:00:28. > :00:29.A week after Iraqi forces say they liberated the city

:00:35. > :00:37.IS militants still control parts of the

:00:41. > :00:53.The bridge - Sweden's open door to the rest of Europe closes

:00:54. > :00:55.for business to stop the flow of migrants.

:00:56. > :00:57.This is one of the most welcoming countries in Europe.

:01:20. > :01:29.I wonder if these guys ever do the cooking at home.

:01:30. > :01:31.It is more than a week since the Iraqi

:01:32. > :01:33.government forces announced they had won the battle for Ramadi,

:01:34. > :01:37.liberating the key city from so-called Islamic

:01:38. > :01:40.But large parts are still under extremist control and fighting

:01:41. > :01:44.Around 200 militants are thought to be holding out,

:01:45. > :01:47.as thousands of civilians flee the violence.

:01:48. > :01:50.The BBC was the first international broadcaster to reach

:01:51. > :01:54.Our reporter travelled into the heart of

:01:55. > :02:00.the city and sent this exclusive report.

:02:01. > :02:01.This is what the fight against so-called

:02:02. > :02:07.Six months of brutal jihadi rule, a government offensive and coalition

:02:08. > :02:12.air strikes have devastated the city.

:02:13. > :02:15.We set off with Iraqi special forces to see what the victory they claimed

:02:16. > :02:22.As we push into the centre, it is clear

:02:23. > :02:27.the battle for Ramadi is far from over.

:02:28. > :02:32.This is the front line in Iraq's war against IS.

:02:33. > :02:43.The soldiers say they have regained much of the city,

:02:44. > :02:46.but the fight is still going on and IS militants still control

:02:47. > :02:51.Their flags are still flying a few hundred yards

:02:52. > :03:01.Peer through the sniper's window and you see the Iraqi flag.

:03:02. > :03:07.The black banners of Islamic State are flying, defiant.

:03:08. > :03:12.Government troops say fighting IS is the hardest of all battles.

:03:13. > :03:14.Much of the front line is rigged with

:03:15. > :03:19.explosives and IS is an unpredictable enemy.

:03:20. > :03:22.The west has trained Iraqi soldiers for this

:03:23. > :03:26.The US, Britain and their partners are conducting air strikes

:03:27. > :03:32.TRANSLATION: The support from coalition forces is important

:03:33. > :03:41.because without them we would suffer a lot more casualties.

:03:42. > :03:43.An air strike is called in as families emerge,

:03:44. > :03:52.This woman says her house was blown up.

:03:53. > :03:55.She told me she and her husband were taken by the jihadis and used

:03:56. > :04:02.TRANSLATION: We were stuck for ten days, each time

:04:03. > :04:04.there was bombing our homes would shake.

:04:05. > :04:13.A warm meal and a first taste of freedom.

:04:14. > :04:19.This woman escaped with her children, still traumatised.

:04:20. > :04:21.The mother tells me how IS ruled their

:04:22. > :04:28.You were not allowed out without a man and you were forced

:04:29. > :04:33.We were not allowed to use mobile phones.

:04:34. > :04:38.But the war against Islamic State in Iraq will not end

:04:39. > :04:45.There will be more fighting as soldiers prepare to move

:04:46. > :04:50.As Islamic State loses control in parts of Iraq and Syria,

:04:51. > :04:59.it is widening its influence in other areas.

:05:00. > :05:06.The Swedish Deputy Prime Minister shed tears as she announced new

:05:07. > :05:10.border controls. The bridge crossing from Sweden to Denmark made famous

:05:11. > :05:15.by the TV crime drama at the bridge will no longer be open for business

:05:16. > :05:20.as usual. As Jenny Hill reports, the decision has caused unease in

:05:21. > :05:26.Sweden. This is a country which likes to get on with its neighbours.

:05:27. > :05:34.The bridge is a link to Denmark and an open door to the rest of Europe.

