And, see who's made it to the Gold Cup of high achieving schools in the

Capital. Good afternoon. Welcome to BBC News

:01:36.:01:51.

at One. The former chairman of the

:01:52.:01:54.

Cooperative Bank, Paul Flowers, has been arrested by West Yorkshire

:01:55.:01:58.

Police. The 63-year-old was detained on Merseyside last night as part of

:01:59.:02:02.

an ongoing investigation into the supply of illegal drugs. It's also

:02:03.:02:06.

emerged he was forced to resign from the board of the Co-op group earlier

:02:07.:02:11.

this year because of his excessive expense claims. Our correspondent,

:02:12.:02:20.

Danny savage, is in Leeds for us. West Yorkshire police have been

:02:21.:02:25.

investigating the activities of Powell Paul Flowers for days now and

:02:26.:02:30.

last night they made their move. He was visited by police officers and

:02:31.:02:33.

arrested. For the best part of a week now, the

:02:34.:02:39.

life of Paul Flowers has been under intense scrutiny. Last night, he was

:02:40.:02:43.

arrested. In a statement, West Yorkshire Police said:

:02:44.:02:58.

It follows allegations made in a Sunday newspaper claiming the

:02:59.:03:04.

methodist minister handed over money for cocaine.

:03:05.:03:07.

He's since been suspended from the church, which has caused obvious

:03:08.:03:12.

embarrassment to them. Inevident thatibly this raises questions of

:03:13.:03:17.

the church as to how trustworthy it is but that can't be allowed to

:03:18.:03:22.

undermine the gracious gifts of God. It's also emerged today that the

:03:23.:03:26.

house he lived in in Bradford belongs to the methodist church.

:03:27.:03:30.

They said even though he's suspended, he can stay here. Last

:03:31.:03:35.

night, the BBC learned that Paul Flowers resigned from the Co-op

:03:36.:03:39.

Group over concerns about his expenses which had been described by

:03:40.:03:42.

one source as lavish. It was not my function, as the chair

:03:43.:03:46.

of the board, to have all those details... The Prime Minister's

:03:47.:03:51.

ordered an inquiry ass to how he was considered a suitable chairman for

:03:52.:03:54.

the Co-op Bank. So the clergyman at the centre of

:03:55.:03:58.

this storm is now being questioned in a police station in Leeds. We

:03:59.:04:01.

think it's this one here in the city centre. This is a storm which

:04:02.:04:06.

originated here in West Yorkshire, but which has since gone to the very

:04:07.:04:12.

top of British politics. Scotland Yard has been giving more

:04:13.:04:17.

details about its investigation into claims that three women had been

:04:18.:04:21.

held as domestic slaves at a house in South London for at least 30

:04:22.:04:26.

years. A couple in their 60s who were arrested yesterday have been

:04:27.:04:29.

released on police bail pending further inquiries. The women, aged

:04:30.:04:34.

30, 57 and 69 were rescued last monthed and are said to be deeply

:04:35.:04:38.

traumatised. Sophie Hutchinson has more.

:04:39.:04:42.

Somewhere on one of those streets in Lambeth in South London is the house

:04:43.:04:46.

where the three women were held. Captive for 30 years as modern day

:04:47.:04:51.

slaves. Their identities are being protected

:04:52.:04:55.

and the details are still searchy, but police have explained how they

:04:56.:04:59.

came to be alerted. On the 18th October, one of the women, a

:05:00.:05:03.

57-year-old from Ireland, called a charity which alerted the police.

:05:04.:05:07.

Three days later, officers passed the information to a human

:05:08.:05:10.

trafficking unit. On the 25th October, the Irish and

:05:11.:05:15.

British women escaped and a third from Malaysia, was then rescued at

:05:16.:05:18.

the house. The three women are described as

:05:19.:05:23.

being highly traumatised. They are now being cared for by specialists

:05:24.:05:27.

at an undisclosed location and experts say they'll require

:05:28.:05:30.

extensive help. They'll need to be feel safe,

:05:31.:05:35.

they'll need medical support and clinical psychological support.

:05:36.:05:38.

