Breaking the debt deadlock, America's politicians prepare to | :00:06. | :00:12. | |
vote on a deal. After weeks of wrangling, the president announces | :00:12. | :00:15. | |
a last minute plan to support the world's biggest economy. It will | :00:15. | :00:19. | |
allow us to avoid default, and end the crisis that Washington imposed | :00:19. | :00:24. | |
on the rest of America. Facing up to an impoverished old | :00:24. | :00:28. | |
age, a warning that private pensions need an urgent overhaul. | :00:28. | :00:33. | |
It is a wake-up call for the industry, saying you have to devise | :00:33. | :00:36. | |
a trust where the system, which shares the risk, which is | :00:36. | :00:41. | |
transparent, and low-cost -- a trustworthy system. | :00:41. | :00:46. | |

Good evening and welcome to the BBC News at Six. After weeks of | :01:26. | :01:30. | |
wrangling, arguments and uncertainty, America's politicians | :01:30. | :01:34. | |
are poised to night to vote on a deal to stop the country | :01:34. | :01:39. | |
potentially defaulting on its debts. The last minute plan, thrashed out | :01:39. | :01:42. | |
between President Obama and party leaders, would raise the country's | :01:42. | :01:47. | |
debt ceiling by 2.4 trillion dollars. It also includes the same | :01:47. | :01:50. | |
amount in spending cuts. The President described the last few | :01:51. | :01:55. | |
weeks as messy, but urged everyone to back the deal. There are | :01:55. | :01:58. | |
objections on both sides, with the plan still needing approval in the | :01:58. | :02:03. | |
US Congress. Paul Adams has the latest and his piece contains flash | :02:03. | :02:08. | |
photography. Another day of frenetic activity on | :02:08. | :02:12. | |
Capitol Hill. Lawmakers, gathering to hear exactly what their leaders | :02:12. | :02:16. | |
have agreed to, and give their verdict. Last night, after weeks of | :02:16. | :02:20. | |
uncertainty and rancour, the President said the talking was over. | :02:20. | :02:24. | |
I want to announce that the leaders of both parties, in both chambers, | :02:24. | :02:28. | |
have reached an agreement that will reduce the deficit and avoid | :02:28. | :02:32. | |
default. A default that would have had a devastating effect on our | :02:32. | :02:37. | |
economy. What do we know about the deal on the table? It sets a new | :02:37. | :02:42. | |
debt ceiling of 16.7 trillion dollars. It says future government | :02:42. | :02:47. | |
sending should be cut by around one trillion dollars. And it | :02:47. | :02:49. | |
establishes a congressional committee to come up with even | :02:49. | :02:53. | |
deeper cuts in the future. The vice-president, Joe Biden, was in | :02:53. | :02:58. | |
Congress to help seal the deal. Unwilling to sound too confident. | :02:58. | :03:02. | |
don't want to be rude... There is plenty for everyone to dislike | :03:02. | :03:08. | |
about the plan. The top Democrat in the Senate is holding his nose. | :03:08. | :03:14. | |
one got what they wanted, everyone had to give something up. People on | :03:14. | :03:17. | |
the right are upset, people on the left are upset, people in the | :03:17. | :03:21. | |
middle are upset, it was a compromise. On Wall Street, which | :03:21. | :03:24. | |
never really doubted that a deal will be done, markets rose this | :03:25. | :03:29. | |
morning. The latest dismal US manufacturing used then sent them | :03:29. | :03:34. | |
down again. This has been a bruising, ugly fight -- | :03:34. | :03:38. | |
manufacturing use. It has eroded public faith in Congress. The deal, | :03:38. | :03:45. | |
if it passes, helps to stop the rot but underlying it debates about the | :03:45. | :03:51. | |
strength of government rage on. There is a deal, but plenty of hard | :03:51. | :03:55. | |
talking ahead to. That's right. The big guns are on Capitol Hill, | :03:55. | :03:59. | |
trying to make sure this deal is finally sealed. There is plenty in | :04:00. | :04:03. | |
it for people to get their teeth into. We are likely to hear some | :04:03. | :04:08. | |
heated rhetoric, even as the votes get under way. We think the House | :04:08. | :04:15. | |
of Representatives will go first. The bottom line is, it is not until | :04:15. | :04:20. | |
