Donald Trump lashes out at both Russia and North Korea ahead

:00:00.:00:07.

On a stopover in Poland, President Trump called Moscow

:00:08.:00:15.

"destabilising" and warned Pyongyang about its nuclear programme.

:00:16.:00:21.

And we have to say, there are dire threats to our security and to our

:00:22.:00:27.

way of life. We'll be asking what Donald Trump

:00:28.:00:29.

can expect from G20 countries Not enough food and the wrong

:00:30.:00:32.

medicines - just some of the failings of adult care

:00:33.:00:40.

services in England. 52-year-old Robert Trigg is been

:00:41.:00:45.

jailed for life for killing two former girl friends

:00:46.:00:48.

five years apart. A year after publishing his report

:00:49.:00:52.

on the Iraq War, Sir John Chilcot has said Tony Blair wasn't

:00:53.:00:55.

as straight with the country Research by the BBC has found that

:00:56.:00:58.

more than 100 people have now been convicted of terrorist offences

:00:59.:01:04.

related to Syria and Iraq. For the first time in 20 years

:01:05.:01:09.

Britain has four players through to the third

:01:10.:01:13.

round at Wimbledon and Kyle Edmund And coming up in the sport: They've

:01:14.:01:15.

been chasing him all summer and now Manchester United have agreed a fee

to the BBC News at One. Donald Trump has described Russia's

:01:27.:01:54.

behaviour as destabilising - and said that the United States

:01:55.:01:57.

is working to combat it. In a speech in Poland in advance

:01:58.:02:01.

of the G20 summit in Germany, President Trump also declared

:02:02.:02:04.

he was considering a very severe response to North Korea's

:02:05.:02:07.

nuclear weapons programme. And he questioned whether the West

:02:08.:02:11.

has the will to survive the dire threats of

:02:12.:02:14.

terrorism, extremism - Our correspondent

:02:15.:02:16.

Wyre Davies reports. It is only the briefest of visits

:02:17.:02:27.

but as the Trump motorcade rolled into Poland, the American president

:02:28.:02:31.

found the country where his populist views on energy, immigration and

:02:32.:02:35.

little correctness are widely admired and shared. -- political

:02:36.:02:42.

correctness. After talks with the Polish president Donald Trump hailed

:02:43.:02:44.

the first export of American natural gas to Poland, a deal which could

:02:45.:02:50.

reduce Poland's dependency on Russian energy, and there was rare

:02:51.:02:55.

direct criticism of Moscow over tensions in Eastern Europe. America

:02:56.:03:00.

is committed to maintaining peace and security in Central and Eastern

:03:01.:03:05.

Europe. We are working with Poland in response to Russia's actions and

:03:06.:03:10.

destabilising behaviour. But as many as 5000 American troops based in

:03:11.:03:15.

Poland, Donald Trump repeated his demand that it was past time for

:03:16.:03:18.

other members of the Nato alliance to get going, as he put it with

:03:19.:03:24.

their financial obligations. But his most direct comments were again

:03:25.:03:28.

reserved for North Korea, the American leader calling on all

:03:29.:03:30.

nations to confront what he said was the global threat after Pyongyang's

:03:31.:03:37.

latest missile test. It is a shame they are behaving this way but they

:03:38.:03:40.

are behaving in a very very dangerous manner. And something will

:03:41.:03:47.

have to be done about it. The Polish government is done I did that Donald

:03:48.:03:51.

Trump chose here to set out his vision for America's relations with

:03:52.:03:55.

Europe -- is delighted. The president will have been sued by his

:03:56.:03:59.

enthusiastic reception in Poland, when his style and leadership is

:04:00.:04:05.

often ridiculed elsewhere on the continent -- will have been soothed.

:04:06.:04:11.

The crowd chance in his name as Donald Trump began one of the most

:04:12.:04:15.

important speeches of his presidency so far, warning about the threat of

:04:16.:04:19.

extremism to Western civilisation. -- chanting. Today we are in the

:04:20.:04:25.

West and we have to say there are dire threats to our security and to

:04:26.:04:30.

our way of life. You see what is happening out there, they are

:04:31.:04:36.

threats. We will confront them, we will win. But they are threats.

:04:37.:04:41.

Donald Trump can expect a more hostile reception when he arrives in

:04:42.:04:48.