They'll need trauma counselling. Then they'll need help adjusting to

:05:39.:05:42.

a life of freedom where they are, for the first never mind their lives

:05:43.:05:45.

in this case of one of them, free to come and go as they please and make

:05:46.:05:49.

decisions that you and I take for granted every single day about what

:05:50.:05:53.

they want to do with their life. So just how widespread are cases

:05:54.:05:59.

like these? The global slavery index estimates there are between 4200 and

:06:00.:06:05.

4600 slaves in the UK. Detectives at the National Crime

:06:06.:06:09.

Agency say they encountered more than 2000 potential victims of human

:06:10.:06:13.

trafficking in the UK in the last year.

:06:14.:06:16.

Many people like to think that slavery's been consigned to the

:06:17.:06:20.

history books. Sadly, cases that we continue to see underline that there

:06:21.:06:24.

is this modern day slavery that is often out of sight. We are very

:06:25.:06:29.

focussed on ensuring that there is the operational support, getting

:06:30.:06:33.

agencies to do more, but also Leggetting.

:06:34.:06:37.

The police investigation is expected to be slow and complicated.

:06:38.:06:42.

A 67-year-old married cup who will were arrested in Lambeth yesterday

:06:43.:06:46.

have been released on bail until January.

:06:47.:06:52.

Our correspondent, Sarah Campbell, is at Scotland Yard. What more has

:06:53.:06:56.

been said today? Kate, a media briefing has just

:06:57.:07:00.

finished, so just to take you through some of the key points. The

:07:01.:07:05.

first thing, this is going to take some considerable time, they say,

:07:06.:07:08.

because they are ever Fick feck you havely trying to unpick a story

:07:09.:07:12.

that's lasted for 30 years. First of all, they dealt with the two

:07:13.:07:16.

suspects, the 67-year-old man and woman who were released on bail but

:07:17.:07:20.

haven't been able to go back to this house in South London.

:07:21.:07:23.

The police said although they are not British, they have been in the

:07:24.:07:27.

country for many years. They theyed this family to the outside world

:07:28.:07:31.

would have appeared as a normal family and would have had contact

:07:32.:07:35.

with the authorities and indeed they said that the two suspects were

:07:36.:07:40.

arrested in the 1970s. They are now looking to see whether they had any

:07:41.:07:43.

other contacts with the authorities, be that the police or any of the

:07:44.:07:47.

other authorities either. Now, in terms of the three women, what we

:07:48.:07:50.

know is that they were not trafficked into the UK, but what the

:07:51.:07:54.

police are looking into was a complicated story. They described it

:07:55.:07:59.

as invisible handcuffs. What was it that psychologically kept these

:08:00.:08:02.

women in that house for such a long period of time? They said again, as

:08:03.:08:05.

they said before, they don't expect there to be a sexual element to

:08:06.:08:10.

this, but they have confirmed the women were physically harmed in the

:08:11.:08:14.

form of beatings. They also said they were not looking for any other

:08:15.:08:17.

victims with regard to this. The house, we are told, has been

:08:18.:08:22.

searched over the last 12 hours. 55 bags of evidence have been removed,

:08:23.:08:29.

2500 exhibits. This will be an investigation that will that will

:08:30.:08:32.

continue for some substantial amount of time.

:08:33.:08:38.

Thank you. An inquest into the death of moirts Airheart who died while

:08:39.:08:44.

working at a city bank hears he died of natural causes.

:08:45.:08:48.

Our business correspondent, Emma Simpson, reports.

:08:49.:08:56.

Moritz, he was mature, very clever and ambitious.

:08:57.:09:00.

Bank of America, Merrill Lynch, was on the verge of offering him a job

:09:01.:09:05.

at the end of a summer internship. But, he was found dead in a shower

:09:06.:09:10.

at his flat in this East London block, used to house city interns.

:09:11.:09:15.

Today, at his inquest, it was confirmed that he died from an

:09:16.:09:20.

epileptic seizure. This inquest is looking into whether long working

:09:21.:09:25.

hours played a role in Moritz' death. His mentor at the bank told

:09:26.:09:30.

the court that in his last few days, the 21-year-old had done some

:09:31.:09:35.

exceptional hours, to my knowledge unheard of, he said, to me that is

:09:36.:09:40.

disturbing. He also said Moritz loved his work and was coping. His

:09:41.:09:45.

parents travelled from Germany to give evidence. They said their son

:09:46.:09:49.

had been on medication. It didn't stop him from having a normal life.

