:01:01. > :01:05.on. 50 years since the assassination of

:01:06. > :01:10.President Kennedy. Dallas serves to remember the day JFK was shot.

:01:11. > :01:12.Advantage Australia. England's batsmen suffer their worst Ashes

:01:13. > :01:30.collapse since 1990. Coming up: A London journalist is

:01:31. > :01:33.one of three people in a Russian prison after a Greenpeace protest.

:01:34. > :01:35.And, see who's made it to the Gold Cup of high achieving schools in the

:01:36. > :01:51.Capital. Good afternoon. Welcome to BBC News

:01:52. > :01:54.at One. The former chairman of the

:01:55. > :01:58.Cooperative Bank, Paul Flowers, has been arrested by West Yorkshire

:01:59. > :02:02.Police. The 63-year-old was detained on Merseyside last night as part of

:02:03. > :02:06.an ongoing investigation into the supply of illegal drugs. It's also

:02:07. > :02:11.emerged he was forced to resign from the board of the Co-op group earlier

:02:12. > :02:20.this year because of his excessive expense claims. Our correspondent,

:02:21. > :02:25.Danny savage, is in Leeds for us. West Yorkshire police have been

:02:26. > :02:30.investigating the activities of Powell Paul Flowers for days now and

:02:31. > :02:33.last night they made their move. He was visited by police officers and

:02:34. > :02:39.arrested. For the best part of a week now, the

:02:40. > :02:43.life of Paul Flowers has been under intense scrutiny. Last night, he was

:02:44. > :02:58.arrested. In a statement, West Yorkshire Police said:

:02:59. > :03:04.It follows allegations made in a Sunday newspaper claiming the

:03:05. > :03:07.methodist minister handed over money for cocaine.

:03:08. > :03:12.He's since been suspended from the church, which has caused obvious

:03:13. > :03:17.embarrassment to them. Inevident thatibly this raises questions of

:03:18. > :03:22.the church as to how trustworthy it is but that can't be allowed to

:03:23. > :03:26.undermine the gracious gifts of God. It's also emerged today that the

:03:27. > :03:30.house he lived in in Bradford belongs to the methodist church.

:03:31. > :03:35.They said even though he's suspended, he can stay here. Last

:03:36. > :03:39.night, the BBC learned that Paul Flowers resigned from the Co-op

:03:40. > :03:42.Group over concerns about his expenses which had been described by

:03:43. > :03:46.one source as lavish. It was not my function, as the chair

:03:47. > :03:51.of the board, to have all those details... The Prime Minister's

:03:52. > :03:54.ordered an inquiry ass to how he was considered a suitable chairman for

:03:55. > :03:58.the Co-op Bank. So the clergyman at the centre of

:03:59. > :04:01.this storm is now being questioned in a police station in Leeds. We

:04:02. > :04:06.think it's this one here in the city centre. This is a storm which

:04:07. > :04:12.originated here in West Yorkshire, but which has since gone to the very

:04:13. > :04:17.top of British politics. Scotland Yard has been giving more

:04:18. > :04:21.details about its investigation into claims that three women had been

:04:22. > :04:26.held as domestic slaves at a house in South London for at least 30

:04:27. > :04:29.years. A couple in their 60s who were arrested yesterday have been

:04:30. > :04:34.released on police bail pending further inquiries. The women, aged

:04:35. > :04:38.30, 57 and 69 were rescued last monthed and are said to be deeply

:04:39. > :04:42.traumatised. Sophie Hutchinson has more.

:04:43. > :04:46.Somewhere on one of those streets in Lambeth in South London is the house

:04:47. > :04:51.where the three women were held. Captive for 30 years as modern day

:04:52. > :04:55.slaves. Their identities are being protected

:04:56. > :04:59.and the details are still searchy, but police have explained how they

:05:00. > :05:03.came to be alerted. On the 18th October, one of the women, a

:05:04. > :05:07.57-year-old from Ireland, called a charity which alerted the police.

:05:08. > :05:10.Three days later, officers passed the information to a human

:05:11. > :05:15.trafficking unit. On the 25th October, the Irish and

:05:16. > :05:18.British women escaped and a third from Malaysia, was then rescued at

:05:19. > :05:23.the house. The three women are described as

:05:24. > :05:27.being highly traumatised. They are now being cared for by specialists

:05:28. > :05:30.at an undisclosed location and experts say they'll require

:05:31. > :05:35.extensive help. They'll need to be feel safe,

:05:36. > :05:38.they'll need medical support and clinical psychological support.