Hamburg later for the G20 summit, anti-globalisation and environmental

:04:49.:04:51.

demonstrators will be kept at bay but the American president may face

:04:52.:04:54.

tough questions from his fellow leaders on issues like global

:04:55.:04:55.

warming and protectionism. And we can speak to our

:04:56.:05:00.

correspondent Adam Easton Looking at those scenes, the

:05:01.:05:10.

president will have been pleased at the reception he got. He will have

:05:11.:05:16.

been very pleased about his reception. He got a standing ovation

:05:17.:05:23.

and it was a very enthusiastic crowd here in Warsaw. The government did

:05:24.:05:29.

get in people from the countryside, the government says happens in many

:05:30.:05:32.

countries, they said, but having said that it was a very enthusiastic

:05:33.:05:39.

response and there was repeated people chanting USA, USA, and it is

:05:40.:05:45.

no surprise that he chose Poland as the place in Europe to deliver his

:05:46.:05:50.

first keynote speech will stop he was pretty much guaranteed that he

:05:51.:05:55.

would get a very warm welcome. Significantly a warmer welcome than

:05:56.:05:57.

he might have got in Germany, perhaps. Not only have the people

:05:58.:06:02.

turned out to see him, but the Polish government are very

:06:03.:06:05.

supportive and they like Donald Trump very much because there are

:06:06.:06:09.

many shared similarities and viewpoints against the little

:06:10.:06:14.

correctness and against liberalism -- political correctness. And

:06:15.:06:20.

against the establishment. There are many things they share in common.

:06:21.:06:26.

Adamant, thanks for joining us. -- Adam.

:06:27.:06:29.

A quarter of adult care services in England are not safe enough,

:06:30.:06:32.

The Care Quality Commission says most services are good,

:06:33.:06:36.

but the quality of some is "fragile and precarious".

:06:37.:06:39.

In some cases, people are not getting enough to eat and drink,

:06:40.:06:41.

and not being given the right medication.

:06:42.:06:43.

This report by our social affairs correspondent,

:06:44.:06:45.

Alison Holt contains some distressing images.

:06:46.:06:46.

Mum, can you open your eyes just a little?

:06:47.:06:51.

Bernie Jarvis carefully gives her mother lunch.

:06:52.:06:53.

The front room of the family's Birmingham home has become

:06:54.:06:55.

They want her close by after discovering the sort

:06:56.:07:01.

of poor care highlighted in today's report.

:07:02.:07:04.

Betty, who has dementia and heart problems, was in a nursing home.

:07:05.:07:08.

The family had concerns, so put in a secret camera.

:07:09.:07:12.

It soon showed a care worker pushing the chair Betty was slumped

:07:13.:07:15.

Then, when Betty objects to her top being changed,

:07:16.:07:20.

her head is slammed back into the chair.

:07:21.:07:22.

Last February in court, the care worker accepted her

:07:23.:07:31.

actions were reckless rather than intentional.

:07:32.:07:34.

She was given a 12 month community order.

:07:35.:07:36.

Query everything. Don't let them dismiss you.

:07:37.:07:40.

Because they did with us for about eight months.

:07:41.:07:43.

And I wish we had pursued it a lot quicker than we did,

:07:44.:07:48.

because mum probably wouldn't have suffered the way she did.

:07:49.:07:53.

Today's report by inspectors says most care in England

:07:54.:07:55.

Even so, a quarter of all services including home care and residential

:07:56.:08:04.

homes failed on safety, and 37% of nursing homes

:08:05.:08:07.

Also, when reinspected, quality of care in some good

:08:08.:08:12.

What we're seeing in these services that are deteriorating is how

:08:13.:08:20.

fragile and precarious quality in adult social care is.

:08:21.:08:24.

That's the reason why we have to make sure that everybody

:08:25.:08:27.

Providers have got to focus on that, and commissioners and funders have

:08:28.:08:34.

to make sure funding is available to ensure that people get

:08:35.:08:36.

Campaigners say the report is an indication of the pressure

:08:37.:08:42.

that social care is under because of increasing

:08:43.:08:44.

For individual older people and their families that means

:08:45.:08:50.

they are facing a degree of Russian roulette.

:08:51.:08:52.

Will they get good care, will they get any care?

:08:53.:08:55.

Will it be affordable? Will the carer turn up?

