:01:33. > :01:36.BBC News at One. Seven British tourists have been

:01:36. > :01:39.killed in a plane crash in Nepal this morning. In total, 19 people

:01:39. > :01:43.were on board, there were no survivors. The Britons, all men

:01:43. > :01:46.aged between 27 and 60, had booked their trip to Everest base camp

:01:46. > :01:49.through a travel company in Hampshire. They were due to start a

:01:49. > :01:52.two-week trek today. Their relatives have been informed. The

:01:52. > :01:56.cause of the crash hasn't been confirmed, but it's thought it may

:01:56. > :01:59.have been a bird strike. The plane, which was heading for Lukla close

:01:59. > :02:09.to Everest, came down in Kathmandu shortly after take-off. Daniel

:02:09. > :02:12.Boettcher reports. Engulfed in flames, the wreckage of

:02:12. > :02:16.the twin-engined aircraft lies a short distance from Kathmandu

:02:16. > :02:20.Airport. It had been in the year for two minutes when the pilot

:02:20. > :02:25.reported difficulties. Witnesses said it was on fire when it crashed

:02:25. > :02:31.but that has not been confirmed. This man said the flames burnt all

:02:31. > :02:35.parts of the plane. All 19 on board the small aircraft died. The

:02:35. > :02:39.Foreign Office has confirmed seven passengers were British. Five were

:02:39. > :02:44.Chinese. The other passengers and crew were from the poor. The

:02:44. > :02:48.wreckage was pointing back towards the airport. It is possible the

:02:49. > :02:52.pilot was trying to make an emergency landing near river. The

:02:53. > :02:58.aircraft at a craft here this year was operated by a local company,

:02:58. > :03:02.Sita Air, one of many planes used to take passengers on a trekking

:03:02. > :03:10.tours. Investigators are trying to establish the cause of the crash.

:03:10. > :03:14.One official said the plane had struck a bird. We do know that

:03:14. > :03:18.bulges tentacle get around Kathmandu Airport. It is a

:03:18. > :03:25.possibility. There are lots of other possibilities as well,

:04:15. > :04:20.macro in his them that aircraft. But this is that happened in the

:04:20. > :04:23.capital. What is surprising is where it happened. You would not

:04:23. > :04:28.expect the plane to crash in Kathmandu. The really dangerous

:04:28. > :04:34.part of the flight is flying into lucky macro because Lukla airport

:04:34. > :04:38.is 500 metres long, with a drop at one end and a cliff at the other.

:04:38. > :04:42.Investigators are still at the scene, one of the flight recorders

:04:42. > :04:50.has been recovered and should not establish the circumstances of this

:04:50. > :04:53.accident. -- should establish. The seven Britons who've died have

:04:53. > :04:55.been named by a travel company in Nepal as: 58-year-old Raymond Eagle,

:04:55. > :04:58.from Macclesfield. 51-year-old Christopher Davey. Vincent and

:04:58. > :05:01.Darren Kelly, in their 40s and 50s. 57-year-old Timothy Oakes. 60-year-

:05:01. > :05:04.old Stephen Holding. And Ben Ogden who was 27.

:05:04. > :05:06.The Foreign Office says the families of those who've died have

:05:06. > :05:09.been informed. Our South Asia correspondent Andrew

:05:09. > :05:12.North is in Dharamsala in the Himalayas.

:05:12. > :05:15.This is a well-travelled route for trekkers heading to the Everest

:05:15. > :05:25.region. There have been some concerns about the safety of these

:05:25. > :05:28.

:05:28. > :05:34.flights recently. Party is right. It is very well-

:05:34. > :05:38.travelled route, in fact, more than 30,000 British people good in the

:05:38. > :05:44.bought every year, most of them to go trekking. Lucky macro is a main

:05:44. > :05:49.destination. Every day, they fly out of Kathmandu Airport on small

:05:49. > :05:56.aeroplanes, a journey I have made several times to go climbing in the

:05:56. > :06:01.Himalayas. As your contributor was saying, one question which will be

:06:01. > :06:07.asked is, why it happened, this crash, on what is the safest part

:06:07. > :06:17.of that journey. The most dangerous part his landing in lucky macro,

:06:17. > :06:18.

:06:18. > :06:21.perched on a cliff, where there have been many crashes -- in Lukla.