:09:50.:09:55.

The court heard no-one at the bank knew of his medical condition. The

:09:56.:10:00.

pathologist said he didn't rule out exhaustion as a trigger but there

:10:01.:10:03.

was no proof that it was. The coroner's verdict was that

:10:04.:10:06.

Moritz died from natural causes. All sucks Britons arrested by

:10:07.:10:18.

Russian authorities during a Greenpeace protest in the Arctic

:10:19.:10:22.

have been freed on bail after spending two months in detention.

:10:23.:10:27.

Kieron Bryan, Alex Harris, Matthew Perrett, were among 30 people

:10:28.:10:32.

charged with hooliganism at an ark till oil rig two months ago. They

:10:33.:10:36.

originally faced pyrery charges. Five of the six companies that own

:10:37.:10:40.

and operate Britain's electricity network have been told by the energy

:10:41.:10:45.

regulator to do more to cut bills. Ofgem rejected the firm's business

:10:46.:10:51.

plans for 2015 to 2023 with western power distribution, the only company

:10:52.:10:57.

to have its cost plans accepted. Emergency services in Latvia say at

:10:58.:11:02.

least 32 people have died after the roof of a large supermarket

:11:03.:11:06.

collapsed in the capital. Three killed were emergency workers

:11:07.:11:09.

helping people trapped when more of the roof then came down. The search

:11:10.:11:13.

for survivors continues. Nick Channel Islands reports.

:11:14.:11:19.

The jagged gaping hole that was a modern supermarket, clearly visible,

:11:20.:11:22.

the remnants of the roof garden that's the chief suspect in this

:11:23.:11:26.

catastrophic collapse, tonnes of soil weighed down further by heavy

:11:27.:11:31.

rain. It's been hampering the rescue workers as they've been searching

:11:32.:11:35.

for survives or more victims. Occasionally, the rescuers pause.

:11:36.:11:42.

We are make making like a silent moment and we are asking the victims

:11:43.:11:46.

to call the mobile phone of the persons so we can hear the sound of

:11:47.:11:48.

the phone. As the scale of the disaster has

:11:49.:11:53.

become increasingly apparent, the anxiety and grief of those waiting

:11:54.:11:56.

for news of missing relatives is clear to see.

:11:57.:11:59.

This man says he believes his wife was in the store. There's no

:12:00.:12:02.

information about whether she's alive or dead.

:12:03.:12:07.

The initial roof collapse came during last evening's rush hour.

:12:08.:12:11.

Then there was a second collapse, rescue workers among the victims.

:12:12.:12:14.

Eyewitnesses say some shoppers were trapped when the store's electronic

:12:15.:12:18.

door was shut automatically. The Government's already announced a

:12:19.:12:20.

police inquiry into construction standards.

:12:21.:12:24.

But for now, the focus is on the rescue effort, the massive clear-up

:12:25.:12:27.

and what the final cost in lives will be.

:12:28.:12:37.

Our main story this lunch time: The former chaimpl chairman of the

:12:38.:12:43.

Cooperative Bank, Paul Flowers, is arrested by police for supplying

:12:44.:12:49.

drugs. Still to come, 50 years after it was first broadcast, we explore

:12:50.:12:55.

the timeless appeal of Doctor Who. It is a children's programme that

:12:56.:13:00.

came a cult hit which turned into a global brand and perhaps one of the

:13:01.:13:03.

most culturally significant programmes to have been made.

:13:04.:13:09.

Later on BBC London: The Rugby League World Cup rolls into town

:13:10.:13:15.

with a Wembley semi-final double bill.

:13:16.:13:20.

And, wear it like Beckham. David and Victoria donate boxes of clothes to

:13:21.:13:24.

a Chelsea chair toy raise money for the Philippines.

:13:25.:13:31.

It's one of the few moments in history when those who were alive

:13:32.:13:34.

will always remember where they were when they heard about it.

:13:35.:13:39.