:08:56.:08:57.

Will the care, if they get it in a care home, be safe?

:08:58.:09:00.

Will there be a nurse in a nursing home?

:09:01.:09:02.

These are such fundamental questions and it's unfair to expect older

:09:03.:09:05.

people to be facing them at their most vulnerable

:09:06.:09:07.

The Government says the poor care experienced by some families

:09:08.:09:13.

is completely unacceptable, and that as well as putting in more

:09:14.:09:16.

money, it will be consulting on how to play social care on a more secure

:09:17.:09:20.

How surprising are these findings? I don't think many people will that be

:09:21.:09:32.

that surprised if they work in the care sector, because we know that

:09:33.:09:36.

the number of older people needing support is increasing and it is

:09:37.:09:40.

worth saying there is an increase in the number of younger adults with

:09:41.:09:43.

disabilities who also need support. There is pressure from there. Adding

:09:44.:09:48.

to that pressure on the finances, enough money to pay for care. Those

:09:49.:09:53.

pressures are still there even though government money, extra

:09:54.:09:56.

government money, has been allocated, so that is creating

:09:57.:10:00.

problems. Whilst most of the care is good and most of the care homes are

:10:01.:10:05.

managing home care services under those circumstances, there is a

:10:06.:10:09.

large meant that if you have difficulty recruiting people and you

:10:10.:10:14.

have difficulty keeping people, especially nurses, the quality of

:10:15.:10:17.

your care is going to be affected that there is an argument. How

:10:18.:10:24.

fragile is this? Last autumn they said the social care sector was at a

:10:25.:10:27.

tipping point. They looked at a wider range of measures, but on

:10:28.:10:33.

quality they used that phrase, the chief inspector described it as

:10:34.:10:35.

fragile and precarious and what they are worried about is specially,

:10:36.:10:40.

those services which were good and now deteriorating. It is worth

:10:41.:10:45.

drawing out the fact that if you are the one person, who doesn't get the

:10:46.:10:49.

visit they expected and whose medication is wrong, you are in a

:10:50.:10:54.

dire situation and you may not be able to speak up for yourself.

:10:55.:10:56.

Thanks for joining us. An unemployed man from West Sussex

:10:57.:11:12.

who killed two of his former girlfriends five years apart has

:11:13.:11:15.

been sentenced to life imprisonment. Robert Trigg was convicted

:11:16.:11:17.

of the manslaughter of Caroline Devlin in 2006,

:11:18.:11:19.

and the murder of Susan Both women were found

:11:20.:11:21.

dead at their homes in Worthing after a night out

:11:22.:11:24.

drinking with Trigg. A convicted double killer, but even

:11:25.:11:30.

on his way to be sentenced Robert Trigg's arrogance and contempt was

:11:31.:11:32.

today made clear. They should be here, not me. His victims were

:11:33.:11:37.

Caroline Devlin and Susan Nicholson, both killed by Robert Trigg and he

:11:38.:11:44.

nearly got away with it. He claimed he had accidentally rolled over on

:11:45.:11:47.

to Susan Nicholson as they slept in their home in Worthing, but he never

:11:48.:11:52.

called 999 leaving it to a neighbour to talk to the operator as he lurks

:11:53.:11:57.

in the background. Could you ask him to tell you why he thinks it looks

:11:58.:12:03.

like she is dead? Why do you think she is dead? I think the

:12:04.:12:11.

suffocation. But Susan's elderly parents have used to accept it was

:12:12.:12:14.

an accident and hired their own pathologist who found Susan had in

:12:15.:12:18.

fact been suffocated by Robert Trigg and they say it has been a six-year

:12:19.:12:23.

fight for justice. It is a disgrace, really, the way we were treated,

:12:24.:12:27.

absolute disgrace. They treat it Susan as if she didn't matter. --

:12:28.:12:33.

treated. As if she was of no consequence. Five years earlier

:12:34.:12:37.

there were no suspicions either about the death of Caroline Devlin

:12:38.:12:40.

but she had also been killed by Trigg. The judge said he was

:12:41.:12:44.

responsible for these senseless and brutal deaths and jailed him for a

:12:45.:12:49.

minimum of 25 years and the judge also praised the women's families

:12:50.:12:52.

for what she called their quiet and patient behaviour. Sussex Police

:12:53.:12:58.

