:00:00. > :00:08.Hello it's Monday, it's 9 o'clock, I'm Victoria Derbyshire,

:00:09. > :00:19.welcome to the programme We'll bring you the details shortly.

:00:20. > :00:24.The parents of Charlie Gard are to return to court today. They've been

:00:25. > :00:30.victims of a backlash from some members of the public, they say,

:00:31. > :00:34.after Great Ormond Street Hospital revealed staff received death

:00:35. > :00:38.threats. Threats have been made against the judiciary and medical

:00:39. > :00:44.staff at Great Ormond Street Hospital. Under no possible

:00:45. > :00:50.circumstances whatsoever does any member of Charlie's family or any of

:00:51. > :00:58.Charlie's true supporters condone any such action.

:00:59. > :01:06.We have discovered that new powers to curb dock attacks haven't been

:01:07. > :01:11.working. We'll talk to the family of a three-year-old girl mauled after

:01:12. > :01:15.five doings broke into her garden. And it's 50 years since gay sex was

:01:16. > :01:24.decriminalised but how much has changed and how close are we to

:01:25. > :01:32.achieving true equality? We demand the same rights. No more, no less.

:01:33. > :01:39.The same rights as other ordinary, civilised human beings.

:01:40. > :01:47.We'll talk to Peter Tatchell and George Montagu, convicted of gross

:01:48. > :01:51.indecency with a man in the 70s and describes himself as the oldest gay

:01:52. > :01:53.in the village and a woman who's only just come out, about how much

:01:54. > :02:03.as changed. Hello.

:02:04. > :02:05.welcome to the programme, Throughout the programme the latest

:02:06. > :02:10.breaking news and developing stories...a little later we'll

:02:11. > :02:13.celebrate two amazing British England's women beat India

:02:14. > :02:27.to the Cricket World Cup. Absolutely amazing. I took my kids

:02:28. > :02:32.there. So many kids there, it was brilliant. A great atmosphere.

:02:33. > :02:35.And we'll be asking why this Brit - Chris Frome, the 4 times

:02:36. > :02:38.tour de france winner - isn't receiving the love

:02:39. > :02:40.Is he Britain's least popular greatest sportsman?

:02:41. > :02:44.Do get in touch on all the stories we're talking about this morning -

:02:45. > :02:47.use the hashtag Victoria LIVE and If you text, you will be charged

:02:48. > :02:57.The parents of Charlie Gard return to the court today as the court

:02:58. > :03:02.consider new evidence from a US neurologist. They want to take their

:03:03. > :03:08.baby to the States for experimental treatment. Doctors at Great Ormond

:03:09. > :03:12.Street don't believe it will work and say the 11-month-old should be

:03:13. > :03:14.allowed to die with dignity. Tom Burridge is at

:03:15. > :03:23.the High Court for us. The court was supposed to sit this

:03:24. > :03:27.morning and it's been pushed back to this afternoon. Possibly a decision

:03:28. > :03:29.from tomorrow onwards, that might be pushed back because we are not

:03:30. > :03:35.seeing the court sitting this morning. But I think a lot of the

:03:36. > :03:43.evidence will centre around testimony from this US Doctor Who

:03:44. > :03:47.claims that his treatment, a kind of therapy, has a 10% chance of

:03:48. > :03:51.improving the health of 11-month-old Charlie Gard. The judge will have to

:03:52. > :03:56.make that very difficult decision in what is a very sad case. The judge

:03:57. > :04:00.will have to decide, remember, whether or not to allow Chris and

:04:01. > :04:04.Connie, Charlie's parents, to allow them to take him to New York for

:04:05. > :04:08.experimental treatment or whether the judge decides, like the doctors

:04:09. > :04:11.at Great Ormond Street have been arguing, that the chances of any

:04:12. > :04:18.success from that treatment are so low that actually it's in Charlie's

:04:19. > :04:22.best interests for the life support system to be switched off and for

:04:23. > :04:28.him to be allowed the die with dignity. Tell us about the threats

:04:29. > :04:34.to the staff and the parents? Really sad again. On Saturday, Great Ormond

:04:35. > :04:39.Street Hospital released a statement saying that their staff, doctors and

:04:40. > :04:44.nurses, suffered a torrent of abuse, thousands of messages online, some

:04:45. > :04:47.verbal abuse in the street. Connie and Chris, Charlie's parents,

:04:48. > :04:52.released a short statement on Saturday saying they too suffered a

:04:53. > :04:55.lot of abuse. Then they released a longer statement yesterday evening,

:04:56. > :04:59.saying that actually, since the statement from Great Ormond Street

:05:00. > :05:03.on Saturday, they've suffered what they described as a backlash. They

:05:04. > :05:06.said they've suffered a lot of abuse, a lot of messages online. But

:05:07. > :05:11.they paid tribute, I think it's important to say, to the doctors and

:05:12. > :05:15.the staff at Great Ormond Street Hospital. They say ultimately their

:05:16. > :05:19.son wouldn't be alive today if it wasn't for the staff at Great Ormond

:05:20. > :05:22.Street Hospital. Both sides, the doctors and parents of young Charlie

:05:23. > :05:26.of course have his best interests at heart. But of course the judge over

:05:27. > :05:29.the next couple of days, possibly longer, will have to make that very

:05:30. > :05:33.difficult decision. Thank you very much.

:05:34. > :05:36.Rachel Schofield is in the BBC Newsroom with a summary

:05:37. > :05:41.The government is promising what it calls a revolution in the way

:05:42. > :05:42.electricity is generated, used and stored.

:05:43. > :05:47.The business secretary, Greg Clark, is to announce more investment

:05:48. > :05:50.in battery technology and details of a competition to

:05:51. > :05:56.Under the plans, it's thought households could save up

:05:57. > :06:09.Britain's economic forecast has been downgraded by the monetary fund due

:06:10. > :06:14.to a weaker performance at the start of the year. In April it was

:06:15. > :06:18.predicted the economy would grow 2%, that's been revised down to 1.7%.

:06:19. > :06:20.The Treasury says the report high lites the importance of a good

:06:21. > :06:23.Brexit deal with the EU. At least 24 people have been killed

:06:24. > :06:26.and more than 40 injured in a suicide bomb attack

:06:27. > :06:28.in the Afghan capital, Kabul. It's understood the attacker

:06:29. > :06:32.detonated the car bomb close to a bus carrying government

:06:33. > :06:35.employees in the west of the city. It's not yet clear who

:06:36. > :06:39.was behind the attack. Scientists say they're examining

:06:40. > :06:43.a potential breakthrough in the case of the missing Sheffield toddler,

:06:44. > :06:46.Ben Needham - who disappeared on the Greek island of Kos,

:06:47. > :06:48.26 years ago today. Human material has been found

:06:49. > :07:07.in soil samples gathered last Ben Needham was 21 months old when

:07:08. > :07:11.he disappeared on the island of Kos in July 1991. In the years that

:07:12. > :07:14.followed, men's mother Kerry pleaded with anyone that knows anything

:07:15. > :07:20.about her son's disappearance to come forward. Last October, an

:07:21. > :07:24.extensive 21-day search was conducted of land around the

:07:25. > :07:28.farmhouse where he was last seen in a second site close by after it

:07:29. > :07:35.emerged the toddler may have been crushed to death by a digger. And

:07:36. > :07:38.now, on the 26th anniversary of his disappearance, a possible

:07:39. > :07:41.breakthrough. Signs of blood have been found on items recovered by

:07:42. > :07:45.police during last year's search. Some of the items that we brought

:07:46. > :07:50.back, we submitted for further forensic work and the results of

:07:51. > :07:58.that to date, I am led to believe, show signs that there is some human

:07:59. > :08:04.decomposition around the items that that we brought back from Kos. A

:08:05. > :08:11.sandal and truck brought back are being tested in Aberdeen. 60 items

:08:12. > :08:15.were brought back for analysis. We are providing information that there

:08:16. > :08:21.is a strong indication from this chemical profile that we were able

:08:22. > :08:26.to ascertain, there is a strong indication this was present on the

:08:27. > :08:30.it Eames as a result of blood decomposition. South Yorkshire

:08:31. > :08:33.police hope this latest development will go some way in proving what

:08:34. > :08:50.happened to this little boy. Experts on Hutch are joining forces

:08:51. > :09:05.with Cancer Researchers to look at efforts to find a cure for the vie

:09:06. > :09:07.Ritz. At the science conference in Paris, experts believe -- a cure for

:09:08. > :09:11.Hutch. Detectives investigating the death

:09:12. > :09:13.of a young woman in south-west London have charged a 33-year-old

:09:14. > :09:16.man with murder, rape and kidnap. The 19-year-old's body was found

:09:17. > :09:19.at a house in Kingston on Wednesday. The man is also accused

:09:20. > :09:21.of raping another woman. A second man has been

:09:22. > :09:28.charged with kidnap. The BBC has learned that 80% of NHS

:09:29. > :09:32.areas in England are failing to meet the government's two week processing

:09:33. > :09:34.target for women to receive It means less than half of women

:09:35. > :09:38.receive their results NHS England said it is working

:09:39. > :09:44.to reduce a "backlog" caused by a forthcoming change to the way

:09:45. > :10:03.it carries out cervical screening. Community Protection notices, ASBOs

:10:04. > :10:07.for doings, were brought in three years ago. They give police and

:10:08. > :10:11.local authorities more powers to demand doing owners take steps to

:10:12. > :10:16.control their animals' behaviour. More than three quarters of the 311

:10:17. > :10:20.councils who responded to our Freedom of Information request have

:10:21. > :10:29.not issued a single notice since they were introduced. The ding The

:10:30. > :10:33.Duke of Cambridge has revealed how he tells his children stories about

:10:34. > :10:42.his mother, the Princess of Wales. It's hard because obviously

:10:43. > :10:49.Katherine didn't know her so she can not really provide that level of

:10:50. > :10:53.detail so I do regularly, putting Charlotte and George to bed, remind

:10:54. > :11:07.them that there were two grand mothers in their lives. Just after

:11:08. > :11:13.9. 30, we'll bring you the information on the ASBOs for doings.

:11:14. > :11:16.They are not being used by councils even though they've had the powers

:11:17. > :11:23.in order to try to stop doing attacks. We are going to talk to

:11:24. > :11:28.Sandra McKevitt after 9. 30. She's never done an interview before. She

:11:29. > :11:33.was there when her granddaughter was attacked in her front garden by five

:11:34. > :11:37.doings who'd broken through the garden fence. So we'll talk more

:11:38. > :11:41.about that after 9. 30. All of you are saying it's the owners'

:11:42. > :11:43.responsibility. John on Facebook, Anthony on Facebook, the

:11:44. > :11:48.responsibility of attacks falls within owners and the Government for

:11:49. > :11:52.allowing anyone on licence to own potential killing machines. Anthony

:11:53. > :12:04.says the main problem lies with the owners, they look to the doings as a

:12:05. > :12:19.status symbol. Get in touch on Twitter or e-mail us.