The assassination of President John F Kennedy. 50 years ago, he was shot

:13:40.:13:43.

dead in Dallas and today, crowds are gathering again to pay tribute to

:13:44.:13:47.

his legacy. Questions remain about how his presidency would have turned

:13:48.:13:52.

out if he lived, but the iconic images of that fateful day live on.

:13:53.:13:59.

Nick Brian sent this report. Love Field, Dallas, Texas.

:14:00.:14:04.

And the most beautiful couple who'd ever occupied the White House. They

:14:05.:14:12.

were about to embark on a journey that changed America and the world.

:14:13.:14:16.

Instantly Ike Openic, the images are so familiar, the welcoming crowds,

:14:17.:14:21.

the famed pink suit, the open-top limousine.

:14:22.:14:27.

There appears as though something's happened in the motorcade group.

:14:28.:14:31.

Something indeed has happened in the motorcade roof. The film caught John

:14:32.:14:38.

F Kennedy's last moments. Just a moment, just a moment. We

:14:39.:14:46.

have a bulletin. President Kennedy has been

:14:47.:14:49.

assassinated. It's official now. The President is dead.

:14:50.:14:54.

He was 46 years old. His fleeting presidency had lasted little more

:14:55.:14:59.

than 1,000 days. Pearce Allman was a young reporter

:15:00.:15:05.

that day, opposite the Texas school from where the shots rang out.

:15:06.:15:10.

This is 50 years later and I'm in the same spot.

:15:11.:15:14.

I can see Jackie and the President right there. I can see the car turn

:15:15.:15:20.

and, if I turn around and face it, I'll... I'll see the whole ten

:15:21.:15:26.

seconds again, maybe even in slow motion. It just, the impact is

:15:27.:15:33.

indescribable. The official version is that Lee Harvey Oswald, a former

:15:34.:15:37.

US marine, was the lone assassin. Just two days later, he himself was

:15:38.:15:42.

gunned down. Two thirds of the American people still find it

:15:43.:15:46.

unbelievable that a 24-year-old loner, with a 21 dollar rifle, could

:15:47.:15:49.

have assassinated the President on his own. Many of the conspiracy

:15:50.:15:55.

theories are even more implausible. 50 years on, we still don't have a

:15:56.:15:59.

definitive account of what happened at the world's most imfanous crime

:16:00.:16:07.

scene. Nor do we know how Kennedy's presidency would have unfolded. The

:16:08.:16:11.

public's been kinder to his memory than historians, but a central

:16:12.:16:14.

reason for his continuing fascination is that we all get to

:16:15.:16:19.

decide how his story could have ended.

:16:20.:16:25.

Nick is live in Dallas. What arrangements have been denied --

:16:26.:16:32.

made to mark today? 50 years ago Dallas was known as the city of

:16:33.:16:35.

hate. It is one of the reasons JFK was warned not to come here but

:16:36.:16:40.

today it will become a place of remembrance, of commemoration,

:16:41.:16:43.

perhaps even Atonement of people gather here Dealey Plaza to remember

:16:44.:16:52.

JFK's life and his death. There will be commemorations in Boston, his

:16:53.:16:57.

hometown, and in Washington, DC where President Barack Obama has

:16:58.:17:01.

ordered that flags be flown at half mask. He is one of history's

:17:02.:17:06.

endlessly malleable figures. As I say, we all get to decide how the

:17:07.:17:10.

fairy tale could have ended. For some, he's the president that would

:17:11.:17:15.

have extricated America from the horror of Vietnam. He would have

:17:16.:17:19.

been a racial healer. You may have saved America from the nightmare of

:17:20.:17:24.

Watergate. We are dealing with the myth as well as a man. He enlarged

:17:25.:17:29.

America's involvement in Vietnam. It was a bystander to the civil rights

:17:30.:17:33.

movement for the first two and a half years of his presidency and he

:17:34.:17:39.

was hit by scandal, known for their 1000 nights as well as their 1000

:17:40.:17:42.

date. It is a contradictory legacy in many ways and just as his

:17:43.:17:46.

assassination is argued over, so too is his contribution to American

:17:47.:17:52.

history. Unite there will be special -- special coverage of the

:17:53.:17:55.

commemorations in Dallas later today on the BBC News Channel at 6:30pm.

:17:56.:18:01.

