:01:59. > :02:05.have stopped looking for further survivors of the country's worst

:02:45. > :02:48.the train was travelling too fast as it came round the bend
:02:48. > :02:53.travelling into the city of Santiago de Compostela, the region
:02:53. > :03:00.of Galicia in the north of Spain. The warning, some people might find

:03:10. > :03:14.four decades. In the aftermath of the disaster, blanket covered
:03:14. > :03:18.bodies lie strewn around the track. During the morning, pictures were
:03:18. > :03:22.shown on line and by Spanish media that appeared to show the moment
:03:22. > :03:28.the train came off the track. The distressing video you are about to
:03:28. > :03:37.see, comes from a trackside camera, apparently belonging to Spain's
:03:37. > :03:43.national rail company. After the carriages derailed, some overturned,
:03:43. > :03:47.part of their sides were ripped off. Inside, where passengers sat, it
:03:47. > :03:57.hardly resembles a train. Those on board said the train was travelling
:03:57. > :04:02.fast as it approached the outskirts of Galicia's regional capital.
:04:02. > :04:08.TRANSLATION: It happened so quickly. It derailed on a curve and rolled
:04:08. > :04:13.over many, many times. The train was going very fast and it derailed
:04:13. > :04:17.as it was going round the corner. It is a disaster. I was very lucky

:04:31. > :04:36.The death toll rose throughout the night as the emergency services
:04:36. > :04:41.work to get people and bodies out of the wreckage. As daylight broke,
:04:41. > :04:49.the scale of the tragedy was becoming clear. This neighbour, who
:04:49. > :04:56.lives near the track described the moment the train derailed.
:04:56. > :05:00.TRANSLATION: In the beginning it was like an Athen -- earthquake. As
:05:00. > :05:04.if it were two cars crashing into each other. It was a terrible blow,
:05:04. > :05:09.like a volcano. Travelling from the Spanish capital,
:05:09. > :05:14.Madrid, the train came out of that tunnel in the distance and the
:05:14. > :05:18.railed as it came round this tight bend. The speed limit on the bend
:05:18. > :05:23.is 80 kilometres an hour, but unconfirmed reports in the media
:05:23. > :05:27.suggest the train was travelling much faster. At local hospitals,
:05:27. > :05:32.they queued, after an appeal from the regional Government for people
:05:32. > :05:37.to give blood. Earlier, Spain's Prime Minister, who was born in
:05:37. > :05:42.this region came to see the damage for himself. Later he visited
:05:42. > :05:46.survivors in hospital. The fear is, an already high death toll could
:05:46. > :05:52.rise further. Some of those injured are in a serious or critical
:05:52. > :05:59.condition. As cranes lifted the badly damaged Carrick -- carriages
:05:59. > :06:04.of the track, it is clear it has switched to a recovery inquiry.
:06:04. > :06:08.Spain has invested huge amount of money in its high-speed rail and
:06:08. > :06:15.medium speed rail, which was this train that crashed last night.
:06:15. > :06:22.There will be big questions about how this accident happened, about
:06:23. > :06:26.how so many people died. A judge has been appointed to
:06:26. > :06:31.investigate the causes of the crash, following the reports the train
:06:31. > :06:35.could have been travelling much faster than the speed limit.
:06:35. > :06:40.Richard Lescott reports on what may be behind the D moment.
:06:40. > :06:44.This investigation is likely to focus on speed. As the report
:06:44. > :06:48.suggests, was the Spanish train going has twice as fast as it
:06:48. > :06:52.should have been around a curve in the track? Modern, fast trains are
:06:52. > :06:57.fitted with a variety of safety systems and some of them put brakes
:06:57. > :07:02.on automatically if you go too quickly. Others simply warn the
:07:02. > :07:08.driver to act. One of the questions being investigated, did the system
:07:08. > :07:12.work? Did it tell the driver what the speed limit was? Did the driver
:07:12. > :07:17.somehow ignore it, or did the system fail and give no indication
:07:17. > :07:20.or an incorrect indication? This is what we are waiting to find out.
:07:20. > :07:26.This was a high-speed train, but was travelling on a normal stretch
:07:26. > :07:30.of track, which tend to include tighter curves. That is not unusual,
:07:30. > :07:34.but the Spanish journalists said when people travelled on the line
:07:34. > :07:40.when it opened, said people were worried. There were concerns about
:07:40. > :07:45.this bend, people said they felt it was dangerous, that the train had
:07:45. > :07:51.to go from 200 kilometres an hour to 80: it is in just a matter of
:07:51. > :07:55.seconds. It was a difficult manoeuvre to execute for the driver.
:07:55. > :08:01.Over the last 20 years, Spain has led the word in building high-speed
:08:02. > :08:05.rail lines and their network has a very good safety record. In 2003,
:08:05. > :08:10.19 people were killed in a head on collision to the east of the
:08:11. > :08:16.country. Three years later, six people died when an InterCity train
:08:16. > :08:21.derailed further north. We still do not know what caused this crash, it
:08:21. > :08:26.could be a problem with the rails or something left on the line. The
:08:26. > :08:31.train company says the train itself had just been inspected and did not
:08:31. > :08:36.have any technical problems. This accident is shocking, but trains
:08:36. > :08:41.remain one of the safest ways you can travel.
:08:41. > :08:51.We will have more on that story later. In the meantime, there is

