:00:11. > :00:15.Egypt, after the army ousted the elected president. Blazing the

:00:15. > :00:24.colours of the Egyptian flag over Cairo, the military stage fly pasts

:00:24. > :00:30.minutes before the country's top judge takes over.

:00:30. > :00:34.I will be reporting live from Tahrir Square in Cairo. There is still no

:00:34. > :00:38.timetable on fresh elections, and questions on the nature of Egyptian

:00:38. > :00:46.democracy. Also this lunchtime: Half of the

:00:46. > :00:50.population of England and On the up. House prices have risen at their

:00:50. > :00:56.fastest rate for nearly three years. How overfilling kettles costs �68

:00:56. > :01:01.million a year in wasted energy and water.

:01:01. > :01:04.I don't know why we call it a mouth. Sometimes I apologise, we never did

:01:04. > :01:11.change it. The man who invented the mouse and

:01:11. > :01:14.predicted the internet, Douglas losing public confidence? A third of

:01:14. > :01:24.people polled say they're less likely to trust the force after

:01:24. > :01:42.

:01:42. > :01:49.claims they spied on the family of BBC News at One. Egypt's top judge

:01:49. > :01:54.has been sworn in as the country 's temporary leader. The army says Adly

:01:54. > :01:56.Mansour all will stay in office until elections have been held.

:01:56. > :02:06.Millions celebrated Mr Morsi's downfall, but his Muslim Brotherhood

:02:06. > :02:11.

:02:11. > :02:15.party called the army's actions a coup. Ben Brown is in Tahrir Square.

:02:15. > :02:21.It is much quieter today in Tahrir Square, the focal point of the

:02:21. > :02:27.movement against Mr Morsi. They celebrated last night at the news of

:02:27. > :02:32.his departure. He is under house arrest, we gather. Many of his

:02:32. > :02:37.senior leadership have been arrested. There are reports there

:02:37. > :02:41.are some 300 arrest warrants for senior members of his Muslim

:02:41. > :02:47.Brotherhood. The TV stations have been closed down by the military.

:02:47. > :02:57.The key question is what will his supporters and Muslim Brotherhood

:02:57. > :02:59.

:02:59. > :03:01.supporters do now? Will they take to In Tahrir Square, the extraordinary

:03:01. > :03:11.celebrations at the fall of President Morsi went on through the

:03:11. > :03:15.night. It followed the announcement the army was taking control. The

:03:15. > :03:25.military are the ones who should run this country, says these protester.

:03:25. > :03:30.They have proven they are the best. In one part of Cairo, there was

:03:31. > :03:33.unbridled joy, singing and dancing, as those who felt the president had

:03:33. > :03:40.ruled the country for the Muslim Brotherhood had got what they

:03:40. > :03:45.wanted. Across the city was a very different scene. Many of those who

:03:45. > :03:51.voted for President Morsi staged a sit in, feeling there had been a

:03:51. > :03:57.gross injustice done to him and his supporters. We will stay in all the

:03:57. > :04:02.squares in Egypt, says this member, until the legitimate resident

:04:02. > :04:06.returns to the presidential palace. For now, it is president Adly

:04:06. > :04:11.Mansour who will be working there. Not a name Egyptians will have known

:04:11. > :04:21.before but sworn in without delay. TRANSLATION: The worship of the

:04:21. > :04:25.

:04:25. > :04:30.ruler should end forever. And all protection that the weak Bisto

:04:30. > :04:34.rulers should end. The fate of the last leader is still uncertain. He

:04:34. > :04:38.released a recorded statement saying he did not accept what the army had

:04:38. > :04:42.done. There are reports he is under house arrest or being detained in a

:04:42. > :04:50.military facility. Senior members of his party have started to be rounded

:04:50. > :04:55.For many, that is good news, as they continue their celebrations. Only 18

:04:55. > :05:00.months ago, they were protesting against army rule. Now they are

:05:00. > :05:06.well-connected and the military is enjoying the moment.

:05:06. > :05:10.The Egyptian military, leaving trails of smoke through the skies.

