Good afternoon and welcome to the BBC News at One. | :01:25. | :01:26. | |
In Iraq the government insists it is in full control of the country's | :01:27. | :01:29. | |
the country's biggest oil refinery, despite reports that ISIS - the | :01:30. | :01:34. | |
Islamist militant group had hung their black flags at the complex. | :01:35. | :01:37. | |
Meanwhile the United States is urging politicians in Iraq to | :01:38. | :01:40. | |
militants. President Obama is still considering a possible US response | :01:41. | :01:43. | |
to the ongoing crisis, after being asked to mount air strikes by the | :01:44. | :01:47. | |
Iraqi government. Nick Childs has the latest. | :01:48. | :01:59. | |
It is the worst crisis in Iraq has felt since Allied troops have left. | :02:00. | :02:07. | |
But these volunteers are queueing, eager to take on the Sunni | :02:08. | :02:14. | |
insurgents. Despite the enthusiasm, the Iraqi government has turned to | :02:15. | :02:18. | |
the Americans again, calling for direct strikes and other military | :02:19. | :02:27. | |
support. TRANSLATION: to help in directing air strikes and to help to | :02:28. | :02:33. | |
break the morale and help security forces in pushing away the danger of | :02:34. | :02:35. | |
these groups and to start defeating them. | :02:36. | :02:40. | |
In Washington, President Obama has been consulting congressional | :02:41. | :02:46. | |
leaders. He reportedly told them he does not need their approval for | :02:47. | :02:51. | |
action, that seems very relax and to take the significant step of | :02:52. | :02:56. | |
launching US strikes. Plenty of activity on the flight deck of this | :02:57. | :03:01. | |
aircraft carrier in the Gulf. But US commanders are said to be uncertain | :03:02. | :03:05. | |
about what their targets with the and Washington's main message to bag | :03:06. | :03:09. | |
that is the main solution is critical and the various sectarian | :03:10. | :03:14. | |
leaders must unite. We have done everything we could to help them. It | :03:15. | :03:23. | |
is up to the Iraqis. They wanted to manage and govern their own country. | :03:24. | :03:28. | |
I don't think we should assign the blame to the United States for this. | :03:29. | :03:32. | |
The pressure of people continuing to flee the latest violence has added | :03:33. | :03:38. | |
to international alarm. There is still a war of words from the | :03:39. | :03:43. | |
government and insurgents on who controls the oil refinery in the | :03:44. | :03:45. | |
North. The focus of all of the clashes. In Basra, in the far | :03:46. | :03:52. | |
south, more volunteers to take on the militants. But just how this | :03:53. | :03:56. | |
crisis unfolds now and what it impact will be inside Iraq and | :03:57. | :03:59. | |
beyond, are still far from clear. Yalda Hakim joins me now from just | :04:00. | :04:03. | |
outside Irbil in Northern Iraq. What is the situation on the ground | :04:04. | :04:17. | |
from where you are I am on the outskirts in Kurdistan. I don't know | :04:18. | :04:22. | |
if you can see the traffic. That is the road that leads to Mosul and | :04:23. | :04:26. | |
that is where ISIS and the insurgents are. There are people | :04:27. | :04:29. | |
heading back into Mosul and people coming here looking for a safe haven | :04:30. | :04:36. | |
trying to get away from the fighting. People are worried about | :04:37. | :04:39. | |
any potential US military intervention. They had had memories | :04:40. | :04:46. | |
of the invasion of their country. For the United States, if they do | :04:47. | :04:50. | |
take the military option, how will they go about it? Will it lead to a | :04:51. | :04:56. | |
political solution? Right now they are distancing themselves from the | :04:57. | :05:01. | |
president, they see him as the problem and rather than the | :05:02. | :05:02. | |
solution. Joining me now from Washington is | :05:03. | :05:05. | |
our correspondent David Willis. All eyes on President Obama, what is | :05:06. | :05:21. | |
he likely to do? He met with senior members of Congress last night. He | :05:22. | :05:26. | |
is considering drone strikes or air attacks. The White House has | :05:27. | :05:29. | |
stressed there needs to be a political solution to the problems | :05:30. | :05:33. | |