:05:39. > :05:42.They'll need trauma counselling. Then they'll need help adjusting to

:05:43. > :05:45.a life of freedom where they are, for the first never mind their lives

:05:46. > :05:49.in this case of one of them, free to come and go as they please and make

:05:50. > :05:53.decisions that you and I take for granted every single day about what

:05:54. > :05:59.they want to do with their life. So just how widespread are cases

:06:00. > :06:05.like these? The global slavery index estimates there are between 4200 and

:06:06. > :06:09.4600 slaves in the UK. Detectives at the National Crime

:06:10. > :06:13.Agency say they encountered more than 2000 potential victims of human

:06:14. > :06:16.trafficking in the UK in the last year.

:06:17. > :06:20.Many people like to think that slavery's been consigned to the

:06:21. > :06:24.history books. Sadly, cases that we continue to see underline that there

:06:25. > :06:29.is this modern day slavery that is often out of sight. We are very

:06:30. > :06:33.focussed on ensuring that there is the operational support, getting

:06:34. > :06:37.agencies to do more, but also Leggetting.

:06:38. > :06:42.The police investigation is expected to be slow and complicated.

:06:43. > :06:46.A 67-year-old married cup who will were arrested in Lambeth yesterday

:06:47. > :06:52.have been released on bail until January.

:06:53. > :06:56.Our correspondent, Sarah Campbell, is at Scotland Yard. What more has

:06:57. > :07:00.been said today? Kate, a media briefing has just

:07:01. > :07:05.finished, so just to take you through some of the key points. The

:07:06. > :07:08.first thing, this is going to take some considerable time, they say,

:07:09. > :07:12.because they are ever Fick feck you havely trying to unpick a story

:07:13. > :07:16.that's lasted for 30 years. First of all, they dealt with the two

:07:17. > :07:20.suspects, the 67-year-old man and woman who were released on bail but

:07:21. > :07:23.haven't been able to go back to this house in South London.

:07:24. > :07:27.The police said although they are not British, they have been in the

:07:28. > :07:31.country for many years. They theyed this family to the outside world

:07:32. > :07:35.would have appeared as a normal family and would have had contact

:07:36. > :07:40.with the authorities and indeed they said that the two suspects were

:07:41. > :07:43.arrested in the 1970s. They are now looking to see whether they had any

:07:44. > :07:47.other contacts with the authorities, be that the police or any of the

:07:48. > :07:50.other authorities either. Now, in terms of the three women, what we

:07:51. > :07:54.know is that they were not trafficked into the UK, but what the

:07:55. > :07:59.police are looking into was a complicated story. They described it

:08:00. > :08:02.as invisible handcuffs. What was it that psychologically kept these

:08:03. > :08:05.women in that house for such a long period of time? They said again, as

:08:06. > :08:10.they said before, they don't expect there to be a sexual element to

:08:11. > :08:14.this, but they have confirmed the women were physically harmed in the

:08:15. > :08:17.form of beatings. They also said they were not looking for any other

:08:18. > :08:22.victims with regard to this. The house, we are told, has been

:08:23. > :08:29.searched over the last 12 hours. 55 bags of evidence have been removed,

:08:30. > :08:32.2500 exhibits. This will be an investigation that will that will

:08:33. > :08:38.continue for some substantial amount of time.

:08:39. > :08:44.Thank you. An inquest into the death of moirts Airheart who died while

:08:45. > :08:48.working at a city bank hears he died of natural causes.

:08:49. > :08:56.Our business correspondent, Emma Simpson, reports.

:08:57. > :09:00.Moritz, he was mature, very clever and ambitious.

:09:01. > :09:05.Bank of America, Merrill Lynch, was on the verge of offering him a job

:09:06. > :09:10.at the end of a summer internship. But, he was found dead in a shower

:09:11. > :09:15.at his flat in this East London block, used to house city interns.