:06:21. > :06:26.Investigators are already beginning to try to work out what happened.

:06:26. > :06:31.They have the flight data recorders. There is a report of bird strike,

:06:31. > :06:35.but experts think it is unlikely. There are reports the pilot had

:06:35. > :06:42.turned back to the airport, after some other kind of technical

:06:42. > :06:47.problem. A fire was seen on the plane as it was coming in,

:06:47. > :06:51.eyewitnesses saying it came into land still burning. And some will

:06:51. > :06:57.be saying, perhaps the safety record of airlines there needs to

:06:57. > :07:01.be looked at, given the number of crashes over the past few years.

:07:02. > :07:08.Breaking news, Sussex police have said the school governor went

:07:08. > :07:12.missing a week ago with her maths teacher has been found in France.

:07:12. > :07:19.The 30-year-old teacher has been arrested, and the teenager has been

:07:19. > :07:24.taken into protection. A huge relief for the family, what are the

:07:24. > :07:30.police saying? As you said, this news is just

:07:30. > :07:38.reaching us within the last few minutes. We only have the briefest

:07:38. > :07:43.of updates from sussex police where I am now. They say that Megan and

:07:43. > :07:50.Jeremy forest have been located safe and well in France. They were

:07:50. > :07:54.found today at 12:15pm UK time. Megan has been taken into

:07:54. > :07:59.protection. They say the information which led to them being

:07:59. > :08:03.located, came as a direct result of media coverage in France. They say,

:08:03. > :08:08.at this stage, we are not confirming the specific location

:08:08. > :08:14.where they were found. Their families have been informed, and

:08:14. > :08:21.arrangements, they say, will now be made for Megan and Jeremy's safe

:08:21. > :08:27.return. This will be of huge relief to Megan's family and Jeremy's

:08:27. > :08:34.family. His parents made a direct appeal to them yesterday. They were

:08:34. > :08:38.both very upset indeed. Both families will be relieved. We here

:08:38. > :08:43.have they were found as a result, the police believe, of the direct

:08:43. > :08:48.media coverage that was in France. The press conferences which had

:08:48. > :08:55.been held here, have been translated into French. On Tuesday,

:08:55. > :09:00.a Europe-wide arrest warrant was issued. Now, the pair have been

:09:00. > :09:03.found, in France. A review, commissioned after banks were found

:09:03. > :09:06.to be manipulating a key interest rate, has said the system for

:09:06. > :09:09.setting it is "broken". The report, by a senior City regulator,

:09:10. > :09:15.recommends an independent body to oversee the LIBOR rate, and says

:09:15. > :09:17.bankers who attempt to fix it should be prosecuted. LIBOR is used

:09:17. > :09:25.as a benchmark for millions of transactions, and determines some

:09:25. > :09:31.loan and mortgage rates. Simon Gompertz reports.

:09:31. > :09:37.The City of London's LIBOR interest rates are used to Prize 300

:09:37. > :09:47.trillion dollars of loans and mortgages around the world. Banks's

:09:47. > :09:47.

:09:47. > :09:55.tend to read the rates are ignoble scandal. -- rig. The system is

:09:55. > :09:59.broken and needs complete overhaul. Governance of LIBOR has failed,

:09:59. > :10:03.resulting in the shameful behaviour we have seen. His problem has been

:10:03. > :10:07.exacerbated by a lack of regulation and a comprehensive mechanism to

:10:08. > :10:12.punish those who manipulate the system. The London interbank

:10:12. > :10:15.offered rate depends on the honesty of banks and Traders, it relies on

:10:15. > :10:22.them telling the truth about what it costs them to borrow from each

:10:22. > :10:25.other. Barclays Bank showed that banks could not be trusted, it was

:10:25. > :10:32.fined �290 million for trying to manipulate LIBOR for its own

:10:32. > :10:36.advantage. Martin Wheatley once District the British Bankers

:10:36. > :10:41.Association from its role managing LIBOR, bringing in a new

:10:41. > :10:47.administrator, he wants tougher controls.

:10:47. > :10:52.We, as a government, will implement them as soon as we can. We will

:10:52. > :10:57.introduce legislation into the Financial Services Bill currently

:10:57. > :11:01.before Parliament. Notoriously, bike riders told each other they

:11:01. > :11:07.were always happy to help when fiddling the rates. One promising

:11:07. > :11:17.to celebrate with a bottle of Bollinger. Now, the chastened BBA

:11:17. > :11:20.