in Iraq. There are reports this morning that some Arab allies are | :05:34. | :05:38. | |
urging the White House to distance itself from the Prime Minister Nouri | :05:39. | :05:44. | |
Al-Maliki. The Obama Administration has been critical of that | :05:45. | :05:50. | |
administration in the past, but it is up to the Iraqi people to | :05:51. | :05:52. | |
determine the Constitution of the new government. Clearly, the US does | :05:53. | :05:59. | |
not want to be seen to be orchestrating any regime to range in | :06:00. | :06:04. | |
Iraq. But military action, if it is taking is at a price, not least the | :06:05. | :06:12. | |
accusations the US is interfering in a sectarian conflict. If there is to | :06:13. | :06:16. | |
be any military action, I don't think it will come any time soon. | :06:17. | :06:20. | |
Labour say they would withdraw Jobseeker's Allowance from young | :06:21. | :06:23. | |
people aged between 18 and 21 unless they've completed training or | :06:24. | :06:25. | |
Ed Miliband says it's about giving young people skills | :06:26. | :06:32. | |
and opportunity, but the Chancellor says it will put up welfare bills. | :06:33. | :06:36. | |
Our Political Correspondent Ross Hawkins reports. | :06:37. | :06:43. | |
The man dubbed red Ed by his opponents, explained how he would | :06:44. | :06:49. | |
cut unemployment and if it's for Young people. We can address these | :06:50. | :06:55. | |
issues and reform welfare in a way that is progressive and not | :06:56. | :06:59. | |
punitive. A Labour government would get Young people to sign up for | :07:00. | :07:03. | |
training and not sign on for benefits. Under his plans, no | :07:04. | :07:10. | |
qualifications, would mean no job-seeker's allowance for 18 to | :07:11. | :07:14. | |
21-year-olds, unless they were disabled and had small children. I | :07:15. | :07:19. | |
would not get the benefit until they had an A-level or an equally tough | :07:20. | :07:25. | |
qualification. There would be a new allowance for | :07:26. | :07:25. | |
would not get the benefit until they had an A-level or an equally people | :07:26. | :07:27. | |
to get that while they were training, but only if their parents | :07:28. | :07:33. | |
were low earners. People doing practical skills like this would get | :07:34. | :07:38. | |
the same support they would. Will it work? This was the verdict outside | :07:39. | :07:49. | |
Sheffield Jobcentre. I don't think Young people who want to work, | :07:50. | :07:56. | |
manipulating them people by making them go out and do training. Do you | :07:57. | :07:58. | |
think you would benefit from more training? Not really, what more can | :07:59. | :08:02. | |
I do? Send me background in a circle. There would be a bit more | :08:03. | :08:09. | |
money for those who have worked for at least five years before losing a | :08:10. | :08:13. | |
job. The Tories will not be impressed. They will put welfare | :08:14. | :08:28. | |
bills up and increased benefits for many adults and that is the wrong | :08:29. | :08:30. | |
direction to be taking our country in. This is a battle the Labour | :08:31. | :08:32. | |
leader has two win. His personal readings make grim reading. What he | :08:33. | :08:37. | |
is trying to do is approach politics in a different way from the way in | :08:38. | :08:40. | |
which Tony Blair and new Labour approached it. Is it working? It may | :08:41. | :08:49. | |
work. The party knows plenty of people in its audiences in | :08:50. | :08:51. | |
Westminster and beyond, still need convincing. | :08:52. | :08:55. | |
Our Chief Political Correspondent, Norman Smith, is in East London now. | :08:56. | :09:01. | |
How important is this policy for Ed Miliband? This was a big moment for | :09:02. | :09:09. | |
Ed Miliband. Politically but also in terms of how his party is seen and | :09:10. | :09:16. | |
also in terms of his standing. But he said we cannot be continuity | :09:17. | :09:20. | |
Labour and they have to come forward with big ideas. This is hacked idea | :09:21. | :09:28. | |
on welfare. No skills, no benefit. Voters will see Labour as | :09:29. | :09:33. | |
tough-minded on welfare, not a soft touch when it comes to benefits. In | :09:34. | :09:39. | |
terms of his personal standing he suffered dire poll ratings. He was | :09:40. | :09:44. | |