:12:20. > :12:32.Olly is with us now. I took my boys to the Cricket World Cup. India were

:12:33. > :12:37.cruising to that modest 229 that England set and then suddenly India

:12:38. > :12:40.collapsed didn't they? Yes, India have been absolutely fantastic. They

:12:41. > :12:44.beat England in the group stage before they qualified for the

:12:45. > :12:48.knockout stage. I was working here yesterday Victoria, you were very

:12:49. > :12:52.lucky to be there and every telly pretty much was tuned into the

:12:53. > :12:57.cricket, so much going on, but most people were watching the cricket.

:12:58. > :13:02.England's women world champions for a fourth time. They'll be having a

:13:03. > :13:09.few heavy heads because I think they were celebrating in the Lord's TV

:13:10. > :13:15.averner's Bar afterwards. One of those tournaments that went under

:13:16. > :13:21.the radar, started a month ago, was up against Wimbledon. You could

:13:22. > :13:27.stream some of the matches for free but it wasn't on terrestrial TV. It

:13:28. > :13:31.was a sell out at Lord's. A great global audience. England were

:13:32. > :13:38.fantastic, making 228, India seemed to be cruising to victory but shrub

:13:39. > :13:41.sole there, wow, five in 19 deliveries, turned the match on its

:13:42. > :13:48.head, got the winning wicket as well. England last won it in 2009,

:13:49. > :13:53.Shrubsole was the player of the match. Pure elation I think. I

:13:54. > :13:56.always think it's better when you're all out there in the field because

:13:57. > :13:59.you have got your team-mates around you and this World Cup really has

:14:00. > :14:05.been a team effort. People have chipped in along the way, we have

:14:06. > :14:10.fought our way through some games, haven't necessarily won the pretest.

:14:11. > :14:21.Test cricket is all about winning, and not how you do it. Look at this

:14:22. > :14:26.tweet from Ian Shrubsole, a picture of Anya in 2001 when she was 11 and

:14:27. > :14:29."what a place, I would like to play here for England in a World Cup

:14:30. > :14:38.final", is what she said. Didn't she just! That is absolutely brilliant.

:14:39. > :14:43.Dreams can come true! Chris Froome, he wins the Tour de France again? !

:14:44. > :14:47.That is a dream isn't it of all his four titles. He says this was the

:14:48. > :14:53.toughest because his rivals were so much better this year. 54 seconds

:14:54. > :15:00.his margin of victory, the narrowest of all his victories. There he is,

:15:01. > :15:06.victory parade up the Elysee, a glass or two of bubbly, as is

:15:07. > :15:11.customary. He's 32 now, says he'd like to carry on competing for

:15:12. > :15:17.another five years. Four men have won five tours, the likes of the

:15:18. > :15:22.great Eddie Merks, so there is every chance he could join some of the

:15:23. > :15:26.greats, if not surpass them. My word, what an achievement that is,

:15:27. > :15:32.the toughest grand Tour of Them all. He didn't win a single stage either,

:15:33. > :15:37.the seventh man only to wear that yellow jersey without wearing a

:15:38. > :15:41.single stage. But a real team effort from Team Sky to help Froome on his

:15:42. > :15:45.way to the fourth title. We'll talk about why he isn't loved more by the

:15:46. > :15:50.British public later. Your views welcome. No British winner at the

:15:51. > :15:56.Open but a fantastic day at Royal Birkdale?

:15:57. > :16:02.Royal Birkdale has now staged ten Open championships but no British

:16:03. > :16:05.winner. There was a real battle between Matt Kuchar and Jordan

:16:06. > :16:09.Spieth and we wondered how we could getting gauged with it. Jordan

:16:10. > :16:13.Spieth led from the first day and were three clear overnight but a

:16:14. > :16:20.dramatic final round. He threw away that lead in the first four with

:16:21. > :16:24.bogeys. And then at 13 he unravelled, ending up halfway up the

:16:25. > :16:28.hill. That was unplayable and it got complicated. It took 20 minutes to

:16:29. > :16:32.work out where he could drop the ball. They said the line of sight

:16:33. > :16:37.was in between those two drugs, and they couldn't do that. He is in the

:16:38. > :16:42.practice area. He birdied it and Matt Kuchar went into the lead. But

:16:43. > :16:48.then birdie, eagle, birdie, birdie, finishing on 12 under, three clear

:16:49. > :16:55.of Matt Kuchar. He is the master is open champion from 2015. But that

:16:56. > :16:59.claret jug, after the way he won after nearly throwing it all away,

:17:00. > :17:05.he says it is his greatest major yet and he is only 23. Thank you.

:17:06. > :17:08.Amazing. More from Olly throughout the morning.

:17:09. > :17:11.It is 50 years this week since gay sex was decriminalised.

:17:12. > :17:14.In 1967 the law in England and Wales changed so that it was no longer

:17:15. > :17:21.a crime for two consenting adult men over 21 to have sex.

:17:22. > :17:25.For some, that date was a watershed moment. For others it was just the

:17:26. > :17:27.start. Five decades on, how

:17:28. > :18:09.much has changed? We must be out and about

:18:10. > :18:28.in pubs, in clubs and in the classroom, talking

:18:29. > :18:30.about homosexuality and in fact, in that sense,

:18:31. > :19:12.promoting homosexuality. I'm now very happy to announce that

:19:13. > :19:40.you are now legally husbands. My focus and priority has

:19:41. > :19:48.been on my ministry, on serving God and serving God's

:19:49. > :20:26.people, and I do that, How much has changed? This email

:20:27. > :20:29.suggests not much. I am a 51-year-old gay man and I have had

:20:30. > :20:33.numerous homophobic insults. The last result was in March and my ribs

:20:34. > :20:38.and some were broken in an attack by four security personnel. In my

:20:39. > :20:41.experience homophobia is still a massive problem and the authorities

:20:42. > :20:46.are reluctant to even acknowledge my assaults. Someone who has seen

:20:47. > :20:50.attitudes change hugely over the course of his life is 94-year-old

:20:51. > :20:54.George Montague, who calls himself the oldest gay in the village.

:20:55. > :20:57.He was convicted in the 1970s for gross indecency.

:20:58. > :20:59.Peter Tatchell has spent most of his life campaigning

:21:00. > :21:04.on behalf of the lesbian, gay, bisexual and

:21:05. > :21:15.He describes what happened 50 years ago as partial decriminalisation.

:21:16. > :21:18.Ferhan Khan came out to his Muslim family when he was 15.

:21:19. > :21:23.She only came out to her children over the weekend.

:21:24. > :21:26.Her parents still don't know which is why we're only

:21:27. > :21:34.Welcome to all of you. How are you? Fine. Look at the smile on your

:21:35. > :21:44.face. I really want to know what has changed over your lifetime in terms

:21:45. > :21:49.of the way people treat gay men. Well, I lived a total lie, in the

:21:50. > :21:54.closet, with a wife and three lovely children, and I did a lot of acting

:21:55. > :21:59.and I was totally accept it as a heterosexual person. Nobody in the

:22:00. > :22:06.world except my wife knew I was gay until nine years ago. And when you

:22:07. > :22:15.came out, how did that change your life? When I was brought up, the

:22:16. > :22:18.hero of my life was Lord Baden Powell. I was a good Boy Scout and I

:22:19. > :22:23.did everything I should have done. You don't tell lies. I realised I

:22:24. > :22:28.was living a lie and I had to do something about it. So I went and

:22:29. > :22:34.had a long chat with my children and my daughter said, daddy, we have

:22:35. > :22:39.known for years! Then I took the bull by the horns, and I thought the

:22:40. > :22:45.best thing to do, I was living in Brighton at the time, was to go to

:22:46. > :22:49.Brighton pride, which is one of the best in the country. It is

:22:50. > :22:52.wonderful. All the houses with windows, the windows are full of

:22:53. > :22:55.people waving and shouting and cheering and even the people at the

:22:56. > :23:00.bus stops are cheering. It is wonderful. The best day of my life.

:23:01. > :23:07.And I am looking forward to the next one in a few weeks. Peter, let's

:23:08. > :23:10.talk about 1967 and what did change in practical terms. We talk about

:23:11. > :23:16.liberalisation but it was not as liberal as people think. Up until

:23:17. > :23:21.1967, gay and bisexual men could face a maximum sentence of life

:23:22. > :23:26.imprisonment. That was ended in 1967 but it was a partial, limited

:23:27. > :23:30.decriminalisation. All the anti-gay laws dating back centuries and they

:23:31. > :23:35.remained in force. They were policed in fact with ever greater

:23:36. > :23:41.aggression, so that in the years after 1967, the number of gay and

:23:42. > :23:44.bisexual men convicted rose by 400%. Including George Montague, who was

:23:45. > :23:51.convicted in the 1970s for gross indecency. Full decriminalisation

:23:52. > :23:58.only happened across the UK four years ago. Between 1967 and 2013, at

:23:59. > :24:04.least 15,000 men who were gay or bisexual were convicted for

:24:05. > :24:10.consenting to same-sex behaviour. It's is absolutely shocking and it

:24:11. > :24:13.is appalling it took so long. It took so long to get full legal

:24:14. > :24:18.equality in terms of the criminal law. I have friends who were

:24:19. > :24:25.arrested and convicted because they were under the age of 21, which was

:24:26. > :24:30.the age of consent set in 1967. 18 or 19, they were arrested. One of

:24:31. > :24:34.them went to prison for six months, to a young offenders institution,

:24:35. > :24:40.for consenting loving same-sex relationship. This was in the late

:24:41. > :24:44.1970s. It seems extraordinary. Winnie, hello. Thank you for coming

:24:45. > :24:49.on the programme. You came out as bisexual a year ago to friends and

:24:50. > :24:53.family. What has the last year be like for you? It has actually been

:24:54. > :24:58.really amazing, the support from my work colleagues and my friends. Some

:24:59. > :25:06.of my family, but not all of my family know about it. I was actually

:25:07. > :25:09.really surprised. I have not had any negative experiences. I recently

:25:10. > :25:16.told my children this weekend. They are ten and 11. They were absolutely

:25:17. > :25:19.amazing. I really underestimated telling them. They dealt with it

:25:20. > :25:26.really well. They really understood. They sat down and we explained it to

:25:27. > :25:30.them. They still see me as money, I am still the same person and I am

:25:31. > :25:40.that person at work as well. -- they Seanie as mummy. I am part of the

:25:41. > :25:51.equality network and Mike Ochoa has been with me 100% of the way. -- my

:25:52. > :25:56.co-chair. Do you wish you had done it sooner? It wasn't the right time.