you see those votes actually cast and the bill go to the President's | :04:20. | :04:23. | |
desk for signing, that you will know this is over. That is just | :04:23. | :04:27. | |
getting through this temporary crisis. The underlying debates go | :04:27. | :04:31. | |
on. This may have looked foolish and petty at times, but there is | :04:32. | :04:35. | |
some really fundamental political and philosophical difference is at | :04:35. | :04:39. | |
stake. To what extent should government involve itself in trying | :04:39. | :04:42. | |
to lift the country out of recession? How much should | :04:42. | :04:45. | |
taxpayers be expected to help? Frankly, what should be the proper | :04:45. | :04:50. | |
size and function of government? I think those debates will rage on. | :04:50. | :04:55. | |
What has happened is the Republicans, and specifically the | :04:55. | :04:59. | |
Conservative Tea Party wing of the Republican Party, have used this | :04:59. | :05:03. | |
debt ceiling a fair to try to reshape the nature of the political | :05:03. | :05:08. | |
debate here in Washington. And to a larger degree, I think they have | :05:08. | :05:12. | |
succeeded. The question is, in doing so, have they made this city | :05:12. | :05:15. | |
even less popular than it already was? | :05:15. | :05:20. | |
OK, thank you. Millions of people face a bleak old | :05:20. | :05:23. | |
age, because their pensions have been nowhere near enough for them | :05:23. | :05:28. | |
to live on when they stop working. A review of private sector pensions | :05:28. | :05:31. | |
commissioned by part of the industry itself says workers must | :05:31. | :05:35. | |
get a better deal from pension funds if they are to save enough | :05:35. | :05:40. | |
for their retirement. The chair of the commission, Lord McFall, said | :05:40. | :05:44. | |
schemes were too complex, costly and inefficient. | :05:44. | :05:48. | |
14 million people who work in the private sector are not saving for | :05:48. | :05:52. | |
their old age, because they find the pensions system too difficult | :05:52. | :05:56. | |
understand, and they don't believe they will benefit from the scheme | :05:56. | :06:01. | |
when they retire. This report warns of a bleak dawn in the years ahead, | :06:01. | :06:05. | |
with a generation of retirees who will be unable to adequately exist | :06:05. | :06:09. | |
when they stop working. It is a wake-up call for consumers, as | :06:09. | :06:14. | |
saying to them, if you don't save, you are going to face that | :06:14. | :06:17. | |
impoverished retirement. It is a wake-up call to the industry, | :06:17. | :06:23. | |
saying you have to desires -- devise a trustworthy system which | :06:23. | :06:30. | |
shares the rescanned is low cost. John Tate his retirement plans very | :06:30. | :06:37. | |
seriously -- John takes his retirement plans very seriously. He | :06:37. | :06:40. | |
has do manage his pension on a regular basis. It is not | :06:40. | :06:44. | |
straightforward. You have to work out what you need and what you | :06:44. | :06:48. | |
don't. I have spent quite a lot of time looking into it and trying to | :06:48. | :06:51. | |
work it out for myself, but I think most people just leave it for | :06:51. | :06:55. | |
another year. The pensions commission has called for a less | :06:55. | :07:00. | |
complex system. Lower charges, and a government cap on costs as part | :07:00. | :07:04. | |
of wide ranging proposals. The report says people need to feel | :07:04. | :07:09. | |
they get value for money when investing in a pension scheme, or | :07:09. | :07:13. | |
they won't bother saving for their retirement. Instead that they will | :07:13. | :07:17. | |
spend today, ignore tomorrow and end up scraping by in old age. | :07:17. | :07:22. | |
Major changes aimed at forcing people to save come in next year. | :07:22. | :07:25. | |
Compulsory enrolment will mean millions of workers will | :07:25. | :07:29. | |
automatically have a pension. People in their 30s and 40s, it | :07:29. | :07:32. | |
will be decades before they retire. We need to get people saving much | :07:32. | :07:36. | |
younger than in the past. Even a small amount of saving early in | :07:36. | :07:40. | |