hit with faint praise by Peter Mandelson. Mr Miliband was asked | :09:45. | :09:51. | |
about that today and his response was to say, give me a break. I am | :09:52. | :09:58. | |
trying to defy the odds by winning an election after just one term in | :09:59. | :10:04. | |
opposition. He sounded to me rather bruised and like a leader under | :10:05. | :10:06. | |
pressure. David Cameron is expected to call | :10:07. | :10:10. | |
for a "big, bold, global push" to speed up research on dementia | :10:11. | :10:13. | |
at an international summit which is But experts say a target set | :10:14. | :10:17. | |
by the G8 to find a cure by 2025 is unlikely to succeed | :10:18. | :10:24. | |
unless there is more investment. Joining me now | :10:25. | :10:26. | |
from the conference is the man appointed as the World Dementia | :10:27. | :10:28. | |
Envoy, Doctor Dennis Gillings. Thank you to joining us. You have | :10:29. | :10:42. | |
said you think progress on this is slow. What can be done to speed it | :10:43. | :10:50. | |
up? I think we need to have an enormous push. The risk, reward | :10:51. | :10:55. | |
ratio to the pharmaceutical industry is not good. High risks, little | :10:56. | :11:01. | |
rewards. We need to increase the rewards I temporarily extending the | :11:02. | :11:06. | |
pattern life of products that get approved when they are innovative in | :11:07. | :11:09. | |
dementia. We need to give more benefit of the doubt to programmes | :11:10. | :11:17. | |
of dementia that have not fully proven efficacy. As long as they are | :11:18. | :11:22. | |
safe and high, I think we need to give more benefit of the doubt until | :11:23. | :11:27. | |
we get to the stage where we have more treatment is available to | :11:28. | :11:34. | |
patients. Given progress has been so slow, is this target of a cure by | :11:35. | :11:41. | |
2025 realistic? I believe it is, as long as neuroscience improves. We do | :11:42. | :11:46. | |
have to continue to invest and expand neuroscience. In-depth | :11:47. | :11:53. | |
information about the brain. Just a few weeks ago I saw neurons being | :11:54. | :11:59. | |
made from stem cells in University College London, looked through a | :12:00. | :12:02. | |
powerful microscope to see them firing like a miniature firework | :12:03. | :12:09. | |
display. That is powerful we can create that. I believe we can make | :12:10. | :12:11. | |
progress and follow on from that progress. What is the scale of the | :12:12. | :12:19. | |
problem as it stands, because it is a growing one, isn't it? It is | :12:20. | :12:28. | |
growing, it costs 1% of the gross global domestic product, which is a | :12:29. | :12:33. | |
huge amounts of money. That is destined to double over the next 15 | :12:34. | :12:39. | |
to 20 years. It is an enormous burden, not only financially but on | :12:40. | :12:43. | |
families, individuals. It is a lot of suffering and devastation. I can | :12:44. | :12:49. | |
say that after seeing my own mother in that situation. Thank you very | :12:50. | :12:54. | |
much indeed. A BBC investigation has found that | :12:55. | :12:59. | |
thousands of paedophiles are now The anonymous network makes it easy | :13:00. | :13:03. | |

mobile phone. Police are using sophisticated techniques to catch | :13:28. | :13:31. | |
paedophiles who share images. There is increasing evidence that some | :13:32. | :13:35. | |
paedophiles are moving activities to the so-called dark net, where | :13:36. | :13:42. | |
specialist software and encryption technology makes them anonymous and | :13:43. | :13:44. | |
almost untraceable. specialist software and encryption | :13:45. | :13:49. | |
technology makes them Front line officers say the use of these hidden | :13:50. | :13:51. | |
websites is making their job more difficult. The more sophisticated | :13:52. | :13:58. | |
users are switching to the dark net. We will see encryption, we will see | :13:59. | :14:02. | |
passwords and we will see anon I eyes Asian, proxies to hide their IP | :14:03. | :14:08. | |
addresses and it will become more difficult to find these people. It | :14:09. | :14:15. | |
is ironic, the Dark Net was first created by the US military to | :14:16. | :14:20. | |