have now admitted that they made mistakes in the initial

:12:59.:13:02.

investigation. Sussex Police are very sorry that we didn't previously

:13:03.:13:07.

present those facts to the court but what they gave us was new evidence

:13:08.:13:12.

that we did not have at the time. Two deaths, five years apart, but no

:13:13.:13:16.

coincidence, and now the man responsible is beginning a life

:13:17.:13:17.

sentence. Duncan Kennedy, BBC news. President Trump will be at the

:13:18.:13:30.

summit of the G20 nations tomorrow where he and Vladimir Putin are

:13:31.:13:33.

expected to be holding their first face-to-face meeting.

:13:34.:13:37.

Our diplomatic correspondent James Robbins is there in Hamburg.

:13:38.:13:40.

There could be a cooler reception both in the summit and outside?

:13:41.:13:44.

I think it will be a pretty testing few days for President Trump. Here

:13:45.:13:51.

in Hamburg. I can't remember the build-up to one of these global

:13:52.:13:55.

summits where the atmosphere has been so fractured between the

:13:56.:13:58.

leaders. That is inevitable when you acknowledge that President Trump is

:13:59.:14:04.

shedding some of America's leadership role, talking about

:14:05.:14:09.

America first and moving away from a global rules -based system. His

:14:10.:14:12.

first test will be a meeting with Chancellor Angela Merkel, she's very

:14:13.:14:18.

angry with him, frankly, for America's decision to walk away from

:14:19.:14:23.

the Paris climate change agreement. She will insist to him that climate

:14:24.:14:27.

change remains one of her absolute priorities for this meeting, so that

:14:28.:14:30.

will be a testing start. And then reflect on what we have been hearing

:14:31.:14:35.

from Poland, tomorrow, President Trump will have his first ever

:14:36.:14:39.

encounter as president with Vladimir Putin and I think that will be the

:14:40.:14:43.

prizefight of this summit. I say that because President Trump has

:14:44.:14:48.

today been talking about Russia as being disruptive especially in the

:14:49.:14:54.

Ukraine and he has been at knowledge in more openly than ever before that

:14:55.:15:00.

Russia may have been responsible for intervention in the American

:15:01.:15:04.

elections. So that will be a real humdinger of a clash. James, many

:15:05.:15:06.

thanks. Donald Trump lashes out at both

:15:07.:15:10.

Russia and North Korea ahead Following in the footsteps of Gary

The BBC has found that more than 100 people in the UK have now been

:15:45.:15:47.

convicted of terrorism offences relating to Syria and Iraq.

:15:48.:15:52.

The Director of Public Prosecutions has warned that would-be extremists

:15:53.:15:56.

may try to carry out attacks in Britain if they're unable

:15:57.:15:58.

to travel abroad to join the Islamic State group.

:15:59.:16:01.

Our home affairs correspondent June Kelly reports.

:16:02.:16:06.

Over 100 people jailed for offences linked to so-called Islamic State.

:16:07.:16:13.

The oldest, a driving instructor of 63 from Luton.

:16:14.:16:17.

The youngest, a schoolboy, just 14 when he incited

:16:18.:16:21.

And a growing number of women and girls have also been drawn in.

:16:22.:16:30.

The terror attack on London Bridge, one of three Islamist-inspired

:16:31.:16:35.

Two of the men responsible are said to have wanted to go

:16:36.:16:40.

to Syria to join IS, but were unable to travel.

:16:41.:16:43.

They are among the rising ranks of thwarted foreign

:16:44.:16:46.

fighters, and the Director of Public Prosecutions

:16:47.:16:49.

told me that could increase the terrorist threat here.

:16:50.:16:52.

We need to be acutely aware that if people can't go to Syria,

:16:53.:16:57.

and we have seen this in some of the cases that we have

:16:58.:17:00.

prosecuted, they may plan an attack here, instead.

:17:01.:17:03.

Or they may do more to radicalise other people to attack.

:17:04.:17:08.

At this youth centre in east London they use activities like boxing

:17:09.:17:13.

to try to engage young people and fight the extremist ideology

:17:14.:17:18.

Here they have years of experience in tackling radicalisation head on,

:17:19.:17:24.

and there's concern that government attempts to clamp down

:17:25.:17:26.

on extremism could end up alienating Muslim communities.