life builds up to a decent pension later in life. The report | :07:40. | :07:44. | |
reinforces much of what we already know. People must save more for | :07:44. | :07:48. | |
their retirement. The strongest criticism is aimed at the pensions | :07:48. | :07:54. | |
industry, claiming charges are too high, and most tellingly, it says, | :07:54. | :07:58. | |
trust in the pensions industry is low. | :07:58. | :08:03. | |
Britain's largest bank, HSBC, has warned it will be shedding another | :08:03. | :08:07. | |
25,000 jobs worldwide, as it pulls out of countries where it is | :08:07. | :08:11. | |
struggling to compete. For now, the bank is not planning any more UK | :08:11. | :08:16. | |
job cuts be on those it has already announced. Today, HSBC announced a | :08:16. | :08:20. | |
surprise rise in its profits for the first half of the year. It is | :08:20. | :08:24. | |
the first of a string of well-known high-street banks to announce their | :08:24. | :08:29. | |
earnings. HSBC may be coping with the crisis | :08:29. | :08:32. | |
better than some rivals, but it is still unpicking its old way of | :08:32. | :08:38. | |
working, moving out of 20 countries to save billions and boost earnings. | :08:38. | :08:42. | |
HSBC made �7 billion in the last six months, they figure which | :08:42. | :08:47. | |
surprised the City and pushed up the bank's shares. Banking in | :08:47. | :08:51. | |
Britain by made an �843 million contribution, with earnings up | :08:51. | :08:55. | |
almost a third from new business, mortgage lending and continuing | :08:55. | :09:00. | |
cost-cutting. HSBC wants to be more effective and more efficient. That | :09:00. | :09:06. | |
is where they are going to wards. Do more with less. Less people, | :09:06. | :09:09. | |
making sure there are less interactions. They need to make | :09:09. | :09:14. | |
every transaction mean more than it did before. Jobs continue to go, | :09:14. | :09:18. | |
even though the bank is back in the black. The next round of | :09:18. | :09:23. | |
redundancies will see 25,000 forced to leave over three years, one in | :09:23. | :09:28. | |
10 of the existing global workforce. Staff in the UK will be relieved | :09:28. | :09:32. | |
that for now, there are no new job losses alongside 700 already | :09:32. | :09:37. | |
announced. The bank is building its business in Asia and Latin America. | :09:37. | :09:42. | |
That strategy is already producing higher profits, of the kind | :09:42. | :09:47. | |
Barclays, Lloyds and the Royal Bank of Scotland may not all match, when | :09:47. | :09:51. | |
they announce earnings in the next few days. With banks still blamed | :09:51. | :09:57. | |
by many for the risky lending that brought financial chaos, are | :09:57. | :10:01. | |
banking job losses that bad for the economy? Traditionally, banks | :10:01. | :10:05. | |
cutting jobs is a sign that business generally is at the top of | :10:05. | :10:08. | |
what we call the business cycle, that is the what economists used | :10:08. | :10:13. | |
for the cycle over which companies hire and fire people. It is a bad | :10:13. | :10:16. | |
sign we are getting to the top of that, because it suggests company | :10:16. | :10:19. | |
profits may be close to peaking. We have been counting on improving | :10:19. | :10:23. | |
corporate profits to keep the economy motoring, at a time when | :10:23. | :10:28. | |
public spending is being reduced. HSBC adds that it is on track to | :10:28. | :10:32. | |
meet its promises to the government, which include extending lending to | :10:32. | :10:40. | |
It is a sign that it may take years for confidence and the bank's | :10:40. | :10:44. | |
earnings to fully recover. Nurse, Rebecca Leighton, has | :10:44. | :10:48. | |
appeared in court in relation to the deaths of a number of patients | :10:48. | :10:51. | |
at Stepping Hill Hospital in Stockport. She appeared by video | :10:51. | :10:56. | |
link at Manchester Crown Court, and spoke only to confirm her name. | :10:56. | :10:59. | |
Rebecca Leighton is charged with three counts of criminal damage | :10:59. | :11:02. | |
with intent to endanger life, and faces three other charges, | :11:02. | :11:06. | |