protect national security and is now being used by criminals. But for the | :14:21. | :14:26. | |
authorities, policing it is a complex task. It is a challenge. To | :14:27. | :14:35. | |
describe law enforcement techniques in this area, but it is a challenge | :14:36. | :14:42. | |
and it is something we are closely keeping our eye on. Special software | :14:43. | :14:49. | |
means computers are not traceable and identities are hidden. But there | :14:50. | :14:56. | |
may be ways to unmask the abusers. This expert has created software | :14:57. | :15:00. | |
which can mime Dark Net chat rooms. He finds many from the UK. They | :15:01. | :15:05. | |
organised into groups and organised to meet up. More disturbing, rich | :15:06. | :15:12. | |
-ish users are abusing children. They represent distributive 20% of | :15:13. | :15:20. | |
the key producers on the site, we believe are in the UK. So you mean | :15:21. | :15:29. | |
those taking the obscene images? Those producing content being | :15:30. | :15:34. | |
consumed by the wider communities. People who are actually abusing | :15:35. | :15:42. | |
children? We believe so, yes. Police need more tactics to shine a light | :15:43. | :15:43. | |
in the darkest corners. The energy regulator Ofgem has given | :15:44. | :15:49. | |
a stern warning to Npower over its billing problems | :15:50. | :15:53. | |
and customer service. Here's our Industry Correspondent | :15:54. | :15:55. | |
John Moylan to tell us more. What has gone wrong? This has | :15:56. | :16:05. | |
stemmed from a new billing system which has caused problems. It topped | :16:06. | :16:13. | |
the table of the most complaints of the big six firms. The problem at | :16:14. | :16:17. | |
the moment is people not getting a bill at all or who are receiving a | :16:18. | :16:23. | |
bill really late. 400,000 people are affected by this. The company is | :16:24. | :16:30. | |
holding up its hands, it is apologising and saying they are | :16:31. | :16:33. | |
making progress but accept it is not fast enough. Ofgem has launched an | :16:34. | :16:39. | |
investigation and is telling the company it must clear much of this | :16:40. | :16:43. | |
backlog by the end of August or will happen to cease Tela sales | :16:44. | :16:49. | |
activities. It is being told it will have restrictions in gaining new | :16:50. | :16:53. | |
customers until it can prove it can deal with its existing ones. | :16:54. | :17:00. | |

It is crunch day for England in the World Cup. I cannot afford to lose | :17:07. | :17:22. | |

bravery. Felipe VI has been proclaimed | :17:42. | :17:46. | |
the monarch following the abdication of his father King | :17:47. | :17:52. | |
Juan Carlos earlier this month. The new King Felipe has been sworn | :17:53. | :17:55. | |
in by the Spanish parliament and he Our Europe Correspondent, | :17:56. | :17:59. | |
Chris Morris, The morning after the night before. | :18:00. | :18:15. | |
They might be out of the World Cup but Spain has a new King. King | :18:16. | :18:20. | |
Philip six received a sash from his father, it signifies the rank of | :18:21. | :18:25. | |
captain general, the highest rank in the Spanish army. And then to the | :18:26. | :18:29. | |
Spanish parliament where he was sworn in as head of state. There | :18:30. | :18:36. | |
were no foreign leaders present, no correlation. This has been a day of | :18:37. | :18:43. | |
deliberately restrained ceremony. In the most important speech of his | :18:44. | :18:46. | |
life with his wife and two daughters looking on, the King appealed for | :18:47. | :18:52. | |
unity without playing down the challenges he and his country face | :18:53. | :18:56. | |
after years of economic and constitutional crisis. | :18:57. | :19:02. | |
TRANSLATION: I have communicated my sincere and honest feelings about | :19:03. | :19:09. | |
the Spain I identify with. The one I love and aspire to. And the | :19:10. | :19:11. | |
Parliamentary monarchy I believe in. It has to be a renovated | :19:12. | :19:17. | |
monarchy for new times. And then the moment people are | :19:18. | :19:22. | |
waiting for. The royal procession through the streets of Madrid. Here | :19:23. | :19:26. | |
is the new King. It is the first royal succession in Spain since the | :19:27. | :19:31. | |
