:04:18. > :04:21.Three terrified women with injuries to their faces and heads. One victim
:04:22. > :04:29.running screaming in the corridor of the hotel in bloodstained pyjamas.
:04:30. > :04:34.That is the scene that police officers found in a seventh floor
:04:35. > :04:38.suite in this hotel. Just before emergency services arrived at seven
:04:39. > :04:43.o'clock in the morning, it is believed the man had managed to get
:04:44. > :04:48.inside the adjoining bedrooms were the women and children were asleep.
:04:49. > :04:52.Police believe it was an attempted robbery, but he disturbed the women
:04:53. > :04:56.and launched a vicious assault on them with a hammer which she left
:04:57. > :04:59.behind on the floor. The three women are believed to be from the United
:05:00. > :05:03.Arab Emirates. Headlines about the attack have already reached that
:05:04. > :05:06.country. This hotel is very popular with people from that part of the
:05:07. > :05:13.world, particularly wealthy tourists, because you have though
:05:14. > :05:16.retail paradise of Oxford Street. Families are becoming understandably
:05:17. > :05:22.concerned about loved ones staying in London. A journalist for an
:05:23. > :05:26.Arabic newspaper has spoken to the victim's family. Yes, I saw a friend
:05:27. > :05:34.of the family, a cousin, of the three sisters. They are saying that
:05:35. > :05:41.the person who attacked them, he did not steal, basically, nothing. He
:05:42. > :05:47.just attacked them and left. Forensic vans parked outside the
:05:48. > :05:55.hotel, a reminder to guest they are staying in a crime scene. This is a
:05:56. > :06:00.very secure hotel, wealthy foreigners stay here, card keys are
:06:01. > :06:04.used. How did they get in? Early indications are that hotel and room
:06:05. > :06:07.security was not breached and it would appear that the room had been
:06:08. > :06:14.left unlocked by the family. The Hotel CCTV is likely to hold the
:06:15. > :06:17.greatest clues. But as Scotland Yard launched a nationwide manhunt, they
:06:18. > :06:23.are appealing for witnesses to come forward.
:06:24. > :06:28.Next, the question of prissy when it comes to pictures of you on the
:06:29. > :06:31.tube. Images of women eating on the underground taken without their
:06:32. > :06:33.knowledge, have been posted on social media sites, where they
:06:34. > :06:40.attract offensive comments. It's not illegal but, as Tarah Welsh reports,
:06:41. > :06:44.it Is raising concerns about privacy on the internet. Most people have
:06:45. > :06:49.some kind of camera on their phone that they can film or take pictures
:06:50. > :06:52.with. As broadcasters, if we want to record secretly we have got to
:06:53. > :06:59.justify it by going through legal and editorial guidelines. If someone
:07:00. > :07:01.takes a picture of you on the tube or another public place without you
:07:02. > :07:08.knowing, that is not against the law. There is a Facebook group
:07:09. > :07:12.called Women Who Eat On Shoots. It does what it says on the tin,
:07:13. > :07:17.posting shots of women that do not know they have been snapped. That is
:07:18. > :07:21.what happened to Sophie, pictured eating a salad on the Metropolitan
:07:22. > :07:26.line. I was I rate, I was angry and wanted to do something about it. The
:07:27. > :07:29.wider phenomenon, the wider trend, is to judge people based on a chance
:07:30. > :07:33.encounter and take one small moment of their life and make that
:07:34. > :07:39.permanent. Regardless of whether that person knows they are on that
:07:40. > :07:43.site, they are the crux of an in joke that they are not in on. She
:07:44. > :07:46.wrote an article about her experience which sparked a debate
:07:47. > :07:50.about why people would want to take is photos and if they should be
:07:51. > :07:53.allowed. The founder of the group says it is the media attention that
:07:54. > :07:58.has boosted membership of the site, which is just a social observation.