:11:20. > :11:24.Bank customers have seen scandals, and very rarely any individual held

:11:24. > :11:29.to account. It will be good to see in the future potential criminal

:11:29. > :11:33.prosecution. Martin Wheatley said the Bankers Club which managed

:11:33. > :11:38.LIBOR was callous and failed, the system was riddled with gross

:11:38. > :11:44.misconduct, and LIBOR was a toxic brand which needed to be cleansed.

:11:44. > :11:48.That process can now start but it will depend on deep cultural change

:11:48. > :11:54.happening within the banks. The reforms won't happen until next

:11:54. > :11:58.year, but there was a warning to david more Bank will face huge

:11:58. > :12:01.fines son. RBS is known to be one of them.

:12:01. > :12:04.Pregnant women will be offered a vaccination for whooping cough from

:12:04. > :12:08.next week, after the biggest outbreak of the illness for 20

:12:08. > :12:11.years. Ten babies died in the UK this year. Women in the last stages

:12:11. > :12:19.of pregnancy will be offered the jab from Monday. Our medical

:12:19. > :12:25.correspondent Fergus Walsh reports. This little girl got whooping cough

:12:25. > :12:31.when she was just four weeks, too young to be immunised. The bacteria

:12:31. > :12:36.infection has killed 10 infants this year. This little box and a

:12:36. > :12:45.mob in hospital. It is the worst thing seeing your baby during bloop

:12:46. > :12:51.and you can't do anything as a mother to help her. -- going blue.

:12:51. > :12:54.The vaccine will boost the immunity of pregnant women. Antibodies will

:12:54. > :12:59.cross to the unborn baby giving them protection and will they are

:12:59. > :13:04.old enough to be vaccinated at two months. It also protects against

:13:04. > :13:08.diphtheria, tetanus and polio, and is the same vaccine given to three-

:13:08. > :13:12.year roles as a pre-school booster. Health officials say there are no

:13:12. > :13:15.safety concerns about the vaccine and pointed to raise in the

:13:15. > :13:20.programme underweight in the United States for a year.

:13:20. > :13:27.We are talking about children who get extraordinary ill, and indeed,

:13:27. > :13:30.who die from whooping cough. That is a real risk. And that is

:13:30. > :13:35.something we need to do our utmost to prevent, to protect these babies,

:13:35. > :13:39.that is what mothers can do. There was a mixed reaction among these

:13:39. > :13:45.pregnant mothers in Bristol. Whenever a vaccine is offered to

:13:45. > :13:51.meet, in the past, with my first child, such as the swine flu and

:13:51. > :13:54.flu vaccine, I have always taken that up, that offer. It is a

:13:54. > :13:59.positive step. It is not something I would take up

:13:59. > :14:04.until I found out a bit more about it. In terms of vaccination, and

:14:05. > :14:09.tend to be wary. The vaccine programme will begin next week. It

:14:09. > :14:16.will be offered to all women between 28 have and 38 weeks of

:14:16. > :14:19.pregnancy, at their routine antenatal appointments.

:14:19. > :14:22.The brother of the former EastEnders actress, Gemma McCluskie,

:14:22. > :14:25.whose dismembered body was found in a canal in London last year, has

:14:25. > :14:29.accepted responsibility for her death. Tony McCluskie will go on

:14:29. > :14:38.trial at the Old Bailey next January, to determine whether he is

:14:38. > :14:41.Nine men have pleaded not guilty to more than 50 charges of committing

:14:41. > :14:46.sexual offences against children, including trafficking, prostitution

:14:46. > :14:53.and rape. The offences are alleged to have happened in Oxford and an

:14:53. > :14:56.old girls as Jenas 12. Tom Simons is at the Old Bailey. This is the

:14:56. > :15:00.result of a major police investigation by Thames Valley

:15:01. > :15:05.Police, which has seen raids in the Oxford area over the last year

:15:05. > :15:10.Rossell. Today, in quite a long process, we heard 51 counts

:15:10. > :15:15.covering a wide range of sexual abuse, a rape, prostitution,

:15:15. > :15:19.trafficking. In one case using an instrument to procure a miscarriage.

