too little, too late
:24:56. > :24:59.from Karan Johar himself. His fans are disappointed he has given into
:25:00. > :25:05.the pressure. Some say he has been bullied, say he has given up his
:25:06. > :25:10.freedom of expression. If food outlet in Malaysia has been asked to
:25:11. > :25:16.rename its products to keep their Halliwell standard. It adopted the

:25:33. > :25:37.we were talking about a few minutes ago. That'll run overnight, whether
:25:38. > :25:46.you're watching the BBC here in the UK or on BBC world News abroad, it
:25:47. > :25:49.starts at 1am, and it is the last of the three tense encounters between
:25:50. > :25:55.Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump. So that is something you can watch or
:25:56. > :26:00.catch up with when you wake up. We will be live from outside Brussels
:26:01. > :26:02.on Thursday. Two things for you for your diary. Thank you very much for
:26:03. > :26:12.watching. Good evening. It is world weather