:07:59. > :08:02.I'm guilty of theft, in a way, we are stealing a moment, quite a
:08:03. > :08:09.private moment. But there is no harmful intent. There is nothing
:08:10. > :08:13.wrong with taking photos of people on the Tube. There was nothing wrong
:08:14. > :08:17.with eating on the tube, in the eyes of the law or the rules. The problem
:08:18. > :08:21.with groups like this and these kind of photos is that they are taken
:08:22. > :08:25.secretly. Without you knowing, your picture goes from someone's
:08:26. > :08:28.smartphone to a social network and can be passed around hundreds of
:08:29. > :08:33.millions of people. I think that is the problem that this idea of
:08:34. > :08:36.consent and privity really struggles within the modern age. The group
:08:37. > :08:44.says it will take down pictures of someone complains, but some people
:08:45. > :08:51.won't ever know they were on it. It teenage footballer who murdered a

:11:10. > :11:12.When you could see what it was doing to everyone else around you, that is

:11:28. > :11:33.children about what happened to her aunt to them. She also plans therapy

:13:42. > :13:45.the single biggest charity fundraising event in the world. One
:13:46. > :13:50.of the main beneficiaries is a trust which funded the research for new
:13:51. > :13:57.high`tech platforms to help less mobile swimmers enjoy the water
:13:58. > :13:59.more. On Sunday, 35,000 runners will take
:14:00. > :14:06.to the streets for the 34th London Marathon. As Mo mania will build,
:14:07. > :14:13.today, the London charitable trust unveiled pool pods, a submersible
:14:14. > :14:16.platform to help the less mobile get in and out of swimming pools.
:14:17. > :14:21.Nothing to do with running, but everything to do with getting
:14:22. > :14:24.active. We are trying to encourage people who are not doing sport
:14:25. > :14:30.already into sport. Removing the barriers from them to compete. They
:14:31. > :14:35.ran an international competition to find a new design that would replace
:14:36. > :14:38.the hoists found that most pools. Take a chance for disabled people to
:14:39. > :14:43.get into the water independently without relying on the lifeguard all
:14:44. > :14:47.the time. Less people will be staring, because the hoist can take
:14:48. > :14:50.a long time. I think it's great, loads of people are thinking about
:14:51. > :14:56.disabled people rather than ignoring it. It's not just the disabled that
:14:57. > :15:00.can use the platform. Somebody recovering from an operation,
:15:01. > :15:04.somebody that has a long`term condition, limited mobility, it
:15:05. > :15:12.could be somebody that is just trying to get two young children
:15:13. > :15:15.into the pool and can't manage. The London Marathon charitable trust
:15:16. > :15:19.have funded 12 pool pods up and down the country, but five of them are
:15:20. > :15:22.here in the capital. There are two arty aquatics centre and there is
:15:23. > :15:29.one in Hillingdon, Lambeth and another in Mile End. It's money
:15:30. > :15:33.raised by fun runners that make these kind of projects possible. I
:15:34. > :15:35.thought it was only right after events at the Sheffield half
:15:36. > :15:40.marathon to know that London is ready. Have you checked your water
:15:41. > :15:51.supply this morning? I have, it is in our stores and will be out there
:15:52. > :15:59.no problems with that. And some brilliant work going on. But there
:16:00. > :16:04.will be a lot of focus on Mo Farah. Exactly. I was speaking to the chief
:16:05. > :16:08.executive of the London Marathon and already they have had more hits on
:16:09. > :16:14.the website and they want to know where they can watch the race and it
:16:15. > :16:19.is the Mo Farah factor. He is running his first ever 26.2 miles.