:15:19. > :15:29.And also assaults on children and the supply of Class A drugs. There

:15:29. > :15:34.

:15:34. > :15:40.are nine defendants. I counted more than 70 police from them. Every

:15:40. > :15:46.single one was not guilty. This is going to be a big and complicated

:15:46. > :15:50.trial that will start at the Old Bailey in January. Two directors of

:15:50. > :15:53.the security contractor G4S have resigned, following a review of the

:15:53. > :15:57.company's failure to provide the guards it had promised that Olympic

:15:57. > :16:03.venues. But the chief executive, Nick Buckles, who apologised to a

:16:03. > :16:09.committee of MPs for what had happened, is to keep his job.

:16:09. > :16:14.British troops coming to the rescue. G4S was supposed to provide more

:16:14. > :16:20.than 10,000 staff to safeguard the Olympic venues. But just two weeks

:16:20. > :16:25.before the Games began, it failed to deliver. It is clear that G4S

:16:25. > :16:30.let the country down in all the preparations for the Olympics

:16:30. > :16:36.security. It turned into a fiasco. This was an 11th hour move. Had it

:16:36. > :16:39.not been for the government, low carb and the Ministry of Defence --

:16:40. > :16:44.LOCOG, and the Ministry of Defence, we would not have had the splendid

:16:44. > :16:48.Games that we subsequently had. has revealed what went wrong. An

:16:48. > :16:52.internal review found by monitoring and tracking of the security work

:16:52. > :16:59.force was inadequate. And that management failed to appreciate the

:16:59. > :17:03.scale and exact nature of the project. At the time, the boss was

:17:03. > :17:08.hauled in front of politicians to explain. It is a humiliating

:17:08. > :17:12.shambles, isn't it? It's not where we would want to be, that is

:17:13. > :17:18.certain. Be so humiliating shambles for the company, yes or no?

:17:19. > :17:24.cannot disagree with you. Today, he is still in a job at the track on

:17:24. > :17:28.his left is going. The director of global events. He is resigning

:17:28. > :17:36.along with David Taylor Smith, the man responsible for the Olympic

:17:36. > :17:40.contract. It was a debacle but today G4S's share price rose,

:17:40. > :17:44.partly because the boss, Nick Buckles, is being kept on. From a

:17:44. > :17:47.shareholder perspective, profits have increased, he's built a global

:17:47. > :17:50.number one player in security and the share price performance over

:17:51. > :17:54.the last seven years has been very strong. Investors take a longer

:17:54. > :17:58.term investment horizon than just looking at the events of the last

:17:58. > :18:01.12 months. Those events have cost his company dear. The real test now

:18:01. > :18:09.was whether it will continue to secure valuable government

:18:09. > :18:13.contracts in future. The breaking news this lunchtime, the schoolgirl

:19:22. > :19:26.up on a young driver support programme. Even back then he knew

:19:26. > :19:31.exactly what he wanted from the sport. My ambition is to get a

:19:31. > :19:34.Formula One, definitely. I enjoyed the speed, I like to be with all

:19:34. > :19:39.the big guys and I like to be making lots of money. Lewis

:19:39. > :19:44.Hamilton is the world champion. Those ambitions were fulfilled in

:19:44. > :19:48.style. Rich beyond his wildest dreams and world champion in 2008.

:19:48. > :19:57.During those celebrations it was hard to see Hamilton ever leading

:19:57. > :20:00.McLaren for another team. But they have been tensions. This incident

:20:00. > :20:03.with team-mate Jensen Button, a sign of the rivalry and perhaps a

:20:03. > :20:13.great frustration of a driver struggling to replicate his world

:20:13. > :20:22.

:20:22. > :20:26.championship success. In a It was probably time for him to

:20:26. > :20:30.make that move up. His new management team, 19, probably were

:20:30. > :20:36.very much behind this because they want to make him into a global name,

:20:36. > :20:39.just like they've done with David question over the future of Michael

:20:39. > :20:45.Schumacher, the man Hamilton is replacing at Mercedes. The seven-

:21:12. > :21:17.remember battles past. But today was about honouring those who are

:21:18. > :21:22.still fighting the walls of the present. Those in uniform, who'd

:21:35. > :21:39.fire, he ordered his men to fix their nets and charge. His citation

:21:39. > :21:45.states the speed, aggression and audacity of that response forced

:21:45. > :21:50.the insurgents to flee. It is straight away the first port of

:21:50. > :21:57.call to thrust into the enemy and finish them off. What was the

:21:57. > :22:01.reaction of the other guys with you? You saw them put their heads

:22:01. > :22:05.back a bit as if to say, is this happening? They were all quite a

:22:05. > :22:13.younger lads but it was happening and that was the decision that was

:22:13. > :22:17.made. But they were all good to go. And then this moment, filmed by a

:22:17. > :22:20.BBC crew, when a British convoy narrowly avoided a roadside bomb.