New Anni it has been two weeks since Typhoon Haiyan hit the Philippines

:18:02.:18:07.

leaving at least I was -- 5000 people dead and large parts of the

:18:08.:18:12.

country devastated. Tacloban was hard hit with more bodies being

:18:13.:18:15.

discovered in the wreckage. As Jeremy Cooke reports the survivors

:18:16.:18:22.

are starting to rebuild their lives. There has been so much chaos but

:18:23.:18:30.

now, at last, there is order. The aid is arriving in Tacloban and

:18:31.:18:33.

systems to guarantee everyone has food and water. Rebuilding will take

:18:34.:18:40.

years but getting the power back online will help. No time for health

:18:41.:18:46.

and safe to hear. This is urgent work. And in every neighbourhood the

:18:47.:18:56.

people themselves are fighting back. For this family is a battle to

:18:57.:19:02.

retake their lives starts here. Their mission, to wash away all

:19:03.:19:06.

traces of the killer typhoon. With their school destroyed the girls,

:19:07.:19:11.

Angel and Tiffany, are helping out, doing all they can. It is a mess.

:19:12.:19:21.

But endorsed their grandmother is contemplating ruined -- but

:19:22.:19:26.

endorsed. Her brave face briefly breaks the tension and anxiety. I

:19:27.:19:30.

cannot leave this place. I will stay here. I was born here and I cannot

:19:31.:19:36.

afford to leave this place at my age. In reality she and her

:19:37.:19:40.

neighbours have little time to indulge in emotion. There is work to

:19:41.:19:46.

do in the street and they are getting on with it. Sammy is the

:19:47.:19:54.

woman's cousin. He has a house full of mud but he also has food, water,

:19:55.:20:00.

a home-made shovel and plenty of attitude. Positive attitude. After a

:20:01.:20:07.

war, it is peace. After the rain, the sunshine, that is all. As long

:20:08.:20:13.

as we are alive, we have breath, we work, go, movement. Clearly there is

:20:14.:20:21.

still so much work to do here but it is through their own hard work that

:20:22.:20:25.

the people themselves are making all the difference, cleaning up and

:20:26.:20:27.

moving on, determined that their city and their region will rise

:20:28.:20:34.

again. But there is still a mountain to climb. The sniffer dog is working

:20:35.:20:39.

flat out to find those victims who lie beneath the ruins of a two weeks

:20:40.:20:45.

on. A lot of the areas outside the main streets that were a priority to

:20:46.:20:51.

clear have not been swept, so we are coming up with dozens at a time.

:20:52.:20:57.

Dozens a day? Yes. And so it goes on. Every victim found adding to the

:20:58.:21:01.

confirmed total of lives taken by Typhoon Haiyan.

:21:02.:21:10.

More than ?40 million has been donated by the British public to

:21:11.:21:14.

help in the ongoing appeal for those affected by Typhoon Haiyan. Today,

:21:15.:21:16.

Victoria Beckham joined the fundraising effort with the fashion

:21:17.:21:21.

designer donating this mountain of shoes to a British Red Cross charity

:21:22.:21:25.

shop. She and her husband David also gave boxes of designer clothes with

:21:26.:21:30.

the items going on save Russ-macro sale in Chelsea in central London.

:21:31.:21:39.

England suffered a dreadful day Down Under as they collapsed from 82-2,

:21:40.:21:44.

to 91-8 on the second day of the first Ashes test macro in Brisbane.

:21:45.:21:48.

England were all out at 136. Australia were 65 without loss, a

:21:49.:21:55.

lead of 224. Joe Wilson reports from the gamma. As you enter the Gabba

:21:56.:22:00.

ground there is a picture of Aussie cricketers as working class heroes,

:22:01.:22:03.

and washed warriors ready for battle. It is all marketing but

:22:04.:22:07.

suddenly Australia's cricket matches the image. There is nothing fake

:22:08.:22:11.

about Ryan Harris. Charging in is what he does, too good for Alastair

:22:12.:22:17.

Cook here. England won down in reply to Australia's 295. Mitchell

:22:18.:22:21.

Johnson, so mocked for inaccuracy, struck before lunch. A faint touch

:22:22.:22:27.

from Trott, 55-2. To be victims of Australia, Alastair Cook and

:22:28.:22:34.