:16:20. > :16:24.We know him as a long distance runner, but Marathon running is a
:16:25. > :16:28.different discipline and that is the excitement surrounding him being in
:16:29. > :16:34.the race. On top of that he only went half way last year and there
:16:35. > :16:38.was a lot of excitement over that. But tomorrow will be a significant
:16:39. > :16:42.day in the build`up as he will be talking to all the world's media for
:16:43. > :16:49.the first time about how his preparation has gone. And more on
:16:50. > :16:54.that tomorrow. Thank you very much. He is one of the world's best`known
:16:55. > :17:00.designers from avant`garde fashion to couture. Now John Paul

:17:06. > :17:13.year career. Brenda Emmanus went to meet him ahead of the show's opening
:17:14. > :17:19.this week. Dubbed the informed Terry Block of fashion since his early
:17:20. > :17:24.catwalk shows of the 70s, John Paul Gaultier has built his reputation on
:17:25. > :17:28.dairy inventiveness, producing work that reflects his all embracing
:17:29. > :17:35.attitude to the world and everyone in it. A new exhibition at the
:17:36. > :17:39.Barbican celebrates his witty, boundary pushing designs, to cutting
:17:40. > :17:44.edge couture. A reckless bet if of your work is a delight for your
:17:45. > :17:48.fans, but it must be an extraordinary experience for you to
:17:49. > :17:53.see all of this out here. To be honest at the beginning when there
:17:54. > :18:01.was an idea of a retrospective I thought, I am that old? But we make
:18:02. > :18:09.it come alive. I wanted it to be very much alive and like a lot of
:18:10. > :18:13.surprises. It is certainly a surprising theatrical installation
:18:14. > :18:18.with talking mannequins and striking displays, showcasing his
:18:19. > :18:25.collaborations with the likely is of Madonna and Kylie Minogue. The
:18:26. > :18:35.profession opens so many doors. All that is extra and fabulous. But I
:18:36. > :18:40.love to discover people unknown and you can be as friendly with them as
:18:41. > :18:46.much as anybody else, it is not only celebrities. This exhibition has
:18:47. > :18:51.been seen in North America and Europe and now it comes to the city
:18:52. > :18:55.which the designer admits is close to his heart. The exhibition has
:18:56. > :19:01.been expanded to include cultural styles like punk and the Londoners
:19:02. > :19:07.who have inspired the work. The exhibition takes inspiration from
:19:08. > :19:15.the streets. We discovered that his work is timeless. The show runs
:19:16. > :19:20.until August. He is the 19`year`old from Hackney
:19:21. > :19:26.who has just landed a major record deal. Jermain Jackman won the public
:19:27. > :19:31.vote on the BBC's talent showed the voice on Saturday night. We will

:19:46. > :20:05.Lovely! It is germane. And I am delighted to say that
:20:06. > :20:12.Jermain Jackman joins as fresh from that went at the weekend. How does
:20:13. > :20:16.it feel watching that back? It feels so weird. There is no way to
:20:17. > :20:23.describe it. I still get nervous from watching it and I am still in a
:20:24. > :20:29.bus. I am still on a buzz today because I have been doing interviews
:20:30. > :20:35.back`to`back from Sunday morning until now. Has it sunk in at all
:20:36. > :20:41.what you have achieved? It has not sunk in at all. I am still trying to
:20:42. > :20:47.pinch myself. This is a show I would normally sit on my couch and watch.
:20:48. > :20:53.That is good to hear. To be on its now is so unreal. I want to thank
:20:54. > :20:58.everybody who voted for me so much. And your family go through this
:20:59. > :21:02.whole journey with you, they must be so proud. They have been supporting
:21:03. > :21:09.everything I do and it is important to have that support network. My mum
:21:10. > :21:13.is the best ever. We can see you there singing during the final. He
:21:14. > :21:20.is an interesting character. What was he like to have as a mental? He
:21:21. > :21:26.was the best, he was fantastic, I had so much fun with him. That duet
:21:27. > :21:31.was fun because on TV it looked like magic how we were popping up here
:21:32. > :21:37.and there and everywhere, and in the studio we had to run across the
:21:38. > :21:43.stage and hit our cues on point and that is why I was breathless. He is
:21:44. > :21:49.creative to say the least. Definitely. He is really hands on.
:21:50. > :21:55.He put a hip`hop beat behind something and people thought, can it
:21:56. > :21:59.work? But it flowed with it and I watched how his mind worked and it
:22:00. > :22:04.was amazing. I know you have said it has all been a bit of a blur, but do
:22:05. > :22:08.you remember what it was like, that moment when you are standing on
:22:09. > :22:16.stage and you hear the words that you have one? Of course, I needed to
:22:17. > :22:25.go to the toilet. I had been waiting in force that waiting for it for so
:22:26. > :22:30.long. It was a fantastic opportunity and a fantastic experience to be
:22:31. > :22:36.amongst Tom Jones and Kylie Minogue. It was so amazing. What happens
:22:37. > :22:42.next? I will record some music and make some hits. I have got a record
:22:43. > :22:47.deal and it will be fantastic to do this and fly across the world and
:22:48. > :22:53.record it and perform. What is this about you wanting to be the first
:22:54. > :23:04.singing, black prime minister? Is it right? It is on my to do list. It is
:23:05. > :23:07.something I would love to do, I would love to be a Prime Minister
:23:08. > :23:11.and create policies for our society. I want to use my success in music to
:23:12. > :23:14.give back to my local community. I want to put something into society
:23:15. > :23:20.and I want to start my own music school in Hackney where we will
:23:21. > :23:26.prepare disadvantaged kids in English, maths and science and also
:23:27. > :23:31.with music and connect them to a record label and further education.