including theft. The former Labour MP, Jim Devine, | :11:06. | :11:10. | |
seen here on the right, has been released from prison after serving | :11:10. | :11:15. | |
a quarter of his 16 months sentence for expenses fraud. He was jailed | :11:15. | :11:19. | |
after submitting false invoices for more than �8,000. | :11:19. | :11:21. | |
An 18-year-old man from the Shetland Islands has appeared in | :11:21. | :11:27. | |
court, facing a string of computer hacking charges. Jake Davis was | :11:27. | :11:32. | |
arrested by the Met's e-crime unit as part of an investigation into | :11:32. | :11:37. | |
hacking groups Annonymous, and LulzSec. He was released on bail. | :11:37. | :11:41. | |
The European Union has announced further sanctions against Syria, | :11:41. | :11:45. | |
freezing assets and imposing travel bans on people it blames for the | :11:45. | :11:51. | |
bloody crackdown on dissent. Russia has added its voice to the | :11:51. | :11:55. | |
international condemnation, saying the use of force against residents | :11:55. | :12:00. | |
must be stopped. Violence was reported in several cities in Syria, | :12:00. | :12:04. | |
with human rights activists claiming dozens were killed in the | :12:04. | :12:09. | |
opposition controlled Hama. Journalists are restricted from | :12:09. | :12:13. | |
operating freely inside Syria, so Jim Muir sent this report from | :12:13. | :12:17. | |
Beirut. It was Army Day in Syria, a chance | :12:17. | :12:27. | |
:12:27. | :12:30. | ||
for President Bashar al-Assad to thank his country -- his army. And | :12:30. | :12:40. | |
:12:40. | :12:41. | ||
Almost every day, there are military funerals. Today, at least | :12:41. | :12:49. | |
half-a-dozen, killed in yesterday's clashes. Up in Hama, the army's | :12:49. | :12:54. | |
role is not seen as so heroic. These are some of the tanks the | :12:54. | :13:00. | |
government says never went into the city. Tank shells, machine guns and | :13:00. | :13:06. | |
sniping claimed scores of civilian lives, according to activists. It | :13:06. | :13:10. | |
was one of the bloodiest days since the uprising began more than four | :13:10. | :13:15. | |
months ago. It stirred widespread international condemnation. We were | :13:15. | :13:18. | |
extremely shocked and appalled by what happened in Hama yesterday. | :13:18. | :13:21. | |
There has never been any justification for what has been | :13:21. | :13:25. | |
going on, you cannot justify attacking civilians who are | :13:25. | :13:28. | |
exercising their right to democratic process. We have | :13:28. | :13:33. | |
condemned it in the strongest possible terms. Most of Hama seems | :13:33. | :13:38. | |
to be against the regime. It has had the biggest protest rallies | :13:38. | :13:42. | |
anywhere. For the past month, the city has been virtually taken over | :13:42. | :13:47. | |
by its own people. That is why the regime felt it had to try to take | :13:47. | :13:52. | |
it back. And will surely try again. Civilians are in danger, but they | :13:52. | :14:00. | |
say they don't want outside intervention. No, not at all. We | :14:00. | :14:05. | |
refuse all military interference. We need political support for our | :14:05. | :14:13. | |
opinions. We will continue our peaceful uprising. Even if they | :14:13. | :14:19. | |
shoot us and kill us, we will not use weapons. It is in the | :14:19. | :14:21. | |
international arena that part of the battle is now being waged. | :14:21. | :14:25. | |
Syrian nationals living abroad have been staging rallies for and | :14:25. | :14:29. | |
against the government. The European Union is preparing to | :14:29. | :14:33. | |
announce more punitive economic sanctions, and there is growing | :14:33. | :14:37. | |
pressure for a UN Security Council meeting to condemn the Syrian | :14:37. | :14:42. | |
regime. China, Russia and others are against, although Moscow has | :14:42. | :14:47. | |
said the violence against civilians must stop. They were put off by the | :14:47. | :14:52. | |
messy NATO operation in Libya. Syrian people are paying the price | :14:52. | :14:59. | |
for what is perceived as an end less intervention in Libya. And so, | :14:59. | :15:03. | |
