:00:12. > :00:22.Sierra Leone, is being treated at the Royal Free Hospital in London.

:00:23. > :00:24.The Prime Minister leads the tributes to the actor and

:00:25. > :00:29.director Richard Attenborough, whose death was announced last night.

:00:30. > :00:34.A mother is jailed for 11 years for murdering her three-year old son

:00:35. > :00:41.and hiding his body in a suitcase in woodland.

:00:42. > :00:44.The French government resigns in a very public argument over austerity.

:00:45. > :00:51.Why watching other people play computer games is now considered

:00:52. > :01:15.Doctors at a London hospital have begun treating

:01:16. > :01:19.a British man who contracted the Ebola virus in Sierra Leone.

:01:20. > :01:22.He was flown to Britain last night by the RAF.

:01:23. > :01:25.The man's been named by a colleague as William Pooley,

:01:26. > :01:28.a 29-year-old nurse who volunteered to go to West Africa to care

:01:29. > :01:41.The disease has already killed almost 1,500 people in the region.

:01:42. > :01:54.William Pooley went to Sierra Leone to care for the dying, visiting aids

:01:55. > :01:59.and cancer patients in their homes. When Ebola struck, he went to help

:02:00. > :02:05.out in hospital, putting his own life at risk. Very compassionate. He

:02:06. > :02:13.loves people. He worked for long hours. He is a patient in the UK's

:02:14. > :02:20.only high-level isolation unit. His bed sealed inside a tent, the air in

:02:21. > :02:28.and out filtered. He will be treated by people in special suits designed

:02:29. > :02:31.to avoid contact with Ebola. It spread by contact with somebody who

:02:32. > :02:36.is infected, their body fluids. People who have died who are

:02:37. > :02:43.particularly infectious. You cannot get the virus through breathing in.

:02:44. > :02:50.It is not the most infectious virus we can deal with. It is nowhere near

:02:51. > :02:55.as infectious as influenza. Teams have arrived in West Africa. Basic

:02:56. > :02:59.health systems stretched beyond their limits. Health workers are

:03:00. > :03:02.taking every precaution but long hours and difficult conditions

:03:03. > :03:08.increase the chances of being exposed to the virus. At the last

:03:09. > :03:11.little in north London the NHS is looking after one of its own. The

:03:12. > :03:15.selfless volunteer nurse in their care.

:03:16. > :03:21.Branwen is here. What can doctors actually do for him?

:03:22. > :03:31.There is no problem treatment for the Ebola virus but William Pooley

:03:32. > :03:35.is at least in highly specialised treatment were my key can get the

:03:36. > :03:40.best chance of recovery. That means treating all of the symptoms that

:03:41. > :03:46.can occur, for example vomiting and diarrhoea. The isolation tent will

:03:47. > :03:51.make a big difference to keep him and the people looking after him

:03:52. > :03:59.very safe. They will be trying to bolster his immune system. Hopefully

:04:00. > :04:03.he will have a robust immune system. They will treat any other

:04:04. > :04:05.small infections which made her car to give his body the best chance of

:04:06. > :04:11.fighting off the virus. The Prime Minister has led

:04:12. > :04:13.the tributes to the actor and director Richard Attenborough,

:04:14. > :04:15.whose death at the age David Cameron called

:04:16. > :04:18.Lord Attenborough one Film producer David Puttnam said

:04:19. > :04:25.his friend was "completely irreplaceable" and had done "a

:04:26. > :04:27.mind-boggling list of decent, Jon Brain has been listening to

:04:28. > :04:43.the tributes. You cannot have any more to drink.

:04:44. > :04:48.1942, and a promising young actor made his debut in a wartime morale

:04:49. > :04:52.booster. Over seven decades, Richard Attenborough was to become one of

:04:53. > :05:00.the towering figures of British and ultimately world cinema. I ought to

:05:01. > :05:06.be drunk. I want to be drunk. His talent in front of the camera was

:05:07. > :05:13.obvious. The role of a psychopath in Drayton Rock was an early triumph.

