:00:07. > :00:11.Toughening up on EU migrants - the Prime Minister says he'll make it

:00:12. > :00:14.harder for them to access benefits. No jobless benefits for three months

:00:15. > :00:18.and no instant access to housing benefits. But an EU Commissioner

:00:19. > :00:24.says the UK risks being seen as the nasty country. Also this lunchtime:

:00:25. > :00:28.Nearly nine million people in the UK are struggling with serious debt

:00:29. > :00:31.according to a new report. A court hears of a culture of secrecy in

:00:32. > :00:37.Nigella Lawson and Charles Saatchi's marriage - as two of the couple's

:00:38. > :00:40.assistants go on trial over fraud. Profits are up and shares are up

:00:41. > :00:49.again at Royal Mail but ministers still insist it wasn't sold off too

:00:50. > :00:50.cheaply. And the Karaoke Prince - as William takes to the stage with

:00:51. > :00:59.Taylor Swift and Jon Bon Jovi. Later on BBC London: The number of

:01:00. > :01:02.people admitted to hospitals in Surrey for drink-related illnesses

:01:03. > :01:04.doubles in 10 years. And a new scheme offering free tutoring for

:01:05. > :01:25.the poorest pupils hopes to raise educational standards.

:01:26. > :01:31.Good afternoon and welcome to the BBC news at One. David Cameron has

:01:32. > :01:33.promised to make it harder for migrants from the European Union to

:01:34. > :01:38.get access to Britain's welfare system. The Prime Minister says the

:01:39. > :01:41.migrants won't qualify for jobless benefits until they've been here for

:01:42. > :01:44.three months, nor will they get instant access to housing benefit.

:01:45. > :01:47.But an EU commissioner has accused Mr Cameron of an unfortunate over-

:01:48. > :01:50.reaction and says the UK risks being seen as the nasty country. Here's

:01:51. > :02:01.our political correspondent, Ben Wright. For a decade, Britain's door

:02:02. > :02:06.has been open to migrants from Europe. From January, Czechs and

:02:07. > :02:10.Poles will be joined by people from Romania and Bulgaria. They come to

:02:11. > :02:16.find work. But can claim benefits too. And David Cameron wants their

:02:17. > :02:20.right to welfare restricted. It is popular politics. I think it is

:02:21. > :02:24.good. It is time that happened. You come straight into this country and

:02:25. > :02:28.you're looking for benefits rather than working, it is not fair. There

:02:29. > :02:35.have been benefit restrictions in place since 2004. But the Prime

:02:36. > :02:37.Minister wants to crackdown further. Writing in the Financial Times he

:02:38. > :02:53.said: Newly arrived job seekers would not

:02:54. > :02:59.be able to claim housing benefit. Any jobless EU national found

:03:00. > :03:03.sleeping rough or begging would be deported and banned from coming back

:03:04. > :03:07.for 12 months. David Cameron accused Labour of making a mistake in not

:03:08. > :03:13.limiting immigration from eastern Europe. With restrictions on

:03:14. > :03:20.Bulgarians and Romanians about to be lifted, the Government is attuned to

:03:21. > :03:26.the concerns of voters. You can tell there is an election, because David

:03:27. > :03:30.Cameron starts to sound more euro sceptic. The EU have said they are

:03:31. > :03:34.not happy with them. The only way to get proper border controls is to

:03:35. > :03:38.leave the EU. We want that referendum now. Labour and the

:03:39. > :03:43.Liberal Democrats back the plan, but others say the facts don't match the

:03:44. > :03:49.political posture. Benefit tourism means people come here to be able to

:03:50. > :03:53.get on to benefits. We know that EU mice grants are more -- EU migrants

:03:54. > :03:58.are more likely to be in work and contribute more in taxes than they

:03:59. > :04:02.take in spending. The restrictions won't require a change in the law

:04:03. > :04:09.here, but will provoke a clash with the European Commission. The action

:04:10. > :04:17.if it is happening in this time, it is not helpful. Because it risks

:04:18. > :04:21.presenting the UK as the kind of nasty country in the EU. And there

:04:22. > :04:26.is David Cameron's long-term aim - to limit what he calls vast

:04:27. > :04:32.migrations within Europe. A controversial step that needs

:04:33. > :04:35.support across the EU. Let's speak to our chief political

:04:36. > :04:39.correspondent, Norman Smith. The nasty country. Will David Cameron

:04:40. > :04:43.mind the UK being seen like that? I suspect David Cameron views those

:04:44. > :04:51.comments as a sort of prized political peach landing slap-bang in

:04:52. > :04:55.his hand. Why? Because if there is one thing more cracking down on

:04:56. > :04:59.benefit claimants is having fisticuffs with people in Brussels.