:25:57. > :26:01.Coming out now felt right in itself. And what about your family, the

:26:02. > :26:06.older generations? I just don't think they would understand or

:26:07. > :26:11.accept it. My parents' generation would think it is wrong, not right,

:26:12. > :26:18.not normal, but I am who I am and they can either accept me for who I

:26:19. > :26:21.am or not. It is down to them. You come from a Muslim Pakistani family

:26:22. > :26:30.will. What was their reaction when you came out aged 15? That was

:26:31. > :26:35.nearly 20 years ago. Incredulity. They were just incredulous. You are

:26:36. > :26:40.gay? What? I think they thought I was too young to understand what I

:26:41. > :26:46.was saying. I don't think it impacted them in the way that it has

:26:47. > :26:57.now. It has been a journey since then. My sister is understood. They

:26:58. > :27:03.knew that you don't say that unless you are authentically attracted to

:27:04. > :27:06.the same gender. But it was hard finding acceptance and I still

:27:07. > :27:13.haven't found the acceptance that I really feel that I need. From

:27:14. > :27:19.relatives? Actually I don't have a lot of relatives in the UK. I have

:27:20. > :27:25.got some cousins. The rest of my family is in Pakistan. I am open on

:27:26. > :27:30.Facebook and I have had smatterings of acceptance from them. But here in

:27:31. > :27:33.the community back home in Glasgow, I haven't found the acceptance. I

:27:34. > :27:41.instinctively know that I am not really massively welcome as an

:27:42. > :27:48.openly gay man. At community events, weddings and things, I am not

:27:49. > :27:50.invited any more. I would say that the option to go back into the

:27:51. > :27:54.community and be part of the community is always there but I need

:27:55. > :28:00.that golden ticket. I need to marry a girl to be back. Do your parents

:28:01. > :28:04.still think you are going to marry a woman? There is some pressure to do

:28:05. > :28:11.it. I don't think they wanted to do it. I think they felt pressure from

:28:12. > :28:14.the rest of the community to get a marriage of convenience. The

:28:15. > :28:19.attitude is that the girl's duty is to hide your sexuality for you.

:28:20. > :28:28.Protestations that that isn't fair on the girl fall on deaf ears. What

:28:29. > :28:32.more needs to be done or is the fight over? We have made fantastic

:28:33. > :28:36.progress. Compared to a couple of decades ago, Britain is almost a

:28:37. > :28:41.different country. There has not only been a change in the law, but a

:28:42. > :28:46.change attitudes. Public attitudes are much more supportive, although

:28:47. > :28:52.you have said, there are still families who don't accept their LGBT

:28:53. > :28:56.kids. There is still homophobic hate crime today. 45% of young LGBT kids

:28:57. > :28:58.are bullied in schools and a lot of schools don't have an anti-bullying

:28:59. > :29:05.programme that specifically addresses that issue. There is big

:29:06. > :29:09.progress but more to be done. I think what we would like to reach is

:29:10. > :29:15.a situation where people's sexuality doesn't matter and nobody cares.

:29:16. > :29:19.Gay, straight, bisexual, trans. We want to get to a situation where

:29:20. > :29:27.nobody really cares that we accept the person and they love who they

:29:28. > :29:30.wish to love. George, you want an apology for the fact that you were

:29:31. > :29:39.convicted in the 1970s for gross indecency. You can't actually get a

:29:40. > :29:43.pardon because it is to do with the fact that the offence was in a

:29:44. > :29:50.public toilet. But what you want is an apology. I want an apology to the

:29:51. > :29:57.whole of the gate community for persecution of us for so many years.

:29:58. > :30:02.The police went out of their way to catch us, persecute and prosecute

:30:03. > :30:10.as. I think that is wrong. I didn't ask to be gay, I didn't choose to be

:30:11. > :30:14.gay, I was born that way. Therefore, once or twice I have spoken to

:30:15. > :30:19.children in school, and I say put your hands up if you are

:30:20. > :30:28.left-handed. Quite a number do. Now, I have got something to tell you. I

:30:29. > :30:37.am homosexual and I didn't ask to be. It is just nature. I would think

:30:38. > :30:41.in my opinion 5% or 10% of men are born that way. How is the campaign

:30:42. > :30:54.to get an apology going? Only a couple of days ago, New South

:30:55. > :30:59.Wales and New Zealand, it was on the radio, they've asked for a law,

:31:00. > :31:02.totally apologising for their whole communities for their law against

:31:03. > :31:05.homosexuality. That's what I want in this country. Who do you want to

:31:06. > :31:16.apologise? The government. The Prime Minister? The whole of the House of

:31:17. > :31:23.Commons. A unanimous debate and a unanimous apology to the whole of

:31:24. > :31:29.the gay community for the law of gross indecency should never have

:31:30. > :31:34.been brought into being, it should never have been brought in. Do you

:31:35. > :31:37.agree, Peter? Yes. We need a formal apology from the Prime Minister

:31:38. > :31:41.herself. She's the leader of the nation and she needs to make that

:31:42. > :31:44.formal apology, as do Chief Constables, like Cressida Dick, head

:31:45. > :31:49.of the Metropolitan Police. She needs to say, on behalf of the

:31:50. > :31:51.police, that they are sorry and apologise for the historic

:31:52. > :31:57.persecution of gay people. I think that would be a very important way

:31:58. > :32:02.of drawing a line under the historic persecution that so many gay people

:32:03. > :32:06.faced. If you talk about the last 100 years, about 100,000 gay and

:32:07. > :32:09.bisexual men were convicted for behaviour that in most cases

:32:10. > :32:13.wouldn't have been a crime if their partner had been a woman. That's

:32:14. > :32:21.shocking. Many of the men went to prison. Some of them were attacked

:32:22. > :32:25.and beaten by neighbours. Some were ostracised and rejected by families,

:32:26. > :32:34.they are now alcoholics, some had severe mental illnesses, some

:32:35. > :32:41.committed suicide. It's a shocking tale of stories. Jennifer says there

:32:42. > :32:47.is still so much to do to achieve true equality but brilliant that you

:32:48. > :32:51.are discussing the experience of HGBT people. Tim says what a

:32:52. > :32:57.struggle to get this far and attitudes still have to change. Sean

:32:58. > :33:01.says, we had over 30 gay insults outside our house in 2012. The

:33:02. > :33:04.perpetrator was known to us and the police. I apprehended the

:33:05. > :33:09.individual. I had to ask the police to arrest him. The police were not

:33:10. > :33:18.interested and the CPS said there wasn't enough evidence. Can you

:33:19. > :33:22.imagine a time when everybody treats everybody equally, when there were

:33:23. > :33:30.no homophobic insults or attacks? Can I imagine a time? Not really

:33:31. > :33:34.actually. Just from knowing how attitudes prevail, I suppose as

:33:35. > :33:40.humans, we tend to group people up and the majority tend to kind of

:33:41. > :33:52.hold sway over minorities that will deviate from the norm.

:33:53. > :33:58.It's about educating people actually. You have changed your

:33:59. > :34:06.mind, you couldn't see it now you can. What about you, Winnie, how old

:34:07. > :34:11.are you, do you mind me asking? 35. Do you imagine an era in your

:34:12. > :34:16.lifetime when there is equality, no insults, people treat you fairly and

:34:17. > :34:21.equally? I really hope there could be a time like that. At the moment,

:34:22. > :34:28.hearing everybody's experiences, it does seem quite far away but I think

:34:29. > :34:33.with a lot of support, education, especially Pride this year in London

:34:34. > :34:38.was absolutely amazing, the turnout was amazing and friends supporting

:34:39. > :34:42.colleagues and that, there could be a time but at the moment there is a

:34:43. > :34:51.long way ahead. An e-mail from someone who doesn't wish us to use

:34:52. > :34:56.their name. I'm a minister in a church and I'm totally unable to

:34:57. > :35:00.come out as gay. The church has not fully accepted gay relationships and

:35:01. > :35:04.at least one that I lead would be very much against me being gate.

:35:05. > :35:09.It's a difficult situation but as I still want to serve God and carry on

:35:10. > :35:13.working in this capacity because I'm gay doesn't change anything. I hope

:35:14. > :35:23.that this will make a difference. What would you say to that? George?

:35:24. > :35:29.Oh, dear. Oh, dear, I don't know. What would you say, Peter? I can

:35:30. > :35:34.understand his predicament entirely. It's only if we all come out that

:35:35. > :35:42.homophobia will be challenged and vanquished. So find supportive

:35:43. > :35:46.friends. We need people in all religions to challenge the

:35:47. > :35:51.homophobia that exists there to stand up against it and explain the

:35:52. > :35:55.case that love and compassion should triumph over prejudice and hate.

:35:56. > :36:01.Does that include people in the public eye who're not yet out?

:36:02. > :36:08.Absolutely. When I was growing up in the 60s there were no openly gay

:36:09. > :36:11.public figures at all. In the 70s, they were stereotypical versions

:36:12. > :36:17.mostly of gay men and hardly any lesbians. We now have lots of people

:36:18. > :36:23.out in public life but there are certain parts of life where it's

:36:24. > :36:29.still very unacknowledged. So in faith communities, there really is

:36:30. > :36:33.still a big issue about LGBT people and our acceptance and, all the

:36:34. > :36:37.major religions are supposedly about love and compassion so therefore

:36:38. > :36:42.surely they should accept their members and their faith leaders

:36:43. > :36:48.who're lesbian, gay or bisexual. It's a part of life, you know. Every

:36:49. > :36:52.society and culture throughout history, there'll be LGBT people,

:36:53. > :36:55.it's just part of a spectrum of human sexuality and we should just

:36:56. > :36:58.get used to it and accept it. I agree. Thank you very much for

:36:59. > :37:08.coming on the programme, George, lovely to see you, thank you Peter,

:37:09. > :37:17.Winnie as well. Get in touch with us, you can e-mail us anonymously.

:37:18. > :37:19.Still to come: New powers are not being used by the authorities

:37:20. > :37:26.despite a rise in hospital admissions. In a moment we speak to

:37:27. > :37:33.the family of a small girl who was mauled after five doings broke into

:37:34. > :37:41.her garden. We meet Love Island's fans and critics. Here is Rachel in

:37:42. > :37:45.the newsroom. The parents of Charlie Gard return to the High Court today

:37:46. > :37:48.with the judge set to consider new evidence from a US neurologist. His

:37:49. > :37:53.parents want to take their terminally ill baby to America for

:37:54. > :37:58.experimental treatment but doctors at Great Ormond Street Hospital

:37:59. > :38:02.believe it won't work and say the 11-month-old should be allowed to

:38:03. > :38:06.die with dignity. The Government's promising what it calls a revolution

:38:07. > :38:10.in the way electricity is generated, used and stored. The Business

:38:11. > :38:13.Secretary Greg Clark is to announce more investment in battery

:38:14. > :38:18.technology and details of a competition to boost innovation in

:38:19. > :38:24.energy storage. Under the plans, households could save up to ?40

:38:25. > :38:27.billion by 2015, it's thought. Britain's economic growth forecast

:38:28. > :38:30.has been downgraded by the International Monetary Fund

:38:31. > :38:33.following a weaker than expected performance at the start of the

:38:34. > :38:39.year. Back in April it was predicted the economy would grow by 2%. That

:38:40. > :38:43.figure has now been revised down to 1.7%. The Treasury says the report

:38:44. > :38:49.highlights the importance of a good brx it deal with the EU.

