:21:07. > :21:09.The Defence Secretary Michael Fallon will make a statement in the house
:21:10. > :21:11.of commons on this evening on reports that British-made cluster
:21:12. > :21:14.bombs may have been used by Saudi forces in Yemen.
:21:15. > :21:16.The weapon releases multiple smaller bombs over a wide area,
:21:17. > :21:18.and it's illegal to supply them under British law.
:21:19. > :21:23.Our security correspondent Frank Gardner reports.
:21:24. > :21:29.Amid the horror of Yemen's two-year-old war, there are some
:21:30. > :21:34.weapons that won't go away. Along with landmine, the cluster bomb
:21:35. > :21:41.poses an extreme risk to civilians. Banned in Britain since 2010, some
:21:42. > :21:45.of these bombs sold by the UK to said -- Saudi Arabia before the ban
:21:46. > :21:48.have been used in Yemen The six has been difficult for the British
:21:49. > :21:53.Government. Saudi Arabia is hugely important to the UK and to the
:21:54. > :21:57.British defence industry, but just as relevant as that is considering
:21:58. > :22:02.what would be the consequence of restricting arms deliveries to Saudi
:22:03. > :22:06.Arabia. Saudi Air Force Tornado jets were
:22:07. > :22:10.fitted to carry cluster bomb, the Saudis say they don't use British
:22:11. > :22:15.cluster bombs as they have all expired. Whitehall officials say the
:22:16. > :22:19.Saudis have destroyed their British stocks, and yet, evidence of their
:22:20. > :22:24.use has been found on the ground in Yemen. We know many years ago the
:22:25. > :22:29.British Government sold cluster bombs, they are now illegal. What we
:22:30. > :22:35.are clear about at amnesty, they are now turning up in Yemen. We told the
:22:36. > :22:38.British Government this in May this year, when our researchers
:22:39. > :22:44.discovered cluster bombs being used. We had the evidence.
:22:45. > :22:48.For the Prime Minister, Theresa May, seen here meeting gulf rulers this
:22:49. > :22:54.month. This is an awkward issue, he Government is pushing for closer
:22:55. > :22:58.ties with the gulf, the Human Rights activists and Jeremy Corbyn are
:22:59. > :23:01.calling for an arms embargo on Saudi Arabia. That is something that
:23:02. > :23:08.Number Ten will want to avoid at all costs. In the Commons today, the
:23:09. > :23:11.Defence Secretary is expected to make a statement, clarifying what
:23:12. > :23:15.the Government knows about the use of British weapons in the Yemen war.
:23:16. > :23:22.He is likely to face some pressing questions.
:23:23. > :23:24.Football's international governing body has fined England, Wales,

:23:29. > :23:30.Our sports correspondent David Ornstein is here -
:23:31. > :23:36.and that's because FIFA says they are a political symbol?
:23:37. > :23:45.Yes, you may remember in 2011, England wore a poppy on an armband
:23:46. > :23:49.in a friendly against Spain. So too Scotland, but neither were punished,
:23:50. > :23:55.but since then Fifa have tightened their rules round what they deem to
:23:56. > :23:59.be political, so the Home Nations had been warned, they knew they
:24:00. > :24:03.risked punishment. They hoped they reached a compromise but it hasn't
:24:04. > :24:07.happened N the case of England and Scotland, England have been fined
:24:08. > :24:13.round ?35,000, Scotland 16,00 pounds. For their meeting at
:24:14. > :24:19.Wembley, over both the display of the poppy on an armband. Also by
:24:20. > :24:23.supporters and the English FA has been punished for displays in the
:24:24. > :24:29.stadium. Wales from their friendly against Serbia have been fined round
:24:30. > :24:33.16,00 pounds. Northern Ireland who played Azerbaijan ?15,000, for
:24:34. > :24:37.similar offencers Fifa say there is only room for sport and nothing else

:24:58. > :24:59.Since I couldn't find anyone to love who would love me,

:25:07. > :25:09.Crushed in a late-night train, I saw God's image in them, and they ceased
:25:10. > :25:12.to be pushy, crazed cattle, but souls journeying
:25:13. > :25:17.And when I offered one my seat, I saw how love had blossomed

:25:40. > :25:42.She made more than 70 films, but as one of the first socialites,
:25:43. > :25:45.she helped invent a new kind of fame from multiple marriages
:25:46. > :25:53.This report from Nick Higham contains some flashing images.
:25:54. > :25:55.Zsa Zsa Gabor may have been a great beauty,
:25:56. > :25:58.I know everything - I heard the verdict.
:25:59. > :26:04.I must take that risk, and so must you.
:26:05. > :26:06.Her screen career was undistinguished, though it did
:26:07. > :26:08.include camp classics like the truly terrible Queen Of Outer Space.
:26:09. > :26:11.If you must go, promise me you're going to come back to me.
:26:12. > :26:14.Her greatest role was as herself, one of the first professional
:26:15. > :26:16.celebrities, famous for simply being famous.
:26:17. > :26:19.She was rich, she was gorgeous, she was outrageous and she ate
:26:20. > :26:24.Her last marriage, in 1986, was her eighth,
:26:25. > :26:27.or ninth, if you include an illegal ceremony conducted at sea.
:26:28. > :26:31.Women don't even get married any more today.
:26:32. > :26:40.They said you have to get married, legalised, which was dumb but now

:26:54. > :26:58.She was well into her 70s, though during the court case
:26:59. > :27:01.she was accused of doctoring her driving licence to disguise her age.
:27:02. > :27:03.By then, her film career had collapsed into self-parody.
:27:04. > :27:10.Every time I see you, I get lumps in my throat.
:27:11. > :27:16.But she never lost a certain innocence, nor her wit.