restoration of democracy in the 1970s. Questions are being asked | :19:32. | :19:37. | |
about whether the monarchy is the right institution to take this | :19:38. | :19:40. | |
country forward. But with this crowd, it is a celebration. I like | :19:41. | :19:50. | |
the monarchy. It is cheaper than republics. It is a way of having a | :19:51. | :20:01. | |
prepared person for the place. I think he will be the King of all | :20:02. | :20:08. | |
Spanish people. I don't mind Republic. I think the monarchy now | :20:09. | :20:13. | |
is the better option, the best option for Spain. Finally, the | :20:14. | :20:24. | |
appearance on the balcony of the Royal Palace, waving to the | :20:25. | :20:28. | |
assembled crowds. But this cannot be business as usual for the Spanish | :20:29. | :20:32. | |
monarchy and the new King seems to accept that. Now he has to deliver | :20:33. | :20:38. | |
on his promise. A man trapped in the deepest cave in | :20:39. | :20:44. | |
Germany has finally been pulled to safety today in a rescue operation | :20:45. | :20:52. | |
that lasted 11 days. The 52-year-old suffered head injuries while | :20:53. | :20:54. | |
potholing nearly 1000 metres underground in a cave in the German | :20:55. | :21:01. | |
Alps. 11 days trapped underground, but now | :21:02. | :21:10. | |
it is over. Sometimes he has been squeezed through the tightest gaps. | :21:11. | :21:13. | |
Sometimes he has been winched up caves, hundreds of metres high. It | :21:14. | :21:20. | |
has been inch by inch, up from a whole 1000 metres deep. There was | :21:21. | :21:22. | |
tension from the rescue was right until the end. | :21:23. | :21:29. | |

arrived at the TRANSLATION: I have the joyous duty | :21:32. | :21:33. | |
to clinic in a good state and we have managed to fulfil the essential | :21:34. | :21:38. | |
aim of the operation. The complex of caves in the Alps is | :21:39. | :21:41. | |
high on the board between Germany and Austria. Sometimes 300 metres, | :21:42. | :21:54. | |
straight down. And then 1000 metres below the surface, the caves | :21:55. | :21:56. | |
stretched horizontally to the injured man. 200 people have been | :21:57. | :22:03. | |
involved in the rescue. Helicopters have constantly ferried suppliers to | :22:04. | :22:08. | |
the top of the mountain, where a tiny hole leads into the complex of | :22:09. | :22:14. | |
caves. There is the question of cost. Cavers normally take out | :22:15. | :22:18. | |
insurance, but this will go nowhere near covering the rescue operation. | :22:19. | :22:27. | |
Now for a tale of two villages - they're a mile apart, | :22:28. | :22:30. | |
but soon to be a world apart in terms of flood defences. | :22:31. | :22:33. | |
Both villages in Devon lost all their flood | :22:34. | :22:35. | |

The other village, five minutes down the road, has lost out. | :22:39. | :22:42. | |
This is the story of two coastal villages, Beesands on the left is | :22:43. | :22:53. | |
being officially fully protected from the sea. Hallsands on the | :22:54. | :23:03. | |
right, is not. Hallsands has been inhabited since the 17th century. It | :23:04. | :23:09. | |
was swept away by floods in 1917. Now, the rebuilt village has been | :23:10. | :23:13. | |
told that following last winter's storms the government will no longer | :23:14. | :23:16. | |
substantially intervene to protect it from the waves. We got betrayed | :23:17. | :23:24. | |
in the old village and now we are going, no help at all. It is a joke | :23:25. | :23:29. | |
all the time. This morning that local frustration was aimed at | :23:30. | :23:32. | |
ministers and councillors who came to visit Hallsands. We have | :23:33. | :23:37. | |
responsibility, not just for Hallsands... The government's flood | :23:38. | :23:40. | |
recovery Minister said he was listening. Then came the | :23:41. | :23:45. | |
all-important question. So you will put more money on? It is a question | :23:46. | :23:51. | |
of trying to do that, but not at huge expense. A mile down the coast, | :23:52. | :23:55. | |
Beesands and a different story. The local council says it is bigger, has | :23:56. | :23:59. | |
more people and there will be intervention to save it. The local | :24:00. | :24:02. | |
landlord says they are lucky compared to neighbouring Hallsands. | :24:03. | :24:06. | |