:38:50. > :38:59.The Duke of Cambridge has revealed how he tells his children stories

:39:00. > :39:08.about their grandmother Diana Diana Princess of Wales. That is a summary

:39:09. > :39:14.of the latest news. More at Ten. And Olly is back with the sport.

:39:15. > :39:19.These are the headlines: England's woman have wound their fourth

:39:20. > :39:30.cricket up with, they beat India in a thrilling finale. Anya Shrubsole

:39:31. > :39:35.was the star. Chris Froome said this was his toughest win of the Tour de

:39:36. > :39:42.France. He said he'd like to carry on competing for another five years.

:39:43. > :39:47.Jordan Spieth let slip a led at the Open but won brilliantly, finished

:39:48. > :39:50.clear of Matt Kuchar. Rory McIlroy was joint fourth. England are almost

:39:51. > :39:53.certain of a quarter-final place at the women's European Championship in

:39:54. > :39:59.Holland after a 2-0 win against Spain. Jodie Taylor scored her

:40:00. > :40:06.fourth goal of the tournament. Qualification is out of Scotland's

:40:07. > :40:14.hands as they lost 2-0 to Portugal. More sport later.

:40:15. > :40:21.Powers brought in to curb doing attacks are not being used to

:40:22. > :40:24.protect people from dangerous doings. ASBOs for doings were

:40:25. > :40:28.brought in three years ago, giving the police and local authorities

:40:29. > :40:32.more powers to demand irresponsible doing owners take steps to control

:40:33. > :40:36.their animals' behaviour and prevent afabbings. The notices are usually

:40:37. > :40:39.issued to deal with minor things like when a doing has been

:40:40. > :40:42.aggressive. They order the responsible person to stop doing

:40:43. > :40:48.something like letting the doing into a children's play area or

:40:49. > :40:52.making sure their pet is muzzled. Figures have revealed they are not

:40:53. > :40:56.being used regularly. More than three quarters of the 311 councils

:40:57. > :41:00.who responded to our Freedom of Information request have not issued

:41:01. > :41:06.a single one of the notices since they were introduced. Here with us

:41:07. > :41:14.Sandra McKevitt whose niece was attacked in her front garden by five

:41:15. > :41:25.doings. This is the first time she is speaking about the attack since

:41:26. > :41:30.it happened in May. Also two other guests. Some of you may find the

:41:31. > :41:35.photos we are going to show upsetting. How surprised are you

:41:36. > :41:40.Trevor to find that the notices are still not being used? I suppose it's

:41:41. > :41:44.relatively early days, it's still a disappointment. The intention is

:41:45. > :41:47.that it should provide for early inter-General Election to nip the

:41:48. > :41:51.problem in the bud before it gets out of hand. If it's not used, we

:41:52. > :41:56.are missing out on that opportunity. Why are they not being used? It may

:41:57. > :42:00.be that the victims just don't know that they should be complaining

:42:01. > :42:08.about it. It may be councils don't have the resources to deal with it.

:42:09. > :42:11.There could be some kind of confusion between police and council

:42:12. > :42:15.or lack of knowledge from the enforcers themselves. Is it the

:42:16. > :42:21.council's responsibility to issue the notices? Could be the council or

:42:22. > :42:24.the police. Sandra, thank you for coming on the programme. You had the

:42:25. > :42:29.most horrific experience earlier this year with your niece, Ella.

:42:30. > :42:36.Tell our audience a little bit about what happened? We were in the back

:42:37. > :42:39.garden having a picnic with Ella, Corey and Isla and they were

:42:40. > :42:46.starting to play a little game of tag. Then Corey and Isla were near

:42:47. > :42:52.the back door and me and Ella were further up the garden. We heard a

:42:53. > :42:56.loud bang on the six foot fence. The doing's head broke through. I

:42:57. > :43:01.immediately thought, this isn't going to end well, get the kids out

:43:02. > :43:05.of the way. So I asked Isla and Corey to go into the kitchen and

:43:06. > :43:12.stay there until I joined them with Ella. So I told them not tolike at

:43:13. > :43:16.the doings, not to run, take their time, go slowly. And then while I

:43:17. > :43:21.was telling them to do that, I got hold of Elle what's hand and by this

:43:22. > :43:26.time they'd all come through and they were circling us. How many

:43:27. > :43:31.doings? There was five of them. American bulldogs? Yes. American

:43:32. > :43:37.bully doings. I grabbed hold of Ella by the hand to lift her up and one

:43:38. > :43:44.of them had actually sunk his teeth into her shoulder and into her leg

:43:45. > :43:48.and then it was just absolute chaos. I was fighting, punching, kicking

:43:49. > :43:54.the doings trying to get them off her. My neighbour was shouting over

:43:55. > :43:59.his side of the fence, saying try and throw her over. They just

:44:00. > :44:05.wouldn't leave her alone. A neighbour at the back eventually

:44:06. > :44:10.jumped over the fence and distracted them and I saw my chance then to

:44:11. > :44:16.escape with Ella and we got through to the front of the house where

:44:17. > :44:21.people were trying to help us. A medic came first, he thought it was

:44:22. > :44:26.just a doing bite. He was horrified by what he found. I learnt later on

:44:27. > :44:31.that he was actually off with stress because he didn't realise how

:44:32. > :44:36.horrific her injuries were. What kind of injuries did she sustain?

:44:37. > :44:41.They basically just tore her face. Her cheek. You could see her bone,

:44:42. > :44:50.the skull. One of them got her by the mouth and severed all the

:44:51. > :44:57.nerves. They tore at her skull. She was bitten all over on the legs, the

:44:58. > :45:05.back, the arms and the blood was everywhere. The ambulance came. They

:45:06. > :45:12.realised they needed to get her to Alder Hey quickly. So the Air

:45:13. > :45:18.Ambulance landed nearby and they flew her, her heart stopped. She

:45:19. > :45:24.stopped breathing. When she got to Alder Hey, she had to endure an

:45:25. > :45:25.eight-hour operation while the fabulous surgeons there basically

:45:26. > :45:39.had to sew her face back on. Tell us how she is now. She is a

:45:40. > :45:45.fighter. She teaches us. They told us that she would not be able to do

:45:46. > :45:49.anything nowadays and within hours she was sitting up and trying to

:45:50. > :45:57.boss us about. She is totally confused. The other two kids were

:45:58. > :46:04.terrified of dogs before. This has just confirmed their fears. If we go

:46:05. > :46:12.out anywhere, it takes hours of coaxing. Will there be dogs? Where I

:46:13. > :46:19.work, they very generously got a lovely garden set of swings for us,

:46:20. > :46:25.and she wants them indoors. The psychological effects of it. I have

:46:26. > :46:31.nightmares that I have gone blind and she is shouting for me to help

:46:32. > :46:40.her and I can't see her. She wakes up herself screaming get the dogs

:46:41. > :46:44.off me. The others are the same. You had complained about the dogs and he

:46:45. > :46:50.talked about the fact that they were aggressive and there was the stink

:46:51. > :46:53.of dog mess the whole time. I was getting evidence together myself. We

:46:54. > :47:01.basically couldn't go out in the back garden. I had spoken to my

:47:02. > :47:05.neighbour. He is not a bad person. You can talk to him. I will never

:47:06. > :47:10.forget the look on his face when he realised what the dogs had done. He

:47:11. > :47:15.was absolutely distraught. What happened to the dogs and the owner?

:47:16. > :47:24.The dogs were taken away and destroyed. The puppies were given to

:47:25. > :47:30.charity. The dog owner is now in prison. Let me read some messages

:47:31. > :47:37.from people listening to you talk about this. Colleen says I have a

:47:38. > :47:41.band breed pit bull type dog. It has an amazing temperament and it loves

:47:42. > :47:46.children. I believe it is how you treat the dog which determines the

:47:47. > :47:52.way it behaves. John has texted and said he owns a pit bull. I don't

:47:57. > :48:02.inverted commas, which he has had since eight weeks old, it is the

:48:03. > :48:07.most placid dog you could ever meet. The issue is at the other end of the

:48:08. > :48:10.lead. The dog is a reflection of you. Tyler says I feel that dog

:48:11. > :48:15.breeds that are known to be violent should be banned. How people with

:48:16. > :48:26.these breed can get away with it, I don't know. What is your take on

:48:27. > :48:29.this and the fact that dogbos are not being used? I can think of

:48:30. > :48:33.nothing worse than this event. Children playing in their own garden

:48:34. > :48:36.should of course be safe. We accept that the Dangerous Dogs Act is not

:48:37. > :48:42.working but there is a reluctance to change because the last thing we

:48:43. > :48:45.want to see is further attacks. We did hope that these new notices

:48:46. > :48:50.would help things. We wanted it to act as an early warning system. In

:48:51. > :48:55.these circumstances, what we have got to remember is that there has

:48:56. > :48:59.been a change in the law to make on private property and offence. That

:49:00. > :49:03.is what is happening in this case. But we want to see things that

:49:04. > :49:07.prevent these attacks from occurring rather than acting after the event.

:49:08. > :49:12.It is all very well prosecuting and destroying the dog. We need

:49:13. > :49:16.prevention. We hoped the new notices would give the opportunity for

:49:17. > :49:19.people to act as an early warning system, to alert the local

:49:20. > :49:23.authorities, and it is very disappointing that they are not

:49:24. > :49:26.being used. The kennel club ran an event for local authorities earlier

:49:27. > :49:30.this year to highlight these issues. It seems that all too often they

:49:31. > :49:34.want to bring in blanket notices to protect certain areas rather than

:49:35. > :49:39.targeting individuals. I think something needs to change. So it is

:49:40. > :49:49.a wasted opportunity in a way? I think it is. It is early days and I

:49:50. > :49:52.think the local authorities need to look at themselves and say what more

:49:53. > :49:54.can we do to protect communities? Thank you very much for talking to

:49:55. > :49:57.us. We appreciate it. And all the best to the children.

:53:06. > :53:12.Welcome. You met Scott on the last series. Are you still together? Yes,

:53:13. > :53:17.we live together and we even have a little dog. It is serious. What was

:53:18. > :53:23.it like starting a relationship on television? Is very weird, I'm not

:53:24. > :53:27.going to live. It isn't your average, is it? But one to tell

:53:28. > :53:32.their grandchildren. Why do you love it? I don't know. At first my

:53:33. > :53:36.girlfriend was watching it and I was watching it with their resentfully,

:53:37. > :53:43.that I got into it and I realised I enjoyed having something mindless to

:53:44. > :53:48.watch in the is evening and talking to everybody about it. I am on so

:53:49. > :53:53.many Whatsapp groups talking about it. Not everybody is watching it! It

:53:54. > :53:59.is getting 2.2 million and it is more popular than the first series.

