:00:16. > :00:17.of the World War I Battle of Passchendaele,

:00:18. > :00:19.commemorations are taking place in Belgium.

:00:20. > :00:21.This is Tyne Cot cemetery, most of those buried

:00:22. > :00:27.here died in the 3 months of fighting near Ypres.

:00:28. > :00:30.Members of the Royal Family and the Prime Minister

:00:31. > :00:33.to remember those who fought and died here in one

:00:34. > :00:35.of the bloodiest battles ever fought.

:00:36. > :00:43.The battle we know today as Passchendaele would last for over

:00:44. > :00:50.100 days. We remember it's not only for the rain that fell, the mud that

:00:51. > :00:56.weighed down the living and swallowed the dead, but also for the

:00:57. > :00:59.courage and bravery of the men who fought here.

:01:00. > :01:01.Four thousand guests have been invited to attend,

:01:02. > :01:03.among them descendants of those who fought and died,

:01:04. > :01:05.here today to honour their sacrifice.

:01:06. > :01:07.STUDIO: And in other news this lunchtime.

:01:08. > :01:09.Ministers insist they can deliver thousands more mental

:01:10. > :01:16.despite questions about whether it's feasible.

:01:17. > :01:23.Like all times, it will be challenging to deliver it but we are

:01:24. > :01:24.determined to hold true to our promise, to transform mental health

:01:25. > :01:29.services. BBC presenter Vanessa Feltz says

:01:30. > :01:31.she's upset and hurt suggesting she's well paid

:01:32. > :01:34.because she's Jewish. Cristiano Ronaldo gives his

:01:35. > :02:12.testimony as he faces Coming up in sport: England close in

:02:13. > :02:19.Good afternoon from Tyne Cot cemetery in Belgium,

:02:20. > :02:22.where commemorations have just taken place to mark the centenary

:02:23. > :02:24.of the start of the Battle of Passchendaele,

:02:25. > :02:26.it was one of the bloodiest of World War One.

:02:27. > :02:28.Around half a million Allied and German soldiers were killed,

:02:29. > :02:31.wounded or went missing in three months of fighting.

:02:32. > :02:36.As the battle raged, torrential rain fell,

:02:37. > :02:38.many of the soldiers simply drowned in the mud,

:02:39. > :02:45.This afternoon Prince Charles, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge

:02:46. > :02:48.have joined 4000 guests to remember the sacrifice made by so many

:02:49. > :02:51.in a battle that has come to symbolise the horror

:02:52. > :03:13.There are few more peaceful places than the gentle slope of Tyne Cot

:03:14. > :03:17.and today among the white headstones, families look back

:03:18. > :03:26.across the years, to another big push. At ten to four in the morning,

:03:27. > :03:34.less than five miles from here, thousands of men drawn from across

:03:35. > :03:40.Britain, France and the Commonwealth attacked German lines. The battle we

:03:41. > :03:47.know today as Passchendaele would last for over 100 days. We remember

:03:48. > :03:53.it is not only for the rain that fell, the mud that weighed down the

:03:54. > :04:02.living and swallowed the dead, but also for the courage and bravery of

:04:03. > :04:05.the men who fought here. Tyne Cot overlooks the rolling farmland,

:04:06. > :04:13.streams and woods that were once no man's land. A scar of liquid mud and

:04:14. > :04:17.stagnant, stinking craters. This rare film, held by the Australian

:04:18. > :04:20.national archive, gives a sense of the struggle to gain ground as more

:04:21. > :04:26.and more men were thrown into the attack.

:04:27. > :04:30.Bert Ferns was with the Second 6th Lancashire Fusiliers,

:04:31. > :04:43.He joined at 18, struggling up slimy duck boards.

:04:44. > :04:53.We were very often taking a quarter of an hour to move a few yards.

:04:54. > :04:55.Fellas were sliding off them, falling into shell holes.