:09:16. > :09:20.Today, at his inquest, it was confirmed that he died from an

:09:21. > :09:25.epileptic seizure. This inquest is looking into whether long working

:09:26. > :09:30.hours played a role in Moritz' death. His mentor at the bank told

:09:31. > :09:35.the court that in his last few days, the 21-year-old had done some

:09:36. > :09:40.exceptional hours, to my knowledge unheard of, he said, to me that is

:09:41. > :09:45.disturbing. He also said Moritz loved his work and was coping. His

:09:46. > :09:49.parents travelled from Germany to give evidence. They said their son

:09:50. > :09:55.had been on medication. It didn't stop him from having a normal life.

:09:56. > :10:00.The court heard no-one at the bank knew of his medical condition. The

:10:01. > :10:03.pathologist said he didn't rule out exhaustion as a trigger but there

:10:04. > :10:06.was no proof that it was. The coroner's verdict was that

:10:07. > :10:18.Moritz died from natural causes. All sucks Britons arrested by

:10:19. > :10:22.Russian authorities during a Greenpeace protest in the Arctic

:10:23. > :10:27.have been freed on bail after spending two months in detention.

:10:28. > :10:32.Kieron Bryan, Alex Harris, Matthew Perrett, were among 30 people

:10:33. > :10:36.charged with hooliganism at an ark till oil rig two months ago. They

:10:37. > :10:40.originally faced pyrery charges. Five of the six companies that own

:10:41. > :10:45.and operate Britain's electricity network have been told by the energy

:10:46. > :10:51.regulator to do more to cut bills. Ofgem rejected the firm's business

:10:52. > :10:57.plans for 2015 to 2023 with western power distribution, the only company

:10:58. > :11:02.to have its cost plans accepted. Emergency services in Latvia say at

:11:03. > :11:06.least 32 people have died after the roof of a large supermarket

:11:07. > :11:09.collapsed in the capital. Three killed were emergency workers

:11:10. > :11:13.helping people trapped when more of the roof then came down. The search

:11:14. > :11:19.for survivors continues. Nick Channel Islands reports.

:11:20. > :11:22.The jagged gaping hole that was a modern supermarket, clearly visible,

:11:23. > :11:26.the remnants of the roof garden that's the chief suspect in this

:11:27. > :11:31.catastrophic collapse, tonnes of soil weighed down further by heavy

:11:32. > :11:35.rain. It's been hampering the rescue workers as they've been searching

:11:36. > :11:42.for survives or more victims. Occasionally, the rescuers pause.

:11:43. > :11:46.We are make making like a silent moment and we are asking the victims

:11:47. > :11:48.to call the mobile phone of the persons so we can hear the sound of

:11:49. > :11:53.the phone. As the scale of the disaster has

:11:54. > :11:56.become increasingly apparent, the anxiety and grief of those waiting

:11:57. > :11:59.for news of missing relatives is clear to see.

:12:00. > :12:02.This man says he believes his wife was in the store. There's no

:12:03. > :12:07.information about whether she's alive or dead.

:12:08. > :12:11.The initial roof collapse came during last evening's rush hour.

:12:12. > :12:14.Then there was a second collapse, rescue workers among the victims.

:12:15. > :12:18.Eyewitnesses say some shoppers were trapped when the store's electronic

:12:19. > :12:20.door was shut automatically. The Government's already announced a

:12:21. > :12:24.police inquiry into construction standards.

:12:25. > :12:27.But for now, the focus is on the rescue effort, the massive clear-up

:12:28. > :12:37.and what the final cost in lives will be.

:12:38. > :12:43.Our main story this lunch time: The former chaimpl chairman of the

:12:44. > :12:49.Cooperative Bank, Paul Flowers, is arrested by police for supplying

:12:50. > :12:55.drugs. Still to come, 50 years after it was first broadcast, we explore

:12:56. > :13:00.the timeless appeal of Doctor Who. It is a children's programme that

:13:01. > :13:03.came a cult hit which turned into a global brand and perhaps one of the

:13:04. > :13:09.most culturally significant programmes to have been made.

:13:10. > :13:15.Later on BBC London: The Rugby League World Cup rolls into town

:13:16. > :13:20.with a Wembley semi-final double bill.

:13:21. > :13:24.And, wear it like Beckham. David and Victoria donate boxes of clothes to

:13:25. > :13:31.a Chelsea chair toy raise money for the Philippines.