:23:32. > :23:37.I know well I am is very keen on things like that. How will you be
:23:38. > :23:44.perceived back in Hackney? You will be received for all the right
:23:45. > :23:50.reasons. I did not know there were so many people supporting me. In
:23:51. > :23:55.Dalston there were loads of people shouting my name and chanting my
:23:56. > :24:01.name and it was so overwhelming. The support from Hackney has been so
:24:02. > :24:04.humbling really. Good on them and congratulations to you and thank you
:24:05. > :24:07.for joining us. A real pleasure to meet you.
:24:08. > :24:19.Let's get a check on the weather. We have some fairly wild weather
:24:20. > :24:24.edging towards London at the moment. You know about it in Berkshire and
:24:25. > :24:29.Surrey. There is some very intense rain going through with some squally
:24:30. > :24:35.winds. They were easier way to the east this evening. It has been a
:24:36. > :24:38.pretty wet day anyway. This was the first band of rain that went through
:24:39. > :24:43.this morning and it stuck around during the day. This weather front
:24:44. > :24:48.is coming through at the moment which is where the intense rainfall
:24:49. > :24:54.is at the moment which could give us gusts of wind of up to 50 miles an
:24:55. > :24:58.hour for some short, sharp bursts. It could create problems for the
:24:59. > :25:03.airport. Eventually it moves away and by nine o'clock we will see the
:25:04. > :25:09.back of it. Then there are a few showers cropping up here and there
:25:10. > :25:13.overnight and the breeze will stay noticeable, if not quite as gusty
:25:14. > :25:21.and squally as it will be in the next couple of hours. Sticking at
:25:22. > :25:27.six or seven degrees in urban areas. We started the day tomorrow with a
:25:28. > :25:32.risk of 12 showers, but for the most part it will be a dry day. There
:25:33. > :25:36.will be a noticeable breeze from a westerly direction and temperatures
:25:37. > :25:41.will be pretty average for this time of the year. As we go through this
:25:42. > :25:46.week we have got a lot of high pressure and that means it is going
:25:47. > :25:50.to stay fairly settled. For Wednesday there will be some sunny
:25:51. > :25:57.spells and it will be warm enough. Generally there will be a bit more
:25:58. > :26:03.cloud around. On Thursday there is a bit of uncertainty about the
:26:04. > :26:08.progress of a weather front in from the north. For the most part it will
:26:09. > :26:15.be a dry day with sunshine breaking through from time to time. That goes
:26:16. > :26:17.for Friday as well. Some squally, rainy conditions to come, but then
:26:18. > :26:27.turning out to dry. Can I apologise if you were
:26:28. > :26:32.expecting to see a report on allegations of police corruption at
:26:33. > :26:35.the Met which we headlined tonight. Due to technical difficulties we
:26:36. > :26:43.were unable to bring it to you, but we hope to have it on our late news
:26:44. > :26:48.tonight at 10:25pm. The headlines: Oscar Pistorius has apologised to
:26:49. > :26:51.the family of his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp for killing her. Giving
:26:52. > :26:56.evidence he said he could not imagine the pain, sorrow and
:26:57. > :27:12.emptiness he had caused her family. Peaches Geldof, the daughter of Sir
:27:13. > :27:15.Bob Geldof and the late Paul Yates, has died at the age of 25. Police
:27:16. > :27:18.were called this afternoon to an address in Kent. At this moment it
:27:19. > :27:19.is being treated as an unexplained and sudden death.
:27:20. > :27:22.Two British women have drowned in the Canary Islands after trying to
:27:23. > :27:26.save their children from the sea. The children survived. And police
:27:27. > :27:30.are hunting a man who attacked three women with a hammer in the
:27:31. > :27:35.Cumberland hotel in marble arch. It was in the bedroom where the women
:27:36. > :27:40.and three children were sleeping in adjoining rooms. Thank you very much
:27:41. > :27:44.for joining us. I will be back with the latest during the ten o'clock
:27:45. > :27:47.News. Enjoy your evening. Goodbye.