:54:00. > :54:04.Why? It was a slow burner. It came after Celebrity Love Island and last

:54:05. > :54:08.year it started to get more momentum and people were talking about it and

:54:09. > :54:14.this year it is an event television, which we don't really have other

:54:15. > :54:19.than Strictly Come Dancing and The X factor. Everybody likes talking

:54:20. > :54:25.about what everybody is watching at work the next day. It is a communal

:54:26. > :54:32.event to watch. You invest in the people. Definitely. And you are not

:54:33. > :54:36.a fan? I can't say that I am a fan. It is a mystery to me. It is the

:54:37. > :54:40.lowest common denominator. No disrespect because I am sure it was

:54:41. > :54:46.full of lovely people. But where do we go from here? We have basically

:54:47. > :54:53.got couples just picking each other based on sex. That is it. Sorry, it

:54:54. > :54:56.isn't just based on sex. This year, Gabby Adcock cell are in love, you

:54:57. > :55:06.can tell, and they haven't had sex. -- Gabby and Marcel. I found my soul

:55:07. > :55:10.mate on there and we are going to marry. Sex is a big part of a

:55:11. > :55:18.relationship that it is not just about sex. No, but the highest

:55:19. > :55:21.traffic on social media and the young people I work with, the

:55:22. > :55:25.primary driver seems to be whether or not somebody is going to be

:55:26. > :55:31.getting off with somebody or not. There is a language around that. Is

:55:32. > :55:36.that a bad thing? I think it is a confusing thing particularly for

:55:37. > :55:40.young girls watching that. Is this really the most important thing

:55:41. > :55:44.about me? Walking around in a bikini, as long, bursting a balloon

:55:45. > :55:51.with my bottom. I don't think that is true. My friends that watch it,

:55:52. > :55:55.at least, we watch and it is the latest when somebody had sex, or

:55:56. > :56:00.they are swapping couples, that people are actually watching for the

:56:01. > :56:03.human relationships as well. They invest in the couples and people

:56:04. > :56:10.want to see them commit and work after the show. People can relate to

:56:11. > :56:13.it. That is why it is so big. It is about couples finding out about each

:56:14. > :56:17.other and falling in love. Who doesn't want to watch couples

:56:18. > :56:21.falling in love? Yes, you argue and you have sex, but that is part of a

:56:22. > :56:26.relationship. I think everyone's favourite couple this year is

:56:27. > :56:32.probably the bromance with Chris, nonsexual. That is tribute to the

:56:33. > :56:36.50th anniversary that changed the world for the better! Of course. I

:56:37. > :56:47.am sure Peter Tatchell would tell us. It is also the trials. The

:56:48. > :56:54.ping-pong trial. But you do them on hen dos. You do them on nights out

:56:55. > :56:58.with your friends. Do you? Yes, I think young people relate to these

:56:59. > :57:02.things. You get your bare bottom out and you burst balloon? The girls get

:57:03. > :57:09.their bottoms out because they want to. It is ready to wear thong

:57:10. > :57:13.bikinis and if you have a nice bottom, why not? So girls go to hen

:57:14. > :57:16.dos and squash balloons? I went on a hen do in a beat that we didn't do

:57:17. > :57:21.exactly that but we did fun game that it was the best thing ever. I

:57:22. > :57:24.don't think it is demeaning for lots of these people. They know what they

:57:25. > :57:29.are getting into, they are having fun, they are living in a villa.

:57:30. > :57:34.They are in their 20s and who can say they have been an Love Island? I

:57:35. > :57:38.don't think I said it is demeaning. It is a confusing message for

:57:39. > :57:47.younger women. A lot of the terms, we know that they are printed on

:57:48. > :57:50.Primark T-shirts. Like you are 100% on paper. What I can't understand is

:57:51. > :57:56.they are in front of them, so they are not on paper. If somebody asked

:57:57. > :58:01.you what is your type and use their tall, dark and handsome, that is

:58:02. > :58:06.your type on paper. But they are in front of them? But talking to your

:58:07. > :58:15.friends, you say they are my type on paper. If I like dark hair, I say he

:58:16. > :58:19.is my type on paper. So what would be the next level after Love Island?

:58:20. > :58:26.Where do we go culturally from there? Does it have to go anywhere

:58:27. > :58:31.culturally? Can it just be entertaining escapism? I think so.

:58:32. > :58:43.People have found love and I am an example. It is a dating show. Blind

:58:44. > :58:48.Date, souped up. For the summer. We already have these shows. Naked

:58:49. > :58:56.Attractions. That is something else. We already have these shows and I

:58:57. > :59:00.don't think Love Island is as salacious as people are making it

:59:01. > :59:04.out to be. It is based on people finding love. Yes, they have sex,

:59:05. > :59:09.but couples have sex. And nice people win in the end, broadly

:59:10. > :59:15.speaking? I like to think that Scott and I are nice! I didn't mean that!

:59:16. > :59:19.And the couple that came second, they are engaged. They are head over

:59:20. > :59:23.heels for each other. The couple that came first are unfortunately

:59:24. > :59:27.not together any more but they are expecting a baby. It can happen. The

:59:28. > :59:33.final is tonight. Three of you will be watching. Will you watch the

:59:34. > :59:38.final? I feel compelled to! You will be watching! OK! Thank you for

:59:50. > :00:01.with Carol. Good morning. Weather is mixed fortunes today. In

:00:02. > :00:05.a west, sunshine, but in the east, cloud. Look at these beautiful

:00:06. > :00:09.pictures. Blue skies in Cornwall. Another lovely one from the Wirral.

:00:10. > :00:14.This is Cambridgeshire, where we have got more cloud. You can see

:00:15. > :00:19.nicely in the satellite picture that west is best in terms of sunshine.

:00:20. > :00:24.In central and eastern areas this morning, more cloud. That is

:00:25. > :00:27.producing drizzly outbreaks of rain. Through the day, this weather front

:00:28. > :00:31.responsible for that will push in the direction of the North Sea. It

:00:32. > :00:34.should start to brighten up under the ridge of high pressure across

:00:35. > :00:37.the Midlands for example. East Anglia could see some sunshine

:00:38. > :00:42.through the course of the afternoon as well. If you are anywhere down

:00:43. > :00:47.this North Sea coastline, it will feel quite chilly. We have that

:00:48. > :00:56.onshore wind. It is accents rating the coalfield. If you are in the

:00:57. > :01:04.cloud or rain, you will feel that. -- it accentuates the cold feeling.

:01:05. > :01:09.At Scotland is nicer, with Glasgow reaching 26. Cloud breaking up in

:01:26. > :01:30.through. We are back into the sunshine as we drift into south-west

:01:31. > :01:35.England. 23 in Cardiff and Plymouth and for most of Wales it will be dry

:01:36. > :01:40.and sunny. Into the evening and overnight, if anything we start to

:01:41. > :01:44.lose the showers. The winds ease down a touch and we get clear skies

:01:45. > :01:48.and isolated pockets of fog, nothing too dramatic. Under clear skies

:01:49. > :01:51.across the Highlands, temperatures will dip down lower than you can see

:01:52. > :01:56.in the charts, down into single figures. Tomorrow we start with

:01:57. > :02:00.sunshine where we have had clear skies by night and there will be

:02:01. > :02:04.some cloud around but through the day, it will turn over and we will

:02:05. > :02:12.see sunny intervals develop in. Drier down the east coast and not as

:02:13. > :02:16.cold as today. We have cloud coming down across Cornwall, the Isles of

:02:17. > :02:22.Scilly, courtesy of this low pressure, and on Wednesday it will

:02:23. > :02:26.rattle quickly from west to east. If you look at the squeeze on the

:02:27. > :02:32.isobars, it will also be quite windy. A blustery, wet day. When she

:02:33. > :02:38.starts off dry in the east, but it will not take long for the rain to

:02:39. > :02:44.rattle through. -- Wednesday starts off dry in the east. It will

:02:45. > :02:49.eventually clear for some. Behind it, bright skies, sunshine and

:02:50. > :02:53.showers. That is how we are going to end the week, sunshine and showers.

:02:54. > :02:58.This week is fairly changeable with the wettest day on Wednesday. And

:02:59. > :03:01.rather cool if you are stuck under the cloud and the rain. And Thursday

:10:35. > :10:37.of the show. Pure elation I think. I always think it's better winning

:10:38. > :10:39.when you're all out there in the field because you have your

:10:40. > :10:44.team-mates around you. This World Cup's really been a team effort.

:10:45. > :10:47.People have chipped in, we have fought our way through. Haven't

:10:48. > :10:50.necessarily won the prettiest at times. Tournament cricket is all

:11:00. > :11:10.de France for another five years. He's second on the list of all-time

:11:11. > :11:15.victories. It was the traditional victory parade yesterday. It was his

:11:16. > :11:19.third triumph in a row, he did it without winning a single stage. His

:11:20. > :11:23.winning margin of 54 seconds was the narrowest. He says this tour was the

:11:24. > :11:29.hardest because his rivals were so much better this year. Incredible

:11:30. > :11:34.feeling to ride on to the Elysee even after having done it three

:11:35. > :11:39.times previously. It doesn't diminish at all. It's still all the

:11:40. > :11:46.same emotions here. I mean, it's incredible. Pollutely incredible. --

:11:47. > :11:53.absolutely incredible. Jordan Spieth had a roller coaster of a day

:11:54. > :11:57.yesterday. He went walk about on the 13th, sliced his drive, spent 20

:11:58. > :12:00.minutes finding the ball which was unplayable and working out where to

:12:01. > :12:06.drop it with the help of the officials. He finally took his shot

:12:07. > :12:14.from the mid offal the practise area. Three birdies, an eagle saw

:12:15. > :12:20.Spieth claiming the Claret Jug by three shots. His first Open triumph.

:12:21. > :12:25.He's 23, he's also won the Masters and the US Open. Jack Nicklaus is

:12:26. > :12:30.the only other player to have won three major titles at that age. Some

:12:31. > :12:34.football for you, England look almost certain of a quarter-final

:12:35. > :12:38.spots at the European Championship in the Netherlands. They beat Spain

:12:39. > :12:43.2-0 and were helped by a change of heart by the referee. Ellen White

:12:44. > :12:47.handled the ball in the box. The ref awarded Spain a penalty but changed

:12:48. > :12:52.her mind with clarification from England's players that it had been

:12:53. > :12:57.accidental. After that let-off, England's Jodie Taylor doubled their

:12:58. > :13:02.lead, so 2-0 to England. They're top of the group. Scotland's hopes of

:13:03. > :13:06.reaching the quarters is out of their hands. They're bottom of the

:13:07. > :13:14.group after losing 6-0 to England in the first match. They lost 2-1 to

:13:15. > :13:18.Portugal last night. Erin Cuthbert equalised but they fell behind

:13:19. > :13:26.shortly after. The Scots will need a big win and they'll be hoping

:13:27. > :13:31.England beat Portugal. The athletics paras came to an end last night.