:13:32. > :13:34.It's one of the few moments in history when those who were alive

:13:35. > :13:39.will always remember where they were when they heard about it.

:13:40. > :13:43.The assassination of President John F Kennedy. 50 years ago, he was shot

:13:44. > :13:47.dead in Dallas and today, crowds are gathering again to pay tribute to

:13:48. > :13:52.his legacy. Questions remain about how his presidency would have turned

:13:53. > :13:59.out if he lived, but the iconic images of that fateful day live on.

:14:00. > :14:04.Nick Brian sent this report. Love Field, Dallas, Texas.

:14:05. > :14:12.And the most beautiful couple who'd ever occupied the White House. They

:14:13. > :14:16.were about to embark on a journey that changed America and the world.

:14:17. > :14:21.Instantly Ike Openic, the images are so familiar, the welcoming crowds,

:14:22. > :14:27.the famed pink suit, the open-top limousine.

:14:28. > :14:31.There appears as though something's happened in the motorcade group.

:14:32. > :14:38.Something indeed has happened in the motorcade roof. The film caught John

:14:39. > :14:46.F Kennedy's last moments. Just a moment, just a moment. We

:14:47. > :14:49.have a bulletin. President Kennedy has been

:14:50. > :14:54.assassinated. It's official now. The President is dead.

:14:55. > :14:59.He was 46 years old. His fleeting presidency had lasted little more

:15:00. > :15:05.than 1,000 days. Pearce Allman was a young reporter

:15:06. > :15:10.that day, opposite the Texas school from where the shots rang out.

:15:11. > :15:14.This is 50 years later and I'm in the same spot.

:15:15. > :15:20.I can see Jackie and the President right there. I can see the car turn

:15:21. > :15:26.and, if I turn around and face it, I'll... I'll see the whole ten

:15:27. > :15:33.seconds again, maybe even in slow motion. It just, the impact is

:15:34. > :15:37.indescribable. The official version is that Lee Harvey Oswald, a former

:15:38. > :15:42.US marine, was the lone assassin. Just two days later, he himself was

:15:43. > :15:46.gunned down. Two thirds of the American people still find it

:15:47. > :15:49.unbelievable that a 24-year-old loner, with a 21 dollar rifle, could

:15:50. > :15:55.have assassinated the President on his own. Many of the conspiracy

:15:56. > :15:59.theories are even more implausible. 50 years on, we still don't have a

:16:00. > :16:07.definitive account of what happened at the world's most imfanous crime

:16:08. > :16:11.scene. Nor do we know how Kennedy's presidency would have unfolded. The

:16:12. > :16:14.public's been kinder to his memory than historians, but a central

:16:15. > :16:19.reason for his continuing fascination is that we all get to

:16:20. > :16:25.decide how his story could have ended.

:16:26. > :16:32.Nick is live in Dallas. What arrangements have been denied --

:16:33. > :16:35.made to mark today? 50 years ago Dallas was known as the city of

:16:36. > :16:40.hate. It is one of the reasons JFK was warned not to come here but

:16:41. > :16:43.today it will become a place of remembrance, of commemoration,

:16:44. > :16:52.perhaps even Atonement of people gather here Dealey Plaza to remember

:16:53. > :16:57.JFK's life and his death. There will be commemorations in Boston, his

:16:58. > :17:01.hometown, and in Washington, DC where President Barack Obama has

:17:02. > :17:06.ordered that flags be flown at half mask. He is one of history's

:17:07. > :17:10.endlessly malleable figures. As I say, we all get to decide how the

:17:11. > :17:15.fairy tale could have ended. For some, he's the president that would

:17:16. > :17:19.have extricated America from the horror of Vietnam. He would have

:17:20. > :17:24.been a racial healer. You may have saved America from the nightmare of

:17:25. > :17:29.Watergate. We are dealing with the myth as well as a man. He enlarged

:17:30. > :17:33.America's involvement in Vietnam. It was a bystander to the civil rights

:17:34. > :17:39.movement for the first two and a half years of his presidency and he

:17:40. > :17:42.was hit by scandal, known for their 1000 nights as well as their 1000

:17:43. > :17:46.date. It is a contradictory legacy in many ways and just as his

:17:47. > :17:52.assassination is argued over, so too is his contribution to American

:17:53. > :17:55.history. Unite there will be special -- special coverage of the

:17:56. > :18:01.commemorations in Dallas later today on the BBC News Channel at 6:30pm.