:17:27.:17:31.

Going into communities, penetrating the wall of silence,

:17:32.:17:34.

having the credibility, having the trust -

:17:35.:17:36.

without the community trust, without the community engagement,

:17:37.:17:39.

we can't have conversations, we can't have effective programmes.

:17:40.:17:43.

But especially since the attacks in London and Manchester,

:17:44.:17:46.

there is a premium on community involvement, according to ministers.

:17:47.:17:50.

We have to work with the communities to deliver counter-terrorism.

:17:51.:17:53.

That's where we get information from.

:17:54.:17:55.

That's where we get diversions for young people if they're

:17:56.:17:59.

being groomed, so we are incredibly alert to those issues.

:18:00.:18:02.

We do make sure to remind people that it's really about safeguarding

:18:03.:18:08.

Some of the hundred plus convicted have now served their sentences

:18:09.:18:14.

On the battlefields of Syria and Iraq, IS may be in retreat,

:18:15.:18:20.

but support for its ideology shows no sign of diminishing.

:18:21.:18:24.

And you can have a look at our database on the BBC website.

:18:25.:18:32.

It's the most comprehensive public record of its kind.

:18:33.:18:34.

The chairman of the Iraq War Inquiry, Sir John Chilcot,

:18:35.:18:44.

has told the BBC that Tony Blair was "not straight with

:18:45.:18:47.

the nation" in the run-up to the war 14 years ago.

:18:48.:18:50.

Speaking a year after the report was published, Sir John said

:18:51.:18:52.

Mr Blair was "emotionally truthful" in the evidence he gave

:18:53.:18:56.

the inquiry, but relied on beliefs rather than facts.

:18:57.:18:59.

A spokesperson for Tony Blair said Sir John was clear that Mr Blair had

:19:00.:19:03.

Sir John Chilcot spoke to our political editor, Laura Kuenssberg.

:19:04.:19:11.

Do you feel the politicians you dealt with were as straight

:19:12.:19:13.

And I have to name names because these were public sessions.

:19:14.:19:29.

Tony Blair is always and ever an advocate.

:19:30.:19:31.

He makes the most persuasive case he can.

:19:32.:19:34.

Do you believe that Tony Blair was as straight

:19:35.:19:45.

with you and the public as he ought to have been?

:19:46.:19:49.

Can I slightly reword that to say, I think any Prime Minister taking

:19:50.:19:56.

a country into war has got to be straight with the nation

:19:57.:20:01.

and carry it, so far as possible, with him or her.

:20:02.:20:05.

I don't believe that was the case in the Iraq instance.

:20:06.:20:08.

Do you feel he gave you the fullest version of events?

:20:09.:20:15.

I hesitate to say this, rather, but I think from his

:20:16.:20:21.

perspective and standpoint, it was emotionally truthful.

:20:22.:20:26.

I think that came out also in his press conference

:20:27.:20:28.

I think he was under very great emotional pressure

:20:29.:20:35.

during those sessions, far more than the committee were.

:20:36.:20:38.

In that state of mind and mood, you fall back on your instinctive

:20:39.:20:49.

skills and reactions, I think.

:20:50.:20:55.

But he was relying, you suggest, therefore on emotion, not fact?

:20:56.:20:58.

Sir John Chilcot speaking to our political editor, Laura Kuenssberg.

:20:59.:21:10.

Let's speak to our assistant political editor, Norman Smith.

:21:11.:21:14.

Do you think we've learned anything new? When it comes to Iraq, nothing

:21:15.:21:20.

anyone said will probably change anyone's views, so supporters of Mr

:21:21.:21:25.

Blair this morning again insisted there were nothing in those comments

:21:26.:21:29.

to suggest that Mr Blair had misled or lied to the British public.

:21:30.:21:33.

Actually Sir John's comments were a bit more subtle than that. He's

:21:34.:21:37.

suggesting that he was not straight with the British public. What he

:21:38.:21:41.

means by that is once Mr Blair became convinced of the need for

:21:42.:21:44.

award and he sought to convince the British public, regardless of the

:21:45.:21:48.

doubts, the difficulties, any counter arguments. He sought to

:21:49.:21:51.

almost bypassed the checks and balances in the political system,

:21:52.:21:55.

didn't involve the Cabinet, he pushed to one side the legal advice,

:21:56.:22:01.

he sidelined the diplomats through his very, very close contact with

:22:02.:22:07.