:05:00. > :05:04.That is why the Prime Minister's spokesman said we are going to do it

:05:05. > :05:09.any way and introduce these curbs, regardless of what the European

:05:10. > :05:14.Commission does. But despite the row, these changes are actually

:05:15. > :05:19.relatively limited. Many are not new. Many are in practice already in

:05:20. > :05:25.force. And many of them are a good less than the curbs that already

:05:26. > :05:32.exist in some other EU countries. So why the hull Aba loo? The answer is

:05:33. > :05:36.the Government wants to flag up the fact a that the government is

:05:37. > :05:40.listening to concerns on immigration and is aware of up ease about

:05:41. > :05:45.Romania and Bulgaria. So I think the Government reaction to the EU's

:05:46. > :05:53.intervention will be, thank you very much for adding to it! Thank you.

:05:54. > :05:56.Almost nine million people in the UK are struggling to cope with serious

:05:57. > :05:59.debt problems,- according to a survey by the Money Advice Service.

:06:00. > :06:02.The problem is at its worst in some of Britain's cities including Hull,

:06:03. > :06:05.Manchester and Nottingham - where more than 40% of people are having

:06:06. > :06:15.difficulties repaying loans. Here's our personal finance correspondent,

:06:16. > :06:22.Simon Gompertz. Debt has become the scourge of city like Hull where 43%

:06:23. > :06:28.of adults have more loans and credit than they can handle. Here borrowing

:06:29. > :06:32.has become a way of life and rising prices make dealing with it a

:06:33. > :06:38.nightmare. This couple are trying to chip away at credit card debt. At

:06:39. > :06:43.the moment we are coping - just. The problem will come if the gas and

:06:44. > :06:48.electric go up, which we suspect they will between 8 and 11% and the

:06:49. > :06:56.possible interest rate rises. That will tip us over the edge. Ann was

:06:57. > :07:02.laid low by a ?2,000 bank loan. You would be surprised how many there is

:07:03. > :07:07.that is struggling. And even them that go to work, people come here

:07:08. > :07:13.and they're working. Just ain't enough. Those saying they have too

:07:14. > :07:18.much debt or behind on bills total ?8.8 million across the UK. Four

:07:19. > :07:24.million have been struggle for more than a year. But only 17% are

:07:25. > :07:28.seeking advice and help. It is a fear factor. People don't know what

:07:29. > :07:34.to expect when they come to us. People do try, they think they can

:07:35. > :07:38.sort this out themselves, but debt problems soon become too big to sort

:07:39. > :07:43.out. Too often sorting it out involves going to a high cost

:07:44. > :07:49.lender. Despite signs of economic recovery, borrowing is back close to

:07:50. > :07:56.record levels. To many who are struggling, getting into debt now

:07:57. > :08:01.seems inevitable and if you can't see an escape route, you're less

:08:02. > :08:06.likely to seek the help that you need. But debts can be dealt with by

:08:07. > :08:11.changing the payments or going bankrupt. The challenge in places

:08:12. > :08:21.like Hull is to help more people take action. Shares in Royal Mail

:08:22. > :08:24.have risen again after the newly privatised company announced a half

:08:25. > :08:27.year pre-tax profit of ?233 million. It means shares have gone up by two

:08:28. > :08:30.thirds in just six weeks. But the Business Secretary, Vince Cable, has

:08:31. > :08:32.insisted again that the government didn't undervalue Royal Mail. Here's

:08:33. > :08:42.our Business Correspondent, Emma Simpson. It was the biggest state

:08:43. > :08:49.prooifisation for more than a decade. Royal Mail was vamd at 330

:08:50. > :08:55.pence a share. But when it voted on the stock exchange, the price soared

:08:56. > :09:00.and today shares are trading at more than 562 pence. So was the business

:09:01. > :09:05.sold on the cheap? Order, good morning... That is what MPs wanted

:09:06. > :09:12.to know when they quizzed ministers. The point that was being made to us

:09:13. > :09:17.was that had we sought to push the price range higher, we would have

:09:18. > :09:21.lost a significant number of the long-term investors who we wished to

:09:22. > :09:30.attract. Ministers were then asked about advice from one bank that they

:09:31. > :09:34.could have got 20% more per share. Well 20 pence was not offered to us.