:18:02. > :18:07.New Anni it has been two weeks since Typhoon Haiyan hit the Philippines

:18:08. > :18:12.leaving at least I was -- 5000 people dead and large parts of the

:18:13. > :18:15.country devastated. Tacloban was hard hit with more bodies being

:18:16. > :18:22.discovered in the wreckage. As Jeremy Cooke reports the survivors

:18:23. > :18:30.are starting to rebuild their lives. There has been so much chaos but

:18:31. > :18:33.now, at last, there is order. The aid is arriving in Tacloban and

:18:34. > :18:40.systems to guarantee everyone has food and water. Rebuilding will take

:18:41. > :18:46.years but getting the power back online will help. No time for health

:18:47. > :18:56.and safe to hear. This is urgent work. And in every neighbourhood the

:18:57. > :19:02.people themselves are fighting back. For this family is a battle to

:19:03. > :19:06.retake their lives starts here. Their mission, to wash away all

:19:07. > :19:11.traces of the killer typhoon. With their school destroyed the girls,

:19:12. > :19:21.Angel and Tiffany, are helping out, doing all they can. It is a mess.

:19:22. > :19:26.But endorsed their grandmother is contemplating ruined -- but

:19:27. > :19:30.endorsed. Her brave face briefly breaks the tension and anxiety. I

:19:31. > :19:36.cannot leave this place. I will stay here. I was born here and I cannot

:19:37. > :19:40.afford to leave this place at my age. In reality she and her

:19:41. > :19:46.neighbours have little time to indulge in emotion. There is work to

:19:47. > :19:54.do in the street and they are getting on with it. Sammy is the

:19:55. > :20:00.woman's cousin. He has a house full of mud but he also has food, water,

:20:01. > :20:07.a home-made shovel and plenty of attitude. Positive attitude. After a

:20:08. > :20:13.war, it is peace. After the rain, the sunshine, that is all. As long

:20:14. > :20:21.as we are alive, we have breath, we work, go, movement. Clearly there is

:20:22. > :20:25.still so much work to do here but it is through their own hard work that

:20:26. > :20:27.the people themselves are making all the difference, cleaning up and

:20:28. > :20:34.moving on, determined that their city and their region will rise

:20:35. > :20:39.again. But there is still a mountain to climb. The sniffer dog is working

:20:40. > :20:45.flat out to find those victims who lie beneath the ruins of a two weeks

:20:46. > :20:51.on. A lot of the areas outside the main streets that were a priority to

:20:52. > :20:57.clear have not been swept, so we are coming up with dozens at a time.

:20:58. > :21:01.Dozens a day? Yes. And so it goes on. Every victim found adding to the

:21:02. > :21:10.confirmed total of lives taken by Typhoon Haiyan.

:21:11. > :21:14.More than ?40 million has been donated by the British public to

:21:15. > :21:16.help in the ongoing appeal for those affected by Typhoon Haiyan. Today,

:21:17. > :21:21.Victoria Beckham joined the fundraising effort with the fashion

:21:22. > :21:25.designer donating this mountain of shoes to a British Red Cross charity

:21:26. > :21:30.shop. She and her husband David also gave boxes of designer clothes with

:21:31. > :21:39.the items going on save Russ-macro sale in Chelsea in central London.

:21:40. > :21:44.England suffered a dreadful day Down Under as they collapsed from 82-2,

:21:45. > :21:48.to 91-8 on the second day of the first Ashes test macro in Brisbane.

:21:49. > :21:55.England were all out at 136. Australia were 65 without loss, a

:21:56. > :22:00.lead of 224. Joe Wilson reports from the gamma. As you enter the Gabba

:22:01. > :22:03.ground there is a picture of Aussie cricketers as working class heroes,

:22:04. > :22:07.and washed warriors ready for battle. It is all marketing but

:22:08. > :22:11.suddenly Australia's cricket matches the image. There is nothing fake

:22:12. > :22:17.about Ryan Harris. Charging in is what he does, too good for Alastair

:22:18. > :22:21.Cook here. England won down in reply to Australia's 295. Mitchell

:22:22. > :22:27.Johnson, so mocked for inaccuracy, struck before lunch. A faint touch