George Bush, and in that sense Sir John Chilcot believes he wasn't

:22:08.:22:09.

straight with the British public because in his view he became an

:22:10.:22:14.

advocate for war. Norman, thank you, Norman Smith.

:22:15.:22:18.

To Lord's now for the cricket and England's first Test

:22:19.:22:20.

against South Africa - where the tourists have had a far

:22:21.:22:23.

England's new captain Joe Root won the toss, and,

:22:24.:22:26.

with promising conditions, elected to bat.

:22:27.:22:28.

But so far it hasn't gone the way he planned.

:22:29.:22:30.

Yes, England arrived here with such high hopes. Their first Test match

:22:31.:22:45.

in six months, and new captain, new optimism, but their batsmen have

:22:46.:22:50.

really struggled. 82-4 at lunch. It's been South Africa's morning.

:22:51.:22:54.

The first Test of the summer and of an era, of England's fans were

:22:55.:23:00.

making their entrance at Lord's so was their new captain, Joe Root, all

:23:01.:23:07.

smiles at his first task proved a successful one. Tales, England. Root

:23:08.:23:13.

opted to the back row. Alastair Cook, back in the ranks, soon back

:23:14.:23:17.

to the pavilion. Vernon Philander with South Africa's breakthrough,

:23:18.:23:21.

Cook gone for three. Moments later it got worse. Keaton Jennings

:23:22.:23:26.

adjudged LBW, but was it? Jennings didn't review it and replays showed

:23:27.:23:31.

it was missing. He could have survived. But England were two down.

:23:32.:23:36.

How they needed a captain's innings. Bruch emerging rather earlier than

:23:37.:23:40.

he'd have liked and the nerves were jittering. -- Joe Root emerging.

:23:41.:23:45.

Would he be caught? He should have been. An early let off and a rueful

:23:46.:23:50.

grin. There was no such reprieve for Gary Ballance, recalled to the team,

:23:51.:23:58.

trapped by Morne Morkel, England 39-3 and in a spot of bother. They

:23:59.:24:01.

needed to steady the ship and Root was rediscovering his composure,

:24:02.:24:04.

leading by example at last a smattering of boundaries. But with

:24:05.:24:08.

lunch inside another setback and another LBW, Jonny Bairstow gone for

:24:09.:24:13.

ten, for England, and warning which promised so much has prop Wood

:24:14.:24:17.

delivered only disappointed. -- disappointment.

:24:18.:24:23.

82-4 at lunch, England. Joe Root is still there on 33. He's been joined

:24:24.:24:28.

by vice captain Ben Stokes. A tough first morning for the new captain.

:24:29.:24:32.

England have some serious work to do this afternoon.

:24:33.:24:35.

Andy, many thanks. For the first time in 20 years,

:24:36.:24:37.

four British players are through to the third

:24:38.:24:40.

round of Wimbledon - Andy Murray, Johanna Konta,

:24:41.:24:42.

Heather Watson and Alijaz Bedene - and Kyle Edmunds is on centre court

:24:43.:24:44.

right now trying to become the fifth player in that group with victory

:24:45.:24:48.

over France's Gael Monfils. Our sports correspondent

:24:49.:24:51.

David Ornstein is at So often we get to this stage of

:24:52.:25:06.

Wimbledon, with all home expectation shouldered by Andy Murray but

:25:07.:25:09.

yesterday, that changed. At last he has some company.

:25:10.:25:14.

First it was Heather Watson. Then came Alijaz Bedene. Johanna Konta

:25:15.:25:27.

followed. And finally, Andy Murray. A day for British tennis to savour.

:25:28.:25:34.

It's obviously exciting for any tense fans in the country to have

:25:35.:25:40.

players going deep on, both the women's and the men's draw -- any

:25:41.:25:46.

tennis fans. It could get even better this afternoon when Kyle

:25:47.:25:49.