:08:57. > :09:02.according to initial figures from the Office for National Statistics,
:09:02. > :09:07.it grew by 0.6%, double that of the previous quarter. The Chancellor
:09:07. > :09:14.said the figures were better than forecast. The shadow chancellor, Ed
:09:14. > :09:19.Balls, most ordinary families wouldn't feel the benefit.
:09:19. > :09:24.It is the latest picture of the economy, GDP, the value of all the
:09:24. > :09:31.goods and services we produce. Today there was good news, output
:09:31. > :09:36.grew by 0.6%. The Chancellor had a busy night, meeting workers in the
:09:36. > :09:41.West Midlands, keen to take a slice of the credit. Business Age, things

:10:01. > :10:06.was badly hit by the recession. UK manufacturing has been weak, but
:10:06. > :10:12.today's figures showed some growth. Every sector of the economy grew in
:10:12. > :10:18.the last three months. Here at the UK's largest car dealership, they
:10:18. > :10:24.have been selling a lot more shiny, new cars. Sales have increased by
:10:24. > :10:29.20%, so there is more optimism, consumers are feeling more
:10:29. > :10:32.comfortable. Unemployment is looking positive. That is what

:10:38. > :10:44.decision. Our consumer spending money they don't have? Almost every

:10:47. > :10:53.Living standards are falling for most people in the country, even
:10:53. > :10:57.with this growth. Prices are rising faster than wages. The question
:10:57. > :11:00.that the Government is, are they going to act, to not only sustain a
:11:00. > :11:05.stronger recovery, but make sure it delivers for families in the
:11:05. > :11:09.country? This Economist says, although we have had six months of
:11:09. > :11:16.growth, there is still a lot of catching up to do. Five years ago
:11:16. > :11:21.we fell off a cliff, economic police begin. We are 3.3% below
:11:21. > :11:25.than we were in 2008. Even with this GDP number, we are at the
:11:25. > :11:29.beginning of a very long road to recovery. But the picture of the
:11:29. > :11:37.economy is more positive than most people thought it would be. The
:11:37. > :11:40.question now, come the growth and GDP be dis -- sustained?
:11:40. > :11:45.Let's talk to our economics editor. The picture is looking more
:11:45. > :11:49.positive, growth is there, but of people feeling it in their pockets?
:11:49. > :11:55.That will be the question in the next few months. We have to be
:11:55. > :12:00.encouraged by these figures. It shows the economy has grown by 1.4%
:12:00. > :12:05.in the past year. If those figures, preliminary figures are right, the
:12:05. > :12:10.fastest annual rate of growth since 2011, and all parts of the economy
:12:10. > :12:15.are moving in the same direction. Drive think why we have a question
:12:15. > :12:20.as to whether people are feeling this, living standards are still
:12:20. > :12:24.below where they were at the start of the downturn. At this stage in
:12:24. > :12:28.the process, five years on from the start of the first recession,
:12:28. > :12:33.living standards, it real income per head would be seven or 8%

:12:39. > :12:43.four or 5% below than we were at the beginning of 2008. If we carry
:12:43. > :12:51.on getting these numbers, maybe people will start to feel better,

:23:17. > :23:20.The BBC has learned that the European wine producing nations are
:23:20. > :23:24.trying to block Scotland's plans to introduce a minimum price for
:23:24. > :23:30.alcohol. The idea has already been shelved in England and Wales because
:23:30. > :23:34.of concerns that it would not work. Our correspondent has been to

:23:57. > :24:05.to the retailer, but any drop in sales would be his problem. It is
:24:05. > :24:11.very bad for us, because we are starting to sell better and better
:24:11. > :24:15.in the Scottish market. This will be terrible for us. That view is widely
:24:15. > :24:20.held here, but Scotland needs the approval of the European commission
:24:20. > :24:24.to introduce a minimum price, and the Portuguese want the commission
:24:24. > :24:27.to say no. It is not just the Portuguese government which objects
:24:27. > :24:32.to minimum pricing. The French government says it could mean
:24:32. > :24:35.serious losses for its wine exporters, and the Bulgarians say it
:24:36. > :24:39.would create obstacles to trade. Together with other countries in the
:24:39. > :24:45.EU, they are trying to block the policy. But Scotland's health
:24:45. > :24:48.minister says the law is on his side. I will look at the court
:24:48. > :24:58.decision made by the court in Scotland. It is the only time this
:24:58. > :25:03.issue has been to any European Court. The court ruled in our
:25:03. > :25:06.favour. That judgement is being appealed, but input YouGov's
:25:06. > :25:11.distilleries, there is already talk of hitting back with higher prices
:25:11. > :25:17.for Scotch whiskey. We have been swamped with Scottish products. It
:25:17. > :25:21.is now our turn to try to export some of our products to Scotland,
:25:21. > :25:23.and I am sure the national spirits industry of Scotland would not be
:25:23. > :25:28.appreciative of trade barriers being imposed by the Portuguese
:25:28. > :25:35.government. It is a softly spoken threat from a tranquil valley.