:05:10. > :05:14.Lots of people had been cheering. The question is, as we see these

:05:14. > :05:21.troops deployed here, what their intentions are, how long they intend

:05:21. > :05:26.to stay in power and what they will They may be euphoric now but with a

:05:26. > :05:36.divided society, and an clear roadmap for a hand back to civilian

:05:36. > :05:40.rule, there is still caused to be anxious about Egypt's future.

:05:40. > :05:44.Many of the people who gathered in Tahrir Square to oppose Mr Morsi,

:05:44. > :05:49.say they have completed their revolution which began with the

:05:49. > :05:53.overthrow of Hosni Mubarak and it has finished with the revolution.

:05:53. > :05:58.Supporters of Mr Morsi say he is still their president. They have

:05:58. > :06:04.issued a warning, if the army can get rid of one democratically

:06:04. > :06:08.elected leader, what is to stop them doing it again in the future?

:06:08. > :06:15.Tahrir Square is much quieter today but Egypt is entering a period of

:06:15. > :06:20.huge uncertainty. Apologies, we appear to be having

:06:20. > :06:23.problems with our connection to Here, the Foreign Secretary William

:06:23. > :06:26.Hague has said Britain does not support the military intervention in

:06:26. > :06:29.Egypt, but that it has to recognise it, and move on.

:06:29. > :06:36.Our political correspondent Robin Brant joins us from Westminster now.

:06:36. > :06:40.He announced he is selling -- sending a team to ensure that

:06:40. > :06:46.British nationals are OK. They are sending a rapid deployment team. The

:06:46. > :06:52.foreign office and UK government as a whole wants to be prepared to help

:06:52. > :06:56.British people in Cairo and beyond if there is a problem. We have heard

:06:56. > :07:00.from William Hague and the Prime Minister and Deputy Prime Minister.

:07:00. > :07:07.It is clear they do not support military intervention, but they are

:07:07. > :07:11.accepting the outcome. There is no one calling for the reinstatement of

:07:11. > :07:16.President Morsi. It is clear they are not mourning the political

:07:16. > :07:22.passing of this Islamist president. Downing Street is refusing to

:07:22. > :07:28.describe it as a coup, calling it a military intervention. The focus is

:07:29. > :07:34.on what comes next, a transition to another free round of elections. And

:07:35. > :07:38.stability for Egypt as a whole. This is a country surrounded by some

:07:38. > :07:42.countries in varying states of instability. And stability because

:07:42. > :07:47.of those British people who remain in Egypt whether guidance from the

:07:47. > :07:49.UK government is still no essential travel and those there should

:07:50. > :07:52.consider whether they still want to stay.

:07:52. > :07:56.President Obama has said he's deeply concerned by the Egyptian military's

:07:56. > :07:58.decision to remove President Morsi. He called on the army to respect the

:07:58. > :08:04.rights of all Egyptians. Our correspondent David Willis is in

:08:04. > :08:12.Washington. There is an awful lot of money at

:08:12. > :08:16.stake, money due to go to Egypt, aid money. Absolutely right. In a

:08:16. > :08:20.statement issued a few hours after former President Morsi was removed

:08:20. > :08:26.from power, President Barack Obama released a statement saying he was

:08:26. > :08:30.deeply concerned by the military decision, calling for a quick return

:08:30. > :08:35.to democratic government in Egypt. Crucially perhaps, this statement

:08:35. > :08:42.makes no mention of the word, coup, because by that found to be the

:08:42. > :08:48.case, as you mentioned, $1.3 billion in aid which the US provides

:08:48. > :08:52.directly to the Egyptian military, would have to be pulled. That

:08:52. > :08:57.carefully worded statement, an indication of the fact the White

:08:57. > :09:04.House is looking basically to bide its time, to see how events pan out

:09:05. > :09:10.on the ground in Egypt. Interesting to see the photographs released from

:09:10. > :09:17.the White House showing President Barack Obama with his aides, among

:09:17. > :09:24.them was the US attorney general. The White House is anxious to get a

:09:24. > :09:29.lawyer's take, to work out whether this constitutes a coup. Given the

:09:29. > :09:35.enormous strategic and political importance that Egypt poses to the

:09:35. > :09:40.united states, the last thing the US administration will want is a messy

:09:40. > :09:45.conclusion to one of this, and to seek Egypt being plunged into

:09:45. > :09:55.You can follow the situation in Egypt, and get more analysis from

:10:08. > :10:09.