China and Russia, and these countries say, we are not signing | :15:03. | :15:09. | |
up again. But the problem is, by refusing to act, they are allowing | :15:09. | :15:13. | |
the massacres to continue, so the Syrian people are paying for the | :15:13. | :15:19. | |
mistakes being made in Libya. upshot is that President Bashar al- | :15:19. | :15:23. | |
Assad does not have to worry about international intervention. The | :15:23. | :15:27. | |
diplomatic and economic pressures might have a cumulative effect, but | :15:27. | :15:33. | |
that is in the long run. Four-and- a-half months on, the uprising | :15:33. | :15:37. | |
shows no signs of petering out. The demise of this entrenched and | :15:37. | :15:47. | |
:15:47. | :15:49. | ||
ruthless regime is far from sure, In Egypt, troops have clashed with | :15:49. | :15:55. | |
protesters in Tahrir Square. Troops dismantled the demonstrators tents. | :15:55. | :16:02. | |
The demonstrators have been pressing for faster change in Egypt. | :16:02. | :16:08. | |
It is 16 minutes past 6. Our top story: America's politicians are | :16:08. | :16:12. | |
preparing to vote on a last minute deal to stop the country defaulting | :16:12. | :16:19. | |
on its debts. And coming up: Even Sachin Tendulkar can't stop England, | :16:19. | :16:27. | |
as they sweep India aside at Trent Bridge. Alcoholic liver disease in | :16:27. | :16:30. | |
the under 30s has risen by half in the last ten years according to | :16:30. | :16:33. | |
official figures. Doctors are warning of the growing impact of | :16:33. | :16:35. | |
alcohol on young people's health after the findings suggest a | :16:35. | :16:39. | |
quarter of the population drinks too much. Richard Bilton has been | :16:39. | :16:49. | |
:16:49. | :16:50. | ||
given rare access to the patients and staff at one hospital. This is | :16:50. | :16:56. | |
Vicker to ya, she is only 35 and she is yellow because her liver is | :16:56. | :17:02. | |
failling. -- failing. You're just selfish through drink, as long as | :17:02. | :17:07. | |
you're all right, you just don't care. It's just ruined by this | :17:07. | :17:12. | |
substance that I pour into me body. She is in Liverpool's Royal | :17:12. | :17:18. | |
Hospital and Paul Richardson is her doctor. He is worried about her | :17:18. | :17:24. | |
condition. She is still tearful? takes Victoria's mum for chat. Off | :17:24. | :17:30. | |
cam ra, she is told her daughter is getting worse. She might not make | :17:30. | :17:36. | |
it. She is a lot worse. Some of the treatment might see some | :17:36. | :17:41. | |
improvement in the kidneys, but I'm very concerned about her this time. | :17:41. | :17:46. | |
There have been better days, Victoria has two children and her | :17:46. | :17:52. | |
own home. But her mum says drink has thaefr never been -- has never | :17:52. | :17:57. | |
been far away. When she was 16, she started lying, saying she hadn't 45 | :17:57. | :18:03. | |
a drink, but you could tell. doctor says they see more and more | :18:03. | :18:09. | |
young people with alcohol-related disease and they are concerned. | :18:09. | :18:14. | |
We're seeing people as young as in their 20s dying of alcoholic liver | :18:14. | :18:21. | |
disease. That was just not seen 30 years ago. Alcohol consumption is | :18:21. | :18:26. | |
falling, but in hospitals, alcohol- related admissions continue to soar. | :18:26. | :18:30. | |
Last year for the first time there were more Nan a million. Alcohol | :18:30. | :18:35. | |
admissions have double 234 a decade. Here they say it is no longer just | :18:35. | :18:42. | |
accident and emergency, alcohol is an issue in every ward. Nationally, | :18:42. | :18:45. | |
campaigners want controls on pricing and the availability of | :18:45. | :18:50. | |
alcohol. They say the drinks industry has too much influence. | :18:50. | :18:55. | |
The Government's alcohol strategy is expected later this year. | :18:55. | :19:00. | |
costing the NHS about �2.8 billion a year and about nine million | :19:00. | :19:05. | |
people are affected by the harms that alcohol causes. So it is a big | :19:05. | :19:12. | |
problem. Back in the Liverpool and Victoria's made a recovery and she | :19:12. | :19:18. | |