:09:35. > :09:39.We considered whether we could get that extra 20 and we concluded the

:09:40. > :09:46.risks were too high. So did the taxpayer lose out? We refute that

:09:47. > :09:51.the taxpayer has lost out. The taxpayer hasn't lost anything. It is

:09:52. > :09:57.too early to make that kind of judgment as we have made clear, the

:09:58. > :10:03.value of the sale I think will be assessed in several months, a year's

:10:04. > :10:10.time when we will look back at this as successful. The questions came as

:10:11. > :10:17.Royal Mail posted its first set of results as a listed cutting. Half

:10:18. > :10:21.year profits were more than double at ?233 million. We still own a

:10:22. > :10:26.chunk of the business which remains under threat from strike action. The

:10:27. > :10:33.controversy over how much the company really is worth is set to

:10:34. > :10:38.continue. Our chief economics correspondent, Hugh Pym, is with me.

:10:39. > :10:42.Vince Cable said it was not undervalued, but many will question

:10:43. > :10:52.that. Yes looking at the first we saw there in that report, floated at

:10:53. > :11:00.?30n't be 0 -- ?3. 30. Now more than ?5.60. So it looks at face value as

:11:01. > :11:06.if not a very good deal was got for the taxpayer. B Vince Cable's

:11:07. > :11:12.defence is ?3. 30 is what advisors said you have got to go through W if

:11:13. > :11:17.they raised it and ministers did consider raising the price in the

:11:18. > :11:21.last day or so, the advice wz long-term investors, the people the

:11:22. > :11:26.government wanted, would pull out. So if the advisors said that,

:11:27. > :11:32.Ministers felt they had to press on. And they said some analysts have

:11:33. > :11:37.said the long-term value was more like ?4. And that the price would

:11:38. > :11:41.come down. Vince Cable said you have to wait a year for a proper

:11:42. > :11:48.assessment. But that is a rod to beat his back with if in a year it

:11:49. > :12:03.is above ?6. A business has been found guilty of murdering a family

:12:04. > :12:08.of four in 2004. For this man, the day of the royal wedding was a day

:12:09. > :12:13.for revenge. He travelled to Northampton armed with a knife and

:12:14. > :12:20.murdered a family of four. Here were his victim, Jeff and Helen Ding and

:12:21. > :12:25.their two daughters. To find four people from the same family

:12:26. > :12:30.massacred in their own home was horrendous in itself. But to find

:12:31. > :12:35.two of the people were young females, the daughters, I find that

:12:36. > :12:42.unforgiveable. I can't in any way get used to that as a concept. He

:12:43. > :12:49.had gone into the business with the family in the 90s and opened shops

:12:50. > :12:54.selling Chinese medicine. But their relationship turned sour and after

:12:55. > :12:59.years of legal disputes he faced financial ruin. On the day of the

:13:00. > :13:05.murders, he took a bus and headed to the Ding's family home. The

:13:06. > :13:09.prosecution said he carried out the murders with ruthless efficiency and

:13:10. > :13:15.stabbed the two adults in the kitchen and wept upstairs and --

:13:16. > :13:18.went upstairs and attacked the daughter. After while he was till

:13:19. > :13:23.snt -- still in the house, he lay down and fell asleep. The bodies of

:13:24. > :13:31.the victims were not discovered until two days later, between them

:13:32. > :13:36.they had suffered 51 stab wounds. He fled abroad and a police appeal was

:13:37. > :13:46.sent to 180 countries. He was wanted in connection with a murder

:13:47. > :13:53.inquiry... The doctor of her ball -- He ball medicine became a wanted man

:13:54. > :13:58.and was tracked down in Morocco. The ding's family travelled to hear the

:13:59. > :14:04.evidence and said the murderer has shown no remorse. He said he was

:14:05. > :14:10.suffering mental illness and was guilty of manslaughter. The jury

:14:11. > :14:22.agreed this was murder, nothing less. A judge has ruled that the

:14:23. > :14:25.trial of two personal assistants accused of defrauding Nigella Lawson

:14:26. > :14:28.and her former husband Charles Saatchi can proceed. Lawyers for the

:14:29. > :14:31.sisters had claimed they wouldn't get a fair hearing. This morning the