:05:14. > :05:20.Described as the best realisation of one of his characters he had ever

:05:21. > :05:25.seen on film. For the next 20 years he was prolific. The actor of choice

:05:26. > :05:34.for many directors. Here, he excelled as John Christie, an and

:05:35. > :05:38.assuming middle-aged serial killer. It is what I would expect, of

:05:39. > :05:45.course. I know he had decided his future lay behind the camera. A

:05:46. > :05:54.musical saw his first acting as a director. He specialised in the epic

:05:55. > :05:59.sweep of history. Young Winston was a compelling biography of the early

:06:00. > :06:09.years of Churchill. Illiterate they maybe... His greatest triumph came

:06:10. > :06:19.in 1992, Gandhi dominated the following your's Oscars, including

:06:20. > :06:24.two for Attenborough himself. Friends say his achievements went

:06:25. > :06:29.beyond that. He not only had talent, I think you would call it genius for

:06:30. > :06:36.knowing what to do and having the persistence to go ahead and do it.

:06:37. > :06:39.He was an extraordinary man, the canopy of the British film industry

:06:40. > :06:45.and more in the last extent or 70 years. In an interview in 2007 he

:06:46. > :06:51.spoke of his love for his chosen profession. In the movies, in the

:06:52. > :06:58.cinema, is heaven on earth for me. I would want to go on and on until I

:06:59. > :07:03.disappeared. He did go on until the end. Right up until his death he was

:07:04. > :07:14.collaborating on a project for yet another film.

:07:15. > :07:17.Jon Brain looking back at the life of Richard Attenborough, whose

:07:18. > :07:21.There's a special tribute programme to Lord Attenborough tonight on

:07:22. > :07:25.With just over three weeks to go until the Scottish referendum

:07:26. > :07:27.on independence, a second televised debate takes place this evening.

:07:28. > :07:28.Scotland's First Minister, Alex Salmond,

:07:29. > :07:31.and the Labour former chancellor, Alistair Darling, who represents

:07:32. > :07:34.the Better Together campaign, will go head to head in Glasgow.

:07:35. > :07:38.Our correspondent Lorna Gordon's there for us now.

:07:39. > :07:44.Lorna, what issues do you think will dominate the debate this evening?

:07:45. > :07:51.Both sides have been trotting out the one-liners this morning, trying

:07:52. > :07:54.to capture and their arguments in a single sentence. Those who believe

:07:55. > :08:01.in independence there this is about voting for prosperity versus

:08:02. > :08:04.austerity if you want to stay within the union. Those who believe in the

:08:05. > :08:11.union said the problem is not with the salesmen, it is with the

:08:12. > :08:17.product. They believe there are too many unanswered questions. You will

:08:18. > :08:21.see them revisiting some of the issues that have been dominating the

:08:22. > :08:27.agenda over the past few weeks. Both protagonists will focus in on what

:08:28. > :08:34.they see as their strength at the other side's weaknesses. You would

:08:35. > :08:38.expect Alistair Darling to revisit currency and statistics with oil.

:08:39. > :08:43.Alex Salmond will probably bring up different statistics to do with oil

:08:44. > :08:49.and will focus on the issue of the NHS, which he will argue can on the

:08:50. > :08:53.be safeguarded with a yes vote. That is disputed by the other side. We

:08:54. > :08:58.know more about the structure of this debate, to start with opening

:08:59. > :09:05.statements, the order of those to be decided with a toss of a coin, as

:09:06. > :09:09.his where each man will stand. Alex Salmond will be on the right,

:09:10. > :09:16.Alistair Darling in the middle and Glen Campbell on the left. They will

:09:17. > :09:21.have to touch on four topics, the economy, Scotland at home, Scotland

:09:22. > :09:26.and the world and what happens after the vote. Expect a big audience,

:09:27. > :09:43.aiming in particular at the undecided voters.

:09:44. > :09:49.The mother of Mikaeel Kular has been jailed for 11 years at the High

:09:50. > :09:54.Court in Edinburgh this morning for killing her three-year-old son.

:09:55. > :09:57.Rosedeep Adekoya was accused of murdering Mikaeel Kular but admitted

:09:58. > :10:02.a lesser charge of culpable homicide which was accepted by prosecutors.

:10:03. > :10:05.Adekoya, who is 34, beat the boy to death in January.

:10:06. > :10:11.Andrew Anderson reports from Edinburgh.