:13:32. > :13:36.They won four on the final morning yesterday, including a gold for

:13:37. > :13:40.Sammy Kinghorn who added the 100 metres title to her 200 metres gold.

:13:41. > :13:45.She didn't finish on the podium in the 800. The British team won eight

:13:46. > :13:50.more medals at the Championships than they managed in Doha two years

:13:51. > :13:51.ago. So the paras going from strength-to-strength. Headlines

:13:52. > :13:55.later. Thank you very much. Nearly three years ago,

:13:56. > :13:58.so-called Islamic State fighters swept through northern Iraq

:13:59. > :14:01.where the countries oldest ethnic They expelled thousand

:14:02. > :14:07.of them from their homes Many of the men were shot,

:14:08. > :14:13.while the women and children were kidnapped, taken as hostage

:14:14. > :14:16.and raped in some cases raped The German government has stepped

:14:17. > :14:22.in to help by re-settling many of the women who have managed

:14:23. > :14:25.to escape captivity. We've been given exclusive access

:14:26. > :14:28.to a small group of them who are living in a secret location,

:14:29. > :14:31.in a psychiatric hospital It's the first time many

:14:32. > :14:36.of the women have spoken publicly Our reporter Fiona Lamdin has

:14:37. > :14:40.spent a couple of days with them as they attempted

:14:41. > :14:44.to re-build their lives. As you'd expect with this story some

:14:45. > :14:47.of the details in their story are upsetting and graphic

:14:48. > :14:49.and you may not want 17 Yazidis are living on this

:14:50. > :15:50.corridor in the middle of It's a long way from their

:15:51. > :15:57.home in northern Iraq, Three years ago, on 3rd August 2014,

:15:58. > :16:12.they were attacked by IS fighters. Many of the men were

:16:13. > :16:14.shot, and the women She and her family tried

:16:15. > :16:23.to escape up the mountain, Mount Sinjar, but they couldn't

:16:24. > :16:41.run fast enough. She was then kidnapped,

:16:42. > :16:43.torn apart from her mother, She told me she saw things that

:16:44. > :17:01.will always haunt her. Things which I found very

:17:02. > :17:03.difficult to listen to. We're not allowed to show

:17:04. > :17:44.you where the girls are living. Many of their families

:17:45. > :17:49.are still in captivity. But not far from here,

:17:50. > :17:51.those 17 Yazidis are integrating Many of them are even

:17:52. > :17:57.going to school here as they start So we focus on certain emotions

:17:58. > :18:06.like love, peace and joy, to forget fear, anxiety

:18:07. > :18:11.and other negative emotions. And here to help them, a team

:18:12. > :18:15.of mentors from across the world. Her nephew Amin was only

:18:16. > :18:25.seven when IS fighters He hasn't seen his

:18:26. > :18:30.parents for three years. But in the last month his mother has

:18:31. > :18:33.been spotted in a camp During today's meditation,

:18:34. > :18:42.he imagines that all his people are released and he sees himself

:18:43. > :18:44.reunited, celebrating It's thought his father

:18:45. > :18:56.was killed by IS fighters, the same who kidnapped his

:18:57. > :18:59.aunt and kept her a sex I'm telling them I want them to

:19:00. > :20:10.write down their dreams and goals. After all these girls have been

:20:11. > :20:13.through, it will take years Today's art therapy

:20:14. > :20:20.session is just a start. We can't show you this

:20:21. > :20:22.13-year-old girl. She doesn't know if her

:20:23. > :20:32.parents are still alive. She too was captured by IS,

:20:33. > :20:35.and now only communicates Jacqueline, tell me the difference

:20:36. > :20:46.you have seen in the girls It's incredible, going from tears,

:20:47. > :20:55.sadness, no eye contact... Leading this team is Jacqueline

:20:56. > :20:58.Isaac, an American lawyer, who spends much of her time

:20:59. > :21:00.advocating for women She was working in Iraq,

:21:01. > :21:10.taking aid to those Yazidis who escaped from IS by fleeing

:21:11. > :21:13.to Mount Sinjar - a mountain close to their villages,

:21:14. > :21:15.where many were left I met a mother and she

:21:16. > :21:22.was telling me how her She didn't know

:21:23. > :21:25.what happened to her. Make your government go out

:21:26. > :21:33.there and get our girls, Just days later, in one

:21:34. > :21:43.of the villages below the mountain, Ekhlas managed to escape

:21:44. > :21:46.while her abuser was out fighting. She was taken to a refugee camp

:21:47. > :21:49.and a few days later This footage was filmed just

:21:50. > :22:13.days after her escape. When I first met her,

:22:14. > :22:15.her head was down. There was no eye contact

:22:16. > :22:24.in the beginning. It was a porch,

:22:25. > :22:26.they were all sitting. There were counsellors we had

:22:27. > :22:32.brought, they were sitting on the right-hand side,

:22:33. > :22:34.on stand-by to give I remember thinking,

:22:35. > :22:37.this is not the time This is just the time for

:22:38. > :22:46.recognising them as human beings. The song she is looking

:22:47. > :22:49.for, is a song talking about what happened to her family

:22:50. > :22:51.and her people. Three months later,

:22:52. > :22:53.Ekhlas moved again. She's just one of thousands

:22:54. > :22:55.of Yazidis resettled They go to mainstream school

:22:56. > :23:10.with the rest of the town every day. But their education doesn't solely

:23:11. > :23:17.take place in German classrooms. Back where they live

:23:18. > :23:32.in the hospital, as well as music therapy, they are also being taught

:23:33. > :23:34.English by Jacqueline's team. Despite living 6000 miles apart,

:23:35. > :23:41.Jacqueline is dedicated to these girls, visiting them

:23:42. > :23:43.every few months. But even when she isn't with them,

:23:44. > :23:54.she talks to them online every week, When you look at all the recruits,

:23:55. > :24:01.Isis recruits coming from all over the world,

:24:02. > :24:03.how did they get What if we could reverse

:24:04. > :24:14.what was used as negative? What if we could use the same tool

:24:15. > :24:17.to transform the lives of the next Then we open up a centre in Iraq

:24:18. > :24:24.where over 40 girls are learning English through Skype,

:24:25. > :24:27.through the internet, by teachers who have

:24:28. > :24:33.volunteered their time. Every day the story was,

:24:34. > :24:37."this is what has happened to me, this is what has happened

:24:38. > :24:38.to my people. But now they are overcoming

:24:39. > :24:46.their story of the past, and creating a story

:24:47. > :24:49.to define their own future. Just last year she

:24:50. > :25:05.addressed our Parliament. The result of her story -

:25:06. > :25:08.the House of Commons unanimously declared Yazidis victims

:25:09. > :25:10.of an Isis genocide. She now wants to become

:25:11. > :25:13.a lawyer here in Germany. Would you like to go back

:25:14. > :25:16.to Iraq to live there? These girls are now

:25:17. > :25:40.starting to live again, but they are living

:25:41. > :26:27.with deep, deep scars. These messages from you. Harrowing

:26:28. > :26:31.ordeal. I hope this young woman can get the help she needs to overcome

:26:32. > :26:35.the trauma. The UK should take these girls from refugee camps and do the

:26:36. > :26:39.same as Germany. That report was from Fiona Landen.

:26:40. > :26:42.The BBC has learned that 80% of NHS areas are failing to meet

:26:43. > :26:44.the government's two week target for women to receive

:26:45. > :26:48.There's currently a backlog caused by future changes to the way

:26:49. > :26:53.Laboratories say they're struggling to retain staff who will no longer

:26:54. > :26:58.be required when automated screening starts in 2019.

:26:59. > :27:01.Let's talk to Lou Armer who waited for seven weeks to receive

:27:02. > :27:09.And Robert Music is the chief executive of Jo's Cervical

:27:10. > :27:19.Welcome to you both. Good morning. Tell us what it is like waiting for

:27:20. > :27:23.seven weeks to get your results. It is horrendous. It is so hard not to

:27:24. > :27:28.get anxious with any test. But the longer it goes on, the more your

:27:29. > :27:36.head ties itself in knots and you start imagining all kinds of things.

:27:37. > :27:40.Not very nice. It is not just impacting on you either, but your

:27:41. > :27:45.family as well, isn't it? Of course the more stressed you are, the more

:27:46. > :27:50.it affects everybody around you. I just worried about it quietly

:27:51. > :27:53.really, and I was waiting for seven weeks and at the end of the seventh

:27:54. > :27:58.week, I got a letter inviting me to go for a smear test when I had just

:27:59. > :28:02.had one. It was at that point when I got in touch with my surgery to find

:28:03. > :28:06.out what was happening. Fortunately I got the result that day but they

:28:07. > :28:16.had only arrived at the surgery that day. I was really stressed and

:28:17. > :28:19.anxious. Why this backlog? Cervical screening, the first thing that we

:28:20. > :28:23.must say is that this is an important and powerful test and it

:28:24. > :28:27.prevents 75% of cervical cancers and we are very lucky to have the

:28:28. > :28:34.programme. The programme is going through some changes. In 2019 it

:28:35. > :28:41.will change. Cervical cancer is caused by the humour papilloma virus

:28:42. > :28:44.in 95% of all cases. And in 2019 they will change the way they look

:28:45. > :28:49.at smear tests. Instead of looking at the cells in a laboratory, they

:28:50. > :28:55.will look at the human papilloma virus DNA. That will identify women

:28:56. > :28:58.who are high risk earlier, and it does mean that there will be a

:28:59. > :29:02.reduction in terms of the numbers of people needed to be working in the

:29:03. > :29:06.laboratories. It seems to me that this is the problem. It is because

:29:07. > :29:09.the programme is changing into people are, leaving the laboratories

:29:10. > :29:17.now and there is a backlog, which is very concerning. What difference

:29:18. > :29:23.could a backlog make when it means that people like Lou are not getting

:29:24. > :29:32.the results in two weeks but are waiting for seven weeks? Anxiety and

:29:33. > :29:39.stress, but hopefully in terms of long-term concerns there are not too

:29:40. > :29:43.many. Some people might fall through the net and get a delayed diagnosis.