:04:56. > :04:57.We got some out, I'm afraid there were some

:04:58. > :05:00.we could not get out, and the point was, was it worth

:05:01. > :05:22.Private Edward Michael Batten. D Company, 45th Battalion... Private

:05:23. > :05:27.James Munro, one South African infantry regimen. My

:05:28. > :05:38.great-great-grandfather... My great great uncle... Voices and stories

:05:39. > :05:43.from around the world, in an army that came to Ypres, men from distant

:05:44. > :05:49.corners of the Empire fought and died alongside each other. Bert

:05:50. > :05:54.began his attack here, decide the German bunker that now lies within

:05:55. > :05:58.Tyne Cot Cemetery. The Lancaster Fusiliers made their way uphill

:05:59. > :05:59.towards Passchendaele village, and a spot which Bert later said he would

:06:00. > :06:10.never forget. We came across, would have been

:06:11. > :06:13.about 100 yards square, of bodies. That had been caught

:06:14. > :06:30.in an artillery shrapnel attack. Tyne Cot may not see an event of

:06:31. > :06:34.this scale again, it has been a place of pilgrimage for a century,

:06:35. > :06:41.and it is likely to remain so for generations to come.

:06:42. > :06:44.Well the ceremony finished a short time ago,

:06:45. > :06:49.there was a flypast by the Belgian air force.

:06:50. > :06:51.The F16s flew in a missing man formation to honour

:06:52. > :07:05.died or went missing in northern Belgium.

:07:06. > :07:12.from the commonwealth war graves commission,

:07:13. > :07:17.who's been involved in organising the event.

:07:18. > :07:24.Incredibly moving ceremony that took place. Particularly reflections from

:07:25. > :07:27.soldiers on both sides, British and German soldiers, letters written

:07:28. > :07:32.home during the battle, particularly moving. The conditions they were

:07:33. > :07:36.fighting in as it began, 100 years ago, could not be more different

:07:37. > :07:41.than today, blue skies, sunshine, 100 years ago, heavens opened, and

:07:42. > :07:45.these fields were turned into mud. The first day of the battle, the

:07:46. > :07:50.artillery bombardment, 4.5 million shells destroyed the very delicate

:07:51. > :07:54.water management and drainage system. The mud defined the battle,

:07:55. > :07:59.not continue throughout the battle, in September and October the rain

:08:00. > :08:03.stopped, the ground dried up and the British were successful, causing

:08:04. > :08:08.huge casualties and a huge crisis of morale, then the rain returned, and

:08:09. > :08:14.not far from here, the village of Passchendaele came to some of the

:08:15. > :08:18.worse of World War I. Large numbers of descendants were here, watching

:08:19. > :08:22.the ceremonies, a big event for the Centenary, do you think this act of

:08:23. > :08:26.remembrance will continue in decades to come? I think it is very

:08:27. > :08:32.important, a very emotional moment, I moving occasion, for all of the

:08:33. > :08:35.rest of us. Also important to try to understand what happened, a

:08:36. > :08:40.complicated war, a complex war, it is important that alongside that

:08:41. > :08:41.emotion, we try to comprehend and understand, for me that is at the

:08:42. > :08:47.heart of true remembrance. Among the 4,000 people here this

:08:48. > :08:51.afternoon are 100 British teenagers brought to

:08:52. > :08:52.Belgium as volunteers Earlier I went into the cemetery

:08:53. > :09:02.to meet two of them. Morgan, what made you want to come

:09:03. > :09:05.here? At first, I thought this would be an amazing opportunity for young

:09:06. > :09:10.people to get involved but as I was making my research, I realised I had

:09:11. > :09:13.such a personal connection, not only to the war but all of my ancestors

:09:14. > :09:19.who fought in the war. Tell us about the role they played here. One of my

:09:20. > :09:23.grandmother's uncles, he fought in the Battle of Passchendaele, and

:09:24. > :09:28.died on the 26th of September, 1917. He survived a long time. Even what

:09:29. > :09:32.happened to so many of these men, it is difficult to imagine, standing

:09:33. > :09:37.here today, the battle started 100 years ago today, to imagine what

:09:38. > :09:40.those men went through. We have been lucky enough to have a few tours of