:10:09. > :10:14.according to one of the UK's biggest mortgage lenders. Our personal

:10:15. > :10:20.finance correspondent Simon Gompertz reports. The weather is hotting up

:10:20. > :10:30.and so is the housing market. The survey shows an increase of 3.7%,

:10:30. > :10:30.

:10:30. > :10:34.faster than shop prices, leaving the average home at nearly �168,000.

:10:34. > :10:39.Confidence is improving. That is self fulfilling because the market

:10:39. > :10:43.is getting stronger. But also because we are seeing signs the

:10:43. > :10:49.economy is doing better. That is giving people more confidence and

:10:49. > :10:55.they will think about buying a home. London is pulling away again but

:10:55. > :11:00.Newcastle is also a hotspot with an 11% rise. Agents are worried about a

:11:00. > :11:10.price bubble. I am not sure it is a bubble as long as it is contained.

:11:10. > :11:19.It could develop into a bubble if we get excited about it.

:11:19. > :11:23.Who actually wants higher prices? a house owner, I welcome it.

:11:23. > :11:28.imagine it is good news for some people if they are selling but not

:11:28. > :11:31.if you are buying. Helping the revival are higher sales

:11:31. > :11:34.of new homes reported by house-builders, thanks to government

:11:34. > :11:39.schemes to cut the price of mortgages and help buyers with

:11:39. > :11:44.deposits. Higher prices mean you have to borrow more to buy your

:11:44. > :11:48.dream home. The average mortgage has gone up thousands. That introduces a

:11:48. > :11:58.danger when interest rates go up, families could end up in financial

:11:58. > :12:00.

:12:00. > :12:03.The Bank of England has kept interest rates unchanged. It's the

:12:03. > :12:08.first decision by the bank since Mark Carney took up the post of

:12:08. > :12:11.Governor on Monday. The Bank has also held back from injecting

:12:11. > :12:15.billions of pounds more into the economy in a programme known as

:12:15. > :12:25.quantitative easing. Half the population of England and

:12:41. > :12:46.Bolton, an asylum dispersal area in the jargon of today's report which

:12:46. > :12:50.said towns where immigration has grown in recent years are feeling

:12:50. > :12:54.the recent impact. Including those with growing numbers of asylum

:12:54. > :13:00.seekers. Examples, Bolton, Plymouth, brother and Swansea. All

:13:00. > :13:06.with large numbers of migrant workers such as Boston, Dover and

:13:06. > :13:12.Rugby. In Bolton, we asked what has been the impact. A lot of Polish

:13:12. > :13:17.have come in. It is good for our business. We are losing out on jobs.

:13:17. > :13:23.They should pay for what they get at the hospitals. I don't think

:13:23. > :13:27.hospitals could survive without the different cultures working there

:13:27. > :13:30.now. The Home Office study identified health as the area of

:13:30. > :13:37.greatest impact with longer appointments due to poor levels of

:13:37. > :13:42.English, most cases of TB, and blood donors with hepatitis B were born

:13:42. > :13:46.outside the UK. But these patients it said only account for a small

:13:46. > :13:52.part of the demand on the NHS. Another area of pressure is

:13:52. > :13:57.housing. High levels of immigration causes overcrowding, inflated rents

:13:57. > :14:01.and unscrupulous landlords. In some areas, it has left migrant families

:14:01. > :14:08.cramming into bedrooms. The report says immigration has had little

:14:08. > :14:12.impact on crime. Most people want an immigration

:14:12. > :14:19.system which is controlled, allows people to come and contribute, and

:14:19. > :14:23.makes sure they are adding something to the country.