:29:44. > :29:48.If people have a bad experience around the programme, they may not

:29:49. > :29:52.come back. We are at a place where cervical screening is at a 19 year

:29:53. > :29:57.low and we are worried about the numbers of people attending. Why is

:29:58. > :30:00.that? You get letters every few years reminding you. But it is up to

:30:01. > :30:06.you to make the appointment. There are many barriers. We are dependent

:30:07. > :30:09.on the different age groups, different ethnicities. Sometimes it

:30:10. > :30:14.is simply access ability. If you are put off by a bad experience, you

:30:15. > :30:20.might not come back. It is very important that we turn around and

:30:21. > :30:23.reduce this backlog. And it is two years until the programme is

:30:24. > :30:29.introduced, so it could get worse, which is a worry. And when you got

:30:30. > :30:32.the results after seven weeks, what were you told, Lou? I was really

:30:33. > :30:37.lucky. It hadn't brought up anything. It was a huge relief. But

:30:38. > :30:43.if it had not been good news, I would have been thrown into another

:30:44. > :30:50.roller-coaster. But I was lucky that it was a good result. That is good

:30:51. > :30:54.to hear. Thank you, Lou and Robert. NHS England say they are working to

:30:55. > :30:57.reduce the backlog. They closely monitor the turnaround times were

:30:58. > :31:01.cervical screening against a very high process measure. That means

:31:02. > :31:07.that 90% of women screened should receive their results within two

:31:08. > :31:10.weeks. Cervical screening saves an estimated 5000 lives a year so it is

:31:11. > :31:14.vital that women take up the opportunity to be tested.

:34:32. > :34:34.the community's got to pick up the pieces.

:34:35. > :34:44.Former Metropolitan Police superintendent Lee row Logan told me

:34:45. > :34:49.the CCTV footage raises some important questions -- Leroy Logan.

:34:50. > :34:55.I saw the footage and obviously it's showing an officer restraining a

:34:56. > :35:04.person believed to be a suspect and, of course, force was being used

:35:05. > :35:11.around the person's upper body. Of course, we now know that that person

:35:12. > :35:13.has passed away. When it comes to restraining a suspect, presumably

:35:14. > :35:23.proportionality is the key, is it? Absolutely. Whenever any action that

:35:24. > :35:32.an officer has to take has to take into account a person's human rights

:35:33. > :35:38.and that must be clear in an officer's mind and he or she must

:35:39. > :35:45.know that their action has to be proportionate, it has to be legal

:35:46. > :35:54.and it has to be necessary. These are the tests that have to be looked

:35:55. > :35:58.at by the investigating officers in the Independent Police Complaints

:35:59. > :36:03.Commission. Of course, if it goes further, in terms of the Crown

:36:04. > :36:09.Prosecution Service, or even further to the courts. As you well know,

:36:10. > :36:14.there is often no time when it comes to an arresting officer to assess

:36:15. > :36:19.the risks. That's presumably when the training kicks in. You make a

:36:20. > :36:25.judgment, a decision and your training kicks in from there? Yes.

:36:26. > :36:29.Officers are trained, they're professionals, so they should have

:36:30. > :36:35.it clearly in their minds whenever they in any form of encounter with a

:36:36. > :36:41.person, whether it's a suspect or otherwise, they have to do their

:36:42. > :36:45.dynamic risk assessment. It's obviously, bearing in mind a safety

:36:46. > :36:52.to the public, safety to themselves and obviously safety of the suspect,

:36:53. > :36:58.and that's inherent of the job. They have to take these very critical

:36:59. > :37:08.areas into consideration, especially when it comes to a volatile

:37:09. > :37:12.situation, you know. Unfortunately, society, the courts, dictate that

:37:13. > :37:18.officers have to be professional in a volatile situation as they are in

:37:19. > :37:28.a reasonable and slow-moving situation. How significant could it

:37:29. > :37:34.be that the Met say the suspect was taken ill after trying to swallow an

:37:35. > :37:40.object? Well, it's obviously a consideration but however, you ever

:37:41. > :37:46.to lack at it in the cold light of day and the legal test is, was the

:37:47. > :37:49.officer's actions reasonable in trying to remove something out of

:37:50. > :38:02.the person's mouth, if that's what they were trying to do? Fanned that

:38:03. > :38:06.in any way -- if that contributed to that person, you know, being

:38:07. > :38:12.traumatised in some way, that has to be taken into consideration. Those

:38:13. > :38:21.are the things that, yes, it may be seen as a cause for some form of

:38:22. > :38:25.defence, but ultimately, it will be looked at under legal tests of

:38:26. > :38:31.whether it's proportionate and whether it's necessary. Former

:38:32. > :38:35.Metropolitan Police superintendent Leroy Logan. Britain's Chris Froome

:38:36. > :38:40.has won the Tour de France for the fourth time in five years. This is

:38:41. > :38:47.what he said after winning. Incredible feeling to ride on to the

:38:48. > :38:51.Elysee, even after having done it three times previously, it doesn't

:38:52. > :38:54.diminish it at all. It's still all the same emotions are here. It's

:38:55. > :39:01.just incredible. Absolutely incredible. That is astonishing,

:39:02. > :39:05.winning it takes more mental and physical preparation probably than

:39:06. > :39:10.any other event. This tour in particular probably one of the most

:39:11. > :39:16.ferocious. Three weeks, cyclists race 2,000 miles up some of the most

:39:17. > :39:20.difficult hills imaginable. So why doesn't Chris Froome get the

:39:21. > :39:27.recognition he deserves, why doesn't he get the love he deserves from the

:39:28. > :39:30.British public. Let's talk to one of the country's leading cyclists.

:39:31. > :39:34.We'll also hear from Michael Hutchinson on his way back from

:39:35. > :39:38.Paris. David you say Chris Froome is one of the greatest sportsmen of

:39:39. > :39:42.all-time, explain why you believe that? He's won the Tour de France

:39:43. > :39:46.four times and you could easily argue that the Tour de France is the

:39:47. > :39:53.single greatest sporting event, certainly the most gruelling. For

:39:54. > :40:00.anybody to win that four times is pretty astonishing an achievement.

:40:01. > :40:07.You don't have roads to train on, you don't have proper bikes. This is

:40:08. > :40:14.a guy who learnt to cycle. He was a very middle class white kid living

:40:15. > :40:23.in they Roby, he learns to sickle. He goes and lives in a township and

:40:24. > :40:31.survives -- in Nairobi and learns to cycle. You never expect he can end

:40:32. > :40:36.up at the Tour de France and win the race four times. In my view, he's

:40:37. > :40:42.won it clean and I think he's doing an incredible amount to try to

:40:43. > :40:46.restore cycling's lost trust. I'm not sure that he's succeeded, but

:40:47. > :40:50.he's certainly, you know, made his contribution to a very difficult

:40:51. > :40:57.situation. Why don't the British public love him more? I think a lot

:40:58. > :41:02.of people who understand cycling and sport, who understand people do love

:41:03. > :41:11.him. There's plenty of people who don't understand him. I mean, I read

:41:12. > :41:14.this morning he wasn't on the list for BBC Sports personality of the

:41:15. > :41:22.year, sorry it makes a mockery of that. He wasn't on it. The

:41:23. > :41:27.knighthoods that Bradley Wiggins and Dave Brailsford receives, nothing

:41:28. > :41:31.more deserving than a case of Chris Froome for a knighthood. He was born

:41:32. > :41:36.in Kenya, he felt he was British but he's never lived here, which is

:41:37. > :41:41.true, but it would have been a much more romantic story had Chris

:41:42. > :41:45.embraced his kind of Kenyan roots and said, I'm Kenyan, but he didn't

:41:46. > :41:48.feel Kenyan and couldn't fake it. Is that one of the reasons he doesn't

:41:49. > :41:53.live here or play the celebrity game, you know, you are not going to

:41:54. > :41:58.see him having selfies with Paul Weller, for example, or what about

:41:59. > :42:04.Team Sky's difficulties with Bradley Wiggins and the therapeutic use

:42:05. > :42:07.exemptions and the Jiffy bag? Yes, that definitely has seriously

:42:08. > :42:14.impacted on Team Sky with their credibility. It's impacted on

:42:15. > :42:19.Bradley and Dave. The rider most critical of what went on at Team Sky

:42:20. > :42:23.at that time was Chris Froome. He's never supported Dave Brailsford on

:42:24. > :42:29.this, he's been almost hostile towards what happened at that time

:42:30. > :42:33.and that's much to his credit. But the public really, I mean, it's

:42:34. > :42:37.called Sports Personality of the Year for a reason, people latch on

:42:38. > :42:42.to who they see as personalities. The person they love may not be the

:42:43. > :42:48.person who is loved inside the locker room. Chris Froome is adored

:42:49. > :42:55.by the people who write for him. A Polish guy wrote this year about

:42:56. > :42:59.him, he's a young guy, he's a real star of the sport, he completely

:43:00. > :43:05.devoted himself to Chris Froome and I mean I've been covering the France

:43:06. > :43:09.for over 30 years and I would reckon he was the single greatest of

:43:10. > :43:17.keeping his performance of one man subverting all of his own ambition

:43:18. > :43:23.to help his leader. He literally Torode a stand still, he was on a

:43:24. > :43:27.climb -- literally on a rode to a stand still. He couldn't turn the

:43:28. > :43:32.pedals any more. He literally had to stop, put his foot down and try to

:43:33. > :43:36.start again and Froome inspires that kind of loyalty. And team ethic.

:43:37. > :43:40.Yes. Thank you, David, very interesting, thank you. Let me bring

:43:41. > :43:44.in Michael Hutchinson. What is it about Team Sky, what do they have

:43:45. > :43:50.that other teams don't, apart from Chris Froome? ! Team Sky have the

:43:51. > :43:54.highest budget probably of any sports team and they know how to

:43:55. > :43:59.spend it. They're very ruthless and focussed. They analyse the course

:44:00. > :44:04.this year in huge detail, they computer model parts of the courses

:44:05. > :44:09.to discover the best way to ride it. They brought a traditional sport

:44:10. > :44:14.that thrived on flare and panache, they've modernised that. Some people

:44:15. > :44:18.like that a lot better than others. They've got money and know how to

:44:19. > :44:31.spend it so they spend it wisely. On what sort of things, Michael? They

:44:32. > :44:41.spend it on wind tunnel testing. They work on bikes, they've got the

:44:42. > :44:46.best coaches, the best expertise and it's the margin of things. Dave

:44:47. > :44:53.Brailsford when he was in charge of Team GB, it's that brought along to

:44:54. > :44:56.the road cycling. What mental strength does it take to win the

:44:57. > :45:01.Tour de France on several occasions? It's extraordinary. The Tour de

:45:02. > :45:05.France, OK, obviously I'm biassed, I cannot think of another event that

:45:06. > :45:09.is quite as physically relentless and gruelling as three weeks of

:45:10. > :45:12.racing five to six hours a day every day and the mental pressure on

:45:13. > :45:18.someone like Chris Froome. He doesn't get a day off. There are

:45:19. > :45:21.flat stages that are physically easier for him, but he always has to

:45:22. > :45:24.be in the right place, concentrating, never to be caught

:45:25. > :45:28.out. He's in a position now where he's more likely to Les a Tour de

:45:29. > :45:30.France than to win it and you lose it by making a small, silly mistake.