Jonathan Trott. Big reputations, they have endured miserable English

:22:35.:22:37.

summers so who is going to come to England's rescue now here at the

:22:38.:22:42.

Gabba? Kevin Pietersen, in his 100th test macro, he made 18, Court

:22:43.:22:47.

Bailey, bold Harris. Michael Carberry in just his second test

:22:48.:22:51.

match battle to 40 but Johnson got in and now England were gripped by

:22:52.:22:56.

fear. No Bell to save them this time. He made five. The rain ball,

:22:57.:23:04.

replays proved he had hit the ball. Three wickets had fallen with the

:23:05.:23:09.

score on 87. Johnson tour in like a fast bowler reborn. Joe Root helps

:23:10.:23:13.

him. When Graeme Swann was England had lost six wickets for nine runs.

:23:14.:23:18.

In terms of batting collapses almost an all-time low. England were all

:23:19.:23:23.

out for 136. When is it doesn't quite go to plan there is always a

:23:24.:23:28.

slight feeling of disappointment but we are approved -- bridges are

:23:29.:23:33.

confident bunch in our abilities and how we bounce back from

:23:34.:23:36.

disappointing days because you will have those as gritters. We picked --

:23:37.:23:41.

pretty confident we can do it. By the close Australia were passed 50,

:23:42.:23:51.

224 ahead, almost out of sight. For many it is perhaps best watched

:23:52.:23:55.

from behind the sofa but there will be plenty of people turning on the

:23:56.:23:58.

TV this weekend to watch the world's most famous time traveller

:23:59.:24:04.

turned 50. To mark the programme's does by a special 50th anniversary

:24:05.:24:08.

episode is being shown on BBC One tomorrow featuring not one, but

:24:09.:24:11.

three doctors. Our arts editor Will Gompertz has been looking back at

:24:12.:24:15.

five decades of the Time Lord and has been given exclusive access to

:24:16.:24:16.

the TARDIS. CREAKING. It really is, you know,

:24:17.:24:26.

big on the inside. 50 years ago at 5:15pm on the 23rd

:24:27.:24:47.

of November, 1963, a mysterious exile from another world appeared on

:24:48.:24:51.

BBC One. Get back! Atone for the show was set not by

:24:52.:25:11.

the writers or producers but by the ingenious techies in the BBC

:25:12.:25:13.

Radiophonic Workshop, who could make lo-fi sound high-tech. Whoops!

:25:14.:25:33.

If a goodie is going to be really good he needs a baddie who is really

:25:34.:25:40.

bad and the programme has created some iconic foes from clone warriors

:25:41.:25:49.

to cybernetic armies. But it was the introduction in only the second

:25:50.:25:54.

story of the most heinous, demotic mutants that made it and them

:25:55.:26:00.

famous. The Daleks. Exterminate, exterminate.

:26:01.:26:06.

The doctor has survived the Daleks so far and as they say what doesn't

:26:07.:26:16.

kill you makes you stronger. Doctor Who had become an appointment to

:26:17.:26:23.

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

:26:24.:26:33.

lasting success it would be this. DOCTOR WHO MUSIC. To make the doctor

:26:34.:26:46.

capable of reincarnation was a brilliant idea. It allowed the music

:26:47.:26:50.

-- it allowed that showed to stay fresh and the character to develop.

:26:51.:26:55.

Each new doctor had a different personality and tastes but some

:26:56.:26:57.

characteristics have always date the same. He's essentially an upper

:26:58.:27:02.

middle-class English eccentric, an intellectual bohemian and on the

:27:03.:27:06.

whole and in the UCI stick optimist. He is part mad Professor, part

:27:07.:27:08.

intergalactic crime-fighter. In 1989 the Doctor Who brand had

:27:09.:27:20.

grown tired. Audiences were falling and enthusiasm within the BBC was

:27:21.:27:24.

waning. A fictional series about the future was beginning to feel a

:27:25.:27:28.

little old-fashioned. The show was closed. But then, in 2005, under the

:27:29.:27:34.

creative direction of scriptwriter Russell T Davies the Whoniverse was

:27:35.:27:43.

bought back to life. The trip of a lifetime.

:27:44.:27:50.