:14:23. > :14:29.Two planned new controls on immigration, an annual health levy

:14:29. > :14:32.of �200 at least the those entering the UK for more than six months. And

:14:32. > :14:39.a requirement on landlords to check the immigration status of their

:14:39. > :14:41.Newscorp has defended its chief Rupert Murdoch, after a secret

:14:41. > :14:44.recording was released of him criticising the police inquiry into

:14:44. > :14:46.alleged phone hacking. Talking in March to a group of Sun journalists,

:14:46. > :14:50.many of whom are under investigation, he complains about

:14:50. > :14:54."totally incompetent" police officers. News Corp said Mr Murdoch

:14:54. > :14:56.had been showing "understandable empathy" with staff.

:14:56. > :14:59.The government's creating 70 "resettlement prisons" in England

:14:59. > :15:04.and Wales to try to help prepare prisoners for their release into the

:15:04. > :15:06.community. Under the plans, offenders will be moved to a

:15:06. > :15:10.resettlement prison as near as possible to their home, at least

:15:10. > :15:20.three months before the end of their sentence. The scheme will be tried

:15:20. > :15:22.

:15:22. > :15:24.out in the north west of England on the remains of three of Nelson

:15:24. > :15:30.Mandela's children after their bodies were exhumed yesterday

:15:30. > :15:37.because of a bitter family feud. Two years ago his grandson moved the

:15:37. > :15:47.bodies from quun quun to his own estate in Mvezo, where Mandela was

:15:47. > :15:47.

:15:47. > :15:52.born. The rule has ruled that the The man at the centre of a bitter

:15:52. > :15:57.family feud - Nelson Mandela is not dead yet, but already his grandson

:15:57. > :16:04.is fighting other members of the extended Mandela family for control

:16:04. > :16:08.of his grave. Yesterday, the authorities broke open the gates to

:16:08. > :16:16.Mandela's compound where three of Mandela's children are buried. The

:16:16. > :16:20.body are to be exhumed. Today the eldest grandson and head of the

:16:20. > :16:26.Mandela clan said this was nothing more than an attempt to u surf him

:16:26. > :16:36.as Mandela's rightful heir. I still refuse to be associated with the

:16:36. > :16:37.

:16:37. > :16:43.court actions that I -- that are a clear squabble over my grandfather's

:16:43. > :16:49.money. You will see the real agenda. Nelson Mandela was born here in the

:16:49. > :16:55.village of Quno. He said he wants to be buried at his home next to his

:16:55. > :17:02.children. Two years ago, his grandson had three of them reburied,

:17:02. > :17:09.here at his own compound at nearby Mvezo. Other members of the family

:17:09. > :17:14.went to court and won. They won an order to have the bodies returned.

:17:14. > :17:18.This case has split the Mandela family but also shocked a country

:17:18. > :17:23.coming to terms with the mortality of a man regarded as the father of

:17:23. > :17:28.the nation. This is more than just a fight over a grave site. This is a

:17:28. > :17:32.battle for control of Nelson Mandela's legacy while the man

:17:32. > :17:42.himself is still critically ill in a hospital hundreds of miles from

:17:42. > :17:43.

:17:43. > :17:47.Our top story this lunch time: A new interim leader is sworn in Egypt

:17:47. > :17:52.after the Army ousted the elected President. Still to come - how to

:17:52. > :17:57.save money by saving time in the shower.

:17:57. > :18:03.Later on the programme: Could a booze bracelet, which monitors what

:18:03. > :18:08.you drink, help Londoners with drinking problems? And the Rolling

:18:08. > :18:15.Stones head back to Hyde Park. How will promoters keep residents and

:18:15. > :18:20.Now, after Andy Murray put the nation through agony yesterday

:18:20. > :18:24.afternoon, we have a day to recover and enjoy the women's semi-finals at

:18:24. > :18:30.Wimbledon this afternoon. No brits of course. But with the top three in

:18:30. > :18:40.the world having made surprise exits the showdowns are made up of less

:18:40. > :18:48.