:09:41. > :09:44.cemeteries and the numbers are getting to us, we cannot get our

:09:45. > :09:49.head around them, something that has impacted on me, I am a similar age

:09:50. > :09:52.to a lot of the soldiers who fought, and 100 years ago this would have

:09:53. > :09:55.been me, this would have been asked fighting, it is important to keep

:09:56. > :10:00.young people involved. -- this would have been asked fighting. You came

:10:01. > :10:07.here and had a surprise when you discovered your own connection. I

:10:08. > :10:12.thought this would be an opportunity to meet old friends, make new

:10:13. > :10:15.friends, but when I began my research, but I found I had a

:10:16. > :10:20.relative, that was my great grandmother's cousin, and so it was

:10:21. > :10:26.really nice to find a connection with the event, before I had no

:10:27. > :10:30.idea. You have spent the past few days escorting some of the

:10:31. > :10:35.descendants of the people who fought here, around these events, what has

:10:36. > :10:38.that been like? It has been quite warming, hearing other people

:10:39. > :10:43.stories, I have my own story but it not compare to those I have heard,

:10:44. > :10:47.amazing how much time has been put into people's research, and hearing

:10:48. > :10:52.what they have come for. To be here to commemorate, it is amazing.

:10:53. > :10:58.People find it incredibly moving, there is a strong connection, you

:10:59. > :11:01.see your name, you spot an ancestor, poignant moment. Everybody has a

:11:02. > :11:05.connection with this whether they know it or not, somebody from their

:11:06. > :11:08.village, their town, a young person going out of their way to look for

:11:09. > :11:12.somebody to connect with in the war, I think it is something that

:11:13. > :11:16.everybody can connect to, and it bonds us all. Hopefully I am hoping

:11:17. > :11:20.that with all the cross generation work, we can work to not let

:11:21. > :11:23.something like this happen again. This is the Centenary, what happens

:11:24. > :11:28.next, it is your generation that must keep this alive. Especially

:11:29. > :11:32.with the involvement of the national citizen service, I hope that people

:11:33. > :11:34.can understand they are so vital to these commemorations, it is

:11:35. > :11:38.important to have all generations working together to ensure this does

:11:39. > :11:44.not happen again. Do you think it will be possible to keep people

:11:45. > :11:49.fascinated and remembering events like this. The amount of involvement

:11:50. > :11:53.we have had even 100 years after, it will continue for many more years to

:11:54. > :11:58.come, it is essential. Thank you very much, Max and Morgan.

:11:59. > :12:02.Two young teenagers whose ancestors were fighting near 100 years ago at

:12:03. > :12:07.the Battle of Passchendaele. We'll have more from

:12:08. > :12:10.Tyne Cot Cemetery later in the programme, now though,

:12:11. > :12:19.it's back to you Reeta. STUDIO: The government has pledged

:12:20. > :12:21.to recruit another 21,000 mental health workers in England

:12:22. > :12:24.over the next four years. The Health Secretary Jeremy Hunt

:12:25. > :12:27.says it's time to end the "historic imbalance" between mental

:12:28. > :12:28.and physical health services, and wants an extra one million

:12:29. > :12:31.people to be treated by 2021. The Royal College of Nursing says

:12:32. > :12:39.more money is needed to be able VOICEOVER: Underfunded and not

:12:40. > :12:43.prioritised, mental health care has suffered in recent years according

:12:44. > :12:46.to campaigners and charities, with patients often experiencing long

:12:47. > :12:51.wait for NHS treatment. The government says that is changing

:12:52. > :12:55.with new investment and an expansion of the mental health workforce in

:12:56. > :12:58.England. We have worked out exactly how me more doctors, nurses,

:12:59. > :13:03.therapists we need, we have worked out where we think we can get them

:13:04. > :13:08.from, and like all plans it will be challenging to deliver it but we are

:13:09. > :13:13.determined to hold true to our promise to transform mental health

:13:14. > :13:16.services. The plan involves an extra 21,000 mental health staff in