:22:20. > :22:28.They were the target but it was this passing minibus loaded with

:22:28. > :22:33.Afghans that caught the blast. 18 people were killed, but Sapper Ryan

:22:33. > :22:38.Pavey saved others including children, despite the risk of other

:22:38. > :22:42.IEDs. He receives the Queen's commendation for bravery. Me and

:22:42. > :22:47.the other lads, they saved five lads out of everyone, five

:22:47. > :22:51.survivors. How does that feel? great. Out of such a terrible

:22:51. > :22:55.situation, a little bit of hope came from it. And another close

:22:55. > :22:58.call but 21-year-old Rifleman Matt Wilson. Here he is holding the

:22:58. > :23:03.helmet that saved his life but he was shot in the head, leaving him

:23:03. > :23:07.briefly unconscious. Under intense fire he'd gone to the aid of a

:23:07. > :23:12.wounded comrade. When he came round he continued the fight. He has also

:23:12. > :23:16.been awarded the Military Cross. couldn't believe it. I had been

:23:16. > :23:21.shot in the helmet, you don't really hear anything... I was

:23:22. > :23:30.pretty happy about it. It was a weird feeling. Knowing that I was

:23:30. > :23:33.that close to getting shot in the face. Pretty scary. Just a few of

:23:33. > :23:37.the incredible stories from the men and women who have received battle

:23:37. > :23:45.honours in a war that is still being fought. Tales of individual

:23:45. > :23:49.heroism, though they say they were just doing their job. One of the

:23:49. > :23:53.sport's most anticipated tournaments in golf, the Ryder Cup,

:23:53. > :24:00.has just got under way. The competition is being held at the

:24:00. > :24:04.Medinah Country Club in Chicago. And a glorious skies the start of

:24:04. > :24:09.one of sport's most enthralling contests. Few events stir the

:24:09. > :24:13.emotions like the Ryder Cup. Eating at the opening ceremony, a tribute

:24:13. > :24:17.to the late Seve Ballesteros bringing tears from Europe's

:24:17. > :24:22.captain, Olazabal. Inspiration for his players as they looked to

:24:22. > :24:29.attack from the start. We're going to do our best out there and try to

:24:29. > :24:38.win points, period. That is it. That is the only way I see we might

:24:38. > :24:42.have a chance of winning this event. But of course the US team have won

:24:42. > :24:46.a very noisy weapon. The crowd. Their players have already been

:24:46. > :24:50.lapping up the support in practice, but might the decibel level also

:24:50. > :24:56.inspire their opponents? It's exactly the same at football games.

:24:56. > :25:04.A small group of away fans arrive and they are out matador outsang by

:25:04. > :25:05.the home fans. That is what we are going to expect here, that is what

:25:05. > :25:08.they are going to get. I know for a fact that several players on the

:25:09. > :25:13.European side just love that type of atmosphere. And if the US have

:25:13. > :25:18.home advantage, Europe have the confidence. They've won four of the

:25:18. > :25:23.last five Ryder Cups, so can they do it again? They certainly look

:25:23. > :25:26.relax in the build-up. And they have three of the world's top four

:25:26. > :25:30.golfers. Conditions have been perfect so far this week. But if

:25:30. > :25:36.Europe are champing at the bit, so are their opponents. This has been

:25:36. > :25:42.an exciting week so far, a busy week so far. They are primed and

:25:42. > :25:46.ready for sure. So with the formalities over, finally it is

:25:46. > :25:55.down to business. In the last few minutes the opening shot of this

:25:55. > :26:02.year's Ryder Cup, three days of spellbinding drama are guaranteed.