:14:32. > :14:34.court was told there'd been a culture of secrecy in celebrity

:14:35. > :14:37.couple's marriage. Luisa Baldini is at Isleworth Crown Court. Explain

:14:38. > :14:41.what the legal arguments were about? Well this has been a very unusual

:14:42. > :14:45.case so far in that normal think press are not allowed to report

:14:46. > :14:50.anything that goes on until the jury has been sworn in. And they aren't

:14:51. > :14:54.allowed to report on legal argument. But the judge ruled the press has

:14:55. > :14:59.been able to report details being discussed between him and the

:15:00. > :15:03.barristers, so yesterday the press was allowed to report Charles

:15:04. > :15:06.Saatchi's allegations that Nigella Lawson regularly took drugs and

:15:07. > :15:12.today we have been allowed to report that the defence, the barristers for

:15:13. > :15:15.Francesca and Elisabetta Grillo wanted the case thrown out. The

:15:16. > :15:22.defence claim the sisters couldn't get a fair trial and said that

:15:23. > :15:27.Nigella Lawson and Charles Saatchi, who would be the main prosecution

:15:28. > :15:31.witnesses, were at loggerheads and poles apart before even getting to

:15:32. > :15:35.court and the sisters would be manipulated in the process and

:15:36. > :15:39.become embroiled in a bat m between Lawson and Saatchi. The prosecution

:15:40. > :15:43.refuted that it would be an abuse of the process of court. The judge

:15:44. > :15:49.agreed with the prosecution, just the last hour and said the trial can

:15:50. > :15:53.go ahead. So at some point after the jury has been sworn, we will be

:15:54. > :15:59.seeing Nigella Lawson and Charles Saatchi giving evidence and by the

:16:00. > :16:08.way Francesca and Elisabetta Grillo, although they admit spending the

:16:09. > :16:11.money, deny fraud. Our top story this lunchtime: The Prime Minister

:16:12. > :16:13.says he's going to make it harder for immigrants to access benefits,

:16:14. > :16:16.there will be no unemployment payments for three months, and no

:16:17. > :16:19.instant access to housing benefits. And still to come: Testing times

:16:20. > :16:28.down under - Stuart Broad speaks to the BBC about the pressures of life

:16:29. > :16:33.on an Ashes tour. And people turn up to welcome

:16:34. > :16:39.soldiers back. And overcrowding in London, how even the capital's

:16:40. > :16:47.canals are filling up with houseboats.

:16:48. > :16:50.Since international forces were first deployed in Afghanistan in

:16:51. > :16:54.2001, 446 British service personnel have been killed. But many more have

:16:55. > :16:57.come home with terrible injuries. Earlier this year, the Ministry of

:16:58. > :17:00.Defence set aside more than ?6.5 million to make sure those men and

:17:01. > :17:07.women can rebuild their lives with the best prosthetic technology

:17:08. > :17:10.available. Many are treated at a rehabilitation unit at Headley Court

:17:11. > :17:21.in Surrey, from where our correspondent, John Maguire,

:17:22. > :17:24.reports. Major Bernie Broad was seriously

:17:25. > :17:27.injured in an explosion in Afghanistan four years ago. He has

:17:28. > :17:32.been fighting back ever since, and has only had these, the very latest

:17:33. > :17:39.generation of prosthetics, since Monday. It makes life more

:17:40. > :17:46.day-to-day rather than, let's think about this. It's nice to not put the

:17:47. > :17:53.wheelchair in the car. These modern lens include microprocessors, tiny

:17:54. > :17:58.computers capable of making 100 calculations per second. The

:17:59. > :18:04.products we provide now allow the patient to carry on with their

:18:05. > :18:09.everyday life in as normal way as possible considering injuries.

:18:10. > :18:13.Whether they want to walk around the shops or march across some hills,

:18:14. > :18:21.the products we are supplying can be fine tuned to allow that kind of

:18:22. > :18:24.level of use. They carry out a whole range of treatments, making the

:18:25. > :18:32.limbs and joints, even replicating tatties. Everything they do, from

:18:33. > :18:37.the design and manufacture all the way through to the physiotherapy, is

:18:38. > :18:42.tailor-made for the patient, to try to match as best as they possibly

:18:43. > :18:48.can the physical state before the service men and women were injured.