:13:17. > :13:19.England by the 2020 financial year, including children's services,

:13:20. > :13:25.adults talking therapies and crisis care. Official figures show that

:13:26. > :13:31.there was a fall in the number of mental health nurses of more than

:13:32. > :13:34.6600 between 2010 and 2016. The move has been welcomed by the Royal

:13:35. > :13:37.College of Nursing, though leaders are sceptical about what can be

:13:38. > :13:41.delivered. How are we going to do that in such a short timescale when

:13:42. > :13:45.other government policies are getting in the way of that. We

:13:46. > :13:50.already know we have one in ten posts in mental health vacant, we

:13:51. > :13:59.will fill those as well as putting additional nurses in.

:14:00. > :14:03.Mental health campaigners say it is a step in the right direction.

:14:04. > :14:08.Because mental health services have been underfunded for such a long

:14:09. > :14:12.time, this initiative will not help us to achieve the parity of esteem

:14:13. > :14:15.that so many of us want, but it will set the foundations to be able to

:14:16. > :14:21.look forward to a future where mental health is treated on an equal

:14:22. > :14:24.footing to physical health. Labour argued that by keeping the lid on

:14:25. > :14:29.public sector pay, the Government was making it harder for the NHS to

:14:30. > :14:35.recruit and retain staff. To expect people going to flock when there is

:14:36. > :14:39.nothing being done about pay, where there are real workload and morale

:14:40. > :14:43.problems, it is just not realistic. A key part of the Government's plan

:14:44. > :14:47.is to encourage psychiatrists and mental health nurses who have left

:14:48. > :14:49.the NHS to return. Whether that can be achieved is far from clear.

:14:50. > :15:02.There are many uncertainties over it. A number of NHS trusts in

:15:03. > :15:05.England have said it is difficult to recruit staff right now. So this

:15:06. > :15:09.policy is extremely ambitious. It has also been pointed out that in

:15:10. > :15:13.England, new nurse trainees from September will have to start paying

:15:14. > :15:18.their own tuition fees and they will have to borrow the money, and there

:15:19. > :15:23.has been a decline in application forms for that position. There is a

:15:24. > :15:27.public sector pay cap, 1% pay which many would argue has deterred people

:15:28. > :15:31.from going into jobs like this and which has led to some people

:15:32. > :15:36.rethink, a big debate going on about that in government. Whether that is

:15:37. > :15:40.changed or not. So a number in the health world saying, yes, this is a

:15:41. > :15:43.very welcome move, but it is an aspiration and it has to be

:15:44. > :15:51.delivered before anyone can say it is going to make a huge difference.

:15:52. > :15:53.The Governor will say in the past, money has been promised, but no

:15:54. > :15:59.proper workforce planning has gone ahead. This time, it is different,

:16:00. > :16:02.it has been given the right parity. But it is not new money, it is

:16:03. > :16:08.already in the NHS England budget and whether it does result in 1,000

:16:09. > :16:10.new posts by 2020 is highly uncertain as things stand now. Thank

:16:11. > :16:20.you. The Prime Minister's spokesperson

:16:21. > :16:25.has insisted the free movement of people will end when the leaves the

:16:26. > :16:30.European Union. Downing Street said it was wrong to speculate on the

:16:31. > :16:34.sort of immigration system which would need to be permitted after

:16:35. > :16:37.Brexit. Norman Smith is at Westminster, and there are so many

:16:38. > :16:42.different messages coming out of government, what is going on. There

:16:43. > :16:47.has been a veritable hubbub of rival ministers setting out their

:16:48. > :16:50.different takes on Brexit, with former Remain ministers the loudest,

:16:51. > :16:55.with the Chancellor saying there may need to be a three-year transitional

:16:56. > :16:59.period after we leave in March 2019, the Home Secretary saying EU

:17:00. > :17:05.migrants might still be able to come for a period of two years as long as

:17:06. > :17:11.they register, and you sense Downing Street has said, in of! Stop the

:17:12. > :17:14.bickering! With the Prime Minister's spokesperson saying the plan remains