Edmund opens play on Centre Court against Gael Monfils, a huge

:25:50.:25:53.

occasion, a chance to cause a massive upset, but Kyle Edmund is

:25:54.:25:58.

refusing to get carried away. It's important not to get too high from

:25:59.:26:02.

the win and too low from the loss, it's nice to win but it's important

:26:03.:26:05.

not to get so emotionally attached to the event, it's not the be all

:26:06.:26:10.

and end all as much as you'd like to do well I'm sure if you asked lots

:26:11.:26:14.

of players you have to do your best, basically. Whether or not he wins

:26:15.:26:19.

today, this is the first time that four or more British singles players

:26:20.:26:23.

have reached round three of Wimbledon since 1997 and the first

:26:24.:26:26.

time two women have made it there since 1986. One of them was Jo

:26:27.:26:33.

Durie, and she welcomes the home home improvement after years of

:26:34.:26:36.

underachievement. It's nice to be talking about the Brits, not just

:26:37.:26:40.

winning one round but two or three rounds for a change. We've got the

:26:41.:26:44.

structure much better now in British tennis. Tennis is available to play

:26:45.:26:47.

for everybody will stop you can get out there. Let's inspire a few more

:26:48.:26:53.

people to come and maybe end up on centre court. Elsewhere on day four

:26:54.:26:58.

the women's top seed Angelique Kerber continues her bid, as do

:26:59.:27:01.

seven time champion Roger Federer and men's second seed Novak

:27:02.:27:06.

Djokovic. Some of the game's most established successful names and an

:27:07.:27:09.

example to the up and coming British contingent.

:27:10.:27:14.

Kyle Edmund and Gael Monfils are on serve in the first set on centre

:27:15.:27:20.

court. I'm delighted to be joined by Sam Smith, former British number

:27:21.:27:24.

one. Is this genuine success we are seeing from the Brits, genuine

:27:25.:27:28.

progress, or should we urge some caution? Winning makes everyone feel

:27:29.:27:32.

good. Of course they are not operating as Team GB, but they've

:27:33.:27:35.

all been very, very good players. They are all out there as

:27:36.:27:38.

individuals. They will push each other on. There is a great healthy

:27:39.:27:43.

rivalry between Jo Konta and Heather Watson to see who can make it into

:27:44.:27:47.

the second week. This is very good for British tennis, isn't it? Much

:27:48.:27:50.

of the public will want to know how far they can go in the tournament.

:27:51.:27:55.

There are so many good players out there. The women's side is more open

:27:56.:28:00.

than ever before. There's a great opportunity. But it's really

:28:01.:28:02.

important to remember even just winning one match of the Grand Slam,

:28:03.:28:06.

just to get here to come win a match, is incredibly difficult. You

:28:07.:28:10.

cannot look too far ahead. What I would say is Jo Konta is a genuine

:28:11.:28:15.

contender, Andy Murray is the defending champion, and full Alijaz

:28:16.:28:18.

Bedene and Kyle Edmund and Heather Watson, it's how far they can go,

:28:19.:28:22.

how far they can push into the second week and reassess from there.

:28:23.:28:27.

It's great. Thank you for your time, some. Kyle Edmund is on court now.

:28:28.:28:31.

He's trying to make it five Britons in the third round for the first

:28:32.:28:36.

time in two decades. Tomorrow will see Andy Murray back in action.

:28:37.:28:39.

Romelu Lukaku looks set to become the second biggest British

:28:40.:28:42.

transfer of all time, with a ?75 million move

:28:43.:28:44.

from Everton to Manchester United now on the cards.

:28:45.:28:47.

He'll be reunited with his former boss from Chelsea, Jose Mourinho.

:28:48.:28:51.

On the other side of Manchester, in the women's game,

:28:52.:28:54.

City's Toni Duggan has become the first English player

:28:55.:28:57.

since Gary Lineker in 1986 to move to Barcelona.

:28:58.:29:00.

She's been talking to our sports correspondent, Natalie Pirks.

:29:01.:29:09.

If you follow the women's game, you will be well aware of her name. A

:29:10.:29:16.

great header in will stop but now England striker Toni Duggan's talent

:29:17.:29:20.

has been recognised on a truly global scale. Barcelona, the biggest

:29:21.:29:24.

club in the world and the fact they even know my name is a massive

:29:25.:29:28.

honour. But to be going there to join them, to call it my club, to

:29:29.:29:33.

call it home, you know, I'm blown away by it. Barcelona doesn't tend

:29:34.:29:37.

to look to these shores for their players. Not since Gary Lineker in

:29:38.:29:43.