:18:48. > :18:53.she knocked out Serena Williams, will take on the highest remain

:18:53. > :18:59.remaining seed, Agnieszka Radwanska. Let's get the latest from Wimbledon.

:18:59. > :19:04.Yes, as you say women's semi-finals day under way. For a few moments

:19:04. > :19:07.yesterday it looked like we could have had a men's semi-final day

:19:07. > :19:12.without Andy Murray. Perhaps we expect too much of him. The

:19:12. > :19:21.quarter-final matches are not easy. Perhaps the test he needed to raise

:19:21. > :19:27.his game, but my word, wasn't it a nail-biter? For a while, it was like

:19:27. > :19:33.watching the Andy Murray of old - he groaned and grim maced while the

:19:33. > :19:40.Spaniard stripped him of two sets. But after a few choice words with

:19:40. > :19:50.himself, Murray started the long-haul back. As the two went toe

:19:50. > :19:50.

:19:50. > :19:56.to toe in the last set, even Verdasco was wrong-footed and Murray

:19:56. > :20:01.went into the semis. When I went behind the crowd got behind me and

:20:01. > :20:06.made a huge, huge difference. If they can be like that from the first

:20:06. > :20:12.to last in all of the matches, it makes a huge difference.

:20:12. > :20:17.Wimbledon breathes a sigh of relief, the women take centre stage. Kirsten

:20:17. > :20:27.Flipkens is up against Marion Bartoli. The bell gun is back after

:20:27. > :20:32.

:20:32. > :20:42.feeling confident? I think if you are in the semi-finals, you have to

:20:42. > :20:54.

:20:54. > :20:59.their matches today because they are back from serious injury, but that

:20:59. > :21:02.means their opponent opponents had best be weary, because after all,

:21:02. > :21:10.there is nothing so dangerous as a rival with nothing to lose.

:21:10. > :21:14.Thank you very much. The former housemate of SAS sniper

:21:14. > :21:23.Danny Nightingale is giving evidence today. He has pleaded not guilty to

:21:23. > :21:27.illegally possessing a firearm and ammunition.

:21:27. > :21:32.Looking relaxed Sergeant Nightingale and his family came to hear evidence

:21:32. > :21:36.from his best friend in the SAS. A colleague identified as Soldier M.

:21:36. > :21:41.They had known each other for 12 years, serving in operations around

:21:41. > :21:44.the world. That included Iraq and Afghanistan. It was in Afghanistan

:21:44. > :21:54.that Soldier M said they heard about the police investigation into the

:21:54. > :21:56.

:21:56. > :22:02.gun at the centre of this case. It was one like this. Soldier M said

:22:02. > :22:05.Sergeant Nightingale admitted having one at the house they shared. He

:22:05. > :22:10.said Sergeant Nightingale was worried about a search of the house

:22:10. > :22:14.and how he could get five years in jail for having the pistol. He

:22:14. > :22:20.denies possessing the pistol and ammunition. He claimed he forgot

:22:20. > :22:30.about the gun because of his memory problems. Soldier M was asked about

:22:30. > :22:31.

:22:31. > :22:36.his memory, which Sergeant nightingale was impaired: He said he

:22:36. > :22:40.believed he became agitated, and would get his words missed up and

:22:40. > :22:46.talk about "boiling a cup of tea." He told the court he didn't think

:22:46. > :22:51.there was any serious impairment of Sergeant Nightingale's long-term

:22:51. > :22:58.memory. The court will hear from him tomorrow when the SAS sniper gets

:22:58. > :23:01.his chance to put his side of the story.

:23:01. > :23:05.New vocational qualifications for sixth-formers have been unveiled.

:23:05. > :23:12.The tech levels will be an alternative to A levels in England

:23:12. > :23:19.and will give students a chance to qualify in engineering, computing

:23:19. > :23:25.and hospitality. For many young people, hands-on

:23:25. > :23:29.training for a job is vastly better than sitting at a desk. While some

:23:29. > :23:33.qualifications come highly rated, standards vary. This type of

:23:33. > :23:36.education has long been seen, in some eyes, as second best to

:23:36. > :23:41.academic study. These students are learning about the airline industry.