:17:15. > :17:18.as set out by Theresa May at the start of the year, freedom of

:17:19. > :17:22.movement will end when we read. It is not going to continue in all but

:17:23. > :17:26.name, and we will not have an off-the-shelf trade deal keeping us

:17:27. > :17:31.in the single market. It looks like an attempt by Number 10 to reassert

:17:32. > :17:32.control. The real question is whether ministers pay heed. Norman,

:17:33. > :17:35.thank you. Russia's President Putin has ordered

:17:36. > :17:38.that hundreds of staff working for the US diplomatic service

:17:39. > :17:40.in the country must The move comes after the US

:17:41. > :17:48.Congress imposed tough Washington has branded the decision

:17:49. > :17:56."regrettable and uncalled for". Several people have been killed

:17:57. > :17:58.in clashes in Venezuela during the country's controversial

:17:59. > :18:02.election. President Nicolas Maduro

:18:03. > :18:04.has claimed victory - calling it the biggest vote ever

:18:05. > :18:06.for the revolution. He wants to put in place

:18:07. > :18:08.a new constituent assembly, with powers to rewrite

:18:09. > :18:10.the constitution. The opposition boycotted

:18:11. > :18:12.the vote and at least ten people died in clashes

:18:13. > :18:15.between police and protesters. Will Grant is in

:18:16. > :18:20.the capital, Caracas. The election appears only to have

:18:21. > :18:32.added to Venezuela's problems? That is right, this was the

:18:33. > :18:39.bloodiest election day in living memory. In Venezuela. And as you

:18:40. > :18:46.say, it is completely compounded existing problems. The Government

:18:47. > :18:51.says around 41.5% of the electorate turned out to vote for them. And

:18:52. > :18:54.they are taking that as a resounding victory. But most Venezuelans, I

:18:55. > :18:58.think not watched in disbelief when that result was announced. They

:18:59. > :19:05.simply do not believe that many people turned out in support of the

:19:06. > :19:08.Government, given the disillusionment, the anger, the

:19:09. > :19:16.frustration on the streets, the long queues for basic foods and the

:19:17. > :19:20.violence. Nicolas Maduro have has a serious problem in terms of the

:19:21. > :19:21.credibility of the vote and of governing Venezuela, moving forward.

:19:22. > :19:27.Thank you. Remembering the fallen -

:19:28. > :19:31.100 years after the start of the World War I battle

:19:32. > :19:33.of Passchendaele, commemorations South Africa clinging on as England

:19:34. > :19:52.chase victory at The Oval. Coming up in Sport: It's

:19:53. > :19:54.straight back to training for England's women,

:19:55. > :19:57.after an historic win over France puts them through to the semifinals

:19:58. > :20:06.of the European Championship. One of the world's highest-paid

:20:07. > :20:08.sports stars, Cristiano Ronaldo, has appeared in court in Spain,

:20:09. > :20:10.accused of defrauding the authorities of millions

:20:11. > :20:13.of pounds in tax. Prosecutors say the Real Madrid

:20:14. > :20:17.star used a company Ronaldo has allegedly evaded

:20:18. > :20:21.paying more than ?13 His earnings last year

:20:22. > :20:25.amounted to ?72 million - which included his salary,

:20:26. > :20:29.bonuses and endorsements. Ronaldo has denied the allegations,

:20:30. > :20:32.saying in a previous statement Let's go live now to Madrid

:20:33. > :20:51.and to our sports news There has been quite a bit of drama

:20:52. > :20:55.outside the courtroom at the very least. Inside, it was a closed

:20:56. > :21:00.session, Cristiano Ronaldo appearing before judges, who will decide if in

:21:01. > :21:05.due course these allegations will proceed to a full trial, we will

:21:06. > :21:11.note that in due course. But he arrived via a side door and he did

:21:12. > :21:15.not go through the waiting media. But his employer Real Madrid, an

:21:16. > :21:19.employer who are quite worried that perhaps Ronaldo will leave because

:21:20. > :21:22.the player is very angry over these allegations, he said indeed, he