:22:28. > :22:34.from Trott, 55-2. To be victims of Australia, Alastair Cook and

:22:35. > :22:37.Jonathan Trott. Big reputations, they have endured miserable English

:22:38. > :22:42.summers so who is going to come to England's rescue now here at the

:22:43. > :22:47.Gabba? Kevin Pietersen, in his 100th test macro, he made 18, Court

:22:48. > :22:51.Bailey, bold Harris. Michael Carberry in just his second test

:22:52. > :22:56.match battle to 40 but Johnson got in and now England were gripped by

:22:57. > :23:04.fear. No Bell to save them this time. He made five. The rain ball,

:23:05. > :23:09.replays proved he had hit the ball. Three wickets had fallen with the

:23:10. > :23:13.score on 87. Johnson tour in like a fast bowler reborn. Joe Root helps

:23:14. > :23:18.him. When Graeme Swann was England had lost six wickets for nine runs.

:23:19. > :23:23.In terms of batting collapses almost an all-time low. England were all

:23:24. > :23:28.out for 136. When is it doesn't quite go to plan there is always a

:23:29. > :23:33.slight feeling of disappointment but we are approved -- bridges are

:23:34. > :23:36.confident bunch in our abilities and how we bounce back from

:23:37. > :23:41.disappointing days because you will have those as gritters. We picked --

:23:42. > :23:51.pretty confident we can do it. By the close Australia were passed 50,

:23:52. > :23:55.224 ahead, almost out of sight. For many it is perhaps best watched

:23:56. > :23:58.from behind the sofa but there will be plenty of people turning on the

:23:59. > :24:04.TV this weekend to watch the world's most famous time traveller

:24:05. > :24:08.turned 50. To mark the programme's does by a special 50th anniversary

:24:09. > :24:11.episode is being shown on BBC One tomorrow featuring not one, but

:24:12. > :24:15.three doctors. Our arts editor Will Gompertz has been looking back at

:24:16. > :24:16.five decades of the Time Lord and has been given exclusive access to

:24:17. > :24:26.the TARDIS. CREAKING. It really is, you know,

:24:27. > :24:47.big on the inside. 50 years ago at 5:15pm on the 23rd

:24:48. > :24:51.of November, 1963, a mysterious exile from another world appeared on

:24:52. > :25:11.BBC One. Get back! Atone for the show was set not by

:25:12. > :25:13.the writers or producers but by the ingenious techies in the BBC

:25:14. > :25:33.Radiophonic Workshop, who could make lo-fi sound high-tech. Whoops!

:25:34. > :25:40.If a goodie is going to be really good he needs a baddie who is really

:25:41. > :25:49.bad and the programme has created some iconic foes from clone warriors

:25:50. > :25:54.to cybernetic armies. But it was the introduction in only the second

:25:55. > :26:00.story of the most heinous, demotic mutants that made it and them

:26:01. > :26:06.famous. The Daleks. Exterminate, exterminate.

:26:07. > :26:16.The doctor has survived the Daleks so far and as they say what doesn't

:26:17. > :26:23.kill you makes you stronger. Doctor Who had become an appointment to

:26:24. > :26:33.view, TV must see. But if you had to give just one reason for the show's

:26:34. > :26:46.lasting success it would be this. DOCTOR WHO MUSIC. To make the doctor

:26:47. > :26:50.capable of reincarnation was a brilliant idea. It allowed the music

:26:51. > :26:55.-- it allowed that showed to stay fresh and the character to develop.

:26:56. > :26:57.Each new doctor had a different personality and tastes but some

:26:58. > :27:02.characteristics have always date the same. He's essentially an upper

:27:03. > :27:06.middle-class English eccentric, an intellectual bohemian and on the

:27:07. > :27:08.whole and in the UCI stick optimist. He is part mad Professor, part

:27:09. > :27:20.intergalactic crime-fighter. In 1989 the Doctor Who brand had

:27:21. > :27:24.grown tired. Audiences were falling and enthusiasm within the BBC was

:27:25. > :27:28.waning. A fictional series about the future was beginning to feel a

:27:29. > :27:34.little old-fashioned. The show was closed. But then, in 2005, under the

:27:35. > :27:43.creative direction of scriptwriter Russell T Davies the Whoniverse was

:27:44. > :27:50.bought back to life. The trip of a lifetime.