:18:49. > :18:52.Today, the Defence Secretary was here to see for themselves how ?6.5

:18:53. > :18:58.million is being spent on this technology, and to pledge London for

:18:59. > :19:02.the future. We're not stopping here, there are new technology

:19:03. > :19:06.developments going on all the time. The clinicians are constantly

:19:07. > :19:10.scanning the horizon and looking at the latest technology coming out. As

:19:11. > :19:14.and when things become available that are appropriate, we will make

:19:15. > :19:18.them available to our patients. Serious battle injuries from

:19:19. > :19:21.Palestine and Iraq are often like changing, but these limbs - the best

:19:22. > :19:31.anywhere in the world Ash are helping to put lives back together.

:19:32. > :19:34.Police are to begin formal interviews today with the three

:19:35. > :19:37.women rescued from a house in south London last week. Scotland Yard says

:19:38. > :19:47."clearly criminal offences" had been committed. Let's speak to our home

:19:48. > :19:52.affairs correspondent, June Kelly. Weeks after these women were

:19:53. > :19:55.rescued, it is only today they can begin interviewing them. We had a

:19:56. > :20:00.briefing from the senior officer heading the enquiry this morning.

:20:01. > :20:04.Scotland Yard are not confirming the names of any of those involved, but

:20:05. > :20:10.what has emerged from other sources is that the suspect in this case,

:20:11. > :20:16.Aravindan Balakrishnan and his wife Chanda, were running this Communist

:20:17. > :20:20.electives in Brixton in south London in the 1970s. What the commander did

:20:21. > :20:23.say was the two older woman in the flat, it's become clear that three

:20:24. > :20:29.decades ago they began living with them couple voluntarily, but what

:20:30. > :20:33.the police are now trying to establish is what happened in the

:20:34. > :20:39.intervening 30 years. He said the police did believe criminal offences

:20:40. > :20:43.had been committed and Scotland Yard are now trying to understand the

:20:44. > :20:50.nature of the allegations. He said we are keeping an open mind as to

:20:51. > :20:53.what this incident is. Members of the Scottish Parliament

:20:54. > :20:55.get their first chance to debate the government's plans for independence

:20:56. > :20:57.this afternoon. The White Paper was launched yesterday, with the First

:20:58. > :21:00.Minister, Alex Salmond, describing it as the "most comprehensive

:21:01. > :21:04.blueprint for an independent country ever published", while opponents

:21:05. > :21:06.said the plans were "not credible". Let's talk to our Scotland

:21:07. > :21:14.correspondent, Laura Bicker, who's at Holyrood.

:21:15. > :21:17.Details of the White Paper are already starting to filter through

:21:18. > :21:27.to the population and they were certainly on the front pages this

:21:28. > :21:31.morning. This paper went with Alex Salmond as a Marty McFly. A more

:21:32. > :21:36.sceptical line from this next one. They dubbed him as the great

:21:37. > :21:41.pretender. They have given him a Braveheart make over. The Herald and

:21:42. > :21:47.the Scotsman have gone with information pull-out so that people

:21:48. > :21:53.can take away their own decisions. Today, the debate will be led by

:21:54. > :21:56.Alex Salmond who is expected to open it by saying that decisions are best

:21:57. > :22:01.taken by those who live and work here. But already within the last

:22:02. > :22:05.year the Better Together campaign led by Alistair Darling has held a

:22:06. > :22:10.press conference around the corner saying that the sums don't add up

:22:11. > :22:16.all stop but the real key will be how many people actually debate

:22:17. > :22:25.their White Paper, and how many are persuaded by its arguments.

:22:26. > :22:27.The Prime Minister of Latvia has resigned over the collapse of a

:22:28. > :22:30.supermarket roof which killed more than 50 people. Valdis Dombrovskis

:22:31. > :22:32.said he had to take political responsibility for what had happened

:22:33. > :22:39.after coming under increasing criticism after the disaster.

:22:40. > :22:41.The England bowler Stuart Broad has called Jonathan Trott's departure

:22:42. > :22:43.from the Ashes team as "heartbreaking". He said the

:22:44. > :22:46.gruelling schedule of an overseas tour may have exacerbated what's

:22:47. > :22:48.been called a "long-standing stress-related condition". The

:22:49. > :22:51.England team is preparing for a friendly match in Alice Springs,

:22:52. > :23:01.from where our sports correspondent, Joe Wilson, reports.