:45:31. > :45:45.Thank you very much, Michael. Some comments from you. Brenda says

:45:46. > :45:50.I always look forward to the Tour de France and I watch it excitedly but

:45:51. > :45:54.the drug revelations of the past spoiled it for me. I didn't watch

:45:55. > :45:59.this tour and I didn't feel elation hearing about Chris Froome's win.

:46:00. > :46:00.And this one, what is the obsession the BBC has about Chris Froome not

:46:01. > :46:07.being loved? Thank you for those. Scientists say they're examining

:46:08. > :46:10.a potential breakthrough in the case of the missing Sheffield toddler,

:46:11. > :46:12.Ben Needham, who disappeared on the Greek island of Kos

:46:13. > :46:14.26 years ago today. Human material has been found

:46:15. > :46:25.in soil samples gathered last Then was 21 months old when he

:46:26. > :46:29.disappeared and his mother had spent the last two and a half decades

:46:30. > :46:35.searching for her son. We can speak to her now. Good morning. Thank you

:46:36. > :46:42.very much for talking to us. I wonder how you respond to the fact

:46:43. > :46:47.that signs of blood have been found on part of a sandal and on soil

:46:48. > :46:56.inside a toy car recovered by the police searching for your son? It is

:46:57. > :47:06.devastating, obviously. We believed what the police told us last year.

:47:07. > :47:10.They didn't have any hard evidence, it was just information they

:47:11. > :47:21.collected from people on Kos and people coming forward. But obviously

:47:22. > :47:31.the samples were traced. They have found what they found and that just

:47:32. > :47:34.confirms it for us. I am finding it quite hard to hear you but we are

:47:35. > :47:41.going to persist, if that is all right with you. That's fine. I will

:47:42. > :47:45.try and speak louder but it is very emotional today so it is difficult

:47:46. > :47:52.to talk. I understand and I am very grateful that you are speaking to

:47:53. > :47:56.us. The Detective Inspector in charge of the investigation, John

:47:57. > :48:02.cousins, says it is still his professional belief that Ben died in

:48:03. > :48:09.an accident at that farmhouse. What do you think? I think so. We have

:48:10. > :48:16.worked very closely with John and the team over the last few years. I

:48:17. > :48:23.couldn't wish for better detectives to have taken on this case and

:48:24. > :48:32.helped. I 100% believe what John believes. When the information that

:48:33. > :48:36.has been released to the public today comes out, what effect does

:48:37. > :48:44.that have on you? Devastating, devastating. Because now we know not

:48:45. > :48:55.only was there an accident at the time, we now know that Ben was taken

:48:56. > :48:58.from the farmhouse and buried somewhere at the second site and

:48:59. > :49:04.then possibly taken from that site and put elsewhere. It is horrific to

:49:05. > :49:17.think that somebody could do that to a small child. It is devastating. I

:49:18. > :49:21.am really sorry. I can't understand how any human being could do such a

:49:22. > :49:30.thing. It is horrific, absolutely horrific. I wonder if you could give

:49:31. > :49:37.our audience a little insight into the impact on you of spending all

:49:38. > :49:49.this time trying to find out what happened to your little boy. It has

:49:50. > :49:54.made me a very strong and independent person but it has also

:49:55. > :49:59.torn mine and my family's lives apart. We will never be able to live

:50:00. > :50:05.like a normal family. The search for Ben has always come first.

:50:06. > :50:11.Throughout the last 26 years. Traumatic. You live your life on a

:50:12. > :50:16.roller-coaster constantly, up and down, up and down, trying to deal

:50:17. > :50:22.with emotions, depression, anxiety, torment, anger, frustration,

:50:23. > :50:27.everything, week after week, month after month, year after year. It is

:50:28. > :50:34.totally soul destroying. For these people to have watched this all

:50:35. > :50:38.these years as well. These people have seen myself and my family on TV

:50:39. > :50:43.begging and pleading for information and they kept it secret 26 years. I

:50:44. > :50:53.don't know how anybody could do that to a family that has clearly given

:50:54. > :50:56.their lives to trying to find him. You definitely believe that there

:50:57. > :51:01.are some people still alive who know what happened and they should come

:51:02. > :51:11.forward? Yes, I do. I do believe that. Definitely. At least one

:51:12. > :51:19.person. I am 100% sure of that. I am sure the police would say that as

:51:20. > :51:25.well. It has been one big cover-up to protect the man that had the

:51:26. > :51:29.accident in the first place. I just think if these people have got any

:51:30. > :51:31.ounce of humanity left in their bodies, they should let us know

:51:32. > :51:36.where he is. They could do it anonymously. They don't have to give

:51:37. > :51:40.their name. They could send an email to the police, even directed to

:51:41. > :51:49.myself. We just want to find where he is now. Thank you very much. We

:51:50. > :52:01.really appreciate your time. Thank you for talking to us on the

:52:02. > :52:05.programme today. Thank you. Kerry Needham appealing for the one person

:52:06. > :52:09.who she believes has information to come forward and get in touch with

:52:10. > :52:15.the police and help them find Ben. Next on the programme, Prince

:52:16. > :52:19.William reveals how he tells his children stories about their late

:52:20. > :52:22.grandmother, Diana Princess of Wales. Prince Harry also speaks

:52:23. > :52:26.candidly about their relationship with their mother. It is an an ITV

:52:27. > :52:32.documentary that goes out tonight as they approach the 20th anniversary

:52:33. > :52:36.of Diana's death. It includes moving tributes from Sir Elton John and the

:52:37. > :52:41.princes speak of their regret that their last conversation with their

:52:42. > :52:46.mother was rushed phone call. A photograph of the two boys made

:52:47. > :52:51.public for the first time sums up the sense of fun described by Prince

:52:52. > :52:54.William. Two decades on from her death, Prince William describes how

:52:55. > :53:02.he keeps Diana's memory alive for his children. Constantly talking

:53:03. > :53:10.about granny Diana. We have photos around. It is hard because Catherine

:53:11. > :53:14.didn't know her. She cannot really provide that level of detail. I

:53:15. > :53:20.regularly when I put George and Charlotte to bed talk about her. I

:53:21. > :53:24.remind them that there were two grandmothers in their lives and it

:53:25. > :53:29.is important that they know who she was and she existed. Prince Harry

:53:30. > :53:33.was 12 when his mother died. He reflects with one of her friends,

:53:34. > :53:40.self and John, about the work they did as committed AIDS activists. --

:53:41. > :53:47.Sir Elton John. It was considered to be a gay disease. Was someone within

:53:48. > :53:52.the royal family, a woman, straight, to have someone care from the other

:53:53. > :53:57.side was an incredible gift. And you can see it as well. You look back to

:53:58. > :54:03.these days, when the reality was doom and gloom. The reality then was

:54:04. > :54:08.doom and gloom, yet everybody in that photograph is smiling. Because

:54:09. > :54:13.of her. She had an energy, a radiance. Look at her face in every

:54:14. > :54:16.photograph, there is a positive, wonderful glow. She had this

:54:17. > :54:22.incredible ability that he inherited from me, and I said thank you, to

:54:23. > :54:27.make them feel that everything would be all right. I haven't experienced

:54:28. > :54:30.many people who had that ability. She could walk into a room of people

:54:31. > :54:36.and make them feel that everything was great. Wow. The brothers recall

:54:37. > :54:40.the last time they spoke to her and they reflect on the overwhelming

:54:41. > :54:47.public reaction and how they coped with the week that culminated in her

:54:48. > :54:51.funeral. In the documentary, Diana's children share their most intimate

:54:52. > :54:58.memories of her. This is quite a special picture. It is quite sweet.

:54:59. > :55:02.It is the first time that the two of us have ever spoken about her as a

:55:03. > :55:08.mother. Believe it or not, you and I are both in this photograph. You are

:55:09. > :55:17.in her tummy. Arguably a little bit to draw up until this point. It is

:55:18. > :55:21.still raw. -- little bit too raw. Not many days go by that I don't

:55:22. > :55:24.think about her. The 20th anniversary seems like a good time

:55:25. > :55:27.to remember all the good things about her and hopefully provide a

:55:28. > :55:32.different side to know that others have not seen before. We felt

:55:33. > :55:42.incredibly loved, Harry and I. I am very grateful that the love still

:55:43. > :55:44.feels there. It was that love. Even if she was on the other side of the

:55:45. > :56:00.room, as her son, you could feel it. Our mother was a total paid through

:56:01. > :56:04.and through. When everybody says to me, she was fun, give us an example,

:56:05. > :56:19.all I can hear is her laughter in my head. That crazy laughter, just pure

:56:20. > :56:24.happiness showing on her face. One of her motto is to me was you can be

:56:25. > :56:27.as naughty as you want, just don't get caught. She was one of the

:56:28. > :56:32.naughtiest parents. She would come and watch us play football and

:56:33. > :56:36.smuggle sweets into our socks. I remember walking back from the

:56:37. > :56:45.football match and having five packets of Starburst. That

:56:46. > :56:51.documentary is broadcast on ITV and STV at nine o'clock tonight. Thank

:56:52. > :57:03.you for your emails about being gay and coming out, and the way people

:57:04. > :57:05.reacted. It is 50 years since the decriminalisation of two grown

:57:06. > :57:09.consenting men having sex, effectively. 50 years this week.

:57:10. > :57:13.David said he moved from Aldershot where he was not only out as gay but

:57:14. > :57:21.about his involvement with the international AIDS crisis. I was

:57:22. > :57:25.never assaulted in a military town. That was in Margaret Thatcher's

:57:26. > :57:29.time. But having gone back into the closet in Exeter so I could care for

:57:30. > :57:35.my elderly parents, I was attacked six times in the thirsty and the

:57:36. > :57:41.police didn't do. After several more police constables, things are

:57:42. > :57:44.improving but I am still being hassled by so-called Christians. Now

:57:45. > :57:51.it is the politicians refusing to act. And this one, it is good to

:57:52. > :57:55.offer people the opportunity to comment anonymously but it is sad

:57:56. > :57:59.that people have got to. As a bisexual woman I have never

:58:00. > :58:03.experienced prejudice. Maybe because it is taking the least seriously.

:58:04. > :58:10.Most straight men find the notion titillating. I have been with the

:58:11. > :58:14.men and the amount of times I am asked if I bring other women home to

:58:15. > :58:18.him is ridiculous. Monogamy is monogamy, no matter what happens

:58:19. > :58:22.between someone's legs. Thank you for that, Christina, and thank you

:58:23. > :58:25.for giving your name. Tomorrow we hear from former Jehovah's Witnesses

:58:26. > :58:29.who say they have been shunned by their community and their religion

:58:30. > :58:32.after leaving it. Thank you for your company and have a good day.