:05:35. > :05:39.Not any more. For the first time in 50 years, there are controls at the

:05:40. > :05:43.border. Trains are re-routed, commuters delayed, refugees turned

:05:44. > :05:53.away. No one without a passport get in. Here is why. 160,000 refugees

:05:54. > :05:58.arrived last year. Sweden is running out of room. This tent city was

:05:59. > :06:03.hastily built just a few weeks ago. These tents are destined for

:06:04. > :06:08.disaster zones overseas, right now Sweden is having to use them to do

:06:09. > :06:12.with the crisis right here on its own doorstep. This is one of the

:06:13. > :06:18.most welcoming countries in Europe when it comes to refugees, but that

:06:19. > :06:23.is starting to change. Who knows what that means for Javid. He hopes

:06:24. > :06:27.his wife and children will join him from Afghanistan. Sweden, he tells

:06:28. > :06:33.us, has been good to him. People have given you clothes. The border

:06:34. > :06:38.controls are said to be temporary. Some fear they will do permanent

:06:39. > :06:40.damage. This is supposed to be the Schengen zone, where European

:06:41. > :06:50.citizens have the right to borderless travel. No wonder

:06:51. > :06:53.perhaps, the Deputy premise to shed tears as the decision was announced.

:06:54. > :07:01.The decision she described as terrible. It has gone down badly

:07:02. > :07:05.here as well. The people in this coffee shop told us they have

:07:06. > :07:11.friends, jobs, even homes just across the bridge in Copenhagen. I

:07:12. > :07:16.had a nightmare the other day that I went to Copenhagen to shop and I

:07:17. > :07:22.didn't have any passport and I was like how am I supposed to come home?

:07:23. > :07:29.I think we are going in the wrong direction. I think we probably

:07:30. > :07:34.should be more into the soul of Sweden and be more welcoming. I

:07:35. > :07:39.don't think there will be adding the situation is the way to do it. As

:07:40. > :07:44.Sweden struggles with its decision, the refugee crisis continues to

:07:45. > :07:53.divide Europe. Exposing its borders, perhaps even changing its horizons.

:07:54. > :07:57.Finally, the biggest TV shows in South Korea are about cooking and

:07:58. > :08:02.the stars are men. A lot has changed in the last few years. Male

:08:03. > :08:04.dominated kitchens would have been to boot. Stephen Evans has been

:08:05. > :08:12.finding out if more men in the kitchen has brought changes for

:08:13. > :08:24.South Korean women. Turn on the TV in South Korea and easy these days

:08:25. > :08:30.is men in the kitchen. Move through the channels and male celebrity

:08:31. > :08:36.chefs dominate the ratings. Sam Kim is a star in the studio and in his

:08:37. > :08:41.own restaurant. If you want to spend time with family, if you go

:08:42. > :08:48.somewhere public, everyone comes to see me and they want to take a

:08:49. > :08:54.picture together. If I go outside, everyone wants me. The rise of meal

:08:55. > :09:00.cooking shows how this very traditional country is changing

:09:01. > :09:09.fast. This is a cooking competition for men. This man is 65. He had a

:09:10. > :09:13.spell working abroad what his family stayed home in Korea so he did what

:09:14. > :09:22.his father never did, he learned to cook. In the past in Korea men or

:09:23. > :09:31.boys could not approach the kitchen and they didn't know how to cook.

:09:32. > :09:37.Men cannot live without a wife. Men in Abrams is one sign of changing

:09:38. > :09:41.gender roles as South Korea modernisers, traditional ideas of

:09:42. > :09:51.what men should do and what women should do our changing. Men, what a

:09:52. > :09:54.performance. Always cooking the big meet for the special occasion. I

:09:55. > :10:02.wonder if these guys ever do the cooking at home. While the men

:10:03. > :10:06.compete at cooking, the women state next door looking after the

:10:07. > :10:12.children. Young women not get jobs and work just as much as men. The

:10:13. > :10:21.figures show that when they reach 30, they leave work to have

:10:22. > :10:33.children. More men in the kitchen doesn't it mean more women in top

:10:34. > :10:36.jobs in business. That's all for this week. From me and the home team

:10:37. > :10:47.in London, goodbye.