:21:23. > :21:27.would leave Spain, such was the anger about the allegations. Real

:21:28. > :21:30.Madrid put on a big show and they brought in a sound system and said

:21:31. > :21:34.Ronaldo would be addressing the world's media when he finished,

:21:35. > :21:38.giving testimony, and so we waited. But a lawyer for him appeared and

:21:39. > :21:43.said he had gone home and he would not be appearing here today, read

:21:44. > :21:47.into that what you will, a fine of ?22 million awaits him and

:21:48. > :21:52.potentially a three-year jail term, theoretically, it would be difficult

:21:57. > :22:00.So no word from Ronaldo today, he has gone away and we wait to see if

:22:01. > :22:04.this tax case will proceed into a full trial. Richard, thank you.

:22:13. > :22:15.Patients at 40 GP surgeries in Hackney, in London,

:22:18. > :22:19.The research, by two London universities,

:22:31. > :22:33.The BBC presenter Vanessa Feltz has said she was "extremely upset"

:22:34. > :22:35.by a Sunday Times column, which suggested she earned a high

:22:36. > :22:42.salary at the corporation because she was Jewish.

:22:43. > :22:44.She described the piece, written by Kevin Myers,

:22:45. > :22:45.as "so obviously racist, it's surprisingly hurtful".

:22:46. > :22:47.Our media editor, Amol Rajan, is here.

:22:48. > :22:59.Yesterday, in the Irish edition of the Sunday Times, there was a call

:23:00. > :23:04.by a controversial list by somebody who is a regular contributor to the

:23:05. > :23:08.Sunday edition of the Irish Times, Kevin Myers, and he wrote how BBC

:23:09. > :23:17.stars are paid and in that list, Vanessa Feltz and Claudia Winkleman,

:23:18. > :23:20.who are Jewish, were reported. Kevin Myers said they were paid that much,

:23:21. > :23:25.he implied it was because they were Jewish and he said Jewish were not

:23:26. > :23:29.known for having lower salaries and is demanding less money. He said

:23:30. > :23:33.these things about how men deserve to be paid more because they are

:23:34. > :23:37.seldom found to be pregnant. It was intellectually incoherent and the

:23:38. > :23:40.question people would ask is how this got through. The usual process,

:23:41. > :23:45.I know this from a daisy newspapers, is the editor on the desk says, what

:23:46. > :23:49.do you think about writing? The columnist writes it and you check it

:23:50. > :23:53.with a headline to your editor. There is a question about how the

:23:54. > :23:59.Irish edition allowed a column that was anti-Semitic and misogynistic to

:24:00. > :24:01.make it onto the page. We can hear what Vanessa Feltz had to say right

:24:02. > :24:01.now. When you write something,

:24:02. > :24:05.it's read by the sub-editor... It's usually read

:24:06. > :24:09.by whoever it is... In the old days, it was

:24:10. > :24:11.setting to print but, And then it's read by,

:24:12. > :24:18.supposedly read by the legal It's not like you just write it

:24:19. > :24:22.and the next minute, So I said I just couldn't understand

:24:23. > :24:29.how all those layers of command had allowed something so blatantly

:24:30. > :24:35.racist to be put in the paper. What is likely to happen now? I have

:24:36. > :24:37.spoken to people at the Sunday Times and News International and they said

:24:38. > :24:40.Kevin Myers is no longer going to write for the Irish edition of the

:24:41. > :24:44.Sunday Times and I would be amazed if he ever writes for a News

:24:45. > :24:46.International, the owners of the Sunday Times, if he ever writes for

:24:47. > :24:49.their publications again. Many thanks.

:24:50. > :24:51.It's day five of the third test, and England's

:24:52. > :25:03.The pressure on the visitors intensified after Toby Roland-Jones

:25:04. > :25:05.took two wickets in quick succession.

:25:06. > :25:06.South Africa are trailing by 320 runs.