:26:02. > :26:06.Let's go back to the breaking news schoolgirl who went missing a week

:26:06. > :26:10.ago with a teacher Jeremy Forrest, has been found in France. -- Megan

:26:10. > :26:14.spammers. Jeremy Forrest has been arrested and Metin has been taken

:26:14. > :26:19.into protection. Any more details about where in France they were

:26:19. > :26:24.found? Yes, I understand they were found in Bordeaux on a street by

:26:24. > :26:28.the local police. There had been a number of reported sightings in

:26:28. > :26:32.France since the weekend. There were seven of phone calls after the

:26:32. > :26:36.BBC Crimewatch programme last night. One reported sighting in Paris. A

:26:36. > :26:40.woman said she'd seen them walking hand-in-hand on Sunday, when they

:26:40. > :26:44.were supposed to return to the UK. If that is the case, then from here

:26:44. > :26:50.they made their way it seven ourselves to Bordeaux. I understand

:26:50. > :26:52.from the prosecutor here in Paris that since Tuesday and the issue of

:26:52. > :26:56.a European arrest warrants for Jeremy Forrest and child abduction,

:26:56. > :27:01.they employed the services of a specialist team in France, drawn

:27:01. > :27:04.from the gendarme and the civil police. They have access to

:27:04. > :27:08.specialised computer software. It will have helped them home in very

:27:08. > :27:12.quickly on mobile phone signals, car registration plates, e-mail

:27:12. > :27:21.connections, credit cards and that sort of thing. That, together with

:27:21. > :27:25.a higher profile for the story, has So much to play for across the pond

:27:25. > :27:28.with the Ryder Cup just getting under way. The weather looks set

:27:28. > :27:35.fair. A gentle breeze from the north-east, pretty good

:27:35. > :27:40.temperatures and mostly sunny skies. Coming out of North America is this

:27:40. > :27:43.mass of cloud. That is heading our way for Sunday. The gap in the

:27:43. > :27:47.clouds is Saturday's weather. But at the moment across the UK we've

:27:47. > :27:51.got this tail-end of a weather front moving its way from west to

:27:51. > :27:55.east, being pushed along by a noticeable breeze. But it is

:27:55. > :27:59.fragmenting, no persistent rain just a scattering of showers and

:27:59. > :28:02.some sunny spells across Wales through the afternoon. Breezy

:28:02. > :28:07.across Northern Ireland with sunny spells and a scattering of showers,

:28:08. > :28:13.but the strongest winds will be in the West of Scotland, up to 40 mph.

:28:13. > :28:16.A few showers but not many of them getting across the campions. One or

:28:16. > :28:23.two showers across the North of England bat down towards Manchester

:28:23. > :28:25.and Leeds it should be largely finance dry. There will be at

:28:25. > :28:29.Youxian was around in the London area and a few clipping their way

:28:29. > :28:33.along the south coast, where it is still quite breezy. But it's not

:28:33. > :28:37.going to be raining everywhere, there will be some dry and bright

:28:37. > :28:41.interludes. It stays breezy overnight, particularly in the

:28:41. > :28:45.north. Eventually the showers fade away and the skies were clear and

:28:45. > :28:48.it will turn quite chilly. Meanwhile, the winds Stay pretty

:28:48. > :28:53.strong across Northern Ireland and more particularly into the West of

:28:53. > :28:58.Scotland, where it will be wet overnight. Rural spots will get

:28:58. > :29:02.cold, well into single figures. For most of England and Wales it is a

:29:02. > :29:05.decent looking day. Good spells of sunshine around, maybe one or two

:29:05. > :29:11.showers in the north-west of England but those will tend to fade

:29:11. > :29:15.away. Good spells of sunshine and light winds for most of us.

:29:15. > :29:18.Temperatures into the middle teens. But there is some rain gathering to

:29:18. > :29:23.the far north-west. That is in advance of this weather system,

:29:23. > :29:27.which is heading our way for Sunday. It will be a breezy day across the

:29:27. > :29:30.board. Those weather fronts are bringing rain. Initially the rain

:29:30. > :29:36.and the strongest winds will be across Scotland and Northern

:29:36. > :29:38.Ireland, but it is on the move. They could be heavy bursts of rain

:29:38. > :29:41.towards Cumbria, but that rain is on the move and getting down to the

:29:41. > :29:45.south-east later in the date. Saturday is the day for getting out

:29:45. > :29:54.and about. It will be dry and bright. All change on Sunday with