is out of danger. But liver disease is now country's fifth biggest | :19:18. | :19:24. | |
killer whra. Use 20 kill -- what used to kill the old, now threatens | :19:24. | :19:32. | |
the young. You can see Panorama tonight on BBC1 at 8.30. Britain's | :19:32. | :19:35. | |
leading business group has cut its forecast for UK growth this year | :19:35. | :19:37. | |
due to weak business investment and the squeeze on household income. | :19:37. | :19:41. | |
The CBI estimates the UK economy will grow by just 1.3% over the | :19:41. | :19:48. | |
whole of 2011. It said that despite firms having plenty of cash, they | :19:48. | :19:56. | |
are reluctant to spend due to concerns over eurozone and US debt. | :19:56. | :20:00. | |
A memorial has taken place in the Norwegian Parliament to commemorate | :20:00. | :20:06. | |
those who died in the bombings and shootings ten days ago. The Prime | :20:06. | :20:11. | |
Minister warned against a witch- hunt, saying all of us have | :20:11. | :20:20. | |
something to learn. A shrine to the fallen. So many flowers and candles | :20:20. | :20:24. | |
now surround the cathedral that other memorials have sprung up | :20:25. | :20:34. | |
:20:35. | :20:38. | ||
around Norway's capital. Today at the Parliament, the king and crown | :20:38. | :20:45. | |
prince led a memorial for each of Anders Behring Breivik's 77 victims. | :20:45. | :20:49. | |
As relatives of those kwho died watched, the Prime Minister said | :20:49. | :20:56. | |
all of Norway has he sons -- has lessons to learn. TRANSLATION: I | :20:56. | :21:00. | |
ask that we do not start a witch- hunt. The unity we have shown | :21:00. | :21:05. | |
during these unreal days calls for continued generosity. We all have | :21:05. | :21:14. | |
something to learn from the tragedy. It was perhaps the most unusual | :21:14. | :21:22. | |
meeting in the Parliament's 197- year history. The music replacing | :21:22. | :21:29. | |
political argument. Outside, the flag flies at half-mast, some of | :21:29. | :21:34. | |
Anders Behring Breivik's victims still lie in hospital. At the scene | :21:34. | :21:38. | |
of the bomb attack, 9,000 workers unable to return to their office | :21:38. | :21:44. | |
and have been told to extend their summer holidays until the clear up | :21:44. | :21:51. | |
is complete. The father of singer Amy Winehouse has meat a Home | :21:51. | :21:56. | |
Office minister to discuss plans to set up a drug rehabilitation centre | :21:56. | :22:02. | |
in his daughter's name. Mitch said he wanted to help addict s who | :22:02. | :22:06. | |
couldn't afford private treatment. They're not just sitting on the way | :22:06. | :22:11. | |
things were, things will change and we will have more meetings with the | :22:11. | :22:17. | |
department and we're going to get it through to as many people as we | :22:17. | :22:23. | |
can. Some BBC journalists are take part in a second 24 hour strike. | :22:23. | :22:29. | |
Members of national union of journalists walked out in a dispute | :22:29. | :22:35. | |
over compulsory redundancies. At the heart of the strike, job losses | :22:35. | :22:44. | |
at the BBC. Out of 400 post closures, 100 people are being made | :22:44. | :22:50. | |
forcibly redundant. 43 of them left the BBC today. Journalists at BBC | :22:51. | :22:56. | |
centres walked out at midnight. The union says the BBC's big enough to | :22:56. | :23:03. | |
find other jobs. The BBC's being particularly intransigent and | :23:03. | :23:08. | |
treating individual members of staff here unfairly, forcing them | :23:08. | :23:13. | |
out, sacrificing their livelihoods when there are plenty of jobs | :23:13. | :23:22. | |
within the BBC. It is Monday 1 ust August. -- 1st August. As managers | :23:22. | :23:28. | |
put out a reduced news service, the BBC said its position won't change. | :23:28. | :23:33. | |
The reality is like many other organisations facing these cuts, it | :23:33. | :23:37. | |
is not possible to absorb all the people into the organisation. | :23:37. | :23:41. | |
journalists around the country have worries beyond the world service. | :23:41. | :23:46. | |
The licence fee has been frozen and the BBC is looking for deep cuts to | :23:46. | :23:55. | |