:10:12. > :10:13.Three-year-old Mikaeel Kular whose body suffered 40 injuries when

:10:14. > :10:18.health service found by police in January this year. His mother,

:10:19. > :10:22.Rosedeep Adekoya, struck him repeatedly angry her son had been

:10:23. > :10:26.sick after they had eaten at a restaurant. Two days after he died

:10:27. > :10:30.from internal injuries at the family home in Edinburgh, his mother called

:10:31. > :10:34.999, telling police her son disappeared from the flats during

:10:35. > :10:37.the night. That sparked a massive police operation in the north of the

:10:38. > :10:42.city. Hundreds of locals turned out,

:10:43. > :10:47.anxious to help, desperate to find the toddler. In this particular

:10:48. > :10:51.case, it became clear that Mikaeel Kular hadn't gone missing of his own

:10:52. > :10:56.accord, as had initially been reported. Therefore we started to

:10:57. > :11:00.pursue lines of inquiry that led us eventually to the site that his body

:11:01. > :11:05.had been deposited in. In fact, his body was lying in

:11:06. > :11:10.woodland 20 miles away in Fife. His mother wrapped her son in bedding

:11:11. > :11:12.put his body in a suitcase and hidden it in woodland behind her

:11:13. > :11:19.sister's house. A court in Edinburgh this morning,

:11:20. > :11:25.Rosedeep Adekoya was sentenced to 11 years. She admitted a lesser charge

:11:26. > :11:28.of murder, of culpable homicide. Her lawyer told the court this had been

:11:29. > :11:31.completely out of character and there was nothing to suggest that

:11:32. > :11:35.Rosedeep Adekoya would behave in such a way towards her children.

:11:36. > :11:39.Rosedeep Adekoya and her family we are known to social services in

:11:40. > :11:44.Edinburgh and in Fife. Social work involvement with the family appears

:11:45. > :11:47.to have ended in December last year. Four weeks later, Rosedeep Adekoya

:11:48. > :11:51.killed her son. There is - now an inquiry under way

:11:52. > :11:57.into whether more could have been done to prevent the death of Mikaeel

:11:58. > :12:02.Kular. The Mayor of London, Boris Johnson,

:12:03. > :12:06.has called for tougher powers to deal with extremists who leave

:12:07. > :12:09.Britain to fight in Iraq and Syria. Writing in his Daily Telegraph

:12:10. > :12:12.column, Mr Johnson says control orders should be brought back

:12:13. > :12:16.immediately for the most serious cases. He also says some people

:12:17. > :12:20.should be stripped of their citizenship. Our Political

:12:21. > :12:26.Correspondent, Iain Watson, joins me now. What more has he been saying?

:12:27. > :12:29.He's got a lot to say. The 500 British Jihadis fighting in Syria,

:12:30. > :12:35.half are estimated to come from London. It's not surprising the

:12:36. > :12:38.City's Mayor would speak out. He's mentioned the reintroduction of

:12:39. > :12:41.control orders, detention without trial, introduced by the Labour

:12:42. > :12:46.Government but scrapped by the coal Is. The most controversial proposal

:12:47. > :12:50.is to say there will be an assumption that anyone travelling to

:12:51. > :12:54.Iraq and Syria would be assumed to be there for terrorist purposes, in

:12:55. > :12:57.other words, a presumption of guilty and not innocence. The Home Office

:12:58. > :13:03.said they are taking strong action so this change in the law isn't

:13:04. > :13:07.necessary and until recently, the most senior law officer drive, told

:13:08. > :13:13.the BBC that he thought this was Draconian -- Dominic Grieve. He said

:13:14. > :13:18.it could undermine British values. Boris Johnson is set to become a

:13:19. > :13:23.Conservative MP once again. The constituency is about to select its

:13:24. > :13:27.candidate so it doesn't do any harm writing an article saying we should

:13:28. > :13:30.get tougher on the terrorists, more tougher than the Government is

:13:31. > :13:33.prepared to be. France's government's collapsed this

:13:34. > :13:38.morning in a row over the country's faltering economy. The country's

:13:39. > :13:40.Prime Minister offered up his socialist Government's resignation

:13:41. > :13:44.to Francois Hollande after criticism from within the Cabinet about

:13:45. > :13:49.France's austerity programme. Let's speak to our correspondent in

:13:50. > :13:54.Paris, Lucy Williamson. Why is the president reacting in this way?