:27:26. > :27:28.The corner shop has been at the centre of our communities

:27:48. > :27:52.With every corner shop across Britain, there is a story.
:27:53. > :27:55.And that story reflects the changing face and fortunes of the country.
:27:56. > :28:02.And don't bother about the 3p, you can owe it to me.
:28:03. > :28:05.Britain has often been called a nation of shopkeepers,
:28:06. > :28:13.a nation built on entrepreneurial drive which dates back to the 1940s.
:28:14. > :28:15.The corner shop was the social centre of two or three streets.
:28:16. > :28:22.They talked about interesting things.
:28:23. > :28:24.It was the social gathering of the area.
:28:25. > :28:27.It was better than the local BBC, it picked up all the news.
:28:28. > :28:29.The rise of supermarkets threatened the future

:29:04. > :29:10.But life for shopkeepers was not easy, and corner shops were under
:29:11. > :29:13.threat from supermarkets nestling in on the high streets,
:29:14. > :29:17.with discounted products and bargain deals.
:29:18. > :29:20.The corner shop had no choice but to diversify.
:29:21. > :29:22.From here you can see Tesco anywhere, one of the supermarkets.
:29:23. > :29:26.On the other side you have Sainsbury's.
:29:27. > :29:29.Four, five years ago I really thought we would have to wind up
:29:30. > :29:33.and close and forget it, you know.

:30:15. > :30:22.S, Fifa say there is only room for sport and nothing else when inside
:30:23. > :30:24.the stadium and on the pitch but we can expect appeals here.
:30:25. > :30:27.It is not feeling like December. Very mild so far, and bland really
:30:28. > :30:31.for most of us, in fact this weather watcher's picture illustrates the
:30:32. > :30:35.story again, a cloudy start, low cloud and following and a grey
:30:36. > :30:40.story, but things are set to change, it has to be said. So after a quiet
:30:41. > :30:44.start to the week, it is going to turn wet and windy with gales or
:30:45. > :30:48.severe gales sandwiched in between the two, we could for a time see
:30:49. > :30:51.brighter interludes as well. The reason being though, the high
:30:52. > :30:55.pressure that has been the driving force for so long, that is drifting
:30:56. > :30:59.further east into Europe and it is opening the floodgates for a series
:31:00. > :31:03.of low pressures to move in from the Atlantic, powered by a fast-moving
:31:04. > :31:08.jet stream, the isobars squeezing together. Gales or severe gales
:31:09. > :31:13.likely, there is one area of low pressure moves away, a brief lull
:31:14. > :31:16.before another. This fella could arrive perhaps for Christmas
:31:17. > :31:20.weekend, but let us move back to here and now before we take a look
:31:21. > :31:24.that the in more detail. A lot of cloud round today, as you can see
:31:25. > :31:28.clearly, the cloud has been thick enough for light rain, for some.
:31:29. > :31:31.Look at Northern Ireland an western Scotland. Beautiful afternoon for
:31:32. > :31:34.you, I hope you are making the most of it because all change for
:31:35. > :31:37.tomorrow. Lovely spells of sunshine through western Scotland and
:31:38. > :31:41.Northern Ireland, perhaps the cloud thick enough in eastern Scotland,
:31:42. > :31:46.down into the Lake District and Wale t odd spot or two or drizzle. A
:31:47. > :31:49.weather front is steadily drifting westwards out of south-east England,
:31:50. > :31:54.towards the Midlands and into Lincolnshire for the afternoon. Fair
:31:55. > :31:59.amount of cloud Jenny in England and Wales and another drab afternoon for
:32:00. > :32:02.many. That, the band of patchy rain will drift steadily westwards,
:32:03. > :32:05.further north we see the temperatures falling away, a frost
:32:06. > :32:09.is likely through Northern Ireland, and Scotland, in towns and city
:32:10. > :32:14.centres round freezing but perhaps in rural parts as low as minus two
:32:15. > :32:20.to four, not set to last though, the next area of low pressure will move
:32:21. > :32:24.in and bring wet and windy wester, heavy rain through Northern Ireland,
:32:25. > :32:29.gales or severe gale, maybe storm force in the extreme north-west of
:32:30. > :32:32.Scotland, so a wet and windy afternoon, by contrast for many
:32:33. > :32:36.central and eastern areas the cloud should break up and we will see
:32:37. > :32:42.glimpses of sunshine. Temperatures fairly uniform at six to eight
:32:43. > :32:47.degree, as we move out of Tuesday, into webs, that front pushes
:32:48. > :32:50.steadily south. The isobars still squeeze together, still windy,
:32:51. > :32:55.plenty of frequent squally showers in the far north-west. Some heavy
:32:56. > :33:01.with hail, even know, it stays wet and mild to the south, much colder
:33:02. > :33:07.further north. Our main story. The orphans of
:33:08. > :33:11.Aleppo, they are among 20,000 people who have been rescued from the ruins
:33:12. > :33:14.of their city as the evacuations in Syria resume. Thousands remain
:33:15. > :33:18.That's all from the BBC News at One, so it's goodbye from me,