:23:41. > :23:46.It is an example of the sheer diversity of technical courses on

:23:46. > :23:54.offer. In the past, that has led to doubt about their value. The tech

:23:54. > :23:58.level aims to end that confusion. Sixth-formers here agree practical

:23:58. > :24:02.skills deserve extra status. someone cannot concentrate in exams,

:24:02. > :24:06.this way it makes them more confident thand can build confidence

:24:06. > :24:11.during time. They can actually do a job the same as you can with an A

:24:11. > :24:20.level, but in their own specific way. From September, 2014, courses

:24:20. > :24:30.can qualify Aztec levels if they are of high stan -- as Tech levels if

:24:30. > :24:32.

:24:32. > :24:34.Tech levels will help to do that by recognising hie high quality, the

:24:34. > :24:40.rigorous vocational qualification, so that people have a genuine

:24:40. > :24:43.choice. Staff here worry the reforms will

:24:43. > :24:49.downgrade existing qualifications. Our students currently go into

:24:49. > :24:53.employment and using the vocational qualifications we run closely with

:24:53. > :24:57.employers and they would not be seen as important. Employers'

:24:57. > :25:00.organisations have welcomed the tech level, but warn it will need support

:25:00. > :25:04.across business before it is seen as credible. There have been previous

:25:04. > :25:10.efforts to raise vocational training status. It is hoped this attempt

:25:10. > :25:15.will not come to an unhappy end. Now, next time you fill up the

:25:15. > :25:19.kettle, it may be worth stopping to think how much water you need.

:25:19. > :25:24.Overfilling kettles is costing Britain �68 million a year in wasted

:25:24. > :25:28.energy and water and it is not just kettles. The new research by the

:25:28. > :25:34.Energy Saving Trust found the average shower lasts

:25:34. > :25:39.seven-and-a-half minutes. Switch off one minute sooner and it would save

:25:39. > :25:43.�215 million efy year. -- every year.

:25:43. > :25:48.If the bathroom is one place where you would prefer to forget about

:25:48. > :25:51.money, today's report from the Energy Saving Trust might annoy you.

:25:51. > :25:55.Because of habits taking showers that last on average

:25:55. > :26:02.seven-and-a-half minutes or by boiling more water than we need for

:26:03. > :26:06.tea, large sums are draining away. You might think this has to be the

:26:06. > :26:10.cheapest, greenest way to get your dishes done - not according to the

:26:10. > :26:15.Energy Saving Trust. If you have a large family you will save energy

:26:15. > :26:20.and water with a dishwasher. Taking simple steps to cut back on hot

:26:20. > :26:25.water we could collectively save �600 million. That includes measures

:26:25. > :26:29.like avoiding overfilling the kettle - saving �68 million and by cutting

:26:29. > :26:35.showers by two minutes we would save �230 million. Are we ready to be

:26:35. > :26:39.that tight? I like to relax, so, yes, I prefer my baths. I suppose it

:26:39. > :26:43.is not so much about money for me - it is about wasting the water, so,

:26:43. > :26:49.yeah, but it is hard to tell how much you are in there for. Probably

:26:49. > :26:54.things I would put ahead of that T I would shower shorter if I really

:26:54. > :26:58.needed to. With energy bills at nearly �1300 a year, our hot water

:26:58. > :27:05.habits are yet to adjust to that rise in cost. Turning off the tap

:27:05. > :27:10.early, says the return, would do much to ease the financial pressure.

:27:10. > :27:13.Douglas Engelbart, the man who invented the computer mouse and

:27:13. > :27:20.predicted the internet and video conferencing long before they became

:27:20. > :27:26.a reality has died. He was 88. He was a computer scientist in the 60s

:27:27. > :27:36.in California. His ambition was to change the world through computers.