:23:02. > :23:04.Sunset at Ayers Rock. England have always said they want their players

:23:05. > :23:10.to enjoy the experience of being on tour. And so, before they play a

:23:11. > :23:14.match in Alice Springs, they do what tourists do in this part of

:23:15. > :23:17.Australia. Except of course that one of their number has already flown

:23:18. > :23:24.home. Somewhere in the midst of the joviality, his absences felt keenly.

:23:25. > :23:28.He's got support, everybody is looking after him. He's got privacy

:23:29. > :23:34.at home to set himself right. It is obvious we all wish him very well

:23:35. > :23:38.from Australia. It gives you that perspective that there are bigger

:23:39. > :23:42.things going on than cricket. Alice Springs is certainly off the beaten

:23:43. > :23:47.track on an Australian tour. It will be one of the hottest places England

:23:48. > :23:55.have ever laid a practice match. As preparations continue for this rare

:23:56. > :23:58.international Gregor opportunity, the world cricketing body is

:23:59. > :24:03.preparing for the second test match. The IPCC will give stern warnings

:24:04. > :24:10.about standards of players behaviour. On the field, I don't

:24:11. > :24:15.think airline has been crossed. It's been tough, but we grow up and we

:24:16. > :24:20.train ourselves to expect that. Off the field, there have been some

:24:21. > :24:25.mistakes made, and as an England side we can pride ourselves on how

:24:26. > :24:31.we don't comment on the opposition. Remember, England were humbled in

:24:32. > :24:36.the first test. They have recovered from this kind of thing in the past.

:24:37. > :24:43.But some comebacks are easier to stage for the cameras than others.

:24:44. > :24:46.Meet Misty. 17 metres long and around 150 million years old - an

:24:47. > :24:51.almost complete diplodocus fossil. It was found in a quarry in Wyoming

:24:52. > :24:55.in America. And now it's up for auction here in the UK, with a price

:24:56. > :24:58.tag as large as its skeleton. The fossil is expected to fetch up to

:24:59. > :25:01.?600,000. Let's speak to our correspondent, Duncan Kennedy, who's

:25:02. > :25:12.at the auction in Billingshurst in West Sussex.

:25:13. > :25:17.Sophie, isn't she stunning's and it is a chic, they've done the tests

:25:18. > :25:25.and found it is a female dinosaur, it diplodocus by the name of Misty.

:25:26. > :25:29.Thought to be one of the largest intact dinosaurs in existence. She's

:25:30. > :25:36.been brought to Sussex today for what promises to be an epic auction.

:25:37. > :25:42.Proof that age and beauty do mix. 150 million years old and not a drop

:25:43. > :25:49.of Botox insight. Just the elegant women in lines of a diplodocus who

:25:50. > :25:53.has been named Misty. She is thought to be the first almost complete

:25:54. > :25:56.large dinosaur skeleton ever to be auctioned in Britain. But who would

:25:57. > :26:03.want to become a mega bone collector? I understand various

:26:04. > :26:06.celebrities like bad pit and Leonardo DiCaprio are supposed to be

:26:07. > :26:14.very interested in acquiring dinosaurs. I don't know if that is

:26:15. > :26:18.true or not. -- like Brad Pitt. Maybe a wealthy individual might

:26:19. > :26:23.like it in their barn garage. We just don't really know. This is what

:26:24. > :26:29.she would have looked like roaming during the late Jurassic period, a

:26:30. > :26:35.great big docile plant eater. Misty was unearthed in the American state

:26:36. > :26:39.of Wyoming, a jigsaw of bones of the heaviest dinosaur that ever lived.

:26:40. > :26:44.Just like this plaster version in London, where experts hope Misty

:26:45. > :26:51.will find a good home. We are so much more to learn about diplodocus,

:26:52. > :26:54.and we hope that she will end up in a museum or made available for

:26:55. > :27:00.studies at some point in the future. It is really an exciting new

:27:01. > :27:06.discovery. At 19 feet tall and 65 feet long, she has an epic presence.

:27:07. > :27:16.This most than in fossils for collectors a dinosaur to die for.

:27:17. > :27:19.There is a lot of interest in other creatures as well. Misty is the

:27:20. > :27:23.star of the show, with this expected from all around the world. The

:27:24. > :27:34.bidding gets underway for murder at 3:30pm and is expected to fetch half

:27:35. > :27:37.?1 million. -- underway for her. Prince William managed to surprise

:27:38. > :27:40.the audience at a charity gala in Kensington Palace last night - not

:27:41. > :27:44.to mention the rest of the world. He took to the stage at the end of the

:27:45. > :27:53.evening with Jon Bon Jovi and Taylor Swift for an impromptu sing-a-long.