:27:51. > :27:58.Oh, lovely. Doctor Who is remarkable and not just because it is the

:27:59. > :28:05.longest running sci-fi show in history. Academics have discussed

:28:06. > :28:09.philosophical issues arising from it. The programme has been the

:28:10. > :28:15.inspiration for books, films and even electronic music. It is a

:28:16. > :28:19.children's programme that became a cult hit, which turned into a global

:28:20. > :28:20.brand and perhaps one of the most culturally significant programmes to

:28:21. > :28:35.have been made. There you go, time now for a look at

:28:36. > :28:45.the weather. It is a good day to rake up the

:28:46. > :28:49.leaves in the garden. Plenty of sunshine out there. It is dry with

:28:50. > :28:53.light winds. Albeit rather chilly. It was a cold start across northern

:28:54. > :28:56.parts of the UK this morning. However, if you look at the

:28:57. > :29:00.satellite picture you can see how much sunshine there is but not all

:29:01. > :29:03.areas are dry. There are patches of showers across the north-east of

:29:04. > :29:06.England and still running across the far south-east of England, seeing

:29:07. > :29:11.some showers clipping eastern Kent. Thicker cloud across the North of

:29:12. > :29:14.Scotland. One or two showers peppering the north coast. Miles,

:29:15. > :29:18.with westerly breeze. For central, southern Scotland it is cold but

:29:19. > :29:23.lots of sunshine as there will be across north-west England. The

:29:24. > :29:26.showers continuing effect -- continuing to affect the north-east

:29:27. > :29:30.corner of England and eastern Kent. Further west it is a lovely fine

:29:31. > :29:35.picture, especially across the south-west of England. Temperatures

:29:36. > :29:37.around seven or eight Celsius. For Wales, a lovely afternoon but

:29:38. > :29:42.thicker cloud across the west of Wales, one or two showers peppering

:29:43. > :29:45.the western fringes, some showers running through the Irish Sea. A

:29:46. > :29:50.lovely Isle of Dogs -- afternoon for the Isle of Man and Northern

:29:51. > :29:53.Ireland, temperatures of around six Celsius for Belfast. This evening

:29:54. > :29:56.temperatures fall quickly across Northern Ireland and central

:29:57. > :29:59.southern Scotland and northern England. Avail of cloud will move

:30:00. > :30:05.south. It will not be quite as cold as last night. Still the sub-zero

:30:06. > :30:09.temperatures, where we get frost through England and Wales we could

:30:10. > :30:15.seek patches of fog. Some could be dense for a while. On Saturday and

:30:16. > :30:19.area of high pressure begins to push in slowly eastwards. It gives a run

:30:20. > :30:22.of light northerly winds, some moisture in the air so it will feed

:30:23. > :30:26.in a fair amount of cloud. This is the picture for Saturday. The

:30:27. > :30:30.northern half of the country rather cloudy, spits and spots of rain for

:30:31. > :30:33.the north-west corner of Scotland but south-east Scotland, much of

:30:34. > :30:37.Wales and the Midlands and southern England, not too bad with spells of

:30:38. > :30:42.sunshine, patchy cloud coming and going and temperatures two - eight

:30:43. > :30:46.Celsius. We have two semifinal rugby League Cup matches going on at

:30:47. > :30:50.Wembley on Saturday. Good, fine conditions but quite cool for the

:30:51. > :30:54.spectators. Sunday is looking cloudier particularly for the

:30:55. > :30:58.northern half of the country. Spots of rain across the north and east.

:30:59. > :31:01.With shelter, southern Wales and south-west of England have the best

:31:02. > :31:06.with the sunshine. Temperatures in single figures. It stays on the

:31:07. > :31:09.chilly side for the weekend, rather cloudy particularly on Sunday but at

:31:10. > :31:15.least for most it should be mainly dry. A settled weekend to come.

:31:16. > :31:20.The top stories. A former chairman of the corporatist bang Paul Flowers

:31:21. > :31:25.is arrested by police investigating the supply of illegal drugs and

:31:26. > :31:28.Scotland Yard say a couple arrested in connection with allegations of

:31:29. > :31:32.domestic slavery in south London have previously been arrested in the

:31:33. > :31:33.1970s. That is all from us