keep itself afloat. And that means hundreds more jobs will go. Cricket | :23:55. | :24:02. | |
and England have won the second Test against India. In front of a | :24:02. | :24:09. | |
packed house, England reached 54 4- 4 out before skitling India ought | :24:09. | :24:17. | |
for 158. They now have a 2-0 lead in the series. It is the match that | :24:17. | :24:27. | |
:24:27. | :24:27. | ||
just keeps giving. Fans knew they weren't disappointed. With Bresnan | :24:27. | :24:33. | |
hitting boundaries England never lost moment tum. Bresnan and Broad | :24:33. | :24:40. | |
piled on the runs and set a target of 478. Then they terrorised them | :24:40. | :24:50. | |
with the ball. Broad got the early kibgt of Dravid. -- wicked of | :24:50. | :24:57. | |
Dravid. India were running out of ideas. Bats were being used in self | :24:57. | :25:07. | |
:25:07. | :25:10. | ||
defence and that didn't work. Bresnan enjoying his work. Then the | :25:10. | :25:19. | |
best, from Bresnan, two wickets in two balls. First Singh. Then they | :25:19. | :25:24. | |
waved the whiegt flag. Only Sachin Tendulkar showed any staying power | :25:24. | :25:30. | |
at 50. But Anderson 1207 him. Then a moment a 21-year-old will never | :25:30. | :25:36. | |
forget. Bresnan bouncing and the 12 man catching - just. Smiles of | :25:36. | :25:41. | |
relief allowing a Yorkshireman to bask in the moment. The world's No | :25:41. | :25:50. | |
1 side a shadow of their former selfs. Anderson and Broad finishing | :25:50. | :25:56. | |
the victory. The weather has been a the victory. The weather has been a | :25:56. | :26:00. | |
winner too. More now with Darren. It has been a scorcher for some of | :26:00. | :26:06. | |
us. 28 degrees in London today. Temperature will climb to around 30 | :26:06. | :26:11. | |
on Wednesday and then the roller coasts goes down and temperatures | :26:11. | :26:17. | |
plummet. 28 in London, because of the sunshine and this continental | :26:17. | :26:22. | |
feed. Different air in Glasgow and even some rain. 17 here. In between | :26:22. | :26:32. | |
the cloud is the main focus of the rain. It will remain warm and lieu | :26:32. | :26:37. | |
mid. Sunshine in the east. But in the west rain developing, turning | :26:37. | :26:42. | |
heavy in Scotland. Rain in Wales and the South West and edging into | :26:42. | :26:46. | |
the Midlands. A lot of cloud around tonight. Temperatures like last | :26:46. | :26:51. | |
night, 16 or 17 degrees. Quite uncomfortable. Tomorrow we start | :26:51. | :26:55. | |
with rain in the east of Scotland. This could be heavy and thundery. | :26:55. | :27:02. | |
The west should be crier -- drier. The rain spreads to the west of | :27:03. | :27:08. | |
England. Sunshine in the south-east. But a few showers, very hit and | :27:08. | :27:13. | |
miss, through the Midlands. For the South West, the rain should have | :27:13. | :27:19. | |
gone, but it is still cloudy in the morning. Misty and some hills and | :27:19. | :27:25. | |
coasts. A similar story in Wales. Across Northern Ireland, missing | :27:25. | :27:30. | |
most of the rain and it should be dry first thing. Again cloudy skies | :27:30. | :27:35. | |
and misty. But what we will find is this rain band in the north edges | :27:35. | :27:39. | |
to the coast and out into the north Sea and then sunshine comes through | :27:39. | :27:44. | |
and that triggers the odd shower. But very hit and miss. Some places | :27:44. | :27:51. | |
will be dry. It should be warmer in the west. The real heat is across | :27:51. | :27:56. | |
the south-east, East Anglia and the Midlands. 29 degrees in London. But | :27:56. | :28:00. | |
warmer in Glasgow by four degrees. As we led into Wednesday, we start | :28:00. | :28:06. | |
dry, but then as the heat builds, showers develop. Then rain edges | :28:06. | :28:09. | |
into Northern Ireland and the south-west. But Wednesday will be | :28:09. | :28:13. | |
the hottest day of the week. It will be warmer for all of us, | :28:13. | :28:18. | |
temperatures hitting 30 degrees in the south-east. Thipbt changes. | :28:18. | :28:23. | |
Thursday we see rain that will push away that heat. And then it will | :28:23. | :28:33. |