:25:07. > :25:08.Our sports correspondent, Joe Wilson, is at

:25:09. > :25:14.Yes, England came into this Test match looking for some answers after

:25:15. > :25:18.a heavy defeat in the last Test match. They picked three new

:25:19. > :25:21.players. They are here in a dominant position on Monday afternoon,

:25:22. > :25:26.starting the day needing six wickets, South Africa needing to bat

:25:27. > :25:30.out the day for a draw. You could forget about the school, unless it

:25:31. > :25:36.was a ?20 note. ?20 got you for the kids, ?1, this

:25:37. > :25:42.way, please. It's certainly tempted some, it created a queue, the very

:25:43. > :25:49.best of test cricket was on offer. South Africa could not rely on the

:25:50. > :25:52.weather. Is that a blue sky? Nobody holds up placards celebrating stoic

:25:53. > :25:57.defence, but that is what the situation demanded. Dean Elgar

:25:58. > :26:02.batting, do not show them you are hurting! Infant had not taken a

:26:03. > :26:07.wicket, in Ken Toby Roland-Jones, the man who makes things happen, the

:26:08. > :26:16.umpires said no. Inman said review, inspired decision. Bavuma was gone,

:26:17. > :26:21.he faced 97 balls. Philander faced one. Now Toby Roland-Jones on his

:26:22. > :26:28.debut going both barrels for the hat-trick. It did not carry! Very

:26:29. > :26:36.nearly! If it was a bruising fight, Dean Elgar was still fighting, he

:26:37. > :26:41.reached 100. England is needed is to be patient as well, remember that

:26:42. > :26:43.runs do not matter. South Africa's victory target was purely

:26:44. > :26:48.theoretical. What counted was getting the batsmen out and Elgar

:26:49. > :26:54.was playing like a man who saw life after lunch. By the very last ball

:26:55. > :27:01.before the break, Chris Morris went. Three more to take for England.

:27:02. > :27:05.And shortly, South Africa resume in the second innings on 205-7, is

:27:06. > :27:10.there any chance of the rain coming to their rescue the to frustrate

:27:11. > :27:11.England? Not where I am standing, it does not look like it.

:27:12. > :27:12.Thank you. The person who can answer that is

:27:13. > :27:23.with me now. This was the view in Kent from a

:27:24. > :27:30.weather watcher, patchy cloud in the distance. But this was the lovely

:27:31. > :27:34.double rain will captured in Wales and you need rain to have a rain

:27:35. > :27:38.will. And we have showers and some sunshine. Midweek, wetter weather

:27:39. > :27:43.spreading across the country. Then it turns breezy as we return to

:27:44. > :27:47.sunshine and showers. Low pressure to the North West of the UK. That is

:27:48. > :27:52.driving the weather. The closer you are 2% of the low pressure, that is

:27:53. > :27:55.where the showers will be at their heaviest, so wettest in Scotland,

:27:56. > :28:01.Northern Ireland, some thunder and few showers in the South East.

:28:02. > :28:05.Largely dry here. Further North and West, rumbles of thunder and hale

:28:06. > :28:09.mixed in with showers, but further spells of sunshine and temperatures

:28:10. > :28:13.in the upper teens. Similar in Northern England. Sunny spells,

:28:14. > :28:20.heavy showers. Across Wales and the scattered showers, like flea

:28:21. > :28:24.falling. Few showers across the East Anglia and the South East and the

:28:25. > :28:30.England -- East Midlands. Very pleasant outside in spite of the

:28:31. > :28:34.breeze. At The Oval, it should stay dry with patchy cloud and sunshine,

:28:35. > :28:38.temperatures in the low 20s, with a bit of a breeze. But a dry

:28:39. > :28:42.afternoon. Through the evening, showers around in the North and

:28:43. > :28:46.West, some heavy. But they fade away for many central and eastern areas.

:28:47. > :28:52.It will turn chilly in rural areas by the end of the night. Major towns

:28:53. > :28:57.and cities around ten, 14 degrees. Dipping into single figures in rural

:28:58. > :29:02.areas. A chilly start for some but a bright spot --. For many. Across the

:29:03. > :29:04.North and West, showers around and a chance of hale and thunder and a

:29:05. > :29:10.higher chance of showers in the South East. The far South East

:29:11. > :29:16.should stay dry with showers in London. 22, 20 three degrees.