:27:37. > :27:37.

:27:37. > :27:42.You are about to see a few people learn to use the newest, most

:27:42. > :27:47.advanced business computer in the world... The early 1980s saw the

:27:47. > :27:53.introduction of a modern-day icon. If you can point you already know

:27:53. > :28:02.how to use it. If, in your office, you as an intellectual... Douglas

:28:02. > :28:05.Engelbart, a computer visionary had invented the mouse 20 years before.

:28:05. > :28:10.It moves in conjunction with movements of that mouse. I don't

:28:10. > :28:15.know why we call it a "mouse". It started that way and we never

:28:15. > :28:20.changed it. He made no money from it as the patent ran out before the

:28:20. > :28:25.mouse was mass produced. Why? Because in the 60s computers loorked

:28:25. > :28:30.like this. The come -- looked like this. . The concept of point and

:28:30. > :28:34.click has remained the same. mouse allowed the computer to become

:28:34. > :28:38.mainstream. Suddenly anyone could understand how to control it. Before

:28:38. > :28:42.you had to type in complicated things. With the mouse you could see

:28:42. > :28:47.what you wanted to select on the screen, move the pointer over it and

:28:47. > :28:55.click on it. More than one billion mice have been produced. Despite

:28:55. > :29:00.other innovations, the digital row dant lives on -- rodant lives on.

:29:00. > :29:01.Don't be fooled by these pictures here. This is about making us feel

:29:01. > :29:05.here. This is about making us feel better!

:29:05. > :29:11.This is casting our minds back to the same time last year. We were

:29:11. > :29:15.deluged day after day and scenes like this were a daily occurrence.

:29:15. > :29:19.Fast forward to this July though and it is a different story - the summer

:29:19. > :29:23.is setting in nicely. It is here to stay. Temperatures on the rise as we

:29:23. > :29:27.head to the weekend. Lots of warm sunshine to go with it as well. The

:29:27. > :29:32.rest of today though, not as sunny. We are seeing the sun breaking

:29:32. > :29:39.through, behind this line of showers that will creep further eastwards

:29:39. > :29:46.across England and Wales. North-west Scotland always on the cloudy side.

:29:46. > :29:50.East of the Grampians good spells of sunshine and high temperatures of

:29:50. > :29:56.19-20 Celsius. One or two light showers through the Pennines,

:29:56. > :30:00.perhaps. These west-facing coasts, temperatures lower. A fine looking

:30:00. > :30:05.afternoon. One or two showers drifting down towards the

:30:05. > :30:09.south-east, so not out of the question, we could see a brief

:30:09. > :30:14.shower over Wimbledon. Fingers crossed it will miss the

:30:14. > :30:18.championships. North-west Scotland is the exception - damp here, across

:30:18. > :30:25.the hills, brisk winds blowing through as well. Clear skies over

:30:25. > :30:29.England and Wales. A good looking day tomorrow. Much

:30:29. > :30:33.lighter winds tomorrow, particularly across England and Wales. Sunny

:30:33. > :30:37.spells across eastern Scotland as well and Northern Ireland. After a

:30:37. > :30:43.grey start I think parts of north-west Scotland could brighten

:30:43. > :30:48.up come the afternoon as well. Temperatures up a notch.

:30:48. > :30:53.So, a fantastic day for tennis at Wimbledon tomorrow. Look at how

:30:53. > :30:58.things progress through the weekend. For the men's final it may be too

:30:58. > :31:04.hot for players and speck ta tar tars -- spectators.

:31:04. > :31:07.Lots of sunshine, gradually turning hotter. For some of you maybe too

:31:07. > :31:11.hot. The reason for all that - high pressure. Something we didn't see

:31:11. > :31:18.much of over the past few summers is building in, pushing the fronts out

:31:18. > :31:24.of the way, bringing us dry, settled weather. Still perhaps on the cool

:31:24. > :31:31.side across north-western parts. By Sunday up into the low to mid-20s

:31:31. > :31:36.and possibly high 20s across the south. I think you will make people
