:01:08. > :01:12.Good afternoon. South Korea's President has strongly criticised

:01:13. > :01:15.the captain of the ferry that sank and some of his crew, saying their

:01:16. > :01:19.actions in abandoning ship were tantamount to murder. Park

:01:20. > :01:22.Geun-hye's comments came as four more crew members were arrested

:01:23. > :01:24.following yesterday's release of the last audio conversations with the

:01:25. > :01:31.coastguard before the ferry listed and sank. Divers have now removed 64

:01:32. > :01:38.bodies from the vessel but 240 people, mainly teenagers, are still

:01:39. > :01:47.missing. Martin Patience has been to the site of the wreck off Jindo

:01:48. > :01:54.Island. Beneath the surface lies at the scene of this national disaster.

:01:55. > :01:58.The Amado boat shows the scale of the recovery operation. They are

:01:59. > :02:06.still battling strong currents but as conditions improve, the operation

:02:07. > :02:20.is likely to speed up. The two buoys there and that marks the exact spot

:02:21. > :02:23.where the ferry sank. Teams of divers and small lifeboats, they are

:02:24. > :02:26.going down into the murky waters to try and recover the bodies from the

:02:27. > :02:29.sunken ferry. Staff say the captain presented himself as an ordinary

:02:30. > :02:36.survivor. As the man responsible for the safety of the ship, he appears

:02:37. > :02:39.to have abandoned his duties. South Korea's president, has now accused

:02:40. > :02:45.the captain and some of his crew of murder.

:02:46. > :02:48.TRANSLATION: The conduct of the captain and some crew members it

:02:49. > :02:52.unfathomable from the viewpoint of common sense. It was like an act of

:02:53. > :02:57.murder that cannot and should not be tolerated. Right after the

:02:58. > :03:00.accident, the captain did not immediately follow the evacuation

:03:01. > :03:06.orders. While tying the passengers to stay where they were, they left

:03:07. > :03:11.the passengers and escaped first. This is legally and ethically

:03:12. > :03:16.something that is unimaginable. Back at the port, parents know strong

:03:17. > :03:24.words won't bring back their children.

:03:25. > :03:31.TRANSLATION: I feel like she is gone but I should be the one who has

:03:32. > :03:34.gone. This is a 100% man-made disaster. If the government acted

:03:35. > :03:38.quicker, all of the children would have been saved. Details about the

:03:39. > :03:45.victim are being posted on this board as they identification process

:03:46. > :03:51.continues. The parents now want their children's bodies back to

:03:52. > :03:53.start their funerals. Russia has accused the Ukrainian government of

:03:54. > :03:57.breaking the terms of an agreement forged in Geneva last week, aimed at

:03:58. > :04:00.resolving the crisis in Ukraine. Sergei Lavrov said authorities had

:04:01. > :04:05.failed to disarm illegal groups despite agreeing to do so. His

:04:06. > :04:09.comments follow a shoot out at a checkpoint over the weekend near the

:04:10. > :04:12.eastern town of Sloviansk. Russia blamed Ukrainian nationalists for

:04:13. > :04:17.the incident in which three people were reportedly killed. Our

:04:18. > :04:25.Correspondent Tom Esslemont is in Moscow. Tom, what's Mr Lavrov been

:04:26. > :04:29.saying this morning? Strong words from the Sergei Lavrov. He has

:04:30. > :04:33.basically accused the Kiev authorities are failing to keep

:04:34. > :04:38.their side of the bargain. In those Geneva talks last Thursday. He has

:04:39. > :04:50.blamed them for failing to rein in groups, radical groups, in the

:04:51. > :04:54.Ukraine, groups like the Right Sector, the Moscow blames for the

:04:55. > :04:57.shoot out yesterday morning in the town of Sloviansk. That attack has

:04:58. > :05:01.undermined what slim prospect there was the Geneva agreement actually

:05:02. > :05:06.turning into anything concrete on the ground. And, more than that,

:05:07. > :05:11.there is a fundamental disagreement in this crisis about who is to blame

:05:12. > :05:16.and which groups should actually pull back in order for the agreement

:05:17. > :05:22.to work out. Moscow says it's the radicals in Kiev, whereas the West

:05:23. > :05:25.and Kiev says it's the masked men in the east, so there is absolute

:05:26. > :05:29.deadlock as this crisis continues. Thanks, Tom. A new register making

:05:30. > :05:32.it clearer who owns and controls companies in the UK will be set up

:05:33. > :05:35.by the Government to help fight fraud, tax evasion and money

:05:36. > :05:37.laundering. The Business Secretary, Vince Cable, says the register,

:05:38. > :05:40.which will be available to the public, aims to target the darker

:05:41. > :05:49.side of capitalism. Our Business Correspondent Joe Lynam has the

:05:50. > :05:51.details. By publishing a register of exactly who the main person is

:05:52. > :05:57.controlling any company registered in the UK it is hoped to remove the

:05:58. > :06:01.Vale of what Vince Cable calls the darker side of capitalism. The 3

:06:02. > :06:06.million companies in this country, it will be possible to establish who

:06:07. > :06:09.has the controlling interest, who pulls the strings, and we're doing