Oh, lovely. Doctor Who is remarkable and not just because it is the

:27:51.:27:58.

longest running sci-fi show in history. Academics have discussed

:27:59.:28:05.

philosophical issues arising from it. The programme has been the

:28:06.:28:09.

inspiration for books, films and even electronic music. It is a

:28:10.:28:15.

children's programme that became a cult hit, which turned into a global

:28:16.:28:19.

brand and perhaps one of the most culturally significant programmes to

:28:20.:28:20.

have been made. There you go, time now for a look at

:28:21.:28:35.

the weather. It is a good day to rake up the

:28:36.:28:45.

leaves in the garden. Plenty of sunshine out there. It is dry with

:28:46.:28:49.

light winds. Albeit rather chilly. It was a cold start across northern

:28:50.:28:53.

parts of the UK this morning. However, if you look at the

:28:54.:28:56.

satellite picture you can see how much sunshine there is but not all

:28:57.:29:00.

areas are dry. There are patches of showers across the north-east of

:29:01.:29:03.

England and still running across the far south-east of England, seeing

:29:04.:29:06.

some showers clipping eastern Kent. Thicker cloud across the North of

:29:07.:29:11.

Scotland. One or two showers peppering the north coast. Miles,

:29:12.:29:14.

with westerly breeze. For central, southern Scotland it is cold but

:29:15.:29:18.

lots of sunshine as there will be across north-west England. The

:29:19.:29:23.

showers continuing effect -- continuing to affect the north-east

:29:24.:29:26.

corner of England and eastern Kent. Further west it is a lovely fine

:29:27.:29:30.

picture, especially across the south-west of England. Temperatures

:29:31.:29:35.

around seven or eight Celsius. For Wales, a lovely afternoon but

:29:36.:29:37.

thicker cloud across the west of Wales, one or two showers peppering

:29:38.:29:42.

the western fringes, some showers running through the Irish Sea. A

:29:43.:29:45.

lovely Isle of Dogs -- afternoon for the Isle of Man and Northern

:29:46.:29:50.

Ireland, temperatures of around six Celsius for Belfast. This evening

:29:51.:29:53.

temperatures fall quickly across Northern Ireland and central

:29:54.:29:56.

southern Scotland and northern England. Avail of cloud will move

:29:57.:29:59.

south. It will not be quite as cold as last night. Still the sub-zero

:30:00.:30:05.

temperatures, where we get frost through England and Wales we could

:30:06.:30:09.

seek patches of fog. Some could be dense for a while. On Saturday and

:30:10.:30:15.

area of high pressure begins to push in slowly eastwards. It gives a run

:30:16.:30:19.

of light northerly winds, some moisture in the air so it will feed

:30:20.:30:22.

in a fair amount of cloud. This is the picture for Saturday. The

:30:23.:30:26.

northern half of the country rather cloudy, spits and spots of rain for

:30:27.:30:30.

the north-west corner of Scotland but south-east Scotland, much of

:30:31.:30:33.

Wales and the Midlands and southern England, not too bad with spells of

:30:34.:30:37.

sunshine, patchy cloud coming and going and temperatures two - eight

:30:38.:30:42.

Celsius. We have two semifinal rugby League Cup matches going on at

:30:43.:30:46.

Wembley on Saturday. Good, fine conditions but quite cool for the

:30:47.:30:50.

spectators. Sunday is looking cloudier particularly for the

:30:51.:30:54.

northern half of the country. Spots of rain across the north and east.

:30:55.:30:58.

With shelter, southern Wales and south-west of England have the best

:30:59.:31:01.

with the sunshine. Temperatures in single figures. It stays on the

:31:02.:31:06.

chilly side for the weekend, rather cloudy particularly on Sunday but at

:31:07.:31:09.

least for most it should be mainly dry. A settled weekend to come.

:31:10.:31:15.

The top stories. A former chairman of the corporatist bang Paul Flowers

:31:16.:31:20.

is arrested by police investigating the supply of illegal drugs and

:31:21.:31:25.

Scotland Yard say a couple arrested in connection with allegations of

:31:26.:31:28.

domestic slavery in south London have previously been arrested in the

:31:29.:31:32.

1970s. That is all from us