But that not all coastal locations can be protected. Ella Bobbin in the | :24:07. | :24:12. | |
ideal world everywhere should be saved. Money is very tight. We have | :24:13. | :24:17. | |
to be realistic. There are tidal changes and it is affecting | :24:18. | :24:24. | |
different places throughout the country, throughout the world. It is | :24:25. | :24:27. | |
a reality many coastal areas of Britain are now facing. To give an | :24:28. | :24:30. | |
even clearer idea of what is going on, here in Beesands these massive | :24:31. | :24:36. | |
sea defences stretch 500 metres along this coast line. Whereas here | :24:37. | :24:44. | |
in Hallsands, the rocks only stretch for 50 metres, one tenth of the | :24:45. | :24:50. | |
protection. One post, two villages, and the changing story of our | :24:51. | :24:58. | |
maritime Gucci. -- one post and the changing story of our maritime | :24:59. | :24:59. | |
future. Thousands | :25:00. | :25:20. | |
of England fans have arrived in Sao Paulo for tonight's crucial | :25:21. | :25:22. | |
World Cup match against Uruguay. Captain Steven Gerrard has told | :25:23. | :25:24. | |
the squad it's a must-win scenario. Defeat would mean England would | :25:25. | :25:27. | |
almost certainly be eliminated They have an army of 20,000 fans who | :25:28. | :25:37. | |
will pack into the stadium tonight, but England have supporters who will | :25:38. | :25:41. | |
be there in force as well. Our correspondent Wyre Davies is with | :25:42. | :25:42. | |
some of the fans. It was the mismatch of the World Cup | :25:43. | :25:48. | |
so far. A team of Brazilian kids barely | :25:49. | :25:51. | |
in their teens showing some much bigger and slower Englishman how to | :25:52. | :25:54. | |
play the beautiful game. In one of Sao Paulo's toughest | :25:55. | :25:57. | |
neighbourhoods, some footballing diplomacy as England fans handed out | :25:58. | :26:00. | |
dozens of shirts donated To share this experience, | :26:01. | :26:03. | |
to see this charity, the work they do and to play football | :26:04. | :26:13. | |
against some of the local kids. It's a big day | :26:14. | :26:16. | |
for these players too. England in Sao Paulo for a game | :26:17. | :26:20. | |
they simply cannot afford to lose. After the debilitating effect of | :26:21. | :26:25. | |
the heat and humidity in Manaus on England's players, the weather here | :26:26. | :26:29. | |
could really work to their advantage because it is decidedly cold and wet | :26:30. | :26:32. | |
here in Brazil's biggest city. The Italy defeat behind them, | :26:33. | :26:38. | |
England's senior players know they played well enough in Manaus to | :26:39. | :26:42. | |
believe their Cup is not yet over. I have no doubts going into this | :26:43. | :26:47. | |
game that we are going to create I think you will see another good | :26:48. | :26:50. | |
attacking England performance and that is the reason why I believe | :26:51. | :26:59. | |
the key to this game is if we can But Gerrard's clubmate | :27:00. | :27:03. | |
and close friend Luis Suarez is back He could provide that extra bit | :27:04. | :27:09. | |
of bite that Uruguay missed These England fans are already | :27:10. | :27:16. | |
having the time of their lives in a country where football can be | :27:17. | :27:23. | |
a tool for good. A win against Uruguay today would | :27:24. | :27:26. | |
complete a memorable journey. Our sports correspondent Natalie | :27:27. | :27:47. | |
Pirks is in Sao Paulo. A defining moment for Roy Hodgson and his team? | :27:48. | :27:53. | |
Absolutely, but the thing is, I have never seen them so confident and | :27:54. | :27:57. | |
upbeat after a defeat. It is a rather strange scenario. England's | :27:58. | :28:03. | |
attacking play against Italy was a high point. Roy Hodgson said he will | :28:04. | :28:06. | |
repeat the trick tonight. He said, we're not going to put any of our | :28:07. | :28:10. | |
weapons down. He added, we have to get Italy out of our system and make | :28:11. | :28:15. | |
sure we come out on top. It will be exciting and the key is who defends | :28:16. | :28:20. | |
best. The attacking players on both sides of the bright points of both | :28:21. | :28:25. | |
teams. Uruguay are without two of their four first choice defenders | :28:26. | :28:28. | |