:13:55. > :13:58.I think he's keen to show he's not going to Buckle under pressure and

:13:59. > :14:03.there's been an awful lot of pressure on his economic policy. His

:14:04. > :14:07.election promises about boosting growth and creating jobs are in

:14:08. > :14:11.shreds. He's got an awful lot of pressure coming from Brussels to cut

:14:12. > :14:17.spending faster and now, over the weekend, he's had this fresh attack

:14:18. > :14:22.from within his own party on those economic policies. His economic

:14:23. > :14:26.minister, one of the two men who actually run France's economy. His

:14:27. > :14:30.reaction to that by dissolving the Government and recreating the

:14:31. > :14:34.Cabinet as a whole, really says that he's not going to be swayed by that

:14:35. > :14:37.pressure, he's going to stick to his economic policies whatever anyone

:14:38. > :14:44.else thinks and it also tells us just how much is at stake for him.

:14:45. > :14:48.Thank you very much. Now, it's a grey and wet Bank

:14:49. > :14:51.Holiday for many of us today but the organisers of Britain's biggest

:14:52. > :14:56.indoor gaming festival couldn't have hoped for better weather. Thousands

:14:57. > :15:00.of people have descended on Coventry's rich Cho Arena for the

:15:01. > :15:04.event. Graham Satchell has been finding out that watching other

:15:05. > :15:07.people play computer games is fast becoming a legitimate spectator

:15:08. > :15:12.report. This report contains flashing images.

:15:13. > :15:19.They have come in their thousands. Some to play computer games, but

:15:20. > :15:25.most to watch. I know what you are thinking,

:15:26. > :15:30.sitting in front of a computer all day playing games is one thing but

:15:31. > :15:33.sitting watching other people playing games all day... Really? If

:15:34. > :15:38.you know the game, you can appreciate the level of skill and

:15:39. > :15:42.technical ability that goes into it. It's funny to watch some of the

:15:43. > :15:47.stuff they can do and think, wow, they must have really put a lot of

:15:48. > :15:53.practise into this. It inspires you to keep on going. It's enough of a

:15:54. > :15:57.sport to be sitting inside and hone your skills in that way instead of

:15:58. > :16:02.with a football or a rugby ball. Do you think it's a legitimate sport?

:16:03. > :16:05.Yes, yes. This is a hi-tech professional set-up. Two teams play

:16:06. > :16:11.for thousands of pounds in prize money. You can see the tension.

:16:12. > :16:20.The game is streamed live online, there are even commentators.

:16:21. > :16:24.Great work from him... Gaming is of course a multibillion

:16:25. > :16:28.pound industry and there's plenty of money changing hands here on the

:16:29. > :16:32.coolest newest stuff. But what is surprising is the

:16:33. > :16:37.numbers of people now watching other people play games like this, the

:16:38. > :16:41.global audience online and at live events last year was over 70

:16:42. > :16:47.million. Lost in a world of mine craft, we

:16:48. > :16:51.met 11-year-old Alex. Mine craft is some sort of game that is built by

:16:52. > :16:56.the perfect people. Why do you like watching other

:16:57. > :17:00.people playing? Well, it makes me feel like I want to do what they are

:17:01. > :17:04.going to do. This is Josh and his mum Michelle.

:17:05. > :17:10.Josh watches videos of gaming all the time. His mum doesn't get it. I

:17:11. > :17:13.find it really weird. I was watching it earlier, watching people

:17:14. > :17:16.commenting on other people's playing and I've never seen anything like

:17:17. > :17:20.it. Obviously that's where the fun is, which I hadn't really got. I

:17:21. > :17:25.thought it was just the gaming itself. So I do find it slightly

:17:26. > :17:29.strange. On stage, some living legends, gamers who record

:17:30. > :17:41.themselves playing League of Legends and then uploaded on to YouTube.

:17:42. > :17:47.This man has thousands. I have a coach. It's a really nice... I'm

:17:48. > :17:52.happy it's a sustainable job that I have for now.

:17:53. > :17:56.This event is taking place at Coventry's football ground. So is

:17:57. > :18:01.the national sport being overtaken by so-called e-sport? Not yet. Some

:18:02. > :18:02.here can't even stay awake. But gaming is evolving and growing all

:18:03. > :18:14.the time. You can see more on all of today's

:18:15. > :18:17.stories on the BBC News Channel. The next news on BBC One is at 5.30, or

:18:18. > :18:18.if you are in