:29:17. > :29:21.Tuesday night and Wednesday, into the Atlantic, we have this weather

:29:22. > :29:25.system. This brings a breeze. You can see the isobars. And it will

:29:26. > :29:29.bring some rain. On Wednesday, the rain is on the south-west of

:29:30. > :29:33.England, Wales and Northern Ireland, making steady progress North and

:29:34. > :29:39.East. The North East staying dry is to longest. The rain mostly out of

:29:40. > :29:43.the way on Thursday and back into breezy conditions with a mixture of

:29:44. > :29:44.sunny spells and scattered showers, and temperatures similar to what

:29:45. > :29:51.they are at the moment. Let's return now to Tyne Cot

:29:52. > :29:54.Cemetery in Belgium where, 100 years on from the Battle

:29:55. > :29:56.of Passchendaele, the Prime Minister and members of the Royal Family have

:29:57. > :30:09.joined relatives of those who fought There were many of the descendants

:30:10. > :30:11.of those who fought at the Battle of Passchendaele today.

:30:12. > :30:14.Among them, the former England rugby player Lewis Moody.

:30:15. > :30:24.It was only recently you discovered one of your ancestors fought and

:30:25. > :30:28.died here. Yes, I was doing work with the RFU on England rugby

:30:29. > :30:34.players who died and my mum text to say one of our relatives is buried

:30:35. > :30:38.at Tyne cut and I thought we would like to know that. I was stood here

:30:39. > :30:42.at Tyne cut at the time and I had never heard his name mentioned and I

:30:43. > :30:48.was able to find his name on the memorial at the back, which is on

:30:49. > :30:51.the unknowns. It was incredibly moving. And it takes you by complete

:30:52. > :30:54.surprise emotionally when you see this place and when you find a

:30:55. > :30:58.relative. It was your great-great-uncle? And he fought at

:30:59. > :31:04.the Battle of the Somme and he survived almost the entire Battle of

:31:05. > :31:08.Passchendaele. Yes, he joined in 1915 and he went through all those

:31:09. > :31:13.battles and the major one at the Battle of the Somme and he got here

:31:14. > :31:18.to Passchendaele and died four days before the battle finished. He also

:31:19. > :31:22.lost two brothers, Sydney and Albert, one was torpedoed any troop

:31:23. > :31:27.ship on his way to Malta. So coming here to pay respects was something I

:31:28. > :31:31.felt I had to do. 100 years pass is really quite quickly and it does not

:31:32. > :31:36.feel that long ago when you see the names you are connected to. What was

:31:37. > :31:41.it like in the cemetery during the service today? It was incredibly

:31:42. > :31:45.peaceful, what I find whenever you come to Tyne Cot and during that

:31:46. > :31:49.ceremony was held the sadness and sorrow creeps up without you being

:31:50. > :31:54.prepared for it. And you are restraining the tears. And hearing

:31:55. > :32:01.stories from the various people who spoke about the Canadian infantry,

:32:02. > :32:04.the medical corps and the stories and the hardship and the brutality

:32:05. > :32:08.they had to go through here, it brings it back. And they were all

:32:09. > :32:12.normal people from the privates to the Lieutenant Colonel, to the

:32:13. > :32:16.generals, they fought and died and they will be remembered with the

:32:17. > :32:17.same gravestones. So young. Lewis Moody, thank you very much.

:32:18. > :32:19.Pleasure. In a moment on BBC One,

:32:20. > :32:21.we'll join the BBC's News But first, we'll leave you with some

:32:22. > :32:25.of the moving images from the service to mark

:32:26. > :32:46.the Passchendaele Centenary. My great-grandfather remarked, I

:32:47. > :32:51.have many times as myself whether there can be more potent advocates

:32:52. > :32:59.of peace upon Earth through the years to come than this must

:33:00. > :33:04.multitude of silent witnesses to the desolation of war.