:26:08. > :26:11.If you were following me since 2002, you will know that I have been doing

:26:21. > :26:22.
:26:22. > :26:27.world juniors at 15. I won the world junior record in 1993 at 18. I have
:26:28. > :26:33.broken every record there is to break, in every event I have ever
:26:33. > :26:38.done. So I have proven myself since I was 15. Right now I am just living
:26:38. > :26:43.out my dream. As my agent would say, I am underperforming right now!
:26:43. > :26:49.So I need to step it up. I have shown throughout the years that I
:26:49. > :26:53.was always going to be great. That is all I have to say.
:26:53. > :26:57.Let's return to our main story, the train crash in Spain, which has
:26:57. > :27:03.claimed the lives of at least 78 people. The express train derailed
:27:03. > :27:10.on a bend Santiago de Compostela. Let's rejoin our correspondent at
:27:10. > :27:16.the scene. What is the latest you are hearing? One of the huge cranes
:27:16. > :27:21.behind me has just lifted up one of the most badly damaged carriages.
:27:21. > :27:26.You can see how one side of the carriage has been completely ripped
:27:26. > :27:30.off. Inside, it is almost gutted. It does not look like a train would
:27:30. > :27:35.normally look inside. It shows you the scale of the damage and
:27:35. > :27:41.devastation. Many people were injured in this. The death toll now
:27:41. > :27:46.stands in the high 70s, but a lot more were injured. They are being
:27:46. > :27:50.treated in hospital. Some are in a serious condition, so the death toll
:27:50. > :27:55.could soon rise further. The driver is being investigated, but the
:27:55. > :27:59.investigation into how this happened is now underway. We believe much of
:27:59. > :28:03.the focus of that investigation is the speed at which the train was
:28:03. > :28:13.travelling when it derailed from the track.
:28:13. > :28:16.
:28:16. > :28:23.More from him on that story on the Now the weather. One for many this
:28:23. > :28:28.afternoon across the British Isles. Showery for some. -- warm for many.
:28:28. > :28:38.Overnight, it was very wet across a good part of Northern Ireland. Some
:28:38. > :28:40.
:28:40. > :28:44.40 millimetres of rain fell in Kate south of that and very, we have a
:28:44. > :28:47.number of sharp showers. I would not be surprised if we saw more
:28:47. > :28:52.thunderstorms. We have seen some this morning across Northern
:28:52. > :28:57.Ireland. As we drift towards the south, you sense that there are
:28:57. > :29:02.fewer showers to go around, and they will be less intense. The London
:29:02. > :29:07.area is essentially dry. Away from the coast, it is still oppressively
:29:07. > :29:11.close. Still the odd rogue shower across some of the southern
:29:11. > :29:19.counties. Across the spine of Wales, we may see some sharp
:29:19. > :29:23.showers. In Northern Ireland and the northern half of Britain, you have a
:29:23. > :29:29.chance of seeing some heavy downpours. Then there is something
:29:29. > :29:32.of a lull, and to either side of Scotland, we have a chance at the
:29:32. > :29:38.tail end of the night of seeing sharp showers and thunderstorms
:29:38. > :29:43.again. In the far south-east, we may see something sparking away in the
:29:43. > :29:50.channel, gradually pushing into the North Sea. Then we are off and
:29:50. > :29:58.running again on Friday. Similar sort of fair. Less sparky whether
:29:58. > :30:04.further south. Temperatures are pushing comfortably into -- into the
:30:04. > :30:11.heart of the 20s. Into the first part of Saturday, we have real
:30:11. > :30:14.concerns about some heavy and thundery rain. A little bit
:30:14. > :30:23.uncertain at the moment, but if you have plans for Saturday across the
:30:23. > :30:27.southeastern quarter, play attention to the forecast. There could be very
:30:27. > :30:31.disruptive weather indeed. On Saturday night into Sunday, it
:30:31. > :30:35.progresses towards the north, with the potential for really heavy
:30:35. > :30:45.downpours. On Sunday, it is that mix of humid conditions, with a bit of
:30:45. > :30:51.
:30:51. > :30:58.sunshine, but some pretty sharp reminder of our main story: Spain's
:30:58. > :31:03.worst train crash in a generation - at least 78 people are killed. More
:31:03. > :31:07.than 100 or injured. The train derailed as it approached Santiago