1986 has an English player signed for the Catalan giants. Duggan is

:29:44.:29:45.

ready to shoulder the responsibility. To be the best you

:29:46.:29:50.

have to do that sometimes. I'm not going there just to live there, just

:29:51.:29:54.

to see the city, I want to be successful. I want to make my name

:29:55.:29:58.

at this club. I believe I will. After playing for England at the

:29:59.:30:02.

women's euros this summer she jokes she'll focus on getting a new

:30:03.:30:08.

team-mates to understand her accent. Fortunately football is a universal

:30:09.:30:09.

language. Natalie Pirks, BBC News. The main theme is heat and humidity.

:30:10.:30:23.

There's a lot of sunshine around. Here's a weather watcher in

:30:24.:30:29.

Merseyside. A bit of rain and cloud there. There's some cumulus cloud

:30:30.:30:33.

bringing heavy downpours around the country. If we look at the satellite

:30:34.:30:37.

image we have more cloud towards the north-west. There's rain in

:30:38.:30:41.

Merseyside, down towards willing in Cambridgeshire, where the second

:30:42.:30:44.

Weather Watch picture comes from. Here we have some thunderstorms in

:30:45.:30:50.

the area. Some big threatening skies captured in Cambridgeshire. We'll

:30:51.:30:54.

continue to see that threat of some heavy showers and Sam Saunders --

:30:55.:30:59.

thunderstorms across East Anglia, in the East Midlands, north-east

:31:00.:31:01.

England. Elsewhere across England and Wales who are more likely to

:31:02.:31:04.

stay dry through the afternoon, so this is 4pm this afternoon for the

:31:05.:31:09.

south-west of Wales and England it's looking dry with some sunshine.

:31:10.:31:12.

Heading further north into the Midlands, that's where you are

:31:13.:31:16.

likely to catch a few sharp showers and thunderstorms. Not all others

:31:17.:31:19.

will see them. Where you do catch one you could see lying surface

:31:20.:31:22.

water. A few showers from northern England. Northern Ireland mostly

:31:23.:31:26.

dry, if fairly cloudy through the afternoon. Quite a bit of cloud in

:31:27.:31:29.

Scotland bringing a few spots of drizzly rain. As we head into the

:31:30.:31:34.

evening we'll keep that threat of heavy downpours, mainly across the

:31:35.:31:37.

East Midlands, eastern England. If you do catch one of these showers

:31:38.:31:41.

they could cause some disruption to travel because we're going to have a

:31:42.:31:44.

lot of standing water on the roads, surface spray and hail and lightning

:31:45.:31:49.

a hazard as we head into the evening. The showers across England

:31:50.:31:52.

and why do fade away fairly quickly. Many others becoming dry. There will

:31:53.:31:57.

be a bit of white patchy rain across Scotland and Northern Ireland

:31:58.:32:00.

tonight. Cloudy here. Muggy, temperatures holding up at 17-18

:32:01.:32:05.

towards the south. A fairly uncomfortable, sticky sort of light.

:32:06.:32:09.

As we start the day tomorrow, still some hot sunshine around. There will

:32:10.:32:13.

be more cloud filtering south across the country through the day,

:32:14.:32:15.

bringing a few spots of light rain. We lose the threat of the storms

:32:16.:32:22.

like we have today. 28-29 is in the London region tomorrow, but as you

:32:23.:32:25.

had north-west across the country it's that bit cooler, around

:32:26.:32:29.

17-18000 and Northern Ireland. Into the weekend we have the weeks front

:32:30.:32:33.

which is nudging further north as we head into Saturday. There could be

:32:34.:32:37.

an odd spot of light rain on the frontal system. That will divide the

:32:38.:32:42.

humid air in the South, still in the high 20s, slightly fresher

:32:43.:32:45.

conditions further north across the country. Throughout the weekend a

:32:46.:32:48.

lot of dry weather on the cards and we should see some sunshine and

:32:49.:32:51.

temperature still pretty warm for the time of year.

:32:52.:32:54.

A reminder of our main story this lunchtime.

:32:55.:33:00.

Donald Trump and the First Lady Melania Trump head off to the G20

:33:01.:33:07.

summit in Hamburg, saying goodbye to their hosts in Poland. That's all

:33:08.:33:15.

from the BBC News that one. It's goodbye from me and on BBC One we