:27:54. > :28:01.Sarah Campbell reports. # Oh, livin' on a prayer.

:28:02. > :28:06.Even the second in line to the throne couldn't resist joining in on

:28:07. > :28:09.this 80s classic. His enthusiastic performance rounded off a

:28:10. > :28:14.star-studded event on the half of the homeless charity centrepoint

:28:15. > :28:20.held in Kensington Palace. It is a charity the Duke has long supported.

:28:21. > :28:23.I gave up the comfort of my bed and tried sleeping on the streets of

:28:24. > :28:28.London. That was one night and I knew I had a home waiting for me.

:28:29. > :28:34.Many others have no such comfort. The cold streets are the only

:28:35. > :28:37.reality they know. Prior to providing backing vocals, he spent

:28:38. > :28:44.time eating young people, charity workers and performers. When you see

:28:45. > :28:47.someone from afar and you admire the way they carry themselves and then

:28:48. > :28:54.you meet them and they are funny, that is very cool and exciting. The

:28:55. > :28:59.jury is out on his singing talents, but as a way to generate publicity

:29:00. > :29:15.for a cause he supports, his was pitch perfect.

:29:16. > :29:21.Time now for a look at the weather. It is Thanksgiving in the US

:29:22. > :29:27.tomorrow, a big holiday, but we've got quite a storm ringing a real mix

:29:28. > :29:31.of heavy rain, snow, strong winds and really unpleasant travel

:29:32. > :29:36.conditions here. A bit quieter on our shores. There are two weather

:29:37. > :29:40.fronts at the top and tail of the country bringing a fair bit of cloud

:29:41. > :29:43.and a bit of rain, but between those systems there is a lot of dry

:29:44. > :29:52.weather. There is some sunshine as well. The best of that is in eastern

:29:53. > :29:56.England. There is some rain to be found. Rather dull and gloomy in

:29:57. > :30:01.southern counties, particularly the south-east. A bit of light rain and

:30:02. > :30:06.drizzle. Temperature is a little higher than mayhap than of late. A

:30:07. > :30:11.bit of bright weather coming through in the south-west of England and the

:30:12. > :30:15.South of Wales. Cloudy in the north-west of England. The eastern

:30:16. > :30:19.part of Scotland and Northern Ireland does well. But there are

:30:20. > :30:27.some rain in drizzle to content with in western Scotland. The rain slips

:30:28. > :30:32.out overnight, there will be patchy rain in Northern Ireland and

:30:33. > :30:36.northern England. Behind that in Scotland temperatures will drop and

:30:37. > :30:39.we will see a touch of frost. A bit of frost in eastern England but

:30:40. > :30:44.temperatures will cover by the end of the night as big a cloud rolls

:30:45. > :30:48.on. A slow start to Thursday with bits of fog around. Into the

:30:49. > :30:52.afternoon, some brighter weather across the East of Scotland, the

:30:53. > :30:59.north-east of England doing quite well. Elsewhere, quite a bit of

:31:00. > :31:03.cloud. A chilly day in the West of Scotland, but further south getting

:31:04. > :31:06.up to 10 degrees. Change is on the way by the end of the week axed in

:31:07. > :31:12.this weather system moving across the north of the UK. The cold front

:31:13. > :31:16.introduces the change and the winds will be picking up. It will be more

:31:17. > :31:20.of a north-westerly wind on Friday which is going to push the remnants

:31:21. > :31:24.of any relatively mild air out of the way. So it will be that bit

:31:25. > :31:29.cooler by Friday and it will feel so, particularly in the wind. There

:31:30. > :31:34.will be some good bright spells though, a scattering of showers,

:31:35. > :31:38.mostly in the north and west. The winds are really quite strong,

:31:39. > :31:43.blowing a gale around the coast. So make the most of the next day

:31:44. > :31:46.because by Friday that cold wind arrives. At least we can for most of

:31:47. > :31:49.us most of the time will be dry. A reminder of our top story this

:31:50. > :31:53.lunchtime: The Prime Minister has said he's going to make it harder

:31:54. > :31:55.for immigrants to access benefits: there will be no unemployment

:31:56. > :32:00.payments for three months, and no instant access to housing benefits.

:32:01. > :32:01.That's all from us - now on BBC One it's time