but they have Suarez back. The man Steven Gerrard knows so well, the | :28:29. | :28:33. | |
man he calls a genius. Steven Gerrard is one of six players to | :28:34. | :28:38. | |
have tasted World Cup pain before. He has told the young players on | :28:39. | :28:41. | |
this side that they really have to go for it because they will have a | :28:42. | :28:44. | |
long, terrible, frustrating summer if they don't get it right tonight. | :28:45. | :28:48. | |
It will be the difference between waking up and feeling on top of the | :28:49. | :28:51. | |
world tomorrow, or nervously waiting to see what happens in the Italy | :28:52. | :28:55. | |
game against Costa Rica, to see if they will be dumped out of the group | :28:56. | :28:59. | |
stages for the first time since 1958. Many thanks. Here in Rio de | :29:00. | :29:07. | |
Janeiro everyone is reeling after Spain, the defending World Cup | :29:08. | :29:11. | |
champions, were knocked out of the tournament last night. England are | :29:12. | :29:14. | |
hoping they don't make an early exit as well. | :29:15. | :29:17. | |
Time for a look at the weather. The weather is completely different | :29:18. | :29:30. | |
in Sao Paulo, we pick up more cloud and rain, and temperatures are much, | :29:31. | :29:36. | |
much lower 13th-14 Celsius for the match. Yesterday we saw 26 degrees | :29:37. | :29:42. | |
in Scotland. We have a cold front slipping South, introducing fresh | :29:43. | :29:45. | |
conditions. It is going to be a decent day in Scotland. We have | :29:46. | :29:49. | |
sunshine through the central lowlands. Many other places enjoying | :29:50. | :29:53. | |
spells of sunshine. The cloud is drifting south, bringing light rain | :29:54. | :29:55. | |
and drizzle in many places this afternoon -- but many places are | :29:56. | :30:02. | |
warm, dry and bright this afternoon. Where you get the sunshine, | :30:03. | :30:04. | |
particularly in the south and west of the UK, we have high levels of | :30:05. | :30:09. | |
pollen. It is quite high generally. The further north you go, the levels | :30:10. | :30:14. | |
drop off. It is a decent afternoon across most parts of the UK. The | :30:15. | :30:18. | |
cloud in the south and east tents to break up. One of two showers, but | :30:19. | :30:23. | |
the vast majority fine and dry. Through the central lowlands of | :30:24. | :30:28. | |
Scotland, a lovely afternoon, fresher, warm. 22 Celsius in | :30:29. | :30:31. | |
Glasgow. Light winds across the North of England. Maybe the odd spot | :30:32. | :30:35. | |
of rain over the Pennines but most places enjoying decent spells of | :30:36. | :30:39. | |
sunshine. Lovely sunshine in the south and the West, the highest | :30:40. | :30:44. | |
temperatures are 25-26 Celsius. Into the low 20s in the south-east, maybe | :30:45. | :30:49. | |
an odd spot of rain in the corner. This evening and overnight, quiet. | :30:50. | :30:53. | |
It is dry virtually everywhere. Clear spells for money. Temperatures | :30:54. | :30:58. | |
not dropping away too far. Lowest temperatures in the far north where | :30:59. | :31:02. | |
there is a breeze and more two overnight showers. Most of us start | :31:03. | :31:06. | |
Friday on a decent note. It will be a pleasant day with good spells of | :31:07. | :31:10. | |
sunshine for most of us. The far north of Scotland sees a bit of | :31:11. | :31:13. | |
breeze, extra cloud and light rain. It is dry pretty much everywhere | :31:14. | :31:18. | |
else. Pleasantly warm. 18 or 19 in Glasgow, 22 or 23 in Cardiff and | :31:19. | :31:24. | |
London. Into the start of the weekend, pretty good for most | :31:25. | :31:28. | |
places. Dry, bright, not particularly breezy. The North of | :31:29. | :31:31. | |
Scotland has the cut cloud and outbreaks of rain. We will do it | :31:32. | :31:36. | |
again on Sunday. Most places enjoying a pleasant weekend with | :31:37. | :31:38. | |
good spells of sunshine. The North of Scotland has the cut cloud and | :31:39. | :31:43. | |
rain. Top temperatures into the low to middle 20s. Really good | :31:44. | :31:46. | |
opportunities for getting out and about. A lot of dry weather, plenty | :31:47. | :31:52. | |
of stun China still some warmth. -- sunshine and still some warmth. | :31:53. | :32:01. | |