:06:10. > :06:13.this because although the vast majority of businesses in the UK are

:06:14. > :06:17.completely straight and indeed a very productive, we do get people

:06:18. > :06:22.who are trying to hide, who are engaged in tax evasion, in

:06:23. > :06:26.money-laundering. Financing terrorism. Under the planned new

:06:27. > :06:30.rules, UK bettered companies must publish the name of anyone who has

:06:31. > :06:33.at least a quarter of a company shares or voting rights when

:06:34. > :06:37.releasing company results. If they fail to do so, could be made into a

:06:38. > :06:42.criminal matter and the government wants to also scrap so-called their

:06:43. > :06:46.shares, whoever physically owns them owns the company without needing to

:06:47. > :06:54.register anywhere. But this new thing would apply to trusts who can

:06:55. > :06:58.remain opaque for now. We need complete transparency. We should not

:06:59. > :07:02.allow corporations to be directors of other corporations. Only human

:07:03. > :07:06.beings should be allowed to be directors, only they can be called

:07:07. > :07:10.to account and punished and sent to prison. Whatever the retribution may

:07:11. > :07:16.be. And we should demand complete transparency about all shared

:07:17. > :07:19.ownership. The other concern is these new plans haven't yet got the

:07:20. > :07:22.blessing of Britain's Crown dependencies and overseas

:07:23. > :07:27.dependencies. The Bahamas, Cayman Islands and Channel Islands are

:07:28. > :07:30.consulting the companies that bank there. This matter has cross-party

:07:31. > :07:36.support which will be needed to make it to the statute books but whether

:07:37. > :07:39.that light can now be shone on UK companies before the general

:07:40. > :07:42.election is as OPEC as many of Britain's secretive companies. One

:07:43. > :07:45.of Britain's biggest teaching unions, the NUT, has voted for a day

:07:46. > :07:49.of strike action in its ongoing dispute with Government over pay,

:07:50. > :07:51.pensions and working conditions. Let's speak to our Education

:07:52. > :07:56.Correspondent Reeta Chakrabarti who's at the union's annual

:07:57. > :07:59.conference in Brighton. Reeta, so they've voted for a one-day strike

:08:00. > :08:08.in June. Does that mean it will go ahead? The strikes aren't

:08:09. > :08:11.inevitable. It depends on what happens in talks but you have to say

:08:12. > :08:15.they are looking likely given that this is an ongoing dispute and there

:08:16. > :08:19.has been very little progress so far. It's also the case that any

:08:20. > :08:23.strike which happens could be longer than one day and there's talk of

:08:24. > :08:28.potentially further strikes in the autumn term and beyond. This weekend

:08:29. > :08:33.we've heard a lot of very fiery rhetoric about the Education

:08:34. > :08:37.Secretary Michael Gove who has been compared to a Dalek, a sick joke, so

:08:38. > :08:43.strong words and we have heard the regular chance of going must go. He

:08:44. > :08:49.appears in movable. It does not imply statement today sticking to

:08:50. > :08:52.its guns on policy and saying any further strikes would only distract

:08:53. > :08:56.children and damage the reputation of the profession. Thank you. David

:08:57. > :08:58.Cameron's comments about Christianity and Britain's status as

:08:59. > :09:03.a Christian country have come under attack from a group of more than 50

:09:04. > :09:05.prominent figures. In a letter to the Daily Telegraph, organised by

:09:06. > :09:10.the British Humanist Association, they accuse the Prime Minister of

:09:11. > :09:12.fostering division in society. I should warn you this report from our

:09:13. > :09:20.Religious Affairs correspondent Robert Pigott contains some flash

:09:21. > :09:25.photography. As Christians celebrated Easter, the

:09:26. > :09:29.most important moment in the church's calendar, David Cameron

:09:30. > :09:32.spoke several times about his own Christian faith. He said

:09:33. > :09:35.Christianity really mattered to him and said Easter was a time to

:09:36. > :09:39.reflect on the countless acts of kindness carried out by those who

:09:40. > :09:43.followed Christ. He said he found moments of peace in his own church

:09:44. > :09:46.in Kensington and said Britain should be confident of its status as

:09:47. > :09:52.a Christian country. But the letter from 50 leading secularists claimed

:09:53. > :10:07.characterising Britain as Christians harmful to society.

:10:08. > :10:13.The idea we were together for the common good, that is not an

:10:14. > :10:17.exclusively Christian idea but shared by all faiths, and of course

:10:18. > :10:21.by people of no faith and in particular by socialists and people

:10:22. > :10:25.have always argued for a society where people work for each other to

:10:26. > :10:28.help each other, to strengthen their communities. Some have seen David

:10:29. > :10:30.Cameron's repeated endorsements of Christianity as being aimed at a

:10:31. > :10:33.Conservative heartland bruised by his support for same-sex marriage.

:10:34. > :10:36.But Downing Street insists that David Cameron has seven many

:10:37. > :10:39.different occasions that Britain is strengthened by being at home to

:10:40. > :10:50.many different faiths but shouldn't be afraid to identify as a Christian

:10:51. > :10:54.country. In a speech to commemorate the 400th anniversary of the King

:10:55. > :10:57.James Bible, Mr Cameron said the Bible had given Britain a set of

:10:58. > :11:02.morals and values that have made the country what it is today.

:11:03. > :11:07.Historically and culturally written has been Christians are many

:11:08. > :11:10.hundreds of years. And I'm glad he is confident and I think it's

:11:11. > :11:16.absolutely right that he can express his confident and the faith he

:11:17. > :11:21.howls. Although the most recent census show us sharp fall in the

:11:22. > :11:25.number of Christians in Britain, 59% identify with the religion. But

:11:26. > :11:28.today's letter is further confirmation that far from taking

:11:29. > :11:32.Christian teaching for granted, many see it as actively harmful. The

:11:33. > :11:37.funeral of Peaches Geldof has taken place this afternoon in Kent. Sir

:11:38. > :11:40.Bob Geldof led the tributes to his daughter at a private service.

:11:41. > :11:43.Mourners gathered at the same church where the funeral of her mother

:11:44. > :11:48.Paula Yates was also held to remember the 25-year-old, who died

:11:49. > :11:59.earlier this month. The cause of her death remains unexplained. The

:12:00. > :12:02.Boston marathon is due to begin shortly amid the tightest security

:12:03. > :12:04.the race has ever seen. During last year's marathon, three people were

:12:05. > :12:07.killed and hundreds of others injured in bomb explosions. Our

:12:08. > :12:14.Correspondent Laura Trevelyan is there. Laura. After the murder and

:12:15. > :12:18.mayhem at the finish line last year, security is very tight and are

:12:19. > :12:24.also an enormous number of people running. 36,000 people are running,

:12:25. > :12:27.9000 more than last year. The organisers want to give the 5000

:12:28. > :12:32.people who couldn't finish the race because of the bombings last year a

:12:33. > :12:37.chance to take part so it's a very emotional day. There are police

:12:38. > :12:41.everywhere. 3500 officers along the route but that doesn't include

:12:42. > :12:46.undercover officers. Members of the National Guard, cameras everywhere.

:12:47. > :12:51.At the finish line, alone, there are 50 different observation points so

:12:52. > :12:54.the police are trying to make this a family friendly affair as it's

:12:55. > :12:57.always been in Boston but they are trying to strike a balance between

:12:58. > :13:04.tight security and not turning the race into a run through of a

:13:05. > :13:10.militarised zone and the mood is one of resilience and remembrance. Today

:13:11. > :13:11.is the Queen's birthday. She's 88 and will be spending the day at

:13:12. > :13:23.Windsor Castle. There were gun salutes to mark the

:13:24. > :13:29.occasion including at the Tower of London. And in Green Park in central

:13:30. > :13:31.London by the Royal Horse Artillery and there were separate

:13:32. > :13:39.commemorations in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. 50 years ago,

:13:40. > :13:43.BBC Two was born. But its launch was a unmitigated disaster. A massive

:13:44. > :13:47.power cut wiped out much of the schedule and many of the programmes

:13:48. > :13:48.had to be run the following day. It's gone on to be the home of some

:13:49. > :14:03.of the most influential programmes. Good evening. This is BBC Two. This

:14:04. > :14:12.is how it all started 50 years ago. Sort of. Because this was, in

:14:13. > :14:15.reality, day two of BBC Two. The problem was, on the real launch

:14:16. > :14:19.night, a power cut meant the only thing anyone saw was this.

:14:20. > :14:26.PHONE RINGS. Excuse me. Hello. Unlike Channel

:14:27. > :14:29.one, there's nobody there. Like the bewildered Gerald Priestland reading

:14:30. > :14:33.the news and then nothing, not even the channel's mascot, a live

:14:34. > :14:38.kangaroo. He was stuck in a lift. Here is a house. Here is a door. The

:14:39. > :14:43.first programme arrived without fanfare the next day. Play School.

:14:44. > :14:51.Hello. I'm Virginia. Hello, I'm Gordon. From the beginning, BBC Two

:14:52. > :14:54.was considered the serious channel. It was also the something completely

:14:55. > :14:58.different channel. The opening night line-up promised this.

:14:59. > :15:03.ANNOUNCER: At 9.35, Russia's top comedian. And at 10.20, Off With A

:15:04. > :15:07.Bang. It was quirky, not too bothered if things overran and it

:15:08. > :15:11.would try anything. ANNOUNCER: In Conversations For

:15:12. > :15:15.Tomorrow, JB Priestley entertains... From philosophy to snooker. From

:15:16. > :15:21.David Attenborough and Jacob Panofsky. Whispering Bob and Jeremy

:15:22. > :15:37.Clarkson. Was that really his hair? It was the beginning of all this.

:15:38. > :15:46.The line-up this evening. Pamela Donald promises viewers... The

:15:47. > :15:50.agenda that first day 50 years ago, they were just glad something had

:15:51. > :15:52.gone out. Well, that's all from us tonight. We've certainly had

:15:53. > :15:54.ourselves a ball here. Can we come again tomorrow night round about

:15:55. > :15:58.7.20?
